I have read other articles about the Palestinian Christians siding with the Muslims. It probably is Stockholm Syndrome.

Well, they're the ones that live there, maybe naming the source of their trouble as they see it. But it is sure a lot safer to criticize Israel than it is to criticize Hamas, or Islam, or Jihadism.

A Wall Street Journal article this week mentioned that when Moslem terrorists in Iraq find out about Iraqis living in the US they hold their Iraqi relatives for ransom and threaten to kill them unless they come up with tens of thousands. And otherwise it's torture.

It's not Stockholm Syndrome, it's the culture. I have Christian friends of Arab descent living here (the family has been here for four generations) who have roots in the Middle East. The disgust with Jews is strong and my friends have nothing to fear from terrorists or retaliation. It's just how it is.
