00:00:30.000 So a country based on lies, like a family based on lies, like an individual life based on lies, cannot succeed.

00:00:40.220 In fact, it's hellish, as all of us have experienced in our lying.

00:00:45.500 And so the only way out of this is to stop lying, is to tell the truth now, probably 63 years after we should have started telling the truth.

00:00:59.080 but it's never too late to tell the truth now about everything because it's never as painful

00:01:05.820 as you think it will be it's actually an act of liberation in fact it's the only real act

00:01:14.340 of liberation telling the truth sets you free because the truth itself we're back up on j-tube

00:01:20.780 for a little bit okay guys i'm not going to be on here much we'll be to spend a little bit of time

00:01:25.280 on jtube just let you guys know that i'm live and we are going to go back to kick only very soon so

00:01:30.180 enjoy while you can and just sets you free that is always because it's six o'clock and this is

00:01:36.680 around the time i'm normally live at nighttime so and everywhere a fact and the longer you delay

00:01:42.580 doing that the more horrible the consequences of your lives so let's hope that tonight with

00:01:50.960 This conversation with Joe Kent is the beginning of the long overdue truth telling, which is the only thing that will save this country.

00:01:59.640 And one final note about Joe Kent.

00:02:01.280 W. Tucker for doing this interview.

00:02:03.800 Who I spent the last 24 hours with.

00:02:07.520 Joe Kent's resume hardly needs explanation because everyone is aware this is a man who deployed on 11 combat missions. 1.00

00:02:18.240 Stupid, stupid motherfuckers like Mark Levin try to, you know, undermine this guy's service to the country. 1.00

00:02:23.700 To the global war on terror. 1.00

00:02:25.900 This is sort of the perfect representation of the G-Watt generation. 1.00

00:02:32.060 This is one of those guys we often celebrate but too rarely hear from who we sent out to fight the so-called war on terror that began on 9-11.

00:02:41.980 And it's an entire generation of men.

00:02:44.800 Men who look and sound, for the most part, very much like Joe Kent.

00:02:50.280 So the implication, of course, he doesn't care about security or he's soft on Iran.

00:02:54.460 Joe Kent spent, well, the majority of his 20s and 30s fighting Iranian proxies and watching his friends get killed by them.

00:03:03.100 So this is someone who has actually earned the right to speak about Iran and the war on terror.

00:03:08.160 Agreed. Agreed.

00:03:08.560 He was the director of the National Counterterrorism Center.

00:03:11.220 So he's thought a lot about terrorism in this country and the blowback from events like this, and we're going to ask him about that as well.

00:03:17.420 But the other thing to notice about Joe Kent, and it may be his defining factor, is that he doesn't slander anyone.

00:03:23.780 His resignation letter was not an attack on Donald Trump.

00:03:26.500 It wasn't a promised way to tell all memoir about what he saw on the inside or to aggrandize himself or to get a job on a TV show or sell something.

00:03:36.540 I asked him at dinner last night, what are your plans? None.

00:03:38.460 he did this purely because he believes as he'll explain in a second this is the only way to save

00:03:46.260 the united states from certain disaster tell the truth yep air the secrets be honest for once in

00:03:53.640 decades about what is actually happening things that everybody who lives here suspects are

00:03:58.140 happening in some cases we're probably wrong we've come to the wrong conclusions that's okay

00:04:02.420 tell us what actually happened tell us why you did this and let's reorient this country where

00:04:09.540 it should be which is around its own citizens make the decisions that you make based on one

00:04:17.300 criterion is this good for my people or not in the way that a father would lead his family

00:04:21.020 or an officer would lead his troops smash that like button for me guys we're on youtube you

00:04:26.820 guys are getting exclusive here we're gonna watch the tucker and joe kentz interview

00:04:30.840 which honestly you guys should join the tucker carlson network i should i support tucker i just

00:04:35.320 bought a year of membership for his program which is what this is on it's paywalled but that's fine

00:04:40.360 he's probably gonna drop it tomorrow or so so shout out to tucker you guys are watching it here 0.92

00:04:45.400 so like the goddamn video especially on jtube country period and as you listen to him speak 0.98

00:04:52.140 ask yourself is this a man who's working for hezbollah or is an egomaniac or a leaker or is 0.99

00:04:58.680 Is this a man who says very little when he has nothing to say, who speaks straightforwardly and with honesty, self-evident honesty?

00:05:07.340 Is this a man of dignity and dignity?

00:05:10.280 Bro's name is Abba the milk cow.

00:05:12.200 That's funny.

00:05:13.060 Decency.

00:05:15.160 Is this a man that America once had a lot of?

00:05:19.380 Is this a man who was once, in effect, the American archetype, the guy you looked up to, the guy you wanted your son to be?

00:05:24.500 whether you agree with him or not maybe you're reaching completely different conclusions

00:05:28.740 but as you listen to him speak ask yourself is this the kind of person who makes me proud to

00:05:34.920 be a fellow American because it's really a referendum on us if we can't see that Joe Kent

00:05:41.020 whatever you think of his opinions is the kind of man this country should be producing and

00:05:48.400 should be elevating and should be proud of. If we can't see that, then we've failed the test

00:05:55.200 and we've lost. But judge yourself. Here's Joe Kent. Joe, thanks a lot for joining us.

00:06:04.580 So I appreciate this. So I want to go through the letter that you sent yesterday as you resigned

00:06:11.600 as director of the National Counterterrorism Center and basically through the big points

00:06:16.900 and give you a chance to explain them.

00:06:19.160 You've been spoken for quite a bit over the last 24 hours,

00:06:22.800 so I think it would be really helpful to all of us

00:06:25.460 if you would speak for yourself and flesh out some of these points.

00:06:28.360 I'm just going to read the first one.

00:06:30.520 I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran.

00:06:34.880 This would be more challenging to explain had the Secretary of State,

00:06:37.700 the President, and the Speaker of the House not come out and said

00:06:41.740 that we conducted this attack at this time

00:06:43.960 because the israelis were about to do so so that takes away the argument that there was an imminent

00:06:51.020 threat as in iran was planning to attack us immediately that just simply did not exist

00:06:56.980 may i ask what happened i got shut down no

00:07:05.460 Am I still live on YouTube?

00:07:12.720 I still am 0.99

00:07:13.300 Alright, let me end this shit 0.99

00:09:42.420 no no no the cameras are fine it's not the cameras chat it was uh just in general like 0.98

00:09:49.620 it's just that I was I keep the place pretty warm and sometimes shit gets hot so all right

00:10:04.780 let's get back to it though so basically he asked him what do you mean by um what do you mean exactly 0.93

00:10:13.980 by Iran

00:10:20.820 not being a threat.

00:10:27.360 This dude, SM Gaines, is lying in the chat.

00:10:29.320 Says, my uncle has connections to the RSF

00:10:31.200 and he always backs terror in general. 1.00

00:10:32.700 No, you retard. 1.00

00:10:33.680 The RSF tried to kill my uncle, you stupid fuck. 1.00

00:10:36.400 Now enjoy the shadow rum, you fucking retard. 1.00

00:10:41.220 The fuck out of my chat, dumbass. 1.00

00:10:43.980 The RSEF tried to kill my uncle, you stupid motherfucker. 1.00

00:10:49.320 I'll ask you to pause. 1.00

00:10:51.700 Guys, for those of you that are saying OSS is down,

00:10:55.540 just come on over on KICK. 0.92

00:10:57.760 Come on over on KICK. 0.99

00:10:58.740 I'm going to do something special for you guys tonight.

00:11:00.200 I'm going to go back.

00:11:00.820 I'll come back online for you guys on OSS,

00:11:04.560 and we'll do something tonight.

00:11:06.180 I've heard people say that, and this just happened,

00:11:08.840 but history has a way of getting rewritten in real time,

00:11:11.320 And then you look back 10 or 15, 20, 25 years later, and no one seems to understand the things that you saw because they've been eliminated.

00:11:20.740 So I think it's important to just stop and say, here's what we actually know.

00:11:24.700 So I'd like now, if we could, just to play one of the statements that you alluded to, and that's from Marco Rubio, the Secretary of State.

00:11:30.500 And this was shortly after this war commenced.

00:11:33.060 And he was explaining, as has happened in a thoughtful, precise way, why.

00:11:38.700 Here's Secretary of State Marco Rubio.

00:11:40.520 And so the president made the very wise decision. We knew that there was going to be an Israeli 1.00

00:11:45.380 action. We knew that that would precipitate an attack against American forces. And we knew that

00:11:50.140 if we didn't preemptively go after them before they launched those attacks, we would suffer

00:11:54.220 higher casualties and perhaps even higher those killed. And then we would all be here answering

00:11:58.780 questions about why we knew that indeed. Okay, so that is his almost contemporaneous explanation.

00:12:06.280 And it's not offhand. He reasons it out. He explains there's a logic chain there. And he says, we knew not that Iran was going to attack. He did not say that. He said, we knew that Israel was going to attack Iran. And in retaliation for those attacks by Israel against Iran, Iran might attack American forces. So the imminent threat that the Secretary of State is describing is not from Iran. It's from Israel.

00:12:31.160 Exactly. And I think this speaks to the broader issue. Who is in charge of our policy in the Middle East? Who is in charge of when we decide to go to war or not?

00:12:39.280 In this case, with what the secretary described and later on the president, later on the Speaker of the House and the way the events played out, the Israelis drove the decision to take this action, which we knew would set off a series of events, meaning the Iranians would retaliate.

00:12:56.400 Now, I think there's a potential there where we could have done several different things.

00:12:59.520 We could have simply said to the Israelis, no, you will not. 0.99

00:13:02.380 And if you do, then we will take something away from you.

00:13:06.040 I think that it's fine that we offer defense to Israel.

00:13:10.260 But when we're providing the means for their defense, we get to dictate the terms of when they go on the offensive.

00:13:17.000 Otherwise, they stand to lose that relationship.

00:13:19.920 And the Israelis felt emboldened that no matter what they did, no matter what situation they put us in, that they can. 0.80

00:13:26.700 Big boss, thank you very much.

00:13:28.360 Appreciate you, brother.

00:13:29.060 Go ahead and take this action. And we would just have to react. And so that speaks to that

00:13:34.360 relationship. But also, it just shows that there was a lobby pushing for us to go to war. I know

00:13:39.240 we'll get into that later on in the statement. But we had a real potential, I think, knowing what we

00:13:44.160 know of the Iranians and how they react, and in particular, how they react to President Trump's

00:13:49.120 leadership. The Iranians under President Trump's leadership, especially in his second term,

00:13:54.580 They have shown that they take a very calculated approach to the escalation ladder.

00:13:59.500 For instance, in the lead up to the 12-day war before Midnight Hammer, the Iranians didn't attack us.

00:14:05.680 They were engaged in negotiations with us.

00:14:08.020 When President Trump came back into office, they stopped their proxies who were attacking us under the Biden administration because they knew Biden was weak.

00:14:15.500 They stopped their proxies from attacking us as well.

00:14:18.680 So they knew President Trump was someone who wanted to negotiate.

00:14:21.720 But more importantly, they knew that President Trump was not someone to mess with because he killed Qasem Soleimani.

00:14:27.540 He killed Abu Mahdi Mohandas. He had defeated ISIS.

00:14:30.520 They knew that President Trump was a man of action. He is militarily strong.

00:14:34.600 And so they said, before we take an action, we need to make sure that it's calculated.

00:14:38.920 So I think in this scenario, even if the Israelis told us we're going to strike on this date at this time and we didn't try to negotiate with the Israelis and say, hey, we'll take something away from them. 0.53

00:14:49.040 I think we still could have back-channeled to the Iranians and said, hey, if something happens here in the next couple of days, it's not us.

00:14:55.080 We're still serious about negotiations, and we don't want to escalate this because it's well-known what the Iranians' plans were. 1.00

00:15:02.440 We knew that they were going to hit potentially our bases in the region, potentially our allies.

00:15:06.400 We knew about the Straits of Hormuz.

00:15:07.580 They said they were going to do it.

00:15:08.360 All of these things I think were fairly well-known.

00:15:10.540 And the Houthis' ability to close the Red Sea, which is not yet done, but which would be catastrophic to the world. 0.92

00:15:16.260 And that's going to be the next step, by the way, is closing the Red Sea.

00:15:18.700 That's coming next.

00:15:20.100 But for the purpose of explaining your position or fleshing it out more so people can understand it. 0.98

00:15:25.500 Cake and locals are not down, retards. 1.00

00:15:27.480 Refresh the page. 0.73

00:15:28.760 This is your most high-profile resignation by far in a long time.

00:15:35.380 And there's a lot of commentary on this.

00:15:37.680 And I kind of took a quick trip through it this afternoon.

00:15:40.240 And one of the consistent themes is, well, I mean, of course, there's a lot of slander, which we can talk about.

00:15:46.040 But the substantive attack on you, and it is an attack or refutation of your letter, is that, well, actually, Joe Kent was totally for using military action.

00:15:55.680 He supported the Soleimani killing, for example.

00:15:58.740 He seemed fine with the 12-day war, for example.

00:16:02.340 So he doesn't have a problem on principle with an engagement with Iran.

00:16:10.000 You're saying what to that?

00:16:11.980 What's your response?

00:16:12.960 Well, I have no compunction about really fighting anybody who threatens our country.

00:16:17.480 And the Iranians have posed a threat in the past. 1.00

00:16:19.940 And the Iranians have a way of threatening America. 1.00

00:16:23.460 They have the capability.

00:16:24.460 And we always talk in the intelligence circles about capability and intent, what your enemy

00:16:29.340 is capable of doing and what they actually want to do.

00:16:32.220 And again, back to the data that we have on the Iranians, they use the escalation ladder. 1.00

00:16:36.220 We saw that deliberately during the 12-day war. 0.88

00:16:38.900 When they struck back after Midnight Hammer, it was very deliberate.

00:16:42.240 They fired an equal amount.

00:16:43.340 And they notified exactly, they notified what time, how many rockets, everything.

00:16:48.300 Amount of missiles as we dropped bombs on the nuclear facilities.

00:16:52.620 And they basically hit a part of a base in Qatar that they knew we didn't have any troops on.

00:16:56.940 They didn't want to escalate any further than we were willing to go.

00:17:01.380 Here's something that no one wants to ever admit about the Iranians. 1.00

00:17:03.680 The Iranians are extremely, extremely measured and calculated in their responses, okay? 1.00

00:17:16.160 No one likes to admit this, but that's the truth.

00:17:20.860 Yes, I know Locals doesn't have audio, bro.

00:17:23.260 Watch on kick, okay, or refresh the page on Locals, and it'll be fine, okay?

00:17:30.360 You're being annoying now.

00:17:31.660 but also the the Iranians when when they pose a threat to us they usually do it with their 1.00

00:17:38.120 proxies and if their proxies stick their heads up and their proxies come after us this is basically

00:17:41.800 the Trump doctrine we hammer them and we hammer their high-profile leaders Qasem Soleimani was

00:17:47.120 highly effective and highly revered in Iran because the previous presidents prior to President

00:17:52.040 Trump Obama and Bush let Qasem Soleimani run around raise proxy armies kill Americans and

00:17:57.840 No one ever did anything to him.

00:17:59.360 President Trump rightfully killed Qasem Soleimani.

00:18:02.040 We got his deputy, Abim Abou.

00:18:03.720 I don't know about that.

00:18:05.200 That was a major escalation.

00:18:07.900 That was a major escalation.

00:18:10.760 And quite frankly, the proxies that they talk about,

00:18:15.840 the Iranians were not the ones that built up the IEDs that blew up soldiers in Iraq.

00:18:19.540 That was al-Qaeda.

00:18:20.120 That's a common lie that's been debunked a million times.

00:18:23.120 Qasem Soleimani, who had American blood in his hands, took them off the battlefield.

00:18:26.320 But then President Trump stopped. He took those two key players off the battlefield and he said, I'm not going to further escalate with Iran unless you escalate with us.

00:18:37.240 Well, he also took them off the, he also put them on the foreign terrorist organization list, FTO list. He, you know, reimposed higher sanctions, killed Soleimani, you know, pulled out of the JCPOA. These were all very significant escalations, maybe not militarily, but economically, these were huge.

00:18:57.560 knowing that if we struck iran and we truly struck the regime that would only strengthen the regime

00:19:03.640 so then president trump did something that's incredibly smart use that decisive military

00:19:07.400 action but then he coupled it with an economic package of sanctions maximum pressure so yeah

00:19:12.960 that wasn't good that was escalation that's the problem sanctions we can debate whether or not

00:19:18.700 we should be using sanctions as the prime reserve currency holder whatever but he pressured the

00:19:22.720 iranians economically after punching them in the mouth and showing that hey i won't take this i'm 0.93

00:19:26.920 not Obama. I'm not Bush. If you cross a line, I will come after you. But then he really put the 0.66

00:19:33.040 pressure on them economically. And if you look at the effect of the economic sanctions, that's what

00:19:37.600 got the Iranian people on the streets actually protesting against the Ayatollah's government,

00:19:44.000 which is ostensibly what we would like. We would like to see a bottom-up regime change where we

00:19:48.800 get rid of the Ayatollah, but it's the will of the people and they have a new successful government

00:19:53.160 that's stable that we can deal with the one way to throw that all out the window and this isn't

00:19:58.400 just joe kent's opinion many many many scholars and i think a lot of intelligence assessments

00:20:02.460 have been written about this too i know for a fact they have uh is that if we struck the regime

00:20:07.220 it would only strengthen it and that's not boom i told y'all and everyone's over here myron you 0.99

00:20:14.940 you you you like iran no no i told you guys striking the ayatollah would be fucking retarded 1.00

00:20:20.100 I told y'all 0.99

00:20:21.480 And here's the number two guy

00:20:23.600 In the intelligence community 0.99

00:20:25.100 Telling you exactly what I fucking told you niggas 1.00

00:20:27.500 Like bro 0.99

00:20:31.400 I told you guys

00:20:33.720 It was gonna be an L 0.95

00:20:35.860 Killing the Ayatollah 1.00

00:20:37.800 I told y'all 0.96

00:20:39.180 And not only did I tell you guys it was gonna be an L 0.97

00:20:41.360 I told you guys also

00:20:43.060 Okay

00:20:44.040 That it would only strengthen

00:20:46.120 The government

00:20:48.260 Okay

00:20:49.620 It would only strengthen and make it harder

00:20:52.180 to overthrow the government

00:20:54.760 because he is a religious figure.

00:20:58.400 Also, it's important that you guys understand this

00:21:00.040 because I mentioned this yesterday.

00:21:01.560 I think I only mentioned this from my OSS guys.

00:21:04.060 In Iran, guys, the Ayatollah, okay,

00:21:09.620 think of him as his own government figure

00:21:11.620 and then you have the regular government.

00:21:13.760 Khamenei, right, the supreme leader,

00:21:15.740 He runs the military

00:21:17.560 And like the intelligence services basically

00:21:20.100 Defense, only, basically that's his job

00:21:22.240 His defense when it comes to like

00:21:23.400 The military, etc

00:21:24.720 The president

00:21:28.080 Pazeshkin, etc, they do the

00:21:30.120 Day-to-day economic stuff with

00:21:31.820 The government

00:21:32.800 Interestingly enough, did you guys know

00:21:36.280 That the supreme leader votes for

00:21:38.160 The president? I didn't know any

00:21:40.160 Of this shit, I figured this out by talking 1.00

00:21:42.160 To an Iranian, a local, from Tehran 1.00

00:21:44.380 A couple of days ago on X

00:21:45.480 just a regular dude that lives about 30 40 minutes outside uh tehran he explained this

00:21:52.280 how iranian politics are so the ayatollah guys though he is the head of state he does not deal

00:21:59.200 with day-to-day government functions that is on the president someone said low audio yeah you're 0.99

00:22:03.980 getting kicked out you're you're getting uh you're getting out of here bro uh rock lee get the fuck 1.00

00:22:08.280 out of here bro i know the audio is not low get the fuck out my chat fucking loser get the fuck 1.00

00:22:13.680 out my shit, man. I hate fucking trolls. Thank you, Rolando, for the 100 kicks. Anyway, 1.00

00:22:21.240 so that is how the Iranian government is structured. So the Supreme Leader actually

00:22:28.860 votes in elections, which is crazy, but that is what it is. And a lot of Americans don't know

00:22:33.620 this. Hell, I didn't know either, right? So very important for people to understand

00:22:40.300 that killing the Ayatollah would backfire 0.88

00:22:44.280 because he is more of a religious figure 0.74

00:22:45.880 and he's actually very widely liked by the people.

00:22:49.280 Something else that no one talks about.

00:22:50.980 The people like the Ayatollah. 0.72

00:22:52.660 They don't like the government.

00:22:55.520 Now, some of you guys might say,

00:22:56.380 but hold on, isn't the Ayatollah the government?

00:22:58.320 Not really.

00:23:00.840 Not really.

00:23:04.800 He controls a component of government,

00:23:07.440 The military, IRGC, etc

00:23:10.420 But he is not representative of the entire government

00:23:15.180 That is the president, the parliament, etc

00:23:17.000 Okay

00:23:19.580 Someone else said the audio is low

00:23:26.040 Okay chat, is the audio low? Give me ones or twos

00:23:28.080 If the audio is good, give me a one

00:23:29.400 If the audio is low, give me a two 0.93

00:23:30.720 Let's see what the fuck happens here 0.61

00:23:33.980 Give me a one if the audio is good 0.98

00:23:35.360 Give me a two if the audio is low

00:23:37.420 one of it's if it's good two of it's low i think that's just basic common sense i mean i think of

00:23:44.860 myself uh and probably you're in this camp as well we didn't like joe biden we didn't like

00:23:48.780 barack obama but if an outside force were to come in here and try and topple them while they were

00:23:53.500 the president i would 100 rally around the flag exactly and that's precisely what happened

00:23:58.300 that's just common sense so if we wanted to strike you actually did you right you joined

00:24:04.540 In the military under Bill Clinton, whom I assume you didn't vote for.

00:24:07.860 Right.

00:24:08.880 Right.

00:24:09.340 You joined in 1998.

00:24:10.640 You've gone the whole cycle of the War on Terror, I notice, and served out as an NCO, I think, your entire—

00:24:18.540 NCO and Warrant Officer.

00:24:19.880 Yeah, Warrant Officer, 20 years.

00:24:22.460 And I should just say, I hate ever to refer to a man's resume as like a data point because your ideas exist separately.

00:24:29.220 But in this specific case, meaning you, you spend most of your time fighting Iranian proxies.

00:24:35.940 Yeah, a good deal of it, yeah.

00:24:37.700 So you're aware of the threat from Iran. 0.96

00:24:41.440 You have personally used violence against that threat.

00:24:44.520 I have.

00:24:45.040 Yep.

00:24:45.900 A lot of it, I think.

00:24:47.340 And you supported the president's policy up until fairly recently.

00:24:53.300 Right.

00:24:53.960 And you've said that a lot in public, in fact.

00:24:55.780 Yeah, mods, everybody that is trolling on the audio, kick them out.

00:24:59.220 We want him out of here, bro.

00:25:02.160 You went to work for him.

00:25:03.060 He hired you.

00:25:03.860 Yeah.

00:25:04.200 Right.

00:25:05.920 But here's the, from what I can. 0.91

00:25:07.540 Get these niggas out of here, bro. 1.00

00:25:08.560 They hurt the quality of the show every single time when they fucking do that shit, bro. 1.00

00:25:11.300 I fucking hate audio trolls. 1.00

00:25:12.740 They come in here and they think shit's funny. 1.00

00:25:14.240 That's why you got to kick them out forever. 1.00

00:25:16.120 Forever banished.

00:25:16.780 You can tell is the central question.

00:25:19.120 Like this guy right here, Lund Eater.

00:25:20.780 You're about to be Shadow Realm Eater now, bro.

00:25:23.060 Enjoy the Shadow Realm. 1.00

00:25:24.200 Ban the fuck out of here, bro. 1.00

00:25:26.640 Send all these niggas to Shadow Realm, bro. 1.00

00:25:28.060 time to send you to the shadow realm the future is mine imminent threat now the president has 0.94

00:25:36.680 said many times to many people including the public iran can't have a nuclear weapon i'm sure

00:25:41.760 he must have said that to you you don't have to say it but he said it to everybody is that fair

00:25:44.660 that's fair yeah they can't have a nuke whenever asked we say let's just start here they can't

00:25:49.280 have a nuke okay got it everyone agreed with that conceptually we're going to talk about that because

00:25:54.720 Tulsi Gabbard gets grilled on this about the nuclear weapon, and she admits that we destroyed

00:26:00.600 their nuclear capabilities. So why the hell did we invade them? Or sorry, why the hell did we bomb

00:26:04.220 them? Was Iran on the verge of getting a nuclear weapon? No, they weren't, you know, three weeks

00:26:11.880 ago when this started, and they weren't in June either. I mean, the Iranians have had a religious

00:26:17.220 ruling, a fatwa, against actually developing a nuclear weapon since 2004. That's been in place

00:26:22.280 since 2004 that's available in the public sphere but then also we had no intelligence to indicate

00:26:27.360 that that fatwa was being disobeyed or it was on the cusp of being lifted the iranian strategy

00:26:33.360 it's actually pretty pragmatic the iranians are obviously aware of what's taking place

00:26:37.800 in their big boss thank you omar appreciate you south side welder appreciate you rolan kanto thank

00:26:42.540 you so much on kick region and their strategy was to not completely abandon their nuclear program

00:26:48.540 because they saw what happened to Muammar Gaddafi in Libya when he...

00:26:52.320 They saw what happened to Saddam Hussein, too,

00:26:54.360 because Muammar Gaddafi gave up his nuclear program,

00:26:56.500 and what did they do? They killed him anyway.

00:26:59.940 One thing that's very apparent in the Middle East 0.99

00:27:02.180 is they know that they cannot trust the Middle East, unfortunately.

00:27:05.360 They said, hey, I've got no more nukes. I'll do what you say.

00:27:07.200 I'll give up my nukes.

00:27:08.440 And we gave him the Nobel Peace Prize?

00:27:10.320 Yeah, the regime changed him,

00:27:12.360 and he was executed by his own people in the most horrific way. 0.68

00:27:15.020 Oh, sodomized.

00:27:15.840 And also what happened there, too. 1.00

00:27:17.820 Now Libya is a shithole. It was a once thriving country with no debt. 0.80

00:27:22.740 Now it's a shithole. By a bayonet. Right. OK. 0.97

00:27:26.520 So that's what that's the lesson, I think, that the entire region took from that when Hillary Clinton.

00:27:31.580 Unfortunately, that is what the neocon neoliberal warmongers.

00:27:35.880 That's the lesson that they showed everyone in the region.

00:27:38.340 And then conversely, the Iranians also knew that if they came out and said, OK, we've got a nuke, whether they were bluffing or not. 0.89

00:27:45.420 Right. Saddam Hussein, Iraq right next door. 0.95

00:27:48.360 And he hung.

00:27:49.540 And just so you guys know, they never had a nuke, FYI.

00:27:52.800 They never had a nuke, okay?

00:27:55.800 That has been Israeli propaganda for years, I think.

00:27:58.460 He was hung by his own people after a bloody war that's still essentially going on inside of Iraq.

00:28:05.180 So the Iranians' position, when viewed from the lens of the region, was actually fairly pragmatic.

00:28:10.940 They were preventing themselves from developing a bomb, but they still wanted the ability.

00:28:16.000 They wanted the ability to enrich.

00:28:17.600 They wanted the ability to have some components so that they weren't completely stripped of it.

00:28:22.460 See, I love that Joe Kent is actually being honest here.

00:28:25.260 Yes, the strategy, guys, was being what's called a nuclear threshold state, okay?

00:28:29.920 A nuclear threshold state allows you the ability to basically say, look, we want to comply.

00:28:37.880 You need to lift the sanctions.

00:28:38.780 If you're not, we're going to enrich at a higher level.

00:28:40.940 the enrichment at 60 percent etc was always a negotiating chip to get the sanctions relieved

00:28:47.460 okay guys it's that simple i know a lot of neocons don't like hearing this i know a lot 0.97

00:28:54.460 of fucking israelis don't like hearing this i know a lot of zionists don't like hearing this 0.97

00:28:58.320 but it's the fucking truth it was always about maintaining a nuclear program for energy of 1.00

00:29:06.040 course but also as a deterrent where look we are threshold we can make a bomb but we're choosing 0.97

00:29:12.060 not to we want to negotiate that's what it was that's what it was and can you honestly blame them

00:29:22.500 we destroyed Syria we destroyed Lebanon we destroyed Sudan we destroyed um Iraq Libya 0.98

00:29:34.100 Like, we destroyed the entire Middle East. 1.00

00:29:36.420 Everyone in the Middle East either got destroyed by the United States and Israel

00:29:38.960 or got cucked by the United States and Israel.

00:29:43.380 So if you want to go ahead and be able to have some type of autonomy,

00:29:46.520 some sovereignty, what are you going to do?

00:29:52.000 How are you going to keep these bullies from attacking you? 0.97

00:29:55.060 A nuclear bomb. 0.95

00:29:56.480 Look at Kim Jong-un. 0.99

00:29:59.840 Gets a nuclear bomb.

00:30:01.920 What does Trump do? 1.00

00:30:02.620 Goes and visits him in fucking North Korea. 1.00

00:30:07.700 That's the truth, chat. 1.00

00:30:09.980 And to be honest with you,

00:30:11.620 if the Iranians had a nuclear bomb,

00:30:14.180 the Israelis wouldn't be attacking them 0.94

00:30:15.440 the way that they do right now.

00:30:22.280 We always assess that they were either several months

00:30:24.640 or a year, two years away

00:30:26.780 from actually being able to develop a nuclear weapon. 1.00

00:30:29.080 And that's not because the Iranians are stupid people. 1.00

00:30:31.120 I think we can tell. 1.00

00:30:32.120 They have very high IQ. And the fact that they've been able to build some of the weapons that they've built while being sanctioned is actually very impressive. One of the most sanctioned countries in the world, number two most sanctioned country in the world, chat, behind Russia. At one time, they were probably number one prior to the Russia-Ukraine war.

00:30:52.680 Right now, we're North Korea, but they've always been in the top two to three. 1.00

00:30:56.180 the iranians are anything but stupid they had the ability i think that the the brain power to 1.00

00:31:01.280 actually develop one or they could have simply traded a ton of oil with yeah um some idiot comes 1.00

00:31:07.440 in here tony 10 says come on man we're jihadists you can't be serious see bro this is why i can't 1.00

00:33:22.840 actually develop one or they could have simply traded a ton of oil with pakistan or someone else 1.00

00:33:28.300 to actually get a nuclear weapon they were not doing that we had no indicate no intelligence

00:33:33.120 to indicate that they were. 0.99

00:33:37.080 All the retarded Zionists, 1.00

00:33:44.080 all the stupid, you know, 1.00

00:33:46.740 neocons, a.k.a. the warmongers, 1.00

00:33:48.640 shut the fuck up forever. 1.00

00:33:50.940 Shut the fuck up forever. 1.00

00:33:53.120 This is the number two guy 1.00

00:33:54.460 from the intelligence community

00:33:56.440 telling you,

00:33:58.240 because he just resigned yesterday,

00:34:00.160 that there was no intelligence 1.00

00:34:03.060 that they were doing that stupid fucks in my chat don't know nothing you got the number two 1.00

00:34:09.600 guy in the intel community telling you what are you going to say now you're smarter than joe kent 1.00

00:34:14.080 you know more than joe kent you have a tssci you got a white house clearance retard shut the fuck 1.00

00:34:19.400 up hey stupid people bro then why was the president was he told that they were on the 1.00

00:34:29.380 hey uh this retard in the chat he first says where can i watch this video without uh this 1.00

00:34:34.980 guy stopping every 15 seconds uh the shadow realm enjoy that's where you can watch it 0.66

00:34:38.900 time to send you to the shadow realm the future is mine that's where you can watch it

00:34:46.020 why at the beginning of every conversation about iran would the president say

00:34:51.200 i don't want iran to have a nuclear weapon why was that the central question when

00:34:55.520 And you would know, since you were the director of the National Counterterrorism Center, why would he say that if there was no intelligence or evidence that they were actually developing a nuke?

00:35:07.320 So a couple of things.

00:35:09.160 PBD said Joe Kent will lie.

00:35:11.260 Guys, PBD is a diaspora Iranian who is pro-Shah.

00:35:17.920 He is a hardcore Zionist, or he is a Zionist. 0.51

00:35:22.120 He is pro-Israel.

00:35:22.840 so i hate to say it but you can't take anything that pbd says seriously when it comes to geopolitical

00:35:28.380 affairs um because uh patrick is terrified of criticizing the jewish lobby israel or zionism

00:35:36.620 because he understands that for his business to um make a bunch of money because he does a lot of

00:35:42.980 uh consulting he cannot be critical of israel so you can't rely on his um i hate to say it you

00:35:51.640 can't really rely on his um geopolitical analysis in the middle east it's extremely skewed extremely

00:35:58.100 skewed all right it's it's extremely skewed and biased because he's pro-israel all right and he

00:36:05.580 runs a consulting business on top of the podcast and a lot of these his clients that he consults

00:36:09.480 with are jews so what do you think okay this is what i talk about in the in the letter about this

00:36:19.760 ecosystem of information that's laundered through a lot of prominent neoconservative

00:36:25.440 types that are very... Translation?

00:36:33.820 Sympathetic to the Israeli cause, and then also Israeli government officials who give us things

00:36:38.520 in semi-official channels. What they did was they created basically a shifting red line or a new

00:36:45.300 red line so that if the president's red line was iran cannot have a nuclear weapon we've actually

00:36:50.160 got a lot of trade space in there for a deal to be made because of what the iran what i just

00:36:54.680 described with the iranian policy essentially the iranian saying okay well we don't want a nuclear

00:36:58.400 weapon well that means we basically are at a point where we can start negotiating and we can come up

00:37:02.920 with the deal and the president is a fantastic deal maker so if your goal is to but the problem

00:37:08.360 was never let's be clear about this the problem was never about removing their nuclear capabilities

00:37:14.700 it was about destroying the regime because if it was about negotiations they already had that

00:37:21.820 with the jcpoa and the iranians despite what israel's will tell you the iranians were complying

00:37:27.200 with the jcpoa 100 how do we know this because several other countries were involved in the

00:37:34.360 process you can hate obama all you want you can hate john carrey as much as you want you can hate 0.58

00:37:43.660 the entire Joe Biden, whatever.

00:37:47.020 The bottom line is this.

00:37:48.940 The JCPOA was absolutely the best document 0.71

00:37:53.520 when it came to the oversight, control,

00:38:00.100 and most importantly,

00:38:03.620 anti-nuclear proliferation for Iran.

00:38:08.800 Okay?

00:38:10.200 It truly was. 0.99

00:38:12.200 They only started to aggressively enrich once Trump stupidly pulled out of the nuclear deal. 0.92

00:38:22.160 Move us away from any kind of deal and your goal is to move us into a conflict. 0.82

00:38:27.180 You have to shift that red line.

00:38:29.040 And that's where a lot of this, I would say, what became a de facto U.S. policy of Iran can have no nuclear enrichment.

00:38:37.040 it was laundered through a lot of the different talking heads mark levin mark dubowitz you've got

00:38:42.180 the foundation for the defense of democracies you guys want to know who owns all the who runs

00:38:47.100 all these organizations i think we know i think we know you name it washington dc has plenty of

00:38:56.320 pro-israeli lobbyists who will come and just so you guys know also all these republican 0.98

00:39:00.740 fucking think tanks they're run by jews bro we just gotta call spade a spade man okay the people 0.99

00:39:09.820 to write these fucking defense policy papers like the clean break memo or the project for 1.00

00:39:14.920 a new american century all written by jews dual allegiance zionist jews 0.99

00:39:22.180 and say those things who will publish think pieces on it who will go on the media who will run

00:39:28.160 you know op-eds in the wall street journal to talk about this why they can't have

00:39:31.480 any enrichment whatsoever and then we have a high degree of engagement with and they say no

00:39:37.240 enrichment right they say no enrichment and then they move the goalpost okay because if it was just

00:39:44.160 about the new like making sure that we have uh they don't have a nuclear bomb they could have

00:39:48.420 been had that shout out to you uh chamet the barbarian israeli government officials who will

00:39:54.000 come in and say well they're they're enriching and they could enrich or they could enrich more

00:39:59.100 and that will get them closer to a nuclear weapon so then enrichment basically became the the new

00:40:04.900 u.s policy and the only official i've heard and folks are welcome to to look for this that actually

00:40:10.280 that said this in the first trump administration was mike pompeo he said it the president didn't

00:40:14.640 say it the president has been yep mike and why because mike pompeo has a batter in his back

00:40:20.100 from the jewish lobby that is why he was one of the biggest pushers to end the nuclear deal and 0.88

00:40:26.080 put the irgc on the on the watch list guys i did not watch this interview this interview is live 0.91

00:45:03.120 They have what's called a mosaic defense.

00:45:04.680 I also explained all this yesterday for you guys as well.

00:45:07.680 Before the Ayatollah died, he had marching orders given to all the IRGC heads from 31 different provinces all across Iran.

00:45:15.540 What did that basically say?

00:45:16.860 Hey, guys, when or if the U.S. kills me, this is what you guys are going to do. 0.97

00:45:22.360 You are going to attack Israel and everybody else all along the Gulf. 0.98

00:45:33.660 And they definitely did that.

00:45:35.060 a mosaic defense guys is a defense or a military structure where it's decentralized okay it means

00:45:42.220 if the head is gone they can still effectively fight and cause damage okay and the iranians

00:45:48.400 came up with this military structure after they saw saddam hussein get toppled okay because

00:45:53.740 saddam hussein had a centralized structure okay so they learned from saddam getting toppled and 0.97

00:46:02.760 they also learn from Gaddafi getting toppled and they realize, holy shit, if our leadership is 0.90
