WEBVTT - A Festering Sore 0:00:02.200 --> 0:00:06.480 Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio the George 0:00:06.519 --> 0:00:10.600 Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty. 0:00:10.520 --> 0:00:18.040 Arms Strong and Getty and no Hee Armstrong and Yetty. 0:00:23.720 --> 0:00:26.720 Mister Vice President, is the United States now at war 0:00:26.800 --> 0:00:29.440 with Iran? No, Kristen, We're not at war with Iran. 0:00:29.760 --> 0:00:33.720 We're at war with Iran's nuclear program. President's been very clear, Kristen. 0:00:33.800 --> 0:00:36.199 We have no interest in a protracted conflict. We have 0:00:36.280 --> 0:00:37.760 no interest in boots on the ground. 0:00:37.880 --> 0:00:39.600 I don't like the regime, but we're not into the 0:00:39.640 --> 0:00:42.680 regime change business here. We're into the safety and security 0:00:42.720 --> 0:00:43.839 of the United States business. 0:00:44.000 --> 0:00:45.879 We are not pursuing regime change. 0:00:46.040 --> 0:00:48.680 We're not trying to put any troops on the ground 0:00:48.720 --> 0:00:49.280 into Iran. 0:00:49.720 --> 0:00:52.760 We are trying to eliminate their nuclear weapons program. 0:00:52.920 --> 0:00:54.840 No, I don't think I see boots on the ground 0:00:55.000 --> 0:00:57.880 in our future, but I do see Israel not stopping. 0:00:58.240 --> 0:01:02.080 So that was JD. Vansvice President, Marco Rubio, the Secretary 0:01:02.120 --> 0:01:07.679 of State, Lindsey Graham and Tom Cotton, both very trumpy 0:01:08.160 --> 0:01:11.520 hawks in the Republican Party saying no or not, this 0:01:11.560 --> 0:01:13.760 isn't about regime change, and then Trump, like an hour 0:01:13.840 --> 0:01:17.039 after they all went on the TV shows defending his 0:01:17.120 --> 0:01:19.840 actions against a hostile press that, of course wanted us 0:01:19.880 --> 0:01:23.520 to do nothing. I guess Donald Trump tweeted out, it's 0:01:23.560 --> 0:01:26.840 not politically correct to use the term regime change, but 0:01:26.920 --> 0:01:29.959 if the current Iranian regime is unable to make Iran 0:01:30.080 --> 0:01:33.520 great again in all caps, why wouldn't there be a 0:01:33.560 --> 0:01:38.760 regime change mega, as in m I GA as in 0:01:38.880 --> 0:01:40.520 make America Iran great again. 0:01:40.840 --> 0:01:43.680 So I wonder if Iranian. 0:01:43.680 --> 0:01:47.720 Ex pats who despise the current regime, we'll start wearing 0:01:47.840 --> 0:01:50.840 mega hats with the old Iran flag on it. And 0:01:50.920 --> 0:01:53.480 we've got the lion on there, which has become a 0:01:53.520 --> 0:01:55.360 potent symbol of get the Mullahs out. 0:01:55.760 --> 0:01:58.080 Later this and about a half an hour, actually, we're 0:01:58.120 --> 0:01:59.920 going to talk to Mike Lyons, another one of our 0:02:00.080 --> 0:02:03.000 military analysts that we really like about how it went 0:02:03.160 --> 0:02:06.040 in what could come next. I just I don't personally 0:02:06.080 --> 0:02:08.680 get why Iran would do a lot of the things 0:02:08.720 --> 0:02:11.480 people are scared of happening. It just seems like it 0:02:11.520 --> 0:02:15.640 would be a soulicide mission. Well yeah, the only for 0:02:15.720 --> 0:02:16.720 the country argument. 0:02:17.320 --> 0:02:23.560 Well, right, but if you have a messianic religious fervor, 0:02:24.280 --> 0:02:26.880 as the Ayatola does allegedly and a lot of the 0:02:26.880 --> 0:02:30.280 people around him, you want to bring on the apocalypse. 0:02:30.400 --> 0:02:31.960 That's part of their religious politics. 0:02:34.560 --> 0:02:39.120 It hasn't happened yet, but that's the main argument for 0:02:39.280 --> 0:02:43.720 doing what was done, is that these are religious lunatics. 0:02:44.120 --> 0:02:48.000 These are not calculating dictators of a Kim Jong unish style. 0:02:48.280 --> 0:02:50.000 And that's a big enough pain in the ass that 0:02:50.040 --> 0:02:52.639 he has nukes, but they are religious lunatics. 0:02:52.760 --> 0:02:55.799 If they believe that and they strike, for instance, one 0:02:55.840 --> 0:02:58.040 of our bases and kill a whole bunch of US soldiers, 0:02:58.080 --> 0:03:02.800 it will be apocalyptic for one area of the world terran. 0:03:03.240 --> 0:03:05.120 The rest of the world is going to continue on. 0:03:06.160 --> 0:03:08.359 At which point the Muslim world. 0:03:10.400 --> 0:03:12.840 Unites and fights back against the Great Satan and brings 0:03:12.840 --> 0:03:14.359 on the great to religious war. 0:03:14.480 --> 0:03:16.720 I guess the. 0:03:16.800 --> 0:03:21.160 Concept of the thirteenth Mahdi, which I remember reading about 0:03:21.160 --> 0:03:24.040 a number of years ago. I can't remember why I 0:03:24.080 --> 0:03:25.280 had to do with a post nine one one. 0:03:25.400 --> 0:03:27.320 Probably after nine to eleven we all memorized this. 0:03:28.320 --> 0:03:32.680 It refers to a messianic figure in islam belief, often 0:03:32.680 --> 0:03:35.000 associated with the end times, who is expected to bring 0:03:35.120 --> 0:03:38.160 justice and peace to the world. While she a Muslim 0:03:38.480 --> 0:03:42.600 Islam in particular, anticipates the return of the twelfth Mahdi. 0:03:42.960 --> 0:03:45.120 Concept of the thirteenth Mahdi is not a standard part 0:03:45.120 --> 0:03:47.000 of the doctrine, but it's believed that some of the 0:03:47.400 --> 0:03:49.640 wackadoodles in charge of her hon are really into this, 0:03:49.920 --> 0:03:53.960 bringing on the apocalypse and Allah's justice being visited on 0:03:54.000 --> 0:03:55.000 the unbeliever's bubble. 0:03:55.080 --> 0:03:57.000 It's hard to know how much they actually believe it. 0:03:57.640 --> 0:04:00.280 You just never know. It might be a good way 0:04:00.320 --> 0:04:05.840 to hold sway over a bunch of religious nutjobs. I 0:04:05.880 --> 0:04:06.440 don't know. 0:04:06.760 --> 0:04:09.160 Out in the hinterlands, I mean the citizens. 0:04:09.240 --> 0:04:10.880 Yeah, I was just watching I was looking up at 0:04:10.880 --> 0:04:13.720 ABC News right now and they have Ian Pannel in 0:04:13.760 --> 0:04:17.400 Tel Aviv, and I thought he was in Kiev or 0:04:17.480 --> 0:04:22.440 some other bombed out town in Ukraine, because that's what 0:04:22.480 --> 0:04:24.719 it looked like in that little area with the apartment 0:04:24.720 --> 0:04:27.920 complex is just rubble. That's what's happening in some parts 0:04:28.000 --> 0:04:34.200 of sparkling, glittery, very modern tel Aviv. They're getting missile 0:04:34.240 --> 0:04:37.039 striked pretty good by Iran. And I can't imagine that 0:04:37.240 --> 0:04:39.839 Israel's going to allow that to happen for very long 0:04:39.880 --> 0:04:41.760 if they can stop it, so it isn't just what 0:04:41.800 --> 0:04:44.040 do we do next? Israel gets to say. 0:04:44.560 --> 0:04:47.160 Right, and from what I understand, Iran's held back some 0:04:47.200 --> 0:04:50.039 of the more heavy armaments and those might be on 0:04:50.120 --> 0:04:53.480 the way. So what role do we take and even 0:04:53.520 --> 0:04:57.400 more active role in intercepting ordinance as it flies toward Israel. 0:04:57.480 --> 0:04:59.440 Don't know, but it's far from over. 0:05:00.080 --> 0:05:05.040 While the success of the initial mission is unmistakable, Yeah, 0:05:05.120 --> 0:05:09.240 it's definitely a time of uncertainty and any sort of triumphalism. 0:05:08.520 --> 0:05:09.000 Well nobody. 0:05:09.000 --> 0:05:13.440 I don't think anybody's engaging any in any triumphalism. Jd Vance, 0:05:13.640 --> 0:05:17.680 Marco Rubio very serious in businesslike on the unwatchable talk 0:05:17.720 --> 0:05:18.679 shows over the weekend. 0:05:19.040 --> 0:05:22.480 Yeah, so I keep mentioning this. The four hundred kilograms 0:05:22.480 --> 0:05:25.839 of sixty percent enriched uranium is still out there somewhere 0:05:25.880 --> 0:05:28.719 as far as we know. Where is that because that's 0:05:28.800 --> 0:05:32.680 the important part of the whole nuclear program. That's why 0:05:32.720 --> 0:05:35.799 you had those reactor sites, was to make that stuff. 0:05:36.760 --> 0:05:39.960 And where is it? And do we know? 0:05:40.920 --> 0:05:43.480 That's a big question. Nobody knows. 0:05:43.560 --> 0:05:46.920 I don't think, well somebody knows, but we got to 0:05:46.960 --> 0:05:49.920 get it out of them. A couple of different perspectives 0:05:49.960 --> 0:05:52.720 to share with you, although, Jack, you've you've led us 0:05:52.920 --> 0:05:57.279 rather neatly into one from one of our listeners who is, 0:05:59.839 --> 0:06:02.960 if not an expert, damn close to it in the 0:06:03.080 --> 0:06:08.720 very world you're talking about the enrichment of uranium, And 0:06:09.120 --> 0:06:11.200 he says, and I'll keep him anonymous for now, the 0:06:11.279 --> 0:06:14.479 basis for criticism of the attack will most likely be 0:06:14.560 --> 0:06:17.280 the accusation that Iran was not close to being able 0:06:17.320 --> 0:06:20.400 to make a nuke. In fact, Jeff mccauslin of CBS 0:06:20.960 --> 0:06:23.880 advocated that position when he was on the show earlier today. 0:06:24.640 --> 0:06:26.840 But consider this little bit of math. If Iran has 0:06:26.839 --> 0:06:30.240 a stockpile of uranium refined to a level of three 0:06:30.279 --> 0:06:34.880 percent enrichment, as Iran and both the IAEA both claim 0:06:35.240 --> 0:06:38.520 that they do, then Iran has already refined the uranium 0:06:38.520 --> 0:06:40.680 more than ninety nine point nine to nine percent of 0:06:40.680 --> 0:06:45.159 the total refinement needed to achieve weapons grade enrichment. Or 0:06:45.240 --> 0:06:47.840 put another way, they ever fined something that exists at 0:06:47.920 --> 0:06:52.320 less than three parts per ten million distilled it down 0:06:52.360 --> 0:06:56.039 to three parts per one hundred. All they need to 0:06:56.040 --> 0:06:58.760 make weapons grade uranium is to further refine it by 0:06:58.839 --> 0:07:02.040 around thirtyfold, using the exact same technology that got them 0:07:02.040 --> 0:07:04.200 to the level they're at. One reason that Iran has 0:07:04.200 --> 0:07:06.600 been quote within a couple of weeks of getting a 0:07:06.720 --> 0:07:09.440 nuke for months or years is that quote a couple 0:07:09.640 --> 0:07:12.040 weeks is the time it would take to convert the 0:07:12.080 --> 0:07:14.440 three percent stuff to the ninety percent stuff. 0:07:14.960 --> 0:07:15.920 However, the likely. 0:07:15.840 --> 0:07:17.840 Hold up is that Iran also needs to work out 0:07:17.880 --> 0:07:21.680 all the details and engineering of the actual bomb, igniters, reflectors, 0:07:21.680 --> 0:07:24.000 et cetera, et cetera, and the ability to put it 0:07:24.040 --> 0:07:25.840 on a missile for delivery to its target. 0:07:26.640 --> 0:07:29.000 Those things are much harder. You don't have to put 0:07:29.000 --> 0:07:31.280 it on a missile for a target, though, has been 0:07:31.320 --> 0:07:33.280 pointed out many of people. All they got to do 0:07:33.400 --> 0:07:37.400 is drive a truck into Tel Aviv somehow, like you know, 0:07:37.520 --> 0:07:39.840 like Israel has apparently been able to do into Iran 0:07:39.880 --> 0:07:42.080 with drones and Ukraine was able to do into Russia 0:07:42.160 --> 0:07:45.840 with drones. Drive a truck into Israel or next to 0:07:45.880 --> 0:07:47.960 a US base. You don't need to put it on 0:07:48.040 --> 0:07:48.680 a rocket. 0:07:49.000 --> 0:07:52.560 Can you imagine a nuclear arm suicide bomber with a truck? 0:07:53.520 --> 0:07:56.760 Final bit that he says those things are much harder 0:07:56.800 --> 0:07:59.600 to track and inspect. But the important thing is that 0:07:59.600 --> 0:08:01.960 once they do work out those details, Iran can create 0:08:02.000 --> 0:08:06.360 weapons grade fissile material within a couple of weeks. 0:08:07.600 --> 0:08:10.440 Iran has been a I was about to use a 0:08:10.480 --> 0:08:14.360 really gross graphic medical example, but I don't need to. 0:08:14.280 --> 0:08:15.840 Thank Goodness for your restraint. 0:08:17.240 --> 0:08:19.760 God, I'm really wanting to. Yeah, no, I won't. 0:08:21.920 --> 0:08:24.040 What do you got for us? Tumor festering sore? 0:08:24.320 --> 0:08:27.240 Yeah, open festering shore with some more. Yeah, it's sort 0:08:27.280 --> 0:08:30.200 of a sort of graphic language that direction. But it 0:08:30.240 --> 0:08:32.680 has been that for so many years, and it's just 0:08:33.040 --> 0:08:36.520 the world just puts up with it. And maybe it's 0:08:36.559 --> 0:08:38.520 time the world doesn't put up with that. I mean, 0:08:38.559 --> 0:08:41.280 it's going nowhere. Good you just I guess said. The 0:08:41.320 --> 0:08:44.280 world has been hoping all this time that the ancient 0:08:44.800 --> 0:08:47.600 Ayatola will die or there'll be an overthrower or something 0:08:47.640 --> 0:08:50.000 like that. And you know, why why go to war 0:08:50.000 --> 0:08:52.319 and risk everything that is war if perhaps it'll die 0:08:52.320 --> 0:08:52.920 out on its own. 0:08:53.200 --> 0:08:55.800 But man, we've been waiting a long time. Or the 0:08:55.840 --> 0:08:58.200 belief that they don't really mean that stuff that death 0:08:58.240 --> 0:09:00.679 to America, death Israel. They don't, they don't actually mean that. 0:09:01.320 --> 0:09:04.720 The interesting part of this, and again there are question 0:09:04.760 --> 0:09:07.079 marks around this. I do not bring one hundred percent 0:09:07.120 --> 0:09:10.200 certainty to all of this, but the idea that we 0:09:10.520 --> 0:09:14.280 have now started a war with Iran. We are now 0:09:14.360 --> 0:09:19.040 at war. We have been attacked dozens and dozens and 0:09:19.280 --> 0:09:22.360 dozens of times in the United States, never mind Israel 0:09:22.480 --> 0:09:27.840 or close ally. Our people have been attacked in deadly fashion, 0:09:28.480 --> 0:09:31.160 many many times by Iran through the years they've been 0:09:31.200 --> 0:09:31.520 at war. 0:09:31.760 --> 0:09:32.600 We just haven't. 0:09:32.720 --> 0:09:35.760 Well, we're aware of much. We're aware of plots. We 0:09:35.840 --> 0:09:39.000 have captured some of the Iranian operatives to try to 0:09:39.120 --> 0:09:44.160 kill our president. That's not a terrible reason to bomb 0:09:44.200 --> 0:09:45.280 them right there. 0:09:46.120 --> 0:09:49.880 Right then, you have this perspective from the La County 0:09:49.880 --> 0:09:53.920 Sheriff's Department. Our hearts go out. This is from their 0:09:54.040 --> 0:09:57.160 official Twitter account. Our hearts go out to the victims 0:09:57.160 --> 0:10:01.800 and families impacted by the recent bombings in Iran. While 0:10:01.880 --> 0:10:05.360 this tragic event occurred overseas, the LA County Sheriff's Department 0:10:05.400 --> 0:10:08.800 is closely monitoring the situation alongside our local, state, and 0:10:08.880 --> 0:10:09.800 federal park. 0:10:09.640 --> 0:10:14.120 Why anyway, why my local sheriff monitoring what's going on 0:10:14.160 --> 0:10:17.199 in Iran? Our hearts go out to the victims and 0:10:17.400 --> 0:10:20.800 new families impacted by the recent bombings. Can you monitor 0:10:20.800 --> 0:10:23.400 my local Walgreens and CBS to make sure doesn't get 0:10:23.440 --> 0:10:25.080 rob blind. So what it can stay open? How about 0:10:25.120 --> 0:10:27.480 you let somebody else worry about Iran well. 0:10:27.520 --> 0:10:31.720 Not shockingly, not long after that, the La County Sheriff's 0:10:31.720 --> 0:10:33.880 Department put out the following statement. We are issuing this 0:10:33.960 --> 0:10:37.360 statement to formally apologize for an offensive and inappropriate social 0:10:37.480 --> 0:10:41.000 media post recently posting on our department social media platforms 0:10:41.480 --> 0:10:45.640 blah blahla. This post was unacceptable, made in error, does 0:10:45.679 --> 0:10:48.520 not reflect the views of Sheriff Robert G. Luna nor 0:10:48.600 --> 0:10:51.880 the department. Okay, who put it out, and we don't 0:10:51.920 --> 0:10:54.280 comment on that. This has nothing to do with our mission. 0:10:54.440 --> 0:10:56.480 Virtually everything you've said. 0:10:56.960 --> 0:10:59.120 Who put it out? Somebody that works for you? Are 0:10:59.160 --> 0:11:00.079 they still working there? 0:11:01.200 --> 0:11:01.960 They don't go to that. 0:11:02.400 --> 0:11:04.679 You're committed to learning from this failure and to prevent 0:11:04.760 --> 0:11:06.800 such incidents from occurring again. 0:11:07.160 --> 0:11:11.360 Somebody who works there in the Sheriff's department put that 0:11:11.480 --> 0:11:16.200 out thinking that that was what everybody thought and would 0:11:16.200 --> 0:11:19.320 be Okay, that person and everyone who was aware of 0:11:19.360 --> 0:11:21.120 that statement needs to go. 0:11:21.800 --> 0:11:22.720 I disagree. 0:11:22.880 --> 0:11:27.640 I suspect it was a woke activist employee who had 0:11:27.640 --> 0:11:29.320 access to the social media. 0:11:29.360 --> 0:11:32.160 Well, well they still haven't mentioned, did they get fired 0:11:32.280 --> 0:11:33.280 or they still work there? 0:11:33.800 --> 0:11:36.480 Steps are being taken a strength in our social media 0:11:36.640 --> 0:11:39.560 over a site protocols and to ensure that any future 0:11:39.559 --> 0:11:43.520 communications aligned with our department standards of professionalism, respect and accountability. 0:11:44.120 --> 0:11:46.680 We're rooting out the evil to her and will fire 0:11:46.720 --> 0:11:48.680 their ass and probably give them a little night stick 0:11:48.720 --> 0:11:50.680 on the way out. That's how I interpret that. 0:11:53.080 --> 0:11:55.040 Tend to put somebody with that point of view. 0:11:56.200 --> 0:12:03.120 Wow, well, all right, minor point moving along. 0:12:03.720 --> 0:12:07.280 Wouldn't somebody in that job supposedly have the best interest 0:12:07.360 --> 0:12:08.320 of the sheriff's department. 0:12:08.360 --> 0:12:10.560 That's what their job is. That's my point. That's not 0:12:10.640 --> 0:12:14.600 their job. They just had access to it. There's some underling. 0:12:14.760 --> 0:12:16.280 Maybe he knows how to. 0:12:16.320 --> 0:12:19.120 Blah blah, maybe tighten up your access like you and 0:12:19.160 --> 0:12:23.160 I don't have lots of people with really crazy ideas 0:12:23.240 --> 0:12:24.840 have access to art statements. 0:12:25.920 --> 0:12:29.880 No indeed coming up. How and when Trump made the 0:12:29.920 --> 0:12:33.040 decision to go. It's pretty interesting. He was a board 0:12:33.240 --> 0:12:34.280 marine one. 0:12:34.520 --> 0:12:36.120 According to inside sources. 0:12:37.200 --> 0:12:40.240 And this is the big headline. Millions on alert for 0:12:40.320 --> 0:12:43.360 life threatening heat across much of the country. What is 0:12:43.520 --> 0:12:51.439 causing this heat? Joe Getti has a theory summer more's 0:12:51.520 --> 0:12:52.160 my best theory. 0:12:52.200 --> 0:12:54.840 I'm still conducting experiments and consulting the calendar. 0:12:54.880 --> 0:12:56.920 That's a decent theory. More on the way, stay here, 0:13:01.320 --> 0:13:01.920 the Test. 0:13:01.720 --> 0:13:04.560 Of Thorpe all about it falls down, he looks hurt. 0:13:04.760 --> 0:13:07.440 There it comes Sga the other way inside of Williams 0:13:07.440 --> 0:13:08.199 throws it down. 0:13:09.200 --> 0:13:15.920 Halliburton's hurt right away. What he fell. That was the 0:13:15.920 --> 0:13:17.880 play of the game. And it happened in the first quarter. 0:13:18.040 --> 0:13:21.600 The star player for Indiana, who was on fire nine 0:13:21.640 --> 0:13:26.320 points and seven minutes and just dominating, was playing injured 0:13:26.440 --> 0:13:30.240 and he goes down and he immediately knew it was over. 0:13:30.320 --> 0:13:34.199 He's pounding the court, he's crying. Everybody on both teams 0:13:34.280 --> 0:13:37.600 knew too. Oh man, the best player on one team 0:13:37.760 --> 0:13:39.800 just went out. I mean, that's that's not what you're 0:13:39.840 --> 0:13:42.080 wanting a game seven. It was just it was horrible. 0:13:42.120 --> 0:13:44.040 He didn't they didn't. There's no attempt. I mean, he 0:13:44.120 --> 0:13:45.720 knew it was over. They just got him up and 0:13:45.760 --> 0:13:48.320 took him to the locker room. Is dang it. It 0:13:48.320 --> 0:13:51.440 could have been a really great game anyway, Okay, a. 0:13:51.080 --> 0:13:54.760 Very plucky effort against mighty Oklahoma that's got a bunch 0:13:54.760 --> 0:13:57.199 of I was just reading a bunch of super high 0:13:57.320 --> 0:14:01.120 draft choices. Yeah, over the next couple of years. I mean, 0:14:01.120 --> 0:14:04.200 they're just getting started. I've heard that before though in 0:14:04.240 --> 0:14:08.120 my life watching No it's a dynasty, clearly a dynasty. 0:14:07.800 --> 0:14:10.360 And things change. But I'm interested in the fact because 0:14:10.360 --> 0:14:13.239 this happened a couple of times in the playoffs. Athletes 0:14:13.280 --> 0:14:17.640 the whole they just know their body and and injuries 0:14:17.640 --> 0:14:19.600 and stuff like that in a way that like the 0:14:19.640 --> 0:14:22.320 rest of us don't. Apparently, like they know when they 0:14:22.320 --> 0:14:24.880 get an injury. Oh, this is this is huge, this 0:14:25.000 --> 0:14:27.840 is bad. I'm out for a year or whatever. Where 0:14:27.920 --> 0:14:31.040 is I, for instance, as just a regular human being 0:14:31.520 --> 0:14:34.400 regularly like twist a certain way and think, oh my god, 0:14:34.440 --> 0:14:36.960 I'm never gonna walk again, and then five minutes later, 0:14:37.040 --> 0:14:40.920 I'm fine. Oh sout. Apparently I'm all right. You know, 0:14:40.920 --> 0:14:43.200 you've been over picked something. Oh my god, this is it. 0:14:43.360 --> 0:14:46.160 I'll be in a chair. Ah, I'm gonna be driving 0:14:46.160 --> 0:14:48.720 a chair with my chin. Oh I'm fine. 0:14:48.960 --> 0:14:55.200 So, speaking of pain, Fox News Mark Levin nuked Representative 0:14:55.280 --> 0:15:00.000 Marjorie Taylor Green, I am unfortunately going to be quote 0:15:00.280 --> 0:15:03.200 media Eite, which is the shameless left wing rank, but 0:15:04.120 --> 0:15:09.680 they're getting the quotes right. On Sunday, Green tweeted MGT MTG. 0:15:09.760 --> 0:15:11.920 I never hear it called Green, so that it's confusing 0:15:12.120 --> 0:15:15.000 to me for a thing. Yeah, Margie said, I don't 0:15:15.040 --> 0:15:17.160 know anyone in America who has been the victim of 0:15:17.200 --> 0:15:19.960 a crime or killed by Iran, but I know many 0:15:20.000 --> 0:15:22.560 people who have been victims of crime committed by criminal 0:15:22.640 --> 0:15:27.200 legal aliens are murdered by cartel and Chinese fentanyl and drugs. However, 0:15:27.280 --> 0:15:30.520 America has not dropped bunker busters on the cartel sophisticated 0:15:30.560 --> 0:15:34.720 drug tunnels, launched tomahawks on massive cartel poisoning drug networks, 0:15:34.960 --> 0:15:39.680 et cetera, et cetera. Neokan warmongers beat their drums of 0:15:39.720 --> 0:15:42.160 war and act like billy badasses going to war in 0:15:42.200 --> 0:15:44.880 countries most Americans have never seen can't find on a map, 0:15:45.080 --> 0:15:46.800 but never find the courage to go to war against 0:15:46.840 --> 0:15:50.560 the actual terrorists who actually do kill Americans invaderland make 0:15:50.600 --> 0:15:52.520 billions doing it every day year after year. 0:15:53.160 --> 0:15:55.680 Man's that's the Tucker Carlson argument right there. 0:15:56.880 --> 0:15:57.080 Yeah. 0:15:57.160 --> 0:16:00.200 By the way, it's probably worth noting there wasn't ani 0:16:00.240 --> 0:16:04.120 and drone attack that actually killed three service members from 0:16:04.320 --> 0:16:06.240 Georgia in Jordan. 0:16:06.240 --> 0:16:07.240 Just last year. 0:16:08.120 --> 0:16:11.000 But well, in addition to thousands of American soldiers they've 0:16:11.040 --> 0:16:11.800 killed over the years. 0:16:12.840 --> 0:16:18.600 Right, and Levin fired back, Marjorie Taylor Green, shameless. 0:16:18.120 --> 0:16:20.200 Nit wit and everyone knows it. 0:16:20.720 --> 0:16:23.600 How incredibly dumb is this, Marjorie Taylor Green? She doesn't 0:16:23.640 --> 0:16:25.480 know anyone in America has been a victim of crime 0:16:25.520 --> 0:16:27.760 or killed by Iran. You mean the thousands of Americans, 0:16:27.840 --> 0:16:31.400 especially military personnel killed and maimed by the Iranian terrorist regime. 0:16:32.280 --> 0:16:34.880 He went on on that level. So, yeah, there's obviously 0:16:34.960 --> 0:16:36.360 a bit of a divide. 0:16:36.000 --> 0:16:36.440 On the right. 0:16:36.600 --> 0:16:40.000 Well was she you know, Well, according to polling, she's 0:16:40.040 --> 0:16:43.920 in a pretty small minority, although that is a loud 0:16:44.200 --> 0:16:47.960 minority that will donate a lot to your campaign if 0:16:48.000 --> 0:16:48.840 you represent them. 0:16:49.400 --> 0:16:54.320 Well, and the whole tossing out a false choice thing, Yeah, no, no, no, 0:16:54.480 --> 0:16:57.840 what happened here doesn't prevent us going after the cartels. 0:16:58.160 --> 0:17:00.880 It's not an either or never was, and how the 0:17:00.920 --> 0:17:02.200 hell do you imagine it is? 0:17:02.640 --> 0:17:04.720 But that sort of thing seems to be very popular. 0:17:04.800 --> 0:17:07.680 Yeah, does Mike Lions. We love talking to him about 0:17:07.680 --> 0:17:10.359 all things military. Will get his take on what happened 0:17:10.359 --> 0:17:13.600 and what could happen, among other things, to stay tuned. 0:17:15.400 --> 0:17:16.560 Armstrong and Getty. 0:17:18.119 --> 0:17:22.439 As the strike package approached for DOEU and Natence, the 0:17:22.640 --> 0:17:28.399 US protection package employed high speed suppression weapons to ensure 0:17:28.480 --> 0:17:32.719 safe passage of the strike package, with fighter assets employing 0:17:32.920 --> 0:17:38.640 preemptive suppressing fires against any potential Iranian surface to air threats. 0:17:39.320 --> 0:17:43.439 We are currently unaware of any shots fired at the 0:17:43.600 --> 0:17:46.359 US strike package on the way in Wow. 0:17:46.440 --> 0:17:49.919 So we were able to fly over Iran, drop all 0:17:49.960 --> 0:17:52.679 those bombs, do whatever we wanted, then leave without a 0:17:52.840 --> 0:17:54.440 shot being fired at us. 0:17:55.440 --> 0:17:58.719 To discuss the success of the mission, what's likely to 0:17:58.720 --> 0:18:01.760 come after, and much more or please welcome Mike Lyons, 0:18:01.760 --> 0:18:05.919 military analyst to the show again. Mike recently penned a 0:18:06.000 --> 0:18:09.320 terrific article for Real Clear Defense entitled The War that 0:18:09.440 --> 0:18:11.520 was Always Coming Mike welcome. 0:18:11.520 --> 0:18:12.960 How are you hey, guys? 0:18:13.000 --> 0:18:13.680 Great to be back. 0:18:14.040 --> 0:18:15.240 Could that have gone any better? 0:18:16.680 --> 0:18:19.760 Not really? I don't see how you know again all 0:18:19.760 --> 0:18:22.080 of warfare's deception. I think everybody was looking at the 0:18:22.119 --> 0:18:25.200 head fake of B two's getting stationed in Guam for 0:18:25.240 --> 0:18:29.359 a couple of days and taking their pictures there. I 0:18:29.400 --> 0:18:30.920 didn't think it was going to happen Saturday night. I 0:18:31.000 --> 0:18:33.240 thought it might have happened forty eight hours after that, 0:18:33.800 --> 0:18:36.520 but it couldn't have. And it just again shows American 0:18:36.720 --> 0:18:40.320 ingenuity planning with a lot of help of Israel. Let's 0:18:40.320 --> 0:18:42.600 face it. I mean they take out the entire air 0:18:42.640 --> 0:18:47.200 defense systems. That target was the most important thing inside 0:18:47.240 --> 0:18:50.359 of Iran and they were just completely incapable of defending it. 0:18:50.440 --> 0:18:53.239 So it just shows you the status of where they 0:18:53.280 --> 0:18:56.119 are and what the situation is US there don't know 0:18:56.160 --> 0:18:59.160 if it's been destroyed totally. I thought the chairman gave 0:18:59.359 --> 0:19:02.000 very guarded remarks about what the situation is. We've got 0:19:02.040 --> 0:19:04.920 our president calling Bullzheim's, you know, is one on one 0:19:04.960 --> 0:19:08.639 is pretty different and it's not the end, but it 0:19:08.720 --> 0:19:13.080 surely sets back their their program, and it was frankly inevitable. 0:19:13.080 --> 0:19:14.679 At some point US or Israel was going to do it. 0:19:15.119 --> 0:19:18.840 And Iran is not technically defenseless, but they're as close 0:19:18.880 --> 0:19:22.200 as a significant power has been in my memory. 0:19:23.160 --> 0:19:23.440 Right. 0:19:24.160 --> 0:19:26.520 You know, they had say three hundreds, say four hundreds, 0:19:26.560 --> 0:19:29.840 They had strategic level air defense systems that are all gone. 0:19:30.200 --> 0:19:33.719 Their capability to create ballistic missiles is gone. That went 0:19:33.760 --> 0:19:37.240 out about six months ago the rains you attridded all 0:19:37.280 --> 0:19:40.840 of the capability out. They've obviously taken away and stripped 0:19:40.840 --> 0:19:44.399 away has Blah Humas, the hu Thi's, all of those 0:19:44.560 --> 0:19:47.760 proxy brigade, all those all those people that were fighting 0:19:47.800 --> 0:19:50.000 their war are all gone. So they are very well 0:19:50.040 --> 0:19:53.360 exposed right now. And I don't think Israel stopping. In fact, 0:19:53.400 --> 0:19:57.480 they're going for the Supreme Leader decapitation. His strategy is 0:19:57.520 --> 0:19:59.959 in their DNA. It's in their DNA since nineteen four 0:20:00.000 --> 0:20:03.080 forty eight. They're not going to stop. And also, this 0:20:03.240 --> 0:20:05.159 is not going to be just because they do this. 0:20:05.600 --> 0:20:07.320 You know, they're going to be responsible for rebuilding it. 0:20:07.320 --> 0:20:09.560 They're not going to care. They're just going to see 0:20:09.560 --> 0:20:11.399 what happens. But they're not going to put up the 0:20:11.440 --> 0:20:13.680 targets are going after right now, specifically the army. I 0:20:13.720 --> 0:20:16.879 think that's really important because that's where the power center 0:20:16.920 --> 0:20:20.199 will be. Once the Supreme Leader is gone, someone in 0:20:20.200 --> 0:20:23.440 this in their military will will rise up, have access 0:20:23.440 --> 0:20:26.399 to that equipment and try to take over by force. 0:20:26.520 --> 0:20:28.920 And I think that's smart going after the army leaders 0:20:28.920 --> 0:20:29.600 as well right now. 0:20:29.720 --> 0:20:31.400 Yeah, you know the history of these sorts of things 0:20:31.520 --> 0:20:35.800 is some popular military leader who has a lot of 0:20:35.800 --> 0:20:37.960 people who are willing to follow them takes over. But 0:20:38.000 --> 0:20:40.280 if you kill all the popular military leaders, it makes 0:20:40.320 --> 0:20:41.480 it a lot less likely. 0:20:42.280 --> 0:20:45.879 Yeah, in the scenario of potentially someone coming from outside, 0:20:45.920 --> 0:20:48.679 I know the Shah's son has been on social media 0:20:48.760 --> 0:20:53.680
