About 25 percent of Palestinians are Christian

I've posted about the lack of Christians among the "Palestinians" here in the past, and how if it were "Palestinians" rather than Muslims who objected to Israel's existance, then we would have had a few Christian suicide bombers by now.

But Prager gets his figures wrong. The Muslims have made life uncomfortable for the Christians too. They probably don not constitute more than 2% of the "Palestinian" population today.

There have been Christian Arabs since before Muhammad, particularly outside Arabia itself. Some of these now live in "Palestine". That's about all there is to that.

It's absurd to compare them to the ideological "Palestinians" just because they happen to be "racially" similar.

Palestinian "christians" like Habash and Ashrawi and others are socialist/Communists and have been in the vanguard of terror and anti Israel action over the years. In other words Communists and Islamicists have been in bed for years and are even more so today.
