I apologize for interrupting you, but I want to bring some breaking news to our viewers here.

We're getting reports of some more strikes here in the Qatari capital of Doha.

Qatar's defense ministry Sundays Iran launched two missiles towards the territory.

S Run Aloudade air base, but no casualties have been reported.

Now thank you for bearing with us while we brought our guests that breaking news.

The point that you were making about the impact that this has coming up to the midterm elections and why so many people, so many Congress members want to put their vote on this on the record.

Because basically if you put your vote on it on the record one way or another, if your vote is proven correct by the passage of time, by the judgment of history, then you know, obviously you want to make, you want to take pride in that.

Conversely, though, members of Congress who vote in some way that is proven rash or ill judged by the judgment of history also have that on the record.

And of course, the broader theory here is our politicians should be accountable.

We should know what they believe and what they're willing to vote to stop or to approve.

We really appreciate you and your insights joining us here on Al Jazeera.
