We take a pause from the insanity of the election and a commander in chief with COVID-19 (remind me to thank him for endangering the staff at Walter Reed, as well as the permanent staff at the WH!) to discuss the recent explosion in Lebanon and America's long intervention history there. We break down some of the myths from Danny's series and give everyone a good picture of where Lebanon is today and how American foreign policy took it there. Below is the links for Danny's series on Lebanon. Enjoy!!!
Lebanon: Bellwether, Battleground, and Bastard Child of the Mideast
Lebanon: The Top Ten Myths About the Country and Its Conflicts
Lebanon: The Top Ten Myths About the Country and its Conflicts (Part Two)
