Isn't it weird that no one seems to know what's going on with respect to Iran?

In other times, wouldn't the US media be highlighting a lot more grave concern about the opaque intentions of their government?   

The BBC says:

Iran has said it has reached an understanding with the US on the main "guiding principles" to resolve their dispute over Tehran's nuclear programme.

Why aren't there (some? any ? more?) commentators saying "wait a minute. I thought the Trump strikes on their nuclear facility was supposed to have shut it down?"
