Seyed Mohammad Marandi is a professor at Tehran University and a former advisor to Iran's Nuclear Negotiation Team.
Prof. Marandi discusses the US preparations to enter the war directly, and Iran's preparations to fight the US. Trump will only accept Iran's surrender, yet he does not appear to have the means to achieve this objective. What will happen if US strikes are ineffective and US military assets in the region are attacked? The only path forward now is reckless escalation.
Description:
President Donald Trump made vague and contradictory statements about potential U.S. military action against Iran, suggesting Iran is already defeated and calling for its "unconditional surrender." He downplayed Iran’s defenses, claiming U.S. and Israeli forces have total air dominance. In response, Iran’s Supreme Leader firmly rejected any imposed peace or surrender, warning of serious consequences if the U.S. intervenes.
Col. Douglas Macgregor, a former Trump advisor, harshly criticized Trump’s view as delusional and uninformed, driven by misleading advice from the same establishment figures who misjudged the war in Ukraine. Macgregor argued that Iran is gaining strength while Israel is growing weaker under heavy missile fire. He warned that assuming Iran will collapse is dangerously naïve, and that U.S. involvement could backfire severely.
Macgregor accused the U.S. "three-branch system"—Congress, the military-industrial complex, and mainstream media—of spreading the same false optimism they used with Ukraine. He noted voices like Lindsey Graham and Jack Keane are pushing for limited airstrikes to neutralize Iran’s nuclear program, but Macgregor warned that the conflict is already a full-scale war. Iran, he said, now sees destroying Israel as essential to its own survival and will retaliate forcefully if the U.S. joins the fight.

Physicist, engineer, author and philosopher of consciousness, Federico Faggin returns.
Early in his career, Federico designed the world’s first commercial microprocessor at Intel—a breakthrough that helped ignite the digital age. Over the course of his legendary Silicon Valley career, he developed core technologies behind modern computing, earning the National Medal of Technology and Innovation.
But in 1990, a spontaneous mystical experience shattered his materialist worldview and set him on a radical new path. Since then, Faggin has turned his attention to the mystery of consciousness, proposing a groundbreaking model in which subjective experience is not a byproduct of the brain, but foundational to reality; a reality that is quantum, holographic and creative.

Description:
President Donald Trump has issued a series of inflammatory posts on Truth Social indicating the U.S. now has “complete control” of the skies over Iran and suggesting he knows the location of Iran’s Supreme Leader, calling him an “easy target” but stating they won’t strike “for now.” He also demanded “unconditional surrender” from Iran, implying potential U.S. military action if provocations continue. This follows a national security meeting after his abrupt return from the G7 summit.
Analyst Larry Johnson, a former CIA official, reacted with alarm, saying Trump appears poised to launch a war against Iran without congressional approval, a decision he calls reckless and politically disastrous. Johnson warns this could split Trump’s base and likens it to the Iraq War—calling it another conflict based on misinformation. Prominent Trump allies like Tucker Carlson, Steve Bannon, Candace Owens, and Charlie Kirk have voiced strong opposition, fearing it will destroy Trump's presidency and damage the U.S. long-term.
Tucker Carlson specifically warned it could mark the "end of the American empire" and expressed disappointment that Trump resorted to personal attacks rather than addressing criticism. Johnson echoed this frustration, calling Trump “thin-skinned” and “narcissistic,” and stated he now regrets voting for him. He emphasized that Iran, unlike Israel, complies with international nuclear inspection protocols, and suggested that Trump’s rhetoric is dangerously close to fabricating a new war under false pretenses.

The late William Bengston served as president of the Society for Scientific Exploration. He is author of The Energy Cure: Unravelling the Mystery of Hands-On Healing. He was a professor of sociology at St. Joseph's College in New York.
In this interview, rebooted from 2019, he describes how he began his investigations as a young man who encountered a psychic healer who served as his mentor and friend.
When his friend backed out of participation in a healing experiment with cancer-injected mice, Bengston stepped in unwillingly.
To his astonishment, after several healing sessions, the mice were completely cured. This result has now been replicated numerous times. Bengston discusses his approach to healing research and his attitude toward healing.
Former CIA analyst Larry Johnson discusses the U.S.'s dangerous stance towards Iran, revealing the shocking truth behind Trump's dismissal of intelligence, his embrace of Israeli claims, and the looming threat of military escalation. Tune in for a deep dive into the political maneuvering and the potential consequences for global peace.
