You may hear on the news today about the Armenian Monk shot in the Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem, apparently by the Israeli's. In January 2000 I was there at the church and met all the Armenian clergy there... they were so kind and generous with us. I pray that whoever he was that he turns out ok. I don't know how Israel expects this will end suicide bombings... these new incursions into the West Bank can only inflame.

What a mess.
