An Israeli woman studying in Paris had a shocking experience recently after she got into a taxi and discovered that the driver belonged to the Hezbollah terror organization, Channel 12 reported.

The woman, named Sheva, told Channel 12, �A friend came to visit me, and we went out to celebrate together. We ordered a taxi through an app, and I saw that the driver spoke English�something that usually doesn�t happen here.”

�The conversation flowed easily and was pleasant. When I asked him where he was from, he said he was from Lebanon.�

Sheva said that she almost always tells people she is from Israel and doesn�t lie about it, and she described how the Lebanese driver�s face �turned white� when he heard that the passengers in his car were Israeli.

�It felt very uncomfortable. I told him that I understood he doesn�t like us,� she said.

She said that the driver quickly clarified that he has no problem with Israelis, but �he has a problem with Bibi and Ben Gvir,� and began talking politics.

“When I asked what he thought of Hezbollah, because to us it�s a terror organization, he responded, �I�m from Hezbollah.� At that point I was scared, just like he was scared when I told him I was from Israel.�

�There were about seven minutes left in the ride, and I decided that I had been given a mission, and I tried to do a bit of hasbara (advocacy),� she said. �We talked about October 7th, and I told him that three of my friends were murdered at Nova.”

“It was scary, but I wanted to get him to see our side too. At the end of the ride, he gave us his number and offered to drive us whenever we needed�but we gave him a fake number,” she concluded.
