Fox News links Berlin Pride attack to surging European terror threat

Video: Josh Hammer: Iran not rational actor, US goals unclear in 2026 war

Josh Hammer: Iran not rational actor, US goals unclear in 2026 war

Aug 8, 2026

The Fox News segment features host Mark Levin interviewing commentator Josh Hammer about the ongoing 2026 US-Israel war with Iran, now in its sixth month. Hammer argues the regime cannot be viewed as a rational actor like the Soviet Union during the Cold War because of its apocalyptic Twelver Shia ideology centered on hastening the return of the 12th Imam (Mahdi). He criticizes the lack of clearly articulated US goals since President Trump's Feb. 28 Mar-a-Lago briefing announcing Operation Epic Fury, noting shifting priorities between regime change, nuclear prevention, and reopening the Strait of Hormuz. Hammer agrees with isolationist critiques that the conflict has dragged on too long and calls for rapid, decisive action to achieve defined ends. The discussion relies on Hammer's opinion as a Newsweek senior editor and podcast host, with no opposing guests or detailed independent sourcing shown. It references Trump's initial statements and the audience's presumed knowledge of Iran's ideology and the conflict's timeline, framing the war as a necessary but poorly managed response to an irrational threat.
