[IsraelTimes] Anti-Israel activists protest on Christmas outside St. Patrick’s Cathedral in New York City. Footage posted by the activists shows several dozen demonstrators lining the sidewalk as worshipers leave the church. The activists wave Paleostinian flags and hold signs saying "Jesus was Paleostinian" marked with an inverted red triangle, a Hamas  ..a regional Iranian catspaw,...symbol. A baby doll wrapped in a keffiyeh is placed on the sidewalk in front of the activists and a speaker addressing the crowd holds a doll covered in a red-splattered sheet. "Today, if Jesus were born in Bethlehem, he would be born under occupation and quite possibly he would be born under the rubble," she says, according to video posted by the protesters. The demonstrators are from Pal-Awda, an anti-Israel activist network. St. Patrick’s Cathedral is one of the city’s most recognizable Christian institutions, soaring above 5th Ave. in midtown Manhattan. It was also targeted by anti-Israel protesters on Easter. Anti-Israel activists also claimed Jesus as a Paleostinian and protested against Christmas proceedings in the same area of the city last year.
