In this excerpt, Friedman goes over the deal made after the 1973 war. It starts with "a cartoon of President Anwar el-Sadat lying flat on his back in a boxing ring. The Israeli prime minister, Golda Meir, wearing boxing gloves, was standing over him, with Sadat saying to Meir something like, “I want the trophy, I want the prize money, I want the belt.”" It was put there as both a joke and a serious case afterwards since this was when the US made the deal with Iran's Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, "concluding a deal that would restrict Iran’s ability to develop a nuclear weapon for 10 to 15 years in return for lifting sanctions." He goes on to say how bad the deal may seem as it leaves holes, and goes on to say how the problems in the future will not be solved. It shows a sense where credibility is tested and the overall sense of fear is trotted through and asks the reader how they feel it can be worked out.
