Talk:Munther Isaac

This page is subject to the extended confirmed restriction related to the Arab-Israeli conflict.

Reliability and independence

This article seems to be self-written. It reads more like a CV than an independent source.

For example, under Personal Life, the article states that the subject met his wife at a Christian conference. The reference provided, however, does not say this (it merely mentions her three times), so how could the writer of the Wikipedia article know that? ~2025-34617-41 (talk) 16:20, 18 November 2025 (UTC)

lol I’m definitely not Munther Isaac! 😂

where he met his wife is in the source cited . not sure how you missed it:

”Jesus was arguably the matchmaker for the Rev. Munther Isaac and his wife, Rudaina: The two met when Munther, a theology professor, spoke at a Christian conference Rudaina had organized while attending college.” Rainsage (talk) 16:33, 18 November 2025 (UTC)

(Sorry I've never engaged with an edit-locked page before, I hope I doing it right!)

Description of suggested change: Pastor Isaac is no longer at the Christmas Church in Bethlehem, he is pastor of Hope Evangelical Lutheran Church in Ramallah. He is also director of the Bethlehem Institute for Peace and Justice. This information should be changed in the information box about him.

Description of suggested change: Remove reference to personal life as the statement about meeting his wife is not supported by the source [3]. Ref Wikipedia BLP policy - information that is poorly sourced must be removed immediately.

In the Books section of this article, it is stated twice that Isaac argues that the land should be shared among Israelis and Palestinians. To me, this sounds like the one-state solution. Wikipedia has a page dedicated to this topic, so I think it should be linked to from the first mention of land-sharing, i.e., "Instead, he argues that the land should be shared."

 Not done: A call for Israelis and Palestinians to share the land could just as well be taken to refer to the two-state solution. We shouldn't read something into Isaac's work unless he explicitly addresses the issue. Day Creature (talk) 00:27, 25 December 2025 (UTC)
