"The Arab Christians are represented by the Arab Catholic Church , by the Arab Orhtodox Church, the ArabLutherans, the Arab Anglicans, and many others(please visit http://www.al- bushra.org to find out about the Christians of the Holy Land). Those Churches have said and repeated that they are not and were not persecuted in any way by P.A., on the contrary they are very respected and many of their people are part of the P.A intself."
