There are Christains in Israel. I expect them to be able to celebrate Christmas there the same way Jews can celebrate Hannakuh here.
Who said they can't? However, your expectations are misguided, since Israel is a Jewish state. Other religions are tolerated unlike say, Egypt, where Christians are murdered.

Egpyptians are ok with Christains, shore. Coptic Christians are among the oldest Christain communities in the world.
Why does Israel care? All they care about is keep sending us the money. They don't believe in Christian Armageddon so why do they care what CHristians think. Just show us the money. Fundies have no clue about how a lot of Jews view the CHristian Religion.
Apparently this mayor -- I thought the war on Christmas was a right wing conspiracy theory but I guess there was a modicum of truth to it.
I think you need to reread the article my friend, anyone is free to worship anyway they wish. Simply no public displays of Christmas trees But again, you are quite provincial. You expect the rest of the world to be the US, it isn't.
That's BS. If they can celebrate Hannakuh here, we should be able to celebrate Christmas there.
Sadly you don't understand they are not a Christian country, but a Jewish state. You also believe it is OK to slaughter Christians in Egypt, but get your panties in a wad over Christmas trees in Israel. Go figure.
