From wars and rumors of war abroad, to the rise of anti-Christian, "woke" ideology here at home, it's clear that Americans are living in perilous and unprecedented times. Some would even say that we're witnessing biblical prophecy unfold in real time. Stakelbeck Tonight will make sense of these stunning developments through a bold and biblical lens.

Stakelbeck Tonight | Erick Stakelbeck: Defending the West | Stakelbeck Tonight | March 16, 2026
- Welcome to stakelbeck tonight.
- 00:00:03.660 --> 00:00:05.295
- I'm erick stakelbeck.
- 00:00:05.295 --> 00:00:06.496
- And to get an idea of just how far the west has fallen.
- 00:00:06.496 --> 00:00:11.634
- Compare the current u.s.
- 00:00:11.634 --> 00:00:13.203
- Military operation against iran to the effort
- 00:00:13.203 --> 00:00:16.306
- To defeat nazi germany during world war two.
- 00:00:16.306 --> 00:00:20.110
- Back then, a coalition of nations
- 00:00:20.110 --> 00:00:22.011
- Banded together to destroy hitler's war machine.
- 00:00:22.011 --> 00:00:26.049
- Today, the free world is facing a modern day nazi
- 00:00:26.049 --> 00:00:29.519
- Death cult in the form of iran's regime.
- 00:00:29.519 --> 00:00:32.689
- The ayatollahs were driving for nuclear weapons
- 00:00:32.689 --> 00:00:35.325
- And working on the ballistic missiles
- 00:00:35.325 --> 00:00:37.360
- That could deliver them to europe and the united states.
- 00:00:37.360 --> 00:00:41.064
- The iranian regime
- 00:00:41.064 --> 00:00:42.098
- Has spent 47 years sowing death and destruction
- 00:00:42.098 --> 00:00:45.768
- In the middle east
- 00:00:45.768 --> 00:00:47.003
- And around the world, and now the threat became imminent.
- 00:00:47.003 --> 00:00:51.274
- They were about to cross the nuclear threshold.
- 00:00:51.274 --> 00:00:54.644
- You think the entire free world would unite
- 00:00:54.644 --> 00:00:57.180
- To eliminate this existential threat,
- 00:00:57.180 --> 00:00:59.816
- Just as it did during world war two?
- 00:00:59.816 --> 00:01:02.519
- But 2026 is not 1941.
- 00:01:02.519 --> 00:01:05.922
- This time around, the only nations that have stepped up
- 00:01:05.922 --> 00:01:08.925
- And answered the call
- 00:01:08.925 --> 00:01:10.126
- To confront the world's number one state sponsor of terrorism
- 00:01:10.126 --> 00:01:14.030
- Have been the united states and israel.
- 00:01:14.030 --> 00:01:17.100
- That's it.
- 00:01:17.100 --> 00:01:18.368
- They're the same two nations that have been carrying
- 00:01:18.368 --> 00:01:20.570
- What's left of judeo-christian
- 00:01:20.570 --> 00:01:22.772
- Western civilization on their backs for decades.
- 00:01:22.772 --> 00:01:26.042
- That's why over the weekend, president trump called for other
- 00:01:26.042 --> 00:01:29.712
- Nations, and nato in particular, to join the fight and help
- 00:01:29.712 --> 00:01:34.083
- Keep the vital strait of hormuz open.
- 00:01:34.083 --> 00:01:37.320
- Iran has been trying to shut down the strategic waterway,
- 00:01:37.320 --> 00:01:40.256
- Where some 20% of the world's energy flows through each day.
- 00:01:40.256 --> 00:01:45.161
- If the strait is closed, oil and gas prices
- 00:01:45.161 --> 00:01:48.331
- Could skyrocket, meaning every nation has a stake in it.
- 00:01:48.331 --> 00:01:52.969
- We're so you would think.
- 00:01:52.969 --> 00:01:54.737
- Here's more from the president.
- 00:01:54.737 --> 00:01:56.673
- I said, for you, i mean, for 40 years, we're protecting you and
- 00:01:56.673 --> 00:01:59.642
- You don't want to get involved in something that is very minor.
- 00:01:59.642 --> 00:02:03.546
- Very few shots are going to be taken
- 00:02:03.546 --> 00:02:05.181
- Because they don't have many shots left,
- 00:02:05.181 --> 00:02:07.584
- But they said would rather not
- 00:02:07.584 --> 00:02:10.019
- Get involved.
- 00:02:10.386 --> 00:02:11.821
- I just want the fake news media and everybody else to remember
- 00:02:11.821 --> 00:02:15.825
- That that was said because, when
- 00:02:15.825 --> 00:02:19.095
- And i've been a big critic
- 00:02:19.662 --> 00:02:20.830
- Of all of the
- 00:02:20.830 --> 00:02:22.131
- Protecting of countries because i know that we'll protect them
- 00:02:22.131 --> 00:02:25.635
- And if ever needed,
- 00:02:26.102 --> 00:02:28.371
- If we ever needed help, they won't be there for us.
- 00:02:28.371 --> 00:02:31.374
- I've just known
- 00:02:31.374 --> 00:02:32.408
- That for a long period of time, just like i knew
- 00:02:32.408 --> 00:02:35.178
- About the straight, that it would be
- 00:02:35.178 --> 00:02:37.880
- A weapon.
- 00:02:37.880 --> 00:02:41.150
- He's right.
- 00:02:41.484 --> 00:02:42.552
- Over the past 16 days since operation epic fury
- 00:02:42.552 --> 00:02:45.421
- Was launched, israel and the united states
- 00:02:45.421 --> 00:02:47.790
- Have destroyed iran's navy, air force and air defenses,
- 00:02:47.790 --> 00:02:52.128
- Eliminated most of its senior leadership, and severely
- 00:02:52.128 --> 00:02:55.732
- Crippled iran's ability to fire ballistic missiles and drones.
- 00:02:55.732 --> 00:03:00.036
- The u.s.
- 00:03:00.303 --> 00:03:01.237
- And israel have done all the heavy lifting.
- 00:03:01.237 --> 00:03:04.007
- It wouldn't require a massive effort
- 00:03:04.007 --> 00:03:06.175
- For europe to get involved now and help patrol the strait.
- 00:03:06.175 --> 00:03:10.246
- And yet, germany, spain and italy have already said no.
- 00:03:10.246 --> 00:03:15.151
- So have canada and australia and the uk
- 00:03:15.151 --> 00:03:18.421
- And france remain very much on the fence.
- 00:03:18.421 --> 00:03:21.491
- Folks, it is very clear that the united states,
- 00:03:21.491 --> 00:03:24.193
- Under president trump,
- 00:03:24.193 --> 00:03:25.795
- Is the last line of defense for western civilization.
- 00:03:25.795 --> 00:03:30.066
- And that's why we must preserve our way of life here at home.
- 00:03:30.066 --> 00:03:34.904
- Coming up, we're joined by a rising star in washington,
- 00:03:34.904 --> 00:03:37.840
- Congressman brandon gil, to hear exactly how he is doing that.
- 00:03:37.840 --> 00:03:42.178
- And it all starts now.
- 00:03:42.645 --> 00:04:00.730
- Election security, illegal immigration,
- 00:04:01.531 --> 00:04:04.233
- And a growing fight in congress over the influence of islamic
- 00:04:04.233 --> 00:04:08.171
- Sharia law.
- 00:04:08.171 --> 00:04:09.439
- The stakes for america's future have never been higher.
- 00:04:09.439 --> 00:04:12.809
- And texas congressman brandon gil is at the tip of the spear
- 00:04:12.809 --> 00:04:16.112
- In this fight.
- 00:04:16.112 --> 00:04:17.213
- He's been drawing
- 00:04:17.213 --> 00:04:18.448
- A line in the sand on capitol hill, pushing for the save act
- 00:04:18.448 --> 00:04:21.784
- To ensure that only american citizens
- 00:04:21.784 --> 00:04:24.253
- Imagine that vote in our elections.
- 00:04:24.253 --> 00:04:26.856
- And he's also a member of the sharia
- 00:04:26.856 --> 00:04:28.458
- Free caucus, a group aimed at defending the u.s.
- 00:04:28.458 --> 00:04:30.927
- Constitution from the growing influence of sharia based legal
- 00:04:30.927 --> 00:04:35.331
- And political ideology.
- 00:04:35.331 --> 00:04:36.766
- He joins us now.
- 00:04:36.766 --> 00:04:37.633
- Congressman, great to see you.
- 00:04:37.633 --> 00:04:39.869
- Hey, let's start with the save act.
- 00:04:39.869 --> 00:04:41.904
- To me, this seems like common sense.
- 00:04:41.904 --> 00:04:44.140
- I need to show id to get a library card, but
- 00:04:44.140 --> 00:04:47.243
- I don't need id to vote for president of the united states.
- 00:04:47.243 --> 00:04:51.247
- Why? is there any opposition to this at all on capitol hill?
- 00:04:51.247 --> 00:04:54.717
- Congressman, you're in these meetings.
- 00:04:54.717 --> 00:04:56.252
- You're hearing about every day.
- 00:04:56.252 --> 00:04:57.220
- President trump obviously
- 00:04:57.220 --> 00:04:58.388
- Is pushing to get the safe act passed.
- 00:04:58.388 --> 00:05:00.790
- Why would any republican in particular oppose this?
- 00:05:00.790 --> 00:05:04.460
- Yeah, this is about as commonsense
- 00:05:05.228 --> 00:05:06.996
- A bill as you can possibly imagine.
- 00:05:06.996 --> 00:05:08.731
- Simply saying you've got to prove that you're
- 00:05:08.731 --> 00:05:10.533
- You're an american citizen to vote in american elections.
- 00:05:10.533 --> 00:05:13.836
- And something that the vast majority of american voters,
- 00:05:13.836 --> 00:05:16.973
- Republican or democrat, agree with and thinks should be
- 00:05:16.973 --> 00:05:20.443
- A common sense and simple bill to get signed into law.
- 00:05:20.443 --> 00:05:23.880
- The left opposes this legislation,
- 00:05:23.880 --> 00:05:25.882
- I think, because primarily they would like to see
- 00:05:25.882 --> 00:05:28.951
- Illegal aliens vote in our elections.
- 00:05:28.951 --> 00:05:31.020
- They think that that is their path
- 00:05:31.020 --> 00:05:32.522
- To long term political power.
- 00:05:32.522 --> 00:05:34.223
- That's something they've been talking about
- 00:05:34.223 --> 00:05:36.092
- For several decades now.
- 00:05:36.092 --> 00:05:37.894
- What's harder to understand is
- 00:05:37.894 --> 00:05:39.195
- Why anybody on the republican side would disagree with this.
- 00:05:39.195 --> 00:05:42.331
- And i think as far as elected officials go,
- 00:05:42.331 --> 00:05:45.134
- Almost every single elected republican
- 00:05:45.134 --> 00:05:47.537
- In both the house and the senate agree
- 00:05:47.537 --> 00:05:49.839
- With the merits of the save america act.
- 00:05:49.839 --> 00:05:52.341
- Where the debate is happening
- 00:05:52.341 --> 00:05:53.810
- Is precisely how to get this bill
- 00:05:53.810 --> 00:05:56.212
- Across the finish line in the senate.
- 00:05:56.212 --> 00:05:58.314
- What i would like to see happen
- 00:05:58.314 --> 00:06:00.183
- Is the senate move to what's called a talking filibuster,
- 00:06:00.183 --> 00:06:02.852
- Where senators actually debate the merits of this bill
- 00:06:02.852 --> 00:06:06.055
- Before they can bring this bill for an actual vote.
- 00:06:06.055 --> 00:06:08.925
- I think that's going to be the best path forward.
- 00:06:08.925 --> 00:06:11.360
- But that's where we're at right now.
- 00:06:11.360 --> 00:06:13.563
- In the meantime, my view is that
- 00:06:13.563 --> 00:06:15.331
- This is the most important piece of legislation
- 00:06:15.331 --> 00:06:17.967
- That we have in front of us, right now.
- 00:06:17.967 --> 00:06:19.769
- It's something that
- 00:06:19.769 --> 00:06:20.736
- All of our republican voters are focused on.
- 00:06:20.736 --> 00:06:24.240
- And, and,
- 00:06:24.240 --> 00:06:24.974
- And i've said publicly
- 00:06:24.974 --> 00:06:26.342
- That i'm not going to vote for any senate bill in the house
- 00:06:26.342 --> 00:06:29.212
- Other than dhs funding until the senate gets
- 00:06:29.212 --> 00:06:32.315
- This bill signed and passed out of the senate,
- 00:06:32.315 --> 00:06:35.251
- So that we can get it signed into law.
- 00:06:35.251 --> 00:06:36.986
- Yeah, congressman, it's a no brain.
- 00:06:36.986 --> 00:06:38.387
- And really poll after poll of republican voters,
- 00:06:38.387 --> 00:06:40.490
- Even democrats agree voter id is a necessity,
- 00:06:40.490 --> 00:06:44.660
- With the save act in regards to election integrity.
- 00:06:44.660 --> 00:06:48.331
- If it does not pass.
- 00:06:48.331 --> 00:06:49.866
- How does that impact our future elections?
- 00:06:49.866 --> 00:06:51.968
- We've got the midterms coming up, of course, 2028.
- 00:06:51.968 --> 00:06:54.637
- It seems that the save act would go a long way towards
- 00:06:54.637 --> 00:06:57.540
- Ensuring a free and fair election.
- 00:06:57.540 --> 00:07:00.643
- Absolutely it would.
- 00:07:01.110 --> 00:07:02.278
- I think it impacts the midterms on two different fronts.
- 00:07:02.278 --> 00:07:05.481
- One is that we simply on a on a basic level,
- 00:07:05.481 --> 00:07:09.318
- Do not want illegal aliens voting in our election system.
- 00:07:09.318 --> 00:07:12.321
- The democrats
- 00:07:12.321 --> 00:07:13.523
- Flooded our country with 15 to 20 million illegal aliens
- 00:07:13.523 --> 00:07:17.059
- Over the past four years alone during the biden administration.
- 00:07:17.059 --> 00:07:20.363
- We want to ensure
- 00:07:20.363 --> 00:07:21.597
- That none of those are voting
- 00:07:21.597 --> 00:07:22.899
- And influencing our election system,
- 00:07:22.899 --> 00:07:24.567
- And there's reasonable grounds to believe that they are.
- 00:07:24.567 --> 00:07:27.303
- And have been for quite some time.
- 00:07:27.303 --> 00:07:29.805
- That's the first thing i think.
- 00:07:29.805 --> 00:07:31.274
- Secondly is that as republicans,
- 00:07:31.274 --> 00:07:33.543
- We need to be able to show our voters
- 00:07:33.543 --> 00:07:35.211
- That we can actually get things
- 00:07:35.211 --> 00:07:36.812
- Done, that whenever republicans and democrats,
- 00:07:36.812 --> 00:07:40.716
- Agree on a piece of legislation, republican and democrat
- 00:07:40.716 --> 00:07:43.619
- Voters, i should say, agree on a piece of legislation,
- 00:07:43.619 --> 00:07:46.722
- That that is as basic and commonsense as this.
- 00:07:46.722 --> 00:07:49.225
- We can actually get it signed into law.
- 00:07:49.225 --> 00:07:51.961
- We need to give republicans a reason to get out and vote
- 00:07:51.961 --> 00:07:55.364
- For us to show that we can actually put, put points
- 00:07:55.364 --> 00:07:59.135
- On the board and get real wins to motivate our base.
- 00:07:59.135 --> 00:08:02.371
- And i think that'll be important for turnout, in november.
- 00:08:02.371 --> 00:08:05.541
- Yeah. congressman. well, said.
- 00:08:05.541 --> 00:08:06.776
- Another place where you are putting points on the board
- 00:08:06.776 --> 00:08:08.978
- Is the fight against islamic sharia law in america.
- 00:08:08.978 --> 00:08:12.315
- You're a member of the sharia free caucus here in texas.
- 00:08:12.315 --> 00:08:15.451
- I think it was 95% of texans just voted
- 00:08:15.451 --> 00:08:18.588
- No to islamic sharia in the lone star state.
- 00:08:18.588 --> 00:08:22.325
- Congressman, some are saying, well, this is exaggerated,
- 00:08:22.325 --> 00:08:24.627
- But you say no, sharia and islamism,
- 00:08:24.627 --> 00:08:27.830
- They're making inroads in the united states.
- 00:08:27.830 --> 00:08:29.599
- Breakdown of that down a bit more for us
- 00:08:29.599 --> 00:08:31.834
- And why the sharia free caucus is so necessary right now?
- 00:08:31.834 --> 00:08:35.805
- Sure.
- 00:08:36.038 --> 00:08:36.973
- This is one of the biggest issues that i hear
- 00:08:36.973 --> 00:08:38.407
- From constituents
- 00:08:38.407 --> 00:08:39.609
- In the dfw area all the time is the growing islamisation
- 00:08:39.609 --> 00:08:43.446
- Of the united states and of texas in particular.
- 00:08:43.446 --> 00:08:46.682
- What you hear people talk about is that their communities
- 00:08:46.682 --> 00:08:49.619
- That they've lived
- 00:08:49.619 --> 00:08:50.753
- In, maybe their family has lived in for generations, are
- 00:08:50.753 --> 00:08:53.689
- Being fundamentally transformed by mass islamic immigration.
- 00:08:53.689 --> 00:08:58.094
- And what that means is that that impacts schools.
- 00:08:58.094 --> 00:09:01.430
- It impacts your community.
- 00:09:01.430 --> 00:09:02.598
- And you wake up, you know,
- 00:09:02.598 --> 00:09:03.933
- Nobody wants to wake up in the morning,
- 00:09:03.933 --> 00:09:06.135
- And hear
- 00:09:06.135 --> 00:09:07.269
- Islamic calls to prayer, at least in the united states.
- 00:09:07.269 --> 00:09:09.872
- So this is something that the people are
- 00:09:09.872 --> 00:09:11.674
- Telling us is a big issue.
- 00:09:11.674 --> 00:09:13.643
- And i think that
- 00:09:13.643 --> 00:09:14.810
- We as, as elected officials, have to be straightforward
- 00:09:14.810 --> 00:09:17.380
- And clear about the threat that this poses to our way of life.
- 00:09:17.380 --> 00:09:21.484
- The reality is that americans have a very different
- 00:09:21.484 --> 00:09:24.787
- Conception of freedom of speech than political islam does.
- 00:09:24.787 --> 00:09:28.924
- We have a very different conception
- 00:09:28.924 --> 00:09:30.426
- Of freedom of religion, of the separation
- 00:09:30.426 --> 00:09:32.461
- Of church and state, of the role and dignity of women
- 00:09:32.461 --> 00:09:35.398
- In public life than the islamic world does.
- 00:09:35.398 --> 00:09:38.334
- And those are incompatible differences and make,
- 00:09:38.334 --> 00:09:41.070
- I think, i believe, mass islamic immigration
- 00:09:41.070 --> 00:09:43.806
- Absolutely unassailable and to american society.
- 00:09:43.806 --> 00:09:47.243
- And we've got to be straightforward
- 00:09:47.243 --> 00:09:48.544
- And recognize that not all cultures are equal, and not all
- 00:09:48.544 --> 00:09:51.480
- Cultures are equally compatible with our governing framework.
- 00:09:51.480 --> 00:09:55.484
- And i do not believe that political islam is.
- 00:09:55.484 --> 00:09:58.254
- So if we want to preserve
- 00:09:58.254 --> 00:09:59.455
- America, the country
- 00:09:59.455 --> 00:10:00.523
- That we know and love our constitutional order,
- 00:10:00.523 --> 00:10:03.626
- We've got to wake up and realize that mass islamic immigration
- 00:10:03.626 --> 00:10:06.696
- Is, is incredibly harmful.
- 00:10:06.696 --> 00:10:10.032
- And that's
- 00:10:10.332 --> 00:10:10.966
- One of the biggest reasons
- 00:10:10.966 --> 00:10:12.034
- Why i'm a member of the sharia free america caucus.
- 00:10:12.034 --> 00:10:14.570
- Yeah.
- 00:10:14.570 --> 00:10:15.638
- Look, dfw 48 mosques in 24 months have been built.
- 00:10:15.638 --> 00:10:19.008
- Last question, congressman, about 30s left.
- 00:10:19.008 --> 00:10:21.644
- Do you see europe, london in particular, as a cautionary tale
- 00:10:21.644 --> 00:10:25.081
- For america when it comes to islam?
- 00:10:25.081 --> 00:10:27.550
- Oh, absolutely.
- 00:10:27.917 --> 00:10:28.984
- You've got parts of paris
- 00:10:28.984 --> 00:10:30.419
- And london that no longer look parisian or english anymore.
- 00:10:30.419 --> 00:10:34.523
- You've got areas in both of those cities
- 00:10:34.523 --> 00:10:36.792
- That are no go zones, for native parisians or native londoners.
- 00:10:36.792 --> 00:10:41.030
- That is a problem.
- 00:10:41.030 --> 00:10:42.364
- What we don't want is to see parallel legal institutions
- 00:10:42.364 --> 00:10:45.701
- Popping up in the united states, which they are.
- 00:10:45.701 --> 00:10:48.137
- In the same way that you have in europe.
- 00:10:48.137 --> 00:10:50.072
- But we don't want to see
- 00:10:50.072 --> 00:10:51.207
- Is the american way of life fundamentally transformed,
- 00:10:51.207 --> 00:10:54.376
- Because you have islamic pressure on our legal system,
- 00:10:54.376 --> 00:10:58.280
- And that's what's going to happen
- 00:10:58.280 --> 00:10:59.615
- And is starting to happen here in the united states.
- 00:10:59.615 --> 00:11:02.051
- Again, we can be politically correct
- 00:11:02.051 --> 00:11:03.786
- About it, or we can wake up and we can defend our country.
- 00:11:03.786 --> 00:11:06.489
- Amen. congressman, you are doing exactly that, folks.
- 00:11:06.489 --> 00:11:08.891
- He is one to watch on capitol hill.
- 00:11:08.891 --> 00:11:10.292
- Congressman brandon go, congressman thanks so much.
- 00:11:10.292 --> 00:11:12.361
- God bless you.
- 00:11:12.361 --> 00:11:13.162

- Lion are the culmination
- 00:11:36.028 --> 00:11:37.563
- Of years of coordinated effort by israel and the united states
- 00:11:37.563 --> 00:11:41.433
- To dismantle iran's nuclear ambitions.
- 00:11:41.433 --> 00:11:44.436
- These historic operations represent a major moment
- 00:11:44.436 --> 00:11:47.740
- In the long battle to stop the world's number one
- 00:11:47.740 --> 00:11:50.776
- State sponsor of terrorism
- 00:11:50.776 --> 00:11:52.311
- From acquiring the most dangerous weapons on earth.
- 00:11:52.311 --> 00:11:55.881
- I recently spoke to doctor mike evans,
- 00:11:55.881 --> 00:11:57.716

- Take a look.
- 00:12:12.531 --> 00:12:14.733
- Doctor evans, always great to see you.
- 00:12:14.733 --> 00:12:16.435
- Welcome. congrats on the book.
- 00:12:16.435 --> 00:12:18.137
- We're going to dig into it in a minute.
- 00:12:18.137 --> 00:12:19.471
- But first we've got the current
- 00:12:19.471 --> 00:12:21.307
- Operation right now epic fury and roaring lion.
- 00:12:21.307 --> 00:12:25.110
- You're based most of the time in jerusalem.
- 00:12:25.110 --> 00:12:27.980
- You're here in the states right now.
- 00:12:27.980 --> 00:12:29.281
- But what have you seen so far in this operation to me?
- 00:12:29.281 --> 00:12:32.618
- Absolutely.
- 00:12:32.618 --> 00:12:33.485
- Historic cooperation between the u.s.
- 00:12:33.485 --> 00:12:35.421
- And israel.
- 00:12:35.421 --> 00:12:36.455
- And we may, god willing,
- 00:12:36.455 --> 00:12:37.857
- See the fall of the world's number one state
- 00:12:37.857 --> 00:12:39.859
- Sponsor of terrorism in the very near future.
- 00:12:39.859 --> 00:12:42.261
- Your larger
- 00:12:42.261 --> 00:12:43.495
- Impressions of it, doctor evans, as you watch it all go down.
- 00:12:43.495 --> 00:12:46.298
- Well, eric, we're believers
- 00:12:46.298 --> 00:12:47.600
- And we know the story of daniel and esther and purim.
- 00:12:47.600 --> 00:12:50.870
- And for the first time in history, the persians
- 00:12:50.870 --> 00:12:53.639
- And the jews are celebrating purim together.
- 00:12:53.639 --> 00:12:56.976
- A poor miracle is taking place
- 00:12:56.976 --> 00:12:59.345
- In answer to both of their prayers.
- 00:12:59.345 --> 00:13:01.714
- The state of israel is getting hammered. really hammered.
- 00:13:01.714 --> 00:13:04.650
- With all kinds of missiles that are coming in.
- 00:13:05.551 --> 00:13:09.221
- I was there i was at the attacks in the hospitals
- 00:13:09.221 --> 00:13:12.858
- And the funerals.
- 00:13:12.858 --> 00:13:14.159
- It's a tough one.
- 00:13:14.159 --> 00:13:15.160
- But israel is strong and they're optimistic.
- 00:13:15.160 --> 00:13:18.797
- And those barrages, doctor evans,
- 00:13:18.797 --> 00:13:20.866
- That you mentioned against tel
- 00:13:20.866 --> 00:13:22.534
- Aviv, even jerusalem, involving now these cluster warheads
- 00:13:22.534 --> 00:13:26.305
- That the wicked iranian regime is using,
- 00:13:26.305 --> 00:13:28.374
- Which are designed to cause maximum carnage among civilians.
- 00:13:28.374 --> 00:13:32.278
- Hey, you mentioned president trump.
- 00:13:32.278 --> 00:13:33.712
- Can you talk about president trump's vision in this?
- 00:13:33.712 --> 00:13:36.782
- This president was chosen by god with moral clarity.
- 00:13:36.782 --> 00:13:42.388
- And there's a prime minister that was chosen
- 00:13:42.388 --> 00:13:45.491
- By god with moral clarity.
- 00:13:45.491 --> 00:13:48.327
- Now, how do i know that?
- 00:13:48.327 --> 00:13:50.629
- Because on june 30th, 1980, i met with manok and bacon.
- 00:13:50.629 --> 00:13:55.100
- He said, why did you come?
- 00:13:55.100 --> 00:13:56.368
- I said, i know god sent me, but he didn't tell me why.
- 00:13:56.368 --> 00:13:59.638
- He laughed.
- 00:13:59.638 --> 00:14:00.572
- He said, finally, i've been an honest man.
- 00:14:00.572 --> 00:14:02.975
- When god tells you why, come back and tell me.
- 00:14:02.975 --> 00:14:06.078
- On the 4th of july i knocked at the door
- 00:14:06.078 --> 00:14:08.714
- Of a grieving 28 year old young man by the name of benjamin
- 00:14:08.714 --> 00:14:12.885
- Netanyahu in the home of benzene.
- 00:14:12.885 --> 00:14:15.354
- And i said, can i pray for you?
- 00:14:15.354 --> 00:14:16.889
- And this was my prayer
- 00:14:16.889 --> 00:14:18.390
- Out of the ashes of your despair will come strength from god,
- 00:14:18.390 --> 00:14:21.427
- And you will be the prime minister of israel.
- 00:14:21.427 --> 00:14:24.063
- The following day, on july 5th, i met with manok and bacon
- 00:14:24.063 --> 00:14:28.500
- And i. i met the prime minister yesterday.
- 00:14:28.500 --> 00:14:30.669
- No, no, you met me on the 30th of june.
- 00:14:30.669 --> 00:14:33.138
- It's not you, it's benjamin. not on you.
- 00:14:33.138 --> 00:14:35.474
- How will you get him a job in the government?
- 00:14:35.474 --> 00:14:37.309
- He'll be the prime minister of israel.
- 00:14:37.309 --> 00:14:39.411
- Well, he is the prime minister of israel,
- 00:14:39.411 --> 00:14:41.814
- And i'm his cherished friend since those days.
- 00:14:41.814 --> 00:14:45.617
- He was chosen by god.
- 00:14:45.617 --> 00:14:46.986
- Donald trump was chosen by god.
- 00:14:46.986 --> 00:14:49.788
- And we're living in a very, very wonderful prophetic time.
- 00:14:49.788 --> 00:14:54.159
- Yeah. no doubt.
- 00:14:54.159 --> 00:14:55.227
- Well said.
- 00:14:55.227 --> 00:14:55.828
- And look,
- 00:14:55.828 --> 00:14:56.762
- Operations rising line, midnight hammer,
- 00:14:56.762 --> 00:14:58.197
- Your brand new blockbuster, doctor evans.
- 00:14:58.197 --> 00:15:00.199
- It details how what we're seeing right
- 00:15:00.199 --> 00:15:02.001
- Now, it's the culmination of it right now in the month of march
- 00:15:02.001 --> 00:15:05.070
- 2026, is joint operation against iran's regime.
- 00:15:05.070 --> 00:15:08.207
- But what we're seeing right now doesn't happen
- 00:15:08.207 --> 00:15:10.609
- Without what happened in june 2025.
- 00:15:10.609 --> 00:15:12.811
- Unpack that a bit more for us.
- 00:15:12.811 --> 00:15:15.047
- The islamic revolution.
- 00:15:15.047 --> 00:15:17.249
- The architect of it was jimmy carter.
- 00:15:17.249 --> 00:15:20.252
- I wrote the definitive work on this, jimmy carter, the liberal.
- 00:15:20.252 --> 00:15:23.989
- After world chaos.
- 00:15:23.989 --> 00:15:25.257
- He threatened to sue me if i published the book.
- 00:15:25.257 --> 00:15:28.160
- I interviewed 100 leaders for the book,
- 00:15:28.160 --> 00:15:30.629
- Including vera palau, the empress.
- 00:15:30.629 --> 00:15:33.132
- She told me
- 00:15:33.132 --> 00:15:34.366
- Jimmy carter came to our home in the persian new year.
- 00:15:34.366 --> 00:15:37.136
- And he said to my husband,
- 00:15:37.136 --> 00:15:39.071
- You will release political prisoners,
- 00:15:39.071 --> 00:15:41.273
- Give freedom of religion, freedom of press,
- 00:15:41.273 --> 00:15:43.909
- And allow khomeini to come back into the country.
- 00:15:43.909 --> 00:15:46.779
- If you don't, no replacement
- 00:15:46.779 --> 00:15:49.148
- Parts for your helicopters, your planes, he she told me.
- 00:15:49.148 --> 00:15:53.118
- The shah said to her, if i do what he says,
- 00:15:53.118 --> 00:15:56.188
- The russians will invade afghanistan.
- 00:15:56.188 --> 00:15:58.457
- Iraq will attack us.
- 00:15:58.457 --> 00:16:00.826
- There'll be an slavic revolution.
- 00:16:00.826 --> 00:16:02.694
- Revolution?
- 00:16:02.694 --> 00:16:03.829
- And who knows when horror will come upon the earth.
- 00:16:03.829 --> 00:16:06.298
- I'm met with general houser,
- 00:16:06.298 --> 00:16:08.467
- Who was over the military operation for carter.
- 00:16:08.467 --> 00:16:11.036
- He told me he betrayed the allies.
- 00:16:11.036 --> 00:16:13.405
- He said carter plotted the overthrow of the shah
- 00:16:13.405 --> 00:16:17.242
- Because he thought he was going to bring in gandhi,
- 00:16:17.242 --> 00:16:20.779
- A cleric who's going to bring human rights.
- 00:16:20.779 --> 00:16:23.749
- So we're dealing with moral poverty.
- 00:16:23.749 --> 00:16:26.652
- You had a democrat leftist
- 00:16:26.652 --> 00:16:30.489
- Ideologue who caused the overthrow of iran,
- 00:16:30.489 --> 00:16:35.294
- And now you have a president with moral clarity
- 00:16:35.294 --> 00:16:39.965
- Who's bringing deliverance for the people of iran.
- 00:16:39.965 --> 00:16:43.836
- Yeah, it's moral clarity and it's peace through strength.
- 00:16:43.836 --> 00:16:46.772
- And it always works.
- 00:16:46.772 --> 00:16:48.974
- Up next, israel delivers
- 00:16:49.508 --> 00:16:51.110
- Devastating blows to iran's terror proxies and the u.s.
- 00:16:51.110 --> 00:16:54.947
- Steps in to strike iran's nuclear program.
- 00:16:54.947 --> 00:16:58.183
- Doctor mike evans explains why he believes this moment
- 00:16:58.183 --> 00:17:00.919
- Could mark a turning point for israel and the world.
- 00:17:00.919 --> 00:17:05.324
- They'll move.
- 00:17:05.691 --> 00:17:10.015
- They'll move.
- 00:17:10.015 --> 00:17:13.136
- Welcome back to stakelbeck tonight.
- 00:17:13.903 --> 00:17:15.838
- As the war between
- 00:17:15.838 --> 00:17:16.973
- Israel and iran's terror network intensifies,
- 00:17:16.973 --> 00:17:19.976
- The conflict isn't just being fought on the battlefield.
- 00:17:19.976 --> 00:17:23.546
- It's also a war of intelligence, ideology and global influence.
- 00:17:23.546 --> 00:17:28.551
- Doctor mike evans says that what we're witnessing
- 00:17:28.551 --> 00:17:30.720
- Is not just a military conflict, but a much bigger
- 00:17:30.720 --> 00:17:34.390
- Strategic and even spiritual battle.
- 00:17:34.390 --> 00:17:37.560
- Take a look,
- 00:17:37.894 --> 00:17:39.829
- Doctor evans.
- 00:17:39.829 --> 00:17:40.963
- When we talk about what's happening right now
- 00:17:40.963 --> 00:17:43.299
- In the operation, we talk about midnight hammer
- 00:17:43.299 --> 00:17:45.635
- In june 2025, president trump's historic decision
- 00:17:45.635 --> 00:17:48.437
- To destroy iran's nuclear sites.
- 00:17:48.437 --> 00:17:50.473
- You write about a date earlier in 2018,
- 00:17:50.473 --> 00:17:53.976
- When israel had a massive heist of iran's nuclear
- 00:17:53.976 --> 00:17:58.548
- Information sensitive nuclear materials in tehran.
- 00:17:58.548 --> 00:18:01.984
- Daring operation by the mossad.
- 00:18:01.984 --> 00:18:03.953
- You detailed in the book.
- 00:18:03.953 --> 00:18:05.021
- Tell us more about that and why it was a pivot point
- 00:18:05.021 --> 00:18:07.456
- In this battle to take out a nuclear iran.
- 00:18:07.456 --> 00:18:11.360
- Well, as you know, you saw
- 00:18:11.928 --> 00:18:14.230
- The seven war battle that took place,
- 00:18:14.230 --> 00:18:16.332
- And you saw what israel accomplished with hezbollah,
- 00:18:16.332 --> 00:18:20.269
- Kind of like,
- 00:18:20.636 --> 00:18:22.605
- In the time of samson.
- 00:18:22.605 --> 00:18:25.308
- They got neutered.
- 00:18:25.308 --> 00:18:27.577
- So israeli intelligence has been absolutely staggering,
- 00:18:26.475 --> 00:18:31.914
- In understanding the complexity of this.
- 00:18:31.914 --> 00:18:34.483
- And it's very complex here, here.
- 00:18:34.483 --> 00:18:36.953
- Here's a country
- 00:18:36.953 --> 00:18:38.354
- That's the center of gravity with seven proxies.
- 00:18:38.354 --> 00:18:41.457
- Now, why did they get their proxies?
- 00:18:41.457 --> 00:18:43.893
- Because during the iran-iraq war, they were losing.
- 00:18:43.893 --> 00:18:48.497
- They took a million children and tied their arms together,
- 00:18:48.497 --> 00:18:52.301
- Wrist with ropes,
- 00:18:52.301 --> 00:18:53.936
- Put a martyr badge on
- 00:18:53.936 --> 00:18:55.171
- And kind of heaven on them and use them
- 00:18:55.171 --> 00:18:57.206
- To clear the minefields.
- 00:18:57.206 --> 00:18:59.108
- So after that, eight and a half year war,
- 00:18:59.108 --> 00:19:01.077
- They said, well, we gotta do this different.
- 00:19:01.077 --> 00:19:02.878
- We need proxies.
- 00:19:02.878 --> 00:19:04.313
- So they started pouring into these proxies, abbas, hezbollah
- 00:19:04.313 --> 00:19:08.918
- And all these proxies, thinking this was the key.
- 00:19:08.918 --> 00:19:12.188
- This is the way that we're going to fight the new wars.
- 00:19:12.188 --> 00:19:14.624
- By the way, shimon peres, who was my chairman,
- 00:19:14.624 --> 00:19:17.293
- He told me in the last century, the new wars of the 21st
- 00:19:17.293 --> 00:19:20.596
- Century will be ideological wars,
- 00:19:20.596 --> 00:19:23.833
- Media wars, economic wars and proxy wars.
- 00:19:23.833 --> 00:19:28.070
- He was so right.
- 00:19:28.070 --> 00:19:29.138
- So israel understands this.
- 00:19:29.138 --> 00:19:31.741
- And oh, by the way, eric israel cannot.
- 00:19:31.741 --> 00:19:35.278
- And by the way, there's one more spirit wars.
- 00:19:35.278 --> 00:19:38.381
- Spirit wars.
- 00:19:38.381 --> 00:19:39.949
- And you know all about that.
- 00:19:39.949 --> 00:19:42.184
- Israel cannot win an economic war.
- 00:19:42.184 --> 00:19:45.221
- Israel's a tiny nation compared to a global economy.
- 00:19:45.221 --> 00:19:49.992
- They can't win an ideological war.
- 00:19:49.992 --> 00:19:52.962
- They can't win a media war.
- 00:19:52.962 --> 00:19:55.531
- And so israel has partnered for the first time in my life
- 00:19:55.531 --> 00:20:00.102
- With bible believing christians to wage and fight that war.
- 00:20:00.102 --> 00:20:05.341
- And you're part of it.
- 00:20:05.341 --> 00:20:06.809
- The prime minister knows what you do.
- 00:20:06.809 --> 00:20:09.745
- He he you've met with him.
- 00:20:09.745 --> 00:20:12.148
- You're part of waging this battle
- 00:20:12.148 --> 00:20:14.417
- Because it's a battle for the mind and the heart.
- 00:20:14.417 --> 00:20:18.821
- And the tucker carlson's of this world have no comprehension.
- 00:20:18.821 --> 00:20:24.493
- They're getting jews killed.
- 00:20:24.493 --> 00:20:26.495
- The bombing we just saw of the synagogue in michigan.
- 00:20:26.495 --> 00:20:30.733
- It happened to social media.
- 00:20:30.733 --> 00:20:33.469
- It happened to the lives that they're listening to.
- 00:20:33.469 --> 00:20:36.806
- And they're they're activated by those lives.
- 00:20:36.806 --> 00:20:39.809
- And so this this is very strategic.
- 00:20:39.809 --> 00:20:42.912
- And this israel is winning.
- 00:20:42.912 --> 00:20:45.181
- They're winning. they're defeating the enemy.
- 00:20:45.181 --> 00:20:47.316
- And enemy said, oh, by the way,
- 00:20:47.316 --> 00:20:49.185
- They couldn't have done it without donald trump.
- 00:20:49.185 --> 00:20:51.354
- Yeah. it's incredible.
- 00:20:51.354 --> 00:20:52.888
- We think of genesis 12 three and the blessings
- 00:20:52.888 --> 00:20:55.024
- That come with blessing israel and the jewish people.
- 00:20:55.024 --> 00:20:57.226
- Doctor evans, look, the united states right
- 00:20:57.226 --> 00:20:58.761
- Now, shoulder to shoulder with the idf.
- 00:20:58.761 --> 00:21:02.431
- It's amazing to see,
- 00:21:02.431 --> 00:21:03.566
- I think everything president trump has done
- 00:21:03.566 --> 00:21:05.501
- The most pro-israel president by a long shot
- 00:21:05.501 --> 00:21:08.738
- In american history,
- 00:21:08.738 --> 00:21:09.672
- You can't help but think that honor god.
- 00:21:09.672 --> 00:21:12.007
- He will honor you, that america can be blessed through this.
- 00:21:12.007 --> 00:21:15.244
- The holy spirit has a way of doing astonishing things,
- 00:21:15.244 --> 00:21:19.415
- And there's never been a partnership
- 00:21:19.415 --> 00:21:21.784
- Between a prime minister and a president in history.
- 00:21:21.784 --> 00:21:24.754
- And you're right.
- 00:21:24.754 --> 00:21:26.021
- Both of them, their heroes are churchill and reagan.
- 00:21:26.021 --> 00:21:29.825
- They're both men of moral clarity.
- 00:21:29.825 --> 00:21:32.728
- They're both pragmatic men, and they both have an enormously
- 00:21:32.728 --> 00:21:36.866
- Great fault. here's what it is.
- 00:21:36.866 --> 00:21:39.268
- Neither of them have the need to be like him.
- 00:21:39.268 --> 00:21:44.039
- And that's unforgivable.
- 00:21:44.039 --> 00:21:46.375
- Unforgivable?
- 00:21:46.375 --> 00:21:47.109
- Apparently so, according
- 00:21:47.109 --> 00:21:48.277
- To the mainstream media, it certainly is.
- 00:21:48.277 --> 00:21:50.413
- Doctor evans final thoughts.
- 00:21:50.413 --> 00:21:52.181
- Big takeaways from the book.
- 00:21:52.181 --> 00:21:53.616
- Operations. rising line. midnight hammer.
- 00:21:53.616 --> 00:21:55.885
- The future for israel is going to be incredibly bright
- 00:21:55.885 --> 00:21:59.522
- As it is for the united states, thanks to two great men
- 00:21:59.522 --> 00:22:04.026
- That listen to the voice of god and have the courage
- 00:22:04.026 --> 00:22:07.663
- To do what he asked them to do.
- 00:22:07.663 --> 00:22:09.432
- Of course, we pray for the iranian people,
- 00:22:09.432 --> 00:22:11.267
- Their freedom as well.
- 00:22:11.267 --> 00:22:12.268
- Doctor mike evans, always great to see you.
- 00:22:12.268 --> 00:22:13.969
- Congrats on the book, folks.
- 00:22:13.969 --> 00:22:15.171
- You can pick it up right
- 00:22:15.171 --> 00:22:16.071
- Now, amazon.com wherever books are sold.
- 00:22:16.071 --> 00:22:17.740
- And of course, follow doctor evans across social media.
- 00:22:17.740 --> 00:22:20.276
- Visit the friends of zion heritage museum heritage center
- 00:22:20.276 --> 00:22:23.479
- In jerusalem as well. doctor evans, god bless.
- 00:22:23.479 --> 00:22:26.949
- Up next, my final
- 00:22:27.383 --> 00:22:28.551
- Thoughts on winning the war for the free world.
- 00:22:28.551 --> 00:22:32.054
- That's next.
- 00:22:32.388 --> 00:22:33.522
- Stick around.
- 00:22:33.522 --> 00:22:35.017
- Stick around.
- 00:22:35.017 --> 00:22:37.993
- Welcome back to stakelbeck tonight, folks.
- 00:22:38.861 --> 00:22:40.663
- As we wrap up here,
- 00:22:40.663 --> 00:22:41.730
- I think the moment we are in right now,
- 00:22:41.730 --> 00:22:43.265
- It could be called an ephesians six moment.
- 00:22:43.265 --> 00:22:45.868
- Whether it's battling the iranian regime
- 00:22:45.868 --> 00:22:47.736
- Or the advance of sharia law here at home.
- 00:22:47.736 --> 00:22:50.172
- Think of this,
- 00:22:50.172 --> 00:22:51.207
- For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood,
- 00:22:51.207 --> 00:22:53.476
- But against the rulers, against the authorities,
- 00:22:53.476 --> 00:22:56.045
- Against the cosmic powers over this present darkness,
- 00:22:56.045 --> 00:22:59.315
- Against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.
- 00:22:59.315 --> 00:23:03.052
- Therefore take up the whole armor of god,
- 00:23:03.052 --> 00:23:05.521
- That you may be able to
- 00:23:05.521 --> 00:23:06.755
- Withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm.
- 00:23:06.755 --> 00:23:10.926
- Stand firm, folks, tomorrow night
- 00:23:10.926 --> 00:23:12.461
- Two people who are doing exactly that, aaron molen
- 00:23:12.461 --> 00:23:15.030
- And jamie glanz off will be with us.
- 00:23:15.030 --> 00:23:16.799
- Until then, god bless you.
- 00:23:16.799 --> 00:23:19.301
- See you soon.
- 00:23:19.301 --> 00:23:19.301
