(HonestReporting.com) - The Palestinian takeover of the Church of the Nativity was planned and premeditated. According to senior Tanzim commander Abdullah Abu-Hadid, as reported in Yediot Ahronot on May 24, "The idea was to enter the church in order to create international pressure on Israel....We knew beforehand that there was two years' worth of food for 50 monks. Oil, beans, rice, olives. Good bathrooms and the largest wells in old Bethlehem. You didn't need electricity because there were candles. In the yard they planted vegetables. Everything was there." There was nothing noble or sacred about the Palestinian seizure of the Church of the Nativity. It was a premeditated act of sacrilege. 2002-05-30 00:00:00Full Article
