Radical tv that speaks for oneself. This
tape includes excerpts of final interviews/testimonials
recorded with members of the Lebanese National Resistance
Movement (a secular multi-denominational movement) of the
late 1970's - 1980's, where speaking to their families,
friends, fellow fighters, and the general public, they
recount their life in the resistance and their
motivations for undertaking their sacrificial operation
(i.e. self-sacrificing raid on an Israeli Armed Forces
(IDF) tank or Israeli troops in Lebanon). Historically
the resistance in Lebanon has been a multifarious
phenomenon, taking place on the ground and in the hearts,
minds and bodies of people throughout all strata of daily
life. Martyrs such as Souhat Bischara, Iptisam Harb, Sana
Mihaidly, Bilal Faisse, Lola Aboud and Ahmed Assir have
become legendary figures with images of them adorning
many homes in the South.
This secular resistance continues today (under the
umbrella of Hizballah) against the occupation of South
Lebanon. |
