Learn English with Rashad Ali Babaei, Iran's first female Prime Minister. She was the first woman Prime Minister of Iran to become Prime Minister and first woman to serve as Iran's Prime Minister in 80 years. She is a human rights activist, human rights defender, and human rights advocate. She served as Prime Minister from 1979 to 1989, when the Islamic Revolution took place in Iran.
00:31:37.740But given that, apparently, the IRGC was planning to assassinate President Trump's daughter, Ivanka Trump.
00:31:51.500Yeah, I don't think President Trump's going to let that go.
00:31:54.260Because it's one thing to go after himself, but it's another thing to go after his children.
00:32:00.420And I can guarantee you that any parent will tell you that if someone targets their children, that's an even bigger deal than if they themselves were being targeted.
00:32:14.300Like at that point, like that's personal.
00:32:18.560So I don't know when it's going to happen.0.90
00:32:22.220But given that the Islamic regime is now assassinated or sorry, is targeting President Trump's children.0.81
00:32:30.160right um yeah i don't think the islamic regime has has long left i think you're so on point goldie
00:32:38.640if somebody is trying to target you that's one thing but i think most parents would agree
00:32:44.400that if you learn that a group of people are trying to kill your child then you would do you
00:32:53.680will stop at nothing to make sure there's nothing left of them yeah it will become your mission
00:33:00.960to make sure they're completely eradicated exactly exactly so do you want to bring up that uh that
00:33:08.400news yes okay and i saw mark levin was posting it as well so let me also let me flip my camera so
00:33:19.600I'm actually looking at this instead okay so look at this Mark Levin was saying Ivanka was as
00:33:26.400was an assassination target by the Iranian regime and then he quote posted this video so let's watch
00:33:34.800it together a remarkable effort by our our FBI Director Patel leadership and our international
00:33:44.320partners. And we were able to intercept and get in the middle of this man's attempts to wreak
00:33:51.800havoc and terrorize not only the United States, Canada, Europe. And so we were able to introduce
00:33:56.760an undercover working with our law enforcement partners. So I think what our U.S. attorney just
00:34:01.680said is dead on, that President Trump's leadership around the world allows us to have the credibility
00:34:07.220and the partnerships to allow us to work with folks overseas. And that's what happened here.
00:34:12.980So he was brought here and appeared in court earlier today.
00:34:18.880And it is a, on the one hand, should be very alarming to the people in this country that there are men around the world trying to exact this sort of terror.
00:34:29.420On the other hand, it shows the success of good law enforcement work and good police work and working hard to protect our borders, which is what we do every single day.
00:34:40.020And so this investigation is ongoing. It's just a complaint. I expect the next steps will be an indictment. And obviously, we're still investigating and going to make sure that anybody that was involved with him will be brought to justice as well.
00:34:54.340Was he picked up in Iraq? And when was he brought to the United States?
00:34:57.800He was recently brought to the United States. I want to be careful talking about the operation
00:35:03.300so I don't put anybody in danger, but it's enough to say that this was an effort that included not
00:35:09.840only the FBI, but our law enforcement partners overseas as well.
00:35:14.700I saw Newsmax was also reporting on this. Let me bring that up.
00:35:19.420Thank you so much for being with us. I want to start with some breaking news this evening.
00:35:27.720There are reports circulating that first daughter Ivanka Trump has been targeted by an Islamic
00:35:33.440Revolutionary Guard Corps trained terrorist in a revenge plot over the death of Iran's military
00:35:39.020chief Qasem Soleimani in a U.S. drone strike. The terrorist reportedly spoke of the plot
00:35:44.560for which he supposedly had a blueprint of Ivanka's Florida home before his recent capture
00:35:51.180in Turkey. He has since been extradited to the U.S. So, Waleed, I want to get your reaction on
00:35:57.720this first. What do you think? Well, first of all, jihadists in general have targeted,
00:36:04.820have said that they have targeted the Trump family. I, myself, as one of the first foreign0.92
00:36:09.300policy advisors during the campaign in 2016. There was an invitation coming from Egypt,
00:36:16.820but from allies. And the campaign was very firm. The invitation was to Ivanka Trump to deliver a
00:36:23.300speech to women. The campaign was very clear. And I was from that direction. You cannot have her go
00:36:29.700because the Muslim battle of the jihadists. And now we have a problem with the Islamic regime in0.99
00:36:34.420Iran since the assassination, mostly since that time of the head of the Quds Force.
00:36:40.260So it is very serious when we hear stories or reports about individuals who have been working
00:36:47.620with the commander who has been eliminated, who have been working with the regime against members
00:36:52.180of the families. That is a top priority because by targeting the family, by targeting people who are
00:36:57.780close to the president or members of the cabinet or anybody who is a decision maker,
00:37:03.700they are they are trying to create a chaos they're trying to create divisions
00:37:08.260to get and gain time for their regime so we have to be very careful about that and i i am very
00:37:14.820happy that this information was uh you know unveiled and then he is arrested so i goldie
00:37:22.580i think this um to me suggests that they are very emotional about this because you would know that
00:37:31.700this will anger President Trump like nothing else.0.98
00:37:37.320Whoever had this plan from within the Islamic Republic0.94
00:37:42.460must be so emotionally hurt by Ali Khamenei being kotleted0.86
00:37:49.700that they're just reacting in a way to try to cause maximum pain
00:37:56.200to President Trump rather than something that would make more sense
00:38:01.500for their survival. This is a very emotional response. You know what's even crazier is that
00:38:11.060the person who was planning on doing the assassination is not even Iranian. He's from1.00
00:38:19.460Iraq. He's like the Iraqi militia proxy groups, right? So this is what Armin and I and the vast
00:38:27.980majority of Iranians talk about when we say that the Islamic regime is a foreign occupying terrorist
00:38:34.780organization, they're not Iranian. They're pretty much anti-Iranian. Yes, there are certain
00:38:42.700elements within the Iranian population that support them and are part of them. But the
00:38:48.320Islamic regime is comprised of various other groups and entities that are not Iranian in
00:38:57.240any way, shape or form. And this Iraqi terrorist, who I believe he was part of
00:39:04.920Kataib Hezbollah, which is an Iraqi, you know, Shia terrorist group that's funded by the Islamic
00:39:13.480regime, using the stolen blood money of the Iranian people. You know, he was planning,0.95
00:39:20.520And he was also planning on targeting Jewish people, but also Iranian dissidents who are
00:39:27.100speaking out against the Islamic regime.
00:39:29.300So this is why we Iranians, we always differentiate because the enemy isn't Iran.0.93
00:39:36.180The enemy is the Islamic regime that's occupying Iran.0.98
00:39:39.400And unless and until people make that distinction, you will never be able to truly fight the0.94
00:39:47.880enemy because you first have to identify the enemy. You have to identify the ideology of the
00:39:54.680enemy. So, you know, it's, it's, it's horrifying here. And that's the scary part is that Armin,
00:40:01.220anyone, you know, any sort of like the vast majority of these terrorist supporters of the
00:40:07.740Islamic regime are not even Iranian. Do you recall the shooting that happened? I believe it was
00:40:15.320somewhere in Texas. It was either Houston or Austin. The shooting happened, I think, right
00:40:20.540after Khamenei was exterminated. And the guy was, I think he was from like Senegal or like some
00:40:28.900African country. And he did that shooting as retaliation for United States and Israel
00:40:37.460exterminating Ali Khamenei, the supreme dictator. It was Austin. Okay. Yeah. So it was Austin,
00:40:42.040texas that guy he was from africa and you know he was wearing an irgc t-shirt or something like1.00
00:40:50.680it's just it's wild it's wild and that's the scary thing there are so many of these non-iranian0.71
00:40:57.560sleeper cells who are all around and they're supporting the islamic regime that's occupying0.99
00:41:04.200iran and they're trying to silence our voices as iranians when we try to speak out against it0.99
00:41:09.560that's a that's completely correct and goldie i'm so glad that you mentioned that he was kata1.00
00:41:16.940because kata is a subcategory of hashishabbi which reminds us on top of all of that that the
00:41:25.440basically hashishabbi is the same group of people who were who were killing the iranian people in
00:41:31.880early January inside Iran. So you could see how mutual our enemies are. So the people responsible
00:41:41.240for trying to kill President Trump's daughter, assassinate her, are basically from the very same0.65
00:41:49.380group of Haish al-Shabi that were inside Iran massacring the Iranian people into tens of0.88
00:41:56.340thousands and this means our enemies are the same yeah and this is why armin one of the five
00:42:03.780conditions um for president trump uh to sort of you know end the the conflict one of the conditions0.74
00:42:11.460is for the islamic regime to stop financing its proxy terrorist groups around the world
00:42:18.740and i don't see the islamic regime doing that i don't see the islamic regime agreeing to that0.62
00:42:23.380Because they operate through these proxy terrorist groups, both to keep the Iranian people suppressed and prevent the Iranian people from rising up, but also to engage in these sorts of potential terrorist attacks around the world.0.54
00:42:42.280Exactly. And I don't see them giving up on this either, because they see those people as their compatriots more than the anti-regime Iranian people.0.65
00:42:52.420So one thing you saw when we played to you guys, you know, the Durka Durka Jihadi videos, one of the lines in those videos is that which means that as long as you are a friend of Ali, Imam Ali, the first Imam of Shia Muslims, you are our compatriot.
00:43:15.920So like me and Goldie, the Islamic regime in Iran, like when we say they are not Iranian, it's not just us who are saying it.
00:43:25.460They are saying that they don't consider me and Goldie to be their compatriots, but Hezbollah and Hashd al-Shaabi and the Houthis and the Zaynabiyun and the Fatimiyun to be their compatriots.
00:43:38.380So their priority is the Ummah, not the Iranian nation.0.91
00:43:43.880And another sign to show that Goldie is right is that in their conditions for a ceasefire,0.86
00:43:53.400when they say that they want the United States to guarantee that they will not attack anymore,0.95
00:50:57.400So, I mean, yeah, you can say that because that would be part of what, like, President Trump said in, like, a press conference or a phone call or something, right?
00:51:08.740U.S. President Donald Trump said on Saturday he would decide by Sunday whether to resume the war with Iran after reviewing Tehran's latest proposal with his negotiators.
00:51:22.860Axios reported citing an interview with the president.
00:51:27.920Trump said it was a solid 50-50 whether the sides could reach an agreement or blow them to kingdom come.
00:51:40.440Well, I think one of those, so this is a quote by President Trump saying,
00:51:46.140I think one of those things will happen. Either I hit them harder than they have ever been hit,
00:51:52.160or we are going to sign a deal that is good, he told Axios. He also dismissed suggestions that0.66
00:51:59.720Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was concerned he might accept an unfavorable deal,
00:52:06.860saying Netanyahu was not worried. So that's good to know. A lot of people are trying to make it
00:52:12.120seem like uh bb and president trump are fighting bb june and president trump are fighting and
00:52:19.920president trump keeps confirming that that's not the case so what do you think about this i mean
00:52:27.700i mean if those are the choices my money is on
00:52:31.380blow blowing them to kingdom come that's a high there's a that's what i would bet on
00:52:40.220between these two options i don't see the regime accepting a deal that president trump would like
00:52:47.700is that your assessment as well as well yes that's um that's my assessment okay i i need to find the
00:52:59.100full clip of this but look at look at this look at have you seen this clip from marco rubio
00:53:05.540hey this one i think so i think that might be it i'm gonna see if i can find the full clip
00:53:15.320okay mine is only 30 i had this i had this in my list but it's only 38 seconds so maybe
00:53:22.960well i'll send you the one that i found i haven't listened to it but i don't know if it's the same
00:53:28.780clip because i'll try to find the full thing but anyways here's the link to yeah play that one
00:53:35.400play that one for sure and then there's the other one and i'm going to try to find the full thing if
00:53:39.720i can okay okay there's been some progress done some progress made even as i speak to you now
00:53:47.000there's some work being done there is a chance that whether it's later today tomorrow in a couple
00:53:51.240days we may have something to say but this issue needs to be solved as the president said one way
00:53:55.480or the other iran can never have a nuclear weapon the straits need to be open without tolls they
00:54:00.680need to turn over their enriched uranium they need to turn or their highly enriched uranium
00:54:04.680if we need to address that issue we need to address the issue of enrichment these are the
00:54:08.760president's points consistently and his preference is always to deal with it in a diplomatic way
00:54:13.960the president's preference is always to solve problems such as these through a negotiated
00:54:18.440diplomatic solution that's what we're working on right now there's been some progress done so
00:54:23.240so just looking at this 38 second none of that is happening by the regime like if that's the
00:54:29.080if that's still what they're insisting on i could tell you already that the regime like i find it
00:54:36.120hard for the regime to be able to do any of this like if it's between this what marco rubio saying
00:54:41.640or boom booms then if i was the betting man which i'm not i would bet on boom booms like just like
00:54:48.520we're still apparently at this point like none of the red lines based according to what marco rubio
00:54:53.400are saying none of the american red lines have been removed let's let's go through them one more
00:54:59.320time there's been some progress done some progress made even as i speak to you now there's some work
00:55:04.040being done there is a chance that whether it's later today tomorrow in a couple days we may
00:55:08.760have something to say but this issue needs to be solved as the president said one way or the other
00:55:12.360iran can never have a nuclear weapon the straits need to be open without yeah the straight being
00:55:17.240open without a toll the regime is not going to accept that open without tolls they need to turn
00:55:22.120over their enriched uranium they need they're not gonna do they're not gonna want to do that so
00:55:26.360that's not happening the turnover they're highly enriched uranium that we need to address that
00:55:30.440issue we need to address the issue of enrichment these are the president's points consistent yeah
00:55:35.080if these are if these are still the president's points and nothing has been changed then yep we're
00:55:42.120not gonna i mean my bet is no deal no deal so let's look at what goldie sent us guys we do
00:55:50.120see the super chats we're not ignoring them we're going to read them in half exactly half an hour
00:55:55.560from now we're going to be reading all the super chat so thank you for the support we'll get to them
00:55:59.800soon and okay and thank you leo for keeping count so this is the fuller version okay this is one
00:56:06.920minute we should have just played this one so let's play this maybe news later today i don't
00:56:12.200have news for you at this very moment but there might be some news a little later today there
00:56:15.560may not be i hope there will be but i'm not sure yet the question is about the iranian issue and
00:56:22.600as i said there's been some progress done some progress made even as i speak to you now there's
00:56:27.320some work being done there is a chance that whether it's later today tomorrow in a couple days
00:56:32.120we may have something to say but this issue needs to be solved as the president said one way or the
00:56:35.800other iran can never have a nuclear weapon the straits need to be open without tolls they need
00:56:41.000to turn over their enriched uranium they need to turn or their highly enriched uranium we need to
00:56:45.400to address that issue. We need to address the issue of enrichment. These are the president's
00:56:49.540points consistently. And his preference is always to deal with it in a diplomatic way.
00:56:54.300The president's preference is always to solve problems such as these through a negotiated
00:56:58.640diplomatic solution. That's what we're working on right now. But this problem will be solved,
00:57:03.320as the president's made clear one way or the other. We hope it's done through the diplomatic
00:57:07.880route. That's what we're working on. And perhaps there'll be something to talk about on that topic
00:57:11.540while I'm here on this visit at some point.
00:57:26.960when President Trump or his administration
00:57:31.080and the people close to him are making statements
00:57:35.380such as, we're going to make a decision later today,
00:57:39.720they've already made the decision they just don't want to say that um because if we go back to
00:57:48.080uh february 27 um if you recall um on february 27 i think president trump was with ted cruz and
00:58:02.760a few other people. There's a video. Okay, I'm going to find it. But from pattern and, you know,
00:58:14.080past examples, when you have Trump or Rubio or others saying, yes, you know, we're going to make
00:58:22.400a decision later today, that means a decision has already been made. Because why would President
00:58:30.940Trump give a heads up or a notice? Why would President Trump come out and just say, for
00:58:37.700example, yes, we've decided to strike on this day, at this time, and this location? They're
00:58:45.940never going to come out. Until it's already done, they're never going to come out in advance and say,
00:58:53.800we have decided to go to war because one of the main elements of the attack is surprise,
00:59:00.460Right. And again, the way that the United States and Israel were able to exterminate Khamenei on February 28 was by convincing Khamenei and his, you know, his commanders that they were not going to strike that weekend.
00:59:17.100There was no possibility of striking that weekend. And so Khamenei came out from his underground bunker and he was meeting, he was having a meeting with his top IRGC commanders and then they were all boom boomed in that meeting.
00:59:30.460Yeah, and they tried to spin it as a way that he was brave and he knew he was going to die. But then the people from his family confirmed that that was not the case. Because if that was the case, he wouldn't be with his grandchild and family around him. And he wouldn't have the IRGC commanders with him all there to die as well.
00:59:53.680and so we know that the Americans have successfully fooled Ali Khamenei to thinking that he's safe
01:00:03.060to come from a deeper part of his bunker to the much less deep part of his bunker
01:00:08.540and then the Israelis intelligence figured out that he was he came out and they took him out
01:00:14.580yeah yeah yeah I'm still I'm still trying to find that but oh yeah but please continue with
01:00:22.680that with with the videos that analysis i'll see if i can find that older video um
01:00:27.240but yeah like the united states is they're like they're not gonna tell anyone in advance
01:00:33.980what decision they've made until after it's already happened exactly exactly um also okay guys
01:00:44.060it's not just us who thinks that the chances of military operations are high it's also airlines
01:00:52.220because this is happening in Iran without a NOTAM, right?
01:01:00.300So the regime in Iran is not limiting airplanes flying over Iran,
01:01:51.180The spokesperson denied a notice recently circulated on social media.
01:01:56.160The denial came after Iran's civil aviation organization said Friday that activity at airports in the western part of Iran's flight information region, known as Tehran FIR, had been suspended until Monday with only a limited number of airports allowed to operate.
01:02:17.460That earlier notice said several airports, including Urumiya, Kerman, Abadan, Shiraz, Yaz, Kerman Shah, Rashid, and Ahwas were exempt from the restrictions but could operate only from sunrise to sunset.
01:02:36.020But look at what this looks like right now.
01:03:16.320This is from an hour ago, saying breaking U.S. President Donald Trump told CBS News he had read a draft agreement with Iran but declined to say whether he had approved it.
01:03:31.540Trump said, adding, I can't tell you whether I signed off on it before I tell them, right?
01:03:39.880So he's basically asking the reporters, like, I can't tell you before I tell them.
01:03:42.920he said the two sides were getting a lot closer as diplomatic efforts continued to prevent a
01:03:50.000renewed conflict hmm interesting so this was from an hour ago right
01:03:56.580i mean again this this could just be a ploy right the two sides are getting a lot closer
01:04:04.380what does that actually mean we still don't even know uh who's responsible for the negotiations
01:04:10.700And, you know, given that Vahidi is in control, there's no way that they're going to give up the nuclear ambitions or support for the proxy terrorist groups or anything like that.
01:04:22.300And then there's also this President Trump Truth Social post that he posted four hours ago.0.57
01:13:35.740Despite Washington accepting some of Tehran's positions,
01:13:38.900The three issues remain unresolved and Iran is preparing for other, preparing other options, Fars reported citing the source. So other options means going to war. That's what it means. And then we also had this. So Goldie, what do you make of this? Because Dan Scavino Jr. is one of the most trusted, one of President Donald Trump's longest serving and most trusted and closest advisors.
01:42:10.040Yes. I mean, here's the thing, Radul. I think when it comes to the Islamic Republic calling their actions, you know, human rights violations or crime against humanity or crimes against the citizens is just such an understatement.
01:42:25.480The regime's entire existence is a crime against humanity and against all people worldwide.0.99
01:42:35.740So I think we need, for the Islamic regime, we need a new war.0.99
01:42:40.100Like calling what they're doing a violation of human rights or crimes against humanity just doesn't capture the level of evil that we're dealing with when it comes to the Iranian regime.0.99
01:42:53.320but I but you're but you're completely right by the way so thank you for the super chat0.81
01:42:57.400and then we have a fleshy interloper saying to get chats started well thank you for getting us
01:43:05.140you know get the ball rolling thank you thank you for a fleshy interloper really appreciate that
01:43:10.220and also thank you to Leo for keeping count and also I saw I think we have someone else was doing
01:43:16.500that as well and then I don't know why I'm hearing myself back from my phone even though the audio is
01:43:21.740zero i'm gonna put my phone far away from the microphone okay let's go to eda eda thank you
01:43:28.800so much for the super chat saying this that's it i'm losing my mind love you all keep a peaching
01:43:36.620we will we will i know i know i know what you're talking about the roller coaster the up and down
01:43:41.560is sometimes it's really hard to to to you know to deal with it it does it it does drive a person
01:43:49.640crazy but again remember we were on this roller coaster right before operation epic fury and we
01:43:54.920were rewarded we were rewarded for you know just suffering through it and then eventually we got
01:44:01.320rewarded for our patience and hopefully this one this time it will be the same and thank you again
01:44:06.520for the super chat either and then we have van dieveld saying please let him try boom boom time
01:44:13.960just voted red okay well thank you and yes boom boom time indeed hopefully soon hopefully within
01:44:20.520minutes maybe before we even go a fair coldie maybe like right when we're live we all of a sudden
01:44:27.640we're here so yeah we'll see imagine i'm keeping an eye i'm keeping an eye on everything so
01:44:34.040yes goldie sees everything guys go right she does okay and then we have bk bk thank you so much for
01:44:46.840the super chat saying have you seen the protest videos in iran today goldie i think you shared
01:44:52.440some of that right uh we did see yeah this is we did we did see students students were protesting
01:44:59.880inside iran because um because of their exams being in-person exams so that is that might be
01:45:10.840a that's actually a good point that might be a spark for the next round of protest this is the
01:45:15.300first time that we've been seeing protests inside iran usually remember the reason why this is a
01:45:20.860big deal is because usually when there's a there's something that starts the protests
01:45:57.120so this is the students in iran are really angry because the school system there is telling them
01:46:12.320to come and do exams even though they didn't learn anything because there were no classes
01:46:17.380and the online platforms that they had for learning was useless so they're basically
01:46:23.140protesting against the education system there because they still have the exams are still
01:46:26.880ongoing even though they didn't learn anything so let me just play this
01:46:30.340so yeah that's happening so this might uh turn into something bigger sometimes something small
01:46:49.960of a sudden turns into people coming out and protesting against the regime totally so that's
01:46:54.520why we're keeping an eye on it and thank you biki thank you for the super chat and then either it
01:46:59.720is saying iranian state of mind in the voice of frank sinatra okay that's what that's what isa is
01:47:06.120feeling right now and then oh my god this giant big super chat on for goldie goldie i think you
01:47:14.360you want to read this because thank you very much the persian mob so the persian mob writes
01:47:20.200could the united states say publicly that tolls should not be accepted but then turn a blind eye
01:47:27.860to it if some kind of deal is reached someone presented that idea as a possibility not sure of
01:47:35.280effect it would have on global trade and economy so um i'm not sure who uh presented that idea as
01:47:43.720a possibility. I mean, you have to keep in mind that there are a lot of people online who will
01:47:48.620provide opinions and these people are neither qualified nor educated in, you know, geopolitics
01:47:54.480or, you know, anything like that. So a lot of this could just be, you know, clickbait. And of course,
01:48:01.460a lot of people will just, you know, come up with any crazy scenario and be like, this could be a
01:48:05.300possibility. Um, so here's the thing, um, the putting tolls on the Strait of Hormuz is actually
01:48:13.820illegal. Okay. Because, um, the part that the ships pass through is actually part of the
01:48:20.320international waterway. So you cannot put tolls on international waters. That's the first thing.
01:48:25.380So that in and of itself is completely against, um, maritime law. Um, and then the next thing is
01:48:31.860that. So you ask, would the United States turn a blind eye to tolls? So first, so assuming that
01:48:41.060these tolls are put through, which would never happen, but assuming that it would go through,
01:48:46.040would the US turn a blind eye if some kind of deal is reached? I don't see that being a possibility
01:48:51.280at all whatsoever. And that's because part of the deal that the United States wants is the complete
01:48:59.260reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, as well as, you know, free navigation. So it doesn't even
01:49:06.800make any sense. Like you cannot have the Islamic regime agree to the deal when the deal is complete0.99
01:49:14.680reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, but then the United States agreeing to tolls. It makes absolutely0.96
01:49:19.260no sense. And whoever made this assessment or analysis is completely ignoring or maybe clueless
01:49:26.580about Operation Economic Fury. Because what's happening against the Islamic regime occupying0.52
01:49:32.580Iran, it's not just about the military side, it's also about the economic side. And Scott
01:49:37.360Bessent has been going after all of the cryptocurrency accounts of the Islamic regime.
01:49:42.780So do I see this happening? Absolutely not. I would say this is maybe like a 0.00001%
01:49:53.360chance of something like this happening. It just, it's beyond the realm of reason or possibility.
01:50:02.320The assessment does not fit within the confines of maritime law. And it also goes totally against
01:50:09.280what President Trump and Marco Rubio and others have been saying about the complete reopening of
01:50:14.000the Strait of Formos. And so yeah, it like, so then going to the final part of your question,
01:50:21.540not sure of effects it would have on global trade and economy. So if a toll was going to be put 100%,
01:50:29.320it would have a huge negative impact on global trade and economies. But again, you can't put a
01:50:35.780toll on an international waterway. So let me pull up like a map of the Strait of Hormuz,
01:50:41.400and I'll show you what I mean. So here you go. Let's see. So if I pull this up here, let me just
01:51:02.340remove the super chat for a moment so I can share my screen with you guys. So if you look at,
01:51:08.540oh wait here we go all right okay so if you look at the the map of the strait of hormos
01:51:18.160um at its narrowest point this entire strait falls entirely within the overlapping
01:51:24.86012 nautical mile territorial seas of iran and oman so given that there is an overlap the
01:51:32.680Islamic regime does not have the authority to, um, to like put a toll on the part that kind of
01:51:42.160falls within Oman because, um, there's, what is it? There's, I think it's 12 nautical miles. So,
01:51:49.780um, the way that international waters work is that, um, when you're looking at the border or
01:51:57.100boundary of a country, typically, within the first 12 nautical miles, that's considered within
01:52:05.840the territory of the country, whatever country it is. And that part of the 12 nautical miles
01:52:14.760is subject to the laws of that country. Once you go beyond the 12 nautical miles,
01:52:20.780that's considered international waters, and you can no longer enforce your country's laws.
01:52:27.100right? That's international waters, open seas. So given what's, you know, given the Strait of
01:52:32.620Hormuz here, because there's an overlap, okay, so the Islamic regime cannot force its toll
01:52:41.640on that part of the overlap with Oman, right? And that's why in, I think Armin was speaking
01:52:50.860about it earlier today, or someone was mentioning that, you know, the Islamic regime is trying to0.85
01:52:57.080work with Oman to put a toll, right? The reason that the Islamic regime is working with Oman
01:53:03.940is because of that overlap in the territorial waters. So, you know, 12 nautical miles from
01:53:10.560the Islamic regime, 12 nautical miles from Oman, there's an overlap there. So in order for the0.84
01:53:16.220Islamic regime to, let's say, enforce this toll, you know, they would need Oman's cooperation,0.92
01:53:20.680which they obviously will never get. So having said that, um, wait, let me just pause this for0.98
01:53:28.420a moment. So, so having said that, I do not see, um, any sort of toll system working. Plus on top
01:53:37.600of that, if, Oh, where's Armin? Ah, there you go. Sorry. Uh, and then plus on top of that,
01:53:47.180But if the United States was going to turn a blind eye to what the Islamic regime is doing, that would be completely counterproductive to the Islamic regime completely opening up the Strait of Hormuz.0.81
01:54:04.300it would also be counterproductive to Operation Economic Fury because one of the ways that0.69
01:54:10.880President Trump is employing maximum pressure on the Islamic regime is through the economic
01:54:18.060sanctions as well. And the Islamic regime is losing $500 million a day because they can't
01:54:24.300ship their oil out. So I hope that was a fulsome answer. Armin, did I miss out on anything or did1.00
01:54:30.360want to add anything to that i do want to add something but that was so complete thank you so
01:54:36.520much goldie so you i i completely agree with everything goldie said it's interesting to
01:54:42.200consider this from the other side because as goldie said that us would because us is a democracy
01:54:49.240and everything is transparent and if they say they're going to do something and they don't do
01:54:52.680it it will be apparent globally that they will it's not like uh that that the regime is still
01:54:58.360collecting tolls and it would be considered as a defeat by the americans so the americans would
01:55:03.480not be able to just pretend that something is not happening if it's happening but who know who can
01:55:09.320pretend something is not happening even if it's happening the islamic regime so even though the
01:55:15.000u.s is not going to be basically uh turning a blind eye to this the regime if it wanted to be
01:55:23.160flexible it could act like they're collecting tolls if they wanted to be flexible to americans
01:55:28.920were like oh we're collecting tolls and then even though the international community is verifying
01:55:33.640that no toll is being collected they could pretend to their followers that were collecting tolls
01:55:39.000just to keep them happy and the regime followers some of them would might might buy it so the other
01:55:44.200way around the regime might want to do that this is why the only part of the conditions by president
01:55:51.320Trump that the Islamic Republic cannot lie about to the pro-regime people is they enrich uranium,
01:55:59.160okay? Because President Trump might not release any funds and the regime might say they released
01:56:05.000some funds. President Trump might not allow any tolls and they might claim that we're collecting
01:56:10.040tolls. President Trump might not allow them to enrich uranium and the regime might lie to the
01:56:15.560regime supporters and say, we're going to enrich uranium, right? The one thing that is really hard
01:56:22.840for the regime to lie about to its regime supporters is the enriched uranium leaving
01:56:28.460Iran. Because if the enriched uranium leaves Iran, it has left Iran. It's so hard to lie
01:56:34.600about it. And that's why that's the most sensitive part. Just something really quick.
01:56:41.300I was checking on Axe, and Senator Lindsey Graham just posted about the Strait of Hormuz as well.
01:56:47.880So he writes, if a deal is struck to end the Iranian conflict because it is believed that the Strait of Hormuz cannot be protected from Iranian terrorism,
01:56:57.300I mean, he means Islamic regime terrorism, and Iran still possesses the capability to destroy major Persian Gulf oil infrastructure,
01:57:05.140then Iran will be perceived as being a dominant force requiring a diplomatic solution.
01:57:09.420This combination of Iran being perceived as having the ability to terrorize the strait in perpetuity and the ability to inflict massive damage to Persian Gulf oil infrastructure is a major shift of the balance of power in the region and over time will be a nightmare for Israel.
01:57:27.300Also, it makes one wonder why the war started to begin with if these perceptions are accurate.0.97
01:57:32.480I personally am a skeptic of the idea that Iran cannot be denied the ability to terrorize the0.85
01:57:38.500strait and the region cannot protect itself against Iranian military capability. It's important1.00
01:57:44.020we get this right. So, yeah, I mean, I don't I don't see the deal, including the Islamic regime1.00
01:57:50.980being able to terrorize the area like that's completely counterproductive to the whole0.99
01:57:57.440purpose yeah so i just want to share that really quickly as well no that was important thank you
01:58:04.700for that okay so goldie we got two more giant super chats okay yeah let's just go through them
01:58:12.800in order because um like i just i just think you know regardless of how much people spend
01:58:18.160um you know each each super chat is important and i just think we should go in order yeah i was just
01:58:24.200going based on what you did last time so sorry okay what did i do last time oh um i think you're
01:58:31.840confusing me with someone else maybe i've always gone through super no no no i'm not confusing i'm
01:58:35.980not confusing but it's okay we'll do this okay okay um yeah all right no it's okay like i'm
01:58:41.400okay with everything i'm okay with everything we do okay so just tell just tell me i'll do that

02:00:01.780has their own taste okay okay thank you amir um and then we have ehef ehef is saying the black
02:00:13.220dorito of doom sharing the spicy american flavor with all yeah that's the b52 they call it the
02:00:20.980black uh the black dude the b2 sorry that's b52 the b2 b2 the b2 yeah the b2 okay that's actually
02:00:30.260a pretty epic name i like that thank you um didn't know that rusmaga is saying tackle this
02:00:40.100trump always completes objectives oh that's a good spin that's a good spin that's a very clever
02:00:45.620very clever good job thank you and then we have danny danny thank you so much for the super
02:00:51.540test saying do you think no chance trump makes a bad deal question mark but no i think everybody
02:00:57.860um you know nobody is flawless obviously so when we when we support somebody or we praise somebody
02:01:05.060is based on averages or based on specific decisions they're making um i don't think
02:01:11.140i don't think any human being is completely flawless right obviously people make decisions
02:01:16.660that are wrong sometimes right but from from a perspective of iranians uh we are right now
02:01:22.980mostly focusing on the fact that president trump has done more than any president in the history0.97
02:01:28.660of the united states to to help us get rid of the islamic republic right so there might be certain0.98
02:01:34.500deals that president trump has made that you know maybe i wouldn't agree with or were criticized but0.83
02:01:38.820to at least for me that is so insignificant to what president has president trump has done
02:01:46.420that brought the Iranian people closer to their liberation. For me, that is what I focus on
02:01:54.020and what I appreciate. But obviously nobody is perfect.
02:01:59.060I also think one of the factors that has now fundamentally changed the equation is the
02:02:05.460attempted assassination plot on his daughter Ivanka. So I think whatever President Trump
02:02:12.980may have been willing to maybe negotiate i think i think that's all done i think i think it's all
02:02:19.860done i think the fact that um oh yeah this assassination attempt um happened um has
02:02:27.540fundamentally changed the equation and i think president trump is now going to be focused on
02:02:34.740complete extermination of the islamic regime if only to make sure that his children are safe0.94
02:02:41.540right because if the islamic regime is allowed to survive that means that they pose an existential1.00
02:02:49.060threat to his children and president trump will make sure i guarantee you he will make sure0.98
02:02:55.060that that existential threat is completely eradicated exactly and on top of that the0.97
02:03:01.540islamic republic is making it very difficult to make even a bad deal like the conditions that0.99
02:03:07.060the islamic republic has would have to would requires the americans to make an impossible deal0.86
02:03:14.740not just a bad deal so a bad deal is not even on the table according to the islamic republic
02:03:20.260only impossible deals are on the table um yeah and then kevin and by the way guys we're only
02:03:29.860talking possibilities because obviously nothing is 100 certain right kevin thank you so much for
02:03:35.460for the super sticker very very kind thank you so much for that and then fleshy interloper thank
02:03:41.700you so much for the super chat saying if trump frees iran i will forgive a lot okay that's good
02:03:49.200yes that's good so that might happen um also fleshy interloper here let me tell you something
02:03:57.060one way or another iran will be free and both the americans and israelis have contributed to that
02:04:04.060So it might happen sooner, it might happen later, but Iran will be free, and the Americans and Israelis have contributed to us getting us closer to a free Iran.0.74
02:04:17.420But at the end of the day, it's the Iranian people that will do the final act, the final push to free Iran.0.79
02:04:24.540Americans and Israelis just helped us get there closer, right?0.68
02:05:53.800sorry i think like my like a video went off randomly or something sorry about that0.97
02:06:00.420um so um the the islamic regime itself has exposed um how evil its ideology is and so0.95
02:06:09.340the islamic regime itself that's the that's the only silver lining for the totalitarian0.99
02:06:13.040dictatorship is that they have shown how evil and garbage they truly are so no president trump uh0.99
02:06:19.660like is not is not destroying any religion um the islamic regime itself has exposed how evil it is0.98
02:06:25.980and that's why the vast majority of iranians are now uh overwhelmingly um rejecting uh the0.96
02:06:32.060ideology of the islamic regime and and you know many iranians the vast majority um are not muslim
02:06:38.060anymore armin uh i would want to add some stuff to that as well yeah the way i would phrase it0.64
02:06:44.540is that president trump um and israel are destroying the pan-islamic shia empire right
02:06:53.420so the that's what they're destroying uh this is this is what if the islamic republic falls0.53
02:07:01.340a fundamental part of not just shia islam but islam as as a whole this would end
02:07:06.860And pan-Islamism as a whole. So the first major blow to pan-Islamism was the fall of Ottoman Empire and the last caliphs of Islam being over, not having a caliphate anymore.0.68
02:07:23.660And this would be the second major blow after that in history. So pan-Islamism as a goal, having an Islamic empire as a goal, will forever die for it to never come back again, right?0.89
02:07:37.720So in the same way that Israel ended pan-Arabism, now United States and Israel together are ending pan-Islamism as a whole.0.99
02:07:48.520And there will never be any hope for bringing that back.0.91
02:08:01.600Also, to Goldie's point, I don't think it's in the point, I don't think governments should be fighting religious ideas. I think that's the job of civilians to fight ideas, right?
02:08:15.060Governments are responsible for providing security. No government should be responsible for fighting any ideologies that we're against.
02:08:25.760we civilly it's not just governments that have responsibilities we civilians have
02:08:30.040responsibilities as well when it comes to fighting bad ideas that rests on our that rests on our
02:08:36.120shoulders um okay and then let's go to sherry sherry thank you so much for the super chat saying
