Allen Jackson NOW | Allen Jackson: Houthi Threat | Allen Jackson Now | April 1, 2026

Good evening and welcome to nashville.
00:00:05.363 --> 00:00:07.299
I'm alan jackson.
00:00:07.299 --> 00:00:08.767
Whoever is left in iran's leadership
00:00:08.767 --> 00:00:10.769
Is trying to play hardball.
00:00:10.769 --> 00:00:12.571
But in the end, it's not going to work.
00:00:12.571 --> 00:00:14.306
They can't talk to each other
00:00:14.306 --> 00:00:15.640
Because communications have been shut down.
00:00:15.640 --> 00:00:17.709
So the various local military chiefs are stalling.
00:00:17.709 --> 00:00:21.079
They're sending out the occasional missile
00:00:21.079 --> 00:00:22.781
And drone and hoping they can outlast both the u.s.
00:00:22.781 --> 00:00:25.717
And israel.
00:00:25.717 --> 00:00:27.419
They're apparently hoping that eventually president trump
00:00:27.419 --> 00:00:29.955
Will give up and let them settle with whatever they have left.
00:00:29.955 --> 00:00:33.625
And they're digging in, stalling for time like donkeys do.
00:00:33.625 --> 00:00:37.329
And they don't want to move.
00:00:37.329 --> 00:00:38.964
But no amount of barking can stop the american b-2
00:00:38.964 --> 00:00:42.334
Stealth bomber. that's just a fact.
00:00:42.334 --> 00:00:45.170
Well, iran has made a lot of mistakes already,
00:00:45.170 --> 00:00:47.572
Including bombing their neighbors in the arab world.
00:00:47.572 --> 00:00:50.408
So now they've alienated everyone.
00:00:50.408 --> 00:00:52.878
Countries in the middle east are rooting for them to lose,
00:00:52.878 --> 00:00:55.547
And asking of the united states
00:00:55.547 --> 00:00:56.915
To keep up the fight until iran has nothing left.
00:00:56.915 --> 00:01:00.118
Here's how the secretary of state describes
00:01:00.118 --> 00:01:02.020
The current state of play.
00:01:02.020 --> 00:01:03.421
Iran was already weak.
00:01:03.421 --> 00:01:04.689
When we are done with them here for the next couple of weeks,
00:01:04.689 --> 00:01:06.625
That will be weaker
00:01:06.625 --> 00:01:07.492
Than they've been in recent history,
00:01:07.492 --> 00:01:08.994
And they will not be able to hide behind those weapons
00:01:08.994 --> 00:01:11.429
To break out and get a nuclear weapon, which would be crazy
00:01:11.429 --> 00:01:15.567
For these people to ever get nuclear weapons would be crazy.
00:01:15.567 --> 00:01:18.270
Look what they're willing to do with the weapons they have now.
00:01:18.270 --> 00:01:20.805
They hit embassies, they target hotels.
00:01:20.805 --> 00:01:23.108
They try to kill civilians.
00:01:23.108 --> 00:01:24.276
They lashed out at all their neighbors.
00:01:24.276 --> 00:01:25.844
Imagine if these radical lunatics
00:01:25.844 --> 00:01:27.779
Had a nuclear weapon to threaten the world with.
00:01:27.779 --> 00:01:30.215
Well, and here's the worst of it for iran.
00:01:31.082 --> 00:01:33.351
The qatari state media, al jazeera, has been praising
00:01:33.351 --> 00:01:37.189
The us military effort
00:01:37.189 --> 00:01:38.490
And saying that they believe the us is going to win.
00:01:38.490 --> 00:01:41.693
Remember, qatar
00:01:42.060 --> 00:01:43.295
Not only hosts the political offices for iran's proxy hamas,
00:01:43.295 --> 00:01:46.731
But they've always been critical
00:01:46.731 --> 00:01:47.999
Of any american military action in the past,
00:01:47.999 --> 00:01:51.269
Iran's regime has exported terror
00:01:51.269 --> 00:01:53.371
And instability in the region for decades.
00:01:53.371 --> 00:01:56.641
I'm grateful for the bold
00:01:56.641 --> 00:01:57.876
And courageous approach being taken
00:01:57.876 --> 00:01:59.344
By this administration in confronting evil.
00:01:59.344 --> 00:02:01.947
Author scott peck, in his book people of the lie, he wrote,
00:02:01.947 --> 00:02:05.217
Evil will only yield to a power greater than itself.
00:02:05.217 --> 00:02:08.220
You can't negotiate with evil. you can't bargain with evil.
00:02:08.220 --> 00:02:10.822
You can't reason with evil.
00:02:10.822 --> 00:02:12.657
That's why we call it evil.
00:02:12.657 --> 00:02:15.160
But in confronting evil, new possibilities are opening
00:02:15.160 --> 00:02:17.729
In a region of the world that seemed impenetrable for decades.
00:02:17.729 --> 00:02:21.666
A weakened iranian regime can mean hope
00:02:21.666 --> 00:02:23.835
For people who've lived under tyranny.
00:02:23.835 --> 00:02:26.438
I'm imagining the excitement
00:02:26.438 --> 00:02:27.906
Within the younger generations of iranians
00:02:27.906 --> 00:02:29.708
Who are giving themselves permission,
00:02:29.708 --> 00:02:31.443
For the first time, to believe that freedom is possible.
00:02:31.443 --> 00:02:34.713
God's doing some remarkable things.
00:02:35.480 --> 00:02:37.549
He's moving in a way that we don't have the time
00:02:37.549 --> 00:02:39.618
To keep up with at all.
00:02:39.618 --> 00:02:41.086
It's a remarkable to be a witness to.
00:02:41.086 --> 00:02:43.888
Well, easter season is upon us, and here in tennessee,
00:02:43.888 --> 00:02:46.992
We're inviting our neighbors to celebrate with us at church.
00:02:46.992 --> 00:02:49.894
We put up an outdoor stage.
00:02:49.894 --> 00:02:51.129
We have festivals,
00:02:51.129 --> 00:02:52.130
Concerts, food trucks, activities for families.
00:02:52.130 --> 00:02:55.033
One key component of the festivities
00:02:55.033 --> 00:02:57.068
Is we give people the opportunity to be baptized
00:02:57.068 --> 00:02:59.437
And to make a beautiful public declaration of their faith.
00:02:59.437 --> 00:03:03.241
I'm reminded of a man who was baptized a few days ago.
00:03:03.241 --> 00:03:05.744
He told the story of how
00:03:05.744 --> 00:03:06.745
He attended our festivals through the years,
00:03:06.745 --> 00:03:08.513
And how
00:03:08.513 --> 00:03:09.180
He openly lived a lifestyle
00:03:09.180 --> 00:03:10.148
That was contrary to biblical values.
00:03:10.148 --> 00:03:12.784
Yet he would sit in the chairs listening to a concert
00:03:12.784 --> 00:03:14.986
And watch people being baptized, saying to himself,
00:03:14.986 --> 00:03:18.256
I'll never be one of those people.
00:03:18.256 --> 00:03:19.991
That's foolish. i'll never get baptized.
00:03:19.991 --> 00:03:22.994
Well, god had another plan.
00:03:23.595 --> 00:03:24.896
The lord touched his life.
00:03:24.896 --> 00:03:26.464
And this year, that man was baptized here on our campus.
00:03:26.464 --> 00:03:29.901
He told the story.
00:03:29.901 --> 00:03:30.769
There were tears running down his face.
00:03:30.769 --> 00:03:32.370
He said, i've become one of those people.
00:03:32.370 --> 00:03:35.140
Well, i'm grateful that we live in a country
00:03:35.140 --> 00:03:36.808
Where we can have a very visible celebration of our risen lord,
00:03:36.808 --> 00:03:40.612
Where people can be baptized in the open in a public manner.
00:03:40.612 --> 00:03:44.549
This easter season, i want to remind you
00:03:44.549 --> 00:03:46.651
That it's a time for a courageous response.
00:03:46.651 --> 00:03:49.187
Let's lead with our faith wherever we go.
00:03:49.187 --> 00:03:51.423
Your courage could spark someone to turn to god.
00:03:51.423 --> 00:03:53.658
Experience a transformation that would change their life.
00:03:53.658 --> 00:03:56.928
Let's have the courage to say jesus is unique
00:03:56.928 --> 00:03:59.030
And that he brings something unique to every human life.
00:03:59.030 --> 00:04:02.367
You know, one year
00:04:02.367 --> 00:04:03.301
I was asked to be on a television program
00:04:03.301 --> 00:04:04.602
In the days that were leading up to easter.
00:04:04.602 --> 00:04:06.538
It wasn't a christian station or program,
00:04:06.538 --> 00:04:08.306
But i was glad to participate and talk about easter.
00:04:08.306 --> 00:04:10.975
When the production team called, they said,
00:04:10.975 --> 00:04:12.977
We want to do a short segment on easter, just 3 or 4 minutes.
00:04:12.977 --> 00:04:15.947
I said, i'm all right with that.
00:04:15.947 --> 00:04:17.549
And they said, no, this isn't a religious program.
00:04:17.549 --> 00:04:19.818
And i said, yes,
00:04:19.818 --> 00:04:20.885
I know that, but easter is about jesus of nazareth.
00:04:20.885 --> 00:04:23.421
He died on a roman cross and god raised him to life again.
00:04:23.421 --> 00:04:26.358
That's the easter story.
00:04:26.358 --> 00:04:27.759
That's why we celebrate.
00:04:27.759 --> 00:04:29.594
And they said,
00:04:29.594 --> 00:04:30.195
Well, we'll have to talk
00:04:30.195 --> 00:04:31.196
To the program manager and we'll call you back.
00:04:31.196 --> 00:04:33.832
Not surprisingly, i never heard from them again.
00:04:33.832 --> 00:04:36.868
Now, i'm not opposed to the secular
00:04:36.868 --> 00:04:38.303
Things that are part of easter bunnies and egg hunts and candy.
00:04:38.303 --> 00:04:41.406
They just give me an open to talk more about my best friend.
00:04:41.406 --> 00:04:44.342
His name is jesus.
00:04:44.342 --> 00:04:46.044
But the real story is he's not here.
00:04:46.044 --> 00:04:48.279
He has risen.
00:04:48.279 --> 00:04:49.514
That is the wonderful truth about easter
00:04:49.514 --> 00:04:51.549
That our friends and neighbors desperately need to know.
00:04:51.549 --> 00:04:54.386
Jesus is alive.
00:04:54.386 --> 00:04:56.087
He's more alive today than when he was teaching,
00:04:56.087 --> 00:04:58.356
Feeding the multitudes, or giving new life
00:04:58.356 --> 00:05:00.158
To people who had no hope.
00:05:00.158 --> 00:05:01.993
He's even more alive today than when he walked out
00:05:01.993 --> 00:05:04.262
Of the tomb on easter morning,
00:05:04.262 --> 00:05:05.964
Because he's been glorified by his father.
00:05:05.964 --> 00:05:08.733
As christians, we can rejoice at the same spirit
00:05:08.733 --> 00:05:11.469
That brought jesus out of the tomb is alive within us today.
00:05:11.469 --> 00:05:15.340
Let's keep that so fresh in our minds,
00:05:15.340 --> 00:05:17.409
So that we'll never hesitate to stand up, to speak up,
00:05:17.409 --> 00:05:20.311
To claim him
00:05:20.311 --> 00:05:21.546
As our lord and king and tell someone that jesus loves them.
00:05:21.546 --> 00:05:24.382
You know our faith must be lived
00:05:25.016 --> 00:05:26.518
In the midst of current events.
00:05:26.518 --> 00:05:27.886
It can't just hide in our churches as a theory.
00:05:27.886 --> 00:05:30.822
It's got to be understood against the context
00:05:30.822 --> 00:05:32.857
Of what's unfolding in our world.
00:05:32.857 --> 00:05:35.560
You know, by all accounts, iran will be weakened
00:05:35.560 --> 00:05:37.629
To the point of no return within the next several weeks
00:05:37.629 --> 00:05:40.565
To set more detail on the state of play.
00:05:40.565 --> 00:05:42.667
We're going to be joined by our military
00:05:42.667 --> 00:05:44.402
And strategic analyst, chuck nash in just a moment.
00:05:44.402 --> 00:05:47.672
I'll be right back.
00:05:48.139 --> 00:05:57.006
I'll be right back.
00:05:57.006 --> 00:06:02.087
As we introduce our guest today.
00:06:02.721 --> 00:06:04.990
I want to show the
00:06:04.990 --> 00:06:06.258
Glorious scene from baseballs opening night in san francisco.
00:06:06.258 --> 00:06:09.862
That's 1000 drones flying over oracle park
00:06:09.862 --> 00:06:12.832
While the national anthem was playing.
00:06:12.832 --> 00:06:14.967
You know, america has always been
00:06:14.967 --> 00:06:16.235
The place where people from all over the world
00:06:16.235 --> 00:06:18.170
Come for freedom and opportunity.
00:06:18.170 --> 00:06:20.439
And that's exactly what president trump
00:06:20.439 --> 00:06:22.274
Would like to see for the tens of millions of iranian people,
00:06:22.274 --> 00:06:25.444
As he presses on to keep us all safe.
00:06:25.444 --> 00:06:28.380
With that, i want to welcome our good
00:06:28.380 --> 00:06:30.015
Friend and military analyst, chuck nash.
00:06:30.015 --> 00:06:32.818
Welcome back, captain.
00:06:32.818 --> 00:06:34.553
Pleasure to be with you, pastor.
00:06:35.187 --> 00:06:37.423
First question.
00:06:37.423 --> 00:06:38.591
The clean up of iran is well past the halfway point.
00:06:38.591 --> 00:06:41.293
By now, the hoodies in yemen have resurfaced.
00:06:41.293 --> 00:06:45.064
Israel's already pounded hezbollah in lebanon, and hamas
00:06:45.064 --> 00:06:48.133
Is largely under control.
00:06:48.133 --> 00:06:49.802
But are the houthi as much of a threat to our military?
00:06:49.802 --> 00:06:53.439
Well, they, they actually control
00:06:54.206 --> 00:06:56.208
A very vital choke point,
00:06:56.208 --> 00:06:57.977
Coming out of the red sea and into the indian ocean.
00:06:57.977 --> 00:07:02.047
So they can wreak havoc there because they have surface
00:07:02.047 --> 00:07:05.017
To surface missiles, and it's a very narrow stretch of ocean.
00:07:05.017 --> 00:07:09.088
So, they do present a threat.
00:07:09.088 --> 00:07:11.657
The question is, how much longer will
00:07:11.657 --> 00:07:14.126
Their ammunition and their wherewithal, stay in place
00:07:14.126 --> 00:07:17.997
Now that their principal sponsor is on its knees?
00:07:17.997 --> 00:07:21.033
The iranians, would rather keep
00:07:21.667 --> 00:07:24.537
Any surface to surface missiles, to themselves.
00:07:24.537 --> 00:07:27.907
And then it becomes not just because they need them
00:07:27.907 --> 00:07:31.010
To maintain closure of the strait of hormuz,
00:07:31.010 --> 00:07:33.913
But how are they going to get them out of the country
00:07:33.913 --> 00:07:37.316
And across the ocean to yemen?
00:07:37.316 --> 00:07:39.318
That's that's a logistical impossibility at this point.
00:07:39.318 --> 00:07:42.888
Well, the president says that the pentagon's plans
00:07:43.889 --> 00:07:45.958
Are moving faster than he thought.
00:07:45.958 --> 00:07:47.960
Here's how he put it.
00:07:47.960 --> 00:07:49.261
We're ahead of schedule with iran.
00:07:49.261 --> 00:07:51.797
We're weeks ahead of schedule.
00:07:51.797 --> 00:07:54.199
If you would have said that in three days,
00:07:54.199 --> 00:07:56.001
We're going to knock out 158 ships, their entire navy,
00:07:56.001 --> 00:07:59.471
Which we did.
00:07:59.838 --> 00:08:00.673
We knocked out their entire air force.
00:08:00.673 --> 00:08:02.775
We knocked out most of their missiles.
00:08:02.775 --> 00:08:04.710
That's why you see missile attacks.
00:08:04.710 --> 00:08:06.211
But they're down to just sputtering.
00:08:06.211 --> 00:08:09.481
Well, the strait of hormuz is the biggest challenge.
00:08:09.481 --> 00:08:11.951
I've read that there are different
00:08:11.951 --> 00:08:13.118
Types of mines that iran is using.
00:08:13.118 --> 00:08:15.621
Some on the surface, some under the surface.
00:08:15.621 --> 00:08:17.890
And even some even hidden on the ocean floor.
00:08:17.890 --> 00:08:20.426
Do we have the equipment to remove them
00:08:20.426 --> 00:08:21.794
Or detonate them before ship traffic resumes on those routes?
00:08:21.794 --> 00:08:25.297
We've got some pretty exquisite technology to do that.
00:08:26.365 --> 00:08:29.368
And most navies, what they'll do
00:08:29.368 --> 00:08:31.670
Is they'll use side scanning sonar,
00:08:31.670 --> 00:08:33.572
And then they'll put divers in the water to go down
00:08:33.572 --> 00:08:36.208
And actually put charges on the mines to disable them.
00:08:36.208 --> 00:08:40.312
We can do that remotely without putting divers in the water,
00:08:40.312 --> 00:08:43.449
With towed arrays
00:08:43.882 --> 00:08:45.217
And things that we use with our mind sweeping helicopters.
00:08:45.217 --> 00:08:48.787
So we made that
00:08:48.787 --> 00:08:50.823
Technical investment
00:08:50.823 --> 00:08:52.024
Just so that we would not have to put,
00:08:52.024 --> 00:08:54.693
Divers in the water, because it's not only more dangerous
00:08:54.693 --> 00:08:57.896
To the divers, obviously, but it takes much, much longer
00:08:57.896 --> 00:09:01.200
To detect, locate and then destroy the mines.
00:09:01.200 --> 00:09:05.304
Some of the president's advisors have told the wall street
00:09:06.438 --> 00:09:08.974
Journal that the us may pull out before the strait is opened,
00:09:08.974 --> 00:09:12.745
Leaving it for other middle eastern countries,
00:09:12.745 --> 00:09:14.880
Europe and asia to address.
00:09:14.880 --> 00:09:17.282
Since there are a lot more dependent
00:09:17.282 --> 00:09:18.550
On what goes through the strait.
00:09:18.550 --> 00:09:20.419
He could be negotiating, or he might really mean it.
00:09:20.419 --> 00:09:23.255
Do you know whether those other countries
00:09:23.255 --> 00:09:24.690
Have the equipment to reopen the strait
00:09:24.690 --> 00:09:26.225
With the united states in a support only role?
00:09:26.225 --> 00:09:29.695
I don't think they do.
00:09:30.162 --> 00:09:31.397
And not only that, the ability for those nations to coordinate,
00:09:31.397 --> 00:09:35.167
Such an effort, lacking u.s.
00:09:35.167 --> 00:09:37.136
Leadership, i think would be very problematic.
00:09:37.136 --> 00:09:40.039
Do i think that,
00:09:40.039 --> 00:09:41.106
President trump will withdraw our forces before,
00:09:41.106 --> 00:09:44.009
This thing is really, done and put to bed?
00:09:44.009 --> 00:09:46.679
Absolutely not.
00:09:46.679 --> 00:09:48.013
Now that he's all in on this, as he well should be.
00:09:48.013 --> 00:09:51.717
Well, the president may decide that he needs to use soldiers
00:09:51.717 --> 00:09:54.386
To remove the enriched uranium.
00:09:54.386 --> 00:09:56.355
In other words, to go into the tunnels and carry it out.
00:09:56.355 --> 00:09:59.258
Do you have any idea if there's a safer way to do that,
00:09:59.258 --> 00:10:01.460
Rather than just blowing it up wherever they have it stored?
00:10:01.460 --> 00:10:05.464
I would think that
00:10:05.898 --> 00:10:08.000
Using, boots on the ground would be an absolute last resort.
00:10:08.000 --> 00:10:12.971
The iranians, they've been gaming
00:10:13.739 --> 00:10:16.408
This thing as well for for decades, just as we have.
00:10:16.408 --> 00:10:20.245
We have our playbook.
00:10:20.245 --> 00:10:21.780
They have theirs.
00:10:21.780 --> 00:10:23.015
A general mckenzie, who used to be
00:10:23.015 --> 00:10:24.783
The centcom commander, also agreed, and backed up.
00:10:24.783 --> 00:10:28.787
The president said that we're well ahead of schedule.
00:10:28.787 --> 00:10:31.256
That being the case,
00:10:31.256 --> 00:10:32.458
I don't see taking the enhanced risk of putting troops
00:10:32.458 --> 00:10:35.794
On the ground
00:10:35.794 --> 00:10:36.995
Other than in a raid type scenario where you go in quickly
00:10:36.995 --> 00:10:41.900
For a very narrow, targeted objective.
00:10:41.900 --> 00:10:44.970
Take out that objective and leave.
00:10:44.970 --> 00:10:47.639
Are we going to fly people, hundreds of miles up georgia?
00:10:47.639 --> 00:10:51.910
It's fun to go digging through the rubble to find,
00:10:51.910 --> 00:10:55.614
Enriched uranium.
00:10:56.048 --> 00:10:57.382
I don't think so.
00:10:57.382 --> 00:10:58.817
No. we're going to take out the offensive capability
00:10:58.817 --> 00:11:02.221
And the defensive capability that iran possesses
00:11:02.221 --> 00:11:06.024
With the, islamic revolutionary guard corps.
00:11:06.024 --> 00:11:09.061
The irgc opposed iran.
00:11:09.061 --> 00:11:11.430
If we can do that and weaken them,
00:11:11.430 --> 00:11:14.700
Then it gets reasonable for the negotiations
00:11:14.700 --> 00:11:19.404
To proceed with somebody,
00:11:19.404 --> 00:11:21.039
Somebody who does not have those irgc connections.
00:11:21.039 --> 00:11:24.209
They're the muscle keeping the mullahs in power.
00:11:24.209 --> 00:11:27.479
You take away that muscle,
00:11:27.479 --> 00:11:29.815
You deplete that you then have a chance for real
00:11:29.815 --> 00:11:32.885
Substantive negotiations with a different kind of regime.
00:11:32.885 --> 00:11:38.023
Well, the anti-trump
00:11:38.490 --> 00:11:39.691
Legacy media keeps asking whether the us military plans
00:11:39.691 --> 00:11:42.895
Are about deliberate strategic ambiguity or incoherence.
00:11:42.895 --> 00:11:47.065
And they're raising questions
00:11:47.699 --> 00:11:48.700
About ground troops and whether this is real
00:11:48.700 --> 00:11:50.636
Or just a bluff by the president.
00:11:50.636 --> 00:11:52.771
Do you remember any president ever telling people
00:11:52.771 --> 00:11:54.840
His attack plans and letting the enemy know
00:11:54.840 --> 00:11:56.708
What the strategy was ahead of time?
00:11:56.708 --> 00:12:00.179
No. as a matter of fact, one of my favorite,
00:12:00.179 --> 00:12:04.950
Books, it reading is called bodyguard of lies,
00:12:04.950 --> 00:12:08.687
And it's by a brit, anthony keith brown, and it covers
00:12:08.687 --> 00:12:12.024
The strategic deception plan that the axis where the allies
00:12:12.024 --> 00:12:15.360
Waged against the axis in world war two.
00:12:15.360 --> 00:12:18.397
The man who never was.
00:12:18.397 --> 00:12:19.665
That was one sliver of the incredible
00:12:19.665 --> 00:12:23.068
Intelligence effort that went into keeping it a secret.
00:12:23.068 --> 00:12:27.272
You don't leak strategic
00:12:27.806 --> 00:12:30.042
And tactical information to the news media.
00:12:30.042 --> 00:12:34.379
They find out things sometimes because there are leakers.
00:12:34.379 --> 00:12:37.683
And, you know,
00:12:37.683 --> 00:12:38.851
Thank goodness, up to this point,
00:12:38.851 --> 00:12:40.185
They haven't been stupid enough to publish it, they said.
00:12:40.185 --> 00:12:43.555
Or even the new york times.
00:12:43.555 --> 00:12:45.490
You know, i'm not a big fan, but, they,
00:12:45.490 --> 00:12:48.293
Evidently had uncovered, some of the earlier,
00:12:48.293 --> 00:12:51.563
Strike plans against iran and decided not to publish.
00:12:51.563 --> 00:12:55.434
So good on them for that.
00:12:55.434 --> 00:12:57.669
Well, captain nash, we need to take a short break.
00:12:57.669 --> 00:12:59.838
Would you please stand by for another segment?
00:12:59.838 --> 00:13:02.674
Happy to.
00:13:02.674 --> 00:13:03.542
We'll be right back.
00:13:03.542 --> 00:13:13.004
We'll be right back.
00:13:13.004 --> 00:13:17.458
We're back now with captain chuck nash.
00:13:18.259 --> 00:13:20.694
I saw some of the biased live cable news
00:13:20.694 --> 00:13:23.163
Coverage of the so-called no kings protest,
00:13:23.163 --> 00:13:26.166
And, predictably, the reporters assigned to cover it.
00:13:26.166 --> 00:13:28.335
We're all excited about what they called crowds,
00:13:28.335 --> 00:13:31.205
But they never mentioned how it was actually build
00:13:31.205 --> 00:13:33.107
In places like chicago and minnesota.
00:13:33.107 --> 00:13:35.542
The no kings music
00:13:35.542 --> 00:13:36.810
Rally in march with people like bruce springsteen.
00:13:36.810 --> 00:13:39.980
So it's free music, free music from someone they normally
00:13:39.980 --> 00:13:42.750
Have to pay a kingly ransom to see live.
00:13:42.750 --> 00:13:45.786
Nor did they mention the far left billionaires
00:13:45.786 --> 00:13:47.888
Who staged the rallies with mass produced signs
00:13:47.888 --> 00:13:50.024
And people they pay
00:13:50.024 --> 00:13:51.225
To show up with their oddly dyed hair and strange costumes.
00:13:51.225 --> 00:13:54.995
So, chuck, they say they don't like kings.
00:13:54.995 --> 00:13:57.097
So do you think they prefer ayatollahs?
00:13:57.097 --> 00:14:01.035
Well, that was a, $3 billion,
00:14:01.669 --> 00:14:05.973
Tds therapy session for a bunch of the bunch of folks who,
00:14:07.107 --> 00:14:13.781
Got their pre-planned, free printed signs.
00:14:13.781 --> 00:14:17.217
We're told when the chant,
00:14:17.785 --> 00:14:20.254
The whole thing was set up by the normal leftist groups
00:14:20.254 --> 00:14:23.390
That have been funding this kind of nonsense for some time.
00:14:23.390 --> 00:14:27.461
It was good to get
00:14:27.895 --> 00:14:29.363
A bunch of
00:14:29.363 --> 00:14:30.197
Elderly people out there on the street
00:14:30.197 --> 00:14:31.432
Getting a little bit of exercise.
00:14:31.432 --> 00:14:33.701
And i'm sure that they enjoyed it, but that was not a protest.
00:14:33.701 --> 00:14:37.671
I've seen it called
00:14:37.671 --> 00:14:38.872
A political warfare dressed up as civil engagement.
00:14:38.872 --> 00:14:43.377
And i think that's more accurate.
00:14:43.377 --> 00:14:46.347
Tennessee republican bill hagerty
00:14:46.347 --> 00:14:48.182
Has put out a warning about iran sleeper cells in the us.
00:14:48.182 --> 00:14:51.952
1500 iranians were intercepted
00:14:51.952 --> 00:14:53.921
At the border during biden's administration's open border.
00:14:53.921 --> 00:14:57.091
But no one knows how many others got through undetected.
00:14:57.091 --> 00:15:00.294
At the same time, democrats are trying to shut down eyes
00:15:00.294 --> 00:15:03.297
If they already forgotten where we were leading up to 911.
00:15:03.297 --> 00:15:08.035
Yeah, i think
00:15:08.402 --> 00:15:09.236
Memories are kind of short on that.
00:15:09.236 --> 00:15:12.039
Of the 1500, a little over 1507
00:15:12.039 --> 00:15:14.208
Or 700 of them were released into the united states.
00:15:14.208 --> 00:15:17.611
And as you say, the guy who was
00:15:17.611 --> 00:15:20.781
Literally in the millions got away.
00:15:20.781 --> 00:15:23.650
We have no idea who those people are, where they are.
00:15:23.650 --> 00:15:26.854
And we've probably lost track of the 700 that we did admit it.
00:15:26.854 --> 00:15:31.191
So that threat is there, the sleeper cell is there.
00:15:31.191 --> 00:15:34.962
And it's it's not just, senator,
00:15:34.962 --> 00:15:38.132
Haggerty.
00:15:38.432 --> 00:15:39.366
It's also,
00:15:39.366 --> 00:15:42.069
Oh, senator wyden on the other side of the aisle.
00:15:42.069 --> 00:15:45.239
Both of them have come out senate intelligence committee
00:15:45.239 --> 00:15:48.175
And warned about this sleeper cell option.
00:15:48.175 --> 00:15:51.045
We've had an open border for the entire biden administration,
00:15:51.045 --> 00:15:55.549
And i've seen estimates as high as 20 million.
00:15:55.549 --> 00:15:58.752
You know, people illegally, in this country.
00:15:58.752 --> 00:16:01.989
And it surged
00:16:01.989 --> 00:16:03.357
During that four year period when people were coming across.
00:16:03.357 --> 00:16:06.894
We have no idea who's in this country.
00:16:06.894 --> 00:16:08.862
And to to say that the people who are responsible
00:16:08.862 --> 00:16:12.433
For enforcing the immigration law. ice
00:16:12.433 --> 00:16:16.203
Needs to stand
00:16:16.537 --> 00:16:17.471
Down and be defunded is absolute insanity.
00:16:17.471 --> 00:16:20.774
It's national suicide.
00:16:20.774 --> 00:16:24.011
We've noticed how the chinese are backing away from any sort
00:16:24.011 --> 00:16:26.947
Of public encouragement of iran,
00:16:26.947 --> 00:16:29.149
Despite the fact that they sold iran
00:16:29.149 --> 00:16:30.851
All sorts of chinese designed and produced weapons.
00:16:30.851 --> 00:16:33.787
If, from all reports, what china build
00:16:33.787 --> 00:16:35.355
Isn't holding up against the u.s.
00:16:35.355 --> 00:16:36.690
Weapons, radar and otherwise, do you think they're producing
00:16:36.690 --> 00:16:39.693
Volume alone versus anything that is really much of a threat?
00:16:39.693 --> 00:16:44.431
Based on what
00:16:44.798 --> 00:16:45.699
I've seen and the knocked down
00:16:45.699 --> 00:16:49.136
Of the missiles and drones that the iranians have been using.
00:16:49.136 --> 00:16:53.841
I would have to assess that our countermeasures
00:16:53.841 --> 00:16:59.213
Working against that chinese technology is superior.
00:16:59.213 --> 00:17:03.517
There have been thousands
00:17:04.084 --> 00:17:05.719
Of rounds of saying different things fired at israel
00:17:05.719 --> 00:17:08.922
And at our bases and our, host nation.
00:17:08.922 --> 00:17:12.826
Bases.
00:17:13.026 --> 00:17:13.794
The countries in the gulf,
00:17:13.794 --> 00:17:15.796
Thousands and very few get, get through the,
00:17:15.796 --> 00:17:19.233
Through the defenses.
00:17:19.733 --> 00:17:20.934
So i would have to assume and assume i would assess
00:17:20.934 --> 00:17:24.805
That we have,
00:17:25.172 --> 00:17:27.007
Reverse engineered
00:17:27.441 --> 00:17:29.276
A lot of the chinese technology and that we can deal with it.
00:17:29.276 --> 00:17:33.213
China is definitely going to school on this.
00:17:33.213 --> 00:17:36.617
And the moderate
00:17:36.617 --> 00:17:38.185
Where the chinese technology that had recently been installed
00:17:38.185 --> 00:17:41.989
With the technical support was made useless.
00:17:41.989 --> 00:17:46.727
I've got one last question about iran.
00:17:47.561 --> 00:17:49.596
You have much experience.
00:17:49.596 --> 00:17:51.565
Help us understand what an acceptable
00:17:51.565 --> 00:17:53.867
Conclusion to this is.
00:17:53.867 --> 00:17:55.102
Do we need kharg island?
00:17:55.102 --> 00:17:57.437
Is it a regime change? what are you looking at?
00:17:57.437 --> 00:17:59.439
You've got a lot of military expertise.
00:17:59.439 --> 00:18:01.808
Help us navigate.
00:18:01.808 --> 00:18:02.910
Because we hear so many talking heads.
00:18:02.910 --> 00:18:06.246
I think a win is one.
00:18:06.747 --> 00:18:09.550
Removing any threat from the country of iran.
00:18:09.550 --> 00:18:15.022
That means probably getting rid of the current regime chain.
00:18:15.022 --> 00:18:19.993
And it is a different regime that's in there now,
00:18:19.993 --> 00:18:22.729
Because the harmony and many of the other
00:18:22.729 --> 00:18:24.831
Senior leaders, many of them have already been,
00:18:24.831 --> 00:18:27.868
Killed, but it's still the same group of people.
00:18:27.868 --> 00:18:31.672
They have range, but they have depth.
00:18:31.672 --> 00:18:34.174
So it's getting rid of them.
00:18:34.174 --> 00:18:36.176
They're going to have to go.
00:18:36.176 --> 00:18:37.211
That's the israelis.
00:18:37.211 --> 00:18:38.946
Their main objective, ours is removing the physical threat,
00:18:38.946 --> 00:18:42.182
The kinetic threat, removing any capability
00:18:42.182 --> 00:18:45.619
For a nuclear weapons, removing the ability to produce
00:18:45.619 --> 00:18:49.823
Those weapons that we're trying to get rid of.
00:18:49.823 --> 00:18:53.060
And it just having a peaceful
00:18:53.060 --> 00:18:56.830
Nation that can integrate back into civilized society
00:18:56.830 --> 00:19:01.168
So that they're not sponsoring
00:19:01.168 --> 00:19:03.904
The houthis, hezbollah, hamas
00:19:03.904 --> 00:19:06.707
And and other bad actors throughout the world.
00:19:06.707 --> 00:19:10.777
Well, captain nash, as
00:19:11.245 --> 00:19:12.412
Always, thank you for your part in keeping america safe.
00:19:12.412 --> 00:19:15.349
We'll see you again soon.
00:19:15.349 --> 00:19:17.651
My pleasure.
00:19:17.651 --> 00:19:18.185
I look forward to it.
00:19:18.185 --> 00:19:20.120
In a moment.
00:19:20.120 --> 00:19:21.021
Your emails, there are plenty of them.
00:19:21.021 --> 00:19:22.889
Your feedback is always welcome.
00:19:22.889 --> 00:19:24.992
I'll be right back.
00:19:24.992 --> 00:19:34.005
I'll be right back.
00:19:34.005 --> 00:19:38.505
Thank you for spending a few minutes of your day with us.
00:19:39.640 --> 00:19:42.276
And for those of you who send your emails,
00:19:42.276 --> 00:19:44.044
A very special thanks. they're always a highlight.
00:19:44.044 --> 00:19:46.580
Yvonne from alabama, said my husband ran for congress,
00:19:46.580 --> 00:19:50.450
And i was speaking to a group
00:19:50.450 --> 00:19:51.785
Of a major denominational church,
00:19:51.785 --> 00:19:53.287
And i said, you cannot be a christian and a democrat.
00:19:53.287 --> 00:19:57.157
A gentleman came up to me after it was over and asked why?
00:19:57.157 --> 00:19:59.760
And i said, well, democrats don't want to know the truth.
00:19:59.760 --> 00:20:02.162
Read your bible and see if you can believe
00:20:02.162 --> 00:20:03.830
What they believe.
00:20:03.830 --> 00:20:05.232
The democrats i know don't believe truth.
00:20:05.232 --> 00:20:07.167
They believe what they want to believe.
00:20:07.167 --> 00:20:09.069
God bless you.
00:20:09.069 --> 00:20:10.804
Lavon, i wish it was as simple as democrat and republican.
00:20:10.804 --> 00:20:14.408
You know, at the end of the day, no matter
00:20:14.408 --> 00:20:15.776
Which political label you choose to affiliate with,
00:20:15.776 --> 00:20:19.112
I believe the fundamental truth is
00:20:19.112 --> 00:20:20.714
You can't ignore biblical principles.
00:20:20.714 --> 00:20:22.449
You can't ignore a biblical worldview
00:20:22.449 --> 00:20:24.384
And imagine yourselves to be a christ follower.
00:20:24.384 --> 00:20:27.054
We don't have a designer faith.
00:20:27.054 --> 00:20:29.056
We are committed to the principle that jesus is lord
00:20:29.056 --> 00:20:32.159
And that we serve at his pleasure.
00:20:32.159 --> 00:20:33.894
And he establishes the boundaries
00:20:33.894 --> 00:20:35.962
And we submit to them.
00:20:35.962 --> 00:20:37.597
That has to trump our political affiliation.
00:20:37.597 --> 00:20:39.700
That's why i always say that
00:20:39.700 --> 00:20:41.034
I think our fundamental problems are spiritual, not political.
00:20:41.034 --> 00:20:44.271
If you'll have a change of heart.
00:20:44.271 --> 00:20:45.806
Those of us who gather in churches,
00:20:45.806 --> 00:20:47.708
We'll see a political change.
00:20:47.708 --> 00:20:48.942
I look forward to the day when republicans and democrats
00:20:48.942 --> 00:20:51.812
Both stand with biblical worldviews,
00:20:51.812 --> 00:20:53.613
And we can make choices between that
00:20:53.613 --> 00:20:56.049
Djt and saint louis e-mail.
00:20:56.650 --> 00:20:57.984
Thank you so much for your media bias episode.
00:20:57.984 --> 00:21:00.487
I believe the so-called mainstream media
00:21:00.487 --> 00:21:02.589
Is one of the major causes for our divided nations,
00:21:02.589 --> 00:21:05.859
And apparently there are still many people
00:21:05.859 --> 00:21:07.861
Who believe they're getting the truth from those media outlets.
00:21:07.861 --> 00:21:10.230
I'm so thankful that the lord led me to your ministry.
00:21:10.230 --> 00:21:12.966
Please do more episodes like this.
00:21:12.966 --> 00:21:14.501
More and more people
00:21:14.501 --> 00:21:15.469
Need to see the legacy media for what it is.
00:21:15.469 --> 00:21:18.205
Well, the legacy media certainly has some weaknesses,
00:21:18.205 --> 00:21:21.007
But social media now is creating a whole new set of deception
00:21:21.007 --> 00:21:24.010
For younger people that are more dependent on that,
00:21:24.010 --> 00:21:26.079
Not just younger people.
00:21:26.079 --> 00:21:28.014
Truth in the public square.
00:21:28.014 --> 00:21:29.349
That's the goal.
00:21:29.349 --> 00:21:30.384
But it starts with truth that our kitchen tables
00:21:30.384 --> 00:21:32.552
And then truth in our circles of friends.
00:21:32.552 --> 00:21:34.688
And from there, further out,
00:21:34.688 --> 00:21:36.323
Let's start to tell the truth and see what happens.
00:21:36.323 --> 00:21:39.593
Chuck in west virginia.
00:21:40.093 --> 00:21:41.595
Thank you. pastor jackson.
00:21:41.595 --> 00:21:42.829
Your interview with beth van dyne
00:21:42.829 --> 00:21:44.331
Was on target, revealing a sad reality out of the left.
00:21:44.331 --> 00:21:48.135
Get there.
00:21:48.135 --> 00:21:49.269
The bible and number 16.
00:21:49.269 --> 00:21:50.804
There were certain people that had mds moses derangement
00:21:50.804 --> 00:21:55.208
Syndrome that ended up with harsh judgment from above.
00:21:55.208 --> 00:21:59.713
Yeah, i think people who have a fundamental reaction
00:21:59.713 --> 00:22:02.716
To the truth.
00:22:02.716 --> 00:22:03.550
I didn't start with president trump,
00:22:03.550 --> 00:22:05.619
And it won't end when his term is over.
00:22:05.619 --> 00:22:07.954
It starts in the hearts of people.
00:22:07.954 --> 00:22:09.423
Let's be the difference. thank you for your time today.
00:22:09.423 --> 00:22:12.292
God bless you.
00:22:12.292 --> 00:22:13.126
You have a good evening.
00:22:13.126 --> 00:22:13.126
