00:00Attacking Iran was based on the Iranian people are ready to get out, to topple the regime inside.
00:06That didn't happen. It was mentioned yesterday in the Channel 13 of Israel.
00:10They said that they were preparing these Kurdish people to do some sort of incursion from the western part of
00:17Iran.
00:17They were preparing them in Israel and to send them from the western part of Iran to do some sort
00:22of...
00:22But that didn't happen. This is not the way it works.
00:26You know, since the revolution has happened in Iran, there are people outside, mostly outside of Iran.
00:31I would say Iranian diaspora, they don't know what's going on in Iran.
00:35They have no connection with Iranian people, with Iranian society, and they don't know the complexity of the society.
00:43I was, you know, I was outside of Iran for more than 12 years.
00:47When I got back, I said, it was huge what has happened in Iran, the tremendous changes in Iran, within
00:53the Iranian society.
00:54You see the improvement under the tremendous sanctions.
00:58Compare Iran with Venezuela, with Cuba. It's not even comparable.
01:02You go today to Iran, you see to the city of Tehran, all these major cities.
01:07You see no... That's why I don't want to go that far to explain what's going on in Iran.
01:13What's important right now? What are the options for the United States?
01:17I think the major issue right now is the trade-off for most.
01:20Are they going to be able to open it up with the use of the force?
01:25I assume that the Trump administration got to the point.
01:28They're running out of interceptors, missiles, offensive and defensive missiles.
01:33During the war, the THAT system were destroyed. Four of them.
01:37These are not... They don't have that much of these air defense systems.
01:41You see the interceptors.
01:42Yet last night, the attacks... You mentioned the attack on Iranian soil.
01:45They said that Iran is putting back the mines in the Strait of Hormuz
01:49because the rhetoric is that there is no mine in the Strait.
01:54But today we've learned one of the tankers, super tankers, was hit,
01:57was struck by these mines in the Strait of Hormuz.
02:00So they didn't remove... It's all about the rhetoric.
02:03You make the rhetoric and you believe that rhetoric would work for you.
02:07But the reality is hitting the economies of these countries in the region.
02:12This is not the solution for what's going on.
02:14The solution would be coming back to some sort of negotiations,
02:19talks between the two sides.
02:20Is the capability of the...
02:23What do we know about the Trump administration and their capability?
02:28So far, they have Steve Whitcock, Jared Kushner.
02:30They tried to negotiate.
02:31Then Iran said, we're not going to negotiate with them.
02:34Then you see J.D. Vance coming to the negotiations.
02:38But nothing has happened.
02:39There is no negotiations going on between the two sides.
02:42There is no military solution for what's going on in the Strait of Hormuz.
02:46I think what's going on at the end of the day,
02:49the United States is trying...
02:50Donald Trump is trying to find an off-ramp for his administration.
02:54Okay.
02:55Because the midterm elections are coming,
02:56and this tit-for-tat war would not work for Donald Trump.
03:00I'm on YouTube for Donald Trump.
03:02Let's look.
