00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:01.560
Speaker 1: Here's a report that

00:00:01.560 --> 00:00:03.660
an army helicopter went
down in the strait.

00:00:03.660 --> 00:00:04.940
Can you give us an
update on that?

00:00:04.940 --> 00:00:06.260
Are the soldiers okay?

00:00:06.260 --> 00:00:10.270
Speaker 2: The pilots are
fine. Nobody injured.

00:00:10.270 --> 00:00:13.560
We are going to issue
a report tomorrow,

00:00:13.560 --> 00:00:15.440
but the pilots are fine.

00:00:15.440 --> 00:00:16.640
We're very close to having a

00:00:16.640 --> 00:00:19.555
very good, strong,
powerful deal.

00:00:19.555 --> 00:00:21.520
If we go and bomb,

00:00:21.520 --> 00:00:23.820
which we can do very
easily if we want,

00:00:23.820 --> 00:00:26.420
and we spend another two
or three weeks bombing,

00:00:26.420 --> 00:00:28.560
they'll have nothing
left whatsoever.

00:00:28.560 --> 00:00:31.630
But you won't have the
strait open for months.

00:00:31.630 --> 00:00:33.350
If we do the bombing

00:00:33.350 --> 00:00:34.760
a lot of people are
going to be killed.

00:00:34.760 --> 00:00:37.275
Who wants to do that? I know.

00:00:37.275 --> 00:00:39.380
We'll have a signed
document that's

00:00:39.380 --> 00:00:41.760
actually stronger than
doing the bombing.

00:00:41.760 --> 00:00:43.640
What has proven to be

00:00:43.640 --> 00:00:46.260
a very powerful thing
is the blockade.

00:00:46.260 --> 00:00:49.735
The blockades turn out to be
much stronger than bombing.

00:00:49.735 --> 00:00:51.400
It was really a combination.

00:00:51.400 --> 00:00:54.825
It was our initial thrust
and then the blockade.

00:00:54.825 --> 00:00:57.480
But their economy is

00:00:57.480 --> 00:01:00.720
really suffering and they're
going to make a deal.
