[SPEAKER_00]: All right, here we go, everything is up and running now with the Kyle landslone show.

[SPEAKER_00]: And I have just so much I got packed into this episode as the day developed more major news coming in.

[SPEAKER_00]: Maybe the most shocking thing I have read in some time.

[SPEAKER_00]: And, you know, I'm not somebody who's usually surprised by what Donald Trump says and does.

[SPEAKER_00]: I have a pretty pessimistic view of what the president is going to do.

[SPEAKER_00]: this letter to the Norwegian president or prime minister even surprised me or Trump wrote again this is a letter that he said to another head of state considering your country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped eight wars plus [SPEAKER_00]: I no longer feel any obligation to think purely a piece, although it will always be predominant.

[SPEAKER_00]: But can now think about what's good and proper for the United States of America.

[SPEAKER_00]: Then I cannot, then I cannot protect that land from Russia or China, and why do they have a right of ownership anyways?

[SPEAKER_00]: I have done more for NATO than any other person since its founding, and now NATO should do something for the United States.

[SPEAKER_00]: The world is not secure unless we have complete and total control of Greenland.

[SPEAKER_00]: So here is Donald Trump sending a letter to the Norwegian government demanding a chastizing them for not giving him the Nobel Peace Prize last year and saying, because of this, [SPEAKER_00]: He's changing his foreign policy that the foreign policy even if he was right, which he's not the Norwegian Prime Minister, I believe issue is statement after say he's already explained to Trump that this is an independent committee that hands out this award, not the actual government itself.

[SPEAKER_00]: But on top of that, even if the government maybe has a little influence in Swiss, not like they give out this award, but on top of that, this is a foreign government, and based on whether Donald Trump gets the award or not, he says that this changes his foreign policy, how he looks at the landscape.

[SPEAKER_00]: It's absolutely baffling because this really does say that Trump is basing his policy around what international awards and as Galatika get, not what's best for the United States of America.

[SPEAKER_00]: Um, on top of that, uh, you know, Donald Trump actually does have the Nobel Peace Prize.

[SPEAKER_00]: The Nobel Peace Prize winner, uh, Maria Machado from the Venezuelan opposition figure who took the Nobel Peace Prize put around her neck.

[SPEAKER_00]: And then called for the United States to invade and sange in her country and then of course once the United States did that and kidnapped the country's president Trump dismissed her saying, ah, she doesn't have the popular support me to lead the country.

[SPEAKER_00]: But even after that, she actually gifted the Nobel Peace Prize to Donald Trump.

[SPEAKER_00]: She gave her award to him.

[SPEAKER_00]: So he has the physical award.

[SPEAKER_00]: But because when you go on Wikipedia on into the future, and you say who won the Nobel Peace Prize in 2025, is going to say Ms.

Machado and not Mr.

Trump.

[SPEAKER_00]: And because of that, he says that he's changing his foreign policy to be more American centric.

[SPEAKER_00]: Well, if that was actually true, first of all, what the hell is an American?

[SPEAKER_00]: What has he been doing the past year that his first priority wasn't what's best for the United States of America in the first place, not that he's actually done their plans to do that, but he's saying here that that wasn't even his foreign policy goal this whole first year.

[SPEAKER_00]: It's very alarming if he's saying, Hey, I'm now going to be more unrestrained during this year.

[SPEAKER_00]: He claims he should have won the Nobel Peace Prize, he fuel the proxy more in Ukraine.

[SPEAKER_00]: He sent the largest arm steel ever with Taiwan.

[SPEAKER_00]: He bombed Iran.

[SPEAKER_00]: He bombed Somalia record pace.

[SPEAKER_00]: He bombed ISIS in Syria.

[SPEAKER_00]: After the alkaid government there killed three U.S.

soldiers, so confusing why did that?

[SPEAKER_00]: He bombed our suspected drawboats in Latin America and the Eastern Pacific, and he kidnapped the president of Venezuela, all while threatening probably a half dozen to another dozen countries.

[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, [SPEAKER_00]: The strikes in Nigeria, I forgot about those.

[SPEAKER_00]: So he thinks that that record should have won him in Nobel Peace Prize But now he says, I'm going to be more unrestrained and you really worry that this does mean that he is considering a major action when it comes to Greenland Now, I'm not quite so that he's actually going to cut out what is a military invasion that people actually recognize as a military invasion [SPEAKER_00]: But I really do think this is all centered around Trump's ego and what he considers building his legacy.

[SPEAKER_00]: And so he wants, again, every school child in the United States to look at a piece of the map.

[SPEAKER_00]: Greenland is going to be colored in the same as the United States and they're going to wonder why.

[SPEAKER_00]: There's a big chunk of American territory disconnected from the rest of the country.

[SPEAKER_00]: In his mind, every school teacher will talk about how the great Donald Trump expanded the United States more than any president had in a hundred years and added this really important mineral-rich territory to the United States.

[SPEAKER_00]: Other benefits with the tech industry building, data center there, the minerals available.

[SPEAKER_00]: I really think very little of this is about actual security, actual concerns that Russia or China are going to invade and take it over.

[SPEAKER_00]: Ukraine is right in that store to Russia, by the way, and they can't complete an invasion of that country.

[SPEAKER_00]: So how the hell are they going to manage to invade and occupy [SPEAKER_00]: Greenland, when it's NATO, this is Danish colony, so it's a part, and protected under the NATO alliance.

[SPEAKER_00]: Completely absurd.

[SPEAKER_00]: How would China do this?

[SPEAKER_00]: How would China maintain the supply lines to keep their military bases occupied in Greenland?

[SPEAKER_00]: It's a complete...

[SPEAKER_00]: fiction, that this could possibly happen, and Trump's whole idea behind it is, oh, once is controlled by America, we'll have American protection, but it already has that under NATO.

[SPEAKER_00]: So, our, our president is really unhinged.

[SPEAKER_00]: He feels completely unrestrained, and everything he does is about how he believes his legacy is going to be perceived, and because the man is an absolute lunatic, the legacy he wants to create, isn't actually [SPEAKER_00]: By doing the dirty work necessary to make this country great again to give Americans more economic chances at home, bring down prices, make home ownership more available.

[SPEAKER_00]: No, it's going to be waging wars overseas, toppling governments, kidnapping their leaders, easing territory even from our lives states.

[SPEAKER_00]: All right, so now let's get into why Ashley had planned to talk about for today's show.

[SPEAKER_00]: Why didn't Trump attack Iran?

[SPEAKER_00]: This is a big question.

[SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to do my best to answer in the narrative that I think made most sense.

[SPEAKER_00]: Maryam Adelson and Pam Bondi are [SPEAKER_00]: Community in a war on free speech, and we'll hear what they have to say about that.

[SPEAKER_00]: And last up, if we have time, Dave Smith, Destroyed Dinesh disus in a debate last week, and I got some Dinesh's responses to this that I wanted to go through.

[SPEAKER_00]: All right, let's start off here with Iran and the most, you know, just foolish sender that we have in the United States, Lindsey Graham.

[SPEAKER_07]: So sure, they're very good ally right now.

[SPEAKER_07]: If the media reports are true, that the Arab countries intervened on behalf of Iran to stop the size of action that was promised, that if the Arab countries are okay with the Iran's idolist gang in power, and they feel like the slaughter of people we've encouraged to go out into the streets is not necessary to stop, then they're not a very good ally.

[SPEAKER_07]: My entire opinion of the Arab world alliance.

[SPEAKER_05]: Wait a minute.

[SPEAKER_05]: Wait a minute.

[SPEAKER_05]: No.

[SPEAKER_07]: No.

[SPEAKER_07]: No.

[SPEAKER_07]: No.

[SPEAKER_07]: To the Arab world.

[SPEAKER_07]: I've tried to be very hopeful to build on the Abraham records.

[SPEAKER_07]: But this idea of saying one thing behind closed doors.

[SPEAKER_07]: and something else in public is coming to an end.

[SPEAKER_07]: If you did, in fact, an intervening to stop this action, that means you really don't understand what America's interstore and your own interest.

[SPEAKER_07]: How can you ask President Trump to do that after he's encouraged people to go out in the streets?

[SPEAKER_07]: Risk their own lives.

[SPEAKER_07]: That is such a narrow view and a distorted view, and quite frankly, a sick view of what to do.

[SPEAKER_07]: I don't want to be aligned with that.

[SPEAKER_00]: So anytime Lady Lindsay is this upset, the rest of us should all be overjoyed.

[SPEAKER_00]: That means there was a potential for a war and it didn't happen.

[SPEAKER_00]: So that's good news.

[SPEAKER_00]: What Lindsay Graham is all bent out of shape here is last week and as we were recording this show, last Wednesday, there are a lot of reports that the US was preparing to attack Iran.

[SPEAKER_00]: And this wasn't just speculation, [SPEAKER_00]: People reacting to Trump making bolsterous remarks.

[SPEAKER_00]: The military everybody was prepared for this.

[SPEAKER_00]: Flights were being shut down in the Middle East.

[SPEAKER_00]: Everybody felt strides were coming.

[SPEAKER_00]: Ultimately they don't happen.

[SPEAKER_00]: And so Lindsey Graham is mad.

[SPEAKER_00]: He, he's had dreams of overthrowing the Iatola removing that government for four decades.

[SPEAKER_00]: Now, [SPEAKER_00]: And he was going to get his wish to see a bunch of Iranians blown to bids by American bombs and the Islamic Republic to fall in Iran to become a failed state.

[SPEAKER_00]: That's what Lindsey Graham's wanted, and that's why he's so upset here.

[SPEAKER_00]: And the rest of us again should all be happy that at least for now we have averted this conflict.

[SPEAKER_00]: But what Lindsey Graham does, [SPEAKER_00]: Right, he can't blame Trump.

[SPEAKER_00]: He can't blame not Yahoo.

[SPEAKER_00]: So he blames the Arab states.

[SPEAKER_00]: He blames Qatar and Saudi Arabia in the UAE.

[SPEAKER_00]: For saying, we don't want this war in the Middle East.

[SPEAKER_00]: Well, why wouldn't Saudi the Qataris, the Emirates, want to war in the Middle East?

[SPEAKER_00]: Because their countries are full of American air bases and military bases and naval bases.

[SPEAKER_00]: And if the US goes to war with Iran, if we tried to destroy their government, the Iranian military is going to respond.

[SPEAKER_00]: And they don't have missiles that can reach the United States of America.

[SPEAKER_00]: But they do have a lot of missiles that can reach the US bases in Qatar and Saudi Arabia and the Emirates.

[SPEAKER_00]: And so these countries don't want to get caught in the middle of a US and Iranian war, which they will.

[SPEAKER_00]: This is purely for their own self-interest and their survival of their own country.

[SPEAKER_00]: And Lindsey Graham is outraged, and he's mad, he's saying that, you know, they're supporting evil and they're the worst people in the world.

[SPEAKER_00]: All those they're doing is trying to prevent their country from being involved in a war that they don't want.

[SPEAKER_00]: Not to mention, all these countries, they do have agreements and some, you know, building relationships with the Ron and they understand that if the U.S.

goes to war with the Ron and there's massive warfare out in the Persian Gulf that's going to hurt all their ship in their oil trade and exports and things like that.

[SPEAKER_00]: So these countries are acting in their self-interest and Lindsey Graham's upset.

[SPEAKER_00]: Now, if Lindsey Graham really wants to be mad at the people responsible, [SPEAKER_00]: For the war in Iran, not going through, then you should look at Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu.

[SPEAKER_00]: This is from Axios, the order never came behind the scenes of Trump's Iran pullback and the article explains US officials said on Wednesday that there was a serious expectation inside the administration and belief in capitals across the Middle East including Iran that Trump would greenlight the strike.

[SPEAKER_00]: U.S.

troops began evacuating from the air base in Qatar, and the Navy's fifth fleece base in Bahrain.

[SPEAKER_00]: The Iranian regime was convinced a U.S.

attack was coming and issued a notice closing its airspace.

[SPEAKER_00]: It wasn't fake or a ruse, a U.S.

official said, while it's hard to get inside Trump's head [SPEAKER_00]: Several U.S.

officials said Netanyahu's warning and briefings from the Trump team about threats to U.S.

forces from martinian retaliation, war, significant factors.

[SPEAKER_00]: So what happened?

[SPEAKER_00]: It was Benjamin and Yahoo, a few hours before Trump is supposed to order these strikes.

[SPEAKER_00]: He calls Trump and he says, look, we're not prepared for the Iranian retaliation.

[SPEAKER_00]: And when he says, we, he doesn't necessarily mean the Israelis because the Israelis have the air defense systems they have, he means the Americans.

[SPEAKER_00]: since the war in June, the U.S.

has moved two aircraft carrier strike groups and at that missile system out of the Middle East.

[SPEAKER_00]: Now the [SPEAKER_00]: destroyers in the aircraft carrier strike groups, and there's usually like three to sit to them in a strike group, all carry the SM sits interceptors, and the ages of short interceptors, which are really critical for Israel shooting down the incoming Iranian missiles, and without those ships and all the warplanes and other assets in the Middle East to help the Israelis down these missiles, Israel understands their vulnerable.

[SPEAKER_00]: Additionally, without the aircraft carrier strike group in the Middle East, the US was somewhat limited on its military options for Iran.

[SPEAKER_00]: In a different statement, Lindsey Graham talks about, well, there's a smaller option, and then there's maybe a larger option.

[SPEAKER_00]: And so I think what Trump saw is that the smaller option would do enough to take out the Iranian government, or at least his advisors around him told him that, [SPEAKER_00]: And so he elected to defer and not get that strikes right away.

[SPEAKER_00]: Now the U.S.

is moving more military assets into the region.

[SPEAKER_00]: And so I think it's more likely to see a strike maybe not within the coming week, but within the coming months.

[SPEAKER_00]: Once the aircraft carrier strike group and other military assets are in place, not only to defend Israel from Iranian retaliation but the U.S.

military assets in the Middle East.

[SPEAKER_00]: It's important to remember that while this could all be for show, it does cost a lot of money to move all these military assets around.

[SPEAKER_00]: It's not a single tank of gas to get an aircraft carrier [SPEAKER_00]: For my think it was in East Asia somewhere, to the Middle East, this state's time, it takes money, moving all the other warplanes and other military assets around the Middle East, deploying other US forces there.

[SPEAKER_00]: This is all expensive, and so I do think this is more than a show force, it's a real build-up towards war with Iran, and the point was, and the reason the strike stand happened last week, the US, and maybe more importantly Israel really wasn't ready for it.

[SPEAKER_00]: I want to get into some of the discussion in the White House around who was advocating for and against strides, this article from Isriah Hayam, how Trump stopped the strides on Iran at the last minute, and I think this is really crucial.

[SPEAKER_00]: A source close to the White House said Vice President J.D.

[SPEAKER_00]: Vance, usually associated with more isolationist views, adopted a hawkish line this time.

[SPEAKER_00]: He argued Trump had drawn a public red line by warning to Ron against killing protesters and therefore had to enforce it.

[SPEAKER_00]: Now this is really big, this is a major shift, and I think for all of us, it should be a deal breaker with JD van's going forward.

[SPEAKER_00]: One of the reasons that people are somewhat optimistic for the second Trump presidency was told to gather to maybe more importantly JD van's we're going to be in significant positions in the White House.

[SPEAKER_00]: And these are two politicians who have spent their entire careers, most of them at least, [SPEAKER_00]: They would point to a rock in Afghanistan and Syria and all the other regime change conflicts we've gotten into in the Middle East and over the years.

[SPEAKER_00]: They agree, they acknowledge they understand that this made America weaker that when we spent billions, trillions of dollars of from our treasury, we sent thousands of our young men to their desk and we got absolutely nothing of benefit for the American people.

[SPEAKER_00]: And so to have that voice in the White House was going to be extremely important.

[SPEAKER_00]: And then, at the most crucial moment, when we're on the brink of war with Iran, that voice is not telling President Trump.

[SPEAKER_00]: You don't want to recreate a rock in Iran.

[SPEAKER_00]: You don't want to get embroiled in another regime change operation in the Middle East.

[SPEAKER_00]: This will be a catastrophe, Mr.

President.

[SPEAKER_00]: You cannot do this.

[SPEAKER_00]: No, he was playing to Trump's ego in saying, you set a red line.

[SPEAKER_00]: You told the Iranian people that if they protest it and they got killed, you would take out the regime.

[SPEAKER_00]: And so now regardless of what's best for the American people, what my political philosophy is, you must do this.

[SPEAKER_00]: That's absolute psychotic lunacy, right there.

[SPEAKER_00]: We should all be absolutely terrified that the people around Donald Trump are morons.

[SPEAKER_00]: Right?

[SPEAKER_00]: J.D.

[SPEAKER_00]: Vance knows all the better that this would be a catastrophe for the United States.

[SPEAKER_00]: And yet he's arguing that Trump should go through with it to back up his red line.

[SPEAKER_00]: In these, I'm sure playing on here this idea that oh Obama was weak because he didn't enforce his red line in Syria and didn't take out Assad after the allegations of chemical weapons attached which weren't even true, but you know that's what they're playing on here that you're going to be weak like Obama if you don't back up your red line.

[SPEAKER_00]: And I really think this sets kind of a standard that Trump is going to have to do something [SPEAKER_00]: to back up his words because even JD vans is calling him out in a way.

[SPEAKER_00]: Now, that article details too that there was some opposition, they say opposing them the advocates for regime change, where Trump's Middle East envoy Steve Wickoff and his White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles.

[SPEAKER_00]: And so I just want to point out that Wickoff [SPEAKER_00]: It does seem to be the biggest restrainer in the government at this point who has a moderate amount of influence still, so that was good to see.

[SPEAKER_00]: And Susie Wiles, I don't think there's any particular philosophy when it comes to foreign policy on what she supports or what she doesn't.

[SPEAKER_00]: But maybe she's just a rational person in the military, the military advisors were telling Trump like.

[SPEAKER_00]: Not only do we not have the military assets in the region, for sure not out the Iranian government in a single strike.

[SPEAKER_00]: We also don't have the assets in the region to protect our own soldiers.

[SPEAKER_00]: And she would say for that reason, we shouldn't do that.

[SPEAKER_00]: So I think that White House debate is really interesting and really important.

[SPEAKER_00]: And it gives us a really important insight on JD Vance, who likely will be on top of the Republican ticket in 2028 or top to tender.

[SPEAKER_00]: We're going to move on here and talk about some remarks from Maryam Adelson and our Attorney General Pam Bondi.

[SPEAKER_00]: I think this first one is Adelson.

[SPEAKER_03]: You and Sheldon created a lot of relationship over the years with politicians at the state level, especially at the federal level.

[SPEAKER_03]: I want you to share with everyone, why is it so important and how do you do it?

[SPEAKER_03]: Again, writing checks is part of it, but there is more than writing checks.

[SPEAKER_03]: So how do you do it?

[SPEAKER_02]: Can you allow me not to answer?

[SPEAKER_00]: So we could just end the clip there, that's the only relevant part.

[SPEAKER_00]: The reason that she can't answer that question, the reason she says, I can allow me not to answer, because all she does is write chats.

[SPEAKER_00]: That's her whole game.

[SPEAKER_00]: She owns a large number of our politicians on particular issues.

[SPEAKER_00]: It's not that she describes all their votes when it comes to how they're going to vote on immigration issues or economic issues, but when it comes to the Middle East, [SPEAKER_00]: She owns the boat of so many of our politicians because of the chats her and her husband have written over the years.

[SPEAKER_00]: Now, I think as Americans, we should all have a very visceral reaction to this.

[SPEAKER_00]: This woman who clearly has a very strong Gatsen, right?

[SPEAKER_00]: She's not.

[SPEAKER_00]: From the United States of America owns our politicians and the president has talked about it openly A recent month since he's returned to the White House and people ask her these questions openly at conferences that are supporting her and goal So it's not like these are [SPEAKER_00]: People making avasarial remarks are trying to smear and slander her.

[SPEAKER_00]: They're just saying the opion open in obvious truth, which is her and her husband have written hundreds of millions of dollars in chets to Trump and primarily other republicans.

[SPEAKER_00]: And that money has bought their support for the state of Israel.

[SPEAKER_00]: Not the United States.

[SPEAKER_00]: We have [SPEAKER_00]: A major person in the United States, a billionaire in the United States, from I guess Palestine originally, but now from Israel, and she is writing chats to our politicians to buy her their votes on the issue that matters most to her, which is a foreign country.

[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know how there's not massive outrage with this, but it does get even worse here as a Maryamadelsin introducing Pam Bondi to talk about the U.S.

Crattown on speech.

[SPEAKER_02]: Her leadership, the Department of Justice, has made combating anti-Semitism a top priority, especially in response to the alarming rise.

[SPEAKER_02]: in incidents following October 7.

[SPEAKER_02]: She brings moral clarity, resolve and an unwavering commitment to justice, to this critical fight.

[SPEAKER_02]: Please welcome my friend, the 87th Atonit General of the United States, Pamela Bondi, [SPEAKER_04]: Miriam Adelson is amazing what she has done for Israel, for our country and for this world is second to none.

[SPEAKER_04]: Thank you, my friend.

[SPEAKER_04]: The sad truth is for way too long anti-Semitism has been allowed to grow unchecked in this country.

[SPEAKER_04]: Too many institutions have abdicated their moral responsibility to speak up.

[SPEAKER_04]: Too many so-called leaders have stayed quiet.

[SPEAKER_04]: Actions have consequences.

[SPEAKER_04]: And inaction has consequences.

[SPEAKER_00]: So post it there, Chris.

[SPEAKER_00]: Now, I do want to just point out.

[SPEAKER_00]: I see that Chad is very active, happy to see all of you in there.

[SPEAKER_00]: If you are in the chat, make sure to subscribe to the show.

[SPEAKER_00]: We are live every Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday at 445 Eastern.

[SPEAKER_00]: If you're in the edge chat, or if you're watching on that's head on over to YouTube, subscribe to the show.

[SPEAKER_00]: It really helps us out.

[SPEAKER_00]: We're trying to break through the algorithm here.

[SPEAKER_00]: It's not easy, your comments, your lights, and all that make a big difference for us.

[SPEAKER_00]: So I want to start off here by just remarking, I think the most nefarious part about what Pam Bondi is saying here is she's the attorney general, right?

[SPEAKER_00]: She's like the top law enforcement in the United States of America.

[SPEAKER_00]: And she's saying that the problem isn't just people making anti-Semitic posts, which, of course, we all know what they would say is an anti-Semitic post is just either an anti-Israeli or a pro-Palestinian post, an anti-genicide post, right?

[SPEAKER_00]: But they're in call that anti-Israel.

[SPEAKER_00]: She's saying that there's a problem that people aren't speaking out, right?

[SPEAKER_00]: That there are people who just don't care about this particular issue, or don't care enough to say that, Oh, that person's bad because they're pro-Palestinian.

[SPEAKER_00]: Right, this is...

[SPEAKER_00]: Pure left wing political rhetoric here that we have denounced so many times over the past 10 years.

[SPEAKER_00]: This idea that you have to condemn everything, that everybody has to, you know, say, oh, that's racist and that person's bad.

[SPEAKER_00]: And now it's anti-Semitism in the, uh, [SPEAKER_00]: A Tarty general right here is absolutely laying it out that silence is not an option.

[SPEAKER_00]: You have to be pro Israel.

[SPEAKER_00]: Let's keep rolling the clip.

[SPEAKER_04]: Gives to violent protestors under the face act for intimidating Jewish Americans worshipping at synagogues.

[SPEAKER_04]: This is the first time since it's passage the face act in 1994 that it has been used to protect a house of worship.

[SPEAKER_04]: Working with Secretary Linda McMahon, who has been a champion for you as well, and harming.

[SPEAKER_04]: We have secured a $200 million settlement with Columbia University for violating the civil rights of Jewish students.

[SPEAKER_04]: And Jewish employees, we've secured a $75 million settlement with Northwestern University for anti-Semitic Honda.

[SPEAKER_04]: We've secured a $60 million settlement with Cornell that includes provisions to halt anti-Semitic [SPEAKER_04]: And we launched a full investigation into University of California System for systematic anti-Semitism.

[SPEAKER_00]: All right, so pause it there.

[SPEAKER_00]: This is just absolutely unbelievable that our attorney general is bragging about using the Department of Justice to control the narrative on an issue for a foreign government.

[SPEAKER_00]: Again, it would be one thing.

[SPEAKER_00]: I still think it would be wrong.

[SPEAKER_00]: It would be a violation on the first amendment.

[SPEAKER_00]: But if she was just solely talking about cracking down on Americans who were engaged in anti-American speech, you at least could see how that fits into the Trumpum Brella of Maga and American first.

[SPEAKER_00]: Again, I think it's anti-American.

[SPEAKER_00]: I think it's anti-constitutional violation of free speech, but at least that fits into the mold.

[SPEAKER_00]: This idea that we need to crack again, anti-Semitism doesn't mean people going around impaining swastika on the doors of Jewish houses or something insane and anti-Semitic.

[SPEAKER_00]: She's talking here purely about these universities not doing enough to prevent students from protesting either for the Palestinians against the genocide or against the special [SPEAKER_00]: We cannot allow our justice department to control the narrative, the political discussion in this country, particularly not one is for the benefit of another foreign country.

[SPEAKER_00]: All right, so last week, there was a phenomenal debate between Dave Smith and Dinesh disusia on the zero-head debate circuit.

[SPEAKER_00]: I think it was actually on the judges of judging freedom channel on YouTube.

[SPEAKER_00]: Tons of people turned in and Dave Smith just destroyed Dinesh disusia.

[SPEAKER_00]: I remember like halfway through the debate Dinesh was like, [SPEAKER_00]: Your only example of a failed regime changes the Iraq war and then Dave absolutely blew that out of the water and everything else he said But afterwards, as most losers of public debates do, they run to ads and they post some clips in themselves and they say, ah, look, here I actually run the debate, one the debate.

[SPEAKER_00]: So, [SPEAKER_00]: This is a couple clips that didn't actually post it, right?

[SPEAKER_00]: So this isn't like me cherry picking some clips of the national looking bad during the debate.

[SPEAKER_00]: This is actually what he thought his highlights of the debate were.

[SPEAKER_00]: So let's roll this first clip.

[SPEAKER_06]: The United States, right in the aftermath of World War II, enforced regime change on a whole bunch of societies, including notably Japan and Germany, and the results have been excellent.

[SPEAKER_06]: Inumerable examples of regime change, Chachesku was out in Romania where tyrannical governments were out in East Germany and Poland in Bulgaria.

[SPEAKER_06]: Is anyone going to say that regime change in the Soviet Union was not a good idea when the Communist Party abolished itself and got rid of it?

[SPEAKER_01]: But what he leaves out there is the tens of millions of civilians that had to be slaughtered in order to do that.

[SPEAKER_01]: And the decades and decades and decades of military occupation that followed.

[SPEAKER_01]: And so if you're telling me that anyone in the United States of America has the stomach for anything like that right now, we both know that's just completely off the table.

[SPEAKER_01]: Even if you can get past the little pesky morality of it, there's just no way that anyone has the stomach or the political will for anything like that today.

[SPEAKER_01]: The fact is that if you're going to do a regime change, well, the only way to really have a say in what government follows is you have to militarily occupy the place.

[SPEAKER_01]: You guys with your regime change, you know, philosophy, you have a Holocaust worth of dead people on your conscience.

[SPEAKER_06]: We haven't been subject to a world where two style attack.

[SPEAKER_06]: If the Chinese came over and let's just say bomb Chicago and took out the city, I think we'd have a lot of appetite for responding very aggressively.

[SPEAKER_06]: You said that if you knock out the government, you have a responsibility to go and run the country.

[SPEAKER_06]: False false and false again.

[SPEAKER_06]: All you have to do is go and find the rival thugs.

[SPEAKER_06]: who are more friendly to you and say to them in this case by the way they happen to be called the Northern Alliance we're giving the country to you when the British for example defeated an opponent they didn't necessarily feel we've got to go over there no you basically get your friends in there and they deal with you on a different basis than the bad guys [SPEAKER_00]: So again, this is what the best things made him look good in that debate, where we have all these examples of failed regime change wars in U.S.

military conflicts over the past three decades.

[SPEAKER_00]: My entire lifetime, I'm 35 years old.

[SPEAKER_00]: My entire lifetime is just one failed U.S.

military invention intervention after another.

[SPEAKER_00]: That made the world less stable, that didn't advance American interests, that cost the American people money and cost the lives of our young men and women sent to fight in those conflicts.

[SPEAKER_00]: And he rolls it all the way back to World War II and says, look at the successes of Japan and Germany.

[SPEAKER_00]: But we still subsidize the defenses of those countries all this time later.

[SPEAKER_00]: So yes, they are still oriented in the American alliance, you know, American block now.

[SPEAKER_00]: But it's not as if Germany would still panic if we left NATO.

[SPEAKER_00]: Japan would panic if we left East Asia.

[SPEAKER_00]: They would say no you have to say you have to keep your tens of thousands of troops that we still have in these countries.

[SPEAKER_00]: And sure, the troops in Japan and Germany are no longer out trying to pacify the people who are opposed to the U.S.

occupation, because they've accepted it, this point, and they've found ways to benefit off being a part of the American Empire.

[SPEAKER_00]: And, you know, subsidizer defense by having the American people pay for it.

[SPEAKER_00]: But this is not an example of why we should go in Caduta regime change operation today.

[SPEAKER_00]: Smashin Dimash's argument, hammering on the morality point, right?

[SPEAKER_00]: Like people just like to say, oh, you know, Germany and Japan were huge assesses.

[SPEAKER_00]: Well, we dropped two nuclear bombs on Japan and fire bombs most of their cities.

[SPEAKER_00]: We, [SPEAKER_00]: Killed millions of people in Germany in World War II, right?

[SPEAKER_00]: We completely reduce many of their cities to rubble.

[SPEAKER_00]: Americans, rightly, don't have any stomach for that today, right?

[SPEAKER_00]: We don't want to see our government have to go into Iran, destroy most of their cities, killed 3 million people, and then have [SPEAKER_00]: 10, 2030,000 of our troops in that country for the next seven decades while our government dumps billions of dollars into it in order to claim that we somehow made the Middle East a better place.

[SPEAKER_00]: Americans don't believe this anymore.

[SPEAKER_00]: All right, everyone.

[SPEAKER_00]: That's where I'm going to wrap it up today.
