Timcast IRL - Tim Pool - WAR HAS BEGUN | Timcast IRL #1460 w- Seth Holehouse

00:01:51.000 On February 28th at 1:15 a.m. Eastern Time, more than 100 aircraft launched and initiated Operation Epic Fury, the United States attack on Iran.

00:02:04.000 Now, this is in conjunction with the Israeli military, and there's a lot of news that's coming out right now.

00:02:10.000 So, we're going to be talking about it most of the night.

00:02:12.000 First of all, the death toll in the United States of the United States service members has been six people that have died already.

00:02:19.000 The let's see, where is it?

00:02:23.000 Already.

00:02:26.000 Senior officials are saying that there's attacks on Saudi Saudi Arabian embassy.

00:02:32.000 Secretary Marco Rubio had some remarks that have got a lot of people worked up.

00:02:37.000 We're going to get into all of that tonight.

00:02:39.000 Three fighter jets have been shot down over Kuwait.

00:02:42.000 Now, that's a friendly fire episode.

00:02:44.000 No lives were lost in that one.

00:02:46.000 So, we're going to be talking about that.

00:02:47.000 There was actually a terrorist attack, or what is likely a terrorist attack, already in Austin.

00:02:54.000 The gunmen wore property of Allah Hoodie.

00:02:57.000 So people are obviously up in arms about that.

00:03:01.000 The Strait of Hormuz is closed.

00:03:03.000 There's so much stuff to talk about tonight.

00:03:04.000 The Strait of Hormuz is closed, and this is affecting, going to affect all of global trade, obviously.

00:03:11.000 There's a bunch of talk about China's involvement in this or what kind of effect it's going to have on China.

00:03:18.000 The Israelis have space lasers. 0.96

00:03:21.000 Well, they're not actually space-based, but they are using directed energy weapons against incoming missiles.

00:03:29.000 There's a big old earthquake swarm in Nevada's nuclear top secret base.

00:03:35.000 That's where they were testing weapons.

00:03:37.000 So there's a bunch of allegations that the U.S. has initiated nuclear tests again.

00:03:43.000 And then we're going to talk about USAA CEOs talking about Gen Z saying they're not going to be as well off as boomers.

00:03:49.000 So we're going to get into all that.

00:03:50.000 But first, here's a message from our sponsors.

00:03:53.000 Tonight, we are brought to you by the campaign for America First International Assistance.

00:03:58.000 This is the CAFIA.

00:04:01.000 They believe that a new era of America First International Assistance is underway and that President Trump has made clear the U.S. will act decisively while ending the practice of providing blank checks.

00:04:12.000 According to CAFIA, the U.S. assistance should be strategic, accountable, and tied to measurable results that strengthen American security, including stronger borders, tougher enforcement, and real cooperation to stop illegal immigration and keep deadly drugs out of U.S. communities.

00:04:27.000 CAFIA believes that America First Assistance should focus on stabilizing fragile regions before crises reach U.S. shores, strengthening key partners and supporting American farmers, manufacturers, and workers.

00:04:38.000 It also cites data from President Trump's pollster showing that 80% of Trump voters support this approach to international assistance.

00:04:45.000 The campaign for America First International Assistance believes Trump is sending a message to Beijing stating that the use of foreign aid to buy influence and control will no longer go unchallenged and that the U.S. must lead with strength, purpose, and clear conditions that put American security first.

00:05:00.000 You guys can check out more by going to AmericaFirstintl.org.

00:07:22.000 As you said, my main thing is I've got a podcast called Man in America, which Rumble is my main place.

00:07:28.000 I'm very censored on YouTube, still on there.

00:07:31.000 So I cover a lot of the same things you guys are covering here.

00:07:33.000 I tend to look kind of like, okay, what's behind the veil?

00:07:37.000 Where are the puppet strings at?

00:07:38.000 Trying to figure out what's really going on, how the secret society is playing into things.

00:07:43.000 And that's just where I tend to go with my kind of investigative coverage.

00:07:46.000 But I do a lot of interviews, a lot of commentary.

00:07:49.000 But yeah, that's my main thing: the Man in America podcast.

00:07:52.000 Well, thank you for joining us.

00:07:52.000 Awesome.

00:07:53.000 Elad is here.

00:07:54.000 Good evening, everybody.

00:07:56.000 I am Elad Eliyahu, the White House correspondent here at Timcast, and I am proud to be an American, where at least I know I'm free.

00:08:05.000 And I won't forget the man who died who gave that right to me.

00:08:11.000 And I'll gladly stand up next to you and defend her still today.

00:08:18.000 Because there ain't no doubt I love this land.

00:08:23.000 God bless Israel.

00:08:26.000 Yes.

00:08:27.000 Hey, it's an honor to be on tonight.

00:08:30.000 Obviously, we have a lot of exciting news, and it's a good day to be an American.

00:08:35.000 How's it going, Tate?

00:08:35.000 So true.

00:08:36.000 This is why I love Timcast.

00:08:38.000 We're agile, like cats.

00:08:40.000 Meow.

00:08:41.000 Anyway, I'm Tate Brown.

00:08:42.000 You're holding it down, Patriot, Rio Patriots out there.

00:08:45.000 One of the biggest Trump shows working today, and I do actually have some concerns with the Iran strike for the record.

00:08:51.000 So we'll probably get into that, Phil, what's going on?

00:08:52.000 Oh, Carter's.

00:08:54.000 Yeah, I mean, I can't follow up that at all.

00:08:57.000 But lovely voices, everyone.

00:08:59.000 I'm Carter Banks here, pressing the buttons tonight, delivering you guys a good podcast.

00:09:04.000 So, Phil, let's get into it.

00:09:05.000 All right, we're going to start with a little bit of the timeline from Reuters.

00:09:08.000 Top U.S. General outlines initial timeline of U.S. military operation in Iran.

00:09:13.000 Top U.S. General Dan Kane, Dan Raisin Kane, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, on Monday gave an initial timeline and some details on the start of the U.S. military operation in Iran.

00:09:23.000 So far, four, well, at the time of the writing, it was four, but they've actually upped the casualties to six.

00:09:30.000 U.S. service members have been killed and four others remain seriously wounded, the military has said.

00:09:36.000 As of February 27th at 3:38 p.m. Eastern Time, the U.S. Central Command received the final GO order from President Donald Trump.

00:09:42.000 Operation Epic Fury is approved.

00:09:45.000 No aborts.

00:09:46.000 U.S. forces made final preparations.

00:09:46.000 Good luck.

00:09:48.000 Air defense batteries check systems to respond to Iranian attacks.

00:09:52.000 Pilots and crews rehearsed strike packages for the final time.

00:09:55.000 Air crews began loading final weapons.

00:09:57.000 Two carrier strike groups began to move towards launching points.

00:10:00.000 The first moves were made by U.S. Cyber Command and U.S. Space Command, which worked to disrupt, degrade, and blind Iran's ability to see, communicate, and respond before the attack began. 0.62

00:10:10.000 February 28th, at 1:15 a.m. Eastern Time, which is 9:45 a.m. Iran time, more than 100 aircraft from land and sea launched, forming a single synchronized wave.

00:10:21.000 The daylight strike was based on a trigger event conducted by the Israeli defense forces, enabled by the U.S. intelligence community.

00:10:27.000 This was an apparent reference to Kane's Israelis' strike, surprise strike on Iran's supreme leader, Ali Khomeini, that was aided by U.S. intelligence.

00:10:39.000 All right.

00:10:40.000 So we're going to get into a lot of the things going on.

00:10:43.000 And first off, we're going to talk about the death toll because one thing the United States, the American people, don't really take kindly to is Americans coming home in body bats.

00:10:54.000 This is the biggest fear that America has.

00:10:58.000 We're extremely concerned with losing lives.

00:11:02.000 I said last week, the U.S. is generally accepting of airstrikes if there are no casualties.

00:11:10.000 And you can see that kind of the evidence for that in the Venezuela operation.

00:11:15.000 The fact that the U.S. went in, did what it wanted to do, no Americans lost their lives.

00:11:21.000 So the approval rating on that was something like 80% or something.

00:11:25.000 75% of Americans were like, well, that's okay, you know.

00:11:29.000 But we're in a conflict now that is, by the president's own admission, going to be something longer.

00:11:39.000 It's not going to be like just the strikes on Venezuela.

00:11:42.000 The president has already alluded to a expectation of casualties.

00:11:49.000 And within the first couple of days, we had an Iranian missile strike.

00:11:53.000 I believe it was a U.S. Navy installation in Saudi Arabia, I think.

00:11:59.000 And that's where six U.S. service members died.

00:12:02.000 So I'm wondering what you guys think about that.

00:12:06.000 You know, the fact that this is already off to a start where there are Americans that have died.

00:12:13.000 Well, I mean, I think Trump said he's now saying it's going to be four weeks, roughly.

00:12:18.000 And it just, whenever I hear these things coming from anybody in the government, it goes straight back to that.

00:12:24.000 Okay, it's two weeks to slow the spread.

00:12:26.000 All right.

00:12:27.000 It's four weeks to save your grandma.

00:12:29.000 Right.

00:12:30.000 It's the same thing.

00:12:32.000 And so I agree with what you're saying, though, is that when you've got potentially boots on the ground, which means...

00:12:40.000 I don't know about that.

00:12:40.000 Well, I don't know.

00:12:41.000 And the reason, and I'm going to push back on that just because if you look back at the way that we staged before the invasion of Iraq, if you look back at the way that we staged before the first desert storm, it was obvious that there were going to be boots on the ground.

00:12:57.000 The United States doesn't send in ground forces unless there's a Burger King in a trailer right behind him.

00:13:04.000 The logistics are just not there to say that the boots, that there's going to be boots on the ground.

00:13:10.000 Now, that's not saying that there won't be.

00:13:12.000 That's saying that as of right now, talking about boots on the ground is too early.

00:13:16.000 You would see massive buildup, a massive buildup of logistics before you could realistically predict.

00:13:25.000 Actually, you would see some logistics starting to move before you could realistically predict boots on the ground.

00:13:30.000 Now, again, I'm not saying that it won't happen.

00:13:32.000 I'm just saying that I think that it's early to talk about that kind of stuff.

00:13:35.000 Well, and off your initial point, I mean, with the story, the six service members were killed in Kuwait at a base there.

00:13:42.000 And that actually kind of steel mans a little bit what Mark Arubio was saying today about how this strike was actually kind of more preemptive in the sense that they were going to attack us anyway.

00:13:51.000 So we might as well strike first.

00:13:53.000 And this is why I say this kind of steel mans it to a degree is because the casualties would have been far higher if we didn't anticipate an attack occurring coming from Iran. 0.94

00:14:02.000 Again, this is not to sort of say one way or the other if this is a good idea.

00:14:06.000 I just really don't think so.

00:14:08.000 But people are saying this is like the service members were killed during the operation.

00:14:12.000 It was actually killed by Iranians striking in Kuwait.

00:14:15.000 Just for clarity, are you saying that the Iranian, you think the Iranians were going to attack regardless of the U.S. attacking?

00:14:23.000 You think that the Israeli strikes would have made the Iranians attack U.S. installations? 0.58

00:14:29.000 Well, I mean, look at what's happening now is the Iranians are striking Gulf states that have zero involvement whatsoever. 1.00

00:14:34.000 They struck a French naval base and the UAE.

00:14:38.000 So Either UA or Qatar, the UAE, I believe.

00:14:43.000 So it's like, clearly, Iran has zero geopolitical instincts.

00:14:48.000 Very reminiscent.

00:14:49.000 I know people always compare stuff to World War II, but this actually is very salient.

00:14:53.000 It would be kind of reminiscent of when Japan attacked the Americans at Pearl Harbor.

00:14:57.000 It's like you're just kind of roping in countries that probably otherwise would be slightly aligned, but they wouldn't be all in, and now it forces their hand to go all in.

00:15:04.000 So Iran is rallying the entire Sunni-Muslim world against them because while they certainly are empathetic with the Palestinians, they do not like Iran.

00:15:13.000 So, you know, it's forcing them to pick a side.

00:15:16.000 And when you strike them, they're going to side against you.

00:15:18.000 A lot, is this for Israel?

00:15:21.000 No, it's not for Israel, but I will say this was because of Israel. 0.63

00:15:28.000 Let me flesh that out a little bit more.

00:15:28.000 And let me explain.

00:15:30.000 There has been a total and complete reshaping of Middle Eastern geopolitics since October 7th.

00:15:36.000 Who was the original commander?

00:15:37.000 Yahya Sinwar was the original commander who really led third worldists astray because this really, again, allowed the reinvigoration of American hegemony, I think, worldwide in the Middle East. 0.85

00:15:50.000 And, you know, we're seeing third worldists in shambles right now. 1.00

00:15:53.000 But ever since the October 7th war failing to achieve their goals of, I don't know, destroying Israel, Israel has managed to take out Hamas in Gaza, Hezbollah in Lebanon, and then Lebanon's actually, the government of Lebanon has distanced themselves from Hezbollah, which is worth mentioning.

00:16:13.000 They said to the Israelis, look, take out Hezbollah, but don't take out our infrastructure.

00:16:17.000 And I mean, if I could flesh this out a little bit further, they attacked the Houthis also in Yemen.

00:16:21.000 They also helped assist in, we don't know completely how involved Israel and the Americans were in regime change in Syria, but that happening over the course of the couple of years preceding this greatly influenced the Americans and Israelis' ability to strike in Iran.

00:16:37.000 So there are no air defense.

00:16:38.000 There used to be air defenses in Syria and Lebanon that helped prevent Israelis and Americans from flying over and striking the Iranians.

00:16:46.000 But since the Israelis largely defeated our enemies in Syria and Lebanon, it helped facilitate the opportunity to strike straight at the Iranian regime without having to worry too much about blowback from their proxies in different countries.

00:17:00.000 Okay.

00:17:01.000 So from the post-millennial, we're going to talk about this a bit.

00:17:04.000 The death toll rises to six U.S. service members following Iranian attacks on Fortified Operations Center in Kuwait.

00:17:10.000 U.S. Central Command has confirmed that an additional two U.S. service members were killed in the attack on a fortified operations center in Kuwait over the weekend.

00:17:18.000 This raises the death toll of American service members from four to six thus far under Operation Epic Fury.

00:17:24.000 As of 4 p.m. Eastern Time, March 2nd, six U.S. service members have been killed in action.

00:17:28.000 U.S. forces recently recovered the remains of two previously unaccounted for service members from a facility that was struck during Iran's initial attacks in the region.

00:17:37.000 Major combat operations continue.

00:17:39.000 The identities of the fallen are being withheld until 24 hours after Next of Kin notification sentcom reported.

00:17:45.000 Operation Epic Fury was launched by the Trump administration on Saturday, March 1st.

00:17:50.000 Israel and the U.S. teamed up to attack Iran and dismantle their regime.

00:17:54.000 In addition to killing the nation's supreme leader, the entire command structure was wiped out.

00:17:58.000 It's worth noting the U.S. has struck over a thousand or struck a thousand targets in the first hours.

00:18:04.000 And I believe at this point, they've struck 2,000 targets.

00:18:07.000 So, I mean, it is something like I don't want to, you know, to sugarcoat the situation and not talk about the lives lost.

00:18:16.000 But if I understand correctly, the U.S. has largely taken out their significant air defense, and they're starting to do things like load JDAMs, which JDAMs are not good if you have serious air defense.

00:18:27.000 But if you have, if you have the ability to fly high and just drop bombs, J-DAMs are great. 1.00

00:18:33.000 So if that's the case, you know, does this look like a second phase is coming now?

00:18:40.000 Or do you think that this is still something where the U.S. looks like they're going to lose significant numbers of people?

00:18:46.000 And by significant, I mean numbers that the American people are going to find unacceptable.

00:18:52.000 Well, I don't even think we should be looking at this as judging if there's like a certain threshold of casualties that would make those success.

00:18:58.000 And I'm not saying you're saying this, but a lot of people are saying, well, if there's zero casualties like Venezuela, this is a good thing.

00:19:04.000 But it literally reminds me of the Libya stuff back in the day, where Libya was toppled, zero casualties from Americans or the Europeans that were involved.

00:19:12.000 And at the time, everyone celebrated this as a great victory, saying, well, this is a worthwhile operation.

00:19:15.000 There were zero casualties.

00:19:17.000 And then the result ended up being a massive problem, quite frankly, for the West, specifically Europe.

00:19:24.000 And so this kind of reminds me of the same thing with Iran.

00:19:26.000 It's like, if they're seriously trying to say, well, as long as we can get this across the finish line with zero casualties, then this is a success.

00:19:30.000 I'm like, the casualties isn't really, I mean, not to downplay what's happening, but it's like, even if it was zero, this is still, it's probably going to result in something.

00:19:40.000 It's going to be unknown what the result is.

00:19:42.000 I don't know if casualties should be how we define victory or sort of like success.

00:19:47.000 I think that's fascinating because I think the president's been most concerned about that issue in particular.

00:19:52.000 And I think as far as the American public goes, that's what they do care about.

00:19:55.000 I think that the American public would support regime change in Iran so long as it didn't count, didn't cause many American casualties or require boots on the ground.

00:20:04.000 But when you do move to a position of boots on the ground and then hundreds of casualties, I think polls show that that's dramatically the other way.

00:20:11.000 So I think that's why the president has been doing this mostly as an air campaign.

00:20:14.000 Same with Venezuela.

00:20:15.000 He was trying to do these quick attacks with our military force and not draw inspiration from prior commanders in chief who would like to stage a nation build.

00:20:26.000 And that wasn't conducive to success for the American military.

00:20:28.000 The American military wasn't built to build nations.

00:20:32.000 It was built to destroy nations. 0.65

00:20:33.000 So we shouldn't try to put a square peg in a round hole.

00:20:37.000 So, I think that's been the president's MO, which is why I also believe him when he says he only wants to do this for four or five weeks has been the loose term.

00:20:45.000 I don't think if he is able to achieve his objectives in that amount of time, then I think he will pull out if he still if he doesn't achieve them.

00:20:52.000 But I think that's the worst case scenario because I'm not even particular.

00:20:54.000 I mean, I don't think it's a not, I don't think it's a 0% chance of happening, but I don't think it's likely that we get boots on the ground.

00:20:59.000 But a worst case scenario is again, there is like a serious level of intervention.

00:21:04.000 We lose, I don't know, 100, 200 boys, and then we leave, and then there's no result.

00:21:09.000 Like, we're just back at square one, and then like, well, I guess the Middle East broadly is just a bit more destabilized.

00:21:13.000 That's a worst case scenario.

00:21:14.000 And then to your initial point with Libya, again, Gaddafi was deposed because there was a huge local upswell, right?

00:21:21.000 Like, there was a huge upswell of the Arab Spring, and then they, again, formed like a militia group to go and depose Gaddafi.

00:21:27.000 And we didn't really have to get involved.

00:21:28.000 The problem is you have to look at there's two groups in Iran.

00:21:30.000 You have the pro-regime groups, and then you have the protesters.

00:21:34.000 Who have we seen on the streets over the last three days?

00:21:36.000 It's been the pro-regime people.

00:21:38.000 These strikes have animated them.

00:21:40.000 And these protesters, again, are a bit demoralized, a bit apprehensive.

00:21:44.000 They're nowhere to be seen.

00:21:45.000 The streets right now of Tehran, if you look at all the video, it's all pro-regime.

00:21:48.000 Those are the people that are sort of fired up right now.

00:21:51.000 And so I don't think we can bank on the Iranians having like a wholesome Chungus. 1.00

00:21:55.000 Let's overthrow the dictator, like, you know, the Ewoks or whatever. 1.00

00:21:58.000 We're not going to get that.

00:21:59.000 Like, it's the situation is, I think, in Iran, it looks like things are starting to consolidate back around the regime.

00:22:06.000 And so, if we are serious about deposing, again, deposing the entire regime in Iran, then it's going to have to result in boots in the ground.

00:22:13.000 And that's just unacceptable.

00:22:14.000 So, it's like the victory condition needs to be outlined by the Trump administration.

00:22:18.000 What we want needs to be outlined.

00:22:19.000 And we can't have a situation like we outlined where, again, we just keep battering them and we keep losing men.

00:22:25.000 And then in the end, we have nothing to show for it.

00:22:27.000 That's a worst case scenario.

00:22:28.000 Yeah, I think that if there's a high, if there is a high, and by, and when I say high, I mean by American standards, a high death toll of Americans, I think that the U.S. is going to broadly really be upset, right?

00:22:44.000 Like there are people, like right now, I think that it's probably unpopular overall.

00:22:48.000 I think that the Americans will, the American people will accept it if there aren't significant losses.

00:22:54.000 But Aladdin and I were talking earlier.

00:22:56.000 And if a cruise missile manages to make it through and hit an aircraft carrier and takes it out of commission for a little while, which I mean, regardless of the likelihood of that happening, if that happens, then the president's in a really tough spot because you don't want to initiate a war and then turn tail and run because that ruins your credibility.

00:23:17.000 That ruins, that definitely ruins any chances of Republicans getting anything done.

00:23:22.000 Like they're not like they're going to be, you know, pariahs for ages and ages.

00:23:26.000 And it'll look like the same kind of thing that happened in Iraq.

00:23:30.000 But at the same time, the American people don't have this.

00:23:34.000 We have never seen a you or not, at least not since World War II, have we seen an American ship significantly hit?

00:23:40.000 And the meme is: don't F with our boats.

00:23:43.000 So if there's an attack on a Navy ship like the Lincoln or something like that, that's successful. 1.00

00:23:51.000 I don't think that you're going to see that kind of the American people coalesce and say, yes, let's get them back.

00:23:56.000 I think there's going to be a lot of people that are going to be real PO'd at the Trump administration.

00:24:00.000 They're going to be, what happened to no more wars?

00:24:02.000 Which you've already seen that in a certain segment.

00:24:05.000 But I think those people are going to be really upset and it's going to cause real problems for accomplishing any goals.

00:24:12.000 And that's going to hurt America significantly.

00:24:14.000 You know, there's, I feel like a major quagmire, I mean, and a contradiction in many of the things that the president says.

00:24:19.000 But one thing in particular that he constantly said throughout his time campaigning and while president: it's that Iran, the regime in Iran, will not be allowed to have nuclear weapons.

00:24:30.000 And then at the same time, he says, no new wars and no Middle Eastern quagmires.

00:24:34.000 And these can't both be true at the same time if the regime chooses to pursue nuclear weapons and he chooses to prevent them.

00:24:42.000 I think that's kind of where we're at the fork in the road on this conversation too.

00:24:47.000 There's two other things that I also wanted to expand on.

00:24:50.000 Because I asked earlier today, Secretary of War Pete Heckseth had a press briefing where I was able to ask him about whether or not we currently have boots on the ground.

00:25:00.000 Actually, hold on.

00:25:01.000 We're going to play that right now.

00:25:01.000 We've got that video.

00:25:03.000 What does it mean to have no boots on the ground?

00:25:06.000 When people hear boots on the ground.

00:25:08.000 Hey, let us play the video and then you go ahead and move it because it's your video.

00:25:11.000 So Dr. Heckseth, I have two questions for you.

00:25:14.000 First, are there currently any American boots on the ground in Iran?

00:25:20.000 No, but we're not going to go into the exercise of what we will or will not do.

00:25:24.000 I think it's one of those fallacies for a long time that this department or presidents or others should tell the American people and our enemies, by the way, here's exactly what we'll do.

00:25:34.000 Here's exactly how long we'll go.

00:25:36.000 Here's exactly how far we'll go.

00:25:38.000 Here's what we're willing to do and not do. 0.98

00:25:39.000 It's foolishness.

00:25:41.000 And so President Trump ensures that our enemies understand we'll go as far as we need to go to advance American interests. 0.97

00:25:48.000 But we're not dumb about it.

00:25:49.000 You don't have to roll 200,000 people in there and stay for 20 years. 0.97

00:25:53.000 We've proven that you can achieve objectives that advance American interests without being foolish about it. 0.74

00:25:57.000 Now, will we be bold about it?

00:25:59.000 Are we willing to be decisive about it?

00:26:01.000 Do we put months and months of planning into what kind of effects we want to achieve?

00:26:05.000 Absolutely.

00:26:07.000 But going forward, why in the world would we tell you, you, the enemy, anybody what we will or will not do in pursuit of an objective?

00:26:16.000 We fight to win.

00:26:17.000 We fight to achieve the objectives the president of the United States has laid out.

00:26:22.000 And we will do so unapologetically.

00:26:23.000 Thank you.

00:26:24.000 So go ahead with what you're saying.

00:26:26.000 A few things.

00:26:26.000 First, I think that was one of the least convincing no's I've heard in a long time.

00:26:30.000 I think A few things.

00:26:34.000 On top of that, I think the American people deserve the right to know that if the military that they support and their sons and daughters are fighting in, if they are on the ground fighting a war somewhere, which is what the president said that we are engaged in a war, then we deserve to know if there are boots on the ground.

00:26:47.000 Having said that, though, boots on the ground could mean so many different things.

00:26:51.000 If we just have some special operations people on the ground, boots on the ground, I feel like, implies more military troops than just some special operations forces there.

00:27:01.000 I assume there are, though, special operations forces there.

00:27:03.000 And when people hear boots on the ground, they're thinking large-scale military actions with tens of thousands of Marines there, which I think is what he was trying to avoid saying.

00:27:13.000 He, however, did not rule it out, which I understand why he wouldn't want to because he still wants to intimidate the regime.

00:27:19.000 Or I don't know if he's genuinely leaving the option open.

00:27:21.000 The president also said that he is down to send troops over there if need be, but the president also likes to leave his options open.

00:27:28.000 I asked that question in particular.

00:27:29.000 A lot of people were saying it's a dumb question because how is he supposed to answer that if there hasn't been public information about it, though?

00:27:36.000 I just think it's probably the most important issue at hand with how it comes to public sentiment about the war.

00:27:42.000 A lot more people will support the war against Iran if we don't have boots on the ground versus if we do.

00:27:47.000 I think that's the central question moving forward because that'll also be heavily linked to the casualty count that Americans suffer.

00:27:54.000 Sure.

00:27:55.000 Seth, what's your take on what the Secretary of War is saying?

00:28:01.000 Well, where my mind's going is my biggest concern is not deaths of American troops in Iran.

00:28:09.000 It's American soil, right?

00:28:11.000 Because this is the theater of war that we're fighting now is not what it was in World War II, right?

00:28:17.000 Where you have these big ships showing up and dropping troops off and your planes flying overhead.

00:28:22.000 This is fifth generation warfare, right?

00:28:23.000 It's information war.

00:28:24.000 It's a lot of stuff that is new.

00:28:27.000 And so my concern is, okay, we know that Iran has very heavy ties with the CCP, right?

00:28:34.000 With the BRICS nations.

00:28:36.000 They've got an entire fifth column on American soil, right? 0.98

00:28:40.000 A lot of people don't think about that.

00:28:41.000 You go to Walmart, you're passing an Iranian sleeper cell. 0.99

00:28:46.000 You're passing a Chinese quote-unquote student who's actually trained Chinese special forces that's here.

00:28:52.000 That's where my concern is, is domestic.

00:28:55.000 Is Iran going to fire a missile in the United States? 1.00

00:28:58.000 No, it's stupid, right? 0.99

00:29:00.000 But like what we saw with the Texas gunman, which I've got some ideas that, you know, that's kind of suspicious for a few reasons, but our infrastructure is so vulnerable. 0.99

00:29:12.000 And we know this, right?

00:29:13.000 Our government knows it.

00:29:14.000 If you look at our grid especially, it would be so easy to have a couple of Iranian terror cells in the United States absolutely cripple this country, whether it's attacking a key power station, attacking a key transportation hub. 0.77

00:29:29.000 So that's where my concern goes: what's happening with these troops that we know, especially under the Biden administration, were just walking over the border, setting up shop here.

00:29:38.000 So, we're going to jump to this story.

00:29:40.000 I'm going to talk about it, but there's also one question that I want to ask you about that.

00:29:44.000 From CBS News, Texas gunmen wore property of Allah hoodie, an Iranian flag t-shirt during the attack, had photos of Iranian leaders at home, sources say.

00:29:53.000 CBS News has obtained a new photo of the gunman who police say killed two people and wounded 14 at a bar in Austin, Texas.

00:30:00.000 The photo shows the gunman, Nadaga Diagni, after he was killed by police.

00:30:06.000 It shows the clothing he was wearing during the attack, including a shirt with a design similar to the Iranian flag.

00:30:11.000 Asked about the shirt at a news conference Monday, Alex Doran, the acting special agent in charge of the FBI's field office in San Antonio, told reporters that investigators were looking into what connections the shooter may have had.

00:30:23.000 Any declarations on what led to that motive would be premature, Doran said.

00:30:27.000 The shooter was also wearing a sweatshirt that said property of Allah during the attack, according to two sources familiar with the investigation.

00:30:34.000 That description matches a photo obtained by Fox News that appears to show the gunman carrying a long gun.

00:30:39.000 Now, I don't think you're wrong in your concerns, but I would say if that is going to happen, or if that were the case, if there are so many sleeper agents here, then why would they not have attacked right after we basically took out the Ayatollah?

00:31:02.000 I imagine that would be kind of the catalyst.

00:31:05.000 It's like, if you're here in the U.S. and you're hiding among the U.S. population, if the U.S. attacks and or if they kill the Ayatollah, not just the attack, but actually take out basically all of the command structure in the first hours, wouldn't that be the catalyst to say, okay, now's the time to retaliate?

00:31:22.000 Let's go and attack. 0.96

00:31:24.000 Now, because this gunman seems like he was a lone wolf.

00:31:27.000 That's what it kind of points out right now, at least.

00:31:29.000 Obviously, it's one guy.

00:31:31.000 It wasn't a cell.

00:31:32.000 It was a dude that probably was upset that the U.S. was attacking and he took it upon himself to go to a soft target, a bar in Austin.

00:31:41.000 What would you say to someone that says, well, where are these attacks?

00:31:44.000 How come they're waiting?

00:31:46.000 It's such a hard thing to answer, right?

00:31:48.000 It's art of war, right?

00:31:49.000 It's all deception, right?

00:31:52.000 When you're strong, you act weak.

00:31:53.000 When you're weak, you act strong.

00:31:54.000 I mean, it's this.

00:31:55.000 So that would be the obvious thing, right?

00:31:58.000 Is to do that.

00:31:59.000 But is that necessarily what would happen?

00:32:01.000 I don't know.

00:32:02.000 Even when I see this guy, right?

00:32:05.000 This guy.

00:32:06.000 It wasn't Iranian.

00:32:07.000 I'm not going to try to pronounce his name, right?

00:32:09.000 But it's like, you know, I mean, call me the conspiracy theorists here, but I'm thinking, okay, who is this guy?

00:32:15.000 Does he have CIA background, right?

00:32:19.000 It was it, because it's like, it's happened before, right?

00:32:21.000 You even look at the getting into whether it was looking at Pearl Harbor or a lot of these things.

00:32:26.000 Lot of the times you have these kind of government-sponsored false flag events that help build public sentiment towards a war. 0.99

00:32:33.000 Can't he just be third worldist terrorist scum? 0.98

00:32:36.000 Why does it have to come to a naturalized American citizen born in Sengal? 1.00

00:32:40.000 Still be a third worldist just because you're in Senegal. 1.00

00:32:42.000 He absolutely could be.

00:32:43.000 You're right.

00:32:43.000 Third worldist Americans, unfortunately.

00:32:46.000 But I think it's worth just asking these questions is because what's behind this?

00:32:51.000 It's tough to say if he would be specifically tied to Iran, because if he's from Senegal, that would mean he's Sunni.

00:32:57.000 Obviously, Iran is a Shia country.

00:33:01.000 So I kind of lean towards the Lodz that this is probably a schizophrenic third worldist who would be upset with any third world country or non-American, or sorry, non-Western aligned country being bombed. 0.81

00:33:13.000 He was probably equally as frustrated with Venezuela.

00:33:15.000 There's a huge contingent of these people all across the third world who just, again, hate white people specifically and get really upset when white people do white people things, which is get people online sometimes.

00:33:26.000 So these types of guys just get completely fired up.

00:33:29.000 And that's why I think a little bit of schizophrenia, a little bit of third worldism. 0.96

00:33:32.000 It's like you take your pick, what's going on?

00:33:33.000 I mean, this guy was a citizen, so I think that he might get passed over with my prescription.

00:33:38.000 But I think that this only kind of adds strength to the argument.

00:33:43.000 It's time to continue or to ramp up deportations of people from countries that don't align with our values, right? 1.00

00:33:50.000 Like I know that there's a lot of people that think that the idea of ending immigration for a decade or two think that's a little too extreme.

00:33:59.000 They think that deporting people is too extreme.

00:34:02.000 But I really do think that it's probably necessary to start really focusing on getting people that are not American citizens, that come from cultures that don't align with the United States and sending them home. 1.00

00:34:14.000 The United States does not have magic soil.

00:34:17.000 Just because you come here and land on the U.S. doesn't make you into a democracy someone that loves democracy, that loves a representative republic.

00:34:26.000 And the United States has no obligation to allow people that hate our way of life and don't understand or can't relate to our governmental structure and the way that we live.

00:34:37.000 We have no obligation to allow them to stay.

00:34:40.000 I also wanted one more point to your question on timing, right?

00:34:43.000 You'd asked the timing of would it make sense if right after attack like this, that's when you see these cells activated.

00:34:50.000 And I think that if you're looking at, say, Iran acting in isolation, perhaps, but if you're looking at Iran as being part of a much bigger proxy war and a much bigger war that ties in the CCP, Russia, you know, I think the CCP, as much as we've been focused on, okay, people coming across the border, it's a lot of these, you know, kind of dangerous people from terrorist countries, right?

00:35:11.000 What they call the special interest aliens, right?

00:35:14.000 And these people coming in here that they're being flagged.

00:35:16.000 Okay, hey, this guy's from Somalia, terrorist background. 0.95

00:35:20.000 I think that the big concern I have is the Chinese. 1.00

00:35:24.000 A lot of Chinese students that are trained that they're operatives, right?

00:35:28.000 And so, in terms of timing, is it if there's going to be some sort of domestic attack, say a series of coordinated terrorist attacks in America, is it the Iranian leadership that's coordinating that, or is it the CCP, right?

00:35:41.000 Because the CCP might be saying, hey, look, all these Iranian cells hold off because we've got this event that's going to happen.

00:35:48.000 It's going to tie into something with Taiwan, et cetera.

00:35:51.000 So, the timing could be something much bigger than just the Iranians retaliating for the death of their own leaders.

00:35:57.000 Yeah, your estimation about China, I'm 100% in agreement.

00:36:02.000 I think I say it over and over.

00:36:04.000 China is an adversary. 0.98

00:36:05.000 Every single person in the United States that has Chinese family, that's a Chinese national, that has family, all of their family is a pressure point. 1.00

00:36:15.000 The Chinese has no compunction with throwing people in jail, torturing people in order to apply pressure to people that are here. 1.00

00:36:23.000 Every Chinese person that's here that has family back home, that's not a citizen, if they're a Chinese national, they are absolutely a security issue. 1.00

00:36:32.000 And I think that they should all be sent home because as long as China is a threat to the United States, I think that they're a vector for attack in some way, whether it be industrial espionage or something like, like you were saying, like some kind of sleeper cell. 0.99

00:36:48.000 I don't know how many Chinese nationals came over the open border when Biden was the president, but I'm sure that it's in the tens of thousands.

00:36:56.000 And that kind of threat is something that the government cannot ignore.

00:37:01.000 And it's not taking nearly enough action to mitigate that threat.

00:37:06.000 I think this is why, like, okay, we're already at net negative migration.

00:37:08.000 This is why the Trump administration needs to go further and pursue remigration, where you need to start taking a look at these people that have come here in the last 40 to 50 years under this, effectively since the 1960s, they've blown the barn doors wide open on immigration. 0.96

00:37:20.000 You need to start taking a look at these people's paperwork.

00:37:22.000 This is what we call paperwork Americans because clearly this guy, this citizenship, didn't do anything for him. 0.78

00:37:26.000 You know, the pocketbook constitution didn't do anything for him.

00:37:29.000 We need to start asking questions: what can someone from Senegal offer the United States?

00:37:32.000 Okay, there's exceptions, but exceptions don't disprove the norm.

00:37:35.000 We don't design our public policy off of exceptions.

00:37:37.000 So we need to start taking a look at these countries and saying, there's probably not much they can add by having them on a list.

00:37:42.000 We need to start sort of consolidating who's going to most easily assimilate into the United States and then go from there.

00:37:47.000 And then, yeah, start pursuing remigration for a lot of these people.

00:37:49.000 The fact that we've brought in people in the last 60 years who have very, very, very strong opinions on conflicts that have nothing to do with us already shows that our immigration policy has failed.

00:37:58.000 The fact that whenever India and Pakistan went at it, you had fights and strip malls in Dallas. 0.98

00:38:03.000 That tells you all you need to know that this immigration policy over the last post, this post-1960s consensus of our immigration, of the way that we conceptualize ourselves as Americans, where we're just an idea and we're not actually a real nation with the real history and a real shared lineage, just absolutely ridiculous.

00:38:17.000 And it's failed us. 0.93

00:38:18.000 And we should just see, I don't know how many more people need to die before we give up on this retarded experiment. 1.00

00:38:23.000 I think one of the most fascinating parts of this story, and if we zoom out a little bit more to the whole Iran situation, is, again, it's really fascinating how much of a paper tiger Iran's turning out to be. 1.00

00:38:34.000 In the past, we would have feared the terrorist attacks we would have feared was like the Beirut barracks bombing, or in 1992, there was an Israeli embassy bombing by Hezbollah and Benos Ares.

00:38:44.000 And they were these major terrorist attacks.

00:38:46.000 If all that Iran is able to muster up is, you know, a dozen casualties through like a half dozen countries throughout the Middle East, it's kind of underwhelming. 0.79

00:38:56.000 It's actually very underwhelming considering what the conventional wisdom was surrounding Iran for the longest time.

00:39:02.000 I remember being reliably told that if anything were to happen to the Ayatollah, that, you know, Israel would be wiped off the map.

00:39:08.000 Unfortunately, nine Israelis died in a ballistic missile strike in Beit Shemesh, next to outside of Jerusalem.

00:39:15.000 But all things considered, that's not a ton of casualties.

00:39:18.000 Every single life that is lost is obviously, you know, dastardly and horrible.

00:39:23.000 And we thank every service member for their service.

00:39:26.000 But again, all things considered of how all these strikes are playing out and the costs that are coming to the regime, it's astonishing how little the pushback has been.

00:39:35.000 So if this is worst terrorist attacks that they could kind of muster, it's very unimpressive.

00:39:39.000 It's fascinating again how much of a paper tiger that they were and that their proxies were as well, because Hezbollah was supposed to be the person who kind of fended off anybody from attacking Iran. 0.82

00:39:49.000 Because if you were to attack Iran, then Hezbollah had a ton of weapons and it was going to cause a ton of trouble in the Middle East. 0.75

00:39:53.000 But we really dismantled all that, we and our allies.

00:39:57.000 One last tidbit on this, because I don't think we focused on this enough.

00:40:00.000 The killing of Ayatollah Khomeini and the significance of that, I do not think can be overstated.

00:40:06.000 This was a regime founded on anti-Americanism.

00:40:09.000 They contributed to the killings of many Americans in the Marine Barracks bombing.

00:40:13.000 They also contributed a ton of IEDs to Mymar soldiers in Iraq. 0.71

00:40:18.000 I think it's just so fascinating how quickly things have changed.

00:40:22.000 One last tidbit on this.

00:40:24.000 I know I love to glaze Israel on the show, so this won't be coming as any news to anybody.

00:40:28.000 But one of the most amazing things here that I think Israel did was how effective they were at assassinating different high-ranking leaders. 0.62

00:40:37.000 They started with Hamas, with Yahya Simwar, Ishmael Hania, who was killed in Tehran, rather, and Mohamed Dief.

00:40:44.000 Then they made their way up and to kill the leader of the general secretary of Hezbollah in Hassan Rasrallah.

00:40:49.000 There was almost no response.

00:40:51.000 And now they were able to also kill the Ayatollah. 0.91

00:40:54.000 So just the amount of good intelligence that the Israelis have, I feel like can't be overstated.

00:41:01.000 And in the press briefing earlier today, Secretary of War Hekseth mentioned how happy he was to have a capable ally that we're not always as American dragging all the military weight in all the battles around the world.

00:41:12.000 It's amazing to have capable allies who actually can do some of the dirty work for us.

00:41:16.000 I think that was a wink and not to the Europeans who aren't doing shit in Ukraine and maybe some of our Asian allies in Japan and Korea who maybe could be doing more in the Pacific.

00:41:24.000 Oh, I do believe the strike that killed Khamenei, he was that was using U.S. intelligence. 0.95

00:41:29.000 I think that's what Kane said.

00:41:31.000 I think a lot of these are being conducted with U.S. intelligence.

00:41:33.000 I mean, to your point, though, I mean, look, you know, it's neither here nor there in Israel, but it sends a huge wake-up call to our EU.

00:41:40.000 You really think what France would be providing this level of support if we were engaged in the USA?

00:41:43.000 Do you think they have the capabilities to really go down the list of military leaders that there's a-not only there, the undersecretary, the under-undersecretary, the assistant.

00:41:52.000 I don't think that this is something that Iran has dragged us into.

00:41:55.000 I think that he was fairly clear.

00:41:56.000 Iran or Israel. 0.58

00:41:57.000 I'm sorry, Israel. 0.61

00:41:58.000 My bad.

00:41:58.000 I apologize.

00:41:59.000 I misspoke.

00:42:00.000 I don't think that Israel has actually dragged the U.S. into it.

00:42:04.000 I think that he made it pretty clear that no matter what happened, there was going to be strikes against the U.S., against their neighbors.

00:42:13.000 Iran is that kind of state, right?

00:42:16.000 Like they are the destabilizing power in the Middle East. 1.00

00:42:21.000 The Sunnis in Iran don't like the Shia, or the Sunnis in Saudi Arabia don't like the Shia in Iran. 0.71

00:42:29.000 And they have not been friendly.

00:42:32.000 They look at each other as destabilizing.

00:42:34.000 And so it doesn't matter that it was Israel doing the attack.

00:42:39.000 Iran was going to attack their neighbors and the U.S. 1.00

00:42:42.000 But it didn't help that he mentioned Israel because now you've got people saying, well, it's all for Israel.

00:42:47.000 And you can't deny the fact that the U.S. being involved does help Israel.

00:42:52.000 This is something that is going to benefit Israel in the long run. 0.63

00:42:56.000 And the American people don't see how it benefits the United States, even though you see all over X right now, there are people making arguments, myself included, that this is more about China for the U.S. than it is for Iran.

00:43:09.000 But people that are on X and don't kind of look at the big picture, they really don't believe that.

00:43:16.000 They think this is all about doing Israel's bidding, you know.

00:43:20.000 And that's an important point that obviously you can't have this discussion without bringing in Israel.

00:43:27.000 If you look at, you know, really like the past six months, especially, Israel has become a major talking point, right?

00:43:34.000 Especially among, you know, you mentioned the horseshoe, right?

00:43:36.000 You had people on the kind of the more far right and also on the left.

00:43:41.000 And there's a lot of truth to that, right?

00:43:45.000 There's a lot of concern about AIPAC.

00:43:47.000 There's a lot of concern about some things that tie into Israel.

00:43:49.000 However, I don't think that we can look at this without looking at what is the role of the CCP, because even a lot of the agitation around Israel, even if it's grounded in absolute truth, right?

00:44:05.000 It's still something you have to look at and say, okay, how is this helping China?

00:44:09.000 Because what I've seen with this is I've seen that, because in my own podcast, I've covered China extensively, right?

00:44:17.000 It's part of my adult life has been trying to expose the atrocities specifically of the Chinese Communist Party, right?

00:44:24.000 And so I'm seeing a lot of people on the right that are actually becoming pro-China amidst this, which is really interesting, but it's really concerning to me because I'm seeing people saying, oh, there's no such thing as a Uyghur genocide.

00:44:39.000 It's like one of the first interviews I did in my own podcast, I interviewed a surgeon that fled China because he was forced to do live organ harvesting on Falun Gong, right? 0.55

00:44:50.000 He literally explained the process of how that happened to him when he started cutting this person over open after a kind of a purposely botched execution.

00:44:59.000 And the guy's heart was still beating as he was removing organs, right?

00:45:02.000 This is what the CCP is doing.

00:45:04.000 And I mean, it is, but I'm seeing, but even he told me that was back then.

00:45:07.000 He goes, I asked him about the Uyghur concentration camps.

00:45:09.000 He goes, oh, absolutely.

00:45:10.000 He goes, you realize that the CCP sells a lot of their organs to wealthy Middle Easterners. 0.88

00:45:16.000 You know what those Middle Easterners want? 1.00

00:45:18.000 They want halal organs. 1.00

00:45:19.000 So having this massive database of Muslim organs in China is huge.

00:45:26.000 And so I'm seeing though that there's, again, there's propaganda and there are information campaigns happening on so many angles, but I'm seeing that I absolutely think that the CCP has amplified a lot of the Israel stuff to a point.

00:45:41.000 Again, there's a lot of strong voices on the conservative side that are saying, gosh, wow, look at China.

00:45:47.000 Look how clean China is.

00:45:48.000 Look at their big, beautiful cities.

00:45:50.000 Look at their infrastructure versus our infrastructure here.

00:45:52.000 Well, China's not in all these wars.

00:45:55.000 China's not doing this, but you have to realize that, yeah, like, you know, it's odd to see people on the right that kind of have taken on anti-Western sentiment.

00:46:04.000 And a lot of that, I think, is because of the fact that the U.S. has had such botched adventurism in the past.

00:46:12.000 They have decided to engage in wars that were poorly thought out, or at the very least, engage in rebuilding of countries after wars that has not panned out the way that the people in power thought that it was going to.

00:46:29.000 And so it makes perfect sense that people are like, well, you know, maybe, you know, it's like the me, maybe we're the baddies.

00:46:34.000 And while I don't agree with that, I don't think so at all.

00:46:37.000 I think that there have been significant mistakes made, but that doesn't mean that the United States is a net negative for the world.

00:46:44.000 I understand why people would kind of get that inclination.

00:46:48.000 Do you think that the influence of China on people here in the U.S. is shaping the opinion that they have of Israel?

00:47:00.000 Or do you think that that's something that is just organic?

00:47:04.000 I think China, from what I understand, China and Israel's relationship isn't like super frosty.

00:47:09.000 They kind of stay out of each other's way.

00:47:10.000 They don't really have any overlapping interests for the most part beyond China generally wants the Iranian regime obviously to be stable and Israel obviously doesn't.

00:47:18.000 But I don't see them like really going to blows.

00:47:20.000 I don't think the CCP would like expend too many resources to try and like foment serious anti-Israel sentiment.

00:47:25.000 That seems to be more coming from Qatar, Iran itself.

00:47:30.000 That's pretty much it.

00:47:31.000 I would say that's like really trying to foment this in the United States.

00:47:35.000 I do think Rubio is actually saying this.

00:47:38.000 This is a calculated statement.

00:47:39.000 I don't think this is like people are, oh, a Freudian slip.

00:47:41.000 He admitted that Israel pushed America into the situation.

00:47:44.000 I think he's saying this for a reason.

00:47:46.000 Some people have speculated one thing or another.

00:47:48.000 I think it's kind of a warning shot actually to Israel to say like, hey, we can back out whenever we want and you should be left. 0.78

00:47:54.000 Again, people made this point.

00:47:55.000 Lomez actually made a great point where he's saying, ultimately, we should be looking now to start handing off responsibilities to, again, the countries that this directly affects.

00:48:03.000 So mostly to Israel, but also to these Gulf states that, again, this is in their interest, not so much ours.

00:48:08.000 I do think it's true.

00:48:09.000 I wish a lot of people, because this whole Israel conversation has gotten so toxic, like it really has, where you can't even like say it without one side accusing you of being a Zionist and then the other side accusing you of being like, you know, Hitler reincarnated or whatever.

00:48:23.000 I think it's like, let's just cut through it.

00:48:24.000 Cernovich just said it.

00:48:25.000 Like, he's like, let's just cut through it.

00:48:26.000 Obviously, the pro-Israel lobby, this is their thing.

00:48:30.000 Again, the lobby, this is the primary driver behind this.

00:48:33.000 Like, Trump in a vacuum would still probably be anti-Iran.

00:48:38.000 Like, let's not pretend that it's only because of the pro-Israel lobby that Trump doesn't want Iran to have a nuke.

00:48:44.000 Like, in a vacuum, Trump would still not want Iran to have a nuke because Iran having a nuke is terrible for us.

00:48:49.000 But if this is true, I mean, if this is the situation, the pro-Israel lobby now is to give us, let's get the SAVE Act.

00:48:54.000 Like, start throwing us some bones, right?

00:48:55.000 Like, we took out the trash.

00:48:58.000 I hate to say it, but you kind of saw it last summer.

00:49:00.000 The Big Beautiful Bill passes a week after we strike Iran the first time. 1.00

00:49:03.000 So it's like, throw us a few bones.

00:49:05.000 Start whipping these senators into shape because it's like, let's make it happen. 0.78

00:49:08.000 Yeah.

00:49:09.000 So, Elad, do you have any thoughts on what kind of influence China has on the situation with Israel?

00:49:18.000 And obviously, like I said, this is something that's very good for Israel.

00:49:22.000 Of course, if the Mulas are taken out of Iran, if there's no more, you know, if it were to be a situation where, say, hypothetically, the Shah were back in power, they had elections, that's clearly very good for Israel. 0.92

00:49:36.000 And there's going to be people that no matter what happens, they're going to say, yep, that was for Israel.

00:49:39.000 But do you think that the broader picture is something worth trying to focus on?

00:49:44.000 Or do you think that the people that are kind of anti-Israel are just going to say that and we can't make any kind of advances in the, I guess, the propaganda side?

00:49:55.000 So for many reasons, many people's top issue is Israel and they will be blinded by that.

00:50:01.000 And that's how they will go one way or another, just depending strictly on what Israel is doing.

00:50:06.000 As far as China goes, I thought you made a really good point earlier about the petro dollar, because as I understand, one of the major underminings of the petro dollar, it's not too major, but like they could potentially grow into something bigger is how oil is sold from Iran to China in Yuan.

00:50:24.000 Yuan, yeah, instead of 80% of it, too.

00:50:26.000 Instead of the dollar.

00:50:27.000 I'm reading that Iran supplies roughly 10 to 13% of China's total crude oil.

00:50:33.000 So this would be a big deal because China imports already something like 80% of its oil.

00:50:38.000 Any bites out of that is a huge deal to them.

00:50:40.000 We're obviously just finishing up the job in Venezuela.

00:50:43.000 They got a small amount of oil sending over to China.

00:50:46.000 So this is only going to add to that.

00:50:48.000 So I think the China angle is big here, but I don't know how much realistically China was ever going to do.

00:50:54.000 Once they saw that Iran is weak, nobody wants a weak ally and they're essentially to be disposed of. 1.00

00:51:00.000 So once they ran out of their usefulness, China just said, okay, F this, we're not going to waste any of our time on resources on this.

00:51:06.000 10% of our oil isn't great to lose, but I'm sure they'll be willing to import it elsewhere.

00:51:12.000 I thought one of the fascinating things about this too is that people forget how close China and Iran were at one point.

00:51:19.000 A lot of the materials and chemicals, particularly for the ballistic missiles, were sent to Iran from China.

00:51:25.000 And that's one of their major arms that's threatening us at this point.

00:51:29.000 I wrote a piece on my Patreon, and I think that actually China is the larger piece for the U.S. Obviously, Israel was going to do what they're going to do. 0.99

00:51:38.000 And I think that everything that Secretary Rubio said stands true.

00:51:42.000 Like if the Israelis attack Iran, Iran's going to look at it as if it was attack from the United States.

00:51:50.000 They're going to attack us.

00:51:52.000 But if you want to go ahead and read about it, it's on my Patreon.

00:51:55.000 It's patreon.com slash Philademains.

00:51:57.000 But I do think that China is broadly the big thing.

00:52:00.000 And this plays into the idea, this actually does play into the idea of changing the focus from Europe to the Western Hemisphere because China was involved in Venezuela.

00:52:13.000 China's involved in Cuba.

00:52:15.000 And there's arguments that Cuba's going to fall of their own volition.

00:52:19.000 There's also people talking about the State Department being in contact with people in Cuba.

00:52:24.000 Raul Castro's grandson, I think, is the guy that's in charge.

00:52:28.000 Now, I could be getting that wrong.

00:52:30.000 But the point being, the U.S. is already positioning itself to have some kind of influence on a post-communist Cuba.

00:52:37.000 And that's, again, something that hurts China.

00:52:39.000 There was the situation with the Panama Canal where China was trying to build, I believe, ports on either side or what have you.

00:52:45.000 And the U.S. is trying to interpret the U.S. has successfully stopped that from happening.

00:52:51.000 All of this stuff is trying to take power away from China.

00:52:56.000 So that way the United States doesn't have to get into a hot war with China.

00:52:59.000 So you were going to say something?

00:53:01.000 Yeah, if we zoom out a little bit and think of this more in the big picture and especially in the second Trump administration, I think what we should understand here is this is a reinvigoration of U.S. hegemony around the world.

00:53:11.000 Initially, people only suspected that, no, this is just Don Roe doctrine.

00:53:15.000 This is just in the Western Hemisphere.

00:53:17.000 No, he's only going to do stuff in Venezuela.

00:53:19.000 He wouldn't dare to expand this around the world.

00:53:22.000 You know, they were talking about spheres of influence.

00:53:24.000 I was hearing this so much in the liberal media.

00:53:25.000 No, he's going to abandon different parts of the world.

00:53:27.000 He's giving Ukraine to Putin and Europe to Putin, and he's giving all of Asia to Xi Jinping.

00:53:32.000 But that couldn't be further from the truth.

00:53:35.000 The president is strengthening his allies and then taking away the allies of our enemies.

00:53:40.000 So we are destroying China's allies. 0.53

00:53:42.000 You know, as far as what Russia is doing, they've proven to be ineffective in taking over Ukraine, mostly thanks to our support and arms. 0.99

00:53:49.000 No thanks to those bum Europeans who I don't think we give enough shit to. 1.00

00:53:52.000 And now what we're seeing going on in Israel, of course, in the Caribbean and South America with Venezuela, as you also mentioned, the Panama Canal. 0.99

00:54:01.000 So I think what we should be understanding from this is that the Americans and President Trump in particular is just knocking off China's allies one by one.

00:54:08.000 And soon enough, it won't make any sense for China to want to make a move because they lack the allies to do so.

00:54:14.000 So next on the list, I think we're likely to see China.

00:54:16.000 Russia's bogged down in Ukraine.

00:54:18.000 China almost has no other allies to help them make or would support them in making a major move on Taiwan.

00:54:23.000 And they should feel pretty isolated right now.

00:54:25.000 Like, who are China's close allies that are nice and strong?

00:54:28.000 Russia's proven, I think, to be very weak.

00:54:31.000 Again, Cuba is weak.

00:54:34.000 Venezuela is weak.

00:54:35.000 Iran's the weakest it's ever looked ever. 1.00

00:54:38.000 And they got their Ayatollah killed. 1.00

00:54:40.000 And, you know, the repercussions to that was next to nothing to we were worried about World War III as a result of this shit. 1.00

00:54:47.000 Nothing happened. 0.99

00:54:48.000 So China running out of allies, being put in a ship position.

00:54:51.000 U.S. hegemony is here to stay.

00:54:54.000 And I'm so tired of hearing this third world this talks about, talking about BRICS and spheres of influence. 1.00

00:54:59.000 And you guys are all morons with no real understanding of how the world works. 0.99

00:55:03.000 But I'm glad the president's here to upend your worldview of how things should and can go. 1.00

00:55:07.000 Dude, Burkina Faso just signed a trade deal with Guyana to import tomato concentrate.

00:55:11.000 You're saying BRICS is dead?

00:55:13.000 Dude, what are you talking about?

00:55:14.000 It was never a thing.

00:55:16.000 We're never going into multipolarity.

00:55:18.000 Unipolarity is actually a good thing. 1.00

00:55:20.000 American values are good and Chinese values are bad. 1.00

00:55:23.000 But to be fair, I think it's that simple.

00:55:26.000 The idea that we were trending towards a multipolar world was like the consensus until like four years ago when President Trump came back, right?

00:55:32.000 Well, President Trump, and I'm a Trump glazer, but also when Russia just failed so dramatically.

00:55:37.000 That kind of like, I actually think Trump in the first term and the back of us, maybe not in the back of us, but his political advisors are certainly like making that calculation that maybe, well, no, maybe we are going towards a multipolar world.

00:55:47.000 And then Russia and then COVID hits and China like gets a significant thing.

00:55:50.000 Maybe we should give the military industrial complex some credit.

00:55:54.000 I know we do a lot of railing on them, but why do you think Ukraine was able to fend off Russians even more than one day? 0.96

00:55:59.000 Thanks to American largesse.

00:56:01.000 Our military industrial complex is what fended off the Russians. 0.99

00:56:04.000 Even now, we're giving arms.

00:56:06.000 We're selling arms to the Europeans who are just giving them to the Ukrainians. 0.99

00:56:09.000 So it's all coming back to us.

00:56:11.000 And I think it's a good thing.

00:56:12.000 American values, again, are good.

00:56:14.000 And if you think American values are good, I think it's a good thing in trying to maintain that hegemony.

00:56:18.000 Yeah, well, but it's to your point.

00:56:20.000 I mean, like, the idea of a multipolar world, it's like, we're not even really pushing that hard to maintain it.

00:56:26.000 Like, it's just these countries, they just cannot get it together.

00:56:29.000 To your point, like, BRICS was just a meme.

00:56:32.000 It's Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa.

00:56:35.000 Well, because South Africa, it's laughable on the face.

00:56:37.000 China and India claim each other's land.

00:56:40.000 And also, India, by and large, is like an ally of the United States.

00:56:43.000 Saudi Arabia is our ally.

00:56:44.000 Yeah, well, the S is South Africa and BRICS, which is hilarious. 1.00

00:56:47.000 And then Russia.

00:56:49.000 I know, right?

00:56:50.000 And then Russia and China duke over Central Asia all the time.

00:56:53.000 Like they're natural adversaries.

00:56:55.000 It's just they both hate the United States.

00:56:56.000 So that's what pushes them together.

00:56:58.000 And then Brazil.

00:56:59.000 Dude, the more I think about it.

00:57:00.000 It's like all the arms we're sending to Ukraine, and we still have more arms to fight a battle in Iran. 0.65

00:57:06.000 We're able to battle the Houthis.

00:57:08.000 We're able to do, I won't call it multi-front, but we are funding all of the arms for a lot of these countries.

00:57:13.000 Again, Israel is getting most of their arms from. 0.61

00:57:15.000 I guess the concern comes in is: look, if we're able to make such decisive action in Iran, why can't we just like have blanket third world migration ban?

00:57:25.000 Why can't we like actually have like a remite great?

00:57:27.000 Like I know we're starting, we're getting mass deportations, but why can't we get something dramatic?

00:57:34.000 Because we can get something dramatic in Venezuela.

00:57:36.000 We can get something dramatic in Iran.

00:57:38.000 We can get things, we can get dramatic when we need to.

00:57:40.000 We can get some shocking on when we need to.

00:57:41.000 How about we get some shocking on Queens, New York?

00:57:43.000 Because it's like half foreign born. 0.99

00:57:44.000 Like, let's go.

00:57:45.000 Come on, Trump.

00:57:45.000 Let's go.

00:57:45.000 Come on.

00:57:47.000 I think if the administration were to really ramp up the deportations and actually put some real numbers up, numbers that were satisfying the people on the right, I think that would actually, that would pay a lot of dividends.

00:58:03.000 Right.

00:58:03.000 Because think how much political capital he's spending right now on Iran.

00:58:06.000 Look, I actually agree that mass deportation. 0.63

00:58:09.000 I know we like to say, oh, it's really popular.

00:58:11.000 If Trump started rounding people up and throwing them in vans and mass, that would be very unpopular.

00:58:15.000 I'd much rather spend political capital on that than this dice roll in Iran, which is like, it's a dice roll. 0.99

00:58:21.000 I mean, I know the operation initially was successful, but like long term, we don't even, we still don't know what the goals are.

00:58:26.000 We still don't know like what the victory condition is.

00:58:28.000 Hold on.

00:58:29.000 I mean, well, the president says so many things.

00:58:31.000 I know everyone in the cabinet's disagreeing with each other.

00:58:34.000 The Secretary of State was pretty clear when he looked what he did.

00:58:36.000 The president said something different.

00:58:38.000 The president said something different.

00:58:40.000 What the president said?

00:58:40.000 The president said something.

00:58:41.000 The president talks about regime change.

00:58:42.000 Yeah.

00:58:43.000 And Marco didn't.

00:58:43.000 Consistently.

00:58:44.000 He encouraged it.

00:58:45.000 And him and Nettie say that.

00:58:45.000 Yeah.

00:58:47.000 They're both telling people, hey, take over.

00:58:49.000 And then JD Vance just told the New York, he just told the New York Times, we're not putting any boots on the ground.

00:58:54.000 So it's like, what is going on?

00:58:56.000 Maybe it's flooding the zone.

00:58:57.000 Maybe like this is a psyop and it's meant to like cook my brain.

00:59:00.000 I think there's many things in life.

00:59:02.000 It comes down.

00:59:03.000 People change how they feel based on the outcome.

00:59:06.000 Americans, breaking news. 1.00

00:59:07.000 We like fucking winners and we don't like losers. 0.99

00:59:10.000 So if this goes smoothly and we win the war, then yeah, the public will widely be supportive. 0.99

00:59:15.000 And the president knows this more than anybody else.

00:59:16.000 The president loves winning.

00:59:18.000 He is a winner.

00:59:19.000 And that's what this is about.

00:59:20.000 Obviously, if things go astray, we'll be.

00:59:22.000 I mean, that's honestly, that's where I'm at.

00:59:24.000 Like, I mean, I don't, I don't know exactly what the, like you guys said, I don't know exactly what the actual goal is.

00:59:31.000 But if the, if the Iranian regime is taken out and we don't have a lot of casualties, I'm going to be, all right, well, I guess that was a good idea. 0.99

00:59:39.000 And if there's significant casualties or the president, like I said earlier, like something happens and the president turns tail and runs, then the president's going to be a pariah and it's going to be like, well, he was terrible.

00:59:50.000 That was a terrible idea.

00:59:51.000 And he shouldn't have done it.

00:59:53.000 We shouldn't have elected him again.

00:59:55.000 As I understand, and the administration has been saying a lot, and my word is not bond, so don't take it at face value, is to try to change the regime to a regime that doesn't have ambitions of a nuclear weapon or supporting proxies at the cost of as little soldiers as possible.

01:00:13.000 I think that's what the formula is roughly coming down to.

01:00:16.000 It's such an because if that were the case, we would have saw it in Venezuela already.

01:00:21.000 The fact that they're able to get somebody who's more amendable to it's still the deputy.

01:00:25.000 Yeah.

01:00:26.000 So, but she, because what happens is when you whip those people in the shape, she just comes out and she's like, okay, let's make a deal. 1.00

01:00:31.000 Like, what do you want from us?

01:00:32.000 I think that's what's going to happen in Iran. 0.81

01:00:33.000 Is again, like, we're going to get like the Islamists in Iran that just have give no faith in that. 0.97

01:00:39.000 I don't trust the fifth string Ayatollah Islamists or the sixth string. 1.00

01:00:43.000 I think they're all on a 10-day contract. 0.98

01:00:45.000 They're all Muslim extremists. 1.00

01:00:46.000 What are the chances of having some kind of resolution like in Venezuela where you take out the top guys and then the new guys come in and say, well, they're just going to take me out if I don't. 0.93

01:00:54.000 That's what I'm saying.

01:00:55.000 So I think what's, I don't think regime change, I don't think that's where the president's head is at if his words are anything to go by.

01:01:01.000 I know that's why I'm like, so he keeps saying it.

01:01:01.000 He keeps saying rise up.

01:01:04.000 But like, I just can't.

01:01:05.000 That would take forever.

01:01:07.000 It would extend it to the midterms.

01:01:07.000 That would take forever.

01:01:09.000 Where instead, you just do what you did in Venezuela.

01:01:11.000 It's just, if you drop enough bombs on them, they'll sign whatever. 0.58

01:01:14.000 That's why it needs to happen quick.

01:01:15.000 If it doesn't happen within the first two months, then it becomes a quagmire.

01:01:18.000 Also, from what I understand, a lot of their dignitaries are still in Switzerland.

01:01:21.000 So like Witkoff could just fly over there, show them a slide of the contract and say, hey, we're going to kill the eighth guy in line.

01:01:26.000 So you better sign this contract.

01:01:27.000 You're never going to build a nuclear weapon again.

01:01:29.000 I like how they just kill your way through it to a nicer regime.

01:01:32.000 I mean, that's what war is.

01:01:33.000 Facilitates the protesters having the opportunity.

01:01:36.000 I walked around DC all weekend and didn't feel like threatened at all.

01:01:39.000 But I also say I don't have faith in Iran not just falling into a civil war. 0.99

01:01:43.000 I don't know how much you guys know about domestic Iranian politics, but there's a ton of secular young people, and then there's the old Shah or the Shah's son or something.

01:01:52.000 Then there's the Islamists. 0.93

01:01:53.000 And then there's a bunch of Arabs.

01:01:55.000 There's a bunch of Kurds who all have their different interests.

01:01:58.000 So I don't see how this country, if they aren't able to quickly form a cohesive government, doesn't fall into civil war if the president washes his hands of this. 1.00

01:02:05.000 If he's not able to quickly, you know, within the four, five, six weeks, get regime change, he'll just say, fuck it. 0.98

01:02:12.000 You guys stay a weak regime and hope somebody else takes over and it'll probably just lead to civil war. 0.98

01:02:17.000 Well, I mean, if that's the case, then, you know, again, Donald Trump is going to go down in history as just another American that meddled in the Middle East and added chaos.

01:02:26.000 Civil war in Iran is a better option than them acquiring nuclear weapons. 0.99

01:02:31.000 It's not for the United States and it's not for his legacy.

01:02:33.000 It's not better for the United States for Iran to be in a civil war instead of weapons?

01:02:38.000 I don't think that gets back to the press here.

01:02:41.000 Not for the president's legacy.

01:02:43.000 If the civil war breaks out in Iran, that's not going to be front page news in America.

01:02:46.000 No, but the people that are pissed that the U.S. went in, they'll know about it.

01:02:50.000 Those people are not.

01:02:53.000 In two weeks, Trump's approval rating is not going to change.

01:02:56.000 Four weeks is when his approval rating will change because that's when the oil prices will be impacted.

01:03:00.000 Because again, the average Americans are seeing every here.

01:03:03.000 This is what's happening right now in every living room across the United States.

01:03:06.000 It's a baby boomer half asleep with like three beers in.

01:03:09.000 And he's watching Fox Zoom.

01:03:10.000 He's like, whoa, what are they doing?

01:03:12.000 What's going on over there?

01:03:14.000 What's wrong with them?

01:03:14.000 What do they do?

01:03:16.000 They don't have a conception of geopolitical.

01:03:18.000 I'm sorry.

01:03:19.000 That turns out kind of true.

01:03:20.000 We don't have a geopolitical concept.

01:03:21.000 That might have been the case.

01:03:22.000 That might have been a case 20 years ago.

01:03:24.000 15 years ago.

01:03:25.000 But the point that I'm making is now the people that are activated on the internet that are upset, that are angry that we're going in.

01:03:32.000 5% of the population.

01:03:33.000 Like Epstein said they chimped for months and it didn't impact this approval rating.

01:03:37.000 But I think that they will make enough noise, and I think that they are a block that is going to have an impact.

01:03:43.000 They couldn't even stop America from like – like they literally could not do anything about Trump going into Trump.

01:03:49.000 Again, you're not just talking about – you're not just talking about the – And I'm with – I agree with them.

01:03:52.000 I'm just saying like they're – You're not – You're not just talking about the right, though.

01:03:56.000 And I think, or at least I'm not just talking about the right, and I think you are.

01:03:59.000 The left, the coat pink people, the awfuls. 0.99

01:04:02.000 They're not going to vote for them.

01:04:03.000 No, they're not going to, but they'll make enough noise where it's going to be something that's going to be on the minds of the American people.

01:04:10.000 If the American military loses a war, loses a war, that's not something that's going to be.

01:04:16.000 We don't lose.

01:04:16.000 We get bored.

01:04:17.000 That's why I said that.

01:04:18.000 Even still, it's not going to be something that's going to be brushed on the left.

01:04:20.000 It changes in four weeks.

01:04:21.000 That's the approval.

01:04:22.000 His approval rating will change in four weeks because that's when it's going to become clear was this a success or not.

01:04:26.000 If Iran has a civil war, I imagine, and I don't know for sure, but I imagine that will affect gas prices and gas prices is something that affects every American, and they're going to want to know why they're spending $6 a gallon or what have you.

01:04:40.000 Did you guys want to touch upon how the embassy in Pakistan, I believe, the U.S.-American embassy in Pakistan?

01:04:47.000 We didn't bring up any stories about it, but I mean, look, if you try to go after a U.S. embassy, if you break in, the Marines are going to shoot you.

01:04:58.000 Like, it's not, this isn't, and people were talking about Benghazi.

01:05:02.000 What? 0.99

01:05:02.000 No, yeah, they're going to shoot you. 0.99

01:05:04.000 They're waiting for the opportunity. 0.97

01:05:05.000 Yeah.

01:05:06.000 He's like, he's a Marines.

01:05:07.000 They will.

01:05:08.000 They're sitting there with their finger on the trigger.

01:05:09.000 The Marines will put the Krayns down just to pick up the rifle, right? 1.00

01:05:14.000 So, like, there were people that are saying, oh, they'll be like, oh, this is like Benghazi, or they're not going to do another Benghazi.

01:05:21.000 Benghazi wasn't.

01:05:22.000 Yeah, but Benghazi was an outpost.

01:05:22.000 It was in the spin.

01:05:25.000 An actual embassy is a different animal, right?

01:05:27.000 Like the outpost in Benghazi was not staffed by active duty Marines.

01:05:33.000 There are Marines armed with a lot of weapons in the embassy, particularly in a place that's not particularly friendly like Pakistan.

01:05:42.000 And the people that were going after the embassy misunderstood what they were doing.

01:05:47.000 And it cost a lot of them their lives.

01:05:49.000 The Marines do not play.

01:05:52.000 They saw them break into the compound.

01:05:55.000 They got to this one last gate where if they got through the gate, they would be able to squirt out and scatter.

01:06:01.000 And the Marines made sure that they were not going to get through that gate.

01:06:04.000 And they started shooting people.

01:06:07.000 And the Marines are riflemen first. 0.97

01:06:10.000 They can shoot.

01:06:11.000 The Pakistanis aren't even belligerents in this war, but they still have more casualties than the Americans and Israelis combatants.

01:06:18.000 Yeah, that's true.

01:06:19.000 We're going to jump to this story for a little levity.

01:06:22.000 From the Jerusalem Post, Israel's Iron Beam Laser.

01:06:25.000 What can it do?

01:06:26.000 And was it used against missiles from Lebanon?

01:06:28.000 Analysis.

01:06:29.000 The Jews have lasers. 1.00

01:06:32.000 We've known about the GOIBEM for a while.

01:06:34.000 Yeah.

01:06:34.000 And they've like rebranded.

01:06:36.000 A lot, can you explain to us the rebranding idea?

01:06:37.000 Because Goybeam was a classic.

01:06:40.000 I thought it was.

01:06:41.000 What's it?

01:06:42.000 What's the GOID beam?

01:06:44.000 How do they keep making such technological leaps and bounds?

01:06:47.000 Maybe it's...

01:06:48.000 This is what they do.

01:06:49.000 They...

01:06:50.000 They deploy the goybeam and every girl that talks about it. 1.00

01:06:52.000 From the Jerusalem Post on Monday morning, a number of social media accounts circulated what they believed was an example of lasers intercepting Hezbollah rockets.

01:07:01.000 The video showed rockets being launched from Lebanon, and many of the rockets appeared to explode soon after liftoff.

01:07:07.000 The video did not show lasers intercepting rockets, but the mass interest in the new technology is clear.

01:07:11.000 Look, most of the time, you can't actually see lasers, right?

01:07:16.000 So we're going to play the video so you can see it.

01:07:21.000 They're not getting all that far into the air. 0.99

01:07:24.000 Why don't we do swaggy shit like this? 0.98

01:07:25.000 Why is that? 0.99

01:07:27.000 That's what the golden dome is supposed to be.

01:07:27.000 That's all the fun.

01:07:30.000 Dude, you know?

01:07:31.000 I want the goybeam.

01:07:32.000 All the money we give them, they won't give us a goybeam. 0.99

01:07:34.000 Unreal.

01:07:36.000 I do imagine that the United States and Israel are actually sharing this technology.

01:07:40.000 I'm sure they're collaborating on it.

01:07:41.000 Zap cartel members.

01:07:43.000 Well, I mean, that's not a rocket.

01:07:45.000 Well, the goy beam and just have like a guy on the oh, so like the Spartan laser, yeah, like yeah, like the predator, right?

01:07:51.000 Yeah, three little dots.

01:07:52.000 There you go.

01:07:53.000 Yeah, but the thing is, is like our own DOD, I mean, it is a DOD.

01:07:57.000 They on Twitter, they recently confirm.

01:08:00.000 It's like, yeah, we have we have dues.

01:08:02.000 We have direct energy weapons, yep.

01:08:04.000 I mean, you know, they and they can be from space.

01:08:06.000 Like these things mount to the you know fronts of airplanes.

01:08:08.000 I'm sure they can mount to satellites.

01:08:10.000 Like the technology is there.

01:08:11.000 I mean, this is stuff that was talked about in the Reagan administration for Star Wars, right?

01:08:15.000 Putting them in on satellites or putting lasers on aircraft that are constantly on patrol.

01:08:22.000 Well, excuse me.

01:08:23.000 I mean, the thing is, is that you're talking about the sharing of technology between Israel and the U.S.

01:08:30.000 The technology that our government has, our military has, is probably 50 years beyond what we're being shown, right?

01:08:37.000 And that's just one of the things that you hear people talk about insiders coming out and whistleblowers.

01:08:40.000 They're saying that, oh, yeah, like, you know, we were doing this in the 50s.

01:08:44.000 Discombobulator.

01:08:45.000 So, like, I think that our government has technology that is beyond space lasers.

01:08:55.000 We're deploying fighters to some friggin Minneapolis.

01:08:59.000 There's General Grievous in there with lightsabers, which is chopping.

01:09:02.000 That'd be awesome.

01:09:03.000 Well, if I understand correctly, part of the defense of the ships nowadays actually is direct energy weapons, right?

01:09:12.000 They're loaded up onto Aegis cruisers or whatever, and they can actually defeat.

01:09:16.000 That's why I said earlier, you know, it's like it may be kind of far-fetched, the idea that a cruise missile would get through.

01:09:24.000 But, you know, because of the fact that the U.S. does have technology that the American people don't know about, the president has said himself, you know, he can't keep his mouth shut at all.

01:09:37.000 He wants to boast about everything.

01:09:38.000 So he's alluded to the fact that the U.S. has technologies the American people don't know about.

01:09:44.000 He's stated it plainly.

01:09:46.000 And so these kind of weapons, if Israel has them, I have to imagine that the U.S. also has them because the U.S. is well known.

01:09:54.000 The U.S. and Israel are well known for sharing technology.

01:09:57.000 From what I understand, they wouldn't actually give us the Iron Dome.

01:10:01.000 They wouldn't give us the technology for the Iron Dome.

01:10:03.000 I don't remember specifically what their reasoning was, but I know this was like a big issue that people said.

01:10:06.000 Because they're stingy.

01:10:08.000 We often, yeah, it was often requested and it wasn't given to us.

01:10:10.000 So now we're having to develop the Golden Dome independently.

01:10:12.000 I had to say that when the loud results were.

01:10:15.000 You better get a goy beam.

01:10:16.000 I do think that I do think that I think that's part of why the U.S. wanted Greenland or wanted a guarantee of military access to Greenland.

01:10:27.000 Because if this particular, you know, this particular video shows the rockets just taking off and being shot, obviously the proximity of Israel to Lebanon is significantly closer than the U.S. to Russia.

01:10:43.000 But if you have something stationed in Greenland that's significantly further away from the U.S., it's much closer to where Russia's missiles would be coming from.

01:10:54.000 So it does make sense that they would be like, hey, you know, we want to be able to position these types of technologies up there.

01:11:00.000 Well, and when the Golden Dome agreement was, or when it was like announced, they also said the Canadians are in.

01:11:05.000 The Canadians want it as well.

01:11:06.000 We're just going to build it for them.

01:11:07.000 So we're literally going to build a giant force field above right above us.

01:11:11.000 Thank goodness the Canadians are in.

01:11:13.000 Right.

01:11:13.000 Well, because they all live within like 20 miles of the border.

01:11:15.000 So you guys don't even notice it anyway.

01:11:17.000 No, they like some moose like hitting it.

01:11:19.000 They are.

01:11:20.000 Some igloos around or whatever. 0.89

01:11:21.000 They're all real close to the U.S. and they love the crap on us, but they live under the protection of the United States military. 0.91

01:11:27.000 They barely have a military of their own. 0.96

01:11:29.000 Yes, they won't even notice us there.

01:11:31.000 Yeah.

01:11:32.000 There's more Chinese military than Canadian military in Canada.

01:11:36.000 That's a horrible statement, but it's actually probably true.

01:11:41.000 All right, we're going to jump to this one here.

01:11:44.000 From the Daily Mail, a mysterious earthquake swarm hits Nevada near top secret base used for testing nuclear weapons.

01:11:52.000 A series of mysterious earthquakes has been recorded near one of America's most secretive bases used for nuclear testing.

01:11:58.000 Over the last day, the U.S. Geological Survey, USGS, has detected 16 moderate tremors, all stronger than 2.5 in magnitude, in the vicinity of Taunapoa test range in Nevada, better known as Area 52.

01:12:11.000 Both Area 52 and its more famous neighbor, Area 51, sit on a massive complex just north of Las Vegas called the Nevada Test and Training Range.

01:12:19.000 For decades, it has been believed the U.S. military has carried out experimental aircraft testing as well as nuclear weapons research in this remote area.

01:12:25.000 Now, scientists have monitored over 100 seismic events within 50 miles of the Tunapoa test range in just the last week.

01:12:32.000 These earthquakes have ranged from very small shock waves between 1 and 1.9 in magnitude to minor earthquakes stronger than 3.0, which could be felt by anyone at ground level nearby.

01:12:42.000 Now, this is something that Donald Trump has actually been talking about.

01:12:46.000 We haven't had significant nuclear tests in a long time.

01:12:50.000 There's definitely not been any above-ground tests.

01:12:52.000 I think I'm not sure when the subterranean tests were ended, but the United States has a responsibility to make sure that our nuclear deterrent is functional.

01:13:04.000 And Donald Trump has alluded to being interested in resuming tests.

01:13:08.000 Do you guys think, Seth, do you think this is actual testing or do you think that this is something else?

01:13:16.000 I don't think it's natural earthquakes.

01:13:17.000 It's a conspiracy theory.

01:13:20.000 That's for sure.

01:13:22.000 I mean, we also, we know that our government has massive dumps, right?

01:13:27.000 You know, deep underground military bases, right?

01:13:29.000 This is, you know, with tunnels and there's a lot of information about this that's not this conspiracy realm.

01:13:35.000 So, I mean, yeah, are they, there's something going on there, whether it's nuclear testing.

01:13:42.000 I mean, it's also, I mean, just to me, it seems kind of strange that if you're testing nuclear weapons, and maybe I'm not a nuclear expert, but why would you test them underground?

01:13:53.000 To prevent fallout.

01:13:54.000 That was the argument.

01:13:56.000 And there was a long time where they stopped doing tests above ground, but they were continuing to do tests below.

01:14:02.000 I guess the question is how, like, how, how, like, how does it work, right?

01:14:05.000 Because I imagine if a nuke goes off under the ground, I would think that there'd be some sort of giant crater unless they're doing it so deep.

01:14:13.000 I mean, I don't know how deep they do them, but underground testing has been a thing for a long time.

01:14:20.000 Yeah, I mean, I think that, again, like I said, if the United States is going to continue to have nuclear weapons, which is probably not in question or not an option, I think tests are something that are a responsibility.

01:14:33.000 You know, no matter what the international community says, no matter what any kind of international, the IAEA or whatever says, there is a responsibility of the government to make sure that these weapons are functional.

01:14:49.000 You know, they're the most destructive weapons that the U.S. acknowledges having.

01:14:56.000 And so if they don't, I mean, you don't want to say that you've got these weapons and say, and use them as a deterrent.

01:15:04.000 And then if you come to find out that they don't work or what have you.

01:15:08.000 So, a lot, do you think that these earthquakes are nuclear tests?

01:15:14.000 I do not.

01:15:15.000 I've read some reporting that said, like, it would have had to have been a small nuclear weapon that China was testing for that to be what they picked up on their Richter Scale or what have you.

01:15:23.000 Talking about Nevada.

01:15:25.000 So you walked away, but the mysterious earthquake swarm hits Nevada near top secret base used for testing nuclear weapons.

01:15:25.000 Oh.

01:15:34.000 So the president has talked about wanting to resume nuclear tests.

01:15:38.000 Do you think that they've gotten that program going?

01:15:42.000 I don't think they would have done this test while still being a signatory to the agreement to not test more nuclear weapons.

01:15:48.000 The reason for that being is that it's so easy to actually catch nuclear weapons being tested.

01:15:54.000 So there's no real reason for us to do so.

01:15:57.000 But how do you make sense of 100 seismic events within 50 miles of this area where they're doing this kind of work?

01:16:05.000 It would have had to been multiple nuclear weapons to produce. 0.73

01:16:08.000 But what else would those earthquakes be?

01:16:08.000 Oh, no, I know.

01:16:11.000 Seismic activity underground.

01:16:14.000 I'm not a geologist.

01:16:15.000 Maybe we could get a geologist on it, but like I think to produce that, it would have had to be, I didn't read this article, but it would have had to be multiple nuclear weapons, not just one to create seismic activity that grand.

01:16:30.000 I just don't suspect that to be the case.

01:16:34.000 So, the piece went on to say at this uh the outbreak of earthquake swarms near the nuclear testing site has also come as the U.S. launches a massive bombing campaign against Iran.

01:16:43.000 And President Donald Trump has warned the biggest wave hasn't even happened yet.

01:16:46.000 At the same time, the final remaining nuclear weapons treaty between the U.S. and Russia expired earlier in February, just weeks before the USGS started picking up concentrated swarm underground.

01:16:57.000 Biggest wave hasn't even happened yet, and we already bogged the Ayatollah. 0.97

01:17:00.000 Where's the next one?

01:17:01.000 The strongest of these recent earthquakes took place Sunday at 11:37 Eastern Time when a magnitude 4.3 shockwave rattled a report, a remote point of the Namada Desert, roughly 48 miles northeast of Tan Pa.

01:17:15.000 I mean, if the treaty between the U.S. and Russia expired, you know, and it was just a few weeks ago, doesn't it make doesn't it make a little more sense that maybe the U.S. decided they were going to?

01:17:29.000 Don't we always test our munitions or nukes like on the Marshall Islands, really far away?

01:17:34.000 No, no one ever notices.

01:17:36.000 No, they stopped doing above-ground tests, I believe, in the 60s.

01:17:41.000 Yeah, I stopped thinking about it.

01:17:42.000 The purpose for testing nuclear weapons in this time period is just to flex on your enemies.

01:17:46.000 I don't think they're like, we're not testing our nuclear weapons, as I understand, as a way to see if they actually work.

01:17:51.000 We know they work.

01:17:52.000 I think like half of them don't even work.

01:17:54.000 Well, that's kind of the point of it.

01:17:56.000 Oh, that's not.

01:17:57.000 I don't think we're testing them to see if they're still put them in the garage and wrench a little bit.

01:18:00.000 I think we'd like build new ones, pour some more radiation in.

01:18:03.000 It could also be they're testing some other kind of weapon, right?

01:18:07.000 I mean, it could be Jewish space lasers being tested underground in Area 51, right? 0.62

01:18:11.000 Maybe they're firing off at alien UFOs and underground, you know.

01:18:15.000 But in all honesty, though, it could be something that we're just not familiar with.

01:18:18.000 Like, it could be some sort of other, you know, Epstein might be hiding down there and he gives off seismic vibrations.

01:18:27.000 Did you hear that New York financier Jeffrey Epstein was killed in a strike in Tel Aviv? 0.80

01:18:30.000 I thought that was quite silly. 0.99

01:18:32.000 The Iranians, because they hate pedophiles. 1.00

01:18:34.000 Yeah. 0.99

01:18:34.000 They were taking him out. 0.99

01:18:35.000 Why?

01:18:36.000 This is why this breaks off the sand.

01:18:36.000 Yeah.

01:18:39.000 So we're going to go to Super Chats.

01:18:40.000 We should go to Super Chat.

01:18:41.000 I think we're going to go to Super Chats now.

01:18:42.000 I think it's so chat time.

01:18:44.000 Yeah.

01:18:44.000 So smash the like button, share the show with all your friends.

01:18:47.000 Head on over to rumble.com so you can join us for the after show, which is coming up at 10 p.m. here.

01:18:53.000 It's uncensored, and we don't have to worry about any kind of YouTube censorship or anything.

01:18:59.000 And then head on over to Timcast.com, join the Discord.

01:19:02.000 Discord is where you can find like-minded people.

01:19:05.000 You can meet, hopefully, your girlfriend and have some babies because we need babies here in the United States. 0.98

01:19:11.000 You can call in.

01:19:13.000 You can call into the after-show, ask questions of us, ask questions of our guests.

01:19:17.000 But right now, we're going to go to your super chats.

01:19:20.000 Let's see.

01:19:20.000 And Rumble Rance.

01:19:21.000 Yeah, and Rumble Rants.

01:19:22.000 There you go.

01:19:23.000 What do you got here?

01:19:25.000 Right.

01:19:27.000 You want to run this thing through?

01:19:30.000 Yes, let me get that for you.

01:19:31.000 Oh, here we go.

01:19:34.000 J Dave 93 says, Phil cast is nice, but where is the beanie man? 0.68

01:19:38.000 Did you kill him?

01:19:39.000 No, there was no assault on Tim. 0.57

01:19:42.000 Tim's been sick.

01:19:43.000 His voice is shot.

01:19:44.000 He's been coughing a lot.

01:19:46.000 Tim was unfortunately killed in the airstrike in Tel Aviv.

01:19:48.000 He was there meeting with all high-level Israeli officials so he could develop his takes for the week.

01:19:52.000 And unfortunately, Iran got called their top agent back to Tel Aviv now that the war started kicking off.

01:19:58.000 Makes sense.

01:19:59.000 Obviously, we wanted to release a statement, but since you asked, that's what happened.

01:19:59.000 So I didn't.

01:20:02.000 What do you morons think he's hiding under that fucking beanie? 1.00

01:20:05.000 You idiots. 1.00

01:20:06.000 Think about it. 1.00

01:20:07.000 Think about it.

01:20:08.000 One second, think.

01:20:09.000 God.

01:20:10.000 All right.

01:20:10.000 What else we got?

01:20:11.000 Try Jim says, in keeping with Tim Pool tradition, we are waiting with our daughter and her husband for the birth of our first grandchild, Sophia.

01:20:19.000 There you go.

01:20:19.000 That is awesome.

01:20:20.000 That's what we like over here.

01:20:23.000 Welcome to the world, Sophie.

01:20:25.000 Usually they don't throw the name in.

01:20:26.000 Welcome to the world, Sophia.

01:20:28.000 We need to get you over to Iran. 0.96

01:20:28.000 Get to work. 0.96

01:20:30.000 We got some scores to settle.

01:20:32.000 So once you can start walking and you can hold a goy beam, we're going to send you over there. 1.00

01:20:35.000 Send you in there like the Spartans.

01:20:37.000 Let it fly.

01:20:38.000 Mr. Nebulous says, in Tim Cast Community Tradition, I'm announcing that my wife, Eve Apologist, a regular on the Discord, is currently giving birth to our firstborn, a daughter, Tallulah.

01:20:49.000 Thoughts and prayers are welcome.

01:20:50.000 There you go.

01:20:51.000 That's what we loved it here.

01:20:52.000 Do you think these guys are conceiving during Tim Cast 2?

01:20:55.000 I think.

01:20:56.000 Can you blame them?

01:20:56.000 I mean, only on Mondays when you're here.

01:20:59.000 Just Tim's radio.

01:21:00.000 It's all the beards.

01:21:01.000 It's all the testosterone beards. 0.92

01:21:03.000 When you think about Tim Castarl, you think testosterone, you think like sexual energy, sexual domination, I would argue.

01:21:09.000 Oh, did you?

01:21:10.000 Listen to me.

01:21:11.000 It turns me on too.

01:21:13.000 Yeah, like you know, what happens all across the country is, you know, girls look at their men and then they look at Tim Castirel and they look back at their man and they just sigh.

01:21:21.000 Yeah.

01:21:22.000 There's just the amount of just brill and violence.

01:21:24.000 Mr. Nebulus, I hope that you don't.

01:21:27.000 Welcome to the world, Tallula. 1.00

01:21:28.000 Yeah.

01:21:29.000 Get the work.

01:21:29.000 I hope that you don't like sleeping too much because that is going to be a thing of the past for at least the next six months.

01:21:36.000 I have a four-month-old, and yeah, me and Carter both have a lot of people.

01:21:39.000 I feel you.

01:21:39.000 Yeah, I know.

01:21:41.000 You'll do great, though.

01:21:42.000 Yeah.

01:21:43.000 I see someone's coming a couple of times saying, I thought the bearded dude was going to go live in a compound.

01:21:48.000 I'm not sure where that came from, but I mean, I live out in the middle of nowhere and I've got chickens and guns and Tim's got chickens and guns too.

01:21:56.000 Sound like Tim with hair.

01:21:57.000 I used to have chickens.

01:21:59.000 I no longer have chickens, but I have guns.

01:22:01.000 What do you think people are missing?

01:22:02.000 Like, what's like an essential for like a prepper compound that a lot, like I said, a lot of people are missing.

01:22:07.000 Yeah, we talk about prepper stuff in the actually.

01:22:10.000 If you go to readyscore.com, readyscore.com, I built a, it's free.

01:22:15.000 It's a free preparedness assessment tool.

01:22:18.000 So you go in there, there's a whole questionnaire, and it'll walk you through, and you can do a short one.

01:22:22.000 It's like 90 seconds or a longer one.

01:22:24.000 And it basically, it's like covers every area, like home defense, water, food, medicine.

01:22:30.000 And it gives you a report, kind of give a credit score.

01:22:33.000 It gives you your preparedness score.

01:22:34.000 Your ready score, right?

01:22:35.000 So it's readyscore.com.

01:22:37.000 And that way you can see it's like, okay, your ready score is like a 60 out of 100.

01:22:40.000 And it's like, you're missing in these areas.

01:22:43.000 So like I'd, I'd have to, to know that, I'd have to kind of ask some questions and say, okay, here's what I think that we're missing.

01:22:48.000 But in general, it's a long, long answer, but in general, having a compound, like what you need.

01:22:57.000 The biggest thing, honestly, is just having people.

01:22:59.000 Like that's the, that's probably the most overlooked thing that people think about preparedness is they're thinking like they can be a lone wolf and live in the woods and survive the apocalypse.

01:23:07.000 It's like, no, you got to have a community, right?

01:23:09.000 You got to have people with multiple skills.

01:23:12.000 You know, you have to have for so many reasons, not to mention the fact that, you know, if you want to have your family line continue, you can't just have your own family line interbreeding, right?

01:23:20.000 So you want to have a compound of, but that's a longer discussion.

01:23:24.000 But anyway, yeah, readyscore.com.

01:23:26.000 We built this tool that just to help people.

01:23:28.000 It's around the whole winter storm thing.

01:23:29.000 What do you score at?

01:23:30.000 Yeah.

01:23:30.000 Ready to score.

01:23:31.000 What do you score at?

01:23:31.000 What's that?

01:23:32.000 My ready score, I think, was like around 75 or 80.

01:23:37.000 Got a few, you know, losing.

01:23:39.000 Out of 100.

01:23:39.000 Out of 100?

01:23:40.000 Yeah, cool.

01:23:41.000 It is, I mean, look, people might go ahead and poke because, oh, he made the test and he's not even getting a 99.

01:23:48.000 But it is really difficult to be truly prepared for all of the eventualities.

01:23:54.000 And you're talking to a guy that, you know, I have a lot of things that people expect, you know, preppers to have.

01:24:02.000 I have, you know, my place in New Hampshire is 40 acres deep in the woods and there's all the accoutrements that go along with that kind of stuff.

01:24:09.000 But I'm sure that I probably don't even score 50%.

01:24:13.000 But I do have a well and I have, you know, those kind of things.

01:24:16.000 Power is something I need to work on for.

01:24:20.000 Just figure like if there's a doomsday scenario and there's no Chick-fil-A.

01:24:24.000 There's no college basketball.

01:24:24.000 You're doomed.

01:24:25.000 Like I don't want to live through that.

01:24:26.000 You can practice on Sundays.

01:24:28.000 There's no Chick-fil-A on Sunday.

01:24:29.000 And like, if there's a zombie apocalypse, like, why would you want to be alive for that?

01:24:33.000 That sounds awful.

01:24:35.000 Like, you see your boy and he's a zombie now.

01:24:37.000 Like, he can't even hang out.

01:24:38.000 Is he even really still your boy, though?

01:24:40.000 Well, if you put him in a cage, you can still hang out, like, play board games through the cage until they find the cure.

01:24:46.000 Well, you're the golden apple in Minecraft. 1.00

01:24:49.000 Jay Dirtbiker says, just here to say, we'll put a boot in your ass. 1.00

01:24:52.000 It's the American way. 1.00

01:24:53.000 US, U.S., U.S. rest in peace.

01:24:57.000 That's why.

01:24:57.000 It's because Toby Keith is gone.

01:24:59.000 If he was still around to drop a new banger for this, support for the ward go to 99. 0.95

01:25:03.000 You need a soundtrack if you're going to go to war, right?

01:25:05.000 Yeah, you need something good.

01:25:06.000 Like, this is what I love is like when libtards, every time we play Fortunate Sun for like the Venezuela edits and they're like, um, that was actually a wholesome Changa's anti-war song. 1.00

01:25:14.000 And I'm like, sit down.

01:25:16.000 It's the cool, we're dropping bombs.

01:25:18.000 It's the cool helicopter song now.

01:25:19.000 We're retconning.

01:25:20.000 There's nothing you can do about it. 1.00

01:25:21.000 You're gay. 1.00

01:25:22.000 We're cool. 0.96

01:25:23.000 It's ours now.

01:25:24.000 So take, take your, take your tail back to Reddit, and we'll, and we'll handle the edits.

01:25:29.000 We'll handle the soundtracks.

01:25:30.000 Thank, thank you.

01:25:31.000 It's like, it's like having genius.

01:25:32.000 You know, genius is like, oh, this is what the lyrics actually mean.

01:25:35.000 I don't care.

01:25:36.000 It's the cool helicopter song now.

01:25:37.000 And the Macarena song is the Fighter Jet song.

01:25:40.000 The Macarena song.

01:25:41.000 I'm so tired.

01:25:42.000 I'm so tired of the Reddit Waffen trying to tell us what we can and cannot put in our edits.

01:25:48.000 I'll put whatever I want in there.

01:25:50.000 You know?

01:25:50.000 I'll put a Chappelle Roan song in it.

01:25:52.000 I don't even care anymore.

01:25:53.000 She looks like a foot. 1.00

01:25:55.000 How do you pronounce her name?

01:25:56.000 Chappelle Roan.

01:25:57.000 Oh, Chapel Roan.

01:25:58.000 Chappelle Rhone.

01:25:59.000 Was that her real name, though? 0.71

01:26:00.000 She had, like, a nipple dress on at the... 1.00

01:26:03.000 That's glass houses.

01:26:03.000 Am I thinking of the right?

01:26:05.000 Is that a different woman? 1.00

01:26:06.000 Oh, it is, but we probably shouldn't be throwing around.

01:26:10.000 Oh, we'll save that for the after show.

01:26:11.000 Mallow, baby, has some thoughts.

01:26:13.000 I don't care what happens. 0.99

01:26:14.000 I'm just tired of being lied to and propaganda pushed on my people by Zionist warm-wongering psychopaths. 0.99

01:26:21.000 Like to throw that Zionist in there. 1.00

01:26:22.000 Do you guys think that this is actually like we'll wrap this part up?

01:26:25.000 Do you guys really think that this is all for Israel?

01:26:27.000 Do you think it's about Zionists, people that are looking to establish greater Israel for the Jews?

01:26:34.000 I think two things can be true: what Huckabee said is crazy, but I don't think that reflects like Trump's philosophy.

01:26:40.000 I think Michael Tracy actually hit the nail on the head.

01:26:43.000 Is he saying like, was his like Venezuela, now he's threatening Cuba, Greenland?

01:26:49.000 Like he's all around the world.

01:26:50.000 He has a lot of irons in the fire.

01:26:52.000 And then, okay, one is for Israel. 0.67

01:26:54.000 What about the other ones?

01:26:55.000 Like, is Israel controlling every single, like, it's clearly not controlling our foreign policy.

01:26:59.000 But the other thing could be true, which is there are people within the Trump administration.

01:27:04.000 I think there are people within the Trump administration that do feel that way.

01:27:08.000 And also, the number one beneficiary of this war is obviously Israel. 0.70

01:27:12.000 So this is why I said earlier, and this is what Cernovich is saying: is like, look, let's just, you guys go to bat for our issue.

01:27:17.000 If we're going to go to bat for the pro-Israel issue, then you go to bat for our issues. 0.69

01:27:21.000 You go to bat for the SAVE Act, et cetera, et cetera.

01:27:24.000 I think that's a good exchange.

01:27:25.000 I think there's a deal to be made here.

01:27:27.000 I think agency exists for people who aren't Jewish as well.

01:27:31.000 And most of the wars that the United States has fought, obviously, haven't been for Israel.

01:27:36.000 But there's a certain subsect of people who are Israel obsessed and that believe that whenever something happens on this earth, it's because of the Jews or the Zionists in one way or another.

01:27:45.000 So I just want to tell everybody out there, you have agency in this world.

01:27:48.000 You have the power to change things in your world and in your life.

01:27:52.000 Jews do not control you and do not control the outcome of what you achieve in your life.

01:27:56.000 Isn't that a beautiful thing, though?

01:27:58.000 You have the opportunity and agency to do whatever you want in this life.

01:28:01.000 Goyam are people too.

01:28:03.000 People with agency.

01:28:04.000 Yeah.

01:28:05.000 You were also made in God's image.

01:28:06.000 Well, because it's like this whole idea that if it weren't for like Israel and Trump's ear, that Trump would be like okay with Iran having nuclear weapons, that doesn't make any sense.

01:28:15.000 Like, there's clearly some overlapping interests.

01:28:19.000 I think even the most ardent anti-Israel people could admit that there are some overlapping interests with the US and Israel when it comes to Iran.

01:28:27.000 The reason why I want people to understand this too, as far as the left goes, the reason why so many people on the left hate Israel is only because Israel is right-wing and white-coated. 0.58

01:28:37.000 Because when people on the far left think of Israel, they think of white people. 0.89

01:28:41.000 That is why they hate Israel. 0.93

01:28:42.000 Because they think of Israel as a so-called settler colonialist society.

01:28:46.000 We are here in America too.

01:28:46.000 But guess what?

01:28:48.000 We are proudly a settler colonialist society.

01:28:50.000 And that's part of what makes us a great country.

01:28:52.000 So they're using the same blueprint and framework that they use on Israel that they will eventually use on the United States. 0.89

01:28:58.000 So when you hear this shit on the left about Israel, just think about all these themes and trends are the same thing that they will say about the United States in the future. 0.98

01:29:05.000 They hate Israel because they believe they are white people in the Middle East. 0.99

01:29:09.000 That's what it comes down to. 0.52

01:29:10.000 I agree.

01:29:11.000 It's not in the future.

01:29:12.000 There is that now.

01:29:13.000 There is a right-wing criticism to be made of Israel, and it has not been made in the Zeitgeist, the right-wing zeitgeist in a long time.

01:29:19.000 They just adopted left-wing talking points. 0.68

01:29:22.000 It's like Tucker Carlson did this where he was, he was like, you know, I have more in common with my Pakistani cab driver.

01:29:29.000 He was like in London.

01:29:29.000 He's like, I have more in common with my Pakistani cab driver than I do from a liberal living next door.

01:29:34.000 I'm like, what are you talking?

01:29:36.000 Like, what? 0.99

01:29:36.000 That is just third world, anti-white slop. 0.99

01:29:38.000 And I'm so tired of seeing like people who, again, have like an axe ground of Israel, which is totally like, fair, you're fully within your right. 1.00

01:29:45.000 I have a lot of problems with Israel. 0.99

01:29:47.000 But when you start allying with the third world, with Muslims, they're not going to go to bat when it comes to like mass migration. 0.82

01:29:53.000 No, they are the mass migration.

01:29:54.000 They are the mass migration.

01:29:56.000 Bro, you are the replacement.

01:29:57.000 You see all these people like, oh, bro, you are the great replacement.

01:30:01.000 And then, in addition to that, every pro-Palestine rally, there's like Antifa there, and there's like LGBT people there because, like, to your point, they just see Israel as like a white colonial country. 0.52

01:30:11.000 What do you think we are?

01:30:12.000 We're a white colonial country.

01:30:14.000 What do you think Australia is?

01:30:15.000 What do you think Canada is?

01:30:16.000 Like, they view Israel the same way.

01:30:18.000 Again, these like third-worldists, whatever, they view Israel the same way.

01:30:21.000 So it's like, don't adopt their talking points.

01:30:23.000 Use authentically right-wing criticisms if you are going to critique a relationship with Israel.

01:30:28.000 And there are criticisms to make.

01:30:29.000 Sure.

01:30:30.000 I never see them being made.

01:30:31.000 No, not at all.

01:30:31.000 But the left think that they will use Islam as a way to take down the West.

01:30:39.000 But really, what will happen is Islam will use the left as a way to take down the West. 1.00

01:30:43.000 That's what happened in Iran.

01:30:44.000 It's literally the name of the no, there was a left-wing group that was like at the spearhead of the revolution.

01:30:53.000 I can't believe it was blanked out in their name.

01:30:55.000 And then as soon as the Heinzel got into power, he purged all of them. 0.99

01:30:59.000 Yeah, well, I mean, that's why the phrase useful idiot exists. 0.99

01:31:02.000 Like those people are just, they're useful until they're not useful. 0.99

01:31:08.000 And whether it be the communists, the actual tankies, or you're talking about the Islamists, once those people are no longer useful, they liquidate them. 0.56

01:31:17.000 And that's historically, that's what happened.

01:31:19.000 That happened in China.

01:31:20.000 That happened in Iran.

01:31:21.000 That happened in Russia.

01:31:22.000 This is just the way that it goes, the way that the revolution always happens.

01:31:28.000 You have a broad section of society that thinks, oh, we're going to go ahead and complain about the existing structure, and then we'll take it down, and then we're going to have our utopia.

01:31:39.000 But what happens is the strongman that is actually running the show, once they are in power, they liquidate the useful enemies because they don't need revolutionaries because of the revolution.

01:31:49.000 They're the first to go.

01:31:50.000 They're absolutely the first to go.

01:31:52.000 Like I said, it happened in China.

01:31:54.000 It happened in Russia.

01:31:55.000 It happened in Iran.

01:31:56.000 This is the way that it happened.

01:31:58.000 I'm pretty sure it happened in Cuba.

01:31:59.000 This is the way that it always pans out because when you empower the people that are looking to have the revolution, when you empower, you look for a leader, that person wants to stay in power.

01:32:13.000 It was the MEK. 0.70

01:32:14.000 So the MEK spearheaded the Iranian revolution.

01:32:18.000 Guess where their headquarters are now?

01:32:20.000 Where?

01:32:20.000 Albania.

01:32:21.000 So obviously it didn't go very well for them. 1.00

01:32:23.000 As soon as they're useful, these useful idiots, as soon as they were done, the Islamists were just like, okay, thank you. 1.00

01:32:28.000 Get out of here now. 1.00

01:32:29.000 Just to put a cap on this point, the people in the United States and around the world who are the most anti-Israel people are Muslim extremists, and Islam is incompatible with our Western values. 0.99

01:32:41.000 I think that's just something to consider. 0.58

01:32:43.000 Once they finish dealing with the Jews as the way they see fit, they will not be satisfied at stopping there. 1.00

01:32:48.000 First the Saturday people, then the Sunday people.

01:32:50.000 Their values are incompatible with our country.

01:32:53.000 And I think that's really what we should understand from a lot of their political ideology being so antagonistic towards.

01:32:59.000 If you're America First, you should be only siding with like European Christian people because those are like guaranteed allies. 1.00

01:33:05.000 And everything else is like a little bit of a risk.

01:33:07.000 It's a little bit odd how much America First aligns with like these anti-Western countries like China and Russia and Muslims. 0.97

01:33:15.000 Yeah.

01:33:15.000 A little bit strange.

01:33:16.000 Muslims.

01:33:17.000 Constant proposals to like non-European, non-Christian groups.

01:33:20.000 And I'm like, what's going on?

01:33:24.000 Clint Torres, Clintorres says, he's got two super chats.

01:33:27.000 He says, howdy people, just wanted to give a shout out to my son who is following in a long family tradition of soldiers, Marines, airmen, and sailors by honorably and bravely serving in our U.S. Navy.

01:33:37.000 He had to go radio silent on his ship Saturday morning.

01:33:40.000 So please keep my boy and everyone else's boys and girls who are bravely putting themselves in harm's way for their country in your prayers.

01:33:46.000 There you go.

01:33:46.000 There's a patriot.

01:33:47.000 Amen.

01:33:48.000 Absolutely.

01:33:49.000 Shout out to all of our service members, domestic and abroad, protecting the freedoms that we often take for granted.

01:33:56.000 But it's people like your son that really allow America to be what it is today.

01:34:01.000 And without people like him, we wouldn't exist.

01:34:03.000 So we really give our deepest thankful gratitudes and thanks to the people who are really willing to sacrifice as opposed to us just being loudmouths behind the mic.

01:34:12.000 You know, they're real people willing to lay it all down on the line for the things they believe in.

01:34:17.000 And I truly commend them for it.

01:34:18.000 They're the modern day heroes and warriors of our time.

01:34:21.000 And like, whatever your take is, even if you're the most anti-Iran, you know, intervention guy on planet Earth, you have to take a step back and at least like sit in awe about our military.

01:34:30.000 Like our military is unbelievable.

01:34:31.000 We're the most lethal force in human history.

01:34:33.000 And it's because of like boys like that, like their son.

01:34:36.000 Like we have on, we honestly, we have a secret sauce, which is Americans.

01:34:40.000 Like we have the most unbelievable people.

01:34:41.000 We have the blood of the greatest men in history like gushing through our veins.

01:34:44.000 So whatever the military wants to do, they're going to get it done.

01:34:47.000 So it's like, again, whatever your take is, the military is so sick.

01:34:50.000 Like our military is like, you can have all your anti-war tastes.

01:34:53.000 That's a great one.

01:34:53.000 Thank you so much, man.

01:34:54.000 And yeah, I appreciate it.

01:34:56.000 I'm Not Your Buddy guy says, unfortunate reality of Iran is they kept kicking the can down the road, not realizing we had to face this threat one day. 0.99

01:35:04.000 It's better they had no nukes.

01:35:06.000 I mean, that's there.

01:35:07.000 The argument for that is, I mean, it's a real argument that like, look, eventually Iran was going to have to be dealt with.

01:35:15.000 Like the idea that Iran was going to be left to their own devices and continue to sponsor terror all over the place, continue to try to develop weapons, continue to, you know, support the Houthis, continue to, you know, keep the straight of Hormuz in a, you know, a stranglehold on it.

01:35:34.000 Like that was not going to be something that could stand forever.

01:35:37.000 Iran had to be dealt with. 1.00

01:35:39.000 And whether you like it or not, even if you don't think that the U.S. should be doing the dealing with them, that is, it is realistic to say, look, it's gone on too long.

01:35:49.000 So I agreed with a lot of your sentiment earlier, but I feel like it kind of avoided the real question, the real crux of the issue here.

01:35:57.000 And that's Iran's nuclear ambitions.

01:35:59.000 So should the United States have done anything to try to curb those ambitions?

01:36:03.000 What should the United States have done to, and how should we have reacted to Iran pursuing nuclear weapons? 0.92

01:36:08.000 Because I'm sure, you know, there's a ton of shit going wrong here, and there's an endless list of things that we could try to deal with. 0.78

01:36:14.000 But, you know, just ignoring the problem of Iran trying to acquire nuclear weapons won't change anything. 0.97

01:36:19.000 It'll only make it worse for us down the line.

01:36:22.000 Yeah, I mean, it's, it's such a tricky situation, right?

01:36:25.000 Because that was, again, that was the same reason for going into other areas of the Middle East, right?

01:36:29.000 Weapons of mass destruction.

01:36:31.000 There's always things.

01:36:32.000 So are they actually?

01:36:33.000 I guess they have nuclear facilities.

01:36:35.000 Do you not believe that Iran truly had nuclear ambitions?

01:36:39.000 I mean, I do believe so.

01:36:39.000 Oh, no.

01:36:40.000 Yeah.

01:36:41.000 Yeah.

01:36:41.000 I mean, this is the hard part because while it's easy to say, oh, I'm an isolationist, right?

01:36:46.000 It's like, I just want to be America.

01:36:48.000 It's like this is not the world 400 years ago where a country could just kind of stay relatively its own region, right?

01:36:56.000 So there's no such thing as being in isolation, right?

01:36:59.000 And so, yes, the United States, especially post-World War II, became the global police, right?

01:36:59.000 Not in today's world.

01:37:04.000 And, you know, Peter Zihan's book, The end of the world is just the beginning, like does a good job of detailing how the modern world that we see now, the shipping, everything, it's like on a razor's edge.

01:37:16.000 A lot of it has come through the naval presence and the structure that the United States has given the world.

01:37:22.000 And so, you know, while I am absolutely what you'd say in isolation, it's like, okay, no, no foreign wars, just like don't meddle in that kind of stuff.

01:37:30.000 I also understand that as a country, if we've got a country, like, you know, so say I live in my house and say my neighbor has a machine gun that he's always pointing at my kids in the backyard, like, I'm going to do something about it, right?

01:37:43.000 So I do agree that we have to do something, but it's just, it's, it's just so nuanced and there's been so much, um, there's been so much deceit from our own government.

01:37:53.000 Yeah, but I guess it begs the question: what do you think that something should be?

01:37:57.000 Like, obviously, it's, it's hard to say, you want to go in there militarily, or if you just don't have an answer, that's fine too.

01:38:02.000 But I don't think that's satisfying to a lot of people who want to, you know, see how the world will be and how this will affect geopolitics down the line.

01:38:09.000 Yeah, I mean, it's like, okay, if you had to do something, I would do what Trump is currently doing, right?

01:38:15.000 If you can be surgical and you can eliminate that threat, eliminate the potential threat in the future in a way that you're minimal loss of life, not just for us, but also for them.

01:38:26.000 You know, we're not firebombing cities over there with the intent of just wiping out the Iranian population, right? 1.00

01:38:32.000 So it's like, yeah, if you had to, like, if they had the intelligence that they had these active programs and that they were actively developing nuclear weapons and their intelligence was saying that, yes, they're going to use these nuclear weapons on American people.

01:38:46.000 It's like, you know, they had an agreement they were negotiating with the Islamic regime and they said they were going to continue pursuing, they didn't want to sign any agreement about any limits to it.

01:38:55.000 We offered them nuclear material to have their nuclear facilities that they wanted to base energy or some sort of research based off of.

01:39:02.000 They completely denied that.

01:39:03.000 They said there's no conversation to be had about their ballistic missile testing.

01:39:07.000 Is that to say the president has your endorsement for his attacks on Iran?

01:39:16.000 If that was the exact scenario and I believed it, I'd say yes.

01:39:19.000 But the problem is, is just that these things are just, they're so complex, right?

01:39:25.000 And I've spent a lot of my time studying the inside of the military industrial complex.

01:39:31.000 Like you get into some of this, you know, the CIA type stuff.

01:39:34.000 You get an MKUltra.

01:39:35.000 You get into like some really absolutely diabolical and evil things that have happened at the hands of our own military industrial complex.

01:39:44.000 It's, you have to look at these things through a lens of like being really scrutinizing.

01:39:48.000 Now, I'm also, I'm not someone that is coming out and saying America is the evil empire, right?

01:39:52.000 Like America, I believe, is the greatest country on earth.

01:39:54.000 Like the life that I have here, I have like when I see the flag flying or I hear the national anthem, like I'm, I'm so patriotic to that.

01:40:02.000 But I also recognize that it's just the state of our world, right?

01:40:07.000 It's like where we're at in human history is, and actually, I have a book I'll bring out real quick about this.

01:40:13.000 Actually, let me pull this out real quick.

01:40:16.000 But it's like, if you want to understand why the whole world has gone to hell in a handbasket, there's this book called You Have a Few.

01:40:24.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:40:25.000 Bernay's Propaganda, Silent Weapons for Quiet Wars.

01:40:28.000 That's a good one, right?

01:40:31.000 But this book called Political Ponerology.

01:40:33.000 Oh, dude, I've read that book.

01:40:35.000 This is a heavy book.

01:40:36.000 If you want to understand what's happening in the world right now, you want to look at the Epstein stuff through this lens. 0.91

01:40:40.000 It's basically the idea that over time, evil accumulates in positions of power.

01:40:44.000 And so I think that even before Christ, we had consolidation of powerful evil that, and it's maintained a lot of that control.

01:40:54.000 And so, like, the world where you see it today, it's like almost every government has massive amounts of evil in it, right?

01:41:01.000 And it's just, it's, it's the hard thing.

01:41:02.000 It's like, is Israel their government evil?

01:41:05.000 Yeah, they're doing some evil stuff there, right?

01:41:08.000 Is our government absolutely?

01:41:10.000 Is the CCP, which is still running the world's largest state-run organ harvesting operation of underground Christians, Falun Gong, et cetera, absolutely evil.

01:41:19.000 So it just, it's, it's like we're kind of put into a situation now where it's so difficult to like you can't look at anything in a binary way of just black or white.

01:41:30.000 Like it's, it's so complex.

01:41:32.000 And so that's why it's hard for me to give this answer of just like, I absolutely support Donald Trump and these actions because I'm also trying to look at that.

01:41:40.000 I'm analyzing, okay, how does this tie in to the Epstein files?

01:41:43.000 How does it tie into this?

01:41:44.000 How does it tie into all these other things?

01:41:46.000 And so it's hard for me just to give a binary answer of like, yes, I support it or yes, I'm against it.

01:41:54.000 All right.

01:41:55.000 De Remmel says this is not a new war.

01:41:57.000 We have been fighting this war in one form or another for almost 50 years.

01:42:00.000 Also, the targets of late have strong connections to China and Russia.

01:42:04.000 I think that that's something that we've covered at length today.

01:42:08.000 This is not a situation where it's just one dimension, right?

01:42:12.000 And not that I'm a 5D chess guy, but it is worth saying, look, don't look at this as just an isolated incident.

01:42:19.000 This is something that actually, if you read the national security strategy, this is something that plays right into what the Trump administration has been talking about doing.

01:42:29.000 Excuse me.

01:42:31.000 Go ahead.

01:42:32.000 Oh, no, I think that also really gets into the question that you had asked me: is that it's like, okay, I don't think it's just the issue of just this isolated country that has these ill intentions towards the United States, right?

01:42:45.000 Like, we also know that a lot of the terrorist activity across the Middle East was actually the KGB was heavily involved in setting all that stuff up.

01:42:52.000 Like, why is it that the main weapon they use is a Russian weapon, right?

01:42:55.000 The AK-47, right?

01:42:58.000 The Middle East for a long time has just been a proxy for this kind of these larger nation states using this to foment hatred for America. 0.51

01:43:08.000 There's been so much going on over there, but I think that it's like I'm looking at not as much as looking at it from the lens of just this isolated country, but it's like if I look at Trump and I think, okay, he's doing this as a part of a bigger war.

01:43:20.000 It's like when Venezuela happened, you had a lot of people that were like, this is so wrong.

01:43:24.000 Like, okay, Trump's now doing regime changes.

01:43:26.000 And I'm looking at it and saying, well, yeah, but he may have just took a really key resource away from the CCP who wants us dead.

01:43:33.000 So it's the same way I'm looking at with Iran. 0.57

01:43:36.000 It's like, okay, if this is something that's going to actually really help the bigger picture of the war with the CCP, which we are at war with the CCP, whether we acknowledge it, they acknowledge it.

01:43:47.000 You read their doctrines, you read unrestricted warfare.

01:43:50.000 You go back to, I'm not sure if you ever come across the leaked speech of General Chi Hao Qian, right?

01:43:55.000 He was the, have you read it before?

01:43:57.000 Mind-blowing.

01:43:58.000 Maybe in the after hours we'll get to it, but it was this leaked speech in the early 2000s of one of the, he was the defense minister in China, when he literally was talking about how they needed to use biological weapons to wipe out between one and 200 million Americans so they could seize our land.

01:44:11.000 Right.

01:44:12.000 This was their minister of defense. 0.99

01:44:14.000 So that's why it's like, it's not as easy as me answering and saying, yes, they shouldn't have nukes, so we should kill their leaders, right? 0.98

01:44:23.000 Does that make sense? 0.95

01:44:25.000 Simple to me, but I understand why people could have more qualms about it.

01:44:27.000 I guess I'm upright by some isolationists just criticizing the people making decisions when they don't have to.

01:44:33.000 And again, you didn't have to make a decision and you didn't even really have to give an answer.

01:44:36.000 It's really easy to criticize.

01:44:38.000 It is.

01:44:38.000 And not have a solution.

01:44:39.000 And that's what I think we see from so many isolationist types.

01:44:42.000 And that's why I try to press you on it.

01:44:43.000 They want a nuclear weapon.

01:44:44.000 What are we going to do about it?

01:44:45.000 And it's just like, oh, well, I'm not sure.

01:44:47.000 And we may have to make a bunch of decisions.

01:44:49.000 All right.

01:44:50.000 We're going to go to the Rumble After Show right now.

01:44:52.000 So smash the like button, share the show with your friends.

01:45:07.000 So, Seth, thank you very much for joining us tonight.

01:45:11.000 Where can people find you?

01:45:12.000 So for people that are on YouTube, they can still find me.

01:45:15.000 I have a channel on YouTube to search for Man in America.

01:45:17.000 Less than half my content goes up there, though, because I get strikes because I question the medical industrial complex a little too much.

01:45:24.000 But the main place is really any place that they're watching or listening to Timcast.

01:45:29.000 Rumble's the biggest place.

01:45:30.000 That's where my largest audience is, is over on Rumble.

01:45:33.000 Just search for Man in America.

01:45:35.000 Beyond that, any of the podcast apps, search for Man in America.

01:45:39.000 And also, just a reminder of the ReadyScore.com is another place that they can not find my information, but something else they can do that will help them.

01:45:48.000 A lot.

01:45:49.000 Thanks for tuning in, everybody.

01:45:50.000 My name is Alad Eliyahu.

01:45:51.000 I'm the White House correspondent, I guess, and Pentagon reporter here at Timcast.

01:45:55.000 I wanted to give a special shout out to all of our service members and their families in this very difficult time.

01:46:01.000 They're doing their patriotic duties, and they're extremely heroic in doing so.

01:46:05.000 And we are keeping them in our minds.

01:46:06.000 And the president is going to try to keep them safe to the best of his ability.

01:46:09.000 And we're extremely proud of what they are doing out there, and we're praying for their safety.

01:46:15.000 Yeah.

01:46:15.000 Absolutely.

01:46:16.000 I mean, look, I think I disseminated a lot of concerns regarding the war, but I do have to say, I still have full faith in President Trump.

01:46:21.000 I do think despite the walls closing in on the president, right?

01:46:25.000 Like, it seems like this is the end of MAG.

01:46:27.000 I think he's going to be vindicated in the end.

01:46:28.000 I think we'll make it out.

01:46:29.000 Old Donnie will wriggle out of this jam.

01:46:31.000 You can follow me on X and Instagram at RealTate Brown.

01:46:34.000 I will see you guys over there.

01:47:19.000 All right.

01:51:48.000 You mean Pakistani?

01:51:49.000 Yo, guys, we are starting right now.

01:51:53.000 Well, Ellen's going through some gory videos, but yo, we uh are starting right now.

01:52:02.000 Going, we're going, we're going.

01:52:04.000 We start up, and I'm sitting there.

01:52:06.000 No, man, I should have had it on myself there.

01:52:09.000 Let me pull up the Discord.

01:52:12.000 Oh, we don't have to do that just yet, but all right, all right.

01:52:18.000 You in?

01:52:19.000 Because I'm gonna grab this thing up.

01:52:20.000 Oh, yeah, do your thing, man.

01:52:21.000 What are we talking about here?

01:52:22.000 What do we got?

01:52:23.000 We can talk about Gen Z being miserable, or we can talk about SCOTUS ruling California schools can't keep students' gender transitions secret. 0.98

01:52:34.000 We don't really have anything fun to talk about.

01:52:36.000 Should have saved the goybean. 1.00

01:52:39.000 Goy, goi, goin, juju, ju, goi, Ju.

01:52:45.000 Jujubees. 0.99

01:52:49.000 There's two wolves inside of me.

01:52:51.000 And they're both Alex.

01:52:52.000 They're both warring.

01:52:54.000 And they're both on either side of the Israel-Palestine conflict.

01:52:59.000 So let's talk about SCOTUS.

01:53:01.000 SCODUS rules: California schools can't keep students' gender transition secret from parents.

01:53:05.000 So because it's the after show, we can say they can't hide the trans. 0.97

01:53:09.000 I said Troon on the YouTube stream.

01:53:12.000 Did you?

01:53:13.000 I'm pretty sure I did.

01:53:13.000 I didn't hear that.

01:53:14.000 I said trune, or I said trune out or something.

01:53:17.000 Yeah.

01:53:17.000 But I hear people say it all the time, so we're probably fine.

01:53:19.000 It's my favorite derogatory term for trans people. 1.00

01:53:25.000 I like it.

01:53:26.000 And if Taylor Lorenz is whatever is listening, I apologize.

01:53:31.000 I'm not trying to offend you.

01:53:32.000 But he doesn't take offense.

01:53:33.000 She doesn't take offense.

01:53:34.000 The Supreme Court on Monday blocked California's policies in schools that allow teachers to keep students' gender transition secret from their parents.

01:53:41.000 The justices sided with parents who brought the case forward six to three.

01:53:46.000 Can we guess who the three are?

01:53:51.000 Sodomior.

01:53:54.000 Jackson.

01:53:55.000 Who do you think the third one was? 0.98

01:53:57.000 The freaking PMS big three. 0.95

01:54:00.000 Who's the third one? 0.98

01:54:02.000 Kagan.

01:54:03.000 That's right.

01:54:04.000 They later wrote, the intrusion on parents' free exercise right here, unconsented facilitation of a child's gender transition is greater than the introduction of LGBTQ storybooks we considered sufficient to trigger strict scrutiny in Mahmoud.

01:54:21.000 The state argued that the policies advanced a compelling interest in student safety and privacy, but those policies cut to the primary protectors of children's best interest, their parents, the court stated.

01:54:32.000 The court also said that the same is true for the subclass of parents who object to those policies on due process grounds.

01:54:38.000 Under long-established precedent, parents, not the state, have primary authority with respect to the upbringing and education of their children.

01:54:45.000 They wrote that the precedent set by prior class protections, the right not to be shut out of participation in decisions regarding their children's mental health.

01:54:53.000 Gender dysphoria is a condition that has an important bearing on a child's mental health.

01:54:58.000 But when a child exhibits symptoms of gender dysphoria at school, California's policies conceal that information from parents and facilitate a degree of gender transitioning during school hours.

01:55:07.000 These policies likely violate parents' right to direct the upbringing and education of their children.

01:55:12.000 I think that that's probably one of the most obvious decisions that the Supreme Court has come to in a while.

01:55:20.000 And I don't think it's not a surprise to me that there were three justices that said that the parents don't have the right to raise their children, that the state has the actual authority.

01:55:32.000 And we talked about who we think they are.

01:55:35.000 But I can't imagine what the dissent was.

01:55:39.000 And that's something that I'm actually interested.

01:55:42.000 I would love to read the dissent and who actually, you know, who wrote the dissent and what they had to say.

01:55:50.000 How do you justify hiding that kind of thing from a parent?

01:55:55.000 I think the 100 years from now, people will look back at this era in history, hopefully, right?

01:56:00.000 And they'll say, how on earth did these Supreme Court justices write this dissent saying we think it's okay for the schools to hide this stuff from the parents.

01:56:14.000 It just, it's, it's so insane.

01:56:18.000 You know, we're always, we're always kind of in the current reality that we're living, right?

01:56:21.000 See, it's hard to look at objectively.

01:56:22.000 Like you can look back at the 50s and say, oh, that was weird.

01:56:25.000 But I feel like there's so many things our society has changed so much and we've lost sight of it.

01:56:29.000 Compared to this, there is not anything I can think about in schools in the 50s that was weird.

01:56:36.000 No.

01:56:37.000 There was nothing at all.

01:56:39.000 It was exactly normal.

01:56:41.000 How do you, Tate, how do you justify truning a kid?

01:56:46.000 It's a very good question.

01:56:48.000 I haven't ponsificated what the justification could be.

01:56:51.000 Just typically think about punishments for these people.

01:56:54.000 Millstones around necks.

01:56:56.000 Millstones, boy beams, discombobulators, slingshots in this space.

01:57:01.000 Trebuchets. 1.00

01:57:02.000 We had a caller with lots of good ideas last week for this.

01:57:02.000 Trebuchets.

01:57:05.000 We had what?

01:57:06.000 We had a caller with a lot of good ideas.

01:57:08.000 Oh, yeah, we did.

01:57:09.000 Lots of toothpicks.

01:57:10.000 I've been sort of percolate.

01:57:12.000 That's been percolating my head recently.

01:57:14.000 I want to hear his take on this.

01:57:14.000 There's a lot.

01:57:16.000 He's out there just screwing around. 0.98

01:57:18.000 Goofing off, gaffing. 0.99

01:57:20.000 Gaffing.

01:57:21.000 A lot.

01:57:24.000 Are you doing a lot?

01:57:26.000 He's not coming back.

01:57:27.000 See, it worked. 0.76

01:57:28.000 Oh, a lot.

01:57:29.000 Where have you been?

01:57:30.000 A lot. 0.88

01:57:31.000 How would you torture a trans person? 0.99

01:57:33.000 I think that's what's going on. 0.99

01:57:34.000 No, not a trans person. 0.94

01:57:37.000 What would you, so we're talking about. 0.98

01:57:38.000 They'll ask me specifically how a lot, how will you torture trans person? 0.88

01:57:42.000 SCODA's rules, California schools can't keep students gender, transition, secret from parents.

01:57:47.000 How do you justify keeping that kind of information secret from parents?

01:57:54.000 Speak into the mic, please.

01:57:55.000 From a left word perspective.

01:57:57.000 A lot.

01:57:58.000 Speak into the mic.

01:57:59.000 Are you out of breath?

01:58:01.000 I was running back up when I heard.

01:58:02.000 There you go.

01:58:03.000 That war got you fired up. 0.81

01:58:04.000 I was screwed in a bit.

01:58:05.000 That war got me fired up.

01:58:08.000 The Rubio comment, the Pete Heckseth comment.

01:58:11.000 You could justify it from a left word perspective by saying that's who they truly are.

01:58:15.000 And if the parents won't accept that and help foster their true identity, then they're leading them to a life of pain, depression, and maybe even suicide.

01:58:22.000 They might even kill themselves if you don't confirm their, what is it, identity, their gender identity.

01:58:28.000 That's the left word justification of keeping it a secret from your parents.

01:58:32.000 That's pretty good.

01:58:33.000 Is that realistic, though?

01:58:34.000 It's emotional blackmail.

01:58:36.000 It's, it's, it's.

01:58:37.000 Who wants to deal with these trunes? 1.00

01:58:40.000 It's like one day you're a man, and now you're a woman, but an ugly one. 1.00

01:58:45.000 Look, you guys want real justification for war in Iran? 0.99

01:58:48.000 They make the gay people into trans people, so they have a trans industrial complex going on over there. 0.96

01:58:54.000 They do.

01:58:55.000 So, if you really want to fight back against trans ideology, you should support regional people.

01:58:59.000 Do they just make them dress like trans people or do they have to go through operations?

01:59:02.000 I think they do operations.

01:59:03.000 Yeah, I'm pretty sure they do make them go.

01:59:06.000 Are they state-funded?

01:59:07.000 They make funded.

01:59:08.000 Islamic state-funded.

01:59:08.000 Wow.

01:59:10.000 This is crazy.

01:59:11.000 What halal?

01:59:13.000 Is that their kosher?

01:59:14.000 Yeah, it's the Muslim version. 1.00

01:59:16.000 The Muslim version. 0.99

01:59:17.000 Yeah.

01:59:18.000 Stuck for Allah, right? 1.00

01:59:19.000 Sex changes, gay. 1.00

01:59:20.000 I mean, no, that's actually Iran. 0.99

01:59:24.000 They might be onto something.

01:59:25.000 I thought you were going to say Iran Nick Lee.

01:59:27.000 Iran, they might be on to something. 0.99

01:59:30.000 No, just be gay. 1.00

01:59:31.000 If you're gay, just light in the loafers, maybe just commit to the bit and you turn out. 1.00

01:59:35.000 I don't know. 1.00

01:59:37.000 Just commit to being gay. 1.00

01:59:38.000 There's an argument from the LGBT community, LGBT LGB community that says that it's actually destroying the gay population. 0.97

01:59:47.000 I think I've heard enough. 0.91

01:59:49.000 They're breaking the minds of young gay people and saying, oh, you're actually trans and you're destroying the gay culture. 0.98

01:59:57.000 No, I've heard enough from all those letters. 0.96

01:59:59.000 I think me and Mike Pence are going to put together a strategy going forward to answer that. 1.00

02:00:05.000 You're a gay twink, not a woman. 1.00

02:00:06.000 That's what I feel like. 1.00

02:00:08.000 Yeah, I think Mike Pence comes out like Emperor Palpatine.

02:00:11.000 Just ray down everybody, right?

02:00:14.000 Oh, he gets a goy beam, dude.

02:00:14.000 Yeah.

02:00:16.000 LGBT rates drop to zero.

02:00:17.000 Kind of miss Mike Pence, don't you?

02:00:19.000 Um, no, but I do miss the elect, like the electric.

02:00:24.000 He was like a real superhero.

02:00:26.000 He was like a super Christian.

02:00:27.000 He was like, he was literally like.

02:00:28.000 He wouldn't go out to dinner without his wife if any other woman was there. 1.00

02:00:32.000 That's smart.

02:00:33.000 That's just ball knowledge.

02:00:35.000 I think he was like against, he was for conversion therapy, gay conversion therapy.

02:00:40.000 He wasn't actually for gay.

02:00:41.000 He went shocking all with it, though.

02:00:43.000 Shocking.

02:00:44.000 All right, we're going to go to your calls.

02:00:45.000 So let's see.

02:00:47.000 We're going to bring in who is this?

02:00:50.000 Alternative pants.

02:00:52.000 Alternative pants.

02:00:53.000 Can you hear us?

02:00:55.000 Alt pants.

02:00:56.000 What's again, panel?

02:00:58.000 It is your favorite president.

02:01:01.000 Oh, once again, thank you for taking my call.

02:01:05.000 As you can imagine, it's been a busy weekend.

02:01:09.000 They tried to touch our boots, and I've got lots to do, and it's got me sweating like the next diatola.

02:01:14.000 Wow.

02:01:15.000 Thank you for calling in, Mr. President.

02:01:17.000 Do you have a question or comment?

02:01:20.000 Talk to other president.

02:01:22.000 Sir?

02:01:23.000 Yes.

02:01:23.000 I got to do my normal voice.

02:01:25.000 What the fuck is this? 1.00

02:01:25.000 Who are you? 1.00

02:01:26.000 Who are you?

02:01:27.000 What'd you do with the president?

02:01:29.000 We talked about Marco Rubio.

02:01:33.000 We talked about Marco Rubio's comment, and I just want to ask: is this another instance of Israel not being our best ally?

02:01:41.000 I mean, this is after years of espionage and theft and more than a few false flags aimed at gaining U.S. support.

02:01:47.000 Can we finally admit that Israel does not act like an ally of the U.S. and that we are effectively having to pick up the tab for them in the region? 0.53

02:01:54.000 Israel's greatest.

02:01:55.000 Wait, it was years of intellectual, what'd you say, theft of what?

02:01:59.000 What are they stealing? 0.98

02:02:00.000 The Jews espionage and theft. 0.97

02:02:04.000 What espionage and theft has Israel been committing? 0.97

02:02:07.000 I asked this in earnest.

02:02:09.000 I just haven't heard this.

02:02:12.000 Okay, so there was the incident in the New Mech affair, also known as the Apollo affair, where over 200 pounds of weapons-grade uranium disappeared from a U.S. facility in Pennsylvania.

02:02:21.000 When was that?

02:02:21.000 And the CIA presented evidence that it may have ended up.

02:02:24.000 It was in the 80s, I believe.

02:02:26.000 But the Israeli family, he was later connected.

02:02:31.000 I said years of, Elod.

02:02:33.000 I said years of.

02:02:35.000 Then there was the theft of nuclear triggers that were then illegally exported to Israel.

02:02:41.000 Bibianetan Yahoo was directly involved in facilitating this.

02:02:45.000 There was Jonathan Pollard, who was paid by Israeli intelligence to pass over thousands of classified documents and intelligence reports, specifically to Israeli operatives, later moved to Israel while on parole after his conviction.

02:02:57.000 And there was the Stingray incident in 2017 and 2018, where the Mossad was capturing cell phone calls, texts, and phone location data using devices placed near the White House and other sensitive sites in Washington, D.C.

02:03:11.000 So those are not things an ally does.

02:03:16.000 No, actually, it is.

02:03:19.000 You have no idea that our other allies spy on us all the time and we spy on all of our other allies and it's standard practice for like most intelligence agencies to do that.

02:03:26.000 You listed off a couple of things that are like maybe token events.

02:03:30.000 I get it, bro.

02:03:31.000 You just don't like Israel. 0.93

02:03:32.000 You don't have to make this whole war thing about Israel to just come out and say, you know, you don't think it's good that we support Israel.

02:03:37.000 And it's all good.

02:03:38.000 You, you know, that's really what it comes down to.

02:03:40.000 Without I'm okay with bombing Iran. 1.00

02:03:42.000 I have plenty of reasons to support bombing Iran. 1.00

02:03:44.000 I just don't think that you're going to be able to do it.

02:03:45.000 I want to know why do you support bombing Iran?

02:03:48.000 Because it disrupts oil supply to Russia and to China.

02:03:54.000 It does send an oil to Russia.

02:03:58.000 It does allow for lots.

02:04:02.000 I'm sorry, go on.

02:04:03.000 It allows oil to China just like Venezuela does.

02:04:08.000 And it does provide a potential return for the pre-revolution Iran that was actually a fairly nice place. 0.97

02:04:14.000 Okay, so very well.

02:04:15.000 I think you made the argument for me.

02:04:17.000 That's why this war wasn't for Israel and it's for the United States for the interests that you just put forth.

02:04:22.000 So, Mazeltov, we're coming full circle, and I think you did a good job of it.

02:04:25.000 Those are all valid reasons.

02:04:27.000 What?

02:04:28.000 You're breaking up.

02:04:29.000 Okay, so you're just going to ignore the fact that You're just going to ignore what Rubio said, how we were effectively strong-armed into it because Israel was going to attack regardless of the fact that the United States was the primary target for retaliation.

02:04:44.000 So I would actually take a little bit of issue with that characterization because just because Rubio mentioned the fact that Israel was going to attack and that Iran was going to attack multiple people in response, because it wouldn't have just attacked the United States or U.S. facilities.

02:05:04.000 It would have attacked its neighbors just like it did.

02:05:08.000 So it wasn't just for Israel.

02:05:10.000 Now, as for your points about the espionage and stuff, there are a few of the things that you mentioned were actually egregious, but overall, Elad's point is right.

02:05:23.000 The United States spies on all of our allies.

02:05:26.000 France is actually one of the biggest, biggest, I guess, or one of the countries that does the most espionage, that spies on the U.S. the most.

02:05:37.000 So it is fairly normal when it comes to statecraft for allies to spy on allies.

02:05:42.000 Now, again, I did acknowledge that some of the things that you're talking about with the uranium and stuff like that, there are a few egregious ones that Israel has been involved in.

02:05:51.000 But the idea that only Israel is spying on the United States or that the U.S. doesn't spy on our allies, that's just not true.

02:06:02.000 I never said that we didn't, and I never said that allies don't spy.

02:06:05.000 I just said that these are not the actions of our closest ally.

02:06:09.000 And these are not the sort of things that you would expect from a friendly nation that is trying to be the best friend of the United States.

02:06:17.000 I think that it is something you'd expect from allies, close allies.

02:06:23.000 Personally, I don't think that Israel is our greatest ally. 1.00

02:06:25.000 I know that phrase gets thrown around a lot when it comes to problems.

02:06:29.000 That's dangerously anti-Semitic, Phil.

02:06:32.000 Well, I mean, it's on Rumble, so it's okay.

02:06:35.000 You know, I do think that calling Israel our closest ally is a little bit of an exaggeration, but we do have a lot of overlapping interests with Israel.

02:06:45.000 So, you know, in the Middle East.

02:06:47.000 And I do think that they are generally an ally.

02:06:52.000 But Israel has its own interests. 0.61

02:06:54.000 You know, the United States has its own interests, and sometimes those interests don't align.

02:07:01.000 You have agency, viewer.

02:07:03.000 You have agency.

02:07:04.000 I want you to know.

02:07:05.000 Do you have anything that you want to add?

02:07:06.000 I'm very aware of that.

02:07:08.000 Good.

02:07:08.000 Do you have anything you want to add?

02:07:09.000 No, can I do a quick shout-out?

02:07:11.000 Yeah, please.

02:07:12.000 Please.

02:07:13.000 I'd like to shout out the Landlocked Surfers podcast on Spotify and on X at Landlock Surf.

02:07:20.000 And I also want to shout out Elad for getting bodied by Heg Seth in the press conference.

02:07:25.000 All right, man.

02:07:26.000 I don't understand.

02:07:27.000 This guy has it both ways.

02:07:28.000 He doesn't want to know about troops on the ground.

02:07:30.000 He says the war is justified. 0.99

02:07:31.000 Israel's dragging us into it. 0.97

02:07:33.000 I'm not sure, but okay.

02:07:34.000 I'll check out Landlocked Podcast.

02:07:36.000 All right, man.

02:07:37.000 Thanks for calling in.

02:07:37.000 Thanks, man.

02:07:38.000 All right.

02:07:39.000 And we're going to go to what is it?

02:07:42.000 Loafers?

02:07:44.000 No.

02:07:45.000 Lof.

02:07:46.000 It says Quaggy?

02:07:48.000 Quasgi?

02:07:51.000 What is the name here?

02:07:52.000 I cannot read the whole name.

02:07:53.000 It's just Loafers.

02:07:54.000 And then.

02:07:56.000 All right.

02:07:56.000 Well, all right.

02:07:57.000 We're going to just go with Loafers.

02:07:58.000 Loafers, you there?

02:08:01.000 Yeah, I'm here.

02:08:02.000 It's Loafers.

02:08:03.000 Hi.

02:08:03.000 What up, dude?

02:08:05.000 All right.

02:08:06.000 Let's discuss everyone's favorite topic: abortion, but this time with less killing.

02:08:11.000 So should doctors or should there be a law that requires doctors who perform abortions or terminate a pregnancy to try and save the life of both the mother and the child?

02:08:23.000 Keep in mind, like it's what, 20 weeks is, I think, the earliest, maybe a couple weeks sooner, earlier now for a viable child to be born.

02:08:34.000 Viable.

02:08:35.000 Yeah, viable 20 weeks.
