Episode 295: Are we Calling this a War? Dispatches from Lebanon ft. Heya Wines
Manage episode 446309226 series 2289871
I cried 3 times interviewing Claudine and Michelle from Heya Wines, who are making truly gorgeous wines in the North of Lebanon and supporting communities of women and children displaced by the Syrian Civil war. You should seek out their wines, imported by the wonderful Terra Sancta Wine Imports.
At this moment, US weaponry is being used by Israel in a campaign of terrorism across Lebanon as well as in the Gaza Strip in Palestine, where the conditions verge on genocidal. Death is incredibly close throughout the country, adding another layer of precarity to the already fraught harvest season. Your tax dollars are doing this and not going to fix any of the problems that you and I would like to see fixed. This will not end without the United States developing a conscience, and you should feel absolutely comfortable using your vote and your voice as a tool to force this.
Please if you are in the United States, take a moment to remind your elected officials that this is unacceptable -- the executive branch could stop this with one phone call.
If you are able to, please donate to the following organizations --

@alebeirut food distribution to the displaced.
