1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:07,920 Speaker 1: Good morning, cooner. Contrary, Okay, massive massive developments now taking 2 00:00:07,960 --> 00:00:13,680 Speaker 1: place in the war with Iran, and huge developments over 3 00:00:13,720 --> 00:00:17,919 Speaker 1: the last forty eight hours. So as I speak to 4 00:00:18,040 --> 00:00:22,079 Speaker 1: you now, we are now in a massive war with 5 00:00:22,200 --> 00:00:27,240 Speaker 1: the Ayatolas. It is getting escalating and escalating and escalating, 6 00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:31,080 Speaker 1: to the point now that Trump says there can be 7 00:00:31,120 --> 00:00:36,120 Speaker 1: no negotiations, There will be no diplomatic off ramp. There 8 00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:42,480 Speaker 1: is nothing the Iatolas can offer or concede that will 9 00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:47,600 Speaker 1: be enough for me to negotiate an end to this war. 10 00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:52,280 Speaker 1: In other words, in plain English, he says, either the 11 00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:59,440 Speaker 1: Ayatolas completely surrender, wave the white flag and surrender and 12 00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:04,600 Speaker 1: give up, or we will smash the Ayatolas and their 13 00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:11,360 Speaker 1: ruling regime to pieces. So in effect, now we are 14 00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:15,240 Speaker 1: not just at war with the Iranian mullas, we are 15 00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:19,760 Speaker 1: now committed to the complete overthrow of their regime, in 16 00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:25,840 Speaker 1: other words, a regime change. Furthermore, Trump now says he 17 00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:30,360 Speaker 1: is extremely confident of victory. He believes now this campaign 18 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:33,440 Speaker 1: will last about four or five weeks. But by the 19 00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:37,119 Speaker 1: time four or five weeks is over, he says, there 20 00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:41,839 Speaker 1: will be nothing left. Their navy is gone, their air 21 00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:47,800 Speaker 1: force is gone, their ballistic missile nuclear program is being degraded, 22 00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:51,560 Speaker 1: and he says, within four to five weeks it will 23 00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:57,760 Speaker 1: be gone. The Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps, the besiege, their 24 00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:02,360 Speaker 1: brutal paramilitary forces, he says, will be smashed from the air, 25 00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:07,240 Speaker 1: from missiles, from naval power. He says, the longer this 26 00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:12,680 Speaker 1: war goes on, he will grind Iran's military into dust. 27 00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:16,000 Speaker 1: And so by the time he is done, he says, 28 00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:19,440 Speaker 1: there will be nothing left. There will be no military, 29 00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:25,080 Speaker 1: no military infrastructure, no nuclear program to speak of, and 30 00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:29,760 Speaker 1: for the most part, no regime to speak of. Now, 31 00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:34,560 Speaker 1: on top of all of this, President Trump is now 32 00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:38,200 Speaker 1: weighing with his inner circle. Reports now have come out 33 00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:44,320 Speaker 1: that he is being lobbied hard by people within the administration, 34 00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:48,880 Speaker 1: by Israel, by Senator Lindsey Graham. And I'm going to 35 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:52,080 Speaker 1: get to Graham soon because he's now emerged as a 36 00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:56,840 Speaker 1: central player in all of this to send in US 37 00:02:57,000 --> 00:03:02,360 Speaker 1: ground forces. In particular, what they are now talking about 38 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:06,639 Speaker 1: is not a large ground invasion. Trump does not want 39 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 1: to do that. He continues to say no, although Lindsey 40 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:16,480 Speaker 1: Graham and Israel and the warhawks within the administration are 41 00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 1: pushing for him to send in at least one hundred 42 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:23,840 Speaker 1: to one hundred and fifty thousand troops US troops to 43 00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:27,200 Speaker 1: topple the regime from the inside and then pick a 44 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:31,520 Speaker 1: successor government. However, Trump does not want to do that, 45 00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:37,520 Speaker 1: fearing an Iraq style quagmire and a protracted guerrilla war 46 00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:44,440 Speaker 1: and a protracted conflict. However, he is now seriously considering 47 00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:52,880 Speaker 1: sending in US Special Operations forces, a limited number of 48 00:03:53,120 --> 00:04:00,720 Speaker 1: Special Operations probably Army the Rangers, the Army Delta Rangers, 49 00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:05,800 Speaker 1: maybe Naval Seal Team six, but send in a limited 50 00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:13,040 Speaker 1: number of US Special Operations forces in order to seize 51 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:19,880 Speaker 1: or destroy the enriched uranium stockpile that the Mullahs are 52 00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:26,480 Speaker 1: hiding somewhere deep underground. The administration is very concerned that 53 00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 1: as the regime now slowly gets smashed to pieces as 54 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:36,039 Speaker 1: it starts to break up and is fragmented, that that 55 00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:41,000 Speaker 1: stockpile could either be seized by someone within the regime 56 00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:45,400 Speaker 1: and then sold or given away on the international black market, 57 00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 1: or that terrorist groups which do operate within Iran, including 58 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:56,200 Speaker 1: by the way isis they are a Sunni Islamist group, 59 00:04:56,600 --> 00:05:00,440 Speaker 1: but they do operate within Iran, that they they could 60 00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:04,720 Speaker 1: come in and grab that stockpile, which most of it 61 00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:09,719 Speaker 1: apparently is deep buried under Isfahan, which is one of 62 00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:13,720 Speaker 1: the key nuclear sites that the United States and Israel 63 00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:18,359 Speaker 1: blew up in Operation Midnight Hammer last year last June. 64 00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:22,679 Speaker 1: While it is deep underground, it is buried under rubble. 65 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:26,960 Speaker 1: But the fear is that either the Uranians will try 66 00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:29,799 Speaker 1: to grab it and then sell it or give it away, 67 00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:34,280 Speaker 1: or the terrorists will come and grab it for themselves 68 00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:37,840 Speaker 1: and then try to sell it or develop it on 69 00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:42,360 Speaker 1: the international market. And so they don't want that enriched 70 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:46,960 Speaker 1: uranium stockpile, which is at about they say sixty percent 71 00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:51,880 Speaker 1: another twenty thirty percent and it becomes nuclear weapons fuel. 72 00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:56,039 Speaker 1: So there is a race against the clock now to 73 00:05:56,200 --> 00:06:01,600 Speaker 1: try to seize that enriched uranium. Now is being lobbied 74 00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:06,760 Speaker 1: hard that we should send in our forces into Iran. 75 00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 1: Obviously they have to be protected, so there's going to 76 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:14,279 Speaker 1: be a larger force to protect the special operations forces 77 00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:22,520 Speaker 1: along with nuclear specialists who can potentially dilute and safely 78 00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:27,960 Speaker 1: dispose of and destroy It's about four hundred and fifty 79 00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 1: kilograms of this highly enriched uranium. And the fear is 80 00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:40,240 Speaker 1: and this is why Trump is seriously being cautious about it. 81 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:44,760 Speaker 1: He's not eager to do it. This will not only 82 00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 1: expose our troops on the ground, It will expose nuclear 83 00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:51,800 Speaker 1: scientists who have to be brought in. It will expose 84 00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:55,719 Speaker 1: other regular troops who have to protect our special operations forces. 85 00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:59,200 Speaker 1: They could be ambushed and this could lead to a 86 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:05,240 Speaker 1: potential a a bloodbath, a heavy loss of life, and 87 00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:09,960 Speaker 1: even worse eventually. The beginning of the introduction is sort 88 00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:14,280 Speaker 1: of like Mission Creep, the beginning of the introduction of 89 00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:19,640 Speaker 1: more and more and more troops and this sort of 90 00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:24,680 Speaker 1: sucking in of US forces. Now, so far, I want 91 00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:31,480 Speaker 1: to stress, no decision has been made. None. So he's 92 00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:35,360 Speaker 1: just weighing a lot of options. He but it's coming out. 93 00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:41,280 Speaker 1: He is now seriously considering a limited deployment of Special 94 00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:48,120 Speaker 1: Operations forces to get the uranium. Now pressure is also building. 95 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:51,240 Speaker 1: That you know, in for a penny, in for a pound, 96 00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 1: if you're gonna send in Special Operations forces and you're 97 00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 1: gonna do it to seize or destroy the enriched stockpile. 98 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:05,000 Speaker 1: Now pressure is building. What the hell you've got the 99 00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:11,440 Speaker 1: forces there already, arm the opposition, train the opposition, and 100 00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:17,040 Speaker 1: then together lead an assault on toppling the Ayatolas from within. 101 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:23,120 Speaker 1: So this, honestly is that my nightmare scenario. I have 102 00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:26,760 Speaker 1: feared this from the beginning, that it would start off 103 00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:35,240 Speaker 1: as a very successful, overwhelming, powerful military air and naval campaign, 104 00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:40,280 Speaker 1: but inevitably it would descend into boots on the ground. 105 00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:45,680 Speaker 1: Now here is the problem that President Trump faces. I 106 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:50,440 Speaker 1: have no doubt that are incredible men and women in 107 00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:57,880 Speaker 1: the military, especially you know the Rangers and especially Navy 108 00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:03,720 Speaker 1: Seal Team six that are special ops will not perform brilliantly. 109 00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:10,959 Speaker 1: That I have no doubt. My fear is what comes next. 110 00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:14,960 Speaker 1: There is a massive army. Whatever you think about the 111 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:20,079 Speaker 1: Ayatolas and the Mullahs, there is a huge Iranian ground 112 00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 1: army there and they are waiting for us to come. 113 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:28,440 Speaker 1: In fact, that is their strategy, absorb blow after blow 114 00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:33,880 Speaker 1: after blow after blow, and then goat us into invading. 115 00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:38,440 Speaker 1: In fact, the Foreign Minister is daring Trump repeatedly, come 116 00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:42,040 Speaker 1: and invade Iran. We dare you. You're attacking us from 117 00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:45,800 Speaker 1: the air, from the sea, Come in, Come in where 118 00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:48,480 Speaker 1: in other words, they want to turn this into another 119 00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:52,679 Speaker 1: giant Iraq, and we may be playing into their hands. 120 00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:59,040 Speaker 1: The other fear, I have is political. This war is 121 00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:05,040 Speaker 1: already deeply About fifty percent of the American public are 122 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:09,040 Speaker 1: dead set against it, about forty to forty one forty 123 00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:12,960 Speaker 1: two percent favorite. The rest still remain undecided. I don't 124 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:15,600 Speaker 1: know what's to be undecided about at this point, but anyway, 125 00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:21,360 Speaker 1: so he already has half the country against him. If 126 00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:26,240 Speaker 1: he puts boots on the ground, many in MAGA will 127 00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:31,400 Speaker 1: say no, I don't want boots on the ground. There 128 00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:34,680 Speaker 1: is no appetite in this country for a ground war. 129 00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:39,319 Speaker 1: There is no appetite in this country for US deploying 130 00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:44,360 Speaker 1: troops and losing even more troops. Okay, I want to 131 00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:47,840 Speaker 1: ask all of you, the great audience of Kooner Country, 132 00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:51,079 Speaker 1: two questions, and I'd like to get to the phones 133 00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:54,520 Speaker 1: as quickly as possible. We are now in the second 134 00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 1: week of this very important historic war with Iran, which 135 00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:03,520 Speaker 1: will define Trump's presidency, I believe will define the Middle 136 00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:09,400 Speaker 1: East and maybe even the world. We shall see. Number one, 137 00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:13,360 Speaker 1: Trump now has laid thrown down the gauntlet. He has 138 00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:20,520 Speaker 1: now laid out his ultimate objective. He wants Iran's unconditional surrender, 139 00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:25,120 Speaker 1: very similar to World War Two. He wants a complete 140 00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:29,920 Speaker 1: and total surrender. He doesn't want to have any negotiations anymore. 141 00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:33,840 Speaker 1: He is done with the Mullahs and the Iyatolas. As 142 00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:36,880 Speaker 1: he put it, they had their chance and they blew it. 143 00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:44,439 Speaker 1: And so he was asked specifically, what does unconditional surrender mean. 144 00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:51,480 Speaker 1: Listen now to his response. The reporter mangled the question 145 00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:56,840 Speaker 1: said it was conditional surrender, and Trump said, no, no, no, no, 146 00:11:56,880 --> 00:12:05,160 Speaker 1: I'm talking unconditional surrender. Roll cut nine, Mike, I mean 147 00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:09,440 Speaker 1: it was a year. Unconditional surrender looks like you would 148 00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:13,280 Speaker 1: you openly wrong. I said unconditioning. Like condition I said, 149 00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:14,640 Speaker 1: unconditioned is whether. 150 00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:17,360 Speaker 2: They cry uncle or whether they can't fight any long 151 00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:21,959 Speaker 2: longer there's nobody around to cry uncle. I do, because 152 00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 2: you know, we wiped out their leadership numerous times of it. 153 00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:29,000 Speaker 1: So it's uh if they. 154 00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:32,280 Speaker 2: Surrender or if there is nobody around to surrender, but 155 00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:35,120 Speaker 2: they're rendered useless in terms of minister. 156 00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:38,080 Speaker 1: It was on Air Force one. There's a lot of 157 00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:41,600 Speaker 1: background noise. I apologize, So let me repeat what he said. 158 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:45,040 Speaker 1: He said. It's not I didn't say conditional, he said. 159 00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:48,880 Speaker 1: I said, I said unconditional surrender. And he said, that's 160 00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:52,920 Speaker 1: when they that's where they cry uncle, or they can't 161 00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:56,400 Speaker 1: fight anymore, or there was no one around in the 162 00:12:56,480 --> 00:13:00,679 Speaker 1: leadership to cry uncle. And then he goes on to 163 00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:05,680 Speaker 1: say that we defeat them completely, that there's no one there. 164 00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:09,640 Speaker 1: There's in other words, there's no more regime. So what 165 00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:13,120 Speaker 1: he's saying now is he wants a regime change war. 166 00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:18,679 Speaker 1: Now he is calling again for a massive popular uprising 167 00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:23,560 Speaker 1: among the Iranian people. He is stressing, this is a 168 00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:28,360 Speaker 1: once in a generation opportunity for you to rise up, 169 00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:32,320 Speaker 1: take over your government, take over your country, take over 170 00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:38,280 Speaker 1: your society. So far, so far, there has been no uprising. 171 00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:42,720 Speaker 1: Now that's obviously partially because the bombs are falling, and 172 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:46,280 Speaker 1: the bombs are falling hard and heavy. Over the weekend, 173 00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:53,480 Speaker 1: the United States now has dramatically increased the intensity and 174 00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:59,719 Speaker 1: the ferocity of our attack. We are now decimating the 175 00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:05,760 Speaker 1: Anian military in one of the most intense, ferocious campaigns 176 00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:10,120 Speaker 1: in military history. So Trump now is going for the 177 00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:13,840 Speaker 1: knockout blow as all of this is going on. Just 178 00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:16,240 Speaker 1: to let you fill all of you in on all 179 00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:21,720 Speaker 1: the latest developments. The supreme leader Ali ha Many, who's dead, 180 00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:30,680 Speaker 1: his eldest son, Moushtada or Mushtaba forgive me Moushtaba. How 181 00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:37,960 Speaker 1: many has now been appointed officially or selected officially as 182 00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:43,080 Speaker 1: the new supreme leader? Why is this important? He's not 183 00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:48,320 Speaker 1: just as hardline, He's even more hardline than his father was. 184 00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:55,320 Speaker 1: He's even more rabid, more anti Semitic, more anti American, 185 00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:59,560 Speaker 1: more radical. In fact, he is now saying a fight 186 00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:03,920 Speaker 1: to the death. He is now ordering every single Shia 187 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:07,960 Speaker 1: Muslim to wage a holy war against the United States. 188 00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:13,000 Speaker 1: And he is now urging and telling ordering his government 189 00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:17,360 Speaker 1: and the military, the Iranian military, this must be now 190 00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:21,480 Speaker 1: a fight to the end, a fight to the death. So, 191 00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:27,160 Speaker 1: rather than softening their position, the Iyatolas are hardening their 192 00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:32,680 Speaker 1: position and becoming even more defiant. Now, second question, so 193 00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:38,440 Speaker 1: number one, do you support Trump's call for an unconditional 194 00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:43,880 Speaker 1: surrender and a complete regime change? Number one? Number two, 195 00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:48,400 Speaker 1: Trump now is opening the door at least a considering 196 00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:54,920 Speaker 1: sending in special forces, US ground forces. Again, it's going 197 00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:57,960 Speaker 1: to be limited, maybe five ten thousand, we'll see what 198 00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:03,320 Speaker 1: the number is troops to send in to either destroy 199 00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:09,600 Speaker 1: the enriched uranium stockpile in Iran or to seize it ourselves. 200 00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:12,960 Speaker 1: So the Uranian government or the Mullas don't grab it, 201 00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:17,760 Speaker 1: or some other terrorist group doesn't grab it. Do you 202 00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:23,640 Speaker 1: support the introduction of limited US ground forces into Iran 203 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:29,360 Speaker 1: in order to grab the enriched uranium or to dilute 204 00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:35,040 Speaker 1: and destroy the enriched uranium? Six one seven two six 205 00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:40,200 Speaker 1: six sixty eight sixty eight is the number. Obviously, the 206 00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:44,200 Speaker 1: argument for sending in the ground forces is that if 207 00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:48,600 Speaker 1: you want to completely wipe out Iran's nuclear program, then 208 00:16:48,640 --> 00:16:52,400 Speaker 1: you take away the stockpile. They have to then begin 209 00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:59,000 Speaker 1: from scratch, literally from scratch. And as Trump said, if 210 00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:03,640 Speaker 1: I can't find anyone left to replace the iatolas at 211 00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:07,440 Speaker 1: a bare minimum, then we'll have set back their nuclear 212 00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:14,000 Speaker 1: program ten years, their ballistic missile program ten years. All right, 213 00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:17,480 Speaker 1: Two questions in front of the House. Number one, do 214 00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:23,440 Speaker 1: you support Trump's call his policy now of unconditional surrender? 215 00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:26,880 Speaker 1: When asked point blank, but what do you mean exactly, 216 00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:30,679 Speaker 1: he said, basically, I want the regime obliterated, period, full stop. 217 00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:33,680 Speaker 1: Or they can just wave the white flag of surrender 218 00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:39,159 Speaker 1: and they have to, you know, do our bidding and 219 00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:42,040 Speaker 1: everything we tell them to do. Whatever the remnants of 220 00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:46,600 Speaker 1: the regime are that wish to surrender. So do you 221 00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:50,960 Speaker 1: agree with unconditional surrender or do you think, as many 222 00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:55,200 Speaker 1: a things are saying now, it leaves no diplomatic off ramp, 223 00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:59,360 Speaker 1: no chance for a negotiated end. We are now in 224 00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:02,600 Speaker 1: it to win it. It is a regime change war, 225 00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:06,080 Speaker 1: whether we like it or not, and maybe many do 226 00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:09,520 Speaker 1: like it. But in other words, it's got to go 227 00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:14,479 Speaker 1: now all the way to the end. Secondly, President Trump 228 00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:19,000 Speaker 1: now considering hasn't made a decision yet, but seriously considering 229 00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:24,720 Speaker 1: sending special operations forces US forces a limited deployment of 230 00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:30,359 Speaker 1: ground troops into Iran in order to seize or destroy 231 00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:36,560 Speaker 1: the enriched uranium stockpile that the iotols have amassed over 232 00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:39,960 Speaker 1: the last twenty some years. It would then be the 233 00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:45,680 Speaker 1: beginning of a ground invasion, or at least a ground incursion. 234 00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:51,400 Speaker 1: And many are saying, like myself, that if Trump decides 235 00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:55,720 Speaker 1: to go down that road, he needs to get authorization 236 00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:59,600 Speaker 1: from Congress. If you're gonna put boots on the ground 237 00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:04,399 Speaker 1: for whatever mission, you're gonna need the support of the 238 00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:08,520 Speaker 1: American people, the approval of the American people, and that 239 00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:12,760 Speaker 1: is done through an authorization or a vote in Congress. 240 00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:18,840 Speaker 1: That's my opinion, that's the way I see it. Agree, disagree, 241 00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:23,120 Speaker 1: six one seven two six x sixty eight sixty eight. 242 00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:27,560 Speaker 1: And you know my position, no boots on the ground. Absolutely, 243 00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:31,600 Speaker 1: not no way, Jose. But that's me I want to 244 00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:35,160 Speaker 1: hear from you. Listen now to President Trump. I want 245 00:19:35,160 --> 00:19:38,320 Speaker 1: to play one quick clip and then go right to 246 00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:41,840 Speaker 1: the phone lines. He was at the Shield of the 247 00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:47,240 Speaker 1: America's summit in which he talked about deterring and destroying 248 00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:51,159 Speaker 1: all of these drug cartels in Mexico and across the 249 00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:56,160 Speaker 1: Western hemisphere. But of course, overshadowing it is the war 250 00:19:56,320 --> 00:20:01,000 Speaker 1: in Iran, Operation Epic Fury, and so oh. He's now 251 00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:05,119 Speaker 1: confident of victory. He says, we're on our way to 252 00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:10,240 Speaker 1: one of the most spectacular military victories in history, and 253 00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:14,760 Speaker 1: he believes now that history will judge him for having 254 00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:19,480 Speaker 1: done the right thing. Roll cut one, Mike. 255 00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:26,920 Speaker 2: And we're doing very well. And Iran, you see the result, 256 00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:32,200 Speaker 2: and it's it's been amazing. We've knocked out forty two 257 00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:37,280 Speaker 2: Navy ships, some of them very large, in three days. 258 00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:39,879 Speaker 2: That was the end of the Navy. We knocked out 259 00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:43,800 Speaker 2: their air force, we knocked out there communications and all 260 00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:47,840 Speaker 2: telecommunications is gone. I don't know how they communicate, but 261 00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:51,320 Speaker 2: I guess they they will figure something out. It's not 262 00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:52,359 Speaker 2: working out too well. 263 00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:54,280 Speaker 1: And they bad people. 264 00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:57,719 Speaker 2: They just bad people. When you look at October seventh 265 00:20:57,760 --> 00:21:00,480 Speaker 2: and beyond October seventh, look at all the killing that 266 00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:05,280 Speaker 2: they've done over the years, for forty seven years, and 267 00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:08,000 Speaker 2: this had to be done. They were very close to 268 00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:10,720 Speaker 2: a nuclear weapon. They would have had one. If we 269 00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:16,080 Speaker 2: didn't do our B two hit Midnight Hammer, they would 270 00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:16,560 Speaker 2: have had it. 271 00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:21,879 Speaker 1: So basically saying, had he not done the massive strike 272 00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:25,359 Speaker 1: last year, they were on the verge of a bomb, 273 00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:29,159 Speaker 1: they would have had it. Now their nuclear program is 274 00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:34,680 Speaker 1: in tatters, their ballistic missile infrastructure is being smashed. As 275 00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:37,400 Speaker 1: he said, he's right. Their navy is practically gone, their 276 00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:41,280 Speaker 1: air force is finished. Their telecommunications now has been utterly 277 00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:45,240 Speaker 1: knocked out. Iran is blind, deaf, and dumb, and now 278 00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:48,840 Speaker 1: they are taking a massive pounding. I mean just it 279 00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:55,160 Speaker 1: is strike after strike, hit after hit the United States 280 00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:59,760 Speaker 1: and Israel through air and sea and missile power, we 281 00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:05,000 Speaker 1: are hitting Iranian targets practically at will now one last 282 00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:07,400 Speaker 1: point and then I want to go to you. The 283 00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:14,000 Speaker 1: Iranians now are firing missiles and drone attacks furiously. It 284 00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:18,600 Speaker 1: has been a furious attack counter attack. Over the last 285 00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:21,800 Speaker 1: forty eight hours, they are now hitting a lot of 286 00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:25,720 Speaker 1: the Gulf States. They're trying to hit their oil refineries, 287 00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:30,679 Speaker 1: their oil infrastructure. They want to grind oil production in 288 00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:33,680 Speaker 1: the Middle East to a halt. And they also now 289 00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:37,680 Speaker 1: are doing everything in their power to throttle to block 290 00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:42,280 Speaker 1: the Strait of horn Moose. The Strait of horn Moose 291 00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:49,040 Speaker 1: as it stands right now is essentially not functional. In 292 00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:53,399 Speaker 1: plain English, there is now a massive squeeze on the 293 00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:57,560 Speaker 1: global supply of oil, and over the weekend, and you're 294 00:22:57,560 --> 00:22:59,679 Speaker 1: going to hear this all day, all day, all day 295 00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:05,840 Speaker 1: to day, all day tomorrow. Gas prices now are surging, surging, 296 00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:09,920 Speaker 1: not just internationally obviously, but here in the United States. 297 00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:14,720 Speaker 1: Gas is now skyrocketed from eighty dollars a barrel to 298 00:23:14,840 --> 00:23:19,040 Speaker 1: now one hundred dollars a barrel, and they fear it 299 00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:21,880 Speaker 1: may go up to one hundred and ten dollars a barrel. 300 00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:26,359 Speaker 1: Gas prices are already up about thirty to forty cents 301 00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:30,320 Speaker 1: a gallon across this country. Much more in Europe and Asia. 302 00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:34,439 Speaker 1: The Europeans and the Asians are much more vulnerable to 303 00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:38,160 Speaker 1: an oil price shock than we are because we produce 304 00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:41,720 Speaker 1: a lot of oil and natural gas here, so we 305 00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:46,160 Speaker 1: can minimize and absorb some of the shock. But still 306 00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:49,800 Speaker 1: gas prices on average are up about thirty two to 307 00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:55,000 Speaker 1: thirty five cents a gallon here. Diesel very important because 308 00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:59,000 Speaker 1: the truckers rely on diesel obviously for their freight. It's 309 00:23:59,119 --> 00:24:03,040 Speaker 1: up now fit fifty cents a gallon, and they fear 310 00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:07,000 Speaker 1: it can continue to go up. And so what that 311 00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:10,560 Speaker 1: means is higher prices at the pump, but not just 312 00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:14,840 Speaker 1: higher prices at the pump, higher prices for airfare because 313 00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:19,600 Speaker 1: jet fuel is becoming very expensive, higher prices for construction sites, 314 00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:25,080 Speaker 1: for factories, for products, for produce because everything is delivered 315 00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:28,760 Speaker 1: by our trucks, and that extra cost is going to 316 00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:32,639 Speaker 1: be passed on either to the companies or to the consumers. 317 00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:37,840 Speaker 1: So we could be heading now towards a short term 318 00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:43,560 Speaker 1: increase and maybe even a considerable increase in inflation. That's 319 00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:47,520 Speaker 1: why Trump wants to end this war as quickly as possible. 320 00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:53,480 Speaker 1: The Mullahs want to drag this war out. Their strategy 321 00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:57,200 Speaker 1: is to keep hitting these Gulf nations, keep the strait 322 00:24:57,280 --> 00:25:02,200 Speaker 1: of hormos bottled up. US prices go up and up, 323 00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:06,600 Speaker 1: hopefully leading to more and more inflation to higher prices, 324 00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:11,119 Speaker 1: to hurt the American economy and the global economy and 325 00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:15,640 Speaker 1: force Trump to some kind of a negotiated deal. So 326 00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:18,960 Speaker 1: the Iranians are playing the long game. They want to 327 00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:23,919 Speaker 1: drag this out. Trump wants a lightning war, end it 328 00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:27,359 Speaker 1: within a month, and end it with the complete surrender 329 00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:31,680 Speaker 1: of the Mullas six one seven two six six sixty 330 00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:37,280 Speaker 1: eight sixty eight is unconditional surrender the right policy? Do 331 00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:41,480 Speaker 1: you support it? And should we send in ground forces 332 00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:48,240 Speaker 1: into Iran? Dave, our Western PA constitutionalist correspondent out in 333 00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:51,399 Speaker 1: the Pittsburgh area.

So 349 00:26:38,119 --> 00:26:40,639 Speaker 4: there's a lot of comparison to the real Mucha Hadeen, 350 00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:44,240 Speaker 4: not the bad ones under al Qaida, but they became 351 00:26:44,359 --> 00:26:48,120 Speaker 4: later the Northern Alliance. But anyway, the Kurds, we armed them. 352 00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:51,080 Speaker 4: We need to spend send our special forces in. 353 00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:56,880 Speaker 5: There, Marine riecon, you know whatever Inborn Army, Navy seals, Israeli. 354 00:26:56,640 --> 00:26:59,520 Speaker 4: Musat and some of our CIA that are smart that 355 00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:02,840 Speaker 4: I state to train these Curtis rebels, Jeff. 356 00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:05,240 Speaker 6: That way we get our guys in there. 357 00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:08,720 Speaker 4: Get out, and then they take over the new Supreme 358 00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:12,240 Speaker 4: lead and the new knucklehead another target as I call them, Jeff, 359 00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:14,400 Speaker 4: because you haven't shting fits. 360 00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:14,840 Speaker 3: In the barrel. 361 00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:17,919 Speaker 4: It's like being at a cannibal, you know, hit the 362 00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:20,200 Speaker 4: targets for in the big Teddy beated for the white 363 00:27:20,240 --> 00:27:20,960 Speaker 4: for the girlfriend. 364 00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:21,240 Speaker 6: Jeff. 365 00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:26,600 Speaker 1: I'm just curious, Dave. So you want ground troops or 366 00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:30,800 Speaker 1: at least special operations forces sent in train the Kurds 367 00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:35,000 Speaker 1: arm the Kurds arm other groups in Iran to form 368 00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:39,040 Speaker 1: this opposition, this insurgency against the Mullahs. What about the 369 00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:44,440 Speaker 1: stalk pile, the uranium stockpile. Should we send our troops 370 00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:47,400 Speaker 1: because what I said on X last night, I said, well, 371 00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:50,000 Speaker 1: what does an Israel take them out? You know, let it. 372 00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:53,879 Speaker 1: Let the Israelis send in their special operations forces and 373 00:27:53,960 --> 00:27:57,320 Speaker 1: commandos and let them take them out. Why do we 374 00:27:57,400 --> 00:27:59,800 Speaker 1: have to put our people on the ground where they're 375 00:27:59,840 --> 00:28:03,040 Speaker 1: going to be vulnerable and they could be ambushed. Okay? 376 00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:07,240 Speaker 1: President Trump now throws down the gauntlet, saying he will 377 00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:14,600 Speaker 1: accept nothing less than unconditional surrender from the Ayatolas. Agree, disagree, 378 00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:18,760 Speaker 1: And now Trump is opening the door to potentially using 379 00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:21,320 Speaker 1: He says, if he would use it, it's still an option. 380 00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:24,840 Speaker 1: Hasn't made a decision yet, but it would be a 381 00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:29,639 Speaker 1: limited number of US ground troops, ground forces, special operations 382 00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:36,159 Speaker 1: that would be deployed to either grab and extract seize 383 00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:39,840 Speaker 1: the enriched uranium. As I said, it's about four hundred 384 00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:45,480 Speaker 1: and fifty kilograms worth enriched at about sixty percent great uranium. 385 00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:49,320 Speaker 1: He says it can't be left there. The Uranians could 386 00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:54,360 Speaker 1: maybe use it preserve it, keep it, sell it. Other 387 00:28:54,480 --> 00:28:57,360 Speaker 1: terrorist groups may get their hands on it. So he 388 00:28:57,520 --> 00:29:01,080 Speaker 1: is now being urged by people around him to send 389 00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:05,280 Speaker 1: in either Navy Seal Team six or the Army Rangers 390 00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:09,400 Speaker 1: or Delta Force or whatever to go in limited operation 391 00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:14,600 Speaker 1: and either destroy that stockpile or to grab it and 392 00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:18,360 Speaker 1: seize it. Let's go right back to Dave in Pennsylvania. 393 00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:23,520 Speaker 1: Dave is a marine served in Desert Storm. Dave, I 394 00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:26,640 Speaker 1: gotta ask you. I know you want Trump to arm 395 00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:29,960 Speaker 1: the Kurds and to arm other groups that are opposed 396 00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:34,840 Speaker 1: to the Ayatolas, But what about sending in US ground 397 00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:39,880 Speaker 1: forces to grab the stockpile. Are you in favor of 398 00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:43,239 Speaker 1: that or do you think the Israelis should do that 399 00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:45,600 Speaker 1: or we just don't do anything. 400 00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:51,000 Speaker 4: I'm Jeff, no boots on the ground, no US troops, 401 00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:51,960 Speaker 4: some of. 402 00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:52,760 Speaker 5: Our elite forces. 403 00:29:52,960 --> 00:29:56,440 Speaker 4: I get the aforementioned Marine recon, Navy Seals and what 404 00:29:56,600 --> 00:30:00,520 Speaker 4: have you. On the Kurds in ab Israel. Go after 405 00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:04,840 Speaker 4: the uh uranium. I agree with you, Jeff, the stockpiles 406 00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:08,960 Speaker 4: of the of the of the nuclear stuff. Go after them, 407 00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:11,000 Speaker 4: and let Turkey get involved. 408 00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:11,360 Speaker 3: Jeff. 409 00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:14,160 Speaker 4: You know Turkey got struck by some of these missiles too. 410 00:30:14,560 --> 00:30:17,560 Speaker 4: How about Article five should be involved. You know, where's 411 00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:20,280 Speaker 4: NATO now? They're running their big mouth all the time. 412 00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:23,160 Speaker 4: Where's NATO now? There are a bunch of chicken. You 413 00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:25,600 Speaker 4: know what, Steff, I can't say on the radio, but 414 00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:29,400 Speaker 4: you know, Jeff, we go in there, We send in 415 00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:33,040 Speaker 4: no boots on the ground, We train the Curds because 416 00:30:33,080 --> 00:30:35,800 Speaker 4: the Curds in the Iranians get along real well. They 417 00:30:35,960 --> 00:30:38,840 Speaker 4: just going to Tehran and tear up the place, find 418 00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:40,960 Speaker 4: the Mulas and slaughter them. I don't mean, I know 419 00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:44,040 Speaker 4: it's graphic, Jeff, and it's a family station, but you 420 00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:45,240 Speaker 4: gotta do what you gotta do. 421 00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:49,560 Speaker 1: Jeff, Dave as always, thank you for your call, and 422 00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:53,160 Speaker 1: thank you for your service. My friend. Look, I was 423 00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:58,720 Speaker 1: initially excited about the Kurds like you. However, the Kurds 424 00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:01,440 Speaker 1: have now spoken with and they have told him no. 425 00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:04,840 Speaker 1: The Kurds say they don't want to be armed. Well, 426 00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:06,520 Speaker 1: they want to be armed, they don't mind being armed, 427 00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:09,080 Speaker 1: but they don't want to be armed for the mission 428 00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:13,800 Speaker 1: of being part of a regime change war. And when 429 00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:19,240 Speaker 1: pressed why, they say they don't believe the Mullahs are 430 00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:23,920 Speaker 1: as weak as the Trump administration or Israel believes they're 431 00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:28,080 Speaker 1: as weak. They believe that the Iatola regime for all 432 00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:32,280 Speaker 1: of its evil flaws, and the Kurds despise the Iatolas, 433 00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:37,240 Speaker 1: hate him with every fiber in their being. They say 434 00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:41,040 Speaker 1: that they're too well entrenched, that they have too much 435 00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:46,600 Speaker 1: support still within Iran, that their base is stronger than 436 00:31:46,640 --> 00:31:52,160 Speaker 1: people believe, especially in the rural areas. And the Kurds say, 437 00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:55,440 Speaker 1: we're not signing up for a suicide mission. That if 438 00:31:55,440 --> 00:31:58,240 Speaker 1: you were to arm and train us, we the Kurds 439 00:31:58,280 --> 00:32:02,240 Speaker 1: would get slaughtered. And so the Kurds have essentially said 440 00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:06,000 Speaker 1: no to being the boots on the ground or the 441 00:32:06,040 --> 00:32:11,800 Speaker 1: initial shock troops to overthrow the Iyatolas. So I want 442 00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:13,840 Speaker 1: to ask all of you, let me throw this log 443 00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:18,960 Speaker 1: on the fire. Now that the Kurds have said yet 444 00:32:19,760 --> 00:32:23,040 Speaker 1: that they don't want to be part of our armed 445 00:32:23,160 --> 00:32:31,200 Speaker 1: uprising against the Iranians, why do you think a there 446 00:32:31,320 --> 00:32:37,840 Speaker 1: has been no popular uprising up until now? And where 447 00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:44,280 Speaker 1: does Trump go to get support with an Iran so 448 00:32:44,360 --> 00:32:49,040 Speaker 1: that they can overthrow the Ayatolas. Are you surprised that 449 00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:55,240 Speaker 1: so far the uprising that everybody predicted what happened has 450 00:32:55,280 --> 00:32:58,520 Speaker 1: not yet happened. Now, I'm not saying it's not going 451 00:32:58,600 --> 00:33:02,720 Speaker 1: to happen. And I think Trump's strategy, to you know, obviously, 452 00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:06,240 Speaker 1: to be fair to the man, is once I completely 453 00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:12,640 Speaker 1: decimate and break this regime to a thousand pieces, once 454 00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:18,600 Speaker 1: the besiege are gone, the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps is smashed, 455 00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:22,920 Speaker 1: there is no more army, no more navy, no more 456 00:33:22,960 --> 00:33:28,000 Speaker 1: air force, there's nothing left of the regime. Then the 457 00:33:28,080 --> 00:33:30,760 Speaker 1: people will rise up because they have nothing to fear. 458 00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:36,960 Speaker 1: But so far, there has been no popular uprising so far, 459 00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:41,200 Speaker 1: and there is no group that is willing to stand 460 00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:45,880 Speaker 1: up as of now and tell President Trump, send us weapons, 461 00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:49,480 Speaker 1: give us training. We're ready to be your boots on 462 00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:54,280 Speaker 1: the ground and overthrow the Mullas from within. So far 463 00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:58,800 Speaker 1: Trump is he's actively saying this, I'm looking for a partner. 464 00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:03,760 Speaker 1: I haven't found the partner yet within Iran. Are you 465 00:34:03,920 --> 00:34:08,840 Speaker 1: surprised and are you now getting worried about the endgame 466 00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:13,279 Speaker 1: or do you not care about the endgame? Meaning the 467 00:34:13,360 --> 00:34:17,319 Speaker 1: goal here is to break the Mullas, to defeat them, 468 00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:22,880 Speaker 1: to destroy them, and whatever comes next comes next. But 469 00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:28,759 Speaker 1: Iran's nuclear threat will be at a minimum, it will 470 00:34:28,760 --> 00:34:33,120 Speaker 1: be neutralized for a decade to come, it will take 471 00:34:33,160 --> 00:34:38,040 Speaker 1: them at least ten years to recover, so in that sense, 472 00:34:38,160 --> 00:34:41,879 Speaker 1: it will be mission accomplished. Six one seven two six, 473 00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:48,400 Speaker 1: six sixty eight, sixty eight lines are blazing, Jake in 474 00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:53,440 Speaker 1: New Hampshire.

I think it's a 502 00:36:28,320 --> 00:36:34,040 Speaker 6: big mistake. It's something that he ran against on any 503 00:36:34,080 --> 00:36:38,880 Speaker 6: new wars. It's gonna hurt our economy. And this is 504 00:36:38,920 --> 00:36:42,279 Speaker 6: to potentially the something that last year's. 505 00:36:44,719 --> 00:36:49,279 Speaker 1: Jake. In private, Susie Wilds is chief of staff, is 506 00:36:49,880 --> 00:36:54,160 Speaker 1: very nervous, and she's she keeps saying this over and 507 00:36:54,200 --> 00:36:58,359 Speaker 1: over again, that the key to the midterm elections, and 508 00:36:58,440 --> 00:37:04,200 Speaker 1: she says this is gasproces, gas prices, gas prices. She's 509 00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:07,240 Speaker 1: screaming to everybody that will listen to her, including the President. 510 00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:12,719 Speaker 1: Gas prices, gas prices, gas prices. She says, now with 511 00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:16,000 Speaker 1: this oil shock and this surge, now we're at one 512 00:37:16,040 --> 00:37:19,720 Speaker 1: hundred bucks a barrel and going up that she fears 513 00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:23,760 Speaker 1: this may cost him the midterms. Do the American people 514 00:37:24,920 --> 00:37:28,799 Speaker 1: will Are they willing to take short term pain for 515 00:37:28,880 --> 00:37:32,840 Speaker 1: the potential long term gain of getting rid of the mullas? 516 00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:37,040 Speaker 1: In other words, if gas prices Cantique go up and 517 00:37:37,160 --> 00:37:41,320 Speaker 1: continue to stay up, is this going to bury Trump 518 00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:44,640 Speaker 1: in the midterms? Or will the American people look beyond 519 00:37:44,680 --> 00:37:48,840 Speaker 1: it if he can show successfully he's overthrown the mullets. 520 00:37:49,120 --> 00:37:49,799 Speaker 1: What say you? 521 00:37:51,760 --> 00:37:54,759 Speaker 6: I say that he better be one thousand percent sure, 522 00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:57,960 Speaker 6: gef that that's the case, that this is what they 523 00:37:58,040 --> 00:38:01,520 Speaker 6: have and this is going to take that long. If 524 00:38:01,560 --> 00:38:05,480 Speaker 6: we do end up sending boots on the ground, they 525 00:38:05,560 --> 00:38:07,960 Speaker 6: have them. Bye, you guys going you will get them 526 00:38:08,360 --> 00:38:11,759 Speaker 6: all right? What's Telsea? Gabbert saying, Jeff, What's what's the 527 00:38:11,880 --> 00:38:12,760 Speaker 6: name is dan Kine? 528 00:38:14,360 --> 00:38:17,200 Speaker 1: Well, just so that you know I'm reading reports, I 529 00:38:17,239 --> 00:38:20,640 Speaker 1: can just go by what reports are saying. Jd Vance 530 00:38:20,719 --> 00:38:24,680 Speaker 1: argued against it. He's against it. Tulci Gabbert is against it, 531 00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:28,440 Speaker 1: and dan Kine, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, is 532 00:38:28,480 --> 00:38:31,279 Speaker 1: against it. Now. He laid out the operation and the 533 00:38:31,320 --> 00:38:34,520 Speaker 1: operation so far has been you know, perfection. It's been 534 00:38:34,560 --> 00:38:38,839 Speaker 1: practically immaculate. But General Dan Kane and frankly, the entire 535 00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:42,960 Speaker 1: Joint chiefs wasn't just General Kane said, fine, we can 536 00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:46,759 Speaker 1: guarantee you victory in the military part of this. We'll 537 00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:49,480 Speaker 1: give you a plan with the combined might of the 538 00:38:49,560 --> 00:38:53,200 Speaker 1: United States and Israel that we will dismantle e run 539 00:38:53,320 --> 00:38:57,319 Speaker 1: for you. We will break them militarily, and we can 540 00:38:57,400 --> 00:39:00,800 Speaker 1: do it within a month, which is incredible, Okay, just 541 00:39:00,840 --> 00:39:04,520 Speaker 1: from a military point of view. Their argument has always 542 00:39:04,600 --> 00:39:10,160 Speaker 1: been the endgame, what happens after, and they're saying, we 543 00:39:10,200 --> 00:39:14,480 Speaker 1: don't see a viable partner, and they fear that Iran 544 00:39:14,520 --> 00:39:18,280 Speaker 1: will descend into chaos. That's been their argument from the beginning. 545 00:39:19,200 --> 00:39:21,960 Speaker 1: That it may lead to civil war, it may lead 546 00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:26,399 Speaker 1: to the country fragmenting, leading to potentially millions of refugees. 547 00:39:26,960 --> 00:39:31,680 Speaker 1: So the argument that they always had was militarily, we 548 00:39:31,719 --> 00:39:35,719 Speaker 1: can deliver you victory. But what we can't deliver for you, 549 00:39:35,880 --> 00:39:43,640 Speaker 1: or what we don't see is what comes after next now, Trump, Rubio, 550 00:39:44,400 --> 00:39:48,279 Speaker 1: Haig Seth, there's a couple of others along, obviously with 551 00:39:48,360 --> 00:39:52,080 Speaker 1: the Israelis. By the way, Lindsey Graham has been huge 552 00:39:52,120 --> 00:39:54,320 Speaker 1: in this and I'm going to talk about this later. 553 00:39:55,239 --> 00:40:00,680 Speaker 1: They're saying, go in, smash them the Ayatolas. The people 554 00:40:00,800 --> 00:40:06,160 Speaker 1: will rise that they can't stand the Iyatolas and this 555 00:40:06,440 --> 00:40:10,440 Speaker 1: repressive clerical rule of the last fifty years. They just 556 00:40:10,520 --> 00:40:14,200 Speaker 1: haven't had a chance to rise up. If you take 557 00:40:14,239 --> 00:40:18,520 Speaker 1: down the Ayatolas, the people will rise as surely as 558 00:40:18,560 --> 00:40:23,759 Speaker 1: the sun will rise. So Lindsey Graham and heg Seth 559 00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:29,080 Speaker 1: and Rubio and BB obviously have told him forget the generals, 560 00:40:29,360 --> 00:40:34,239 Speaker 1: forget jd Vance, forget Tulca Gabbard. The Iranian people are 561 00:40:34,320 --> 00:40:37,879 Speaker 1: thirsting for freedom. We will give it to them. So 562 00:40:38,200 --> 00:40:40,799 Speaker 1: that's that. Those are the dividing lines right now. 563 00:40:40,920 --> 00:40:46,120 Speaker 6: Jake, Yeah, but do you agree that this is an 564 00:40:46,160 --> 00:40:46,960 Speaker 6: American first? 565 00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:50,640 Speaker 1: I don't. Look. I think Trump is making personally the 566 00:40:50,680 --> 00:40:55,000 Speaker 1: biggest mistake of his entire presidency. I've said this from 567 00:40:55,000 --> 00:40:58,640 Speaker 1: the beginning. I've been very I'm a war skeptic. I've 568 00:40:58,640 --> 00:41:03,279 Speaker 1: been very nervous about this war for several reasons. I 569 00:41:03,320 --> 00:41:06,960 Speaker 1: think the biggest one is I don't see what comes 570 00:41:07,080 --> 00:41:12,680 Speaker 1: after we take on the Iyatolas. I fear very much 571 00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:16,440 Speaker 1: that are the dan Kane and the and the and 572 00:41:16,480 --> 00:41:18,120 Speaker 1: the Joint chiefs of staff are right. 573 00:41:19,120 --> 00:41:19,400 Speaker 3: Uh. 574 00:41:19,440 --> 00:41:22,640 Speaker 1: And I think now Trump is he's looking for a 575 00:41:22,680 --> 00:41:26,680 Speaker 1: partner and he's not finding a partner. And I believe 576 00:41:26,719 --> 00:41:31,040 Speaker 1: it's because there isn't a partner. Yes, there's opposition to 577 00:41:31,080 --> 00:41:36,480 Speaker 1: the Mullahs, there's no question. But the Kurds distrust the Aziris. 578 00:41:37,160 --> 00:41:42,359 Speaker 1: The Aziris distrust the Balush. The Blush distrust the Armenians. 579 00:41:42,960 --> 00:41:47,800 Speaker 1: The Armenians. I mean, there are other non Persian groups 580 00:41:47,840 --> 00:41:52,200 Speaker 1: that don't like the Iyatolas, but they don't unite. They 581 00:41:52,239 --> 00:41:58,840 Speaker 1: distrust each other. So the opposition is fragmented. Polavi, the 582 00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:03,480 Speaker 1: crown Prince that everybody's hoping for, he's not. I mean, 583 00:42:03,520 --> 00:42:07,480 Speaker 1: he's got some support, but he doesn't have mass support. 584 00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:11,239 Speaker 1: In fact, he's been a reluctant prince for most of 585 00:42:11,280 --> 00:42:14,560 Speaker 1: his life. People don't know this about him. He's lived 586 00:42:14,600 --> 00:42:19,080 Speaker 1: most of his life outside of Iran, and apparently, from 587 00:42:19,120 --> 00:42:22,680 Speaker 1: my understanding, his own children don't speak Persian, which is 588 00:42:22,719 --> 00:42:25,360 Speaker 1: a big thing down there. So they're like, well, you 589 00:42:25,920 --> 00:42:28,160 Speaker 1: you want to be our king, but your own children 590 00:42:28,200 --> 00:42:32,600 Speaker 1: can't even speak our language. So what I'm saying is 591 00:42:33,200 --> 00:42:35,640 Speaker 1: the crown Prince, I don't think is the answer. And 592 00:42:35,680 --> 00:42:38,920 Speaker 1: to be fair, Trump realizes that. That's why he say, 593 00:42:38,960 --> 00:42:44,200 Speaker 1: look nice man, educated man, cosmopolitan or bane man, you know, 594 00:42:44,239 --> 00:42:47,719 Speaker 1: a cultured man. But he goes this, No, I can't 595 00:42:47,800 --> 00:42:50,120 Speaker 1: install him. If I put him in, he's going to 596 00:42:50,160 --> 00:42:52,880 Speaker 1: come across like an American puppet and they're going to 597 00:42:52,920 --> 00:42:57,040 Speaker 1: overthrow him within three to six months. So the problem 598 00:42:57,080 --> 00:43:00,200 Speaker 1: now is not the war. The problem now is what 599 00:43:00,280 --> 00:43:04,719 Speaker 1: comes after the war. That's why. To be honest, I 600 00:43:04,960 --> 00:43:08,479 Speaker 1: thought Trump was going to break them and break them 601 00:43:08,520 --> 00:43:12,560 Speaker 1: and break them until the Ayatolas sign on the dotted 602 00:43:12,600 --> 00:43:18,280 Speaker 1: line and sign everything away. But now that's been taken 603 00:43:18,360 --> 00:43:22,160 Speaker 1: off the table because Trump is calling for unconditional surrender. 604 00:43:23,640 --> 00:43:25,800 Speaker 1: I'll uh, you know, world War two. In other words, 605 00:43:25,880 --> 00:43:30,080 Speaker 1: no Hitler has to go, Mussolini has to go, Tojo 606 00:43:30,239 --> 00:43:34,320 Speaker 1: has to go, period, full stop. Trump is now saying 607 00:43:35,200 --> 00:43:40,640 Speaker 1: the Ayatolas must go. So that means, Jake, this is 608 00:43:40,680 --> 00:43:43,839 Speaker 1: now a war to the end. It is a war 609 00:43:44,120 --> 00:43:45,080 Speaker 1: to the finish. 610 00:43:45,520 --> 00:43:52,640 Speaker 4: Final word to you, Jake, Well, yeah, you know, we'll 611 00:43:52,640 --> 00:43:54,000 Speaker 4: see what happens. 612 00:43:54,520 --> 00:43:58,400 Speaker 6: Oh that's all I can say. And I wish him 613 00:43:58,480 --> 00:44:03,240 Speaker 6: luck and uh, maybe we'll have this discussion in another 614 00:44:03,360 --> 00:44:06,280 Speaker 6: few months and we'll see him see fingers crossed. 615 00:44:06,400 --> 00:44:09,279 Speaker 1: I'm with you, fingers crossed, and I want it to 616 00:44:09,400 --> 00:44:12,239 Speaker 1: end well. I hope it ends well. I hope it 617 00:44:12,360 --> 00:44:17,200 Speaker 1: ends well. I pray it ends well. But look, you know, 618 00:44:17,719 --> 00:44:21,480 Speaker 1: in private, Trump is quoted as saying this, this is 619 00:44:21,520 --> 00:44:26,800 Speaker 1: the riskiest gambit of my entire presidency, first term, second term. 620 00:44:27,239 --> 00:44:30,839 Speaker 1: He knows it. This is you know. Now, it could 621 00:44:30,840 --> 00:44:34,600 Speaker 1: be very high reward or it could end in disaster. 622 00:44:36,080 --> 00:44:39,759 Speaker 1: And so we shall see, we shall see. But now 623 00:44:39,760 --> 00:44:43,480 Speaker 1: he's going all in on unconditional surrender. He sends his 624 00:44:43,600 --> 00:44:47,920 Speaker 1: victory militarily. He has the iyatolas now on the ropes. 625 00:44:48,400 --> 00:44:51,000 Speaker 1: And just to show you, by the way, just very quick, 626 00:44:52,000 --> 00:44:57,279 Speaker 1: how confident he is a victory care stormer who, by 627 00:44:57,320 --> 00:45:00,880 Speaker 1: the way, to me, is just a low life you, 628 00:45:01,280 --> 00:45:05,760 Speaker 1: a low life, backstabbing little judas. Okay, the Prime Minister 629 00:45:05,840 --> 00:45:09,319 Speaker 1: of Britain, Remember, initially he didn't want us to use 630 00:45:09,360 --> 00:45:13,400 Speaker 1: his bases, British bases, and any kind of backtracked a 631 00:45:13,440 --> 00:45:17,440 Speaker 1: little bit, and then he was lecturing Trump how Europe 632 00:45:17,480 --> 00:45:20,319 Speaker 1: doesn't stand behind him on this war, and you know, 633 00:45:20,840 --> 00:45:23,480 Speaker 1: so he said, we don't want any part of it. 634 00:45:23,680 --> 00:45:26,680 Speaker 1: We want no part of this war, you know, despite 635 00:45:26,680 --> 00:45:28,879 Speaker 1: the fact that how many times have we protected Great 636 00:45:28,880 --> 00:45:35,759 Speaker 1: Britain How many times? Okay, but let let that go now, 637 00:45:36,280 --> 00:45:41,960 Speaker 1: because they're looking at this spectacular military victory and how 638 00:45:42,080 --> 00:45:46,560 Speaker 1: Iran's military and their air defenses and their navy and 639 00:45:46,600 --> 00:45:50,880 Speaker 1: their air force and their their ballistic missiles are evaporating 640 00:45:51,000 --> 00:45:55,400 Speaker 1: in front of our eyes. Now, Carrot Starmer wants to 641 00:45:55,480 --> 00:46:00,120 Speaker 1: join the winning team. So we called up Trump and said, 642 00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:02,040 Speaker 1: but you know, we can send a warship or two. 643 00:46:02,800 --> 00:46:06,040 Speaker 1: You know, I'm willing to authorize about say twenty twenty 644 00:46:06,080 --> 00:46:10,239 Speaker 1: five British fighter jets to participate now along with you 645 00:46:10,320 --> 00:46:14,120 Speaker 1: in Israel and the bombing campaign. In other words, now 646 00:46:14,160 --> 00:46:19,320 Speaker 1: that we see that you're winning militarily, that this military campaign, 647 00:46:19,760 --> 00:46:25,400 Speaker 1: you're wiping them out. Now there, Johnny, come latelies. Now, hey, 648 00:46:25,480 --> 00:46:29,760 Speaker 1: you guys are winning. Let's join the winning side. Now. 649 00:46:29,840 --> 00:46:33,560 Speaker 1: To Trump's credit, God bless him, he told Kero Starmer 650 00:46:33,600 --> 00:46:37,640 Speaker 1: get lost, basically forgive me. He don't the blank off. 651 00:46:39,040 --> 00:46:40,719 Speaker 1: He said, no, no, no, no, no, I don't need 652 00:46:40,800 --> 00:46:45,279 Speaker 1: fair weather friends. Okay, Now, now you want to jump 653 00:46:45,320 --> 00:46:49,200 Speaker 1: on the bandwagon because we're winning. So he told them 654 00:46:49,440 --> 00:46:53,440 Speaker 1: keep your warships. Keep your fighter jets. We don't want 655 00:46:53,480 --> 00:46:58,520 Speaker 1: a bullet from you. Don't give us any assistance. We're 656 00:46:58,520 --> 00:47:02,239 Speaker 1: going to finish it with is on our own. You 657 00:47:02,320 --> 00:47:05,759 Speaker 1: weren't with us at the beginning. When I needed you, 658 00:47:05,760 --> 00:47:10,920 Speaker 1: you weren't with me. So hasta la vista baby, kiss off. 659 00:47:12,680 --> 00:47:17,480 Speaker 1: Oh he's now told the Europeans basically, I don't need you. 660 00:47:19,280 --> 00:47:23,399 Speaker 1: When I needed you, you weren't interested. Well, now you're 661 00:47:23,440 --> 00:47:25,960 Speaker 1: not going to partake in the fruits of this victory. 662 00:47:26,760 --> 00:47:30,600 Speaker 1: Six one seven two sixty six sixty eight sixty eight 663 00:47:30,880 --> 00:47:37,040 Speaker 1: is the number Carrie in West Bridgewater. Thanks for holding Carrie, 664 00:47:37,200 --> 00:47:37,840 Speaker 1: and welcome. 665 00:47:39,520 --> 00:47:40,680 Speaker 3: Good morning, Jeff. 666 00:47:41,160 --> 00:47:42,000 Speaker 1: Hi carry Jeff. 667 00:47:44,200 --> 00:47:50,840 Speaker 3: I have still not heard a convincing argument that Iran 668 00:47:51,160 --> 00:47:55,680 Speaker 3: was an imminent threat to the United States. I just 669 00:47:55,800 --> 00:47:59,120 Speaker 3: haven't heard that. And I'm a three time Trump voter. 670 00:47:59,600 --> 00:48:02,319 Speaker 3: If I could vote for him for another term, I 671 00:48:02,320 --> 00:48:07,640 Speaker 3: would vote for him. I just I have I have 672 00:48:07,719 --> 00:48:11,719 Speaker 3: some doubts that this is actually going to be successful. 673 00:48:11,880 --> 00:48:15,359 Speaker 3: And I'm not America first. I'm at this point, I'm 674 00:48:15,400 --> 00:48:22,279 Speaker 3: America only. I frankly, I don't care if the Iranians 675 00:48:22,320 --> 00:48:27,480 Speaker 3: ever breathe a breath of freedom. That's not our responsibility. Frankly, 676 00:48:27,560 --> 00:48:30,160 Speaker 3: if they wanted to be free for fifty years they 677 00:48:30,239 --> 00:48:32,759 Speaker 3: haven't been, they would have fought for it a heck 678 00:48:32,760 --> 00:48:36,799 Speaker 3: of a lot sooner they would have. The men, if 679 00:48:36,800 --> 00:48:42,960 Speaker 3: they're already there, the men would have aggressively tried to 680 00:48:43,000 --> 00:48:46,560 Speaker 3: get their freedom themselves and and free their women and 681 00:48:46,640 --> 00:48:50,239 Speaker 3: children from this tyranny. But they but they didn't. I 682 00:48:50,320 --> 00:48:53,640 Speaker 3: just think that as long as they are Muslims in 683 00:48:53,680 --> 00:48:56,720 Speaker 3: the world there, the world is never going to know peace. 684 00:48:57,680 --> 00:49:01,200 Speaker 3: They're they're they're just not a peaceful people. They're just 685 00:49:01,360 --> 00:49:06,880 Speaker 3: not And the fact that they haven't rallied around Trump 686 00:49:06,960 --> 00:49:10,200 Speaker 3: and you know, oh, thank you, thank you. Yes, we 687 00:49:10,239 --> 00:49:13,640 Speaker 3: appreciate the dancing in the street and all of that stuff. Okay, 688 00:49:13,800 --> 00:49:18,279 Speaker 3: now we need you. Where are they They're nowhere. So 689 00:49:18,520 --> 00:49:21,760 Speaker 3: I just you know, we still don't have the Save Act. 690 00:49:22,600 --> 00:49:25,960 Speaker 3: You know, That's that's what's important. I think too, you know, 691 00:49:26,120 --> 00:49:29,360 Speaker 3: Americans and America first is we want the Save Act. 692 00:49:29,520 --> 00:49:33,800 Speaker 3: But no, we're too busy, you know, playing around in Iran. 693 00:49:34,239 --> 00:49:38,640 Speaker 3: It's just I'm not convinced that this was the right move. 694 00:49:38,960 --> 00:49:41,560 Speaker 3: Maybe it was. Maybe there is an argument to be 695 00:49:41,640 --> 00:49:44,279 Speaker 3: made that they were an imminent threat. I think they 696 00:49:44,320 --> 00:49:47,200 Speaker 3: were more a threat to Israel, and I don't think 697 00:49:47,280 --> 00:49:52,480 Speaker 3: anyone should die for Israel. I just don't. 698 00:49:53,400 --> 00:49:57,000 Speaker 1: Well, Carrie, look, the argument that Trump has made is 699 00:49:57,360 --> 00:50:01,719 Speaker 1: that they are about seven they or seven to ten 700 00:50:01,840 --> 00:50:06,920 Speaker 1: days away from enriching uranium to about eighty ninety percent. 701 00:50:07,840 --> 00:50:10,560 Speaker 1: That would have given them the ability to create up 702 00:50:10,560 --> 00:50:15,600 Speaker 1: to eleven bombs, that's the argument, And that their ballistic 703 00:50:15,719 --> 00:50:20,200 Speaker 1: missile program was so advanced that they could then within 704 00:50:20,480 --> 00:50:27,359 Speaker 1: a matter of weeks attach these nuclear weapons to an 705 00:50:27,400 --> 00:50:31,680 Speaker 1: intercontinental ballistic missile, and that then they could then hit 706 00:50:31,800 --> 00:50:33,719 Speaker 1: Israel or hit Europe.
