‘This area has seen both war and #ecocide. The settler colonial consciousness aims for an empty land to control — but the resistant ecologies of this area keep defying those goals. The Israelis now know that alongside the military resistance they face here, they must contend with life itself.' - #MuniraKhayyat

"#Israel’s latest attacks on #Lebanon come after decades of conflict with #Hezbollah. Wars, assassinations and pressure have failed to break the group, which continues to launch rockets and fight Israeli forces. Why has Hezbollah endured, and what does the latest escalation reveal about the long war between Israel and Hezbollah?"

SCA Fieldsights Series: Another Season of War In #Lebanon

"Written from the middle of the most recent maelstrom by a majority of authors who were in Lebanon for its duration, the essays touch on diverse aspects of being in war: childhood, kinship, care, shelter, solidarity, (histories of) struggle, planting, helping, learning, teaching, salvaging, surviving." - #MuniraKhayyat

"People in #Lebanon and elsewhere—people who mostly experienced the south through The New York Times, who had not been displaced, who had not lost a person—spoke of 'Pyrrhic victories,' condemning sacrifices that were not their own. Sacrifices they didn’t understand."

"Trying to fathom the world-ending loss of the place that centered my ethnography of life and war in #SouthLebanon, I sent a voice-note to my close friend Ghida asking how she felt about the erasure of her beloved village. She responded, 'I don’t know. It is as if we have become numb.' "

"[#Hezbollah's] influence over #Lebanon’s army and judiciary is negligible. It has tried to avoid being tainted by the graft and corruption that permeates such institutions. But given the damage #Israel has inflicted on the group and its social base, Hezbollah now seems ready to forfeit some of this autonomy and integrate into the establishment: becoming more of a governing force than a militant one."

#Lebanon: The War of Resistance | #RedWolfMedia

"This short #documentary explores the #LebaneseResistance against the aggressions of #Israel. In the aftermath of the events of October 7th 2023 does the same modus operandi await the Lebanese people? Will we see a recurrence of the events of 2006 when a heavy toll was inflicted upon the IDF in the 34 day war?"
