Israel’s invasion of Lebanon, US-IDF merger bill & nuclear blackmail — with Marwa Osman

Olga and Tara are joined live from Beirut by journalist and educator Marwa Osman as Lebanon faces an escalating Israeli ground invasion, mass displacement, and the imminent threat of an all-out regional war.

Marwa shares her firsthand account of surviving the strikes, including the destruction of her own home in south Lebanon. Why is the West turning a blind eye to the displacement of over 1.5 million Lebanese citizens?

We also break down a thousand-page US defense bill aiming to legally merge the American military with the IDF – forcing Western taxpayers to fund high-tech warfare overseas while domestic infrastructure crumbles.

Finally, we expose the dangerous parallel of Western tech being deployed in drone strikes on the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant. Is Kiev using the threat of a nuclear catastrophe to blackmail European leaders?
