Your Royal Majesty
May most respectfully add the following in the celebration of Xmas. I share Your Majesty ’s grief over the young men and women who lost their lives in Afghanistan and elsewhere, and with their families and friends for a great personal loss. All Moslems and Arabs, I am sure, join Your Majesty’s great admiration for the courage of troops out there and what they are trying to do.. But they are not the only casualties war nor are they the only ones who lost their lives for the safety of the streets of Britain and USA.
I also agree that Xmas is not for the Christians alone. Jesus is one of the greatest Prophets of the Moslem and Arabs all over. His mother Mary-peace be on her-is one of the most revered women in our culture.
Your Majesty will have read or heard of some Rabbi’s in Israel who prohibited the display of Christian symbols in restaurants and cafes and threatened to call on the Israelis not to make custom with them, while the Palestinian Moslems leaders and Christian and Moslem commoners joined last night as they always do in the Xmas celebrations in Bethlehem in the prayers and festivities.
With all due respect and homage to Your Great and beloved Person.

The Queens speech is something of a tradition and i look forward to it. If it didn’t happen then it would be like not having Christmas day .
Great when I was 10 days old in March 1961 my lady hand pick me to be her sucessor to the crown of England Dennis Andrew Jewell son of god
My family and I always look forward to the speech wherever we are in the world. It’s part of Christmas Day. Her thoughts and wishes are what the world needs more of. Thank you for your tireless work.
It’s also on Channel 9 around 11:30pm and UKTV around 4pm.
Can’t wait to hear how the rich old duck is fairing.
Her Majesty”s Christmas message has been a Family tradition for many in Canada. It has always been a welcome statement from the Queen’s perspective of the events ot the past year and an expression of hope and joy for the year ahead. I value Her Majesty’s greetings as part of our Nation’s Christmas but also a personal touch from our Canadian head of state!
