1 00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:06,320 Speaker 1: Welcome back in Clay Travis buck Sexton Show Saturday. United 2 00:00:06,400 --> 00:00:13,720 Speaker 1: States attacks Iranian nuclear sites. Now Iran is responding in 3 00:00:13,840 --> 00:00:16,200 Speaker 1: real time as we. 4 00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:17,799 Speaker 2: Are talking to all of you. 5 00:00:18,040 --> 00:00:23,239 Speaker 1: There is footage playing of inside of Qatar missiles from 6 00:00:23,239 --> 00:00:29,120 Speaker 1: Iran fired at the US military base there. Iran has 7 00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:34,040 Speaker 1: announced that its official response is underway. They are reporting 8 00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:39,320 Speaker 1: that on Iranian state TV, that's their propaganda network. The 9 00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:44,800 Speaker 1: attack on the Qatari US base has begun. Also, other 10 00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:51,040 Speaker 1: Middle Eastern US forces now reportedly under attack as well, 11 00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:55,880 Speaker 1: and we are waiting to hear what the impact is 12 00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:59,480 Speaker 1: of the missiles that have been fired there. Again, this 13 00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:03,720 Speaker 1: is in real time as all of us are talking 14 00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:09,960 Speaker 1: with you. President Trump is with his top administrators right now, 15 00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:14,840 Speaker 1: Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth. 16 00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:20,840 Speaker 1: And the question again is how what is the impact 17 00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:23,640 Speaker 1: and the desire here? Buck, And this is where you, 18 00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:27,560 Speaker 1: as an intelligence analyst back in the day, would be 19 00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:30,560 Speaker 1: trying to scramble and assess. You and I were at Langley, 20 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:33,640 Speaker 1: We were on the CIA's campus just a couple of 21 00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:36,800 Speaker 1: weeks ago, just in advance by like a day or 22 00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:40,080 Speaker 1: so of the Israeli attack on Iran. 23 00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:42,520 Speaker 2: And you remember I can say this now. 24 00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:46,400 Speaker 1: I think I asked a question in a meeting and 25 00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:50,200 Speaker 1: about Iran because there hadn't been that many reports about 26 00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:52,360 Speaker 1: it to that point, and it was like, all of 27 00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:55,800 Speaker 1: a sudden, a veil of silence just descended on the 28 00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:58,920 Speaker 1: room where they were like, uh, you didn't have to 29 00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:01,240 Speaker 1: be an expert to know something might be a footway. 30 00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, And after I looked at Clay, I'm like, that 31 00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:06,480 Speaker 3: was weird. We're striking or there's a strike coming, I 32 00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:09,079 Speaker 3: should say, Israel striking Iran. It was pretty obvious. 33 00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:12,720 Speaker 1: So the question here, and I'll toss this to you, 34 00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:18,040 Speaker 1: is to what extent is this? And look, first of all, 35 00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:20,400 Speaker 1: we're praying, we want all of our forces in the 36 00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:22,080 Speaker 1: Middle East to be safe. I know many of you 37 00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:25,280 Speaker 1: out there listening may well have family members, friends. We're 38 00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:28,760 Speaker 1: going to give you the information as it is reported, 39 00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:32,000 Speaker 1: accurately to the best of our ability in a real time, 40 00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:36,840 Speaker 1: dynamic situation. Big picture here, Buck. The question that is 41 00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:39,680 Speaker 1: going to be integral and will go a long way 42 00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:43,960 Speaker 1: towards determining what our response is is how we assess 43 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:45,120 Speaker 1: what Iran is doing? 44 00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:47,040 Speaker 2: Is this a face saving? 45 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:47,359 Speaker 4: Hey? 46 00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:48,120 Speaker 3: Us? 47 00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:52,480 Speaker 1: You can't you know, rip our nuclear program to shreds 48 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:56,040 Speaker 1: without us doing something back. But it's a pulled punch, 49 00:02:56,480 --> 00:03:00,079 Speaker 1: meaning we knew it was coming. It's not designed to 50 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:07,480 Speaker 1: deliver massive consequences relatively speaking. Or do we judge this 51 00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:12,679 Speaker 1: to have been an acceleration beyond expected Iranian response? Much 52 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:16,360 Speaker 1: of this now is a dance of diplomacy through missile, 53 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:21,000 Speaker 1: which sounds complicated but actually is important here as we 54 00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:25,880 Speaker 1: try and determine the significance and severity of the Iranian response, 55 00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:29,160 Speaker 1: Is it face saving or is accelerating would be a 56 00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:31,480 Speaker 1: way I think to sum up what we have to 57 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:33,080 Speaker 1: analyze at this point in time. 58 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:38,120 Speaker 3: Well, I think it's the best the Iranians militarily can 59 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:43,280 Speaker 3: muster against the regional enemies that they want to attack 60 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:45,640 Speaker 3: and US, and these relations are the top of the list. 61 00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:50,320 Speaker 3: It's not that Iran. If Iran could level Tel Aviv tomorrow, 62 00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:53,920 Speaker 3: it would do so. The reason that Iran hasn't done 63 00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:57,760 Speaker 3: that is they can't do that. And that's also true 64 00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:03,840 Speaker 3: of their abilities here when it comes to hitting military 65 00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:06,840 Speaker 3: forces in the region. They also I think stay you know, 66 00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:10,080 Speaker 3: at some level, have to understand that if they were 67 00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:14,240 Speaker 3: to go after soft targets, non military targets, they would 68 00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:17,840 Speaker 3: invite much more extreme retaliation. Look, this is a country 69 00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:20,479 Speaker 3: that was, as I said, unable to protect its senior 70 00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:24,599 Speaker 3: military leadership, unable to protect nuclear scientists from getting blown 71 00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:28,440 Speaker 3: up in just their apartment buildings in like the corner 72 00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:32,120 Speaker 3: of the building where they happen to live. Unable to 73 00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:34,800 Speaker 3: do any of those things in the opening of a 74 00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:38,360 Speaker 3: conflict that they'd supposedly been preparing for for or early 75 00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 3: since the seventy nine revolution. In some way, yes, they're 76 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:44,719 Speaker 3: not militarily sophisticated as a country. That doesn't mean they're 77 00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 3: not dangerous. It just means they do not have a 78 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:52,560 Speaker 3: sophisticated first world military that can do. You know, Russia, 79 00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:55,599 Speaker 3: as we've seen, very different situation. We're talking about Russia 80 00:04:55,640 --> 00:05:00,400 Speaker 3: fighting against Ukraine. There you have you know, advanced lanes, 81 00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 3: advanced drones, advanced communications, a lot of firepower. You know 82 00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:08,800 Speaker 3: that they've they've got they've got stuff that can cause 83 00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:12,000 Speaker 3: a headache for anybody. The Russians do the Iranians, it's 84 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:14,479 Speaker 3: a little bit of a different situation. So I think 85 00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 3: what we'll see is probably these Iranians, uh, these Iranian missiles. Look, 86 00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:21,279 Speaker 3: I don't. I don't want to prejudge it. Let's see 87 00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:25,800 Speaker 3: what happens. Let's see what happens. If it's just the 88 00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:28,960 Speaker 3: strikes that hit bases and there's no major US casualties, 89 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:35,040 Speaker 3: I think Trump will repeat his calls for negotiations for 90 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:38,120 Speaker 3: some kind of I guess this these fire You know. 91 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:39,960 Speaker 3: The part of this that is really wide open to me, 92 00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:42,440 Speaker 3: and I haven't seen much clarity on this is we're 93 00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:44,320 Speaker 3: not going to push for regime change, but we all 94 00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:48,240 Speaker 3: I shouldn't say we all. The Trump administration wants a 95 00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 3: different regime but doesn't want to push and kind of 96 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:55,000 Speaker 3: topple the existing one more than what we've through, more 97 00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:58,600 Speaker 3: than what we've already done. Yeah, it feels like we're 98 00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:02,039 Speaker 3: going to head into this uneasy the status quo of 99 00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:06,560 Speaker 3: a somewhat defanged Iran that we're hoping wants to come 100 00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:09,159 Speaker 3: to the table and stop being crazy. But really, Clay, 101 00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:12,240 Speaker 3: the fundamental problem with all of this is that the 102 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:15,039 Speaker 3: people that run around are bad people. Yes, and I 103 00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:18,320 Speaker 3: mean crazy isn't really the right word, but there is 104 00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:22,279 Speaker 3: an ideological viciousness that is at the heart of the 105 00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:26,480 Speaker 3: theocracy that is Iran. And so I also look at 106 00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:29,720 Speaker 3: what happened in Syria. Yeah, finally the Assad regime came down. 107 00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:36,120 Speaker 3: It took thirteen years, and at one point early on 108 00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:42,080 Speaker 3: like twenty thirteen twenty twelve timeframe, there were suicide bombers, 109 00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:47,200 Speaker 3: Jihadi suicide bombers that were infiltrating like the equivalent of 110 00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:50,760 Speaker 3: Assad's Pentagon. I mean, they were right there knocking at 111 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:53,479 Speaker 3: the door. And the civil war was brutal, and the 112 00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:57,520 Speaker 3: Assad regime held on for a decade plus. Do you 113 00:06:57,520 --> 00:06:58,320 Speaker 3: have updates on this? 114 00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 1: I think I've got some information. This is the spokesperson 115 00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:08,800 Speaker 1: for Katar and this is a translation from Arabic. So 116 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:11,840 Speaker 1: all of this is on Twitter, all right, So obviously 117 00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:14,520 Speaker 1: I do not speak Arabic. I'm not translating this in 118 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:18,600 Speaker 1: real time. This is according to uh yeah, this is 119 00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:23,080 Speaker 1: according to the Google translations. This is Abu Abu Clay. 120 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:27,280 Speaker 1: Go ahead, Yes, this is my ATTIMPT. Here's what this 121 00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:28,880 Speaker 1: is what I want to get out because I know 122 00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:31,480 Speaker 1: there's a lot of people out there. We express the 123 00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:36,080 Speaker 1: State of Qatar strong condemnation of the attack on Al 124 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:40,480 Speaker 1: Yadid Air Base by the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps, consider 125 00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 1: it a flagrant violation of the State of Qatar's sovereignty, 126 00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:48,440 Speaker 1: sovereignty and airspace sovereignty, as well as of international law 127 00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:51,600 Speaker 1: and the United Nations Charter. We affirm the State of 128 00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:55,160 Speaker 1: Qatar reserves the right to respond directly in a manner 129 00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:58,440 Speaker 1: proportional to the nature and scale of this blatant aggression 130 00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 1: and in accordance with international law. Okay, we are reassured 131 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:09,760 Speaker 1: that Katari air defenses thwarted the attack and successfully intercepted 132 00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:13,560 Speaker 1: the Iranian missiles. The Ministry of Defense will issue a 133 00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:18,520 Speaker 1: statement clarifying the circumstances of the attack later. We also 134 00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:23,000 Speaker 1: affirm the continuation of such escalating military actions undermined security 135 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:29,920 Speaker 1: and stability in the region, and so the base has 136 00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:35,120 Speaker 1: been evacuated earlier in accordance with approved security and precautionary measures. 137 00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:36,680 Speaker 2: In light of the tensions. 138 00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 1: All necessary measures were taken to ensure the safety of 139 00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:41,280 Speaker 1: the base's personnel. 140 00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:44,520 Speaker 3: Okay, so so far, so good. We shot down their 141 00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:45,720 Speaker 3: stuff and we're looking Okay. 142 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:49,760 Speaker 1: No injuries or human losses occurred as a result of 143 00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:52,760 Speaker 1: the attack, according to this report which has just come 144 00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:57,080 Speaker 1: down that has not been publicly reported by anybody else. 145 00:08:57,200 --> 00:08:59,280 Speaker 1: But again, that is the Qatari spokesperson. 146 00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:02,600 Speaker 3: So this is looking so far like it's very similar 147 00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:07,000 Speaker 3: to the custom Solomoni retaliation, which was pretty much deminimus 148 00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:12,079 Speaker 3: from a military military damage perspective, and it was the 149 00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:17,480 Speaker 3: Iranian regime doing really what's within their power militarily, right. 150 00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:19,360 Speaker 3: I mean, this is something that I think a lot 151 00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:21,719 Speaker 3: of people when we talk about this, we have to 152 00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:24,440 Speaker 3: remember this when you talk about something like Hamas. I mean, 153 00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:28,280 Speaker 3: Hamas doesn't distinguish. In fact, Hamas prefers civilian targets. Not 154 00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:30,920 Speaker 3: only they're not distinguished military, civilian they prefer civily. They're 155 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:32,480 Speaker 3: not going to go after the IDF, They're gonna get 156 00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 3: their asses kicked. Hamas likes to go after you know, 157 00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:39,160 Speaker 3: elderly people, people in wheelchairs, children like. That's amass preferred 158 00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:43,760 Speaker 3: target set, which is heinous. And in the case of Iran, 159 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:48,200 Speaker 3: so far they are sticking to military to military response, 160 00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:50,520 Speaker 3: which is a different thing under the laws of war 161 00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:53,679 Speaker 3: and Geneva Conventions, et cetera. You know, this is something 162 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:58,079 Speaker 3: that you could say the Iranians are paying attention to. 163 00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:01,760 Speaker 3: Will they go and cross that line and go Hamas 164 00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:05,160 Speaker 3: and start having proxies on their behalf do this? You'd 165 00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:06,719 Speaker 3: have to wonder who are these proxies and what do 166 00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:09,240 Speaker 3: they think they're going to get out of this. I 167 00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:10,880 Speaker 3: think the message, you know, Clay, we can get into 168 00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:13,240 Speaker 3: some more JD. Vans for examples on the Sunday shows. 169 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:17,360 Speaker 3: With this administration, it is so different, and I truly 170 00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:20,320 Speaker 3: you know, this is not like oh Talk radio our side, 171 00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:24,360 Speaker 3: their side. It is so different from the dementia puppet 172 00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:27,160 Speaker 3: in chief and what we had before. When these guys 173 00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:30,840 Speaker 3: say something, When Trump and Vance and Hegseth say something 174 00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:35,120 Speaker 3: about if you if you kill American somewhere, We're going 175 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:38,880 Speaker 3: to drop the fires of hell on your head, they 176 00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:42,160 Speaker 3: mean it, yes, and the bad guys know they mean it, 177 00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:45,720 Speaker 3: and they know it will happen, and that has meaning. 178 00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:51,440 Speaker 3: That has meaning for moments like this, whereas with Biden. 179 00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:54,439 Speaker 3: You know, I mean we know invasion of Ukraine happens. 180 00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:56,080 Speaker 3: I mean, they'll get the stuff like no no one 181 00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:58,720 Speaker 3: takes the guy seriously. So let well, Clay, I'll get 182 00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:00,480 Speaker 3: into some of this because I think JD. Advance made 183 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:04,120 Speaker 3: it very clear that there are ways that the Iranians 184 00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:08,000 Speaker 3: can respond that will be you know, within the UH, 185 00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:11,200 Speaker 3: within the laws of war, the boundaries of armed conflict, 186 00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:13,200 Speaker 3: I should say, And there are ways that they can 187 00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:14,880 Speaker 3: go outside of that. If they go outside of that, 188 00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:18,720 Speaker 3: I think this administration is going to punish them severely. 189 00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:20,079 Speaker 3: And that's the way that it should be. 190 00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:24,440 Speaker 2: And now you you also understand better than anybody else. 191 00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:29,719 Speaker 2: You have to know what somebody means in negotiation. You 192 00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:32,040 Speaker 2: can't like Biden was so weak. 193 00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 1: They felt like they could play him, and they knew 194 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:38,679 Speaker 1: that there was no spine behind anything he said. And 195 00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:42,800 Speaker 1: these these dictators, these malas, and respond to violence. 196 00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:43,760 Speaker 4: This is the thing. 197 00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:45,400 Speaker 3: It's not It's not like that was their perception and 198 00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:48,280 Speaker 3: Biden was actually a sleeping giant or something, And no, 199 00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:50,760 Speaker 3: it was they were right by thinking he was an 200 00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:52,560 Speaker 3: imbecile and a not of sound mind. 201 00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:57,839 Speaker 1: And again I think that sometimes you don't like it, 202 00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:00,400 Speaker 1: and I think this is where democrats, frankly, lack of 203 00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:05,760 Speaker 1: masculinity becomes an issue. Most people who are in positions 204 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:11,160 Speaker 1: of power around the world are dudes who are mal actors. Right, 205 00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:14,560 Speaker 1: are men, and they respond to violence. That's what they 206 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:17,480 Speaker 1: respond to. It would be great if they would respond 207 00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:21,480 Speaker 1: to argument, but ultimately, all they care about is do 208 00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:25,400 Speaker 1: you have the ability to do them harm. It's like 209 00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:29,240 Speaker 1: bullies everywhere, right, Like on some level, you don't usually 210 00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:31,920 Speaker 1: talk a bully out of being a bully. You have 211 00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:34,440 Speaker 1: to make the bully fear that you can kick his ass. 212 00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:37,199 Speaker 1: And that is what Trump is willing to do because 213 00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:39,599 Speaker 1: I think he understands that. I think a lot of 214 00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:44,959 Speaker 1: the soft, weak masculinity, frankly of the Democrat Party might 215 00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:48,600 Speaker 1: work when it comes to persuading Lesbians of the truth 216 00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:51,920 Speaker 1: of their arguments in the United States, it doesn't work 217 00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:56,319 Speaker 1: when it comes to fundamentalist terrorists who are effectively in 218 00:12:56,440 --> 00:12:58,599 Speaker 1: control of the country like Iran. I mean, that's the 219 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:01,920 Speaker 1: hard truth and that's the reality, and they respect force 220 00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:05,160 Speaker 1: and violence, and you have to sometimes show them that 221 00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:07,959 Speaker 1: you're willing to deploy it. Biden wasn't. I think that's 222 00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:10,480 Speaker 1: why Ukraine got invaded. I think the weakness that he 223 00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:13,360 Speaker 1: showed in Afghanistan showed the world that he didn't have 224 00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:16,120 Speaker 1: a steel spine, and they took advantage of it. I 225 00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:18,600 Speaker 1: don't think Hamas would have invaded if Trump were in office. 226 00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:21,120 Speaker 1: I don't think that Ukraine would have gotten invaded if 227 00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:23,720 Speaker 1: Trump were in office. And I think what's happening right 228 00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:27,120 Speaker 1: now is Iran is learning that Trump isn't to be 229 00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:30,400 Speaker 1: trifled with. Look, we don't shy away from the tough 230 00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:31,120 Speaker 1: topics of the day. 231 00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:31,720 Speaker 2: On the program. 232 00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:34,000 Speaker 1: We tell you exactly what we think, and these are 233 00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:37,560 Speaker 1: some of the things that most Americans agree on. How 234 00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:40,280 Speaker 1: about this, boys shouldn't compete in girls sports? 235 00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:41,559 Speaker 2: Another one? 236 00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:46,000 Speaker 1: Healthcare coverage is just playing broken. Too expensive, too confusing, 237 00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:49,719 Speaker 1: way too unfair to people who work for themselves and 238 00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:53,240 Speaker 1: can't join a jew group plan.

And the missiles 258 00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:07,680 Speaker 3: been shot out of the sky, so we're not seeing 259 00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:10,280 Speaker 3: any any major damage from that.

So let's get 262 00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:19,800 Speaker 3: to Jim in Missouri wants to weigh in. What's going on. 263 00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:27,000 Speaker 6: Jim point, there's no way Biden could pool this off 264 00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:29,800 Speaker 6: for two reasons. Number one, had happened on the weekend, 265 00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:33,080 Speaker 6: and we know where he was on the weekend on vacation. 266 00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:35,880 Speaker 6: We watched for four years. The second thing is it 267 00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:39,480 Speaker 6: happened after his curfew or lid time, which is four 268 00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:40,240 Speaker 6: pm Eastern. 269 00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:41,160 Speaker 4: Yeah. 270 00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:43,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it's funny, Buck. 271 00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:46,200 Speaker 1: I mean I when I was up late late on 272 00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:49,120 Speaker 1: Saturday night watching the news and following this story like 273 00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:52,080 Speaker 1: everybody else, all I could think over and over again, 274 00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:55,480 Speaker 1: was thank god we do not have Kamala Harrison office 275 00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:58,560 Speaker 1: because to your point, do you think these bad guys 276 00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:02,120 Speaker 1: respect Kamla Harrison any way? Are they afraid of what 277 00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:06,280 Speaker 1: she might order against them? I mean, whatever you want 278 00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:10,800 Speaker 1: to think about Trump, they respect Trump, and I think 279 00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:13,280 Speaker 1: you're seeing it right now. With Iran, I don't know 280 00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:16,240 Speaker 1: if he if they pulled their punches buck, or if 281 00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:18,640 Speaker 1: they frankly just don't have the ability to throw a 282 00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:21,680 Speaker 1: very hard punch because to your point, they're basically a 283 00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:22,680 Speaker 1: third world country. 284 00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:24,720 Speaker 3: Now, look what they've done with Look what they've done 285 00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:27,600 Speaker 3: with Israel. I mean, if if they could, like I said, 286 00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:29,880 Speaker 3: if they could have leveled the Israeli city with ballistic 287 00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:32,040 Speaker 3: missiles in response to those strikes, they would have done it. 288 00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:35,680 Speaker 3: They can't do it, thank god. But that's where things are. 289 00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:38,200 Speaker 3: David and Alabama. What's going on? David? 290 00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:43,160 Speaker 2: Hey, guys, Kamala Harris couldn't order take out and make 291 00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:47,240 Speaker 2: anybody worry. But the comment I want to make, did 292 00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:49,440 Speaker 2: y'all catch Marco Rubio's jal. 293 00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:53,440 Speaker 3: Or that mental midget on over the weekend? About up 294 00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:56,560 Speaker 3: and tell you know what, David, We'll play after our 295 00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:58,920 Speaker 3: next break here, we'll play those for everybody and and 296 00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:01,480 Speaker 3: walk through those because Clay I think they were fantastic. 297 00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:06,560 Speaker 3: Marco Rubio is he is en fuego? Yes. 298 00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:08,760 Speaker 1: And by the way, more and more reports coming out 299 00:17:08,840 --> 00:17:12,280 Speaker 1: that basically Iran let us know exactly what they were 300 00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:14,800 Speaker 1: going to be doing, what the timing of their attacks 301 00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:18,719 Speaker 1: were going to be, and we said, this is very 302 00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:22,080 Speaker 1: similar to what happened in twenty twenty after Solo Moni. 303 00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:24,560 Speaker 1: This is from the New York Times, which has a 304 00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:29,639 Speaker 1: lot of assets in Iran. Iran coordinated the attacks on 305 00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:32,640 Speaker 1: the American air base and Katar with Katari officials gave 306 00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:36,760 Speaker 1: advanced notice it was coming to minimize casualties, according to 307 00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:41,320 Speaker 1: three Iranian officials familiar with the plans. Officials said Iran 308 00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:44,800 Speaker 1: symbolically needed to strike back at the US, but at 309 00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:46,600 Speaker 1: the same time carry it out in a way that 310 00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:50,359 Speaker 1: allowed all sides in exit ramp. They decided described it 311 00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:52,760 Speaker 1: as similar to twenty twenty, So that's kind of what 312 00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:56,320 Speaker 1: we thought. We went to keep you updated, but it's. 313 00:17:56,680 --> 00:18:01,000 Speaker 3: Rational action from the Tehran regime. So we'll talk more 314 00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:03,720 Speaker 3: about this.

It appears that they telegraphed their actions. 337 00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:12,440 Speaker 1: They are seeking to dial back after we kicked their 338 00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:16,640 Speaker 1: ass on Saturday night. Either they don't have the ability 339 00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:19,720 Speaker 1: to actually do anything to us, which is probably true, 340 00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:23,920 Speaker 1: and or they are afraid of what we might do 341 00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:30,720 Speaker 1: in response to them. And Buck I loved on Saturday 342 00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:34,359 Speaker 1: night when Trump came out about ten pm Eastern, Marco Rubio, 343 00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:38,240 Speaker 1: Pete Hegseth, and JD. Vance all arrayed behind him, spoke 344 00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:40,760 Speaker 1: for about three and a half minutes, and then his 345 00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:46,960 Speaker 1: top spokespeople, Rubio, Vance and heg Seth all spoke Sunday publicly, 346 00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:51,240 Speaker 1: and I thought did phenomenally well. But this, sorry, this 347 00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:55,720 Speaker 1: Marco Rubio versus Margaret Brennan on I think it's faced 348 00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:58,280 Speaker 1: the Nation or CBS News or wherever the heck she works. 349 00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:03,600 Speaker 1: Every time that it occurs, it just is an absolutely 350 00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:07,800 Speaker 1: epic beat down. And let's just play a couple of 351 00:20:08,560 --> 00:20:11,199 Speaker 1: a couple of these cuts. This is Rubio against Margaret 352 00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:16,359 Speaker 1: Brennan about cut twelve here, just to give you a 353 00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:21,000 Speaker 1: sense of the intellectual evisceration that took place on CBS 354 00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:21,720 Speaker 1: Sunday morning. 355 00:20:21,800 --> 00:20:23,399 Speaker 7: This is what it sounded like it doesn't matter if 356 00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:25,159 Speaker 7: the order was given. They have everything they need to 357 00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:27,760 Speaker 7: build nuclear weapons. Why would you bury Why would you 358 00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:30,240 Speaker 7: bury things in a mountain three hundred feet under the ground. 359 00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:32,399 Speaker 7: Why would you bury six Why do they have sixty 360 00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:35,320 Speaker 7: percent enrich uranium? You don't need sixty percent in rich area. 361 00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:37,399 Speaker 7: The only countries in the world that have uranium at 362 00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:40,800 Speaker 7: sixty percent are countries that have nuclear weapons, because it 363 00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:43,320 Speaker 7: can quickly make it ninety. They have all the elements 364 00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:45,240 Speaker 7: they have. Why they why do they have a space program? 365 00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:47,120 Speaker 7: Is Aron going to go to the moon? No, they're 366 00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:48,280 Speaker 7: trying to build an ICBM. 367 00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:48,399 Speaker 4: No. 368 00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:49,920 Speaker 3: But that's that's a question. 369 00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:52,040 Speaker 8: That's a question of intent. And you know in the 370 00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:55,240 Speaker 8: intelligence assessment that it was that Iran wanted to be 371 00:20:55,280 --> 00:20:58,720 Speaker 8: a threshold. See you use those I'm talking on the 372 00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:01,760 Speaker 8: intelligence March assessment, and that's why I was asking you 373 00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:02,080 Speaker 8: if you. 374 00:21:02,119 --> 00:21:06,000 Speaker 7: Know something more from its inaccurate representation of it. That's 375 00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:09,000 Speaker 7: an accurate representation of it. That's not how intelligence has read. 376 00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:11,680 Speaker 7: That's not how intelligence is used. Here's what the whole 377 00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:15,720 Speaker 7: world knows. Forget about intelligence, but the IAEA knows they 378 00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:19,399 Speaker 7: are enriching uranium. Well, beyond anything you need for a 379 00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:21,720 Speaker 7: civil nuclear program. 380 00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:24,920 Speaker 2: Okay, that's point one you want to play. 381 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:27,040 Speaker 1: Let's play point two here, because I do think it 382 00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:29,200 Speaker 1: goes into the essence of the attacks that are being 383 00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:32,760 Speaker 1: levied here by left wing media, which it should be 384 00:21:32,920 --> 00:21:36,479 Speaker 1: mentioned many people out there said, oh, my goodness, if 385 00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:39,240 Speaker 1: we do this, thousands of American troops are going to die. 386 00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:45,040 Speaker 1: It's early, but we have viscerated it appears the Iranian 387 00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:51,560 Speaker 1: nuclear oper opportunity going forward, and Iran basically rolled over 388 00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:55,879 Speaker 1: and played dead. To your point, Buck, they are effectively, 389 00:21:55,920 --> 00:22:00,240 Speaker 1: after forty six years of Ayatola rule, a third third 390 00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:04,320 Speaker 1: world country that's being frankly passed rapidly in their own 391 00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:09,200 Speaker 1: region by the Saudi Arabia, the UAE Qatar. Countries that 392 00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:12,760 Speaker 1: they used to look down on for generations are now 393 00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:17,040 Speaker 1: having way stronger economies, way better frankly military, and way 394 00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:18,240 Speaker 1: more success as a country. 395 00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:25,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, Iran is an ancient and proud civilization that for 396 00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:28,720 Speaker 3: the last fifty years has been brought low by moron 397 00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:32,480 Speaker 3: theocrats who make everything worse for everybody in the country. 398 00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:35,159 Speaker 3: That's what's happened, you know. It's a bit like you 399 00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:38,679 Speaker 3: talked to Cuban Americans down here in South Florida about Cuba, 400 00:22:39,119 --> 00:22:42,960 Speaker 3: a beautiful island with great people who have been emiserated 401 00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:48,439 Speaker 3: and enslaved by communist imbeciles since the Castro regime took power. Right, 402 00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:50,879 Speaker 3: I mean, this is unfortunately what it can happen in 403 00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:53,480 Speaker 3: some of these places. But here we've got Marco Rubio 404 00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:55,399 Speaker 3: cut two. You want to play this one, right, he 405 00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:58,280 Speaker 3: continues on dealing with Margaret Brennan. Play it. 406 00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:01,800 Speaker 7: Why would you enrich Urania at sixty percent if you 407 00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:03,359 Speaker 7: don't intend to one day use it to take it 408 00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:04,119 Speaker 7: to ninety. 409 00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:04,600 Speaker 3: And build a weapon? 410 00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:08,000 Speaker 7: Why are you developing ICBMs? Why do you have eight 411 00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:11,000 Speaker 7: thousand short range missiles and two to three thousand long 412 00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:14,359 Speaker 7: mid arrange missiles that you continue to develop. Why do 413 00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:16,639 Speaker 7: you do all these things and just everything they need 414 00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:19,199 Speaker 7: for a nuclear weapon. They have the delivery mechanisms, they 415 00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:22,360 Speaker 7: have the enrichment capability, they have the highly enriched uranium. 416 00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:23,920 Speaker 3: That is stored. That's all we need to see. 417 00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:24,159 Speaker 4: Right. 418 00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:26,960 Speaker 7: Well, the hands of the regime that's already involved in 419 00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:29,720 Speaker 7: terrorism and proxies and all kinds of things are on 420 00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:30,639 Speaker 7: They are the source of all this. 421 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:33,200 Speaker 8: Yes, and no, one's disputing No, one's disputing that. I'm 422 00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:35,560 Speaker 8: not doing that here, and they were censured at the 423 00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:40,120 Speaker 8: IAEA for that enrichment and for violating their non proliferation agreements. 424 00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:43,080 Speaker 8: I was simply asking if we had intelligence that there 425 00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:47,119 Speaker 8: was an order to weaponize, because you said weaponization ambitions, we. 426 00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:49,240 Speaker 7: Have intelligence that they have everything they need to build 427 00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:50,960 Speaker 7: a nuclear weapon, and that's more than enough. 428 00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:53,920 Speaker 2: I mean, here's a question for you, Buck. 429 00:23:54,960 --> 00:24:00,520 Speaker 1: If Iran has no interest in having nuclear weapons, why 430 00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:04,520 Speaker 1: do they need to enrich uranium and be pursuing nuclear 431 00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:07,720 Speaker 1: energy in any way? They sit on one of the 432 00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:10,840 Speaker 1: biggest oil fields in the world. They have more energy 433 00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:13,960 Speaker 1: access than almost any country, well anywhere. 434 00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:17,040 Speaker 3: Okay, so you're asking, you're asking the basic and obvious 435 00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:21,200 Speaker 3: questions that people that oppose this have to just refuse 436 00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:22,639 Speaker 3: that you can't address, can't deal with that. 437 00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:25,560 Speaker 1: Why, that's my question, Like, what would be the reason 438 00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:29,919 Speaker 1: they would be burying uranium enrichment minds basically, for lack 439 00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:33,120 Speaker 1: of a better way of characterizing it, beneath mountains while 440 00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:36,760 Speaker 1: being on top of oil fields. If they weren't trying 441 00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:38,200 Speaker 1: to create nuclear weapon. 442 00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:40,119 Speaker 3: It's even worse than that, Like if they were willing 443 00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:44,600 Speaker 3: to play ball with the international community. Remember the their 444 00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:47,840 Speaker 3: signatory is to the Non Nuclear Perliferation Treaty, which they 445 00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:50,879 Speaker 3: just violate this but put that aside. You know, treaties, right, 446 00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:53,600 Speaker 3: You know, this is like Pompey Magnus of ancient Rome. 447 00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:56,680 Speaker 3: Don't quote laws to men with swords like okay, fine, 448 00:24:56,720 --> 00:25:00,480 Speaker 3: We're in a power dynamics based world, not a treaty 449 00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:05,040 Speaker 3: and obligations based world. Okay. If they were willing to 450 00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:08,199 Speaker 3: work with the international community such as it is, if 451 00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:10,720 Speaker 3: they were willing to play ball with America, Europe, et cetera, 452 00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:13,720 Speaker 3: and stop doing the things that they're doing that are 453 00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:18,760 Speaker 3: destabilizing and that make the region so miserable quite honestly, 454 00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:22,760 Speaker 3: and so much violence. I mean, the French would build 455 00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:25,919 Speaker 3: their reactors for them, and people would help them if 456 00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:28,520 Speaker 3: the regime was willing to have real inspections, play ball 457 00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:32,040 Speaker 3: and do what has been asked here for a long time, 458 00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:37,080 Speaker 3: civilian nuclear power, that there are ways that that could 459 00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:39,320 Speaker 3: be achieved and done. Of course, you asked the question, 460 00:25:39,359 --> 00:25:41,199 Speaker 3: which is maybe even more important, well, why would they 461 00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:43,440 Speaker 3: even want that considering how much oil they have, which 462 00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:46,480 Speaker 3: is just easier for them and the answer is that 463 00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:49,080 Speaker 3: they want to have a nuclear weapons capability. Do you 464 00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:52,000 Speaker 3: see this If you are a regime of bad actors 465 00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:56,320 Speaker 3: for the last fifty years or so, if you have nukes, 466 00:25:56,560 --> 00:26:00,840 Speaker 3: you don't have to worry really about external overthrow. That's 467 00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:02,480 Speaker 3: the lesson that a lot of people take from this, 468 00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:05,280 Speaker 3: and which is why North Korea gets to North Korea 469 00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:08,399 Speaker 3: do it right. North Korea is a perfect example. You 470 00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:13,840 Speaker 3: can be a religious zelot run theocracy that has held 471 00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:15,840 Speaker 3: been but well, it's basically what North Korea is. They 472 00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:18,840 Speaker 3: just worshiped the Kim dynasty instead of you know, Islam, 473 00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:21,399 Speaker 3: but it actually it really is kind of a theocracy, 474 00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:25,479 Speaker 3: and in a sense it's a netcrocracy because the founder, 475 00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:27,960 Speaker 3: Kim Il sung, is still kind of worshiped as the 476 00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:29,000 Speaker 3: head of the Communist Party. 477 00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:35,560 Speaker 1: But to your point, again from a international affairs response, 478 00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:38,720 Speaker 1: I have actually seen some of the members of the 479 00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:43,760 Speaker 1: Clinton administration saying publicly, now we blew it with North Korea. 480 00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:48,679 Speaker 1: In retrospect, we should have have had attacks on their 481 00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:53,160 Speaker 1: nuclear capabilities. Bill Clinton considered it in nineteen ninety four. 482 00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:55,520 Speaker 1: I even saw Rama Manuel Will come out and say it, 483 00:26:56,119 --> 00:26:58,480 Speaker 1: and I think most people out there would say Hey, 484 00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:01,760 Speaker 1: would be better if this crazy Korean dictatorship didn't have 485 00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:05,200 Speaker 1: nuclear weapons. But because they have them, they basically have 486 00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:09,359 Speaker 1: power and perpetuity because the risk of attacking them is 487 00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:12,520 Speaker 1: nuclear war. And that is the lesson that I think 488 00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:17,800 Speaker 1: Iran has taken now by attacking this regime, we are 489 00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:21,479 Speaker 1: trying to prevent another North Korea, but we're also sending 490 00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:25,640 Speaker 1: the message to other countries that may make the rational choice, hey, 491 00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:28,920 Speaker 1: we need to have nuclear weapons, to their consequences for 492 00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:31,880 Speaker 1: pursuing these and also buck This is why I think 493 00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:35,679 Speaker 1: the response from China and from Russia has been muted, 494 00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:38,600 Speaker 1: because deep down they don't want Iran to have nuclear 495 00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:39,280 Speaker 1: weapons either. 496 00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:44,960 Speaker 3: Yes, of course, they can't trust Iran. These countries do 497 00:27:45,040 --> 00:27:47,200 Speaker 3: not align countries or whatever you want to call them, 498 00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:52,080 Speaker 3: that will work together. These are places you know, Putin's 499 00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:56,280 Speaker 3: right hand man. Can't trust Vladimir Putin. You think the Iranians, 500 00:27:56,760 --> 00:27:59,119 Speaker 3: I mean, these people will only. These are countries that 501 00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:02,760 Speaker 3: only will work together insofar as it is cast zero 502 00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:07,119 Speaker 3: cost to them and in their immediate interests, no interest, 503 00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:09,639 Speaker 3: as long as the oil flows. These countries don't give 504 00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:12,200 Speaker 3: a They don't care who's in charge in Iran. You know, 505 00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:14,200 Speaker 3: the Chinese get a lot of oil from Iran because 506 00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:16,840 Speaker 3: of the sanctions, and and you know they want that 507 00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:20,639 Speaker 3: oil to keep flowing. And you know that the Russians. 508 00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:22,560 Speaker 3: I know this seems strange people, but the Russians actually 509 00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:25,600 Speaker 3: buy a lot of Iranian oil too, even though the 510 00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:27,240 Speaker 3: Russians have a lot of oil on their own right, 511 00:28:27,280 --> 00:28:30,240 Speaker 3: because it has to do with refining and the global markets. 512 00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:34,600 Speaker 3: But clay there, there's no The World War III thing 513 00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:36,679 Speaker 3: never made any sense because there's no countries that are 514 00:28:36,720 --> 00:28:39,360 Speaker 3: going to come to the aid of Iran that want 515 00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:43,760 Speaker 3: to lose their own soldiers in some conflict, uh, you know, 516 00:28:43,920 --> 00:28:46,440 Speaker 3: with Israel and or with the United States. So that's 517 00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:49,520 Speaker 3: not going to happen. The thing for me, that's the 518 00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:53,520 Speaker 3: biggest open question right now is what do we want 519 00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:55,440 Speaker 3: if we're going to take this forward beyond where we are. 520 00:28:55,800 --> 00:28:58,480 Speaker 3: It is possible, folks, we wake up tomorrow and Iran 521 00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:01,200 Speaker 3: has managed to do so on thing horrible and kill 522 00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:03,880 Speaker 3: a lot of people somewhere, and that will change the 523 00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:07,880 Speaker 3: that will change the dynamics in this conflict overnight. I mean, 524 00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:10,240 Speaker 3: that is possible. So far, we haven't seen that in 525 00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:12,400 Speaker 3: what we've seen from Iran has been pretty contained and 526 00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:17,920 Speaker 3: pretty predictable, right, so what do we want? Meaning what 527 00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:20,760 Speaker 3: do we truly the American people want? Now? The first 528 00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:23,080 Speaker 3: thing is we want this to not be our problem 529 00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:24,560 Speaker 3: and for us not to be involved. I get that. 530 00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:27,640 Speaker 3: That's like first principle, that's numeral uno here is Okay, 531 00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:30,040 Speaker 3: we don't want to make this our problem. But in 532 00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:35,080 Speaker 3: terms of if we can foresee a future where we 533 00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:36,520 Speaker 3: don't have to, wouldn't it be nice? I mean, how 534 00:29:36,560 --> 00:29:38,920 Speaker 3: often do we sit around talking about, you know, the 535 00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:41,000 Speaker 3: future of Kazakhstan, which, by the way, has a lot 536 00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:43,520 Speaker 3: of natural resources. People think of Borot. It's actually a 537 00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:46,120 Speaker 3: very large country, a lot of natural resources. I think 538 00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:49,400 Speaker 3: a tremendous amount of Not the potassium is what Borat 539 00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:51,080 Speaker 3: always says. I think it has a lot of natural gas. 540 00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:53,920 Speaker 3: Someone check me on that. But my point is we 541 00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:56,960 Speaker 3: don't care about that. You know, Kazakhstan does its thing. Yeah, 542 00:29:57,000 --> 00:29:59,000 Speaker 3: they don't have free speech, and but whatever, it's not 543 00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:00,680 Speaker 3: our problem. We don't have to worry about this. We 544 00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:03,200 Speaker 3: really want Iran to be in that category. It's just 545 00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:07,200 Speaker 3: not our problem. And so if not our problem is 546 00:30:07,280 --> 00:30:09,640 Speaker 3: what we want from Iran, what does that look like, 547 00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:13,240 Speaker 3: how do we get there? And is that the Iranian 548 00:30:13,320 --> 00:30:16,440 Speaker 3: regime just kind of sputtering along as it is defanged, 549 00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:19,680 Speaker 3: as I've said, or do we really want to see 550 00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:23,400 Speaker 3: what happens if people start dragging the you know, the 551 00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:27,680 Speaker 3: IRGC and the besiege which is their really their brown 552 00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:30,520 Speaker 3: shirts and I mean they're street militia if you will, 553 00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:32,920 Speaker 3: of the regime. If we start if they start getting 554 00:30:32,960 --> 00:30:35,280 Speaker 3: dragged out in the streets and beaten by you know, 555 00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:38,880 Speaker 3: the civilians with pitchforks and torches, so to speak, is 556 00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:42,160 Speaker 3: that what we want? You know, I don't know. You know, 557 00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:44,320 Speaker 3: this is where we get into the I don't know again, 558 00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:46,960 Speaker 3: not us doing it. I'm just saying, what do we 559 00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:48,320 Speaker 3: really want in Iran? 560 00:30:48,760 --> 00:30:50,760 Speaker 1: I think that's the question at this point going forward, 561 00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:52,040 Speaker 1: and we could spend some time on it in this 562 00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:57,160 Speaker 1: third hour because to me, the question that and by 563 00:30:57,200 --> 00:30:58,680 Speaker 1: the way, Elon Musk. 564 00:30:58,800 --> 00:30:59,840 Speaker 2: Turn on startling. 565 00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:03,800 Speaker 1: Let the Iranians actually see what's going on in the 566 00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:06,320 Speaker 1: rest of the world, because buck what they're going to 567 00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:09,920 Speaker 1: say internally is we responded in cut and force and 568 00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:12,840 Speaker 1: wiped out the United States forces in the Middle East. Right, 569 00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:15,800 Speaker 1: this is what Iranian state television is gonna say, but 570 00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:17,840 Speaker 1: bigger picture what a lot of these young people in 571 00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:19,840 Speaker 1: Iran are saying. When I say young, I mean people 572 00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:23,040 Speaker 1: thirty five and younger. Either you're a you know, having kids, 573 00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:23,520 Speaker 1: or you. 574 00:31:23,680 --> 00:31:25,560 Speaker 3: Are That's where we are now in Lifeclay, We're like, 575 00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:27,960 Speaker 3: we're all these whipper snappers in their thirties. 576 00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:32,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, all these young guys. But they are looking around now. 577 00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:35,760 Speaker 1: At some point, embarrassment and anger starts to set in 578 00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:38,880 Speaker 1: in Iran because you see people in Saudi Arabia having 579 00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:41,880 Speaker 1: a better life than you. Bahrain Qatars having the freakin 580 00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:44,640 Speaker 1: World Cup. Saudi Arabia is gonna have the World Cup. 581 00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:47,880 Speaker 1: They love soccer. Why is Iran getting left behind? It's 582 00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:50,920 Speaker 1: one thing if the US and Israel are better off, okay, 583 00:31:51,240 --> 00:31:54,360 Speaker 1: but when your fellow Arab and Muslim countries are leaving 584 00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:57,280 Speaker 1: you behind and you to your point Buck used to 585 00:31:57,360 --> 00:32:00,520 Speaker 1: be a proud member of the Persian Empire. Go study 586 00:32:00,680 --> 00:32:04,240 Speaker 1: world history. They ancient history. They were ahead of the curve, 587 00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:07,600 Speaker 1: they were long ahead of much of even Europe back 588 00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:10,600 Speaker 1: in the day, and now they're falling behind. Quality of life. 589 00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:12,560 Speaker 1: They can't even keep the power on so they can 590 00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:15,520 Speaker 1: take elevators in buildings. These are real questions that I 591 00:32:15,560 --> 00:32:17,760 Speaker 1: think are going to start getting asked by the Iranian people. 592 00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:19,280 Speaker 2: And where does it lead? That's the question. 593 00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:22,240 Speaker 3: Let's what comes next? What should come next?

My fear is we 641 00:34:56,200 --> 00:34:59,680 Speaker 4: have to bomb them until they literally beg us to quit. 642 00:34:59,760 --> 00:35:02,680 Speaker 3: Bomb hmm. 643 00:35:03,719 --> 00:35:05,759 Speaker 4: Not how many bombs that's gonna take. 644 00:35:06,520 --> 00:35:09,200 Speaker 3: But I think we're only bombing precise facilities right now. 645 00:35:09,239 --> 00:35:11,319 Speaker 3: I mean, this isn't like Dresden in World War Two. 646 00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:13,440 Speaker 3: I don't know if that's really gonna We. 647 00:35:13,520 --> 00:35:16,359 Speaker 2: Haven't roach Nagasaki, did anybody here buck? 648 00:35:17,280 --> 00:35:17,480 Speaker 6: Yeah? 649 00:35:17,560 --> 00:35:19,080 Speaker 2: Look, we should mention. 650 00:35:19,680 --> 00:35:22,640 Speaker 1: Iran has also said they fired back the same number 651 00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:25,560 Speaker 1: of missiles at us that we fired at them on Saturday. 652 00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:30,440 Speaker 1: This is their attempt to keep us from continuing to 653 00:35:30,560 --> 00:35:31,520 Speaker 1: rain down on them. 654 00:35:32,040 --> 00:35:33,759 Speaker 3: I know I've been saying that you can pick your 655 00:35:33,880 --> 00:35:36,279 Speaker 3: historical analogy to support whatever point of view you want. 656 00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:39,360 Speaker 3: I will say this, It is possible for a country 657 00:35:39,440 --> 00:35:44,480 Speaker 3: that has gone down a path of extreme darkness, malevolency, 658 00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:50,400 Speaker 3: and militancy to turn around. I mean, you mentioned Hiroshima, 659 00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:53,120 Speaker 3: Nagasaki is a pretty extreme situation. But you know, Japan, 660 00:35:54,080 --> 00:35:56,760 Speaker 3: Japan's a good friend of the United States. Now, the Japanese, 661 00:35:56,840 --> 00:35:58,840 Speaker 3: what they did in World War Two was on the 662 00:35:58,880 --> 00:36:03,040 Speaker 3: same scale and level of horribleness as what the Germans did. 663 00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:05,840 Speaker 3: They just did it in a different place. So and 664 00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:08,760 Speaker 3: anyone who knows the history knows that. So it's possible 665 00:36:08,840 --> 00:36:11,279 Speaker 3: for countries to turn around. Now, it's way early in 666 00:36:11,320 --> 00:36:13,200 Speaker 3: the game to be saying, well, Iran is you know, 667 00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:16,239 Speaker 3: Iran is also going to be like a representative democracy 668 00:36:16,719 --> 00:36:20,120 Speaker 3: with a lot of people who love you know, pop 669 00:36:20,239 --> 00:36:21,880 Speaker 3: music and Hello Kitty or whatever. I mean, you know, 670 00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:24,239 Speaker 3: it's not going to turn it into Japan tomorrow.
