...note, Hamad sees the competition for pilgrim dollars as a major challenge for the Palestinian Authority: ?You can see Jesus? birthplace in two minutes. After that, you need to eat lunch or dinner, to relax or stay in a hotel ? Bethlehem lacks these facilities, and we cannot attract tourists unless they are built.? In other words, 2,000 years after Christ?s birth, visitors to the town are still unlikely to find room...
