A Hizbollah representative in Iran says they plan to widen its attacks on Israelis until "there will be no place they are safe." The latest crisis began July 12 with Israel's onslaught on Lebanon. That was sparked by Hizbollah's capture of two Israeli soldiers. How will it end? Amr Hamzawy appears on NPR's "The Conversation" to discuss the current crisis in the Middle East.

    Taking the Pulse: Are Western Democracies Failing Free Speech?

    The battle over free speech has taken center stage since U.S. Vice President JD Vance accused Europe of censorship. From travel bans to social media regulation, especially around the Israel-Palestine conflict, are liberal democratic governments weaponizing free speech?
