As the Christian world celebrates Christmas, and as Christians in Palestine and in Israel celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ in Bethlehem, the Chief Rabbinate in Israel recommended that hotels and restaurants in the country should refrain from displaying Christian symbols.

Some highlights from the article:

The Rabbinical “Lobby for Jewish Values” started recently a campaign targeting restaurants and hotels that decorated their buildings for Christmas, and its chairman, Ofer Cohen, said that the lobby is considering a boycott campaign against these businesses.
The lobby raises the issue every year around Christmas in an attempt to stop entrainment places from displaying Christian festivities, while this year a source at the council said that businesses that refuse to comply could have the Kashrut certificate revoked.

Following the complaints, Oded Weiner, director-general of the Chief Rabbinate, received a call from Israel’s Foreign Ministry, and said that this issue is only a recommendation to the hotels and restaurants. But he also said that although this is a non-binding proposal, and although it is improper not to display Christian symbols, yet “such symbols could offend members of other faiths”.

Some glaring things from this alarming news:

a) No major MSM reported this. Now one has to ask why is that?

b) What's next arm badges for Christians with cross in it to identify them as Christians?

c) Offend what faiths? Jewish faiths as it is being raised by (Lobby for Jewish Value) or Zionist faith hiding under cloak of Jewish faith? Is the faith not offended when funds are given every year by the same Christian and other religion hard earned tax payer's money from US & UK?

d)Cool so now they re suggesting anyone displaying Christian signs may be boycotted? Tell you what boycott is coming right...but not to people who want t express their religion but to apartheid country who are using nazi policies.

Just wondering where you got the idea that Christians said Israel would not do this. As a western Christian myself, I've never heard that. It changes nothing as far as I am concerned. Israel is still God's chosen people. May the Lord bless Israel! When all nations have turned against her, He himself will defend her.
