"That's what I said. I think we're going to maybe get something, but I want to give them every last chance before decapitation. I'll give people a chance. This is a big move. To do an attack that big on a country, I'd rather not do it. Now, we've already threw lots of large attacks, but they were..."
[0:00] That's what I said.
[0:02] I think we're going to maybe get something, but I want to give them every last chance before decapitation.
[0:07] I'll give people a chance. This is a big move.
[0:10] To do an attack that big on a country, I'd rather not do it.
[0:14] Now, we've already threw lots of large attacks, but they were normal large.
[0:22] Hopefully, they'll come to their senses.
[0:25] Now, President Trump's saying that he's showing no mercy as he warns Iran.
[0:28] This is their last chance before resuming a bigger and stronger strike.
[0:33] However, Tehran denies there are direct negotiations with the U.S. at this time.
[0:38] Rich Goldberg, senior advisor to the Foundation of Defense of Democracies.
[0:42] And, Rich, welcome back to our program. Good day to you.
[0:46] Why don't we cut through? Good day, Bill.
[0:48] Yeah, very quickly here. Is there communication?
[0:51] I am told there is a line to Tehran leadership. Is that the case, yes or no?
[0:55] I'm sure there is. Even if it's not direct at the moment,
[1:00] it's certainly through the Omanis, through the Qataris and others
[1:02] who are absolutely passing communications back and forth.
[1:06] And, by the way, it doesn't surprise me that they want a deal.
[1:09] Of course they want a deal.
[1:10] If you look at the situation today,
[1:11] the president should be very confident in his position.
[1:13] The blockade is working.
[1:15] According to senior administration officials,
[1:17] they're watching the financial picture very closely inside of Iran.
[1:21] It's falling apart.
[1:22] They describe it as a house of cards at the moment.
[1:24] Everything being leveraged on top of itself
[1:26] to try to save banks from collapsing,
[1:29] save industry from collapsing.
[1:31] In the meantime, inflation is nearing 100%,
[1:33] even more for food.
[1:34] The real has collapsed, their currency.
[1:36] Meanwhile, on the other side of the ledger,
[1:38] we are actually getting oil out of the strait.
[1:41] I know you see the reports about ships being hit.
[1:44] And, yes, that is happening.
[1:45] But at the same time,
[1:46] we're managing to get at least 5 million barrels per day
[1:49] out per night using various techniques
[1:52] under this Project Freedom
[1:54] that Central Command has put in place.
[1:56] So you look at both sides of the ledger here.
[1:58] They're falling apart economically,
[1:59] and we are getting some relief.
[2:01] You look at oil prices, you just mentioned it,
[2:03] the stock market going up today.
[2:05] They, of course, want to get some sort of relief.
[2:07] The question is,
[2:08] what are we willing to do in sort of a deal again?
[2:10] Are we going to go right back
[2:12] to the same sort of failed strategy of the MOU?
[2:14] Or are we going to say,
[2:16] you don't get a dime,
[2:17] you don't get any relief
[2:18] until we get all the concessions?
[2:20] Does a big strike force Iran to capitulate?
[2:22] If you're able to actually penetrate the command bunkers
[2:28] and get to people like Ahmad Bahidi,
[2:31] if you're actually able to penetrate the missile cities
[2:33] and destroy their remaining missile capabilities,
[2:37] it very well could.
[2:39] We have not been able to prove that ability to date.
[2:42] That's one of the reasons why I think we wrapped up
[2:44] Epic Fury when we did
[2:45] and went to the blockade originally.
[2:47] So at that point,
[2:49] your strategy in front of you
[2:51] is a strangulation strategy,
[2:52] which is working.
[2:54] You have obviously factions inside the regime here.
[2:57] Part of them sees the economy falling apart.
[3:00] Part of them wants to go down with the ship.
[3:02] The question is,
[3:03] is if the people who want to go down on the ship
[3:04] finally realize the ship is sinking
[3:06] and they need a way to stay afloat,
[3:08] to stay in charge here,
[3:09] because hopefully we're also doing something covertly
[3:12] with the Iranian people,
[3:13] which should also be freaking out the regime.
[3:15] But actually part of our success strategy.
[3:17] At that point,
[3:18] they're going to want to say,
[3:19] hey, please lift the blockade.
[3:21] We'll let more oil out.
[3:23] We shouldn't fall for it again.
[3:24] This can't be like Charlie Brown in the football with Lucy here.
[3:28] You show us the nuclear dust.
[3:29] You let the ships out.
[3:30] Then we give you some sort of relief here.
[3:32] Okay, General Joaquin was on yesterday.
[3:34] He's forcefully argued
[3:36] that the Gulf nations are speaking with two tongues
[3:39] and they're holding the U.S. back time and again.
[3:42] Meanwhile, here's the headline from your group, all right?
[3:44] China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea
[3:46] form axis of aggressors
[3:48] that could overwhelm the United States.
[3:50] Advance at one time.
[3:51] Reuters is saying
[3:52] 300 to 400 shoulder-fired missile launchers
[3:54] could be shipped from China to Iran,
[3:57] upwards of $70 million in value.
[3:59] I don't think the value is the important thing.
[4:01] I think the fact that
[4:02] if you have these shoulder-fired missiles,
[4:03] they could do great damage to American airplanes.
[4:06] Question for you on this.
[4:09] What does Russia and China do right now
[4:12] in terms of helping Iran
[4:14] specifically with the targeting
[4:16] of Gulf states, U.S. bases, etc., in that region
[4:20] that will help them and have helped them
[4:23] with their targeting to make it effective?
[4:26] Who's doing it more?
[4:28] Is it Russia or is it China?
[4:30] Or both?
[4:31] I would assume both are providing
[4:35] assistance to Iran at this point
[4:36] in whatever way they can.
[4:37] Both overland routes,
[4:39] which is why we should be putting more pressure
[4:41] on all neighbors to shut down their borders
[4:43] or face sanctions or tariff threats.
[4:46] At the same time, the Caspian Sea.
[4:48] We saw the Ukrainians take a shot
[4:49] at a vessel that was coming in there
[4:51] or leaving Iran there.
[4:53] So, obviously, both countries have an interest
[4:57] in trying to pin us down,
[4:58] trying to make this harder for us to complete.
[5:00] WE SHOULD OBVIOUSLY BE PRETTY
[5:02] TOUGH WITH BOTH CAPITALS IN
[5:03] RESPONSE.
[5:04] MORE SUPPORT FOR THE UKRAINIANS
[5:06] ON THE BATTLEFIELD AGAINST
[5:07] RUSSIA.
[5:07] OBVIOUSLY WE HAVE ECONOMIC
[5:08] LEVERAGE AGAINST THE CHINESE.
[5:10] IN THE END, WHEN WE TALK ABOUT
[5:12] THE GULF STAGE, YOU TALK ABOUT
[5:14] SAUDI ARABIA AND GENERAL KEENE'S
[5:15] COMMENTS, REMEMBER WE ALSO ARE
[5:17] RELYING ON SAUDI ARABIA WITH
[5:18] THEIR OVERLAND PIPELINES TO KEEP
[5:20] US IN THE GAME HERE.
[5:21] THE FACT THAT THEY'RE AT
[5:23] MAXIMUM CAPACITY MOVING THROUGH
[5:24] THE RED SEA ALSO ALLOWS US TO
[5:26] THEIR OVERLAND PIPELINES.
[5:30] WE'LL SEE WHAT GIVES IN THE NEXT
[5:32] 12 OR 24 HOURS.
[5:33] WE AWAIT.
[5:35] RICH GOLDBERG, THANK YOU FOR YOUR
[5:36] TIME, SIR.
[5:38] NICE TO HAVE YOU ON.
[5:39] THANKS, BELL.
