We certainly can't depend on the Chinese.

So there could be a situation where we just continue cranking up the pressure where they just say, I'm going to cut a deal.

I'm going to fly to Moscow and get this over with.

Well, Russia has – they still would have some tools available in Europe where like, OK, they could start ripping apart some of these –

These energy supplies, these sorts of things, they could really take the gloves off in Ukraine if they really wanted to.

And that would cause some problems for America that would force our hand again.

So it's like Russia does have options.

And then they could also directly support Iran.

But I don't know if Iran should depend on that.

Well, I mean, we saw where they literally just turned Caracas off.

Exactly.

So it's like they have these.

But to this, like with this post and then some of the rumors that I think all of us are hearing coming out of the Beltway, something we have to keep in mind here is in the lead up to the Venezuela operation and then the actual Venezuela operation itself, there was zero rumors.

It was airtight.

It just happened and everyone was surprised.

Even people at the top level of military intel were shocked that it happened.

Except Pali Market.

Sure.

But it's like that was because of like the fleet movements, which are impossible to hide.

But it's like with this, all of a sudden there's rumors everywhere.
