Iran has figured out that we can't beat them. We're not weakening Iran. We have
00:00:05
strengthened Iran and we can't stop their drone attacks. And what you're
00:00:11
seeing is far more chaotic decision-making is happening in the White House than it's happening in the
00:00:16
government of Iran and it's evidence Trump is losing power. So when I look through the response to the last
00:00:22

00:00:29
think happens next for them and what is Israel's role in this? >> Well, Israel is playing two roles here
00:00:34
that have not helped us correctly assess the situation and we'll talk about that.
00:00:39
>> And then what do you think happens with Europe? >> NATO is for all practical purposes dead
00:00:45
and what happens next. >> So for 21 years, I laid out what a hypothetical bombing campaign of Iran
00:00:51
would look like. And when I was here last time, every single thing we talked about unfolded in the first several
00:00:57
weeks of the war. >> So when you did this 21 years of modeling these attacks, how did America
00:01:03
come out of this situation? >> So there was a consistent set of findings and America can bomb them,
00:01:09
attack them. We could even threaten to murder all 92 million of them. But the bottom line is
