And I had to confess, I made a mistake.

I always said 30 years because I dated it to clean break, 1996.

But I didn't know Netanyahu before he was prime minister.

I didn't know that he had 10 years more of dreaming of this war.

So the off-ramp

violates not only the American conditions of defending its imperial strength, but the Israeli dream of full control over the region.

And that's why the off-ramp is so hard.

I have to say one more thing, just because it is a little bit of a complicated picture.

It's not incidental, and I don't want anyone to think I'm naive in this.

When we talk about why the United States wants Iran within the U.S.

empire, why it overthrew Mossadegh in 1953,

Remember the oil, so I don't want to forget to mention that.

That's not only a 1953 issue that was aimed to ensure that Iran would not take back its oil from British and then American interests.

Trump absolutely, without question, no doubt, 100%,

is as strongly beholden to the oil lobby as he is to the Zionist lobby.

And he said so vividly, vocally in 2024.

He said, raise a billion dollars for me.

It's a deal.

You'll get all the benefits from this.

What he did in Venezuela, he thought he was about to do in Iran as well.
