Part Of The Problem
The War Hawks vs. The Podcasters

Fake news.

Part Of The Problem
The War Hawks vs. The Podcasters

He's like literally just putting it out on his shoulder and letting you know everything's fine.

Part Of The Problem
The War Hawks vs. The Podcasters

Situation's been taken care of.

Part Of The Problem
The War Hawks vs. The Podcasters

He's listening to the feelings in his bones.

Part Of The Problem
The War Hawks vs. The Podcasters

So he's really he's just operating in a different dimension that you and I can't comprehend, which is why it makes it so hard to translate it into, you know, our version of reality.

Part Of The Problem
The War Hawks vs. The Podcasters

I do think there's a little bit, uh, more to add to that.

Part Of The Problem
The War Hawks vs. The Podcasters

Cause, uh, I don't think we covered this since the last episode, but, uh,

Part Of The Problem
The War Hawks vs. The Podcasters

donald trump threatened to strike their uh power facilities within 48 hours unless they immediately reopen their hermuz and what's funny about that is that he's basically just threatening to go up the escalation ladder which is stupid if you don't actually have escalation dominance and so i ran just and turned around immediately and said if you do that we're taking out the desalination plants

and other critical infrastructure in all the neighboring countries.

Part Of The Problem
The War Hawks vs. The Podcasters

And so everyone was waiting to see if Donald Trump was actually going to go through with that threat, which was stupid.

Part Of The Problem
The War Hawks vs. The Podcasters

It's a dumb threat.

Part Of The Problem
The War Hawks vs. The Podcasters

You don't want to escalate things if you don't have to.

Part Of The Problem
The War Hawks vs. The Podcasters

And then Donald Trump turned around 48 hours later and goes, we don't have to do this strike because we're actually in negotiations.

Part Of The Problem
The War Hawks vs. The Podcasters

And so we're walking this back for five days.

Part Of The Problem
The War Hawks vs. The Podcasters

Of course, as you point...

Part Of The Problem
The War Hawks vs. The Podcasters

As you pointed out, Iran turned around and said, we're not talking to them.

Part Of The Problem
The War Hawks vs. The Podcasters

Donald Trump has yet to clarify what leader he's talking to within Iran.

Part Of The Problem
The War Hawks vs. The Podcasters

And I don't believe I believe Israel is still striking infrastructure within Iran, which does kind of make the five day pause difficult.

Part Of The Problem
The War Hawks vs. The Podcasters

Well, perfect.

Part Of The Problem
The War Hawks vs. The Podcasters

Perhaps they're actually successfully pulling off the regime change and they've got their asset over there ready to run a coup and run the government.
