Especially animals, the highest form of intelligence on this planet, as far as I'm concerned.
00:02:11.920
Because animals, unlike humans, don't need to bullshit themselves in order to feel the
00:02:32.960
It's going to be a barn burner of a banger of a show today, I think.
00:02:38.720
You know how I love to speak with geniuses, and I have them all the time, but this one
00:02:44.680
A genius filmmaker and a unique voice in America, carrying on in the tradition of the forefathers
00:02:52.720
of America, a great American, a great artist, and a, for sure, genius, Dinesh D'Souza.
00:03:03.920
I think we last did this for Police State a few years ago.
00:03:09.440
And, boy, isn't it good that we got through all that, although not unscathed, I guess.
00:03:17.160
Yes, and we're in a bit of a new era, so this new film is a film for today, for these times.
00:03:24.060
Yeah, I want to talk to you about the film in a minute, but, you know, The Dragon's Prophecy,
00:03:31.440
Yeah, and we just had Jonathan Cahn on our last show, so, you know, we talked about it
00:03:37.100
with him, and then you've made a movie about it.
00:03:41.040
And Debbie and I, my wife, we went to Israel in December of 22, and we discovered, we fell
00:03:50.780
I felt like I was in the land of the Bible, you know, which is unusual these days, because
00:03:55.080
you can go to places, you go to Rome, you go to Stockholm, you go to Copenhagen.
00:04:09.700
So, in any event, we discover biblical archaeology.
00:04:12.440
I've been writing about Christian history and apologetics for two decades, but much of
00:04:18.720
And some of it has come out of the ground in recent years.
00:04:26.460
And then, of course, nine months later, October 7th, and I realized that that's an epical event.
00:04:35.140
And so, I was trying to connect these two things together, and I realized they are connected
00:04:41.020
in the sense that, ultimately, this is an argument over whose land is it.
00:04:46.220
And one way you answer that question is you ask, who are the original inhabitants of this
00:04:51.500
So, biblical archaeology, October 7th, there is a nexus.
00:04:55.960
And then, along, marches in Jonathan Cahn, who publishes his book called The Dragon's
00:05:03.200
And he made an observation that blew me away, which is that he said, look, what's going
00:05:07.660
on here is like a biblical event, and that the battles between Israel and Hamas are a
00:05:15.920
He calls it a resurrection of ancient battles between the Israelites, and, you know, of course,
00:05:22.500
there were the Moabites, there were the Hittites, but notably, the most persistent of the enemies
00:05:29.160
And he doesn't just claim this, and he doesn't just hang it on the word Philistine-Palestine,
00:05:35.560
He goes into it with a rigor and a detail that I was like, I don't think people have heard
00:05:42.120
I think I can pull this tapestry together into a film, and so that's what we did.
00:05:47.000
Yeah, he takes it all the way back to source, doesn't he?
00:05:50.520
Well, he, I love the example of Samson, where, you know, Samson is the biblical hero.
00:05:56.780
He represents the strength of Israel, and he's captured by, guess who, the Philistines.
00:06:03.300
And the Philistines blind him in much the same way that Israel is blinded in October 7th.
00:06:15.860
Now, that area, the Gaza Strip, what we call the Gaza Strip today, was Philistia.
00:06:20.780
But in Philistia, the land of the Philistines, there were five cities, notably Gaza.
00:06:25.920
And so Samson ends up in Gaza, and then, this is the crusher, it says,
00:06:30.440
the people of Gaza demanded that he be stripped and that he be brought out for their entertainment.
00:06:38.520
And then I remembered, October 7th, October 8th, this is exactly what happens in Gaza.
00:06:44.080
They bring out hostages, they're stripped, people are dancing with joy, Allahu Akbar.
00:06:49.500
And so what Khan is saying is that when you look at this through the lens of the Bible,
00:06:55.620
it takes on a much wider and even a spiritual significance.
00:07:02.320
And, you know, I have to say, Roseanne, obviously, none of us could have anticipated Charlie Kirk's assassination.
00:07:07.380
People are talking now about, like, a spirit of not just political and cultural, but spiritual renewal.
00:07:16.740
Well, then we have to talk about Charlie Kirk, right?
00:07:22.220
He's, this is, I think that's another epical event of its own.
00:07:32.760
Debbie and I were right in five rows from the front in the funeral.
00:07:36.280
And just hearing these, you know, one after the other cabinet ministers talking about God.
00:07:43.380
I mean, I've never heard anything like that in American politics.
00:07:46.280
And, you know, I was a young guy in the Reagan White House.
00:07:51.300
You talk about the man upstairs, but it was in this whimsical, generic tone.
00:07:57.940
You're talking about people with very passionate conviction about returning to the principles of the Bible.
00:08:18.740
Well, I was alarmed, you mean alarmed by the speeches or alarmed by the event, by Charlie's assassination?
00:08:28.860
Yeah, kind of, because something was alarming to me about it.
00:08:33.020
And, I mean, it's one thing if the president and his cabinet were talking about a return to God and all that stuff
00:08:43.520
that included all Americans, including Jewish Americans and, you know, Buddhist Americans
00:08:48.840
and all, like, religious groups in America, because it's supposed to be a big tent, right?
00:08:55.880
But it seemed like it was only one group of Americans they were talking to.
00:09:06.140
And then when they capped it off with Goebbels, I mean, Tucker Carlson, it was like,
00:09:13.420
oh, how do you expect to keep a big tent when you're doing crap like that?
00:09:18.580
You know, and it was very alarming to me, like, what are they doing to MAGA?
00:09:23.300
Are they turning this into a Christian nationalist movement?
00:09:26.680
Because, really, I don't want any part of that.
00:09:29.140
I don't want any part of a church and state, of something with no separation between church
00:09:38.400
and state where there is a one religion sanctified by the government.
00:09:47.460
I do think I wasn't bothered by it for this reason.
00:09:50.500
I saw it not so much as a governmental event, but as a Charlie event that was a resonance of Charlie himself.
00:10:02.340
You know, here's a guy, this is his funeral, really, except it was a funeral with 100,000 people,
00:10:07.120
which is not going to be your funeral or mine, I don't think.
00:10:10.180
And so I think everybody got in the spirit of that.
00:10:12.540
Now, weirdly, and my wife will corroborate this, I get up, march off to the bathroom,
00:10:17.080
which going to the bathroom in that kind of rally is like a 30-minute process.
00:10:20.780
I come back, and, like, Tucker is in the middle of his speech.
00:10:23.840
I missed the, you know, like, the key part, but then, of course, the day after, I see all the commentary and so on.
00:10:30.500
And, you know, I do think that there's something very bad going on here.
00:10:37.140
I've known Tucker not well, but off and on for 30 years.
00:10:41.680
In fact, when Tucker started out, he worked for a magazine, and I was the managing editor of it.
00:10:46.660
He came in as, like, an intern, but I left almost immediately after he came to go to the White House.
00:10:52.940
I knew him a little bit, and we've stayed in touch over the years.
00:10:55.220
Last year, Tucker and I did a speaking tour in Australia together.
00:10:58.320
We spoke in, like, eight cities and was, like, put on by this Australian billionaire, and he was perfectly cordial.
00:11:14.300
But then suddenly this eruption all in recent months, and it's put me in a very awkward position
00:11:27.460
And it also makes it look like, you know, our side is fighting, and yet I don't see how one can ignore these trends
00:11:43.320
They're politically divisive inside of the Republican Party.
00:11:46.780
They have the potential of destroying the MAGA movement.
00:11:50.780
And they have the potential of doing a lot of harm to the country in general.
00:11:54.240
So for all of that, the stakes are a lot bigger than Tucker, and this phenomenon has to be addressed,
00:12:04.880
It's like, well, Tucker was, we were talking before about, and I don't know if you want to go into it,
00:12:13.520
But Tucker was kind of brought in, and he's like the, and has been for a long time.
00:12:22.240
His, he, Candace, Nick Fuentes, they are kind of a cudgel against MAGA,
00:12:30.000
and, and the growing numbers of disaffected youth that are following all that, all that.
00:12:42.560
So Ma and Josh, you know, my brother-in-law, for you guys to know,
00:12:44.820
you've been calling him at republiclifenow.com.
00:12:46.620
He sells, life insurance he sells, health insurance he sells, all the insurances.
00:12:53.220
I know, and his, and his crazy wife, who's my crazy sister-in-law.
00:12:56.020
So, me and Josh are in the trenches every day with our kids.
00:12:59.440
But, you know, we've been talking about this life insurance policy that he does,
00:13:03.540
that you can actually get your life insurance while you're still alive, which is amazing.
00:13:08.080
People are going crazy for it, but I want to say, you've got to get this now.
00:13:12.900
It's not something you can come in at 80 years old and just get on.
00:13:15.520
And you also have to have a qualifying life event.
00:13:19.420
Life event, meaning like you have to, you know, get sick.
00:13:25.820
Oh, you want to be able to access when you need it.
00:13:29.160
So it's still a life insurance policy that's going to be left to your family if you die.
00:13:32.060
But let's say you get terminal illness and you need life-saving medical equipment.
00:13:39.140
So it's an amazing product, but I just want to be really clear because a lot of people are calling in and they're like,
00:13:47.620
And again, you've got to do life insurance regardless if you do this.
00:13:51.280
This is just an extra added bonus that if a qualifying life event happens, you can do it.
00:13:59.680
Call Josh by going to republiclifenow.com and tell him to make me a stink.
00:14:04.980
You know, to subtly be, um, uh, uh, uh, what's the word, um,
00:14:19.660
No, when they're trying to seduce, subtly seduced into a, uh, uh, subtly being Islamicized.
00:14:32.320
That's what I see, which is like the UN Agenda 30s one world religion, which is Chrislam.
00:14:39.460
So they're being Chrislamicized and Chrislam is the, you know, one world religion that big money, big power likes because it's also, though, horrifically, the destruction of Christianity, the teachings of Jesus and Judaism.
00:14:57.780
And it's like a whole new thing pioneered in Jeremiah Wright's church where, you know, they just are making up a whole, a whole new thing where, uh, American youth subtly being seduced into, um, uh, wanted to bring many more dearborns here.
00:15:20.400
And ultimately a caliphate, and that's how I see it, and it has paid ops that continually blame Israel, our ally of 30 years, and the, this country that we get our intelligence about the Middle East from, whether, you know, and of course it has rogue, bad people in it too, just like our CIA does.
00:15:44.980
But ultimately, that's where we get, you know, in our intelligence for, around the world.
00:15:52.760
And, uh, you know, they're on the wrong side, and I think that it is the destruction of America's soul, and I'm horrified by it.
00:16:03.420
You know, there are so many dimensions to this.
00:16:06.960
The, um, I mean, first of all, the, the case for Israel is a biblical case.
00:16:13.860
It is a, uh, moral case, by which I mean it's the root of Western civilization, Athens, and Jerusalem.
00:16:23.460
Uh, when I've debated this issue, I start with the practical case.
00:16:26.800
I basically go, look, you know, we give $3.8 billion to Israel.
00:16:30.260
Frankly, much of that ends up in the pockets of the defense contractors.
00:16:33.360
But more importantly, I don't know a better return on investment than that pittance of a money.
00:16:39.920
You know, we give money all over the world, and people twiddle their thumbs, or they turn around and insult them.
00:16:45.820
Uh, with Israel, we have a country on the front line that actually knows how to fight radical Islam, and is doing it.
00:16:52.800
America, I have to say, just based upon close spectatorial experience of the last 25 years, we do not know how to fight radical Islam.
00:17:03.840
He pulls the Persian rug out from under the Shah.
00:17:11.480
Then after 9-11, we go over there with big, you know, pomp and circumstance, shock and awe.
00:17:24.340
And then, of course, Iraq is a big mess we don't have to go into.
00:17:28.640
And for 3.8 billion, you've got these, like, super sleuths on the ground, you know.
00:17:41.920
If our CIA did it, I would be beyond shocked because they don't know how to do it.
00:17:48.600
And then you have this cabal of people in this country who basically point the finger at Israel
00:18:00.040
Because I think in the real world, you don't get to choose between, like, the good guy and
00:18:07.560
And the choice right now is basically it's either Israel or it's radical Islam.
00:18:11.540
And let's look at it from the radical Muslim point of view.
00:18:16.480
So they actually understand how this all stacks up.
00:18:22.720
And, I mean, I was just looking at the Internet.
00:18:26.700
I'm like, my God, they have totally censored any kind of sane opinion on the, any kind of
00:18:32.220
sane opinion about what's really going on in the Middle East, specifically Israel, what
00:18:37.800
They have censored anything sane about Israel on all, almost all fronts, on YouTube, on
00:18:47.400
It's all just, it just puked anti-Semitism everywhere.
00:18:57.080
And they're all going to be like, you know, listening to Candace and Nick Fuentes and Tucker
00:19:04.120
And I imagine Charlie Kirk was really bothered by that.
00:19:08.300
I imagine he felt, they say, oh, he felt pressured by Israel.
00:19:11.960
But he didn't have a lot of Jewish donors at all.
00:19:15.900
And I think that he was feeling pressured by those people's rising numbers.
00:19:23.180
And, you know, Charlie's donors are, look, in any organization that is a youth organization,
00:19:28.680
you have a constituency, which is young people, and you're going to get money from older people.
00:19:34.640
So the older people are going to represent the mainstream of the Republican Party, which
00:19:41.320
This may have a subset of Jews in it, but it's not primarily Jews.
00:19:45.320
It's basically rich people of an older generation who believe in the Reaganite tradition that
00:19:52.540
So, yes, it's not the first time in the history of nonprofits that you got, you know, a guy
00:19:57.380
navigating between a younger constituency that's, as you say, being kind of seduced or tempted
00:20:05.180
And then his money is coming from basically pro-Israel people.
00:20:12.280
When I was at AEI, you know, you'd have all these corporations that were giving us money.
00:20:17.080
And then the AEI economists who are free market guys would say, listen, we're against government
00:20:25.800
And all these companies would be like, wait a minute, we want subsidies for us.
00:20:29.420
You know, and so tension between, you know, our free market constituency, that's why we
00:20:35.280
And, of course, the donors who are corporate and generally support free markets.
00:20:39.840
But on the other hand, if they can get something from the government, they're only too happy
00:20:44.680
So I think this is this was Charlie's predicament.
00:20:47.760
But to go from that, which is a completely normal situation that he was trying to navigate
00:20:52.120
to somehow, you know, there was like, take a look at this picture, guys.
00:20:57.960
Here is a pipe that can be seen in the in the video of Charlie's assassination.
00:21:02.540
I think there was like a Mossad guy who came out of that pipe.
00:21:07.060
I mean, this kind of stuff is so idiotic and and bad for our side.
00:21:18.780
But aren't there donors that pulled out because of Tucker Carlson before the assassination of
00:21:24.660
I mean, I was telling you just before we got started that I know one of them, probably
00:21:35.040
And I think what it was is that at the beginning, he saw that, look, you know, Tucker's got a
00:21:41.820
A lot of Tucker's admirers became admirers not because of the anti-Semitism, not because of
00:21:52.380
He was the like ultimate like poster boy of political incorrectness.
00:22:04.080
So so, yes, the Charlie had a donor problem prior to all that.
00:22:12.020
And because a lot of his donors did not like Tucker Carlson.
00:22:17.040
Well, they also didn't like the degree of prominence.
00:22:20.540
Like they noticed that even after all this, even after Charlie had heard from like 30
00:22:28.380
Like who's the keynote speaker at their upcoming like December conference?
00:22:35.460
I mean, it's not easy to get that speaking slot.
00:22:37.860
So so I think this is symbolic of a problem in the Republican Party and and one that has
00:22:47.380
Now, I think with the problem with it a little bit is this.
00:22:50.320
And that is that Tucker is the man who, quote, asks questions.
00:22:55.380
That's how he he says, I'm not I'm not taking a position.
00:22:58.940
Because Candace takes the I would call it and all of this is slightly comedic, but in
00:23:05.720
She's always conducting a personal investigation.
00:23:11.180
I want to recruit you, my audience to be journalists.
00:23:15.160
We're going to get to the truth of truth of the matter.
00:23:18.500
Now, all of this has a kind of respectable patina.
00:23:23.880
It's a veneer because, first of all, this journalism never produces anything.
00:23:30.800
It actually never produces an incontestable fact where all of us can look at it and go,
00:23:41.960
It's always some extremely wacky theory that never goes anywhere and is replaced by another
00:23:49.600
So this is the surreal world we are moving into.
00:23:56.140
In a way, it embarrasses me because most of the people.
00:23:57.940
I want to ask, I want to do a citizen inquiry into the one thing Candace will never do,
00:24:05.000
and that's the Catholic Church and its horrible record on child molestation and trafficking.
00:24:17.260
But I plan to do that and why she apologizes for all that and hides it.
00:24:21.380
Well, the other thing about the church that has been very disturbing is the way in which,
00:24:27.660
well, the Catholic Church was hit with a lot of lawsuits.
00:24:30.520
They, I think, were facing in certain areas major bankruptcy.
00:24:33.700
But then they discovered almost like a business, like another source of revenue, illegals, right?
00:24:41.140
Because you can set up shop on the border as the group that navigates these massive caravans
00:24:48.200
that come, you know, 2,000 miles and arrive at the U.S. border.
00:24:51.960
Catholic Charities basically became like an unbelievably lucrative revenue operation.
00:24:59.020
And funded, by the way, not just by, funded by U.S. taxpayers indirectly, funded by NGOs,
00:25:12.260
When I started my career, I was myself like a young Charlie Kirk, right?
00:25:20.600
And so I lived that life of three days, four days a week, going from one campus to the other,
00:25:30.040
I don't think I genuinely worried about getting shot.
00:25:33.460
At the most, I thought some guy will rush the stage and be intercepted by some overweight
00:25:43.340
But I've tried to be an iconoclast asking questions.
00:25:46.800
But you have to ask questions in the right way.
00:25:52.040
You're not asking questions to poison the well.
00:25:55.600
And so when you have a guy who's asking questions like this, all right, well, you know, I just
00:26:00.620
wonder whether we might have been better to ally with, you know, Hitler in World War II
00:26:12.860
And then, of course, you'll hear something like, you know, well, I'm not the only guy
00:26:19.520
After the war, Patton said, having won the war and vanquished the Nazis, maybe we're going
00:26:26.940
And maybe we should march all our way to Moscow.
00:26:31.940
And so but for young people who are amnesiac and don't know the nuances of all this, they
00:26:38.960
So I think that these this kind of asking of questions is not as it needs to be a search
00:26:57.980
The other thing that's going on, you know, you've heard about this is this whole notion.
00:27:02.420
And here I'm going to go a little bit into sort of the Christianity a little bit.
00:27:09.500
So Jeremiah Wright, the whole leftist thing all the way.
00:27:18.760
But but let's look at it for how this Replacement Theology is just from the Christian point of
00:27:27.500
Because and I'm not coming at it from the point of view of like a Protestant dispensationalist.
00:27:35.640
Lewis mode is like what he calls mere Christianity, which is the very mainstream, the basics of
00:27:42.540
And so in the mainstream of Christianity, we learn that the New Testament is in the old
00:27:47.740
concealed and the Old Testament is in the new revealed.
00:27:51.200
In other words, the Old Testament and the new, the Hebrew scriptures and the Christian
00:27:57.340
How much time do you spend every day on a web browser?
00:28:00.760
How much time do you spend clicking around online, searching, scrolling, typing, endless
00:28:06.180
Well, OK, there's a new AI web browser from Perplexity called Comet.
00:28:12.620
It is completely changing the way you're able to interact with your browser.
00:28:16.480
Using Comet feels like having a personal assistant living in your web browser that can actually
00:28:22.840
Yeah, do stuff, not just give you answers because it's a web browser.
00:28:27.800
Comet can use all the accounts you're already logged into to take action across the web.
00:28:40.020
What it should do is not satanic where it actually does tasks for you in the background.
00:28:44.620
It's an assistant that lives in your computer and it's pretty crazy.
00:28:46.680
So you just go on this browser and you type stuff up.
00:28:48.460
Your browser turns blue and it does everything.
00:28:51.400
Well, what it does is compile and synthesize information.
00:28:54.960
You give it a directive and it uses whatever you have on your computer that's open.
00:28:58.400
So for instance, if I say we want to cook chicken piccata tonight, you and me, right?
00:29:03.220
I can say, give me the recipe for chicken piccata, then go into my Instacart, order said ingredients,
00:29:08.680
deliver it to my house, email all my family in the area that dinner's at 7 tonight, click,
00:29:13.340
go shower, go what you want, go mow the yard, and everyone will show up with your ingredients

00:29:45.460
In fact, in Islam, as you know, there's a doctrine of abrogation, which is that like later verses
00:29:50.200
cancel out the earlier verses, you know, and so, but nothing like that in Christianity.
00:29:54.980
In Christianity, the Christians are engrafted into the Jewish root and they become, you could
00:30:08.300
But there is no question that somehow trying to cut off the Old Testament and push it away.
00:30:14.760
And some of these Christians are like, yeah, but Jesus, but Jesus.
00:30:17.340
Well, in Christian theology, there are three persons and one God, right?
00:30:31.800
I mean, if you tell this to the Pope, he would have a heart attack.
00:30:34.940
Well, maybe not the new Pope, but the old Pope.
00:30:36.720
Well, look, I mean, I like what I think it was, I don't remember if it was Benedict or
00:30:42.960
He said, listen, it is the holy land for everybody, but it is the promised land to the Jews.
00:31:05.500
That's why we say they're actually all Zionists.
00:31:13.360
Christians, Islam, they all have a claim to that land, and they're all fighting for it.
00:31:20.440
I mean, the Christians aren't trying to take the land politically, right?
00:31:23.200
The Muslims want the physical control of the land.
00:31:31.760
And look, so when we embarked on this film, quite honestly, we knew about October 7th.
00:31:40.580
We were entranced by Jonathan Cahn's introduction of elements of biblical prophecy, the Book of
00:31:48.560
In fact, the title, The Dragon's Prophecy, comes out of a passage where the dragon, which
00:31:53.080
is Satan, is at war with a woman representing Israel.
00:31:56.980
And so, that's a kind of an image or metaphor for what's going on.
00:32:01.560
But we didn't know that we would be facing these powerful currents, not only from the
00:32:08.140
left, but from the right, that seek to delegitimize Israel and, in effect, help radical Islam.
00:32:15.260
Now, I know why the left wants to help radical Islam.
00:32:19.460
Well, I don't know entirely, because, of course, think of how, what strange bedfellows those
00:32:26.980
The LGBTQ people wouldn't survive very well under Sharia.
00:32:33.520
Oh, my sister calls, she's gay, but she calls them rooftoppers.
00:32:45.780
They're so severely brainwashed that they're actually working a lemming program of their
00:33:01.020
The left doesn't know what it's doing, but the Muslims do.
00:33:03.760
So, the left thinks, listen, we got all these ethnic groups.
00:33:07.000
They all, you know, these people identify as black, and these people identify as LGBTQ,
00:33:11.240
and these people identify as feminists, and hey, these people identify as radical Muslims.
00:33:18.480
Of course, from the radical Muslim point of view, it's like, listen, we are outsiders
00:33:23.220
We need someone to give us passports so we can kind of get in.
00:33:30.880
Someone needs to run cover for us when we do bad stuff and defend us in the name of free
00:33:40.720
Use all your freedoms, all Christian democracy's freedoms against them, and then get a Dearborn
00:33:47.700
right in the heart of it, you know, and then the mayor of Dearborn says last week, no Christians
00:33:56.340
He said no Christians are allowed here, and they want a Dearborn in every state, and that's
00:34:08.300
Israel is a, you know, it's so brilliant how they've done it, and now they have to do it
00:34:15.080
on the right because they already got the whole left working for them, and now they're going
00:34:20.000
to get the right working for them, you know, and it's an exchange of money because none
00:34:25.280
of them would do it for free because they're all hucksters and grifters, and they'll do
00:34:39.180
Well, what happened was Nick Fuentes is parading himself around, and he's basically going,
00:34:57.040
He didn't look good, let's put it this way, because, of course, the guy, his scope of
00:35:03.820
So he'd say things like, regime change is always a bad idea, Dinesh.
00:35:07.480
And I'd go, well, Nick, off the top of my head, I can give you 25 examples of where regime
00:35:15.820
And then you can just look in the video, and I had to look at it later.
00:35:18.460
If you look at his face, he's like, why did I get into this?
00:35:21.420
And then, of course, his young audience is like, who the hell is this young?
00:35:26.380
Because Nick was like their little King Arthur, Sir Galahad, and they're not used to seeing
00:35:38.700
But he claims, and this is part of his so-called witty shtick, he goes, well, I'm the intelligent
00:35:51.420
I was actually a regular speaker at her Blexit events, because a lot of her Blexit stuff
00:35:55.820
came out of films I did, like Hillary's America, which kind of exposed the secret history of
00:36:04.320
I'd go to her events, but of course, that was a different Candace.
00:36:16.360
I know that she has always wanted to be a cultural icon.
00:36:19.520
She, even more than a political icon, she was, it's like politics is a stepping stone
00:36:30.480
And I think she realized that this creates an electric cord with an audience that might
00:36:45.440
Hard for me to see someone just doing it for the money.
00:36:55.980
Well, you know what I think about Tucker, because he was a friend or I, I still tell him he's
00:37:01.320
a friend and I'm trying to save his soul from going straight to hell and burning there for
00:37:05.660
time and all eternity in a lake of fire being, you know, anally raped by Satan every single
00:37:12.720
But, um, you know, but, you know, cause I still have feelings of love for him, but, uh, you
00:37:19.560
know, Tucker, I told him, you know, when you got attacked by that demon, you know, it took
00:37:27.880
And that demon, I know its name and I can help you.
00:37:47.640
And, and, and, you know, Tucker does sound like he's talking out of his ass.
00:37:52.140
I've heard from so many people who experienced post-COVID VAC side effects, some in my family,
00:38:01.060
One woman told me that after getting the jab and then a booster, she was never the same.
00:38:06.080
She said her whole body felt like it was burning from the inside out and she couldn't eat.
00:38:11.820
She was exhausted and in pain and no one in the medical system had any answers for her.
00:38:17.060
Stories like that show just how isolating, how scary it can be, which is why I want to
00:38:22.840
tell you about the Wellness Company's Ultimate Spike Detox.
00:38:28.520

00:39:10.460
That demon did take him and all that demon does is curse Israel.
00:39:19.140
You know, 10 years ago, the idea that, you know, a guy like Tucker would be sort of possessed
00:39:25.360
by a demon, which seemed to me so far-fetched, I wouldn't even know what to say about it.
00:39:28.720
But as you know, the central theme of the dragon's prophecy is that there is a world behind the
00:39:37.460
And that there is a cosmic battle that is going on between God and Satan.
00:39:43.920
It says in Torah that God created this world, that it would be the place where the war between
00:39:52.020
And it was to judge your soul, which way are you going to go?
00:39:55.380
And that's exactly what's happening as I see it.
00:40:01.680
You see people fall right before your eyes on TV every day.
00:40:06.160
And we're supposed to, the reason, Jew, where it says, you know, where it says the chosen
00:40:11.440
and all that stuff that everybody doesn't know anything about, what that means is chosen
00:40:17.040
Chosen to witness how Torah unfolds in the world and how it comes true.
00:40:23.580
And that's what, that's what the dragon's prophecy is about too.
00:40:27.720
Seeing how the word happens and how it manifests in the world.
00:40:32.800
And you see people fall off and they go the way of death.
00:40:41.500
And I always tell people, your job is to witness.
00:40:47.180
They go, la-di-da, I wonder what the Queen of England's up to.
00:40:50.400
Or, you know, how big Kim Kardashian's butt got this week.
00:40:54.580
They're not witnessing what's right in front of them.
00:40:59.540
I mean, they're undoing themselves on television in front of us every day.
00:41:03.560
Comey, we've waited all these years for, you know, the people who betrayed our country
00:41:10.040
and overthrew the, you know, the Republic of the United States of America
00:41:15.880
and took so many years to do it are coming to judgment now.
00:41:21.220
We're seeing it and that we're not witnessing it.
00:41:24.340
And the people who know are BS-ing us about how it's all Trump's fault.
00:41:30.760
On Jimmy Kimmel's show, saying, oh, Trump, you know, telling us it's Israel, it's Trump.
00:41:37.100
You know, because they don't want us to witness what's right before our eyes
00:41:42.800
I mean, I'm watching MSNBC and they keep using two words, retribution and vengeance.
00:41:50.820
Now, first of all, I am a strong believer that retribution is the very essence of justice.
00:41:57.040
And what I mean by that is all justice is based on retribution, right?
00:42:04.500
And not only that, but rival theories of justice make no sense.
00:42:09.500
Sometimes people say, well, the next justice is really based on deterrence.
00:42:13.000
Well, deterrence has nothing to do with the perpetrator or the victim.
00:42:16.400
Deterrence means let's calibrate the punishment.
00:42:19.080
So some third guy uninvolved in the situation is going to have his motive structured, right?
00:42:24.100
So he will or will not be more likely to do it.
00:42:26.480
But that's nothing to do with the justice of the situation itself.
00:42:29.920
And the other thing is these guys keep talking about retribution and vengeance.
00:42:32.980
And I'm thinking to myself, retribution for what?
00:42:36.060
What did you do to this guy that makes him want to be in a mood of retribution?
00:42:40.200
Yeah, they always erase the agent and the crime.
00:42:45.920
You know, they do a switch like when you turn the...
00:42:51.100
Yeah, but you know, you've got the sand that runs through...
00:43:02.320
I think this is the essence because the essence of evil is not the opposite of good.
00:43:08.360
The essence of evil is the inversion where good becomes evil, evil becomes good.
00:43:15.080
If you can pull that off, now you're like an A student of Satan.
00:43:24.040
I think the thing is that Satan is not strong enough to defeat God, right?
00:43:34.800
And his idea is if I can ruin them, I get the last laugh.
00:43:38.760
I still don't win, but at least I get a major chuckle on God.
00:43:43.600
So the whole meaning of Genesis 1, to me, the story of the garden, Adam and Eve, is exactly that.
00:43:49.860
Satan targets God's beloved creation, which is man.
00:43:54.040
I think for the exact same reason, Satan targets the Jews.
00:44:01.120
Let's take their holy temple that Solomon built, was rebuilt by Herod.
00:44:05.600
Let's go stick the Al-Aqsa Mosque and the Dome of the Rock on top as a victory arch.
00:44:10.220
And let's see if we can push the Jews out from the river to the sea.
00:44:14.480
Because God said, I give you the land between the river and the sea.
00:44:18.680
And so why the secular, godless, leftist for this is one thing.
00:44:23.440
But to see people in the name of Christianity, in the name of the good, the true, and the beautiful,
00:44:30.520
signing up for this, this is the real scandal right now.
00:44:41.180
And, you know, I'm terrified of that because I love America.
00:44:45.080
And I don't want to see that happen like it happened to every other nation that did that.
00:44:55.660
Israel will merely pivot to India and make it the technological giant of the world.
00:45:02.300
Well, first of all, Israel's in the Bible and America isn't.
00:45:05.500
So what that tells you right away is that to the degree you accept the Bible or believe it,
00:45:10.480
it is a, there's an unfolding of events and Israel is at the center of it.
00:45:14.900
The United States' position is going to be judged by which side we take.
00:45:20.680
Now, we know that the architecture of this country, going back to the founders and long
00:45:25.360
before, they didn't come to this country empty-handed.
00:45:32.480
Socrates, it's philosophy, it's the Greek theater, it's democracy, Pericles.
00:45:37.100
But Jerusalem is the controversial part because Jerusalem is based upon this astounding idea
00:45:44.460
And I think the Bible, to me, is a fascinating document because it doesn't prove anything.
00:45:50.060
In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.
00:45:52.180
And I remember when I was reading this and, you know, reading it as a young adult, like
00:46:01.180
It doesn't say in the beginning, I created the heavens and the earth.
00:46:03.700
So there is a witness, to use your word, a witness to these events.
00:46:09.140
And on what basis are you supposed to like accept it or believe it?
00:46:13.240
This is where I think the archaeology stuff is so fascinating because for centuries, I mean,
00:46:17.860
if you go back to 1985 and someone were to say to you, prove to me definitively not using
00:46:23.800
the Bible that there was a King David, you couldn't do it.
00:46:29.660
Jeremiah, Isaiah, and not only that, minor figures in the Bible.
00:46:34.360
I'll just give one example because this, to me, is so interesting.
00:46:38.020
In about the 6th or 7th century BC, you have the prophet Jeremiah and he's out on the streets.
00:46:43.260
He's railing against the king, a guy named Zedekiah.
00:46:45.580
And Jeremiah basically goes, you better straighten up because otherwise the kingdom from the north,
00:46:55.900
So the king doesn't believe it, but he's nervous with this guy Jeremiah.
00:47:03.100
One is Gedaliah, son of Pashur, and the other is Jehukal, son of Shalamiah.
00:47:10.280
Minor figures in the Bible, barely mentioned in the Hebrew scriptures.
00:47:15.300
Make sure he's not causing me too much trouble.
00:47:17.780
Fast forward 2,500 years and recently they're digging in the city of David and they find
00:47:23.340
51 seals out of the ground, clay seals that are used to seal documents.
00:47:29.020
The documents are lost, but the seals are preserved.
00:47:31.940
And one of the seals, Jehukal, son of Shalamiah.
00:47:40.220
Suddenly, like out of the Bible, jump these two guys into the face of history.
00:47:46.740
And suddenly you realize there really was a Jehukal.
00:47:55.120
And all these events, you can disagree with the theology.
00:47:59.520
But the fact of the matter is the historicity of the Bible is being proved every day.
00:48:05.280
Well, that's why they put the Golden Dome on top, because what's underneath that proves
00:48:16.420
But, you know, something will happen and, you know, God's got it all figured out how the
00:48:28.820
Well, I've thought for a long time, because, you know, I studied deep Torah.
00:48:49.140
But, you know, about all five, I don't know how long ago, because time doesn't work for
00:48:55.560
But I just said, there's going to be a big earthquake in Jerusalem.
00:49:01.720
And then, so I was studying the Star of Jacob that came Friday night, and my mom saw it.
00:49:18.500
And so, you know, and it's Atlas III, I-II, and all that stuff with the seven comets coming.
00:49:25.180
Some say the Star of Bethlehem returning, all this stuff.
00:49:29.040
But it also, because when the UN, when all those nations voted for the Palestinian state,
00:49:37.740
you know, on target, that was the kickoff of Gog and Magog.
00:49:47.940
So, it says that after, and also, in Zohar, it predicts that comet to the day, the 27th.
00:50:02.640
So, it says that after the Star of Jacob, after Gog and Magog, comes the Star of Jacob.
00:50:09.380
And 70 days after that, we'll find out if I'm right.
00:50:16.660
And I went, wow, there's another thing that I thought.
00:50:25.840
Okay, so it says 70 days after Gog and Magog's onset and the Star of Jacob comes, 70 days
00:50:34.800
after that comes, a major earthquake in Jerusalem.
00:50:45.100
Well, you know, this is how the future connects weirdly with the past, because there is currently
00:50:50.460
a debate between two groups of scholars about the location of Sodom and Gomorrah.
00:51:10.120
So, Sodom historically was believed to be at the southern end of the Dead Sea, on the Jordan
00:51:19.660
That's where Albright, one of the founders of biblical archaeology, thought it was.
00:51:23.940
And that place was destroyed by a massive earthquake at right about the right time.
00:51:33.220
This is a fascinating element of biblical archaeology.
00:51:35.380
Another group of archaeologists said, the site cannot be there, because in the Bible
00:51:41.780
it says that Abraham and Lot were standing on a mountain, and they decided, you know,
00:51:47.540
one of you go this direction, the other go that direction.
00:51:50.240
And it says, and Lot looked toward the Jordan Valley, right?
00:51:54.740
And he saw that it was very fertile, and then he moved in that direction, quote, as far
00:52:00.500
So, according to these biblical archaeologists, they're like, you can't see the southern end
00:52:06.740
What you can see is the northern end of the Dead Sea, and so Sodom, if the Bible is right,
00:52:14.180
Sure enough, as they dig, they find ashes, people blown to smithereens.
00:52:18.740
Now, interestingly, that destruction, which also happens at the same time...
00:52:26.120
But in the case of the northern location, seemingly by some sort of a meteoric blast, where the
00:52:33.480
meteor disintegrated in the sky, and essentially everything was obliterated completely into
00:52:41.860
So, the key to the biblical archaeology is not the Bible says it, therefore it has to
00:52:47.000
It's the Bible says it, so let's go and take a look.
00:52:49.580
It's a beautiful marriage of sort of theology and science.
00:52:56.740
And that's why, when I came across it, Debbie and I were looking at each other, we're like,
00:53:00.280
why isn't this being shouted from the rooftops of every synagogue and church?
00:53:04.200
Because we're not, you know, young people are trained in the language of history and
00:53:10.260
And I feel that almost as if, as the world has become more secular, as the world has
00:53:14.600
pulled away from God, it's like God is like, all right, I'm going to send you a message,
00:53:18.600
but I'm going to send it to you in your modern secular language through science, and you're
00:53:24.020
going to be looking at seals and stones and tablets, and you're not going to know what
00:53:28.200
to do with it, because all this stuff that you thought was mythical, you know, you have
00:53:32.680
these literary critics in the 19th century sitting around going, the Bible was written
00:53:36.540
hundreds of years later by people who made half the stuff up.
00:53:42.040
If you lived 300 years after King Zedekiah, would you have known the names of these two
00:53:52.440
It had to have, the information had to have come by someone very close to those events,
00:53:56.920
and this can be said of the entire Hebrew, and I would add Christian scriptures.
00:54:03.080
I would say every modern scientific discovery and archaeological discovery only proves the
00:54:08.360
existence of the truth in the Bible and of God.
00:54:11.580
So the skeptics now are reduced to, well, we still haven't found Noah's Ark.
00:54:18.600
Okay, granted, we haven't found certain things, but let's ask this question.
00:54:23.120
Can you cite, and I do this in the film, to an old guy who's been doing archaeology for
00:54:28.940
40 years in Israel, I go, can you name a single archaeological finding that disputes
00:54:41.400
So this alone is very telling, because applying the old idea of the philosopher Karl Popper,
00:54:50.940
If you haven't found Noah's Ark, well, keep looking.
00:54:58.940
But if you can find something where the Bible says X, and you can now prove Y, well, then
00:55:08.720
Well, you know, in deep teachings, it says that, you know, the messianic, you know, the
00:55:16.760
messianic times will be where it all goes together, where God is proven by science, and science
00:55:26.520
But, you know, like, I can't remember who says it, but that hell is the place where there
00:55:37.920
But all of our stuff is going to come together, where science and the belief in God are going
00:55:49.260
That's what I think is our next, I hate to say evolution, but growth, acknowledgement,
00:56:08.220
So, you know, I think we're at a moment now, much more than I've seen in my lifetime, where
00:56:14.480
the political, the cultural, the moral, the spiritual, all these rivers are intersecting.
00:56:21.600
And we sort of now have to look at the events in front of us through all these prisms.
00:56:31.620
You know, people have been trying to solve the Middle East politically for 50 years or more.
00:56:36.640
I remember when I first came to America, there was a Carter peace plan, and there was a Reagan
00:56:40.760
plan, the Clinton plan, the Obama, of course, we know about Obama.
00:56:47.680
If they would just shut up and let God fix it, it'd get fixed real quick.
00:56:53.200
But, you know, the people that are in the way, the fixers, you know, they're not, they
00:56:58.460
don't have the right mentality or heart to fix nothing because they're just in there
00:57:05.340
So if people of God got together and just prayed together and let things alone, I think
00:57:14.340
I think also I'm finding on social media these days, like, the depth of ignorance is very
00:57:23.940
So people say, like, the Jews don't really belong in that land, but you know what?
00:57:37.420
And granted, there is this kind of onomatological or name similarity between the Philistines and
00:57:47.560
So the Philistines were called the Sea Peoples.
00:57:57.940
Palestinians are just Arabs who essentially either colonized or infiltrated that land,
00:58:07.840
Recently, when I did a conversation in Jerusalem a few weeks ago with Moab Hassan Youssef, the
00:58:16.020
I love the fact that he's like, Dinesh, he's like, there's no such thing as a Palestinian.
00:58:30.900
I mean, as you know, as well as anyone else, but maybe the audience doesn't all know,
00:58:34.980
the name Palestine was inflicted on the Jews by the Romans as a punishment.
00:58:45.680
Let's take the name of your ancient enemy, Philistine, and we're going to rename your
00:58:52.820
That's how we get Palestine until the Egyptian Yasser Arafat goes, nice name.
00:58:58.120
I think we're going to call ourselves Palestinians.
00:59:00.020
Well, he got it from the Mufti of Jerusalem, who was Hitler's friend.
00:59:14.120
And, you know, they invented this whole way to rid not only, they wanted to chase all
00:59:23.120
the Jews from Europe to the Middle East and kill them there.
00:59:29.420
And the Arabs fought for Germany in the Middle East.
00:59:35.200
But Glenn Beck, he has a museum and he has the uniform of the Arabs who fought for the
00:59:50.940
But, you know, that's what jihad is, is the Third Reich.
00:59:57.240
One of our decisions in this film is, how do we start the film?
01:00:03.160
And I'm like, well, if you're making a movie about World War II and the Pacific War, you
01:00:10.900
And I think the most significant thing about October 7th is that it was filmed by Hamas.
01:00:17.440
We make the point in the film that even the Nazis did not parade their atrocities in Germany.
01:00:24.680
And they put all the death camps in Poland in occupied territories, whereas Hamas was
01:00:32.000
And so the eerie feeling of watching the film when you start it is you're seeing it, but
01:00:37.260
you're not seeing it from the point of view of the victims.
01:00:39.000
Normally, if you're showing a home invasion, it's the people in the house, but you're seeing
01:00:45.200
It's almost like you have a GoPro and you're riding into Israel with Hamas.
01:00:50.880
And I also think what's really eerie is we were in like Nahalaz, the kibbutz.
01:00:56.800
So we're talking to Lishai Maran, whose husband is a hostage.
01:01:01.860
In fact, I just saw it on social media just minutes ago before we started talking that Hamas
01:01:08.740
is now claiming they can't find him, that he's, quote, disappeared.
01:01:13.780
But we're talking to Lishai and we're standing like 700 yards from the Gaza border.
01:01:19.020
You can actually hear bombs, machine gun fire going off in the background.
01:01:22.860
And, you know, Lishai is talking about what happened on that day, how these guys came through
01:01:29.260
She and her husband and their two children ran into the safe room.
01:01:33.540
So the terrorists go next door and there's a teenage boy over there.
01:01:37.460
They grab him and they bring him over and they tell him, listen.
01:01:41.080
So the teenage boy knocks on the door and says, please open the door because if you don't
01:01:44.600
open the door, they're going to kill me and then they're going to kill you.
01:01:48.840
But as we're talking and all of this is in the film, Debbie says, we actually have that
01:01:55.520
In other words, from all the live streaming that Hamas did while Lishai is talking, it's
01:02:04.000
You can actually see the people coming in the window.
01:02:10.320
And this to me is the essence of good filmmaking.
01:02:12.380
In my earlier 2000 mules, I wanted to show the 2020 election fraud by putting you on the
01:02:21.000
Here's a guy pulling up in a car in the middle of the night.
01:02:23.160
He looks left and right to make sure no one sees him.
01:02:30.460
I want people to at least to a limited degree experience October 7th.
01:02:35.580
And that's why we've got like, we have a little bit of a graphic warning and it is a little
01:02:44.260
It's essential for a right understanding of what's going on.
01:02:49.920
And, you know, when Israel wanted to enter it into a Canadian film festival, they wouldn't
01:02:56.220
allow them to because they said they didn't get this for satanic.
01:03:07.020
Have you guys got permission from Hamas to use this footage?
01:03:10.640
And so Israel said, no, we don't have permission from Hamas.
01:03:14.520
Well, then we'll have to expel you from the film festival because the footage belongs to
01:03:21.720
So that's like putting, if, if Ted Bundy had filmed all of his murders and, you know,
01:03:28.860
dismemberments of these women, that's like they would put that film out and people would
01:03:38.160
If that isn't some satanic mind control, I don't know what is.
01:03:43.060
It's to get people to identify with the aggressor and the murderer.
01:03:47.860
I mean, I'm not saying that, I'm just saying, and that's what happened because people saw the
01:04:02.340
They saw her broken in half and the, and the day after worldwide, it popped up with
01:04:10.840
tents, with the same signs on October 8th, worldwide.
01:04:15.900
Like does a grassroots movement, uh, pop up overnight worldwide, uh, with the same signs,
01:04:26.840
Does that happen or was that planned for a really long time?
01:04:30.220
And it was, and they're cheering for murder and rape.
01:04:36.300
And Israel becomes the only, the raped Israelis become the only women on earth who are denied
01:04:44.860
the ability to name their rapists under international law.
01:04:50.320
I mean, if this isn't satanic, I don't know what is.
01:04:53.700
Well, I think it also helps to italicize the true test of antisemitism.
01:05:01.140
I say this because, as you know, a lot of young people have become a little like, uh,
01:05:04.560
resistant, like, because they think that if you say antisemite, you're trying to shut them
01:05:10.700
Hey, I refuse to be silenced, blah, blah, blah.
01:05:12.820
I can, and I'm allowed to criticize the, uh, Israeli government by saying women, these Israeli
01:05:22.960
Well, I'm sorry, but that isn't criticizing the Israeli government.
01:05:29.100
So the standard, I think this is a, ties right into what you were saying is, look, if you are
01:05:35.560
applying a different standard to the Jews and to Israel than you apply to anyone else,
01:05:40.900
then boom, your motives are suspect right there.
01:05:45.780
Uh, nobody denies that when the Japanese came and pulverized Pearl Harbor, the United
01:05:51.840
States was A, correct to be outraged, B, correct to declare war on Japan.
01:05:57.760
You can debate whether the atomic bomb should have been dropped, but even the people who say
01:06:01.520
the atomic bombs should not have been dropped agree that a U.S. land invasion of Japan, which
01:06:06.640
was the alternative, should, would have been legitimate.
01:06:09.400
So no one said things like, well, let's count the number of civilians who were killed at
01:06:14.280
Pearl Harbor and then let's limit U.S. retaliation to exactly that number.
01:06:19.100
And if the U.S. goes above that number, it is, this is a moral horror and the United States
01:06:24.140
now becomes the villain and Japan becomes the victim.
01:06:27.160
No one takes this position, but they take the position on October 7th.
01:06:32.120
So, that tells me something's up because suddenly the standard, or, or even apply the same logic
01:06:40.680
If, if, if, if I'm in my house with my family, we're all eating dinner and some home invaders
01:06:46.460
They like start firing shots, they kill my wife, they, they, they rape my daughter, they
01:06:56.380
They go into a car or a van, they come out, they've got their own kids and they grab their
01:07:02.600
And they go, you can't shoot because you're not allowed to shoot civilians.
01:07:08.420
Most people would say they are the ones putting their own kids in danger.
01:07:18.580
It's their job to put their kids to the side and, and, and face you straight out.
01:07:23.140
So, this is such a, a miniature replication of what's going on with Hamas and the idea
01:07:29.020
that you could blame the victim of the home invasion, in this case, Israel, is just morally
01:07:44.660
Did you feed the people that are holding your hostages and keeping the war going?
01:07:49.140
Are you, are you giving them enough food every day?
01:07:52.040
Let me give, let me, I was watching, Debbie and I watching, this is about a year ago, Netflix
01:07:55.760
had a very interesting documentary in World War II.
01:08:03.200
And, and I will never forget this conversation with one of the bombing commanders.
01:08:06.720
He said he was dispatched on a bombing raid and he looks at his orders and he's asked to hit a target.
01:08:17.180
And they go, there are 20,000 women and children sheltering in this building.
01:08:21.680
And he goes, I'm not going to bomb a building with 20,000 women and children.
01:08:36.660
But he goes, I haven't been able to live with it to this day.
01:08:39.800
Now, my point is, the, in the logic of World War II, and let's remember, Churchill and FDR
01:08:46.500
were very concerned that the German public supported Hitler and they were hanging with Hitler to the end
01:08:53.760
and that the German refusal to surrender was coming in part from the fact that the German public was saying,
01:09:02.000
And so the, and here we're not even talking, Israel doesn't even do this.
01:09:05.760
We're talking about a direct targeted attack on civilians to break the will of the German people.
01:09:13.060
I think probably, I mean, it's, it's a horrific thing.
01:09:17.800
Churchill thought there was no alternative to doing, to doing it.
01:09:26.700
We were talking to guys who go, you know, you can't imagine how many both soldiers and Israeli dogs have been killed
01:09:34.480
So it's much easier to carpet bomb Gaza, but they don't do it.
01:09:39.220
They're doing it almost with moral scruples all the way and they're getting blamed for it.
01:09:46.120
So that's why everybody's mad over in Israel at Bibi, because why didn't, they're like,
01:09:50.940
why didn't you just go all out and start dragging it out all this time?
01:09:54.880
Because obviously they never released the hostages.
01:09:58.380
So that means they didn't want the war to end because who steals hostages?
01:10:04.060
And then refuses to release them, even though they're losing.
01:10:13.380
Certainly not people who say they're the victims who hold the keys to the end of the war in their hands,
01:10:20.460
And then people are still like, the poor, those poor perpetrators, those poor murderers, rapists, and baby killers,
01:10:37.240
They're satanic, and they all are brainwashed, and they won't survive.
01:10:41.840
The farther they go down that road, young people, the farther you go down that road,
01:10:54.020
I hate to see them used to destroy themselves in some lemming programming.
01:10:59.520
American boys that listen to Nick Fuentes and all those people, they've got to get some balls.
01:11:07.840
He's just taking their balls away, because he's obviously gay as hell.
01:11:16.340
But, you know, they've got to stand up and get some balls for their country,
01:11:26.560
They don't want it to become a caliphate, for God's sake,
01:11:30.160
just because they have secret fantasies of wearing pink panties and skirts.
01:11:37.260
I'm telling you, get off those games and man up.
01:11:47.820
I mean, if you're on the devil's side, may God remove you.
01:11:52.480
I don't mean from the earth, but from power and any kind of position.
01:11:57.260
And just may you be replaced by a patriot who really knows what America's about.
01:12:04.300
A lot of these guys are just, you know, they—
01:12:09.200
You know, I don't want people to be leaving my congregation over this.
01:12:21.320
I mean, you're in the business of selling morality.
01:12:29.820
Supposed to be lifting morals and souls, not denigrating them.
01:12:35.840
Not rubbing men's face in the dirt and saying, you know, you've got to help people who want to kill you.
01:12:41.200
Now, I've got to tell—I've got to have you explain, Jake, you sent me a beautiful note after you and your mom saw this film.
01:12:48.560
I've got to say, it was one of the most moving things I've seen.
01:13:06.660
We've got to talk about this film before he leaves because—
01:13:17.160
And I just got to tell you that the message I sent you from us was, of course, real.
01:13:21.540
But we were truly touched because, you know, as you can see, we're very passionate about this.
01:13:30.880
And we don't feel like there's other people that validate our opinions.
01:13:37.720
Like, you're just—you know, like, even Tucker, you're not even the Jews of the Bible or whatever these people are saying, which is terrifying shit.
01:13:44.040
But so to see an actual movie that touches on the Bible—you touch on archaeology, all the stuff we talk—but it validates what we've been saying.
01:13:54.220
It really did touch us because we didn't feel alone after.
01:13:57.600
We felt like, okay, there are good people out there that see it, too.
01:14:08.100
I have young children, and I needed that so deeply.
01:14:13.640
Because I'm like, is this the time for Jews to leave America?
01:14:25.580
That's the one thing the right and left agree on is the hatred of Jews.
01:14:32.060
And even after Charlie Kirk shooting—I said this on the podcast last week—we've been waiting for this moment as Republicans for so long.
01:14:39.900
We finally have it now, the moral authority to say the left is the violent ones.
01:14:48.580
And as soon as it happened, Candace, Tucker, Nick Quintus, they turned their cameras on, and they go, it was the Jews.
01:14:57.120
And this is a point that a lot of these young MAGA people don't get.
01:15:01.360
Okay, so let's look at the Charlie Kirk assassination.
01:15:03.320
You've got this twisted kid who is so-called dating a trans, whatever that even means.
01:15:13.320
Our theory, Debbie's and mine, is that some of this trans stuff is these are basically people who are gay, but they're raised in a conservative household.
01:15:24.740
So they basically go, well, you know, think of this kid.
01:15:35.800
It's, you know, I forget the guy's name, but, you know, it's a man becoming a woman.
01:15:39.780
But, you know, but we're in our own way mirroring the heterosexual lifestyle.
01:15:44.880
Anyway, and then you have all these reports which remain to be investigated that there were these trans chat groups that knew about it beforehand.
01:15:55.360
They're like something big is going to happen tomorrow.
01:16:04.440
Oh, and then leave aside basically carving your motives on the bullets.
01:16:08.820
You know, this is something I've never even heard of, which is like, catch this fascist.
01:16:12.540
And so we got them and it's like dead to rights.
01:16:17.060
And then just when you're like, okay, you know what?
01:16:22.580
Some of these trans groups have this military training.
01:16:27.900
And then right at that moment, from the right, unexpectedly, like your right window gets blown out.
01:16:35.860
And you've got these people whom some of whom you, I mean, in our case, we know.
01:16:39.980
We don't know Nick Fuentes, but we know Candace, we know Tucker.
01:16:43.440
And suddenly you're getting a, no, it's not the trans, it's not the trans leftist.
01:16:55.280
It comes from, it comes from a very weird place.
01:16:57.780
And even Ian Carroll, we had on this show, I tell people all this time, we had met him outside.
01:17:01.760
We had him on the show, everyone was mad at us.
01:17:07.880
Yeah, no, and he was respectful to his credit at the time.
01:17:11.640
But the point was, he had said, it's, he said to me, and I tell this all the time, even he knew it's not organic.
01:17:19.500
He said, the Fuentes stuff, this movement that he's a part of, I can tell you it's not organic.
01:17:31.080
Let's talk about the Qatar angle here a little bit.
01:17:34.580
They own all our universities, our state department.
01:17:40.700
Who's, honey, who, who was I talking to the other day?
01:17:42.860
And the guy goes, he goes, Dinesh, he goes, you know, listen.
01:17:45.860
And he goes, I can tell you that Israel has a lot of influence because I'm constantly being invited on free trips to Israel.
01:17:53.620
And I've never been invited on a free trip to Qatar.
01:17:56.680
And I was like, that's because the Qataris, first of all, they are going after the institutions at the root.
01:18:04.720
Yeah, they're not going to invite you on a free trip.
01:18:06.640
That's because they own the political science department at like 12 major universities.
01:18:17.400
So, I mean, you're talking about, first of all, 2 billion people in the Muslim world.
01:18:23.300
You're talking about massively oil-rich countries.
01:18:26.160
Qatar, you know, the Qataris basically joke that they're the chosen people because none of them have to work.
01:18:31.960
And basically oil comes out of the ground and it's like dollar bills are flying into the air.
01:18:36.060
And they're like, obviously God must have liked what he saw when he saw that he made us.
01:18:40.060
So, these people are using their, and who was the guy?
01:18:50.300
And, you know, Charlie Kirk, one of the last things he said, and I want to say this, is he said,
01:18:56.400
Islam is using the left to slit the West's throat.
01:19:03.880
I did think that that was so, that was, you know, you would expect a shooter to go for the chest.
01:19:07.680
It's just, it's so symbolic that they went for the throat.
01:19:11.560
And, I mean, I can't say, I mean, probably none of us is really over it even now.
01:19:20.120
I don't think, I, I think there's a lot more lessons coming.
01:19:30.360
And, you know, I hope that we are still mentally alive enough to be able to accept the truth.
01:19:42.740
And we don't rationalize it away going, oh no, it was, BB came in there.
01:19:48.100
He, he flew on, in on a private plane there and just, Orem, Utah.
01:19:55.640
I hope we're strong enough and mentally capable enough to be able to witness the truth and not try to rationalize it away for our superstitions and our hatreds.
01:20:07.860
You know, I don't even really blame the young people so much.
01:20:10.460
I think the phrase that was used at Charlie's memorial was the lost generation.
01:20:14.820
And it is true that there is a generation of young people, they are the product of the most broken of broken families.
01:20:21.740
They don't have the opportunities that their parents did that I think, you know, Debbie and I struggled when we're both from other countries.
01:20:28.800
But we could buy a house and we could see the American dream.
01:20:33.280
And I can understand a certain sense of just despondency and even anomie that comes out of, like, I don't see a future.
01:20:42.060
And that's why I blame the professors and I blame the people in authority.
01:20:50.020
And so, you know, if we seem to be, like, focused on even the right-wing pundits, it's because when you're leading a lost generation, you have a lot of responsibility.
01:21:03.500
Not to be the Pied Piper that takes them off the cliff.
01:21:06.660
And if you are, and you do it knowingly, you're the apostle of Satan.
01:21:13.340
And you're doing the very people that you claim to be helping.
01:21:19.540
You're using what in rhetoric is called the argumentum ad ignorantium.
01:21:23.480
You're the argument that appeals to the ignorance of the audience.
01:21:34.380
That was when I came to television, what their attitude there was about working class people and why they hated me so bad.
01:21:42.160
Because I said, no, these people are smarter than you.
01:21:46.040
I'm not going to play down to them because they're not ignorant.
01:21:50.520
And that's why they hated me because, you know, I knew that I was there to uplift, not degrade.
01:21:58.260
And they're the same people in all those positions of that tastemaker position.
01:22:05.060
They have that same attitude of just despising their own audience.
01:22:14.800
The other thing they're playing on, and this is the other feature of anti-Semitism that we haven't mentioned.
01:22:18.980
And it's raised briefly in the film that racism is different than anti-Semitism.
01:22:34.000
And so racism in that sense always has this downward trajectory.
01:22:39.420
Anti-Semitism is not like that because Jews are one of the most successful tribes in world history.
01:22:43.660
So, you know, as Netanyahu says to me in the film, he goes, we found this land.
01:22:52.780
And he goes, and so we're going to keep it because we essentially built it.
01:22:57.080
It's kind of like saying we bought Manhattan from the Indians for 50 cents, but it was worth 50 cents.
01:23:07.700
And so the value is not in the original land even.
01:23:14.340
And I even have gotten into fights about the people.
01:23:18.140
And I go, yeah, but immigrants didn't build America.
01:23:23.300
Immigrants immigrated to a good society that was better than their own, but that society already existed.
01:23:29.780
So we've contributed as immigrants to this society, but we are not its original builders.
01:23:36.440
It is about building, isn't it, rather than just destroying.
01:23:42.840
It's about whether you're going to create or destroy.
01:23:53.160
He goes, one of the signs of the last age is there will be not just an attack on God.
01:23:59.740
Not just an attack on the Jews and the Christians, but like an attack on productivity, on family, on community, on God's creation, on the distinction between men and women.
01:24:12.020
All the fundamental, human and rational, and even natural categories and affections, all of it will come under attack.
01:24:21.860
Yeah, like building community wealth is a bad thing now.
01:24:27.020
Every group, every tribe has built by helping its own.
01:24:37.400
The overseas Chinese did it in places like Malaysia.
01:24:41.460
And so, again, why are you singling out the Jews?
01:24:43.760
The Jews do it, but I know 10 other people who do it.
01:24:46.220
In fact, not only do I know 10 other people who do it, that is, in fact, the recipe for groups pulling themselves up out of discrimination and out of poverty.
01:24:57.440
And not only that, but then when you have members of your group that do bad things, it's going to make your group look bad.
01:25:04.100
So, that's why, you know, people say, well, why are you, you know, why are you doing this?
01:25:09.920
Well, unfortunately, when a lot of bad people are coming from one group, people are going to cast aspersions on the group.
01:25:17.220
Even the whole DEI phenomenon comes out of that.
01:25:20.600
Because you give preferences to a group, and the achievements of everybody in that group, not just the people who got the preference, all of them fall under suspicion.
01:25:32.660
Sorry, in the Dragon's Prophecy, because we had Jonathan Connaught.
01:25:35.220
Do you think we're at the end days, you specifically?
01:25:45.320
I approach this from a much more kind of sort of secular mindset, I would say, than Khan.
01:25:51.400
And the way I look at it, there are people who are very ingenious in being able to read the fine print, so to speak, and even between the lines.
01:26:01.760
They'll read the book of Revelation, and they will give you a rather blow-by-blow chronology of the last days.
01:26:08.000
My view is that the book of Revelation is deliberately more veiled.
01:26:22.040
And I think in a beautiful transition, he goes, you know, he goes, the green for the green horse, the red for the red horse, the black for the black horse.
01:26:29.640
And now, let's take a look at the colors, not just with a Palestinian flag, but a lot of the other flags of the nearby Muslim countries, they've got the colors of the apocalypse.
01:26:41.580
But my view is that when it comes to biblical prophecy, let's just focus on the really big stuff.
01:26:47.780
So, the return of the Jews to their ancestral homeland, that's a big one.
01:26:53.660
And the reason it's a big one is because prophecy is impressive in direct proportion to its improbability, right?
01:27:00.580
If I toss a coin and I say, I'm going to call three heads in a row, and I get three heads, unlikely, but it could happen.
01:27:07.420
On the other hand, if I spin a roulette wheel that has 800 numbers on it, and I tell you, I'm going to call the number in advance, and then I do it, that's pretty impressive because the chances I could do that.
01:27:17.500
If you lived, let's just say, in, you know, 180 or 580, and someone told you, these Jews are all over the world, scattered, are going to return, not just going to return together, they're going to return to the place that they came from, they're going to revive the Hebrew language after 2,000 years, they're going to eat the same food and celebrate the same holidays and worship the same God, most people would think you're nuts.
01:27:42.460
In fact, when I came to America, the Shah was in charge in Iran.
01:27:45.600
If you were to tell me that there's going to be a jihadi revolution, and it's going to be led by the Muslims and the Bible points to Iran, I would say, well, that's not going to happen because look at the Shah, he's pro-Western, he's pro-Israel.
01:27:57.980
So it took the Khomeini revolution to move us where that passage in the Bible becomes more plausible.
01:28:06.080
So my view is just this, where we don't know anything about the date or time of these events, but we can see signs that some of the broad trends described in the Bible are eerily familiar to us.
01:28:20.080
So we can't deny we are in that last age, how long it's going to last, I think is an open question.
01:28:26.160
Well, I would tell everybody, go ahead and search the Star of Jacob, and you'll find a lot of stuff that will blow your mind there, because it happened.
01:28:38.600
And it had seven comets with it, and now there's this, the Atlas 3i breaking apart and stuff, I mean, I don't know.
01:28:52.020
I have not been tracking the Atlas, yeah, I want people to search.
01:28:55.500
Well, they don't have to search, thedragonsprophecyfilm.com.
01:29:08.100
Our conversation is funny, because we don't actually have to do, quote, film talk, because this is the material that this film deals with.
01:29:14.800
And what I love about it is that it engages the political head-on.
01:29:22.060
I mean, Tucker is in the film, and the left is in the film, and we deal with the issue of...
01:29:26.400
Everything we've talked about today is in the film.
01:29:28.620
I mean, think of the strange phenomenon that the Jews alone are accused of colonizing their own land.
01:29:38.440
This is like, the Indians are colonizing India.
01:29:42.620
And I made the point, I was on with Matt Gaetz, and Matt Gaetz was like...
01:29:46.980
Well, he's like, Dinesh, he's like, listen, so what if the Jews were there first?
01:29:50.280
He goes, listen, he goes, the Native Americans were first in America, so does that mean they get to keep the whole country?
01:29:57.980
I said, look, there are only three ways to get a country.
01:30:11.440
If you look at the whole world and the borders of the world, they were settled in one of these ways.
01:30:15.940
I said, now, when you look at America, I basically see that the American Indians get one checkmark.
01:30:23.340
But they were also raiding and conquering each other, and then comes the white man that conquers them.
01:30:37.160
They got the land assigned to them by the UN after World War II.
01:30:48.080
No other country has as clear a title because it checks all three boxes.
01:31:01.580
I mean, I was giving a completely secular account.
01:31:09.400
My family name is David, and I wanted to sue the whole damn international community.
01:31:27.480
When's this film release, and where can people go to see it?
01:31:35.940
So the two days alongside October 7th, it'll be in about 400 theaters.
01:31:40.320
And so if you go on the website, you just put in your zip code, boom, all the theaters
01:31:48.800
I want to say it's beautifully shot, and you should see it in the cinema, because it is
01:31:59.400
We could tell you, and it'll bring us to tears about the guy who did our music for this
01:32:03.620
film, because we hired this guy, Richard Friedman.
01:32:08.280
He's actually a very good friend of Dennis Prager.
01:32:13.880
We hire him, and seven days later, he has a heart attack.
01:32:19.140
But he has a sound guy who's an Academy Award winning guy.
01:32:22.040
So the two of them are putting music into our film from the hospital room, right?
01:32:32.100
So talk about the fact that there's a kind of a spiritual element, even in the composition
01:32:42.720
And it's going to be on Salem now, which is the Salem platform.
01:32:47.540
So on Rumble, you can just basically click and buy it.
01:32:51.860
And we're exploring a bunch of other platforms as well.
01:32:54.340
We're going to make it really easy for people to see it.
01:32:57.980
But these days, a lot of people like to watch at home, and that's fine too.
01:33:01.820
One, I believe, and Debbie said it outside, but I just wanted to say this because I didn't
01:33:07.140
But this film really feels, and I believe in my heart of hearts, that it's God-led.
01:33:15.880
There's an energy behind it, and you just have to see it to understand what I'm saying.
01:33:19.200
Once you see it, you'll understand what I'm saying.
01:33:31.480
I'm talking about it all the time, and I sometimes have a little difficulty, which
01:33:39.320
If someone were to ask you, what's the Shawshank Redemption about, right?
01:33:43.260
You're going to say, well, it's about friendship.
01:33:46.780
But you're not even beginning to do justice to it because you're talking about the film.
01:33:51.760
You're not actually talking about the experience of the film itself.
01:33:55.120
And ultimately, you want, in a film, it to take on that life of its own where there's
01:34:05.680
And I think this film does have it, and we feel it.
01:34:15.140
And, you know, when we made this film, a lot of my films, people jokingly say they're
01:34:19.940
horror films because you leave the film and you're a little dazed.
01:34:24.840
Will we ever have another election in this country?
01:34:30.880
This film has some of those low points, but it also has high points, which I think is very
01:34:39.100
People are looking for a way out and a way forward.
01:34:43.660
And then the other thing, and then I'll stop talking.
01:34:47.460
Because you know you're going to get backlash for this film because it's pro-Bible, pro-Israel.
01:34:59.520
This is what in the Reagan years we call supply-side economics.
01:35:03.560
And what I mean by that is for my books and my films, I come up with an idea.
01:35:08.040
I test it to see if it is current with what's going on in the world.
01:35:14.480
In today's culture, you have to surf on the wave, right?
01:35:17.420
If someone were to make a great film right now and the film was, let's say, about, you
01:35:21.360
know, Afghanistan or about China, it would sink like a stone.
01:35:25.620
So I do subject my work to, like, is this relevant to our moment today?
01:35:30.940
And then I ask, is the central idea of it, like, interesting to me?
01:35:38.680
And then if I like that, I'm going to go for it.
01:35:41.560
And I'm in complete indifference to anything else.
01:35:44.080
When I made my first film on Obama, I would go literally to potential, you know, funders,
01:35:50.000
investors, and I would say, I'm going to make a film.
01:35:53.740
I'm like, it's about how Obama is an anti-colonialist.
01:35:57.460
They were like, seriously, you're going to put a film like this in the theater?
01:36:02.580
And to the degree that they even know, they think it's a good thing because America used to
01:36:07.020
So how are you going to explain this rather arcane third world concept?
01:36:16.340
And if I do it well, I think the film will catch on.
01:36:19.780
And it did catch on and launched my whole documentary film career because it was the
01:36:24.100
second most successful documentary ever made after Fahrenheit 9-11.
01:36:28.360
So I wouldn't be in the film business if I didn't hit a home run out the gate.
01:36:34.480
Listen, we do think this is, in a sense, our most profound film.
01:36:39.480
It's a very uplifting film for Americans to see, to remember who we are and why we are
01:36:49.200
And in a way, it goes even beyond that because we're saying, look, in the big scheme of things,
01:36:54.220
we don't know what's going to happen to America.
01:36:58.940
And the line between good and evil runs through every human heart.
01:37:01.620
And it is this moral choice that we all have to make individually.
01:37:07.040
And ultimately, I think we all believe our spiritual judgment is based on that.
01:37:16.460
And this film wants to put that question front and center.
01:37:19.820
So when people go, in fact, yesterday we were talking to somebody who's like, well, Israel
01:37:25.720
We're like, well, yes, geographically you're right, but the issues and the moral choices
01:37:33.360
that come out of Jerusalem are right in front of you every single day.
01:37:38.600
And without that, by the way, our country is built on these two pillars.
01:37:43.840
You remove one pillar, Jerusalem, there's no Western civilization left.
01:37:48.680
They're getting everybody to remove their own source of life.
01:37:52.140
But anyway, well, I think we're going to cap it.
01:38:01.400
Everybody's being trained to kill off their own source.
01:38:06.500
We have to fight that because without our source, we won't stand.
01:38:11.920
And if you're interested in the stuff we've been talking about, you're going to find this
01:38:31.200
And by the way, movie tickets, buy them on the website.
01:38:34.560
You can't go to the theater and buy it right there.
01:38:38.940
We've done these theatrical buyouts, which means we buy a receipt.
01:38:50.540
Just sign up for streaming and order your DVDs and you're going to be fine.
01:38:54.460
I'm laughing a little to myself because I talk about this movie gives me hope and proof of
01:38:57.700
God, but it's like the dragon's prophecy and Satan is real and all these really scary,
