00:02:15.000When you look at the crowds today, you have maybe 5,000, 6,000 people here.
00:02:34.420On the streets yesterday, a million people, a million Iranians in the street for the Ayatollah Khomeini.
00:02:39.620Does that not give you concern? Does that not make you afraid?
00:02:42.160Because they are afraid. Yeah, that's right. And most of the people don't say anything because they are afraid. They are in silence, you know, they don't say anything.
00:02:53.160Is this the silent majority of Iran out here now?0.98
00:37:26.860But from what you've seen and what you know of this regime, do you think that the U.S. should make a deal with Iran right now?0.83
00:37:33.560I don't know if you can ever, as I said, there's no way you can make a deal with a regime that is inherently incapable of saying that we are willing to give up everything that is the reason we still exist and think that they will be able to change their behavior.0.84
00:37:48.700As a matter of fact, the biggest flaw in the rationale in whatever the foreign policy of
00:37:55.040so many Western countries have been, including the U.S. governments for years, has been a
00:40:57.780It makes you think that there are some elements that are more manageable and more reasonable that can be dealt with.
00:41:04.440The problem is that such a thing doesn't truly exist.
00:41:07.860They're just people that ultimately are there to preserve the system.
00:41:12.020And yes, the regime has been weakened, but it's the radical elements that are the most elements in charge.
00:41:18.740And if there are any so-called moderates, which I don't believe there are, they really don't have a big role to play.
00:41:24.060So therefore, you're facing now a system that has become a de facto paramilitary dictatorship.
00:41:32.240It's the IRGC that controls ultimately everything.
00:41:35.180So do you want to see U.S. boots on the ground at this point?0.79
00:41:39.380I think that the best way to articulate this is to say that, and that's something that we have said, that the boots on the ground in Iran are the Iranian people themselves.0.80
00:41:48.220We don't need to have foreign troops doing the job for us.
00:41:51.000But in order for people to be emboldened and...
00:41:55.040So this is what King of Zapathevi has been saying for a very long time,
00:42:00.960that you don't need boots on the ground because the Iranian people are the boots on the ground.
00:42:06.320And this is in line with what Mark Levin has been saying as well.
00:42:11.260And also Senator Lindsey Graham, Secretary of State Marco Rubio,
00:42:16.760and even Senator Ted Cruz have all been saying this as well.
00:42:21.000which shows that they must be in talking to each other yeah on this topic yeah exactly i mean it's
00:42:31.560i mean it's up this and also um well prince reza palavi hasn't been talking about this yet
00:42:39.640and i know why but also arming the iranian people is also becoming a hotter and hotter topic
00:42:46.680right? So you can see that the direction that everything is moving. I think we're now moving
00:42:52.280into more empowering the Iranian people to be successful with their upcoming uprising, right?
00:48:29.240Okay. That is, yeah, exactly. That is sick and pathetic. You guys are right in the chat.
00:48:35.660Imagine the circumstances during the Second World War. Imagine you were a French person
00:48:41.660who was living under the occupation of a Nazi regime. And when the Allies disembarked on the
00:48:50.060British of Normandy, that was a campaign for liberation of a country that would otherwise0.69
00:48:54.400have to face Hitler and his regime. In this case, we are dealing with a regime that has from the0.95
00:49:00.640very beginning taken our compatriots as their first hostages and have kept them behind bars.
00:49:06.880This intervention is a liberation for us, so it's a welcome act that will help us finally get rid1.00
00:49:12.800of this regime, which is the final ask of the Iranian people. They have had it with this regime,1.00
00:49:17.920they no longer want it, this regime is totally illegitimate, it's just trying to use coercion
00:49:23.120and fear to maintain himself in power and try to buy time and ride the storm so there's no longer
00:49:30.160a bb netanyahu in jerusalem or a donald trump in the white house that could really put pressure on
00:49:35.200this regime that's why tactically they're just trying to buy time and that has always been their
00:49:40.160modus operandi in all these years the strikes unfortunately have not exclusively hit uh the
00:49:46.320regime and the regime's infrastructure there's been reporting that hundreds of civilians including
00:49:51.200200 school children were killed in a single strike. President Trump has also threatened
00:49:55.520to destroy Iran's civilian infrastructure and, quote, wipe out Iran's civilization if the Iranian
00:50:01.200government didn't make a deal. Do you think that kind of rhetoric is appropriate, even as a
00:50:06.240negotiating tactic? No, it's not, because, again, it's part of sending the missed signal. Are you
00:50:11.840here to liberate us or further hurt us? What hurts our nation is its, of course, civilian infrastructure.1.00
00:50:18.240what helps us is when you hit the regime and its infrastructure i'm trying to separate the two
00:50:23.200the two from each other and yes nobody likes to see uh victims but then again
00:50:31.360hey don't interrupt don't interrupt let the answer oh my god like what that's so rude
00:50:40.400well that's what i'm trying to address yeah that's what he's trying to address okay this0.99
00:50:44.400lady is getting so you get your answer when he if you just let him finish what the hell0.99
00:50:49.760look uh when when the regime adapts in tactics to use people as as human shields as they would
00:50:55.680hide many aspects of also like have the united states and israel israel done enough to separate
00:51:02.080the israel the iranian people and the islamic republic yeah yeah more like have you seen the
00:51:10.160The ratio of civilians to the number of terrorists, Islamic Republic terrorists being killed, armed combatants to civilian population, that ratio, the civilian to armed combatant is extremely low, especially compared to any warfare in urban areas.
00:51:31.920So yeah, that means that they have put, they have gone out of their way to separate the0.89
00:51:38.640Iranian people and the Islamic Republic.0.85
00:51:40.980And you see that not just in their words, but also in their action.
00:51:44.920...their anti-riot forces or whatever you want to call it in public areas, including
00:51:52.200schools and hospitals, a little bit a la what Hamas has been doing in Gaza.
00:51:58.420also also the whole attacks on irgc bases and basiji bases and checkpoints was for the sake
00:52:06.580of the iranian people's uprising so the entire strategy has been to empower the iranian people
00:52:11.700against islamic republic obviously sometimes it's very very difficult to have precision targeting
00:52:18.100without having every now and then uh these instances it's very sad but it's war it's
00:52:23.780conflict. The sooner we put an end to this regime, the sooner we can in fact preserve
00:52:30.740more innocent lives from being destroyed in my country. I think it's important for the world to
00:52:36.340consider that to us Iranians, when you look at what's happening, it's an opportunity for us to
00:52:42.100get rid of this regime once and for all. And yes, we do need some outside help. And yes,
00:52:47.060help did arrive. And the campaign that was led both by the Israelis and the Americans,
00:52:51.300but to that extent successful to at least hurt the regime and and diminish its capability to
00:52:57.220counteract about the people is it enough to solve the problem no and i think that's where we are
00:53:02.260saying that rather than thinking that this time you can come to terms with this regime you might
00:53:06.900as well get rid of it once and for all and liberate yourselves from all the threats that it represents
00:53:11.300to you but also at the same time help us regain our freedom you know yeah guys when when when
00:53:17.140the Americans were liberating France from Nazi Germany, some French people died. Unfortunately,
00:53:23.940they died. Some innocent French people died under, you know, American military operations. This is
00:53:29.380like, this is, this puts Princes of Pahlavi in a very difficult position because that's just
00:53:37.380the reality. But saying it makes it, people could clip that and make it seem like he just doesn't
00:53:43.620care about Iranian people's lives. But that is a reality. It's unavoidable. The evil that is0.99
00:53:51.300the Islamic Republic by far is so much more costly to the Iranian people than the collateral damage1.00
00:53:59.300during these military operations. At this point, President Trump has sort of backed away from the
00:54:05.620idea of regime change. But I had Leon Panetta, US Defense Secretary under President Obama,
00:54:12.660on the conversation last week, he told me that he doesn't think this war can end without
00:54:17.140regime change. And while the regime has been weakened by the death of Ayatollah Khamenei
00:54:23.140and other IRGC leaders, it is still in place. I mean, do you think that regime change
00:54:28.420is a real possibility at this point, given how much they've shown they can survive?
00:54:32.500And of course it is a possibility, but more than a possibility, it is a necessity. That's
00:54:38.180what we need to really stress here. And yes, in this town, regime change has gotten a bad name.
00:54:44.100Why? Because, of course, it was poorly implemented elsewhere. Example, Iraq and Saddam Hussein's
00:54:49.620debatification. This is certainly not the scenario that we are professing. Just because it was
00:54:54.660poorly handled elsewhere doesn't make the concept wrong. It is still a necessary step to be taken.
00:55:00.500And contrary to what we saw recently in the Middle East, what we are calling for is a smooth
00:55:06.420and stable transition beyond the regime to an ultimate secular democratic outcome.
00:55:12.500For that we have a plan, we have a strategy. I have developed this on a five-prong basis.
00:55:18.500It continues to be an element of maximum pressure on the regime, maximum support for the Iranian
00:55:24.020people, maximum defections within Iran, and of course part of it is the Iran Prosperity Project
00:55:31.140that addresses exactly what happens day one after the regime collapses. So we're not faced
00:55:36.020with chaos. There's no vacuum to worry about. It can be filled. I'm not getting any details here
00:55:41.220because it's quite comprehensive. But basically, that means that there shouldn't be the concern of,
00:55:47.380well, can the situation get worse? Are we going to face a chaotic situation? No, but with that,
00:55:53.780we need to assure whoever is looking at this, including here in the US, what it would mean
00:55:59.060to have regime change in Iran, how it can happen, what are the mechanics for it?
00:56:03.140yeah i want to get a little bit more into the mechanics because you know you were a big
00:56:07.780supporter of the widespread anti-government protests that led uh in part to this moment
00:56:13.460in iran at one point uh you told politico uh that more than 50 000 of more than 50 000 members of
00:56:21.300iran security forces and government had contacted you to defect from the regime
00:56:25.940where are those 50 000 it doesn't seem like there's a real internal opposition at this
00:56:30.420well therefore the time of the uprising that's why why would they come out now and be like hey
00:56:36.980like we're we're part of the defected forces hey we're here like why would you say that in
00:56:42.660an authoritarian dictatorship where that would actually get you murdered yeah come kill us before0.92
00:56:47.940we could be useful what the hell you know what it is it's it's that people um and i guess you know0.93
00:56:56.740through no fault of their own i guess because um a lot of people don't have experience living under
00:57:03.860an authoritarian dictatorship they just can't they like they have difficulty wrapping their
00:57:11.540heads around the fact that there actually exists a place where um you can be killed just for
00:57:21.300saying that you don't agree with the government with the with those in power right it's very
00:57:25.700difficult for a lot of people to grasp that fact, right? Like unless you've lived it or experienced
00:57:34.440it, it just seems unimaginable. So she's asking a lot of these questions coming from a place where
00:57:46.120she's assuming that Iran is like a normal country and not a brutal totalitarian dictatorship where
00:57:53.340you have zero um civil rights zero human rights and you can be um killed at any moment for any
00:58:04.140reason or even for no reason whatsoever and nothing will be done yeah yeah they don't
00:58:11.740have the frame of mind to be able to think about this properly you're so right exactly
00:58:16.860Well, of course, I think that's the opposition inside Iran is quite diverse and quite united.
00:58:25.060And in fact, when a call to action on January 8th and that came in all 31 provinces of Iran,
00:58:32.460people rose and came to the streets chanting the same slogans and as unified as ever.
00:58:37.780But where are those regime defectors that you talked about?
00:58:40.080Well, obviously, these are people are waiting for the opportunity to peel away.
00:58:43.900It goes back to my previous point when I said if you're sending mixed signals, okay, let
00:59:08.900Some of them who don't have their bloods on their hands want to survive regime change.
00:59:12.400that's in fact part of our calculation, giving them amnesty, giving them the possibility to
00:59:16.800survive regime change, so they don't have a fear of what will happen to us next, so
00:59:21.360looking at them as a solution as opposed to a problem to face. But then they would be hesitating
00:59:26.880if one time they say, well, what if we expose ourselves? What if we were to commit to join
00:59:31.760with the opposition? If it's a half-baked solution, if we are thinking that, hold on a second,
00:59:37.440they're trying to cut the deal with this regime or they might be the survival of this regime
00:59:42.640because now diplomacy has led to sort of a temporary ceasefire or whatever it is they
00:59:47.760will hesitate i'm sure anybody with a simple rational mind will understand the reason why
00:59:54.160they will not be fully committed not because they don't want to but because they still don't know if
00:59:59.040they have a firm ground on the other end wow this is so important that means guys that means that
01:00:05.280there's a lot of uh defect you know people who want to defect but because of the negotiations
01:00:12.240right now they don't they're not sure if this is for if the toppling um if they're going to
01:00:18.240the toppling of the regime is happening or if the or if this is actually something that is going to
01:00:24.480go through or not so that means guys that means that once we get closer to the fall of the regime
01:00:30.800becoming close to certain, we're going to see mass defections just astronomically rising.
01:00:37.360The main, Princesa Pallavi is confirming that the main thing is, the main thing that is
01:00:42.360making many of the people within the Islamic Republic hesitant is the uncertainty. It's not
01:00:47.980a lack of wanting to defect, it's them being hesitant because they don't know if this is
01:00:54.900for sure or not interesting but if the message is by the way his example when he said high ranking
01:01:04.040official within the artash and then also maybe his counterpart within rgc to mean suggest that
01:01:10.780he is in touch his team is in touch with high ranking officials within within the artash not
01:01:16.780all of them but at least some of them you know what this is going to do armin this is going going
01:01:21.640to make high ranking officials in the artis and irgc look at each other and point fingers and go
01:01:28.840which one of you is it who is it and goldie goldie also one reason that all the artist leaders
01:01:40.760haven't been targeted is because even if two of them are the people who are spies
01:01:47.240by attacking the rest of them you show which one of them are there which one of them are with us
01:01:53.320so you should basically not touch all of them so that you can't uh so that they can't basically
01:01:58.520figure it out and exactly and 100 i agree but then also now with this statement when you look
01:02:06.840at the boom boom bingo sheets um people are going to like you know people are going to look at that
01:02:14.520and be like okay so like which one of these people is like speaking about right so so the
01:02:23.720the people who are left alive right they're all going to be looking at one another and they're
01:02:29.320going to be like okay like who who is it which one of you is it right yes so and we know we know
01:02:36.440he's we know it's gone but do we yeah i'm just kidding it's our boy of course it is oh my gosh
01:02:45.480but uh but yeah you make a good point about the about the artist right so um if all of them were
01:02:52.440eliminated let's say except for the one or two that have defected it would make it easier to to
01:02:57.560point them out so yes interesting stuff and this kind of armin so what you said your explanation
01:03:04.840your theory that lines up with what president trump said a while ago recently where he spoke
01:03:12.120about how they purposely haven't targeted the artish because there may be some people who are
01:03:19.340more moderate within the artish and that lines up with what king is now saying as well wow yeah
01:03:27.660actually you're right you're right yeah that was just yesterday you're right that president trump
01:03:33.020said that okay here that this time we're taking the regime down the people of iran will stand
01:03:39.340you can now join with the people you cannot say so goldie some people well how would you respond
01:03:45.340to this because some people will listen to what prince reza pahlavi is saying and they feel a
01:03:52.140certain level of frustration with america's position on this do you how would you respond to
01:03:59.100that like he seemed like some people will perceive that he's upset that there's even any negotiations
01:04:07.740happening by the americans with the islamic republic um i mean i think ultimately
01:04:18.220we have to remember that president trump is america first and will always act in the best
01:04:24.300interests of america uh prime minister netanyahu is israel first and will always um uh you know
01:04:31.820act in the best interests of israel and kings of hallevi is iran first and will always act in the
01:04:38.380best interests of iran and iranians of course um in this situation um where we are right now
01:04:48.300is that politically, the interests of Iran, and by Iran, I mean the Iranian people and
01:04:55.980King Reza Pahlavi, the interests of the United States and the interests of Israel have all
01:05:01.740aligned. They've aligned on certain things and they're the most important things.
01:05:11.660If there is any frustration on coming from King Reza Pahlavi,0.99
01:05:17.340The frustration is based on the fact that the Islamic regime is murdering innocent, unarmed Iranians every day.0.96
01:05:25.160And so this frustration comes from a place of wanting to protect as many people and as many lives as possible.0.88
01:05:35.560So while I do think everything lines up, if there is some frustration, I believe that's where it's coming from.0.97
01:05:44.380It's coming from sort of the humanitarian aspect or angle of it, because King Reza Pahlavi wants to see the Islamic regime face justice for their crimes against humanity.0.88
01:05:58.320I believe that some of the frustration as well is not necessarily because of the way that the United States is acting.0.90
01:06:04.380I believe a lot of the frustration is also from European countries that have decided to take the side of the Islamic regime.
01:06:14.300And those European countries are actively working against the United States and Israel, making the job that much more difficult for the United States and Israel.
01:06:25.460So I think that's where the major source of frustration is coming from.
01:06:30.360And, you know, that goes back again to that video message he put out to the European leaders and European journalists, because they were focusing more on, you know, either the past or they were focusing more on the United States of Israel.
01:06:48.200But they were not focusing at all on the Iranian people or what the Iranian people have been going through under the hands of the Islamic regime.
01:06:56.300and you know we even see that today like um emmanuel macron is like oh you know like i'm
01:07:01.340meeting with you know whatever like you you were like we're still seeing um european leaders meet
01:07:08.300with and try to uh you know appease the islamic regime and you know they're calling for an end to
01:07:15.100hostilities and you know diplomatic solution right so i think that's where most of the um
01:07:22.140frustration is coming from it's coming from you know the obstructionist uh european countries
01:07:28.540oh no and not and not with america not with america negotiating with the islamic republic
01:07:33.900not that much there right well i mean i think we have to keep in mind
01:07:39.580the negotiation is not for the islamic regime to survive the negotiation is unconditional surrender
01:07:46.780or boom and again i have a feeling the reason that these negotiations are happening
01:07:55.980is because there are other things happening behind the scenes and i believe that it's because um
01:08:05.180president trump is working to make sure that iranians are um being armed and being trained
01:08:12.860okay okay fantastic thank you god i was these are the things i wonder and i you clarifying it is
01:08:21.460really really helpful yeah i've actually made a i made a youtube video about this this exact thing
01:08:26.580um which i'll be like uploading later today once i'm done editing it so oh amazing thank you for
01:08:32.660that okay all right let's switch this part the effect and not having to worry about the regimes
01:08:38.880retaliating against you, that creates the opportunity. Now we have cultivated these assets
01:08:44.480within Iran who have contacted us. Obviously, we have to make sure that their identity is protected
01:08:50.320because if they're exposed prematurely, the regime will obviously eliminate them. So it's a very
01:08:56.080delicate process that we're talking about. And that is not just limited to the military and
01:09:01.840paramilitary infrastructure, that also includes the civil bureaucracy. We're thinking that the
01:09:06.480The majority of the people currently functioning in the system should be part of the elements
01:09:11.880that post-regime collapse will continue to maintain the functioning of the state.
01:09:16.300So during that time, we can have the transitional government prepare the grounds for what will
01:10:40.240Secretary of State when he was a senator who really understands what's at stake very well.
01:10:44.020So I'm sure there are many people within the President Trump's administration who understand or have a better understanding of what it is that we are suggesting.
01:10:53.140The focus right now has been, of course, what do we do in terms of this negotiation?
01:11:00.280It doesn't look like the message back from Tehran is positive, at least based on what we hear is the response from the White House.
01:11:09.020But again, having said that, how long is this process going to be delayed?
01:11:37.700That's my whole point today is to make sure that this administration,
01:11:42.220whoever is listening to us, understand that you cannot have it both ways.
01:11:45.700You cannot say, people, we'll keep you on ice and we'll tell you when we're ready.
01:11:51.640In the meantime, we are attempting to figure something else.
01:11:54.480This is a very hard way to convince people that you're serious about it.
01:11:59.280If you're really serious about it, people have already proven that they're willing to sacrifice their lives for their liberation.
01:12:05.440We just hope that this time they're not alone, that they're not going to be thrown under the bus yet again.
01:12:10.440And I think this president has been very strong with what he's done.
01:12:13.820I'm only here to encourage the fact that stay the course, get the job done.
01:12:17.700And I know that today it's not just Iranian people, but I think there are many other countries in the region who have been facing the regime's retaliation who understand that as long as this regime continues to exist, the problem will never be solved, irrespective of to what extent you think you would have achieved some kind of a diplomatic solution.
01:12:37.100I doubt that the regime will give up its nuclear material.0.54
01:12:40.240I doubt they will put an end to their proxy support.
01:12:43.320I doubt that they will stop funding terrorism abroad.
01:12:46.460These are the kind of elements, as I said, that is part of its DNA.
01:12:49.680So, guys, that's very important because from all the three things he just said here,
01:12:56.800When he says, I doubt the regime will give up its nuclear material,
01:13:01.960Basically, the nuclear dust, the 440 kilograms of 60% enriched uranium, that means that regime change is the only way.
01:13:11.320That means that Americans are actually much more aligned with the Iranian people and the Israelis indirectly more aligned with us than many people assume, right?
01:13:21.320Because there's only three ways to get the enriched uranium out.
01:13:24.200Either the Islamic Republic has to bend the knee, surrender, and give up the enriched uranium, or the Americans have to go in and take it by force in a very hostile environment, or there needs to be regime change and the transitional government will cooperate with the Americans and take out the nuclear dust.
01:13:43.740there's only these three options there's no other way to get it out um and the prince as we mentioned
01:13:50.540here princess prince rizopalavi is confirming that the first option is that is very unlikely
01:13:57.820that's what he said the second option is also very unlikely if you understand the complication
01:14:02.060between behind the uh the military operations and the engineering operations required to take the
01:14:07.580nuclear dust out of um deep from deep underground underneath you know tons of tons of uh debris and
01:14:15.740you know uh all the you know all everything that is left from the uh the the explosions and the
01:14:24.460operation midnight hammer is under all of that and it's like it really very very unlikely to be
01:14:31.020able to do that without putting the american soldiers and engineers under very very high risk
01:14:38.540situation um so that's that option is also very very unlikely um not impossible but unlikely that
01:14:45.900would mean that the only options for the americans to get what they want is regime change so even if
01:14:50.540they just want the nuclear dust that means you have to do regime change and that makes the
01:14:54.380americans actually indirectly way more aligned with the iranian people and israelis i cannot
01:15:01.020envisage the fact that the regime will be willing to concede on all those points and
01:43:06.260or if something actually happened that he's responding to.
01:43:10.700But I think it makes more, for Prince Reza Pallavi,
01:43:14.780for him, it makes more sense for him not to fall in that trap.
01:43:18.140It's our job as his supporters to go and find
01:43:21.580which one of these are a lie and respond to it.
01:43:24.900But I think Prince Reza Pallavi just should,
01:43:26.860like what he's doing is the best strategy for him just put a blanket condemnation of anybody who is
01:43:35.080because that if you chase that if you if for him to go like well actually that report is this and
01:43:40.360this and that then it was it will becomes a he said he said she said uh you know oh he's trying
01:43:46.920to run away from this responsibility accusation against him so i think what he's doing is the
01:43:52.720best strategy to just make sure that he says like whatever anybody's doing that is not in line with
01:43:58.700our values i condemn that and that's not what we tolerate here i think that's the best position
01:44:04.540for him to have talk briefly about um president trump's leadership you know you've praised the
01:44:10.620president as a man of action and a man of peace and aligned yourself close with uh the conservative
01:44:15.540movement here in the u.s do you see trump's leadership style as a model for a future
01:44:20.400democratic leader of Iran, whether that's you or someone else?
01:44:23.360MR. Well, no, no. I think right now what we're talking about is what is
01:44:29.200the President of the United States, the strongest, more powerful country on the planet, doing to
01:44:35.360alleviate a problem that could be a game changer for the entire planet. And this is exactly what
01:44:41.040we're talking about. Is he the kind of president who sees that as a result of what would put an
01:44:47.360end to this regime what kind of a positive consequence that can have for the world to
01:44:52.400finally breathe a sigh of relief that you no longer have this terrorist regime that is out
01:44:57.600there threatening its neighborhood uh threatening the world with nuclear annihilation radicalism
01:45:04.000terrorism missile strikes and so on and so forth in exchange for a nation that will say hey we are
01:45:10.000peace loving people we want to be an element of stability we can work with our regional partners
01:45:16.480whether they are the Arab countries or the Israelis, to bring about the element that will
01:45:20.800no longer require America or other Western nations to deploy their fleet to maintain
01:45:27.920security with maritime traffic or anything else in the region. We can do it ourselves.
01:45:33.120This is what's at stake. It's putting all the negatives associated with this regime,
01:45:38.800and instead bring all the positives that I'm sure Iranians will quite clearly prove to be doing0.55
01:45:44.880that so whatever the president is doing now is very critical not just for what it does in the
01:45:49.920interest of the united states and its interests but also how it can have an impact in the region
01:45:56.000that's really what's at stake here you mentioned people are naming streets after president trump
01:46:00.400in iran israeli prime minister bb netanyahu also told cbs news recently quote in iran they name
01:46:06.080streets after me they call me bb june beloved bb is that what you're hearing he said um israeli
01:46:12.320Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu just told CBS News, quote, in Iran, they named streets after me.
01:46:16.960They call me Bibi June, beloved Bibi. Is that what you're hearing?
01:46:21.040Well, I think there's ample material in social media that you can see to the extent of how
01:46:32.080Iranians respond. It's not just limited to the diaspora. A lot of people say, well,
01:46:38.240these are people outside but also inside pre-internet uh blackout um that still exists in
01:46:45.520social media you can do your own diligence and research it is already there and yes it
01:46:49.360confirms what you just said a lot of sympathetic messages coming from iran uh praising uh uh
01:46:56.400president trump and prime minister netanyahu for having had the courage to to step in and
01:47:02.160do something about about the situation and again i hope that this internet blackout will ultimately
01:47:07.520be lifted and a lot more will probably come out as a result to the extent that i know in the meantime
01:47:14.480despite the fact that for over 70 days that we've had no no direct access to inside iran but some
01:47:20.320of the information that is trickling out that that i have access to continues to demonstrate
01:47:25.360that the people are resilient they are still hoping that this action will be taken to the very
01:47:29.840end they still hope that president trump will do what needs to be done and the israelis are doing
01:47:35.840what they can from their aspect. But I think now we can start seeing perhaps even more
01:47:42.560direction for some of the countries that have become much more, how can I say, vocal about
01:47:50.800having been now subject to the regime's retaliation. I'm talking countries such as the UAE or Saudi
01:47:57.120Arabia, other countries that have been targeted. It seems that the regime has even further isolated
01:48:02.160itself. And as a result, we're going to get much more information coming out of there.
01:48:07.040So it's a combination of the immediate region, but from inside Iran itself. And this is something
01:48:12.800that will only reaffirm that the Iranian people know what's at stake. They want this regime gone.0.84
01:48:17.840They are prepared to see even more action taken by foreign countries that have been able to act
01:48:26.640militarily against this regime. And this is going to be for us another opportunity to finally
01:48:31.920overcome the regime's means to brutalize us, to silence us, to repress us, and finally break free
01:48:38.160from the jail cells and take our country back. As I said, this is a liberation campaign for us,
01:48:43.920and we hope in this case we will not – we'll be able to continue having the kind of support we
01:48:49.680need to get back on. MS. Yeah, finally, I started this conversation by asking you
01:48:53.520for your message to the Iranian people. What is your basic fundamental message to the people here,
01:49:01.200here in Washington. The message is simple. How many of you happen to know an Iranian friend or
01:49:09.520colleague or family? I'm sure many of you do. And I'm sure you've seen how they have behaved,
01:49:15.600how they have comported themselves, how much they appreciate the country in which they live. As a
01:49:20.160matter of fact, have you seen all the demonstrations that have occurred ever since January in multiple
01:49:28.160cities across the planet in australia in canada in the united states in europe and the kind of
01:49:36.480civility that iranians have shown every country in which they demonstrate they respect the flag
01:49:42.240of the country that hosts them if it's america it's the american flag if it's in canada it's
01:49:46.640the canadian flag if it's in germany it's the german flag and so on and so forth they are
01:49:51.600respectful and they are appreciative of the country in which they live and they will probably have
01:49:56.480told you many of them that having not been for this regime that forced us to leave our country
01:50:02.000because we are baha'is or because we're jews or because we were you know uh not straight or what
01:50:09.280have you uh you know we would uh not have been forced to live and and now we live here we
01:50:14.160appreciate our the country in which we live they're educated here they're working here
01:50:19.280they're contributing to their respective societies but many of them would like to be able to go home
01:50:25.200So imagine the best allies or the best ambassadors that they can be on behalf of this time America vis-a-vis Iran, or as Iranians living in the United States, no matter how you look at it.
01:50:37.240This is a wealth of human resources.0.70
01:50:41.300This is the true measurable meaning of what kind of people are we dealing with.0.77
01:50:47.260Are these the kind of people who will represent Iran's future or a bunch of thugs that are0.65
01:50:52.600not terrorizing our nation and executing athletes or singers inside Iran just for throwing stone
01:55:01.660Again, I wouldn't want to get in the middle of these
01:55:03.560negotiations. I want maximum efficacy.
01:55:04.900I do. I want to get in the middle of these negotiations.
01:55:07.820I don't trust Pakistan as far as I can throw up.0.90
01:55:11.880If they actually do have a aircraft parked in Pakistan bases to protect Iranian military assets, that tells me we should be looking maybe for somebody else to mediate.0.99
01:55:25.160No wonder this damn thing is going nowhere.0.99
02:00:55.960And when President Trump says that we don't have to rush anything, that means that President Trump is signaling that they're comfortable with where they are at, and this could take longer.
02:01:09.680And if you actually look at the S&P 500, you can see that it's doing very well.
02:01:15.780We're up 8% in the past six months, which is crazy.
02:01:24.600But again, it's not the U.S. economy that is putting pressure on President Trump. It's other countries. It's the European countries and Japan, South Korea. It's the UAE. It's Saudi Arabia. It's Qatar.
02:01:41.240So even though U.S.'s economy is doing quite okay right now, even with the blockade on the street of Hormuz, these other countries do have some lobbying power and some ability to try to convince President Trump, especially these countries that I mentioned, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait, they are not at all comfortable.
02:02:05.780Even though America's economy is doing fine, they're not doing fine.0.91
02:02:09.720So that's the only pressure that the Islamic Republic is banking on to try to pressure the United States.
02:02:16.380They're not pressuring the United States directly.
02:02:18.400They're trying to pressure the United States through the Arab countries around the Persian Gulf.
02:02:23.640But it seems that that hurt on the United States is not as much as the damage that the blockade is doing on Iran's economy.
02:02:33.580The Islamic Republic is suffering more.
02:02:35.780And that's why President Trump is saying that we're comfortable where we are right now, right?
02:02:40.920And this is why, if we go over here, here's another segment.
02:03:29.960But they did say, because, you know, they demeaned the B-2 bombers.
02:03:33.340those guys every shot hit everything we sent in tomahawks from a submarine they all hit
02:03:39.180but every shot hit and they demean the b2 bombers when cnn starts saying you know well maybe it
02:03:44.620wasn't that bad iran told me that it was so devastating that no country in the world other
02:03:51.740than us and they said china would be able to has the machinery to be able to get that
02:03:58.140Okay, so this is interesting because President Trump says 100% they're going to give it to me.
02:04:06.220Okay, 100%. So the reporter was like, do you really feel that you can stop Iran from enriching0.50
02:04:12.620uranium and ever building a bomb? Trump's saying 100% they're going to stop. And they told me,
02:04:18.940the Iranians told me, they said we're going to get the dust. Okay, so again, as I mentioned,0.94
02:04:25.340there's three options here either the islamic republic bends the knees and surrenders and gives0.87
02:04:30.220them the dust or americans go take it by force or we have regime change and the new transitional0.74
02:04:36.940government cooperates with the americans and they go get the dust so this language
02:04:44.300so uh suggests that president trump is banking on the first option
02:04:49.820okay this again this might be mind games this might be confusing the regime
02:04:55.340But based on what I know about the Islamic Republic, this is not likely.
02:05:01.660I mean, everything is possible, but this, I don't see that.
02:05:05.000Guys, in the chat, do you see this as a likely option for the Islamic Republic?
02:05:10.940Because guys, remember also that we have official statements from Moshe Abu Khamenei saying that not only they're not going to agree to any of this,
02:06:39.420I would like to, I would be interested in knowing.
02:06:41.800Also, there's another update from President Trump, and then after this, we'll go to the superchats, saying, U.S. President, this is by Iran International, U.S. President, oh, actually, this is the report of what we just heard.
02:06:57.380U.S. President Donald Trump on Tuesday said Iran would stop enriching uranium and abandon any effort to build nuclear weapons, even as talks between Washington and Tehran remain stalled.
