CWN Editor's Note: The Vatican has removed a Christmas creche that had been on display in the Paul VI auditorium, in which the Infant Jesus was wrapped in a keffiyeh. The display had been interpreted as a show of support for the Palestinian cause.
The creche, designed by a pair of artists from Bethlehem, and entitled: “Nativity of Bethlehem 2024,” and prompted protests from Israeli officials.
