149: Wartime Diaries - Maryam Younnes
Despite all the experts and pundits out there, few know Hezbollah as well as the members of a small, and often forgotten, community living in Israel.
This community has found itself in an impossible position: Their adoptive country (Israel) is at war with their sworn enemy (Hezbollah), but is also - as a by-product - bombing their hometowns and villages in Southern Lebanon, where many of their friends and family members still reside.
Welcome to the Middle East. As always, it’s complicated.
In today's episode, we hear from Maryam Younnes, whose father was an SLA commander who relocated to Israel back in May 2000.
The end song is Shir Matzav ("A Song of the Situation") by Mika Karni.
