1
00:00:06,160 --> 00:00:09,000
Speaker 1: This is America's Truncking Network with Kevin Gordon.

2
00:00:11,320 --> 00:00:15,120
Speaker 2: Welcome aboard, Thanks for tuning in on this Tuesday morning. Well,

3
00:00:15,160 --> 00:00:19,279
Speaker 2: by now you have heard, I'm sure epic fury is

4
00:00:19,400 --> 00:00:22,799
Speaker 2: well underway. First of all, our thoughts and prayers go

5
00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:25,520
Speaker 2: out to the five up to now is it four

6
00:00:25,800 --> 00:00:29,920
Speaker 2: service members that have been killed. Originally there were three

7
00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:32,560
Speaker 2: that were killed and five that were injured. Of those five,

8
00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:35,760
Speaker 2: one has since died. So our hearts and prayers go

9
00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:38,800
Speaker 2: out to all the family members of those servicemen and

10
00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:41,479
Speaker 2: hope that that is the only one, that they are

11
00:00:41,479 --> 00:00:45,400
Speaker 2: the only ones that we will see diseased throughout this operation.

12
00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:52,320
Speaker 2: Things are really ramping up. Things are changing minute by minute.

13
00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:55,560
Speaker 2: Saturday morning, three o'clock in the morning, my wife and

14
00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:57,880
Speaker 2: I were sitting around. Actually, we were kind of wrapping up,

15
00:00:57,920 --> 00:01:00,640
Speaker 2: getting ready to go to bed. Now, granted you're kind

16
00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:02,800
Speaker 2: of wonder at three o'clock in the morning, Kevin, what

17
00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:05,279
Speaker 2: are you doing up? Well, we had watched a movie

18
00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:07,360
Speaker 2: and we'd been we sit around and we were talking

19
00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:08,840
Speaker 2: a little bit. We were just getting ready to go

20
00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:12,000
Speaker 2: to bed, and then all of a sudden we started

21
00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:15,720
Speaker 2: we checked in on Fox News or something and all

22
00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:17,800
Speaker 2: of a sudden, we saw what was going on as

23
00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:24,360
Speaker 2: far as epic fury beginning now going into Saturday and

24
00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:28,560
Speaker 2: going into the weekend. After all the negotiations that were

25
00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:37,080
Speaker 2: going on between the Trump folks, Jared Kushner and a

26
00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:40,360
Speaker 2: couple of the other people that were there, I thought

27
00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:44,600
Speaker 2: that the Iranians would come to some sort of an agreement.

28
00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:46,920
Speaker 2: As a matter of fact, at some point I was

29
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:49,800
Speaker 2: around a sixty forty thinking that there was a chance

30
00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:54,320
Speaker 2: that there something would happen, maybe even a seventy five

31
00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:57,800
Speaker 2: twenty five thought the negotiations would lead to some sort

32
00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:01,720
Speaker 2: of a settlement, And especially after you'd take into consideration

33
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:06,120
Speaker 2: back on June twenty second, that Midnight Hammer operation where

34
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:11,840
Speaker 2: between Israel and US obliterated all of the scent well

35
00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:15,600
Speaker 2: not all of the centrifuges, but a large part of

36
00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:21,000
Speaker 2: what the uranium enrichment and the bomb making capabilities. It

37
00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:24,240
Speaker 2: didn't destroy it completely, but set it back several months

38
00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:28,200
Speaker 2: and even years now. Since that time, you would think

39
00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:31,640
Speaker 2: that they would get the hint. And looking at remember

40
00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:38,520
Speaker 2: after October seventh in twenty twenty three, with the Hamas

41
00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:43,360
Speaker 2: attacking Israel and Israel being able to retaliate against those

42
00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:46,079
Speaker 2: leaders of Hamas Hezbollah.

43
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:48,520
Speaker 3: Even in remember the one guy that.

44
00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:52,120
Speaker 2: Was visiting for the I guess the inauguration of the

45
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:55,400
Speaker 2: Iranian president. They were able to take him out in

46
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:59,440
Speaker 2: a hotel room, an apartment there right in the middle

47
00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:03,760
Speaker 2: of bay Rum, not Beirut, but Tehran and all those

48
00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:08,400
Speaker 2: pagers that were exploding and killing the various members of

49
00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:11,960
Speaker 2: the senior management of Hamas. You would have thought that

50
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:16,560
Speaker 2: Tehran and Iran, especially after midnight Hammer would have gotten

51
00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:18,880
Speaker 2: the message that these guys can get us any time,

52
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:23,120
Speaker 2: anywhere they want, and we need to make the determination

53
00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:24,960
Speaker 2: of whether we want to go down with the ship

54
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:28,240
Speaker 2: or we want to be a peaceful member of the nations.

55
00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:32,960
Speaker 2: But I guess in the final analysis, the hatred of America,

56
00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:36,880
Speaker 2: and especially the hatred of Jews was more than their

57
00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:40,760
Speaker 2: love of their families and their country. And it took

58
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:45,000
Speaker 2: me back when I and I really when I started

59
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:48,960
Speaker 2: seeing all of the reports coming in and epic fury

60
00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:52,320
Speaker 2: was happening, and the report of the early reports of

61
00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:55,440
Speaker 2: what was going on, it kind of reminded me and

62
00:03:55,840 --> 00:04:00,280
Speaker 2: took me back to nineteen ninety one. Remember under Forwards

63
00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:06,280
Speaker 2: hw Bush, they had Desert Storm when Iraq had invaded

64
00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:10,320
Speaker 2: Kuwait and said that Kuwait was actually they were annexing them,

65
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:12,240
Speaker 2: that they were going to take them over and their

66
00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:16,240
Speaker 2: oil fields. And although the coalition came together and over

67
00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:19,200
Speaker 2: the several months leading up to that, they were trying

68
00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:23,520
Speaker 2: to negotiate a settlement. But then Operation Desert Storm happened

69
00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:29,080
Speaker 2: on January the seventeenth, nineteen ninety one, with aerial bombardments,

70
00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:32,880
Speaker 2: et cetera. And then January the twenty fourth, there was

71
00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:36,800
Speaker 2: a one hundred hour offensive that wound up pushing them

72
00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:39,599
Speaker 2: all the way out of Kuwait. And at that point

73
00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:41,280
Speaker 2: they were saying, we might as well just go on

74
00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:46,000
Speaker 2: to Bagdad. But Bush at the time, HW. Bush, Senior Bush, said,

75
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:49,880
Speaker 2: you know, we have the mandate from the different coalitions

76
00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:51,880
Speaker 2: that all we do is go to the border and

77
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:55,880
Speaker 2: that's it. So and you know, going leading up to that,

78
00:04:56,520 --> 00:05:00,320
Speaker 2: I was seriously probably one of the things is that

79
00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:03,960
Speaker 2: I think, well not I think I know for sure

80
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:06,760
Speaker 2: kind of pretty much got me away from when I'd

81
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:09,560
Speaker 2: get in the car and I would listen to music.

82
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:13,200
Speaker 2: I got to a point where the job I had,

83
00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:15,240
Speaker 2: I might as well just said I owned a couple

84
00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:19,320
Speaker 2: of liquor stores in Newport, and I would work late hours,

85
00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:22,400
Speaker 2: and he'd be in there for eight twelve hours a day,

86
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:25,039
Speaker 2: and you'd be kind of in a vacuum where you

87
00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:29,440
Speaker 2: didn't have any news whatsoever. And the only news I'd

88
00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:31,039
Speaker 2: get is if I took a lunch break or a

89
00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:33,520
Speaker 2: dinner break or something like that and go out to

90
00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:36,240
Speaker 2: the you know, grab a sandwich or something, and listen

91
00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:39,279
Speaker 2: to the radio, and I'd check the news at the

92
00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:41,039
Speaker 2: top of the hour. So I was listening to a

93
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:44,000
Speaker 2: lot of talk radio at that point and pretty much

94
00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:47,040
Speaker 2: got me hooked on talk radio as a result of that.

95
00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:49,880
Speaker 2: But I can remember the lead up to that and

96
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:51,800
Speaker 2: talking about how you.

97
00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:53,960
Speaker 3: Know, Saddam Hussein was saying that.

98
00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:56,440
Speaker 2: You know, if you try to attack us, we are

99
00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:58,400
Speaker 2: going to wipe you off the face of the earth.

100
00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:01,560
Speaker 2: Nobody can go up again, Star Army. We've got so

101
00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:03,880
Speaker 2: many weapons, we've got so many people, we've got so

102
00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:05,440
Speaker 2: many brave soldiers that.

103
00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:06,960
Speaker 3: We will annihilate all of you.

104
00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:09,440
Speaker 2: And at the time, I actually, I mean they were

105
00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:14,080
Speaker 2: actually reporting that the US Army, the Marines, the military

106
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:20,640
Speaker 2: had gathered up to ten thousand, ten thousand body bags,

107
00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:25,760
Speaker 2: thinking that with the ground forces, even after a serious

108
00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:29,039
Speaker 2: bombardment for a number of days, that when they eventually

109
00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:31,960
Speaker 2: went in there, they didn't know what to expect, and

110
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:36,400
Speaker 2: they were planning for the worst. And I'm thinking, my god,

111
00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:38,839
Speaker 2: that the whole world is going to come to an end,

112
00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:42,039
Speaker 2: and that you know, this is you know, our soldiers

113
00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:45,800
Speaker 2: worrying about our soldiers going over there and being annihilated

114
00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:48,320
Speaker 2: and so on, and it was really a concern. And

115
00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:52,200
Speaker 2: so every opportunity I got, I was listening to talk radio,

116
00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:53,960
Speaker 2: and I was listening to see the news at the

117
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:56,440
Speaker 2: top of the hour and listening to what was going on.

118
00:06:57,279 --> 00:07:01,400
Speaker 2: And really it proved that Saddam Hussein and his army

119
00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:03,800
Speaker 2: were a bunch of paper tigers, that it was just

120
00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:06,560
Speaker 2: a lot of saber rattling, that they weren't really all

121
00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:09,680
Speaker 2: that efficient because there weren't that many. You know, one

122
00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:12,920
Speaker 2: casualty is way too many, but there weren't nearly the

123
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:14,520
Speaker 2: amount that they had thought there would be.

124
00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:16,800
Speaker 3: And so when the.

125
00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:21,160
Speaker 2: You know, again talking about the negotiations with Iran, trying

126
00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:24,040
Speaker 2: to bring them to the table, there was really no

127
00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:27,920
Speaker 2: inkling and building of a coalition and saying that all right,

128
00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:30,640
Speaker 2: here's the deadline. If this doesn't happen, we're going to

129
00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:33,560
Speaker 2: go in and we're going to attack the nuclear facilities.

130
00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:34,080
Speaker 3: In June.

131
00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:37,680
Speaker 2: Well, you know that came about, and it was so

132
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:42,160
Speaker 2: quick and so fast, and no casualties on the part

133
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:46,160
Speaker 2: of the Americans. Then we go down and take out Maduro,

134
00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:50,240
Speaker 2: no casualties there, And I'm kind of feeling confident. But

135
00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:56,120
Speaker 2: I thought seriously that the Malus would actually put make

136
00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:59,840
Speaker 2: the determination that their country deserves to live, that they're

137
00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:02,840
Speaker 2: people deserve to live, and that they would back away

138
00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:06,400
Speaker 2: from this nuclear ambition, that they would literally come to

139
00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:09,880
Speaker 2: the negotiating table, because it kept saying we're ready to negotiate,

140
00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:12,720
Speaker 2: We're ready to negotiate. Trump put down and said, okay,

141
00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:14,360
Speaker 2: we're going to back off. We're going to go back,

142
00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:16,040
Speaker 2: We're going to back off, We're going to go back.

143
00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:19,520
Speaker 2: Kind of set a timeline of about ten to fifteen days,

144
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,320
Speaker 2: and I think it was on the ninth day that

145
00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:26,880
Speaker 2: this actually happened. So I was kind of surprised that

146
00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:31,000
Speaker 2: it happened. I was kind of surprised that they went

147
00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:34,240
Speaker 2: in when they did. But again, up to this point

148
00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:38,320
Speaker 2: for American casualties, hopefully there won't be any more than that.

149
00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:41,240
Speaker 2: Coming up, We're going to get in touch with Phil Flynn,

150
00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:44,599
Speaker 2: senior analyst Price Futures Group, kind of gave us a

151
00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:47,160
Speaker 2: heads up of what we can expect in the oil markets,

152
00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:49,880
Speaker 2: kind of get his prediction in terms of what he

153
00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:53,240
Speaker 2: sees oil prices, possibly what that will do to gas

154
00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:56,880
Speaker 2: prices because of court. You know, again, in the trucking industry,

155
00:08:57,200 --> 00:09:00,520
Speaker 2: this is extremely important, and fuel is important, and we've

156
00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:03,520
Speaker 2: got to know what directions we're heading. I'm Kevin Gordon,

157
00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:07,440

Speaker 2: to talk about epic fury and what that's going to

211
00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:57,920

213
00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:03,760
Speaker 2: so glad you were able to spend some time with

214
00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:04,200
Speaker 2: us today.

215
00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:05,520
Speaker 3: I certainly appreciate it.

216
00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:09,080
Speaker 2: You bet, so you're kind of more in tune or

217
00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:11,920
Speaker 2: because over the weekend you were sending me some stuff

218
00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:16,360
Speaker 2: in terms of different websites and sources that you had,

219
00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:19,720
Speaker 2: and saw that there was a oil field that was hit?

220
00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:25,200
Speaker 2: Was it Bahrain? And I guess around the different Middle East?

221
00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:28,400
Speaker 2: I mean, Iran is just shooting off rockets left and

222
00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:33,920
Speaker 2: right and missiles into different OPEC nations. So do we

223
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:37,440
Speaker 2: at this point know if they've been effective in terms

224
00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:40,720
Speaker 2: of disrupting the oil flow from these other countries.

225
00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:44,440
Speaker 10: Well, they haven't been totally effective, but they definitely have

226
00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:45,719
Speaker 10: slowed things down a bit.

227
00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:46,200
Speaker 11: Right.

228
00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:50,319
Speaker 10: They've been taking pot shots at tankers in the Strait

229
00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:53,280
Speaker 10: of Horror Moves, which of course was twenty percent of

230
00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:54,360
Speaker 10: the daily supply.

231
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:57,920
Speaker 11: And if they had.

232
00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:00,600
Speaker 10: Any friends, I don't think they have too any lately

233
00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:04,440
Speaker 10: because they've lashed out at just about every country surrounding themselves.

234
00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:10,120
Speaker 11: And so at this point it seems like acts.

235
00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:14,160
Speaker 10: Of desperation from what's left of the Iranian regime, but

236
00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:18,400
Speaker 10: a wounded animal is very dangerous and that could definitely

237
00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:20,480
Speaker 10: impact supplies as we move forward.

238
00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:23,720
Speaker 2: Now, I maybe I'm out of the loop here, but

239
00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:26,480
Speaker 2: have they Have they been hitting any of the tankers

240
00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:29,280
Speaker 2: in the strait of hormones or are they just.

241
00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:30,600
Speaker 11: Apparently they have?

242
00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:34,720
Speaker 10: Yeah, they apparently they have. They hit one that was

243
00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:38,720
Speaker 10: flagged to a country and in a very small country

244
00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:43,240
Speaker 10: in Indonesia. It was hit in a sort of a

245
00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:44,920
Speaker 10: wrong way corgan move.

246
00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:46,880
Speaker 11: They shot off the missile and shot.

247
00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:50,760
Speaker 10: One of their own oil tankers right now, the Iranian government,

248
00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:54,720
Speaker 10: I know, it's crazy. It shows that they're just desperate

249
00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:57,560
Speaker 10: and shooting things off and hoping they hit anything, and

250
00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:01,439
Speaker 10: they've even hit their own people. But when you look

251
00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:06,080
Speaker 10: at this, you know, the risk in the short term

252
00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:09,040
Speaker 10: is that supplies could be disrupted and there could be

253
00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:13,760
Speaker 10: some major damage. But with every missile that I RAN shoots,

254
00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:18,280
Speaker 10: the more vulnerable they become, because the ability of the

255
00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:22,480
Speaker 10: US to take out these missile sites means that every

256
00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:27,680
Speaker 10: hour that goes by, I RAN's capabilities to try to

257
00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:30,840
Speaker 10: last out and shut down the straight to horn moves

258
00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:33,480
Speaker 10: are going to be less as we move forward.

259
00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:37,520
Speaker 2: That's mate, And I guess kind of backing up a

260
00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:40,520
Speaker 2: little bit, we've got Opek, which is supposed to be

261
00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:46,120
Speaker 2: this organization of patrollum max sporting companies or countries that

262
00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:48,640
Speaker 2: are so I would have assumed if you're part of

263
00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:53,400
Speaker 2: a group, you're possibly friendly or has this just been

264
00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:56,360
Speaker 2: a because you know, I know they've threatened in the

265
00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:58,680
Speaker 2: past at all. If we're hit, we're gonna we're gonna

266
00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:02,520
Speaker 2: shoot rockets into the other. I mean at some point

267
00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:05,520
Speaker 2: if they were threatening that, why would this group still

268
00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:08,600
Speaker 2: deal with them and still have this this guy that

269
00:15:09,200 --> 00:15:10,960
Speaker 2: It's almost like, you know, every time you have a

270
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:12,560
Speaker 2: meeting or something like that, somebody.

271
00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:15,000
Speaker 3: You know, if you have a group of friends that

272
00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:15,320
Speaker 3: you go.

273
00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:17,200
Speaker 2: To hang out at a bar where you go to

274
00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:19,440
Speaker 2: dinner with or something like that, and every time you're

275
00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:22,080
Speaker 2: there there's a possibility that guy starting to fight. I

276
00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:24,760
Speaker 2: would assume that at some point in time, you can

277
00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:27,360
Speaker 2: I have or invite him to the dinner. But it

278
00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:31,520
Speaker 2: seems that they It's just so, what is the relationship.

279
00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:31,600
Speaker 3: Here or what?

280
00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:35,280
Speaker 10: I think You're absolutely right, Yeah, yeah, it was no,

281
00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:37,480
Speaker 10: I think you're absolutely right. I mean, I Ran has

282
00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:40,000
Speaker 10: been a thorn in the side for many of the members.

283
00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:47,560
Speaker 10: Uh and It's amazing how OPEK as an organization kids

284
00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:52,720
Speaker 10: try to separate politics from oil policy, and that's been

285
00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:56,000
Speaker 10: one of the things they've tried to achieve. It's never

286
00:15:56,120 --> 00:16:00,720
Speaker 10: been perfect, right, There's always been UH fights that have

287
00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:01,760
Speaker 10: broken out at some.

288
00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:02,640
Speaker 11: Of these meetings.

289
00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:09,000
Speaker 10: And you know, especially between Saudi Arabia and Iran. Saudi

290
00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:12,480
Speaker 10: Arabia and Iran have been fighting a proxy war for years.

291
00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:15,960
Speaker 10: They don't like each other, but when it comes to

292
00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:21,160
Speaker 10: the global oil market, it's in both of their best

293
00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:23,960
Speaker 10: interests to work together on that separate issue. So they're

294
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:27,760
Speaker 10: able to do that. I think secretly, behind the scene,

295
00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:32,360
Speaker 10: the majority of OPEC nations are happy that, you know,

296
00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:37,960
Speaker 10: Ayatola Comanians Kamani is dead. I think they're glad for

297
00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:42,520
Speaker 10: a change of regime. And while they won't come out

298
00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:45,360
Speaker 10: and say that, I do think that they will offer

299
00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:48,920
Speaker 10: some more oil production to try to calm the waters.

300
00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:52,800
Speaker 10: And I think, speaking from that viewpoint, raising production shows

301
00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:55,960
Speaker 10: kind of a bit of support for the US because

302
00:16:55,960 --> 00:16:59,080
Speaker 10: the US knows, of course that high oil prices will

303
00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:02,120
Speaker 10: hurt Donald Trump. So in a way, if OPEK raised

304
00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:04,800
Speaker 10: his production, they're helping donalds Trump's popularity.

305
00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:07,720
Speaker 2: So if I if I hear this properly, it's kind

306
00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:10,720
Speaker 2: of like you know these you see these comedian skits

307
00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:13,200
Speaker 2: sometimes where the guy has got his one hand up

308
00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:15,600
Speaker 2: going no, and the other one's going come on. So

309
00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:18,200
Speaker 2: is this kind of the posture of opek At this point,

310
00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:21,960
Speaker 2: we're gonna we're gonna talk publicly that hey, we don't

311
00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:24,200
Speaker 2: think this is proper. But then but you know, kind

312
00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:26,800
Speaker 2: of whispering off to the side, Hey go ahead, you.

313
00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:30,280
Speaker 11: Know, so, yeah, that's exactly it.

314
00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:31,960
Speaker 10: I think you hit the nail on the head. That's

315
00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:35,199
Speaker 10: what they've been doing for years, right, And it's the

316
00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:37,360
Speaker 10: same because you know, if you look at Iran, they

317
00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:40,480
Speaker 10: have been the thorn in the side of the Middle

318
00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:42,760
Speaker 10: East in peace, peace in the world.

319
00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:43,359
Speaker 11: Right.

320
00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:46,000
Speaker 10: You know, usually when a peace deal in the Middle

321
00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:48,800
Speaker 10: East has broken down over the last you know, thirty years,

322
00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:51,359
Speaker 10: Iran's you know, the fingerprints are all over it.

323
00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:51,800
Speaker 11: Right.

324
00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:56,040
Speaker 10: We had the Abraham Accords, Right, Abraham Accords broke down

325
00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:59,640
Speaker 10: after the Hamas attack. Well, guess who was supporting Hamas Iran?

326
00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:00,600
Speaker 11: Right?

327
00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:04,240
Speaker 10: We also had you know a lot of tension building

328
00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:08,760
Speaker 10: over the the the rebels attacking ships that split a

329
00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:11,200
Speaker 10: part o peck As well be Gauesse, who was supporting

330
00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:16,960
Speaker 10: that Iran so Iran has been a axis of its

331
00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:20,920
Speaker 10: own evol didn't need any other countries to create, you know,

332
00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:26,080
Speaker 10: dissension and instability in the Middle East, and hopefully it's

333
00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:27,520
Speaker 10: going to end. I mean, this is a regime that

334
00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:30,240
Speaker 10: tried to kill our president, try to kill our secretary

335
00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:35,160
Speaker 10: of state, you know, has unleashed terror attacks across the world.

336
00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:36,439
Speaker 11: Whether it be in Yemen and here.

337
00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:39,600
Speaker 10: So there's a lot of reasons why a lot of

338
00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:43,119
Speaker 10: Iranians are celebrated today. Having said that, you know, the

339
00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:46,800
Speaker 10: US has made some sacrifices. We've already heard some US

340
00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:52,359
Speaker 10: military people were killed sadly, and that's horrible. It's horrible,

341
00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:57,400
Speaker 10: and but we'll pray for them. But I don't think

342
00:18:57,440 --> 00:18:59,360
Speaker 10: their lives are going to be in vain. I mean,

343
00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:03,600
Speaker 10: I think this has the potential to be one of

344
00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:10,439
Speaker 10: the best historical reshuffling of the geopolitical chess board, you know,

345
00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:13,560
Speaker 10: and maybe in fifty years that could really work out

346
00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:17,040
Speaker 10: for the benefit of freedom and democracy, not only here

347
00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:19,439
Speaker 10: in the US but throughout the world.

348
00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:23,200
Speaker 2: We're speaking with Phil Flynn, senior analysts Price Future Group

349
00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:28,600
Speaker 2: now in terms of how this is developing. Opek met

350
00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:32,280
Speaker 2: yesterday on Sunday and they've decided that they're going to

351
00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:35,840
Speaker 2: up and try to make up for any of the losses.

352
00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:38,600
Speaker 3: But at this point, I mean at.

353
00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:42,040
Speaker 2: Iran was only well not only but it was producing

354
00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:46,199
Speaker 2: what three point three million barrels per day, but a

355
00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:48,879
Speaker 2: lot of that was embargoed. Much of it was only

356
00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:52,240
Speaker 2: going to China. They've not been able to go to

357
00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:54,840
Speaker 2: They've not been going to where's they're oil been going.

358
00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:59,440
Speaker 3: It's mostly to China, right in Russia, you.

359
00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:03,560
Speaker 10: Got it, China and Russia mainly mainly to China. In fact,

360
00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:08,879
Speaker 10: I think that China was importing almost all o their oil.

361
00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:09,760
Speaker 11: You know. In fact, if you.

362
00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:12,359
Speaker 10: Look at China, you know, China has to import like

363
00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:13,879
Speaker 10: over seventy percent of.

364
00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:15,920
Speaker 11: Their oil needs on a daily basis.

365
00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:18,960
Speaker 10: Right, That's why they've had to build up one of

366
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:22,720
Speaker 10: the biggest strategic patrolum reserves in the world because they

367
00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:24,800
Speaker 10: are oil dependent. You know, remember how we used to

368
00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:26,800
Speaker 10: be in the seventies. You know, we you know, OPEC

369
00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:29,160
Speaker 10: could cut off our supplies and you know, we would

370
00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:32,880
Speaker 10: run out of oil. That's where that's where China is, right,

371
00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:40,160
Speaker 10: and China has used supporting our adversaries like Russia, like Venezuela,

372
00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:45,000
Speaker 10: and obviously like Iran, And when we sanctioned the oil,

373
00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:47,600
Speaker 10: they would always buy it, you know, under the table

374
00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:53,440
Speaker 10: at cut rate prices. So in other words, China, by

375
00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:59,160
Speaker 10: buying sanctioned oil gave support to our adversaries, the guys

376
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:01,879
Speaker 10: we were trying to you know, get this straight, end

377
00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:03,959
Speaker 10: up and fly right. So that's some of the reasons

378
00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:08,280
Speaker 10: why the sanctions against these countries weren't more effective, you know.

379
00:21:08,520 --> 00:21:12,200
Speaker 10: And now that's come to an end, right, I mean,

380
00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:14,000
Speaker 10: at the end of the day, China is going to

381
00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:16,000
Speaker 10: have to go into the global market. So from a

382
00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:22,760
Speaker 10: geopolitical chessboard situation with Venezuela, you know, now becoming part

383
00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:28,280
Speaker 10: of the hemispheric energy production, with the United States, their

384
00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:29,320
Speaker 10: production is going to go up.

385
00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:30,800
Speaker 11: Our production is going to go up.

386
00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:33,480
Speaker 10: It's going to put more pressure on Cuba to get

387
00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:36,400
Speaker 10: fall into line. But where it's really going to put

388
00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:39,480
Speaker 10: pressures on China. China is not going to be able

389
00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:44,760
Speaker 10: to exploit our adversaries for economic and political purposes anymore

390
00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:47,639
Speaker 10: this time. And so I think this a tech that

391
00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:49,360
Speaker 10: I ran, and yeah.

392
00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:51,800
Speaker 2: This pretty much takes out the one leg of their

393
00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:55,600
Speaker 2: stool in terms of no longer with Venezuela, no longer

394
00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:57,920
Speaker 2: with some of these other countries, and they're only down

395
00:21:57,960 --> 00:22:01,080
Speaker 2: to basically getting oil from Iran, and now let that's

396
00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:03,600
Speaker 2: cut off, they're going to have to possibly fall online

397
00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:04,040
Speaker 2: as well.

398
00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:05,680
Speaker 3: We need to take quick break here.

399
00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:07,600
Speaker 2: When we come back, I want to talk about where

400
00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:10,560
Speaker 2: we for where we see oil prices going, maybe in

401
00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:13,359
Speaker 2: the short term, and what is defined as a short

402
00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:16,959

467
00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:55,560
Speaker 2: that other countries are going to step in and then

468
00:25:55,560 --> 00:25:59,240
Speaker 2: they're going to start supplying China And then are we

469
00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:02,920
Speaker 2: okay with that? Or how does that fit? Or we

470
00:26:02,920 --> 00:26:07,440
Speaker 2: were just not wanting ever Ran to get oil revenue.

471
00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:11,160
Speaker 10: That right, We're happy to sell China oil. They can

472
00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:14,240
Speaker 10: buy all they want, right, they got to pay full price. Right,

473
00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:17,480
Speaker 10: They're not going to get discount of cheap oil from

474
00:26:17,560 --> 00:26:19,919
Speaker 10: our adversaries like Venezuela and Iran.

475
00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:20,480
Speaker 11: Anymore.

476
00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:25,240
Speaker 10: Listen, China been building its economy on sanctioned oil.

477
00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:26,840
Speaker 11: You know, they've been cheating.

478
00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:31,960
Speaker 10: They don't recognize the sanctions, and they've kept our adversaries strong.

479
00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:32,800
Speaker 11: By sending them money.

480
00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:37,000
Speaker 10: And they've been building one of the world's largest strategic

481
00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:40,679
Speaker 10: patrolum reserved with sanctioned oil that they've been buying under

482
00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:43,879
Speaker 10: market prices. Well, that's going to end. That's going to

483
00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:47,159
Speaker 10: end today. It ended in Venezuela. Hopefully it's going to

484
00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:50,440
Speaker 10: end in Russia, and right now it looks like it's

485
00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:52,080
Speaker 10: going to end in Iran.

486
00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:54,840
Speaker 11: So this is going to be a good thing. Now

487
00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:56,760
Speaker 11: our impact.

488
00:26:56,280 --> 00:26:58,639
Speaker 10: From the price is oil to global market. I mean,

489
00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:00,320
Speaker 10: prices are going to go up at least to the

490
00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:04,080
Speaker 10: short term, but I see a history that's much brighter

491
00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:08,600
Speaker 10: with lower energy prices in China paying their affairs care

492
00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:10,480
Speaker 10: for the oil that they've been buying.

493
00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:12,600
Speaker 3: Now that's good news.

494
00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:15,639
Speaker 2: Now, we talked in the previous segment about the straight

495
00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:18,760
Speaker 2: up wore moves. I guess you can't completely stop any

496
00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:23,200
Speaker 2: missiles or whatever attacking ships there, which means that very quickly.

497
00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:26,040
Speaker 2: Ships are going to avoid that, which means that they're

498
00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:28,639
Speaker 2: going to have to go around the west part of Africa,

499
00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:31,040
Speaker 2: around the Cape of Good Hope to get over to

500
00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:34,800
Speaker 2: the Indian Sea, which adds what two to three weeks,

501
00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:38,280
Speaker 2: which will then increased costs that way because of fuel

502
00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:42,040
Speaker 2: and transportation costs. So we'll see a spike there, but

503
00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:46,119
Speaker 2: that should be very temporary and we'll get back to normal.

504
00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:50,480
Speaker 2: So I guess what in the short run, I'm sorry,

505
00:27:50,520 --> 00:27:52,320
Speaker 2: in the short run, what are we looking at in

506
00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:55,120
Speaker 2: terms of price spikes and what's that going to do?

507
00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:57,120
Speaker 3: And how long do you think that'll take?

508
00:27:57,440 --> 00:27:58,840
Speaker 10: Well, I thank you know, you're going to have the

509
00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:02,600
Speaker 10: emotional price spike, right, you know, we're hearing anywhere from

510
00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:05,200
Speaker 10: seven to ten dollars a barrow. It could be higher,

511
00:28:05,320 --> 00:28:08,720
Speaker 10: you know, depending on how the headlines play out, you know,

512
00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:11,040
Speaker 10: over the next few hours and days.

513
00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:13,640
Speaker 11: You know, when we had the attack on.

514
00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:16,679
Speaker 10: I Ran oil infrastructure merged, we had a seven to

515
00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:19,640
Speaker 10: ten dollars spike and then it was over, right, prices

516
00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:23,600
Speaker 10: went down lower than they were before the attack. This

517
00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:25,800
Speaker 10: time might be a little different. It might take a

518
00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:30,040
Speaker 10: little bit longer. If you remember the Russian Ukraine War,

519
00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:32,480
Speaker 10: we saw oil prices go up to one hundred. Now

520
00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:36,040
Speaker 10: I don't see that happening, right, I really do believe

521
00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:39,120
Speaker 10: that I Rans on its last legs. And if they

522
00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:42,720
Speaker 10: attack ships in the Strait of Hormones, they're declaring war

523
00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:46,200
Speaker 10: on the world. Right, China depends on the Strait of

524
00:28:46,240 --> 00:28:49,200
Speaker 10: Hormones to get their goods, to get their oil, right,

525
00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:51,640
Speaker 10: every other country in the world that's supposed to be

526
00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:56,120
Speaker 10: a free passage lane, and when I Ran shuts that down,

527
00:28:56,200 --> 00:29:02,600
Speaker 10: it shows that they have abolished any responsibility to international law.

528
00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:06,080
Speaker 10: And they may feel they're justified, but they're not right.

529
00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:09,560
Speaker 10: You can't go around slaughtering your own people. You can't

530
00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:12,400
Speaker 10: be doing those things. You don't think that the laws

531
00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:16,720
Speaker 10: that pertains you. But I mean seriously, drone attacks on

532
00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:22,920
Speaker 10: hotel buildings in civilian populations, supporting terror, you name it.

533
00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:25,440
Speaker 10: You know, it's good that this is coming to an end,

534
00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:28,880
Speaker 10: I think, and I think you know, from an oil standpoint,

535
00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:30,880
Speaker 10: whatever price spike we have to endure.

536
00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:31,600
Speaker 11: I think the.

537
00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:37,560
Speaker 10: Short term pain is going to present hopefully decades of

538
00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:41,720
Speaker 10: lower prices and real gains for the economy and the

539
00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:45,160
Speaker 10: role of law. And you know, geopolitical security.

540
00:29:45,880 --> 00:29:50,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, Now, if oil prices spike up, ten dollars barrel

541
00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:53,960
Speaker 2: will still be below where it was in January of

542
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:58,400
Speaker 2: twenty twenty five when Trump took office. So any spike there,

543
00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:01,360
Speaker 2: I guess we'll see some sort of an effect as

544
00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:05,040
Speaker 2: far as our gas prices are concerned. But a lot

545
00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:09,200
Speaker 2: of our production itself, and Venezuela production, will we be

546
00:30:09,240 --> 00:30:11,760
Speaker 2: seeing much of a boost that way. It might be

547
00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:15,200
Speaker 2: oil prices, but we'll be reflecting that in gasoline prices

548
00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:15,680
Speaker 2: as well.

549
00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:18,760
Speaker 10: Yeah, we're going to see gasoline prices spike. I mean

550
00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:21,600
Speaker 10: already if you look at tripa A, the price has

551
00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:22,840
Speaker 10: happened creeping up.

552
00:30:22,840 --> 00:30:25,280
Speaker 11: You know, just on the anticipation of this war.

553
00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:30,080
Speaker 10: I'm hopeful that you know, the price spike that we

554
00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:32,280
Speaker 10: see is going to be short lived, right. You know,

555
00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:34,760
Speaker 10: people were talking about a so called the oil glot.

556
00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:37,120
Speaker 10: You know that there's plenty of oil in the world,

557
00:30:38,080 --> 00:30:40,760
Speaker 10: so we should be buffered right against this.

558
00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:41,720
Speaker 11: Type of situation.

559
00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:45,520
Speaker 10: But if it looks like this is going to get

560
00:30:45,520 --> 00:30:47,800
Speaker 10: protracted and the straightform moves it's going to be shut

561
00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:51,960
Speaker 10: down for you know, weeks, then then it's a different ballgame.

562
00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:53,280
Speaker 11: You know, we could be in an era.

563
00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:57,880
Speaker 10: Of high prices for a little while. My hope and

564
00:30:58,040 --> 00:31:01,000
Speaker 10: my sense is that's not going to happen. I think

565
00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:06,240
Speaker 10: that the ability of I Ran to continue to shoot

566
00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:09,960
Speaker 10: it at tankers in the straight of Warmos is limited, right,

567
00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:13,920
Speaker 10: and so I think that that's going to be something

568
00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:15,960
Speaker 10: We're going to have to wait and see. But my

569
00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:18,760
Speaker 10: sense is it's going to have a you know, whatever

570
00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:21,120
Speaker 10: the impact is, it's going to be short lived in

571
00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:24,800
Speaker 10: better days ahead when the situation finally comes down.

572
00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:29,000
Speaker 2: We're speaking with Phil Flynn of senior Analysturprise Futures Group.

573
00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:32,520
Speaker 2: I if I pick up from your tone, you don't

574
00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:35,480
Speaker 2: seem to be panicked by this. You think it's going

575
00:31:35,480 --> 00:31:39,320
Speaker 2: to be a short term spike, but as you mentioned,

576
00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:41,600
Speaker 2: in the long run, it is going to be so

577
00:31:41,720 --> 00:31:45,640
Speaker 2: much better for the entire world economy, world oil flow,

578
00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:49,640
Speaker 2: and just people doing what most countries would want to

579
00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:52,520
Speaker 2: do is have peace and prosper I.

580
00:31:52,640 --> 00:31:57,880
Speaker 10: Am saying absolutely, I think there are better days ahead. Listen,

581
00:31:57,920 --> 00:32:00,560
Speaker 10: we've been you know, this is a regime remember that

582
00:32:00,680 --> 00:32:03,480
Speaker 10: took you know what fifty American hostage is for over

583
00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:05,800
Speaker 10: four hundred days, right, this is a regime that is

584
00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:09,480
Speaker 10: sort of war, you know, and they've been a thorn

585
00:32:09,600 --> 00:32:11,920
Speaker 10: in the side to peace right. I mean, the Iraq

586
00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:14,480
Speaker 10: War might have been over a lot quicker if I ran.

587
00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:17,920
Speaker 10: Didn't you meddle in that war. So if you go

588
00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:23,280
Speaker 10: back over history, this is a situation where this should

589
00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:25,040
Speaker 10: be a real turning point. We've got rid of a

590
00:32:25,080 --> 00:32:28,440
Speaker 10: bad regime. There's always risk because we don't know what

591
00:32:28,520 --> 00:32:31,920
Speaker 10: comes after that. But let's face it, you know what

592
00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:35,480
Speaker 10: we've had so far, it'd be hard to imagine a

593
00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:36,600
Speaker 10: regime that could be worse.

594
00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:40,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, and you would hope that the new regime or

595
00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:43,480
Speaker 2: whoever's coming in there. I think I saw the President

596
00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:46,800
Speaker 2: and the Chief Justice or whatever of their judiciary. They're

597
00:32:46,800 --> 00:32:49,680
Speaker 2: going to form some coalition to take over the duties

598
00:32:49,720 --> 00:32:55,000
Speaker 2: of the Supreme Commander or supreme whatever he is. That

599
00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:59,160
Speaker 2: hopefully they get the message that hey, you know, they're

600
00:32:59,160 --> 00:33:03,160
Speaker 2: not messing around. Maybe we've got to start playing playing

601
00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:07,360
Speaker 2: ball with everybody and be nice. And Plus, their capabilities

602
00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:11,520
Speaker 2: of being able to fire missiles and replenish those are

603
00:33:11,600 --> 00:33:15,960
Speaker 2: dwindling rapidly, so it's kind of difficult to strike out

604
00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:17,440
Speaker 2: when you don't have anything to strike out.

605
00:33:18,760 --> 00:33:22,240
Speaker 10: I agree with you, right, And I think right now,

606
00:33:22,560 --> 00:33:24,240
Speaker 10: I mean the way I look at this regime, it

607
00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:27,200
Speaker 10: reminds me of Hitler and the Bunker, right. You know,

608
00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:30,000
Speaker 10: they might have delusions they can keep this thing going,

609
00:33:30,440 --> 00:33:35,480
Speaker 10: but the reality is going to hopefully dawn on them,

610
00:33:35,720 --> 00:33:39,320
Speaker 10: right this regime, you know that fighting is going to

611
00:33:39,360 --> 00:33:40,080
Speaker 10: be useless.

612
00:33:40,320 --> 00:33:40,560
Speaker 3: Right.

613
00:33:40,920 --> 00:33:44,480
Speaker 10: The days of this regime are over, right, right? So

614
00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:46,960
Speaker 10: I mean, you know, do they want to hang on

615
00:33:47,120 --> 00:33:52,320
Speaker 10: to this you know, uh, this ideology and go down

616
00:33:52,360 --> 00:33:56,680
Speaker 10: with the ship? And I think you know, who knows?

617
00:33:56,840 --> 00:34:02,320
Speaker 10: I mean, the regime has never been we would call rational. No,

618
00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:05,360
Speaker 10: they might want to go down with the ship, so,

619
00:34:06,360 --> 00:34:09,080
Speaker 10: you know, but hopefully they will stop very soon.

620
00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:12,560
Speaker 2: And I guess the big unknown is too, is that

621
00:34:12,719 --> 00:34:16,560
Speaker 2: of the revolutionary Guard, of the various people in positions

622
00:34:16,560 --> 00:34:19,560
Speaker 2: of authority there in Iran, how many of them are

623
00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:22,480
Speaker 2: really the true believers that yeah we want to you know,

624
00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:25,799
Speaker 2: death to America, death to Israel, wipe them all off

625
00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:27,960
Speaker 2: the face of the earth. Is it just something they

626
00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:31,560
Speaker 2: were parroting because they had to, or is it really

627
00:34:31,680 --> 00:34:34,040
Speaker 2: are they true believers? Or are they just going to say,

628
00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:35,960
Speaker 2: you know what, now we don't have to worry about

629
00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:36,759
Speaker 2: this retribution.

630
00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:39,600
Speaker 3: Now we can play ball wondering. I hope that's a hope.

631
00:34:39,880 --> 00:34:41,799
Speaker 11: Yeah, well that's a hope.

632
00:34:41,800 --> 00:34:44,920
Speaker 10: I mean, listen, there are some people hardliners. From what

633
00:34:44,920 --> 00:34:47,120
Speaker 10: we've seen, there's been a few that had, you know,

634
00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:53,680
Speaker 10: protested in favor of the Ayatola and the regime, but

635
00:34:53,840 --> 00:34:56,440
Speaker 10: very small. We see more people dancing in the street

636
00:34:56,920 --> 00:34:59,360
Speaker 10: in Iran, and let's face it, there's a lot of

637
00:34:59,400 --> 00:35:02,160
Speaker 10: people that are pray, they want this regime gone, but

638
00:35:02,200 --> 00:35:04,000
Speaker 10: they're not going to come out dancing in the street

639
00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:07,239
Speaker 10: because had you done that a month month ago, when

640
00:35:07,239 --> 00:35:10,080
Speaker 10: the Ayatola was alive, you would have been slaughtered in

641
00:35:10,200 --> 00:35:14,120
Speaker 10: the street like an animal, you know. So yeah, so

642
00:35:14,200 --> 00:35:17,799
Speaker 10: they're going to be scared until things calm down. We

643
00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:20,719
Speaker 10: did hear reports though that the propaganda machine, you know,

644
00:35:20,800 --> 00:35:25,600
Speaker 10: the Iran television was just taken out, so you know,

645
00:35:25,840 --> 00:35:31,920
Speaker 10: the regime's mouthpiece has gone. So you know, I hopefully

646
00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:35,840
Speaker 10: people will rise up. This is an incredible moment in history.

647
00:35:36,440 --> 00:35:38,600
Speaker 10: I pray it's going to be for the best for

648
00:35:38,680 --> 00:35:42,480
Speaker 10: the Iranian people, right the Iranian people, let's face it,

649
00:35:42,600 --> 00:35:45,920
Speaker 10: they have been oppressed, They had been oppressed, and the

650
00:35:45,920 --> 00:35:48,960
Speaker 10: way they've treated women, the way they've treated their own citizens,

651
00:35:49,360 --> 00:35:52,319
Speaker 10: you know, the way their economy has been crushed by

652
00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:56,640
Speaker 10: these crazy policies. I think it's a new day and

653
00:35:57,040 --> 00:36:00,520
Speaker 10: hopefully we can celebrate that, but it hasn't come without

654
00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:02,320
Speaker 10: a lot of sacrifice, and we've got.

655
00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:05,040
Speaker 11: To keep that in mind. Yes, but let's hope for

656
00:36:05,080 --> 00:36:05,680
Speaker 11: a better day.

657
00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:07,719
Speaker 2: And I heard some prayers go out to the US

658
00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:10,000
Speaker 2: servicemen that have been killed up to this point, and

659
00:36:10,040 --> 00:36:13,200
Speaker 2: then hopefully that they're few and far between at this point,

660
00:36:13,280 --> 00:36:15,960
Speaker 2: and hopefully we can quickly get this regime change in

661
00:36:16,040 --> 00:36:19,239
Speaker 2: Iran and back to normal quickly, not only for the

662
00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:21,680
Speaker 2: loss of lives, but for the people of Ran and

663
00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:26,239
Speaker 2: for the basically the entire region. So, Phil, I really

664
00:36:26,239 --> 00:36:28,880

667
00:36:34,160 --> 00:36:36,120
Speaker 3: But I guess it's a thank you.

668
00:36:36,640 --> 00:36:39,680
Speaker 10: It's good and bad and everything. We'll just keep praying,

669
00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:43,120
Speaker 10: pray for peace and pray for a quick resolution to this.

689
00:37:42,760 --> 00:37:44,799
Speaker 2: Flynn for spending time with us. I mean, he has

690
00:37:44,880 --> 00:37:48,600
Speaker 2: been one busy person. I saw him what was it

691
00:37:48,719 --> 00:37:52,879
Speaker 2: Sunday morning on Fox and Friends, and then I saw

692
00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:56,440
Speaker 2: a rebroadcast of his interview on one of the I

693
00:37:56,480 --> 00:37:59,439
Speaker 2: think it was a Faulkner Focus or something that they had.

694
00:37:59,640 --> 00:38:03,640
Speaker 2: They did special edition on Sunday afternoon. And he has

695
00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:07,000
Speaker 2: been he told me that he's on call. He's walking

696
00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:10,000
Speaker 2: around his house in his suit all day long.

697
00:38:10,760 --> 00:38:12,799
Speaker 3: He basically is he was telling me that.

698
00:38:13,239 --> 00:38:16,160
Speaker 2: He's on call, and generally they'll call him and say, hey,

699
00:38:16,160 --> 00:38:18,319
Speaker 2: you ready to go on in about ten minutes. So

700
00:38:18,560 --> 00:38:21,319
Speaker 2: all day long he's sitting there ready for his home

701
00:38:21,360 --> 00:38:24,600
Speaker 2: studio in his suit, getting ready to go on the air.

702
00:38:25,040 --> 00:38:29,440
Speaker 2: But he has been on CNBC, he's been on Fox

703
00:38:29,560 --> 00:38:32,040
Speaker 2: Business News, and the fact that he took time to

704
00:38:32,080 --> 00:38:34,560
Speaker 2: spend time with us here in America's truck and Network

705
00:38:34,840 --> 00:38:38,640
Speaker 2: speaks volumes to how important he feels you are out

706
00:38:38,719 --> 00:38:42,799
Speaker 2: there in terms of the audience and trying to get

707
00:38:42,840 --> 00:38:45,360
Speaker 2: a handle on and bring some comfort to you in

708
00:38:45,440 --> 00:38:48,920
Speaker 2: terms of oil prices, what's going on in the market.

709
00:38:49,080 --> 00:38:51,600
Speaker 2: So that's one less thing you guys have to worry

710
00:38:51,600 --> 00:38:54,520
Speaker 2: about out there, and I really appreciate him for doing that.

711
00:38:54,760 --> 00:38:57,600
Speaker 2: He's been a very good friend of the show now

712
00:38:57,719 --> 00:39:01,040
Speaker 2: I've been hearing and of course later on and by

713
00:39:01,080 --> 00:39:04,520
Speaker 2: the way, if you miss Phil Flynn's segment or any

714
00:39:04,520 --> 00:39:06,440
Speaker 2: of our segments or any of our shows, make sure

715
00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:09,160
Speaker 2: you hit up that iHeartRadio app brought to you by

716
00:39:09,160 --> 00:39:11,840
Speaker 2: our friends at Rush Truck Centers. Now we're going to

717
00:39:11,880 --> 00:39:14,360
Speaker 2: be hearing, and I've been hearing a lot, and especially

718
00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:17,919
Speaker 2: from my congressman. And don't get me started on him.

719
00:39:18,440 --> 00:39:21,600
Speaker 2: I've about had it with him talking about him getting

720
00:39:21,680 --> 00:39:26,440
Speaker 2: together with Rocanna and is going to force or I

721
00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:29,280
Speaker 2: heard somebody say they want to throw Trump in jail

722
00:39:29,360 --> 00:39:33,640
Speaker 2: for violating the Constitution, that they're in violation of the

723
00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:37,480
Speaker 2: War Powers Act and they want to force this vote. Now,

724
00:39:38,040 --> 00:39:41,080
Speaker 2: the thing about the War Powers Act, if I understand

725
00:39:41,160 --> 00:39:46,319
Speaker 2: it correctly, is that any one member of Congress or

726
00:39:46,440 --> 00:39:50,960
Speaker 2: the Senate can actually call for a vote as to

727
00:39:51,040 --> 00:39:54,000
Speaker 2: whether or not that vote actually goes through. I'm not

728
00:39:54,040 --> 00:39:57,239
Speaker 2: sure if that requires a vote at that point or

729
00:39:57,239 --> 00:40:01,120
Speaker 2: if it does. But under the War Powers Act, the

730
00:40:01,360 --> 00:40:06,080
Speaker 2: process of that is that the President must submit to

731
00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:10,680
Speaker 2: a report to Congress within forty eight hours of deploying

732
00:40:10,719 --> 00:40:17,680
Speaker 2: troops into hostile hostilities or eminent hostilities. Now, since this

733
00:40:17,960 --> 00:40:21,279
Speaker 2: was enacted back in nineteen seventy three, they developed this

734
00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:25,319
Speaker 2: program because quite honestly, you can't trust a lot of

735
00:40:25,360 --> 00:40:26,480
Speaker 2: members of Congress.

736
00:40:26,680 --> 00:40:28,080
Speaker 3: We saw that during.

737
00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:32,920
Speaker 2: The Russia Russia Russia investigation.

738
00:40:32,760 --> 00:40:35,080
Speaker 3: Where they were.

739
00:40:35,239 --> 00:40:42,120
Speaker 2: Taking testimonies in private, and then they would somehow mysteriously

740
00:40:42,560 --> 00:40:45,879
Speaker 2: some of the transcripts or what was going on came

741
00:40:45,920 --> 00:40:49,240
Speaker 2: out to the people, and that this was being leaked

742
00:40:49,239 --> 00:40:53,200
Speaker 2: by members of Congress, and so you can't trust them,

743
00:40:53,440 --> 00:40:56,120
Speaker 2: and so they developed this process of having what they

744
00:40:56,160 --> 00:40:59,680
Speaker 2: referred to as the Gang of Eight, and quite honestly,

745
00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:02,280
Speaker 2: should have checked this out. But I'm going to guess

746
00:41:02,600 --> 00:41:05,440
Speaker 2: that it's four members of the House and four members

747
00:41:05,440 --> 00:41:08,480
Speaker 2: of the Senate that are part of the intelligence committees

748
00:41:08,680 --> 00:41:13,120
Speaker 2: within each one of those portions of Congress, the House

749
00:41:13,200 --> 00:41:17,120
Speaker 2: and the Senate, and then when something like this transpires,

750
00:41:17,600 --> 00:41:23,840
Speaker 2: they are informed, which then substitute the notification of Congress

751
00:41:23,880 --> 00:41:28,280
Speaker 2: itself the entire four hundred actually five hundred and thirty

752
00:41:28,280 --> 00:41:30,799
Speaker 2: five members, because you got four hundred and thirty five

753
00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:34,200
Speaker 2: Congressmen and one hundred senators, so five hundred and thirty

754
00:41:34,200 --> 00:41:38,560
Speaker 2: five members of Congress. Then troops must be removed within

755
00:41:38,719 --> 00:41:43,880
Speaker 2: sixty days, barring a thirty day extension allowed by Congress

756
00:41:44,239 --> 00:41:49,400
Speaker 2: if the hostilities don't come to an end, and after

757
00:41:49,480 --> 00:41:52,279
Speaker 2: sixty days anything has to be approved by Congress from

758
00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:55,919
Speaker 2: that point in time. So I don't understand why this

759
00:41:56,040 --> 00:42:00,759
Speaker 2: is a constitutional crisis for some of these more and

760
00:42:00,800 --> 00:42:04,319
Speaker 2: I say that because one of my congressman from my

761
00:42:04,520 --> 00:42:06,839
Speaker 2: district is one of the people leading this up.

762
00:42:07,239 --> 00:42:08,360
Speaker 3: I don't know what he's on.

763
00:42:08,800 --> 00:42:11,280
Speaker 2: I don't know what he's doing, but I don't agree

764
00:42:11,280 --> 00:42:13,319
Speaker 2: with him at all on this, and I have been

765
00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:16,279
Speaker 2: a major supporter of his over the years. We won't

766
00:42:16,320 --> 00:42:18,760
Speaker 2: get into that now, but just suffice it to say

767
00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:21,799
Speaker 2: he doesn't please me at this point. Now, I don't

768
00:42:21,840 --> 00:42:25,400
Speaker 2: understand where they're coming up with this constitutional crisis that

769
00:42:25,440 --> 00:42:28,400
Speaker 2: he's violated the constitution and being thrown in jail and

770
00:42:28,440 --> 00:42:29,440
Speaker 2: all this sort of stuff.

771
00:42:30,160 --> 00:42:31,280
Speaker 3: It's a bunch of crap.

772
00:42:31,680 --> 00:42:35,359
Speaker 2: And these people, you know, according to everything that I've read,

773
00:42:35,640 --> 00:42:39,040
Speaker 2: everything that I've seen, their way off base. And so

774
00:42:39,800 --> 00:42:42,040
Speaker 2: the whole idea of this is just they're trying to

775
00:42:42,080 --> 00:42:46,160
Speaker 2: show something their constituents. Yet here we have what we

776
00:42:46,280 --> 00:42:50,600
Speaker 2: have kind of a soft confirmation, probably one of the

777
00:42:51,400 --> 00:42:57,760
Speaker 2: weakest endorsements I've ever heard from the Prime Minister of England,

778
00:42:58,400 --> 00:43:02,920
Speaker 2: but almost every country in fact, ever since Iran started

779
00:43:02,960 --> 00:43:06,239
Speaker 2: shooting off these rockets into their neighbors, And as we

780
00:43:06,360 --> 00:43:09,160
Speaker 2: talked about with Phil Flynn, the fact that these people

781
00:43:09,200 --> 00:43:13,360
Speaker 2: would actually lash out to members of their organization OPEK

782
00:43:13,880 --> 00:43:17,040
Speaker 2: and attack them. These people have now said, you know what,

783
00:43:17,400 --> 00:43:20,759
Speaker 2: We've had it. We're jumping into the fray, and you

784
00:43:20,760 --> 00:43:23,960
Speaker 2: know you are now the odd man out. So almost

785
00:43:24,040 --> 00:43:27,239
Speaker 2: all the countries around the world, with the exception of

786
00:43:27,320 --> 00:43:31,799
Speaker 2: Russia and China, have actually condemned Iran and have been

787
00:43:31,840 --> 00:43:34,759
Speaker 2: supported the United States and Israel in this measure. So

788
00:43:35,320 --> 00:43:37,920
Speaker 2: you know, we've got more support around the world than

789
00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:41,000
Speaker 2: we do from our own congressman and center, certain congressmen

790
00:43:41,080 --> 00:43:42,880
Speaker 2: and senators in this country.

791
00:43:43,120 --> 00:43:46,600
Speaker 3: And it's not really does not please me at all.

792
00:43:47,160 --> 00:43:51,200
Speaker 2: And this whole concept of of well, where is this

793
00:43:51,360 --> 00:43:56,120
Speaker 2: eminent danger, where is this threat? Where is this you

794
00:43:56,160 --> 00:43:59,640
Speaker 2: know they keep talking about this. Let's not forget you

795
00:43:59,760 --> 00:44:04,839
Speaker 2: got to go back forty seven years to win the Iranians.

796
00:44:04,880 --> 00:44:08,400
Speaker 2: At that time, the students, so to speak, took over

797
00:44:08,520 --> 00:44:13,240
Speaker 2: our embassy, kept four point fifty two of our people

798
00:44:13,360 --> 00:44:17,800
Speaker 2: in that embassy held hostage for four hundred and forty

799
00:44:17,840 --> 00:44:20,680
Speaker 2: four days at the tail end of the Carter administration.

800
00:44:21,200 --> 00:44:24,359
Speaker 2: And the only reason those people were released was when

801
00:44:24,440 --> 00:44:27,680
Speaker 2: Reagan was elected. He said, those people better be on

802
00:44:27,719 --> 00:44:30,760
Speaker 2: a plane and be home by the time I take office,

803
00:44:31,000 --> 00:44:33,040
Speaker 2: or all hill is going to break loose and sure

804
00:44:33,080 --> 00:44:35,399
Speaker 2: as hell. They took him at his word and they

805
00:44:35,400 --> 00:44:39,200
Speaker 2: brought them home. We had the Beirut bombings, We had

806
00:44:39,760 --> 00:44:43,120
Speaker 2: the US embassy and marine attacks the marine barracks, remember

807
00:44:43,160 --> 00:44:46,680
Speaker 2: eleven in nineteen eighty three, over three this was done

808
00:44:46,680 --> 00:44:50,200
Speaker 2: by Iran. Over three hundred of our service members were killed.

809
00:44:50,520 --> 00:44:55,600
Speaker 2: Nineteen eighty five, twa flight eight forty seven hijacking Hesbolataris

810
00:44:55,880 --> 00:44:57,200
Speaker 2: hijacked and killed a.

811
00:44:57,320 --> 00:44:58,720
Speaker 3: US Navy diver.

812
00:44:59,239 --> 00:45:04,000
Speaker 2: In another situation where they hijacked a plane, they actually

813
00:45:04,080 --> 00:45:08,120
Speaker 2: took a Jewish man who was in a wheelchair, killed

814
00:45:08,200 --> 00:45:11,520
Speaker 2: him and tossed his body out on the tarmac. As well,

815
00:45:11,680 --> 00:45:16,280
Speaker 2: we had the Kobar Towers of bombing in nineteen ninety six,

816
00:45:16,560 --> 00:45:20,920
Speaker 2: truck bombing in Saudi Arabia kills nineteen US airmen.

817
00:45:21,440 --> 00:45:25,520
Speaker 3: And let's not forget all of the IEDs.

818
00:45:25,440 --> 00:45:32,080
Speaker 2: From not only Iraq but Afghanistan and maimed, killed, injured.

819
00:45:32,280 --> 00:45:36,120
Speaker 2: So many of our soldiers were manufactured and supplied to them,

820
00:45:36,719 --> 00:45:38,600
Speaker 2: the folks in Afghanistan, in.

821
00:45:38,520 --> 00:45:42,160
Speaker 3: Iraq, the terraces there by by Iran.

822
00:45:42,520 --> 00:45:46,880
Speaker 2: In Iraq and Afghanistan, all those IEDs were manufactured and

823
00:45:46,920 --> 00:45:51,120
Speaker 2: supplied by Iran, and every time I see one of

824
00:45:51,120 --> 00:45:55,440
Speaker 2: those Tunnel to Towers commercials where you see these people maimed,

825
00:45:56,680 --> 00:46:00,560
Speaker 2: two legs and an arm missing, burned faces, all that

826
00:46:00,600 --> 00:46:03,600
Speaker 2: sort of stuff, and I look at the injuries on them.

827
00:46:03,920 --> 00:46:09,720
Speaker 2: I don't have any sympathy for what's going on in Iran.

828
00:46:09,880 --> 00:46:12,680
Speaker 2: I don't want to see there are citizens killed, but

829
00:46:12,719 --> 00:46:17,480
Speaker 2: by God, their country needs to have a regime change there,

830
00:46:17,800 --> 00:46:20,120
Speaker 2: and I applaud what's going on, and I'm in full

831
00:46:20,160 --> 00:46:22,280
Speaker 2: support of it. There's a whole bunch of other things

832
00:46:22,440 --> 00:46:24,440
Speaker 2: I wish we had time to get to, but we're

833
00:46:24,520 --> 00:46:26,960
