Nadia Massih is pleased to welcome Dr. Randa Slim, Director of the Conflict Resolution and Track II Dialogues Program at the Middle East Institute and Fellow at the Foreign Policy Institute of the Johns Hopkins University School of Advanced International Studies (SAIS). According to Dr. Slim, Israeli strikes on Lebanon cannot be credibly framed as targeted operations against Hezbollah, but rather indiscriminate violence causing widespread civilian casualties and intensifying regional tensions. She argues that the events represent a critical inflection point within Lebanese public opinion.
