Vatican Nativity Scene has Jesus Lying on Keffiyeh Scarf

Vatican

Pope Francis inaugurated the “Nativity of Bethlehem 2024” inside Paul VI Hall.

Two artists from Bethlehem, which has been under the Palestinian Authority’s control since the Six Days War, designed the scene.

I have no doubt the artists, Johny Andonia and Faten Nastas Mitwasi, are Christians, but there’s something odd about the manger.

Yes, Jesus is lying on a keffiyeh scarf.

The Palestinian keffiyeh has been a symbol of Palestinian nationalism and revolts since the 1930s.

The scarf has become a symbol for those who hate Israel and want to exterminate Jews.

Jesus was a Jew.

Yasser Arafat popularized it in the 1960s.

Leila Khaled, a member of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, also made the keffiyeh scarf well known.

PFLP is a terrorist group, which has sided with Hamas in the latest war.

Oh, who is Khaled? The first woman to hijack an airplane. Yeah, she hijacked TWA Flight 840 in 1969 on its way from Rome to Tel Aviv. She hijacked a plane from Amsterdam to New York City in 1970. The flight originated from Tel Aviv.

Here’s a fascinating interview with the pilot, Uri Bar-Lev, who outmaneuvered her.

My friend Bonchie worded it perfectly. Like him, my problem has always been with the people around Pope Francis. I swear they ousted Pope Benedict and installed Pope Francis.
