Palestinian Authority can never be responsible for Christian Holy Places

Dear Mr.Pipes,
This tragic story of miserable failure of the Palestinian Authority to protect its Christian citizens proves finally that they can never ever be qualified to be costodian of Christian Holy Places.

There have been inumerable cases similar to the one you relate and explain why Christians are gradually abandoning the Palestinian Authority controlled areas and move to more civilized countries.
I do not recall a strong protest by the Vatican to the incident you relate.

I appreciate your articles and always look forward to reading them.

Yours truly,

David Goshen
