1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,360 Speaker 1: Third hour of play, and Bucket's going right now, we 2 00:00:03,440 --> 00:00:08,440 Speaker 1: have some big breaking news from overseas. Here in the 3 00:00:08,480 --> 00:00:12,680 Speaker 1: final hour of the program on this Friday in IDF 4 00:00:12,760 --> 00:00:19,960 Speaker 1: is really defense forces strike and airstrike on residential buildings 5 00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:25,600 Speaker 1: near Beirut, the capital of Lebanon, that it has been confirmed, 6 00:00:26,560 --> 00:00:33,879 Speaker 1: were intended to target Hassan Nosrala. Hassan Nosrala is the 7 00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:37,919 Speaker 1: secretary general of Hesbelah, the head of Hesbolah, the terrorist 8 00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:43,280 Speaker 1: organization that runs Lebanon and has been at war with 9 00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:51,479 Speaker 1: Israel for decades and has been firing artillery shells and 10 00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:54,920 Speaker 1: rockets and mortars on and off, day in and day 11 00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:58,720 Speaker 1: out now since the October seventh Hamas attack on Israel. 12 00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:02,880 Speaker 1: What we are still finding out as we're speaking to you. 13 00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:05,480 Speaker 1: It is confirmed and there's video in the New York 14 00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:10,200 Speaker 1: Times is reporting everyone's reporting on this right now confirm it. 15 00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:15,920 Speaker 1: There was a major Israeli airstrike on these civilian these 16 00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:21,720 Speaker 1: civilian buildings. Because the IDF is saying that effectively Hasible 17 00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:25,399 Speaker 1: as central headquarters was beneath the buildings. We know from 18 00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:27,880 Speaker 1: Hamas and hesbel A tactics that this is right in 19 00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:30,720 Speaker 1: line with what they do they put military targets. This 20 00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:33,120 Speaker 1: is a violation of the Geneva Convention, the laws of 21 00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:38,000 Speaker 1: war by the way. They put military sites under civilian targets, 22 00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:40,600 Speaker 1: so then if you actually hit the military target, you're 23 00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:42,560 Speaker 1: also going to hit the civilian site. They do this 24 00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:45,600 Speaker 1: with mosques, with schools, with hospitals, They've done it with 25 00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:49,480 Speaker 1: some of these buildings outside of Bay Route. This is 26 00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:52,440 Speaker 1: in a kind of like a suburb of Bay Root, 27 00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:57,160 Speaker 1: if you will. And Clay, what we're just starting to 28 00:01:57,200 --> 00:01:59,560 Speaker 1: find out is do you have it confirmed? 29 00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:02,320 Speaker 2: Well, well, no, I think we need to be careful. 30 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:04,960 Speaker 3: There are reports and I want to read what the 31 00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:09,360 Speaker 3: what the latest things that are out there are. Again, 32 00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:11,400 Speaker 3: this is probably not going to shock you, certainly, but 33 00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:13,040 Speaker 3: I don't even think it will shock many of our 34 00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:16,920 Speaker 3: audience out there. We know that the heads of Hesbola 35 00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:19,560 Speaker 3: were meeting in Beirut and that there was an attack 36 00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:24,400 Speaker 3: on them shortly after NETANYAHUO finished speaking. There have been 37 00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 3: reports that the heads of Hesbol. 38 00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:30,160 Speaker 1: Real quick Nenya, who's speaking at the United Nations General 39 00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:33,040 Speaker 1: Assembly in New York right now, so almost simultaneously he's 40 00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:35,400 Speaker 1: speaking at the you in General Assembly, there's this strike. 41 00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:41,480 Speaker 1: Keep going click so there are conflicting reports about whether Nazurala, 42 00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:45,280 Speaker 1: that basically the head of the Hesbola has been killed 43 00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 1: or not. Several different news stories out conflicting reports. The 44 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:54,799 Speaker 1: Iranian embassy has put out a statement saying there has 45 00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:59,240 Speaker 1: been a dangerous escalation that changes the rules of the game. 46 00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:00,919 Speaker 2: Just be aware. 47 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:06,760 Speaker 3: Also, the alert level at every Israeli embassy around the 48 00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:09,840 Speaker 3: world has been raised to the highest levels. But that 49 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:13,880 Speaker 3: would suggest that there may have been Certainly the strike 50 00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:16,959 Speaker 3: killed a lot of people, but they may have taken 51 00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:20,080 Speaker 3: out many more of the top leaders. But that is 52 00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 3: what we know for sure. Some reports that some of 53 00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 3: those top leaders are dead, some people saying they're alive. 54 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 2: We still are waiting. 55 00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:29,639 Speaker 1: Okay, let's just put this in a context for a second. 56 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:37,120 Speaker 1: It was just a week ago when roughly when Israel 57 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:46,120 Speaker 1: put in action in operation that exploding pagers and radios, 58 00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:52,200 Speaker 1: operation that took out thousands of Hesbala fighters with severe injuries, 59 00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:55,440 Speaker 1: killed a few dozen of them. But it had showed 60 00:03:55,480 --> 00:04:00,000 Speaker 1: that Israel had managed to get into the supply chain 61 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:06,600 Speaker 1: specifically for Hesbela terrorist operations and effectively told them all 62 00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:09,080 Speaker 1: or showed them all you are safe nowhere and we 63 00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:13,920 Speaker 1: can get you anywhere now after that, which is play 64 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:21,640 Speaker 1: one of the most uh incredible intelligence espionage sabotage operations 65 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:24,760 Speaker 1: honestly in history. I mean, I've never heard of anything 66 00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:28,120 Speaker 1: like that before, and and I'm pretty familiar with the 67 00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:31,560 Speaker 1: history of intel and espionage. Now looks like they may 68 00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:35,840 Speaker 1: they may have decapitated with one strike the leadership of 69 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:41,960 Speaker 1: Hesbelah and possibly even killed Hassan Nasralla, who has been 70 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:47,680 Speaker 1: running Hesbelah and truly Lebanon for decades, a mortal enemy 71 00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:52,359 Speaker 1: of the Israeli state and the Jewish people devoted to 72 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:57,360 Speaker 1: the destruction of Israel, obsessed with it really, and Clay 73 00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:05,400 Speaker 1: very involved with Hesbela and Iranian operations in Syria, very 74 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:09,359 Speaker 1: close relationship with the Mullahs in Iran. Really, Hesbela is 75 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:16,640 Speaker 1: a proxy of the Iranian Mulla's and they turned through 76 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:20,919 Speaker 1: that Lebanon into essentially a client state of the Iranian 77 00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:26,320 Speaker 1: regime right on Israel's doorstep. Now, this doesn't end the conflict. 78 00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 1: In fact, this may very well dramatically escalate it. But 79 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:32,479 Speaker 1: to me, this shows and we can play what Nennyahu 80 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:35,920 Speaker 1: said today, this has cut seventeen but this shows that 81 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:39,960 Speaker 1: Israel is not holding back anymore when it comes to 82 00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:44,359 Speaker 1: its security. Defense doesn't care what anybody outside externally is 83 00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:47,839 Speaker 1: going to say and criticize. Here's what nen Yahoo's talking 84 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:49,799 Speaker 1: about today at the United Nations playoff. 85 00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:55,159 Speaker 4: Israel seeks peace, Israel yearns for peace. Israel has made 86 00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:59,800 Speaker 4: peace and will make peace again. Yet we face savage 87 00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:03,840 Speaker 4: and MMI who seek our annihilation, and we must defend 88 00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:09,040 Speaker 4: ourselves against these savage murderers. Our enemies seek not only 89 00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:13,360 Speaker 4: to destroy us, they seek to destroy our common civilization 90 00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:17,040 Speaker 4: and return all of us to a dark age of 91 00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:18,360 Speaker 4: tyranny and terror. 92 00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:21,719 Speaker 1: Clay, this is like Israel had it's nine to eleven, 93 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:23,840 Speaker 1: and they are responding the way that we respond that 94 00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:26,039 Speaker 1: after nine to eleven, which is you want to try 95 00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:29,040 Speaker 1: to destroy our civilization, we will do whatever it takes. 96 00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:30,640 Speaker 2: No doubt. 97 00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:33,040 Speaker 3: And I think we should directly connect because some of 98 00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:34,520 Speaker 3: you are going to say, Okay, we got an American 99 00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:37,520 Speaker 3: presidential election in thirty eight days, whatever the math is, 100 00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:40,840 Speaker 3: why are we focused on what's going on in the 101 00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:44,400 Speaker 3: Middle East? That is a common complaint might be also 102 00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:49,520 Speaker 3: complaints about Ukraine. This one directly relates to the United 103 00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:54,160 Speaker 3: States right now, Buck, because Iran which funds Hezbolah and 104 00:06:54,240 --> 00:07:00,440 Speaker 3: funds Hamas to be proxy warring against Israel, is also 105 00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:03,880 Speaker 3: trying to kill Donald Trump. So this is part of 106 00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:10,040 Speaker 3: a larger global conflagration that has emerged where Iran is 107 00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:14,440 Speaker 3: funding everything that goes on with Hamas, They're funding everything 108 00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:18,560 Speaker 3: that goes on with Hesbola. They are simultaneously trying to 109 00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 3: put their own nuclear ambitions complete them right to be 110 00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:27,360 Speaker 3: able to have nuclear weapons, and they are trying to 111 00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:32,080 Speaker 3: kill President Trump. And so whatever is happening in the 112 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:34,520 Speaker 3: Middle East is not really divorced at all, to say 113 00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:36,600 Speaker 3: nothing of the fact that Netanyahu is speaking at the 114 00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:38,960 Speaker 3: UN in New York City. But Buck, this is in 115 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 3: no way divorced from the current American political climate where 116 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:47,320 Speaker 3: everywhere Trump goes right now, Iran's trying to kill him. 117 00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:50,560 Speaker 3: And their reports and we haven't even talked about this, 118 00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:52,200 Speaker 3: but I bet you saw them, And I think what's 119 00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:55,840 Speaker 3: worth mentioning that Trump isn't even able to do the 120 00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 3: rallies he wants to do because they are too concerned 121 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:03,560 Speaker 3: about whether or not the government, your secret service, my 122 00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:05,240 Speaker 3: secret service can actually. 123 00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:05,680 Speaker 2: Keep him safe. 124 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:08,400 Speaker 3: So this is the world in which we are living 125 00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:11,840 Speaker 3: right now, and Buck with the one year anniversary of 126 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:15,720 Speaker 3: October seventh, basically a week away. I don't think it's 127 00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:18,280 Speaker 3: crazy at all to think that something in the Middle 128 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:22,640 Speaker 3: East could be one of these massive October surprises, either 129 00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:26,320 Speaker 3: something happening there or a terror attack that comes to 130 00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:29,120 Speaker 3: our shore and something that they may happen here. 131 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:29,800 Speaker 5: Well. 132 00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:34,240 Speaker 1: So there's an important reality that I think is dawning 133 00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:38,000 Speaker 1: on the enemies of Israel in the aftermath of October seventh, Clay, 134 00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:44,680 Speaker 1: and it is that there's this standard national security analysis 135 00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:48,600 Speaker 1: that goes, oh, well, they'll ratchet up as you ratchet up, 136 00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:52,079 Speaker 1: or this will escalate, and then you'll escalate. The truth 137 00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:56,320 Speaker 1: is that Israel militarily, when it comes to the use 138 00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:59,720 Speaker 1: of force, is in a different league, a different tier 139 00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:05,720 Speaker 1: from its enemies. But because of humanitarian concerns, because of 140 00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:10,320 Speaker 1: the fundamental and core decency of the Israeli state and 141 00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:16,679 Speaker 1: the Israeli people, they are proportionate. I think Israel has 142 00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:19,920 Speaker 1: decided post October seventh. Look, we're going to still try 143 00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:22,360 Speaker 1: to abide by the laws of war as well as 144 00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:26,360 Speaker 1: any military force that is under threat will or can. 145 00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:31,360 Speaker 1: But we are showing now, meaning speaking from the Israeli perspective. 146 00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:34,520 Speaker 1: They are showing the enemies of Israel that we will 147 00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:38,840 Speaker 1: go for the jugular wherever you are, whoever you think 148 00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:41,880 Speaker 1: you are. If you're going to be plotting terrorist attacks 149 00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:44,480 Speaker 1: against the Israeli state, if you think you're going to 150 00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:47,839 Speaker 1: hide in some building somewhere, we are going to blow 151 00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:49,679 Speaker 1: you up. We are going to kill you and your 152 00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:52,880 Speaker 1: bodyguards and your advisors, and we're not going to think 153 00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:57,480 Speaker 1: twice about it. This the escalation in a sense, is 154 00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:01,600 Speaker 1: the Israelis deciding the gloves come off. And that's what 155 00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:04,560 Speaker 1: we're seeing with Hesbela, That's what we saw on Gaza, 156 00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:07,080 Speaker 1: and so you know this factor's in. You know, if 157 00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:09,839 Speaker 1: people keep saying maybe Iran's going to do something really big, 158 00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:12,959 Speaker 1: I don't think they want to see what the Israelis 159 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:15,199 Speaker 1: would do in response. Given the mindset of the Israeli 160 00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:16,160 Speaker 1: people right now. 161 00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:18,520 Speaker 3: Not only that, I mean, what are you thinking if 162 00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:21,640 Speaker 3: you're Hesbla. To your point, Buck, they blew up your pagers, 163 00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:25,160 Speaker 3: they blew up your walkie talkies, they took out a 164 00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:28,800 Speaker 3: ton of the top leadership last week, and now they're 165 00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:30,840 Speaker 3: supposed to be a super secret meeting going on with 166 00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:33,600 Speaker 3: Hesbola and Beirut, and they may have blown up that 167 00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 3: entire meeting. You want to talk about your infrastructure being corrupted. 168 00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:41,320 Speaker 3: Israel knows better than a lot of the members of 169 00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:44,680 Speaker 3: Hesbola do what Hesbola is trying to do from one 170 00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:47,480 Speaker 3: moment to another, and I would think that's also a 171 00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:51,199 Speaker 3: lesson both for Iran but also Hamas right now is 172 00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:53,240 Speaker 3: on the back burner. There's been very little talk about 173 00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:56,080 Speaker 3: what's going on there. Instead, the war has moved to 174 00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:59,920 Speaker 3: southern Lebanon and it has turned into a turned into 175 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:02,600 Speaker 3: huge mess. We'll see if we get any confirmation and data. 176 00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:05,360 Speaker 3: But again, the way that the people are responding makes 177 00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:07,400 Speaker 3: me feel like this may very well have been a 178 00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:12,439 Speaker 3: successful decapitation of Hesbol's main leadership, and we will see 179 00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:16,760 Speaker 3: what sort of response is coming, if any, given what 180 00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:19,800 Speaker 3: we've seen with the pager and radio operation. 181 00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:21,960 Speaker 1: I mean, if you're asking me right now, do I 182 00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:25,240 Speaker 1: think that got Hassan Usralla, I think the answer is yes, 183 00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:29,280 Speaker 1: we don't know yet. We shall see and maybe he's wounded, 184 00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:32,920 Speaker 1: maybe he wasn't killed in the strike. But this is 185 00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:38,599 Speaker 1: this is sending literal shockwaves through this suburb of Beirut, 186 00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:41,679 Speaker 1: and you know, there's always this sense of, oh, well, 187 00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:44,719 Speaker 1: we could have more escalation in the add least. I 188 00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:47,960 Speaker 1: just think the idea f in the Israelis. You'll notice it, 189 00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:50,640 Speaker 1: like Biden and all that they're not even Israel's just 190 00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:53,200 Speaker 1: doing what it has to do to defend itself. There's 191 00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:55,040 Speaker 1: none of this oh you know, this kind of mother 192 00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:58,240 Speaker 1: may I with the US administration right now, that's not happening. 193 00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:03,120 Speaker 1: And I think the fact that Nan Yahoo's giving a 194 00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:06,400 Speaker 1: fiery speech at the UN right around the time that 195 00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:08,320 Speaker 1: a strike like this is happening just goes to show 196 00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:12,760 Speaker 1: you that, I mean, after any people anywhere in the 197 00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:17,000 Speaker 1: world who suffered through what happened on October seventh would 198 00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:20,640 Speaker 1: feel morally justified in doing whatever it takes to secure 199 00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:21,880 Speaker 1: themselves and their people. 200 00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:22,559 Speaker 2: At this point. 201 00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:24,679 Speaker 1: And that's where That's where the Israelis are, and that's 202 00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:26,600 Speaker 1: where we were after nine to eleven, which is how 203 00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:29,200 Speaker 1: I've thought about this all along. That's where people could 204 00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:31,440 Speaker 1: you know, there were complaints about what are we doing 205 00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:34,439 Speaker 1: in Afghanistan and other civilian casualties and everything else. Well, 206 00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:38,640 Speaker 1: we're going after the enemy. So I will see if 207 00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:40,640 Speaker 1: we get the confirmation this by the way, We've got 208 00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:43,720 Speaker 1: Jack Carr joining us in just a little bit about 209 00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:47,160 Speaker 1: really in many ways the start of Hesba law as 210 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:52,199 Speaker 1: a global terrorist entity or it's it's it's its biggest 211 00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:56,080 Speaker 1: operation in all time, which was, you know, on a 212 00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:58,200 Speaker 1: global level. What got it really a lot of attention 213 00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:02,400 Speaker 1: was the bombing of the marine barrack, which killed around 214 00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:04,960 Speaker 1: three hundred Americans two hundred and eighty something. I remember, 215 00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:07,400 Speaker 1: and if I'm not mistaken, Buck, I think one of 216 00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:10,920 Speaker 1: the attacks on Hesbola by Israel in the last week 217 00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:13,960 Speaker 1: killed a guy with seven million dollars bounty on his 218 00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:17,480 Speaker 1: head from that nineteen eighty three bombing that he had 219 00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:20,160 Speaker 1: been wanted for nearly forty some odd years. 220 00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:23,880 Speaker 2: Now Israel is settling scores. Go ahead, Yeah, Israel for sure. 221 00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:26,600 Speaker 3: And we're talking about what Netanyahu said at the UN 222 00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:30,280 Speaker 3: and also what Israel's doing to defend itself. And look, 223 00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:33,360 Speaker 3: Israel's fighting evil and they need your help, they need 224 00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:37,280 Speaker 3: your support. And one organization dedicated to supporting Israel is 225 00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:40,640 Speaker 3: the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews, that's the IFCJ. 226 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:44,120 Speaker 3: For more than forty years, the IFCJ has been on 227 00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:46,680 Speaker 3: the ground in Israel.

And and I wanted to hit you guys 248 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:06,040 Speaker 3: with this. This was just shared by the incredibly good 249 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:09,280 Speaker 3: looking film Alugion, who also happens to have fantastic information, 250 00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:14,520 Speaker 3: particularly as it deals with border related issues. These are 251 00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:22,359 Speaker 3: real numbers. Thirteen thousand that we know of. Thirteen thousand 252 00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:26,760 Speaker 3: illegal immigrants have entered this country who have been convicted 253 00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:33,680 Speaker 3: of homicide in other countries. Sixteen thousand illegal immigrants that 254 00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:36,800 Speaker 3: we know of have entered this country who have been 255 00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:44,960 Speaker 3: convicted of rape. This is staggering, staggering numbers. This is 256 00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:48,000 Speaker 3: the official number according to Bill malugin Buck, this is 257 00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:56,640 Speaker 3: what we know of. Thirteen thousand murderers. Sixteen thousand rapists 258 00:15:57,080 --> 00:16:01,880 Speaker 3: from other countries have crossed our othern border and are 259 00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:05,400 Speaker 3: now wreaking havoc on American citizens. I mean, I knew 260 00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:09,000 Speaker 3: the number was high, probably Buck, but I never would 261 00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:12,080 Speaker 3: have believed that it was this high when Trump has 262 00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:17,480 Speaker 3: been saying they are clearing out their prisons and sending 263 00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:22,080 Speaker 3: many of their worst on the march to America. Thirteen 264 00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:27,320 Speaker 3: thousand illegals who have been convicted of homicide, sixteen thousand 265 00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:34,040 Speaker 3: convicted of rape, and that is a pretty unbelievable Trump 266 00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:39,400 Speaker 3: has commented on this, Buck said, shared these numbers and said, 267 00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:43,640 Speaker 3: Kamala's open border. Nobody who has allowed this to happen 268 00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:45,520 Speaker 3: to our country is fit to be president of the 269 00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:48,440 Speaker 3: United States. Bad timing for her to show up at 270 00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:52,080 Speaker 3: the border today after not going for four years. Why 271 00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:57,080 Speaker 3: didn't she release these numbers earlier? That is directly from Trump. 272 00:16:57,160 --> 00:17:00,720 Speaker 3: He also says she should immediately cancel her news conference 273 00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:06,320 Speaker 3: because she has failed. And those are Trump commentary. 274 00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:12,919 Speaker 1: If we had control of our border and control of 275 00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:16,119 Speaker 1: all points supports of entry, you know people are flying 276 00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:19,479 Speaker 1: into the country from these places too. Not a single 277 00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:23,240 Speaker 1: criminal should be able to enter the United States period. 278 00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:25,800 Speaker 1: There should there should If you have a criminal, a 279 00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:31,160 Speaker 1: serious violent criminal record, there should be no mechanism for you. 280 00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:33,240 Speaker 1: You flying from an airport, we go up, Sorry, not 281 00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:35,280 Speaker 1: allowed you come to the border, We go up, sorry, 282 00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:38,960 Speaker 1: not allowed. Tens of thousands of them coming into the 283 00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:42,480 Speaker 1: country while Joe and Kamala are asleep at the wheel. 284 00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:44,399 Speaker 1: Actually it's worse than that. They want them to come in. 285 00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:47,920 Speaker 1: As we know, it's a huge it's a huge scandal, 286 00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:52,240 Speaker 1: a huge scandal. So uh, we'll continue to cover this 287 00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:55,280 Speaker 1: and talk to or bring you all these facts, and 288 00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:58,119 Speaker 1: we'll talk to you Jack Carr here in just a second. 289 00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:00,960 Speaker 1: Several weeks ago, we introduce you to a new company 290 00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:03,879 Speaker 1: called Rapid Radios, a company making modern walkie talkies that 291 00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:07,600 Speaker 1: can really come in handy. Rapid Radios are walkie talkies 292 00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:10,439 Speaker 1: with a cell phone level connection, so you get the 293 00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:13,320 Speaker 1: push to talk ability, and this one step connection makes 294 00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:15,520 Speaker 1: it easier and quicker to offer than a cell phone.

Come back into Clay and Buck. 310 00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:04,639 Speaker 1: We're joined by Jack Carr. He's a former Navy seal 311 00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:07,680 Speaker 1: sniper and now best selling author. He's got his first 312 00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:10,680 Speaker 1: non fiction book that has just come out. I've got 313 00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:15,360 Speaker 1: my copy here, targeted Beirut, the nineteen eighty three Marine 314 00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:18,800 Speaker 1: Barracks bombing, and the untold origin story of the War 315 00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:22,120 Speaker 1: on Terror. Jack, great to have you as always. 316 00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:23,080 Speaker 2: I mean, I have to. 317 00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:27,679 Speaker 1: Say the timing here is pretty uncanny, considering you and 318 00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:31,680 Speaker 1: I are talking and the world is basically trying to 319 00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:36,479 Speaker 1: figure out if Hassan Nasralla is dead under a pile 320 00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:39,440 Speaker 1: of rubble and Beirut. This guy's been running Hasbala since 321 00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:42,320 Speaker 1: the early nineties. What do you make of it? 322 00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:45,520 Speaker 5: That's right, Well, I started this thing about three years 323 00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:47,560 Speaker 5: ago when I pitched Simon and Schuster on the idea 324 00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:50,439 Speaker 5: of a non fiction series looking at different terrorist events 325 00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:53,080 Speaker 5: in their effect on US foreign policy, trying to capture 326 00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:57,480 Speaker 5: those strategic, operational, tactical less level lessons learned while also 327 00:19:57,640 --> 00:20:01,000 Speaker 5: humanizing these events for future generations. So that senior level 328 00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:03,520 Speaker 5: leaders know that there are impacts to the decisions they 329 00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:06,000 Speaker 5: make thousands of miles away from the battlefield in air 330 00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:08,399 Speaker 5: conditioned offices. But yeah, I just got off a plane 331 00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:11,280 Speaker 5: from a stop on book tour and saw that Nostralla 332 00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:14,479 Speaker 5: has been apparently targeted in Beirut. And the only thing 333 00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:16,560 Speaker 5: that surprises me about that is why it has taken 334 00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:20,760 Speaker 5: so long. His predecessor was killed back in nineteen ninety two, 335 00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:23,280 Speaker 5: and he took over back then and is the secretary 336 00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:26,679 Speaker 5: General of Hesbula, And I just surprised that Israel has 337 00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:29,680 Speaker 5: let him live this long, especially with the capabilities that 338 00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:33,280 Speaker 5: they've had for decades now. And we saw, of course 339 00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:37,480 Speaker 5: the pager and the walkie hockey, the capabilities to hit 340 00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:40,359 Speaker 5: people with those, And I'm just surprised he's still breathing. 341 00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:44,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, it would know you fallow up, buck, because I 342 00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:47,600 Speaker 3: was going to say, I mean, this is bringing this 343 00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:49,280 Speaker 3: in some ways full circle. 344 00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:52,520 Speaker 1: I mean, hes Bela, your book, your book out today, 345 00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:57,000 Speaker 1: Targeted beay Root, is about what was really the greatest 346 00:20:57,359 --> 00:21:02,360 Speaker 1: loss of life terrorist attack for America before nine to eleven. 347 00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:06,320 Speaker 1: I mean, the bombing of the Marine barracks sent a 348 00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:09,399 Speaker 1: shockwave through the entirety of the West, cernainly America and 349 00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:11,920 Speaker 1: the armed forces back in eighty three, and it was 350 00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:14,240 Speaker 1: a hesbal operation in many ways, the beginning of the 351 00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:15,320 Speaker 1: war on terror. 352 00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:18,600 Speaker 5: That's right. Yeah, two hundred and twenty marines, eighteen sailors, 353 00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:22,400 Speaker 5: three soldiers killed that day. There were others killed between 354 00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:25,600 Speaker 5: an embassy bombing which happened in April nineteen eighty three, 355 00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:29,879 Speaker 5: multiple people killed throughout that summer fall until October twenty third. 356 00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:33,320 Speaker 5: And what it did, though, is it taught Iran that 357 00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:37,280 Speaker 5: terrorism works, and it worked by using proxies. And really, 358 00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:40,880 Speaker 5: Iran set the rules for the war on terror back then, 359 00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:44,400 Speaker 5: and it's the model and the paradigm that we've been 360 00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:48,480 Speaker 5: essentially adhering to ever since. So it's important to note 361 00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:51,560 Speaker 5: that Iran set these rules all the way back then. 362 00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:54,719 Speaker 5: And it was the largest non nuclear explosion on record 363 00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:58,840 Speaker 5: at that time in history. And it is heartbreaking, obviously. 364 00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:03,080 Speaker 3: Jack, you obviously have to rip many of your stories 365 00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:07,680 Speaker 3: from the headlines the Terminal List best selling book series. 366 00:22:08,080 --> 00:22:12,240 Speaker 3: When you saw that Israel had managed to explode pagers, 367 00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:17,320 Speaker 3: walkie talkies, among other things of Hesbola, did you think 368 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:19,560 Speaker 3: to yourself, Man that's a heck of a plot point 369 00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:23,760 Speaker 3: to even be contemplating that they would have that kind 370 00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:27,399 Speaker 3: of intelligence capabilities. And how much given what's going on 371 00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:30,000 Speaker 3: right now with Iran and all the craziness going on 372 00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:34,600 Speaker 3: in the world, for you trying to think up different storylines, 373 00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:37,119 Speaker 3: does part of you say, man, you know what, the 374 00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:39,719 Speaker 3: truth is stranger than any fiction I could almost come 375 00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:40,120 Speaker 3: up with. 376 00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:44,240 Speaker 5: Yeah, for the past eight years, that had certainly come 377 00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:46,199 Speaker 5: to be true. If you'd written some of this stuff 378 00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:49,200 Speaker 5: back before twenty sixteen, people would have put you in 379 00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:51,399 Speaker 5: the science fiction category, wouldn't have believed that you couldn't 380 00:22:51,400 --> 00:22:53,240 Speaker 5: have carried all your readers along with a lot of 381 00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:55,439 Speaker 5: the things that have happened both in domestic politics here 382 00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:57,800 Speaker 5: in the United States and around the world. But this 383 00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:01,159 Speaker 5: pager operation follow on a sack through another communication device, 384 00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:06,280 Speaker 5: absolutely remarkable, will be studied for decades, probably centuries to come, 385 00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:10,960 Speaker 5: and really highlights just the reach of Israeli intelligence services 386 00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:13,840 Speaker 5: if it is them. Of course they have not claimed 387 00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:16,920 Speaker 5: responsibility for it, but it's what we call an upstream disruption, 388 00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:20,159 Speaker 5: meaning you're messing with something before it gets into the 389 00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:23,520 Speaker 5: hands of the enemy, and in this case, it either 390 00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:26,639 Speaker 5: means that they got into these things somehow somewhere in 391 00:23:26,680 --> 00:23:29,359 Speaker 5: the ply chain disrupted as supply chain, or years and 392 00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:31,639 Speaker 5: years and years ago they created some sort of a 393 00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:34,520 Speaker 5: company that would allow them to do this and choose 394 00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:38,320 Speaker 5: the time and the place to detonate, so absolutely remarkable 395 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:40,199 Speaker 5: and force the end back in nineteen ninety six, back 396 00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:42,280 Speaker 5: when you carried it around a very large cell phone, and 397 00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:43,720 Speaker 5: when it broke, you took it into a place to 398 00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:46,760 Speaker 5: get repaired. And they took out a Hamas bomber and 399 00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:49,080 Speaker 5: it was the engineer. It took him out nineteen ninety six, 400 00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:51,720 Speaker 5: gave him a colleague, put that to his ear and 401 00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:54,680 Speaker 5: took his head off. Jack. 402 00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:59,399 Speaker 1: There's going to be a lot of analysis and thinking 403 00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:04,920 Speaker 1: over the week and on what comes next, whether Nosraala 404 00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:08,080 Speaker 1: is dead or not. I think the confirmation that they 405 00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:12,159 Speaker 1: were going for him and Nosrala is effectively ahead of 406 00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:15,880 Speaker 1: state in Lebanon, meaning he runs the country, whether they 407 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:18,920 Speaker 1: you know, whatever his title may be, he's the most 408 00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:21,480 Speaker 1: powerful figure in that country and has been for some time. 409 00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:21,760 Speaker 4: Now. 410 00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:27,520 Speaker 1: Do you see this as likely spiraling into something bigger? 411 00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:30,000 Speaker 1: I mean, this is always the concern we talk about 412 00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:33,280 Speaker 1: this particular conflict in the Middle East, involving all of 413 00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:36,520 Speaker 1: the enemies of Israel, or do you think that Israel 414 00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:40,880 Speaker 1: is essentially letting its enemies know, whatever you think you're 415 00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:43,399 Speaker 1: going to do, we will make it so that the 416 00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:45,879 Speaker 1: cost is so high not worth it for you. 417 00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:50,199 Speaker 5: That's the real question, especially when it comes to a 418 00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:53,000 Speaker 5: model that was already in place, particularly with hostages, in 419 00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:56,320 Speaker 5: that Israel would trade quite a few over a thousand 420 00:24:56,400 --> 00:25:01,240 Speaker 5: prisoners that they had for one Israeli soldier, and that 421 00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:04,960 Speaker 5: happened back in twenty eleven that released Sinwar, who of 422 00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:08,080 Speaker 5: course is the head of Hamas in Gaza, along with 423 00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:12,280 Speaker 5: over one thousand other terrorists. So that's the real, real question, 424 00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:15,160 Speaker 5: the ethical and moral side of it versus the logical 425 00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:18,000 Speaker 5: side of it. To reset these rules, reset some of 426 00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:21,560 Speaker 5: these paradigms that the enemy ran through, has blood through 427 00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:24,399 Speaker 5: Hamas through other proxies have been playing by since the 428 00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:27,639 Speaker 5: since the early eighties. But it's definitely the signals a 429 00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:30,760 Speaker 5: shift in that there was, as horrible as it is 430 00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:34,040 Speaker 5: to say, an acceptable level of violence on both sides. 431 00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:36,200 Speaker 5: Meaning if a certain number of Israelis were killed, a 432 00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:40,119 Speaker 5: certain number of people in Gazo, West Bank or in 433 00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:44,040 Speaker 5: Lebanon were killed. There was a there was an acceptable 434 00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:47,840 Speaker 5: level that wouldn't necessitate an invasion by either side or 435 00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:50,560 Speaker 5: an escalation of the conflict into the larger regional war, 436 00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:52,919 Speaker 5: and I think that has shifted and Israel sent that 437 00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:56,119 Speaker 5: message with pagers with the walkie talkies. There's another operation 438 00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:58,320 Speaker 5: that happened almost three weeks ago, but they conducted a 439 00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:01,680 Speaker 5: special Operations mission into Syria. I think they killed eighteen people, 440 00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:05,600 Speaker 5: dozens wounded. They were hitting a scientific research center in Syria, 441 00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:08,600 Speaker 5: captured two to four. I don't have exact reporting, but 442 00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:11,720 Speaker 5: two to four Iranians were captured from that site and 443 00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:13,600 Speaker 5: they tried to vombit from the air as also a 444 00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:16,840 Speaker 5: precision gathered munitions factory, but they couldn't get deep enough 445 00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:19,919 Speaker 5: with the bomb's missiles to do damage to the actual 446 00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:23,159 Speaker 5: facility undergrounds. Though special operations forces go in blow it 447 00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:25,399 Speaker 5: up from the inside. But what was interesting about this 448 00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:28,200 Speaker 5: is that they used drones as a blocking force. Where 449 00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:31,960 Speaker 5: we would use rangers to block any reactionary forces coming 450 00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:35,359 Speaker 5: in from the outside, they used drones to do that 451 00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:38,560 Speaker 5: in a highly successful special operations mission. So with all 452 00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:40,800 Speaker 5: of these things and now targeting and Israala, the other 453 00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:45,680 Speaker 5: attacks that they set in motion into Lebanon over the 454 00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:49,760 Speaker 5: past few days. I think they're signaling a shift in 455 00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:53,399 Speaker 5: what was once an acceptable level of violence to both sides. 456 00:26:54,359 --> 00:26:55,280 Speaker 2: Breaking news. 457 00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:59,680 Speaker 3: By the way, British nationals in Lebanon should leave now, 458 00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:03,720 Speaker 3: you should take the next available flight. We're working to 459 00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:08,080 Speaker 3: increase capacity and secure seats for British nationals to leave. 460 00:27:08,680 --> 00:27:12,080 Speaker 3: That is the government of England telling everybody in that 461 00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:15,200 Speaker 3: country to get out. That is a sign that things 462 00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:16,720 Speaker 3: are going to get really rough. 463 00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:17,720 Speaker 2: Jack. 464 00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:21,679 Speaker 3: I'm curious this is your first nonfiction book. You've had 465 00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:26,000 Speaker 3: incredible success writing fiction, and again the book is targeted 466 00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:29,679 Speaker 3: Beirut nineteen eighty three Marine Barracks bombing, the untold origin 467 00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:32,920 Speaker 3: story of the War on Terror. How was it different 468 00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:37,400 Speaker 3: to write fiction versus nonfiction? Which did you prefer? Did 469 00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:39,640 Speaker 3: they feel different to you? Did you have to work 470 00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:43,240 Speaker 3: different muscles to tell this story compared to the stories 471 00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:44,200 Speaker 3: that you've told before. 472 00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:47,800 Speaker 5: You definitely feel a heavy year weight with this meaning 473 00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:50,200 Speaker 5: in the fiction in the thriller is the James Rees series. 474 00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:51,560 Speaker 5: If I get something wrong, because I do leave a 475 00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:54,679 Speaker 5: lot of history into those thrillers, but if I get 476 00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:57,800 Speaker 5: something wrong. I can just say, hey, it's fiction. You 477 00:27:57,840 --> 00:28:00,320 Speaker 5: don't have that luxury. You can't do that has to 478 00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:03,520 Speaker 5: be right. There are people still alive who responded to 479 00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:05,639 Speaker 5: this bombing who're digging their buddies out of that rubble 480 00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:09,800 Speaker 5: with their bare hand, kbar, knives, shovel, maybe pro bar 481 00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:12,000 Speaker 5: if they can find one. There are people that dug 482 00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:14,879 Speaker 5: themselves up out of that rubble that day. There are 483 00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:17,399 Speaker 5: family members who've had an empty seat at the dinner 484 00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:20,600 Speaker 5: table ever since October twenty third of nineteen eighty three. 485 00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:24,560 Speaker 5: I talked to as many of them as I possibly could, 486 00:28:24,600 --> 00:28:27,840 Speaker 5: over a thousand letters that people had sent home, audio 487 00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:30,159 Speaker 5: tapes that they'd sent home, recordings of their voice, so 488 00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:32,240 Speaker 5: you could really get to know these people who are 489 00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:35,560 Speaker 5: on the ground there to humanize this. So you owe 490 00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:38,800 Speaker 5: it to them to be as thoughtful, as respectful as 491 00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:41,840 Speaker 5: you possibly can, and to really get it right. You 492 00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:44,480 Speaker 5: have to. There's no leeway. So I'd say there is 493 00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:48,760 Speaker 5: a lot more, a lot more weight on your shoulders 494 00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:51,040 Speaker 5: when you're doing the nonfiction side of the house than 495 00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:53,200 Speaker 5: when you're doing the fiction side of the house, just 496 00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:55,880 Speaker 5: out of respect for those who lived through this bombing 497 00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:56,760 Speaker 5: and those who did not. 498 00:28:57,800 --> 00:29:00,680 Speaker 3: Well, Jack, we appreciate the time your book. The Terminal 499 00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:04,360 Speaker 3: List have been amazing that entire series, and we encourage 500 00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:07,400 Speaker 3: people to check out this first nonfiction book, targeted bea Root, 501 00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:10,840 Speaker 3: the eighty three story of that attack and the origin 502 00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:13,320 Speaker 3: of the war on Terror.

But consensual 599 00:33:58,160 --> 00:33:58,720 Speaker 4: adults do. 600 00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:01,800 Speaker 5: You know. We we can't get to puritanical in this 601 00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:04,080 Speaker 5: country to think that somehow sex is a bad thing, 602 00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:06,000 Speaker 5: because if it was, if you no more. 603 00:34:05,880 --> 00:34:12,040 Speaker 1: People, Clay, Yeah, that's the lawyer being a slippery fellow. 604 00:34:12,640 --> 00:34:15,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, well said thank you and Costco. 605 00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:21,440 Speaker 1: According to the Twitter account Unusual Wales, Costco has responded 606 00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:23,920 Speaker 1: to the Sean diddy Combe story and said none of 607 00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:30,040 Speaker 1: the company's US locations carry baby oil, so basically, don't 608 00:34:30,040 --> 00:34:33,759 Speaker 1: try to bring Costco into this mess. Okay, you got 609 00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:36,520 Speaker 1: to explain the thousand bottles of baby oil to the jury. 610 00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:40,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, that is really funny that Costco felt compelled to 611 00:34:40,840 --> 00:34:46,279 Speaker 3: weigh in. I also love aggressive lawyering. Look, when you're 612 00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:49,360 Speaker 3: an advocate, sometimes you got a tough client. People like 613 00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:51,680 Speaker 3: to say being a lawyer would be great if you 614 00:34:51,719 --> 00:34:55,200 Speaker 3: could eliminate the clients. I don't know what p didd 615 00:34:55,200 --> 00:34:57,240 Speaker 3: he's paying this guy. I'm sure it's a lot of money. 616 00:34:57,560 --> 00:35:00,239 Speaker 3: They say that they want to trial rapidly, but the 617 00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:02,919 Speaker 3: fact that he's now there with SBF. They did let 618 00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:06,640 Speaker 3: Mayor Eric Adams off without any charges being brought, I mean, 619 00:35:06,640 --> 00:35:08,839 Speaker 3: without any bail being required, and he got to keep 620 00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:12,440 Speaker 3: his passport is my understanding. But New York City's a mess. 621 00:35:12,560 --> 00:35:16,960 Speaker 3: And remember we just barely avoided. Trump was scheduled for 622 00:35:17,080 --> 00:35:22,120 Speaker 3: sentencing on September eighteenth, So this thing just passed by 623 00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:27,760 Speaker 3: the skin of his teeth that he avoided potentially getting 624 00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:32,560 Speaker 3: sentenced as well for this crazy, ridiculous state charges city 625 00:35:32,680 --> 00:35:34,520 Speaker 3: charges they brought in a New York state law. So 626 00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:38,520 Speaker 3: all of this adding up together is just bonkers. And 627 00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:41,040 Speaker 3: we were just talking with Jack Carr, who's got wildly 628 00:35:41,080 --> 00:35:45,719 Speaker 3: successful terminal List series. But Buck, the amount of craziness 629 00:35:45,760 --> 00:35:48,359 Speaker 3: that happens every single day that you and I end 630 00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:52,080 Speaker 3: up talking about is almost impossible to predict. And by 631 00:35:52,120 --> 00:35:55,319 Speaker 3: the time we come back on Monday, we will be 632 00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:59,000 Speaker 3: thirty six days away from the election, and we will 633 00:35:59,080 --> 00:36:01,040 Speaker 3: enter October and it will be less than a month 634 00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:03,200 Speaker 3: and a lot of you are already voting across the nation. 635 00:36:04,600 --> 00:36:07,200 Speaker 3: I mean, what could an October surprise even be at 636 00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:10,080 Speaker 3: this point to be worthy of the name for Cobra 637 00:36:10,120 --> 00:36:13,000 Speaker 3: surprise given what we have seen. I knowed you you 638 00:36:13,040 --> 00:36:14,959 Speaker 3: almost don't want to think about it because it would 639 00:36:15,000 --> 00:36:18,360 Speaker 3: have to be like so crazy. But we have had 640 00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:23,880 Speaker 3: the most tumultuous election cycle already I can remember. Nothing 641 00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:27,840 Speaker 3: has been a candidate dropping out, two assassination attempts, a 642 00:36:27,880 --> 00:36:30,960 Speaker 3: former president getting shot, and we have seen nothing as 643 00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:33,960 Speaker 3: crazy as this. And we're entering the final stretch here 644 00:36:34,560 --> 00:36:37,600 Speaker 3: and a person who didn't get a single vote as 645 00:36:37,680 --> 00:36:40,080 Speaker 3: a nominee of a major party to try to be 646 00:36:40,120 --> 00:36:43,359 Speaker 3: elected presidents crazy. I will be in Tusca, Lusa, Buck, 647 00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:47,080 Speaker 3: you have been there before. It should be phenomenal. Georgia, Alabama. 648 00:36:47,480 --> 00:36:49,520 Speaker 3: Donald Trump will be with me, and we're gonna be 649 00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:52,120 Speaker 3: with Donald Trump on this show soon.
