US strikes on an Iranian school and ICE handling of a US citizen

Sep 28, 2026

Anger is building over reports that a school in Iran was hit repeatedly by US- and Israeli-supplied weapons, killing children — bad news for Washington's standing abroad.

  • An elementary school in Iran was struck three separate times, with children among the dead.
  • The weapons used came from the United States and Israel, tying Washington directly to the deaths.
  • The same pattern of harm to children is playing out in Gaza, the West Bank, Israel, Iran, and inside US immigration detention.
  • In Illinois, ICE agents roughed up a man who repeatedly shouted that he is an American citizen, then left him injured.
  • The argument: violence US forces carry out against civilians overseas eventually lands on Americans at home.

Outlook: Expect more scrutiny of both the strikes and ICE's treatment of citizens, with US credibility abroad taking further damage.
