@pbsnews: What would the United States have to do to win a war with Iran? The answer depends on how you define "winning," according to The Atlantic’s Nancy Youssef. "One option would be to declare victory again," Youssef told moderator Jeffrey Goldberg on Friday. President Donald Trump's other options, Youssef said, include escalating the conflict, continuing economic sanctions or trying to return to the negotiating table. On Monday, Trump said the U.S. and Iran were in contact with each other and that newly renewed talks between the two sides were Iran's "last chance" to avoid escalating the war. Washington Week with The Atlantic is a partnership between @pbsnews, WETA-TV and @theatlantic, airing every Friday on PBS stations nationwide.

USA sets three objectives 1. Regime change 2. Reducing ballistic missiles capabilities 3. Destroying 400kg enriched Uranium However all objectives never met. That means USA lost the war. They failed to win the war based on those three objectives.

The only way Trump could win is a massive ground invasion that overthrows the existing government. That will also force thousands of US casualties. Short of that Iran is keeping the Strait of Hormuz closed.

Iran knows this game better than any. They have fought great worries throughout their history. Trump is making a fool out of himself day by day as time goes

The US lost war the day we bombed an elementary school. How could we expect a population to overthrow their govt after that. We lost on day 1.

there is no winning this war Iran has already won. We’re out of interceptor missiles, and we don’t have the capability to infiltrate.
