Black Agenda Radio · Israel and the U.S. Escalate War in Western Asia

Dr. Gerald Horne is an author and historian who currently holds the John J. and Rebecca Moores Chair of History and African American Studies at the University of Houston. Nearly one year after Operation Al-Aqsa Flood on October 7, 2023, Israel continues its siege of Gaza and terrorizes Lebanon with exploding pagers, bombings, and the assassination of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah. Iran has launched missile strikes against Israel, just five weeks before a presidential election. Dr. Horne joins us from Houston to analyze these events.
