4m 51s
From Kyiv’s bomb-shattered dawns to Tehran’s “burnt generation,” four extraordinary leaders take you inside the defining conflicts of our era. In this raw, no-notes conversation they relive split-second escape decisions, childhoods under siege, and the myths that still keep Israelis and Palestinians apart. Their message: history is written by people who refuse to surrender their humanity.
Key Takeaways:
- Humanising The Headlines: First-person war accounts reveal how identity, fear and pride ignite today’s flashpoints more vividly than any data set.
- Religion–Law–Power Collision: Faith, governance and rule-of-law ambitions clash in Ukraine, Iran, Israel and Lebanon, turning local struggles into global risk signals.
- Myth And Memory Loops: Competing national myths endure because they hold kernels of truth; confronting them is essential for lasting peace.
- Resilience After Ruin: Rebuilding can be rapid when pragmatic coalitions form—mind-set often matters more than money.
