From Beirut to Baghdad, from Cairo to Damascus, Middle East Christians celebrated Christmas under the dark shadows of Islamist threats, ongoing violence and financial crisis. Many are no longer inclined to cling to their ancestral lands. In Beirut, pastor Amal Saad didn’t even want to celebrate Christmas. In a telephone interview with Israel Today he said, “Everything has changed this year, we are no longer in an atmosphere that allows us to celebrate, there is nothing to celebrate in this country.” Part of the Lebanese pastor’s house was destroyed by the Beirut explosion that killed 200 people last August.
