Palestinians in Syria, Lebanon and the West Bank

Palestinians in Syria, Lebanon and the Occupied WB and Gaza have been in the news on and off again during the past several months, both as a result of the attacks on them in Syria and Gaza and as they have been responding to recent statements and moves by Palestinian Authority head, Mahmoud Abbas. Today, we briefly cover the plight of Palestinian refugees in Syria who have been fleeing to Lebanon, and then discuss the new culture of resistance that is emerging among Palestinian refugee youth in Lebanon.

Guest: Moe Ali Nayel, an independent journalist based in Lebanon.
