Welcome to Navarra Live, coming up tonight. Pete Hexeth is lashing out at the media over their coverage of the Iran War.

0:10.7

Palantius Alex Karp is predicting the future. We'll ask who will be benefiting from the oil shock that's been generated by Israel and the US's illegal war on Iran,

0:20.0

and we'll take a look at how AI slop is trying to influence politics. I'm Helena, aka No Justice MTG, to my best Michael Walker impression this Friday, and tonight I am delighted to be joined by Curtis Daly for the first time in the studio. How you doing? I'm very well. I'm so excited to be in the studio. I mean, I love what you've done with the place. It looks fantastic. So being here and this year with you, of course, is going to be a fantastic show tonight. I love very much and look forward to it and we all see how it goes. As always, as always. Now, it is less than a week to go until the event Dark Money, hosted by Dalia Gabriel and Koja Karam. That will be at Earth Theatre in Hackney on the 19th.

There are still some tickets left available from Dice or via the link in the description. On Thursday night, a US refueling plane crashed in western Iraq, killing four US service people.

The aircraft was lost while flying over friendly airspace on March 12th during Operation Epic Fury.

1:40.1

The circumstances of the incident are under investigation. However, the loss of the aircraft was not due to hostile fire or friendly fire.

but the region of Iraq where the crash took place

is one where pro-Iranian militias operate. And Iran's military claimed on state TV that an allied group

2:08.5

had targeted the plane with a missile. A second plane reported to have been another refueling jet by the Washington Post had landed safely.

That brings the total number of US service people killed

2:18.2

during the US and Israel's illegal war in Iran to 13, almost one a day since the two countries

2:23.7

attacked Iran two weeks ago. Over 170 US military personnel have so far been injured, with reports of
