RTE News buys and broadcasts the Palestininan version yet again
RTE News along with most of the European media world have consistently bought and broadcast the lie that 200 Palestinian people are 'being held under siege in the Church of the Nativity by the IDF'. They (RTE & company) have chosen to ignore Israeli claims that in fact a dangerous band of armed Palestinian terrorists are holding the rest of the people hostage. Now that the hard evidence that these claims are in fact the truth is mounting, how much longer will RTE ignore it. Here is un update of latest evidence:
Monks in Bethlehem: Save Us!
(IsraelNN.com) Two monks held captive by PLO gunmen inside the Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem found their way to the roof of the building and waved a sign upon which was written “Save Us”, in English, in the direction of IDF soldiers stationed outside the Church. The two then quickly retreated into the Church once again.
Later today, three other monks who were held captive in the Church managed to escape. They told the IDF soldiers who received them that the Moslem gunmen in the Church have broken into the Armenian chapel located on the Church of the Nativity’s grounds. According to the monks, they desecrated the chapel and stole whatever gold they could find from inside the Armenian prayer hall.

Did it not occur to you that the priests may be simple calling to the International media (or the Pope) to save them for the IDF….. They have been stuck in the chapel for 3 weeks now and by all accounts under fire from the IDF.
The three monks that escaped now why didn’t we see pictures???? Israel TV would have run it or even pro Israel media in the US. I do believe you are simple believing the propaganda coming from of Sharon.
You ask for proof:
