Christian Arabs in the IDF

Father Gabriel Naddaf of Nazareth celebrated Christmas with Christian soldiers at an IDF base in Northern Israel. He works with the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews to encourage Christian Arabs to enlist in the Israel Defense Forces. Only 40 enlisted in the whole of 2012 before Father Naddaf began his project, but in March 2015 alone, 102 Christian Arabs volunteered to serve in the IDF.
