As the kids say these days, WMD-grade copium by the Atlantic Council

What points? We bombed children and civilian infrastructure when we discovered we couldn't destroy their primary offensive capability. We watched helplessly as they did the very thing that was predicted would happen (closed the straight) and forced hardship all over the world. Depleted our own offensive and defensive capability supporting and protecting isreal without significantly effecting theirs. We lost tremendous strategic advantage in the region as Iranian bombs rained down on our bases and oil infrastructure in the region, damaging valuable weapons and killing our soldiers. We achieved none of the stated goals for starting the war aside from killing a few of their old leaders who were rather quickly replaced. The president embarrassed the nation and ruined our reputation repeatedly by alternately begging for peace and immediately ignoring the requirements for even starting negotiations. Trump showed his personal capitulation to Netanyahu by refusing to abide by terms in earlier agreements that would require isreal to stop doing even just one of their genocides for five fucking minutes.

And for what? What notches do we have in our column? Please elaborate.

Zip. It's versatile for the weather. Cold, zipped. cool unzipped. Warm, sleeves up. Single front pocket is overrated acts like a purse, stuff gets lost. Two pockets means you're organized.

Iran Leaves Four-Party Summit in Switzerland, Exposing Fragility of Islamabad Framework

From the article you posted:

"The talks were jolted by statements from Trump, who, from thousands of miles away, fired off comments that offended the Iranians.

Iranian state media said talks had paused after the "publication of an insulting message by the U.S. President." The negotiations later continued."

So it did in fact happen, but despite the geriatric manchild torpedoing his own begged for peace negotiations the adults in the room recovered.

You know you start one or two (possibly more) apocalypses centered around your severely neglected son piloting a giant proto-being super robot that traumatizes him nearly every time he gets into it all in the hopes of turning your wife-clone daughter who you spend creepy amounts of alone time with into a conduit for contacting your dead wife who's soul may or may not have been absorbed into said robot thereby recreating her into a death goddess who absorbs the souls of everyone on earth suddenly everybody thinks your a bad father.

Don't you know police officer is the most dangerous job there is, behind pizza deliverer. I mean that shoplifter might have had a gun, that baby might have had a gun, that gun might have had a gun. You can never know. A cop sometimes has to make tough choices, and choosing not to shoot into that crowded parking lot might have been the worst choice in a terrible situation. Like this one where he might have missed the chance to shoot his gun for real, like in an action movie. At the BAD GUYS!
