Episode #18 Israel and Hezbollah on the brink, with content creator Elhanan Miller
Description
Are Israel and Hezbollah on the brink of an all-out war? We confront the escalating conflict between Israel and Hezbollah with Arab affairs expert and content creator Elhanan Miller. Elhanan sheds light on Israel's recent intelligence and military actions, the influence of Hezbollah's leader Hassan Nasrallah (who was killed in the days after the episode was recorded), and the intricate ties between Hezbollah and Iran. Lastly, we explore the complex cultural and political landscape of Lebanon and its impact on the wider Arab world. Elhanan provides insights into the sectarian divisions and historical alliances that define Lebanon's political scene, examining the role of Maronite Christians and their historical ties to Israel. Despite ongoing turmoil, he shares a hopeful vision for future peace and the role of education in achieving it.
