Very provocative and well constructed podcast, a couple of unanswered questions ie why did DA an educated woman follow her husband? But overall thoughtful and balanced series by an obviously very talented journalist.
Absolutely incredible reporting, a riveting listen. Bloodlines podcast gives a very personal look at the families and children of IS fighters. It’s a bit tense at times; Poonam Taneja is relentless in search of answers.
Such a well made podcast about an amazing story. Absolutely heart-wrenching and thought provoking!
Humanised a situation I knew about but not a lot. Seems crazy all these children caught up in this that are stuck in no man’s land. Made me think did this happen after WW2? I always thought after a time the prisoners all went back to where they came from but now they are in permanent limbo. They should all be sent back to their home countries.
