For centuries, Palestine was a diverse multi-religious, multi-ethnic and multi-cultural society whose various facets lived side by side in peace. The Zionist project targeted all those facets and today threatens their very existence. Palestine’s Christians, inhabitants of Palestine for over 2000 years have their story to tell.

The dominant narrative on Palestine projected by the mainstream media, often deliberately omits a crucial component thereof, Palestinian Christians and their struggle against Zionism and the Israeli occupation with all its manifestations.

Not only does this reduce the Palestinian struggle, it exposes a hypocrisy of the largely Christian West towards their brethren in faith in Palestine.

 

Anas Altikriti talks to Bishop Munib Younan and Makram Khoury-Machool about the struggles the Palestine’s Christians encounter including correcting the dominant narrative on Palestine and their unwavering solidarity with their Muslim and Arab brethren against the ugliness of occupation
