With its debut album Music from Big Pink And that was the day Officially surfed music died Well it's James and Van Coover And the show is called to be alive in 1965 And I got to tell you here I want you to call this number 8000-724-2719-800-724-2719 And donate the RBN please Well today is Friday Support the September And I have a very important announcement to make That here it goes

Exclamation work on Trump's Triumphal Arch We'll begin in the next two weeks That is The Cesar is going to build a triumphant arch I guess it will be in Washington Exclamation work on President Donald Trump's triumphant arch The schedule to begin over the next two weeks Interior Secretary Doug Burgham He used to be from North Dakota As said on September 3 This will be one of the great pieces of American archit Architecture honoring the history and significance of Arlington Cemetery and befitting the most powerful capital in the world Burgham said in a post on ex Burgham also included pictures of what the arch would be

Would look like The proposed monument would include a mesamine level at 166 feet and a 24-foot high observatory deck observation deck And a 60-foot statue of Lady Liberty at the top I don't know what the hell that's going to look like Like a monstrosity The structure, oh yeah I see it now It looks like Looks like It's got that cheer of bim and syrup and thing there too I see where this is The structure which is intended to mark America's 250th anniversary Would prominently display the inscriptions One nation under God And Liberty and justice for all

It was inspired by the 164-foot high arch Do triumph in Paris Well we should make ours 164 feet too How make it 300 feet? What the heck? Do it like Albert Spear A group of veterans and historians represented by public interest law firm Public citizen litigation group have filed a federal lawsuit seeking To block construction arguing that the arch would interfere with the historic Sightline between the Lincoln Memorial and Arlington House among Other concerns The justice department has responded that Congress approved A large structures at the plan side decades ago and gave authority to the

National Park Service to change their design Okay, the National Park Service released a report on the arch on August 28th That supported the project But warned there would be adverse effects on the Sightlines between a host of iconic landmarks such as the Washington Monument And Lincoln and Jefferson Memorials I don't think they'll be They won't be laying this shrine the triumphant arch using Made it mazonic ritual I'm pretty much sure of that The arch announced last October is proposed to be built On a man made island overseen by the National Park Service located on the Virginia side of the Potomac River near Memorial Bridge which connects to the

Lincoln Memorial at 250 feet or maybe it's 250 feet The structure would be significantly taller than the Lincoln Memorial which is 99 feet tall and roughly half the height of the Washington Monument It is one of the numerous projects Trump has undertaken as part of his State of Gold a beautifying Be Nations capital The president also seeks to renovate East Potomac golf links Build an arch near the Lincoln Memorial and construct a ballroom on White House Grounds You renovated the Lincoln Memorial reflecting pool which will need to be refilled After deficiencies were found the president the president blamed Deventilism as well as contractor error

I don't think they used the right you write coding for that pool It's got to be mine laying capabilities Iran launched retaliatory drone and missile attacks Towards US and allied regional assets including interceptions over Kuwait The U.S. staff incident Iranian state media reported that a U.S. strike It a residential area hosting a wedding party This has been reported before but not quite like this Hosting a wedding party in Ku's stack Feeling several civilians a U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance said the U.S. is investigating an incident Tuesday

Just friendly fire folks That's just the missile Iranian missiles did a 180 and came back and hit their own people The straight-ahorn mood shipping commercial vessel traffic through the vital waterway remains well below free war norms As Iran attempts to enforce its own vetting and restriction regime While U.S. forces escort select tanker traffic along alternative southern routes I'm like I used to say the Maxwell smart on get smart I find that hard to believe Would you believe we were guiding a robot? Economic pressures a global oil price was have a spike due to the renewed instability While the European Union recently joined the U.S. financial pressure campaign

Targeting Iranian oil revenues And some of these talk show hosts on alternative media seemed to think that Isn't that economic guy has a chance of breaking up the China Iran trade over oil And of course I said before that ain't gonna that ain't gonna happen probably because Iran is giving China right now a price of $5 a barrel Most favored nation status is now what they say the most favored nation trading status here Like my buddy Saddam Hussein was doing to the Europeans in 2003 Yeah, it is oil at $5 a barrel my oil was at $27 a barrel out of a ramco and of course that's a hell of a price difference

So Iran and the USA are they shooting at each other right now and the answer to that question is yes The US and Iran are actively trading military strikes following a month-long period of relative calm The conflict flared up sharply this week as both nations exchanged intense missile and drone attacks The nature of the current lashes US operations the US military recently struck targets across southern Iran Eating Iranian air defenses radar networks maritime assets, communication sites, and mind-laying positions near the straight-arm moves The Trump administration framed these strikes as necessary to open shipping lanes and stop Iranian forces from planting sea mines

Yeah, I don't think the United States can actually get into the straight-arm moves but according to this reporter here on a little computer buddy They think that the United States can go up and down that straight like nobody's business Iran's retaliation Iran retaliated by unleashing Iran retaliated by unleashing a wave of ballistic missiles and attack drones because the US is maintaining a tight naval blockade on Iranian ports Iran chose to target several military installations hosting US personnel across the Middle East including bases in Jordan, Kuwait, Bahrain, and the UAE The same old guys said maybe they didn't hit Saudi Arabia this time but they will don't worry

The domestic view that despite the heavy back and forth both sides appear cautious about stumbling back into a total war Vice President J.D. Vance said Thursday during a White House news briefing right now there is no act of shooting I recognize there have been places where this has flared up seeking to downplay the ongoing violence as the upcoming US midterm elections approach President Donald Trump also brushed off the scale of the fight on Friday calling the conflict small potatoes for us Except that I hear there was quite a bit of damage to the whole situation Now I got this question here what is Turkey doing in this conflict?

I was going to talk about Turkey last time. Turkey is maintaining a strict policy of neutrality in the US The American conflict has a NATO member that directly borders Iran Turkey is balancing its alliance commitments with regional economic and security interests by acting as a mediator alternative trade hub and diplomatic back channel Turkey's key actions and positions in the conflict include a diplomatic mediation and ceasefire as well Of course we have discussed the idea of mediation and ceasefires And like I said yesterday and days before when there is this amount of instability in the region, mediation and words are no good But people got to do something I guess Turkey has repeatedly refused to join the US led military coalition or the naval blockade

Instead Turkey's national intelligence organization has been actively working behind the scenes as a vital communication bridge between Washington, the Iranian government and the Islamic Revolutionary Guard The Corps, I was going to read that corporation, also known as the IRGC to help negotiate pods as they were fighting at relay de-escalation messages Proposing alternative overland trade routes, the severe disruption of shipping in the strait of war moves is projected to cause Turkey up to 14 billion in inflated energy import bills by the end of the year

In response and Kara has been pitching alternative overland gulf to Europe trade corridors running through Iraq and Syria to bypass the maritime choke points Facing US sanctions over shadow banking despite Turkey's efforts to keep out of the line of fire The conflict has caused direct economic friction with Washington under a US financial pressure campaign called Operation Economic Outcast, well that's essence deal The US Treasury has just placed sanctions on Turkey's gold and global bank The US alleges the Istanbul-based bank acted as a critical financial lifeline by funneling Iranian oil revenues from China into Turkey to convert into gold cash and gold

What was in a couple months ago? Turkey did a favor for Donald Trump at that session there and what happened in the United States, double crossed their Turkish ally here, Wakter Bank Defense cooperation and regional hedging, well the United States is desperate, okay? So it's not surprising. Defense cooperation and regional hedging was amidst destabilized. Turkey has formed a temporary defense pact and hosted meetings with Saudi Arabia and Pakistan to address wider regional stability and the threat of crossfire. At the same time Turkey hosts NATO radar and air assets that have intercepted stray Iranian missiles tracking toward Europe's southern flank.

Well, so Turkey has taken it from both sides here. Well, why not? You know, that's the way it goes. I met, we had Turkish students in my master's class and they didn't like me too much and that's okay too. If you, yeah, so let's carry on here. Well, is Iran shooting in Israel right now? This is a question that I wanted to clear up and it says no, Iran is currently not shooting at Israel directly. Well, there have been brief and intense direct exchanges earlier in the war. Iran is intentionally refraining from attacking Israel during this current flare up. Instead, Iran is focusing its latest retaliatory missile and drone strikes entirely on US military installations and regional US allies.

The strategy behind the restraint avoiding a two-front escalation military analysts indicate that Iran is purposefully avoiding direct engagement with Israel to prevent bringing the Israeli military. The Israeli military fully into the act of combat zone. Striking Israel with trigger massive combined forest counter attacks that could threaten Iran's critical infrastructure and domestic instability. Israel's red line is really defense minister Israel gets issued a harsh of the warning stating that Israel would target all kinds of Iranian infrastructure. I mentioned this yesterday, including energy infrastructure sites if Iran attacked Israel. Knowing that it's domestic economy is already under severe strain. Iran appears to recognize that an Israeli counter strike would be devastating, but I think it's more the other way around and I think that the Iranian government does not want to attack Israel.

Because there's an election coming and attacking Israel would be the lid of eyeing support for Benjamin Netanyahu in his bid to get elected again. So I think the Iranians really are. They can attack anytime they want so really doesn't matter but attack after the election. So. And then of course my little computer buddy. Am right back and said yes the timing of the conflict is heavily intertwined with the upcoming Israeli legislative election scheduled for October 27th at 2026. For Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu who was currently traveling, sorry, not traveling, trailing in the polls. I almost read that saying he was going to go to Paris, but no.

Trailing in the polls, the regional tensions serve a critical domestic purpose. Security focused actions allow him to shift the political debate away from long standing criticisms regarding his failure to prevent the October 7th, 2023 attacks. The current US Iran standoff connects to Israel's domestic selection cycle through several key political dynamics. Number one, Netanyahu's political survival strategy. Political analysts and media outlets note that Netanyahu is aggressively projecting a wartime posture to appeal to nationalist voters. By actively overseeing military operations, including recent operations against his bura in Lebanon, Hamas in Gaza and airstrikes against an air base in Syria.

He is deliberately keeping security at the absolute center of the political conversation commentators from the New York Times report that Netanyahu. As domestic incentives look for a fight in every direction to boost his standing. Well, how long is that good for? You run out of gas. A deterrence rhetoric as a campaign tool. I'm going to go back to my buddy Tom Shelling, even though Israel is not actively taking part in the immediate back and forth maritime strikes between the US and Iran. Israeli leadership is capitalizing on the flare up to look strong on Thursday. Israeli defense minister Israel Kets explained explicitly threatened that an Iranian attack with free Israel to target Iran's infrastructure.

Well, it could be that they're running out of these patriots missiles out here. Those 1650 cannonballs that they're trying to use to knock down a high tech high tech high presiding missiles.

I love her, she loves me, but I don't get the personality.

Lord, I press the other boys and down in the blue dots. Every night I watch the light from the house upon the hill. I love a little girl that lives up there, and I guess I always will. But I don't feel knocked for her, though, because I daddy is my old man. So I'll just ask you to be content to see whatever I can. Down in the blue dots. Down in the blue dots. So it's actually just for gentlemen, we're back. And I'm down in the morning. Not down. I love her, she loves me. I love daddy, but I love her. Really Joe Royale. Really Joe Royale. Really Joe Royale from 1965. Down in the blue dots.

Can you tell me, Joe Royale was the southern boy? One time they all climbed away to move from the old shack. I hold my head like a pig. I tell them to move back. I feel that's one and I'll work in sleep. There you are, but... Yeah. ...but tonight you have to see the way. Down in the blue dots. Down in the blue dots. People come down from back. It's not a town I would go with. Here we go, right? We do a new show or we like it. Right, I mean the... The... The... Here comes the lead break of the guitar. Down in the blue dots.

Here that last part. Here that guitar. That's a perfect... A perfect... And a... A band that you use for doing a studio band. A session musician band where they only got to play it once. And it comes out perfect. Well, if it's not the first time, definitely it'll be the second time. Now that's exactly what happened there. Now, I'd netanyahu's political survival strategy. Political analysts and media outlets note that netanyahu is aggressively rejecting a wartime posture to appeal to nationalist voters by actively overseeing military operations, including recent operations against his bula.

All right, Lebanon, Amaz and Gaza. So we did all this commentators from the New York Times report that netanyahu has domestic incentives to look for a fight. Yes, in every direction we do that. The deterrence rhetoric, this is what I wanted to get to. Of course, this cat is threatening an Iranian attack with free Israel. And I said yes, but it's more about the election. The opposing slates and alternative strategies. The election is effectively a referendum on netanyahu's leadership. The rival political coalitions are weaponizing national security to differentiate themselves. And really, I don't think any of these political parties make any difference because they're still under the same problem.

They're still going to have a war after this election. But you got the Lecude block, which is netanyahu emphasizes total military victory. Continuing aggressive multi-front actions and has seen far right coalition partners renew highly controversial proposals regarding Gaza to rally their base. But I think that this policy is increasingly unpopular with the people of the United States of the Republic. So you got a problem there. Now the third block opposition and against and now tell you Bennett, a leader of the Aachen, the together party, are campaigning on a platform of a broad national unity government. What's different than the Lecude? They advocate for a strategy that stops Iranian nuclear ambitions, but focuses heavily on domestic reforms.

That's the same thing, including ending military draft exemptions to distribute the security burden equally. Yeah, it's the same thing as what the other guys want really. These parties will take whatever they can get. Trust me. They're desperate. They're desperate, of course, because China is waiting in the lurch to take over the whole damn region. So they got a fight. A swim, the sun, Seu calls it death ground all of those Gulf states, including Israel or what I would call on death ground right now. Because they're all going to get covered overlap with the US midterms elections. Okay. The geopolitical calendar is packed as the US midterm elections are happening right after Israel's on November 3rd. Now everybody's got to, what is it to make it too big to rig?

Right? So we want to get all you people out to the polls. I mean, we want to see block long lines so that the whole election will be too big to rig and just make sure that you press the right buttons on the computer. That will help you out. Both the Trump, yeah, well, okay. A Trump administration and the Netanyahu government are carefully navigating the escalation, knowing that sudden oil, a price spikes or severe military losses, it's severely harm the political prospects of both conservative leaderships at the ballot box as well. I did a little bit of research today on the 9-1-1 area of New York, sometimes called the Tribeca area. I used to, 26 years ago, well, actually in 2001 and 1999. Well, basically, 2001 I was hanging out in the Tribeca area just before the big buildings came down.

Although I wasn't there for the big buildings coming down. I had eyewitness buddies that, well, they watched it on TV too, but then I got a thing here on the hottest night spots in New York City. But I don't think you want to hear that. So let's go back to our international news here. So the question is, is China advising Iran on its strategy? Well, of course, I don't believe what came back here, but let's read what they say. No, China is not directing or advising Iran's military strategy. In fact, Beijing is growing increasingly frustrated with Teyran's escalations. While China has provided the secondary intelligence and economic lifelines to Iran, a Beijing's primary goal is stability and the reopening of global shipping lanes.

China views Iran as an economic asset rather than a military ally, and it is deliberately keeping Teyran at arms length to protect its own global interest. Yes, but China knew better anyway. China knew this was going to happen too. All these guys know this sort of thing. So they can't complain. It is the destiny they've chosen, or the destiny is theirs to choose. The relationship between Beijing and Teyran during this war boils down to three main dynamics. No. 1. Growing frustration and diplomatic distance. China's primary objective in the Middle East is the unrestricted flow of trade through the straight-over moves because Iran's latest wave of strikes directly contradicts this goal. Beijing has actively snubbed Iranian leadership, the coal shoulder.

Again, I think I have to take this with a lot of grain assault here. The coal shoulder at a recent regional summit, Chinese president Xi Jinping, the main-kept Iranian president, Masoud Hezhkian at a noticeable distance. Analysts note that Beijing has been consistent in what he wants from Teyran and into the conflict and the straight-order moves reopened while Iran's leadership has largely moved in the opposite direction. This is Beijing signaling some real dissatisfaction with Teyran. Again, China should know better. China always thinks that when they buy a country that that country should just do bend over and take it or whatever because China sees this as their own property.

This would be the comment I would make having lived in that part of the world for some 30 years. You find that the Chinese are low on maintenance. They want to buy something and forget about it. Not when it comes to day-to-day diplomacy. You have to be on top of it. I would imagine that Washington is much better at that day-to-day diplomacy because they're good at making things up real fast because you know, fast-talking, as you can see Donald Trump, fast-talking is one of his four days. Now, prioritizing Washington, President Xi is scheduled to meet, oh yeah, we're back to this, coming up on the 24th of September. President Xi is scheduled to meet with US President Donald Trump later this month and is actively trying to avoid any public perception that China is backing Iran's military campaign.

But, of course, everybody knows what's going on. But Xi is not really a, like I said, there are too much in this whole idea of their culture. And that's what their weak point is. Is they always run back to that culture of theirs and that just screws them up with regard to communication with their allies and so on and so forth. See, let's continue a concrete support with strict limits, of course. While China refuses to give strategic advice or form a military alliance, it has still quietly supported Iran's capability to withstand US pressure. Satellite surveillance, according to reports from the Financial Times, Tehran acquired a high resolution Chinese satellite that Iranian forces have used to monitor US naval movements and military installations in the region.

Now, I've been telling you that China is playing it cold with Iran right now. And let's go to something here, which I think will interest us, is that well, can we possibly see that China is afraid now of getting too close to Iran? But the question here is, so China is frustrated with Iran's behavior. How does that contrast with Russia? My impression is that in the last while Russia has become more supportive of Iran and is that an accurate observation? And my little computer buddy says your observation is entirely accurate. There is a sharp and fascinating contrast between China's behavior and Russia's behavior in this conflict.

So China is a backpedaling, but now Russia is coming to the fore to more properly or more directly encourage Iran in its fight for survival. So there is a sharp, fascinating contrast between China's behavior and Russia's behavior in this conflict. While China is actively distancing itself from Tehran, to protect its global trade routes, Russia has aggressively stepped up its support for Iran as forming the relationship into a deeply co-dependent military and strategic alliance. When a few months ago, I don't think Russia was getting that close to Iran. The structural reasons for this sharp divergence in the exact way that Russia is backing Iran break down as follows.

Now the question, why are the divergence economic versus geopolitical motivations? China is a global trader trying to realize heavily on global stability and open maritime shipping lanes, open maritime shipping lanes to export its goods and imports energy. When Iran just ups the straight or moves it directly harms China's economic bottom line. Russia is a war economy beneficiary. Russia is under severe Western sanctions due to its war in Ukraine and does not rely on Western shipping lanes. In fact, Russia actively benefits from the conflict. The war induced instability in the Persian Gulf has spike global oil prices, creating a massive fiscal windfall or the Kremlin's energy exports. Furthermore, every U.S. missile and dollar spent fighting Iran is a resource diverted away from Ukraine.

Now how Russia's support has escalated in 2026? Rather than keeping Tehran at arms length, Moscow is acting as a tactical spoiler against the U.S. through major upgrades in cooperation.

Okay. We're back. At least I hope so. So the question here, how Russia's support has escalated in 2026 rather than keeping Tehran at arms length. Moscow is acting as a tactical spoiler against the US through major upgrades and cooperation. Advanced technological transfers as revealed by a financial times investigation this week, Russian missile engineers have been secretly working inside Iran to help the IRGC master ramjet propulsion technology. This cooperation is aimed at developing supersonic cruise missiles specifically designed to slip past Allied air defenses and target US Navy warships in the Gulf. Active targeting intelligence. This is what the Russians are doing.

According to US and European intelligence, Russia has provided Iran with high quality satellite imagery and orbiting surveillance data. So the Russians are doing the same thing the Chinese are doing. This tactical intelligence has actively aided Iran in mapping out and targeting American military installations across the Middle East such as cases in Qatar and Turkey.

Hey, thank you, Jeremy. How are you? Oh, I'm doing great. Just getting in from a long day of work. Yeah. And by the way, everyone needs to donate to the station. Dire Straits right now. And send the fundage. Make your checker money. Order payable to R.B.N.

2251 double creep drive. Suite 302. Round Rock, Texas 7864. Call on your debit or credit to 1-877-242719. And we have an operator standing by. Patrick, what's been going on with you? What sort of things are you interested in? I know through that, uh, that a meeting between Putin and she. Back on August 31st. It happened. Yeah, what was that? Okay, so they met. I didn't realize that they met. Yeah, August 31st. The president of Russia arrived in Bishkek. So if you look at Bishkek on a map, you know, the first time I've seen a lot of, uh, Kyrgyzstan, which is on the border of Western China. To both Afghanistan, right?

Yeah. Because Pakistan. Yeah, the so far satellites. Right. Part of the stand game, you know, I was in. Yeah. That's interesting place to meet too. All of these areas. You know, part of the former Soviet Union. And it's interesting that they met there. And they were not going to be able to get into the meeting yet. But just the things that already start flashing in my mind are, you know, we're going to put the old, we're going to put the band back together, man. We're on a mission from God. We're going to put the old Soviet Union back together. And hey, China, would you like to get involved in this? I did hear a little bit about it. I heard that the different. Um, countries like Kazakhstan. To tell Russia to have a ceasefire. But China did not do that. And basically told. Kazakhstan and other other, like, I think Georgia was another one.

And the caucus mountains. They basically said, don't, don't do it. We're being pressured by the Americans. And he said, well, you know what? You're going to have to choose between Americans and us because we're not going to stop. That's what. And then G, G isn't telling him to have a ceasefire because he knows that he's best not to get involved. And I think that they benefit greatly. Through trade with Russia. They're the bricks nations and the two biggest are Russia and China. So. I. That's my take on it. And this particular meeting now this happens just before this big SCO summit. Shanghai Corporation organization summit is coming up. And apparently the Ukraine wasn't even on the table. That you had all the big dogs. I won't read off all the names.

I mean, Lavrov was there, of course. And, you know, or Ashken, many of the big people in Russia were there. The foundation of bilateral relations will only grow stronger according to Xi. And we will confidently move forward to a better future. And then there's like a dialogue here. I pulled up an actual. An actual a Web site from the Kremlin. I don't know if I'll get targeted for that, but. I'm just trying to get it from the horse's mouth, if you will. And. So they're marking this 25th anniversary of treaty of good neighbors and from the cooperation. And. All of it seems to be sort of like just this friendly thing. This little get together maybe just to show the West. That they're on board with each other like they got each other's backs. And again, it says that interestingly enough that. The Ukraine wasn't really on the table there, but some highlights were.

I'm a trial, I don't mean. Major revelation from talks involves potential diplomatic shifts. Criminal and AIDS reported that Putin and Xi discussed the possibility of hosting a historic trial, I don't mean with Trump. At the upcoming Asia Pacific economic. A collaboration APEC. And that would be in November. So they're going to include Trump in on this. And that's not what they're going to do. I mean, he's. Officially the president of them. One of the most powerful, you know, countries in the world. I would argue that China is probably the most powerful at this point with Russia coming in close second. And the US third. And that's not because I hate the US. It's just I'm calling it as I see it. Strategic alignment. Marking their first face to face to Putin's official state visit to China in May of 26.

The official Russian transcripts are, you know, you can look them up on here. What is the media saying about it? Putin turns again to China. As Russia clout crumbles. So the media is. The Russian clout is crumbling. The Wall Street Journal. Oh, of course. Yeah, I'm just getting like the mainstream media takes on this. That's why I pulled up the actual criminal and. Honestly, I'm just getting rid of that. Maybe it's just just get the headlines on this and see. Yeah. Here we go. Al Jazeera. Putin and she reaffirmed Russia. China ties. I'm at unpredictable circumstances. I'm nuanced. PBS leaders of China, Russia, India among world leaders meeting at summit the counter US influence.

Okay. And we go on. I mean, you know, the mainstream media is going to paint it as it is. But the fact of like that they met in an old Soviet satellite state and. That they're talking about their ties stronger. I mean, this is sending a huge message to the West. And our ran wasn't really part of the key talking points. But I would imagine that that's going to be on the table soon when they talked to Trump. If they thought to Trump in November, if things don't escalate completely out of control. Well, she was to visit Trump. Yeah, really soon. Yeah, she's visiting Trump. I think the end of September 24th or 25th. And then all three leaders are going to do the visit that I was talking about in November. I know that September 1st, Russia rolled out the digital rubble. Did you hear anything about that? No, but that's interesting central bank digital currency.

I mean, the three countries are going to go to that. We can say a Russia's based and. Yeah, they're ahead of us. They're definitely ahead of us, even with like things like the flock cameras. I mean, I remember going there 10 years ago and they had flock cameras. Set up on every street corner practically where they had street lights. Well, in China, forget about it, man. They're. Yeah. Same. That's where we're getting our ideas from. I mean, that's Trump's whole thing, right? We've got to be China to this. We've got to spy on our own public. Art of in China spies on theirs. And I mean, in what's really the difference, you know, CEO's benefit and set up these things. What really isn't benefit, by the way, these things don't make money. Well, it's always a matter of concentrating wealth into the hands of the few. At the expense of the majority. It seems like they want to block people on the bottom. Like you and me from doing business and they want to get their guys set in.
