This episode of Across the Divide, part of the Christ at the Checkpoint podcast series, features a powerful dialogue between Rev. Munther Isaac and human rights lawyer Dalia Qumsieh. Together, they unpack the daily violations of Palestinian human rights in the West Bank, with a focus on the impact of the military occupation on Palestinian Christian communities.
As emigration rates rise, the episode explores a critical question: Why are so many Palestinian Christians leaving their homeland? Through a human rights lens, Dalia Qumsieh offers insight into the legal and social challenges faced by these communities, while also emphasizing the broader implications for faith, justice, and resistance in the region.
