Sheikh and Priest - Bethlehem

Bethlehem

Palestinians Sheikh Tayser Rajab Bayoud Tamimi and Priest Jacob Abu Sa'ada protest along with 450 other Palestinians and foreigners against the occupation and the security wall surrounding Bethlehem Friday Dec 30 2005. Sheikh Tamimi is the Head of the High Legal Court and the Head of the Supreme Council for Religious Adjudication in Palestine. Priest Abu Sa'ada is the Melkite Priest for Bethlehem. The peaceful protest came at the end of a four day international conference on nonviolence held in Bethlehem Dec 27-30 2005. The role of religion in nonviolent Palestinian resistance was a prominent theme.

Raphael, your comment below reminds us once again that denial is not just a river in Egypt!

"Palestinian non-violent resistance"?
That's the oxymoron of the century.
Want to hear another lie? The Palestinian people are a real nation...
