  4. "[T]oday’s landscape is one in which the United States, still holding fast to its position at the top of the global order, remains powerful enough to break things but is increasingly unable to stabilize the aftermath of its rampage.

  23. 'I see some Iranians in the diaspora doing the “Y.M.C.A.” Trump dance while their country burns. I dread opening X or any social media, which I do every morning anyway, just to see fellow Iranians applaud Donald Trump’s war on their country, deny atrocities, or even blame the regime for the missiles landing on their compatriots’ heads. Yes, I, too, am a self-hating Persian in those moments.'
