Yes. Are you accusing the Franciscans? Or are you accusing them of suffering from Stockholm Syndrome after two weeks?

I'm not accusing anybody but the PLO but if you think that these are in there because they want to be in the good company of these terrorists then I'm afraid you're seriously mistaken.

No! No, you are the one who is sadly, sadly mistaken. The Franciscans have guarded this site with their lives for 800 years ever since St. Francis came to the Holy Land. They will never leave of their own free will. They will fulfill their mission to serve Christ and protect his birthplace no matter what.
