Palestinians co-opt Santa Claus for anti-Israel propaganda

Santa Claus is making his way around the world, taking care to stop his sleigh in every country. But according to several anti-Israel Twitterers, St. Nick is going to have a rough time in the Holy Land thanks to big, bad Israel.

Then again, I'm sure #Israel is detaining #Santa for his well-being. He does really need to go on a diet #Palestinian style #PalHunger
