So it's already asymmetric.
But Iran has said, OK, we'll do it asymmetrically.
But put us under this.
Don't put us under the bombs.
So all I'm saying is,
There's no sense in which the exit ramp means Iran becomes the great threat to Israel and the dominant threat.
But what it does mean, and I think this is really the fundamental point here, I have to say, greater Israel is an untenable project.
This is the most basic point.

If you believe that Israel should control all of this land, should, and if you take Israel's leadership, that they will, I would still advise Donald Trump, don't fall for it.
