Bush prays in Bethlehem amid sea of barricades

"Bethlehem's own mayor Victor Batarseh was not invited to the ceremony because he is a member of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), which the US State Department considers a terror organisation."

It's interesting how Christians (the lovers of Christ) places the security and interests of Jews (the haters of Christ) above the security and interests of their own. Even as he drives along the humiliating road-blocks and checkpoints, it probably never occurs to "Born Again Christan" Bush that his Christian brethren are also murdered, starved, and brutalized behind the apartheid wall. This is evidenced by the fact that the PFLP, a Christian organization is branded "terrorist" because it resists Israeli occupation.
