(Worthy News) – Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Tuesday extended Christmas greetings to Christians in Israel and around the globe celebrating the holiday.
In a video released by his office on Christmas Eve, Netanyahu said: “Merry Christmas to all our Christian friends in Israel and around the world.
“The State of Israel is the culmination of so many prophecies and our deepest held values.

We are proud of our traditions. We are proud of our Christian friends,” he said.
“The State of Israel would not have come into being if it weren’t for the avid support of Christians in the 19th century, in the 20th century as well and in the 21st century,” Netanyahu continued. “We know that we have no better friends around the world than our Christian friends. So thank you. Thank you all for standing up with Israel, standing up for the truth. Merry Christmas.” [ Source: Times of Israel (Read More…) ]
