“We killed the Supreme Leader, who had the prohibition on developing a nuclear weapon, who was able to withhold the proxies, killed him, killed (head of Iran’s National Security Council Ali) Larijani, killed a bunch of the other Iranian moderates, and now we’re stuck with these hardliners,” Kent said. “That was the Israeli strategy. It was very effective, and now we’re back in this situation. So, that’s why I’ve always said, in order for us to get ourselves out of the situation and get a deal with Iran, the first step has to be restraining the Israelis.”
“No, maybe that wasn’t it. Words precede and surpass me, they tempt and alter me, and if I am not careful it will be too late: things will be said without my having said them. Or, at the very least, that wasn’t the only thing. My entanglement comes from how a carpet is made of so many threads that I can’t resign myself to following just one; my ensnarement comes from how one story is made of many stories. And I can’t even tell them all— a more truthful word could from echo to echo cause my highest glaciers to crumble down the precipice.” - Clarice Lispector
