Join the Electronic Intifada this afternoon for a special livestream with coverage and analysis of the unprecedented Iranian military response last night to Israel’s aggression against its embassy in Syria.
Our live guest will be Mohammad Marandi, professor of English literature and Orientalism at the University of Tehran.
Nora, Ali, Jon and myself will be live backed by producer Tamara.
For further background, check out Ali’s recent interview with Professor Marandani here, which is well worth watching:
