n that'd be hard to go against. Scott, Mearsheimer to understand your history please. This has been tried. That's a terrible comment. Terrible comment. Yeah the history does not tell you what's going to happen in the future. History does not repeat itself. That is a myth. And as soon as you believe that you can't do anything that eliminates your ability to think. Oh history repeats itself so ther…

ust stop that and I think they would have stopped. So these are the weakest list of international and then it forgets that he's involved in several wars. Wow anyway.

I've got a solution for the Red Sea. It's kind of obvious. So you know the Houthis around there are shooting missiles and stuff and we think Iran is behind all of it of course. And Iran has some ship called the Behshad that's in that area that we think is part of their spy bad operation and that is giving some kind of intelligence to the Houthis to know what to shoot maybe or doing some other bad things. Some have called it a floating armory. So it's basically a military serious military ship in the Red Sea. But Iran has said that the purpose of that ship here's good news is to it's an anti-piracy ship. So the point of the ship is to stop all that piracy meaning the Houthis. So it's an anti-piracy thing. So good news right? Iran's on our side. Yeah here we thought they had been funding the Houthis and they were all happy about the missiles coming and bothering us but no it turns out Iran says that they don't like the piracy either so they got their own ship there to deal with it.

Do you see the solution yet or do I have to connect the dots? Let me tell you a little story that might allow you to connect the dots. Do you remember once there was a Russian pipeline to Europe sort of a gas pipeline and then sadly it blew up. It blew up. Well sad. And then we blamed I believe we blamed Putin for blowing up his own pipeline. Well later we found out that might not have been exactly true but it makes me wonder assuming that we take Iran at its word and why wouldn't they they've never lied to us before and they say that it's an anti-piracy thing you know who would not like that? You know who would really not like an anti-piracy ship right in that Red Sea area? The Houthis. And imagine if the Houthis decided to fire a missile and destroy that ship. I mean imagine because that's exactly what the Houthis do. Yeah that they'd want to get back at anybody who's trying to stop their piracy and their bad intentions there. So I think you know just in the same way that Putin destroyed his own pipeline we might find the Houthis attacking those Iranian ships and that would be terrible. I mean that would be a tragedy. So you maybe the Houthis can take out those Iranian ships and maybe that will solve the problem. We've done it before. No I don't think that's a good idea but it's funny because we've done it before. It would be totally in character for us to sink their ship and say I don't know it's the Houthis. We're doing what we can but we can't stop every missile. And if you believe if you think that's going to happen watch for the cat on the roof. Look for a story that would be a fake story that says it looks like those Houthis fired a missile at the Iranian ship but luckily an American ship intercepted the missile and shot it down because we don't want war you know. Yeah yeah we don't want war. So we're going to protect that Iranian ship from those damn Houthi missiles. That's the way I'd play it. So if you see that it sounds like we're going to protect the Iranian ship from a Houthi missile we're going to sink that ship. That would be the hint that is coming.

All right ladies and gentlemen ag
