Christian Arabs tend to support Hamas/Fatah largely out of fear and necessity. European Christians tend to be anti-Semitic and sympathetic to the Palestinian (Islamic) cause.
American Christians tend to be pro-Israel, especially the evangelical Protestants, who are philo-Semitic.
But Christian Palestinians, and Christian Lebanese, and Christian Egyptians have been leaving the region in droves, moving to America, Canada, Australia and Europe where they seamlessly assimilate. Curiously, Muslim Palestinians do not integrate at nearly the same rate, or with the same ease.

It's not politically correct so people feel uncomfortable about voicing any opinons like this. Muslims are also not offensive, it's just a different belief. They get a heaps of crap from just a few bad representives. But I guess you must mean that if atheists can think that Christians are offensive then we can think that muslims are offenisive. But it doesn't work like that. But I do agree that America is going WAY too far with Holiday Trees.

First of all, the palestinan christians have no weapons, and hamas will never allow them to carry weapons. Second, the weapons being given to hamas and fatah are given from syria and iran, they would never give it to christians. Third, palestinan christians are on the outside of this war, they cannot fight because they dont beleive in the mentality that I WILL DIE A MARTYR. They are christians, and christian teaching does not say to go fight and kill and wage war etc... If they all fought they would die instantly since their numbers are relativley small. Fourth, It is not in the best interest of any palestinan to fight along side the palestinan muslim, because inside their hearts they dont like each other. Fifth they never fought in the first place. :)

"There is no such country as Palestine! 'Palestine' is a term the Zionists invented! There is no Palestine in the Bible. Our country was for centuries part of Syria."

Because the US is paying the Israelis to do it for them. Israel has the Worlds 3rd largest military due to the vast amount of aid it gets from the US most of which is arms. This is as much about oil as religion of course.

They don't need to fight, they finance the opposing sides to buy arms, then stir up trouble.
