Israeli Prime Minister's Christmas Greeting


(Prime Minister's Office) Prime Minister Netanyahu issued the following statement Sunday: "As Christians around the world and in Israel prepare to celebrate Christmas, I want to wish you all the merriest of holidays. Today, Christian communities throughout the Middle East are shrinking, and many of them are endangered. This is, of course, not true in Israel. Here there is a strong and growing Christian community that participates fully in the life of our country." "Israel is proud of its record of religious tolerance and pluralism, and Israel will continue to protect freedom of religion for all. And we will continue to safeguard places of Christian worship throughout our country. We will not tolerate any acts of violence or discrimination against any place of worship."
