00:00I just wanted to start by asking you whether you'd seen the latest comments that President Trump has put out
00:04on Truth Social, in which he says Iran's new leader has just asked the United States for a ceasefire.
00:11And he says that he is considering that ceasefire, but won't grant it until such time as the Strait of
00:17Hormuz is open.
00:19What do you make of all of that?
00:20Well, I think that's good news. I woke up this morning smelling a ceasefire after watching activities in the last
00:28few days.
00:31The clarion cry from around the world, the impact that this war is having on the global economy, two major
00:40choke points in the Suez and in the Strait of Hormuz, will choke the world economy.
00:48And the impact on the Gulf states, let alone the destruction of much infrastructure inside of Iran, way beyond the
00:59military targets.
01:00I think that leaves ones to pause.
01:03As the Pope and others have called for, it's time for a ceasefire and declare victory and go home and
01:12let the diplomats sort out a way forward.
01:15That's what I smell this morning, is a ceasefire in the air.
