The US Cannot Defeat Iran

On 10 July 2026, I was on the “Deep Dive” with Lt. Col. (ret.) Danny Davis, where we talked mainly about Iran, although we did discuss Ukraine in the last part of the show. On Iran, we talked about the tit-for-tat bombing campaign between Iran and the US that has replaced the failed strategic bombing campaign (28 February—8 April 2026) and the failed naval blockade (13 April-17 June 2026). Now, the …………………………

Inflation Declines, But the Crisis Is Far From Over

Posted Jul 15, 2026 by Martin Armstrong |

June’s Consumer Price Index fell 0.4% for the month, pulling the annual inflation rate down to 3.5% from 4.2% in May. Core inflation, excluding food and energy, remained flat for the month and slowed to 2.6% year over year. Predictably, markets immediately began betting that the Federal Reserve will soon ride to the rescue with lower interest rates. They continue trying to force the economy into a textbook model that has never explained how the world actually functions.

He’s presented as particularly unique due to his more “centrist” position as someone who’s ……………………

Quo Vadis, Donald? Defeat and opportunity for the US Empire.

Matthew Hoh Jun 19, 2026

Rome ruled mankind, but it was also its cesspool and its seeping ulcer. It reeked of death and corpses. Death’s shadow lay over its decomposing life…All that passed for life in this capital of the earth seemed suddenly like some kind of mad processional for capering buffoons, a dance of mindless clowns, and a bloody orgy that had to end by its own excess.

~Quo Vadis, Henryk Sienkiewicz

For those, particularly on American media, asking: what do the Americans get out of this MOU with Iran?

Die einen veranstalten den Parteitag, die anderen wollen einen antifaschistischen Kampf mit 100 Jahren Verspätung führen. Und meine Gedanken reisen derweil zu einem 50. Jahrestag, der irgendwie mehr Zuversicht vermittelt.

By Caitlin Johnstone CaitlinJohnstone.com June 23, 2026

A spirituality that is uninterested in ending war, genocide, poverty and injustice is a dead spirituality. If you hold your time on the meditation cushion as something separate from the weeping mother clutching a small body in Lebanon, you’re wasting your time.

Wither Away the Iran Deal?

By John J. Mearsheimer John’s Substack June 23, 2026

On 21 June 2026, I was on Tom Switzer’s podcast — “Switzerland” — with Trita Parsi. We focused almost exclusively on the negotiations between Iran and the US, which had begun earlier that day in a resort near Lake Lucerne in Switzerland. It is fair to say those negotiations got off to an inauspicious start, raising doubts about whether the two sides would ever reach a deal.

One of the most closely-watched races is the Senate campaign in Maine, where upstart Democrat Graham Platner is favored to end Sen. Susan Collins’s long political career.

Slovakia’s Constitutional Court Fires a Warning Shot at Debt Addiction

Posted Jun 19, 2026 by Martin Armstrong |

The politicians always promise everything to everyone because that is how they get elected. They hand out benefits, expand programs, borrow endlessly, and then leave the bill for the next generation. What has made this crisis even worse across Europe is that governments have become addicted to debt while pretending there are no consequences. Now Slovakia’s Constitutional Court has stepped into the middle ………………………

Der völlig ungenierte Tendenzjournalismus macht weiter

Europe 2031

What getting AI wrong means for us

Daan Juijn, Stan van Baarsen, Judith Dada, Maximilian Negele, Lily Stelling, Philip Fox, Alex Petropoulos, and Michiel Bakker.Copywriting and editing by Tom Chivers.

The current trajectory of AI calls for the most ambitious political agenda in the history of post-war Europe. Unless we embark on it now, Europe will lose the ability to shape its own future. We will end up economically and politically sidelined, with values we cannot defend, social welfare systems we can no longer fund, risks we cannot address, and a Union that cannot hold.

The “Deal”

I love my country. What if Russia and Iran are coordinating an exacerbation of a two front war against “West”? Russia just warned embassies in Kiev to evacuate, signaling upcoming intensification. Iran just goaded US into firing missiles when MoU was near signing. Xi met with Putin right after Trump’s visit, and per news, Chinese and Iranian foreign ministries continue to communicate.

The following is based on information I received from a knowledgeable source with access to the negotiations. It mirrors my analysis.

A Negotiated Settlement for a Sovereign Iran Is Nigh Impossible

Trump today seems torn between the prospect of ‘heavy’ military escalation and an extended Hormuz blockade.

Putting two sides together — let alone three — who have wildly diverse chronicles of their histories and even less commonality in charting their future national trajectory was innately unlikely to reach an agreed settlement. More likely in such ill-prepared encounters is often an ill-tempered recapitulation of the general lack of congruence.

Whether or not a war is just does not affect the morality of how war is to be conducted.

Is Iran Negotiating Badly?

On Sunday, April 19th, Trump twice repeated his threat to destroy Iran: “We’re offering a very fair and reasonable DEAL, and I hope they take it because, if they don’t, the United States is going to knock out every single Power Plant, and every single Bridge, in Iran. NO MORE MR. NICE GUY!” and “If they don’t sign this deal, the whole country is going to get blown up”.

She would be no longer the ruler of her own spirit.” Even as American foreign policy has warped in many of the ways Adams foresaw, it has been unable to bury his powerful words.

For the Austrian School of economic thought, the methodological foundation is unshakable: the praxeology of Ludwig von Mises is based on an a priori logic of human activity, which fundamentally does not need statistical models or empirics for its justification.

Will President Trump Strike Iranian Bridges and Power Stations This Coming Week, As He Promised?

On 19 July 2026, I was on “The Chris Hedges Report”, talking just about Iran — unsurprisingly.

The Ideology Behind the American Revolution

By Wanjiru Njoya Mises.org July 22, 2026

In his book The Vision of the Anointed, Thomas Sowell argues that most people’s political opinions are shaped by “a particular set of underlying assumptions about the world—a certain vision of reality.” By vision, he means an instinctive sense of the correct way of understanding the world and making sense of what we see or hear.

The Vendée: The French War for National Liberation

In his exhaustive study of the American Revolution, Conceived in Liberty, Murray Rothbard describes the American revolution as the first “successful war of national liberation” and “a people’s war, waged by the majority of Americans having the courage and the zeal to rise up against constituted ‘legitimate’ government, [and throw] off their ‘sovereign.’” How was this liberation to be achieved?

The Predatory Logic of the State

07/16/2026 Agustín Toptschij

Governance—understood as the set of mechanisms aimed at coordinating social life and regulating conflict—has been a constant feature of human existence from the moment people find themselves living in proximity to one another. Far from being an abstract category, it is a tool for peace and prosperity.

It does not follow, however, that political centralization—so prevalent today—is inherent to every form of governance. Political centralization is not new; the state, however, is.

How to Honor the Dead US Service Members

Over the weekend the Pentagon announced that four more US soldiers have been killed in President Trump’s war on Iran. That brings the total to 17, but many believe the real number of dead US servicemembers is much higher than that. The Pentagon has claimed it has no obligation to reveal how many military personnel have been injured, which suggests that number may be much higher than we are hearing. Many of these injuries will be horrific and life-altering.

Inflation Declines, But the Crisis Is Far From Over

Posted Jul 15, 2026 by Martin Armstrong |

June’s Consumer Price Index fell 0.4% for the month, pulling the annual inflation rate down to 3.5% from 4.2% in May. Core inflation, excluding food and energy, remained flat for the month and slowed to 2.6% year over year. Predictably, markets immediately began betting that the Federal Reserve will soon ride to the rescue with lower interest rates. They continue trying to force the economy into a textbook model that has never explained how the world actually functions.

The Depression of 1784: Revolutionary Inflation and Post-Revolution Depression

07/10/2026  Joshua Mawhorter

For many Americans, even lovers of American history, myself included, there are certain blank spots and gaps in knowledge. While we can appreciate that history can be and is used propagandistically to affirm certain narratives—usually by emphasis and deemphasis—it is also often the case that time constraints and desire to focus on other events helps create these gaps. One common gap is the period between the American Revolution and the Philadelphia Convention.

An Institution We Can Never Trust, and One We Can

By George F. Smith June 26, 2026 Trust: That upon which confidence is reposed.

A body of men, holding themselves accountable to nobody, ought not to be trusted by anybody. — Thomas Paine, Rights of Man

Most people don’t trust politicians, yet they dominate our lives. How did this arrangement come about?

Trust is a critical consideration in every relationship.  Do people mean what they say?  Do they deliver on their promises?  If enough people didn’t trust Amazon it would have folded long ago.  Friends would cease being friends if they proved untrustworthy.

Iran Takes Its Chances With War

By Alastair Crooke Strategic Culture June 9, 2026

This phase of the Iranian conflict likely will only end when the West falls off the approaching economic cliff.

The U.S. war with Iran has moved beyond its initial phase to an emerging new one — one in which Iran implicitly stakes its chances on the next phase being war. Most likely this will be in abbreviated episodes of limited war, but possessing nevertheless a potential to widen regionally, should the U.S. (and Israel) ………………….

Not since the notorious 2012 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) provided for indefinite detention of American citizens, has the annual funding bill been as misused as this year. Embedded in the bill is an insult to every American who values our national sovereignty. The NDAA’s Section 224, the ………………….

Erzwungene „Wehrpflicht“ – wer schützt vor den „Beschützern“?

8. Juni 2026 – von Rainer Fassnacht

Blickt man handlungslogisch auf die Themen „Wehrpflicht“ und „der Staat als Sicherheitsgarant“, wird deutlich, dass in beiden Fällen eine große Täuschung vorliegt. Diese Täuschung ist keineswegs ein modernes Phänomen, sondern reicht weit zurück. Wie kam es zu der heute weitverbreiteten Annahme, dass der Staat (beziehungsweise Menschen mit Macht und Zugriff auf einen „Zwangsapparat“) für Sicherheit – nach innen und außen – verantwortlich sein sollte?

The Affordability Crisis Is a Sovereign Debt Problem

06/06/2026 Michael Dioguardi

Previously, I have argued that sovereign credit systems are structurally biased toward expansion: crises justify new interventions, those interventions are never fully reversed, and each cycle leaves behind a higher institutional baseline than before. The Cantillon effect ensures that the gains from monetary expansion distribute unevenly, flowing first to those nearest the financial system.

A mastermind of Trump’s hardline Latin American policies, Mauricio Claver-Carone no longer serves in the administration. But according to well-placed sources, he’s “picking who can operate” in Venezuela, controlling access to the government, and creating conflicts of interest.

Murray Rothbard on War and “Isolationism”

05/25/2026 • Mises Wire • Murray N. Rothbard

Q: Why, in your view, is isolationism an essential tenet of libertarian foreign policy?

A: The libertarian position, generally, is to minimize state power as much as possible, down to zero, and isolationism is the full expression in foreign affairs of the domestic objective of whittling down state power. In other words, interventionism is the opposite of isolationism, and of course it goes on up to war, ……………………

Das Lahme-Enten-Trio

Von Peter Grimm • Friedrich Merz ist nicht der einzige Möchtegern-Weltpolitiker am Ende seiner Möglichkeiten. Dieses Schicksal teilt er mit Emmanuel Macron und Keir Starmer. Diese drei Regierenden auf Abruf hatten in den letzten Monaten noch versucht, sich gegenseitig bei Auftritten als Staatsmänner-Trio zu stützen. Vergeblich: International wie national wird ihnen ihre wachsende Machtlosigkeit vorgeführt.

Both the Japanese and German models, then, had real achievements. Both produced world-class companies and generated admiration. Both, however, also concealed the same poison: the gradual conversion of the private company into a social institution whose first duty is no longer to create value, but to preserve existing arrangements.

More likely in such ill-prepared encounters is often an ill-tempered recapitulation of the general lack of congruence.

When a Chicken Isn’t Just a Chicken

A man stands at a farmers market stall. His wife is talking to the farmer. He picks up a chicken. Paper-wrapped, no barcode, a handwritten tag on the twine. He holds it close to read the label and sets it back down fast. The price is an insult. What are these people thinking?

Whether or not a war is just does not affect the morality of how war is to be conducted.

Trump Does TACO Tuesday, But Still Sabotages Exit Ramp… JCPOA 2

22 April 2026 by Larry C. Johnson

The saga of TACO Trump (i.e., Trump Always Chickens Out) continues to add new chapters… A few hours before the end of the two week ceasefire with Iran, Trump unilaterally announced an indefinite extension of the ceasefire (see image above), but also kept the blockade in place. After threatening to end Iran as a civilization, Trump backed down… And thank God he did.

Trump Is Driving Gold Crazy, Along with the Rest of the World

04/20/2026 Alejandro A. Tagliavini

The US president is, quite literally, throwing the world into disarray to the point that the traditional safe-haven asset, gold, has gone from significant gains to double-digit weekly declines. From a peak exceeding $5,600 per troy ounce towards the end of January of this year, it has fallen by more than 20 percent, the most abrupt—and unimaginable—drop in its history.

War Without Accountability

The Misdirected Expression of Sublimated Rage

By Dr. Gary Null Global Research, April 16, 2026

Silence is often mistaken for peace, but it is more often the residue of fear, fatigue, and betrayal.

A society does not lose its moral compass all at once—it misplaces it quietly, one withheld voice at a time.

When conscience is deferred long enough, it does not disappear—it reemerges as rage, spectacle, or collapse. The work of a healthy culture begins when ordinary people remember that their voice still matters.

Let me give you the bottomline up front… Despite positive developments in expanding the ceasefire to include Lebanon and Hezbollah, the Trump administration announced new sanctions on Iran that will end any chance of negotiations with Iran. Unless Trump reverses course, the US is likely to renew its attacks on Iran and will exacerbate the international economic crisis that was ignited by the closing of the Strait of Hormuz.

The US Separation From Europe And NATO Is Long Overdue

By Brandon Smith Alt-Market.us April 11, 2026

As much as many centrists and libertarians are opposed to Donald Trump’s ongoing strikes against Iran, I have to say, the downstream result might end up becoming one of the most libertarian results I have ever seen. For decades, small government activists like those in the Ron Paul movement have been calling for a comprehensive US divorce from NATO and the shutdown of America’s military bases overseas. Trump has, either deliberately or inadvertently, set this very process in motion.

Turns Out the Elites Like the Administrative State Better than Democracy

If there is a mantra among progressive American political and media elites, it would be “our democracy,” usually preceded by what they believe to be a threat from the Right. For example, progressives deemed the recent reversal of Roe “a threat to our democracy” because it removed laws regulating abortion from Supreme Court jurisdiction and returned the issue to democratically elected legislatures.

By Thierry Meyssan Voltairenet.org April 8, 2026

The war waged by Israel, the United States, and the United Kingdom against Iran has called into question international law. Even the Security Council had forgotten its own definition of aggression. It ruled against itself. There has never been a precedent for this situation. All UN member states must now choose between international law and the alliance system devised by the United States.

Statement of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council on the Two-Week Ceasefire and Negotiation Conditions

7 April 2026 by Larry C. Johnson

If you think the war is over, think again. Iran has not agreed to a ceasefire. They have agreed to stop retaliating as long as Israel and the US stop their attacks. So that ball is in the West’s corner. Despite the White House claim that the Strait of Hormuz is now open for business, it is not. Iran will continue to allow ships on a case-by-case basis to enter and leave the Persian Gulf after paying a cover charge. Iran will split this money with Oman. If Iran charges a million dollars — payable in Chinese Yuan — they will earn an ……………………

Threatening to genocide an entire civilization is a new low, even for the lowest of the low. But this is a “man” who has harbored a secret vendetta against Iran for over 40 years, and his rise to power has supplied him the ticket he needed to believe he can finally fulfill his lifelong destiny.

Why the US Regime Pretends Israel’s Nuclear Weapons Don’t Exist

By Ryan McMaken Mises.org April 4, 2026

It’s difficult to find much of anything we might call “good” coming out of the current US-Israel war against Iran. Yet, one positive development has been the fact that Israel’s deceitful practice of pretending it has no nuclear weapons program is now untenable.

Not ‘Getting’ Iran – War Delusions – Losing the Status of Superpower

Moon of Alabama  April 4, 2026

Trump’s speech on Wednesday night did not offer anything new. But taken together with his threats to bomb Iran back to stone age, points to the further escalation of the war.

Trump and some around him still do not ‘get’ Iran. They never in their own life held any principle they would not deviated from if money was to be made. Iran, in contrast, does have principles that are not up for sale. It is beyond Trump’s comprehension that such exit:
