Now, you keep talking about the oil markets totally fungible.
Do we actually have the option if we were to walk away?
Because yesterday, I think in the NATO meeting yesterday,
The NATO general secretary, who President Trump is very close to, he likes this guy a lot, and they really work together well to try to get the European nations to meet the bare minimum of their financial commitments to really building independent armed forces that can work together in what is called an alliance.
And I believe part of the bad news was he just said, look, these people don't have the political will.
But more importantly, they don't.
If they haven't invested in their armed forces where they really cut it is in their navies.
The Royal Navy is a mere shadow of itself.
The French Navy is not anything what it was.
The Italian Navy is tied up, not stopping migrants from coming from North Africa into Italy.
So they really not going to be a much help here.
Do we really have, since you keep telling me the market's fungible, is it a possibility?
Is it actually, do we have an option of not having the Navy go in and open this up to say, you know what, pox on all your houses?
We're out.
The Strait of Horeb moves is your problem.
You go fix it.
Because if you tell them it's their problem, even with Japan and the South Korean Navy, which punch way above their weights, it's just not possible for those people to keep it open over a long period of time.
They just don't have the resources and the maritime capabilities, sir.
Eric, where do people get your back here at four o'clock?
We'll do a change over today.
