Palestinian: Christians being 'watched' ------------------------------------- Believers suffer atmosphere of intimidation, persecution Posted: May 21, 2009 10:50 pm Eastern By Aaron Klein © 2009 WorldNetDaily JERUSALEM – Christians in the Palestinian territories are being "watched," a spokesman for the Palestinian Authority admitted to WND. "We have been watching this Christian organization and for the moment there is nothing special in their activity," said Adnan Dmeire, spokesman for the PA's security organizations in West Bank. Dmeire was referring to the Association of the Holy Book, one of the main groups that attends to the needs of Christians in the Palestinian territories. The group has been accused by both the PA and Hamas of carrying out missionary activities. A Bible store the association sponsored in the Gaza Strip – the only Christian bookstore in the territory – was attacked by Islamists several times. The store's owner, Rami Ayyad, was found shot to death in 2007, his body riddled with bullets... wnd.com:80 As a Catholic I have been to Yad Vashem and found it to be very emotional. The World needs many more 'Historical Memorial Museums' like Yad Vashem to keep the public aware of the worlds historical tragedies - so we do not repeat them. Atrocities from every war and acts of racial, ethnic or religious genocide should be memorialized in Museums like Yad Vashem or in Monuments like the Vietnam Monument in Washington D.C. Greater awareness will lead to greater understanding and hopefully to peaceful societies one day. We need these types of horrors out in the open not hidden away in history books. Yes - Western Europe & the Western Hemisphere need to be more open about publicly acknowledging war atrocities both historically and in modern warfare and conflict. Otherwise history will repeat itself - and the next time Christians may very well find themselves being the victims of mass exterminations.
