Recall that the Strait of Hormuz was open <em>before<\/em> Trump began bombing Iran. At best, the agreement Trump is touting restores the status quo to where it was when he commenced hostilities. Remember also that Iran had agreed to limit its development of nuclear-grade materials in its treaty with the Obama administration, which Trump revoked in 2018. <\/p>\n<p>So what has been accomplished? Iran now is under the control of a more extremist regime than when Trump started this war. Oil prices are far higher, and will take some time to return to where they were before it began (if they ever do). Meanwhile, Trump has caused the United States to be more dependent on fossil fuels than we were prior to his inauguration for a second time, and the high oil prices brought on by his war has enriched Vladimir Putin\u2019s regime. <\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nextaddressamerica.com\/?p=1620\">Trump\u2019s AG pick accused of massive corruption cover-up<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The war with Iran has cost the United States an estimated $90 billion, and that\u2019s a conservative estimate. It has caused widespread suffering throughout the Middle East. It has put Israel in a more precarious situation than it was before \u2014 and much of that is due to Benjamin Netanyahu, who is not a party to, and has not approved, the agreement. <\/p>\n<p>This doesn\u2019t look like a victory. Compared to where the United States and the Middle East were on February 28, when Trump began this war, it\u2019s a terrible failure. <\/p>\n<p>Robert Reich is a professor of public policy at Berkeley and former secretary of labor.
