The Grey Lady reveals itself as one of the finest fanfic sites of the current era as it hungrily fantasizes about war between Israel and Iran.

Nevertheless, the scifi quality of our major propaganda organs’ coverage of the future war suggests that we are stymied, that low-level conflict is the best we can manage.
