Transcript
00:02:30.000
when you look at the crowds today you have maybe five six thousand people here
00:02:34.400
on the streets yesterday a million people a million Iranians in the street
00:02:38.260
for the Ayatollah Khomeini does that not give you concern does that make you afraid
0.80
00:02:42.140
because they are afraid yeah that's right and most of the people don't say anything
00:02:47.820
because they are afraid and they are in silence you know they don't say anything
0.76
00:02:52.980
is this the silent majority of Iran out here now yes yes that's right
00:03:15.340
Why do you want the Shah? Why does she want the Shah?
00:04:39.920
Do you know Europe? Do you know what's been done? Do you know Europe? 42,000 souls are gone, killed in two days, by a regime drenched in blood. Do you know Europe? Or have you just given up?
00:06:32.020
Do you know you're up, or have you just given up?
00:06:38.640
Do you know you're up, do you feel anything at all?
00:06:45.020
Or did something break inside you, while I ran and answered the call?
00:09:02.760
All hands of the fruits of the出来 of an incredible feeling...
1.00
00:10:36.240
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
1.00
00:11:06.240
to all of our friends around the world under the yoke of the islamic republic
0.61
00:11:19.280
iran is identified in your minds with terrorism extremism and poverty the real iran is a different
0.84
00:11:28.800
Iran. A beautiful, peace-loving and flourishing Iran. It is the Iran that existed before the
00:11:38.140
Islamic Republic and it is the Iran that will rise again from its ashes the day the Islamic
0.99
00:11:44.840
Republic falls. So let me be clear about how a free Iran will act towards its neighbors and the
0.74
00:11:52.900
world after the fall of this regime. In security and foreign policy, Iran's nuclear military
00:12:02.360
program will end. Support for terrorist groups will cease immediately. A free Iran will work
00:12:11.000
with regional and global partners to confront terrorism, organized crime, drug trafficking,
0.92
00:12:22.360
Iran will act as a friend and a stabilizing force in the region,
00:12:27.560
and it will be a responsible partner in global security.
00:12:34.080
In diplomacy, relations with the United States will be normalized
00:12:38.920
and our friendship with America and her people will be restored.
00:12:44.580
The state of Israel will be recognized immediately
00:12:48.560
We will pursue the expansion of the Abraham Accords into the Cyrus Accords,
0.70
00:12:55.200
bringing together a free Iran, Israel, and the Arab world.
00:13:00.640
A new chapter will begin, grounded in mutual recognition, sovereignty, and national interest.
00:13:10.120
In energy, Iran holds some of the largest oil and gas reserves in the world.
00:13:16.320
A free Iran will become a reliable energy supplier to the free world.
0.62
00:13:33.280
In transparency and governance, Iran will adopt and enforce international standards.
00:13:52.140
In the economy, Iran is one of the world's last great untapped markets.
00:13:59.460
Our population is educated, modern, with a diaspora that connects it to the four corners of the world.
00:14:06.940
A democratic Iran will open its economy to trade, investment, and innovation, and Iran will seek to invest in the world.
00:14:23.900
This is not an abstract vision. It is a practical one, grounded in national interest, stability, and cooperation.
00:14:34.300
To achieve this, now is the time to stand with the Iranian people.
00:14:42.300
The fall of the Islamic Republic and the establishment of a secular democratic government in Iran
00:14:49.680
will not only restore dignity to my people, it will benefit the region and the world.
00:14:57.160
A free Iran will be a force for peace, for prosperity and for partnership.
00:21:11.120
Ooh, are you ready, Terran? Ooh, are you ready now?
00:23:50.000
Golden cross shining, crusader back to the fight
0.89
00:25:03.520
attitude that the prisoneringo all was in faith
00:25:58.840
If it was divine, it creates the spirit of being handsome
00:26:03.580
And we can't distract Him of the Holy Spirit
0.99
00:26:16.720
We'll never reach the breasts and adjust Him of Iran
0.79
00:27:15.360
representing so many nations. We know we are not alone and we thank you for being with us.
00:27:25.760
For all people around the world who stand today in unity with the Iranian people, this
00:27:36.080
is not just because it's good for us, and you do it out of compassion and care for our
00:27:43.060
rights to liberty and justice and equality and human rights.
00:27:47.780
But understand that it is in your best interest too, to have, unlike this regime that has
00:27:53.800
been propagating terror and radicalism we the people of iran are peacemakers and not
00:28:00.840
warmongers we like to be friends especially with the free worlds
00:28:11.880
we'd like to be able to have the best neighboring relationship with the people of our area and
00:28:18.040
region with the arab countries with israel and all our other neighbors
00:28:26.200
we are fighting for justice we're fighting for human rights we are fighting for liberty
00:28:32.280
we're fighting to put an end to all sorts of discrimination because as an iranian i stand
00:28:40.040
here to tell you that i've dedicated 47 years of my life because i think that my country deserves
00:28:47.000
far better than what we have right now now understand that their best remedy is to support
00:28:59.000
the people of iran because ultimately a free iran will be your best partner not just to bring
00:29:05.480
stability and peace but it will be in your best economic interest and opportunities together we
0.70
00:29:12.680
can prosper again and the world will be so different once the Iranian people are free
00:29:22.040
i am here to guarantee a transition to secular democratic future i am committed to be that
00:29:30.040
leader of transition for you so we can one day have the final opportunity to decide the fate
00:29:37.240
of our country through a democratic transparent process through the ballot box and free elections
00:29:45.880
and let's make sure that this time especially the free nations of this world
00:29:51.400
and their governments stand on the right side of history
00:29:55.240

00:30:24.200
Exactly, I was just going to say we're also joined by Potipto. Welcome, Durud Potipto.
00:30:32.200
Durud, I'm doing just fine and I had the chance to join with you at the start of a live stream
00:30:42.200
oh that's fantastic thank you thank you so much for being here potito um so president trump uh
00:30:49.720
is still live but he started his live about an hour ago and i've been listening to it and it's
00:30:55.320
all about this so-called deal with iran so why don't we just go right in and uh
00:31:04.280
and might as well just watch it and see what he says because this is um pretty important stuff
00:31:10.200
guys and this adds a lot of context um especially the q a part so uh but before we begin um i'd
00:31:19.320
love to hear your thoughts if you have any thoughts or comments or maybe some updates from uh from
00:31:24.840
inside of iran uh in fact there is huge news and update inside iran as uh i can uh tell you our
00:31:38.040
armin can uh approve that what is going to happen but the main point is i cannot share it with you
00:31:45.400
guys right now but believe me a huge movement is ahead of us and uh with uh with the morale and
00:31:57.240
what we are experiencing in the social media as we speak earlier and i think just in a nutshell
00:32:05.640
I think when this hatred and panic are showing at an all-time high in social media, I think
00:32:16.820
it's a huge signal that we are near a pivot point.
00:32:30.820
Are you going to stick around with us while we watch President Trump together?
00:32:35.260
course i'm going to enjoy my time sharing with you oh fantastic all right so let's just let's
00:32:41.100
just dive right into this actually armin you know why don't i send you the link so that if you want
00:32:47.820
to pause it at any point um you can go ahead and do so the live starts or actually you know
00:32:54.700
um it starts about like 10 or 13 minutes in or something so sounds great there you go okay thank
00:33:03.500
you so guys remember if we pause don't get angry with us okay because i mean maybe i shouldn't
00:33:15.580
pause no i mean we're here to provide political commentary people tune in to to listen to our
00:33:21.260
phone if anyone wants to watch this without interruptions they can go watch it on their own
00:33:42.300
let me just unmute this thank you it's a lot of press that's good we had a very
00:33:49.660
we had a great event this is something very special and i want to thank president macron
00:33:56.780
bridget his really lovely wife fantastic person for welcoming us to not a man candace owens
00:34:06.420
france for an extremely successful g7 summit i would say it's one of the most successful
00:34:14.460
And this meeting could not have come at a better time.
00:34:18.420
On Sunday, we reached an agreement with Iran that achieves everything we set out to accomplish,
00:34:23.680
everything and much more, ending the current conflict, reopening the Strait of Hormuz,
00:34:30.600
and preventing Iran from ever obtaining a nuclear weapon.
0.82
00:34:46.260
At the same time, with this announcement, or close to it, as people started to think
00:34:52.580
it was going to happen when Iran was making some very positive statements, the stock market
00:34:58.840
has surged to record highs, picking up thousands of points over the last short period of time.
00:35:07.700
oil is dropping like it has never dropped before at levels it went in numbers down seven dollars
00:35:17.940
down eight dollars they've never seen anything like that but if we didn't do this deal we could
00:35:25.860
have dropped more bombs for another three weeks two weeks four weeks two years you would never
00:35:34.020
Guys, Brent is at 77. 77. He has dropped. This means that the Islamic Republic, one of its main leverages was nothing at all. Nothing at all. President Trump has disarmed one of the three weapons that the Islamic Republic has, one of the main three.
00:35:51.760
we'd never have success your market would have instead of going up at levels that nobody's ever
00:35:58.300
seen before would go down at levels that nobody ever saw before maybe except for 1929 or whatever
00:36:04.860
and you know all the tough guys tough guys don't realize that this wasn't a three-month deal this
00:36:11.240
was years in the making you know why because i was the one that killed general salamani
00:36:29.340
we're not just grateful to President Trump
1.00
00:36:39.540
to also kill Qasem Soleimani, never forget this
00:36:45.700
all the actions that president trump has taken we're able to replace him but a lot of people
00:36:53.720
forget that the tough guys you know the tough guys that would drive the country right down the tubes
00:36:58.060
the past two days have provided a chance to discuss the details of this historic agreement
00:37:04.180
with many of our closest friends and allies including the g7 nations and many presidents
00:37:10.380
and prime ministers as you saw prime minister modi was here we had a long talk he's a great guy
00:37:15.580
they are thrilled that we made a deal every one of them there's not one nation that came to us
1.00
00:37:21.700
and said please sir keep dropping bombs on them please keep dropping bombs the stupid people say
1.00
00:37:28.340
that but i'm thrilled to report and by the way those last two days were brutal i mean the iranian
1.00
00:37:37.980
people did say please keep dropping bomb on them to be fair 100 million dollars worth of bombs
00:37:43.000
and you know it is expensive too by the way aside from everything else also israelis israelis and
00:37:50.020
iranians and they knew i was coming for a third night we informed them we're coming for a third
00:37:54.800
night they they didn't have their navy it sunk they didn't have their air force it's gone not
00:37:59.900
one plane they didn't have anti-aircraft equipment so we got free reign they didn't have their
00:38:07.760
leaders, but they have a new group of leaders that I think is, actually, I think they're
00:38:13.080
smarter. I think they're very smart. I think they're far less radicalized. And I think
00:38:21.560
So again, reminder, guys, they're not less radical. I understand why President Trump
00:38:27.200
saying that has helped us cause division among the Islamic Republic. But we do need to clarify
00:38:33.740
that all of these people are extremely radical,
00:38:40.300
and they all have the same goal of preserving the Islamic Republic.
0.99
00:38:49.680
Nobody will say that, but I guess that's, look,
00:39:05.240
I think they're going to behave much differently.
00:39:10.780
good for causing stress and internal division
1.00
00:39:15.220
but I just want to clarify that no regime change
00:39:31.580
If you kept this going, that could have happened.
00:39:34.880
But all I know is every time we talked about the possibility of peace, the stock market shot up like a rocket ship.
00:39:43.900
The people, you know, the stock market is more brilliant than anybody there is, including the people on this stage, other than me, of course.
00:39:59.340
Oh, that's a that's a terrible statement. All right. The stock market is quite brilliant. And every time we said something amazing, like we're going to settle, it would go up. And every time we said something negative, like, guess what, we're not going to be able to settle. It would go down very big, Peter. Very, very big. Tells you something.
00:40:24.180
And, you know, I've studied presidents, some good, some bad, some great.
00:40:37.260
And the one president I did not want to be was the late, great Herbert Hoover.
00:40:48.040
And so the past few days have provided a chance to discuss the details of the deal with the closest friends and allies, the heads of countries.
00:40:58.360
They were all here, a lot of them, far more than the seven, as you know, a lot of them.
00:41:05.800
I think President Macron, who did a great job, by the way, did a really fun, him and Bridget, they did a great job.
00:41:12.480
But they all put out statements saying they love this deal.
00:41:18.040
because they want to see it over and they love the fact that the hormones don't forget if we
00:41:24.400
were going to drop bombs let's say we went another month another two three months maybe weeks could
00:41:31.640
be another three months could be whatever what do you have left that may be nothing but you don't
00:41:39.100
have the strait will never be open because people that own billion dollar ships these ships cost a
00:41:45.280
billion dollars they don't like sailing ships or having their ships participate when you go up the
00:41:53.380
coast and you go through the strait and there are rockets flying over your head they want to protect
1.00
00:41:59.880
their billion dollar investment you wouldn't have oil for maybe years these are stupid people
0.99
00:42:07.100
but nobody was tougher than me nobody hit solomany you know when i hit solomany people
1.00
00:42:13.240
thought that was the biggest thing to happen in the middle east for 50 years that was the biggest
00:42:16.680
event he was the the he was the boss of iran and respected but but he was a mad genius he was a
00:42:26.040
genius the father of the roadside bomb when you see young men and in some cases women mostly men
00:42:34.040
walking around without legs without arms with the face that's been blown to smithereens it's
00:42:40.120
Soleimani 95% 96.2 they say or something 95% that was Soleimani did it happened to come from
0.96
00:42:50.760
Iran and I blew him up you remember that I blew him up in the valley of death he was the for
1.00
00:42:56.760
he was the first cutlet he actually he's the the way that he died is the reason why the Iranian
0.94
00:43:03.480
people refer to regime officials dying as cutlets that was the first time he got off his plane that
00:43:11.400
we followed him and and in all fairness because they've been wonderful to me israel but they
00:43:19.240
didn't want to do that attack they were all set the night before the attack then for me
00:43:23.080
they didn't want to do it so i had to make a decision i made the decision to do it
00:43:27.720
but they were it was a joint venture as we say in the real estate business that
00:43:33.740
was a joint venture between Israel and us we studied for a month we knew what
00:43:38.160
plane he was going to be on almost a month before he only traveled on
00:43:41.220
commercial airliners big ones with lots of people because he knew we wouldn't
00:43:44.940
shoot him down they're very smart but we knew he was going to be on that plane
00:43:49.020
followed him and then Israel informed me that they won't do it and I had to make
00:43:56.100
decision i had some very good generals and not the ones you see on television very good i want
00:44:02.420
to thank also pete hegseth and general raisin kane who's phenomenal okay these guys are phenomenal
00:44:09.060
they can't be better but guys one thing we need to be mindful of you know um whatever bigger plan
00:44:18.340
the united states and israel have with each other some of these statements will you know we already
00:44:25.460
have a growing anti-israeli movement growing inside the united states and the polls are not
00:44:31.960
going in our favor um and some of these statements will might be encouraging more of that especially
00:44:38.900
among people who look up to president trump so we need to become with our content and with our
00:44:44.480
narratives we need to double down on promoting israel and finding out the best ways to defend
00:44:49.920
israel in the united states so that's something that it's our responsibility to do so because
00:44:55.080
everybody in the world benefits from Israel because Israel kills not just its own enemies,
0.58
00:45:01.240
but also the whole world's enemies. So we need to work harder in making sure that
0.91
00:45:06.060
we have done our part in more Americans and more anywhere, I mean, everywhere in the world,
00:45:12.800
people better understand the contributions that Israel does to protect the whole world.
00:45:18.000
Some good generals, and I said to them, well, if Israel's not going to do it, we're all prepared.
00:45:23.760
do we do it do you like doing it or not sure you want to do it we can do it how well we'll do it
0.98
00:45:29.600
just as well or better do it ourselves we don't need anybody so we took out salamani one of the
00:45:36.800
biggest events to happen the middle east maybe ever but they say 50 years they say 100 years
00:45:44.320
i was with the prime minister of pakistan he said it's maybe the biggest event that
00:45:49.840
has ever taken places that nobody could believe it so that's when it started it didn't start like
00:45:55.200
three or four or five weeks ago and obama wouldn't do it what obama did was he did the j by the way
00:46:03.600
guys i do see a lot of you a lot of you in the chat are you know not happy uh with how things
00:46:09.120
are going with you know some of some of the decisions that president trump is making one
00:46:13.680
thing i want you to keep asking yourself is would it have been better if there was a democrat in
00:46:18.960
into Washington, D.C. Would it have been better if there was a Democrat in the White House?
00:46:23.740
And, you know, we're not always going to get everything the way that we want,
00:46:32.000
You see POA, he loaded up a plane with $1,700,000,000 in green cash from banks all over Washington,
00:46:41.900
Maryland, and Virginia. They were stripped of all their cash. They had no cash to do payrolls.
00:46:48.200
It all went into a Boeing 757, a wonderful plane, and they flew it to Iran.
00:46:58.900
Then they gave billions and billions of dollars after that.
00:47:02.900
And they got a deal that was a road to a nuclear weapon.
00:47:07.360
I'm allowed to get angry when I watch the Democrats.
00:47:14.260
you had a deal that was going to give them legally a nuclear weapon and if that happened
00:47:20.460
Israel would have been blown away and in all fairness to Bibi Netanyahu who happens to be
00:47:24.840
a good man gets a little excited sometimes but he happens to be a very good man we've had an
00:47:30.780
amazing so to be fair Israel is actually very conservative and you know when it comes to
0.95
00:47:36.000
defending themselves um they do their best to not escalate things right it is the enemies of
0.83
00:47:44.560
israel that are too excited about killing jews and israel always always just responds israel never
00:47:51.120
starts has never started war israel always responds to other people waging war against it
00:47:56.900
so there is no like excitement is other than the excitement to protect your civilians
00:48:04.200
using partnership he's been an amazing prime minister we have a little dispute over lebanon
00:48:11.200
i say you can do a little softer touch baby you don't have to knock down a building every time
00:48:16.040
somebody walks into it that's from hezbollah but it's been an amazing partnership but he will
0.92
00:48:22.180
again i i you know if there are bigger plans you know bigger behind the scenes uh reason for this
0.51
00:48:29.860
language you know I hope those bigger plans are worth it but just to be clear Israel does more
00:48:38.100
than Israel's military does more than any other military in the world to try to reduce damage to
00:48:45.140
civilians when the way the way the IDF operates they go above and beyond any other military on
00:48:51.460
the planet when it comes to try to reduce civilian damage to civilian life when they're taking out
00:48:57.900
their enemies in fact some people argue they do it so too much and they do it so much that so many
00:49:03.280
times terrorists manage to get away because of it say we're the big partner and he's the very
00:49:09.340
small partner and that's true so he came to the country and he begged barack hussein obama the
00:49:17.660
president not to do the jcpoa he said it could be the end of israel and it would have been if i
00:49:24.780
didn't come along. And Obama didn't listen to him. Bibi actually went to Congress and
00:49:30.940
pleaded with them. And he got nowhere. And they had this horrible deal that was horrible
00:49:40.160
By the way, guys, do you guys mind or not every time a statement is made about Israel?
00:49:47.800
Let me know in the chat if you think I'm doing it too much. I think, especially as an Iranian,
00:49:53.300
Given how much we're aligned with Israel and how much we owe Israel, I feel like it's my responsibility to always clarify, you know, always like if I think that clarification needs to be made and defend Israel, I see it as my duty to always come out and give the, you know, the defense for Israel.
00:50:13.300
But I just want to let you know, you know, I think, you know, as Iranians, the Israelis have always been there for us and we Iranians need to be there for Israel.
00:50:39.340
it was a short term deal, you know with countries
00:50:50.640
you need hundreds of years this was a short-term lease it expired long ago had i let it run it
00:50:57.120
expired you wouldn't have been around a lot of people wouldn't have been around but israel
0.99
00:51:00.960
would have been terminated i think the whole middle east would have been terminated you saw
00:51:04.160
that when everybody was shocked that all these missiles they were aimed at these different
00:51:09.360
places qatar saudi arabia uae think of it bahrain kuwait they got hit nobody thought
00:51:19.600
that was even i i didn't think it was going to happen they didn't think it was going to happen
0.71
00:51:24.000
they were going to take out the entire middle east including israel and if they had a nuclear
00:51:29.760
weapon they would have used it with it within moments after getting it so i made it very tough
00:51:35.920
for them when i terminated the barack hussein obama catastrophe jc peel yeah guys this is something
00:51:43.680
else we need to appreciate like people who forget um how much we owe president trump
00:51:49.360
um is a good reminder the removal of the jcpoa president trump tearing it apart that saved us
00:51:56.800
that saved saved us big time so don't you ever forget that like these are the things that we
00:52:01.520
need to be grateful for wait one of the worst deals nafta might have been worse but that was
00:52:06.960
worse economically this deal was really dangerous what he did he gave them everything including
00:52:13.440
a lot of money which we don't give them by the way just in case you have any question we'll be
00:52:18.160
giving this out so you can read it and you can see and it's a memorandum of understanding if
00:52:23.040
it doesn't get done in 60 days that's all right we go back to bombing you know i don't want to do
0.53
00:52:27.760
that because it's so good but uh we might have to because we're never going to let them have a
0.79
00:52:34.240
nuclear weapon but they've agreed not to and you'll see that very clearly in the agreement
00:52:38.640
But then the second phase of that was they were building, or they were enriching material, as they say.
00:52:47.580
They were enriching material under granite mountains.
00:52:50.920
Granite being, for those not in the construction business, granite being a very strong, the strongest stone.
00:52:58.260
It's not as pretty as marble, but it's much more, it's much stronger.
00:53:04.720
like the new granite i put on the stairs of the white house going to the oval office the black
00:53:10.080
granite it's rated one million years plus no marbles right at that marbles right at a hundred
1.00
00:53:16.720
years if it's if it's outside so these are granite mountains and the b2s came along and they hit those
0.89
00:53:24.960
air shafts in the dark at one o'clock in the morning with no moon they had a beam going right
00:53:30.160
up everywhere those guys did a job and then they were criticized by certain members of the press
00:53:34.400
like CNN, for possibly not doing that much damage. And it turned out that the damage
00:53:42.300
was far greater. Those mountains collapsed right on top of everything. Nobody's going
00:53:46.020
to get that for a long time. Unless we want to get it, we'll get it. But we're the only
00:53:50.720
one. Yeah. And United States and China can get it. This is why we can't allow the Islamic
00:53:58.500
Republic to just, we can't just leave the enriched uranium under the, on their own that
0.98
00:54:04.740
rubble. Because we might say like, well, the Islamic Republic can't get it out, but China
0.99
00:54:12.380
can get it out. And China is, the Islamic Republic is a proxy of the CCP. So that means the Islamic
0.95
00:54:19.020
Republic can't get it out with the help of the Chinese. So that's why we can't just leave it
1.00
00:54:22.720
there and think that they can't reach it anymore. They can, and they say China has the equipment
00:54:27.360
to get it and we have the equipment to get it oh there you go that's exactly what i just said i
00:54:31.920
didn't know he's going to say that and it's actually not valuable not a lot of value but
00:54:36.780
would like to get it psychologically but nobody's touching it we also have cameras so so there's
00:54:41.960
there's not a lot of value to the people who would get it out but it it does have a lot of
00:54:47.100
value to the islamic republic because for the americans and the chinese they already have
0.86
00:54:51.400
nuclear bombs so this is going to be like not that much work like it's worth nothing but for
0.87
00:54:56.900
the islamic republic that enriched uranium is everything is basically their main deterrence
0.75
00:55:02.000
capability right so for for somebody who has a tank and a fighter jet and an rpg um maybe like
0.96
00:55:10.580
a handgun is worth not that much but for somebody who is completely disarmed a handgun is the
0.57
00:55:17.320
difference between life and death so for the islamic republic is worth it's worth everything
00:55:23.860
What Space Force is, we have the best, we have the greatest military in the world, by the way.
00:55:28.500
But I'm proud of Space Force because I started it.
00:55:30.800
We have Space Force cameras on every single door, every, well, there are no doors.
00:55:37.980
But every area of that, if somebody walks in and he's got a badge with his name on it, like Mohammed something, which is about a 50-50 guess, Mohammed something, they can tell the name.
00:56:19.120
bombers or if it wasn't successful they would have had a nuclear weapon a nuclear bomb at a
00:56:24.140
very high level not the highest but it would have been a very high level we have much bigger
0.93
00:56:29.420
but we hope that we're never going to have to use it we have the most russia has second
00:56:34.880
china is very far behind but going to catch up unfortunately you know they're catching up
00:56:40.940
but we have the most we have the most powerful but we also have the most but russia is not far
00:56:47.660
behind. And then you have China in third place, but within five years, they'll be probably even.
00:56:53.660
And we ought to make a denuclearization deal. It'd be so great. We don't need all of that.
0.93
00:57:00.620
We don't need to be able to blow up the whole world 300 times over. It's terrible. Really,
00:57:07.980
if we could do a denuclearization deal, I'd love it. And one of those two is very willing.
00:57:13.420
This has been something President Trump cares about the most. President Trump
00:57:16.940
really really wants a world with that nuclear weapon like a whole world with that nuclear
00:57:21.180
weapons to do it i will tell you but the other one is less willing to do it and you need all of
00:57:26.460
them so the deal we reached with iran on sunday will be signed shortly tomorrow maybe the next
00:57:35.020
day i think you know subject deals all my my whole life is all about deals that's all i ever did is
00:57:40.460
make deals and crazy things happen with deals i've gone into deals where it's a guarantee
00:57:48.860
no way it can not be signed and it doesn't get signed and i've gone into deals that you have no
00:57:53.820
chance of making and they go like nothing so but we're going to uh most likely sign a deal they
00:58:00.620
want to say guaranteed that's pretty big deal and they've been acting very appropriately they took
00:58:09.420
a big two hits last week those were two very big hits so importantly iran has agreed that they will
00:58:17.260
neither produce nor procure a nuclear weapon neither produce because originally they said
00:58:23.820
they talked about that that they will not develop a nuclear weapon and some people found it okay
00:58:29.500
these guys didn't in all fairness but some people but i didn't like it said it won't develop i said
00:58:34.060
what happens if they should buy i don't know it's pretty very dangerous for somebody to sell because
00:58:38.940
whoever sells them a nuclear weapon will get nuked themselves if they sold a nuclear weapon
00:58:45.100
only a few they could do it they would be nuked they wouldn't have that country loan
00:58:49.580
so it's a very dangerous thing for somebody to do but i wanted it in there so it's develop
00:58:55.820
procure buy anything and you'll see that when you see the agreement but it's appropriate that we
00:59:03.180
release the agreement so so when we see that uh when we see the mou we have to look at the ability
0.89
00:59:09.740
to enrich because when it comes to you know having nuclear weapons we already like the islamic
00:59:17.820
republic already claimed that they're never going to have a nuclear weapon before okay so i mean we
0.93
00:59:24.060
don't trust the islamic republic and what they say so that them agreeing to never having a nuclear
0.92
00:59:29.980
weapon is not that big of a deal given that they have always been saying that like i mean guys
0.94
00:59:36.540
do they say that they had a fatwa by ali khamenei against the nuclear weapon and we didn't take that
00:59:41.500
seriously so why would we take this seriously the part that we need to pay attention to in the mou
00:59:48.780
is what does it say about the enriched uranium and their ability to enrich uranium and how would
00:59:54.780
that be verified like we how would it be verified like who is going to go into iran and enforce
01:00:02.540
the lack of access to enriched uranium by the islamic republic right so there is no uh once
01:00:08.700
the mou is out every we have to basically see what the verification process is and we did send
01:00:14.620
a copy to israel by the way they've been a good partner again i think they could do better with
01:00:22.460
respect to hezbollah i'm not saying they shouldn't protect themselves to to be okay again i don't
01:00:29.180
know whatever you know some people are saying this is a long-term uh you know 5d chess move by
01:00:34.620
president trump whatever that is um that aside nobody could for the sake of people who are just
01:00:42.380
listening to what is being heard here you know whether there is a longer term plan or this is
01:00:48.140
like a good cop bad cop thing or whatever i'm just going to clarify nobody nobody could deal
01:00:54.860
with hezbollah better than israel not even close so yeah they've been a good partner again
01:01:04.700
i think they could do better with respect to hezbollah there is no there is no better than
01:01:10.380
israel with regards to hezbollah i'm not saying they shouldn't protect themselves i'm saying
01:01:16.140
when two drones are shot into the desert and drop harmlessly you don't have to knock down buildings
01:01:22.780
in beirut they could be if if there are terrorists and if there are terrorists in buildings
01:01:29.500
who kill israelis then knock those buildings out because those buildings does not are less
01:01:35.820
valuable than the lives of the israelis that those terrorists take hey better and frankly
01:01:41.420
they could do a better job uh i i love them as a partner they were terrific but they could do a
0.95
01:01:48.300
much better job with hezbollah on that i don't think they're doing well and i feel i mean again
01:01:55.020
israel is doing the best against hezbollah very bad for lebanon lebanon's been you know it was a
01:02:01.100
great culture it was a great they had the professors the doctors the lawyers it was an incredible
01:02:05.980
culture maybe the highest in the middle east for years and years centuries and for the last
01:02:12.940
50 60 years they have been just trashed they have been they have been living in hell so
0.67
01:02:20.860
they'll work closely with us to turn over the so-called enriched material that's very deep
01:02:28.220
bowels of the earth very deep nobody can get it so it's not important that we do it quickly but
01:02:36.680
But in the meantime, we have cameras on every inch of it.
01:02:40.440
And if they do, we'll hit them with patriots, that's all.
0.86
01:02:46.400
Technical discussions on the removal of all stockpiles of enriched materials
01:02:54.020
And unlike Barack Hussein Obama, who sent Iran pallets of cash
01:03:01.820
they'll have to get based on merit and it won't be from us we don't have to give them anything
01:03:06.580
but some people may want to invest like what are you going to do say you can never
01:03:10.760
ever invest in a country i mean it's pretty tough so we're talking about the 300 billion dollars the
01:03:18.680
you know the fake news that united states is giving 300 billion dollars to the islamic republic
01:03:23.320
that is not what it's about it's going to be a fund that private companies apparently could
01:03:31.820
go and invest in Iran if the Islamic Republic opens its economy.
01:03:38.600
That's what President Trump has been explaining, and J.D. Vance has been explaining as well.
01:03:44.840
So if the Islamic Republic opens its economy, there will be a fund with the target of $300 billion,
01:03:53.840
where private companies, Arab states around the Persian Gulf could get involved with,
01:03:59.680
China, they're saying they could get involved with, apparently, and they could go invest in Iran.
01:04:05.040
That's what they're offering to the Islamic Republic in exchange for opening its economy.
01:04:12.520
And I'm not going to go into the details of that, you know, and the consequences of that to the IRGC and the Iranian people right now.
01:04:18.920
If you guys want to talk about it, we're going to talk about it later in the discussion group because I want to listen to more of this.
01:04:24.160
I don't mind being tough, but it's pretty crazy.
01:04:26.640
You can invest in a country. You can invest in any country you want, but you can't invest there.
01:04:31.500
Well, they need investment because we did a trillion and a half, maybe two trillion dollars worth of damage.
01:04:38.740
So somebody is going to have to help them out. There's no guarantee about helping them out and could be their neighbors will help them out a little bit.
01:04:46.860
I don't know. But it's a lot of money. Almost nobody has that kind of money.
01:04:51.280
That's the kind of damage that was done. But we're not investing any money.
01:04:54.860
there was a fake story there was a fake news story that got a man a person a good person
01:05:01.820
jd made a statement it was a perfect statement and they reported it in a very strange way but
01:05:08.060
that's because that's why it's fake news i guess so we don't give them money we don't give them any
01:05:13.980
of that and what happens is with time if they behave if they be a a citizen of the world a
01:05:22.620
reasonable citizen of the world. And I think this group, again, I think I didn't do this for regime
01:05:27.080
change, but I think this group is regime change. So again, just clarification, this is not regime
01:05:35.460
change. I understand, you know, maybe President Trump is saying this for mind games with the
01:05:40.120
Islamic Republic and all that. But I do need to clarify every time this is said, no regime change
01:05:44.920
has happened in Iran. Hey, the first group is dead. One little morning having breakfast, the
01:05:52.020
whole group they thought they'd never be caught because we never bombed during breakfast but we
0.98
01:05:57.540
bombed and they all 88 people and i'm not proud of that at all but the second group came in and
01:06:04.820
they were very unreasonable too and they were all gone they were all gone and then the third group
01:06:10.740
we've been dealing with them a couple couple left this planet but we've been dealing with them and
01:06:16.420
again they've been fine i mean i've had a lot easier i've had some easier ones they're tough
01:06:23.860
they're smart so somebody some people are attacking me in the chat saying i mean what mind games wake
01:06:28.660
wake up and stuff like that i i'm not going over that i'm just saying whether you believe in it
01:06:33.060
or not i'm just clarifying what's actually happened maritime traffic through the straight
01:06:39.220
of our moves has already increased very substantially and the normal flow of energy
01:06:45.540
will resume in the coming days and and trillions of dollars will be made by the world and the stock
01:06:52.100
market will i believe continue to rise the only difference is that a player that's very volatile
01:06:59.780
very tough very smart frankly you know they have in one way a primitive culture but it's also a
01:07:05.700
genius primitive culture they're very smart people very good negotiators so guys some people in the
01:07:13.780
chat are saying that you know oh no i can't if i disagree with president trump i'm gonna get banned
01:07:18.580
we're not gonna ban you for disagreeing with president trump okay so away so rather than
01:07:27.940
possibly going into a depression rather than having your favorite president be herbert hoover
01:07:40.880
I wouldn't have preferred, you know, plenty I wouldn't prefer.
01:07:43.940
But the one I always thought of, Herbert Hoover, and he caused it.
01:07:47.680
He raised taxes too fast, and he raised interest rates too fast, all at the same time.
01:08:02.800
In fact, we just gave you the largest tax decrease, largest tax cut in the history of our country.
01:08:08.400
So we'll be working on a parallel effort with the Gulf nations to address non-nuclear issues.
01:08:18.120
Such as the conventional ballistic missiles, which we'll be talking about and support.
01:08:23.240
I mean, they have to have some because other people have some.
01:08:41.500
Am I going to let Saudi Arabia have missiles, but they can't have them?
01:08:47.660
Wait, Saudi Arabia have missiles, but not the Islamic Republic?
01:08:56.440
you know they are dirka dirka jihadi islamic but they're but they don't have an expansionist policy
01:09:03.720
um trying to bring out and i don't know like create an empire in the middle east and destroy
01:09:10.180
the united states they you shouldn't give them one and i have guys i like some of these guys
01:09:16.300
but i don't think this i don't think they're smart sir you shouldn't let them have any missile
01:09:26.200
Are I going to let Saudi Arabia have missiles, but they can't have them?
01:09:35.060
Yeah, I mean, the difference is that Saudi Arabia is not threatening Europe and United States with its missiles.
01:09:44.540
Missiles, they hurt a little location, but they don't blow up the planet.
01:09:49.200
so the gulf nations will address the non-nuclear issues as persian gulf nations and also the
0.64
01:09:56.780
the issue with missiles guys is that if the islamic republic gets to a number of
01:10:01.240
30 000 ballistic missiles the deterrence capability of the islamic republic will be
0.92
01:10:06.300
so high that that israel and other countries would not ever consider attacking it the way
0.89
01:10:14.820
that they did with Operation Epic Fury and Roaring Lions ever again.
0.64
01:10:20.640
So the missiles are, it is very important, like beyond the nuclear,
0.97
01:10:24.480
it is very important to stop the Islamic Republic to get to that number of ballistic missiles.
0.99
01:10:30.720
So the missiles are really, really important.
0.99
01:10:34.000
The reason why the missiles don't do much of a damage from the Islamic Republic
0.96
01:10:37.960
is because they didn't reach the volume that they needed to.
0.93
01:10:40.360
But if they ever get to 30,000, then they're going to have a very strong deterrence capability and they're going to feel a lot more confident with their terrorist agenda and their expansionist policies.
01:10:54.300
We'll be talking about the ballistic missiles and we'll talk also about the terrorist proxies that they have that we don't want that to happen.
0.51
01:11:04.300
But I want to thank our partners in both Pakistan and Qatar. These people work so hard.
01:11:14.960
In the case of Qatar, they were sort of at odds.
01:11:21.740
When I flew from there, from that location to Saudi Arabia,
01:11:26.460
I'd fly for 40 minutes and I'd fly to UAE for 40 minutes
01:11:37.420
and he's fantastic and the son is gonna be great.
01:11:40.360
you're going to be great the crown prince and muhammad at ua is an incredible warrior he was
01:11:46.760
dropping bombs last week i said who the hell's dropping all those bombs it was ua
01:11:52.280
he's a good fighter muhammad but every administration for decades has sought to
01:11:57.640
get iran to relinquish its nuclear ambitions but the threat only got bigger the words got bigger
01:12:02.760
and bigger and stronger and bigger and nothing ever happened and iran got stronger and tougher
01:12:10.360
If we didn't blow them up the first time and then blow out those weapons, they would have been unstoppable.
01:12:16.480
This should have done what I'm doing and what I did should have been done years ago.
01:12:21.240
Would have been much easier, much less firepower.
01:12:25.480
But it wasn't. And again, I want to thank all those countries.
01:12:32.800
Yay. So obviously the breakthrough would not have been possible without the unprecedented pressure the United States put on the regime.
01:12:40.360
over the past year and a half. But again, it started a long time ago. It started with the
01:12:44.480
death of Soleimani. That was a big deal. No president in history has ever been tougher
01:12:52.720
on Iran than I have, and they know that. And by the way, if they don't honor the agreement,
0.53
01:12:58.520
some things aren't even mentioned in the agreement. It's a memorandum of understanding,
01:13:01.840
but we have an understanding of certain things without writing it. And if they don't honor that,
01:13:08.300
will probably go back to bombing them until they honor it you know yeah this is a good reminder to
01:13:14.780
people who are like oh my god this is a bad deal there is no deal this is a memorandum of
0.99
01:13:20.220
understanding and it's based on observing the islamic republic's behavior and it's really easy
0.91
01:13:25.660
for united states to just go back and bomb the crap out out of them if the islamic republic
0.90
01:13:31.820
misbehaves and doesn't do what the united states wants them to do it's amazing what bombs can do
0.99
01:13:36.380
true so i say it the obama deal was a road to a nuclear weapon and that's cool i think i managed
01:13:47.660
to make you know people you know i'm we the way that we i'm guys the way i'm talking about this
01:13:54.620
is is trying to be clear about israel be clear about the what the what is what description of
01:14:01.420
what's happening about Iran is true and what's not without causing division among us. So that's
01:14:09.020
the way I'm talking. The Trump deal was a wall for a nuclear weapon that the nuclear weapon
01:14:16.940
could not get through. Nobody's going to get through it. We built a wall. They weren't going
01:14:21.260
to have it. And that's what we have right now. And it says very clearly, the most important clause to
01:14:27.180
me too number one the straight opens but that's much less important than the other clause close
01:14:32.300
number whatever five eight is a very strong statement that they will never have a nuclear
01:14:38.540
weapon and it doesn't say they'll have one in five years or 10 years or 20 years with obama
01:14:45.980
they were able to enrich very quickly this agreement now provides a run with a historic
01:14:52.060
opportunity if they follow the path of cooperation will have opened for them their country will have
01:14:58.140
a chance to survive now think of it you know they have 91 million people people want me to bomb the
01:15:05.660
bridges why don't i bomb i already did because you know they went back on one of their promises and i
01:15:10.860
bombed their biggest bridge the equivalent of the george that was the george washington bridge of
0.75
01:15:15.660
Iran. We bombed that bridge. You saw that. One quick strike by an F-22, the most beautiful
0.78
01:15:24.360
fighter jet ever made, by the way. In fact, we're ordering some more of them. We're bringing
01:15:29.160
it out because it's so effective. It's incredible. It's incredible. Look, we have the greatest
01:15:34.880
military in the world. Those B-2 bombers are unbelievable. Who would have thought they
01:15:39.380
could handle? Each had two because the flight was so long, but they handled three of the
01:15:44.000
biggest, heaviest bombs, hundreds of thousands of pounds, and they handle them like they're nothing.
01:15:48.920
It's amazing. And also, they're undetectable. They flew into Iran. Totally, think of it,
01:15:55.720
totally undetected. Now, Iran's waiting for them. They're waiting for them. And they never saw them.
0.99
01:16:02.440
One o'clock in the morning. They never saw them. They're stealth. And we just ordered 22 more.
01:16:08.320
the newer upgraded version which i guess is better i don't know how you get better
01:16:14.140
but as i expressed to the world leaders here this week it's my hope that the peace agreement will be
01:16:21.000
the beginning of a much larger deal all across the middle east we're very close look at the job
01:16:27.060
we've done in gaza look at hamas hamas has been very silent you haven't read anything about hamas
01:16:33.220
we're trying yeah because guys because israel has created a buffer zone in gaza you know separating
01:16:40.200
israeli citizens from hamas they're in the process of creating a buffer zone in lebanon
01:16:45.040
they're also they also created a buffer zone in syria fully this is goes this goes a lot this is
01:16:52.100
a great progress for protecting israeli citizens if israel manages to maintain these buffer zones
01:16:58.820
everywhere the israelis are going to be a lot more secure they get them unarmed you know they grew up
01:17:05.140
with a machine gun in their hand i think they actually when they were born they came out with
01:17:10.740
a machine gun in their hand so it's not the easiest thing but they've they've actually
01:17:15.860
behaved pretty well considering this was not the lifestyle that they were taught to have
01:17:21.140
but including an end to all iranian aggression they're not going to be iranian aggression
01:17:30.340
So the Lebanon piece is something we'll have to work on a little bit.
01:17:34.720
It's a very small piece of the puzzle, actually,
0.94
01:17:42.300
That's where the money is, where the power was.
0.99
01:17:47.120
and we've got to get that done one way or the other.
1.00
01:17:54.060
uh syria would love to do it i was very israel no no israel is doing already better than anybody
01:18:02.040
could do and syria would not be able to do anything comparable to what israel can do
01:18:07.360
very responsible for the gentleman that's syria that's now the president of syria he's done a
01:18:13.020
tremendous job he's put that country together in a year so president trump is talking about uh
01:18:18.220
This is the guy who used to be both Al-Qaeda and ISIS, and Israelis don't trust this guy.
01:18:29.220
And that Syria, that's now the president of Syria, he's done a tremendous job.
01:18:33.220
He's put that country together in a year and a half.
01:18:36.220
Sort of like our country, a year and a half is pretty similar size.
01:18:39.220
They said, please don't put him there. He's a very violent man.
01:18:55.600
But he wouldn't knock down buildings every time he hears there's somebody.
01:19:03.140
Again, I don't know whatever, you know, you've got, again, guys,
01:19:06.440
it's a good cop, bad cop, five reaches, you know,
0.61
01:19:09.020
Whatever the overall longer term plan for what President Trump is saying, you know, that aside, I just want to clarify that a former Al-Qaeda leader is not going to be nicer to civilians than the most moral army in the world, which is the IDF, right?
01:19:29.900
um that and also if some of you say well that's the point they could go and
01:19:37.320
be more brutal and get the job done faster nobody will be able to compare like nobody
01:19:45.380
would be as effective not even close nobody would be one person as effective as the idf against
0.84
01:19:53.620
terrorists like it's not even they don't even have a chance whatever israel can do that's the
0.81
01:20:01.060
max you could get against in the middle east what israel does is the best that you get nobody can
0.82
01:20:07.780
match that especially a leader of a country that is falling like is it's even a challenge to keep
0.62
01:20:13.140
the country together um that doesn't even represent with a leader that doesn't even
01:20:19.720
represents his own people with very little military power that is only in power because
01:20:26.680
it's being supported by turkey so yeah i don't and and it and also cannot be trusted it's true
01:20:33.860
that um jolani al-shara is an enemy of the islamic republic and hezbollah and for now
01:20:42.300
they have put aside their anti-israeli agenda but at the end of the day these are jihadis
0.70
01:20:49.320
So I know it's fun to watch Durqa fight Durqa, but allowing them into, you know, Israel is never going to trust any of these people to do the job that needs to get done.
0.85
01:21:06.140
And they're not going to, they shouldn't, like Israel, it's unreasonable to expect Israel leave southern Lebanon and just rely on these terrorists to basically kill each other.
0.91
01:21:17.040
so just one again i know a lot of you are going to say like well armin he's saying this because
01:21:22.540
this and this and that okay whatever that is i'm just want to make it clear that if you care about
01:21:28.280
civilian lives then israel does the best job and you can't rely on an al-qaeda an isis and al-qaeda
01:21:36.220
leader to come in and do a better job with both killing hezbollah and also protecting civilian
01:21:41.960
lives, more than the IDF, which is the most moral army on the planet.
01:21:46.400
Good job. He'd love to go on it. You know, Hezbollah is an enemy of his, and he'd go on it,
01:21:52.340
but he wouldn't knock down buildings every time he hears there's somebody. He'd just go and get
0.95
01:21:57.860
them with precision. But I don't know that people want that. Maybe they don't. Maybe Lebanon doesn't.
01:22:04.320
We have to be guided a little bit by Lebanon. And by the way, the president is going to be coming,
0.98
01:22:08.940
prime minister president going to be coming over to see us very shortly over the next week or two
01:22:14.780
good man is you know man is living what a tough life he's got also guys something else whatever
01:22:22.240
president trump's reasons are for saying these things and there might be good reasons i don't
01:22:28.540
know if you guys know you're smarter than me but whatever his reasons might be this the the these
01:22:35.940
statements will do damage to Israel's standing in the United States, especially among MAGA.
01:22:43.940
So that means that our responsibility is to go work double time on defending Israel in
01:22:52.560
He's got tough groups of people, and it's amazing, amazing there is a Lebanon with all
01:23:01.900
Treated worse than just about, I think, anybody.
01:23:07.260
So the expansion of the Abraham Accords is the other thing that we hope we're going to get.
0.99
01:23:12.120
And I think Saudi Arabia, if they lead the way, they'd be doing themselves a big favor.
0.99
01:23:17.080
Because everybody that's in it, the UAE went in right from the beginning.
01:23:26.100
They were all afraid of, everybody was afraid of Iran.
01:23:29.160
and that's why we ended up with the original members but then when the election was rigged
0.59
01:23:36.260
that's right and i wasn't here at all nobody cared about anything the country went to hell in every
0.55
01:23:43.060
way that was the least of it middle east was the least of the country went to hell allowing 25
0.54
01:23:49.080
million people into the country unchecked and unvetted many of them criminals many of the
0.98
01:23:55.940
murderers, 11,888 murderers allowed into our country. So this was the least of it. But
01:24:03.580
the past two days have also provided an opportunity to discuss a number of other key issues with
01:24:08.720
members of the G7 and our partners. Yesterday morning, we had a productive conversation
01:24:13.960
on the war in Ukraine. I spoke with President Putin. I spoke with President Zelensky, and
01:24:20.960
he was he was there and president putin i spoke over the phone with and something's gonna happen
01:24:26.960
it was a lot of people a lot of soldiers losing soldiers both are losing a lot russia's losing
01:24:32.960
more because they're the offensive ones and when you're offensive in war you lose more
01:24:38.720
pretty simple but i provided an update on my call sunday with president putin and
01:24:44.880
expressed my continued hope we had a very good conversation with president putin and a very very
01:24:50.000
good conversation with president zelinski i think they both want to do something they just don't
01:24:54.720
know how to do it they want to do it they just don't know how in our session yesterday afternoon
01:25:02.880
on international partnerships i offered an update on how the united another clarification president
01:25:08.640
putin wants to take over eastern europe and all of ukraine and he's never going to stop until he gets
01:25:15.940
The state is leading the world and responding to the Ebola outbreak in Africa,
01:25:21.220
sending $375 million in aid so far to help stop and contain the crisis at its source.
01:25:28.360
And we've done great with the president of a couple of presidents came over, by the way,
01:25:35.040
from African nations, and they were so happy with what we did.
01:25:40.160
but where it's unfair is we gave 375 million the rest of the world gave essentially nothing maybe
01:25:48.320
a couple of bucks but nothing and they were all saying thank you so much and i think they've done
01:25:54.560
a good job it's uh it's a terrible thing ebola is a a terrible thing that's an unbelievable one
01:26:03.120
And fortunately, it's not like COVID where it's that easy to spread around, but it's rough.
01:26:12.360
We've moved people to certain quarantines, certain locations.
01:26:16.720
But today we also had excellent meetings on the economy and artificial intelligence, which is amazing what's going on with that.
01:26:32.520
But we're leading China, we're leading the world on that.
01:26:35.480
We're allowing them to do their own electric plants
01:26:38.680
because they need, as an example, those buildings are so big.
01:26:42.140
And they're not taking the community's electricity.
01:26:54.820
And they've come up with plants that nobody's ever seen anything like.
01:27:00.940
so they're actually building electric plants so because otherwise they could
01:27:06.340
never build a building because the grid is old and tired and broken and a mess
01:27:10.660
so they're building it and they're going to sell there very cheaply they're going
01:27:14.200
to sell their additional their extra electricity into the grid so we take
01:27:19.240
care of a lot of things like California which doesn't have nearly enough
01:27:23.500
electricity they don't know what they're doing there and instead of having
01:27:27.940
blackouts and brownouts they'll be able not to we found a great deal of unity here at the g7 and we
01:27:34.340
signed a declaration on illegal immigration the first time ever for a g7 statement they did a
0.99
01:27:41.860
beautiful statement we signed other agreements to stop up the to step up and to really coordinate
01:27:48.660
and spend a lot of time coordinating drug trafficking and stopping of drug trafficking
01:27:54.820
which is crazy comes through mexico comes through the southern border the little that comes through
01:28:00.260
they find a way they put it their genius if they would use that genius for for good they'd be very
01:28:06.500
rich people they have it in engines they have it in hubcaps they have it in areas you wouldn't even
01:28:11.860
believe they have it in the structures of cars most incredible thing but we've done a great job
01:28:18.580
on it we have uh drugs coming through the border down 61 drugs coming through water the sea ocean
01:28:28.420
sea gulf down uh 97.2 that's the ones that get hit just like we hit the iranian mine sweepers and
01:28:40.980
mine droppers they call them they dropped who would have 28 mine droppers who who has 28 mine
01:28:46.660
droppers they actually had them but they don't have many more we hit them just like we hit the
01:28:51.380
drug dealers but drugs are down by water 97 and over 60 percent they're down and now we're going
0.95
01:29:00.020
to go and focus on the land they come through mexico mexico has lost control of their country
01:29:06.020
the cartels run mexico and it's sad and the president's a very good woman but she's a very
01:29:13.460
scared woman the drug cartels are totally running mexico it's not even close we agreed to accelerate
01:29:21.860
our efforts to secure our critical minerals and rare earth supply chains where we have great
01:29:26.340
companies really going to town we're going to give everybody a big run because we do it better than
01:29:31.940
and we had to get motivated the g7 also agreed the united states new approach to international
01:29:38.580
development based on the private sector investment is working fast forward to the q a part yep
01:29:53.380
should be shortly after this right about the one hour mark
01:30:01.300
hope you're going to get to see it because so again nope
01:30:04.420
they take good stories about me the first i know the first question was about iran
01:30:12.060
when he gets to the q a clarify something you said just there you go yeah it's it's there
01:30:18.060
should be able i see this guy's standing so a little bit before here
01:30:24.180
they are yes oh no it's even before here so that wasn't it actually it was before that
01:30:30.640
and we'll go here we totally concede we totally give up this war is over we have failed the new
01:30:37.040
york times and cnn and a couple of others they're not all that having to answer this
01:30:45.040
300 million dollar fund it's only 300 billion a nice dinner but i'm interested to see it i love
01:30:53.040
after this alliance and we're celebrating that a little bit tonight they'll have
01:30:56.720
and we'll be talking about the United States is not going to go back a little bit Peter
01:31:05.960
Bonjour sure you've been clear President Trump the United States is not going to directly pay
01:31:15.320
Iran but the U.S. is going to let the Iranians start making billions of dollars selling oil
01:31:23.300
accessing this reconstruction fund? Only if they're doing things right.
01:31:27.640
Only if, Peter, only if, we're not doing anything. We're not putting up money. Only if they're doing
01:31:34.520
things right. If they're doing things right, if people want to invest, they can invest.
01:31:39.060
But they have this $300 million fund. It's only $300 billion fund. It's only if they're doing
01:31:46.620
things right. Remember this also, when you talk about billions of dollars, they've had much more
01:31:52.820
than a trillion dollars worth of damage done. They got a long way. There'll be 15 to 20 years
01:31:58.080
to rebuild what they have right now. So they have to behave themselves. If they're not behaving,
01:32:04.500
they get hit again. You know, they'll be hit again because we can do it very easily. It's
01:32:08.820
going to take a long way for them to build back their anti-aircraft stuff. It's going to take,
01:32:13.160
and you know, the other thing I want to thank China, President Xi, I was with him,
01:32:17.920
and he stayed neutral totally neutral and i appreciate it and i was one again i know that
01:32:26.160
president trump might have his own reasons for what he's saying that um you know whatever
01:32:31.780
5d chest that is being again i don't know what that is but just to clarify uh the ccp china
01:32:38.400
was not neutral in fact the plane the american plane that went down and the two pilots that were
01:33:15.240
were supposed to kill Israelis and Americans
0.76
01:33:21.800
They were helping the Islamic Republic throughout this.
01:33:41.920
Putin was sending drone components through the Caspian Sea to the Islamic Republic.
01:33:48.180
So China was sending missile components through land routes to the Islamic Republic
01:33:51.800
and also manpads that shot down the American plane.
01:33:54.760
And Putin was sending drone components through the Caspian Sea.
01:34:01.660
They could have made it much more difficult for us.
01:34:04.740
And I want to say it, you know, somebody would say, oh, that's terrible.
01:34:10.640
Well, let me tell you, I had a long talk with him.
01:34:13.780
You know, they have shoulder weapons to knock down airplanes.
01:34:16.860
It's not like the real deal, but they're accurate.
01:34:21.120
I said I would really appreciate you're not giving or selling any of that stuff to Iran.
01:34:37.980
I just want to thank them because they made it a lot better.
01:34:42.820
Can you explain, though, what the difference is between giving Iran U.S. dollars and unfreezing U.S. dollars?
01:34:51.440
Well, the unfreezing, it's an easy one to answer.
0.50
01:34:54.640
We have taken a lot of their money, and we have their money.
01:34:59.620
We have taken their money. It's not our money. It's their money.
01:35:10.640
nobody would ever invest in the dollar again.
0.55
01:35:13.040
So again, clarifying that those are the Iranian people's money.
01:35:19.100
So yes, the Americans do have to give it back,
0.60
01:35:22.540
but they will have to give it back to the Iranian people,
0.52
01:35:33.420
let's say running people's money money and we have their money we have u.s dollars well the
01:35:39.920
unfreezing is an easy one to answer uh we have taken a lot of their money and we have their
01:35:47.380
money we have taken their money it's not our money it's their money and we froze it at a certain
01:35:54.020
point in time i guess we're gonna have to give it back you know if we did so just to be clear like
01:35:59.400
When Obama released money to the Islamic Republic, and that's why we criticized the JCPOA, that
01:36:08.200
They were saying that we're not actually giving them any money.
01:36:10.300
We're basically releasing their own money back to them.
0.83
01:36:13.300
And we were attacking President Obama back then because that money belonged to the Iranian
01:36:20.600
Nobody would ever invest in the dollar again if you took their money.
01:36:28.140
I said to Scott, Scott, why don't we keep their money?
01:36:35.300
But, you know, people from lots of nations, some nations we don't agree with,
01:36:40.260
they have their money, the dollars become very strong under me.
01:36:44.420
And they don't want to have a little conflict with somebody
01:36:47.940
and end up having the United States just take their money.
01:36:51.520
So if you do that, you really don't have a system.
01:36:55.720
A wise man once said in January of 2020, Iran never won a war, but never lost a negotiation.
01:37:16.020
So how do you go back to the United States and convince a skeptical American public that this deal is a win?
01:37:25.720
It's very tough because I know that no matter what, if I would go, by the way, if I'd go another three or four weeks,
01:37:33.440
those same people that are critical would say, he went too long, he should have done, you know, no matter what.
01:37:38.080
If they raised the white flag of surrender, and if they said, praise be to Allah, Donald Trump is the greatest president ever.
01:37:48.240
We totally concede. We totally give up. This war is over. We have failed.
01:37:52.280
the New York Times and CNN and a couple of others, they're not all that dishonest. They'd say
01:37:57.740
Iran had a great victory, okay? And they practically do that. You know, it's amazing
0.99
01:38:03.620
when we knocked out their last year, they had 159 ships. When we knocked out the last ship,
01:38:08.580
the Times refused to do a story on it. They said, why wouldn't you? They don't have a Navy
01:38:12.880
and you don't want to do a story on it. They don't have an Air Force. You don't want to do a story.
01:38:20.060
And that's why they're all doing so badly, because they lost credibility.
01:38:23.860
When I went in a landslide and I had 93% bad press,
01:38:28.220
they'd take good stories about me and make them bad.
01:38:31.200
But the only reason that happened is because the media has so little credibility
01:38:40.800
93% of the stories on network, ABC is horrible.
01:38:45.680
I think ABC is the worst. NBC is terrible. And CBS is terrible. CNN, obviously. And I never get
01:38:54.240
good stories. No matter what I do, I could do the greatest thing. I won't get good stories on this.
01:38:59.020
I'll get it from fair media. I'll get it from all over the world. They're writing good.
01:39:03.360
But no matter what I do, I'm going to get bad press. I know that. Now, if I did the opposite,
01:39:08.520
if I went out and continued to bomb them for another floor, just bomb the hell out of them,
0.94
01:39:12.880
I get bad press on that. No, there's nothing I can do. But what this does is it allows the ships to
0.98
01:39:19.660
go. If we keep bombing, those ships won't be going. And you're talking about 500, 600, 700
01:39:26.680
million dollars a day. It's a lot of money, a lot of money. That's why the world is okay. It's
01:39:33.000
liquid. It's fine. Also, we run out of reserves in about four weeks. You know, there are reserves
01:39:37.780
all over the world and we would really run out. And there'll be a time when you wouldn't be able
01:39:41.980
to get it and you want to see bedlam so for all those so-called geniuses that want to show me how
01:39:47.220
smart they are ask them why didn't they blow up general soleimani ask that of the general and
01:39:54.040
a couple of other people that i like very much but boy are they wrong go ahead uh how about you
01:40:01.160
thank you peter i'd give you more peter but people say i like you too much thank you mr president
01:40:05.600
bonsoir you know he told me that first day in office he asked me like seven questions i answered
01:40:11.880
all of them is this true he said he just answered more questions in one meeting than joe biden did
01:40:19.160
in four years okay you know i'm not going to get you in trouble but that's what you said go ahead
01:40:25.160
in the art of the deal you write about the importance of leverage obviously you have
01:40:29.400
a lot of leverage when it comes to iran whether tremendously or through economic sanctions what
01:40:35.000
leverage sir do you have when it comes to israel and hezbollah to ensure that they abide by the
01:40:40.680
the ceasefire. Well, I think we have leverage just by the fact that we really have Iran now has to
0.93
01:40:45.820
be good. They have to behave and we might help. That's a much smaller conflict. It's a conflict
0.97
01:40:52.680
that should be able to be over with. I'm surprised it's taken so long and it's a much smaller, but
01:40:58.720
we have a lot of leverage. We have, look, we have the greatest military anywhere in the world.
01:41:02.960
We have the strongest, most powerful. Look at the blockade. By the way, the blockade was more
01:41:08.560
impactful than all of the bombing raids where we dropped a billion dollars worth of bombs on
01:41:14.360
Iran. The blockade was so incredible. The naval blockade. The admiral, the whole thing. Not one
0.70
01:41:22.500
ship got through. That meant no money got through. They were dying. They had no money.
01:41:26.540
They have inflation that's 250 or 300 percent. They have no money. We have tremendous leverage.
01:41:32.120
We have the leverage of the economy as an example. We'll get that done. That's a small one.
01:41:38.420
we'll work with israel and get it done but uh i'd like to do it i mean you have people living there
01:41:47.460
buildings are being dropped on top of them or right alongside of them how would you like to
01:41:54.260
live there it's it's so unfair especially beirut you know you're going to beirut and yeah i it's
01:42:00.180
very unfair to israelis for sure i i looked at the scene two days you know you know i'll
0.98
01:42:07.620
quote i'll quote uh rubio who's standing right there uh only stupid countries don't shoot back
0.99
01:42:14.020
when they're shot at you go yesterday where they hit that was that was a big hit that was
01:42:21.620
unnecessary in my book yeah please uh two questions if you could clarify something you
01:42:29.140
you said just a few minutes ago, what are the goals of Epic Fury going into it? You said was
01:42:33.220
say it again, speak up. One of the goals of Epic Fury, you said going into it was to destroy
01:42:38.260
Iran's ballistic missiles and its capabilities to build more. Why is it acceptable to you now
0.99
01:42:43.500
that they keep some of that capability? And Iran is, Iran, what are they keeping? What are they
01:42:48.940
keeping? They have less than other nations. Now we knocked out probably 84, 85% of their missiles.
01:42:55.700
the rest of them are underground they can't even get them out you know the other night's raid i
01:43:00.520
think it was on the first night we knocked out hundreds of their missiles actually by mistake
01:43:05.620
we were hitting an area and it you know you can sort of see when the bombs are going off and then
01:43:09.440
you see one that looks like wow what happened a lot of missiles knocked down no but what are you
01:43:14.600
going to do uh let's let's spend another two weeks and give them none they don't want to be firing
01:43:20.260
missiles right now they're going to have a hard time rebuilding they're going to have a hard time
01:43:25.040
rebuilding. And if people from the Middle East, you know, if people want to invest, and again,
0.98
01:43:29.800
they don't have to invest at all. But if they do want to invest, it does have oil. It does have
01:43:35.120
probably a future, but it's going to take a long time. But are you going to let the 91 million
01:43:40.400
people starve to death? I mean, one of the things I was very intent on, they have water desalinization
01:43:46.300
plans, very good ones. I could have knocked them out in five minutes, just like I knocked out
01:43:51.380
cargill and i knocked out everything but the oil i said 25 it was so complete the only thing there
01:43:57.820
is the pipes coming with the oil because i didn't want to ruin the world market because they do a
01:44:02.540
lot of money but um i didn't want to do that no it would have been so easy it would have been easier
01:44:10.480
and i would have satisfied a group of 10 of the people but it would have been the wrong thing to
01:44:15.920
do. And it could have caused an international depression. Maybe not. Iran's position has
01:44:23.160
always been that their nuclear program was for civilian purposes. If they come back after the
0.91
01:44:27.480
signing of this and say they want to continue to have a civilian nuclear program, is that acceptable
01:44:31.800
to you? Oh my God. Well, obviously that's not acceptable. Back after the signing of this and
01:44:37.000
say they want to continue to have a civilian nuclear program, is that acceptable to you?
01:44:41.040
Well, I've said to them always, I say, look, you have probably the third largest oil reserves in
01:44:46.420
the world. What the hell do you need nuclear for? Exactly. Exactly. Okay. That's good. Exactly.
01:44:53.700
You need nuclear for some electricity. So guys, this is good. This is good. That means that
01:44:57.940
President Trump is still insisting on zero enrichment. Okay. Not just like promises. Okay.
01:45:03.700
Zero enrichment. So this is great. So I've always felt that way. So we've been pretty tough in that.
01:45:09.280
But, you know, it's also, it is a little hard, though, when you say that somebody wants it, other people have it, other adjoining states have it, and you're not letting them have it for purposes of electricity and things like that.
01:45:24.660
Yeah, but less than 1% of the electricity on the, you know, on the electrical grid, less than 1% of power has ever come from nuclear.
01:45:35.900
nuclear literally does not provide any electricity or power to the Iranian people it's never been
01:45:42.880
used for civilian purposes it's always been it's always been about nuclear weapons exactly exactly
01:45:50.080
and getting from zero to one percent is already most of the job you know going from one percent
01:45:55.560
to ninety percent is so much easier for than going from zero to one and that's why you know
01:46:01.740
Basically, if you allow them even a tiny amount, you have basically provided them a clear way to eventually get to a nuclear weapon.
0.98
01:46:09.360
And obviously, the Islamic Republic should never be trusted when they say, oh, this is for civilian purposes.
0.97
01:46:15.520
So, I mean, yeah, it sounds unfair to them if they weren't a murderous expansionist death cult that is determined in taking over the whole world with their nuclear weapons.
0.97
01:46:29.840
They're like, oh, other countries get to do it.
01:46:31.740
but we can't. Well, other countries are not trying to, are not a death cult trying to take
01:46:37.160
over the world. So that's, I mean, not countries, I mean, other regimes it is.
01:46:45.580
Thank you, Mr. President, for the question. Now that you're approaching a new phase in this
01:46:50.200
conflict with Iran, can you now say whether you will hold anyone in your administration
01:46:54.940
accountable for the strike on a school that killed more than 100 children on the first day of the
01:47:00.100
No, if it if it was a fault. And as you know, that's under investigation. It's such a strange
01:47:07.600
question to be asked at this state. It's talking about a long time ago, but nobody did that on
01:47:12.800
purpose. I guess you'd have to say about them. What about the thousands of soldiers that they
01:47:19.380
blew up when they opened their car door? What about the thousands of people that were killed
01:47:23.440
by iran no mistakes are made the war is nasty but uh i know it's under investigation and i could
01:47:30.940
have a report for you tomorrow or i'd ask i would ask pete i would ask pete hegseth that question
01:47:36.820
because they have it under investigation so guys what what everybody should remember is that
01:47:42.460
united states never never never united states and israel never never never target civilians
01:47:48.100
they never target civilians and united states and israel have the best armies in the world
01:47:53.100
And they do more than any other army on the planet to try to avoid civilian casualties.
01:48:02.820
What we do know is that both in the military operations by the United States and Israel,
01:48:08.800
the ratio of civilians to militant casualties has been lower than any other country participating in urban warfare.
01:48:18.920
So United States should be congratulated and Israel should be congratulated for doing more than any other country to reduce civilian casualties when they are doing war.
01:48:29.160
And the expectation could never be zero civilian casualties.
01:48:34.660
And also, the United States and Israel should also be congratulated for doing investigations every time a mistake like this happens.
01:48:44.060
But the expectation of having the mistakes be brought down to zero is an unrealistic expectations that no people have for no other country on the planet.
01:48:58.320
And if that is the expectation, zero civilian casualties, it means that you can't do war.
01:49:04.760
And if you can't do war, then you don't need a military.
01:49:07.720
And if you don't need a military, then you're vulnerable.
01:49:10.340
Every country defending itself will at some point, unfortunately, end up having collateral damage.
01:49:18.500
Mr. President, you've been saying all week that this deal permanently prevents Iran from getting a nuclear weapon.
01:49:27.840
But the drafts of the deal that have been floating around barely mention Iran's nuclear program.
01:49:33.180
So can you explain how exactly the deal achieves that goal?
01:49:37.920
So when I say permanently, it should be permanently.
0.85
01:49:41.340
But if it's not permanently, we will bomb them.
0.96
01:49:44.360
They will be bombed, just like I bombed them on Wednesday night and Tuesday night
0.97
01:49:48.500
and was going to bomb them on Thursday night at a level that was three times greater.
0.94
01:49:58.420
If you have a weak, pathetic president, maybe that doesn't happen.
0.99
01:50:02.460
But I can only do the job that I have to do.
1.00
01:50:07.300
close to three years. Time is going fast. But our country's become, we're the most respected
01:50:13.720
country in the world. Those leaders today, they said, we used to laugh at you two years ago.
01:50:18.700
They're the same guys. They'd laugh at the country. Now they say, you're the most respected country
01:50:23.120
anywhere in the world. Militarily, even military. Take a look at what happened in,
01:50:28.900
and look at, look at what happened in so many different locations. Afghanistan, that horrible
1.00
01:50:34.480
retreat that these people made, leaving equipment behind. They weren't under any pressure.
0.83
01:50:40.400
You take your time. You can get out. I was going to get out. We're going to get out with dignity
01:50:44.880
and pride, take 100% of the equipment. I was even taking the tents down. But then they got in and
01:50:50.520
they just left. They left all the equipment. I may get all that equipment back. Now, here's the
01:50:55.840
thing, more symbolic because it's a little old now, but we may get it all back. Afghanistan is
0.96
01:51:03.680
kissing our ass you know that so you're threatening to bomb iran if they don't comply but there's
0.99
01:51:09.440
nothing enforceable in the deal itself is that correct doesn't have to be i let him know i said
1.00
01:51:15.520
look if you don't adhere to the agreement i don't want to do that but we're going to bomb the hell
01:51:20.760
out of you and i don't think that they're going to veer from the agreement what else am i going
01:51:25.940
to do am i going to say i'm going to take you to court let me take you to court let me just let me
01:51:29.860
sue you no we're gonna bomb the hell out of them if they divide so guys this is actually really
0.60
01:51:35.220
good that president trump is saying that because that means that the mou does not um they're not
01:51:41.340
gonna pay attention to what's in the mou if you if they're just not happy with what they're saying
01:51:45.860
they're like oh like it's not gonna be like but there's nothing but but but you say like we don't
01:51:50.120
care we don't like it we're gonna bomb you so that's what this means lay the agreement i don't
01:51:53.880
want them to. I want them to honor the agreement. Again, the straits close up. Bad things can
01:52:00.360
happen. You know, in war, terrible things happen. Like you mentioned the question before about
01:52:05.600
a school gets hit, other things get hit. Bad things happen in war. War is a nasty place. I
01:52:12.340
see it. I see it. I see it better than maybe anybody has ever seen it.
01:52:24.200
How do you see this agreement further affecting energy prices in the U.S. and the U.S. economy
01:52:31.040
And secondly, Mr. President, how do you think Vice President J.D. Vance did on The View
01:52:36.240
Well, first of all, thank you for the word plummeting because that's what's happening.
01:52:42.300
And that means oil prices are going to come down.
01:52:45.480
You know, if you make donuts, you have a heating, you have a stove, and you have to buy the heat.
01:52:51.300
You need the gas or the electricity or whatever you're using.
01:52:54.600
And when oil prices come down, oil is the biggest thing.
01:52:57.680
Oil is, you get oil prices coming down, and they're going to come down.
01:53:00.940
And we're hitting into threes now for gasoline, and that'll come down a lot lower.
01:53:05.700
So I was in Iowa just before this started, and I was saying to myself, I can't believe we're doing so well,
01:53:10.420
But I have to go. We have to put out this fire in Iran because I don't want them using a nuclear weapon.
1.00
01:53:16.260
They would have used a nuclear weapon. A hundred percent. They would have used it.
0.98
01:53:19.800
The only question is, was it going to be that day or that week?
0.83
01:53:23.060
They would have used a nuclear weapon. They were on the way.
0.80
01:53:25.700
And I said, we're going to have to put out the fire. And I said, you know, oil prices.
01:53:31.380
So gasoline. We passed two gas stations in Iowa, made a speech up there.
01:53:36.240
the people are great. I want it by so much. And I love the people, farmers. And we passed
01:53:43.040
two gas stations. One was $1.85. One was $1.91. Now that's Iowa, but it was, I mean, California
01:53:51.420
has all those crazy taxes that they put on, you know, California taxes. But the oil was down to
01:53:57.340
$2 to, I'd say between $2 and $2.50. And it was heading down further. And we were going to have
01:54:05.740
great run we took a little journey down to a place called the islamic republic of iran and we bombed
1.00
01:54:13.900
the hell out of them and now they can never have a nuclear over now we had a disturbance but i must
1.00
01:54:20.460
say it was much less than anybody thought they all never went to 350 a barrel it went to 115 120
01:54:29.980
you all never went anywhere near that and the other thing i thought the stock market would go
01:54:34.300
go down 25% or 30%. The stock market a week ago, before we started this, was higher than it was
01:54:41.200
when we started, which tells you that we have a very resilient economy. We have the strongest
01:54:47.000
economy we've ever had. Now, the word affordability is a fake word, but made up by the
01:54:52.460
Democrats. Here's where it's fake, because they made it up, because I inherited these prices.
01:54:58.680
and when i had my first news conference first day they started screaming affordability the
01:55:05.460
democrats affordability affordability they're screaming i say what's that all about they
01:55:11.200
they gave it to me they gave it to me it's affordability and they use that word to a
01:55:17.000
fair they will well they were the ones that created the affordability crisis i'm the one
01:55:22.220
that got it down remember highest insurance rates in history highest rates for everything
01:55:27.340
eggs remember eggs they were four times more expensive than they were in my administration
1.00
01:55:32.060
and i got it down peter very quickly our secretary did a good job of agriculture brooke she did a
01:55:39.500
great job with eggs and everything else and now that the oil is coming down you're going to see
01:55:45.100
everything follow everything follows the cost of energy and we're going to end up having the
01:55:50.140
lowest energy anywhere in the world please yeah no please thank you you're from abc you're fake
01:55:59.740
news go ahead uh to follow up on oil can you confirm will iran be able to immediately sell
01:56:06.380
their oil to market and will u.s sanctions snap back immediately if there is a delay or collapse
01:56:12.700
in the talks and then relatedly is there any safeguard in this deal to prevent iran
01:56:18.460
from charging what they say could be fees after the 60-day extension.
01:56:22.880
The thing that's going to stop them from doing that,
01:56:25.960
because you can't cover everything in a document, is common sense.
01:56:29.500
They don't want to get bombed. They don't want to get hit.
01:56:32.000
As far as sanctions are concerned, at some point, you know, we have sanctions which will...
01:56:36.260
This is great, guys. So basically, President Trump is saying the MOU is irrelevant.
01:56:40.800
We see if the Islamic Republic does something we don't like, we're going to bomb them.
1.00
01:56:46.760
Never let them rebuild. They would have no money. They would be in poverty.
01:56:53.760
So something will happen as soon as they behave.
01:56:55.760
When they behave, we're going to let that go. We're going to have to.
01:56:58.760
I put sanctions on a lot of people and then I let them go.
01:57:04.760
Thank you, Mr. President. My name is Shinji Abe.
01:57:07.760
I'm a Japanese Yomiri newspaper company from Washington correspondent.
01:57:15.760
Did you ask other G7 nations to send military force, and what specifically are you asking of Japan, or...
01:57:27.760
I just left your prime minister. Japan's doing very well. She's my biggest fan, I have to tell you. She thinks I did a great job. You have to call her and ask her.
01:57:39.760
She's doing a very good job, by the way. Go ahead.
01:57:42.760
and uh military support is no longer necessary but what do you want to know
01:57:47.320
go ahead just tell me what do you want to know okay my question is uh did you ask other g7
01:57:52.840
nations to send military force and what specifically are you asking of japan to send the air force for
01:58:00.760
what oh other countries not just japan no no i don't need we don't need it oh by the way they
01:58:14.420
They all wanna do it, every single one of them.
01:58:23.760
The UK, I said, yeah, it'd be nice if you sent ships.
01:58:27.580
but I said, it'd be nice if you sent some ships.
01:58:33.860
they'll be there, sir, as soon as the war is over.
01:58:44.120
Japan was not willing to get involved during the war.
01:58:52.000
but they said, no, we don't want to get involved.
01:58:59.400
and with the Arab states that got hit, surprisingly hit.
0.99
01:59:09.640
Thanks a lot Mr. President. Question on Brazil. I would like to know how was your interaction here in Evian during the G7 with the Brazilian President Lula? Did you talk about the new U.S. tariffs on Brazil? Did you talk about the U.S. designation of...
01:59:31.640
Well, because it's Brazil, so it's not about...
01:59:35.640
Okay, let's go. I think it's over here. There we go. This is a new guy.
01:59:41.640
...law has long been considered the core principle.
01:59:45.640
During this summit, any of the leaders express any concerns
01:59:50.640
on the possible violation of international law on the attack on Iran?
01:59:57.640
no no actually the opposite they felt they were very dangerous they were very relieved because
02:00:03.720
they could get hit too they were very relieved no we never discussed that they'd no it'd be the
02:00:09.560
opposite they broke the law they killed thousands of people they killed thousands of our soldiers and
02:00:15.320
hundreds of thousands of people yeah please go ahead go ahead
02:00:27.640
Mr. President, yesterday the box and thanks for the Chinese government to help make peace talk
02:00:37.680
So what do you think about China's work to get the United States and Iran sitting down
02:00:52.900
They could have sent in to try and block or break the blockade.
02:00:58.700
They could have sent in an oil ship with six destroyers alongside of it on each side.
02:01:08.500
He tried to help, and I think he probably helped get it solved.
02:01:12.320
You know, they get 50 percent of their oil from that location.
02:01:20.740
And he didn't give any big weaponry. I guess something we'll find something somewhere along that.
02:01:24.900
But he didn't give any big weaponry. I can tell you that. No, I think China was I couldn't ask for much more.
02:01:31.240
Again, they were impacted because they get more than 50 percent of their oil from the Homo Strait.
0.92
02:01:39.020
And no, I thought they were fantastic. OK, how about one more question right here? Go ahead, please.
02:01:44.740
um the latest you gov economist poll shows that democrats have lost a five-point edge on the
02:01:51.100
generic congressional ballot they just have now just a two-point okay so this is about this is
02:01:56.380
the last question is about the elections so i think we're good yeah i think we're pretty much
02:02:00.460
done okay should we go do the super chat um yeah the petit toe um said that he's back and he has
02:02:10.340
um he has a three minute um speech that he's prepared so petite go ahead with with your
02:02:18.420
with what you'd like to share and then and then afterwards we can go to the q a
02:02:23.780
thank you goldie in fact it's three parts and each part could take three minutes so
02:02:30.260
So tell me if it took too long, correct me, okay?
02:02:44.960
Friends, these past days, you've seen the narrative everywhere.
02:02:55.720
what we what we are seeing right now is not a strong islamic republic sitting at the table
0.96
02:03:02.180
it's a loose collection of armed groups each pulling in different directions one day
02:03:09.320
the next day irgc says something completely different some claim mustawa is alive others
02:03:19.180
say he's gone there is no single authority that can even make a promise for next week
02:03:25.300
let alone honor one this is what the collapsing system looks like not a government but armed
02:03:35.360
mercenaries fighting over scraps of power and here's the part that here's the part they don't
02:03:42.920
want you to notice mercenaries only exist as long as they are getting paid and armed
02:03:49.080
Cut off their money and their weapons, and they're just an ordinary man with no cause
02:03:58.120
That's exactly what's happening right now.
0.59
02:04:01.320
President Trump's goal was never to install anyone in power in Iran.
0.82
02:04:05.900
His job is to protect American interests, lower oil prices, secure energy markets, stop
0.95
02:04:18.960
The analysts saw oil would hit $200, today we're talking around $70.
02:04:28.960
That's not betrayal, that's keeping his words to Americans.
02:04:33.960
The real chain of the revolution was never in Washington.
02:04:41.960
88, 2009, 2019, and 2022, and again last year when millions come out across all 31 provinces
02:04:59.880
He simply refused to abandon it when it was dangerous to stand with it.
02:05:06.000
We didn't need Trump or anyone else to start this fight.
02:05:10.220
We needed them to stop protecting the regime and get out of the way.
02:05:15.600
They did their part, no the rest belongs to us.
02:05:25.520
A regime, this fracture, this broke, this divided, it doesn't survive.
02:05:38.260
It only lingers as long as we believe it is still have power.
02:05:47.700
Every voice that refused to accept their propaganda,
02:05:50.980
every person inside and outside who keep the real story alive.
02:06:02.180
The people of Iran never ran out of reasons to want their country back.
0.95
02:06:06.260
stay in the fight the end is closer than their nose wants to wants you their noise wants you
0.84
02:06:15.060
to believe that's why the real battlefield right now isn't just in the streets of tehran it is
02:06:23.060
it is in how we organize ourselves we do we don't need one big leader carrying everything on his
02:06:30.340
shoulders anymore the age of putting all the weight on a few famous faces is over the future
02:06:36.660
belongs to millions of small smart actions done at the right time by the right people inside iran
02:06:45.140
simply living with dignity and refusing to normalize this chaos is resistance some take
02:06:51.460
bigger risk some smaller that's okay not everyone has to be a hero in the same way what matters is
02:06:59.300
that each person knows their own effort counts no matter how small it looks from the outside
02:07:06.900
for us in for for iranians in diaspora those who those who those of us who have freedom resources
02:07:16.980
and safety their responsibility is heavier we have no excuse not to act we need to stop waiting for
02:07:27.060
one central command instead build decentralized communities across the world connect with each
02:07:33.860
other share ideas some will organize protests some will rise funds to support families inside
02:07:41.540
some will focus in media media legal procedure or technology different tactics same direction
02:07:49.780
and to our international allies american israelis europeans and everyone who stood with iranian
02:07:56.740
people through this. Thank you. Your support shortened this nightmare. But the final chapter
02:08:03.880
of a story must be written by Iranian themselves. That's not rejection. That's dignity. The cleaner
02:08:12.480
and more self-reliant this transition is, the harder it will be for anyone to call it foreign
02:08:21.160
interferes later. This is a network, not a pyramid. Every single one of us is a knot.
02:08:29.160
When millions of knots move with purpose, even in small ways, the effect is more powerful than
02:08:36.100
any missile. The regime is fragmented, broke, and arguing with itself. Their only remaining
02:08:43.360
strength is our disunity so let's take that strength away from them stay connected stay
02:08:51.760
purpose purposeful and most importantly stay in the fight and one more thing we must understand
0.57
02:08:58.640
clearly the islamic republic still has teams inside western countries especially in the u.s
0.95
02:09:05.280
who's only job is to create scandals and damage our image we saw it uh during the first matches
02:09:14.200
of uh fifa world cup simple things handing or simple things handing or handing out flags and
02:09:21.000
teachers t-shirts suddenly turns into videos that were used uh porter portrary iranians in diaspora
02:09:28.700
as reckless or unserious. That wasn't random. That was coordinated. Their goal is simple.
02:09:35.640
Every time we gain momentum, they manufacture a scandal to make us look bad. So for those
02:09:42.360
of us in diaspora, we have to become smarter. Before every action, ask yourself, can this be
02:09:50.340
twisted and used against us? Can they create the wrong narrative from this? We must think two
02:09:56.640
steps ahead, not just with emotion, but with cold awareness of how their propaganda machine
02:10:02.720
operates. To our international supporters, your concern comes from a good place. But panicking
02:10:09.520
and attacking President Trump publicly, every time something looks messy, only helps the regime.
0.62
02:10:20.160
only helps the regime. Their greatest weapon has always been narrative control. The first rule of
02:10:27.260
this war is to know your enemy. The more you understand how the Islamic Republic actually
0.83
02:10:32.880
works, the less likely you are to fall into their traps. We don't need perfect unity. We need a
0.99
02:10:40.580
smart, decentralized networks moving in the same direction, some with money, some with skills,
02:10:46.520
some with media some with simple moral support after 170 nights together here we've already
02:10:53.720
built something real now we're just refining refining it so when victory comes it comes
02:11:00.360
clear and stronger this is not the time to get loud this is time to get the same discipline
02:11:07.320
stay awake stay aware stay sharp and keep moving forward together
02:11:12.040
thank you so much petito that was um incredibly moving and incredibly powerful and uh thank you
02:11:24.160
so much for that um always always wise words from petito our iranian freedom fighter who is
02:11:32.220
inside of occupied iran and the only reason he's able to join us on iran revolution live
02:11:39.840
is because he's using Starlink and, of course, you know, has to keep his identity hidden
02:11:45.540
because if the Islamic regime finds out who he is, he could be executed
0.61
02:11:51.380
because the very act of coming on social media and speaking against the Islamic regime
02:12:00.340
So thank you, Petito, for your message, for your thoughts and for your comments.
02:12:06.780
you're more than welcome and always honored to share my thoughts with you and everyone around
02:12:14.500
the world that's why that's why i'm here because i feel a national duty when i have access to free
02:12:19.940
internet to be voice of the voices voices in iran thank you and you know that's why we do
02:12:26.060
iran revolution live as well as to make sure that uh you know we are amplifying the voices
02:12:31.500
of Iranians, especially Iranians inside of occupied Iran,
02:12:38.420
So it always gives me a good energy boost when we're able to do this
02:12:44.180
and help to amplify your voice to tens of thousands of people
02:12:51.520
All right, Armin, we should probably go to our Q&A before we finish up.
02:13:26.320
I do admit that the words against Israel that is being said, I don't like him.
02:13:34.220
Whatever other plan behind the scene that people might have, whatever reasons they might have.
02:13:42.080
I personally don't like hearing those statements against Israel.
02:13:47.980
And all we could do in response is, instead of complaining about it, is to just go and defend Israel.
02:13:54.400
when it's our job to go out and defend Israel instead of complaining about what things that
02:14:00.000
we have no control over um and thank you Danny for the super chat and guys if you are frustrated
02:14:06.620
about anything come to our discussion group today is going to be open discussion anybody
02:14:10.320
is free to everybody you can come and tell us what you think over there um and then we have
02:14:15.900
the next super chat uh from Jahangir oh hi Jahangir saying pause to comment is is that's why
02:15:07.780
Islamic Republic. So to me, that was amazing
1.00
02:15:09.700
actually. I don't care about the pronunciation.
02:15:15.780
with another super chair saying, these guys are
1.00
02:15:19.820
i don't know what that was referring to but i'm sure it made sense with the context at the time
0.90
02:15:25.980
that you said that um thank you so much for the super chat another super chat for john gear saying
02:15:31.360
trump tactical uh from the start a limit of survive uh surprise we will win yes eventually
02:15:38.600
we will win one way or another um we will win so yep um maybe soon maybe later maybe sooner but
0.99
02:15:46.820
we're moving in the right direction jh is saying stupid people say keep dropping bombs armin he
0.99
02:15:51.500
called you out um well the iranian people were asking for the bombings to continue and so were
0.99
02:16:00.060
the israelis and it made sense people trump didn't say people trump said nations he didn't say
02:16:09.020
people he wasn't referring to the iranian people he was referring to nations he said what nation
02:16:15.300
would come like what country what state would come and do this he didn't actually say people so
02:16:21.380
that wasn't a reference to the Iranian people or to any other people he was referring specifically
02:16:27.940
to government policy and that's just a reality in international law and international diplomacy
02:16:37.220
that the first option for regular normal democratic countries is diplomacy first
02:16:44.500
before you go to war um if president trump comes out and says you know we have a war first policy
02:16:50.900
that's not going to look good on the international stage so even though the islamic regime is war
02:16:55.220
first um yeah so that this this comment is out of context that's not what president trump said
02:17:03.220
he was referring to um the policy of nation states not individual people yeah and just to
02:17:11.060
to be clear, it's not stupid for the Iranian people to want their oppressors to be blown
02:17:17.020
to pieces. And then we have the next super chat from Pushups saying, did he really just
02:17:22.560
say he didn't want to be Hoover while he is arguing for appeasement and then called other
0.99
02:17:29.460
people stupid? I mean, he's not arguing for, I don't think it's fair to say President Trump
0.97
02:17:35.760
is doing appeasement given that he has done more than any other president in u.s history when it
02:17:41.200
comes to inflicting damage on the islamic republic i know we have some disagreements over what have
02:17:46.080
what is happening right now again i don't i want to go to other people but if you want we could come
02:17:51.120
come discuss it later um in you know in the next live stream uh but i don't but that was just a
02:17:57.680
summary response that i just had right so thank you for that and then fleshy interloper with the
1.00
02:18:02.240
the super chat saying, what would Kamala do? Exactly. Every time you're upset with President
1.00
02:18:06.680
Trump, just ask yourself that. What would Kamala do? And then you have to feel a lot better
0.97
02:18:10.660
because it's night and day. Basically, Kamala would be an Islamic Republic ally in the White
02:18:17.680
House, basically. Thank you. And Karen just became a member. Thank you so much for joining
02:18:22.520
their group. And then we have Luan, Luand, oh, no, Luan Kay, I think. I'm just going to say it like
02:18:31.160
that. Thank you so much for the super chat saying, Deirut Goldie, Armin, and Petito, do you think we
02:18:36.200
will reach the finish line before the end of Trump's term? If not, are you concerned about it?
02:18:41.620
So I, you know, my policy, again, this is my personal policy, is not to give a timeline,
02:18:46.160
because if you don't reach a timeline, then it's going to cause despair. My policy, personal policy,
02:18:51.500
is to look at the fact that we are the islamic republic is getting weaker and the opposition
0.99
02:18:56.460
against islamic republic is getting stronger so that means we're moving in the right direction
02:19:00.700
um the islamic republic has never been as weak as as it is right now and the iranian people have
0.87
02:19:06.140
never been as strong as they are right now so that means that things are moving in the right
02:19:10.300
direction so it might be a marathon instead of a sprint that people were expecting uh it might
02:19:14.700
take longer than many people hope but we're still moving in the right direction that's the way i see
02:19:24.080
Saying he is fighting for Israel more than any other president
02:19:46.540
brainwashing everyone sweden hates trump thanks to the media okay so you're taking president
02:19:54.320
trump is basically fighting on so many different fronts and that's why we have to understand
02:19:58.040
that he's not just fighting against islamic republic there's many other enemies that he
02:20:01.400
has to deal with and that might explain a lot of the strategy really good point younger thank you
02:20:05.980
for that context and then rafi so much thank you so much for the super chat oh sorry guys just me
02:20:12.660
having to go to the discussion group rafi is saying don't mind trump uh trashing israel to win
02:20:17.940
mid-elections as long as behind the table we keep kicking irgc irgc is behind javish that's a very
02:20:25.600
good point rafi like um we have to look at uh what's happening rather than what is being said
02:20:31.060
however if that is the strategy because you're right like president trump needs to do whatever
02:20:37.080
he needs to do to make to do as much as possible for the democrats not to not take over because
02:20:42.520
that whatever your complaints you have about president trump the democrats taking over will
02:20:46.200
be better so some of these might be like this strategy to uh basically get an upper hand in
02:20:52.520
the midterms you're completely right uh it is true though that if the words that are being said
02:20:59.080
um if that's a part of a bigger strategy um it does still cause some damage to israel
02:21:04.920
and it is our responsibility like maybe president trump has his own plan and good reasons for
02:21:11.960
saying what he's saying i don't know but it is important for us pro-israelis to come out and
02:21:18.920
defend israel whenever something like that is being said about israel in my opinion let me
02:21:23.000
know if you agree with that and then by the way yep um i think you do by the way uh we've got
02:21:29.720
We got another super chat from William saying, not Israelis, still appreciate your defense of them.
1.00
02:21:35.860
I think the whole world benefits from Israel being stronger because Israel is a wall between the world's enemies and the world.
0.86
02:21:45.600
And supporting Israel is supporting the world.
0.86
02:21:50.920
Fickle not with the super chat saying, thank goodness Trump won the election.
02:21:54.240
I shudder to think where the world would be if he didn't win exactly.
02:21:58.140
Guys, every time you feel disappointed, just remind yourself what would be, how far, how much worse the situation would be if the Democrats have won this.
02:22:06.380
Valerie, thank you so much for the super chat saying, dear or no, some come, some go bye-bye.
02:22:17.140
Jan Guru with another super chat saying, it just goes over a lot of people's heads.
02:22:21.640
Yep, I see what you're talking about regarding your previous comment.
02:22:24.800
And then we have push-ups with another super chat saying there should be no dollars funding, dollars fund or otherwise.
02:22:33.980
So push-ups, so there's a $24 billion one and there's a $300 billion, right?
02:22:41.520
As far as we know regarding what President Trump and J.D. Vance and others have been saying, $24 billion, if it's true,
02:22:48.640
if all that if everything is saying is true if even if that gets released it's going to be based
02:22:54.160
on behavior and even people like well nothing should be released even if it is we have based
0.79
02:22:58.640
on behavior the behavior that is expected of the islamic republic this is disarming the islamic
02:23:04.080
republic so the islamic republic would have to give up um if if it goes the way that they say
0.51
02:23:09.920
it's going to go the islamic republic would have to give up things that are more valuable to it
02:23:14.080
and then $24 billion. And also remember that during Operation Epic Fury, the Islamic Republic
0.92
02:23:19.120
lost so much more than $24 billion, and this is a small fraction of it. The $300 billion is nothing
02:23:25.200
that will be given to the Islamic Republic. In fact, I could argue, and I argued this in my
02:23:29.760
previous livestream, that what the conditions that they're putting in for private companies,
02:23:34.720
not the United States, to go invest in Iran, again, remember, all of this is an MOU. It's a
02:23:42.720
dream like we haven't seen any of this happen and it just because it's on a piece of paper it
02:23:47.040
doesn't mean it's going to happen even if it and we have to see the piece of paper but the way that
02:23:51.280
they're talking about it right now is these are private companies that will go invest in iran
02:23:56.400
um if the economy opens if the economy opens that means that that money is not going to go
02:24:00.880
to the irgc this is actually would be a design a plan to destroy the irgc because the irgc's entire
02:24:08.720
power economic influence and military power comes from being isolationist comes from having
02:24:14.320
a command economy structure comes from having monopolies over many industries within iran
02:24:19.200
comes from being anti-americanism and anti-israeli uh opening the economy of iran to the global world
02:24:26.960
is not funding the irgc is actually an attack on the irgc and the irgc actually would fear those
02:24:34.560
that 300 billion dollars wouldn't benefit from it if actually if what they're saying about is
02:24:39.600
actually true uh but we could go into more details regarding the nature of irgc and how it has power
02:24:45.120
within iran if you guys want more in detail later you know i'll give a very very basic and simple
02:24:51.600
example so um there's a reason why um within um occupied iran you cannot find a single um
02:25:03.840
franchise store right so think about like mcdonald's okay you can find mcdonald's everywhere
02:25:10.800
in the world you can find mcdonald's in russia uh i think they closed it down though i think because
02:25:16.160
of the maybe the ukraine war i can't remember but you know at some point like russia china um you
02:25:21.600
know the uae um you know mcdonald's is one of those places that you know one of those fast food
02:25:27.680
restaurants you can find everywhere in the world you know where you can't find it um inside of
0.79
02:25:32.880
occupied iran because the islamic regime is a totalitarian dictatorship um it's not just about
0.99
02:25:40.000
oppressing the people it's about oppressing and controlling the economy every single business
1.00
02:25:45.480
is basically um beholden to them and you know they're like a mafia they control everything
02:25:51.900
so um you know theoretically let's say if mcdonald's was going to open up um in in occupied
02:26:00.380
Iran, not that it ever would when the Islamic regime is in power, but theoretically, if it was
02:26:05.480
going to, that would be very bad for the Islamic regime, because the Islamic regime would not be
02:26:11.280
able to control that business anymore, right? So this is where sort of this thought of, or this,
02:26:19.200
you know, possibility of opening up Iran to the global market is actually very bad for the Islamic
02:26:28.620
regime because that means they will not have control over 90 percent of the country's economy
0.98
02:26:37.040
because again one of the ways the islamic regime is funding terrorism around the world and also
0.99
02:26:42.400
keeping itself in power is through complete control of the economy right like no one ever
0.89
02:26:48.440
thinks about that like all these chain stores um that are available everywhere around the world
02:26:54.080
you can't find them in any like even like i'm you know even like fashion stores like i don't know
02:26:59.260
think of like um h&m right or uh levi's or you know whatever whatever like brand or whatever
02:27:07.140
there's literally not a single franchise store in occupied iran from anywhere else in the world
02:27:15.780
and that's because the regime has had complete control of it however prior to 1979 um various
02:27:23.380
factories like like prior to 1979 mountain dew had a production facility in iran under the shah's
02:27:31.520
time same thing with the coca-cola right like they had production plants in in occupy uh sorry
02:27:39.020
in iran prior to 1979 so that global economy existed it was only when the regime took over
02:27:45.900
that they cut off um iran from the rest of the world in order to control the money and the economy
02:27:52.440
all right um let me go through these rest of these quick i might be i'm gonna send a message
02:28:00.860
i'm gonna be a little bit late for the discussion group just sorry guys about that um let me
02:28:07.220
start this one okay jangir with another super chat saying hamas takes all the money instead
02:28:11.560
of building society for their citizen they build tunnel rgc gets money and build nuke in mountain
02:28:17.360
instead of investing in infrastructure and healthcare exactly right you got that completely
02:28:21.580
correctly thank you so much angir why would you support saying armin i emailed you the us army
02:28:26.780
handbook on uh citizens tactics and self-defense uh plan a is ending plan b begins this is a new
02:28:34.460
day cheer up everyone thank you so much for that it might be it um you know i i saw it in my inbox
02:28:40.460
i haven't had time to check it but it's good that i have that as a resource in my inbox um and at
02:28:46.620
some point i'm going to forward it to the people that are that we need for them to review it and
02:28:51.980
sorry if i can't answer every single one of my emails but i did see it uh hitting my inbox so
02:28:57.500
thank you so much for that um and then we have neela neela renee thank you so much for the
02:29:02.700
super chat saying my encouragement my encouragement is the iranian people we all knew from the
02:29:07.500
beginning it would be up to them to take back the nation exactly correct it seems like something
02:29:15.460
Nila, what I think needs to happen sooner rather than later
0.81
02:29:29.120
4D Winks, thank you so much for the support you're saying,
02:29:32.320
MEK pays U.S. politicians and D.C. at least for favor.
02:29:40.100
Do you want the U.S. to force regime change in favor of M.E.K.?
02:29:44.600
That's why VP Vance avoids forcing regime change.
0.99
02:29:50.740
I mean, to be fair, the M.E.K. doesn't have any chance
1.00
02:29:57.160
One way or another, this should be up to the Iranian people.
02:29:59.800
It shouldn't be something that the United States forces upon Iran,
02:30:12.000
Neela, thank you so much for the super chat saying,
02:30:14.020
love you, Patipto, XOXOXO, good to see you more lately, sweetheart.
02:30:26.940
could the Syrian jihadist army invade, liberate,
02:30:32.900
and team with Israel air power and intelligence and defeat Hezbollah?
02:30:42.980
but my understanding is that the Israelis don't change
02:30:51.560
the first thing the Israelis did was go into Lebanon
0.66
02:30:54.000
and destroy all of their military equipments
1.00
02:31:04.100
with how bad it is to basically arm jihadis against other jihadis it seems sometimes like
02:31:09.620
a good idea at the time but often it backfires um so i don't think israel would be comfortable
02:31:14.740
with that unless things you know things might change and again remember like when it comes to
02:31:19.380
two militaries working with each other there needs to be a lot of integration happening that
02:31:23.460
i don't see these jihadis having the capability of being able to integrate with israel military and
02:31:28.660
i think that as of right now at least israel military is a lot more efficient and it's you
02:31:33.220
know without other people getting involved but again if the americans calculations might change
02:31:38.580
based on political decisions that are being made in washington or somewhere else you know or you
02:31:44.020
know other forces might change that behavior but as of right now i don't think the israelis would
02:31:48.180
be comfortable with that at least certain things changes thank you so much for the question and
02:31:53.380
then jehan gear again thank you so much saying the donald hearts israel heart love love the donald
02:32:00.020
and love israel thank you so much for supporting us yeah hungary all the time and kevin uh with
02:32:06.120
the super just saying the chinese communist triad uh fentanyl smuggling gangsters brought
02:32:11.420
the ruling liberal government of canada to allow fentanyl smuggling into u.s and fentanyl money
02:32:16.680
launching in vancouver bc banks um yeah that's been a huge issue um this is something that i
02:32:25.520
actually uh this was one of the files that i worked on back when i was an elected official
02:32:30.160
and yeah this is something very very well known um to you know police and others who are looking
02:32:36.120
into this but yeah unfortunately um a lot of fentanyl is smuggled in um from china and uh
02:32:43.220
and unfortunately the canadian government um mark carney and the liberals they're they're not doing
02:32:48.840
much about it it's it's it's shameful it's terrible actually meanwhile they go around saying
02:32:53.460
that uh you know china is their best ally or whatever like it's wild thank you for that goldie
02:33:01.460
and then we have jam gear again saying they sent drones and weapons and they say stayed neutral
02:33:07.140
because u.s and israel uh because u.s okay they sent drones and weapons and they stayed neutral
02:33:14.020
because u.s and israel show cased what they do oh they showed what they could do with the technology
02:33:21.140
and weapons they got stunned and as we got okay that's you you're saying that's why they stayed
02:33:26.840
back and january again with another super chair saying drill baby drill yeah i agree with that
02:33:31.600
uh thank you so much yeah deregulation allow the free markets to increase you know the amount of
02:33:38.560
energy that it is in the for as much as it's needed for the end for industries to grow kevin
02:33:44.740
again thank you so much saying why is president trump not criticizing nato nato ally president
02:33:49.920
erdogan and turkey for not doing anything to help us in their own neighborhood as a region
02:33:55.360
i think you know we don't i think president trump has something you know behind the scenes happening
02:34:00.320
with turkey right now uh and i think he's you know for political reasons he's avoiding attacking him
02:34:08.320
and uh there's something that he's he's planning on president trump is planning a lot right now
02:34:13.120
something in syria um and i think that for political reasons he's using the erdogan's you
02:34:20.240
know influence over uh al-shara in syria and that's why he's holding back right now that
02:34:27.840
um that's the main reason i think but we'll see um thank you so much uh
02:34:34.480
b i don't know carol carol i don't know how to pronounce the first part but thank you carol carol
02:34:39.120
saying armin is galibov proposing a new tactic for the third republic give up the enriched uranium
02:34:45.500
and the nuclear bomb for the survival of the republic what if this gets almost unanimous
02:34:51.420
support in the islamic republic the reason why i can't well i think that's what galibov is trying
02:34:56.780
to do for his own survival and he wants to be the head of the third republic the reason why that's
02:35:01.680
really hard to pull off is because the plan Qalibov has is something that needs to satisfy
0.96
02:35:09.420
the Americans, but that would require opening up the economy and that will completely destroy
0.82
02:35:15.440
the IRGC's model and their grip on power. So even if some parts of the IRGC submits because
0.76
02:35:22.580
they're being threatened by the Americans to submit or else they're going to be bombed,
02:35:27.220
There are parts of IRGC that will resist this because their entire group of power will be completely dismantled if the economic model within the Iran changes that way.
02:35:41.620
And that's why I think you will continue to see some resistance from different fragments of the IRGC.
02:35:53.160
would be able to overcome the parts of the IRGC
02:36:01.420
to get a deal because of this internal struggle
02:36:15.180
um what is this dag dag dag oh dag from the iran citizenry enough to change the equation
02:36:25.560
is that dag dag would besiege be the same if they felt the if they felt the crosshairs on them
02:36:35.940
okay if you're talking um about the anxiety dag i'm assuming is the anxiety in persian
02:36:43.380
right even it's a bit of the irgc and citizenry enough to change the equation i don't know what
02:36:49.120
the passage should be the same if they felt the process on them so okay so here's the thing the
02:36:55.220
people within the basige and the irgc they have they are not a monolith right some of them are
02:37:00.440
there for money some of them are there for ideological reasons some of them are ready to
02:37:04.260
be murdered some of them yes they will change their behavior if they feel threatened this is
02:37:08.900
This is not just within the Basij, this is within the entire body of the IRGC.
02:37:13.860
That's why since yesterday and the day before, you saw many of the most important officials of the IRGC basically bending the knee to Qalibaf's takeover.
02:37:25.200
We saw Qani do that. We saw Abdullahi do that. We saw Mousavi do that.
02:37:30.800
We haven't seen Wahidi do that yet, but these are people who are more motivated by staying alive,
0.89
02:37:36.600
and they now fear Ghalibov because of what he can do to them
0.68
02:37:43.160
So it really depends on the type of Basiji,
1.00
02:38:04.740
um and thank you and i think i think many iranians would agree with me on that
02:38:09.420
um john gear thank you so much for saying that is easy that's an easy one marco rubia there you go
02:38:16.280
john gear as another iranian agrees with me on that point um and ashley thank you so much saying
02:38:22.840
ukrainian drones plus u.s uh can i i want to add something to that so you know as as someone who's
02:38:29.500
bit in politics, I don't actually trust politicians, right? Like no one should just inherently trust
02:38:38.100
politicians. And I say this as someone with experience, right? What I say, who is the most
02:38:45.160
trustworthy? Definitely Marco Rubio, right? Based on his actions and his statements and his comments
02:38:53.760
and everything like that but to to say that you know like you you you know you wholeheartedly
02:38:59.800
trust any single politician um that i mean because conditions can change situations can change i say
02:39:08.060
this as someone who's literally a former politician right um now i was never in any position where you
02:39:14.940
know i said something and then i change it afterwards um but this is something that happens
02:39:19.880
quite frequently in politics because you're looking at um various factors and you know the
02:39:25.220
equation might change and all of that so um to say that like you know you inherently trust
02:39:31.760
any politician that would be like the first mistake to make in politics but i mean the only
02:39:37.640
person that i trust in politics is his royal highness there's a palavi and that's because i
02:39:43.180
don't see him as a politician like he's someone who's above and beyond politics right but
02:39:49.400
But in terms of who is the most trustworthy based on the consistency of their messaging, that I would say is Marco Rubio.
02:40:01.000
Yeah, I completely agree. That's why I also said Marco Rubio.
02:40:07.000
And then Ashley said Ukrainian drones plus U.S. face ID Iranian pilots equals their hunting phase two.
02:40:13.720
yes exactly uh how is the website that ids regime supporters going oh um i don't know i i haven't
02:40:23.280
seen it being um i haven't seen it being uh functioning uh petiteo can you give a quick
02:40:29.020
response on is the website that was uh um that was basically being regime supported yeah i think
02:40:39.820
Okay, if Petito opens his mic, I think he's not behind his computer.
02:40:48.880
And by the way, I agree with the first part of your super chat.
02:40:52.860
Fleshy Interloper, thank you so much, saying thank you, Petito.
02:40:59.940
I'll meet with a super chat saying no more excuses for the left
02:41:10.700
If they don't abide by that, then we have all the legitimacy to go and F things up.
02:41:18.260
Jayangui with a super chat saying, this speech makes me so proud to be called Iranian.
02:41:39.500
And your name, I screenshotted it so I could be able to pronounce it.
02:41:52.700
I couldn't pronounce it in Hebrew, so I gave it to Gemini to read it for me.
02:41:57.260
And then also your super chat is in Hebrew, but it translates to,
02:42:04.920
so it's a hebrew written in latin script and it translates to the iranian nation lives and
02:42:10.880
endures and because you wrote it like that i'm going to try to read it anyways ha haam ha irani
02:42:17.920
oh my god cha no ha ha ha ve kayyam kayyam i'm pretty sure i nailed that by the way i'm pretty
02:42:29.840
sure i nailed that but but again it translates to the iranian nation lives and endears oh i'm just
02:42:35.200
right oh uh how i'm ha irani hi hi yes perfect perfect 100 i'm pretty sure i got it thank you
02:42:46.560
so much for that uh thank you so much for all the supporting us by the way father of chaos just uh
02:42:52.640
gifted five memberships to liberty politics thank you so much for doing that uh agent anderson with
02:42:58.160
the super chat saying trump won with millions of throw the bombs out votes voters republicans
02:43:05.200
won't get that support in 2026 or 2028 well this unless maybe i don't we don't know they might do
02:43:12.940
the same but maybe you're right we'll see thank you for that david david thank you so much for
02:43:18.700
the super chat saying one 300 million billion it's billion it's not million 300 billion of
02:43:24.820
investments are like stocks they are theoretical values until money is withdrawn invested
02:43:32.740
yeah and it's from private companies that will only go be invested if the islamic republic
0.95
02:43:37.860
opens their economy which will basically be the beginning of the end for irgc if that ever happens
02:43:44.500
and then to 24 million again it's 24 billion 24 billion dollars for us in assets uh iran is
02:43:52.500
overseas bank and institutions due to sanctions yeah and it belongs to the Iranian people so
02:43:58.180
i mean i said get it the 40 billion 24 billion dollars would be something that the islamic
02:44:03.460
republic has has to give something more valuable for it so i'm not you know mad over that but i
02:44:09.300
see what your your point is and there we have super super bakers or backers saying how can
02:44:16.580
thank you so much by the way saying how can you arm the people when it's not clear who supports who
02:44:21.380
big change you armed regime supporters big chance big chance yes yeah so guys that's why this that's
02:44:28.500
why the arming of the iranian people needs to happen under the supervision and coordination
02:44:35.620
with prince reza palavi um i actually talked to some important people and they uh gave me
02:44:43.540
the green light to talk about this this way um the the the people the the army needs to be
02:44:50.820
vetted like if you go and drop some weapons inside iran uh obviously you're going to be
02:44:55.380
arming the irgc the there needs to be a vetting process a training process and then the arming
02:45:01.620
process and it all needs to be done with the collaboration with princess of haliband his team
02:45:07.460
that's the only way to get this done there's no other way right you it shouldn't be you no other
02:45:12.100
method should be used and thank you but that's a valid point to bring up thank you so much for that
02:45:16.740
push-ups to the super chasing disagree but now i want mcdonald's okay well i disagree with that as
02:45:22.100
well because that's not good for you okay go eat something healthy uh you're doing push-ups so eat
02:45:28.020
healthy as well if you're doing extra if you're exercising also eat healthy um so see we can't
02:45:34.900
even agree on that push-ups thank you for the super chat saying erdogan is our next target
02:45:41.620
after rgc yeah let's go yeah i like how you think john gear uh and then we have another super shot
