Two of those have been completely wiped off the map.
Their terrorist proxies are not going to deter anybody.
And their strikes on Kuwait, Bahrain, UAE, Saudi have driven the Gulf states, our Gulf allies, into alliance with Israel, not into weakness vis-a-vis Iran.
So that left them with one choke point and one choke point only, and that's the Strait of Hormuz.
If they give that up, then basically they become a hermit state without even a nuclear weapon.
And then they are unbelievably vulnerable internally.
And don't pay attention to all the reporting suggesting that there is nothing roiling under the surface in Iran.
Again, there were millions of people in the streets before this war.
What do you think is going to happen when all of this is over?
Everybody's just going to go back to sleep?
When the IRGC is in the weakest position it has likely ever been?
When the Iranian army, the artash, and the IRGC are not exactly on the same page.
The IRGC, by the way, again, they're doing thing that a last gasp regime does right now.
They're declaring dead people their leaders.
Moshtaba Khomeini is not the actual leader of Iran.

All of this is a mark of a regime that is on its last leg.
Not last legs, last leg.
In just a moment, we're about to get to Iran trying to back out of a deal that it kind of made, did it make?
