Why are Christians not permitted to emmigrate to Palestine since it went under jewish control?

Question

According to jews,Muslims are intolerant. But American Christians were free to travel to and even reside in the Holy land as long as it was in Muslim control. This ended in western Palestine in 1948 and eastern Palestine in 1967. Today no American Christian can stay for more than a few weeks; there is no immigration except for jews.

Answer 1

nonsense!

you can travel to Israel. there are many tourists here!!! and you can stay for more than few weeks.

I don't know who told you this lies but you shouldn't listen to people who hate Israel. especially those who try to brain wash you.

the thing is that if you're not Jewish or not married to one it will be a longer process to get a citizenship. but it's not impossible.

but to travel?  no no!!

and just so you know: muslim don't like people who are not muslim that travel in their places for example Mecca!

why don't you check this out.

Answer 2

The whole concept of zionism is to to create a purely jewish state; hence immigration is for the most part restricted to jews. Exceptions can be made but they are nothing exceptions,usually people assigned to help maintain pilgrimage sites and so on. But as a rule to immigrate there a person must be jewish on the matrilinear side at least four generations back,or a convert.

Answer 3

Not true.

Quite a few Xians have immigrated to Israel and live there very comfortably.

Answer 4

Oh please, stop listening to your propoganda Maya and others!

The Jews are VERY tolerant. Tell me, if they are so intolerant then why is it that everyone in Israel (Arabs, Druze, and countless other non-jewish groups) have the same rights regardless of religion, race, orientation, s*x, etc? Can you say that same about any other country in the middle east??

Why is it that statistics show that most Arabs living in Israel want to continue to stay under Israeli leadership, huh?

Answer that before you continue spewing your lies.

I personally know a Ukranian-Arab family from Beer Sheva and they have nothing but good things to say about their country.

Answer 5

There is a permanent ban of all immigration by anyone who isn't "jewish" in all areas of Palestine under their control. Yes,the Muslims are far more tolerant; in fact,about 15% of all Palestinians are Christian. Even up to 1967,Christians were welcome to migrate to the Holy Land and live in what was then the West Bank of Jordan. That ended when the jews hijacked the Holy Land. Today Bethlehem is surrounded by a iron wall and Christian immigration is banned.

Answer 6

Technically, Western Palestine was under British rule from the end of WWI until 1948.  But you're right, the Ottomans allowed Christians to immigrate to Palestine.  In fact, when Palestinians wanted to stop the Zionist takeover of their land, they petitioned the Ottoman powers to act to prevent land sales to them, but the Ottomans would not discriminate against Jewish Ottoman citizens.

I don't know where those people who say Israel is religiously tolerant get their idea.  Israel was founded on deliberate, premeditated and very violent "transfer" of the non-Jewish population out of Palestine - "transfer" being a sanitized Zionist term which means ethnic cleansing.  It has killed thousands simply for trying to return to their homes and land, and officially encourages settlers who conduct pogroms against non-Jews.  By what standard is shooting to kill innocent people for farming their own land considered tolerant?

Answer 7

Anyone who imagines the zionist regime welcomes immigration by Christians would be well advised to check with their embassy on that. With very rare exceptions immigration is severely restricted to jews. Don't take my word for it. Just contact their embassy.

Diana,the question had nothing to do with travel; that's just playing dumb,and it doesn't work. Before 1967 American Christians could get residency in the West Bank - then a part of Jordan - but not today. You aren't fooling anyone.

Answer 8

from what i have read,christians have been banned as well as all other religions but muslim

Answer 9

Christian immigration was banned in Eastern Palestine in 1948 and in the West in 1967. Christians may visit but not obtain residency as a rule. All immigration is jewish,including persons fleeing criminal prosecution. Christians miss the Holy Land as it was under Jordanian control,most of the Christian shrines being in the West bank. The immigration policy is a fact; jews can deny it all they want,but the only Christians in Palestine are those who remained after the Nakbar.

Answer 10

That is because Israel is for Jew only.

The so called christian palestinians are nothing but leftovers of the Crusaders.
