If you read one thing this holiday season, let it be this oped by Rev Munther Isaac:
"Jesus was not born into serenity but into upheaval.
He was born under military occupation, to a family displaced by an imperial decree, in a region living under the shadow of violence...
Indeed, Christmas is a story of empire, injustice and the vulnerability of ordinary people caught in its path."
