Occupation Israel tries to prevent airing a report on displacing Christians from Palestine

American Network “CBS” disclosed, on Tuesday, that there was Zionist pressure exerted on the network to stop it from broadcasting a report within “60 Minutes” program discussing the Zionist policies to displace Palestinian Christians from Jerusalem and Bethlehem.

The correspondent on the U.S. news program “60 Minutes”, Bob Simon, has scolded Occupation Israel’s ambassador to US Michael Oren for his intervention and his attempt to prevent the airing of the report, saying that he had never received a reaction to a story that hadn’t been broadcast yet. The ambassador replied that there is always a first time for everything, and that he is serving his country and protecting it, pointing out that the channel should have broadcast reports on the situation of Christians in other countries in the region.

The channel aired last night, the report unveiling the policy of the Zionist entity to displace Palestinian Christians from the Holy Land revealing the harassment and oppression by the occupation that Christians face and that turns their lives into hell.

The Zionist ambassador told Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who intervened with the channel’s management to stop the airing of the report, that if the report contains the information he was told it contains then it would be a strategic disaster for our relations with United States’ Christians.

The Hebrew Ha’aretz newspaper pointed the ambassador had tried to mitigate the impact of the report through publishing, in advance, a press release in an American newspaper talking about the religious freedom that Christians enjoy in the Palestinian territories, “contrarily to the oppression they face in the Arab world” as he said. The newspaper refused to publish the reactions of Christians from Bethlehem and Jerusalem.
