A Decisive Victory

Sky News:
Donald Trump says the US has received a "workable" 10-point plan from Iran after the two countries agreed to a two-week ceasefire, labelling it a "complete victory" for his nation.
What's in that "workable" plan? Again, from Sky News:
Withdrawal of U.S. forces in the region
Iranian control of the Strait of Hormuz
Compensation for damages to Iran
Removal of sanctions
Release of frozen Iranian assets
Iranian commitment to not build a nuclear weapon
Acceptance of Iran's right to enrich
Iran's agreement to peace treaties with regional countries
Ceasing hostilities against all resistance groups in the region
Provisions backed by UN resolution
So, in summary, all U.S. military objectives have been met, says Pete Hegseth, and, as a workable plan: U.S. forces will withdraw, Iran will gain more control over the Strait of Hormuz, Iran will be compensated, sanctions against Iran will be removed, frozen assets will be released, and Iran will continue to enrich.
You have to wonder what the military objectives were.
