Every Christmas Palestine celebrates the birth of one of its own, Jesus Christ. A resident of Palestine, as each Palestinian is.
He lived under Occupation, as each Palestinian does.
Palestinians, continue to yearn for justice and peace in the Holy Land and, this year, their hope is renewed as they*prepare to receive his Pope Francis I.

Neither Jesus nor the Romans----who were the fore-runners of todays ' Isa-respecters---
referred to the place where jesus lived as "palestine". The romans referred to the
whole area as JUDEA ------and Jesus and his countrymen called part of it "JUDEA"
and part of it "ISRAEL" Interestingly-----Jesus was by lineage a JUDEAN-----
but was born in Israel. For the purpose of a census-----ordered by the ROMAN FORERUNNERS OF THE ISA_RESPECTERS who iimposed genocide upon the middle east and ultimately the world -------The family of Jesus traveled to JUDEA and more specifically to the ancestral town of Joseph-----bethlehem-----birth place of DAVID---one
of the most famous of the JUDEAN KINGS. Thus at the time of his birth-----Jesus is
clearly----IN THE NEW TESTAMENT ----designated "YEHUDI" to wit 'JEW".
The Palestine of HERODOTUS----includes----syria -----where even today ---isa-respecters
are doing what isa-respecters do-----slaughtering babies in the name of isa/allah
because ----after the babylonian exile----circa 500 BC around the time of
Herodotus-----Israel and Judea merged and the whole became "the kingdom of
Judea"------people of that land came to all be called "jews" ----as a kind of short-
hand for the people whose progenitors are ABRAHAM>>> ISAAC>>>>
JACOB. Jacob designated his fourth son JUDAH (YEHUDA) as the progenitor
of the "royal line" The first son---REUVEN---was a nice guy but ---not good
enough Second and third SHIMON AND LEVI----were----somewhat jerky and
prone to violence and stupidity-----so JUDAH got it. HOWEVER----Levi became
the progenitor of the priests and levites. Moses was a LEVITE (LEVI) got that
now sherri? The Levites (that includes levites and priests) have no
ancestral land in either Israel or Judea. They are on a kind of public
payroll ----sorta. Got that sherri? see? its not so hard
Aren't you glad to know that Jesus was ------not only a jew in his time-----
but -----for any time in the long history of zionism -----he would have been
designated YEHUDI by virtue of being a descendant of Jacab's fourth
son -----------Bethlehem is in the ancestral land of YEHUDAH's descendants. ----
David had quite a journey to get to the place where he knocked off GOLIATH
