00:00:00.000 Here's what Ben Shapiro, and again, remember,
00:00:02.980 there are three different types of critics of Israel.
00:00:05.680 You don't want to lose level three because they're not enemies of yours.
00:00:09.300 You're right.
00:00:09.820 I don't know how to describe this.
00:00:11.580 It's like, you know, when you root for a team, you're like,
00:00:15.260 I would have never in my entire life rooted for the Knicks ever.
00:00:19.440 But my God, the way Spurs played in the playoffs, you became a Knicks fan. 0.99
00:00:24.000 What the hell are you doing playing so shitty 0.97
00:00:26.220 when you have such big leads in every one of the games? 0.99
00:00:28.680 Never in my life did I think I was going to be a Knicks fan.
00:00:31.260 But here's Ben Shapiro's response.
00:00:33.100 Go for it.
00:00:33.780 J.D. Vance appears on Megyn Kelly's podcast.
00:00:36.000 Remember, as we'll get to, Megyn Kelly is a person who has said that the Israelis manipulated the administration into war, 0.88
00:00:41.840 who has laughed along to the proposition that the Republican Party is a bunch of Israel-loving pedophiles.
00:00:47.440 This is where the vice president chose to retail the argument.
00:00:50.180 So the vice president says that actually the only reason that people would oppose the deal is because they want endless conflict.
00:00:56.540 well let's hear what he has to say i think that fundamentally if you look at what they're
00:01:06.320 proposing they're proposing an endless conflict they want this to go on until every bomb has
00:01:13.820 been dropped or until every iranian is dead that is not what the president of the united states
00:01:18.520 wants what he said is i said about this to end their nuclear program to eliminate their ability 0.75
00:01:24.540 to threaten their neighbors and project power and to fundamentally make sure that no future child
00:01:30.940 would have to deal with a terrorist regime with an atomic bomb. That's why the president set out 0.74
00:01:36.400 to do this. I just want to know what argument Ben is making here. Is this like a big argument he's
00:01:42.180 making? Let's hear what Ben has to say. Well, an entire field of straw man is now burning
00:01:47.000 because this is what we colloquially call a lie. This is a lie. An endless conflict would be say
00:01:54.500 a 47-year conflict with an intransigent, 0.89
00:01:57.660 radical Islamist enemy that wants to destroy America.
00:02:00.920 Some of us have been calling for the president
00:02:02.600 to end this war quickly, like from the beginning.
00:02:06.000 I've been saying for literally months
00:02:07.700 that instead of signing on to a useless ceasefire,
00:02:10.460 that we ought to take or bomb Harga Island,
00:02:13.340 open the straits with operations like Project Freedom
00:02:15.660 with the president, which...
00:02:16.380 Ben's reacting to J.D.
00:02:17.300 I'll just ask one question.
00:02:18.520 I know you want to move on.
00:02:19.100 Yeah, go for it. 0.58
00:02:19.500 Let's say Israel gets the call and says,
00:02:21.880 for the next 60 days?
00:02:24.260 zero response zero you got it we'll just absorb the missiles we'll lose some soldiers but we're
00:02:34.500 going to honor your deal you got it sir boom how's that going to play in israel by the way
00:02:39.460 while bb's trying to get elected disaster bb will not be re-elected if that happens but let's say he
00:02:45.700 does what are the chances you think iran is actually a good faith actor and will do what
00:02:53.360 they are going to write in these deals what are the chances less than five percent okay so this
00:02:57.360 whole deal hinges on five percent chance that iran is actually going to comply i think iran can i
00:03:03.960 just give a little brevity here you ever see that it's a weird analogy if i if i may you ever see
00:03:08.140 the episode of seinfeld when he goes to get the car and he goes yeah i have the reservation she
00:03:12.960 goes yeah we don't we didn't uh keep your reservation she goes he goes see the problem
00:03:18.280 with you is you can hold the reservation right oh you could take the reservation but you won't
00:03:24.280 hold the reservation what's my point iran will sign an agreement they're never going to honor
00:03:30.820 the agreement you just gave five percent i give it less than that that's the problem we're making
00:03:36.480 a deal with the devil and trump's trying to do this to get out of the midterms my suspicion
00:03:41.520 we're going to be bombing karg island or iran right after midterms and eliminate iran that's 0.58
00:03:47.220 my opinion but we'll see what happens but guess what you know what's the great thing about terms
00:03:51.020 and you put different points in so when you invest who is the investor here
00:03:55.960 united states who is the who's the buyer who's the seller here who's the investor who's the
00:04:01.220 receiver here iran would be receiving funds so who's the investor here the world the u.s okay
00:04:06.220 so who typically has more control the investor with the money of course who has more control
00:04:11.080 the investor or the receiver the investor the investor okay so guess what the investor gets
00:04:14.920 to do with their terms tell me whatever they want well that's what jd has been laying that's
00:04:19.780 what i'm trying to because they're not going to get any money do you think this is like yeah
00:04:23.680 here you go give now i agree so then there's a whole wing of things by the way a part of this
00:04:29.800 if you really go play the 45d bullshit that people talk about let's just say we go there
00:04:34.060 a part of this is we gave them the deal yeah hey the world of some of you guys that were 0.64
00:04:40.260 non-interventionists we gave the deal they still did this now what do you want to do exactly so
00:04:45.580 we're in charge no matter what because you're putting the money in so so the part about being
00:04:49.620 the investor is you control the terms and and i fully agree with you great analogy and what did
00:04:54.720 trump say he goes listen we want peace but if they don't want peace i'll bomb the we'll bomb 0.97
00:04:58.320 the crap out of him again and that's what's gonna happen what happens if that bombing and all that 0.98
00:05:03.100 stuff and all these people that are anti-war what if the next president comes in who's pro 0.81
00:05:07.300 Can I ask you a question?
00:05:08.400 Who wants more?
00:05:09.040 Oh, come on.
00:05:09.520 If an AOC or somebody that's not a huge fan of Israel comes in,
00:05:12.520 what happens when there's an anti-Israel president like all these leftist Democrats are comes in?
00:05:17.840 Then what?
00:05:18.700 No, like they don't like Israel. 1.00
00:05:20.200 By the way, that's a valid question. 0.99
00:05:22.360 Yeah.
00:05:22.600 And that's why what we learned the last six years specifically is the most powerful people in D.C. is the Supreme Court.
00:05:32.640 To me, the founding fathers every day get more and more credit of what these guys build.
00:05:39.200 The fact that they thought about this, and it goes back to Case for America, right, the books.
00:05:43.120 So if you haven't ordered it yet, you may want to go click on a link below and place the order.
00:05:47.020 The fact that they place that, the way they build it is the biggest insurance policy on how it's built.
00:05:53.480 To me, for as long as I'm alive, if I have to choose, honestly, if I have to choose between a,
00:05:59.260 And this is a very weird thing to say. If I have a choice between having a Republican president for 20 years straight, but liberals control Supreme Court, six to three, or having a liberal president, but Supreme Court controls six to three, I take Supreme Court.
00:06:15.260 But conservative controls with liberal, liberal. I take. Oh, for sure. And it's not even close. And it's not even close.
00:06:21.060 So to me, my insurance policy is, hey, Supreme Court, Supreme Court, Supreme Court, all this other stuff.
00:06:27.480 These founding fathers knew what they were doing.
00:06:29.080 On July 1st, we're hosting a webinar specifically for fathers.
00:06:33.040 And this is a, I would say it's all the mistakes and everything that I've seen myself, the great fathers of my life do.
