So It seems like perhaps you just don’t understand any of the words in the title, let’s see if we can help!
Christmas is a Christian holiday often celebrated with feasts, singing, and calls for peace on earth and goodwill towards others.
Festivities are celebratory events and activities, typically characterized by joviality and shared happiness.
Solidarity is being United in your feelings, actions, and condition with someone else who might be in a different situation but shares some of your feelings, actions, and circumstances.
Bethlehem is the location where Christians believe their Messiah was born.
Gaza is a small region in the Middle East being ethnically cleansed by Israel.
Putting it all together the title reads:
Town where Christian God was born cancels celebratory activities in favor of showing support for the feelings and conditions of the victims of genocide in Gaza.
That is correct, Bethlehem is under occupation in the West Bank. People in Gaza cannot get permits to visit for Christmas. Also, people in the occupied West Bank who lost families when churches in Gaza were bombed and family members are being denied food, water, and medical aide do not feel that feasts and presents are appropriate. It is a time for prayer not presents.
Wow, racist much? Why is the Church if the Nativity in Palestine, the answer is that is where Christ was born and many Christians live there. One of the first things Israel bombed in Gaza was St Porphyrius Greek Orthodox Church which was one of the oldest churches in the world. Last week Israeli snipers killed several at the Catholic Church in Gaza. There are not as many Christians in Gaza anymore as most fled over the last 16 years of blockade, but to suggest that all Palestinians are Muslim is an embarrassing take.
Bethlehem is on the West Bank and they are not starving.

Now why would Muslims want to visit for Christmas?

So Christian Gazians you mean.
