Have you ever wondered how it feels to lose your loved ones to senseless violence?
Ilan Troin, a grieving father who lost his daughter and stepson to the ongoing conflict in Israel, shares his heart-wrenching story. The devastating cost of a well planned shocking and inhuman attack by the terror group Hamas.
Beyond personal stories, we delve into the geopolitical factors behind the conflict. Ibrahim Hazboun, a seasoned journalist and analyst on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, guides us through the intricate maze of issues leading to the explosion in violence. He details the 2007 Hamas takeover of Gaza, its ensuing rounds of conflict with Israel, and the chilling tactic of civilian targeting. We strive to understand this stalemate, the revulsion it sparks, and the loss of innocent lives.
On Back Story host Dana Lewis discusses an uncertain future between Israeli's and Palestinian's. We explore the disillusionment felt by the people of Gaza and the political stagnation caused by the right-wing Israeli government. We dissect how the media has failed to adequately cover the struggles of Gazan's and the shock of a generation who have known nothing but war.
