“Who will have pity on you, O Jerusalem, or who will grieve for you? Who will turn aside to ask about your welfare?" Jeremiah 15:5... "Pray for the peace of Jerusalem ~ Sha'alu Shalom Yerushalayim...." May they prosper who love you." Psalm 122:6

In what can only be described as a celebration of violence and death, young Palestinian children, days ago, participated in a Bethlehem parade by dressing up as armed terrorists complete with mock suicide belts. The parade marked the 51st anniversary of the first terrorist attack by Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas’ Fatah movement, and was attended by several high ranking Palestinian Authority officials. PM Netanyahu’s official spokesman to the Arab media, called the event a glorification of terrorism aimed at encouraging a new generation of Palestinian youth to join the violence. While the Bethlehem-based Palestinian news agency Ma’an covered the parade extensively on its Arabic-language website, the story was completely missing from its English-language website, which is widely followed by the international press. Yet another example of the Palestinians sending out completely different messages in Arabic and English, just as the parade itself was further evidence that Israel has no Palestinian peace partner at the governmental level.
