Deterring Our Way to Doomsday (opens the original)
Read excerpt
by William Astore | Sep 29, 2026 | News | 2 comments Reprinted from Bracing Views with the author’s permission. It’s amazing the enormous sums of money the U.S. government spends on destructive weaponry in the stated cause of deterring massive destruction. It’s MAD, of course, this notion that peace is only attainable via the promise of annihilating another people. And now we know that annihilation won’t be limited to Russia or China or Iran: that a “general” nuclear strike would likely produce
The Chief Legacy of 9/11 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
by William Astore | Sep 9, 2026 | News | 10 comments Reprinted from Bracing Views with the author’s permission. The chief legacy of 9/11 is as obvious as it is tragic: a state of permanent warfare in the United States, both abroad and in the “homeland” (a term not used in normal discourse before the 9/11 attacks), with millions dead and displaced for no defensible reason. If you’re 25 years old or younger in America, you’ve never known a time when your country wasn’t at war. “Peace” is no longer

Read excerpt

Remember when attacks on Iran began, the Trump administration told us they’d be over in a matter of days, perhaps a few weeks, ending in Iran’s total defeat? Instead, the U.S
More Than 600 Casualties in the Iran War (opens the original)
Read excerpt
by William Astore | Jul 27, 2026 | News | 7 comments Reprinted from Bracing Views with the author’s permission. An article at the New York Times yesterday cites the creative accounting of the Trump administration on U.S. casualties in the Iran War. That count now exceeds 600 wounded, with eighteen service members killed. And for what, exactly? President Trump claims America’s service members are being killed and wounded so that Iran doesn’t get a nuclear bomb. However, his former Director of Nat
William Astore on Nuclear Mass Death (opens the original)
Read excerpt
by William Astore | Jul 8, 2026 | News | 8 comments Reprinted from Bracing Views with the author’s permission. Mark Twain was right when he said history may not repeat itself, but it often rhymes. Consider America’s approach to nuclear weapons. Under Ronald Reagan in the early 1980s, America’s strategic nuclear triad was modernized at immense cost. One hundred B-1 bombers were built. The stealthy B-2 bomber followed. MX “Peacekeeper” ICBMs were deployed. New Ohio-class nuclear subs armed with Tr
