Actually, we're doing peace talks.

We're pushing this off for five days.

And this is, again, market manipulation stuff, right?

We're only at war during the weekend when the markets are closed.

So this is what these negotiations are, right?

And that's why Iran immediately goes like, no, we're not in negotiations, and then released their own five-point plan to end the war in which the U.S.

would pay war damages.

And they've been really consistent about this, which is the U.S.

will pay war damages and reparations

And in this one, and also, you know, there was a whole thing about obviously like the U.S.

stopping the war.

They're bringing deterrent measures in place to keep the U.S.

from doing it again.

They want the U.S.

to have its regional proxies stand down, which would also presumably end the other major thing that's going on in this war, which is just Israel ethnically cleansing the south of Lebanon.

We just we just released an episode about this.

It's very good.

Yeah, to make a defensive barrier.

Yeah.

And the last part about this, and this is the part that I think is the real kind of clincher here, is that it would give Iran control over the Strait of Hormuz.
