Iran Preparing To Fight A FOREVER WAR
Cenk Uygur and John Iadarola discuss how Trumpâs war with Iran is pushing Tehran to dig in for a prolonged conflict.
Surprise strikes signal Iran is digging in for a long war
(August 6, 2026)
In recent weeks, Iran has gone on the offensive, striking commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz and launching a surprise attack on U.S. forces in Jordan. From a distance, these moves look like self-defeating escalation. Why should a badly damaged state, under severe economic pressure, lash out at the U.S. instead of pushing for a ceasefire?
The answer, simply put, is that Iran is digging in for a long war. Whatever Washington‘s intentions, Tehran increasingly interprets sanctions, negotiations, temporary ceasefires and military strikes as different instruments aimed at a single objective: regime change.
As long as this primary objective remains, Iran expects no sanctions relief or meaningful de-escalation. My conversations with Iranian foreign policy analysts suggest that Tehran now believes the war will continue in different forms until the end of Donald Trump‘s presidency.
Der Iran wird zu einem Verlierer des Westasienkrieges
(July 19, 2026)
Irgendeine Gruppe oder Fraktion hat die StaatsfĂŒhrung des Iran ĂŒbernommen, in deren Interesse nicht der Iran selbst, sondern die FortfĂŒhrung des Krieges auf unabsehbare Zeit steht. Welche Rolle dabei der Sohn des in der ersten Angriffswelle auf den Iran am 28. Februar ermordeten âObersten FĂŒhrersâ (âSupreme Leaderâ) Ali Khamenei, Mojtaba Khamenei spielt, erscheint völlig unklar. Bisher ist er nicht in der Ăffentlichkeit aufgetreten. Ausgerechnet ĂŒber israelische Medien wird gestreut, dies werde so bleiben bis zum unabsehbaren Ende des Krieges. Die formal dem âObersten FĂŒhrerâ unterstellten Revolutionsgarden agieren gegen die iranischen Interessen. Gewinner des Krieges sind u.a. Ălmagnate, Kriegsproduzenten und der internationale geheimdienstliche Komplex, nicht zuletzt in der Russischen Föderation, sowie der zum Machterhalt auf Krieg und externe Bedrohung angewiesene Machthaber in Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu.
Dabei ist das Interesse der Kriegsgewinnler auf allen Seiten den Westasienkrieg insgesamt noch auszuweiten.
Iran just appointed a national joke to lead security â this is what panic looks like
(August 7, 2026)
He has always had a rather delusional â and at times almost comical â view of security and intelligence affairs. He has a profoundly disturbed mind and a brain empty of knowledge, yet he is highly deceptive and destructive.
Like other Guard officers who once served as secretaries of the Supreme National Security Council, he is intensely anti-Israel. He will therefore naturally pursue the Iranian regimeâs terrorist plans against Israel and greater coordination with terrorist groups across the Shiite crescent. Although the illusion that Mojtaba Khamenei is still alive continues to be raised, Rezaei is among those who fight for the survival of power and preservation of the regime.
Iran appoints new Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council
(August 6, 2026)
Iranian media reported on Thursday that former Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps commander Mohsen Rezaei had been appointed secretary of Iranâs Supreme National Security Council (SNSC).
Iranian attack kills worker at Chinese company building in Kuwait
An Iranian attack targeted a building belonging to a Chinese company in northern Kuwait, killing one worker, the Kuwaiti army said Thursday.
Defense Ministry spokesman Saud Al-Atwan said the âIranian aggressionâ struck the building, causing extensive material damage
US launches strikes on Iran after Trump says itâs „our turn“ following intercepted Iranian attack
(10 hr 54 min ago)
âWeâre going to be hitting them very hard because itâs our turn to hit them. They know itâs coming,â Trump told reporters in the Oval Office on Wednesday.
On Tuesday night, Iranâs Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps launched multiple ballistic missiles towards US forces in the region, and Jordanâs military said it intercepted five missiles.
Der Iran wird zu einem Verlierer des Westasienkrieges
(July 19, 2026)
FĂŒr den einigermaĂen wachen Beobachter erscheint es, als ob Mossad, CIA, MI6 und BND in Teheran an der Macht wĂ€ren und sich einen ihren ĂŒblichen grausamen Scherze erlauben.
US air base, CENTCOM headquarters in Jordan targeted: IRGC
Tehran, IRNA â The Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) says that its Aerospace Force has targeted a US air base and the US militaryâs CENTCOM headquarters in Jordan with ballistic missiles.
In a statement issued early Wednesday, the IRGC Aerospace Force said the attack was carried out in response to aggressive actions by the US military against Iran.
The brave combatants of the IRGC Aerospace Force targeted the US air base and the CENTCOM headquarters of the US military in Jordan with several ballistic missiles, the statement said.
Anschlag auf den CSD: Dobrindt stuft Tat als âislamistischen Terroranschlagâ ein
Am Sonntagnachmittag trat Bundesinnenminister Alexander Dobrindt vor die Presse und stufte die Tat als âislamistischen Terroranschlagâ ein. Auch die Ermittler gehen von einem islamistischen Terroranschlag aus.
Laut CSU-Chef Markus Söder zielte der Angriff auf die freiheitlich-demokratische Grundordnung in Deutschland. âEr ist auch ein bewusster Anschlag auf die Freiheitsidee unseres Landes. Und deswegen muss auch mit aller HĂ€rte dagegen vorgegangen werdenâ, sagte der bayerische MinisterprĂ€sident im ZDF-Sommerinterview.
Iran asks Houthis to block Red Sea if US hits energy sites: Reports
Iranian officials have asked Yemenâs Houthis to block the Red Sea if the U.S. carries out strikes on Tehranâs energy sites, according to Reuters.
Two senior Iranian sources and a regional source familiar with the matter reportedly told the outlet that the Houthis had been informed of the request, which was discussed within the Islamic Republicâs leadership.
Iran unexpectedly backs Trumpâs plan to charge ships in Strait of Hormuz â then declares Tehran will collect the money
Araghchi agreed that whoever provides safe passage for commercial vessels through the Strait should be paid for the service.
Then came the catch.
„Iran has always been the GUARDIAN of the Strait and will remain so FOREVER,“ he wrote on X.
And as for Trump‘s proposed price?
„20% is of course too much. We will be fair.“
Trump is âvery seriousâ about Hormuz toll push
President Donald Trump is âvery seriousâ about his plan to impose a 20% toll on cargo transiting through the Strait of Hormuz, a White House official told Semafor, asserting that itâs a plan heâs wanted to move forward with for months.
The president has long flirted with the idea of charging a toll, wondering back in April âwhy shouldnâtâ his administration do so and threatening to impose fees in June if a deal with Iran was not completed within a 60-day period.
Trump‘s Strait of Hormuz fee would have cost millions, opened „a very dangerous Pandora‘s Box,“ experts say
„Whether the going rate is $200 or $20m, there is no legal basis for charging vessels to exercise their right of transit passage through an international strait,“ Lloyd‘s List editor Richard Meade wrote Monday. „Whether such demands originate in Tehran or Washington is largely beside the point. The danger lies in normalising the idea that access to one of the world‘s most important maritime arteries can be subject to politically conditioned payments.“
Trumpâs ridiculous Hormuz proposal is the last thing the world needs
The strait was open before the US and Israel joined forces to wage war on Iran, only to have that nation slam it shut. Some vessels got through during the ceasefire, with Iran charging $3 million for a fully loaded supertanker to transit the strait.
Trumpâs threatened toll would jack that cost up to $69 million.
Trump proposes 20% toll on cargo through Strait of Hormuz; restarts Iran blockade
President Donald Trump on Monday said the U.S. will impose fees in the Strait of Hormuz âat the rate of 20% on all cargo shipped,â after declaring America the âguardianâ of the major oil shipping route.
U.S. military to enforce new Iran blockade starting 4pm Tuesday
President Trump announced on Monday that the U.S. is reinstating the naval blockade on Iran and will prevent any ships from leaving or entering Iranian ports. The blockade will go into effect on July 14 at 4pm ET.
Trump also claimed the U.S. would be „reimbursed“ at a rate of 20% for securing safe passage for cargo ships, though the details and seriousness of the initiative were not immediately clear.
UKMTO issues warning after report of fire on board container ship
The United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO) says it has received a report of an incident some nine nautical miles (about 17km) east of the Omani coast.
âMilitary authorities have reported that a container ship has sustained damage to the rear of the vessel, which has caused a fire on board,â it said.
âVessels are advised to transit with caution,â it added.
The alert came moments after CENTCOM announced the start of a third round of strikes on Iran, citing an Iranian attack on a Cyprus-flagged ship in the strait.
EU-Parlament: Freiwillige Chatkontrolle geht mit Verfahrenstrick durch
Verhandlungen zu Chatkontrolle 2.0 in der Zielgeraden
Um diesen langfristigen Ansatz ringt die EU seit geraumer Zeit. Neben einer dauerhaften Regelung fĂŒr das Scannen unverschlĂŒsselter Inhalte sollte der Vorschlag der EU-Kommission auch dafĂŒr sorgen, dass Material vor seiner VerschlĂŒsselung durchleuchtet und gegebenenfalls an Behörden gemeldet wird â eine Technik, die als Client-Side-Scanning bekannt ist.
âEs gibt keine Gesellschaft mehr. Was es gibt, ist eine transnationale Sicherheitselite, die damit beschĂ€ftigt ist, die Welt mit Ihren Steuergeldern unter sich (und ihresgleichen) aufzuteilen.
Die Kriegstreiber in diesem Land und anderen LĂ€ndern haben ein BĂŒndnis geschlossen, um Geld aus den USA, der EU, aus jedem NATO-Staat heraus- und zu den eigenen (Finanz-)Eliten zurĂŒckzuschleusen, indem sie es im Blut der Menschen waschen, das in den Kriegen in Afghanistan, dem Irak, Somalia, dem Jemen, Pakistan vergossen wird.â
JĂŒngere werden vielleicht erschrecken, und vielleicht auch Vergessliche unter den Ălteren, weil die SĂ€tze, die Julian Assange 2011 auf der Antikriegsdemonstration in London gesagt hat, SĂ€tze sind, die er gestern gesagt haben könnte. Sie beschreiben nĂ€mlich ein Muster: das Muster westlicher Wertekriege und ihrer drei wiederkehrenden Wesensmerkmale: Die Werte, mit denen sie legitimiert werden, gibt es nĂ€mlich nicht – jedenfalls nicht bei denen, die vorgeben, sie mit vorgehaltener Waffe zu vertreten. Und: Sie – ausnahmslos Angriffs- & Profitkriege – werden von der als âVerteidigungsbĂŒndnisâ vermarkteten NATO âantizipiertâ, orchestriert & exekutiert und ziehen die weitere Vermögenskonzentration in den HĂ€nden Weniger nach sich, womit sie – ausnahmslos, aber nicht ausschlieĂlich – der Profitmehrung professioneller Kriegsprofiteure dienen.
Immer dasselbe – in zeitlichen Schleifen, auratischen Wellen, historischen Episoden. Dasselbe eine Muster, wieder und wieder: dieselben knarzenden Argumentationsschemata & Narrationsabsolutismen. Dieselben Behauptungen, Tatsachenverdrehungen, Selbstvergewisserungen.
Dazu der immer selbe Raub an der Gesellschaft und den Menschen, die sie tragen. Dieselbe soziale Verarmung, dieselbe geistige Leere und dieselbe ethische Verelendung. Und immer dasselbe Elitenbereicherungs-, âSicherheitsâ-, âFeindesâ- & Tötungsmuster. Wieder und wieder und wieder.
Wir, die wir alt genug sind, uns (mit Assange) an die letzte Welle westlicher Wertekriege zu erinnern, können den erinnerungslosen JĂŒngeren heute nur eines sagen, nĂ€mlich: dass sie sich einmal erinnern werden. Wenn sie, nachdem (in 15 Jahren) die nĂ€chste Welle westlicher Wertekriege losgebrochen sein wird, ihrerseits auf erinnerungslose Junge treffen.
Assange hatte schon damals und hat noch heute recht. Wir mĂŒssen eigene Netzwerke und BĂŒndnisse schlieĂen, um unsere Werte gegen den eigennĂŒtzigen Zynismus der Kriegstreiber zu behaupten. In diesem Land und anderen LĂ€ndern.
Heute vor 2 Jahren war Julian Assange nach 14jÀhriger politischer Verfolgung & Haft endlich wieder frei.
Iran warns Israel‘s Beirut strike could derail U.S. deal
Behind the scenes: The Israeli military notified the U.S. Central Command shortly before the Beirut strike, Israeli and U.S. officials say.
It is not clear whether the White House gave it a green light.
What they are saying: Iranian chief negotiator Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf signaled the Israeli strike on Beirut could undermine the U.S.âIran deal.
About the West Asia War
You are an idiot. And youâre not alone with that. Even a small group of people out of the eight billion people on Earth could have stopped the West Asia War; the onslaught in Palestine, Lebanon, Syria, Yemen, Iran and even in Israel. But not a single parliament, lawmaker, NGO, journalist, or whatever-movement on Earth, not even the Good Guys, have been digging into the core of the issue; of what really happened.
And I can prove it.
Statement attributable to the Spokesperson for the Secretary-General – on the Eleventh Review Conference of the Parties to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT)
Delivered by Stéphane Dujarric, Spokesman for the Secretary-General
The Secretary-General expresses his disappointment at the inability of the Eleventh Review Conference of the Parties to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT) to reach consensus on a substantive outcome and to seize this critical opportunity to make our world safer.
UN event on nuclear non-proliferation treaty stumbles, US and Iran clash
There was no consensus among the 191 parties to the NPT, the third failure in a row at a conference reviewing the treaty
(…)
Britainâs Rebecca Johnson, founding executive director of the Acronym Institute for Disarmament Diplomacy, had harsh criticism for both the US and Russia, the two largest nuclear powers, which she said âdouble down on nuclear threats, blame others and try to undermine or ignore the NPTâs nuclear disarmament commitments and related agreementsâ.
Israel threatens Gaza war resumption to force disarmament as âtruceâ frays
In the shattered neighbourhoods of Khan Younis and Deir el-Balah in the Gaza Strip, the roar of Israeli drones and the concussive thud of controlled demolitions are daily reminders that the war has never really ended.
Despite a âceasefireâ in place since October, families continue to pull bodies from the rubble. According to local medical sources, 828 Palestinians have been killed since the âtruceâ began. Now, families in Gaza are bracing for a renewed offensive as Israeli officials threaten to tear up the fragile agreement to force a surrender.
Exclusive: US to close its flagship Gaza mission as Trump plan stalls, sources say
(May 1, 2026)
A U.S. military-run body near Gaza that critics say failed in its mission to monitor the Israel-Hamas ceasefire and boost aid flows to besieged Palestinians is set to be shut by the Trump administration, sources âfamiliar with the matter told Reuters.
The closing of the Civil-Military Coordination Centre in Israel would mark the latest blow to President Donald Trump‘s Gaza plan, already undermined by repeated Israeli attacks since âthe October truce and a refusal by Hamas to lay down its arms.
