Despite America’s overwhelming military pressure on Iran, Trump has effectively handed over the Strait of Hormuz to Iran: Lt. Gen. Raj Shukla (Retd.)

So I don’t see any real ceasefire: @John_Rossomando If it was just Trump's war, he took significant risks, but the outcomes do not look promising....He is stuck in a difficult position: Lt. Gen. Raj Shukla (Retd.) Defence Expert, Former Army Commander, tells @madhavgk
