Nobody takes the Board of Peace seriously.

People are indulging Donald Trump very much like the president of FIFA gave him a trophy calling him, you know, the FIFA Peace Prize, right?

The Board of Peace is no different.

These are world leaders who are preoccupied with governing their countries, trying to deal with all kinds of issues domestically and internationally.

And they have to deal with a narcissistic American president who just wants to constantly make himself king of the world.

And so instead of standing up to him and confronting him, much to our detriment as American citizens who would like to see the world also stand up to an American president.

They have to kind of go along with it because they have to take care of their constituents.

And in some cases, these countries just don't want to be in an open, direct confrontation with the United States rhetorically or even economically.

Right.

I mean, some of the policies that that these countries are embarking on just to go along with the U.S.

is to avoid tariffs and to avoid confrontation and.

try to placate a president who is like extremely narcissistic.

So again, do I think that the Board of Peace is going to deliver on anything?

I personally don't.

I don't know anyone who's purely optimistic about it other than Jared Kushner.

But again, I think he's selling a real estate plan.

I don't think he's genuinely selling any kind of just mechanism for the Palestinian people or security for Israeli people.

Yeah, I mean, listen, I definitely want to answer that.

But I was going to actually ask you because, you know, Riza Pahlavi was speaking at the Munich Security Conference.

And actually I was going to ask you about that in terms of, I don't know if you had a chance to hear him talk, but I'm curious to get your thoughts about how he's kind of been elevated on the global stage now, right?
