Irineos, of the Greek Orthodox Patriarchate in Israel, is continuing with his anti-Israel activities. The official PA news agency reports that he took part in a PA leadership meeting two days ago in Ramallah. He departed after the meeting for Bethlehem to lead a Christian religious service. Arutz-7 reported two weeks ago that Prime Minister Sharon wanted to appoint Irineos as head of the Greek Orthodox Church in Israel, despite the latter's ties with Arafat. Sharon has apparently abandoned that idea, in face of heavy objections from most government ministers.
