Now that's me reaching into the future.
I have not heard anybody say that's what they're going to do.
But it's like, you can see how if China, because China's already pulled back on exporting their oil.
So now they're saying, okay, hold on, we're refining.
We're gonna keep it all here.
We're gonna make sure that we deal with domestic production.
China has raised their rates, and so they're gonna say, okay, there's a limit to how much we're willing to raise our rates before we go in and start at least making sure that our ships are able to get through.
What that ends up looking like is an unknown question, but it will make them far more vocal and loud about what their position is.
I would be very surprised if they came in kinetically, but they've already sent
big ships to give intel.
So they're certainly not opposed to helping you run in that way.
Yeah, this is one of the things that people that are trying to map out what's going to happen have got to take into consideration.
The decentralized military that Iran is running is so decentralized that it runs the risk of becoming essentially a well-armed headless chicken that can't be stopped from running around and spraying blood on everything.
And that idea that it can't be stopped is what people have to think about.
So if Trump is gonna have an exit from this war, there has to be somebody that you can talk to, because if you stop and they don't, then you've gotten nowhere.
If we say, okay, cool, ceasefire, but then they keep bombing the Strait of Hormuz,
you've gained nothing.
Now, in 2007, a general named Mohammad Ali Jafari took over Iran's Revolutionary Guard and he was part of the generation that watched the U.S.
topple Saddam Hussein's entire military in just three weeks and
Hussein Saddam ended up like hiding in a hole in a ground.
