Dear Stan,The Electronic Intifada Livestream is starting soon! 1900 Palestine time / 2000 Amman / 1700 UK / 1800 CET / 12 pm ET / 11 am CT / 9 am PT On 28 February, the United States and Israel launched a war of aggression against Iran, murdering its leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, and declaring that their goal is to topple the country’s system of government. In the first few days, the joint attack, including indiscriminate bombing of civilians, has killed 1,000 Iranians and injured thousands more. Iran is retaliating against US bases and assets across the Gulf region and against Israel, killing two dozen people. From Lebanon, Hizballah has joined the battle, targeting Israeli positions. Israeli bombing has killed more than 50 people in Lebanon and displaced tens of thousands more. It’s total war. We’ll hear the news from Palestine from Nora Barrows-Friedman and talk to contributor Donya Abu Sitta in Gaza about the situation there as Israel maintains its siege and continues its attacks. Jon Elmer will cover the military aspects of the first five days of the US and Israeli war against Iran. Ali Abunimah will report on the political and economic fallout and the historical background of Western hostility towards Iran. Please join Nora, Jon, Ali, Tamara Nassar and Asa Winstanley for all this and more. Thank you for reading, listening to and sharing all our original news and analysis at The Electronic Intifada.
