I would like to see the United States, which is still the strongest power in the world, right?
If you take all of our...
assets as a superpower, militarily, economically, but really importantly, culturally, and in terms of soft power and resources that we can provide to support freeing up societies, I'd like us to better employ that last bit.
And I think that's the missing piece of the puzzle here.
And I think going back to the very first days of this and then to the first set of attacks last June, this question of is there daylight between the Israeli and American plans for this?
And U.S.
officials said, absolutely no daylight.
You know, we're in this together.
We have the same goal.
I don't think that was ever true.
I don't even think they realized what the goal is, right?
And in a situation where you have not had your own diplomatic ties with a country.
the size and scope of Iran, 93 million people, biggest combined oil and gas reserves in the world, a top three national security challenge for half a century, right?
But it's really like a political football.
We should have a national policy towards Iran.
not one that changes every two or four years based on elections that we have in this country.
So I think we missed a lot, and we continue to miss a lot.
And if the reporting that the New York Times had about Israel and the United States hoping to free up Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, the former president, from house arrest to potentially lead Iran
after the regime fell.
It's just really quixotic and kind of ridiculous.
