Is the United States military prepared for the next major war? Victor Davis Hanson examines America's military readiness, the rise of drone warfare, Iran's uncertain future, and the growing influence of postmodernism on American education in this edition of the Daily Brief.

In this highlights compilation, historian and political commentator Victor Davis Hanson explores whether the Iranian people can overthrow the Islamic Republic, the role of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), and whether President Donald Trump could pursue a strategy similar to America's defeat and occupation of Japan during World War II.

Victor also addresses conspiracy theories surrounding Charlie Kirk's assassination, allegations involving Israeli intelligence, and claims that President Franklin D. Roosevelt deliberately allowed the attack on Pearl Harbor.

Turning to American universities, Victor explains how French postmodernist thinkers such as Michel Foucault, Jacques Derrida, and Jacques Lacan influenced higher education, and how he believes their ideas eventually shaped K–12 classrooms.

Finally, Victor examines the future of American military power, including Pete Hegseth's Pentagon reforms, military recruitment, F-22 and F-35 fighter jets, B-1 and B-2 bombers, Patriot missile shortages, and the growing importance of inexpensive drones in modern warfare. Could America's reliance on expensive weapons leave it vulnerable in a future conflict with China over Taiwan?

From Iran and Israel to American education and the next generation of warfare, Victor offers his perspective on the challenges facing the United States.

Victor rejects claims of Israeli intelligence involvement in Charlie Kirk's assassination and argues that conspiracy theories should be evaluated against available evidence rather than speculation.

Did Franklin D. Roosevelt deliberately allow Pearl Harbor to happen?
Victor challenges the theory that Roosevelt intentionally allowed the Japanese attack, distinguishing strategic miscalculations and military failures from evidence of a deliberate conspiracy.

What is postmodernism, and how did it influence American education?
Victor discusses the influence of French philosophers Michel Foucault, Jacques Derrida, and Jacques Lacan, arguing that postmodernist ideas about truth, morality, and social structures transformed American universities and eventually influenced K–12 education.

خلاصه خبری:
فشار سیاسی، نظامی و اقتصادی بر جمهوری اسلامی هم‌زمان در چند جبهه ادامه دارد. بلومبرگ گزارش داده که فشار دولت دونالد ترامپ مانع سخنرانی یک مقام ارشد ایرانی در کنفرانس آژانس بین‌المللی انرژی اتمی شده است. رافائل گروسی نیز هشدار داده که نبود اطلاعات درباره محل و وضعیت مواد هسته‌ای ایران، به یک نگرانی جدی تبدیل شده است. هم‌زمان سی‌ان‌ان می‌گوید واشینگتن می‌خواهد مذاکرات احتمالی با تهران فعلا بر پرونده هسته‌ای متمرکز بماند. ترامپ هم گفته ایران به‌دنبال دستیابی سریع به توافق است و آمریکا با نگاهی «باز» این موضوع را بررسی می‌کند.
در جبهه اقتصادی، اسکات بسنت، وزیر خزانه‌داری آمریکا، در چارچوب برنامه‌ای موسوم به «عملیات طرد اقتصادی» از افشاگران خواسته هرگونه اطلاعات درباره شبکه‌ها و افرادی را که از آنها با عنوان «تسهیل‌گران تروریسم ایران» یاد شده، در اختیار این وزارتخانه قرار دهند. یکی از اعضای شورای حکام بانک مرکزی اروپا نیز هشدار داده که جنگ ایران می‌تواند احتمال افزایش بیشتر نرخ بهره در اروپا را بالا ببرد.
تنش‌های نظامی در منطقه نیز ادامه دارد. یکی از اعضای کابینه اسرائیل تهدید کرده در صورت اقدام نظامی ایران، زیرساخت‌های انرژی این کشور هدف قرار خواهد گرفت. وزیر دفاع اسرائیل هم اعلام کرده ارتش علی‌الطاهر را در کنترل دارد و هر نیرویی که به آن نزدیک شود، نابود خواهد شد. فرمانده سنتکام نیز تاکید کرده آمریکا درباره ذخایر موشک‌های رهگیر خود هیچ نگرانی ندارد.
حوثی‌ها از انجام حمله‌ای گسترده به پایگاه هوایی ملک خالد در عربستان سعودی خبر داده‌اند. در مقابل، تهران دخالت در تخریب خط لوله عربستان را تکذیب کرده و چین نیز گزارش مربوط به کمک به ایران برای حمله به یک پایگاه آمریکایی در اردن را رد کرده است. در داخل ایران هم یک روزنامه وابسته به سپاه از سخنان مسعود پزشکیان درباره کنار گذاشتن گذشته در روابط با امارات انتقاد کرده که می‌تواند نشانه‌ای تازه از اختلاف بر سر سیاست منطقه‌ای جمهوری اسلامی باشد.
تحولات جنگ بر حمل‌ونقل و تجارت منطقه هم تاثیر گذاشته است. بسته‌شدن موقت برخی مرزها، هزینه حمل کالا به عراق را ۲۵ درصد افزایش داده و یک نهاد موسوم به «مدیریت آبراه خلیج فارس» نام ۷۷ شناور را در فهرست «متخلفان» قرار داده است. در همین حال، شرکت هواپیمایی امارات اعلام کرده ظرفیت پروازی خود را به ۹۳ درصد سطح پیش از اختلال‌ها بازگردانده است.
در داخل ایران نیز بیش از ۶۶ درصد مردم گفته‌اند نگران کمبود انرژی و جیره‌بندی آن هستند؛ آماری که نشان می‌دهد پیامدهای جنگ و بحران زیرساختی، مستقیما به یکی از مهم‌ترین نگرانی‌های روزمره مردم تبدیل شده است.

Today, the biggest news comes from Bulgaria.

Here, a major sabotage attack has destroyed most of the Starlink infrastructure at a secret facility near Sofia, after two masked individuals deliberately set fire to eleven of the seventeen antennas installed at the site. The attack immediately raised alarm because these antennas were connected to the Starlink satellite network and provided communications that are also used by Ukraine during the war, meaning an act of arson directly damaged infrastructure supporting Ukrainian connectivity far beyond its own borders. Bulgarian member of parliament Ivaylo Mirchev revealed the incident publicly and accused the authorities of remaining silent, while questioning how two attackers were able to reach a secured communications facility and destroy nearly two thirds of its antennas without being stopped. He also criticized Bulgaria’s security services for failing to prevent what he described as suspected Russian sabotage. Bulgaria’s security chief later explained that part of the station’s fencing had been removed during expansion work, making it easier for the attackers to reach the antennas.

Ukraine depends on Starlink because the system allows military units to maintain communications even when conventional networks are unavailable near the front. More than fifty thousand Starlink terminals have been delivered to Ukraine since the beginning of the full scale invasion, supporting the military alongside hospitals, emergency services, schools, energy facilities, local authorities, and businesses during blackouts and communications outages. On the battlefield, terminals connect directly with satellites overhead, allowing soldiers to transmit battlefield information, coordinate movements, relay reconnaissance from drones, and keep commanders connected with units across large distances. Starlink is also resistant to many forms of Russian electronic jamming, which made satellite connections especially valuable for controlling drones where ordinary radio links become unreliable. The antennas near Sofia support this system from the ground by exchanging data with Starlink satellites and routing that traffic into local internet networks, helping complete the connection between users in Ukraine and the wider communications network behind the constellation.

The significance of the attack grew further when, shortly afterward, Ukrainian forces reported serious disruptions to the military version of Starlink called Starshield. Ukrainian attack and air defense drones using the system suddenly began losing their connections once they exceeded roughly one hundred sixty kilometers per hour, disrupting missions without any advance warning to the units operating them. Ukrainian troops then recorded interruptions lasting between ten and twenty seconds during flight, making drones difficult to control and forcing several missions to be cancelled. At the same time, Ukraine went two consecutive nights without receiving the usual warning from its partners about Russian ballistic missile attacks on Kyiv. These warnings depend partly on the American Space Based Infrared System, whose satellites detect the intense heat produced when ballistic missiles launch, and Europe currently has no equivalent system capable of immediately replacing it. The connection to Washington became even more direct when Elon Musk stated that limits on Starshield speed or usage are decided by the United States military and ultimately by the president. As Trump pressures Ukraine over its long range operations, Ukrainian forces are now facing restrictions on drone communications, gaps in missile warning data, and the destruction of Starlink infrastructure supporting the network from Bulgaria all at once.

Overall, the attack in Bulgaria exposes Europe’s dependence on infrastructure it cannot readily replace, because the systems keeping Ukraine connected now extend across allied territory while no European network can match Starlink at the same scale. That dependence means protecting Ukraine’s communications increasingly requires protecting ground infrastructure inside Europe itself, from satellite terminals and relay sites to the power systems that keep them running. It also gives Washington enormous influence over Ukrainian operations, because restrictions on American controlled satellite links and missile warning data can immediately affect what Ukrainian forces are able to see, coordinate, and strike. Europe is therefore being pushed toward building its own resilient communications and early warning architecture, since every delay leaves another part of Ukraine’s military network dependent on systems that either Russia can attack or the United States can restrict.

Operation Vivaldi’s 250 POW Claim Tests Russia’s Battlefield Credibility
Lyman Direction Setback: Why Russian Milbloggers Demand Answers on Operation Vivaldi
Putin’s Geran Drone Strategy: Can Mass Strikes Force Ukraine to Capitulate?

I examine Ukraine’s claim that its Third Army Corps captured more than 250 Russian servicemen during Operation Vivaldi in the Lyman direction, alongside reported recaptures of Novyi Ridkodub, Katerynivka, Karpivka, and Novomykhailivka. The Russian Defense Ministry had not publicly addressed the footage discussed here, but prominent Russian milbloggers—including Oleg Tsaryov and Rybar—were already asking whether Moscow’s silence was worsening a real battlefield and credibility problem.

I also look at the reported use of grenade-launcher ground robots against Russian shelters, an amphibious unmanned ground vehicle’s 40-kilometer logistics mission, and the Bessemer 1100 reconnaissance UAV. The wider contest is increasingly about affordable systems produced at scale. That matters because Putin’s strategy, as described by ISW, relies on Geran-type long-range drones to pressure Ukrainian cities and seek capitulation before spring 2027.

Tonight on *24 with Fardad Farahzad* Donald Trump announces that a preliminary agreement has been reached with Iran, declaring that the Strait of Hormuz will reopen and that Iran’s nuclear activities will be placed under strict international monitoring. The program examines the details of the emerging understanding between Tehran and Washington, unresolved disputes over sanctions, enriched uranium, and regional security, as well as sharp criticism from Israel, which insists it will continue its military operations and maintain its presence in southern Lebanon. The episode also explores growing political divisions inside Iran, reactions from regional and international powers, and the question of whether this fragile understanding can evolve into a lasting agreement.

امشب در «۲۴ با فرداد فرحزاد»، دونالد ترامپ از دستیابی به یک تفاهم اولیه با جمهوری اسلامی خبر می‌دهد و می‌گوید تنگه هرمز بازگشایی خواهد شد و برنامه هسته‌ای ایران تحت نظارت سختگیرانه قرار می‌گیرد. برنامه به جزئیات این تفاهم، اختلاف‌های حل‌نشده بر سر تحریم‌ها، اورانیوم غنی‌شده و امنیت منطقه‌ای می‌پردازد؛ در حالی که اسرائیل با انتقاد از این روند تأکید می‌کند که عملیات نظامی خود را ادامه خواهد داد و نیروهایش را از جنوب لبنان خارج نخواهد کرد. همچنین واکنش‌های داخلی در ایران، شکاف‌های سیاسی بر سر توافق و بازتاب بین‌المللی این تحول بررسی می‌شود. آیا این تفاهم می‌تواند به یک توافق پایدار تبدیل شود یا تنها آغازی برای چالش‌های تازه است؟

Questions about Donald Trump's cognitive health have become a recurring topic in American politics. Supporters dismiss concerns as partisan attacks. Critics point to verbal slips, unusual statements, and changes in behavior. But what does a physician trained in aging actually look for?
In this video, I share what a geriatric physician told me about her observations. We examine normal aging, cognitive decline, the limitations of evaluating someone remotely, and why responsible analysis requires evidence rather than assumptions.
This is not a political attack or defense but an attempt to see clearly.

🚨 BREAKING IRAN WAR NEWS: Iranian rebels are reportedly opening fire on Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) as Kurdish resistance forces launch drone attacks against Iranian government positions. David Hookstead breaks down the escalating fighting inside Iran, a reported Houthi ballistic missile attack on Aden Airport in Yemen, and major developments involving American military forces in the Middle East.

🔥 IRAN REBELLION ESCALATES: Iranian Kurdish fighters are reportedly using one-way attack drones against IRGC positions in Kermanshah Province in western Iran. Footage circulating online appears to show intense gun battles between Iranian resistance fighters and government forces, although the footage remains unverified. Fighting is also discussed in southeastern Iran's Sistan and Baluchestan Province.

🚨 AIRPORT UNDER ATTACK: Yemen's Iranian-backed Houthi rebels are accused of launching a ballistic missile attack against Aden Airport. Footage purportedly showing the strike raises new concerns about the expanding conflict in Yemen and the threat posed by Houthi missile capabilities.

⚔️ STRAIT OF HORMUZ EXPLOSIONS: Reports of attacks on commercial shipping are raising fears of another major escalation in the Middle East. Footage released by Iranian forces purports to show vessels engulfed in flames, while the IRGC claims a ship struck a naval mine. The circumstances of these incidents remain disputed.

🇺🇸 U.S. MILITARY UPDATE: Admiral Brad Cooper, commander of U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM), delivers an important update on American military operations, regional security, Iranian threats, and the protection of commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz.

David Hookstead analyzes the latest Iran war developments, Kurdish resistance operations, IRGC activity, Iranian fighter jets, ballistic missile threats, Houthi attacks, and the growing danger of a wider Middle East conflict.

A couple years ago, I sat down with Victor Davis Hanson for a conversation that has since been viewed more than five million times. So, naturally, I invited him back to see if we could ruin a perfectly good thing. We failed.

Victor joined me from the 150-year-old farmhouse where his great-great-grandmother once lived—a place where something is always breaking, somebody is always fixing it, and the crawlspace beneath his feet provides a surprisingly useful metaphor for the country above it.

We talked about the growing distance between the people who run the country and the people who can actually fix it. And inevitably, we talked about Donald Trump.

From there, things got interesting. Why does a billionaire from Queens connect with working people in a way so many politicians can't? Why did some of his loudest supporters turn against him? And how does Victor reconcile the things Trump says that make him cringe with the things he believes Trump has gotten right?

In other words, Victor Davis Hanson is back. And once again, we had some things to discuss.
