HEME YJAM BATANAM BATANAM BATANAM BATANAM BATANAM
00:16:18.940
When you look at the crowds today, you have maybe five, six thousand people here.
00:16:42.160
On the streets yesterday, a million people, a million Iranians in the street for the Ayatollah Khomeini.
00:16:52.060
And most of the people don't say anything because they are afraid.
00:16:57.060
They are in silence, you know, they don't say anything.
0.67
00:17:01.060
Is this the silent majority of Iran out here now?
0.98
00:17:07.060
Yes, Shah, Shah, Shah, Shah, Shah, Shah, Shah, Shah, Shah, Shah, Shah, Shah, Shah, Shah, Shah, Shah, Shah, Shah, Shah, Shah, Shah, Shah.
00:17:22.060
Why do you want the Shah? Why does she want the Shah?
00:18:15.060
یرانی غیرت و حساس داره جلوش واسی قصاص داره دودل سبهلوی و شاهداره واسیتی همین فشار داره همه جابو اتحاده
00:20:07.640
the government of Iran. It is a hostile occupying force that's hijacked our homeland. After
0.99
00:20:17.140
invading five neighboring countries and sowing chaos across the region, this regime has invaded
0.82
00:20:25.120
Iran itself using foreign terrorists, Hezbollah fighters, Iraqi militias, and other mercenaries
0.67
00:20:42.100
This is foreign occupation wearing clerical robes.
0.62
00:20:47.600
Just as Saddam Hussein drowned the marshes in blood, and Bashar al-Assad turned battle
0.73
00:20:52.800
bombs on his own children, Ali Khamenei and his thugs have committed mass crimes against
0.68
00:20:59.900
Iranian people and against all of humanity. And just like those other
0.90
00:21:06.320
tyrannies, the Islamic Republic will fall. Not if, but when. The world must hear
0.99
00:21:16.520
this clearly. The battle in Iran today is not between reform and revolution. It is
00:21:24.380
between occupation and liberation. And the Iranian people have already chosen their side.
0.99
00:21:32.660
Their heads are bloodied but unbowed. Yet the cost has been heartbreaking. The people
1.00
00:21:42.080
of Iran are being slaughtered in the streets and in their homes by a regime that shows
0.85
00:21:47.560
no mercy. More than 12,000 Iranians were massacred in 48 hours, one murder every
0.98
00:21:57.560
14 seconds. Khamenei's killers even hunted the wounded protesters in
00:22:03.380
hospitals and executed them in cold blood. The regime collected piles of
00:22:11.680
bodies with dump trucks and forced worried families to search unlabeled
00:22:16.840
body bags they refused to return bodies for burial without payment for the cost
00:22:23.200
of the bullets that killed their loved ones and where a family cannot pay up to
00:22:29.200
seven thousand several thousand dollars and most of them can't they bury the
00:22:34.540
dead in unmarked mass graves and despite the lies you're hearing from the
00:22:41.660
regime its bloodlust has not diminished the slaughter has not stopped my brave
00:22:49.640
competitors still holding the line with their broken bodies but unbreakable will
0.98
00:22:55.540
need your urgent help right now make no mistake however the Islamic Republic is
00:23:05.600
close to collapse. Ali Khamenei and his thugs know this. That's why they are
00:23:12.620
lashing out like a wounded animal, desperate to cling to power. The people
00:23:20.420
have not retreated. Their determination has made one thing clear. They are not
00:23:26.420
merely rejecting this regime, they are demanding a credible new path forward.
00:23:33.280
they have called for me to lead the bond between me and the Iranian people is not
00:23:41.040
new it's been with me since birth and it cannot be broken even in exile I pledged
00:28:46.380
When I'mül z manager, get up your favor now
0.98
00:28:56.960
When I'm your father, I got lifted my cima
0.99
00:29:10.840
Let me tell you a story about a lion that came from the mountains.
00:29:35.700
Our lion, the lion of freedom, can only roam free and strong.
00:29:38.920
But one day, some 47 years ago, liberal socialists had different plans.
00:29:43.660
Free health care and free speech was not good enough for them.
00:29:51.860
Believing a bloodthirsty vulture is better than a majestic lion.
0.85
00:29:56.500
The vulture placed his claws on the Koran, swearing he was God sent.
00:30:00.080
Both liberal socialists and religion fanatics joined forces, believed he's the Messiah.
00:30:04.000
The vulture promised them prosperity, but instead took their dignity,
00:30:07.600
stole all their resources to sponsor terror and disconnected them from the world living our nation
00:30:12.520
poor isolated and thirsty for water but now our lion is back and he's bringing help with him
00:30:17.640

00:54:27.460
i just had to announce that thank you no that's that's really really important so let's go to
00:54:31.940
president trump i don't know what he's talking about but we'll see i mean we'll see if it's
00:54:35.380
relevant right um yes and if anyone knows what what he's talking about let us know as well
00:54:46.660
wow a lot of people that's a new record we set a record every time well thank you very much for
00:54:54.900
being here the supreme court's ruling on tariffs is deeply disappointing and i'm ashamed of
00:55:05.380
Certain members of the court are absolutely ashamed for not having the courage to do what's right for our country.
00:55:13.240
I'd like to thank and congratulate Justices Thomas, Alito, and Kavanaugh.
00:55:19.160
Okay, so I think he's just speaking about tariffs.
00:55:22.860
If someone is able to maybe keep an eye and let us know if there's a Q&A portion or if he talks about Iran, let us know.
00:55:35.120
and and we'll tune in but if it's just about tariffs then um we won't play the whole thing
00:55:41.040
because we have a lot of news and updates and info to get to um we're still doing our armin power
00:55:48.960
hour at 2 p.m though so 2 p.m it's the armin i mean we could even start earlier if you want we
00:55:53.840
could go from now until like three o'clock it's up to you but there is there's that would be too much
0.92
00:56:02.080
power that would be too much power that would be too much armin people i don't think so you can
00:56:08.640
never have too much armin you can never have too much armin but thank you why don't we start with
0.92
00:56:16.480
uh the message from his royal highness king of halavi yes i was gonna say that a nail bunny just
00:56:22.400
confirmed that she's going to be watching the white house and she will let us know in case
00:56:28.080
anything important thank you thank you so much nail bunny okay so let's go to this one this is
00:56:35.280
actually this is actually a very important message and it's also in line with the messaging of iran
00:56:41.360
revolution live regarding not being anti-muslim even though me and goldie disagree with islam
00:56:50.080
we don't want to we want to have unity with iranian muslims who are anti-islamic republic
00:56:57.360
our disagreement over islam is a disagreement that we have with them but we they are our iranian
0.82
00:57:04.160
compatriots and they are we are in the same battle iranian muslims who are against islamic republic
00:57:11.040
and we are in the same battle with them and so this is a very important message of unity
0.58
00:57:15.440
with iranian muslims who are against the regime listen and when i say i'm anti-islam like i'm
0.70
00:57:21.200
anti-islam in the government like i'm anti-political islam like i don't want islam anywhere near
0.50
00:57:26.560
government or government institutions or you know in any way shape or form um informing anything
0.94
00:57:33.040
relating to government or government policy um or like i don't want it in schools i don't want
1.00
00:57:37.520
it in public places i think religion should be private especially islam and just keep it at home
0.99
00:57:42.560
that's that's you know you i know your your opinion is a little different but that's me
0.95
00:57:46.880
when i say i'm anti-islam it's like anti-islam in the government so my position okay i mean everybody
00:57:52.960
has different positions right so my position is that i'm anti-islam
00:57:58.960
as a whole not just in government but when i but i'm not anti-muslim and when i meet a muslim
0.99
00:58:05.600
if they are they're good decent people my disagreement with islam is just a disagreement
0.99
00:58:11.680
and if they're good decent people i could get along with them but i am as i'm against islam
0.99
00:58:16.560
everywhere but i don't see that as a reason for me to be enemies of muslims i just have a
00:58:21.840
disagreement with them that's how i see it yeah that's that's an excellent point excellent way
0.99
00:58:28.400
of looking at it right so okay did you want to all right let me oh yeah i have it you want me to read
00:58:36.000
it or do you want to read it people want to hear you i think well i was thinking i was thinking we
00:58:41.200
could put it in chat gpt and have the um the very distinguished and dignified uh british voice read
00:58:48.240
it what do you think well i think people prefer your voice over the shakespearean chat gpt but
00:58:58.240
we'll see but okay okay what do you guys prefer i think people like you reading that i think you do
00:59:06.640
a good job when it comes to adding you know the right emotions when i see that okay all right
00:59:11.920
okay okay i'll read it i'll read it um so his royal highness writes my devout shia compatriots
00:59:19.360
from the very first day the islamic republic seized power in your name and in the name of
00:59:23.920
your religion and to this day it has produced nothing but poverty misery and crimes against
1.00
00:59:29.360
humanity you yourselves witnessed during the national lion and sun revolution as in the
0.99
00:59:37.200
other uprisings of recent years that the islamic republic and ali khamenei personally in the name
0.80
00:59:43.520
of religion and with the support of clerics refrained from no crime from shooting innocent
00:59:49.200
citizens with live ammunition including children and school students to delivering final shots to
00:59:56.080
the wounded in hospitals and from torture murder and rape of detainees all of this has been and
0.92
01:00:06.400
continues to be done in the name of Shia Islam. They have turned mosques into bases of repression,
0.96
01:00:13.760
chant Heydar Heydar while aiming at their fellow countrymen's heads and perform their prayers on
01:00:20.800
blood-soaked prayer rugs. For those of you guys who've been watching Iran Revolution Live for a
01:00:26.960
while now, you'll understand all these references, right? We've shown you examples of how they've
01:00:32.400
turned mosques into bases of repression we've explained hey dad hey dad you know and the
0.92
01:00:37.440
religious significance there while they're shooting iranians um and of course how they pray
0.53
01:00:44.880
the shia clergy who consider themselves the custodians of the faith have failed this historic
0.76
01:00:50.400
test whether by actively participating in or remaining silent in the face of these crimes
0.60
01:00:57.200
my message to faithful shia who oppose the vilayata faqih and political islam is this so
01:01:04.920
vilayata faqih means um guardianship of the juristic council or something basically basically
01:01:12.560
vilayata faqih um if i want to sum it up it basically means that the the dictator khamenei
01:01:36.140
that you can't rule until the Mahdi is back.
0.95
01:01:39.100
But Khomeini invented this idea of al-at-faghi,
0.90
01:01:50.580
before he comes out from his hiding right so that's what it means that they could we don't
01:01:56.280
have to wait for the mahdi to come back we could rule in his stead until he comes back that's what
01:02:00.820
that means and this was basically created uh as a way for the islamic regime to you know expand
0.77
01:02:06.100
and colonize right that's why there's a lot of non-iranian um shia muslims who support the
01:02:11.120
islamic regime right like um all those like weird uh like uk pakistanis like like bushra sheikh and
01:02:16.940
others um or like you know the the afghan radicals or you know like the the proxy groups in iraq
0.97
01:02:23.980
right or even like in um in southern yemen the houthis right because they've they've created
01:02:29.180
this concept of pan-islamism that uh goes beyond the concept of nation states right there's no
0.95
01:02:36.220
there's no borders anymore it's all they're all muslims and that goes back to what khomeini said
0.96
01:02:41.100
sorry what khomeini said the initial like the supreme dictator the founder of the regime
1.00
01:02:46.060
when he came back to iran he actually said we don't want patriots we want muslims patriotism
01:02:51.500
is the enemy of iran uh so all sorry patriotism is the enemy of islam so all that goes into the
0.97
01:02:57.500
concept of yeah indian cashmere shias as well yeah yeah indian bangladeshi all of the all the shias
01:03:04.780
right um so there are some shias who disagree with the velayat concept and they think khomeini's
01:03:12.540
version of shia islam is not real shia islam and the most famous one is ayatollah sistani in iraq
01:03:19.980
so they don't believe they're shia they don't believe in but they're shia like ayatollah sistani
01:03:25.820
for example yeah yeah but but the ones the ones who what i'm saying is the ones who
01:03:32.140
support khamenei or sorry khamenei whatever that's because of this this pan-islamism anyway
01:03:39.260
you're correct i was just going to add something and that's really important as well because you're
01:03:43.180
right but and but what you're saying is really important because it ties into the message here
01:03:48.700
right because the king just said my message to faithful shia who oppose the belayata faqi and
01:03:54.700
political islam right exactly this is his message to the shia muslims who oppose the concept of
01:04:01.100
and oppose the concept of political islam if you think shia muslims who believe in secularism which
01:04:10.140
we consider to be our allies because they believe even though we might disagree with their religious
0.96
01:04:15.020
beliefs the fact that they believe that islam should stay out of government keep makes our
0.88
01:04:19.580
makes them our allies yeah of course yeah so that's his message to them if you care about
01:04:26.860
the faith and wish in the future iran to practice your religious rights peacefully in a non-political
01:04:35.100
and individual manner then stand at the forefront of the struggle against this illegitimate regime
01:04:40.700
and its criminal leaders reclaim your religion and faith from the false prophet of our time
0.79
01:04:46.780
do not allow the crimes of the islamic republic and the terrorist islamic revolutionary guard
0.97
01:04:51.980
core to be written in the name of your religion today a large number of the devout are already in
0.77
01:04:58.220
the trenches fighting the islamic republic to those who have not yet joined the sacred struggle
01:05:03.820
i urge you before it's too late to stand alongside your sunni brothers and sisters and the followers
01:05:09.420
of other religions denominations and beliefs join the ocean that is the iranian nation and reclaim
0.97
01:05:16.060
your faith from the despot zahuk and his cohort zahuk again that's the that's the demon from
0.99
01:05:22.460
iranian mythology that had two snakes on his um shoulders and he had to eat brains every day he
0.99
01:05:29.260
had he had to eat the brains of um young iranians every day in order to stay alive so we call
0.97
01:05:34.380
khamenei zahuk because he's murdering young iranians every day this will better serve both
0.87
01:05:40.940
you personally and the future of shia islam and the islamic faith in iran wow long live iran is
01:05:52.860
so i uh by the way um i just want can i make a few points or before yeah there's no rush no 100
01:06:01.020
so so first of all i when i read this multiple times and i also we talked about it on the persian
01:06:10.460
channel like we went to a lot of details uh regarding this um i mentioned on the persian
01:06:17.260
live show that this was written very intelligently because it it's careful
01:06:26.300
not to suggest because princess of palabi knows a lot of iranias are
01:06:32.620
not just un-islamic but anti-islamic right so look at the very clever balancing
01:06:45.420
look at the very clever balance that he plays here he says that the islamic republic
0.77
01:06:53.500
is doing all of these crimes in the name of your religion right so some anti-islamic republic
0.83
01:07:00.860
anti-islamic iranians might look at this and say well all of these is in accordance to islam anyways
0.60
01:07:09.500
right like it's according to islam like are we suggesting that islam doesn't teach these
01:07:15.340
but but if you read it it doesn't suggest that it's actually being it's actually describing
01:07:24.380
what's happening without making a claim whether it's one way or another like there is no statement
01:07:32.620
here with regards to whether what islamic republic is doing is or is not in accordance to islam
01:07:41.660
it's written in a way to give the proper warning to iranian muslims that this is being done in the
01:07:49.900
name of your religion without it saying whether it is or it's not in your religion so basically
01:07:56.780
what princes of palavi needs to do is to keep us united and this is challenging because some
01:08:02.540
iranians are muslim some iranians are not muslim and some iranians are very very anti-islamic
01:08:09.980
how do i send this message out there to keep them all united on their fight against islamic republic
0.59
01:08:18.860
and remember this message was sent out because the islamic republic is trying to get the anti-islamic
0.61
01:08:26.300
republic muslims to be afraid of this revolution so the islamic republic is trying to put propaganda
01:08:33.100
out there that we like people like us me and goldie for example goldie and i who are against
01:08:38.620
islamic republic we are once islamic republic is over we're going to be hunting down muslims or
0.87
01:08:44.780
something like that we're going to come for the muslims inside iran so the islamic republic is
0.96
01:08:49.100
trying to scare muslims and the islamic republic is also trying to secretly infiltrate into the
0.94
01:08:57.420
opposition and encourage some of us to become very aggressively anti-muslim so they could use
0.81
01:09:06.380
that as a way to scare iranian muslims to not join princes of alavi and not join the opposition
01:09:12.780
And this was picking up just before this was posted.
01:09:17.720
And Princesa Pahlavi neutralized, destroyed that propaganda plan by the Islamic Republic,
01:09:23.620
but by posting this there, because we don't want to scare our Muslims who are fighting.
01:09:28.540
Remember, guys, the 40,000 people who died in Iran, many of these people were Muslim.
01:09:34.260
The people who were in the streets fighting against the Islamic Republic, many of them were Muslim.
0.53
01:09:39.120
Okay, so it's non-Muslims, Muslims, anti-Islamic people fighting side by side next to each other against the Islamic Republic.
01:09:49.500
Some of them have pro-Islamic positions, some of them have neutral, some of them have anti-Islamic positions.
01:09:54.760
But they still are united against the Islamic Republic.
0.87
01:09:57.880
And that's the unity that the Islamic Republic is trying to destroy.
0.94
01:10:01.960
And given right before this post by Prince of the Pallavi, it was getting very tense.
0.96
01:10:07.500
Some people were messaging, putting out messaging out there that could have been seen as harmful, could have alienated our Muslim allies in this fight.
01:10:18.440
So he put this out there, but he had to write this in a way where us anti-Islamic people don't get like think like, well, this is our revolution too.
01:10:29.320
Yeah, sure. Muslims are there, but we are there too.
01:10:35.660
But that's why I think it was very cleverly written, because we have been telling Iranian Muslims on the Persian side that, guys, you should be against the Islamic Republic more than even us anti-Islamic people.
0.79
01:10:51.800
Because the reason why so many Iranians are now against Islam is because of the Islamic Republic.
0.93
01:10:57.700
So if you want that to stop, if you want to just keep the remaining support that you have for Islam to stay there, then you should want the Islamic Republic to be toppled even before we want.
0.78
01:11:11.020
Because the only reason why our numbers are so high, the anti-Islamic Iranians are so high, is because of the Islamic Republic.
0.92
01:11:17.980
There hasn't been a greater force than the Islamic Republic when it comes to destroying Islam.
01:11:24.100
So if you want to save your Islam, you should want to get rid of the Islamic Republic.
1.00
01:11:29.880
And that's what Princess Apalavi is saying here as well.
0.67
01:11:32.760
And it doesn't matter if you think that, well, what the Islamic Republic is doing is true Islam.
0.85
01:11:38.060
It doesn't matter if we think that or if we against that.
0.82
01:11:41.300
What Princess Apalavi is saying, if you're one of those Muslims who thinks that this is wrong and this is not real Islam, by the way, it is.
0.97
01:11:48.580
But if you're one of those Muslims who thinks that, well, Islamic Republic is doing all of these crimes in the name of Islam.
0.99
01:12:03.280
The other thing I wanted to add is that I think this is also...
01:12:13.640
um it's it's also you know like he's basically saying to them you know join join the Iranian
01:12:20.440
people and be a part of us right because we're all you know we're different religions but we're
0.97
01:12:26.000
all united as Iranians and he's you know we we've all seen the very angry videos of you know Iranians
0.72
01:12:34.040
who are saying you know we're no longer Muslim we're gonna kick Islam out of the country like
0.61
01:12:39.780
know we're gonna right because because iranians like these are iranians and occupied iran right
0.75
01:12:44.660
um they're very very upset they're very upset they're heartbroken so it's interesting that
01:12:51.220
he also says if you care about your faith and wish in the future iran to practice your religious
01:12:58.180
rights peacefully in a non-political and individual manner then stand at the forefront of the struggle
01:13:04.740
against this illegitimate regime and its criminal leaders we have a lot of healing to do as a nation
01:13:11.460
especially when it comes to um shia islam and shia muslims um so i do hope that the shia muslims
01:13:20.660
take this seriously um and join our side because this this i think this is the first step towards
01:13:27.060
um towards healing as a nation but they have to be on our side and he's making it very clear to
01:13:32.900
of them he's saying you know if you want to practice your faith right like um if you want
01:13:39.280
to be accepted by everyone else you know join us join us now while you still can type of thing
01:13:44.180
right so it's not it's not a threat it's more just like you know it's it's it's basically saying you
01:13:50.460
know we have to start healing and the first step towards healing is by you know being united against
0.86
01:13:57.180
the islamic regime and being united against political islam right and another way i don't
01:14:04.140
know what do you think about this goldie another way i like to describe it is that i'm paid i'm
01:14:08.780
anti-islamic but i'm patriotic first anti-islamic second and if you're an iranian muslim what i hear
01:14:17.180
first is that you're iranian and if you're iranian then i want the i want my iran to be the best not
01:14:25.820
just for non-muslims but for every single muslim iranian because you're iranian and i care more
01:14:32.860
about the fact that you're iranian and iran should be an iran that is works for you it should be safe
01:14:38.220
for you it should be prosperous for you it should be secure for you a prosperous iran is an iran
01:14:44.700
that works for every iranian citizen including iranian muslims and my bond with you over the
01:14:51.180
fact that your iranian is stronger than the disagreement that we have over islam
01:14:58.540
i i 100 agree with you i think love is stronger than hate and i'm 100 on board like i'm iranian
01:15:06.540
first and i'll always be iranian first and so for me an iranian is an iranian is an iranian
01:15:13.820
regardless of um religion or you know anything else like if you're Iranian that's then you know
01:15:21.240
you're that that's all that matters to me so I 100% um agree with what you're saying
0.87
01:15:28.480
um the king just put out a new message oh my god um I'm just I'm just posting
01:15:35.580
the translated version here and then it's a video um okay let me just
01:15:46.460
yeah he just put this out like a few minutes ago um
01:15:53.660
why do we just while you do that i just want to tell people i'm i'm still going to by the way this
01:15:58.140
does it guys this doesn't mean that i'm not going to be fighting islam i'm going to dedicate my
01:16:03.100
entire life into trying to rid islam but with talking but not by being anti-muslim i'm going to
01:16:11.040
i'm going to fight for the right of muslims to advertise islam in my country but i should also
1.00
01:16:18.760
get the right to advertise against islam right so i'm going to do my best to try to get rid of islam
1.00
01:16:24.880
but not by forcing anybody or harming anybody or intimidating anybody just by talking and they
0.97
01:16:31.520
could talk in favor of islam while i talk in against islam what is this so he writes dear
01:16:37.760
compatriots abroad so this is a message to uh everyone outside of iran the image you displayed
01:16:44.580
at the global day of action gatherings around the world was the true image of iran a magnificent
01:16:50.340
image of peace seeking culture civilization order and the rule of law of the iranian people
01:16:56.820
in stark contrast to the terrorism, backwardness, violence, chaos-seeking, and extremism of the
0.92
01:17:04.220
Islamic Republic. In the days and weeks ahead, as our compatriots in Iran await global help,
0.92
01:17:11.080
our duty is to ensure that this help will arrive. Therefore, your message to the politicians and
01:17:18.480
decision makers of your host countries is very clear. Those who obstruct help from reaching the
01:17:25.240
people of Iran will not have the vote and support of the large Iranian diaspora community neither
01:17:32.720
today nor in the future. Let's go. I was waiting for this because this is going to help me with
0.99
01:17:41.640
my petition. You talked about this before this. You mentioned this. You said that we should be
01:17:47.960
acting like a bloc. You know, just like, yeah, I think you, I remember you referring to this
01:17:53.300
earlier yeah yeah okay okay i said that now that the world has seen that you know how many we are
01:17:59.180
we should we can and should be acting as a voting bloc um and we should be we should be um allying
01:18:06.500
ourselves with um the jewish communities and the the patriots in various communities so for example
01:18:13.300
um i mean iranians were already allied uh with with um americans especially for like the mega
01:18:20.720
movement, Americans just didn't really know. Americans just weren't aware that Iranians are
01:18:24.880
pretty much, you know, pro-President Trump. But this is amazing. Those who obstruct help from
01:18:30.440
reaching the people of Iran will not have the vote and support of the large diaspora community.
01:18:36.280
Iranian diaspora community, neither today nor in the future. I ask all of you to continue being
01:18:42.620
worthy representatives of the Iranian nation, determined and steadfast, purposeful and dignified,
01:18:49.240
Moving forward as you did on the global day of action, do not take your eyes off the main goal.
01:18:55.980
Avoid behaviors unworthy of the great Iranian nation.
01:18:59.660
And do not allow side issues and troublemakers to divert you from the path to victory.
0.79
01:20:23.240
And you will be able to keep in the peace of Iran.
01:20:32.240
We are a big nation that will come to Iran.
1.00
01:20:42.240
And I want you to not have a hope for the next generation.
1.00
01:20:48.240
We will come back to the end of the global divide.
01:20:53.920
We will move our way to the national summit.
0.83
01:20:59.600
läach are two stronger than them voted for the war.
01:21:17.080
I am welcome to you and I will provide you to be free to your humanity our country,
01:21:45.400
that they gave their loved ones to know that they are not alone.
01:21:50.400
And you don't have to be sure that Piroz is one of us.
01:22:10.400
Would you like to translate that, Armin? I think we should.
01:22:15.400
yes let's do that so um here let me let me send you the link okay
01:22:21.380
by the way there is a post by uh a poll by thomas missy that i think is a bit urgent is it okay if
01:22:31.900
i share that yeah go ahead go ahead okay okay all right so you don't need to ask me if something is
01:22:38.100
okay just do it oh my god because no because i want to make sure that i don't mess up the plan
01:22:44.160
you know it's communication okay that's fine the plan is we could just do whatever
01:22:51.280
okay okay i think it's good it's good to communicate right so thomas messy who's an
01:22:57.360
isolationist um who's against the united states um he's against israel and he's also against the
01:23:04.320
united states um attacking the islamic republic he put out a poll oh guys this is going under 50
01:23:11.920
We need your help. We need your help. This is urgent. There's only six hours left. We need you guys to respond yes to this poll. I'm going to put this in the chat. And guys, please answer yes.
01:23:26.480
he posted this and he's being very um sneaky here because he added i'll let me let me tell you what
01:23:33.280
the poll is okay so he said do you want a us-led war with iran he posted this uh design he designed
01:23:41.360
this poll in a way so that he get the highest amount of no's right so you can see that he put
01:23:48.080
for the like you if you guys have studied how polls work you could see that how this was designed so
01:23:53.920
So for the no, he included an explanation for why you should add no, but he didn't include that for the yes.
01:24:00.580
He did two types of tricks to try to get the most amount of no's.
01:24:04.520
By including an explanation for the no, for why you should be voting no, without putting that for the yes, but also by trying to divide the yes vote.
01:24:15.480
He added a third option saying attacking is not war.
01:24:18.920
So some people who might want to say yes, like if you add the 7% to this 49%, almost 50%, you would have a majority saying yes.
01:24:29.520
But he actually divided it like this so this doesn't become the majority.
01:24:35.840
But even though he did this, he thought he would get an overwhelming amount of no's.
01:24:41.280
But right now, we're a little bit under 50% yes.
01:24:46.300
and you need to you guys need to make sure that this poll doesn't work so i'm putting it in the
01:24:52.080
chat please go ahead and do two things first of all vote yes but also share this tweet quote
01:25:00.640
tweeted and tell people ask people to vote yes please so we need you to do this for us that would
01:25:07.540
be very nice thank you if you like this this is going to this is a big deal i mean people who
01:25:13.180
know thomas messi they know that this is a very big deal uh and he's trying to demonstrate that
01:25:19.160
most people are against this war so please try to make sure that this doesn't work out
01:25:23.280
um all right so let's go to here oh by the way goldie would you be able to
01:25:33.540
share that i'll wait for her to come back all right let me actually i put it in the i put it
01:25:39.380
the private chat sorry i just went to turn on the heat because it was getting no yeah yeah i have
01:25:44.020
that i'm talking about the thomas massey oh i did yeah i've i've already i've already voted on it
01:25:50.820
and i've i've retweeted it awesome thank you thank you all right so let's translate this
01:25:57.940
so my first message to my compatriots to my brave compatriots
01:26:11.640
to my brave compatriots inside iran so my first message is to them
01:26:27.940
that all over the world that the iranians united iranians all around the world are
01:26:39.300
are sending your message are basically amplifying your voice to the rest of the world
01:26:43.700
so our enemies are trying to show trying to claim that the iranian people are divided and
0.78
01:26:58.740
they're not they don't they don't have the same message this is this is an absolute lie
01:27:06.980
and the you iranian peoples in inside iran you have proven that oh goldie look at this guy
0.81
01:27:12.740
i didn't see this guy this guy is saluting well while he speaks i didn't notice that look at that
01:27:20.420
he's saluting the king while he's speaking he's looking amazing
01:27:30.020
and now now the second message to iranians outside of iran he's saying you demonstrated
01:27:37.300
to the whole world you demonstrated to the whole world
01:27:42.740
the way that the way that you behave the way when it comes to police the police forces so
01:27:50.040
basically he's referring to the all the all the flowers and all the you know the the smiles and
01:27:57.900
you know for all the way that the iranian people behave properly around the world he said he's
01:28:03.760
saying that we that you showed the whole world like it was extraordinary the way that you
01:28:12.720
you treated people next to you the way you treated the police the way you treated like
01:28:16.960
the rest of the world it was extraordinary like i i am from the bottom of my heart i am proud of all
01:28:27.480
of you saying unlike this this child killing suppressing regime you are the symbols of
01:28:55.540
a great civilization and in the free and in a free future in the future of iran in a free
01:29:09.480
tomorrow of iran you will prove you will prove to the world that we are a great nation
01:29:16.840
we are a great nation that that will take back our iran
01:29:25.640
so the people are chanting we are a great nation we will take back iran so that chant goes like
01:29:37.280
this guys that's a that's a chance uh that started by princess of palavi and now it's
01:29:46.820
that has turned into a very famous chant among Iranians.
01:29:50.160
The meaning is that we are a great nation.
0.90
01:29:58.720
So I want you, this is what I want from you.
1.00
01:30:16.820
basically saying don't just have hope believe it
01:30:21.800
this was guys i don't i have to explain the significance of this part okay he so he says
01:30:36.340
and now we are at the live at the phase in this revolution we are we have reached a level
01:30:42.940
that as you say this is the final battle and then he stops and the crowd responds
01:30:51.380
pahlavi will return so the chant is which means this is the final battle
01:30:58.560
pahlavi will return and let me tell you why this is so significant he says
01:31:03.180
that we have reached a level that as you say this is the final battle and he pauses for the
01:31:09.420
crowd to respond pahlavi will return and look at the smile on his face yeah it's so beautiful
01:31:15.760
he knew like oh my god he said that knowing that people will cry and respond in such oh my god
01:31:22.820
that was amazing look at look at look at how happy it is the the reason and the reason why
01:31:29.560
he's very happy and the reason why it's significant he says that is because our enemies accuse him
01:31:40.120
Our enemies, anti-Palavi people constantly say that,
01:31:48.620
But he's telling that he's confirming to the Iranian people
0.96
01:32:07.000
like he is he is our leader right like we want him because his his the his humility is the fact that
01:32:14.840
he's so humble has it has been to the point where he wouldn't come and acknowledge how big how
01:32:22.840
influential it is how he is how much people want him he always was very very humble and this is so
01:32:29.400
significant because he's saying it wouldn't make sense to you guys if you haven't been following
01:32:35.320
this for like many years but if you've been following him you know how extraordinary it is
01:32:41.960
for him to acknowledge that the iranian people want him he because he's always been focusing
01:32:48.600
not on himself but on the people he's he's the person that doesn't do me me me he doesn't do
01:32:54.680
he doesn't do i am the leader people want me he's always every time they ask him he always
01:33:01.560
reflects the attention on the iranian people okay but in the past few days after this you know after
01:33:09.560
this the massacre the iranian people have poured everywhere inside iran outside iran they have
01:33:16.520
called upon him so much that he says he's come when he goes and answers people he says people
01:33:23.960
want me and we are not used to hearing him admitting that the phrasing that he uses is
01:33:30.920
i'm here uh taking leadership at the call of the iranian people so yes yes at the call of the
01:33:38.600
iranian people yes but he always reduces the attention on him to try to reflect the attention
01:33:45.800
on the iranian people but but we iranian people who love him and want his leadership we want him
01:33:52.360
sometimes even though we understand what he's doing we wanted him sometimes to acknowledge
01:34:25.040
Even now he doesn't say it and he allows the Iranian people to just complete his sentence.
01:34:32.160
So now that you understand and listen to this part again, it's so beautiful.
01:34:55.040
Everybody, immediately, everybody completed that sentence.
01:34:59.020
You know, Armin, I think there's just certain slogans or certain words where it's just so like ingrained into us that if someone says the first part, we're just like without even thinking like clockwork, we'll just say the second part, right?
01:35:13.880
Like it was during the rally as well, like when I was in Toronto, right?
01:35:18.040
If someone just said, you know, Javid, everyone would yell Shah.
01:35:23.060
Or, you know, if someone said, um, you know, everyone says, so there's just like certain
01:35:30.780
It's like, if you hear it, everyone will just respond.
01:35:34.500
Because those are like some of the slogans there.
01:35:37.080
But, um, yeah, I think, I think also, um, it's, it's also, you know, I think he's also
01:35:45.380
smiling because it's he's been he's he's dedicated his entire life to freeing iran
01:35:53.620
right so the message that he's been um the message that he says today is the exact same message that
01:36:00.340
he gave 47 years ago nothing has changed nothing has changed and so this in a way is also
01:36:08.340
acknowledgement like it's it's you know i have a feeling he's also smiling because it's nice
01:36:13.140
that after 47 years you know the iranian people are finally acknowledging him and and recognizing
01:36:21.780
him for his efforts right his his tireless selfless efforts this battle which has been incredibly
01:36:28.660
lonely at times right because when he started this battle he was only 21 he was only 21 and uh
01:36:35.460
you know he he um swore the the oath um constitutional monarchy oath um and he's been
01:36:43.700
fighting this ever since and many of us weren't even alive back then right um when he you know
01:36:48.500
when he assumed uh when he when he succeeded his father that was in 1980 i wasn't even born then
01:36:53.940
i was born five years later so um the vast majority of people i think who also support him
01:37:01.380
are all younger right like we're all the younger generations like millennials and
01:37:05.940
and down as well right millennials and younger yeah and um and goldie correct me if i'm wrong
01:37:16.660
i think as a percentage of a pop of the population of a country no there is no
01:37:53.380
will be the largest gathering of people for any politician in history.
01:38:11.920
By the way, shout out to Yasmin Pahlavi, his wife.
01:38:16.860
a beautiful queen because he has she has been such an amazing support for the king
01:38:25.860
and yeah and sometimes she has been saying she has been done she has done things in support of
01:38:33.880
the movement uh where where certain things might have not been uh not not something that
01:39:11.000
destroys them like she comes in she's extremely she's very fierce and some people that's why some
0.95
01:39:16.700
people who are anti-palavi when they when they can't attack because priscilla pallavi is very
01:39:21.940
very you know calm and professional and does says speaks in a way that is fit for his position
01:39:30.180
and that's why so many anti-palavi people cannot really attack him so they go after his wife because
01:39:36.720
his wife is a lot more fierce and they call her a radical they call her like she goes after the
01:39:43.580
mek the leftists the the the pro-regime reformists and she doesn't hold back she does not hold back
01:39:52.560
and we love her for that she says the things that our king can't say basically yes exactly
01:40:00.220
she says that yeah she says the things that our king can't say exactly
01:40:03.820
so he's saying all of these people all of the javid noms javid noms are are fallen all of the
01:40:20.920
all of the people who fell in a revolution against the regime they will not be forgotten
01:40:27.100
Like me, just like you, there hasn't been a single day where I didn't tear up for the people that we lost.
01:40:41.660
He's basically saying, I have cried every single day for our fallen.
01:40:45.740
however this tear today has given me the energy that i'm that i'm getting from you the same energy
01:41:00.920
that i'm getting from you oh look at this he's he's tearing up now oh he's tearing up now and
0.87
01:41:11.640
people and he he he has to stop because the crap when he says i cried every day the entire crowd
0.94
01:41:18.680
is now shouting which means honorable honorable right
0.98
01:41:33.800
the crowd is chanting the crowd was chanting which means honorable
01:41:38.200
remember Bosharaf is the opposite of Bisharaf Bisharaf means no honor right dishonorable
01:41:45.300
Bisharaf is what I called um you know chunky yogurt and uh and Charandi Manandi on Pierce
01:41:51.220
Morgan um by the way I might be going back on Pierce Morgan next week oh amazing that's fantastic
01:41:59.680
not confirmed yet but let's see but here they're chanting Bosharaf which means honorable so they're
01:42:04.640
calling the king honorable okay by the way iran was mentioned by president trump and i have the
01:42:11.880
time stamp nail bunny sent it to me excellent so we'll have to look at that after after that let's
01:42:17.340
go to that we will free our country and we'll take back our country
01:42:26.740
guys you see you can see he's tearing up you know here he's saying i he's he's now addressing
01:42:38.700
all of the families of the fallen he's saying like i say to the families of the fallen and
01:42:46.260
guys like in this is a very poetic way in persian you know it's basically it's like
01:42:52.260
You refer to people who have lost or fallen as if they're holding something hot, as if their hearts are on fire.
01:43:04.760
So, in addressing all of the grieving families of the fallen,
01:43:16.000
you see how his voice trembles? He's trying to hold it back.
01:43:22.260
who have lost their loved ones they should know that they're not alone
01:43:36.360
and light is victorious over darkness light would overcome darkness this is the famous
01:43:52.260
that was perfect goldie thank you so much for sharing that with us that was perfect
01:44:05.620
that was wonderful um why don't we go to what president trump said
01:44:11.540
and then we can oh we're oh wait actually we're in the arm and power hour now so there you go
01:44:17.640
all right arm and power okay okay well let's do i mean this is the most important news that we
01:44:25.800
could cover right now so let's do that 107 thank you nalbany
01:44:35.460
there was another time that nalbany watched one of these white house videos like spent hours
01:45:13.960
and uh thus far he's been very good to the kurds yeah oh he's talking about he was talking about
01:45:21.000
joelani he's saying joelani is not a quiet uh choir boy but he's been good to the court he's
01:45:26.360
been very good to the kurds yeah thank you mr person what's your message to the iranian people
01:45:32.680
after two rounds of talks with them do you have any message to the iranian people
01:45:45.180
you know the people of iran are a lot different than the leaders of iran and it's very very
01:45:52.320
very sad situation but 32 000 people were killed over a relatively short period of time they were
01:46:00.920
going to hang 800 two weeks ago hang hang some by crane they lift them up with a tall crane
01:46:18.260
that you're going to be hit right then and there.
01:46:28.880
But no, I feel very badly for the people of Iran.
1.00
01:46:38.680
Because even though people weren't hanged, way more than 800 people are being shot dead inside Iran's prisons right now, even though they weren't hanged.
01:46:50.360
So, I mean, the 800, I guess, was stopped, but the regime did it behind closed doors.
01:47:03.320
um the the part where he said 32 000 were killed in a relatively short period of time he's referring
01:47:11.160
to the two-day massacre right so he's well aware of the two-day massacre and he knows the number
01:47:17.420
is much higher and then you heard him he said they better make a deal right they better make
01:47:23.580
a deal and as we know the deal is terms of surrender that's the only deal president trump
01:47:29.460
is interested in he's not interested in appeasing the regime he's not interested um in in like
01:47:37.180
extending their their life any more than that so he's made it he's making it very clear they better
01:47:43.700
make a deal they better come up with some sort of exit strategy otherwise you're gonna have a bad
01:47:47.960
time right that's how i see this so um yeah let me give you a very optimistic view regarding why
01:48:01.200
he's talking i mean obviously regarding to the deal obviously we agree that the deal that they
01:48:06.140
have on the table is a term of surrender and even if the islamic republic agrees to that that is
01:48:12.280
basically going to topple the regime even without an attack being needed like that's how the deal
01:48:18.900
has been designed and designed so that part is yes that part is like no no arguments there but
01:48:26.400
some people might be upset that even regardless of the deal this way of referring to the fact
01:48:35.180
that the islamic republic didn't hang 800 people is missing the point that you know thousands and
01:48:41.800
thousands of Iranians are being shot dead, and that 800 is nothing compared to the number
01:48:50.660
To me, if I want to have a very charitable take, I would say that he's saying that because
0.96
01:48:59.380
he wants to keep the Islamic Republic, have an excuse for why they didn't attack right
0.98
01:49:08.600
away just so that they could disarm the islamic republic as much as possible and give them some
0.95
01:49:14.860
hope that maybe he's not going to attack just so that they could start the war exactly when they
0.62
01:49:20.000
need to would that be your what do you think do you like do you have a different no yeah yeah i
01:49:25.880
i agree with what you're saying like president trump is not going to come out and just disclose
01:49:31.420
everything he knows um all at once right and he's certainly um not going to um allow the
01:49:40.380
the regime to know what his plans are right right i think i think it's very important to
01:49:46.240
remember here as well and two things we need to acknowledge is the the separation between
01:49:53.420
the iranian people and the regime that president trump just mentioned because we often hear this
01:49:58.220
from lindsey graham and marco rubio but it is good to hear that from president trump as well
01:50:04.120
where he made it very clear how much the iranian people and the regime is different because we
01:50:10.800
you know we don't usually hear uh that being discussed by president trump but now that he
01:50:16.540
mentioned it it's good that that's very clear uh messaging also the acknowledgement of more than
01:50:22.460
30 000 iranians being killed by the regime because some some people were didn't know
01:50:28.860
this i i haven't seen him acknowledge that number
01:50:33.100
anywhere else so because some iranians who some people who are who are criticizing trump made it
01:50:40.860
seem like he doesn't even acknowledge tens of thousands of iranians being killed by the regime
01:50:45.900
but he did acknowledge it here so that's a huge positive as well right
01:50:53.420
all right yeah right um oh i just wanted to share something really quickly
01:50:59.260
um just to lighten the mood a little bit before we go to the next thing um
01:51:08.460
you'll appreciate this arvin guys my instagram feed is uh it's literally like an emotional
01:51:15.820
roller coaster right now because half of it is pretty much morning videos um and then the other
01:51:22.060
half is like jokes and and memes so i wanted to share one um meme i have a very sad video do you
01:51:30.860
think we should show it before um or after your funny video after because i have a few sad ones
01:51:37.500
but i'll just show this one really really quickly because i have a whole bunch but um so this is uh
01:51:44.380
like let me just let me just share that let me just show the video and then i'll explain the
01:52:17.700
famous um like old song and the woman is singing man oh madame um which means i've arrived
01:52:29.400
so it's it's a it's a very it's a very very like famous song and it's like this woman and it's
01:52:38.520
like you know she's basically singing to her lover and she's like man oh madame
01:52:42.920
it's like, so, you know, she's like, I've arrived. So basically, they've, Iranians have made a meme
0.98
01:52:50.920
where it's President Trump on the USS Abraham Lincoln. And he's basically, you know, dancing
0.91
01:52:57.360
and saying to the Ayatollahs that I've arrived, I've arrived to Iran. So this is one of the one
01:53:04.480
of the, you know, Iranian memes slash jokes, because people are very excited. Like Iranians
0.93
01:53:10.500
are very very excited about um the fact that the uh american military is showing up right so despite
01:53:18.660
the propaganda from the you know isolationists or anyone else um people people in iran and outside
01:53:26.180
of iran are very very grateful to the point where they're literally making you know memes
01:53:31.700
uh to show president trump yeah i mean the ship is probably too small it's it's it's an it's an ai
0.51
01:53:36.340
it's an ai thing but um but like you know like iranians are basically making these sorts of
01:53:41.540
videos to to you know as a show of appreciation right so basically it's like it's president trump
01:54:06.340
so there's a little bit of iranian iranian humor for you
01:54:20.740
okay back to you urban okay this is a tough one to watch is that okay guys yeah you should watch it
01:54:40.980
um so this boy his mother was uh killed by the regime during the protests and
01:54:57.140
the way he speaks about what's happening is on a different level like he's 10 years old
01:55:05.540
but the way he speaks makes him look like he's like a very wise man um like it's but let me just
01:55:15.380
should i just play it through his two minutes and then translate it or should i okay so i'm
01:55:20.020
going to play it through one no sorry play it through once and then okay i play it through once
01:57:53.720
like with just one bullet my entire life has been destroyed but just one bullet
01:58:03.720
like there were three of us and now one of us has been taken away
01:58:12.480
we're one less like there are a family of three and now one of them is gone
01:58:23.240
like i used to love police i wanted to be a policeman
01:58:30.560
now i now i don't want to this is the end of me being a police
01:59:00.560
Like, did I just, was I just born for only 10 years of life?
01:59:06.800
Basically, he's saying that there's no more life for him after this.
01:59:10.260
So he's saying, was I just born only to live for just 10 years?
01:59:36.020
i only had 10 years with my mom the rest i'm going to have to live in the prison of life
01:59:49.020
so again he says i only had 10 years with my mom the rest i have to live it in the prison of life
02:00:00.560
this was my life was this was this by the end of my life
02:00:17.120
like all i saw in my life was inflation and poverty
02:00:20.480
i saw also all sorts of sadness sadness and misery
02:00:30.560
and then after 40 days i have to come and see my mom here
02:00:38.960
and right this is by the way because this is the 40th day and a memorial for his mom death
02:01:03.740
so basically talking about the 40 days of misery that he had to go through
02:01:09.820
he's saying i want only one thing from god i want only one thing from god
02:01:19.360
why did god do this to me so he wants only thing only one thing from god he's saying
02:01:31.240
he's saying look at the do you see do you see over there
02:01:42.100
my mom is sleeping under there saying do you see over there my mom is sleeping over under there
02:01:50.500
so this is this video is going viral on iranian social media and they asked me to share with you
02:02:23.500
So. So foreign minister of the Islamic Republic, Iraq, she has came out and said this video, this insane video, we got, by the way, guys, we saw that this was their plan ever since they had position on Tucker Carlson by whenever the Islamic Republic is
02:02:53.480
feeling weak they come out and say that we are not anti-american they try to make it seem that
02:03:00.240
the war is just with israel and they have nothing against america and they are not enemies of
0.71
02:03:07.080
america and they're only enemies of israel and it's israel that is dragging america into this
02:03:13.300
war so tucker carlson gave the opportunity to president pezishkian to come and spread that
02:03:20.000
nonsense and now arahshi here is doing the same thing uh on the morning joe exclusive show
02:03:31.760
which is again another reason why you can see both like what the walk right and these leftists
02:03:37.760
at the same time they allow this nonsense to be let's actually just watch what he's saying
02:03:43.920
we don't consider the american states you know the americans as our enemy we consider the americans
02:03:51.760
govern uh you know american government's policies as hostile against iran and and when those
02:03:59.520
facilities are stopped then we can perhaps consider having a different kind of relations
02:04:07.680
So he's suggesting that the problem that they have with the United States is not essential.
02:04:21.080
It's only because of the current policies the United States has and that they don't really consider themselves to actually be the enemy of the United States inherently.
02:04:32.580
They say we don't consider Americans as our enemy, which is absolute nonsense.
02:04:39.580
I say that as an Iranian that grew up in Iran, that it's the ideology of the Islamic Republic that the main enemy is the United States.
02:04:53.580
The main enemy is not even Israel. The main enemy is the United States.
02:04:57.580
states in fact one of the reasons why israel is the enemy one of the main reasons is because
0.94
02:05:03.660
they're in the way of getting to the united states and by the way if somebody's if any of my iranians
02:05:11.580
friends are watching i know there's a video of ali khamini i have it i just oh there we go
02:05:18.540
oh there we go okay see we we're like we think we're vibing we're vibing yeah
02:05:28.300
wow you you were ready amazing okay so let's play this i'm a good co-host okay i'm a good
02:05:36.220
co-host you're the best okay let's play this wow perfect so well so he's saying what's
02:05:51.020
like he doesn't even hesitate they ask him what is the main enemy of iran but he
02:05:57.580
like islamic republic without hesitation he says america
02:06:01.480
he didn't even need a translation oh yeah but there you go so right away she said who's the
02:06:13.100
main who's the main i don't know this is probably i don't know why the music is there but uh it's
02:06:17.900
like um so the the reporter's asking um who's the main enemy of iran and he says america america
02:06:25.540
Right. But now they're trying to convince you guys that you're not the enemy. Right. Because they're scared. It's it's it's Takiyah. We watched Mark Levin. Remember Mark Levin's Life, Liberty and Levin episode from Sunday night. He spoke about the doctrine of Takiyah. And he said that the Islamic regime's foreign policy is pretty much based off of Takiyah.
02:07:17.240
made this a problem that is absolute garbage nonsense i guarantee you guys i grew up in iran
0.99
02:07:26.300
i was educated under the propaganda of the islamic theocracy the entire goal is to destroy america
0.98
02:07:36.680
that's why they call israel the little satan and america the big satan
0.94
02:07:41.840
from before before america did anything from the very from day one the goal was to eventually
0.51
02:07:50.640
destroy the united states and basically take over the entire world
02:07:55.440
in fact if if without israel they would have gone to america sooner these isolationists these these
1.00
02:08:04.720
this nick fuentes type people or tucker carlson type idiots when they tell you that i don't know
1.00
02:08:11.240
Dave Smith, idiots, they have no idea what they're talking about.
1.00
02:08:16.140
They have zero knowledge about the Islamic Republic.
1.00
02:08:20.300
They always, their entire goal is to destroy America
1.00
02:08:23.360
because they see it as the main holder of world capitalism
0.98
02:08:28.240
and the imperialism and kofur, which means the lands of the infidel.
02:08:35.400
They believe that Islam inherently divides the world into Da'ar al-Kufr and Da'ar al-Islam, inherently, from the very beginning, from the beginning of Islam, right?
02:08:48.900
And according to the Islamic Republic, the leader of Da'ar al-Kufr, which means the house of unbelief, the leader of that is the United States, not Israel.
0.89
02:08:58.620
Without Israel, the Islamic Republic would have came for the United States sooner.
0.75
02:09:04.400
sooner israel hasn't made iran a problem islamic republic has israel is actually the solution
02:09:14.400
um i don't know if you um have we played this goldie this was from nine hours ago
02:09:20.320
no i haven't played this yet we should watch it okay so let's let's switch this
02:09:24.800
here now with more on iran and cuba and america's dominance on the world stage
02:09:33.920
under trump texas senator ted cruz senator how can you describe this other than freedom
02:09:40.240
is on the march around the world i i think that's exactly right we are at an extraordinary moment
02:09:48.080
in history it is entirely possible sean that in the next six months we will see the regimes fall
02:09:54.800
Iran, in Venezuela, and in Cuba. And we could also see governments replace them that want to be
02:10:03.280
friends with the United States of America. Now, let me be clear. I'm not being Pollyannish about
02:10:09.120
this. There are a thousand things that can go wrong. But if that happens, this would be the
02:10:14.800
most consequential geopolitical shift since the fall of the Berlin Wall, since America won the
02:10:21.320
Cold War without firing a shot. I spoke with President Trump the day before yesterday,
02:10:26.680
and we talked in particular about Iran. And I said, this moment, the regime is teetering. The
02:10:33.400
Ayatollah is in his last days. And I said, do not let this opportunity pass. We have an opportunity.
0.80
02:10:41.520
The Ayatollah routinely chants, death to America. This is a regime that is the leading state sponsor
0.99
02:10:48.280
of terrorism on the face of the planet. It is responsible for murdering hundreds of American
02:10:53.500
servicemen and women. The Iranian regime has provided over 90 percent of the funding for
0.98
02:10:58.580
Hamas and for Hezbollah. To see the mullahs toppled would be a tremendous advance for the
02:11:05.440
people of Iran. It would be a tremendous advance for the Middle East. But most critically,
02:11:09.600
it would be a massive improvement in the national security of the United States.
02:11:13.800
I believe President Trump is providing the leadership that is necessary and it's making
02:11:19.200
our country a lot safer. You know, we keep hearing the president would prefer a deal and I believe
02:11:25.000
that about President Trump. The president was very clear. He gave him 50 days to give up their
02:11:29.860
nuclear program. They wouldn't do it. They've never, ever, ever agreed to any place, anywhere,
02:11:35.100
anytime inspections by the U.S. They're not going to agree to that now. So it seems to me
02:11:41.940
the only negotiation is do you want to leave on your own you know after you plunder the country
02:11:46.920
and fill your plane these people understand what's happening like especially when it comes
02:11:51.980
to not just nuclear but also the missiles there's no way that they will allow um americans or anyone
02:12:00.040
else to come check if they're basically the range of their missiles so this is why this is why this
02:12:06.440
is another confirmation of what Goldie says, that if they agree to the terms of this deal,
02:12:15.580
this is going to be a deal for their surrender. So it's not going to happen. It's very unlikely
02:12:21.980
that it's going to happen. But for once, we should actually want for a deal to happen.
02:12:27.980
Because we're basically talking about the toppling of the Islamic Republic with a war
0.89
02:12:33.060
without a war we're not talking about the islamic republic not being toppled we're just talking
0.90
02:12:38.500
about the method of it being toppled so honestly even if they do a deal that would be just the
02:12:44.820
toppling of the islamic republic without war i mean i mean that's i i mean i don't think that's
02:12:50.580
possible but if it was that would be ideal but after i leave other men are going to come behind
02:12:58.340
me and those men are not going to take no for an answer noriega didn't say yes and of course we went
02:13:06.180
down there we arrested him on january 3rd we arrested him we prosecuted him for being a drug
02:13:11.860
trafficker and he was sentenced to over 30 years in prison he died in prison donald trump gave the
02:13:17.620
exact same offer to maduro you can leave you can live a life of wealth and opulence away from power
02:13:25.540
and Maduro told Trump no. And on January 3rd of this year, we sent the Delta Force down there.
02:13:32.760
We apprehended him. He's going to be prosecuted. Nicolas Maduro will die in prison. The Ayatollah
02:13:38.460
and the mullahs have a choice. Do you want to be forcibly removed or do you want to accept
0.92
02:13:42.840
the opportunity to leave? I hope the Ayatollah has more sense than Noriega and Maduro have.
02:13:48.900
What do you say to those that really don't seem, in my mind, to understand the Trump doctrine? I
02:13:54.060
agree with them. I agree with the president. No forever wars, peace through strength. But that
02:13:59.280
does not mean isolationism. And there are some Republicans that define what American foreign
02:14:07.600
policy to be sounds to me like isolationism. Yeah. Look, President Trump is not an isolationist,
02:14:15.240
but he's also not an interventionist. We are not going to see a ground invasion of Iran. We're not
02:14:20.060
going to see hundreds of thousands of troops on the ground. We're not going to see massive
02:14:23.180
American casualties. But the president is willing to defend American national security interests.
02:14:28.780
He ordered the B-2s to bomb Iran's nuclear facilities. That was the single most important
0.91
02:14:34.620
national security decision of the first term. And I got to say, the isolationists are wrong.
02:14:41.660
They keep wanting Donald Trump to be an isolationist, and that's not who he is.
02:14:45.980
yeah so guys the isolationists are not america first they're i mean i don't i don't even want
02:14:54.700
to call them america only i think they're just anti-american okay like the america the isolation
02:15:02.540
is they call themselves america first but they're anti-american if they understood any even a little
02:15:09.820
bit of how economics works how geopolitics works or even if they studied their own history they
02:15:15.980
will realize that america became such a powerful great country because of its involvement around
02:15:22.700
the world and the whole world became better it's not just america that became better america's
02:15:28.380
involvement around the world is the reason why we have this level of prosperity all around the world
02:15:35.500
The global trade requires the level of security that American military provides.
02:15:43.740
And the level of security that the American military provides to the stability that we have in international trade is only possible with America's military present everywhere in the world.
02:15:57.280
That's the only way we have this level of prosperity.
02:15:59.760
The whole world, not just Americans, the whole world owes America when it comes to the level of prosperity that we enjoy today.
02:16:07.640
I was just going to add, like all these people who are claiming that they don't want a forever war.
0.63
02:16:21.240
And as long as the Islamic regime remains in power, the forever war will continue and escalate.
0.98
02:16:26.580
So what's happening now is ending the forever war. So I find it incredibly disingenuous. The people who are claiming that they don't want another forever war, they're either being disingenuous and they're trying to hide the fact that we are currently in a forever war because of the regime's existence, or they know absolutely nothing about Iranian geopolitics, because right now we are in the forever war and we're trying to end the forever war.
0.96
02:16:54.400
Yes, and that's a very good point. And on top of that, a lot of Americans, the isolationist Americans who think that, oh, we cannot afford this war, they don't understand that they're already paying so much because of the existence of the Islamic Republic.
0.93
02:17:16.040
You are already paying so much and you would be saving a lot of money in the trillions of dollars because when the Islamic Republic is gone, you have already a lot of military holdup and investments and costs for keeping stability in the Middle East.
02:17:36.700
All of that would become untied for you to use it where it makes more sense, for example, in the Pacific, against your main rival, which is the CCP.
02:17:50.700
First of all, you might ask, why are we even in the Middle East?
02:17:55.100
because a huge portion of the entire globe's energy comes from the Middle East
02:18:01.280
and the United States is present when it comes to securing trade
02:18:12.500
Do you understand that if the United States was not in the Middle East,
02:18:16.260
the instability of trade from where a huge portion of the globe's energy comes from
02:18:25.260
would make everything in your own country significantly more expensive.
02:18:32.420
It was in the best interest of every American citizen for the United States
02:18:37.700
to make sure that the area where the oil and gas comes from is safe and secure
02:18:43.120
and international trade is possible from these regions.
02:18:47.480
It has always been in the best interest of every American citizen.
02:18:52.160
And it's also been in the best interest of every American citizen
02:18:57.820
but it would have been more advantageous if Pahlavi was there as well.
02:19:06.500
made the cost of creating stability in the Middle East
0.95
02:19:10.960
significantly lower for United States and wouldn't it be nice if you could go back to having not just
02:19:18.760
one which is Israel but two countries in the Middle East which are major allies of United
02:19:24.760
States and are maintaining stability for their own interests but also for United States interests in
02:19:31.560
the Middle East so that you could get rid of all of the yearly costs that you have to spend to have
02:19:39.220
stability around the middle east so that united states and the rest of the world has access to
02:19:44.980
all and if you think if you're if you think well we don't need their oil and gas we already have
02:19:50.900
oil and gas you don't understand how supply and demand works okay even if you have your oil and
02:19:57.540
gas if the level of oil and gas in in the world as a whole is insecure oil and gas prices increases
02:20:05.940
everywhere and you're going to feel that in your wallet inside America.
02:20:10.900
And the prices of everything is connected to the price of oil and gas and that's how
02:20:17.420
So Israel and hopefully potentially another Iran providing that security for you in the
02:20:23.400
Middle East, that means less American money and less being used, being spent for the stability
02:20:30.260
the middle east as significantly less in the trillions of dollars but it also means less
02:20:36.660
american lives having to be less american soldiers dying for the sake of bringing stability into the
02:20:43.860
middle east because just like israelis could tell americans we got this because this is our
02:20:49.060
neighborhood now instead of just israel you would have israel and iran telling americans we got this
02:20:56.020
so this is how you would be saving trillions of dollars this war would be expensive but
02:21:02.580
the return on investments in in in dollars but also in lives for americans are significantly
02:21:10.980
much higher than whatever costs associated with this war and this is what isolationists don't
02:21:16.340
understand oh i need to go soon let me play the rest of this video and the world is safer because
02:21:25.620
of it. Listen, our enemies are terrified of President Trump. I got to say at 3 a.m. on January
02:21:32.060
3rd of this year, every Latin American dictator had to change his shorts because they were
02:21:38.400
terrified. And by the way, Putin and Xi were also terrified because there's no other military
02:21:44.140
on planet Earth that can carry out what the U.S. military did in Venezuela. This president is
02:21:49.980
committed to keeping America safe and we are much safer because instead of having a president like
02:21:55.160
joe biden who was weak and they weren't afraid of they are terrified of the u.s commander-in-chief
1.00
02:22:00.680
and that the american people are safer as a result here's my prediction they'll be too stupid
0.99
02:22:05.640
to understand what's about to hit them yeah senator cruz thank you i think that's very like
0.99
02:22:11.800
that was perfect okay um let me see do i have anything else okay i think i did most of what i
02:22:20.840
need to show i do have like a summary of what's everything is happening it hasn't changed much
02:22:25.880
since yesterday so i think we're good for now um i'm just gonna goldie is it um yeah i'm gonna
02:22:33.640

02:23:07.000
mean for china and russia that's a very interesting topic that we could discuss
02:23:10.840
What does a free secular democratic Iran mean for the future of China and Russia in the Middle East and how this is going to completely change the global balance between United States and China going forward if Iran has a government that is an ally of the United States?
02:23:33.420
these are the stuff that i i'm really interested in talking about if you guys are interested and

02:24:35.300
need to take about a 15 20 minute break so i'll be back in about like 15 minutes
02:28:46.260
Stability in Middle East, we're longing for the people shout from young to old, one leader, brave and bold.
02:29:33.340
I'm a genius man, a patriot strong, a doer, a fighter, where we belong.
02:33:48.560
We plug into the ground, we are not able to get
1.00
02:33:51.920
We will have an open mind and know we will not finish
02:39:53.800
to all of our friends around the world under the yoke of the islamic republic
1.00
02:40:22.760
Iran is identified in your minds with terrorism, extremism, and poverty.
0.79
02:40:29.260
The real Iran is a different Iran, a beautiful, peace-loving, and flourishing Iran.
02:40:38.620
It is the Iran that existed before the Islamic Republic,
02:40:42.860
and it is the Iran that will rise again from its ashes the day the Islamic Republic falls.
02:40:49.340
So let me be clear about how a free Iran will act towards its neighbors and the world after
02:41:01.300
In security and foreign policy, Iran's nuclear military program will end.
02:41:08.840
Support for terrorist groups will cease immediately.
02:41:12.140
A free Iran will work with regional and global partners to confront terrorism, organized crime, drug trafficking, and extremist Islamism.
02:41:25.640
Iran will act as a friend and a stabilizing force in the region, and it will be a responsible partner in global security.
0.50
02:41:37.220
In diplomacy, relations with the United States will be normalized
02:41:42.260
and our friendship with America and her people will be restored.
02:41:48.040
The state of Israel will be recognized immediately.
02:41:53.260
We will pursue the expansion of the Abraham Accords into the Cyrus Accords,
0.82
02:41:58.540
bringing together a free Iran, Israel, and the Arab world.
02:42:03.160
A new chapter will begin, grounded in mutual recognition, sovereignty, and national interest.
02:42:13.440
In energy, Iran holds some of the largest oil and gas reserves in the world.
02:42:20.860
A free Iran will become a reliable energy supplier to the free world.
0.62
02:42:36.640
In transparency and governance, Iran will adopt and enforce international standards.
02:42:55.520
In the economy, Iran is one of the world's last great untapped markets.
02:43:01.820
Our population is educated, modern, with a diaspora that connects it to the four corners of the world.
02:43:11.660
A democratic Iran will open its economy to trade, investment, and innovation.
02:43:29.920
It is a practical one, grounded in national interest, stability, and cooperation.
02:43:38.920
To achieve this, now is the time to stand with the Iranian people.
02:43:45.660
The fall of the Islamic Republic and the establishment of a secular democratic government in Iran
02:43:53.020
Iran will not only restore dignity to my people, it will benefit the region and the world.
02:44:02.120
A free Iran will be a force for peace, for prosperity, and for partnership.
02:46:55.120
The whole world will be the end of the world
0.83
02:48:53.120
all right guys oh look at this comment manham iraniam thank you i love that thank you for your
02:49:13.700
support so amazing all right let's go to the interview that his royal highness king
02:49:21.540
Reza Pahlavi had with Stéphane. Stéphane's a good friend of mine. He's the owner and founder
02:49:30.320
of Visagrad 24. I know him quite well. We talk all the time on WhatsApp. Fantastic person.
02:49:37.800
Huge supporter as well. Huge, huge supporter. So let's go to that interview because I've heard
02:49:43.300
great things. I haven't watched it yet because I was waiting to watch it here live with you guys.
02:49:48.780
so this came out yesterday okay here we go actually let me change the format of the screen
02:49:59.340
here there we go let me do it like this so that um the the comments won't like the chat won't um
02:50:22.220
Maybe there are some people here who think they know better than Arabs and Muslims in the region about these two organizations.
02:50:29.320
Crown Prince Reza Pakhlavi, leader of the Iranian opposition in exile.
0.54
02:50:33.780
the Islamization of the West, demographic replacement.
02:50:38.520
I warned the Europeans many, many years ago
0.99
02:50:41.520
that one of these days is going to be in your own backyard.
0.92
02:50:44.640
And guess what? It is not in your own backyard.
02:50:49.100
and instead of assimilating and respecting our values and our culture,
0.91
02:50:53.100
you're dictating to us that we should now practice the Sharia law in Europe.
0.94
02:51:03.460
Nothing good came out of this so-called Sharia law.
1.00
02:51:13.760
A regime so desperate that it massacres its own people,
02:51:22.460
From Lebanon, from Palestine, from Afghanistan, from Iraq,
1.00
02:51:26.560
to do the dirty job and kill Iranian people on the street.
0.99
02:51:31.060
what is it that you would actually like western governments to do in practice number one come to
02:51:37.220
to our help to equalize the playing field for us by taking out and neutralizing the element of
02:51:42.180
repression that the regime is utilizing that includes the irgc or any other instance so you're
02:51:47.060
advocating for an armed intervention number two economic strangulation freezing of their assets
02:51:52.820
and repurposing that towards helping the iranian people expelling their diplomats closing their
02:51:57.140
embassies going after them legally prosecuting those who have been criminally responsible for
02:52:02.020
this acts of crime against humanity making sure that iranians are not disconnected from the world
02:52:06.980
so access to internet information is critical and ultimately be ready to recognize the transitional
0.73
02:52:12.420
government that is the legitimate answer of this regime is on the verge of violence it's just a
02:52:17.460
matter of time my name is stefan thompson i'm the founder of vicegrad24 and today i'm here with
02:52:23.540
crown prince reza patlavi the unofficial or official to some people leader of the iranian
02:52:29.140
opposition in exile reza what a pleasure to be here with you it's good to be here with you
02:52:33.620
thank you for having me thank you so much for your time we're meeting in in very specific
02:52:37.620
circumstances there has been an insane crackdown the massacre is exceptionally brutal tell us
02:52:44.260
about what is happening to iran and what it feels like from your perspective no words can describe
02:52:56.860
The minimum numbers that we have had was over 36,000 people
02:53:07.440
They don't just end with killing people on the streets.
02:53:14.540
There are over 40,000 people who have been arrested,
02:53:17.060
that more than 300,000 wounded women are being raped in jail.
02:53:21.460
It's really atrocious in terms of the level of violence that has been utilized.
02:53:33.760
They've been chanting slogans from the rooftops every night since that massacre.
02:53:39.100
You have seen a wide level of support for them in the Iranian diaspora worldwide,
02:53:47.060
And everybody is up there backing each other up and supporting each other in this revolt.
02:53:53.580
I mean, we are right now at the state where we are dealing with an occupying force
02:53:58.940
and everybody is hoping that the world will come to the rescue and deliver us
02:54:03.440
in terms of, you know, a sort of humanitarian intervention that is necessary.
02:54:09.720
This is the only way that we can find an opportunity to actually rise against a regime
02:54:15.580
that very unfairly has all the advantage of repression and only the world can help us by
02:54:21.500
equalizing the playing field for us so everybody's awaiting some action to be taken as soon sooner
02:54:27.980
rather than later to save lives in reality to have less casualties in our struggle for freedom
02:54:33.980
some of the videos that have been emerging from Iran are absolutely horrific including a video
02:54:38.540
that particularly moved me was a video of IRGC forces driving a car and literally driving over
02:54:46.020
protesters. Now, these videos have been proliferated on social media, mostly on X,
02:54:52.180
where we've had Iranian diaspora members and dissidents and people who stand against the
02:54:57.920
regime who have been the voice of the people of Iran. What is very marking to me as I watch your
02:55:05.460
struggle and the struggle of the Iranian people against the Islamic regime is that the mainstream
02:55:09.600
media has been broadly silent about the scale of this crackdown. You've just said the figure 36,000
02:55:17.120
dead just in the Tehran area. Now, the war in Gaza attracted mainstream media attention for two years,
02:55:26.680
tens of protests in every single capital city, every week, every Saturday, hundreds of thousands
02:55:32.020
of people coming out. Why is the mainstream media, in your opinion, not as interested in the plight
02:55:38.460
of the Iranian people as they were in the plight of the people of Gaza? Indeed, social media has
02:55:42.820
been key to report back to the whole world what's happening on the streets of Iran. And unfortunately,
02:55:48.820
mainstream media has been practically absent from it. Is it because maybe it doesn't fit their
02:55:53.740
narrative in some way? Is there a double standard going on? I leave that to the public opinion's
02:56:00.080
judgment, but clearly it has been quite absent from describing something that has been unprecedented
02:56:06.260
in modern history. Over 30,000 people in less than two days being murdered, and yet it seems like
02:56:13.120
that's not a big enough of an issue for mainstream media to cover. And, you know, at some point,
02:56:18.460
they'll have to be accountable in a way. Not covering such a tragedy is either complete
02:56:26.260
ignorance or worse, almost like playing to the regime's hand and its instrument of propaganda
02:56:32.220
that has always been masking all their dirty work. A regime so desperate that its total darkness
02:56:38.780
massacres its own people. A regime so desperate and weak that it has to import over 5,000
02:56:45.440
militias that are not even Iranian nationals from Lebanon, from Palestine, from Afghanistan,
0.98
02:56:52.200
from Iraq to do the dirty job and kill Iranian people on the street.
02:56:58.980
I think many Iranians like me are quite frustrated by what should be the most obvious thing for
02:57:09.160
Hopefully they'll catch up to it and wise up to understanding that it is a moral obligation
02:57:18.040
As a journalist, you could not be oblivious to this level of genocide.
02:57:22.200
I just want to go to I see someone had a super chat here. Let me just respond to that. So the ex post you mentioned yesterday keeps getting removed, maybe copyrighted. It's the song played during break before the Shah speech that so that song, it's it's on YouTube, you can find it on my Iran Revolution Live playlist. If you go there, you'll find it.
02:57:49.440
um it's uh i've it's the song that was published um by the um like the person who made the song
02:57:57.680
so it's available um you can find it on the iran revolution live playlist
02:58:04.240
there have been a number of protests organized by the by the diaspora some very moving images
02:58:09.760
outside of embassies uh the lion and sun flag flying every time i see it i get slightly moved
02:58:16.640
My family was in exile. I was half Polish, and my family was also in exile.
02:58:21.060
So your plight is sort of familiar to my family's story in and of itself.
02:58:28.280
The diaspora is bringing attention to the horrors happening in Iran today.
02:58:33.240
What is it that you would want the Western world to do to actually help the Iranian people?
02:58:42.200
Getting the images out is something that even people like me can do.
02:58:46.640
But what is it that you would actually like Western governments to do in practice?
02:58:51.580
When you have leaders beginning to take a very strong stance,
02:58:55.880
example, Chancellor Merkel, that talks about this regime having lost complete legitimacy.
02:59:00.620
Well, when a system becomes illegitimate, then you have to, by the same logic, say,
02:59:07.840
Is it the aspiration of the Iranian people that finally needs to be acknowledged?
02:59:11.200
Because for 40 years, the West has, in essence, conducted a foreign policy of appeasement,
02:59:20.100
with the hope that somehow this regime will change its behavior and will become reasonable
02:59:25.760
enough to come to the negotiating table and stop its strategy of unleashing radicalism
02:59:31.600
and extremism and terrorism, regionally and beyond.
02:59:36.360
Meanwhile, we are where we are today as a result of a regime that has always been thrown
02:59:40.580
a lifeline for four decades, and to this day haven't shown any resemblance of the ability
02:59:47.780
to transform itself into something other than what it is. And it cannot, because as I say,
02:59:52.920
what they are doing, it's in their DNA. They are not compatible with the democratic free world
02:59:59.380
that respects human rights, that values individual liberties, that protects the right of minorities,
0.95
03:00:04.720
religious, ethnic. This is a regime that has basically been there only to export an ideology
03:00:12.560
at the detriment of the Iranian people and against the interests of the free world. So
0.56
03:00:17.520
when we look at the free world, what do we expect them to do? Number one, you can certainly help us
03:00:24.080
by making sure that Iranians who are defenseless and unarmed vis-à-vis such level of brutality
1.00
03:00:29.760
come to our help to equalize the playing field for us
03:00:33.700
by taking out and neutralizing the element of repression
03:00:41.240
So you're advocating for an armed intervention?
03:00:46.740
because the instrument that kills people on the streets
03:00:53.580
I mean, sometimes wars ended on the result of intervention of that nature.
03:01:02.680
Number two, economic strangulation in terms of any revenue
03:01:06.080
that the regime is utilizing to fund and keeps its war machine going on.
03:01:12.240
Freezing of their assets and repurposing that towards helping the Iranian people
03:01:16.160
in their various campaigns from labor strikes and others, for instance.
03:01:20.580
Expelling their diplomats, closing their embassies,
03:01:23.200
going after them legally and prosecuting those who have been criminally responsible
03:01:29.760
They can also do more in terms of making sure that Iranians are not disconnected from the
03:01:36.640
world, so access to internet and information is critical.
03:01:40.160
And that will be an instrument that will be of tremendous self for us in every phase of
03:01:45.380
And ultimately, be ready to recognize the transitional government that is the legitimate
03:01:49.520
answer to the aspiration of the Iranian people against a regime that has lost complete legitimacy.
03:01:56.700
These are the kind of tangible steps that I think the world can take to help us.
03:02:00.760
And at the end of the day, they will realize that this is, in fact, not just because it's
03:02:03.840
good for the Iranian people, but it's good for their own interests as well.
03:02:07.520
One of the things that is misunderstood perhaps about Iran is how influential that country
03:02:13.560
is in the Middle East and what role it has played, including in the Israel-Hamas war.
03:02:19.340
The Israelis weren't just fighting against Hamas, they were fighting against a number
03:02:24.940
tell us more about the role that Iran plays as a destabilizing force in the Middle East?
0.68
03:02:30.200
Well, again, the regime trying to establish its modern-day Shiite caliphate and export
0.83
03:02:36.200
it to the world is using a lot of its proxies to conduct that. So whether it is their support
0.82
03:02:41.280
for Hamas or Hezbollah or the Houthis, for instance, and all the way to European soil
03:02:45.680
and even the Western Hemisphere, having terrorist organization or having sleeper cells that
03:02:57.080
targeting, for instance, British citizens on British soil.
03:03:02.360
of the operations that Iran has carried out
0.82
03:03:04.660
in Western nations, to destabilize Western nations?
0.92
03:03:09.380
the whole mapping of the structures and institutions
03:03:11.820
that are disguised as so-called foundations or centers
03:03:18.260
of the Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei, who operates on European soil, in this case in Britain,
03:03:23.560
and how they're targeting British citizens, the Jewish community, journalists, dissidents
03:03:30.320
And to have that spread out, that's not even before we start talking about the money laundering
03:03:36.040
And a lot of it, again, ties to the IRGC and why the prescription of the IRGC keeps popping
03:03:40.800
up as one measure that needs to be taken, that's a subject in itself.
03:03:45.160
these are the kind of ways that the regime so far has uh has uh yeah i just want to say you
03:03:51.480
make a very good point angela like uh king has always said that um his only goal right now is
03:04:00.600
to transition the country and to be that transitional leader and he basically just
03:04:05.400
wants to ensure free and fair elections at the ballot box so that iranians can determine the type
03:04:12.840
of secular democracy they want to have now whether they want to have a constitutional monarchy or
03:04:18.040
republic that's up to iranians that's you know something um that you know we iranians will be
03:04:24.680
discussing amongst ourselves the day after the islamic regime falls but right now
03:04:29.880
our focus is on overthrowing the regime um the one thing that we are all committed to those of
03:04:34.920
us you know whether like regardless of whether we want constitutional monarchy or republic
03:04:39.640
um all of us are committed to having a secular democratic society it's just a matter of figuring
03:04:48.200
out do we want to be like you know canada for example canada being constitutional monarchy
03:04:52.920
or do we want to be like the united states where it's um it's a republic
03:05:02.760
conducted to to undermine regional stability and you know by proxy war achieve two things a
03:05:09.160
create that instability that they thrive on but also to deflect the tension from themselves
03:05:14.120
every time there was an issue they would deflect attention either to syria or to lebanon or to
03:05:18.680
gaza or to israel or to any other thing to deflect attention from themselves that has
03:05:23.800
been a tactic that the regime has used for decades there has been some some claims and
03:05:29.480
allegedly there is evidence that would link the irgc and some of the gangs that operate in europe
03:05:35.160
even on the basis of sort of armed robberies uh drug dealing is this something that you're aware
03:05:40.440
of president that extended that all the way to latin america i mean part of the connection that
03:05:45.240
the regime in tehran had with uh with caracas and of course also with tuba has been one of those
03:05:51.080
axes uh that a lot of people in the in venezuela could tell you about the the footprint of the rgc
03:05:59.160
all the way in the western hemisphere um and this is not something new uh some of the attacks that
03:06:04.040
were carried out against, let's say, the synagogue in Argentina. That was another operation
03:06:09.240
that was launched by the regime, again, targeting the Jewish community.
03:06:15.320
There are so many examples over the four decades that you can demonstrate the pattern of behavior.
03:06:22.040
And this is not just an incident. This is actually part of the entire strategy to
03:06:27.800
intimidate the region and keep all of us hostage in the process.
0.93
03:06:32.120
The United States of America in several states has moved to ban and designate the Muslim Brotherhood as a prescribed terrorist organization.
0.78
03:06:40.960
The European Union has been stalling on declaring both the IRGC and the Muslim Brotherhood as terrorist organizations.
03:06:49.620
Why do you think that Europeans are stalling on this, especially given that a large selection of majority Muslim countries,
03:06:57.940
including the UAE, Jordan, Saudi, Egypt, have designated and prescribed the Muslim Brotherhood
03:07:03.960
as a terrorist organization. Why is Europe stalling on this?
03:07:07.380
Maybe there are some people here who think they know better than Arabs and Muslims in the region
03:07:19.680
I don't know. Perhaps they're being, I don't know, bribed, corrupted,
03:07:22.760
or perhaps they're incredibly naive. I'm not sure.
03:07:25.520
Well, actually, I think it's, at the end of the day, some degree of naivete, not understanding the scope of what it really means, because, you know, a lot of people that have not been direct witness of the level of atrocity or radicalism and extremism and hatred and bigotry that exists, that is embedded in that ideology, would not comprehend it unless they spend just a day,
0.87
03:07:51.580
just a day of living in Iran to understand what is really going on, how this ideology is poisonous,
0.65
03:07:59.840
it's toxic, it's beyond radiation if you had a nuclear meltdown. It is that devastating.
0.77
03:08:07.180
And I think that you are beginning to see the consequences of that radicalism and extremism
03:08:13.220
manifesting itself now on European soil itself. That level of extremism, of radical
03:08:21.300
Islam is beginning to be felt in Europe. And I warned the Europeans many, many years ago that
0.99
03:08:29.360
it would eventually end in your own backyard. I remember a conversation I had with a member of
03:08:34.600
the House of Lords in the early 80s. And I said, the way Europe looks at the Middle East is like
03:08:40.160
a far distant area. It doesn't affect us. We're fighting each other over there. And I remember
03:08:45.160
telling him, this is probably 1982, that one of these days is going to be in your own backyard.
03:08:52.600
And unfortunately, there's a certain angle of thinking here.
03:08:56.960
Mostly the left is the minute you say that it's all you're Islamophobic.
03:09:01.680
Do you think that people in Saudi Arabia or in the UAE or in Iran,
03:09:06.360
when they talk about radical Islam, they are Islamophobic?
03:09:17.940
you've been accused of painting them the wrong way that's that's the kind of hypocrisy and
03:09:22.520
double standard that exists but the reality is that yes the muslim brotherhood or the islamic
0.94
03:09:28.480
regime are fomenting extremism radicalism hatred bigotry and discrimination that's the essence of
0.88
03:09:36.780
their ideology what we want as iranians is a country where we can guarantee every single
03:09:42.720
citizens of Iran, irrespective of their ethnicity, their religious beliefs, or political affiliation,
03:09:50.040
justice and equality under the law, putting an end to any form of discrimination that this regime
03:09:57.040
has been the root cause of. And it's not just us being affected, it's affecting many others around
03:10:02.960
the world. That is not the direction to go. And it is for us, when we look at the West, what do we
03:10:09.620
look at the west for we're not looking to beijing we're not looking to my we're looking to the west
03:10:13.860
why because these are the established democracies where we assume these liberties and these values
03:10:19.620
are in fact cherished and protected but why is it that when it comes to countries like ours
03:10:24.500
all of a sudden it's no longer a question of human rights it's a question well maybe they think
03:10:28.980
differently maybe we should try to understand them this is what they were saying at the beginning
03:10:33.780
let's try to understand them they may be different we have to be able to believe in that
03:10:45.520
It's the Karl Popper paradox, the tolerance of the intolerant.
03:10:50.180
One of the things that really marked me over the last few months
03:10:55.400
was seeing a poster of the Supreme Leader, the Ayatollah,
03:11:01.560
held by a leftist in a keffiyeh at a demonstration in London,
03:11:07.700
be on the right side of history. What stage have we reached if we've got these radicals
03:11:14.420
who side with the Islamic regime over and above the protesters that are being massacred?
03:11:20.100
How do you feel about what some people are describing as the Islamization of the West?
03:11:26.660
There has been wave after wave of mass migration. Many of those have come from majority Muslim
03:11:31.780
countries. Do you think that that warning that you issued to that Lord in the 1980s,
1.00
03:11:36.660
is that coming true in terms of demographic replacement as well is this something that
03:11:40.580
concerns you of sort of losing them as ideological allies is this something that you're concerned with
03:11:45.460
well you know i would hate to see a scenario whereby we will settle for things have to get
03:11:50.100
worse before they start getting better in in that light let's say for instance that you are
03:11:58.100
one of these western countries i will use one example specifically only because there's a
03:12:03.060
the reason I'm bringing this up, Belgium, let's say. So I know this gentleman who actually wrote
03:12:09.900
a book about Iran, who is doing some research as well as some teaching. And he was telling me that
03:12:16.380
my apartment is one mile away from the Royal Palace in Brussels. Yet in my own district,
03:12:23.380
there are some Islamists that are pushing legislation to conduct not only the Sharia
03:12:29.120
law but to segregate buses so women and men ride in separate buses in brussels now i ask you as a
03:12:37.680
european have we come to a point where this country says not only you can come to a country
03:12:46.080
as a guest and instead of assimilating and respecting our values in our culture you're
03:12:51.840
You're dictating to us that we should now practice the Sharia law in Europe and incorporate
03:13:02.620
If that's the way Europe wants to end up like, then honestly, I'm lost for words.
03:13:11.020
What I'm telling you is that Iranians, and I know many other countries in the region,
03:13:18.000
desperate to liberate themselves from this extremism, from this radicalism.
0.94
03:13:23.520
That nothing good came out of this so-called Sharia law.
03:13:28.060
Because in the name of Sharia law, the first thing that Khomeini did was to undo what the
03:13:35.780
previous regime had brought in terms of equality, women, and their rights with the family law
03:13:44.980
This is the consequence of a regime that was advocating Sharia law.
0.98
03:13:50.680
Just look at Iran and the state of affairs there.
0.99
03:13:53.380
And now you think that's just a good example to follow for Europeans?
0.98
03:13:56.800
Because they'll end up like Iran pretty soon.
1.00
03:14:03.400
And all you need to do is to ask the people who have actually endured it to tell you what
03:14:08.520
I don't want the Europeans to end up being where Iranians are today only to discover
0.94
03:14:14.080
just trying to save you time but if you insist on that so be it but then you have only yourselves to
03:14:19.200
blame reza as we come to the end of this interview we've talked a lot about about facts but you you
03:14:27.440
are an iranian you are the son of the shah you're the crown prince you are one of the main figures
03:14:32.720
of the iranian opposition what do you feel when you see these images coming out of your home country
03:14:39.560
How does it feel to be in exile away from your people
03:14:46.620
Well, you know, it's not that I like to live in exile.
03:14:51.780
I wouldn't be alive today if I were back in Iran.
0.71
03:14:54.600
They would have eliminated me, and I'm not good being dead to anyone.
03:15:08.700
they know that for 47 years I stood the course. I stood committed to my values. I told them that's
03:15:16.680
what I, all I want for Iran is to have a secular democratic system to replace this religious
03:15:21.620
dictatorship. Iran and Iranians deserve better than that. A country with such level of history,
03:15:27.660
such level of culture, such level of talent. I mean, look at the world today. Yes, many Iranians
03:15:33.920
had to be forced to exile as well or migrate most of them are running the show in many of these
03:15:38.860
countries as successful entrepreneurs doctors scientists and they would have preferred to do
1.00
03:15:43.340
that back home but their only the crime was they were either jewish or bahai or muslims or maybe
0.99
03:15:50.100
a member of the lgbtq community or even atheists and they couldn't be in their country as a result
0.90
03:15:57.540
of immediate persecution that's what i say it's iran deserves so much better and we proved it
03:16:03.020
before. Iran was there. Iran was one of the most successful growing economies in the Middle East.
0.76
03:16:10.320
Other countries will come to take model out of Iran. Korean delegations will visit Iran. From
03:16:15.240
other countries, they will visit Iran. Our GDP was five times out of North Korea at the time. Today,
03:16:19.760
we'll become South Korea. We can't even compete with the first 150 economies of the world,
03:16:24.320
although we have gas and oil. Iran and its potential. That's not what Iran deserves to
03:16:30.720
have and it as an Iranian you know I'm passionate about yeah and I'm not talking about blind
03:16:36.740
nationalism you know we are in a real world we like to be able to be friends with our neighbors
03:16:43.300
we have that kind of relationship so long as it's based on mutual respect and you know fair trade
03:16:49.520
but I think Iran can do so much better and we've proven it before and I know we can do it 10 times
0.85
03:16:54.560
better if only the opportunity is given to us and I think the opportunity will come soon because
03:16:59.060
this regime is on the verge of collapse it's just a matter of time what can expedite this collapse
03:17:04.280
is for the world this time to take strong stance with the Iranian people and help us bring together
0.95
03:17:09.700
a regime that has been no good to anyone but only its own survival and is willing to do anything
03:17:15.000
including killing tens of thousands of people just to survive this cannot fly anymore so as an
03:17:21.660
Iranian we'll do whatever we have to do and I'm the first one to tell my fellow compatriots we
03:17:26.680
cannot rely on anybody else than ourselves. However, it will be so much better with less
03:17:33.440
loss of life and much faster if indeed the world decides to this time stand on the right side of
03:17:40.720
history, meaning on the side of liberating a nation that deserves better and against an evil
03:17:47.060
ideology that has been so destructive at home and abroad. This is what has taken. This is a moment
03:17:52.620
in time where history can change for the better so as Iranians we will fighting our fight we are
03:17:58.860
not waiting for America or Europe to do anything we're just telling them why don't you think of
03:18:04.380
Iranians as your best partners post regime we will be there to make sure that the world is a safer
03:18:09.660
place we'll be there to make sure that there's an immediate end to radicalism and terrorism
03:18:14.220
and nuclear threats and whatever else that the world is preoccupied with we'll be able to provide
03:18:18.780
an opportunity for our nation and your country to flourish and benefit economically to have a
03:18:24.300
better future for our next generations we will be able to provide europe with the security of energy
03:18:30.220
dependence that right now is only being controlled by by russia mostly iran can provide europe with
03:18:36.780
this energy iran can reverse the trend of migration and more migration as a result of the
03:18:41.820
status quo continuing that will already flood an already saturated europe and what have you plus
03:18:47.660
We would eliminate all this radicalism that is now affecting European communities as well.
03:18:55.280
There are so many more things at stake here than just talking about the principle of liberty.
03:19:02.780
But for God's sakes, let's cut the double standard and the hypocrisy.
03:19:06.540
This is your opportunity to tell the Iranian people, we're with you and not against you.
03:19:10.520
That's our expectation in a very pragmatic way.
03:19:13.480
and we will remember who was with us in these hard times
03:19:19.400
I wish you and the Iranian people all the very best.
03:19:34.880
So we were just messaging on WhatsApp earlier today.
03:19:42.460
in a very pragmatic way and we would remember who was with us in these hard times and who wasn't.
03:19:48.060
It's as simple as that. I wish you and the Iranian people all the very best. Thank you so much.
03:19:53.100
Thank you. Love that. That's amazing. Okay let's go to some some breaking news that's coming out
03:20:02.860
and I also want to share some messages from people in Iran. So John Fetterman
03:20:11.020
always like always stands on the right side of history i mean i don't know why he's a democrat
03:20:16.040
because he should be a republican but he always stands on the right side of history we appreciate
03:20:22.200
that i i think i i mean let me increase the volume a little bit here the volume seems a bit low
03:20:27.180
there we go clearly i was the only democrat i last year you know like why how could you allow
03:20:37.460
Iran to acquire a nuclear bomb. Now, people have always said that. Well, you know, he actually did
03:20:44.440
something to actually prevent Iran from doing that. If they have 900 pounds of near weapons
0.84
03:20:51.300
grade uranium, why wouldn't you strike that? Why wouldn't you hold them accountable that way?
03:20:55.980
And now here we are again. And now we've demonstrate that's the only thing Iran ever
0.97
03:21:01.480
responds to is strength and power and and hit him and if they want to hit him again uh because i
0.73
03:21:08.540
don't think you can't really trust and negotiate with them you can't negotiate with cancer you have
03:21:14.240
to attack it and go right at it with superior uh force all right i love how he said you can't
03:21:20.200
negotiate with cancer 100 true that's interesting because that's actually the analogy that i've been
0.84
03:21:25.140
giving um quite a bit where i'm like you know the islamic regime is like a a cancer right um that's
0.85
03:21:31.740
infected the country and in order to get rid of cancer you know sometimes you have to have surgery
1.00
03:21:39.260
and the surgery does harm the body because you have to cut in the body and you know cut the body
03:21:44.840
in order to get to to the cancer cells uh but ultimately you know you do that in order to
03:21:50.220
get rid of the cancer so that the body can heal so i really appreciate that he's also
03:21:55.360
using that that cancer analogy when it comes to islamic regime because iran really is like um
0.97
03:22:01.500
like a sick country that's been um infected by cancer trust and negotiate with them you can't
0.95
03:22:08.180
negotiate with cancer you have to attack it and go right at it with superior uh force all right
03:22:15.220
there you go and then um so now apparently a couple of congressmen um mike lawler and someone
03:22:22.820
else um they put out a joint statement um where they're basically claiming or they say that they
03:22:31.060
oppose the massey canna war powers resolution to prohibit the use of force against iran um
03:22:38.340
So apparently the Democrats, for some reason, the Democrats are trying to prevent the United States from going after the Islamic regime, which is incredibly shameful.
03:22:48.680
The Democrats are standing on the wrong side of history. Unfortunately, of course, they've always stood on the wrong side of history because it was the Democrats that supported the Ayatollahs back in 1979 and basically brought the Islamic regime to power through a coup d'etat.
03:23:06.780
So the fact that the Democrats are now putting forward a resolution because they want to delay the strike or prevent the strike, that's very shameful.
03:23:15.360
And I think the Democrats have blood on their hands.
03:23:17.940
The Democratic Party have blood on their hands.
03:23:21.540
I think the Massey Canada, I think that's like the last name.
03:23:23.960
That's probably the last name of the two maybe Democrat Congress people who are bringing this resolution forward.
03:23:30.760
So thank you to Congressman Mike Lawler and Gottheimer as well for this statement.
03:23:49.900
This is pretty much, this is the reality of being an Iranian.
1.00
03:24:00.760
um Mark Levin says get Khamenei there's nothing to negotiate I agree oh look at this guys look at
1.00
03:24:10.340
this look so look how savage these Palestinians are okay so um apparently last night last night
0.99
03:24:18.280
Iranians were holding a vigil for all of the murdered um you know murdered Iranians and then
0.95
03:24:25.200
this like Palestinian savage, like this Palestinian savage shows up and she is holding, um, a picture.
0.62
03:24:36.020
Oh, he's a rhino. Massey's a rhino. Oh, is he the one that's doing the poll? Oh, I see. Okay. So
0.96
03:24:42.220
Massey's the one doing the poll. I see. I see. Okay. So well, shame on him. Shame on him. Anyways,
03:24:48.180
I'm glad that, uh, I'm glad that, um, others are speaking out and I'm glad that John Fetterman is
03:24:54.060
speaking out as well. Thank you for the clarification. And guys, for those who don't
03:25:01.460
know, rhino means Republican in name only. So basically, that's like a term for saying like
03:25:09.100
fake Republican, basically. Yeah, so look at this, like, look at the, like, honestly, guys,
03:25:15.520
like just looking at this video, you can, you can already, you know, compare the difference
03:25:20.360
between like a civilized society versus like a savage barbarian, right? So Iranians are peacefully
03:25:27.120
holding, you know, a memorial to honor the murdered Iranians. And then this like Palestinian
1.00
03:25:33.960
jihadi shows up, you know, covering her face because she doesn't want to be recognized because
0.99
03:25:38.100
she's a coward. And then she's holding a picture of Khamenei, right? She's holding a picture
0.96
03:25:43.160
of the supreme dictator. This is like the equivalent of, I don't know, you know, let's say
03:25:48.520
Jewish people are holding a Holocaust memorial and then a Palestinian shows up holding a picture
0.55
03:25:56.060
of Hitler, right? That's the equivalent of what's happening here. So this person is garbage. This
0.76
03:26:02.900
is why I say they're garbage people. They're a garbage society. Palestinians are all terrorists
1.00
03:26:07.520
and they support the Islamic regime. These people support the murder of Iranians. So just watch this,
1.00
03:26:13.980
watch this like this garbage person like why are you even here like like this is what they
0.95
03:26:18.300
do like they're they're so backwards they're so savage right so i like how this girl she's like
0.98
03:26:33.600
this is a persian area not a terrorist area get out right so um the the the you know opinion and
0.72
03:26:40.340
feeling that, you know, like, you know, I have about Palestinians, it's not just me, it's pretty
0.97
03:26:46.300
much, you know, the vast majority of Iranians, because they're all terrorists, right? Like,
1.00
03:26:51.360
guys, this is literally, you can see the difference in civilization here, right? You know, on the left,
03:26:56.820
you have an Iranian woman, you have an Iranian woman who's cultured, who's civilized, you know,
03:27:01.440
she's not hiding her face, she's dressed normally. And then on the right, you have like a
03:27:06.120
Palestinian jihadi you know with the hijab and like wearing her like terrorist kafia scarf and
1.00
03:27:11.120
you know whatever so like literally like this is the difference between civilization and savagery
0.98
03:27:36.120
i think i think this is in london if i'm not mistaken i think it's somewhere in the uk
03:28:34.120
so the cop is saying everything here was fine your presence here is what's causing the disruption
03:29:31.000
No, don't follow, because we're echoed, she won't come off, okay?
03:29:56.000
She's wearing Iranian, and she's holding a fucking picture of the anus and sierra.
1.00
03:30:01.000
So there you go. Not even Iranian, but she, you know, she, this, this garbage terrorist person
1.00
03:30:06.760
is showing up to an Iranian memorial solely for the purpose of, you know, causing problems. Right.
1.00
03:30:16.520
And then, oh, I made another post that I'm like, antisemitism is a mental illness. So this is an
0.92
03:30:21.740
account. We all know this account, this account, like he's, he's in occupied Iran. He's been
03:30:27.700
posting a lot for years, right? So he posted recently, Dear American friends, I'm an Iranian
03:30:34.520
living in Tehran. I want to tell you that Iran is not like Afghanistan or Iraq. If your government
03:30:39.800
attacks the Ayatollah regime, we will overthrow the regime from inside immediately. This war is
0.83
03:30:45.200
not going to be long and your tax money and the lives of your soldiers will not be at risk.
0.89
03:30:49.500
Please do not oppose the war and let Iran finally be free. In the future, USA and Iran will be good
03:30:56.040
friends. And then this Dan Bilzerian weirdo, I don't know who he is, but apparently he's like
03:31:01.340
a huge anti-Semite or something. He responds and he's like, the Jewish Mossad agent is lying.
0.60
03:31:06.720
Surprise, surprise. So guys, honestly, like antisemitism, it's a mental illness because
0.97
03:31:11.900
for some reason, these weird psychos, it's like anything they don't like, it's Jewish, right?
0.99
03:31:17.960
Anything they don't like, oh, it's a Jew. Oh, it's Mossad. Oh, it's whatever, right? So just
0.97
03:31:22.360
literally the insanity of these and as you can see um no one's buying these arguments anymore
03:31:28.280
like no one's buying this nonsense because like this is the same logic like this is the same line
03:31:34.520
that they used um you know when when hamas was attacking israel so why so so what's happening
0.87
03:31:41.960
in iran now all of a sudden it's jewish massad agents right it's it's insane it's it's just
0.97
03:31:46.520
mental mental illness right um okay so this is the poll again which we've talked about um all right
0.98
03:31:56.920
more evidence of the evil islamic regime occupying iran using schools as military bases so again guys
0.84
03:32:03.400
this is a war crime right so here are a whole bunch of like best siege motorcycles that are
0.93
03:32:08.920
being um that are like being uh stored inside of a schoolyard someone filmed it secretly like
0.58
03:32:17.880
guys this is this is a war crime right this is a war crime this goes against the geneva conventions
03:32:23.720
because um you know schools and hospitals and civilian areas um are protected under the geneva
03:32:30.920
code under the geneva conventions unless unless you use them for military purposes once you use
03:32:38.280
a school or a hospital or residential area for military purposes, that that space loses its
03:32:48.100
protection and it's no longer protected under the Geneva code. So this is like the exact same
03:32:53.420
strategy that Hamas uses in Gaza. And as you can see, the Islamic regime is doing the same exact
0.95
03:33:00.720
thing um in iran all over right um oh my gosh okay so this was this is an account that many of us uh
03:33:11.840
you know followed um he's he's in iran right he's in iran he's using an iphone and he's one of the
03:33:20.000
accounts that we haven't heard from since january 8th so when you know the islamic regime shut down
03:33:25.680
the internet um many many um of our iranian friends um and freedom fighters in occupied iran
03:33:34.640
they went silent and we didn't hear from them for weeks and we actually hadn't heard
03:33:39.840
from this account cyrus the great um until yesterday and so many of us thought that um
03:33:47.680
maybe you know god forbid he was one of the people who had been murdered by the regime during the
03:33:54.320
during the massacres but he just posted yesterday like last night and I just want to share his
03:34:02.140
message with you because he's asked all of us to share this message so hello to all the dear
03:34:09.500
people of the world I am an Iranian protester fighting against the Islamic Republic regime
03:34:16.220
I want to tell you about the pain and suffering we have endured and frankly I do not care what
0.99
03:34:24.060
dan bulzerian who has just realized that in islam he can have multiple wives and has turned
0.96
03:34:30.060
involvement in the israel war into a game or that leftist homosexual who supports ballastine
03:34:37.420
or that young american who still does not understand what restrictions we face in iran
03:34:43.020
and how we struggle to connect to the free world think about me they still do not truly understand
0.97
03:34:50.140
shiism and this islamic regime and many of them in their ignorance behave foolishly
0.76
03:34:57.100
i was in a coma for more than 20 days after being struck on the head i was severely injured
1.00
03:35:03.820
and lost consciousness following surgery i lost many of my friends in rasht rasht is a city in
03:35:10.620
northern iran i witnessed the killing of good people of iran with my own eyes a massacre unlike
03:35:19.500
anything seen anywhere else in the world we are at war day and night at any moment
0.83
03:35:27.420
we may once again be captured by the islamic republic yet despite all this we will continue
1.00
03:35:34.380
our struggle we the people of iran will show the world through our courage that we will ultimately
1.00
03:35:40.940
destroy this evil regime of course we know that for many of you our lives do not matter and that
03:35:47.340
human rights no longer hold any real value in this world. In a world where the loneliness of
03:35:53.820
a monkey in China receives more attention than the massacre of more than 40,000 people in Iran,
03:35:59.580
where groups only care about human lives when it serves their own interests,
03:36:03.580
what hope can we have for human rights? But now I address foreign countries,
03:36:09.180
especially those in the Middle East. Not to seek pity, but to secure your interests
03:36:14.940
and the future of your people whether you support the people of iran or not we will continue our
0.99
03:36:21.260
fight against this islamic republic even if this regime reaches an agreement with the united states
1.00
03:36:28.620
we will continue until we rid our country of it this struggle will not only benefit us it will
0.99
03:36:35.500
help bring peace to the region and the world if you know iran's history and understand the
0.98
03:36:42.300
extremism of Shiite ideology and the rulers of the Islamic Republic, you will realize what a grave
0.83
03:36:48.760
mistake it would be to give this regime another opportunity. If this government regains money and
0.99
03:36:55.540
power, it will once again destabilize the Middle East. Now I speak directly to neighboring and
03:37:03.360
Middle Eastern countries, Turkey, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Syria, Bahrain, Jordan, and others.
03:37:12.300
we the people of iran see your efforts to preserve this cursed regime what are you afraid of
03:37:20.220
that iran may become strong again that its people may live freely once more
03:37:26.060
you should not fear this on the contrary a free iran where its people regain their strength
03:37:33.580
could make the middle east a safer place iran could attract more tourism to the region
03:37:40.220
A free Iran could be a strong and reliable partner for you in the future.
0.71
03:37:45.500
Stop supporting this regime. No matter how hard you try, you cannot end our fight against the
0.95
03:37:51.500
Islamic Republic. We will eventually succeed and when that day comes we will not forget which
0.99
03:37:57.500
countries stood beside the Islamic Republic. Our leader for the transitional period after
03:38:04.060
the islamic republic is crown prince reza pahlavi trust his words and know that by supporting him
03:38:11.820
you will help create a brighter future for the middle east stand on the right side of history
03:38:18.140
not alongside the killers of the iranian people so that was his message that i wanted to share
0.86
03:38:26.780
I'm very happy he's back we were very worried about him
1.00
03:38:33.920
oh guys okay so um it's it's that stupid British white couple again okay that you know they were
0.99
03:38:45.640
arrested by the by the regime on charges of espionage so apparently now this couple wants
0.99
03:38:54.940
to begin a hunger strike on March 4 because they're accusing the authorities of violating
03:39:01.600
the country's constitution. Really? Really? Do you think that a brutal Islamic dictatorship
03:39:07.620
that just slaughtered 90,000 people in the last month, do you think they're going to care about
03:39:13.300
your weird hunger strike? Do you think they actually, yeah, and that's the thing, violating
03:39:19.020
the countries. It's an Islamic dictatorship. There is no constitution. The regime does
1.00
03:39:25.660
anything and whatever it wants for any reason whatsoever. There is no law.
03:39:31.260
The constitution is fake. It's a name only. Do you think it's in the constitution for the regime
03:39:38.180
to murder 90,000 Iranians in a month? Anyways, so this is just, honestly, I have zero pity. I have
03:39:48.020
zero empathy i have zero pity for people like this right so the couple detained by muslim nazis
0.98
03:39:55.220
wants to do a hunger strike to accuse the islamic dictatorship of violating the constitution okay
0.98
03:40:00.900
there that will certainly show them i'm sorry but i have zero sympathy for anyone who travels to
1.00
03:40:06.820
to occupied iran you do so at your own risk like i just it's just the the stupidity the stupidity
1.00
03:40:14.500
astounds me right i mean that's like the equivalent of like i don't know let's say that the nazis
1.00
03:40:20.600
like you know let's say world war ii what do you mean how am i not showing trump's interview from
03:40:27.840
today the one from this morning during during his uh his his white house press conference i've
03:40:34.160
already i've already spoken about that what is this i already i already showed that
03:40:44.480
and we spoke about it we shared his comments on Iran unless there's
03:40:53.540
something I'm missing is there like a second interview that President Trump
03:40:56.780
did if there's a second interview let me know but I don't appreciate you just
03:41:00.740
coming in and accusing me of like not doing something how come you're not
03:41:04.280
doing this how come you're not doing you could be a little more polite about it
03:41:06.720
and maybe send me a link to what it is you want me to to show and then I can
03:41:11.000
tell you if I've already shared it or not. It's weird. Anyway, there's that.
03:41:23.160
Another, another person, another person here, little, little child.
03:41:32.600
No, anyone can post a link in the YouTube chat. Anyone, anyone, I don't know about Armin's
03:41:39.020
YouTube chat, but I think for mine, um, anyone, anyone can post the link. I think I've, I've
03:41:44.960
let, I've the links are open. The links are open. So, um, I mean, if, if people can't post links,
03:41:57.800
let me know, but I'm pretty sure that I, I changed, um, I changed the settings so that
03:42:05.540
people can post links. Because I've seen people post links there. Okay. So we just watched that
03:42:17.560
interview. We've gone over King of the Pahlavis. Okay, this is, um, this is another video of the
0.99
03:42:29.160
firefighter um the firefighter Hamid Mahdavi I just want to share this again have you seen this
03:42:39.240
viral video from Iran this is the story behind it Hamid Mahdavi was a firefighter in Iran he was
03:42:47.520
shot by regime forces as he carried injured protesters to safety he stood by his people
03:42:53.340
till the very end. On social media, Hamid would document his life. He danced, he laughed, but
03:43:00.180
above all else, he was a dedicated firefighter who devoted his life to saving others. When the
03:43:06.580
streets erupted in protest, Hamid's duty never wavered. As gunfire rained indiscriminately on
03:43:13.800
the brave protesters, he carried the wounded on his back, pulling them away from the forces of
03:43:20.140
oppression. Hamid is just one of thousands who have sacrificed their lives for dignity and
03:43:26.140
freedom. Don't let his memory fade. Carry his story forward, just like he carried his people
03:43:32.040
to safety. Have you seen this viral video? There you go. So there's a video of Hamid.
03:43:40.660
Oh, this was also good. I have some English videos. There's some videos where Iranians
03:43:46.960
explaining things in english so i just wanted to share those with you guys so we're seeing videos
03:43:51.360
coming out of iran right now showing people in large crowds playing music dancing celebrating
03:43:56.160
exactly 40 days after the regime massacred up to 100 000 iranians so what is this all about well in
03:44:03.040
shia islam the religion of the regime the 40th day after death is traditionally a moment of solemn
03:44:08.080
religious mourning what you're seeing now is people taking that tradition and deliberately
0.67
03:44:13.040
turning it on its head. No clerics in sight. Music instead of sermons. Joy instead of submission.
03:44:18.960
That inversion is the point. It's a form of rebellion against the version of Islam that's
1.00
03:44:23.520
been forced on Iranians for decades. And that 40-day mark matters because everyone knows when
1.00
03:44:28.520
it's coming. The people know and the regime knows. The so-called revolutionaries who brought about the
03:44:32.880
1979 revolution also used 40-day cycles as a tactic. So what's happening now is the rejection
03:44:38.420
of that legacy, throwing it back in the regime's face and emptying it of any authority. And the
03:44:43.940
way people are doing it means something as well. Joy as moral resistance, music and dance as
03:44:49.540
communal expression, celebration as defiance, life over death, light over darkness. These
03:44:56.480
instincts run deep in Iranian culture. They long predate the Islamic Republic and even predate
0.96
03:45:01.900
Islam itself. It's an Iranian act of resistance using an imposed calendar to reject an imposed
0.98
03:45:08.300
identity it is one of the bravest things i've ever seen okay so there's that and then there's also
03:45:19.820
country where people dance at funerals not out of joy but out of defiance there's a country
03:45:32.120
where they dance beside the graves of their loved ones
03:45:40.280
There is a country that refuses to surrender even in grief.
03:45:46.820
There is a country that stamps its feet on the graves of its youth
03:45:56.300
There is a country where freedom costs the lives of the young.
0.95
03:46:22.020
It was like a song that you play during celebrations
03:46:30.620
So I just want to say, so the caption here says before January 8th, right? So they're saying
03:46:50.520
before January 8th, this was the most cheerful and most celebratory song in the northern part
03:46:59.220
of iran this particular song so this is before the january 8 massacre and then when it gets to
03:47:04.740
the black and white part it's you know after the january 8 massacre truly a nation of lions thank
03:47:11.120
you thank you we do refer to ourselves as the lion people thank you for that
03:47:59.220
uh i can't i'm sorry i can't translate the song because it's in it's in one of the northern
03:48:12.580
dialects i think it's mazandarani if i'm not mistaken so i'm not as familiar with with the
03:48:18.340
with the northern um dialects please sorry so um
03:48:32.580
okay there's yeah it's it's mazandarani yeah it's a beautiful song but um i don't speak the
03:48:38.340
dialect so i can't translate sorry but it is it is a beautiful beautiful song okay
03:48:44.260
let's think about this for a second persian people are one of the most proudest people you'll ever
03:48:51.620
meet we're proud of our history our culture our heritage our food our hospitality just the list
03:48:57.500
is endless we love our country so much and many people can attest to that you meet a persian you
03:49:03.660
know that that persian person loves their country they do nothing but praise the country that
03:49:08.780
they're from now think how is it that these very same people are asking another country as big as
0.77
03:49:17.320
the u.s to bomb them think about that something doesn't make sense here why how bad must the
03:49:27.060
monster ruling our country be for people who have this much love for their country to be asking of
03:49:34.540
such a thing that in and of itself should tell you all you need to know about the regime
03:49:41.500
it's a very good point right we don't we don't see this as as war right like we don't see this
03:49:48.300
as an attack we see this as liberation so um we're we're asking for liberation so yeah and
03:50:17.180
She is getting ready to divorce the pie to the Laber, It is first time.

I'll have like pepperoni on pizza but like I like I'm not a fan of like I don't know lamb pork chops
04:00:40.360
or like you know like a big ham like I can't I can't do that I don't know it's just because I
04:00:45.160
wasn't raised like it's just you know not a not really in our cuisine so I can't really do like
04:00:52.720
like a big thing of ham um but like you know bacon oh I love bacon like like bacon and eggs
04:00:58.980
I can have pork and like um I can have pork and like if it's like thin thin thin sliced right
04:01:05.520
or you know sausage I like uh I like hot dogs I like hot dogs I like sausage um pulled pork yeah
04:01:12.260
I like pulled pork. I like pulled pork. That's really good.
04:01:17.560
Pulled pork is really good, but I just like, you know,
04:01:20.380
like a giant leg of ham or like, like pork chops. For some reason, I just,
04:01:27.240
There's something about the texture, but when it's like bacon is amazing.
04:01:32.500
Pork belly is fantastic, but yeah. So there you go.
04:01:37.100
There's a, there's something to lighten the mood a little bit.
04:01:42.260
all right let me find a few other things let me just bring more videos up here um
04:01:57.700
there's a few videos that um i want to translate for you guys but
04:02:01.860
i i want to wait um for armin to come back so that he can do the translating
04:02:28.320
Let me just play it for you and then I'll go back
04:02:34.240
you know crazy iranian woman said um on on islamic regime state tv
0.97
04:03:04.240
okay so i know i know all the non-iranians are like what the heck is going on
0.82
04:03:17.640
so she's saying women who covered no he's not a jinn i'll explain i'll explain so she says women
04:03:31.520
who cover themselves this is a benefit to them because it helps them uh stay younger and look
04:03:39.500
younger longer and then he's like oh yeah you know that's a good the guy's like oh that's a
04:03:48.960
good point because you know the sun doesn't hit on their skin so the sun doesn't age them right
04:03:54.160
and then she's like she's like no no no it's it's not because of the sun
04:04:01.520
so she says he says men's eyes she says the eyes of men have lasers and these laser beams when they
04:04:19.840
um come into contact with a woman's skin the laser beams coming out of the men's eyes
04:04:29.520
will um will will uh age age the age of the women
04:04:42.480
and then he's like like is this confirmed and then she's like yes yes so then this guy
04:04:48.720
you know he he you know turn it into a joke
0.79
04:04:58.720
there we go so now you guys now you guys got the joke so there's there's a lot of like ridiculous
0.99
04:05:14.320
things happening on islamic regime state tv so yeah apparently the reason that women should
0.79
04:05:20.020
wear hijab is because men's eyes have lasers and the laser beams will will age us
04:05:27.320
I can't prove it's not true. What? Where is this? I can't prove it's not true.
0.98
04:05:38.540
You know, I guess my question, my question is that, well, you know, actually, so this is,
04:05:42.660
this is, so my question to her is, okay, what if I'm like live streaming, right? Because
04:05:46.340
if I'm live streaming right now, I mean, you guys are watching me, but I'm still being protected
04:05:51.740
from, from the lasers in, in the eyes of the men who are watching this live stream right now.
0.80
04:05:57.320
right so yeah this woman is a truth teller and it i love how like when she says oh the hijab it
04:06:05.880
keeps us like younger the the guys like um oh yeah yeah because of the sun she's like no no no it's
04:06:12.120
because of the the laser the lasers coming out of the eyes of men the lasers coming out of the eyes
04:06:41.880
there's another one from islamic regime state tv
04:07:00.460
so she she says look at what channel one is posting so um even like iran
04:07:11.860
in occupied Iran right now are like, they're like, what the heck is going on Islamic regime
04:07:17.840
state TV? Let me play it for you. And then, and then I'll provide some context, right?
04:07:41.860
So, um, the Islamic regime, um, because they know that the, you know, people hate them and
04:07:59.520
want to overthrow them. Yeah, exactly. That, that, that is Haram. That's the thing that
0.95
04:08:04.220
that's Haram. That's Haram. Right. So now the Islamic regime is trying to like normalize
04:08:11.800
i guess they're trying to normalize and then they have like a mullah dancing with like a woman
0.91
04:08:19.560
it's totally haram yeah like like dancing dancing is is haram no one's supposed to dance
04:08:27.880
but like the regime is literally willing to like do anything and everything in order to
04:08:37.320
uh in order to like you know stay alive i guess right but like it's just so nasty like oh
04:08:53.480
and then and then what he's saying is like isn't it so beautiful
04:08:56.840
for a man to dance with with his partner and then she's like so much
04:09:03.640
she's like i don't know it's like it's like it it what does that even mean
04:09:12.520
this is why we need armin to translate i don't know she's like it's like it's like the best
04:09:18.040
thing in the world what what does he say there oh and then and then and then he's like god bless you
04:09:30.440
god bless you and then she's like yeah yeah me too wait why did she say man i'm having tour
04:09:39.160
that's so weird if when he says god bless you she's like man i'm having tour
04:09:53.560
guys they're dancing and it's like ramadan too right
04:10:00.440
oh say a prayer for i don't know man we're gonna show that to armin
04:10:04.600
oh my gosh this is so true someone someone had a really good comment here wait
04:10:26.300

04:10:35.120
and even even like this like you know like everyone's in shock everyone's like what
0.82
04:10:41.560

04:13:12.080
okay there you go um you're you're running to mecca now after that song
04:13:26.340
Oh my gosh. Okay. All right. Let's go to some, some news now. I think, I think we've cheered
04:13:35.300
up the, the, the mood in the chat, um, enough because I mean, I told you guys, I told you guys
04:13:42.500
it's, um, it's rough. It's rough, right? Like my, my Instagram timeline is, is an emotional roller
04:13:48.700
coaster of like really, really difficult things. And then, you know, very funny things. So, um,
04:13:54.720
like you know all those all those videos i showed you that were really emotional
04:13:58.240
um were difficult it's that's literally my instagram timeline it's like one moment i'm
04:14:02.800
laughing the other moment um i'm crying getting emotional because that's just uh
04:14:17.040
so shin shin's a pretty good account well very good account actually so they're saying
04:14:21.360
The U.S. Air Force AMC heavy lifter C-5 en route to Camp Le Mounier in Djibouti.
04:14:35.640
So more assets, more assets being moved around.
04:14:37.940
so um guys after the news after the news of the um f4 crash last night a lot of iranians are
04:14:54.920
joking around and they're basically saying the war hasn't even started yet and the islamic
04:15:00.160
regime is already down one person right like they're already down one casualty so
04:15:12.500
guys make sure everyone everyone goes here everyone everyone responds to this poll
04:15:21.460
as you can see i've already responded so i have the check mark there
04:15:25.780
um let me put the link here in the youtube chat
04:15:30.160
so please make sure and then let me just do this
04:15:39.720
I already retweeted this but I'm going to do it again if you haven't
04:16:00.300
so iranians in occupied iran are now sending photos to media outlets so this is a homemade
04:16:10.880
flag this is a homemade flag and you can see it's got the it's it's the crowned line and sun
04:16:18.640
the one that's you know behind my head there that one there right so um Iranians are
04:16:26.500
um sharing these photos basically to you know tell others tell each other and tell the world
04:16:33.600
that um guys I'm not going to post interviews with like of random people this is this is Iran
04:16:43.820
Revolution Live. I'm only going to focus on actual Iranian news. I actually don't care
04:16:48.940
what podcasters or other people say, especially if they're talking nonsense. Like, that's not
04:16:56.220
the purpose of this channel. The purpose of this channel is to focus on Iran and, you know,
04:17:01.880
legitimate news. And then, of course, things that we think is good to share in terms of
04:17:07.620
sharing Iranian context and culture. But I have zero interest in platforming,
04:17:11.960
um, I don't know, some like crazy jihadi Islamist who's talking against, um, Iranians and supports
0.90
04:17:18.140
the rich. I have zero interest in, in, you know, doing that because those people exist. They're
0.97
04:17:22.820
going to exist regardless. And, um, there's no point in giving them any attention. Petito is
04:17:29.560
great. Petito messaged me earlier today. Um, he's great just, you know, doing things. So,
04:18:03.480
you can see that his friends wrote Javid Shah, right?
04:18:19.540
And then, wow, like literally just, this is very brave.
04:18:27.380
but you can see like he's out in public, right?
04:18:33.480
you know, and all these Iranians are being targeted by the regime, right? Because they
1.00
04:18:37.560
don't want, they don't want, the regime doesn't want Iranians to go out and honor the murdered.

04:18:43.680
So this is incredibly brave for him to do this. I haven't seen 2C yet. I haven't seen 2C,
04:18:50.040
unfortunately. I'm keeping, let me, let me go check his channel. I don't know, maybe he's busy.
04:19:10.640
yeah no nothing yet maybe he'll go live later tonight
04:19:20.420
and then of course there's this one and then this one
04:19:24.200
so again the the bravery the bravery of um iranian people is
04:19:40.520
so this one says they played a cheerful song and we sank into the deepest sorrow
04:19:46.200
that the saddest instrument played within our being guys so again like all these cheerful songs
04:19:51.960
um it's uh they they have like they have a new meaning right so it's like these
04:20:00.460
these cheerful songs it it's oh it's it's rough
0.99
04:20:21.960
Guys, so what she's doing here, okay, this is what Iranians do at wedding ceremonies,
1.00
04:20:37.920
right? So, um, when people are getting married, a young couple, what they do is
1.00
04:20:45.980
Um, so guys, what this is, this is, um, this is, um, they're, they're, they're rubbing sugar cubes.
04:21:04.860
So one of the traditions during an Iranian marriage ceremony is where, you know, the bride and groom are sitting in front of like this elaborate spread.
04:21:20.460
And there's various things on the spread that, you know, symbolize different things.
04:21:24.200
And so at one point, you know, the family members come and they hold a white cloth over
04:21:41.980
And you know, this is like, it's like sprinkling, sprinkling, is it for, act, act, yeah, engagement.
04:21:49.940
so um they they rub the sugar sugar cubes and the sugar basically like starts sprinkling down
04:21:59.840
and um it basically symbolizes you know um having a sweet life right it's it's like you know giving
04:22:07.680
um sweetness to to the life to the wedding to the relationship right so it's kind of like a way
04:22:13.660
like a symbolic, uh, traditional way of, um, you know, blessing, blessing, um, the couple. And
04:22:20.000
it's, it's a pre-Islamic, um, pre-Islamic tradition, right. It has nothing to do with
04:22:23.680
Islam. It's, it's Iranian culture. So, um, they're holding, you know, I guess a wedding ceremony
04:22:30.160
for, um, this murdered, this, this, you know, Iranian who was murdered. Um, and, and it's,
0.52
04:22:38.080
it's symbolic because basically what Iranians are doing with this is they're saying that
04:22:43.640
this isn't a funeral. This person, by sacrificing themselves, they're now married to the land.
04:22:56.140
They're married to Iran. And so by doing this, they're basically saying that this hero of Iran
04:23:08.820
is now married to Iran. And we're going to honor that marriage
04:23:13.120
by holding, you know, a wedding ceremony over their grave. That's what this is.
04:24:38.820
so that was that was him that was him before he was murdered
04:25:08.820
interesting so president trump president trump released footage of venezuela on truth social
04:26:47.320
so here's a memorial oh the video's not working video's not working
04:27:17.320
Okay, so this is, you know, I'm going to hold off on this one until Armin comes so that
04:27:26.640
he can translate because this is a five minute long and we appreciate Armin translations
04:27:39.820
I'll just put it, put the link there so he can see it.
04:27:48.100
so a video tamed by iran international shows that during the memorial ceremony for the late
04:28:02.460
the speaker referring to the words from the late singer-songwriter
04:28:15.840
Shah Samar. So guys, remember, Fereidun Farukhzad
04:28:38.020
so she's saying he said that death is not so bitter and life is not so sweet that one must
04:28:54.720
give up their uh their honor right so basically they're saying don't sell your honor right
04:29:08.020
So then she says poetry, which I share, like I can't translate the poetry part, but then
04:29:36.480
she says Javed. Oh, it's Hafez. Yeah. Javed. And then Shaw. And then here people are chanting
04:29:42.900
every person that's killed. A thousand people are behind.
04:29:55.200
Here we go. Okay. I want to now go to, I think Fox News just posted something.
04:30:06.480
I want to I want to watch this because Fox News posted this about an hour ago.
04:30:13.220
I think it probably has to do with what we saw this morning.
04:30:17.900
But because it's new, you know, let's just watch it again.
04:30:23.020
The Lord President Trump turning up the heat on Tehran.
04:30:25.780
His ultimatum, strike a deal or bad things will happen.
0.62
04:30:29.320
Good morning. I'm Dana Perino. Bill Hemmer is off today. Hi, Bill.
04:30:32.460
Hey, Dana. Good morning to you. Happy Friday to you as well.
04:30:37.660
The president says he's giving Iran 10 to 15 days to give up their nuclear program.
04:30:41.700
This, as American military assets are flooding into the Middle East
04:30:45.300
in what is reportedly the biggest buildup since the Iraq war back in 2003.
04:30:50.380
So the Wall Street Journal reports President Trump is weighing a limited strike to force the regime's hand.
04:30:56.060
The president says the ball is in Iran's court.
04:30:59.880
What is the goal if there is a U.S. military strike?
04:31:03.780
to make a deal or we're going to get a deal one way or the other. I'm not going to talk to you
04:31:10.320
about that, but we're either going to get a deal or it's going to be unfortunate for them.
04:31:20.700
I would think there would be enough time, 10, 15 days, pretty much maximum.
04:31:26.300
And Jackie Heinrich is joining us live at the White House with more on this. Jackie,
04:31:29.840
good morning to you. Good morning, Bill. For days, U.S. officials have said Iran is ignoring
04:31:35.060
the U.S. red lines on zero nuclear enrichment, instead floating proposals that would allow it
04:31:40.840
to continue for civilian use or suspend it only for the duration of President Trump's term.
04:31:46.900
And now Iran this morning is out with a bold new claim that the U.S. isn't asking for zero
04:31:52.040
enrichment at all. The U.S. side has not asked for zero enrichment. What we are now talking about
04:32:00.040
is how to make sure that Iran's nuclear program, including enrichment, is peaceful and would remain
04:32:07.100
peaceful forever. And in return, and, you know, Iran, you know, does some confidence-building
04:32:16.480
measures to ensure that its program would remain peaceful. President Trump has said in no uncertain
04:32:23.440
terms that the U.S. will accept nothing less than zero enrichment, including saying this on camera.
04:32:29.400
Here's a flashback to last week. Would you accept anything less than zero nuclear enrichment?
04:32:35.160
We don't want any enrichment. We don't want enrichment. President Trump told reporters
04:32:40.560
yesterday Iran has a very short window to agree to a deal about 10 to 15 days amid new claims
04:32:45.520
from a prominent Iranian opposition figure that Iran is preparing for war and rebuilding its
04:32:50.280
nuclear sites, despite engaging in these talks with the U.S. The gridlock reportedly prompting
04:32:55.020
President Trump to consider a limited initial strike to force Iran into agreement. The Wall
04:32:59.780
Street Journal writing, the opening assault, which if authorized could come within days,
04:33:03.680
would target a few military or government sites. People familiar with the matter said,
04:33:07.400
if Iran refused to comply with Trump's directive to end its nuclear enrichment,
04:33:11.160
the U.S. would respond with a broad campaign against regime facilities potentially aimed at toppling the Tehran regime.
0.61
04:33:18.180
Within days, the world's largest aircraft carrier, the USS Gerald R. Ford, will reach the eastern Mediterranean.
04:33:23.440
As of last night, it had reached the Strait of Gibraltar.
0.82
04:33:26.620
Meantime, Iran this morning issued a fresh threat to the U.S.,
04:33:30.140
saying that if the U.S. continues to talk to Iran with the language of Boers,
04:33:34.600
Iran will reciprocate with the same language.
0.59
04:33:40.540
Jackie Heinrich, live at the White House this morning. Jackie, thank you.
04:33:43.340
Thank you, Bill. And joining us now is State Department spokesman Tommy Pickett. Thanks for being here.
04:33:48.940
Okay, I just, I need to revisit. I need to revisit something here because, like, at all.
04:33:59.180
The US side has not asked for zero enrichment. What we are now talking about is how to make sure
04:34:05.980
that iran's nuclear program including enrichment is peaceful and would remain peaceful forever
04:34:13.100
and in return and you know iran you know does some uh confidence building measures
04:34:23.020
to ensure that its program would remain peaceful
04:34:25.260
really really no both enrichment and our defense capabilities are our legitimate rights
04:34:36.960
no as a as a full and committed member of npt we have every right to do enrichment for peaceful
04:34:44.360
purposes and you cannot tell another country that you shouldn't exercise your right otherwise you
04:34:49.860
will be attacked we are two months away from enriching weapons grade uranium
04:35:08.900
it will be used only for medical research and clean energy it will it will and will certainly
04:35:18.100
never be used to attack is oh boy yeah peaceful purposes okay
0.92
04:35:34.660
president trump has said in did you notice how his tone has changed as well so like a few weeks ago
04:35:40.980
a few weeks ago he was saying we have every right to you know enrich uranium for peaceful
04:35:47.220
purposes and no one has the right no one has the right to tell us what we can or cannot do
04:35:53.060
and now he's like he's begging u.s side has not asked for zero enrichment what we are now talking
04:36:00.340
about is how to make sure that iran's nuclear program including enrichment is peaceful and
04:36:07.300
would remain peaceful forever and in return and you know uh Iran uh you know does some
04:36:17.300
the reporter is not impressed he does not he does not believe he does not believe
04:36:22.340
alchi right uh confidence building measures uh to ensure that its program would remain peaceful
04:36:30.260
president trump has said in no uncertain terms that the u.s will accept nothing less than zero
04:36:35.300
enrichment, including saying this on camera. Here's a flashback to last week.
04:36:40.760
Would you accept anything less than zero nuclear enrichment?
04:36:43.940
We don't want any enrichment. We don't want enrichment.
04:36:48.000
President Trump told reporters yesterday Iran has a very short window to agree to a deal,
04:36:52.220
about 10 to 15 days amid new claims from a prominent Iranian opposition figure
04:36:56.380
that Iran is preparing for war and rebuilding its nuclear sites despite engaging in these
04:37:01.380
talks with the U.S. The gridlock reportedly prompting President Trump to consider a limited
04:37:05.440
initial strike to force Iran into agreement. The Wall Street Journal writing, the opening
04:37:10.320
assault, which if authorized could come within days, would target a few military or government
04:37:14.180
sites. People familiar with the matter said, if Iran refused to comply with Trump's directive to
04:37:19.000
end its nuclear enrichment, the U.S. would respond with a broad campaign against regime facilities

04:37:29.060

the Strait of Gibraltar. Meantime, Iran this morning issued a fresh threat to the U.S. saying
04:37:39.220
that if the U.S. continues to talk to Iran with the language of force, Iran will reciprocate with
04:37:45.520
the same language. Bill. Yep, something's got to give soon. Jackie Heinrich live at the White House
04:37:51.100
this morning. Jackie, thank you. Thank you, Bill. And joining us now is State Department spokesman
04:37:54.900
Tommy Piggott, thanks for being here today. Can you help us understand what precisely is the
04:37:59.700
problem that President Trump is trying to solve here? Well, look, it's been clear from the beginning
04:38:04.940
of this administration that Iran's, the stabilizing actions of the regime there must end. And we've
0.73
04:38:10.920
been very clear about what those destabilizing actions are. We've had a maximum pressure policy
04:38:14.720
from the beginning of this administration that was bent on denying the Iranian regime the revenue
04:38:18.860
they need to do things such as fund their nuclear weapons program, such as fund terrorist proxies
04:38:23.560
across the region, such as fund their ballistic missile program. You have a regime in Iran
0.85
04:38:28.040
that instead of funding water, food and energy infrastructure, wasted their vast wealth on
0.99
04:38:32.180
these malign activities. And President Trump has been very clear that those malign activities
04:38:38.260
The foreign minister was on Morning Joe. I think you might have seen that just now in
04:38:41.240
Jackie's piece. He had one other thing to say about the military buildup.
04:38:47.000
a win-win deal is when u.s is absolutely confident that iran's nuclear program is peaceful and would
04:38:55.560
remain peaceful and for iran sanctions are lifted i'm not uh you know referring to military build
04:39:03.560
up around us because that is absolutely unnecessary and unhelpful a diplomatic solution is at our reach
04:39:11.560
oh oh so um the military buildup is unhelpful maybe the reason that you look like a scared
04:39:22.720
cockroach right now is because of the military buildup right it's because of the military
04:39:28.680
buildup right peace through strength so i i don't know i don't know what's going on in these
04:39:35.040
negotiations, but for some reason, the negotiations have been going so bad that the military buildup
04:39:42.720
is, like, increasing. And President Trump, even now, just said 10 days to, like, 10 to 15 days,
04:39:50.700
right? That's, um, that's this guy, like, that's, that's Arakchi. Arakchi has done such a bad job
04:40:01.700
at negotiating that's who know you know what maybe he's a massad agent maybe he's maybe he's
04:40:09.720
like i don't know um maybe he's tanking the negotiations on purpose because he wants the
04:40:16.320
regime to attack or sorry the united states to attack right so who knows maybe he's sabotaging
04:40:23.020
the negotiations because he's a massad agent and this was like this was a strategy all along who
04:40:28.440
knows, right? But whatever's going on, whatever's going on, the negotiations are so bad, are so bad
04:40:35.680
that, you know, it's made, it's made the United States send even more military assets there,
04:40:43.840
right? There seem to be, at least from his perspective, trying to say that there's
04:40:50.680
confusion about zero enrichment. Is the president's policy zero enrichment?
04:40:55.740
Well, the president has spoken to this. The bottom line is that the Iranian regime
0.97
04:41:00.600
cannot have a nuclear weapon. The president has been very clear. It's something he repeated
04:41:04.580
just yesterday at the Board of Peace meeting, that historic meeting that Global Coalition
04:41:09.060
brought together. He is pursuing peace. He wants to be a peacemaker. He is a peacemaker. He's a
04:41:13.140
dealmaker. But you cannot have peace in the Middle East if the Iranian regime has a nuclear weapon.
0.97
04:41:18.540
That's the bottom line. The president has been very clear on that.
0.88
04:41:21.260
OK, here's a map of the military assets that are now in the region. So
04:41:24.580
the president um having building up some firepower in the region if he needs it
04:41:29.200
right so he's saying he has flexibility when he says 10 to 50 guys the massad agent was a joke
04:41:34.440
because everyone like everyone says ghani is a joke so like it's like an inside it's like an
04:41:40.000
inside joke for israelis and iranians where they say ghani is a massad agent so now it's like anyone
04:41:45.720
who does like a terrible job we're like oh maybe they're massad right it's it's a joke i don't i
04:41:50.560
I don't actually think he's Mossad. I just think he's an idiot.
1.00
04:41:58.560
Oh, look at this. Look at all the naval assets.
1.00
04:42:13.560
Okay, so someone is saying, Justin says, Trump has to say limited strike
04:42:18.560
Because the president cannot declare war. Only Congress can declare war. However, the president does have authority to defend against immediate, clear and present dangerous threats.
04:42:27.880
Yes. And a few weeks ago. Last week, maybe I can't remember, President Trump came out with that like that that executive order fact sheet where he basically confirmed that there is an ongoing ongoing threat and that threat has actually escalated.
04:42:46.600
right um and you know to be quite frank we don't want war and we don't see this as a war anyway
04:42:53.780
right like we we see this as um as liberation right from our end we see it as liberation
04:43:00.160
yeah no i agree it's it's definitely definitely not not war
04:43:05.340
teen days does he mean from today well that's up to the president the president is going to make
04:43:15.260
that ultimate decision i'm not going to preview what he might say but i think it's important to
04:43:19.100
say that well someone commented that we're not seeing the submarines yeah that's probably on
04:43:24.020
purpose that's probably on purpose right there's probably a very good reason why we're not seeing
04:43:29.500
the submarines yeah it's a rescue mission it's not war it's a rescue mission and we iranians
04:43:36.120
um love it you know what after this after this i'll play some of the other memes for you
04:43:45.460
The last time the Iranian regime refused to make a deal, we saw Operation Midnight Hammer.
0.76
04:43:50.620
So if anyone doubts that the president means what he says, they just need to look at history to see that he does.
04:43:54.200
And do you feel that the military might gives diplomacy more of a push?
04:43:59.460
Well, fundamentally, President Trump believes in peace through strength.
04:44:02.500
When it comes to our force posture in the region, Secretary Rubio has described that our force posture reflects the interest we have in the region,
04:44:08.540
reflects the fact that there are U.S. troops in the region, reflects the fact that there are
04:44:12.140
allies in the region. But fundamentally, President Trump has built the most powerful military in the
04:44:17.060
history of the world, but believes in peace through strength. We see it around the world
04:44:21.040
when it comes to solving conflicts and pursuing our national interests.
04:44:23.680
One last question. When the protesters so bravely went out and said, we've had enough,
04:44:30.140
and the president said, help is on the way, is that help included in this planning,
04:44:36.800
whatever the 10 to 15 days is in this diplomacy. Does something happen for those people who are
04:44:43.080
desperately seeking change and more freedom in this plan?
04:44:48.100
Well, a few weeks ago, we saw President Trump stop the execution of hundreds of protesters.
04:44:52.560
We've seen action from the State Department's perspective about leveling pressure against
04:44:56.880
those officials or individuals that were involved in the brutal suppression of those protesters.
04:45:01.120
We've seen those actions being taken here from this administration already. This is something
04:45:04.960
the president has been monitoring incredibly closely he's been very clear with the regime
04:45:09.440
it's something he continues to monitor among all these different issues i've already been
04:45:13.520
discussing here all right tommy pickett thank you so much i'm sure you'll have a very busy weekend
04:45:17.440
thank you thanks thanks for having me on there you go um so all right let me go to some let me
04:45:27.680
go to some of the memes while we're waiting for armin to come back um okay here's the first one
04:45:34.960
so um so in in this one in this one the the b2 so someone like you know made a voice for the b2
04:46:00.640
bomber and and they're saying ali kojai which means ali where are you okay
04:46:19.280
so they're saying ali kojai which means ali where are you ali is of course referring
04:46:24.880
okay b2 b1 i'm sorry i'm sorry one of the one of the one of the you know bombers i'm sorry i don't
04:46:33.600
know which one it is but um it's the joke here is that iranians are taking footage of like american
04:46:40.820
military warcraft and they're turning them into memes right it means about like attacking the
04:46:46.060
islamic regime so in this one it's it's like someone um someone is like pretending to be the
04:46:52.900
voice of okay it okay major saying it was a b2 all right so the flying dorito is a b2
04:47:00.020
so someone made like you know someone um pretended that like the b2 is speaking
04:47:06.100
and the b2 is saying ali kojoy ali and then as it's flying over it's like saying ali but it's
04:47:13.540
like uh making like an airplane sound like ali right so uh let's watch that again so now you
04:47:21.460
know what he's saying so he's like so it's like the the the b2 is like flying
0.99
04:47:43.700
so there's one okay so so the next one i have to explain the next one as well
04:48:09.300
Okay. So the next one is a play on words. Okay. So the, the, the song, the song is like a love
04:48:16.340
song right so it's this woman and she's singing and in that context means play music
0.62
04:48:25.540
so she's like play music for me so that i can dance but can also mean hit it right so someone
04:48:34.740
took the lyrics of that song and now they have like like the b2 bomber and then you hear the
04:48:41.460
woman singing in persian she's like hit it so i can dance right so it's it's a play on words
04:48:46.980
um where the song originally means you know bizan to get like like play the music but in this
04:48:54.740
context it's like bizan means like bomb them bomb them so she so that it's like bomb them so i can
04:49:30.140
that one it as you can tell it's like a really really old song but like there's there's so many
0.99
04:49:36.860
like songs now that iranians are like using to um to uh you know make memes about the b2s so
04:49:48.440
i'll play this one again because i know the iranians enjoy this one
04:50:00.140
also um i have a question for you know all the americans here do you know any other country
04:50:08.060
that literally makes memes where they're encouraging americans to like
04:50:12.860
destroy destroy the you know the people in charge like this is how much iranians first of all not
04:50:19.340
only hate the islamic regime but this is how much we love you guys right so there's never been any
04:50:24.940
hatred and and in fact iranians are like these are some of the most popular like viral memes
04:50:30.620
on instagram right now on iranian uh like iranian instagram right so when i tell you that i have like
04:50:37.100
you know like iranians have and this is dark humor right like we're basically taking like this is an
04:50:42.780
old song this is an old old song um and literally she's like you know play music you know play the
04:50:49.500
drums so that i can dance play the drums but but the you know bizan bizan could mean play music
04:50:57.020
but it could also mean um bomb bums so when you add the b2 bomber there um it gives the song a
04:51:32.620
there you go so there's that one okay and then now there's
04:51:50.380
which means I'm coming to Tehran. So again, you know, it's just supposed to be like a fun,
04:51:58.420
fun chill song about, you know, someone who's visiting Iran, right? So he's like,
04:52:08.080
which means I'm coming to Tehran. And again, Iranians have taken B2 footage,
0.98
04:52:14.840
and they've put it to this music. So here you go.
1.00
04:53:28.420
and then there's there's mush ali right there's rat there's mouse
04:53:34.020
and you know what's really you know what's really funny about that song
04:53:40.900
as well oh wait let me let me tell armin oh take your time
04:53:57.380
all right so guys see when armin's not here we get to have some fun when armin's not here we
04:54:06.320
get to have some fun so you know what's really funny about this song is because that like it's
04:54:11.660
the song is literally about like it's like about springtime about the persian new year
04:54:16.360
about like flowers and you know like things like that right so let me translate for you
04:54:27.380
so he's like a bahar oh spring oh so oh spring oh sky
04:54:41.640
and then i yell oh oh my love oh my love oh my love so basically okay so basically the lyrics are
04:54:50.820
like oh spring oh sky um I'm here to give presents to everyone and I yell from the
04:54:58.360
bottom of my heart my dear my dear my dear I'm coming to Tehran I'm coming to Tehran
04:55:47.220
And then that part is like, which means I'm going to Tehran because of my love.
04:55:54.580
And then at that point with, you know, when they say my love, it's of course, right?
0.93
04:56:00.420
So basically Iranians are trolling the regime and they're saying like, you know, the Americans
0.79
04:56:05.300
are coming to, you know, to say hello to Mushali in Tehran.
0.96
04:56:14.900
you guys are you are you guys already know the pad and this song so i'll play the pad
04:56:20.360
and it for you very very quickly remember pad and it means means bird right
04:56:25.360
and of course uh a lot of people call um you know the the the bombers and the fighter jets birds so
04:56:35.920
but saying my beautiful bird when will you come
04:56:54.900
so there's there's the one yeah most of the songs are like from the 80s too so it's like
04:57:13.360
these are like our childhood songs and they're all they're all literally being turned into like
04:57:19.600
you know memes about destroying the the regime right oh and then of course we also have one
04:57:25.560
for prime minister netanyahu which is really really funny you choose not donkey or elephant
04:57:34.600
but the lamb. Okay. I'm not sure what that's referring to, but
04:57:40.720
yes, lamb is delicious. I would not recommend eating donkey or elephant. Okay. Let me play
04:57:50.860
this one first so that the Iranians can enjoy this one, and then I'll go back and I'll explain this.
04:58:04.600
okay so yeah okay um so that one uh that that one is uh for for prime minister uh netanyahu
04:58:26.200
And the song lyrics, the song lyrics say, which means don't forget about our arrangement. Right. So basically, it's like, you know, we had plans to meet. So the song is basically saying, we had plans to meet. Don't forget about our plans to meet. Don't be late. We're waiting for you. Right. So Iranians are also saying to Israel, you know, like, you know, we still have plans. Don't be late. We're waiting for you.
04:58:56.200
yeah so basically yeah we have it oh exactly that's what it is that's what it is so
04:59:06.880
it's in the context of like we have a date right we have a date and you know don't be late we're
04:59:14.000
waiting for you so like we're waiting for you to come to like you know destroy the regime right
04:59:27.920
so weird but hilarious yeah well welcome to welcome to iranian humor welcome to iranian
04:59:37.920
humor um i have i have a number of serious videos as well i'm waiting for armin to come
04:59:42.600
back so he can translate them armin's taking a little bit of a break uh to to eat dinner
04:59:47.100
uh oh gosh okay let me let me share a few more while we're waiting
04:59:53.700
um oh for some reason iranians really like this one okay let me remove these ones
05:00:05.580
so um one of the things that iranians do in occupied iran is like when they want to like
05:00:24.180
protest the mullahs they will um they'll they'll like flip their turbid so they'll like flip the
05:00:29.420
turbid off of their head right as a way to basically tell the mullahs we don't want you
0.90
05:00:33.760
apparently this mullah went to london england and then the horse flipped the the the turban
05:00:40.760
off of the mullah's head and apparently this horse has now gone viral among iranians because
05:00:45.780
all the iranians are like this horse is one of us now because the horse flipped the turban off the
05:00:50.600
so he's saying not only oh by the way this like so for some reason this watermelon so the iranian
05:01:17.480
man eating a watermelon while laughing this is like a meme thing so whenever iranians make like um
05:01:31.160
so that's become like a thing so whenever like iranians make a meme
05:01:34.600
they'll add the watermelon eating guy um and then you know there you go hey arvin welcome back
05:01:44.520
hey i'm here to ruin the fun oh no arvin's back oh no no no that's fine that's fine i actually
05:01:55.960
have a few videos for you oh before before i do have like i do have some serious things
05:02:02.600
um that i would like you to translate uh two two video requests for me um but before we do that i
05:02:09.480
just want yeah i inhaled my food by the way instead of eating it why i feel terrible you
05:02:16.200
could have taken your time you could have taken your time but okay let me share these these three
05:02:20.760
videos with you well two videos because you've already seen the singing mullah um here's the
05:02:55.240
oh god that's so good oh my god that's perfect oh my god fantastic love it wait did you translate
05:03:17.080
that for people do they know what happened you know what i did but why don't you translate
05:03:20.680
again for uh people who've just joined us okay okay let's do this
05:03:37.560
so the women who wear the hijab this hijab is in their own benefit they will remain younger
0.96
05:03:42.680
so the so the the host is trying to support what he's just saying like oh yeah for for example
05:03:51.640
their their skin would not be exposed by sunlight so maybe that's how they're going to remain younger
05:03:57.720
is she like not just because of that from the eyes of man there is like a radiation that comes
0.85
05:04:08.380
from the eyes of man so when it when it when it hits the face of a woman it would bring
0.93
05:04:18.700
early aging early aging to the face of the woman when that when that when those laser
05:04:24.940
hits your face but i didn't know that i should warn my wife so he says is there evidence for
05:04:34.460
this and she says like yes yes yes and now this
05:04:37.340
oh by the way this is the this is this video is something that we put at the end of any funny
05:04:58.080
video this guy eating a watermelon because the way he laughs is just so enjoyable that now he
05:05:04.260
has turned into an iranian meme we just put at the we just put him at the end of any uh funny video
05:05:10.740
but but i have a question how how does that cancel when you marry somebody like or because
05:05:19.700
i don't know women don't wear their hijab in front of their husbands instead of their
0.85
05:05:23.460
in front of their fathers in front of their brothers in front of their sons
05:05:27.620
so when like when you when you get married does it does it laser not affect you anymore like how
05:05:33.220
does that work i don't know i don't know you have to i don't know you have to figure that one out
05:05:38.580
but yeah like we love we love the watermelon laughing guy because like we could be watching
05:05:42.980
a video and it's super hilarious and then if he comes on at the end it's like it makes us laugh
05:05:47.780
even harder because he's just super super funny okay i have one more for you um i'll play it once
05:05:54.100
and then you can go back and you can translate it and please armin uh try not to laugh at this one
05:05:58.420
one this is this is very this is a very serious one so no laughing allowed okay no
05:06:29.680
each weekend oh my god um by the way goldie this video i've seen it already the video of the
05:06:40.320
mullah dancing this is the islamic republic's attempts to make more laws look romantic and
05:06:48.640
like something appealing and it turned into a vibe like so many people were making fun of it
0.92
05:06:55.360
because it was it just looks so pathetic but i love this girl's accent like like a
05:07:11.920
i think i think she's actually more interesting than the video she's making fun of the way she
05:07:18.320
tags i love her oh my god it's so honey she or she was here
05:07:27.920
she does she does okay she was oh she does these have such an amazing accent i love that um
05:07:36.080
okay so those are the two sort of like fun fun things i wanted to to share
05:07:40.480
um i have something that is more serious um and it is it is a little um
0.99
05:07:46.400
um, difficult, but I, I, so this came across my Instagram last night and it's an Iranian woman
05:07:54.540
and she's speaking about something. And then even like at the beginning of her video, she's,
05:07:59.300
she's, and then I noticed that she's following me, um, on Instagram. And then at the beginning
05:08:03.680
of her video, she says, my English isn't the greatest. Um, but I'm hoping that, you know,
05:08:08.160
friends see this video and they translate it, um, to English so that, you know, they can,
05:08:13.980
they can share my my message and so um i you know posted a comment under her video and i was like
05:08:19.660
we will 100 um share this on our english live stream and and translate this so um
05:08:27.500
it's it's a long video do you think we should just play it
05:08:31.020
once and then and then go back and watch it again or should we just translate as we go through i
05:08:36.060
think we could just translate as we go through how long is it i honestly i don't even remember
05:08:41.020
um oh it's it's like two and a half minutes okay here it's it's this one yeah i think it's a
05:08:50.320
translator okay yeah maybe just go ahead and translate because the message like we want to
05:08:54.560
translate for english-speaking people anyway so um oh she sent this and she wanted translated
05:09:00.220
and you've so so she just posted this on her instagram page and then i came across it when
05:09:07.760
was scrolling through videos oh thank you goldie thank you for doing this okay let's see what she
05:09:13.360
has to say so salutations to you my friends i don't i don't know how to speak english
05:09:37.760
The thing that I'm going to say, please translate.
05:09:52.740
but what it means, I think, is that I'm burning from inside.
05:10:07.760
so he's saying for red cross aren't you supposed to be available during war you were available for
05:10:21.240
gaza like you were you sent them you sent them medicine and food from above she said you were
05:10:33.820
there with cameras monitoring and recording everything yeah yes yes so from above you
05:10:38.660
were monitoring things from camera from above and you would send them medicine and food
05:11:03.820
Why is there nobody from Red Cross inside our prisons?
05:11:13.820
Why are no people here with cameras in their hands?
05:11:17.820
Where are the international journalists from around the world?
05:11:26.820
Why are you not reporting on the Iranian people being killed?
05:11:31.820
Wasn't 50,000, 60,000 people dying, being killed, was that not enough?
05:11:45.260
Why are you afraid of the generation of the Sassanate?
05:11:58.580
So basically the children of the Saïsenaid dynasty.
05:12:49.020
condemning is not going to turn into medicine and care for us basically or it's not going to do
05:13:00.380
anything when it comes to our sickness and it's not going to turn into medicine
05:13:10.320
means that they are accusing people they're charging people with
05:13:48.260
And now she says, do you know what محاربه means?
05:13:56.520
محاربه means that if you complain that somebody, a thief has come to your land
0.86
05:14:01.880
and basically stealing your country, then you have to be executed.
0.99
05:14:06.080
Why do women take up to your country and they have captured your woman and they are raping your woman?
1.00
05:14:24.520
The punishment for that complaint is execution.
0.98
05:14:28.500
So because, guys, I have to give some context.
0.99
05:14:31.880
The way she's looking at this is that the Islamic Republic are invaders, and they're not Iranian, and they came here, and they're invading our land, they're stealing our land, and they're capturing the woman and raping the woman.
0.96
05:14:45.980
And if you complain against that, they will call it Muharribe, which means waging war against Allah, and the punishment for that is execution.
1.00
05:14:54.740
She's speaking with that framework in mind, which is the correct framework.
0.94
05:15:14.520
Guys, in the chat, is this accent from, where is this from? Is she from Kermanshah?
05:15:42.880
Kermanshah? Okay. Somebody is saying Mahshad. Okay.
05:15:46.880
Yeah, Kermanshah. Yes, Kermanshah. She's saying we are in trouble in this land.
05:15:52.880
she's saying if you leave us alone in this land these people will cut you up
05:16:06.320
she's saying we are we running people she's saying we are the shields of the world
05:16:14.060
oh my god goldie look at like this is a look at this message she's saying basically she's saying
05:16:22.880
that these monsters that we are dealing with here in iran the only thing between them and the rest
05:16:30.440
of the world is us iranian people that is very powerful she's saying that if you we're in trouble
05:16:38.520
right now but if if you don't come help us they will come for you later we are the shield between
05:16:45.860
them and you we she said we have turned ourselves into the shields of the world
05:16:52.940
that is so powerful she's saying we are we have turned we iranian people have turned ourselves
05:17:02.460
to the shields of the world so please come help us because if you don't come help us eventually
05:17:08.780
these people will come for you we have turned ourselves into the shields of the world
05:17:32.460
red cross oh oh red cross where are you so by the way guys when she's talking about red cross she's
05:17:41.080
not just talking about red cross she's talking about the hypocrisy of the the these all of
05:17:48.860
these types of institutions all of these groups so red cross is just like a representative of
05:17:55.640
everything all of these people who support gaza who go and make it you know make it seem like
05:18:02.460
what happened in gaza was like a genocide and a human like a major human rights violations
05:18:08.340
like she's saying where are you when they're killing us that's what she's talking she's
05:18:12.580
talking when she's talking when she's talking when she's talking about red cross she's talking
05:18:17.380
so you're like why aren't they why aren't these people into in our country like something like
05:18:42.640
Oh, journalists, why are the journalists not in my land?
05:18:55.480
Not only are they not there to do proper investigative journalism, when CNN and BBC come to Iran, what they do is that they repeat the Islamic Republic's propaganda.
05:19:08.200
I don't know if you guys remember, people who are new here, we showed this year on Iran Revolution Live that both BBC and CNN, they came to Iran and the message that they put out there was basically a repetition of the regime's propaganda.
05:19:25.480
Like, we have injured people as much as you want.
05:19:33.640
You know how, like, in a store, you say, we have as many of this as you want.
05:19:37.780
So she's saying, we have injured people as many as you like.
05:19:55.480
Why aren't she doing anything for the Iranian people?
05:20:05.420
So she's suggesting that you must hate us if you're treating us like this.
05:20:20.060
Now I think she's talking about to the people of Iran.
05:20:22.540
she's saying people these these these people like the people she's referring to
0.97
05:20:27.980
they want us to die they are liars they won't come to help us
0.98
05:20:43.340
I hope that this is the saying that I haven't heard.
05:21:13.340
oh my god she's saying i hope that your silence and the fact that you call these people terrorists
05:21:19.820
only after 47 years that one day it will come this fire will come and to you like
05:21:27.580
dominant to the bigger like i hope this turns a fire that will eventually
05:21:33.500
captures your skirt which is a persian saying i hope that what what you have inflicted upon us
05:21:39.340
this pain eventually comes for you as well i hope that this this misery
05:21:47.180
in that you have inflicted upon us you will also be infected by it by it at some point
05:22:09.340
right okay so that's just saying like god be with you but she's being sarcastic about
05:22:27.740
is she is in iran is she inside iran that's really great like that's yeah
05:22:31.660
i hope not that's a very good point she's saying that there are 47 years it took you 47 years for
05:22:41.920
you guys to call these people terrorists like you know how a lot of a lot of us celebrated
05:22:47.600
that european countries finally called the irgc terrorists she's saying it took you 47 years and
05:22:54.340
that's all you did so she's calling this she's saying i hope your silence whatever we whatever
05:23:00.740
we suffer because of your silence i hope it happens to you as well um there's another video
05:23:09.060
armin um that i'd like you to translate i put it in the private chat it's just the the final link
05:23:22.260
thank you goldie for sharing her voice i don't think this would get yeah it's it's our responsibility
05:23:57.420
So let's watch this. I don't know what this is, but let's watch.
05:24:42.740
So she's saying a very hot topic right now is the way people are mourning in the memorials for the fallen.
05:24:57.420
look at this is one of our fallen look at the cute dog oh it looks like my dog
05:25:07.860

no just bring her next time just bring her next time she could be the honorary co-host
05:25:30.200
so there is no books there's no islamic books look how people how how proud people are of the fact
05:25:47.820
that there's no islamic books or no islamic recitings or any um or anything islamic so
05:25:56.360
they're saying that she's there she's saying there's no crying and there's no recitation
05:26:01.420
of islamics by the way goldie this is this is my baby here this is nella goldie
05:26:40.060
oh guys you're saying instead of crying and reading islamic you know books or whatever
05:26:47.180
people dance and joyfully dance in the in in the memorials for the fallen this is something that
05:26:55.340
reminds us of majid reza rahnavad guys all of this all of this started with majid reza
05:27:26.620
His name is one of the most mentioned when it comes to the heroes of a revolution.
05:27:35.960
And all of these celebrations that you're saying where people, instead of crying,
05:27:40.440
instead of reading the Quran or reading anything Islamic during the memorials for the fallen,
05:27:47.440
instead they dance and are joyful like it's a wedding, all of it started with him.
05:29:16.380
So something you guys need to know regarding how we refer to Iranians, we don't call them just Iranians, we call them the children of Iran, right?
05:29:32.660
So this is a common thing that we do when we refer to Iranians.
05:29:36.460
We just, instead of calling them, you know, Iranians, we call them the children of Iran.
05:29:42.000
And she is saying, Majid Reza Ravad, the courageous child of Iran.
05:29:48.740
So whenever you hear child of Iran, it's just another way of saying Iranian.
05:29:53.200
So they're showing us a video from the city Najafabad.
05:30:23.200
that's so true she said this person who posted this video is saying that the day where the
05:30:35.600
islamic republic they played that video of majid reza rahavad the one that goldie just showed us
05:30:41.280
they showed by the way guys we didn't show that the islamic republic themselves showed that as a
05:30:48.720
way to humiliate Majid Rezar Anahvat, as a way to make fun of him. Look how it backfired. Just that
0.50
05:30:56.000
one short little clip that Goldie just played, all of Iran is now following it. This person is
0.85
05:31:04.480
saying there's not a single video anywhere of anybody doing anything but this. That was like
05:31:14.480
Just a few seconds, a few seconds of Majid Reza Nahnavar saying that.
05:31:19.540
And the Islamic Republic played that on state TV to humiliate him.
0.84
05:31:24.940
And with those few seconds, now we have an entirety of Iran following his way.
0.71
05:31:33.280
Everywhere, there's not a single place where for memorials, people are reading the Quran or doing anything Islamic.
0.97
05:31:41.180
Everywhere, people are following this tradition.
05:31:43.840
You see how powerful Majid Reza Rehnavar's wars were?
0.60
05:31:50.300
All of Iran changed its way, changed its tradition based on those few seconds that we just played.
05:32:02.740
And Ali is also pointing out, by the way, guys, that Majid Reza Rehnavar, he had a lion and sun tattoo on his arm.
05:32:10.820
and that's why the regime broke his arm in the video that goldie show you could see that he that
05:32:16.320
he there was a casket or something around his arm because they broke his arm simply because he had
05:32:21.460
simply because he had um the lion and son um tattoo oh let me show you something by the way
05:32:30.740
let me quickly guys because i might not be able to show you this because to see we'll be starting
05:32:35.940
but goldie i just wanted to nail bunny just shared this with us so just quickly want to show this
05:32:40.820
before we go to that is so good that is so good can you send that to me please yes oh my gosh
05:32:59.540
you guys know where that meme comes from right that that's the meme with everyone like the
0.92
05:33:05.140
throwing the mullahs murdering the mullahs with the the the film that the islamic regime made
05:33:09.940
honestly this is like the worst pr backfire against the regime ever that one clip oh my gosh
0.55
05:33:19.860
um let me just quickly so nail bunny sent me that and just wanted to give her credit but she also
05:33:27.380
sent me this let me just quickly look at this before we go back to the video because when
05:33:31.220
When Tuesday starts, I don't know if I could show you this.
05:33:33.520
So, tomorrow night in Times Square in New York,
05:33:36.700
Muslims will gather to pray the Ramadan prayer,
05:33:43.640
So, apparently, wag the night away, Times Square dog lovers gathering.
05:33:48.380
So, guys, dog lovers of New York, there's an event.
05:34:05.300
okay let's let's go like this because i want to zoom in so times times square new york city
05:34:12.820
guys be careful this is an this is an invasion from biden protect your streets friday february
05:34:19.560
20th from 5 p.m to 9 p.m whack the night away so apparently people new york city that's like
05:34:26.580
right now yeah oh guys oh so i didn't know so maybe it's late it's ramadog ramadog ramadog okay
05:34:38.100
did you just come up with that or no someone in the comment did you not see the comment it was um
05:34:42.580
oh yeah someone named wildcat mahon said ramadog guys this is actually a very smart way to fight
05:34:50.020
against islam because you're not doing you're not harming anybody you're not abusing you're basically
0.55
05:34:55.060
practicing your right to walk your dog like i think this needs to turn into a trend trend
05:35:03.480
calling every dog lover in uh the five what is this boros or bureaus uh let's fill time square
05:35:12.980
with wagging tails joyful barks and big hearts unconditional love loyal uh companions rescue
05:35:21.520
Yeah, guys, I don't know if this is going to work or not yet, but I think if we turn this into a trend, it might.
05:35:32.660
I think every American, Canadian, British person, French person, German person, Swedish person,
05:35:42.080
you have the right to walk your dog in the streets of your city wherever you want, whenever you want.
0.95
05:35:48.720
And if Muslims want to show domination by coming out and praying in streets and showing their presence and making intimidate you by their numbers, then you could do the same by just walking your dogs exactly when and where they're gathering.
0.78
05:36:08.220
And if they have a problem with that, that's their problem because you're not harming or abusing anybody.
0.91
05:36:12.820
You're just practicing your right to walk your dog.
05:36:29.940
I think it's completely not a single person was playing Koran in any, by the burial ground of their loved ones.
05:36:40.940
Yeah, so, Magid's will is being practiced everywhere organically all around the world.
05:36:51.320
So this is Majid Reza Rahnavard here, you can see the video of him in those few seconds
05:37:21.300
that he said this and his arm is broken as well so guys in this context in this video
05:37:35.380
this is right before his execution like just like a little bit before his execution they brought him
05:37:41.060
out and the soldier there the soldiers there the regime forces there they brought him because they
05:37:47.460
heard that he that was his will and they're like oh this is too good let's actually expose how evil
05:37:53.700
this man is by asking asking him what his what's inside his will in front of the camera they thought
0.97
05:38:00.260
people will hate him for saying this like you see how out of touch the islamic republic is with the
05:38:05.060
iranian people they thought that this would ruin him by by showing to people that he's anti-coran
05:38:12.020
that this would ruin him but it turned him into a national hero
05:38:20.420
they're saying this guy was like a prophet he was strong he was very you know his work his
05:38:26.260
words were solid he had he was determined that he would look at him he was so calm like it was
05:38:31.700
like he he was he was sentenced to be executed and this is a few just a little bit before his
05:38:37.860
executions but the the way he speaks so calmly he knows that he's about to die but he just
05:38:44.020
is he's reading the his will in front of the camera to the people who are about to execute
05:38:50.340
him with a broken hand just because he has the lion and son tattoo so people are just remembering him
05:39:05.460
by the way this is his picture before they cut his hair this is what he looked like but they cut
05:39:11.460
his hair there so somebody else posted this by saying so this is a this is a channel that
05:39:26.900
apparently just goes over other people's posts reviews people's posts so this is a post by
05:39:32.340
Somebody addressing Majid Reza Rahnavar by saying that ever since you, your will, there's nobody reading the Koran above the burial ground of our loved ones.
05:39:54.640
so they call him shah khurasan because he's from khurasan they call him the king of khurasan
05:40:04.520
and people are saying they they wish that he was around so he could see what he has done
05:40:10.780
like guys can you imagine could you imagine majid reza he died not knowing his impact
05:40:16.980
he died not knowing that those few seconds changed iran forever he died thinking that he
05:40:24.860
that was it that was the that that was the end of his life i mean look at look at he
05:40:31.080
i i these people are wishing that he could just know in those last few seconds what a major impact
05:40:39.760
he had made by the way do you guys know why he was executed because the reason why he was
0.69
05:40:48.240
executed is because the basiji people came to his neighborhood and they started attacking people
05:40:55.680
and he he defended his neighborhood and he took one of them out i think i don't know one of them
0.82
05:41:04.880
or how many of them and that's why they're executing but he was defending his neighborhood
05:41:09.840
against the islamic republic's attack and kashki budi omidi his tattoo was so they they burned the
05:41:17.820
tattoo and then they broke his arm we spoke about this yesterday i think those of you who are with
05:41:22.160
me yesterday we went over uh majid and what happened yeah um but we could never speak
05:41:29.620
enough about majid like he's um he's just like armin says he's a hero of iran um by the way
05:41:37.360
armin um to see he's going live in four minutes just want to give you a heads up he hasn't been
05:41:42.960
live all day this is the first time he's going live so okay so um right before going live i'm
05:41:49.360
gonna say you know i'm very high and everything to you guys okay so let's just let's just see
05:42:24.960
for our love for actually armin armin some people are saying that this is an ancient tradition
05:42:30.480
they're saying that this is actually how iranians honored um the the fallen before islam with
05:42:36.520
singing and dancing i haven't heard that i've i've seen some people say that and then there's
05:42:42.140
been like some historical documents about this as well so i mean i'll see if i can find it and
05:42:47.880
share it but um yeah see iranians are saying do they provide any evidence because i heard like
05:42:54.680
they might be right i'm not saying you're wrong because i heard the i heard so many people
05:42:58.200
celebrating the fact that we made this turn created something new because of magic like this
05:43:04.680
is my invention so some people think this is new but apparently um he even he even he might have
05:43:13.800
thought that this is new but i think this just goes to show that we're just going back to our
05:43:18.920
ancient roots and um even if like even like things that we've forgotten we are we are remembering
05:43:26.520
um i'll find i'll see if i can find the post but um apparently like is it a post or is it evidence
05:43:33.640
well okay so let me let me just explain so there's like this british guy there's a british guy who
05:43:38.200
was traveling through iran in like the 1800s in the early 1800s and he wrote like a memoir
05:43:44.520
of his experience with like the persian nomadic tribes like 200 300 years ago and within his
05:43:50.840
memoir he wrote that um the persian like nomadic tribes like the iranian tribes um
05:43:58.520
they would honor their dead by singing and dancing so i i'll go back and find it but apparently
05:44:05.160
there's some sort of historical account of this from like the early 1800s maybe maybe but we
05:44:11.880
should uh like if that could be true but we should also see if there's any iranian sources
05:44:16.600
because usually there's so many records of foreigners coming into iran and misunderstanding
05:44:22.120
something that is happening and giving a false report but it could be true but we have to like
05:44:41.880
so this post by the way so i don't know what's happening if it's new or not so
05:44:45.800
goldie is going to investigate and let us know but this post is saying celebrate this post is
05:44:51.160
talking about how this is a new thing in our tradition that we didn't have this before
05:44:56.280
So he's saying the fact that the Iranian people in a new tradition are in a new tradition
05:45:11.620
for the fallen, they dance and they clap, and with singing and with a dance that is
05:45:22.360
So with a deliberate dance and singing, they're turning their sorrow into rage.
05:45:35.640
So she's saying this is a deliberate method of turning your sorrow into rage by dancing and singing.
0.99
05:45:47.120
And by doing this, they're getting on the nerves of the mullahs.
0.86
05:45:52.360
so that so that means we will continue by the way even go the even if this is new even if this is
05:46:02.260
new it is still old in the sense that Iran creates has a history of creating the proper traditions
05:46:12.220
when it's needed so because Iran through its history added the right tradition whenever that
05:46:19.900
was needed does that make sense yeah yeah it does um to see to see just started so well we might
05:46:29.060
have to like um save this for next time like like tomorrow maybe um because i do appreciate your
05:46:36.380
translation but armin thank you so much for for being here um all right everyone we're going to
05:46:41.440
tune into to see um so everyone go to to see's channel and support him for a little bit and then
05:46:47.000
i'll be back to continue for a little bit afterwards as well all right armin
05:46:51.420
love you guys thank you so much armin great to have you back yeah thank you great to be back
05:47:02.680
welcome to 2c tv this is your global news channel amaya to see and as of tonight friday the 20th
05:47:20.200
of february according to the pentagon we are expecting an imminent conflict between the united
05:47:26.980
state of america and the islamic leadership of iran and there's a lot to cover as you can see
05:47:33.700
i am not in our usual home studio i'm somewhere else until tomorrow i have also evacuated let's
05:47:40.280
just say not really uh but uh there is a lot uh that is happening behind the scenes when it comes
05:47:45.840
to the military mobilization but also on a more diplomatic level the european countries have now
05:47:50.720
obviously urged their citizens to leave iran immediately and there are a couple of major
05:47:55.860
countries that are now the latest ones to send out the order and we're going to get your reaction
05:48:01.700
live because again I don't expect it to be tonight necessarily but anything could happen it's
05:48:09.740
currently about 11 15 p.m uk time it's about was it two and a half three hours three and a half
05:48:18.100
hours away behind Iran this was around the same time between now and 1 a.m that usually
05:48:24.560
uh airstrikes begin but doesn't necessarily mean that it will be exactly tonight or exactly this
05:48:29.360
time it could still be tomorrow or whenever but they're saying as of now if the the war should be
05:48:34.800
considered imminent but first things first let's talk about what's going on around the middle east
05:48:41.280
uh so uss gerald r ford is now finally in the mediterranean sea now their job so they'll be on
05:48:48.800
on the left-hand side their job is to primarily defend israel so they will be taking a more of a
05:48:55.380
defensive approach and but they can still technically if they want to do something they
05:49:00.100
can reach iran you also obviously have the two combat ships uh in the persian gulf we got the
05:49:06.100
uss abraham lincoln just outside the gulf of amman you got a couple of other destroyers on the other
05:49:10.700
side just behind saudi arabia uh one third of the u.s navy basically almost is currently around
05:49:17.420
and active. We're going to talk about the potential strategy by President Trump and the Pentagon
05:49:23.020
because the point of these so-called fake nuclear negotiations was to do a couple of things. One,
05:49:31.640
buy some time to mobilize the troops. Two, to create legitimacy for the war against the Islamic
1.00
05:49:37.300
Republic so that the whole of the international community, everybody would realize, well,
0.96
05:49:42.340
yes, the Islamic Republic is an imminent threat. We tried to talk to them. It's not working out.
0.91
05:49:49.020
Now, obviously, President Trump's four demands, they were never going to be accepted by the IRGC
05:49:54.480
anyway, but they knew that. But now the Islamic Republic have rejected the deal, but they've said
05:50:01.440
they're going to write a new proposal in the next couple of days, right? It's a new draft. So
05:50:05.900
President Trump has a new strategy. He said, okay, so we might have to do a limited strike
05:50:10.820
to put more pressure on them so what he wants to do he said well he really wanted them to for
05:50:16.780
example do a preemptive attack on the u.s basis or israel if that's not happening if we do a
05:50:22.280
limited airstrike we're not going to call it a war it's war but we're not going to call it war
05:50:26.580
obviously that's going to provoke the islamic regime in tehran to say we're going to hit israel
05:50:32.100
and the u.s and at that point president president trump could say see we just want to do a couple
05:50:37.720
of limited airstrikes they are attacking us now it's self-defense so based on that so you've got
05:50:44.500
some of the u.s troops and will be pulled from the middle east the persian gulf arab countries bases
05:50:50.940
and some of them will stay to defend the installations obviously in their own um territories
05:50:57.520
but then you also have this is basically the naval assets that you currently have the the ford
05:51:34.180
terrorism operation which was actually factual when they went to gaza it's a counter-terrorism
05:51:39.460
operation not necessarily war i mean everything is war but uh there are different categories
05:51:44.580
apparently uh but in iran the islamic republic are also on standby let's go to qasr shirin in
05:51:54.420
iran this is the most fascinating thing i've seen now we've seen a lot of crazy things from
05:52:01.220
the islamic regime but this is on a whole new level this is right by the border with iraq
0.96
05:52:08.260
in karimantra the islamic republic are preparing the soviet union era
05:52:16.820
rocket launchers these are the bm21mrl and if you don't know these launchers are from the 1960s
05:52:40.420
yeah we're supposed to be absolutely terrified of uh what uh the irgc uh currently hold that
05:52:59.300
one of the problems that they did lose a lot of the uh slightly better rocket launchers that
05:53:04.420
during the 12 day war they've been rebuilding a lot of the missiles but in terms of the launchers
05:53:10.020
uh they they've been struggling so they had to bring out the 1960s their style of the launches
05:53:14.980
there from a soviet union in terms of what the europeans have been doing of the last few hours
05:53:21.220
we now also have this from deutschland germany's embassy in tehran sent out an urgent statement
05:53:30.980
calling for on the citizens to leave iran immediately the statement is as follows
05:53:36.560
The situation in Iran and in the region remains tense.
05:53:41.140
A further deterioration of the security situation as well as a military confrontation cannot be ruled out.
05:53:49.120
We therefore once again urgently remind German nationals of the existing call to leave the country immediately.
05:53:57.520
Please note that in the event of an escalation, the German embassy in Tehran and the federal foreign office would likely be able to provide only very limited assistance with departure.
05:54:13.560
Please make use of the currently available options to leave the country.
05:54:17.980
Now, if you're a normal person, I'm not really sure why you would be in Iran, unless you're obviously a part of the intelligence agencies, and whether you're an asset, you're an agent.
0.64
05:54:30.760
I'm not really sure why you would be there.
0.92
05:54:33.580
If you're a normal citizen, you should have known at least since June 2025, just don't go to Iran.
1.00
05:54:40.480
Things are going to come back. Things are going to get worse.
1.00
05:54:42.700
Just stay away from Iran. There is absolutely no need for you to go there.
1.00
05:54:47.980
France and others, Indonesia and many others, have also joined the call to evacuate the European citizens and others, obviously Asians as well.
0.67
05:54:58.660
Surprisingly, this time around, the French were not the first ones to surrender their citizens.
05:55:05.660
They're the last ones, actually, as part of the major European countries to call for the evacuation.
05:55:13.680
in terms of president trump earlier on he indicated quite directly that his plan might be to
05:55:21.500
do a limited airstrike to and as i explained my own analysis shows that well this is basically to
05:55:28.180
say i didn't i didn't do an actual war but look the islamic republic are hitting back so now
05:55:33.220
they're asking for actual war so we're going to go in and apparently there was they didn't realize
05:55:39.200
there was a camera on him but i highly doubt that president trump knows he's a tv guy he wanted
05:55:44.820
himself to get caught and this is what we call in politics self-leaking but he was also at the
05:55:51.000
press conference earlier on asked about the the iranians and of course it was asked about the
05:55:56.980
islamic regime but he did have to clarify he said the iranian people are very different to
05:56:09.200
Mr. President, what's your message to the Iranian people after two rounds of talks with them?
05:56:19.600
The Iranian people in Iran or people here?
1.00
05:56:29.740
You know, the people of Iran are a lot different than the leaders of Iran.
05:56:37.120
but 32 000 people were killed over a relatively short period of time they were going to have
05:56:44.040
yeah that's one of the main points that he did uh it repeats i'm going to go to this section again
05:56:52.740
about uh what he says 32 000 the official numbers were still lower uh they said about 25 000 or
05:57:00.240
whatever it was that nobody trusts the official numbers from the islamic regime we we wouldn't
05:57:05.900
know the real number until after this war and after the collapse of the regime there the numbers
05:57:11.900
are much much higher and let's quickly go to this bit again they're about the numbers
05:57:18.380
very uh very sad situation but 32 000 people were killed over a relatively short period of time
05:57:27.020
they were going to hang yeah but he did also obviously repeat the uh the same thing that is
05:57:32.300
he really doesn't want to say much until the action has been taken so he just repeats the
05:57:37.860
same things oh yeah they were going to hang people and i stopped them but then what they decided to
05:57:41.780
do was instead of doing public hangings they started to do private kind of secret executions
05:57:46.600
and uh but president trump still has a number of cards that is still holding close to his chest
05:57:52.420
and he is clearly going to be using that when the time is right when he has to basically
05:57:58.520
finalize the legitimacy of the war as i said they have to basically make it legitimate
05:58:02.780
compared to what happened in 2003 in iraq where the the leadership both uh george w bush and tony
05:58:09.800
blair initially came and said okay we want regime change and then people said wait what you have to
05:58:15.680
explain yourself what do you mean and then they say oh because of this and this and that and then
05:58:20.380
they had to come up with reasons and they had to go and sell it to the world and it didn't go out
05:58:23.820
they work out quite well this time around it's the exact opposite approach to for example saying
05:58:29.340
this is my intent i'm going to show you my card and now oh i now have to explain myself to the
05:58:33.980
world and tony blair it was his job to go sell the idea to the world that's where he got most
05:58:38.540
of the blame rather than even george w bush but this is a slightly different approach to that
05:58:45.260
there's also been a lot of uh fake news and exaggeration that's been going on over the last
05:58:51.020
few hours. Firstly, we had New York Times reporting initially that the Pentagon have already evacuated
05:58:58.940
hundreds of American soldiers from the Al-Qaeda base in Qatar, and also the bases in Bahrain.
05:59:07.100
That included, apparently, the Fifth Fleet base as part of defensive measures. But we did double
05:59:14.560
check that is not true um not everybody has been evacuated some will stay and the non-essential
05:59:22.600
personnel are still being evacuated so the new york times uh had to uh redact that after getting
05:59:30.760
exposed so i don't know why they would even try to do things without doing their homework but it
05:59:35.800
happens you know when when you're doing a last minute uh breaking news a lot of uh you would
05:59:40.840
think that when it comes to newspapers at least because i have to double check it's not the same
05:59:44.320
as broadcasters when you're broadcasting live and things happen then you have to clarify later i'm
05:59:48.900
not really sure why they're spreading fake news as usual in terms of the reaction from the islamic
0.54
05:59:53.900
regime in tehran we are once again gonna have some comedy who's excited for some humor because
0.78
06:00:00.440
i'm not even trying at this point they are just making it so so easy all right so this man whose
06:00:07.280
mom and dad were cousins, allegedly, Amir Hayat Mugadam. He's a member of the Islamic Republic's
06:00:15.680
National Security Committee in Parliament. That is the longest title in history of titles.
06:00:23.360
We got a couple of spammers, by the way. If you copy and paste in the live chat, you will get
06:00:28.080
banned and deported to pakistan he said that we will sink uss abraham lincoln and
06:00:42.880
they are very confident he said that the iran's strategy the irgc is not to initiate a war but it
06:00:50.480
is at 100 percent readiness for confrontation if war breaks out. If the United States attacks,
06:00:58.240
the Islamic Republic's response will be immediate, harsh, decisive, and stronger than ever before.
0.88
06:01:04.800
They said that last time as well. I don't know when it's going to be the actual strongest but
0.96
06:01:09.280
apparently next time will be the strongest. The Islamic Republic would strike all US bases in
1.00
06:01:14.880
the region whether they are in Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Bahrain or any other
0.99
06:01:19.680
country. The United States has no real defensive capability against Iran's
0.96
06:01:25.680
ballistic missiles. American and Israeli defense systems have been proven
06:01:30.660
ineffective. He's really really trying to say that the Americans can't defend
06:01:38.760
themselves. Of all countries throughout all history the American military are
06:01:44.520
not good at defense apparently right interesting but putting aside this
1.00
06:01:53.940
retard the reality is that if they're gonna go around and keep repeating that
1.00
06:02:00.660
we're not gonna start a war this is exactly why you are getting the new
0.99
06:02:05.340
approach by President Trump to do a limited strike and limited is still
06:02:10.280
going to be hitting government buildings and their irgc bases the irgc will be forced to retaliate
06:02:16.600
and once they retaliate president trump is going to get the media to say well i didn't do a war i
06:02:22.280
just wanted to teach him a lesson they are overreacting so i'm afraid we're going to have
06:02:27.160
to start a war so the second round that's when president trump is going to call it the war
06:02:31.560
not the first time he's not going to call it the war it's just going to be a special military
06:02:36.040
operation it's because they're not doing what president trump wanted them to do preemptive
06:02:41.400
attack walk away from the deal preemptive attack so they're still they're still trying their best
06:02:48.840
to hold their nerves they're going around obviously they're threatening president trump
06:02:53.080
they're going to assassinate him apparently good luck with that and they want to sink all the
06:02:57.800
aircraft carriers okay fair you can try but they still haven't fallen directly into the trap of
06:03:05.160
the americans which is they really want to poke them to get tehran to either do a preemptive
06:03:11.240
attack or to directly walk away from the talks so what they've done is they've rejected the deal
06:03:17.240
but they said we are going to send you another proposal in the next couple of days now president
06:03:21.960
trump has given them about eight days left basically to the end of february about 10 days
06:03:28.840
left right because a few days ago he said 10 to 15 days it's the end of february that's the
06:03:34.520
the official deadline so you might not have the all-out war now you might have the limited airstrikes
06:03:41.500
just hit them which is still war to get them to get angry but i think they they've done their
06:03:48.120
homework this time compared to june 2025 they know that this time they have to be seen as the
06:03:52.580
underdogs this time they have to be seen as the victims and they are very good at playing the
06:03:56.820
victim card they've been doing that since the seventh century they are professional in terms
06:04:01.980
of the reports from iran as well um as expected the iranian people are preparing because they're
06:04:10.960
also used to this sort of thing now but they were very much used to it during the the eight years of
06:04:17.460
war with iraq uh shopping centers and petrol stations are packed people obviously are buying
06:04:26.000
everything that they need the essentials from shops anything that's basically left there's not
06:04:30.420
much left and people are sticking tapes on their windows to prevent them from shattering too much
06:04:37.300
the same thing that they used to do during the 1980s war with Saddam Hussein but again it's still
06:04:44.360
not going to be completely bulletproof in that sense but it does help a little bit as long as
06:04:51.220
they're not right next to IRGC bases of government buildings it should be okay but the regime
06:04:58.220
personnel have also occupied schools and universities and hospitals basically places
06:05:05.900
where you would have civilians so everybody should just stay away from any sort of building
06:05:11.220
or area or institution that has any connection to the IRGC and so it's going to be quite tough
06:05:18.240
but people would know when it's about to happen meanwhile protests in Iran continue the uprising
06:05:26.780
has not stopped despite the massacre of the last few weeks. We have a huge crowd again
06:05:33.940
out today across the country chanting Long Live the King.
06:05:38.780
we also have people chanting or singing um oh beloved king of iran return to iran
1.00
06:06:01.500
They are not scared, they've seen their neighbours, their friends, their family members getting massacred.
0.73
06:06:31.500
would think at this point based on the history of the Iranians because the Iranians are not necessarily
1.00
06:06:35.660
revolutionary people they should be hiding at home they should be terrified right you would
1.00
06:06:40.780
think that not this time around they're still out they don't care because they've got nothing else
06:06:46.540
but hope for freedom and democracy so there is also a a sad video that i have to show you guys
06:06:53.340
this is a teacher in Iran the father of one of the guys who was murdered by the IRGC a few weeks ago
06:07:04.380
his name was Sadra Sultani now Sultani's father who's a teacher walked into his classroom
06:07:13.420
the students of the school decided to I don't know if the word is correct but surprise him
06:07:22.220
with a memorial for his son every student rose as the teacher walked in in silence
06:07:31.820
they had his pictures on the screen there his son with music in the background and of course
06:08:47.220
Even though deep inside his life, his heart shattered.
06:08:53.220
But it was a lovely thing that the students decided to do.
06:08:57.220
Showing a bit of support reminds people, including this father,
06:09:07.220
now some reaction in the live chats someone says that won't we need boots on the ground for regime
06:09:18.640
change not necessarily and definitely not necessarily like the way it happened in iraq
06:09:23.760
you might need some special forces to go in to do a certain special operations in terms of targeting
06:09:30.500
individual leaders but you won't necessarily need for example american soldiers to just walk around
06:09:35.740
the streets definitely for like weeks or months that is a terrible idea and that's how you put
06:09:40.380
american soldiers lives are at risk yeah not necessarily in iran but it happened in iraq and
1.00
06:09:45.660
afghanistan for very different reasons because they were tribal and when you have american bases
06:09:51.520
during a completely messed up situation after the fall of saddam or the taliban in afghanistan as
06:09:57.860
well then yes they're going to get targeted so although a lot of the the american soldiers who
06:10:02.760
lost their lives they happened because of that uh but you don't need that necessarily
06:10:06.960
fix that hair to see uh no says keith uh damn to see tv other sources of geopolitical news on iran
0.93
06:10:15.100
are making me gag oh what that's your fault thanks for what you do bro uh keep on keeping on i'll
0.93
06:10:22.180
adapt and like it what what are they doing there is no context to this comment why are they making
06:10:29.160
you gag what are they saying uh massive super chat from jay thank you very much saying to see

06:11:08.760
uh anyway let's uh continue thank you for delivering us the news that we need to see
06:11:15.640
the the real news to see tv uh that's not uh that's not what forget the iranian people who deserve
06:11:25.240
freedom love and kindness they are very important to this world i appreciate that
06:11:32.120
are they launching uh coke cans and mentos the irgc they're not allowed because uh coke is banned
06:11:39.320
in iran not that coke that coke is fine you can find a lot of it uh but yeah they got their own
06:11:45.160
coke they actually stole allegedly they stole uh part of the formula from coca-cola but they can't
0.83
06:11:51.320
get sued because there's already sanctions on the islamic republic anyway so they created their own
06:11:57.000
version of coca-cola maya standing behind the curtains backstage at britain's got talent before
06:12:03.960
performing this is the final battle on stage really i don't think it will look like this
06:12:10.920
britain's got talent but it's more like the middle east is about to go boom boom talent now
06:12:18.280
Now, sent the university a great video to a contact in DC that forwarded it.
06:12:39.140
Jeremy Corbyn was protesting against Trump invading Iran,
06:12:42.280
even though Trump didn't want to invade back then.
0.78
06:12:48.280
Yeah, to be fair, Jeremy Corbyn has been consistent in being on the wrong side of history.
06:13:09.720
LaBelle says, careful, remember, they have a whole phantom chair.
06:13:14.940
that was literally the uh the the f4 phantom that uh crashed by the way this is the the level of
06:13:21.120
the quality you're getting from the armed forces of the irgc the war hasn't even started yet and
06:13:27.920
they're just dying during training with the war has already had one casualty and it hasn't even
06:13:34.860
started yet but that was one of the last few remaining um phantoms that they had i'm not
06:13:40.440
sure why they're even bothering with that because they had so much time over the last few decades
06:13:45.720
to get extra help from china uh to be able to build a better better slightly better
06:13:53.000
high-tech military force but no just didn't bother they focus primarily on ballistic missiles
06:13:59.960
does ali the mouse not realize trump is the hide-and-seek champion of the world right now
06:14:05.560
Yeah, why are they trying to assassinate the president?
06:14:09.900
Argy says, who do you think is most influential on Trump?
06:14:13.940
Whitcoff is trying hard to make a deal on a small amount of enrichment instead of none
06:14:18.820
and remove Israel's ballistic requests so the deal can go through.
06:14:25.680
and everything that they are told to do, President Trump tells them to do it.
06:14:30.220
And of course, he would send people like Whitcoff and Kushner to do or say one thing,
06:14:34.740
and on the other hand he would send Marco Rubio to see the exact opposite thing
06:14:38.580
and he himself, he just says the way, well whatever he says
06:14:42.140
and that's just part of his tactic, he delegates but he knows what he's doing
06:14:45.900
the one thing you could say about President Trump, whether you like him or dislike him
06:14:50.000
whether you agree with his policies or don't agree with his policies
06:14:52.620
domestically or foreign policy, is that nobody can tell him what to do
06:15:00.140
and we've seen the same track record even since the day when he was in the world of business
06:15:06.620
and even in media so everything that happens he knows exactly what is happening but the narrative
06:15:15.540
that's been created by the White House indirectly is oh yes there are differences and you know oh
06:15:21.260
this person might be doing something different than what the president wants for example Steve
06:15:25.940
but at the end of the day they can't be the decision makers because that's not their job
06:15:33.000
what do you think the uranium pilots have refused orders or helped the US and Israel
06:15:39.520
historically the pilots hate the mullahs and vice versa so I mean there will be the actual
06:15:44.100
armed forces and that's when you're going to see the difference the actual armed forces of Iran
06:15:48.320
different to the IRJC and those who allegedly apparently tens of thousands of them have now
06:15:53.340
privately defected that's when you would see the difference if they have defected if they are
06:15:59.260
basically not with the regime then when they are needed they're not going to be around so and i
06:16:06.000
think the americans are banking on that um i'm guessing obviously but we still don't know i mean
06:16:10.060
we keep hearing that they have defected but uh we don't know when we're going to see the result
06:16:14.060
obviously towards the end it's not going to be now but uh when the time is ready
06:16:18.020
think Trump let's be we strike preemptively well that was supposed to be the thinking until
06:16:25.260
literally a few days ago a couple of days ago but again they are in charge of the narrative
06:16:29.620
they want us to think something right but doesn't necessarily mean it will happen so right now
06:16:34.120
the Pentagon have said war is imminent now imminent could mean right now half an hour from now
06:16:40.280
it could be later tonight it could be tomorrow it could be after Sunday right but they want us to
06:16:45.860
think it's imminent that is the position that's the political decision and position saying that
06:16:51.320
yeah it's imminent we've now made a decision same thing with the Israelis until a couple of days
06:16:57.420
ago I would have said what the narrative is what they are telling us to think is yeah Israel might
06:17:04.500
go first because Israel's red line is the ballistic missiles and during the negotiations
06:17:09.280
the Islamic Republic are not even talking about the missiles they're just talking about nuclear
06:17:12.940
so Trump might use that as a good excuse to get the Israelis to hit first
06:17:17.540
and then the Islamic Republic will retaliate and then the Americans could tell the world
06:17:21.720
look they're being crazy we're gonna have to go in
06:17:24.100
but now the White House have changed the narrative slightly
06:17:28.240
as of the last few hours they now want us to think
06:17:32.060
they are telling us or President Trump himself might do a limited airstrike
06:17:40.320
and then see the reaction from the Islamic Republic
06:17:42.840
what do you think is going to be the reaction are they going to sit down and say oh i'm sorry
0.73
06:17:46.680
don't hit us please no they're going to hit israel they're going to hit the u.s bases
0.82
06:17:50.120
and then the outcome is the same which is oh we just hit iran a little bit and they've gone crazy
0.81
06:17:58.600
so we're gonna have to go all in and whether if israel hits first or president trump does
06:18:03.400
a limited airstrike the outcome is going to be the same regardless now would personal
06:18:11.480
improvement be better for uplifting the masses than political change?
06:18:28.040
First, it's a very vague question. If it's about Iran, imagine, guys, guys, you want regime change?
06:18:33.800
You want freedom? No, no, no. Just do personal improvements. Just go to the gym,
06:18:37.240
than wanting political change i'm not really sure what this prefers if it's about iran that makes
06:18:41.580
no sense if it's about well to be fair with anything doesn't make any change sense you need
06:18:46.560
political change when something is wrong a regime run by a window lickers true that has caused so
0.76
06:18:54.780
much suffering it's hard to keep your composure but i look forward to seeing a free iran in the
0.91
06:19:00.500
future i try my best guys asking for a friend when iran is free can i propose to goldie
06:19:10.660
what is the obsession that you guys have to come on this channel to propose to goldie
06:19:14.980
go on gold this channel and propose and get rejected
06:19:19.300
i'm not a pimp please don't let them leave a retribution i again i'm not in charge of the
06:19:25.300
revolution but you know if i were it would have been done differently and more robustly uh glad
06:19:31.620
to see that you are safe my i have a son your age and i'm a bit of a worry what oh well where
06:19:39.780
was your son where is your son deborah um but i guess that's natural when you have a kid you
06:19:47.860
always worried i guess regardless of where they are is your merch made in china says paul and
06:19:52.260
no so we depending on where you order from so we got obviously a collection of warehouses and
06:19:57.140
third-party suppliers so if you order from north america it's a couple of places in the us it's
06:20:02.420
made in america obviously if you order from europe we got a couple european side and if
06:20:07.860
you're close to the other side you've got taiwan it basically the number of places depending on
06:20:13.300
what is it the easiest to deliver it still takes a few days by the way we're trying our best to
06:20:17.940
to have a more like an amazon delivery style for our 2C merch but apparently it's not as easy as
06:20:22.880
i thought but if you want to also get your own iran merch you can go directly on 2C store.tv
06:20:29.320
and check out our iran collection we've got the final battle the lion rises the sun and lion
06:20:34.540
and everything else that we have check it out all right and now
0.91
06:20:38.720
IRGC will have a hard time fighting the US recruiting the people of Iran as Hamas did
06:20:47.000
in gaza is not an option but that's the thing and not just the people of iran they're also
06:20:53.300
struggling with the official members of the armed forces because if you remember during the 12 day
06:20:58.480
war they all disappeared and i when we were reporting i was like where is the ministry
06:21:03.620
all we had was a bunch of people who were near the uh the missile launchers and in the control
06:21:11.380
centers and there were only a few people every time because the videos were then released by
06:21:15.640
islamic republic over the last few months showing oh in each control center we had about five people
0.53
06:21:20.760
and especially those who got killed and uh there was no military and they didn't even decide to
06:21:28.280
equally fight back against the israelis the israelis had their military around they had their
06:21:32.520
the israeli air force fighter just controlling the skies over iran and we weren't really sure
06:21:37.320
where the rest of the armed forces were in uh in the country so this comment is absolutely spot on
06:21:46.400
Americans need to hear a plan for post-conflict security in Iran.
06:21:50.320
How? It's up to the Iranians and they already have a plan.
0.86
06:21:52.740
They have an opposition, they have an opposition leader,
1.00
06:21:59.220
just like the Eastern European blocs after the fall of the Soviet Union.
06:22:03.580
Not all of them did well, but some of them did well.
06:22:06.180
You will be vulnerable from international enemies
06:22:14.520
but you were going to have to have a nuremberg and nuremberg style and trials and so it's the
06:22:20.520
job of again the armed forces and the opposition to go round them up arrest every single person
06:22:26.680
those who haven't managed to flee and then have trials fair trials simple it's happened
06:22:34.440
in poland this happened in germany it's happened in korea it's happened in many countries liberia
06:22:48.260
and obviously Iran doesn't have a tribal problem
06:22:52.780
you're not going to have anybody taking over Iran
06:23:08.060
because they already had their country you don't have to start from scratch you don't it's not like
06:23:12.960
iraq when people said okay saddam is gone have democracy and people in iraq were like democ what
06:23:17.660
we don't know what that means and they start killing each other two minutes later
06:23:21.320
iran they already had freedom they already had democracy they were the first country in the
06:23:25.480
middle east to have constitutional monarchy and parliamentary democracy so they just go back to
06:23:29.640
what they already had this is my tc reporting live from tehran says soon soon i'll say that
06:23:37.000
currently i'm in a bunker uh what do they call an iranian coke ayacola
06:23:43.140
that would have been a genius branding by the way ayacola good you don't understand uh
06:23:50.260
the drills and the testings for the jets is to see how they crash yes that's why yeah it was on
06:23:58.620
purpose guys up here in north dakota the center of north america and the middle of nowhere i'm
06:24:06.400
glad to find these outlets to give day-to-day coverage. Thank you so much, Pat. And Loki,
06:24:14.040
I hope the F-14s are spared. Only ones are still flight-worthy and are iconic. Oh, the good old
06:24:21.460
days of the F-14s. Bad hair day? How dare you? I'm trying a new style. My wife likes it. Leave me
06:24:29.520
alone. Funny watching people trying to guess the Trump's next move. I know, stop trying.
06:24:36.080
It's not going to work. He does not show his card until the game is over.
06:24:40.980
Classic Trump move. As I said, even Melania can't tell.
06:24:48.520
A super sticker from PD Dunn. Say hi to Rafael.
06:24:56.620
And Ruhullah Khomeini took at least 10 years to realize his failure to lead the country.
0.62
06:25:01.800
Sadly, Ali Khamenei still has not. I think Khamenei genuinely believes he's succeeded.
06:25:06.080
I can imagine towards the end Khomeini kind of knew, deep down, he knew it didn't turn out the way he wanted it to be turned out, the whole regime.
06:25:16.820
Not that he wanted the regime to be better in some sort of democratic way, but the whole thing changed, even from 1979.
06:25:25.540
So to be fair, Saddam launching a war on Iran didn't really help Khomeini's plans.
06:25:30.580
But what people fail to see is that the IRJC will be fighting on two fronts, externally with the US and internally with the patriotic Iranians, many fronts.
06:25:41.140
So they got the Israelis, they got the Americans, they got the Iranians, and they got the fourth group, the internal division, the splinter groups.
06:25:49.560
Inside the regime, they also have people to fight.
06:25:54.100
If they're standing next to each other in a line, they're just like, you might blow up any moment.
06:25:59.200
so anything could happen anyway according to the pentagon uh war as of now that tonight is imminent
06:26:06.440
i again i don't think it will be tonight but uh but they said it's beyond standby the europeans
06:26:11.620
are evacuating and more of the u.s personnel non-essential personnel are evacuating will be
06:26:17.160
evacuating from the middle east thank you so much for watching i'm maya tussi and we are the media
06:27:25.960
no we're gonna watch this i want to watch the news this is this is from this is like from fox
06:27:42.400
news live like an hour ago so let's watch this and i'll be back you're watching live now i'm
06:27:47.720
austin westfall pentagon correspondent jennifer griffin with the latest on the u.s as it considers
06:27:53.580
its options in Iran. They better negotiate a fair deal. President Trump is doubling down on his
06:28:01.560
warning against Iran, saying an agreement needs to be reached over its nuclear program. Following
06:28:07.480
comments, he is considering military strikes against the country. They cannot have a nuclear
06:28:12.120
weapon. The president has been very clear on that. According to a report from Reuters, two anonymous
06:28:16.660
officials say some of the planning by the U.S. military involves options to target individuals
06:28:22.320
in Iran and possibly even pursue a regime change in the country. Trump's warning comes even as
06:28:28.380
Iran's foreign minister says officials are planning to finish a drafted deal and send
06:28:33.560
it to Washington, though, he adds, there will never be a military solution for Iran's nuclear
06:28:38.980
program. The only solution is diplomacy. We are prepared for diplomacy and we are prepared for
06:28:44.140
negotiation as much as we are prepared for war. Tehran holding drills with Russia this week as
06:28:49.420
a U.S. aircraft carrier, the world's largest, passed through the Strait of Gibraltar and
06:28:54.540
entered the Mediterranean Sea on Friday, a move that most likely takes away from an element
06:29:00.100
of surprise by the U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio is expected to visit Prime Minister
06:29:06.200
Benjamin Netanyahu in Israel next week to discuss those U.S.-Iran talks. In Washington,
06:29:12.320
Jennifer Griffin, Fox News. Let's bring in retired marine intelligence officer,
1.00
06:29:17.460
national security analyst, and the host of the Strat Podcast, Hal Kemper, here with me.
06:29:23.940
We've been looking at this map throughout the week. You can see the assets that have built up
06:29:30.940
in the area, and this is not even including what Jennifer Griffin was just talking about there,
06:29:35.020
the Gerald R. Ford, which just crossed through the Strait of Gibraltar, on its way to the area
06:29:39.440
as well. This week, Hal, Iran and US officials have been holding indirect diplomatic negotiations.
06:29:47.460
But it doesn't feel like those talks have calmed the situation down.
06:29:52.460
Obviously, a large amount of manpower in the region.
06:29:56.460
Does it feel like to you that the U.S. is poised to do something militarily, regardless of how recent negotiations have played out?
06:30:06.460
Also, what it looks like is we're putting all the assets into place to do a major operation.
06:30:11.460
We've got, I mean, you see the ships that we have poised around there.
06:30:16.460
of course, but what you also don't see is a number of AWACS aircraft and other significant
06:30:26.040
aviation-controlled birds, if you will, planes that can really control a lot of dynamic aerial
06:30:34.340
combat. And then you don't see the F-18s, the F-15s, the F-22s, other F-35s in various different
06:30:42.060
airfields around the uh around the gulf that are within striking distance so there's a lot going on
06:30:47.980
there now we've seen a tremendous amount of tankers coming in which tells me we're looking
06:30:52.140
at sustaining a lot of uh planes uh for a very long period of time and it also provides an ability
06:30:58.540
to do things like if you want to bring in bombers like b2 bombers they would have to have tanker
06:31:02.980
support and there's just been a tremendous amount of cargo aircraft coming in with most of speculation
06:31:08.960
being that it's carrying a lot of stuff tied to air defense, really stuff that can thwart that
06:31:15.500
missile threat that we get from Iran, but also things that might be able to thwart, for example,
06:31:20.400
the drone threat and other things. So there's a lot going in there. But even with all that firepower,
06:31:27.080
if we hit Iran, they're going to be able to respond. And they have a lot of capabilities
0.99
06:31:31.840
to do that. And they can cause some great disruption, not just with us from a military
06:31:36.740
standpoint, but also from a commercial standpoint, by clogging up the Strait of Hormuz with a variety
06:31:42.980
of different assets and means. So the U.S. nabbed Maduro, and they did that with really a pinpoint
06:31:52.100
operation, you could call it. Can you compare the complexity of that mission to a hypothetical
06:31:58.620
mission that would involve getting to the Ayatollah? Yeah, that was a lot easier mission.
06:32:04.080
As complex as the one in Venezuela was, I don't want to take away from all the stuff that went there.
06:32:12.100
There were some capabilities that just completely overwhelmed the Venezuelans.
06:32:17.640
Geography has rules of its own, and the geography in Iran is vastly different than the geography in Venezuela.
06:32:27.560
It's not something we can easily access from the sea.
06:32:30.100
and even if we're to go in there and say capture Khomeini which would be much much more difficult
06:32:37.600
than it was to capture Maduro that would not necessarily change things there is a regime
06:32:44.220
a structure around them that would remain intact it's not clear that would certainly
06:32:49.260
cause cessation of military strikes from from Iran to all the neighbors in fact it might actually
06:32:55.900
pick up the op tempo on that so there's really uh uh there isn't a way to compare those two others
06:33:02.140
say we have tremendous capabilities now one thing i would point out is special operations and when
06:33:07.740
i looked at that big flow of cargo aircraft maybe we're not bringing large troop formations lots of
06:33:12.300
tanks things like that but i wouldn't i would be really surprised if there wasn't a lot of special
06:33:17.660
operators with some special equipment that will allow us to do some things and and keep in mind
06:33:23.260
We've seen that. We saw what the Israelis did. They had covert operatives actually operating in
0.99
06:33:28.500
Iran. And I would imagine that we are looking at that. We may actually even be coordinating with
06:33:33.800
Israel on that. We have been tracking, and by the way, a live look at the White House,
06:33:39.900
the time in the nation's capital approaching 5.15. It was Reuters that first reported last week that
06:33:45.900
the U.S. military is preparing for a sustained weeks-long operation against Iran that could
06:33:51.840
include striking Iranian security facilities as well as nuclear infrastructure. Hal, the U.S. did
06:33:59.040
strike Iran last year. That operation took hours. Why might we be talking about weeks this time
06:34:06.960
around? Well, to really create the conditions we want. If we really want to create regime change,
06:34:14.060
if we really want to neutralize the capabilities Iran has and really go after those nuclear
0.87
06:34:20.800
capabilities the enriched uranium and any capability they have to enrich uranium uh we're
0.89
06:34:26.720
gonna have to be there for a while we're gonna have to hit targets over and over again we're
06:34:30.880
gonna have multiple strikes and then we're going to want to do one thing which is take out their
06:34:35.200
uh ballistic missile capability and their their uh drone capability that's not something we're
06:34:40.560
going to easily make happen in a single you know short multi-hour thing that's going to take days
06:34:46.000
and weeks to put in place to really accomplish the end state that we seem to be aimed at it's
06:34:53.140
going to take consistent overwhelming firepower that's also something to degrade the you know
06:35:00.420
revolution or the irgc the revolutionary guard corps and other elements of the regime to the
06:35:06.080
point where potentially protesters could hit the streets and have enough uh you know capability
06:35:12.780
to actually start taking over buildings and doing those things necessary to actually affect regime
06:35:17.800
change. Some images from some of the protests that you could very easily argue began this current
06:35:24.720
round of negotiations. It was these protests and ultimately something President Trump alluded to
06:35:30.620
earlier today was it was the killing of tens of thousands of protesters, according to Trump,
06:35:36.420
that really got the ball rolling on these most recent round of discussions. Again, it was in
06:35:42.120
Geneva earlier this week that we heard that a U.S. envoy and Iranian officials were meeting
06:35:47.380
indirectly to discuss this. I want to talk about another state, Russia. Iran and Russia, Hal,
06:35:52.900
have been conducting joint military drills this week. Let's say that the U.S. does do something
06:35:58.280
militarily in Iran. How tight is Russia with Iran, and is there a threshold at which Russia
06:36:04.920
would be compelled to get involved? I don't see that. I'm not ruling it out,
06:36:10.960
But, of course, I saw the joint exercise they did.
06:36:19.160
You may recall when we took the, I think it was the Bella 2 tanker in the North Atlantic,
06:36:24.000
when the UK and us did a joint VBSS boarding operation to seize a tanker, that prior to
06:36:31.900
that, there were reports a Russian submarine and one or two Russian Navy ships had come
06:36:37.700
up along there as a deterrence to, you know, any potential U.S.-led boarding effort. And when it
06:36:44.020
was clear that we're going to do it, they disappeared. And Russia is really, just doesn't
06:36:49.440
have the capability to project power into Iran to do much of anything. So I think there's a lot of
06:36:55.420
symbolism there. I think they're trying to show support. But, you know, for Russia, Iran is a very
06:37:00.700
important partner. They're the ones that are providing, you know, Shahid drones, although
06:37:04.140
Russia does actually manufacture those in Russia itself but all the components all the pipeline for
06:37:11.040
for the things that are necessary to make that and a variety of other things those come from Iran so
06:37:16.260
if Iran was taken out or taken out as a as a strategic ally of Russia and then you saw they
06:37:25.100
lost Syria as an ally they start running out of Middle Eastern countries well they frankly ran
06:37:31.040
of Middle Eastern countries that they can look to as allies, and then they can't project any
06:37:35.680
power in the region or significant power in the region. So it'd be a real setback for Russia.
06:37:40.880
So let's kind of just talk about what might happen in Iran. Let's say that the U.S. were
06:37:49.200
compelled to trigger a regime change in Iran. What implications would that have on Iran,
06:37:57.760
and what implication would that have on Iran's neighbors and the wider Middle East?
06:38:04.000
Well, if there was regime change, and there are multiple scenarios of what that could look like.
06:38:10.780
I mean, it could be the theocracy, Khomeini, and those around him leave, but the IRGC is still in
06:38:18.000
place. Okay, so you got the Revolutionary Guard Corps. Maybe they take over. Is that going to be
06:38:23.120
a more radical regime or a less radical regime would that really change the trajectory of the
06:38:28.080
country don't know there's uh thoughts that maybe there's a the the more normative political side
06:38:34.940
uh with the regular military and the regular police force takes over that would be regime
06:38:40.220
change but again would that be a pro-us regime i don't know um and then the what we'd like to
06:38:47.360
see of course is a pro-democracy type regime change okay i just want to make something
06:38:53.000
very clear um if if there was like if if the ayatollahs went and the the police took over
06:39:03.960
that's not regime change because the police are part of the regime so you can't actually have
06:39:13.560
regime change unless like you get rid of them completely and king is a palavi comes in so i
0.95
06:39:21.720
just want to point that out because that's um I don't know man like this guy I don't know I don't
0.99
06:39:29.520
know what he's saying and then the other thing I don't like is the reporter was asking like oh well
06:39:34.040
if if the United States compels regime change no the United States isn't compelling anything
06:39:39.740
Iranians already are saying that they want to overthrow the regime Iranians are already saying
06:39:46.320
that they want regime change so the U.S. isn't compelling anything right he's making it sound
06:39:51.540
as if it's the u.s that's initiating regime change no the united states is just leveling the playing
06:39:57.240
field so i don't know this is weird that's uh obviously optimal uh in that but in in all those
06:40:05.720
in the case of the last one if we get a pro-western pro-us uh regime not necessarily a democracy but
06:40:14.320
on the road to democracy does this guy think that we're a bunch of like illiterate uneducated
06:40:22.540
i don't know savages or something he's like oh we get a pro-western something not necessarily
06:40:29.660
we're literally saying that we want democracy we have we have our democratic transition plan
06:40:36.100
in place it's available online oh my gosh this guy's like this guy is like acting as if we
06:40:44.320
iranians are like a bunch of i don't know like i don't know savages who live in tents or something
06:40:49.600
uh that would completely shift the dynamic in the middle east all of a sudden uh hezbollah
1.00
06:40:56.000
hamas to be fair though you know like at least at least like at least he's starting to get on the
0.74
06:41:02.080
right the right track right so he's starting to get on the right path um you know at the very least
06:41:08.020
the fact that um these people are are talking oh my gosh raider is here raider i haven't seen you
06:41:15.000
a long time thank you so much thank you for the support always great to see you raider thank you
06:41:20.860
for being here no he you know what he hasn't he hasn't pissed me off it's just he just sounds
06:41:26.320
like an idiot right like like when we iranians hear someone talk like that about iran we're just
1.00
06:41:33.080
like okay are you stupid like do not know the difference between i don't know iran and like
1.00
06:41:37.300
libya or iran and like i don't know iraq or something like it's just honestly these people
1.00
06:41:44.600
just like they just expose their ignorance about iran and iranian culture the shiite extremist
06:41:50.560
paramilitary groups in Iraq, the Houthis, no longer have a primary backer. They're basically
06:41:55.960
cut off from all the stuff that they're getting from them. And right now, certainly with Hamas
0.72
06:42:01.680
and Hezbollah, they're facing pretty strong headwinds saying you have to disarm and you have
06:42:08.580
to quit being a terrorist group and you have to stop your governance role or trying to be
06:42:13.040
in a governance role. That's huge. The Houthis would have to figure out, okay, where do we go
06:42:18.440
from here? We no longer have our benefactor. How long can we sustain these operations that we're
06:42:23.220
doing here in the Horn of Africa? There'd be a huge change there. And then obviously it would
06:42:30.480
open the floodgates for probably expansion of the Abraham Accords. There's just a lot of
0.96
06:42:35.440
interesting things. And then China, they get a lot of oil. They import about 11 million barrels a day
06:42:41.060
of oil. Much of that does come from Iran. They all of a sudden wouldn't have a secure conduit
06:42:48.360
of oil going from Iran to China. Now, it doesn't mean they're going to get cut off from all the
06:42:53.700
oil. It doesn't mean that they may not negotiate something where they can get Iranian oil in the
06:42:57.520
future, but it does change the position of where they are now as opposed to where they could be.
06:43:03.040
You know, you and I have been tracking these reports closely all week, and information does
06:43:07.640
change as the days tick by. Some of the reporting I've seen from certain outlets say that a strike
06:43:12.820
could come within days. Some news outlets are saying that something could come as soon as
06:43:16.440
this weekend. If history is any indicator, Hal, would information like that be leaking to the
06:43:24.760
media if, in fact, something actually were planned as soon as this weekend or in the coming days?
06:43:29.920
Would they let something like that get out? Well, some of it may be speculation. Some of it
06:43:36.680
may be strategic deception. Keep them guessing. And certainly we have done that in the past. We
06:43:42.760
did that with the midnight hammer thing we're in the we're trying it's like oh we want to talk we
06:43:46.760
want to negotiate we want to work this and then boom we hit them all right uh so uh i kind of look
06:43:53.400
at where all the forces are arrayed it's it's you know right now the gerald r ford uh the carrier
06:44:00.120
task force is moving just just crossed the streets of gibraltar today moving across the mediterranean
06:44:06.200
it has its escorts with it it's moving about 18 19 knots from what i understand part of the reason
06:44:12.760
is so the escorts can keep up but they also have heavy seas and if the escorts try to go faster
06:44:17.680
they'd not only burn up a lot of fuel but they'd also probably take some damage and injuries and
06:44:22.060
stuff on board the ships so they're going to move at that pace that's going to take a while to get
06:44:26.140
there and then if they want to move move it from the eastern mediterranean uh into off the you know
06:44:31.920
into the arabian sea then it's got transit to the suez canal it's got to go past where the houthis
06:44:36.880
are it's got to do a lot of things that takes time so most people are thinking somewhere closer to
06:44:43.680
the middle of march everything will be in place that we could do something and i'm kind of leaning
06:44:49.360
towards thinking this weekend well too soon next week possible but there's a lot of compromises
06:44:55.920
in terms of where everything is but if you start pushing it out two weeks and into three weeks
06:45:01.200
then everything's in place. And that kind of lowers the risk, if you will, strategic risk
06:45:07.840
of launching the operation. President Trump's State of the Union speech is going to be on
06:45:12.460
Tuesday. It'll be interesting to see if he discusses what he says about Iran, I should say.
06:45:16.380
Not if he discusses it. We anticipate he will discuss the Middle East during his speech.

jihadis who are telling you that oh like iranians have islamic culture iranians wear hijab iranians
0.62
06:49:55.740
are muslim look at this woman here like from the back you can't tell if she's iranian or if she's
06:50:01.840
American, right? Like she's dressed, um, just like any like American woman in, in the 1940s.
06:50:08.980
Right. Look at that. And the guy's wearing like a suit, right? What became of this place? Jimmy
1.00
06:50:15.540
Carter, Jimmy Carter, Jimmy Carter, back to the Ayatollah and the communists and the jihadis.
0.62
06:50:31.840
look at that there's a store called hollywood laundry this is in the 1940s i think this is
06:50:40.080
probably right after world war ii probably um but look there's a place called hollywood laundry
06:51:29.120
for the record for the record um you know we don't see camels walking around the straits of
06:51:36.980
cities anymore but uh this is so funny guys this is like this is like the middle eastern version
06:51:45.280
of the wild wild west so you don't like back in like i don't know texas you'd have like i don't
06:51:50.960
know herds of like i don't know sheep or something walking through roads this is so amazing i honestly
06:51:57.340
I'm actually really enjoying the fact that there's camels, because I'll tell you something.
06:52:02.900
The first time I visited Iran, I was four years old. And that's obviously before I became
06:52:08.800
politically active, right? So when I was visiting Iran, as a four year old, I was so excited. I was
06:52:15.620
like, Oh, my gosh, I'm gonna go see camels, right? I'm gonna see the camels, I'm gonna see the
06:52:21.120
flying carpets that you know, whatever. Of course, I didn't know about, you know, the politics and
06:52:25.100
stuff. But when I got to Iran, one of my biggest disappointments was I never saw camels. My
06:52:32.800
family, my family members literally had to take me to a zoo. They had to take me to a zoo in order
06:52:39.500
to see camels because this, this does not happen anymore. I kind of wish it did. I kind of wish it
06:52:44.720
did. But this is from like, you know, like 80, 80 years ago now, 80 years ago. So 80 years ago,
06:52:52.060
they had camels crossing by, but not today. So, um, I wish, honestly, I wish this was still a
06:53:00.140
thing in Iran because this is like super cool. No, camel, camels are not going extinct. Camels
06:53:12.700
are just not used anymore because we have trucks and cars now, right? This is from the 1940s.
06:53:52.060
Oh, look at the donkeys, the donkeys are just, the donkeys are just going along.
06:54:20.060
oh look there was a place called the black cat bar so you could go in there
06:54:26.420
and drink right so you could literally go to the black cat bar in Tehran and
06:55:48.060
so do you see even the women even the women that wear hijab like they're not wearing like the big
06:56:06.500
black like garbage bags right the hijab is like it's colorful it's cute right but as you can see
06:56:14.460
like women had the freedom of choice so some women wanted to wear hijab and that was fine
0.99
06:56:19.800
no issues and then you know you see other women wearing no hijab right so again it's the same
06:56:24.800
thing like women had the freedom to choose whether or not to wear hijab it was it was like a normal
06:56:31.820
society before the islamic jihadis came over and took over you know with the help of jimmy carter
06:56:37.760
right and yet everyone's commenting on how clean the streets are yes because that's our culture
06:56:58.640
because we are uh you know civilized people so that's why even like um last week when we had our
06:57:06.240
you know global day of solidarity everyone was you know cleaning up and cleaning the streets right
06:57:12.000
because we we take pride in our cleanliness we take pride in um maintaining our homes right
06:57:20.640
so yeah of course everything is clean what what did you like did you guys think we're
0.79
06:57:24.640
what like bangladesh i'm sorry like the only reason iran is a third world country right
06:57:30.000
now is not because of the iranian people or iranian culture it's because um
0.93
06:57:36.240
is because um like we're you know overrun unfortunately right now by a brutal islamic
0.78
06:57:42.480
dictatorship like we're not somalia we're not bangladesh right like this is what iran was and
06:57:48.320
this is in the 1940s so oh the trolls are here let me just ban them i mean if you're accusing
06:57:55.280
me of being jew like i mean that's not an insult that's actually um that's a compliment like i love
06:58:00.960
jewish people so someone calling me a jew like that's that's a compliment i mean i'm not jewish
06:58:06.320
but i love jewish people and i love israel so yeah thank you thank you for the compliment
06:58:30.960
all right someone's asking if there were elephants in iran no there there were never
06:58:39.980
elephants are i mean elephants are not native to iran i think i think you've watched too much 300
06:58:48.500
in the movie 300 apparently the the persian army also rode rhinoceros that never happened
06:59:18.060
I think this is maybe the beginning of Mohammad Reza Shah's reign.
06:59:22.060
so um he like the shah of iran recognized that if you want to modernize society
06:59:28.920
women and men must be treated equally so yeah there were women in the army
07:00:22.060
so i would say i would say like guys this could look like you know a scene from america except
07:00:35.620
for the camels right because you got like the 1940s cars but then you have the camels so you're
07:00:41.540
like oh okay this this looks like america but what are the camels doing there
07:01:15.760
Oh we're back to Texas. We're back to Little Texas. Look how clean everything is. Clean,
07:01:43.760
I guess I could run a lot of cerca of 4 minutes.
07:01:44.760
I simply replaced the first time Iถsembly to the opening week.
07:01:47.760
It was just a little hard, because it's a little scary.
07:01:51.160
I know you can have tea and tea, and I never really ז Mend um that thing.
0.99
07:01:55.840
If you juga write something first and make a muy deal to the width, I forgot those ends
0.94
07:03:09.940
Let me see if I can find something else for you guys.
07:03:12.760
I mean, if you enjoyed that, I have other things that I can share with you.

It's called Iran Under the Pahlavi Dynasty, The Heirs of Cyrus the Great, full documentary, 1974.
07:05:49.320
Oh, look at that. Even in 1909, that wasn't the first time that Russia...
0.86
07:05:54.900
No, no, no. Guys, this isn't a criticism of Russian people.
07:06:00.820
I love Russian people, not a criticism of Russian people.
07:06:05.060
We're speaking about Russian government, like Russian government policy. We love Russian people.
07:06:12.880
No issues there. No issues with Russians whatsoever. I want to make that very clear.
07:06:17.980
Whenever I say like a country or something, I'm always referring to the government or the policies.
07:06:26.300
I'm never referring to the people. I love Russian people. Russian people are amazing.
07:06:30.840
I love Russian vodka. I love Russian food. I love, I love Salad Olvye.
07:06:39.700
Right? Like, guys, so you'll actually enjoy this, my Russian friend. Salad Olvye, which is like a
07:06:47.940
Russian, it's like a Russian chicken salad or something. We have our own version of Salad Olvye,
07:06:53.840
which actually originates from russia so we have that food in common as well but no please like
07:07:01.580
do not take this as an attack on russians not at all we're talking geopolitics we're talking
07:07:07.660
government it's like the same thing like i i listen i'm iranian i criticize the islamic regime
07:07:13.280
all the time it has nothing to do with iranians it's it's it's the government's right um
07:07:19.720
so please you are more than welcome here we love russians um yeah you know what the samovat
07:07:31.460
the samovat actually initially came from russia as well so yeah no no no please you are you are
07:07:38.980
more than welcome here i'm saying the disclaimer again we're speaking about governments not about
07:07:46.800
Russian people not and that's the thing like um wait someone's calling me a Muslim Republican
07:07:54.900
ew man don't insult me by calling me Muslim not that I have anything against Islam but
07:08:04.680
like just why would you do that we're through a weak and tottering government
07:08:09.560
no blood was shed and as minister of war he first reorganized the Persian army
07:08:14.700
and then began to pacify the country. To be fair, like, I don't know why they call this a coup d'etat
07:08:20.960
because it wasn't actually a coup d'etat. The Shah at the time was trying to give away Iranian land
07:08:28.900
and Iranian assets to the Russians. And then so Reza Khan went and he stopped that. So it wasn't
07:08:36.560
really a coup d'etat. It was like protecting Iran's territorial integrity. Like a coup d'etat,
07:08:42.920
a coup d'etat implies that you go in to take over control but he did it he went in he rescued the
07:08:49.040
country and then he like this is him here right so this is him he was the minister of war and he
07:08:56.700
went in to like protect the current shah at the time so calling it a coup d'etat is weird but
07:09:03.680
whatever. So there, there's always been shahs. There's always been shahs. What happened is that
0.98
07:09:16.200
the, the, the previous shah to that one was like giving away, um, Iranian assets to, to like
07:09:23.920
Russian Russians. And then, yeah, like it was, it was an anti-coup. Exactly. It was basically
07:09:30.520
like preventing the coup so he went in and he was like okay like stop giving away iranian assets to
07:09:38.540
the russians and then he didn't overthrow the shah he was basically um iran's minister of war
07:09:46.420
so he basically reported to the shah like like like listen
07:09:50.740
then prime minister is elected shah some months later in april whoa whoa whoa whoa did you catch
07:10:01.180
that did you catch that reza khan was elected he was elected as the new shah of iran
07:10:40.160
He was democratically elected to be the new Shah of Iran.
07:10:57.680
Reza Khan, then Prime Minister, is elected Shah.
07:11:05.900
Let's go back and listen to that, I don't know, one more time.
07:11:10.160
Because that's a slap in the face to every single like Islamist, jihadi, communist propagandist
0.88
07:11:17.800
who, you know, who's been calling, who's been calling our Pahlavi dynasty.
0.79
07:11:31.060
We have been telling you that Iran was a constitutional monarchy, right?
07:11:40.160
let's let's listen to this part again because it's it's beautiful music to my ears
07:11:46.620
when I say it's fine I'm like it's it's a saying it's like it is what it is I don't mean like it's
07:11:54.420
okay what happened I'm saying it is what it is we can't go back we can't go back and fix history
07:12:00.820
but at the very least the fact that his son oh my gosh are you if you're gonna like freak out
07:12:07.380
like I'll just ban you like can you not like freak out what I'm saying is that it's fine that his son
0.93
07:12:14.900
took over disgusting all right whatever if you want to freak out I'll just ban you I don't care
0.60
07:12:21.360
like I've already gone over this documentary in previous um like I've already gone over this
07:12:31.940
documentary and previous, like, videos. And when I say it's fine, I mean, you know, like, at the
07:12:38.820
very least, at the very least, like, his son, Mohammad Reza Shah Aryamir. So, there you go.
07:12:45.820
Like, that's what I mean. So, what do you mean? Like, it's fine that this happened.
07:12:50.340
i'm referring to the fact that king is of uh muhammad like shahanshah aryamir
07:13:02.220
was able to to take over that's the part that's fine of course like i literally
07:13:09.620
i literally started my sentence by saying that he was done dirty
07:13:13.760
well you know what he can go he can go to armin's channel and he can comment
07:13:18.860
if he wants to insult me, he can insult me in Armin's channel. I don't care, but I don't have
07:13:24.340
to tolerate insults. Did you catch that? Did you catch that? So back in the 1940s,
07:13:31.780
Iran had a prime minister. So, I mean, Persian constitutional revolution aside, because, you
07:13:38.920
know, the constitutional revolution of 1906 is what established the democratically elected
07:13:44.700
parliament of Iran. And, you know, of course, the first prime minister. But even in the 1940s,
07:13:52.280
there was a prime minister, right? So this in and of itself, literally, just, you know,
07:13:59.380
destroys the Mossad narrative, right? Because the communists and the Islamists,
0.91
07:14:04.200
they think that the history of Iran started in 1953. And they're like, Oh, well, you know,
07:14:09.920
In 1953, the CIA overthrew the democratically elected prime minister and installed the Shah.
0.64
07:14:34.860
is it um is it is it the one that was calling me disgusting is that the one you are
07:14:57.260
i don't know that i don't know that account i don't know that account i don't think i've
07:15:01.660
have banned that account. I have no idea what you're talking about then. I don't know what's
07:15:05.460
going on. All right. Anyway, so like I was saying, they like to say that Mossadir was
07:15:16.120
democratically elected and the first prime minister. But as you can see, well before Mossadir
07:15:24.900
us even mentioned we literally had prime ministers right the molotov's demands in moscow oil
07:15:31.580
concessions and approval the guys like this is how much respect iran had back in the day right
07:15:37.900
so the shah of iran right the late shah of iran seated right next to the queen mother of queen
07:15:46.500
elizabeth ii right like that that's not that's not an insignificant place to be
07:15:51.340
a sharp contrast between the poor and the rich one year after that visit to london the first
07:15:58.780
attempt on the shah's life is made oh yeah guys did you know did you know did you know that um
07:16:05.260
did you know the communists tried to assassinate our shah
07:16:11.020
and you know what he forgave them what sort of dictator what sort of dictator forgives the
07:16:19.820
communist terrorists who try to assassinate you yeah this is the stuff they don't tell you
07:16:29.100
exactly exactly so everything everything that that's being done to president trump right now
07:16:36.460
we've been through that because they've done it to our our sha so we see the patterns we see the
07:16:43.900
similarities it's crazy the world facing so sharp a contrast between the poor and the rich
0.96
07:16:54.060
one year after that visit to london the first attempt on the shah's life is made
07:16:59.340
he very narrowly escapes death behind that attempt is an alliance of the extreme right
07:17:04.380
and the extreme left reactionaries and communists oh look extreme right and extreme left
0.84
07:17:11.020
the islamists and the communists right even back in the day the islamists and the communists
0.63
07:17:17.340
i told you in the following years four more such attempts will be
1.00
07:17:21.340
you know the the people like like they did deserve the shah but it's just
07:17:41.580
you know iranians just they never thought they never thought that the vocal vicious minority
07:17:48.060
would ever be successful right um and it's it's taken us 47 years to to to learn this lesson and
07:18:00.040
make up for it but um we we do deserve the shah it's just the silent majority were scared of the
07:18:10.360
jihadis and then unfortunately because um because communism was so like popular at the time in the
0.67
07:18:18.560
70s um you know and then the islamists were very violent right people were just silent like like
07:18:29.600
my mother my mother was um she was young she was like 14 like 13 14 15 when uh when the revolution
0.94
07:18:37.380
happened. And it was like a change overnight. And it became very violent. And like one of her best
07:18:44.600
friends at the time was gunned down by Islamists and jihadis, right? Like, like a 13 year old girl
0.93
07:18:51.820
was shot to death by Islamists in the streets. So it was a scary time. It was it was a scary,
07:18:58.580
scary time. And then you know, the communists and the Islamists were being backed by Jimmy Carter.
0.55
07:19:07.380
the democrats so oh oh no i lost my spot wait where was i here we go
07:19:31.220
