And we need to understand the makeup of Iran as a country so we can understand how we got to Hezbollah, how we got to Hamas, because Hamas is for sale.
Hamas was paid by Iran.
They're Sunni, but the Shia paid for them.
In Iran...
I want to be fair to you and to the listeners.
I want to take a step back.
Many people say the reason why the Muslim world is successful, and they mean the UAE and Saudi Arabia, they say is because they pushed Islam to the side, not because Islam is good in these countries.
That's what they say.
And of course, that's not right.
In Iran, we have a system where the clerics rule over not only the government, but also the hospitals, the technology sector, the education sector.
There is no sector in Iran, in the intelligence, that the clerics are not ruling in.
So you cannot have a fully functioning system
vibrant society when you don't have experts on top.
The UAE, what they did was they respected religion.
Religion is sacred.
It cannot be placed in an intelligence department or in a hospital.
So they bring experts to these fields.
That is the difference, my brother.
That's the difference.
Iran went down this path of destruction because it is run by mullahs.
