The Palestinian "Holy Trinity": Jesus, Arafat and Abbas
(Palestinian Media Watch) Itamar Marcus and Nan Jacques Zilberdik - The Palestinian leadership's falsification of history by presenting Jesus as an ancient Palestinian increased as Christmas approached this year. The PA official daily Al-Hayat Al-Jadida on Dec. 24 reported the governor of the Ramallah district Leila Ghannam saying: "We all have the right to be proud that Jesus is a Palestinian." Palestinian historian Khalil Shoka told Fatah TV on Dec. 16: "In the final analysis, Jesus the Messiah is a Palestinian." Sheikh Muhammad Hussein, Mufti of Jerusalem and the Palestinian territories, said on Fatah TV on Nov. 30: "Jesus is a Palestinian par excellence." An editorial in Al-Hayat Al-Jadida on Nov. 30 referred to Arafat, Jesus and Abbas as the Palestinian "holy Trinity."
