1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:04,360 Speaker 1: The unmitigated gall for Biden and Blincoln to take partial 2 00:00:04,480 --> 00:00:08,760 Speaker 1: credit for getting the hostages released today. The fact is 3 00:00:09,160 --> 00:00:14,680 Speaker 1: Trump used Teddy Roosevelt's diplomatic ground book of speak softly 4 00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:17,080 Speaker 1: and carry a big stick. 5 00:00:17,360 --> 00:00:19,040 Speaker 2: Of b two bombers. 6 00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:21,040 Speaker 3: That is such a key element. 7 00:00:21,079 --> 00:00:23,560 Speaker 4: I brought this up with Dan Camplis yesterday, Ryan Shuling 8 00:00:23,640 --> 00:00:27,000 Speaker 4: filling in for Michael Brown on the situation along with 9 00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:31,880 Speaker 4: Dragon Redbeard, and that is the taking out of the 10 00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:37,560 Speaker 4: nuclear facilities of Iran was tantamount to this deal getting done. 11 00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:41,120 Speaker 4: It was the stick and the carrot and stick approach. 12 00:00:41,159 --> 00:00:43,640 Speaker 4: Speaks softly, carry the big stick. You got to show 13 00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:47,080 Speaker 4: that you're willing and able to do what Trump did, 14 00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:49,120 Speaker 4: that he's a little bit of a wild card, and 15 00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:52,920 Speaker 4: that he'll do it again. And Iron certainly feared that. 16 00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:58,200 Speaker 4: And they were the ones bankrolling supporting Hamas, and Hamas 17 00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:00,200 Speaker 4: just ran out of options on the chessboard. 18 00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:02,440 Speaker 3: They were checkmated, and that's what happened there. 19 00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:07,000 Speaker 4: This was pressure from the outside, from the Qataris, the Saudis, 20 00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:10,640 Speaker 4: those in the region that would have interest maybe different 21 00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:12,880 Speaker 4: from Israel's, but this couldn't be be. 22 00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:17,440 Speaker 3: To look like an American endeavor. Solely and it was not. 23 00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:21,559 Speaker 4: It was a collective effort that Donald Trump spearheaded and won. 24 00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:26,000 Speaker 4: And that leads to this conversation with Denish Desuza. The 25 00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:30,040 Speaker 4: movie The Dragon's Prophecy. It is now available for streaming online. 26 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:33,119 Speaker 4: That is the website. It was in theaters last week, 27 00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:36,160 Speaker 4: including right here in Colorado. It is now available to 28 00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:41,640 Speaker 4: stream online The Dragon's Prophecy and joining us the executive producer, 29 00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:44,280 Speaker 4: creator of that film and many others that you no 30 00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:47,440 Speaker 4: doubt have watched over the last several years. Densh de 31 00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 4: Suza proud to have him as our guest. Densh, thank 32 00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:52,960 Speaker 4: you for your time. As always, Hey, it's. 33 00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:57,200 Speaker 2: My pleasure delighted with this new film, which seems to 34 00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:03,440 Speaker 2: fit so well into occurrent and the film in a 35 00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:07,280 Speaker 2: way tries to see things from the widest perspective, in 36 00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:10,200 Speaker 2: other words, not just the political, but also the spiritual 37 00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:11,080 Speaker 2: and the biblical. 38 00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:15,600 Speaker 4: And to your point, Danesh, when you started production on this, 39 00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:18,840 Speaker 4: there's no way you could have anticipated it lining up 40 00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:21,960 Speaker 4: almost exactly with the events of what we've seen over 41 00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:26,040 Speaker 4: this last week, with this unprecedented success by President Trump 42 00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:28,960 Speaker 4: in striking a peace deal in the Middle East, a 43 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:31,840 Speaker 4: ceasefire in Gaza, return of the hostages. 44 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:32,799 Speaker 3: Those who were alive. 45 00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:35,399 Speaker 4: There were only twenty remaining, all of the male, none 46 00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:38,359 Speaker 4: of them female. And he had this to say today, 47 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 4: speaking before the Kanesse, the chamber of the Legislature in Israel. 48 00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:46,760 Speaker 5: This is not only the end of the war. This 49 00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:49,320 Speaker 5: is the end of the age of terror and death 50 00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:53,279 Speaker 5: and the beginning of the age of faith and hope, 51 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:58,079 Speaker 5: end of God. It's the start of a grand conquord 52 00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:01,920 Speaker 5: and lasting harmony for his and all the nations of 53 00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:06,080 Speaker 5: what will soon be a truly magnificent region. 54 00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:07,679 Speaker 3: I believe that so strongly. 55 00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:12,520 Speaker 5: This is the historic dawn of a new Middle East 56 00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:14,440 Speaker 5: and the nation. 57 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:18,519 Speaker 4: Not only is that true, I think this permanently rebukes 58 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:21,120 Speaker 4: any criticisms of him that we have heard, you and 59 00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:25,520 Speaker 4: me both of Donald Trump is Adolf Hitler. It's so ridiculous. 60 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:28,280 Speaker 4: He's the exact opposite of that. He is a peacetime president. 61 00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:31,520 Speaker 4: He's a president four piece. He is stopt now eight 62 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:34,880 Speaker 4: wars in just over eight months in office. It's an 63 00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:39,600 Speaker 4: incredible feat and accomplishment here. I'm just wondering from your perspective, Tonesh, 64 00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:41,200 Speaker 4: and making this film. 65 00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:42,720 Speaker 3: The end of this wars. 66 00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:46,000 Speaker 4: We hope that this is what that means for the region, 67 00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:47,960 Speaker 4: and the fact that President Trump was the one to 68 00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:48,920 Speaker 4: broker this deal. 69 00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:54,839 Speaker 2: I think Trump's genius is to see possibilities where other 70 00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:58,840 Speaker 2: people don't see it. In my adult lifetime, I've lived through, 71 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:01,160 Speaker 2: you know, the Nixon Plan and the Carter Plan, the 72 00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 2: Clinton Plan. So many people have made attempts, and yet 73 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:08,640 Speaker 2: they haven't really even gotten very much off the ground. 74 00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:13,200 Speaker 2: It's almost like Trump comes in with a different perspective. 75 00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:16,360 Speaker 2: The perspective really more of like a real estate developer. 76 00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:18,080 Speaker 3: He looks at the rubble in. 77 00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:20,159 Speaker 2: Gaza and he goes like, this is not good. You know, 78 00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:24,040 Speaker 2: we need buildings here, We need prosperity, We need people 79 00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:26,320 Speaker 2: in suits going to work, and we need maybe a 80 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:29,800 Speaker 2: Trump hotel. And the other thing about Trump is that 81 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:34,440 Speaker 2: he understands the importance of bringing in the other Muslim countries, 82 00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:41,040 Speaker 2: the saudiast and the Gulf Kingdoms and the United Arab 83 00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:44,200 Speaker 2: Emirates and so on, so that this is not perceived 84 00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:47,400 Speaker 2: to be some kind of an American reign over Gaza 85 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:53,120 Speaker 2: or Israeli supervision over a kind of reluctant population of Gaza, 86 00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:58,159 Speaker 2: but rather it is an international setup to offer these 87 00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:03,640 Speaker 2: people who have endured war or in bloodshed a better path. Now, 88 00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:05,720 Speaker 2: if the Bible is to be believed, it's difficult to 89 00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:09,040 Speaker 2: solve these problems permanently, and maybe that won't happen till 90 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,480 Speaker 2: the end of time. But it's not to say that 91 00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:16,800 Speaker 2: in the meantime you cannot make intermediate progress and try 92 00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:19,960 Speaker 2: to at least get things to simmer down from a 93 00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:23,280 Speaker 2: terrible war that has wreaked a lot of havoc over 94 00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 2: the last two years. 95 00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:26,479 Speaker 3: Denish Desuza our guest. 96 00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:30,600 Speaker 4: His film The Dragon's Prophecy now available online for streaming, 97 00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:34,680 Speaker 4: and it covers the events and the aftermath of October seventh, 98 00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:38,920 Speaker 4: twenty twenty three into nesh. This film has a strong 99 00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:43,599 Speaker 4: thread line of spirituality in it. The foundations of the 100 00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:46,480 Speaker 4: religions of the world, really the three most major religions 101 00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:48,839 Speaker 4: of the world in the Muslim faith, but then also 102 00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 4: Judeo Christian roots. You talk about that a bit with 103 00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:55,160 Speaker 4: Mike Haakabe, who is now the ambassador to Israel. You 104 00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:57,599 Speaker 4: speak about it, I think quite eloquently in this film. 105 00:05:57,880 --> 00:05:59,640 Speaker 4: And how I want to tie that all together with 106 00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:03,159 Speaker 4: President and Trump is I think we've seen a renewed 107 00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:07,800 Speaker 4: and perhaps a new spiritual purpose in our president since 108 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 4: the assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania, and where he sees 109 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:13,640 Speaker 4: not only his place in the world, but his place 110 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:16,360 Speaker 4: in all of time. How much do you think that 111 00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:18,960 Speaker 4: perspective that he's gained from them may have contributed to 112 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:21,200 Speaker 4: his ability to see the bigger picture? 113 00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:26,600 Speaker 3: As you stated, I think that Trump his mind. 114 00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:29,640 Speaker 2: Is in many ways very secular. He looks at things 115 00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:32,720 Speaker 2: kind of like, you know, what is the probability that 116 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:35,560 Speaker 2: my head could have turned in a slightly different direction 117 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:39,760 Speaker 2: than he almost gives it like casino odds. So he 118 00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 2: doesn't start out at the spiritual, but I think he 119 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:47,800 Speaker 2: realizes that he has lived through such improbable events that 120 00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:50,400 Speaker 2: something bigger must be at work. And I think something 121 00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:53,480 Speaker 2: bigger actually is at work. We see in the Bible 122 00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:56,479 Speaker 2: a number of cases where where God in a sense 123 00:06:56,680 --> 00:07:00,720 Speaker 2: uses and directs figures, even figures who aren't particularly religious 124 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:04,159 Speaker 2: on their own, but nevertheless they are moved into sort 125 00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:08,760 Speaker 2: of this larger unfolding plot of biblical history and even 126 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 2: biblical prophecy. And I think Trump is looming as one 127 00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:16,120 Speaker 2: of those sort of biblical sized figures, larger than life, 128 00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:20,720 Speaker 2: who is bringing about remarkable changes in a region that is, 129 00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:24,800 Speaker 2: as you say, the most religiously contested region on planet Earth. 130 00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:28,600 Speaker 4: The Dragons prophecyfilm dot Com. That's the website where you 131 00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:32,000 Speaker 4: can find a Dnesh Desuza our guest. Kind of a 132 00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:34,200 Speaker 4: two part question here, Denish, because you have been in 133 00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:37,640 Speaker 4: the news recently, and I've been applauding your remarks because 134 00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:39,680 Speaker 4: I come at this from a very similar angle. I 135 00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:43,520 Speaker 4: believe as you do, and that is unequivocal, unwavering support 136 00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:46,400 Speaker 4: for Israel and that we wouldn't even think to question 137 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:49,480 Speaker 4: that based on our shared roots, heritage, our shared interest, 138 00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:52,520 Speaker 4: the alliance that is therein And we've seen the anti 139 00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:55,640 Speaker 4: Semitism on the left on college campuses, and I think 140 00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:57,720 Speaker 4: I've talked to you about that as well in the past. 141 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:01,280 Speaker 4: But there's this new uprising and I'm not sure what 142 00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:04,800 Speaker 4: the genesis of this is pun intended with the likes 143 00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:07,640 Speaker 4: of Candae Owans, Tucker Carlson, and you've taken them to 144 00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:10,480 Speaker 4: task about some of the things that they've said about 145 00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:12,120 Speaker 4: Israel and about the Jewish people. 146 00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:15,040 Speaker 3: What was your main point in focus there and why 147 00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:16,320 Speaker 3: did you feel was important to. 148 00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:23,400 Speaker 2: Say, well, it's important because it is. What they're doing 149 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:29,000 Speaker 2: is they are fracturing the Trump coalition, the MAGA coalition. 150 00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:33,280 Speaker 2: I think they're ultimately hurting the interests of the United States, 151 00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:37,720 Speaker 2: and they are helping the two worst groups in the world, 152 00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:41,040 Speaker 2: which is the cultural left on the one hand, and 153 00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:45,560 Speaker 2: on the other hand, these radical Jihadis. And those two groups, 154 00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:48,440 Speaker 2: by the way, are in a kind of strange bedfellow's 155 00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:52,320 Speaker 2: alliance with each other. This might seem really odd because 156 00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:56,200 Speaker 2: neither group can fit comfortably in the other group's world. 157 00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:59,520 Speaker 2: They have very different end goals, but nevertheless they are 158 00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:02,840 Speaker 2: united in a kind of common hatred. And who do 159 00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:05,400 Speaker 2: they hate, well, they hate on the one hand the 160 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:08,959 Speaker 2: Jews and Israel and on the other hand, Christians and 161 00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:12,320 Speaker 2: the West. So it seems to me strategically obvious that 162 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:15,640 Speaker 2: Jews and Christians need to come closer together in a 163 00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:20,600 Speaker 2: united front against these sort of diabolical foes. And that's 164 00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:25,440 Speaker 2: why it's particularly exasperating and dismaying to see people on 165 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:27,720 Speaker 2: our own side. I mean, I kind of understand why 166 00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 2: the left behaves the way it does because they're allied 167 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:34,240 Speaker 2: with the Jihads, but for people on our side to 168 00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:38,000 Speaker 2: essentially drive a wedge between America and Israel to try 169 00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 2: to imply that there's something about Christianity that involves sort 170 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:43,880 Speaker 2: of kicking out the Old Testament, as if we don't 171 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:46,080 Speaker 2: need God the Father, we only need God the Son 172 00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:49,360 Speaker 2: and God the Holy Spirit, reducing the Trinity from three 173 00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:51,480 Speaker 2: to two. I mean, all of this seems to me 174 00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:55,800 Speaker 2: politically absurd, blasphemous, bad on so many different counts that 175 00:09:55,880 --> 00:10:00,120 Speaker 2: I felt almost like morally obliged to speak out very 176 00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:01,600 Speaker 2: stridently about it. 177 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:06,800 Speaker 4: And Denish Desuza really paints a wonderful picture of that juncture, 178 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:12,240 Speaker 4: that joining together of the Judeo Christian value system of 179 00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:15,840 Speaker 4: our history, that shared heritage, as Densh mentions the Old Testament, 180 00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:19,000 Speaker 4: the New Testament derives from it. I know that Mike Huckabee, 181 00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:22,200 Speaker 4: who's a reverend himself, believes in that as well. And 182 00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:24,000 Speaker 4: you can find out more about the film once again 183 00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 4: online the Dragon's prophecyfilm dot com. Den That's just one 184 00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:30,880 Speaker 4: more question about our current political climate and that maybe 185 00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:33,880 Speaker 4: a daylight today can help lower the temperature a bit 186 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:36,400 Speaker 4: because of what President Trump has been able to accomplish. 187 00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:38,880 Speaker 4: But I want to get your reaction to what happened 188 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:42,079 Speaker 4: a month ago with the assassination of Charlie Kirk. 189 00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:44,160 Speaker 3: You are a prominent voice on the right as well. 190 00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:46,840 Speaker 4: You are labeled by the left as a conspiracy theorist, 191 00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:49,600 Speaker 4: as a far right extremist, and I think these labels 192 00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:52,040 Speaker 4: are harmful and that they may make you a target 193 00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:53,080 Speaker 4: in a similar way. 194 00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:55,520 Speaker 3: What was your reaction to the death of. 195 00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:58,720 Speaker 4: Charlie Kirk, what the motive might have been behind it, 196 00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:00,920 Speaker 4: and what the left is doing to drive it. Do 197 00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:03,160 Speaker 4: you fear for your own personal safety if you made 198 00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 4: adjustments to measures and how you conduct security for yourself personally. 199 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:13,560 Speaker 2: I used to do a whirlwind of campus touring for 200 00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:17,960 Speaker 2: really two decades, starting in the early to mid nineteen nineties, 201 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:22,880 Speaker 2: but it was a safer time. There were showdowns and 202 00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:25,280 Speaker 2: students who would run out of the auditorium screaming, but 203 00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:28,239 Speaker 2: I never really had to worry about being physically attacked, 204 00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:31,680 Speaker 2: let alone being shot in the next So it's a 205 00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:34,800 Speaker 2: mark of how much our public culture has become degraded. 206 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:37,600 Speaker 2: I think it's also the case that you now have 207 00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:42,720 Speaker 2: these very violent Antifa and trans networks. They actually train 208 00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:46,280 Speaker 2: for violence, and they have an ideology that makes them 209 00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:49,080 Speaker 2: very susceptible to it. The ideology is that they are 210 00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:53,080 Speaker 2: fighting fascism. The other side, the Republicans and the Christians 211 00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:56,360 Speaker 2: are fascists, and they have a right to do quote. 212 00:11:57,160 --> 00:12:00,520 Speaker 2: They have a right to oppose them by any means necessary. 213 00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:03,160 Speaker 2: So the shooter in a way is simply in a 214 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:07,440 Speaker 2: way following through on this kind of a debased logic. 215 00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:10,720 Speaker 2: I do think that I was a Charlie's funeral right 216 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:13,040 Speaker 2: up there in the front, and I did feel that 217 00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:17,280 Speaker 2: there was a spirit of revival, of invigoration, of restoration. 218 00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 2: And I think that this film, The Dragon's Prophecy fits 219 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:23,200 Speaker 2: into that mood very well, because while it takes you 220 00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:27,040 Speaker 2: into some dark places October seventh, in a sense that 221 00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:31,000 Speaker 2: even unfurls the Devil's Handbook, the Devil is the Dragon, 222 00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:33,679 Speaker 2: by the way, and the title of the film. Ultimately 223 00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:35,800 Speaker 2: the film leaves you, I think, on a note of 224 00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:39,960 Speaker 2: being spiritually uplifted. And so I think people who watch 225 00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:43,320 Speaker 2: this film will come out very invigorated. 226 00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:46,560 Speaker 4: As I am after all of the Neshasus's films. I 227 00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:49,360 Speaker 4: feel invigorated. I could tell from the trailer and then 228 00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:52,800 Speaker 4: also the content of this and it's woven so nicely 229 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:56,440 Speaker 4: in a storytelling manner about the history of the religioncy 230 00:12:56,440 --> 00:12:59,280 Speaker 4: in that region and why the conflict exists in the 231 00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:04,000 Speaker 4: first place, and what the long term ramifications are for 232 00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:06,840 Speaker 4: what he could not predict and Esh could not predict, 233 00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:09,280 Speaker 4: and that is the Trump peace accord that has just 234 00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:09,960 Speaker 4: been struck. 235 00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:12,920 Speaker 3: Now, Danesh, I did want to get you to respond to. 236 00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:17,040 Speaker 4: Something that Christian Amanpur from CNN said today. This is 237 00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:20,640 Speaker 4: making some headlines and because of your background and knowledge 238 00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:24,679 Speaker 4: now having accumulated from making this film, what your response 239 00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:28,520 Speaker 4: is to her characterization of how Hamas treated the hostages here. 240 00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:31,520 Speaker 6: And I think for sure people who start to talk 241 00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:34,640 Speaker 6: to the hostages have only just been released, will find 242 00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:37,720 Speaker 6: that it will take a long long time for them 243 00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:42,480 Speaker 6: to recover physically but also mentally. It's been a terrible, 244 00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:45,200 Speaker 6: terrible two years for them because not only are they there, 245 00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:48,840 Speaker 6: you know, they're probably been treated better than the average gasen, 246 00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:52,200 Speaker 6: because they are the pawns and the chips that Hamas had. 247 00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:54,520 Speaker 6: Now Hamas has given up all its leverage by the 248 00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:57,199 Speaker 6: way by giving them all up, so that is a victory. 249 00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:00,400 Speaker 4: May she not be wrong and that these high sssages 250 00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:03,079 Speaker 4: the nash were treated better than the average gasin by 251 00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:05,880 Speaker 4: Hamas a. 252 00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:10,320 Speaker 2: Very strange thing to say. She's quite right that the 253 00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:14,760 Speaker 2: Gozens don't value the lives of their own people. I 254 00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:16,760 Speaker 2: was thinking the other day, you know, why is it 255 00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:20,440 Speaker 2: the case that Israel has never taken any hostages? And 256 00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:22,720 Speaker 2: of course you might say, well, Israel is better, they 257 00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:25,480 Speaker 2: don't do things like that. But the real answer to 258 00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:28,480 Speaker 2: that the question is simply this, Israel doesn't take hostages 259 00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:31,000 Speaker 2: because it wouldn't do them any good. Imagine if you 260 00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:34,320 Speaker 2: grabbed a bunch of Palestinian women and children, Hamas would say, 261 00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:36,560 Speaker 2: go ahead and kill them. We don't really care. So 262 00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:39,480 Speaker 2: there's a sense in which Christian Amanpur is right, But 263 00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:42,920 Speaker 2: I think that makes a different point than the one 264 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:45,520 Speaker 2: she's trying to make. The real point to make is 265 00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:48,440 Speaker 2: that Hamas doesn't really care about its own people and 266 00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:51,640 Speaker 2: is perfectly happy to sacrifice them, really for nothing. 267 00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:55,600 Speaker 4: The Dragon's prophecyfilm dot com. That's the website where you 268 00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:57,600 Speaker 4: can find it. You can stream it now. Was in 269 00:14:57,680 --> 00:15:01,880 Speaker 4: theaters last week. Danesh Desuza, our guest, Denesh, whenever you 270 00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:03,920 Speaker 4: put a film like this together, I like to ask 271 00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:07,360 Speaker 4: you the question in retrospect, what you really found out 272 00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:09,960 Speaker 4: afterward that you didn't know going in. You might have 273 00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:13,200 Speaker 4: some ideas going in and what you think you might encounter, 274 00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:17,280 Speaker 4: but what really jumped off the film for you that 275 00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:23,320 Speaker 4: you witnessed, that you encountered in putting this all together, Well, I've. 276 00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:25,760 Speaker 2: Made a bunch of films, and they have by and 277 00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:29,680 Speaker 2: large and political and historical. This film moves into the 278 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:33,560 Speaker 2: realm of the spiritual and even the prophetic. So I've 279 00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:36,520 Speaker 2: always had difficulty with the idea of being able to 280 00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:40,800 Speaker 2: forecast events before they even occur. And yet the Bible 281 00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:44,720 Speaker 2: is full of the sort of stunning predictions, such as 282 00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:47,040 Speaker 2: the Jews will be scattered to the ends of the earth, 283 00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:49,680 Speaker 2: and then they will come back, and not just come 284 00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:52,680 Speaker 2: back together again, They'll come back to the same land 285 00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:55,960 Speaker 2: that they left, they will restore their language, they will 286 00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:58,400 Speaker 2: eat the same food, they will worship the same God, 287 00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:01,640 Speaker 2: and all of this extra the really improbable type of 288 00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:05,160 Speaker 2: prediction then comes to pass in nineteen forty eight. So 289 00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:09,360 Speaker 2: the Bible sort of has its own sort of timetable 290 00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:13,120 Speaker 2: of unfolding events. And it also suggests this idea of 291 00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:15,880 Speaker 2: a world behind the world, in which the things we 292 00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:19,760 Speaker 2: see in front of us actually a reverberation of larger 293 00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:22,520 Speaker 2: forces of good and evil, and so all of this 294 00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:25,520 Speaker 2: I think has captivated me greatly, and I think that 295 00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:29,960 Speaker 2: that sense of mystery and wonder and spiritual profundity is 296 00:16:30,040 --> 00:16:32,360 Speaker 2: in this film. Many people have said it's my most 297 00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:35,760 Speaker 2: spectacular and most profound film, I think, but this is 298 00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:40,200 Speaker 2: the reason. The topics that it covers are inherently that way. 299 00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:42,720 Speaker 4: The Dragon's Prophecy the name of the film, and you 300 00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:47,120 Speaker 4: can find it online at the dragonsprophecyfilm dot com. Final question, Nash, 301 00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:50,360 Speaker 4: because I've always been fascinated with your story, with your background. 302 00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:52,080 Speaker 3: What brought you to America. 303 00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:55,360 Speaker 4: You served in the Reagan administration, You've been a lifelong 304 00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:59,200 Speaker 4: conservative voice. And how you might compare and contrast the 305 00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:02,280 Speaker 4: greatness of Reagan that was he was my favorite president 306 00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:06,040 Speaker 4: to what we are experiencing now with President Trump. Maybe 307 00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:09,359 Speaker 4: not a true conservative in every stripe, but you cannot 308 00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:11,440 Speaker 4: deny his accomplishments, his achievements. 309 00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:13,560 Speaker 3: How would you compare and contrast those two. 310 00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:20,720 Speaker 2: They're both larger than life figures. I think Reagan dominates 311 00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:23,679 Speaker 2: the second half of the twentieth century in much the 312 00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:28,600 Speaker 2: same way that FDR dominates the first half of it. Clearly. 313 00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:34,400 Speaker 2: Trump emerges initially as a kind of anti Obama. Obama 314 00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:38,440 Speaker 2: sets his plan in motion to remake America. He has 315 00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:41,520 Speaker 2: two terms to do it. He tries to extend that 316 00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:45,159 Speaker 2: through Biden, but Trump is his great nemesis. But Trump 317 00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:47,520 Speaker 2: is now rising above all that and proving to be 318 00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:50,879 Speaker 2: a massive figure in his own right and clearly the 319 00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:53,959 Speaker 2: dominant figure so far up the twenty first century. So 320 00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:56,480 Speaker 2: I think it's difficult to do a verdict on Trump 321 00:17:56,520 --> 00:17:59,520 Speaker 2: until he finishes his two terms, because you need a 322 00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:02,199 Speaker 2: little bit of that retrospective to be able to do that. 323 00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:04,800 Speaker 2: But I think it's quite clear he's proving to be 324 00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:09,639 Speaker 2: a massively consequential president and cementing his place in the 325 00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:11,200 Speaker 2: annals of American. 326 00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:14,720 Speaker 4: History, especially with the accomplishments over this last week or 327 00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:18,440 Speaker 4: so and punctuated today by his appearance in front of 328 00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:23,600 Speaker 4: the Kanesse and freeing the hostages Hamas was basically cudgeled 329 00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:26,320 Speaker 4: into doing so. And now there is a piece. Will 330 00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:28,480 Speaker 4: it be a lasting piece, We will see. But very 331 00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:31,119 Speaker 4: few presidents could have done, and in fact none have 332 00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:34,720 Speaker 4: done what President Trump just did. The Dragons prophecyfilm dot 333 00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:37,440 Speaker 4: com is where you can find his film The Dragon's Prophecy. 334 00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:41,080 Speaker 4: Always a fascinating conversation.

Also my conversation from last week with comedian 340 00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:58,280 Speaker 4: Michael Rapaport, who's been a strong pro Israel voice out there, 341 00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:01,640 Speaker 4: much to his own detriment in his own career. Ryan 342 00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:04,440 Speaker 4: Schuling filling in for Michael Brown, this is the situation 343 00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:05,080 Speaker 4: without him. 344 00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:08,960 Speaker 7: You wake up and you're reminded how bad the Colorado 345 00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:15,160 Speaker 7: economy is. We have businesses, especially restaurants closing. You try 346 00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:17,520 Speaker 7: to drive on the road and it's horrible with all 347 00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:22,479 Speaker 7: the potholes out there, and we're not a safe city. 348 00:19:23,119 --> 00:19:28,520 Speaker 7: But thank god, Governor Polus is learning the lyrics to 349 00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:32,080 Speaker 7: the Bad Buddy songs so he can sing along at 350 00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:32,879 Speaker 7: the Super Bowl. 351 00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:37,120 Speaker 4: I'm a little shocked he doesn't already know some I 352 00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:40,720 Speaker 4: am disappointed that he doesn't. And Alexa, thanks for pointing 353 00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:43,080 Speaker 4: that out, because I'm trying to think of the last 354 00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:48,360 Speaker 4: Jared Polish post on social media, specifically X that did 355 00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:51,800 Speaker 4: not get ratioed into the sun, meaning he has four more, 356 00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:56,600 Speaker 4: far more comments replying to his post than retweets or 357 00:19:57,240 --> 00:20:01,760 Speaker 4: likes or whatnot. So yeah, out of surprise, the guy's awkward, 358 00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:04,960 Speaker 4: and it continues with the bad bunny stuff you can 359 00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:08,480 Speaker 4: text in at three three one zero three. 360 00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:09,119 Speaker 3: Dragon. 361 00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:12,760 Speaker 4: I was thinking, even if you don't see the film 362 00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:15,879 Speaker 4: are interested in it, if there was swag that just 363 00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:18,840 Speaker 4: said the Dragon's prophecy on like a T shirt, that 364 00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:21,560 Speaker 4: that'd be something you could and should wear from Deneesh 365 00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:22,720 Speaker 4: to Suez's film. 366 00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:23,280 Speaker 3: And I liked. 367 00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:25,040 Speaker 8: I did go to his website and looked at it. 368 00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:27,080 Speaker 8: I really like the image of the dragon too. It's 369 00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:30,280 Speaker 8: a very I'm more partial to the medieval style of 370 00:20:30,359 --> 00:20:33,159 Speaker 8: dragons or the Asian style of dragon. It just it 371 00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:36,680 Speaker 8: feels much more imposing and powerful. And yeah, I don't 372 00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:37,439 Speaker 8: want to be on the. 373 00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:40,840 Speaker 4: Side of the dragon on this one, but Dragon's cool, 374 00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:44,240 Speaker 4: and it would be your prophecy and people would assume 375 00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:47,840 Speaker 4: that by watching you wear that shirt to some more 376 00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:50,800 Speaker 4: text at three three one zero three. Why is everyone 377 00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:53,199 Speaker 4: blaming tariffs for the drop in the stock market? They 378 00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:55,399 Speaker 4: don't think the government shutdown has anything to do with 379 00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:58,960 Speaker 4: it probably does. It's gonna be short term. These things 380 00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:02,240 Speaker 4: are generally resolved. All government workers will get their back pay. 381 00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:05,800 Speaker 4: That is, unless the Schumer shutdown continues, and in the 382 00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:07,760 Speaker 4: midst of it, the President of the United States makes 383 00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:12,000 Speaker 4: executive decisions to cut a lot of the leftist programs 384 00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:16,040 Speaker 4: and departments and employees that have infiltrated our government and 385 00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:19,280 Speaker 4: our three letter agencies and the deep state. Might be 386 00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:22,119 Speaker 4: a pruning time for the government. I would be a 387 00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:23,119 Speaker 4: okay with that. 388 00:21:23,359 --> 00:21:24,879 Speaker 8: How much longer do you think the shutdown is going 389 00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:25,080 Speaker 8: to go? 390 00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:29,800 Speaker 3: They'll resolve it before the end of the month, You think, oh, yeah, okay. 391 00:21:29,960 --> 00:21:32,560 Speaker 8: Because my own personal belief I have nothing to base 392 00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:35,159 Speaker 8: this on, is I think they want to create the 393 00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:38,200 Speaker 8: longest again shut down under Trump. I mean the first 394 00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:41,879 Speaker 8: one was what thirty seven days in his first term, 395 00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:44,080 Speaker 8: and so I'm thinking they're probably going to do something 396 00:21:44,119 --> 00:21:46,560 Speaker 8: like this and then see, look, President Trump's such a 397 00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:47,160 Speaker 8: bad president. 398 00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:49,479 Speaker 3: He's had two of the longest government shutdowns ever. 399 00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:52,240 Speaker 4: They don't have the facts on their side, obviously, but 400 00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:54,719 Speaker 4: they don't have the narrative either, especially Trump with this 401 00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:57,280 Speaker 4: big w that he just posted over in Israel. 402 00:21:57,560 --> 00:22:00,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, there's that and ending that war, and. 403 00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:04,840 Speaker 4: Then also they could pass a clean bill a CR. 404 00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:10,400 Speaker 4: The Republicans have already gotten three Democrats to crossover. Catherine 405 00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:13,840 Speaker 4: Cortez Mastow in a purple state which is turning red, 406 00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:17,520 Speaker 4: Nevada senator there has already voted with the Republicans to 407 00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:21,800 Speaker 4: pass the CR. So has Angus King, an independent who 408 00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:23,119 Speaker 4: caucuses with the Democrats. 409 00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:24,320 Speaker 3: In the purple state of Maine. 410 00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:28,439 Speaker 4: So is John Fetterman, everybody's favorite Democrat in the Senate, 411 00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:32,919 Speaker 4: purple state. But a Democrat that actually makes sense after 412 00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:35,960 Speaker 4: having a stroke. That should tell you a lot right there. 413 00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:38,399 Speaker 4: So you go from fifty three to fifty six. They 414 00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:40,680 Speaker 4: need to peel off four more Democrats. And I told 415 00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:43,280 Speaker 4: you to who to watch out for on these In 416 00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:45,960 Speaker 4: the twenty twenty sixth election, John oss Off is on 417 00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:48,800 Speaker 4: the ballot. He's a Democrat out of Georgia. That's a 418 00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:51,720 Speaker 4: red state. Okay, Biden wanted it was a fluke. They 419 00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:54,639 Speaker 4: elected two senators because the Republicans were ham handed and 420 00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:58,159 Speaker 4: mishandled a special runoff election there and both Warnock and 421 00:22:58,280 --> 00:22:59,440 Speaker 4: Osoff got elected. 422 00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:00,320 Speaker 3: It was a disaster. 423 00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:04,000 Speaker 4: But us Off, the more he stays on board with 424 00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:07,320 Speaker 4: this far left shut down. I think the worst his 425 00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:09,600 Speaker 4: chances are of getting reelected. And they were already pretty 426 00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:12,240 Speaker 4: slim to begin with, and Slim's about. 427 00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:13,879 Speaker 3: To leave town slim and none. 428 00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:17,879 Speaker 4: There you go, Patty, says Ryan, hearing that the bodies 429 00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:20,440 Speaker 4: of the hostages are not being released, says to me, 430 00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:23,879 Speaker 4: their bodies will show some horrible evidence of their torture dragging. 431 00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:25,480 Speaker 4: You made this point in a reply that I see 432 00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:28,200 Speaker 4: right there, that you think they don't even know where 433 00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:29,000 Speaker 4: the bodies are anymore. 434 00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:29,800 Speaker 3: That could be true. 435 00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:31,800 Speaker 8: I have no evidence to support that, but you know, 436 00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:34,919 Speaker 8: when you spread the hostages out with normal you know, 437 00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:41,280 Speaker 8: Palestinian families. Even a Al Jazeera reporter was holding a hostage, 438 00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:44,360 Speaker 8: So you shouldn't trust anything that they report over there 439 00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:48,520 Speaker 8: from that side, especially when a raporter was holding someone hostage. 440 00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:51,639 Speaker 3: They don't even know where they are anymore. No, and 441 00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:55,280 Speaker 3: I wouldn't be surprised at dragons exactly right on. 442 00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:58,159 Speaker 4: That, Christian, I'm on, poor, let's do it before and 443 00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:01,840 Speaker 4: after here they can't help themselves. I don't know where 444 00:24:01,880 --> 00:24:10,240 Speaker 4: this sympathy for terrorists lunatics comes from, but she's got it. Well, baby, 445 00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:14,160 Speaker 4: she's got it. Christian Amen por CNN from yesterday, and I. 446 00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:17,159 Speaker 6: Think for sure people who start to talk to the 447 00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:20,080 Speaker 6: hostages who've only just been released will find that it 448 00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:24,840 Speaker 6: will take a long long time for them to recover physically, 449 00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:28,360 Speaker 6: but also mentally. It's been a terrible, terrible two years 450 00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:31,119 Speaker 6: for them because not only are they there, you know, 451 00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:34,080 Speaker 6: they're probably been treated better than the average Garsen because 452 00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:37,119 Speaker 6: they are the pawns and the chips that Hamas had. 453 00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:39,720 Speaker 6: Now Hamas has given up all its leverage, by the way, 454 00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:42,160 Speaker 6: by giving them all up, So that is a victory 455 00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:43,959 Speaker 6: for the Israeli side. 456 00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:47,520 Speaker 4: If those hostages were treated better than the average Gasen 457 00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:49,760 Speaker 4: by Hamas, I would hate to see how the average 458 00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:54,640 Speaker 4: Gasen is treated. And of course this came completely firing 459 00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:58,600 Speaker 4: back on Amanpour and she took time yesterday to issue 460 00:24:58,600 --> 00:25:01,280 Speaker 4: this half hearted, if that apology of sorts. 461 00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:03,600 Speaker 6: Now earlier live on air, I spoke about what a 462 00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:06,600 Speaker 6: day of real joy this is for Israeli families whose 463 00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:09,359 Speaker 6: loved ones are finally being returned from two years of 464 00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:13,560 Speaker 6: horrific Hamas captivity, and for civilians in Gaza who finally 465 00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:16,920 Speaker 6: had reprieved from two years of brutal and deadly war. 466 00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:19,920 Speaker 6: I noted that for the hostages who are finally home, 467 00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:22,480 Speaker 6: it'll take a long time for them to recover mentally 468 00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:25,320 Speaker 6: and physically. But I regret also saying that they might 469 00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:29,119 Speaker 6: have been treated better than many Gazans, because Hamas used 470 00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:33,000 Speaker 6: these hostages as pawns and bargaining chips. But that was 471 00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:36,000 Speaker 6: insensitive and it was wrong. From speaking to many former 472 00:25:36,040 --> 00:25:39,719 Speaker 6: hostages and their families, Like everyone, I've been horrified at 473 00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:43,679 Speaker 6: what Hamas has subjected them to over two long years. 474 00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:44,840 Speaker 3: They've told me. 475 00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:47,520 Speaker 6: As You've just heard their stories of barely being able 476 00:25:47,560 --> 00:25:50,240 Speaker 6: to breathe in the tunnels, not being allowed to cry, 477 00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:53,199 Speaker 6: being starved and made to dig their own graves. And 478 00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:55,920 Speaker 6: of course today some of the hostages are coming back 479 00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:57,920 Speaker 6: in body bags, and. 480 00:25:57,920 --> 00:26:02,480 Speaker 4: All of the women Christiahan, this supposed champion of women worldwide, 481 00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:06,639 Speaker 4: You kidding me? These women were brutally raped, tortured, and 482 00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:09,800 Speaker 4: eventually killed. Why so they couldn't live to tell the 483 00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:13,600 Speaker 4: tale of the horrors that they endured. That her mind 484 00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:16,199 Speaker 4: would even go there in the first place. There's a 485 00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:20,320 Speaker 4: process here. You have a thought, and you don't necessarily 486 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:21,440 Speaker 4: give voice to that thought. 487 00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:24,320 Speaker 3: But let's say you have a thought and it's ridiculous. 488 00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:28,320 Speaker 4: It makes its way from your brain to your mouth 489 00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:32,639 Speaker 4: and out onto live television. That's what happened with Christian Amanpur. 490 00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:36,720 Speaker 4: Are you buying the apology. I'm not so sure that 491 00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:40,560 Speaker 4: i am. But this comes from two years of a media, 492 00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:45,520 Speaker 4: including Christian Amanpour, that has been carrying water equivocating on 493 00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:50,280 Speaker 4: behalf of Hamas, trying to draw some kind of counterbalance 494 00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:53,479 Speaker 4: of well, they did do the invasion and killed twelve 495 00:26:53,560 --> 00:26:59,000 Speaker 4: hundred innes in Israelis, but Israel's an oppressive regime. 496 00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:00,000 Speaker 3: And they're killing a bunch of powers. 497 00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:05,320 Speaker 4: Estindian civilians wantonly willie nilly, which is false, which is false, 498 00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:10,560 Speaker 4: And it's that credence that you've given to Hamas at all. 499 00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:12,080 Speaker 3: They're a terrorist organization. 500 00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:16,000 Speaker 4: They must be wiped off the map, they must be eliminated, destroyed, 501 00:27:16,240 --> 00:27:19,440 Speaker 4: they must be removed from power. There are no alternatives 502 00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:22,840 Speaker 4: in which Hamas is left empowering Gaza and we just 503 00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:23,880 Speaker 4: go about our merry way. 504 00:27:24,119 --> 00:27:27,960 Speaker 3: No, but the media hasn't covered it that way. And 505 00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:30,280 Speaker 3: that is the fruit of the poisonous tree right there. 506 00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:33,159 Speaker 4: And it led to that whatever you want to call it, apology, 507 00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:36,960 Speaker 4: a time out back wrapping up our number two. The 508 00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:40,399 Speaker 4: situation with Michael Brown continues without Michael Brown, Ryan Schuling 509 00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:41,240 Speaker 4: filling in after this. 510 00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:44,639 Speaker 9: Stay away from the political aspects and just say bring 511 00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:49,040 Speaker 9: the hostages home. It seems like a very humanistic angle, 512 00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:51,359 Speaker 9: something you can say without getting into the muck. Yeah, 513 00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:53,560 Speaker 9: and Hollywood just won't do it. Why can't they take 514 00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:54,760 Speaker 9: that very basic step. 515 00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:55,320 Speaker 3: I don't know. 516 00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:59,399 Speaker 10: I would accept bring the hostages home and free palisidec 517 00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:01,640 Speaker 10: accept free pile. 518 00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:02,920 Speaker 3: Sign and bring the hostages home. 519 00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:07,399 Speaker 10: You know, We've had two Oscars, two Grammy's, two Emmys 520 00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:11,399 Speaker 10: in the two years, and not one of the not 521 00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:15,800 Speaker 10: one person said it. And I don't understand it. I've 522 00:28:16,119 --> 00:28:18,960 Speaker 10: stopped trying to understand it or figure it out. I 523 00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:24,119 Speaker 10: don't try to debate, articulate, or convince specifically the people 524 00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:26,480 Speaker 10: in the show business community. 525 00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:27,440 Speaker 3: These are my peers. 526 00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:30,720 Speaker 4: Michael Rappaport joining us live in studio last week. That 527 00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:33,680 Speaker 4: was Christian Toto, my good friend. Who you heard Hollywoodantoto 528 00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:37,320 Speaker 4: dot com about why celebrities won't just come out and 529 00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:40,800 Speaker 4: say that the basic decent thing. I mean, obviously bring 530 00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:44,680 Speaker 4: the hostages home. There's a darkness, and it's not just 531 00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:48,280 Speaker 4: Hollywood it's the mainstream media, but it's many that appear 532 00:28:48,360 --> 00:28:51,840 Speaker 4: on television. It's many that appear in movies. The Mark 533 00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:55,280 Speaker 4: Ruffaloes of the world. That guy, I mean, he's among 534 00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:59,680 Speaker 4: the worst. And Rapaport he names names in this conversation 535 00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:03,800 Speaker 4: as well, and he's paid a price professionally. He had 536 00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:07,280 Speaker 4: shows canceled in Royal Oak, Michigan. Of course, most of 537 00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:09,320 Speaker 4: you know about dearborn By now that it has the 538 00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:14,840 Speaker 4: highest population of Muslim individuals in the United States per capita. 539 00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:19,080 Speaker 3: I've been there many times. There's a burger joint called 540 00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:19,840 Speaker 3: Miller's there. 541 00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:22,080 Speaker 4: Any of you that have been to Michigan or are 542 00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:24,880 Speaker 4: from there might know what I'm talking about. It's a 543 00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:29,320 Speaker 4: lovely community. It's where Henry Ford had his original assembly 544 00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:32,160 Speaker 4: line for Ford Motor Company in the early twentieth century. 545 00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:33,440 Speaker 3: There's a lot of history there. 546 00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:37,840 Speaker 4: And Rappaport had a show canceled there, had one canceled 547 00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:41,840 Speaker 4: in Alabama, of all places, and he told me there's 548 00:29:41,920 --> 00:29:44,760 Speaker 4: because there were these kind of you know, the libs 549 00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:47,880 Speaker 4: really love doing this swatting stuff now where they'll call 550 00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:50,560 Speaker 4: the police and say, hey, there's been a domestic dispute 551 00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:53,520 Speaker 4: at such and such address, and he's got a gun, 552 00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:56,200 Speaker 4: he's threatening us. It's fake, totally fake, but they call 553 00:29:56,240 --> 00:29:59,640 Speaker 4: it in and now a swat team storms the house 554 00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:02,800 Speaker 4: on the impression that somebody is there with a gun. 555 00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:06,160 Speaker 4: On a lower level, that was happening, he said at 556 00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:09,720 Speaker 4: the show in Alabama where there were protesters threatening to 557 00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:13,440 Speaker 4: come up and protest outside the comedy club, and the 558 00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:14,920 Speaker 4: owners are like, we just don't want to deal with it. 559 00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:18,320 Speaker 3: And they never showed. It was a bluff. It was 560 00:30:18,360 --> 00:30:18,720 Speaker 3: a bulk. 561 00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:23,040 Speaker 4: But what I'm seeing now of late, people like Michael 562 00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:26,000 Speaker 4: Rappaport and I even saw Cheryl Hines last night on 563 00:30:26,080 --> 00:30:29,760 Speaker 4: with Jesse Waters. You might remember her from Curby Your 564 00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:33,080 Speaker 4: Enthusiasm with Larry David and she is married to RFK Junior. 565 00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:36,280 Speaker 4: And the heat that she has taken for supporting her 566 00:30:36,360 --> 00:30:39,600 Speaker 4: husband and the vitriol that he has taken from members 567 00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:42,160 Speaker 4: of his own family, that is opened her eyes. 568 00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:43,200 Speaker 3: I'm not going to say. 569 00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:46,160 Speaker 4: That Cheryl Hines has been redpilled, but her eyes have 570 00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:48,719 Speaker 4: been open to what the left is capable of, and 571 00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:53,640 Speaker 4: that darkness and that evil, the anger that is rooted 572 00:30:53,840 --> 00:30:57,440 Speaker 4: in the left. Now you are pushing people who once 573 00:30:57,480 --> 00:31:01,880 Speaker 4: agreed with you like Cheryl Hinese appaport. The list is long, 574 00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:05,040 Speaker 4: even Bill Maher of Late You have watched, and it's 575 00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:07,320 Speaker 4: not that Bill Maher is a conservative or ever would be. 576 00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:11,800 Speaker 4: But when we come back, I'll have my conversation with 577 00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:17,080 Speaker 4: President Trump wink, and you'll hear in exchange that Bill 578 00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:18,480 Speaker 4: Maher had with William H. 579 00:31:18,560 --> 00:31:20,360 Speaker 3: Macy. And I don't think Macy's any. 580 00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:24,240 Speaker 4: Conservative, But there is a shift that's happening in Hollywood 581 00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:27,000 Speaker 4: where they're looking at Donald Trump and they're seeing him 582 00:31:27,080 --> 00:31:30,880 Speaker 4: more as the person that he is rather than the caricature. 583 00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:34,000 Speaker 4: The left tried to create more on the situation without 584 00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:34,920 Speaker 4: Michael Brown after this
