In this episode of Sage Takes Thyme, our hosts Elissa and Amira interview Chloe Kattar, a historian of modern Lebanon and researcher at the University of Oxford, to talk about the reality we are living almost a year after Oct 7 and the start of the genocide in G.aza.

They discuss Israel's recent escalation of war and the deliberate attacks on civilians in Lebanon, delving into topics such as the political dynamics of Lebanon, the Lebanese resistance, and the role of mainstream media in creating false narratives and spreading propaganda that Israel exploits while it practices the same tactics of war used against G.aza to launch its military campaign in Lebanon.

They also uncover ways to navigate the complexity of these issues, and how the community can support those affected by the violence and war crimes that Israel is committing against our people in the region.
