The Middle East Discourse 2
Welcome, this another interesting and great discussion about Palestine and the legacy of the Middle East due to heavy historical foreign intervention. Had a great chance to have the conversation while Sam Erikat got his opportunity to stay in Palestine and voice on the behalf of the Palestinians. Thank you to Sahar Waseem and Hashem for being apart of this. Not a very easy topic, but great points were made and now time to reflect.
Special shout out to Chrei for the editing and help.
