when I read your articel Mr Danil I was shocked it seemes like you know the city very well.

let me tell you how bethlehem is and was!!!

bethlehem is a city that most of its land is stolen first to bilud three iligle setelments starting with gilo and harkhoma and har gilo.... lately another part of bethlehem is being taken which is almost 25% of bethlehem area to build a big wall that you could check on the net if you only put the wall in Palestine, the land that is being taken is christian people land which part of it is my familys land where we plant and eat from....

bethlehem area is place where 40% christians and 60% moslems live together since the 8th century AC

and it is for the first time that land have been stolen from christians since then in the city, as for the insedent of 2002 in which 80 fighters where ran away from more than 40 isreali tanks and some tousends of the isreali soldures they had to run to the church of the nativity that is the only place where isreal will respect not to shoot at or at least that is what they believed, two of them where killed in the church by isreali snipers thier blod spelled in the church of the nativity the couldnt get out for more than 45 day surounded by the Isreali tanks the priests and the nuns where the ones that took care of the fighters of bethlehem the people of bethlehem they gave them food and drink, the setuation in bethlehem was unbearable for 45 days where were not aloud to get out of our houses it was a carefew on everybody.....

everybody who visited or will visite bethlehem will know the reality of bethlehem and all of you are welcome to...... I am a believer in peace a peace that cover everybody ocupide people from all fractions from left to right as well as isreali fraction from right to left.... violence brings only violence back and stealing land bring extreemest.

thank you
