On today's show, Stephen K. Bannon is joined by Alex Jones and Colonel Steve Harvey to discuss the latest in the House of Representatives, including the vote on the new House Speaker candidate, Jim Jordan, and why he's the best choice to replace John McCarthy as speaker.
00:06:47.900But they're ruled by the new emperors of the Chinese Communist Party.
00:06:52.280Did the Chinese Communist Party and the Persians lay a trap for us in Gaza, sir?
00:06:59.460Well, I think they are trying to bleed us, distract us, and undermine our resources as we're involved in various places and then to see what opportunities present themselves.
00:07:10.840That said, I also think that if Israel is not successful in dismantling Hamas and making sure the world knows that, it will impact us significantly.
00:07:23.340So that's the dilemma that we have as we go forward.
00:07:27.440What I'd like to point out is, you know, as we're going through this, they're trying to delegitimize Israel through lawfare, asymmetric warfare, using the propaganda of the victimization of the Palestinians that are in Gaza.
00:07:47.360And we're already seeing that in the media.
00:07:50.080And we see it from the administration.
00:07:51.920They don't make the same complaints about the Ukraine-Russia conflict.
00:08:03.180You know, we need to end the cycle of violence, those types of things.
00:08:06.520No, but they bring that language into the situation between Israel and, you know, Hamas, which is unfortunate.
00:08:15.980And as we head into, you know, what could be a significant ground campaign, Steve, I mentioned to you on a note, you know, about what this war will look like on the ground.
00:08:36.320One side is using civilians to protect themselves and has been proud of that.
00:08:41.700But in Aachen, Germany, in 1944, we lined up our artillery and destroyed the town block by block, building by building, rather than go in there and fight and lose American lives.
00:08:55.580We did the same thing in the tunnels in the island campaign in the Pacific, where we had petrol poured down tunnel complexes and lit.
00:09:06.400And then we bulldozed over where smoke and stuff came up through the tunnel complexes over acres and acres of land.
00:09:14.760And what we're looking at in Gaza is going to be buildings set up as booby traps, streets set up as booby traps.
00:09:21.860Hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on.
00:09:24.040And the New York Times reported this article, and I've put it up on Getter, and people need to read this because you know this region better than anybody.
00:09:36.840It's just not IDF military intelligence and their internal military intelligence that missed strategically the one or two years of detailed planning, recruiting, financing, training for this air, sea, land attack.
00:09:50.060it's even at the moment of attack it took six or eight hours for the idf to respond and quite
00:09:56.060frankly some of the idf response didn't look that great i mean are we living under a myth
00:10:01.900that look israel were the jewish spartans in 67 what they did was so heroic in 73 when they were
00:10:10.060caught a little bit unaware not on top but during the high holy days they still hid back and hid
00:10:14.960back hard are we kidding ourselves that the same problem we've had here and you just saw a color
00:10:21.820of color revolution exactly the the playbook they ran on trump right to try to force netanyahu out
00:10:27.340office the exact same playbook and many of the same players is the military there too the problem is
00:10:34.860it's woke like the united states military that we have a problem actually tactically and operationally
00:10:39.700sir they believe their own narratives that they were superior and they could handle anything
00:10:46.840they underestimated the enemy they have a problem with being woke and being politicized and not having
00:10:54.140been disciplined and maintaining the rigor that has been necessary and that is the the historical
00:10:59.720tradition of the idf yes they have become softer they're going to have to learn from this and
00:11:06.500sharpen their blades and be ready for much tougher fights going forward the future of israel is at
00:11:14.180stake in the outcome of this conflict in my view why do you say that because if they fail it's going
00:11:26.360to signal to the rest of the world that the united states cannot support and the idf is not up to the
00:11:32.160task deterrence will be undermined because in that part of the world you need to really hammer your
00:11:39.120foes and be brutal about it and win a war and if you don't do that and you don't show your mettle
00:11:44.640then they're going to come back after you and china and russia and turkey and gutter are going to take
00:11:50.880advantage of it and if i was bb one of the things i would demand of the president in the next phone call
00:11:57.680he gets asking for them to re-establish more relief efforts for the palestinians the last phone call
00:12:05.980on saturday they turned the water on based upon the demand of the of president biden i would ask of
00:12:12.160the united states i demand of the united states that you pressure gutter and get the hamas leadership
00:12:18.160turned over it's as if osama bin laden was still sitting there in gutter it's the same thing hold it
00:12:24.500turn it turn it over they're having press conferences in gutter cutter is the is the is
00:12:30.300the viper's next am i incorrect in that all the financing goes through there everybody's got an
00:12:36.080office every every every terror group in the united states cutter was not with us when president trump
00:12:41.460tried to cut off the financing those they're the ones that got up on our grill everybody looks the
00:12:46.420other way the the american wall street's in business with them the city of london's in business with
00:12:52.080them they're spread they spread money all over they're trying to make investments in sports
00:12:56.280franchises here in the united states they're trying to uh they're they're they're they're the railhead
00:13:01.940of much of the problem they're the interconnection also between the persians and the suny so are we
00:13:08.000kidding ourselves they're doing press conference so what what should happen that's a problem that's a
00:13:12.600united states problem we need to go after that problem they're getting a pass by this administration
00:13:19.240in the world community and you and i both know that muhammad bin zaid and muhammad bin salman and
00:13:26.940the leaders in the arab world understand this about gutter and that they have been working all sides
00:13:32.840playing nice with us publicly and diplomatically but they are you know evil in this regard and
00:13:41.480we've got too many leaders in the pentagon and the intelligence community and administration
00:13:45.580who benefit as well as think tanks like brookings who benefit from the largesse of the qataris and
00:13:52.840that's their money that they pay off to protect themselves that's their protection money
00:13:57.340the the intelligence security services the mukha barat the militaries of the region they all
00:14:04.880understand the palestinians are troublemakers just like the qataris are and we have to understand
00:14:10.640which side we need to be on at the end of the day colonel harvey can you hang from one more one
00:14:17.620more segment we're gonna take a short commercial break colonel derrick harvey was on the national
00:14:22.320security council for president trump uh was one of his main go-to guys also was over with devon
00:14:29.140nunez cash patel and and derrick were the two uh i call them the two guns over there on house intel
00:14:35.640when we really had a house intel derrick's the one that started the initiated the um the uh the
00:14:42.040security uh review of sequoia capital remember that heard that this is what the con is the money
00:14:50.860gets spread around and they take the power next in the war room last month the g20 announced a plan
00:15:02.340to impose digital currencies and digital ids on their respective populations no i'm not making
00:15:09.660that up that is a fact central bank digital currencies essentially allow the government to track every
00:15:15.900purchase you make they could even allow officials to prohibit you from purchasing certain products
00:15:22.040or easily freeze or seize part or all of your money let that sink in for a second
00:15:29.760in essence they enable the government to take more control over your personal finances concerned
00:15:36.560americans are diversifying their assets into physical gold with the help of birch gold group

00:16:40.140989898 text it right now here's your host stephen k bannon
00:16:47.140colonel harvey uh matt gates um believes president biden's done the right thing by sending two
00:16:58.180carrier battle groups to the eastern mediterranean my concern with that it's like sending the carrier
00:17:04.040battle group into the persian gulf i think the eastern meds a shooting gallery now particularly
00:17:09.060with advanced technology correct me if i'm wrong you're you're the you're the military strategist
00:17:14.260guy isn't the isn't deterrence the belief of the enemy that you will actually use and do you think
00:17:21.100what will happen in the middle east given your 30 years 40 years of experience over there with
00:17:26.840cencom and in iraq and in the white house what what will happen in the region if american combat
00:17:36.040troops are are put in or american air power comes to the defense of israel
00:17:40.080i believe that would be one of the worst things we could do
00:17:44.640resupply intelligence medical supplies provide blood banks since the international red cross
00:17:55.120refuses to provide blood and blood product to the idf i think it would rebound against us if we took a
00:18:04.800direct part and the israeli political leadership understands that very well and they do not want
00:18:10.740to be dependent upon the united states in that way i'll break right there and just say something about
00:18:16.860hezbollah and they're they're thinking they were shocked by the pummeling they took for taking
00:18:24.640dealing with two or three israelis that were taken idf soldiers and the deaths of some soldiers
00:18:32.340previously about 10 years ago and they do not want to go through that again and that's part of the
00:18:39.220reason that the israelis mobilized 300 000 reservists is they're sending a signal to their neighbors in
00:18:45.540the north and to syria that we're in the big leagues right now and if you mess with us we're going to
00:18:52.960hammer you the question for me is does israel have the capacity the training the leadership
00:18:59.440the weapons and the munition reserves to be able to do what is necessary
00:19:04.460the munition reserves uh let's talk about that in in the whole geostrategic picture including taiwan
00:19:14.900correct me if i'm wrong haven't we and hasn't the israelis
00:19:19.420shipped so many weapons into into the into the failed war in ukraine
00:19:24.680that um that everybody's short of ammo right now we're short in taiwan the western pacific short
00:19:30.920the army is short over there the israelis are short and one of the reasons they're short
00:19:34.780and critically right now is because of their involvement in the ukraine situation
00:19:39.460you're absolutely right you're well read steve
00:19:43.820um you know the idf reserve stocks were were managed by the united states and they drew on
00:19:51.980on those stocks in order to redirect those munitions to the ukrainian military
00:19:58.280ho ho ho ho whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa hang on hang on hang on hang on you just dropped a bomb i want
00:20:04.080this is why i asked the question when everybody understand this hit rewind and go back through
00:20:08.900that for a second because we didn't need to get here and we're in it now and my fear
00:20:16.800is another 10 or 20 because when you have the turks and the persians and the bedouins and the arabs and
00:20:23.840all of it when it lights up you're not going to be put this back in the bottle this is warfare is
00:20:30.700always about annihilation that keeps increasing that's what the history of this war shows us a history of
00:20:36.700these wars show us and that's what's going to happen here so we gotta we gotta nip it in the
00:20:41.520butt at the beginning walk me through how who manages the idf's reserve stocks u.s war reserves
00:20:51.160we maintain a a control element over those to be able to access them if they're they are needed by a
00:21:00.380decision of the united states and we initiated that action some time ago in order to draw down
00:21:06.160u.s provided munitions that were being maintained by the idf for the idf use and they were redirected
