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

Good enough to start a war, again, as I quoted from earlier.

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

Yeah.

He said on TV last week, well, America has to take out Fordo now because now they're more likely to break out towards a nuke.

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

I think that's exactly right.

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

So there still is, or there's strong reason to be skeptical, including Israeli and American officials told the New York Times that they thought that the damage was quite incomplete.

All the uranium mines and all the aluminum smelters so that they can't make any more centrifuges.

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

They know how to make centrifuges.

So at this point, this is why government doesn't work.

They make matters worse and create more work for themselves and make things worse and worse and worse.

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

We can make the same criticism about Russia's invasion of Ukraine, making matters worse for themselves and causing them to have to escalate even further.

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

Now America's in the situation where the danger that Iran will now break out to a nuke is so heightened that now we're talking about, well, maybe we'll have to do a full regime change.

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

And I appreciate you, Mark, saying that we should not kill the Ayatollah.

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

But Benjamin Netanyahu says we should.

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

He said just the other day that if we get rid of the Ayatollah, that will solve all the problems.

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

which is just crazy to think that.

They have Israeli officials have been tweeting out pictures of them palling around with the son of the Shah, talking about reinstalling his royal majesty's monarchy.

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

sock puppet dictatorship.

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

That's taking back Iran for the people of Iran, giving them over to a bunch of foreign-backed exiles.

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

Was that what Trump meant when he gave that speech in Qatar saying, we don't believe in neoconservatism and spreading democracy anymore?

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

He's just setting up because we're going to try to reinstall a monarch?
