Surrender.

Now, I've said from the beginning, there is some possibility here that at some point you get a hint, you get some guys within this government who effectively stage a coup and we end up with the Venezuelan solution.

And they say we're not riding this thing all the way to the ground.

And that would be, in my view, a happy ending.

But as of now, they're going to dig in and they're going to take this thing into an unconventional

realm and they are going to prolong this conflict and are they going to be hammered mercilessly by the united states military without question i mean anybody who bet on the iranians to stand up to the u.s military uh was delusional they've been flattened and they're going to continue to get flattened but in in their world view they will just dig in and this will become

Low-cost drones and proxy forces and terrorist attacks abroad and attacks on desalinization plants and oil refineries and sort of let's all go to hell together kind of mindset.

Look, I think what they were trying to do was divide us from our allies and encourage the Gulf states in particular to part company with us and

that didn't work.

And so now they've gone, I mean, they, they just hit a desalinization plant in Bahrain.

They've hit a number of other targets.

So they, they, they gave that a whirl and it didn't work.

So now they're going to, they're going to intensify what they do against the Gulf States to the extent they can.

Many of them are military parents, as you know.

But it's always a very sad thing.

I don't think there's any way on earth that they are considering unconditional surrender.

Surrender.

Now, I've said from the beginning, there is some possibility here that at some point you get a hint, you get some guys within this government who effectively stage a coup and we end up with the Venezuelan solution.

And they say we're not riding this thing all the way to the ground.
