Khamenei needs to understand that the United States of America and Israel will use military force to stop him from developing nuclear weapons.
If he didn't believe that before 12 days ago, he now believes that.
And I think that's the credibility of that military force
has to be maintained in order to ensure that he does not break out or sneak out to a nuclear weapon.
I think that's absolutely critical.
Third is I think we have to reach agreements with all the other countries in the Middle East to say, hey, listen, we're demanding zero enrichment and full dismantlement from the Iranians.
You don't get enrichment and you don't get a nuclear program that is capable of developing nuclear weapons.
Our gold standard is the American standard.
Civilian nuclear energy, like 23 countries, no enrichment and reprocess.
We should be consistent.
We should be consistent not just with American allies, but also very clear with American enemies.
I think that's the third important thing we do.
Fourth is I think it's really important
that we find some kind of accommodation between the Israelis and the Palestinians.
We can go down many rabbit holes on that, but I think that lays the predicate for a Saudi-Israeli normalization deal that then brings in multiple Arab countries and Muslim countries.
And finally...
is we talked about the Abraham Accords.
I think we need to start thinking about what did the Cyrus Accords look like, right?
Cyrus was the great Persian king, right?
Who, by the way, brought the Jews back from the diaspora to Jerusalem.
