And they have to do it effectively. They're really going to get one shot at this.

So I would say it's loose. The Iranians and its access of resistance, that includes Hezbollah, that includes the Iraqi and Syrian militias, that includes the Houthis, groups like Hamas. The Iranians are never going to ask these groups to do something. A, they don't believe, the Iranians don't believe that these groups can carry out, that includes the Houthis.

And if there's concern, so it's a back and forth. right the iranians have a good read on the capabilities of these groups what they can and can't get away with but if they're you know so if the the iranians are never going to order the houthis to do something but they can advise them they can encourage them they provide the weapons systems and the advisors so it's that sort of relationship and

As far as the Houthis go, this is one of the questions that I have. Are we dealing with a symptom of the disease or are we dealing with the cause? Striking at the Houthis, it's necessary. It's something we have to do. But if you really want the Houthis to stop... You hit the Iranians. You hit them hard. You make the Iranians pay.

You kill their IRGC operatives that are advisors and building weapons systems within Yemen and other places. And you also show the Iranians that they're weak at home. You pick targets inside of Iran. That's the real weakness of the Iranians is... And that's why they have this access of resistance. They have groups like the Houthis and Hezbollah. Because it's the way of projecting power.

But it also shows how weak they are. If they're shown to be weak at home, that is something that they can't tolerate. That is something that could really get them to force the Houthis and Hezbollah and Hamas to draw back. That could get the Iranians to order them. That's a situation where the Iranians feel they are truly threatened. These groups would comply with that.

What do you make of all of that? I don't think the Trump administration is going to get what it wants and what it needs. The problem with our negotiations in the past is it's decoupled Iran's nuclear program with its support for these militias across the Middle East or that access of resistance. That was one of the big problems with the JPCOA.

And I suspect that it's going to be a big problem with this. And also the Iranians. are going to try and run out the clock. They're going to string the U.S. along. They're going to say and do enough things to keep Trump advisors and particularly the State Department, which loves negotiations for the sake of negotiations. And that doesn't matter who is running the State Department.
