Some conservatives and Fox News commentators are saying something about the conflict with Iran that sounds totally correct, but it’s actually not true. Such comments are the result of the sad inability to think logically about complicated questions.
President Trump is being criticized for accepting the ceasefire while Iran still “controls” the Strait of Hormuz. And, if the war ends with Iran remaining in control of the strait, we’re being told such a conclusion would be worse than when the conflict started. I know that sounds right, but it isn’t.
