Sir Paul McCartney paid a visit on Wednesday to the reported birthplace of Jesus Christ while on a tour of Bethlehem. Paul requested a visit to the Church of the Nativity, took photos, and lit two candles “for peace”. The church was built in the fourth century over the traditional birthplace of Christ. Paul also stated that he hoped that his visit to the West Bank would satisfy those non-Jewish critics who have opposed the idea of him performing in Tel Aviv. Paul said:

“I’m here to highlight the situation and to say that what we need is peace in this region, a two-state solution.
“I get criticised everywhere I go, but I don’t listen to them (critics). I’m bringing a message of peace, and I think that’s what the region needs.”

Bravo, Paul!!
