I tell you, this is not new. The same things have been happening, but cameras weren't there and social media wasn't there.”Although Hezbollah and other resistance movements are painted as instigating violence, they are reacting to it. “The armed resistance in Lebanon and in Palestine and in Yemen and in Iraq is just the reaction to the decades of oppression, to the decades of blood.”Israel’s terrorism is presented as self defense, while Hezbollah’s self defense is presented as terrorism. But “when someone else is killing your infants, you’d have to be like God or a prophet to be able to forgive and forgive and forgive and forgive, decade after decade after decade.”Subscribe for the full interview with Ghadi Francis on the difference between how Israel and Hezbollah fight wars, the growing desperation in the west that could lead to a ceasefire, and her own experience in Hamas’s tunnels.00:00 Intro01:08 Aaron's hate crime04:56 Blinken celebrates the Geneva Conventions17:48 Ghadi Francis interview18:26 What is resistance?22:12 Who is Hezbollah?27:06 Does Hezbollah have support in Lebanon?31:43 Is Iran behind it all?36:40 The role of Hamas41:26 The ideology of Hezbollah46:36 How Israel fights vs how Hezbollah fightsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
