Palestinian Christian Witness, Journalism Under Occupation, and the Western Christian Imagination with Daoud Kuttab

What does it cost to tell the truth about Palestine? For Daoud Kuttab, the answer involves prison cells on both sides of the conflict. In this episode, Kuttab joins Fares Abraham to examine the Palestinian Christian presence in the Holy Land, the battle over narrative in Western media and the church, and what that demands of Christians engaging the conflict from a distance. The conversation covers the 1948 and 1967 wars, the Palestinian refugee question, Christian-Muslim relations in the Arab world, and what nonviolent Christian witness looks like from inside the occupation. Daoud Kuttab is an award-winning Palestinian journalist based in Jerusalem and Amman. He is the founder of Ammannet Radio and the editor of Milh al-Ard (Salt of the Earth), a publication covering Christian communities across Palestine and Jordan. His reporting has appeared in the New York Times, the Washington Post, CBS 60 Minutes, and other major international outlets. ——— Welcome to the Fares Abraham Podcast.
