Like they they.

Wrapped up Maduro and they told the vice president, look, you need to play ball.

And I mean, obviously, the jury's still out on how far that's going to go, how how how well they're going to work with the United States and stuff.

But all indications are that they're like, OK, yeah, we'll go ahead and do this.

I read a story about the vice president that.

We're not the vice president, but the person that won the Nobel Peace Prize, that she was supposed to be the president, that Maduro stole the election.

She was going back and they were going to organize new elections, I think, in the fall.

And I mean, again, if it works out, then it seems like a method worth trying.

Now, obviously, like I said, Iran is not the same place as Venezuela.

The culture is different, but.

If the if the Trump administration's goal is, all right, we're going to get you to the table and find someone that actually wants to work with us and we're going to use violence to do it.

I mean, it's it's it's not something that I'm that I that I can say that I endorse, but it's better than having a 20 year quagmire.

Yeah.

And it's kind of mess around.

Yeah, and I think that's part of the calculation.

If they actually can get Iran to stop funding Hamas, stop funding Hezbollah, stop giving weapons and arms to the Houthis, stop, you know, I think it was the Houthis that were going after Saudi Arabia as well, right?

Yeah, so like if they can get that to stop, I think the region will look at this as an overall good thing.

And again, I don't know that it's going to work.

I'm not saying that I'm for the...

the attacks, but at the same time, if they can get those kind of behaviors to stop the Iranian regime, that's something that the whole Middle East is going to say, well, this is good.
