Stakelbeck Tonight | Erick Stakelbeck: December 16, 2025 | Stakelbeck Tonight | December 16, 2025

Welcome to stakelbeck tonight.
00:00:17.540 --> 00:00:19.075
I'm erick stakelbeck.
00:00:19.075 --> 00:00:20.110
And if you think america is immune
00:00:20.110 --> 00:00:22.412
To the outbreak of anti-semitic madness
00:00:22.412 --> 00:00:25.081
That we are seeing around the world.
00:00:25.081 --> 00:00:26.883
Think again.
00:00:26.883 --> 00:00:28.118
In the wake of sunday's hanukkah massacre in sydney, australia,
00:00:28.118 --> 00:00:31.354
Where a pair of islamic terrorists murdered 15 people.
00:00:31.354 --> 00:00:35.358
Anti-semites were out in force in new york
00:00:35.358 --> 00:00:38.595
City on monday night, the second night of hanukkah.
00:00:38.595 --> 00:00:41.831
Two men violently assaulted a group of orthodox jews
00:00:41.831 --> 00:00:45.301
On the new york city subway because they were jews.
00:00:45.301 --> 00:00:49.272
Folks, we've seen many incidents
00:00:49.272 --> 00:00:50.640
Like this in america since the october 7th attacks.
00:00:50.640 --> 00:00:53.910
The demonic jew hatred is no longer just overseas.
00:00:53.910 --> 00:00:58.214
It's on our streets.
00:00:58.214 --> 00:01:00.216
And just as notorious israel hater zoran
00:01:00.216 --> 00:01:03.786
Mamdani is set to be sworn in as new york city's next mayor.
00:01:03.786 --> 00:01:07.924
It's a perilous time for the jewish people,
00:01:07.924 --> 00:01:10.293
And we're joined now from jerusalem
00:01:10.293 --> 00:01:12.228
By our good friend marty shoshoni,
00:01:12.228 --> 00:01:14.731
Co-host of the great tbn show boots on the ground.
00:01:14.731 --> 00:01:18.101
To get the view on all of this
00:01:18.101 --> 00:01:19.669
From the world's one and only jewish state.
00:01:19.669 --> 00:01:23.206
Marty, always great to see you, my friend.
00:01:23.206 --> 00:01:25.008
And we have this anti-semitic, of course, this
00:01:25.008 --> 00:01:28.111
Anti-semitic insanity. i wish we had better news
00:01:28.111 --> 00:01:30.747
To share here, but you're in israel.
00:01:30.747 --> 00:01:33.116
You're in the world's one and only jewish state.
00:01:33.116 --> 00:01:35.118
You're joining us right now from just outside jerusalem.
00:01:35.118 --> 00:01:37.820
What's the view in israel of events we see unfolding?
00:01:37.820 --> 00:01:41.491
Australia on sunday,
00:01:41.491 --> 00:01:43.092
New york city last night, the list goes on.
00:01:43.092 --> 00:01:46.696
Across the western world, this anti-semitic madness
00:01:46.696 --> 00:01:49.365
Is intensifying. how do israelis see this?
00:01:49.365 --> 00:01:52.368
Well, it's been a very upsetting couple of days for israelis.
00:01:53.536 --> 00:01:56.573
Australia was rough.
00:01:56.573 --> 00:01:58.074
Australia was very, very rough.
00:01:58.074 --> 00:01:59.576
And it was very much a jewish a celebration.
00:01:59.576 --> 00:02:02.078
And to see the really
00:02:02.078 --> 00:02:03.680
Lackluster and unclear responses from the australian government
00:02:03.680 --> 00:02:07.750
Then to learn that according to what we know, mossad,
00:02:07.750 --> 00:02:10.853
Including the israeli president,
00:02:10.853 --> 00:02:12.455
Warned the australian government several times about exactly
00:02:12.455 --> 00:02:15.658
This type of attack
00:02:15.658 --> 00:02:16.893
And then the news of who these people were and how ineffective
00:02:16.893 --> 00:02:20.396
The australian government was, was in stopping
00:02:20.396 --> 00:02:22.232
This islamic attack on a jewish event of civilians,
00:02:22.232 --> 00:02:26.436
You know, on a high holiday for the jewish people.
00:02:26.436 --> 00:02:28.738
It's very, very upsetting.
00:02:28.738 --> 00:02:30.039
And i want to say something else.
00:02:30.039 --> 00:02:31.040
It's it's happening when we're not expecting
00:02:31.040 --> 00:02:33.109
To see anti-semitic attacks.
00:02:33.109 --> 00:02:34.644
It's happening when we have a cease fire agreement.
00:02:34.644 --> 00:02:36.813
It's happening
00:02:36.813 --> 00:02:37.513
When israel has stopped the war,
00:02:37.513 --> 00:02:38.615
Even though we were playing a war of self-defense.
00:02:38.615 --> 00:02:41.584
It's it happens when israel is working
00:02:41.584 --> 00:02:43.820
With the american government
00:02:43.820 --> 00:02:45.388
To try and stabilize this region,
00:02:45.388 --> 00:02:47.257
And then these series of anti-semitic attacks happen.
00:02:47.257 --> 00:02:49.492
And for israelis, this is just one of many more attacks.
00:02:49.492 --> 00:02:52.829
They've happened throughout europe throughout the summer
00:02:52.829 --> 00:02:55.098
And the fall leading into these events.
00:02:55.098 --> 00:02:57.100
There's been an enormous uptick in anti-semitic attacks
00:02:57.100 --> 00:02:59.602
Going all the way back to june, when israel and the us,
00:02:59.602 --> 00:03:03.172
Carried out the attack against iran.
00:03:03.172 --> 00:03:04.741
So this isn't news, but it was yet
00:03:04.741 --> 00:03:06.542
Another tragic event from our perspective.
00:03:06.542 --> 00:03:08.845
Yeah. and the world says again and again, marty.
00:03:08.845 --> 00:03:10.880
Well, if israel would only lay down
00:03:10.880 --> 00:03:13.082
Its arms and agree
00:03:13.082 --> 00:03:14.217
To a ceasefire and stop the fight against hamas, etc.,
00:03:14.217 --> 00:03:18.421
Then we'll have peace. it's israel's fault.
00:03:18.421 --> 00:03:21.057
But that isn't the case as you just laid out.
00:03:21.057 --> 00:03:23.726
It's anything but at the root, marty.
00:03:23.726 --> 00:03:26.429
Look, anti-semitism, the world's oldest hatred.
00:03:26.429 --> 00:03:29.299
Is this a spiritual battle that we're locked in right now?
00:03:29.299 --> 00:03:31.668
In your view?
00:03:31.668 --> 00:03:33.202
Absolutely.
00:03:33.536 --> 00:03:34.504
I mean, the world has been spreading
00:03:34.504 --> 00:03:35.638
This lie for, for years.
00:03:35.638 --> 00:03:37.273
And they're saying it's not anti-semitism,
00:03:37.273 --> 00:03:39.409
It's anti-zionism.
00:03:39.409 --> 00:03:40.576
We only have a problem with the policies
00:03:40.576 --> 00:03:42.178
Of the state of israel, with what your government is doing.
00:03:42.178 --> 00:03:44.380
If you just stop that, all these lies
00:03:44.380 --> 00:03:46.382
That they're spreading, then they'll be no trouble.
00:03:46.382 --> 00:03:48.217
And we've seen time and time again
00:03:48.217 --> 00:03:49.552
That that's a i mean, that's a fallacy.
00:03:49.552 --> 00:03:51.454
It's a complete lie time and time again.
00:03:51.454 --> 00:03:54.023
It is spiritually rooted.
00:03:54.023 --> 00:03:55.692
It's a it's a diabolical hatred towards the jewish people.
00:03:55.692 --> 00:03:58.861
And it happens especially with the jewish
00:03:58.861 --> 00:04:00.997
People are successful, not one where the victims.
00:04:00.997 --> 00:04:03.633
It happens when we're successful.
00:04:03.633 --> 00:04:05.301
June was the amazing historical attack
00:04:05.301 --> 00:04:08.204
Against the iranian nuclear facilities.
00:04:08.204 --> 00:04:09.706
Midnight hammer operation with the united states.
00:04:09.706 --> 00:04:12.408
And there was an immediate response
00:04:12.408 --> 00:04:13.743
Throughout europe of anti-semitic
00:04:13.743 --> 00:04:15.278
Attacks against jews and an uptick of online,
00:04:15.278 --> 00:04:19.215
Hateful rhetoric against the jewish people.
00:04:19.215 --> 00:04:21.217
So this isn't new, but as you said,
00:04:21.217 --> 00:04:22.952
This is very much spiritually rooted.
00:04:22.952 --> 00:04:24.687
I goes back to a biblical, war against god, against god's plan,
00:04:24.687 --> 00:04:29.459
Against the bible's
00:04:29.459 --> 00:04:30.560
Plan for the restoration of the people of israel
00:04:30.560 --> 00:04:32.662
And what god's trying to do in this country.
00:04:32.662 --> 00:04:34.664
And we see it here in israel.
00:04:34.664 --> 00:04:35.832
Believe me, people in this country
00:04:35.832 --> 00:04:37.367
Know, especially in this holiday season,
00:04:37.367 --> 00:04:39.535
It's light against dark.
00:04:39.535 --> 00:04:40.803
It's good against evil.
00:04:40.803 --> 00:04:42.405
It's our forces that are trying to bring good to the world and,
00:04:42.405 --> 00:04:45.408
Reestablish what god is trying to do
00:04:45.408 --> 00:04:46.943
In this world against the forces of evil.
00:04:46.943 --> 00:04:49.045
I mean, it's as plain as that.
00:04:49.045 --> 00:04:51.013
And it's no surprise to us.
00:04:51.013 --> 00:04:52.715
The people are fighting again against what god's trying to do,
00:04:52.715 --> 00:04:55.351
And they're using the jews as a target for that.
00:04:55.351 --> 00:04:57.153
But again, it's it's not just the jews,
00:04:57.153 --> 00:04:59.155
It's judeo-christian values that are being targeted.
00:04:59.155 --> 00:05:01.657
And it happened to the jews first.
00:05:01.657 --> 00:05:03.259
It's next for the christians.
00:05:03.259 --> 00:05:04.260
Look at what's
00:05:04.260 --> 00:05:05.328
Been going on in the christmas markets across europe.
00:05:05.328 --> 00:05:07.096
You have to barricade their christmas markets
00:05:07.096 --> 00:05:09.198
For fear of people ramming people in those celebrations.
00:05:09.198 --> 00:05:12.301
These are christian celebrations,
00:05:12.301 --> 00:05:13.803
And they're fearing minorities within their countries
00:05:13.803 --> 00:05:16.272
Who could possibly attack them.
00:05:16.272 --> 00:05:17.373
So this is very much no longer just a jewish issue.
00:05:17.373 --> 00:05:20.309
It's just isolated to the jews.
00:05:20.309 --> 00:05:21.711
It's about to spread also to other countries
00:05:21.711 --> 00:05:24.180
As we've seen around the world.
00:05:24.180 --> 00:05:25.548
Marty, great points all around, my friend.
00:05:25.548 --> 00:05:27.483
He's shifting gears a bit to a few hours
00:05:27.483 --> 00:05:29.519
North of where you're standing right
00:05:29.519 --> 00:05:30.853
Now, the israel lebanon border.
00:05:30.853 --> 00:05:33.289
There are continued rumblings about a possible new major
00:05:33.289 --> 00:05:37.527
Conflict between israel and hezbollah,
00:05:37.527 --> 00:05:39.729
Because hezbollah continues to try to rearm.
00:05:39.729 --> 00:05:43.366
I'm sure with iranian help, marty,
00:05:43.366 --> 00:05:45.501
What is the state of play in the north right now?
00:05:45.501 --> 00:05:48.304
Yeah, it's a very, very tense moment that we have over here.
00:05:49.472 --> 00:05:51.741
I mean, again, the trump white house
00:05:51.741 --> 00:05:53.609
Has done an incredible amount of work
00:05:53.609 --> 00:05:55.578
In trying to set the ground for the next phase in this region,
00:05:55.578 --> 00:05:58.514
Which is stabilizing first gaza, then lebanon,
00:05:58.514 --> 00:06:01.117
Then syria, and by extension,
00:06:01.117 --> 00:06:02.552
Then abraham accords 2.0, which is a bigger story here.
00:06:02.552 --> 00:06:05.955
The saudis and then, diminishing the effect of the iranians.
00:06:05.955 --> 00:06:08.991
But yeah, i ran iran, invested tens of billions of dollars
00:06:08.991 --> 00:06:12.328
Into the hezbollah terrorist organization
00:06:12.328 --> 00:06:14.363
Before this war broke out.
00:06:14.363 --> 00:06:15.565
They were close to 100,000 people have a fighting force.
00:06:15.565 --> 00:06:18.868
And israel knocked that number down to roughly, let's say, 20
00:06:18.868 --> 00:06:22.438
To 30,000 active members of hezbollah at the moment,
00:06:22.438 --> 00:06:25.541
Still a very substantial force.
00:06:25.541 --> 00:06:27.276
And they're not planning to go anywhere anytime soon
00:06:27.276 --> 00:06:29.612
Unless they're forced to.
00:06:29.612 --> 00:06:30.780
So the big move is
00:06:30.780 --> 00:06:32.181
Is strengthens the lebanese government
00:06:32.181 --> 00:06:34.183
At the expense of hezbollah
00:06:34.183 --> 00:06:35.818
By giving them the funds, the training, the money.
00:06:35.818 --> 00:06:38.254
But money really is the bottom line over here.
00:06:38.254 --> 00:06:40.623
Right now, hezbollah terrorists are paid about triple
00:06:40.623 --> 00:06:43.326
What the lebanese army soldiers are paid.
00:06:43.326 --> 00:06:45.561
And that's sort of a deciding factor,
00:06:45.561 --> 00:06:46.896
Especially in southern lebanon.
00:06:46.896 --> 00:06:48.698
And again, they're very, very vicious
00:06:48.698 --> 00:06:50.766
Force, heavily funded, heavily trained,
00:06:50.766 --> 00:06:54.036
Heavily, ideologically motivated to fight against israel.
00:06:54.036 --> 00:06:58.040
They're not going away without a fight.
00:06:58.040 --> 00:06:59.175
And that's why we continue to be strong on that border
00:06:59.175 --> 00:07:02.044
On the syrian border, and of course, still in gaza.
00:07:02.044 --> 00:07:04.380
Monty. great breakdown.
00:07:04.380 --> 00:07:05.348
We know you were watching that
00:07:05.348 --> 00:07:06.616
Situation very, very closely, folks. be sure to watch monty
00:07:06.616 --> 00:07:09.185
Every thursday night right here on tbn.
00:07:09.185 --> 00:07:11.087
Boots on the ground from israel with his great co-host,
00:07:11.087 --> 00:07:13.656
Our friend jair pinto, of course.
00:07:13.656 --> 00:07:15.491
Subscribe to our youtube channel, tbn israel marty,
00:07:15.491 --> 00:07:19.262
Continue to do the great work, my friend.
00:07:19.262 --> 00:07:21.130
Happy hanukkah, god bless.
00:07:21.130 --> 00:07:22.565
We'll see you again soon.
00:07:22.565 --> 00:07:23.799
And coming up after the break, we stay in israel.
00:07:23.799 --> 00:07:26.102
We're heading over to tel aviv
00:07:26.102 --> 00:07:28.104
For a break down, a little bit more on iran, a little bit
00:07:28.104 --> 00:07:30.740
More on anti-semitism.
00:07:30.740 --> 00:07:32.041
Why it all matters to you.
00:07:32.041 --> 00:07:34.143
That's next. stick around.
00:07:34.143 --> 00:07:38.001
But. welcome back to stakelbeck tonight.
00:07:38.001 --> 00:07:42.987
Even as deadly anti-semitic attacks intensify worldwide,
00:07:42.987 --> 00:07:47.659
Global pressure is mounting for a palestinian state
00:07:47.659 --> 00:07:51.763
That would only ignite, not end, the so-called global intifada.
00:07:51.763 --> 00:07:57.001
To help us break it all down, we're joined by our friend
00:07:57.001 --> 00:07:59.137
Emily schrader, journalist,
00:07:59.137 --> 00:08:00.772
Human rights activist, and host of the axis of truth podcast.
00:08:00.772 --> 00:08:04.342
Emily is one of the most outspoken voices exposing
00:08:04.342 --> 00:08:07.612
Anti-semitism and radical islamic ideology worldwide.
00:08:07.612 --> 00:08:11.382
Emily, always great to see you.
00:08:11.382 --> 00:08:12.784
Happy hanukkah.
00:08:12.784 --> 00:08:13.818
And you know, we started hanukkah off on sunday.
00:08:13.818 --> 00:08:16.254
Of course, with this massacre in australia,
00:08:16.254 --> 00:08:18.323
15 people slaughtered by a pair of islamic terrorists.
00:08:18.323 --> 00:08:21.659
And emily, it seems to me
00:08:21.659 --> 00:08:22.994
That attacks should have never happened.
00:08:22.994 --> 00:08:24.629
One of those attackers was known to australian authorities.
00:08:24.629 --> 00:08:28.333
How is this climate of anti-semitism?
00:08:28.333 --> 00:08:31.135
That's that's been allowed, permitted
00:08:31.135 --> 00:08:33.271
In many ways in australia and in europe.
00:08:33.271 --> 00:08:36.174
How is that made attacks like we saw on sunday possible?
00:08:36.174 --> 00:08:40.912
Well, you know, thanks for having me.
00:08:41.713 --> 00:08:42.814
It's always a pleasure to be here with you.
00:08:42.814 --> 00:08:44.649
I wish it was under better circumstances,
00:08:44.649 --> 00:08:46.718
But nonetheless, we are where we are.
00:08:46.718 --> 00:08:49.020
And you're correct.
00:08:49.020 --> 00:08:49.854
I mean, i think that the,
00:08:49.854 --> 00:08:51.656
The situation we're in is abysmal
00:08:51.656 --> 00:08:53.558
Both in europe and canada and australia and frankly,
00:08:53.558 --> 00:08:56.961
Also parts of the united states when it comes to this issue.
00:08:56.961 --> 00:09:00.398
And a huge reason for that is because of these protests
00:09:00.398 --> 00:09:03.701
That we've seen.
00:09:03.701 --> 00:09:04.836
And i don't mean protests of people who are worried
00:09:04.836 --> 00:09:06.504
About the well-being of palestinians.
00:09:06.504 --> 00:09:08.206
There's nothing wrong with that.
00:09:08.206 --> 00:09:09.774
What's wrong with what's happening
00:09:09.774 --> 00:09:11.342
Is that these protests are not pro-palestinian.
00:09:11.342 --> 00:09:13.711
They're not worried about the people of gaza.
00:09:13.711 --> 00:09:15.647
They're not advocating for anything productive.
00:09:15.647 --> 00:09:18.049
They are campaigns of hatred against the jewish community.
00:09:18.049 --> 00:09:21.753
And we've seen it time and time again.
00:09:21.753 --> 00:09:23.621
Calls for globalizing the intifada are exactly what
00:09:23.621 --> 00:09:27.291
We saw manifest in australia
00:09:27.291 --> 00:09:29.594
On the first day of hanukkah with the bondi beach shooting.
00:09:29.594 --> 00:09:32.563
This is the byproduct of that ideology that has been allowed
00:09:32.563 --> 00:09:36.901
By multiple western governments to proliferate
00:09:36.901 --> 00:09:40.038
Across the world, and something has to be done to stop it.
00:09:40.038 --> 00:09:43.141
Emily, no doubt.
00:09:43.141 --> 00:09:44.208
And you're out there trying to stop it every day.
00:09:44.208 --> 00:09:45.510
You're traveling literally
00:09:45.510 --> 00:09:46.611
Around the world, and you're sounding
00:09:46.611 --> 00:09:48.746
The alarm is part of this, emily.
00:09:48.746 --> 00:09:51.049
This recognition in a place like australia
00:09:51.049 --> 00:09:53.818
Of a palestinian state, the unilateral recognition
00:09:53.818 --> 00:09:56.788
Against the wishes of israel and against, by the way,
00:09:56.788 --> 00:09:58.890
The wishes of the united states
00:09:58.890 --> 00:10:00.491
In recognizing a palestinian state and effectively rewarding,
00:10:00.491 --> 00:10:04.796
Hamas and
00:10:05.096 --> 00:10:06.230
Gazans for the october 7th massacre.
00:10:06.230 --> 00:10:09.333
Well, it certainly doesn't help.
00:10:09.333 --> 00:10:10.635
This is something that,
00:10:10.635 --> 00:10:11.869
As a byproduct, in the aftermath of the october 7th massacre,
00:10:11.869 --> 00:10:16.207
For some reason, western governments who have a
00:10:16.207 --> 00:10:18.676
Gross misunderstanding of this conflict, in many cases
00:10:18.676 --> 00:10:21.779
Thought would be somehow a solution.
00:10:21.779 --> 00:10:24.282
But the question remains
00:10:24.282 --> 00:10:25.583
Who's going to lead the palestinian people?
00:10:25.583 --> 00:10:27.585
There is no coherent leadership.
00:10:27.585 --> 00:10:29.120
There is no figure even that's advocating peace or dialog
00:10:29.120 --> 00:10:33.091
Or any kind of two state solution, something
00:10:33.091 --> 00:10:35.626
Which they love to promote, which they love to talk about.
00:10:35.626 --> 00:10:38.129
And yet, if you look at the polling
00:10:38.129 --> 00:10:40.031
Of what palestinians want, it's not a two state solution.
00:10:40.031 --> 00:10:43.367
So this is really a western fantasy, a delusion.
00:10:43.367 --> 00:10:46.437
And as much as i would love for
00:10:46.437 --> 00:10:48.473
That to be the reality in palestinian society, it's not.
00:10:48.473 --> 00:10:52.543
And anyone who says otherwise is just kidding themselves.
00:10:52.543 --> 00:10:55.246
And further allowing extremists
00:10:55.246 --> 00:10:57.849
To have more power over this conflict
00:10:57.849 --> 00:10:59.984
And not just over this conflict, as we've seen,
00:10:59.984 --> 00:11:02.320
But also in the streets of australia,
00:11:02.320 --> 00:11:04.255
In the streets of the uk,
00:11:04.255 --> 00:11:05.723
In the streets of new york city, where we saw another incident
00:11:05.723 --> 00:11:08.626
Just today of orthodox jews being assaulted violently
00:11:08.626 --> 00:11:12.530
On the new york city subway.
00:11:12.530 --> 00:11:14.332
Yeah, emily, great points all around.
00:11:14.332 --> 00:11:16.667
And europe is in a very dangerous place
00:11:16.667 --> 00:11:19.737
In the western world writ large.
00:11:19.737 --> 00:11:21.072
Australia, canada as well.
00:11:21.072 --> 00:11:23.374
Where do you see this heading?
00:11:23.374 --> 00:11:25.443
Nowhere.
00:11:25.710 --> 00:11:26.277
Good.
00:11:26.277 --> 00:11:26.711
Right now, if
00:11:26.711 --> 00:11:27.912
We continue to have weak, feckless leadership in the west,
00:11:27.912 --> 00:11:30.181
I think that's the biggest factor here.
00:11:30.181 --> 00:11:31.816
Tolerating the intolerant.
00:11:31.816 --> 00:11:34.685
That's exactly right.
00:11:34.685 --> 00:11:35.686
The tolerance of intolerance
00:11:35.686 --> 00:11:37.188
Is is the theme of, i would say, the last two years.
00:11:37.188 --> 00:11:40.191
And it's very, very dangerous, particularly the left
00:11:40.191 --> 00:11:42.994
Leaning governments that we've seen.
00:11:42.994 --> 00:11:44.495
They've been significantly worse because they conflate muslim
00:11:44.495 --> 00:11:48.332
Brotherhood islamist ideology with islamophobia.
00:11:48.332 --> 00:11:52.703
So cracking down against extremism,
00:11:52.703 --> 00:11:54.772
They say, is islamophobia, and that is coordinated
00:11:54.772 --> 00:11:57.708
By the muslim brotherhood.
00:11:57.708 --> 00:11:59.010
This is something that they have taught
00:11:59.010 --> 00:12:00.711
That they've lobbied for in these governments.
00:12:00.711 --> 00:12:02.880
And that's extremely dangerous,
00:12:02.880 --> 00:12:04.715
Because if we actually look
00:12:04.715 --> 00:12:06.017
At the manifestation of this ideology,
00:12:06.017 --> 00:12:08.052
Not only does it threaten christian communities
00:12:08.052 --> 00:12:10.621
And jewish communities around the world,
00:12:10.621 --> 00:12:12.757
It also threatens muslim communities.
00:12:12.757 --> 00:12:14.926
Your average muslim individual who just wants to live in peace,
00:12:14.926 --> 00:12:18.496
Including in the united states, including in australia,
00:12:18.496 --> 00:12:21.065
They too are threatened by this ideology.
00:12:21.065 --> 00:12:23.534
And you don't need to look any further
00:12:23.534 --> 00:12:25.269
Than the arab muslim nations that have outlawed
00:12:25.269 --> 00:12:28.172
The muslim brotherhood.
00:12:28.172 --> 00:12:29.273
So why hasn't the united kingdom?
00:12:29.273 --> 00:12:31.542
Why hasn't australia?
00:12:31.542 --> 00:12:33.144
This is something that should have been done years ago.
00:12:33.144 --> 00:12:35.880
Emily. so well said.
00:12:35.880 --> 00:12:37.415
Hey, shifting gears a bit, you are a foremost advocate
00:12:37.415 --> 00:12:40.918
For the people of iran, the women of iran.
00:12:40.918 --> 00:12:43.921
We're a few months past
00:12:43.921 --> 00:12:45.156
The 12 day war, of course, the destruction
00:12:45.156 --> 00:12:47.091
Of iran's nuclear weapons facilities.
00:12:47.091 --> 00:12:49.060
What is the state of play?
00:12:49.060 --> 00:12:50.461
Right now in iran and the state of the regime?
00:12:50.461 --> 00:12:53.698
Is the regime still on borrowed time?
00:12:53.698 --> 00:12:56.033
Are they strengthening?
00:12:56.033 --> 00:12:57.368
How do you see it?
00:12:57.368 --> 00:12:58.970
Well, i think it's both things at the same time.
00:12:58.970 --> 00:13:01.105
And the reason for that is the internal pressure is
00:13:01.105 --> 00:13:03.774
And has certainly grown since the 12 day war.
00:13:03.774 --> 00:13:06.777
Tehran is running out of water completely.
00:13:06.777 --> 00:13:08.846
The economic situation is abysmal.
00:13:08.846 --> 00:13:10.781
Inflation is at record highs.
00:13:10.781 --> 00:13:12.783
It's disastrous inside of iran.
00:13:12.783 --> 00:13:15.019
We see protests and strikes
00:13:15.019 --> 00:13:16.654
Popping up, although small scale still.
00:13:16.654 --> 00:13:19.223
However, on the external front, we see that
00:13:19.223 --> 00:13:21.926
The islamic republic continues
00:13:21.926 --> 00:13:23.628
To pour billions of dollars into their terror proxies.
00:13:23.628 --> 00:13:27.064
The last thing to go when it comes to the islamic
00:13:27.064 --> 00:13:29.467
Republic will be their support for terrorist organizations.
00:13:29.467 --> 00:13:32.904
We've seen them in the last year
00:13:32.904 --> 00:13:34.238
Alone restock and rebuild hezbollah.
00:13:34.238 --> 00:13:36.574
They've sent approximately
00:13:36.574 --> 00:13:37.642
$1 billion to the terror group in lebanon,
00:13:37.642 --> 00:13:40.645
And they're working hard to fund the houthis as well
00:13:40.645 --> 00:13:43.848
In yemen, as well as other terror proxies.
00:13:43.848 --> 00:13:46.117
Even some talk of building up new proxies in sudan
00:13:46.117 --> 00:13:49.387
And other places.
00:13:49.387 --> 00:13:50.354
We've also seen them
00:13:50.354 --> 00:13:51.522
Increase the firepower for proxies of the regime in iraq.
00:13:51.522 --> 00:13:55.159
So this is a very,
00:13:55.159 --> 00:13:55.960
Very dangerous situation,
00:13:55.960 --> 00:13:57.862
And something does need to be done about this as well.
00:13:57.862 --> 00:14:00.831
It's very clear
00:14:00.831 --> 00:14:01.666
Evil is relentless,
00:14:01.666 --> 00:14:03.434
And the iranian regime certainly fits that bill.
00:14:03.434 --> 00:14:05.603
They're going to try to continue to rearm.
00:14:05.603 --> 00:14:07.071
Which brings us to the last question.
00:14:07.071 --> 00:14:08.406
Only about 30s left.
00:14:08.406 --> 00:14:10.474
Phase two of this gaza peace plan.
00:14:10.474 --> 00:14:12.877
It requires hamas to disarm.
00:14:12.877 --> 00:14:14.679
Do you see that happening anytime soon?
00:14:14.679 --> 00:14:16.547
Any time soon?
00:14:16.547 --> 00:14:17.481
I'll answer in less than 30.
00:14:17.481 --> 00:14:18.849
I don't see that happening any time soon,
00:14:18.849 --> 00:14:20.618
But i just want to go back to where we started.
00:14:20.618 --> 00:14:22.386
And that is that this conflict about the antisemitism
00:14:22.386 --> 00:14:24.822
And the attacks we're seeing on jews.
00:14:24.822 --> 00:14:26.490
It's not a jewish problem.
00:14:26.490 --> 00:14:27.925
It's a problem
00:14:27.925 --> 00:14:28.826
Of all western civilization. and we see
00:14:28.826 --> 00:14:30.528
The christian community being targeted as well.
00:14:30.528 --> 00:14:32.630
Multiple christmas markets targeted as they were last year.
00:14:32.630 --> 00:14:35.766
Germany, poland. a plot was just fired.
00:14:35.766 --> 00:14:38.302
Other european countries have faced these threats
00:14:38.302 --> 00:14:40.538
From isis and other terror groups.
00:14:40.538 --> 00:14:42.340
This is a war against judeo christian values
00:14:42.340 --> 00:14:45.142
And we need to stand together, united against it.
00:14:45.142 --> 00:14:47.878
Amen. emily.
00:14:47.878 --> 00:14:48.779
So well said.
00:14:48.779 --> 00:14:49.680
And israel is the first line of defense
00:14:49.680 --> 00:14:51.315
For western civilization.
00:14:51.315 --> 00:14:52.516
The birthplace of that very civilization.
00:14:52.516 --> 00:14:54.986
Emily, great job.
00:14:54.986 --> 00:14:55.786
As always,
00:14:55.786 --> 00:14:56.954
Be sure to follow emily on instagram across social media.
00:14:56.954 --> 00:14:59.890
Youtube. the axis of truth podcast.
00:14:59.890 --> 00:15:02.159
Emily. happy hanukkah.
00:15:02.159 --> 00:15:03.094
God bless. we'll see you again soon.
00:15:03.094 --> 00:15:04.729
And coming up after the break,
00:15:04.729 --> 00:15:06.697
Emily mentioned the muslim brotherhood.
00:15:06.697 --> 00:15:09.367
Well, guess what the muslim brotherhood
00:15:09.367 --> 00:15:11.202
Is on borrowed time here in the state of texas
00:15:11.202 --> 00:15:14.138
Where i'm sitting right now.
00:15:14.138 --> 00:15:15.373
We'll get the inside story of some very important legislation
00:15:15.373 --> 00:15:18.943
After the break. stick around.
00:15:18.943 --> 00:15:23.002
After the break. stick around.
00:15:23.002 --> 00:15:25.417
Welcome back to stakelbeck tonight.
00:15:26.184 --> 00:15:27.886
The barbarians are not just at the gates.
00:15:27.886 --> 00:15:31.023
They are inside them.
00:15:31.023 --> 00:15:32.791
That's why we were very glad to be joined
00:15:32.791 --> 00:15:34.326
By texas state representative nate schatz.
00:15:34.326 --> 00:15:36.428
Line a leading conservative voice in the texas legislature,
00:15:36.428 --> 00:15:40.065
A member of president trump's national faith advisory board,
00:15:40.065 --> 00:15:43.335
And someone
00:15:43.335 --> 00:15:44.536
On the front lines of the fight to protect american values
00:15:44.536 --> 00:15:48.040
And secure our states against foreign influence.
00:15:48.040 --> 00:15:51.610
Take a look.
00:15:51.943 --> 00:15:53.812
Nate, great to see you.
00:15:53.812 --> 00:15:55.013
Oh. it's honored. i'm honored to be on honored.
00:15:55.013 --> 00:15:57.449
Everything y'all are doing is amazing.
00:15:57.449 --> 00:15:58.850
Look, we need more truth tellers in media today.
00:15:58.850 --> 00:16:01.653
And so i'm just grateful to you
00:16:01.653 --> 00:16:03.388
When you are a truth teller in the texas state legislature.
00:16:03.388 --> 00:16:06.458
And we've talked a bunch about the muslim brotherhood
00:16:06.458 --> 00:16:08.994
Recently on the show
00:16:08.994 --> 00:16:10.062
And this designation, greg abbott just handed down
00:16:10.062 --> 00:16:12.064
Last month, you played an integral role in that.
00:16:12.064 --> 00:16:14.800
Tell us more about the importance
00:16:14.800 --> 00:16:16.168
Of designating the muslim brotherhood
00:16:16.168 --> 00:16:17.736
And the council on american-islamic relations
00:16:17.736 --> 00:16:20.338
As foreign terrorist organizations.
00:16:20.338 --> 00:16:22.240
Now, you're right.
00:16:22.240 --> 00:16:23.175
It is so important.
00:16:23.175 --> 00:16:24.309
And i'd like to think that we're just
00:16:24.309 --> 00:16:26.311
Getting started here in texas.
00:16:26.311 --> 00:16:28.013
In fact, i would say we've done the bare minimum.
00:16:28.013 --> 00:16:31.583
And i'm very proud of our governor.
00:16:31.583 --> 00:16:32.684
I'm proud that we were able to do what we did.
00:16:32.684 --> 00:16:34.453
But this last session, when we were in the middle of a session,
00:16:34.453 --> 00:16:37.522
The battle on the house floor, that led to this incredible,
00:16:37.522 --> 00:16:41.293
Really just breakthrough for the state of texas
00:16:41.293 --> 00:16:43.228
That i think will be legislation that will go nationwide was
00:16:43.228 --> 00:16:46.298
We were actually just
00:16:46.298 --> 00:16:47.365
Focusing on banning china from owning texas land.
00:16:47.365 --> 00:16:50.469
And in the process of doing that,
00:16:50.469 --> 00:16:52.237
We recognized, wait a second,
00:16:52.237 --> 00:16:53.839
If we're going to ban one of our foreign enemies
00:16:53.839 --> 00:16:57.109
From owning texas land, we might as well ban
00:16:57.109 --> 00:16:59.211
All of our foreign enemies from owning texas land
00:16:59.211 --> 00:17:01.646
And looking forward in,
00:17:01.646 --> 00:17:03.448
Into what could be
00:17:03.448 --> 00:17:04.883
We discovered, well, that could be the muslim
00:17:04.883 --> 00:17:06.651
Brotherhood, that could be trained arugula
00:17:06.651 --> 00:17:08.620
That could be,
00:17:08.620 --> 00:17:09.754
A foreign terrorist threat, that is currently unknown
00:17:09.754 --> 00:17:12.657
Due to our open border crisis over the last four years,
00:17:12.657 --> 00:17:15.694
That president trump
00:17:16.161 --> 00:17:17.062
Very gracious, gracefully has stepped up
00:17:17.062 --> 00:17:19.464
And finally helped secure our border.
00:17:19.464 --> 00:17:21.500
And so i offered the amendment that just gave the governor
00:17:21.500 --> 00:17:24.769
The authority to designate any, group
00:17:24.769 --> 00:17:28.006
That, is a threat to our texas, safety,
00:17:28.006 --> 00:17:31.776
Whether it's foreign or domestic.
00:17:31.776 --> 00:17:33.912
He could designate them as a forest terrorist threat.
00:17:33.912 --> 00:17:36.248
And by designating them, they can not only no longer
00:17:36.248 --> 00:17:39.217
Own texas land, but we get to start taking back
00:17:39.217 --> 00:17:42.721
Some of this land that's going to be used.
00:17:42.721 --> 00:17:44.990
And their words for sharia cities,
00:17:44.990 --> 00:17:47.292
Which is a massive threat.
00:17:47.292 --> 00:17:48.760
In fact, i would just say islam is truly, at this point,
00:17:48.760 --> 00:17:53.064
One of the greatest threats to our national security
00:17:53.064 --> 00:17:56.268
As a nation.
00:17:56.268 --> 00:17:57.202
And definitely one of our greatest threats,
00:17:57.202 --> 00:17:59.137
To our texas security was so key that this passed in texas.
00:17:59.137 --> 00:18:02.908
Hey, you mentioned communist china trying to gobble up
00:18:02.908 --> 00:18:06.511
Land in texas.
00:18:06.511 --> 00:18:07.746
Tell us more about that and what you're doing to combat that.
00:18:07.746 --> 00:18:10.615
So we were getting reports in the legislature
00:18:10.615 --> 00:18:12.651
And being briefed on scenarios where we would have students
00:18:12.651 --> 00:18:16.721
That were going to university of texas or students
00:18:16.721 --> 00:18:19.024
That were going to texas a&m, texas tech, that were being sent
00:18:19.024 --> 00:18:22.327
Over as spies by the chinese government.
00:18:22.327 --> 00:18:25.330
And when they would come over,
00:18:25.330 --> 00:18:26.565
They would come with the student visa.
00:18:26.565 --> 00:18:28.033
But that student visa under texas state
00:18:28.033 --> 00:18:30.202
Law, allowed them to purchase land in the state of texas.
00:18:30.202 --> 00:18:34.306
Now, you might think, and maybe
00:18:34.306 --> 00:18:36.074
You're watching at home and you're sitting here
00:18:36.074 --> 00:18:37.642
Going, well, what's wrong with, you know, of a foreigner
00:18:37.642 --> 00:18:40.679
Owning texas land?
00:18:40.679 --> 00:18:41.546
Maybe they're planning to move here.
00:18:41.546 --> 00:18:42.581
Maybe they're planning to get their citizenship.
00:18:42.581 --> 00:18:43.982
The problem is they were purchasing up
00:18:43.982 --> 00:18:46.117
100 acre lots next to military bases, next
00:18:46.117 --> 00:18:49.688
To our
00:18:49.688 --> 00:18:50.322
Our most important levels
00:18:50.322 --> 00:18:51.556
Of infrastructure, which was a clear sign
00:18:51.556 --> 00:18:54.025
That this information was being sent back
00:18:54.025 --> 00:18:55.694
To the ccp, for foreign intelligence
00:18:55.694 --> 00:18:58.063
So that they could plan future attacks.
00:18:58.063 --> 00:18:59.531
This was clearly no coincidence. yes.
00:18:59.531 --> 00:19:01.866
And by the way, it's no coincidence.
00:19:01.866 --> 00:19:03.435
Just shifting gears a bit, nate,
00:19:03.435 --> 00:19:04.636
That you are a member of president trump's
00:19:04.636 --> 00:19:06.304
Faith advisory council. tell us about that.
00:19:06.304 --> 00:19:08.240
Some exciting things happening in dc.
00:19:08.240 --> 00:19:10.909
And i think it's reverberating across the country.
00:19:10.909 --> 00:19:13.044
Revival in the air.
00:19:13.044 --> 00:19:14.112
Yes, it's in revival is here. it's not coming.
00:19:14.112 --> 00:19:16.348
It is definitely here.
00:19:16.348 --> 00:19:17.449
What you said, you know, pastor paula white is senior
00:19:17.449 --> 00:19:20.819
Advisor to president trump for her, to his faith office.
00:19:20.819 --> 00:19:24.189
And she has an organization called
00:19:24.189 --> 00:19:25.790
National faith advisory board, where she brings in pastors
00:19:25.790 --> 00:19:28.994
And gives them a seat at the table,
00:19:28.994 --> 00:19:30.695
Not just on federal policy,
00:19:30.695 --> 00:19:31.963
But really to affect change across our country.
00:19:31.963 --> 00:19:34.499
And so, i was very, honored to take on the role
00:19:34.499 --> 00:19:38.670
Of being one of,
00:19:38.670 --> 00:19:40.138
The faith directors
00:19:40.138 --> 00:19:41.039
For the national faith advisory board,
00:19:41.039 --> 00:19:42.741
Where i have just the coolest job in the world.
00:19:42.741 --> 00:19:45.043
You know, i've gotten to help, right?
00:19:45.043 --> 00:19:46.478
Policies have gotten to help.
00:19:46.478 --> 00:19:48.146
Create change in the state of texas.
00:19:48.146 --> 00:19:49.547
And now i get to bring pastors into the room,
00:19:49.547 --> 00:19:53.151
Place them at the table and say, hey, what needs to change
00:19:53.151 --> 00:19:56.521
For religious liberty?
00:19:56.521 --> 00:19:57.756
And religious freedom to remain true across all of america?
00:19:57.756 --> 00:19:59.958
And so we're working right now with pastors to ensure
00:19:59.958 --> 00:20:03.428
That their voices are heard.
00:20:03.428 --> 00:20:05.163
The reality is, for far too long, pastors have either
00:20:05.163 --> 00:20:08.700
Abdicated their role to speak to the cultural issues.
00:20:08.700 --> 00:20:11.036
Because these issues we're talking about even china
00:20:11.036 --> 00:20:13.571
Owning texas land, that's not political.
00:20:13.571 --> 00:20:15.173
These are spiritual issues.
00:20:15.173 --> 00:20:17.075
You know, the gender ideology being taught to our kids,
00:20:17.075 --> 00:20:20.111
Spiritual issues,
00:20:20.111 --> 00:20:21.446
You know, protecting our young ladies
00:20:21.446 --> 00:20:23.181
From men being invading their their sports.
00:20:23.181 --> 00:20:25.450
That's a spiritual issue.
00:20:25.450 --> 00:20:26.885
And so our goal is to redirect.
00:20:26.885 --> 00:20:29.087
No longer will politicians
00:20:29.087 --> 00:20:31.122
Be able to control the narrative for the future of america.
00:20:31.122 --> 00:20:33.325
We want spiritual leaders to be guiding those politicians
00:20:33.325 --> 00:20:36.828
In every policy that we emanate. so well said.
00:20:36.828 --> 00:20:38.997
And we are locked in a spiritual struggle
00:20:38.997 --> 00:20:41.232
For the soul of our nation.
00:20:41.232 --> 00:20:42.767
How big of role is president trump back in office
00:20:42.767 --> 00:20:45.003
Playing on the positive side of the column in that battle,
00:20:45.003 --> 00:20:48.640
I mean, he opened this faith office,
00:20:48.640 --> 00:20:50.809
Pastor paula and jenny corn, of course, in charge.
00:20:50.809 --> 00:20:53.578
This is unprecedented, really.
00:20:53.578 --> 00:20:54.913
So they have actually stepped in.
00:20:54.913 --> 00:20:57.248
And with president trump's permission,
00:20:57.248 --> 00:20:58.650
They have opened up an office of investigation
00:20:58.650 --> 00:21:00.919
On, religious and religious bias against christianity.
00:21:00.919 --> 00:21:04.723
And they're finding that for decades,
00:21:04.723 --> 00:21:07.125
Christians have been denied opportunities,
00:21:07.125 --> 00:21:09.427
Their rights, everything
00:21:09.427 --> 00:21:10.662
By the federal government because of their faith.
00:21:10.662 --> 00:21:13.031
And so that's one example.
00:21:13.031 --> 00:21:14.499
Another example is president trump
00:21:14.499 --> 00:21:16.334
And the peace deal that he's working on right now in israel.
00:21:16.334 --> 00:21:18.670
We've never had a more pro-israel president
00:21:18.670 --> 00:21:20.839
Than president donald j. trump.
00:21:20.839 --> 00:21:22.107
What he's doing, and i will tell you this,
00:21:22.107 --> 00:21:23.775
There's never been a president that has opened his doors
00:21:23.775 --> 00:21:26.978
To more faith leaders than president donald j.
00:21:26.978 --> 00:21:29.514
Trump.
00:21:29.514 --> 00:21:30.315
And that right there brings favor
00:21:30.315 --> 00:21:32.150
On america and ensures that the lord is going
00:21:32.150 --> 00:21:34.686
To have the final say in what we do here needs.
00:21:34.686 --> 00:21:36.721
So well said.
00:21:36.721 --> 00:21:37.489
The return of common sense,
00:21:37.489 --> 00:21:38.923
The return of moral clarity, peace through strength.
00:21:38.923 --> 00:21:41.259
It's happening folks. be encouraged.
00:21:41.259 --> 00:21:43.061
Nay, thanks so much for everything you're doing here
00:21:43.061 --> 00:21:44.562
In the great state of texas and nationwide.
00:21:44.562 --> 00:21:46.431
God bless my friend.
00:21:46.431 --> 00:21:48.700
Up next, my
00:21:49.033 --> 00:21:50.068
Final thoughts on the canary in the coal mine.
00:21:50.068 --> 00:21:53.638
What is it?
00:21:53.638 --> 00:21:54.539
Find out after the break.
00:21:54.539 --> 00:22:03.001
Find out after the break.
00:22:03.001 --> 00:22:05.747
Welcome back to stakelbeck tonight, folks.
00:22:06.615 --> 00:22:08.383
As you wrap up here, we've been talking tonight
00:22:08.383 --> 00:22:10.552
And really the past several months
00:22:10.552 --> 00:22:12.521
About this rise in anti-semitism.
00:22:12.521 --> 00:22:14.489
Look, we expect it
00:22:14.489 --> 00:22:15.557
Sadly from the radical left and radical islamist.
00:22:15.557 --> 00:22:18.360
But we have this wing on the right as well
00:22:18.360 --> 00:22:20.295
That has become viciously anti-semitic.
00:22:20.295 --> 00:22:23.031
And this replacement theology viewpoint has crept in.
00:22:23.031 --> 00:22:26.668
God's done with the jewish people.
00:22:26.668 --> 00:22:28.637
Well,
00:22:28.637 --> 00:22:29.704
The apostle paul said in the book of romans,
00:22:29.704 --> 00:22:31.440
Chapter 11, verse 18, do not consider yourself
00:22:31.440 --> 00:22:34.609
To be superior to those other branches.
00:22:34.609 --> 00:22:37.646
If you do consider this, you do not support the root,
00:22:37.646 --> 00:22:42.017
But the root supports you.
00:22:42.017 --> 00:22:44.152
Paul is talking about the jewish people.
00:22:44.152 --> 00:22:46.188
We are grafted in through jesus, yet we have people
00:22:46.188 --> 00:22:50.091
Who just want to abandon
00:22:50.091 --> 00:22:51.560
The jewish people and say god's promises to them are done.
00:22:51.560 --> 00:22:55.430
They're null and void.
00:22:55.430 --> 00:22:56.865
Very big mistake.
00:22:56.865 --> 00:22:58.233
The jewish people and the jewish state,
00:22:58.233 --> 00:23:00.168
The state of israel are the canary in the coal mine.
00:23:00.168 --> 00:23:03.371
First, the saturday people, the jews,
00:23:03.371 --> 00:23:05.173
Then the sunday people, the christians.
00:23:05.173 --> 00:23:06.842
That's the rallying cry of radical islamists.
00:23:06.842 --> 00:23:09.678
We need to remember and stand with our jewish brothers
00:23:09.678 --> 00:23:12.447
And sisters for such a time as this.
00:23:12.447 --> 00:23:15.383
Until next time, god bless you and we'll see you soon.
00:23:15.383 --> 00:23:15.383
