Holy Land. Christians in peril
Description
One of the most important aspects of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict that has been overlooked is the plight of Christians in the Holy Land. Christians in the Palestinian territories have dropped from 15 percent of the Arab population in 1950 to just two percent today. This Christian exodus is a result of many factors, including the fighting between Israelis and Palestinians, but perhaps most significantly, the religious persecution these Christians encounter from their Muslim neighbors.
