“This War WILL Continue” - Iran REJECTS Ceasefire After Netanyahu WARNS Of Prolonged War
26 Mar 2026
Chapter 1: What demands does Iran have for a ceasefire?
This is one of the Iranian officials listing their demands for a ceasefire.
This is when?
This was earlier this week, I believe Monday or Tuesday. Go ahead.
Until all our damages are recovered, until all economic sanctions are lifted, and until we obtain an international legal guarantee against Iran's, against America's interference in Iran's affairs, this war will continue. And I'll explain why such a decision has been made by our nation, our leader, and our armed forces.
I will state in the interview that whether our conflict with America is just a 12-day war and a Ramadan war, or rather a 47-year saga that we must bring to an end right here and now.
OK, so that's that on what he's saying. Similar request to what I just read.

Chapter 2: How do Iran's demands reflect their position in the conflict?
OK, MBS comes out. I have the comments here where he says he fears if Trump retreats now, Saudi Arabia and the rest of the region will be left to face angry Iran. I think he told us to. Is this the interview, Rob, or?
I'm looking for the clip. I found this clip. I'm not sure if it's him, though.
Yeah, angry Iran. He told this to New York Times. Then yesterday, when the president is being interviewed, they asked the president. I don't know if you saw that clip, Rob. They're asking him, hey, I just texted it to you, Rob. I'm sorry, I texted it to myself. Reporter asks the president, is MBS encouraging you to do certain things related to Iran? And here's what the president had to say.
Go for it. What do you hear with Saudi Arabia?
encouraging you to do certain things related to Iran. Can you share?
Oh, he's a warrior. He does? Yeah, he's a warrior. He's fighting with us, by the way. Saudi Arabia has been excellent. And UAE, excellent. And I will tell you, Qatar, incredible. Saudi Arabia. What do you hear with Saudi?
Yeah, so there you have it. So he's responding the way he is. And Rob, I don't know if there was an interview with him or not. It was just like a face-to-face interview. Barry, you make a good point because when you think about this, is he putting out the 15 points to give a little bit more time because he got an update that USS Tripoli needs four more days, needs five more days?
Because I got a quote here, very weird quote, and I don't know if I like this quote, but let me read this quote to you from Netanyahu. Here's what Netanyahu just said, okay? Look what his quote is.

Chapter 3: What role does Saudi Arabia play in the current situation?
Netanyahu just said, when asked how long do you think this is going to last, he told Fox News, may take some time, but it's not going to take years. He vowed to keep striking Iran's enemies and help topple its regime. After missile attacks, he called Iran's behavior threatening the entire world. So... There's two different problems.
There's the Israel problem, there's the world problem, there's the America problem. The Israel problem is what? You just attacked these guys, guess what, Tom, with the Israel problem. They are furious with you right now. They're not happy with you, with what you have going on. And Israel has to sit there and say, dude, if we don't finish this off right now, you think they're going to let us go?
They're going to come back and take us out? Then you have a world problem. Did this even make the world a safer place? Did it make Gulf states feel better? Did it make them feel more comfortable? Are Europeans and NATO allies feeling more comfortable about this? Then the last one is what? Trump the president. How is this sitting in America? How is America reacting to this?
Is America sitting there? Because we just had a Democrat that won in Palm Beach. Is it Palm Beach, Emily? I don't know what her last name is. Emily Gregory. Emily Gregory, who just won in Palm Beach. and Democrat flips Florida State House District that includes Trump's Mar-a-Lago. I mean, that's his house. So what are they saying?
Tom, you made a good point earlier that we've talked about this for the last four or five years. If there's one thing we've been consistent about, don't worry about Democrats and Republicans. Who runs America is independents.

Chapter 4: How is the U.S. strategy affected by the ongoing conflict?
That's who runs American elections. If independents are kind of going like this, It's like, hey, we're not fully with this. Your base may be with you. This may be with you. But us independents, we're kind of leaning this way. Do you see that pattern kind of happening, Tom?
Yeah, this is a flip of a district. This was a Republican. This was a GOP district. And now Gregory has won it, the special election. And so now you look at it and say, okay, what does this say?
By a couple hundred votes, by the way. And the Boca guy won by like 13, 14 votes.
And then under audit, it went down to three votes and even one vote in Boca. So, yeah, that was that was debated back and forth right on the edge of a knife. So what this says is that the independents in Florida are are basically not saying, hey, overnight I became liberal. But what they're saying is I don't like what's going on and this is the way I'm leaning.
And it doesn't take much to move that, especially in the in the lavender districts. Miami is. Broward County is blue. Miami is blue, but lighter blue than it's been. And it goes lavender certain times. I'm sorry, I just wanted to say the point that Pat made is very true, is that the America problem has this issue.
By the way, there's just a canary in the coal mine for the midterm elections as well. And that's the bigger issue that has to be contemplated. So the public opinion right now does not favor what's going on for the most part. Maybe they're looking at it short term. Maybe they're feeling what's going on with gasoline prices, and they just don't have a distaste for it.
I don't know if they're thinking about the bigger picture. Like you had mentioned, this is an opportunity for a bigger picture here, but it has to be balanced as far as what are you willing to sacrifice for. It's a really tough situation to be in. There's not really a narrative either. Normally you have a narrative behind a war of like, oh, we have to do this because of this reason, like 9-11.
It was revenge. Sometimes there's an imminent threat, but they don't really have a narrative to capture that tolerance. So I think that's part of it too. Got it. Rob, what is this? This is the president yesterday in the Oval Office. He talks about receiving a gift from Iran, and it shows that the United States is now dealing with the right people in the regime. Let's hear it. Make a deal.
They did something yesterday that was amazing, actually. They gave us a present and the present arrived today. It was a very big present worth a tremendous amount of money. And I'm not going to tell you what that present is, but it was a very significant prize. And they gave it to us and they said they were going to give it. So that meant one thing to me would deal with the right people.

Chapter 5: What are Netanyahu's predictions for the duration of the war?
And the present, the gift they made to us, was very significant. And they said they were going to do it, and it happened. and they're the only ones that could have done it. Jennifer?
So much fog of war right now. You're hearing everything to sit there and say, what is really going on? What is really being said? Is politics being played? Who's he talking to? Is it games? Is it not games? Or is the other side sitting there saying, what the hell is he talking about? We didn't give you anything. There's so much that's going on right now.
But Pat, you think about it, wouldn't that be like the perfect scenario for the US if the regime in kind of like safe face is there, but those who are in charge of the regime are not as radical. I don't know if that's possible.
Oh, no way. No, no, no. Okay, so let me ask you. How long, if you spent 10 years with Lucky Luciano, How long do you need to spend every second of the day with Lucky to become like Lucky? How long? What do you think the timeline is? How long do you need to spend with the cartel from Mexico? Give me one of the heavyweights cartels of Mexico. Name any one of them. El Chapo.
Chapter 6: How does this conflict impact regional stability?
How long do I need to spend with El Chapo to become El Chapo? How long do I need to spend with the Mansons? How long do I need to spend with these guys to become them? What do you think that timeline is? Not long. What do you think that's – honestly, it's a very good question because how long do you think that is? Three months, six months, 12 months, two years, three years? Not long.
No, not long at all. We have a case study. What would you say?
What would you say it is?
I think a thousand hours. You think it's a thousand hours? To be just like them? I think it's – you know – If you're going into it and you're manipulatable, you know, three weeks. I mean, we saw what happened in history when Patty Hearst was kidnapped.
And then she basically went from, they say psychologically, she went from Stockholm Syndrome, where you kind of start to lean with the feelings of your captors, to actually participating with the Symbionese Liberation Army in a bank hit.
How long did that take? F. Lee Bailey was her lawyer, by the way.
Right. She was only 19 years old. She was very impressionable. It was only like 30 days.
Okay. So here's the question. How many people have spent 1,000-plus hours with the current regime, Khamenei, Pezeshkian, any of those guys, to be true believers? How many?
They all have. A couple hundred. They all have. The point I'm making is if the president is saying we're talking to the right people, Is there some sort of a shift or a tone change? I have no idea. I don't know who he's talking to. Or is he softening us up that the regime's not going to change?

Chapter 7: What is the significance of U.S. public opinion on the war?
I think, look, here's what the debate was. The first debate was, should we or should we not? So then the president says, Iranian people, we have your back. Then Iranian people are becoming bolder to go out there. So now the president's position is what? We have your back. That's a statement being made from the most powerful person in the world. And I'm warning you guys, don't hang anybody.
Don't execute. Right. But they kept doing it. Right. And they kept and they're turning off the Internet. And we saw the numbers that came up. Thirty one thousand. Thirty three thousand. Seventy thousand. And then they came back and said, no, no. We didn't kill 30,000 of our people. We only killed 3,117 of our own people.
Rob, can you find that clip that where, that's the clip I was trying to find with Adagachi, where he said, we didn't kill 31,000 people. That's incorrect. We killed only 3,117 of our own people. As if like he's trying to say, look, we're nice people. So then from there, Everyone's now debating. Don't do it, do it. Do it, don't do it. Do it, don't do it. We're not in, we're out.
And then who makes the decision? The president. Now we're in. Why are we going in? Regime collapse, regime change. So now at the end, it's a nuclear. I don't know if I buy the fact that, so if now it ends and you claim the war is done, so the position for me would become like this. If you're talking to Bibi, hey, listen, here's what we're doing. What's that? We're disconnecting from here.
