Which isn't nearly the same thing as declaring the strait open. Nice try, though.

Do you think Operation Project Freedom can avoid being a failure if the strait isn't open? Remember, the goal of the operation was to open the strait for commercial merchant vessels. That was the stated objective. If the strait is still closed, can the operation be said to not have failed?

This is your opinion.


How is that an opinion? The stated goal of the operation was to open the strait to merchant vessels. 97% of the traffic is still blocked. How is that not a failure?
