  • Now that Iran has also confirmed this agreement – and as it is a reliable source – we can probably take it at face value.

    Whatever the exact details of this agreement may be, one thing seems clear: the big loser in this war is the US.

    They have neither overthrown the regime, nor improved living conditions in Iran, nor achieved any other objective. On the contrary, they have made things MUCH worse for EVERYONE involved. The people of Iran now have to bear the economic consequences of the war; many have been imprisoned or even executed outright because they rejoiced too soon at the prospect of regime change following the US attack, and Iran has now learnt how wonderfully it can bring the whole world – and even the so-called world power – to its knees by blocking the Strait of Hormuz.

    Vietnam, Afghanistan, Iran – a new entry in the list of utterly pointless and embarrassing US wars. In fact, I even believe the Iran war is the most botched war of aggression waged by the US in the last 100 years – or indeed ever.
