This is revisionist.

First, when has a bombing run been ‘unsuccessful’ in the modern era? The assassination wasn’t confirmed until after these statements had come out.

Second, these statements were released essentially as soon as these folks woke up.

The rest of the world should be forgiven for taking POTUS at his word when he said he was going to continue negotiations.
