Bethlehem’s bombed-out nativity sculpture sends a powerful message

This year, Bethlehem is sombre and quiet. There is no Christmas tree and there are no holiday lights or tourists to see them. Instead, the city of Jesus’s birth – which is in the middle of a war zone – is marking Christmas with a powerful and poignant message: solidarity with Palestine. The Holy Family Cave is a sculpture that depicts a harrowing tableau: a bombed-out version of the traditional nativity cave, which many Christians traditionally believe is where Jesus was born in Bethlehem. It is the site of the Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem. Al Jazeera’s Nida Ibrahim reports from Bethlehem. Subscribe to our channel: http://bit.ly/AJSubscribe Follow us […]

Israeli air attacks target southern Lebanon

Israeli army says 152 Israeli soldiers have so far been killed since the ground assault in Gaza began on October 27. Levy said he is “quite surprised” that pressure on Netanyahu has been “limited” so far. “There is pressure concerning only one issue – releasing the hostages. Everything else […]
