  Reading through that it seemed that the difference was not religious but political (both Palestine and Israel have citizens with a variety of faiths). Both Israel and Palestine are UTC+3 so the problem stemmed from when daylight saving time was enacted for one territory and not the other at the same time (and exacerbated by those from Israel maintaining Israel time while in Palestine during the time difference). I wonder if the two areas have now synced when they change the time, since I can’t find any follow ups.
