Verdict with Ted Cruz - Schumer Abandons Israel-The Crisis of Democrats Turning Hard Against Israel

00:00:00.000 This is an iHeart Podcast.

00:00:02.480 Guaranteed human.

00:00:05.120 Welcome. It is Verdict with Senator Ted Cruz.

00:00:07.780 Ben Ferguson with you.

00:00:09.380 And Senator, shocking what happened on the floor of the Senate yesterday

00:00:13.500 with Chuck Schumer basically going after Israel instead of Hamas.

00:00:19.760 Your reaction to this story.

00:00:22.080 Yesterday was truly a shocking day.

00:00:23.740 It was an historic day.

00:00:25.220 Never in our country's history has something happened

00:00:27.880 like what Chuck Schumer did yesterday.

00:00:29.800 He stood on the Senate floor and he blasted the nation of Israel.

00:00:34.120 He stood on the Senate floor and he demanded

00:00:36.320 that Israel's elected Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu step down.

00:00:41.320 Mind you, Schumer doesn't do this for enemies of America.

00:00:44.040 He doesn't do this for Russia.

00:00:45.260 He doesn't do this for Iran.

00:00:46.780 He doesn't do this for Hamas. 0.53

00:00:48.640 He reserves this hatred for the elected leader of Israel.

00:00:53.400 And sadly, Schumer is the point of the spear.

00:00:55.940 He represents also Democrats across the board

00:00:58.380 who are pivoting away from Israel.

00:01:00.560 This very same week, the Biden administration waived sanctions

00:01:04.540 to effectively give $10 billion to Iran,

00:01:08.900 to the Ayatollah who pledges death to Israel and death to America, 0.92

00:01:13.720 who is funding Hamas, who was behind the October 7th attack.

00:01:17.800 And Joe Biden is prepared to fund those zealots while Chuck Schumer has decided

00:01:23.920 that the target of his ire should be the elected leader of Israel.

00:01:27.800 It's truly stunning and it's dangerous.

00:01:30.420 It is dangerous.

00:01:31.480 And we're going to obviously have a lot of that audio from the floor of the Senate.

00:01:35.520 I also, so many verdict listeners have asked,

00:01:38.120 what can we do to help those in Israel?

00:01:40.140 I want to tell you about the International Fellowship of Christian and Jews.

00:01:43.400 And it's been five months since Hamas brutally attacked Israel,

00:01:47.320 launching that vicious war for Israel's very survival.

00:01:51.760 And as Israel fights for her existence, 0.88

00:01:53.700 so many people around the world, even in America's community,

00:02:00.180 have said, what can we do to help?

00:02:03.000 Well, there are a lot of needs right now.

00:02:06.140 The International Fellowship of Christians and Jews is on the ground in Israel.

00:02:10.240 And they're delivering critically needed emergency supplies for those suffering as we speak.

00:02:15.780 There is a significant immediate need for essentials like food, medicine,

00:02:20.800 and emergency supplies for hundreds of thousands of suffering Jews.

00:02:25.140 Many cannot return to their homes because the rocket fire in the north from Hezbollah. 1.00

00:02:30.000 Israel is in desperate need.

00:02:32.380 And that's why we are partnering with the Fellowship.

00:02:35.120 And I want you to get involved.

00:02:36.580 Every donation is going to be used basically immediately.

00:02:41.280 If you want to help the people in Israel,

00:02:43.240 give to IFCJ by going to supportifcj.org.

00:02:48.600 That's supportifcj.org.

00:02:51.760 It's one word, supportifcj.org.

00:02:55.240 Now, here's the other great thing.

00:02:56.920 Your gift is going to be automatically matched to double in impact

00:03:01.140 and help you provide twice the support.

00:03:03.720 So it doesn't matter if it's even $5.

00:03:06.040 It turns into $10.

00:03:07.060 You get the point.

00:03:08.440 If you want to help the people that are in desperate need in Israel,

00:03:11.100 go to supportifcj.org right now.

00:03:14.800 That's supportifcj.org.

00:03:18.060 Senator, let's talk about the backdrop for what Schumer said

00:03:22.500 and why this timing is so significant.

00:03:25.500 I think it has a lot to do with the State of the Union.

00:03:27.920 I really want your opinion on that.

00:03:29.380 It was pretty clear that the president was kind of changing a little bit

00:03:33.940 his perspective and his words on Israel.

00:03:37.540 He was also caught on a hot mic that we talked about here on Verdict as well.

00:03:42.020 And as I watched Chuck Schumer say these words on the floor of the Senate yesterday,

00:03:47.840 there was honestly a part of me that I'm like,

00:03:50.500 I'm not even sure Chuck Schumer believes this,

00:03:52.540 and I want your take on that.

00:03:53.880 Maybe he really does.

00:03:54.840 But it was almost like it was a decision made within the Democratic Party.

00:04:00.020 Okay, we got to get people younger.

00:04:02.440 And a lot of the radicals of the Democratic Party,

00:04:04.880 the socialists and the Marxists and the communists,

00:04:07.840 they hate Israel.

00:04:09.020 They support Hamas and the Palestinians. 1.00

00:04:12.440 They believe that Israel is evil.

00:04:14.520 So let's placate to them.

00:04:16.380 I'll go give this speech that I would have never given before.

00:04:19.500 And maybe that'll get them back in an excitement to vote for us.

00:04:23.800 Is there a possibility that could have been part of what this is about,

00:04:27.460 just straight up selling out?

00:04:28.760 Or do you believe he actually believes what he's saying about getting rid of Netanyahu?

00:04:32.200 Well, I think there's several things that are going on.

00:04:34.340 Yes, I believe he believes what he's saying.

00:04:38.120 The Democrats have hated Netanyahu from the beginning.

00:04:41.160 They despise him.

00:04:42.660 They view him.

00:04:44.180 Democrats view Netanyahu as the Israeli equivalent of Donald Trump.

00:04:48.300 And they hate him with a comparable fury.

00:04:51.620 And much of that stems back to when Barack Obama was president

00:04:56.020 and Obama pushed forward the catastrophic Iran nuclear deal.

00:05:01.920 And they tried to muscle all of our allies into accepting it.

00:05:07.160 And the Obama White House tried to muscle congressional Democrats into accepting it.

00:05:12.380 Virtually every single congressional Democrat meekly knuckled under

00:05:16.860 to the Obama White House's pressure.

00:05:19.200 And Benjamin Netanyahu heroically stood up and said,

00:05:23.460 this is an existential threat to Israel. 0.77

00:05:25.680 That when the Ayatollah says death to Israel,

00:05:29.060 a nuclear Iran poses a very real threat of a mushroom cloud over Tehran or Jerusalem. 0.96

00:05:35.940 And it is the one threat on the face of the planet capable of once again murdering six million Jews. 0.91

00:05:43.740 If never again is to mean anything, Netanyahu argued rightly,

00:05:48.000 we cannot allow Iran to have a nuclear weapon.

00:05:50.980 And I'll tell you, Democrats have never forgiven him for daring to stand up to the Obama White House.

00:05:58.800 And I remember at the time there was a Republican House of Representatives

00:06:04.260 that invited Benjamin Netanyahu to speak to address a joint session of Congress.

00:06:08.840 I was there.

00:06:09.460 I heard that speech.

00:06:11.100 It was an historic speech.

00:06:13.060 It was a speech that I described then and I still consider to be Churchillian

00:06:17.200 in terms of its clarity, in terms of its strength,

00:06:20.760 in terms of its unwillingness to knuckle under.

00:06:23.940 And yet even back then, multiple Democrats boycotted the speech,

00:06:28.660 refused even to listen to the elected prime minister of Israel.

00:06:33.920 Well, that hatred is real.

00:06:36.260 That's one thing that's going on.

00:06:37.600 But then a second thing that's going on that is in many ways even more concerning

00:06:42.520 is the Democrat Party day by day by day is turning against Israel.

00:06:47.820 If you look at polling numbers now among Democrats,

00:06:50.780 if you ask Democrats, whom do you support, Israel or the Palestinians,

00:06:55.740 the numbers are growing every single day of Democrats who say,

00:06:59.760 we're with the Palestinians.

00:07:02.340 And here's the dirty little secret.

00:07:04.860 Some people are saying, well, it's just the squad.

00:07:07.100 It's just the radical anti-Semites on the far left of the Democrat Party.

00:07:11.760 They're the ones doing it. 0.92

00:07:12.940 And the crazies on college campuses.

00:07:15.520 I'll tell you, Ben, it's a lot more concerning than that.

00:07:17.840 It is the Biden White House.

00:07:19.920 It is Chuck Schumer, the self-declared guardian of Israel,

00:07:24.600 who is the median of the Democratic Party,

00:07:28.780 is steadily turning against Israel.

00:07:30.660 Here, just play Schumer's comments on the floor yesterday.

00:07:35.880 Israeli side, the U.S. government should demand that Israel conduct itself

00:07:41.840 with a future two-state solution in mind.

00:07:44.340 We should not be forced into a position of unequivocally supporting the actions of an Israeli government

00:07:51.160 that include bigots who reject the idea of a Palestinian state.

00:07:57.000 Israel is a democracy.

00:07:59.480 Five months into this conflict, it is clear that Israelis need to take stock of the situation

00:08:05.840 and ask, must we change course?

00:08:09.680 At this critical juncture, I believe a new election is the only way to allow for a healthy

00:08:18.080 and open decision-making process about the future of Israel,

00:08:22.140 at a time when so many Israelis have lost their confidence in the vision and direction of their government.

00:08:29.820 I also believe a majority of the Israeli public will recognize the need for change,

00:08:35.680 and I believe that holding a new election, once the war starts to wind down,

00:08:41.240 would give Israelis an opportunity to express their vision for the post-war future.

00:08:48.140 Of course, the United States cannot dictate the outcome of an election, nor should we try.

00:08:54.880 That is for the Israeli public to decide.

00:08:59.380 A public that I believe understands better than anybody

00:09:02.640 that Israel cannot hope to succeed as a pariah opposed by the rest of the world.

00:09:10.400 As a democracy, Israel has the right to choose its own leaders,

00:09:15.040 and we should let the chips fall where they may.

00:09:18.060 But the important thing is that Israelis are given a choice.

00:09:21.220 There needs to be a fresh debate about the future of Israel after October 7th.

00:09:27.540 In my opinion, that is best accomplished by holding an election.

00:09:34.340 If Prime Minister Netanyahu's current coalition remains in power after the war begins to wind down,

00:09:41.660 and continues to pursue dangerous and inflammatory policies that test existing U.S. standards for assistance,

00:09:48.380 then the United States will have no choice but to play a more active role in shaping Israeli policy

00:09:54.700 by using our leverage to change the present course.

00:09:59.980 The United States' bond with Israel is unbreakable, 0.96

00:10:03.500 but if extremists continue to unduly influence Israeli policy,

00:10:07.880 then the administration should use the tools at its disposal

00:10:10.840 to make sure our support for Israel is aligned with our broader goal

00:10:14.980 of achieving long-term peace and stability in the region.

00:10:19.560 I believe this would make a lasting two-state solution more likely.

00:10:25.720 Senator, you hear that.

00:10:26.940 I mean, he's basically giving the talking points for the Palestinian and Hamas.

00:10:31.320 Well, he's giving the talking points for the left wing of the Democrat Party.

00:10:38.240 And, all right, let's stop for a second.

00:10:42.040 One line that Schumer says there, he says,

00:10:45.100 Israel is a democracy, and that's true.

00:10:47.760 And he says they need to have an election.

00:10:49.940 Well, they did have an election.

00:10:52.160 They had an election, and Benjamin Netanyahu was elected.

00:10:56.100 He's the elected leader.

00:10:57.400 How would Schumer feel if Netanyahu gave a speech and said,

00:11:05.380 America is a democracy, and they should call an election today

00:11:09.400 to determine if Joe Biden should still be president?

00:11:12.800 That's what Schumer just said,

00:11:14.760 that he doesn't give a damn who the people of Israel elected.

00:11:19.500 Netanyahu was elected in a fair and square election.

00:11:22.060 Nobody disputes that.

00:11:23.660 It's just Chuck Schumer and the rest of the Democrat Party

00:11:27.260 doesn't like the choice that the people of Israel made.

00:11:33.700 And there is an arrogance to, if you listen to what he says,

00:11:38.080 he says there should be an immediate election.

00:11:40.560 And then he says if they elect Netanyahu again,

00:11:44.500 after we the Democrats have told them not to,

00:11:48.080 well, then we should use U.S. power

00:11:50.520 to force them to change their policy.

00:11:54.620 The absolute arrogance of that is stunning.

00:11:58.400 And by the way, you know,

00:12:00.600 some people pretend, well, Democrats,

00:12:05.700 they just dislike Netanyahu.

00:12:08.240 This is not directed at Israel.

00:12:12.220 Well, Benny Gantz, from the opposing party in Israel,

00:12:15.380 he put out a statement yesterday.

00:12:17.500 Here was Benny Gantz's statement, quote,

00:12:19.080 The United States and Israel share common values and interests,

00:12:22.940 and the citizens of Israel profoundly cherish

00:12:25.740 the clear stance of the United States in support of Israel

00:12:28.720 throughout these trying times.

00:12:30.960 The Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer is a friend of Israel,

00:12:34.360 and though he erred in his remarks,

00:12:37.440 plays an important role in assisting the state of Israel,

00:12:39.980 including during these difficult times.

00:12:43.640 Israel is a robust democracy,

00:12:45.740 and only its citizens will decide its future and leadership.

00:12:50.600 Any external interference on the matter

00:12:52.760 is counterproductive and unacceptable.

00:12:56.040 Well, what do you think Schumer was doing right there?

00:12:58.080 That's counterproductive and unacceptable.

00:13:00.800 And so, I mean, that demonstrates, look,

00:13:02.640 across the leadership in Israel,

00:13:05.340 there is consensus that Israel must defeat Hamas.

00:13:10.740 You know where there isn't consensus?

00:13:13.000 In the Democrat Party.

00:13:14.740 In the Democrat Party, and I got to say,

00:13:16.620 look, I serve with these guys.

00:13:18.260 I'm on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.

00:13:20.000 When we have a hearing,

00:13:21.620 almost every Democrat,

00:13:23.000 all they go on and on about is Gaza.

00:13:26.580 We've got to save Gaza. 0.94

00:13:28.100 We've got to give relief to Gaza.

00:13:29.660 It's as if October 7th didn't happen.

00:13:32.880 Understand where these Democrats are.

00:13:34.660 October 7th was a grotesque act of terrorism,

00:13:38.300 where Hamas terrorists murdered over 1,200 people. 0.99

00:13:42.260 They raped and murdered children. 0.94

00:13:44.680 They took over 200 hostages. 0.99

00:13:47.500 It was the single worst mass murder of Jews

00:13:50.040 since the Holocaust. 0.69

00:13:52.060 And the reaction of the American Democrat Party

00:13:55.040 is to pivot hard against Israel 0.64

00:13:57.920 and want to reward Hamas 0.85

00:14:01.560 and their sponsor, the nation of Iran,

00:14:05.320 for committing that grotesque act of terror.

00:14:08.420 You know, Mitch McConnell,

00:14:09.840 and look, you've been critical of McConnell.

00:14:12.760 I've been critical of McConnell many times in my life.

00:14:15.500 He's stepping down from leadership.

00:14:17.380 But I also think you've got to give credit

00:14:19.940 when credit's due.

00:14:21.700 And Mitch McConnell ripped Chuck Schumer 0.99

00:14:24.700 on the floor of the Senate.

00:14:25.860 I think it's important we play this

00:14:28.000 because this is honestly one of,

00:14:30.980 I think, the best moments

00:14:32.960 of Mitch McConnell's time in the Senate.

00:14:35.560 Unequivocally saying,

00:14:36.820 we stand with Israel,

00:14:38.220 but also calling out the radical left

00:14:40.700 who is dictating now the Democratic Party,

00:14:43.940 masquerading as Democrats

00:14:45.100 that are extremists

00:14:46.600 and radicals that are young,

00:14:49.520 forcing them to the most extreme viewpoints.

00:14:52.560 Here is Mitch McConnell in his own words.

00:14:54.580 The state of Israel

00:14:56.660 deserves an ally

00:14:59.060 that acts like one.

00:15:02.480 The people of Israel

00:15:03.360 at home and in captivity

00:15:06.460 deserve America's support.

00:15:11.560 And Israel's unity government

00:15:13.020 and security cabinet

00:15:14.440 deserve the deference

00:15:17.000 befitting a sovereign democratic country.

00:15:22.180 The primary obstacles

00:15:23.860 to peace in Israel's region 0.80

00:15:26.880 are genocidal terrorists 0.99

00:15:29.440 like Hamas 0.99

00:15:31.520 and Palestinian Islamic Jihad

00:15:35.920 who slaughter innocent people 0.99

00:15:39.520 and corrupt leaders 0.99

00:15:42.120 of the Palestinian Authority 0.89

00:15:44.220 who have repeatedly,

00:15:46.380 repeatedly rejected peace deals

00:15:48.380 from multiple Israeli governments.

00:15:50.900 And foreign observers

00:15:54.740 who cannot keep

00:15:56.920 these clear distinctions

00:15:59.320 ought to refrain

00:16:02.960 from weighing in.

00:16:05.300 It is grotesque 0.98

00:16:08.420 and hypocritical 1.00

00:16:10.740 for Americans 1.00

00:16:12.680 who hyperventilate

00:16:13.960 about foreign interference

00:16:15.220 in our own democracy

00:16:16.660 to call for the removal

00:16:19.140 of the democratically elected

00:16:21.360 leader of Israel.

00:16:23.820 This is unprecedented.

00:16:26.720 We should not treat

00:16:27.780 fellow democracies

00:16:28.920 this way at all.

00:16:31.360 Things that upset

00:16:32.860 left-wing activists

00:16:33.780 are not

00:16:34.280 a prime minister's policies.

00:16:37.620 There is Israel's policies.

00:16:41.860 Make no mistake.

00:16:43.900 The Democratic Party

00:16:44.840 doesn't have an anti-PB problem.

00:16:47.880 It has an anti-Israel problem.

00:16:51.940 Israel is not a colony of America

00:16:54.800 whose leaders serve

00:16:57.160 at the pleasure

00:16:57.940 of the party in power

00:17:00.120 in Washington.

00:17:02.100 Only Israel's citizens 0.99

00:17:03.860 should have a say

00:17:05.760 in who runs

00:17:07.380 their government.

00:17:09.440 This is the very definition

00:17:11.040 of democracy

00:17:11.840 and sovereignty.

00:17:13.980 I mean, Senator,

00:17:14.960 you hear him there.

00:17:15.940 He's spot on.

00:17:17.180 But he also reminds

00:17:18.400 the history of like,

00:17:19.400 you think it's easy?

00:17:20.400 You think Israel 0.99

00:17:21.000 just shows up

00:17:21.600 and says to the Palestinians

00:17:23.220 who are backed by Hamas

00:17:24.560 who are backed by Iran,

00:17:25.960 hey, let's have this,

00:17:26.980 you know,

00:17:27.380 kumbaya moment

00:17:28.160 of ceasefire here.

00:17:29.520 Do we need to not remind you

00:17:31.100 of what just happened

00:17:31.940 five months ago?

00:17:34.620 Well, and let me commend

00:17:36.140 Mitch McConnell

00:17:36.760 for those remarks

00:17:37.660 because he didn't know

00:17:38.580 Chuck Schumer

00:17:39.000 was going to give this speech.

00:17:40.500 He was sitting there

00:17:41.420 and just heard it

00:17:42.220 and he got up

00:17:43.100 and that was his

00:17:43.660 impromptu response.

00:17:45.240 And that was eloquent.

00:17:46.540 It was powerful.

00:17:47.500 It was effective.

00:17:49.040 And notice

00:17:50.320 what Mitch said there,

00:17:52.520 which is exactly

00:17:53.160 what you and I said

00:17:54.280 at the beginning

00:17:54.660 of this podcast.

00:17:56.220 The Democrats

00:17:57.060 don't have

00:17:57.920 an anti-BB policy.

00:18:00.100 They have an anti-Israel

00:18:01.680 problem.

00:18:03.480 And it's not just

00:18:05.780 the squad.

00:18:07.840 It is supposedly

00:18:09.260 mainstream Democrats.

00:18:10.880 And look,

00:18:11.320 this troubles me.

00:18:12.180 I have been,

00:18:13.520 I was elected

00:18:14.240 to the Senate

00:18:14.680 12 years ago.

00:18:16.160 When I first arrived

00:18:17.360 at the Senate,

00:18:17.960 I resolved on day one

00:18:19.220 to be the leading defender

00:18:21.040 of Israel in the Senate.

00:18:21.960 and I've worked hard

00:18:22.680 to do that

00:18:23.200 every day since then.

00:18:25.120 It is important

00:18:26.260 for the U.S.-Israel

00:18:27.740 relationship

00:18:28.400 to have

00:18:29.580 bipartisan cooperation.

00:18:31.060 It's important

00:18:31.680 that Israel

00:18:32.880 not be

00:18:33.660 just a partisan issue

00:18:35.060 like so many

00:18:35.640 other issues are.

00:18:37.320 I have to say

00:18:38.520 it is deeply saddening

00:18:39.880 and it is really

00:18:41.820 dangerous

00:18:42.520 that the

00:18:44.100 Democrat Party

00:18:44.880 today

00:18:45.260 does not resemble

00:18:46.360 in any way,

00:18:47.140 shape,

00:18:47.360 or form

00:18:47.760 the Democrat Party

00:18:48.660 12 years ago

00:18:49.600 when I arrived

00:18:50.980 in the Senate

00:18:51.480 because the party

00:18:53.680 as a whole

00:18:54.540 is turning

00:18:55.260 day by day

00:18:57.720 steadily

00:18:58.300 more and more

00:18:59.020 hostile to Israel. 0.83

00:19:00.660 And I got to say

00:19:01.620 and I don't mean

00:19:02.100 this as hyperbole,

00:19:03.400 if you are a voter

00:19:05.220 who cares about Israel, 0.92

00:19:07.560 who loves Israel,

00:19:08.680 at this point

00:19:10.160 I genuinely

00:19:10.980 do not know

00:19:11.940 how a voter

00:19:12.640 who cares about

00:19:13.460 and loves Israel

00:19:14.280 could cast a ballot

00:19:15.840 for the Democrats.

00:19:17.420 That that is

00:19:18.280 fundamentally

00:19:19.480 inconsistent

00:19:20.320 with where

00:19:20.840 this Democrat Party

00:19:21.780 is

00:19:22.060 and I'll tell you

00:19:22.940 likewise

00:19:23.420 there are 51

00:19:25.380 Democrats

00:19:25.920 in the Senate

00:19:26.480 counting

00:19:27.340 two who call

00:19:28.680 themselves

00:19:29.040 independent.

00:19:30.660 Every one of them

00:19:31.820 should be asked

00:19:33.340 do you support

00:19:35.340 Chuck Schumer

00:19:36.080 attacking

00:19:37.740 the nation

00:19:38.740 of Israel

00:19:39.300 and demanding

00:19:41.260 that the elected

00:19:42.180 leader of Israel

00:19:42.900 step down

00:19:43.620 and in my view

00:19:44.880 every Democrat

00:19:47.520 in the Senate

00:19:48.000 is responsible for it.

00:19:49.000 No one in the press

00:19:49.760 will ask them

00:19:50.220 that question

00:19:50.700 and they'll all

00:19:51.860 dodge it

00:19:52.380 but every Senate

00:19:54.260 Democrat

00:19:54.660 who is running

00:19:55.340 for re-election

00:19:56.080 in November

00:19:57.500 should be forced

00:19:59.280 to decide

00:19:59.840 and the sad thing

00:20:00.640 is I believe

00:20:01.420 every one of them

00:20:02.460 all of them

00:20:03.320 will stand

00:20:04.260 with Schumer

00:20:04.760 on this.

00:20:05.520 This is where

00:20:06.360 the party is

00:20:07.140 and that's really

00:20:08.840 it is a terrible

00:20:10.960 development

00:20:11.460 for Israel

00:20:12.900 and it's a terrible

00:20:13.600 development for America.

00:20:14.740 Well let's

00:20:16.640 give a little bit

00:20:17.440 of a history

00:20:17.900 lesson here

00:20:18.680 for people

00:20:19.440 that may not

00:20:20.300 remember

00:20:20.880 all of the

00:20:22.540 and it's not

00:20:23.300 that distant

00:20:24.000 past

00:20:24.700 but it's important

00:20:25.640 and it was

00:20:26.560 referenced there

00:20:27.140 by Schumer

00:20:27.720 there have been

00:20:29.560 quite a few times

00:20:30.960 where there were

00:20:31.480 these quote

00:20:31.980 ceasefires

00:20:32.720 and let's get

00:20:33.440 along moments

00:20:34.300 not once

00:20:35.940 is it Israel

00:20:36.660 that's been

00:20:37.060 the aggressor

00:20:37.660 afterwards

00:20:38.160 every single

00:20:39.600 time

00:20:40.260 it's been

00:20:41.320 the terrorists

00:20:42.360 that have

00:20:43.480 gone after

00:20:44.020 Israel

00:20:44.520 people forget

00:20:45.980 what it's like

00:20:46.700 to live

00:20:47.240 in Israel

00:20:48.000 under the

00:20:49.320 constant barrage

00:20:50.100 of rockets

00:20:50.620 they forget

00:20:51.340 that every time

00:20:52.060 they do a deal

00:20:53.000 that within

00:20:53.960 weeks or months

00:20:55.060 it's somebody

00:20:56.820 on the on the

00:20:57.640 Palestinian side

00:20:58.360 is trying to

00:20:59.240 blow that deal

00:21:00.620 up figuratively

00:21:01.760 literally

00:21:02.560 and they forget

00:21:04.500 that Israel

00:21:05.600 has tried

00:21:06.380 to live

00:21:06.980 in peace

00:21:07.720 in a defensive

00:21:08.560 manner

00:21:08.900 not offensive

00:21:09.800 manner

00:21:10.240 that's exactly

00:21:12.000 right

00:21:12.400 you know

00:21:13.320 many years

00:21:13.860 ago

00:21:14.220 Golda Meir

00:21:14.840 who was

00:21:15.500 the former

00:21:16.320 prime minister

00:21:16.880 of Israel

00:21:17.620 said quote

00:21:19.180 peace will

00:21:20.300 come to the

00:21:20.740 Middle East

00:21:21.240 when the Arabs 0.92

00:21:22.440 will love

00:21:23.020 their children

00:21:23.780 more than

00:21:25.620 they hate

00:21:26.040 us

00:21:26.440 and Golda Meir

00:21:27.820 also said

00:21:28.460 the following

00:21:28.920 quote

00:21:29.300 if the Arabs 0.78

00:21:30.900 put down

00:21:31.420 their weapons

00:21:31.940 today

00:21:32.340 there would

00:21:33.620 be no more

00:21:34.100 violence 0.99

00:21:34.620 if the Jews 0.99

00:21:36.140 put down 0.98

00:21:36.660 their weapons

00:21:37.160 today

00:21:37.580 there would

00:21:38.840 be no more

00:21:39.620 Israel

00:21:40.460 that is

00:21:41.900 the simple

00:21:42.420 reality

00:21:43.000 that this

00:21:44.100 has been

00:21:44.440 a war

00:21:44.920 of aggression

00:21:45.540 it was

00:21:46.100 not

00:21:46.440 Israel

00:21:47.400 that

00:21:48.860 launched

00:21:49.580 this attack

00:21:50.180 on October

00:21:50.660 7th

00:21:51.280 it was

00:21:52.440 Hamas 0.96

00:21:53.000 it was

00:21:54.120 directed

00:21:54.620 at

00:21:55.420 innocent

00:21:56.700 civilians

00:21:57.280 I'll tell you

00:21:57.900 I have sat

00:21:58.600 with the

00:21:58.980 families

00:21:59.480 of

00:22:00.860 victims

00:22:02.460 of murder

00:22:03.420 on October

00:22:04.360 7th

00:22:05.040 and of

00:22:05.940 kidnapping

00:22:06.500 victims

00:22:06.960 I have

00:22:07.440 seen

00:22:08.020 photographs

00:22:09.700 horrible

00:22:10.360 photographs

00:22:10.880 I sat

00:22:11.540 recently

00:22:12.060 and went

00:22:12.420 through

00:22:12.620 photograph

00:22:13.020 after photograph

00:22:13.800 of

00:22:14.660 women 1.00

00:22:15.580 brutalized 0.90

00:22:17.980 violently 0.99

00:22:19.420 raped 0.92

00:22:19.980 and 0.99

00:22:20.260 sexually 0.61

00:22:21.420 disfigured 1.00

00:22:22.220 where

00:22:22.480 I mean

00:22:23.580 the brutality

00:22:24.500 of it

00:22:25.260 is horrific

00:22:25.800 and I also

00:22:26.540 watched

00:22:27.160 nearly an

00:22:28.300 hour

00:22:28.680 of video

00:22:29.440 footage

00:22:29.960 of what

00:22:30.340 happened

00:22:30.800 on October

00:22:32.440 7th

00:22:33.340 that footage

00:22:34.540 I saw

00:22:34.980 over 100

00:22:35.440 people

00:22:35.800 murdered

00:22:36.140 watch

00:22:36.660 the footage

00:22:37.260 of it

00:22:37.520 I've never

00:22:37.780 seen that

00:22:38.140 before

00:22:38.400 in my

00:22:38.620 life

00:22:38.840 it is

00:22:39.120 horrific

00:22:39.560 and

00:22:40.260 stomach

00:22:40.740 turning

00:22:41.140 and Israel

00:22:41.740 is defending

00:22:42.540 itself

00:22:43.120 and yet

00:22:44.040 the

00:22:45.120 Democrat

00:22:45.580 position

00:22:46.260 today

00:22:46.860 they look

00:22:48.360 at this

00:22:48.760 battle

00:22:49.120 and they

00:22:50.120 cannot

00:22:50.520 bring

00:22:50.960 themselves

00:22:51.520 to say

00:22:52.200 Israel

00:22:53.200 is on

00:22:53.660 the side

00:22:54.120 of truth

00:22:54.580 and

00:22:54.760 righteousness

00:22:55.200 and Hamas

00:22:57.200 is on

00:22:57.880 the side

00:22:58.400 of evil

00:22:59.040 this is

00:23:00.240 civilization

00:23:01.040 versus

00:23:01.580 barbarism

00:23:02.380 and in

00:23:03.140 the Democrat

00:23:03.640 Party

00:23:04.160 you are 0.97

00:23:05.720 a pariah 0.88

00:23:06.500 for saying

00:23:07.260 that

00:23:07.520 for acknowledging

00:23:08.300 that

00:23:08.760 you look

00:23:10.000 at

00:23:10.200 you know

00:23:10.520 Joe Biden

00:23:11.160 certainly

00:23:11.540 didn't say

00:23:12.120 that

00:23:12.440 during the

00:23:13.600 State of

00:23:13.900 the Union

00:23:14.260 instead

00:23:14.580 he said

00:23:15.040 that his

00:23:15.360 priority

00:23:15.860 is to

00:23:16.260 build

00:23:16.520 an emergency

00:23:17.100 peer

00:23:17.560 into

00:23:18.140 Gaza

00:23:18.480 and by

00:23:18.860 the way

00:23:19.220 Chuck

00:23:20.660 Schumer

00:23:20.960 says

00:23:21.300 well gosh

00:23:21.880 we won't

00:23:23.200 stand with

00:23:23.740 the bigots

00:23:24.360 who don't

00:23:25.000 want a

00:23:25.380 Palestinian

00:23:25.900 state

00:23:26.420 well you

00:23:26.740 know

00:23:26.820 it's

00:23:26.980 interesting

00:23:27.280 there is

00:23:27.600 a

00:23:27.720 Palestinian

00:23:28.140 state

00:23:28.580 it's

00:23:29.240 called

00:23:29.440 Gaza

00:23:29.840 Gaza

00:23:31.020 is

00:23:32.460 governed

00:23:32.940 by the

00:23:33.340 Palestinians

00:23:33.820 Israel

00:23:34.720 does not

00:23:35.220 have

00:23:35.400 sovereignty

00:23:35.780 over

00:23:36.060 Gaza

00:23:36.680 Israel

00:23:37.280 left

00:23:37.620 Gaza

00:23:37.900 they

00:23:38.100 handed

00:23:38.320 it

00:23:38.520 over

00:23:38.660 to

00:23:38.760 the

00:23:38.840 Palestinians

00:23:39.280 said

00:23:39.560 here

00:23:39.740 it's

00:23:39.920 all

00:23:40.080 yours

00:23:40.480 the

00:23:41.260 Palestinians

00:23:41.800 had an

00:23:42.320 election

00:23:42.660 you know

00:23:42.920 who won

00:23:43.180 the election

00:23:43.600 in Gaza

00:23:44.040 Hamas 0.96

00:23:46.200 it's

00:23:47.980 curious

00:23:48.380 why didn't

00:23:48.940 Chuck

00:23:49.200 Schumer

00:23:49.460 give a

00:23:49.820 speech

00:23:55.680 he

00:23:55.820 didn't

00:23:55.980 say

00:23:56.160 that

00:23:56.460 instead

00:23:57.780 today's

00:23:58.560 Democrat

00:23:58.900 party

00:24:03.220 leader

00:24:03.760 of

00:24:03.980 Israel

00:24:04.280 and it

00:24:04.820 is

00:24:05.000 grotesque 0.97

00:24:05.880 you

00:24:06.260 mentioned

00:24:06.820 you

00:24:07.260 watching

00:24:07.600 that

00:24:07.800 video

00:24:08.100 I

00:24:08.420 last

00:24:09.040 week

00:24:09.420 was

00:24:09.720 asked

00:24:10.020 to

00:24:10.200 go

00:24:10.380 to

00:24:10.680 the

00:24:10.860 Israeli

00:24:11.160 consul

00:24:11.780 and

00:24:13.140 have a

00:24:13.740 meeting

00:24:13.980 and an

00:24:14.320 update

00:24:14.720 on

00:24:15.240 what's

00:24:15.600 happening

00:24:16.000 right

00:24:16.740 now

00:24:17.220 specifically

00:24:18.360 with the

00:24:19.740 number of

00:24:20.260 people

00:24:20.500 that are

00:24:20.740 still

00:24:20.980 being

00:24:21.260 held

00:24:21.580 hostage

00:24:22.000 as we

00:24:23.600 speak

00:24:24.060 and there

00:24:25.060 was a

00:24:25.420 book

00:24:25.700 that we

00:24:26.120 were able

00:24:26.500 to look

00:24:27.360 at

00:24:27.680 and see

00:24:28.300 the faces

00:24:28.940 of the

00:24:30.160 people

00:24:30.460 that are

00:24:30.760 still being

00:24:31.280 held

00:24:31.500 hostage

00:24:31.800 that you

00:24:32.140 hope

00:24:32.420 are alive

00:24:32.980 that you

00:24:33.440 know

00:24:33.640 are being

00:24:34.180 kept

00:24:35.900 in

00:24:36.200 unimaginable

00:24:37.420 conditions

00:24:38.840 and we

00:24:40.660 know that

00:24:41.080 they have

00:24:41.420 tortured 1.00

00:24:41.860 and raped 1.00

00:24:42.760 and killed 1.00

00:24:43.540 many

00:24:44.540 of the

00:24:45.820 hostages

00:24:46.220 but when

00:24:46.560 you look

00:24:46.860 at these

00:24:47.100 pictures

00:24:47.660 senator

00:24:48.020 and you

00:24:48.820 you and

00:24:49.220 I have

00:24:49.400 talked about

00:24:49.900 what that

00:24:50.400 video looked

00:24:50.980 like that

00:24:51.300 you saw

00:24:51.860 you look

00:24:53.400 at these

00:24:53.720 people

00:24:54.180 and I

00:24:55.000 it is

00:24:55.480 sad to

00:24:56.000 me that

00:24:56.320 the media

00:24:56.780 has not

00:24:57.280 done a

00:24:57.540 better job

00:24:58.060 of humanizing

00:24:59.120 there were

00:25:00.680 people in

00:25:01.360 their upper

00:25:01.960 80s

00:25:02.860 yes

00:25:03.220 who couldn't

00:25:04.020 defend

00:25:04.320 themselves

00:25:04.800 against being

00:25:05.400 abducted

00:25:05.900 on that

00:25:06.240 day

00:25:06.620 there were

00:25:07.680 infants and

00:25:08.320 toddlers

00:25:08.740 there were

00:25:10.800 infants and

00:25:11.420 toddlers

00:25:11.860 murdered 1.00

00:25:12.700 and raped 1.00

00:25:13.560 yeah 0.99

00:25:15.200 and and

00:25:16.560 there was

00:25:16.900 the elderly

00:25:17.700 that couldn't

00:25:18.320 defend

00:25:18.600 themselves or

00:25:19.180 even get

00:25:19.520 out of their

00:25:19.840 wheelchair

00:25:20.140 I mean they

00:25:20.820 were at the

00:25:21.220 mercy of the

00:25:21.840 attackers

00:25:22.300 and you look

00:25:23.780 at the people

00:25:24.300 that they took

00:25:24.860 hostage

00:25:25.260 they wanted

00:25:27.360 nobody in

00:25:29.420 Israel to

00:25:30.160 ever feel safe

00:25:31.220 again that's

00:25:31.880 part of the

00:25:32.400 terrorism of

00:25:33.680 that day

00:25:34.260 they wanted

00:25:35.360 everyone to

00:25:36.560 feel like they

00:25:37.180 could be next

00:25:38.060 and that they

00:25:38.620 were coming for

00:25:39.420 them as well

00:25:40.120 like you said

00:25:41.100 whether it's

00:25:41.520 toddlers in

00:25:42.240 their cribs

00:25:42.880 or a 90

00:25:44.380 year old

00:25:44.680 great great

00:25:45.160 grandmother

00:25:45.660 they this

00:25:47.700 was psychological

00:25:48.500 warfare on

00:25:49.500 the most

00:25:49.880 grotesque and

00:25:50.900 horrific level

00:25:51.880 and it was

00:25:52.820 pre-planned

00:25:53.780 and orchestrated

00:25:54.920 it wasn't

00:25:55.400 one madman 0.86

00:25:56.380 this was a 1.00

00:25:57.640 terrorist

00:25:58.200 organization

00:25:59.160 that used

00:26:00.220 countless

00:26:00.860 warriors to

00:26:01.960 do this

00:26:02.620 well and

00:26:03.740 understand

00:26:04.500 that's not

00:26:06.080 one isolated

00:26:06.800 event Chuck

00:26:07.540 Schumer's 0.51

00:26:08.080 disgraceful speech

00:26:09.060 is not one

00:26:10.180 isolated event

00:26:11.060 this is

00:26:12.560 comprehensive

00:26:13.380 throughout the

00:26:14.200 biden

00:26:14.460 administration

00:26:15.020 and throughout

00:26:15.940 congressional

00:26:16.920 democrats

00:26:17.580 just in the

00:26:18.700 last 24

00:26:19.320 hours

00:26:19.720 joe biden

00:26:21.120 and biden

00:26:21.520 administrations

00:26:22.300 they gave

00:26:22.800 iran a

00:26:23.960 10 billion

00:26:25.400 dollar sanctions

00:26:26.400 waiver

00:26:26.760 also in the

00:26:28.180 last 24

00:26:28.800 hours

00:26:29.160 explain that

00:26:29.360 by the way

00:26:29.740 because it

00:26:30.200 sounds complicated

00:26:31.200 but i really

00:26:31.880 think it's

00:26:32.400 important that

00:26:32.820 we explain

00:26:33.280 this what

00:26:34.140 does that

00:26:34.480 mean because

00:26:34.820 we already

00:26:35.120 given them

00:26:35.580 billions in

00:26:36.140 actual cash

00:26:36.980 so i will

00:26:38.500 but i want to

00:26:39.520 underscore just

00:26:40.100 what's happened

00:26:40.640 in the last

00:26:41.000 24 hours

00:26:41.720 in the last

00:26:42.800 24 hours

00:26:43.540 they gave

00:26:43.940 iran a

00:26:44.360 10 billion

00:26:44.820 dollar sanctions

00:26:45.480 waiver

00:26:45.780 they also

00:26:47.200 the biden

00:26:47.960 administration

00:26:48.600 directly

00:26:49.440 sanctioned

00:26:50.640 israeli jews

00:26:51.740 they also

00:26:52.880 said israel's

00:26:53.700 top priority

00:26:54.500 should be

00:26:55.700 aiding

00:26:56.180 gazans

00:26:56.900 and the

00:26:59.140 majority leader

00:26:59.840 of the senate

00:27:00.400 demanded

00:27:01.100 the overthrow

00:27:03.060 of israel's

00:27:03.940 democratically

00:27:04.500 elected government

00:27:05.340 in the middle

00:27:06.300 of a war

00:27:07.060 all of that

00:27:08.100 happened

00:27:08.460 within 24

00:27:09.100 hours

00:27:09.380 now you

00:27:09.640 ask

00:27:09.920 what happened

00:27:22.220 for the

00:27:22.960 iranian government

00:27:23.720 and this

00:27:24.100 was according

00:27:24.580 to a notice

00:27:38.940 waiver was

00:27:39.520 last approved

00:27:40.300 by the biden

00:27:41.220 administration

00:27:41.840 in november

00:34:08.920 they

00:34:09.100 care

00:34:09.360 about

00:34:09.640 and

00:34:09.760 they

00:34:09.820 try

00:34:10.640 to

00:34:10.820 rationalize

00:34:11.520 no

00:34:12.320 it's

00:34:12.640 it's

00:34:12.860 just

00:34:13.060 AOC

00:34:13.800 just

00:34:14.060 Omar

00:34:14.440 it's

00:34:14.720 just

00:34:14.880 the

00:34:20.900 States

00:34:21.240 Senate

00:34:21.540 and

00:34:22.540 by

00:34:22.780 the

00:34:22.900 way

00:34:23.180 it

00:34:24.180 was

00:34:24.380 Joe

00:34:24.660 Biden

00:34:25.060 so

00:34:26.200 Joe

00:34:26.620 Biden

00:34:26.960 who

00:34:27.200 just

00:34:27.720 10

00:34:28.020 billion

00:34:28.300 dollars

00:34:28.640 to

00:34:29.740 after

00:34:30.640 October

00:34:31.760 7th

00:34:32.580 and I

00:34:33.120 mentioned

00:34:33.400 a minute

00:34:33.660 ago

00:34:33.920 the

00:34:34.100 sanctions

00:34:34.440 on

00:34:34.660 Israel

00:34:35.000 yesterday

00:34:37.020 the

00:34:38.260 Biden

00:34:38.560 administration

00:34:39.040 put even

00:34:39.720 more

00:34:40.160 sanctions

00:34:40.700 but they

00:34:42.380 only

00:34:42.840 applied

00:34:43.360 it

00:34:43.540 to

00:34:43.740 Jews

00:34:44.100 they

00:34:44.300 sanctioned

00:34:44.820 four

00:34:45.020 Jews

00:34:45.360 yesterday

00:34:45.900 and

00:34:46.860 I

00:34:47.120 recently

00:34:47.500 questioned

00:34:48.140 Biden's

00:34:48.620 nominee

00:34:48.900 to

00:34:49.060 be

00:34:49.180 sanctions

00:34:49.600 are

00:34:49.940 and

00:34:51.800 in

00:34:51.960 charge

00:34:52.180 of

00:34:52.320 sanctions

00:34:52.680 and

00:34:52.840 there

00:34:53.140 an

00:34:53.260 executive

00:34:53.640 order

00:34:54.040 that

00:34:55.020 is

00:34:55.140 essentially

00:34:55.580 targeting

00:34:56.040 Jews 0.91

00:34:56.500 and

00:34:57.640 he

00:34:57.760 claimed

00:34:58.120 and

00:34:58.720 basically

00:34:59.220 they

00:34:59.480 want

00:34:59.680 to

00:34:59.760 make

00:34:59.920 it

00:35:00.000 illegal

00:35:00.320 to

00:35:00.480 be

00:35:00.620 Jewish

00:35:00.980 and

00:35:01.220 living

00:35:01.460 in

00:35:01.680 Judea

00:35:02.100 and

00:35:03.040 Samara

00:35:03.460 and

00:35:04.660 he

00:35:05.320 said

00:35:05.560 well

00:35:05.760 no

00:35:05.940 no

00:35:06.040 it

00:35:07.040 target

00:35:07.360 Jews 0.90

00:35:07.740 and

00:35:08.540 so

00:35:08.700 I

00:35:08.860 asked

00:35:09.100 him

00:35:09.220 I

00:35:09.340 said

00:35:09.540 well

00:35:20.680 more

00:35:20.960 Jews

00:35:22.520 is

00:35:22.760 prevalent

00:35:23.240 throughout

00:35:23.660 the

00:35:23.880 administration

00:35:24.360 and

00:35:25.320 it
