The regime change objective was a failure. I’m also perplexed at how the Iranians are still able to shut down the strait. I’d think that our overwhelming military superiority should be able to secure the area. We own the air!

Successes…we’ve damaged Iran’s far-reaching military capabilities. They aren’t attacking Israel. Their support Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Houthies (sp?) has been degraded.

Long term consequences…how long will it take for the world economy to recover?
