    President Trump Pivots to Asia (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Unable to win the war against Iran, President Trump is unrolling a new strategy: pretending to win. The US-Iran ceasefire, honored mostly in the breach for its 60-day term, has lapsed, with no negotiations to extend it. President Trump has declared, “The Hormuz Strait is open and operating. All water mines have been removed or detonated,” and even boasted it will become US territory. Responding, Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf said, “The United States is in a state of despera

    Why We Should Fight (opens the original)

    Trump Abandons Freedom of Navigation (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Frustrated at the collapse of his poorly-considered Memorandum of Understanding with Iran, President Trump has declared the US will reimpose its blockade of the Strait of Hormuz and begin charging a 20 percent fee for passage. It’s genuinely astonishing for the government of the United States to blithely repudiate one of its most important contributions to international order. The US has been committed to freedom of the seas since 1778. We ensured the concept formed the basis of the UN Conventio
