US practice and escalation before and after 9/11

Israel assassinated Iran's supreme leader on the first day of the war — killing senior military, intelligence and political figures afterwards. For decades, assassination has been Israeli policy. But what has the strategy achieved? And is it becoming normalised? 

In this episode: 

• Rami Khouri, Distinguished Fellow at the American University of Beirut
• Illan Pappe, Israeli historian and chairperson of the Nakba Memorial Foundation
• Luca Trenta, Associate Professor at Swansea University who specialises in state-sponsored assassinations
