- Rima Majedassistant professor of sociology at the American University of Beirut.
In a report from Beirut, Rima Majed examines Israel’s escalating attacks on Lebanon and how Israel’s actions in the region have fueled resistance movements. “Since October last year, we’ve realized … our lives do not have a meaning in this broader international order. We are numbers. Our bodies are disposable,” says Majed. “All we keep hearing is that Israel has the right to self-defense. We never hear about the right of Palestinians to self-defense, or the right of Lebanese to self-defense.”
