America really can't bear it anymore! The US military is going to withdraw! On March 10, according to a report by the Wall Street Journal, Trump's advisors secretly advised Trump to consider a plan to exit the Iran war. They warned that rising oil prices and prolonged conflicts could trigger political backlash. However, Trump said that the action may end soon, but did not provide a timeline.

Evidently, this internal move in the United States indicates what? It indicates that the cost of expanding the conflict has become too much for the United States to bear. The US is increasingly aware that the risks of getting involved are growing larger, which would be a loss for the US. In fact, as these voices within the US surfaced, Iran also made a statement. Iran's Deputy Foreign Minister Gharibabadi stated that several countries, including China and Russia, have contacted Iran, demanding a ceasefire.

Regarding the ceasefire, Tehran's primary condition is no longer launching an invasion. Obviously, both sides have expressed a desire to de-escalate. This round of developments essentially indicates that the US is being forced from "wanting to fight a big war" to "hurriedly pulling out." The US is not withdrawing because it has won, but rather, if the US does not withdraw, it will have to withdraw in a more humiliating way. Iran's message is clear: the US had better withdraw on its own, otherwise, the US will face continuous retaliation.

Of course, if the US were to withdraw on its own, it would be difficult to save face. Trump could certainly declare "victory," but the problem is, what has the US actually gained from this "victory"? The Iranian regime has not been overthrown, the nuclear issue has not been resolved, and more hardened figures have come to power. It's likely that even the US itself doesn't believe it has won. In short, America's hasty initiation of war has put itself in a passive position. Timely cessation of hostilities is not a conclusion of victory for the US, but rather a necessary measure to minimize losses.
