What exactly is happening in the Middle East?
Maia Poet is a former Israeli civilian and, in this episode, Maia delves into the horrific realities of what happened on October 7th.
“I’ve lived through a few wars in Israel by now, and October 7 was by far the worst… I lost friends on that day…
Hamas has so much buy-in from Westerners because Westerners have really cushy lives and they don’t understand how war works, and they don’t understand that there are some people that just don’t value life. Hamas doesn’t value life, and it’s not just Hamas. It’s any jihadi group…”
In addition to this, Maia explains the policies of countries surrounding Israel, and how those policies affect innocent civilians. Maia will also address the mainstream narrative of Pro-Palestine protests which constantly advances the idea that Israel does not care about bystanders in their effort to keep their people safe.
This is a incredible episode that you do not want to miss.
