Meanwhile, lots of innocent lives have been lost, the regime is still where it was before even if some of the faces have changed, there is an E2 that is missing a little piece of its tail, the price of oil has gone up considerably (that may have been an actual objective) and we've been distracted for a while from the Epstein files.

If you think there was an item in the above list that qualifies as an objective then that's fine by me but for me these do not cross that threshold.
