From Donald Trump of that five-day pause on the strikes on the energy infrastructure, uh, on in Iran.

關於 Donald Trump 要求暫停對伊朗能源基礎設施攻擊五天。

More reports coming in of Iran launching fresh strikes on U.S. bases, this time in Kuwait.

有更多報導指出，伊朗對美國基地發動新一波攻擊，這次是在科威特。

So Iran not letting up when it comes to the counteroffensive against the United States and Israel.

所以，伊朗在反攻美國和以色列這方面並沒有鬆手。

Prabhu, they are so by words and by actions, Iran is making it extremely clear it will not back down.

Prabhu，他們用言語和行動，都讓伊朗非常清楚，他們不會退縮。

Iran has made it very clear that it is not going to back down.

伊朗已經非常清楚地表明，他們不會退縮。

And Iran, I think, had prepared very well for this sort of a situation.

我認為伊朗為這種情況做了非常充分的準備。

It is reported in the media that Iran has about 3,000 missiles which are capable of striking at very long distances.

媒體報導指出，伊朗大約有 3,000 枚飛彈，能夠進行非常遠距離的攻擊。

It has a very, very large number of drones.

他們有數量非常非常龐大的無人機。

And by all accounts, it has only exhausted a small percentage of these.

而且從所有跡象來看，他們只消耗了其中一小部分的數量。

So its capacity to continue fighting is beyond doubt.

所以他們持續作戰的能力毋庸置疑。

Then Iran has shown a very, very deliberate strategy, firstly of escalating the conflict horizontally by striking at various other countries, including those in the Gulf, and

接著，伊朗展現了一個非常、非常深思熟慮的策略，首先是透過攻擊其他國家，包括海灣國家，來橫向擴大衝突，

also vertically by striking at, uh, desalination plants and oil refineries and gas plants.

還有縱向擴大衝突，攻擊、呃，脫鹽廠、煉油廠和燃氣廠。

So it has been able to show that it can strike big blows and cause a lot of hurt.

所以他們能夠展現出他們可以造成重創並帶來很大的傷害。

And that is something that, uh, could have been a factor in influencing Donald Trump's thinking.

而這件事，呃，可能影響了 Donald Trump 的想法。

Now, I agree with, uh, Ambassador Sajjadhar that, uh, it is the IRGC which now is the bulwark of Iran's resistance.

現在，我同意、呃，Sajjadhar 大使的說法，呃，現在是伊斯蘭革命衛隊是伊朗抵抗的堡壘。

And what has happened is that the IRGC, which is very well spread all across the 31 provinces of Iran, has been able to set up a decentralized power structure.

而發生的事情是，伊斯蘭革命衛隊，他們廣泛地分佈在伊朗的 31 個省份，已經能夠建立一個分散式權力結構。

And that is why even if you eliminate the head of the IRGC, the power structure still stands quite direct because it is decentralized.

這就是為什麼即使你消滅了伊斯蘭革命衛隊的領導人，權力結構仍然相當直接地存在，因為它是分散的。

It is able to fight back any sort of, uh, perception of an attack or a threat.

他們能夠反擊任何形式的、呃，被攻擊或威脅的感覺。

Now, let me also just mention that one doesn't know what is going to happen in the next five days.

現在，讓我也順帶一提，我們不知道接下來五天會發生什麼事。

Whether President Trump will really hold on to his word and whether he will try and talk to the Iranians.

川普總統會不會真的說到做到，會不會試著跟伊朗人談談。

One doesn't know how the Iranians will react.

我們不知道伊朗人會有什麼反應。

But one hopes that there will be a solution because this crisis is hurting everybody.

但我們希望會有個解決方案，因為這場危機正在傷害所有人。

We have a lot of imports from, from this particular region.

我們從這個特定區域進口很多東西。

所以我們希望這場戰爭能結束。

But it all depends on the main actors and certainly a very great extent on President Donald Trump.

但這一切都取決於主要參與者，當然很大程度上也取決於川普總統。

The world is turning on Truth Social posts pretty much, uh, coming in from Donald Trump.

全世界都在關注 Donald Trump 的 Truth Social 貼文，幾乎都是他發出來的。

And, uh, Ray Locker, I want to get your perspective on this.

You can see the strikes coming in on the American bases across the Gulf nations.

你可以看到飛彈打到波斯灣國家裡的美國基地。

America was once upon a time the security guarantor of all these Arab nations.

美國曾經是所有這些阿拉伯國家安全的保證者。

Yet despite all the firepower, all the technology, these cheap drones coming in from Iran are able to cause that much damage on these American bases, uh, across the Gulf.

然而，儘管火力強大、科技先進，來自伊朗的這些廉價無人機卻能在美國基地造成如此大的損害，橫跨整個波斯灣。

The entire moniker of American power in the Gulf has pretty much been shattered by the Iranian regime.

美國在波斯灣的權力象徵，幾乎被伊朗政權粉碎了。

And I mean, I say that as somebody who is a proud American, you know.

我這麼說，是因為我是一個引以為傲的美國人。

I mean, uh, I value the reputation this country has had for decades as a force for good around the world.

我重視這個國家幾十年來作為世界一股良善力量的聲譽。

We're losing that because of the actions of a madman.

我們正在失去它，因為一個瘋子的行為。

And I think the rest of the world knows that, except for a small percentage of Americans who think this guy is some kind of genius playing multi-general, uh, dimensional chess.

我想全世界都知道這一點，除了少數美國人，他們認為這個傢伙是個玩弄多代、呃，多維象棋的天才。

I mean, that's clear from watching him, from listening to him.

我的意思是，看看他、聽聽他，就很清楚了。

I mean, these countries around the world who valued us are looking and saying, "We can't trust the United States." Just recently, in the last few days, we had former Defense Secretary James Mattis, a Marine General, Trump's first Defense Secretary, says the rest of the world now looks at us as predatory, that we can't be trusted.

我的意思是，世界上那些重視我們的國家都在看，並且說：「我們不能信任美國。」就在最近幾天，我們有前國防部長 James Mattis，一位海軍陸戰隊將軍，川普的第一任國防部長，他說全世界現在看我們就像掠奪者，我們不能被信任。

A waste of, uh, a reputation that's been built up over the last 80 years.

浪費了，呃，過去 80 年建立起來的聲譽。

Um, and, you know, I don't know where we go from here.

嗯，你知道，我不知道接下來該怎麼辦。

Personally, we can't get rid of this guy fast enough.

個人來說，我們不能快點擺脫這個傢伙。

I mean, I can't wait till 2029 when he's no longer president and we can move on to somebody else who values America's role in the world.

我真的等不及 2029 年他不再當總統，我們就能換個重視美國世界角色的其他人了。

And, uh, can you tell me about the Republican pulse?

嗯，你能告訴我共和黨的脈動嗎？

What are the Republican lawmakers in Congress, uh, talk, uh, you know, deciding about this war?

國會裡的共和黨議員們，嗯，你知道，他們在討論這個戰爭的什麼？

Are they looking at the political costs, uh, when it comes to the midterm elections?

他們在看政治成本嗎？嗯，就中期選舉而言。

Any pressure coming in, uh, from Republican lawmakers on Donald Trump to firmly end this entire conflict given the direct impact on the American economy?

有沒有來自共和黨議員對 Donald Trump 的壓力，要他堅決結束這場衝突，因為這直接影響美國經濟？

I mean, people like Congressman Don Bacon of Nebraska, uh, Republican, military guy who's not running for reelection, those are the people who speak out, the people who aren't up for reelection or retiring.

我的意思是，像內布拉斯加州國會議員 Don Bacon 這樣的人，嗯，共和黨人，一個軍人，他不再競選連任，這些人會發聲，那些不再競選連任或退休的人。

And they're saying, "Look, this doesn't make sense." Um, you had Trump's counterterrorism guy, Joe Kent, quit a couple of days ago saying this doesn't make sense.

他們說：「看，這沒有道理。」嗯，你讓川普的反恐官員 Joe Kent 幾天前辭職說這沒有道理。

And I personally think Joe Kent's kind of a nut job, um, and

而我個人認為 Joe Kent 有點神經病，嗯，

kind of flirts with, you know, neo-Nazi types.

But he kind of crystallized what a lot of people are saying.

但他確實點出了很多人想說的話。

If you talk to rank-and-file Republicans privately, they say this guy doesn't know what he's doing.

如果你私下跟一般共和黨黨員聊，他們會說這個人根本不知道自己在幹嘛。

But you put a TV camera on him, then they're like, they think he's a genius.

但只要鏡頭一對著他，他們就好像覺得他是個天才。

And, you know, and most journalists know better.

而且，你知道的，大部分記者都心知肚明。

They've talked to these people in private and they know they don't have a lot of confidence in Trump.

他們私下跟這些人聊過，也知道他們對川普沒什麼信心。

But enough part of the Republican electorate loves Trump.

但共和黨選民裡，還是有很多人愛著川普。

And so they're not going to get crossways with him.

So there won't be any significant challenge coming in from the Republican side to Donald Trump's war, no matter what damage it caused, uh, to America's image abroad or even at home, the damage that will do to the American economy.

所以川普的戰爭，無論對美國的國際形象或國內經濟造成多大的損害，都不太可能會有來自共和黨方面的重大挑戰。

So that's pretty much the kind of advantage Donald Trump has in waging this kind of a conflict on the Middle East, uh, pretty much.

所以這大概就是 Donald Trump 在中東發動這類衝突的優勢，大概就是這樣。

While everyone says he's Taco Trump, he's chickening out at the last moment.

雖然大家說他是「Taco Trump」，說他在最後關頭退縮了。

Uh, he's not suffering anything, uh, politically back home.

他其實在國內政治上並沒有受到什麼影響。

He's still, as many Republicans say, Teflon Don when it comes to this.

正如許多共和黨人所說，他在這方面就像「Teflon Don」一樣，什麼都沾不上身。

But hopefully the midterms should give him a kind of a wake-up call.

但希望這次期中選舉能給他一個警惕。

But we'll have to wait and see how that plays out.

不過我們還是得等著看結果如何。
