Press TV – May 11, 2026
In a noteworthy mea culpa from one of America’s most influential neoconservative commentators, Robert Kagan believes the United States has suffered a “total defeat” in its ongoing war against Iran, which has permanently shattered its global standing.
Kagan, a co-founder of the Project for the New American Century and a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution, was a vocal advocate of the war against Iraq and a lifelong champion of American military interventions in West Asia.
But in a recent article for The Atlantic, he offered a grim verdict on the current war of aggression against the Islamic Republic of Iran, launched on February 28.
“The US suffered a total defeat,” Kagan writes, describing the loss as having no precedent in American history and one that can “neither be repaired nor ignored.”
While acknowledging that previous American military failures carried heavy costs, Kagan insists this war is fundamentally different in nature.
“The defeats in Vietnam and Afghanistan were costly but did not do lasting damage to America’s overall position in the world,” the prominent commentator writes.
“Defeat in the present confrontation with Iran will be of an entirely different character.”
At the heart of this catastrophe, Kagan noted, is Iran’s newfound ability to control the Strait of Hormuz, the world’s most strategic waterway, without any challenge.
“Iran will be able not only to demand tolls for passage, but to limit transit to those nations with which it has good relations,” he writes.
According to Kagan, Iran has no interest in returning to the pre-war status quo. Most Persian Gulf states, he believes, will have no choice but to accommodate Tehran, effectively making Iran the dominant regional power.
“The United States will have proved itself a paper tiger, forcing the (Persian) Gulf and other Arab states to accommodate Iran,” Kagan writes.
He also dismisses any notion that a coalition of allies could rectify the situation.
“If the United States with its mighty Navy can’t or won’t open the strait, no coalition of forces with just a fraction of the Americans’ capability will be able to, either,” he states.
Kagan frames the collapse not as a regional setback but as a global strategic failure that fundamentally alters America’s position in the world.
“America’s once-dominant position in the (Persian) Gulf is just the first of many casualties,” he warns. “America’s allies in East Asia and Europe must wonder about American staying power in the event of future conflicts.”
Compounding the strategic humiliation is a staggering depletion of American military resources during the ongoing war, which has been widely documented in the US media.
“Just a few weeks of war with a second-rank power have reduced American weapons stocks to perilously low levels, with no quick remedy in sight,” Kagan writes.
He hastens to add that the United States now finds itself unable to control the consequences of a war it initiated – a war it has already lost.
“America’s allies must wonder about American staying power in the event of future conflicts,” he remarks.

Americans are too stupid to realise the Jew has brought them to war with Iran for their own destruction.
Khazaria is being rebuilt in Ukraine and Russia’s in on the game. Greater Israel’s planning has started. The west gets all the occupants of the lands they’ve warred with since 9/11. And not only will the whites lose their jobs, homes and families but also devolve into 2nd class citizens, ruled by the immigrants who hate them.
You have to take your hat off to the Jew for playing such an excellent game. You also have to recognise how incredibly stupid westerners really are. I never thought I’d ever say this but they deserve everything that befalls them. Rape and murder are going to go through the roof of westerners. Politicians, police, military are all going to become a majority of non whites. Slavery will be reintroduced upon the white population aged they won’t be able to stop any of it.
Get used to hell whitey. You’re 100% responsible!
Second rate powers get beaten. Iran wasn’t beaten, the US was.
LOL..
Kagan is a jewe, neo-con means jewe..what the wasp imbeciles that used to limp the yankee behemoth along failed to fathom when they teamed up with jewes and allowed them to run foreign policy and their finances for some kickbacks..was that the foreign policy jewes run is jewe foreign policy..which quite frankly is not yankee policy at all because it’s run by jewes.. for jewes..like jewe fiscal policy..
so rather than this just being an et tu Brute moment, as kagan chuckles along, which of course is inevitable when dealing with jewes..it’s more a case of gross negligence and weakness..with lashings of greed..
because of course that was always the plan as they offshored to china.. they did the same thing to pirate rock..so it’s not as though you didn’t have an example..
of course the lot of ’em have shit the bed on this one.. in fact they’re sat on a dungheap.. jewes being too stupid to realize that when the parasite kills the host..it’s curtains baby.. because as much as chinks love jewes..they wont be much use to them without yankee largesse..
lolo
By the way..a little known fact is that all the big money in brit-UN was siphoned into the north american asylum around 1911..when they were getting their ducks in a row for the federal reserve, league of nations and of course the cof cof..’great war’..because if it’s great it’s a financial plot.. and that was a lot of ill gotten gain..
I’ll tell ya..
which is the the root of the larouche, ‘it’s the English’ meme… because of course the accounting is still done in the shitty city.. the financial lavatory of the whirled.
Isn’t this the fat fkin fcktard hat’s married to that fat fkin sow Nudleman??
Very scary is the re-emergence of the warmonger Kagan! His ghastly wife, Victoria
Nuland, architect of the ‘revolution’ that kicked off the now very scary EU-NATO-US-RUSSIA war, cannot be far behind him.
Yes, Kagan’s criticism of Trump is valid. But look at this fellow’s ecstatically grinning mug-shot! The seriously ailing, stupid Trump is for him a gift. Whom is Kagan planning to insinuate into the US presidency once Trump is fully disabled or dead?
I have never before thought of hoping that Trump will pick up and hang on to his presidency. I am hoping for that now.
SCROTOXING
Homosexual men warned against viral ‘ballmaxxing’ trend – which causes irreversible damage
Story by Andrea Oldereide
Dr Baldeep Farmah, who runs a dedicated beauty programme for gay men in their 20s and 30s, warned ‘ballmaxxing’ is one of the most reckless body modification trends to come out of gay male online communities. The physician warned the temporary increase in size often leads to permanent damage. A new and dangerous body modification trend, sometimes called Scrotoxing means
men are injecting saline into their scrotums to increase the size of their testicles, some gay men are injecting womens breast enlargement fillers to bulk out their testicles
half way to their knees
Dr Baldeep Farmah, the physician warned the temporary increase in size often leads to permanent damage.
‘Ballmaxxing’ involves running a bag of saline solution (or, in some cases, surgical lubricant) into the scrotal sac through an intravenous needle, swelling it to several times its normal size. The ‘maxxing’ suffix is borrowed from ‘looksmaxxing’ and ‘fibermaxxing’; the goal is maximum size.The dangerous online forums frame it as harmless because the fluid absorbs within a day or two. Nevertheless, Dr Farmah is adamant that the practice can in fact be very dangerous.
Dr Farmah said: “There’s nothing wrong with men taking ownership of how their bodies look. That’s a healthy instinct. What’s not healthy is getting that instinct met by anonymous accounts on Reddit telling you to put a needle in your scrotum at home and putting photos of on the internet. Ballmaxxing is one of the most reckless things I’ve seen come out of these gay communities.
FAFO.
Just another neanderthal promoting a fake war, the charade between cooperating merchant families. Misdirecting us into believing one side is totally defeated, or pretending it’s a “raging war”. Especially when these analysts, former cia so n so’s, and Lt colonels blabber . Kagan himself drools inbetween mouthfuls.
The Brookings Institute is another limited hangout for the Jewish money power.
“Robert Kagan is a prominent American neoconservative foreign policy expert, author, and senior fellow at the Brookings Institution, born to a Jewish family. His father, Donald Kagan, was a renowned historian of Lithuanian Jewish descent, and his brother, Frederick Kagan, is also a military historian.”
He is plays an influential roll in the Jewish long plan for global dominance through debt-rigging of nations, sowing divisions, profiteering from wars, looting the West, and the insider control of the leading world powers.
If the son of god (david icke) were to return to the moo… earth and spout out stuff, no one would take any notice. Why is one goon more “noteworthy” than another? Should we start ranking our goons?
It doesn’t matter how many bombs you’ve got. Why would it? The jew has all the bombs globally. And America shows no signs of “collapsing” that I can see. The price of oil? So what? It’s more expensive everywhere else. Most of the people have a real home, unlike in the jew-k and elsewhere. They have a functioning society. Just watch any sports event or non political gathering. Then compare that to the thugs at football matches, where they have to cordon off the streets to funnel them to reserved trains, all so they don’t kill some passing local on their way to and from the “game”. They have millions of square miles of open land, open to the public. What they call “countryside” in the jew-k, which is all closed to the “public” because it’s “private”. Go into any town in America and look around you. Do you see the sky? Do you see open space between the houses? Green lawns and trees? Clean sidewalks? No bollards? No “do not do this” signs? No rows of dustbins? No rows of cars? Clean roads? No potholes? That’s what a community is. That’s what it’s like to live in a community. Not the “community” of the jew-k, all piled on top of each other, with gay flags everywhere and brown faces staring hate at you from broken windows plastered with palestinian flags. Not drug addicts and prostitutes roaming about looking for a fix.
No one on earth would pass up the opportunity to live in America. If you say you would, you’re a liar. Don’t BS me about dump and the rest. You have the same in your shithole. America is the American people. There are no british people. Just jews and coons and gays.
Iran is a super power. The US is a stupor power.
“Kagan, a co-founder of the Project for the New American Century.”
Hey Kagan, you demented neoconderthal, take your Plan for a New American Century and shove it all the way up your stinking arse-nal!!!
Have a really bad day, a really bad year and a really bad death.

Iran has class, intelligence, morality and focus. The US is crass, stupid. immoral and scatter-brained.
Death to the God damn psychopathic empire of greed, stupidity, arrogance, hypocrisy, conceit, lawlessness and depravity!

His ass ain’t admitting nothing. Just promoting this charade as if it were a real war.
Word “Kagan” mean “King” or “Ruler” in Khazaria.

“Dirty Jew”…we are coming for you
Harbinger are right. The stupid whites thinks either jewsus or ET will com to save them. Not realizing that the jews invented both jewsus and ET. There will be none to save them. I will have left this realm by then so it doesn’t bother me at all. Like Harbinger said, they all deserve it.
There’s only one solution to Jewish nation-wrecking, and it’s The Final Solution. Those who think that’s extreme, are ignorant, dreaming, or emotionally gelded.
