With help from China and Russia, the next Iran War looms

April 5, 2026

Trump issues threats but struggles to force a decision, and the confrontation with Iran continues without a breakthrough. In Israel, warnings are mounting over Tehran’s nuclear program and the strain on the IDF, while criticism of the government’s conduct is growing on the home front.

This is the plan to bring down the Iranian regime

As President Donald Trump's ultimatum nears its end, there are almost no contacts between Washington and Tehran. Israeli officials believe the failure of the talks is pushing the war into a decisive economic phase. The goal: hitting the Iranian oil and transport sectors until the economy is paralyzed and the regime collapses.

Inside the IDF Red Unit, trained to think like the enemy

The soldiers of the all-female Red Unit study Hezbollah and Hamas down to the smallest tactical detail – then use that knowledge to expose every gap in Israel's defenses before the shooting starts for real.

Where has Egypt been since October 7?

Since the war began, Egypt has walked a tightrope: attacking Hamas with one hand while fueling anti-Israel propaganda with the other. It is struggling to preserve its status, yet drifting into Qatar's orbit. Weakened, but somehow strengthened too. What will be the price of its silence and avoidance?

Trump faces four military options as US reinforces near Iran

Thousands of soldiers from the 82nd Airborne Division have begun arriving in the Middle East, joining about 2,500 Marines who arrived over the weekend and hundreds of special operations troops. On the table are seizing Kharg Island, breaking the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, extracting Iran’s enriched uranium stockpile, and launching a final wave of strikes on energy infrastructure as a signal the campaign is ending.

Why Iran's struck nuclear sites matter

Israel attacked the heavy water facility in Arak and a plant in Ardakan. The reactor in Arak, which was also struck in June, is capable of producing weapons-grade plutonium, while the nearby plant in Ardakan produces “yellowcake,” the raw material used in the uranium enrichment process.

Inside the Israeli Air Force's hunt for Iran's launchers

The mission: hunt down Iranian missiles in real time, before a ton of explosives hits Israeli homes. The time allotted: only seconds. The "launcher hunters" offer a glimpse into the fateful chase, and admit: "The Iranians are no pushovers. We are not fooling ourselves into thinking we can reduce launches to zero."

Qatar vs. Hamas: The fallout is real, the breakup is not

The Iranian attack on Qatar has brought the emirate's ties with Hamas and its mouthpieces to a crossroads. Those who echoed Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps propaganda instead of backing their host were silenced. Doha is promising a reckoning, but removing the terrorist organization's leadership is still a long way off.

The three conditions missing for an uprising in Iran

Amid reports that the Mossad chief presented removing the ayatollahs as an achievable goal, it is worth to remember that uprisings are not sparked from the outside. To mobilize a mass opposition, one must identify an existing crack, then widen it. How is that done, and why has it not yet worked in Iran?

Netanyahu cools talk of regime collapse

Extreme threats, surprise direct talks and a barrage of clichés about Israel being thrown under the bus and an unstable leader: everything Israel went through with Hamas in Gaza is now repeating itself with Iran. Still, there is one significant difference between the smaller enemy and the larger one, and it will determine what the endgame looks like.

Inside the assassins serving Iran in Israel

Long before the war against Iran, Tehran marked its target: Israel’s leadership. A covert and persistent Iranian effort, from sophisticated explosives to recruiting agents, has turned Israel into a hunting ground, with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and top military officials in the crosshairs. At times, disaster was avoided only by chance.

Israel's new border, pending Trump approval

Remarkably, instead of Israel needing American assistance against Iran, it now finds itself helping its closest ally achieve its overarching goal: eliminating the ayatollah regime’s threat to the global energy market. The ramifications of this upheaval are only beginning to emerge, and they could ultimately lead to dramatic border changes across the Middle East.
