TBN Israel's Yair Pinto reports on the Israel-Hamas War. Day 691, Iran’s global terror network just got exposed this time in Australia. As the IRGC is linked to anti-Semitic attacks in Melbourne, Australia responds with a dramatic diplomatic expulsion. Meanwhile, in Gaza, the IDF prepares for a massive ground operation that could change the face of Gaza City, while Hamas digs in and blocks civilians from evacuating. In the north, Hezbollah is not backing down, and Israel is building new outposts in southern Lebanon. Plus: a deadly Israeli airstrike near Damascus puts pressure on Syrian negotiations, and Iran’s nuclear defiance pushes Europe closer to snapback sanctions.

- Country, the ground itself is a trap. landmines and leftover
- 00:08:55.952 --> 00:09:00.757

- 00:09:31.821 --> 00:09:36.526
- Looks away from this horror, yet never looks away from the
- 00:09:36.526 --> 00:09:40.129
- Land of israel. you'll hear accusations by the hour, but
- 00:09:40.129 --> 00:09:43.633
- Not the part where the idf fights under a written moral
- 00:09:43.633 --> 00:09:46.469
- Code and broadcasts warnings to keep civilians out of the line
- 00:09:46.469 --> 00:09:50.506
- Of fire. you never hear about that. but while terror groups
- 00:09:50.506 --> 00:09:54.310
- Hide behind those same civilians and feed the cameras,
- 00:09:54.310 --> 00:09:57.747
- That's the playbook. human shields. above ground tunnels.
- 00:09:57.747 --> 00:10:02.885

- Best to report on what's been happening with the druze.

- 00:10:46.796 --> 00:10:49.499
- See this as yet another regional conflict to them. and
- 00:10:49.499 --> 00:10:52.301
- Yet we've been seeing firsthand here, which is every time
- 00:10:52.301 --> 00:10:54.637

- 00:10:54.637 --> 00:10:57.340
- New leader, the first to suffer, the second to suffer, the third
- 00:10:57.340 --> 00:11:00.643
- To suffer are the minorities. first was the alawites. and we
- 00:11:00.643 --> 00:11:03.413
- Said, oh, it's because of this. then it was the christians,
- 00:11:03.413 --> 00:11:05.581
- Then it was the druze. it's always minorities that suffer

- I led efforts between 2017 and 19 in the nineveh plains in

- Northern iraq. same ideology, same evil people, you know,

- Don't even want to talk about it. i think they're blinded by
- 00:11:37.914 --> 00:11:42.518
- This smokescreen of deception about what this conflict is
- 00:11:42.518 --> 00:11:45.788
- Actually about. it's a 1400 year old conflict. it's never
- 00:11:45.788 --> 00:11:48.891
- Changed from day one. we have all the data we need, and yet
- 00:11:48.891 --> 00:11:53.496
- We still get smoke screened by politicians, including
- 00:11:53.496 --> 00:11:57.700
- Conservative. it's bizarre to me, but we're going to change
- 00:11:57.700 --> 00:12:00.403
- It. i'm going to do everything i can to change it.
- 00:12:00.403 --> 00:12:02.638
- >> you're in syria?
- 00:12:02.638 --> 00:12:03.773
- >> yeah.
- 00:12:03.773 --> 00:12:04.841
- >> and i think the big unknown here, like the x and the
- 00:12:04.941 --> 00:12:07.610
- Equation is why is it that this thing is happening and no one's
- 00:12:07.610 --> 00:12:10.580
- Talking about it? maybe it blipped on the headlines for a
- 00:12:10.580 --> 00:12:13.349
- Couple days, and oftentimes it said, and i remember this
- 00:12:13.349 --> 00:12:16.753
- Amusingly, it says israel attacks in syria. meanwhile,
- 00:12:16.753 --> 00:12:18.588
- There's literally an attempted genocide taking place in syria,
- 00:12:18.588 --> 00:12:21.491
- And no one's talking about it.
- 00:12:21.491 --> 00:12:23.626
- >> i'm not a politician. i don't have a network. i have no
- 00:12:23.626 --> 00:12:28.331
- Agenda to carry other than rescuing god's children. that's
- 00:12:28.331 --> 00:12:30.533
- It. that's it. because the lies hurting my efforts to
- 00:12:30.533 --> 00:12:34.604
- Rescue children. truth. truthfully, that's what's going
- 00:12:34.604 --> 00:12:36.472
- On. the same people who used to support me are hurting me. by
- 00:12:36.472 --> 00:12:40.510
- Lying. about what? the conflict in israel. what's happening is
- 00:12:40.510 --> 00:12:43.746
- Genocide. it's october 7th, but on steroids. there's 700,000
- 00:12:43.746 --> 00:12:50.219
- Jews and christians. these jews people are amazing. i've been
- 00:12:50.219 --> 00:12:53.122
- In their homes. i've been gathering intel, going to their
- 00:12:53.122 --> 00:12:56.659
- Villages, and they are from the lineage of jethro. jethro is a
- 00:12:56.659 --> 00:13:01.364
- Very important person in the old testament. jethro
- 00:13:01.364 --> 00:13:03.599
- Rehabilitated moses. jethro taught moses how to establish a
- 00:13:03.599 --> 00:13:08.271
- Government. it's all there. we could do it right. the founding
- 00:13:08.271 --> 00:13:11.674
- Fathers of america utilized more than any other source, the
- 00:13:11.674 --> 00:13:15.444
- Old testament to create one nation under god. we are
- 00:13:15.444 --> 00:13:18.314
- Connected in more ways than one to these people, and they're
- 00:13:18.314 --> 00:13:21.551
- The pretorian for the christians, the three christian
- 00:13:21.551 --> 00:13:23.486
- Villages in the last week that were just there were slammed,
- 00:13:23.486 --> 00:13:26.255
- Ripped apart, crosses burning. and who took them in, who took
- 00:13:26.255 --> 00:13:30.193
- Care of them? the druze people, under the tradn
- 00:13:30.193 --> 00:13:32.628
- Of their father, jethro, they took them in. so we
- 00:13:32.628 --> 00:13:35.331
- All are connected to this in multiple ways. and it's
- 00:13:35.331 --> 00:13:39.535
- Genocide. it's an evil ideology that teaches them
- 00:13:39.535 --> 00:13:42.605
- To kill the infidels. christians and druze and jews
- 00:13:42.605 --> 00:13:47.376
- Are infidels, and that's what they're doing. it's there's
- 00:13:47.376 --> 00:13:50.379
- Only one thing we got to kill them because god will be happy
- 00:13:50.379 --> 00:13:53.316
- And give us, you know, 42 virgins in heaven if we do it.
- 00:13:53.316 --> 00:13:56.219
- That's what this is. it's that it's that stark and it's that
- 00:13:56.219 --> 00:13:59.555
- Evil. these are peaceful villages. they don't. they
- 00:13:59.555 --> 00:14:02.525
- Support the governments. they want to participate with
- 00:14:02.525 --> 00:14:05.628
- Damascus, just like they participate here. i mean, i
- 00:14:05.628 --> 00:14:08.364
- Can't tell you how many druze soldiers i met who work in and
- 00:14:08.364 --> 00:14:12.401
- Proudly with their brothers in the idf. i mean, it's it's just
- 00:14:12.401 --> 00:14:16.172
- Unbelievable.
- 00:14:16.172 --> 00:14:17.306
- >> you present this question mark saying, look, people
- 00:14:17.306 --> 00:14:19.275
- Around the world are quiet about what's been happening in
- 00:14:19.275 --> 00:14:22.345
- Syria. and i'll say this, i look at this from someone who
- 00:14:22.345 --> 00:14:25.848
- Lives in the middle east. and i look at it and i say, there's
- 00:14:25.848 --> 00:14:29.585
- There's a systematic, intentional ignorance of what's
- 00:14:29.585 --> 00:14:31.387
- Happening here, where unless it's a topic that clicks
- 00:14:31.387 --> 00:14:34.190
- Exactly into place, where they can say, oh, i know this one.
- 00:14:34.190 --> 00:14:36.993
- I'm for israel, i'm against israel. it just never hits the
- 00:14:36.993 --> 00:14:40.196
- Radar for anyone. and it happened in iraq. it happened
- 00:14:40.196 --> 00:14:42.665
- With isis, it happened with the arab spring. and you look at
- 00:14:42.665 --> 00:14:46.135
- This like these people declare themselves to be like the
- 00:14:46.135 --> 00:14:48.337
- Beacons of justice and hope around the world, and yet
- 00:14:48.337 --> 00:14:51.040
- They're silent every time something goes wrong. just last
- 00:14:51.040 --> 00:14:53.376
- Month, the us pulls out a government, you know, so
- 00:14:53.376 --> 00:14:58.281
- Al-julani, depending on the day of the week, whatever his name
- 00:14:58.281 --> 00:15:01.250
- Is, they pull him out of like the most wanted list and say,
- 00:15:01.250 --> 00:15:04.553
- Look, this guy's reformed. he's no longer the arch terrorist
- 00:15:04.553 --> 00:15:07.290
- That he was a couple years ago. the fight alongside isis and
- 00:15:07.290 --> 00:15:10.159
- Bab al shabab and all these different organizations. now
- 00:15:10.159 --> 00:15:12.628
- He's a different guy. he's wearing a suit now. he speaks
- 00:15:12.628 --> 00:15:15.331
- Nicely. he's the same guy he was before, but they choose to
- 00:15:15.331 --> 00:15:18.401
- Ignore what he's actually doing and follow the rhetoric because
- 00:15:18.401 --> 00:15:20.569
- For some reason it's more comfortable for them. i don't
- 00:15:20.569 --> 00:15:23.572
- Know, to explain it. maybe you have a better explanation to
- 00:15:23.572 --> 00:15:25.975
- That.
- 00:15:25.975 --> 00:15:27.043
- >> well, the only way i can explain it is you can say
- 00:15:27.143 --> 00:15:29.345
- What you want, but the action is what tells me who
- 00:15:29.345 --> 00:15:32.081
- You are, and he's letting this happen. if he didn't
- 00:15:32.081 --> 00:15:34.483
- Do it himself, he's letting it happen. we're screaming
- 00:15:34.483 --> 00:15:37.053
- To him to stop it, help it. we can get provisions and the idf
- 00:15:37.053 --> 00:15:40.089
- Is ready to go. but the roads are blockaded right now. people
- 00:15:40.089 --> 00:15:43.326
- Are dying right now as we as we're talking. and so, look, i
- 00:15:43.326 --> 00:15:46.228
- Don't care what you're wearing. i don't care what your past was
- 00:15:46.228 --> 00:15:49.532
- If you're reformed or not. show me. just show me right
- 00:15:49.532 --> 00:15:52.335
- Now. you can do it right now and show me.
- 00:15:52.335 --> 00:15:55.404
- >> so what can people do? someone sitting at their
- 00:15:55.404 --> 00:15:57.073
- House in canada, north america, philippines, wherever
- 00:15:57.073 --> 00:15:59.508
- They are.
- 00:15:59.508 --> 00:16:00.609
- >> first and foremost, educate yourself. yeah, i'm doing
- 00:16:00.710 --> 00:16:01.978
- Everything i can to my social media and we're putting all the
- 00:16:01.978 --> 00:16:05.147
- Raw footage. luckily, we're not being censored, thank god,
- 00:16:05.147 --> 00:16:07.083
- Because we need to show people what's happening. but people
- 00:16:07.083 --> 00:16:09.518
- Can also donate to us. the tim ballard foundation. we
- 00:16:09.518 --> 00:16:12.021
- Literally stood up this foundation just for this. we
- 00:16:12.021 --> 00:16:14.590
- Weren't planning on doing it. we just stood it up because
- 00:16:14.590 --> 00:16:17.793
- We're like, we need help right now. but i'll tell you what, i
- 00:16:17.793 --> 00:16:25.034
- Thought we were the tip of the spear when we got here last
- 00:16:25.034 --> 00:16:28.337
- Week, getting into syria. once we got there, guess who we
- 00:16:28.337 --> 00:16:31.440
- Bumped into? it's the idf. yes. no cameras. they don't know
- 00:16:31.440 --> 00:16:35.011
- What i'm going to be their voice because they're not.
- 00:16:35.011 --> 00:16:37.747
- They're out there forward deployed. they don't care.
- 00:16:37.747 --> 00:16:39.915
- Christian druze. there's no jews out there. they're out
- 00:16:39.915 --> 00:16:42.318
- There because it's the right thing to do. because they love
- 00:16:42.318 --> 00:16:45.254
- God and they love their neighbor. and they're literally
- 00:16:45.254 --> 00:16:47.923
- Bringing in christians and druze and and saving their
- 00:16:47.923 --> 00:16:50.693
- Lives. i watched them do it, and they're weeping over these
- 00:16:50.693 --> 00:16:54.063
- People. that's who the idf is. that's who israel is. yeah. and
- 00:16:54.063 --> 00:16:58.034
- I again, i have no one asked me to say this. no one's paying me
- 00:16:58.034 --> 00:17:02.271
- Anything. i rescue kids and whatever truth i need to fill
- 00:17:02.271 --> 00:17:05.708
- That gap so i can do that. i'm going to tell it. and
- 00:17:05.708 --> 00:17:09.345
- That's the truth. the truth is, the idf is the tip of
- 00:17:09.345 --> 00:17:12.181
- The spear in rescuing these people, and they're doing
- 00:17:12.181 --> 00:17:14.183
- It without cameras. well, i got cameras on me, and i'm
- 00:17:14.183 --> 00:17:17.153
- Going to tell the truth about what's happening.
- 00:17:17.153 --> 00:17:19.522
- >> so let me ask you a philosophical question. i
- 00:17:19.522 --> 00:17:22.124
- Feel sometimes people are uncomfortable admitting
- 00:17:22.124 --> 00:17:23.659
- That there's evil in the world. and i'll explain
- 00:17:23.659 --> 00:17:25.261
- What that means. there's a thread that connects the
- 00:17:25.261 --> 00:17:27.863
- Radical muslims in syria right now that are killing
- 00:17:27.863 --> 00:17:30.499
- The jews and the christians the alawites to isis,
- 00:17:30.499 --> 00:17:32.401
- To gaza, hamas. it's the sam to gaza, hamas. it's the sae
- 00:17:32.401 --> 00:17:35.004
- To gaza, hamas. it's the sae ideological movement. it's
- 00:17:35.004 --> 00:17:36.172
- Called the muslim brotherhood. it's a stream within sunni
- 00:17:36.172 --> 00:17:39.575
- Islam that is radical, that is violent, that is systemically
- 00:17:39.575 --> 00:17:43.412
- And consistently brought death and destruction to the
- 00:17:43.412 --> 00:17:46.115
- Countries they were involved in. and i think in a lot of
- 00:17:46.115 --> 00:17:49.085
- People's head, they have this aversion to just pointing and
- 00:17:49.085 --> 00:17:51.053
- Saying, there's good here, and these guys are just pure evil,
- 00:17:51.053 --> 00:17:54.290
- And we need to fight against the evil with everything we
- 00:17:54.290 --> 00:17:56.959
- Have. and it's like this, like very standoffish, like, oh, we
- 00:17:56.959 --> 00:17:59.929
- Don't want to say something that will offend them. why
- 00:17:59.929 --> 00:18:02.131
- Can't you just be honest about it?
- 00:18:02.131 --> 00:18:04.066
- >> be honest. just be honest. it is that stark. it is
- 00:18:04.066 --> 00:18:07.069
- That black and white, evil and good. that's what this
- 00:18:07.069 --> 00:18:09.071
- War it really is. and 100% is. and you mentioned the
- 00:18:09.071 --> 00:18:12.308
- Muslim brotherhood. like, guys wake up like this
- 00:18:12.308 --> 00:18:14.043
- Whole thing. people in their minds think that the
- 00:18:14.043 --> 00:18:16.645
- Palestinians are some kind of race, like it's some kind of
- 00:18:16.645 --> 00:18:19.081
- Ethnic group. no, guys. yasser arafat, he was imported by the
- 00:18:19.081 --> 00:18:22.952
- Muslim brotherhood and create a nation concept that's tricking
- 00:18:22.952 --> 00:18:26.088
- The west just to wreak havoc and kill jews and minorities.
- 00:18:26.088 --> 00:18:30.092
- The devil's reohm. i'm sorry, i know i've been in the
- 00:18:30.092 --> 00:18:34.730
- Trenches fighting the rape of children. believe me,
- 00:18:34.730 --> 00:18:37.500
- That's a spiritual warfare. and evil always uses
- 00:18:37.500 --> 00:18:40.903
- Deception. that's what the devil uses. and my country
- 00:18:40.903 --> 00:18:44.840
- And the west is falling for the smokescreen. it's part
- 00:18:44.840 --> 00:18:47.343
- Of the evil tactic. it's deception. people gotta
- 00:18:47.343 --> 00:18:50.112
- Wake up. study. i tell people, if you don't spend
- 00:18:50.112 --> 00:18:53.115
- At least 25 hours studying real material on both sides,
- 00:18:53.115 --> 00:18:56.185
- Study both sides and then get your butts to israel and
- 00:18:56.185 --> 00:18:59.088
- Let someone walk you into gaza. let someone walk you to the
- 00:18:59.088 --> 00:19:01.991
- Border of syria. then you can begin to talk. don't even talk.
- 00:19:01.991 --> 00:19:06.061
- Don't even talk because you're hurting my efforts to rescue
- 00:19:06.061 --> 00:19:08.030
- Kids. you're hurting the us efforts to survive if you keep
- 00:19:08.030 --> 00:19:12.268
- Lying.
- 00:19:12.268 --> 00:19:16.839
- >> how can an ideology that claims to be godly practice
- 00:19:16.839 --> 00:19:21.310
- Such violence and such evil? and yet thousands of westerners
- 00:19:21.310 --> 00:19:25.848
- Flood the streets, insisting israel is the problem. israel,
- 00:19:25.848 --> 00:19:29.985
- A democracy with equal rights for all, cares for the
- 00:19:29.985 --> 00:19:33.789
- Vulnerable in society, both theirs and around the world. it
- 00:19:33.789 --> 00:19:38.093
- Fights to defend life while its enemies glorify death. it is
- 00:19:38.093 --> 00:19:43.065
- Time for people to wake up and educate themselves on the truth.
- 00:19:43.065 --> 00:19:50.639
- Just to give you a tidbit of my personal story, i spent, i want
- 00:19:50.639 --> 00:19:55.244
- To say, going on like 340 days in reserve since october 7th,
- 00:19:55.244 --> 00:19:57.980
- 2023. i have three kids. very, very rough time for the family.
- 00:19:57.980 --> 00:20:02.051
- But in that time, people, you know, they keep asking, oh, i
- 00:20:02.051 --> 00:20:04.920
- Bet it's such a rough time. such a rough time. no, it's
- 00:20:04.920 --> 00:20:08.123
- Been the most clarifying season of my life for once. you know,
- 00:20:08.123 --> 00:20:11.026
- This happens once in a lifetime. you're sucked out of everyday
- 00:20:11.026 --> 00:20:13.896
- Life. you're. i'm not, you know, in management, not in
- 00:20:13.896 --> 00:20:16.899
- Leadership of other people. i'm leading my soldiers in the
- 00:20:16.899 --> 00:20:18.934
- Battlefield. and in that time, we know exactly who the enemy
- 00:20:18.934 --> 00:20:22.104
- Is. we know exactly what we're fighting for. and that was
- 00:20:22.104 --> 00:20:25.040
- Vague before october 7th, 2023. you know, we lost touch of like,
- 00:20:25.040 --> 00:20:28.877
- What good was what evil was. people in israel were very like
- 00:20:28.877 --> 00:20:32.281
- In this humanistic and, you know, almost materialistic
- 00:20:32.281 --> 00:20:34.016
- Mindset. and, you know, it got snapped out of us like, wake up
- 00:20:34.016 --> 00:20:37.186
- Guys, remember where you are. and remember that you have to
- 00:20:37.186 --> 00:20:40.122
- Fight for the promise. we realized that we're in a
- 00:20:40.122 --> 00:20:43.325
- Biblical battle once more, that there the amalekites. not in
- 00:20:43.325 --> 00:20:45.794
- The sense just of biblical hatred, in the sense that we're
- 00:20:45.794 --> 00:20:49.098
- Fighting against people that have been corrupted by evil.
- 00:20:49.098 --> 00:20:51.734
- And we have to fight for what god gave us. we're here because
- 00:20:51.734 --> 00:20:55.204
- God put us here. and that moment is, you know, that
- 00:20:55.204 --> 00:20:58.274
- Doesn't come twice in a lifetime. i hope you know, it's
- 00:20:58.274 --> 00:21:00.342
- Just a really clarifying, really, you know, cleansing
- 00:21:00.342 --> 00:21:03.779
- Moment of, of, of focus as a nation. i hope to your point
- 00:21:03.779 --> 00:21:08.751
- That other nations don't have to experience that firsthand,
- 00:21:08.751 --> 00:21:12.087
- Because if you don't see that, if they're not able to look at
- 00:21:12.087 --> 00:21:15.858
- What's happening here, if they can't say this is evil and this
- 00:21:15.858 --> 00:21:19.128
- Is good, it ends up at their doorstep, it ends up in their
- 00:21:19.128 --> 00:21:22.131
- Kids being assaulted. it ends up at their countries being
- 00:21:22.131 --> 00:21:24.166
- Stolen and taken over by radicals. there's no end to it.
- 00:21:24.166 --> 00:21:26.835
- >> that's right. i'm using sound of freedom i have not.
- 00:21:26.835 --> 00:21:30.039
- >> talked about. i apologize.
- 00:21:30.039 --> 00:21:31.206
- >> it's okay. i'm gonna walk off the set now. okay.
- 00:21:31.206 --> 00:21:33.742
- >> but i understand that it's fair.
- 00:21:33.742 --> 00:21:36.045
- >> i'll watch it. but there's a there's a line in the sand of
- 00:21:36.045 --> 00:21:38.981
- Freedom. and jim caviezel plays me in the film. right. and and
- 00:21:38.981 --> 00:21:41.850
- He's trying to convince someone of this very thing you're
- 00:21:41.850 --> 00:21:44.953
- Saying. he's like, wake up now, wake up now. and then he says,
- 00:21:44.953 --> 00:21:47.956
- And if you don't, you will have a nightmare so devastating. and
- 00:21:47.956 --> 00:21:50.859
- It's a nightmare you'll never wake up from when it happens to
- 00:21:50.859 --> 00:21:53.662
- You and it's coming. and i issue that same advisement to
- 00:21:53.662 --> 00:21:57.132
- The west and to america in particular. it's coming. it
- 00:21:57.132 --> 00:21:59.935
- Will be a nightmare you will not wake up from. you better
- 00:21:59.935 --> 00:22:02.805
- Wake up now. and we don't have a lot of time.
- 00:22:02.805 --> 00:22:05.974
- >> you've traveled a lot more than i have around the world.
- 00:22:05.974 --> 00:22:09.244
- Have you ever met a muslim or any religious person who comes
- 00:22:09.244 --> 00:22:13.148
- To faith in christ and hates the jewish people?
- 00:22:13.148 --> 00:22:15.584
- >> zero.
- 00:22:15.584 --> 00:22:15.984
- >> exactly.
- 00:22:15.984 --> 00:22:16.819
- >> it's impossible.
- 00:22:16.819 --> 00:22:17.920
- >> there's a solution. and it sounds like this like
- 00:22:17.920 --> 00:22:20.456
- Philosophical and spiritual solution. oh, it's all, you
- 00:22:20.456 --> 00:22:22.791
- Know, at the cross. all you know it is. i've met iranians
- 00:22:22.791 --> 00:22:25.828
- Who've come to faith. they love israel. i've met muslims who
- 00:22:25.828 --> 00:22:28.864
- Are terrorists. they've come to faith. they love israel and
- 00:22:28.864 --> 00:22:30.833
- Never met a single of them comes to faith, denies islam or
- 00:22:30.833 --> 00:22:34.970
- Whatever religion he's coming from, opens the bible and says,
- 00:22:34.970 --> 00:22:37.039
- Nah, i hate the jewish people. it's always the opposite. a
- 00:22:37.039 --> 00:22:40.709
- Supernatural love to the jewish people and the land of israel,
- 00:22:40.709 --> 00:22:43.612
- And a supernatural love across the board. that's really the
- 00:22:43.612 --> 00:22:46.382
- Only solution. you know, if i take this to a place of of
- 00:22:46.382 --> 00:22:49.785
- Optimism versus, you know, just feeling down from this whole
- 00:22:49.785 --> 00:22:52.221
- Conversation, you know, and feeling pain for all the
- 00:22:52.221 --> 00:22:55.157
- Suffering that's in the world, it's all people say, well, what
- 00:22:55.157 --> 00:22:57.926
- Can i do? pray, pray.
- 00:22:57.926 --> 00:22:59.661
- >> this is why i live as much as i can in this spiritual
- 00:22:59.661 --> 00:23:03.198
- Realm, because we know how the game ends. yeah, i know how the
- 00:23:03.198 --> 00:23:06.034
- Game ends, right? i know the good, the good wins in the end.
- 00:23:06.034 --> 00:23:09.738
- I know what happens at the end. and what we need to do is our
- 00:23:09.738 --> 00:23:12.841
- Best to bring that light and that righteousness until the
- 00:23:12.841 --> 00:23:16.945
- Messiah comes. and when he comes, we win. but we have to
- 00:23:16.945 --> 00:23:19.848
- Do all we can in the meantime, and we're going to be beat up.
- 00:23:19.848 --> 00:23:23.919
- We just keep going and keep going and get as many as we can
- 00:23:23.919 --> 00:23:27.189
- To prepare for that. that, that beautiful day that will come.
- 00:23:27.189 --> 00:23:30.159
- And that's where i get my ho
- 00:23:30.159 --> 00:23:33.796
- >> while extremist jihadist movements have sunk roots not
- 00:23:33.796 --> 00:23:36.865
- Only in the middle east, but across north africa and beyond,
- 00:23:36.865 --> 00:23:40.636
- And their reach is testing to see if the free world's courage
- 00:23:40.636 --> 00:23:43.772
- Still exists. our traditions of liberty, of conscience and of
- 00:23:43.772 --> 00:23:48.544
- Equal dignity are all at risk. children are being stolen and
- 00:23:48.544 --> 00:23:53.115
- Scarred, women are being oppressed, and minorities are
- 00:23:53.115 --> 00:23:55.784
- Driven from their homes. so what will it take for the world
- 00:23:55.784 --> 00:23:59.822
- To wake up? must the violence reach your own doorstep? i want
- 00:23:59.822 --> 00:24:03.659
- You to remember that there is a god, and israel is at the
- 00:24:03.659 --> 00:24:08.030
- Center of it all. fighting this evil for the most part, alone.
- 00:24:08.030 --> 00:24:11.700
- So are courageous christians, the likes of tim ballard, where
- 00:24:11.700 --> 00:24:14.636
- Saving lives and bringing the truth to light. don't look away.
- 00:24:14.636 --> 00:24:18.874
- Share what you know. stand with israel in its fight against
- 00:24:18.874 --> 00:24:22.911
- Evil. stand with the vulnerable. stand with the oppressed. we
- 00:24:22.911 --> 00:24:26.482
- Are living in very dangerous times. but guys, god will
- 00:24:26.482 --> 00:24:31.520
- Prevail.
- 00:24:31.520 --> 00:24:41.663
- >> thank you very much, marty. that was an amazing interview
- 00:24:42.865 --> 00:24:46.668
- About a very difficult topic. now, one second before we pray
- 00:24:46.668 --> 00:24:50.873
- Together, we will go to a short commercial break, after which
- 00:24:50.873 --> 00:24:54.943
- We will return and pray for the peace of jerusalem. so don't
- 00:24:54.943 --> 00:24:59.915
- Miss it. a work zone in the gaza strip. being under fire by
- 00:24:59.915 --> 00:25:09.258
- Hamas terrorists. you don't have time to sit and drink your
- 00:25:09.258 --> 00:25:12.394
- Coffee and wake up in the morning and get ready for the
- 00:25:12.394 --> 00:25:15.631
- Day and prepare. so sometimes i woke up at two in the morning
- 00:25:15.631 --> 00:25:18.767
- After an hour and a half of sleep, and you need to wake up
- 00:25:18.767 --> 00:25:23.906
- Immediately and do your job and do it to perfection. or people
- 00:25:23.906 --> 00:25:27.876
- Die.
- 00:25:27.876 --> 00:25:29.044
- >> you literally have your life on the line. you don't know
- 00:25:29.144 --> 00:25:31.713
- What corner you turn and somebody got a gun pointed at
- 00:25:31.713 --> 00:25:37.152
- You.
- 00:25:37.152 --> 00:25:38.353
- >> so in order to wake up, i just took a pill and i really
- 00:25:38.353 --> 00:25:42.891
- Felt the energy levels go up faster. the clarity of mind
- 00:25:42.891 --> 00:25:46.929
- That doesn't usually happen immediately when you wake up in
- 00:25:46.929 --> 00:25:49.364
- The morning. and i don't remember taking much stuff with
- 00:25:49.364 --> 00:25:52.801
- Me into the gaza strip. had my sleeping bag, a flashlight, and
- 00:25:52.801 --> 00:25:57.306
- A vineyard bottle. so that's what i had with me.
- 00:25:57.306 --> 00:26:00.542
- >> you're a young person. you're very healthy, but you
- 00:26:00.542 --> 00:26:03.812
- Still think that vinea was helpful to get you to even a
- 00:26:03.812 --> 00:26:06.481
- Higher level of performance.
- 00:26:06.481 --> 00:26:08.717
- >> it's helping me to exceed my normal abilities. so let's say,
- 00:26:08.717 --> 00:26:12.688
- You know, i'm at 100%. and that puts me at 120. with raising
- 00:26:12.688 --> 00:26:17.459
- Three kids, you need to be sharp to make the right
- 00:26:17.459 --> 00:26:20.762
- Decisions.
- 00:26:20.762 --> 00:26:21.663
- >> raising three kids may be equal to combat.
- 00:26:21.763 --> 00:26:24.666
- >> a lot harder, a lot harder. listen, i'm still taking every
- 00:26:24.666 --> 00:26:27.769
- Day because i want to be there with my kids when they grow old.
- 00:26:27.769 --> 00:26:31.573
- I want to be able to dance at their wedding and carry my kids
- 00:26:31.573 --> 00:26:35.377
- And my grandkids for years to come. and this is the time to
- 00:26:35.377 --> 00:26:38.313
- Start. i mean, when you're young.
- 00:26:38.313 --> 00:26:43.997
- Start. i mean, when you're young.
- 00:26:43.997 --> 00:26:46.795

- Guys, remember this is a spiritual war. there is no
- 00:27:07.015 --> 00:27:11.487
- Other reason in the world for all these countries to hate
- 00:27:11.487 --> 00:27:14.389
- Israel and the jewish people so much. israel is a living symbol
- 00:27:14.389 --> 00:27:20.362
- That god is performing unimaginable miracles in modern
- 00:27:20.362 --> 00:27:25.434
- Day, that god is faithful to his promises to the people of
- 00:27:25.434 --> 00:27:29.538
- Israel. in biblical days, thousands of years ago. and
- 00:27:29.538 --> 00:27:33.809
- He's faithful to his promises to you, to me, to all of us.
- 00:27:33.809 --> 00:27:37.412
- The enemy cannot stand that. so that's why it is trying to
- 00:27:37.412 --> 00:27:41.283
- Attack the jewish state. but we won't let that hap let's
- 00:27:41.283 --> 00:27:46.288
- Unite in prayer. let's pray for wisdom to our leaders. let's
- 00:27:46.288 --> 00:27:50.325
- Pray for the idf soldiers that are preparing to enter gaza
- 00:27:50.325 --> 00:27:53.529
- City. it's very dangerous. let's pray for all the innocent
- 00:27:53.529 --> 00:27:58.500
- Lives that are affected by these terrorist regimes. and
- 00:27:58.500 --> 00:28:01.804
- Let's keep praying for the peace of jerusalem.
- 00:28:01.804 --> 00:28:01.804
