If the U.S. were in the middle of taking out Maduro and then pulled out, that would also be a defeat—but they didn’t.
We are in the middle of achieving a major goal that will benefit the entire world. It’s the exact opposite of Afghanistan or any other war: no boots on the ground, no prolonged conflict—and you’re saying what?
I’m confused. You’re arguing based on what you want to happen to prove your point, but there’s just one small problem: the future hasn’t happened yet.
On Monday Marco Rubio said that we cannot allow Iran to have control over the strait of Hormuz, picking and choosing who enters and what currency they use.
There is a very important reason why the administration feels this way: because it would be the greatest military defeat in US history.
We lost in Vietnam and Afghanistan in a sense but never like this. If we leave now with the new status quo being Iran controls the strait then we have transformed a relegated, isolated, sanction crippled nation into a global power.
Leaving now is an admission of a tremendous defeat and it’s also the best possible thing to do.

Following the reports - the spokesperson of the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs clarifies: "We have not yet made a decision regarding negotiations with the United States."
IDF Spokesperson:
The terrorist organization Hezbollah launched a hostile aircraft a short time ago against IDF forces operating south of the front defense line in the southern Lebanon area.
The aircraft was intercepted by the Air Force and did not cross into the country's territory. No alerts were issued according to policy.
This is a blatant violation of the ceasefire agreement.
The IDF will continue to operate to cleanse the area under its control and to remove threats to the citizens of the State of Israel and its forces.
