Well,

You put it all in their hands.

For the 12-day war to work out the way it did, it relied on Iranian restraint.

maybe for self-preservation, but Iranian restraint nonetheless.

But see, here's the thing, Rob, about relying on restraint for self-preservation.

Once you announce the regime must be destroyed and then you kill the leader of the regime, who, by the way, Rob, is also a very important religious figure to the Shiites, you can't just count on the fact that they're going to do that once again.

And so they've turned this down.

By the way, this is, as is always the question that never gets asked, it's what comes next, which we'll get into a bit more.

But so they kill the Ayatollah and then Trump wants to do a ceasefire.

Okay, they don't want to do a ceasefire.

And the regime has still been responding since the Ayatollah has been killed.

Oh, and Rob, there's a new Ayatollah who's just been appointed.

So it it seems like as of now, all that's been achieved.

Well, there's reportedly like 100 Iranian children have died.

Probably the casualties are much higher than that.

Some Israelis have died.

Some Americans have died.

Some some Iranian children have died.

And now instead of having the Ayatollah who had shown restraint in the past.

who had vowed that due to his religious convictions, he never wanted nuclear weapons.
