Us and Israel, we are the belligerents in the region.
They're the ones that really need to be, you know, concerned and striking up defensive positions.
I mean, I think we also need to remember that reporting from last time when Trump pulled back,
You know, which we support the taco.
We are in full support of many Trump tacos, pro taco, especially in this instance.
But there was a report that the Israelis actually like, yo, we're not ready yet.
And, you know, last time, a lot of the indications, which you wouldn't hear in Western press, but what it looked like happened is that the Iranians were able to significantly penetrate Israel's missile defense systems.
They were running low on interceptors and they were like, hey, we got to negotiate some sort of a peace deal for now so that we can rebuild our supplies.
You know, and this is part of the military assets that are being moved to the region as well is more missile defense systems, not just to protect us, but also to protect the Israelis, which is what we always do.
So I think that was the reason for the delay.
That was the reason for the original ceasefire.
That was the reason for the delay in the plans.
And now that you have all of these assets coming in and, you know, the Israelis coming to town to give us the the target list, it's looking it's looking pretty grim here.
I mean, it's it's looking like and Trump needs some sort of political win.
And he thinks the war is great for his image here.
And we'll get everybody talking about something other than Americans being executed in the street in Minneapolis.
Well, and there's there's one other piece that I just want to mention here.
And this is, again, not to take away anything from the, you know, the legitimate protests.
There's no doubt that the Iranian government is unpopular with a large segment of the population.
What percent that is, I don't know.
