00:00I think we're going to maybe get something, but I want to give them every last chance before decapitation.
00:06Very tough to do what we have planned, still planned.
00:11We'll see what happens, but it's a very, very tough thing to do.
00:15I think I'm very proud of the fact that I will give people a chance.
00:20This is a big move.
00:21To do an attack that big on a country, I'd rather not do it.
00:26Now, we've already through lots of large attacks, but they were normal large.
00:34Hopefully, they'll come to their senses, because what happened cannot have a nuclear weapon, but hopefully, they'll come to their
00:41senses.
00:42So they called me, and they said, please don't attack.
00:46We'll make a deal.
00:48That's the real truth, and everyone knows it.
00:51And who wouldn't call?
00:53People, and they found out through leaks and sleazebags, you know, a lot of sleazebags, leakers.
01:00Leakers should be put in jail.
01:01They have to strengthen up the laws for leakers.
01:05But in this case, leakers helped, because they said the severity of the attack, and Iran knew it.
01:13They knew what was coming.
01:14It was going to come last night, and it would have gone on for a long time, and there'd be
01:19essentially very little left.
01:21There'd be nothing left.
01:22Are the talks with Iran now off, and are airstrikes back on?
01:26No, they're on.
01:26They're going on right now.
01:27It's an amazing thing.
01:28We have a little problem with Iran, because we have many talks, and we'll say we have or we don't
01:34have.
01:34You know, we're straight about it.
01:36But they deny it.
01:37But they're not denying it now.
01:38They just put out a statement, not denying it.
01:40But for some reason, when they're talking, they don't like saying that they're talking.
01:46So I say, wait, we're in talks.
01:48Big deal.
01:49We're in talks.
01:50And they'll sometimes deny it, even though they spend hours and hours together talking.
01:55No.
01:56The talks are going along.
01:58We were going to hit them very hard yesterday.
02:00Very, very hard.
02:01Harder than any attack.
02:03I think I can say, generals, from a point of knowledge, any attack since World War II that's pretty big.
02:12And we were set to go.
02:13And they called.
02:14And in addition, Saudi Arabia called.
02:18And UAE called.
02:20Qatar called.
02:22Got calls from numerous people.
02:24I don't want to use the word begging, but somewhere, in particular, Iran did not want to be hit.
02:32And they said, we want to talk.
02:34We want to talk about the strait.
02:36But more importantly, from my standpoint, we want to talk about the denuclearization of Iran.
02:42Because this is what it's all about.
02:43This is why I'm doing this.
02:45And it should have been done.
02:46It's now 50 years.
02:47We keep saying 47 years.
02:49But three years have gone by.
02:50But it's for 50 years that other presidents should have been doing what I, or other countries.
02:57Didn't have to be us, but other countries.
03:00And nobody did it.
03:01And it was time.
03:02And we hit them hard with the B2s more than a year ago now.
03:05And that knocked out their capability, their potential capability.
03:11And we've done a great job.
03:13But when we talk, we say we're talking.
03:15If we're not talking, when you ask me, no, we're not talking.
03:17I'll say it.
03:18But we are talking right now.
03:19And we're talking at the request of Iran, backed by Saudi Arabia, backed by UAE, and backed by Qatar in
03:29particular.
03:30But others also.
03:31Many, many countries called.
03:32Many, the leaders of many are friendly with a lot of them.
03:35Almost all of them, one way or the other.
03:38And they all wanted to give this a last chance.
03:41This is a last chance.
03:42Thanks, Alex.
03:42Thanks.
03:42Thanks.
03:43You
