1
00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:04,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, this is Mark Simon Show on sevent ten.

2
00:00:05,400 --> 00:00:12,600
Speaker 2: Woo Hey, it's Monday. We got a lot to get

3
00:00:12,600 --> 00:00:15,280
Speaker 2: to the liberation of Iran. We'll go over that. It's

4
00:00:15,360 --> 00:00:17,759
Speaker 2: day three. We'll get to we'll get their old friend

5
00:00:17,760 --> 00:00:21,640
Speaker 2: Neil Sedaka, we'll get to crazy Mom Donnie, and we've

6
00:00:21,680 --> 00:00:25,160
Speaker 2: got Epstein and a whole lot more to talk about. Hey,

7
00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:27,280
Speaker 2: you know, the good news is it's gonna be cold today.

8
00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:30,800
Speaker 2: It's gonna be uh, let's get the highest. It's gonna

9
00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:34,479
Speaker 2: be a cold, cold day. But this is it. This

10
00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:38,199
Speaker 2: is the last cold day until next year. This is

11
00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:42,680
Speaker 2: the very final cold day. Today it's gonna go up

12
00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:45,680
Speaker 2: to thirty two, but then tomorrow it heads into the

13
00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:48,280
Speaker 2: forties and then into the fifties and next week in

14
00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:51,400
Speaker 2: the sixties. One day it'll even hit seventy next week.

15
00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:56,480
Speaker 2: So this is the final cold day. This coming weekend,

16
00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:01,920
Speaker 2: we go on daylight saving time eighteen days until spring.

17
00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:05,320
Speaker 2: Eighteen days until spring. You did it. You got through

18
00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:08,080
Speaker 2: the winter. You don't have much more to go. Just

19
00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:10,720
Speaker 2: get through today, and it's going to be warm for

20
00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:15,199
Speaker 2: the rest of the rest of the whole until the fall,

21
00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:19,360
Speaker 2: until the winter. So we're in day three, of the

22
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:22,360
Speaker 2: action against Iran. Let's call it the liberation of Iran.

23
00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:25,720
Speaker 2: Democrats don't know what the hell to do. They're running

24
00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:30,000
Speaker 2: around like crazy, trying to find the attack Kolmane. Clearly

25
00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:33,479
Speaker 2: the Ia tolda clearly the most evil man on earth,

26
00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:38,040
Speaker 2: the closest thing to Hitler in the world today, a brutal,

27
00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:40,920
Speaker 2: brutal dictator killing his own people at the rate of

28
00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:46,039
Speaker 2: thirty thousand a month, recently savagely killing them, shooting protesters

29
00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:48,800
Speaker 2: in the street, the ones that survived and got into

30
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:51,960
Speaker 2: the hospital. This is absolutely true. In the last few weeks,

31
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:55,880
Speaker 2: the Komeni forces have been going into hospitals and shooting

32
00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:58,720
Speaker 2: them in the head, right in their bed. This is Komene.

33
00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:02,680
Speaker 2: He's the Hitler of today, obviously trying to wipe out

34
00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:08,000
Speaker 2: Israel and all the Jews. It's a horrible, horrible, horrible situation.

35
00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:11,760
Speaker 2: Something had to be done. They tried at the negotiating table.

36
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:15,160
Speaker 2: They gave it a good shot. It was clear, very

37
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:17,880
Speaker 2: clear that he was not going to negotiate, and he

38
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:20,280
Speaker 2: was never going to stop trying to get a nuclear weapon.

39
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:24,160
Speaker 2: So there was no choice. Time to do something. Now

40
00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:27,560
Speaker 2: they had spent weeks and weeks and weeks and months

41
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:31,320
Speaker 2: planning this attack. They also have spent the last couple

42
00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:34,240
Speaker 2: of months watching the Iya had told that every day,

43
00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:37,680
Speaker 2: learning his habits, his patterns, where he went, what he did,

44
00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:40,760
Speaker 2: and they were going to go. The plan was not

45
00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:44,120
Speaker 2: to go now. Originally the plan was a few days earlier,

46
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:46,560
Speaker 2: and then the plan was for a few days later.

47
00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:50,800
Speaker 2: But something happened on Saturday. They saw and we have

48
00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:54,639
Speaker 2: incredible intelligence in Iran, we in Israel, and a lot

49
00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:57,960
Speaker 2: of it is Israel, but we saw on Saturday something developing.

50
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:01,040
Speaker 2: They were going to hold a meeting with the top

51
00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:05,919
Speaker 2: forty leaders and the Iatola himself. These forty one people

52
00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:08,280
Speaker 2: were going to meet in a building. They knew which building.

53
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:11,919
Speaker 2: They were going to do it on Saturday morning, which

54
00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:14,239
Speaker 2: would be the middle of the night our time. But

55
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:17,160
Speaker 2: the reason they felt it was okay to all show

56
00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:21,680
Speaker 2: up for this meeting in broad daylight, Iran miscalculated, well,

57
00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:24,800
Speaker 2: actually I don't know if they miscalculated. They realized a

58
00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:27,720
Speaker 2: few things. The US always attacks in the middle of

59
00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:30,640
Speaker 2: the night, always in total darkness, because we are the

60
00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:33,800
Speaker 2: best in the world with night vision equipment and nobody

61
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:35,960
Speaker 2: else is, so we have an advantage in the dark.

62
00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:38,840
Speaker 2: We always attack in the middle of the night, so

63
00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:41,240
Speaker 2: the Iotola figured it was safe we wouldn't attack in

64
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:46,200
Speaker 2: broad daylight. He also figured we wouldn't attack on Ramadan.

65
00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:49,840
Speaker 2: He also figured we Israel's not going to attack during

66
00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:53,800
Speaker 2: the Shabbat on Saturday, so that's why he felt it

67
00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:55,800
Speaker 2: was safe to have that meeting and for him to

68
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:58,320
Speaker 2: show up at it. So we saw this happening, and

69
00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:01,840
Speaker 2: we'd been ready to go, and when we saw this,

70
00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:04,320
Speaker 2: we decided it was the right time take them out.

71
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:07,400
Speaker 2: And that's when they hit that building, killed the Ayatola

72
00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:11,840
Speaker 2: and forty of the top leaders, just wiped them out.

73
00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:15,280
Speaker 2: So it was a great, great success. The beginning operation,

74
00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:20,480
Speaker 2: the news hit the airwaves that we were then bombing Iran,

75
00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:26,200
Speaker 2: attacking Iran, very tough, tough moment for Democrats. It was

76
00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:29,200
Speaker 2: Saturday morning. They hear the news. They all had to

77
00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:31,839
Speaker 2: run out and buy Iranian flags. They didn't know where

78
00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:35,240
Speaker 2: to get them. They went online trying to order Iranian flags.

79
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:39,919
Speaker 2: It's tough for them. As the bombing continued throughout the

80
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:41,919
Speaker 2: day and night. Then they realized on Sunday, they're probably

81
00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:45,120
Speaker 2: gonna have to tear up those Trump Taco signs, remember those.

82
00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:49,040
Speaker 2: Trump always chickens out. So then the Sunday shows come along,

83
00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:52,240
Speaker 2: and what do you do. They can't praise Donald Trump

84
00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:54,320
Speaker 2: no matter what he does. If he killed Hitler, they'd

85
00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:57,000
Speaker 2: be attacking him. Well, he didn't get congressional approval. He

86
00:04:57,040 --> 00:04:59,760
Speaker 2: didn't follow the War Powers Act. First of all, you

87
00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:03,359
Speaker 2: don't need congressional approval for the first sixty days. And

88
00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:05,200
Speaker 2: it's not likely this thing will even make it to

89
00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:08,680
Speaker 2: sixty days. But you don't need congressional approval for the

90
00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:11,680
Speaker 2: first sixty days. And if you read that War Powers Act,

91
00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:14,520
Speaker 2: if there are no boots on the ground, and there aren't,

92
00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:18,400
Speaker 2: you don't need to worry about congressional approval. President Trump

93
00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:22,520
Speaker 2: made himself available to reporters in in a way that

94
00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:25,320
Speaker 2: they even surprised the reporters. Millions of people have his

95
00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:27,760
Speaker 2: cell number, his private cell number, a lot of reporters.

96
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:30,680
Speaker 2: He gives it to all of them, and some of

97
00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:33,640
Speaker 2: them started calling even Saturday morning, just as the news broke.

98
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:37,000
Speaker 2: John Levine, the great reporter, called Saturday. It was like

99
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:39,920
Speaker 2: eight in the morning. The President answered on one ring.

100
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:43,240
Speaker 2: He usually does, by the way, he'll answer on one ring.

101
00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:47,600
Speaker 2: There are sometimes two rings. If he's really tired about

102
00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:50,000
Speaker 2: not all he does it, but he'll answer on one ring.

103
00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:53,240
Speaker 2: But Levine got him right on the phone, talked him

104
00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:56,400
Speaker 2: for four minutes. There are ten other reporters who got

105
00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:58,520
Speaker 2: the president on the phone. He was happy to talk

106
00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:03,560
Speaker 2: to them. Democrats had to figure out how to criticize this.

107
00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:05,880
Speaker 2: They had to go on these Sunday shows. How do

108
00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:09,000
Speaker 2: you criticize President Trump? And he was on the airwaves.

109
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:10,839
Speaker 2: He was talking, he may address the nation.

110
00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:15,680
Speaker 3: I once again urged the Revolutionary Guards, the Iranian military

111
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:20,000
Speaker 3: police to lay down your arms and receive full immunity

112
00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:21,200
Speaker 3: or face certain death.

113
00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:25,320
Speaker 1: It will be certain death won't be pretty.

114
00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:29,960
Speaker 3: The entire military command is gone as well, and many

115
00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:34,440
Speaker 3: of them want to surrender into saving their lives. They

116
00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:35,200
Speaker 3: want immunity.

117
00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:38,000
Speaker 1: They're calling by the thousands.

118
00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:38,800
Speaker 4: Yeah.

119
00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:42,520
Speaker 2: So first attack from the Democrats was he hasn't exclaimed

120
00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:45,000
Speaker 2: that to the nation. Why isn't he holding a press conference?

121
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:47,640
Speaker 2: Why isn't he Well, he did address the nation at

122
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:49,800
Speaker 2: great length. Those are just a couple of clips I

123
00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:51,400
Speaker 2: got play the whole thing that goes on for a

124
00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:53,919
Speaker 2: long time. He did address the nation. He talked to

125
00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:58,640
Speaker 2: eleven reporters, answered all their questions, including a Kristen Welker

126
00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:03,760
Speaker 2: of meet. The even talked to her Hexath and General

127
00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:07,160
Speaker 2: kin Raising Cain did a briefing this morning, went on

128
00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:09,600
Speaker 2: at great length. They took questions for a long time,

129
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:14,240
Speaker 2: so that attack doesn't work. The next attack they tried

130
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:16,840
Speaker 2: was by the way he was at mar A Lago.

131
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:19,920
Speaker 2: There was a fundraiser scheduled for Saturday night and he

132
00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:22,240
Speaker 2: had planned to go to mar A Lago, and they

133
00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:24,320
Speaker 2: decided he should go to mar A Lago because if

134
00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:28,040
Speaker 2: he didn't or if they canceled the fundraiser, it might

135
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:31,920
Speaker 2: raise suspicion in Iran. They might think there's an attack coming.

136
00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:34,640
Speaker 2: So to keep the illusion up, the fundraiser was on.

137
00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:37,880
Speaker 2: He went to Florida, which made the Iya Tola even

138
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:40,760
Speaker 2: more confident in going to that meeting in broad daylight.

139
00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:44,680
Speaker 2: So they did all of this Saturday morning. The bombing

140
00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:48,520
Speaker 2: continued throughout Saturday and Saturday night. The president in a tuxedo,

141
00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:51,680
Speaker 2: went to the fundraiser and then had dinner at mar

142
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:53,760
Speaker 2: A Lago. So this was the other democratic attack. Look

143
00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:56,280
Speaker 2: at that in the middle of this bombing, he's having

144
00:07:56,320 --> 00:08:00,240
Speaker 2: dinner with millionaires at mar A Lago. How dare he? Well,

145
00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:04,000
Speaker 2: if you check their record, that's usually what happens. In fact,

146
00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:10,040
Speaker 2: the biggest military operation of Obama's presidency was killing Bin Laden.

147
00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:14,480
Speaker 2: That was a very, very, very dangerous operation. And while

148
00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:17,000
Speaker 2: that was going on, Obama was laughing and joking at

149
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:20,040
Speaker 2: the White House correspondence dinner, which you're supposed to do.

150
00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:24,000
Speaker 2: Go to the dinner. That makes the enemy think you're

151
00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:27,200
Speaker 2: not up to anything, the business as usual. So that

152
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:31,240
Speaker 2: attack fizzled out. What was the other attack? Well, hey,

153
00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:33,040
Speaker 2: the other thing is you know they've been attacking Pete

154
00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:36,760
Speaker 2: Hexath ever since he got in there as totally incompetent,

155
00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:41,240
Speaker 2: not qualified. Even Mark Kelly, that awful senator over the weekend,

156
00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:45,160
Speaker 2: still saying Hexath is the most unqualified Secretary of Defense,

157
00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:49,360
Speaker 2: least qualified secretary Defense. Well, first, that's not true. Hexath

158
00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:52,319
Speaker 2: has a lot of military experience. And half the people

159
00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:56,440
Speaker 2: we made secretary Defense had zero military expense. There were

160
00:08:56,480 --> 00:09:01,880
Speaker 2: a congressman, one was an academic. So he's got more

161
00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:04,520
Speaker 2: military experience than half of the secretaries of Defense. And

162
00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:07,920
Speaker 2: as much as you've attacked him, you got to admit

163
00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:11,679
Speaker 2: he's now run about six of the most complex, sophisticated

164
00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:17,760
Speaker 2: military operations flawlessly taken out the nuclear reactors, capturing Maduro,

165
00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:21,720
Speaker 2: killing the Ayatola. Now we did lose some soldiers. We

166
00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:26,880
Speaker 2: lost three. As we started bombing Iran, they started firing

167
00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:30,200
Speaker 2: on neighboring countries. One bomb hit Kuwait, hit one of

168
00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:34,720
Speaker 2: our military bases, and three US soldiers died there. Also,

169
00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:40,400
Speaker 2: we just found out yesterday Kuwait accidentally shot down three

170
00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:43,640
Speaker 2: of our planes. They thought they were Iranian, so it

171
00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:46,240
Speaker 2: was friendly fire. Kuwait shot down three of our planes.

172
00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:50,560
Speaker 2: But the good news, all six pilots ejected safely. So

173
00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:54,280
Speaker 2: now I'm trying to think of the other attacks. They

174
00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:56,760
Speaker 2: just couldn't find the attacks, and then they went back

175
00:09:56,800 --> 00:10:00,400
Speaker 2: to he didn't get congressional approval. You don't need congressional approval,

176
00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:05,320
Speaker 2: and the last eighteen wars and nobody's gotten any congressional approval.

177
00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:08,600
Speaker 2: Then the other attack. I was watching this all day Sunday,

178
00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:11,560
Speaker 2: especially the Sunday Shoes. They tried this new attack. He

179
00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:16,160
Speaker 2: ran on the promise of no regime change. The central

180
00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:21,640
Speaker 2: theme of his campaign was no regime change. We all

181
00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:23,800
Speaker 2: watched that campaign. I don't remember that ever coming up.

182
00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:26,640
Speaker 2: Do you remember that as even being mentioned. I don't

183
00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:29,480
Speaker 2: the central theme. I think the central theme was the border,

184
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:33,880
Speaker 2: illegal immigration. I think the central theme was taxes, the economy.

185
00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:37,280
Speaker 2: May have mentioned regime change somewhere in the campaign, but

186
00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:41,360
Speaker 2: it was not a theme of the campaign. He did

187
00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:43,760
Speaker 2: say in the campaign company He did promise a few times,

188
00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:46,280
Speaker 2: no more endless wars. And that's what this is. No

189
00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:49,760
Speaker 2: more endless wars, no boots on the ground. There's not

190
00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:55,199
Speaker 2: going to be any endless tried you know, nation building,

191
00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:58,280
Speaker 2: trying to occupy the nation. There'll be none of that here.

192
00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:02,040
Speaker 2: So it was a tough tough time for Democrats. They

193
00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:05,040
Speaker 2: didn't know what to do. They got to attack him

194
00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:08,680
Speaker 2: left and right, no matter what he does, no matter what. Now, Mom,

195
00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:12,480
Speaker 2: Donnie is the mayor of New York. His job is

196
00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:16,319
Speaker 2: to pick up the snow, run the police department. But

197
00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:19,520
Speaker 2: being a crazy left winger, he's got to shoot his

198
00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:20,000
Speaker 2: mouth off.

199
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:24,440
Speaker 4: Today's military strikes by the United States and Israel mark

200
00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:29,720
Speaker 4: a catastrophic escalation in an illegal, active war of aggression,

201
00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:34,800
Speaker 4: bombing cities, killing civilians, opening up a new theater of war.

202
00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:36,400
Speaker 4: Americans do not want this.

203
00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:41,760
Speaker 2: First of all, he has no qualifications to speak about this,

204
00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:45,760
Speaker 2: has absolutely no knowledge of what he's talking about is

205
00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:49,520
Speaker 2: not in the illegal war, and Americans are all upset. Well,

206
00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:51,960
Speaker 2: I hate to break it to you, they're all in

207
00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:55,200
Speaker 2: the streets celebrating. That was the problem with CNN. Every

208
00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:57,880
Speaker 2: time they went out to see some Iranian protesters or

209
00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:01,839
Speaker 2: what they thought were protesters, turned out it was people celebrating.

210
00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:06,480
Speaker 2: Iranians all over the world are celebrating. They're so grateful

211
00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:09,800
Speaker 2: to the President for getting rid of the evil, evil

212
00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:13,199
Speaker 2: barbarian liberating Iran. So CNN goes out and there's a

213
00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:15,480
Speaker 2: bunch of Iranians gather, and they thought they would get

214
00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:17,640
Speaker 2: them to attack the president, but no, they were celebrating.

215
00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:22,720
Speaker 5: The celebration is striking. We got here just moments after

216
00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:26,600
Speaker 5: initial reports, initial rumors of the death of Iola kmm

217
00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:30,040
Speaker 5: and A had just started to trickle from Iran to

218
00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:35,480
Speaker 5: this diaspora community, and people were jumping in excitement, hugging

219
00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:39,160
Speaker 5: each other, crying, saying that basically they've been waiting forty

220
00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:41,679
Speaker 5: seven years for this very.

221
00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:45,640
Speaker 2: Day, their country has been limited liberated. They're thrilled.

222
00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:47,040
Speaker 6: Thank you, Donald Trump.

223
00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:49,680
Speaker 2: Now this is a CBS. They've got somebody on hoping

224
00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:51,000
Speaker 2: they'll bad mouth Trump, but no.

225
00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:54,760
Speaker 6: Thank you, Donald Trump, Thank you Benjamin Netya who, thank

226
00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:57,520
Speaker 6: you America. It's not death to America after they killed

227
00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:00,560
Speaker 6: the leader the Americans in the Israelis did it. It's

228
00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:03,440
Speaker 6: not death to Israel and death to America. It's thank you.

229
00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:08,000
Speaker 6: It's a new day dawning, but very early days, very

230
00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:10,520
Speaker 6: very early days. So we'll have to see what comes.

231
00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:13,160
Speaker 6: But it's the Iranian people that have been telling me

232
00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:16,160
Speaker 6: over and over and over again, we want this.

233
00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:22,280
Speaker 2: Yeah. So it is one sane democrat out there. John Fetterman.

234
00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:24,200
Speaker 2: I never thought i'd say this. Remember when he was running,

235
00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:27,120
Speaker 2: he was a crazy lunatic in the shorts and the hoodie.

236
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:29,360
Speaker 2: But boy, he's changed.

237
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:29,480
Speaker 3: You know.

238
00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:32,080
Speaker 2: Remember the State of the Union speech. As the President

239
00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:34,679
Speaker 2: comes down the aisle and sees everybody, all of the

240
00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:37,160
Speaker 2: Democrats refuse to look at him, touch him, shake hands.

241
00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:40,400
Speaker 2: They the only one, the only Democrat that shook hands

242
00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:43,640
Speaker 2: with him was Fetterman, and he got nothing but flack

243
00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:44,000
Speaker 2: for it.

244
00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:47,120
Speaker 7: And if someone's angry that I shook the President's hand

245
00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:51,680
Speaker 7: as he walked in, that's I think that's on them.

246
00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:55,160
Speaker 7: And I think some of the people that were angry

247
00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:57,880
Speaker 7: that I did that, they didn't really have a problem

248
00:13:57,920 --> 00:14:01,480
Speaker 7: when Mandamn he visited with the White House too, So

249
00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:04,560
Speaker 7: like if we refuse to talk to the other side,

250
00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:07,720
Speaker 7: I mean, that's the only one that really loses, that's America.

251
00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:11,360
Speaker 2: Yeah. Now, he might be following the Bill Clinton model.

252
00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:19,040
Speaker 2: You know, back ninety nine Bill, No, No, No, ninety two one.

253
00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:23,280
Speaker 2: Bill Clinton saw that the party, after all these defeats

254
00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:25,600
Speaker 2: from you know, they lost, losing a Rag and a Bush,

255
00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:28,360
Speaker 2: Democrats were really on the outs, so they went far

256
00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:32,080
Speaker 2: to the left. They were left wing wacko kooks. Bill

257
00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:35,960
Speaker 2: Clinton decided to be the common sense moderate and lead

258
00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:37,680
Speaker 2: the party back to the middle, and that's how he

259
00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:41,000
Speaker 2: got the nomination. Fetterman might be thinking that right now,

260
00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:44,960
Speaker 2: with all the left wing crazies in the Democratic Party,

261
00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:48,200
Speaker 2: he'll be the moderate. He'll be the common sense Democrat

262
00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:52,080
Speaker 2: and lead them back to the center and back to victory.

263
00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:55,520
Speaker 2: So Fetterman was the only Democrat not going after the

264
00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:56,440
Speaker 2: president for Iran.

265
00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:58,320
Speaker 1: That's bizarre.

266
00:14:58,760 --> 00:14:58,960
Speaker 4: You know.

267
00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:01,560
Speaker 7: I'd like to remind my i colleague over in the

268
00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:04,680
Speaker 7: House that I ran massacre at thirty thousand of their

269
00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:07,640
Speaker 7: own people. Right now, this war is not about the

270
00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:11,560
Speaker 7: Iranian people. It's about this poisonous regime. And that's why

271
00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:14,000
Speaker 7: I'm proud to stand with our military. I'm proud to

272
00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:17,600
Speaker 7: stand with Israel too. I might be a democrat, but

273
00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:21,080
Speaker 7: in this specific case, the President is absolutely correct.

274
00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:24,600
Speaker 2: It's a courageous thing to say if you're a democrat.

275
00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:27,160
Speaker 2: So anyway, we'll get back to this. We'll take some calls.

276

00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:18,440
Speaker 2: two one zero seven ten. Let's go to Bill in Hamburg,

310
00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:19,960
Speaker 2: New Jersey. Bill, how you doing.

311
00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:23,439
Speaker 8: Good? Thank you? Mark? You know you mentioned you're going

312
00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:26,280
Speaker 8: to have a Neil Sedaka on later He is a

313
00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:30,480
Speaker 8: great talent. You know, I guess sixty sixty two him,

314
00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:35,879
Speaker 8: Frankie Avalon Paul Anka. What great music. Now there was talent.

315
00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:40,439
Speaker 8: And I just want mentioned real quick. My sister was

316
00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:44,280
Speaker 8: on American Bandstand with Dick Clark and she met Neil

317
00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:48,360
Speaker 8: Sedaka and he actually asked her out, and my stupid

318
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:52,080
Speaker 8: sister said no, Yeah, so there was my per What

319
00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:52,680
Speaker 8: a dope.

320
00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:54,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, so there was my inn.

321
00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:56,480
Speaker 8: You know, I could have been you know, I have

322
00:17:56,560 --> 00:17:57,960
Speaker 8: a decent voice, I can say.

323
00:17:58,000 --> 00:17:59,560
Speaker 2: I don't think so that was my inn.

324
00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:03,240
Speaker 8: I could have been somebody. But now just another bum

325
00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:04,720
Speaker 8: walking around of Polucaville.

326
00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:10,080
Speaker 2: He's quoting from on the waterfront. But yeah, I mean

327
00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:12,560
Speaker 2: I hate well, actually, let me think now. Neil Sidaka,

328
00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:16,080
Speaker 2: the love of his life was his wife, Liba Liba Sidaka,

329
00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:19,400
Speaker 2: whose family owned the Big hotel in the Catskills where

330
00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:23,680
Speaker 2: a very young Neil Sidaka worked and met her there.

331
00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:25,840
Speaker 2: So I think he might have wanted to go out

332
00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:28,480
Speaker 2: with your sister, but I think he was already on

333
00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:32,520
Speaker 2: the way to marrying Liba Sidaca even back then. Let's

334
00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:36,639
Speaker 2: go to Mike in Florida. Mike, how you doing. Good morning,

335
00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:37,520
Speaker 2: Mark that's Mike.

336
00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:40,920
Speaker 9: I wanted to mention Neil Sidaka, but just one thing

337
00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:44,400
Speaker 9: before that, one way to demo the Republicans can modify

338
00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:47,159
Speaker 9: the Democrats to just say that Komane was in the

339
00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:48,120
Speaker 9: Epstein files.

340
00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:50,199
Speaker 10: He could have been.

341
00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:55,080
Speaker 9: But yeah, you know the other thing about Sadaka other

342
00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:58,320
Speaker 9: than is obviously I'm not telling how far bia for

343
00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:01,280
Speaker 9: me to tell you, but well associate for others, you know,

344
00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:03,960
Speaker 9: I mean being a member of the brill building and

345
00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:06,840
Speaker 9: that that whole crowd over there is quite remarkable.

346
00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:11,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, he wrote, he wrote the Love Will Keep Us Together,

347
00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:13,840
Speaker 2: a huge hit for the Captain and to Neo. What

348
00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:15,840
Speaker 2: else I'm trying? What else did he write?

349
00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:17,040
Speaker 9: He wrote for Connie Francis.

350
00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:19,679
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, of course, I'm sorry. Now do you know

351
00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:23,280
Speaker 2: that the biggest song one of his songs, Well, that's

352
00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:26,560
Speaker 2: a long story. Sinatra started to sing The Hungry Years

353
00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:30,760
Speaker 2: in concert and it was a it was a very touching,

354
00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:34,639
Speaker 2: very serious ballad from Neil Sidaka about he and his

355
00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:37,120
Speaker 2: wife when they struggled when they were poor, the Hungry Years,

356
00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:39,159
Speaker 2: and it was all about how he misses the Hungry Years.

357
00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:42,359
Speaker 2: And Sinatra started to sing it in concert and then

358
00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:46,000
Speaker 2: dropped it after a few weeks and Neil Sidaka asked

359
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:48,239
Speaker 2: me once, could you ask Sinatra why he dropped us?

360
00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:54,400
Speaker 2: And I asked him, and that's a beautiful song. It's

361
00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:58,080
Speaker 2: beautifully written. He said, I didn't understand the song. I

362
00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:01,160
Speaker 2: didn't get it. He said, you missed the hungry Yers.

363
00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:03,159
Speaker 2: I miss when we were poor, he missed when we

364
00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:05,320
Speaker 2: lived in this little apartment. Moved back there.

365
00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:07,000
Speaker 7: You just go back.

366
00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:10,240
Speaker 9: It's so Sinatra, it's funny.

367
00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:13,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, thanks for calling. There was another song.

368
00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:17,960
Speaker 2: It was a huge hit Barbara streisand People nineteen sixty four.

369
00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:19,760
Speaker 2: It was the biggest hit in the world, People who

370
00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:23,600
Speaker 2: Need People are the luckiest people in the world. And

371
00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:25,679
Speaker 2: Sinatra had always sing the current and we would never

372
00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:27,240
Speaker 2: sing it, and they asked him why. He said, I

373
00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:30,840
Speaker 2: don't understand the song. People who need people are the

374
00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:33,840
Speaker 2: luckiest people. What the hell does it mean? And he

375
00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:36,720
Speaker 2: was right, Let's go to Rich and Myrtle Beach.

376
00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:36,960
Speaker 9: Rich.

377
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:37,520
Speaker 2: How you doing?

378
00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:38,680
Speaker 10: Hey?

379
00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:41,320
Speaker 8: Thanks Mark, you know, Neil Saidakh was also good friends

380
00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:45,240
Speaker 8: with Arthur Spooner on The King of Queens towards the Yeah, Jerry,

381
00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:46,840
Speaker 8: that's series one, Jerry.

382
00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:49,000
Speaker 2: Still, Yeah, we'll talk about Neil saidak, and the next

383
00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:50,640
Speaker 2: hour we'll get him. He was a real New York guy.

384
00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:53,600
Speaker 2: He lived right over there, fifty eighth in Park. Let's

385
00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:56,520
Speaker 2: go to Vincent in Brooklyn. Vincent, how you doing.

386
00:20:56,680 --> 00:21:00,880
Speaker 10: Good morning, Mark, I'm okay, Mark. Thanks for talking about

387
00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:05,119
Speaker 10: all the people in the United States who were celebrating

388
00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:12,119
Speaker 10: the offering of the Komany, Marked, that's nothing compared to

389
00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:16,280
Speaker 10: what they were doing in Europe. In Europe they were

390
00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:23,600
Speaker 10: processions celebrating Commaney getting whack. That in Paris looked like

391
00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:27,080
Speaker 10: they were blocks and blocks and blocks long, carrying the

392
00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:33,280
Speaker 10: old Iranian flag, not the new Iranian flag, the murderer's flag.

393
00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:37,960
Speaker 10: Also in Italy, in London and in Greece. And these

394
00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:41,520
Speaker 10: people were speaking. None of them had towels on their head,

395
00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:45,600
Speaker 10: like the whack jobs, the green haired monsters with the

396
00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:50,200
Speaker 10: nose rigs who were protesting in Times Square and Mark,

397
00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:55,560
Speaker 10: these people they copied George Sorows. They immediately had these

398
00:21:55,800 --> 00:22:00,640
Speaker 10: massive placards made up with the picture of Donald Trump

399
00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:04,480
Speaker 10: and pe Levy's son that they want to go start

400
00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:08,280
Speaker 10: the interim government. And their new slogan is right from

401
00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:13,920
Speaker 10: Donald Trump, make Iran great again, Mega and It shows

402
00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:17,359
Speaker 10: a profile of Donald Trump looking forward and at his

403
00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:20,920
Speaker 10: side pe Levy's son and on the need it says,

404
00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:26,320
Speaker 10: Mega and I'm telling you marked the celebrations in Italy

405
00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:29,640
Speaker 10: and Greece and Paris were massive.

406
00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:32,520
Speaker 2: All right, well, Vincent, that's great to know. Excellent call,

407
00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:35,880
Speaker 2: Thanks for calling. Yeah, we'll get to a Pavlovi. It's

408
00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:39,439
Speaker 2: the son of the Javaran who's been leading, you know,

409
00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:41,320
Speaker 2: the way. He wants to go back and run the country.

410
00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:43,520
Speaker 2: From what I hear, they don't want him to. They

411
00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:45,480
Speaker 2: love him, but he hasn't been in the country in

412
00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:48,120
Speaker 2: forty seven years. You need somebody who knows what's going

413
00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:49,879
Speaker 2: on over there. Hey, when we come back to the

414
00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:54,080
Speaker 2: brilliant columnist Liz Peak, we'll be with us next and

415
00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:55,760
Speaker 2: we'll talk to her about all of this coming up.

416
00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:58,159
Speaker 2: But first on seven to ten w R.

417
00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:03,200
Speaker 1: Now mark someone on seven ten R.

418
00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:07,440
Speaker 2: Well, we're looking for Liz Peak. Hey. By the way,

419
00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:10,000
Speaker 2: a lot of people have asked about Michael Goodwin. You know,

420
00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:11,560
Speaker 2: he's been under the weather for a while, but I

421
00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:15,159
Speaker 2: spoke to him late last week. He's feeling much better

422
00:23:15,280 --> 00:23:17,399
Speaker 2: and should be back with us on the show probably

423
00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:19,960
Speaker 2: next week. Well, we'll hope next week he'll let us

424
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:21,399
Speaker 2: know when he's ready to come back. He's taking some

425
00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:24,679
Speaker 2: time off to but we'll have Michael Goodwin back on

426
00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:29,919
Speaker 2: the show soon. So that's been tough on Democrats. You know,

427
00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:33,800
Speaker 2: first they Maduro, they all had to go out and

428
00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:38,960
Speaker 2: buy Venezuela flags. They already had their Ukrainian flags. This

429
00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:41,240
Speaker 2: is it's just tough on them. Now they got to

430
00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:45,800
Speaker 2: all run around buying Iranian flags, and it's not easy

431
00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:48,760
Speaker 2: on them. And everybody is stunned at some of the

432
00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:52,600
Speaker 2: Democrats in their reaction. Adam Schiff on the Sunday Shows,

433
00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:57,000
Speaker 2: when asked should we have taken out Kolmani said, no,

434
00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:02,879
Speaker 2: very harsh reaction. But anyway, we'll get back to that. Well,

435
00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:06,840
Speaker 2: we got Liz Peak, oh right, the brilliant columnst lis Peak.

436
00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:08,920
Speaker 2: Of course, you see her all over television and you

437
00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:12,680
Speaker 2: should check out her site, your website lizpeak dot com

438
00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:16,040
Speaker 2: if you want great news and analysis and sign up

439
00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:18,879
Speaker 2: there because you'll get the daily briefing. It's really good stuff.

440
00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:23,639
Speaker 2: Go to lizpeak dot com, lizpeak dot com, Lizpeak. How

441
00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:24,120
Speaker 2: you doing.

442
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:26,960
Speaker 1: I'm terrific. Thanks for having me on.

443
00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:29,560
Speaker 2: Hey, great to have you. You know, if you watch all

444
00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:34,080
Speaker 2: the foreign television Europe everywhere, there just celebrating the liberation

445
00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:37,600
Speaker 2: of Iran, the death of Colmany. But if you put

446
00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:40,760
Speaker 2: on American television, you get the opposite of what is

447
00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:41,720
Speaker 2: going on here.

448
00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:45,399
Speaker 11: You know, I've been thinking about this, Mark, and I

449
00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:50,320
Speaker 11: think party partly, the wing of the Democratic Party that

450
00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:55,199
Speaker 11: has exposed exposed itself as being somewhat anti Semitic, is

451
00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:57,800
Speaker 11: sort of taking it one step further. The fact that

452
00:24:58,200 --> 00:25:02,680
Speaker 11: the United States partnered with Israel is viewed as an

453
00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:05,399
Speaker 11: offensive thing that we've done, and the fact that we

454
00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:09,360
Speaker 11: attacked a Muslim nation, you know, just sort of doubles

455
00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:13,320
Speaker 11: down on that. I guess it's hard to figure. I mean,

456
00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:19,159
Speaker 11: I think, look, Trump's arrangement syndrome is alive and well

457
00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:22,679
Speaker 11: and it isn't going anywhere. And the fact that this

458
00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:26,480
Speaker 11: president did this, of course makes it almost immediately a

459
00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:31,080
Speaker 11: knee jerk negative reaction from Democrats. But you also see

460
00:25:31,119 --> 00:25:34,760
Speaker 11: that to some degree on the far right as well,

461
00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:38,919
Speaker 11: with Candice Owens and Tucker Carlson and these people condemning

462
00:25:38,960 --> 00:25:43,080
Speaker 11: this action in part because again of our ties to Israel.

463
00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:45,800
Speaker 1: I mean, it's really it's pretty horrifying.

464
00:25:46,840 --> 00:25:49,320
Speaker 11: And I love these Democrats who are saying it's an

465
00:25:49,359 --> 00:25:50,080
Speaker 11: I llegal war.

466
00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:51,119
Speaker 1: They have no plan.

467
00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:54,240
Speaker 11: Do you think that the Trump administration gave a lot

468
00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:57,359
Speaker 11: of thought to sharing their plans with the likes of

469
00:25:57,440 --> 00:26:01,399
Speaker 11: Chris Murphy or Elon Ohms. No, I don't think so.

470
00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:03,840
Speaker 11: I mean so, I think there's a lot to be

471
00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:05,399
Speaker 11: said here. I must say, I don't know if you

472
00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:10,080
Speaker 11: saw Pete Hegseat this morning at his breast conference and

473
00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:14,360
Speaker 11: then also the general in charge of I think Sentcom.

474
00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:17,320
Speaker 11: I thought they just did a fabulous job of laying

475
00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:19,520
Speaker 11: out not just the rationale, but kind of what was

476
00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:20,040
Speaker 11: going on.

477
00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:23,240
Speaker 1: I was on Maria Barbarromo's show this morning.

478
00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:26,879
Speaker 11: We had Jack Keenan who said, look, you know, in

479
00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:30,200
Speaker 11: forty eight hours, the missiles coming out of Iran have

480
00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:33,399
Speaker 11: been knocked down to fifty percent of the volume that

481
00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:38,320
Speaker 11: they were. The navy has been crushed, not eliminated, but

482
00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:40,840
Speaker 11: certainly very badly hurt.

483
00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:42,800
Speaker 1: There has just been.

484
00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:47,359
Speaker 11: An enormous amount going on, and the Iranians amazingly.

485
00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:49,720
Speaker 1: Thought that they could attack the Gulf.

486
00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:53,439
Speaker 11: Arab nations with impunity, and what they've done is now

487
00:26:53,560 --> 00:26:58,160
Speaker 11: solidify the entire region in opposition to them.

488
00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:00,800
Speaker 1: So it's a pretty fascinating thing to do.

489
00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:04,720
Speaker 11: I think it's unbelievably gutsy of this president, because guess what,

490
00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:08,520
Speaker 11: Politically this is really dicey. When oil prices are up

491
00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:11,479
Speaker 11: almost thirty percent from the beginning of the year, that

492
00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:14,560
Speaker 11: is a high cost to Americans, and it's going to

493
00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:18,400
Speaker 11: be a high political cost to Republicans and to this president.

494
00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:22,520
Speaker 11: But you just have to say, I give them enormous

495
00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:27,639
Speaker 11: credit for taking the war to where it should be

496
00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:30,680
Speaker 11: in the Middle East, which is Iran. And we've been

497
00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:36,640
Speaker 11: dancing around this for decades, allowing these truly truly evil

498
00:27:36,680 --> 00:27:41,520
Speaker 11: people who not just slaughter their own citizens happily, but

499
00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:46,399
Speaker 11: also obviously have attacked Americans repeatedly over the years. We

500
00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:48,920
Speaker 11: have finally taken it to them, and I think that's great.

501
00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:52,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I guess you could you could fairly

502
00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:55,280
Speaker 2: say that the Ayatola was the closest thing to Hitler

503
00:27:55,320 --> 00:28:00,960
Speaker 2: on Earth today, killing thirty thousand Zone people month recently,

504
00:28:01,560 --> 00:28:04,920
Speaker 2: wanting to wipe out Israel and the Jews, just horrible, horrible,

505
00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:08,840
Speaker 2: the main sponsor of terrorism in the world. And then

506
00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:11,800
Speaker 2: explain to us the obituaries that we're you're right about

507
00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:14,239
Speaker 2: this at lispeak dot com. The obituaries in the New

508
00:28:14,320 --> 00:28:16,160
Speaker 2: York Times, in Washington Post.

509
00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:21,040
Speaker 11: It's staggering, you know, how Kamanie really had poetry in

510
00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:25,679
Speaker 11: his heart. And you know, I mean, the concept that

511
00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:30,640
Speaker 11: this fellow was anything but an evil tyrant is so offensive. Mark,

512
00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:34,000
Speaker 11: I don't know, you know, every now and then you

513
00:28:34,160 --> 00:28:36,440
Speaker 11: just kind of think, well, these people have just lost

514
00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:39,200
Speaker 11: their minds. And I think a little bit that's the case.

515
00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:43,160
Speaker 11: I just cannot imagine a reporter sitting down to write

516
00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:45,880
Speaker 11: an oh bit about one of the most hated people

517
00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:48,920
Speaker 11: on the face of the earth. I mean, it really

518
00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:52,440
Speaker 11: would be writing an obituary about Hitler and saying, well, gosh,

519
00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:54,680
Speaker 11: he had a lovely place in the mountains, you know.

520
00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:55,160
Speaker 2: Yeah.

521
00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:57,160
Speaker 1: It would be like saying stupidity.

522
00:28:57,320 --> 00:29:06,240
Speaker 2: It would be like saying a best selling author, yeah, yeah.

523
00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:06,400
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, yeah exactly.

524
00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:09,400
Speaker 11: He penned mind comp and oh my goodness, wasn't that

525
00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:10,320
Speaker 11: a work of genius?

526
00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:11,520
Speaker 1: Yes.

527
00:29:12,880 --> 00:29:15,640
Speaker 11: I don't know what's wrong with these people, I really don't.

528
00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:19,400
Speaker 11: It seems to me this is a moment truly of

529
00:29:19,480 --> 00:29:26,800
Speaker 11: moral clarity. Iran was a great nation, educated people, freedom

530
00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:29,280
Speaker 11: for women, all the rest of these things, and it

531
00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:34,200
Speaker 11: became a murderous theocracy that constantly funded and.

532
00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:37,600
Speaker 1: Supported terrorism in the Middle East.

533
00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:42,080
Speaker 11: And that's why, by the way, Saudi Arabia and the

534
00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:46,960
Speaker 11: UAE and elsewhere have joined pretty happily. I would say,

535
00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:49,440
Speaker 11: the United States in fighting Iran.

536
00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:51,880
Speaker 1: I mean, this is not an easy thing for them.

537
00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:54,160
Speaker 1: They have undoubtedly.

538
00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:59,000
Speaker 11: Residents in their own countries who were in league with

539
00:29:59,400 --> 00:30:02,480
Speaker 11: the Shia Muslim world there. It's going to be a

540
00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:06,720
Speaker 11: very divisive thing in some of these Arab countries. But

541
00:30:06,920 --> 00:30:10,880
Speaker 11: the answer is, you know, enough's enough, and they know

542
00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:14,160
Speaker 11: perfectly well that these are these are bad guys. So,

543
00:30:14,760 --> 00:30:18,800
Speaker 11: I mean, it's hard to imagine with Israel the United States,

544
00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:22,440
Speaker 11: the combined military and intelligence capabilities of those two countries

545
00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:26,720
Speaker 11: and now Jordan, Saudi Arabia, et cetera. Some of those

546
00:30:26,760 --> 00:30:30,680
Speaker 11: countries are pretty sizable militaries. I cannot imagine this goes

547
00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:32,080
Speaker 11: on terribly long.

548
00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:35,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, so as soon as they started, Iran started bombing

549
00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:39,560
Speaker 2: Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, they hit all the neighboring countries. It

550
00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:42,200
Speaker 2: wasn't that a big miscalculation. It brought all those countries

551
00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:45,000
Speaker 2: on board with US immediately. What were they do. So

552
00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:45,600
Speaker 2: what were they think?

553
00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:50,920
Speaker 11: I think they must have been thinking. You know, actually

554
00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:53,240
Speaker 11: you probably saw they came out with the thing thing. Well,

555
00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:58,040
Speaker 11: that was not intentional. It was a rogue military operation. Yeah.

556
00:30:58,040 --> 00:31:00,280
Speaker 11: I don't think there's a lot of rogue military cherry

557
00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:04,239
Speaker 11: groups with their hands on missiles in Iran. But you know,

558
00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:08,880
Speaker 11: I could be wrong, But yes, I think they were

559
00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:12,720
Speaker 11: assuming that the Arab countries, which have, let's face it,

560
00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:18,040
Speaker 11: enabled and turned their attentions away from Iran for a

561
00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:21,960
Speaker 11: very long time, and let this go on, Let Hesbela

562
00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:26,880
Speaker 11: carry out terrorist attack from Lebanon. Let you know, Saudis

563
00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:29,280
Speaker 11: aren't exactly keen on the hooties, but let's face this

564
00:31:29,320 --> 00:31:32,440
Speaker 11: little dingback group, the hoodies had been allowed to run

565
00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:39,600
Speaker 11: riot around Saudi Arabia in the Gulf, et cetera. And

566
00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:43,400
Speaker 11: you know, I think the Iranians just miscalculated.

567
00:31:43,440 --> 00:31:46,760
Speaker 1: They've just didn't see that they were just ready to

568
00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:47,640
Speaker 1: say enough.

569
00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:50,880
Speaker 11: And by the way, they may not have understood that

570
00:31:51,240 --> 00:31:55,000
Speaker 11: President Trump and Muhammed Bin Salomon, that the facto head

571
00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:59,600
Speaker 11: of Saudi Arabia have been partners, have been working on

572
00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:03,280
Speaker 11: a world partnership for a long time since his first

573
00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:06,040
Speaker 11: term and that's one of the reasons. I mean, that's

574
00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:08,840
Speaker 11: one of the reasons that Joe Biden went after MBS

575
00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:12,760
Speaker 11: so aggressively and was insulting to him. He couldn't stand

576
00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:15,360
Speaker 11: the fact that Trump had actually worked with the guy. Well,

577
00:32:15,400 --> 00:32:18,120
Speaker 11: that didn't turn out too well because when Biden wanted

578
00:32:18,160 --> 00:32:21,480
Speaker 11: more oil out of Saudi Arabia, NBS said, no, thanks,

579
00:32:21,680 --> 00:32:23,560
Speaker 11: we don't think we're going to help you out. So,

580
00:32:24,120 --> 00:32:29,560
Speaker 11: I mean, I think the Biden and Obama whitehouses were

581
00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:34,120
Speaker 11: so incredibly instinctively wrong about everything that they should do

582
00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:36,719
Speaker 11: in the Middle East, and Trump, you gotta say, has

583
00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:37,600
Speaker 11: kind of got it right.

584
00:32:38,160 --> 00:32:41,880

00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:21,160
