You know, you never like to say too
0:01
early you won. We won. We won the battle
0:03
in the first hour it was over.
0:05
>> Back in March, President Trump declared
0:07
the war in Iran was over. But it wasn't.
0:10
[music] Since then, 18 American service
0:12
members have died. Iran has declared a
0:15
return to full-scale war, and the
0:17
fighting continues.
0:19
So, if we won, why are Americans still
0:22
fighting? Today Explain asked that
0:24
question to Tom Nichols, who spent 25
0:27
[music] years teaching national security
0:29
at the U.S. Naval War College. Now, he's
0:33
a staff writer at The Atlantic, [music]
0:35
where he recently argued that Americans
0:37
deserve a clearer explanation of this
0:40
war.
0:40
>> I think he's lying, misleading people,
0:42
exaggerating, making misstatements, but
0:45
in some cases, just flat-out telling
0:48
lies. And when he says, for example,
0:50
Iran is desperate to make a deal.
0:52
>> And they want to make a deal so badly
0:53
they called
0:55
a little while ago. They want to make a
0:56
deal so badly. They want to meet
0:58
desperately to try and end it because
1:00
they're getting decimated.
1:02
>> He's back to that one. I was trying to
1:03
count up how many times he said things
1:06
like the war is over. And months into
1:09
the war, he had said that something like
1:10
30 times already. When you've said the
1:12
war is over 30 times, well, you're
1:15
launching weapons and missiles are
1:17
falling on your troops. That's That's
1:20
just a lie.
1:21
>> We've won this with This war has been
1:23
won. So, I think we won.
1:24
>> The Iranians almost seem to launch an
1:27
attack every time Trump says they're
1:29
desperate for a deal just to underscore
1:31
the point that no, they're not desperate
1:33
for a deal. And the one deal we had
1:36
that the president touted as this great
1:39
deal,
1:41
this MOU, was actually a terrible deal,
1:43
was inherently unstable, and it was the
1:45
foundation of a cease-fire where nobody
1:48
ceased firing. It was a fake cease-fire.
1:51
For now, what the American people need
1:52
to hear is
1:53
this is what we want, this is the price
1:56
we're willing to pay to it. This is what
1:57
we want from the Iranians, and that's
2:00
what would [music] bring this to a
2:01
close.
