Oh it's completely impossible to live in a Conservative bubble (though I've never been a Conservative, and only know one guy who is, though he's a Satanist) when 90% of easy access media is EU worshipping/liberal no matter the current European trend, so here we get your bubble as well, whether we want to or not.
The U.S won pretty fast. All the dragging out has been bc of the original strategy of leaving Iran economically intact and waiting for the people to rise up and choose a leader, which Israel and Saudi Arabia wasn't a fan of. Israel and Republicans wants crown prince Reza Pahlavi to be inserted the old western imperialist way, but Trump rejected that publicly.
So it's all about what state you leave the country in, and I guess Reza is always an option come the midterms.
Meanwhile the administration is communicating with the third Iranian government fraction via Pakistani mediators, and repeat what their intentions are. Theirs are different from the leaders, but their current PM seems to def pander to the third fraction to a degree, and their Defense Minister was hated for the MOU deal by the radicals clustered in Tehran.
You don't get much info from Conservative media either, since the ones who gained from the Liberal west's Iraq/Afghan war of economics (which is being reversed) was many. Iraq is on the side of the U.S now since the U.S is out of there end September according to Iraq and the Pentagon.
You gotta find little pieces of info at a time from various sorces in this mad environment
