1 00:00:01,639 --> 00:00:04,960 Speaker 1: As we've just learned that the United States of America 2 00:00:05,160 --> 00:00:07,920 Speaker 1: has become a combatant in the what I call the 3 00:00:07,960 --> 00:00:08,680 Speaker 1: Persian War. 4 00:00:08,920 --> 00:00:12,480 Speaker 2: Iran's Ki nuclear and Richmond facilities have been completely and 5 00:00:12,520 --> 00:00:13,960 Speaker 2: totally obliterated. 6 00:00:16,480 --> 00:00:19,040 Speaker 3: Well we entered the war. Now at least three B 7 00:00:19,160 --> 00:00:22,720 Speaker 3: two bombers dropped on Pordo. That is an awful lot 8 00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:25,960 Speaker 3: of ammunition. That's the homasey equipment of a small nuclear bomber. 9 00:00:25,760 --> 00:00:28,520 Speaker 4: Around the bully of the Middle East. Let's now make peace. 10 00:00:28,680 --> 00:00:31,280 Speaker 2: If they do not, future attacks would be far greater 11 00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:32,559 Speaker 2: and a lot easier. 12 00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:36,200 Speaker 5: The Israeli's bid off more than they could chew. Let's 13 00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:36,800 Speaker 5: just be blunt. 14 00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:40,680 Speaker 1: The Americans came out on a President Trump in a 15 00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:43,240 Speaker 1: target package, and I think he's sitting there going, hey, 16 00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:43,920 Speaker 1: this is it. 17 00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:45,800 Speaker 5: I want you guys to stand down. 18 00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:46,600 Speaker 6: Were at war. 19 00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:49,159 Speaker 7: They will respond, they will have to respond, and our 20 00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:51,080 Speaker 7: boys are sitting right off the coast. 21 00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:54,200 Speaker 8: We did what no one else could do. 22 00:00:54,720 --> 00:01:02,520 Speaker 9: This is your fight from here, wanting to attack us back, we. 23 00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:06,039 Speaker 7: Will lose Young Pullings. 24 00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:09,119 Speaker 8: You guys take over. We did what no. 25 00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:11,160 Speaker 3: One else could do with the B fifty two's the 26 00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:14,679 Speaker 3: early satellite imagery, I'm told shows a. 27 00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:18,320 Speaker 6: Complete destruction of that zone. They have not signaled any 28 00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:19,840 Speaker 6: desire for beef. 29 00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:23,000 Speaker 10: Americans are very concerned that this might lead us into 30 00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:23,560 Speaker 10: the next war. 31 00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:28,880 Speaker 11: Any kinetic response would result in extreme destruction in Iran 32 00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:30,160 Speaker 11: and throughout the police. 33 00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:33,040 Speaker 2: There's no military in the world that could have done 34 00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:34,080 Speaker 2: what we did tonight. 35 00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:37,120 Speaker 1: If the Iranians don't stand down, that's when it's going 36 00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:37,840 Speaker 1: to get interesting. 37 00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:47,640 Speaker 12: Welcome to special coverage here on Real America's Voice on 38 00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:51,760 Speaker 12: this Sunday, June twenty second, twenty twenty five. Of course, 39 00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:54,120 Speaker 12: these two days, I would say, yesterday June twenty first 40 00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:58,080 Speaker 12: and today very historic days in American history. As you 41 00:01:58,240 --> 00:01:59,960 Speaker 12: just heard, for those of you who may have miss 42 00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:04,560 Speaker 12: by some chance, yesterday the United States struck with precision, 43 00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:08,960 Speaker 12: with massive bombs the three main nuclear sites in Iran, 44 00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:11,960 Speaker 12: bringing the United States directly into this conflict. 45 00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:12,959 Speaker 13: Here's video. 46 00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:16,080 Speaker 12: We have video now of that explosion, just moments after 47 00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:19,240 Speaker 12: the bomb hit. This is from fordaw and you can 48 00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:23,200 Speaker 12: see not quite a mushroom cloud, but massive, massive bomb 49 00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:26,840 Speaker 12: there and of course the resulting fire and smoke. President 50 00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:29,560 Speaker 12: Trump spoke to the nation, joining me now for to 51 00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:30,720 Speaker 12: help me with this live coverage. 52 00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:32,000 Speaker 13: This morning is Frank Gaffney. 53 00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:35,880 Speaker 12: Frank Gaffney, a longtime security and terrorism expert who is 54 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:39,240 Speaker 12: also a host here on Real America's Voice. Frank, at 55 00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:41,760 Speaker 12: the very least, all you can say is this is 56 00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:44,919 Speaker 12: a very very historic time. But I also want everyone 57 00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:47,760 Speaker 12: to understand, while this is an enormous moment, I don't 58 00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:52,760 Speaker 12: think the American people should be overly, overly frightened this morning. Obviously, 59 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:56,359 Speaker 12: be cautious, be vigilant, be smart. But what has happened 60 00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 12: today is something that I think was a long time coming. 61 00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:01,520 Speaker 12: This was a the number one killer regime in the 62 00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:05,240 Speaker 12: world for four decades. More than that they had this coming. 63 00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:07,839 Speaker 12: Wish it didn't have to come to this, but I'm 64 00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:10,440 Speaker 12: sure you would agree. This is a very very bad 65 00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 12: enemy of the United States that has now been very 66 00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:13,800 Speaker 12: measurably weakened. 67 00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:18,760 Speaker 14: I pray that so, I believe it so, and I 68 00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:24,120 Speaker 14: think it's absolutely warranted and frankly long long overdue. The 69 00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 14: tragedy is that successive American presidents did not have several 70 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:35,000 Speaker 14: things that Donald Trump has had. Fortunately, one is courage. 71 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:41,600 Speaker 14: Another is a vision of the threat here that he 72 00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:46,200 Speaker 14: has been very clear for I think a decade or more, 73 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:52,840 Speaker 14: and he also had an Israel that was prepared to 74 00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:55,520 Speaker 14: do the heavy lifting on as much of it as 75 00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:59,560 Speaker 14: it could and did and created the conditions under which 76 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:05,520 Speaker 14: those be two bombers and those cruise missiles were able 77 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 14: to reach their targets with precision and without fortunately any 78 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:15,480 Speaker 14: apparent losses. And the question that I think we do 79 00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:16,760 Speaker 14: need to drill down on. 80 00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:18,159 Speaker 15: Now is. 81 00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:26,080 Speaker 14: Will we sit and wait for Iran to retaliate? And 82 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:28,039 Speaker 14: let me just say, Iran, I think we ought to 83 00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:32,080 Speaker 14: very outset set the stage here. We're talking about the 84 00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:36,400 Speaker 14: Iranian regime. We're not talking about the people of Iran. 85 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 14: Our friend Steve Bannon talks about the Lau Baijing of China. 86 00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:42,520 Speaker 14: I think of the people of Iran as the Lau 87 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:46,360 Speaker 14: Baijing of Iran. The people have no say in what 88 00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:50,599 Speaker 14: this government has been doing to them or aspires to do. 89 00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:52,880 Speaker 14: To Israel for sure, and to the rest of us. 90 00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:55,600 Speaker 14: I believe they don't want any part of that, and 91 00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:59,080 Speaker 14: we ought to be now ensuring and I think the 92 00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:02,200 Speaker 14: Israelis are more than prepared to do it, that they 93 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 14: finish the job by removing the last vestiges of this regime. 94 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:12,599 Speaker 14: So the people, you know, that might attack our forces 95 00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:17,080 Speaker 14: in the Gulf. The people who are clearly intent on 96 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:20,320 Speaker 14: continuing to attack Israel, and the people who may be 97 00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:27,480 Speaker 14: commanding sleeper cells or even assassination teams in our country 98 00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:31,480 Speaker 14: are out of business. They're no longer able to command 99 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:36,320 Speaker 14: those forces to do what we think they might certainly 100 00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:40,359 Speaker 14: be capable of doing and bring an in. That President 101 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:43,160 Speaker 14: is talking about peace, I submit to you, Jake, that 102 00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 14: peace can only be achieved once the well the regime 103 00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:51,360 Speaker 14: is done. I don't want to call it regime change. 104 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:55,720 Speaker 14: I want to call it free Iran, because that's what's 105 00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:58,640 Speaker 14: going to I think secure us as well as others 106 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:02,800 Speaker 14: from the preditions that this outfit may yet seek to do. 107 00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:06,239 Speaker 12: Yeah, that's a very very good point. 108 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:08,360 Speaker 13: Another good point that I should have made off right 109 00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:08,840 Speaker 13: off the top. 110 00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:12,480 Speaker 12: We are expecting Secretary Defense Pete Hegg's Secretary of Defense 111 00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:17,279 Speaker 12: Pete Hegseth and Jordan Chiefs Chairman Dan Kin to address 112 00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:20,080 Speaker 12: the nation at eight am Eastern time. We're speaking to 113 00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 12: you now just after seven am Eastern time, so we'll 114 00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:26,160 Speaker 12: be bringing you live coverage as we await those talks, 115 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:29,240 Speaker 12: and if anything, we can go by President Trump's timeline 116 00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:31,520 Speaker 12: last night. I think we can expect that eight am 117 00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:36,240 Speaker 12: time to be pretty well respected by a Secretary Hegseth 118 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:38,599 Speaker 12: and General Kine. So that, of course will be our 119 00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:42,960 Speaker 12: latest update on where things stand. To your point, Frank 120 00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:46,440 Speaker 12: Gaffney about not being able to go any further down 121 00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:49,680 Speaker 12: the negotiation road, that was not the United States choice. 122 00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:55,120 Speaker 12: As recently as yesterday in Geneva, talks about Iran's nuclear 123 00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:59,080 Speaker 12: program between Iran and some of the European powers ended 124 00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:02,120 Speaker 12: as you might have expected, with no success, with the 125 00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:06,520 Speaker 12: Iranian dignitaries leaving those talks as defiant as ever. I 126 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:08,760 Speaker 12: don't know if that was the trigger point for President 127 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:11,000 Speaker 12: Trump to light the green light on this attack, but 128 00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:13,480 Speaker 12: it wouldn't surprise me, although I think, of course this 129 00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:18,160 Speaker 12: was planned, planned for many months, maybe even years before yesterday. 130 00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:21,880 Speaker 12: So look the idea that this is some kind of 131 00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 12: willy nilly impulsive attack, which is what people like Congresswoman 132 00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 12: AOC are calling it and other people are erroneously calling it. 133 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:32,160 Speaker 13: It couldn't be further from the truth. 134 00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:34,760 Speaker 12: This has been in the works, as he said, Frank Gafney, 135 00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:39,480 Speaker 12: for many, many, many years. I think before we continue talking, though, 136 00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:41,400 Speaker 12: for those of you who missed it. I think it's very, 137 00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 12: very important that we listened to President Trump's announcement to 138 00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:46,480 Speaker 12: the nation. It's a short one, but it's one of 139 00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:49,320 Speaker 12: the most consequential speeches of our time, and I think 140 00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:51,360 Speaker 12: it's important for us to hear what President Trump had 141 00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:51,640 Speaker 12: to say. 142 00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:53,239 Speaker 13: Listen to this, Thank you very much. 143 00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 2: A short time ago, the US military carried out massive 144 00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:03,440 Speaker 2: precision strikes on the three key nuclear facilities in the 145 00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:12,160 Speaker 2: Iranian regime, Fordeaux, Natance, and Esfahan. Everybody heard those names 146 00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:18,120 Speaker 2: for years as they built this horribly destructive enterprise. Our 147 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:23,240 Speaker 2: objective was the destruction of Iran's nuclear inrichment capacity and 148 00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:27,200 Speaker 2: a stop to the nuclear threat posed by the world's 149 00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:30,920 Speaker 2: number one state sponsor of terror. Tonight, I can report 150 00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:37,040 Speaker 2: to the world that the strikes were a spectacular military success. 151 00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:41,320 Speaker 2: Iran's key nuclear and Richmond facilities have been completely and 152 00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:46,280 Speaker 2: totally obliterated. Iran, the bully of the Middle East, must 153 00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:49,800 Speaker 2: now make peace. If they do not, future attacks would 154 00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:53,520 Speaker 2: be far greater and a lot easier. For forty years, 155 00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 2: Iran has been saying death to America, death to Israel. 156 00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 2: They have been killing our people, blowing off their arms 157 00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:03,480 Speaker 2: blowing off their legs with roadside bombs. 158 00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:05,559 Speaker 4: That was their specialty. 159 00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:09,439 Speaker 2: We lost over a thousand people, and hundreds of thousands 160 00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:12,680 Speaker 2: throughout the Middle East and around the world have died 161 00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:15,920 Speaker 2: as a direct result of their hate. In particular, so 162 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:22,400 Speaker 2: many were killed by their General Cassem Solomoni. I decided 163 00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:25,400 Speaker 2: a long time ago that I would not let this happen. 164 00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:26,800 Speaker 4: It will not continue. 165 00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:31,640 Speaker 2: I want to thank and congratulate Prime Minister bb Net Yahoo. 166 00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:35,120 Speaker 2: We worked as a team like perhaps no team has 167 00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:39,719 Speaker 2: ever worked before, and we've gone a long way to erasing. 168 00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:40,840 Speaker 4: This horrible threat to Israel. 169 00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:44,800 Speaker 2: I want to thank the Israeli military for the wonderful 170 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:48,439 Speaker 2: job they've done. And most importantly, I want to congratulate 171 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:52,560 Speaker 2: the great American patriots who flew those magnificent machines tonight, 172 00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:56,440 Speaker 2: and all of the United States military on an operation 173 00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:59,040 Speaker 2: the likes of which the world has not seen in many, 174 00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:03,600 Speaker 2: many decades. Hopefully we will no longer need their services 175 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:04,640 Speaker 2: and this capacity. 176 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:05,800 Speaker 4: I hope that's so. 177 00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:09,320 Speaker 2: I also want to congratulate the Chairman of the Joint 178 00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:14,560 Speaker 2: chiefs of Staff, General Dan Raisin Kane, spectacular general, and 179 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 2: all of the brilliant military minds involved in this attack. 180 00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:21,600 Speaker 2: With all of that being said, this cannot continue. There 181 00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:25,480 Speaker 2: will be either peace or there will be tragedy for Iran, 182 00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:30,440 Speaker 2: far greater than we have witnessed over the last eight days. Remember, 183 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:35,319 Speaker 2: there are many targets left to Night's was the most 184 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:39,360 Speaker 2: difficult of them all by far, and perhaps the most lethal. 185 00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:42,520 Speaker 2: But if peace does not come quickly, we will go 186 00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:48,800 Speaker 2: after those other targets with precision, speed and skill. Most 187 00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:51,760 Speaker 2: of them can be taken out in a matter of minutes. 188 00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:54,560 Speaker 2: There's no military in the world that could have done 189 00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:57,720 Speaker 2: what we did tonight, not even closed. There has never 190 00:10:57,760 --> 00:11:00,800 Speaker 2: been a military that could do what took place just 191 00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:05,720 Speaker 2: a little while ago. Tomorrow, General Kine, Secretary of Defense 192 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:09,440 Speaker 2: Pete heigsth we'll have a press conference at eight am 193 00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:12,760 Speaker 2: at the Pentagon, and I want to just thank everybody, 194 00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:16,199 Speaker 2: and in particular God. 195 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 4: I want to just say, we love you God, and 196 00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:21,560 Speaker 4: we love our great military. Protect them. 197 00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:25,559 Speaker 2: God bless the Middle East, God bless Israel, and God 198 00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:27,160 Speaker 2: bless America. 199 00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:28,920 Speaker 4: Thank you very much. Thank you. 200 00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:31,160 Speaker 13: Frank Afney. 201 00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:33,520 Speaker 12: You know when I think of it, when I see 202 00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:35,120 Speaker 12: that speech, the thing I think of you can have 203 00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:37,160 Speaker 12: all the military superiority in the world. 204 00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:40,400 Speaker 13: You can have all the political clout in. 205 00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:42,920 Speaker 12: The world and all the good reasons in the world 206 00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:45,319 Speaker 12: to carry out an attack like the United States did 207 00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:48,239 Speaker 12: last night, But unless you have a leader to articulate 208 00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:51,920 Speaker 12: to the people exactly why and what happened, like President 209 00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:55,200 Speaker 12: Trump did just last night, it doesn't matter. And I 210 00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:57,240 Speaker 12: think that he was able to check that box and 211 00:11:57,320 --> 00:12:00,280 Speaker 12: then some last evening with that in address. 212 00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:04,040 Speaker 14: It was short, but it was very much to the point, 213 00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:07,839 Speaker 14: and it seems to me that it touched the key 214 00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:13,240 Speaker 14: aspects of where we are at the moment. One, he 215 00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:20,320 Speaker 14: obviously commended the exemplary service and performance, the skill, the 216 00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 14: courage of the military men and women who performed these strikes. 217 00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:33,920 Speaker 14: Two he spoke very pointedly about the partnership the team 218 00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:39,880 Speaker 14: that he has helped lead with Benjamin Netanyahu, the Prime 219 00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:44,920 Speaker 14: Minister of Israel. And Three he made it very clear 220 00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:53,360 Speaker 14: that this would continue if the Iranian regime persisted in 221 00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:57,199 Speaker 14: doing what it has done for forty six years, which 222 00:12:57,280 --> 00:13:01,160 Speaker 14: is not only threatened to bring death to America but 223 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:05,840 Speaker 14: actually done so repeatedly, and whatever got a chance and 224 00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:10,480 Speaker 14: has planned to do much much worse. Of course, again 225 00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:14,000 Speaker 14: just to Israel, and frankly, Jake, not just to the 226 00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:19,920 Speaker 14: United States. I think their purpose, the agenda, the idiologically 227 00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:24,680 Speaker 14: driven mission of these Mullahs, has been to bring down 228 00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:28,599 Speaker 14: Western civilization, Judeo Christian civilization, which brings me to the 229 00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:33,520 Speaker 14: last point. I was very touched and I believe it 230 00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:38,080 Speaker 14: was the most important part of that speech. The President 231 00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:42,400 Speaker 14: thanked God, and I think it ties into something that 232 00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:47,000 Speaker 14: I've been convicted of since he was very nearly assassinated, 233 00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:50,240 Speaker 14: and I think it's been on his heart as well, 234 00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:53,800 Speaker 14: that he was saved for a purpose. And I don't 235 00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:56,080 Speaker 14: take anything away from the importance of him saving our 236 00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:58,800 Speaker 14: country in the election last year, but I do think 237 00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:03,520 Speaker 14: that this may be the ultimate mission to save Yes Israel, 238 00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:07,800 Speaker 14: to save Yes America, but also to save Western civilization 239 00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:11,880 Speaker 14: from what I think of as Sharia supremacism as practiced 240 00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:14,160 Speaker 14: by these mulas. And again, I would just come back 241 00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 14: to this key point, Jake. Why would we want them 242 00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:26,160 Speaker 14: to remain in power for another day? Why would we contemplate? 243 00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:29,120 Speaker 14: And I don't think this is necessarily what the President 244 00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:32,240 Speaker 14: was saying, but he's talking about peace. That suggests that 245 00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:36,720 Speaker 14: there will be further conversations. The only piece worth having 246 00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:44,280 Speaker 14: will be one made possible by the unconditional surrender of 247 00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:47,720 Speaker 14: these mulas, not just their enriched uranium or whatever else 248 00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:52,320 Speaker 14: they've got left, but the reigns of power. And the 249 00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:56,280 Speaker 14: key piece of this, which I think profoundly important, is 250 00:14:57,240 --> 00:15:00,880 Speaker 14: if we continue to parlay with these guys, to have 251 00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:06,560 Speaker 14: whatever kind of negotiations with them, it conveys two things, unmistakably. One, 252 00:15:07,920 --> 00:15:11,560 Speaker 14: we actually think they can say on in power safely 253 00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:15,200 Speaker 14: that it's going to be okay, they'll promise to behave 254 00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:19,600 Speaker 14: better and all that won't happen. But secondly, we're signaling 255 00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:23,600 Speaker 14: to the people of Iran that we will betray them 256 00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:28,560 Speaker 14: once again, as their President Trump's predecessors had repeatedly done, 257 00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:34,040 Speaker 14: most egregiously Barack Obama, signaling to them that we are 258 00:15:34,120 --> 00:15:38,640 Speaker 14: intent on ensuring a free Iran, not that we're going 259 00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:41,880 Speaker 14: to choose who will lead it, that will be up 260 00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:44,800 Speaker 14: to them, but that we will help through the Israelis 261 00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:48,240 Speaker 14: create conditions under which the people of Iran can safely 262 00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:52,120 Speaker 14: liberate themselves. That is the name of the game at 263 00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:53,360 Speaker 14: this point in my estimassion. 264 00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:55,560 Speaker 13: All right, thank you Frank Kaffney. 265 00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:58,000 Speaker 12: Again, this is live coverage here on Real America's Voice 266 00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:01,200 Speaker 12: America's strike on Iran.

God bless the Middle East, 272 00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:29,360 Speaker 2: God bless Israel, and God bless America. 273 00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:30,280 Speaker 4: Thank you very much. 274 00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:35,200 Speaker 12: Welcome back to our special report live coverage here on 275 00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:38,920 Speaker 12: Real America's Voice on the US strike on Iran.

Eastern time, so less than an hour from now. 279 00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:51,600 Speaker 12: He will be joined by Joint Chiefs Chairman General Dan 280 00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:57,800 Speaker 12: Kin Folks. June sixth, nineteen forty four, I believe, of course, 281 00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:01,000 Speaker 12: the most important date of the twentieth cent If things 282 00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:03,920 Speaker 12: go the wrong way on D Day, the world is 283 00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:07,480 Speaker 12: probably cast into a darkness that it doesn't survive. June 284 00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:11,919 Speaker 12: twenty first, twenty twenty five, eighty one years later to 285 00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:15,600 Speaker 12: the same month, I think we'll also potentially go down 286 00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:18,639 Speaker 12: as one of the most important days of the twenty 287 00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:21,960 Speaker 12: first century. If things had gone wrong last night, or 288 00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:24,199 Speaker 12: if we'd had a president who didn't order this strike, 289 00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:27,119 Speaker 12: it's possible the world could have been cast into a 290 00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:30,399 Speaker 12: darkness that it didn't recover. Sorry to be so heavy 291 00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:32,439 Speaker 12: on a Sunday morning, folks, but that's the way the 292 00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:34,640 Speaker 12: news is.

I mean, 313 00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:20,119 Speaker 12: I did briefly mention the ridiculous statement by Congresswoman Alexandria 314 00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:24,360 Speaker 12: Casio Cortez calling for President Trump to be impeached over this. 315 00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:27,320 Speaker 12: I mean, here's someone who's really saving the entire Western world, which, 316 00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:29,560 Speaker 12: of course, the United States is the biggest bulwark of 317 00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:33,760 Speaker 12: I can't imagine too many other Democrats, even at least 318 00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:37,800 Speaker 12: publicly saying this, But I believe only John Fetterman is 319 00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:41,080 Speaker 12: the only elected Democrat who has come out strongly in 320 00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:42,560 Speaker 12: support of these attacks. 321 00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:45,000 Speaker 13: You're in DC, what are you hearing? What are you 322 00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:45,919 Speaker 13: seeing on the streets here? 323 00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:48,800 Speaker 12: I mean, you saw these protests yesterday at the White House, 324 00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:51,320 Speaker 12: these pathetic figures holding up the flag of Iran's And 325 00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:54,240 Speaker 12: you don't like President Trump, you don't like this policy, fine, 326 00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:57,120 Speaker 12: But to support this evil regime which kills its own 327 00:18:57,160 --> 00:19:00,959 Speaker 12: people by the thousands regularly, and this is just an 328 00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:03,360 Speaker 12: example of what we're up against. I don't mind being 329 00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:06,879 Speaker 12: up against a loyal opposition, but these people are absolutely out. 330 00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:07,399 Speaker 13: Of their minds. 331 00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:12,760 Speaker 16: I covered or I was at the twenty seventeen Trump inauguration. 332 00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:15,360 Speaker 17: That was violent protests, right. 333 00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:17,600 Speaker 16: They were burning, they burned a limousine, they were breaking 334 00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:21,200 Speaker 16: the storefronts and downtown DC. That environment's kind of left 335 00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:24,840 Speaker 16: us here. The protests this year that we're supposed to 336 00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:28,240 Speaker 16: go on during the second Trump inauguration, they were saying, Oh, 337 00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:30,440 Speaker 16: we're going to have half a million people. It turned 338 00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:33,240 Speaker 16: out to be like less than fifty thousand, and even 339 00:19:33,280 --> 00:19:38,080 Speaker 16: the permit they took out how to merge the Woman's 340 00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:42,000 Speaker 16: rally with the leftist protests together, and they still couldn't 341 00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:45,800 Speaker 16: get twenty eight thousand plus people. I think the wind 342 00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:47,600 Speaker 16: is out of their sails a little bit because the 343 00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:50,280 Speaker 16: American people spoke last year and they don't want any 344 00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:52,280 Speaker 16: more of this, and they don't want George Floyd type 345 00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:52,920 Speaker 16: stuff again. 346 00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:56,400 Speaker 17: So it's not as bad. I enjoy the buzz once 347 00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:57,160 Speaker 17: again in DC. 348 00:19:57,320 --> 00:19:59,120 Speaker 16: I mean, I've been coming here since I seven years 349 00:19:59,119 --> 00:20:03,840 Speaker 16: old and a long long time ago, and I've seen 350 00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:08,600 Speaker 16: the waves of crime and the gentrification. It's not that bad. 351 00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:12,119 Speaker 16: In the twenty twenty one inauguration of Biden, that was 352 00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:15,120 Speaker 16: a top one oh one Constitution Avenue with Amanda head 353 00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:18,639 Speaker 16: covering that dystopian inauguration, the four thousand troops sleeping on 354 00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:20,600 Speaker 16: the lawn of the Capitol, one hundred. 355 00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:21,040 Speaker 17: Two hunred people. 356 00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:22,720 Speaker 16: There was more media on top of the building than 357 00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:24,520 Speaker 16: they were at the actual inauguration. 358 00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:27,320 Speaker 17: They put a giant fence around it because of J six. 359 00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:29,399 Speaker 16: You know, they were trying to create like some atmosphere 360 00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:31,880 Speaker 16: that there was a threat. Mayor Bowser shut down all 361 00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:35,159 Speaker 16: the businesses in DC. It was a ghost town. The 362 00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:38,080 Speaker 16: vibe is back. Trump brought that back. It's like the 363 00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:40,520 Speaker 16: Wildwood rally last night. Not to get off topic, but 364 00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:43,560 Speaker 16: you know, their summer season was hurting. People are hurting, 365 00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:46,760 Speaker 16: Inflation was killing them, and the hotels are empty. And Wildwood, 366 00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:50,480 Speaker 16: just north of Cape Maye, New Jersey, Trump got every 367 00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:54,560 Speaker 16: single hotel room booked because of his rally. You know, 368 00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:57,360 Speaker 16: he's a positive energy and people want to be part 369 00:20:57,359 --> 00:20:58,760 Speaker 16: of it. And I was at Old at but Grill 370 00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:02,200 Speaker 16: the other night. There often for many, many years, there's 371 00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:04,359 Speaker 16: a buzz again. There's Maga people. 372 00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:06,000 Speaker 17: It's okay to wear a Maga hat. 373 00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:09,520 Speaker 16: There aren't Pride flags every ten feet, so it's a 374 00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:12,159 Speaker 16: it's a little better. It's a little better, and I 375 00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:14,760 Speaker 16: think that it's a place where I want to be. 376 00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:18,320 Speaker 17: I think where America wants to be a little bit 377 00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:18,800 Speaker 17: more so. 378 00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:21,479 Speaker 16: The protesters, I did cover the New York City protests 379 00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:24,320 Speaker 16: last week just to close. You know, they were violent. 380 00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:26,240 Speaker 16: The police were able to take their gloves off. I 381 00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:29,240 Speaker 16: got incredible footage of the clubs like beating down protesters 382 00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:32,240 Speaker 16: when they deserved it and hauling them them away. 383 00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:35,359 Speaker 17: And the cops were the diverse crowd. 384 00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:37,399 Speaker 16: The cops are the blacks and the Hispanics and the 385 00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:39,879 Speaker 16: Asians and the women. And it was the protesters. They 386 00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:42,120 Speaker 16: had like five Hispanics there and the rest were white 387 00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:46,640 Speaker 16: girls and white guys yelling from their entitled ivory towers. 388 00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:50,399 Speaker 16: And you know, so I think the side is on 389 00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:53,560 Speaker 16: the good people of America these days. I am concerned 390 00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:57,080 Speaker 16: about protests and sleeper cells and other stuff as well. 391 00:21:57,080 --> 00:21:59,480 Speaker 13: Though, Yeah, thank you. 392 00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:03,560 Speaker 12: Let's bring Frank Gaffney here as well. Frank, you know, 393 00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:05,679 Speaker 12: this is an interesting point. We talked to you, and 394 00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:08,040 Speaker 12: I talked about the threats to the United States, the 395 00:22:08,080 --> 00:22:11,879 Speaker 12: retaliations that could happen, and that is always always something 396 00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:12,800 Speaker 12: that we don't ignore. 397 00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:13,840 Speaker 13: We must discuss that. 398 00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:16,040 Speaker 12: Although I think you would agree with me, the threat 399 00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:19,400 Speaker 12: to our homeland from these Iranian back terror celles has 400 00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:21,960 Speaker 12: been true for a very very long time. I don't 401 00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:23,800 Speaker 12: know what rock you've been hiding under if you don't 402 00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:26,959 Speaker 12: understand that we have been attacked and we have been 403 00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:28,840 Speaker 12: threatened for a long time by these Rainians. But Frank, 404 00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:30,720 Speaker 12: I want to talk to you about the political leadership 405 00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:33,159 Speaker 12: here and the Democrat political leadership. I don't know if 406 00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:36,240 Speaker 12: you agree with me about comparing June twenty first, twenty 407 00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:40,359 Speaker 12: twenty five, potentially to June sixth, nineteen forty four. But 408 00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:43,320 Speaker 12: to me is this because to me, this feels like 409 00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:46,680 Speaker 12: the Democrats last chance. If there aren't a if there 410 00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:50,320 Speaker 12: isn't a critical mass of Democrat leaders who get behind 411 00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:54,680 Speaker 12: this effort against Iran right now support President Trump's actions, 412 00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:57,200 Speaker 12: I don't know if this party can ever be taken 413 00:22:57,280 --> 00:22:58,840 Speaker 12: seriously by anyone ever. 414 00:22:58,960 --> 00:22:59,960 Speaker 13: Again, we are in. 415 00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:03,680 Speaker 12: The midst of a conflict with a murderous regime that 416 00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:06,760 Speaker 12: was looking to destroy all of Western civilization. If they 417 00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:09,680 Speaker 12: can't stand up and act like leaders and responsible leaders 418 00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:14,160 Speaker 12: instead of spoiled protesting children now Rank Afney, when will 419 00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:14,879 Speaker 12: that ever happen? 420 00:23:16,840 --> 00:23:17,080 Speaker 2: Ash? 421 00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:20,240 Speaker 14: This is such an important point, Jake, May I just 422 00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:24,280 Speaker 14: pick up on something that we just heard from David 423 00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:26,480 Speaker 14: that I think sets up the answer to your question. 424 00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:30,320 Speaker 14: He talked about and I think it was tongue in 425 00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:37,000 Speaker 14: cheek hating to miss the globalize the Intifada rally up 426 00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:42,480 Speaker 14: in the train station in New York. That's one manifestation 427 00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:46,080 Speaker 14: of what we're up against. That is what I call 428 00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:52,080 Speaker 14: Sharia supremacism at work. And part of the problem is 429 00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:58,480 Speaker 14: that those sleeper cells, those you know, front groups of Iran, 430 00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:04,880 Speaker 14: those nation teams, and you're right to some degree, these 431 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:06,959 Speaker 14: guys have been here for a long time. They've been 432 00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:10,959 Speaker 14: casing target sets. I had a fascinating conversation with our 433 00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:15,880 Speaker 14: friend Sam Fattis on our program Securing America this weekend, 434 00:24:16,560 --> 00:24:20,240 Speaker 14: and he points out that the thing about Hesbelah, for example, 435 00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:24,879 Speaker 14: is they don't wait to be given a mission and 436 00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:27,639 Speaker 14: then figure out what to do about it. They prepare 437 00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:31,840 Speaker 14: the mission packages for many years in events in some 438 00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:35,639 Speaker 14: cases to execute on demand. This brings me back to 439 00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:40,359 Speaker 14: that point. We must stop the command from coming now. 440 00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:44,919 Speaker 14: But the larger question is if we are in fact 441 00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:49,679 Speaker 14: serious about dealing with this threat. And to your question 442 00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:54,560 Speaker 14: about the Democratic Party, it has largely thrown in with 443 00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:58,679 Speaker 14: these Muslim brotherhood front groups for example, and to some 444 00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:03,679 Speaker 14: extent with the others. The Sharia supremacist types in this country, 445 00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:07,040 Speaker 14: some of whom are yes, tied to Iran, but they've 446 00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:12,199 Speaker 14: also been tied into the Communist Party, the China backed 447 00:25:13,040 --> 00:25:16,879 Speaker 14: Communist Party, the Democratic Socialists, and so on. So to 448 00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:22,159 Speaker 14: go back to your question of D Day compared to now, 449 00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:29,159 Speaker 14: you know, Democrats in America, like Republicans in America, I 450 00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:32,000 Speaker 14: think we're loath to get into World War Two. But 451 00:25:32,119 --> 00:25:35,280 Speaker 14: once we were in it, because we were attacked by 452 00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:39,320 Speaker 14: the Japanese and then Hitler declared war on us as well, 453 00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:42,879 Speaker 14: Democrats were all in as much as were Republicans. We 454 00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:46,679 Speaker 14: had a unified country that fought that war to a 455 00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:52,440 Speaker 14: victory rooted on the principle of unconditional surrender by both 456 00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:58,199 Speaker 14: the Nazis and the imperial Japanese. And today the Democratic leadership, 457 00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:04,440 Speaker 14: such as it is, as I'm afraid, really fractured the party. 458 00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:08,560 Speaker 14: I'm an old Scoop Jackson Democrat myself, his like is 459 00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:12,879 Speaker 14: not in the party any longer, Joe Lieberman. They're not 460 00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:16,439 Speaker 14: there because they're not welcome. They're now Republicans. Some of 461 00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:19,679 Speaker 14: them are maga as am I. But the main point 462 00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:23,600 Speaker 14: is where we find this country is we're going to 463 00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:27,199 Speaker 14: have to deal as an oath of office that I 464 00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:31,199 Speaker 14: took on many occasions and other you probably have to 465 00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:34,800 Speaker 14: to support and defend our constitution against all enemies, foreign 466 00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:39,040 Speaker 14: and domestic. Is going to require us to brace up 467 00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:43,000 Speaker 14: and realize that some of those enemies, domestic, the red 468 00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:47,679 Speaker 14: green axis, if you will, the communists read the is 469 00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:52,719 Speaker 14: limus green are here. They are a mortal threat, and 470 00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:58,679 Speaker 14: they are getting material support from people who are political 471 00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:03,800 Speaker 14: leaders and influential ones in some cases, and that must end. 472 00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:06,440 Speaker 14: It must end if we are to survive as a nation. 473 00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:08,320 Speaker 18: Again. 474 00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:10,160 Speaker 12: If you are just joining us, you are watching Real 475 00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:14,439 Speaker 12: America's Voice, special coverage, special live coverage this Sunday morning 476 00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:18,840 Speaker 12: of America's strike on Iran, and we are going up 477 00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:22,400 Speaker 12: to the news conference, live news conference at the Pentagon 478 00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:26,560 Speaker 12: with Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth and Joint Chiefs Chairman 479 00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:29,760 Speaker 12: General Dan Kine, which we expect to begin right at 480 00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:32,480 Speaker 12: eight a m.

I assume these are some certain movements 510 00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:11,880 Speaker 12: and also some watching of terror groups across this country 511 00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:12,360 Speaker 12: and others. 512 00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:14,000 Speaker 6: Yes, and I'm. 513 00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:16,360 Speaker 17: Looking forward to hearing Raisin Kine. 514 00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:18,400 Speaker 16: You know, Trump always talked about him on the campaign 515 00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:20,640 Speaker 16: trail over the years, and he got a big rise 516 00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:23,320 Speaker 16: out of the crowd that he helped smash ices for US. 517 00:29:23,960 --> 00:29:26,680 Speaker 16: You know, at least thirty more missiles were launched overnight 518 00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:29,760 Speaker 16: from Iran into Israel, and up to eighty six people 519 00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:33,120 Speaker 16: were injured, so they didn't get the message right. Fresh 520 00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:37,800 Speaker 16: Israeli strikes targeted Iranian missile launchers. There's word that they've 521 00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:41,520 Speaker 16: destroyed over half of the launchers inside of Iran already, 522 00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:45,800 Speaker 16: and several hours ago Israel military hit other targets, including 523 00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:47,600 Speaker 16: eight additional launchers. 524 00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:49,000 Speaker 17: Two F five fighter jets. 525 00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:52,920 Speaker 16: Six of those launchers were set with missiles to launch 526 00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:55,880 Speaker 16: into Israel, and I think they were able to shoot 527 00:29:55,920 --> 00:29:57,160 Speaker 16: down ten got. 528 00:29:56,920 --> 00:29:58,120 Speaker 17: Through into Israel. 529 00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:03,640 Speaker 16: Of those, thirty or so also exile Iranian Prince Reza Pavlabi, 530 00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:06,720 Speaker 16: who's the son of the Shah, calling for the Islamic 531 00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:11,240 Speaker 16: leadership to step down in for an uprising, calling them 532 00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:15,719 Speaker 16: a crumbling terrorist regime. That's interesting, but there's no visible 533 00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:18,680 Speaker 16: signs of uprising or anything going on on the ground. 534 00:30:18,760 --> 00:30:20,720 Speaker 16: They've shut down the internet. I think that's going to 535 00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:23,719 Speaker 16: take a long time to fester. And since the beginning 536 00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:28,720 Speaker 16: of Rising Lion Operation Rising Lion from Israel, over five 537 00:30:28,800 --> 00:30:31,880 Speaker 16: hundred UAVs launched from i Ran towards the state of 538 00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:33,200 Speaker 16: Israel have been intercepted. 539 00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:35,520 Speaker 17: They i think intercepted. 540 00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:39,520 Speaker 16: Another twenty twenty and thirty last night as well. And 541 00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:43,520 Speaker 16: then there was strikes on Saturday by twenty Israeli Air 542 00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:46,719 Speaker 16: Force jets against dozens of military targets and as you know, 543 00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:49,600 Speaker 16: they softened up the targets at the Tans and Isfaran 544 00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:55,760 Speaker 16: and they hit it constantly over several days, softened it up, 545 00:30:56,680 --> 00:31:00,520 Speaker 16: destroying centrifugeres, cutting off the power to the Tans. I 546 00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:03,960 Speaker 16: believe there was concerns about radiation leaking, but the IAEA 547 00:31:04,080 --> 00:31:07,560 Speaker 16: says that that's contained and they don't see any radiation 548 00:31:07,720 --> 00:31:10,360 Speaker 16: coming from Florida because you know, the Gulf States are 549 00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:14,240 Speaker 16: concerned about the environment and the radiation. Sixty million people 550 00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:17,080 Speaker 16: in that region get their water from desalinization plants in 551 00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:17,960 Speaker 16: the Persian Gulf. 552 00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:19,880 Speaker 17: It's a very serious issue. 553 00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:24,120 Speaker 16: If there's an economic and environmental disaster over there in 554 00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:27,440 Speaker 16: the Straits of Hormuz and other and the UK is 555 00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:30,280 Speaker 16: urging I ran to come back to the negotiating table. 556 00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:35,800 Speaker 16: The IAEA did confirm there were no levels of radiation 557 00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:39,760 Speaker 16: that were significant around and overnight or yesterday it might 558 00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:44,120 Speaker 16: have been. Three bodies of three more hostages killed by 559 00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:49,600 Speaker 16: Hamas were found and they were recovered in a joint 560 00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:53,960 Speaker 16: IDF and ISA military operation. After being held hostage for 561 00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:56,480 Speaker 16: six hundred and twenty five days, they got the bodies back. 562 00:31:57,400 --> 00:32:02,440 Speaker 16: UN Secretary General Antoniogutaras said that you know, there's a 563 00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:05,440 Speaker 16: ramification of years from this to come. But as usual, 564 00:32:05,560 --> 00:32:09,240 Speaker 16: the UN didn't take any action against Iran. European countries 565 00:32:09,240 --> 00:32:11,680 Speaker 16: weren't able to do anything to stop this, and I 566 00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:14,560 Speaker 16: just wanted to close with a global markets a bracing 567 00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:18,040 Speaker 16: for impact. Oil remained relatively stable. I know this is 568 00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:21,600 Speaker 16: your lane Jake by seventy three dollars a barrow today, 569 00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:23,640 Speaker 16: but it's still up twenty five percent from the lows, 570 00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:26,080 Speaker 16: and Brent Krude is up to seventy seven to seventy 571 00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:29,040 Speaker 16: hundred dollars a barrow. They're expecting it to climb, which 572 00:32:29,040 --> 00:32:31,600 Speaker 16: is up twenty percent for them, but they're expecting it 573 00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:34,160 Speaker 16: to climb up to one hundred and thirty dollars a barrow, 574 00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:38,960 Speaker 16: which would be devastating the Gulf States, of course, concerned 575 00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:42,320 Speaker 16: about any closures or interruptions in the Straits of Horror. 576 00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:45,880 Speaker 12: Moves, Yeah, of course, if there is a closure in 577 00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:48,160 Speaker 12: the Strait of Horror Moves, one of the biggest losers 578 00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:51,120 Speaker 12: will be China, and there may be Chinese pressure. Well, 579 00:32:51,120 --> 00:32:53,800 Speaker 12: we know there's Chinese pressure on the Irani regime not 580 00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:56,680 Speaker 12: to do that. And you're absolutely right to talk about 581 00:32:56,720 --> 00:32:59,960 Speaker 12: the seventy three dollars barrel level in the United States 582 00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:02,520 Speaker 12: recrude oil. But I want to remind our viewers that 583 00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:06,440 Speaker 12: on October sixth, twenty twenty three, US crude oil was 584 00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:09,000 Speaker 12: at the ninety dollars a barrel level, So we are 585 00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:12,720 Speaker 12: still significantly lower than we were even before October seventh. 586 00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:15,200 Speaker 12: That doesn't mean I'm going to cheer a few more 587 00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:19,080 Speaker 12: cents per gallon at my gas station, but honestly, we 588 00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:20,920 Speaker 12: got a long way to go before we even feel 589 00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:23,320 Speaker 12: the pain that we did less than two years ago. 590 00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:25,720 Speaker 12: Frank Gaffney, I want to ask you, getting back to 591 00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:28,120 Speaker 12: the Chinese aspect of this, getting back to the Russian 592 00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:31,240 Speaker 12: aspect of this feels to me, Frank, these are two 593 00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:32,640 Speaker 12: dogs that are not barking. 594 00:33:33,080 --> 00:33:35,880 Speaker 13: I'm not hearing such righteous indignation. 595 00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:38,920 Speaker 12: We've seen some statements, but I don't get the feeling 596 00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:41,320 Speaker 12: that China and Russia are banging the table about what's 597 00:33:41,320 --> 00:33:43,400 Speaker 12: going on. In fact, they may be licking their wounds 598 00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:45,360 Speaker 12: a little bit because I think they backed the loser. 599 00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:49,760 Speaker 14: I think you're absolutely right, Jack, and it may change, 600 00:33:50,160 --> 00:33:56,360 Speaker 14: but most of the world operates with a fairly highly 601 00:33:56,440 --> 00:34:05,320 Speaker 14: attuned sense of who's powerful and who's not, and whether 602 00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:09,840 Speaker 14: the powerful have the will to use their power. I 603 00:34:09,840 --> 00:34:13,359 Speaker 14: would argue there's no greater contempt in the world, and 604 00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:17,240 Speaker 14: you saw it from the way the Iranians conducted themselves 605 00:34:17,320 --> 00:34:22,719 Speaker 14: with the Biden team particularly, and the Obama team before them, 606 00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:28,440 Speaker 14: when they saw a powerful nation essentially groveling, you know, 607 00:34:28,719 --> 00:34:33,080 Speaker 14: they treated us with the utmost contempt and moved inexorably 608 00:34:33,120 --> 00:34:36,800 Speaker 14: forward with their nuclear weapons program. But to your question, 609 00:34:37,400 --> 00:34:39,960 Speaker 14: I think that what you're seeing out of China and 610 00:34:40,040 --> 00:34:46,879 Speaker 14: Russia is a recognition that Donald Trump, as during his 611 00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:51,960 Speaker 14: first presidency, is a force to be reckoned with and 612 00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:57,520 Speaker 14: peace through strength, which he is not only you know, 613 00:34:58,239 --> 00:35:02,839 Speaker 14: enunciated is his policy in both terms, but he's put 614 00:35:02,840 --> 00:35:05,920 Speaker 14: it into practice just in the past twenty four hours. 615 00:35:06,719 --> 00:35:09,880 Speaker 14: Is going to have I think a very salutary effect 616 00:35:10,200 --> 00:35:12,600 Speaker 14: on both of these guys. And you know, there are 617 00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:15,200 Speaker 14: some who say, and you know, frankly, we'll see the 618 00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:19,440 Speaker 14: juries out that his movement of assets like the Nimitz 619 00:35:19,520 --> 00:35:23,880 Speaker 14: Carrier strike Group from the Far East to the Middle 620 00:35:23,880 --> 00:35:28,080 Speaker 14: East has now you know, created new opportunities for the 621 00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:32,000 Speaker 14: Chinese to act aggressively. That may well be, I think 622 00:35:32,080 --> 00:35:36,640 Speaker 14: they are poised to be more aggressive towards Taiwan and 623 00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:40,560 Speaker 14: possibly towards US. But the truth of the matter is 624 00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:45,000 Speaker 14: I think this has affected their calculation and in a 625 00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:48,680 Speaker 14: positive way for US and for Taiwan, and for Japan 626 00:35:49,080 --> 00:35:52,600 Speaker 14: and for our friends and allies throughout the Pacific as well. 627 00:35:53,680 --> 00:35:57,319 Speaker 12: Yeah, clarity is always the most important thing when it 628 00:35:57,360 --> 00:35:59,560 Speaker 12: comes to foreign policy, when it comes to the markets, 629 00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:02,359 Speaker 12: and when it comes to foreign policy, and that is 630 00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:07,279 Speaker 12: incredibly important. I want to talk to David a little 631 00:36:07,280 --> 00:36:10,280 Speaker 12: bit about what you expect. Let's start setting the stage 632 00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:12,600 Speaker 12: now for this important news conference from Pete hegg Seth, 633 00:36:12,680 --> 00:36:16,239 Speaker 12: our Secretary of Defense and Dan Kin General Dan Kin, 634 00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:17,760 Speaker 12: our Joint Chiefs Chairman. 635 00:36:18,680 --> 00:36:20,319 Speaker 13: What would you like to hear from them? 636 00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:21,799 Speaker 12: I mean, I'm sure we'd all like to hear some 637 00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:25,880 Speaker 12: of the tactical details, because, let's face it, this is 638 00:36:25,960 --> 00:36:26,680 Speaker 12: cool stuff. 639 00:36:27,080 --> 00:36:29,160 Speaker 13: I'm not talking about the death or destruction. 640 00:36:29,239 --> 00:36:32,360 Speaker 12: I'm just talking about the incredible technology that went into 641 00:36:32,840 --> 00:36:35,359 Speaker 12: this attack. You see the stealth bomber, the B two 642 00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:37,080 Speaker 12: stealth bomber. It is a thing to behold. For those 643 00:36:37,120 --> 00:36:39,359 Speaker 12: of you who've been to Super Bowl games or other 644 00:36:39,440 --> 00:36:41,520 Speaker 12: NFL games when they do those fly overs. I guess 645 00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:43,279 Speaker 12: they do them at baseball games too, although I've not 646 00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:46,640 Speaker 12: seen that. It's a cool thing to behold, and you 647 00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:49,600 Speaker 12: have to be really dead inside not to be impressed 648 00:36:49,880 --> 00:36:51,520 Speaker 12: by the technology of it. And I see we have 649 00:36:51,600 --> 00:36:55,279 Speaker 12: some animation of it also. But David, what would you 650 00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:58,560 Speaker 12: like to hear from Secretary of heg Seth in General Kine. 651 00:36:59,120 --> 00:37:00,920 Speaker 12: You know, if you had a chance to ask them questions, 652 00:37:00,920 --> 00:37:03,279 Speaker 12: what would your feeling? What would you want to make 653 00:37:03,320 --> 00:37:04,160 Speaker 12: your first questions be? 654 00:37:05,880 --> 00:37:08,120 Speaker 17: I want to know the logistics on how they put 655 00:37:08,120 --> 00:37:08,520 Speaker 17: it together. 656 00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:10,880 Speaker 16: I also want to know what measures they've taken outside 657 00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:14,040 Speaker 16: of evacuating the bases in Kada. 658 00:37:13,840 --> 00:37:17,000 Speaker 17: And other aircraft to protect US troops abroad. 659 00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:19,520 Speaker 19: But these B. 660 00:37:19,560 --> 00:37:25,359 Speaker 16: Twos are just extraordinary, you know, weapons aircraft that just incredible. 661 00:37:25,840 --> 00:37:28,279 Speaker 16: I'd like to see some clarification because I've heard people 662 00:37:28,320 --> 00:37:31,080 Speaker 16: say B fifty twos are involved and the number of missiles. 663 00:37:31,360 --> 00:37:33,879 Speaker 16: My latest info is that the B twos took off 664 00:37:33,880 --> 00:37:36,720 Speaker 16: from white Men. They can travel up to like thirty 665 00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:39,160 Speaker 16: thirty six hours. I think when in flight we're fueling, 666 00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:42,920 Speaker 16: they have an incredible range. And if the B twos 667 00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:46,480 Speaker 16: were in fact the only aircraft up there that were bombers, 668 00:37:47,120 --> 00:37:50,200 Speaker 16: how many were actually that hit Florida. I understand there 669 00:37:50,280 --> 00:37:54,080 Speaker 16: was twelve. And you know, these bombs are thirty pounds, 670 00:37:54,080 --> 00:37:55,920 Speaker 16: but most of that is mass, and they go in, 671 00:37:56,000 --> 00:37:58,880 Speaker 16: they penetrate, They can penetrate their sixty feet of concrete 672 00:37:58,920 --> 00:38:01,080 Speaker 16: and they have a twenty five hundred pound warhead. I 673 00:38:01,120 --> 00:38:05,400 Speaker 16: believe once it gets down to the correct level to explode. 674 00:38:05,600 --> 00:38:10,239 Speaker 16: It's a very fascinating and precision operations. I'd also like 675 00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:13,319 Speaker 16: to know because we were reporting yesterday throughout the day 676 00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:19,440 Speaker 16: that the Israelis were softening up targets across these various 677 00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:22,800 Speaker 16: nuclear sites for a couple of days and cutting power 678 00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:28,000 Speaker 16: off at the I think it was Thentance facility, destroying 679 00:38:28,040 --> 00:38:29,440 Speaker 16: thousands of centrifuges. 680 00:38:29,480 --> 00:38:31,200 Speaker 17: Supposedly when the power was cut. 681 00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:34,560 Speaker 16: There were concerns there were levels of radiation detected, as 682 00:38:34,560 --> 00:38:35,880 Speaker 16: I said earlier. 683 00:38:36,120 --> 00:38:37,520 Speaker 17: But I think that's contained. 684 00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:40,200 Speaker 16: I'd like to know the logistics of, you know, who 685 00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:43,160 Speaker 16: softened up the targets. Did the US do any of 686 00:38:43,200 --> 00:38:45,120 Speaker 16: that as well, or did we just come in with 687 00:38:45,280 --> 00:38:47,919 Speaker 16: our I don't know if we had F twenty twos 688 00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:49,759 Speaker 16: or F thirty fives escorting us in. 689 00:38:50,280 --> 00:38:51,800 Speaker 17: I believe they were F twenty twos. 690 00:38:52,680 --> 00:38:55,200 Speaker 16: I want the details because we need that clarified, and 691 00:38:55,280 --> 00:38:58,319 Speaker 16: I think the American people are fascinated by this and 692 00:38:58,760 --> 00:39:01,800 Speaker 16: to minimize the law of life, not only US troops 693 00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:04,640 Speaker 16: but people on the ground in Iran as well. These 694 00:39:04,640 --> 00:39:07,919 Speaker 16: were not attacks on civilian targets as opposed to indiscriminated 695 00:39:07,920 --> 00:39:12,560 Speaker 16: bombings and missile attacks on un guided munitions from Iran 696 00:39:12,840 --> 00:39:13,520 Speaker 16: to Israel. 697 00:39:13,960 --> 00:39:15,560 Speaker 17: I'd like to know that as well. 698 00:39:16,600 --> 00:39:18,680 Speaker 12: Yeah, well, we're about fifteen minutes away from that. You 699 00:39:18,719 --> 00:39:22,160 Speaker 12: are watching live special coverage here on Real America's Voice 700 00:39:22,239 --> 00:39:24,680 Speaker 12: of the US strike on Iran and everything that comes 701 00:39:24,719 --> 00:39:25,239 Speaker 12: after it. 702 00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:27,560 Speaker 13: I'm Jake Novak, will be right back as we await 703 00:39:27,680 --> 00:39:28,080 Speaker 13: that news. 704 00:39:28,080 --> 00:39:41,320 Speaker 2: Comments carried out massive precision strikes on the three key 705 00:39:41,680 --> 00:39:47,359 Speaker 2: nuclear facilities in the Iranian regime. God bless the Middle East, 706 00:39:47,560 --> 00:39:50,680 Speaker 2: God bless Israel, and God bless America. 707 00:39:50,719 --> 00:39:51,600 Speaker 4: Thank you very much. 708 00:39:53,680 --> 00:39:56,080 Speaker 12: Welcome back to our live special coverage here on Real 709 00:39:56,120 --> 00:39:58,440 Speaker 12: America's Voice on the US strike on Iran. You were 710 00:39:58,440 --> 00:40:01,319 Speaker 12: looking at a live shot of the briefing room at 711 00:40:01,320 --> 00:40:04,000 Speaker 12: the Pentagon, and you see two podiums in front of you. 712 00:40:04,239 --> 00:40:06,200 Speaker 12: One of them will be taken by our Secretary of 713 00:40:06,200 --> 00:40:09,160 Speaker 12: Defense Pete Hegseth. The other will be taken by Joint 714 00:40:09,239 --> 00:40:11,120 Speaker 12: Chiefs Chairman General Dan Kine. 715 00:40:11,480 --> 00:40:13,439 Speaker 13: As they will be giving a news conference at eight 716 00:40:13,480 --> 00:40:13,719 Speaker 13: a m. 717 00:40:14,200 --> 00:40:16,760 Speaker 12: Eastern time, And judging by the way that the press 718 00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:18,680 Speaker 12: is already sitting down and getting ready, I think that 719 00:40:18,719 --> 00:40:21,320 Speaker 12: sucker is going to go on right as scheduled. Frank 720 00:40:21,360 --> 00:40:23,880 Speaker 12: Gaffney is joining us, so is David Zier. Frank I 721 00:40:23,920 --> 00:40:26,040 Speaker 12: asked David a moment ago what he would ask if 722 00:40:26,040 --> 00:40:27,800 Speaker 12: he were in that news conference getting a chance to 723 00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:30,799 Speaker 12: ask a question. Let me let me let you take 724 00:40:30,800 --> 00:40:32,719 Speaker 12: a crack of that. Also, what would you ask if 725 00:40:32,719 --> 00:40:34,080 Speaker 12: you had a chance to ask a question? 726 00:40:35,880 --> 00:40:39,080 Speaker 14: Well, obviously, I think we're all very anxious to get 727 00:40:39,080 --> 00:40:43,799 Speaker 14: the battle damage assessment, Jake, so that presumably will be 728 00:40:43,840 --> 00:40:46,840 Speaker 14: top of the reporter's minds and would be of mine 729 00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:50,640 Speaker 14: as well. Uh, you know, I think we do want 730 00:40:50,800 --> 00:40:56,359 Speaker 14: them to exercise care about disclosing too much about, you know, 731 00:40:57,120 --> 00:41:00,200 Speaker 14: the kind of tactics and for that matter, and the 732 00:41:00,239 --> 00:41:05,280 Speaker 14: capabilities that we use, simply because, as the President has signaled, 733 00:41:06,239 --> 00:41:09,160 Speaker 14: we may need them again, not only in Iran obviously, 734 00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:15,759 Speaker 14: but quite possibly elsewhere. Having said that about you know, 735 00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:18,480 Speaker 14: not wanting too much of the hand to be shown, 736 00:41:19,320 --> 00:41:22,560 Speaker 14: it might be interesting to have some sense, at least 737 00:41:22,600 --> 00:41:26,440 Speaker 14: in a sort of generic way, what are considered to 738 00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:30,200 Speaker 14: be options for further strikes. But I think the single 739 00:41:30,239 --> 00:41:35,839 Speaker 14: most important question to me is does Israel have the capability? 740 00:41:35,880 --> 00:41:39,040 Speaker 14: Is it assessed to have the capability to finish the 741 00:41:39,160 --> 00:41:44,120 Speaker 14: job vis a the the Iranian leadership, that is to say, 742 00:41:45,520 --> 00:41:50,759 Speaker 14: removing the last of them, the Iotola Hamoni himself and 743 00:41:51,080 --> 00:41:54,799 Speaker 14: his you know, senior supporters who haven't been struck so far, 744 00:41:55,520 --> 00:41:59,759 Speaker 14: and as importantly as whether they can do they have 745 00:41:59,760 --> 00:42:02,520 Speaker 14: a attitude to do so. Is that something that is 746 00:42:02,600 --> 00:42:05,360 Speaker 14: now clearly on the table, especially, as I said at 747 00:42:05,400 --> 00:42:08,720 Speaker 14: the very top of the show, Jake, because we're sitting 748 00:42:08,800 --> 00:42:12,680 Speaker 14: here and we'll be talking, i'm sure with you the 749 00:42:12,719 --> 00:42:20,320 Speaker 14: Secretary and raising Kine about the threat that now exists 750 00:42:20,560 --> 00:42:24,680 Speaker 14: to our personnel and the Gulf, to Israel, and to 751 00:42:24,960 --> 00:42:29,040 Speaker 14: us here at home most especially, we need to know 752 00:42:29,280 --> 00:42:32,399 Speaker 14: that that regime that is in a position and for 753 00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:37,759 Speaker 14: all present purposes we can assume, is saying to those 754 00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:42,759 Speaker 14: who are capable of attacking our target sets, go for it. 755 00:42:43,320 --> 00:42:45,600 Speaker 14: Are they going to be put out of business? Or 756 00:42:45,640 --> 00:42:47,759 Speaker 14: are we going to in the hope of getting some 757 00:42:47,880 --> 00:42:52,120 Speaker 14: kind of further deal with them, tell the Israelis, no, 758 00:42:52,760 --> 00:42:55,160 Speaker 14: don't go after them. I pray that's not going to 759 00:42:55,200 --> 00:42:56,920 Speaker 14: be the case. I think it would be a terrible 760 00:42:57,000 --> 00:43:01,799 Speaker 14: mistake and possibly squander the deciple victory that is now 761 00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:06,279 Speaker 14: in prospect for Israel for us as well. 762 00:43:06,960 --> 00:43:10,040 Speaker 12: David Zeir you were I think that you can help 763 00:43:10,120 --> 00:43:12,640 Speaker 12: us with this, because look, of course the United States 764 00:43:12,680 --> 00:43:16,280 Speaker 12: now has rank just said faces some new threats from Iran. 765 00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:18,480 Speaker 13: But folks, if you think this. 766 00:43:18,600 --> 00:43:22,200 Speaker 12: Just started, if the United States has started something and 767 00:43:22,239 --> 00:43:25,080 Speaker 12: now there's going to be some kind of reverberation from that, 768 00:43:25,840 --> 00:43:28,279 Speaker 12: you really are coming to this party extremely late. 769 00:43:28,560 --> 00:43:28,840 Speaker 13: David. 770 00:43:28,880 --> 00:43:33,160 Speaker 12: Let's talk about some of the terocell activity guided and 771 00:43:33,200 --> 00:43:34,720 Speaker 12: funded by Iran for years. 772 00:43:34,920 --> 00:43:37,120 Speaker 13: This has been going on for a long time, hasn't it. 773 00:43:38,280 --> 00:43:41,080 Speaker 16: Yeah, you can go back a long time. I've been 774 00:43:41,120 --> 00:43:43,520 Speaker 16: following this and I'm about twelve years old. You know, 775 00:43:43,560 --> 00:43:47,680 Speaker 16: with the hasbal Sheite oriented attacks, the two hundred and 776 00:43:47,760 --> 00:43:50,759 Speaker 16: forty one Marines killed in Lebanon, the two bombings of 777 00:43:50,800 --> 00:43:55,440 Speaker 16: our Israeli embassies, the killing of CIA station Chief Jim Buckley, 778 00:43:55,680 --> 00:43:59,600 Speaker 16: the hanging of Colonel Higgins, these incredible attacks, and the 779 00:43:59,719 --> 00:44:03,280 Speaker 16: Tea Wa hijackings, dumping the body of a US Navy 780 00:44:03,320 --> 00:44:08,520 Speaker 16: seal on the tarmac and Beirut, Lebanon, the Senior Center 781 00:44:08,600 --> 00:44:12,320 Speaker 16: attacks in Argentina killing eighty or ninety people, an attack 782 00:44:12,360 --> 00:44:16,680 Speaker 16: on Jews in Argentina, and the Kobar Towers. We had 783 00:44:16,719 --> 00:44:20,400 Speaker 16: twenty five US soldiers killed between Kobar Towers and the 784 00:44:20,480 --> 00:44:24,120 Speaker 16: attack a year before in nineteen ninety five. And I 785 00:44:24,160 --> 00:44:26,319 Speaker 16: know a lot of our audience has parted ways with 786 00:44:26,600 --> 00:44:29,840 Speaker 16: George Bush, with the second Bush. But you know, he 787 00:44:30,080 --> 00:44:33,000 Speaker 16: promised the families of Kobar Towers when Obama left that 788 00:44:33,040 --> 00:44:35,680 Speaker 16: he would prosecute them, and he did. And on the 789 00:44:35,719 --> 00:44:38,120 Speaker 16: first day of first few days in office, he called 790 00:44:38,160 --> 00:44:41,400 Speaker 16: in the families of the Kobar Towers and you know, 791 00:44:41,520 --> 00:44:47,040 Speaker 16: started making indictments and arrests and capturing Iranian assets. So 792 00:44:47,200 --> 00:44:49,799 Speaker 16: it gets worse, you know, because on top of all 793 00:44:49,800 --> 00:44:53,360 Speaker 16: these incredible hundreds of attacks, thousands of attacks around the world. 794 00:44:53,920 --> 00:44:56,480 Speaker 16: I believe there were six sleeper cells just in the 795 00:44:56,560 --> 00:44:59,640 Speaker 16: UK broken up in the last year or two. And 796 00:45:00,160 --> 00:45:05,640 Speaker 16: we also had an assassination plot of Trump. Faraj SHAKEI 797 00:45:05,760 --> 00:45:09,440 Speaker 16: was plotting the assassination of Trump and the charges. You know, 798 00:45:09,480 --> 00:45:12,960 Speaker 16: he was instructed by an Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps official, 799 00:45:13,000 --> 00:45:16,000 Speaker 16: and that's who runs Iran. They owned fifty percent of 800 00:45:16,040 --> 00:45:20,000 Speaker 16: the oil assets in Iran through subsidiary companies. They owned 801 00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:23,560 Speaker 16: the telecom industry. They're in trench. There's three leaders right 802 00:45:23,640 --> 00:45:27,040 Speaker 16: behind the Supreme i Atola over there. And you know, 803 00:45:27,160 --> 00:45:30,520 Speaker 16: so without a significant uprising from within, I don't know 804 00:45:30,560 --> 00:45:33,400 Speaker 16: if it's possible to change what's going on here. But 805 00:45:33,960 --> 00:45:37,920 Speaker 16: that Trump was at the top of that assassination list here. 806 00:45:38,120 --> 00:45:41,320 Speaker 16: And remember at the border years ago, in between Trump 807 00:45:42,080 --> 00:45:43,880 Speaker 16: and I think at the end of Trump's term, they 808 00:45:43,880 --> 00:45:48,839 Speaker 16: were Iranian suspects captured at the border. I think one 809 00:45:48,880 --> 00:45:51,680 Speaker 16: woman had like seventeen thousand dollars in cash on her. 810 00:45:52,160 --> 00:45:55,000 Speaker 16: There's been a lot of activity here and there's been 811 00:45:55,040 --> 00:45:59,440 Speaker 16: at least fifteen Iran linked terror attacks and kidnappings and 812 00:45:59,480 --> 00:46:03,560 Speaker 16: assassin attempts that the UK has broken up in just 813 00:46:03,760 --> 00:46:07,960 Speaker 16: recent years, a shop rise in threats from Iranian dissidents, 814 00:46:08,160 --> 00:46:10,080 Speaker 16: and then on top of that we've got. 815 00:46:09,920 --> 00:46:11,320 Speaker 19: Threats in the United States. 816 00:46:11,360 --> 00:46:14,560 Speaker 16: But my point is is that you know there were 817 00:46:14,600 --> 00:46:18,239 Speaker 16: lone wolf attacks in New York City, supposedly lone wolf. Right, 818 00:46:18,320 --> 00:46:21,600 Speaker 16: you had the home Depot truck driver while Trump was 819 00:46:21,640 --> 00:46:24,640 Speaker 16: in office in Halloween killing eight to nine people, the 820 00:46:25,239 --> 00:46:27,760 Speaker 16: you know, the pressure cook of bomber, the subway bomber. 821 00:46:27,960 --> 00:46:29,240 Speaker 19: Now these guys were Sunnies. 822 00:46:29,840 --> 00:46:32,560 Speaker 16: But you also had a Palestinian terrace in nineteen eighty 823 00:46:32,560 --> 00:46:35,440 Speaker 16: seven murder somebody on the top of the Empire State Building. 824 00:46:35,920 --> 00:46:38,640 Speaker 19: You had Labovich students on the Brooklyn Bridge. 825 00:46:38,760 --> 00:46:41,080 Speaker 16: They stopped the bus, they got a shotgun and a 826 00:46:41,120 --> 00:46:43,160 Speaker 16: pistol and they killed a fifteen year old student. 827 00:46:43,200 --> 00:46:44,320 Speaker 19: I believe he was fifteen. 828 00:46:44,920 --> 00:46:48,640 Speaker 16: These attacks were NonStop, and then you had the Pakistani 829 00:46:48,719 --> 00:46:51,680 Speaker 16: ISIS related guy who put the fuse in backwards of 830 00:46:51,719 --> 00:46:54,320 Speaker 16: the propane bomb and Times Square if that thing went off, 831 00:46:54,760 --> 00:46:57,240 Speaker 16: and thank god for Wayne Radagan, the Mounted police officer 832 00:46:57,239 --> 00:47:00,719 Speaker 16: who has spoken to at length. You know, he caught 833 00:47:00,760 --> 00:47:02,279 Speaker 16: it in time for the guy had a chance to 834 00:47:02,320 --> 00:47:03,960 Speaker 16: flip the fuse around. We were at a couple of 835 00:47:04,040 --> 00:47:07,160 Speaker 16: hundred dead just from the glass in Times Square. 836 00:47:07,400 --> 00:47:09,800 Speaker 19: So we have to be super vigilant. 837 00:47:09,840 --> 00:47:12,640 Speaker 16: And the activities on the college campuses and what happened 838 00:47:12,680 --> 00:47:15,440 Speaker 16: in Denver, and what happened in DC or in Boulder, 839 00:47:15,480 --> 00:47:18,640 Speaker 16: and what happened in DC a few weeks ago, I 840 00:47:18,680 --> 00:47:22,800 Speaker 16: think you will see anti Semitic hate on the rise. 841 00:47:22,840 --> 00:47:25,279 Speaker 16: As I said earlier in April, I think there was 842 00:47:25,320 --> 00:47:30,160 Speaker 16: about a thirty five percent increase that in attacks on 843 00:47:30,280 --> 00:47:34,080 Speaker 16: Jews in New York City alone. That has subsided, but 844 00:47:34,320 --> 00:47:37,319 Speaker 16: that's probably going to happen again. My kids live in 845 00:47:37,360 --> 00:47:39,560 Speaker 16: New York City. I can't sleep at night. I lost 846 00:47:39,560 --> 00:47:41,160 Speaker 16: my best friend in nine to eleven, from when I 847 00:47:41,200 --> 00:47:45,000 Speaker 16: was a teenager. One of my best friends. And you know, 848 00:47:45,080 --> 00:47:47,960 Speaker 16: my sister lost eighty one clients. Howard Lutnick lost seven 849 00:47:48,040 --> 00:47:51,080 Speaker 16: hundred employees. We don't want to see anything like that again. 850 00:47:51,560 --> 00:47:53,759 Speaker 16: So it's time to be super vigilant. And I don't 851 00:47:53,760 --> 00:47:56,560 Speaker 16: mind the deportations. You know, let's get rid of anybody 852 00:47:56,600 --> 00:47:59,279 Speaker 16: who hates America right now, who has any type of 853 00:47:59,280 --> 00:48:02,560 Speaker 16: Iranian Hey, Jake, I just. 854 00:48:02,600 --> 00:48:05,479 Speaker 13: Make a couple, don't forget. Oh, go ahead, Frank, go ahead, Frank. 855 00:48:05,960 --> 00:48:09,239 Speaker 14: Just just to add to that litany that David very 856 00:48:09,719 --> 00:48:13,800 Speaker 14: handsomely wahed out speaking of nine to eleven, David, is 857 00:48:13,840 --> 00:48:20,160 Speaker 14: you know the Iranians did seeker covert training of those 858 00:48:20,520 --> 00:48:24,520 Speaker 14: hijackers inside Iran for nine to eleven. 859 00:48:24,920 --> 00:48:25,520 Speaker 12: There was an. 860 00:48:25,440 --> 00:48:28,719 Speaker 14: Iranian piece of that plot. And it speaks to the 861 00:48:28,760 --> 00:48:31,480 Speaker 14: issue that you sort of alluded to, and that is 862 00:48:31,520 --> 00:48:35,920 Speaker 14: the willingness of the Shiites of Iran and the Sunnis, 863 00:48:36,360 --> 00:48:40,759 Speaker 14: Saudi Arabian and cut her most especially as evidenced in 864 00:48:40,840 --> 00:48:45,600 Speaker 14: Hamas being perfectly willing to collaborate against those that they 865 00:48:45,640 --> 00:48:47,520 Speaker 14: considered to be their mutual enemy.

And just to emphasize this point, the 869 00:48:57,640 --> 00:49:00,600 Speaker 14: Muslim Brotherhood operations, and I think some of them are 870 00:49:00,680 --> 00:49:03,839 Speaker 14: ones that you were referring to there, David, are very 871 00:49:03,960 --> 00:49:07,040 Speaker 14: dangerous in this country as well. I mean, Donald Trump 872 00:49:07,120 --> 00:49:10,760 Speaker 14: has a memorable speech on the fifteenth of August twenty 873 00:49:10,840 --> 00:49:15,600 Speaker 14: sixteen laid out the case for stripping out the networks 874 00:49:16,360 --> 00:49:19,920 Speaker 14: of the ideology that he called radical Islamic terrorism I 875 00:49:19,960 --> 00:49:23,239 Speaker 14: think is better described as Sharia supremacism.

Thanks to President 975 00:54:25,920 --> 00:54:29,440 Speaker 21: Trump's bold and visionary leadership and his commitment to peace 976 00:54:29,600 --> 00:54:34,560 Speaker 21: through strength, Iran's nuclear ambitions have been obliterated. 977 00:54:35,880 --> 00:54:38,560 Speaker 22: Many presidents have dreamed. 978 00:54:38,120 --> 00:54:42,880 Speaker 21: Of delivering the final blow to Iran's nuclear program, and 979 00:54:42,960 --> 00:54:50,360 Speaker 21: none could until President Trump. The operation President Trump planned 980 00:54:50,600 --> 00:54:54,920 Speaker 21: was bold and it was brilliant, showing the world that 981 00:54:55,160 --> 00:55:01,880 Speaker 21: American deterrence is back. When this president speaks, the world 982 00:55:02,360 --> 00:55:06,920 Speaker 21: should listen, and the US military we can back it up, 983 00:55:07,920 --> 00:55:12,040 Speaker 21: the most powerful military the world has ever known. No 984 00:55:12,160 --> 00:55:15,800 Speaker 21: other country on planet Earth could have conducted the operation 985 00:55:15,960 --> 00:55:18,840 Speaker 21: that the Chairman is going to outline this morning, not 986 00:55:19,120 --> 00:55:25,120 Speaker 21: even close, just like Solimani found out in the first term, 987 00:55:25,480 --> 00:55:29,480 Speaker 21: Iran found out. When Potus says sixty days that he 988 00:55:29,600 --> 00:55:34,320 Speaker 21: seeks peace and negotiation, he means sixty days of peace 989 00:55:34,400 --> 00:55:40,879 Speaker 21: and negotiation. Otherwise that nuclear program, that nuclear capability will 990 00:55:40,920 --> 00:55:41,520 Speaker 21: not exist. 991 00:55:41,560 --> 00:55:42,239 Speaker 22: He meant it. 992 00:55:43,120 --> 00:55:49,320 Speaker 21: This is not the previous administration. The President Trump said 993 00:55:49,600 --> 00:55:56,240 Speaker 21: no nukes, he seeks peace, and Iran should take that path. 994 00:55:57,920 --> 00:56:02,800 Speaker 21: He sent out a truth last night saying this, any 995 00:56:02,880 --> 00:56:07,600 Speaker 21: retaliation by Iran against the United States of America will 996 00:56:07,640 --> 00:56:11,840 Speaker 21: be met with force far greater than what was witnessed tonight, 997 00:56:13,160 --> 00:56:16,040 Speaker 21: signed the President of the United States, Donald J. 998 00:56:16,320 --> 00:56:16,680 Speaker 22: Trump. 999 00:56:17,000 --> 00:56:22,040 Speaker 21: Iran would be smart to heed those words. He's said 1000 00:56:22,040 --> 00:56:23,080 Speaker 21: it before and. 1001 00:56:23,080 --> 00:56:23,640 Speaker 22: He means it. 1002 00:56:24,480 --> 00:56:26,680 Speaker 21: I want to give recognition to the Chairman of the 1003 00:56:26,719 --> 00:56:32,160 Speaker 21: Joint Chiefs Staff, the Joint Staff, General Eric Carilla at SENTCOM, 1004 00:56:32,800 --> 00:56:33,360 Speaker 21: who did. 1005 00:56:33,200 --> 00:56:36,920 Speaker 22: A phenomenal job. He and his staff, all of Sentkom 1006 00:56:37,320 --> 00:56:39,160 Speaker 22: policy across the board. 1007 00:56:39,239 --> 00:56:43,560 Speaker 21: This was a joint effort and across the Pentagon effort. 1008 00:56:44,400 --> 00:56:48,600 Speaker 21: I want to recognize the pilots who flew those bombers, 1009 00:56:49,360 --> 00:56:55,200 Speaker 21: who flew those fighters, who flew those refuelers, warriors. I 1010 00:56:55,239 --> 00:56:59,560 Speaker 21: want to recognize the sailors on those destroyers, in those subs. 1011 00:56:59,200 --> 00:57:02,600 Speaker 22: On those carriers. Warriors, all of them. 1012 00:57:02,960 --> 00:57:06,439 Speaker 21: I want to recognize our soldiers doing air defense, base 1013 00:57:06,520 --> 00:57:11,799 Speaker 21: defense QRF warriors, all of them. Every American involved in 1014 00:57:11,840 --> 00:57:17,600 Speaker 21: this operation performed flawlessly, and I want to give recognition 1015 00:57:18,040 --> 00:57:21,960 Speaker 21: to our allies in Israel as well. This is a 1016 00:57:22,000 --> 00:57:25,760 Speaker 21: plan that took months and weeks of positioning and preparation 1017 00:57:26,440 --> 00:57:29,600 Speaker 21: so that we could be ready when the President of 1018 00:57:29,600 --> 00:57:33,400 Speaker 21: the United States called It took a great deal of precision. 1019 00:57:34,320 --> 00:57:41,960 Speaker 21: It involved misdirection and the highest of operational security. Our 1020 00:57:42,040 --> 00:57:46,400 Speaker 21: B twos went in and out of downtown Tehran, Tehran, 1021 00:57:46,440 --> 00:57:49,000 Speaker 21: excuse me, of these nuclear sites, in and out and 1022 00:57:49,040 --> 00:57:53,000 Speaker 21: back without the world knowing at all. In that way, 1023 00:57:53,040 --> 00:57:56,360 Speaker 21: it was historic, a strike that included the longest B 1024 00:57:56,440 --> 00:57:58,960 Speaker 21: two spirit bomber mission since two thousand and one and 1025 00:57:59,000 --> 00:58:04,160 Speaker 21: the first operation employment of the mop A massive ordinance penetrator. 1026 00:58:05,000 --> 00:58:08,240 Speaker 21: The mission demonstrated to the world the level of joint 1027 00:58:08,240 --> 00:58:11,200 Speaker 21: and allied integration that speak to the strength of our 1028 00:58:11,240 --> 00:58:15,520 Speaker 21: alliance and our joint forces. As President Trump has stated, 1029 00:58:15,560 --> 00:58:18,840 Speaker 21: the United States does not seek war, but let me 1030 00:58:18,920 --> 00:58:23,600 Speaker 21: be clear, we will act swiftly and decisively when our people, 1031 00:58:24,480 --> 00:58:29,880 Speaker 21: our partners, or our interests are threatened. Iran should listen 1032 00:58:29,880 --> 00:58:31,640 Speaker 21: to the President the United States and know that he 1033 00:58:31,720 --> 00:58:35,240 Speaker 21: means it every word. I want to give congratulations to 1034 00:58:35,280 --> 00:58:37,320 Speaker 21: our commander in chief. It was an honor to watch 1035 00:58:37,360 --> 00:58:40,680 Speaker 21: him lead last night and throughout, and to our great 1036 00:58:40,680 --> 00:58:46,000 Speaker 21: American warriors on this successful operation. God bless our troops, 1037 00:58:47,040 --> 00:58:50,240 Speaker 21: God bless America, and we give glory to God for 1038 00:58:50,320 --> 00:58:54,800 Speaker 21: his providence and continue to ask for his protection. 1039 00:58:55,720 --> 00:58:58,600 Speaker 22: I turn it over now to the Chairman for specifics. 1040 00:58:58,960 --> 00:59:03,280 Speaker 23: Thank you, Miss stric Terry, Thanks for recognizing all of 1041 00:59:03,280 --> 00:59:06,400 Speaker 23: our folks out there doing our nation's work, and nice 1042 00:59:06,440 --> 00:59:09,800 Speaker 23: to see everybody on this early Sunday morning. Last night, 1043 00:59:09,840 --> 00:59:13,040 Speaker 23: on the President's orders, US Central Command, under the command 1044 00:59:13,120 --> 00:59:18,080 Speaker 23: of General Eric Krilla, executed Operation Midnight Hammer, a deliberate 1045 00:59:18,160 --> 00:59:23,200 Speaker 23: and precise strike against three Iranian nuclear facilities. This was 1046 00:59:23,240 --> 00:59:26,880 Speaker 23: a complex and high risk mission carried out with exceptional 1047 00:59:26,920 --> 00:59:30,360 Speaker 23: skill and disciplined by our joint force. I want to 1048 00:59:30,400 --> 00:59:34,920 Speaker 23: thank every service member, planner, operator that made this mission possible. 1049 00:59:35,680 --> 00:59:39,160 Speaker 23: Their actions reflect the highest standards of the United States 1050 00:59:39,280 --> 00:59:44,400 Speaker 23: Armed Forces. This operation was designed to severely degrade Rand's 1051 00:59:44,480 --> 00:59:49,240 Speaker 23: nuclear weapons infrastructure. It was planned and executed across multiple 1052 00:59:49,320 --> 00:59:53,840 Speaker 23: domains and theaters with coordination that reflects our ability to 1053 00:59:54,000 --> 00:59:58,480 Speaker 23: project power globally with speed and precision. At the time 1054 00:59:58,640 --> 01:00:01,880 Speaker 23: and place of our nation choosing, this was a highly 1055 01:00:01,920 --> 01:00:05,920 Speaker 23: classified mission, with very few people in Washington knowing the 1056 01:00:05,960 --> 01:00:09,440 Speaker 23: timing or nature of this plan. I'll refer you to 1057 01:00:09,480 --> 01:00:12,160 Speaker 23: the graphic on the side as I walk you through 1058 01:00:12,200 --> 01:00:17,440 Speaker 23: some of the operational details. At midnight Friday into Saturday morning, 1059 01:00:17,720 --> 01:00:21,200 Speaker 23: a large B two strike package comprised of bombers launched 1060 01:00:21,200 --> 01:00:24,560 Speaker 23: from the continental United States as part of a plan 1061 01:00:24,680 --> 01:00:28,560 Speaker 23: to maintain tactical surprise. Part of the package proceeded to 1062 01:00:28,600 --> 01:00:32,040 Speaker 23: the west and into the Pacific as a decoy, a 1063 01:00:32,120 --> 01:00:37,000 Speaker 23: deception effort known only to an extremely small number of 1064 01:00:37,040 --> 01:00:40,760 Speaker 23: planners and key leaders here in Washington and in Tampa. 1065 01:00:41,240 --> 01:00:45,280 Speaker 23: The main strike package, comprised of seven V two Spirit bombers, 1066 01:00:45,320 --> 01:00:49,760 Speaker 23: each with two crew members, proceeded quietly to the east 1067 01:00:49,920 --> 01:00:55,080 Speaker 23: with minimal communications. Throughout the eighteen hour flight into the 1068 01:00:55,120 --> 01:01:01,400 Speaker 23: target area. The aircraft completed multiple inflight refuelings. Once over land, 1069 01:01:01,840 --> 01:01:05,360 Speaker 23: the B twos linked up with escort and support aircraft 1070 01:01:05,440 --> 01:01:11,640 Speaker 23: in a complex, tightly timed maneuver requiring exact synchronization across 1071 01:01:11,760 --> 01:01:16,200 Speaker 23: multiple platforms in a narrow piece of airspace, all done 1072 01:01:16,480 --> 01:01:22,120 Speaker 23: with minimal communications. This type of integration is exactly what 1073 01:01:22,240 --> 01:01:26,040 Speaker 23: our joint force does better than anyone else in the world. 1074 01:01:26,960 --> 01:01:31,280 Speaker 23: At approximately five pm Eastern Standard time last night, and 1075 01:01:31,560 --> 01:01:35,280 Speaker 23: just prior to the strike package entering Iran, a US 1076 01:01:35,360 --> 01:01:39,520 Speaker 23: submarine in the Central Command Area of responsibility launched more 1077 01:01:39,600 --> 01:01:43,800 Speaker 23: than two dozen Tomahawk land attack cruise missiles against key 1078 01:01:44,040 --> 01:01:49,520 Speaker 23: surface infrastructure targets at Esfahan. As the Operation Midnight Hammer 1079 01:01:49,600 --> 01:01:56,040 Speaker 23: strike package entered Iranian airspace, the US employed several deception tactics, 1080 01:01:56,080 --> 01:02:01,520 Speaker 23: including decoys as the fourth and fifth General Aircraft pushed 1081 01:02:01,520 --> 01:02:05,360 Speaker 23: out in front of the strike package at high altitude 1082 01:02:05,440 --> 01:02:08,920 Speaker 23: and high speed sweeping in front of the package for 1083 01:02:09,160 --> 01:02:13,360 Speaker 23: enemy fighters and surface to air missile threats. The strike 1084 01:02:13,480 --> 01:02:18,880 Speaker 23: package was supported by US Strategic Command, US Transportation Command, 1085 01:02:19,480 --> 01:02:25,400 Speaker 23: US Cyber Command, US Space Command, US Space Force, and 1086 01:02:25,600 --> 01:02:30,919 Speaker 23: US European Command. As the strike package approached for DOEU 1087 01:02:31,160 --> 01:02:36,760 Speaker 23: and NATANCE, the US protection package employed high speed suppression 1088 01:02:36,800 --> 01:02:41,000 Speaker 23: weapons to ensure safe passage of the strike package, with 1089 01:02:41,120 --> 01:02:47,240 Speaker 23: fighter assets employing preemptive suppressing fires against any potential Iranian 1090 01:02:47,520 --> 01:02:48,760 Speaker 23: surface to air threats. 1091 01:02:49,440 --> 01:02:50,760 Speaker 22: We are currently. 1092 01:02:50,400 --> 01:02:54,880 Speaker 23: Unaware of any shots fired at the US strike package 1093 01:02:55,200 --> 01:02:59,640 Speaker 23: on the way in. At approximately six forty pm Eastern 1094 01:02:59,680 --> 01:03:05,160 Speaker 23: Standard time two ten am, Iran time, the lead B 1095 01:03:05,280 --> 01:03:11,080 Speaker 23: two dropped two GBU fifty seven massive ordnance penetrator weapons 1096 01:03:11,120 --> 01:03:14,360 Speaker 23: on the first of several aim points at four doh. 1097 01:03:15,120 --> 01:03:18,360 Speaker 23: As the President stated last night, The remaining bombers then 1098 01:03:18,480 --> 01:03:21,920 Speaker 23: hit their targets as well, with a total of fourteen 1099 01:03:22,080 --> 01:03:28,560 Speaker 23: mops dropped against two nuclear target areas. All three Iranian 1100 01:03:28,640 --> 01:03:33,440 Speaker 23: nuclear infrastructure targets were struck between six forty pm and 1101 01:03:33,640 --> 01:03:37,200 Speaker 23: seven ZHO five pm Eastern time. Again, that's about two 1102 01:03:37,360 --> 01:03:40,760 Speaker 23: ten in the morning local time in Iran, with the 1103 01:03:40,800 --> 01:03:43,600 Speaker 23: Tomahawk missiles being the last. 1104 01:03:43,480 --> 01:03:45,040 Speaker 18: To strike at Esfahan. 1105 01:03:45,240 --> 01:03:49,600 Speaker 23: To ensure we retain the element of surprise throughout the operation. 1106 01:03:50,880 --> 01:03:55,800 Speaker 23: Following weapons release, the midnight Hammer Strike package exited Iranian 1107 01:03:55,840 --> 01:04:00,360 Speaker 23: airspace and the package began its return home. We are 1108 01:04:00,440 --> 01:04:05,240 Speaker 23: unaware of any shots fired at the package on the 1109 01:04:05,320 --> 01:04:11,320 Speaker 23: way out. Iran's fighters did not fly, and it appears 1110 01:04:11,400 --> 01:04:15,880 Speaker 23: that Iran's surface to air missile systems did not see 1111 01:04:15,960 --> 01:04:20,760 Speaker 23: US throughout the mission. We retained the element of surprise. 1112 01:04:21,760 --> 01:04:26,520 Speaker 23: In total, US forces employed approximately seventy five precision guided 1113 01:04:26,600 --> 01:04:30,760 Speaker 23: weapons during this operation. This included, as the President stated 1114 01:04:30,840 --> 01:04:35,560 Speaker 23: last night, fourteen thirty thousand pounds GBU fifty seven massive 1115 01:04:35,720 --> 01:04:40,920 Speaker 23: ordnance penetrators, marking the first ever operational use of this weapon. 1116 01:04:42,080 --> 01:04:45,240 Speaker 23: I know that battle damage is of great interest. Final 1117 01:04:45,280 --> 01:04:48,600 Speaker 23: battle damage will take some time, but initial battle damage 1118 01:04:48,640 --> 01:04:53,600 Speaker 23: assessments indicate that all three sites sustained extremely severe damage 1119 01:04:54,000 --> 01:04:58,760 Speaker 23: and destruction. More than one hundred and twenty five US 1120 01:04:58,840 --> 01:05:03,640 Speaker 23: aircraft participat in this mission, including B two stealth bombers, 1121 01:05:04,320 --> 01:05:09,400 Speaker 23: multiple flights of fourth and fifth generation fighters, dozens and 1122 01:05:09,560 --> 01:05:14,200 Speaker 23: dozens of air refueling tankers, a guided missile submarine, and 1123 01:05:14,280 --> 01:05:20,000 Speaker 23: a full array of intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance aircraft, as 1124 01:05:20,040 --> 01:05:24,920 Speaker 23: well as hundreds of maintenance and operational professionals. As this 1125 01:05:25,000 --> 01:05:29,520 Speaker 23: secretary said, this was those largest B two operational strike 1126 01:05:30,000 --> 01:05:34,520 Speaker 23: in US history and the second longest B two mission 1127 01:05:34,920 --> 01:05:38,720 Speaker 23: ever flown, exceeded only by those in the days following 1128 01:05:38,800 --> 01:05:43,400 Speaker 23: nine to eleven. Well prior to the strike, General Carilla 1129 01:05:43,760 --> 01:05:48,920 Speaker 23: elevated force protection measures across the region, especially in Iraq, Syria, 1130 01:05:49,000 --> 01:05:53,480 Speaker 23: and the Gulf. Our forces remain on high alert and 1131 01:05:53,560 --> 01:05:58,000 Speaker 23: are fully postured to respond to any Iranian retaliation or 1132 01:05:58,040 --> 01:06:04,000 Speaker 23: proxy attacks, which would be an incredibly poor choice. We 1133 01:06:04,160 --> 01:06:09,200 Speaker 23: will defend ourselves. The safety of our service members and 1134 01:06:09,320 --> 01:06:17,200 Speaker 23: civilians remains our highest priority. This mission demonstrates the unmatched reach, coordination, 1135 01:06:17,360 --> 01:06:20,960 Speaker 23: and capability of the United States Military. In just a 1136 01:06:21,040 --> 01:06:25,760 Speaker 23: matter of weeks, this went from strategic planning to global execution. 1137 01:06:26,520 --> 01:06:32,040 Speaker 23: This operation underscores the unmatched capabilities and global reach of 1138 01:06:32,080 --> 01:06:36,680 Speaker 23: the United States Military. As the President clearly said last night, 1139 01:06:37,400 --> 01:06:40,800 Speaker 23: no other in the no other military in the world, 1140 01:06:41,160 --> 01:06:44,320 Speaker 23: could have done this. I joined the President and the 1141 01:06:44,360 --> 01:06:49,040 Speaker 23: Secretary and being incredibly proud of the air crews, naval forces, 1142 01:06:49,480 --> 01:06:53,400 Speaker 23: cyber operators, planners and support teams and commanders who made 1143 01:06:53,400 --> 01:06:57,920 Speaker 23: this mission possible. It is their skill, discipline, and teammate 1144 01:06:58,400 --> 01:07:03,440 Speaker 23: teamwork that makes this operation possible. I am particularly proud 1145 01:07:03,960 --> 01:07:08,120 Speaker 23: of our discipline related to operational security, something that was 1146 01:07:08,200 --> 01:07:12,680 Speaker 23: of great concern to the President, the Secretary, General Carilla, 1147 01:07:13,000 --> 01:07:16,240 Speaker 23: and me, and we will continue to focus on this. 1148 01:07:17,000 --> 01:07:20,280 Speaker 23: As we stand here this morning, many assets are still 1149 01:07:20,320 --> 01:07:23,840 Speaker 23: airborne and we have hundreds deployed. I asked that we 1150 01:07:23,920 --> 01:07:27,800 Speaker 23: keep our warfighters on their way home and our deployed 1151 01:07:27,840 --> 01:07:32,000 Speaker 23: service member in our thoughts. Our joint force remains ready 1152 01:07:32,040 --> 01:07:35,480 Speaker 23: to defend the United States, our troops, and our interests 1153 01:07:35,520 --> 01:07:37,439 Speaker 23: in the region. Thank you very much. 1154 01:07:39,040 --> 01:07:40,600 Speaker 22: We will take a few questions. 1155 01:07:40,640 --> 01:07:40,880 Speaker 5: Phil. 1156 01:07:41,920 --> 01:07:45,560 Speaker 13: Yeah, so is regime change off the table? 1157 01:07:45,600 --> 01:07:46,400 Speaker 15: Mister secretary? 1158 01:07:46,680 --> 01:07:50,480 Speaker 17: And to the chairman, you know. 1159 01:07:49,320 --> 01:07:52,040 Speaker 20: You said the battle damage assessment is still ongoing, but 1160 01:07:52,440 --> 01:07:55,720 Speaker 20: do you believe that some nuclear capability in Iran remains? 1161 01:07:57,840 --> 01:08:01,240 Speaker 21: This mission was not and has not been, about regime change. 1162 01:08:02,240 --> 01:08:07,560 Speaker 21: The President authorized a precision operation to neutralize the threats 1163 01:08:07,600 --> 01:08:11,840 Speaker 21: to our national interests posed by the Iranian nuclear program 1164 01:08:12,400 --> 01:08:15,760 Speaker 21: and the collective self defense of our troops and our 1165 01:08:15,800 --> 01:08:16,599 Speaker 21: ally Israel. 1166 01:08:18,920 --> 01:08:19,880 Speaker 22: Thanks for your question. 1167 01:08:20,160 --> 01:08:22,800 Speaker 23: I think BDA is still pending and it would be 1168 01:08:22,880 --> 01:08:24,960 Speaker 23: way too early for me to comment on what may 1169 01:08:25,040 --> 01:08:26,120 Speaker 23: or may not still be there. 1170 01:08:26,200 --> 01:08:27,080 Speaker 19: But thanks for the question. 1171 01:08:27,880 --> 01:08:30,720 Speaker 22: Green Green, no behind. 1172 01:08:30,400 --> 01:08:33,160 Speaker 8: You student was Secretary? 1173 01:08:33,160 --> 01:08:35,639 Speaker 14: Can you tell me it was there a particular moment 1174 01:08:35,720 --> 01:08:38,000 Speaker 14: when the President decided to pull the trigger on this 1175 01:08:38,080 --> 01:08:41,559 Speaker 14: operation where he said, now, rather than being you know, 1176 01:08:41,800 --> 01:08:43,160 Speaker 14: something in the holes or now we're going to. 1177 01:08:43,160 --> 01:08:46,040 Speaker 21: Pull the drigger on, I would just say having the 1178 01:08:46,080 --> 01:08:50,479 Speaker 21: opportunity to witness his leadership. He was fully committed to 1179 01:08:50,479 --> 01:08:55,400 Speaker 21: the peace process, wanted, wanted a negotiated outcome, gave Iran 1180 01:08:55,600 --> 01:08:59,800 Speaker 21: every single opportunity and unfortunately was met by stonewalling, which 1181 01:08:59,800 --> 01:09:02,439 Speaker 21: is what he gave them. Plenty of time to continue 1182 01:09:02,439 --> 01:09:04,519 Speaker 21: to come to the table and give up enrichment, give 1183 01:09:04,600 --> 01:09:07,519 Speaker 21: up the nuclear program. But there was a I won't 1184 01:09:07,560 --> 01:09:09,439 Speaker 21: say the particular moment, there was certainly a moment in 1185 01:09:09,439 --> 01:09:12,439 Speaker 21: time where he realized that it had to be a 1186 01:09:12,479 --> 01:09:15,240 Speaker 21: certain action taken in order to minimize the threat to 1187 01:09:15,400 --> 01:09:16,160 Speaker 21: US in our troops. 1188 01:09:18,160 --> 01:09:22,479 Speaker 24: Yeah, General, you say that General Carolla increased force protection 1189 01:09:23,040 --> 01:09:26,599 Speaker 24: in Iraqs area and go from those areas. Were they 1190 01:09:26,640 --> 01:09:30,000 Speaker 24: given any advance warning the attacks were coming? And also, 1191 01:09:30,479 --> 01:09:34,360 Speaker 24: as a secretary, when we're congressional leaders notified how long 1192 01:09:34,439 --> 01:09:36,000 Speaker 24: before the attacks. 1193 01:09:35,720 --> 01:09:39,439 Speaker 22: Replays sure to your first question. 1194 01:09:39,600 --> 01:09:42,280 Speaker 23: You know the risk has clearly been rising over the 1195 01:09:42,320 --> 01:09:46,200 Speaker 23: last few weeks in the region. Based on that and 1196 01:09:46,240 --> 01:09:50,479 Speaker 23: not a particular awareness of this operation, We've made smart 1197 01:09:50,560 --> 01:09:54,160 Speaker 23: decisions to minimize the risk to US forces in the region. 1198 01:09:54,720 --> 01:09:59,120 Speaker 17: No advance warning, No, sure, in Congressional. 1199 01:09:59,680 --> 01:10:02,960 Speaker 21: They were they were notified after the planes were safely 1200 01:10:03,000 --> 01:10:06,360 Speaker 21: out where we complied with the notification requirements of the 1201 01:10:06,439 --> 01:10:10,480 Speaker 21: War Powers Act attacks they were notified, they were immediately thereafter. 1202 01:10:11,840 --> 01:10:13,600 Speaker 8: Yes, thank you. 1203 01:10:14,400 --> 01:10:20,919 Speaker 25: Two questions, do you believe you completely destroyed Iranian nuclear program? 1204 01:10:21,240 --> 01:10:27,920 Speaker 25: And how about Iranian ballasted missiles? As I always saying 1205 01:10:27,960 --> 01:10:32,840 Speaker 25: that his biggest threat. And second question is very important, 1206 01:10:33,880 --> 01:10:39,479 Speaker 25: what will be your next step if Iran or militias 1207 01:10:39,600 --> 01:10:44,559 Speaker 25: under Iranian influence from the region attack US interests or 1208 01:10:44,640 --> 01:10:45,320 Speaker 25: all eyes. 1209 01:10:45,439 --> 01:10:46,120 Speaker 15: In the region. 1210 01:10:47,600 --> 01:10:49,400 Speaker 22: And you can chime in on this too, miss Chairman. 1211 01:10:50,400 --> 01:10:53,919 Speaker 21: The battle damage assessment is ongoing, but our initial assessment, 1212 01:10:53,960 --> 01:10:56,559 Speaker 21: as the Chairman said, is that all of our precision 1213 01:10:56,640 --> 01:10:59,360 Speaker 21: munitions struck where we wanted them to strike and had 1214 01:10:59,360 --> 01:11:02,559 Speaker 21: the desire of effect, which means especially in four Doah, 1215 01:11:02,640 --> 01:11:05,679 Speaker 21: which was the primary target here, we believe we achieved 1216 01:11:05,760 --> 01:11:11,799 Speaker 21: destruction of capabilities there. Ultimately, wherever it may be, whether 1217 01:11:11,840 --> 01:11:14,639 Speaker 21: it's in Iraq or Syria or Basis in the Gulf, 1218 01:11:15,320 --> 01:11:17,280 Speaker 21: as the President said it would be, or excuse me, 1219 01:11:17,320 --> 01:11:18,880 Speaker 21: as the Chairman said, it would be a very bad 1220 01:11:18,920 --> 01:11:22,880 Speaker 21: idea for Iran or its proxies to attempt to attack 1221 01:11:22,920 --> 01:11:23,839 Speaker 21: American forces. 1222 01:11:25,760 --> 01:11:27,679 Speaker 15: Yes, thank you, mister Secretar. 1223 01:11:27,720 --> 01:11:34,120 Speaker 26: Career regarding retaliations. Iran and North Korea are cooperating on 1224 01:11:34,320 --> 01:11:38,960 Speaker 26: your career and missile development. Do you think there is 1225 01:11:39,000 --> 01:11:44,080 Speaker 26: a possibility that Iran knows Korea and the other forces 1226 01:11:44,600 --> 01:11:51,600 Speaker 26: such as China, we'll join forces to retaliate against the 1227 01:11:51,760 --> 01:11:52,639 Speaker 26: United State. 1228 01:11:53,800 --> 01:11:56,720 Speaker 21: Well, unfortunately, because of the policies under the previous administration, 1229 01:11:56,800 --> 01:12:03,439 Speaker 21: we drove those countries together, and ultimately that creates a 1230 01:12:03,479 --> 01:12:04,720 Speaker 21: challenging environment. 1231 01:12:04,960 --> 01:12:06,280 Speaker 22: For this particular operation. 1232 01:12:06,320 --> 01:12:09,120 Speaker 21: The focus is on Iran and an Iranian nuclear capabilities. 1233 01:12:09,120 --> 01:12:12,080 Speaker 21: That's our focus here is to not just say that 1234 01:12:12,120 --> 01:12:14,960 Speaker 21: they can't have but President Trump has said from over 1235 01:12:15,000 --> 01:12:18,960 Speaker 21: twenty years, frankly, Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon, and 1236 01:12:19,120 --> 01:12:21,880 Speaker 21: ultimately he decided this is the moment, given their stonewalling, 1237 01:12:22,320 --> 01:12:26,240 Speaker 21: when direct military action had to be taken to prevent 1238 01:12:26,280 --> 01:12:26,960 Speaker 21: that from happening. 1239 01:12:28,040 --> 01:12:29,360 Speaker 17: Yes, thank you very much. 1240 01:12:29,640 --> 01:12:32,679 Speaker 27: General Kane, I understand obsek I respect. 1241 01:12:32,720 --> 01:12:33,200 Speaker 15: On the sect. 1242 01:12:33,280 --> 01:12:37,320 Speaker 27: Can you say at all what security procedures are being 1243 01:12:37,400 --> 01:12:40,320 Speaker 27: taken to protect US troops in Iraq and elsewhere in 1244 01:12:40,360 --> 01:12:45,080 Speaker 27: the least and Secretary Hegseth as a global war on terrorism? Veteran, 1245 01:12:45,760 --> 01:12:48,000 Speaker 27: what do you say to veterans who may be concerned 1246 01:12:48,120 --> 01:12:50,680 Speaker 27: the US is getting into another open ended war in 1247 01:12:50,680 --> 01:12:52,639 Speaker 27: the Middle East over weapons of mass destruction. 1248 01:12:54,160 --> 01:12:57,280 Speaker 22: Thanks sir for the question. I won't comment on. 1249 01:12:57,200 --> 01:13:01,000 Speaker 23: What force protection measures are being to in the region. 1250 01:13:01,600 --> 01:13:06,000 Speaker 23: What I will say is we're being proactive and not reactive, 1251 01:13:07,040 --> 01:13:09,880 Speaker 23: and being very thoughtful about ensuring that we do all 1252 01:13:09,920 --> 01:13:11,960 Speaker 23: that we can to protect our forces out there. 1253 01:13:13,200 --> 01:13:15,799 Speaker 21: And I would just say, as the President has directed 1254 01:13:15,840 --> 01:13:18,840 Speaker 21: and made clear, this is most certainly not open ending. 1255 01:13:19,640 --> 01:13:22,760 Speaker 21: It doesn't mean it limits our ability to respond. We 1256 01:13:22,800 --> 01:13:25,280 Speaker 21: will respond if necessary. The most powerful military in the 1257 01:13:25,280 --> 01:13:28,920 Speaker 21: world is postured and prepared to defend our people. But 1258 01:13:28,960 --> 01:13:31,360 Speaker 21: what the President gave us, as I said, was a focused, 1259 01:13:31,880 --> 01:13:37,640 Speaker 21: powerful and clear mission on the destruction of Iranian nuclear capabilities. 1260 01:13:37,760 --> 01:13:41,480 Speaker 21: Those are the targets. That's what was struck. That was overwhelming. 1261 01:13:41,760 --> 01:13:44,400 Speaker 21: That's what was overwhelming. That's what the Iranian regime needs 1262 01:13:44,439 --> 01:13:47,800 Speaker 21: to understand. As the President put out last night, he 1263 01:13:47,880 --> 01:13:50,439 Speaker 21: wants peace. There needs to be a negotiated settlement here. 1264 01:13:50,840 --> 01:13:55,000 Speaker 21: We ultimately demonstrated that Iran cannot have a nuclear capability. 1265 01:13:55,080 --> 01:14:00,599 Speaker 22: That is a very clear mission set on this operation. Yes, 1266 01:14:01,120 --> 01:14:04,720 Speaker 22: hold on, yes, right there, Thank you. 1267 01:14:04,680 --> 01:14:09,920 Speaker 28: Mister secretary. Question for the Secretary and the chairman. How 1268 01:14:10,040 --> 01:14:15,400 Speaker 28: was this strike coordinated with the Israelis on a strategic level, 1269 01:14:15,680 --> 01:14:19,799 Speaker 28: militarily and on a tactical level. Was there any direct 1270 01:14:19,960 --> 01:14:23,160 Speaker 28: Israeli military participation in this operation? 1271 01:14:25,600 --> 01:14:32,360 Speaker 21: Well, I would say certainly, Israel had an incredible military success, 1272 01:14:32,479 --> 01:14:37,120 Speaker 21: especially at the beginning and ongoing in degrading Iranian capabilities, 1273 01:14:37,920 --> 01:14:42,559 Speaker 21: degrading Iranian launchers MRBMs. It's been incredible to watch what 1274 01:14:42,640 --> 01:14:45,519 Speaker 21: our ally Israel has been able to do, and there 1275 01:14:45,520 --> 01:14:48,520 Speaker 21: certainly have been conversations. I mean, General Carilla at Sentcom 1276 01:14:49,080 --> 01:14:51,799 Speaker 21: has worked closely in the defense of Israel for many years, 1277 01:14:52,439 --> 01:14:55,880 Speaker 21: and part of this operation was the defensive, visual and 1278 01:14:55,920 --> 01:14:59,080 Speaker 21: the ongoing defense of Israel. But as it pertains to 1279 01:14:59,160 --> 01:15:02,000 Speaker 21: this strike, this was US operated in the US LED. 1280 01:15:03,160 --> 01:15:05,679 Speaker 23: We took advantage of some of the preparatory work that's 1281 01:15:05,720 --> 01:15:08,880 Speaker 23: been done over the past week and a half in 1282 01:15:08,960 --> 01:15:12,400 Speaker 23: terms of access of approach. I won't get into the particulars, 1283 01:15:12,479 --> 01:15:15,719 Speaker 23: but as the Secretary said, it was a US strike, 1284 01:15:17,560 --> 01:15:19,200 Speaker 23: we made sure we were not in the same piece 1285 01:15:19,240 --> 01:15:22,280 Speaker 23: of airspace and sky. Aside from that, that was the 1286 01:15:22,320 --> 01:15:22,960 Speaker 23: extent of it. 1287 01:15:23,920 --> 01:15:26,559 Speaker 22: We'll take a couple more Yeah, right there. 1288 01:15:26,960 --> 01:15:29,760 Speaker 29: Question in the Secretary. First, are you concerned whatsoever now 1289 01:15:29,840 --> 01:15:33,040 Speaker 29: about the reaction from US allies given the strike, particularly 1290 01:15:33,160 --> 01:15:35,639 Speaker 29: those in the Gulf. And to the Chairman, if I may, 1291 01:15:36,439 --> 01:15:39,000 Speaker 29: I understand you don't want to speak to specific assets 1292 01:15:39,200 --> 01:15:41,760 Speaker 29: force protection measures, but do you anticipate at least having 1293 01:15:41,760 --> 01:15:44,920 Speaker 29: to bring in any further assets from other theaters to 1294 01:15:44,960 --> 01:15:46,960 Speaker 29: aid enforced protection over the coming days. 1295 01:15:49,240 --> 01:15:51,519 Speaker 21: We certainly understand the challenges of allies in the region, 1296 01:15:52,040 --> 01:15:55,680 Speaker 21: and we have been respectful and in working in collaboration 1297 01:15:55,800 --> 01:16:01,160 Speaker 21: with them as it pertains to basing and sensitivities there. Ultimately, 1298 01:16:01,479 --> 01:16:04,160 Speaker 21: they've got a lot of assets and people in those locations, 1299 01:16:04,160 --> 01:16:07,080 Speaker 21: also where American troops are co located, so that's a 1300 01:16:07,160 --> 01:16:09,680 Speaker 21: consideration of ours. We've been in close consultation with them 1301 01:16:09,680 --> 01:16:11,599 Speaker 21: when we appreciate the support that we have got. 1302 01:16:12,280 --> 01:16:14,960 Speaker 23: Thanks for the question on sort of the global picture, 1303 01:16:15,040 --> 01:16:17,200 Speaker 23: and as you know, that's one of my jobs is 1304 01:16:17,240 --> 01:16:21,800 Speaker 23: to look globally at the entire range of challenges. We 1305 01:16:21,880 --> 01:16:31,280 Speaker 23: are always carefully considering our force posture and of the President. 1306 01:16:32,320 --> 01:16:35,599 Speaker 23: I won't comment on any future things, but the American 1307 01:16:35,640 --> 01:16:39,799 Speaker 23: people should know that we carefully consider those moves around 1308 01:16:39,840 --> 01:16:44,280 Speaker 23: the world. And try to modulate as needed our force 1309 01:16:44,280 --> 01:16:45,920 Speaker 23: structure in the region. 1310 01:16:46,240 --> 01:16:47,840 Speaker 22: Absolutely, yeah, right here, thank you. 1311 01:16:48,320 --> 01:16:51,200 Speaker 28: What communications are being sent to the Iranians right now 1312 01:16:51,240 --> 01:16:54,080 Speaker 28: and is there any possibility of diplomacy now we're in 1313 01:16:54,120 --> 01:16:54,880 Speaker 28: the coming days. 1314 01:16:56,640 --> 01:16:59,680 Speaker 21: I can only confirm that there are both public and 1315 01:16:59,760 --> 01:17:04,200 Speaker 21: prime messages being directly delivered to the Iranians in multiple channels, 1316 01:17:04,240 --> 01:17:07,760 Speaker 21: giving them every opportunity to come to the table. They 1317 01:17:07,840 --> 01:17:13,160 Speaker 21: understand precisely what the American position is, precisely what steps 1318 01:17:13,200 --> 01:17:15,960 Speaker 21: they can take to allow for peace, and we hope 1319 01:17:15,960 --> 01:17:17,320 Speaker 21: they do so. 1320 01:17:18,479 --> 01:17:22,800 Speaker 22: Yes, the President may not want an open ended conflict. 1321 01:17:23,360 --> 01:17:24,760 Speaker 22: The Iranians may disagree. 1322 01:17:24,960 --> 01:17:26,840 Speaker 14: Are you prepared for protracted war? 1323 01:17:28,320 --> 01:17:31,400 Speaker 22: Well, anything can happen in conflict. We acknowledge that. 1324 01:17:31,479 --> 01:17:34,200 Speaker 21: But the scope of this was intentionally limited. That's the 1325 01:17:34,200 --> 01:17:37,759 Speaker 21: message that we're sending. With the capabilities of the American 1326 01:17:37,760 --> 01:17:42,320 Speaker 21: military nearly unlimited. So Iran in that sense has a choice. 1327 01:17:43,040 --> 01:17:45,640 Speaker 21: But we've made it very clear to them. This is 1328 01:17:45,720 --> 01:17:48,519 Speaker 21: nuclear sites, this is nuclear capabilities. This is the line 1329 01:17:48,520 --> 01:17:52,240 Speaker 21: that the presidents set and we set that back. Now 1330 01:17:52,320 --> 01:17:53,240 Speaker 21: is the time to come. 1331 01:17:53,040 --> 01:17:53,800 Speaker 22: Forward for peace. 1332 01:17:53,840 --> 01:17:56,439 Speaker 21: But we I think but one of the takeaways from 1333 01:17:56,479 --> 01:18:00,360 Speaker 21: this as well is the unpreceded level of ongoing cooper operation. 1334 01:18:00,439 --> 01:18:03,240 Speaker 21: I can't speak highly enough of the Chairman and his 1335 01:18:03,360 --> 01:18:07,960 Speaker 21: staff and General Carilla in Sentcom what they've done to 1336 01:18:07,960 --> 01:18:11,400 Speaker 21: look around the corner to preposition to understand how an 1337 01:18:11,439 --> 01:18:15,120 Speaker 21: operation like this comes together. The scope and scale of 1338 01:18:15,160 --> 01:18:18,200 Speaker 21: what occurred last night would take the breath away of 1339 01:18:18,240 --> 01:18:20,439 Speaker 21: almost any American if you had an opportunity to watch 1340 01:18:20,520 --> 01:18:23,719 Speaker 21: it in real time. And I think Taran is certainly 1341 01:18:23,760 --> 01:18:28,000 Speaker 21: calculating the reality that planes flew from the middle of 1342 01:18:28,040 --> 01:18:31,960 Speaker 21: America and Missouri overnight completely undetected over three of their 1343 01:18:32,200 --> 01:18:35,200 Speaker 21: most highly sensitive sites, and we were able to. 1344 01:18:34,840 --> 01:18:36,800 Speaker 22: Destroy nuclear capabilities. 1345 01:18:37,120 --> 01:18:40,040 Speaker 21: And our boys in those bombers are on their way 1346 01:18:40,040 --> 01:18:43,760 Speaker 21: home right now. We believe that'll have a clear psychological 1347 01:18:43,760 --> 01:18:46,680 Speaker 21: impact on how they view the future, and we certainly. 1348 01:18:46,400 --> 01:18:48,320 Speaker 22: Hope they take the path of negotiated peace. 1349 01:18:48,320 --> 01:18:51,640 Speaker 21: But I could not be more proud of how this 1350 01:18:51,720 --> 01:18:56,320 Speaker 21: building operated, of the precision, the sensitivity, and the. 1351 01:18:56,240 --> 01:18:58,120 Speaker 22: Professionalism of the troops involved in this effort. 1352 01:18:58,200 --> 01:19:00,639 Speaker 21: I will take one more, will take one more question, 1353 01:19:00,720 --> 01:19:03,160 Speaker 21: yes right there, thank you. 1354 01:19:04,360 --> 01:19:05,240 Speaker 14: Mister Secretary. 1355 01:19:05,520 --> 01:19:10,960 Speaker 30: Concerning the justification for these strikes in March, the Office 1356 01:19:11,000 --> 01:19:16,679 Speaker 30: of the Director of National Intelligence released their threat assessments, concluding, quote, 1357 01:19:17,000 --> 01:19:21,160 Speaker 30: Iran is not building a nuclear weapon, and Kamani has 1358 01:19:21,479 --> 01:19:25,639 Speaker 30: not authorized the nuclear programs he suspended in two thousand 1359 01:19:25,640 --> 01:19:29,840 Speaker 30: and three unquote. So what new intelligence does the US 1360 01:19:29,880 --> 01:19:33,400 Speaker 30: have since then that the rants have changed their position 1361 01:19:33,520 --> 01:19:37,360 Speaker 30: on nuclear weapons? And does this new intelligence come from 1362 01:19:37,520 --> 01:19:40,600 Speaker 30: US sources and methods or are we getting this information 1363 01:19:41,360 --> 01:19:42,280 Speaker 30: from other countries? 1364 01:19:43,439 --> 01:19:45,280 Speaker 21: Well, I would just simply say that the President's made 1365 01:19:45,320 --> 01:19:47,640 Speaker 21: it very clear He's looked at all of this, all 1366 01:19:47,680 --> 01:19:50,439 Speaker 21: of the intelligence, all the information, and come to the 1367 01:19:50,479 --> 01:19:55,080 Speaker 21: conclusion that the Iranian nuclear program is a threat and 1368 01:19:55,360 --> 01:19:59,200 Speaker 21: was willing to take this precision operation to neutralize that 1369 01:19:59,280 --> 01:20:02,799 Speaker 21: threat in order to advance American national interests, have reduced 1370 01:20:02,840 --> 01:20:06,080 Speaker 21: the Iranian nuclear program and obviously collective self defense. 1371 01:20:05,800 --> 01:20:06,759 Speaker 22: Of ourself and our allies. 1372 01:20:06,800 --> 01:20:09,120 Speaker 21: So he looked at all of it, understood the nature 1373 01:20:09,120 --> 01:20:11,080 Speaker 21: of the threat, and took bold action. I think the 1374 01:20:11,120 --> 01:20:14,000 Speaker 21: American people would expect in a commander in chief. 1375 01:20:14,320 --> 01:20:15,000 Speaker 22: That's all we've got. 1376 01:20:15,040 --> 01:20:22,320 Speaker 21: Thank you very much, appreciate its chairman, Thank you sure. 1377 01:20:20,880 --> 01:20:22,880 Speaker 14: The WC one thirty five, Can you check over you 1378 01:20:23,000 --> 01:20:24,760 Speaker 14: active material in the atmosphere. 1379 01:20:25,400 --> 01:20:31,479 Speaker 12: Oh, you've been watching live coverage.

You 1393 01:21:06,160 --> 01:21:08,400 Speaker 12: were in the middle of answering my question about how 1394 01:21:08,479 --> 01:21:11,840 Speaker 12: Israel is responding, how israelis are responding not only to 1395 01:21:11,920 --> 01:21:15,000 Speaker 12: the attack last night of the US on the Iranian 1396 01:21:15,080 --> 01:21:19,519 Speaker 12: nuclear sites, but the perceived and expected Iranian response to them. 1397 01:21:19,640 --> 01:21:21,080 Speaker 13: Of course, Israel will be at the tip of the 1398 01:21:21,120 --> 01:21:21,600 Speaker 13: spear of that. 1399 01:21:23,479 --> 01:21:26,080 Speaker 20: Yeah, we are, as I mentioned, grateful to President Trump. 1400 01:21:27,040 --> 01:21:30,240 Speaker 20: Last week, the German Chancellor said that Israel is the 1401 01:21:30,240 --> 01:21:32,840 Speaker 20: one who's doing the dirty work for the entire Western 1402 01:21:32,880 --> 01:21:36,200 Speaker 20: world by taking down the Iranian threat. Last night we 1403 01:21:36,240 --> 01:21:39,559 Speaker 20: saw it's now America who's doing the dirty work for 1404 01:21:39,640 --> 01:21:43,040 Speaker 20: the entire Western world. America is much safer, Israel is 1405 01:21:43,280 --> 01:21:45,439 Speaker 20: much safer today, and so is the rest of the world. 1406 01:21:45,479 --> 01:21:47,120 Speaker 20: So I hope that just as we are in Israel 1407 01:21:47,160 --> 01:21:50,400 Speaker 20: thanking the President and the troops and the United States 1408 01:21:50,439 --> 01:21:53,280 Speaker 20: for doing this, so are other people around the Western world. 1409 01:21:54,800 --> 01:21:58,519 Speaker 12: Gal let's address the elephant in the room, because since 1410 01:21:58,520 --> 01:22:01,280 Speaker 12: the beginning of time, almost certainly since the beginning of 1411 01:22:01,320 --> 01:22:05,040 Speaker 12: this conflict or the rising of the threat from Iran, 1412 01:22:05,680 --> 01:22:07,920 Speaker 12: you've heard the people say that this is just something 1413 01:22:07,960 --> 01:22:12,120 Speaker 12: the United States is doing for quote unquote Israel. Would 1414 01:22:12,120 --> 01:22:13,599 Speaker 12: you like to explain I don't know if you want 1415 01:22:13,640 --> 01:22:17,599 Speaker 12: to explain politics or thermonuclear weapons, because there's no such 1416 01:22:17,680 --> 01:22:21,040 Speaker 12: thing in a nuclear conflict where only one nation the 1417 01:22:21,080 --> 01:22:22,959 Speaker 12: size of New Jersey is going to be affected. 1418 01:22:25,000 --> 01:22:27,960 Speaker 20: Absolutely, and first of all, just a suggestion is insulting 1419 01:22:27,960 --> 01:22:30,679 Speaker 20: to the President of the United States. The President Trump 1420 01:22:31,280 --> 01:22:33,280 Speaker 20: made it clear from the beginning he is going to 1421 01:22:33,320 --> 01:22:36,080 Speaker 20: do what is best for America. Is well expects nothing 1422 01:22:36,080 --> 01:22:39,320 Speaker 20: else out of that. Every country, every leaders needs to 1423 01:22:39,320 --> 01:22:41,080 Speaker 20: do what's best for their country. In President Trump is 1424 01:22:41,080 --> 01:22:45,639 Speaker 20: certainly doing that. But look, Iran having a nuclear bomb 1425 01:22:46,280 --> 01:22:47,599 Speaker 20: doesn't mean that it's only going. 1426 01:22:47,520 --> 01:22:48,719 Speaker 15: To direct it into Israel. 1427 01:22:49,400 --> 01:22:51,920 Speaker 20: It has the delivery capabilities to direct it to the 1428 01:22:52,000 --> 01:22:55,040 Speaker 20: United States, to Europe and elsewhere. And it's not just 1429 01:22:55,320 --> 01:22:57,760 Speaker 20: you know, the fact that you know they're going to 1430 01:22:57,800 --> 01:23:00,200 Speaker 20: launch the bomb, it's the fear of the bomb going 1431 01:23:00,240 --> 01:23:02,720 Speaker 20: to go to football games or baseball games. If there 1432 01:23:02,760 --> 01:23:04,840 Speaker 20: is some sort of a threat of abom Some of 1433 01:23:04,960 --> 01:23:06,880 Speaker 20: us like me who are old enough to remember the 1434 01:23:06,960 --> 01:23:10,439 Speaker 20: nineteen eighties and the threat of a Russian nuclear war, 1435 01:23:11,160 --> 01:23:13,639 Speaker 20: there was a certain degree of tension. Take that by 1436 01:23:13,720 --> 01:23:16,880 Speaker 20: multiple of one hundred. Because Irans Russia the didn't say clearly, 1437 01:23:16,880 --> 01:23:19,759 Speaker 20: we're going to power America, America, We're going to destroy America, 1438 01:23:19,920 --> 01:23:22,519 Speaker 20: We're going to end America. Iran says it's clearly. So 1439 01:23:22,560 --> 01:23:25,960 Speaker 20: the threat of a nuclear run is monumental. The threat 1440 01:23:26,000 --> 01:23:29,760 Speaker 20: of Iran having ballistic missiles, you know, which he already has, 1441 01:23:30,520 --> 01:23:32,920 Speaker 20: is big because the people in the United States and 1442 01:23:32,960 --> 01:23:37,040 Speaker 20: in Europe are watching those Uranian missiles flying into Israeli homes, 1443 01:23:37,080 --> 01:23:40,519 Speaker 20: into Israeli hospitals and destroying them, including this morning, including 1444 01:23:40,520 --> 01:23:44,120 Speaker 20: in my own hometown neighborhood. So you know, we people 1445 01:23:44,200 --> 01:23:48,799 Speaker 20: are watching how those missiles are murdering Jews, are destroying homes, 1446 01:23:48,960 --> 01:23:52,880 Speaker 20: are destroying neighborhoods, and understand that that could be neighborhoods 1447 01:23:52,880 --> 01:23:55,040 Speaker 20: in Europe and later, you know, as Iran continues as 1448 01:23:55,040 --> 01:23:57,200 Speaker 20: programs neighbors neighborhoods in the United States. 1449 01:23:57,400 --> 01:23:58,040 Speaker 15: So this is. 1450 01:23:58,000 --> 01:24:01,800 Speaker 20: A clear and present threat to the United States. As 1451 01:24:01,800 --> 01:24:05,160 Speaker 20: Secretary has said, the President determined that you know, this 1452 01:24:05,200 --> 01:24:05,720 Speaker 20: cannot wait. 1453 01:24:05,760 --> 01:24:07,400 Speaker 15: It needs to be happened now. And that's what happened. 1454 01:24:07,640 --> 01:24:10,960 Speaker 20: And I think everybody should be grateful for the President 1455 01:24:11,439 --> 01:24:14,160 Speaker 20: and for this restoring most of the restoring deterrence. 1456 01:24:14,439 --> 01:24:17,519 Speaker 15: As the Secretary said, yeah. 1457 01:24:17,320 --> 01:24:19,800 Speaker 12: I mean, what we're dealing with here now is a 1458 01:24:19,840 --> 01:24:24,400 Speaker 12: tremendous new paradigm, but not new in the sense that 1459 01:24:24,439 --> 01:24:26,360 Speaker 12: we haven't seen this threat for a long time. 1460 01:24:26,760 --> 01:24:27,599 Speaker 13: You know, I've heard. 1461 01:24:27,400 --> 01:24:30,839 Speaker 12: People say, and David Zier said this that since twenty fifteen, 1462 01:24:30,960 --> 01:24:32,800 Speaker 12: and I know Frank Gafney said it as well, that 1463 01:24:32,880 --> 01:24:35,960 Speaker 12: since twenty fifteen, President Trump has made it clear that 1464 01:24:36,000 --> 01:24:38,559 Speaker 12: Iran could not have a nuclear weapon. I actually saw 1465 01:24:38,600 --> 01:24:43,760 Speaker 12: a statement, guys from him twenty eleven, fourteen years ago, saying. 1466 01:24:43,520 --> 01:24:46,519 Speaker 13: That Iran can never have a nuclear weapon. The idea that. 1467 01:24:46,439 --> 01:24:50,080 Speaker 12: This is something that was pressured onto him by a 1468 01:24:50,120 --> 01:24:53,000 Speaker 12: small foreign country, which isn't even in the top twenty 1469 01:24:53,120 --> 01:24:56,640 Speaker 12: of countries that donate money to American candidates, So that 1470 01:24:56,680 --> 01:24:59,120 Speaker 12: you can't directly do that anyway a foreign nation cannot 1471 01:24:59,120 --> 01:25:04,680 Speaker 12: do that is just ludicrous. Sadly, Muslim Brotherhood and Islamist 1472 01:25:04,680 --> 01:25:09,280 Speaker 12: aligned donors in this country and other countries absolutely dwarf 1473 01:25:09,640 --> 01:25:12,719 Speaker 12: the donations of just about anyone else, let alone another 1474 01:25:12,720 --> 01:25:15,639 Speaker 12: foreign country as small as Israel. So let's just stop 1475 01:25:15,680 --> 01:25:17,840 Speaker 12: with those kinds of that, that kind of talk, and 1476 01:25:17,880 --> 01:25:21,000 Speaker 12: as Gole said, and as and as Gole said, that 1477 01:25:21,240 --> 01:25:24,760 Speaker 12: is a really insulting to President shrub who, of course 1478 01:25:24,840 --> 01:25:27,120 Speaker 12: is in addition to being the most powerful man in 1479 01:25:27,160 --> 01:25:29,000 Speaker 12: the world, is also one of the wealthiest. 1480 01:25:29,040 --> 01:25:30,720 Speaker 13: I want to bring in Mark, Mark. You were here 1481 01:25:30,760 --> 01:25:32,559 Speaker 13: for a lot of this last night. 1482 01:25:32,560 --> 01:25:35,559 Speaker 12: You were talking to with us, Mark, tell us what 1483 01:25:35,600 --> 01:25:38,240 Speaker 12: are some of your, you know, initial reactions not only 1484 01:25:38,280 --> 01:25:41,280 Speaker 12: to this attack, but what you just heard from Secretary 1485 01:25:41,320 --> 01:25:43,320 Speaker 12: heg Seth and General Kane Mark. 1486 01:25:44,160 --> 01:25:46,040 Speaker 31: Sure, good morning, Jake and everyone. 1487 01:25:46,280 --> 01:25:51,719 Speaker 32: Look, obviously, Secretary HeiG sith and and the Chairman laid 1488 01:25:51,720 --> 01:25:56,439 Speaker 32: out what was a brilliantly executed military plan. I mean, 1489 01:25:56,520 --> 01:26:01,719 Speaker 32: imagine you know, these pilots on B two by flying 1490 01:26:01,800 --> 01:26:08,640 Speaker 32: eighteen hours undetected mid air refuelings to reach their targets. 1491 01:26:09,120 --> 01:26:12,040 Speaker 31: It was brilliant. It was amazing. 1492 01:26:12,840 --> 01:26:15,960 Speaker 32: American military might is the best in the world. And 1493 01:26:16,040 --> 01:26:21,559 Speaker 32: Donald Trump is clearly leading with his commitment to peace 1494 01:26:21,600 --> 01:26:25,800 Speaker 32: through strength. Look, this is not ideal in a lot 1495 01:26:25,840 --> 01:26:28,439 Speaker 32: of ways that we had to be put in this position. 1496 01:26:28,920 --> 01:26:32,320 Speaker 32: And I think there are some neo cons on the 1497 01:26:32,360 --> 01:26:35,240 Speaker 32: right who are thrilled today. There are some gi Hottis 1498 01:26:35,760 --> 01:26:40,479 Speaker 32: who are ready to seek revenge against us. So I 1499 01:26:40,520 --> 01:26:43,760 Speaker 32: think there are consequences ahead. Who knows what this means, 1500 01:26:43,800 --> 01:26:49,479 Speaker 32: for instance, for Syria or for Afghanistan hopefully, and I 1501 01:26:49,560 --> 01:26:54,240 Speaker 32: believe that this sends a signal that we want peace 1502 01:26:54,640 --> 01:26:56,600 Speaker 32: and Donald Trump's going to do whatever it takes to 1503 01:26:56,640 --> 01:26:59,559 Speaker 32: reach peace. Remember on the tarmac in Marristown, New Jersey, 1504 01:26:59,600 --> 01:27:03,120 Speaker 32: on Friday, he said, I'm a peacemaker, but sometimes you 1505 01:27:03,200 --> 01:27:06,559 Speaker 32: have to show strength to achieve peace. And Donald Trump 1506 01:27:06,680 --> 01:27:11,120 Speaker 32: clearly put those words into action last night. Look at 1507 01:27:11,160 --> 01:27:14,880 Speaker 32: the bottom line is I trust Donald Trump. I trust 1508 01:27:14,880 --> 01:27:18,720 Speaker 32: this president to lead America. He's got insights and information 1509 01:27:18,800 --> 01:27:22,880 Speaker 32: and intelligence that we don't have access to. And ultimately 1510 01:27:23,280 --> 01:27:26,400 Speaker 32: I trust the leadership of President Trump and believe in 1511 01:27:26,439 --> 01:27:30,760 Speaker 32: what he's doing. But for certain it's going to be 1512 01:27:32,040 --> 01:27:35,840 Speaker 32: a time where the consequences are yet to be seen. 1513 01:27:36,200 --> 01:27:41,680 Speaker 32: Hopefully the Iranians will realize their nuclear capabilities are decimated. 1514 01:27:41,960 --> 01:27:45,680 Speaker 32: They're gone, and they don't have that capability anymore to 1515 01:27:45,880 --> 01:27:48,880 Speaker 32: use against the Middle East, Israel and the rest of 1516 01:27:48,880 --> 01:27:49,320 Speaker 32: the world. 1517 01:27:50,680 --> 01:27:50,920 Speaker 13: Yeah. 1518 01:27:50,960 --> 01:27:54,160 Speaker 12: You know, as a number of those journalists who did 1519 01:27:54,160 --> 01:27:56,000 Speaker 12: ask a good question, they wanted to know about the 1520 01:27:56,000 --> 01:28:00,160 Speaker 12: battle damage assessment on the sites in Iran, And of 1521 01:28:00,160 --> 01:28:04,080 Speaker 12: course we weren't given anything definitive for understandable reasons from 1522 01:28:04,120 --> 01:28:06,880 Speaker 12: General Kine. But we do have video that was taken 1523 01:28:06,920 --> 01:28:10,040 Speaker 12: presumably by Iranians. Now a fowar down now for down 1524 01:28:10,120 --> 01:28:12,160 Speaker 12: is a remote site, but it's not all that remote. 1525 01:28:12,160 --> 01:28:14,599 Speaker 12: There is a highway where the site can be seen 1526 01:28:14,680 --> 01:28:17,040 Speaker 12: from and if you take a look at this video, now, look, 1527 01:28:17,080 --> 01:28:21,760 Speaker 12: obviously you could have very spectacular fires and very spectacular 1528 01:28:21,840 --> 01:28:26,639 Speaker 12: video and smoke from something that still is not completely destroyed. Again, 1529 01:28:26,680 --> 01:28:29,479 Speaker 12: I know that's redundant, it's not totally taken out. However, 1530 01:28:29,960 --> 01:28:33,360 Speaker 12: that looks bad. Guys, I mean, Frank Gaffney, look at 1531 01:28:33,360 --> 01:28:38,240 Speaker 12: that explosion. I can't believe maybe they didn't destroy everything 1532 01:28:38,320 --> 01:28:41,760 Speaker 12: underground there, but I can't believe that humans anywhere near 1533 01:28:41,840 --> 01:28:44,280 Speaker 12: that site can get anywhere near that site in the 1534 01:28:44,280 --> 01:28:47,000 Speaker 12: coming days or weeks or months or maybe even years. 1535 01:28:47,320 --> 01:28:50,840 Speaker 12: This feels very, very, very devastating to me as I 1536 01:28:50,880 --> 01:28:52,559 Speaker 12: look at that video. I don't think I need to 1537 01:28:52,600 --> 01:28:55,280 Speaker 12: be too much of a military expert to say that 1538 01:28:55,439 --> 01:28:56,519 Speaker 12: looks pretty devastating. 1539 01:28:56,520 --> 01:28:59,760 Speaker 14: What do you think, Frank, I have no wing to 1540 01:28:59,800 --> 01:29:02,120 Speaker 14: be a way of judging it, but I think your 1541 01:29:02,160 --> 01:29:07,679 Speaker 14: gut instinct is right. And what almost certainly happened. Whether 1542 01:29:08,200 --> 01:29:18,240 Speaker 14: every single part of that deeply buried facility was destroyed 1543 01:29:18,240 --> 01:29:21,000 Speaker 14: in the sense of being blown up, I have to 1544 01:29:21,080 --> 01:29:28,760 Speaker 14: believe that it's now at best a sealed mausoleum for 1545 01:29:28,840 --> 01:29:31,840 Speaker 14: those who were working in it. They're not going anywhere 1546 01:29:32,200 --> 01:29:35,559 Speaker 14: if they didn't actually die in the immediate attack. And 1547 01:29:35,640 --> 01:29:39,519 Speaker 14: it speaks again to something that we talked about earlier, Jake, 1548 01:29:39,520 --> 01:29:45,479 Speaker 14: excuse me, namely the extent to which we were able 1549 01:29:45,680 --> 01:29:51,160 Speaker 14: on the basis of very important intelligence. Some of it, 1550 01:29:51,280 --> 01:29:53,840 Speaker 14: I'm quite certain came from Israel, and I'd like to 1551 01:29:53,880 --> 01:29:56,479 Speaker 14: think some of it came from our own sources. But 1552 01:29:56,680 --> 01:30:00,160 Speaker 14: it just it strains credulity. And one of the US 1553 01:30:00,280 --> 01:30:04,879 Speaker 14: guys asked this question, what about this statement that the 1554 01:30:05,120 --> 01:30:09,640 Speaker 14: United States intelligence community, as best I can tell, continues 1555 01:30:10,120 --> 01:30:14,040 Speaker 14: stand by that they didn't have a program. They gave 1556 01:30:14,080 --> 01:30:17,559 Speaker 14: it up in two thousand and three, and there's simply 1557 01:30:17,600 --> 01:30:22,040 Speaker 14: no evidence that they were moving forward with particularly imminent 1558 01:30:22,120 --> 01:30:25,800 Speaker 14: nuclear weapons program. The President quite rightly said the other 1559 01:30:25,920 --> 01:30:30,240 Speaker 14: day he doesn't agree with that. He said Tulsea Gabbard 1560 01:30:30,400 --> 01:30:34,639 Speaker 14: was wrong, and Pete Hegseth today I think reinforced the point. 1561 01:30:35,080 --> 01:30:38,559 Speaker 14: And everybody looking at that battle damage over the coming 1562 01:30:38,640 --> 01:30:41,160 Speaker 14: days is going to have, I think the kind of 1563 01:30:41,280 --> 01:30:44,160 Speaker 14: questions that I have, which is, what on earth has 1564 01:30:44,200 --> 01:30:47,400 Speaker 14: been going on with US intelligence and this connection. 1565 01:30:48,720 --> 01:30:51,840 Speaker 12: Yeah, David Zierr, you're in Washington, DC. You can already 1566 01:30:51,880 --> 01:30:55,759 Speaker 12: see some of the Democrats coming out taking that line, 1567 01:30:56,400 --> 01:30:59,519 Speaker 12: talking about how this was unprovoked, talking about how this 1568 01:30:59,720 --> 01:31:04,960 Speaker 12: was not necessary, talking about impeaching President Trump. I mean, 1569 01:31:05,160 --> 01:31:08,840 Speaker 12: we've talked about for weeks now the insane hills the 1570 01:31:08,880 --> 01:31:11,960 Speaker 12: Democrats have decided to die on in their battles against 1571 01:31:12,000 --> 01:31:15,280 Speaker 12: President Trump. Hills that include going over to El Salvador, sorry, 1572 01:31:15,320 --> 01:31:17,519 Speaker 12: and you know, in those places like El Salvador and 1573 01:31:17,640 --> 01:31:23,479 Speaker 12: meeting with an accused human trafficker, sitting in detention centers 1574 01:31:23,760 --> 01:31:26,360 Speaker 12: with people who have been in college for seventeen years, 1575 01:31:26,560 --> 01:31:28,559 Speaker 12: and harassing Jewish students on campus. 1576 01:31:28,640 --> 01:31:30,920 Speaker 13: These are the people who are their heroes. Are they 1577 01:31:30,960 --> 01:31:34,240 Speaker 13: going to die on yet another hill here in favor 1578 01:31:34,320 --> 01:31:37,960 Speaker 13: of Iran? I mean, is there any level to which 1579 01:31:38,000 --> 01:31:41,439 Speaker 13: these Democrats won't stoop to attack President Trump? 1580 01:31:41,439 --> 01:31:43,400 Speaker 12: If he says two plus two equals four? Will they 1581 01:31:43,439 --> 01:31:46,200 Speaker 12: have a violent protest to say it's five? Because we're 1582 01:31:46,200 --> 01:31:47,560 Speaker 12: getting in that territory, aren't we? 1583 01:31:47,640 --> 01:31:52,040 Speaker 16: David ziir Yeah, And Iranian media was playing AOC last 1584 01:31:52,120 --> 01:31:55,000 Speaker 16: night on X you know, with her comments that Trump 1585 01:31:55,040 --> 01:31:58,080 Speaker 16: should be impeached, and they were also saying that there 1586 01:31:58,120 --> 01:32:02,640 Speaker 16: were just tunnel entrances, damage to snow damage these facilities 1587 01:32:03,080 --> 01:32:03,719 Speaker 16: of that video. 1588 01:32:04,040 --> 01:32:05,280 Speaker 19: I would beg to differ with that. 1589 01:32:05,439 --> 01:32:07,639 Speaker 16: Just seeing that, but there's been a lot of first 1590 01:32:07,800 --> 01:32:10,599 Speaker 16: under Donald Trump. I just wanted to add, you know, 1591 01:32:10,640 --> 01:32:13,719 Speaker 16: these seven B two bombers eighteen hour flights with multiple 1592 01:32:13,720 --> 01:32:14,720 Speaker 16: inflight refuelings. 1593 01:32:15,439 --> 01:32:16,200 Speaker 19: It was no. 1594 01:32:16,200 --> 01:32:18,759 Speaker 16: Shots fired at them during the strike package. They dropped 1595 01:32:18,800 --> 01:32:22,879 Speaker 16: four hundred and twenty thousand pounds of bombs on these targets, 1596 01:32:23,160 --> 01:32:27,000 Speaker 16: not including all the Tea LAMB one thousand war pound warheads. 1597 01:32:27,479 --> 01:32:30,439 Speaker 16: Tomahawks were a thirteen hundred mile range. And this was 1598 01:32:30,479 --> 01:32:34,000 Speaker 16: the longest B two Spirit mission since two thousand and one, 1599 01:32:34,280 --> 01:32:36,200 Speaker 16: when the B two is from the five h ninth 1600 01:32:36,479 --> 01:32:39,479 Speaker 16: Bomb Wing and Whiteman Air Force Base flew three days 1601 01:32:39,479 --> 01:32:43,559 Speaker 16: of missions forty four hour missions in Afghanistan in the 1602 01:32:43,600 --> 01:32:47,559 Speaker 16: early days of the Operation Enduring Freedom. And I just 1603 01:32:47,600 --> 01:32:50,200 Speaker 16: wanted to add Trump, there's a lot of first under Trump. 1604 01:32:50,360 --> 01:32:53,280 Speaker 16: This is the biggest use of conventional munitions ever. But 1605 01:32:53,400 --> 01:32:57,320 Speaker 16: up until this point this year, the largest ever aircraft 1606 01:32:57,520 --> 01:33:01,960 Speaker 16: carrier launched strike was off the USS Harry S. Truman 1607 01:33:02,840 --> 01:33:07,519 Speaker 16: over there and sixteen f eighteen's took off and bombed 1608 01:33:07,600 --> 01:33:11,760 Speaker 16: Al Shabab and ISIS operatives in a cave network in 1609 01:33:11,800 --> 01:33:16,479 Speaker 16: Somalia with one hundred and twenty five pounds of conventional bombs. 1610 01:33:17,120 --> 01:33:20,720 Speaker 16: So Trump making easy work of radical terrorists. Maybe so, 1611 01:33:20,760 --> 01:33:26,519 Speaker 16: maybe we're not entrenched in forever wars. Very serious stuff here, 1612 01:33:26,720 --> 01:33:29,800 Speaker 16: and you know, we've been hitting al Shabab all week 1613 01:33:29,840 --> 01:33:33,240 Speaker 16: and hasn't got media attention. And isis in Somalia on 1614 01:33:33,320 --> 01:33:37,080 Speaker 16: June fourteenth to fifteenth, the sixteenth, and maybe more so. 1615 01:33:37,960 --> 01:33:41,360 Speaker 16: These types of strikes may be ongoing. But this mission 1616 01:33:41,720 --> 01:33:44,559 Speaker 16: was just an incredible feat. 1617 01:33:44,760 --> 01:33:46,400 Speaker 12: And one of the first things we learned in this 1618 01:33:46,439 --> 01:33:49,280 Speaker 12: news conference today was the name of the mission, Operation 1619 01:33:49,880 --> 01:33:50,679 Speaker 12: Midnight Hammer. 1620 01:33:50,720 --> 01:33:51,439 Speaker 13: Remember that name. 1621 01:33:51,439 --> 01:33:54,320 Speaker 12: You're watching live coverage here on Real America's Voice on 1622 01:33:54,600 --> 01:33:55,920 Speaker 12: Operation Midnight Hammer. 1623 01:33:56,200 --> 01:33:58,800 Speaker 13: We'll continue with more live coverage and we come right back. 1624 01:34:09,520 --> 01:34:13,920 Speaker 2: Very carried out massive precision strikes on the three key 1625 01:34:14,320 --> 01:34:20,000 Speaker 2: nuclear facilities in the Iranian regime. God bless the Middle East, 1626 01:34:20,160 --> 01:34:23,280 Speaker 2: God bless Israel, and God bless America. 1627 01:34:23,360 --> 01:34:28,639 Speaker 13: Thank you very much, Operation Midnight Hammer. 1628 01:34:28,680 --> 01:34:30,719 Speaker 12: You're looking at a live shot of the Old City 1629 01:34:30,720 --> 01:34:33,640 Speaker 12: of Jerusalem, that is the western wall in the foreground, 1630 01:34:34,680 --> 01:34:37,160 Speaker 12: and of course the skies of a Jerusalem will be 1631 01:34:37,600 --> 01:34:40,200 Speaker 12: a focal point today as the world looks to see 1632 01:34:40,240 --> 01:34:43,760 Speaker 12: what kind of response Israel will take. There were Iranian 1633 01:34:43,760 --> 01:34:47,320 Speaker 12: missile and drone launches overnight. Eighty six people were injured, 1634 01:34:47,360 --> 01:34:50,599 Speaker 12: all but one of them light injuries, that Iran still 1635 01:34:50,600 --> 01:34:53,639 Speaker 12: has some missile firing capabilities, although Israel is working very 1636 01:34:53,640 --> 01:34:56,679 Speaker 12: hard to take them out, and the United States taking 1637 01:34:56,720 --> 01:34:59,800 Speaker 12: out those nuclear facilities. Last evening, I want to bring 1638 01:34:59,800 --> 01:35:02,280 Speaker 12: in a panel. We have Frank Gaffney from Securing America. 1639 01:35:02,479 --> 01:35:05,280 Speaker 12: We have Mark Serrano, a RAP contributor. We have David 1640 01:35:05,360 --> 01:35:09,560 Speaker 12: Zeer in Washington, and we also have Gal Khalev from Jerusalem. 1641 01:35:09,920 --> 01:35:11,840 Speaker 12: I don't want to go to Mark first. Mark, you're 1642 01:35:11,880 --> 01:35:15,200 Speaker 12: a messaging expert. And something I said a while ago 1643 01:35:15,280 --> 01:35:17,920 Speaker 12: this morning was that you can have all the military 1644 01:35:17,960 --> 01:35:20,800 Speaker 12: expertise in the world, all the military advantages in the world, 1645 01:35:20,920 --> 01:35:23,040 Speaker 12: you can have all the political capital in the world, 1646 01:35:23,160 --> 01:35:25,400 Speaker 12: but if you don't have a leader who explains to 1647 01:35:25,439 --> 01:35:29,280 Speaker 12: the American people exactly what is going on why he 1648 01:35:29,320 --> 01:35:31,920 Speaker 12: has put our troops in harm's way. Although I do 1649 01:35:32,000 --> 01:35:34,719 Speaker 12: think this is a minor risk, et cetera, et cetera, 1650 01:35:34,920 --> 01:35:36,719 Speaker 12: then it doesn't matter. You have to have a leader 1651 01:35:36,720 --> 01:35:41,040 Speaker 12: who can really articulate these things. With all due respect, 1652 01:35:41,160 --> 01:35:43,840 Speaker 12: I don't think President George W. Bush did that as 1653 01:35:43,840 --> 01:35:46,240 Speaker 12: well as he could have. During the Global War on Terror. 1654 01:35:46,520 --> 01:35:49,240 Speaker 12: I think President Trump last night again love him or 1655 01:35:49,240 --> 01:35:51,559 Speaker 12: hate him. Couldn't have been clearer, and couldn't have been 1656 01:35:51,560 --> 01:35:55,920 Speaker 12: standing on strong stronger moral ground and rhetorical ground. He 1657 01:35:55,960 --> 01:35:59,080 Speaker 12: was very clear with the American public, Mark sure Jake. 1658 01:35:59,120 --> 01:36:02,080 Speaker 32: Look at the psychologue warfare that Donald Trump used all 1659 01:36:02,080 --> 01:36:04,640 Speaker 32: week long. Well, I might bomb them, I might not 1660 01:36:04,800 --> 01:36:07,400 Speaker 32: bomb them. You know, we're going to take two weeks 1661 01:36:07,400 --> 01:36:09,000 Speaker 32: and give Iran a chance. 1662 01:36:08,800 --> 01:36:11,719 Speaker 31: To come to it. Sences. You know, he's the. 1663 01:36:11,560 --> 01:36:17,320 Speaker 32: Master of psychological warfare, and he employed that all week long, 1664 01:36:18,080 --> 01:36:20,360 Speaker 32: and in fact, you know, you had some of these 1665 01:36:20,400 --> 01:36:23,519 Speaker 32: B two bombers that were shown going to Guam, which 1666 01:36:23,560 --> 01:36:28,960 Speaker 32: obviously was a feint to driver one's attention that way. 1667 01:36:29,960 --> 01:36:33,200 Speaker 32: But he's also I think something for us to take 1668 01:36:33,200 --> 01:36:37,839 Speaker 32: a look at is, if you consider this past decade 1669 01:36:37,840 --> 01:36:44,880 Speaker 32: in America, Donald Trump has completely reconfigured American politics. He's 1670 01:36:44,880 --> 01:36:47,800 Speaker 32: flipped it on its head where the elites are no 1671 01:36:47,880 --> 01:36:50,400 Speaker 32: longer in power. He's done it with the news media, 1672 01:36:50,800 --> 01:36:55,800 Speaker 32: where new media like Real America's voice is now obviously 1673 01:36:55,920 --> 01:36:59,679 Speaker 32: on the rise, and legacy media, corporate media, they're completely 1674 01:36:59,720 --> 01:37:02,840 Speaker 32: disc credited. Well, Donald Trump also and he did this 1675 01:37:02,920 --> 01:37:05,960 Speaker 32: in his first term brilliantly. He was able to use 1676 01:37:06,000 --> 01:37:10,400 Speaker 32: economic leverage against our adversaries worldwide like no one has 1677 01:37:10,439 --> 01:37:13,799 Speaker 32: ever done before, which is why he uses peace through strength. 1678 01:37:14,080 --> 01:37:15,639 Speaker 31: He's not looking for a new war. 1679 01:37:16,160 --> 01:37:19,960 Speaker 32: And now I think what we're seeing potentially here is 1680 01:37:20,000 --> 01:37:25,320 Speaker 32: Donald Trump also redefining warfare where he was very limited. 1681 01:37:25,600 --> 01:37:28,679 Speaker 32: He was very restrained, just like he did in Syria 1682 01:37:28,680 --> 01:37:33,360 Speaker 32: in his first term, very very strategic strikes, very limited, 1683 01:37:33,640 --> 01:37:37,599 Speaker 32: very restrained. So he hopefully can get the effect he's seeking, 1684 01:37:37,960 --> 01:37:41,880 Speaker 32: which is eliminate the nuclear capability of Iran, get them 1685 01:37:41,880 --> 01:37:44,479 Speaker 32: to the table to negotiate peace, so that way we 1686 01:37:44,520 --> 01:37:46,800 Speaker 32: can see peace throughout the Middle East. One other thing 1687 01:37:46,840 --> 01:37:50,120 Speaker 32: about this, Jake, if you remember, in President Trump's first term, 1688 01:37:50,360 --> 01:37:54,160 Speaker 32: his first trip overseas in May of twenty seventeen was 1689 01:37:54,240 --> 01:37:57,440 Speaker 32: to the Middle East to address all the leaders. 1690 01:37:57,200 --> 01:37:58,640 Speaker 31: Of the Middle East. And what did he do in 1691 01:37:58,680 --> 01:37:59,200 Speaker 31: that meeting? 1692 01:37:59,240 --> 01:38:02,720 Speaker 32: In that conference, he said, Look, we can continue to 1693 01:38:02,760 --> 01:38:05,280 Speaker 32: fight over all of our differences, but why don't we 1694 01:38:05,400 --> 01:38:08,479 Speaker 32: all come to terms on something we can agree on, 1695 01:38:09,000 --> 01:38:11,400 Speaker 32: which is we've got to be opposed all of us, 1696 01:38:11,640 --> 01:38:15,160 Speaker 32: the United States, our allies, the entire Middle East, all 1697 01:38:15,240 --> 01:38:18,000 Speaker 32: of the moderate Arab nations. They all agreed on one thing. 1698 01:38:18,360 --> 01:38:21,360 Speaker 32: We can't have a nuclear Iran. That was in May 1699 01:38:21,479 --> 01:38:25,320 Speaker 32: of twenty seventeen. His first international trip as president was 1700 01:38:25,360 --> 01:38:28,479 Speaker 32: to deliver that message that says, we must all agree 1701 01:38:28,600 --> 01:38:30,120 Speaker 32: there can't be a nuclear Iran. 1702 01:38:32,240 --> 01:38:36,040 Speaker 12: Mark I want to bring in now Kalev from Jerusalem 1703 01:38:36,960 --> 01:38:41,519 Speaker 12: gal On Thursday, when the President announced and Carolyn Levin 1704 01:38:41,560 --> 01:38:45,360 Speaker 12: announced that within two weeks decision, there were a number 1705 01:38:45,400 --> 01:38:48,640 Speaker 12: of enemies of Israel, both overseas and even here in 1706 01:38:48,640 --> 01:38:51,080 Speaker 12: the United States who were dancing a little jig. 1707 01:38:51,120 --> 01:38:52,840 Speaker 13: They were patting themselves in the back. 1708 01:38:53,000 --> 01:38:56,320 Speaker 12: They thought they had dissuaded President Trump and stopped him 1709 01:38:56,360 --> 01:38:58,760 Speaker 12: from standing up decisively. And the first thing that came 1710 01:38:58,800 --> 01:39:02,240 Speaker 12: to my mind was an Israeli phrase was you friars 1711 01:39:02,640 --> 01:39:05,840 Speaker 12: in Israeli a parlance that basically means you suckers. You 1712 01:39:05,920 --> 01:39:08,240 Speaker 12: really believe they're going to give get two weeks? I 1713 01:39:08,320 --> 01:39:09,800 Speaker 12: think we all, a lot of us knew it was 1714 01:39:09,840 --> 01:39:12,799 Speaker 12: going to be two days. And God, was there any 1715 01:39:12,960 --> 01:39:16,040 Speaker 12: thought in Israel on Thursday to Saturday that, oh, no, 1716 01:39:16,200 --> 01:39:17,880 Speaker 12: we've lost our friend President Trump. 1717 01:39:19,320 --> 01:39:20,120 Speaker 15: No, absolutely not. 1718 01:39:20,240 --> 01:39:22,120 Speaker 20: I mean the President Trump continues to provide us with 1719 01:39:22,200 --> 01:39:25,360 Speaker 20: ammunition and the support. There was thought that maybe we 1720 01:39:25,400 --> 01:39:27,479 Speaker 20: need to do this by ourselves, and this will take 1721 01:39:27,520 --> 01:39:29,720 Speaker 20: longer at a higher price. And we were prepared to 1722 01:39:29,760 --> 01:39:31,800 Speaker 20: do that because our Defense document has always been that 1723 01:39:31,840 --> 01:39:34,880 Speaker 20: we want to defend ourselves by ourselves. There's certain things 1724 01:39:34,880 --> 01:39:37,000 Speaker 20: we cannot do, so we've very you know this, this 1725 01:39:37,040 --> 01:39:38,320 Speaker 20: is obviously a game changer. 1726 01:39:38,640 --> 01:39:41,599 Speaker 15: But I think what you alluded to earlier is that 1727 01:39:41,640 --> 01:39:44,240 Speaker 15: we in Israel are really facing a dual threat. 1728 01:39:44,720 --> 01:39:47,120 Speaker 20: There's the physical threat that we've been facing from Iran 1729 01:39:47,200 --> 01:39:50,040 Speaker 20: and its proxies, which is much weaker now, you know, 1730 01:39:50,120 --> 01:39:53,400 Speaker 20: after we've taken down some of its proxies in Gaza, 1731 01:39:53,680 --> 01:39:57,439 Speaker 20: you know, in Syria, and certainly after what President Trump 1732 01:39:57,520 --> 01:40:00,160 Speaker 20: did today. But there's also a secondary threat, which is 1733 01:40:00,160 --> 01:40:03,840 Speaker 20: the ideological threat coming from Europe and its proxies. And 1734 01:40:03,880 --> 01:40:06,400 Speaker 20: what you said earlier is right on messages. There is 1735 01:40:06,560 --> 01:40:08,280 Speaker 20: you know, if you look at the Democratic Party, all 1736 01:40:08,280 --> 01:40:10,639 Speaker 20: of a sudden, over the last few years, there's been very, 1737 01:40:10,720 --> 01:40:12,479 Speaker 20: very strong anti Israel messages. 1738 01:40:12,880 --> 01:40:14,840 Speaker 15: We're in the midst of an attempt. 1739 01:40:14,479 --> 01:40:17,400 Speaker 20: To negate the whole idea of the Jewish state and 1740 01:40:17,439 --> 01:40:19,639 Speaker 20: through it, to negay the idea of Judaism. And we've 1741 01:40:19,640 --> 01:40:23,040 Speaker 20: seen it across the board and we see it sadly 1742 01:40:23,120 --> 01:40:27,439 Speaker 20: in the way that democratic money is being reflected. Years ago, 1743 01:40:28,000 --> 01:40:30,360 Speaker 20: if you were running for Congress, you need to make 1744 01:40:30,920 --> 01:40:33,920 Speaker 20: all sorts of strong statements about how you support Israel. 1745 01:40:34,160 --> 01:40:36,360 Speaker 20: And now if you're running for Congress as a Democrat 1746 01:40:36,640 --> 01:40:39,840 Speaker 20: to get funding, you need to make all support how 1747 01:40:39,920 --> 01:40:42,639 Speaker 20: Israel is the bad guy, how you oppose this and that. 1748 01:40:43,280 --> 01:40:44,640 Speaker 20: So I think what we're going to see out of 1749 01:40:44,680 --> 01:40:49,400 Speaker 20: it is not just you know, the President Trump revolutionized warfare. 1750 01:40:49,520 --> 01:40:54,200 Speaker 20: I completely agree with that, but I think it's also 1751 01:40:54,280 --> 01:40:57,840 Speaker 20: going to revolutionize the peace thinking in the Middle East, 1752 01:40:58,040 --> 01:40:59,960 Speaker 20: which until now was very defensive. 1753 01:41:00,280 --> 01:41:02,800 Speaker 15: Ability defeat is oh well, devide the baby. 1754 01:41:03,040 --> 01:41:04,840 Speaker 20: I will give you this land if you if you 1755 01:41:05,040 --> 01:41:07,040 Speaker 20: if you agree, you know, not to attack us for 1756 01:41:07,040 --> 01:41:09,280 Speaker 20: a few years, we'll beg you a bit harder. I 1757 01:41:09,280 --> 01:41:11,719 Speaker 20: think President Trump, with this consols of peace to strength, 1758 01:41:12,400 --> 01:41:15,880 Speaker 20: is changing that. And we're going to move from UH 1759 01:41:16,080 --> 01:41:19,960 Speaker 20: silly slogan based frameworks like two state solutions UH to 1760 01:41:20,439 --> 01:41:22,479 Speaker 20: frameworks that are based on win win like the abrams 1761 01:41:22,479 --> 01:41:26,120 Speaker 20: AC courts, under the President's leadership, where all parties can benefit. 1762 01:41:26,320 --> 01:41:28,519 Speaker 20: What we've seen today is both the ability of the 1763 01:41:28,600 --> 01:41:31,759 Speaker 20: United States to exert power, so that so as as 1764 01:41:32,040 --> 01:41:35,640 Speaker 20: we said, first first come strength, then comes peace, but 1765 01:41:35,840 --> 01:41:39,080 Speaker 20: also to remove a threat that will enable other actors 1766 01:41:39,520 --> 01:41:42,800 Speaker 20: to make peace on a totally different UH basis and 1767 01:41:42,880 --> 01:41:44,599 Speaker 20: frameworks than we will used to until now. 1768 01:41:45,680 --> 01:41:48,200 Speaker 13: Yeah, David Zierr, you're in Washington, d C. 1769 01:41:49,200 --> 01:41:52,760 Speaker 12: And we've talked about this already during this program a 1770 01:41:52,760 --> 01:41:55,400 Speaker 12: little bit about how the Democrats seem to now starting. 1771 01:41:55,400 --> 01:41:56,400 Speaker 13: I mean, I thought that as. 1772 01:41:56,240 --> 01:41:59,320 Speaker 12: The hours rolled by this morning, we would see a 1773 01:41:59,360 --> 01:42:02,200 Speaker 12: few more Democrats come out and support of the attack 1774 01:42:02,240 --> 01:42:02,639 Speaker 12: on Iran. 1775 01:42:02,680 --> 01:42:03,679 Speaker 13: It looks like I was wrong. 1776 01:42:03,840 --> 01:42:05,920 Speaker 12: I'm seeing more and more of them deciding to take 1777 01:42:05,920 --> 01:42:10,280 Speaker 12: what I believe is a politically suicidal stance against these attacks. 1778 01:42:10,479 --> 01:42:13,760 Speaker 12: They come out sounding very much supportive of Iran. They'll 1779 01:42:13,760 --> 01:42:15,639 Speaker 12: claim that they're not, but at the same time they're 1780 01:42:15,680 --> 01:42:18,320 Speaker 12: trying to straddle that fence. 1781 01:42:18,439 --> 01:42:23,240 Speaker 13: David, Look, this is I can't believe. Let's put it 1782 01:42:23,240 --> 01:42:25,400 Speaker 13: this way. I can't believe how. 1783 01:42:25,200 --> 01:42:28,960 Speaker 12: Easy President Trump's enemies in this country are making it 1784 01:42:29,000 --> 01:42:32,360 Speaker 12: for him. If you're telling me that the choices between 1785 01:42:32,400 --> 01:42:36,000 Speaker 12: them and their support of illegal aliens, their support of 1786 01:42:36,080 --> 01:42:40,200 Speaker 12: human traffickers, their support of Iran, their support of Ramas 1787 01:42:40,479 --> 01:42:43,360 Speaker 12: they're supportive people who are harassing people on college campuses, 1788 01:42:43,439 --> 01:42:45,679 Speaker 12: and the people that they're not harassling are still having 1789 01:42:45,720 --> 01:42:46,639 Speaker 12: a hard time get. 1790 01:42:46,479 --> 01:42:47,839 Speaker 13: To class, getting to class. 1791 01:42:48,360 --> 01:42:51,720 Speaker 12: How can you not begrudgingly support President Trump? This is 1792 01:42:51,720 --> 01:42:54,800 Speaker 12: why his approval rating in the only survey I really 1793 01:42:54,840 --> 01:42:59,040 Speaker 12: trust Scott Rasmussen Nepolitan News, who had President Trump's approval 1794 01:42:59,040 --> 01:43:01,599 Speaker 12: before this attack at fifty three percent. I think it's 1795 01:43:01,640 --> 01:43:03,760 Speaker 12: going to be in the high fifties next time he 1796 01:43:04,120 --> 01:43:07,200 Speaker 12: does a survey in a week, David, they can't be 1797 01:43:07,320 --> 01:43:09,479 Speaker 12: making it this easy for President Trump, are they? 1798 01:43:11,560 --> 01:43:13,200 Speaker 19: I think they are making it that easy. 1799 01:43:13,280 --> 01:43:15,439 Speaker 16: And just to draw a comparison, you know, you were 1800 01:43:15,479 --> 01:43:18,360 Speaker 16: joking during the break, Brandon Jarvis a very talented camera 1801 01:43:18,400 --> 01:43:21,479 Speaker 16: and sent me a meme of palettes of cash, you know, 1802 01:43:22,000 --> 01:43:26,439 Speaker 16: next to Trump talking to the Supreme Iatola and I 1803 01:43:26,520 --> 01:43:28,120 Speaker 16: ran and he said how much do you want? He 1804 01:43:28,160 --> 01:43:31,599 Speaker 16: said billions? So and you know, instead of pallets of cash, 1805 01:43:31,640 --> 01:43:34,720 Speaker 16: he sent, you know, the bombs in But this was 1806 01:43:34,760 --> 01:43:38,920 Speaker 16: the legacy of Barack Obama, right up to two billion 1807 01:43:38,960 --> 01:43:41,360 Speaker 16: dollars at least on palettes of cash. 1808 01:43:41,479 --> 01:43:42,439 Speaker 19: That's the image. 1809 01:43:42,479 --> 01:43:45,439 Speaker 16: And you know you got you got these GBU fifty 1810 01:43:45,479 --> 01:43:48,080 Speaker 16: seven munitions and then put that against the cash that 1811 01:43:48,200 --> 01:43:48,880 Speaker 16: was going in here. 1812 01:43:48,920 --> 01:43:53,400 Speaker 19: And the Democratic National Chairman Ken Martin. 1813 01:43:53,240 --> 01:43:55,479 Speaker 16: Was very critical here, and he says, we measure our 1814 01:43:55,520 --> 01:43:58,720 Speaker 16: success not only by the battles we win, referring to 1815 01:43:58,720 --> 01:44:00,760 Speaker 16: what Trump said earlier in the but also by the 1816 01:44:00,760 --> 01:44:03,519 Speaker 16: wars that we end, and most importantly the wars we 1817 01:44:03,600 --> 01:44:08,320 Speaker 16: never go into. But Ken Martin said, against his own words, 1818 01:44:08,320 --> 01:44:11,200 Speaker 16: the President sent barbers into Iran. It also drew criticism 1819 01:44:11,200 --> 01:44:14,360 Speaker 16: from Senator Peter Welch, a Vermont Democrat, about the US 1820 01:44:14,479 --> 01:44:17,280 Speaker 16: entering the work does not make America more secure. And 1821 01:44:17,320 --> 01:44:21,519 Speaker 16: then we got Virginia Senator Tim Kaine horrible judgment, push 1822 01:44:21,520 --> 01:44:23,840 Speaker 16: all senators for a vote on whether they are in 1823 01:44:23,920 --> 01:44:28,280 Speaker 16: for this third idiotic Middle East war. And many others 1824 01:44:28,360 --> 01:44:31,439 Speaker 16: on top of that have lined up here. But I 1825 01:44:31,479 --> 01:44:35,040 Speaker 16: think they're hedging their bets. Even Rocanna joined the choir, 1826 01:44:35,160 --> 01:44:38,439 Speaker 16: and he's been somewhat reasonable on some things here. He 1827 01:44:38,560 --> 01:44:42,240 Speaker 16: introduced legislation with Thomas Massey, though called on Republicans to 1828 01:44:42,320 --> 01:44:47,560 Speaker 16: terminate the use of armed forces against Iran unless explicitly 1829 01:44:47,680 --> 01:44:52,639 Speaker 16: authorized by Congress to go to war. So you know, 1830 01:44:52,840 --> 01:44:55,040 Speaker 16: there's no shortage of this. Of course they're going to 1831 01:44:55,160 --> 01:44:58,479 Speaker 16: use this as a campaign, hedging their bets because you know, 1832 01:44:58,520 --> 01:45:01,439 Speaker 16: we talked about yesterday the fog war with Bannon. You know, 1833 01:45:01,520 --> 01:45:04,320 Speaker 16: things go wrong, things happen. We had two hundred million 1834 01:45:04,360 --> 01:45:06,519 Speaker 16: dollars in fighters lost in the deck of the harry S. 1835 01:45:06,600 --> 01:45:07,880 Speaker 19: Truman since December. 1836 01:45:08,160 --> 01:45:11,599 Speaker 16: You know, we had a hoothy cruise missile come within one. 1837 01:45:11,520 --> 01:45:14,040 Speaker 19: Mile or half a mile of the harry S. Truman. 1838 01:45:14,080 --> 01:45:16,280 Speaker 16: And if it wasn't our close for our twenty millimeter 1839 01:45:16,360 --> 01:45:19,880 Speaker 16: close in weapons systems, the Phalanx, you know, which puts 1840 01:45:19,960 --> 01:45:23,639 Speaker 16: up basically a wall of steel of rounds, the Truman 1841 01:45:23,680 --> 01:45:26,280 Speaker 16: may have been hit. These things can happen. Now we 1842 01:45:26,320 --> 01:45:28,800 Speaker 16: have three carrier groups in there, and maybe later we 1843 01:45:28,840 --> 01:45:32,080 Speaker 16: could talk about the Gulf States preparing for war, US 1844 01:45:32,120 --> 01:45:36,040 Speaker 16: evacuating the base and Cotter the biggest base you know 1845 01:45:36,120 --> 01:45:38,439 Speaker 16: over there, I think in the Middle East for the US. 1846 01:45:38,880 --> 01:45:41,320 Speaker 19: So, you know, a lot to be concerned about. 1847 01:45:41,360 --> 01:45:43,599 Speaker 16: But the Democrats, you know, it's easy for them, right, 1848 01:45:43,800 --> 01:45:47,160 Speaker 16: they just had the JCPOA, which was failed policy, and 1849 01:45:47,680 --> 01:45:50,639 Speaker 16: now Iran as not a nuclear threat apparently. 1850 01:45:52,240 --> 01:45:55,479 Speaker 12: Yeah, let's take a little bit of a time out, right, 1851 01:45:55,520 --> 01:45:58,400 Speaker 12: Now we are reporting live here on Real America's Voice 1852 01:45:58,400 --> 01:46:01,519 Speaker 12: on Operation MIDI Night Hammer, remember that name. 1853 01:46:01,800 --> 01:46:03,400 Speaker 13: We'll have more discussion. 1854 01:46:03,040 --> 01:46:05,760 Speaker 12: From all of our experts here on Real America's Voice, 1855 01:46:05,800 --> 01:46:06,799 Speaker 12: and we come right back. 1856 01:46:14,120 --> 01:46:17,479 Speaker 1: Because we've just learned that the United States of America 1857 01:46:17,720 --> 01:46:20,479 Speaker 1: has become a combatant in the what I call the 1858 01:46:20,520 --> 01:46:21,280 Speaker 1: Persian War. 1859 01:46:21,479 --> 01:46:25,040 Speaker 2: Iran's Ki nuclear and Richmond facilities have been completely and 1860 01:46:25,080 --> 01:46:26,520 Speaker 2: totally obliterated. 1861 01:46:29,040 --> 01:46:32,040 Speaker 6: Well we entered the war. Now at least three B two. 1862 01:46:31,960 --> 01:46:35,920 Speaker 3: Bombers dropped on Porto.

Let's now 1865 01:46:40,560 --> 01:46:43,240 Speaker 2: make peace. If they do not, future attacks will be 1866 01:46:43,280 --> 01:46:46,160 Speaker 2: far greater and a lot easier. 1867 01:46:46,240 --> 01:46:48,800 Speaker 5: The Israelis bid off more than they could chew. Let's 1868 01:46:48,840 --> 01:46:49,320 Speaker 5: just be blue. 1869 01:46:50,520 --> 01:46:52,880 Speaker 1: The Americans came in on a President Trump in a 1870 01:46:53,320 --> 01:46:55,800 Speaker 1: target package, and I think he's sitting there going, hey, 1871 01:46:56,000 --> 01:46:56,479 Speaker 1: this is it. 1872 01:46:57,040 --> 01:46:58,400 Speaker 5: I want you guys to stand down. 1873 01:46:58,439 --> 01:46:59,160 Speaker 8: Were at war. 1874 01:46:59,280 --> 01:47:02,040 Speaker 7: They will, they will have to respond, and our boys 1875 01:47:02,040 --> 01:47:03,639 Speaker 7: are sitting right off the coast. 1876 01:47:04,800 --> 01:47:07,800 Speaker 9: We did what no one else could do.

I am no person who likes 1910 01:48:48,680 --> 01:48:52,160 Speaker 12: to whistle pass graveyards, but I have to say that, Look, 1911 01:48:52,439 --> 01:48:54,479 Speaker 12: our American troops are trained for this. They know that 1912 01:48:54,479 --> 01:48:56,760 Speaker 12: they're in harms way the second they deploy, they're in 1913 01:48:56,800 --> 01:48:58,880 Speaker 12: harms way when they do training exercises here in the 1914 01:48:59,000 --> 01:48:59,679 Speaker 12: United States. 1915 01:49:00,400 --> 01:49:02,640 Speaker 13: The idea that we should be pushing. 1916 01:49:02,240 --> 01:49:05,880 Speaker 12: This scare mongering message, especially on our fighting men and women, 1917 01:49:06,040 --> 01:49:08,719 Speaker 12: I find that a little distasteful right now. I trust 1918 01:49:09,120 --> 01:49:12,519 Speaker 12: their courage, I trust their training. Of course, if I 1919 01:49:12,520 --> 01:49:14,759 Speaker 12: can join in the course of threatening Iran and anyone 1920 01:49:14,800 --> 01:49:16,320 Speaker 12: else wants to attack us, not to do it. 1921 01:49:16,439 --> 01:49:18,839 Speaker 13: I'm certainly going to do that. Frank Avney. 1922 01:49:19,080 --> 01:49:22,960 Speaker 12: We've been prepared for this for a long time, haven't we. 1923 01:49:22,960 --> 01:49:26,040 Speaker 14: Well, it's something we're prepared for in a sense. But 1924 01:49:26,320 --> 01:49:28,800 Speaker 14: I don't think we're taking all of the steps that 1925 01:49:28,880 --> 01:49:33,760 Speaker 14: we can to protect our personnel in the region, to 1926 01:49:33,800 --> 01:49:39,080 Speaker 14: help protect Israel and not least protect against the possibility 1927 01:49:39,120 --> 01:49:43,439 Speaker 14: that we've been discussing throughout the morning Iranian sleeper cells, 1928 01:49:44,080 --> 01:49:49,160 Speaker 14: has belaw elements, the front organizations of Iran, and not 1929 01:49:49,320 --> 01:49:53,360 Speaker 14: least now assassination squads that we know are inside our country. 1930 01:49:53,360 --> 01:49:57,000 Speaker 14: We're not protecting against those as we must, I believe 1931 01:49:57,840 --> 01:50:03,000 Speaker 14: by taking a step that would be pretent potentially absolutely 1932 01:50:04,000 --> 01:50:07,760 Speaker 14: decisive in preventing any of those things from going sideways, 1933 01:50:08,360 --> 01:50:13,799 Speaker 14: namely ending the regime what's left of it in Iran. 1934 01:50:14,120 --> 01:50:17,479 Speaker 14: And I'm not talking about regime change, which means that 1935 01:50:17,560 --> 01:50:18,960 Speaker 14: we're going to go in and we're going to tell 1936 01:50:19,000 --> 01:50:22,679 Speaker 14: the Iranians what's coming next, who's going to run their country, 1937 01:50:22,680 --> 01:50:27,400 Speaker 14: how it's going to be governed. I'm talking about free Iran. 1938 01:50:28,360 --> 01:50:33,839 Speaker 14: And if we act now as we are apparently waiting 1939 01:50:33,960 --> 01:50:39,160 Speaker 14: for some prospective deal with that molocracy that will conduce 1940 01:50:39,200 --> 01:50:42,639 Speaker 14: to peace, there's no such thing. At the very best, 1941 01:50:42,760 --> 01:50:46,680 Speaker 14: it means a postponement of the next round of the 1942 01:50:46,760 --> 01:50:51,000 Speaker 14: violence with them, because they are determined to destroy this country. 1943 01:50:51,040 --> 01:50:54,439 Speaker 14: That's what they're all about. These Sharia supremacists in general 1944 01:50:54,760 --> 01:50:58,400 Speaker 14: and the Iotolas in particular. So Jake I would just say, 1945 01:50:58,000 --> 01:51:00,760 Speaker 14: if we want to actually not just be prepared, but 1946 01:51:00,880 --> 01:51:04,479 Speaker 14: we want to be taking the steps that will almost 1947 01:51:04,479 --> 01:51:10,720 Speaker 14: certainly impede orders being given by these various elements to 1948 01:51:10,840 --> 01:51:13,960 Speaker 14: attack us, to attack our personnel, to attack our allies. 1949 01:51:14,560 --> 01:51:17,680 Speaker 14: We need to ensure that the Israelis are free to 1950 01:51:17,800 --> 01:51:23,160 Speaker 14: take out this government. Doing otherwise legitimizes the regime. It 1951 01:51:23,240 --> 01:51:25,320 Speaker 14: signals to the Israelis that they have to keep their 1952 01:51:25,320 --> 01:51:30,160 Speaker 14: hands off what's left of the moulocracy. And third, most especially, 1953 01:51:30,280 --> 01:51:34,639 Speaker 14: it signals to the people of Iran that once again 1954 01:51:34,760 --> 01:51:40,240 Speaker 14: the United States wants to keep going this horrific government 1955 01:51:40,360 --> 01:51:44,840 Speaker 14: that has oppressed them so terribly and threatens us. For 1956 01:51:45,120 --> 01:51:48,000 Speaker 14: none of those reasons should we be persisting in the 1957 01:51:48,040 --> 01:51:51,320 Speaker 14: pursuit of negotiations with these guys, with the possible exception 1958 01:51:51,960 --> 01:51:55,520 Speaker 14: of insisting and accepting their unconditional surrendering. 1959 01:51:57,200 --> 01:51:57,800 Speaker 13: Thank you, Frank. 1960 01:51:58,040 --> 01:51:59,720 Speaker 12: I want to bring a Mark seronicas Mark, I like 1961 01:51:59,760 --> 01:52:03,680 Speaker 12: talking to you about messaging, and you know Frank mentioned this. 1962 01:52:03,760 --> 01:52:05,479 Speaker 13: I think it was the last hour, or at least 1963 01:52:05,479 --> 01:52:06,479 Speaker 13: he alluded to it. 1964 01:52:07,439 --> 01:52:11,200 Speaker 12: The Barack Obama administration early on in his administration his 1965 01:52:11,240 --> 01:52:12,760 Speaker 12: first year in office in two thousand and nine. It 1966 01:52:12,800 --> 01:52:14,439 Speaker 12: was really just within months of him taking the oath 1967 01:52:14,439 --> 01:52:19,200 Speaker 12: of office a popular uprising began in Iran calling for democracy. 1968 01:52:19,600 --> 01:52:21,320 Speaker 13: He not once said a. 1969 01:52:21,280 --> 01:52:23,599 Speaker 12: Word even in encouragement of it, let alone doing anything 1970 01:52:23,640 --> 01:52:26,320 Speaker 12: tactically on the ground to help. When President Trump was 1971 01:52:26,320 --> 01:52:30,160 Speaker 12: president in his first term, a massive amount of violent protests. 1972 01:52:30,479 --> 01:52:33,200 Speaker 12: It became violent because the regime started to push back 1973 01:52:33,240 --> 01:52:36,800 Speaker 12: on them. Against the Iranian regime began. President Trump did 1974 01:52:36,880 --> 01:52:39,840 Speaker 12: speak out in support of it, unlike Barack Obama, and 1975 01:52:40,040 --> 01:52:43,920 Speaker 12: Iran basically felt very free, maybe because COVID was beginning 1976 01:52:43,920 --> 01:52:46,080 Speaker 12: here in the United States, or at least the lockdowns 1977 01:52:46,120 --> 01:52:49,080 Speaker 12: of COVID. And they not only killed many of those 1978 01:52:49,160 --> 01:52:51,479 Speaker 12: Iranian protesters who you know. Again, for those of you 1979 01:52:51,479 --> 01:52:53,320 Speaker 12: who are wondering why the Irani people aren't going into 1980 01:52:53,320 --> 01:52:56,000 Speaker 12: the streets right now, understand the last time they did, 1981 01:52:56,200 --> 01:52:57,280 Speaker 12: they were literally killed. 1982 01:52:57,400 --> 01:53:00,160 Speaker 13: And worse than that Mark Serrano. There are many. 1983 01:53:00,120 --> 01:53:03,920 Speaker 12: Credible reports that the thugs who killed the Iranian protesters 1984 01:53:03,920 --> 01:53:06,960 Speaker 12: in twenty nineteen went to the homes of the families 1985 01:53:06,960 --> 01:53:09,559 Speaker 12: of the people they killed and gave them a bill 1986 01:53:09,640 --> 01:53:12,679 Speaker 12: for the bullets that were used to kill them Mark Serrano. 1987 01:53:12,800 --> 01:53:15,240 Speaker 12: In the face of all that, what kind of messaging 1988 01:53:15,240 --> 01:53:17,760 Speaker 12: can President Trump give now? Not just because I think 1989 01:53:17,800 --> 01:53:19,880 Speaker 12: he gave a great message to the American people, how 1990 01:53:19,880 --> 01:53:22,439 Speaker 12: about a message to the Iranian people that you would 1991 01:53:22,439 --> 01:53:24,960 Speaker 12: craft that you were doing that as a public relations 1992 01:53:24,840 --> 01:53:26,439 Speaker 12: as a communications expert. 1993 01:53:27,360 --> 01:53:30,280 Speaker 32: Sure, and Jake Tay, let's go back to the Ronald 1994 01:53:30,280 --> 01:53:35,920 Speaker 32: Reagan era. Remember what Ronald Reagan did with messaging. You know, 1995 01:53:36,040 --> 01:53:41,760 Speaker 32: he defined the Soviet Union as the evil Empire, and 1996 01:53:42,040 --> 01:53:46,040 Speaker 32: he spoke eloquently about America being the shining city on 1997 01:53:46,080 --> 01:53:50,639 Speaker 32: a hill. Think about that disparity, that contrast, that sends 1998 01:53:50,640 --> 01:53:53,280 Speaker 32: a signal to the world that America is a beacon 1999 01:53:53,360 --> 01:53:56,200 Speaker 32: of light. We are the last great hope on earth 2000 01:53:56,240 --> 01:54:00,680 Speaker 32: for freedom, for our God given rights, and there is 2001 01:54:00,840 --> 01:54:05,840 Speaker 32: evil in this world. President Trump basically was making up 2002 01:54:05,920 --> 01:54:08,480 Speaker 32: for all of Barack Obama's deficiencies. 2003 01:54:08,800 --> 01:54:09,479 Speaker 31: What did he do. 2004 01:54:09,600 --> 01:54:12,800 Speaker 32: He had a policy of appeasement. He didn't speak out 2005 01:54:12,920 --> 01:54:15,919 Speaker 32: during that Iranian uprising where the people in the streets 2006 01:54:16,000 --> 01:54:20,200 Speaker 32: wanted freedom, They were desperate for freedom. And yet propaganda 2007 01:54:20,240 --> 01:54:23,400 Speaker 32: can be used for good. You can speak to the 2008 01:54:23,439 --> 01:54:26,519 Speaker 32: Iranian people, and I believe President Trump will do this 2009 01:54:26,960 --> 01:54:31,240 Speaker 32: about their potential for freedom. Ninety million people have the 2010 01:54:31,400 --> 01:54:34,160 Speaker 32: hope and the chance for their God given rights to 2011 01:54:34,200 --> 01:54:39,520 Speaker 32: be embraced and respected. Perhaps this is that moment where 2012 01:54:39,560 --> 01:54:40,720 Speaker 32: they can finally have that. 2013 01:54:40,800 --> 01:54:44,200 Speaker 31: And you know, I've We've got great experts on here. 2014 01:54:44,280 --> 01:54:48,560 Speaker 32: Frank Gaffney is a terrific expert, and he's got all 2015 01:54:48,640 --> 01:54:49,440 Speaker 32: the respect in the world. 2016 01:54:49,520 --> 01:54:49,760 Speaker 5: For me. 2017 01:54:50,440 --> 01:54:53,400 Speaker 32: My only concern is that I think if there is 2018 01:54:53,440 --> 01:54:56,960 Speaker 32: a plan for regime change that's on Israel, that the 2019 01:54:57,040 --> 01:55:01,120 Speaker 32: United States can no longer be in that business, especially 2020 01:55:01,200 --> 01:55:05,560 Speaker 32: considering what got President Trump into power into office was 2021 01:55:06,400 --> 01:55:10,200 Speaker 32: a base of voters who said no more, forever wars, 2022 01:55:10,640 --> 01:55:11,200 Speaker 32: no regime. 2023 01:55:17,520 --> 01:55:20,240 Speaker 12: We may have lost. Mark Serano there for a second. 2024 01:55:20,360 --> 01:55:22,720 Speaker 12: I want to go to Gal Khalev, though, because Mark, 2025 01:55:22,800 --> 01:55:25,520 Speaker 12: he just tossed the ball into your court saying it's 2026 01:55:25,520 --> 01:55:28,040 Speaker 12: on Israel now for regime change. Tell us a little 2027 01:55:28,040 --> 01:55:33,000 Speaker 12: bit about Israel's very very intimate connections with Iran that 2028 01:55:33,160 --> 01:55:36,120 Speaker 12: started well before the fall of the Shah and continue 2029 01:55:36,160 --> 01:55:40,000 Speaker 12: now with a significant Persian Jewish community in Israel. Many 2030 01:55:40,080 --> 01:55:42,600 Speaker 12: of those communities live in the same neighborhoods they were 2031 01:55:42,640 --> 01:55:45,320 Speaker 12: asked by the Israeli government when they came to Israel 2032 01:55:45,320 --> 01:55:48,320 Speaker 12: in nineteen seventy nine and nineteen eighty to remain on 2033 01:55:48,400 --> 01:55:50,160 Speaker 12: the same blocks with one another, so they would keep 2034 01:55:50,200 --> 01:55:52,320 Speaker 12: their dialects the same, so they would be able to 2035 01:55:52,360 --> 01:55:54,920 Speaker 12: be fantastic resources for surveillance. 2036 01:55:55,080 --> 01:55:57,800 Speaker 13: Things like that. This is not Israel flying blind. 2037 01:55:57,800 --> 01:56:00,280 Speaker 12: I mean they do have the support of people like 2038 01:56:00,320 --> 01:56:03,760 Speaker 12: resipov Labi, who is the son of the Shah who 2039 01:56:03,800 --> 01:56:04,800 Speaker 12: died many years ago. 2040 01:56:05,640 --> 01:56:08,160 Speaker 13: Israel can help with regime change, can it. 2041 01:56:10,160 --> 01:56:10,440 Speaker 8: Yeah. 2042 01:56:10,480 --> 01:56:12,800 Speaker 20: And while we did not define with gym change is 2043 01:56:12,800 --> 01:56:15,000 Speaker 20: one of the objectives of the war, the Prime Minister 2044 01:56:15,280 --> 01:56:17,840 Speaker 20: and others have made clear that we will be happy 2045 01:56:17,880 --> 01:56:19,880 Speaker 20: if that's the outcome. It's up to the Iranian people, 2046 01:56:19,880 --> 01:56:24,600 Speaker 20: and we certainly providing the help and support for them 2047 01:56:24,640 --> 01:56:27,480 Speaker 20: to do that. We have a great relationship with the 2048 01:56:27,520 --> 01:56:29,440 Speaker 20: Iranian people, and we had a great relationship with the 2049 01:56:29,440 --> 01:56:33,880 Speaker 20: Iranian government until nineteen seventy nine, until the Iatolas took over. 2050 01:56:34,760 --> 01:56:37,320 Speaker 20: And we are made clear that this is not a 2051 01:56:37,360 --> 01:56:39,800 Speaker 20: war against the Iranian people. It's a war against this 2052 01:56:40,240 --> 01:56:45,000 Speaker 20: murderer's regime that mass murders people both now and throughout 2053 01:56:45,000 --> 01:56:49,440 Speaker 20: the last forty five years, and you're completely correct. We 2054 01:56:49,520 --> 01:56:53,440 Speaker 20: have a lot of Israeli Jews. I have a lot 2055 01:56:53,440 --> 01:56:57,800 Speaker 20: of friends who are Persians who are born there or 2056 01:56:57,840 --> 01:57:01,320 Speaker 20: with their parents were born there, And you're correct, we've 2057 01:57:01,520 --> 01:57:04,120 Speaker 20: leveraged that very effectively. So this is not about this war. 2058 01:57:04,440 --> 01:57:07,200 Speaker 20: It's not about boots on the grounds of American troops, 2059 01:57:07,200 --> 01:57:10,920 Speaker 20: but it's certainly about maybe Adida sneakers of Israeli Mussada 2060 01:57:10,960 --> 01:57:14,360 Speaker 20: agents on the crown, because the Israeli Masada has built 2061 01:57:14,640 --> 01:57:19,520 Speaker 20: a very, very prolific operation in Iran, much thanks to 2062 01:57:19,560 --> 01:57:24,160 Speaker 20: those Iranian Jews who moved to Israel. 2063 01:57:25,880 --> 01:57:27,120 Speaker 13: Well, we do have to go to break Franks. 2064 01:57:27,240 --> 01:57:28,600 Speaker 12: I'll get you when we come back from the other 2065 01:57:28,600 --> 01:57:30,360 Speaker 12: side of the break, Gaukaleb, he has to leave. 2066 01:57:30,240 --> 01:57:31,240 Speaker 13: Us now from Jerusalem. 2067 01:57:31,360 --> 01:57:33,280 Speaker 12: We thank you for your expertise and your voice from 2068 01:57:33,320 --> 01:57:35,360 Speaker 12: Israel or of course you are the tip of the spear. 2069 01:57:35,480 --> 01:57:37,640 Speaker 12: We'll be right back with more of our live coverage 2070 01:57:37,680 --> 01:57:41,160 Speaker 12: of Operation Midnight Hammer here on Real America's Voice. 2071 01:57:41,200 --> 01:57:41,880 Speaker 13: Thanks for watching. 2072 01:57:46,400 --> 01:57:50,800 Speaker 2: Very carried out massive precision strikes on the three key 2073 01:57:51,200 --> 01:57:54,520 Speaker 2: nuclear facilities in the Iranian regime. 2074 01:57:54,880 --> 01:58:00,320 Speaker 4: God bless the Middle East, God bless Israel.

Okay, 2075 01:58:00,320 --> 01:58:01,120 Speaker 4: thank you very much. 2076 01:58:03,880 --> 01:58:06,320 Speaker 12: Welcome back to Real America's Voice, our live coverage, and 2077 01:58:06,360 --> 01:58:09,920 Speaker 12: we have a name for it now, of Operation Midnight Hammer. 2078 01:58:10,440 --> 01:58:13,320 Speaker 12: That is what the US military has dubbed last night's 2079 01:58:13,320 --> 01:58:16,520 Speaker 12: attack on the three key Iranian nuclear sites. 2080 01:58:17,360 --> 01:58:19,360 Speaker 13: Secretary of State Pete Hegseth. 2081 01:58:19,040 --> 01:58:22,120 Speaker 12: And Joint Chiefs Chairman General Dan Kine telling us that 2082 01:58:22,160 --> 01:58:27,160 Speaker 12: those sites were indeed destroyed, but the battle damage assessment 2083 01:58:27,600 --> 01:58:30,000 Speaker 12: is not ready yet exactly from the detailed point of view. 2084 01:58:30,040 --> 01:58:32,400 Speaker 12: But as we've seen video of at least the explosions 2085 01:58:32,440 --> 01:58:35,440 Speaker 12: of ford Ow, can't possibly think there's going to be 2086 01:58:35,520 --> 01:58:37,720 Speaker 12: much going in and out of that site for much longer. 2087 01:58:38,360 --> 01:58:40,400 Speaker 12: We went to break, and Frank Avenue wanted to make 2088 01:58:40,440 --> 01:58:42,440 Speaker 12: a point before we went to break, so Frank got 2089 01:58:42,520 --> 01:58:43,440 Speaker 12: and give you the floor right now. 2090 01:58:43,480 --> 01:58:45,160 Speaker 5: Thank you, thank you. 2091 01:58:45,560 --> 01:58:48,720 Speaker 14: I just wanted to follow up clarifying my own position 2092 01:58:48,880 --> 01:58:54,200 Speaker 14: on this. Mark was talking about us not being in 2093 01:58:54,240 --> 01:58:56,440 Speaker 14: the business of regime change, and I agree with that. 2094 01:58:57,200 --> 01:59:00,680 Speaker 14: I think, especially this idea that we're some going to 2095 01:59:00,720 --> 01:59:06,360 Speaker 14: now pick who's going to run Iran. It isn't our mission. 2096 01:59:06,560 --> 01:59:10,480 Speaker 14: Our mission though, I think, and we don't have to 2097 01:59:10,520 --> 01:59:13,840 Speaker 14: do it ourselves. We simply need to ensure that the 2098 01:59:13,880 --> 01:59:18,160 Speaker 14: Israelis are free to take care of the remainder of 2099 01:59:18,160 --> 01:59:21,920 Speaker 14: this regime. Is to create conditions under which the people 2100 01:59:22,040 --> 01:59:27,920 Speaker 14: of Iran will rise up and remove what's left of 2101 01:59:27,920 --> 01:59:30,840 Speaker 14: this regime and make the decisions about how they will 2102 01:59:30,880 --> 01:59:35,760 Speaker 14: be governed going forward. I'm prayerful that as I think 2103 01:59:35,800 --> 01:59:42,680 Speaker 14: a very much educated, cultured, capable population, very much with 2104 01:59:42,800 --> 01:59:47,640 Speaker 14: a affinity for the West, that what will come out 2105 01:59:47,640 --> 01:59:51,440 Speaker 14: of it, perhaps after some chaos, yes, perhaps will be 2106 01:59:51,680 --> 01:59:56,000 Speaker 14: a government that will be very much wanting to bring 2107 01:59:56,160 --> 02:00:00,760 Speaker 14: their people at long last back into the Western civilzed world. 2108 02:00:01,360 --> 02:00:03,400 Speaker 14: We just need to make sure, and this is my 2109 02:00:03,600 --> 02:00:06,840 Speaker 14: key message to President Trump and everybody else. P Tex 2110 02:00:06,840 --> 02:00:09,880 Speaker 14: Sath today was talking about, you know, getting back into 2111 02:00:09,920 --> 02:00:12,960 Speaker 14: negotiations and the purpose of which is to have peace. 2112 02:00:13,760 --> 02:00:18,360 Speaker 14: The point is there will be no peace with the Mullas. 2113 02:00:19,160 --> 02:00:22,040 Speaker 14: There may be what they call a hudna where they 2114 02:00:22,400 --> 02:00:27,280 Speaker 14: temporarily suspend hostilities while they regroup and rearm and then 2115 02:00:27,440 --> 02:00:31,280 Speaker 14: re engage at their convenience. That's not peace and that's 2116 02:00:31,320 --> 02:00:35,040 Speaker 14: not something that will serve us because it suppresses the 2117 02:00:35,080 --> 02:00:37,560 Speaker 14: people of Iran. And as you were saying earlier, Jake, 2118 02:00:38,040 --> 02:00:42,520 Speaker 14: you know this isn't their first rodeo. They've been terribly, 2119 02:00:43,240 --> 02:00:47,640 Speaker 14: terribly brutalized, especially when they have taken the opportunity to 2120 02:00:48,120 --> 02:00:51,000 Speaker 14: rise up. There's never been a chance like now, and 2121 02:00:51,080 --> 02:00:54,160 Speaker 14: with the Israelis help if they are free to finish 2122 02:00:54,280 --> 02:00:56,760 Speaker 14: the job, as our friend Steve Benna likes to say, 2123 02:00:57,400 --> 02:01:02,600 Speaker 14: by getting the IRGC, the security apparatus that keeps these 2124 02:01:02,760 --> 02:01:06,320 Speaker 14: mullets in power. And we've had the President of Iran 2125 02:01:06,400 --> 02:01:09,240 Speaker 14: I'm told to resign. Presumably that's because he didn't want 2126 02:01:09,280 --> 02:01:12,040 Speaker 14: to be put out of business the old fashioned way, 2127 02:01:12,880 --> 02:01:15,320 Speaker 14: but that ought to be the case with every single 2128 02:01:15,360 --> 02:01:20,640 Speaker 14: one of them. Just entreat President Trump. Don't allow a 2129 02:01:20,720 --> 02:01:24,120 Speaker 14: new negotiation to have the effect of legitimizing this regime 2130 02:01:24,160 --> 02:01:28,200 Speaker 14: further and discouraging the Israelis from acting to remove it, 2131 02:01:28,480 --> 02:01:31,560 Speaker 14: the blast vestiges of it, and most especially keep the 2132 02:01:31,600 --> 02:01:34,920 Speaker 14: people of Iran from achieving what we all should want 2133 02:01:35,520 --> 02:01:38,680 Speaker 14: and I think need, and that is a free Iran. 2134 02:01:40,400 --> 02:01:41,200 Speaker 13: Thank you, bat Yat. 2135 02:01:41,200 --> 02:01:44,320 Speaker 12: Frank Afney, I want to take show you our com 2136 02:01:44,360 --> 02:01:47,880 Speaker 12: fleet team that's joining us now for this hour. We have, 2137 02:01:48,360 --> 02:01:51,000 Speaker 12: first of all Steve Gruber, the host of America's Voice 2138 02:01:51,040 --> 02:01:53,640 Speaker 12: live here on Real America's Voice, we're also joined by 2139 02:01:53,680 --> 02:01:57,320 Speaker 12: Matt Faracci, who has an Israel podcast. Steve Gruber, I 2140 02:01:57,320 --> 02:01:59,320 Speaker 12: want to go to you first, because you can't to 2141 02:01:59,360 --> 02:02:01,920 Speaker 12: remind people here on Real America's Voice. I hope all 2142 02:02:01,920 --> 02:02:04,920 Speaker 12: of you were watching this channel for the last several days, 2143 02:02:04,960 --> 02:02:06,880 Speaker 12: because first of all, this was the channel that first 2144 02:02:06,920 --> 02:02:09,240 Speaker 12: told you that you should be focusing on the word 2145 02:02:09,320 --> 02:02:12,600 Speaker 12: within two weeks, when Caroline Levitt said within two weeks, 2146 02:02:12,640 --> 02:02:14,440 Speaker 12: talked about that on my program, talked about it on 2147 02:02:14,480 --> 02:02:16,960 Speaker 12: an American Sunrise. I know you talked about it too 2148 02:02:17,040 --> 02:02:19,560 Speaker 12: as well, Steve. And of course the scrambling last night, 2149 02:02:19,640 --> 02:02:22,040 Speaker 12: people like David Zeerr who also joins us now to 2150 02:02:22,120 --> 02:02:24,240 Speaker 12: get on the air and to let people know about 2151 02:02:24,240 --> 02:02:26,800 Speaker 12: what was going on, and of course our early morning 2152 02:02:26,800 --> 02:02:27,560 Speaker 12: coverage this morning. 2153 02:02:27,800 --> 02:02:30,840 Speaker 13: Steve, we have the freedom here to speak the way 2154 02:02:30,840 --> 02:02:31,480 Speaker 13: we want to. Steve. 2155 02:02:31,520 --> 02:02:35,320 Speaker 12: You're joining us from an undisclosed location in Michigan where 2156 02:02:35,320 --> 02:02:38,000 Speaker 12: you lived with chickens. But America didn't act like chickens 2157 02:02:38,040 --> 02:02:39,080 Speaker 12: last night, did they, Steve? 2158 02:02:39,560 --> 02:02:42,920 Speaker 18: No, they did not. And look what we did last night. 2159 02:02:42,960 --> 02:02:46,320 Speaker 18: There was no question that Donald Trump again and we 2160 02:02:46,360 --> 02:02:49,000 Speaker 18: talked about it on America's Voice Live. For the entirety 2161 02:02:49,000 --> 02:02:51,880 Speaker 18: of all last week, it was pretty clear by what 2162 02:02:51,960 --> 02:02:53,920 Speaker 18: President Trump was saying that he was going in. Now, 2163 02:02:53,960 --> 02:02:56,080 Speaker 18: we tempered that a bit on Friday because he got 2164 02:02:56,120 --> 02:02:58,480 Speaker 18: me too. He got me to say, well, maybe they're 2165 02:02:58,480 --> 02:03:00,840 Speaker 18: going to take a momentitude of negotiate for a minute. 2166 02:03:00,880 --> 02:03:02,560 Speaker 18: They were never going to take a moment to negotiate. 2167 02:03:02,600 --> 02:03:06,040 Speaker 18: The negotiations were over as far as the plants in 2168 02:03:06,280 --> 02:03:08,680 Speaker 18: four doh and the tons and the others, they were 2169 02:03:08,720 --> 02:03:10,840 Speaker 18: going in. They had made the decision. They moved some 2170 02:03:10,920 --> 02:03:15,640 Speaker 18: B two bombers. Again, it's great manipulation of the headlines 2171 02:03:15,640 --> 02:03:19,400 Speaker 18: and propaganda to open the avenue so that America could 2172 02:03:19,400 --> 02:03:22,480 Speaker 18: deliver a well they call it the Midnight Hammer. They 2173 02:03:22,480 --> 02:03:24,720 Speaker 18: could deliver the Midnight Hammer to Iran and say, look, 2174 02:03:24,720 --> 02:03:27,160 Speaker 18: we're not going to tolerate you having a nuclear weapon. 2175 02:03:27,240 --> 02:03:29,600 Speaker 18: And for the people that are out there today, well, 2176 02:03:29,640 --> 02:03:33,240 Speaker 18: why is it up to us to have oversight over Iran? 2177 02:03:33,360 --> 02:03:36,640 Speaker 18: Because nobody else can, Because it's our job to keep 2178 02:03:36,680 --> 02:03:38,440 Speaker 18: the world safe. It's our job to make sure that 2179 02:03:38,480 --> 02:03:41,400 Speaker 18: tamlas in Tehran do not have nuclear weapons that they 2180 02:03:41,400 --> 02:03:44,560 Speaker 18: were used, not just on Israel potentially, but potentially on 2181 02:03:44,560 --> 02:03:48,120 Speaker 18: the United States. They want a delivery system icbm's interc 2182 02:03:48,560 --> 02:03:52,360 Speaker 18: ballistic missiles. They want those missiles available so they could 2183 02:03:52,440 --> 02:03:53,360 Speaker 18: hit the United States. 2184 02:03:53,440 --> 02:03:54,200 Speaker 15: That's a fact. 2185 02:03:55,080 --> 02:03:58,200 Speaker 18: And for anybody who questions why we did this, we 2186 02:03:58,280 --> 02:04:01,160 Speaker 18: did this because we had to, and we have an 2187 02:04:01,200 --> 02:04:04,600 Speaker 18: opportunity for the first time since nineteen seventy nine, to 2188 02:04:04,720 --> 02:04:09,000 Speaker 18: deliver a blow to Iran, to that regime that is 2189 02:04:09,040 --> 02:04:11,720 Speaker 18: at its weakest point since nineteen seventy nine. It's the 2190 02:04:11,760 --> 02:04:14,760 Speaker 18: Iranian Islamic Revolution of nineteen seventy nine when they took 2191 02:04:14,800 --> 02:04:17,360 Speaker 18: fifty two Americans hostage for four hundred and forty four days. 2192 02:04:17,400 --> 02:04:19,800 Speaker 18: This was the window that was open. We called it 2193 02:04:19,840 --> 02:04:21,600 Speaker 18: here on this network. We said they're going within a 2194 02:04:21,600 --> 02:04:24,640 Speaker 18: couple of days. I said by Saturday. Apparently I was 2195 02:04:24,720 --> 02:04:27,160 Speaker 18: right about that. You were too, Jake. I know that 2196 02:04:27,200 --> 02:04:29,080 Speaker 18: Matt Farachi and David Zee and all the rest have 2197 02:04:29,120 --> 02:04:31,920 Speaker 18: been watching this closely as well, because we're right on 2198 02:04:31,960 --> 02:04:36,480 Speaker 18: the cusp of a change of leadership in Iran, and 2199 02:04:36,520 --> 02:04:38,680 Speaker 18: how important would that be to the world going forward. 2200 02:04:38,840 --> 02:04:42,000 Speaker 18: Their neighbors like Saudi Arabia and Jordan and other countries 2201 02:04:42,000 --> 02:04:43,800 Speaker 18: in the Middle East. They don't want Iran to have 2202 02:04:43,880 --> 02:04:46,600 Speaker 18: nuclear weapons either, because they don't trust these people in 2203 02:04:46,600 --> 02:04:50,680 Speaker 18: Tehran to have that kind of power. And that's where 2204 02:04:50,680 --> 02:04:52,520 Speaker 18: we wake up today. And that's where I woke up today, 2205 02:04:52,520 --> 02:04:55,240 Speaker 18: because I've never been feeling well, but I woke up 2206 02:04:55,240 --> 02:04:59,560 Speaker 18: and I've absorbed all of this, and look, it's a 2207 02:04:59,600 --> 02:05:03,240 Speaker 18: new day. I applaud President Trump and his administration, Pete 2208 02:05:03,280 --> 02:05:07,960 Speaker 18: Hegseth for pulling off another head fake. Oh look here 2209 02:05:08,360 --> 02:05:12,200 Speaker 18: we've got and then bam, midnight hammer falls on the Iranians. 2210 02:05:12,320 --> 02:05:16,440 Speaker 18: And I have to say most Americans are not for 2211 02:05:16,440 --> 02:05:18,560 Speaker 18: boots on the ground, but they're perfectly okay with this 2212 02:05:18,680 --> 02:05:22,400 Speaker 18: kind of an activity to stop the Tehran regime from 2213 02:05:22,400 --> 02:05:24,160 Speaker 18: having nuclear weapons. 2214 02:05:25,120 --> 02:05:27,640 Speaker 12: Oh, Steve, you may be sick, but you sound great 2215 02:05:27,680 --> 02:05:29,480 Speaker 12: and what you have to say is very wise. I 2216 02:05:29,480 --> 02:05:31,360 Speaker 12: want to go to Matt Farachi. Matt, you're a former 2217 02:05:31,440 --> 02:05:32,440 Speaker 12: political strategist. 2218 02:05:32,920 --> 02:05:35,000 Speaker 13: You know we're talking about regime change in Iran. 2219 02:05:35,120 --> 02:05:37,640 Speaker 12: But and I'm not putting tongue in cheek when I 2220 02:05:37,720 --> 02:05:41,040 Speaker 12: say this, Matt, what are we going to get regime 2221 02:05:41,160 --> 02:05:45,800 Speaker 12: change from the Democratic Party? I don't know how smart 2222 02:05:45,800 --> 02:05:48,600 Speaker 12: a political consultant you have to be to understand that 2223 02:05:48,640 --> 02:05:50,800 Speaker 12: if you are an elected Democrat in this country right now, 2224 02:05:50,800 --> 02:05:54,000 Speaker 12: and you stand for this attack, and you stand for 2225 02:05:54,080 --> 02:05:57,560 Speaker 12: what is a safeguarding of the American people, the safeguarding 2226 02:05:57,560 --> 02:06:01,240 Speaker 12: of our allies, an attack against agi that is against 2227 02:06:01,280 --> 02:06:05,440 Speaker 12: every liberal belief and philosophy under the sun, whether it's 2228 02:06:05,480 --> 02:06:07,880 Speaker 12: the suppression of women, whether it's the killing of gay 2229 02:06:07,960 --> 02:06:11,000 Speaker 12: and lesbian people on on down the line. I don't 2230 02:06:11,000 --> 02:06:12,960 Speaker 12: think I need to be a genius to say that 2231 02:06:13,080 --> 02:06:15,520 Speaker 12: any Democrat that does that will get a boost in 2232 02:06:15,560 --> 02:06:18,520 Speaker 12: the polls. They might get a shive in the side 2233 02:06:18,520 --> 02:06:20,760 Speaker 12: from the DNC, but they would get a boost in 2234 02:06:20,800 --> 02:06:23,880 Speaker 12: the polls. Could this lead to regime change among the 2235 02:06:23,880 --> 02:06:27,280 Speaker 12: Democratic Party where we see sane Democrats coming to power 2236 02:06:27,320 --> 02:06:27,840 Speaker 12: over there. 2237 02:06:29,360 --> 02:06:31,880 Speaker 33: Well, first, what I'd love to do, if I might, 2238 02:06:31,960 --> 02:06:34,200 Speaker 33: just for a second, is add to what Steve said, 2239 02:06:34,240 --> 02:06:37,720 Speaker 33: because I think it's prescient the nature of the threat. 2240 02:06:37,880 --> 02:06:40,360 Speaker 33: I think the whole conversation about the nature of the 2241 02:06:40,400 --> 02:06:44,200 Speaker 33: threat has been has been way off, and that's probably 2242 02:06:44,240 --> 02:06:47,640 Speaker 33: because people have what I call George W. Bush syndrome. 2243 02:06:48,000 --> 02:06:51,360 Speaker 33: You know, before George W. Bush, when the President of 2244 02:06:51,360 --> 02:06:53,840 Speaker 33: the United States said that such and such as a 2245 02:06:53,920 --> 02:06:59,200 Speaker 33: threat we believed them, and unfortunately after George W. Bush, 2246 02:06:59,240 --> 02:07:02,280 Speaker 33: because of the fact that there were no WMD found 2247 02:07:02,280 --> 02:07:06,120 Speaker 33: in Iraq, et cetera, et cetera. Now when the President 2248 02:07:06,160 --> 02:07:10,400 Speaker 33: says something, everybody questions it. First of all, of course, 2249 02:07:10,640 --> 02:07:14,280 Speaker 33: these weapons were a threat to Israel. There are several 2250 02:07:14,480 --> 02:07:18,640 Speaker 33: hundred thousand Americans, I need to point out living in Israel. 2251 02:07:19,320 --> 02:07:24,200 Speaker 33: There are also Americans living in the region. You'll also 2252 02:07:24,280 --> 02:07:28,520 Speaker 33: further notice that all the Arab states who can't stand Iran, 2253 02:07:28,680 --> 02:07:31,280 Speaker 33: you haven't heard anybody saying anything negative. 2254 02:07:31,440 --> 02:07:31,680 Speaker 19: Right. 2255 02:07:32,040 --> 02:07:35,320 Speaker 33: That's partly because the President went over there beforehand and 2256 02:07:36,840 --> 02:07:39,280 Speaker 33: let everybody know what was going to happen if Iran 2257 02:07:39,640 --> 02:07:41,920 Speaker 33: chose not to give up their nuclear program. 2258 02:07:42,280 --> 02:07:43,800 Speaker 18: But I just want to make the point. 2259 02:07:43,560 --> 02:07:47,480 Speaker 33: That, yes, Israel is a key ally, and yes it 2260 02:07:47,520 --> 02:07:49,680 Speaker 33: was a threat to Israel, but it's also a threat 2261 02:07:49,680 --> 02:07:51,640 Speaker 33: to the United States. I think people are thinking in 2262 02:07:51,680 --> 02:07:55,680 Speaker 33: a linear manner, right. They're thinking about, well, Iran could 2263 02:07:55,720 --> 02:07:57,520 Speaker 33: build a nuke, and then they could put the nuke 2264 02:07:57,560 --> 02:07:59,920 Speaker 33: on a missile and the missile could hit Israel or 2265 02:08:00,160 --> 02:08:01,200 Speaker 33: Europe in the short term. 2266 02:08:01,200 --> 02:08:01,680 Speaker 18: In America. 2267 02:08:01,720 --> 02:08:03,320 Speaker 8: In the long term, the other thing is. 2268 02:08:03,240 --> 02:08:06,280 Speaker 12: We're gonna We're gonna let you finish in just a second, Matt, 2269 02:08:06,280 --> 02:08:07,600 Speaker 12: because we're gonna have to take a break. 2270 02:08:07,600 --> 02:08:08,760 Speaker 13: We're talking with Matt Faracci. 2271 02:08:08,880 --> 02:08:11,720 Speaker 12: Remember you're watching Real America's Voice, where we were live 2272 02:08:11,760 --> 02:08:14,000 Speaker 12: all day yesterday with Steve Bannon, who said the party 2273 02:08:14,080 --> 02:08:16,560 Speaker 12: is on right here. This was the network to watch. 2274 02:08:16,600 --> 02:08:18,080 Speaker 12: This was a channel to watch, and it still will 2275 02:08:18,080 --> 02:08:19,480 Speaker 12: be when we come right back from break. We'll be 2276 02:08:19,560 --> 02:08:21,600 Speaker 12: right back with Matt Faraci here on Real America. 2277 02:08:21,680 --> 02:08:34,280 Speaker 2: Les Y carried out massive precision strikes on the three 2278 02:08:34,400 --> 02:08:40,120 Speaker 2: key nuclear facilities in the Iranian regime. God bless the 2279 02:08:40,160 --> 02:08:44,000 Speaker 2: Middle East, God bless Israel, and God bless America. 2280 02:08:44,080 --> 02:08:44,920 Speaker 4: Thank you very much. 2281 02:08:47,400 --> 02:08:50,280 Speaker 12: Welcome back to our live coverage here of Operation Midnight Hammer, 2282 02:08:50,320 --> 02:08:53,600 Speaker 12: the US strike on the Iranian three nuclear sites, according 2283 02:08:53,640 --> 02:08:57,080 Speaker 12: to the President and our Secretary of Defense, completely successful. 2284 02:08:57,240 --> 02:08:58,920 Speaker 12: We were just in the middle of talking with Matfaraci 2285 02:08:58,920 --> 02:09:01,320 Speaker 12: when I rudely interrupt him. Sorry, Matt, but before you 2286 02:09:01,360 --> 02:09:02,920 Speaker 12: get back to your point, I want to ask you 2287 02:09:03,200 --> 02:09:05,200 Speaker 12: about the media coverage of this. You know, it's really 2288 02:09:05,240 --> 02:09:08,040 Speaker 12: important for the American people to understand that those of 2289 02:09:08,120 --> 02:09:09,600 Speaker 12: us in the news business who have been in it 2290 02:09:09,640 --> 02:09:12,480 Speaker 12: for a long time, like myself, like people like Steve Gruber, 2291 02:09:12,720 --> 02:09:15,120 Speaker 12: like Frank Gaviney Davis ere we knew this was going 2292 02:09:15,200 --> 02:09:17,160 Speaker 12: to happen when it was going to happen, for the 2293 02:09:17,200 --> 02:09:19,600 Speaker 12: most part, not the exact hour, but you get the point. 2294 02:09:20,000 --> 02:09:23,080 Speaker 12: And accordingly here on Real America's Voice, we were live 2295 02:09:23,160 --> 02:09:25,760 Speaker 12: yesterday with Steve Bannon's war Room, and he's live on 2296 02:09:25,800 --> 02:09:27,320 Speaker 12: the air when this thing starts and he says the 2297 02:09:27,360 --> 02:09:30,200 Speaker 12: party has started. I mean there is an absolutely. I 2298 02:09:30,240 --> 02:09:31,800 Speaker 12: was just talking about what we need regime change with 2299 02:09:31,880 --> 02:09:35,400 Speaker 12: the Democratic Party. But people also need to understand media 2300 02:09:35,480 --> 02:09:36,200 Speaker 12: messaging here. 2301 02:09:36,360 --> 02:09:38,880 Speaker 13: I am not looking to win elections. 2302 02:09:38,400 --> 02:09:41,520 Speaker 12: For anyone or going into the trenches, but I'm here 2303 02:09:41,520 --> 02:09:43,640 Speaker 12: to tell the American people what I think they're not 2304 02:09:43,800 --> 02:09:46,120 Speaker 12: getting even on those established channels. 2305 02:09:46,160 --> 02:09:48,920 Speaker 13: We know, we know who they are, what they think. 2306 02:09:48,920 --> 02:09:51,200 Speaker 12: Maybe there's a friendly message, and I think Matt that's 2307 02:09:51,240 --> 02:09:54,120 Speaker 12: important now too, right, the American people need to get good, clear, 2308 02:09:55,640 --> 02:09:58,000 Speaker 12: in the minute messaging like they got here and they're 2309 02:09:58,000 --> 02:09:58,600 Speaker 12: getting here now. 2310 02:10:00,080 --> 02:10:00,839 Speaker 18: Yeah, exactly. 2311 02:10:00,880 --> 02:10:05,000 Speaker 33: And to double down on what you're saying again, the 2312 02:10:05,120 --> 02:10:08,760 Speaker 33: nature of the threat. A nuclear armed deran is a 2313 02:10:08,840 --> 02:10:11,840 Speaker 33: direct threat to the United States, and one of the 2314 02:10:11,840 --> 02:10:14,400 Speaker 33: things that Again that we don't know is let's say 2315 02:10:14,400 --> 02:10:17,440 Speaker 33: that they were able to make nuclear weapons. They also 2316 02:10:17,480 --> 02:10:22,520 Speaker 33: specialize in drones. What kind of technology or delivery systems 2317 02:10:22,760 --> 02:10:26,360 Speaker 33: could Iran use to deliver those nuclear weapons? Or who 2318 02:10:26,400 --> 02:10:28,400 Speaker 33: would they sell them to? Because there's lots of bad 2319 02:10:28,440 --> 02:10:31,360 Speaker 33: actors around the world. They're the biggest sponsors of terrorism, 2320 02:10:31,680 --> 02:10:35,200 Speaker 33: so they like to give weapons to their proxies. You know, 2321 02:10:35,360 --> 02:10:37,880 Speaker 33: it doesn't take a genius to figure out what's happening there. 2322 02:10:38,520 --> 02:10:41,040 Speaker 33: To your point about the Democrats, I think there's two 2323 02:10:41,720 --> 02:10:44,440 Speaker 33: sort of key things that takeaways from this. The first 2324 02:10:44,440 --> 02:10:49,360 Speaker 33: thing is it's quite terrifying to see the face at 2325 02:10:49,440 --> 02:10:53,120 Speaker 33: least of the Democratic Party as an anti American party, 2326 02:10:53,840 --> 02:10:57,800 Speaker 33: a party that is rooting for the other side. That 2327 02:10:58,000 --> 02:11:01,680 Speaker 33: is something that's unprecedented and that we've never seen in 2328 02:11:01,720 --> 02:11:04,480 Speaker 33: this country before. And I know people are saying, well, 2329 02:11:04,760 --> 02:11:06,720 Speaker 33: they should keep going because they're never going to win 2330 02:11:06,720 --> 02:11:09,640 Speaker 33: an election. But the scary part is if they were 2331 02:11:09,680 --> 02:11:12,440 Speaker 33: to win another election, it would make Joe Biden look 2332 02:11:12,560 --> 02:11:16,400 Speaker 33: like a moderate, and that's to me as an American, 2333 02:11:16,400 --> 02:11:19,640 Speaker 33: that's very troubling. The other thing that I'm hoping and 2334 02:11:19,720 --> 02:11:23,960 Speaker 33: praying that this strike has done is if you look 2335 02:11:24,000 --> 02:11:26,680 Speaker 33: at the bed wedding on the right, and not just 2336 02:11:26,760 --> 02:11:29,680 Speaker 33: from Tucker Carlson, but from a bunch of other voices 2337 02:11:29,720 --> 02:11:33,800 Speaker 33: on the right who obviously have fatigue from the forever 2338 02:11:33,880 --> 02:11:36,640 Speaker 33: wars that have been fought since George W. 2339 02:11:36,720 --> 02:11:37,280 Speaker 15: Bush. 2340 02:11:37,520 --> 02:11:39,960 Speaker 33: The point is, and I'm sure Frank Gaffney has made 2341 02:11:40,000 --> 02:11:43,280 Speaker 33: this point beautifully on air, is that not all wars 2342 02:11:43,280 --> 02:11:46,760 Speaker 33: are the same, not all military actions are the same. 2343 02:11:47,680 --> 02:11:51,440 Speaker 33: Taking out nuclear sites with a precision strike is not 2344 02:11:51,560 --> 02:11:54,680 Speaker 33: the same as putting hundreds of thousands of Americans on 2345 02:11:54,720 --> 02:11:57,440 Speaker 33: the ground in a country for an indefinite period of time. 2346 02:11:57,720 --> 02:12:01,200 Speaker 33: The President has never suggested, but that's something he's looking 2347 02:12:01,240 --> 02:12:04,760 Speaker 33: to do. He has consistently suggested that he wants to 2348 02:12:04,760 --> 02:12:08,760 Speaker 33: get rid of Iran's nuclear program, and finally everybody's seeing 2349 02:12:08,800 --> 02:12:12,200 Speaker 33: that he was actually serious about what he said from 2350 02:12:12,280 --> 02:12:13,040 Speaker 33: the very beginning. 2351 02:12:13,240 --> 02:12:15,360 Speaker 22: Please negotiate, Okay. 2352 02:12:15,040 --> 02:12:16,040 Speaker 33: You don't want to negotiate. 2353 02:12:16,120 --> 02:12:17,919 Speaker 18: I'm going to get rid of your nuclear program. 2354 02:12:18,640 --> 02:12:20,880 Speaker 33: It's amazing to me that Trump has been around for 2355 02:12:20,960 --> 02:12:23,760 Speaker 33: ten years and people have still not figured out that 2356 02:12:23,800 --> 02:12:25,840 Speaker 33: when he says something, he means it. 2357 02:12:27,440 --> 02:12:27,680 Speaker 34: Yeah. 2358 02:12:28,120 --> 02:12:30,680 Speaker 12: I couldn't agree more. Steve Gruber, I want to go 2359 02:12:30,680 --> 02:12:33,280 Speaker 12: to you because you know you're in America's heartland. You're 2360 02:12:33,320 --> 02:12:35,840 Speaker 12: in Michigan, which, more than just being the heartland, is 2361 02:12:35,880 --> 02:12:39,320 Speaker 12: also a key swing state in these last few elections. 2362 02:12:39,360 --> 02:12:42,360 Speaker 12: I mean, you can't put It's hardly a more important 2363 02:12:42,360 --> 02:12:46,120 Speaker 12: state to the United States right now, Steve, how do 2364 02:12:46,160 --> 02:12:49,600 Speaker 12: you think the people in Michigan are going to respond 2365 02:12:49,680 --> 02:12:52,080 Speaker 12: to this news? Haven't responding to this news of Operation 2366 02:12:52,200 --> 02:12:54,600 Speaker 12: Midnight Hammer. Do you think there's going to be And now, 2367 02:12:54,640 --> 02:12:57,800 Speaker 12: of course you have also a significant Arab American population 2368 02:12:57,880 --> 02:12:59,640 Speaker 12: in Michigan, which, by the way, he did not vote 2369 02:12:59,680 --> 02:13:02,600 Speaker 12: in large numbers against Donald Trump in the election in November, 2370 02:13:02,640 --> 02:13:03,120 Speaker 12: as we know. 2371 02:13:03,440 --> 02:13:04,760 Speaker 13: So I mean, do you think that this will be 2372 02:13:04,800 --> 02:13:07,280 Speaker 13: taken in an interesting one? Because I remember, Iran is 2373 02:13:07,320 --> 02:13:10,000 Speaker 13: not in an Arab country. It's a Muslim country. 2374 02:13:10,120 --> 02:13:12,600 Speaker 12: It's been looking to dominate the Arab people, but it's 2375 02:13:12,640 --> 02:13:14,800 Speaker 12: not an Arab country. I mean, am I crazy to 2376 02:13:14,800 --> 02:13:16,960 Speaker 12: say that there may actually be support for this among 2377 02:13:17,040 --> 02:13:20,400 Speaker 12: a critical mass of people in Michigan, both Arab, non 2378 02:13:20,440 --> 02:13:22,800 Speaker 12: Arab American born, et cetera. 2379 02:13:24,240 --> 02:13:26,000 Speaker 18: We're gonna have to see how that plays out over 2380 02:13:26,000 --> 02:13:29,400 Speaker 18: the next few days, few weeks and see how this 2381 02:13:29,560 --> 02:13:32,520 Speaker 18: operation continues. Right now, it looks like a one and 2382 02:13:32,560 --> 02:13:35,200 Speaker 18: done operation midnight hammer does. We're not sure where it's 2383 02:13:35,240 --> 02:13:38,320 Speaker 18: going to go. The President obviously not tipping his hand 2384 02:13:38,400 --> 02:13:40,240 Speaker 18: ever to what's going on. But you have to go 2385 02:13:40,280 --> 02:13:42,839 Speaker 18: back a few days to the situation room. The decision 2386 02:13:42,920 --> 02:13:45,080 Speaker 18: was made there. What was that Tuesday of this week? 2387 02:13:45,560 --> 02:13:47,360 Speaker 18: The decision was made in the situation room at the 2388 02:13:47,400 --> 02:13:49,280 Speaker 18: White House at that time, and he came out and said, look, 2389 02:13:49,280 --> 02:13:52,640 Speaker 18: we're going to try for a couple more negotiations. The 2390 02:13:53,160 --> 02:13:56,720 Speaker 18: Iranian delegation end up in what Geneva. None of that mattered. 2391 02:13:56,880 --> 02:13:59,080 Speaker 18: This decision was made. And so when I come to 2392 02:13:59,080 --> 02:14:02,000 Speaker 18: the heartland of swings, it's like Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin. You 2393 02:14:02,000 --> 02:14:03,520 Speaker 18: do have to look at how the electric's going to 2394 02:14:03,560 --> 02:14:05,560 Speaker 18: take this. I believe they'll be fine with it. I 2395 02:14:05,600 --> 02:14:07,320 Speaker 18: believe overall they'll be fine with it. Yes, there's a 2396 02:14:07,400 --> 02:14:10,720 Speaker 18: huge Middle Eastern population in Dearborn, in that part of 2397 02:14:10,760 --> 02:14:13,440 Speaker 18: the state down around Detroit. Now, having said that, you 2398 02:14:13,480 --> 02:14:15,320 Speaker 18: have to look at the fact that the mayor in 2399 02:14:15,400 --> 02:14:17,720 Speaker 18: Dearborn Heights and other places in that part of the 2400 02:14:17,720 --> 02:14:20,880 Speaker 18: state of Michigan, indorse Donald Trump prior to the twenty 2401 02:14:20,880 --> 02:14:22,800 Speaker 18: twenty four election. I don't think there's changed that. You 2402 02:14:22,840 --> 02:14:25,840 Speaker 18: go back again to Saudi Arabia, who says they don't 2403 02:14:25,840 --> 02:14:28,920 Speaker 18: want nuclear weapons, but they were clear this week was 2404 02:14:28,960 --> 02:14:31,920 Speaker 18: the Crown Prince and he said, if there are nuclear 2405 02:14:31,920 --> 02:14:34,040 Speaker 18: weapons in Iran, we will have them in short order. 2406 02:14:34,080 --> 02:14:37,920 Speaker 18: Here paraphrasing a little bit, but that's the concern because 2407 02:14:37,960 --> 02:14:41,120 Speaker 18: even the neighbors of Iran in the Middle East don't 2408 02:14:41,160 --> 02:14:44,040 Speaker 18: trust that country. They don't trust them to be good neighbors, 2409 02:14:44,040 --> 02:14:46,080 Speaker 18: to be safe. And again I come back to what 2410 02:14:46,480 --> 02:14:50,000 Speaker 18: Matt was saying. Yes, they want intercoind ballistic missiles. They 2411 02:14:50,000 --> 02:14:53,480 Speaker 18: want ICBMs to deliver warheads to the United States, to 2412 02:14:53,520 --> 02:14:55,640 Speaker 18: the shores of this country. So when people say, why 2413 02:14:55,680 --> 02:14:59,120 Speaker 18: is it our business, because it's your family, your children, 2414 02:14:59,200 --> 02:15:02,200 Speaker 18: your grandchildren face the threat of Iran. When people look 2415 02:15:02,280 --> 02:15:04,520 Speaker 18: you in the eye and say deaf to America, believe 2416 02:15:04,560 --> 02:15:07,160 Speaker 18: what they say. It's what they think. It's their philosophy 2417 02:15:07,160 --> 02:15:08,640 Speaker 18: for all these years. And I want to add one 2418 02:15:08,640 --> 02:15:10,720 Speaker 18: more thing to all of this, and that is where 2419 02:15:10,720 --> 02:15:13,360 Speaker 18: does China come down. China gets twenty to twenty five 2420 02:15:13,360 --> 02:15:16,120 Speaker 18: percent of its oil out the back door. By the way, 2421 02:15:16,400 --> 02:15:19,720 Speaker 18: on the black market from Iran, and this will hurt 2422 02:15:20,000 --> 02:15:25,120 Speaker 18: dictator she cheesing pink, will be hurt economically to a point. 2423 02:15:25,120 --> 02:15:27,080 Speaker 18: By this, you're seeing the Iranians now saying they have 2424 02:15:27,160 --> 02:15:30,000 Speaker 18: voted to close the Strait of Hormuz. Well, if they 2425 02:15:30,040 --> 02:15:33,760 Speaker 18: do that, the oil delivery systems to China and elsewhere 2426 02:15:33,800 --> 02:15:37,000 Speaker 18: will be constricted. China's already got problems with its economy. 2427 02:15:37,120 --> 02:15:40,920 Speaker 18: China has already got problems internally with its people because 2428 02:15:40,920 --> 02:15:44,640 Speaker 18: of the economic pressures levied by tariffs and so forth. 2429 02:15:44,680 --> 02:15:47,840 Speaker 18: By this president again, Donald Trump does exactly what he 2430 02:15:47,840 --> 02:15:49,520 Speaker 18: says he's going to do, and let's put America first, 2431 02:15:49,520 --> 02:15:52,640 Speaker 18: so he's not concerned with China on oil and so forth. 2432 02:15:52,640 --> 02:15:56,640 Speaker 18: But China is facing a problem here because the further 2433 02:15:56,680 --> 02:16:00,520 Speaker 18: constrictor economy oil is It's seventy seven dollars today. Ten 2434 02:16:00,600 --> 02:16:02,880 Speaker 18: days ago, it was at sixty two dollars of fifteen 2435 02:16:02,920 --> 02:16:06,160 Speaker 18: dollars a barrel already on the open market. Looking at 2436 02:16:06,160 --> 02:16:09,560 Speaker 18: what's Texas Intermediate and Brent Krue, the benchmark here at 2437 02:16:09,600 --> 02:16:12,680 Speaker 18: seventy seven dollars and a half now is is creeping up. 2438 02:16:13,400 --> 02:16:16,040 Speaker 18: These are things to watch. How China reacts is important 2439 02:16:16,040 --> 02:16:18,880 Speaker 18: in this. Russia also gets oil from Ron, so it 2440 02:16:18,920 --> 02:16:21,840 Speaker 18: is North Korea. This is their partner in crime, if 2441 02:16:21,880 --> 02:16:25,800 Speaker 18: you will, that supports this network of terraces of Hezbollah 2442 02:16:25,880 --> 02:16:29,040 Speaker 18: and Hamas and all the rest. So this is going 2443 02:16:29,080 --> 02:16:30,640 Speaker 18: to be an interesting thing to watch as to how 2444 02:16:30,880 --> 02:16:33,840 Speaker 18: those countries react to what has happened. But I say, 2445 02:16:34,720 --> 02:16:37,160 Speaker 18: I think here in Michigan, people are going to applaud 2446 02:16:37,160 --> 02:16:39,320 Speaker 18: the move by the president. Didn't put boots on the ground, 2447 02:16:39,760 --> 02:16:43,400 Speaker 18: devastated their nuclear infrastructure. We believe we obviously were waiting 2448 02:16:43,400 --> 02:16:45,480 Speaker 18: for more intel, but it looks like fortoh and the 2449 02:16:45,560 --> 02:16:48,520 Speaker 18: tans of these other places got hit hard. Fourteen of 2450 02:16:48,560 --> 02:16:53,800 Speaker 18: those moobs got dropped into the key Iranian nuclear facilities. 2451 02:16:54,400 --> 02:16:57,320 Speaker 18: It's what they voted for is to protect this country first, 2452 02:16:57,879 --> 02:16:59,760 Speaker 18: America first, and I think that most people are going 2453 02:16:59,800 --> 02:17:00,400 Speaker 18: to be okay with it. 2454 02:17:00,520 --> 02:17:02,959 Speaker 13: Jake, Yeah, I agree. 2455 02:17:03,160 --> 02:17:05,040 Speaker 12: We have a great panel here if Steve Ruber from 2456 02:17:05,080 --> 02:17:09,520 Speaker 12: America's Voice Live. We have Matt Farachi, political strategist and 2457 02:17:09,600 --> 02:17:12,840 Speaker 12: also a podcaster. We have David Zier in Washington, d C. 2458 02:17:12,959 --> 02:17:15,480 Speaker 12: And we have Frank Gaffney. I want everyone to watch 2459 02:17:16,640 --> 02:17:19,760 Speaker 12: Prime Minister Nitsanyahu's response. Many of you may have not 2460 02:17:19,879 --> 02:17:23,200 Speaker 12: seen this. This is Prime Minister in Nisanyahu's response to 2461 02:17:23,320 --> 02:17:26,920 Speaker 12: the news of Operation Midnight Hammer. And then I'm going 2462 02:17:26,959 --> 02:17:28,800 Speaker 12: to get the panel's reactions to this, because I think 2463 02:17:28,800 --> 02:17:30,240 Speaker 12: there's a lot to unpack here as well. 2464 02:17:30,320 --> 02:17:30,840 Speaker 13: Check it out. 2465 02:17:31,360 --> 02:17:36,840 Speaker 34: Congratulations, President Trump, Your bold decision to target Iran's nuclear 2466 02:17:36,879 --> 02:17:40,320 Speaker 34: facilities with the awesome and righteous might of the United 2467 02:17:40,320 --> 02:17:46,240 Speaker 34: States will change history. In Operation Rising Line, Israel has 2468 02:17:46,240 --> 02:17:50,640 Speaker 34: done truly amazing things. But in tonight's action against Iran's 2469 02:17:50,720 --> 02:17:57,160 Speaker 34: nuclear facilities, America has been truly unsurpassed. It has done 2470 02:17:57,200 --> 02:18:01,680 Speaker 34: what no other country on Earth could do. History will 2471 02:18:01,720 --> 02:18:05,959 Speaker 34: record that President Trump acted to deny the world's most 2472 02:18:06,040 --> 02:18:11,600 Speaker 34: dangerous regime the world's most dangerous weapons. His leadership today 2473 02:18:12,200 --> 02:18:15,160 Speaker 34: has created a pivot of history that can help lead 2474 02:18:15,200 --> 02:18:18,679 Speaker 34: the Middle East and beyond to a future of prosperity 2475 02:18:19,080 --> 02:18:24,680 Speaker 34: and peace. President Trump and I often say peace through strength. 2476 02:18:25,800 --> 02:18:30,840 Speaker 34: First comes strength, then comes peace. And tonight President Trump 2477 02:18:30,879 --> 02:18:34,320 Speaker 34: and the United States acted with a lot of strength. 2478 02:18:35,480 --> 02:18:39,560 Speaker 34: President Trump, I thank you the people of Israel, thank 2479 02:18:39,600 --> 02:18:41,720 Speaker 34: you the forces of civilization. 2480 02:18:41,879 --> 02:18:42,240 Speaker 8: Thank you. 2481 02:18:43,160 --> 02:18:47,279 Speaker 34: God bless America, God bless Israel, and may God bless 2482 02:18:47,320 --> 02:18:50,720 Speaker 34: our unshakable alliance, our unbreakable faith. 2483 02:18:52,879 --> 02:18:55,320 Speaker 12: Let's start with David Zeir. David, I thought that BB 2484 02:18:55,440 --> 02:18:57,600 Speaker 12: and Donald Trump had broken up. They were having a 2485 02:18:57,600 --> 02:19:00,600 Speaker 12: big fight. I heard the left and people who Israel 2486 02:19:00,920 --> 02:19:03,320 Speaker 12: dancing in the streets a couple of nights ago, saying 2487 02:19:03,320 --> 02:19:04,840 Speaker 12: this is the end of their relationship. 2488 02:19:05,040 --> 02:19:08,720 Speaker 16: Not so much, right, David, No, naw, who wasn't going 2489 02:19:08,760 --> 02:19:11,320 Speaker 16: to visit Joe Biden. He went to the Southern White 2490 02:19:11,360 --> 02:19:13,080 Speaker 16: House to visit Donald Trump. 2491 02:19:12,800 --> 02:19:13,720 Speaker 19: Earlier in the year. 2492 02:19:14,600 --> 02:19:18,320 Speaker 16: You know, they know what has to be done, Israel 2493 02:19:18,400 --> 02:19:21,440 Speaker 16: being a key ally for the United States here. But 2494 02:19:21,800 --> 02:19:25,840 Speaker 16: I would just express you know, there's definitely concern out there. 2495 02:19:26,200 --> 02:19:30,080 Speaker 16: You know, the UAE in Turkey and Turkey are upset 2496 02:19:30,120 --> 02:19:34,000 Speaker 16: about this escalation. Russia's condemning it. Saudi Arabia, who would 2497 02:19:34,000 --> 02:19:36,960 Speaker 16: ever think. Now, Trump opened the door with net and 2498 02:19:37,040 --> 02:19:40,240 Speaker 16: Yahoo and the Middle East, the Abraham Accords, the three 2499 02:19:40,320 --> 02:19:44,560 Speaker 16: other Piece deals, allowing Israel to use Saudi Arabia's airspace 2500 02:19:44,600 --> 02:19:47,080 Speaker 16: for the first time, even for civilian and military. 2501 02:19:47,200 --> 02:19:48,840 Speaker 19: Now that was reversed under Biden. 2502 02:19:49,320 --> 02:19:52,200 Speaker 16: But that relationship is back, and it's probably stronger than 2503 02:19:52,240 --> 02:19:55,400 Speaker 16: ever at this point here. But you know, the Gulf 2504 02:19:55,440 --> 02:19:59,400 Speaker 16: states are definitely concerned about infrastructure getting struck. 2505 02:20:00,040 --> 02:20:03,320 Speaker 19: You know, we have our bases in Bahrain, we have bases. 2506 02:20:03,360 --> 02:20:07,920 Speaker 16: In Iraq that were attacked after we killed Solomoni under 2507 02:20:07,920 --> 02:20:12,400 Speaker 16: the first Trump administration. But Saudi Arabia, Oman and Iraq, 2508 02:20:12,480 --> 02:20:15,360 Speaker 16: of course, you know, condemned the US strikes. But you 2509 02:20:15,360 --> 02:20:17,360 Speaker 16: know who would think Saudi Arabia, right, you got to 2510 02:20:17,360 --> 02:20:20,360 Speaker 16: hoo the rebels blowing up the Saudi Arabian airports for 2511 02:20:20,480 --> 02:20:23,760 Speaker 16: years and years and years and affecting shipping lanes and 2512 02:20:23,800 --> 02:20:28,840 Speaker 16: shooting missiles, you know. But they're concerned about the fallout 2513 02:20:29,280 --> 02:20:31,560 Speaker 16: from this. So I think the next few weeks are 2514 02:20:31,600 --> 02:20:34,840 Speaker 16: going to be really telling here, you know, because it's 2515 02:20:34,840 --> 02:20:38,760 Speaker 16: a victory right now, but it's something very close to watch. 2516 02:20:39,000 --> 02:20:44,000 Speaker 16: And I just wanted to add those Gulf states, Oman, Uae, Iraq. 2517 02:20:44,560 --> 02:20:47,840 Speaker 16: They're concerned also about environmental damage that could be done. 2518 02:20:48,280 --> 02:20:51,240 Speaker 16: Things stop blowing up, if there's radiation leaked, you know, 2519 02:20:51,320 --> 02:20:53,640 Speaker 16: all kinds of stuff. Like I said earlier, sixty million 2520 02:20:53,680 --> 02:20:56,600 Speaker 16: people get their drinking water from desalinization plans through the 2521 02:20:56,600 --> 02:20:57,320 Speaker 16: Persian Gulf. 2522 02:20:58,080 --> 02:20:59,119 Speaker 19: This is a tightrope. 2523 02:20:59,240 --> 02:21:02,840 Speaker 16: This is something something that can be taken lightly but 2524 02:21:02,920 --> 02:21:06,080 Speaker 16: I think the Netanyahu Trump relationship is stronger than ever. 2525 02:21:07,600 --> 02:21:09,800 Speaker 12: All right, David Zier, We're going to be right back 2526 02:21:09,800 --> 02:21:12,680 Speaker 12: with more on our live coverage here of Operation Midnight Hammer, 2527 02:21:12,800 --> 02:21:14,480 Speaker 12: here on Real America's Voice. 2528 02:21:14,840 --> 02:21:16,200 Speaker 13: The party is on. 2529 02:21:22,320 --> 02:21:25,400 Speaker 1: The party is on, and so that is our analysis 2530 02:21:25,440 --> 02:21:26,800 Speaker 1: this morning.

This has been the live coverage. 2547 02:22:11,120 --> 02:22:14,160 Speaker 12: We are well into our third hour, almost three hours 2548 02:22:14,200 --> 02:22:16,480 Speaker 12: complete right now, talking about what we now know is 2549 02:22:16,520 --> 02:22:19,640 Speaker 12: being called Operation Midnight Hammer. I want to go to 2550 02:22:19,640 --> 02:22:24,040 Speaker 12: Frank Gaffney. Frank, we played before the break Prime Minister 2551 02:22:24,120 --> 02:22:29,080 Speaker 12: Nittanya Who's response to Operation Midnight Hammer his very deep 2552 02:22:29,080 --> 02:22:33,600 Speaker 12: gratitude express to President Trump. Some people are absolutely going 2553 02:22:33,680 --> 02:22:37,120 Speaker 12: to make this all about some kind of slavishness to 2554 02:22:37,160 --> 02:22:39,840 Speaker 12: President Trump and not really the bigger picture. 2555 02:22:40,080 --> 02:22:42,680 Speaker 13: It goes well beyond their personal relationship, doesn't it. 2556 02:22:42,720 --> 02:22:47,000 Speaker 14: Frank Oh assured length And I think what Babe said, 2557 02:22:47,040 --> 02:22:51,760 Speaker 14: which was pitch perfect, is this is about changing the 2558 02:22:51,840 --> 02:22:57,880 Speaker 14: course of history. No, it's fairly infrequent that one understands 2559 02:22:57,879 --> 02:23:01,240 Speaker 14: that you're in the midst of that kind of transformation 2560 02:23:02,160 --> 02:23:05,320 Speaker 14: when it's taking place, but this is unmistakably the case. 2561 02:23:05,680 --> 02:23:08,199 Speaker 14: And he also made the key point, I think, Jake, 2562 02:23:08,280 --> 02:23:12,440 Speaker 14: that this is about Western civilization, or if you will, 2563 02:23:12,520 --> 02:23:16,320 Speaker 14: Judeo Christian civilization. That's what's on the line here. It's 2564 02:23:16,440 --> 02:23:20,920 Speaker 14: not just it's not just America, it's not even just 2565 02:23:21,200 --> 02:23:23,680 Speaker 14: Europe and you know other parts of the world. It's 2566 02:23:23,720 --> 02:23:28,960 Speaker 14: about the civilized world, which is exactly what these Mullah's 2567 02:23:29,040 --> 02:23:30,840 Speaker 14: in or On are trying to take down and have 2568 02:23:30,959 --> 02:23:33,560 Speaker 14: been since they came to power. And if I could 2569 02:23:33,640 --> 02:23:36,400 Speaker 14: just take a minute to respond to something Steve said. 2570 02:23:36,440 --> 02:23:39,800 Speaker 14: His analysis I think is right. But the American people 2571 02:23:39,840 --> 02:23:44,039 Speaker 14: are with Donald Trump on this. We've been witnessing, unfortunately, 2572 02:23:44,080 --> 02:23:48,040 Speaker 14: a little bit of a sort of fratricidal exercise going 2573 02:23:48,080 --> 02:23:50,680 Speaker 14: on amongst MAGA, and I think it's important to drill 2574 02:23:50,720 --> 02:23:54,680 Speaker 14: down on this at this particular moment in time. It's 2575 02:23:54,680 --> 02:23:57,640 Speaker 14: been underway, I think, mostly at the hands of a 2576 02:23:57,680 --> 02:23:59,560 Speaker 14: lot of younger folks. I call it a kind of 2577 02:23:59,640 --> 02:24:04,080 Speaker 14: children crusade, a push to say, none of this is 2578 02:24:04,120 --> 02:24:07,720 Speaker 14: our business. Piece is all about, you know, staying home 2579 02:24:07,760 --> 02:24:10,600 Speaker 14: and minding our own business. And it doesn't matter what 2580 02:24:10,600 --> 02:24:12,560 Speaker 14: happens to Israel. It doesn't matter what happens to the 2581 02:24:12,600 --> 02:24:17,600 Speaker 14: people in Iran. I think adults, and notably amongst them, 2582 02:24:18,000 --> 02:24:22,840 Speaker 14: the large number of Christian adults who are I think 2583 02:24:22,879 --> 02:24:26,000 Speaker 14: the majority of the LAGA base, by the way, are 2584 02:24:26,200 --> 02:24:30,680 Speaker 14: four dealing with this in the kind of way Donald 2585 02:24:30,720 --> 02:24:34,600 Speaker 14: Trump is done and all I'm compleading for one more 2586 02:24:34,640 --> 02:24:37,080 Speaker 14: time in the course of this program, You've given me 2587 02:24:37,120 --> 02:24:39,480 Speaker 14: a chance to say this, but I think it's absolutely 2588 02:24:39,520 --> 02:24:41,800 Speaker 14: imperative that it be part of what we take away 2589 02:24:42,320 --> 02:24:46,920 Speaker 14: from everything we've heard, everything we've discussed. Will history be 2590 02:24:47,080 --> 02:24:54,560 Speaker 14: determined with an ongoing presence of the Iotola's, the Mullahs, 2591 02:24:54,680 --> 02:24:58,920 Speaker 14: the Sharia supremacists in Iran continuing to do what they 2592 02:24:59,000 --> 02:25:02,040 Speaker 14: can to take down was stern civilization or will it 2593 02:25:02,120 --> 02:25:06,240 Speaker 14: be defined by the people of Iran finally, at last 2594 02:25:06,320 --> 02:25:09,880 Speaker 14: having a chance of free themselves and free Iran and 2595 02:25:09,959 --> 02:25:14,480 Speaker 14: bring it back into that western civilized world. And I 2596 02:25:14,520 --> 02:25:17,480 Speaker 14: think this turns now not on American force of arms, 2597 02:25:17,959 --> 02:25:21,760 Speaker 14: not even on President Trump's leadership. It's just a matter 2598 02:25:21,840 --> 02:25:25,640 Speaker 14: of allowing the Israelis to do what I believe they 2599 02:25:25,680 --> 02:25:29,320 Speaker 14: know must be done, which is to end the regime 2600 02:25:29,680 --> 02:25:33,720 Speaker 14: in Iran and the security apparatus that keeps the people 2601 02:25:33,800 --> 02:25:39,640 Speaker 14: there terrified and repressed and enslaved. And if those things 2602 02:25:39,720 --> 02:25:45,920 Speaker 14: take place, Phoebi's absolutely right, Western civilization will prosper, Iran 2603 02:25:46,040 --> 02:25:50,640 Speaker 14: will prosper, Israel will prosper, The United States will prosper. 2604 02:25:51,080 --> 02:25:54,800 Speaker 14: And last point, the alternative is to leave in place 2605 02:25:54,840 --> 02:25:59,959 Speaker 14: people who can command at any time attacks on our 2606 02:26:00,120 --> 02:26:03,320 Speaker 14: forces in the Gulf, of course, more attacks on Israel, 2607 02:26:03,920 --> 02:26:10,280 Speaker 14: and the operational attacks inside our own country by the 2608 02:26:10,360 --> 02:26:14,160 Speaker 14: Cells and the Jesus assassination teams that They've put here 2609 02:26:14,280 --> 02:26:18,840 Speaker 14: all of these reasons argue, I think convincingly for doing 2610 02:26:18,879 --> 02:26:22,720 Speaker 14: what's the vast majority I'm convinced of MAGA, to say 2611 02:26:22,760 --> 02:26:26,039 Speaker 14: nothing of the American people want, which is a decisive 2612 02:26:26,440 --> 02:26:29,320 Speaker 14: victory at last. We haven't had one, really since World 2613 02:26:29,320 --> 02:26:31,879 Speaker 14: War Two. This is one we can get and we 2614 02:26:31,920 --> 02:26:34,720 Speaker 14: don't have to do it ourselves. God bless Israel, God 2615 02:26:34,760 --> 02:26:36,360 Speaker 14: bless you. Thank you. 2616 02:26:36,800 --> 02:26:40,960 Speaker 12: Yeah, Matt Faraci, your thoughts on what Frank Affney just said. 2617 02:26:41,040 --> 02:26:42,360 Speaker 13: I'd like to get your overall thoughts. 2618 02:26:42,400 --> 02:26:45,600 Speaker 12: I'd like you to address specifically the people who aren't 2619 02:26:45,640 --> 02:26:48,240 Speaker 12: so sure about this. I'm not talking about the crazy 2620 02:26:48,240 --> 02:26:49,640 Speaker 12: Trump deraigned syndrome people. 2621 02:26:49,640 --> 02:26:51,400 Speaker 13: Who if he says two plus two equals for they'll 2622 02:26:51,440 --> 02:26:51,960 Speaker 13: say it's five. 2623 02:26:52,320 --> 02:26:54,880 Speaker 12: I'm not talking about the people who are so anti 2624 02:26:55,000 --> 02:26:58,320 Speaker 12: American and anti Israel that they can't be reason with. 2625 02:26:58,560 --> 02:27:00,880 Speaker 12: I'd like you, Matt Farachi, to address those people who 2626 02:27:00,920 --> 02:27:03,840 Speaker 12: are saying, this morning, I want to trust President Trump, 2627 02:27:04,040 --> 02:27:06,680 Speaker 12: I want to trust our military, but I'm not so 2628 02:27:06,720 --> 02:27:07,280 Speaker 12: sure about this. 2629 02:27:07,320 --> 02:27:08,160 Speaker 13: What would you say to them? 2630 02:27:08,160 --> 02:27:08,280 Speaker 14: Then? 2631 02:27:09,800 --> 02:27:12,520 Speaker 33: Well, as somebody that goes back and forth between the 2632 02:27:12,640 --> 02:27:15,920 Speaker 33: United States and Israel constantly. One of the things that 2633 02:27:15,959 --> 02:27:18,720 Speaker 33: I've appreciated is that the more time you spend in 2634 02:27:18,760 --> 02:27:21,920 Speaker 33: the Middle East, the more you realize that the average 2635 02:27:21,959 --> 02:27:24,520 Speaker 33: American and this is not an insult, it's just a fact, 2636 02:27:24,800 --> 02:27:27,720 Speaker 33: the average American does not understand the culture over there. 2637 02:27:27,959 --> 02:27:31,080 Speaker 33: It is vastly different than the culture in the United 2638 02:27:31,120 --> 02:27:34,160 Speaker 33: States or anything that we may be familiar with in Europe. 2639 02:27:34,160 --> 02:27:38,760 Speaker 33: Although goodness, the way Europe's going that may come back 2640 02:27:38,800 --> 02:27:41,920 Speaker 33: to bite me. The way that it works in the 2641 02:27:41,920 --> 02:27:44,320 Speaker 33: Middle East is that the only thing that people take 2642 02:27:44,400 --> 02:27:48,680 Speaker 33: seriously is the threat of force. Why do you think 2643 02:27:48,760 --> 02:27:51,240 Speaker 33: Israel is so heavily armed and why do you think 2644 02:27:51,240 --> 02:27:55,040 Speaker 33: the IDF is so prepared all the time, because they 2645 02:27:55,120 --> 02:27:59,080 Speaker 33: know that the only way to deter terrorism is force. 2646 02:27:59,680 --> 02:28:02,160 Speaker 33: So the fact is that I think the mulas here 2647 02:28:02,200 --> 02:28:06,280 Speaker 33: made a miscalculation, which was that every single US regime 2648 02:28:06,560 --> 02:28:10,600 Speaker 33: or US administration, sorry, before President Trump had said, hey, 2649 02:28:11,000 --> 02:28:13,040 Speaker 33: line in the sand, if you remember Obama, line in 2650 02:28:13,080 --> 02:28:14,440 Speaker 33: the sand, We're not going to allow you to have 2651 02:28:14,480 --> 02:28:18,440 Speaker 33: a nuclear weapon some weeks ago, and it was credited 2652 02:28:18,480 --> 02:28:21,560 Speaker 33: to President Trump, this statement that Iran has never won 2653 02:28:21,600 --> 02:28:24,640 Speaker 33: a war, but has never lost a negotiation. And so 2654 02:28:24,720 --> 02:28:27,640 Speaker 33: when the President said we're not going to allow you 2655 02:28:27,680 --> 02:28:28,119 Speaker 33: to do this. 2656 02:28:28,680 --> 02:28:30,280 Speaker 18: He had to back that up. 2657 02:28:30,400 --> 02:28:34,400 Speaker 33: If Iran was not ultimately willing to divest themselves of 2658 02:28:34,440 --> 02:28:37,480 Speaker 33: their nuclear program, Trump was going to have. 2659 02:28:37,400 --> 02:28:38,080 Speaker 18: To back that up. 2660 02:28:38,080 --> 02:28:41,320 Speaker 33: And here's what I think the most salient point. There 2661 02:28:41,360 --> 02:28:45,279 Speaker 33: are those critiquing the administration and saying Trump is starting. 2662 02:28:44,920 --> 02:28:48,640 Speaker 18: World War three. It is just the opposite. 2663 02:28:48,959 --> 02:28:52,760 Speaker 33: Trump has made this move to stop world War three, 2664 02:28:53,080 --> 02:28:57,879 Speaker 33: to prevent world War three, to remove the Just imagine Iran, 2665 02:28:57,920 --> 02:29:01,600 Speaker 33: which has obviously been allied with Russia, allied with China 2666 02:29:01,800 --> 02:29:06,520 Speaker 33: and some other bad actors. Imagine Iran, which was apparently 2667 02:29:06,600 --> 02:29:10,680 Speaker 33: very close to getting their first set of weapons, being 2668 02:29:10,720 --> 02:29:13,520 Speaker 33: allowed to continue to do that. Now you've got world 2669 02:29:13,600 --> 02:29:16,240 Speaker 33: War three. Now you've got the serious threat of World 2670 02:29:16,240 --> 02:29:19,360 Speaker 33: War three. Also, David, to your point about the Saudis, 2671 02:29:20,440 --> 02:29:22,760 Speaker 33: I personally think that was kind of a wink wink. 2672 02:29:23,160 --> 02:29:25,760 Speaker 33: They said what they felt they needed to say, but 2673 02:29:26,040 --> 02:29:28,279 Speaker 33: they knew this was happening. They'd talked to the President 2674 02:29:28,320 --> 02:29:32,320 Speaker 33: about this beforehand. Iran having a nuclear program is an 2675 02:29:32,360 --> 02:29:36,240 Speaker 33: existential threat to Saudi Arabia, and it's an existential threat 2676 02:29:36,440 --> 02:29:38,360 Speaker 33: to any of the other Gulf states. 2677 02:29:38,680 --> 02:29:40,520 Speaker 8: So they all can't stand iron. 2678 02:29:40,560 --> 02:29:42,760 Speaker 33: I was talking to a guy the other day from 2679 02:29:42,840 --> 02:29:46,960 Speaker 33: Ethiopia who was explaining that some of the terrorist activity 2680 02:29:47,000 --> 02:29:50,560 Speaker 33: in Ethiopia was funded by you guessed it, Iran. They 2681 02:29:50,600 --> 02:29:53,560 Speaker 33: are the bad guys of the world. Nobody likes them, 2682 02:29:54,160 --> 02:29:57,280 Speaker 33: and so I think what the President is doing here 2683 02:29:57,360 --> 02:30:00,959 Speaker 33: is proactively saying, no, we've got to stop World War three. 2684 02:30:01,320 --> 02:30:04,480 Speaker 33: That's precisely why I'm not going to let a country 2685 02:30:04,480 --> 02:30:07,279 Speaker 33: that would actually use nukes to have them. 2686 02:30:07,879 --> 02:30:10,120 Speaker 12: All Right, Matt for Actule, I want to thank you 2687 02:30:10,120 --> 02:30:12,720 Speaker 12: for joining us, and that was a good summary of 2688 02:30:12,720 --> 02:30:15,280 Speaker 12: everything that's going on. I want to bring in Real 2689 02:30:15,320 --> 02:30:18,959 Speaker 12: America's Voice contributor Mark Serrano, because you know, let's first 2690 02:30:19,000 --> 02:30:22,720 Speaker 12: start with that last point that we made about how 2691 02:30:22,840 --> 02:30:26,160 Speaker 12: Saudi Arabia, and you know, I've been on live events 2692 02:30:26,200 --> 02:30:29,000 Speaker 12: with Saudi Arabian officials where they say things like this, 2693 02:30:29,040 --> 02:30:31,320 Speaker 12: where they say like, well, we don't really love what 2694 02:30:31,320 --> 02:30:33,360 Speaker 12: Iran is doing, but we don't support it. 2695 02:30:33,400 --> 02:30:33,640 Speaker 19: Is reel. 2696 02:30:33,680 --> 02:30:35,560 Speaker 12: We don't support the United States doing this, And I 2697 02:30:35,600 --> 02:30:38,240 Speaker 12: often say, I understand your position because you have to 2698 02:30:38,280 --> 02:30:39,879 Speaker 12: say that publicly, and then I look at the audience 2699 02:30:39,920 --> 02:30:42,240 Speaker 12: and say, let me say what our extreme guests from 2700 02:30:42,240 --> 02:30:44,440 Speaker 12: Saudi Arabia is not allowed to say, but we know 2701 02:30:44,520 --> 02:30:46,120 Speaker 12: he's thinking. Of course, they all get really mad at 2702 02:30:46,120 --> 02:30:48,200 Speaker 12: me because they have to pretend they're upset. But believe me, 2703 02:30:48,480 --> 02:30:51,240 Speaker 12: they're grateful that I'm helping to say that Saudi Arabia 2704 02:30:51,280 --> 02:30:52,120 Speaker 12: is not going to be a problem. 2705 02:30:52,160 --> 02:30:54,959 Speaker 13: Here are they? You know, you know, Mark, this is 2706 02:30:54,959 --> 02:30:55,600 Speaker 13: not going to be an. 2707 02:30:55,480 --> 02:31:00,879 Speaker 32: Issue, absolutely, Jake. Look, there's policy and there's propaganda. And 2708 02:31:01,080 --> 02:31:04,680 Speaker 32: policy from these moderate Arab states is that Iran's been 2709 02:31:04,720 --> 02:31:07,160 Speaker 32: a threat for a long time and that threat needed 2710 02:31:07,200 --> 02:31:10,280 Speaker 32: to be eliminated and their delighted President Trump took this action. 2711 02:31:11,120 --> 02:31:15,800 Speaker 32: Then there's propaganda, which is their messaging can't necessarily come 2712 02:31:15,920 --> 02:31:19,440 Speaker 32: full force backing President Trump like bb net and Yahoo did. 2713 02:31:19,760 --> 02:31:22,720 Speaker 32: So there's a distinction between the policy and the propaganda. 2714 02:31:23,040 --> 02:31:26,320 Speaker 32: But make no doubt about it, they support President Trump 2715 02:31:26,440 --> 02:31:29,400 Speaker 32: and they were looking forward to a Middle East that 2716 02:31:29,600 --> 02:31:32,920 Speaker 32: can enjoy peace and prosperity. You know, if I made Jake, 2717 02:31:33,320 --> 02:31:37,920 Speaker 32: there is a big, big loser besides Iran in this 2718 02:31:38,040 --> 02:31:41,400 Speaker 32: development that took place yesterday, and it's the Legacy Media. 2719 02:31:42,240 --> 02:31:47,960 Speaker 32: Real America's Voice scooped Legacy Media on the biggest story 2720 02:31:48,200 --> 02:31:53,000 Speaker 32: of the year legacy media are. They're like the Itolah, 2721 02:31:53,080 --> 02:31:59,280 Speaker 32: the Ayatolahs of you know, news misinformation in America. They 2722 02:31:59,320 --> 02:32:02,800 Speaker 32: support cent They have attacked Donald Trump for ten years, 2723 02:32:02,879 --> 02:32:06,680 Speaker 32: and yet they got scooped because yesterday on his regular 2724 02:32:06,720 --> 02:32:10,480 Speaker 32: program from ten to twelve, our Steam colleague Steve Bannon, 2725 02:32:10,520 --> 02:32:13,800 Speaker 32: the host of War Room, he talked about the party 2726 02:32:13,879 --> 02:32:14,040 Speaker 32: is on. 2727 02:32:14,480 --> 02:32:16,000 Speaker 31: He knew his sources were. 2728 02:32:15,840 --> 02:32:18,640 Speaker 32: Telling him that this attack was going to take place, 2729 02:32:19,080 --> 02:32:21,760 Speaker 32: and Real America's Voice went live for most of the day, 2730 02:32:21,879 --> 02:32:25,119 Speaker 32: well into the late evening because we knew it was coming. 2731 02:32:25,200 --> 02:32:27,880 Speaker 32: Thanks to Steve Bannon. He met with the President on Thursday. 2732 02:32:28,280 --> 02:32:31,560 Speaker 32: He's been very vocal about his concerns about taking this 2733 02:32:31,640 --> 02:32:35,520 Speaker 32: action against Iran and what it means for our America, 2734 02:32:35,560 --> 02:32:40,000 Speaker 32: for his policies. But what's really striking to me is 2735 02:32:40,040 --> 02:32:42,440 Speaker 32: that the news media has egg underface. 2736 02:32:42,640 --> 02:32:47,320 Speaker 31: They are so misaligned with the American people. They blew it. 2737 02:32:47,440 --> 02:32:50,000 Speaker 32: They had no idea this was coming, and Real America's 2738 02:32:50,080 --> 02:32:53,000 Speaker 32: Voice did. And I'll make one last point about this, Jake. 2739 02:32:53,720 --> 02:32:57,760 Speaker 32: This Trump white House has embraced new media because they 2740 02:32:57,840 --> 02:33:02,360 Speaker 32: recognized the corruption within in corporate legacy media. We now 2741 02:33:02,440 --> 02:33:04,720 Speaker 32: have a seat at the table a front row seat 2742 02:33:04,760 --> 02:33:08,800 Speaker 32: in that briefing room, where David Zeer is there, where 2743 02:33:08,800 --> 02:33:11,920 Speaker 32: Brian Glenn reports from there every day of the week. 2744 02:33:12,959 --> 02:33:14,240 Speaker 15: And it's just. 2745 02:33:14,720 --> 02:33:19,880 Speaker 32: Mind blowing that we now have embraced this administration is 2746 02:33:19,959 --> 02:33:23,200 Speaker 32: embraced new media because they know that's where the American 2747 02:33:23,240 --> 02:33:27,480 Speaker 32: people get their news for real America's voice, and now 2748 02:33:27,640 --> 02:33:30,640 Speaker 32: they know breaking news starts right here. 2749 02:33:31,720 --> 02:33:33,080 Speaker 13: Yeah, well, said Marks Rhino. 2750 02:33:33,120 --> 02:33:35,280 Speaker 12: All right, we're just about to wrap up our coverage, 2751 02:33:35,280 --> 02:33:36,800 Speaker 12: our live coverage this morning, so I need to go 2752 02:33:36,840 --> 02:33:39,320 Speaker 12: around the horn from the three of you, Steve Grueber, 2753 02:33:39,640 --> 02:33:41,440 Speaker 12: David Zeer, and Frank Avene.
