00:00:25.820 The Poso Daily Brief.
00:00:30.000 We are in a fifth generational confluence.
00:00:39.520 A commentator, international social media sensation, and former Navy intelligence veteran.
00:00:46.160 This is Human Events with your host, Jack Posobiec.
00:00:49.100 Deliver us from evil.
00:00:50.560 The BRICS Summit is going on right now.
00:00:53.220 This is the Belt and Road Initiative.
00:00:55.460 This is the rise of the multipolar world.
00:00:58.060 Everyone is there except for Joe Biden and American powers.
00:01:04.400 The rise of the BRICS nations is, at this point, a certainty.
00:01:10.000 And Joe Biden's out there saying, oh, we can fight two wars at the same time.
00:01:14.840 For God's sake.
00:01:16.820 The most powerful nation in the history of the world.
00:01:19.500 In the history of the world.
00:01:21.160 For God's sake.
00:01:22.100 That's exactly what the Roman Empire said right before the collapse.
00:01:26.180 America is overextended.
00:01:28.240 America is overstretched.
00:01:30.160 And while America has been sending munitions and ammo and intelligence and focus to Ukraine,
00:01:36.400 we are now embarking on a new proxy war in the Middle East.
00:01:41.600 It will be the end.
00:01:44.060 Of Rome.
00:01:44.860 The end of Rome.
00:01:49.820 How does an empire die?
00:01:54.120 Does it collapse in one terrible moment?
00:01:59.300 No.
00:02:00.600 No.
00:02:01.820 But there comes a time when its people no longer believe in it.
00:02:06.760 Then, then, does an empire begin to die.
00:02:16.440 You've got potentially 25,000 American troops right there in harm's way.
00:02:22.580 Two carrier battle groups.
00:02:24.480 2,000 troops on the ground.
00:02:27.000 25,000 in total.
00:02:28.680 Remember, those aircraft carriers sitting ducks, thanks to new technology.
00:02:32.660 Sitting ducks.
00:02:33.360 The other missile, the DF-21D, has been described as the world's first anti-ship ballistic missile or carrier killer.
00:02:40.140 You get one below the waterline on an aircraft carrier.
00:02:43.180 You get a big one below the waterline.
00:02:45.780 5,000 sailors.
00:02:47.440 5,000 sailors each, not to mention two nuclear generators.
00:02:53.480 Are you ready for that?
00:02:54.920 Are you ready for the consequences of an American aircraft carrier lying at the bottom of the Mediterranean?
00:03:00.640 Lying at the bottom of the Black Sea?
00:03:03.160 Lying at the bottom of the Taiwan Strait?
00:03:05.340 Because buckle up, folks.
00:03:07.060 That is the scenario that Joe Biden is marching us straight towards.
00:03:12.780 We're the United States of America, for God's sake.
00:03:15.280 It is Mearsheimer's warning exactly what he told us would come if the United States continued this disastrous Blinken-Moulin policy hyper-escalation.
00:03:26.060 Hyper-escalation will come, and now, hyper-escalation's here.
00:03:33.280 Ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard today's edition of Human Events Daily here live, Washington, D.C.
00:03:38.660 Jack Posobiec.
00:03:39.340 Today is October 19th, 2023.
00:03:41.520 I know, Dominic.
00:03:42.220 Look, folks, I got two words for you.
00:03:44.880 Stay frosty.
00:03:48.640 Stay frosty.
00:03:49.580 I'm staying frosty.
00:03:50.440 Are you staying frosty out there?
00:03:52.200 Come on, guys.
00:03:53.160 Tell me you're staying frosty.
00:03:55.400 Look, we have a president who's going to give an address about Israel and Ukraine.
00:04:03.240 We all know the speech.
00:04:04.640 Of course, he doesn't know because he hasn't read it yet.
00:04:07.120 He hasn't thought of it because he can't think of anything in his brain.
00:04:10.100 And it hasn't been written for him yet.
00:04:12.680 But you know exactly what's going to come.
00:04:15.560 They've been seeding this narrative all week.
00:04:17.580 He's going to allocate resources.
00:04:19.340 You see, your taxpayer dollars, our taxpayer dollars, to continue the war in Ukraine.
00:04:23.960 And then commence commitment to a new war alongside Israel that he's going to talk about sending our sons, our daughters to the front lines.
00:04:37.220 And once again, it's the paramount importance.
00:04:40.080 Two carrier battle groups that we've already got there that Vladimir Putin has pointed out are already within range of Russia's hypersonic missiles.
00:04:52.760 And he's going to talk about the atrocities.
00:04:55.400 But make no mistake.
00:04:57.760 This is the same administration that fumbled the Afghanistan withdrawal.
00:05:03.860 This is the same administration that fumbled the Ukraine counteroffensive.
00:05:08.760 And it's the same administration that is sending all of us straight into the jaws of World War III.
00:05:20.780 You want Mearsheimer's warning?
00:05:23.140 This is Mearsheimer's warning on steroids.
00:05:26.920 Because Mearsheimer was only warning about great power war.
00:05:32.600 Now you've got terrorist groups.
00:05:34.420 You've got non-state actors.
00:05:36.000 And what's Biden doing?
00:05:36.920 He's decided that he's going to pick fights with all of them at the same time, even while he's going and funding groups that end up transferring money to places like Hamas, to places like Hezbollah, and others.
00:05:54.200 You see what Biden's doing, folks, is he's funding both sides of the war.
00:05:58.560 Well, stay tuned, because we've got the managing director of antiwar.com, the great Scott Horton, is going to be joining us today for almost the entire show.
00:06:11.080 And I want to go through this chapter and verse, not just the origin of this conflict, but how the best way to get out of it for everyone is.
00:06:21.840 Stay tuned.
00:06:22.420 Human Events Daily continues.
00:06:23.440 When I grew up in the hood, I rolled with bloods, and them boys had a saying.
00:06:48.900 You can't be listening to all that slappy, whack, trim out his outlets, a bam ship, nippy, bam, bam, like Human Events with Jack Posobiec.
00:06:59.080 All right, Jack Posobiec back here live, Washington, D.C. on this auspicious day.
00:07:04.280 President Biden about to give his address to the nation, this joint address from the Oval Office on not just the war, but the wars.
00:07:13.980 Because apparently the United States has decided to embark in two wars at the same time, in two different AORs, two different areas of responsibility around the world.
00:07:25.500 Not too far from each other, but at the same time, two major wars.
00:07:30.820 Folks, are you reading the headlines?
00:07:33.540 International threats, corruption here at home.
00:07:36.960 When is this going to end?
00:07:38.060 You see, the trouble is, it might end in danger.
00:07:42.600 And when the future is unstable, understand that access to food can be limited.
00:07:48.180 And you have to secure your own supply.

00:08:51.320 It's incredible.
00:08:52.420 I have no idea that these guys were this week.
00:08:54.120 Two football fields long.
00:08:55.580 Joe, Keith, the entire team there.
00:08:57.020 We had a great day.
00:08:57.940 They even let Tanya Tay drive the riot tank.
00:09:01.500 Can you believe me?
00:09:02.200 These guys are that prepared.
00:09:03.860 They're prepared for everything.
00:09:05.980 Our next guest is the director of the Libertarian Institute, the editorial director of Antiwar.com,
00:09:13.720 the host of Antiwar Radio.
00:09:15.600 He's done over 5,900 interviews since 2003.
00:09:22.540 He's the author of multiple books, including Enough Already, Time to End the War on Terrorism,
00:09:28.180 and is working on the forthcoming book, which I cannot wait to read,
00:09:31.520 Provoked, How Washington Started the New Cold War with Russia and the Catastrophe in Ukraine.
00:09:37.960 His name is Scott Horton, and he joins us now.
00:09:40.420 Scott, thank you so much for taking time to be with us.
00:09:43.060 Thank you very much, Jack, for having me.
00:09:45.460 So, Scott, how did we get here?
00:09:47.520 By the way, I'd love to talk to you about the Russia book,
00:09:50.020 but unfortunately, we don't have time to talk about just the Russia situation
00:09:54.280 because we've embarked on another situation,
00:09:57.080 even while we're in the midst of a current proxy war with Russia.
00:10:01.600 I've been talking about John Mearsheimer, the great Professor Mearsheimer,
00:10:04.960 and his warning of the U.S. attempting to overextend itself into multiple world conflicts at the same time.
00:10:11.160 And now here we are.
00:10:12.100 President Joe Biden is just hours away from delivering an address to the entire nation
00:10:16.760 on not only how we can, but why we should be embarked in two major world conflicts at the same time.
00:10:23.880 How did we get here, and what are the forces driving this?
00:10:28.140 Well, look, it's a huge and great question.
00:10:30.980 I would refer, first and foremost, really, to one of the greatest experts on all of this,
00:10:36.660 from the way you frame it there.
00:10:38.140 It's Pat Buchanan from the 1990s who ran for president.
00:10:41.820 He was Ronald Reagan, first Nixon, and then Ronald Reagan's speechwriter,
00:10:45.480 and CNN, and then MSNBC host.
00:10:48.640 And he ran against Bush Sr. in the primaries in 1992,
00:10:53.100 and then later switched to the Reform Party.
00:10:55.460 And he wrote this incredible book called The Republic, Not an Empire.
00:10:59.700 And Jack, basically at the end of the Cold War, 30 years ago,
00:11:02.920 the Soviet Union ceased to exist on Christmas Day, 1991, was the final day.
00:11:08.040 And at that point, there is a major section of the conservative and libertarian movement,
00:11:13.820 especially, that said, the Cold War is over, the emergency is over,
00:11:18.980 world communism is dead, now it's time to end our empire
00:11:22.860 and bring our troops home from around the world,
00:11:25.800 and let Europe and Asia take care of their own security needs.
00:11:29.120 As Ronald Reagan's ambassador to the UN, Gene Kirkpatrick,
00:11:34.200 who was herself a neoconservative hawk,
00:11:37.100 she said, oh, well, now we can be a normal country in a normal time.
00:11:42.300 She said, now we can shed the burdens of superpower status
00:11:47.740 and seek to preserve our own liberty in our own society here at home.
00:11:53.700 And instead, the National Security Establishment refused, Jack,
00:11:58.820 to just get a real job.
00:12:00.540 And they found reasons to expand America's footprint in the Middle East,
00:12:04.820 of course, with Iraq War I,
00:12:06.640 and then, you know, the rest of the Bill Clinton doctrine,
00:12:09.300 Iraq War I and a half through the 1990s.
00:12:11.820 And, of course, NATO expansion in Eastern Europe,
00:12:16.320 and also a buildup in Asia as well, but leave that aside for now.
00:12:20.020 And guess what?
00:12:20.760 It's no coincidence at all, and it's no conspiracy either.
00:12:23.780 There's books about it, New York Times articles all about it.
00:12:26.220 It was Bruce Jackson, an executive vice president from Lockheed Martin Marietta,
00:12:32.120 who founded the Committee for NATO Expansion
00:12:35.540 and the Committee for the Liberation of Iraq.
00:12:38.680 And this is just basic economics.
00:12:40.440 This is just basic rent-seeking by government contractors.
00:12:44.400 It doesn't matter whether it's, you know,
00:12:46.700 the military or any other government program.
00:12:49.020 They would rather get paid with tax money than have to compete in the marketplace.
00:12:53.580 And that was exactly what happened.
00:12:55.480 And not just them, but the national security bureaucracies themselves, of course,
00:12:59.960 the generals and all the spies at CIA and at the National Security Agency
00:13:04.860 and all these guys.
00:13:06.280 No one wants to give up their fiefdom.
00:13:08.260 If our base is not for containing the Soviet Union,
00:13:10.900 then maybe it's for interdicting drugs,
00:13:12.780 or maybe it's for threatening Iran,
00:13:15.060 or maybe it's for providing security from some pipeline we're building
00:13:18.820 to cut the Russians out of the Caspian Sea,
00:13:21.120 or some other project.
00:13:22.980 Anything but coming home.
00:13:24.980 And so what they did was they got us into the terror war,
00:13:29.380 and then they fought it for 20 years
00:13:31.460 and don't have a single thing to show for it.
00:13:33.880 And they, of course, started and built up this massive new Cold War with Russia,
00:13:40.240 which has now expressed itself in this horrific war in Ukraine
00:13:44.500 for the last year and a half that, as we all know,
00:13:46.720 could also spiral out of control into major power conflict.
00:13:51.280 And so, you know, you can stop me at any time.
00:13:55.420 But, you know, I think one thing I'd like to point out here
00:13:58.100 is you can see the bust of Ron Paul behind me there on the shelf.
00:14:00.760 And I hope probably most of your audience remembers
00:14:04.720 in the Republican primary in 2007,
00:14:08.640 well, hopefully there's young people who don't remember,
00:14:10.760 in the Republican primary in 2007,
00:14:12.840 Ron Paul got into a tangle with Rudy Giuliani in the debate.
00:14:17.060 It was in May.
00:14:18.200 And what happened was they fought over the cause of the September 11th attack.
00:14:21.920 And Ron Paul said that, look,
00:14:24.160 this was blowback from American foreign policy.
00:14:27.380 And Rudy Giuliani said, oh, how dare you?
00:14:29.680 You're saying America deserved it.
00:14:31.600 You're crazy.
00:14:32.440 And I don't know.
00:14:33.020 I demand you retract that or some ridiculous,
00:14:35.360 bullying, non sequitur statement.
00:14:37.500 And Ron Paul said, no.
00:14:39.320 The CIA coined the term blowback.
00:14:42.000 It means the long-term consequences of their foreign policies,
00:14:46.380 their secret policies.
00:14:48.180 And even, look, as we all know,
00:14:50.780 America had been bombing Iraq from bases in Saudi Arabia
00:14:54.860 for 10 years before September 11th.
00:14:59.620 And that was why they attacked us.
00:15:01.960 And further, he said, quite correctly,
00:15:04.420 that the reason they attacked us was actually to draw us in further.
00:15:08.620 And that's why they're glad we're in a sandpit in Iraq right now,
00:15:11.920 where they can bleed us to bankruptcy.
00:15:13.500 Our guys are within rifle range.
00:15:15.860 They can take their revenge and give us our own Vietnam,
00:15:19.200 like we did to the Soviet Union in Afghanistan in the 80s.
00:15:23.240 And this was just 100% correct.
00:15:25.500 And Rudy Giuliani didn't know what to say.
00:15:27.640 But millions of Americans said, you know, that's right.
00:15:30.360 I remember Bill Clinton bombing Iraq on,
00:15:32.840 according to the New York Times,
00:15:33.880 every other day on average for eight years straight
00:15:36.240 from bases in Saudi Arabia.
00:15:38.820 And I remember actually a little bit of Newsweek from 96 and 98
00:15:42.940 when they bombed the Khobar Towers,
00:15:44.640 which Clinton blamed on Iran, by the way.
00:15:46.300 And when they bombed the USS Cole and the African embassies,
00:15:51.020 that, yeah, this bin Laden guy's out to get us.
00:15:53.320 That was going on before September 11th.
00:15:56.120 And it was American foreign policies that had created it.
00:15:59.040 It wasn't radical Islam.
00:16:00.900 It was radical politics.
00:16:03.340 You know, you look at, in fact, all of the millions of people
00:16:06.480 who believe in Salafism and Wahhabism
00:16:09.080 and the most radical sects of Sunni Islam.
00:16:11.860 They don't all attack us.
00:16:13.220 They don't all join up ISIS,
00:16:14.640 even at the height of the Islamic State.
00:16:16.680 They had, what, a couple of hundred thousand fighters
00:16:18.260 out of 1.5 billion people.
00:16:20.600 It was bin Laden and his particular group,
00:16:23.220 him and his alliance with Egyptian Islamic Jihad,
00:16:25.920 that had this political ideology.
00:16:28.360 And we want to take on the American empire first
00:16:30.620 so we can have our local revolutions later.
00:16:33.320 And I don't want to say Bush fell for it
00:16:35.200 in a way that acquits him and says that,
00:16:37.360 oh, he was just a big dummy.
00:16:38.520 Because, in fact, the purpose of the September 11th attack
00:16:41.300 was to give Bush a crisis to exploit.
00:16:46.260 And, Jack, I don't know if you've ever read this,
00:16:47.760 but bin Laden's son, Omar,
00:16:49.740 gave an interview to Rolling Stone magazine in 2010.
00:16:54.260 And he said,
00:16:55.480 I was in Afghanistan in the year 2000.
00:16:59.160 And when Bush was elected,
00:17:00.700 he said, my father was so happy.
00:17:03.040 This is a president who will attack
00:17:05.800 and who will spend money and break the country.
00:17:09.180 In other words,
00:17:09.920 the big fake macho cowboy hat wearing,
00:17:13.760 you know, pampered,
00:17:14.820 not really tough guy from Connecticut
00:17:17.160 is going to,
00:17:18.860 with Mark written all over his forehead,
00:17:21.500 he's going to exploit this cynically.
00:17:24.880 And then that was the goal.
00:17:26.160 The same thing,
00:17:26.900 the same reasons the big new Brzezinski
00:17:28.460 and the Carter administration
00:17:29.720 tried to lure the Soviet Union into Afghanistan
00:17:32.320 was the same thing.
00:17:33.660 And by the way,
00:17:34.640 not to,
00:17:35.220 not to run you over,
00:17:36.540 but,
00:17:37.000 but also those are inextricably linked
00:17:38.780 because it was the same foreign policy establishment
00:17:40.720 that worked to build up the Mujahideen in that war,
00:17:45.340 which later,
00:17:46.200 and you had a lot of these Wahhabists
00:17:48.060 that of course the Saudis had already kicked them out.
00:17:50.900 The bin Laden,
00:17:51.800 these guys said,
00:17:52.320 we don't want anything to do it.
00:17:53.140 They worked with them at first
00:17:53.860 and they kicked them out
00:17:54.640 and said,
00:17:55.540 we don't want anything to do with you.
00:17:56.680 Then,
00:17:57.060 then they eventually had set up shop in,
00:17:59.480 in Sudan and some other places,
00:18:01.120 essentially took over Sudan.
00:18:02.640 And then Afghanistan comes over
00:18:04.160 and the Taliban gets picked up
00:18:05.520 and they say,
00:18:05.820 oh,
00:18:05.920 we're going to,
00:18:06.300 we're going to go over here now.
00:18:07.320 So you have,
00:18:08.140 it's,
00:18:08.340 it's,
00:18:08.560 it's still these remnants of the last war
00:18:11.080 that the United States had gotten involved in.
00:18:13.240 Oh,
00:18:13.400 this would be a great idea.
00:18:14.660 Let's build up this proxy force against our enemies.
00:18:17.020 It'll be so great.
00:18:17.920 What's the worst that could happen?
00:18:19.520 And then all of a sudden,
00:18:20.880 that group that we just decided to forget about
00:18:23.060 because we moved on to the next shiny object
00:18:24.940 comes back to smack us in the face.
00:18:27.180 And our answer isn't to,
00:18:29.240 to look and figure out what happened.
00:18:31.120 No,
00:18:31.280 no,
00:18:31.460 our answer is to double down
00:18:32.760 and continue the exact same policies.
00:18:35.920 This is a barn burner of an interview.
00:18:39.100 Everyone needs to stay tuned.
00:18:40.900 Scott Horton,
00:18:41.520 the great Scott Horton continues with us.
00:18:43.080 They talk about influences.
00:18:46.880 These are influences
00:18:47.860 and they're friends of mine.
00:18:51.140 Jack,
00:18:51.520 you're so like,
00:18:52.640 where's Jack?
00:18:54.640 He's got a great job.
00:19:01.440 All right,
00:19:02.040 Jack,
00:19:02.160 back live human events daily,
00:19:04.140 Washington,
00:19:04.660 D.C.
00:19:05.040 We are live.
00:19:06.080 I had a question for you guys.
00:19:07.600 Have you ever talked to the friend
00:19:08.900 and then just like a couple of minutes later,
00:19:10.580 you had ads that popped up on your phone
00:19:13.060 that related to that exact conversation?
00:19:14.720 Because that happens to me all the time.
00:19:15.600 I call it ad popping.
00:19:17.420 Do you feel like Big Brother is watching?
00:19:20.640 Or worse,
00:19:21.620 like every move you make is being tracked?
00:19:24.820 Sadly,
00:19:25.300 in our digital age,
00:19:26.260 that's not paranoia.
00:19:27.520 Between criminals,
00:19:28.540 government,
00:19:29.040 and corporate America,
00:19:30.000 it feels like personal freedom
00:19:31.500 and privacy is compromised 24-7.
00:19:34.600 That's where silent steps in.
00:19:37.320 Silent's not just a brand.
00:19:38.400 It's a statement for liberty
00:19:39.840 and against surveillance.
00:19:41.960 And what silent has
00:19:42.860 is patented signal blocking
00:19:45.400 Faraday cages,
00:19:47.020 excuse me,
00:19:47.480 bags,
00:19:48.420 sleeves,
00:19:49.200 even backpacks
00:19:50.400 that are suitable for every device
00:19:52.300 from your smartphones
00:19:53.480 to your laptops.
00:19:54.800 By placing your device inside,

00:19:58.560 all wireless signals,
00:20:00.320 ensuring that you're safeguarded
00:20:01.500 from digital eavesdropping
00:20:02.660 and unwarranted tracking.

00:20:30.500 I want to get back to it
00:20:31.420 with Scott Horton.
00:20:33.100 Scott, where we left off,
00:20:34.660 we were just kind of walking up to,
00:20:37.540 I guess, basically,
00:20:38.640 the origin story of 9-11
00:20:40.680 because for so many people,
00:20:43.080 you know,
00:20:43.280 they wake up one Tuesday in September
00:20:45.020 and all of this horror
00:20:46.580 and these nightmarish images
00:20:48.420 are going on over the screens.
00:20:50.680 I remember I was in high school
00:20:51.880 at the time.
00:20:52.660 I had no clue what was going on,
00:20:54.620 but I will tell you this,
00:20:56.960 that, and, you know,
00:20:58.120 people try to fact check me on it,
00:20:59.600 whatever,
00:20:59.720 I can't back it up,
00:21:00.500 but I had heard of Osama bin Laden
00:21:02.440 at the time.
00:21:03.200 I remember hearing about this guy.
00:21:05.180 I remember hearing about this group,
00:21:07.100 seeing the ABC interview
00:21:09.080 and wondering, you know,
00:21:10.020 what's going on
00:21:10.960 with all this Middle East stuff?
00:21:12.280 Why are we so involved over there?
00:21:14.240 And I wonder if this is one of those guys
00:21:15.920 because I remember he said
00:21:17.060 he was going to attack the United States
00:21:18.500 and then it turns out that it was him.
00:21:21.300 But it also turns out
00:21:22.800 that his group was a group
00:21:24.160 that the United States government
00:21:25.480 themselves had been funding
00:21:27.840 and supporting all the way
00:21:29.920 through the Afghanistan war.
00:21:32.580 And there's that sort of,
00:21:33.500 there's that sort of,
00:21:34.240 it's a meme,
00:21:35.040 but people took this
00:21:36.520 of Rocky III,
00:21:38.920 where it said this,
00:21:39.700 you know,
00:21:39.840 they changed the memorial.
00:21:42.340 It said,
00:21:42.520 this film is dedicated
00:21:43.340 to the brave Mahajin fighters
00:21:44.760 of Afghanistan.
00:21:46.220 Whoops.
00:21:46.680 It's not real, folks.
00:21:47.620 I know,
00:21:48.140 but it's a very,
00:21:49.040 very prescient meme.
00:21:50.520 If you understand
00:21:51.020 that in that film,
00:21:52.180 excuse me,
00:21:52.400 not Rocky III,
00:21:53.000 Rambo III,
00:21:53.440 that in Rambo III,
00:21:55.680 he's essentially fighting
00:21:56.620 with the group
00:21:57.300 that goes on to form the Taliban
00:21:59.140 and then form Al-Qaeda.
00:22:01.080 But,
00:22:01.260 but Scott,
00:22:01.840 this isn't the first time
00:22:03.240 U.S. intelligence services
00:22:04.700 and certainly not the last time
00:22:05.840 U.S. intelligence services
00:22:06.900 have worked with groups
00:22:07.920 like this,
00:22:08.300 is it?
00:22:09.880 No,
00:22:10.400 I mean,
00:22:10.740 and this is the thing about it,
00:22:11.940 like,
00:22:12.180 so just for people,
00:22:13.680 I'll try to do
00:22:14.260 the very fast version of this,
00:22:15.420 right?
00:22:15.820 So Carter and Brzezinski
00:22:17.240 have this brilliant plan.
00:22:18.620 They're going to lure
00:22:19.300 the Soviet Union
00:22:20.380 into Afghanistan
00:22:21.440 because since Vietnam
00:22:23.440 was such a wreck for us,
00:22:25.240 we'll give them
00:22:26.240 one of those.
00:22:27.520 Never mind what it did
00:22:28.400 to the people of Vietnam,
00:22:29.400 of course.
00:22:30.340 And the people of Afghanistan
00:22:32.040 were thought to be expendable.
00:22:33.660 If we,
00:22:34.280 if the people of America
00:22:35.240 have the Vietnam syndrome,
00:22:36.240 they don't want to contain
00:22:37.360 communism anymore,
00:22:38.680 well,
00:22:38.880 how about we bait them
00:22:39.680 into overexpansion?
00:22:41.160 We'll give them this headache.
00:22:42.580 And they did that.
00:22:43.400 And it wasn't just
00:22:44.580 the local Afghans
00:22:45.640 who fought,
00:22:46.240 of course,
00:22:46.520 none of whom are Arabs.
00:22:48.440 There's an entire Persia
00:22:49.880 between Afghanistan
00:22:50.780 and the Arabs,
00:22:51.580 everybody.
00:22:52.380 It was,
00:22:52.700 but a bunch of Arabs came
00:22:54.000 and not just that,
00:22:54.720 but Muslims from all over
00:22:55.600 the world,
00:22:56.060 including the United States
00:22:56.980 and Chechnya and Indonesia.
00:22:58.740 You got to Uzbeks.
00:22:59.700 Yes,
00:22:59.880 of course.
00:23:00.420 Right.
00:23:01.320 Right.
00:23:01.700 So they all came to fight.
00:23:03.400 Then when the war was over
00:23:04.700 at the end of the 80s,
00:23:05.740 the Soviet Union fell apart
00:23:07.340 partially because of that.
00:23:08.900 And the Americans
00:23:09.500 take credit for that.
00:23:10.420 The Reaganites take credit,
00:23:11.460 which is partially true
00:23:12.820 that the war in Afghanistan,
00:23:14.900 the headache America
00:23:15.540 helped give them there,
00:23:17.020 helped break the back
00:23:18.000 of the Soviet Union.
00:23:18.820 Well,
00:23:19.240 the Mujahideen
00:23:19.900 had learned the same lesson,
00:23:20.940 including this Arab Afghan army.
00:23:23.060 And so they realized
00:23:24.240 that they had the power
00:23:25.240 to break an empire
00:23:27.060 if they fought them hard enough.
00:23:29.200 And now here's the real game.
00:23:30.900 You know what?
00:23:31.480 Let me remind you
00:23:32.200 of something
00:23:32.460 that Vladimir Putin said
00:23:33.660 on the eve of war.
00:23:34.800 He was saying something
00:23:35.740 that he knew
00:23:36.220 was going to sound
00:23:36.960 like a conspiracy theory.
00:23:38.500 So instead,
00:23:39.180 he spun it the other way,
00:23:40.260 quite correctly.
00:23:40.960 In fact,
00:23:41.340 he said,
00:23:42.160 come on,
00:23:43.300 let's be adults about this.
00:23:46.240 We know what you
00:23:47.600 and Britain were doing
00:23:48.640 in Chechnya,
00:23:50.040 backing the terrorists
00:23:51.080 against us there.
00:23:52.480 That was true.
00:23:53.920 And that sounds
00:23:54.680 like crazy conspiracy stuff,
00:23:55.940 but it's not.
00:23:56.640 And I got the footnotes
00:23:57.420 in the last book
00:23:58.080 enough already.
00:23:58.660 And I got entire sections
00:24:00.160 on it in
00:24:01.220 from the Clinton years
00:24:02.280 in my new book.
00:24:03.160 And that was
00:24:04.180 the Moscow theater attack,
00:24:05.520 the Beslan school attack.
00:24:06.880 That's right.
00:24:07.840 Horrific, horrific
00:24:08.920 atrocities
00:24:10.440 that were perpetuated
00:24:11.440 to just innocent people
00:24:12.720 in these cases.
00:24:14.100 Yep.
00:24:14.460 And the American CIA,
00:24:16.680 the American,
00:24:17.700 if you catch me saying
00:24:19.040 the Americans,
00:24:19.920 I mean our national government.
00:24:21.620 They are too clever
00:24:22.900 by half all the time.
00:24:24.400 And they backed
00:24:25.180 these guys in Bosnia
00:24:26.380 and in Kosovo
00:24:27.480 as well as in Chechnya.
00:24:28.960 And in fact,
00:24:30.040 even in August of 01,
00:24:32.840 when,
00:24:33.840 you know,
00:24:35.320 a month before the attack,
00:24:37.340 it was the last stand
00:24:38.680 of the KLA
00:24:39.500 in their invasion
00:24:41.080 of Macedonia.
00:24:42.100 And they'd been trained
00:24:43.200 and armed by our Delta Force
00:24:44.680 to do this.
00:24:45.960 And this is even
00:24:46.540 during W. Bush.
00:24:48.220 And in fact,
00:24:49.060 a reporter friend of mine
00:24:50.400 named Eric Margulies,
00:24:51.380 he witnessed
00:24:52.260 essentially the
00:24:54.040 Pakistani ISI
00:24:55.500 slash Taliban
00:24:56.260 training Uyghurs
00:24:58.020 under American supervision
00:24:59.720 in Afghanistan
00:25:00.760 in the summer of 2001
00:25:03.260 for use against the Chinese.
00:25:05.560 So this is the kind of game
00:25:07.480 that they're playing.
00:25:08.060 Now, while this is happening,
00:25:09.300 I'm not a truther.
00:25:10.260 Don't,
00:25:10.620 please don't misunderstand me.
00:25:11.560 I'm not saying
00:25:12.360 that the CIA
00:25:13.020 had bin Laden attack us.
00:25:14.720 But what happened was,
00:25:16.000 essentially,
00:25:16.940 they sort of had
00:25:18.480 convinced themselves
00:25:20.780 that these guys
00:25:21.640 are harmless.
00:25:22.540 What are they going to do?
00:25:23.640 And in fact,
00:25:23.960 this is from the Weekly Standard
00:25:24.980 of all places,
00:25:26.340 that right after September 11,
00:25:28.300 they said
00:25:28.780 that the cliche
00:25:30.560 at the Pentagon
00:25:31.680 on the Joint Staff,
00:25:32.880 they would say,
00:25:33.800 terrorism
00:25:34.160 is a small price
00:25:35.940 to pay
00:25:36.460 for being a superpower.
00:25:37.920 In other words,
00:25:39.560 we can use these guys
00:25:40.820 against our Serb enemies,
00:25:42.100 we can use them
00:25:42.640 against the Russians,
00:25:43.360 we can do whatever we want,
00:25:44.980 but what are they going to do
00:25:46.380 to us?
00:25:47.720 Set up a truck bomb
00:25:48.580 here or there,
00:25:49.540 fail the sink
00:25:50.200 of a battleship,
00:25:51.340 right?
00:25:51.640 That was the way
00:25:52.220 they looked at it.
00:25:53.560 And then,
00:25:54.680 you're talking about
00:25:55.900 the same type of people
00:25:57.560 that in the past,
00:25:59.240 we're talking
00:25:59.780 Operation Mockingbird,
00:26:00.960 a lot of people know
00:26:01.700 about Operation Paperclip
00:26:03.020 where we said,
00:26:04.260 hey,
00:26:04.600 you know,
00:26:04.880 who cares if these guys
00:26:05.700 were Nazi officers,
00:26:06.620 they can get us to the moon,
00:26:07.560 so let's bring them over.
00:26:09.340 Talking about Operation Gladio,
00:26:12.240 where the U.S.
00:26:13.420 worked with these groups
00:26:14.800 to essentially plan
00:26:15.960 terrorist attacks
00:26:16.620 in Europe
00:26:17.820 to blame on the Soviet Union,
00:26:18.860 and then Operation Northwoods,
00:26:21.860 which of course,
00:26:22.580 very clear,
00:26:23.260 it was not executed
00:26:24.560 but Operation Northwoods
00:26:26.200 was a CIA plan
00:26:27.980 to conduct actual
00:26:30.200 terrorist attacks
00:26:31.160 in Florida
00:26:32.100 and other parts of Miami
00:26:34.060 and then blame it
00:26:35.460 on the government of Cuba.
00:26:37.280 So this idea
00:26:38.180 of the use of terrorism
00:26:39.600 has always been
00:26:41.360 very,
00:26:42.080 very tantalizing
00:26:43.420 to the U.S.
00:26:45.040 intel community,
00:26:45.940 even from the very start.
00:26:48.080 Afraid so.
00:26:49.300 I don't want to tell you,
00:26:49.980 man,
00:26:50.080 that's the history of the world.
00:26:51.160 And people can read my book
00:26:52.260 and it's endorsed
00:26:52.980 by Douglas McGregor
00:26:54.240 everybody's favorite
00:26:55.140 right-wing colonel
00:26:55.800 from the Tucker Carlson show
00:26:57.040 and, you know,
00:26:58.680 a bunch of other CIA spies
00:27:00.100 and Army veterans,
00:27:01.380 people who've been
00:27:01.920 to the terror wars
00:27:02.700 and back.
00:27:04.260 I'm obviously
00:27:05.240 not spinning
00:27:06.380 for bin Laden
00:27:07.280 or justifying what he did,
00:27:08.880 but I'm explaining.
00:27:10.040 Why would a guy like that
00:27:11.340 slaughter thousands
00:27:11.880 of Americans?
00:27:13.180 Well,
00:27:13.520 it's because he was
00:27:13.940 trying to get us
00:27:14.740 to react
00:27:15.340 and do something crazy.
00:27:16.860 And here's the thing,
00:27:18.020 Flight 77,
00:27:19.520 those hijackers
00:27:20.480 had fought
00:27:20.880 for Bill Clinton
00:27:21.480 in Bosnia.
00:27:23.000 And Khalid Sheikh Mohammed,
00:27:24.260 who was the main organizer
00:27:25.500 of the attack
00:27:26.140 for bin Laden,
00:27:27.160 he had fought
00:27:27.960 for Bill Clinton
00:27:28.740 in Bosnia.
00:27:30.960 And some of these
00:27:32.320 other guys,
00:27:32.920 their recruiters,
00:27:33.820 the guys who were
00:27:34.440 recruited in Hamburg,
00:27:36.240 Mohammed Atta
00:27:37.400 and Ramzi bin Al-Shib
00:27:38.480 and their group,
00:27:39.240 they were recruited
00:27:40.480 by a guy
00:27:41.140 who had these,
00:27:42.720 they were essentially
00:27:43.340 too young to have fought
00:27:44.380 in Afghanistan
00:27:44.860 in the 80s,
00:27:45.960 but they got to fight
00:27:47.060 their Afghanistan
00:27:47.860 in Bosnia
00:27:48.700 in the 90s.
00:27:49.980 And this is how they
00:27:50.760 quote,
00:27:51.340 earned their stripes
00:27:52.340 to become Al-Qaeda terrorists
00:27:54.400 to get the job
00:27:55.680 to attack us
00:27:56.680 on September 11th.
00:27:58.140 Now here's where
00:27:58.720 it gets messier.
00:28:00.360 Mohammed Atta,
00:28:01.280 who you see top left
00:28:02.520 there in your picture,
00:28:03.880 him and Ramzi bin Al-Shib,
00:28:04.980 there's a great book
00:28:05.640 about this,
00:28:06.120 Jack,
00:28:06.300 called Perfect Soldiers
00:28:07.340 by a reporter
00:28:08.640 named Terry
00:28:09.160 McDermott,
00:28:09.920 solid book
00:28:10.520 about these guys.
00:28:11.700 And what happened was
00:28:12.820 in 1996,
00:28:14.860 after an Israeli settler
00:28:16.220 assassinated Shimon Peres,
00:28:18.080 I mean,
00:28:18.340 pardon me,
00:28:18.960 Yitzhak Rabin,
00:28:20.120 the Prime Minister
00:28:20.760 of Israel,
00:28:21.920 his successor,
00:28:23.100 Shimon Peres,
00:28:24.180 launched a war,
00:28:25.740 a new attack
00:28:26.520 in southern Lebanon
00:28:27.480 against the Palestinians
00:28:29.720 there,
00:28:30.700 called Operation
00:28:31.700 Grapes of Wrath.
00:28:33.300 And they
00:28:34.300 bombed a UN shelter,
00:28:35.720 it's now called
00:28:36.120 the first Kana massacre
00:28:37.260 because it happened
00:28:37.940 again in 06.
00:28:38.840 10 years later.
00:28:40.200 But in 96,
00:28:41.160 they bombed
00:28:41.700 a UN shelter
00:28:42.480 and they killed
00:28:43.040 106 women and children.
00:28:45.740 And just when they
00:28:47.300 launched the war,
00:28:48.040 in fact,
00:28:48.440 before that,
00:28:49.320 was when Mohammed Atta
00:28:50.420 and Ramzi bin al-Shib
00:28:51.540 signed their last
00:28:52.620 will and testament,
00:28:53.480 which was like
00:28:53.920 joining the army,
00:28:54.700 basically dedicating
00:28:55.540 themselves to the cause
00:28:56.680 and eventually
00:28:58.120 finding their way
00:28:58.800 to Afghanistan
00:28:59.420 to meet bin Laden.
00:29:00.740 and then when
00:29:02.740 the grapes of
00:29:04.080 the bombing
00:29:05.340 of that shelter,
00:29:07.020 bin Laden
00:29:07.460 mentioned that
00:29:08.200 in his first
00:29:08.840 declaration of war.
00:29:09.880 Get this,
00:29:10.260 it's called
00:29:10.600 Declaration of War
00:29:12.080 Against the Americans
00:29:13.260 Occupying the Land
00:29:14.680 of the Two Holy Places.
00:29:16.380 Pretty subtle,
00:29:17.320 huh?
00:29:17.900 Anyway,
00:29:18.520 and it goes on
00:29:19.320 and on in there
00:29:19.840 about the Kana massacres.
00:29:21.120 What are the two
00:29:21.660 holy places?
00:29:23.400 Well,
00:29:23.660 Mecca and Medina,
00:29:24.440 the birthplace of Islam,
00:29:25.800 the Saudi Arabian Peninsula
00:29:27.000 where America has
00:29:28.120 who are white
00:29:29.500 Christian combat forces
00:29:31.060 occupying this territory
00:29:32.720 in order to wage
00:29:34.240 the no-fly zone
00:29:35.300 bombing campaign
00:29:36.260 and the blockade
00:29:37.380 against the people
00:29:38.140 of Iraq
00:29:38.740 in the aftermath
00:29:39.620 of Iraq War I,
00:29:40.980 which lasted all
00:29:42.000 through the Clinton years.
00:29:43.960 Right?
00:29:44.200 This is the beginning
00:29:45.300 of Operation Desert Shield
00:29:46.360 is what it was
00:29:46.740 originally called.
00:29:48.160 That's right.
00:29:48.800 From Desert Shield
00:29:50.380 1990
00:29:51.020 all the way through
00:29:51.940 including the war
00:29:52.800 and ever since then
00:29:53.780 it remained
00:29:54.360 and, you know,
00:29:56.360 we could,
00:29:56.820 there's a great tangent here
00:29:58.540 I won't take for time
00:29:59.720 but,
00:30:01.460 the point being,
00:30:04.100 okay,
00:30:04.700 so,
00:30:05.200 Bin Laden complained
00:30:07.900 about what Israel
00:30:08.820 was doing in Palestine.
00:30:10.440 So,
00:30:10.720 these Egyptian
00:30:11.460 graduate students
00:30:12.620 studying in Hamburg,
00:30:13.800 Germany
00:30:14.200 joined some Saudis
00:30:16.400 and Egyptian terrorists
00:30:17.920 to kill Americans
00:30:20.320 in revenge
00:30:21.360 in revenge
00:30:21.380 for what Israel
00:30:22.140 was doing in Lebanon.
00:30:23.400 Now,
00:30:23.700 that sounds very crazy
00:30:25.240 and confusing
00:30:25.920 to your mom
00:30:26.660 and your cousin
00:30:27.140 who don't know
00:30:27.700 about this stuff
00:30:28.420 but the fact of the matter
00:30:29.700 is, Jack,
00:30:30.480 that America backs
00:30:31.940 everything that Israel does
00:30:33.460 and that means
00:30:33.980 when they're being
00:30:34.600 a nice little Jewish boy
00:30:35.580 and minding their own business
00:30:36.540 and it also means
00:30:37.580 when they're committing
00:30:38.260 absolute horrible atrocities
00:30:40.240 against innocent men,
00:30:41.700 women,
00:30:41.900 and children
00:30:42.340 in Palestine
00:30:43.300 and at that time
00:30:44.320 in Lebanon as well.
00:30:45.460 And this was the motive
00:30:47.360 for the guys
00:30:48.280 that knocked our towers down.
00:30:50.160 So,
00:30:50.380 this comes back
00:30:51.120 to Pat Buchanan
00:30:52.060 and Republic,
00:30:52.920 not an empire.
00:30:54.100 Is it in America's interest
00:30:56.360 to be the policeman
00:30:57.900 of the world?
00:30:58.840 To take responsibility
00:31:00.000 for every conflict
00:31:01.500 in the world?
00:31:02.500 Because
00:31:02.680 Stop buzzing in my ear
00:31:06.140 about the boring people
00:31:07.500 at your office.
00:31:08.340 I'm trying to listen
00:31:09.120 to the new human events
00:31:10.620 with Jack Pozovic.

00:32:27.120 All right,
00:32:27.340 I want to bring it back in here
00:32:28.280 with Scott Horton.
00:32:29.000 So Scott,
00:32:29.480 you've been giving us
00:32:30.880 this master's level,
00:32:32.320 301 level,
00:32:33.260 I would say,
00:32:33.900 analysis
00:32:34.460 of the rise of,
00:32:37.880 you know,
00:32:38.080 we say it's all because
00:32:39.120 of radical Islamic terrorism,
00:32:40.340 but your point is exactly right.
00:32:41.760 There's lots of radicals,
00:32:43.580 there's radicals all over,
00:32:44.680 not just in Islam,
00:32:45.960 but in other ideologies.
00:32:47.680 Why do these groups
00:32:48.640 always seem to be the ones
00:32:49.800 that have the ability
00:32:51.820 to attack the homeland?
00:32:52.720 Well,
00:32:53.420 and it turns out
00:32:54.220 that they've had
00:32:55.980 a lot of assistance
00:32:56.760 from groups
00:32:57.720 within the homeland
00:32:59.180 to be able to do so.
00:33:01.220 Let's zoom in
00:33:02.340 a little closer though here
00:33:03.720 and bring things up
00:33:04.660 to the present day
00:33:05.460 because so everybody wakes up
00:33:07.920 on October 7th,
00:33:09.820 we see these crazy images
00:33:11.540 out of southern Israel,
00:33:13.720 this southern farming village
00:33:16.440 just slaughtered.
00:33:17.500 People,
00:33:18.100 kids,
00:33:18.500 the whole nine yards.
00:33:19.840 It's an absolute mess.
00:33:21.500 And for a lot of people,
00:33:22.720 you know,
00:33:23.740 for some people,
00:33:24.940 it may have been
00:33:25.220 the very first time
00:33:25.800 they heard of Hamas.
00:33:26.560 For other people,
00:33:27.120 they may have had
00:33:27.580 a general understanding
00:33:28.520 that Hamas is
00:33:29.540 this sort of anti-Israel,
00:33:31.380 pro-Palestinian group
00:33:33.420 over there.
00:33:34.460 But how did Hamas
00:33:35.940 become so powerful
00:33:37.180 and how did we get
00:33:38.080 to the point
00:33:38.720 where it seems
00:33:39.940 as though
00:33:40.560 not only were they powerful,
00:33:42.020 but the IDF
00:33:42.600 didn't seem to have
00:33:43.680 their eye on the ball?
00:33:45.700 Yeah.
00:33:46.160 Man,
00:33:46.580 it is such a complicated
00:33:47.680 mess over there
00:33:48.620 and, you know,
00:33:49.820 I won't necessarily
00:33:51.080 have to leave
00:33:51.780 some things out.
00:33:52.380 Yeah, yeah, Scott,
00:33:52.960 just break it down
00:33:53.520 for us in five minutes.
00:33:54.480 Come on.
00:33:54.820 It's so easy.
00:33:55.860 I'll try to be fair.
00:33:57.100 But let me say
00:33:57.880 it's a bit of a disclaimer
00:33:58.780 because I know people
00:33:59.480 get very upset about this
00:34:00.860 and people like to
00:34:02.800 really presume
00:34:03.860 other people's
00:34:04.820 point of view maybe.
00:34:06.400 But I'll just tell you,
00:34:07.220 I have an extended
00:34:08.060 family member of mine
00:34:08.980 who was murdered
00:34:09.560 by Hamas
00:34:10.320 in this thing, Jack.
00:34:11.440 And it's not someone
00:34:12.000 that I know,
00:34:12.960 but she was a peace
00:34:13.680 activist there.
00:34:14.860 And I know some people
00:34:15.560 on the right would say,
00:34:16.280 aha, well,
00:34:16.860 that makes her a sucker
00:34:17.860 or whatever.
00:34:18.260 But no,
00:34:18.740 I think that means
00:34:19.480 that if she had
00:34:20.800 had her way,
00:34:21.920 there would have been
00:34:22.480 a settlement.
00:34:23.460 We'd have figured
00:34:23.980 this out a long time ago
00:34:25.360 and she would not have
00:34:26.380 been in danger there
00:34:27.220 at all.
00:34:28.300 And so,
00:34:29.500 but I by no means,
00:34:31.700 you know,
00:34:32.480 take Hamas's side
00:34:33.720 or spin for them
00:34:34.620 or downplay
00:34:35.580 the level of their
00:34:36.740 atrocity here.
00:34:37.580 In fact,
00:34:37.820 I emphasize
00:34:38.540 the level of their
00:34:40.020 atrocity because
00:34:41.220 just like with
00:34:42.220 our war on terrorism,
00:34:43.660 we have to understand
00:34:44.800 this is an asymmetric
00:34:46.180 war by a group
00:34:47.580 that essentially
00:34:47.960 has no power,
00:34:48.960 right?
00:34:49.140 They have AK-47s
00:34:50.380 and shoes
00:34:51.060 and they're up
00:34:52.160 against essentially
00:34:52.980 a superpower.
00:34:54.180 And some M4s,
00:34:54.880 by the way.
00:34:56.560 Pardon me?
00:34:57.880 And some M4s recently.
00:34:59.960 Oh yeah,
00:35:00.420 and some M4s.
00:35:01.220 Not sure which
00:35:01.860 black market
00:35:02.420 they got those from.
00:35:03.600 Funny how that works.
00:35:05.840 Yeah,
00:35:06.140 but look,
00:35:06.620 I mean,
00:35:06.800 this is basically,
00:35:07.560 you know,
00:35:08.060 an Indian tribe
00:35:08.780 up against the
00:35:09.460 Union Army here,
00:35:10.640 right?
00:35:10.900 So how do they
00:35:11.720 get what they want?
00:35:13.340 And the answer is
00:35:14.620 the action is
00:35:15.400 in the reaction.
00:35:16.420 Saul Alinsky said that,
00:35:17.780 although I learned it
00:35:18.420 from a bircher.
00:35:19.100 I'm not a communist.
00:35:21.120 The great William
00:35:22.040 Norman Grigg
00:35:22.640 taught me that
00:35:23.540 and he was studying,
00:35:25.140 you know,
00:35:25.580 the politics
00:35:27.140 of communist terrorism
00:35:28.440 in the past.
00:35:29.700 And as Alinsky said,
00:35:31.160 and he wasn't talking
00:35:31.620 about terrorism,
00:35:32.320 Alinsky,
00:35:32.720 he was just talking
00:35:33.380 about,
00:35:34.020 you know,
00:35:34.360 kind of political
00:35:35.220 grassroots,
00:35:36.240 you know,
00:35:37.080 community organizing,
00:35:38.100 I guess.
00:35:38.640 But he was saying
00:35:39.200 the action is in the
00:35:40.380 reaction of the opposition.
00:35:42.480 And it's the same
00:35:43.240 thing applies here.
00:35:44.140 As Bin Laden
00:35:44.760 was trying to get us
00:35:45.720 to fully invade
00:35:47.360 the Middle East,
00:35:48.000 as Ron Paul said,
00:35:49.200 in order to drive
00:35:50.220 ourselves to total
00:35:51.040 bankruptcy and withdraw
00:35:52.120 finally the hard way.
00:35:54.340 In this case,
00:35:54.980 Hamas was trying
00:35:55.780 to provoke exactly
00:35:56.880 the war that you see
00:35:57.800 on your screen
00:35:58.420 right there.
00:35:59.240 This horrific
00:36:00.040 bombing campaign
00:36:01.600 that's already killed
00:36:02.640 thousands of civilians
00:36:03.880 by,
00:36:05.060 you know,
00:36:05.180 this campaign
00:36:05.740 by the Israelis
00:36:06.560 in retaliation.
00:36:07.980 Hamas,
00:36:08.420 Jack,
00:36:08.620 was trying to provoke
00:36:09.700 that.
00:36:10.160 Just as Bin Laden
00:36:10.780 was trying to provoke
00:36:11.540 America to bomb
00:36:12.480 and invade Afghanistan.
00:36:15.200 The idea being
00:36:16.700 that in the long run
00:36:18.120 this will work out
00:36:19.100 more positively
00:36:19.980 for them
00:36:20.540 because not just
00:36:22.100 Israel's reaction,
00:36:23.300 but then all the
00:36:23.980 counter-reactions
00:36:24.980 to Israel's reaction.
00:36:26.740 So now the question
00:36:27.440 is whether Hezbollah
00:36:28.320 is going to get involved.
00:36:29.560 What about all
00:36:30.060 those Shiite militias
00:36:30.940 in Iraq
00:36:31.440 who George W. Bush
00:36:32.440 fought all of
00:36:33.360 Iraq War II
00:36:34.120 to install Iran's
00:36:35.440 best friends
00:36:35.960 in power there
00:36:36.780 in the national government
00:36:38.600 and in all those
00:36:39.520 auxiliary militias
00:36:40.860 that support it?
00:36:42.520 And then,
00:36:43.380 I don't know
00:36:43.720 if you saw this,
00:36:44.580 but,
00:36:45.480 well,
00:36:46.060 it was just
00:36:46.700 some think tank weenie
00:36:47.780 from CSIS
00:36:48.900 said this,
00:36:49.900 but he's exactly right.
00:36:50.920 It was in reaction
00:36:51.960 to what turns out
00:36:52.820 to be the false story
00:36:53.980 of Israel
00:36:55.380 striking the hospital
00:36:56.980 the other night
00:36:57.740 that the protest movements
00:36:59.340 were incredible
00:37:00.220 immediately
00:37:00.960 and not only that,
00:37:03.100 but apparently
00:37:03.820 the governments
00:37:04.640 of Egypt,
00:37:06.300 Jordan,
00:37:07.240 Saudi,
00:37:07.600 and UAE.
00:37:08.600 These are the biggest,
00:37:09.740 most powerful
00:37:10.420 Sunni Arab states
00:37:11.880 that are friendly
00:37:12.600 with Israel.
00:37:13.740 They all called Israel
00:37:15.460 and demanded
00:37:16.420 that they not invade.
00:37:18.300 And I don't know
00:37:18.620 whether that's going
00:37:19.220 to stick or not.
00:37:19.920 Clearly the invasion
00:37:20.640 has been delayed,
00:37:21.460 but they are already reacting.
00:37:23.920 And part of the reasoning,
00:37:25.040 according to this
00:37:25.540 think tank weenie,
00:37:26.320 which makes perfect sense,
00:37:27.340 was because if the war
00:37:29.940 gets that much worse
00:37:31.500 and these sock puppet
00:37:33.080 Sunni kings
00:37:33.820 have to stay quiet
00:37:35.580 in the face
00:37:36.320 of that much worse
00:37:37.280 of a war,
00:37:37.880 then they cede
00:37:38.860 the whole field
00:37:39.780 to the Ayatollah
00:37:40.800 Khamenei in Iran
00:37:42.320 and his puppets
00:37:43.580 in Iraq, Syria,
00:37:46.320 and, or allies at least,
00:37:48.140 in Iraq, Syria,
00:37:49.460 and Hezbollah
00:37:50.100 in southern Lebanon.
00:37:51.500 And that makes
00:37:52.160 our Sunni sock puppet kings
00:37:54.320 look like total clowns
00:37:55.780 and discredits them
00:37:56.980 and empowers their enemies,
00:37:58.820 Israel's enemies too,
00:38:00.100 the so-called Shiite alliance.
00:38:01.340 So, in other words,
00:38:03.480 Hamas,
00:38:04.680 these scum,
00:38:05.860 these murderer terrorists,
00:38:07.460 by slaughtering
00:38:08.620 these innocent people
00:38:09.800 have played
00:38:10.760 a brilliant game
00:38:11.820 of chess here.
00:38:12.880 And they've got
00:38:13.520 pieces all over
00:38:14.740 the Middle East
00:38:15.340 moving.
00:38:16.140 Oh, careful, careful.
00:38:17.340 You know,
00:38:17.640 you get in trouble
00:38:18.280 if you say,
00:38:19.520 you get in trouble
00:38:21.140 these days
00:38:21.680 if you say
00:38:22.580 a terrorist
00:38:23.060 did something smart.
00:38:24.160 You know,
00:38:24.280 President Trump
00:38:24.900 said the same thing
00:38:25.580 the other day.
00:38:26.160 I saw that.
00:38:26.520 People were attacking him
00:38:27.800 saying,
00:38:28.360 he was saying,
00:38:29.680 don't underestimate
00:38:30.340 your opponent.
00:38:31.840 He was saying,
00:38:32.340 don't underestimate
00:38:32.920 these people.
00:38:34.480 Trump was saying
00:38:35.400 in that statement,
00:38:36.420 he was saying,
00:38:37.260 this is your enemy.
00:38:39.340 Period.
00:38:39.920 That was all he was saying.
00:38:41.440 And they go,
00:38:42.140 oh, you love them so much.
00:38:43.940 Give me a break, man.
00:38:45.520 You know,
00:38:46.120 look,
00:38:46.520 let's just pretend everybody,
00:38:48.340 people listening right now
00:38:49.400 who just hate me,
00:38:50.400 I guess I'm a commie
00:38:51.360 and a Hamas lover
00:38:52.260 and whatever.
00:38:53.080 Just pretend
00:38:53.860 that me and Jack
00:38:54.980 are at the war college
00:38:56.100 and this is the red team.
00:38:58.080 Okay?
00:38:58.500 We have to pretend
00:38:59.660 to look at the other side
00:39:00.860 for a minute,
00:39:01.660 guys.
00:39:02.480 Grow up,
00:39:03.300 deep breath,
00:39:04.480 take a drink of water.
00:39:06.320 There's another point
00:39:07.340 of view.
00:39:07.620 Stay frosty.
00:39:08.120 Stay frosty.
00:39:10.580 I'm sorry?
00:39:12.500 Stay frosty.
00:39:13.560 That's been our,
00:39:14.160 that's been our call word
00:39:15.260 of this,
00:39:15.680 our call sign of the week
00:39:16.540 is stay frosty.
00:39:17.880 We're staying frosty
00:39:18.760 around here.
00:39:19.320 Scott,
00:39:19.560 are you frosty?
00:39:20.100 I'm staying frosty.
00:39:21.400 That's right.
00:39:22.100 Look at this.
00:39:22.800 You gotta be,
00:39:23.920 this is a math problem.
00:39:25.140 Okay?
00:39:25.920 Forget,
00:39:26.620 you know,
00:39:28.280 normative.
00:39:29.320 This is descriptive.
00:39:30.580 We're trying to understand
00:39:31.660 exactly what's going on here
00:39:33.200 and what to do about it.
00:39:34.180 Right?
00:39:34.540 And you have to understand
00:39:36.080 and people don't understand.
00:39:37.420 I know they don't understand.
00:39:38.600 So let me say,
00:39:39.240 and I know time is short here,
00:39:41.420 that it sounds,
00:39:43.460 when we talk about
00:39:44.240 the Israelis
00:39:44.800 and the Palestinians,
00:39:46.300 like the Palestinians
00:39:47.360 already have
00:39:48.460 their own country
00:39:49.380 because,
00:39:50.140 of course,
00:39:50.360 everybody has
00:39:51.020 their own country.
00:39:52.180 That's,
00:39:52.600 you say,
00:39:52.960 Palestinian.
00:39:53.860 And you look at the map
00:39:54.820 and you see Gaza
00:39:55.480 and the West Bank.
00:39:56.480 I don't know.
00:39:57.500 But let me tell you something.
00:39:59.260 It's not.
00:40:00.960 And Ben Shapiro
00:40:02.080 will tell you,
00:40:02.980 and I don't know
00:40:03.460 about this round,
00:40:04.160 I haven't paid any attention,
00:40:05.200 but I know in years previous,
00:40:06.680 he makes the analogy
00:40:07.920 and says,
00:40:08.620 what will we do
00:40:09.420 if the Mexicans,
00:40:11.280 i.e.
00:40:11.700 the national government
00:40:12.940 of Mexico
00:40:13.420 and its military force,
00:40:15.040 were firing rockets at us?
00:40:17.340 But that analogy
00:40:18.660 is not apt.
00:40:20.900 The analogy
00:40:22.000 is these are Indians
00:40:24.380 on the reservation.
00:40:26.420 The Israelis
00:40:27.100 already conquered them,
00:40:28.640 beat them,
00:40:29.360 licked them,
00:40:30.220 whooped them
00:40:31.040 back in 1967.
00:40:34.100 Okay?
00:40:34.500 Even before that,
00:40:35.480 really.
00:40:36.020 But ever since 67,
00:40:37.680 all of Gaza
00:40:38.700 and all of the West Bank
00:40:40.140 has been under the control,
00:40:41.900 de facto annexed
00:40:43.320 by Israel.
00:40:44.540 So what you're seeing here
00:40:45.940 is not an invasion
00:40:47.020 across a border
00:40:47.980 as Shapiro
00:40:49.320 would falsely lead you
00:40:50.500 to believe.
00:40:51.040 What you're seeing
00:40:52.060 is essentially
00:40:52.620 a prison riot
00:40:53.700 like Attica uprising
00:40:55.460 or imagine
00:40:56.560 if out West,
00:40:58.040 Jack,
00:40:58.660 there were some Indians.
00:41:00.380 I won't pick on any tribe
00:41:01.920 and I don't mean
00:41:02.420 to cause any trouble here.
00:41:03.460 It's just an analogy.
00:41:04.700 But imagine some Indians
00:41:05.800 left the res
00:41:07.560 and went and scouted
00:41:08.420 a bunch of kids.
00:41:08.440 Scott, we are coming up
00:41:09.060 on a break.
00:41:09.760 Here's what I'd like to do.
00:41:11.420 I would like to give you
00:41:12.260 a chance to finish your,
00:41:13.440 to finish your thought,
00:41:14.960 to come up
00:41:15.780 on the other side of this.
00:41:17.140 I don't want you
00:41:17.540 to be cut off.
00:41:19.000 Can you do this in favor?
00:41:19.920 Can you stay for one more break?
00:41:21.180 We let you finish your thought.
00:41:22.400 Give everyone your coordinates.
00:41:23.480 Of course,
00:41:23.700 we told everybody
00:41:24.340 antiwar.com,
00:41:26.100 scotthorton.com
00:41:27.040 or scotthorton.org,
00:41:28.040 I think.
00:41:28.780 But just stay tuned to everybody
00:41:30.160 because we're going to let Scott
00:41:31.220 finish his thought.
00:41:32.020 I don't like cutting off people.
00:41:33.220 We're going to do that.
00:41:33.840 I'm always listening
00:41:36.880 to Human Events
00:41:37.660 with Jack Posobiec.
00:41:41.460 All right,
00:41:41.920 Jack Posobiec back here.
00:41:42.940 Human Events Daily.
00:41:43.960 Where we left,
00:41:44.900 Scott Horton,
00:41:45.800 you got cut off
00:41:46.700 by our obscene profit break.
00:41:49.140 But that's okay.
00:41:49.720 You're a libertarian.
00:41:50.520 I understand you people
00:41:51.320 are good with profit
00:41:52.680 and people making money.
00:41:55.020 By the way,
00:41:55.460 you know,
00:41:55.660 I didn't get a chance
00:41:56.580 to say this.
00:41:57.120 I don't think I ever
00:41:57.500 even mentioned it to you
00:41:58.320 as we were corresponding
00:41:59.080 offline a little bit.
00:42:00.520 But just got to give
00:42:02.240 a huge shout out
00:42:02.980 to one of your,
00:42:03.900 I guess,
00:42:04.780 former colleagues
00:42:05.580 at Anti-War
00:42:07.060 because one of the reporting,
00:42:09.860 what a piece of reporting
00:42:10.580 that I did in early 2017
00:42:12.160 was this report
00:42:13.040 on a fundraiser
00:42:14.000 that I dug up this thing
00:42:15.840 that Adam Schiff
00:42:16.880 was doing
00:42:17.300 with the Ukrainian arms dealer.
00:42:19.760 And actually,
00:42:20.520 Justin Raimondo
00:42:21.360 covered that in a column
00:42:23.340 way back at the time.
00:42:25.140 Of course,
00:42:25.820 Justin's no longer with us.
00:42:27.200 But for me,
00:42:28.020 you know,
00:42:28.280 kind of just getting started
00:42:29.240 in this whole game,
00:42:30.060 it was a huge boost.
00:42:31.160 So I always thought
00:42:32.500 it was it was an honor
00:42:33.940 to appear
00:42:34.940 in at least one
00:42:36.100 Justin Raimondo column.
00:42:41.140 Oh,
00:42:41.700 guys,
00:42:42.080 I think we just lost
00:42:42.880 back.
00:42:44.340 Sorry,
00:42:44.640 Justin.
00:42:45.060 Sorry,
00:42:45.500 Scott,
00:42:45.860 we lost you for a second there.
00:42:46.780 Just start.
00:42:47.220 Go ahead and start over.
00:42:47.920 We have you now.
00:42:49.240 I'm taking a note
00:42:50.360 because I thought
00:42:51.080 I had read
00:42:51.620 every Justin Russia column
00:42:53.760 on that whole site
00:42:54.680 in my research for my book,
00:42:56.060 but I'm going to have
00:42:56.660 to go back
00:42:57.180 and find that
00:42:57.940 and make sure
00:42:59.580 Adam Schiff,
00:43:00.680 Ukraine,
00:43:01.200 a taste of Ukraine.
00:43:02.700 So this guy,
00:43:03.360 he had his name
00:43:04.860 is Igor Pasternak.
00:43:06.060 He's got U.S.
00:43:07.080 and Ukraine.
00:43:08.280 Of course,
00:43:08.560 dual national U.S.-Ukraine.
00:43:10.580 And he'd been,
00:43:11.300 so he'd been hosting
00:43:12.180 a fundraiser
00:43:13.080 for Adam Schiff
00:43:14.220 all the way back
00:43:15.220 in 2017,
00:43:15.920 which is interesting
00:43:16.780 because I was told
00:43:17.620 the Ukraine war
00:43:18.460 took,
00:43:19.280 you know,
00:43:19.460 started in 2022
00:43:20.760 when Russia invaded.
00:43:21.940 I didn't think
00:43:22.500 anything actually happened
00:43:23.720 before.
00:43:24.620 You know,
00:43:26.660 worse.
00:43:27.060 No,
00:43:27.280 I'm not,
00:43:27.600 I'm not,
00:43:27.980 I'm not,
00:43:28.380 I'm not,
00:43:28.700 but I just wanted to,
00:43:30.100 I just wanted to say that
00:43:31.320 publicly as a,
00:43:33.060 as a thank you to,
00:43:34.260 you know,
00:43:34.440 to anti-war
00:43:35.100 and everything you guys did
00:43:36.060 because,
00:43:36.720 you know,
00:43:37.300 he made a lot of
00:43:38.000 even realized it
00:43:38.740 at the time,
00:43:39.280 but it definitely
00:43:40.040 was,
00:43:40.480 was very helpful
00:43:41.440 to establishing
00:43:42.680 that,
00:43:43.140 hey,
00:43:43.440 I'm not just some guy
00:43:44.420 who's,
00:43:44.780 you know,
00:43:45.160 posting junk
00:43:45.740 on the internet
00:43:46.240 that I'm actually
00:43:46.740 trying to do
00:43:47.140 something out here.
00:43:48.600 That's absolutely great.
00:43:49.640 And listen,
00:43:50.160 he may be long gone,
00:43:51.400 but I really urge people
00:43:52.420 spend a rainy Sunday
00:43:53.680 reading just for
00:43:54.560 Raimondo's articles
00:43:55.600 that archive
00:43:56.820 20 years from 99
00:43:58.380 through 19 there
00:43:59.580 at anti-war.com.
00:44:01.180 This is the best stuff.
00:44:02.300 And he wrote a book
00:44:03.180 called Reclaiming
00:44:04.200 the American Right,
00:44:05.500 The Lost Legacy
00:44:06.620 of the Conservative Movement
00:44:08.080 where he talks about
00:44:09.060 the real right
00:44:10.040 before the neoconservative
00:44:11.660 ex-commies came
00:44:12.780 and ruined everything
00:44:13.720 and turned it into
00:44:14.480 the war party.
00:44:15.640 And I know that your audience
00:44:16.640 will just love that.
00:44:17.680 It's Justin Raimondo,
00:44:19.200 just like the bureaucrat
00:44:21.000 up there of whatever
00:44:21.920 her name is,
00:44:22.480 Gina or something.
00:44:23.500 Anyway,
00:44:23.800 so look,
00:44:24.900 where we left off there
00:44:25.720 to wrap that up real quick,
00:44:26.940 I was accusing
00:44:28.240 Ben Shapiro
00:44:29.760 of using an inapt
00:44:31.140 analogy
00:44:31.740 in comparing
00:44:32.920 the terrorists
00:44:34.740 murderers
00:44:35.840 of Hamas
00:44:36.660 of the Gaza Strip
00:44:38.020 of essentially being
00:44:39.040 a national
00:44:39.680 government's military
00:44:41.020 attacking across
00:44:42.180 an international border.
00:44:43.620 And I'm saying,
00:44:44.400 no,
00:44:45.040 they're more like
00:44:46.000 Indians on the reservation.
00:44:47.800 And I think
00:44:48.520 that's very important
00:44:49.480 that people understand.
00:44:50.900 Again,
00:44:51.180 it doesn't justify
00:44:52.160 what they did.
00:44:52.880 I just called them
00:44:53.580 murderers.
00:44:54.160 They're murderers.
00:44:55.360 But the thing is about
00:44:56.560 responsibility
00:44:57.600 is it's a quality,
00:44:59.220 not a quantity.
00:45:00.240 So the individual men
00:45:01.420 who committed that atrocity
00:45:02.520 are responsible.
00:45:03.260 Their commanders
00:45:03.820 are responsible.
00:45:05.120 And the Benjamin Netanyahu
00:45:06.660 government
00:45:07.120 that's been in power
00:45:08.440 longer than any other
00:45:09.600 prime minister
00:45:10.220 in Israeli history
00:45:11.720 is also
00:45:12.960 obviously
00:45:14.000 incontrovertibly
00:45:15.980 responsible
00:45:16.560 for this entire
00:45:17.400 set of circumstances
00:45:18.400 in which this played
00:45:19.440 out as well.
00:45:20.880 But listen,
00:45:21.860 if out West,
00:45:23.000 Jack,
00:45:23.600 a bunch of Indians
00:45:24.680 left the res
00:45:25.700 and went and scalped
00:45:26.520 a bunch of innocent men,
00:45:27.620 women,
00:45:27.800 and children
00:45:28.260 and murdered them
00:45:29.200 in, you know,
00:45:30.400 Anglos in town,
00:45:32.400 they would be criminals,
00:45:33.960 they would be murderers,
00:45:34.940 they would be guilty
00:45:35.900 of an atrocity,
00:45:36.800 they would all get
00:45:37.620 the death penalty,
00:45:38.320 and they would be
00:45:39.480 held responsible.
00:45:40.720 And yet,
00:45:41.240 at the same time,
00:45:42.400 you and me
00:45:43.060 and everyone
00:45:43.600 would understand
00:45:44.440 that the great
00:45:45.600 white father,
00:45:46.480 Joe Biden,
00:45:47.220 back East,
00:45:47.940 has all the power
00:45:49.640 in the world
00:45:50.660 and they have none.
00:45:53.400 So,
00:45:54.060 whatever's going on here,
00:45:55.820 it must be something,
00:45:57.440 maybe Hillary Clinton
00:45:58.540 sold the uranium out
00:45:59.860 from under them
00:46:00.420 and they all got cancer
00:46:01.540 or something horrible
00:46:02.620 like that,
00:46:03.300 but there's something
00:46:04.340 going on
00:46:05.060 that would make them
00:46:06.140 do that,
00:46:06.620 not that it would
00:46:07.100 justify it,
00:46:07.960 but that we need
00:46:08.660 to understand
00:46:09.440 what's happening
00:46:10.420 on the reservation
00:46:11.200 out there
00:46:11.800 that people feel
00:46:12.700 they're being treated
00:46:13.600 so unfairly
00:46:14.560 that they would do this.
00:46:16.040 And that's why
00:46:17.060 this whole radical Islam
00:46:18.340 thing is a cop-out
00:46:19.500 because it says,
00:46:20.340 oh, Mohammed made
00:46:21.140 them do it,
00:46:21.840 when no,
00:46:22.720 in the case of Al-Qaeda,
00:46:23.820 it was Bill Clinton
00:46:24.660 made them do it.
00:46:25.820 And in the case of here,
00:46:27.520 it was Benjamin Netanyahu
00:46:29.280 made them do it.
00:46:30.480 That's what it was.
00:46:31.880 And I know
00:46:32.900 we're so short on time,
00:46:33.980 so I just want to share
00:46:34.660 with you this one quote
00:46:35.720 and people can go
00:46:37.000 and look at my Twitter feed.
00:46:40.020 If you just Google,
00:46:41.100 put my name,
00:46:41.860 Scott Horton Show,
00:46:42.860 in Twitter
00:46:43.300 with Starter Pack
00:46:44.980 and you'll see
00:46:45.760 I have this long thread
00:46:46.900 of Israeli
00:46:47.920 outright deliberate
00:46:49.600 support for Hamas.
00:46:51.240 But I'll share with you
00:46:52.100 just this one quote,
00:46:53.240 Jack,
00:46:53.600 and this is just from 2019
00:46:55.520 and this is Netanyahu
00:46:56.840 directly addressing
00:46:58.320 his cabinet,
00:46:59.900 okay?
00:47:00.640 He says to them,
00:47:02.200 anyone who wants
00:47:03.320 to thwart
00:47:04.120 the establishment
00:47:05.440 of a Palestinian state
00:47:07.280 has to support
00:47:09.080 bolstering Hamas
00:47:11.100 and transferring money
00:47:13.300 to Hamas.
00:47:15.080 This is part
00:47:15.980 of our strategy
00:47:16.860 to isolate
00:47:18.240 the Palestinians
00:47:19.040 in Gaza
00:47:19.820 from the Palestinians
00:47:21.160 in the West Bank.
00:47:22.820 It is impossible
00:47:23.780 to reach an agreement
00:47:24.760 with them.
00:47:25.660 Everyone knows this.
00:47:26.860 Of course,
00:47:27.220 that's the real point.
00:47:28.960 But we control
00:47:30.520 the height
00:47:31.120 of the flame,
00:47:32.360 he said.
00:47:32.900 That could have been
00:47:33.600 Bill Clinton talking
00:47:34.440 about al-Qaeda
00:47:35.040 in the 90s, right?
00:47:36.200 And then this came out
00:47:37.100 just the other day.
00:47:37.840 Let me summarize this.
00:47:39.020 One more.
00:47:39.460 One more here
00:47:40.000 from the Jerusalem Post.
00:47:40.600 Oh, okay, go ahead.
00:47:41.280 Go ahead.
00:47:41.480 Very quick.
00:47:43.100 Jerusalem Post,
00:47:44.240 female IDF border guard
00:47:46.420 is ratting on her bosses
00:47:48.240 because she warned them.
00:47:49.540 Hamas is up to something.
00:47:50.660 Hamas is up to something.
00:47:51.940 And she was told,
00:47:53.420 oh man, I just had it.
00:47:54.700 Hamas are nothing but punks.
00:47:56.980 They won't do anything
00:47:58.340 is what she was told.
00:48:00.460 So that was the attitude.
00:48:01.960 Quote,
00:48:02.340 Hamas is just a bunch of punks.
00:48:04.000 They won't do anything.
00:48:04.720 That's the correct quote.
00:48:05.840 And so this is
00:48:07.320 the imperial arrogance.
00:48:09.040 We control the height
00:48:10.420 of the flame.
00:48:11.420 No.
00:48:11.880 The flame just burned
00:48:12.820 the whole house down.
00:48:14.140 Netanyahu just let this happen.
00:48:15.840 And why, again,
00:48:17.340 why he wants
00:48:18.840 to keep Hamas in power
00:48:20.560 or wanted at least
00:48:21.840 to keep Hamas in power
00:48:23.520 in Gaza, Jack,
00:48:25.040 because they're the perfect
00:48:26.180 little enemy
00:48:27.140 so that he can turn to you
00:48:28.960 and say,
00:48:29.620 Jack,
00:48:30.040 you don't expect me
00:48:31.200 to negotiate
00:48:31.800 with these terrorists.
00:48:33.260 You don't expect me
00:48:34.380 to give up
00:48:35.020 a Palestinian state
00:48:36.760 to these bad guys.
00:48:38.280 And that's why
00:48:39.500 he prefers them.
00:48:40.940 And he says it himself,
00:48:42.320 if you want to thwart
00:48:43.540 a Palestinian state,
00:48:45.120 you must support
00:48:46.120 this policy
00:48:46.740 of bolstering Hamas.
00:48:48.200 And this is all
00:48:48.860 these quotes that I have
00:48:49.700 is all from
00:48:50.240 the Israeli press.
00:48:51.440 None of them
00:48:51.840 are in dispute.
00:48:52.880 His finance minister
