If Washington truly wants peace in the Middle East (a rather gargantuan if, I know) it will need to accommodate itself to reality: The U.S. can’t force Iran to accept all its hardline demands, so the White House needs to make meaningful concessions. For over a year now, the Trump administration hasn’t been in a concessive mood. That’s one reason the American–Israeli war with Iran kicked off in late February. And it’s one reason the U.S. and Iran are having trouble reaching a stable peace agreement now, in the middle of a two-week ceasefire. Tomorrow during talks in Islamabad, they’ll…
In November 2023, about a year after Elon Musk took over Twitter, Media Matters for America made a splash with a report claiming that the platform, by then rebranded as X, was “placing ads for Apple, Bravo, IBM, Oracle, and Xfinity next to pro-Nazi content.” Musk responded by threatening a “thermonuclear lawsuit” against Media Matters, while Stephen Miller, now a White House deputy chief of staff, suggested that “conservative state Attorneys General” should investigate the organization for “fraud.” Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton and Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey took Miller’s advice, launching investigations that were ultimately blocked by federal…

In early March, a U.S. submarine torpedoed an Iranian warship in the Indian Ocean. The ship, a frigate called the IRIS Dena, had been docked at an Indian port just days earlier – an invited guest at India’s flagship multinational naval exercise. It had participated in a ceremonial parade attended by India’s president, Droupadi Murmu. After the U.S. sank it on the way home, India’s sole public response focused on “humanitarian search-and-rescue.” Days earlier, on Feb. 26, Modi had visited Israel, addressing the Knesset and embracing Prime Minister Netanyahu in a highly publicized state visit. Two days after that, U.S.…
A blockade of the Strait of Hormuz sounds like a clean, decisive move until you run it through the real world: geography, international law, ship insurance, and the uncomfortable question of what happens when the other side shoots back. We sit down with Lt Col Karen Kwiatkowski to parse Trump’s threat to interdict ships tied to Iranian oil and why “the greatest navy in the world” is not the same thing as a navy that can safely enforce a blockade in a narrow, heavily contested chokepoint. We dig into the operational side of maritime power, from US shipbuilding constraints to costly programs…
