A cease-fire is not a victory
Messrs Trump and Hegseth will no doubt spin it as a dazzling victory, but I'm sure the New York Times and CNN will not, and the mullahs in Tehran have their own spin upon the events of Tuesday. Note that "enrichment" means purifying uranium to the state where it can be made into nuclear bombs. I've boldfaced that and a few other notable claims:
"Iran has achieved a great victory and forced the criminal United States to accept its ten-point plan.
"In this plan, the United States has, in principle, committed to non-aggression; the continuation of Iran’s control over the Strait of Hormuz; acceptance of enrichment; the lifting of all primary and secondary sanctions; the termination of all United Nations Security Council and Board of Governors resolutions; compensation to Iran; the withdrawal of U.S. combat forces from the region; and the cessation of war on all fronts, including against the heroic Islamic resistance in Lebanon. We congratulate all the people of Iran on this victory and emphasize that until the details of this victory are finalized, continued resilience and prudence by officials, and the preservation of unity and solidarity among the Iranian people, remain necessary."
