    To any outside observer it looks like Iran has won this war, complete with reparations from the US.

    I’m sure Israel will blow this deal up though.

      Iran won the war when they dint bend like venezuela did in the first hours of this nonsensical operation. There is nothing the USA can win out of this confict, they are just losing power everywhere…

        No, the people of Iran are between a rock and a hard place.

        But I think people can maintain a cause in defence of themselves longer than the US can maintain their offensive.

        The US just hit critically low oil levels where it’s impossible to continue depleting them. They’ve reached low enough levels using pipelines are threatened by being able to maintain pressure.

        The US now has to decide if they want to lose internal oil transport and shut down infrastructure. All right before midterms.

      To any outside observer it looks like Iran has won this war

      The war is won by either side only when Iran inflicts a permanent defeat on its enemies, or it ceases to be a functional state. Any deal in between, if it even goes through, will only postpone the resumption of the war, as it has been for what, about the last 45 years.
