e absolutely taking you off the drug. Now if two years later it looks like you couldn't handle it we'll talk about putting you back on but we're going to have to take you off it to see if you have any chance at all of maintaining your weight. Shouldn't that be the rule? That you're guaranteed to get off it but we'll watch it and if you can't figure out how to do it on your own we'll have to put yo…
← Previous segment →the extreme thing needed to do to maybe get something stable. This was it. It was an extreme thing. Nobody wanted it to happen but it did. So now they have a chance of building something stable maybe with Saudi or somebody else having some role. We'll see. But I see two wars that are likely to wind down.
