JERUSALEM -- The leadership of a West Bank Palestinian city now controlled by Hamas has warned a local Young Men's Christian Association to close its offices and leave town or face likely Muslim violence, WorldNetDaily has learned.

I had no idea that any Christians or Jews would stay... i appreciate whatever humanitarian mission they may be on but that's about to be a war zone.
You have to question the sanity of any non-Muslim who would live in the monkey cage.
This has been building up. The Muslims have blamed Israel and the Christians have parroted that line, hoping they would not be persecuted if they did. But they must know deep down the Islamists don't want Christians there either. And it is starting to come to a boil, because nearly everyone appeases them instead of confronting them. Killing off the killers isn't enough. "Liberals" should be insisting on freedom of expression - including religious expression. But liberals don't like religion anyway, and besides who are we to tell "them" what to believe - even though "they" include people suffering under a radical dogmatic leadership.
All I can say is I have a vision of the future-guns loaded and bibles packed closely near by. We are going to be taking quite a ride-I pray it will turn out well-I believe it will, but it is going to be bloody, very very bloody. I hope I am wrong or do I?

It's *been* a war zone. It's *about to be* a squalid, third-world Middle Eastern "nation."
