00:00You have previously expressed concern that the Iranian regime was ultimately lured into direct

00:06confrontation with Israel. Would you be able to elaborate on this? And you also just mentioned

00:13war there. How close do you think we are to another world war?

00:18First of all, on the second part, I don't think we are anywhere near to a world war because nobody

00:23wants it. And right now, the way President Trump is running the world order is that the military

00:30superpowers make decisions. So it's mainly United States, Russia, and China. Now, China doesn't want

00:38higher oil prices, as you were discussing in previous conversation. Russia is more capitalist

00:46than all other countries. So they want to get back and improve their economy. So they want an end to

00:51Ukraine war. And they need American support in that respect. And what President Trump wants was

01:00peace and prosperity, because his entire policy is based on trade rather than wars. And this is the

01:07new era. On the other hand, you get regimes like Iran for the last 46. Now we are into its 47th year.

01:14They have done nothing but export violence, terrorism, revolution. They thrive on warmongering

01:23and wars. They have actually introduced cheap warfare to the entire region. Previous to Iran regime,

01:33the Iran Islamic Republic regime, there wasn't cheap warfare. They invented cheap warfare. And they spread it

01:40even into Africa and other regions. So they are the cause of all the mayhem and all the chaos

01:49and all the miseries in the Middle East. And once they disappear, Middle East will prosper even more.
