Who decided to attack Iran this weekend? And who will decide how this war proceeds?
The Guardian’s chief Middle East correspondent, Emma Graham-Harrison, reports from Jerusalem on the mood in Israel four days into the latest conflict, and the widespread public support so far for the assassination of Iran’s Ayatollah Khamenei.
