Transcript [00:00] So, the Iranians are getting beaten [00:03] pretty hard, but but it could very well [00:07] be that their strategy for survival that [00:10] I talked about before the war even [00:12] started is actually working. Now, I'm [00:14] going to explain exactly what I mean. [00:16] We're going to go through Iranian regime [00:19] media. I've done this in a number of [00:21] videos before. It's so important to read [00:23] Iranian regime media to understand [00:25] what's actually happening. Um, and we're [00:28] going to get I'm going to go through a [00:30] number of stories that have been the [00:32] headline stories, the front page stories [00:35] stories in Iran regime media over the [00:38] last day or two. And we're going to see [00:40] from that that it's very clear where [00:43] they want this to go and what their [00:44] strategy is. They come right out and say [00:46] it. And therefore, we don't have to kind [00:48] of we don't even really have to do that [00:49] much reading between the lines. But it's [00:51] so important to understand that because [00:53] it'll help us understand the stage that [00:54] the war has just moved into and and [00:58] where it could be going in the coming [00:59] days. This is this is very this is a [01:02] really important video. I think it's one [01:03] of the most important videos I've made [01:04] since the war started. So stay with me [01:06] all the way to the end, please. And uh [01:09] and then I'm going to want to hear what [01:10] you have to say about it.

All right, [02:30] let's get to this to the uh to Iranian [02:32] regime media. So, I've pointed out [02:35] mentioned this in a few previous videos [02:37] that in when it comes to totalitarian [02:39] regimes, their official regime media [02:41] outlets will often have as the top news. [02:44] You notice it says here top news, this [02:46] is the front page today of WANA, the [02:48] Iranian regime outlet in English and the [02:51] top news story. And I say that kind of [02:53] like I'm saying that that way because [02:55] it's not really news as you'll see. [02:57] Their top news story, their top headline [03:00] is an article called the art of war [03:03] fighting in the Iranian perspective. [03:06] Now, that obviously does not sound like [03:07] a news piece. I' I've mentioned this [03:09] before. Opinion pieces as the lead [03:13] article. Even in print media on the [03:15] front page of the paper, you'll have [03:16] this in totalitarian regimes where [03:18] you'll have a an opinion piece as the [03:20] lead story because it's not really about [03:22] news. It's about putting out messaging. [03:24] Okay, so here's the piece that they [03:26] wrote. Okay, this is that piece. The art [03:28] of war fighting in Iranian perspective [03:30] and look what the article goes into. War [03:33] is not defined merely by its beginning [03:35] or its end, nor is it limited to tactics [03:37] and destruction. [03:39] In many historical perspectives, war has [03:42] been viewed as a form of crisis [03:44] management, an art whose objective is to [03:47] guide conflict toward a stable and [03:50] controllable outcome. [03:54] I'm going to read that again. That is [03:56] the opening line of this piece. War is [03:59] not defined [04:02] by its beginning or end or limited or or [04:04] tactics of destruction. [04:07] Rather, it has to be for it has to be [04:09] viewed as a form of crisis management [04:11] where the objective is to guide the [04:13] conflict toward a stable and [04:15] controllable outcome. You understand [04:17] what they're saying here? What they're [04:18] saying is, look, look, you could destroy [04:20] this and destroy that and you can and [04:22] you can stand in front of the microphone [04:23] at the Pentagon and talk about how many [04:26] of our ships you've destroyed and how [04:28] many of our missiles you've destroyed, [04:30] but it's not about that. It's not about [04:32] the tactics and destruction. [04:34] It's about crisis management and guiding [04:37] the conflict to a stable and [04:40] controllable outcome. And then it gives [04:42] gives a a historical example from [04:44] Persian history. And then it says within [04:47] this framework, modern warfare is not [04:49] seen solely as a contest of advanced [04:51] technology such as drones, missiles or [04:54] fighter jets. the management of [04:56] escalation, [04:57] not minimizing escalation, the [04:59] management of escalation, turning up or [05:01] down the volume on it, and the [05:03] sequencing of actions on the battlefield [05:05] are also central components. [05:08] Okay? [05:10] And [05:12] a little further down, look what it says [05:14] here. Regionally, several actors are [05:16] involved in the broader dynamics of the [05:18] conflictbah. And look what it look how [05:20] it defines. This is just a nice little [05:22] sidebar. [05:25] and they put in parenthesis a Lebanese [05:28] political and armed group that has been [05:30] involved in confrontations with Israel [05:31] since the 1980s. That's how they call. [05:33] Now, is not a Lebanese political and [05:35] armed group. It is an Iranian outpost. [05:38] It is an Iranian group. I've said this [05:39] before in other in other videos and [05:41] interviews. [05:43] Is not a proxy of Iran. It's not a [05:46] Lebanese group. [05:48] Is Iran. Hassan Narallah gets killed. [05:51] head of the his successor is appointed [05:53] in Tehran by the Iranian leadership is [05:57] not like the Houthis it's not like Hamas [05:59] that that are actual proxies independent [06:01] organizations is Iran okay so but it's [06:04] interesting that they want to distance [06:05] themselves from that and they call it a [06:07] Lebanese political group so they say has [06:09] engaged in clashes along Lebanon Israel [06:11] border in Iraq armed groups have [06:13] targeted US military bases and the pop [06:16] and the and the possible involvement of [06:18] the popular mobilization forces a [06:20] coalition of Iraqi paramilitary groups [06:22] which are also funded by Iran in ground [06:25] confrontations has been discussed in [06:27] Yemen Houthi movement the Houthi [06:30] movement has the capacity to influence [06:32] maritime routes see what they're showing [06:34] is there's es these are all remember it [06:38] says earlier in the piece that it's [06:39] about managing escalation right managing [06:43] escalation [06:45] the management of escalation and [06:47] sequencing is what matters so now [06:49] they're giving us the options for the [06:52] for escalation. You have the Houthis who [06:55] who have the capacity to influence [06:57] maritime routes. You have Iraq. They're [07:00] who are discussing ground [07:02] confrontations. [07:04] You have [07:06] Okay. And then it says another critical [07:08] strategic location is the straight of [07:10] Hormuz. [07:12] Control over shipping traffic in this [07:14] straight can have a direct impact on [07:15] global energy markets and oil prices. A [07:18] central element of this approach is the [07:21] careful management of escalation. [07:23] They've now said that twice in the [07:24] piece. Once near the top and now once [07:27] near the end. Calibrating responses [07:30] proportionally to an opponent's actions. [07:35] This strategic management is [07:36] particularly associated with Iran's [07:38] former leader Ali Kami who was credited [07:40] with designing this method. In this [07:43] method, I'm sorry, in this view, this is [07:46] the final words of this news item. In [07:49] this view, war is not merely a sequence [07:51] of military operations, but a process of [07:54] timing, decision-making, and escalation [07:57] management. Third time they've used the [07:59] phrase, an approach often described as [08:01] art of warfighting. This is the front [08:04] page top news item in today's WA. [08:09] Right, let's go to the next one. I'll [08:10] sum this all up at the end. Let me just [08:12] go through the stories and then we have [08:14] a story from yesterday. This was the top [08:18] story in WA yesterday. So today the top [08:20] story is the art of war fighting in [08:23] Iranian perspective. Yesterday the top [08:26] story [08:29] was this. [08:31] Iran's strategy in the Ramadan war. [08:33] That's their new name for the war by the [08:34] way. Iran's strategy in the Ramadan war [08:38] control the straight of Hormuz and [08:40] global impacts. So here they literally [08:43] have a piece on the front page saying [08:45] this is our strategy. From the beginning [08:48] of the Ramadan war, Iran operationally [08:51] closed the straight of Hormuz. Data [08:52] indicates a significant reduction in [08:54] traffic. Several oil tankers attempting [08:57] to pass through the straight without [08:58] Iran's authorization were hit by [09:00] missiles or drones and sank. This led [09:02] other vessels to refrain from taking the [09:04] risks. As a result, oil and LG exports [09:07] were stopped leading to a rise in energy [09:09] prices in global markets. Iran is well [09:11] aware of the strategic importance of [09:14] controlling the straight of Hormuz and [09:15] the pressure it exerts on its enemies. [09:18] Rising energy prices have have had [09:20] devastating consequences for the US and [09:22] its allies. While Arab countries in the [09:25] region remain highly vulnerable, until [09:27] now, Iran had not used this leverage [09:29] with only Yemen in the Babel Mandeb [09:31] straight taking similar steps to support [09:33] Palestine and impose costs on the [09:36] Israeli regime. An effort that proved [09:38] successful. That's very interesting. [09:40] That could be we could pick that apart [09:42] what they mean by that being successful. [09:44] The attacks by the US and the Israeli [09:46] regime supported by regional countries [09:48] led Iran to employ the leverage of the [09:52] straight of Hormuz. By the end of the [09:54] war, this leverage should transform into [09:58] a stable equation in the region, an [10:03] exchange or security equation in return [10:06] for economic benefit between Iran, [10:08] regional countries, and third party [10:10] actors not aligned with the US such as [10:13] China. There it is. That's the key. [10:15] That's the key passage in this p in this [10:17] piece. By the end of the war, this is [10:20] they're telling us where they're hoping [10:21] this goes. By the end of the war, this [10:25] leverage should transform into a [10:27] stability and exchange of security [10:29] equation and economic benefit between [10:32] Iran and regional countries and third [10:35] party actors not aligned with the US. [10:37] And it mentions China specifically. Iran [10:40] by providing security services for safe [10:42] passage through the straight of Hormuz [10:44] could host economic cooperation [10:46] including investment and infrastructure. [10:48] Now let's pause for a second. This has [10:50] been a big topic and it's the topic of [10:51] this video is the security passage that [10:55] Iran provides security p for services [10:59] for safe passage through the straight of [11:01] Hormuz. [11:03] Why? Why do we need security services [11:05] for safe passage through the straight of [11:07] Hormuz? [11:09] What's the threat? You know what the [11:11] threat is? Iran. This is exactly mafia [11:15] tactics, right? What's the mafia [11:17] protection classic? [11:20] You walk into the store in the [11:22] neighborhood, the mobster says, you [11:23] know, uh, if you pay us x, I think you [11:25] need to be paying us protection because [11:27] otherwise something could happen to your [11:28] store, [11:30] right? And then you pay the protection [11:32] and you're protected from the very [11:34] people who, if you didn't pay the [11:35] protection, would be attacking you. It's [11:37] literally the same thing. The broad [11:39] framework of this occasion of this [11:41] equation [11:43] should be determined and agreed [11:46] upon the peace negotiations at the end [11:48] of the war between Iran, regional [11:49] countries and other stakeholders with [11:51] its details operationalized once the war [11:54] concludes. A critical point to note is [11:56] that this equation and its execution [11:58] mechanisms must be independent of the [12:00] west dominated economic and financial [12:02] system. The guarantee of protecting the [12:05] rights of the Iranian people lies in [12:06] Iran's military power to close the [12:09] strait of Hormuz. Once again, end of end [12:11] of story. Again, this was the front page [12:13] yesterday. Okay. And then we have this [12:15] story which is uh from today. No oil [12:19] will pass through the straight of Hormuz [12:20] for US or Israel. The spokesman for the [12:23] Katam al- Ania central headquarters said [12:25] that Iran will never allow shipments [12:27] benefiting the United States to pass [12:29] through the straight of Hormuz. And it [12:31] quotes this uh he quotes this spokesman [12:34] saying that. Then he he added that they [12:36] have repeatedly warned Donald Trump who [12:38] he described as the master of the [12:39] Zionists who abuse children and the MSAD [12:42] that you start the war but we will [12:43] determine how it ends. He emphasized [12:46] that the armed forces of the of the [12:48] Islamic Republic because they hold the [12:50] initiative in the straight of Hormuz do [12:52] not need to close the strait. Closure of [12:54] the straight would be the result of [12:56] conditions imposed on the world by the [12:58] United States. We want to blame the US [13:00] and Israel for the closing of the [13:02] straits. We repeat with strength that we [13:04] will never allow even one liter of oil [13:06] to pass through the straight of Hormuz [13:08] for the benefit of the United States. He [13:10] continued that any vessel whose ship or [13:12] oil cargo belongs to the US or the [13:14] Zionist regime will be a legitimate [13:17] target. He also said that the strategy [13:19] of hiding behind neighboring countries [13:21] of Islamic Iran and Muslim nations in [13:24] West Asia has expired. [13:28] Huh? [13:30] Okay. And then he says, and look at [13:32] there's a bolded section in this piece. [13:35] Iran's policy of reciprocal response has [13:38] ended and has been replaced with a [13:40] policy of blow after blow until the [13:43] enemy is fully punished and regretful. [13:47] Okay. He also referred to the presence [13:49] of US naval vessels in regional waters, [13:52] claiming that when they once approached [13:53] closer, they were forced to retreat. [13:56] And look what he says down here. Quote, [13:58] "If the war spreads in the region, [14:00] expect oil prices of 200 per barrel," he [14:03] said, adding that oil prices are tied to [14:05] regional security, which he blamed on [14:07] the US and its allies. [14:11] Okay, so this is today. This is a [14:14] statement put out today. This is in the [14:16] space of two days. We have these three [14:19] articles and we have this one also from [14:22] yesterday. IRGC spokesman, Iran's armed [14:26] forces await the US aircraft carrier [14:28] Gerald Al Gerald R. Ford. [14:31] The lying president of the United States [14:33] in order to escape the pressure of war [14:35] and end the desperation of American [14:36] forces has falsely claimed that the [14:38] power of the armed forces of the Islamic [14:40] Republic has ended. That's a response to [14:42] Trump saying that that we're pretty much [14:44] done wiping out their wiping out their [14:46] their army. [14:48] But then [14:49] it gets to the key point. [14:52] The spokesman Naeni rejected Trump's [14:54] assertion that commercial and military [14:56] ships are operating normally in the [14:57] region and passing easily through the [14:59] straight of Hormuz. He has claimed that [15:01] commercial and military ships are [15:02] present in the region and are easily [15:04] passing through. That's what Trump said. [15:06] While in reality, American warships, [15:08] vessels, and all aircraft have moved [15:09] more than a thousand kilometers away [15:11] from the region to remain safe from [15:13] Iran's powerful missiles and drones. The [15:15] cowardly and fearful naval soldiers of [15:17] Trump have increased their distance to [15:20] more than a thousand kilometers after [15:21] firing four missiles at the aircraft [15:23] carrier USS Abraham Lincoln. [15:26] Okay. And then he talks about the Isra [15:28] about the American soldiers fleeing the [15:30] region. Talks about the missile [15:34] launchers [15:37] and yeah commenting on the assassinating [15:42] of Iran's leadership. He said Trump [15:45] attempted in the shortest possible time [15:46] and with the least cost to paralyze the [15:48] Islamic Republic internally and force it [15:51] to surrender by assassinating Iran's [15:52] lead leadership and senior military [15:54] commanders, implying that it's not [15:56] working. Okay? And then [16:01] we get down to oil prices. Trump began [16:04] this war by lying to the American [16:05] people, but now our responses have left [16:07] him confused and helpless. Before the [16:09] war, he claimed he could control oil [16:11] prices. While in the first nine days of [16:14] the war, oil prices nearly doubled, even [16:16] today he is using artificial means to [16:18] escape the astronomical oil prices [16:20] affecting his partners. [16:23] Okay. And it goes on and mentions oil [16:26] again. [16:29] Then he says the armed forces of the [16:32] Islamic Republic are waiting for the US [16:33] naval fleet in the region of the [16:35] straight of Hormuz and are awaiting the [16:36] aircraft carrier Gerald Ford. Like you [16:38] know we're ready for you. We're gonna [16:40] hit it. Okay. So, [16:43] and then we have this story. This is [16:45] also from yesterday. US energy secretary [16:47] deletes Hormuz's escort claim after firm [16:50] IRGC response. So, what happened was um [16:54] Chris Wright, energy secretary, posted [16:58] on X that an oil tanker escorted by the [17:00] US Navy passed through the straight of [17:01] Hormuz and then he quickly deleted it. [17:03] It turned out that it wasn't exact, it [17:04] wasn't true. The White House walked it [17:06] back and they loved this uh over in uh [17:10] in Iran. They were jumping all over this [17:11] and saying, "You see, you see, you see, [17:14] they're afraid. Mr. Trump, if you are [17:15] not bluffing and you are not afraid, [17:17] send the US, USS Abraham Lincoln to the [17:19] straight of horses and escort a tanker." [17:21] Like, let's see what you can do. And [17:23] look at this. The end, look at what they [17:25] end the news item with. Oil prices [17:27] fluctuated sharply tonight. After a [17:29] tweet by the US Secretary of Energy [17:31] claiming an oil tanker was being [17:33] escorted through the straight of Hormuz, [17:35] prices fell by 8.3%. After the tweet was [17:38] denied and deleted, prices rose by 5.5%. [17:41] And they rose by another 8.5% following [17:44] claims that the straight of Hormuz had [17:46] been mined. Okay, so they're leaning [17:49] heavily into this whole straight of [17:51] Hormuz um uh narrative. Trump officials [17:55] mixed around messages prompt more [17:57] volatility. This is from the Japan [17:58] Times, right? Energy markets whipsawed [18:02] for a second consecutive day on Tuesday, [18:03] that's yesterday, as investors raced to [18:05] interpret rapidly shifting comments from [18:07] the administration of US US President [18:09] Donald Trump over the war in Iran. And [18:12] it talks about the up and down of the of [18:15] the of the prices, [18:18] right? [18:20] The conflict has spread across the [18:21] Middle East and pushed the region's [18:22] energy giants to a crisis point. Retail [18:25] gasoline and diesel prices have surged [18:26] around the world, becoming an [18:28] election-year vulnerability in the US [18:31] while prompting some Asian governments [18:32] to restrict fuel usage. Okay. And then [18:36] today we have live updates. This is from [18:40] a AP from a few minutes ago where it [18:43] says uh this for sorry from a few hours [18:45] ago. [18:46] Live updates. Global energy concerns [18:49] mount as Iran effectively stops cargo [18:52] traffic in the straight of Hormuz. This [18:54] is their entire strategy. Okay, this is [18:58] their entire entire strategy. Here it [19:01] is. And here we have uh from on the [19:04] Guardian. This is also from today. US [19:06] attacks Iran's mine laying boats in [19:08] straighter form moves as tensions rise [19:10] over oil. So in the early days of the [19:11] war, we were talking about ballistic [19:12] missiles and nuclear and then and then [19:14] we're talking about like you know you [19:15] know the Kurds and the and the IRGC and [19:17] the besiege. this war kinetically is [19:21] shifting to the straits of war moose to [19:24] the whole energy issue. I mean, let me [19:27] let me just pull back the camera a bit [19:29] and and um and sum this whole thing up. [19:32] Okay, what what what's [19:36] Okay, so we just saw that over the past [19:38] few days, Iran's regime media has been [19:42] has been talking about the Straits of [19:44] Hormuz. Now, the truth of what they're [19:47] claiming, the truth of each thing [19:48] they're claiming is not even relevant. [19:50] We're talking about regime media. It's [19:52] just messaging. And as I stressed, it [19:54] tells you what they want the world to [19:57] believe. And most importantly, it [19:58] signals what they hope will happen, [20:00] where they're going. [20:02] So, after reading these pieces together, [20:04] let's talk about the strategy that [20:06] emerges. First of all, the obsession [20:08] with the straight of Hormuz, right? One [20:09] article talked about Iran strategy in in [20:12] what they call the Ramadan war. It [20:14] emphasized control of the straits and [20:16] its global consequences. Another [20:17] headline declared that no oil will pass [20:19] through for the United States or Israel. [20:22] Another one discussed the arrival of the [20:23] American aircraft Gerald Ford and warned [20:25] that Iranian forces are waiting for it. [20:27] The point isn't whether these claims are [20:29] true. The point is that this is the [20:31] message the regime wants circulating [20:33] globally. And that message is a simple [20:35] one. They're telling the world if we go [20:38] down the global energy system goes down [20:40] with us. Okay, so let's get this right. [20:43] They're not claiming that they will [20:45] defeat the US militarily. [20:48] Okay? They're not even pretending they [20:50] can defeat the US militarily. They even [20:51] said that in that strategy piece that [20:53] the first one we read where they said, [20:54] you know, war is not really about how [20:57] many things you destroy. It's about [20:59] managing escalation, right? Instead, [21:01] they're what they're doing is [21:04] they're they're what they're advertising [21:06] is the ability to create global economic [21:08] chaos. Okay? So this the straits of [21:11] Hormuz is the single most important oil [21:13] checkpoint on choke point sorry on [21:16] earth. It's a ma you know a massive [21:19] portion of the world's oil supply moves [21:21] through that corridor between Iran and [21:24] the Arabian Peninsula. So when regime [21:26] media repeatedly talks about closing the [21:28] straight threatening tankers confronting [21:31] the US Navy there. They're sending a [21:34] message mainly mainly to every [21:37] government and market on the planet. [21:39] Right? Not to you, the reader. The [21:41] message is this. If this war continues, [21:43] energy prices will explode. Simple. [21:46] That's the real audience of this [21:48] propaganda, not the Iranian people, not [21:50] even really the United States or Israel. [21:52] It's the global political echelon, [21:55] right? To put pressure on the US, on the [21:57] American president. Because the Iranian [21:59] regime, [22:01] the Iranian regime understands that [22:03] President Trump does not want a long [22:06] war. Okay? He's willing to strike hard. [22:08] He's willing to Iran's military [22:10] capabilities, but his political brand, [22:12] his his his political identity [22:16] is built, one of the pillars of it is [22:19] avoiding endless wars. And the Iranian [22:20] regime is well aware of this. And that's [22:22] why the messaging coming out of their [22:24] media is all about economic disruption. [22:27] They want oil markets panicking. They [22:29] want headlines about tankers avoiding [22:31] the Gulf. They want European and Asian [22:34] governments calling Washington and [22:36] asking, you know, begging for [22:37] deescalation. They want global markets [22:40] screaming because the regime's strategy [22:42] is not to defeat Trump. Okay? It's to [22:45] outlast him politically in this [22:48] conflict. That's exactly the argument I [22:51] made a week before the war began in a [22:53] column in the Jerusalem Post. I wrote [22:55] then that the Islamic Republic's [22:57] strategy is not to win a war with the [23:00] United States. that its strategy is to [23:03] survive Donald Trump. That is the key. [23:06] So from Theron's perspective, [23:10] survival itself is the victory. And if [23:12] they're still standing when the war [23:13] ends, no matter how damaged, they will [23:16] claim success. And they'll be right. And [23:18] the way they hope to achieve that [23:20] success is by widening the consequences [23:22] of the war. [23:24] Managing escalation as they themselves [23:26] said in those articles we read by [23:29] turning up the volume on the escalation [23:30] or down as at meaning managing [23:32] escalation. It's fascinating. That's [23:35] what they want to do. They're not in [23:38] they don't care if they win a particular [23:39] battle. They want to raise the global [23:41] cost of continuing the war. And that's [23:44] why their their propaganda, their [23:46] messaging is so focused heavily on [23:48] energy because if oil prices spike, [23:51] political pressure grows, shipping [23:53] becomes dangerous. Uh right, if global [23:57] energy supplies are threatened, markets [23:59] panic, governments, you know, are are [24:01] panicking and calling for restraint. And [24:03] that's where the pressure shifts from [24:06] Thran to Washington. That's the bet that [24:08] they're making. They're betting that [24:10] global economic pain and political pain [24:13] will force a pause in hostilities before [24:16] the regime collapses. Right? So they're [24:18] the strategy is basically a kind of [24:20] strategic blackmail. It's very smart. [24:22] And the fact that that their regime [24:24] media is broadcasting this message so [24:27] loudly so repeated repetitively. That's [24:29] why I showed you so many pieces. This is [24:30] over everything I showed you from their [24:32] media was over the course of two days. [24:35] all these stories and the other stories [24:37] on their site about about the war are [24:39] are are barely about the war. They're [24:41] they're about things like the funeral [24:42] for Kamayi and the appointment of [24:43] Mushtaba and other things, [24:46] right? About how much the Iranian people [24:48] have rallied behind the regime, which is [24:50] nonsense. [24:53] See, the Iranians know they cannot win a [24:55] war on the battlefield, so they plan to [24:57] win it in the oil market. Right now, [24:59] whether this strategy is going to work [25:01] is another question. But if you want to [25:02] understand what Tehran is trying to do [25:04] right now, you have to listen to what [25:07] they are saying because they're telling [25:09] you exactly how they plan to survive. [25:12] All right, thanks for watching this [25:13] video. I hope it made sense. I hope it [25:14] was helpful to you. And if you found it [25:17] helpful to you, if you if you like what [25:19] we're doing here on this channel, please [25:20] please please continue to share the [25:23] videos. Please drop a comment in there. [25:25] I believe that that this is valuable [25:28] information. If we really want to see [25:29] through the fog and understand what's [25:31] actually happening, this is what we have [25:32] to keep our eye on. This is where the [25:34] war is going. All right, God bless. [25:36] Thanks for watching.
