WEBVTT - The End Game: Prevent Iran from Going Nuclear 0:00:00.040 --> 0:00:01.240 Thanks to all of you for being with us. 0:00:01.320 --> 0:00:04.040 Right down our toll free telephone number, it's eight hundred 0:00:04.080 --> 0:00:07.080 and ninety four one Sean if you want to join 0:00:07.200 --> 0:00:08.600 us all. We have a lot of news we got 0:00:08.600 --> 0:00:12.880 to get to today. Let me just say, if you 0:00:13.080 --> 0:00:16.960 know Donald Trump, unlike so many the comment about Donald Trump, 0:00:17.680 --> 0:00:22.520 and you know his objectives and you actually listen to 0:00:22.720 --> 0:00:26.759 what he says, he is not somebody that is that 0:00:27.080 --> 0:00:31.680 complicated to figure out. When he gave the Iranians fifty 0:00:31.800 --> 0:00:36.440 days before Midnight Hammer, he meant fifty days. He gave 0:00:36.479 --> 0:00:40.040 them an opportunity every time before epic fury, and now 0:00:40.120 --> 0:00:41.920 they have an opportunity to make a deal. 0:00:42.360 --> 0:00:42.559 I know. 0:00:42.640 --> 0:00:46.599 It's the fourth tier leadership of the Iranians, although they 0:00:46.920 --> 0:00:48.800 kind of I guess in a similar sense if you 0:00:48.880 --> 0:00:52.480 think of proof of life and a kidnap ransom situation 0:00:53.240 --> 0:00:56.480 by again and again showing and I'll play President Trump 0:00:56.560 --> 0:01:00.440 on the weekend coming up, that they're allowing twenty huge 0:01:00.600 --> 0:01:05.839 oil tankers as promised through the Strait of Hormuz. Clearly 0:01:05.959 --> 0:01:08.400 the people that the White House is talking to have 0:01:08.400 --> 0:01:11.720 have power or else that would not be possible. They 0:01:11.760 --> 0:01:15.920 wouldn't be able to accomplish that if you do know him, 0:01:16.400 --> 0:01:19.160 and you do listen to him, and you have faith 0:01:19.200 --> 0:01:21.080 in him and have been a supporter, not one of 0:01:21.120 --> 0:01:23.800 these you know, fair weather friend supporters that think they 0:01:23.840 --> 0:01:26.319 know Donald Trump, that don't know anything about Donald Trump 0:01:27.160 --> 0:01:29.959 and at various times hated Donald Trump, but act like 0:01:29.959 --> 0:01:31.959 they're the experts on Donald Trump. And there's a lot 0:01:31.959 --> 0:01:35.440 of those people out there. I've known him for thirty years. 0:01:35.480 --> 0:01:38.039 He means what he says. This, This is how I 0:01:38.080 --> 0:01:40.240 will interpret it for you and then give you the 0:01:40.280 --> 0:01:45.160 specifics behind it is. Donald Trump now has indicated Mark 0:01:45.240 --> 0:01:48.120 or Rubio has indicated for people that actually want to 0:01:48.120 --> 0:01:52.920 pay attention, this Operation Epic Fury is winding down and 0:01:52.960 --> 0:01:57.000 winding down very very clearly. You know, last when the 0:01:57.040 --> 0:02:00.000 White House first started negotiation, we now know who would 0:02:00.160 --> 0:02:03.560 is the head of the Uranium Parliament, I guess is 0:02:04.080 --> 0:02:07.160 one of the main things. Now there is fragmented leadership, 0:02:07.480 --> 0:02:10.320 and I'm sure that there is a power vacuum, and 0:02:10.360 --> 0:02:12.400 I'm sure that there's probably a little bit of a 0:02:12.440 --> 0:02:18.080 power struggle within Iran and probably some disagreements. But with 0:02:18.200 --> 0:02:21.000 all of that said, you know, it's sort of like 0:02:21.080 --> 0:02:24.160 John Brennan saying last week, Oh, I believe the Iranians 0:02:24.200 --> 0:02:27.200 over Donald Trump. If they say they're not negotiating, they're 0:02:27.200 --> 0:02:30.320 not negotiating. And then Donald Trump got his present and 0:02:30.600 --> 0:02:33.359 those oil tankers went right through the Strait of Hormuz 0:02:33.440 --> 0:02:37.320 with no problems at all whatsoever. There is a reason 0:02:37.400 --> 0:02:40.080 that you have thirty five US sailors and marines that 0:02:40.200 --> 0:02:42.480 have arrived in the Middle East. I'm going to tell 0:02:42.520 --> 0:02:44.680 you what the President said that I'm going to interpret 0:02:44.720 --> 0:02:46.200 it all for you, and I'm going to tell you 0:02:46.240 --> 0:02:51.160 that my interpretation is very clear. It is unambiguous. Is 0:02:51.480 --> 0:02:53.760 if you read the tea leaves and you know Donald 0:02:53.760 --> 0:02:56.680 Trump's guiding principles and what he has said, and what 0:02:56.720 --> 0:03:00.200 his stated goals are and what they have won to 0:03:00.200 --> 0:03:03.560 accomplish here, and what precipitated epicure in the first place. 0:03:03.560 --> 0:03:06.120 When you factor all of that in together, there is 0:03:06.200 --> 0:03:10.960 now a fairly predictable outcome and a fairly short time 0:03:11.040 --> 0:03:14.400 frame because the ten days that he gave him last 0:03:14.400 --> 0:03:17.880 week to negotiate are quickly coming to an end. And 0:03:18.320 --> 0:03:22.320 the goal has always been, beyond everything else, is to 0:03:22.400 --> 0:03:27.040 destroy any potential possibility that the Iranians can have nuclear weapons. 0:03:27.520 --> 0:03:29.880 That has been their number one goal. In the process, 0:03:29.919 --> 0:03:32.680 they have destroyed their navy, their air force, their missile 0:03:32.720 --> 0:03:37.760 defense systems, their missile launchers, their ballistic missile systems. And 0:03:37.840 --> 0:03:41.520 now we can now achieve our objectives. You know, whether 0:03:41.600 --> 0:03:44.080 or not the ground troops will be necessary or not. 0:03:44.280 --> 0:03:47.720 Now there are a couple of things that need to 0:03:47.800 --> 0:03:51.720 happen before you could really say that the president has 0:03:51.760 --> 0:03:55.360 accomplished all of his goals there. And this then goes 0:03:55.440 --> 0:03:59.520 to the real reason why we went in in the 0:03:59.520 --> 0:04:02.160 first place. And the saddest part of all of this, 0:04:02.520 --> 0:04:06.160 assuming that the president can and again this none of 0:04:06.200 --> 0:04:10.560 this is easy. All of it is hard being a 0:04:10.600 --> 0:04:13.880 commander in chief. You know, George Bush famously said, I'm 0:04:13.960 --> 0:04:16.760 the decider. I have to make those decisions. Ultimately, the 0:04:16.760 --> 0:04:19.800 president had to make a decision. And I've said from 0:04:19.839 --> 0:04:23.320 the beginning that there are three principles really guiding Donald Trump, 0:04:24.000 --> 0:04:26.160 and one is he learned the lesson from Reagan. Peace 0:04:26.160 --> 0:04:29.560 through strength. This president. That's how he defeated the Isis Caliphate. 0:04:29.640 --> 0:04:31.680 Never got the credit he deserved, but that was an 0:04:31.680 --> 0:04:35.920 existential threat to America in the world. Took out Solomani 0:04:36.000 --> 0:04:39.680 bag Daddy took out drop the mother of all bombs 0:04:39.680 --> 0:04:44.480 on Afghanistan, Midnight Hammer fourteen bunker buster bombs, taking out 0:04:44.520 --> 0:04:48.520 the nuclear Richmond capabilities and so on and so forth, 0:04:48.560 --> 0:04:52.720 and then giving them time. Here what precipitated this, Let's 0:04:52.760 --> 0:04:55.240 go back to it, because this is what's also going 0:04:55.320 --> 0:04:59.880 to end it. And again, just pay attention to what 0:05:00.120 --> 0:05:04.279 the President is saying. Listen to what he's saying. Listen 0:05:04.360 --> 0:05:07.280 to what Mark or Rubio is saying. Listen to what 0:05:07.360 --> 0:05:11.080 Witkoff is saying. Now, if you recall, it was the 0:05:11.120 --> 0:05:15.480 Middle East Envoy Jared Steve Witkoff along with Jared Kushner. 0:05:15.960 --> 0:05:19.160 They were negotiating with the Iranians. They were saying to 0:05:19.200 --> 0:05:24.440 the Iranians, in this negotiation, we will provide civilian use 0:05:25.000 --> 0:05:28.560 enriched uranium, which is about five percent enrichment and it's 0:05:28.640 --> 0:05:31.359 very hard to go from five to sixty percent. And 0:05:31.400 --> 0:05:35.960 the Iranians said no, They said they had they had 0:05:36.000 --> 0:05:40.719 the right to enrich uranium and have nuclear weapons. Okay, 0:05:40.800 --> 0:05:43.720 that was a non starter. And then they bragged about 0:05:43.800 --> 0:05:47.080 their thousand plus pounds or four under and sixty kilograms 0:05:47.120 --> 0:05:50.400 whichever Linda prefers on any given day, which would be 0:05:51.000 --> 0:05:54.560 sixty percent enrichment to get to ninety percent weapons great enrichment. 0:05:54.640 --> 0:05:57.120 That would be about a seven to twelve day process, 0:05:57.160 --> 0:05:59.839 depending on which nuclear scientists you might be talking to 0:06:00.040 --> 0:06:02.840 on any given day. That would be the equivalent of 0:06:02.880 --> 0:06:06.719 having enough capability to build eleven nuclear bombs. 0:06:07.440 --> 0:06:08.080 All right, that. 0:06:09.880 --> 0:06:13.400 Was the inflection point. Again, if I talked to the 0:06:13.440 --> 0:06:17.599 President gotten specific confirmation, No, but it's obvious because the 0:06:17.640 --> 0:06:21.480 President's stated words where they can never have nuclear weapons, 0:06:22.200 --> 0:06:25.599 At that point it became far more imminent their ability 0:06:25.720 --> 0:06:29.599 to get nuclear weapons, which the President then had to 0:06:29.640 --> 0:06:33.920 apply other military and historical principles too. And I think 0:06:33.960 --> 0:06:36.480 the second thing that the President looked at, well, this 0:06:36.560 --> 0:06:39.880 is an evil regime, the number one state sponsor of terror. Yes, 0:06:39.920 --> 0:06:43.360 they do chant death to America, death to Israel. They 0:06:43.360 --> 0:06:47.400 have been fomenting death and destruction throughout the region their history. 0:06:47.480 --> 0:06:51.520 Their fanaticism coupled with a weapon of mass destruction, you know, 0:06:51.640 --> 0:06:55.160 could lead to a modern day holocaust. And if we 0:06:55.279 --> 0:06:57.440 learned anything from the last one hundred years of history, 0:06:57.440 --> 0:07:00.560 which we have gone into great depth and specificity detail 0:07:00.560 --> 0:07:03.719 on this program, over one hundred million dead human souls, 0:07:04.120 --> 0:07:06.760 And you ask yourself what are the lessons to be 0:07:06.839 --> 0:07:09.720 learned from history? If you have a chance to take 0:07:09.760 --> 0:07:13.600 out radicalism that could result in millions of dead people 0:07:13.920 --> 0:07:17.880 ahead of time, I think history would teach us take 0:07:17.920 --> 0:07:21.040 advantage of that window of opportunity and remove that threat. 0:07:21.600 --> 0:07:23.920 And that I do believe, at the end of the day, 0:07:24.120 --> 0:07:27.320 is what the guiding principle has been for the president. 0:07:27.360 --> 0:07:31.080 Here the third thing, and this part has yet to 0:07:31.120 --> 0:07:35.560 be proven, but if if my timeline and calculation is correct, 0:07:36.560 --> 0:07:40.640 and that you know, three weeks from now, we are 0:07:40.680 --> 0:07:45.120 going to be having about Iran a very very different discussion, 0:07:46.040 --> 0:07:52.520 very different discussion, because there are really two major strategic goals. 0:07:52.640 --> 0:07:56.760 The first one has to do with the real fundamental 0:07:56.760 --> 0:07:59.400 reason that I believe the President went in, which is 0:07:59.440 --> 0:08:02.920 the untold story, and that is that they were way 0:08:03.000 --> 0:08:08.960 closer to getting enough enriched weapons grade uranium than anybody 0:08:09.040 --> 0:08:14.640 had ever known. Whenever globalist organizations had made assessments about 0:08:14.760 --> 0:08:19.560 Iranians military capability, they have been dead wrong. The IAEA 0:08:19.640 --> 0:08:25.200 has always been dead wrong. They've always underestimate, underestimated their capabilities. 0:08:25.760 --> 0:08:28.920 And we learned something else in the course of this 0:08:29.080 --> 0:08:34.640 conflict that the Iranians had ballistic missiles that had a 0:08:34.720 --> 0:08:38.640 far greater range than had previously been known. Now Gordon 0:08:38.720 --> 0:08:41.960 Chang will join us later later in the program. Today 0:08:42.480 --> 0:08:44.760 he will tell you that with the help of the 0:08:44.840 --> 0:08:50.200 North Koreans that even though we estimate their current ranges 0:08:50.240 --> 0:08:54.040 somewhere in the twenty five one hundred mile plus range, 0:08:54.320 --> 0:08:56.679 somewhere in and around that area, which we didn't think 0:08:56.760 --> 0:09:00.600 that they had, that in fact it may be must 0:09:00.800 --> 0:09:04.079 much higher. If the North Koreans, as suspected by some 0:09:04.120 --> 0:09:07.400 people in the Intel community, you know, have these boosters 0:09:07.440 --> 0:09:09.440 that could then you know, now we're talking about the 0:09:09.480 --> 0:09:13.600 potential very quickly, very soon, of reaching the continental US. 0:09:14.520 --> 0:09:17.520 You know, if the President is fully successful in this mission, 0:09:17.640 --> 0:09:20.160 we will be finished in no time. But there are 0:09:20.200 --> 0:09:23.240 two main components that have to be dealt with. One 0:09:23.760 --> 0:09:25.840 is what led us in there in the first place, 0:09:26.480 --> 0:09:31.280 the clear and present danger of the Iranians or the 0:09:31.520 --> 0:09:35.679 thousand pounds of sixty percent of rich uranium. Now we're 0:09:35.679 --> 0:09:38.880 in the middle of negotiations with the Iranians, and the 0:09:38.880 --> 0:09:41.680 President put out this truth social post. It says the 0:09:41.800 --> 0:09:45.800 United States, the USA is in serious discussions with a 0:09:45.840 --> 0:09:49.880 new more reasonable regime to end our military operations in 0:09:49.920 --> 0:09:52.400 a ram. Now, granted, you have to assume that this 0:09:52.520 --> 0:09:55.520 fragmented leadership, you have to assume that, you have to 0:09:55.559 --> 0:09:59.560 assume that there is a battle fight for power. But 0:09:59.800 --> 0:10:02.520 to go on. The President also went into great length 0:10:02.559 --> 0:10:08.280 about how this particular group of negotiators also have proven 0:10:08.840 --> 0:10:11.800 that they have the power to accomplish things, as evidence 0:10:11.840 --> 0:10:14.400 by the twenty oil tankers that they've allowed through the 0:10:14.440 --> 0:10:17.440 Strait of Hormuz. Now, he said, great progress has been made, 0:10:17.600 --> 0:10:21.000 but if for any reason a deal is not shortly reached, 0:10:21.040 --> 0:10:24.240 which it probably will be, and if the Horn Mouz 0:10:24.280 --> 0:10:27.880 straight is not immediately open for business, we will conclude 0:10:28.360 --> 0:10:32.000 our lovely stay in Iran by blowing up and completely 0:10:32.040 --> 0:10:36.960 obliterating all of their electric generating plants, oil wells, carg Island, 0:10:37.920 --> 0:10:41.920 and possibly all desalinization plants which they need because they've 0:10:41.920 --> 0:10:45.360 had a massive drought there, which we have purposely not 0:10:45.520 --> 0:10:49.000 yet touched. This will be in retribution for our many 0:10:49.040 --> 0:10:53.120 soldiers and others that Iran has butchered and killed over 0:10:53.160 --> 0:10:56.560 the old regime's forty seven year reign of terror. Thank 0:10:56.600 --> 0:10:58.800 you for your attention to this matter, Donald J. 0:10:58.960 --> 0:10:59.280 Trump. 0:10:59.280 --> 0:11:03.120 Now, the President warned the Uranian negotiators. If they don't 0:11:03.200 --> 0:11:06.480 make this deal soon and they don't open the street 0:11:06.520 --> 0:11:08.600 of horn moves, I would say that there are two 0:11:08.760 --> 0:11:17.319 big military accomplishments left. One is this sixty percent enriched 0:11:17.440 --> 0:11:22.520 uranium issue, because the danger is if they either will 0:11:22.520 --> 0:11:27.120 give it over voluntarily or it will be taken by force. 0:11:27.240 --> 0:11:31.800 It is not an accident that we now have over 0:11:32.160 --> 0:11:36.959 thirty five hundred marines ready to go into Iran if possible. Now, 0:11:37.080 --> 0:11:41.240 is that the first choice? Absolutely positively not. Is the 0:11:41.240 --> 0:11:44.960 President clearly, as he did before Midnight Hammer and Epic Fury, 0:11:45.120 --> 0:11:47.320 trying to prevent that from happening. 0:11:47.960 --> 0:11:48.680 Yes, he is. 0:11:49.400 --> 0:11:52.320 Has everyone that made every prediction about Donald Trump and 0:11:52.440 --> 0:11:55.560 dead wrong. They couldn't be more wrong about what the 0:11:55.559 --> 0:11:59.400 Trump doctrine is. But you know, the three principles are 0:11:59.480 --> 0:12:00.480 what would be the point? 0:12:00.840 --> 0:12:01.200 All right? 0:12:01.280 --> 0:12:05.040 The president it was never his stated goal for regime change, 0:12:05.480 --> 0:12:09.120 but regime change happened. It happened in the opening minutes 0:12:09.160 --> 0:12:11.000 of Epic Fury and Roaring Lion. 0:12:11.679 --> 0:12:12.360 It just happened. 0:12:12.400 --> 0:12:14.960 They wiped out the first tier of leadership, the second 0:12:14.960 --> 0:12:18.200 tier of leadership, the third tier of leadership were either 0:12:18.240 --> 0:12:20.640 at the fourth of fifth nobody can say for sure. 0:12:20.679 --> 0:12:24.080 And and so I've got to imagine that the people 0:12:24.120 --> 0:12:29.400 they are negotiating with had to have learned something. Because 0:12:30.040 --> 0:12:32.520 what is what is really sad in all of this 0:12:32.600 --> 0:12:35.840 for the president is we will never be able to calculate. 0:12:36.440 --> 0:12:41.160 We probably at some point will learn how dangerous, how 0:12:41.280 --> 0:12:45.640 dangerously closed the Iranians were to having nuclear weapons. Now, 0:12:45.679 --> 0:12:47.200 there are going to be some of people out there 0:12:47.240 --> 0:12:50.680 that will doubt. There are some people that you know 0:12:51.000 --> 0:12:54.040 that have always wanted to say that this is going 0:12:54.120 --> 0:12:56.560 to be a forever war. There are some people that 0:12:56.600 --> 0:13:00.520 would rightly be skeptical. I'm not even against skeptic. I 0:13:00.520 --> 0:13:04.439 think skepticism within an administration and outside of an administration 0:13:04.559 --> 0:13:07.640 can be actually helpful. And you've got to look at 0:13:07.640 --> 0:13:11.600 an upside downside to any military decision that a president 0:13:11.640 --> 0:13:13.319 has to make. But in the end, the president has 0:13:13.400 --> 0:13:16.680 to make it. And people would say, well, we don't 0:13:16.720 --> 0:13:18.600 want this to become a quagmire, we don't want this 0:13:18.720 --> 0:13:21.720 to become Iraq and Afghanistan. We don't want America to 0:13:21.760 --> 0:13:24.960 return to the idea of nation building. We don't want 0:13:24.960 --> 0:13:27.800 a forever war. Why should we believe the same government 0:13:27.800 --> 0:13:31.080 that lied to us about COVID. Those are all legitimate criticisms, 0:13:31.120 --> 0:13:32.240 except none of them have to. 0:13:32.160 --> 0:13:35.960 Do with Donald J. Trump. And that's the point. So 0:13:36.440 --> 0:13:39.120 this could create and this would be the thing. 0:13:39.840 --> 0:13:42.840 If we could have taken out the Nazi regime and Hitler, 0:13:43.360 --> 0:13:46.920 how many lives could have been saved if we acted earlier. 0:13:46.960 --> 0:13:50.160 It's not like if Donald Trump is fully completely successful 0:13:50.280 --> 0:13:53.200 and prevents them from getting this nuclear weapon or nuclear 0:13:53.240 --> 0:13:56.839 capability and ballistic missile capability, You're not going to be 0:13:56.880 --> 0:13:59.120 able to sit there with a calculator and figure out 0:13:59.160 --> 0:14:02.520 how many how many human lives ultimately were saved here. 0:14:03.600 --> 0:14:06.319 But so the best case scenario is one that I'm 0:14:06.360 --> 0:14:10.480 hoping for is that the Iranians will wise up understand 0:14:10.480 --> 0:14:14.079 they've got no shot. They'll have no country, no money, 0:14:14.280 --> 0:14:17.920 no infrastructure left because the president means what he says, 0:14:17.960 --> 0:14:21.440 he doesn't make idle threats, and that everybody that had 0:14:21.440 --> 0:14:24.720 been so dead sure they understood Donald Trump in the end, 0:14:24.760 --> 0:14:28.360 I think will be proven wrong now or they're going 0:14:28.400 --> 0:14:29.320 to do it the hard way. 0:14:29.920 --> 0:14:31.760 And so far every. 0:14:31.560 --> 0:14:34.720 Time they've had that choice, unfortunately they've chosen the hard way. 0:14:41.320 --> 0:14:45.800 There's been so many lives, so much propaganda, you know. 0:14:45.960 --> 0:14:50.160 And it's interesting because the American people, especially the president supporters, 0:14:50.440 --> 0:14:53.000 about ninety percent of them, support what he's doing here. 0:14:53.040 --> 0:14:55.760 But President has been clear about this from the start. 0:14:56.640 --> 0:15:00.440 They're going to eliminate a RAN's nuclear missile and missile ruts. 0:15:00.720 --> 0:15:03.720 They're going to leave the regime no way to assault 0:15:03.760 --> 0:15:07.560 its neighbors moving forward. Nor do they want to decimate 0:15:07.760 --> 0:15:11.680 the world's energy supplies. The President is clearly threatening that 0:15:11.840 --> 0:15:14.760 to get their attention, and he will. He said from 0:15:14.760 --> 0:15:17.000 the beginning it would be four to six weeks. We're 0:15:17.040 --> 0:15:19.640 now on the other side of that. We're getting close 0:15:20.200 --> 0:15:22.960 where it's going to be about two issues moving forward. 0:15:23.360 --> 0:15:25.720 One is going to be keeping the keeping open the 0:15:25.720 --> 0:15:27.920 straight of Horn moves for the free flow of oil 0:15:28.000 --> 0:15:30.040 up market prices. And the second is going to be 0:15:30.600 --> 0:15:34.840 they cannot have sixty percent enriched uranium. The President refused 0:15:34.840 --> 0:15:38.080 to list anything as off limits, including that would be 0:15:38.080 --> 0:15:41.360 a limited ground operation if they don't give it up voluntarily, 0:15:41.440 --> 0:15:46.000 that enriched uranium. But according to everyone else, he's failing. Oh, 0:15:46.040 --> 0:15:48.680 he's actually succeeding at a level I've never seen before. 0:16:11.280 --> 0:16:13.320 Be sure to check in as soon as you get 0:16:13.360 --> 0:16:17.360 to your car after work for breaking information you need 0:16:17.400 --> 0:16:18.320 to know about. 0:16:18.640 --> 0:16:21.160 This is the Sean Hannity Show. 0:16:22.840 --> 0:16:30.480 So from my perspective, and again I don't it's kind 0:16:30.480 --> 0:16:33.640 of hard to say this. Knowing Donald Trump as well 0:16:33.640 --> 0:16:38.880 as I do, knowing how he thinks, knowing his history, 0:16:39.760 --> 0:16:43.680 covering this man for eleven years, I know how I 0:16:44.080 --> 0:16:48.000 know he means what he says. And the amazing part 0:16:48.040 --> 0:16:51.640 of this is people don't listen. The media purposely doesn't listen. 0:16:51.720 --> 0:16:54.960 The Democrats that they purposely don't listen. If you look 0:16:54.960 --> 0:16:57.160 at the media. I mean, I talked about this. I 0:16:57.160 --> 0:17:00.480 was doing Patrick Bette David's podcast last week and I 0:17:00.560 --> 0:17:04.320 talked about this. I mean, it is so disgusting how 0:17:04.359 --> 0:17:07.359 the corrupt media in this country is. You know, you 0:17:07.480 --> 0:17:10.639 have you know, the economists claiming Iran is winning. Did 0:17:10.680 --> 0:17:13.720 in ha Kem Jefferies also say Iran's going to win 0:17:13.760 --> 0:17:17.480 and RAN's winning. Republicans in Congress convinced this is this 0:17:17.520 --> 0:17:20.560 is going to be a forever war. It's not, and 0:17:20.600 --> 0:17:22.679 it's not. When you say, well, Hannity, how do you 0:17:22.800 --> 0:17:27.000 know that? Because I know Donald Trump and I'm listening 0:17:27.160 --> 0:17:31.639 very clearly to what he has been saying, and the 0:17:31.680 --> 0:17:35.000 fact that people don't listen is kind of breathtaking to 0:17:35.080 --> 0:17:39.000 me because he has been crystal clear and consistent about 0:17:39.000 --> 0:17:41.880 what the goals of Epic Fury were, you know, from 0:17:41.920 --> 0:17:45.680 the very beginning, and the main the main goal has 0:17:45.800 --> 0:17:51.000 always been to eliminate Iran's nuclear and missile threat and 0:17:51.080 --> 0:17:53.639 also to leave the regime no way to assault their 0:17:53.640 --> 0:17:58.320 neighbors nor decimate the world's energy supplies. And now, and 0:17:58.720 --> 0:18:01.320 he said it would be for to says, well, that 0:18:01.400 --> 0:18:03.879 leaves us about two to three weeks left and it's over. 0:18:04.640 --> 0:18:07.400 And I think we're on that timetable. Now. 0:18:07.520 --> 0:18:09.439 Time will prove if I'm right or wrong, But I 0:18:09.480 --> 0:18:13.040 have every confidence that they're going to continue to degrade 0:18:13.240 --> 0:18:17.560 whatever military capabilities by air because we own the skies 0:18:17.560 --> 0:18:21.800 there that the Iranians may have left. We did learn 0:18:21.880 --> 0:18:26.560 that once again the world underestimated their ballistic missile capability, 0:18:27.600 --> 0:18:30.800 and they were fully transparent and bragging about all this 0:18:31.080 --> 0:18:36.000 sixty percent enriched uranium. We have you combine ballistic missiles 0:18:36.440 --> 0:18:39.640 and the potential maybe with North Korea, because we've learned 0:18:39.680 --> 0:18:41.520 the North Koreans have been helping them out at a 0:18:41.600 --> 0:18:45.320 level we didn't really know until recently I'm sure our 0:18:45.359 --> 0:18:49.120 intel community did know, but their booster rockets would mean 0:18:49.359 --> 0:18:52.080 I mean, we now know their ballistic missiles are capable 0:18:52.080 --> 0:18:55.880 of hitting Paris and London and probably not that far 0:18:55.920 --> 0:18:59.760 away from an intercontinental ballistic missile. Somebody that knows a 0:18:59.760 --> 0:19:01.679 lot about a Gordon Shangle have more to say on 0:19:01.720 --> 0:19:04.399 this at the top of the next hour. But the 0:19:04.400 --> 0:19:07.840 President has been consistent. The President does not believe in 0:19:07.880 --> 0:19:12.440 forever wars now because the calculus of this kind of changed, 0:19:12.520 --> 0:19:16.399 and it's really what precipitated the president's actions here, which 0:19:16.440 --> 0:19:21.800 is the sixty percent enriched uranium. That then complicates things 0:19:21.920 --> 0:19:24.800 a little bit more because there's no way that this 0:19:24.920 --> 0:19:27.119 president is going to come this far and go this 0:19:27.320 --> 0:19:31.480 deep into preventing them from ever becoming a nuclear power 0:19:31.920 --> 0:19:35.920 and leave sixty percent enriched uranium, which if they reconstitute 0:19:35.920 --> 0:19:40.560 their enrichment program, can be turned into weapons grade uranium 0:19:40.600 --> 0:19:42.800 in anywhere from seven to twelve days. So that's not 0:19:42.880 --> 0:19:45.720 going to happen, Nor is the President going to leave 0:19:45.760 --> 0:19:48.280 without a plan in place to see that the free 0:19:48.440 --> 0:19:51.440 flow of oil at market prices remains the same too. 0:19:52.440 --> 0:19:55.160 And yeah, or all the predictable people in the legacy 0:19:55.200 --> 0:19:58.480 media mob. Have they been predicting doom and gloom that 0:19:58.560 --> 0:20:02.000 any of them ever anticipate. And then you've got this 0:20:02.040 --> 0:20:04.520 whole other crowd that really never supported Trump too, the 0:20:04.920 --> 0:20:08.720 new isolationist as I refer to them. You know, okay, 0:20:08.760 --> 0:20:11.600 so Iran's on the precipice of having nuclear weapons and 0:20:11.640 --> 0:20:13.640 you don't want to. You didn't learn anything from World 0:20:13.640 --> 0:20:17.760 War Two. You didn't learn anything from Mao in China, 0:20:18.280 --> 0:20:21.720 or Stalin in Russia or Hitler in Germany. You didn't 0:20:21.760 --> 0:20:26.240 learn a thing from fascism and Mussolini. You didn't You 0:20:26.240 --> 0:20:29.280 didn't learn from Tojo in Japan. You didn't learn over 0:20:29.320 --> 0:20:32.359 one hundred million human souls died and how many of 0:20:32.359 --> 0:20:36.719 those lives could have been saved had we acted sooner 0:20:37.320 --> 0:20:40.760 instead of having this appeasement mindset mentality that that's the 0:20:40.800 --> 0:20:44.360 breathtaking part of how Europe has exposed itself in all 0:20:44.400 --> 0:20:47.359 of this. But the goals that we set out to 0:20:47.440 --> 0:20:50.600 achieve are being achieved by the greatest military on the 0:20:50.640 --> 0:20:54.080 first base of the Earth. And the fact that some 0:20:54.480 --> 0:20:58.560 were are still willing to gamble with the nuclear armed 0:20:58.600 --> 0:21:01.359 Duran as a future for our children and grandchildren, I 0:21:01.640 --> 0:21:04.199 really don't have much to say to them except that 0:21:04.240 --> 0:21:09.840 they're wrong. They are morally historically ignorant, and I don't 0:21:09.880 --> 0:21:13.280 think they understand the nature of evil. So we'll see 0:21:13.280 --> 0:21:16.400 if this can be done the easy way. The President 0:21:16.400 --> 0:21:19.800 has tried numerous times to do things easy, in the 0:21:19.840 --> 0:21:22.560 easy way with the Iranians, but of course we know 0:21:22.720 --> 0:21:27.119 to no avail. And you know, the one thing is, 0:21:27.200 --> 0:21:32.080 assuming the President is successful and defanging this dangerous threat 0:21:32.119 --> 0:21:35.640 to the world, will never be able to calculate how 0:21:35.640 --> 0:21:39.199 many lives may have been saved. You know, had we 0:21:39.280 --> 0:21:43.800 taken out Hitler before Nazi Germany, had the admonitions of 0:21:43.840 --> 0:21:48.240 people like Winston Churchill, you know that won the argument 0:21:48.280 --> 0:21:51.679 of that day versus Neville Chamberlain, how many millions of 0:21:51.720 --> 0:21:54.640 lives would have been saved. And that's the calculation. Look, 0:21:54.680 --> 0:21:57.360 if you have a different opinion than me, I'm perfectly 0:21:57.400 --> 0:22:01.360 fine with that. I know I'm never going to convince 0:22:01.359 --> 0:22:05.840 you that it would be foolish to go in another direction. 0:22:06.520 --> 0:22:08.600 And I'd hate to think of the consequences if we 0:22:08.640 --> 0:22:12.320 didn't have such a decisive president that might not have 0:22:12.359 --> 0:22:16.879 the political will and courage to defang and neutralize a 0:22:17.000 --> 0:22:21.239 threat before millions of lives could be destroyed. Those that 0:22:21.280 --> 0:22:24.360 would be comfortable handing off our country to our children 0:22:24.400 --> 0:22:27.800 and grandchildren with a nuclear armed Iran, I don't understand 0:22:27.840 --> 0:22:32.520 their decision making. Thank god, we have built out first 0:22:32.560 --> 0:22:35.200 really under Donald Trump in his first administration, the next 0:22:35.240 --> 0:22:39.080 generation of weaponry, which made this and none of it 0:22:39.119 --> 0:22:42.640 is easy. I want you to misunderstand me. Every bit 0:22:42.680 --> 0:22:46.199 of this is hard. Anytime you make a decision to 0:22:46.240 --> 0:22:49.040 put our national treasure in harm's way, it is hard. 0:22:49.880 --> 0:22:52.400 But on the other side of it, if we were 0:22:52.480 --> 0:22:56.560 inactive because of political cowardice or a lack of courage 0:22:56.640 --> 0:23:01.639 or resolve or understanding of what could possibly be waiting 0:23:01.680 --> 0:23:05.080 on the other side of a nuclear armed Iran, it's 0:23:05.400 --> 0:23:07.400 It's not something I even want to ever think about, 0:23:07.520 --> 0:23:10.080 and the world hopefully will never have to think about. 0:23:10.800 --> 0:23:12.400 By the way, I don't know if you saw this. 0:23:12.400 --> 0:23:18.560 This progressive candidate Michigan, Abdul l said apparently is a 0:23:18.600 --> 0:23:22.159 candidate Michigan's Democratic us cent a primary, telling his staff 0:23:22.240 --> 0:23:25.080 during a conference call he worried about celebrating the killing 0:23:25.119 --> 0:23:28.760 of the Iranian Iahtola ali Hamani because his voters in 0:23:28.840 --> 0:23:30.720 Dearborn would be very sad about that. 0:23:31.160 --> 0:23:33.199 And I also want to remind you guys that there 0:23:33.240 --> 0:23:36.919 are a lot of people in Dearborn who are sad today. Like, 0:23:37.080 --> 0:23:41.080 I just don't want to comment on MNA at all. 0:23:42.440 --> 0:23:45.840 I don't think it's worth even touching that. Like they're 0:23:45.840 --> 0:23:47.639 gonna try this is what we practiced, but like, is 0:23:48.040 --> 0:23:49.680 it a ham Ani a bad guy? Is Nick great 0:23:49.680 --> 0:23:51.960 that he's dead? On my first amen is eighty six 0:23:52.000 --> 0:23:53.800 years old, who's gonna be dead sometimes soon? Anyway? 0:23:55.359 --> 0:23:57.960 Okay, but just don't say it publicly because we don't 0:23:58.000 --> 0:24:00.600
