The Strait of #Hormuz is blocked, unblocked, reblocked. Speaking on a panel @arabcenterdc.org hours before the #USIsraelIran #war, I said this will be the pattern for the region for the foreseeable future: a state of escalation, de-escalation & re-escalation.

Ongoing Iran‑US‑Israel War: Escalating Strikes, Regional Fallout and Diplomatic Tensions in 2026 The Wall Street Journal’s live coverage tracks the intensifying conflict between Iran, the United States, and Israel in early 2026, which erupted after a major joint U.S.–Israeli strike campaign known as Operation Epic Fury. The offensive, launched on February 28, involved hundreds of airstrikes targeting Iranian missile systems, air defenses, and key leadership figures, including Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, whose reported death has further destabilized Tehran’s hierarchy. In retaliation, Iran has unleashed waves of ballistic missiles and drones at U.S. bases across the Gulf, Israel, and allied infrastructure, triggering widespread alarm in the region and prompting multiple intercept attempts by U.S., Israeli, and Gulf‑state air defenses. The conflict has already exacted heavy human and material costs, with fatalities reported in Iran, Israel, Lebanon, and neighboring countries, while civilian infrastructure such as schools, hospitals, and energy facilities has been damaged. The Trump administration has framed the war as a decisive effort to degrade Iran’s regional influence, even as questions mount about long‑term consequences and the risk of broader regional escalation. NATO allies have expressed concern over being drawn into hostilities, U.S. lawmakers and security officials have voiced unease about the scale of the conflict, and travel and commercial activity around the Middle East have been disrupted. The live coverage also highlights shifting battlefield dynamics, including a reported sharp drop in Iranian missile and drone launches, targeted assassinations of Iranian security and militia leaders, and the expansion of the conflict into neighboring arenas such as Lebanon and the Strait of Hormuz.

Israel Is Ready to Use a Nuclear Weapon in Iran By Retired Colonel Lawrence Wilkerson The United States‑Israeli war on Iran has entered its second week, and the rhetoric coming from Washington and Tel Aviv grows increasingly detached from reality. President Trump offers contradictory assessments—declaring the war “very complete” one moment, then insisting it is merely the “beginning of building a new country” the next—while Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu appears to have grasped the true nature of the conflict far more clearly than his American counterparts.

🚨 Ret. Col. Lawrence Wilkerson: "Israel is ready to use a nuclear weapon in Iran." As U.S.-Israeli strikes hit civilians & oil sites, Iran holds back its best missiles. War crimes mount, empire retreats—time for Congress to stop this madness. Full op-ed: [link]. #IranWar #NuclearRisk #USIsraelIran

One must also ask: does the Putin friendly BiBi Netanyahu also have catastrophic kompromat on Trump? So much so, in fact, that Trump would capitulate to Netanyahu’s scheme to pull the US into a disastrous illegal war with #Iran?
