On the Syrian Situation with Paolo Dall’Oglio, SJ
A brief look at the conflict and crisis in Syria through the Ignatian lens.
Fr. Paolo Dall’Oglio, SJ, whose expulsion from Syria made international news, speaks to INN of the need to foster Syrian to Syrian dialog and the urgency for international intervention in Syria. He’s joined by Syrian American Council-member, Dr. Mahmoud Khattab, who speaks of how all Americans can take action to address the devastating violence and civil unrest. Also, Dr. Najwa Al-Qattan, Professor of Middle East History at Loyola Marymount University, gives a historical perspective on the turmoil as well as a reflection on Western perception of the Middle East.
