Military solutions have not & will not work. Try sending competent U.S. negotiators to secure a real cease-fire and restarting talks on a new nonpro deal that gets IAEA inspectors back into Iran. "Trump says US may need to strike Iran's Pickaxe Mountain" reuters.com/world/trump-says…

BOOK REVIEW | 'Nuclear Weapons: An International History'
Holloway’s book is a commanding update to the political history of #nuclearweapons but exaggerates the ability of leaders of nuclear-armed states to control the prospect of nuclear #war. In #ACT: armscontrol.org/act/2026-09/…

The messaging from Israel and allied Iranian monarchist exiles is that the war is not against Iran; it's only against the Islamic Republic.
Putting aside the US bombings of Iranian schoolgirls and weddings, Trump's social media posts demolish Israeli/Pahlavist rhetoric.

On Zaphorizhzhia NPP, @rafaelmgrossi "Imagine that since June, since the last time we saw each other, the plant experienced ten losses of outside power in this short period of time, which is, of course, under normal circumstances, something completely unimaginable." -1-

NEW: An explosion that ripped through a wedding celebration in southern Iran on Tuesday, killing four people (including 2 minors) and injuring at least 68 others, likely resulted from a direct hit by a U.S. munition and not a ricochet off another target, according to an analysis by weapons experts who reviewed images and video verified by Reuters.
I spoke with 4 munitions analysts who agreed that the strike on the wedding gathering was a direct hit. Three experts said it was unlikely that a misfired Iranian missile had destroyed the home. Thank you to @Easybakeovensz, @bastischutte & Gareth Collett for your insights.
I also spoke with @haalvsh and @balochistanhrdn to confirm local accounts of what happened the evening of September 1. Many thanks to my hamvatans who spoke with us, despite the continued systematic state intimidation on people speaking with media.
Great team effort with Edward Carron, @idreesali114, Emily Giles, all of @ReutersWitness & @SarahCahlan

Sec. Hegseth treats civilian casualties as an afterthought, cuts personnel responsible for preventing them, & boasts that there will be “no stupid rules of engagement.”
There must be a full investigation & accountability for this strike. And we must end this disastrous war now.

Today at 12 p.m. ET, U.S. forces began striking Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) targets in Iran. The strikes follow recent attempted attacks by the IRGC against commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz and against American service members deployed to the region.
