Last month, Israel’s Knesset took the first important step toward recognizing local Christians as an independent minority separate from the Arab Muslims. Both Nadaf and Khalloul say this is necessary, since local Christians were here before the Arab Muslim conquest around 600 AD.

So it took SIXTY-SEVEN YEARS for the Knesset to deal with this? It may be a step in the right direction, but is would appear to be a VERY SLOW step.

While I agree that Christians are treated better in Israel than in other Arab countries, what has happened since Israeli independence is a migration of Christian Arabs to the US, Canada, Central America, Ecuador and other nations. Bethlehem used to be mostly Christian and now it is mostly Muslim. The Christians have left.
