On 26 June 1993, US warships launched a Tomahawk cruise missile attack on Baghdad in retaliation for an alleged April 1993 assassination attempt on George H.W. Bush in Kuwait. The attack killed 8 civilians, including the world-renowned artist Layla al-Attar.
The audio featured here is from a Democracy Now! commentary by Dennis Bernstein, broadcast on 20 February 1998. The text was later published in Salon as "Uncle Sam regrets," and it includes information gathered by Bernstein in an interview with Layla al-Attar's daughter, Rema.

Do you know how can we reach Rima, Layla's duaghter? Perhaps the narrator, Denis, knows her whereabout. We are a tax-exempt organization and wish to speak with Rima to do a special in memory of Layla's murder. Thank you for posting this wonderful clip in memory of Layla. Please note that Rima in Arabic is written as ريمة and not ربقة as appear in the clip. Thanks again for bringing attention to a forgotten world-class artist.
