NYC's first lady attends Corsica retreat honoring Mary as 'Palestinian woman' under 'occupation'...

Rama Duwaji, New York City's first lady, attended a retreat in Corsica where Mary was referred to as a 'Palestinian woman' under 'occupation'. This framing has sparked controversy, inciting a response from the Israeli Consulate in New York, which criticized the narrative as historically misleading.

The consulate emphasized that Jesus lived long before the emergence of Islam, asserting that such contemporary political identities distort the historical context of religious figures. The event and its implications have drawn attention to the ongoing debate surrounding Israel and Palestine.
