After 48 days of war with Iran, the US and Iran have agreed to a two-week ceasefire with promised conditions.
The war between the Islamic Republic and the US and Israel broke out on Feb. 28, in which direct strikes assassinated Iran’s dictator, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
According to the United States and Israel, the goal of the attack by the Iranian dictatorship was to stop their advancement with nuclear bombs and missiles. The attack on Iran was a promise by President Donald Trump to the Iranians following the national protest of the Iranians against the government.
After the mass murder of over 90 thousand protestors in two days following assassinations and death penalties of the survivors. The United States and Israel executed the attack on the Iranian government through waves of air strikes and targeted attacks.
In response to the attacks, the Iranian officials closed the Strait of Hormuz and threatened to harm the ships passing through.
With the cost of the war growing at a rapid pace and the growing casualties on both sides, a ceasefire stopped the war for a period of two weeks, with conditions that restricted the government and opened the Strait of Hormuz.
However, now almost a month after the start of the ceasefire, the Iranian government has proved inconsistent with the conditions and has once again broken its promises. Executions and mass killings have continued, and the state of the country has remained unchanged.
Although the strikes succeeded in eliminating some of the most powerful officials of the dictatorship in Iran, the cruel actions of the government continue.
The remaining conditions of the Islamic Republic raise the question of the purpose of the war.
Although the war gained the support of Iranian people, hoping for the destruction of the regime at first, its ineffectiveness now proves more harm than good.
With the casualties of American soldiers and the continued harassment of the Islamic regime of its neighboring countries, debate has risen surrounding the war.
