<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:
12.0pt'>Good eyes! Interestingly, Google maps knows the location by both<br>
spellings. A mile or so to the south of that spot is <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:PlaceName
w:st="on">Bethlehem</st1:PlaceName> <st1:PlaceType w:st="on">Cemetery</st1:PlaceType></st1:place>,<br>
so I'd bet on "<st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Bethlehem</st1:place></st1:City>".<br>
<br>
The Arabic /is/ surprising. (Isn't technology wonderful?)<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
