Trump savors a fight, whether ringside at a UFC bout or on the world stage. My @Newyorker analysis of #Trump becoming belligerent (surprise, surprise) about #Iran and the @Pontifex Leo XIV. So much for the "peace presidency." https://t.co/nl1e4Bll88

My editorial today for The @newyorker: Where is the #IranWar headed? When I first went to #Iran 53 years ago, I could never have believed a war would erupt among two peoples who, underneath it all, had liked each other so much. https://t.co/bneAPgwIwe

On The @NewYorker Radio Hour, Dexter Filkins and I discuss the #IranWar and what it means to all of us--now and down the road. https://t.co/m47ZSapHrN

@Politico asked several experts before the 12-day war between US/Israel and #Iran last year what we thought. Today, Politico went back to the same experts to ask our thoughts in the event of a war between the US & #Iran now. This is what we all said... https://t.co/gYoyACJ8Bq

"Iran's regime is unsustainable." My @NewYorker analysis based on 53 years of covering #Iran. Includes first-hand accounts (& reflections) on why the the theocracy is untenable long-term. https://t.co/OMXNOeQQEM

"The Ambitious Aggression of #Trump 's 'Donroe Doctrine'." My latest in @NewYorker. President has failed to truly "end" any of the 8 wars he claims, has launched more airstrikes in 1 yr than Biden did in 4 yrs, and is threatening global order and US alliances--sometimes invoking vulgar language to do it. https://t.co/iZgMeWnPQK

[Robin Wright @wrightr]

My @newyorker piece on whether Ayatollah @khamenei_ir and the Islamic republic can survive the military onslaught by US and #Israel. The outcome may be shaped more by #Iran’s culture and politics than by the military prowess of its opponents. https://t.co/QtMDZwqisC

[Robin Wright @wrightr]

My @newyorker piece on Trump's combative pursuits at @thepanamacanal. Odd obsession since Panama has been a democracy & strategic ally since 1989. I crossed the canal last month to see for myself. https://t.co/KLiHtY0y0U

[Robin Wright @wrightr]

"The remarkable collapse of #Iran 's powerful alliances." My analysis in @newyorker about the transformed (and uncertain) landscape in the #Mideast. https://t.co/ro6pCvf0BF

My piece in @NewYorker on the scramble in the #MiddleEast -- after #Assad -- from recent reporting in the region. https://t.co/h3bmJ2qJ8O

[Robin Wright @wrightr]

My piece on the new algorithm of conflict in the #Mideast amid escalating hostilities between #Israel and #Iran--with few viable means of defusing tensions that now date back 45 years. https://t.co/3xL49O15uw

[Robin Wright @wrightr]

My piece on my trip to the #NorthPole--following the steps of a great explorer who later won the #NobelPeacePrize for saving 450,000 refugees fleeing war & genocide. He's so relevant today on crises ranging from climate to conflict. https://t.co/L9suMhs8hY

[Robin Wright @wrightr]

I spent several hours interviewing #Nasrallah for one of my books. I've been in the buildings struck in the Israeli attack during years living in #Beirut. My piece for The @NewYorker on what the #Hezbollah leader's death means for #Mideast, #Israel, #Iran, & the US. https://t.co/hwzKmpFxXU
