And so they know, the Ayatollah knows.
He's in a very difficult position.
And look at what he did.
When they assassinated Soleimani, he sent essentially a symbolic strike at an empty corner of an American base in Iraq.
It did cause some concussions and head trauma, but he deliberately did that to not cause casualties.
And then Trump let him have the last word.
And then also when they shot down the drone, which I think Trump was suspicious that the Pentagon had flown that into Iranian airspace.
And they demanded strikes.
And Trump said, no, it's just a drone.
How many Iranians will die at the base you want me to hit?
No, I don't want to kill them.
I don't want to do it.
And again, he let the Ayatollah get the last word.
Same thing happened again.
with yesterday's strikes.
Iran hit America's, our central command headquarters.
You did air base in Qatar and also an American base, I think, in Baghdad and I'm not sure about in Iraqi Kurdistan.
Zero casualties so far?
Zero casualties so far.
So what is going on there essentially is he's got to do something.
