On June 13th, 2024, Israel and the United States launched a 12-day war on Iran. Al-Jazeera’s Fault Lines series executive producer Laila Al-Arian joins hosts Nora Barrows-Friedman and Ali Abunimah to talk about their latest documentaries: “Target Tehran,” about the human cost of Israel’s attacks on Iran, as well as “The Disappearance of Dr. Abu Safiya,” about the pediatrician in northern Gaza abducted by the Israeli army. They also discuss how Western media and politicians continue to minimize or ignore the ongoing genocide.
On the Resistance Report, the Electronic Intifada’s Jon Elmer covers confrontations against the Israeli army’s “Five Stones” operation in the West Bank with locally manufactured Carlo pistols, grenades and IEDs as Israeli demolitions target the northern refugee camps of Jenin, Tulkarm and Nur Shams.
And we hear about how daily life in Gaza means finding water, paying $10 for an onion at the market and getting together with the friends who remain.
