Autumn, Martyrs and the ‘Final Garden’ (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The harshest punishment is for the world to forget you or to view you as a patient with no hope of recovery. This is compounded by your lack of leverage. You have no straits to threaten with closure, nor a nuclear program to brandish by raising its enrichment levels. Amid the world's preoccupation with straits and arsenals, Netanyahu's army completes its major crime, executing a death sentence upon dozens of villages in southern Lebanon. Their guilt, as it claims, is that they were used to launc
Policeman of the Two Straits? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
An observer might get the impression that the memorandum of understanding signed by the US and Iran was closer to a memorandum of misunderstanding. The US wanted more from the war than what the memorandum provides, while Iran wanted something completely different. Donald Trump stresses that the war prevented Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon, though he certainly knows that the nuclear issue is not the entire problem. While the war did halt Iran's nuclear project - at least for the time being
Sept. 11’s Legacy Endures a Quarter-Century Later (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Rarely does a day deserve to be called “the day that shook the world.” September 11, 2001, claimed that distinction the moment it happened.

Read excerpt
Fifteen years after the fall of Moammar al-Gaddafi’s regime, the circumstances surrounding the disappearance of Imam Musa al-Sadr, head of Lebanon’s Supreme Islamic Shiite Council, during a visit to Libya on Aug. 31, 1978, remain unclear. Al-Sadr was accompanied by Sheikh Mohammed Yacoub and journalist Abbas Badreddine. No trace of the three men has ever been found. To date, Lebanese authorities have not disclosed the outcome of contacts they held with the forces that governed Libya after al-Gad
Near-Defeat and Near-Victory (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Is it true that, after six months of confrontation, the region remains trapped in a situation of near-defeat and near-victory, where near-defeat is not enough to force one to swallow the bitter pill of submission, and near-victory is insufficient to impose a surrender? Is it also true that Trump cannot withdraw the fleets without a victory, and that Mojtaba Khamenei cannot agree to a deal that would shake the regime’s image and clip its regional wings? It is no surprise that the generals of the
