Discovering? It was announced a thousand times, maybe you dismissed because none of them were easily achievable? Opening the Strait, renouncing nuclear program

Discovering? It was announced a thousand times, maybe you dismissed because none of them were easily achievable? Opening the Strait, renouncing nuclear program, renouncing ballistic program, regime change. Even Israel will be forced to retreat from Lebanon. Iran won by choking the Strait and telling USA and Israel they could endure far longer than their aggressors could endure a few missiles and domestic support drop. A Pakistani-made taco was not in my radar for today.

I dismissed them because the president and the Pentagon could not seem to articulate the objectives of the war in a way that was cohesive with one another. Also,the Strait was open before the war.

  Yeah obviously opening the strait wasn’t an objective. I think what you’re suggesting is that the mentioned reason - denuclearization of Iran - is unlikely to be the real reason, which may have been something like distraction.

Opening the Strait was not a goal of this action; the Strait was open before this war started. They are trying to sell as a win a return to the status quo ante.

  I think you will find that Biden closed the straights and that it was going to be reopened and China was going to pay for it. (/s?)

  Right. So the objectives for US were regime change in Iran and end of nuclear program. Iran wanted sanctions dropped and continued nuclear program.

> Opening the Strait So the US started a war with an objective to open the Strait which only closed due to the war they started. Can you explain what you mean here mate?

How on Earth was opening the straight an objective of this war, when the straight was open before the war. It's like Russia declaring that Russian control of Moscow is an objective of the war with Ukraine. > renouncing nuclear program, If that was the objective, the US should be declaring war on the guy who scrapped the Iran nuclear deal, because it was accomplishing just that.
