Do you know of a single, clear, unambiguous prophecy that has come true?

Sure, lots of them. Take for example our Lord Christ Jesus riding into Jerusalem on the foal of a donkey, prophecied in Zechariah 9:9, some 542 years before the event.

We also have our Lord Christ Jesus prophecying to the builders that the Temple would not have one stone left upon another, but His temple would be raised again in three days after His death. The Temple was torn down circa 70 AD, and not one stone left upon another when those tearing it down became aware of the many golden fixtures in the Temple, and when it was burned, believed the gold had melted and drained between the cracks and joints between the building's stonework. They then proceded to tear down the Temple in search for their treasure.

Lets take a look at your prophecy : )

9 Rejoice greatly, O Daughter of Zion! Shout, Daughter of Jerusalem! See, your king [a] comes to you, righteous and having salvation, gentle and riding on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey.

10 I will take away the chariots from Ephraim and the war-horses from Jerusalem, and the battle bow will be broken. He will proclaim peace to the nations. His rule will extend from sea to sea and from the River [b] to the ends of the earth.

Is it just me or isn't verse 10 the important part of the prophecy? Anyone can and millions have ridden a donkey, bringing peace to the world would be a fulfillment of the prophecy.

Obviously Christ did not bring peace to the world. So in conclusion I am amazed (not) that your best fulfilled prophecy has not in fact been fulfilled.
