WEBVTT - Inside The Collapse of Iran’s War Machine 0:00:00.320 --> 0:00:02.600 An hour two Sean Hannity Show, toll free. 0:00:02.600 --> 0:00:04.600 It's eight hundred and ninefold when Shawn, you want to 0:00:04.600 --> 0:00:05.520 be a part of the program. 0:00:05.559 --> 0:00:08.000 This Friday hard to believe. 0:00:08.280 --> 0:00:12.399 I mean, I've been so immersed in every aspect of 0:00:12.680 --> 0:00:20.239 this war against Iran, you know, starting on on Friday night. 0:00:20.400 --> 0:00:23.200 I was awake when this began, and I didn't go 0:00:23.239 --> 0:00:27.200 to sleep, and I was up texting everybody, my friends 0:00:27.320 --> 0:00:32.919 and senators and congressmen and people in the administration, anybody 0:00:32.920 --> 0:00:36.400 that would take my text. And I didn't go to 0:00:36.520 --> 0:00:39.760 bed until noon that day. Called into Fox and Friends 0:00:39.800 --> 0:00:44.199 Saturday morning about six thirty in the morning, and it 0:00:44.360 --> 0:00:49.760 was just that spectacular. And it has been an incredible success, 0:00:49.800 --> 0:00:53.560 beyond any any belief I thought we could have. I 0:00:53.680 --> 0:00:56.800 knew this would be a tough operation. I was nervous, 0:00:57.040 --> 0:01:00.520 you know, in the lead up to this, because you 0:01:00.680 --> 0:01:03.840 just don't know, there's an unknown factor, especially with the 0:01:03.880 --> 0:01:08.840 regime is insane as the Iranium regime. And then when 0:01:08.840 --> 0:01:13.000 we got the news that the Supreme Leader and you know, 0:01:13.120 --> 0:01:16.679 forty plus others were taken out in the first thirty 0:01:16.720 --> 0:01:20.880 seconds of this engagement in the special council designed to 0:01:20.920 --> 0:01:23.839 pick the next generation of leadership, eighty some odd people. 0:01:23.880 --> 0:01:27.000 In that case, they were wiped out. I mean now 0:01:27.000 --> 0:01:30.760 we're down to, you know, some guy who is now 0:01:30.800 --> 0:01:34.759 the new Iranian foreign minister that nobody's heard of, saying 0:01:34.800 --> 0:01:37.839 that they're ready for for ground troops if they attack. 0:01:37.959 --> 0:01:40.880 By the way, President Trump's been pretty clear, not going 0:01:40.959 --> 0:01:43.600 to be a ground war. They don't need to put 0:01:43.640 --> 0:01:47.840 boots on the ground anyway. Here's the new nobody knows 0:01:47.840 --> 0:01:50.080 who the hell he is Iranian Foreign minister. 0:01:50.360 --> 0:01:53.280 President Trump has not ruled out boots on the ground 0:01:53.400 --> 0:01:53.960 in Iran. 0:01:54.400 --> 0:01:57.480 Are you afraid of a US invasion in your country? 0:01:57.640 --> 0:02:00.240 No, the adventing for them. You were waiting for the 0:02:00.320 --> 0:02:04.520 US military to invade the ground troops, Yes, because we 0:02:04.600 --> 0:02:07.360 are confident that we can confront them and that would 0:02:07.400 --> 0:02:09.000 be a big disaster for them. 0:02:09.280 --> 0:02:11.919 So you're saying that that Iran is ready and willing 0:02:11.919 --> 0:02:13.960 to take on the US military if there were to 0:02:13.960 --> 0:02:14.720 be ground troops. 0:02:15.160 --> 0:02:19.400 Well, be ready for this war even more than the 0:02:19.480 --> 0:02:22.960 previous war. So you can see, you know the quality 0:02:23.080 --> 0:02:26.080 of our missiles, how much they are upgraded after the 0:02:26.320 --> 0:02:28.920 last war, because we learned lots of lessons and we 0:02:28.960 --> 0:02:33.239 are prepared for any other eventuality, even you know, a 0:02:33.360 --> 0:02:34.280 ground invasion. 0:02:34.480 --> 0:02:35.560 Pretty spectacular. 0:02:35.639 --> 0:02:38.040 Now, I got to give a lot of props to 0:02:38.080 --> 0:02:41.560 the US military or Commander in Chief, are the chairman 0:02:41.639 --> 0:02:45.440 of the Joint chiefs of Staff? You know, raising Kine 0:02:45.480 --> 0:02:49.920 is unbelievable. Another person that is I really admire is 0:02:50.000 --> 0:02:56.919 Admiral Brad Cooper sayingcom Commander, he's detailing here. The destroyed 0:02:56.919 --> 0:03:00.400 the Ranian ships. Yeah, we've destroyed pretty mu to all 0:03:00.400 --> 0:03:02.600 of them. It was funny last night there was a 0:03:02.680 --> 0:03:05.880 story about one ship that somehow made it to the 0:03:05.919 --> 0:03:10.040 shores or close to the shores of Sri Lanka, and 0:03:10.080 --> 0:03:13.320 the Iranians on that ship started jumping off the ship 0:03:13.360 --> 0:03:14.680 and saying, you can keep the ship. 0:03:14.720 --> 0:03:15.400 We're out of here. 0:03:16.080 --> 0:03:19.359 Just let us just give us a place to stay, 0:03:20.720 --> 0:03:23.280 which was pretty funny. But here's Admiral Brad Cooper. 0:03:23.639 --> 0:03:27.000 Our strikes against the Iranian navy have intensified. You may 0:03:27.040 --> 0:03:29.760 have heard the President say just a little while ago 0:03:29.800 --> 0:03:32.520 that we have sunk or destroyed twenty four ships. 0:03:32.600 --> 0:03:33.040 That was true. 0:03:33.040 --> 0:03:36.400 At the moment, we're now up over thirty ships, and 0:03:36.480 --> 0:03:38.920 in just the last few hours we hit an Iranian 0:03:39.080 --> 0:03:42.240 drone carrier ship roughly the size of a World War 0:03:42.280 --> 0:03:45.520 Two aircraft carrier, and as we speak, it's on fire. 0:03:45.800 --> 0:03:48.720 And then the president himself calling on Iranian soldiers to 0:03:48.800 --> 0:03:52.480 lay down their arms. And according to some reports, now 0:03:53.000 --> 0:03:56.320 I'm not being able to confirm it myself, but there 0:03:56.320 --> 0:03:59.280 are a lot of reports that the Iranian Revolutionary Guard 0:04:00.200 --> 0:04:03.080 laying down their arms. Local police departments are laying down 0:04:03.080 --> 0:04:06.000 their arms, and that they want no part of what 0:04:06.160 --> 0:04:09.160 is likely to calm. The President offered them immunity if 0:04:09.200 --> 0:04:13.080 they did so immediately, otherwise they would face certain death. 0:04:13.240 --> 0:04:16.159 But here's the president calling on those soldiers to lay 0:04:16.200 --> 0:04:17.320 down their arms. 0:04:17.200 --> 0:04:20.159 And once again calling on all members of the Iranian 0:04:20.240 --> 0:04:23.560 Revolutionary Guard, the military, and the police to lay down 0:04:24.160 --> 0:04:26.520 their arms. They're only going to be killed. And now 0:04:26.640 --> 0:04:29.000 is the time to stand up for the Iranian people 0:04:29.000 --> 0:04:32.040 and help take back your country. You're going to have 0:04:32.080 --> 0:04:35.880 a chance, after all these years to take back your country. 0:04:35.880 --> 0:04:40.799 Except immunity. We'll give you immunity and will be giving 0:04:40.839 --> 0:04:42.919 you really the right side of history, because that's what 0:04:43.000 --> 0:04:47.960 it is. So you'll be perfectly safe with total immunity, 0:04:48.040 --> 0:04:51.960 or you'll face absolutely guaranteed death. And I don't want 0:04:52.000 --> 0:04:53.080 to see that one of. 0:04:53.120 --> 0:04:56.479 The most disappointing. If not, it's not surprising to me. 0:04:56.640 --> 0:05:00.640 We have been pointing out the utter decline of Europe 0:05:00.640 --> 0:05:03.279 and chronicling it on this program now for some time. 0:05:04.680 --> 0:05:10.080 But the first initial reaction of the Prime Minister of 0:05:10.480 --> 0:05:15.080 Great Britain, Kirs Starmer, it was pathetic, and the same 0:05:15.120 --> 0:05:19.040 with French President Macrone, it was pathetic, and the leader 0:05:19.080 --> 0:05:22.520 of Spain pathetic. And these are supposed to be our allies. 0:05:22.560 --> 0:05:28.880 But Europe has been experiencing massive, really a massive precipitous decline. 0:05:28.920 --> 0:05:32.640 They have given up, you know, really, you know, standing 0:05:32.720 --> 0:05:36.640 strong and putting a commitment towards national security and defense 0:05:36.680 --> 0:05:39.600 of their own countries and their own continent. 0:05:39.760 --> 0:05:41.159 They have not done a good job. 0:05:41.800 --> 0:05:44.279 They were, you know, hemming and hawing when Donald Trump 0:05:44.320 --> 0:05:47.440 insisted they more than double their contribution to NATO, but 0:05:47.600 --> 0:05:51.000 he got them to do it. And of course they 0:05:51.000 --> 0:05:53.599 don't understand the nature of evil in our time. I 0:05:53.640 --> 0:05:57.640 never thought on our lifetime that that Great Britain would 0:05:57.640 --> 0:06:00.560 ever end up with eighty five or eighty seven shary courts, 0:06:00.600 --> 0:06:03.120 but it's real. I didn't think there'd be no go 0:06:03.360 --> 0:06:08.080 zones where you know, the Islamic community that immigrated from 0:06:08.120 --> 0:06:12.720 other countries would say that local police and fire departments 0:06:12.720 --> 0:06:16.240 are not allowed in their community and that they separate themselves. 0:06:16.279 --> 0:06:20.200 In other words, you have unfettered immigration without assimilation, and 0:06:20.200 --> 0:06:24.040 they've adopted climate alarmism pretty much all across the continent, 0:06:24.360 --> 0:06:28.000 along with radical socialism. It is a continent that is 0:06:28.000 --> 0:06:29.520 in a precipitous decline. 0:06:30.040 --> 0:06:30.400 Anyway. 0:06:30.480 --> 0:06:33.320 Joining us now to discuss all of this, the Vice 0:06:33.440 --> 0:06:40.200 Admiral Robert Hayward of the US Navy, also Kevin Hermiting, 0:06:40.400 --> 0:06:43.080 is with us a marine by the way, hel Campta. 0:06:43.120 --> 0:06:45.400 Four hundred and forty four days. He's back with us, Kevin. 0:06:45.400 --> 0:06:47.520 It's great to have you back, Vice Admiral, great to 0:06:47.560 --> 0:06:49.360 have you back. Thank you for being with us. 0:06:50.640 --> 0:06:52.200 Kevin. You were there in the beginning. 0:06:52.560 --> 0:06:55.120 I mean, this is when the Ayatola came out of 0:06:55.640 --> 0:06:59.840 exile in France and the revolution began in nineteen seventy nine, 0:07:00.040 --> 0:07:02.240 and you spent four d and forty four days as 0:07:02.279 --> 0:07:05.200 a captive. How horrible was that point in your life? 0:07:05.320 --> 0:07:07.520 Well, it wasn't easy, but I have to say some 0:07:07.560 --> 0:07:11.560 of my colleagues really endured some severe treatment. I think 0:07:11.600 --> 0:07:15.840 about our CIA station chiefs there hundred and twenty five 0:07:15.920 --> 0:07:19.600 days Sean in solitary confinement, just you know, worrying every 0:07:19.640 --> 0:07:21.520 day about his family and was he the only one 0:07:21.640 --> 0:07:24.520 left behind? And of course that was before the days 0:07:24.520 --> 0:07:28.200 when we learned later that men like William Buckley were 0:07:28.720 --> 0:07:31.600 tortured and killed by the same regime. I think about 0:07:31.880 --> 0:07:35.600 Colonel Charles Scott, who has beaten severely with rubber hoses 0:07:35.680 --> 0:07:39.200 during his first days of interrogations and having his teeth 0:07:39.240 --> 0:07:43.320 busted off. And we can't forget although they weren't ever 0:07:43.360 --> 0:07:46.960 held hostage, but let's face it, three Marines and five 0:07:47.040 --> 0:07:51.240 airmen hofully gave their lives in Operation Eagle Clock trying 0:07:51.280 --> 0:07:54.080 to rescue us. That wouldn't have had to happen if 0:07:54.120 --> 0:07:56.440 they hadn't captured the embassy and held us either. 0:07:58.160 --> 0:08:04.640 Well, let me ask you, Admiral Robert Harward, thank you 0:08:04.680 --> 0:08:08.560 for your service number one. Number two. I don't think 0:08:09.040 --> 0:08:11.520 I don't think I've ever been more proud of our military. 0:08:11.680 --> 0:08:17.160 I mean, the level of intelligence gathering, the sophisticated precision 0:08:17.240 --> 0:08:21.160 of our military might has never been on better display 0:08:21.240 --> 0:08:25.080 than it has been here. And I'm very grateful to 0:08:25.120 --> 0:08:28.640 all of those people that understand for future generation's sake 0:08:29.120 --> 0:08:33.319 that we can't have radical islamis partnered with weapons of 0:08:33.360 --> 0:08:36.680 mass destruction that they pledged to use to destroy the 0:08:36.840 --> 0:08:37.800 US and Israel. 0:08:38.520 --> 0:08:41.520 Well, let me start first off by recognizing Kevin that 0:08:41.840 --> 0:08:45.720 you know what he went through. It epitomizes service. So 0:08:45.920 --> 0:08:47.400 just always thank. 0:08:47.240 --> 0:08:47.440 You for. 0:08:49.160 --> 0:08:51.040 I mean, it's got to be hard to be a 0:08:51.080 --> 0:08:54.120 hostage for four hundred and forty four days, right, Admiral. 0:08:55.160 --> 0:08:57.520 Hell, yeah, it's got to be hard, but you know 0:08:58.240 --> 0:09:02.720 that's why people serve. Unfortunately, sometimes that happens, and you'd 0:09:02.720 --> 0:09:06.479 have to ask Kevin, but we all can help acknowledge 0:09:06.520 --> 0:09:10.400 the service he provided to this country of ours and 0:09:10.440 --> 0:09:12.880 to sacrifice these names and my hat sought to them. 0:09:12.960 --> 0:09:17.400 Number two I think most important. You're damn right, this 0:09:17.480 --> 0:09:20.000 is one of the it's not just our military, our 0:09:20.080 --> 0:09:23.560 whole government that had the courage to do this. The 0:09:23.640 --> 0:09:27.160 Secretary of Ward, the President, the Secretary of State all 0:09:27.240 --> 0:09:30.280 in support, and then you had a military that could 0:09:30.280 --> 0:09:33.640 execute this. I think what you're seeing just as proud 0:09:33.679 --> 0:09:37.280 as we are them. I think other countries are starting 0:09:37.280 --> 0:09:40.120 to realize what this means to them and the potential, 0:09:40.360 --> 0:09:44.400 and that's why you're seeing some of these political leaders change. 0:09:44.720 --> 0:09:48.960 They realize how significant, how powerful does the millions and 0:09:49.080 --> 0:09:52.240 millions of people who want to see this through. And 0:09:52.320 --> 0:09:54.400 so that's why I think you're seeing some of these 0:09:54.880 --> 0:09:57.760 shifts in their policy and their positions. 0:09:58.040 --> 0:10:00.839 Well, they have been showing nothing but the client in 0:10:00.920 --> 0:10:03.120 weakness now going on for a long time. They have 0:10:03.240 --> 0:10:06.240 not put their priority on national security and defense of 0:10:06.280 --> 0:10:09.719 their countries and their own continent, and they have been 0:10:09.720 --> 0:10:12.880 relying on the United States and even taking an advantage 0:10:12.920 --> 0:10:15.679 of US with tariffs and Donald Trump putting into that. 0:10:16.080 --> 0:10:20.239 All right, quick break more with Vice Admiral Robert Harward 0:10:20.520 --> 0:10:25.040 of the US Navy and Kevin Hermaning, a marine held 0:10:25.120 --> 0:10:28.960 hostage for foreigner in forty four days in Iran. Quick 0:10:29.000 --> 0:10:31.360 break right back on the other side. More of their comments. 0:10:31.400 --> 0:10:34.319 Your calls coming up also eight hundred and ninety four one, Shawn, 0:10:34.360 --> 0:10:38.760 as we continue, all right, we continue now with Vice 0:10:38.880 --> 0:10:42.280 Admiral Robert Harward is with US of the US Navy. 0:10:42.480 --> 0:10:45.640 Now Kevin Hermaning is a marine. He was one of 0:10:45.640 --> 0:10:48.480 the people held hostage for fourign in forty four days 0:10:48.600 --> 0:10:54.000 after the Iotola Komani came into power in nineteen seventy nine. Admiral, 0:10:54.080 --> 0:10:56.880 your background is pretty fascinating to me. You grew up 0:10:56.960 --> 0:11:01.920 in Iran, You graduated from the Tehran American School, You 0:11:02.040 --> 0:11:07.959 speak Farsi. Former Navy Seal Vice Admiral led the invasions 0:11:07.960 --> 0:11:11.200 of Afghanistan and Iraq, served as deputy commander of US 0:11:11.240 --> 0:11:16.200 Central Command and helped stand up start up the National 0:11:16.280 --> 0:11:19.559 counter Terrorism Center, and you were asked by the President 0:11:19.720 --> 0:11:23.600 to serve as the National Security Advisor. I mean your 0:11:24.080 --> 0:11:26.839 background in life experience is one to envy. 0:11:27.280 --> 0:11:29.240 Well, I don't know about any of that, but I 0:11:29.280 --> 0:11:32.680 will tell you, along with Kevin, we've seen this thing 0:11:32.800 --> 0:11:36.560 from that Sirian inception, and like Kevin, we were there 0:11:36.600 --> 0:11:40.280 before and realized what an amazing country and the people 0:11:40.360 --> 0:11:45.080 of Iran are, So we understand exactly why this is 0:11:45.120 --> 0:11:50.440 so important and how incredible this event is. And again 0:11:50.600 --> 0:11:53.760 because we had the political courage and strength to do 0:11:53.840 --> 0:11:57.720 that and then our militaries could execute this is what 0:11:58.920 --> 0:12:04.480 services and just leadership. So it's good to really see 0:12:04.520 --> 0:12:07.120 how this plays out. But there's no doubt about it. 0:12:07.400 --> 0:12:10.480 This thing is not done until the regime is gone. 0:12:10.800 --> 0:12:14.199 And I think everyone realizes that, not just in the US, 0:12:14.240 --> 0:12:17.280 but in our European leaders, because then you bring a 0:12:17.400 --> 0:12:21.240 change of government is accountable to its people and can 0:12:21.280 --> 0:12:24.800 work peacefully with its neighbors and partners in the region. 0:12:25.040 --> 0:12:27.720 You know, Kevin, as I look at your story being 0:12:27.720 --> 0:12:32.000 held four hundred and forty four days hostage. You, by 0:12:32.040 --> 0:12:35.560 the way, you continued in the military. You completed thirteen 0:12:35.640 --> 0:12:39.280 years in the Marine Corps Simprificor. You got multiple honors, 0:12:39.320 --> 0:12:43.680 including the Prisoner of War Medal, the Defense Notorious Service Medal, 0:12:43.720 --> 0:12:47.880 the US State Department Award for Valor. But you're only 0:12:47.920 --> 0:12:51.679 twenty years old and the youngest of the four hundred 0:12:51.679 --> 0:12:55.680 and forty four held hostage. Not an easy moment for 0:12:55.720 --> 0:12:56.720 a twenty year old kid. 0:12:56.960 --> 0:13:01.679 Well, Sean, thank you for that. But seriously, we were 0:13:01.720 --> 0:13:04.800 just doing our jobs, right, Marine Security Guards that our 0:13:04.840 --> 0:13:09.440 embassies have a unique responsibility. Yes, we are working for 0:13:09.520 --> 0:13:12.839 the Department of Defense, but our job is to minimize 0:13:12.920 --> 0:13:16.800 chaos abroad. Right. We're in a diplomatic mission, which means 0:13:16.840 --> 0:13:20.160 we are responsible for following the direction the orders of 0:13:20.160 --> 0:13:25.040 our ambassadors. Bruce Langen had sent cables back to the 0:13:25.080 --> 0:13:28.440 State Department. They were ignored by Cyrus Vance, our Secretary 0:13:28.440 --> 0:13:30.280 of State. And I don't know about the President, maybe 0:13:30.320 --> 0:13:32.760 I never even saw them, but he said, listen, if 0:13:32.800 --> 0:13:35.680 you let the Shaw of Iran into the country, into 0:13:35.720 --> 0:13:38.480 the United States, that the embassy could come under siege, 0:13:38.520 --> 0:13:41.520 Americans could be held hostage. Those were the exact language 0:13:41.679 --> 0:13:45.400 that was in that were in those cables. And I'm 0:13:45.400 --> 0:13:47.960 not suggesting we shouldn't have let our longtime ally the 0:13:48.000 --> 0:13:50.640 Shaw into the United States, but perhaps we should have 0:13:50.679 --> 0:13:53.440 downsized or closed our embassy for a time period to 0:13:53.480 --> 0:13:59.720 see the repercussions that might have resulted. Nonetheless, I always 0:13:59.760 --> 0:14:04.480 do I remind the listeners the audiences before which I 0:14:04.559 --> 0:14:08.640 speak occasionally of those men who died in the desert 0:14:08.720 --> 0:14:12.360 and my fellow captives, because you know, four under and 0:14:12.400 --> 0:14:16.520 twenty five days in solitary confinement for Tom Ahern was 0:14:16.600 --> 0:14:19.400 just horrendous. I mean for me forty three days after 0:14:19.440 --> 0:14:22.000 a failed escape attempt was nothing as a result. But 0:14:22.840 --> 0:14:24.680 just to be able to do that, and I think 0:14:24.680 --> 0:14:27.480 also the younger you are, the easier it is. And 0:14:26.920 --> 0:14:30.120 I'll never forget getting down on my knees in solitary 0:14:30.160 --> 0:14:33.120 confinement just praying and asking God to deliver me from 0:14:33.120 --> 0:14:37.520 those days. Right, just you have no idea, but many 0:14:37.560 --> 0:14:39.920 of my colleagues had much worse treatment than I did. 0:14:41.080 --> 0:14:44.160 Well, thank god everyone got out. It happened on the 0:14:44.280 --> 0:14:48.480 day that Ronald Wilson Reagan became the president of our 0:14:48.520 --> 0:14:53.480 country January twentieth, nineteen eighty one, A day we'll never forget. 0:14:54.360 --> 0:14:57.080 Can't thank you both. I admire both of you. Kevin, 0:14:57.120 --> 0:15:00.040 thank you, Admiral, thank you. We appreciate it time. I 0:15:00.200 --> 0:15:02.040 thank you for being on the program today. And God 0:15:02.080 --> 0:15:05.080 bless both your view and your families. And we really 0:15:05.160 --> 0:15:06.200 appreciate both of you. 0:15:06.640 --> 0:15:07.040 Thank you. 0:15:07.880 --> 0:15:08.200 Well. 0:15:08.400 --> 0:15:10.440 Just when you think it can't get any worse. For 0:15:11.680 --> 0:15:19.480 Zoron Moron Marxist Tommi Mamdani, it did. Apparently his wife 0:15:20.480 --> 0:15:26.640 liked social media posts that was celebrating amasa's October seventh 0:15:26.800 --> 0:15:31.520 massacre of Israelis. Remember their population well under ten million. 0:15:32.160 --> 0:15:35.720 So that's the equivalent of losing forty thousand Americans in 0:15:35.760 --> 0:15:39.840 a day. If America lost forty thousand Americans in a day, 0:15:40.080 --> 0:15:44.200 what would you want your government to do? Maybe obliterate 0:15:44.320 --> 0:15:47.360 the people that killed your fellow citizens, That's what I'd 0:15:47.400 --> 0:15:50.160 want them to do. I don't hide that fact, very 0:15:50.200 --> 0:15:52.880 open about it. Look at how we reacted after nine 0:15:52.920 --> 0:15:56.160 to eleven, two thousand and one. We lost two nine 0:15:56.200 --> 0:16:00.480 hundred and seventy seven Americans that day. Anyway, so Zoron 0:16:00.800 --> 0:16:05.880 Marxist Kami Mum Donnie's wife, according to Foxnews dot Com, 0:16:05.920 --> 0:16:11.000 allegedly like several posts on social media quote cheering on 0:16:11.280 --> 0:16:16.320 Hamas on October seventh, and with the October seventh massacre 0:16:16.360 --> 0:16:20.960 of Israelis, remember there was there was murder and kidnappings 0:16:21.640 --> 0:16:26.080 and beheadings and rape that all took place, and these 0:16:26.160 --> 0:16:28.960 terrorists they took videos of it. And I happened to 0:16:29.000 --> 0:16:30.840 be one of the few people the idea f would 0:16:30.840 --> 0:16:33.600 show people in the media so they could report accurately 0:16:33.760 --> 0:16:36.800 on it. And there were many of my colleagues at 0:16:36.800 --> 0:16:39.560 Fox that looked at it and they had to leave 0:16:39.760 --> 0:16:41.840 in the middle of it because it was that gruesome. 0:16:42.560 --> 0:16:44.880 It's not something we can never show you on TV, 0:16:45.000 --> 0:16:48.160 because you just can't. These are not images you'll ever 0:16:48.160 --> 0:16:51.680 get out of your mind. According to the DC based 0:16:51.680 --> 0:16:56.200 news outlet Jewish Insider, New York City mayors Zoron Marxist 0:16:56.240 --> 0:17:01.360 Kami Mumdannie spent the mayoral campaigns and seeing himself from 0:17:01.760 --> 0:17:05.919 the most radical anti Israeli elements of the leftist movement, 0:17:06.480 --> 0:17:10.080 but an examination of his wife's social media activity reveals 0:17:10.480 --> 0:17:14.199 that she liked multiple Instagram posts cheering on Hamas on 0:17:14.240 --> 0:17:17.960 October the seventh, twenty twenty three, and the posts liked 0:17:17.960 --> 0:17:25.320 by his wife Assyrian American artised unambiguously celebrating the terrorist attack, 0:17:25.440 --> 0:17:29.560 which again twelve hundred Israelis. But they have a tiny population, 0:17:30.200 --> 0:17:34.880 the very small country, I mean, unbelievable. And they even 0:17:34.960 --> 0:17:37.280 you know, they were killing children for crying out loud, 0:17:37.680 --> 0:17:42.640 and rape and murder and kidnapping, all on tape and beheadings. 0:17:43.040 --> 0:17:46.320 I got that part. It doesn't get any sicker than this. 0:17:46.480 --> 0:17:51.080 I do not understand why ninety five percent of this 0:17:51.160 --> 0:17:54.880 country does not vote against this radicalism, which is now 0:17:54.920 --> 0:17:59.320 the entire entirety of the Democratic Party. All right, let's 0:17:59.320 --> 0:18:01.679 get to our busy phones. Eight hundred and nine point one, 0:18:01.720 --> 0:18:04.520 Seawn our number if you want to be a part 0:18:04.560 --> 0:18:07.600 of the program. John in South Carolina, John, how are 0:18:07.600 --> 0:18:08.119 you happy? 0:18:08.160 --> 0:18:09.120 Friday? Glad you called? 0:18:09.840 --> 0:18:10.240 I'm good? 0:18:10.240 --> 0:18:10.480 Sean? 0:18:10.520 --> 0:18:10.879 How are you? 0:18:11.800 --> 0:18:12.560 I'm good? Sir? 0:18:14.160 --> 0:18:14.240 So? 0:18:15.280 --> 0:18:21.120 Is this an opportunity for Trump to squeeze the Russians 0:18:21.160 --> 0:18:26.399 and the Chinese controlling the streets of with all the 0:18:26.400 --> 0:18:28.639 oil tankers in and out of there where, that's twenty 0:18:28.640 --> 0:18:32.120 percent of the world one and I. 0:18:32.040 --> 0:18:35.280 Would imagine, And the President said that he will have 0:18:35.320 --> 0:18:37.400 a say and who takes over, just like he did 0:18:37.400 --> 0:18:40.879 in Venezuela, which he has to do. Otherwise, why do 0:18:41.000 --> 0:18:44.760 we spend all why do we take all this risk, 0:18:45.160 --> 0:18:47.840 Why do we send all these military assets over there? 0:18:48.320 --> 0:18:50.720 And I will predict that at the end of the day, 0:18:50.920 --> 0:18:53.760 the Iranians will be paying for their own for their 0:18:53.800 --> 0:18:58.200 own you know, salvation here in the sense that they're 0:18:58.240 --> 0:19:01.240 going to pay the price what it costs the US 0:19:01.400 --> 0:19:06.240 to liberate them. And I think that Donald Trump insisting 0:19:06.320 --> 0:19:08.760 on somebody that is going to be friendly towards America 0:19:09.800 --> 0:19:13.400 is a fair exchange for freedom, because that's what the president. 0:19:14.080 --> 0:19:17.960 We're willing to risk our national treasure, expend a massive 0:19:18.000 --> 0:19:21.320 amount of military resources, and I think they should pay 0:19:21.359 --> 0:19:22.120 for that liberation. 0:19:22.280 --> 0:19:22.520 Now. 0:19:23.000 --> 0:19:26.320 That will mean the US will absolutely have a say 0:19:26.640 --> 0:19:30.560 in their oil production, It will benefit the people of 0:19:30.600 --> 0:19:34.160 Iran financially, and it will pay back to the United 0:19:34.200 --> 0:19:37.359 States for the massive billions and billions of dollars that 0:19:37.400 --> 0:19:41.280 we've had to spend for their freedom. They asked for 0:19:41.320 --> 0:19:43.959 our help, they got it, and now that we've been 0:19:44.040 --> 0:19:47.480 successful and that we will be successful, they can pay 0:19:47.560 --> 0:19:50.240 us back for that, and I think that's only fair. Yeah, 0:19:50.520 --> 0:19:53.760 I agree, all right, my friend, appreciate you. Eight hundred 0:19:53.800 --> 0:19:56.480 and nine point one Shawn our number Wayne in Louisiana. 0:19:56.560 --> 0:19:58.399 Next Sean Hennity Show. What's up, Wayne? 0:19:58.440 --> 0:20:02.000 How are you doing great? How you doing, mister Hannity? 0:20:02.680 --> 0:20:04.000 I'm good, sir. What's going on? 0:20:04.880 --> 0:20:05.320 Oh man? 0:20:05.359 --> 0:20:08.320 I'm just calling from the great state of Louisiana, the 0:20:08.320 --> 0:20:12.720 home of Sarah Kennedy and Steiscally. So yeah, sir, definitely, Yeah. 0:20:12.760 --> 0:20:15.480 I just wanted to thank you for your service to 0:20:15.520 --> 0:20:18.240 the country and for the time you came to help 0:20:18.320 --> 0:20:21.560 us out with the flood of twenty fifteen. I believe 0:20:21.560 --> 0:20:23.760 in Baton Rouge they had the big flood and you 0:20:23.840 --> 0:20:25.840 and Trump were there and you were handing out food 0:20:26.480 --> 0:20:28.800 and helping serve. It was pretty awesome. 0:20:29.720 --> 0:20:33.000 Are you talking about after Katrina, No. 0:20:33.119 --> 0:20:34.000 There was a flood. 0:20:34.119 --> 0:20:36.520 I think it was after Trump announced he was running 0:20:36.960 --> 0:20:40.480 for the first time. I think you guys were in 0:20:40.560 --> 0:20:42.840 Baton Rouge. I don't know if you remember, but then 0:20:42.840 --> 0:20:45.800 also there was Katrine too as well, which I definitely 0:20:45.800 --> 0:20:47.000 made it through, thank God. 0:20:47.760 --> 0:20:52.760 Yeah, well, listen, I'm just I hate the fact that 0:20:53.200 --> 0:20:55.520 when I see my fellow American suffering. You know, we 0:20:55.960 --> 0:20:59.520 spend all this money abroad to help out other countries 0:20:59.520 --> 0:21:01.360 when they're in need, because that's who we are. 0:21:01.400 --> 0:21:02.199 We're Americans. 0:21:02.200 --> 0:21:06.760 But the first priority is any American natural disaster they 0:21:06.800 --> 0:21:11.040 need help. Americans always are there for their fellow Americans. 0:21:11.160 --> 0:21:14.400 And I remember seeing this up close and personal after 0:21:14.520 --> 0:21:18.320 nine to eleven, and the amount of love and support 0:21:18.600 --> 0:21:23.919 from people all across this country was remarkable. And we 0:21:23.960 --> 0:21:28.120 had syndicated this radio program the day before nine to eleven, 0:21:28.880 --> 0:21:32.240 and one of our affiliates, first affiliates, was in Los Angeles. 0:21:32.280 --> 0:21:35.560 They actually had people drive up and send notes in 0:21:35.640 --> 0:21:40.919 this big, big, massive mural and they signed it and 0:21:40.960 --> 0:21:44.000 they sent these loving notes to people, and we ended 0:21:44.080 --> 0:21:46.240 up you know, I forgot where we hung it, but 0:21:46.280 --> 0:21:48.160 we hung it so people would be able to walk 0:21:48.160 --> 0:21:51.439 along and read it. And then I remember, you know, 0:21:51.640 --> 0:21:57.159 companies like local delicatessens and pizza places, and you know, 0:21:57.200 --> 0:21:59.520 I remember Campbell's soup. I don't know why campbell Soup 0:21:59.600 --> 0:22:01.679 comes to but it does. I like Campbell Soup. I 0:22:01.720 --> 0:22:06.800 like Campbell soup, Chicken Noodle, and you know, they set 0:22:06.880 --> 0:22:09.760 up you know, like twenty four hour, twenty four hour 0:22:09.800 --> 0:22:12.320 a day, seven day a week, you know, free soup 0:22:12.560 --> 0:22:15.480 or all the first responders and people that would walk by. 0:22:16.119 --> 0:22:18.640 They just give free soup to everybody and take care 0:22:18.680 --> 0:22:21.600 of everybody. Americans helping Americans. It's kind of a cool thing. 0:22:21.960 --> 0:22:22.520 That's awesome. 0:22:22.600 --> 0:22:22.760 Yeah. 0:22:22.800 --> 0:22:26.000 I just remember also after the big hurricane ATS he 0:22:26.119 --> 0:22:28.120 had in North Carolina it was a few years ago, 0:22:28.560 --> 0:22:31.639 and how they were just basically left abandoned with no help. 0:22:32.160 --> 0:22:35.240 Until I couldn't believe it. I kept talking about it. 0:22:35.280 --> 0:22:37.400 I'm like, Colloa, can we help these people out? 0:22:37.440 --> 0:22:42.200 Please? Yeah, hello, Americans in need get there, right. 0:22:42.359 --> 0:22:44.960
