If Iran were to give in to US demands today, what would have been gained that wasn't in place under the earlier treaty?

I’m not elevating them above Jesus, but Jesus did not condemn being a soldier... It might be good respond to this argument claiming Jesus' allowance or support for fighting in wars.
