Jihad Watch:
Jesus was, of course, Jewish. He was born in Bethlehem of Judea. The Church of the Nativity was built on the site believed to be where he was born. The Romans didn’t rename Judea “Palestine” until 134 AD, long after Jesus was born. The Jeopardy question seems to have been about where the Church of the Nativity is located. Bethlehem is in what is generally believed to be “occupied” “Palestinian” territory, but in reality there never has been a State of Palestine, and it never had a territory that could be occupied. Bethlehem was included in the British Mandate for Palestine, set aside for a Jewish National Home. Therefore only Israel has any right to that land. This is all about the jihad against Israel, not about “occupation,” as is clear from the fact that there was no outcry about “occupation” when Egypt occupied Gaza and Jordan occupied Judea and Samaria from 1948 to 1967. Get the facts in The Palestinian Delusion: The Catastrophic History of the Middle East Peace Process.
[…] The producers of Jeopardy! are setting the record straight about a contentious question that aired during Friday’s episode, in which it seemingly deemed that Bethlehem is located in Israel and not Palestine in its answer.
The controversy began when contestant Katie Needle responded to a question under the “Where’s That Church?” category. When prompted by a clue about the Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem, where Christians believe to be the birthplace of Jesus, she answered Palestine — which host Alex Trebek said was incorrect.
Fellow contestant Jack McGuire was rewarded with $200 for buzzing in with the answer of Israel moments later, causing an uproar among Palestinian rights advocacy groups online. read more

WTF are they apologizing for? What leftist/islamic shitheads watch jeopardy??
Learn from sweden, folks.
Yes, Christ is a Jew and he will be back to settle the issue of his birthright as Lord of all;
Acts – Chapter 1 (Christ speaking to his disciples)
6 When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?
7 And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power.
8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.
9 And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight.
10 And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel;
11 Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.”
Romans – Chapter 14
11 “For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.”
My bet is if you want to send a letter to the Church of the Nativity, the letter will be delivered by the Israel Post Company.
It is near impossible to get an internet search to state what country Bethlehem or the Church of the Nativity is in.
Common answers – West Bank (which appears to have a 7 digit post code issued by Israel Post Co.), Palestinian, State of Palestine (where ever that is). Anywhere but stating they are in Israel. Saying the West Bank, imo, is similar to saying Denver is in the Rocky Mountains, or Los Angeles is on the West Coast, both are still in the USA.
In addition, Christ was born in the city of David, Bethlehem;
8 “Now there were in the same country shepherds living out in the fields, keeping watch over their flock by night.
9 And [c]behold, an angel of the Lord stood before them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were greatly afraid.
10 Then the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid, for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy which will be to all people. 11 For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. 12 And this will be the sign to you: You will find a Babe wrapped in swaddling cloths, lying in a [d]manger.”
13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying:
14 “Glory to God in the highest,
And on earth peace, goodwill[e] toward men!”
15 So it was, when the angels had gone away from them into heaven, that the shepherds said to one another, “Let us now go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has come to pass, which the Lord has made known to us.”
Proof of the main reason Islam, the enemy of the True and Living God, wants that territory – to attempt to stop the Gospel – that will never happen.
