No, wait a second.

#473 – Iran War Debate: Nuclear Weapons, Trump, Peace, Power & the Middle East

The fact is, you're sitting here saying that, oh, I trust them all so much.

Well, what do you think, Lex, what do you think Ronald Reagan meant by trust but verify?

Lex Fridman Podcast
#473 – Iran War Debate: Nuclear Weapons, Trump, Peace, Power & the Middle East

He meant don't trust, but be polite, right?

Lex Fridman Podcast
#473 – Iran War Debate: Nuclear Weapons, Trump, Peace, Power & the Middle East

That's what he meant.

Verify means we know with sensors and cameras and inspections what's going on.

Lex Fridman Podcast

No one can find a quote that I said here about how we can trust the Ayatollah because he promised this or that or the other thing.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#473 – Iran War Debate: Nuclear Weapons, Trump, Peace, Power & the Middle East

I didn't say that.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#473 – Iran War Debate: Nuclear Weapons, Trump, Peace, Power & the Middle East

What I'm talking about is the process.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#473 – Iran War Debate: Nuclear Weapons, Trump, Peace, Power & the Middle East

They sign agreements, and then we have inspectors to verify their claims.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#473 – Iran War Debate: Nuclear Weapons, Trump, Peace, Power & the Middle East

And as anyone can search at IAEA.org, they have continued to verify the non-diversion of nuclear material in Iran to any military or other special purpose.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#473 – Iran War Debate: Nuclear Weapons, Trump, Peace, Power & the Middle East

We know the facilities are there.

Lex Fridman Podcast

And by the way, you keep saying that I just say lies, lies, lies.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#473 – Iran War Debate: Nuclear Weapons, Trump, Peace, Power & the Middle East

But I have explained exactly what I meant.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#473 – Iran War Debate: Nuclear Weapons, Trump, Peace, Power & the Middle East

I've cited my sources and I haven't just sat here and say, oh, that's a lie because I don't like it.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#473 – Iran War Debate: Nuclear Weapons, Trump, Peace, Power & the Middle East

I sat here and explained to you exactly how I know who was building those EFP bombs in Iraq.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#473 – Iran War Debate: Nuclear Weapons, Trump, Peace, Power & the Middle East

Exactly how I know what the IAEA said about the state of inspections here or what Robert Kelly told the Christian Science Monitor about Parchin and the rest and on and on and on.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#473 – Iran War Debate: Nuclear Weapons, Trump, Peace, Power & the Middle East

You know, I sit here like I'm just saying, well, that's not true because I don't like it.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#473 – Iran War Debate: Nuclear Weapons, Trump, Peace, Power & the Middle East

When in fact, I'm explaining exactly why your claims are not true, which they're not.
