Two Palestinian Arabs have been arrested by Palestinian Authority (PA) Security Forces, after they set a Christmas tree on fire in the Arab Christian majority town of Zababdeh near Jenin in Samaria.

What is “price tag” vandalism the article refers to?
From Wikipedia
Price tag policy (Hebrew: ×ž×“×™× ×™×•×ª תג מחיר), also known as “Mutual Responsibility” (Arvut Hadadit),[1] also referred to as a “tactic”,[2] “strategy”,[3] “doctrine”,[4] “campaign”,[5] or “principle”,[6] is the name originally[7][8] given to acts of vandalism aimed at the Palestinian population, Christians, left-wing Israeli Jews,[9] Arab-Israelis, and the Israel Defense Forces and Israeli police[10][11][12] by Jewish fundamentalist settler youths[13] who “exact a price from local Palestinians or from the Israeli security forces for any action taken against their settlement enterprise”, according to the New York Times.[14][15][16] Price tag attacks now extend to acts of vandalism, and especially to acts of anti-Arab vandalism,[17] suspected to be the work of lone individuals, against the Israeli army and security services, as well as against Christian and Muslim places of worship, and also against left-wing institutions that criticize settlers.[18][19] [20]In May 2014, Shin Bet said the price-tag hate crimes were the handiwork of about 100 individuals mainly hailing from the Yitzhar settlement and hilltop outposts, and were inspired by the ideas of rabbi Yitzchak Ginsburg.[21]
At least they acknowledged it as a “Christmas Tree”. Around most people don’t have enough common sense to recognize an evergreen tree covered in Christmas lights and decorations as being a Christmas tree. The libtards around here strip it of its dignity by calling it a “holiday tree”, without naming which holiday they mean. I don’t know which action is worse.
No kidding.
most libtards dont mind using the word holiday...apparently not being either aware of or concerned with the fact that Holiday refers to HOLY DAY.
