00:06:26.002 --> 00:06:26.703
Look, this is very different than iraq or really any other
00:06:26.836 --> 00:06:30.874
Than iraq or really any other war that's that's taken place
00:06:31.007 --> 00:06:34.010
War that's that's taken place over the past decades.
00:06:34.143 --> 00:06:34.611
Over the past decades. the iranian people want change.
00:06:34.744 --> 00:06:37.413
The iranian people want change. percent of the iranian people
00:06:39.582 --> 00:06:40.316
Percent of the iranian people don't identify with this regime
00:06:40.450 --> 00:06:43.753
Don't identify with this regime and they're rising up.
00:06:43.887 --> 00:06:44.354
And they're rising up. i mean we saw what they did
00:06:44.487 --> 00:06:45.255
I mean we saw what they did last month.
00:06:45.388 --> 00:06:47.290
Last month. tens of thousands were willing
00:06:47.423 --> 00:06:48.024
Tens of thousands were willing to give their lives for freedom
00:06:48.157 --> 00:06:51.294
To give their lives for freedom so boots on the ground will be
00:06:51.427 --> 00:06:52.061
So boots on the ground will be there but they're going to come
00:06:52.195 --> 00:06:52.829
There but they're going to come from the iranian.
00:06:52.962 --> 00:06:55.398
From the iranian. there are many minorities that
00:06:55.532 --> 00:06:58.768
There are many minorities that that have had the boot of the
00:06:58.902 --> 00:06:59.602
That have had the boot of the ayatollahs on their necks now
00:06:59.736 --> 00:07:00.336
Ayatollahs on their necks now for 47 years and they're ready
00:07:00.470 --> 00:07:03.339
For 47 years and they're ready to rise up and take charge.
00:07:03.473 --> 00:07:06.910
To rise up and take charge. what we need is to move into a
00:07:07.043 --> 00:07:07.977
What we need is to move into a phase of a transitional
00:07:08.111 --> 00:07:08.611
Phase of a transitional government that will be
00:07:08.745 --> 00:07:10.647
Government that will be comprised of the various
00:07:10.780 --> 00:07:11.281
Comprised of the various opposition parties, various
00:07:11.414 --> 00:07:14.450
Opposition parties, various until they can actually move
00:07:14.584 --> 00:07:15.184
Until they can actually move the country into free and open
00:07:15.318 --> 00:07:15.952
The country into free and open elections say in a year's time
00:07:16.085 --> 00:07:18.821
Elections say in a year's time or so.
00:07:18.955 --> 00:07:19.122
Or so. but the first part of this
00:07:19.255 --> 00:07:22.091
But the first part of this objective is to bring regime
00:07:22.225 --> 00:07:25.962
Objective is to bring regime down.
00:07:26.095 --> 00:07:26.262
Down. it's regime collapse not regime
00:07:26.396 --> 00:07:27.030
It's regime collapse not regime change at this point collapse
00:07:27.163 --> 00:07:29.832
Change at this point collapse because you can't have
00:07:29.966 --> 00:07:30.500
Because you can't have ayatollahs.
00:07:30.633 --> 00:07:33.970
Ayatollahs. these people are believers.
00:07:34.103 --> 00:07:34.671
These people are believers. they believe that everyone
00:07:34.804 --> 00:07:35.338
They believe that everyone across has to come under the
00:07:35.471 --> 00:07:38.308
Across has to come under the boot of their brand brand of
00:07:38.441 --> 00:07:42.178
Boot of their brand brand of islam.
00:07:42.312 --> 00:07:42.478
Islam. this is not venezuela.
00:07:42.612 --> 00:07:43.079
This is not venezuela. it's not a bunch of thugs that
00:07:43.212 --> 00:07:43.813
It's not a bunch of thugs that are selling drugs are people
00:07:43.947 --> 00:07:45.915
Are selling drugs are people who believe that you and i have
00:07:46.049 --> 00:07:46.683
Who believe that you and i have to change our beliefs and if we
00:07:46.816 --> 00:07:50.253
To change our beliefs and if we don't we have to be subservient
00:07:50.386 --> 00:07:51.054
Don't we have to be subservient to them.
00:07:51.187 --> 00:07:51.387
To them. >> well it's interesting that
00:07:51.521 --> 00:07:53.556
>> well it's interesting that they formed an alliance with
00:07:53.690 --> 00:07:54.290
They formed an alliance with venezuela and you know what is
00:07:54.424 --> 00:07:57.694
Venezuela and you know what is the influence of this islamic
00:07:57.827 --> 00:07:58.428
The influence of this islamic ideal in the leadership of
00:07:58.561 --> 00:08:01.764
Ideal in the leadership of venezuela but leaving issue
00:08:01.898 --> 00:08:05.368
Venezuela but leaving issue aside just the sheer
00:08:05.501 --> 00:08:06.069
Aside just the sheer penetration ideology within the
00:08:06.202 --> 00:08:09.038
Penetration ideology within the country, just as we've seen
00:08:09.172 --> 00:08:09.739
Country, just as we've seen with hamas in gaza that it just
00:08:09.872 --> 00:08:13.776
With hamas in gaza that it just seems the civilian population
00:08:13.910 --> 00:08:17.313
Seems the civilian population wants to help them hold
00:08:17.447 --> 00:08:17.981
Wants to help them hold captives, wants to help them
00:08:18.114 --> 00:08:18.715
Captives, wants to help them disguise the tunnels.
00:08:18.848 --> 00:08:21.417
Disguise the tunnels. does it seem to have a big
00:08:21.551 --> 00:08:22.218
Does it seem to have a big problem with the hospital and
00:08:22.352 --> 00:08:26.189
Problem with the hospital and the schools being used as
00:08:26.322 --> 00:08:26.856
The schools being used as fronts and even you know, their
00:08:26.990 --> 00:08:30.126
Fronts and even you know, their own children being offered up
00:08:30.259 --> 00:08:30.860
Own children being offered up and sacrificed to this
00:08:30.994 --> 00:08:33.896
And sacrificed to this ideology?
00:08:34.030 --> 00:08:34.263
Ideology? >> how deep does it.
00:08:34.397 --> 00:08:37.400
>> how deep does it. i'm hearing reports there are
00:08:37.533 --> 00:08:38.234
I'm hearing reports there are over 2000 republican guard
00:08:38.368 --> 00:08:40.970
Over 2000 republican guard generals, the clerics trying to
00:08:41.104 --> 00:08:44.440
Generals, the clerics trying to elect a new ayatollah.
00:08:44.574 --> 00:08:48.211
Elect a new ayatollah. >> is it really possible to
00:08:48.344 --> 00:08:49.178
>> is it really possible to change or not?
00:08:49.312 --> 00:08:53.850
Change or not? absolutely is.
00:08:53.983 --> 00:08:54.283
Absolutely is. as i said, only 20% of the
00:08:54.417 --> 00:08:55.151
As i said, only 20% of the population identifies but 20%
00:08:55.284 --> 00:08:58.688
Population identifies but 20% in a country of over 90 million
00:08:58.821 --> 00:08:59.489
In a country of over 90 million people a significant you know
00:08:59.622 --> 00:09:02.725
People a significant you know so yes, they have a huge
00:09:02.859 --> 00:09:03.559
So yes, they have a huge military edifice but it's
00:09:03.693 --> 00:09:06.095
Military edifice but it's cracking.
00:09:06.229 --> 00:09:06.462
Cracking. i mean the good news this
00:09:06.596 --> 00:09:09.899
I mean the good news this morning, gordon, is that we're
00:09:10.033 --> 00:09:10.633
Morning, gordon, is that we're seeing cracks in their chain of
00:09:10.767 --> 00:09:11.401
Seeing cracks in their chain of command.
00:09:11.534 --> 00:09:13.536
Command. what we took off the head of
00:09:13.670 --> 00:09:14.470
What we took off the head of the snake that initial strike
00:09:14.604 --> 00:09:15.204
The snake that initial strike and to pound as we're talking.
00:09:15.338 --> 00:09:17.940
And to pound as we're talking. idf jets are pounding the
00:09:18.074 --> 00:09:21.344
Idf jets are pounding the command centers of the irgc of
00:09:21.477 --> 00:09:22.211
Command centers of the irgc of the internal security
00:09:22.345 --> 00:09:25.214
The internal security apparatus.
00:09:25.348 --> 00:09:25.581
Apparatus. i mean they have some 30
00:09:25.715 --> 00:09:27.617
I mean they have some 30 organizations that are
00:09:27.750 --> 00:09:28.217
Organizations that are dedicated to this tyranny over
00:09:28.351 --> 00:09:31.521
Dedicated to this tyranny over the heads of the iranians.
00:09:31.654 --> 00:09:32.188
The heads of the iranians. but once widen into why enter
00:09:32.321 --> 00:09:35.925
But once widen into why enter chasms the opposition to
00:09:36.059 --> 00:09:39.195
Chasms the opposition to coalesce unify and hopefully
00:09:39.328 --> 00:09:42.999
Coalesce unify and hopefully begin to take over the streets?
00:09:43.132 --> 00:09:43.800
Begin to take over the streets? we see it happening and you
00:09:43.933 --> 00:09:46.569
We see it happening and you know, some indicators are for
00:09:46.703 --> 00:09:47.303
Know, some indicators are for example, they have not
00:09:47.437 --> 00:09:50.673
Example, they have not appointed a successor yet,
00:09:50.807 --> 00:09:51.340
Appointed a successor yet, number one.
00:09:51.474 --> 00:09:51.741
Number one. haven't very i mean they're in
00:09:53.910 --> 00:09:54.911
Haven't very i mean they're in complete disarray and the wild
00:09:55.044 --> 00:09:57.547
Complete disarray and the wild fire of missiles around the
00:09:57.680 --> 00:09:58.281
Fire of missiles around the entire into their neighbors
00:09:58.414 --> 00:10:01.918
Entire into their neighbors into to to the gulf that have
00:10:02.051 --> 00:10:05.555
Into to to the gulf that have become our real allies in this
00:10:05.688 --> 00:10:06.322
Become our real allies in this battle against iran of missiles
00:10:06.456 --> 00:10:09.192
Battle against iran of missiles into azerbaijan, of 10 million
00:10:09.325 --> 00:10:12.128
Into azerbaijan, of 10 million shiite muslims into turkey into
00:10:12.261 --> 00:10:15.565
Shiite muslims into turkey into ,europe attacking cyprus.
00:10:15.698 --> 00:10:16.199
,europe attacking cyprus. this is an indication
00:10:16.332 --> 00:10:19.769
This is an indication beginnings of desperation.
00:10:19.902 --> 00:10:23.840
Beginnings of desperation. >> so that's actually a good
00:10:23.973 --> 00:10:24.607
>> so that's actually a good sign.
00:10:24.741 --> 00:10:24.907
Sign. well, some people are calling a
00:10:25.041 --> 00:10:27.276
Well, some people are calling a widening of the war.
00:10:27.410 --> 00:10:27.844
Widening of the war. are these other countries i
00:10:27.977 --> 00:10:31.280
Are these other countries i agree it's indiscriminate.
00:10:31.414 --> 00:10:31.948
Agree it's indiscriminate. >> it doesn't seem to be any
00:10:32.081 --> 00:10:34.684
>> it doesn't seem to be any any real command and control.
00:10:34.817 --> 00:10:35.451
Any real command and control. >> it seems like each one of
00:10:35.585 --> 00:10:36.185
>> it seems like each one of the missile batteries gets to
00:10:36.319 --> 00:10:36.919
The missile batteries gets to pick their target.
00:10:37.053 --> 00:10:38.988
Pick their target. but is there a danger of this
00:10:39.122 --> 00:10:40.022
But is there a danger of this becoming wider war and if there
00:10:40.156 --> 00:10:42.792
Becoming wider war and if there if if the other gulf states
00:10:42.925 --> 00:10:45.962
If if the other gulf states into this action, what does
00:10:46.095 --> 00:10:46.696
Into this action, what does that mean?
00:10:46.829 --> 00:10:47.063
That mean? >> gordon if you take a look it
00:10:47.196 --> 00:10:50.633
>> gordon if you take a look it up a candle flame sometimes
00:10:50.767 --> 00:10:53.369
Up a candle flame sometimes before the flame goes out it
00:10:53.503 --> 00:10:54.070
Before the flame goes out it kind of shoots up a bit.
00:10:54.203 --> 00:10:57.406
Kind of shoots up a bit. yeah.
00:10:57.540 --> 00:10:57.707
Yeah. they're trying every last ditch
00:10:57.840 --> 00:10:58.474
They're trying every last ditch effort to stay alive.
00:10:58.608 --> 00:10:59.075
Effort to stay alive. they no way of staying alive
00:10:59.208 --> 00:11:01.811
They no way of staying alive without shooting off missiles
00:11:01.944 --> 00:11:02.545
Without shooting off missiles because that's thing they
00:11:02.678 --> 00:11:05.248
Because that's thing they really have.
00:11:05.381 --> 00:11:05.648
Really have. they've deprived their people
00:11:05.782 --> 00:11:06.382
They've deprived their people of water, food, of electricity,
00:11:06.516 --> 00:11:09.819
Of water, food, of electricity, of freedom and what they have
00:11:09.952 --> 00:11:12.688
Of freedom and what they have really is only kinetic power.
00:11:12.822 --> 00:11:13.422
Really is only kinetic power. so whatever whatever they have,
00:11:13.556 --> 00:11:16.993
So whatever whatever they have, they're shooting.
00:11:17.126 --> 00:11:17.493
They're shooting. it's something we have to deal
00:11:17.627 --> 00:11:18.261
It's something we have to deal with for days, perhaps a few
00:11:18.394 --> 00:11:21.130
With for days, perhaps a few weeks.
00:11:21.264 --> 00:11:21.430
Weeks. but this is going to end and
00:11:21.564 --> 00:11:22.165
But this is going to end and it's going to end against this
00:11:22.298 --> 00:11:23.866
It's going to end against this tyrannical really lunatic
00:11:24.000 --> 00:11:27.737
Tyrannical really lunatic regime.
00:11:27.870 --> 00:11:28.070
Regime. >> let's talk about the power
00:11:28.204 --> 00:11:28.805
>> let's talk about the power vacuum that's being created
00:11:28.938 --> 00:11:31.607
Vacuum that's being created right before our eyes and you
00:11:31.741 --> 00:11:35.044
Right before our eyes and you know, this was of concern back
00:11:35.178 --> 00:11:35.812
Know, this was of concern back in i mean it's a it's a quarter
00:11:35.945 --> 00:11:38.681
In i mean it's a it's a quarter century now the gulf war and
00:11:38.815 --> 00:11:39.415
Century now the gulf war and taking out the leadership in
00:11:39.549 --> 00:11:42.151
Taking out the leadership in iraq.
00:11:42.285 --> 00:11:42.451
Iraq. and you know what what happened
00:11:42.585 --> 00:11:45.755
And you know what what happened aftermath it seemed like iran
00:11:45.888 --> 00:11:46.522
Aftermath it seemed like iran had a direct line into into
00:11:46.656 --> 00:11:49.258
Had a direct line into into lebanon in the power vacuum
00:11:49.392 --> 00:11:49.959
Lebanon in the power vacuum being created.
00:11:50.092 --> 00:11:53.362
Being created. does it mean that turkey is now
00:11:53.496 --> 00:11:54.230
Does it mean that turkey is now going to have increased control
00:11:54.363 --> 00:11:56.666
Going to have increased control syria and lebanon and that has
00:11:56.799 --> 00:11:57.433
Syria and lebanon and that has to be of to israel?
00:11:57.567 --> 00:12:03.940
To be of to israel? certainly the rhetoric coming
00:12:04.073 --> 00:12:04.674
Certainly the rhetoric coming out of one in turkey is is of
00:12:04.807 --> 00:12:07.844
Out of one in turkey is is of concern to us.
00:12:07.977 --> 00:12:10.913
Concern to us. remember, turkey has been the
00:12:11.047 --> 00:12:11.647
Remember, turkey has been the recipient as well well of this
00:12:11.781 --> 00:12:14.817
Recipient as well well of this extremism.
00:12:14.951 --> 00:12:15.184
Extremism. they were hit with missiles as
00:12:15.318 --> 00:12:15.952
They were hit with missiles as well.
00:12:16.085 --> 00:12:16.252
Well. so i think there's a lesson to
00:12:16.385 --> 00:12:18.788
So i think there's a lesson to be learned throughout the
00:12:18.921 --> 00:12:19.422
Be learned throughout the middle east that this kind of
00:12:19.555 --> 00:12:20.189
Middle east that this kind of fundamentalist extremist
00:12:20.323 --> 00:12:22.825
Fundamentalist extremist islamism which wants everyone
00:12:22.959 --> 00:12:23.526
Islamism which wants everyone under the boot of a particular
00:12:23.659 --> 00:12:26.095
Under the boot of a particular brand of islam is is being
00:12:26.229 --> 00:12:26.963
Brand of islam is is being defeated.
00:12:27.096 --> 00:12:27.330
Defeated. you're absolutely right that
00:12:27.463 --> 00:12:31.033
You're absolutely right that you know, they had control for
00:12:31.167 --> 00:12:34.203
You know, they had control for part over lebanon, for example,
00:12:34.337 --> 00:12:34.971
Part over lebanon, for example, through the hezbollah.
00:12:35.104 --> 00:12:38.307
Through the hezbollah. hezbollah has chosen to join
00:12:38.441 --> 00:12:39.041
Hezbollah has chosen to join this war.
00:12:39.175 --> 00:12:39.408
This war. unfortunately we've made clear
00:12:39.542 --> 00:12:42.745
Unfortunately we've made clear messages.
00:12:42.879 --> 00:12:43.112
Messages. we've send clear messages that
00:12:43.246 --> 00:12:46.315
We've send clear messages that they have to begin to do
00:12:46.449 --> 00:12:47.049
They have to begin to do everything really possible to
00:12:47.183 --> 00:12:50.419
Everything really possible to curb hezbollah.
00:12:50.553 --> 00:12:50.887
Curb hezbollah. .
00:12:53.623 --> 00:12:53.856
. we're not going to tolerate it.
00:12:53.990 --> 00:12:54.657
We're not going to tolerate it. we don't want to destroy
00:12:54.790 --> 00:12:55.291
We don't want to destroy lebanon, but we're not going to
00:12:55.424 --> 00:12:56.025
Lebanon, but we're not going to tolerate missiles raining down
00:12:56.158 --> 00:12:58.060
Tolerate missiles raining down on our heads from hezbollah.
00:12:58.194 --> 00:12:58.761
On our heads from hezbollah. have intentions of sending
00:13:01.063 --> 00:13:01.731
Have intentions of sending their their red wine is kind of
00:13:01.864 --> 00:13:05.234
Their their red wine is kind of their you know and those who
00:13:05.368 --> 00:13:08.905
Their you know and those who have been trained actually in
00:13:09.038 --> 00:13:09.639
Have been trained actually in iran to our border to try to
00:13:09.772 --> 00:13:10.406
Iran to our border to try to penetrate hamas did on october
00:13:10.539 --> 00:13:12.808
Penetrate hamas did on october 7th.
00:13:12.942 --> 00:13:13.075
7th. we're not going to let that
00:13:13.209 --> 00:13:13.776
We're not going to let that happen.
00:13:13.910 --> 00:13:14.110
Happen. so a lot of pressure on the
00:13:14.243 --> 00:13:16.913
So a lot of pressure on the government to to come to terms
00:13:17.046 --> 00:13:20.182
Government to to come to terms with the fact that they have to
00:13:20.316 --> 00:13:20.983
With the fact that they have to take on hezbollah not in words
00:13:21.117 --> 00:13:23.519
Take on hezbollah not in words but actually in action.
00:13:23.653 --> 00:13:24.153
But actually in action. so they've begun this morning
00:13:24.287 --> 00:13:27.890
So they've begun this morning they've revoked visas for irgc
00:13:28.024 --> 00:13:28.624
They've revoked visas for irgc members sitting in beirut.
00:13:28.758 --> 00:13:31.727
Members sitting in beirut. they need to close down that
00:13:31.861 --> 00:13:32.461
They need to close down that embassy, the iranian embassy is
00:13:32.595 --> 00:13:35.231
Embassy, the iranian embassy is used as a command center for
00:13:35.364 --> 00:13:35.965
Used as a command center for terrorist activity in lebanon
00:13:36.098 --> 00:13:38.935
Terrorist activity in lebanon and they need to throw out the
00:13:39.068 --> 00:13:39.769
And they need to throw out the irgc members.
00:13:39.902 --> 00:13:42.405
Irgc members. well, is it possible for them
00:13:42.538 --> 00:13:43.272
Well, is it possible for them to to for the lebanese
00:13:43.406 --> 00:13:46.609
To to for the lebanese government to reform it seems
00:13:46.742 --> 00:13:50.313
Government to reform it seems that hezbollah is just so in
00:13:50.446 --> 00:13:54.283
That hezbollah is just so in their thought process and their
00:13:54.417 --> 00:13:55.117
Their thought process and their decision in their membership?
00:13:55.251 --> 00:13:58.054
Decision in their membership? i'm old enough to remember my
00:13:58.187 --> 00:14:01.958
I'm old enough to remember my very first trip to lebanon.
00:14:02.091 --> 00:14:02.658
Very first trip to lebanon. it was all the way back in
00:14:02.792 --> 00:14:04.560
It was all the way back in 1969.
00:14:04.694 --> 00:14:04.860
1969. so i'm kind of an old guy over
00:14:04.994 --> 00:14:07.563
So i'm kind of an old guy over and it was the jewel of the
00:14:07.697 --> 00:14:08.497
And it was the jewel of the mediterranean.
00:14:08.631 --> 00:14:08.931
Mediterranean. >> it was the example of how a
00:14:09.065 --> 00:14:12.234
>> it was the example of how a state can exist where jews and
00:14:12.368 --> 00:14:15.905
State can exist where jews and christians and muslims and
00:14:16.038 --> 00:14:16.539
Christians and muslims and druze and and and none of the
00:14:16.672 --> 00:14:19.809
Druze and and and none of the above can all come together and
00:14:19.942 --> 00:14:20.643
Above can all come together and have a very prosperous and
00:14:20.776 --> 00:14:23.813
Have a very prosperous and wonderful place live.
00:14:23.946 --> 00:14:26.849
Wonderful place live. can we see that come to be
00:14:26.983 --> 00:14:28.017
Can we see that come to be again or can we absolutely
00:14:28.150 --> 00:14:31.253
Again or can we absolutely can't see it come it come to
00:14:31.387 --> 00:14:34.557
Can't see it come it come to fruition?
00:14:34.690 --> 00:14:34.924
Fruition? you know, you look all over the
00:14:35.057 --> 00:14:35.691
You know, you look all over the world in different areas of the
00:14:35.825 --> 00:14:38.094
World in different areas of the globe and you've got jews and
00:14:38.227 --> 00:14:42.465
Globe and you've got jews and lebanese christians and druze
00:14:42.598 --> 00:14:45.801
Lebanese christians and druze and east in business together
00:14:45.935 --> 00:14:49.672
And east in business together and actually creating a
00:14:49.805 --> 00:14:50.306
And actually creating a beautiful future for their
00:14:50.439 --> 00:14:53.442
Beautiful future for their communities, their families.
00:14:53.576 --> 00:14:54.110
Communities, their families. there's no reason why that
00:14:54.243 --> 00:14:54.810
There's no reason why that can't be the same between our
00:14:54.944 --> 00:14:57.380
Can't be the same between our two countries.
00:14:57.513 --> 00:14:57.847
Two countries. the vast majority of lebanese.
00:14:57.980 --> 00:15:01.384
The vast majority of lebanese. i have extensive relationships
00:15:01.517 --> 00:15:04.653
I have extensive relationships throughout lebanon both here in
00:15:04.787 --> 00:15:05.421
Throughout lebanon both here in washington as well and and they
00:15:05.554 --> 00:15:08.557
Washington as well and and they pine for peace.
00:15:08.691 --> 00:15:09.025
Pine for peace. they pray for peace.
00:15:09.158 --> 00:15:09.592
They pray for peace. there's nothing they have with
00:15:09.725 --> 00:15:12.695
There's nothing they have with israel.
00:15:12.828 --> 00:15:13.029
Israel. no issues really.
00:15:13.162 --> 00:15:13.529
No issues really. there are some borders details
00:15:13.662 --> 00:15:16.332
There are some borders details that we can work out probably
00:15:16.465 --> 00:15:17.133
That we can work out probably in a few hours.
00:15:17.266 --> 00:15:20.002
In a few hours. but it's hezbollah that has
00:15:20.136 --> 00:15:20.703
But it's hezbollah that has taken over this country that's
00:15:20.836 --> 00:15:21.470
Taken over this country that's raped this country as
00:15:21.604 --> 00:15:23.439
Raped this country as emissaries of iran.
00:15:23.572 --> 00:15:23.973
Emissaries of iran. once iran is defeated, this
00:15:24.106 --> 00:15:27.576
Once iran is defeated, this government i should say of iran
00:15:27.710 --> 00:15:28.344
Government i should say of iran is defeated, hezbollah will not
00:15:28.477 --> 00:15:31.280
Is defeated, hezbollah will not daddy will not have the funds
00:15:31.414 --> 00:15:32.048
Daddy will not have the funds to the tune of $1,000,000,000
00:15:32.181 --> 00:15:34.116
To the tune of $1,000,000,000 that they receive every year
00:15:34.250 --> 00:15:34.817
That they receive every year from iran and.
00:15:34.950 --> 00:15:37.987
From iran and. they're going to they're going
00:15:38.120 --> 00:15:38.721
They're going to they're going to fold shop.
00:15:38.854 --> 00:15:39.155
To fold shop. and until that happens, we're
00:15:39.288 --> 00:15:39.889
And until that happens, we're going to be very vigilant our
00:15:40.022 --> 00:15:41.957
Going to be very vigilant our people are very resilient.
00:15:42.091 --> 00:15:42.625
People are very resilient. we're not leaving north this
00:15:42.758 --> 00:15:45.561
We're not leaving north this time.
00:15:45.694 --> 00:15:45.861
Time. our families are are hunkered
00:15:45.995 --> 00:15:46.595
Our families are are hunkered down.
00:15:46.729 --> 00:15:46.896
Down. they're going to stay there
00:15:47.029 --> 00:15:48.798
They're going to stay there there and hezbollah is going to
00:15:48.931 --> 00:15:49.565
There and hezbollah is going to be beaten back by the idf this
00:15:49.698 --> 00:15:51.000
Be beaten back by the idf this this time permanently.
00:15:51.133 --> 00:15:55.671
This time permanently. how does israel win the peace
00:15:55.805 --> 00:15:56.439
How does israel win the peace here?
00:15:56.572 --> 00:15:56.739
Here? this seems to be a recurring
00:15:56.872 --> 00:15:58.974
This seems to be a recurring theme that you get and terror
00:15:59.108 --> 00:16:02.978
Theme that you get and terror attacks again and again, again
00:16:03.112 --> 00:16:06.949
Attacks again and again, again and again and going all the way
00:16:07.083 --> 00:16:07.883
And again and going all the way back 48 and it never seems you
00:16:08.017 --> 00:16:09.852
Back 48 and it never seems you can win every battle but then
00:16:09.985 --> 00:16:13.122
Can win every battle but then you never really win the the
00:16:13.255 --> 00:16:16.792
You never really win the the peace.
00:16:16.926 --> 00:16:17.093
Peace. what's the plan now?
00:16:17.226 --> 00:16:17.660
What's the plan now? it with this ideological change
00:16:17.793 --> 00:16:21.263
It with this ideological change assuming it happens in iran,
00:16:21.397 --> 00:16:24.834
Assuming it happens in iran, islamic death cult is finally.
00:16:24.967 --> 00:16:28.771
Islamic death cult is finally. how does the peace spread
00:16:28.904 --> 00:16:32.441
How does the peace spread throughout the middle east?
00:16:32.575 --> 00:16:33.109
Throughout the middle east? >> well when you a bird's eye
00:16:33.242 --> 00:16:36.579
>> well when you a bird's eye view and kind of leave the
00:16:36.712 --> 00:16:37.346
View and kind of leave the moment you dramatic change
00:16:37.480 --> 00:16:40.082
Moment you dramatic change taking place.
00:16:40.216 --> 00:16:40.516
Taking place. >> i mean look at look at their
00:16:40.649 --> 00:16:43.886
>> i mean look at look at their lives as you said between
00:16:44.019 --> 00:16:44.553
Lives as you said between israel and the emirates, for
00:16:44.687 --> 00:16:45.221
Israel and the emirates, for example.
00:16:45.354 --> 00:16:45.554
Example. it is probably closer than
00:16:47.123 --> 00:16:47.990
It is probably closer than israel has relationships with
00:16:48.124 --> 00:16:50.860
Israel has relationships with countries today.
00:16:50.993 --> 00:16:51.360
Countries today. the same thing with bahrain,
00:16:51.494 --> 00:16:52.094
The same thing with bahrain, the same.
00:16:52.228 --> 00:16:54.864
The same. unfortunately sudan is mired in
00:16:54.997 --> 00:16:55.831
Unfortunately sudan is mired in civil civil war but the abraham
00:16:55.965 --> 00:16:59.001
Civil civil war but the abraham accords in 2020 thrust us into
00:16:59.135 --> 00:16:59.835
Accords in 2020 thrust us into entire new age and potential
00:16:59.969 --> 00:17:02.838
Entire new age and potential and now we can potentially see
00:17:02.972 --> 00:17:03.639
And now we can potentially see the other arab states in the in
00:17:03.772 --> 00:17:06.942
The other arab states in the in the gulf coming to the fore and
00:17:07.076 --> 00:17:10.646
The gulf coming to the fore and choosing moderation,
00:17:10.779 --> 00:17:11.180
Choosing moderation, accommodation and reform over
00:17:11.313 --> 00:17:14.183
Accommodation and reform over fanaticism that iran represents
00:17:14.316 --> 00:17:14.950
Fanaticism that iran represents and exported.
00:17:15.084 --> 00:17:15.384
And exported. i think that we can move into a
00:17:18.020 --> 00:17:19.155
I think that we can move into a new era of abraham accords 2.0.
00:17:19.288 --> 00:17:21.957
New era of abraham accords 2.0. when this war is over and you
00:17:22.091 --> 00:17:25.995
When this war is over and you know, it's really important for
00:17:26.128 --> 00:17:26.762
Know, it's really important for the american people to
00:17:26.896 --> 00:17:27.396
The american people to understand that the potential
00:17:27.530 --> 00:17:30.099
Understand that the potential here for regional cooperation
00:17:30.232 --> 00:17:33.602
Here for regional cooperation and peace throughout the middle
00:17:33.736 --> 00:17:34.370
And peace throughout the middle east gives the united states an
00:17:34.503 --> 00:17:35.137
East gives the united states an opportunity to move its assets,
00:17:35.271 --> 00:17:38.073
Opportunity to move its assets, its footprint, military
00:17:38.207 --> 00:17:41.510
Its footprint, military footprint in the middle east to
00:17:41.644 --> 00:17:42.311
Footprint in the middle east to the far east where more to
00:17:42.444 --> 00:17:45.614
The far east where more to ensure that china doesn't
00:17:45.748 --> 00:17:46.248
Ensure that china doesn't become a regional and threaten
00:17:46.382 --> 00:17:49.685
Become a regional and threaten the united states.
00:17:49.818 --> 00:17:50.219
The united states. so this has a link to a much,
00:17:50.352 --> 00:17:53.222
So this has a link to a much, much bigger picture and the
00:17:53.355 --> 00:17:53.889
Much bigger picture and the bigger picture sees regional
00:17:54.023 --> 00:17:56.125
Bigger picture sees regional cooperation between israel and
00:17:56.258 --> 00:17:56.859
Cooperation between israel and the gulf states a peace in the
00:17:56.992 --> 00:18:00.429
The gulf states a peace in the region, stability and, a free
00:18:00.563 --> 00:18:04.099
Region, stability and, a free flow of of of oil gas which is
00:18:04.233 --> 00:18:05.167
Flow of of of oil gas which is necessary for the entire
00:18:05.301 --> 00:18:08.037
Necessary for the entire world's economy.
00:18:08.170 --> 00:18:08.537
World's economy. and i think there's a lot of
00:18:08.671 --> 00:18:11.440
And i think there's a lot of promise we just have to pick
00:18:11.574 --> 00:18:12.208
Promise we just have to pick our heads up above the turrets
00:18:12.341 --> 00:18:12.942
Our heads up above the turrets right now because war is
00:18:13.075 --> 00:18:15.477
Right now because war is difficult.
00:18:15.611 --> 00:18:15.844
Difficult. you know, gordon, i know
00:18:15.978 --> 00:18:16.478
You know, gordon, i know personally war is i lost my
00:18:16.612 --> 00:18:20.115
Personally war is i lost my oldest son in battle in gaza
00:18:20.249 --> 00:18:22.885
Oldest son in battle in gaza wants to see war.
00:18:23.018 --> 00:18:23.419
Wants to see war. nobody wants to see families
00:18:23.552 --> 00:18:24.119
Nobody wants to see families get that knock on the door.
00:18:24.253 --> 00:18:26.855
Get that knock on the door. but there are things we have to
00:18:26.989 --> 00:18:27.723
But there are things we have to do for the future of humanity
00:18:27.856 --> 00:18:28.457
Do for the future of humanity and this.
00:18:28.591 --> 00:18:30.926
And this. this really is a battle for the
00:18:31.060 --> 00:18:31.794
This really is a battle for the future of humanity because if
00:18:31.927 --> 00:18:32.528
Future of humanity because if we don't stop these these
00:18:32.661 --> 00:18:34.263
We don't stop these these lunatics in tehran that are
00:18:34.396 --> 00:18:34.964
Lunatics in tehran that are shooting ballistic into their
00:18:35.097 --> 00:18:38.467
Shooting ballistic into their neighbors as if there are no
00:18:38.601 --> 00:18:39.235
Neighbors as if there are no flying kites tomorrow they're
00:18:39.368 --> 00:18:42.471
Flying kites tomorrow they're going to outfit these ballistic
00:18:42.605 --> 00:18:46.141
Going to outfit these ballistic with nuclear warheads and
00:18:46.275 --> 00:18:46.775
With nuclear warheads and imagine all of these missiles
00:18:46.909 --> 00:18:47.509
Imagine all of these missiles that they fired cyprus into
00:18:47.643 --> 00:18:50.579
That they fired cyprus into turkey, into the emirates, into
00:18:50.713 --> 00:18:51.347
Turkey, into the emirates, into bahrain, into saudi into israel
00:18:51.480 --> 00:18:54.617
Bahrain, into saudi into israel will be outfitted with nuclear
00:18:54.750 --> 00:18:55.351
Will be outfitted with nuclear warheads.
00:18:55.484 --> 00:18:55.718
Warheads. this planning to do this is
00:18:55.851 --> 00:18:58.854
This planning to do this is what they plan to do.
00:18:58.988 --> 00:18:59.455
What they plan to do. if we didn't hit them in
00:18:59.588 --> 00:19:01.957
If we didn't hit them in several months they would be in
00:19:02.091 --> 00:19:02.758
Several months they would be in an underground facility pairing
00:19:02.891 --> 00:19:05.527
An underground facility pairing enriched uranium with the
00:19:05.661 --> 00:19:09.498
Enriched uranium with the ability to deliver it on
00:19:09.632 --> 00:19:10.165
Ability to deliver it on warheads.
00:19:10.299 --> 00:19:10.532
Warheads. i mean why do you build a
00:19:10.666 --> 00:19:13.369
I mean why do you build a facility so deep underground
00:19:13.502 --> 00:19:14.069
Facility so deep underground that even, even b-2?
00:19:14.203 --> 00:19:17.573
That even, even b-2? this can't get to it.
00:19:17.706 --> 00:19:18.207
This can't get to it. that was the direction they
00:19:18.340 --> 00:19:19.074
That was the direction they took after rising lion at
00:19:19.208 --> 00:19:20.809
Took after rising lion at midnight hammer in june and the
00:19:20.943 --> 00:19:21.677
Midnight hammer in june and the president of the united states
00:19:21.810 --> 00:19:25.080
President of the united states warned them they said after
00:19:25.214 --> 00:19:25.781
Warned them they said after that operation after midnight
00:19:25.914 --> 00:19:26.482
That operation after midnight hammer pursue nuclear weapons.
00:19:26.615 --> 00:19:28.117
Hammer pursue nuclear weapons. and what they did was just the
00:19:28.250 --> 00:19:29.118
And what they did was just the reverse they pursued nuclear
00:19:29.251 --> 00:19:32.821
Reverse they pursued nuclear weapons to the point where even
00:19:32.955 --> 00:19:33.589
Weapons to the point where even b-2s would to attack and that's
00:19:33.722 --> 00:19:36.925
B-2s would to attack and that's why this was so important to
00:19:37.059 --> 00:19:37.660
Why this was so important to do.
00:19:37.793 --> 00:19:37.926
Do. now that's imminent and thank
00:19:38.060 --> 00:19:40.129
Now that's imminent and thank god we have a leadership in the
00:19:40.262 --> 00:19:43.899
God we have a leadership in the united states which is the

Leader of the of the free world and the ensure of the free
00:19:47.469 --> 00:19:48.070
And the ensure of the free world.
00:19:48.203 --> 00:19:48.370
World. we're junior partners but we're
00:19:48.504 --> 00:19:51.040
We're junior partners but we're privileged to be partners with
00:19:51.173 --> 00:19:51.807
Privileged to be partners with the united states right now
00:19:51.940 --> 00:19:54.643
The united states right now now.
00:19:54.777 --> 00:19:54.910
Now. >> well, they opened the
00:19:55.044 --> 00:19:55.544
>> well, they opened the negotiations and supposedly the
00:19:55.678 --> 00:19:58.247
Negotiations and supposedly the peace negotiations was a
00:19:58.380 --> 00:19:58.881
Peace negotiations was a declaration of how enriched
00:19:59.014 --> 00:20:02.451
Declaration of how enriched uranium they had in any has any
00:20:02.584 --> 00:20:06.422
Uranium they had in any has any kind of physics background were
00:20:06.555 --> 00:20:10.392
Kind of physics background were a week away from developing 11
00:20:10.526 --> 00:20:11.193
A week away from developing 11 nuclear bombs that they had
00:20:11.327 --> 00:20:14.697
Nuclear bombs that they had enough material to do that and
00:20:14.830 --> 00:20:15.464
Enough material to do that and that's why the president said
00:20:15.597 --> 00:20:18.600
That's why the president said no you're not going to do that
00:20:18.734 --> 00:20:19.568
No you're not going to do that on watch.
00:20:19.702 --> 00:20:22.404
On watch. >> back to the 10,000 foot view
00:20:22.538 --> 00:20:25.274
>> back to the 10,000 foot view the longer view.
00:20:25.407 --> 00:20:25.774
The longer view. is there concern i'm concerned
00:20:25.908 --> 00:20:29.378
Is there concern i'm concerned that spain and france are not
00:20:29.511 --> 00:20:33.248
That spain and france are not joining in on this and it seems
00:20:33.382 --> 00:20:36.552
Joining in on this and it seems to be because they have a
00:20:36.685 --> 00:20:37.386
To be because they have a significant muslim population.
00:20:37.519 --> 00:20:40.422
Significant muslim population. i'm concerned that a potential
00:20:40.556 --> 00:20:41.256
I'm concerned that a potential candidate for the presidency of
00:20:41.390 --> 00:20:44.693
Candidate for the presidency of the united states is now israel
00:20:44.827 --> 00:20:48.297
The united states is now israel an apartheid state.
00:20:48.430 --> 00:20:48.831
An apartheid state. that seems to be of the
00:20:48.964 --> 00:20:52.301
That seems to be of the democrat primary process that
00:20:52.434 --> 00:20:55.671
Democrat primary process that that how how distant can you
00:20:55.804 --> 00:20:56.438
That how how distant can you get from israel in order to win
00:20:56.572 --> 00:20:59.675
Get from israel in order to win that primary?
00:20:59.808 --> 00:21:00.109
That primary? i'm hearing it also within
00:21:00.242 --> 00:21:03.312
I'm hearing it also within conservative circles in the
00:21:03.445 --> 00:21:04.012
Conservative circles in the united as as we win the battle
00:21:04.146 --> 00:21:10.619
United as as we win the battle militarily are we losing the
00:21:10.753 --> 00:21:11.453
Militarily are we losing the ideological battle at the same
00:21:11.587 --> 00:21:14.390
Ideological battle at the same time it's an ideological
00:21:14.523 --> 00:21:18.160
Time it's an ideological challenge.
00:21:18.293 --> 00:21:18.527
Challenge. i don't think we're losing the
00:21:18.660 --> 00:21:19.261
I don't think we're losing the battle battle.
00:21:19.395 --> 00:21:21.897
Battle battle. i think what we're hearing are
00:21:22.030 --> 00:21:22.731
I think what we're hearing are the voices of extremists on
00:21:22.865 --> 00:21:25.801
The voices of extremists on both sides.
00:21:25.934 --> 00:21:26.201
Both sides. i spend two days a week on the
00:21:26.335 --> 00:21:27.302
I spend two days a week on the hill.
00:21:27.436 --> 00:21:29.438
Hill. i divide my time between
00:21:29.571 --> 00:21:30.105
I divide my time between republicans and democrats and i
00:21:30.239 --> 00:21:30.839
Republicans and democrats and i can that the majority of the
00:21:30.973 --> 00:21:33.776
Can that the majority of the american people are rock solid
00:21:33.909 --> 00:21:34.510
American people are rock solid in this partnership with
00:21:34.643 --> 00:21:37.379
In this partnership with israel.
00:21:37.513 --> 00:21:37.713
Israel. they see our two armies the
00:21:37.846 --> 00:21:38.380
They see our two armies the most powerful air forces in the
00:21:38.514 --> 00:21:41.717
Most powerful air forces in the world.
00:21:41.850 --> 00:21:42.017
World. the most experienced, the most
00:21:42.151 --> 00:21:42.785
The most experienced, the most able.
00:21:42.918 --> 00:21:43.085
Able. flying side by shoulder to
00:21:43.218 --> 00:21:45.154
Flying side by shoulder to shoulder.
00:21:45.287 --> 00:21:45.521
Shoulder. but it's more like wing to
00:21:45.654 --> 00:21:46.255
But it's more like wing to wing.
00:21:46.388 --> 00:21:46.555
Wing. we both both heard the
00:21:46.688 --> 00:21:49.591
We both both heard the secretary of war said yesterday
00:21:49.725 --> 00:21:50.359
Secretary of war said yesterday and the chief of the joint
00:21:50.492 --> 00:21:52.494
And the chief of the joint chiefs of staff general can
00:21:52.628 --> 00:21:53.162
Chiefs of staff general can speak about the relationship
00:21:53.295 --> 00:21:56.398
Speak about the relationship between our two countries and
00:21:56.532 --> 00:21:57.099
Between our two countries and our two armies and that's the
00:21:57.232 --> 00:21:57.833
Our two armies and that's the way it should be this is the
00:21:57.966 --> 00:22:00.536
Way it should be this is the protectors we are the
00:22:00.669 --> 00:22:01.103
Protectors we are the protectors of judeo-christian
00:22:01.236 --> 00:22:04.239
Protectors of judeo-christian civilization and the fact that
00:22:04.373 --> 00:22:04.973
Civilization and the fact that there is a candidate who speaks
00:22:05.107 --> 00:22:08.143
There is a candidate who speaks with such ignorance and
00:22:08.277 --> 00:22:08.877
With such ignorance and arrogance of israel is
00:22:09.011 --> 00:22:12.114
Arrogance of israel is unfortunate.
00:22:12.247 --> 00:22:12.514
Unfortunate. but look, he he can repent and
00:22:12.648 --> 00:22:16.518
But look, he he can repent and take it back once he once once
00:22:16.652 --> 00:22:19.521
Take it back once he once once he learns a bit about the state
00:22:19.655 --> 00:22:20.322
He learns a bit about the state of israel.
00:22:20.456 --> 00:22:20.689
Of israel. you know that due to to to
00:22:20.823 --> 00:22:23.492
You know that due to to to infer that an apartheid state,
00:22:23.625 --> 00:22:24.259
Infer that an apartheid state, you know you know, we had a an
00:22:24.393 --> 00:22:27.329
You know you know, we had a an arab christian judge on the
00:22:27.463 --> 00:22:28.063
Arab christian judge on the supreme court who sent the
00:22:28.197 --> 00:22:31.333
Supreme court who sent the jewish president of the country
00:22:31.467 --> 00:22:32.067
Jewish president of the country to jail.
00:22:32.201 --> 00:22:32.401
To jail. that's not an apartheid state.
00:22:32.534 --> 00:22:34.636
That's not an apartheid state. then come to our universities
00:22:34.770 --> 00:22:35.437
Then come to our universities and and see muslim christians
00:22:35.571 --> 00:22:38.173

An and the first year he couldn't get it because to
00:22:46.048 --> 00:22:49.485
Couldn't get it because to assure that our muslim
00:22:49.618 --> 00:22:50.085
Assure that our muslim population would have a fair
00:22:50.219 --> 00:22:50.786
Population would have a fair share and and study medicine.
00:22:50.919 --> 00:22:53.155

State of israel calling us all sorts of names.
00:22:57.893 --> 00:22:58.260

Many years the slaughter of so many innocent africans and
00:23:12.808 --> 00:23:13.342
Many innocent africans and they're lecturing to us about
