He's like a 16-year head start.

I know, but we were ahead of him in the past.

So it's time for us to take the lead again, guys.

Come on.

Yeah, that's right.

I mean, the Iranians are sending back, here are what our demands are.

And as much as you might think the Iranian demands sound delusional, things like reparations, their demands are actually much less delusional than the American demands are at this point.

Because from the Iranian perspective, they're like, we're winning this war.

Like, you just had to taco.

You threatened to blow up our entire electrical grid.

We were like, all right, bet.

Then we'll blow up, you know, various assets in the region.

And Trump, just before the markets was open, was like, what?

So let's press pause for five days.

Now, I continue to be of the opinion, and I think Sagar, based on his comments just now, is also of the opinion that a lot of this is just buying time for Trump to amass these additional forces in the region, once again, using alleged diplomacy.

This diplomacy doesn't even exist.

It's fictional diplomacy as a ruse in order to pursue whatever next escalation he wants to pursue.

And then meantime, by the way, the war is ongoing.

It's not like, you know, Israel struck within Iran yesterday.

There were, and then Iran struck back.
