This interview was originally published as a podcast episode, but Sam later told me that people in the West Bank heard the interview and recognized his voice.
Great article. I have a heightened religious orientation, but your interviewee reflects what I think is the majority case - most people are much less concerned about ideas and theology, instead outsourcing this to their “tribe”. Yet - yet - I do think the religious ideas are the key to undoing this interminable hatred.
The book came out before my interview with him but he had concerns about people tracing it back to him so he changed the title a few times and perhaps ultimately took it down, although I don’t know for sure. Our interview was originally audio but he asked me to convert it to text because someone had recognized his voice. After seeing your message above, I wrote to him to ask about this but received an “address not found” message. This is concerning. There’s one more thing I can try. I do hope he’s okay.

Has Sam's book come out yet? Amazon shows it as unavailable.
The title and author's name varies online but you can also try searching "Israel & Palestine Both Suck" by Sam Nara.
It's unavailable. I think someone is trying to silence him. Is there any way to retrieve his book, please?

Thanks for the response! I hope he's alright as well. I actually found the book in another name and title. Palestinian Dissident by Sam Shoman on Amazon https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CX8BKQP4?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details
