It's absolutely serious.
It's absolutely significant.
I'm glad the Saudi forces are partnering with local Yemeni authorities to push back on the Houthis.
The Houthis landed some pretty damning blows against southern Saudi Arabia just a few days ago.
It's critical that as the regime is being boxed in from all sides, the proxies feel the same pressure as well.
So kudos to the Saudis and also to the U.S.
diplomatically for holding the line and supporting them.
Well, first and foremost, a happy 4th to you and the viewers and listeners.
Ironically, and I don't mean that sassily, there are some sort of public events in the Islamic Republic today, but they're not the celebrations of America's birthday, but they're the beginning of a week-long funeral for the country's former Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
who was killed in the early hours of the U.S.
and Israeli airstrikes against the Islamic Republic in February.
The funeral will be going on for a week.
And you can tell if the funeral is going to be going on for a week, perhaps the government of the Islamic Republic isn't going to be putting its best foot forward or sending its best, if you will, for negotiations that are supposed to be going on for the next week as well.
I see these talks as a time buying mechanism, to be brutally honest with you,
a way for the Islamic Republic to be able to get some sanctions relief during these 60 days, and then to create the conditions where America feels like there's enough normalcy in the Strait of Hormuz to look the other way, while also kind of continuing to tempt us with things that we are interested in getting, like access to that highly enriched uranium, like the restoration of IEA inspectors, and to be able to push Trump into a pay-to-play scheme, like the Islamic Republic was able to push other presidents
So the question is not what do we believe is being said to be true, but what do we think in the heart of hearts of the U.S.
President Donald Trump?
What will he settle for?
Yes, that's the primary vector of sanctions relief.
I'm glad you mentioned that because there was a special license given, General License X, that changes or waives penalties not in one or two, but in 11.
