The U.S. and U.K. Navy shooting down 15 attack drones over the Red Sea
00:00:10.200
while the Pentagon was reporting almost 100 Iran proxy attacks
00:00:18.840
66 of those troops wounded, 19 of them with severe brain trauma,
00:00:23.800
and no response from the White House, no response from the Pentagon,
00:00:27.840
which is apparently caught up in DEI drills and has no time or resources to protect our forces.
00:00:35.000
By the way, our military is now the smallest it's been since the beginning of World War II,
00:00:39.660
1.3 million, and unlikely to improve without massive enlistment bonuses or a return to the draft.
00:00:47.280
All branches fail to reach their recruiting goals by large margins,
00:00:51.260
and huge numbers of service members just want out, and they're leaving in droves.
00:00:55.960
And with Biden and Lloyd Austin mandating vaccines and pushing Marxist critical race theory
00:01:02.100
and DEI, diversity, equity, and inclusion, there's no wonder.
00:01:07.400
Producer Barack Obama taking a lot of flack for a Netflix film he consulted on,
00:01:15.580
and with a line in the movie demonizing white people, generating a lot of backlash.
00:01:21.020
And I hope this will remind everybody just who Barack Obama really is.
00:01:28.760
And his vice president acts like he's in a race with Obama to be most divisive.
00:01:33.220
Biden actually accusing Israel of indiscriminate bombing in Gaza.
00:01:37.540
CNN also claiming Israel was using dumb bombs in those airstrikes against Hamas terrorists.
00:01:44.200
ABC News, to its credit, set the record straight.
00:01:46.720
Israel is using precision weapons, guided weapons, 55 to 60 percent of the time.
00:01:52.500
ABC News reports that is the highest number of smart bombs, guided bombs in the history of urban warfare.
00:02:01.080
Our guest today is William Jacobson, professor of law at Cornell University.
00:02:05.540
We'll be talking about the rise of anti-Semitism and anti-Israel bigotry.
00:02:11.760
Professor Jacobson, one of the smartest people we talked to, I hope you'll join us for that.
