"The war in Lebanon is existential" w/ Hala Jaber

The brothers are joined by the award-winning Lebanese investigative journalist Hala Jaber to discuss the ongoing Israeli war on Lebanon in the context of the US-Israeli war on Iran, the timing of the unexpectedly strong re-emergence of Hizballah following 15 months of Israeli violations of the Nov 2024 ceasefire, the humanitarian catastrophe and displacement of hundreds of thousands from the south and the suburbs of Beirut, and the reasons for the Lebanese government’s unprecedented decision to outlaw Hizbullah military and security parts even as Israel prepared for invasion.
