America's war on Iran has made Iran a regional power. A campaign that began by demanding the country's disarmament and the removal of its government killed its supreme leader and thousands of its people, and arrived—after the strikes, the blockade, and the serial revision of American terms—at the position Iran had held before any of it began. No American or Israeli leader will enter such a war again without recalling the political wreckage it left on Trump and Netanyahu. This is what Trump calls victory. The war opened with a demand for unconditional surrender. It closed with an agreement that unfreezes Iran's funds, commits Washington and its partners to $300 billion to rebuild the country, restores Iran's freedom to sell its oil, and halts military operations in Lebanon. Iran conceded a single line: a pledge not to build a nuclear weapon, the offer it had already made days before the first strike, as the Omani foreign minister confirmed at the time. What is presented as lowered enrichment is the legitimation of enrichment itself. The nuclear facilities, the ballistic missiles, the militias and parties it sustains across the region—none of it appears in the text. Regardless of the outcome of this war, Israel remains what it is. On the first day of its strikes on Iran, some thanked it. They had watched nearly three years of genocide carried out by a racial-supremacist project of ethnic cleansing, and they welcomed its criminals the moment the war served their own politics.
