If you listen to this, you listen good, 14 00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:59,560 Speaker 3: because where I'm getting ready to say is what a 15 00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:01,880 Speaker 3: lot of peaceeople in this country speak for. Who I 16 00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:04,399 Speaker 3: speak for, and I speak for a lot of people 17 00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:06,920 Speaker 3: here me you fat. 18 00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:09,160 Speaker 2: But let's start with the war in the Middle East. 19 00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:11,720 Speaker 2: And there's been lots of developments in the past twenty 20 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:14,520 Speaker 2: four hours, but one of the key revelations has been 21 00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:19,559 Speaker 2: Israel's disclosure about why it first struck Iran late last month. 22 00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:24,160 Speaker 2: Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Sar has told the Zionis Federation 23 00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:27,440 Speaker 2: of Australia in a zoom address that the attacks were 24 00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:32,080 Speaker 2: driven by intelligence Tehran was planning to relocate its nuclear 25 00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:36,640 Speaker 2: facilities deep underground, beyond the reach of any air force. 26 00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:40,240 Speaker 2: He said, we would have stood in a hopeless situation 27 00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:44,000 Speaker 2: where Iran could just decide they want to be nuclear 28 00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:46,759 Speaker 2: and you couldn't attack them from the air. That would 29 00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:50,680 Speaker 2: be a desperate situation. This is why we decided the 30 00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:55,919 Speaker 2: Security Cabinet unanimously to take action, and to do it now. 31 00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:58,840 Speaker 2: Joining me to discuss this and more of the day's 32 00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:02,600 Speaker 2: headlines is Sky News contributor Louise Roberts and Better and 33 00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:08,840 Speaker 2: broadcaster and journalists DD Don'tlivy welcome both of you ladies, now, Louise. 34 00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:12,280 Speaker 2: There's been a lot of analysis and questioning as to 35 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:16,680 Speaker 2: what prompted the preemptive strikes from both Israel and the US, 36 00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:22,280 Speaker 2: and a lot of analysis and challenging of the legality, 37 00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:26,480 Speaker 2: the so called legality of this action, particularly by our 38 00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:31,040 Speaker 2: own ABC. But if Israeli intelligence is accurate here and 39 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:34,840 Speaker 2: it often is. It's very good. This move to fortify 40 00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:40,040 Speaker 2: Around's nuclear weapons and program from future attacks, well, that 41 00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:46,200 Speaker 2: is really endangering peace on a global scale, and surely 42 00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:48,200 Speaker 2: they would have had no choice but to act. 43 00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:51,120 Speaker 4: I agree, And certainly Trump's agenda here is willpeace. Let's 44 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:54,120 Speaker 4: not forget that. It's not just about aggression. And for Israel, 45 00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 4: I think this was a tactic for survival, not aggression 46 00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:01,320 Speaker 4: as well. And they acted before the window before Iran 47 00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:04,920 Speaker 4: moved all this, you know, weaponry and missiles and yuke's 48 00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:07,480 Speaker 4: underground into a bunker which we may never have found. 49 00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 4: And they've been very clear about their mission, which is 50 00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:14,040 Speaker 4: to obliterate Israel. So had Israel not acted first, well peace, 51 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:16,520 Speaker 4: we wouldn't have. It would be an absolute chaos. I mean, 52 00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:19,360 Speaker 4: Iran and nukes together is a recipe for disaster, isn't it? 53 00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:22,880 Speaker 2: Yeah? Absolutely, And it's interesting to me the countries that 54 00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:25,720 Speaker 2: are sticking up for a run like having a nuclear 55 00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:29,720 Speaker 2: weapon is somehow they're right in other countries, we cannot 56 00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:33,080 Speaker 2: allow that to happen, did he. We've also seen in 57 00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:37,240 Speaker 2: the past twenty four hours last day or so, the 58 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 2: Iranian regime finally announced it's new supreme leader. It's the 59 00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 2: son of the late ayotole A Taba Hamine. He is 60 00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:49,320 Speaker 2: going to be their man in the role and a 61 00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:52,040 Speaker 2: bit of a nepotism baby, I guess you could say 62 00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:55,800 Speaker 2: Israel and the US have flagged though already he won't 63 00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 2: last long. They will take him out if he is 64 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 2: I'm not going to follow what they want, which you 65 00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:05,840 Speaker 2: dare say, he's not going to someone who's the son 66 00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:08,480 Speaker 2: of the Ayatola. What do we know about this guy? 67 00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:12,760 Speaker 5: Oh, well, he's a very dangerous man, and he's said 68 00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:15,480 Speaker 5: to be even more radical than his father, with a 69 00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:19,280 Speaker 5: deeper hatred of the US. And bear in mind that 70 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:22,920 Speaker 5: in the US Israeli strikes that not only was his 71 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 5: father killed, but his mother, his wife, and one of 72 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:29,560 Speaker 5: his sons as well. He's got no previous government experience 73 00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:33,120 Speaker 5: as such, and so you have to wonder, Well, it's 74 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 5: entirely conceivable that the Iranian National Iranian forces, who he 75 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:42,240 Speaker 5: is closely aligned with, that they've pushed him forward. 76 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:46,880 Speaker 6: The Iranian Revolutionary Guard apologize that they've pushed. 77 00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:50,800 Speaker 5: Him forward and that he's just there to do their bidding, 78 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:52,960 Speaker 5: that whatever they tell him to do, they've not got. 79 00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:54,680 Speaker 6: A person in a seat of power. 80 00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:57,560 Speaker 5: And I do know he's got a personal wealth of 81 00:04:57,600 --> 00:05:00,800 Speaker 5: over three billion dollars. How he creates that we'll never 82 00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:04,159 Speaker 5: know owns a millions of dollars worth of property in London. 83 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:07,560 Speaker 5: So I just want to wish Sakias Starma well with 84 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:09,400 Speaker 5: that particular citizen. 85 00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:13,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, well, he's Sakis Starmer hasn't exactly been too 86 00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:16,640 Speaker 2: clear on which side he sits on himself. Maybe he's 87 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:20,799 Speaker 2: trying to be welcoming to his neighbor there, tity. Let's 88 00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:23,719 Speaker 2: talk about the disturbing footage that's emerged of the Iranian 89 00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:27,120 Speaker 2: women's soccer team bus as it left a Gold Coast 90 00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:29,919 Speaker 2: stadium last night, showing what appears to be one of 91 00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:34,080 Speaker 2: the players making the international sign for help. The clip 92 00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:38,480 Speaker 2: has renewed calls for Australia to intervene here, calls that 93 00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:42,200 Speaker 2: Foreign Minister Penny Wong won't say whether she's answered. 94 00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:44,760 Speaker 5: Is it safe for them to return home? 95 00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:50,440 Speaker 7: I want to say about the Iranian women's team that 96 00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:54,040 Speaker 7: it has been really moving for Australians to see them 97 00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:58,080 Speaker 7: in Australia. We stand in solidarity with the men and 98 00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:02,640 Speaker 7: women of Iran and particular Iranian women and girls. I 99 00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:08,520 Speaker 7: don't want to get into commentary about the Iranian women's 100 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:10,360 Speaker 7: team Louise. 101 00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:13,400 Speaker 2: After refusing to sing the anthem at their first match, 102 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:18,840 Speaker 2: they were branded wartime traitors on state Iranian TV and 103 00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 2: it was said that they are deserving of serious punishment. 104 00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:26,920 Speaker 2: I mean, you'd have to say, there's no doubt that 105 00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:30,080 Speaker 2: their lives are at risk if they had back home. 106 00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:32,760 Speaker 2: Should we be doing something more to help these women? 107 00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:34,640 Speaker 4: I think well, the Foreign Medicine needs to be a 108 00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:37,720 Speaker 4: bit more decisive in her comments rather than saying I'm 109 00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:39,640 Speaker 4: not going to make any comment about them. I mean, clearly, 110 00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:42,960 Speaker 4: if you've got them in buses making help signals, it's 111 00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:45,799 Speaker 4: absolutely harrowing. And I do feel a bone chilling fate 112 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:48,680 Speaker 4: awaits these athletes when they go back to Iran, even 113 00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:50,600 Speaker 4: if they go via Turkey, because we know that it 114 00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:53,760 Speaker 4: already a national footballer and a referee were murdered by 115 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:56,320 Speaker 4: the regime four speaking out, so they already have blood 116 00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:58,920 Speaker 4: on their hands and no matter who's now taken up 117 00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:04,680 Speaker 4: the cudgel, there definitely at risk. To see them fight 118 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:07,279 Speaker 4: against you know, seeing the national anthem and then have 119 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:10,440 Speaker 4: to see the national anthem was absolutely heartbreaking out very 120 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:12,560 Speaker 4: harrowing to watch them because you could see they were 121 00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:14,920 Speaker 4: most of them were dead eyed and very frightened and. 122 00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:17,160 Speaker 2: Do the salute. On top of that, there was no 123 00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:19,800 Speaker 2: doubt that words were said in their ear. You have 124 00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:22,160 Speaker 2: to make up for what you did the first time. 125 00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:25,200 Speaker 2: You're right, it was harrowing, did he Assistant Foreign Minister 126 00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:29,200 Speaker 2: Foreign Affairs spokesman Matt there's a way he's somewhat walked 127 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:32,160 Speaker 2: back comments that he made earlier that the government could 128 00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:36,000 Speaker 2: not give these players preferential treatment. He's now said, like 129 00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 2: Penny Wong, he can't make any comments about this. He 130 00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 2: said he didn't want to prejudice any decisions later on. 131 00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:45,040 Speaker 2: Do you think that this is a positive sign that 132 00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 2: maybe there are things happening behind the scenes. 133 00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:51,760 Speaker 5: Look, I want to believe that there are negotiations going 134 00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 5: on that we're not being made privy to, and that 135 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:56,520 Speaker 5: would be okay if that was happening, But I don't 136 00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 5: have the confidence that it is. 137 00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:00,960 Speaker 6: And it must be terrifying for these young women. 138 00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:03,680 Speaker 5: Most of them are only maybe twenty three, twenty four, 139 00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:06,680 Speaker 5: they've never been outside of Iran before, and they're faced 140 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:09,320 Speaker 5: with the prospect of if they do try and seek 141 00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:11,600 Speaker 5: asylum and stay here in Australia, what will happen to 142 00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:16,520 Speaker 5: their families back home, who have very likely been detained 143 00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 5: as a sort of a means to put pressure on 144 00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:20,720 Speaker 5: them to come back home again. 145 00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:22,440 Speaker 6: I've got questions too. 146 00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:25,200 Speaker 5: About the people, the officials who are surrounding this team. 147 00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:28,280 Speaker 5: They're cutting them off their communications, their phones, They're not 148 00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:31,240 Speaker 5: being allowed to speak to anyone else. Those people are 149 00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:34,520 Speaker 5: clearly doing the bidding of the Iranian government, and so 150 00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:38,720 Speaker 5: how are they able to exercise that sort of control 151 00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:43,719 Speaker 5: on Australian soil. Tracy Holmes on her substack has been 152 00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:46,360 Speaker 5: doing some excellent reporting on this particular issue, and she's 153 00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:50,040 Speaker 5: reported today that the women are being denied access to 154 00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:52,600 Speaker 5: a human rights lawyer. So it just becomes more and 155 00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:55,040 Speaker 5: more concerning, and I feel for these poor girls. 156 00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:59,960 Speaker 2: Let's hope that their futures they don't have to head back, 157 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:03,240 Speaker 2: and if they do that they're safe. But I don't 158 00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:04,920 Speaker 2: have a lot of hope for that if they have 159 00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:08,400 Speaker 2: to go back. Look, let's talk now about the coalition 160 00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:12,280 Speaker 2: and the Australian reports that the opposition is considering forcing 161 00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:16,240 Speaker 2: people who appeal their visa cancelations to do so in 162 00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:19,440 Speaker 2: their country of origin, rather than be allowed to remain 163 00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:23,120 Speaker 2: here on bridging visas while the legal process plays out. 164 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:26,280 Speaker 2: The paper also reports the Coalition as likely to propose 165 00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:30,600 Speaker 2: an extra layer of vetting for visa applicants from countries 166 00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:34,360 Speaker 2: with high levels of radicalization. Did I'll come to you 167 00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:37,199 Speaker 2: first on this one. I would imagine this would be 168 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:40,079 Speaker 2: an easy vote winner for the Coalition. Australians is sick 169 00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:45,079 Speaker 2: of lawyers and migration agents weaponizing our legal system, that 170 00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:48,080 Speaker 2: concerned about national security. If you look at any of 171 00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:52,360 Speaker 2: the recent polls, especially after what happened in BONDI surely 172 00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:53,600 Speaker 2: this is a winning policy. 173 00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:56,840 Speaker 6: I absolutely agree with you, Caroline. Idiots. We've got more 174 00:09:56,880 --> 00:09:58,480 Speaker 6: than one hundred thousand. 175 00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:02,760 Speaker 5: Asylum seekers currently on Australian soil, and the lawyers and 176 00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:06,720 Speaker 5: the migration agents are finding those loopholes, and we really 177 00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:09,000 Speaker 5: need a crack down on people who are saying that 178 00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:11,720 Speaker 5: they're coming here to study something in particular or work 179 00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:14,960 Speaker 5: in some particular way and then changing that once they're here. 180 00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:18,480 Speaker 5: But stay in your own home until your visa is clear. 181 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:21,240 Speaker 5: That's the way it should work. And we need an 182 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:23,440 Speaker 5: overhaul of the migration Act. It was written back in 183 00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:27,080 Speaker 5: nineteen fifty eight. It's stale and musty and definitely needs 184 00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:29,559 Speaker 5: an update. But as you said, I agree it's a 185 00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:30,200 Speaker 5: vote winner. 186 00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:32,760 Speaker 2: Well, I hope that they follow through with it. I 187 00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:35,280 Speaker 2: think they'd be mad if they didn't. Look, it's been 188 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:40,040 Speaker 2: revealed the ABC has copped a deluge of negative feedback 189 00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:44,000 Speaker 2: about its Middle East coverage, driving more than fifty percent 190 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:47,800 Speaker 2: rise and complaints in the six months to December thirty. First, 191 00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:52,200 Speaker 2: they were the three thousand and forty three complaints specifically 192 00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:55,520 Speaker 2: about ABC content in that period, up from two thousand 193 00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:59,120 Speaker 2: and eight complaints the year before. And the segment that 194 00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:02,720 Speaker 2: drew the most plants was Sarah Ferguson's seven point thirty 195 00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:07,240 Speaker 2: interview with former Treasurer Josh Fredenberg following the Bondi tarror 196 00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 2: attack last year. Let's remind you. 197 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:14,720 Speaker 8: Of that exchange, widely viewed as inevitable that you will 198 00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:18,960 Speaker 8: return to politics. How do we not see this through 199 00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:22,760 Speaker 8: a political lens. I mean the case that you're making 200 00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:24,760 Speaker 8: a personal case against the Prime minister. 201 00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:29,440 Speaker 9: I'm deeply offended by what you just said. I'm deeply offended. 202 00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:32,760 Speaker 9: Explain that, and you know what, there was a man 203 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:35,800 Speaker 9: called Murray Watt, who sits on the labor front bench, 204 00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:38,400 Speaker 9: who tried to say that about a year ago, and 205 00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:42,280 Speaker 9: then labor ministers like Mike Kelly and others he hear 206 00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:46,040 Speaker 9: me who came out and said exactly what I'm about 207 00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:49,160 Speaker 9: to say, which is that is an insult. That is 208 00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:53,520 Speaker 9: an insult to say that there's any political motivation in this. 209 00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:58,280 Speaker 2: It was extraordinary. But another moment which drew fierce audience 210 00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:02,080 Speaker 2: criticism was on Hardcore Is, hosted by Tom Gleeson. 211 00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:06,120 Speaker 10: The Social network opens with Mark Zuckerberg getting dumped by 212 00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:09,040 Speaker 10: his girlfriend, who tells him that if girls don't like him, 213 00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:12,040 Speaker 10: it's because he's an asshole, not because he's a what 214 00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:26,959 Speaker 10: it's wide open, Mike, do increase Its still wide open? Quick? 215 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:35,920 Speaker 10: Someone feel the awkward silence? Time's up, Nerd, Yeah, it's. 216 00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:40,560 Speaker 2: I mean, if leaving that in there wasn't bad enough, 217 00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:44,040 Speaker 2: all the laughter that continued afterwards just compounded at Louise. 218 00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:48,640 Speaker 2: The ABC Onbudsman cleared the broadcaster for both segments. They 219 00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:52,160 Speaker 2: did take down that hard quiz one off IVY, but 220 00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:55,880 Speaker 2: said that was just due to rising sensitivities after the attack. 221 00:12:55,960 --> 00:13:00,800 Speaker 2: But clearly that sort of anti Semitism is never, of 222 00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:01,240 Speaker 2: course not. 223 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:03,440 Speaker 4: I mean the ABC always seems to be responding to 224 00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 4: pressure rather than having this consistent you know, playbook or 225 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:09,920 Speaker 4: consistent rules whatever the new cycle. You don't suddenly decide 226 00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:11,880 Speaker 4: it's bad because it's bad for the new cycle at 227 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:13,680 Speaker 4: the moment. I mean, you watched that footage and he 228 00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:16,319 Speaker 4: absolutely wins the laughter as you say, and the host 229 00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:18,719 Speaker 4: is laughing. And the fact they broadcast that it doesn't matter. 230 00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:20,920 Speaker 4: They've taken off the website. The damage is done. And 231 00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:25,120 Speaker 4: I mean to Sarah Ferguson's interview with Josh was just 232 00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:27,000 Speaker 4: even now. I would say it's one of the worst 233 00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:29,360 Speaker 4: things I've seen on TV. The way she made him square, 234 00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:33,160 Speaker 4: and when we know his grief was so visceral and real, 235 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:35,760 Speaker 4: for her to politicize in that way is absolutely appalling. 236 00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:39,440 Speaker 2: Did he I agree with Louise, I think that it 237 00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:42,560 Speaker 2: was fair to ask a question in a certain way, 238 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:44,480 Speaker 2: But it was the way she put the question and 239 00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:48,000 Speaker 2: continued to try, as she often does, to interrupt the 240 00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:50,600 Speaker 2: former treasurer as he was trying to answer that question 241 00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:54,760 Speaker 2: that exacerbated the offense. I think in the first. 242 00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:57,760 Speaker 5: Place, absolutely, And he's a man who's used to the 243 00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:00,760 Speaker 5: Rothham tumble of politics and being asked all sorts of 244 00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:04,599 Speaker 5: things at different times, and even he looked like he 245 00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:09,240 Speaker 5: was struggling to gather himself to maintain his decorum, which 246 00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:12,400 Speaker 5: he did and ieolute him for doing that. It's interesting 247 00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:16,360 Speaker 5: that four out of the top five most complained about 248 00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:21,000 Speaker 5: programs on the ABC news and current affairs content, and 249 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:23,120 Speaker 5: you know when you turn on the ABC you're going 250 00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:24,200 Speaker 5: to get lefty content. 251 00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:26,560 Speaker 6: So I'm actually slightly baffled by these. 252 00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:29,760 Speaker 5: Statistics because is if the lefties who are watching it, 253 00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:32,400 Speaker 5: who have finally had enough and their complaining, I mean, 254 00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:34,400 Speaker 5: who are these complaints coming from. 255 00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:37,880 Speaker 2: Well, in terms of the Middle East coverage, interestingly, it's 256 00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:41,440 Speaker 2: pretty divided, people saying they're two pro Palestinian, two pro 257 00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:44,320 Speaker 2: Is around me. To be honest, I can't see how 258 00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:46,320 Speaker 2: anyone could say they're two pro Is well, but that 259 00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:49,400 Speaker 2: just tells you how far to the left many of 260 00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:53,280 Speaker 2: their viewers and their bases. But look, they receive taxpayer funding, 261 00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:56,160 Speaker 2: don't they, And they are meant to be impartial, and 262 00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:59,200 Speaker 2: so their news needs to meet those editorial standards. Did 263 00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:01,680 Speaker 2: he done? Leave the Roberts? Thank you both so much 264 00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:07,720 Speaker 2: for your time. Joining me in our is geologist and 265 00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:11,200 Speaker 2: author professor in plimber Ian. Great to have you again. 266 00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:15,720 Speaker 2: Australians are now facing fuel rationing and exorbitant prices at 267 00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:19,280 Speaker 2: the pump as petrol and diesel wholesalers scramble to manage 268 00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:23,960 Speaker 2: fuel supplies. United Petroleum, one of the nation's largest wholesalers, 269 00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:28,000 Speaker 2: has already suspended its normal fuel allocations nationwide while it 270 00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:30,640 Speaker 2: reviews stock levels and the current risks due to the 271 00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:34,080 Speaker 2: conflict in the Middle East, and some economists are even 272 00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:38,120 Speaker 2: forecasting prices at the bowser will surpass three dollars a 273 00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:42,840 Speaker 2: liter in Chris Bowen. Meanwhile, he's been reassuring us everything 274 00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:44,360 Speaker 2: is going to be fine. 275 00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:48,160 Speaker 11: But the government has been warned about this for at 276 00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:52,360 Speaker 11: least two decades. We don't have enough fuel in storage 277 00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:56,920 Speaker 11: in this country. To exacerbate that, we've slowed down exploration 278 00:15:57,280 --> 00:15:59,920 Speaker 11: for oil and for gas. To make it even more, 279 00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:04,480 Speaker 11: we've gone some eight refineries to two refineries. And mister 280 00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:08,760 Speaker 11: Bowen is in Lalla Land. We have a crisis in 281 00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:11,760 Speaker 11: this country. We don't have enough petroleum to keep this 282 00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:15,160 Speaker 11: country going now. We need diesel to take food from 283 00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:20,080 Speaker 11: warehouses to supermarkets. We need diesel to plow, to plant, 284 00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:24,800 Speaker 11: to seed, to harvest, and to bring our crops to 285 00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:29,280 Speaker 11: the cities for people to eat. So we've been talking 286 00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:33,160 Speaker 11: about this for decades. Nothing has happened, and this is 287 00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:36,760 Speaker 11: the hallmark of the government. Nothing has happened on the 288 00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:40,800 Speaker 11: major strategic issues in this country. So I think we 289 00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:44,520 Speaker 11: can suffer higher fuel prices. You also have to bear 290 00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:49,080 Speaker 11: in mind that petrol is cheaper than say buying wine, 291 00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:53,080 Speaker 11: or buying beer, or buying some bottled water or some 292 00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:57,800 Speaker 11: fermented soft drinks. Now it's a very, very complex and 293 00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:01,960 Speaker 11: expensive process to go from ex exploration to actually putting 294 00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:05,600 Speaker 11: petrol or diesel into your car. And mister Baron's solution 295 00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:06,800 Speaker 11: is going to be a simple one. 296 00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:07,639 Speaker 1: Just wait for it. 297 00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:11,200 Speaker 11: He'll tell us, I'll forget driving petrol cars start to 298 00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:12,479 Speaker 11: drive electric cars. 299 00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:15,920 Speaker 1: We have been let down badly by our government. 300 00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:19,280 Speaker 2: Well we're already hearing that from some sections of the 301 00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:22,159 Speaker 2: government too, that ivy cars should be the answer. Well, 302 00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:24,159 Speaker 2: they're clearly not going to be for everyone, especially in 303 00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:28,040 Speaker 2: a country like ours doesn't have the infrastructure. And the 304 00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:31,720 Speaker 2: CEO of Ford has blasted the Albanese government's new carbon 305 00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:35,720 Speaker 2: taxes on vehicles wanting the high extra costs on the 306 00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:39,639 Speaker 2: company may put its Australian based engineering and design team 307 00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:43,399 Speaker 2: of fifteen hundred workers at risk. Speaking while at the 308 00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:47,159 Speaker 2: Grand Prix over the weekend, Jim Farley said, it's a 309 00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:50,400 Speaker 2: choice because that engineering can be done in a lot 310 00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:54,280 Speaker 2: of other places cheaper and faster here in Australia versus 311 00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:57,480 Speaker 2: China or Vietnam or other places. There is a premium 312 00:17:57,520 --> 00:18:00,920 Speaker 2: for innovation, so we're willing to pay. But your government 313 00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:03,720 Speaker 2: has to decide if they want engineers in their country 314 00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:07,639 Speaker 2: or do you want a country of hairdressers and bankers. 315 00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:11,160 Speaker 2: And I love a good hairdresser. And don't get me wrong, 316 00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:13,720 Speaker 2: but Ford is one of the few carmakers that still 317 00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:17,040 Speaker 2: designs and engineers. It's car from the ground up in Australia, 318 00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:20,120 Speaker 2: even if they don't manufacture them here anymore. But now 319 00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:24,159 Speaker 2: it looks like Albanize is apparent preference for these Chinese 320 00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:27,040 Speaker 2: evs will force what is left of Ford out of 321 00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:27,640 Speaker 2: the country. 322 00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:31,879 Speaker 11: Well, that's quite correct, and we just had a lesson 323 00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:34,840 Speaker 11: in reality Ford and trying to give the government a 324 00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:38,360 Speaker 11: fundamental economic lesson. Now I like to have the choice, 325 00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:41,320 Speaker 11: do I want to buy a petrol vehicle. Do I 326 00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:43,360 Speaker 11: want to buy diesel vehicle? Do I want to buy 327 00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:45,680 Speaker 11: an EV? Do I want to buy something can go 328 00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:47,639 Speaker 11: out back? Do I want to buy something to go 329 00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:51,000 Speaker 11: from the house to the local supermarket. We are having 330 00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:54,119 Speaker 11: that choice denied by governments and they're forcing us to 331 00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:58,119 Speaker 11: use an EV. You cannot plow a field with an 332 00:18:58,119 --> 00:19:03,160 Speaker 11: electric vehicle to produce food. You cannot drive from Brisbane 333 00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:07,080 Speaker 11: to long Reach in an electric vehicle. You just don't 334 00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:09,720 Speaker 11: have the infrastructure and you don't have the range. So 335 00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:13,760 Speaker 11: what we are being given in this country is no choice, 336 00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:16,719 Speaker 11: a lack of freedom, and we are told go and 337 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:21,600 Speaker 11: support your Chinese mates, help out the Chinese economy, destroy 338 00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:24,720 Speaker 11: your own economy, help out the Chinese, and don't drive 339 00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:26,119 Speaker 11: a Ford or a GM. 340 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:27,000 Speaker 1: Car or something else. 341 00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:29,399 Speaker 11: And I think he's absolutely on the money. And the 342 00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:32,560 Speaker 11: Grand Prix was a great place to give us this message. 343 00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:36,479 Speaker 2: Yeah. Look, Australia's Bigcause Data center operators have more than 344 00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:39,760 Speaker 2: double they reported carbon emissions over the past five years. 345 00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:45,240 Speaker 2: As artificial intelligence continues to see more and more investment. Operators, Amazon, Air, 346 00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:49,119 Speaker 2: Trunk and CDC all declared annual scope to emissions increases 347 00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:52,159 Speaker 2: of more than twenty percent in the year between twenty 348 00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:55,320 Speaker 2: twenty four and twenty twenty five a loon Ian No 349 00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:56,800 Speaker 2: one tell chrispo in this. 350 00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:02,720 Speaker 11: Look, Caroline, if we can concerned about emissions and data centers, 351 00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:05,919 Speaker 11: we could put small modular nuclear reactors there. 352 00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:07,919 Speaker 1: Now, if we're not concerned. 353 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:10,680 Speaker 11: About emissions of carbon dioxide, which are the gas of life, 354 00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:13,920 Speaker 11: which is plant food, then we should cheer that we're 355 00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:17,320 Speaker 11: putting more plant food into the atmosphere. The green should 356 00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:20,040 Speaker 11: be really pleased that our forests are growing more and 357 00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:23,240 Speaker 11: since we've got more food for wildlife. So it's a 358 00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:26,760 Speaker 11: case again of get real. If we want data centers, 359 00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:29,160 Speaker 11: we need more energy, and we're not going to get 360 00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:33,080 Speaker 11: that increased energy from sea breezes and sunbeams. 361 00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:36,520 Speaker 1: It just doesn't happen. It doesn't have enough Grunt No. 362 00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:41,320 Speaker 2: One Nation. Let's talk about that party because they've announced 363 00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:45,359 Speaker 2: their new candidate for pharaoh, and it's an agricultural businessman 364 00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:50,000 Speaker 2: called David Farley. He said that water and power will 365 00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:53,160 Speaker 2: be key issues on his agenda. We know One Nation 366 00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:56,960 Speaker 2: is surging in popularity in the polls, but do you 367 00:20:57,000 --> 00:21:00,760 Speaker 2: think this candidate in particular will pose a bill threat 368 00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:04,159 Speaker 2: to the coalition in the upcoming by election in Susan 369 00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:07,040 Speaker 2: Lee's old seat in Sparah. 370 00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:10,240 Speaker 11: We have three big rivers, the Darling, the Murrambidgee and 371 00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:14,480 Speaker 11: the Murray, which provide us water to grow food. One 372 00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:17,560 Speaker 11: Nation is the only party that has a water policy, 373 00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:20,280 Speaker 11: so I think that's going to make them quite popular 374 00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:23,000 Speaker 11: in that area. In terms of energy, One Nation have 375 00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:28,160 Speaker 11: been consistent for decades that the whole net zero business 376 00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:31,280 Speaker 11: is just a load of rubbish. Now last weekend I 377 00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:34,760 Speaker 11: spoke to a One Nation group in Rockhampton and what 378 00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:37,399 Speaker 11: we read in the press so these are swivel eyed, 379 00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:41,840 Speaker 11: gun toating, Nazi saluting Trump lovers, and they're not. 380 00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:43,679 Speaker 1: They're just normal people. 381 00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:46,840 Speaker 11: And I was really impressed with the questions that I 382 00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:50,320 Speaker 11: had from people with my climate talk. These people have 383 00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:53,160 Speaker 11: done their reading, they knew this stuff. And I think 384 00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:55,679 Speaker 11: the major political parties have got to be worried because 385 00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:58,440 Speaker 11: One Nation are actually in the middle ground. 386 00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:00,240 Speaker 1: They're not an extremist group. 387 00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:04,600 Speaker 11: And in the seat of Farah, water is absolutely fundamental. 388 00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:07,720 Speaker 11: In the seat of Farah, like everywhere else in Australia, 389 00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:12,159 Speaker 11: the price of energy is fundamental to our costs. So 390 00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:15,760 Speaker 11: I think it's probably a good policy to pursue, and 391 00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:18,000 Speaker 11: I look at interested with what happens in Farah. 392 00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:20,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think you've hit the nail on the head 393 00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:23,399 Speaker 2: that in particular will be really key issues for that seat. 394 00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:26,119 Speaker 2: And on top of that, what you say about the 395 00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:28,600 Speaker 2: people who vote for one nation. They've been demonized for 396 00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:31,000 Speaker 2: such a long time, but our poles are showing more 397 00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:35,000 Speaker 2: and more people are supporting them, and they're attracting quality 398 00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:38,160 Speaker 2: candidates like this one here in parah Ian Plymouth. Thank 399 00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:39,080 Speaker 2: you so much for your time. 400 00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:40,720 Speaker 1: Thank you, Caroline. 401 00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:44,280 Speaker 2: Still to come. Left is losing it and Whya RAN's 402 00:22:44,320 --> 00:22:47,879 Speaker 2: new supreme leader shouldn't get too comfortable. I'll speak to 403 00:22:47,960 --> 00:23:01,120 Speaker 2: Josh Hammer next. And now it's time lefties losing it. 404 00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:04,679 Speaker 2: Sunday was International Women's Day, so in honor of that, 405 00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:09,840 Speaker 2: let's begin with some unhinged lefty ladies single handedly setting 406 00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:12,760 Speaker 2: back the case for women's rights. Here's a group of 407 00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:39,720 Speaker 2: them gathering in a New York park to collectively screen yep, 408 00:23:39,880 --> 00:23:45,200 Speaker 2: really helping to dismantle the patriarchy their ladies. Meanwhile, everyone's 409 00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:49,679 Speaker 2: favorite feminist Kamala Harris managed to make American civil rights 410 00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:54,960 Speaker 2: activist Jesse Jackson's funeral, Well, all about her. I predicted 411 00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:56,680 Speaker 2: a lot about what's happening right now. 412 00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:07,120 Speaker 7: I'm not into saying I told you so, but we 413 00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:08,159 Speaker 7: did see it coming. 414 00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:12,520 Speaker 2: But Kamala wasn't the only Democrat making a fool of 415 00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:17,040 Speaker 2: themselves at the reverence farewell. Former US President Joe Biden 416 00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:21,160 Speaker 2: seized his moment to tell a mostly black audience, He's 417 00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 2: smarter than them. 418 00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:25,400 Speaker 12: I told you all earlier when I was a kid, 419 00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:28,320 Speaker 12: I had a cleft palate or a club foot, and 420 00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:32,040 Speaker 12: none even laughed. But it's okay to laugh at stuttering. 421 00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:35,880 Speaker 12: I'm not being critical of you, but think about it. 422 00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:40,160 Speaker 12: It's the one place for people think you're stupid. Oh really, 423 00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:42,480 Speaker 12: I'm held a lot smarter most of you. 424 00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:48,840 Speaker 2: And the crowd just laughed. Yet apparently Trump is the racist. 425 00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:52,840 Speaker 2: But the Democrats weren't done yet, another former president using 426 00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:56,399 Speaker 2: the funeral to take a cheap shot at MAGA supporters. 427 00:24:57,440 --> 00:25:02,920 Speaker 13: Everywhere we see greed and bigotry being celebrated, and bullying. 428 00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:06,520 Speaker 11: And mockery masquerading as strength. 429 00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:10,639 Speaker 2: Why not just call them a basket of deplorables again. 430 00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:14,359 Speaker 2: The reverend's son, Jesse Jackson Jr. Wasn't having a minute 431 00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:17,280 Speaker 2: of the politicization of his father's funeral. 432 00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:20,040 Speaker 1: I listened. 433 00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:28,280 Speaker 11: For several hours of three United States presidents. 434 00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:31,200 Speaker 9: Who do not know Jesse Jackson. 435 00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:37,720 Speaker 2: But now to another committed anti Trumper, Woillo Pee Goldberg, 436 00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:41,159 Speaker 2: who actually claimed on the view Joe Biden could have 437 00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:45,160 Speaker 2: fixed a legal immigration if only Donald Trump had let him. 438 00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:52,000 Speaker 14: Because you know, Joe Biden, I remember doing the speech 439 00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:57,560 Speaker 14: to the nation, said I we have a good border 440 00:25:57,640 --> 00:25:59,520 Speaker 14: plan that is bipartisan. 441 00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:02,960 Speaker 2: If you let us know. It didn't fail. 442 00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:08,800 Speaker 14: The Republicans were told by you know who, don't do. 443 00:26:08,840 --> 00:26:10,000 Speaker 6: This to block this. 444 00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:11,639 Speaker 1: So that's the person. 445 00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:15,280 Speaker 2: Do you love how they can't even bring themselves to 446 00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:18,520 Speaker 2: say Trump's name. It says if he's Voldemort, out of 447 00:26:18,560 --> 00:26:23,840 Speaker 2: Harry Potter. Meanwhile, Democrats strategist James Cavell is embracing his 448 00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:28,520 Speaker 2: Trump derangement syndrome in this truly insane right. 449 00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:32,440 Speaker 3: Give fact Trump. If you listen to this, you listen good, 450 00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:35,399 Speaker 3: because what I'm getting ready to say is what a 451 00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:37,679 Speaker 3: lot of people in this country speak for. Who I 452 00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:40,200 Speaker 3: speak for, and I speak for a lot of people. 453 00:26:40,280 --> 00:26:43,760 Speaker 3: You hear me, You fat I got. 454 00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:45,040 Speaker 1: Trump derangement syndrome. 455 00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:48,560 Speaker 15: I hate, And you know what I don't want to 456 00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:51,320 Speaker 15: get rid of it. I don't want to get better. 457 00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:54,720 Speaker 15: I want to get worse. I want to hate him more. 458 00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:56,000 Speaker 15: We want more. 459 00:26:56,280 --> 00:26:58,800 Speaker 3: We want to hate the son of so much that 460 00:26:58,880 --> 00:26:59,960 Speaker 3: we can't see straight. 461 00:27:01,280 --> 00:27:05,240 Speaker 2: Someone please fetch that man's mouth some soap. But back 462 00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:07,679 Speaker 2: to International Women's Day, and I want to leave you 463 00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:12,119 Speaker 2: with these scenes from Sydney where Iranian Australian protesters standing 464 00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:15,119 Speaker 2: up for the human rights of Iranian women told a 465 00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:19,560 Speaker 2: group of pro Palestinian gate crashes in Persian where they 466 00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:41,360 Speaker 2: could put their flags. Now that's some screaming I can 467 00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:42,399 Speaker 2: get behind. 468 00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:43,760 Speaker 12: Well. 469 00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:48,080 Speaker 2: Iran has ended the speculation surrounding its next leader, naming 470 00:27:48,240 --> 00:27:53,080 Speaker 2: Mataba Hamone as its new Islamist dictator after his father, 471 00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:57,800 Speaker 2: Ayotola Ali Hamone, was killed in joint US Israel strikes. 472 00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:02,400 Speaker 2: But Donald Trump has warned a RAN's new Ayotola, shouldn't 473 00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:07,200 Speaker 2: make himself too comfortable in his new office, telling ABC America, 474 00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:10,400 Speaker 2: if he doesn't get approval from US, he's not going 475 00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:13,080 Speaker 2: to last long. I don't want people to have to 476 00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:15,679 Speaker 2: go back in five years and have to do the 477 00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:20,040 Speaker 2: same thing again, or worse, let them have a nuclear weapon. 478 00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:23,640 Speaker 2: Israel has also vowed to go after the new Supreme 479 00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:27,000 Speaker 2: leader and those who appointed him. For more on this, 480 00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:31,639 Speaker 2: let's now bring in Newsweek's senior editor at large, Josh Hammer. Josh, 481 00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:34,560 Speaker 2: great to see you. You'd have to imagine the new 482 00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:38,440 Speaker 2: Ayotola would be feeling slightly nervous at this point. How 483 00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:40,120 Speaker 2: long do you give his leadership? 484 00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:44,080 Speaker 16: Yeah, I don't think there's much in the way of 485 00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:48,360 Speaker 16: job security or job tenure when it comes to Ayotola 486 00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:51,360 Speaker 16: these days in the long Republic of Roan. Frankly, I 487 00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:54,920 Speaker 16: think back to the post October seventh Hamas leadership or frankly, 488 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:56,960 Speaker 16: that has bowl leadership of the matter. Look, when the 489 00:28:57,040 --> 00:28:59,600 Speaker 16: United States and are allie Israel, when these two countries 490 00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:02,080 Speaker 16: go to war, or they mean what they say and 491 00:29:02,120 --> 00:29:05,880 Speaker 16: they act upon what they say. Already you've actually seen 492 00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:09,600 Speaker 16: some interim iatolas after the Commedy Association a little over week. 493 00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:12,440 Speaker 16: You've already seen some interim iotols who have already been 494 00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:15,280 Speaker 16: taken out of course, earlier this past week and in 495 00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:17,880 Speaker 16: the Iranian city of Calm, where you had the assembly 496 00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:20,640 Speaker 16: of experts they call that that were that were meeting 497 00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:22,960 Speaker 16: to elect a new iatola. Israel Es sense you blew 498 00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:25,880 Speaker 16: up the entire meeting. You had dozens of dead experts. 499 00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:29,040 Speaker 16: Of these experts, so I would not place a particularly 500 00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:32,000 Speaker 16: large wager that that that the son of comedy is 501 00:29:32,040 --> 00:29:34,640 Speaker 16: going to last on the job for a very long time. 502 00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:37,440 Speaker 16: As far as who he is himself, he frankly has 503 00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:41,120 Speaker 16: actually not been particularly outspoken. He's been someone behind the scenes, 504 00:29:41,120 --> 00:29:44,040 Speaker 16: someone more of a shadow figure. Certainly, we can surmise 505 00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:46,840 Speaker 16: a lot based on his last name Kameni, and we 506 00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:49,320 Speaker 16: believe based one we can tell that he is just 507 00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:51,880 Speaker 16: as some people are speculating action potentially even more hard 508 00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:53,720 Speaker 16: line than his father, who of course is one of 509 00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:57,200 Speaker 16: the most brutal, despotic Islamis thugs ever, I mean literally 510 00:29:57,320 --> 00:30:00,440 Speaker 16: in the entire history of mankind. So this doesn't bode 511 00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:04,000 Speaker 16: particularly well for the future of Iran. But as I said, 512 00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:05,840 Speaker 16: if I were a Betty Man, which I'm not, but 513 00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:07,560 Speaker 16: if I hadn't thought he were a Betty man'd be 514 00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:10,640 Speaker 16: very keen with you. I probably would bet ah, I 515 00:30:10,680 --> 00:30:12,360 Speaker 16: would say he's probably gonna last but a week or 516 00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:14,000 Speaker 16: two tops on the job. I had to place wager. 517 00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:16,960 Speaker 2: Honestly, yeah, I wouldn't be buying too much new funiture 518 00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:19,160 Speaker 2: if I was him, it might all need to be 519 00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:23,440 Speaker 2: redecorated soon. But President Trump has also responded to accusations 520 00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:27,240 Speaker 2: the US was responsible for an apparent strike on an 521 00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:30,880 Speaker 2: Iranian girls school which just destroyed the school and it 522 00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:35,640 Speaker 2: killed scores of children. Trump told reporters aboard Air Force 523 00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:39,400 Speaker 2: One that the Iranian regime were the ones responsible. 524 00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:43,280 Speaker 10: Here, he is, did the United States bomb a girls 525 00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:45,680 Speaker 10: elementary school in southern Iran on the first day of 526 00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:47,400 Speaker 10: the war and kill one hundred and seventy five people? 527 00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:51,360 Speaker 13: Based on what I've seen, that was done by Iran? 528 00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:54,840 Speaker 1: What's that true, mister? Except who was Iran? Who did that? 529 00:30:55,040 --> 00:30:57,560 Speaker 13: Was safely investiget It was still funny. 530 00:30:58,000 --> 00:31:01,360 Speaker 6: The only side the targets Sibilillians is Iran. 531 00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:07,480 Speaker 2: But Iran's foreign minister Abbas Aarachi told NBC News that 532 00:31:07,560 --> 00:31:11,000 Speaker 2: it couldn't have been then because get this, Josh, they 533 00:31:11,040 --> 00:31:12,800 Speaker 2: don't kill their own people. 534 00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:17,960 Speaker 6: President Trump said Iran is responsible for that strike. What 535 00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:20,760 Speaker 6: is your response to what the President said. 536 00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:28,480 Speaker 17: Well, it is you know funny. It is our school. 537 00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:33,160 Speaker 17: These are our students, our girls, and they are attacked 538 00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:37,320 Speaker 17: by an American fighter, a judge fighter, and they have 539 00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:41,880 Speaker 17: been killed why it is responsibility. Have we started this war? 540 00:31:42,640 --> 00:31:44,120 Speaker 17: Have we attacked our own people? 541 00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:47,320 Speaker 2: Oh well, josh heah, I think we can say they 542 00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:50,120 Speaker 2: have attacked their own people. Some estimate the regime have 543 00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:53,280 Speaker 2: killed now more than thirty six thousand of its own 544 00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:57,719 Speaker 2: people in recent months alone. So no one's possibly buying this, 545 00:31:58,120 --> 00:31:59,920 Speaker 2: are they? 546 00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:00,240 Speaker 13: So? 547 00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:03,360 Speaker 16: First of all, I might be in the minority in this, 548 00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:05,520 Speaker 16: but I am of the opinion that when your country 549 00:32:05,640 --> 00:32:08,760 Speaker 16: is at war, like literally actively at war, you probably 550 00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:11,960 Speaker 16: should not be giving interviews to high ranking members of 551 00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:13,880 Speaker 16: the country that you were at war with. So I 552 00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:16,080 Speaker 16: don't I don't really know why Kristen Weilcore and MBC 553 00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:18,720 Speaker 16: News are dating to get this interview in the first place. There, 554 00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:21,640 Speaker 16: But to your point, yeah, actually, the fact that Aron 555 00:32:21,840 --> 00:32:24,320 Speaker 16: slaughtered tens and tens of thousands. We don't even know 556 00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:26,400 Speaker 16: the exact number there, I mean, esmens vary from as 557 00:32:26,480 --> 00:32:28,880 Speaker 16: quote unquote low as twenty five to thirty five thousand, 558 00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:31,240 Speaker 16: potentially as high as God forbid eighty to one hundred thousand. 559 00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:31,920 Speaker 1: We have no idea. 560 00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:34,760 Speaker 16: But the fact that they slaughtered so many and literally 561 00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:38,160 Speaker 16: probably the single worst instance of a government turning its 562 00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:41,000 Speaker 16: weapons on its own people in the entire twenty first century. 563 00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:43,720 Speaker 16: I mean this, this hearkens back frankly to the killing 564 00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:48,240 Speaker 16: field of Cambodia under Poulpot or the Maoist struggle sessions, 565 00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:51,640 Speaker 16: and all the nineteen fifty ninety since he's turmoil in 566 00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:54,880 Speaker 16: communist China, the Soviet Goulacs there. I mean this is 567 00:32:54,880 --> 00:33:01,160 Speaker 16: twentieth century to talentarium, to talentarianism style brutal Islamist thugery. 568 00:33:01,520 --> 00:33:04,200 Speaker 16: So no one is buying this precisely, no one is 569 00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:06,560 Speaker 16: buying this there. And there's also an additional point to 570 00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:09,760 Speaker 16: make here too, which is these radical Islamic factions, whether 571 00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:12,160 Speaker 16: they are non state actors like Hamas and Hasbala or 572 00:33:12,200 --> 00:33:14,840 Speaker 16: state actors like Iran, do this over and over and 573 00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:16,680 Speaker 16: over again. I have a long enough memory where I 574 00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:19,040 Speaker 16: remember just in the first week or two of the 575 00:33:19,080 --> 00:33:22,920 Speaker 16: post October seventh, twenty three war in Gaza, there was 576 00:33:22,920 --> 00:33:26,000 Speaker 16: this whole controversy as to whether Israel actually bombed a hospital. 577 00:33:26,080 --> 00:33:28,959 Speaker 16: Joe Bien actually shamefully got in on the blood alible, 578 00:33:29,280 --> 00:33:31,959 Speaker 16: and it turns out that it was a Palestinian rocket 579 00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:33,800 Speaker 16: that didn't make it to Israel and it landed, and 580 00:33:33,840 --> 00:33:35,840 Speaker 16: it landed actually not even on the hospital and actually 581 00:33:35,880 --> 00:33:38,239 Speaker 16: landed a parking lot next to the hospital. So this 582 00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:40,600 Speaker 16: has happened before where you have a lot of Western 583 00:33:40,640 --> 00:33:42,920 Speaker 16: media that immediately gobble up and say, oh, the United 584 00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:45,480 Speaker 16: States is default or Israel or some other ally is 585 00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:48,440 Speaker 16: default there. But no more often than non situation like this, 586 00:33:48,640 --> 00:33:51,360 Speaker 16: it is it is the Islamist state or non state 587 00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:53,400 Speaker 16: actor that's responsible for the very simple reason that Pete 588 00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:54,960 Speaker 16: Hesset said they're on Air Force One, which is that 589 00:33:54,960 --> 00:33:58,120 Speaker 16: the United States is a first World's country bound by 590 00:33:58,160 --> 00:34:00,600 Speaker 16: the rule of law, and we do not target civilians. 591 00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:03,400 Speaker 16: And moreover, were pretty accurate when it comes to a weapony. 592 00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:07,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean you're right, Aroun and its proxies definitely 593 00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:11,680 Speaker 2: have form on this matter. So I know who I 594 00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:14,319 Speaker 2: trust in this situation. But we'll see what comes out 595 00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:18,520 Speaker 2: of the investigation. Now. In that same exchange aboard Air 596 00:34:18,520 --> 00:34:21,680 Speaker 2: Force One, the President was also asked to justify a 597 00:34:21,840 --> 00:34:26,239 Speaker 2: US strike on an Iranian desalination plant, and boy did 598 00:34:26,280 --> 00:34:27,600 Speaker 2: he unleash. 599 00:34:27,880 --> 00:34:31,040 Speaker 13: They are among the most evil people ever order. They 600 00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:34,920 Speaker 13: cut babies heads off, they chop women that have what 601 00:34:35,080 --> 00:34:37,200 Speaker 13: they did. Take a look at October seventh, Take a 602 00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:40,440 Speaker 13: look at what they've done over the last forty seven years. 603 00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:44,279 Speaker 13: So I know nothing about a desalinization plant, other than 604 00:34:44,280 --> 00:34:48,960 Speaker 13: to say, if they're complaining about a desalinization plant, we 605 00:34:49,080 --> 00:34:51,640 Speaker 13: complained about the fact that they should be chopping baby's 606 00:34:51,719 --> 00:34:52,200 Speaker 13: heads off. 607 00:34:52,239 --> 00:34:55,960 Speaker 2: Okay, Josh, what is with the left media and they're 608 00:34:56,040 --> 00:35:00,600 Speaker 2: fixation with defending or finding ways to minimize what this 609 00:35:00,680 --> 00:35:03,560 Speaker 2: brutal authoritarian regime is doing here. 610 00:35:05,040 --> 00:35:06,840 Speaker 16: The brutal truth, and I genuinely do not think that 611 00:35:06,880 --> 00:35:08,920 Speaker 16: this is overstaying. The matter is that there are a 612 00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:11,400 Speaker 16: lot of folks on the left who actively root for 613 00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:14,319 Speaker 16: actors like the islam Republic of Iran. Frankly, some of 614 00:35:14,320 --> 00:35:16,640 Speaker 16: this actually is explicit out in the open. For instance, 615 00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:19,040 Speaker 16: there are there are various left wing student groups like 616 00:35:19,080 --> 00:35:21,200 Speaker 16: this group, this horrific group at Columbia University of New 617 00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:26,440 Speaker 16: York City called CUAD Columbia University Apartheid divest or something 618 00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:30,720 Speaker 16: like that. There they were actively cheering on Iran's missile 619 00:35:30,719 --> 00:35:33,680 Speaker 16: and drone response after the initial bombing run between the 620 00:35:33,719 --> 00:35:36,040 Speaker 16: United States and Israel last Saturday, you had various other 621 00:35:36,239 --> 00:35:39,800 Speaker 16: students for justin palestein chapters that were that were showing 622 00:35:39,880 --> 00:35:43,880 Speaker 16: video clips of the italiatory Iran missiles and drones that 623 00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:46,440 Speaker 16: are fired at Israel, the UAE who waits lots of 624 00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:49,160 Speaker 16: other agricundries there and celebrating it. So there is a 625 00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:51,600 Speaker 16: subversive fifth column. There's a fifth column here in the 626 00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:55,560 Speaker 16: United States. And this is not just an American fill unfortunately, 627 00:35:55,600 --> 00:35:58,759 Speaker 16: because the organized political left for really as far back 628 00:35:58,760 --> 00:36:00,959 Speaker 16: as we have had this right left political devid because 629 00:36:00,960 --> 00:36:03,840 Speaker 16: our contemporary right political divid goes back roughly to the 630 00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:06,759 Speaker 16: French Revolution, That's where this nomenclature actually comes from. And 631 00:36:06,800 --> 00:36:10,080 Speaker 16: going back to the French Revolution, to the Jacobins, to Robespier, 632 00:36:10,120 --> 00:36:11,960 Speaker 16: the reign of terror there, the left has had a 633 00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:16,439 Speaker 16: fetish for political violence, for not just settling scores through 634 00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:19,560 Speaker 16: through the ballot box or or through legislation or bills there, 635 00:36:19,560 --> 00:36:21,640 Speaker 16: but they actually have a love of violence. That is 636 00:36:21,680 --> 00:36:23,480 Speaker 16: why some of the of the great tyrants in the 637 00:36:23,480 --> 00:36:27,680 Speaker 16: twentieth century, like Stalin infamously Mauzidong and China, these are 638 00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:31,880 Speaker 16: ardent at their core, Marxist Leninists, left wingers there, you know, 639 00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:35,240 Speaker 16: as the late grade David Horowitz said, inside every progressive 640 00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:38,120 Speaker 16: is a totalitarian waiting to get out. So I think 641 00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:40,840 Speaker 16: a lot of these folks look at these totalitarian regimes 642 00:36:41,040 --> 00:36:44,399 Speaker 16: like Iran, and it's not only that they're that they're 643 00:36:44,440 --> 00:36:46,400 Speaker 16: trying to downpload their atrocities. I think a lot of 644 00:36:46,440 --> 00:36:49,759 Speaker 16: them are genuinely rooting them on. That's that sounds pretty harsh, 645 00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:51,719 Speaker 16: and that's that sounds pretty callous there, but it's my 646 00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:54,279 Speaker 16: genuine read the situation there. It's very difficult, frankly, for 647 00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:56,719 Speaker 16: me to look at things other than to look at 648 00:36:56,760 --> 00:36:58,920 Speaker 16: things like the Barack Obama Nuclear Deal, for instance, and 649 00:36:59,040 --> 00:37:01,080 Speaker 16: conclude that they are trans do anything other than to 650 00:37:01,239 --> 00:37:03,200 Speaker 16: arm the world's number one state sponsor of terror. 651 00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:05,759 Speaker 2: Look, I have to agree with you. We've seen very 652 00:37:05,760 --> 00:37:08,879 Speaker 2: similar scenes on our campuses here in Australia, as I'm 653 00:37:08,880 --> 00:37:11,880 Speaker 2: sure you'd be aware, and on our streets openly people 654 00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:16,879 Speaker 2: holding flags of these terrorist leaders, including the IATOLA. So 655 00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:20,560 Speaker 2: it's hard to disagree with your assessment. I think. Unfortunately, 656 00:37:20,840 --> 00:37:23,879 Speaker 2: one consequence of what's happening in the Middle East is 657 00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:26,799 Speaker 2: obviously the volatility of the oil market now, and to 658 00:37:26,920 --> 00:37:31,560 Speaker 2: offset that, the Trump administration has turned Venezuela into a 659 00:37:31,640 --> 00:37:36,160 Speaker 2: significant oil supply. Global oil prices have soared past one 660 00:37:36,200 --> 00:37:40,160 Speaker 2: hundred US dollars a barrel amid Israeli strikes on Iranian 661 00:37:40,280 --> 00:37:45,480 Speaker 2: oil infrastructure and disruptions in the hallmus Strait. Now Josh 662 00:37:45,600 --> 00:37:48,960 Speaker 2: Venezuela has gone from being an adversary to the United 663 00:37:49,040 --> 00:37:51,120 Speaker 2: States to an ally under Trump. 664 00:37:52,680 --> 00:37:54,920 Speaker 16: Yeah, it's quite remarkable. Actually, just as past week, I 665 00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:56,960 Speaker 16: believe it's on Thursday Friday, the United State has actually 666 00:37:56,960 --> 00:38:00,520 Speaker 16: opened its diplomatic facility in Caracas, Venezuela, the first time 667 00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:03,880 Speaker 16: since twenty nineteen. So this pretty remarkable stuff. Look, the 668 00:38:03,880 --> 00:38:07,080 Speaker 16: current women leave Venezuela. Delsa Rodriguez is definitely a socialist 669 00:38:07,080 --> 00:38:10,120 Speaker 16: in the Ugo shaves Nicholas Manduro mode, but she's apparently 670 00:38:10,120 --> 00:38:11,879 Speaker 16: willing to play ball with the US when it comes 671 00:38:11,880 --> 00:38:15,680 Speaker 16: to our petroleum at oil natural gas companies going in 672 00:38:15,719 --> 00:38:17,680 Speaker 16: there to try to take advantage of the of those 673 00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:21,560 Speaker 16: resources there. It's true that oil prices are rising on 674 00:38:21,600 --> 00:38:24,160 Speaker 16: the global crew market. There's been a rise of roughly 675 00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:28,000 Speaker 16: fifty percent since the war started, and that's politically that's 676 00:38:28,040 --> 00:38:30,120 Speaker 16: not good for Republicans here in the United States when 677 00:38:30,160 --> 00:38:32,640 Speaker 16: it comes to a mid term election year. I could 678 00:38:32,680 --> 00:38:34,719 Speaker 16: be wrong with this. I have a sning suspicion that 679 00:38:34,719 --> 00:38:37,040 Speaker 16: Donald Trump has a card here up his sleeve. That 680 00:38:37,120 --> 00:38:39,880 Speaker 16: card could potentially be as simple as just tapping into 681 00:38:39,920 --> 00:38:41,680 Speaker 16: what we in the States refer to as the sec 682 00:38:41,880 --> 00:38:45,640 Speaker 16: Strategic Petroleum Reserve, which is something that we basically store 683 00:38:45,680 --> 00:38:47,840 Speaker 16: a lot of oil and natural gas essentially for situations 684 00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:51,160 Speaker 16: exactly like this, to try to contain price fluctuations there. 685 00:38:51,560 --> 00:38:54,200 Speaker 16: I am hearing rumors, and it's just rumors, and I 686 00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:56,279 Speaker 16: don't typally like to deal in rumors. I am hearing 687 00:38:56,320 --> 00:38:58,480 Speaker 16: rumors that the United States might make some sort of 688 00:38:58,480 --> 00:39:02,920 Speaker 16: strong plates potentially, and Iranian Island near the Strait of 689 00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:05,759 Speaker 16: Horne moves trying to essentially open those lines of shipping there. 690 00:39:05,800 --> 00:39:08,560 Speaker 16: I think that think, frankly that the United States Navy 691 00:39:09,040 --> 00:39:11,439 Speaker 16: is not done when it comes to letting the price 692 00:39:11,480 --> 00:39:13,760 Speaker 16: of oil get too far out of hand there, because 693 00:39:13,840 --> 00:39:17,000 Speaker 16: energy is ultimately the mother's milk of really all goods. 694 00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:17,239 Speaker 9: There. 695 00:39:17,320 --> 00:39:20,399 Speaker 16: When energy prices sore, the prices of a virtually every 696 00:39:20,440 --> 00:39:23,600 Speaker 16: really good stores soars as well. Because you rely on 697 00:39:23,880 --> 00:39:26,279 Speaker 16: shipping and planes and trucks and everything to get all 698 00:39:26,320 --> 00:39:28,400 Speaker 16: the groceries in your store and your goods and your services. 699 00:39:28,520 --> 00:39:31,480 Speaker 16: It all comes down to energy there. So I suspect 700 00:39:31,480 --> 00:39:33,239 Speaker 16: that Donald Trump is going to have a trick up 701 00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:35,319 Speaker 16: his sleeve here. It's worth knowing as well, by the way, 702 00:39:35,360 --> 00:39:37,200 Speaker 16: that even though what I said is true that oil 703 00:39:37,280 --> 00:39:39,760 Speaker 16: has spikes since the war started, it would have spiked 704 00:39:39,840 --> 00:39:43,160 Speaker 16: a lot more had Donald Trump and his administration not 705 00:39:43,280 --> 00:39:47,080 Speaker 16: engage in prolific offshore and onshore or oil and natural 706 00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:49,000 Speaker 16: gas drilling just over the course of the past year 707 00:39:49,080 --> 00:39:51,480 Speaker 16: after the buying Harris regime shut down a lat of 708 00:39:51,480 --> 00:39:53,960 Speaker 16: those wells there. So it's not ideal right now. Again, 709 00:39:54,000 --> 00:39:55,879 Speaker 16: I think it's going to get better, but it would 710 00:39:55,880 --> 00:39:57,799 Speaker 16: have been a lot worse. We're not for much more 711 00:39:57,800 --> 00:39:59,080 Speaker 16: of this drilling that they've done already. 712 00:39:59,280 --> 00:40:01,759 Speaker 2: Yeah, before I have to let you go, let's turn 713 00:40:01,800 --> 00:40:04,520 Speaker 2: our attention quickly to New York because a pair of 714 00:40:04,640 --> 00:40:09,000 Speaker 2: ISIS trained extremists have been charged with allegedly hurling an 715 00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:13,520 Speaker 2: improvised explosive device and the mayor's official residence during a protest, 716 00:40:13,560 --> 00:40:17,400 Speaker 2: which police say would have caused serious death, thought or 717 00:40:17,480 --> 00:40:22,040 Speaker 2: injury had detonated. Law enforcement sources close to the case 718 00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:25,040 Speaker 2: have told The New York Post the two suspects had 719 00:40:25,040 --> 00:40:29,160 Speaker 2: allegedly self radicalized in recent years, having traveled to Turkey 720 00:40:29,200 --> 00:40:33,800 Speaker 2: and other terror training hotspots, but his reaction to the incident, 721 00:40:34,040 --> 00:40:37,520 Speaker 2: Mayor Zorah and mum Dani decided not to mention them 722 00:40:37,600 --> 00:40:42,279 Speaker 2: at all, instead releasing a statement blaming Josh white supremacy. 723 00:40:42,680 --> 00:40:47,799 Speaker 2: He wrote, white supremacist Jake Lang organized a protest outside 724 00:40:47,880 --> 00:40:52,480 Speaker 2: Gracie Mansion rooted in bigotry and racism. Such hate has 725 00:40:52,520 --> 00:40:55,280 Speaker 2: no place in New York City. It is an affront 726 00:40:55,320 --> 00:40:58,520 Speaker 2: to our city's values and the unity that defines who 727 00:40:58,520 --> 00:41:02,560 Speaker 2: we are. Josh, how the heck did he manage to 728 00:41:02,600 --> 00:41:06,640 Speaker 2: turn the threat of radical Islam into an attack on 729 00:41:06,760 --> 00:41:08,440 Speaker 2: white supremacy. 730 00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:11,640 Speaker 16: Uh, there's a very simple answer to that question, which 731 00:41:11,640 --> 00:41:15,000 Speaker 16: is or Mamdani is sympathetic to radical Islam. That that 732 00:41:15,200 --> 00:41:17,960 Speaker 16: is the That is the unequivocal answer to your to 733 00:41:18,280 --> 00:41:20,839 Speaker 16: your very astute question. Sir Ramdani is a man who 734 00:41:20,880 --> 00:41:24,160 Speaker 16: founded his Students Were justin Palestine chapter back when he 735 00:41:24,200 --> 00:41:26,959 Speaker 16: was in voting college in Maine years ago. S jp 736 00:41:27,200 --> 00:41:29,560 Speaker 16: AS is frequently known as essentially a Muslim Brotherhood of 737 00:41:29,600 --> 00:41:33,680 Speaker 16: Hamas front group openly orchestrating openly in citing for for 738 00:41:33,840 --> 00:41:39,920 Speaker 16: murderous jihad and anti Western civilization. Subjugation on America's university campuses. 739 00:41:40,239 --> 00:41:43,200 Speaker 16: This is a man who on the first day of Ramadan, 740 00:41:43,480 --> 00:41:44,839 Speaker 16: just over the past couple of weeks and the very 741 00:41:44,840 --> 00:41:48,040 Speaker 16: first day, spoke at a an infamous mosque in New 742 00:41:48,160 --> 00:41:50,600 Speaker 16: York City that that that has long been on the 743 00:41:50,680 --> 00:41:53,799 Speaker 16: FBI's RDAR for having close ties to you guessed, the 744 00:41:53,840 --> 00:41:56,080 Speaker 16: Iranian regime itself. In fact, the e Mom of that 745 00:41:56,200 --> 00:41:59,640 Speaker 16: very mosque. After Memdannie said his remarks and exited stage 746 00:41:59,640 --> 00:42:01,880 Speaker 16: will Aft, the e Mom then came to the lectern 747 00:42:01,920 --> 00:42:04,320 Speaker 16: and said into the microphone that he that he hopes 748 00:42:04,360 --> 00:42:07,799 Speaker 16: that the sword will ultimately be the final fate of 749 00:42:07,880 --> 00:42:10,879 Speaker 16: all infidels, essentially wishing death for infidels. Man Donnie spoke 750 00:42:10,880 --> 00:42:12,840 Speaker 16: of that monster's man's prior to the EMM, saying that 751 00:42:12,840 --> 00:42:14,919 Speaker 16: they're so this is the guy who who not only 752 00:42:14,920 --> 00:42:18,200 Speaker 16: does not have a problem with radical Islamic jihad, he 753 00:42:18,280 --> 00:42:20,799 Speaker 16: has I'm not saying he's personally been involved. He's not 754 00:42:20,840 --> 00:42:22,840 Speaker 16: strapping on suicide vest or anything there. But this is 755 00:42:22,880 --> 00:42:25,719 Speaker 16: a man who has been a cheerleader. Most recently, it 756 00:42:25,800 --> 00:42:27,880 Speaker 16: just came out this past week that his wife was 757 00:42:28,000 --> 00:42:30,800 Speaker 16: very active, shall we say, on Instagram and social media 758 00:42:30,840 --> 00:42:34,879 Speaker 16: and liking a lot of posts, not just downplaying October seven, 759 00:42:34,920 --> 00:42:38,280 Speaker 16: twenty twenty three, celebrating you, saying that the wanton murder 760 00:42:38,280 --> 00:42:40,760 Speaker 16: of twelve hundred people, the two hundred and fifty folks 761 00:42:40,760 --> 00:42:43,040 Speaker 16: that were three injured, whatever was that they were absolutely 762 00:42:43,080 --> 00:42:45,840 Speaker 16: tragically murdered of the Nova Music Festival. All the mass rapes, 763 00:42:45,880 --> 00:42:48,879 Speaker 16: the pillages, the kidnappings there, the execution of Holocaust virus 764 00:42:48,880 --> 00:42:51,279 Speaker 16: and butchering and babies there she was celebrating. And this 765 00:42:51,320 --> 00:42:54,759 Speaker 16: is six six sick, demented stuff there. Frankly, I look 766 00:42:54,760 --> 00:42:56,480 Speaker 16: at this, and as someone who was from the New 767 00:42:56,560 --> 00:42:59,960 Speaker 16: York area originally myself, I sometimes just throw my hands 768 00:43:00,160 --> 00:43:02,040 Speaker 16: and I say, how did New York get here? 769 00:43:02,120 --> 00:43:03,839 Speaker 1: Really? How did it actually get here? 770 00:43:03,880 --> 00:43:06,520 Speaker 16: It wasn't that long ago that New Yorkers were debating 771 00:43:06,560 --> 00:43:09,520 Speaker 16: the infamous ground zero mask and they defeated the ground 772 00:43:09,600 --> 00:43:11,640 Speaker 16: Zero mask. This is an attempt to build a mosque 773 00:43:11,680 --> 00:43:14,120 Speaker 16: near ground zero at the sight of the Alkaita had 774 00:43:14,120 --> 00:43:16,000 Speaker 16: that brought down twin towers there. We've gone from this 775 00:43:16,080 --> 00:43:18,640 Speaker 16: to that there, and it's ultimately just truly, truly, truly 776 00:43:18,680 --> 00:43:20,080 Speaker 16: tragic stuff for the city of New York. 777 00:43:20,239 --> 00:43:23,799 Speaker 2: It is look, I'm concerned for people there, but they 778 00:43:23,840 --> 00:43:26,760 Speaker 2: have voted him in, so we'll see what happens.

Netflix has officially cut ties with 786 00:43:59,120 --> 00:44:04,080 Speaker 2: Meghan Markles polarizing lifestyle brand as ever, in a fresh 787 00:44:04,120 --> 00:44:08,400 Speaker 2: blow to the Duchess's ambitions for the company, Kinsey, the 788 00:44:08,400 --> 00:44:12,680 Speaker 2: streaming service has issued a statement as artificially soothing as 789 00:44:12,840 --> 00:44:16,000 Speaker 2: Michael's voice on her two season show With Love Megan. 790 00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:18,239 Speaker 2: But there's no other way to spin it, is there. 791 00:44:18,320 --> 00:44:21,520 Speaker 2: She and Harry have been a massive disappointment for Netflix. 792 00:44:22,480 --> 00:44:22,640 Speaker 1: Yeah. 793 00:44:22,680 --> 00:44:24,560 Speaker 18: I feel like we had this on our twenty twenty 794 00:44:24,640 --> 00:44:28,120 Speaker 18: six bingo card, didn't we? Sources told Page six The 795 00:44:28,160 --> 00:44:30,880 Speaker 18: return on investment simply wasn't there. The show was a 796 00:44:30,920 --> 00:44:34,320 Speaker 18: significant disappointment to the streamer, and with the product line 797 00:44:34,320 --> 00:44:38,040 Speaker 18: being an extension of With Love Megan. It makes absolutely 798 00:44:38,160 --> 00:44:42,000 Speaker 18: no sense to maintain this working relationship. I also reported 799 00:44:42,040 --> 00:44:45,319 Speaker 18: on my podcast weeks ago that Netflix was eager to 800 00:44:45,440 --> 00:44:48,960 Speaker 18: get rid of excess as ever inventory that was sitting 801 00:44:48,960 --> 00:44:52,400 Speaker 18: around their offices. This was one of many omens that 802 00:44:52,560 --> 00:44:54,239 Speaker 18: the relationship was wrapping up. 803 00:44:55,040 --> 00:44:58,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, not great for Megan, but it seems like one 804 00:44:58,800 --> 00:45:03,920 Speaker 2: failure after another for the former royal couple Kinsey. It's 805 00:45:03,960 --> 00:45:07,640 Speaker 2: also been revealed that Harry and Meghan planned to rebound 806 00:45:07,719 --> 00:45:11,080 Speaker 2: from this latest flop with another tour of Australia. A 807 00:45:11,120 --> 00:45:14,480 Speaker 2: spokesperson for the couple telling news dot com Dot a 808 00:45:14,680 --> 00:45:18,120 Speaker 2: U the couple will be visiting in mid April. Kinsey. 809 00:45:18,160 --> 00:45:21,280 Speaker 2: Their last tour here was back in twenty eighteen, eighteen 810 00:45:21,320 --> 00:45:25,239 Speaker 2: months before they quit their royal duties and relocated to 811 00:45:25,360 --> 00:45:29,000 Speaker 2: the US. What sort of reception would you expect them 812 00:45:29,000 --> 00:45:30,040 Speaker 2: to get this time? 813 00:45:31,600 --> 00:45:34,480 Speaker 18: Hasn't Australia suffered enough? What have you done to deserve this? 814 00:45:34,960 --> 00:45:38,520 Speaker 18: I mean the couple's I think, thoughts and prayers. Gobble's 815 00:45:38,560 --> 00:45:41,799 Speaker 18: popularity in Australia in twenty eighteen was the catalyst for 816 00:45:41,840 --> 00:45:44,239 Speaker 18: Harry and Meghan making demands as working members of the 817 00:45:44,320 --> 00:45:44,960 Speaker 18: royal family. 818 00:45:45,000 --> 00:45:46,000 Speaker 6: I don't know if you know that. 819 00:45:46,239 --> 00:45:49,080 Speaker 18: In trying to step out of William and Catherine's shadow, 820 00:45:49,400 --> 00:45:52,440 Speaker 18: Meghan started comparing herself to Princess Diana and tried to 821 00:45:52,560 --> 00:45:55,600 Speaker 18: use this trip as leverage with the late Queen. As 822 00:45:55,640 --> 00:45:58,440 Speaker 18: of late twenty twenty five, Harry and Meghan's popularity in 823 00:45:58,440 --> 00:46:02,320 Speaker 18: Australia is at an all time low, following a consistent 824 00:46:02,400 --> 00:46:05,480 Speaker 18: downward trend over the years. Pulling indicates they're among the 825 00:46:05,560 --> 00:46:09,200 Speaker 18: least popular members of the royal family. I would say 826 00:46:09,200 --> 00:46:13,480 Speaker 18: reception will be a combination of morbid curiosity with the 827 00:46:13,560 --> 00:46:14,959 Speaker 18: side of why are they here? 828 00:46:15,920 --> 00:46:20,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, technically speaking, it's still our royal family here, 829 00:46:20,200 --> 00:46:22,440 Speaker 2: but you're right, the mood has changed. I covered that 830 00:46:22,520 --> 00:46:25,560 Speaker 2: royal visit back in twenty eighteen. I believe she was pregnant, 831 00:46:25,640 --> 00:46:28,520 Speaker 2: but it wasn't widely and publicly known at the time, 832 00:46:28,560 --> 00:46:31,520 Speaker 2: and of course that prompted, as you say, all the 833 00:46:32,040 --> 00:46:35,600 Speaker 2: rumors later, well, the stuff that she was pushing about 834 00:46:35,680 --> 00:46:38,880 Speaker 2: someone in the royal family speculating about the skin color 835 00:46:39,320 --> 00:46:42,680 Speaker 2: of her baby. I expect there'll be a very different 836 00:46:42,800 --> 00:46:46,600 Speaker 2: level of public access to them this time. Would they 837 00:46:46,600 --> 00:46:51,719 Speaker 2: be likely to be doing public events with meats and 838 00:46:51,800 --> 00:46:53,960 Speaker 2: greets of members of the public. Do you think or 839 00:46:54,000 --> 00:46:56,000 Speaker 2: willis will be very tightly controlled? 840 00:46:57,160 --> 00:46:58,560 Speaker 18: It will be totally controlled. 841 00:46:59,040 --> 00:46:59,640 Speaker 6: I've seen. 842 00:46:59,760 --> 00:47:03,600 Speaker 18: What I thought was interesting was the announcement included private events. 843 00:47:03,680 --> 00:47:06,719 Speaker 18: Private events. Wouldn't we just assume that they would want 844 00:47:06,719 --> 00:47:11,919 Speaker 18: privacy throughout the excursion. But don't forget or don't think 845 00:47:11,920 --> 00:47:14,560 Speaker 18: for one second they won't try to make it look 846 00:47:14,680 --> 00:47:19,040 Speaker 18: like an official royal engagement. They will want certain photo 847 00:47:19,120 --> 00:47:22,239 Speaker 18: opportunities where there's an audience clamoring for them, so that 848 00:47:22,280 --> 00:47:25,040 Speaker 18: they can send those pictures to People magazine. But for 849 00:47:25,080 --> 00:47:26,880 Speaker 18: the most part, I do think that it will be 850 00:47:26,920 --> 00:47:31,840 Speaker 18: mostly private events and commercial ventures that they're pursuing more 851 00:47:31,920 --> 00:47:33,720 Speaker 18: so than charity opportunities. 852 00:47:34,200 --> 00:47:36,520 Speaker 2: Well, keep those thoughts in praise coming. I think we're 853 00:47:36,520 --> 00:47:39,000 Speaker 2: going to need it to be here. No doubt we'll 854 00:47:39,000 --> 00:47:41,439 Speaker 2: be speaking a bit more about this soon. But let's 855 00:47:41,480 --> 00:47:44,560 Speaker 2: talk about another royal Princess Eugenie. Now, she's the daughter 856 00:47:44,600 --> 00:47:48,839 Speaker 2: of course of disgrace former Prince Andrew. She stepped down 857 00:47:48,880 --> 00:47:52,640 Speaker 2: as patron of an anti slavery charity, I mean the 858 00:47:52,680 --> 00:47:57,080 Speaker 2: continuing fallout from her father's relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. Kinzie, 859 00:47:57,480 --> 00:48:00,080 Speaker 2: She's served in that role for seven years now, so 860 00:48:00,120 --> 00:48:03,600 Speaker 2: it has to be tied to this scandal, doesn't. 861 00:48:03,280 --> 00:48:07,680 Speaker 18: It Absolutely, Because one of the causes this charity champion 862 00:48:07,840 --> 00:48:11,359 Speaker 18: against was sex trafficking. And it is clear that not 863 00:48:11,480 --> 00:48:15,840 Speaker 18: just Andrew Mountbatten Windsor engaged with Jeffrey Epstein post incarceration 864 00:48:16,239 --> 00:48:20,320 Speaker 18: for being a sexual predator, but Beatrice and Eugenie voluntarily 865 00:48:20,320 --> 00:48:23,960 Speaker 18: did as well. According to that DOJ dump in the 866 00:48:24,000 --> 00:48:28,359 Speaker 18: Epstein files, the alleged sex trafficker paid for the York 867 00:48:28,480 --> 00:48:31,480 Speaker 18: daughters and their mother to visit him after he was 868 00:48:31,560 --> 00:48:34,399 Speaker 18: released from jail. That's not a great look for any 869 00:48:34,520 --> 00:48:37,480 Speaker 18: charity or royal for that matter. 870 00:48:37,880 --> 00:48:41,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, and as you say, one of the its focuses 871 00:48:41,520 --> 00:48:45,719 Speaker 2: on this issue in particular, you know, sex trafficking as 872 00:48:45,760 --> 00:48:48,760 Speaker 2: a part of its remit. Let's quickly talk about actor 873 00:48:48,800 --> 00:48:53,879 Speaker 2: Timothy Chalomay. He's been lambasted online after claiming during an 874 00:48:53,880 --> 00:48:57,680 Speaker 2: interview that no one cares about ballet or opera. Here 875 00:48:57,800 --> 00:49:00,480 Speaker 2: was that exchange, and I don't want to be working 876 00:49:00,560 --> 00:49:03,759 Speaker 2: in ballet or opera or you know things where it's like, hey, 877 00:49:03,840 --> 00:49:06,640 Speaker 2: keep this thing alive, even though no one cares about this. 878 00:49:07,320 --> 00:49:09,439 Speaker 6: All respect to the ballet and opera people out there. 879 00:49:10,480 --> 00:49:12,400 Speaker 6: I just lost fourteen cents in viewership. 880 00:49:12,680 --> 00:49:16,080 Speaker 2: But I just took shots for no reason. 881 00:49:17,480 --> 00:49:19,080 Speaker 1: That's no shot to hear what you say? 882 00:49:19,239 --> 00:49:26,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, so, Kinsey, he has been absolutely dragged by the 883 00:49:26,560 --> 00:49:30,120 Speaker 2: opera and ballet woods. There's plenty of gold memes out there, 884 00:49:30,160 --> 00:49:33,600 Speaker 2: and also some canny groups offering special discounts of people 885 00:49:33,719 --> 00:49:35,200 Speaker 2: use the code Chela may. 886 00:49:36,920 --> 00:49:38,560 Speaker 6: Is this the Kardashian curse? 887 00:49:38,920 --> 00:49:39,080 Speaker 1: You know? 888 00:49:39,160 --> 00:49:41,840 Speaker 18: Like I want to love him despite his very bizarre 889 00:49:41,920 --> 00:49:43,920 Speaker 18: relationship with Kylie Jenner. I want to give him the 890 00:49:43,960 --> 00:49:46,520 Speaker 18: benefit of the doubt. But he went to art school, 891 00:49:46,680 --> 00:49:49,279 Speaker 18: you know, I think he knows better. He continues to 892 00:49:49,280 --> 00:49:51,080 Speaker 18: put his foot in his mouth when he does any 893 00:49:51,120 --> 00:49:54,399 Speaker 18: interview whatsoever. I saw someone joke that, you know, he's 894 00:49:54,400 --> 00:49:57,280 Speaker 18: making this statement while promoting a movie about ping pong, 895 00:49:57,440 --> 00:50:00,760 Speaker 18: talk about a topic no one cares about me. Hire 896 00:50:00,840 --> 00:50:03,520 Speaker 18: a media trainer or do less talking. The more I 897 00:50:03,560 --> 00:50:06,160 Speaker 18: know about him, the less I love him. And he 898 00:50:06,200 --> 00:50:09,120 Speaker 18: was so cute and little women don't ruin this for me, Timmy. 899 00:50:09,080 --> 00:50:11,319 Speaker 2: Yeah, just keep your mouth closed. I think that'd be 900 00:50:11,360 --> 00:50:15,239 Speaker 2: safest for everyone. Tathy Kinsey Schofield, thank you so much 901 00:50:15,280 --> 00:50:17,759 Speaker 2: for your time as always, that's it for me. OP. 902 00:50:17,840 --> 00:50:19,080 Speaker 2: Next is Newsnoch
