Middle Eastern Nativity Carol

I have just watched and listened to this beautiful carol from the Advent Calendar on
 Embrace the Middle East website... 

click this link: http://www.embraceme.org/8-dec 

and listen to the Byzantine Nativity, whilst watching photos and ancient icons
from Egypt / Sinai / Bethlehem and Syria.

I found this very moving, especially after all the news from Syria
and after reading "Once Upon a Country " by Sari Nusseibeh
