WE REGRET TO INFORM YOU that weeks of uncertainty ended this morning with Israeli airstrikes of an intensity not seen in Lebanon since 2006. Tuesday’s pager detonations in Lebanon set off a week of chaos. As radio equipment exploded and hospitals were overloaded, Israeli strikes in Lebanon followed. Civilians have received warnings to evacuate many parts of Lebanon, and the Israeli government has announced its intention to shift the war’s status quo. Meanwhile American diplomats scramble, much as they have for the last year. Today is a day of uncertainty and fear. We hope tomorrow will be brighter. In today’s episode we take on a crisis still as-of-yet unfolding. We attempt to make sense of what has happened, why, and what we can take away from the spiralling war in the Middle East.
Stay hopeful,
Sam
