Israeli Mayor Bans Christmas Trees
Source: http://www.theatlanticwire.com/global/2 ... c.facebook
The mayor of Nazareth Illit, an Israeli town with an Arab Christian minority, has declared a ban on the public display of Christmas trees. "Nazareth Illit is a Jewish city and it will not happen--not this year and not next year, so long as I am a mayor," Mayor Shimon Gapso said. Arab Christians, who make up about 7 percent of the town's 40,000 residents, were denied their request to put up Christmas trees in their neighborhoods. The Agence France-Presse reports that the community is not happy:
His decision angered the town's Arab and Christian minority, who accused him of racism. "The racism of not putting a tree up is nothing compared to the real racism that we experience here," said Aziz Dahdal, a 35-year-old Christian resident of Nazareth Illit.
"When we asked the mayor to put up a Christmas tree in the Arab neighbourhoods of Nazareth Illit he said this is a Jewish town, not a mixed town," said Shukri Awawdeh, a Muslim Arab member of the town council. ... "We told him that decorating a tree is just to share the happiness and cheer with other people in the town," said Awawdeh.
Nazareth Illit is a suburb of Nazareth, which as the childhood home of Jesus Christ is an important center of Christian history and is about one-third Christian today. Journalist Nir Rosen wonders how Fox News, which has a tendency to defend Israel but also a love of fighting what it calls "the war on Christmas," would handle this story.

I agree with the mayor, Israel is a Jewish state. The Palestinians should go live with their brothers in Jordan

Disgusting. Absolutely disgusting. Israel is 100X worse than South Africa under apartheid and Germany under the Third Reich.

"A couple of past quotes from Mayor Gafsou (I think that’s the way he spells it):
“I always told my soldiers in the army that it is easier for me to explain why I shot an innocent person than to explain to one of your wives why I did not protect you enough.”
“Upper Nazareth is a Jewish town … There will never be a mosque … No school for Arabs … I will not allow Christians to light Christmas trees … Upper Nazareth will be 95% Jewish by 2020.”
I wonder how his corruption trial is going?" link to haaretz.com http://www.haaretz.com/print-edition/ne ... e-1.333448
