| 0:00.0 | All right, there are new developments with what's going on in Iran, and depending on who you talk to, |
| 0:05.3 | it's either the greatest thing ever or we're all doomed. And so what we're going to do is we're |
| 0:10.2 | going to actually look through and talk about what's really going on, what's really happening here. |
| 0:15.9 | And so the first thing that we have to address, if we're going to do that, is we have to look at |
| 0:19.4 | what were the objectives in the first place. Because there's a lot of people that have now made this all |
| 0:24.8 | about regime change in Iran. And that's certainly something that I would personally like to see. |
| 0:29.2 | And I think Donald Trump would like to see. But it wasn't actually established as one of the |
| 0:34.4 | primary objectives of going in there in the first place, right? |
| 0:38.1 | So here's what it comes down to. And this goes with what President Trump had to say on March |

| 1:11.0 | to play? Well, as Donald Trump was laying out these objectives for conducting this operation, |
| 1:15.5 | he also said, if the Iranian people decide to rise up, this might be a great time to do it, |
