Can I pre-empt an event on my opponent's card, and can a persistent event be pre-empted?

The rulebook limits pre-empting to your own cards, but the persistent-event point rests on posters agreeing the rules make no exception.

No to the first: you can pre-empt only the event on a card you yourself play, and you must pay before your opponent decides. Yes to the second: a persistent event can be pre-empted, and the pre-empted card is discarded rather than removed from the game.
