That's I-N-C-O-G-N-I.com slash impact and use code impact.

Thanks for sticking around.

Let's get right back into the action.

Okay, so we're certainly gonna get to see how it plays out, but if I just try to map your mental model of how this is going, Israel's using the destabilized nature of the region right now, precisely because they have the most pro-Israeli US government in a long time.

They are gobbling up territory right now in Lebanon and Syria, calling it a security buffer, but obviously territorial acquisition by any other name is still territory acquisition.

Do you...

When I think about them having to prosecute those regions, Lebanon would have to have a reason not to attack.

And that could just be that they think they'll lose.

It could be that they think that the Americans will get involved.

Same with Syria.

Do you have a sense of what the calculation is coming out of Lebanon or Syria around this issue?

But it's a really fast because this, I think, is bringing into sharp.

uh, contrast, maybe the different worldviews that you and I have.

And so we can both make a prediction because I think the way you see things makes one prediction.

The way I see things makes another, uh, you've been very clear that, you know, that this is complicated.

And so there's many forces pulling.

So you may, um, effectively hedge at this moment.

I'm not going to hedge partly because I just want to test my own thesis.

So because I believe that Donald Trump is, I'm trying to get on Mount Rushmore, I know that I do it by growing, this is an economic question purely, I'm thinking about China and financial growth for America, period, full stop.

That is my mental map.
