Given how the Iranians have been behaving, do you have any regrets about lifting the naval blockade or giving the sanctions waivers? No, No, I gave them a chance. I wanted to give them a chance at making a deal. You know, we had a deal two days ago, it was done, and then all of a sudden they couldn't do it. They didn't like something about the deal. They couldn't do it. And they shot first. And that was a big mistake that they shot first because we have been knocking the hell out of them. (14:55–15:00)
