basis, yes, it was bipartisan, passed very tough sanctions resolutions as part of the defense authorization bill which was signed into law. so all of this means that the noose is tightening around the iranian government, the goal of that is not to hurt the iranian people who are our friends, but it's to get that government to benefit its -- to ban its policy or its potential policy to develop nuclear weapons and i think the sanctions are biting and the reactions from iran shows that they are, and that says to me two things: number one, keep it going. and number two, keep the military option on the table. jenna: you say that the iranian people are our friends, and i'm curious what you think the nature of our relationship should be with iran as we look into the future, not just looking over the next year, but let's say we look ten years out, let's say the sanctions do work, they've stopped pursuing nuclear weapons. what type of relationship do we really want with iran? >> well, iran was one of the great ancient societies.
