Thin on the left so far

None of the 7 outlets with a published leaning rating that ran this story are rated left.

This story is still being watched, so it is a count and not yet a finding. Coverage keeps arriving for hours after an event, and a side that has published nothing this morning may publish by tonight. If it is still true when we stop checking, we will say so plainly.

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi stated that Americans are tired of Israel dragging the US into "forever wars". He posted his remarks on his X account in response to comments made by US President Donald Trump. Trump had suggested in an interview that public opposition to the war against Iran, along with a dislike for Israel and rising gasoline prices, were reasons for Republican losses in recent midterm elections.

PressTV reported that the United States and Israel waged two wars against Iran in 2025 and 2026. According to PressTV, Iran's resistance and retaliatory operations forced a ceasefire in both conflicts. The outlet also stated that Iran maintained control of the Strait of Hormuz during the second war amid US actions in the region.

Disagreement on the reasons for US wars with Iran

PressTV reported that the United States and Israel waged two wars against Iran in 2025 and 2026. In contrast, the digests from Tribune India and aninews.in stated that Trump mentioned new military strikes against Iran were unlikely, as negotiations and Treasury sanctions on cryptocurrency networks were continuing. These digests did not mention any past wars between the US, Israel, and Iran.

What the coverage left out

None of the right-rated digests mention the specific dates or details of the two wars waged by the United States and Israel against Iran in 2025 and 2026, as reported by PressTV.
