3760	5200	President Trump turning the tables on
5200	6640	Iran, making his own demands for
6640	8320	reparations. The commander-in-chief is
8320	10559	looking to make Thran pay for the
10559	12800	Americans killed or seriously wounded in
12800	15200	Iranian attacks. Chief for correspondent
15200	16880	Trey Yanks is live in Tel Aviv with the
16880	18880	latest. Hey, Trey.
18880	20320	>> Yeah. Hey, Brian. Good morning. Late
20320	22080	Monday, President Trump responded to
22080	24640	Iranian demands for compensation in
24640	28000	order to reopen the Strait of Hormuz.
28000	31760	They asked for uh money for the damage
31760	33040	that we've done. And I said, "That's a
33040	34320	good idea. Well, we're going to ask for
34320	35920	money for the damage they've done over a
35920	38000	50-year period, many thousands of
38000	41600	people, and maybe damages for the 52,000
41600	43440	protesters over the last four months
43440	46000	that were killed in Iran. So, now what
46000	49039	is it?" So, uh, if there's damages to be
49039	50640	paid, I think Iran should pay those
50640	52709	paid, I think Iran should pay those damages.
52709	52719	damages.
52719	54559	President Trump also posted on True
54559	56399	Social in part saying, "But it is an
56399	58160	interesting idea because now I am
58160	59920	likewise demanding compensation from
59920	61680	Iran for all of the people that they
61680	63199	have killed and gravely wounded with
63199	65360	their roadside bombs and many conflicts
65360	67119	for which they are famous, as led
67119	69040	initially by General Solommani,
69040	70479	including the families of those killed
70479	72799	on the USS Cole and thousands of others
72799	74880	killed in combat. The remarks come as
74880	76799	questions loom about the possibility of
76799	78720	a diplomatic solution to reopen the
78720	80960	strait. Currently, the US naval blockade
80960	82799	remains in effect, costing the regime
82799	84560	hundreds of millions of dollars each
84560	86880	day. Still, the Iranians remain defiant
86880	91119	as technical talks continue with Oman.
91119	93119	>> As long as the US naval blockade remains
93119	95200	in place under UN General Assembly
95200	97920	Resolution 3314, a naval blockade of
97920	99520	this kind amounts to an act of
99520	101280	aggression. As long as other US
101280	103200	violations continue, the necessary
103200	104960	conditions will not be in place for us
104960	106640	to say that the straight of Hormuz has
106640	109280	become a safe waterway.
109280	111040	Maritime tracking groups say that an
111040	112640	incident was recorded this morning in
112640	114960	the Gulf of Oman between a vessel and a
114960	116960	military. Possible scentcom activity
116960	118799	there. We're also following reports of a
118799	120799	Houthi attack on a commercial vessel off
120799	123119	the coast of Yemen where three members
123119	125200	of a crew were reportedly killed. Now,
125200	126880	Brian, here in Israel, the military
126880	128479	remains on high alert. There are
128479	130640	uncertain days ahead, and there's a real
130640	132080	understanding that if a diplomatic
132080	134000	solution isn't reached, we may be
134000	135520	looking at a scenario where there is a
135520	138640	return to combat operations. Brian.
138640	140720	>> Yep. And I can't imagine going back to
140720	143440	combat full boore without the IDF. Uh,
143440	147080	thanks so much. appreciate.
