00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:29,600
Speaker 1: We're going to go over the War Powers Act. By

Speaker 1: the former Shavran is a leader of what might be

12
00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:43,559
Speaker 1: a temporary new government. Iran has attacked and killed hundreds

13
00:00:43,560 --> 00:00:45,960
Speaker 1: of Americans in the last several decades. We're going to

14
00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:49,480
Speaker 1: go over some of these attacks. A mask shooter wearing

Speaker 1: after the start of Operation Epic Fury. Is there a

00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:11,720
Speaker 1: terrorist nexus? President Trump awards the Presidential Medal of Freedom

20
00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:14,319
Speaker 1: to heroic warriors. We're gonna talk about at least one

21
00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:18,640
Speaker 1: of them. But first before I play President Trump's eight

22
00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:25,399
Speaker 1: minute video he posted on truth Social, I'm gonna give

23
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:29,480
Speaker 1: you the craziest Trump Derangement Syndrome story I have ever witnessed.

24
00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:32,040
Speaker 1: And if you have something that you think can match

25
00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:33,479
Speaker 1: the one I want about ready to tell you, give

26
00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:35,640
Speaker 1: me a call Triple eight nine seven one seven two

27
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:38,400
Speaker 1: four three, Triple eight ninety seven one seven two forty

28
00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:42,120
Speaker 1: three if you have a crazier TDS story than this one.

29
00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:45,560
Speaker 1: So Nina and I are talking to our neighbors. This

30
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:50,880
Speaker 1: is on Sunday, and my neighbor introduces me to a

31
00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:53,960
Speaker 1: friend of his who lives in Arizona. She happened to

32
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:57,960
Speaker 1: be a Latina for the optics, maybe forty years old.

33
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:02,600
Speaker 1: And I said, oh, Arizona, what do you think happened

34
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:08,440
Speaker 1: to Nancy Guthrie? And she said, I think Trump had

35
00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:13,680
Speaker 1: something to do with her disappearance. I assumed she was joking.

36
00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:16,840
Speaker 1: I said, you're kidding, right, She said no, I'm not.

37
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:21,200
Speaker 1: I said, what makes you think Trump had something to

38
00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:23,959
Speaker 1: do with it? Well, when he said we're going to

39
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:27,320
Speaker 1: use all of our possible resources to find out what

40
00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:29,800
Speaker 1: happened to her, That's when I knew Trump had something

41
00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,040
Speaker 1: to do with her disappearance, honestly.

42
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:33,480
Speaker 2: You know.

43
00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:36,040
Speaker 1: And so Nina and I just look at each other,

44
00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:40,760
Speaker 1: and my neighbor, who knows my politics, appeared embarrassed, and

45
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:43,360
Speaker 1: he said, look, I'm switching to Switzerland. I'm staying out of this,

46
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:47,040
Speaker 1: and we change this topic. Trump had something to do

47
00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:53,560
Speaker 1: with the disappearance of Nancy Gunthrie. Are you serious? I mean,

48
00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:56,040
Speaker 1: there really is something called Trump arrangement syndrome. And that's

49
00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:59,920
Speaker 1: probably about as sick an example as I've ever seen.

50
00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:03,200
Speaker 1: If you have something that can match that, are top that,

51
00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:05,200
Speaker 1: please give me a call. Triple eight ninety seven one

52
00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:08,720
Speaker 1: seven two four three, Triple eight ninety seven one seven

53
00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:18,280
Speaker 1: two four to three. Here's President Trump announcing Operation Epic

54
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:20,280
Speaker 1: Fury number twenty five.

55
00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:26,240
Speaker 3: A short time ago, the United States military began major

56
00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:32,400
Speaker 3: combat operations in Iran. Our objective is to defend the

57
00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:38,360
Speaker 3: American people by eliminating eminent threats from the Iranian regime,

58
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:40,240
Speaker 3: a vicious.

59
00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:43,960
Speaker 2: Group of very hard, terrible people.

60
00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:49,560
Speaker 3: It's menacing activities directly in danger the United States, our troops,

61
00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:54,360
Speaker 3: our bases overseas, and our allies throughout the world. For

62
00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:58,000
Speaker 3: forty seven years, the Iranian regime has chanted death to

63
00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:03,320
Speaker 3: America and waged an unending campaign of bloodshed and mass

64
00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:07,560
Speaker 3: murder targeting the United States, are troops and the innocent

65
00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:09,560
Speaker 3: people in many, many countries.

66
00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:12,280
Speaker 2: Among the regime's.

67
00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:15,280
Speaker 3: Very first acts was to back a violent takeover of

68
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:20,280
Speaker 3: the US Embassy in Tehran, holding dozens of American hostages

69
00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:24,640
Speaker 3: for four hundred and forty four days. In nineteen eighty three,

70
00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:29,280
Speaker 3: Irans proxies carried out the Marine Barracks bombing in Beirut

71
00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:32,840
Speaker 3: that killed two hundred and forty one American military personnel.

72
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:37,359
Speaker 3: In two thousand, they knew and were probably involved with

73
00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:43,680
Speaker 3: the attack on the USS coal many died. Iranian forces

74
00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:47,320
Speaker 3: killed and maimed hundreds of American service members in Iraq.

75
00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:51,719
Speaker 3: The regime's proxies have continued to launch countless attacks against

76
00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:55,800
Speaker 3: American forces stationed in the Middle East in recent years,

77
00:04:56,360 --> 00:05:00,320
Speaker 3: as well as US naval and commercial vessels in internetational

78
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:05,280
Speaker 3: shipping lands. It's been mass terra and We're not going

79
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:08,719
Speaker 3: to put up with it any longer. From Lebanon to

80
00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:13,560
Speaker 3: Yemen and Syria to Iraq, the regime has armed, trained,

81
00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:18,080
Speaker 3: and funded terrorist militias that have soaked the earth with

82
00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:23,640
Speaker 3: blood and guts, and it was Iran's proxy Hamas that

83
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:29,520
Speaker 3: launched the monstrous October seventh attacks on Israel, slaughtering more

84
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:33,560
Speaker 3: than one thousand innocent people, including forty six Americans, while

85
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:39,200
Speaker 3: taking twelve of our citizens hostage. It was brutal, something

86
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:43,440
Speaker 3: like the world has never seen before. Iran is the

87
00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:47,880
Speaker 3: world's number one state sponsor of terra and just recently

88
00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:51,159
Speaker 3: killed tens of thousands of its own citizens on the

89
00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:54,479
Speaker 3: street as they protested. It has always been the policy

90
00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:59,640
Speaker 3: of the United States, in particular my administration, that this

91
00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:04,000
Speaker 3: terror arrist regime can never have a nuclear weapon. I'll

92
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:08,279
Speaker 3: say it again, they can never have a nuclear weapon.

93
00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:13,960
Speaker 3: That is why in Operation Midnight Hammer last June, we

94
00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:18,120
Speaker 3: obliterated the regime's nuclear program at Fordeaux.

95
00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:20,520
Speaker 2: Natanse and Isfahan.

96
00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:25,240
Speaker 3: After that attack, we warned them never to resume their

97
00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:30,880
Speaker 3: malicious pursuit of nuclear weapons, and we sought repeatedly to

98
00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:34,840
Speaker 3: make a deal. We tried. They wanted to do it,

99
00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:37,479
Speaker 3: They didn't want to do it again. They wanted to

100
00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:39,599
Speaker 3: do it, They didn't want to do it. They didn't

101
00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:43,640
Speaker 3: know what was happening. They just wanted to practice evil.

102
00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:48,520
Speaker 3: But Iran refused, just as it has for decades and decades.

103
00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:55,000
Speaker 3: They rejected every opportunity to renounce their nuclear ambitions, and

104
00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:59,680
Speaker 3: we can't take it anymore. Instead, they attempted to rebuild

105
00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:05,159
Speaker 3: their nuclear program and to continue developing long rage missiles

106
00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:09,680
Speaker 3: that can now threaten our very good friends and allies

107
00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:14,040
Speaker 3: in Europe. Are troops stationed overseas and could soon reach

108
00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:19,960
Speaker 3: the American homeland. Just imagine how emboldened this regime would

109
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:23,480
Speaker 3: be if they ever had and actually were armed with

110
00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:28,680
Speaker 3: nuclear weapons as a means to deliver their message. For

111
00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:32,920
Speaker 3: these reasons, the United States military has undertaking a massive

112
00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:38,520
Speaker 3: and ongoing operation to prevent this very wicked radical dictatorship

113
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:44,320
Speaker 3: from threatening America and our core national security interests. We

114
00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:48,080
Speaker 3: are going to destroy their missiles and raise their missile

115
00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:53,640
Speaker 3: industry to the ground. It will be totally again obliterated.

116
00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:57,280
Speaker 3: We're going to annihilate their navy. We are going to

117
00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:02,360
Speaker 3: ensure that the region's terrorist proxy can no longer destabilize

118
00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:05,480
Speaker 3: the region or the world and attack our forces, and

119
00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:10,680
Speaker 3: no longer use their IEDs or roadside bombs as they

120
00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:15,360
Speaker 3: are sometimes called to so gravely wound and kill thousands

121
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:20,080
Speaker 3: and thousands of people, including many Americans, and we will

122
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:24,960
Speaker 3: ensure that Randa is not obtained a nuclear weapon. It's

123
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:30,080
Speaker 3: a very simple message. They will never have a nuclear weapon.

124
00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:34,480
Speaker 3: This regime will soon learn that no one should challenge

125
00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:37,960
Speaker 3: the strength and might of the United States Armed Forces.

126
00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:42,920
Speaker 3: I built and rebuilt our military in my first administration,

127
00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:46,760
Speaker 3: and there is no military on Earth even close to

128
00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:52,600
Speaker 3: its power, strength or sophistication. My administration has taken every

129
00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:56,840
Speaker 3: possible step to minimize the risks to US personnel in

130
00:08:56,880 --> 00:09:00,160
Speaker 3: the region. Even so, and I do not make make

131
00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:05,880
Speaker 3: this statement lightly, the Iranian regime seeks to kill. The

132
00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:09,240
Speaker 3: lives of courageous American heroes may be lost, and we

133
00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:14,240
Speaker 3: may have casualties that often happens in war. But we're

134
00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:17,760
Speaker 3: doing this not for now. We're doing this for the future,

135
00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:21,839
Speaker 3: and it is a noble mission. We pray for every

136
00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:25,640
Speaker 3: service member as they selflessly risk their lives to ensure

137
00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:29,520
Speaker 3: that Americans and our children will never be threatened by

138
00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:33,480
Speaker 3: a nuclear armed Iran. We ask God to protect all

139
00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:36,880
Speaker 3: of our heroes in harm's way, and we trust that

140
00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:40,320
Speaker 3: with his help, the men and women of the Armed

141
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:42,240
Speaker 3: Forces will prevail.

142
00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:45,840
Speaker 2: We have the greatest in the world and they will prevail.

143
00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:50,959
Speaker 3: To the members of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard, the armed forces,

144
00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:54,600
Speaker 3: and all of the police, I say tonight that you

145
00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:59,080
Speaker 3: must lay down your weapons and have complete immunity, or

146
00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:04,120
Speaker 3: in the alternative, to face certain death. So lay down

147
00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:08,280
Speaker 3: your arms. You will be treated fairly with total immunity,

148
00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:13,559
Speaker 3: or you will face certain death. Finally, to the great

149
00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:17,120
Speaker 3: proud people of Iran, I say tonight that the hour

150
00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:21,080
Speaker 3: of your freedom is at hand. Stay sheltered, don't leave

151
00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:25,640
Speaker 3: your home. It's very dangerous outside. Bombs will be dropping everywhere.

152
00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:29,000
Speaker 3: When we are finished take over your government, it will

153
00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:30,560
Speaker 3: be yours to take.

154
00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:35,520
Speaker 1: We come back. Trump gave an update Triple eight nine

155
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:39,920
Speaker 1: seventy one Sage, the Supreme Leader has been killed, as

156
00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:46,320
Speaker 1: have at least forty eight other Iranian leaders. Parents. The

157
00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:49,760
Speaker 1: biggest question in education today is how artificial intelligence is

158
00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:53,360
Speaker 1: shaping the way your student learns. Artificial intelligence is changing

159
00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:56,640
Speaker 1: education faster than most schools are willing to admit, and

160
00:10:56,679 --> 00:11:00,319
Speaker 1: many families are rightly concerned. At Patrick Henry co, the

161
00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:03,720
Speaker 1: goal isn't to outsource thinking to machines. It's to train

162
00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:08,079
Speaker 1: students to think for themselves. PhD emphasizes a Christian liberal

163
00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:12,800
Speaker 1: arts education that develops reasoning, writing, speaking, and discernment skills

164
00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:17,480
Speaker 1: no algorithm can replace. Students learn to engage technology wisely,

165
00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:21,760
Speaker 1: understanding its capabilities but also its danger and limitations, rather

166
00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:25,280
Speaker 1: than becoming dependent on it. In a world increasingly shaped

167
00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:29,480
Speaker 1: by AI, Patrick Henry College prepares students to lead with wisdom, conviction,

168
00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:31,920
Speaker 1: and moral clarity. If you want a college that prepares

169
00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:34,520
Speaker 1: your child to lead in an AI driven world without

170
00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:36,800

174
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:54,520
Speaker 3: many years you have asked for America's help, but you

175
00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:57,839
Speaker 3: never got it. No president was willing to do what

176
00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:01,000
Speaker 3: I am willing to do tonight. Now you have a

177
00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:04,480
Speaker 3: president who is giving you what you want. So let's

178

Speaker 3: see how you respond. America is backing you with overwhelming

179
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:13,040
Speaker 3: strength and devastating force. Now is the time to seize

180
00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:16,840
Speaker 3: control of your destiny and to unleash the prosperous and

181
00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:20,240
Speaker 3: glorious future that is close within your reach.

182
00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:24,360
Speaker 2: This is the moment for action. Do not let it pass.

Speaker 1: We are sale on NewsChannel. The latest is now. There

189
00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:51,360
Speaker 1: are six US service members have been killed in Operation

190
00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:56,120
Speaker 1: Epic Fury, and Syncom issued a statement quote two days ago,

191
00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:59,120
Speaker 1: the Iranian regime had eleven ships in the Gulf of Oman.

192
00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:05,400
Speaker 1: Today they have zero. End of quote. The President then

193
00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:11,000
Speaker 1: gave an update number twenty nine.

194
00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:16,679
Speaker 3: Over the past thirty six hours, the United States and

195
00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:22,200
Speaker 3: its partners have launched Operation Epic Fury, one of the largest,

196
00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:28,440
Speaker 3: most complex, most overwhelming military offensives the world has ever seen.

197
00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:30,000
Speaker 2: Nobody's seen anything like it.

198
00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:36,560
Speaker 3: We have hit hundreds of targets in Iran, including Revolutionary

199
00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:40,120
Speaker 3: Guard facilities, Iranian air defense systems.

200
00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:41,720
Speaker 2: Just now was the.

201
00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:46,160
Speaker 3: Announced that we knocked out nine ships plus their naval building,

202
00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:53,320
Speaker 3: all in a matter of literally minutes. Iran's formerly supreme leader,

203
00:13:54,440 --> 00:14:01,199
Speaker 3: Ayatola Hamene is dead. This wretched and vile man had

204
00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:06,040
Speaker 3: the blood of hundreds and even thousands of Americans on

205
00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:10,479
Speaker 3: his hands, and was responsible for the slaughter of countless

206
00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:14,560
Speaker 3: thousands of innocent people all across many countries.

207
00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:18,280
Speaker 2: Last night, all over Iran, the.

208
00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:21,640
Speaker 3: Voices of the Iranian people could be heard cheering and

209
00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:27,360
Speaker 3: celebrating in the streets when his death was announced. The

210
00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:31,760
Speaker 3: entire military command is gone as well, and many of

211
00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:36,800
Speaker 3: them want to surrender into saving their lives. They want immunity.

212
00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:43,200
Speaker 3: They're calling by the thousands. Combat operations continue at this

213
00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:47,240
Speaker 3: time in full force, and they will continue until all

214
00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:48,880
Speaker 3: of our objectives are achieved.

215
00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:51,680
Speaker 2: We have very strong objectives.

216
00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:54,640
Speaker 3: They could have done something two weeks ago, but they

217
00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:59,240
Speaker 3: just couldn't get there. Earlier today, sent Kam shared the

218
00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:03,280
Speaker 3: news that three US military service members have been killed

219
00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:08,120
Speaker 3: in action. As one nation, we grieve for the true

220
00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:13,000
Speaker 3: American patriots who have made the ultimate sacrifice for our nation,

221
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:16,800
Speaker 3: even as we continue the righteous mission.

222
00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:18,720
Speaker 2: For which they gave their lives.

223
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:22,640
Speaker 3: We pray for the full recovery of the wounded and

224
00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:27,080
Speaker 3: send our immense love and eternal gratitude to the families

225
00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:31,800
Speaker 3: of the fallen, and sadly, there will likely be more

226
00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:36,720
Speaker 3: before it ends. That's the way it is likely be more,

227
00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:41,000
Speaker 3: but will do everything possible where that won't be the case.

228
00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:45,080
Speaker 3: But America will avenge their deaths and deliver the most

229
00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:48,520
Speaker 3: punishing blow to the terrorists who have waged.

230
00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:51,240
Speaker 2: War against basically civilization.

231
00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:57,800
Speaker 3: They have waged war against civilization itself. Our resolve and

232
00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:02,600
Speaker 3: likewise that of Israel, has never been stronger. America is

233
00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:06,920
Speaker 3: now again the richest most powerful nation in the world

234
00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:10,840
Speaker 3: by far. But the only reason we enjoy the quality

235
00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:13,800
Speaker 3: of life that we do and the freedom and security

236
00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:18,960
Speaker 3: is we have done things that others are unable to do.

237
00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:22,680
Speaker 2: But it's because of warriors who are.

238
00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:26,760
Speaker 3: Willing to lay down their lives to do battle with

239
00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:32,080
Speaker 3: our enemies, and they do battle better than anybody. An

240
00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:37,080
Speaker 3: Iranian regime armed with long range missiles and nuclear weapons

241
00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:40,600
Speaker 3: would be a dire threat to every American. We cannot

242
00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:45,960
Speaker 3: allow a nation that raises terrorist armies to possess such weapons,

243
00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:50,440
Speaker 3: would allow them to extort the world to their evil.

244
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:52,040
Speaker 2: Will not going to let it happen.

245
00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:54,960
Speaker 3: We're not happening to us, and we're not going to

246
00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:58,600
Speaker 3: let it happen to others. The United States says, the

247
00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:03,080
Speaker 3: strongest military the world has ever seen I rebuilt our

248
00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:04,960
Speaker 3: military in my first term.

249
00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:06,600
Speaker 2: There's never been.

250
00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:12,800
Speaker 3: A military like we possess, and frankly, there's nobody even close.

251
00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:16,560
Speaker 3: But we are now using that military for good We

252
00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:20,600
Speaker 3: want to have it for good purpose. We're undertaking this

253
00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:25,840
Speaker 3: massive operation not merely to ensure security for our own

254
00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:29,200
Speaker 3: time and place, but for our children and their children,

255
00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:33,520
Speaker 3: just as our ancestors have done for us many many

256
00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:34,160
Speaker 3: years ago.

257
00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:38,639
Speaker 2: This is the duty and the burden of a free people.

258
00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:43,199
Speaker 3: These actions are right, and they are necessary to ensure

259
00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:48,320
Speaker 3: that Americans will never have to face a radical, bloodthirsty

260
00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:52,480
Speaker 3: terrorist regime armed with nuclear weapons.

261
00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:53,760
Speaker 2: And lots of threats.

262
00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:58,720
Speaker 3: For almost fifty years, these wicked extremists have been attacking

263
00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:03,760
Speaker 3: the United States well, chanting the slogan death to America

264
00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:07,560
Speaker 3: or death to Israel or both. They are the world's

265
00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:11,320
Speaker 3: number one state sponsor of terror. We are the world's

266
00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:14,520
Speaker 3: greatest and most powerful nations, so we can do something

267
00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:19,440
Speaker 3: about what they do. These intolerable threats will not continue

268
00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:24,639
Speaker 3: any longer. I once again urge the Revolutionary Guard the

269
00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:29,800
Speaker 3: Iranian military police to lay down your arms and receive

270
00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:33,240
Speaker 3: full immunity or face certain death. It will be certain

271
00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:38,439
Speaker 3: death won't be pretty. I call upon all Iranian patriots

272
00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:43,280
Speaker 3: who yearn for freedom to seize this moment to be brave,

273
00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:47,160
Speaker 3: be bold, be heroic, and take back your country.

274
00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:48,720
Speaker 2: America is with you.

275
00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:52,560
Speaker 3: I made a promise to you, and I fulfilled that promise.

276
00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:56,040
Speaker 2: The rest will be up to you, but will be

277
00:18:56,119 --> 00:18:57,600
Speaker 2: there to help. Thank you.

278
00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:02,880
Speaker 3: God bless you to our incredible warriors, and God bless

279
00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:05,240
Speaker 3: the United States of America.

280
00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:05,960
Speaker 2: Thank you.

281
00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:11,280
Speaker 1: Iranian Americans gathered at a federal building here in Los

282
00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:14,320
Speaker 1: Angeles for a rally to celebrate the death of the

283
00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:17,480
Speaker 1: Supreme Leader. Our own Willie Nelson was there.

284
00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:21,040
Speaker 4: Number nineteen Persians have gotten together for a rally in

285
00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:23,560
Speaker 4: front of the Los Angeles Federal Building and support and

286
00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:27,679
Speaker 4: celebration after Iran's Supreme leader, Homony, has been killed in

287
00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:31,400
Speaker 4: a military operations strike led by the United States and Israel.

288
00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:35,280
Speaker 4: The old Iranian flags are waving high. Many pro Trump

289
00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:39,560
Speaker 4: signs can be seen, including attendees wearing red Maga Trump hats,

290
00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:42,719
Speaker 4: and there's lots of music and dancing. It feels like

291
00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:49,399

300
00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:19,639
Speaker 2: Chapter.

301
00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:24,560
Speaker 1: Every society is judged by how it treats the most vulnerable.

302
00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:27,800
Speaker 1: I'm Larry Elder. Right now, families across Latin America and

303
00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:30,240
Speaker 1: in the Caribbean are living without something we take for

304
00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:34,359
Speaker 1: granted every day, clean water. Mothers walk miles to find it,

305
00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:36,600
Speaker 1: children to school to carry it, and too often the

306
00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:39,840
Speaker 1: water they bring home spreads disease instead of sustaining life.

307
00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:44,240
Speaker 1: That's not just unfortunate, it's unacceptable. Water is foundational. Without it,

308
00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:48,320
Speaker 1: health declines, opportunity disappears, communities cannot thrive. But you can

309
00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:50,760
Speaker 1: help solve this through food for the poor. Your gift

310
00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:55,040
Speaker 1: provides safe and living water, protecting children, strengthening families, and

311
00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:59,200
Speaker 1: advancing lasting hope through local churches. It's practical, it's measurable,

312
00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:02,119
Speaker 1: it's the right thing to do. Your gift of fifty

313
00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:05,040
Speaker 1: dollars insures two people have safe in living water or

00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:25,760
Speaker 1: Let's go.

344
00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:33,560
Speaker 6: Civilians. Who in the world puts civilians in jeopardy? Listen,

345
00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:39,840
Speaker 6: I'm all for stopping terrorism and madness and craziness, but

346
00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:42,760
Speaker 6: if you're going to do a strike, you better dang

347
00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:45,080
Speaker 6: go on well, and I want to use another word,

348
00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:47,880
Speaker 6: not put civilians.

349
00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:50,560
Speaker 1: In jeopard t Now you mean the way you mean,

350
00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:52,720
Speaker 1: the way you mean, the way the terrorists do, the

351
00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:53,840
Speaker 1: way the way Hamas does.

352
00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:56,600
Speaker 8: No, I'm talking about us as.

353
00:22:56,880 --> 00:22:59,119
Speaker 1: No, I'm talking I'm talking about our enemy. Are you

354
00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:06,480
Speaker 1: Are you suggesting that has not using civilians? Okay?

355
00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:09,320
Speaker 8: Donald Trump said this. Now I'm I'm gonna answer you

356
00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:13,119
Speaker 8: a question. Donald Trump said, he said.

357
00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:14,680
Speaker 6: Just going to your homes.

358
00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:16,920
Speaker 8: Don't come out of your homes. It's not safe. They're

359
00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:19,399
Speaker 8: gonna be bombs everywhere. Just going to your home. But

360
00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:24,080
Speaker 8: ethic most ridiculous statement ever. He should have said, evacuate

361
00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:26,840
Speaker 8: the country. Who's just gonna go into their homes and

362
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:30,480
Speaker 8: be safe? And he said it's gonna be something is

363
00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:31,320
Speaker 8: wrong with this man.

364
00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:31,760
Speaker 2: Listen.

365
00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:32,399
Speaker 6: My thing is this.

366
00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:35,480
Speaker 8: Okay, you want justice, do it the right way. When

367
00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:39,400
Speaker 8: you go into people's countries. You do not get civilians involved,

368
00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:43,200
Speaker 8: and you don't put stuff on the internet with civilians

369
00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:46,600
Speaker 8: being killed and then making fun of that. I've seen

370
00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:50,640
Speaker 8: you put something on the internet, Larry about uh, some

371
00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:54,440
Speaker 8: type of meme that you did with the head guy

372
00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:57,639
Speaker 8: and a bunch of women around him, and that was

373
00:23:57,680 --> 00:24:04,560
Speaker 8: not funny. There are civilians. You have to protect the civilians.

374
00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:07,080
Speaker 1: A super super rashide, super rashide. Are you saying that

375
00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:09,200
Speaker 1: President Trump is bombing civilians.

376
00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:14,320
Speaker 8: I'm not saying that's his goal. He's not being careful

377
00:24:14,560 --> 00:24:17,840
Speaker 8: enough not to. If you're gonna send your people over there,

378
00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:21,119
Speaker 8: say look, we're gonna hit strategic sights.

379
00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:23,960
Speaker 1: That's exactly what he's That's exactly what he said. That's

380
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:26,240
Speaker 1: exactly what he said. That's exactly what the Secretary of

381
00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:29,359
Speaker 1: Wards said at the press conference. Uh, and the General Kine,

382
00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:31,640
Speaker 1: who's leading all of this, That's exactly what they said.

383
00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:36,480
Speaker 1: These are military targets, not civilian targets, not hospitals, not mosques,

384
00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:40,399
Speaker 1: not schools. The way the enemy does how is.

385
00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:45,560
Speaker 8: Civilians involved right now? How are civilians being eliminated right now?

386
00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:49,920
Speaker 8: Help me understand that, bro, Because somebody is careless and.

387
00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:53,840
Speaker 1: What they're doing over there will will there will there

388
00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:56,280
Speaker 1: inevitably be some civilians who are going to be killed

389
00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:59,520
Speaker 1: no matter how careful we are. Absolutely, but the objective

390
00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:05,919
Speaker 1: is russy day. The objective is military targets. If you expect,

391
00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:09,399
Speaker 1: if you expect a war to only involve fighters and

392
00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:13,840
Speaker 1: never involve civilians, you're not being very realistic. Larry.

393
00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:16,359
Speaker 8: It came out of his own mouth. He said, just

394
00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:19,119
Speaker 8: go into your homes. You'll be safe, because if you

395
00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:21,480
Speaker 8: come out of your homes, there's gonna be bombs everywhere.

396
00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:24,320
Speaker 8: What in the world this man is sick. What you

397
00:25:24,359 --> 00:25:27,520
Speaker 8: mean just going to your homes. Don't come out because it's.

398
00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:30,840
Speaker 1: Not safe, meaning meaning going to your homes. We don't

399
00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:31,560
Speaker 1: bomb homes.

400
00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:36,000
Speaker 8: Meaning that he should have said, give the people a

401
00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:39,080
Speaker 8: chance to evacuate out of the country. Give them a

402
00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:41,439
Speaker 8: few weeks, say look, or a month get out of

403
00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:44,080
Speaker 8: the country. Oh, just going to your homes and get

404
00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:45,960
Speaker 8: them to your bids, you'll be okay. Are you out

405
00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:48,920
Speaker 8: of your freaking mind? He's out of his mind, bro,

406
00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:51,440
Speaker 8: so you guys need to you Republicans need to keep

407
00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:52,080
Speaker 8: this man in check.

408
00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:54,600
Speaker 1: Okay, okay, Super Rushy Day, thank you very much for

409
00:25:54,680 --> 00:26:00,119
Speaker 1: your insightful analysis of exactly how wars are conducted. I

410
00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:13,720
Speaker 1: appreciate it. Hamas these terrorists they hire their facilities in schools, hospitals, mosques.

411
00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:17,720
Speaker 1: And one of the reasons all these other Gulf states

412
00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:21,960
Speaker 1: are now getting involved in attacking Iran is because Iran

413
00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:25,879
Speaker 1: did exactly what Super Rashide said we were doing. They

414
00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:30,000
Speaker 1: attacked a hotel in Dubai. Are you kidding me? What

415
00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:33,480
Speaker 1: did Dubai have to do with this? They were supposedly neutral.

416
00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:39,080
Speaker 1: They've attacked all sorts of friendly or neutral states in

417
00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:43,360
Speaker 1: the Middle East, which is why Iran has very few friends.

418
00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:47,840
Speaker 1: What is the Russian said? What if the Chinese said?

419
00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:51,639
Speaker 1: Russia has a bit on its plate right now? So

420
00:26:51,720 --> 00:26:57,640
Speaker 1: this is really game changer, a sea change. More from

421
00:26:57,840 --> 00:27:03,720
Speaker 1: the Secretary of War We come back. I'm Larry to

Speaker 1: Triple eight ninety seven one seven two four three Larry

424
00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:19,280
Speaker 1: Yolder Salem News Channel, coming to you from the Relief

425
00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:21,639
Speaker 1: Factor Studio. Don't forget your relief factor eight hundred four

426
00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:26,400
Speaker 1: relief eight hundred the number for relief or reliefactor dot com.

427
00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:30,600
Speaker 1: That's all one word, relief factor dot com. There's a

428
00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:38,240
Speaker 1: obituary on the Iatola Harmione in the Washington Post. I've

429
00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:40,080
Speaker 1: read it three times to make sure I didn't miss it.

430
00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:47,879
Speaker 1: Not one time is the word terror or terrorist used.

431
00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:57,080
Speaker 1: Not one time. Quote an early follower of Ayatola Ruali Hamiene,

432
00:27:57,440 --> 00:28:01,800
Speaker 1: the Austere cleric who inspired the revolution against Iran's US

433
00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:05,880
Speaker 1: back monarchy, staunchly opposed the United States and Israel, rejected

434
00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:12,320
Speaker 1: Western liberalism and adhered strictly to fundamental social policies. With

435
00:28:12,440 --> 00:28:15,200
Speaker 1: his bushy white beard and easy smile. I'm not making

436
00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:18,400
Speaker 1: this up. I had told a Harmoni cut a more

437
00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:24,040
Speaker 1: evuncular figure in public than his perpetually scowling, much more

438
00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:27,760
Speaker 1: revered mentor. He was known to be fond of Persian

439
00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:34,119
Speaker 1: poetry and classic Western novels, especially Victor Hugo's Les Miserrob

440
00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:44,520
Speaker 1: Not one word calling him a terrorist, And it mentioned

441
00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:48,080
Speaker 1: the recent crackdown killing more than sixty eight hundred protests.

442
00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:49,800
Speaker 1: I heard the number of more like twenty or thirty.

443
00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:52,680
Speaker 1: These would be the civilians that are friend from Detroit

444
00:28:52,720 --> 00:29:00,520
Speaker 1: that's so concerned about Jim is in Portland, Oregon. Jim,

445
00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:02,120
Speaker 1: you're the Larry Old the show. Thank you for calling.

446
00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:05,760
Speaker 9: Oh, thank you, Larry. I was wondering if you could

447
00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:10,320
Speaker 9: comment on my comment, which is I wish in the

448
00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:16,320
Speaker 9: USA Iranian negotiations that the subject of bringing mass murderers

449
00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:18,800
Speaker 9: to justice, to bring them to trial would have been

450
00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:21,360
Speaker 9: brought up. I don't think the Iranians would.

451
00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:21,480
Speaker 5: Have done it.

452
00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:24,120
Speaker 9: They're afraid of their own mass murderers, I suppose, but

453
00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:27,680
Speaker 9: it would have united the American public. What American could

454
00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:30,720
Speaker 9: be against bringing mass murderers to justice?

455
00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:34,080
Speaker 1: I like it. I'm not sure how many of them

456
00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:38,160
Speaker 1: are still going to be left. The lead mass murderer

457
00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:40,680
Speaker 1: is dead, as are at least forty forty eight of

458
00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:45,640
Speaker 1: his subordinates, so we'll find out. This is the Secretary

459
00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:49,440
Speaker 1: of War and General Caine giving a briefing number thirty eight.

460
00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:52,160
Speaker 10: Well, good morning, now, we just finished an update with

461
00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:56,040
Speaker 10: Admiral Brad Cooper, the sent Com commander across the centcom aar.

462
00:29:55,760 --> 00:30:00,200
Speaker 7: Our leadership and troops as you would expect, doing a fantastic.

463
00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:04,360
Speaker 10: Two days ago under the direction and direct orders of

464
00:30:04,400 --> 00:30:07,280
Speaker 10: President Donald J. Trump, the Department of War launched Operation

465
00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:12,600
Speaker 10: Epic Fury, the most lethal, most complex, and most precise

466
00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:17,640
Speaker 10: aerial operation in history. For forty seven long years, the

467
00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:21,800
Speaker 10: expansionist and Islamist regime in Tehran has waged a savage,

468
00:30:21,880 --> 00:30:25,880
Speaker 10: one sided war against America. They didn't always declare it openly,

469
00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:29,120
Speaker 10: except for their constant chance of death to America.

470
00:30:29,920 --> 00:30:32,040
Speaker 7: They did it through the blood of our people.

471
00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:37,200
Speaker 10: Car bombs in Beirut, rocket attacks on our ships, murders

472
00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:42,520
Speaker 10: at our embassy's, roadside bombs in Iraq and Afghanistan, funded

473
00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:47,960
Speaker 10: and armed by Iranian Koud's Force and IRGC killers. My

474
00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:52,080
Speaker 10: generation of veterans carried the names of brothers who never

475
00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:56,880
Speaker 10: came home, brothers butchered by Iranian backed roadside bombs and

476
00:30:56,960 --> 00:31:02,360
Speaker 10: well armed militias, thousands of our own. We didn't start

477
00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:06,320
Speaker 10: this war, but under President Trump, we are finishing it.

478
00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:11,560
Speaker 10: Their war on Americans has become our retribution against their

479
00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:17,120
Speaker 10: Ayatola and his death cult. It took the forty seventh President,

480
00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:20,960
Speaker 10: a fighter who always puts America first, to finally draw

481
00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:25,640
Speaker 10: the line after forty seven years of Iranian belligerents. He

482
00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:28,160
Speaker 10: reminded the world, as he has time and time again.

483
00:31:28,600 --> 00:31:33,200
Speaker 10: Being an American means something unbreakable. If you kill Americans,

484
00:31:33,760 --> 00:31:36,880
Speaker 10: if you threaten Americans anywhere on Earth, we will hunt

485
00:31:36,920 --> 00:31:41,920
Speaker 10: you down without apology and without hesitation, and we will

486
00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:47,760
Speaker 10: kill you. President Trump has also been very consistent. Crazy

487
00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:53,240
Speaker 10: regimes like Iran, hell bent on prophetic Islamist delusions, cannot

488
00:31:53,280 --> 00:31:58,240
Speaker 10: have nuclear weapons. It's common sense. Many have said it,

489
00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:01,560
Speaker 10: but it takes guts to actually enforce it, and our

490
00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:07,760
Speaker 10: president has guts. Iran's stubborn and self evident nuclear pursuits,

491
00:32:07,800 --> 00:32:11,360
Speaker 10: their targeting of global shipping lanes, and their swelling arsenal

492
00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:15,160
Speaker 10: of ballistic missiles and killer drones were no longer are

493
00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:20,600
Speaker 10: no longer tolerable risks. Iran was building powerful missiles and

494
00:32:20,680 --> 00:32:26,240
Speaker 10: drones to create a conventional shield for their nuclear blackmail ambitions.

495
00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:30,040
Speaker 10: Let me say that again, a conventional shield for their

496
00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:35,920
Speaker 10: nuclear blackmail ambitions. Our bases, our people, our allies all

497
00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:39,800
Speaker 10: in their crosshairs. Iran had a conventional gun to our

498
00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:42,840
Speaker 10: head as they tried to lie their way to.

499
00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:43,640
Speaker 7: A nuclear bomb.

500
00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:49,040
Speaker 10: It almost worked under Obama and his terrible deal, but

501
00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:53,280
Speaker 10: not under this president. Turns out, the regime who chanted

502
00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:58,920
Speaker 10: death to America and death to Israel was gifted death

503
00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:04,080
Speaker 10: from America and death from Israel. This is not a

504
00:33:04,280 --> 00:33:09,280
Speaker 10: so called regime change war, but the regime sure did.

505
00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:14,240
Speaker 7: Change, and the world is better off for it. Today.

506
00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:19,080
Speaker 10: In their desperation, the enemy is unmasked as Iranian missiles

507
00:33:19,080 --> 00:33:25,280
Speaker 10: and drones rained down indiscriminately on the hotels, airports, apartments,

508
00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:31,160
Speaker 10: and other civilian targets of their neighbors. Cowardly terrorist tactics

509
00:33:31,400 --> 00:33:35,160
Speaker 10: from a regime that for decades has trafficked in cowardly

510
00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:41,600
Speaker 10: terrorist tactics lies death and destruction. To this day, the

511
00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:47,080
Speaker 10: Iranian leadership has built nothing except proxies and missiles and drones.

512
00:33:46,720 --> 00:33:49,920
Speaker 7: And deeply buried nuclear factories and facilities.

513
00:33:50,760 --> 00:33:55,840
Speaker 10: Peaceful nuclear ambitions do not need to be buried underneath mountains.

514
00:33:57,600 --> 00:34:04,520
Speaker 10: Last June, Operation Midnight Hammer obliterated their nuclear program to rubble. Afterward,

515
00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:06,680
Speaker 10: we told them plainly that's it. Now make a deal.

516
00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:08,760
Speaker 10: They arrogantly refused.

517
00:34:09,239 --> 00:34:10,719
Speaker 7: We said, rebuild it.

518
00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:14,239
Speaker 10: And we'll stop you again, this time far worse. Well,

519
00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:18,959
Speaker 10: President Trump, Secretary Rubio, Steve Whitcoff, Jared Kushner. They bent

520
00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:23,400
Speaker 10: over backwards for real diplomacy. Offering pathway after pathway to peace.

521
00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:24,440
Speaker 7: I watched it.

522
00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:25,040
Speaker 2: I was there.

523
00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:30,000
Speaker 10: They tried over and over and over again, earnest attempts

524
00:34:30,040 --> 00:34:34,319
Speaker 10: at peace. The former regime had every chance to make

525
00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:39,319
Speaker 10: a peaceful and sensible deal, but Taran was not negotiating.

526
00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:44,000
Speaker 1: More on this later. We're also going to talk about

527
00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:48,080
Speaker 1: the decade long campaign of terror against Americans. You know,

528
00:34:48,160 --> 00:34:50,439
Speaker 1: one of the most rewarding parts of sharing Relief Actor

529
00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:53,920
Speaker 1: with you all is hearing real stories like Sandra's. She

530
00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:56,040
Speaker 1: tells us, I've been hearing about Relief Factor on the

531
00:34:56,120 --> 00:34:58,560
Speaker 1: radio for a couple of years, and I finally decided

532
00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:00,680
Speaker 1: to try it because nothing else was hell helping my

533
00:35:00,760 --> 00:35:03,960
Speaker 1: back pain With a three week quick start, though, I

534
00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:06,600
Speaker 1: went for it. Now I feel like a new person.

535
00:35:07,160 --> 00:35:11,480
Speaker 1: That's Sandra's own words, and so gratifying to hear. I've

536
00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:13,600
Speaker 1: told you about my brother Kirk having difficulty going up

537
00:35:13,640 --> 00:35:16,080
Speaker 1: and down the stairs in the morning. He finally took

538
00:35:16,120 --> 00:35:18,680
Speaker 1: my advice began taking relief Factor. After abound seven days,

539
00:35:18,680 --> 00:35:22,880
Speaker 1: he calls. He says, this is working. Try for yourself.

540
00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:26,719
Speaker 1: Three week quick start nineteen dollars ninety five cents, less

541
00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:28,960
Speaker 1: than a dollar a day. See our relief factor could

Speaker 2: Hi, Larry.

547
00:35:52,160 --> 00:35:57,680
Speaker 5: As soon as the attack happened in Iran, Zoron, Mondani

548
00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:03,040
Speaker 5: came on and came on the air and said that

549
00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:06,239
Speaker 5: we are targeting civilians, which is a flat out wy.

550
00:36:07,560 --> 00:36:09,799
Speaker 5: It's incredible, So anyway, love your show.

Speaker 1: Layers Triple eight nine seven one Sage Triple eight nine

552
00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:17,400
Speaker 1: seventy one seven two four three. IM Larry Elder, we

553
00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:21,279
Speaker 1: are Salem News Channel. Same thing that our friend from

554
00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:27,799
Speaker 1: Detroit said. We're going to talk about the decade long

555
00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:31,280
Speaker 1: campaign against Americans waged by this terror regime. But first

556
00:36:31,719 --> 00:36:33,160
Speaker 1: back to Secretary of War.

557
00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:37,040
Speaker 10: Real diplomacy offering pathway after pathway to peace.

558
00:36:37,360 --> 00:36:38,080
Speaker 7: I watched it.

559
00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:38,720
Speaker 2: I was there.

560
00:36:39,440 --> 00:36:43,640
Speaker 10: They tried over and over and over again, earnest attempts

561
00:36:43,680 --> 00:36:47,959
Speaker 10: at peace. The former regime had every chance to make

562
00:36:48,080 --> 00:36:52,960
Speaker 10: a peaceful and sensible deal, but Tehran was not negotiating.

563
00:36:53,719 --> 00:36:57,799
Speaker 10: They were stalling, buying time to reload their missile stockpiles

564
00:36:57,840 --> 00:37:02,560
Speaker 10: and restart their nuclear ambition, their goal hold US hostage,

565
00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:03,759
Speaker 10: threatening to.

566
00:37:03,719 --> 00:37:05,240
Speaker 7: Strike our forces.

567
00:37:05,719 --> 00:37:10,800
Speaker 10: Well, President Trump doesn't play those games, And, as Secretary

568
00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:13,960
Speaker 10: Rubio said after the Maduro raid, if you don't know,

569
00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:20,120
Speaker 10: now you know. President Trump puts America and Americans first.

570
00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:24,200
Speaker 10: He doesn't hesitate, and neither do our troops. The mission

571
00:37:24,239 --> 00:37:29,760
Speaker 10: of Operation Epic Fury is laser focused. Destroy Iranian offensive missiles,

572
00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:34,600
Speaker 10: destroy Iranian missile production, destroy their navy and other security infrastructure,

573
00:37:34,760 --> 00:37:40,080
Speaker 10: and they will never have nuclear weapons. We're hitting them surgically,

574
00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:47,440
Speaker 10: overwhelmingly and unapologetically. With every passing day, our capabilities get

575
00:37:47,480 --> 00:37:52,239
Speaker 10: stronger and Iran's get weaker. We set the terms of

576
00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:57,440
Speaker 10: this war from start to finish. Our ambitions are not utopian.

577
00:37:58,400 --> 00:38:02,720
Speaker 10: They are realistic, scoped to our interests and the defense.

578
00:38:02,400 --> 00:38:04,520
Speaker 7: Of our people and our allies.

579
00:38:05,880 --> 00:38:10,120
Speaker 10: Speaking of people, we hope the Iranian people take advantage

580
00:38:10,120 --> 00:38:14,480
Speaker 10: of this incredible opportunity. President Trump has been clear, now

581
00:38:14,640 --> 00:38:19,800
Speaker 10: is your time to Iranian security forces.

582
00:38:20,920 --> 00:38:22,160
Speaker 7: Choose wisely.

583
00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:27,640
Speaker 10: President Trump has also been clear about your fate in

584
00:38:27,680 --> 00:38:33,240
Speaker 10: either direction. To the media outlets and political left screaming

585
00:38:33,320 --> 00:38:38,160
Speaker 10: endless wars, stop, this is not a raq, this is

586
00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:38,880
Speaker 10: not endless.

587
00:38:39,680 --> 00:38:43,319
Speaker 7: I was there for both. Our generation knows better, and

588
00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:44,880
Speaker 7: so does this president.

589
00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:48,760
Speaker 10: He called the last twenty years of nation building wars dumb,

590
00:38:49,560 --> 00:38:50,160
Speaker 10: and he's right.

591
00:38:51,280 --> 00:38:52,880
Speaker 7: This is the opposite.

592
00:38:53,880 --> 00:38:59,040
Speaker 10: This operation is a clear, devastating, decisive mission, destroy the

593
00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:03,200
Speaker 10: missile threat, destroy the navy, no nukes.

594
00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:06,520
Speaker 1: More from the Secretary of War and the Chairman of

595
00:39:06,560 --> 00:39:10,120
Speaker 1: the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Dan raising Kine when we

596
00:39:10,160 --> 00:39:12,680
Speaker 1: come back, Triple eight nine seven one S A G E.

597
00:39:12,760 --> 00:39:23,960
Speaker 1: I am Larry Elder, So let's get her teed up

598
00:39:25,080 --> 00:39:25,680
Speaker 1: to play.

599
00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:27,120
Speaker 2: Set off to my.

600
00:39:31,239 --> 00:39:35,480
Speaker 1: That's of DEGO. Triple eight nine seven one seven two

601
00:39:35,480 --> 00:39:38,239
Speaker 1: four three Triple eight nine seven one S A G E.

602
00:39:38,400 --> 00:39:42,320
Speaker 1: Larry Elder sail and moves channel. Let's start with the

603
00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:47,400
Speaker 1: seizure of the US embassy in nineteen seventy nine. Fifty

604
00:39:47,400 --> 00:39:50,120
Speaker 1: two Americans held hostage for four hundred and forty four days.

605
00:39:52,840 --> 00:39:59,640
Speaker 1: It brings us to the eighties. Hesbela funded trained directed

606
00:39:59,680 --> 00:40:03,279
Speaker 1: by a wave of terror, including but not limited to,

607
00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:07,560
Speaker 1: the April nineteen eighty three suicide bombing at the US

608
00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:14,399
Speaker 1: Embassy in Beyroot killed sixty three people. October nineteen eighty

609
00:40:14,400 --> 00:40:18,560
Speaker 1: three Marine Barracks bombing and Brayroot killed two hundred and

610
00:40:18,560 --> 00:40:24,879
Speaker 1: forty one US Service personnel. That was at the time

611
00:40:24,920 --> 00:40:29,959
Speaker 1: the deadliest attack against the US Marines since the World

612
00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:36,120
Speaker 1: War II Battle over Iwujima in nineteen forty five. Then

613
00:40:36,120 --> 00:40:43,000
Speaker 1: we had kidnappings, hijackings, executions, the murder of Cia Beayroot

614
00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:52,480
Speaker 1: station chief William Buckley in nineteen eighty four. Hamas bus

615
00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:58,480
Speaker 1: bomb in Jerusalem killed three Americans. Two thousand and one

616
00:40:58,520 --> 00:41:09,080
Speaker 1: Pizzaia bombing and Jerusalem killed three Americans. Kobar towers carried

617
00:41:09,080 --> 00:41:17,120
Speaker 1: out by Hesbodah, funded by supported by Iran. This was

618
00:41:17,120 --> 00:41:23,280
Speaker 1: in Saudi Arabia. The attack involved a truck bomb detonated

619
00:41:23,320 --> 00:41:30,680
Speaker 1: near a complex housing US Force personnel. Nineteen American airmen

620
00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:42,640
Speaker 1: killed five hundred others injured. Investigation tied Iran directly to

621
00:41:42,719 --> 00:41:49,480
Speaker 1: the bombing. Now, according to the nine to eleven Commission,

622
00:41:50,680 --> 00:41:53,839
Speaker 1: there's no evidence that Iran was aware of the nine

623
00:41:53,880 --> 00:42:01,200
Speaker 1: eleven attacks in advance, but they did facilitate and transit

624
00:42:01,280 --> 00:42:08,960
Speaker 1: of al Qaeda members in out of Afghanistan before the attacks. Then,

625
00:42:09,040 --> 00:42:15,240
Speaker 1: during the Iraq War two thousand three twenty eleven, Iran

626
00:42:15,440 --> 00:42:22,279
Speaker 1: orchestrated much of the IEDs that were used to killed

627
00:42:22,280 --> 00:42:28,560
Speaker 1: American service personnel. The U s Department of Defense as

628
00:42:28,560 --> 00:42:31,120
Speaker 1: it was called at the time, said that a RAM

629
00:42:31,280 --> 00:42:33,719
Speaker 1: was responsible for at least six hundred and eight American

630
00:42:33,760 --> 00:42:37,600
Speaker 1: troop deaths in Iraq between two thousand three and twenty eleven.

631
00:42:39,400 --> 00:42:43,040
Speaker 1: That's roughly seventeen percent of all US personnel deaths in

632
00:42:43,040 --> 00:42:48,400
Speaker 1: that period, and Iran trained and armed these proxy fighters.

633
00:42:54,840 --> 00:43:01,680
Speaker 1: More recently, March twenty twenty three, Iranian drone struck a

634
00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:06,480
Speaker 1: US base in Syria, killing an American contractor, woly five

635
00:43:06,560 --> 00:43:13,640
Speaker 1: more US troops. January twenty twenty four, Iranian back terror

636
00:43:13,719 --> 00:43:17,680
Speaker 1: group launched a drone strike on Tower twenty two, which

637
00:43:17,719 --> 00:43:23,320
Speaker 1: is a logistics post in northeastern Jordan, killing three American

638
00:43:23,360 --> 00:43:31,760
Speaker 1: soldiers Injuring forty more. October seventh, Secretary of War mentions

639
00:43:31,800 --> 00:43:37,640
Speaker 1: that that's when the Iranian back group HAMAS killed twelve

640
00:43:37,680 --> 00:43:42,160
Speaker 1: hundred people, took two hundred and fifty hostages. Among the

641
00:43:42,239 --> 00:43:47,160
Speaker 1: victims were more than forty Americans and several US citizens

642
00:43:47,160 --> 00:43:54,760
Speaker 1: were taken hostage, several of whom confirmed murdered by Hamas.

643
00:43:57,640 --> 00:44:00,000
Speaker 1: We have a network of bases in the Middle East.

644
00:44:02,360 --> 00:44:11,040
Speaker 1: Roughly forty thousand US troops are stationed, all have been

645
00:44:11,680 --> 00:44:15,359
Speaker 1: frequently targeted by Iran or by Iranian proxies. Let's get

646
00:44:15,360 --> 00:44:20,520
Speaker 1: back to Secretary Heseth and the Joint Chief Press Conference.

647
00:44:22,440 --> 00:44:26,360
Speaker 10: Israel has clear missions as well, for which we are grateful.

648
00:44:27,440 --> 00:44:28,440
Speaker 7: Capable partners.

649
00:44:28,760 --> 00:44:32,719
Speaker 10: As we've said since the beginning, capable partners are good partners,

650
00:44:33,880 --> 00:44:37,279
Speaker 10: Unlike so many of our traditional allies who wring their

651
00:44:37,280 --> 00:44:41,080
Speaker 10: hands and clutch their pearls, hemming and hawing about the

652
00:44:41,160 --> 00:44:41,840
Speaker 10: use of force.

653
00:44:43,640 --> 00:44:44,879
Speaker 7: America, regardless of.

654
00:44:44,840 --> 00:44:48,080
Speaker 10: What so called international institutions say, is unleashing the most

655
00:44:48,160 --> 00:44:54,840
Speaker 10: lethal and precise air power campaign in history B two's fighters, drones, missiles,

656
00:44:54,840 --> 00:45:01,600
Speaker 10: and of course classified effects, all on our terms, with

657
00:45:01,719 --> 00:45:05,960
Speaker 10: maximum authorities. No stupid rules of engagement, no nation building quagmire,

658
00:45:06,080 --> 00:45:11,719
Speaker 10: no democracy building exercise, no politically correct wars. We fight

659
00:45:11,800 --> 00:45:16,359
Speaker 10: to win, and we don't waste time or lives. As

660
00:45:16,400 --> 00:45:21,640
Speaker 10: the President warned, an effort of this scope will include casualties.

661
00:45:22,360 --> 00:45:24,799
Speaker 7: War as hell and always will be.

662
00:45:26,320 --> 00:45:29,320
Speaker 10: A grateful nation honors the four Americans we have lost

663
00:45:29,400 --> 00:45:35,920
Speaker 10: thus far and those injured the absolute best of America.

664
00:45:36,120 --> 00:45:39,680
Speaker 10: May we prosecute the remainder of this operation in a

665
00:45:39,760 --> 00:45:47,360
Speaker 10: manner that honors them, no apologies, no hesitation, epic fury

666
00:45:48,320 --> 00:45:52,400
Speaker 10: for them and the thousands of Americans before them, taken

667
00:45:52,440 --> 00:45:57,200
Speaker 10: too soon by Iranian radicals. Before I turn it over

668
00:45:57,239 --> 00:45:59,720
Speaker 10: to General Kine for the operational update, let me speak

669
00:45:59,719 --> 00:46:04,560
Speaker 10: straight to you. The Joint Force are warriors on the

670
00:46:04,560 --> 00:46:09,279
Speaker 10: front lines. This is your moment. This is the generational

671
00:46:09,280 --> 00:46:12,120
Speaker 10: turning point America has waited for since nineteen seventy nine

672
00:46:12,120 --> 00:46:15,759
Speaker 10: and since the rudderless Wars of Hubris. My generation, our

673
00:46:15,800 --> 00:46:20,560
Speaker 10: generation endured. Don't listen to the noise. Just stay focused.

674
00:46:21,280 --> 00:46:23,200
Speaker 10: Our commander in chief is steady.

675
00:46:22,960 --> 00:46:26,640
Speaker 7: At the wheel. We face a determined enemy. But you

676
00:46:26,880 --> 00:46:30,560
Speaker 7: are better. But we must prove it every single day.

677
00:46:30,640 --> 00:46:33,880
Speaker 10: History doesn't care if we're tired, if we're scared, or

678
00:46:33,880 --> 00:46:38,600
Speaker 10: if the fight feels big. It demands warriors who rise anyway.

679
00:46:39,280 --> 00:46:44,360
Speaker 10: Peace through strength, the warrior ethos, lethality, unity of purpose.

680
00:46:44,480 --> 00:46:46,160
Speaker 7: Those are not slogans.

681
00:46:47,040 --> 00:46:50,080
Speaker 10: They're the beating heart of what it means to wear

682
00:46:50,160 --> 00:46:54,600
Speaker 10: the uniform. That uniform you think clearly under fire, you

683
00:46:54,640 --> 00:46:59,200
Speaker 10: act decisively in chaos. You uphold the Constitution, and you

684
00:46:59,280 --> 00:47:00,200
Speaker 10: uphold our cunt tree.

685
00:47:00,239 --> 00:47:01,000
Speaker 7: Without hesitation.

686
00:47:02,360 --> 00:47:07,560
Speaker 10: We are not defenders anymore. We are warriors, train to

687
00:47:07,640 --> 00:47:09,000
Speaker 10: kill the enemy and break their will.

688
00:47:09,320 --> 00:47:10,480
Speaker 7: History is watching.

689
00:47:10,840 --> 00:47:15,920
Speaker 10: Be the force you swore an oath to be focused, disciplined, lethal,

690
00:47:16,280 --> 00:47:23,400
Speaker 10: and unbreakable. We will finish this on America first conditions

691
00:47:23,960 --> 00:47:28,920
Speaker 10: of President Trump's choosing, nobody else's as it should be.

692
00:47:29,760 --> 00:47:32,839
Speaker 10: And know this above all, President Trump and I have

693
00:47:33,160 --> 00:47:40,280
Speaker 10: your back always, through fire, through criticism, through fake news,

694
00:47:40,800 --> 00:47:41,520
Speaker 10: through everything.

695
00:47:42,080 --> 00:47:44,760
Speaker 7: We unleash you because you are the best.

696
00:47:44,800 --> 00:47:49,359
Speaker 10: Most powerful, most lethal fighting force the world has ever seen.

697
00:47:51,600 --> 00:47:56,600
Speaker 10: May Almighty God watch over you, and his providential arms

698
00:47:56,640 --> 00:47:59,600
Speaker 10: of protection extend over you.

699
00:48:00,840 --> 00:48:03,080
Speaker 7: God speed, warriors, and keep going.

700
00:48:09,320 --> 00:48:15,319
Speaker 1: By the way, I've noticed that the channel CNN does

701
00:48:15,360 --> 00:48:19,840
Speaker 1: not refer to the Department of Defense as the Department

702
00:48:19,840 --> 00:48:25,160
Speaker 1: of War. They don't refer to Hexeth as Secretary of War.

703
00:48:25,200 --> 00:48:28,279
Speaker 1: They call him Secretary of Defense, even though Trump calls

704
00:48:28,320 --> 00:48:30,880
Speaker 1: him secretary of War. Has renamed the Department of Defense

705
00:48:30,880 --> 00:48:34,160
Speaker 1: Department of War. CNN has not seen fit to do that.

706
00:48:37,040 --> 00:48:45,520
Speaker 1: Do we have Dan Kine? Kay, We'll come back with that.

707
00:48:49,360 --> 00:48:56,560
Speaker 1: Time Magazine wrote a piece about why now and about

708
00:48:56,600 --> 00:49:02,680
Speaker 1: the negotiation that' supportedly were making progress. Says Trump was

709
00:49:02,840 --> 00:49:07,280
Speaker 1: frustrated because Iran flat out refused to discuss two things,

710
00:49:08,840 --> 00:49:14,920
Speaker 1: its construction of ballistic missiles and its support for the

711
00:49:15,000 --> 00:49:18,080
Speaker 1: terror proxies in the Middle East. Those were two topics

712
00:49:18,760 --> 00:49:26,960
Speaker 1: the Iranians, according to Time magazine, put off limit, and

713
00:49:27,000 --> 00:49:31,200
Speaker 1: the President also feared that Iran was simply buying time,

714
00:49:31,800 --> 00:49:37,239
Speaker 1: and as we assembled the forces around that country, they

715
00:49:37,360 --> 00:49:42,480
Speaker 1: might make a preemptive strike, causing mash casualties to American

716
00:49:42,520 --> 00:49:50,560
Speaker 1: service personnel, something that Trump was not going to even

717
00:49:51,080 --> 00:49:54,319
Speaker 1: possibly allow. All of this and more. Triple eight nine

718
00:49:54,360 --> 00:50:00,399
Speaker 1: seventy one S eight g E Larry Elder, You want

719
00:50:00,600 --> 00:50:03,360
Speaker 1: sage Triple eight ninety seven one seven two four to

720
00:50:03,440 --> 00:50:07,520
Speaker 1: three Larry Elder, Stalem News Channel. President Trump made the

721
00:50:07,560 --> 00:50:11,640
Speaker 1: most consequential decision by far of his administration, one of

722
00:50:11,680 --> 00:50:14,560
Speaker 1: the most consequential decisions ever made by an American president.

723
00:50:16,880 --> 00:50:20,279
Speaker 1: And when people ask me why now, my response is

724
00:50:20,360 --> 00:50:25,920
Speaker 1: what took so long? They had been killing Americans for decades,

725
00:50:26,880 --> 00:50:30,240
Speaker 1: threatening to try to annihilate America by acquiring a nuclear

726
00:50:30,280 --> 00:50:36,800
Speaker 1: bomb in using it. During the negotiations, Iranian officials handed

727
00:50:38,320 --> 00:50:45,640
Speaker 1: Kushner and Witkoff the envoy a seven page plan that

728
00:50:45,680 --> 00:50:48,239
Speaker 1: the Uranian said, we don't want it to leave the room.

729
00:50:50,320 --> 00:50:54,520
Speaker 1: The proposal would have allowed uranium to be enriched five

730
00:50:54,600 --> 00:50:58,000
Speaker 1: times higher than allowed under the nuclear deal that Iran

731
00:50:58,080 --> 00:51:01,880
Speaker 1: struck during the Obama administration that Trump ridiculed as insufficient

732
00:51:01,920 --> 00:51:06,160
Speaker 1: and ended in his first term. They were not serious.

733
00:51:06,960 --> 00:51:12,240
Speaker 1: As for what happens next, The son of the former

734
00:51:12,320 --> 00:51:19,839
Speaker 1: Shaw raise Upa Levi, was on sixty Minutes number twenty six, what.

735
00:51:20,080 --> 00:51:21,920
Speaker 11: Is your message to President Trump?

736
00:51:23,040 --> 00:51:25,840
Speaker 12: My message to President Trump is that I'm here to

737
00:51:25,960 --> 00:51:29,759
Speaker 12: echo and join millions of my compatriots inside and ass

738
00:51:29,800 --> 00:51:32,960
Speaker 12: out of Iran to thank him for having done and

739
00:51:33,040 --> 00:51:37,400
Speaker 12: having the courage to do what is not easy but intervene,

740
00:51:37,440 --> 00:51:39,960
Speaker 12: and he will go down in the annals of Iranan

741
00:51:40,040 --> 00:51:43,320
Speaker 12: history as the most celebrated foreign leader that changed the

742
00:51:43,400 --> 00:51:45,680
Speaker 12: Bowl game and changed the world as a result.

743
00:51:46,480 --> 00:51:52,200
Speaker 11: In January, President Trump said this about you quote. He

744
00:51:52,280 --> 00:51:55,920
Speaker 11: seems very nice, but I don't know how he'd play

745
00:51:56,160 --> 00:51:59,160
Speaker 11: within his own country. I don't know whether or not

746
00:51:59,239 --> 00:52:03,320
Speaker 11: his country would accept his leadership, And certainly if they would,

747
00:52:03,400 --> 00:52:07,520
Speaker 11: that would be fine with me. You don't seem to

748
00:52:07,600 --> 00:52:10,400
Speaker 11: have President Trump's wholehearted support.

749
00:52:11,120 --> 00:52:13,160
Speaker 12: Well, first of all, I don't think that somebody in

750
00:52:13,160 --> 00:52:17,239
Speaker 12: my position will ever expect to have an official endorsement

751
00:52:17,239 --> 00:52:19,840
Speaker 12: of a foreign government or a foreign leader. What I

752
00:52:19,920 --> 00:52:23,200
Speaker 12: do know now is that millions of Iranians inside Iran

753
00:52:23,239 --> 00:52:26,200
Speaker 12: and outside of Iran I calling my name, that recognize

754
00:52:26,320 --> 00:52:29,839
Speaker 12: in me the person uniquely taste to play a role

755
00:52:29,880 --> 00:52:33,799
Speaker 12: of transitional leadership, not running for office, because that's not

756
00:52:33,840 --> 00:52:36,960
Speaker 12: what I'm doing, but to be abridged to that destiny.

757
00:52:37,680 --> 00:52:39,680
Speaker 1: And that's what he says he wants to lead around

758
00:52:40,080 --> 00:52:42,000
Speaker 1: in a transition to democracy.

759
00:52:42,120 --> 00:52:47,080
Speaker 11: Number twenty seven, Prince Raiser Polby told us he wants

760
00:52:47,120 --> 00:52:51,439
Speaker 11: to lead Iran in a transition to democracy. You don't

761
00:52:51,440 --> 00:52:52,040
Speaker 11: want to be king.

762
00:52:52,440 --> 00:52:55,600
Speaker 12: I'm not running for office.

763
00:52:55,840 --> 00:52:56,160
Speaker 9: I'm not.

764
00:52:57,280 --> 00:53:01,200
Speaker 11: Are you saying in this interview that you wouldn't lead Iran.

765
00:53:01,840 --> 00:53:02,719
Speaker 1: That's a different thing.

766
00:53:02,920 --> 00:53:06,160
Speaker 12: They trust me as the transitional leader, not as the

767
00:53:06,200 --> 00:53:10,640
Speaker 12: future king or future president or future whatever. I'm totally

768
00:53:10,680 --> 00:53:13,120
Speaker 12: focused on my mission in life, which is let me

769
00:53:13,200 --> 00:53:15,040
Speaker 12: bring the country to a point that they can make

770
00:53:15,040 --> 00:53:15,800
Speaker 12: that free choice.

771
00:53:15,920 --> 00:53:16,960
Speaker 2: That would be enough for me.

772
00:53:17,080 --> 00:53:19,240
Speaker 12: Having submission accomplished.

773
00:53:18,880 --> 00:53:20,480
Speaker 11: You imagine peace with Israel.

774
00:53:21,280 --> 00:53:26,520
Speaker 12: Of course, in modern history, Iran actually gave refuge to

775
00:53:26,680 --> 00:53:29,719
Speaker 12: Jews that were escaping the Nazis during the Second World War,

776
00:53:30,120 --> 00:53:34,719
Speaker 12: giving them refuge and sanctuary in Iran. The strategic importance

777
00:53:34,760 --> 00:53:37,000
Speaker 12: of having a partnership with Israeli is critical.

778
00:53:37,600 --> 00:53:41,520
Speaker 11: What are the principles on which you would build a

779
00:53:41,600 --> 00:53:42,200
Speaker 11: new Iran?

780
00:53:42,840 --> 00:53:47,400
Speaker 12: I think what today unites us are four core principles

781
00:53:47,440 --> 00:53:50,440
Speaker 12: that I think is the subject of how we can

782
00:53:50,520 --> 00:53:54,640
Speaker 12: work together towards that end. Number one is Iran's territorial integrity.

783
00:53:55,320 --> 00:53:58,000
Speaker 12: Number two is the clear separation of religion from state,

784
00:53:58,040 --> 00:54:00,520
Speaker 12: which is a prerequisite to democracy, and we paid the

785
00:54:00,600 --> 00:54:04,279
Speaker 12: price understanding what it means to live under a religious dictatorship.

786
00:54:04,840 --> 00:54:07,680
Speaker 12: Number three is, of course equality of all citizens under

787
00:54:07,719 --> 00:54:11,760
Speaker 12: the law and individual liberties, and most importantly, the process

788
00:54:11,760 --> 00:54:15,160
Speaker 12: of democratic process to allow the people to elect and

789
00:54:15,200 --> 00:54:17,600
Speaker 12: decide what the future system of governance should be.

790
00:54:18,080 --> 00:54:21,719
Speaker 11: What would happen to the nuclear weapons program?

791
00:54:22,280 --> 00:54:24,960
Speaker 12: I think it should be totally dismantled. I don't think

792
00:54:24,960 --> 00:54:28,680
Speaker 12: Iran has any need to pursue a military or weaponizing

793
00:54:28,760 --> 00:54:30,720
Speaker 12: of the nuclear program.

794
00:54:31,440 --> 00:54:33,680
Speaker 1: Over the years, I've had a lot of conversation with

795
00:54:34,239 --> 00:54:37,239
Speaker 1: Tom saw who's still with us, about Iran and the

796
00:54:37,400 --> 00:54:40,479
Speaker 1: threat that I ran postes not just two is real,

797
00:54:41,239 --> 00:54:42,720
Speaker 1: not just to the Middle East, but to the world,

798
00:54:44,360 --> 00:54:48,280
Speaker 1: and he said over and over again, he is dumbfounded

799
00:54:49,360 --> 00:54:52,840
Speaker 1: that the world is putting up with us given their blatant,

800
00:54:53,280 --> 00:54:58,040
Speaker 1: blatant threats. This is twenty ten, Tom, soall number twenty two.

801
00:54:59,320 --> 00:55:01,920
Speaker 13: You mentioned in this smantling America such a point in

802
00:55:02,000 --> 00:55:02,760
Speaker 13: foreign policy.

803
00:55:02,840 --> 00:55:03,719
Speaker 11: Let me quote you, Tom.

804
00:55:03,800 --> 00:55:07,600
Speaker 13: Iran is advancing step by step toward nuclear weapons while

805
00:55:07,600 --> 00:55:10,400
Speaker 13: the Europeans wring their hands in the United Nations engages

806
00:55:10,480 --> 00:55:15,360
Speaker 13: in leisurely discussion. When Osama bin Laden has nuclear weapons,

807
00:55:15,440 --> 00:55:19,080
Speaker 13: the choice will be between knuckling under and watching American

808
00:55:19,080 --> 00:55:22,360
Speaker 13: cities blasted off the face of the earth. That is

809
00:55:22,400 --> 00:55:27,919
Speaker 13: the point of no return, and we are drifting toward it. Yeah,

810
00:55:28,400 --> 00:55:31,000
Speaker 13: nothing you've seen since you wrote that causes you to

811
00:55:31,160 --> 00:55:33,120
Speaker 13: reconsider or no future views.

812
00:55:33,360 --> 00:55:33,400
Speaker 3: No.

813
00:55:33,920 --> 00:55:36,560
Speaker 14: I was a palled earlier this year when the I

814
00:55:36,600 --> 00:55:39,320
Speaker 14: think it was Gates or someone else in the Pentagon

815
00:55:39,800 --> 00:55:43,480
Speaker 14: elaked the fact that there were no contingency military plans

816
00:55:43,760 --> 00:55:47,600
Speaker 14: of stopping Iran from getting nuclear weapons. And now recently

817
00:55:48,120 --> 00:55:50,680
Speaker 14: there have been some talk that there are now plans.

818
00:55:51,040 --> 00:55:52,960
Speaker 14: Now I have no idea whether that means that there

819
00:55:53,000 --> 00:55:55,400
Speaker 14: really are plans, or whether they see an election coming

820
00:55:55,600 --> 00:55:58,320
Speaker 14: and they'd better create the impression that they have wall plans,

821
00:55:58,520 --> 00:56:02,160
Speaker 14: because they've covered themselves well, because they have international conferences

822
00:56:02,200 --> 00:56:05,719
Speaker 14: over Iran, they have resolutions in the these are these

823
00:56:05,760 --> 00:56:08,000
Speaker 14: are what I call elaborate ways of doing nothing.

824
00:56:08,239 --> 00:56:09,839
Speaker 13: Let me ask you this. Do you consider it, then,

825
00:56:09,920 --> 00:56:12,719
Speaker 13: the duty of the president of the United States to

826
00:56:12,880 --> 00:56:15,680
Speaker 13: prevent Iran from gaining that's clear to you.

827
00:56:16,000 --> 00:56:16,960
Speaker 2: I don't.

828
00:56:16,960 --> 00:56:20,080
Speaker 14: I don't know what earthly chance we have, Well, the

829
00:56:20,120 --> 00:56:23,560
Speaker 14: Western world has once the Iran has those weapons, you know.

830
00:56:23,640 --> 00:56:26,919
Speaker 13: It's what about this notion of the deterrence. It worked

831
00:56:26,960 --> 00:56:27,799
Speaker 13: during the Cold War?

832
00:56:27,960 --> 00:56:31,160
Speaker 14: Yeah, the the uh the Russians did not want us

833
00:56:31,200 --> 00:56:34,759
Speaker 14: to blast Moscow off the map. The Iranians have said themselves,

834
00:56:34,880 --> 00:56:38,640
Speaker 14: going back to Ayatola Komani, that theyre that their top

835
00:56:38,719 --> 00:56:42,239
Speaker 14: priority is not in Iran but Allah. And so if

836
00:56:42,280 --> 00:56:44,600
Speaker 14: they get into a war in which Iran is knocked out,

837
00:56:44,920 --> 00:56:48,479
Speaker 14: but they then strike a blow for Allah, they're they're, they're, they're,

838
00:56:48,560 --> 00:56:49,640
Speaker 14: they're they're happy with that.

839
00:56:50,640 --> 00:56:53,960
Speaker 13: And failing any serious signs that the United States would attack,

840
00:56:54,600 --> 00:56:56,719
Speaker 13: would you say that it's the duty of the Prime

841
00:56:56,719 --> 00:56:59,320
Speaker 13: Minister of Israel and his cabinet to order an attack.

842
00:56:59,680 --> 00:57:04,000
Speaker 14: Oh? Absolutely, it's thing of how pathetic this is that

843
00:57:04,680 --> 00:57:07,000
Speaker 14: the fate of the United States of America would be

844
00:57:07,040 --> 00:57:09,000
Speaker 14: in the hands of a country smaller than Lake Michigan.

845
00:57:10,400 --> 00:57:15,759
Speaker 1: That was sixteen years ago. We come back and I'll

846
00:57:15,800 --> 00:57:19,880
Speaker 1: tell you what Thomsill said thirteen years ago about the

847
00:57:19,880 --> 00:57:28,400
Speaker 1: same problem. It was interesting watching the President give a

848
00:57:28,480 --> 00:57:33,560
Speaker 1: Presidential Medal of Freedom to three service members, two of

849
00:57:33,600 --> 00:57:37,760
Speaker 1: whom I believe were no longer with us, and I

850
00:57:37,800 --> 00:57:41,320
Speaker 1: clicked on to see if ms NOW covered it, and

851
00:57:41,360 --> 00:57:43,960
Speaker 1: I was surprised that they did. And they clicked on

852
00:57:43,960 --> 00:57:46,080
Speaker 1: it to CNN to see if they covered it, and

853
00:57:46,120 --> 00:57:47,840
Speaker 1: I was surprised that they did. Till all three of

854
00:57:47,840 --> 00:57:53,560
Speaker 1: the major cable channels News Max, Fox, and CNN or

855
00:57:53,600 --> 00:57:59,600
Speaker 1: four MSNBC recovering this. I don't know that they would

856
00:57:59,600 --> 00:58:03,160
Speaker 1: have done this before. I don't know that they would

857
00:58:03,160 --> 00:58:06,160
Speaker 1: have done this before. The President's Stay of the Union

858
00:58:06,160 --> 00:58:08,280
Speaker 1: speech where he called him out for not standing up

859
00:58:08,320 --> 00:58:16,960
Speaker 1: for America. First President also talked movingly about the valor

860
00:58:17,080 --> 00:58:20,520
Speaker 1: and courage of one of these recipients of the Congressional

861
00:58:20,600 --> 00:58:23,040
Speaker 1: of the Presidential Medal of Freedom. All of this and

862
00:58:23,080 --> 00:58:25,400
Speaker 1: more Triple eight ninety seven one s a G. E.

863
00:58:25,520 --> 00:58:37,880
Speaker 1: I'm Larry Yielder, Triple eight ninety seven one s A G. E.

864
00:58:38,000 --> 00:58:40,600
Speaker 1: Triple eight ninety seven, one seven two fourty three, Larry Elders,

865
00:58:40,600 --> 00:58:43,160
Speaker 1: Salem News Channel. We'll start out the show with my

866
00:58:43,280 --> 00:58:46,320
Speaker 1: giving you the latest episode of Trump arrangement syndrome, probably

867
00:58:46,320 --> 00:58:50,280
Speaker 1: the most egregious one I've ever seen personally talking to

868
00:58:50,320 --> 00:58:53,400
Speaker 1: a neighbor. Neighbor introduced me to a friend who was

869
00:58:53,520 --> 00:58:58,120
Speaker 1: visiting from Arizona. So I said to her, Oh, what's

870
00:58:58,160 --> 00:59:01,880
Speaker 1: your take on what happened to now see Guthrie? And

871
00:59:01,960 --> 00:59:05,040
Speaker 1: she said, with a straight face, I think Trump has

872
00:59:05,080 --> 00:59:07,680
Speaker 1: something to do with her disappearance. I thought she was joking.

873
00:59:09,720 --> 00:59:12,240
Speaker 1: I said, you're joking. She said, no, I'm not. When

874
00:59:12,240 --> 00:59:16,760
Speaker 1: Trump said that he's gonna use whatever resources we have

875
00:59:16,880 --> 00:59:18,360
Speaker 1: in order to get to the bottom of it, I

876
00:59:18,440 --> 00:59:21,200
Speaker 1: knew that he had something to do with her disappearance. Honestly,

877
00:59:23,240 --> 00:59:25,800
Speaker 1: here's another example, this one on CNN. Listen to this

878
00:59:25,840 --> 00:59:31,240
Speaker 1: panelist number thirteen. It's like I am called a domestic

879
00:59:31,320 --> 00:59:33,080
Speaker 1: terrorist constantly by my government.

880
00:59:33,720 --> 00:59:35,760
Speaker 15: My president just stood at the State of the Union

881
00:59:35,800 --> 00:59:38,840
Speaker 15: and said the Democrats are evil monsters who should be killed.

882
00:59:39,040 --> 00:59:42,200
Speaker 1: If that person. No, the president did not wait a minute.

883
00:59:42,520 --> 00:59:44,240
Speaker 13: Okay, he said, I will be accurate.

884
00:59:45,480 --> 00:59:47,680
Speaker 2: Killed and I will be accurate.

885
00:59:48,000 --> 00:59:48,400
Speaker 16: I will be.

886
00:59:50,160 --> 00:59:53,680
Speaker 17: Okay, honest, I like you wait to let me, let

887
00:59:53,680 --> 00:59:54,080
Speaker 17: me give it.

888
00:59:54,120 --> 00:59:58,200
Speaker 1: Okay, to my points, an opportunity, correct, the American government

889
00:59:58,800 --> 00:59:59,360
Speaker 1: is all that.

890
00:59:59,520 --> 00:59:59,960
Speaker 16: He didn't.

891
01:00:00,080 --> 01:00:02,720
Speaker 3: He did not say he said we were the enemy

892
01:00:02,840 --> 01:00:03,840
Speaker 3: and we were terrible.

893
01:00:03,880 --> 01:00:04,440
Speaker 2: Would you say that?

894
01:00:04,440 --> 01:00:04,920
Speaker 8: That is there?

895
01:00:05,000 --> 01:00:06,920
Speaker 7: He did say he looked at the Democrats said these

896
01:00:06,920 --> 01:00:07,560
Speaker 7: people are crazy.

897
01:00:07,600 --> 01:00:13,360
Speaker 1: But he said, yeah, but he's right.

898
01:00:15,600 --> 01:00:17,040
Speaker 7: I was being hyperbolic, and.

899
01:00:17,480 --> 01:00:18,880
Speaker 1: You have to be accurate and not hyperbolic.

900
01:00:18,920 --> 01:00:22,000
Speaker 7: Go ahead and both okay, we have to okay, point.

901
01:00:21,920 --> 01:00:25,560
Speaker 1: I was being hyperbolic, and I apologize. My president just

902
01:00:25,600 --> 01:00:27,880
Speaker 1: stood up there and said Democrats were evil monsters and

903
01:00:27,920 --> 01:00:31,040
Speaker 1: they should be destroyed. I was being hyperbolic, and I apologize.

904
01:00:31,880 --> 01:00:35,920
Speaker 1: And this is tom So thirteen years ago, number twenty three.

905
01:00:36,240 --> 01:00:39,200
Speaker 14: And is getting nuclear weapons, and people don't seem to

906
01:00:39,280 --> 01:00:40,480
Speaker 14: understand what that means.

907
01:00:41,400 --> 01:00:41,600
Speaker 16: Uh.

908
01:00:41,640 --> 01:00:44,840
Speaker 14: The Japanese were a lot in nineteen forty five, were

909
01:00:44,880 --> 01:00:47,560
Speaker 14: a lot tougher than we are today, and yet it

910
01:00:47,600 --> 01:00:50,080
Speaker 14: took only two nuclear weapons to get them to surrender.

911
01:00:50,960 --> 01:00:53,680
Speaker 14: So people are saying, you know, Ron may have only

912
01:00:53,720 --> 01:00:57,440
Speaker 14: a couple of nuclear bombs, that's all they need. If

913
01:00:57,520 --> 01:01:00,880
Speaker 14: they're willing to die and we're not, then there's nothing

914
01:01:00,880 --> 01:01:01,840
Speaker 14: short or surrendered.

915
01:01:02,200 --> 01:01:04,200
Speaker 18: So what do you think we should do about Iran?

916
01:01:04,840 --> 01:01:06,520
Speaker 14: Stop them from getting nuclear weapons?

917
01:01:07,400 --> 01:01:12,080
Speaker 18: And that would mean attacking them or acquiescing in an

918
01:01:12,160 --> 01:01:13,000
Speaker 18: Israeli attack.

919
01:01:14,040 --> 01:01:18,880
Speaker 14: Yeah, it's sad that it's a question of acquiescing in

920
01:01:18,880 --> 01:01:24,480
Speaker 14: an Israeli attack. There have been indications that Saudi Arabia

921
01:01:24,520 --> 01:01:27,320
Speaker 14: would be quite willing to have Israeli planes fly over

922
01:01:27,360 --> 01:01:31,720
Speaker 14: there at night and bomb Iran and then of course

923
01:01:32,040 --> 01:01:36,160
Speaker 14: larger protests with the United Nations in the morning. But

924
01:01:36,760 --> 01:01:39,200
Speaker 14: the very fact that they have to fly over Irraq,

925
01:01:39,360 --> 01:01:44,080
Speaker 14: fly around Iraq because there are American fighter planes there

926
01:01:44,120 --> 01:01:47,120
Speaker 14: who might shoot down the Israeli planes. I mean, that

927
01:01:47,320 --> 01:01:49,560
Speaker 14: really does show where we've come.

928
01:01:50,440 --> 01:01:54,600
Speaker 18: You know, a lot of people recognize the threat of Iran,

929
01:01:54,640 --> 01:01:56,280
Speaker 18: but you're actually one of the few people that I've

930
01:01:56,320 --> 01:01:58,880
Speaker 18: talked to who really see it as a kind of

931
01:01:59,200 --> 01:02:02,880
Speaker 18: you know, the these days is existential threat to the

932
01:02:02,960 --> 01:02:05,240
Speaker 18: United States. It really changes our existence.

933
01:02:05,560 --> 01:02:08,720
Speaker 14: Oh, absolutely, Going all the way back to the Ayatola

934
01:02:08,760 --> 01:02:13,080
Speaker 14: Homni so that his phrase loyalty is not to Iran,

935
01:02:13,600 --> 01:02:17,680
Speaker 14: it's to Allah. And so if you know we can't

936
01:02:17,680 --> 01:02:19,880
Speaker 14: deter them, if with the threat that will come in

937
01:02:19,920 --> 01:02:23,880
Speaker 14: and destroy a whole lot of innocent Iranians, they don't care.

938
01:02:24,200 --> 01:02:26,800
Speaker 14: I mean, you can't deter suicide bombers.

939
01:02:26,960 --> 01:02:28,040
Speaker 1: So deterrence worked.

940
01:02:28,600 --> 01:02:31,040
Speaker 18: We're here at the Hoover Institution, which is home to

941
01:02:31,080 --> 01:02:34,560
Speaker 18: a lot of people who were architects of the deterrence policy.

942
01:02:34,880 --> 01:02:37,080
Speaker 1: Deterrence worked during the Cold War. But you don't think

943
01:02:37,120 --> 01:02:37,960
Speaker 1: it will work today.

944
01:02:38,120 --> 01:02:42,280
Speaker 14: No, because you can't deter suicidal people. You'll either stop

945
01:02:42,320 --> 01:02:43,600
Speaker 14: them or you don't stop them.

946
01:02:43,720 --> 01:02:47,400
Speaker 18: Do you think the administration is kind of distracted by

947
01:02:47,400 --> 01:02:50,240
Speaker 18: what's going on on the economic side and not paying

948
01:02:50,320 --> 01:02:52,960
Speaker 18: enough attention to Iran or do you think there's something

949
01:02:52,960 --> 01:02:53,880
Speaker 18: more basic going on?

950
01:02:54,000 --> 01:02:57,080
Speaker 14: No, I don't think they ever intended to do anything

951
01:02:57,240 --> 01:03:00,960
Speaker 14: serious to stop Iran. What they what they're what they

952
01:03:01,240 --> 01:03:04,160
Speaker 14: are doing, UH is a lot of charades at the

953
01:03:04,240 --> 01:03:07,920
Speaker 14: United Nations, which follows the whole years we've had all

954
01:03:08,000 --> 01:03:10,880
Speaker 14: kinds of charades of the United Nations, UH, and at

955
01:03:10,920 --> 01:03:13,439
Speaker 14: the League of Nations before that, for the very same

956
01:03:13,480 --> 01:03:16,200
Speaker 14: purpose of giving the impression that you're doing something when

957
01:03:16,240 --> 01:03:17,080
Speaker 14: you're not doing a thing.

958
01:03:17,640 --> 01:03:21,240
Speaker 1: Now, this, of course, was during the Obama administration. Obama

959
01:03:21,320 --> 01:03:24,280
Speaker 1: did the Iran deal, and by the way, the architect

960
01:03:24,320 --> 01:03:27,160
Speaker 1: of that deal, Ben Roads, the Deputy National Security Advisor,

961
01:03:28,520 --> 01:03:30,320
Speaker 1: gave an interview to The New York Times after he

962
01:03:30,360 --> 01:03:35,280
Speaker 1: had concluded this deal and said he sold it based

963
01:03:35,320 --> 01:03:38,360
Speaker 1: upon a false narrative, a narrative that he admitted was false.

964
01:03:38,760 --> 01:03:42,120
Speaker 1: That there's this big battle between the moderate Iatolas and

965
01:03:42,200 --> 01:03:46,160
Speaker 1: the hard liners, and if we can do this nuclear

966
01:03:46,480 --> 01:03:49,240
Speaker 1: Iran deal, we'll give more power to the moderates.

967
01:03:49,240 --> 01:03:49,640
Speaker 5: Ha ha ha.

968
01:03:50,080 --> 01:03:54,400
Speaker 1: They're all hardliner, he said. Republicans wanted to have congressional

969
01:03:54,400 --> 01:03:57,720
Speaker 1: hearings after that article came out, and the Obama administration

970
01:03:57,760 --> 01:04:02,040
Speaker 1: refused to make him available. Of course, now, as Operation

971
01:04:02,120 --> 01:04:05,640
Speaker 1: Epic Fury intensifies, the world braces for what comes next.

972
01:04:06,320 --> 01:04:09,640
Speaker 1: In the Holy Land, red alert sirens fill the air sirens.

973
01:04:09,640 --> 01:04:12,280
Speaker 1: They give you fifteen seconds to reach the nearest bomb shelter.

974
01:04:13,000 --> 01:04:16,160
Speaker 1: Situation is serious, that right is real. In times like this,

975
01:04:16,280 --> 01:04:19,640
Speaker 1: Freedom and faith aren't just abstract ideas. They are what

976
01:04:19,680 --> 01:04:22,840
Speaker 1: we depend upon. And in times like this, the International

977
01:04:22,840 --> 01:04:25,920
Speaker 1: Fellowship of Christians and Jews is on the ground, preparing

978
01:04:26,040 --> 01:04:29,880
Speaker 1: large scale distributions of life saving food, first aid, and

979
01:04:29,960 --> 01:04:35,160
Speaker 1: emergency essentials for security personnel, while helping ensure hospitals, emergency rooms,

980
01:04:35,200 --> 01:04:39,520
Speaker 1: and shelters are stocked with critical medical supplies. Israel's most vulnerable,

981
01:04:39,600 --> 01:04:43,200
Speaker 1: the sick, the elderly, children and families depend on the Fellowship,

982
01:04:44,600 --> 01:04:46,840
Speaker 1: and the people of the Holy Land depend on your

Speaker 1: Larry Elder. We are Salem News Channel watching the coverage.

989
01:05:20,600 --> 01:05:25,439
Speaker 1: CNN focused more on did Trump violate the War Powers Act.

990
01:05:28,680 --> 01:05:35,080
Speaker 1: Fox News interviewed a bunch of Persians who were ecstatic

991
01:05:35,280 --> 01:05:39,920
Speaker 1: that finally, finally, somebody did something, you know, during the

992
01:05:39,920 --> 01:05:45,200
Speaker 1: Obama administration, they negotiated the Iran deal. Right, the deal

993
01:05:45,280 --> 01:05:53,360
Speaker 1: was consummated, and then CBS went to a mosque in

994
01:05:53,440 --> 01:05:57,400
Speaker 1: Iran to see if there's gonna be any difference in

995
01:05:57,440 --> 01:06:03,800
Speaker 1: their attitude towards America, and they were still channing death

996
01:06:03,960 --> 01:06:10,760
Speaker 1: to America. But note the way CBS characterized it number eighteen.

997
01:06:11,120 --> 01:06:13,200
Speaker 20: Well, for Israel and for the rest of the world

998
01:06:13,240 --> 01:06:16,800
Speaker 20: that matter, these negotiations were always about preventing Iran from

999
01:06:16,840 --> 01:06:20,400
Speaker 20: developing nuclear weapons, but for the Iranians it was something

1000
01:06:20,480 --> 01:06:23,320
Speaker 20: quite different. They were all about ending its isolation.

1001
01:06:25,680 --> 01:06:31,200
Speaker 21: After marathon negotiations, Iran's Foreign Minister Jowad Zarif, arrived home Ahro,

1002
01:06:32,000 --> 01:06:34,800
Speaker 21: especially among the young who hope the nuclear deal will

1003
01:06:34,800 --> 01:06:38,880
Speaker 21: bring their country in from the cold. At Friday prayers

1004
01:06:38,920 --> 01:06:41,560
Speaker 21: there was the usual chant of death to America, but

1005
01:06:41,720 --> 01:06:46,360
Speaker 21: more habit than conviction. The sermon by Senior Ayatola Casani

1006
01:06:46,400 --> 01:06:48,040
Speaker 21: made it clear that Iran's lead.

1007
01:06:48,080 --> 01:06:51,360
Speaker 1: Do you hear that? But more habit than conviction. How

1008
01:06:51,400 --> 01:06:55,960
Speaker 1: do you know? You know in Mars they were still

1009
01:06:56,040 --> 01:06:59,040
Speaker 1: channing death to America, but more out of habit rather

1010
01:06:59,080 --> 01:06:59,760
Speaker 1: than conviction.

1011
01:07:00,240 --> 01:07:01,680
Speaker 2: They didn't mean it.

1012
01:07:03,200 --> 01:07:04,680
Speaker 1: By the way, we're coming to you from the Relief

1016
01:07:14,360 --> 01:07:15,360
Speaker 1: you're in the malarial to show.

1017
01:07:17,600 --> 01:07:21,120
Speaker 22: First off, mister elders. I would like to congratulate you,

1018
01:07:21,200 --> 01:07:24,480
Speaker 22: or actually commend you on your patience with that first

1019
01:07:24,560 --> 01:07:28,640
Speaker 22: collar you had. They made my head explode. But you

1020
01:07:28,720 --> 01:07:31,240
Speaker 22: are so calm, and you tried to educate him and

1021
01:07:31,320 --> 01:07:35,000
Speaker 22: teach him, and he just kept raging. Anyway, I commend you,

1022
01:07:35,040 --> 01:07:38,040
Speaker 22: because my head blew off the top. Okay. I wanted

1023
01:07:38,080 --> 01:07:41,400
Speaker 22: to ask you a serious question though. Do you do

1024
01:07:41,480 --> 01:07:45,040
Speaker 22: you think that this I Ran war is going to

1025
01:07:45,080 --> 01:07:47,320
Speaker 22: be the beginning of a World War three? Or do

1026
01:07:47,360 --> 01:07:50,160
Speaker 22: you think it's going to be a temporary battle.

1027
01:07:51,080 --> 01:07:54,680
Speaker 1: I think it's going to be temporary. I think that

1028
01:07:56,400 --> 01:08:01,320
Speaker 1: already the Israelis and Americans have gained air superiority. Something

1029
01:08:01,480 --> 01:08:04,240
Speaker 1: like half of their nuclear missile sites have been destroyed.

1030
01:08:05,120 --> 01:08:09,280
Speaker 1: And Iran has done something that I didn't think was

1031
01:08:09,320 --> 01:08:12,560
Speaker 1: going to be possible. They've united the Gulf States against Iran.

1032
01:08:12,840 --> 01:08:18,000
Speaker 1: Iran has been shooting down or blasting targets in Dubai

1033
01:08:18,080 --> 01:08:20,880
Speaker 1: and other places, and so all these Gulf countries that

1034
01:08:20,920 --> 01:08:23,000
Speaker 1: we're going to stay out of this have now gotten involved.

1035
01:08:23,360 --> 01:08:27,840
Speaker 1: So there their economies on its back. Inflation is going

1036
01:08:27,880 --> 01:08:30,160
Speaker 1: at forty percent a year. Imagine you know, we got

1037
01:08:30,200 --> 01:08:32,439
Speaker 1: two and a half percent. We're unhappy. They've got forty

1038
01:08:32,479 --> 01:08:37,120
Speaker 1: percent per year high unemployment, very very deeply unpopular government.

1039
01:08:37,160 --> 01:08:39,240
Speaker 1: So I don't think it's going to take that much time.

1040
01:08:39,920 --> 01:08:42,760
Speaker 1: How it shapes out, who ends up running it, what

1041
01:08:42,880 --> 01:08:45,080
Speaker 1: kind of government they have, I have no idea. All

1042
01:08:45,080 --> 01:08:46,519
Speaker 1: I know is that whatever they have is going to

1043
01:08:46,520 --> 01:08:47,760
Speaker 1: be better than what we have right now.

1044
01:08:50,240 --> 01:08:50,840
Speaker 9: Thanks you, sir.

1045
01:08:51,360 --> 01:08:51,559
Speaker 8: You know.

1046
01:08:51,640 --> 01:08:53,640
Speaker 1: And the main and the main thing, Betsy, is this

1047
01:08:53,720 --> 01:08:58,719
Speaker 1: threat of a nuclear armed regime that shouts death to America,

1048
01:08:58,800 --> 01:09:02,479
Speaker 1: Death to America, and believe that dying is actually a promotion.

1049
01:09:04,320 --> 01:09:06,479
Speaker 1: I think it was General Patten who said, the object

1050
01:09:06,560 --> 01:09:08,200
Speaker 1: of war is not to die for your country. The

1051
01:09:08,200 --> 01:09:10,599
Speaker 1: object of war is to get the other, poor sol

1052
01:09:10,640 --> 01:09:12,680
Speaker 1: b to die for his country. But when the other

1053
01:09:12,720 --> 01:09:15,920
Speaker 1: poor SOLB wants to die and believe that will be

1054
01:09:15,960 --> 01:09:20,439
Speaker 1: a promotion to heaven and seventy two brown eyed version,

1055
01:09:20,520 --> 01:09:23,120
Speaker 1: This is a whole different person that you're dealing with.

1056
01:09:24,880 --> 01:09:28,800
Speaker 1: And these people are fanatics the idea. I mean, how

1057
01:09:28,840 --> 01:09:33,920
Speaker 1: many Iranians have been killed in the streets. I've heard

1058
01:09:33,960 --> 01:09:37,400
Speaker 1: as high as thirty thousand, maybe even more of their

1059
01:09:37,439 --> 01:09:41,800
Speaker 1: own people, So imagine what they would do to people

1060
01:09:41,840 --> 01:09:45,360
Speaker 1: they perceive to be their enemies. Thirty thousand of their

1061
01:09:45,439 --> 01:09:52,960
Speaker 1: own people have been killed, and Iran is what ninety

1062
01:09:52,960 --> 01:09:57,720
Speaker 1: million people, So do adjust that for our size of

1063
01:09:57,720 --> 01:10:03,479
Speaker 1: our country. Multiply that time three maybe four. Can you

1064
01:10:03,479 --> 01:10:05,920
Speaker 1: imagine if one hundred and twenty thousand Americans were killed

1065
01:10:06,320 --> 01:10:11,320
Speaker 1: by our government? Can you just imagine that that's essentially

1066
01:10:11,320 --> 01:10:16,080
Speaker 1: what just happened. And these people should be allowed to

1067
01:10:16,080 --> 01:10:19,280
Speaker 1: get a nuke, And this stupid I Ran deal that

1068
01:10:19,320 --> 01:10:22,400
Speaker 1: the Obama administration negotiated would have given them a glidepath

1069
01:10:22,439 --> 01:10:25,599
Speaker 1: to eventually get one, not right away, but eventually get

1070
01:10:25,600 --> 01:10:30,960
Speaker 1: one for what end. You heard the son of the

1071
01:10:31,080 --> 01:10:34,640
Speaker 1: Shaw say there's no neat reason economically for Iran to

1072
01:10:34,680 --> 01:10:41,280
Speaker 1: have nuclear power. Richmond bombs none. So do I believe

1073
01:10:41,360 --> 01:10:44,040
Speaker 1: that it's going to be short? I do. I could

1074
01:10:44,040 --> 01:10:48,040
Speaker 1: be wrong. You never know. Someone once said, when you

1075
01:10:48,080 --> 01:10:52,960
Speaker 1: start a war, it's like opening up a door and

1076
01:10:53,080 --> 01:10:55,840
Speaker 1: entering a dark room. Many things can go wrong and

1077
01:10:55,880 --> 01:10:58,599
Speaker 1: will go wrong. Already we've had some of our own

1078
01:10:58,600 --> 01:11:02,840
Speaker 1: planes shot down by the Koi friendly fire, So you

1079
01:11:02,920 --> 01:11:06,080
Speaker 1: never know what's going to happen. But I pretty certain

1080
01:11:06,120 --> 01:11:10,600
Speaker 1: what would happen if the fanatics in Iran had a

1081
01:11:10,680 --> 01:11:15,200
Speaker 1: nuclear bomb, and you heard Tom Soule say, it's not

1082
01:11:15,240 --> 01:11:17,559
Speaker 1: like they need to have a lot of them. We

1083
01:11:17,680 --> 01:11:23,280
Speaker 1: have European allies who have weak economies. I talked last

1084
01:11:23,280 --> 01:11:26,720
Speaker 1: week about our growth compared to their growth. Their military

1085
01:11:26,800 --> 01:11:33,640
Speaker 1: is weak. They rely on us. And Trump did this

1086
01:11:33,680 --> 01:11:38,200
Speaker 1: without the French, did this without the Brits. He no

1087
01:11:38,200 --> 01:11:52,760
Speaker 1: longer considers him to be reliable or even capable. Yeah,

1088
01:11:52,920 --> 01:11:59,800
Speaker 1: these are Persian Americans reacting to the news number thirty nine.

1089
01:12:01,320 --> 01:12:02,320
Speaker 7: Love you Trump.

1090
01:12:03,040 --> 01:12:06,960
Speaker 3: You can't you can't you imagine how you are appreciate

1091
01:12:07,360 --> 01:12:09,240
Speaker 3: our country, our people.

1092
01:12:09,760 --> 01:12:11,120
Speaker 2: I'm really appreciated.

1093
01:12:11,240 --> 01:12:12,040
Speaker 4: We love you.

1094
01:12:12,160 --> 01:12:14,080
Speaker 1: Cank you miss the President Trump.

1095
01:12:14,439 --> 01:12:17,400
Speaker 23: God bless you, God bless America.

1096
01:12:17,640 --> 01:12:22,240
Speaker 2: Thank you, miss their president. Dear miss the President Trump.

1097
01:12:22,360 --> 01:12:23,519
Speaker 4: Trump kill comedy.

1098
01:12:23,680 --> 01:12:24,559
Speaker 20: I'm so happy.

1099
01:12:24,720 --> 01:12:25,439
Speaker 8: Thanks Trump.

1100
01:12:25,520 --> 01:12:26,240
Speaker 2: Thanks Trump.

1101
01:12:26,439 --> 01:12:28,160
Speaker 4: You are the best man in the world.

1102
01:12:28,280 --> 01:12:29,200
Speaker 2: I love you Trump.

1103
01:12:29,280 --> 01:12:31,759
Speaker 23: I want to have a big thanks to President Trump

1104
01:12:31,960 --> 01:12:35,519
Speaker 23: for keeping his promise and freeing people of Iran. That

1105
01:12:35,640 --> 01:12:39,520
Speaker 23: has nothing to do with this government, with this terrorist government.

1106
01:12:42,160 --> 01:12:46,240
Speaker 1: Let me share with you Brian's story from Alabama. He

1107
01:12:46,320 --> 01:12:48,719
Speaker 1: tells us, ever taking relief factor for just three weeks,

1108
01:12:49,160 --> 01:12:51,200
Speaker 1: at least ninety percent of my pain has gone. My

1109
01:12:51,240 --> 01:12:53,639
Speaker 1: pain has started to limit me at work and at home,

1110
01:12:54,200 --> 01:12:56,639
Speaker 1: and now I'm amazed at the relief I've gotten into. Quote.

1111
01:12:56,640 --> 01:12:59,559
Speaker 1: These are Brian's own words, and they speak volumes about

1112
01:12:59,560 --> 01:13:02,240
Speaker 1: what relief can do. I've told you about my buddy Tom,

1113
01:13:02,240 --> 01:13:05,080
Speaker 1: an avid golfer who's out on the course almost every

1114
01:13:05,160 --> 01:13:08,559
Speaker 1: single day. Scratch Golfer says, without Relief Factor, he wouldn't

1115
01:13:08,560 --> 01:13:10,720
Speaker 1: be able to swing freely because of shoulder and back pain.

1116
01:13:11,720 --> 01:13:14,640
Speaker 1: But since taking Relief Factor, he stayed active, comfortable and

1117
01:13:14,720 --> 01:13:17,680
Speaker 1: confident in that swing. That's why I am encouraging you

1118
01:13:17,720 --> 01:13:19,760
Speaker 1: to try a relief factor for yourself and see what

1119
01:13:19,800 --> 01:13:22,599
Speaker 1: it can do. Don't wait if you're dealing with daily pain,

1120
01:13:22,720 --> 01:13:25,800
Speaker 1: launch your own three week quick start nineteen dollars and

1121
01:13:25,920 --> 01:13:28,639

01:13:54,680 --> 01:13:58,599
Speaker 1: Salem News Channel still taking your calls about the strikes

1128
01:13:58,600 --> 01:14:06,320
Speaker 1: against DRAN Operation Epic Fury. We're going to talk about

1129
01:14:06,320 --> 01:14:10,200
Speaker 1: what the Chairman of the Joint Chief said, General Dan

1130
01:14:10,400 --> 01:14:16,080
Speaker 1: so called raising Kine. Also, President Trump gave a Presidential

1131
01:14:16,080 --> 01:14:20,360
Speaker 1: Medal of Freedom to a man named Roddy Edmunds. Wait

1132
01:14:20,439 --> 01:14:23,360
Speaker 1: until you hear what Roddy Edmunds did during World War Two.

1133
01:14:24,960 --> 01:14:27,960
Speaker 1: Tom Cotton, Lindsey Graham, John Fetterman all weighed in on

1134
01:14:28,000 --> 01:14:32,599
Speaker 1: the strikes. All of this in more Triple eight nine

1135
01:14:32,680 --> 01:14:36,320
Speaker 1: seventy one sage. This just end from the Associated Press.

1136
01:14:36,840 --> 01:14:40,000
Speaker 1: Saudi Arabia says US embassy and Riodd has been attacked

1137
01:14:40,000 --> 01:14:43,840
Speaker 1: by two drones causing a quote unquote limited fire. Don't

1138
01:14:43,840 --> 01:14:47,559
Speaker 1: know what limited fire means. And as I was saying,

1139
01:14:47,640 --> 01:14:51,479
Speaker 1: three US fighter jets were accidentally shot down by Kuwaiti

1140
01:14:51,520 --> 01:14:57,240
Speaker 1: Air Defenses friendly fire incident. The crew aboard all three

1141
01:14:57,560 --> 01:15:00,920
Speaker 1: ejected safely and were rescued. According to you Less Central Command,

1142
01:15:04,920 --> 01:15:07,200
Speaker 1: LEO is in Los Angeles. Leo, you and Lario to

1143
01:15:07,240 --> 01:15:08,480
Speaker 1: show thank you for calling.

1144
01:15:10,720 --> 01:15:14,760
Speaker 19: Larry. You are a beacon of light through the Stygian

1145
01:15:15,240 --> 01:15:20,439
Speaker 19: darkness of the Left. It's much appreciated. I want to

1146
01:15:20,439 --> 01:15:24,960
Speaker 19: make a historical analogy when the Russians. When the Third

1147
01:15:24,960 --> 01:15:29,160
Speaker 19: Reiche was falling apart, and the Russians arrived in Berlin,

1148
01:15:29,760 --> 01:15:33,760
Speaker 19: where did they go first. They didn't seek out the politicians,

1149
01:15:33,800 --> 01:15:36,800
Speaker 19: they didn't seek out the ammunitions. They went to the

1150
01:15:36,880 --> 01:15:42,200
Speaker 19: mox Plank Institute of Physics because they knew what the

1151
01:15:42,240 --> 01:15:46,479
Speaker 19: Third Reich would do with a nuclear bomb. They knew that.

1152
01:15:46,880 --> 01:15:50,720
Speaker 19: That'll tell you the import of a historical perspective on

1153
01:15:50,840 --> 01:15:56,280
Speaker 19: President Trump's decision. When the Pacific Theater, when the invasion

1154
01:15:56,400 --> 01:15:59,479
Speaker 19: of Japan was planned, and Truman was told that be

1155
01:15:59,560 --> 01:16:04,599
Speaker 19: a million lost American life, and he was informed of

1156
01:16:04,680 --> 01:16:08,080
Speaker 19: the power of the nuclear bomb, for a good reason,

1157
01:16:08,400 --> 01:16:11,360
Speaker 19: he decided to use the bomb rather than sacrifice those

1158
01:16:11,400 --> 01:16:16,160
Speaker 19: millions of lives. My point is simple. President Trump's decision

1159
01:16:17,320 --> 01:16:22,040
Speaker 19: was thoughtful and based on historical perspective. It's a righteous

1160
01:16:22,080 --> 01:16:25,360
Speaker 19: decision and one which I and many of my college

1161
01:16:25,439 --> 01:16:28,000
Speaker 19: fully support absolutely.

1162
01:16:28,439 --> 01:16:31,760
Speaker 1: And Leo, since you brought this up. We were the

1163
01:16:31,800 --> 01:16:37,080
Speaker 1: sole possessor of the mightiest weapon in history, the atomic bomb,

1164
01:16:37,320 --> 01:16:40,479
Speaker 1: for five years. What do we do with it? Who

1165
01:16:40,560 --> 01:16:43,040
Speaker 1: do we terrorize with it? Who did we threaten with it?

1166
01:16:43,760 --> 01:16:46,479
Speaker 1: Who did we subordinate with it? Can you imagine if

1167
01:16:46,560 --> 01:16:51,320
Speaker 1: Russia or Germany or China had been solely in possession

1168
01:16:51,720 --> 01:16:54,080
Speaker 1: of the mightiest weapon the world had ever seen, what

1169
01:16:54,120 --> 01:16:57,040
Speaker 1: they would have done with it. Yet yet we're despised

1170
01:16:57,040 --> 01:16:59,600
Speaker 1: by much of the world. Even though we showed a

1171
01:16:59,720 --> 01:17:03,240
Speaker 1: maasing restraint, and we could have just toppled everybody, conquered everybody,

1172
01:17:03,479 --> 01:17:04,920
Speaker 1: taken everything, we did nothing.

1173
01:17:07,680 --> 01:17:14,320
Speaker 19: It's it's uh, it's a historically grounded, logical decision. I

1174
01:17:14,439 --> 01:17:16,760
Speaker 19: just I read a lot about World War two and

1175
01:17:16,800 --> 01:17:19,600
Speaker 19: when the when the Russians got to Berlin.

1176
01:17:19,840 --> 01:17:21,880
Speaker 1: Ed, if we're gonna have to leave it there, we

1177
01:17:21,880 --> 01:17:23,760
Speaker 1: will thank you for calling. I appreciated Triple eight nine

Speaker 1: G E triple eight nine seven one seven two four three.

1183
01:17:46,680 --> 01:17:51,240
Speaker 1: I am Larry Elder. We are Salem News Channel. Remember

1184
01:17:51,280 --> 01:17:56,080
Speaker 1: the story that President Trump told about going golfing with

1185
01:17:56,160 --> 01:18:01,400
Speaker 1: his granddaughter and he's in the golf car and she

1186
01:18:01,560 --> 01:18:06,080
Speaker 1: says to him, now that you've been reelected, what do

1187
01:18:06,080 --> 01:18:09,560
Speaker 1: you want to do now? What have you not achieved?

1188
01:18:09,880 --> 01:18:12,720
Speaker 1: Yet and he went, Wow, I did not going to

1189
01:18:12,720 --> 01:18:15,720
Speaker 1: be interviewed like that, and he said something to the

1190
01:18:15,720 --> 01:18:25,160
Speaker 1: effect of, I want to be a great president. Well,

1191
01:18:25,200 --> 01:18:30,240
Speaker 1: in one year, look at what this man has done.

1192
01:18:30,760 --> 01:18:35,839
Speaker 1: Thirty days secured the border. We were told for four years,

1193
01:18:36,160 --> 01:18:38,439
Speaker 1: either that it was secured even though you could look

1194
01:18:38,479 --> 01:18:41,040
Speaker 1: with your own eyes and see millions of people flooding

1195
01:18:41,040 --> 01:18:44,519
Speaker 1: the southern border, or it was as secure as possible

1196
01:18:44,560 --> 01:18:48,960
Speaker 1: given the absence of comprehensive immigration reform. We haven't had

1197
01:18:49,000 --> 01:18:54,839
Speaker 1: any comprehensive immigration reform. It was secured in thirty days. Stunning.

1198
01:18:57,240 --> 01:19:01,719
Speaker 1: He negotiated the release of the hostages and means. Stunning,

1199
01:19:03,520 --> 01:19:07,160
Speaker 1: pressured our native allies to spend five percent of their

1200
01:19:07,439 --> 01:19:14,439
Speaker 1: GDP on defense. Stunning got the so called Big Beautiful

1201
01:19:14,479 --> 01:19:16,920
Speaker 1: Bill passed when a lot of people thought it should

1202
01:19:16,920 --> 01:19:18,639
Speaker 1: be broken up in a bunch of different parts because

1203
01:19:18,680 --> 01:19:21,320
Speaker 1: it's just too massive to be passed all at once

1204
01:19:21,360 --> 01:19:24,200
Speaker 1: and get all the Republicans to unite to support it.

1205
01:19:24,240 --> 01:19:33,560
Speaker 1: But they did. Stunning. Gas prices obviously because of the

1206
01:19:33,600 --> 01:19:37,120
Speaker 1: clogging of the Strait of Hormus by the Iranians. The

1207
01:19:37,200 --> 01:19:42,880
Speaker 1: price of oil has gone up before that five year

1208
01:19:43,200 --> 01:19:48,240
Speaker 1: low in gas prices some states where it's under two

1209
01:19:48,280 --> 01:19:59,639
Speaker 1: dollars a gallon stunning. No tax on tips, no tax

1210
01:19:59,680 --> 01:20:04,080
Speaker 1: on open time, tax breaks for senior citizens, on social security,

1211
01:20:05,360 --> 01:20:08,920
Speaker 1: Defunding PBS and NPR, something that I don't know how

1212
01:20:08,920 --> 01:20:13,120
Speaker 1: many Republicans presidents have talked about doing and never got done.

1213
01:20:13,400 --> 01:20:16,519
Speaker 1: Now no longer tax money going for this left wing

1214
01:20:16,600 --> 01:20:23,920
Speaker 1: organization where according to Uri Lenda, the longtime journalists in

1215
01:20:23,960 --> 01:20:26,759
Speaker 1: the headquarters of NPR and DC, there were eighty seven

1216
01:20:26,800 --> 01:20:33,120
Speaker 1: registered Democrats working for them, zero registered Republicans and tax

1217
01:20:33,160 --> 01:20:36,640
Speaker 1: players are paying for this, at least in part. And

1218
01:20:36,680 --> 01:20:43,880
Speaker 1: now we're off the hook off that reversing decades of DEI.

1219
01:20:45,400 --> 01:20:49,439
Speaker 1: Obama did a executive order mandating DEI and federal government.

1220
01:20:51,760 --> 01:20:59,000
Speaker 1: Biden put it on steroids. Trump has reversed it. Stunning,

1221
01:21:01,600 --> 01:21:10,080
Speaker 1: taking out three nuclear sites in Iran without a loss

1222
01:21:10,080 --> 01:21:19,040
Speaker 1: of life, without a loss of aircraft stunning. And now

1223
01:21:19,160 --> 01:21:26,320
Speaker 1: Operation Epic Fury, Apparently half of Iran's missile sites were

1224
01:21:26,320 --> 01:21:33,720
Speaker 1: taken out by this joint effort with the Israelis. So far,

1225
01:21:35,320 --> 01:21:39,880
Speaker 1: six US service members have lost their lives. Anything above

1226
01:21:39,960 --> 01:21:45,360
Speaker 1: zero is too many, but this is a country, Iran

1227
01:21:45,800 --> 01:21:51,280
Speaker 1: of ninety million people over twelve hundred sites military sites

1228
01:21:51,280 --> 01:21:59,519
Speaker 1: were attacked. We'll find out what happens, but so far

1229
01:22:01,920 --> 01:22:09,439
Speaker 1: brilliantly executed. Today President had a ceremony where he gets

1230
01:22:09,439 --> 01:22:11,120
Speaker 1: the energy to do all this stuff is beyond me,

1231
01:22:12,479 --> 01:22:20,880
Speaker 1: awarding Presidential Medals of Freedom to three military personnel, one

1232
01:22:20,920 --> 01:22:26,120
Speaker 1: of whom is a man that President Trump described number.

1233
01:22:25,880 --> 01:22:28,160
Speaker 2: Forty eighteen forty one.

1234
01:22:28,760 --> 01:22:32,599
Speaker 3: Roddy Edmunds of Knoxville, Tennessee, enlisted in the US Army

1235
01:22:33,240 --> 01:22:36,320
Speaker 3: and soon rose to one of the youngest master sergeants

1236
01:22:36,400 --> 01:22:40,280
Speaker 3: in the military. In nineteen forty four, he sailed to

1237
01:22:40,439 --> 01:22:43,479
Speaker 3: Europe to fight in World War Two, and he was

1238
01:22:43,520 --> 01:22:48,040
Speaker 3: so enthusiastic and young and full of vim and vigor.

1239
01:22:49,080 --> 01:22:51,720
Speaker 3: Roddy soon found himself on the front lines.

1240
01:22:51,400 --> 01:22:54,080
Speaker 2: Of the Battle of the Balls. That was a big one.

1241
01:22:54,880 --> 01:23:00,799
Speaker 3: Massively outnumbered by enemy forces. His twelve hundred the soldier

1242
01:23:00,880 --> 01:23:05,599
Speaker 3: unit fought valiantly until they were completely overrun. The force

1243
01:23:05,800 --> 01:23:10,719
Speaker 3: was massive on the other side, many times number. After

1244
01:23:10,760 --> 01:23:15,360
Speaker 3: a four day death march one that was covered very

1245
01:23:15,360 --> 01:23:19,760
Speaker 3: well by the history books, through bitter cold, they were

1246
01:23:19,800 --> 01:23:22,280
Speaker 3: put into a German pow camp.

1247
01:23:23,080 --> 01:23:26,240
Speaker 2: Roddy was the top ranking infantryman in the camp.

1248
01:23:26,360 --> 01:23:29,600
Speaker 3: He was number one, meaning he was responsible for the

1249
01:23:29,640 --> 01:23:34,240
Speaker 3: lives of his fellow service members. On July twenty sixth,

1250
01:23:34,320 --> 01:23:38,400
Speaker 3: nineteen forty five, and Nazi SS officer issued an order

1251
01:23:38,560 --> 01:23:42,240
Speaker 3: over the camp loudspeaker, loud and strong.

1252
01:23:43,439 --> 01:23:44,080
Speaker 1: He said that.

1253
01:23:44,120 --> 01:23:47,759
Speaker 3: Only Americans Jews were to show up to roll call

1254
01:23:48,400 --> 01:23:54,280
Speaker 3: following this morning. He added, all who disobey this order

1255
01:23:54,560 --> 01:23:58,920
Speaker 3: will be shot immediately. There were more than two hundred

1256
01:23:59,000 --> 01:24:03,080
Speaker 3: Jewish Americans in the camp, and Roddy knew their separation

1257
01:24:03,240 --> 01:24:07,160
Speaker 3: from the group would mean certain death, So that night

1258
01:24:07,200 --> 01:24:11,280
Speaker 3: he summoned his team and devised a plan. The next morning,

1259
01:24:11,720 --> 01:24:15,240
Speaker 3: all twelve hundred American men fell in line together.

1260
01:24:15,040 --> 01:24:16,240
Speaker 2: Shoulder to shoulder.

1261
01:24:17,520 --> 01:24:23,320
Speaker 3: Enraged, the Nazi commandant rushed forward, drew his lugar pistol,

1262
01:24:24,040 --> 01:24:27,719
Speaker 3: and pressed the barrel between Sergeant Edmund's eyes.

1263
01:24:28,760 --> 01:24:31,479
Speaker 2: He barked at Roddy, they.

1264
01:24:31,960 --> 01:24:36,160
Speaker 3: Cannot all be Jews, he screamed loud and again and again,

1265
01:24:37,040 --> 01:24:40,400
Speaker 3: and staring straight back into the raging face of evil,

1266
01:24:41,200 --> 01:24:47,200
Speaker 3: Sergeant Edmunds replied, fearlessly, we are all Jews here. The

1267
01:24:47,320 --> 01:24:50,680
Speaker 3: Nazi officer lowered his weapon and the soldiers erupted in

1268
01:24:50,760 --> 01:24:54,920
Speaker 3: cheers with total disregard for his own life. Roddy had

1269
01:24:54,960 --> 01:24:58,200
Speaker 3: saved over two hundred of his fellow service members there.

1270
01:24:58,920 --> 01:25:02,880
Speaker 3: Camp was liberated two months later. We're honored to be

1271
01:25:03,000 --> 01:25:07,080
Speaker 3: joined today by Roddy's son, Chris. Please stand up as

1272
01:25:20,280 --> 01:25:23,240
Speaker 3: thank you, Chris. Today your father gets the honor he

1273
01:25:23,760 --> 01:25:26,400
Speaker 3: so courageously.

1274
01:25:25,840 --> 01:25:28,879
Speaker 2: Earned and really amazing.

1275
01:25:29,120 --> 01:25:34,240
Speaker 3: It's an amazing story. Congratulations to the family of Master

1276
01:25:34,360 --> 01:25:36,720
Speaker 3: Sergeant Ruddy Edmunds.

1277
01:25:38,640 --> 01:25:43,680
Speaker 1: Democrats are claiming that the strikes against Iran are unlawful,

1278
01:25:43,800 --> 01:25:47,519
Speaker 1: that they violate the War Powers Act. Going to remind

1279
01:25:47,600 --> 01:25:52,360
Speaker 1: you that President Obama authorized over five hundred targeted drone

1280
01:25:52,360 --> 01:25:59,240
Speaker 1: strikes resulted in an estimated nearly four thousand deaths, including

1281
01:25:59,280 --> 01:26:04,840
Speaker 1: over three hundreds civilians. Operations were primarily in Pakistan, Yemen,

1282
01:26:04,960 --> 01:26:13,160
Speaker 1: and Somalia, and supposedly he personally approved the targets. Remember,

1283
01:26:14,360 --> 01:26:17,680
Speaker 1: during the Obama administration, he joined with France and the

1284
01:26:17,760 --> 01:26:20,880
Speaker 1: UK to bomb Libya even though Kadaf had already given

1285
01:26:20,960 --> 01:26:24,639
Speaker 1: up his nuclear program. I criticized that then I didn't

1286
01:26:24,680 --> 01:26:29,719
Speaker 1: see the point, and he was criticized on both sides

1287
01:26:29,720 --> 01:26:34,920
Speaker 1: of the Aisle for allegedly sidestepping the War Powers Act.

1288
01:26:38,520 --> 01:26:43,559
Speaker 1: White House spokesman at the time, J. Carney said that

1289
01:26:43,600 --> 01:26:47,920
Speaker 1: the operations in Libya were quote constrained and limited, and

1290
01:26:47,960 --> 01:26:51,240
Speaker 1: that it does not amount to hostilities because the United

1291
01:26:51,280 --> 01:26:54,200
Speaker 1: States does not have or intend to place soldiers on

1292
01:26:54,240 --> 01:27:07,400
Speaker 1: the ground. Where were the pitchforks. No one called him

1293
01:27:07,400 --> 01:27:13,880
Speaker 1: a fascist or a Nazi to my knowledge the joint

1294
01:27:15,320 --> 01:27:19,720
Speaker 1: press conference with the Secretary of War and the Joint Chiefs,

1295
01:27:21,240 --> 01:27:25,040
Speaker 1: I played you the part of Pete heseath we come

1296
01:27:25,040 --> 01:27:27,479
Speaker 1: background and play what the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs,

1297
01:27:27,720 --> 01:27:33,879
Speaker 1: General Dan Caine said. Also, Kamala Harris criticized the Iranian strikes,

1298
01:27:33,920 --> 01:27:42,200
Speaker 1: as has Democrat Senator Chris Murphy, Tom Cotton, Lindsey Graham,

1299
01:27:42,320 --> 01:27:45,120
Speaker 1: and John Fetterman all appeared on the weekend shows to

1300
01:27:45,160 --> 01:27:48,439
Speaker 1: talk about it again. John Fetterman one of the few

1301
01:27:48,560 --> 01:27:52,599
Speaker 1: voices on that side of the aisle that support President

1302
01:27:52,640 --> 01:27:59,640
Speaker 1: Trump in this mission. Triple eight nine seventy one S

1303
01:27:59,680 --> 01:28:02,719
Speaker 1: eight Ge also a poster weighed in on how people

1304
01:28:02,760 --> 01:28:04,760
Speaker 1: are reacting all of this, all of this and more.

1305
01:28:04,840 --> 01:28:11,719
Speaker 1: I'm Larry Elder Triple Late nine seven one Sage, Triple

1306
01:28:11,760 --> 01:28:13,479
Speaker 1: eight nine seventy one seven two four to three.

1307
01:28:13,520 --> 01:28:13,800
Speaker 6: I m.

1308
01:28:13,880 --> 01:28:17,280
Speaker 1: Larry Elder. We are sailing news channels talking about the

1309
01:28:17,439 --> 01:28:21,160
Speaker 1: numerous achievements by this president in just one year. And

1310
01:28:21,200 --> 01:28:24,360
Speaker 1: of course, because he became president again, we now found

1311
01:28:24,400 --> 01:28:29,200
Speaker 1: out about the law fair against him. That members of

1312
01:28:29,240 --> 01:28:34,400
Speaker 1: the Intel community under Barack Obama did not believe that

1313
01:28:34,439 --> 01:28:36,920
Speaker 1: the Russians were trying to help Donald Trump get elected.

1314
01:28:38,760 --> 01:28:41,960
Speaker 1: And then Trump gets elected. All of a sudden, Obama

1315
01:28:42,000 --> 01:28:43,840
Speaker 1: calls in the same Intel people and says, giving me

1316
01:28:43,880 --> 01:28:46,920
Speaker 1: a new assessment, and they completely change their assessment and say, yeah,

1317
01:28:46,920 --> 01:28:53,919
Speaker 1: the Russians are trying to get him elected. Congress persons,

1318
01:28:54,840 --> 01:29:00,240
Speaker 1: phone records subpoenad because of this investigation on the January

1319
01:29:00,240 --> 01:29:05,639
Speaker 1: sixth insurrection. And by the way, think about what Trump

1320
01:29:05,640 --> 01:29:12,200
Speaker 1: has done with starting truth Social. He can post his

1321
01:29:12,320 --> 01:29:17,639
Speaker 1: own stuff on his own time, without spend, without perving

1322
01:29:17,680 --> 01:29:21,760
Speaker 1: to rely on the willingness of other social media platforms

1323
01:29:22,720 --> 01:29:26,080
Speaker 1: to post the things he wants posted. So you want

1324
01:29:26,080 --> 01:29:28,080
Speaker 1: to find out what the president thinks, you can go

1325
01:29:28,120 --> 01:29:30,840
Speaker 1: directly to truth Social without having to go through any

1326
01:29:30,840 --> 01:29:34,799
Speaker 1: of these other organizations that will alter, turned down, change

1327
01:29:35,680 --> 01:29:40,440
Speaker 1: edit what he wants. That alone, what a amazing achievement.

1328
01:29:41,000 --> 01:29:44,080
Speaker 1: He can talk directly to the American people on his

1329
01:29:44,120 --> 01:29:52,000
Speaker 1: own without interference. Reportedly, the CIA had been surveilling the

1330
01:29:52,080 --> 01:30:00,000
Speaker 1: Supreme Leader for months, tracking his travel patterns, meetings, communicat

1331
01:30:04,080 --> 01:30:08,640
Speaker 1: and the attack, according to officials, was described as a

1332
01:30:08,720 --> 01:30:12,639
Speaker 1: quote window of opportunity close quote because the Iranian leadership

1333
01:30:12,680 --> 01:30:17,680
Speaker 1: was meeting all at once, as opposed to having to

1334
01:30:17,720 --> 01:30:23,040
Speaker 1: track down individuals over time. This is Chairman of the

1335
01:30:23,120 --> 01:30:27,439
Speaker 1: Joint Chief of Staff, General Dan Kine, number forty one.

1336

01:32:14,360 --> 01:32:17,439
Speaker 15: the Joint Force who are fighting this fight across the

1366
01:32:22,320 --> 01:32:25,960

1368

01:32:40,439 --> 01:32:43,639
Speaker 15: and his team, who are engaged with the Iranian Navy

1371
01:32:44,000 --> 01:32:48,519
Speaker 15: and projecting American naval combat power from the seas, and

1372
01:32:48,760 --> 01:32:52,519
Speaker 15: United States Air Force Central Command Commander Lieutenant General Derek

1373
01:32:52,760 --> 01:32:57,240
Speaker 15: France and his leadership team who are crushing Iranian targets

1374
01:32:57,240 --> 01:33:00,320
Speaker 15: from the air. I want to highlight the support to

1375
01:33:00,360 --> 01:33:04,200
Speaker 15: the Sencom fight from other combatant commands who are directly

1376
01:33:04,320 --> 01:33:08,920
Speaker 15: involved with this effort, to include US spacecomm US Cybercom,

1377
01:33:09,280 --> 01:33:13,559
Speaker 15: and usu COM. I also want to specifically call out

1378
01:33:13,960 --> 01:33:19,120
Speaker 15: United States Transportation Command and US Stratcom for their contributions

1379
01:33:19,160 --> 01:33:23,880
Speaker 15: to this fight. We cannot project American combat power at

1380
01:33:23,920 --> 01:33:27,759
Speaker 15: the time and place of our choosing without both. And finally,

1381

Speaker 15: the continued service and sacrifice of the entire Joint Force

1383
01:33:35,160 --> 01:33:40,200
Speaker 15: and their families. Their unwavering commitment and dedication are the

1384
01:33:40,320 --> 01:33:44,040
Speaker 15: cornerstones of this effort. So let me start with a

1385
01:33:44,080 --> 01:33:48,160
Speaker 15: few details first. To be clear, as the Secretary said,

1386
01:33:48,520 --> 01:33:53,040
Speaker 15: this is not a single overnight operation. The military objectives

1387
01:33:53,040 --> 01:33:55,640
Speaker 15: at Sencom and the Joint Force have been tasked with

1388
01:33:55,880 --> 01:33:59,280
Speaker 15: will take some time to achieve and in some cases

1389
01:33:59,640 --> 01:34:03,120
Speaker 15: will be difficult and gritty work. We expect to take

1390
01:34:03,479 --> 01:34:07,960
Speaker 15: additional losses, and as always, we will work to minimize

1391
01:34:08,240 --> 01:34:12,040
Speaker 15: US losses. But as the Secretary said, this is major

1392
01:34:12,080 --> 01:34:16,120
Speaker 15: combat operations, so let me talk about the preparation and

1393
01:34:16,200 --> 01:34:19,840
Speaker 15: the planning. On February twenty eighth, the full strength of

1394
01:34:19,880 --> 01:34:24,280
Speaker 15: America's armed forces came together in a unified purpose against

1395
01:34:24,320 --> 01:34:26,160
Speaker 15: a capable and determined adversary.

1396
01:34:26,680 --> 01:34:27,960
Speaker 7: The United States.

1397
01:34:27,720 --> 01:34:33,080
Speaker 15: Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force, Space Force, Coastguard, and

1398
01:34:33,160 --> 01:34:37,680
Speaker 15: our reserve components integrated our cross our combatant commands and

1399
01:34:37,800 --> 01:34:42,240
Speaker 15: began coordinated operations with the Israeli armed forces of an

1400
01:34:42,280 --> 01:34:47,200
Speaker 15: unprecedented scale. As the Secretary laid out, our military objectives

1401
01:34:47,200 --> 01:34:50,680
Speaker 15: are clear. Our mission is to protect and defend ourselves and,

1402
01:34:50,720 --> 01:34:55,920
Speaker 15: together with our regional partners, prevent Iran from the ability

1403
01:34:55,960 --> 01:34:59,840
Speaker 15: to project power outside of its borders, and be ready

1404
01:34:59,840 --> 01:35:05,919
Speaker 15: for follow on actions as appropriate. Across every domain, land, air, sea, cyber,

1405
01:35:06,120 --> 01:35:10,519
Speaker 15: The US Joint Force delivered synchronized and layered effects designed

1406
01:35:10,560 --> 01:35:16,519
Speaker 15: to disrupt, degrade, deny, and destroy Iran's ability to conduct

1407
01:35:16,560 --> 01:35:21,719
Speaker 15: and sustain combat operations. On the US side, this marked

1408
01:35:21,720 --> 01:35:25,880
Speaker 15: the culmination of months and in some cases years, of

1409
01:35:25,920 --> 01:35:30,920
Speaker 15: deliberate planning and refinement against this particular target set. From

1410
01:35:31,000 --> 01:35:36,760
Speaker 15: precision strikes against key military infrastructure, to persistent intelligence and

1411
01:35:36,840 --> 01:35:41,719
Speaker 15: targeting integration, to the close coordination of the components across

1412
01:35:41,840 --> 01:35:49,120
Speaker 15: vast distances. This operation again demonstrated America's reach, readiness, and professionalism,

1413
01:35:49,479 --> 01:35:53,280
Speaker 15: and that of our joint United Force. It was historic

1414
01:35:53,439 --> 01:35:56,519
Speaker 15: not only in the operational scope, but in the level

1415
01:35:56,560 --> 01:36:01,920
Speaker 15: of joint integration displayed across every element of the Joint Force.

1416
01:36:02,439 --> 01:36:05,040
Speaker 15: And as I said earlier, this work is just beginning

1417
01:36:05,040 --> 01:36:06,639
Speaker 15: and will continue.

1418
01:36:06,120 --> 01:36:09,040
Speaker 1: When we come back more of what General Kine is saying.

1419
01:36:09,080 --> 01:36:11,639
Speaker 1: By the way, a bunch of people have called and said, no,

1420
01:36:11,800 --> 01:36:14,759
Speaker 1: it was the Medal of Honor that the President awarded

1421
01:36:16,360 --> 01:36:19,519
Speaker 1: in Congress's name. The Presidential Medal of Freedom is the

1422
01:36:19,600 --> 01:36:23,160
Speaker 1: highest civilian award. But no, this is the medal of honor.

1423
01:36:23,320 --> 01:36:26,120
Speaker 1: A whole bunch of people called, Okay, my bad, I

1424
01:36:26,200 --> 01:36:27,400
Speaker 1: just do that. To make sure that you guys are

1425
01:36:27,400 --> 01:36:30,400
Speaker 1: paying attention. Triple eight nine seven one s A G E.

1426

Speaker 1: the VAT but it never come out again.

1428
01:36:36,520 --> 01:36:42,760
Speaker 15: Well, I wonder where the Louisiana ship went to.

1429
01:36:42,120 --> 01:36:44,679
Speaker 1: Triple eight nine seven one s A G E. Triple

1430
01:36:44,720 --> 01:36:46,920
Speaker 1: eight nine seven one seven two four to three. I

1431
01:36:46,920 --> 01:36:51,080
Speaker 1: am Larry Elder. We are Salem News Channel. In January,

1432
01:36:51,160 --> 01:36:54,479
Speaker 1: at the World Economic Forum, the Treasury Secretary Scott Bessett

1433
01:36:54,479 --> 01:36:58,719
Speaker 1: talked about how it is that we are destabilizing Araand's economy.

1434
01:36:58,720 --> 01:37:00,479
Speaker 1: I'll get to that in a second, but back to

1435
01:37:01,200 --> 01:37:02,639
Speaker 1: the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs.

1436
01:37:03,960 --> 01:37:06,240
Speaker 15: So now to talk a little bit about setting the

1437
01:37:06,360 --> 01:37:09,640
Speaker 15: force and setting the theater. On the order of the

1438
01:37:09,680 --> 01:37:13,000
Speaker 15: Secretary of War. Over the last thirty days, to reinforce

1439
01:37:13,080 --> 01:37:17,800
Speaker 15: deterrents and provide the President with credible options should action

1440
01:37:17,960 --> 01:37:22,880
Speaker 15: be required, the Joint Force began to systematically reposition assets

1441
01:37:22,920 --> 01:37:28,080
Speaker 15: in personnel across the region. These movements ensured that US

1442
01:37:28,080 --> 01:37:34,320
Speaker 15: forces remained postured, protected, and ready to respond decisively for

1443
01:37:34,439 --> 01:37:39,320
Speaker 15: any emerging threat. This deployment included thousands of service members

1444
01:37:39,360 --> 01:37:44,040
Speaker 15: from all branches, hundreds of advanced fourth and fifth generation fighters,

1445
01:37:44,120 --> 01:37:48,519
Speaker 15: dozens of refueling tankers, the Lincoln and Ford Carrier Strike

1446
01:37:48,560 --> 01:37:52,800
Speaker 15: Group and their embarked air wings. Sustained flow of munitions,

1447
01:37:52,880 --> 01:37:57,640
Speaker 15: fuel supplies, all supported with command and control, intelligence, surveillance,

1448
01:37:57,680 --> 01:38:03,479
Speaker 15: and reconnaissance. Network of forces continues today. In fact, Admiral

1449
01:38:03,520 --> 01:38:08,120
Speaker 15: Cooper will receive additional forces even today. This rapid build

1450
01:38:08,200 --> 01:38:13,240
Speaker 15: up of forces demonstrated the joint forces ability to adapt

1451
01:38:13,280 --> 01:38:15,439
Speaker 15: and project power at the time and place of our

1452
01:38:15,560 --> 01:38:19,240
Speaker 15: nation's choosing. I want to highlight a couple specific cases

1453
01:38:19,280 --> 01:38:19,559
Speaker 15: for you.

1454
01:38:20,200 --> 01:38:21,000
Speaker 2: The Gerald R.

1455
01:38:21,040 --> 01:38:23,840
Speaker 15: Ford Carrier Strike Group, which many of you know was

1456
01:38:23,920 --> 01:38:28,320
Speaker 15: down in the Western Hemisphere, redeployed across the Atlantic to

1457
01:38:28,439 --> 01:38:32,280
Speaker 15: set the theater. The ship, her crew, their families in

1458
01:38:32,360 --> 01:38:35,679
Speaker 15: the entire Strike Group took a deep breath, and as

1459
01:38:35,720 --> 01:38:41,479
Speaker 15: they always do, began planning to conduct combat operations. The

1460
01:38:41,479 --> 01:38:46,120
Speaker 15: integrated Reserve and National Guard forces have continued to demonstrate

1461
01:38:46,520 --> 01:38:50,560
Speaker 15: the value of America's reserve forces, including the westcar Wisconsin

1462
01:38:50,680 --> 01:38:53,960
Speaker 15: Army National Guard operating in Kuwait and Rock and Air

1463
01:38:54,080 --> 01:38:58,000
Speaker 15: National Guard units from a variety of states, to include

1464
01:38:58,120 --> 01:39:01,320
Speaker 15: Vermont and Virginia in the case of the Vermont Air

1465
01:39:01,439 --> 01:39:04,160
Speaker 15: National Guard and the one to fifty eighth Fighter Wing.

1466
01:39:04,439 --> 01:39:08,439
Speaker 15: They were mobilized for Operation Absolute Resolve and then were

1467
01:39:08,520 --> 01:39:11,680
Speaker 15: tasked to take their F thirty five a's across the

1468
01:39:11,720 --> 01:39:14,879
Speaker 15: Atlantic instead of going home to be prepared to support

1469
01:39:14,920 --> 01:39:18,479
Speaker 15: this operation. The same as with our Air National Guard

1470
01:39:18,520 --> 01:39:22,000
Speaker 15: and Air Force Reserve Command, tanker and mobility forces who

1471
01:39:22,040 --> 01:39:25,720
Speaker 15: stepped right out of their civilian jobs to deploy and

1472
01:39:25,760 --> 01:39:30,120
Speaker 15: to protect the region. Lastly, I want to highlight the

1473
01:39:30,280 --> 01:39:35,599
Speaker 15: unsung heroes of warfare, our American logisticians and sustainment force,

1474
01:39:36,200 --> 01:39:40,240
Speaker 15: those who quietly work every day behind the scenes to

1475
01:39:40,360 --> 01:39:45,599
Speaker 15: project and sustain America's combat power. Our leaders from World

1476
01:39:45,600 --> 01:39:49,080
Speaker 15: War II were right when they said professionals do logistics.

1477
01:39:49,720 --> 01:39:53,400
Speaker 15: As regional tensions rose, the Joint Force elevated our force

1478
01:39:53,479 --> 01:39:57,720
Speaker 15: protection measures on the order of the Secretary and repositioned

1479
01:39:57,760 --> 01:40:02,080
Speaker 15: discreetly civilians and non essential personnel designed to ensure the

1480
01:40:02,120 --> 01:40:05,840
Speaker 15: safety and security of our Joint Force. By the time

1481
01:40:05,920 --> 01:40:09,960
Speaker 15: operations began, only essential forces remained on our bases and

1482
01:40:10,000 --> 01:40:15,280
Speaker 15: in theater, all ready capable to respond. So now let

1483
01:40:15,320 --> 01:40:19,920
Speaker 15: me move to h hour. At fifteen thirty eight three

1484
01:40:20,080 --> 01:40:25,000
Speaker 15: thirty eight pm on Friday, February twenty seventh, the United

1485
01:40:25,040 --> 01:40:28,680
Speaker 15: States Central Command, through the Secretary of War received the

1486
01:40:28,760 --> 01:40:32,640
Speaker 15: final go order from President Trump. The President directed and

1487
01:40:32,680 --> 01:40:36,679
Speaker 15: I quote Operation Epic Fury is approved. No aborts, good

1488
01:40:36,760 --> 01:40:40,600
Speaker 15: luck close quote. In the region, every element of the

1489
01:40:40,680 --> 01:40:45,760
Speaker 15: Joint Force made their final preparations. Air defense batteries ready themselves,

1490
01:40:46,160 --> 01:40:50,200
Speaker 15: checking their systems to respond to Iranian attacks. Pilots and

1491
01:40:50,280 --> 01:40:53,800
Speaker 15: crews rehearse their strike packages for the final time. Air

1492
01:40:53,840 --> 01:40:57,559
Speaker 15: crews began loading their final weapons, and two carrier strike

1493
01:40:57,600 --> 01:40:59,960
Speaker 15: groups began to move towards their launching.

1494
01:40:59,600 --> 01:41:01,639
Speaker 2: Points across the globe.

1495
01:41:01,680 --> 01:41:05,280
Speaker 15: Our operation centers came alive in Tampa, Florida, here at

1496
01:41:05,320 --> 01:41:08,679
Speaker 15: the Pentagon, and of course forward in the Central Command AAR.

1497
01:41:09,600 --> 01:41:15,559
Speaker 15: As always, operational security was paramount as we sought to

1498
01:41:15,640 --> 01:41:20,240
Speaker 15: maintain and sustain the element of surprise. This operation was

1499
01:41:20,320 --> 01:41:23,800
Speaker 15: highly classified, so that at each hour the enemy would

1500
01:41:23,840 --> 01:41:28,439
Speaker 15: see one thing, speed, surprise and violence of action. The

1501
01:41:28,479 --> 01:41:32,799
Speaker 15: first movers were US Cybercom and US space Com, layering

1502
01:41:32,840 --> 01:41:37,679
Speaker 15: non kinetic effects, disrupting and degrading and blinding Iran's ability

1503
01:41:37,720 --> 01:41:42,839
Speaker 15: to see, communicate, and respond. At h hour, the beginning

01:42:37,720 --> 01:42:39,679
Speaker 1: Back to the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs.

1519
01:42:40,400 --> 01:42:45,360
Speaker 15: Electronic attack bombers from the States and unmanned platforms forming

1520
01:42:45,640 --> 01:42:50,799
Speaker 15: a single synchronized wave. This was a daylight strike based

1521
01:42:50,840 --> 01:42:54,800
Speaker 15: on air trigger event conducted by the Israeli Defense Forces,

1522
01:42:55,240 --> 01:42:59,320
Speaker 15: enabled by the US intelligence community. The first shooters at

1523
01:42:59,400 --> 01:43:03,559
Speaker 15: sea were Omahawks unleashed by the United States Navy, closed

1524
01:43:03,600 --> 01:43:07,479
Speaker 15: in on Iranian naval forces and began to conduct strikes

1525
01:43:07,520 --> 01:43:11,639
Speaker 15: across the southern flank in Iran on the ground forces

1526
01:43:11,680 --> 01:43:18,400
Speaker 15: fired precision standoff weapons measured deliberate, precise, and lethal. This

1527
01:43:18,560 --> 01:43:22,960
Speaker 15: was a massive, overwhelming attack across all domains of warfare,

1528
01:43:23,160 --> 01:43:25,799
Speaker 15: striking more than one thousand targets in the first twenty

1529
01:43:25,800 --> 01:43:30,800
Speaker 15: four hours. We are now roughly fifty seven hours into

1530
01:43:30,880 --> 01:43:35,680
Speaker 15: the operation. In the initial phase, Sentcom's focus was systematic

1531
01:43:35,720 --> 01:43:41,600
Speaker 15: targeting of Iranians, command and control infrastructure, naval forces, ballistic

1532
01:43:41,680 --> 01:43:47,679
Speaker 15: missile sites, and intelligence infrastructure designed to daze and confuse them.

1533
01:43:48,280 --> 01:43:54,679
Speaker 15: Coordinated space and cyber operations effectively disrupted communications and sensor

1534
01:43:54,800 --> 01:43:59,679
Speaker 15: networks across the area of responsibility, leaving the adversary without

1535
01:43:59,800 --> 01:44:04,400
Speaker 15: the the ability to see, coordinate, or respond effectively. The

1536
01:44:04,479 --> 01:44:08,840
Speaker 15: combined impact of these strikes, swift, precise, and overwhelming, has

1537
01:44:08,880 --> 01:44:13,360
Speaker 15: resulted in the establishment of local air superiority. This air

1538
01:44:13,400 --> 01:44:17,040
Speaker 15: superiority will not only enhance the protection of our forces,

1539
01:44:17,360 --> 01:44:20,759
Speaker 15: but also allow them to continue the work over Iran.

1540
01:44:21,840 --> 01:44:24,040
Speaker 15: Over the course of the last two days, the joint

1541
01:44:24,080 --> 01:44:27,559
Speaker 15: force has launched hundreds of missions from land and sea

1542
01:44:28,160 --> 01:44:31,360
Speaker 15: and delivered tens of thousands of pieces of ordinance. The

1543
01:44:31,400 --> 01:44:36,840
Speaker 15: effort continues to scale. This included American B two bombers, which,

1544
01:44:36,880 --> 01:44:40,360
Speaker 15: again similar to Midnight Hammer, flew a thirty seven hour

1545
01:44:40,479 --> 01:44:45,000
Speaker 15: round trip sortie from the continental United States, dropping precision

1546
01:44:45,479 --> 01:44:51,120
Speaker 15: penetrating munitions on Iranian underground facilities across the southern flank

1547
01:44:51,520 --> 01:44:56,880
Speaker 15: and slightly deeper. Additionally, Israel has separately executed hundreds of

1548
01:44:56,920 --> 01:45:02,200
Speaker 15: sorties against hundreds of targets. Beyond air Force and Navy

1549
01:45:02,439 --> 01:45:07,400
Speaker 15: aircraft strike packages, coordinated salvos of precision standoff weapons from

1550
01:45:07,400 --> 01:45:11,439
Speaker 15: across the region have neutralized hundreds of pre planted targets.

1551
01:45:12,120 --> 01:45:16,080
Speaker 15: As I mentioned earlier, in support of these kinetic operations,

1552
01:45:16,200 --> 01:45:21,880
Speaker 15: US cybercommt spacecom have continuously layered effects to disrupt, disorient,

1553
01:45:22,280 --> 01:45:26,080
Speaker 15: and confuse the enemy. I will note that this operation

1554
01:45:26,800 --> 01:45:30,719
Speaker 15: had several combat firsts, which I'll allow at some point

1555
01:45:30,760 --> 01:45:33,559
Speaker 15: in the future Admiral Cooper to talk about since he

1556
01:45:33,600 --> 01:45:40,320
Speaker 15: owns the AAR. While we've prosecuted a relentless offensive campaign,

1557
01:45:40,800 --> 01:45:45,800
Speaker 15: our defense has been equally important. Across the theater. Operations

1558
01:45:45,840 --> 01:45:50,439
Speaker 15: have remained steady and disciplined. Once again, our integrated air

1559
01:45:50,479 --> 01:45:55,720
Speaker 15: and Missile defense network is performing axactly exactly as it's intended.

1560
01:45:56,680 --> 01:46:01,559
Speaker 15: US Patriot and THAD batteries, along with ballistic missile defense

1561
01:46:01,720 --> 01:46:07,120
Speaker 15: capable Navy destroyers continue to coordinate and execute intercepts with

1562
01:46:07,200 --> 01:46:13,679
Speaker 15: precision and consistency. I wish that every American could hear

1563
01:46:13,920 --> 01:46:18,800
Speaker 15: the voice communications like I have, as these joint operation

1564
01:46:19,120 --> 01:46:25,880
Speaker 15: centers remain calm, focused, and cool while executing under fire

1565
01:46:26,760 --> 01:46:32,040
Speaker 15: over and over again. Collectively, these systems have intercepted hundreds

1566
01:46:32,080 --> 01:46:38,360
Speaker 15: of ballistic missiles targeting US forces, our partners, and regional stability.

1567
01:46:39,400 --> 01:46:43,000
Speaker 15: The threat from one way attack UABS has remained persistent.

1568
01:46:43,720 --> 01:46:48,439
Speaker 15: Our systems have proven effective encountering these platforms, engaging targets rapidly.

1569
01:46:49,040 --> 01:46:55,000
Speaker 15: Each intercept represents hundreds of hours of training, readiness, and technology,

1570
01:46:55,080 --> 01:46:59,679
Speaker 15: all coming together to work as designed. We remain vigilant

1571
01:46:59,760 --> 01:47:03,160
Speaker 15: in the counter UAV fight, and the defense of the

1572
01:47:03,200 --> 01:47:07,240
Speaker 15: region is not ours alone. As the threat grew, our

1573
01:47:07,320 --> 01:47:12,120
Speaker 15: partners surged in beside US Air Defense batteries in Qatar,

1574
01:47:12,680 --> 01:47:16,080
Speaker 15: the UAE, Kuwait, Jordan, and Saudi Arabia joined the fight,

1575
01:47:16,720 --> 01:47:20,640
Speaker 15: proof positive that years of training, trust and harder and

1576
01:47:20,680 --> 01:47:25,840
Speaker 15: integration payoff. I am aware of the loss of three

1577
01:47:26,400 --> 01:47:29,599
Speaker 15: US Air Force F fifteen and e's overnight in the region.

1578
01:47:30,479 --> 01:47:33,320
Speaker 15: I am grateful for the safety of the crews, and

1579
01:47:33,360 --> 01:47:36,880
Speaker 15: we know that this was not from hostile enemy fire.

1580
01:47:37,640 --> 01:47:41,679
Speaker 15: As this matters under investigation, I'll not comment further on this,

1581
01:47:42,880 --> 01:47:47,719
Speaker 15: let me close. Operations will remain active across the theater

1582
01:47:48,320 --> 01:47:52,720
Speaker 15: and across the globe. The US forces are postured not

1583
01:47:52,760 --> 01:47:57,600
Speaker 15: only to maintain pressure, but to respond and adapt as required.

1584
01:47:58,479 --> 01:48:01,559
Speaker 15: Operation Epic Fury stands as a reminder of what the

1585
01:48:01,680 --> 01:48:07,519
Speaker 15: United States military uniquely delivers, the ability to project power

1586
01:48:07,600 --> 01:48:13,760
Speaker 15: on a global scale with speed, surprise, precision, and overwhelming

1587
01:48:13,840 --> 01:48:19,040
Speaker 15: force when and where our nation requires it. What we've

1588
01:48:19,080 --> 01:48:22,800
Speaker 15: demonstrated over the past several days reflects years of investment

1589
01:48:22,840 --> 01:48:27,559
Speaker 15: in readiness, joint integration, and professionalism of the Joint Force.

1590
01:48:28,800 --> 01:48:33,840
Speaker 15: As major combat operations continue across Sencom, we remain engaged globally.

1591
01:48:34,280 --> 01:48:39,960
Speaker 15: America's Joint Force retains the credibility, capacity, and flexibility to

1592
01:48:40,080 --> 01:48:45,160
Speaker 15: respond to any contingency anywhere in the world at any time.

1593
01:48:46,000 --> 01:48:49,519
Speaker 15: To those who would test our resolve or threaten the

1594
01:48:49,640 --> 01:48:56,240
Speaker 15: United States, our allies, or our interests, understand clearly, we

1595
01:48:56,280 --> 01:48:59,760
Speaker 15: can reach you, We can sustain the fight, and we

1596
01:48:59,800 --> 01:49:03,720
Speaker 15: can and scale the fight, and we will prevail. To

1597
01:49:03,760 --> 01:49:10,479
Speaker 15: the American people, your Joint Force remains steady, frosty, calm

1598
01:49:10,800 --> 01:49:16,960
Speaker 15: and focused. Your service members are trained, disciplined, and determined.

1599
01:49:17,640 --> 01:49:21,040
Speaker 15: We understand the risks of this mission and the weight

1600
01:49:21,479 --> 01:49:26,599
Speaker 15: of the responsibility that we carry. We also recognize that

1601
01:49:26,680 --> 01:49:31,240
Speaker 15: our families also shoulder the burden at home. You are

1602
01:49:31,280 --> 01:49:35,280
Speaker 15: a part of this too. I am proud today, as

1603
01:49:35,320 --> 01:49:38,160
Speaker 15: I am every day to stand as a member of

1604
01:49:38,200 --> 01:49:42,760
Speaker 15: America's Joint Force. There is no mission too complex, no

1605
01:49:42,880 --> 01:49:47,160
Speaker 15: distance too great, and no adversary too determined. For the

1606
01:49:47,200 --> 01:49:51,639
Speaker 15: men and women who wear our nation's uniform, we mourn

1607
01:49:51,680 --> 01:49:55,920
Speaker 15: are fallen, we honor their families, and we continue our

1608
01:49:55,960 --> 01:49:58,960
Speaker 15: mission with focus, unity and strength.

1609
01:50:00,479 --> 01:50:05,200
Speaker 1: We come back, we'll talk about how we destabilized Iran's economy.

1610
01:50:06,200 --> 01:50:07,960
Speaker 1: You know, one of the most rewarding parts of sharing

1611
01:50:08,000 --> 01:50:11,839
Speaker 1: Relief Factor with you is hearing real stories like Sandra's.

1612
01:50:12,080 --> 01:50:14,200
Speaker 1: She tells us, I've been hearing about Relief Factor on

1613
01:50:14,240 --> 01:50:16,679
Speaker 1: the radio for a couple of years, and I finally

1614
01:50:16,720 --> 01:50:19,679
Speaker 1: decided to try because nothing else was helping with my back.

1615
01:50:21,560 --> 01:50:23,640
Speaker 1: With the three week quick start, I went for it.

1616
01:50:23,720 --> 01:50:27,240
Speaker 1: Now I feel like a new person. These are Sandra's

1617
01:50:27,280 --> 01:50:30,400
Speaker 1: own words, and it's so gratifying to hear I've told

1618
01:50:30,439 --> 01:50:32,439
Speaker 1: you about Kirk having difficulty going up and down the

1619
01:50:32,439 --> 01:50:35,240
Speaker 1: stairs in the morning. He finally started listening to me,

1620
01:50:35,800 --> 01:50:38,960
Speaker 1: began taking relief. After around seven days, he calls, this

1621
01:50:39,600 --> 01:50:43,519
Speaker 1: is working. Try it for yourself. Three week quick start

1622
01:50:43,960 --> 01:50:47,120
Speaker 1: nineteen dollars and ninety five cents, less than a dollar

1623
01:50:47,160 --> 01:50:49,360
Speaker 1: a day. Say a relief factor could be your game

1624

Speaker 1: Man born in Senegal shot and killed two people and

1630
01:51:21,000 --> 01:51:24,920
Speaker 1: wounded fourteen in a bar in Austin, Texas, on Sunday,

1631
01:51:25,120 --> 01:51:30,400
Speaker 1: hours after the announcement of Operation Epic Fury. Unclear whether

1632
01:51:30,439 --> 01:51:34,080
Speaker 1: he was motivated by it, but he is. He had

1633
01:51:34,080 --> 01:51:43,719
Speaker 1: a Quran in his car, and apparently he had a

1634
01:51:43,760 --> 01:51:51,080
Speaker 1: hoodie that made a reference to Allah. He was killed himself.

1635
01:51:51,880 --> 01:51:55,040
Speaker 1: Came here in two thousand under tourist visa, got a

1636
01:51:55,040 --> 01:51:58,160
Speaker 1: green car in two thousand and six, was naturalized in

1637
01:51:58,200 --> 01:52:01,879
Speaker 1: twenty thirteen. Some time in New York. We're going to Texas.

1638
01:52:03,600 --> 01:52:07,679
Speaker 1: The Treasury Secretary Scott Bessett in January at the World

1639
01:52:07,680 --> 01:52:10,720
Speaker 1: Economic Forum, talked about what we were doing to destabilize

1640
01:52:10,720 --> 01:52:15,080
Speaker 1: Iraan's economy Number twenty.

1641
01:52:15,400 --> 01:52:17,439
Speaker 17: What do you want to say about sanctions something else

1642
01:52:17,479 --> 01:52:20,679
Speaker 17: you've been working on? Of course, what are you planning

1643
01:52:20,720 --> 01:52:24,200
Speaker 17: there in terms of Iran and the impact? Do sanctions

1644
01:52:24,240 --> 01:52:28,200
Speaker 17: actually work? And the same question with regard to five

1645
01:52:28,280 --> 01:52:31,639
Speaker 17: hundred percent. Secondary sanctions are tariffs on countries who purchase

1646
01:52:32,040 --> 01:52:33,439
Speaker 17: energy products from Russia.

1647
01:52:34,240 --> 01:52:36,080
Speaker 1: Okay, so two things there.

1648
01:52:36,240 --> 01:52:39,360
Speaker 16: There are Treasury sanctions and if you look at the

1649
01:52:39,439 --> 01:52:41,920
Speaker 16: speech that I gave at the Economic Club of New

1650
01:52:42,000 --> 01:52:45,960
Speaker 16: York last March, I said that I believe the Iranian

1651
01:52:46,040 --> 01:52:49,280
Speaker 16: currency was on the verge of collapse, that if I

1652
01:52:49,320 --> 01:52:51,720
Speaker 16: were an Iranian citizen, I would take my money out.

1653
01:52:52,240 --> 01:52:56,400
Speaker 16: President Trump ordered Treasury and our O fact Division Office

1654
01:52:56,400 --> 01:53:00,519
Speaker 16: of Foreign Asset Control to put maximum pressure on Iran,

1655
01:53:00,760 --> 01:53:05,559
Speaker 16: and it's worked. In December, their economy collapsed. We saw

1656
01:53:05,560 --> 01:53:08,559
Speaker 16: a major bank go under. The central Bank has started

1657
01:53:08,600 --> 01:53:12,080
Speaker 16: to print money. There is a dollar shortage. They are

1658
01:53:12,120 --> 01:53:15,040
Speaker 16: not able to get imports, and this is why the

1659
01:53:15,080 --> 01:53:18,840
Speaker 16: people took to the street so this is economic stake crap,

1660
01:53:19,200 --> 01:53:25,360
Speaker 16: no shots fired, and things are moving in a very

1661
01:53:25,640 --> 01:53:26,920
Speaker 16: positive way here.

1662
01:53:28,120 --> 01:53:31,439
Speaker 1: He also said at that time that Treasury is tracking

1663
01:53:31,640 --> 01:53:35,720
Speaker 1: dollars leaving Iran because if leaders are fearing the end

1664
01:53:35,880 --> 01:53:37,960
Speaker 1: of the regime Number twenty one rob.

1665
01:53:38,000 --> 01:53:41,400
Speaker 16: The other thing, as Treasury, who carries out the sanctions,

1666
01:53:41,479 --> 01:53:44,200
Speaker 16: we can see is we are now seeing the rats

1667
01:53:44,200 --> 01:53:47,760
Speaker 16: fulling the ship because we can see millions, tens of

1668
01:53:47,760 --> 01:53:51,000
Speaker 16: millions of dollars being wired out of the country, snuck

1669
01:53:51,040 --> 01:53:54,240
Speaker 16: out of the country by the Iranian leadership. So they

1670
01:53:54,240 --> 01:53:57,560
Speaker 16: are abandoning ship and we are seeing it come into

1671
01:53:59,360 --> 01:54:02,040
Speaker 16: banks and financial institutions.

1672
01:54:01,280 --> 01:54:02,080
Speaker 1: All over the world.

1673
01:54:02,439 --> 01:54:05,080
Speaker 16: And what we do with Treasury is we follow the money,

1674
01:54:05,400 --> 01:54:08,920
Speaker 16: whether it is through the typical banking system or through

1675
01:54:09,040 --> 01:54:12,720
Speaker 16: digital assets. We are going to trace these assets and

1676
01:54:12,760 --> 01:54:13,839
Speaker 16: they will not be able.

1677
01:54:13,640 --> 01:54:17,439
Speaker 1: To keep Obviously, more on this tomorrow. Things are changing

1678
01:54:17,479 --> 01:54:20,040
Speaker 1: by the hour. You can always leave a call Triple

1679
01:54:20,080 --> 01:54:23,080
Speaker 1: eight nineteen o one sage God bless.

1680
01:54:26,960 --> 01:54:34,280
Speaker 15: What can I say, but Mike has been dropped all

1681
01:54:34,320 --> 01:54:35,320
Speaker 15: across America.

1682
01:54:35,600 --> 01:54:46,200
Speaker 1: That's enough. Put down the mic. The Larry Elder Show
