Maybe Israel can create the conditions for it as well.

But in the end, it's up to the Iranian people.

Now, if Myron is right and that the Iranian people are really happily

living under this autocratic rule of the mullahs for 50 years, and there are very few of them that actually support freedom, support democracy, support any different regime, any kind of replacement for the mullahs, he has nothing to worry about because the Iranian people are going to be very content.

But I don't think that they are content.

In fact, there were a lot of them who were on the street and many of them who were killed by the mullahs not that long ago.

So quite clearly, there's a powerful movement of dissent in Iran.

And ultimately, I'm counting on those people, not the people who have been killed, obviously, but people like them to take back their own country.

I'm good.

I said that Trump did not sell this as a regime change war.

And you, Myron, seem to disagree with me by quoting Trump telling the Iranian people, this country is yours to take back for yourselves.

Now, you notice that this quote, far from undermining what I said, actually agrees with it, because what is Trump saying?

He's telling the Iranian people, listen, I'm not going to give you back your country.

You need to take it back.

So I might create the conditions for it to happen, but you're going to have to do it.

Now, I want to address, I think, the bit of the elephant in the room that we haven't addressed, at least not fully today.

And that is this issue of Iraq and Afghanistan that Myron brought up at the very beginning.

And I think that we have learned some lessons from those wars, but we have also learned some bad lessons, some wrong lessons.

The lesson of Afghanistan and Iraq is not that the regime change was bad.

In fact, let's start with Afghanistan, right?
