After murdering thousands in his criminal Iran war, Trump surrendered during his address to the nation last night.

No, it wasn't the unconditional surrender Trump demanded, then abandoned of Iran. It was a surrender couched as a US victory over Iran. Trump claimed he's obliterated enough of Iran's nuclear program and missile stocks to wind down the war in “2 to 3 weeks.” But inadvertently admitting Iran is far from defeated, Trump declared “"if during this period of time...If there is no deal, we are going to hit each and every one of their electric generating plants very hard and probably simultaneously.” Bragging about committing war crimes before the fact is not just criminal, it’s insane.

Trump’s impending victory declaration omits any mention of Iranian retaliation (other than the 13 dead US military) in which thousands of undefended missiles have decimated 13 US bases in the Gulf States, and caused massive damage throughout Israel. That presages the Gulf States will kick the unreliable US out of the region. It presages the disintegration, unraveling of Israel that is self-destructing in their lust to destroy Iran.

The reality, that Trump is either unaware of, or choses to blot out his disintegrating brain, is that he's been defeated in every war goal.

Trump didn’t obliterate Iran’s nuclear bomb program. He’s made it infinitely more likely Iran will develop the bomb before Israel drops some of their 300 on Tehran. This may be the worst self-fulfilling prophesy in history.

Trump didn't achieve regime change in Iran.

Trump didn't get Iran to surrender unconditionally or in any other way whatsoever. Iran refuses to talk to the most dishonest, duplicitous diplomatic negotiator on earth.

Trump didn't destroy Iran's missile and drone defense. Iran is likely saving its most powerful to complete their destruction of the US, Israeli war machine.

Trump didn't destroy Iran as Israel's last remaining hegemon rival in the Middle East, the primary reason he attacked on February 28.

Trump didn't reopen the Strait of Hormuz as promised. It's closure to Iran's enemies is creating worldwide economic disaster.

As Trump was spinning his inevitable colossal defeat as victory, Iranian missiles and drones were raining down on US Gulf States bases and thruout Israel. The Strait of Hormuz remained closed as gas prices continue endlessly upward.

Trump will remain trapped like the rat while killing more thousands before his cabinet invokes the 25th amendment to take away his license to kill and destroy. Or so America, the Middle East, the entire world can hope.
