Stay Free - Russel Brand - Questions Over the Charlie Kirk Bullet as Iran Tensions Rise — SF698

00:00:00.000 The next step is to take a look at the situation.

00:00:01.000 The situation is that the situation is not the same as the situation in the world.

00:00:03.000 The situation is not the same as the situation in the world.

00:00:04.000 The situation is not the same as the situation in the world.

00:00:05.000 The situation in the world is not the same as the situation in the world.

00:00:30.000 I'm going to go to the hospital.

00:01:29.000 Trying to bring real journalism to the American people.

00:01:33.000 Hello there, you Awakening Wonders.

00:01:35.000 Thanks for joining me today for Stay Free with Russell Brand in this fragmented and peculiar world.

00:01:40.000 Let us find some unity and peace.

00:01:43.000 together, knowing that we won't find it in the broken shards of a tumbling, falling world or maybe in the fragmented cases of a found bullet.

00:01:52.000 Because our first story is that the bullet that killed Charlie Kirk on initial forensic analysis doesn't seem to be the bullet that was fired from an ar wielded by dear old Tyler Robinson.

00:02:10.000 Let's know in the comments and chat right now if that makes sense to you or whether you see it.

00:02:14.000 Come on, tell me in the comments right away.

00:02:16.000 Oh, well, it's because it's an inconclusive test, because a lot of tests are inconclusive when it's just a fragment of a bullet casing.

00:02:24.000 And notice too do you probably assess information that you encounter online really from a kind of a perspective of this is what I believe and I continually want confirmation of those beliefs as I make my way through life?

00:02:37.000 Let me know are you able to make that assessment?

00:02:40.000 Like there are stories that you want to be true.

00:02:42.000 For example, say if it came up, you know, Bill Gates proven to be a paedophile, does that make you go, ah, Good!

00:02:49.000 You know, or are you sort of neutral or like a Donald Trump paedophile? 0.90

00:02:54.000 Normally it's paedophile, isn't it?

00:02:56.000 Because I suppose that's the worst thing people can do until they dream up a new thing worse than that, which you can imagine and I bet be sure they are doing in the dark, peculiarly sanitary corridors and citadels of this new, weird, Extraordinary global power that turns us continually against one another on the basis of culture, religion, and other temporary forms of passing identity, so that they can.

00:03:22.000 Assert power over us in a variety of ways.

00:03:26.000 And there we are, dumbed down on a low frequency bandwidth, exchanging tokens mindlessly, never really recognizing that soon we will all be dead, individually and collectively.

00:03:40.000 Death is coming.

00:03:41.000 Repent, repent of your sins.

00:03:43.000 Let's get into the first story.

00:03:45.000 Before that, let me introduce these folks that here with me there's Jake over there in front of the flag of the United States Of America.

00:03:50.000 Why you've been smelling yourself for Jake?

00:03:53.000 Uh, what?

00:03:54.000 Well, I saw you sniffing at yourself. 1.00

00:03:57.000 Sniffing at yourself like a fox sniffing at its own butt. 0.99

00:04:00.000 Because you just got to know sometimes. 0.99

00:04:02.000 Got to know.

00:04:04.000 Oh, that's sweet.

00:04:06.000 Oh, that's a good.

00:04:07.000 I smell nice, I do.

00:04:08.000 I have cold showers pretty regular.

00:04:10.000 I showered outside today alongside a stranger.

00:04:14.000 She was in a different shower. 0.73

00:04:16.000 Nevertheless, I look forward to 25 years' time defending that statement.

00:04:21.000 Hopefully, there's some evidence there available that I can prove myself innocent because that seems to be the actual standard of the law.

00:04:28.000 Hey, Dave, what about you?

00:04:29.000 You're looking fresh.

00:04:31.000 Thanks.

00:04:31.000 Young.

00:04:32.000 Thanks.

00:04:33.000 Handsome.

00:04:34.000 Sexy.

00:04:35.000 Is it NADs?

00:04:36.000 Must be.

00:04:37.000 NADs coursing through your veins. 0.98

00:04:39.000 If you haven't tried our reborn products yet, try our reborn products now.

00:04:43.000 In particular, Methylene Blue.

00:04:44.000 And, you know, for the month of April, we've got a whole bunch of deals.

00:04:47.000 There's a link in the description right now that will allow you to get all sorts of deals, you know, good deals.

00:04:52.000 Massey, what about you, darling?

00:04:54.000 Where are you, Canadian?

00:04:56.000 Canada, mate.

00:04:56.000 Do I look as good as Dave?

00:05:00.000 Well, I don't know.

00:05:01.000 It's difficult because you're not in the same physical environment.

00:05:03.000 You do look quite well.

00:05:04.000 Your skin's got an even tone to it.

00:05:06.000 Yeah, you look well.

00:05:07.000 You look good.

00:05:08.000 You look good, mate.

00:05:09.000 You look good.

00:05:10.000 Okay, let's get into our first story.

00:05:12.000 The Charlie Kirk bullet, as it's become known, and gosh, I can't believe I'm talking about it in such abstract terms already.

00:05:17.000 It's the life of a human being.

00:05:19.000 But ever since he was murdered, people have said, well, there's something not right about this.

00:05:24.000 Was there a device down his shirt?

00:05:25.000 Palm pistols.

00:05:26.000 The usual new vocabulary that emerges in conspiracies.

00:05:30.000 We all have to learn what these peculiar things mean.

00:05:33.000 Of course, we've seen footage from the rear now, largely thanks to Candice Owen that doesn't show an exit wound.

00:05:39.000 What the people that are, you know, closely associated with Charlie Kirk, I'm talking about Erica Kirk and Turning Point, they say there's an extant investigation happening.

00:05:49.000 We can't talk about these things explicitly.

00:05:51.000 And as someone who's involved in a criminal trial myself, I know how restrictive these matters can be.

00:05:57.000 Let's look then at why people are talking about Charlie Kirk and the assassination of Charlie Kirk in a slightly different light.

00:06:03.000 And let's all remember, just from a little thing called history and the facts of life as we know them up till now, that.

00:06:09.000 It's never a lone gunman, is it?

00:06:11.000 It's never a lone gunman.

00:06:12.000 Lee Harvey Oswald?

00:06:14.000 Come on.

00:06:15.000 Whoever it was that killed Lee Harvey Oswald, Jack Ruby?

00:06:18.000 Come on.

00:06:19.000 Whoever killed MLK, Martin Luther King, Malcolm X, the Kennedy, is always a lie.

00:06:26.000 So, listen, this I will give you to ponder.

00:06:29.000 Whatever they tell you, dismiss that from the beginning and then start working, hopefully based on evidence, on what the truth might be.

00:06:36.000 Whether it's Charlie Kirk, you know, someone they might like, or someone else.

00:06:39.000 I mean, maybe now's the time to start.

00:06:41.000 Looking at Austin Butler again and start saying well, where's that ear injury man?

00:06:46.000 Where's that ear injury?

00:06:47.000 What's that?

00:06:47.000 What's with that photo op and the fight fight, fight moment?

00:06:51.000 Let me know where you are on the spectrum.

00:06:53.000 Are you someone that will say, Trump forever, I just like his prophetic, charismatic nature, he's an American mystic.

00:07:00.000 Or are you someone that's saying hey, thinking about it, now the world does seem to be, by and large, being run in the same sort of manner that it was prior to the election of Trump.

00:07:13.000 Let me know where you stand on that.

00:07:14.000 I know this is primarily on Rumble, and if you haven't got Rumble Premium yet, get Rumble Premium right now, because it supports us and helps us if you do that, and you'll get additional content.

00:07:24.000 It's not just for you, actually.

00:07:25.000 I mean, not just for me.

00:07:26.000 You get additional content.

00:07:27.000 I mean, that's how capitalism and consumerism works, isn't it?

00:07:30.000 You pay money, you get something.

00:07:31.000 In this case, you get more content from us, more content from Crowder, more content from Paul and Greenwald, and many of the other Rumble content creators, certainly, though I benefit from it.

00:07:40.000 But my point is this.

00:07:42.000 Are you beginning to recognize at last the futility of investing your spiritual energy in other human beings and other human ideas?

00:07:50.000 Certainly, that's the.

00:07:51.000 Point that I'm at, and I've been here before.

00:07:53.000 I've visited these various stations on the crossbar.

00:07:56.000 Let's talk about the Charlie Kirk assassination, the conspiracy theories, and the conspiracy facts that surround the murder of this young man.

00:08:04.000 He was a very brilliant young man, actually.

00:08:06.000 Let's have a look.

00:08:07.000 So, the bullet that killed Charlie Kirk does not match the rifle allegedly used.

00:08:12.000 Now, I've heard people say that it's just not conclusive.

00:08:15.000 It's just not conclusive, and often in 40% of cases I read, it's unable to identify in forensic ballistics, means the bullet was too fragmented or damaged.

00:08:24.000 for a conclusive positive match via rifling marks, not that experts ruled out the rifle or found an exclusion.

00:08:29.000 This is common with high velocity rounds.

00:08:31.000 Right, so in a sense, when you see that headline, obviously that headline's constructed, does not match, that's because now in this space we're all in, there are certain emotions and feelings and types of reporting that are successful.

00:08:44.000 And I suppose the reason the MAGA right has become so fragmented is because probably since the election of Trump, people all need their own audiences and need their own markets.

00:08:55.000 Probably we've been guilty of participating in that.

00:08:58.000 I'm certainly not saying I'm exempt from earthly pulls like money and survival and managing fear.

00:09:06.000 But actually, I'm becoming a little inoculated just due to ongoing stress, recognizing that every time you encounter stress now, stress, fear, anger, rage, despair, ennui, suicidal thoughts, really all you're actually doing is being confronted with an unavoidable, Condition of temporality, i.e., death.

00:09:31.000 That's the bookend of this.

00:09:32.000 We're going to die.

00:09:34.000 So, anytime you're overly invested in, yeah, but what about the World Cup or something, it's nice.

00:09:39.000 I'm looking forward to the World Cup.

00:09:41.000 But the truth is, whatever happens in that World Cup, whether England win it or whether it's just the site of endless terror attacks in the limitless cosmos, why would you care more about what's happening here than amidst the detritus in Saturn's rings?

00:10:00.000 Why?

00:10:00.000 If you don't believe in God, if you believe in God, it's because you believe there's something divine about human beings and we're charged with becoming a dwelling place to divine and holy power, which is the source of all true reality.

00:10:12.000 And while we're here in temporality, here in the matter and in the material and in the stuff, we're meant to in some way bend towards, incline towards the divinity that is our birthright, that's stitched into us, that's our formation and our foundation.

00:10:26.000 If you don't believe in God, then actually, I would suggest heroin and hedonism.

00:10:33.000 Because, like, that's as far as I can get on it.

00:10:35.000 But let's have a look at what's going on with Dan Bongino, significant Rumble streamer, former deputy head of the FBI, had this to say about the Daily Mail headlines.

00:10:47.000 Let's have a look at Bongino elsewhere on Rumble.

00:10:50.000 One of the most disturbing headlines I've ever seen the headline about the Charlie Kirk trial.

00:10:56.000 Here's the Daily Mail headline from last night.

00:10:59.000 I mean, again, one of the most disgusting.

00:11:01.000 I've not really looked at Dan Bongino's face since he's been deputy head of the FBI before now, and he looks different, doesn't he?

00:11:08.000 He looked a bit worn out.

00:11:10.000 Like, my friend one time told me that he was once doing a farm visit, and on that farm visit, there were trays of chicks, you know, young hens, little yellow chicks, this being Easter and all.

00:11:21.000 And he said that in one of the trays, all the chicks was alive, and in the other tray, the chicks were all dead.

00:11:27.000 And he said to amuse himself, he picked up one of the living chicks and showed it all of the dead chicks, and then put it back with the living chicks.

00:11:40.000 I reckon that chick looks how Dan Bongino looks now.

00:11:44.000 Like he's just seen too much stuff.

00:11:46.000 And he's just like, what?

00:11:48.000 Okay.

00:11:49.000 I'm going back to Rumble. 1.00

00:11:51.000 Fuck that. 1.00

00:11:52.000 Now he's got to go through going, okay, so what are they doing over there in the government? 1.00

00:11:57.000 Having just now seen, oh my God, it's all a terrible Luciferian plot and it doesn't matter.

00:12:04.000 You literally could go, I'll vote for AOC, I'll vote for Bernie Sanders, or you could say I'll vote for JD Vance or Trump and it wouldn't matter.

00:12:12.000 It wouldn't matter.

00:12:13.000 And I'm not saying that to condemn any of the four individuals that I just listed.

00:12:17.000 I'm saying that if Lucifer is in charge of the world, fallen light, Fallen one, evil principle, evil prevailing principle is what dominates earthly institutions.

00:12:29.000 Those powers, those celestial powers, can accommodate people being Latin or Catholic or communist.

00:12:39.000 They're not like, oh no, we had control through our power of the demonic realm, but this guy's been circumcised. 0.65

00:12:47.000 Ah, shut it down, shut it down.

00:12:51.000 The only thing that can possibly defend you against evil is dying unto yourself. 0.99

00:12:57.000 You commit suicide, but you stay alive.

00:13:00.000 That's the only way through list. 0.99

00:13:01.000 Let me know in the comments and chat if you agree with that or if you think, I don't know, maybe if you collect enough pogs or baseball cards or blowjobs or cars, maybe it'll be okay for you. 0.80

00:13:13.000 I don't know.

00:13:13.000 Maybe you can weasel your way through materialism successfully.

00:13:17.000 If you can, let me know because the spiritual route, I'll tell you from personal experience, it ain't easy, baby.

00:13:22.000 It ain't easy.

00:13:23.000 Let's continue with Dan Bongino, the man who's seen too much.

00:13:26.000 I mean, again, one of the most disgusting things I've seen in a long time.

00:13:30.000 Bullet used to kill Charlie.

00:13:32.000 So, presumably, at the FBI, he saw like the Epstein files.

00:13:36.000 Like, so that's kind of as bad as a misleading headline.

00:13:39.000 With all due respect to that and the Bongino army out there.

00:13:42.000 Bullet used to kill Charlie Kirk.

00:13:44.000 Quote, did not, not in all caps, appealing again to the lowest common denominator.

00:13:49.000 Did not match rifle allegedly used by suspect Tyler Robinson.

00:13:53.000 New court filing claims.

00:13:54.000 So, the bullet used did not match the rifle allegedly used by suspect Tyler Robinson.

00:13:59.000 Here they write in a piece the bullet that killed conservative commentator Charlie Kirk.

00:14:03.000 May not match the rifle.

00:14:05.000 Oh, used by Tyler Robinson.

00:14:06.000 That's interesting.

00:14:07.000 Well, now it's may not.

00:14:09.000 I don't think Tyler Robinson killed Charlie Cook.

00:14:11.000 Do you?

00:14:11.000 I mean, just because I've seen him and he looks like a bit like.

00:14:15.000 Like, you know, when you see in a movie, like someone has to join the army who's not meant to be in the army.

00:14:19.000 I'm thinking of British films mostly.

00:14:20.000 And like they give him a rifle and they're like, I don't know which way around it goes.

00:14:24.000 I feel like Tyler Robinson would flap under, like if you give him a rifle and went, shoot that guy over there.

00:14:30.000 Like, can you imagine how difficult it is to. 0.99

00:14:34.000 Kill someone in broad daylight.

00:14:36.000 You go up the stairs, you shout the rifle, you lay it out, you fix the sight.

00:14:38.000 Now, Eddie Gallagher on our show, he did say they're pretty easy to operate if you've had some training.

00:14:44.000 But I think, like, psychologically and spiritually, unless you are, like, Eddie Gallagher's a Navy SEAL who's, like, been brutalized by the, you know, by Hell Week and such training to be a Navy SEAL, then being an active combatant in the military.

00:14:58.000 So, you know, but if you're some guy who's the rest of the time, as far as I can understand, living with what?

00:15:02.000 A fluffy, a furry, a care bear, just at home, dressing up in big diapers.

00:15:07.000 And cuddling someone and pretending to be made out of fluff or whatever they do to pass the time these days.

00:15:12.000 And by the way, if you've gotten yourself into that kind of state, you might want to renegotiate your relationship with God because if the only way you can get a kick out of reality is to dress yourself up as a rabbit and jerk off in a mirror, I'd say you're missing some of the cosmic downloads that are of vital importance.

00:15:28.000 Nevertheless, when I see old Tyler Robinson, I don't think there's the kind of cold blooded killer. 0.95

00:15:32.000 Like the same with the other one, Austin Butler, that other little pale, real calf of a lad, that little Pale lad that done nothing but be in a BlackRock commercial, and then all of a sudden we were meant to have believed they shot Donald Trump in the earlobe. 0.79

00:15:46.000 I mean, the whole thing is starting increasingly to feel like a dreadful sham, and I say that as a man who would like American citizenship.

00:15:53.000 A not.

00:15:53.000 I thought it said did not.

00:15:55.000 Guys, are you reading the same thing I'm reading, Justin?

00:15:57.000 The title says did not, right?

00:15:59.000 But his defense attorneys talking about.

00:16:01.000 I think Butler's a place.

00:16:03.000 Butler, Pennsylvania.

00:16:04.000 Where was Butler?

00:16:06.000 I don't know.

00:16:07.000 His defense attorneys, talking about Mr. Robinson, who's, by the way, entitled to a vigorous defense, his defense attorneys now argue that the ATF was, quote, unable to identify the bullet recovered at the autopsy to the rifle allegedly tied to Mr. Robinson.

00:16:21.000 So now it gets even worse.

00:16:23.000 Now they're not only saying may not, now they're saying it couldn't match at all because the bullet base.

00:16:29.000 The problem is this like when you get granular, you can make anything make sense.

00:16:32.000 You can make any number, any number of pivotal decisions.

00:16:36.000 Flip flops, changes of direction makes sense.

00:16:39.000 You can do that.

00:16:40.000 But the thing is is now, don't most of us know one way or another?

00:16:46.000 Say, if you're a social justice warrior, eco kind of person, Lgbtq plus your, your opinion will be, you can't trust the state, you can't trust the media.

00:16:55.000 They've always had it in.

00:16:56.000 For us, the whole thing's a shirab. 0.98

00:16:58.000 Or if you're a right wing libertarian, gun owning survivalist redneck you're. 0.70

00:17:02.000 I can't trust the state there, you can't trust the media.

00:17:05.000 No one anymore.

00:17:06.000 Who is it?

00:17:06.000 Who are the people that, like say, 1950s, think of like a bit of footage of the 1950s?

00:17:12.000 There we are, they're moving in droves to suburbia.

00:17:14.000 White goods have made the housewives life an easy one. 1.00

00:17:19.000 Where's the normal people?

00:17:20.000 There's no one left that's like that now.

00:17:22.000 In my country, in your country, everyone's in total disarray and chaos.

00:17:27.000 And nostalgia is about as good as it gets, but we're not going backwards.

00:17:30.000 That's not how time or entropy or molecular movement operates.

00:17:34.000 So we've got to move forward.

00:17:35.000 And it looks like what we're going to have to go through It's a sort of a pretty serious initiation, a pretty serious initiation where at some point we're able to say, look, you know, we've got to put aside these mad cultural disputes and recognize that we don't know very much and maybe ideology and politics are not good bedfellows at all, that politics should be reduced to a kind of blunt bureaucratic managerialism and because it is suboptimal,

00:18:04.000 because managerialism and anything voided of spiritual value is, of course, potentially a problem, in order to... mitigate the damage that can be done by politics, let's decentralize wherever possible.

00:18:17.000 Don't let power accumulate except where necessary.

00:18:21.000 Let's start a politics of referenda.

00:18:24.000 Talk about what your country needs.

00:18:26.000 What does it need?

00:18:27.000 Is it primarily you think external threat?

00:18:30.000 You want a military strong enough to prevent external threat.

00:18:33.000 Good.

00:18:33.000 Get some military analysis and AI analysis to look at what that is and then perhaps agree, okay, we want this much tax for that.

00:18:41.000 Everything else, localize it.

00:18:43.000 Stop pretending you can run populations of 330 million people from a group of 400 people in Congress or the Senate or wherever who have all been horribly corrupted by the process.

00:18:54.000 The outliers, you'll get one Thomas Massey a generation who's someone you think like, well, he seems like he's like a reasonable guy.

00:19:02.000 And, you know, you've got to chew through the Disney World attending genitalia of a hundred Lindsey Grahams to get to a Massey. 1.00

00:19:10.000 Like people that will vote for and pay for whatever.

00:19:13.000 Weird pink people turning up in theme parks, extraordinarily childless in weird ways, advocating for war, the least belligerent and bellicose and martial looking people on earth saying yeah, let's have yet more war, let's have yet more war, i.e the systems. 0.97

00:19:30.000 You don't want a system that is contingent upon the reliability of a politician, do you?

00:19:35.000 Whether you're AOC fan or Trump fan, or a JD fan or a Kennedy fan or a Newsom fan or whichever personality you want to nail your colours to the mast of Once they enter into the system?

00:19:50.000 Come on, come on, surely enough.

00:19:54.000 Is enough, but that's just what I think.

00:19:55.000 Let me know what you think in the comments and chat.

00:19:58.000 Surely, the time for the politics and personality is at an end, and what you want is direct digital democracy wherever possible, and that no other idea will work.

00:20:06.000 But hey, I'm just me.

00:20:08.000 Here's Joe Rogan talking about the bullet theory himself because now there's video footage from behind.

00:20:14.000 The round that he was shot with was a 30 odd six, which is a big round that's a round you kill a moose with, and it doesn't even have an exit wound, right?

00:20:23.000 Big block of jelly they shot.

00:20:25.000 What was that?

00:20:26.000 Have you ever shot a 30 out of 6?

00:20:28.000 No, I've not.

00:20:28.000 And what if I shot a big block of jelly like that?

00:20:30.000 What is that big block of jelly?

00:20:32.000 Ballistics jelly.

00:20:34.000 Everyone knows that.

00:20:35.000 You don't know about ballistics jelly.

00:20:36.000 Everyone knows that.

00:20:37.000 It doesn't sound like a real thing, ballistics jelly.

00:20:39.000 And I'm just English enough to believe him.

00:20:42.000 Hold on.

00:20:43.000 Can we go back?

00:20:44.000 Have an exit wound.

00:20:45.000 Right.

00:20:45.000 It don't make no sense.

00:20:46.000 We look at the ballistics jelly again, Jake.

00:20:49.000 What if we just.

00:20:49.000 Stop and start again.

00:20:51.000 No sense.

00:20:52.000 It makes zero sense.

00:20:53.000 Like, we haven't seen that guy, the guy who loves furries, who's supposedly.

00:20:58.000 Killed Charlie Kirk.

00:20:59.000 We haven't seen him talk.

00:21:00.000 No.

00:21:01.000 He hasn't said he did it.

00:21:02.000 Isn't that because he's under arrest and stuff?

00:21:03.000 I mean, I don't know.

00:21:04.000 I don't know how it works in your country.

00:21:06.000 He hasn't said he did it.

00:21:07.000 He hasn't said he didn't do it.

00:21:08.000 There's no independent video of him talking about it.

00:21:11.000 Yeah.

00:21:11.000 And then there was footage of him, like, at a yogurt shop.

00:21:14.000 Right.

00:21:14.000 Way across.

00:21:15.000 Press stop, and then.

00:21:16.000 Because now there's video footage from behind.

00:21:18.000 The round that he was shot with was a 30 odd six, which is a big round.

00:21:23.000 That's a round you kill a moose with.

00:21:24.000 Uh huh.

00:21:25.000 And it doesn't even have an exit.

00:21:26.000 The way it quivered itself up onto its side like that, like reverse Jenga, like Jelly Jenga, like it went all From horizontal to vertical in a dirty jelly wobble.

00:21:35.000 Let's get some of that.

00:21:37.000 Do you have some ballistics jelly?

00:21:39.000 Send it to us.

00:21:40.000 Here we are in the panhandle in the Redneck Riviera.

00:21:43.000 We're just a bunch of good old boys.

00:21:44.000 You want to fire our firearms at ballistic jelly.

00:21:47.000 I manufacture my own ballistics jelly in my downstairs, in my nut bag.

00:21:54.000 And that's frankly all it's fit for these days ballistics jelly. 1.00

00:21:57.000 Shoot it out of your genitalia into an ice cube tray, then shoot it. 1.00

00:22:02.000 Not worrying, it looked like it had a fish in it. 1.00

00:22:04.000 Did it look like it had a fish in it?

00:22:06.000 Yeah, that's you too.

00:22:08.000 Hey, my sparks my, my boys can swim.

00:22:11.000 They've got high motility.

00:22:13.000 I went to the doctor.

00:22:14.000 They had to throw away the chart.

00:22:15.000 They said we've never seen such virility testosterone like this.

00:22:18.000 There must have been a mix up.

00:22:19.000 Is this bigfoot's bigfoot's testosterone?

00:22:22.000 We never seen sexiness like this.

00:22:24.000 We never seen this kind of virility.

00:22:26.000 Let's have a look at any newspaper head like, yeah no, that's not good.

00:22:29.000 Yeah no yeah, we're gonna have to, we're gonna have to put you in jail sir, you're just too sexy baby, you're just too sexy. 0.91

00:22:35.000 So there you go.

00:22:36.000 It doesn't make sense from the Joe Rogan angle either. 1.00

00:22:39.000 Let's all learn about the palm pistol, which is what I call my penis. 0.99

00:22:42.000 Take a look at this man right here, folks. 0.99

00:22:44.000 This is Charlie Kirk's security guy.

00:22:47.000 He appears to have a palm gun in his right hand, and he aims it at Charlie Kirk and squeezes the palm gun, firing off around directly into Charlie Kirk's neck.

00:23:01.000 As you can see, folks, in the right fist between the middle finger and the ring finger is the barrel of the palm pistol.

00:23:06.000 You see him squeeze the palm pistol, firing off around into Charlie Kirk, murdering Charlie Kirk.

00:23:13.000 Charlie Kirk.

00:23:14.000 Now, if you pay attention to that right hand, it's going to go down into that left tricep area into a hidden pocket.

00:23:22.000 You can see him stuffing that palm pistol in there.

00:23:25.000 His right hand.

00:23:26.000 You can't see it.

00:23:27.000 I've not got very good eyesight, so I'm just watching it and I'm going, I cannot see any of the things you're describing.

00:23:32.000 But, like, remember those magic eye pictures?

00:23:34.000 They were hard.

00:23:35.000 I struggled with them as well.

00:23:36.000 Like, What?

00:23:38.000 Is a dinosaur?

00:23:39.000 Now, if you just squint, you can see Charlie Kirk's being murdered by his closest friends.

00:23:43.000 I mean, I'm just like, what a terrible world we live in where we just have to, like, where the reaction to this is, like, well, Erica Kirk, she's obviously some sort of lunatic and Charlie Kirk's mates all killed him.

00:23:55.000 I mean, I hope that isn't true because I've had enough now, ever knew, of everything just being evil the whole time and just delighting in it.

00:24:01.000 Like, the world is such a mess that people sort of like the idea that Erica Kirk might be a lunatic and, like, Charlie Kirk's mates all gang together to shoot him with.

00:24:10.000 Weird little handshake buzzer looking guns.

00:24:13.000 It's such a terrible, awful business.

00:24:16.000 Already, I'm a person who actually met Charlie Kirk a few times and knew him some, and already I can't aggregate it anymore.

00:24:24.000 Like, the deluge of information is so much, so fast, so radical.

00:24:28.000 Think about it.

00:24:28.000 We've said before on this show that the million monkeys at a typewriter theory is a reality now.

00:24:33.000 Well, you know, as in they said, if you had a million monkeys typing for an infinite duration, they would, of course, eventually recreate the entire works of Shakespeare.

00:24:41.000 That's like a sort of one of those philosophical maxims people use.

00:24:44.000 Well, consider this.

00:24:45.000 That the kind of information freight and attention freight put on this killing, on this murder, on this terrible, terrible crime has been so sort of fraught and overwhelming.

00:24:55.000 It's like already Erica Kirk has lived a Jackie Onassis life.

00:24:58.000 Charlie Kirk has experienced the JFK's worth of analysis in bits of data, in bits of data, in bits of scrutiny.

00:25:07.000 The world can't handle this much attention.

00:25:10.000 We need to be anchored in God even to use this technology.

00:25:13.000 This technology, untethered from divinity, is by definition luciferian, because it's a kind of excuse me counterfeit creation of the of consciousness is itself a omnipresence.

00:25:28.000 We've created an unholy consciousness.

00:25:30.000 Therefore it is by default diabolical.

00:25:33.000 Now look, I apologize, I burped in the middle of that.

00:25:36.000 Don't let that undermine the quality of my observation.

00:25:38.000 Let me know in the comments and chat if you've got on that and wherever you're watching this, join us on Rumble.

00:25:43.000 We'll be continuing with the analysis of the Charlie Kirk story, but first should we do an advert?

00:25:48.000 Here's a message just from a homeless guy I met in the street outside and he just told me a really harrowing story about after years of military service.

00:25:55.000 It's not, it's just a commercial for a product here.

00:25:57.000 Let's have a look.

00:25:58.000 Oh no, tax. 1.00

00:26:13.000 It's simply not fair.

00:26:14.000 We need a revolution.

00:26:15.000 Till then, though, did you retire and suddenly get hit with a tax bill we didn't expect? 0.98

00:26:54.000 That's how they want it.

00:28:58.000 See, keep giving us money.

00:29:00.000 So, who's not going to want adverts like that?

00:29:03.000 Although, Massey, I think you could have come out after the Alex Honold jokes and stuff.

00:29:06.000 I mean, that last 30 seconds, that was a bit boring.

00:29:08.000 We didn't like the guy with the topknot.

00:29:12.000 He's in there 2 0.

00:29:13.000 Yeah, I wouldn't like that bit.

00:29:21.000 Of course we're not.

00:29:21.000 You're being woke somewhere.

00:29:22.000 You're probably not even real.

00:29:23.000 You're AI.

00:29:24.000 You're AI, top knot.

00:29:26.000 All right, come on.

00:29:28.000 Let's continue with our work.

00:29:29.000 Here is the official story around the murder of beloved Charlie Kirk.

00:29:34.000 May you rest in peace.

00:29:34.000 Let's look at it.

00:29:36.000 Charlie Kirk, during an event at Utah Valley University, was shot on September 10, 2025.

00:29:42.000 From nearly 400 feet, or about 120 meters away.

00:29:46.000 The gunman had been lying in wait.

00:29:48.000 A single round tears through the air, hitting Kirk in the neck.

00:29:52.000 The crowd erupts in panic.

00:29:54.000 The shooter immediately ran across the roof as people scatter in fear.

00:29:58.000 He leaps to the ground and disappears into the neighborhood.

00:30:01.000 Officers rush to the stage.

00:30:02.000 Kirk is pulled away and taken to a hospital.

00:30:05.000 A massive manhunt begins.

00:30:07.000 Heavily armed police search every corner.

00:30:10.000 Nearby, officers recover a Mauser bolt action rifle, hidden in the woods and wrapped in a towel.

00:30:16.000 Meanwhile, the suspect flees nearly 250 miles south to his hometown of St. George, Utah, where his father confronts him after recognizing him in surveillance images.

00:30:26.000 Tyler admits his role.

00:30:29.000 33 hours after.

00:30:31.000 It doesn't look like quite a good computer game.

00:30:34.000 Like, if you extract it from the human tragedy, like, you know, how long before that becomes.

00:30:41.000 You know, I see my kids on Roblox.

00:30:43.000 How long, you know, they're taking terrible liberties with Pepper Pig and a game dressed in press that's.

00:30:49.000 Out of control, also, if you ask me.

00:30:51.000 But then, one of my wife's friends, I understand, is playing with Barbie dolls.

00:30:54.000 I don't know.

00:30:55.000 But, like, how long before it's like you can be a lone gunman shooting, you know, choose, you're a celebrity?

00:31:00.000 Would that, like, people would like that game?

00:31:04.000 Yeah, Massey, you'd play it.

00:31:05.000 I'd play it as Erica Kirk.

00:31:06.000 That'd be great.

00:31:08.000 Play it as Erica Kirk. 1.00

00:31:09.000 Shoot Charlie Kirk, then get on stage, cry about it, then go shoot someone else. 1.00

00:31:13.000 Fire up the glitter cannon. 1.00

00:31:15.000 Now, listen, she's a grieving widow, so.

00:31:21.000 I mean, I think you're out of order.

00:31:22.000 She's not grieving anymore.

00:31:25.000 People grieve differently.

00:31:27.000 They grieve different.

00:31:30.000 People grieve differently.

00:31:32.000 Dancing like Michael Jackson and moonwalking.

00:31:35.000 Well, Michael Jackson for one.

00:31:37.000 Okay, let's have a look at Candace Owens talking about the gun ages ago. 1.00

00:31:42.000 To be fair, Candace Owens, you've got to admire that woman. 0.90

00:31:46.000 She got, I was going to say balls of steel, but I suppose labia of steel is better. 0.99

00:31:52.000 Iron labia, because this woman, she is not afraid. 1.00

00:31:56.000 She will go out there and she will say it.

00:31:59.000 And here she is saying pretty early on.

00:32:01.000 Later in the point, look, what.

00:32:03.000 Do you from the online, if you can't trust CNN, if you can't trust MSNBC, if you can't trust Fox, if you can't trust the BBC, like, why are you, why are we making high demands of your Tucker Carlson's, your Candace Ammons, your Joe Rogan's, your whoever's?

00:32:17.000 Because maybe all they need to be is entertaining.

00:32:19.000 You can't, like, veracity and reliability is not a claim that can be made by the insignia-smothered denizens of that mainstream media world.

00:32:31.000 They can't make that claim.

00:32:32.000 Hey, we're the New York Times!

00:32:34.000 You know, hey, we're MSNBC!

00:32:38.000 Or you can't trust any of them anyway.

00:32:40.000 So why would you not expect a degree of fallibility from someone like Candace Owens or Ben Shapiro?

00:32:47.000 It doesn't matter really, does it?

00:32:49.000 No one can make any claim for anything other than a subjective attempt to trawl through near infinite information and make sense of it.

00:32:58.000 That's why old Russ here is in the gate trying to abnegate self.

00:33:02.000 And I've had a lot of self.

00:33:04.000 I really have.

00:33:05.000 And.

00:33:06.000 Surrender to the word and become a channel of God's peace.

00:33:08.000 Now, what I would say is that He has made us individually and uniquely, so you will become who He intended you to be.

00:33:14.000 You will become who He intended to be, who He made.

00:33:16.000 I was like, you know, when Paul said in Galatians, I was talking to Jamie Winship earlier, and he said, like, that Paul knew in my mother's womb, says Paul, I think in Galatians, I was made to be the protector of the Gentiles.

00:33:29.000 So, all the time, he's out there nutting off Gentiles wherever he can, pursuing Gentiles willy nilly, holding people's coats while dear old St. Stephen's martyred. 0.97

00:33:38.000 Well, not to within an inch of his life, but till he's naught but ashes, he knows that he has that identity.

00:33:44.000 Find your identity in Christ.

00:33:46.000 Find your identity in Christ.

00:33:48.000 And, you know, if you're a Catholic, then you agree that there are non-scriptural documents that are fundamental to your faith, the catechism explicitly.

00:33:56.000 Therefore, I wonder if we might look openly at the book of Enoch and the book of the Gospel of Mary and the Gospel of Thomas.

00:34:05.000 And as long as it's not in conflict with fundamental scriptural ecclesiastical matters.

00:34:12.000 Well, we've got a little bit more furniture because I believe we're in a cosmic and spiritual war.

00:34:15.000 But that's just why I think, let me know what you think in the comments and the old chat kin.

00:34:21.000 See what Candice was saying way back when.

00:34:23.000 Charlie Kirk was shot from the front and the bullet did not exit.

00:34:29.000 And at least a fragment of the bullet was recovered right around here.

00:34:36.000 Oh, God, I can't watch it.

00:34:36.000 So think of it.

00:34:37.000 It's too gruesome.

00:34:38.000 But, like, you know, you can use it in a longer video in the sort of pre tape cut one if you want to.

00:34:42.000 Alright, so she thinks the FBI were involved.

00:34:44.000 Let's go to this thing here.

00:34:45.000 Let's go to Proverbs.

00:34:46.000 There are six things the Lord hates, seven that are detestable to him.

00:34:49.000 Haughty eyes.

00:34:50.000 Yeah, I hate that as well.

00:34:51.000 So that's my nature in God. 0.88

00:34:52.000 A lying tongue.

00:34:53.000 Yeah, I hate it when I do that or when I experience it. 0.81

00:34:55.000 Hands that shed innocent blood.

00:34:57.000 We're sick of that.

00:34:58.000 A heart that devises wicked schemes.

00:34:59.000 Yeah, what's the point?

00:35:01.000 Feet that are quick to rush into evil.

00:35:02.000 That's all of us getting excited online.

00:35:04.000 A false witness who pours out lies. 1.00

00:35:06.000 I'm getting pretty tired of that crap, let me tell you. 0.99

00:35:08.000 And a person who stirs up conflict in the community. 0.99

00:35:11.000 Good advice there from Solomon before he himself went wildly off. 0.99

00:35:15.000 Track and decided the best thing to do with the gift of life granted to us by an unknowable cosmic power, or it can be known in the person of Christ, is to have sex with loads of concubines. 0.94

00:35:26.000 Now, I'm not claiming to be Solomon, certainly not in the wisdom department, but I spent some of my time doing that and. 0.65

00:35:33.000 All in all, it's not worth it, all things considered.

00:35:36.000 So, let us wrap up on the latest developments in the Charlie Kirk matter.

00:35:40.000 In the space we live in now, people will rush to conclusions.

00:35:44.000 What that rush will be is the inhered energy in them finding an external locust and moving towards it, like a light switch being put on.

00:35:53.000 Don't think of it anymore as new information.

00:35:55.000 Think of it as a stimulant, a stimulant that engages an already present internal.

00:36:02.000 Potentiality, call it.

00:36:04.000 You might recognize it more deeply.

00:36:05.000 I hope you, I hope the gods, you can.

00:36:07.000 But within you, there might be shame or fear, and some event will happen in your life, and you'll think at first, it's the event.

00:36:14.000 The event is doing this.

00:36:16.000 No, the shame and fear was present within you.

00:36:19.000 The event merely stimulated a present yet dormant shame or fear.

00:36:24.000 So, with the murder of Charlie Kirk, it's the first truly modern assassination, isn't it?

00:36:30.000 That's why we're reaching back to a bygone mere.

00:36:33.000 Media era for contrasts and comparisons, the now off-cited list of the Kennedys and the great heroes of the civil rights movement.

00:36:43.000 But in fact, it is the world that has altered vastly.

00:36:47.000 We can all be everywhere all the time now.

00:36:50.000 There's the potential for HS Tiki Toki or whoever else to make some bit of content that changes the world in an instant.

00:36:59.000 You might do it.

00:37:00.000 You might be the next person.

00:37:01.000 But if your goals and your aims are worldly ones, you will suffer.

00:37:06.000 It's possible too to even use the highest principles like following Christ Jesus for, I don't know, financial gain or for personal power.

00:37:13.000 Nothing is exempted from our fallenness.

00:37:16.000 Nothing.

00:37:18.000 Only collectively can we be saved.

00:37:20.000 Only individually can we enter into the covenant of salvation.

00:37:24.000 Let us work on that paradox together right now.

00:37:27.000 Because the alternative, as you've seen, is waiting for the slow grinding march of global imperialism to take heart and take hold to using successive crisis to legitimize levels of authority that we would... Scream at and never would have dreamed possible, or on the wait and way to that hell, just to squabble and quarrel endlessly amongst ourselves about matters that increasingly seem to me to be about as important as rival football teams mocking one another's colours, codes, and songs.

00:37:56.000 But that's just what I think.

00:37:57.000 Why don't you let me know what you think in the comments and the chat?

00:38:01.000 If you haven't got Rumble Premium yet, get Rumble Premium now.

00:38:03.000 If you're watching us on YouTube, click the link in the description, come on over to Rumble.

00:38:07.000 We still make content on YouTube, but increasingly, I see it just as the online.

00:38:13.000 Uh, conduit for legacy media information. 0.96

00:38:17.000 And what's the point in all that crap, man? 0.96

00:38:19.000 What's the point in it all? 0.98

00:38:20.000 Okay uh hey, have you wondered who might be the nominee in 2028?

00:38:25.000 Some people are saying that oh, Jd Vance is uh, I don't know, in decline or whatever, but not Polymarket.

00:38:31.000 He's green and I know from life in general, and Polymarket specifically, that green is a good thing, i.e traffic lights green good, red bad.

00:38:42.000 But then of course we must consider apples, Because green and red can be good.

00:38:46.000 Now, in the snow white depiction of the apple, I think it was a half half.

00:38:51.000 It was a hybrid.

00:38:52.000 It was part green, part red.

00:38:53.000 Wasn't it?

00:38:54.000 It was a half half.

00:38:57.000 It was a half half apple.

00:38:58.000 Anyway, JD Vance, he's up there at the top.

00:39:00.000 Marco Rubio, Tucker Carlson climbing the ranks.

00:39:03.000 And there over at number 19, me, Russell Brand.

00:39:06.000 I'm not on that list.

00:39:07.000 I just added myself to make it more interesting to me to talk about it.

00:39:11.000 Oh, but you might not care about things like that because you might have realized it doesn't matter who the president is because real power is beyond the recognizable.

00:39:19.000 Offices of public power.

00:39:21.000 You might have worked that out by now.

00:39:22.000 I don't know.

00:39:23.000 Maybe you have.

00:39:24.000 I have.

00:39:24.000 Maybe you haven't.

00:39:25.000 Let's have a look instead at who's going to win the FIFA World Cup.

00:39:28.000 Now, that's football.

00:39:29.000 That's football with your feet, and that's world that includes.

00:39:33.000 Different countries.

00:39:33.000 Let me repeat that.

00:39:35.000 Different countries.

00:39:36.000 Not like the World Series, where it's like one country, oh, we let Canada come sometimes. 0.97

00:39:40.000 Now, here's the true World Cup.

00:39:43.000 A lot of people are saying Spain will win.

00:39:45.000 Well, that's always likely.

00:39:46.000 Or the French. 0.63

00:39:48.000 Or, look at that.

00:39:49.000 Good old number three, England.

00:39:51.000 And then the first non-European nation to be considered, the Argentinians and the Brazilians, always got to consider them.

00:39:55.000 Yeah, that is, do you know what?

00:39:57.000 Norway has always been that for ages.

00:40:00.000 Well, because of Haaland, Norway better not win it.

00:40:02.000 What if this clip?

00:40:03.000 One day goes viral because you know Norway do win the World Cup, but that's not happened for a long time. 0.95

00:40:09.000 World Cups are normally won by what you might call blue chip and what Donald Trump would call proper countries, not like what Donald Trump might call shit old countries.

00:40:18.000 Now, Spain, proper country, you know, Lorca Velasquez, you know, proper country, France, proper country, England, proper country, Argentina, proper country, Brazil, proper country, Portugal. 0.92

00:40:32.000 We're now on the border of proper countries.

00:40:35.000 Portugal is just about a proper country because of colonial work, because of Jose Mourinho, because of Ronaldo, who's not even properly Portuguese but from nearby Madeira.

00:40:46.000 Germany, proper country.

00:40:48.000 They've sometimes taken it too far.

00:40:50.000 Netherlands, proper country, Netherlands, you know, Ruber, Dutch masters, masters alike.

00:40:56.000 Norway, not proper country since Viking days. 1.00

00:40:59.000 Belgium, Tintin, not proper country. 0.99

00:41:03.000 That is the list of proper countries versus not proper countries.

00:41:06.000 If you've got a problem with that, please.

00:41:11.000 I could write this down on a piece of paper for you to refer to at your leisure.

00:41:16.000 If we can just find a way of making sense out of that with the light.

00:41:20.000 There you go.

00:41:21.000 That's that all handled.

00:41:23.000 Okay, so that's Polymarket.

00:41:25.000 You can use that for a variety of things.

00:41:27.000 Now, Global Holy War.

00:41:29.000 It's been a while, isn't it, since we've been in a Global Holy War.

00:41:32.000 Remember the last one?

00:41:33.000 Nazis.

00:41:34.000 What magnificent uniforms.

00:41:36.000 The British.

00:41:36.000 What pluck.

00:41:37.000 The Americans.

00:41:38.000 Nice of you to show up, Yanks.

00:41:39.000 Put the kettle on.

00:41:41.000 But now it's a new Global War.

00:41:43.000 This time with Iran. 0.98

00:41:44.000 Some people say that Iran are doing a little better than expected because during their long protracted wars with Iraq they worked out that global warfare was changing.

00:41:53.000 I saw this video and I found it a helpful explanation.

00:41:57.000 Now I don't know enough about geopolitics and probably neither do you unless you have access to deep state information.

00:42:03.000 But generally I think people are saying this war is not going how it was anticipated.

00:42:08.000 I don't feel like people are super thrilled to have American teenagers and young people shipped over en masse to...

00:42:15.000 Participate in a war that, you know, my personal belief for what it's worth, which is, you know, in the general scheme of things, very little, is that this is not a good war.

00:42:25.000 This is not a good war.

00:42:26.000 It's not a good war.

00:42:27.000 I don't know if there's such a thing as a good war, but this ain't one, so we wouldn't know based on this.

00:42:33.000 Well, you know, how's it going?

00:42:35.000 How's it going?

00:42:36.000 Some people are saying not to plan, not to plan, whether it's the unanticipated stranglehold that the Straits of Hormuz, yes, I'm saying it correctly, has created. 0.67

00:42:47.000 Although America now has access to Venezuelan oil, and that must surely be a help.

00:42:52.000 Or whether it's this kind of sort of general fatigue and dismay that's settling perhaps over America.

00:42:57.000 I know America's a very spirited land and a very spirited people, but surely, you know, I'm surrounded by Americans.

00:43:02.000 There's one over there, there's one over there.

00:43:04.000 I wonder if people that were generally supportive of Trump are wondering, well, you don't need to assess it.

00:43:12.000 You can look at the online space.

00:43:13.000 People that were very enthusiastic about Trump, Candace Owens, Tucker Carlson, are sort of saying, God, this is not what we voted for.

00:43:21.000 Is it?

00:43:21.000 I mean, even with something that could be, if you were to look at ICE raids, you know, from a position of only compassion, I'm sure you would see things that would be pretty difficult.

00:43:33.000 For a loving human being to countenance, but you would at least be able to say, Well, Trump did say that in office he was going to boot out a bunch of people, and that's what the people that voted for Trump anticipated and wanted and agreed to.

00:43:47.000 But with the war in Iran, it's interesting.

00:43:50.000 And here's a video that helps me certainly to understand why it might be going the way that it is.

00:43:56.000 Although we live in this peculiar fragmented, fractured post truth time, and you could probably watch a bunch of content that tells you that the war's going really great.

00:44:02.000 Asymmetric warfare.

00:44:04.000 In simple terms, asymmetric warfare means fighting a stronger enemy by avoiding its strengths and attacking its weaknesses.

00:44:10.000 Rather than competing with American aircraft carriers and stealth bombers, Iran focused on cheaper, flexible weapons and tactics that are harder to stop.

00:44:17.000 One major part of this strategy is its investment in missiles and drones.

00:44:20.000 Instead of spending enormous amounts of money on modern fighter jets, Iran developed a large arsenal of ballistic missiles and long-range drones capable of striking targets across the region.

00:44:30.000 And in recent years, these drones have become one of Iran's most important strategic tools. 0.98

00:44:34.000 These low-cost attack drones can travel long distances and overwhelm air defense systems when launched in large numbers.

00:44:40.000 Recently Iran used waves of these drones to target military bases and infrastructure across several Gulf countries including the UAE, Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait and Saudi Arabia.

00:45:00.000 The cost of engaging these drones far exceeded the cost of the drone itself.

00:45:03.000 So this way Iran is mathematically bleeding these rich Gulf countries. 0.90

00:45:07.000 Now another key pillar of Like that Dave mathematical bleeding You like things I had in you numbers numbers Dave talks numbers He was excited.

00:45:16.000 Oh, that's good.

00:45:17.000 It's mathematically bleeding win-win like the thing is is that one time me and Dave we was traveling through an airport and like Dave did something with numbers like worked out when something could happen historically based on very quick I said oh man.

00:45:31.000 I don't even think that language.

00:45:32.000 I have to go that's currently that's two trumps ago divided by Obama Yeah, like before Carter.

00:45:38.000 I had to work out in sort of weird images Yeah, you thought in presidential terms.

00:45:43.000 Yeah, like World Cups, four-year blocks, that's all I can handle.

00:45:47.000 Vague, vague descriptions.

00:45:49.000 However, though, I've had good cause to study the past pretty forensically, and I've had to get pretty good at it, as a matter of fact.

00:45:56.000 Let's carry on with this video.

00:45:58.000 It's very funny because that's like sponsoring Hezbollah and Hamas, and that's the detraction. 0.65

00:46:12.000 would agree with that.

00:46:12.000 They'd say Iran fund like terrorists, you know, wouldn't they?

00:46:16.000 That's what that's the positive spin on that.

00:46:18.000 We've got allies, armed allies in other countries.

00:46:21.000 But then like them kind of terms like terrorists, they don't stand to a lot of scrutiny, do they?

00:46:25.000 When you think about it.

00:46:26.000 Several countries, including Lebanon, Iraq, Syria and Yemen.

00:46:30.000 These groups act as Iran proxies and gives it influence far beyond its own borders. 0.64

00:46:34.000 And as a result of this strategy, in this ongoing Iran-Israel war, the pressure is appearing in many places at once.

00:46:40.000 Instead of one battlefield, there are several.

00:46:42.000 Similarly, geography also plays a crucial role in Iran's strategy.

00:46:45.000 Iran sits next to one of the most important waterways in the world, the Strait of Hormuz.

00:46:49.000 This narrow passage connects the Persian Gulf to the global ocean, and around 20% of the world's oil passes through it every day.

00:46:56.000 Iran has recently blocked this strait, and energy markets are already beginning to witness the impact of blocking this choke point.

00:47:01.000 Then Iran's naval strategy also reflects its asymmetric approach.

00:47:05.000 Instead of building a navy similar to the United States, Iran relies on smaller, faster boats, equipped with missiles and torpedoes.

00:47:12.000 In large numbers, these boats can move quickly and create difficult situations.

00:47:17.000 Little bit of coke, white jacket, rolled up to the elbow.

00:47:24.000 Bam, bam! 0.94

00:47:25.000 Looks like a cooler way to do warfare, I say.

00:47:27.000 Create difficult situations for larger ships operating in the confined waters of the Persian Gulf.

00:47:32.000 Finally, Iran's military structure is designed to keep functioning, even under heavy pressure.

00:47:36.000 The Islamic Revolution... 0.98

00:47:37.000 This guy likes Iran I feel like now like you know because he had George Clooney playing that Iranian general so like now it's I'm feeling I can see the biases I think this guy's just seconds away from going I fucking love Iran! 0.59

00:47:49.000 The Mick Revolutionary Guard Corps and its affiliated forces are all them soldiers are all handsome looking aren't they?

00:47:55.000 Affiliated forces are organized in ways that allow different units to operate independently and they're using a font out of train spotting independently if needed.

00:48:03.000 This decentralization means that even if some leaders or bases are targeted the broader network can continue functioning and this is exactly what is happening currently.

00:48:11.000 They're just so great.

00:48:12.000 Have you seen their hair and their moustaches?

00:48:14.000 They're fantastic guys.

00:48:15.000 I mean, you can't be partisan about any of it.

00:48:17.000 Again, what I do like is the principle of decentralization, that we're at a point where technology would facilitate maximal control over your own personal sovereignty, community and familial sovereignty.

00:48:27.000 Why spend all your time arguing about what amounts to Ewoks or cyborgs or some other sci-fi character's way of life millions of miles away, when in fact there's people 100 yards away from you starving to death, probably people in your own family addicted to meth?

00:48:41.000 Let's focus... and what we can actually do and what we can actually understand instead of trying to fight on this sort of global, ethereal plane the whole time.

00:48:49.000 I mean, even with the most serious issues that are happening right now, massacres, genocides, executions, what do you think you're going to do about it if you don't have control of your own, well, firstly consciousness, but then community, family, life?

00:49:02.000 It's a serious question.

00:49:03.000 It's happening currently.

00:49:04.000 The termination of Ayatollah Khamenei and other top leaders.

00:49:08.000 Try to vary the names of your Ayatollahs.

00:49:11.000 That I will say.

00:49:12.000 All their names say a bit like that.

00:49:14.000 I want Ayatollah Khamenei.

00:49:15.000 Ralph and Ayatollah Randy and Ayatollah Steve.

00:49:19.000 They're always called commonee, commoneye, commoneye.

00:49:21.000 They've all been called that my whole life. 0.98

00:49:23.000 And I think that's why I don't care when they kill them.

00:49:25.000 Ayatollah Kamenei and other top leadership had little impact.

00:49:29.000 We had to replace him with Ayatollah Kamino.

00:49:32.000 I mean, it's killed us.

00:49:33.000 Also in North Korea, that ain't it?

00:49:35.000 They lose King Yong-un.

00:49:36.000 Oh, Kim Yong-il waiting in the wings.

00:49:38.000 How can you get a hard-on for all these Kim Yongs? 1.00

00:49:40.000 Especially as they all look peculiar little things anyway, and they're funny little dumpling people.

00:49:45.000 Like, I just chew through them all.

00:49:48.000 Oh no, terrible news.

00:49:49.000 Atayola Komunai is dead.

00:49:52.000 Who's in now?

00:49:53.000 It's also someone whose name's more or less that. 0.99

00:49:55.000 Well, you know, who gives a fuck? 0.99

00:49:57.000 Had little impact on Iran's retaliation activities. 0.99

00:49:59.000 When all these elements come together, a clear strategy appears.

00:50:02.000 Iran's goal is not to defeat the United States in a traditional military sense.

00:50:06.000 Instead, its strategy focuses on making this war so complex, so costly, and so unpredictable that continuing the conflict becomes politically and economically difficult.

00:50:15.000 Terrific people, the Romans. 1.00

00:50:17.000 Terrific people.

00:50:18.000 It's like that person hung upside down in Life of Brian. 1.00

00:50:21.000 You lucky, lucky bastard. 1.00

00:50:24.000 Oh, the Iranians. 1.00

00:50:25.000 Oh, what wouldn't I give to be fighting on the Strait of Hormuz?

00:50:29.000 My dear Evan is to be allowed to engage in nautical guerrilla warfare with a bloody great big aircraft carrier. 0.99

00:50:36.000 Shut up! 1.00

00:50:38.000 It's proper John Cleese turf, that. 1.00

00:50:40.000 Proper, proper Monty Python territory.

00:50:43.000 So, there you go.

00:50:44.000 It turns out that the Iran war is not going as predicted or preempted.

00:50:49.000 Your president there, Trump, is calling out my little old country, UK, for. 0.96

00:50:54.000 In these words, being a bit too gay, is that the right word? 1.00

00:50:58.000 Being too gay and not fighting in wars. 0.99

00:51:00.000 But I mean, come on, America, we've done those first two serious wars. 0.96

00:51:03.000 We did the hard part without you.

00:51:05.000 Hegzef has called for allies, that's us, the UK, to step up.

00:51:10.000 Step on up over the Strait of Hormuz.

00:51:12.000 Step it up.

00:51:13.000 I think the president was clear this morning in his truth that there are countries around the world.

00:51:19.000 I see Hegzef. 0.99

00:51:20.000 I think there's a man who puts aftershave on his scrotum. 0.99

00:51:23.000 That's it. 1.00

00:51:24.000 That's all I think. 0.99

00:51:25.000 Aftershave on the scrotum. 0.98

00:51:27.000 So that should be enough to cover that story. 0.99

00:51:32.000 If Iran is wise, it will cut a deal. 0.98

00:51:33.000 Now, I bet he's tasty in a fight.

00:51:35.000 I would not want to fight Pete Hexev one-on-one.

00:51:37.000 I think he's a good fighter, so this was not an invitation to a fight.

00:51:40.000 I'm just saying, I can imagine him sort of going like, okay, Hexev, big day today, and then, like playing the downstairs bongos.

00:51:53.000 Playing his own balls like bongos, you know? 0.53

00:51:57.000 Okay, beating out the war drum. 0.96

00:51:58.000 Hey, and then hey, and then hey, and then we.

00:52:01.000 Yeah, we're praying this morning. 0.99

00:52:03.000 We're praying the prayer of let's kill everybody prayer. 1.00

00:52:06.000 They're from the book of kill the fuck out of everyone. 1.00

00:52:10.000 He's eating lobsters while he's praying. 1.00

00:52:14.000 Crunching his way through the shellfish.

00:52:16.000 Splashing Aramis on his recently shaved nut bag.

00:52:20.000 Look, I'm not attacking him.

00:52:21.000 He don't need my support.

00:52:24.000 He's doing a great job.

00:52:26.000 He's doing a great job.

00:52:28.000 Let's see what the Pope's got to say, though.

00:52:30.000 Oh, Pope, you've got an American Pope now. 0.77

00:52:32.000 That's good.

00:52:34.000 God rejects the prayers of those who wage war.

00:52:39.000 The message of Pope Leo's Palm Sunday Mass was unusually forceful.

00:52:46.000 Brothers and sisters, this is our God, Jesus, King of Peace, who rejects war, who no one can use to justify war.

00:53:00.000 He does not listen to the prayers of those who wage war.

00:53:04.000 But rejects them, saying, Even though you make many prayers, I will not listen.

00:53:10.000 Your hands are full of blood.

00:53:16.000 Although the Lord, he makes some pretty interesting moves back in, I don't know, Nebuchadnezzar or whatever.

00:53:23.000 You just don't know what the Lord will do.

00:53:25.000 His ways are not our ways, our thoughts are not his thoughts.

00:53:28.000 I would say, let's just try to operate on the principles that we can understand simple principles, compassion, love.

00:53:36.000 Infinite creativity.

00:53:37.000 These are definitely attributes of the Lord.

00:53:39.000 My country, the UK though, baffled and confused, extra British troops and more UK air defence systems will be deployed to the Middle East for defensive action.

00:53:47.000 I love that.

00:53:47.000 That's what my country does.

00:53:48.000 It's like, these are only for defensive actions though.

00:53:51.000 That's Kissed Armour I'm doing an impersonation of.

00:53:54.000 They won't, if there's an extra, and that actually, when you hear people that have been in like hot military situations, they are actually trying to use this kind of bureaucratic mad managerialism in wars.

00:54:06.000 Like, listen, you're only to back up Iraq. 0.94

00:54:09.000 Against ISIS.

00:54:10.000 If there's a fight, Navy SEALs, just stand back and shout encouragement. 0.99

00:54:15.000 But imagine if you're a Navy SEAL, you're like, I'm going to fuck these guys up. 0.99

00:54:18.000 I've been training for this. 0.99

00:54:19.000 Like, it's not easy. 0.96

00:54:21.000 And that's what they'll be doing with the paras and all these beautiful service people out of your country and out of mine getting sent off to some bullshit war. 1.00

00:54:30.000 And they're all bullshit, actually. 1.00

00:54:31.000 They're all bullshit because they wouldn't do them if they had to fight in them. 0.99

00:54:36.000 In most cases, I know HexF's done active service, so you've got to give him a little bit of grace for that, surely. 0.98

00:54:42.000 Cologne.

00:54:43.000 Drenched nutbag aside, look.

00:54:45.000 But when it comes to these actual, the actual business of war, these uh, peculiar limited warfare edicts are ways of fooling ourselves.

00:54:54.000 I suppose Uk personnel involved in the defense of the Gulf and Cyprus to around a thousand people who could die as a result of this madness on a trip to the Gulf Nations defense secretary John Healy said extra air defense teams and systems would be deployed to Saudi Arabia, Bahrain and Kuwait, while the use of typhoon jets in Qatar will be extended.

00:55:13.000 My message, i've got a message.

00:55:16.000 Everyone thinks they're really important, don't they?

00:55:17.000 Look, here's what he is.

00:55:18.000 My message to Golf partners is Britain's best will help you defend your skies, he said.

00:55:25.000 Okay.

00:55:26.000 The UK's position on the war in the Middle East is to participate in defensive action, but US President Donald Trump has repeatedly criticised the stance.

00:55:31.000 Prime Minister Keir Starmer said on Monday, the UK's not going to get dragged into this war, but will continue to defend its interests in the region.

00:55:40.000 That's what's happening there.

00:55:42.000 Imagine if you use the technology that's being used right now on Polymarket to aggregate data or any one of a number of apps that you hold in the palm of your hand, like some novel murder device in a mad public execution.

00:55:54.000 If you were to use the technology on your phone to run your community, if the principle was massively Maximal decentralization.

00:56:02.000 What wither then, John Healy?

00:56:04.000 Wither then your war in Iran?

00:56:07.000 Why not?

00:56:08.000 Please explain to me, have a situation where of absolute referenda, like in Switzerland.

00:56:14.000 In Switzerland, God love them with their cuckoo clocks and their Toblerones and their Nazi gold. 0.91

00:56:19.000 They have four major referenda a year where they say to the population of Switzerland, these are some of the policies.

00:56:24.000 What do you guys want to do?

00:56:25.000 Now, you might as well say, well, Switzerland is not a player on the world stage.

00:56:28.000 Well, is that what you want?

00:56:30.000 Like, player on the world stage?

00:56:31.000 Like, participating in these terrible, terrible wars, facilitating genocides, living in a mad and pointless, senseless, ongoing global experiment, is that what you want? 0.99

00:56:43.000 Is your patriotism so rich, so bound in your blood, that you would let it drown out the voice of common sense in your head that tells you this is a bullshit game? 1.00

00:56:54.000 It's a bullshit game. 1.00

00:56:56.000 You can be free. 1.00

00:56:57.000 You can be free.

00:56:59.000 You are already free.

00:57:00.000 You don't have to participate in this.

00:57:02.000 We could have, using polymarket-style technology, and they'll be pleased with this because I'm advertising them to the absolute hilt here, is that very technology could be used to say, do you want a war with Iran? 0.81

00:57:12.000 Yes or no?

00:57:13.000 No.

00:57:14.000 Right, we're not having a war with Iran then.

00:57:16.000 We're not going to stand around pretending we're cleverer than you for some weird reason.

00:57:20.000 I'm cleverer than you.

00:57:21.000 Go on, talk me through that.

00:57:23.000 Whoa, look at me.

00:57:24.000 I went to this school or that school. 0.97

00:57:26.000 It'll come down to this or that or charisma or some bullshit when the fact is that most of you will not benefit from there being a war with Iran. 0.90

00:57:33.000 Most of you have not benefited from the Russia-Ukraine conflict. 0.91

00:57:37.000 Most of you did not benefit from Vietnam or Korea or Afghanistan, but let me tell you who did benefit. 0.98

00:57:43.000 Guess what?

00:57:44.000 Hang on to your hat, kids.

00:57:45.000 It's the very people who were telling you that you should have all of those wars.

00:57:49.000 Now, I'm sure that's some sort of wacky, crazy old coincidence.

00:57:54.000 I'm sure that's a conspiracy theory.

00:57:56.000 I'm sure the fact that it's been long iterated in various policies from Kissinger through Cheney, all the way through the great, and I use great inverted commas, statesmen of your great, there are no inverted commas, nation.

00:58:08.000 You've been told that war is good and war is good for the people, that it's good for, in the same way that all crisis is good for the people, that and the institutions at the upper echelons of society.

00:58:17.000 Therefore, we must decouple ourselves from their destiny, and the only way to do that is through becoming empowered through God, because otherwise you won't have this personal strength to die for what you believe in.

00:58:27.000 But that's just why I think let me know what you think in the comments and the chat.

00:58:31.000 Certainly the United Kingdom aren't gonna get it up enough to, You know, oppose evil or oppose death Or destruction.

00:58:39.000 Let me know what you think, though, in the comments and chat.

00:58:41.000 And well done.

00:58:41.000 You're doing good work in those comments.

00:58:42.000 Jake was telling me just now there's a lot going on because someone's doing a lot of conspiracy type stuff, but the community's really managing itself well.

00:58:51.000 Is that right, Jake?

00:58:52.000 Yep, we've got a battle going on right now.

00:58:55.000 There's a battle.

00:58:55.000 There's a battle in the comments.

00:58:57.000 There's a stray of hummus in the comments.

00:58:59.000 Someone named Ashley.

00:59:00.000 Hello, darling.

00:59:02.000 Ashley Taylor.

00:59:03.000 Hello, Ashley Taylor. 0.94

00:59:05.000 She thinks you're a pedo. 1.00

00:59:07.000 Well, actually, that's simply not true, Ashley. 0.73

00:59:09.000 And there's no moral reason behind that.

00:59:12.000 It's simply.

00:59:13.000 Not my cup of tea.

00:59:15.000 Simply not my cup of tea.

00:59:17.000 She thinks that you knew Epstein as well.

00:59:19.000 Oh, no, I never knew Epstein.

00:59:21.000 It's a good job, though, because if Epstein had ever said to old Russ, hey, Want to go, I mean, let alone a free island full of what I'm sure he sold to the participants as willing sexual partners, although it seems that some of those sexual partners were actual, literal children. 0.70

00:59:37.000 And a lot of the women there were raped. 0.99

00:59:40.000 You know, I'm sure when they were all going there, you know the list is publicly available.

00:59:45.000 Some of the most powerful people in the world who are just carrying on with their lives right now.

00:59:49.000 I'm sure that at least a significant number of them weren't told, this is Nonceville, Ireland, Ireland of the pedos.

00:59:55.000 I'm sure they were told it's just a lovely holiday with a nice weird cube on it.

00:59:59.000 That weird cubular ceramic temple thing.

01:00:02.000 That in itself seems well worth a visit.

01:00:04.000 But oh, Jeffrey, is he dead?

01:00:06.000 Is he alive?

01:00:06.000 Is he that guy in Santa Monica?

01:00:08.000 No one knows.

01:00:09.000 The footage was not found.

01:00:11.000 So hey, well done in the comments.

01:00:13.000 Keep your conversations going.

01:00:14.000 And yeah, feel free to.

01:00:16.000 Man, if I was a person that was killed by accusation, you'd be looking at an empty chair right now, let me tell you, darling.

01:00:22.000 All right, we've got some more content to create, but it's only available to those of you that want to join us over.

01:00:28.000 On Rumble as we play Rumble Premium, I mean.

01:00:31.000 So show your support additionally by subscribing to Rumble Premium.

01:00:35.000 Get additional content from me and other content creators and continue this chat because we're going to be talking about a lot of crazy stuff in my country, the United Kingdom.

01:00:42.000 But to take us out, guys, here's Trump talking about Iran's oil on ABC in 1987.

01:00:48.000 I've not watched this yet, but it seems like evidence of extraordinary perspicacity from Nostra Trumpus.

01:00:54.000 Yeah, that's the pun I'm making.

01:00:57.000 Because I'm running for the presidency.

01:00:58.000 I'm here because.

01:01:00.000 I'm personally tired of seeing this great country of ours being ripped off.

01:01:04.000 But as far as Trump is concerned, our allies are only part of the problem.

01:01:08.000 The real culprit is Iran. 1.00

01:01:10.000 Why couldn't we go in and take over some of their oil, which is along the sea?

01:01:15.000 How would you do that?

01:01:16.000 Would you send in the Marines?

01:01:17.000 Would you take a chance?

01:01:18.000 I mean, he's adorable, isn't he, in a way, Trump.

01:01:21.000 And I did hear from someone who sort of like knew people around him.
