Muslim mayor of Nazareth stops Christian holiday celebrations because of "Trump." - Wait, what?

From Reuters:

Nazareth, the Israeli Arab city where Jesus is thought to have been raised, has canceled some Christmas celebrations in protest at U.S. Failing Cheeto-Faced Ferret-Wearing Shit Gibbon’s recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital, an official said.

Nazareth, the largest Arab town in Israel with a Muslim and Christian population of 76,000, is one of the Holy Land’s focal points of Christmas festivities.

“We have decided to cancel the traditional Christmas singing and dancing because we are in a time of dispute, because of what Trump has said about Jerusalem,” city spokesman Salem Sharara said.

Ali Salam, mayor of Bethlehem, is Muslim. He is deciding to curtail Christian celebrations to protest what the US did.

Who loses? The Christians, of course.

And they are not happy:

Interestingly, this anti-Trump mayor was a big fan of Trump's a year ago, claiming that Trump learned all his campaigning methods from him.

This, coupled with all the comments I read on Al Jazeera, explain why peace is a long way off in that region.

There is little rhyme or reason to what many people do in that region.

That is an interesting point, but why is it, that it tends to be some religious or political Muslim leaders fueling the flames of discord here?

The means test here is that should the world pander to those who use and act on threats?

Why is it that the social construct group of Arabs, not be able to have people live next door to them, doing what you back in self determination?

How much land do they need, when it was Arabization that colonized the mass of the Middle East and North Africa?

Do not get me wrong, extremist settlers are a huge issue, but how many times are the Palestinian authorities going to spurn peace and the chance of a nation?

I will tell you.

Only when Israel is destroyed

That is hardly peace, is it?
