The 20th century is the bloodiest century in mankind s history. In the future, they ll look back at it as a new dark age. The end of World War II, the fall of the Berlin Wall, Tiananmen Square, and the end of the Cold War, all marked a turning point in human history.
00:02:51.000Otherwise, you would have lost, I don't know, the Japanese would have lost four or five million people in an invasion in Japan because they would have fought to the bitter end.
00:03:22.000Our allies in World War Two were the Chinese people were allowed by Jing.
00:03:25.000Our allies in World War Two were the Russian people.
00:03:27.000They took the casualties as much as the courage and the bravery and the valor of the Band of Brothers
00:03:33.000and all the great Americans fought in the Pacific, fought in the in North Africa, Italy, in Western Europe and in the air.
00:03:40.000And in the air, I think there's still 40,000 airmen unaccounted for died in the air war over over Germany.
00:03:49.000The Chinese and the and the Russian people lost, I don't know, 40, 50, 60 million people absorbing the blow of the Imperial Japanese Army and, of course, the Wehrmacht.
00:04:18.000How did we how did our State Department infested with with communists from FDR's administration and Truman's administration?
00:04:27.000How did we allow the State Department to turn over China to Mao Zedong and the in the in the bandit Communist Party working with the Chinese tongs?
00:05:06.000And then, what, 50 years later in Tiananmen Square, when when when the goddess of liberty, goddess of democracy was put up.
00:05:15.000And Deng Xiaoping and the ruthless gangsters in Beijing turned Tiananmen Square into a bloodbath, tens of thousands dead, murdered, slaughtered right there.
00:05:25.000George Bush 41 sent Scowcroft over with Jim Baker in that crowd.
00:06:06.000Remember, they tried to make Stalin like Uncle Joe.
00:06:09.000They tried to PR, make him more acceptable to the American people.
00:06:13.000He's a, as murderous a dictator as Hitler.
00:06:17.000Actually, what he did in Ukraine in the 1930s, one of the most barbaric things in human history.
00:06:22.000He starved to death a population that was essentially in Kansas growing wheat so that he could, he could take all the peasants in Russia and put them in factories.
00:06:31.000So they, you know, the collectivization.
00:06:34.000That's the history of the 20th century.
00:06:36.000The 20th century is the most barbaric dark age in the history of man.
00:06:40.000More people murdered, more people slaughtered.
00:07:08.000That's what this great awakening is about is for you.
00:07:10.000Once you see it, once the American people become energized, like in the revolution and in the Civil War, in World War II, we'll pivot and get this thing right.
00:07:20.000But it's going to take, it's going to be a lot.
00:07:22.000It's going to be a great day for everybody that served this country in all the battlefields of Korea and Vietnam, World War II, the Gulf War, all the special forces operation, the folks that were there in Beirut in 83, all of it in Iraq and Afghanistan.
00:07:36.000In Afghanistan, these endless, endless, endless wars.
00:07:45.000When the American people think of military activity right now, you know, the first thing you think of is it's not about the heroism and valor.
00:07:50.000Every one of these people on the show and all their colleagues and everything they did, the courage and the valor is unbelievable, and particularly an all-volunteer force.
00:07:59.000These people all volunteered for this.
00:08:06.000I mean, given what's happened in the Middle East today, how do you go over to Section 60?
00:08:11.000Not the Cheneys and not the phonies that allowed that to happen.
00:08:16.000I'm talking about the good people, the people that have made an impact, the people like Joe Kent, that, hey, we can't have these continual wars.
00:08:27.000The first thing is to take political power to make sure this can't happen again and to make sure these same elites that do this over and over and over again are turfed out.
00:08:37.000That they're not going to do it to another generation.
00:08:40.000They're the ones that got America on the verge of bankruptcy.
00:08:45.000I've worked on enough bankruptcies in my life as an investment banker to tell you this is stone-cold bankrupt.
00:08:51.000We didn't have the magic Federal Reserve note that everybody has to use to transact, whether it's a drug deal or given to a charity in any part of the world.
00:09:00.000If you didn't have that as a prime reserve currency, we would be like Argentina.
00:09:14.000But more importantly, talk to Birch today about why the Chinese Communist Party and all these other central banks of the BRICS that have all the resources.
00:09:20.000Why are they getting out of the dollar?
00:10:56.000Your book was amazing as a young officer.
00:10:59.000Are we in a better place now given all the sacrifice, you and your men, all the dead, all the casualties, all the sacrifice, all the broken families?
00:11:07.000Are we in a better place now because of the sacrifice and the courage and valor of your troops?
00:11:15.000In fact, let me just say, first of all, it's great to be back on The War Room.
00:11:18.000But second of all, watching all these guests, I'm so fired up because the only politician in my lifetime, and I mean this, that has honored his commitment to the troops has been Donald Trump.
00:11:31.000I mean Democrat, Republican leading up to these wars.
00:11:34.000These are the people that thought it was a great idea to depose autocrats all throughout the Middle East, which created – we went into Iraq, 20 years of failure in Iraq and Afghanistan.
00:11:44.000And again, I served in Afghanistan for 485 days, 16 months of heavy combat, hundreds of direct fire engagements, thousands of indirect fire engagements, 30 of my friends lost to the global war on terror.
00:11:56.000And what do we have to show for 20 years of war in Iraq and Afghanistan?
00:12:00.000I mean honestly, trillions of dollars in debt, thousands, tens of thousands of Americans wounded, hundreds of thousands of Americans suffering with the invisible wounds of war, thousands of Americans dead, millions of Afghans and Iraqis dead.
00:12:14.000We created a vacuum in Iraq which empowered one of our greatest foes in the region, Iran.
00:12:19.000Republicans and Democrats both did this, Steve, both.
00:12:22.000And I mean obviously the animated corpse that is Joe Biden in the White House obviously makes the situation 100 times worse.
00:12:28.000But what does it say about the soul of a country that is going after the one man in my entire life?
00:12:34.000Again, 20 years of war in Afghanistan. I'm 42 years old.
00:12:37.000So over half my life, all of – I've known my professional career is known of war in Afghanistan, right?
00:12:42.000We're going after the one guy that pursued peace?
00:12:46.000I mean think about that ridiculous question that Caitlin Collins asked President Trump during that CNN town hall.
00:12:52.000Like do you want Russia or Ukraine to win this war?
00:12:55.000Obviously an unfair question because it's – they're just clearly trying to pave the way for a third Russia collusion hoax.
00:13:01.000But President Trump rejected the premise of the question wholesale is I want people to stop dying.
00:13:06.000And that is how I measure leaders in today's day and age is how hard they pursue peace because I find that this country just stumbling and bumbling back into the same old mistakes that we made for the last 20 years.
00:13:20.000I mean we still have Americans trapped in certain countries even in Afghanistan and we're bumbling our way back into Ukraine and escalating conflicts in the Middle East the likes of which that hardly any American truly understands how bad it will really get.
00:13:32.000And so I know that was a long answer to a very simple question.
00:13:36.000But no, we are not better off today because – and politicians, both Democrats and Republicans are just throwing the sacrifice away and it just makes me so mad.
00:13:44.000Do you get concerned when you see as disunited as they are and they're all at each other's throats in Riyadh for – they have an emergency Arab League summit and you got the Turks show up, the Persians show up, the Egyptians show up, all the Gulf Emirates show up and they say we're united and the red line is Jerusalem.
00:14:03.000Does that cause you a level of concern?
00:14:05.000Absolutely it does because Americans doesn't seem like they've woken up to the threat and you talked about it yourself.
00:14:12.00010 million migrants coming into this country over the last three years under President Trump, four years of his presidency, 435,000.
00:14:19.000So if you think that leadership doesn't matter and that, you know, electing the right leaders doesn't matter, it does.
00:14:26.000And we've got to elect President Trump in 2024 because the soul of this country is on the line and everything is on the line.
00:14:33.000So he's the guy that can turn the ship around because he's already done it.
00:14:42.000We've got Captain Banner from the 101st.
00:14:44.000We've got Petty Officer 2nd Class Tage Gill from the Navy SEAL, SEAL Team 5, all next in the world.
00:15:01.000You should choose an air purifier like your life depends on it because it just might.
00:15:08.000More than 35,000 wildfires have devastated the U.S. this year.
00:15:12.000The toxins and particles in wildfire smoke can penetrate our lungs and threaten our health.
00:15:18.000That's why EnviroClean's developed military-grade air purification for your home.
00:15:23.000And they just announced their biggest sale of the year.
00:15:26.000Save a massive 30% off during their Labor Day sale.
00:15:30.000EnviroClean's is specifically designed to wipe out airborne chemicals and viruses known to cause illness, allergies and difficulty breathing.
00:15:38.000Even toxic gases and particles found in wildfire smoke are no match for EnviroClean's.
00:15:44.000That's why the Department of Defense chose EnviroClean's to protect the air on board our Navy combatants.
00:15:51.000EnviroClean's comes with a free professional air quality monitor so you know your family's breathing purified air.
00:15:58.000Now's the time to save 30% off your air purification unit.
00:16:03.000Get the free air quality monitor and fast free shipping.
00:16:43.000You were 485 days of continuous combat in Afghanistan?
00:16:47.000Yeah, 485 days and somehow, you know, I could probably vote in their elections and they're probably more secure than the elections that we have here.
00:16:54.000But you can get Outlaw Platoon anywhere books are sold.
00:16:58.000And I just started a new show on Rumble.
00:17:00.000So I'm over, I got booted off of YouTube real quickly, but I'm on Rumble.
00:17:03.000So go over to Rumble at Sean Parnell USA or I've got a Sean Parnell on my show is Battleground Live.
00:17:16.000No, your look, your experience in that book should be read.
00:17:21.000I mean, it's amazing what you got, what American troops went through.
00:17:25.000I don't think people, you know, because I think the thing happened in such a blur in the mainstream media didn't cover it.
00:17:31.000That's why the voices of veterans need to come to the forefront.
00:17:35.000Now we're at the early stages of the kinetic part of the third world war.
00:17:39.000We've been at the Chinese Communist Party has been at under stricture warfare for us for years.
00:17:43.000Veterans, not just to stick up for veterans in the VA and all the great philanthropic work.
00:17:49.000But now we need the veterans to step up to the plate and be the leader of this movement.
00:17:53.000You guys got to be the leaders of this movement to make sure that we don't get sucked into, you know, a situation like the guns of August where we're just sucked into another global conflict.
00:18:05.000I mean, look, I mean, when Americans don't realize.
00:18:07.000Your voice is going to be at the forefront of that.
00:18:11.000What Americans should know and the war room posse should know the war college, their generals or our strategic level leaders just released a report saying that in a conventional fight, which is where the America is headed, will sustain 3600 casualties a week.
00:18:24.000And in two weeks, a clip, both Iraq and Afghanistan.
00:18:26.000And just released a report saying that the all volunteer force is completely obsolete.
00:18:31.000So what does that mean going forward in a fight in Ukraine against a potential Russian horde and an asymmetric threat in the Middle East?
00:18:38.000It means that your son or daughter could be called up to fight at a moment's notice, drafted or conscripted into a force.
00:18:45.000If you've got a Ukrainian flag in your bio, do you support the war that much that you're willing to send your own son and daughter to die?
00:20:29.000We should be treating our veterans with better care than they deserve it for everything that they've given.
00:20:36.000And as we've seen from the guests this morning on the show, we took an oath of office as veterans when we were on active duty in service to support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic.
00:20:51.000And as you've seen from every guest on the show this morning, that oath did not just end when we hung up our uniform.
00:20:58.000We have continued to honor that oath out of uniform and we will continue to fight because we gave so much for this country during our service and we will continue to do so because we do not want to see the country go down in shambles.
00:21:14.000These young men and women volunteered.
00:21:18.000Captain Bannon, what's your social media?
00:22:56.000And Biden's going to be the supplicant.
00:22:58.000He's going to kiss Xi's ass on Wednesday in San Francisco.
00:23:01.000And we're allowing him to meet because the Republican Party and McCarthy specifically didn't put forward the evidence that shows he took direct payments from senior intelligence assets at the Chinese energy company that would block him from ever sitting down with a Chinese official.
00:23:19.000Tej, you started the coffee company as a veteran to make something of your life going forward, given all the sacrifice.
00:23:26.000When you talked to all your buddies and men you fought with, did they think, as a veteran, given everything you guys achieved, did they think it was worth it?
00:23:48.000But now it seems like what we did was for nothing because the politicians have thrown it all away, one under Obama, and then it's 100x under Biden what's going on.
00:23:59.000The whole, like I was talking about earlier, the whole Middle East is basically on fire.
00:24:04.000Everything that we did over there has been undone.
00:24:07.000Everything Trump did over there has been undone.
00:27:04.000We also have a very special guest on the other side.
00:27:06.000I've got the top combat historian, Patrick K. O'Donnell.
00:27:10.000That was an in-bed with the Marines in Fallujah and wrote an incredible book.
00:27:13.000And then we've got one of the finest, not the finest, documentary filmmaker, Michael Pack,
00:27:18.000who was part of the Trump administration, is going to join me about his film, The Last 600 Meters,
00:27:24.000which we're going to talk about a very special premiere of it and a very special potential viewing.
00:27:30.000I want to make sure everybody goes to birchgold.com slash Bannon right now.
00:27:35.000The End of the Dollar Empire is four installments all free that you understand the politics of currency and how important currency is in the world economy,
00:27:46.000particularly the United States dollar.
00:27:48.000You also start to understand the issues with this massive debt we have and why it will never be paid off, how it's bringing down this country.
00:27:55.000Most importantly, you understand why the Chinese Communist Party and the BRICS nation are buying gold at record rates in 22 and 23.
00:28:03.000And ask the folks, Philip Patrick and the team over there, explain that one to me.
00:28:07.000Why are we focused on a central bank digital currency and our mortal enemies, the existential threat to the American Republic,
00:28:15.000besides the administrative and deep state, or buying gold at record rates?
00:29:59.000I want to know where people get it because if you want to understand even a scintilla,
00:30:03.000what's happening in Gaza, this book you've got to read.
00:30:06.000Patrick, give me the book and where do people get it?
00:30:10.000One, shoulder to shoulder with the Marines that were in Fallujah.
00:30:14.000And I was embedded combat historian, civilian, volunteer, fought house to house with the Marine Corps.
00:30:22.000It's on the commandant's reading list as required reading for the Marine Corps.
00:30:26.000Along with another book I have, Give Me Tomorrow, which is on the Korean War.
00:30:29.000Veterans of George Company 3-1, same unit that was in Fallujah.
00:30:33.000And the platoon I was in had some of the highest casualties of the battle.
00:30:39.000We had over five that were killed in action, including one of the Marines that I mortally wounded that I pulled out of an ambush with Chechens that we're involved with.
00:31:38.000I barely survived being there in Fallujah.
00:31:43.000I was there from the very beginning of the battle with Marine recon, conducting shaping operations, feints, et cetera, special operations, and then went in with the assault force.
00:31:57.000And, well, it strengthened my faith for one.
00:32:02.000I was not a, I went to many years of Catholic school, but my faith was incredibly strengthened by that experience.
00:32:10.000And I felt, I wasn't afraid in many ways.
00:32:15.000I had a guiding hand that saved my life many times that I can't explain to this day.
00:32:20.000But I do have faith from that experience that really changed me.
00:32:27.000And also the brotherhood of the men that I was with in that battle.
00:32:33.000And the confidence that I saw in the strength and resilience of those Marines was incredible, Steve.
00:32:42.000We're talking about the next greatest generation men that would go from one house to another and not quit.
00:33:18.000It's at Combat Historian on X or Twitter, as well as Gitter.
00:33:23.000And then my website, PatrickKO'Donnell.com.
00:33:26.000And I'm just super thrilled that I just finished another book on the Civil War called The Unvanquished, which I'm extremely proud of after six years of intense research.
00:35:27.000He grabs Marines nearby, takes them in with him, begins to develop the situation inside the house.
00:35:34.000And in the process of maneuvering to an empty room, engages and kills a man at close quarters.
00:35:41.000And is wounded in the process by an enemy above him.
00:35:46.000And in fact, he and his partner, his buddy, Lance Corporal Nichols, both are stitched down their legs with AK-47 fire.
00:35:55.000These guys are in a very good position, the enemy.
00:35:59.000There was not a very easy way to get to them.
00:36:03.000And at the same time, all of these rooms, this structure is very solid.
00:36:09.000You know, the construction in Iraq is very sturdy.
00:36:13.000Steel rebar, reinforced concrete, and sometimes triple layer brick.
00:36:18.000You couldn't shoot a missile through some of these walls.
00:36:21.000And so we couldn't bring any heavy weapons to bear.
00:36:24.000Couldn't bring any grenades to bear because we had too many of our own men wounded on the inside.
00:36:28.000So basically, all we could use was our hands and our guns.
00:36:33.000So another Marine, PFC Boswood and myself, started taking this sledgehammer to the steel grate of this window.
00:36:42.000So the lieutenant goes in without their protective vests and plates on, et cetera, through the bars of a window that they managed to pull aside.
00:36:54.000This all in extremis, there's firing going on, there are grenades being thrown in the house.
00:37:00.000There's groups of Marines separated and trapped by this very effective defense scheme.
00:39:47.000The principal funder was the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.
00:39:51.000And as you know, Steve, I've made 15 films that have all been nationally broadcast on public television over the last several decades.
00:40:01.000This one, which they actually mainly funded, is the first they ever turned down.
00:40:06.000And PBS turned it down because, in their mind, it was too pro-military.
00:40:11.000And they accused me of using some sort of central casting bias to get these great Marines like an army and soldiers and airmen like Jesse Grapes.
00:41:26.000You were making a movie about how technology had changed war in the 21st century.
00:41:31.000And you came from your research to understand we're back to the most brutal type of war door to door, room by room with men having to put their lives on the line every day.
00:42:52.000This is just people looking into a camera and telling you exactly what went on in the hand to hand combat of Fallujah, Najaf and second Fallujah.
00:43:02.000It will this film will change you will change your perspective of what the military, the voluntary military really goes through the real story from their own from their own words.
00:43:14.000We're going to premiere it this afternoon.
00:43:16.000We're going to come back with Michael Pack, the director, in a moment to talk to you about how you can get it and how you can get in a conversation with Stephen K. Bannett and Michael Pack about it.
00:43:47.000I got an emergency medication kit from them.
00:43:50.000The FDA just declared a global shortage of medication and warned that critical antibiotics are in extreme short supply across the United States.
00:43:59.000But you know that because you're a viewer or listener of the show.
00:44:03.000Now, here's the action you can take to correct.
00:44:06.000Do yourself and your family a favor and get your Jace case right now.
00:44:11.000It's a pack of five prescription antibiotics you'll have on hand for common emergencies.
00:44:22.000Take a few minutes and fill out the form.
00:44:25.000Your information will be reviewed by a board certified physician and your medication will be dispensed by a licensed pharmacy at a fraction of the regular cost.
00:44:36.000You'll be glad you have the Jace case.
00:48:49.000Michael Pack, thank you for making this film and thank you for hanging in there.
00:48:54.000This film has got to be seen more than ever today.
00:48:56.000And you're right with what's happening in Gaza.
00:48:58.000If you want to see what the IDF is going through in Gaza, you look at what the Marines, the finest, most heroic fighting force in the history of mankind.
00:49:07.000The United States Marine Corps, what they went through in Second Fallujah is unbelievable.
00:49:12.000You'll see it all on the last 600 meters.
00:49:14.000A film directed by Michael Pack, the great documentary filmmaker.
00:49:19.000Michael, where do they go to your company to get all your films?
