Dr. Denis MacEoin's letter to St. James Church
St James's Church in Piccadilly, London is hosting a Christmas
festival with a giant replica of the separation barrier in Israel,
which it incorrectly claims surrounds Bethlehem. (While portion of
the barrier is close to Bethlehem it is misleading to claim that it
even approximately surrounds Bethlehem).
Dr. Denis MacEoin is a scholar and editor of the Middle East
Quarterly, a journal dealing with politics, religion, and society in
the region. A former lecturer in Islamic studies, his academic
specializations are Shi'ism, Shaykhism, B?bism, and the Bah?'? Faith,
on all of which he has written extensively.
