You forgot to mention how Israel persecutes Palestinian Christians. Arafat's wife is a Catholic Palestinian.

Arafat's wife is a phony vacuous "Christian". A prop for Arafat's propaganda to elicit Christian sympathy. On the other hand, I know very well how Islam has treated Eastern Christians. Nearly destroyed Eastern Christianity. Islam dhimmized Christians for centuries, massacred them, forcefully converted them. The Christian population in East Jerusalem under Islamic Jordanian control was refuced in half between 1948-67. Pan-Arab Islam has been the PERSECUTOR par-excellence of EASTERN CHRISTIANS. Ask a Maronite Christian one of these days what he thinks of the PLO and Arafat.

Being descended from Spaniards that fought the Moors for 700 years I know full well how the Muslims treat Christians. But that doesn't change the fact of how Israel treats its Christians.

When Israel gives its Christian minority the same legal equality that the Jewish minorities have in Christian countries I may change my mind about Israel.

When Israel gives Arabs the same equality that blacks get in white majority coutries then I may change my mind about Israel.
