Summary:
I speak to Mariam, a Lebanese Israeli Christian whose family fled southern Lebanon in 2000 after threats from Hezbollah. She shares how they built a new life in Israel while preserving their Lebanese identity, and why she now creates Arabic content about Christians across the Middle East.
We discuss the “Greater Israel” narrative, Christian life in Israel compared with the Palestinian territories, and genuine cases of extremist Jews harassing Christian clergy. Mariam also gives her view on Lebanon’s desire for peace, Hezbollah’s declining strength, changing regional politics and Israel’s poor public relations.
