different ideas and different concepts that would basically get us to the point where we would need to take action against Iran.

And they knew that President Trump had always said, no nuclear weapon for Iran.

And so they took this line of zero enrichment, knowing that the Iranians had a red line of their own.

And the Iranian red line

was very pragmatic.

It was that they wanted the ability to enrich uranium.

And it's kind of common sense why.

It's because they watched Qaddafi in Libya say, hey, I don't have any more nuclear weapons.

I'll give them all up.

Look what happened to him.

Or if you bluff or you try to develop nuclear weapons, you end up like Saddam Hussein.

And so the Iranians had this, I just call it the Goldilocks solution, where they said, you know, we don't have nuclear weapons, but we could have them if we want them.

And so that was their red line.

So the Israelis came in and they took this talking point.

And to my knowledge, and people can fact check me on this,

To my knowledge, you know, the first Trump official who said, you know, no enrichment for Iran, it was Mike Pompeo in the first Trump administration.

And I haven't seen anyone else come in and say, like, this is the U.S.

policy.

However, it was repeated enough in official channels that they can't have enrichment.

Enrichment equals, like Lindsey Graham would say, 10 nuclear bombs in 10 days or something just absolutely absurd.
