Iran Signals a Fight to the End With Appointment of Khamenei’s Son Mojtaba Khamenei, close to Iran’s Revolutionary Guard, is expected to take a confrontational stance toward the West.

..."In addition to his father being killed at the beginning of the U.S.-Israeli campaign, the new leader has also lost his mother, wife and a son in the strikes."

Excellent conditions for peace, etc., especially when you murder a wife and children.

A Trump Order Protected a Weedkiller. And Also a Weapon of War.

Lindsey Graham’s Quest to Sell Trump on Striking Iran Few others in the president’s ear argued for the attack as effectively as South Carolina’s senior senator.

Extraordinary. Reporting by @wsj.com :

"The senator said he was already talking with Trump about further military interventions in Lebanon and potentially Cuba, which he said would happen soon. He wasn’t particularly concerned about what was next in Iran, he said."
