00:00I didn't say I was looking for a ceasefire, that was Emmanuel, nice guy, but he doesn't
00:05get it right too often, but we're not looking, we're looking for better than a ceasefire.
00:10That's just what you're looking to get into this more, you're not going to let the U.S.
00:14in this moment, is that you're going to do anything more for Israel right now?
00:19We're doing pretty well, right now we're doing pretty well.
00:22Remember, Iran cannot have any nuclear weapons, very simple, we don't have to go too deep into
00:28it, but they just can't have a nuclear weapon.
00:30What was the thinking on the call for Iran to evacuate?
00:34Is there a threat or is there incoming, what was the thinking on the full evacuation?
00:37I want people to be safe, and that's always possible, a thing like that could happen.
00:43I just want people to be safe.
00:45Is there any new concern about U.S. troops or assets in the region at all today?
00:51Great people, they know how to protect themselves.
00:54And when you say better, what's the...
00:55Well, we'll come down so hard if they do anything to our people.
00:58We'll come down so hard, and then loves her all so beautifully.
01:02Now, they...
01:03I think they know not to touch our troops.
01:09Are you sending the vice...
01:10Yeah, we're not troops.
01:12Do you plan to send the vice president and Steve Wyckoff?
01:16There's reports that you want to send the vice president and Steve Wyckoff to meet with
01:19the Iranians and have discussions.
01:21Is that something you're considering?
01:23Not sure yet.
01:23I may.
01:24Depends on what happens when I get back.
01:26What specifically is better than a ceasefire?
01:29What are you looking for here?
01:32An end.
01:33A real end, not a ceasefire.
01:34An end.
01:35So something that will be permanent?
01:36Yeah.
01:37Or giving up entirely.
01:40It's okay, too.
01:41Are you closer?
01:42Are you possible?
01:43Is that possible?
01:44The next 24.5?
01:44Why not?
01:45Certainly impossible.
01:47A complete give up.
01:50That's possible.
01:50Is the chairman of the Joint Chiefs and the Secretary of Defense drawn up plans for you if Iran were
01:57to attack U.S. bases or do any damage to U.S. bases?
02:01I can't do that.
02:02I just can't do that.
02:02Can I ask you, because there's been some skepticism, is there any guarantee that if the U.S. did
02:07get involved militarily that a U.S. bomb could destroy Iran's nuclear program and facilities?
02:13Do you think if the U.S. got involved militarily, it would actually wipe out Iran's nuclear program?
02:27Or where's your assessment of that?
02:28I hope their program's going to be wiped out long before then.
02:33But they're not going to have a nuclear weapon.
02:35What do you want to be stupid?
02:37Do you believe the Israelis are going to slow down?
02:38Or are they going to hit the accelerator right now?
02:40We're going to see if you find out over the next few days.
02:43We're going to find out.
02:44Has the gang of eight been notified about what's coming in the next couple days?
02:51We'll be talking to them.
02:53It's not necessary.
02:54What can you do in Washington that you wouldn't do in Canada?
02:58Just be a little bit, I think, more...
