“The Sinners” and the cinematic anatomy of Trumpism
TEHRAN- At first glance, Trumpism appears to be a distinctly contemporary political phenomenon, inseparable from the personality, rhetoric, and political career of Donald Trump. Yet reducing Trumpism to a single individual risks overlooking the deeper social and historical forces that made it possible.

Iran’s armed forces hit American regional bases in retaliation for US aggression against the country's territory

100+ days after the Pentagon vaporized a primary school in Minab, a look at the architects and accomplices behind the modern My Lai
TEHRAN — Over 100 days have passed since the missiles struck. Over 100 days of grief that does not diminish, of mothers holding schoolbooks of their martyred children, of small graves that should never have been dug.

Washington’s strategic miscalculation
Donya‑e‑Eqtesad argues that the core problem in negotiations lies in the US approach. Washington’s behavior in recent years — especially in recent days — shows that a significant part of its strategic calculations is based on the logic of the “chicken game.” According to this logic, the US continues economic and military pressure during negotiations and repeatedly violates the ceasefire in an attempt to force Tehran to retreat.

One policy, two parties: Washington and Iran
MADRID - Brett McGurk's recent remarks at a press conference — McGurk served as the White House coordinator for the Middle East under the Biden administration — illuminate one of the most durable political fictions in American foreign policy: that there exists any substantive difference between a Democratic and a Republican administration when it comes to Iran.

The rise of the Unified China: A new world order emerging from the ashes of hegemony
CAIRO – In the grand chessboard of international geopolitics, the board has been flipped. The era of unipolar hegemony, long dominated by the United States and its allies, is not just waning; it is being actively dismantled by the emergence of a "Unified China." This is no longer a prediction of the distant future but a reality of the present. We are witnessing the consolidation of a nation that has weathered the storm of containment, emerged victorious in the technological war, and restructured the global financial architecture to serve the Global South.

Restlessness of the Americans over reopening the Strait of Hormuz
Hamshahri, in an editorial, examined the growing impatience of American officials regarding the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz. The continued closure of the Strait of Hormuz has become the central point of contention between senators and Marco Rubio, and the patience of US political elites with the economic, security, and strategic consequences of the Trump administration’s military adventurism is wearing thin.

100 days of war: Iran's epic resistance
TEHRAN - One hundred days in politics and war is not just a number; it is a unit of judgment. Not so short that everything can be dismissed as chance or momentum, and not so long that history has had time to fully sediment the narrative. Within this relatively brief span, it becomes possible to discern whether a war is merely an “event” or a “process,” whether a crisis is heading toward quick closure or hardening into a prolonged, grinding condition.

Why Iranians stand with the Islamic Republic of Iran
VANCOUVER- Most Iranians see their government as the guardian of national sovereignty, security, territory and resources, and choose to move forward by building on the achievements of the 1979 Revolution, rather than regressing to a foreign-controlled puppet regime or falling into the abyss of a collapsed state.

The language of threat: How Western discourse constructs Iran
MADRID - The most consequential political fictions are those that no longer need defending. They operate below the threshold of argument, embedded in vocabulary, presupposed in syntax, circulating with the self-evidence of shared common sense. The Western, and particularly American, discourse on Iran offers a remarkably clean example of this mechanism.

Trump’s retreat in the face of Iran’s resilience, deterrence, and initiative
Sobh-e‑No, in its editorial, pointed to Trump’s retreat in the face of a powerful Iran regarding a potential agreement. The framework that can be outlined for an Iran–US agreement includes: Iran’s approval of passage through the Strait of Hormuz under a new management structure that did not exist before the war; Iran’s commitment not to build nuclear weapons—a commitment that already existed before the war; the lifting of oil sanctions; and the release of frozen assets, which together constitute a major strategic gain for Iran.

According to Kayhan, by proposing an exit from the military deadlock through imposing a “navigation cost,” Tehran is reshaping energy‑security equations in favor of its territorial sovereignty. Amid the United States’ final attempts to pressure Iran—and as peace negotiations reach 95% progress—a new paradigm has emerged in the region’s political discourse.
