As the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran stretches into its second week, President Donald Trump has been floating the idea that he wants to declare Mission Accomplished. “We will. We’ve already won in many ways, but we haven’t won enough,” Trump declared on Monday afternoon in a speech before Republican lawmakers in Florida.

Iran, however, has shown no sign of ceasing its attacks. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps is steadily launching missiles at cities across Israel and continues to strike U.S. military assets and outposts in the Persian Gulf. “The Armed Forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran are capable of continuing at least a six-month intense war at the current pace of operations,” IRGC spokesperson Ali Mohammad Naini said Sunday in video remarks broadcast on state media. “Iran will determine when the war ends.”

Instead of relying on trust of the US, cash restitution/reconstruction and investment means losing those investments if US betrays their guarantees/promises. It is also obviously a signal that any declaration of US victory is whitewashing of defeat, and enough people in US will politicize as defeat, to bring it up again, if a zionazi puppet in future starts calling it a good idea to attack Iran.
