1
00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:14,280
Speaker 1: Hey, the folks, it is Monday, March ninth, and Oran

2
00:00:14,720 --> 00:00:18,759
Speaker 1: has a new supreme leader with that welcome to this

3
00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:23,040
Speaker 1: episode of Amy and TJ. They didn't get the message

4
00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:24,160
Speaker 1: about regime change.

5
00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:29,640
Speaker 2: Apparently, Yes, and a new leader with the same name and.

6
00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:33,560
Speaker 3: A mid warnings he will suffer the same fate.

7
00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:37,240
Speaker 1: Robes a week ago with the war started and we

8
00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:41,880
Speaker 1: were at war against Iran and it's supreme leader Ayatola Hamine.

9
00:00:42,720 --> 00:00:44,440
Speaker 1: A week and a half later, we're at war with

10
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:51,640
Speaker 1: Iran and Supreme Leader Hamine. What's happening now? Younger so

11
00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:55,120
Speaker 1: thirty years the junior of his dad. Yes, folks, After

12
00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:59,440
Speaker 1: all that, it seems bizarre, quite frankly, that here we are,

13
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:03,560
Speaker 1: we can into this war where yes, regime change was

14
00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:08,520
Speaker 1: said as a goal initially, that the regime robes, according

15
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:13,480
Speaker 1: to this selection is intact, and it almost sends a

16
00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:17,520
Speaker 1: message to the US and Israel. Yeah, we're going about

17
00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:18,759
Speaker 1: our business as usual.

18
00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:22,080
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, this is defiance with a capital D. They

19
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:28,039
Speaker 2: obviously have heard the warnings. They are obviously dealing with

20
00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:34,319
Speaker 2: a steady barrage of incoming missiles and attacks, and yet

21
00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:38,440
Speaker 2: they are still saying we're gonna do things our way, My.

22
00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:41,840
Speaker 1: Goodness, this is this is wild. So folks, well, yes,

23
00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:43,560
Speaker 1: we'll take you back. We're going to give you the

24
00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:45,960
Speaker 1: president's words and what he has said about regime change.

25
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:50,000
Speaker 1: But we are getting word, yes, today, that this assembly

26
00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:55,320
Speaker 1: of experts, this group of clerics, has selected now as

27
00:01:55,360 --> 00:02:01,280
Speaker 1: the next Supreme leader of iran Ayatola most Hamane, who

28
00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:06,320
Speaker 1: is Robes, as you said, the son of the previous Iatola,

29
00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:09,880
Speaker 1: the previous supreme leader. And Robes again, what does the

30
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:13,160
Speaker 1: United States? What does Israel do? Now? They have clearly

31
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:16,000
Speaker 1: sent a signal that you can bomb the hell out

32
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:18,160
Speaker 1: of this place. The regime main changes.

33
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:19,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, we're gonna stay the same.

34
00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:22,800
Speaker 2: We're going to have our way of life, whether you

35
00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:25,320
Speaker 2: like it or not, and we will rebuild again and

36
00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:29,040
Speaker 2: will continue to do business as usual the way we've.

37
00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:31,520
Speaker 3: Been doing it. And this is a man that a

38
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:33,079
Speaker 3: lot isn't known about him.

39
00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:36,080
Speaker 2: He's been described as being in the shadows of his

40
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:40,880
Speaker 2: father's leadership, but certainly he by all accounts, has been

41
00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:44,119
Speaker 2: the guy who has been in charge of coordinating the military,

42
00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:49,240
Speaker 2: coordinating the intelligence operations. So he is deeply entrenched with

43
00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:52,800
Speaker 2: the Islamic Revolutionary Guard. He knows this country, how it

44
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:55,800
Speaker 2: works inside and out. He has been by his father's

45
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:56,840
Speaker 2: side throughout it all.

46
00:02:56,919 --> 00:03:00,079
Speaker 1: He's been groomed. He has watched this job happy. And

47
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:03,560
Speaker 1: very important thing that you mentioned, Robes, this guy, as

48
00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:05,840
Speaker 1: a supreme leader is in charge of everything. It's not

49
00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:08,320
Speaker 1: really a concept we understand here. We got a separation

50
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:11,400
Speaker 1: of powers and church and state and all kinds of up. No, no, no,

51
00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:15,000
Speaker 1: he is everything there. But a very important note, Robes,

52
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:18,480
Speaker 1: is that he has the backing of the Revolutionary Guards.

53
00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:21,800
Speaker 1: There are very powerful military forces within that country. He

54
00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:25,440
Speaker 1: served in the Revolutionary Guard. They put out statements in

55
00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:28,520
Speaker 1: support of him, pledging allegiance, i should say, is the

56
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:30,919
Speaker 1: way they put it, en Robed. It's a big deal

57
00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:34,920
Speaker 1: that he is a guy that the military is like, hell, yeah,

58
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:35,880
Speaker 1: we'll get behind him.

59
00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:36,160
Speaker 3: Yeah.

60
00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:39,640
Speaker 2: And you think about what President Trump said to the

61
00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:45,320
Speaker 2: Iranians as we began bombing them and sending missiles into

62
00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:48,120
Speaker 2: their country. He said to the people of Iran, this

63
00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:52,240
Speaker 2: is your chance, stand up, take your country back. He

64
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:55,320
Speaker 2: was encouraging all of those protesters that we saw that

65
00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:57,680
Speaker 2: Hamone's father.

66
00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:00,800
Speaker 3: Crushed and killed and imprisoned.

67
00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:04,640
Speaker 2: Now are you going to feel comfortable rising up and

68
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:08,480
Speaker 2: taking your country back when hamone's very own son, who

69
00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:10,560
Speaker 2: has been in charge of the country, who has watched

70
00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:14,080
Speaker 2: all of this happened over the past months, are you

71
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:17,440
Speaker 2: going to feel comfortable rising up the answers.

72
00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:20,200
Speaker 1: No, they've been showing those pictures to your point, and

73
00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:23,840
Speaker 1: it's hard to get good, reliable information out of there.

74
00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:26,320
Speaker 1: They've shut down communications in large part. But we have

75
00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:29,599
Speaker 1: seen in the streets there were some people celebrating the

76
00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:33,840
Speaker 1: death of the former Ayatola, but then you also had

77
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:37,520
Speaker 1: some folks upset and crying and mourning in the streets.

78
00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:41,000
Speaker 1: Some of that deemed propaganda, but some of those real

79
00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:43,560
Speaker 1: sentiments are there and around the world for what the

80
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:45,680
Speaker 1: United States and Israel did and taking out this guy

81
00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:48,680
Speaker 1: so he is now in place. In Robes, there have

82
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:53,479
Speaker 1: been some celebrations that are in support of this guy. Yes,

83
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:56,960
Speaker 1: you still will see people upset about the regime, but Robes,

84
00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:00,840
Speaker 1: it feels like, what's happening now? When do we They

85
00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:03,360
Speaker 1: gave us four objectives the United States for this war.

86
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:06,960
Speaker 1: On that list was not regime change, but they've been

87
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:09,960
Speaker 1: saying it out loud. What do you do though, Rod?

88
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:11,719
Speaker 1: Where was the press conference we watched and I said,

89
00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:13,919
Speaker 1: that was the most important question I've heard throughout this

90
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:17,000
Speaker 1: whole thing. If you reach every one of your objectives

91
00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:20,880
Speaker 1: and the regime hasn't changed, then what correct?

92
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:24,000
Speaker 2: Because if the whole point is to stop Iran from

93
00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:29,799
Speaker 2: trying to continue to amass enough of what they need

94
00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:35,120
Speaker 2: uranium enriched material to create this nuclear bomb, where these

95
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:38,520
Speaker 2: long range missiles that could reach further into Europe, perhaps

96
00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:41,080
Speaker 2: even here to America. According to President Trump, that that

97
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:44,479
Speaker 2: was in the works. How if you have the son

98
00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:48,800
Speaker 2: of the former Supreme Leader now at the helm, even if, yes,

99
00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:52,359
Speaker 2: you achieve all of your objectives, why wouldn't he just

100
00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:56,680
Speaker 2: continue his father's mission, continue what his father started. That

101
00:05:56,760 --> 00:05:59,040
Speaker 2: would be the idea. So what would be the whole

102
00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:00,839
Speaker 2: point of this.

103
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:05,159
Speaker 1: War unless you change the regime. Let's go back to

104
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:10,039
Speaker 1: President Trump. These were his words on night one. He

105
00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:12,119
Speaker 1: made a speech you a member, was a recorded speech.

106
00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:14,080
Speaker 1: He was standing there by himself. He had this is

107
00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:15,279
Speaker 1: the one he had the hat on. I think that

108
00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:19,080
Speaker 1: said USA. But he gave that. He gave at the

109
00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:22,320
Speaker 1: end of his explanation for why We're going to war,

110
00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:26,520
Speaker 1: he had a message directly for the people of Iran.

111
00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:28,320
Speaker 1: In robes there's no mincing words here.

112
00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:31,080
Speaker 2: This is about regime, James correct, He says, finally, to

113
00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:34,560
Speaker 2: the great, proud people of Iran, I say tonight that

114
00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:38,200
Speaker 2: the hour of your freedom is at hand. Stay sheltered,

115
00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:41,440
Speaker 2: don't leave your home. It's very dangerous outside. Bombs will

116
00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:45,640
Speaker 2: be dropping everywhere. When we are finished take your government,

117
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:49,080
Speaker 2: it will be yours to take. This will be probably

118
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:52,240
Speaker 2: your only chance for generations. For many years you have

119
00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:54,560
Speaker 2: asked for America's help, but you never got it. No

120
00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:56,760
Speaker 2: president was willing to do what I am willing to

121
00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:59,400
Speaker 2: do tonight. Now you have a president who is giving

122
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:02,160
Speaker 2: you what you want. So let's see how you respond.

123
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:06,279
Speaker 2: America is backing you with overwhelming strength and devastating force.

124
00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:09,560
Speaker 2: Now is the time to seize control of your destiny

125
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:13,400
Speaker 2: and to unleash the prosperous and glorious future that is

126
00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:16,440
Speaker 2: close within your reach. This is the moment for action.

127
00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:19,080
Speaker 2: Do not let it pass.

128
00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:23,400
Speaker 1: So far, we haven't seen an indication that the folks

129
00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:25,840
Speaker 1: of Iran in mass are taking him up on that offer.

130
00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:26,560
Speaker 1: Not yet.

131
00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:29,560
Speaker 3: No, we haven't said look and look. The bombs are

132
00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:30,240
Speaker 3: still dropping.

133
00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:32,680
Speaker 2: It is still wildly unsafe to be out in the

134
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:36,200
Speaker 2: streets of Iran. The question remains, though, what happens when

135
00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:40,640
Speaker 2: the dust does settle? And now with Halmone at the helm,

136
00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:45,160
Speaker 2: his own son, it doesn't seem like anything would change

137
00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:48,480
Speaker 2: unless that changes. And that is what the promise has

138
00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:52,400
Speaker 2: been from President Trump and from Israel. If a leader

139
00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:55,480
Speaker 2: was chosen who was unacceptable to them, Trumpsai he wanted

140
00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:58,120
Speaker 2: to be a part of the decision.

141
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:03,840
Speaker 1: So the line was, if we aren't involved in picking

142
00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:07,440
Speaker 1: the next leader, he probably won't last long. Is the

143
00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:10,280
Speaker 1: line that he used. That's a direct threat.

144
00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:11,160
Speaker 3: He will not last long.

145
00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:15,800
Speaker 1: How Robes, could we imagine that the new Haminae who

146
00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:18,680
Speaker 1: was now only the third Ayahtola, that they've had the

147
00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:21,520
Speaker 1: third supreme leader in their history since nineteen seventy nine

148
00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:24,680
Speaker 1: of the Islamic Revolution. But Rodes, how is this guy?

149
00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:28,840
Speaker 1: How would you ever anticipate this guy? Now? Sure, I'll

150
00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:31,520
Speaker 1: sit down and talk with the United States. Sure, let's

151
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:34,160
Speaker 1: sit down and work something out after you all just

152
00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:37,079
Speaker 1: bomb my country, kill my dad, kill my mom, kill

153
00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:38,760
Speaker 1: my wife, kill my family.

154
00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:41,280
Speaker 3: Is killed my son? Really? Yeah?

155
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:43,160
Speaker 1: Is he willing to sit down right now?

156
00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:43,600
Speaker 3: Yeah?

157
00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:45,720
Speaker 2: Well I read that too, and I thought, my goodness,

158
00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:49,040
Speaker 2: just get your head around that yes, his country is

159
00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:50,240
Speaker 2: in ruin.

160
00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:52,080
Speaker 3: Right now, in rubble in, a lot of it. But

161
00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:53,840
Speaker 3: to imagine losing.

162
00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:58,120
Speaker 2: Your father, your mother, your wife, and a son, all

163
00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:00,080
Speaker 2: at the hands of the United States and Israel, well,

164
00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:02,080
Speaker 2: that is.

165
00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:04,240
Speaker 3: I can't even get my.

166
00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:08,080
Speaker 2: Head around the anger, the emotion, how you would feel,

167
00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:11,760
Speaker 2: just on a personal level, forget your country, forget the

168
00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:15,080
Speaker 2: pride and all of that. This is so deeply personal

169
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:17,400
Speaker 2: for him right now. There is no way in hell

170
00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:19,280
Speaker 2: he is laying down his arms.

171
00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:23,280
Speaker 3: What would you like me to do? United States? Israel?

172
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:25,880
Speaker 2: How do you think we should run our country? That

173
00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:28,160
Speaker 2: absolutely is beyond far fetched.

174
00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:32,160
Speaker 1: It's far fetched, and Israel has flat out said it

175
00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:35,920
Speaker 1: ain't going to happen. Yes, we've gotten some tough words

176
00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:40,240
Speaker 1: from President Trump, from Secretary Hegsath, but Israel stay here

177
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:53,200
Speaker 1: find out why they ain't messing around. We continue here

178
00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:56,800
Speaker 1: on this Monday, March ninth, on this day, just over

179
00:09:56,880 --> 00:09:59,320
Speaker 1: a week after the Iran War started, just a week

180
00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:01,640
Speaker 1: after Supreme leader there was killed. They have a new

181
00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:07,560
Speaker 1: Supreme leader and well it's a Hamine junior. It is

182
00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:11,760
Speaker 1: the son of the Supreme leader, same name, same family,

183
00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:13,800
Speaker 1: and a lot of people will tell you the same

184
00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:19,200
Speaker 1: mindset and the same same brutal regime is continuing right now.

185
00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:22,439
Speaker 1: Trump said this is a no go, right, yes, afterward

186
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:24,839
Speaker 1: they sit. When the name started floating around, and I

187
00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:26,839
Speaker 1: guess it's been several days he's been seen as the

188
00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:30,880
Speaker 1: front runner, but the President flat out came out and said, no,

189
00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:32,320
Speaker 1: that's no good.

190
00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:34,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's been He was asked specifically if his son

191
00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:36,839
Speaker 2: were to be named the new Supreme leader, how that

192
00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:39,360
Speaker 2: would go down, And yes, he has said he won't

193
00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:41,720
Speaker 2: last long period, end of story.

194
00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:44,760
Speaker 3: And look, there will most certainly be a part of.

195
00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:49,120
Speaker 2: Iran that will be upset about this decision because this

196
00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:51,760
Speaker 2: just means more of the same everything they've been through,

197
00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:55,280
Speaker 2: the protests that were happening, the fact that American Israel

198
00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:58,679
Speaker 2: came in and was telling the people, hey, you're now

199
00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:00,320
Speaker 2: going to get your chance of freedom, You're now going

200
00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:03,120
Speaker 2: to get your chance at figuring out who you want

201
00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:06,760
Speaker 2: to run this country. That all was completely shut down

202
00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:10,720
Speaker 2: when Iran just now voted to bring his son in

203
00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:11,560
Speaker 2: as leader.

204
00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:14,600
Speaker 3: This is the man who I believe they say.

205
00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:17,760
Speaker 2: At least the number was around seven thousand folks were

206
00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:22,880
Speaker 2: just killed recently for rising up for protesting against this regime,

207
00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:25,119
Speaker 2: and now you've got more of the same.

208
00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:28,120
Speaker 3: Right now, in the midst of this war.

209
00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:31,280
Speaker 1: It's something about more of the same in the regime continuing.

210
00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:36,440
Speaker 1: We kind of maybe expected that there was something about, oh,

211
00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:40,240
Speaker 1: the same family, the same name. Even there was something

212
00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:43,520
Speaker 1: about that that made clear that it seems like Iran

213
00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:47,120
Speaker 1: is like, like you said, poking, like it seemed like

214
00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:51,079
Speaker 1: an intentional dig at Israel in the United States. Not

215
00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:54,000
Speaker 1: only is the regime continuing, We're gonna pick the son

216
00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:55,679
Speaker 1: of the guy you just killed.

217
00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:59,600
Speaker 2: My goodness, and the son of the guy that you

218
00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:02,679
Speaker 2: just called you also killed pretty much every member of

219
00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:03,079
Speaker 2: his family.

220
00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:05,600
Speaker 1: Why out his family? Now he is the one in charge.

221
00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:07,840
Speaker 1: We talk about vengeance. We've been talking about vengeance on

222
00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:10,880
Speaker 1: our side, right We're going to avenge the deaths of

223
00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:14,280
Speaker 1: American avenge things that they've done to us in the past.

224
00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:17,680
Speaker 1: But ropes, I mean, how Hamonae he's had this job

225
00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:20,240
Speaker 1: not twenty four hours? The new guy, how long is

226
00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:20,800
Speaker 1: he going to happen?

227
00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:23,320
Speaker 2: See that's and that just means how long is he

228
00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:25,360
Speaker 2: going to live? How long is he going to survive?

229
00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:27,760
Speaker 2: He won't be ousted from power, he will be killed

230
00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:31,160
Speaker 2: and targeted, and you know that I can't even imagine

231
00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:33,600
Speaker 2: being him. I guess at this point, if you've lost

232
00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:37,600
Speaker 2: pretty much most everyone you love, you might have nothing

233
00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:41,199
Speaker 2: to lose. So it's it's it's frightening to think what

234
00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:43,680
Speaker 2: he might be willing to do or what he's capable of,

235
00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:45,959
Speaker 2: because he truly has nothing to lose at this point.

236
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:48,840
Speaker 1: And it is fascinating how they are able to function,

237
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:51,720
Speaker 1: how they are able to stay alive right now and

238
00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:55,040
Speaker 1: for how long. But it's mean Israel, even before I

239
00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:58,920
Speaker 1: think the Sun's name started being floated around, they flat

240
00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:01,360
Speaker 1: out gable warning to anybody who wanted this job. And

241
00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:04,280
Speaker 1: I said, Robes that you look at the job description,

242
00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:08,800
Speaker 1: who wants that gig? When Israel is saying whoever gets

243
00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:12,559
Speaker 1: this gig, good luck, they thought out said whoever gets

244
00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:16,480
Speaker 1: the job is immediately going to be a target for

245
00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:19,600
Speaker 1: being taken out. They said, that is their stands going

246
00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:22,199
Speaker 1: to change. I haven't seen anything this morning that they've

247
00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:24,600
Speaker 1: evolved from that, thinking, Oh, I.

248
00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:28,760
Speaker 2: Would only imagine this is going to That was rhetoric perhaps,

249
00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:30,959
Speaker 2: or that was a threat perhaps at one point.

250
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:33,000
Speaker 3: Now they actually have to follow through on that threat.

251
00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:35,120
Speaker 2: And I will say We've said this plenty of times

252
00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:37,720
Speaker 2: when President Trump, and we've even heard Carolyn Levin say this,

253
00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:40,840
Speaker 2: when President Trump says he's going to do something, believe him.

254
00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:43,960
Speaker 2: And so they have made it very clear how they

255
00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:47,200
Speaker 2: feel about this. Just last week, in fact, President Trump

256
00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:50,040
Speaker 2: was saying so many of the leaders had been killed

257
00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:52,440
Speaker 2: in Iran. They were saying dozens and dozens of these

258
00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:55,080
Speaker 2: religious leaders were all killed. He said, pretty soon, we're

259
00:13:55,120 --> 00:13:57,320
Speaker 2: not going to know anybody, because they're all going to

260
00:13:57,320 --> 00:14:00,720
Speaker 2: be gone. But they asked him, the press specif asked

261
00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:03,880
Speaker 2: President Trump about a worst case scenario in Iran?

262
00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:04,880
Speaker 3: Had he prepared for it?

263
00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:06,720
Speaker 2: And he said, I guess the worst case would be

264
00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:10,040
Speaker 2: we do this and somebody takes over who's as bad

265
00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:13,000
Speaker 2: as the previous person. Right, that could happen. We don't

266
00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:16,080
Speaker 2: want that to happen. He literally said that, what, So now,

267
00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:18,040
Speaker 2: what do we do? So now it's worst case scenario.

268
00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:22,440
Speaker 1: Now things have been changing, the reasons the justification has

269
00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:27,520
Speaker 1: been changing regime is it no pete hexas specifically, this

270
00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:31,120
Speaker 1: is not a regime change war. Marco Rubio is saying

271
00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:33,840
Speaker 1: one other thing the president has been changing. So it's

272
00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:36,840
Speaker 1: just not clear. And Robes This is a big, big,

273
00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:40,200
Speaker 1: big deal that we went to war with this country

274
00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:43,640
Speaker 1: because of an imminent threat they posed as a regime,

275
00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:48,280
Speaker 1: We do all this and the regime doesn't change. Where

276
00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:49,320
Speaker 1: does that leave us with this.

277
00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:50,920
Speaker 3: War exactly where we started?

278
00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:54,840
Speaker 2: I mean, obviously, they've taken out some of their capabilities

279
00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:59,880
Speaker 2: in terms of weaponizing a lot of what we've been concerned,

280
00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:04,280
Speaker 2: and we've clearly put a massive dent in their ability

281
00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:07,720
Speaker 2: to fight back. But in just a matter of time

282
00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:10,840
Speaker 2: I mentioned time, they'll be able to rebuild. They would

283
00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:13,360
Speaker 2: be on the same path, on the same mission. And

284
00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:16,760
Speaker 2: certainly anybody who has risen up or who has even

285
00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:20,160
Speaker 2: celebrated in the streets, I'm sure they're very nervous right now.

286
00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:23,920
Speaker 1: Folks, just wanted to give you this Monday morning update.

287
00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:26,400
Speaker 1: But this is a big, big deal. This just happening

288
00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:30,120
Speaker 1: today in Iran state media there reporting that they have

289
00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:33,600
Speaker 1: in fact selected a new Supreme leader who has the

290
00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:36,080
Speaker 1: same name as the old one because it is his son.

291
00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:40,800
Speaker 1: Fifty six year old Ayatola mosh Tapa Hamane is now

292
00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:43,760
Speaker 1: the new Supreme leader. How will Israel and the United

293
00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:45,840
Speaker 1: States react? All right, folks who just want to hop
