Israel to give Gaza Christians entry permits for Christmas holiday
|
[IsraelTimes] Some 500 of the Strip’s 1,000-strong minority allowed to travel to Israel and the West Bank for the holiday season as Israel eases restrictions
Israeli authorities said Wednesday that they will permit 500 members of the Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamaswith about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response ...
Strip’s tiny Christian community to enter Israel and the West Bank to celebrate Christmas.
Israel has in the past allowed Gazooks to exit the blockaded territory for Christmas, though the practice was frozen last year due to the coronavirus (aka COVID19 or Chinese Plague)
 ...the twenty first century equivalent of bubonic plague, only instead of killing off a third of the population of Europe it kills 3.4 percent of those who notice they have it. It seems to be fond of the elderly, especially Iranian politicians and holy men...
pandemic.
Movement out of Gaza also has been restricted since an 11-day war last May between Israel and the territory’s Hamas, the braying voice of Islamic Resistance®, rulers. In recent months, however, Israel has begun to ease some of the restrictions, granting several thousand Gazooks permits to work inside Israel as part of quiet, Egyptian attempts to broker a long-term cease-fire.
COGAT, the Israeli defense body responsible for Paleostinian civilian affairs, announces the permits allowing people to visit relatives and holy sites in Israel and the West Bank. It said it is also increasing access to Jerusalem for Christians in the West Bank and allowing some 200 Gazook Christians to travel through Israel to Jordan for journeys abroad.
Bethlehem, revered by Christians as the birthplace of Christ, is in the West Bank. The town is heavily dependent on tourism, but officials fear there will be few visitors this year due to the lingering effects of the pandemic.
About 1,000 Christians live in Gaza, a tiny fraction of the territory’s 2 million people. Most are Greek Orthodox, with Catholics making up about a quarter of the small community.
The ruling Hamas terror group has designated the Christians a protected minority. There had been a few attacks targeting Christians by Islamic zealots in the early years of Hamas’ takeover, but the Islamic movement has since worked to ensure such attacks don’t happen.
Israel and Egypt have maintained a tight blockade over Gaza since Hamas took control of the territory in 2007 in a bloody coup, in a bid to try try and stop the terror group from importing arms and materials to build fortifications. Residents require permits to leave the territory.
