Before we start.
This episode includes descriptions of violence that some listeners might find upsetting.
This week, after more than a year of fighting and an intense two month all out war, tens of thousands of Lebanese people, forced by the fighting to run, finally went home.

Hezbollah and Israel had reached a ceasefire, a fragile one that's already been breached a few times.
Israel's launched two airstrikes in Lebanon in just the past hour, which appears to be a resumption of hostilities.
Despite the ceasefire, its military says nearly.
4,000 Lebanese people have been killed in the past year.
More than a million have been displaced and the most powerful armed group in the country brought to its knees.
When Hezbollah entered the fights with Israel, it said that it would never stop until a ceasefire in Gaza was achieved.
On Tuesday, they quietly dropped any idea of achieving a ceasefire in Gaza in return for peace in southern Lebanon.
