And I think you said it very well. You're talking about endlessly destabilizing the rest of the region. To say nothing of, you know, attacking people like the Israelis, both directly and indirectly. And by the way, attacking through the Houthis, us directly. You know, it's the old Einstein, you know, crazy theory. It isn't working. It hasn't worked. It won't, in my estimation, work.

Try something different. And I think the different thing is, you know, he took out Soleimani. That was a huge step. And there are a few others in his food chain that we need to take down, too. And it could make all the difference, honestly.

Well, it could have been an accident. I think the probability that it was an accident goes down when there were, as I say, not one but two other incidents in other places, one not far from the airport in Tehran, as I understand it, and the other, the Isfahan nuclear complex region. One's an accident, two may be a larger problem, but three is a plan.

And I think what we're talking about here is the Israelis activating capabilities that, amazingly, they still have inside Iran to do destruction on an immense scale. I mean, partly that's their work. They're targeting highly flammable things like solid missile weapons. propellant. You light that stuff off and you're going to get a big bang.

But more to the point, I think this is evidence that they know that time's up. And I think this is doing what they can without going frugally at the Trump administration. The Trump administration's desire to Not to do it just yet. Maybe soon, but not just yet. Well, I think the Israelis are right. We're on borrowed time. And I've been for years.

But it's now really the point at which there's plenty of highly enriched uranium that we know about. And estimations of how highly enriched it is, it differ. But it's close enough for government work, I believe.

And the idea that, well, maybe they've got all that, but they haven't figured out how to weaponize it or to actually integrate it into the immense number of missiles that they've got or other delivery system. Well, that's whistling past the graveyard, Mike. You can bet one thing's for sure. Having invested... Countless billions of dollars and decades now to acquire this stuff.
