00:06:05.700Now, obviously, that's Trump just making a joke, but it's not funny when you see that the Israel lobby is 100% trying to take over our foreign and domestic policy.
00:06:19.580and everybody knows that's been a longtime listener or even been around 30 something years
00:06:25.980people have known that i've gotten big criticism from people that only care about israel and
00:06:31.200obsess on israel and hate israel for not making israel my focal point and saying yeah israel does
00:06:36.540a lot of corrupt bad stuff and that's what these all these big powerful sophisticated governments
00:06:40.000do and it's it's systemic throughout governments worldwide and it's a bad thing and i just call
00:06:45.840balls and strikes. And I've seen China and the internal left and the globalists and the big
00:06:51.920central banks as the main enemy because they put the communist Chinese in power. That's been the0.96
00:06:56.620main globalist system. And Trump was opposing that at many levels in his first administration
00:07:01.060and when he was out of office with real actions. This is a new Trump. And since he's been in the
00:07:08.020last year and a half. By increment, he has become a thoroughbred war hawk, greater Israel,0.79
00:07:17.780super Zionist, and has kicked all or almost all of his old real MAGA people out0.53
00:07:24.700and brought in the most hardcore Likudnik Mossad operatives. And I mean, that's just a fact. So0.82
00:07:36.180I'm going to report that. Now, why do you think I've had the ADL and the big law firms that
00:07:43.560are allied with all of that? Why do you think they've been after me so hard?
00:07:52.440Because I call balls and strikes and I legitimately would criticize Israel and also
00:07:58.300other globalist systems, other legs of the stool, from a point of facts and a point of reality0.92
00:08:07.240for everyone, for a big tent, so people could decide to have policies that are pro-human and
00:08:13.100pro-national and capitalist and transparent and free. I don't like tribalism. I don't like
00:08:19.340where we've gone. But you have to understand that Israel and the people running it won a
00:08:26.160clash of civilizations and they want to make the new world order Jewish and they want to make0.85
00:08:36.940statements about greater Israel and how we're all goyim and how we only exist to serve them0.71
00:08:42.660to create mass anti-Semitism and a clash of civilizations that out of the crises that comes0.51
00:08:51.520out of that, they believe they will rally all the Jews and their supporters and all that wealth0.80
00:08:56.880under one banner of survival. And really, that banner of survival is the flag of conquest and0.94
00:09:06.180taking over. And Yahoo said it last week. It's all over the Israeli papers the last year.
00:09:11.380We're the superpower. We run America. Just insanely arrogant statements on TV
00:09:16.360about we'll kill all the Palestinians. They're not humans.1.00
00:09:21.520You have the World Jewish Congress with all these billionaires getting up saying, I'm not Jewish, I wish I was, I'm just a goy, I'm here to serve you, and all these statements that I see all over Acts of prominent influencers saying things like, Tom Massey was a bad goy, so he had to be removed.0.98
00:09:40.460And these are Jews saying this and Gentiles.
00:33:03.460Now I notice the neocons and the kind of QTAR 2.0 people go, oh, yeah, you're an Iranian agent, a Qatar agent, you're a Russian agent, and all this ridiculous crap.0.94
00:33:18.760And all I am is a loyal American trying to follow tried and true systems of a free and open country.0.87
00:33:55.460And Trump for the, I quit counting like 31 or 32 a few weeks ago,
00:34:00.580And that was just what I caught of Trump saying, we've won the war, we've had regime change, it's over, it's about to be over, the strait will be open, I don't care if the strait's open, open the GD strait, the effing strait.
00:34:12.560never really saying what the main goal is
00:45:44.440What have you said to Prime Minister Netanyahu about Iran and how long to hold off on strike?0.85
00:45:49.400He's fine. He'll do whatever I want him to do. He's a very good man. He'll do whatever I want him to do. And he's a great guy. To me, he's a great guy. Don't forget, he was a wartime prime minister. And he's not treated right in Israel, in my opinion. I'm right now at 99 percent in Israel. I could run for prime minister. So maybe after I do this, I'll go to Israel, run for prime minister.0.53
00:46:15.160I had a poll this morning. I'm 99 percent. So that's good. But now he's a wartime prime minister.
00:46:23.060I just don't think they treat him well. I think we have a president over there that treats him
00:46:29.140very poorly. And you're on the same page with him on Iran. Yeah. And this is peanuts. And I
00:46:36.040appreciate everybody putting up with it for a little while. It won't be much longer. But you
00:46:41.400to have and frankly there is so much oil out there one of the things that is happening is
00:46:47.000these big ships are coming up to texas louisiana and alaska and they're loading up but i don't even
00:46:53.180think about that what i think about is you can't let iran have a nuclear weapon and they won't have
00:46:57.680a nuclear weapon and they fully understand it term we finished the term out despite covet and
00:47:04.560all the other things we had a great we had really an amazing period of time and we finished at the
00:47:10.320highest point in the history of the stock market and now we're blowing it away we're blowing
00:47:16.460everything away and we're going to end that war very quickly they want to make a deal so badly
00:47:21.900they're tired of this should have happened for 47 years somebody should have done something about it
00:47:27.820and it's going to happen and it's going to happen fast and you're going to see oil prices plummet
00:47:33.620they're going to come down there's so much oil out there they're going to come plummeting down
00:47:37.400But even with that, the stock market's at an all-time high.
00:47:42.140Jobless claims recently hit the lowest level.
00:47:45.200And since 1969, the best numbers since 1969, and more Americans are working today than at any time in the history of our country.
00:56:23.320all right we're into hour number two man do i have an important transmission the next three
00:56:38.580hours left for you here we have just we have just begun but i'm going to do something right now
00:56:45.760because some stations don't carry this first five i want everybody to hear this thomas massey
00:56:49.380election stuff and what's really going on there and the mounting evidence of fraud and we'll get
00:56:54.180into some of that but i just want to remind listeners that i am so busy with all the stuff
00:57:00.840that's going on i don't even have time to even cut ads to promote the products for the network i need
00:57:05.220to get up off my ass and get that done because we need funds to run this operation plus the products
00:57:09.200are incredible so i'm going to cut an ad right now live on air that will then run on the network0.97
00:57:14.400So just be ready for that, and then we will come back with all the massive news straight ahead.
00:57:21.960Now, almost all the products you see at thealexjonesstore.com that funds this operation and keep us on air
00:57:27.580are products that I use, that I like, that are ideas that I came up with.
00:57:33.040The knives we have, the supplements, the coins of these new Faraday cage, RFID, wallet shields,
00:57:42.880That's all stuff that I went out and I researched that I thought was cool that I then got Bigly to go out and get.
00:57:49.340And it took them six months, which was actually pretty fast, to get the very wallet that I bought at a nice department store for like $75, $80 six, seven months ago and really liked because it holds 20 cards, 20 bills.
00:58:04.820It is high-quality leather and very lightweight, very strong aluminum.
01:12:44.460I've got a bunch of it, but, I mean, the fix was in here, okay?
01:12:50.000You really believe there was a 357% turnout increase?
01:12:54.020And they've done the math. It's like one out of 200. Do you really think all these magic mail-in ballots just showed up? And then, you know, when he's basically tied with Massey and suddenly all these mail-ins come in, just like they did against Trump in 2000, and then push the Israeli candidate over the top.
01:13:14.400And, yeah, Trump was pissed at Massey for a whole bunch of other stuff, okay?
01:13:20.480The Epstein list and voting down spending bills, yeah.
01:13:27.080But it's the Israel lobby with the money and AIPAC that said,
01:13:34.400we're going to go primary all these people that don't support war
01:13:37.340and don't support Netanyahu, and I've got AIPAC's printouts right here bragging.
01:16:54.780If you have the best of intentions and try to really be altruistic and build a good world, it's hard.
01:17:01.240But when you have this attitudes of the establishment and there's a bunch of factions and they're all buying countryside things in the middle of nowhere and bunkers and weapons, that's not how you protect yourself.
01:17:12.480You protect yourself as a true egalitarian aristocratic group that actually empowers
01:17:19.560humanity and lifts it all up, rising tide raises all ships so that you have a stable world.
01:43:31.340Like, we show up, we do everything we're supposed to do, and then these foreign lobbyists and these super PACs just funnel their infinite wallets into these campaigns that render our votes useless, and it's just infuriating.
01:43:50.420No, I hear you, but the great awakening is here, and the problem is Trump, instead of fighting what was done to him, he's now adopting what was done to him.
01:43:57.100He hires the Democrat head lawyer and now makes deals and works with the Democrat law firms that attacked him to attack me.
01:44:25.060I mean, people's actions speak more than their words, and he could say whatever he wanted to say, but everything that he's doing is contrary to everything that he ran on, and it comes back to the traitor is the plague thing, and that's effectively the situation we're confronted with, I guess.
01:44:45.320Yeah, guys, pull up the Roman quote, Cicero, Roman quote, statesman and philosopher, Cicero, the traitor is the plague.
01:44:54.240Thanks for the call. Great points. I'll read that as soon as you have it. Put it on screen. Thank you. Great job.
01:44:58.040All right. Mark in Pennsylvania is Jewish. I appreciate you calling, Mark.
01:45:01.360Give us your take on what you think is going on, all the things that are unfolding.
01:45:05.780I mean, I know if I was a Jewish person, there's a lot of diverse Jewish ideas and things out there.1.00
01:45:09.740I would be pretty freaked out right now, the direction the world's going on so many fronts.1.00
01:45:15.500What's your take, and what's your critique of what I've been saying?
01:45:18.600I appreciate you taking my call there, Mr. Jones.
01:45:21.620And I want to tell you that I'm a VIP platinum member also.
01:48:01.740all right i appreciate your call that's not a real jewish person calling in let's just i'm
01:48:07.420trying to have a serious discussion here0.62
01:48:08.620we're in day 86 whatever the war it's destroying the economy this is a disaster folks this is what0.95
01:48:20.220marcus cicero said tulia cicero a nation can survive its fools i'm gonna do the right voice0.90
01:48:30.120A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious, but it cannot survive treason from within.0.94
01:48:39.000An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banners openly.0.92
01:48:46.040But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers and rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself.
01:48:56.560the traitor is the plague yeah that's not the full full speech but that's good enough
01:49:04.580so there we are my little green friend let's go to dan in kentucky on the election welcome dan
01:49:14.420hey alex thank you for taking the call a great look on the new show thank you sir
01:49:20.800and uh the mcconnell machine has been rigging elections in kentucky for the last 50 years
01:49:25.740And I have strong conviction that the McConnell machine, the Pentagon, and Israel rigged it, this time against Thomas Massey.
01:49:34.720I mean, how can some hillbilly, Ed Gollerian, nobody can even pronounce his last name, nobody's heard of him.
01:49:42.240How can he get 57,000 votes in this 2026 primary when the total ballots cast in the entire 2024 primary between Massey and his opponents in the same district was only 52,000 votes?
01:49:55.740There's obviously a lot of similarities between the abnormal election numbers in this race and what we saw in the 2020 Biden election.
01:50:04.460And then we have the magic 10,000 plus, the exact winning margin that magically arrived right on John.
01:50:13.700It's just unbelievable. It's incredible.
01:50:15.500You know, my prediction, Alex, is that Gallagherine is going to become a major spotlight in Kentucky politics, similar to how McConnell was the spotlight for corruption with his connection to the Chinese and Kentucky politics, and really demonstrate the fraud and the rigged voting machines and the mail-in ballot process, not just in general elections, but in local elections as well.
01:50:39.700What are folks in Kentucky saying in general?0.94
01:50:42.360Are they spilling a rat like you are?0.90
01:50:45.500You know, I mean, the 10, 15 people I've talked to, you know, they've all voted for Massey.0.98
01:50:51.220They've never even heard of the Gallerian guy.
01:51:51.360and our sponsor, the OwlShowsWare.com,
01:51:53.360is financing the expansion, not just the current shows,
01:51:56.400but bringing more shows on, more reporters,
01:51:58.720and really taking it to the globalists,
01:52:00.080and finishing up the big studios that are even better than the InfoWare studios.
01:52:03.600So I want to thank you all for your financial support at the OwlShowsWare.com.
01:52:07.040But most importantly, let your whole email list, your text message list, everybody know, post on X, post on Rumble, post on Instagram, everywhere.
01:52:14.860Hey, they say Alex Jones is off the air.
01:52:16.720All these headlines, finally he's off the air.
01:52:18.640People are believing that and not even going out and looking where they can find us at Rumble, at the Alex Jones Show, on X, at AJ and Live, on Alex Jones, on the same radio stations, the same satellites.
01:52:29.680I know you as hardcore listeners know this, but so many other people don't.
01:52:33.940The bad guys run these hoaxes to confuse people.
01:52:37.040A year and a half ago when The Onion got caught in the federal court lying and said they owned us.
01:55:41.620We talk about the mad scientists, the geoengineering, the New World Order, the poison shots, the AI, the robot takeover, the aliens, all of it.0.99
01:55:49.340But no, everything's the Middle East.0.96
01:55:52.120Everything is on and on and on and on and on.
01:55:54.840Trump, I'm going to probably be the Israeli prime minister now.
01:55:57.320And Israel, yeah, we came in and won those elections, but don't say we did or hear anti-Semitic.
01:56:29.940I do not support anything that's going on with this as far as our involvement with Israel.0.58
01:56:38.780Israel needs to fight their own battles, their own wars.0.81
01:56:42.540We should have nothing to do with this.0.85
01:56:44.460We should just be taking care of our own country.
01:56:47.780I think, you know, Trump was doing a good job for the first year, and then he turned around 180 degrees, and we've got a total mess out there.
01:56:59.080Yeah, he seems to think the straightforward moves and the fertilizer and the fuel crisis is not a big deal.
01:57:35.740And I can tell you that everybody that I know personally that was a supporter has backed away from this.
01:57:43.120We think he's lost his mind at this point.
01:57:46.940But the point, as I'm saying, is, you know, living in this society, you know, just because I happen to be born Jewish doesn't mean I support any of this.
02:05:54.860But then they were given the knowledge of evil, which are these viruses, these systems that once you get into them, they create their own systems.
02:10:16.160And so I guess with me, I'm, like, carrying all this energy and this weight of all this.
02:10:20.160I said, I guess, you know, you're walking along, and the sun's coming up, and it's just getting light, and here comes Alex Jones marching towards you, I guess it just, but it just happened over and over and over and over, and I was like, let me just really walk really nice, maybe I'm walking aggressively, let me just walk really wimply, I need to slow down, and I need to be like, oh, let me, I said, well, there's another one 100 yards up before they see me, let me just kind of walk slow, get my phone out, by the end, I was doing like a test, I'm like, and I'm sitting on my phone, walking like, you know, a mile an hour, and I look over,
02:10:50.000and the people are looking at me in horror.
02:26:54.880Today we are announcing an indictment charging Ro Castro and several others with conspiracy to kill U.S. nationals, famously blowing up an airplane with terrorism, says the Attorney General Todd Blanche in Miami.
02:27:08.780My message today is clear, the United States and the president does not and will not forget
02:29:50.580Carlos Costa, Armando Alejandra Jr., Mario de la Peña, and Pablo Morales.
02:30:00.340They were unarmed civilians and were flying humanitarian missions for the rescue and protection of people fleeing oppression across the Florida Straits.
02:30:14.560As alleged in the indictment, Raul Castro and five co-defendants participated in a conspiracy that ended with Cuban military aircraft firing missiles at those civilian planes and killing four Americans.
02:30:27.400Those are the allegations returned by a federal grand jury.
02:32:21.240And the lady in charge of the voting booths or whatever, she announces, I thought it was kind of weird that she kind of just said it out loud, but she looks over at the two ladies that were handing out the ballots to everybody, and she goes, make sure you're handing out the right ballots, because so-and-so just called and apparently they've been handing out the wrong ballots all afternoon.
02:32:51.240So I just wanted to throw that out there.
02:32:53.640If there was any doubt that Massey's election was stolen, there's some proof right there, probably.
02:33:00.220Well, let's flesh that out because that was done in Houston, Tucson, and Phoenix and a bunch of other key cities in 2020 and after where they would give out the wrong ballots or the ballots weren't long enough to be printed.
02:33:12.140That is a classic tactic that's used where they're giving people ballots that aren't even the right ballots.
02:39:53.100Just establishing credibility real quick, I was the author on the legal complaint against Adam Schiff with Christine Bish, so I'm pretty well tied in.
02:42:06.780Well, I mean, I'd say mathematically it's improbable would be an understatement, right?
02:42:11.420I mean, you can't say that this is something that you expect,
02:42:16.820especially in a primary that, you know, doesn't necessarily even have the executive branch up on offer.
02:42:22.500So, I mean, it should tell you everything.
02:42:24.960it tells me everything i you know do you think trump's been blackmailed by israel or he just
02:42:32.360joined with the israel lobby because he thinks it's the most powerful group to support because
02:42:37.120he's burning down his support we're going to lose the midterms there's no doubt about that
02:42:41.640why is trump doing that i mean that's a any answer i give would be would be conjecture right
02:42:49.040But, I mean, I will say this, it seems probable, certainly more than possible, that there is something held underneath his feet that are keeping it to the flame, right?
02:43:08.980And so whether that's blackmail, whether that's some sort of issue, for me, my opinion,
02:43:18.480which is rooted in absolutely nothing but faceless opinion,
02:43:23.660he saw what happened the first go-round when they impeached him twice.
02:43:27.880The difference is the numbers are there, and he's gone a lot farther.
02:43:32.120He's kind of paddled a lot farther into the deep end this time,
02:43:34.660So perhaps we've passed the point of no return where the guy's quite literally looking at potential legal ramifications against him and his family for the trades, just for opposing these states at all, right?
02:51:27.420And so that's why spies, law enforcement, you name it, for many, many years, spies for decades, but law enforcement, everybody else, accountants, you name it, they all have wallets like this.
02:51:40.680And we're going to come up with a bunch of other great Faraday purses and wallets and bags because that's something people really want.
02:51:46.320My marketing research was, I think it's cool.
02:56:54.440You know, these kids that were kidnapped primarily by Comanches and Apaches, most in Texas, in the 1870s, 1880s, until the reservation really came in, these kids would be like, quote-unquote, rescued.
02:57:09.380They would escape back to the Comanches.
02:57:11.300They were so, in their mind, brainwashed.
02:57:14.580They would have to basically do that, what do they used to call that, the deprogramming for Moonies or other cult members.
02:57:23.820It's the same thing with the left. They're literally under Stockholm syndrome.
02:57:27.460Totally under Stockholm syndrome and to the point where white boys are scalping American white settlers along with Comanches and Apaches.0.87
02:57:36.700They're in their mind. So if Trump began by being, you know, and it's not blackmail like somebody comes in and says, if you don't do this, we're going to do this.
03:00:32.180But the times that are coming, I think, are going to be something that nobody in the modern era has experienced.
03:00:42.400And the people that have experienced something very close to it are probably among the refugees that have come to this country that have survived periods, literally drinking ditch water, watching family members killed, things like that.
03:01:00.380mentally they're going to be a lot tougher. And I got onto this theme with Alex because
03:01:07.600two callers ago in the last hour, a caller was saying how, you know, we're trying to figure out
03:01:14.480is Trump being blackmailed? You know, what's the hold that they have on him? And by coincidence,
03:01:21.480I've been rereading this amazing book by Herman Lehman, L-E-H-M-A-N-N. He's a member. He's1.00
03:01:30.140part of Texas history. This is not something written, you know, recently. I'm just on my
03:01:35.340Kindle. This is not some new thing, right? This guy is in Texas history. The Texas Rangers that
03:01:42.800wrote biographies, they met 20, 30 years after all this and discussed the same battles that they
03:01:50.460were in. A white boy with Apaches and then Comanches, captured by Apaches, literally sold
03:01:57.440the comanches but but um uh they knew they understood this was not something that they
03:02:04.980just came up with that if if you're starting with capturing from enemy tribes and then just
03:02:10.700capturing from from the white settlers if you captured a boy you know say nine ten years old0.81
03:02:18.880he has to be able to ride he has to be able to at least survive they were very harsh people i'm not
03:02:23.980trying to just come down on the on the you know the comanches kiowas apaches and so forth just
03:02:31.380saying what it was they wouldn't but they they couldn't keep anybody like say under 10 years old
03:02:37.320because they couldn't keep up they couldn't endure the hardship of life on the run on horseback
03:02:42.260and if you were too old they didn't bother either because you know by the time you're 17 or 18 you're
03:02:48.500to set. But if they captured a, say, 10 to 15-year-old boy, even if this boy saw his parents
03:02:54.840massacred, they could put him through such an ordeal, surviving on horseback, fleeing Texas
03:03:01.640Rangers for days, starvation conditions. After a period of weeks and months, Stockholm Syndrome
03:03:09.440would kick in, and eventually these boys became Comanches and Apaches. It wasn't a one-off.
03:03:14.460This happened to dozens of peoples and girls, too, in that John Wayne movie, The Searchers.
03:03:20.460You know, the girl who's kidnapped doesn't want to come back.1.00
03:03:24.140You know, she's completely in with the Comanches.0.99
03:03:30.980How does Trump go from being, you know, make America great again to saying I might go to Israel and become, you know, the next prime minister of Israel?
03:03:42.520I don't think he's just making this up.
03:03:44.460That's how, in his mind, he's transformed himself.
03:03:47.820So you might start with being blackmailed or secondhand smoke blackmailed,
03:03:55.280like some of my key friends like Howard Lutnick.
03:03:57.580They are definitely going to be sacrificed if all these Epstein files come out.
03:04:02.440They're going to go down with the ship.0.60
03:04:05.360So we're going to hold off on the Epstein files, go after Massey in Kentucky.
03:04:10.540But eventually, I think that Trump would not now, if you had him under a sodium pentothal, sodium barbitol, truth serum, I don't think he would say he was being blackmailed anymore.0.57
03:04:27.000He just said that Netanyahu will do whatever I say.
03:04:31.260I think a transformation happens in the mind where somebody who might come to a point of view under duress, it's, you know, it's like they give him the orders and he's convinced himself he gives the orders back.
03:04:48.340And it's a rationalizing process because the mind, if it has to handle too much cognitive dissonance, is going to snap.
03:04:56.400So you wind up going from being blackmailed to thinking, I have 5D chest and the Israelis, and now Netanyahu is actually my puppet, which we know is completely wrong.
03:05:12.760Because in the first week or so after February 28th, our sneak attack, Rubio and Trump both said, we did this because Israel said, we're going to attack the matter one.
03:05:26.020He said it again two times last week that he had to do it for Israel.
03:05:54.480Well, that's not necessarily a great thing because Israel has, like, zero favorability in the rest of the world.
03:06:02.560You know, this is like, you know, the Imperial Japanese saying that, you know, some warlord in China is on our side.
03:06:09.660Or, you know, the Nazis saying that, you know, the Latvians are on our side in World War II.
03:06:16.760I mean, it's not exactly a ringing endorsement.
03:06:18.900When you see these pictures and drone videos of Gaza, and they look like Dresden, it's a non-nuclear Hiroshima done one 2,000-pound bomb at a time, and the 2,000-pound bombs all say made in America, and all the airplanes that dropped the 2,000-pound bombs were made in America and given to Israel under extremely favorable conditions, virtually gifts.
03:06:46.740So to the rest of the world now, there is no difference between America and Israel when it comes to this policy.0.68
03:06:55.480The world is aware that we gave those bombs to Israel.0.82
03:07:00.580We're still flying those bombs to Israel.0.61
03:07:04.200There's that air fleet crossing the Atlantic, the C-17s, going into Ben Gurion Airport.0.58
03:07:11.480We even gave Israel, this is like really a red line.
03:07:15.920we gave them refuelers, which extends their range.0.90
03:07:20.260And if you wanted to contain Israel, say, within a defensive perimeter,0.94
03:07:24.200you'd say, all right, we gave you F-16s, we gave you some F-35s,0.96
03:07:28.020but they have a short range, and whatever you can do within that range, that's fine.
03:07:31.700But when you give them refuelers, tankers,
03:07:34.640you're now allowing them to lily pad, leapfrog, you know, far outside of Israel0.74
03:07:39.520so that they could even strike Iran itself on their own0.88
03:07:44.320And then we're in the position of saying, well, what can we do? Netanyahu is going to attack Iran. So we had to attack with them. But, you know, in the end, this is extremely self-defeating because, you know, I mean, going back to like Genghis Khan and probably the Babylonians, there's a reason why you didn't kill diplomats.
03:10:10.800Sometimes you're going to have to finally sit down and negotiate.
03:10:14.460And nobody's going to negotiate with people that do assassination, quote-unquote, decapitation, missile strikes during negotiations.
03:10:24.860And so Trump, at the beginning, he was obviously, at least it's obvious to me, he was convinced by Netanyahu and Mossad that the Iranians would fold in a couple of days.
03:10:39.360that another leader who was more sympathetic to the West would come to the top.
03:10:47.380Well, the Israelis bombed that guy's house.
03:10:54.840They knew this was never going to happen.
03:10:57.980This was completely a ruse to bring America into the war on the side of Israel.
03:11:04.840Because Israel's goal is not a regime change in Iran.0.56
03:11:09.360Israel's goal is the destruction of Iran as a civilization, as a sovereign nation, as any threat to Israel, even hypothetically in the future, to turn it into another Libya, a Syria, a Lebanon, a Gaza.
03:11:26.920And they don't have the power to do it.0.94
03:11:28.920So they need to get the big 500-pound dumb gorilla on their side to do it for them.0.94
03:11:36.140And that's, unfortunately, the USA.0.95
03:11:39.360And, you know, it's not like a zero-sum game where we can just continue this like, oh, it's a stalemate.0.91
03:11:46.880We're blockading them, they're blockading the Strait of Hormuz, we're blockading Iran.0.85
03:11:51.240This is not a zero-sum game because every week that's going on, the levels of fuel out in the world are going down.0.98
03:12:04.700There hasn't been a ship that's left the Persian Gulf, well, very few, like less than 10%, maybe 5%, since February 28th.
03:12:13.540And this is like a lifeline to the world.
03:12:16.780So this is not like just Vietnam where we can do this for 7 years, 10 years, 12 years.
03:12:23.580This is not Iraq or Afghanistan or Iraq where we can just bleed treasure into the sand until we're tired of it.
03:12:32.000because the whole world is going down on this one, and this is going to all be reflected back on
03:12:39.100America. You see the same morons that are basically saying, I don't care if it was a sneak attack,1.00
03:12:47.020man. I don't care if it was worse than Pearl Harbor. Trump actually joked with the prime1.00
03:12:52.960minister of Japan, the female prime minister, joked with her in the White House about Pearl
03:12:57.780Harbor, joked about it, joked about Pearl Harbor. I grew up, Pearl Harbor was a horrible thing.
03:13:03.880It was, it was, you know, don't blame us for Hiroshima because you started at Pearl Harbor.
03:13:09.180And I know it's much more complicated than that. And I know we put sanctions on them0.96
03:13:13.180and we were starving them. I get it. It started oil and metals. I get it. But when I grew up,
03:13:21.800my generation grew up that began on December 7, 1941 at Pearl Harbor, because whatever else was
03:13:29.880politics, economics, but you attacked our base in Pearl Harbor. So four years later, we nuked0.63
03:13:37.280Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Sucks to be you. You started it. We finished it. That was the whole0.99
03:13:44.300way of understanding our war against Japan. You started it. We finished it. Now we have Americans0.55
03:13:51.120bragging about or proud of doing something that, to me, is worse than Pearl Harbor.0.92
03:13:57.560The Japanese at least cut off negotiations right before Pearl Harbor. It was formal and diplomatic.
03:14:05.020You know, they sent the right messages, which weren't read by our side until too late. But
03:14:10.700they at least attacked Pearl Harbor in aircraft that had come all the way across the Pacific,
03:14:16.340risking discovery. They attacked with aircraft marked on their wings.
03:14:22.640We were in negotiations, Friday in Oman, see you Monday in Geneva, and then attacked them on
03:14:29.720Saturday, which is, for them, a school day, when the kids in the schools were killed.
03:14:37.700And we also basically followed the Israel-Gaza protocol, which is if the program, if the artificial intelligence says there's an 80% chance that this guy will be home at Saturday morning at 10 a.m.,
03:14:58.580and you basically create an algorithm that says, what time is the best time to catch most of these Iranian leaders at home?
03:15:33.900We didn't even have humans looking at each target.
03:15:37.660We let AI choose the target list and unleash the tomahawks and the JASM missiles from, you know, the long-range air-delivered cruise missiles for a time-on-target attack.
03:16:11.280Our best shot is to start it ourselves with a sneak attack, with war of aggression in Poland in 1939 and at Pearl Harbor and the Philippines and Singapore, you know, in 41 and then early 42.
03:16:25.240They thought we're going to win and our best chance is if we start it.
03:16:30.780Now America, under Trump, thinks we're going to win, so the best way to optimize our victory is if we do the sneak attack.
03:17:24.520It's not just the inflation we're going to see for paying for energy.
03:17:28.280What do you think the rest of the world thinks of us, that they have to send their ships to America now, when we're the reason why they're not sending the ship to the Persian Gulf, in like a free global market?
03:17:42.200imagine an analogy where you have some corrupt town you know in the old south run by a you know
03:17:51.080mafia the sheriff the mayor you know the richest guy in town they're all named johnson or you know
03:17:57.640they're all the same clique but there's a one or two other gas stations in town and so so the the
03:18:05.120mafia guy sends arsonists to the other two gas stations and blows them up now you've got to come
03:18:11.840to my gas station and i can charge way more do you think that this is going to make the world0.63
03:18:17.140love america coming to america to load up their empty tankers when we're the reason why the price
03:18:24.960is going out of control you know if you actually want a barrel of oil delivered today in in vietnam
03:18:31.360or or korea it's way over a hundred dollars a gallon that's the futures price that's the paper
03:18:37.880price. And we're just seeing the very beginning of this. This is like, for me, I compare it to
03:18:44.640a mid-ocean tsunami, where you have the earthquake happens many hours before it hits
03:18:53.840in Thailand or Sri Lanka, many hours. And this cutoff of the fuel around the world,
03:19:05.760It's leading to the tank bottom, what they call the tank bottom, where you can't, you know, as long as there's another tanker coming, your tank farms, fuel farms in Asia and Africa, you know, they might normally be hovering somewhere between 80% full, 40% full, but there's always another ship coming.
03:32:32.980They were tougher because they grew up without that expectation.
03:32:36.740They never thought of a fan, much less air conditioning.0.98
03:32:39.560So when all of this happens, when there are famines in the world, and America will maybe not go into famine like some African country, but our social network is going to fracture and collapse because we have 350 million people, 100 million of them are fed by the government, some kind of EBT, some kind of food stamp program.0.97
03:33:06.360when all of this stops, they're going to feel that the social contract has been broken.0.98
03:33:12.400That rich guy with the garage that's all full of stored food, they're going to know about this.
03:33:19.320Even to the point of you have lights on, that means you have electricity.
03:33:25.360How do you have electricity? A generator, solar panels?
03:33:28.500You're going to have to hide things like this.
03:33:30.380And eventually, it will get down to the point of everybody around you that you encounter is looking like Auschwitz, you know, is looking like Bataan Death March, and you've still got some food on your face.
03:33:44.240You know, you're not looking like, you know, your bones aren't sticking out.
03:34:39.220Maybe not, because psychologically they're already tougher.
03:34:43.880If you grow up in a South American country where electricity is only a 50-50 proposition
03:34:48.940anyway, where in your living memory you've had currency collapses, you've had hyperinflation,
03:34:56.980you know what happens when the supermarkets are empty, and you're prepared to deal with
03:35:01.140that psychologically, I don't think Americans are prepared to deal with it psychologically.
03:35:06.700So I think it's going to hit here a lot worse.0.76
03:35:10.620And that's why, you know, and I don't mean to, you know, talk about how cruel the Comanches and Apaches were, and they were, but, you know, when you read this, and every, I think, I would give this to every young boy in America, nine years among the Indians, say, look, he didn't quit.0.90
03:35:28.620he was suddenly thrust into a situation0.97
03:35:31.680where he was with other Indian boys his age1.00
03:36:21.540So when Trump was over in Beijing, Chairman Xi actually mentioned that America is a declining power, the Thucydides Trap came up where a declining power, a declining empire is lashing out and trying to maintain its dominance.
03:36:45.420So, I forget who said this, it might have been Dugan, the Russian, but the Russians and the Chinese see their situation now as managing the American decline from a unipolar world to a multipolar world without America lashing out and taking the whole world down with it in a massive Thucydides trap reaction.
03:37:14.600How do we, it's like having a belligerent drunk relative, you know,
03:37:19.120and you've got to walk him out of the bar.
03:39:59.520If we do, we're taking a chance on being shot down.0.86
03:40:02.260So we have to launch these JASM missiles, the joint standoff, anyway, it's like a cruise missile launched from a jet because we don't want to fly right over Iran.0.73
03:40:13.140So we're launching missiles that cost $2 or $3 million each that we have a limited number of.
03:40:39.760But Iran's not going to let us off that easy
03:40:42.680because they don't want us just coming back in another six months or a year.0.87
03:40:47.100So they're going to maintain control of the Strait of Hormuz.
03:40:51.840They know that we can't physically retake it from them.
03:40:56.140If we could have physically retaken it from them, we would have done it already.
03:41:02.540What that Project Freedom was about was an attempt to escort ships out of the Persian Gulf.
03:41:10.040There are thousands of them stuck in there, including, I think, three more American merchant ships stuck in the Persian Gulf 81 days.
03:41:17.240And they were going to escort them through the southern Omani Channel, which some people had said we had cleared of mines with anti-mine drones, meaning we can't actually put a boat there to search for drones that way.
03:41:33.240So from some distance away, we're going to hypothetically clear that southern Omani channel.
03:41:40.380So we sent two of our best destroyers, Burt-class destroyers, DDGs, guided missile destroyers,
03:41:47.940briefly into the Persian Gulf for two or three days.
03:43:14.900That drives our prices up, makes the rest of the world hate our guts,
03:43:19.140And it's still sucking the, you know, that big tank, the global tank, is still sucking down because we're missing that 15 or 20 million barrels per day.
03:43:33.640One of the downfalls of this modern, interconnected, just-in-time economy, it's great when you consider that tankers are like little beads, little strands of beads crossing the ocean,
03:43:47.660going to every country, you know, a week apart, there's a tanker heading to Holland, to Australia,
03:43:54.480to Taiwan, Japan, Korea. And, you know, it may be every three days for this country,
03:44:01.120every week for that country. But their national tank, fuel tank, gas and oil is somewhere in the
03:44:09.70080 to 40%. Here comes the ship, it's backed up to 70%. Those ships have sailed, they're done.
03:44:17.660So it's back to that tsunami situation.
03:44:21.560We don't feel it yet because we haven't hit tank bottom yet.
03:44:25.560And other countries will hit tank bottom before America.
