Now, you know, will a complete annihilation of the Iranian military result in a loss of the regime?
But this will be the best opportunity, you know, in the history of the, since the beginning of the Islamic Revolution in Iran in the 1970s, this will be the best opportunity for the Iranian people to rise up, take back their country and reform their government and become allies of the West.
I don't know if it's going to happen, but the upside of that happening, if that does happen, even if there's some turbulence along the way, which I would expect, that opportunity for the future of that region and the world itself is so great it really is worth taking the chance.
I mean, the consequence of not doing this, of doing nothing, is a brutal, theocratic, dangerous Iranian regime that will threaten our children and our grandchildren.
Well, this is, you know, these are great philosophical questions that we can sit around and debate.
The answer is, of course, I don't know.
But I think October 7th changed everything.
I mean, we're too close to October 7th to really understand its role in history.
Because, you know, from a historical perspective, it just happened yesterday.
But what it means, I think, is going to prove to be just as important, I think, as the Holocaust.
There'll be museums that will be dedicated to October 7th in the same way that we have Holocaust museums, at least in Israel.
October 7th, I think, was the time that, you know, Israel realized and America realized that...
There were just certain, you know, certain governments, certain regimes, unfortunately, certain people with whom there would be no reconciliation.
There would be no peaceful coexistence.
Israel learned the hard way by seeing how Hamas was elected by the people of Gaza.
There wasn't a single Jew living in Gaza, not a single Israeli IDF soldier on the ground in Gaza.
And yet, with all the money they got, all the aid they got, all the support they got from around the world, they took their money and used it to build terror tunnels.
and weapons that they could shoot into civilian populations in Israel.
So that was a harsh realization, especially since the people that were most affected by October 7th were people on the South who had a very left-leaning perspective on life.
They really wanted to live with the Palestinians.
