Bethlehem Mayor Describes Christian Emigration
(Jerusalem Post) - Bethlehem Mayor Hanna Nasser told the Jerusalem Post more than 1,000 people, mostly Christians, have left Bethlehem and surrounding towns in the past few weeks. "More than 1,000 people have emigrated to the U.S., Canada, Australia, and even Latin America after they lost everything," Nasser said. "These are people who have friends and relatives there and they tell them to come and live with them. If the economy continues to deteriorate, we will see more emigration."
