What is this stuff?
It's it sounds it sounds irrational if you think about it, Megan.
Yeah, I think they should be looking for an exit path.
Today, Bloomberg reported that Doha, the Qataris and the Emiratis are looking to help Trump find an off-ramp out of this.
I actually think the Iranians will continue to go because in Iranian discourse...
Now, the belief of the regime is that that was the mistake they made at the end of the 12-day war, where they believed they had the missile advantage over Israel, and they accepted a ceasefire.
And therefore, Israel got emboldened to do its own attack and, of course, to draw the U.S.
into a second operation against Iran.
So the Iranians may calculate that they're going to just fire everything they have or much of what they have of these different types of missiles, and they're now using the more advanced ones.
even as interceptors u.s and israeli interceptors are becoming depleted they're going to fire everything they have so that um you know they basically to to try to ensure that there's not a future um attack like this again so again it has to be uh hopefully an exit path may you know uh
And it raises the question of would Israel keep going if the U.S.
pulls out?
I don't think so.
I think so much of the Israelis freedom of action depends on their sense that the Americans will back them.
So, look, if I were to be asked what the end game of this war is, I think it will be a kind of a muddle where.
we definitely bruise the Iranians and the Iranians will also be able to claim that they definitely held their own.
And everyone claims a quote unquote victory.
I hope, I really pray that what Secretary Hegseth and President Trump said about putting troops on the ground potentially, quote unquote, if necessary, does not pan out.
By the way, to really do a regime change, that's what it would be required is to put troops on the ground to kind of clean
secure the country military experts say well that's just a that's just a crazy thing to do not not just uh you know in terms of the for the strategic and military reasons we've been discussing so far but just politically speaking i mean is the republican party's politically suicidal to do something like that already that reuters ipsos poll found that only one in four americans supports uh this this operation that is only going to get worse with boots on the ground
