Nothing Rhymes With Murder

مرحبا!

This week we’re off to Lebanon!

Georgie kicks us off with the dizzying Hijacking of TWA Flight 847- the bizarre sequence of events and it's tragic consequences

Kate then tells us about the gut-wrenching murder of Zeina Kanjo that lifted the lid on a nationwide issue.

Join us this week to be confused, exasperated and furious.

شكرا!
