Got to laugh. We aren't in a war with Iran, we aren't bombing Iran. Iran's economy is in a free fall. They can't even buy fuel to get their ships home from Brazil. They act out and take a UK oil tanker and everyone is running around with their hair on fire, saying failed policy.
When the truth is the exact opposite. The fact that Iran acted out today tells you the policy is working. Iran is getting desperate. That was the plan. If they get really desperate they will either come to the table, go to war or be overthrown. Either way they won't have nukes
That is the goal. Iran was never going to give up their nuke program with bribing them or being nice. They will only give them up by force or a leadership change. The force can be economic(Trump's first choice) or military. Leadership change will only happen via revolt/military.
So the policy is working as intended. Iran leadership is getting desperate. How they handle that desperation can not be known. How Trump handles those acts of desperation can be pretty well guessed. As with any confrontation there is a chance of things spinning out of control.
However, so far with every confrontation Trump has engaged in things have not spun out of control. Could it happen? Sure. Likely? Nope. So, I see no reason to get excited until it's time to get excited. I'll wait to see how it plays out.
