Failing as a state? Lebanon, state failure and politics of demand

Text by Tiina Järvi on South Lebanon. ‘Libanonilaiset kärsivät jälleen, kun Israel ja Hizbollah ottavat yhteen Iranin pommitusten varjossa’ blogs.tuni.fi/alustalehti/...

Libanonilaiset kärsivät jälleen, kun Israel ja Hizbollah ottavat yhteen Iranin pommitusten varjossa | Alusta! | Tampereen korkeakouluyhteisö
Libanonin tilanne kytkeytyy laajempaan alueelliseen konfliktiin, jossa Iran tukee Hizbollahia. Jännitteet liittyvät myös Gazan sotaan. Libanon on valmiiksi kriisissä: taloudella menee huonosti ja poliittinen järjestelmä on halvaantunut. Yhteenotot pahentavat Libanonin siviilien tilannetta entisestään, kun ihmiset joutuvat pakenemaan kodeistaan ja peruspalvelut ovat jo valmiiksi äärirajoilla.

A judge just ruled that deporting Columbia activist Mahmoud Khalil over his pro-Palestine views is “reasonable” because it could harm U.S. foreign policy. No crime. No evidence. Just dissent. This is how authoritarianism works.
