You know, I did that for 20 plus years in the military and in the agency and kind of see where that got us, right?

When we knew better, see where that got us.

And so, like I said...

You know, 20 plus years ago, I made a promise to myself if I ever had the ability to speak out and try to get us on a better path, I would do so.

If my late wife hadn't gotten killed, if I hadn't been through the experiences I had been through, I don't think I'd have the clarity and the courage to do what I'm doing now.

So I am sympathetic to people who are inside who are still like, hey, I'm just a guy.

I'm not that important.

I'm trying to do my job.

I'll do what I'm told.

However, the people who came in with President Trump in key leadership positions that are a part of this movement and leading this movement, I think they've got to reflect on what we ran on because this is not what we ran on.

and they have to live with it.

And so they can either make a decision to try and influence the situation from inside, but once they realize they can't influence that situation inside, then they have a choice to make.

Do they stay and be complicit with it, or do they leave and try and get us back on the right path?

if we don't deal with the Israelis, then this thing will just keep going.

There might be fits and starts, like maybe this five-day ceasefire will work.

I'm a little skeptical, I'm hopeful.

But unless we restrain the Israelis and tell them like, you're done,

And if you continue to attack and you continue to do things without telling us and asking us, without asking us first, we're paying for it, you're going to ask us first.

Then we are going to negate our other part of the deal.

And our part of the deal says that we defend Israel.
