Military operations can be designed as short-term conflicts with defined objectives, followed by diplomatic negotiations to achieve lasting settlements; the duration of active combat does not necessarily indicate an endless war, as periods of ceasefire and negotiation are integral parts of comprehensive conflict resolution strategies.

JD Vance Asked: What Is Your Message To American People About Why The War Hasn't Ended Yet?Added:
Okay.
>> Have uh >> John, >> I'm gonna call on John. I'm just gonna start calling John Rash.
>> John of the Daily Mail.
>> Yes.
>> Great. Great to see you.
>> Great to see you, too. Thank you.
>> Um so, Trump initially said that the war would last 6 weeks. We are now, it's been going on for 11 weeks and 3 days.
What's your uh message to the American people as to why it's gone on so long and it hasn't ended yet?
>> Well, first of all, the president said it's going to be a short-term operation and I think that has proven out to be true. The active period of conflict lasted about five five and a half weeks.
And now we've been in the ceasefire where we're trying to get a negotiated settlement that gets the American people the things that we need for our national security. So I've said before that we're going to go one of two options here.
We're going to have a good settlement that actually gets the American people what they need or we're going to go back to a kinetic operation. Obviously the president prefers to get that settlement. I think the Iranians prefer to get that settlement. But regardless of what direction the president ultimately goes down, whatever he ultimately decides, I think it's important for the American people to know two things. Number one, it will be for their security and their prosperity.
That's why we're doing this. And number two, it will not this is not going to be the sort of thing that lasts forever. I think a lot of Americans, especially in my generation, who are worried about forever endless conflicts. We have to remember, I think you said 11 weeks, a big chunk of that has been a ceasefire.
This is not a forever war. We're going to take care of business and come home.
That's what the president's promised and that's exactly what he's going to deliver.
