from Makdisi Street
The brothers welcome Lebanese scholar and original "Angry Arab" Asad AbuKhalil, author, columnist, professor, and public intellectual. The discuss the increasing depravity of a long history of Israeli wars on Lebanon going back to 1948; why so many in Lebanon continue to put their faith in the pipe-dream of peace with a state that is actively committing genocide, the neglect of the South during the decades of alleged Lebanese prosperity in the run up to the civil war, the origins of the Dahiye, why the current Lebanese government has turned its back on resistance, and the extent to which Lebanese leaders and politicians have collaborated with Israel since 1948, the difference between the 1982 Israeli invasion of Lebanon and today, the price of, and discontent with resistance, and the anti-Shii bigotry of Lebanese political culture.
