Some of the stories are of my own experiences, others were told to me by the wonderful people I met as I travelled from Ancient Stones to African Shores.

The events leading up to me coming fact to fact with an automatic rifle wielding Hezbollah guard.

The full text of my interview with a member of Hezbollah, conducted in a Beqqa valley compound.
