In Vietnam war, US narrative that gave the impression of continuous victory was Vietcong body count ratio of 10:1+ over dead Americans. Very few ordinary Americans received a cheque (income increase) related to Vietcong body count.
In Iran, US spending $40B + expected Israel reinbursement of their $20B, to blow up over 9000 shit, and more than what Iran blew up can only be related to victory, if it was a goal to have a higher video game score measured in TNT damage. If it was a goal to make oil prices yoyo up and down, but mostly up, then victory achieved. The propaganda about US winning in illegal war on Iran simply can’t be measured in metrics unrelated to goals.
