The joint US-Israeli assault on Iran, which began on February 28, 2026, is a criminal act of war waged in flagrant violation of the United States Constitution and international law. The attack included the murder of Iran's head of state, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, and other senior leaders of the Iranian government. There is no legal justification for the attack, as no authorization has been sought from or granted by the US Congress, and no UN Security Council resolution sanctioned the use of force.
Why it matters
The war against Iran is a crime against a people and against civilization. The bombardment of Iranian cities like Qom and Isfahan targets the accumulated intellectual, cultural and social life of a historic society. The working people in the US and internationally must oppose this onslaught and demand an immediate end to the attacks.
The details
The assault has taken the form of targeted assassinations of political leaders and military commanders, accompanied by massive bombardment that has produced terrible civilian casualties. Within hours, Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei was confirmed dead, along with the chief of army staff, the defense minister, the head of the Revolutionary Guard Corps, the secretary of the Defense Council and approximately 40 other officials. A girls' elementary school was struck in the city of Minab in southern Iran, killing nearly 150 schoolchildren.
- The joint US-Israeli assault on Iran began in the early morning hours of February 28, 2026.
- The attack came just two days after the conclusion of US-Iran talks mediated by Oman in Geneva.
The players
Ayatollah Ali Khamenei
Iran's head of state who was murdered in the attack.
Donald Trump
The US president who announced the war in a video posted to his private social media platform, Truth Social, from his Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach, Florida.
What’s next
The judge in the case will decide on Tuesday whether or not to allow Walker Reed Quinn out on bail.
The takeaway
This case highlights growing concerns in the community about repeat offenders released on bail, raising questions about bail reform, public safety on SF streets, and if any special laws to govern autonomous vehicles in residential and commercial areas.
