We've got President Trump at the G seven. He is holding a press conference, and let's jip it. It would go up. And every time we sayd something negative like guess what we're not going to be able to settle, it would go down. Very big, Peter, very. Very talking about the stock market. That was your something. And you know, I've studied presidents, some good, some bad, some great, not too many are great and really bad. We had one just recently. And the one president I did not want to be was the late great Herbert Hoover. I didn't want that and who knows what would have happened, but bad things happened. So the past few days have provided a chance to discuss the details of the deal with the closest friends and allies, heads of countries. They were all here, a lot of them, far more. Than the seven is, you know, a lot of them. And they put out a statement. I think President Macron, who did a great job, by the way, did a reallyvent him and bridget they did a great job. But they all put out statements saying they love this deal because they want to see it over and they love the fact that the hormone sophia. If we were going to drop bombs, I said, we went another month, the two three months, weeks, could be another three months, could be whatever what he had left that maybe nothing. But you don't have the Strait will never be opened because people that own billion dollar ships. These ships cost a billion dollars. They are like sailing ships or having their ships participate when you go up the coast and you go through the strait and there are rockets flying over your head. They want to protect their billion dollar investment. You wouldn't have oil for maybe years. These are stupid people, but nobody was tough with them, and nobody hit Solomoni. You know, when I hit Solomony, people thought that was the biggest thing to happen in the Middle East for fifty years. That was the biggest event. He was. He was the boss of Iran and respected, but he was a mad genius. He was a genius, the father of the roadside bomb. When you see young men and in some cases women mostly and walking around without legs, without arms, with a face that's been blown to smitherins, that's Slomoni ninety ninety six point two they say, or something ninety percent. That was Salomoni did it happened to come. From Iran, and I blew him up. You remember that I blew him up in the Valley of Death. He got off his plane and we followed him. And in all fairness, because they'd been wonderful to me, Israel, but they didn't want to do that attack. They were all set the night before the attack. Then for me, they didn't want to do it, so I had to make a decision. I made the decision to do it. But there was a joint venture, as we say in the real estate business, there was a joint venture between Israel and US. We studied it for a month. We knew what plane he was going to be on almost a month before. He only traveled on commercial airline as the big ones with lots of people, because they. Knew we wouldn't shoot him down a verse work. We knew he was going to be on that plane, followed him and then Israel in for me that they won't do it, and I had to make a decision. I had some very good generals and not the ones you see in television, very good and I want to thank also Pete Hegsath and General Raisin Kane. Who's phenomenal. Okay, these guys are phenomenal. They can't be better, but I have some good generals. And I said to them, well, if Isual is not going to. Do it, we're all prepared. Do we do it. Do you like doing it or not? He said, sir, if you want to do it, we can do it. How well, we'll do it just as well or better do it ourselves. We don't need anybody. So we took out sealmony, one of the biggest events to happen to the Middle East, maybe ever. But they say fifty years, they said Christ. Then I was with the. Prime Minister of Pakistan. He said, it's maybe the biggest event that has ever taken places that nobody could believe it so that's when it started. It didn't start three or four or five weeks ago, and Obama wouldn't do it. What Obama did was he did the POA. He loaded up a plaza. Yes, can you tell me what's in the MLU. Seven hundred million dollars in green cash from banks all over Washington, Maryland and Virginia. They were stripped of all their cash. They had no cash to. Do payrolls went into a Boeing seven fifty seven, a wonderful plane. Then they flew it to I Ran, and they gave it out to people. They bribed people. They thought they were going to get it done. Then they gave billions and billions of dollars after that, and they got a deal that was a road to a nuclear weapon. I get so angry. I guess I'm allowed to get angry when I watched these the Democrats, they talk about it all the time. We had this deal done. You had a deal that was going to give them legally a nuclear weapon, and if that happened, Israel would have been blown away. In an all fairness to beben you know who happened happens to be a good man gets a little excited sometimes, but he happens to be a very good man. We've had an amazing partnership. He's been an amazing Prime minister. We have a little dispute over Lebanon, and I say, you can do it a little softer touch, Bybe. You don't have to knock down a building every time somebody walks into it. That's from his bullah. But it's been an amazing partnership. But he will say we're the big partner and he's the very small partner, and that's true. So he came to the country and he begged Barack Hussein Obama, the president, not to do the jc POA. He said it could be the end of Israel, and it would have been if I didn't come along, and Obama didn't listen to him. Phebe actually went to Congress and pleaded with them, and he got nowhere, and they had this horrible deal that was horrible for Israel, horrible for Israel, and that's where it stood. And then I came along and I terminated that deal that had very little time left. You know, it was a short term deal. You know, with countries you need hundreds of years, you don't need eight years and nine years. This isn't like you signing a lisa on a candy store the corner. You need hundreds of years. This was a short term lease. It expired long ago. Had I let it run it expired, you wouldn't have been around, a lot of people wouldn't have been around. But Israel would have been terminated. I think the whole Middle East would have been terminated. You saw that when everybody was shocked, and all these missiles they were aimed at these different places, Guitar, Saudi Arabia, UAE think of it, Bahrain, Kuwait. They got hit. Nobody thought that was even Ni. I didn't think it was going to happen. They didn't think it was going to happen. They were going to take out the entire Middle East, including Israel. And if they had a nuclear weapon, they would have used it with it within. Moments after getting it. So I made it very tough for them when I terminated the Barack Hussein Obama Catasaphy jc POA one of the worst deals. NAFTA might have been worse, but that was worse economically. It was really dangerous what he did. He gave them everything, including a lot of money, which we don't give them. By the way, just in case you have any question, we'll be giving this out so you can read it and you can see that it is. A memorandum of understanding. That it doesn't get done in sixty days. It's a right we go back to bombing. You know, I don't want to do that because it's so good, but we might have to because we're never going to let them have a nuclear weapon. But they've agreed not. To, and you'll see that very clearly in the agreement. Say, but then the second phase of that was they were building, or they were enriching material. As they say, I call it nuclear dust. They were enriching material under granite mountains, granted being for those not in the construction business, granted being a very strong the strongest stone. It's not as pretty as marble, but it's much more. It's much stronger. It's a lot stronger. Like the new. Granite I put on the stairs of the White House going to the Oval office, the black ground. It it's rated one million years plus. No, marble's right at that. Marble's right in one hundred years if if it's outside. So these are granite mountains and the b twos came along and they hit those air shafts in the dark at one o'clock in the morning with no moon. They had a beam going right up everywhere. Those guys at a job, and then they were criticized by certain members of the press like CNN for possibly not doing that much damach and it turned out that the damage was far ger. Those mountains collapsed right on top of everything. Nobody's going to get that for a long time unless we. Want to get it. We will get it. We're the only ones that can. And they say, China has the equipment to get it, and we have the equipment to get. It, and it's actually not valuable, not. A lot of value, but would like to get it psychologically, but nobody's touching it. We also have cameras. That's what Space Force is. We have the best. We have the greatest military in the world, by the way, but am proud of Space Force because I started it. We have Space Force cameras on every single door. Every well there are no. Doors have been pretty well shattered, but every area of that. If somebody walks in and he's got a badge with his name owner like Mohammed's something which is about a fifty to fifty guess Mohammed something. They can tell the name, they can give you a serial number. We can see things. You wouldn't believe the quality of the. Stuff that we have. That's why we've been so successful. That's why our blockade will. Go down to the animals of history. Is being unbelievable. Nobody's ever seen a blockade like that. Just it's like a steel wall. So what happened is we then terminated that and I call it the nuclear. Dust and that was the end of it. But if we didn't hit that with the B two bombers, or if it wasn't successful, they would have. Had a nuclear weapon, a nuclear. Bomb at a very high level, not the highest, but it would have been a very high level. We have much bigger, but we hope that we're never going to have to use it. We have the most Russia has. Second. China is very far behind, but going to catch up. Unfortunately, you know they're catching up, but we are right. So the president is at the G seven. I would just like to see the MOLU. That's maybe we're going to get a copy of it. I don't know. You know, stories are powerful. They help us make sense of things, to understand experiences.

Of course, he was at the UFC fight and then he flew over to France for the G seven, so he's been meetings over there, probably a little bit of jet leg. He's also like eighty years old, so and so yeah, that's he's definitely gotten weaker. And you could really tell when you go back and pull some of the old like twenty fifteen, twenty sixteen campaign speeches and such, you could definitely tell he's slowed down. I mean not to sound all Biden eighty here, but you know, I'm sure behind the scenes he's like doing jumping jacks and running circles around his twenty two year old staffers, just like Joe Biden was doing. Gary says Trump is a comedian. He will praise and take a jab at someone in the same sentence. It's truly amazing. I have said this for years. He is. Like a radio talk show host. He is like that's his riffing, and you know, you give him a couple of sentences to read and then he just riffs off of that. Like I have some experience in this realm, so I recognize what he does when he gets up there. And this is all off script, as you can probably tell but he's not running from a script. And well, hang on a second. Now he's looking down it. Maybe he's reading some of the MoU can we pull it back up. I think he's reading something. No president in history has ever been tougher on a round than I have. And they know that. And by the way, if they don't. Honor the agreement or some things aren't even mentioned in the agreement, it's a memorandum of understanding, but we have an understanding of certain things without writing it. And if they don't. Honor that, we'll probably go back to bombing them until they honor it. You know, it's amazing what bombs can do. So I say it, the Obama. Deal was a road to okay, all right, Now he's back on the JCPOA stuff. I thought he's got a he's got like a binder or something, not a binder of women. No, that was Mitt Romney, and that's why he couldn't be president because he wanted to hire women. Democrats were like, that's outrageous. We're for women, and y he's got like some what are those things called? Is that a folio? Is that? What that is that? What that? You would refer to that as a folio, right, it's like the it's like leather bound and you open it up and it has some papers in it. A folio. We're going with that, and so he was reading from it. So I thought maybe we could hear some of the details of the memorandum of misunderstanding, but no, the good Jeff says, yawn. Jamie says, this is all just gibberish. Dean is making fun of the president, who's putting us to sleep, all right, So yeah, we don't know what the deal is. However, as I said yesterday, there is a sixty day and he mentioned this in his comments right, that there are sixty days now for them to continue negotiations. So essentially this kind of sounds like a ceasefire, which hezbolage is violated by the way they just shot a bunch of more drones into Israel, which is because I was told that the MoU Is signed right, that they already signed it, and then they were I saw a report here also this morning that they are looking to hold the signing ceremony, which is currently scheduled for Friday, but now they're looking to move it up to today. Not sure why. I mean, like, if it's already been digitally signed. I don't know anyway. I mean. The reason I say this is because like Axios and Bloomberg and CNN, they claim to have the fourteen points from the MoU, and the very first bullet point, number one says Islamic Republic of Iran and the United States, together with their allies in the current war, declare an immediate and permanent end to the war on all fronts, including Lebanon, on which to me, if you have signed that, I guess on behalf of your allies. That's Hesbelah. So why is Hesbela still shooting at Israel? I think we know the answer to that. Email from j says petemus are all the rage in business because it sounds like you have a contract but nothing is really binding. Sounds great to shareholders, but it's just a smoke screen. Yes, MOUs are not binding, and like that's why I am of the impression that all of this is about the midterms. That's what I think. I said that I laid this out yesterday. You got this sixty day window for the MoU to be discussed and such for talks to occur. Nobody, nobody engaged in any fighting and the straight of horror moze or Ohmer will be open, right. And Trump even made a reference to this is that he didn't want to be president Hoover and he said he like the stock market goes down and you know, goes up based on what he's saying and what's happening and all of this. He didn't want to cause economic catastrophe and everything else. And so I think that this is a stall tactic. Again, as I went over yesterday and we've talked about before, the Iranian regime under the current conditions are losing somewhere in the neighborhood of about five hundred million dollars a day, and so they are not able to support themselves. They cannot pay their military, right they like the inflations through the roof. Their currency is completely worthless, like they're they're on the verge of economic collapse, and so the pressure just keeps building and building and building and building. So a sixty day reprieve, yes, their military to move around and resupply, I guess if they can. But the sixty day window would then be followed by like another sixty day negotiation period, and that puts you somewhere in mid to late October, and as Trump said in his comments there that if the Iranians don't honor the MoU then we'll start bombing again. Gary says the more Trump talks, the more it sounds like the MoU is to open oil flows and allow the US to strike or do tactical takeouts in the future. Trump talking about space force and the strike on Solomani are a warning to Iranian leadership to plain ice or be targeted. Yeah, I mean what did he say there? He said, basically, we can read your ID badges from space, Okay, like we can see your name. He said Mohammed something they made some joke about. That's probably like half of the people whatever named Mohammed ha haha. Right. But the message there is that we can read, we can identify you, we can read the name badge that you are wearing when you enter these buildings. We know where you are. We can reach out and take you out like we took out Solomoni, like we took out all of your leadership, Like we can do this again whenever we want to. So this is your opportunity to play nice, to just not be you know, crazy g hottists that are trying to usher in the end of the world, and that's going to be really really hard for these Iranian leaders. I mean it is, this is going to be really difficult for them. Okay, the heart wants what it wants, and they really do believe that if they are able to wipe out all of the Jews, this will usher in the return of Jesus, who will kill all the Christians. So oh, and then the twelfth theme rises up out of that well that he fell into or something a couple of centuries ago. So that like, that's the that's the deal. And I don't think I'm not sure if Trump I don't think I get the sense he has not really internalized that. I think he approaches everything like it's a business negotiation, Like what what is it that you are interested in? Don't you want to have prosperity power, right? You want to? You want to you'r a regime to remain intact. You know, you want a decent place to live, you want to have cafes or something. Wouldn't you like a resort? Remember he promised that to uh Kim Jong lun, right rocketman in North Korea. Like that guy's some Stalinist hermit like he didn't want anybody visiting. He doesn't want resorts. He's also pitched the same thing to the Gossins again, a Jihati death cult, like they they are not motivated by these things. So I don't know if I don't know if he has internalized that. Ian says, it occurs to me the memorandum of understanding is purposefully vague for the sake of public consumption. We know Mulla's won't even make a deal at gunpoint. Makes it easier to say the weird beards broke it and to accordingly pound them to a fruit juicy pulp. David says, there's no stream of conscience like or consciousness like a trump stream of consciousness. I heard it's the best stream. Nothing like it. It's it's unlike anything that's ever seen, anybody's ever seen before. Let me go over to Aaron McLain. He is the host of the School of War podcast. He's a national security analyst for CBS News as well. He's a columnist at The Free Press. Also, he says, here's how he looks at the purported MoU What. Is meant to happen immediately? What is meant to happen within thirty days, and then what's expected to happen within sixty days A right, So he breaks it down and again this is just based on what outlets claim the MoU states, but we don't know for certain because we haven't gotten a copy of it from our government. So immediately it would call for a permanent end to the war on all fronts, including Lebanon. The United States will lift its naval blockade. The Islamic Republic of Iran will immediately take steps to ensure that the movement of merchant ships from the Persian Gulf to the Sea of Oman and vice versa is resumed. The United States Treasury Department will issue waivers for exports of Iranian crude oil, petrochemical products and their derivatives, and all related services including banking, insurance, transportation, and the like. Okay, so this is freeing up large sectors of their economy. Then within thirty days, both the US and Iran have thirty days to get traffic back to normal as part of the lifting of their respective blockades. Not sure how either party could really control that, but the US also undertakes to withdraw its forces from the surrounding areas this is in the clause about the US blockade. It's not clear what surrounding areas actually means. So there is that, and this is why people are saying, don't listen to what they're saying, watch what our military assets are doing. There was an interesting tidbit I picked up yesterday. I forget where I saw it now because I was watching and. Reading so many things. But during the twelve day war Operation Midnight Hammer, that we had positioned our fleet. In the. Pathway of the likely Iranian missile Salvos towards Israel. So when Israel started attacking Iran right before we flew in and dropped the bombs and all of that on the nuclear facilities, we had already mobilized, and we had set up our assets in a way that had Iran responded to Israel right out of the gate, we could have then claimed that they came close to hitting us, and that, oh my gosh, you launched a bunch of missiles over our ships, so like we took them out, we can shoot them down and then we can respond, right, So this idea that we got dragged into something is just is just false. And then so you got the immediate you got the thirty days, and then mcclaim says, you have the sixty day window to negotiate and reach a final agreement with a maximum period of sixty days, and that is extendable by mutual consent. So if both parties agree to extend it after sixty days, that's fine. Formulation of an implementation mechanism for a comprehensive plan agreed upon by both parties for the rehabilitation and economic development of the Islamic Republic of Iran, while ensuring financing of at least three hundred billion dollars. Okay, so this is not an immediate release of funds, but it's the formulation of an implementation mechanism for a comprehensive plan agreed upon by both parties. Next, the fate of enriched material and the fate of all other mutually agreed nuclear related issues, including Iran's nuclear needs, will be adequately addressed in a final agreement. So not part of this MoU agreeing to a schedule for all types of sanctions currently facing the Islamic Republic to be ended, regarding an unclear timeline in light of any progress of negotiations towards a final agreement, frozen or restricted funds and assets will be released and made fully available, and implementation mechanism will be established to oversee the successful implementation and future commitment to the final agreement. A binding UN Security Council resolution approving the final agreement, and he says, bottom line here immediately or within thirty days, Iran gets permanent end to war, including Lebanon sanctions waivers, a lifting of the US blockade, and a US withdrawal of forces to where in which areas We're not sure Iran gives. The Iran gives the ending of its own blockade of the Strait. All other issues are then punted to the sixty day extendable vague future timeline for the nuclear program. Iran merely agrees. To maintain the status quo while talks continue and then to ultimately agree to something. I don't think this thing is actually set up to succeed. I think this is a stall tactic. That's the way it looks to me. Trump's still going. He is still going, he said Trump. Mistakes are made in war. That's the chir on, that's the sort it says on Fox News. That's true. Mistakes are made in war. On the unfreezing of the money. He says, we've taken a lot of their money. It's not our money. At a certain point in time, I guess we're gonna have to give it back, okay. Right. On missiles, he says, we'll be working with Gulf nations on parallel talks covering non nuclear issues, including ballistic missiles and regional support networks. Iran will have missiles. Other countries in the region have them too. You can't allow one country to have missiles while denying them to another. You know what, though, I feel like, no, I know, I feel like I disagree with that one. I think you can, especially if the country that wants all the missiles has been flinging them at all of their neighbors. I think everybody in the region gets to say, you know what, you don't get to have any more missiles. You're done with the missiles. You obviously cannot control yourself, so you don't get missiles. But that's going to require the golf coalition countries, the golfies, they're gonna have to step up. They're gonna actually have to get their hands dirty on some of this stuff, and they have not yet proven willing to do much in that regard. I mean, I appreciate when some of them have on occasion, to a limited extent, you know, stemy, the Iranian black market, currency trading and all of that stuff they're you know, the way that they get money into their economy. I appreciate those efforts, what you know, limited as they may be. But if you. Really want the threat right next door to you to not be a threat to you anymore, at some point, you're going to have to do something about that threat. Missiles are not that's the main issue. He says. They can strike targets, but they don't threaten the world the way nuclear weapons do. Okay, well, yes that's true, but that is that's no comfort to the neighbors who could see a barrage of tens of thousands of missiles raining down on them, any of those golfies and Israel for that matter. Right, I feel like somebody should have given him a script. He could have just read the MoU. That's all I'm asking for, Just I want to know what's in the MoU. All right, that'll do it for this episode. Thank you so much for listening.
