Portents of Yet Another U.S. Debacle in Iran?

October 19, 2026
Eve Ottenberg
Donald “Blockade Everybody” Trump has said he is waiting till after the midterms to attack Iran again. This assault, he vows, will be the biggest blitz of the Iran War (though more recently he downplays the whole putative project), and he even rumbles that U.S. forces may invade (Ho! Ho!) But if it is the biggest, so will be Tehran’s response: so Israel would get barbecued, the remaining U.S. bases in the region would be obliterated, zero, zilch, nada, zip oil would leave the region and maybe an American aircraft carrier or two would be sunk. For all these reasons, Trump’s threatened blitzkrieg would be lunacy, and is very unlikely ever to happen. It’s such obvious lunacy, especially given that Tehran has defeated Washington pretty consistently so far, that one must wonder if this appearance of insanity isn’t the point, namely Richard Nixon’s “madman” approach to foreign policy.

پیشرفت تکنولوژی

یکی‌ از فوائد عصر کامپیوتر دسترسی به اطلاعات و اخبار است که گاهی‌ بطور رایگان توسط شرکت‌های غیر انتفاعی مانند ویکیپدیا در دسترس کسانی‌ که به آن اطلاعات علاقه دارند قرار می‌گیرد. بسیاری از آگاهی‌های تاریخی، همچون زیست‌نامه یا بیوگرافی‌، را می‌توان از این شبکه دریافت کرد. یکی‌ دیگر از شبکه‌های اینترنتی که کاربرد آن همواره رو به افزایش است، گوگل می‌باشد. با نوشتن یک واژه یا جمله در گوگل می‌توان اطلاعات وسیعی در مورد آن واژه یا جمله کسب کرد. گرچه گوگل یک شرکت انتفاعی است و درآمد آن از تبلیغات است، ولی‌ فردِ استفاده کننده از این تسهیلات به ندرت متوجهٔ آن تبلیغ می‌شود. هر دوی این شبکه‌ها را می‌توان قرن بیست و یکمی نامید، چرا که گوگل دو سال پیش از پایان قرن بیستم، و ویکیپدیا از نخستین سال این قرن با ما بوده‌ا‌ند. افرادی‌ که مطالب این دو شبکه را می‌نویسند متنوع و آگاه می‌باشند، بخصوص که مطالب هر دو این سازمان‌ها را می‌توان به چالش کشید. جالب اینجاست که بسیاری از شبکه‌های اینترنتی را می‌توان به چندین زبان که در دنیا مُحاوره می‌شوند، از جمله زبان فارسی، جستجو کرد.ا

John Feffer
The Iran War has claimed thousands of lives, most of them in Iran itself. The war has cost Iran as much as $300 billion in economic damage. For its part, the Pentagon spent nearly $44 billion through mid-September to wreak that amount of havoc. For advocates of the war—but no one else—that’s a good return on investment.

Trump’s Destruction of the National Security Process

October 12, 2026
Melvin Goodman
In 1947, the U.S. Congress passed the National Security Act, which created the National Security Council, the Department of Defense, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and the Central Intelligence Agency.  These institutions were often misused during the worst days of the Cold War and, more recently, in the Global War on Terror.  Nevertheless, there are historical records on the decision making that took place, and there were successes in such fields as arms control and disarmament as well as the building of national security alliances in Europe and Asia.
