Argggh, looks like you were posting while I was formatting!

these words are not something you would expect to hear from a Palestinian,

If you wouldn't expect them, it's because you watch too much TV.

There are lots of Christian Palestinians.

Furthermore, Palestinians in general (Christian or not) are not hostile to Israel.

As always, a radical element thrives of media attention and vice versa.

Indeed there are a lot of Christian Palestinians. Worldwide about 30% of Arabs with ancestors in what is now Israel and the occupied territories are Christians. Alas, due to persecution by their Muslim neighbors, the percentage of Christians among the Arabs in the Holy Land is now down to between 1% and 3%.

Nope, sorry. Persecution increases the number of Christians.

In reality, a large percentage of Arab-Americans are Christians, such as from Lebanon. The press doesn’t want you to know that, however. While God be praised that this man came to Christ, the sad fact is, that the libs will now view him as a greater threat to the West than when he was a Muslim.

“Furthermore, Palestinians in general (Christian or not) are not hostile to Israel.”

Not my experience.

Indeed, while I think this is changing (for the better), Christian Arabs have generally sided with muslims arabs against Israel.

Would it were so that that ancient dynamic were at work in the Holy Land. The facts on the ground tell a different story: the Christians not just of the Holy Land, but of Lebanon, Jordan, Syria, Iraq, . . . are leaving for America or a white Commonwealth country in droves.

The Fathers of the Church advised fleeing persecution, rather than seeking martyrdom, because in flight those of weak faith might yet be saved, while the trial of martyrdom might prove too hard for some, and that advice is being heeded.

I strongly disagree, whether we're talking about Muslims or Christians.

“Furthermore, Palestinians in general (Christian or not) are not hostile to Israel. As always, a radical element thrives of media attention and vice versa.”

Hamas won big on the platform of unbending hostility against Israel. Regardless of their poor management of Gaza, and increased population suffering, I’d predict that they’d win big again, if election were held today.

The “radical element” may not be 100% of course, but its not a 10-20, its a majority.
