(1) The overall fact remains: Palestinians Christians are declining and almost extinct in Hamas/PA-controlled areas, but all Christians including them are increasing in Israel proper. This fact alone negates all of your protestations. (2) Do you deny that non-Muslims as second class citizens have adopted a Stockholm Syndrome mentality, in which they sympathize with their oppressor just so that they are not immediately killed but rather can at least survive a little while longer? That's what those Palestinian Christians are suffering from. (3) Yes, Jewish Israelis are oppressing Christians sometimes, like in the Armenian Quarter of Jerusalem; however, overall, again, Christian numbers are going up in Israel while they are nearly extinct in Hamas/PA-controlled areas. Israel isn't perfect, but evidently, and I say evidently to reference the overwhelming evidence that Christians are increasing in Israel while nearly extinct in Hamas/PA-controlled areas, Israel is faaaaaaaaar less bad than Hamas/PA when it comes to persecuting Christians.
