Arafat celebrated Christmas too

I don't see why there should be a big issue about the national-level Christmas Day celebration in Petaling Jaya on Dec 25.
I recall that the late Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat, a Muslim, used to attend Christmas Mass in church and celebrate together with the Christian Arabs of his country.
If the Palestinian Muslims can be open minded in their relationship with other faiths, so can we.
