00:00Look, I don't think anyone believes that this will be the end of any kind of disagreements or acrimony between
00:05the United States and Iran.
00:08But I think what's very clear is that the United States is not going to be in a position to
00:13attack Iran militarily again anytime soon.
00:15It's going to think twice before it does that.
00:18That's been the sort of ultimate option that's been on the table for more than 20 years now.
00:22Most American presidents have had the wisdom and the foresight to not use that option for reasons that we have
00:27now seen demonstrated over the last few months.
00:30It doesn't actually work.
00:31In addition to, of course, all the destruction and death that it causes, it's not a very effective method for
00:37dealing with the disagreements between the United States and Iran.
00:40So I would not expect a return to military hostilities.
00:43I think for the United States, frankly, this is a face-saving climb down.
