Once a Christian stronghold, Christians are now a minority in the region due to persecution, emigration and low birth rates

City officials in the birthplace of Jesus Christ are tearing down Christmas decorations in solidarity with Palestinians amid Israel's continued invasion of Gaza.

Bethlehem, an ancient city located in the West Bank, declared via social media and official spokespeople that decorations installed in previous years are being removed amid the conflict between Israel and Hamas.

"Bethlehem Municipality crews announced the dismantling of Christmas decorations installed several years ago in the city's neighborhoods and removing all festive appearances in honor of the martyrs and in solidarity with our people in Gaza," the city wrote on Facebook, according to the Jerusalem Post.

“I believe we have seen this before.”

We have seen this many times before. In formerly Christian Lebanon and most recently in Ukraine.

Cultural annihilation in the service of corrupted and evil tyrants.

Bethlehem Municipality: "...in honor of the martyrs and in solidarity with our people in Gaza..."

Regardless of our stupid politicians and corrupt media, Israel knows it has a bigger problem than just Gaza. Ha, right, "two-state solution".

It's about both.

All Religion must be the Muslim Cult, and all Land must be Muslim Land.

There must be nothing else.

Exactly. Like the Jews really care about Jesus' birthplace.
