Jon Elmer shares his analysis of Hizballah’s retaliatory strike on key military bases in Israel. On Sunday, Hizballah carried out a significant drone and missile attack against military and intelligence targets in Israel, in retaliation for Tel Aviv’s assassination last month of Fuad Shukr, a senior commander in the Lebanese resistance organization. Israel tried to spin the attack as a failure, and claimed that it detected and preempted a much bigger Hizballah attack by launching a series of airstrikes. This is a segment from The Electronic Intifada's day 327 livestream. Ali Abunimah, Nora Barrows-Friedman, Jon Elmer and Asa Winstanley were joined by Steven Salaita, a professor of English and comparative literature at the American University of Cairo.
