Period where I pressed the stop streaming button and pressed the start streaming button

it is because I, you know, I care about you guys and I want to put that shit on.
That's it. Looking like a hip professor. Yeah. Anyway, last night at the broadcast after
the one liberal team versus 20 Trump supporters broke my brain. After that, I had to, you know,
reset the vibes by watching a shit ton of Luffy and co fight against unjustifiable hierarchies,
no matter where they are, no matter how powerful they might seem. So that's what I did. We're in
Wano right now, Wano territory, Wano country, Wano is only 30 episodes left. And I'm actually
very uh very excited the streets called it they're calling you mr. put that shit on that's right
Yeah, the AI the AI cover for this is just kind of terrible. I'm not gonna lie. But anyway folks boys girls and bees
We got a lot to talk about okay. We got a lot to talk about in the news
But as far as personal news goes I'm gonna blow through it real quick. I'm a pastor real quick. I'm gonna do my thing
um
I'm gonna do my thing. I'm gonna do my dang thing
So
How did it go seeing this?
really good
Really really good
That isn't real right? No, it's not real. Thank you. Joseph 33 for the 10 to 1 give the subs
God damn, what was that everyone? Oh, yeah, Wano is great. I can't wait to get the egg head
Obviously things are getting a lot better
Things are getting a lot better in terms of like the arc itself
but went to bed last night early. Okay. Woke up early. You already know what it is. Uh,
will go early went to do leg day. Now Fridays are my leg days, but the problem is yesterday
I went a little nutty mode, a little crazy, right? I went a little crazy mode on the
basketball courts. I was dunking and shit. Y'all saw that Robin's Tata's are out
an egghead. Hurry up. Oh my God. Are you serious? We got a, we got some tatas on the,
we almost got some sneak previews on the top top front in this art too. But yeah, uh, in
any case, uh, one, my lawyer is slandering me. Okay. Let me just point out that my
freaking lawyer, Alexander Lollover ruled is slandering me or in his nerdy ass epic
reddit debate bro voice and slander is done via
voice uh... libel is done written it's actually libel okay you're libeling me
okay shut up lowell
it's messed up
my jobless lawyer is is too busy creating
a job for himself which is a defamation case coming down his way
anyway uh... but
more importantly than that like i uh... one of the
The boy did 308 per five.
I almost fuckin' tripped myself by the way.
Look at this.
I was so invested in hitting those heels.
Look.
Okay, first one is never that good.
Boom.
Please stop using the same song.
I hate it.
Well, I'm not going to.
But the fifth one it was it was hard it was hard
Wine about a fans isn't fear and most the outside of wine about it cutie gets the yard. Yes. She's wrong. I
Don't know why cutie thinks that wine about it in and the yard would have more crossover when she's literally a goddamn
Host on fear and he was kind of strange watching you do squats
Well, let me tell you it felt kind of strange putting all that weight up there, too
but uh yeah honestly the boy is Brawlick you already know it's the Brawlick boy it's
the Brawlick boy okay it's the Brawlick boy being Brawlick calm down Kaya rip pants moment
coming anytime soon yeah honestly I mean my ass is so fucking fat I might as well be
ripping that shit overall decent decent leg day not super excited about 308 obviously
I'm seeing a lot more gains on the deadlift front and I thought that that would also translate
potentially to the squat front as well. But honestly, it hasn't. But it's not bad. I'll
take it. I'll take it. What's with the matrix fit? I just wanted to put that shit on, dude.
I'm Mr. Put that shit on. Also another journalist, another prominent air quotes journalist
from New York, slandering me again. Everyone is in New, everyone in New York is out to get
me all because they were jealous of my rank in the Adams Polycule. I never had to clean
the dishes due to my sensory issues. And now all of those problems are coming out to
the forefront. Okay. Alex Press, Jacob in doing fake news again, Feds charge mayor with
giving Turkey favors in exchange for airline flights and appearing on a Sompiker stream,
hearing that there's a particularly well known Turkish influencer who might be
caught up in all this. All of the Alexes are turning on me. All of the, just because I was the only one in the polycule not named Alex. And therefore I got additional amenities such as not having to do the dishes and not having to actually do shower time does not change, does not change the reality that like these things did not happen. Okay, I hate this slander. Stop it. Also, here, I'm Mr put that shit on as you already fucking know. All right. Mr put that shit on.
I'm new to your stream. But what do you think of super sets? I love super sets. Yeah. To them
I say, may my haters be my waiters at the table of success. Okay. That's where we're
at. So chew ID. It's the Bodie Nike collab. Those are the shoes. Got the bodies on the
toes. He's okay. Okay. Yeah. They are virtually good luck. They're virtually impossible
the fund. Okay, good luck. If you were lucky, you could have got it. You could have gotten
it for 160 retail. But not many are lucky. Okay, now they're going for like, I don't
even know what they're going for, but I think they're going for like 1000 a pop or some
shit. But your boys got connects. Shout out dude. I'm 30 today. Congratulations, chatter.
You're an old now just like me. Um, but yeah, these are the ones. They're a little
slim I'll be honest they're a little slim like I'm not I'm not gonna say that they are
they're definitely a little tight on the sides get a pair of hokas instead for a price uh your
feet won't hurt I just like the fucking shoes I got them for retail but like I said I don't even
know how like it's not like I try super fucking hard for this shit I just get really lucky like
like what the Doc Martens do,
like the Doc Martens Rick Owens collab I got for retail
and it's like, when you get these shoes for retail
it's like a perfectly normal price
but the problem is like, you can't really get this ship
for, you can't really get the ship for retail.
So on the resale, it's like $1,000 for the shoe
which is ass, you know what I mean?
It's like ridiculous.
They do look like the Cortezes but I think they're,
I mean, they're sleek man, they're really nice.
I really like them like happy thursday bro is friday through sneaker scalpers are the worst
yeah i've been trying to find those doxies you first show them around march i haven't been able
to find them in retail in my size honestly the thing is if you're really into if you're really
really fucking into uh clothing and you know when they're gonna launch if you're really
in a clothing and you know when they're gonna launch you can probably nab them
sneak your scalpers to the landlords of fashion yeah i just get lucky is there an update on your
roge on motors they're clean they're they're done they they got cleaned up they did it they did it uh
they did the damn thing those boots sold out in two minutes i was a spanish class but i was
trying to buy it but i was too late yeah i don't know how the fuck i got a retail bro i genuinely
Maybe it's because I'm a size 13
That literally could be the reason and like many people don't actually buy size 13. I don't know maybe
but like I always am
Incredibly fucking lucky with these kinds of shoes
I'm incredibly lucky with these kinds of shoes like when it comes to purchasing a retail. I
don't know
Yeah, see the the boots the boots are $800 now
like the ones I'm was wearing which is by the way still cheaper than Rick Owen shoes
even though it's literally better than Rick Owens boots you know wait what the
fuck past company wrote about me crazy it's ass though like I'll be honest it
is totally unacceptable and totally fucking ass for nice pair of boots like
that to go up to $800 when you can buy them for fucking 270 when it first came
amount. 800 for fashion boots is insane. Get some. No, no, no. Eight. Listen, guys, 800
is an insane amount to pay for boots. I 100% agree with you. I'm simply stating that $800
is still cheaper than Rick Owens normal shit that you can get for Rick Owens boots. But
it's just like it's ridiculous. You know what I mean? I don't really like the Rick
almost boots anyway. But $370 or I think I got it for like $270 or $370 whatever it was
for retail like that is for Doc Martens is really good. Can you do a swear free stream?
My six year old wants to watch a stream. That would be virtually impossible for me. The
quality boost for $300 is normal. Yeah. A leftist in $800 boots is so goofy looking.
all, I didn't buy it for $800. And secondly, I mean, yeah, I spent like 200 on a nice pair of boots
and it was still shit quality. I feel like everything is worse now. Like all the clothing are all the
clothing is just worse overall. How was it better than mainline rig? My friend still wears his
fashion week 11 centers of boots and it wore it and wore in perfectly. I think the Doc Martens
Oans collab boots look better than the regular Rick Owens boots. That's all I'm saying. Okay
That's my take
Fuck the fashion and all this stuff. There's a lot going on in the world. We're gonna be we're gonna be talking about that
Okay, bb talks at un
Because there's a lot going on Israel strikes, baby root is bb talks at un
we're gonna be talking about that we don't even know what the fucking death toll is at
this point you know it's it's pretty devastating overall oh a couple more a couple more personal
news before I blast off hold on where is it where is it where is it here a lot of you
want me to look at this before we get to the bay route stuff last off me move you
on the New York Post cover. Okay, you know what? That's a pretty good one. All right. Yeah. This is
what you want me to talk about. Gaming streaming star Rachel Vagrae Hofstadter launches anime focus

Yeah, Slay Queening, Gaslight and Gatekeeping. She is lapping you. Yeah, of course dude.
I am an incredibly, I'm an incredibly fortunate person to be surrounded by friends who are
are endlessly talented and incredibly successful
and much better than me in every way, shape and form.
But yeah, this seems super stupid.

voice acting gig for once. Jesus Christ.
Yeah. They're hitting from outside the club. Yeah. It's like, it's crazy. Cause like this

like launch another creative endeavor with like uh with with professional like Hollywood people
basically and and you know put together uh new entertainment you should voice a female character

spot yes so that's exciting also i wanted to show you guys this this is such a
Stupid fucking video, and I thought it was really funny when I saw it
I didn't even know there was a thing like this the Hassanabi AI
It's a combination of words that would convey a meaning to any person. It's kind of shocking how good
My my AI voice is you can read past the fifth grade level
She's I can read just fine. You're just not making any sense
Yeah, that just proves my point. Thank you.
So, you better watch your mouth, you damn extra. I can let the floor with you in seconds.

You know you're talking to the great Katsuki Bakugou, right?

That sounds exactly like me, bro. What the hell is that where how do I get this AI apparently? I was talking to Frogan, too
How the frick is this happening? Why is that so good?
It's terrifying. I've spoken too much online now. They have like all of the different ways in which I speak like it's messed up
Welcome, guys.

Better than all might sure you know people will be able to read this when you graduate and try to apply for jobs
Right good luck trying to explain this to your to your future boss
What kind of pro hero as a boss? All I plan to do after graduating is become the number
one hero besides no future boss would deny. AI voice based on how much sample data there
is and since we have 10 years of you talking in one way or another your AI voice is actually
pretty good yeah. Don't worry, hotspot can't steal your job. He can never be as parasocial
with chatters as you. Yeah, hotspot. Well, technically it could. Technically it could.
could just like literally tie a place technically it could memorize every fucking minute detail
about my chatters in a way that I do myself so play the frogan clip you are done for
bro i'm in therapy yeah i know and it's clearly not working lol wait what that's that is literally
something I would say that's correct. That is something I did. What the fuck chill? Okay,
I'm about to be homeless, bro. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, I'm about to be I'm about to
be homeless, bro. No, this sucks. I got to debate the bot. I got to debate the fucking
bot. I got to destroy the bot in the marketplace of ideas. We might do that later, but we
have some serious news to get to. All right, we from all the fun stuff we are
We're now moving into not so fun stuff, okay?
Moving on quickly into Lebanon, we are going to be talking about all of the fuck shit that
Israel is engaging in once again.
Israel has bombed Beirut, remember Beirut is not southern Lebanon, it's not like villages
and towns, it's just straight up like eight metropolitan city in the middle of a sovereign
nation.
And, oh yeah, I blasted off, I forgot.
I forgot to tell you that I blasted off. Here it is. Um, there are videos from friends, people
that I know, people in my community that live in fucking Beirut, you know what I mean? Like
there are literally a shit ton. There are a shit ton of people both in this community,
people that you know, people that, uh, you're familiar with, like people's parents.
Like there's it is akin to bombing Istanbul. It is akin. And if you think Istanbul
also out of touch and out of reach and you can't comprehend it. It's like bombing fucking New York.
Okay. Literally. It is like if 9 11 was happening again. Okay. Shouldn't have terrorist shouldn't
have had terrorists in it. Oh, um, I hope whatever you wish upon the third world happens to you
in the exact same severity, not like 10 fold or anything like that,
But just simply in the exact same severity, you know, so no, I'm not going to do his song
yesterday. Okay. Everybody shut the fuck up. We're moving on. We're doing the thing. Okay.
Damn. Chatter basically said, America deserve not a level shouldn't have had tears meddling
in the Middle East. I mean, it's like beyond that. It's beyond that. I know that a lot
of people are joking like, Oh, it's the New York of America or whatever. Like this
is not a joke. Okay. Beirut literally Beirut straight up is no different than any other
fucking city in Europe. Okay. Any other city anywhere else on the planet, but for people
who only have the capacity to view like Westerners as a real human beings, the capital of Lebanon
obviously has, I mean, it has 2.5 million people in it. It is literally fucking no different
than any other goddamn Metropolitan city. It's the capital. Okay. It is ridiculous.
Okay. It is no different. It is no different than bombing Paris. We were eating when we
heard it 10 fucking hands. We are 15 minutes away and our building was shaking. I thought
the war and Beirut has started. There was a lot of smoke and we rushed to call our loved
ones as we've been doing for the last few weeks. Six buildings are on the ground
now. There were kids inside, of course. It is comp. It is utterly repulsive. It
is completely unacceptable, disgusting. It is an act of war once again, but Israel
gets to do it. As always, Israel always gets to do it. And if you fucking say Israel doesn't
get to do it, then you obviously are anti-Semitic and should be also put in prison. Great stuff.
Overall, fantastic, wonderful, seems really cool. We should just not rein this shit in
at all. We should just not even try to rein this shit in at all. Israel gets to do it.
It's basically the fucking forthright and America is the line with it. Once again, I repeat my position
And I find myself doing this quite a bit
If you were ever wondering what it would look like during World War two if America actually went to war on the side of the Nazis
Now, you know
Okay, if you were ever wondering what it would look like you don't have to look at like
like, uh, you know, fictional works of art in a parallel universe or anything like that.
This is happening right in front of your fucking eyes. Okay. That tweet is a joke. Shut the
fuck up. What I'm receiving reports of fierce debates within the US administration. Biden
and Austin want to jointly nominate Nanny. I don't go a lot. Oh yeah. This is a joke.
Yes. This is Moin Robani joking. It's not being, he's not being serious. I mean,
like, yeah, I want to suggest covering the John Oliver video about disability benefits.
sorry if this is annoying. I won't comment on this again. Yeah, I'm not going to do that
right now. You're out of your fucking mind. If you think I'm going to do that. Okay. For
all of the reporting coming from Israel that Hassan Nasrallah is dead from the likes of
Osset defender, which are like hyper Zionists. If you think that that is the case, like,
I don't know what to tell you, you have to wait for Hezbollah to come out with
a statement. Okay. They have to justify why they're doing these like massive fucking
strikes. If you, if you're just going to like literally listen to the IDF on this, I mean,
it could be true, but if you immediately go along with the IDF's assessment on it, I don't
know what to tell you. Okay. Yeah. It's probably not the case. Here is the bureau chief for
Iraq from Reuters has the law secretary general Hasan Nasrallah is alive source
close to Hezbollah. So, you know, it's, it's, they're just justifying it because they're
like, oh, it's Hezbollah was there. We had to strike it. That's why we killed, you know,
another hundred fucking children in the middle of again, this is Beirut. Okay. Just so you
understand, like, I hate doing this because I feel like it almost leans into like this
western heliocentric supremacist attitude where you have to see a fucking city resemble
like what you think a good city looks like a normal city looks like you know a
western city it leans into like the orientalist sentiment expressed on the
other side of this but like it is literally just like any other fucking
city okay this does not justify doing this kind of thing to gossip or anything
like that. But like, yeah, here is Israel supposedly supposed to reasoning for doing it.
The rationale behind the attack was that Russ Nasrallah refused to decouple his bullet from
Hamas and stopped the guy fighting on the northern border. Therefore the decision was
to take him out of the decision making picture. Yeah. Um, great stuff. It's just, this is
This is literally what I said yesterday and the day before Israel could nuke Lebanon and
America would be on board with it. Okay. That's it.
Do a breaking news this hour that we want to talk about. We can now confirm that Israel
strike on Hezbollah's headquarters and Beirut was indeed aimed at.
Yeah. Here this is Lebanon was living in, in peace and tranquility in 1976 and then
came Hezbollah, which is such a fucking stupid ass thing to say. Classic anti-theist attitude
here.
I was just at the beach in Lebanon less than two weeks ago where everyone was in bathing
suits and skimpy as in Miami. You freak also who cares? Herbs are only worthy of your life.
If they're women wear bikinis or the bikinis, the only way to humanize us, you pervert.
You should be embarrassed. Seek help and leave us alone. This is like looking at
Lebanon and trying to do that like Egypt or Iraq or Afghanistan style shit is so
funny because Lebanon still is obviously an incredibly diverse multi-ethnic and also multi-religious
country, maybe to a fucking fault almost. So it's like hilarious. It'd be like, oh, look,
look at what has, look at what has Bola did. Look at what Lebanon used to look like. It's
like, bitch, Lebanon still looks like that. The fuck are you talking about? The fuck
are you talking about? Have you met a Lebanese person? They're gay as fuck. And I'm not
saying that about Austin like in general dude it's so fucking annoying these people know nothing about
anything so local businesses just lost their entire family in a strike in Lebanon Israel needs to stop
the genocide local business yeah I mean dude dude dude dude dude there's just I'm telling you right now
they just don't care they don't care you are not seen as a fucking human being yeah you do not get
to do the Iran pre 1979 thing with Lebanon people wear all kinds of clothing bars line up and done
on the blog and Beirut, there are gay night clubs. And it doesn't matter. I think Reina's
take is even better than Sheamus's take on this one because like it shouldn't matter.
Like you can't justify, you can't use this like dehumanization to be like, see, look
at how barbaric and backwards they are, which is why we have to bomb them into the
fucking stone age. Like what kind of argument are you making? I hate that shit. Very
stupid. Let's get to, let's get to what fucking happened earlier today.
out the terrorist organization's leader Hassan Nasrallah. We still don't have any confirmation
though whether Nasrallah has been killed or not. Rescue workers are responding to the
scene right now in southern.
And by the way, in terms of like killing Hassan Nasrallah, what a lot of these people fail
to fucking recognize, okay, from where they're standing is that someone else will always
filled the void. Okay. It doesn't fucking matter if Yahya Sinwar is assassinated. It doesn't
matter if Azana's Rala is assassinated. These are not people that are like, I mean, they're
they're very smart tacticians. Okay. You might not agree with their methods. You might not
agree with the worldview. I certainly don't in terms of like their own personal domestic
affairs, but ultimately they're, yes, they are smart tacticians. They're very well
red. Um, overall though, there's going to be another person that replaces them. You might
put a stay on the resistance. You might soften the resistance for a brief moment. But ultimately,
if you continue pummeling these fucking areas, there are going to be new Hasan Nasrallah's
propping up. There are new Hasan Nasrallah's right now. Okay. Smart technicians. A unique
way of saying coordinating terrorist attacks. Dude, dude, stop doing this. Okay. You
You can't do this while we're watching the fucking smoke in the midst of Beirut, okay?
Like your understanding of terrorism and my understanding of terrorism clearly is not the
same.
You literally simply just say, oh, they're the brown guys.
They're the Muslims.
They're the terrorists.
They're the bad guys.
Stop with this fucking idiotic black and white, incredibly fucking infantile understanding
of the situation.
Okay?
God damn, dude.
Oh, no, it's, uh, you don't understand.
of the bad guys and, uh, and, and our allies are the good guys. Duh. Obviously they're
the good guys, no matter what they do, even in this circumstance, they're the good guys,
right? Because they're targeting the bad guys. You are a baby brand liberal dipshit. If you
genuinely believe this, okay? Yeah. You can't level six apartment buildings in the middle
of a fucking 2.5 million, uh, population dense metropolitan area in an entirely sovereign
nation and then turn around and be like actually the guys who were in the midst like inside
of those buildings they are the terrorists like you can't say that you know or you can
and you can say that in American media you just can't say that here and not expect
some kind of fucking retaliation okay there are human beings in those buildings they
are now dead there are people in this community whose family members live in and around
the vicinity there are community members in my community that live in and around
vicinity. You're an fucking animal if you think that this kind of attack is justifiable, okay?
And I don't care about what some other goddamn content creator said about this, okay? Don't
bring this shit up unless you want simply drama. Like, I don't care what fucking loner box said,
okay? Why the fuck would I ever care about that? What is wrong with you?
I'm doing news coverage. You want me to fucking go yell at some random fucking YouTuber, man?
What the fuck? Who looks at one of the, again, one of the worth escalations in terms of like regional conflict in this area with the death toll increasing by the hundreds overnight and goes, I wonder if I can get Hassan to respond to some random fucking dickhead on YouTube about this issue.
Okay. Jesus Christ.
Next, picks your fucking brains, man.
They're in Beirut where they are evacuating the injured, also retrieving the bodies of
those that were killed in the airstrike.
You can still see the plumes of smoke from where that strike took place.
Our foreign correspondent Marcus Morris in Beirut, along with our contributor and former
deputy assistant secretary of defense for the Middle East, Mick Mulroy.
Marcus, let's start with you.
We're just learning that Benjamin Netanyahu is actually cutting his US trip early now.
made his speech this morning at the UN. So I'm assuming it's to get back with the news
of what might have taken place here, still having confirmed the death of Nasrallah, but
clearly if he is dead, this is going to be a huge story.
Yeah, this explains why I got three different posts from people in the US military eating
lobster. The US is prepared to deploy. Yes, they have already, they have already, they're
already in the fucking surrounding region. They're aware of what Israel is doing and
they're geared up and ready to go. Okay, to defend Israel.
Right.
Yeah, a huge story. No doubt here, a major development happening
here in Beirut. We're also remember we're not simply we're
not just giving them the bombs to do this. We are also
supplying them with surveillance like the United States of
America. Okay, your taxpayer dollars are literally paying
American American airplanes surveillance aircraft to surround the region and offer new bombing targets to the Israeli military
Which then turns around and uses our fighter jets to drop our 2000 pound munitions
Okay, so when biden says oh man, this sucks. What are we doing here?
Oh man, how are we going to do this? Like what's happening here? Well, we got to stop
Israel. Like it's fucking bullshit. Okay. They are not only not restraining Israel, they're
also supporting Israel. They're funding and facilitating Israel. They're giving Israel.
They added a $9 billion additional defense package to Israel literally two days ago. Okay.
Two E three B century AWACS off Lebanon with transponder switched off and the aircraft
or reappear a few minutes after the bloody air strikes on Beirut. There is no coincidence.
The U.S. helps Israel bombing Lebanon on a daily basis. The reason why they don't admit
it is because they know Israel systematically kills civilians during their air strikes.
Is this the Democratic Party? This is the Uniparty. If you think that America is going
to change trajectory on its foreign policy because a Democrat is in charge or a Republican
is in charge, you're out of your fucking mind. And yeah, here, add insult to injury, a photo
of Netanyahu giving the order to strike Beirut tonight from New York, destroying several apartment
buildings, ordering US-funded war crimes from US soil right after giving a speech to the
United Nations about how Israel yearns for peace. Like, it's, it's, he is, like Benjamin
Even Netanyahu is almost like an Osama Bin Laden-like figure in terms of like destroying or showing
to the world like the ways in which the international rule-based order is a complete lie.
There is no bigger flex, there is no bigger demonstration of this lie than that.
You're on American soil, you're using American weapons, you're using American targeting
systems, American surveillance to drop American munitions on a sovereign nation in the midst
of the United Nations meetings happening where you deliver the speech about how you yearn
for freedom. Okay. That's it. When America says, Oh my God, how are they doing this?
What are we supposed to do? We're just trying to stop Israel from behaving this
way it's like dude you're not you're not trying to stop Israel from behaving this way you love
it you love the death and destruction you fund it you facilitate it you support it you give the
fucking weapons you give the surveillance to Israel okay and you give the protected shield
the protective shield of of expending your own personal capital as a global hegemonic superpower
On the main stage, when you defend Israel on a regular basis at the Security Council,
you defend Israel on the General Assembly, there is no clear indication that things cannot
continue the way that they have, especially with America on its last leg, okay, on its last leg,
funding and facilitating this obvious genocide.
The word from Prime Minister Netanyahu's office in Jerusalem is that
He will head back to Israel tonight as we are watching images of absolute
Even America, bro. I am dude. I don't think you are though
Because being pro-Israel does not mean you're a pro-america
I I would say I would say
That my commentary on this is more pro-america than like 99 of our politicians. Okay
I don't think that we should allow a sovereign nation, right, a foreign nation to just engage
in bloody hell, in death and destruction, funded by our taxpayer dollars, okay?
I don't think that that is appropriate.
I think that that is unimaginably un-American, okay?
If there is any sort of like principle behind like being an American and wanting America
to be the world police and be the good guys in every story, then this demonstrates
that we are the bad guys in this fucking story. Okay. This is precisely the reason why there
are people in the fucking State Department that don't even agree with the Biden camp
and Anthony Blinken and the way that they are continuing on giving Israel free reign
to behave in the ways that it is. Okay. Because they also recognize that obviously
this is diminishing America's soft power capabilities. It's cooked. The world stage
is cooked all of the organs of in the international organs of justice that you normally could use
tirelessly against your foreign adversaries to get them to fucking do the right thing
or whatever and apply like you know deploy sanctions packages or whatever all of that
is cast aside in the circumstance because everyone goes the fuck do you mean you hate Russia
the fuck do you mean what do you mean that Russia is doing wrong things here look at
what you're fucking doing in Gaza. Look at what you're doing in Beirut. That's it. And
for a lot of people, that's how they see it. All of a sudden, like I keep repeating over
and over again, 800 military bases around the world will look like 800 military occupations
around the world. If America's soft power capabilities go away, it no longer will
be a military partnership and a firm commitment and an allegiance to the United States of
America in terms of keeping global security, it all of a sudden becomes an active invasion.
Okay. And America, no other country, as a matter of fact, and certainly not the United States
of America has the power to conduct 800 different invasions in the same fucking time
at the same time. Okay. This is why America's soft power capabilities actually help its
military might
okay
you understand angry panda
probably not
dot park
got to protect national interest you i just described to you
from a pro-state department pro america position
why allowing israel the rain fucking bloody terror in the region
is genuinely diminishing america's national interest on the global stage
so you're wrong
you just said that because that's a thing you've heard
you've never actually analyze what that means
You never actually thought about what that means because if you had actually put some thought into it you would recognize that America's undying loyalty to the state of Israel in apartheid state that is currently actively committing genocide and has started a new front in another sovereign nation in its end seed.
And the way that it's analyzed from the rest of the fucking world including our Western European allies
This is even more significant than just like the global south the global south
There's always had a distaste for American Empire for obvious reasons, but now
Now you even have Western European allegiances on shaky ground
if you don't think that this is a genuine
Genuinely devastating misstep
You just got to wait till Trump says it and then you'll repeat it when Trump goes around and says they ruined our partnerships
They said I was bad. They said the world laughed at me, but the world laughed at them
now look
England is going against our wills. They're not even giving money to Israel. They're not giving weapons to Israel
And then you'll repeat it and you'll be like hell. Yeah, he's right peaceful dove, baby
Anyway, let's continue destruction unfold
from the side of the blast that if you look at just behind me you may be able to
see the haze in the distance that is the smoke still rising the smoke and dust
still rising from that scene after a series of of blasts we felt and and
heard one of them today Kira it was the without a doubt the largest and most
powerful blasts we have felt this week and this will mark the fifth strike
on Dakhia, the southern suburb of Beirut, the Hezbollah stronghold, the fifth strike
just this week. And as you reported, we understand, according to the IDF, that the
target was Hassan Nasrallah, the secretary-general of Hezbollah, but you
look at the devastation there. And we are talking about several buildings that
have been severely damaged, flattened according to reports, and so we are
talking about scores of casualties. Right now we're waiting for word I've reached
out to the health ministry here and we're waiting to get the initial report
but I can tell you Kira in our time that we spent in Dahia it is a densely
populated area not only with shops but also homes and the fact that you have
several buildings that have been absolutely destroyed we can anticipate
that the numbers will be quite high. Right now as you mentioned we don't
know if Nasrallah is alive or dead. Israel saying that they targeted him.
Every member of Hezbollah, ISIS in the Taliban deserve death. They rape, pillage, and suppress.
Israel deserves protection. That's cool. It's kind of interesting that you just like mentioned
Hezbollah alongside ISIS and the Taliban, right? You said that you're issuing the death penalty
on all of them. And then the reasoning that you mentioned for why they are worthy of the
the death penalty, okay? You did not suspiciously mention Israel, okay? But the reasons that
you mentioned as to why they all deserve the death penalty are things that Israel also
does, things that Israel has actually systematized, serialized, does on a regular fucking basis
in broad fucking daylight with full blown American support. So that's really interesting
that you have this dynamic where you're like, well, Hezbollah deserves death, they
rape they pillage and suppress. When in fact, one, Hezbollah and ISIS are nowhere near as
nowhere near comparable. As a matter of fact, ISIS and Israel are significantly closer in both
utilizing and bastardizing religion as a way to fucking justify their actions and also destroying
fucking cultural monuments, cultural world artifacts on a regular fucking basis and doing
Unlimited acts of terror, okay? In terms of like in terms of this this
This similarity between Hezbollah ice in the Taliban it just demonstrates that you think oh, they're Muslim
So they're the same when in fact if you look at the situation
Israel is infinitely closer to ISIS and has actually aligned with ISIS in Syria as a matter of fact is treated ISIS fighters
giving them medical help. Israel deserves protection. No innocents deserve death and killing terrorist
leadership never really does anything. They're not competent leaders. Therefore,
they're always easily replaced as a tough situation. It's not a tough situation, okay?
It is as close to black and white as you can get. Yes, Israel armed al-Nusra, Israel gave
medical treatment to ISIS fighters. The idea that it's actually Hamas,
or Hezbollah that is closest to ISIS is fucking ridiculous.
You just think, oh, they're all Muslims.
So they're the same.
There's been no confirmation from Hezbollah
that he was even in that area.
And so we'll have to wait for word on that, Kara.
And clearly, Mick, we're getting, you know,
there's other foreign news agencies like, you know,
the Saudi press is reporting that Nasrallah has not
been killed, but still we don't have any confirmation.
And there aren't any media outlets here in the US
reporting whether he was killed or not. But if indeed he was, how could this change just
the dynamic of the widening war that we've been witnessing? There's been tremendous concern
that this could just keep getting worse and worse. If indeed he's been taken out, how
can that impact what we're seeing now in the Middle East?
So, Kara, this would be a substantial blow to Hezbollah, and Israel has been the Secretary
General since 1992, and is revered by that organization.
So it would mark, of course, a substantial escalation going in the opposite direction
of where the U.S. had hoped to go with the 21-day ceasefire, and it really does put
an emphasis to that as not where Israel intends to go with this conflict in Lebanon.
I, it's important to point out that most of the facilities of Hezbollah are subterranean.
So they build stuff under civilian areas, trying to essentially protect themselves that it might
have been multiple from New York times, four minutes ago, Iran's supreme leader, Alatollah
Ali, Ayatollah Ali Khomeini has called an emergency meeting in the Supreme national
security council of this home compound, according to Iranian physical knowledge of the meeting.
They said the meeting was in response to Israel strike in Beirut that targeted the
leader of Hezbollah Hassan Nasrallah.
Like, just so you understand, it would be what Israel did to the principal negotiator in the ceasefire agreement would be like if Iran was able to successfully blow up, if Iran was able to successfully explode the fucking hotel room that Benjamin Netanyahu is in, okay?
In the United States of America soil.
And, of course, that's like unimaginable that would never happen.
And what they're doing here what they're justifying here is like if once again, like Iran blew up
Israeli politicians like exploded real positive through the missile strike in the middle of fucking Tel Aviv or again in the middle of New York as a matter of fact
bombs the first
To clear out the buildings and then the second to actually penetrate
to the sub-Duranian space and potentially take out Nusrah. I think we'll, it will have
to wait a while to see if he was actually killed in this. Early reports are likely not accurate
and not informed.
I don't know that anybody's actually gotten down to see where the fuck is the rest of
the era world, bro. They have nothing. Okay. They have nothing. One in terms of like Hezbollah
in terms of, you know, Iran, a lot of the other fucking Arab countries don't like
either of these parties anyway. They don't like Hezbollah. They don't like, uh, and they
certainly do not like Iran regardless. We're talking about the governance structures in
all of these Arab nations. Okay. So that's number one. Number two, they have fucking
fat military contracts with the United States of America. Their job, especially if you're
talking about like the golf regions, the golf States, their job is to basically maintain
a critical posture against Israel, so that they don't get fucking assassinated by their
own population.
That's it.
Their job simply is to sit back and be like, Israel, don't do that.
That's really messed up while they get weapons contracts from the United States of America
and continue dealing with Israel in the exact same fucking ways they dealt with Israel.
Because the fuck are they supposed to do?
They got nothing anyway.
Their entire military is American deer.
Okay?
entire surveillance capabilities come from the United States of America. They're targeting
systems come from the United States of America. They got nothing. They are all hollowed out
vassal states. So obviously in terms of the governance structure in these countries, their
entire purpose is to just make sure that their population does not fucking rise up
against them and overthrow them in a bloody coup or something because, you know, they
go, enough is enough. What you're doing is unacceptable. That's it. That's their entire
job. Okay. And if you, if you look at like Lebanon or if you look at fucking Jordan,
for example, these are direct like byproducts of, of, uh, Western colonialism. These are
vestiges of Western colonialism. These are not like countries that were well-defined.
It was literally fucking places that they carved out and specifically gave in the case
of Lebanon to a very diverse, multi-ethnic and multi-religious people that were living
there.
Okay?
In the case of Jordan, they just like handed it off to fucking, you know, the British Empire,
basically.
They're all, you might as well analyze Lebanon and especially, like Lebanon and also especially
Jordan as simply holding grounds until Israel takes it over. Okay? That's it. Like from the
eyes of Western colonialists, the way they analyze it is just like one day Israel will
take it all. And then we'll have a true peace. Okay? You know, Israel is an evil piece of
shit. So I won't shed any tears of these dead, but fucking hell, Israel is just doing
continuous terrorist attacks and we're aiding and abetting them to the fullest extent
be being Biden both belong in the Hague. Yeah, it's just like, okay, like the thing I don't
understand is people say this stuff, but they don't recognize that like this right here is
the justification that Israel is using. So I don't know why you're so mad at like Benjamin
Ninyahu and also, uh, Joseph Robin at Brandon and say that they belong in the Hague because
when you say like, yeah, Hassan Nasrallah is an evil piece of shit. I hope he's
All you've done is basically give legitimacy give an air of credence to why Israel targeted this fucking crowded neighborhood in Beirut
Okay
That's it like you without recognizing it are basically
Reasserting the Israeli position. That's all you have done
Here is N12 news and 12 news is Dana Weiss
Israeli official says Israel is going to war
And we already covered this, but yeah, Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has called
an emergency meeting of the Supreme National Security Council.
As far as we know, as far as we know currently, we do not know if Hassan Nasrallah is dead.
There is no confirmation thus far from the Hezbollah side.
There's only confirmation, as a matter of fact, from the Israeli side.
And I will wait, as always, to hear from the axis of resistance or any kind of like official
statement from their side to get this actual confirmation on whether or not it was correct.
Jeremy Scales says, there's intense focus on the fate of Mazzarala right now.
These were massive American bombs, Israel dropped a density populated residential area in Beirut,
and we still have no sense of how many people died.
It's going to be a very large number.
The US in multiple ways has enabled Israel to promote a doctrine that Israel is allowed
to kill as many civilians with US weapons as it wishes with impunity in the name of self-defense
in air quotes or killing the terrorists in air quotes.
That's it.
Axis of resistance?
Yes.
Axis of resistance is like Hezbollah, Ansarallah, all of the fucking regional actors, whether
they are standing paramilitaries or complete fucking, you know, nation states with
their own with their own actual standing militaries that are aligned against western imperialism
in the region, you know, allowing the people who desire to kill terrorists to define what
a terrorist means is like letting a rapist define consent. Yeah, that's actually a good
take right about that. Good and evil child terminology. Yeah, it's just like it's very,
very frustrating. Israel confirms he's dead. Yes, but Israel confirms fucking Yahya
in war is dead every other week okay like it doesn't it's until there is like confirmation from the
other side it doesn't fucking mean anything once again this is the iranian embassy uh saying once
again the israeli regime is committing a bloody massacre targeting density populated residential
neighborhoods issuing false justifications and attempt to cover up its brutal crime and cover
the skies with domes there is no doubt that this reprehensible crime and reckless behavior
represents a serious escalation that changes the rules of the game and that its perpetrator
will be punished appropriately and disciplined. Iran says this shit on a daily basis, but like,
let's be real, they are, uh, you know, they're incredibly restrained almost to a fucking fault
at this, uh, at this point of Israel is never going to respond. Uh, Israel is never going
to respond to diplomacy. They have demonstrated that time and time again. They see diplomacy
as weakness. They see it as cowardice. They see it as like a go ahead to do more and more
violence. So yeah, but once again, IDF spokesman Rear Admiral Daniel Higari says
the precise strike on a central headquarter of Hezbollah which was
intentionally built under residential buildings in Beirut in order to use them
as human shields. That's interesting. IDF headquarters in Tel Aviv is walking
distance to a hospital, markets, theaters, etc. Okay, but you obviously don't
consider that to be a fucking, uh, you know, human shield situation. That's it. That's it. That's
literally it. A precise targeting of like, uh, the Israeli Knesset or the idea of headquarters
would not be considered an, uh, you know, a normal justifiable, uh, self retaliation
of a sovereign nation demonstrating its sovereignty. Right. No, it's actually a really good
point I've talked about this many times over it doesn't even it doesn't even matter to most people
that's the as the problem that's why I don't even bring it up because people don't fucking care
because a lot of this a lot of this attitude revolves around might is right okay that's it
that's it might is right Israel has the capabilities to do this Israel can do this no
one no Israel's enemies cannot and that's it and not only does it not matter if they actually
successfully assassinated Hassan Nasrallah, okay? It doesn't fucking matter. We don't know if that
actually happened, but even if it did, it doesn't, it still doesn't matter. It doesn't change the
dynamic, okay? It doesn't change the mindset of people that watch their fucking families rip the
part that after literally seek through the rubble to see if their fucking baby in a cradle is
still there, okay? But those people are still going to hate Israel. You understand?
Like, assassinating or decapitating the leadership does not change the dynamic at all. Someone else
will take their place because ultimately this is still a war of emancipation for many people, okay?
What the devastation and the damage that has been done.
All right. And, um, of course, as we try and work to confirm, uh, if indeed in Israel is
dead or alive. Um, I'm assuming we could probably, uh, this is precisely the reason why I don't
make the fucking argument. I mean, the dynamics a little different in like a place like Russia,
right? The dynamics a little different because there's like unitary, uh, executive, uh,
on principle, it's just like one singular force that has a lot of control over what's
going on, right? The ambitions of one man, uh, can, can lead entire armies in the, in the
case for like Russia, for example. Um, having said that, however, I don't make the same argument
for fucking Benjamin Netanyahu. It's not like if Benjamin Netanyahu was assassinated
that Israel would stop. That's why I make the argument that America has to use its
levers of control in the circumstance to put Israel, uh, to terrain in Israel. Okay,
He put Israel in its place to tell him to fucking dial it back because without that level
of control without that lever of power it doesn't matter if Benjamin Nile is dead there's
going to be another fucking freak that takes his place.
What has to happen is the large partner in this coalition telling them to dial it the
fuck back.
That's it.
Joseph 33, thank you for the 10 gift subs.
You really think Putin's dead will just stop Russia fuck Putin?
I don't, I think Putin's death would not stop the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
It would just like destroy Russia because Russia is so single-handedly controlled by an individual.
Like there's no alternative and for so long that it would collapse Russia in its entirety.
It would be devastating.
It would be like post-dissolution of USSR one more time.
It would be, it would literally be the second, like, you know, all the child prostitution rates
and stuff that people love to point to in the dissolution of the USSR and the aftermath
of what happened in the Cold War, it would be like that. I don't think so, to be honest.
There is no alternative mechanism in place. There's not even a fucking mechanism of like,
of what happens in the aftermath of Putin's demise, whether untimely or, you know, likely
demise as a consequence of old age. Anyway, I don't know why we're talking about Putin.
It doesn't fucking matter, but it's just, yeah, this person says, I really need someone
to explain to me how bombing six tower blocks in Beirut is different from bombing the twin
towers like how new Israeli defensive visuals estimate that some 300 people were killed
in the Israeli strike on Beirut, according to Haaretz.
Nice.
So it's probably more than that, but think about it.
If they killed 300 civilians and got Hasan Nasrallah, that's a 300 to one.
Is that justifiable?
I don't think so. I don't think so. Of course, it's not justifiable. The ratio approved for
the bin Laden rate was something like 31. Yeah.
I was on one in Yahuas, like our wars with Hezbollah and other people of Lebanon, as
I'm assuming you show them bombing Beirut, my dad laugh, like how people buy this propaganda
is beyond me. I mean, I think it's because like a lot of people in Lebanon as well are
not exactly fans of Hezbollah. Okay. Once again, I repeat the position that Lebanon
is a very diverse country in terms of like ethnic background, but more importantly than
ethnic background in terms of religion, okay? You got Sunni Muslims, you have Christian people
in Lebanon. There are a lot of people in Lebanon that are not fond of Hezbollah, understandably so.
Having said that, however, it still doesn't give righteous cause to fucking blow up
six goddamn buildings in the middle of bay root it's fucking ridiculous okay it's ridiculous
expect some type of of retaliation so it's a more to follow mc marcus thank you both so much
update now this coming to us from the Reuters news agency that has bought a secretary general
hassan asrallah is alive this is the Reuters news agency citing a source close to his
that Secretary General Hassan Nasrallah is alive.
Now, this is important because all we have had
from the Israeli statement is that this was a precision strike.
That's how they've described it,
but they didn't mention specifically
who was being targeted.
We have had several targeted assassinations
over the course of many weeks and many months.
In fact, there was one just earlier this week
in the same area, in Dahia, that targeted the head of Hezbollah's drone unit.
And there were several missiles fired during the course of that attack.
But it is very important that there is this statement now from the Reuters agency, citing
a source post to Hezbollah that the Secretary General Hassan Nasrallah is alive.
Oh, Israel had targeted Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah in a massive blast in the
capital of Lebanon, in Beirut.
I want to go to my colleague, Jimana Karachi, who has been following this story for us.
Jimana, it was your initial reporting and your headlines internally here at CNN that
caught our attention over an hour ago now when you were reporting massive blasts.
Tell us now what we know.
Well, I wouldn't Israel say he is dead.
Imagine doing the strike and saying the target wasn't there.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, Bob, I did that.
Yeah.
That's it.
That's like, um, holy fuck.
It's just like I don't agree with the strike on
The fundamental principle that you cannot fucking blow up entire city blocks to get the one fucking guy to begin with
Okay, but even but even
But there is also the alternative here the likelihood that they didn't even get him. Okay, if your
analysis is like
300 to 1 if your ratio is
is 300 to one, okay?
Then October 7th cannot be considered an act of terror.
If you consider 300 people being ruthlessly slaughtered
with 5,000, 2,000 pound munitions, American weapons,
and surveillance capabilities that we are using,
if you consider that to be adequate
for one fucking guy, that civilian
to enemy combatant ratio is adequate for you.
then October 7 is not cannot even be fucking declared an active terror in that regard when
you look at the fucking percentage of enemy combatants that were assassinated killed on
October 7 versus the civilian numbers the ratios favor Hamas and the Palestinian resistance
every single time it ratios babe it ratio I mean sorry it favors the Palestinian
resistance in terms of October 7 versus what Israel has done in Gaza, and it's
certainly fucking favors tenfold in this circumstance. Okay? It's ridiculous. It is
ridiculous. Oh, six buildings leveled. The casualty numbers are just coming in.
What are you seeing and hearing? Well, as you mentioned, Biana, we've just heard
from the Ministry of Health that at least two people were killed, seven to
were injured in those massive blasts that targeted Beirut's southern suburbs, as we understand,
of course, from the Israeli military, the target of those strikes was the leader.
They say it was a command center, but what we understand from my colleague Jeremy Diamond,
according to a security official, a senior Israeli official, that the target was the
leader of Hezbollah, Hassan Nasrallah. And that is the big question right now. What if
Nasrallah was there, if Nasrallah survived? We understand from the senior Israeli official
that the Israeli military is working to verify that you would have a post-strike assessment.
And that is still not clear. Nothing official from Hezbollah yet, nothing from the Lebanese
government, but a senior security official telling my colleague, Tamara Kiblawi, when
asked about Hassan Nasrullah and his status right now, he says, we were there for the
record. I told you that this was going to happen after Gaza, right? Like the moment
that Israel changed its trajectory towards Hezbollah and Lebanon in general. I told
you that Western media was going to start using the exact same fucking terminology like to a
T the exact same terminology. It's actually human shields. They're using human shields.
Lebanon is using human shields. Anyone then across there's of Israel is always using human
shields. Okay. And we just have to shoot through those human shields. There's nothing else
we can do. The passive voice Western media does when it comes to Israel makes me feel
like I'm going to eat get an ulcer. Yeah. It also makes me forget that at the top
of the hour, there was a three minute outbreak and I forgot to run it so I'm running it now,
okay? In the middle of the fucking hour. And if you no longer want to see those ads, all
you need to do is subscribe for $4.20 until the end of this month of September or for
free with the Twitch Prime, okay? Here's the three minute outbreak now. Yeah, they're
They're flattening fucking uh, Dehiya, where the Dehiya doctrine comes from by the way,
once again, and they're saying that they're doing it because they want to take care of
Hezbollah, uh, they want to take care of the leadership structure of Hezbollah, and
obviously no amount of terrorism that they engage in as is considered to be unacceptable
and america has shown that to the rest of the world and will stand idly
uh... on israel's side not even idly by actually will will
voluntarily assist israel in this bloody campaign
wait and the whole country right now is on edge as it waits
for news whether the uh... leader of his will have some of the law was indeed
in that location
in that's densely populated parts
of Beirut in the southern suburbs, if he survived, if he was injured, all these questions right
now, putting this entire country on edge, a dangerous escalation, Biana doesn't begin
to describe the situation right now.
Yeah, as we've been seeing things escalate quite quickly, even prior to this targeted
assassination of Hassan Nasrallah by the Israelis.
We've seen hundreds of those killed in Lebanon over the past week and a half.
Hezbollah launching a ballistic missile that was successfully thwarted in Israel again.
Everyone, really on Knife's Edge here, and as many of our guests have already said, many,
many red lines have already been crossed here.
Jemana Karachi, thank you so much.
Keep us posted on any developments you hear.
Let's go to Israel, and our Nick Robertson is in Tel Aviv, and Nick, the United States
It's responding, saying that they were not involved in any way, shape, or form in this
targeted assassination of Hassan Nasrallah and that they were given a heads-up or notification,
the defense minister telling his counterpart here in the United States, Defense Secretary
Austin, as this operation was underway.
Any new information that you're hearing now from the IDF over the course of the last
hour since we heard from Rear Admiral Higari?
No, what we know is that the Defence Minister has been sitting in one of the command centres
with other commanders around him, analysing what's happening in Beirut, analysing all
the information streams that they have access to, to try to figure out precisely what has
happened.
And while we're talking about this, I'm reminded of a conversation I had with an official
earlier this week about the possibility as all these different Hezbollah commanders were
being assassinated in the suburbs of Beirut. I asked the sort of obvious question, well,
would Hassan Nasrallah be on that target list? And I was sort of given the impression
that that may or may not be the case. It wasn't clear. But the impression I took
away from the conversation that I was having was, well, what happens if you remove Hassan
Mastralla? Who do you get in his place? What, who picks up? Is it somebody more radical and
remembering that Hassan Mastralla is not a military commander per se. He has all those
military commanders underneath of him. He's more of a sort of a figurehead, a leader.
command absolutely the top of you know the top person within Hezbollah no doubt
about his authority but when he says I want this done I want this done I want
this done it's the commanders the military commanders underneath of him
who realize that so therefore the question becomes what happens if you
remove him it's not going to stop the organization functioning although
clearly the organization is absolutely on the back foot it's been decimated in many ways commander
me he's right it doesn't stop it doesn't there is no there is no military solution to these
to these issues okay just like there's no military solution to Hamas there's no military
solution to Hezbollah either okay that's it that's it and Israel knows that they just don't
don't give a shit, okay? They just use the military solution as a justification for doing
death and destruction, dealing death and destruction. And it's wild that they do not even mention
this as anything but a successful, targeted, precise military strike. They don't mention
six buildings demolished. They don't mention the hundreds of civilians that are under
the rubble right now. Nothing. It's crazy. It is a complete abdication of responsibility.
It is a, it, there's, this is not journalism at all. Okay. It's ridiculous.
In control, leaders remove the pager attacks them, the walkie-talkie attacks. All of that
has really put Hezbollah on the back foot. And this, if it is, has, if Hassan Nasrallah
is dead, it puts them even further on the back foot. But the question does become, what
sort of person inherits the leadership of Hezbollah? What sort of decisions would they take? Will
they become more aggressive in their position towards Israel, where Nasrallah has been
cautious in the past about not escalating, about sort of keeping the movement and the
organization of Hezbollah together, not allowing Israel to draw it into a greater fight, if
you will, by not responding to escalations, previous escalations, with their own overwhelming
escalation towards Israel staying out of that.
Is that the sort of leader that you get in his place?
Look, it is frankly too soon in a way to be discussing this.
These will have been the discussions prior that went into whether or not to target the
leader of Hezbollah, and clearly a decision was taken to target him on the belief that
that was going to further Israel's efforts to move Hezbollah off the border, where they
threatened the civilians in the north of Israel, and that the assessment was clearly
that this is the right course of action.
Israel could be proved wrong in this case. There could be a much wilder card
that takes over in leading Hezbollah and that could lead to a
much harder to predict type of escalation and fight. Nevertheless, that
is where we are at the moment and of course if Hassan Nasrallah has survived
then what decision set is he going to take now based on this? How will he respond
to an attempt to take his life? Will it be personal? Will it escalate or will or
will he not? Prior to this attempted assassination we had heard from the IDF
Chief of Staff, Herzegh Levy, earlier this week say that they are prepared
when that call is made for a potential land invasion into southern Lebanon there.
And we're also hearing and reporting now that Prime Minister Netanyahu has cut short his trip to the United States
and is on his way back to Israel right now upon news of this massive strike, the target being Hassan Nasrallah himself.
Nick Robertson, thank you.
I want to go to Naby Boulos, who is the Middle East bureau chief for the Los Angeles Times.
he just visited the site of that explosion in Beirut. He joins us by phone. And Abhi,
thank you so much for taking the time to call us. Tell us what you saw there.
Well, I mean, it was just a huge, huge site. Just the attack site was really, I think it's not
fixed building as well. Well, Nazarela taking an attempt on his life personal. No, none of these
things are, there is no individualism in this circumstance. I think people need to understand
that okay there are national motivations there are nationalist motivations but overall the moment
that you hyper individualized people's interest in this conflict is the moment that you lose sight of
what's going on okay like these are these are people who are hell bent on fighting against
western imperialism in the region tooth and fucking nail okay they don't give a shit about
their own personal ambitions in this circumstance. People always try to personalize it and try to make
it seem as though like, oh Yahya Sinwar will escape if Israel gives him, you know, reason to leave the
Gaza ship. It's like, no, he fucking won't. And I think Israelis, Israeli officials in the
intelligence community understand that they won't. They're just simply saying that so that
they can make a point about like the personal ambitions of these leaders. Because that
is completely at odds with the other assessment that more reasonable minds within the Israeli
military apparatus come to the conclusion on, which is that Hamas is not something that you
can deal with militarily. Okay? For these people, for these people, it's not like, oh, they attacked
me. Like, they, they already live under a permanent threat from American and Israeli
military invasion, American and Israeli military action against their lives.
I get it's not a thing. It's not a thing that they're like. It's not a thing that changes the
calculation at all. Has Israel claimed responsibility for the pages? Yes. They, I mean, come on.
Well, I've heard, but we only saw a part of it to be honest with you. And it was, I mean,
it was like, it was basically just overturned. I mean, you had no sense that they were building
there was mostly just dirt had sort of flipped around as the ground itself had turned over
upside down.
And on one side of it, you know, you could see almost like a almost like a crevice in
the ground where a tree had fallen and the sort of front edge of the building had been
torn off.
I mean, kind of scale of destruction is just really hard to describe because it was
so much.
And right now, I mean, they're just thinking through we're hearing the initial reports
of 76 wounded.
But of course, I mean, I'm sure that's going to be much, much, much more because, you know,
they're still looking for the rubble and they will almost certainly have many people.
I should be clear.
This is a very, very popular.
Yeah.
Listen to it.
Listen to how shook he is.
The correspondent that is like near the fucking impact zone versus like whenever you hear
from a journalist in Jerusalem or Tel Aviv and the way that they are confident
in their coverage and don't feel even remotely scared is right now understandably if
If you live in Lebanon, if you live in Beirut, you're fucking terrified because Israel has
shown time and time again that they don't give a fuck about human beings on the opposite
side.
They don't care.
They will just fucking, they will lay down death and destruction at an unimaginable clip.
Offer-related area.
Yeah.
In fact, right near it, there's a big refugee camp and everyone there was just leaving
on months.
big accidents from that refugee camp with people just escaping and digging all
their stuff and finding anywhere else to go. Are there were you able to get close
to the buildings themselves this targeted site as we know six buildings we've
reported have been leveled by this how close to the area of destruction were
you able to get? We were at the very edge of it I mean we were led you know
Hizballah Khabreyskis in to see the area and we were led into the very
edge of it where rescue crews were working. And you could see excavators being in the
site, people going through it. Of course there was still a fire going on. But as I said,
this was the edge of the site and it's quite large. So I mean it was, you know, at least
the largest city block. So we didn't get a full view of the destruction as what it
amounts to.
Did you feel the blast yourself?
No, but I heard it certainly. I mean I was home and I just heard a successive
a number of successive booms, and they really shook the apartment.
I went away, of course, and you could hear all the glass shaking in the house.
It was quite different from other attacks that we've heard in Beirut.
This one, it's been the big one.
What is the Lebanese media?
BBC correspondent was nearby and filmed the moment.
Israeli jets just struck behind us, behind this school,
It's a school that many families have fled from the bombardments in southern Lebanon.
So we're just outside Dahir, which is Hezbollah's stronghold here in southern Beirut, not really
far from the site of this attack.
There is chaos, there is panic here, angry crowds just trying to leave Dahir.
We've seen some families carrying bags, their belongings.
tried to set up our position just outside the here.
And then a group of men came and stopped us from filming that.
So yeah, by the way, in response,
at least 40 rockets reportedly have been launched from Lebanon
with at least four settlements in South Ed and North Galilee.
Do you think a regional war is inevitable?
What's the best scenario right now?
Yes, I think that regional war.
I mean, Benjamin Nenyeahu has been telegraphing
that this is what he wants to do for months.
It's not like I'm fucking a brilliant tactician or anything that I with the gift of fucking foresight, I've been saying this for months and months and months and months that this was going to happen.
It's already happening. I think there's so many fucking military movements in the region, American troops in the region.
It is now a very tense situation here in southern Beirut. And again, another major escalation in this conflict.
Oh, by the way, by the way, hold up, hold up.
If you want to know our assessment of the situation, the U.S. Embassy is not evacuating
U.S. citizens at this time.
There is a commercially available flight that U.S. citizens who express interest in departing
Lebanon will have to book and pay directly with the airline as of this morning from
the U.S. Embassy in Beirut because it does not matter how many Americans get fucking
killed by Israel.
I need to reiterate this, okay?
I told you this already.
I fucking told you this, they do not care. Israel can fucking kill you, and we will do
nothing about it, because you are now a part of the, you have now dropped down on your order
of priority in the hierarchy of dual citizenship. You're down in the bottom of the ladder right
next to the fucking Palestinians. You're still above them, but you're right next
to them. Okay? And if you die in this situation, if you die in this situation, if Israel kills
you, then you're also a part of the Hezbollah collateral damage. It is what it is. You know,
American taxpayer funded bombs guided by American targeting destroyed. This is what
the, sorry, you have reporting that the targeting was done by the U.S. At this point they could
go kill protesters in America and the government will be like, well these things happen. No,
absolutely, absolutely, when Benjamin Netanyahu comes to the United States of America and speaks to
both parties in front of Congress and says, you have terrorists amongst your ranks,
you have terrorists and people that are funded by terrorist regimes that are
protesting on campuses against the big, beautiful nation of Israel. That is a threat.
And perhaps maybe a promise of what's to come. 100%. Here is Ben Caspid.
Current assessment, all the intelligence agencies are united in their opinion that he was there.
All the performance research factors are united in their opinion that it is possible to get
out of this place alive. As you can see the pictures on TV, what could have saved him?
him. Am arranged for himself an inner bunker in his office, fortified, secured and sealed,
a place that should be more immune than the bunker itself. Some leaders have arranged
such places for themselves. We also have someone here who was minister of security and had
such a safe in the office where you could find a safe haven. In one sentence, the
assessment that Nasrallah was hurt, it will take time to get the final verification.
According to foreign sources, an Iranian general, General Mahdavi's replacement, and
Ali Karchi, who was rescued last time, were there with him. And what about Sanwar?
This is how worldly fame passes.
Oh, it's not, it's not a 100% certainty
that he was assassinated in this bombing campaign.
This is what the current assessment is.
I will repeat this over and over again.
America does not give a fuck about American citizens
as long as Israel is killing them, okay?
That's it.
And I've, I mean,
America does not give a fuck about American citizens.
Even American military if Israel kills them.
Families are flocking to the ERs asking about their loved ones, but the ERs are empty. There are no bodies to even bury.
Because they're buried in the fucking rubble. They use bunker busters, dude.
Sean called it a few weeks ago. USA will throw Americans to the wolves if it means helping Israel yet.
Sean said, some people are mad at me for saying Biden would happily trade US lives for continued support for Israel's genocide.
But that's not even a stretch. It's just already happening. In reality, the IDF can kill as many Americans as it likes, as far as the White House is concerned.
Yeah, it's true, but like if you're more mad at him for saying this and then the and then world events prove this to be the reality, what do you do in that situation?
Do you actually change your analysis or do you just lean into it further and find a different reasoning for why it was justifiable?
And a lot of people do the second thing, they just dig their fucking heels in, you know?
You know, do you think Israel will eventually go so far that they start to be fully isolated
like apartheid South Africa?
I mean, I hope.
One thing people may be missing is why Lebanon, a complex nation-state, doesn't have an integrated
air defense system or even smaller anti-air missile systems is because the U.S. led an
effort to ban Lebanon forever having weapons like that.
Yeah, they banned it because Hezbollah is there.
A reminder that the awful bin Laden himself once claimed, as I watched the destroyed towers
in Lebanon, it occurred to me to punish the unjust the same way and the destroyed
towers in America, so it could taste some of what we are tasting and stop the killing
of our children and women. Yeah. This is at the heart of blowback. This is what that principle
is. Okay. Who knows who knows where this will go. It's a bold thing for Mehdi to say.
I mean, it's the correct take in this circumstance. You can't keep pummeling fucking. You can't
keep pummeling buildings killing civilians by the hundreds by the thousands and then
expect no retaliation whatsoever. Like it's ridiculous dude. Why is it that you consider
these people to be fucking servile? I'll tell you why. It's Western supremacist attitudes.
That's it. That's it. That's literally all this is. The notion that these people are
worthy of just death and destruction and they will never be able to, they will never
be able to retaliate is a Western supremacist notion. It is white supremacy. The idea
that like you can maintain chattel slavery as an institution and keep black people servile
with no retaliation whatsoever is the exact same fundamental principle of the false notion
that you can blow up entire city blocks in places like Lebanon, okay, with no expected
retaliation whatsoever.
What?
The fact that the party has given no indication of Hassan Nasrallah's health a few hours
after the strike is a worrying sign if he has indeed been assassinated, it would be a
thunderbolt unmatched in the region in recent decades.
If this is true, the likelihood of a direct Iranian attack rises far higher.
If there's possibility that the commander of the Lebanon front of the IRGC's Quds
Force was killed in the Israeli air raid on southern suburbs of Beirut, there is
a possibility that the commander of the Lebanon front of the IRGC's Quds Force
was killed in the Israeli air raid on the southern suburbs of Beirut, said
the IRGC affiliated submarine news. Do you stand with going with the ongoing war in Israel?
I'm just asking who he stands with. Bro, I stand with people, okay, human beings, civilians.
And for that reason, I of course stand firmly against Israel. One of my one of my most firm
commitments is to be anti genocide, no matter who's doing it, no matter who is being
genocided, okay? I stand with humanity. And as someone who is anti-genocide, of course,
I am against Israel, which is currently conducting a genocide and now has also escalated in almost
identical ways. It's war into Lebanon, a completely sovereign fucking nation-state. A nation-state
that happens to be bordered with Israel. So, you know, that's what's going to happen
to them. You know, they had it coming. They shouldn't have been fucking standing there.
Yeah, they're especially in Beirut. What are they reporting at this?
So many people believe is really propaganda. This is his Bolas fault. Yes, if you speak to
like depending on who you speak to, who is of Lebanese descent, you will hear very different
takes about this as well. Okay, there is an air of supremacist attitude towards Shia
Muslims inside of Lebanon that are especially from Lebanese people living in diaspora as well.
That's why, ironically, Capri, some poppy's father had a fucking argument with him, literally
on stream about how, oh, well, fuck Hezbollah, and the reason why Israel is bombing fucking
south Lebanon right now is because of Hezbollah, and then hours later, his own fucking farm
was bombed.
I wouldn't say that, like, the Lebanese diaspora Christians are indistinguishable
from ultra Zionists in the same way that like you know some Persians are they still have
like anger and resentment towards Israel but they certainly have in some instances more
anger and resentment towards as Bullah than anyone else like they they hate his below more
than they hate Israel sometimes it's it's it's you know it is what it is point what
are you hearing and seeing on their news broadcasts in the aftermath again this is
this is just an hour and a half ago or so
i mean right now most of what's being said this is that it
is trafficking off the damage and who was killed of course that we've heard
various things about uh...
you know about the full of being alive we've heard various reports
uh... i've actually had to see any kind of official statement from him a lot
of them
all right before we get to uh...
benjamin in the hour giving a speech in the u n general assembly earlier
today which many people walked out of by the way
here it is diplomats uh exited the general assembly hall in protest when niny out at the
podium the impunity biden has offered israel has been used by niny out to make his real
and international rio and the conflict
wait hold on i mean i think this video is talking of israel and the conflict
anthony blinkin is live let's hear from the fucking animal himself i i can't wait
i can't wait for him to justify all of the things that happened and to be like i'm
really mad at israel maybe they should dial it back after celebrating the schedule
accomplishment the overwhelming majority of countries yeah and we're also gonna
give a three-minute outbreak here okay I'm serving that to you and tactically
speaking you can avoid those ads by subscribing which you can do for six
dollars well four dollars and twenty cents in the month of September or for
free with a touch prime or by getting gifted a sub if you are lucky here is
the three-minute outbreak now let's hear what this animal has to say and is
using to devastate Ukrainian homes who needs grids and ports as we saw this
support for Ukraine is not just rhetorical, it's tangible.
Okay, but Israel's doing Putin's job.
Dozens of countries came together to help Ukraine rebuild the G7 and other partners,
made additional commitments to strengthen its energy infrastructure in the face of Russia's ongoing assault.
Do we have a...
Do we have a...
Sending more equipment, like a turbine for Ukraine to win this...
Okay, here it is.
...discussion that they continued in Washington on Thursday yesterday.
To help Ukraine's courageous defenders and citizens, we announced a surge of support,
$8 billion in security assistance, including long-range munitions, an additional Patriot
Air Defense System, and training for more Ukrainian F-16 pilots.
Starting with the Quad Leaders Summit in Washington, Wilmington on Saturday and throughout this
week, we've also advanced our vision for a free, open, secure, prosperous Indo-Pacific.
Biden met with the Vietnamese General Secretary,
no longer to deepen the comprehensive strategic
partnership between our countries.
We're enhancing cooperation on everything from creating
resilient semiconductor supply chains to addressing
environmental challenges along the Nekong River.
We'll continue those conversations in a couple
of weeks when we get together at the ASEAN Summit
in Laos.
Along with my counterparts from Japan and South Korea,
we took measures to institutionalize our
trilateral cooperation building on the historic
Camp David summit, and reaffirming our shared commitment to creating a trilateral secretariat
to advance this work.
Just now, I concluded a candid and substantive meeting with China's farm minister, Wang Yi.
We discussed steps to implement the commitments that our leaders made at Woodside last year,
like working to disrupt the flow of synthetic drugs and precursor chemicals into the
United States, improving communications between our militaries, discussing the risks of
artificial intelligence.
I emphasize the importance of maintaining peace and stability
across the Taiwan Strait and raise concerns
about the PRC's dangerous and destabilizing actions
in the South China Sea.
I also underscored our strong concern
with China's support for Russia's defense industrial base,
which fuels Russia's war machine
and perpetuates a war that China
reports to want to see ended.
Over the course of the week, we also
came together with our partners
many other crucial challenges facing the low.
We work toward a cessation of hostilities, unrestricted humanitarian access, and civilian
governance in Sudan.
We work to garner additional resources and support for the multinational security support
mission in Haiti.
We coordinated steps to increase international pressure on the Maduro regime in Venezuela
to stop its widespread repression of Venezuelan people to respect their will and their
votes, as expressed at the ballot box.
test and so many more underscore the magnitude of the challenges facing the globe, but also
the imperative of diplomacy. We don't have the luxury of pulling back.
Oh, man.
Coming hours and for every remaining day of this administration.
So much diplomacy happening.
We'll remain in touch with the focus on addressing these challenges as we work to make a better
world.
Let's just play this over him. This is American diplomacy, folks.
Mr. Secretary, a senior Israeli official just briefed the press on today's operation and
why they are still going into Lebanon.
The senior official said that their intel told them that there was a plan to encircle
Israel and eliminate Israel by 2040, that Sinwar on October 7th jumped the gun, that
they have been defending themselves ever since, that they felt that they feel that Nasrallah
was the key, the linchpin to all of this and his bala, that after a year they felt that
they had to get people back in their homes, that they went after Nasrallah and in today's
strike were targeting him clearly.
They don't know what they've achieved.
They still feel that when in the military you have momentum, that you have to keep going,
that they will be a lot farther along in their operation if it turns out that this was successful
in their terms today, but that they still, the official said, still have to keep going
and they are not ready to pause.
From your conversations, what is your perspective about whether Israel continuing with this operation
and not going in on the ground, which they said is not preferable?
But if doing this in what they consider a targeted way, is a legitimate response to
what they see as an existential threat, or if there is another alternative, a diplomatic
alternative?
Andrea, I will let Israel speak to their operations and their objectives.
It's not my place.
What are the effects of the American objectives in the American House?
We and many others have been clear about what we see to be the best path forward.
And the objective that Israel has in the first instance in Lebanon is an important and legitimate one.
It's creating an environment that's secure enough to enable people to return home
home because remember what happened on starting October 8th, Hezbollah started
lobbing rockets and missiles into Israel trying to create another front in the
war and Israel of course had to respond to that and in the process tens of
thousands of people had to evacuate their homes in northern Israel, villages
and homes were destroyed in southern Lebanon and so we have large populations
both in Israel and in Lebanon, who've been forcing their homes.
And it is a legitimate and important objective for Israel to, again, create an environment
in which people can get back to their homes.
The question is, what's the best way to do that?
What is the most effective, sustainable way to do that?
We believe in many other countries who joined us in putting out a call for a ceasefire
for 21 days, believe that the best way to do that is through diplomacy, through
a cease-fire and then reaching an agreement that pulls back forces from the border and gives people the confidence that they can go back to their houses, that the kids can go back to school.
So we believe that's the BFF word and the Israelis put out a statement earlier today sharing that they share the aims of...
Yeah, that was cool when Biden...
All that we put out, again, with the G7, with the EU, with key Arab partners.
So, the question is not, does Israel have a right to defend itself against terrorism?
Of course it does.
Israel has a right to defend itself is just a fucking way to say Israel does whatever it
wants, okay?
There has never been territorial gain under Israeli, under the history of Israel, okay,
for the past 76 years.
There has never been additional territorial gain that hasn't had that security justification.
This is the justification for all.
how they fucking invaded the West Bank and occupied it, okay? That's why when people say
Israel has a right to defend itself, they're doing this for defense, they just have to
fucking fight back against Hezbollah is, oh, there it is. IDF has now officially announced
evacuation orders for the southern suburbs of Beirut. You are located near Hezbollah
Interest and for your safety and the safety of your loved ones, you are obliged to
evacuate buildings immediately, which means if they give you an hour to evacuate,
They'll do it in 15 minutes.
It's coming.
More bombing will occur while fucking Anthony Blinken
is talking, while Benjamin Ennyahu is literally in US soil,
too.
We haven't even gotten to the fucking dumb ass
Benjamin Ennyahu speech.
Good stuff.
Administration, clear position on the policy
of targeted assassination.
And if I may please, one second question.
You've emphasized for calm along the northern borders.
And you have been working towards this goal
for the past 11 months.
Now, as we edge closer to a broader conflict,
could you specify what do you mean by Khan?
Are you referring to a return to the pre-October 7
status quo, implying a cessation of hostilities
or the full implementation of resolution 1701,
because it does matter for the Lebanese
and for the Israeli to understand
what are you proposing?
And just one final question, we are two weeks away from October 7th, Mr. Secretary, what
could you-
By the way, this will put the conflict back in the fucking forefront of the American population's
interests.
This is what I said when I told you early on that-
So first-
This is what I told you when I told you early on.
Foreign policy is not the major point of contention ever far from it until it becomes
the only thing people care about what happened what the intent was and until
we have that information I can't I can't address in detail our response to it so
we'll continue to work on that in the hours ahead with regard to a broader
conflict we've said very clearly you're right ever since October 7th at one
of our objectives besides making sure that Israel does what it needs to do to
make sure that October 7th never happens again besides doing everything we can to try to make
sure that people who are caught in this horrible crossfire, horrible crossfire, people who are
just caught in it, women, men, children and Gaza that they get the protection that they
need and the assistance they need. Besides that our objective has been to try to prevent
the war from spreading as well as escalating and on multiple occasions since October 7th
We seem to be on the verge of just that happening, including in the days immediately following
October 7th, and then again on several other occasions, most notably in April, and even
more recently than that.
And each and every time, the combination of American deterrence and American diplomacy
managed to prevent a wider war.
We're intensely focused on doing exactly that now, along with many other countries,
in our judgment, in the judgment of so many others, it's in no one's interest to have
a wider conflict. And so we're working in every possible way to prevent that from happening.
Now, in terms of where we think this should go, no, going back simply to October 6th
in terms of the border between Lebanon and Israel is not sufficient, because it's
It's not simply a matter of having a ceasefire, that is, Hezbollah firing into Israel, Israel
responding in a tit for tat.
What's necessary is to create the conditions, including moving forces back, such that people
in both northern Israel and southern Lebanon have the confidence to return home.
It would be important, finally, to make 1701 real, not simply a piece of paper.
surveillance, a senior Israeli source tells CNN that a confirmation of Hassan
Israel's death could come at any moment. That's what they're saying. According to
blog down from Turkey three hours three minutes ago through 1701. The
understanding was that any of the armed militia would put down their weapons.
The state should have a monopoly on the use of force. Has Bolan ever did
that, and it's presented an ongoing threat to Israel ever since, again, with the about
goal of eradicating it.
So in this instance, the most important thing to do, again, if the objective is to just get
people home, get kids back to school in Israel and in Lebanon, the most important thing
to do through diplomacy is to try first to start a fire in both directions.
And then to use the time that we would have in such a cease-fire to see if we can reach
a broader diplomatic agreement on this, I think it would have to proceed in phases.
But we have to have conditions on the ground such that people know with confidence that
they can be safe in their own homes.
One way flight prices to get back to the U.S. to get-
And finally, as we come to-
At this moment.
October 7th and the anniversary of that horror.
focus is not thinking about it. I want to point to something here. Once again, Israel
always vaguely gestures towards some broad security concern when it engages in territorial
acquisition in direct contradiction with international human rights law. Okay. There has never
been an instance where Israel is like, nah, we're just taking this fucking territory
because we want it, okay?
It's always, oh, there are people here
that we have to deal with militarily
because of our security concerns.
So we have to bomb them, then they bomb them,
they kill the civilians.
That creates a lot more resentment
amongst the civilian population there
that then understandably rise up in arms
against the fucking state, right?
Then once that area is evacuated,
Then settlers come in. Israel either directly or indirectly allows these settlers to set up camp.
Okay? Then comes the next problem. You have to protect these settlers. They're Israeli citizens. They're important.
So then they go in and they bring in the military apparatus. They build encampments. They build entire city blocks.
They build military, they build the military occupation and before you know it, they've
overtaken the entirety of the West Bank.
There is never a situation where Israel says, we want it, we are going to take it, okay?
They always use the vague security justifications.
We have to secure our people.
We have to secure Israeli interests.
We have to secure Israeli citizens.
And that's why we have to behave like this.
So when people say Israel has a right to defend itself, when they say we just have to simply
now invade southern Lebanon and occupy southern Lebanon because northern Israelis need to
go back to school, they need to go back to work, that is precisely what they are saying
and doing just like they did in Gaza, just like they did in the West Bank, just like
they did in Golan Heights, which is now permanently annexed internationally, not internationally
recognized but recognized by the United States as a part of Israel proper okay
that's it no one ever fucking calls it like living room the settlers do but the
Israeli state is not going to call it living space they're not gonna say
Liban's calm okay they're not they're simply going to say security concerns
they're vaguely gonna gesture towards that but the ultimate goal is land
land acquisition, okay?
The ultimate goal always is land acquisition.
That's it.
It's pure.
It's very simple.
Those military objectives have been achieved.
And so getting the hostages home,
putting Gaza on a better path,
I believe is in their interest.
It's manifesting the interests of people in Gaza
who would get immediate relief from the war,
immediate relief in terms of a surge
of humanitarian assistance,
and a commitment from the international community
to help them rebuild their lives.
And it should be in the interests of Hamas
if, as it says, it represents the interests
of those Palestinians and Gaza,
because the ceasefire would advance those interests.
So, irrespective of the individuals involved,
the interests are clear,
And whoever the individuals are, they'll
have to make determinations and decide.
Similarly, when it comes to Lebanon, same thing.
It's clearly in the interest of the Lebanese people
to have peace, to have security, to have stability,
to not live under threat.
And certainly in their interest to avoid a wider war,
where inevitably the biggest victim of such a war,
those who would suffer the most are the Lebanese people.
And so those who purport to represent their interests
and have their well-being at heart
should find a way to act on those interests
irrespective of the individuals involved.
And this is what so many of us are working to put forward.
We've been very clear in not just what we've said
but also in what we've done,
including the deployment of significant assets
in the region that we will do our part to deter further conflict, to deter escalation,
to deter a widening war.
And there are two sides to that coin, one to avoiding that wider war.
One is this deterrence, and we are committed to it.
But the other is diplomacy.
And as I mentioned before, on several occasions, since October 7th, we've been on what
we judged to be the brink of that wider war.
And through a combination of deterrence and diplomacy, we've managed to prevent
that that's what we're focused on now, and all parties in the region, I think including
Iran, know that and can see that.
And then finally with regard to Ukraine, I wasn't there because I was here in New York
representing the President and the administration.
So while I got a chance to see President Zelensky with President Biden briefly when they were
both in New York, the meeting that took place yesterday was one that I wasn't part of, and
I can tell you, though, from the readout that I got from the meeting, that it was not only
very good and very positive, but among other things that resulted in, or we announced
at the same time, the provision of significantly more assistance to the Ukrainians, notably
security and military assistance, more than $8 billion worth, that will carry us
through the end of this administration.
In the conversation between the President, President Biden and President Zelensky, the
Ukrainians presented their plan for victory, and I'll let them speak to the details of
that, including what's necessary in their judgment to achieve it.
And we're studying it very carefully, and that includes what, if any, additional
things we or other partners of Ukraine would be called on to do in order to help
them achieve that success.
But the President has been very clear that he's committed to Ukraine's success.
He's committed to making sure that they have what they need to effectively defend themselves
as well.
I've said it many times and I'll say it again.
Every step along the way we've adapted and adjusted to those needs and I'm convinced
we'll continue to do so.
And for the final question, Mark Manier with South China Morning Post.
Hi, Mr. Secretary.
Thank you very much.
Brazil and China a couple of hours ago pushed further on this idea of pushing
of sort of mediating with a peace plan.
Can I get your reaction to that?
Is it a distraction?
Is there a useful part of that, particularly
in light of President Swensky's opposition to it?
Related to that, Ambassador Nick Burns yesterday,
I believe, basically signaled that there could be
more sanctions on China related to their dual use.
All right, let's see what Shannon is doing
on his live stream.
Given that at this point we seem to have about 300
times of violence against China,
and there's not too much evidence
that they have managed to change China's behavior.
Let's see the fact that Mr. Beirut,
this is a very dangerous and dangerous scene,
listen to him carefully.
He lives in the night,
and he lives in the city of Namuneer.
To the residents of southern suburbs of Beirut,
al-Lilaki neighborhood, Minershadeen building,
and neighboring buildings as shown on the map,
al-Hadath neighborhood,
sheet building and adjacent building shown on the map, El Haddad district, El Salam complex.
You are located near Hezbollah interest and for your safety and the safety of your loved
ones you are obligated, you are obliged to evacuate the buildings immediately and
move away from them at a distance no less than 500 meters.
Now what you need to understand here is that they're saying they are going to start
blowing up buildings again.
What you also need to understand is that those fucking,
like this announcement is coming in midnight, okay?
This announcement is coming to the Lebanese population
at fucking midnight.
U.S. airborne troops arrive in Israel, what?
No, this is a standard SENTCOM deployment
that is part of a regular rotation announced two weeks ago.
I mean, for all the liberals out there,
Do you think the gays in and what trains you mean trans people will be more safe as the bull has taken out?
You don't think it's real will have plans to cover mom
They're asked right after getting the line if you really care about those people you see the bigger picture
No, it's not even that because the reality is it's not like has Bola is super fucking well
They might be pro-trans, but they're not exactly pro-gay, right? They're not they're fundamentalist their operation
They're like internal governance is certainly Islamist fundamentalist. That is that that is a fact
okay
Not to the same degree as like Saudi Arabia mind you but that doesn't really fucking matter because Saudi Arabia is our ally
Anyway here. Let's see what the CNN breaking news looks like a root the blast
Flatten the buildings in the Lebanese capital you had Nick Robertson described
He's a war expert and knows exactly the size of the column, the length of time it took for that smoke to rise, the depth of the bunker that they were targeting.
According to the IDF, the attack was a precision strike on Hezbollah's headquarters.
Now the unknown, of course, is whether firstly Hassan Nasrallah was there and if he was, did he survive?
officials on the US and Israel say Washington was kept in the dark until the operation was
underway. The White House officials were furious that Benjamin Netanyahu had dismissed a ceasefire
proposal on Thursday and then proceeded as they have. Kevin Liptak is at the White House.
Netanyahu goes, he very barely gives a speech and he's back home again or at least he's on
his way home. And this is rather tricky. Yeah, I think it is. And when you talk to
American officials, they do say that this is obviously a precarious moment, and they're
trying to emphasize two things. One is that they didn't have any involvement in the strike
itself, and you heard that from President Biden a little bit earlier, saying that the
U.S. was involved and had no knowledge. The other thing they're trying to emphasize
is that they didn't know ahead of time that this was going to be a strike targeting
Hassan Nasrallah. And what we did learn is that essentially the U.S. Defense Secretary
learned about the strike as it was underway in a phone call with his israeli counterpart
the planes were already in the air and so the US is trying very much to distance itself
from the actual event.
Come on dude.
The question now for American officials is of course.
He made the fucking call from US soil inside of an American hotel blocks away from the
United Nations General Assembly.
on Wednesday evening and that the next morning Netanyahu rejected out of hand as
you mentioned American officials were furious at that there was a number of
intense meetings in New York. They were so furious that they gave nine billion
additional dollars of weapons to Israel two days ago. The confidant essentially
what Anthony Blinken the Secretary of State told Dermer in their meeting was
that Israel would need to come out with a statement saying that it was
supportive of a ceasefire broadly of course that was all before this event in
Beirut now the open question is what happens next and certainly American
officials very urgently trying to de-escalate the situation. Right, this
speed and willingness to distance themselves we knew nothing about it
it's got the overtones of and we wouldn't have supported it if we'd known
about it in advance is that fair? Well I think when you talk to American
officials certainly no one is going to mourn the death of Hassan Nasrallah if he is in fact dead
but the fact that this was happening at a moment when they were trying to ease the tensions and
lower the temperature not only on the border between Israel and Lebanon but also in Gaza
I think that American officials would say that the timing was just not right at a moment when
this whole situation seems like it could tip over into a wider regional war very easily and very
quickly. That's not to say that they don't support taking out Nasrallah broadly. They
view Hezbollah as a terrorist organization and they view Nasrallah as something of a
terrorist. Of course, he leads Hezbollah. So I don't think that American officials
would necessarily discount the import of that, but the timing I think is what's
in question.
How difficult is this with such nuanced, dangerous, risky, geopolitical happenings of as neutral
as I can be, Kevin, five, six weeks from the US election where neither candidate wants to
be seen to go too far one way or the other because you will lose votes from the opposite
side.
President Biden is looking particularly, how does that say, impotent in this sense, to
be able to force Israel to do anything.
And you couldn't make it up.
You've got Ukraine worsening, you've got Gaza, you've got now Southern Lebanon, and
we're six weeks away from a U.S. election.
Absolutely.
And it's such a complicated dynamic, in particular for the vice president, obviously
Kamala Harris, who has said nothing specific about how she would handle this situation any
differently than President Biden. President Biden, of course, has tried and tried again
to achieve a ceasefire in Gaza to no effect whatsoever. Harris, whenever she's asked about
the conflict in the Middle East, simply says that it would be resolved if Hamas would
agree to a hostage deal. But she hasn't said how she would do it, and certainly
President Biden hasn't been able to do it either.
When it comes to President Trump, there's no question that he is on the side of Israel
that essentially he would continue the American perspective of allowing Israel the arms and
weapons to carry out the strikes that it's carrying out in both Lebanon and Gaza.
And so I think when you talk to voters and when you think about this from a voter
perspective, they see a world that is essentially on fire.
They don't necessarily see a plan to take it under control.
And I think when you're both of these candidates, the struggle is to try and convince American
voters that you have the capacity to do something.
Harris, so far, hasn't necessarily said exactly how she would do any of that.
Again, you've got a busy few hours ahead of you, so please don't go too far away.
At the moment, there's more from the White House, all from Capitol Hill.
You're in Washington.
You're a man there.
We expect you to hear from you.
Thank you.
I need to bring to your attention more breaking news.
Hezbollah has fired a barrage of rockets at the city of Safad in northern Israel according to the forces there
Around 30 rockets were fired in total some of which were intercepted
officials said at least two of them hit the city we'll find out the damage and the
Damage assessment in the fullness of time
Great stuff, man. Thanks
Um
It's it's just I don't know what to say like I don't I don't know what to make of any of this beyond
Yeah, I mean Noah had a good take on this
Yeah, he said Kim was an anus quit Nasrallah death watch for a second to absorb the hundreds of people Israel mark for death
No, okay go back to stroking yourselves off while waiting for more news
like people I
Don't I don't understand how people don't recognize how every time you do like a
Like, you pop open the fucking champagne bottles and talk about how fucking wonderful of an act that Israel engaged in that just killed a shit ton of people.
You're just, you're not, you're not calculating the human toll, you're not calculating the possible retaliation.
Yes, I intend on watching Benjamin and Yahoo's UN speech. The problem is after in the immediate aftermath of his fucking UN speech, he turned around and, and, and, you know, bombed Lebanon.
That is now the Prime Minister of Israel Benjamin Netanyahu.
We'll wait for this. I mean, I'm gonna, I'm brought, I'm probably going to cut away from this to the at the rear Admiral Daniel Higari speech that will be coming out in like, in a couple minutes.
about to address the General Assembly. Let's listen in.
Ladies and gentlemen, order.
Yeah, people walked out from the General Assembly when...
Order, please.
What we're seeing, ladies and gentlemen,
a lot of people walking out of the General Assembly
and the moment in which Benjamin Netanyahu walked in
to address his, to give his address,
perhaps a sign, a bit of taking of the temperature
as to how that session of the world body feels about his.
The thing is, I'm going to explain to you again, I'm going to explain to you again, like, when
you think like, oh, American soldiers returning home in fucking caskets because they went
out there and deployed at the behest of Israel.
If you think that that is going to stop the American government, you're wrong, okay?
We went to Iraq for oil.
didn't stop. We went to Afghanistan and maintained control over opium production that mysteriously
only went to Europe by the way, not never to America. America's opium comes from China.
And it really doesn't matter. Like no amount of human toll, even Americans dying will not change
the American trajectory. That's it. That's it. Look at Vietnam. Look at America's history of
bloody conquest. America obviously doesn't give a shit about its own veterans beyond like a talking
point every now and then when talking about like immigration or something. This country does not
give a fuck about anything including its own citizens, okay? So it might piss people off
when they see their loved ones die because they wanted to get fucking free college and thought
they could just like, you know, maybe get on a boat for a couple months and then come back here
and get a fucking free college education is their only mechanism for upward social mobility
to participate in the same shit job market that everyone else is participating in with a
fucking communication degree. But it doesn't change the attitude of the State Department.
It never did and it won't in this circumstance as well because what will happen?
Biden and Kamala Harris are full-blown in the tank for Israel's genocide. They have telegraphed that,
right? They've telegraphed that. They're like, no, we're in the tank. We love this.
Double suicide pack. We're on board. M is real high. Okay?
Okay. American troops get deployed into the Middle East to defend Israel. This is a very
unpopular decision but sorry we just have no other alternative Israel is the
most moral nation on the planet we have to defend them and by defend we mean we
have to defend their interests they have to overtake with military occupation
southern Lebanon and they simply can't do that on their own they can't even
fucking deal with Hamas in Gaza right of course they're not going to be able
to destroy Hezbollah in southern Lebanon. So what will happen? We send troops. The American
public is very frustrated with this because obviously for months they're like, well, we
wanted a ceasefire. I kind of forgot about it because there were brat means going on.
It luckily was not, you know, Joe Biden that I hated that I thought was really old and
I was embarrassed to vote for him and I want to vote against Donald Trump. But people
will go, okay, you're not doing shit. I'm staying home. I'm not fucking voting for you. And
more and more people will say that, okay, potentially. And then Trump will win. And
then what, what does Trump do in this situation? You think Trump will go, okay, it's time
to fucking have cooler minds prevail? Fuck no. That's it. That is the bipartisan nature
That is the uniparty when it comes to American foreign policy.
Okay.
It's not like Trump is going to be like, all right, well, it's time to rain it in.
Let's change trajectory.
Let's reassess our, uh, of the, our allegiance to Israel.
But I think he's fucking more in the tank for Israel.
Trump would nuke Lebanon himself personally.
Huh.
Fuck.
I'm in Lebanon waiting for the airstrike.
Be safe.
Chatters.
I don't know what else to say other than that.
here's the defense secretary that an all-out war should be avoided the
policy continues to be the best way forward and it's the fastest way until
that displaced Israeli and Lebanese citizens return to their homes on both
sides of the border I'll be talking with Minister Gaunt again soon and I
I'd look to get an update from him when we have that conversation.
Thank you very much.
It's your level of frustration.
It's your level of frustration.
Good job.
Good job.
Well, Jim Trudeau, you know, nothing revolutionary from the Defense Secretary.
You said exactly what you would expect him to say.
All that was should be avoided.
Diplomacy is the way forward.
Displaced citizens should return.
It's almost mirror for mirror what Anthony Blinken said.
in the last hour, but the way they are saying it, Jim,
and the fact that they are seemingly powerless
to put any influence or greater influence on Israel
that's determined to continue, what does that tell you?
Listen, it tells you at a very minimum
that there is daylight between the US position
on this conflict and the Israeli position
the conflict and not for the first time.
If you go back months into this conflict, U.S. officials have been pushing for greater
attention, for instance, to civilian casualties in Gaza, not getting it to the degree that
they wanted, certainly.
The U.S. invested an enormous diplomatic capital to get a ceasefire in Gaza, didn't go anywhere.
Of course, Hamas has a major part in that, but frustration with Israeli officials.
And now, Richard, this massive strike, decapitation strike, at least attempted one against Nassau
in Lebanon comes in the midst of another.
Remember, the cold calculated military analyst style commentary on this issue is to manufacture
consent that this is a cold calculated tactical decision and not simply just complete death
and destruction for a civilian population that happens to reside in F***ing Dahia in
southern Beirut.
But if the US is impotent to put further pressure, at what point does the US say, I do not mean
this literally, but I'm using it as a metaphor that will give the importance and significance
of what I'm saying.
So take that as that.
At what point does the US go nuclear in a sense, politically, with Israel, to say
this has got to stop and whether it's no arms coming to you we will cut money it's got to stop
it's not clear ever right i mean at least with this administration because there have been a
number of points where that has been dangled right and perhaps a delay or two over the course of
the last year but that that breaking point hasn't happened and i think one can reasonably read
that Benjamin Netanyahu has calculated that that point will not come, and
particularly will not come before the US election. So listen, there's some
gamesmanship going on here and the Israeli Prime Minister making decisions
in his perception of his country's interests here. And oftentimes the
views of those interests and US interests have been in contradiction
between US and Israeli officials. I do, Richard, have some news to report
regarding the strike in Lebanon, this comes from a former senior Israeli official who
tells me the following, and this speaks to Israel's confidence that Hasan Nasrallah was
at least there where this strike occurred.
This former senior official tells me Israel would not have attacked with such scope
and power if it was not sure with a very high degree of certainty that the ultra-terrorist
was there, the ultra-terrorist that this former Israeli official is describing
So that at least had confidence based on their intelligence that he was there
They have not yet confirmed whether his injured or killed in the strike
Jim you'll come back at the moment it that is late for you coming up towards me the ultra mega terrors, bro
He's the Omega here. He's got long nails of duty ahead of you. I'm grateful to you, sir
This is CNN. We're walking the line the tricky line of keeping you informed
informed, letting you know what is happening, but obviously not transgressing into the rampant
speculation that is neither helpful.
Why is this man, why do they have fucking British Gilbert Gottfried doing the coverage
right now?
It is like the most unhinged.
Reporters on all of this, and when someone like Jim Shooter is talking about what is
happening and what he is hearing, the high level of confidence.
say even while opium for other countries what interest do they have now?
Israel's own personal interest?
And then you take what Nick Robertson was saying about the extent of the rebel, the
territorial ambition.
If that's what you're asking, they just, they will inevitably have the fucking rabid
sociopathic settlers try and settle in fucking southern Lebanon and then they'll have more
security concerns just like they had in the West Bank, just like they had in Gaza,
like they had in Golan Heights in Syria. It's always a security concern. The security concern
is just how you package your fascist ideology and constant land acquisition to the Western
world. That's it. Both internally, you yell about security concerns to your, to liberal
Zionists and everyone alike. And in the Western world, you talk about your security
concerns because that's just the name of the game. If you had concerns for the security,
what the fuck are people doing in the West Bank? Like, why are they in the West Bank?
Syrias in opposition held areas are celebrating possible news about Nasrallah, such a crazy
range of reactions. I mean, it's not that crazy. Yeah, a lot of people fucking hate,
uh, yeah, people hate Hasan Nasrallah, of course. Of course, Syrians that, um,
Of course, Syrians that fucking hate Hasan Nasrallah are going to celebrate the potential death of Hasan Nasrallah.
Hezbollah has been pretty fucking brutal in areas of Syria.
Like, yeah, by the way, they talked about how definitive his death was, and they've changed the definitive nature of Hasan Nasrallah's death.
who maybe he died but we still don't know they got from we killed them to we're
pretty sure he was there soon to be it's just a bunch of babies and women were
killed and they were just human shields and deserved it who had JDM is under
their bed yeah I'm Lebanese and 70% of the Lebanese hate him too I wouldn't
say 70% I mean you're talking about Hezbollah which currently as it stands
I believe is the most has gotten the most votes out of any individual single
party in the Lebanese parliament system. There are obviously allegiances amongst many other
parties outside of the scope of Hezbollah. Why do you write your name as Hassan and spell
it as Hassan? They are two different names. Wait, what? Okay, shut the fuck up, dumbass.
Never mind. I take it back. Don't fuck. My name is Hassan, okay? H-A-S-A-N. And
I say it as it is. The popularity of Hezbollah, the popularity of Hezbollah has gone down
in the last decade or so post 2006. Okay. But his popularity, or Hasan Nasrallah's popularity
does not factor into the equation of Israel bombing southern Beirut. Okay. The fuck are
you talking about? If anything, it galvanized people on the ground into hating Israel
more. It legitimizes, Hezbollah is at its peak popularity when Israel's invading, okay?
And now there's panic in these neighborhoods as people are fleeing for their fucking lives
because of the immediate evacuation orders that were given to people in Beirut. Remember,
a couple days prior, a couple days prior, these people had evacuated to Beirut from
other parts of southern Lebanon that were being blown up by Israeli rockets.
A clearer picture could not be given to you of how similar this is to what Israel did in Gaza.
Okay, they did this exactly. They did this in the exact same way. The justifications are the same.
It's always the same. The carnage is the same. The targets are the fucking same.
Even the sound is the same. It went from Hamas to Hasbollah. That's it.
It's the exact same playbook and the media's defense of these actions are also identical
I mean in terms of like the Dahiya doctrine that we have talked about
This doctrine became military doctrine in Dahiya, which is where Israel is bombing now in Lebanon in southern Beirut
It has been deployed in every single conflict that Israel has engaged with since then aren't these guys terrorists though
I don't know what the fuck is wrong with you, man
You see a bunch of fucking fleeing civilians in their cars and you go aren't these guys terrorists though
I don't know I I don't want to immediately ban you because I feel as though so many Americans are just so fucking conditioned
So conditioned into you know looking at this situation and going oh well they're terrorists. They deserve it
Please man, please open your fucking eyes. Okay?
I'm trying my very best to just look at all this insane Orientalism, Orientalism, insane Islamophobia and just like
Just try to fucking change people's
Understanding of this side of the world. It's its presence right now
No, no, I just got here
Ladies and gentlemen, I didn't intend to come here this year. My country is at war
fighting for its life. But after I heard the lies and slanders leveled at my
country by many of the speakers at this podium, I decided to come here and set
the record straight. Here, this is the terrorist, okay, the top terrorist. I
decided to come here to speak for my people, to speak for my country, to
speak for the truth. And here's the truth. Israel seeks peace.
Moments after this, he went back to his fucking hotel room in New
York, mere blocks away from the United Nations General Assembly
and called for an air strike on six buildings in the middle of
fucking Beirut with a 2.5 million population, which is
probably higher now because of all the fucking Lebanese
people that escaped Southern Lebanon into Beirut as they evacuated away from other places that
he had bombed days prior and killed hundreds of people. Not even after a song before saying
that. Oh, he did it before the speech according to Ynet. Nice. By the way, I'm pretty sure
Jeremy Scales said those people cheering the audience, particularly during the UNGA
walkout, were people they brought in for the intention of making it look like Israel
has support. They were basically actors brought in. All the cheering you're hearing is
from people like Schmooley in the peanut gallery that Netanyahu invited to his address by the
way. Yeah, it's stuff. Wait, what? What would stop an a greater power like a UAE from stepping
in and stopping Israel UAE? UAE is doing its own Israel shit through a proxy with
the RSF in Sudan right now. The fuck is the UAE going to do to stop Israel? What
What are they going to do? Use American weapons against Israel?
You think the UAE is going to use their American armaments against Israel?
How do you think they got the armaments to begin with? How do you think they got the
miniatures to begin with? They're also too busy fucking using their own again,
doing their own Israel style death and destruction campaign by way of the RSF in Sudan.
again. Good luck to the UAE. The UAE will never defend Palestine. Are you kidding me?
Don't give a fuck about anything. And neither does Saudi Arabia, okay? The only place that
isn't like firmly and completely aligned with Israel, I guess, would be considered
Qatar. And that is because they're basically the Switzerland, okay? That's it. There
There needs to be a place, there needs to be a Switzerland in the fucking region, and
that happens to be Qatar.
No, Egypt is not the Switzerland at all.
Egypt is also a willing participant and is single-handedly propped up by an American
puppet state and is basically reliant on every country in the region as an American
puppet.
are not as overtly American puppets as others. What about the great power Oman? Yes, sorry.
I mean, of course, Qatar is also an American puppet state. Qatar and Turkey are also both
American puppet states, but they're the ones that also sometimes will like,
like they, they have a more neutral assessment of the situation. That's why you have all
the fucking formerly all the Hamas civilian envoys living in fucking Doha
down the street from some of the chatters in here right now as a matter of fact in the same
fucking neighborhood. Why does the virus want to sanction China, Turkey, India and UAE for
trading with Russia? Good luck. This is why I said earlier that the populations
in these countries understandably hate Israel. Okay? But the top brass, the government officials,
the monarchs, and those who have a stake in the continuation of American weapons contracts coming
in, they are in a holding pattern. They basically have to be responsive to the anger and resentment
of their own civilian population, while still maintaining the same order of business with
the state of Israel and with the United States of America.
Their job is to basically go, we hear you, we see you, fuck Israel, you're absolutely
correct.
I can't believe all the stuff that they're doing, while, you know, they have to say
that so that there's no fucking riots that end up causing a change of governance in
these countries. Are you going to talk about Lebanon and Hassan Nasrallah? What's Lebanon?
All bite. Who's Hassan Nasrallah? All bite. Is that like an important person in this process?
Like I don't really know. I think Lebanon or where gay women come from? Yeah, that's what it is.
That's such a funny thing to say here by the way to be like are you gonna are you gonna
to talk about Lebanon and Hassan Nasrallah. It seems like your silence is
deafening. Your silence on Hassan Nasrallah is deafening, okay?
Especially at the top of the hour. It rings hollow. When you serve a three
minute ab break, it feels simply like you are passing time in order to avoid
talking about Hassan Nasrallah again, okay? And that's what's going on here. I
I should probably get back to talking about politics, but you can also listen to the uninterrupted

Here's a two minute ad break now.
Orbital Pyramid, thank you for the five gifted subs.
Do you think Hezbollah will have any success if Israel goes through the ground invasion?
looking at their track record so far apps the fucking Lutely unless America
intervenes the entire reason as to why Israel is doing this fuck shit right now
instead of like doing up boots on the ground invasion in Lebanon is because
they also recognize that if they were to send the diaper brigade into southern
Lebanon the same diaper brigade that is already fucking devastated by the
the ongoing genocide that it, you know, is conducting in Gaza, like they can't, dude, listen,
they cannot, they cannot even deal with their own occupied territory in Gaza.
How the fuck do you expect them to successfully launch an attack against a much better equipped
standing military with much better weapons with a track record of literally fucking beating
the IDF before. We are aware of sending Iranian weapons that has Bola and neutralized them.
Air Force planes are patrolling the area of Beirut airport. So far, unlike Syria, the Lebanese
government has acted responsibly over the years and has not allowed the transfer of
weapons from this airport. They're threatening to blow up the fucking airport.
that's crazy. Are we glazing the Hezbollah's too much? Are they really that good? Look,
I only can act on what has happened in the past. Okay, and Hezbollah has grown in its ranks and
its military capability since 2006. That's it. Successfully thwarted an Israeli invasion
already. Wait, is Israel or Hezbollah threatened to blow up the airport? Israel is, man. Why
How the fuck would Hezbollah blow up their own civilian airport?
What are you talking about?
Is really enemy army calls on residents in southern suburbs of Beirut?
Oh yeah, we covered this already.
Immediately evacuate.
Panic is already set in amongst the population, the civilian population of Beirut.
But on that, there seems to be a warning about the airport that Israel is clearly watching
developments there and what sort of planes fly in and what sort of planes fly out.
And I think again we heard from him the warning there to the civilians that you
who may be sleeping close to Hezbollah leaders,
and that they will continue with this information.
Look, part of what the IDF is trying to do, probably,
at this stage, not particularly successfully,
is inform the Lebanese people that Israel is not targeting them.
The Lebanese people, Israel is targeting Hezbollah,
trying to make that distinction.
The success rate on that messaging is probably not very high,
but that is part of what they're trying to do here, it seems.
Next, you've got more work to do later,
but stay with me for the moment.
Fareed is with me.
Fareed Zakaria, I have stuff.
Fareed Zakaria, GPS.
As you look, Fareed, what is happening tonight.
In the coming hours, we're gonna
touch on the details of what has been
the underground infrastructure here in the heart of the heat.
This is a coastal missile array built with Iran.
I think what you're witnessing here
is a very carefully thought through Israeli strategy.
Israel was surprised on October 7th.
They were not expecting the terrorist attack from Hamas.
They were not expecting to be dragged into the complicated ground operation that they
have in Gaza.
And all of that I think has caused a lot of consternation within the Israeli establishment
and military.
This was one they have been planning for for a long time.
Israel has been thinking to itself, how do we defang Hezbollah?
And unlike Gaza, what Israel likes to do is, you know, short wars, lightning strikes, and
on some...
Did you listen to the daily episode while they still hold some prestige as protectors
of Lebanon from Israel?
It seems that the sentiment has been, why did you drag us into this war?
It feels like targeting large city centers like Beirut will shift public opinion back
to Hezbollah.
Dog, that's the New York Times manufacturing consent.
Hezbollah still very much maintains prestige as like the only successful military that
that has been able to, over the course of many, many years, develop into perhaps the only
standing military of Lebanon. And yes, they are seen as a defensive force. There are definitely
Lebanese people that don't like Hezbollah in its domestic policies, for sure. But like
when Lebanese people see this shit or know that this shit is coming, especially when
they have experienced this shit not that long ago, it only galvanizes the Hezbollah
opposition that they'll make this I mean looking they said tonight it's changed
the rules basically whether that's all that they said they changed the rules but
they said that before they said before that they will punish Israel and we've
not seen if you will commensurate punishment to the losses that have
been inflicted is this the one where they really go for it I don't think so
I thought I talked to the president of Iran. We have the interview on my show on Sunday
It's the first interview. He's given to a Western
Media outlet and he sounded now this was before the attack
But he sounded restrained and he made the point that look
His bullet does not have the kind of weaponry to counter Israel strikes. It is a you know, Israel is much more powerful
I was surprised that the president of Iran would admit that and in by implication
He was even sort of saying it about Iran itself.
The Iranian strategy, I think, is different.
And in its own way, it's effective, which is to keep the pressure on Israel from Hamas,
from Hezbollah, from the Houthis.
No, they're right.
They don't have any fucking anti-air capability.
What are you talking about?
What that does is it diverts shipping from the Persian Gulf.
It makes it so that very few airlines are flying into Jerusalem anymore.
You know it used to be something like 62 and I saw a report that you know that said you're down to one LL
So in other words you make it difficult for Israel to have business as usual the businesses can't work that
Travel and tourism industry doesn't work. This was reservists normally take a two months are now out
You know for a year in the army
So it's a kind of slow grinding
You know keep the temperature high, but they don't have the capacity either to really
back and that's why you correctly point out they've said it many times Richard
but they have actually rarely delivered because they know that the Israelis
would be able to punch counterpunch much harder so I think we're beyond the days
we're on that we're beyond the times now for reading it would be not outside it
would be not outside of the scope of expected results if they accidentally
fucking fired on American flights. If they're taking this aggressive of a posture that would
literally even though they are round the clock communicating with one another. Okay. It would
not even it would not be beyond the scope of reason if they accidentally blew up a fucking
American fighter jet idea spokesman rear Admiral Daniel Hagar even though they are communicating
was one another in real time. Rear Admiral Daniel Hagar says it's really just a patrol
in the airspace near Beirut International Airport. It will not allow hostile flights
with weapons to land there. It is a civilian airport for civilian purposes and he needs
to say that way, he said.
Deal with Hezbollah. I think it has wide public support. So BB can do it with the
full knowledge. He has a lot of backing for it. And the Biden people can't do much
because the Israelis are going to do it no matter what. And as you say, the
The only weapon they have is they could withhold military aid, which they're not going to do
because Israel has strong support in the United States, particularly among Republicans.
Now Trump, I think, looks at this with glee because it makes the Biden administration
look impotent.
It makes them squirm.
It makes the Democrats are caught between two camps within their party.
And as the outsider, you know, he can always criticize.
So I think that this is good for Trump.
Great.
I need to let you go.
I'm grateful for your time tonight.
I will talk more about it in the days and weeks.
Thank you, sir.
Thank you very much.
Let's take a short break while we pause, regroup, and when I come back, I'll bring
you up to date with what we know.
They sang an entire U.S. Navy ship in 1967.
Yes.
But that was 1967.
It didn't happen in broad daylight in front of fucking millions of eyeballs.
But it doesn't matter.
America is, dude, even if they fucking, even if they blew up, even if they blew up an American
fighter jet or accidentally killed, like, American military, it does not change America's
calculation.
Higari says military will soon strike underground Hezbollah sites in the Dahiya suburb of Beirut
and therefore warn civilians in the area to evacuate immediately.
This is the Daniel Higari statement translated.
In the coming hours, we are going to strike strategic capability that Hezbollah placed
underground under three buildings in the heart of the Dahiyyah.
Over the years, Hezbollah built and developed an array of coast-to-sea missiles that originate
in Iran, noting the 2006 attack on the INS Hanit, killing four sailors.
Nasrallah himself threatened Israel's vital and strategic facilities at sea and near
the coast.
We will now reveal how Hezbollah places strategic weapons under civilian buildings
in the heart of Dahiyyah.
These missiles are a real threat to world shipping lanes and strategic facilities
of the state of Israel. In short while, we will attack the weapons under those buildings.
The intensity of the explosion of the weapons under the buildings will lead to damage the
buildings and could lead to their collapse. The IDF issued evacuation warnings to three
buildings and their surroundings a short while ago. Holy fuck, they are going to
use insane ordinances. Higari warns that the military will not allow any weapons
transfers that the Hezbollah terror group, including via Beirut's international airport,
We will not allow the transfer of weapons to the Hezbollah terror group in any way.
We know of Iranian weapons transfers to Hezbollah and we will foil them.
Air Force planes are now patrolling the Beirut airport area.
Until now Lebanon, contrary to Syria, acted over the years responsibly and did not allow
the transfer of weapons through the civilian airport.
We are announcing we will not allow enemy flights with weapons to land at the civilian
airport in Beirut.
This is a civilian airport for civilian use and it must say that way he adds.
This gives just cause in the eyes of Western media and the Western governments that if they
end up blowing up the Beirut airport, the civilian airport, they will be like, well,
we gave four more years.
The breaking news.
An Israeli official now says, later of Hezbollah, was the target of a massive airstrike in
Beirut.
And other intelligence says that the Israelis have high confidence that Israel was in
the buildings that were then destroyed by the Israeli forces attacking the Lebanese capital.
According to the IDF, it was a precision strike on Osbolaz headquarters. Now, the whereabouts
and what happened to Nasrallah, we simply don't know. The spokesman for Israel's IDF
has said, told us a moment or two ago, that they were waiting further information and
they hoped to have more precise details in a while.
US and Israeli officials say Washington was largely kept in the dark until the operation
was underway.
The Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin has been speaking.
He hits on familiar talking points and frankly didn't say much else.
What I will say is that you've heard me say a number of times that an all-out war should
be avoided.
And we have no knowledge on the, what happened in Israel.
Clearly some frustration, and I think you can hear it there a bit from Defense Secretary
Lloyd Austin.
He certainly doesn't reveal much, that's very much his nature, but again a level of frustration
that the U.S. was told moments before that Israel was carrying out a strike or a major
operation in Lebanon while the planes were effectively already in the air.
So no real point in trying to consult there or talk through things.
strike was already well underway and it's worth pointing out this is the second time
in days this has happened. It was exactly 10 days ago that Austin was on the phone with
his Israeli counterpart and got a heads up that an Israeli operation would take place
in Lebanon. Well it's not a very useful piece of information because of the range of Israeli
operations we've seen in Lebanon and then US officials only learned that it was exploding
pagers when they saw those reports emerging from Lebanon. So this is now at least twice
over the course of a week and a half and you can sense the frustration on the US side.
On top of that, the US has been pushing for a ceasefire, thought they had the Israelis
on board, and then Benjamin Netanyahu lands and makes it clear that he has no interest
in a ceasefire.
It's worth trying to learn more about how related are those two, Richard.
Did Netanyahu find out he had a chance to go after Hassan Nasrallah and therefore
decided to abandon the US plan, or was it something different there?
Will U.S. pushing diplomacy when it seems so unlikely right now?
All right, that depends again.
It's going to be a late night for you as well.
When there's more to report, come back to me please immediately.
Thank you.
Karagapa was the U.S. Ambassador to Oman, the former ambassadors with me now.
Sir, the situation and the ability to get out of this without getting much worse
is just about impossible now.
Well, thank you for having me.
First of all, indeed, the situation does look grim.
Clearly what Israel has done today is a marked increase in the escalation of the conflict
that has been going on for years, if not decades, between Hezbollah and the state
of Israel.
I think what is clear here is that Israel has every intention of decapitating this
organization, which it views after Iran as yeah, now we hear from our fucking like former
current active State Department officials members of the military industrial complex
eliminate something like seven or nine top leaders within as well as so it's not unusual
they would go after so Mr. Nussarroa himself. Right. But so there's an element of opportunity
in a sense, that the opportunity has presented itself to decapitate the leadership of Hezbollah,
but they're not going to disappear. And at the end of the day, some form of buffer, larger
buffer and a reformat is going to have to take place.
That's right. And I don't think the intention here is to actually eliminate Hezbollah.
Asbala is a very different type of adversary than Hamas and Gaza is, and in this case, they
are indeed seeking to create a real buffer between the Northern Israeli border.
The bigger threat you pose to Israel's territorial ambitions, the bigger of a terrorist group
you are.
Okay?
That's it.
The standards are that and that only.
If you have successfully militarily defeated the Israeli military, the Israeli Occupy Force,
then you are even greater of a threat for regional stability and for, you know, it's
even worse than Hamas.
It's like you're big bad, so much worse.
Well, there is that, but also there is an opportunity for the United States and like-minded
countries to begin to work together, to begin to apply pressure on Iran to rein in Hezbollah
and particularly its nonstop rocket attacks on Israel, which is ultimately what Israel
wants to see in the very near term.
I'd also call your attention to a very important meeting that apparently has taken place in
Tehran itself, the Supreme National Security Council.
And I'm fairly certain that the discussion in that meeting was, what do we Iran do now,
as our most important strategic asset, is under attack.
Who elsewhere is a power broker?
And I'm thinking of Saudi, the UAE, Qatar, of course, has played a large role in relation
to the hostages in Gaza.
Who, the king of Jordan, is said to be beside himself with the depression, the way in which
this is deteriorating, but who has the ability to play a role?
Well, the countries that you mentioned certainly have a communication channel with the leadership
of Iran and can speak to the need to try and rein in Hezbollah to the Iranians.
I would also say that probably the Chinese do, and I would not be surprised if some attempts
to reach out to the Chinese to use their offices to speak with Iranian leadership as well.
And that's about the limit of it in terms of those with the most, I'd say, significant
interest and role or presence in Tehran.
So what about the election here in the United States?
How does either candidate manage to get through the next five weeks without making a political
faux pas?
Well what makes that question so challenging is that we know a significant number of Americans,
I would not say a majority, but a significant number.
Have to save the day. No, China is just kicking back, dude
They're just kicking back relaxing to the max and watching America destroy every fucking ounce of credibility
It had and the global stage. That's it also
They are very cold and very calculated in these matters
They will not intervene or interfere until it becomes an issue for like global trade
specifically oil, like they did when they put forth the Iran-Saudi Arabia peace agreement.
Also a lot of pressure to stand behind our long-time ally Israel.
Sir, I'm grateful to you. I wish you well. Thank you. Join us tonight.
And that's our reporting. Let me tell you. So we have the – what we are waiting for now,
Of course, there's some form of confirmation on whether or not Hassan Nasrallah has been
killed tonight in that massive Israel attack in Beirut.
And now we're hearing, of course, that other people in southern Beirut are being told
to evacuate, which might suggest that there is more activity to come.
Israel says it's in an attack mode, and it is ready for all aspects of that.
The news continues here on CNN, the lead is next, and because the news never stops, neither
do we.
This is it.
Anyway, I know his voice is hard to fucking pay attention to and listen to, I know Chad.
New York Times turning mass carnage in Lebanon into a fun email quiz.
Israel waged an intense air campaign against Hezbollah on Monday, striking more than
1,000 sites and killing more than 500 people.
It was the deadliest day in Lebanon since when?
Start the quiz by choosing your answer.
Thank you New York Times.
We are so eye worth fucking this is some Nazi shit dude.
Straight up brother.
Holy fuck.
Israel yearns for peace.
Israel has made peace and will make peace again.
Yet we face savage enemies who seek our annihilation and we must defend ourselves.
against these savage murderers. Our enemies seek not only to destroy us.
First tenure professor of fire for pro-Palestine speech is Jewish in case
anyone still thinks designism shit is about protecting Jews. Yep.
Mora Finkelstein was terminated by Muhlenberg College for an Instagram post.
Nice. Mora Finkelstein never hit her support for Palestinian liberation
during her nine years working as a professor of anthropology at Muhlenberg
College of Small Liberal Arts School in Allentown, Pennsylvania.
I've always had an ethical practice in making sure that I include Palestine in my teachings,
Finkelstein told me.
It was never outside the bounds of what I do.
For Finkelstein, who is Jewish, this was not always easy.
More than 30% of Muhlenberg's 2,200 students are Jewish.
Many of them vocal supporters of Israel.
Neither her longtime public support of Palestinians, however, nor the courses on Palestine
she taught in early years of the school prevented Finkelstein from earning tenure
in 2021.
the arduous tenure process, professors are supposed to enjoy lifetime job security in
a robust safeguard for academic freedom. The bar for dismissal from a tenured academic
position is by design meant to be extremely high, requiring justifiable causes. Precisely
the reason why there is like literally a litany of like psychopathic rabid white supremacist
tenured professors in institutes of higher learning because the tenure process is so
fucking complicated and so rigid once tenure is given. I mean, Dersh! Think about the Dersh!
Yeah, Nazi professors, Amy Wax is exactly who I was talking about. Amy Wax is a great
example of this, who literally fucking petitioned to bring Jared Taylor, to speak on campus,
Jared Taylor, like an open out and about American Nazi.
AAUP is getting involved to defend her.
The American Association of University Professors
has opened a case on the dismissal
of Professor Mora Finkelstein from Muhlenburg College
due to a student complaint regarding her extra mural
speech and conduct related to the war in Gaza.
The dismissal raises serious concerns
about academic freedom in Muhlenburg.
It also appears that Abbott did not follow
its own regulations regarding dismissal
followed established guidelines on academic due process, a hearing before faculty, body before
where the admin makes their case. Amy Wax recently, no, the reason why I'm talking about it is because
the tenured law professor famous for controversial comments often criticizes
the reason was suspended for the upcoming academic year. For years and years, the reason why I'm
talking about this is because they use this, they use this suspension as a counter to be like
Why are all these other people not getting suspended that are pro-Palestine?
That's the reason why Amy Wax is in the news currently.
Okay, she got a one-year suspension with half-pay set to begin during 2025-2026.
Wax will also lose her name chair position.
When Wax speaks at public events she will also be required to speak for
yourself alone and not as a university or pen carry law school faculty member.
opinion professors are like fucking killer cops dude but Amy wax is of course
well one she was not removed from her position that's important to understand and secondly
Amy wax has a incredibly long history of being an overt out and about white supremacists
Okay. So, like, there is, there are very few comparisons. Like, look, in a letter obtained
by a student newspaper, the Daily Pennsylvania Ruger also accused Wax of telling a black
student she had only become a double IB League student due to affirmative action. Theodore
Ruger, the former dean of Penn Law School, removed her from teaching any required courses
in 2018 after making comments on the academic performance and grade distributions of the
black students in her required first year courses. Wax's comments about race began to
draw criticism after she co-authored an op-ed published in the Philadelphia Enquirer in 2017.
In that, in a later interview that same year Wax said, I don't think I've ever seen a black
student graduate in the top quarter of the class and rarely, rarely in the top half.
She is like a straightforward out and about
about Nazi, okay. This is like if you've paid close attention to like campus culture worship.
You probably knew about this person already because she's always tried basically to fucking
have her tenure removed. I suspect to like become a podcast or something. I don't know.
Moody's downgraded Israel's credit rating again to be a one. I mean, yeah. Pop notch
downgrade leaves nation three steps above junk Israel sees cost of conflicts reaching 66 billion by
the end of 2025 hey guess what dude America will put the bill don't worry Moody's has been declared
anti-semitic for attacking the only Jewish economy in the world okay but like honestly
honestly like I can see that that's a tablet magazine headline in the making article by
tablet magazine is Moody's in the pocket of Hamas. If not, why is it attacking the only
Jewish economy in the world? I can totally see this be a fucking headline, dude. Like,
I'm not even, this is, oh my God. Tablet magazine, who recently wrote yesterday, the editor
in chief of tablet magazine wrote an article, the Jews must protect Eric Adams. The Jews
must defend Eric Adams in the midst of his ongoing investigation. Check out this at 140,
you're missing out on the new IDF animations. Oh God, oh, what are the, what are the new bloody
animations that they have to justify blowing up entire city blocks?
Above, acting as a shield. Here you can see one of the buildings in the heart of the Dakhia.
When entering and descending to the parking level, there is a storage facility for strategic
weapons. Hezbollah has stored these strategic weapons beneath civilian populations. The
way the missile are stored in these buildings allows them to be moved and launched with
outside of the buildings within minutes. This possesses a real and immediate threat.
Dakhia, Hezbollah, Hamas, with an arsenal of weapons.
And I am hearing, as you can see in the CGI, that the weapons are actually anti-semitic.
These are not normal bombs used by Hamas and Hezbollah.
These are weapons that specifically are heat-seeking weapons that target Jews, and Jews only.
The goal for these weapons is to destroy Israel.
Yeah, well they haven't completed or started the bombing campaign yet as of now, but it
will start very soon.
The proof that there is no missiles under the buildings can be launched in minutes
is the Hezbollah isn't firing off all of them right now before Israel strikes the alleged
stash. If the missiles are there and can be launched quickly, they would be in the air
right now. Yeah. That's the thing I don't understand. Like if there are missile silos
underneath these buildings, like why aren't they fucking using the anti-semitic missiles?
Like immediately Israel has all but communicated that they are going to blow those missiles
up so if they're fucking like why would you waste them I don't really understand it like
if I have a stash of basement anti-semite missiles okay anti-semitic missiles stashed in my basement
I find out that the only moral nation on the planet the Jewish nation okay is about to blow
my missiles up I have an hour I'm using the anti-semitism missiles like I'm not letting
them go to waste, right? Especially because obviously in this situation Khazbullah's only
goal is anti-Semitism. They seek to destroy our common civilization
and return all of us to a dark age of tyranny and terror.
When I spoke here last year, I said we faced the same timeless choice that Moses put
before the people of Israel thousands of years ago. As we were about to enter the Promised
Land Moses told us that our actions bro boo boo boo I don't care oh my god bro oh my fucking
god Moses in the Promised Land like get the fuck out of here. Anyway Nitya who's UNGA
speech one of the lowest points of Israeli propaganda says former prime minister is
The country is at war fighting for its life, but after the lies and slanders leveled at
Israel I decided to come and- Bro really had the audacity to fucking fire off missiles
into fucking Beirut and then go up there on that stage and be like Israel only seeks
peace and by that I mean pieces of dead bodies we seek the record straight.
What stood out?
Did they start it?
Was a pretty comprehensive speech from the Israeli Prime Minister to you?
Well clearly the defiance stood out and clearly singling out Iran and painting this picture
of either blessings or something far worse, a curse and holding up those maps.
In many ways this was sort of vintage Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
is where he actually feels comfortable, where he is speaking to an audience, where he feels
that he is a master orator, and he was delivering clearly his version and his belief. But it's
not the first time we've heard him single out Iran. I think any of us that were looking
to try to see if there was a nuance in there about this potential ceasefire between Israel
and Hezbollah on the northern border. I think his continued references to America and France
about how Hezbollah and Iran as well had been responsible for killing your citizens
was kind of getting specific on this was your initiative but examine this why don't you?
I mean look the big takeaway here has to be this is a prime minister who's not climbing down from
anything he has said who doubled down on everything that is said so far the demand for the hostages
back his position his view and the takeaway has to be at the moment in this moment of
of escalating tensions.
They've started bombing Beirut.
Dude, what the fuck is going on?
Why is it 250%?
Al-Dazir Arab is reporting that the bombing campaign
in Beirut, the second bombing campaign today,
has officially started.
The Israeli air strike in Lebanon is continuing
after the massive bombing campaign that happened.
Hassan, quick question, doesn't Lebanon have air defense?
No, it doesn't.
No, it does not.
And this is literally the reason why it does not
for the record, so that Israel can fucking bomb it
without any sort of fear.
OK?
The only defense Lebanon has is Hezbollah for the record.
That is the only defense that they have.
This is the case of the attack on one of the roads in the south of Beirut,
in the natural state of the point that is standing in it,
and through the lens of the camera, which is currently being connected to the point where the attack is taking place.
There was a shooting, and it was a shooting that was facing a point that was specifically targeted.
How does your English is covering it?
Earlier today, the largest we've seen, and just in the last few minutes,
There has been another strike, presumed to be an Israeli strike, on Dahye.
They have been, you're still seeing the embers and the fire glowing there right at the base
of that plume of smoke.
So this is the scene in Dahye, southern capital of Beirut.
As we speak, it is just 2139 GMT is after midnight local time in Beirut.
We wanted to show you that.
But keeping an eye on it, we don't yet have more information on what's happening on the
ground there, but we will try and gather that information as quickly as we can and bring
it to you.
For now, though, we go back to that speech, the Egyptian representative at the United
Nations.
So that they can resist on the territory of Gaza, the West Bank, and Jerusalem, despite
all attempts to expel these people.
This is a red line for us, which we will not allow to be traversed.
The estimation from today's attacks so far, the death toll so far I believe is at 700.
This is the second death toll from, wait what?
Like the total death toll is at 700.
Death toll in Israeli strikes on Beirut rises to 6.
number of people killed at Israel's bombing of Southern Beirut has risen to six with 91 wounded
Lebanon's health minister said the death toll is likely to rise significantly as the attack brought
six residential towers in down to the ground the Israeli estimation is 300
700 is the total number the total estimate over this
700 is the, yeah here it is, more than 700 since September 23rd until today, September 27th,
and that death toll is expected to skyrocket still.
What do you mean?
What lies?
Yeah, Hezbollah is our only military, we decided we, I'm from Israel, destroy it, but
it should also be believed to be fine because you don't normally have enemies leaven on,
nothing unless they surrender or get destroyed.
What lies?
Benjamin Ninnyaho claiming that he seeks peace is how he opened up this fucking speech
After he issued this speech was after he issued a fucking strike in Beirut that happened earlier today
Here are some videos from the airstrikes so far. This is not the actions of a nation that seeks peace
This is the actions of a nation that seeks war
Hey, it's on sorry your healthcare money was just used to scare me for five minutes and make me leave my computer computer for a bit
it. Yeah, these are de-escalatory first strikes, of course. Leibnz, Rome is precisely what is
happening here.
The attack that took place earlier on Friday saw at least six residential buildings being
completely leveled. So there is a huge presence of emergency crews at that location. Now,
the latest attack that we're hearing about, it's not clear where exactly in relation
to the earlier attack happened, but it begs the question, were there any emergency personnel
in the area? Were there any civilians still there in those buildings that the Israeli
army has targeted? Now, the areas within Dahir are densely populated. The neighborhood is
home to about 700,000 people. Over the past seven days, at least this is now would
be the sixth airstrike that Israel has carried out in this area alone.
Many people here believe that Israel is now launching a full-scale war on the Lebanese
people, not just Hezbollah, because these buildings are populated by civilians.
Israel's claim that they are targeting Hezbollah commanders, Hezbollah command headquarters.
weapons is being disputed and disregarded because people, civilians are living in these buildings
caught in between these strikes, the many residents have spoken to over the past few days in Dachy.
It is clear Israel does not distinguish between a member of Hezbollah and a Lebanese civilian.
They don't care who they hit is what I was told.
They are just in the way and they have no regard for human life.
They will attack continuously until they claim whatever kind of victory they think this is
going to achieve.
Now, I have to tell you, over the past hour, we've put an escalation, downtown Bay Road,
on this.
Wait, Nikes get, once again, our favorite 15-year-old Mormon chatter who always has
the worst possible opinion on every issue, so successfully and so consistently.
I don't know about the wanting land part maybe to use as a buffer zone, but even then it seems really politically rash
But what is kind of clear is both sides seem to be using the masses placements from bombs as tools of political pressure
These likely goals being Hezbollah for Gaza and Israel to dissuade Hezbollah
Yes, they do they want it. They want the land and
They will use security as a justification for it
That's it. They always have. There's never been a moment where Israel's like, no, we just want this land for no reason. We just want it because we like the land. They always say, oh, we need this land for security. We need to invade it for security. We need to wipe it out for security.
And then when the settlers come in, they have to fucking, you know, they have to protect the settlers. And obviously that is going to incur the wrath of the people that used to live on that land.
live on that land. So then the settlers are under attack. So we need to move further into
the territory. This is exactly what they did with the West bank. This is how they fucking
started the process to begin with is really south Lebanon settlement plans. Yeah. I mean
they, they already, yeah, they already posted it here. The south Lebanon settlement movement
future is really settlements in occupied Lebanon. These French political ideas end up occupying
the mainstream of government policy failing to deter this aggression with respect to
occupied Palestinian territory had allowed for this. Yup. And then they're like, oops.
How, how could this have happened? How could the right wingers,
how did the right wing, uh,
ultra national is like rabid, rabid freaks.
How did they take over the Israeli government? How could this have happened?
Then you'll get an assessment from the New York times. You know what I mean?
You get an assessment piece being right now with the red and white head
is the
you know explain in 2001. Yeah.
He how he uses the pretensive security go zones as a justification for the
enclosures. It's kind of funny. This is not a leaked video. This is from
TRT world. Okay. And not only that, but also
I like that we're back to square one. Once again, these are all the things that I
had to walk chatters through in the early month
of October when they were like what what do you mean like Israel has a right to defend
itself like what are you talking about I don't understand explaining me all this stuff across
the northern border is there was nothing in there that told us those escalating tensions
are going to be tamped down in any way in the short term Becky.
And let me bring in Ben Weederman who is in and Tyre in Lebanon and on his baller
Benjamin Netanyahu said, and I quote,
enough is enough.
We won't rest until our citizens can return safely
to their homes, echoing what we've heard
from the defense minister earlier today
and a state of the Israeli government,
or certainly the prime minister at this point.
And what did you make of what you heard?
Becky, if you take into account what you just said
and the fact that I don't think I heard
the word ceasefire once in that speech,
that clearly Israel is set on its current air campaign
and perhaps a ground incursion to try to push Hezbollah back.
Now, for instance, he did say that Hezbollah has a missile
in every kitchen and a rocket in every garage.
That sort of sends a rather alarming message to people
here because the fact of the matter is in south Lebanon,
there is not a missile in every kitchen and a rocket
in every garage.
But this seems to indicate that Israel considers every house, every kitchen, every garage to
be a legitimate target.
But broadly speaking, this was classic Netanyahu in which he divides the world into black and
white, good and evil.
He talks about the curse.
And of course, we're in Lebanon, which is part of that curse.
I think people would scratch their heads a bit, because the fact of the matter
is the Middle East is an area of grays.
There's no black and white certainly take into consideration that Israel has occupied
the West Bank, East Jerusalem, the Golan Heights and essentially occupied Gaza, despite the
fact that settlers pulled out in 2005.
That is an open wound in the region that Israel has not really done much to treat.
There was a peace process at one point, but that didn't go anywhere.
And certainly the rhetoric that comes out of Israel from some of the extremists sends
a very dark message to the region that this is not necessarily a question of good and
evil.
That there are extremists on both sides of the conflict.
And those extremists on both sides are really the ones who are driving this conflict forward.
And what we're seeing increasingly is that the United States, under the current administration
in this election season in the United States has really just put the Middle East on a back
burner, throwing lots of rhetoric and encouraging words about diplomacy and peace in the Middle
East and whatnot.
But the fact of the matter is very little is actually being done about it.
The U.S. and France put forward what they called was a ceasefire proposal.
But it doesn't seem to be going anywhere.
every day in Gaza in Lebanon more people are dying more people are being
killed Becky. Gosh, let me bring you in here before I also ask for some some
analysis from from Gideon and on the issue of Gaza very specifically he
He said there is no substitute for total victory in Gaza.
He said, we do not seek to resettle Gaza.
We seek to de-radicalize it.
We're focused on mapping up the remaining.
That right there.
I guess it's not too much of a fucking attitude shift here, but seeing my fucking goat prominently
displayed in a conversation about Israel on CNN you know what they talking about you rewind
like one what the fuck Hassan's channel Hassan Abbey channel globally on twitch as of august
2024 yeah it's the it's it there they're streaming it on NBC on TV I guess yeah this is the NBC
broadcast that we watched already, that we reacted to?
The elements of Hamas and let them go, he said of the hostages, those who are alive
must be returned alive and the remains of those who are dead must be returned.
There is no substitute and I repeat this for total victory in Gaza.
So we're just sort of describing some of what, or reliving as it were, some of what
a very defiant Benjamin Netanyahu has just said at the UN in New York.
On the issue of Gaza, what do you take out of what you've just heard?
Listen, Netanyahu is living in a world of delusion.
There is no total victory in Gaza, and there is a deal on the table.
And this is what the world needs to understand.
This is what the Americans need to know.
They know it.
They've seen the deal.
Hamas has agreed to a three-week deal during which time the war would end, Israel would
evacuate Gaza, there would be an agreed upon release to Palestinian prisoners, and Hamas
will return all of the hostages.
This is not only a deal on the ceasefire, but Hamas has also agreed that they are supporting
the establishment of a civilian, technocratic, professional government in Gaza, of which
they will not have a part of.
are willing for this government to be empowered because they know that if they rule Gaza there
won't be a single dollar of international aid going into rebuild Gaza and Gaza is destroyed.
There's nothing left in Gaza. Two million homeless people, disease, devastation, no sanitation,
no freshwater, no schools, no universities, nothing. Gaza needs to be rebuilt and it needs
a responsible Palestinian government. Remember this seems if this spells is like a like a tiny
bit change of attitude in the right direction, understand that this is the, the basically
the international correspondent, like until Jake Tapper has fucking Gideon Levy and this
guy on or Wolf Blitzer has Gideon Levy and this guy on, you're not, you know, it's
not, I mean, it's better.
It's better than before, but once again, it's like, this is far from this, like
Christian Amanpour, right? Like she always has, like the most acceptable anti-Israel
position you can arrive at. It's not seen as international, but like it's the early hours
of the day usually.
I'm going to do it. Now, we ask to mass, if they're talking about turning over internal
security and their weapons to the new civilian professional technocratic government, and
they said yes. But what I say to the Americans, to the Israelis, to everyone is don't
listen to me. This is on the table. I have it in writing. I have voice messages from
my mom saying it. The officials need to check it. And President Biden needs to
understand in his final months in office that his legacy is either going to be the
war in Gaza or ending the war in Gaza. And we all know that the day that the
war in Gaza ends, the war in Lebanon ends, and we need to get into the
diplomatic path. There is no solution to this conflict without the freedom of
Palestine, the establishment of an independent Palestinian state next to Israel, the realization
of the two-state solution, this is the way forward, and this is the way to defeat extremists,
not through weapons, not through wars, not through killing.
Gideon, your thoughts.
It was so embarrassing, Becky, embarrassing and pathetic, because Netanyahu is a good
speaker, no doubt about this, a very impressive one.
But today I think he reached one of the lowest point of Israeli propaganda.
To speak about blessing in the Middle East, after killing over 40,000 people in Gaza and
distracting Gaza, and to bring Gaza to a stage in which it's nothing but the humanitarian
catastrophe and to speak about blessing, by the time that you stand on the stage
on the podium of the U.A. and your army is coming.
Netanyahu used the UN assembly as a tactic?
Yeah, no shit.
I'm seeing reports like these circulating Israeli media.
It seems like Netanyahu attended the UN General Assembly was a part of the deception.
Israeli source Netanyahu's speech at UN meant to broadcast business as usual, despite
Beirut operation being approved to advance.
Yeah, this is precisely what he did.
It's like, that was the whole point, yes.
That is precisely what the point was.
And it's also a flex, by the way, okay?
It is simply a flex that is all this is.
It is to say like, I will fucking strike this unjustifiable attack on a sovereign nation's
capital from the heart of American democracy at the UN General Assembly, okay?
And you can't do a goddamn thing about it.
They're all acting like Hamas had nothing to do with it though.
dude please tell me you don't fucking you're not gonna make the argument that
Hamas is in Beirut now no dude the updated talking points are it's
Hezbollah not Hamas we've moved on Israel is already doing his genocide it's on
autopilot in Gaza it's now Hamas unless you're trying to give me a fucking
top of the hour ad break debate right now okay which double parters are banned
and in the broadcast you will be getting banned if that is your attempt here okay because at
the top of the hour there's a through manabra if you no longer want to see those ads all
you need to do is subscribe which you can do for $4 or for fruit which prime by connecting
Amazon Prime account to your Twitch account where you get one free Prime subscription
a month user and a favorite broadcast there Hassan Abi okay here's the through manabra
now. If there's any risk that Israel's ex escalation with Lebanon means that Gaza
ceasefire won't be able to stop the conflict. It won't put with 11 people
and their needs enter the conversation. There is no
care or consideration for the Lebanese people. They're just in the way.
They happen to be under the bombs that's in you and to kill
both in Lebanon and in Gaza. And you speak about blessing.
You know, he spoke about their radicalizing Gaza and the militarizing
Gaza. What about the radicalization of Israel? Netanyahu is today hostage of the most radical
fascist partners in his coalition. What about the radicalizing Israel?
This kind of anti-Semitism being in full display at CNN of all places. Oh, I'd never see the
day man how anti-Semitic of you Gideon you've done did it again as you guys know Gideon Levy
famous famous name for a Christian man or worse than a Christian a Muslim man the the classic
Arab Muslim Gideon Levy doing the classic Arab Muslim anti-Semitism that he's known for it seems
Things like CNN headquarters are also Hamas now.
In the last year speaks only in one language, the language of force, the language of brutality,
many times the language of barbarism.
Where is the ceasefire?
You don't speak about the ceasefire at all.
You don't mention it once.
How are you going to finish those two very cruel wars without even mentioning their
ceasefire?
What one more sentence I was really interested. Yeah, go on go on get in and then the decoration of the of the hostages
Really a decoration
He could have released those hostages one year ago ten months ago eight months ago most of them
He wasn't ready for this now to stand in the UN and to use them as
as a slogan, as a decoration for his speech,
ask the families what they think about him.
Ask experts who know that we missed so many opportunities to release them.
So really, for many months, over years, I was accused as a bibis,
as a supporter of Netanyahu, which is not exactly the case,
but that's not important now.
But today I really felt embarrassed.
This was the lowest propaganda, the cheapest propaganda, which doesn't serve Israel, I mean.
To the corruption scandal surrounding New York City's Mayor Eric Adams, he's appearing
court to face federal charges, and our senior investigative correspondent Eric Katertursky
is at the courthouse for us.
Good morning, Erin.
Good morning to you, Michael.
Mayor Adams is due to turn himself in here at noon after federal prosecutors accused
him of engaging in a long-running conspiracy to take bribes.
This morning, Eric Adams defiant after he became the first sitting mayor of New York
to be charged with crimes.
There's no corruption.
This is not a real case.
We're going to see everybody in court.
The five-count indictment tells a fulsome story of alleged bribery, fraud and cover-ups.
The mayor is accused of taking more than $100,000 in graft, including stays in these
high-end hotel suites and business-class travel in exchange for using his influence
to help Turkey.
These are bright red lines, and realize that the mayor crossed them again and again for
years.
The indictment quotes a message from a Turkish businessman to someone working for Adams.
I think I can raise money for your campaign off the record.
Max 100K.
The staffer responded, 100K, do you have a chance to transfer that here?
We can't do it while Eric is in Turkey.
And when the staffer asked Adams whether to move forward, the indictment says Adams
directed the staffer to pursue the illegal scheme.
Mayors defense providing other messages including this one from Adams telling a staff member we guys we are just lovers, okay
stop
Eric Adams is and I have no other words to explain his position in my life a sexual dynamo
okay
That's simply what it is
And I'm sorry
If you got a hot piece of ass like that, you're not going to fucking, you're going to do whatever you can to maintain it.
And sometimes that means giving him bribes, okay? But these are not bribes.
These are not bribes that I gave him for, you know, whatever, whatever kind of favor is the New York state or the New York mayor's office could give me back.
It was so that we could keep having sex, okay?
Can't take any money from people who are not U.S. citizens.
Prosecutors alleged Turkish official came to Adams in 2021 telling him that it was his
turn to help.
Turkey was about to open a new consulate on Manhattan's east side and wanted Adams
to rush the fire department's safety inspection.
Despite concerns, the building was not safe to occupy.
A fire chief complied, the indictment says, fearing he and others would lose their
jobs if they crossed Adams.
They got out of the way and let the building open.
the Turkish official got what he wanted.
For weeks, several members of the Adams...
Okay.
First of all, it takes a long time
to do fire safety inspections.
Who cares about fire safety inspections anyway?
I'm just saying, like, it's not...
Is it really all that big of a deal
to do fire safety inspections?
I mean, come on, what is this communist China?
Who cares?
I hate the nanny state.
It is unacceptable what these guys were demanding, you know?
This administration had been subject to federal scrutiny with some stepping down.
Now Adams is facing calls from fellow Democrats to do the same.
Frankly, under this constant stream of scandal, I do not know if the city will be able to even name replacements for all of these resignations and vacancies at this point.
Adams insists he's staying put.
When Adam surrenders here, George, he will be the first sitting mayor of New York to
set foot in a courthouse as a criminal defendant.
Federal prosecutors have pledged to keep digging and promised to hold more people accountable.
Yeah, test-giddy says he charges.
Okay, thanks very much.
Breaking news now.
New York City's Mayor Eric Adams is speaking now after pleading not guilty to accepting
bryge and illegal campaign contributions is giving remarks outside that courthouse let's
listen but the spectacle of this so exciting to them that they wanted to bring another
one of these cases this case isn't even a real case i didn't realize loving turkey was
illegal okay i'm sorry it seems kind of crazy that they've officially made it illegal
to love Turkey the nation. Very fucked up. Sad state of affairs. This is the airline
upgrade corruption case. The third thing we said is that we demand that they bring
exculpatory information in the discovery to court on Wednesday. As you know from looking
at the indictment and from what happened in court, there are no emails, text messages
Is there any corroboration whatsoever that the mayor knew about anything having to do
with these campaign donations?
The entire body of evidence is one staffer.
I think the funniest argument to make in this situation is that he did not have knowledge
over the law because like the text messages very clearly show that he did know it was
illegal and try to take like the shittiest the absolute shittiest measures against it
to basically hide his fucking footsteps
like barely but he still did he still tried not that it fucking matters obviously the the
like just because you don't know something is illegal doesn't mean that you know you get
away with it. But in this circumstance, it absolutely doesn't even matter because there's
plenty of evidence to prove that he had full blown knowledge of the illegality,
including but not limited to the attempts of hiding these actions.
One staffer that says there was a conversation. What you have not learned is that that staffer
has lied. And the government is in possession of that lie. When that staffer was first interviewed,
that staffer said that Mayor Adams knew nothing about this. He was not involved in this and
that he is innocent. They have that information. They have not turned that over to us. They
have not turned that over to you. And so it sort of does not surprise us that they
did not answer any questions at that press conference. They're a little press conference
the other day. They have no answer for any of these questions. And they didn't
want to stick around from questions either. Questions like, why are they doing
this? Why are they targeting him? The questions you all started to ask as they
were leaving. They normally answer questions. They didn't want to stay for
questions in this case. And they left and they made this assertion of this.
They implied that somehow he's disappointing people or that people
ought to be disappointed in him. It's not him doing this. It's the
the government that everybody should be disappointed in bringing this case against
the sitting mayor. I don't have anything further today. Um, and thank you all.
If hope to call the need to resign, will you just heard from the attorney
for Eric Adams calling this not a real, his biggest crime is that he didn't
do this with Israel. Honestly, if he did everything would be above board.
As a matter of fact, he probably did do this with Israel, too. It's not
even in the news.
Okay, so referring to charges brought against a New York City mayor for alleged bribery
and other related charges, his attorney is calling this the airline upgrade corruption
case implying that the allegations are false and that the case is being brought for reasons
unknown.
I want to talk a little bit more about this case coming up.
We will hear more from the mayor and those reporting on this case.
We're going to turn now to the presidential race where the candidates have been
attacking each other's policies on border security and Ukraine.
And today, Vice President Kamala Harris will be in Arizona, where the plan is to visit
the U.S.-Mexico border, something she has not done in more than three years.
Ed O'Keefe is at the border himself.
He's in the town of Douglas, Arizona.
Ed, good morning.
Tony, good to see you.
Early in the Biden administration, Vice President Harris was put in charge of addressing the
root causes of immigration from Central America, not dealing with border security
as Republican critics claim. As you said, this is just her second visit to the border
as Vice President, and the goal is to cut into former President Donald Trump's edge
on border security and immigration.
Great.
The day before her trip, former President Donald Trump condemned Vice President Kamala Harris
for her visit to the U.S.-Mexico border, and blamed her for millions of illegal
border crossings.
She keeps talking about how she supposedly wants to fix the border. We would merely
ask why didn't she do it four years ago.
But the Harris campaign is now leaning in, releasing this new ad set to air in Arizona
and other battleground states.
We need a leader with a real plan to fix the border.
She plans to go after Trump today for his pardon blocking a bipartisan border security
and immigration bill earlier this year.
Donald Trump got word of the bill, realized it was going to fix the problem he wanted
to run on and told him to kill the bill.
While their disagreements over the border aren't new, there's fresh differences between
them over the war in Ukraine.
At the White House Thursday, Harris met with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and
vowed continued support in his fight against Russia.
My support for the people of Ukraine is unwavering.
Earlier in the week, Trump lashed out at Zelensky.
We continue to give billions of dollars to a man who refuses to...
They are not proposals for peace.
Instead, they are proposals for surrender.
And on Thursday, he hit back.
It's not a surrender.
What my strategy is to save lives.
Back in New York, former President Trump is set to meet with President Zelensky at Trump
Tower before heading off to a campaign event in Michigan.
The vice president is set to be here this afternoon.
She will meet with Customs and Border Patrol officials, get a tour, and then speak
out on why it is she supports that bipartisan border bill that was scuttled earlier
this year.
All right, thank you very much.
Well, thank you very much.
It's an honor to have the president with us.
Zelensky is so fucking cocked.
He just has to sit there and be like, yes, Mr. President, you are right.
We must do whatever you think is best.
A senior Harris campaign officials gave Gutierrez and Kelly O.
that Kamala Harris tonight will propose tightening asylum restrictions even further than Biden has.
That is in keeping with the significant and ongoing shift by Democrats on border policy.
Pog! Biden told Confidavis in New York this week that he was livid at Netanyahu and did not
believe the Israeli leader wanted to reach peace. He was frustrated with how often Netanyahu had
humiliated Biden, Blinken and the president himself. Okay, then fucking kill yourself
because that's the only thing you can do to keep this room happening to you besides
cutting off weapons and you're never doing that. Every article that is written about how fucking
angry Biden is about how big of a meanie-bobini Benjamin Nenyeahu is is so funny because it's like
wow I can't believe that fucking happened dude what no Biden is angry that Benjamin Nenyeahu did
exactly what he's been doing since day one especially when every single time he does it
you keep giving him more weapons for some weird reason?
Well, I for one would like to be the first to say,
I'm shocked.
I'm disappointed too.
Everything, you notice that everything that's happening
is getting increasingly worse.
Straight up, Kamala Harris signaling that she will be even more right-wing
and tighten the restrictions even further on immigration
to respond to calls from like the most reactionary white nativist people who are
trying to do pogroms. You get to you get to watch something happen in real time,
something that I talk about regularly, but it often never happens in real time.
Remember when I told you like, oh, like the hypothetical scenario where Republicans say we
need to kill like, you know, 70% of all migrants living on US soil and the Democrats will say,
oh no let's kill 30% and then people will make the harm reduction argument. It's a really interesting
situation because you're now like openly watching it happen in real time like the change of discourse
and the change of attitude and it's very cool to watch all of these like liberals who are supposedly
progressive who talked about like in this house we care about immigrants and black lives matter
basically become Republicans of 2020. Such a doomer take. Yeah, dude, I'm such a doomer
for this fucking take. You know, sorry that I'm not going to fucking sit here and tell
you a lullaby. Can you tell us about that? Well, we saw at least a couple of barraids
with tens of rockets being launched towards Israel. And of course, this is just in the
past few hours but since then there have been no other strikes. It's understood that currently
the organization or the group is in a situation where it's kind of weighing options, trying
to bring together its structure. The hit was probably, regardless of what's the result
of this hit, but it was massive in a way that the whole group is already concentrating,
focusing on how to just get across it, to just jump over its scale, try to bring together
back its own power. I mean, at the end, this is a control center. It's a command center,
regardless. Now, we don't have any walls from Hezbollah in this. Hezbollah has been silent
for the past hours. At least what I understood from some conversations that the head of the
executive branch of the party, S. H. M. Safideen is safe. Now, with respect to S. Hassan Asrallah,
there's no word because, of course, his fate is part of, it has a security situation and such a
thing, whether he is alive or not, this is something that the leadership would want to
announce by itself, or he himself would, I mean, if he's alive to announce it. This is
something else but for now there is a gap in communication between the group and its supporters
and of course the wider Lebanese this is another one also so we're just talking about series of
attacks series of airstrikes that are not finishing from one moment to another just hearing
from the towns and villages and even the entrance of Tyre as I've just said.
Ali, can I jump in for a second, since this is happening now.
Ali, just a second, since this is happening now,
and you are hearing the sound,
and you can tell that there are targets,
places being struck in the not too far behind you.
You have covered the cross-border shelling,
and you have covered this part of Lebanon for almost a year.
What kind of places? You have been to the immediate aftermath of these strikes multiple times.
Can you describe what that's like? What kind of places Israel strikes and what you have found when you have then gone to those places?
Well, at least I can give an example of the massacre that was committed in Nabatae just a few weeks ago when we went to a factory, a metal factory that was hit.
that was hit, and 10 people were killed, children, women.
The issue is that the Israelis are announcing certain objectives, and when we go to the ground
there, and most, I can't say every time, but several occasions we see something else
on the ground.
This is the issue.
And this is just reflecting the indiscriminate attacks and shelling on the airstrikes or,
You know, the attacks that are being carried out by Israel aren't any—they say they are
precise, but on many occasions they do not seem to be precise.
We just saw what happened in Dahi a few days ago, when they hit a couple of buildings.
And till the moment, there are even some people missing, more than 50 people killed.
And today's attack in Dahi also just erased a whole block.
And there's no yet final say on the number of people killed, how many civilians you can
just refer to the number of people killed during the past days that was announced by the, another
strike now was announced by the Ministry of Health, another one also.
So the fact is that we're just witnessing a series of strikes, a series of hits.
Not only in Tahrir, Tahrir is just one of these cities that is witnessing this Israeli
war.
It's a war.
I mean, if there is any other war to describe what's happening, it's a war.
in all-out war that Israel has started, not today, but a few days ago.
But today is kind of the accumulation of the announcement of war.
And we are seeing this, whether in Bahia, whether in Tahrir, whether in Nabataia,
whether in Baal-Bakht or the Beqaq Valley.
And so I'm not sure what Israel now is anticipating.
Of course, everyone is waiting to see how Hezbollah is going to react to this
and whether Hezbollah is going to respond to this.
But I think that Hezbollah has no other option but to respond.
This is at least what we understand from what they've been saying
over the past days, over the past months.
This was a front that was linked to the war in Gaza.
And Hezbollah said this is a support front.
And you remember when we started covering this war,
it was kind of limited to around four or five kilometers on both sides.
You could tell what motherfucker is a Lebanese reporter on whichever side of the conflict they're on
by the fact that you hear like secondary exposures this shit he's just like not even phased by it
and then it's starting day after day objective started changing and Israel now is putting a main
objective which is clear destroying Hezbollah. Yeah Ali look thank you very much for walking
us through that. It's past 1 a.m. I believe where you are. You're in southern Lebanon
entire. We heard very clearly multiple strikes, the impact and the detonation of what must
be Israeli strikes behind you. Thanks. You and your team stay safe and we will continue
to come to you. Now let's take a closer look at the location of Israel's latest attacks
on southern Beirut. Dahye is a densely populated suburb in the south of the city
home to about 700,000 people. The neighborhood was largely destroyed by the Israeli military
during the 2006 war in Lebanon. The suburb of Dahye has been hit by Israeli air strikes
five times just this week. The Israeli army has killed at least two Hezbollah commanders
in its strikes. Dozens of civilians have also been killed in these attacks.
Officer Oliver Marsden is in Beirut for us. What's the latest, Oliver?
Good evening. So, there have been multiple strikes here on the Dahye, the southern
suburb of Beirut in the capital of Lebanon. That started this evening around 6pm with
this massive airstrike, multiple bunker-busting missiles fired at this densely populated
residential area in the south of Beirut. Now the Israeli army, the Israeli military
are saying that they were targeting the central command center of Hezbollah, but
there has been no official word from Hezbollah and we have no way of independently verifying
this and the Israeli military has provided no proof of this. But what we do know
is that this is a very densely populated area.
There are civilians.
And I actually had one person who I spoke to on the phone
after the strike who was in a complete state of panic.
And he was telling me he grabbed his papers, his passports.
He lived just a few buildings down from the strike site.
And he ran out into the street.
And he was trying to find his sister.
Desperately trying to find the sister.
He couldn't find her.
Eventually, he did find her.
But she'd been hit by some metal.
And luckily, she survived.
And now they are struggling.
Like many residents of Dahye to find somewhere to stay outside of that neighborhood.
And it's a very tense situation here in Beirut right now.
So as far as you know, again, we said this is a massive suburb, 700,000 people,
or many people leaving Dahye at the moment in the middle of the night.
Many people are leaving. They're not just leaving Dahye,
they're leaving the area of Leilaki and Haddaq, again,
southern neighborhoods around the Dahye.
And they're leaving, but they're coming to hotels
which have already been completely filled up
by at least like 90,000 displaced residents from the South.
These hotels are full.
I've actually witnessed people coming from the D'Ahi'i
to hotels here in downtown Beirut and being turned away.
I've heard reports that there are people lining up
their cars along the seafront, along the Corniche,
hoping to just sleep there tonight
because there's nowhere to go
after these wave, after wave, after wave of strikes by the Israeli military across Lebanon
just over the last week.
So it's a very confusing, a very tense time, and I think it goes to show that Israel has
decided to very much back away from the negotiating table, and this 21-day ceasefire that many
people here in Lebanon were hoping for is looking very, very unlikely.
Oliver, I don't know if there's a good or adequate answer to this at this point,
But what, I think for our viewers it's important to understand what would be a reasonable expectation
as to how Hezbollah is going to communicate, because there's an open question on whether
or not Hassan Nasrallah was directly targeted.
It appears that he was the leader of Hezbollah.
But the more important open question is whether or not he has been killed.
What when, I know we don't have a timeframe, but what would be the typical way for Hezbollah
to communicate on something as big as this.
Usually when there is a strike of this magnitude and an event like this, we would often hear
I would say within 24 hours from the Hezbollah media department, they often put out statements.
As you say, there's really no way of knowing right now this is an unprecedented attack.
Nothing has been this large in Beirut since the 2006 war, apart from the non-nuclear
explosion in the port. But this is an attack on a different scale on a very
densely populated civilian area in the south of Beirut multiple airstrikes
tonight. So in terms of communication there's very little I can say right now
there's very little we know. I'm sure we will be hearing something in the next
24 hours and many people in Lebanon will be listening very closely for that.
Would you say that the mood in Beirut and beyond has changed since that
strike? Of course. And as I said, I've seen people arriving here into downtown Beirut,
just in the center of Beirut, looking... One thing I want to repeat to people is that all of the
fucking Israel defenders on the timeline were talking about how fantastic this operation was,
and how brilliant and technical it was when they were talking about the page.
And they kept repeating like, uh, excuse me, what do you expect them to do? Like,
Like you're calling that an act of terror, but like it was so targeted and so precise.
Like what?
What if they bombed it like it's so much better than carpet bombing Beirut, right?
And now they have carpet bombed Beirut.
So where are all those people who said, oh, well, that would be unconscionable?
As expected, they're literally defending the carpet bombing of Beirut.
So never have a conversation with these fucking idiots about like, what their morality is.
Okay.
They don't care.
They don't care.
They just want to defend Israel.
That's all it is.
Please stop.
Like these fucking, shut the fuck up.
God damn federal agent ass motherfuckers.
Wallahi.
They will send the suicide bombers of the Zionist soon.
You're just writing this in the chat before you get fucking banned so you can screenshot
and post about how fucking anti-semitic this community is. Like get the fuck out of here,
goddamn baboon dude. Holy shit, fucking dumbass freak dude. How? Why?
But at this point you should understand that like this shit's not gonna work, okay?
Motherfuckers have been calling me a goddamn terrorist since day one. You think that
shit matters. No, most people at least, at least in positions of power, most people are
not as brainbroken as like the hyper online, the hyper online diphthins, broasted suicide
problems, exactly. Like for so many, for so many of these people, they literally think,
they literally think like, no, no, you don't understand, like members of the media will
also be just as angry as we are that like he said cracker. Okay, because that's all you
know. That's all you've seen from your hyper specific, extremely niche, hyper online group
that keeps telling you like no, everyone is just as mad as you are about this. Like nobody
gives a fuck dude, shut up. Unless you are a rabid ultra Zionist of some sort. Assuming
that I, in any way, shape or form, allow like, anti-Semezas to continue in this fucking chat
is ridiculous.
It's something that I have fought against for years and years and still continue to do
so, okay?
Shut the fuck up, worry about your own community, where you got like actual fucking literal
Nazis in there.
So it was the same virtue signaling shit from right wingers, they were so annoying.
I know you can't see it, but it's on the center of all our screens, and we have
We've just seen a flash of light on this cityscape of Dahye, the suburb of Beirut that
we've been watching live for quite a while now.
So as a reminder, the last few hours has seen the following sequence of events.
A massive strike on what Israel says is a Hezbollah command and control center in Dahye.
Again, Dahye is not a military camp.
It is considered a Hezbollah stronghold, but it's not a military camp.
It's a suburb of a capital city.
700,000 people live there.
Six to seven buildings.
We understand from our correspondent came down as a result of that strike.
There is an untold number of civilians in those buildings when they came down.
We do not know yet what the real death toll from that strike was.
That was a couple hours ago.
Then we saw in the last 90 minutes.
They needed a bid dishonestly to ignore that North Syrians and Lebanese are celebrating
tonight.
Everyone has designed this bid.
It's too easy.
Oh, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I didn't fucking factor enough of the people that don't like Hezbollah in fucking
Syria and how they factored into the equation. Instead, I'm talking about hundreds of fucking
people that are currently living under rubble as Israel is currently still continuously bombing
Dahia. Wow, dude, I can't believe I didn't bring that shit up. Everyone is a Zionist. No, like,
shut the fuck up. How do you, bro, you have nothing. You have nothing. You have no counter.
You're like, look away from the explosion that you're watching that happened in real time.
And and think about this year
All my life I was born and I don't do a fuck who's celebrating asshole hundreds of civilians are under fucking rubble right now
My tax pay my tax dollars paid for it
dumbass
I think that I'm sorry. I'm gonna cover the fucking human toll
not only because of the
Gaza year that we've just experienced the brutality and the savagery of that
Not only because of the total fracturing and threshing of international law and human rights
protections and UN resolutions by Israel and completely that whole post World War two order
that the winning powers in World War two Western states created to make a safe world.
It's so easy.
It's so easy.
It's just fucking balls on a terrace and move on, brother.
And everyone in their vicinity gets fucking lasered in the orbit or just collateral
damage. That's it. That's it. That's what the designation of terrorism is for. Okay. That's
the exclusive purpose of it. 300 plus civilians dead under the rubble. No way of fucking, you
know, solving that problem. And people are just like, but think about all the people
that are celebrating like, I don't give a fuck. Fuck those people. Okay. Those are
going to suck my dick. All right. You only bring that up if you want to fucking
make an alternative like if you want to make a counter to why it is totally
justifiable that fucking they're bombing that here right now Lebanese are
convinced they killed Nasrallah nothing confirmed right now they don't
understand the complicated nature of the shit is so fucking annoying it's like
the conversation you have with your dad dude wasn't your dad like oh well
they're just bombing his bullet they're just bombing his bullet and then they
fucking bombed his goddamn comp not compound but like his farm didn't they
like people forget the capacity of others in engaging in like a
verse array of different opinions okay it's silly to say that like everyone
universally loves his Bola in Lebanon they don't okay but just like it's also
fucking silly people don't understand the Lebanese Christians which I am one of
them are nationalists yeah Lebanese Christians especially living in
Diaspora have a very different approach where they just basically think like well let Israel deal with the fucking she has some of them
Do not caprice on poppy
But some of them just basically look at the situation as like well those fucking Shia barbarians are the reason why Israel was blowing us up
We are actually a French nation
You know some
Excuse me, we're a French country. Okay
Really fucked up that there is real is like being forced to fucking come and bomb our
territories because you know because of those barbaric fucking shias in the
southern regions. There's a conversation that needs to be had one day on stream. I
have argued with you about Iran, Hezbollah, and their bullshit for
literal years. Yeah, we hate them, but you will never ever find a group of
Middle Easterners celebrating. Dude, no one there likes the Israeli
occupation of Colonial genocide, no matter who is directed against the
Middle East. Exactly. That's why it's so fucking stupid when people are
like, no, you will always be able to find like a group of psychos. Okay. You will. You'll
always find a group of psychos anywhere you go. But ultimately, they are always in the
minority. Okay. No one in the fucking Middle East is like, Oh hell yeah, I love Israel
blowing up fucking civilians, because they all know, they all know that they might
be tomorrow in the crosshairs of that same fucking bombing campaign. You know, it's
so stupid. Except for people in Israel. People in Israel will always celebrate bombing campaigns
because they know like they have the Iron Dome in America back in their shit up.
Capabilities we don't know their condition. How badly have they been hit? They've obviously taken
ahead but how bad that is we don't know. Well that's if I can jump in that's exactly what I was
going to say. I have no idea what I'm watching right now. Yes I understand what's on screen.
We're watching Dahiyeh, we're watching the southern suburb of Beirut, where hundreds of thousands of people live.
We know that Hezbollah is entrenched in that neighborhood.
Yes, of course, we know all that.
And we know the strikes that we have just seen in the last few minutes.
And they were very significant.
And there is no way of telling at this very early hour what the human cost of those strikes would be.
And what the death toll will be.
that's not what I mean. And the question I'm putting to you is, what's going on, you know?
It's happening in the moment. We just don't know where this is taking us.
Well, what I just mentioned is kind of a preface to the main point, which is that we're
also, everyone will sing a different tune if Israel invades Lebanon.
There might be some in Lebanon that will say oh it's Hezbollah's fault that Israel is invading Lebanon to begin with
But there will be plenty of others who remember once again a time when Israel invaded Lebanon and Hezbollah was the only fucking line of defense
That's why they're the big bad here, okay? Not because of what they've done in fucking Syria
You think Israel gives a shit about Hezbollah's actions in Syria?
like oh man the Syrian population is being slaughtered yeah that's definitely
something Israel cares about bro they fucking bomb Damascus like weekly what
are you talking about they don't care they don't care about anything you know
at the end of the day you literally look to who the big bad is in the region
if you're a Middle Eastern person and you recognize that Israel which is the
weapon of the United States of America and its imperialist endeavors in the region.
You know what it looks like when America comes knocking on your fucking door.
You know how bad and devastating that shit is.
You know when Israel does that shit too.
It doesn't fucking matter.
You're going to look to anyone who is going to fight back against that.
It's the same principle behind like when a country is invaded by Russia like Ukraine,
okay, and the very same Ukrainians that used to fight back against like I don't
Nazi as a battalion fucking football hooligan paramilitary guys are now going to fucking join up the ranks alongside them
To fight back against the Russian invasion
Now there's a much greater enemy in that situation
And every single time you're bombed you radicalize that existing population anyway
What is this? This should really help explain how the Lebanese are feeling Lebanese pockets in English explaining how they will get killed
Asking us to help showing us death and destruction. No one did fucking shit
So have zero expectations that anybody's coming to save us, bro
We're gonna fucking die alone
And we're gonna live stream or do you guys gonna get another live stream another
Another live stream the genocide on your phones
and it's only gonna cost you a few tax dollars and
Yeah, that's it
so
It might seem crazy, but like
We might die. We might die, bro.
It might. Less likely to die than people in the south. But so we might die.
In this fucking conflict, just sitting here doing our thing, they might decide to blow up the fucking
shit I can't get out of my way. We'll just fucking die. Driving on a bridge.
Fucking blow it up. Go to the hospital. Blow it up. Then they'll say that we were Hezbollah agents and we were hiding weapons or whatever, you know, they'll come up with any excuse.
The hospital had weapons. The school was on top of a weapons cache.
Cash
Yeah
Thank you to our patrons if you want to support us. We're an independent YouTube channel
Living through a war right now. So we appreciate your support
Habura's a yura and Joseph a welcome to the family to everyone in the south stay safe to everyone in Lebanon
That's it, bro. It don't matter where your fucking background is
Like you know, there'd be a fucking card carrying
She has both law supporter, dude
You know, at the end of the day, the Israeli bombs, or sorry, the American bombs being deployed by Israeli fucking Air Force
does not make that, uh, does not distinguish between you and Hezbollah anyway.
That's why I kept repeating, this is the same shit that they did with Hamas.
But it's so funny that that happened only 12 months ago at this point.
And some of you dumb motherfuckers are literally coming in here and repeating it for Hezbollah!
Ow!
Or did y'all forget?
The past 12 months?
Oh, why is Hamas fighting back?
Why is Hamas fighting back?
If it wasn't for Hamas, Israel wouldn't be doing this.
After fucking 50,000 plus executions,
many of you at least had the DCC to shut the fuck up about that.
But now, I feel like we hit a fucking reset!
We hit a fucking reset. We flipped the switch. Now everyone's like, well, it's
Hezbollah! Hezbollah! That's the reason why it's happening. If it wasn't for Hezbollah,
they would just stop. Israel would just stop if it wasn't for Hezbollah.
You just added a couple fucking sounds of the same ha in the beginning. That's all you've done.
The arguments are the same. The counters are the same. The bombing campaigns look the same.
The justifications are the same
The country Israel is the same the weapons are the fucking same American weapons nothing changed
But some of you forgot I don't know how I don't know how this happens
What's next when they do this a fucking Jordan tomorrow you're gonna be like well
There's Palestinians in Jordan bro, I'll have you know maybe they have a different group out there maybe they have a
Hamdullah in fucking Jordan
Okay. Sorry. That's another ha group. They have to kill them. They have the bomb Jordan now. But
it's obvious. It's like, bro, is real good fucking do this to New York. And some of you dumb
motherfuckers will be like, well, there's a lot of fucking propels, they in college demonstrators.
Okay. Yeah, you're the who these in the MN. And yeah, you have the students at Columbia
university dude you know you never know you never know dude Hassan Abi of course what
the fuck is endgame ww3 bro update channel 14 Israel Biden is gearing the Pentagon into
conflict in the Middle East like it's crazy to me it's like it is literally the same shit
it's there is no difference brother there is no difference the only difference is like
Lebanese people have more fucking contact with like Europe and America and there's more in
diaspora that is not as united against Israel. That's the only difference, okay? Lebanon has
obviously internal conflict as a direct consequence of having like a multi-religious, multi-ethnic
society. So there's always going to be more louder naysayers just like the fucking
Lebanese dipshit that was on from the Middle Eastern Institute that went on CNN the
The day of the Patriot attacks, he said this is wonderful.
Yeah, dude, that doesn't mean he's like,
not a fucking animal.
I'm assuming there are more Lebanese Americans
than Palestinian Americans, right?
I don't know the numbers, but probably.
Please, when it comes to where this is going to lead us,
Israel has said that they are not going to stop
and that their window of opportunity for his Budla is now.
It's coming up on 2 a.m. where you are, Hamdine,
I'm on Jordan, so we thank you for your reporting.
I fear that it is not over for tonight.
we continue to watch these guys over Beirut
with these live shots.
Al Jazeera's Handa Sahut, thank you very much for that.
Let's go to Ali Hashem, who's in Tyre in Southern Lebanon
and Ali is now taking shelter.
So he can't come to us in vision,
but we are gonna be able to hear you Ali.
What are you learning?
What can you tell us?
Well, we are certainly just like you were talking
in the past hour, the General Air strikes
and actually there are some extortions around
And of course, it's becoming really very, very hard, and it's supposed to be, so now
given the fact that the number of explosions are huge, and it is just a war.
It's becoming a full-sledged war, which I feel as either extremities or they can
feel it.
And the package app is really welcome.
It's been taking all across the city.
There you are.
It's been a surprise.
I know they told you they were next.
There have been explosions around the hotel
where we are right now.
Most of the generalists are.
We're all safe.
There's no problem.
No force at all.
Let's be coming in the twist here.
Ali, look, and I'm going to be transparent with our viewers
here.
We know the audio is not great.
We do know that.
not for the first time in this war we have to fight through communications issues because
it is not easy to be reporting from a war zone whether that's in the Gaza Strip with
our correspondents there or now with Ali who's had to take shelter because there are incoming
Israeli strikes everywhere he finds himself.
Ali is there, is Hezbollah responding?
Is Hezbollah firing back at Israel?
Well, in the past hour, there was a large number of launch towards Israel, according to what we know now that a couple of minutes ago, they were several buckets long towards the stuff.
I don't know. Yeah. This is the.
Okay, there's no, you shouldn't be. I'm finishing bro. They won't bomb me, bro. I'm not a bro. Why are they bombing Lebanon? Aren't they finishing and not Arab? Okay, listen.
listen. Okay. I know, I know
you're joking. I know you're
joking, but you just alerted
every single I am Lebanese and
I think Israel deserves the
bomb. The he a chatter with
that joke. You just gave them
all of the anger and resentment
they had in their hearts
already. Okay. I've already been
duking it out with motherfuckers
who are like, I'm a Lebanese
and you don't understand.
We hate Hezbollah here.
Everybody hates Hezbollah and that's why it's cool that Israel killed 300 new Lebanese people
just in the past fucking couple of hours.
It's usually those motherfuckers who are like,
I'm Phoenician bro is different.
I'm Phoenician dog is different like, you know.
I know my NBC piece is live. It was live earlier too.
where Israel has been striking multiple targets throughout the day, including one massive blow
that was a couple hours ago, and what Israel says is a command and control center for Hezbollah.
There is still speculation at this hour as to whether Hezbollah's chief Hassan Nasrallah
was there when the target was hit and whether or not he survived that attack. Reuters
reports that yes, he did survive. There is also speculation in the Israeli media
that says otherwise we are not able to give you a confirmation one way or another at this
moment and Hezbollah is staying absolutely quiet on that particular issue.
You are noticing of course in the distance fire burning which is the aftermath of an
Israeli strike in Dahye.
Let's go to Hala Jaber, a former correspondent with The Sunday Times and author of Hezbollah
born with a vengeance, joining us from Beirut.
believe you told me when we last spoke that you are far from what we're watching on our screens.
I don't know if you're hearing any of these strikes. I want to mention them here but like
nobody likes Hezbollah in the region, okay? Like in terms of all these other places like
with Al Jazeera, you will get the best kind of coverage on Hezbollah. You will get the best
kind of coverage on Hezbollah from Al Jazeera, but even they are going to obviously be like,
like, you know, even they are not going to give like great coverage to neither Iran nor
Hezbollah in terms of their militancy in terms of what they do.
Only as a mechanism of defense against Israel, will they ever get any sort of like remotely
accurate coverage or positive coverage?
No, I mean, let's, let's, let's, let's start with the targets, just because Israel
claims that this is, for example, a weapons store or warehouse was not necessarily add
or mean anything. We have seen Israel over the past year, even in Gaza, make similar claims
that turned out to be false. And as you've been, as you've repeatedly mentioned on your program,
The southern suburbs of Wailut and Dahi, for that matter, is a largely civilian, populated
residential area.
Of course, because it's a bastion of Hezbollah, of course, they have their offices there.
They have the media offices there.
And many of the officials live there.
I mean, Hezbollah members or officials are not aliens.
They're dropped from Mars.
They're Lebanese.
They're entitled to live there.
Israeli officials live also in residential areas,
as do most other officials around the world.
So that is no excuse to carry out assassinations,
such as what we saw tonight earlier,
with bunker buster bombs,
2,000 kilos of bunker buster bombs
on residential neighborhoods under the pretext
or the excuse of estimating a leader
when you are actually going to be killing
so many scores of civilians.
That's one thing.
Second is, for example, the bombs used.
I mean, it was very interesting to listen
to Blinken earlier and to Biden when he issued a statement
of some sort saying that they were not aware of this.
It's one thing saying they're not aware,
but it's another thing because these,
they are complicit.
There's no doubt about it
because these weapons being used
and dropped whether they in Gaza,
especially the one could bust the ones
and the ones that were used earlier tonight,
sorry, last night are made in US
and delivered to Israel by the U.S.
Please don't make this a clarion issue.
No, I'm not, I'm not doing that at all.
I'm actually addressing people who are always like confused
whenever they come in and they're like,
well, you know, why do these people fucking hate,
like so many people are celebrating
Hassan Nasrallah's execution potentially
or whatever the fuck.
And I'm telling to them, I'm explaining to them
that it's not sectarian.
If there's only one unifying principle in the region,
it is going to be that everyone understands
what Israel fucking does.
Regardless of like what the coverage may look like overall.
Regally, basically.
And even then, Hezbollah has been containing its attacks
to what they call open fields.
What Israelis have been describing as open fields.
In other words, they have not been targeting civilians.
Or be it they can do so.
They have, and over the last 11 months,
they have avoided any attacks directly against civilians.
And when there has been a few civilians injured here, there, these were by error, not so much
by intention.
On the other hand, we see Israel continuously targeting areas where there are civilians,
uncaring for the fact that there will be scores, dozens or hundreds of civilians killed, and
they always come up with excuses.
It's a warehouse.
It's a military post.
It's the headquarters.
The headquarters reminds me of the Shippah Hospital headquarters that they did as well,
which turned out to be not so much a headquarter whatsoever.
So Israelis are literally in doing this, are declaring a totally open war and taking it
beyond what has been happening over the last 11 months between the two sides.
Hala, I don't know if it's possible to answer that question at this stage, but
is Hesbola able to stay in the plane of fire that we are seeing tonight live on our screens?
You mean and I can't believe I can't believe has Bola would fucking add additional
would add additional deterrence to Israel which shows that it will not stand down
until there's some sort of like military deterrence in place at least
according to Israeli history of conquest in the region I can't believe
that has Bola did that at the behest of the Palestinian population how fucked
up of them. They must be bad guys in this situation. Like talking about Hezbollah's role
in domestic affairs is one thing. Okay, but when talking about like, and it's the same
for fucking answer a lot is the same for the Houthis. People always are like, bro,
you don't get it like the Houthis like they're fucking beating gay people up or whatever
the fuck. And it's like, yeah, dog, nobody said they're great. Okay. The problem
is, if you don't want them have political prescience or any sort of like serious
political significance, okay? Then guess what? Israel has to stop fucking shit up in the region
and executing infinitely larger quantities of people with American weapons without even a
fucking shred of criticism being launched in their direction. It's so fucking dumb. They'll
be like, yo, what about the gay Lebanese people? It's like, bro, there are gay Lebanese people
in my chat right now. If I were to ask them, who are you more afraid of Hezbollah or Israel,
They're gonna say fucking Israel because guess what their grandmother might be getting killed by Israel right now as we speak
That is the devastating reality. Okay, and it's the same shit for the Palestinians, brother
especially so
You know people are like whoa homos is like Islam is fundamental is they're like anti-gay
It's like come on dog. What the fuck are you talking about?
You think the the Israeli bombs are just like geared towards homophobes or some shit? No, they killed fucking gay palsies all the time
They also on top of that literally blackmail gay Palestinians
They'd use revenge porn on gay Palestinians the fucking use them as collaborators
Go ahead. Go ahead. Okay
Yeah, I was just saying back to your question. Will they sustain it? I mean listen
the the the hits in the last few weeks
again, there is no reason I wouldn't want to sort of diminish them or make light of them.
They were serious hits.
No, but you've made your point and you've put it in.
We're each of them.
Yeah, but they won't, but they won't crumble, but they won't crumble.
I understand what you're saying.
And I think, and that's actually what my question was aimed at drawing out of you,
which is Dahye has sustained far, far worse
for people who remember 2006.
Entire parts of Dahye were leveled.
And in fact, the way the Israeli military
conducted itself at the time,
and the way it chose to conduct that particular offensive
gave its name to what's called the Dahye doctrine,
which is essentially the idea that Israel
is going to inflict very heavy
damage on civilian targets and the idea being hit the infrastructure of Hezbollah to try
and cut them from their support base. It didn't work. Clearly it didn't work, but that was
the doctrine. Hala Jaber, former correspondent with the Sunday Times and author of Hezbollah,
Born with a Vengeance. Thank you so much for your perspective.
It is now just past 23 GMT and if you're just joining us, let's recap our breaking
news story out of Beirut that's been unfolding throughout this evening with new developments
over the past hour. Israel has struck the densely populated suburb of Dahi'i in the
south of the city again with multiple airstrikes. Now these are the latest pictures of the area
where Israel's military says it is striking sites belonging to Hezbollah. It claims
the group has stored anti-ship missiles in the area. The latest strikes follow the
heaviest bombardment by Israel of southern Beirut, yet airstrikes hit several residential
blocks in the Dahia neighborhood. The explosion could be heard throughout the
city of two and a half million people. Israel says it was attacking a Hezbollah
command center as Dorset Shabari reports. As dusk fell over Beirut, and he hopes
that Israel would keep pleased to stop its escalating attacks of Lebanon were
shattered. Holy shit. Massive.
New York Times Israel's attempt to kill Hassan Nasrallah, the leader of
Hezbollah on Friday came after his government received information
He had just convened a leadership meeting in an underground facility south of Beirut, the Lebanese capital
Initial assessment of his early intelligence agencies is that Mr. Rana Zarala has been killed five Israeli officials said but they cautioned that assessment was preliminary and may yet change
That's crazy dude. Like I can you imagine Iran fucking like nuking
Tel Aviv
It's like Iran nuking Tel Aviv because like Benjamin Niyahu is doing a cabinet meeting like a war cabinet meeting
It's just crazy
What do you think do you think he's dead? I don't know
Bro, that is unfair it includes children there. Oh, damn, bro. I didn't realize Beirut was free of children
The six buildings that they fucking brought down just had no children in them
bruh only
Only Tel Aviv has children
Beirut Lebanon has
has as well a lot babies everywhere, you know, famously Arab kids don't exist or the nation
kids don't exist. That's not how this works. You know, this is why Netanyahu's in the USA
for protection or to try and bait an attack on USA soil. No, Benjamin Netanyahu's in the
United States of America because he's here for the UN General Assembly. So we can sit
on top of these like supposed international institutions that are supposed to abide
by like the standards that the Western world agrees upon and just put his fucking nutsack
on the table, which is precisely what he did. He literally came to New York and took his
dick and balls out and placed it firmly on the podium for all to see, you know, Kim
Russia now just nuked the Pentagon. Dude. No, of course not. Russia is a foreign
adversary. They're not allowed to do anything. Even though because they're outside of the
scope of American influence, they do get to do everything with zero repercussions. Because
when you put all of the repercussions that can be placed on Russia, it seemingly doesn't
stop their fucking escalation. Even if he is dead, this isn't going to change anything.
I know. I think Izzy isn't targeting Nasrallah at all. It was just an excuse to drop
Bunker bus. There's a make public stop talking about the past week of war crimes. No, I think
they were actually targeting Hassan Nasrallah for sure, but they're gross and and you know,
insane and don't give a fuck. They are desperately swinging for a W chat. They are looking for
a W. Any W they can get. If they decapitate the leadership of his below, that's a W. It's
It's not real, it's not like real military deterrence.
They don't give a fuck, okay?
They're just one on the PR front looking for a W desperately to get the Israeli society
back on board, okay?
And beyond that, maybe even finding righteous cause for a military takeover and a permanent
occupation with settlers inevitably moving into back into their homes in northern Israel
and maybe even Southern Lebanon.
I was pissing out the dude who beat them in 06 AW.
It would be a W if they killed him.
Israel is very cowardly in the way that it works.
They are afraid of the diaper brigade
getting their shit pushed in, so they will never actually
go in and invade militarily before they actually fucking
reduce the entire ground in the rubble.
and that's precisely what they're doing here. They're blowing up everything in sight.
They're trying to cause as much terror as possible.
And only when they feel safe will they try and like move their tanks in
and they won't even offer like troop coverage of their fucking tanks.
And then they'll get marked again and again and again.
But here it's all good because the American military will defend them.
Air Force fighter just attacked in Kiliterre, Muhammad Ali Ismail,
the commander of Hezbollah's missile unit in southern Lebanon and his deputy terrorist
Hussain Ahmed Ismail, with them other commanders and terrorists of Hezbollah were eliminated.
The terrorist Muhammad Ali Ismail's response were many acts of terrorism from a sector
towards the territory of the state of Israel, including rocket, rocket launch towards the
territory of the state of Israel, and surface-to-surface missiles.
Their assassination joined the assassination of the head of Hezbollah's missile and
rocket array, the terrorist Ibrahim Muhammad Qabisi, and the assassination of other
senior's officials in Hezbollah's missile and rocket array. The idea will continue to
act with strength and determination against the terrorist organization Hezbollah to harm
and eliminate their senior members of the terrorist organization. What does the sound
mean by diaper brigade? IDF, the Israeli Diver Force, because they wear diapers and
piss and shit in them. At the mere thought of like having to aim their weapons at
like an adult with another with a weapon in their hands instead of like another fucking child or a baby in a crib
they're baby killers that's what they're the best at

we will never choose a life of humiliation. We overcame this enemy twice. We will overcome them
again. Good luck, chatter. Be safe. How did Hassan Isra'la hide from Israel over 30 years,
but they just randomly found him today? It doesn't make sense. I mean, I don't know. I think
Israel is just simply escalating its attacks. Even if they had actionable intelligence in
the past, they never acted on it. And he's been through a lot. He's been through a tremendous
amount like probably nobody else almost nobody else in history if you dude this is a cucked man
right here let's see what really get right down to it and we're gonna have a discussion and see
what we can come up with he has the vibes of of mahmoud a boss anytime i see that motherfucker
next to like an american politician they they give off the exact same energy you know what
i mean it's like yeah what am i supposed to do like i got no options like what am i supposed
to do. You know, it is what it is.
Great honor to have you. Thank you very much.
Thank you so much for this meeting. Five, five years have passed.
So we had, yes, we had a meeting here in New York in September.
And now there are a lot of challenges, challenges in Ukraine and the United States.
And of course I want to discuss with you, I think, where we are together, I think we have common view that the war in Ukraine has to be stopped and Putin can't win, and the Ukrainians have to prevail, and I want to...
He looked at him like, fuck you, me and Putin can't win bro, chill.
I'll ask with you in detail tomorrow, I don't think it's going to work.
Thank you very much.
Thank you very much, Edgar.
Thank you.
Do you have a question for the president?
Why did you decide to leave?
I think it's me.
Or to both of.
OK, thanks so much.
First of all, it's very important to share all that.
Am I wrong or does Trump's position on Ukraine
mirrors yours, no hate?
Brother, if you think Trump has a decipherable position
on any issue, you are out of your dang mind.
This is a guy who literally will on Monday say that he doesn't think that there should be an abortion ban
And then on Tuesday be like just kidding. I actually went back on that decision
Yes, there are times especially recently where he's been like we need to fucking put a peace deal on the table
What the fuck is going on? We got to stop the the endless bloodshed, okay?
But let's be fucking real. This man does not give a shit about anything and he does not care about like
senseless bloodshed, he has contributed to it as the president of the United States,
and he will continue to contribute to it as the next president of the United States if he wins.
So, you know, every now and then he might arrive at like a reasonable position, or at least present
himself as someone with reasonable opinions on a matter, but that doesn't mean that he's
ever actually reasonable. They're leveling parts of Beirut right now, many strikes, oh shit.
It's a lot, but Israel has been attacking there and mainly those who are being killed
are civilians.
They're blowing up your country.
They're blowing up your country right now.
Nothing.
Around 750 in just three days, and God knows how many were killed in the attack in Beirut
and the attacks that are already taking place now in Beirut and in other cities.
Yeah, Ali Akshah, I'm very glad that you brought up that though.
He's still riding with Kamala Harris, okay?
700 people have been killed in Lebanon in the last, a little under a week, since Israel
has sharply escalated its attacks.
Wait, what?
You've un-endorsed her?
Oh, he's saying he un-endorsed her.
He's no longer endorsing Kamala Harris, but...
we see direct but still voting on Dahyeh and Ali who's still with us on the
line is reporting that there are also hits in the southern part of Lebanon.
How many people have been killed in those attacks? We don't know. Certainly
in the case of Dahyeh, we continue to say it is a densely populated suburb.
700,000 people live there. Some we know from our teams on the ground
have been fleeing and we are seeing massive fires burning now after
multiple strikes I have counted in the last hour possibly a dozen strikes who
knows what the human cost of that is Ali has in the last two hours or so since
this has ramped up even further has Hezbollah said anything has there been a
statement any communication from them at all well there was a statement from
Hezbollah that we just saw quite 30 minutes ago, that stated clearly, let me just read
from this statement that they denied the false claims made by Israel about presence of weapons
hidden in the civilian building stalked by Israel and they would sob in sorrow tonight.
This is the first statement in this regard by Hezbollah, aside from the statements that
the Hezbollah media warfare is issuing whenever they are attacking or they're launching attacks
towards, advocates towards Israel.
Of course, today we know from Hezbollah that they launched eight attacks, including one
on the, what they call, the settlement of Sair, on Kerma'il, on the city of Safar,
and also significant on a military base on the border artillery, which was like a signal
from Hezbollah that they are still present on the border.
Of course, that has a lot of significance here, given the fact that this war is not just only
about airstrikes.
It's also about what's being anticipated of a possible Israeli ground up position that
many are speculating about how is it going to be and how wide would it be?
And would Israel really be able to get into the Lebanese territories and from where?
Whether it's going to be from south Lebanon or it might be through the Syrian territories
and then get into the Bifar and try to split or divide the map in a way just similar
to what happened in Gaza when they divided the receptor?
So these are big questions now.
People are just waiting to see what Shenmuehla is going to say because
Shenmuehla is the party right now that is fighting from Lebanon.
So we are just listening, hearing from Israel.
Did Israel give a evacuation notice?
Yes.
The big things are being said.
Not that it fucking matters bro, what do you mean?
Over the past years we know that the Secretary General of the Islamic State is the man who...
This is what it looks like on the ground.
direction or tell those people martyrs square hamra actually even the people of lebanon who are following
this war like this is precisely this is the gasification of beirut this is the gasification
of lebanon okay they are they are turning the entirety of this sovereign state into gaza making
people move from location to location first they made people in southern lebanon is really
air strikes near where you are not far from time. First they made people in southern Lebanon move
to Beirut then they started bombing Beirut. David you're joining us now from Washington DC.
What's your main takeaway from the last few hours and everything that we're seeing?
Well it's the determination of Israel to destroy Hezbollah's ability to
to conduct fires into Israel.
So when, you know, we lose sight of this.
Is it crazy that they're saying that because like,
Hezbollah has fired counter missiles into Israel
since this started?
Basically said they were going to make Northern Israel
uninhabitable.
I don't think any Israeli leader can do that.
What's really profound about this is how compromised
Hezbollah's internal security was.
So you saw a number of attacks
which were preceded by an amazing commando raid into Syria
that destroyed the Iranian Hezbollah missile fabrication
and storage facility, followed up by this blow after blow
after blow.
So it remains to be seen, Hezbollah has the ability
to reconstitute itself if the Lebanese state,
which the Lebanese army is not involved
in these factions here, if it does not choose
to try to reestablish sovereignty over all of Lebanon,
but at least in the short term,
Hezbollah has been set back many, many years
in its ability to project power
outside of Southern Lebanon with the Convalent.
Yeah, I was gonna ask you about that,
whether it is possible to assess
at this very early stage still the damage
that has been done to Hezbollah.
There is no doubt that, yes, of course,
this is damaging to them,
but at the same time, they've spent two decades,
according to most analysts,
and I think you won't disagree with me on this,
they've spent the best part of two decades arming,
preparing for a moment like this.
So one assumes that Hezbollah,
as one of the most powerful armed groups in the world,
is ready and able to sustain something like this.
Well, yeah, but the level of the compromise
really is breathtaking.
I mean, almost all of the senior leadership
has been killed.
When I look at this, given Hezbollah's internal security
practices, normally folks would interrogate each other,
but clearly they were compromised at a level
that was above interrogation by Hezbollah counter-intelligence.
That would lead me to conclude
it would either be somebody at the top,
and I think that's extremely unlikely,
or what is more likely, that perhaps Iran's
Revolutionary Guard interlocked tourists
within Hezbollah, with Hezbollah,
that there was a compromise there.
that seems to be a little bit more likely,
but even so, you've got a lot of problems here.
First off, much of the missile inventory
and the ability to produce it has been destroyed.
And I disagree with one of the earlier reports
saying that Hezbollah has shown restraint
in the last few days.
I think you could easily draw the opposite conclusion,
which is that their ballistic missile capacity
has been so degraded that they're unable to launch
an effective strike with salvos of missiles
against Tel Aviv or the interior of Israel.
And then the other problem is when they recruit,
you know, they're going to see people who have a level
of mistrust in their own organization.
And that will have a profound morale effect
upon recruits, potential recruits,
and members of the organization.
So even if it reconstituted itself,
it will be much more poorly armed,
much less coordinated,
and its morale and fighting spirit
will be significantly degraded,
probably for a generation.
So what you're telling us, you're right, by the way,
that multiple guests have told me for the moment
Hezbollah has not carried out the level of attacks
on Israel that it could have done, right?
It hasn't, except in one instance of one big missile
that was aimed at Tel Aviv
and that was safely destroyed by Israel.
Except for that one instance a couple of days ago,
Hezbollah so far has not appeared to have aimed at massive Israeli population centers,
namely Tendaleev.
And you're saying it's not because they don't want to, it's because they can't.
Well, it's an equally valid conclusion.
Given the scale of destruction, and we forget, this did not start with the pages.
It started with the destruction of the missile fabrication storage facility in Syria.
It's an equally valid conclusion that they no longer lack the ability to do this.
If they had fired, say, 20 missiles at the same target, they probably would have overwhelmed
any missile defense system.
And I don't see the point when you're seeing the methodical elimination of the entire
high command of this Bola, I don't see the point in just firing one missile, you know,
as a statement that it seems to be closed.
I don't know if I'll survive this.
If God will play my life, then so be it.
But we'll move further in another location.
I need to shut my phone down.
But all I ask you to do is keep us in your prayers.
I think it was on for all your many shoes. I always like to watch.
You're going to be all right. Okay. Be safe. Chatter credit.
David, we're, we're seeing the largest, uh, at least from our vantage point,
it's very impressive what we're seeing on our screen. Uh, it is remarkable.
Um, and to be completely honest, makes me somewhat uncomfortable to be
watching this live. Uh, we are seeing fire raining down on parts of, uh,
Dahye, the southern suburb of the Lebanese capital Beirut.
Again, we have said many times here, a bigger pardon.
We have said many times since the beginning of this program
that there are hundreds of thousands of people who live here.
Yes, Israel says that it is aiming for missiles.
It is aiming for, they said earlier,
a command and control center.
We don't know because we don't have the evidence.
They don't tend to offer the evidence for why they say
they aim for a certain place.
But the reality is that there are many people,
many ordinary Lebanese people who live in the suburb of the capital.
You know, as I listened to you, you mentioned the provenance of Hezbollah's weapons, many
of which come from Iran.
On the flip side, many of Israel's weapons come from the U.S.
So I'm wondering, as I see these hits on Beirut, the U.S. has come in for an enormous
amount of criticism for continuing to supply Israel with weapons that have been used
to kill Palestinians. As I watch these live pictures, I wonder, isn't the U.S. again going
to come in for criticism if Lebanese people die under American-made bombs?
Yeah, and that's-
His dude has literally no clue at all about the psyche that he is.
If he's saying he'd be dissuaded from joining his below in the future, yeah, no.
I don't- that is kind of funny for like a D.C. strategic studies guy to say this,
like a DC think tank guy to say this
from the National Defense University,
because the entire history
of the United States military occupation
has always, always resulted in more people joining the fight.
I said it's the burden of being a superpower.
The superpower could act in a different way, right?
Because the superpower is saying they want to cease fire.
It's saying they don't want a military escalation.
It's saying they want to cease fire.
They have presented a plan
which their ally Israel has completely snubbed,
apparently hasn't even bothered to answer to.
The US could actually pull its weapons,
but what it has done instead is in the last 24 hours,
commit itself to another package of military aid
worth $8.5 billion to Israel.
Yeah, good question.
So, and I'm glad you raised it.
And again, I've been discussing this on this network
over a period of years with regard to other countries,
most notably the GCC states that were engaged in Yemen.
So when a security partner goes against
the current American policy,
there is the possibility of doing that.
But there seems to be a misconception.
I don't think you share it.
I don't think your analysts do,
but there's a popular misconception
that somewhere in Washington there's switch
and if that switch is flicked,
the airplanes fall from the sky.
The fact of the matter remains,
Israel has a robust domestic arms industry
and their stockpiles that have been built up over the years.
So if the United States adopts the ultimate
in coercion just stops all things,
it would take years to have an effect
on Israeli operations.
And what is particularly-
What they said six months ago
was that we're going to either stop delivering bombs
and mission or at least slow it down.
Don't you think by now we would have seen an effect?
Are you telling, I understand what you're saying,
that there's a latency between the moments
the US decides to-
would decide in this hypothetical scenario to send right fewer weapons and
the moment Israel was shut down and collapsed in its entirety if America
withdrew its support from Israel tomorrow and everyone in Israel knows this and
that's precisely the reason why there's a multi-billion dollar propaganda
operation forward-facing just focusing specifically on the Western world to
delicately tailor every Israeli action to Western sensibilities to justify it
It's fucking bullshit. Anyone who tells you that Israel would be able to operate this way without American support
Is a fucking abject liar. They know the truth
The Israeli society might not know the truth because some of them are fucking blood thirsty
But ultimately ultimately everyone in the military industrial complex is
Definitely aware of this reality. Okay
If it was so negligible we would have stopped our weapons transfers already by the way but we haven't so there are
some paradoxes here, but I think we are in agreement that the ability to affect something
in the short order, and this campaign has lasted less than a week, is not quite, people
have an exaggerated view of what the United States can do.
It's also important to note that, you know, the United States is not fighting, or Israel
rather, is not fighting the Lebanese army or the Lebanese forces.
They are, they at least claim to be, and their intent seems to be focused on Hezbollah,
which the United States has no great love and affection for.
So the argument seems to be over proportionality and the conduct of Israeli operations, not
the rightness or wrongness of operations.
So there are a couple of issues here that complicate that situation.
I think the argument is going to be going forward about who winds up dead.
What we were just saying before you came on about 700,000, sorry, 700 people have
been killed in the last six days or so of the Israeli strikes.
And inevitably, already four days ago, we were saying 50 children have been killed.
So you understand where the argument goes.
No, I understand that.
And there is an emotive appeal.
And obviously around the world, particularly in the global south, Israel has suffered
a great strategic defeat over the level of civilian casualties.
But in the United States suffers as well.
But the Israel's narrative, which has been constantly throughout.
This is not against you, but you know what so many of our viewers are going to be thinking
when they hear you say something like that.
They're going to be thinking, yeah, 41,000 people were killed in the Gaza Strip.
And then Israel said, what we did in Gaza, we can do in Beirut.
And now it looks like that is precisely what they're doing.
And after five days, we see 700 people killed.
So just the number of bodies piling up is completely out of this world and is completely
out of proportion with 21st century warfare, or at least what many in the international
community feel that should look like.
I sense you disagree with that.
Well, if you look at the casualty rates inflicted in March by Lebanese, Zizfala and
Syria, for example, you'll find very severe death rates.
And if you look at the casualties inflicted by Daesh
in operations in Iraq and Syria,
again, we find casualties in the hundreds of thousands.
But now you're comparing the video to Daesh.
You see the problem with that.
And you see the moral questions.
No, no, no.
That's a false equivalency.
You said that it was unprecedented modern warfare.
So I gave you examples in 21st century warfare.
I'm sorry to argue with you, but it's
a very, very specific point that I'm making.
Understood.
So yeah, I appreciate your courtesy on that point.
All right, David, thank you very much for your time.
As we continue to watch events unfold in Beirut
and specifically the Israeli strikes
that have been coming in with increasing frequency
over Dahye, that was David Beirut,
our security analyst joining us just now.
Let's bring in Hamdass al-Houth,
who's live for us from Amman, Jordan,
because the Israeli government has banned Al Jazeera from reporting within Israel.
Hamda, I know it's the middle of the night where you are, but are you hearing or learning
anything more on the Israeli side about what they're doing right now, the operations that
they are conducting in Lebanon?
Yeah, there's actually quite a lot of Israeli military statements that are coming out
within the hour.
The army is first saying that they have completed their airstrikes in southern
Lebanon and that there was a specific person who was a target saying that he's a commander
in his butler's missile systems and that he was eliminated along with his deputy of course
no confirmation from the Lebanese group on that they're also saying that they were targeting
his butler weapons depots and that the strikes in the south for now are finished but when
it comes to the idea the Israeli military has not talked about any sort of cessation
to the military activity there.
It's worth mentioning, but just a few hours ago,
the Israeli Army spokesperson, Daniel Higari,
had said that they were going to continue to str-
Wait, you said this happened when a plane was landing?
Oh, shit, is that the plane?
Or is that a helicopter?
This is a new
That is a plane, or a helicopter?
That is a helicopter.
Is it a helicopter?
Yes, it is a helicopter.
Is it a helicopter?
It is a civilian aircraft.
It is a civilian aircraft.
On the other hand, this point cannot be distinguished,
but it is a civilian aircraft.
It is a new aircraft.
It is a new aircraft, but it means that this is a civilian aircraft.
Commercial, that is it.
Yes, yes, yes, yes.
But let me point out that the storm hit the south coast of Beirut.
Perhaps it is not possible to determine the name of the street now.
But we are talking about the attacks against the south coast of Beirut.
But let me point out that we were watching a civil plane now landing in the airport of Rafiq Al-Hareer Al-Dawli.
It was passing and passing through the airfields in the south coast of Beirut.
And at the time, the Israeli military fighters were firing their missiles towards the south-western side.
Therefore, this issue was in addition to the warning of the Lebanese authorities, which were saying...
We don't know whether what we're watching now is they prelude to a ground operation, grounding
Persian into Lebanon, correct?
That's right.
The Israeli military has said that there is no option they will not use, that if a ground
invasion into southern Lebanon is necessary, that they would do that.
But they didn't really say it would be as a last resort.
They just said that they would do that if necessary, and that in fact, preparations
are being...
I gotta explain something to you, okay?
When Russia did this to Ukraine, there was a lot more eyeballs and attention on
matter. When Israel does it the Lebanon, it's just another fucking Friday.
Just understand that when Russia was doing this to Ukraine, all attention was on this.
All Western media was talking about it. That's all people would talk about.
No justifications, no holds barred, completely unacceptable atrocity, which it was
for the record. It was. Russia's invasion of Ukraine was unjustifiable, brutal, bloody,
completely unacceptable but I want you to understand something like these are
real people just like Ukrainians are real people getting blown to fucking bits
in their homes and there is no interest whatsoever from the Western world even
this community like normally people will be tuning in to see what the fuck is
going on but there isn't even like real attention to it in the same degree
And I think part of that is because dead brown people are seen as a nuisance, whereas dead
white people are very different dynamic.
You know, that's it.
And it's not just popular there.
It's popular among Netanyahu's government.
And it's also popular among some of Netanyahu's political rivals within the opposition who
said that Netanyahu took the right step here in attacking more sites in Lebanon.
But look, there are of course some who say that this is the wrong choice.
everywhere. No, I know it's it's still making the news. I mean, CNN is talking about it
as well. Instead of covering Kamala Harris is like insanely right wing fucking border
wall proposals or whatever the fuck she's doing right now. Like the absolute dumb ass
that she is. But there is no world like CNN is covering it. MSNBC isn't covering it.
Fox isn't covering it. Like there is no world in which this would occur if like when
When Russia invaded Ukraine, this is all anyone could think about, anyone could talk
about.
When Israel is invading and blowing up Lebanon, it's just another day.
It's just another day.
Think about it with October 7.
October 7, front page headlines everywhere.
Every outlet stopped and changed their coverage to breaking news updates from Israel.
Meanwhile, it's either omission or a complete collaboration with the state of Israel.
The dynamic is definitely different. See? They've already switched away to the Hurricane
death toll in Georgia. Now, this is a devastating atrocity. Don't get me wrong. And this deserves
coverage. But in this circumstance, I promise you, I promise you, if like, the reason why I'm
I'm mentioning this is because the human toll is not calculated in the same way when it is
the victims are victims of, you know, a Western imperialist endeavor. If you even for a moment
think that they be talking my hair speaking at the border soon as CNN on October 7, you
be wrong. It's crazy to think, but this is some of the ways in which I think Israel
gets away with behaving this way. This is the fund Israel to take the diplomatic path.
This is the Middle Eastern Institute guy ceasefire initiative right now. So we are barreling towards
escalation towards a major war. And the big question is whether it will have regional
dimensions, including Iran or not. What do you mean exactly by that? And meaning how
Iran will respond to this? Yes. I mean, everybody knows that his
Fala is Iran's most powerful ally beyond its borders. It's a product of some
bro's yapping about American network showing American natural disaster
emergency over something 5000 miles away. First of all, Israel's actions are
also an American natural disaster that we are causing. Okay. In Lebanon,
that's number one. The point I'm making is that the media attention to
atrocities committed by our adversaries is far different than the media's attention to atrocities
committed by our allies. That was simply the point. If it's that frustrating to you, I don't know,
you know, maybe reconsider your stance on the matter, reconsider why you're upset about it,
why you immediately choose to fucking misunderstand the point I'm making. I'm not even saying that,
like, of course, these things are not important. Of course, they're important to cover.
If you think, if you think personally that if like fucking Paris was being firebombed in a similar degree
American media would be covering anything but that and that alone you're delusional
They unfollowed you won't get a response. I know it's just like it's so it's so silly
Or do you think Middle Eastern people are sitting there waiting for Western sympathy?
I've been saying this in your chat
But we know they don't care and don't understand even your chatters don't fucking understand long history and lived experience of that region
the moment you understand that I don't care about you,
you have a clear mind.
I mean, I know that already,
but I'm talking to Americans right now.
Americans who do understand,
and I'm explaining to them why the rest of society
does not understand or care.
Like more people in America that are paying attention
to what the fuck's going on in Lebanon,
give a shit about whether Hassan Nasrallah
was assassinated or not,
than the human toll that this has taken
on, and the,
and the toll that this has on Lebanese society.
But even those who do care are usually just like think tank adjacent like wannabe fucking
think tank Andes.
First the pagers get in the walkie talkies and then essentially decimating as well as
military leadership through target killing time and again.
The irony of course is that the lack of hardening of our infrastructure that causes so much
death and destruction here is because you know we only have money for one thing
which is the offensive capabilities of Israel.
it. So the irony is a lot of Americans literally don't even understand why they are bouldering
towards their own domestic demise. Why the fuck do you think we don't have an adequate
defense against natural disasters that keep increasingly worsening year over year? Why
not? We are the wealthiest nation on earth. How the fuck are people in mainland America?
Okay, we're not even talking about Puerto Rico at this point. Mainland United States
it's consistently getting flooded over and over again.
Obviously there are things outside of our control
or at least like things that are somewhat in our control
that we can mitigate that we're not doing
in terms of avoiding further damage
by accelerating climate change.
But beyond that, we could be spending money
to harden our infrastructure, right?
We could be doing that.
But we're not doing that because nobody wants to even admit the fucking climate change is
real and it's disastrous.
And there's simply not enough money to go around for hardening our infrastructure.
We can't do that.
We're too busy finding new ways of lasering brown children.
Oh, yeah.
The attitude is fuck Florida.
We need to send 50 billion to Israel so their economy doesn't collapse.
as Moody's downgrades them once again, unacceptable.
Unacceptable act of anti-Semitism from Moody's, by the way.
Someone needs to put an end to this.
Crumptown Hall in Michigan is live.
We'll do that again.
This time he doesn't have Sarah Fuckabee.
Seems like it's the same arena these days.
The automotive parts of duct-a-lion
for brake components, axle components.
What's your answer to the automotive industry's problems?
nuclear war.
We're using jobs to China, India, Mexico, and it's become more difficult to compete.
Manufacturers like us, we are some of the largest users of energy, and under Paris and Biden,
the energy costs triple.
So my question is, what would you do to get energy back down so US manufacturers can
compete and bring it back to the jobs here?
Yeah.
So it's a great question.
people have the same question because it's affecting the companies.
I just left one, a man from the Netherlands.
We made a speech, a wonderful guy.
And he said the problem was he opened up because of me.
He opened in 2017, and he had three great years.
And now with them he's not doing well.
What we're doing is, I said about the energy,
is to what we do and how we do it.
But China is coming in, and you said Mexico.
Mexico is a big threat now.
Mexico is taking a lot of your business.
And we're not going to let that happen.
We need a smart series of tariffs and taxes.
We're going to bomb Mexico.
Our simple business.
You know, China won't take cars from outside of China.
They only take them if you build in China.
You have to build your factory.
So if I'm making a car and I think I'm going to sell it
into China, they have a massive 100 over 100.
Good thing Trump didn't sign like a new version of NASA
when he was president.
I'm going to have to build my factory in China.
And they encourage it.
They help it.
We're going to be doing the same thing,
but we're going to do it even better.
We're going to bring cars back.
We're going to bring, like you say, what are you,
auto parts and things like that, right?
We're going to bring that all back to this country.
It's all coming back.
If they had to pay tariffs on what they're doing
and what they're selling into our country,
they wouldn't be putting your business out of business
if that's where you're going.
It will never happen, and we're going to do it
just the opposite.
Plus, we're lowering the tax rate.
So I took it from 39% to 21%.
These are for companies and that's why
we had the great numbers for jobs.
But now what I'm doing is I'm going
and nobody thought that was possible.
And I got it approved by Congress,
believe it or not.
Now we're going to 21, from 21 to 15%,
but you have to make your product in the USA.
So if you want to take advantage of the low tax rate,
you have to make your product.
So, we'll be down-
Fuck it, lower to zero, bitch.
Let's go.
One of the lowest tax rates in the whole world,
so it's more than competitive, companies will come here.
But in addition to that,
we're gonna keep this really terrible competition.
I don't mind the word competition, but it's predatory.
And we're gonna keep this competition out
so that you're able to grow your business
and grow it well.
And you'll make the product
and you'll sell it inside our country.
I know
Celebrating a corporate tax rate going down to 15% like it fucking impacts a single one of these people dude
Like yeah, this guy the Jesus my savior guy
He's like well, you know, I'm a I happen to be I happen to be a shareholder of Exxon mobile
This is gonna look it's gonna pay dividends for my groggers
senator my groggers and we've got
Lisa McClain Congresswoman
Yes
Warrior yes, she is a warrior and the amazing incredible
Congressman John James
And they will help us
Get this done. I I
Appreciate that you talked about tariffs and I think it's so important that
You continue to call out China and we support you on that
because we don't want China building those plants in Mexico and then running
those cars across the border. Without any tax whatsoever and putting everybody
here in not only danger it's over. Your union head I don't know who he is
Sean Fain or something. Whoever this guy is, he sold you out because he let
That Biden, who doesn't know what he's doing, I mean, you probably noticed, he let this
guy come up with an all-electric mandate.
Those cars are all going to be built in China.
We want cars built in the USA.
It's very simple.
And they're going to come in at levels.
We'll be having auto manufacturing at levels that we haven't seen in 50 years.
We're going to have a lot of companies coming in.
And we're going to make it competitive so they can come in and they can thrive.
Not like this gentleman where they come in and they dump product.
And you know what they do.
Oh, here, this is fun.
Kamala Harris.
And folks.
Kamala Harris, 2019, President Trump's border walls are medieval vanity.
And folks, on the subject of transnational gangs, let's be perfectly clear.
The president's medieval vanity project is not going to stop them.
you know it's crazy because she was right back then and we know the
arguments right
the white house and look at that comel Harris looking through the border wall
there
uh... down on the southern border
and don't know what specific agency she's with their probably cd
custom to border protection
uh...
the the
media that is traveling we know the argument
when i think president was border was a medieval vanity project twenty twenty
for looks up and on that very medieval vanity project. God this country is so
fucking stupid dude. We are such a dumbass country I swear to fucking God. Oh
my god dude.
Can you share what the agent at the last stop talks about?
They need rightly support to do their job.
They just aren't getting enough support dude. How is this language in any way, shape, or form
different than what Republicans say about cops and border patrol. The real issues with border patrol
is that they're simply not being respected enough. The real issue with the cops is that they're simply
not being respected enough. They're not getting enough money, actually. And that's right, we're
going to give them more money. And that's they're going to fucking show these these disgusting
barbaric savage immigrants. What's what, you know, and they work hours, they're very
dedicated. And so I'm here to talk with them about what we can continue to do to support them and
and also thank them for the hard work they have put in. We're going to make them feel good about the
hard work that they do. That's the problem. They're just not feeling good right now. They have
imposter syndrome. We're going to fix the border by fixing the imposter syndrome. Good to go to
war again. I think Rick Grinnell is here. Is Rick Grinnell here? I think so. Did a fantastic
job yeah they're fighting I said if I you guys want to fight you want to kill
people in your countries that's okay but if you do I'm gonna charge you 200%
tariff to do business with the United States and that's it they call me back
two days that sir we've made peace after years we've made it so you know it
really does it has a great power to it there's a great power if you like
what's the calculation here from them from the minds of the Democrats is
the calculation that like, Americans want to do Hitler policies, but they want like
a black woman to do it instead of like a white guy. Is that what it is? That was going on.
You're like, you don't get it. Like Joe Biden was not the right guy with the right person.
The right person to do the hit Larry and policies is actually a black woman. This
way, it's a diversity W. Okay. It's sick. It looks a lot better on the optics front.
Fuck it. Like, you know, abortion, who cares, right? Fuck it. Drop that one too. I mean, maybe,
maybe in a couple of years. Oh my God. It's so sick. It's great.
Leave it to anybody, but you had no zero estate tax. You had zero death tax, we call it.
sometimes I like the word estate better than death but a lot of people use the
word death and that was a big thing because you would have a farm and you'd
leave it to your children and they have a big tax to pay they'd go out to the
bank they'd borrow the money that ended up losing the farm and living like
hell and part of our tax cuts this lady is about the fucking meet the
estate tax soon it seems except just kidding of course none of these people
are going to get hit with the estate tax because they don't have like $15 million dollars, okay?
For those taxes, we'll have those tariffs. We're going to make those cars right here and then see
them loaded on a teamster driven big rig and taken all across the country.
And thank you to the teamsters. Did you know I got 60% of the vote with the teamsters?
So thank you, Teamsters.
That's the first time that happened in a long time.
Yes, it is. Okay.
Thank you, Teamsters.
Our next question is from Ashley.
Whoops, stepped on that water bottle.
Hi, Mr. President.
Hi.
Thank you so much for coming to Michigan.
My name is Ashley, and I work at the Chrysler plant.
Like many auto workers, I am deeply concerned about the future of our industry,
with many jobs being outsourced as we speak.
What actions will you take to ensure
that our jobs stay in America?
So we can continue to build the best cars in the world here.
We're gonna make sure that at the top of the hour,
when there's a three minute ad break,
you'll have enough disposable income
to be able to avoid said ads.
They say it's $6, it's gonna be free
with a Twitch Prime by connecting your Amazon Prime account
to your Twitch account.
you get one free prime subscription a month. Use it on the Hassanabi broadcast. Hassanabi.
Hassanabi. I call him. What do you have to say to your viewers that doesn't get irony?
I don't know. I don't know the irony of what. Here's the three minute ad break now. Business
away. And I didn't know too much about all I know is they were taking your car industry
away from you. They said it never happened. And lo and behold, somebody said, I remember
the event and then we found out and we had everything. We got the awards. We had everything.
It did happen. But I gave a speech which at the time was pretty controversial. We can't
let them take your car business away. Thank you for the 10 gifted subs allowing 10 little
So communists, communist fascists, Marxists, no longer see the ads at the top of the hour.
I don't know, it's like 19, 20 years ago.
And I could repeat it now without changing a word.
You cannot let foreign countries, and a lot of the times our worst foes are our so-called
friends, okay?
You know, our friends, the European Union takes tremendous advantage of us as an example.
They give us cars by the millions.
We don't have too many Chevrolets in the middle of European cities, okay?
European Union is brutal.
They don't take our farm products for the most part.
They don't take a lot.
But unlike Kamala, who always complains and doesn't do anything, I keep saying, why don't
you do?
I saw Marsha the other day.
Why didn't she do it four years ago, almost?
And I say that, you know, she's on the border today trying just to, what a day
for the border.
She goes to the border today, and they just announced just before she got up to speak that
more than 13,000 murderers from jail, solitary confinement people in many cases, were released.
But I just say, let's go back.
So we can't let them take our businesses, we're not going to let them take our businesses,
and you can control that so easily through good policy, not her kind of policy by
By the way, she changed her policy 15 times.
No fracking.
Oh, I like fracking.
Defund the police.
She wants to defund the police now.
Oh, I love the police all of a sudden.
By the way, when anybody is into defunding the police even for a day during their career,
they can no longer serve as President of the United States, I can tell you.
So we're not going to let them take our businesses.
And really a lot of that's determined by our taxation policy.
When China has to pay all that money, the people that liked me the best were the steel companies
because I saved them.
They were dumping China and others, but mostly China was dumping steel in here at
levels that nobody had ever seen before.
And it was putting the steel companies out of business.
I put a 50 and 100 percent tax on the dumping of steel and the steel companies thrived.
I saved them.
And you have to have the steel companies.
So we'll do the same thing and you don't worry about it, here's what you have to do.
I only ask you to do one thing and then you can sleep beautifully all night long, go to
a job you love and get a lot of money at the end of the week.
You know what the thing is?
Vote for Trump.
If you vote for Trump, everything's going to be taken.
There you go.
Everything is going to be taken.
Yeah, vote for him, all the good things will happen.
And vote for Tom, all the bad things will happen.
We have Todd.
It's that simple.
We've got another question over here.
is over here right there. Okay, he's got his microphone. Todd.
Welcome, President Trump. First off, I want to say you and your family are in me, my wife's
daily prayers. Thank you. May God continue to watch over you. Thank you, Reverend.
Let's just do it. We are becoming increasingly dumber and more violent and more belligerent
as time moves on. On the right hand of the spectrum, you have the Republicans that
They're just basically collectively hallucinating a completely different reality than what is
in front of our eyes.
And on the liberal side, you have liberals bouldering towards the Republican party's positions
of like only four years prior and actively yelling at anyone that even says, Hey, this
seems kind of fucked up.
This seems kind of weird.
No.
Don't you feel like things are getting worse and worse overall?
And they're like, Oh, I guess you want to fucking, you want the QAnon sex offender
party to fucking win.
You fucking piece of shit. I bet you're queuing on to great stuff overall. Certainly, certainly,
no one should take a deep breath and just like look at the situation with a, I don't know,
like a, like a larger snapshot view. You got liberals chanting fucking build the wall.
Okay. Kamala Harris is like, I'm going to be even more ruthless on the fucking border.
Good stuff overall from every party involved. We are bouldering towards fascism straight
up. Okay. Even if it's not this time, even if Kamala Harris does win, which, you know,
I still maintain the position that she most likely will, uh, the next time around the
next election cycle is going to be straight up, you know, not even 100% Hitler 110% Hitler
versus 100% Hitler. Very cool.
He liked it was Cadillac and I love I love it. I think it's a great car. I think it's
right now it's really it's come a long way too because it's come through some
problems but it's a very good car I buy a lot of them for different clubs and
things and it's great and they're like do you want gay Hitler or do you want
like crystal fascist Hitler for me does that make sense do you want prudish
christian Hitler or do you want to take care of your situation you watch what
happens when I do that and they're gonna be better positioned because I see
what's happening with the layoffs but you're gonna be they're gonna be
making, that's a good also, that's a good, I don't know what you call it, car, what would
you call that, pretty much a car.
He's the full package.
They're going to be making more than they've ever made in a very short period of time.
You have one thing to do, you have to elect a person with business talent and common sense,
and this whole thing is going to turn around very quickly, very quickly.
Thank you very much.
Mr. President, they have loved having you here in Warren, Michigan.
And I think you've got 5,000 people here and even more outside that have wanted to get
in and cheer for you and be here to support you.
And they do love you, absolutely.
Thank you.
Thank you.
And everybody is going to be working hard and pulling for November 5th.
And we've got great questions that have come from the audience tonight, and we're just so
excited that you took your time to come here to a great, all-American city and talk with
a whole bunch of auto workers and let them know you are on their side, and you're
going to make manufacturing great because you believe in the oh yeah this is so funny
as like it she posted this by the way while also also she's getting a lot of fucking steps
in I see god damn okay that's a lot of active cardio right there that's a lot of activity
honor Apple watch. This is additionally insane because this photo was posted at 11 48 a.m.
Which happened to coincide with the Duhia strikes that Israel was engaging in. Here is Ambassador
Linda Thomas who very famously said Palestine is not ready for statehood yet. Okay and
voted against it at the behest of the United States at the UNGA.
Here's her saying, Mr. President, when you came into office, you told the world that diplomacy
would once again be at the center of our foreign policy, and you charged us with taking
up the leadership mantle at the UN.
I'm so proud that we have done just that.
This is like nearing in a very, very short period of time George W. Bush levels of
disastrous foreign policy for America. It is kind of crazy to think like we have gone,
we have gone to levels worse than the Trump administration in terms of foreign policy.
And that motherfucker assassinated an Iranian top general on Iraqi soil. Okay. If you think,
And I mean this like 100% these, this last year of the Biden administration in terms
of American foreign policy, unironically was more devastating than Trump's foreign policy
in terms of America's soft power capabilities being diminished.
Okay. It's obviously nowhere near as bad as George W. Bush, because you know, there
is a layer of hell specifically designed for him and his administration, but it is
crazy to me that these guys have deluded themselves. I don't know if they ever talk to like a normal
human like maybe just like listen to your butler or something. I don't know. Just like talk to a
single human being that is not a land-eared wearing dick skin who fucking is basically a
lizard person wearing human flesh telling you that things are looking great in the Middle East.
Okay, please, please, talk to a single fucking human. You are directly at odds with the overwhelming
majority of the American population in terms of the ways in which the American population is viewing
like America's involvement in global affairs, but you are absolutely at odds with the rest
rest of the planet as well. Obviously the global South has always considered America to be a
ruthless force of evil on the global stage, but now you're even losing majorities in the
Western nations in the Western hemisphere. You're losing Western Europe in terms of your
fucking undying loyalty to Israel. It is crazy to me that like it is crazy. They have
just dropped any pretence that like America being the world police is actually like a necessary
evil they're just like now we're incompetent we're ruthless and we're bad and we're getting
fucking dog walked by our our attack dog we're getting fucking dog walked by our attack dog
right now as it is violently lashing out at anyone that it can in its vicinity with
American weapons and unlimited billions of dollars of weapons contrast going to
Israel. I just want to for a moment speak about Teresa. We had some time to get it
backstage and you know I think that in moments of crisis such as the fentanyl
crisis there are people who through their suffering and their pain rise with
with courage in such a selfless way,
to be a voice for others with the anticipation
and the hope and the hard work of hoping that their story
will be the reason other people don't have that story.
And you sharing your story about Jacob
and your advocacy on why we have stopped this scourge
is so incredibly important.
And again, I applaud Theresa, and I know we all do.
And our need to stop this issue is one of the reason that we are all here together today.
I also want to thank the extraordinary elected officials who are here.
Senator Mark Kelly came with me.
He and his extraordinary wife, Gabby Giffords, traveled with me from Washington, D.C.,
to be here.
And Senator Kelly has been talking with me for quite some time about the importance
of this visit.
So I thank you in front of all of our friends for your work.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Attorney General Chris Mays, who just tore up the floor.
She is, you know, one of, I'm going to talk a bit about it
in a minute, but some of the work that I have done
in my career as Attorney General and watching her do
the work that she has done as Attorney General really
does emphasize the importance of having the right leader
at the right time, in the right place.
And that's who she is.
Mayor Hewish, I thank you for the warm welcome.
We've spent some time together.
You've shared with me the needs of your community.
And I thank you for your leadership as well.
And to all the elected and community leaders here today,
thank you for taking the time out of your busy lives
to be here this afternoon.
Before I begin, I do want to say a few words
about Hurricane Helene.
I spoke this morning with our FEMA Administrator, Chris Well, and President Biden and I, of
course, will continue to monitor the situation closely.
We have mobilized more than 1,500 federal personnel to support those communities that
have been impacted.
We have food, water, and generators that are ready for deployment.
Why does it look like a paid sale?
Am I crazy?
We are working to restore power for millions of people who currently are experiencing outages.
And I just want to stress and for the press that is here, to those who are watching.
Sorry guys, I know we had some money allotted for recovery efforts but they must go to Israel.
Sorry.
Sorry.
So I continue to urge everyone to please continue to follow guidance from your local
officials until we get past this moment.
So thank you all.
And now I'll speak about, in particular, the people who
are here today and why we are gathered here together today.
So Arizona, I think you all know,
and this is why you are here, there
are consequential issues at stake in this election.
And one is the security of our border.
The United States is a sovereign nation.
And I believe we have a duty to set rules at our border
and to enforce them.
And I take that responsibility very seriously.
We are also a nation of immigrants.
The United States has been enriched
by generations of people who have come
from every corner of the world to contribute to our country
and to become part of the American story.
And so we must reform our immigration system
to ensure that it works in an orderly way, that it is humane, and that it makes our country
stronger.
So I've just come from visiting the border in the Port of Entry in Douglas.
I spoke with dedicated agents from Border Patrol and customs officers who every day see the
overflow of commercial traffic through the port.
These men and women who work there and at other places along our southern border help
keep our nation secure.
And they need more resources to do their jobs, which is why we have and are in the process
of investing half a billion dollars to modernize and expand the port of entry here in Douglas.
And why last December I helped raise the rate of overtime pay for border agents and
and also by a strongly supported, the Comprehensive Border Security Bill.
Written last year, written last year as you know, by a bipartisan group of senators, including
one of the most conservative members of the United States Congress, that bill would
have hired 1,500 more border agents and officers.
It would have paid for 100 inspection machines to detect fentanyl that is killing tens of
thousands of Americans every year.
It would have allowed us to more quickly and effectively remove those who come here illegally.
And it would have increased the number of immigration judges and asylum officers.
It was the strongest border security bill we have seen in decades.
It was endorsed by the Border Patrol Union.
And it should be in effect today, producing results in real-time right now for our country.
But Donald Trump tanked it.
He picked up the phone and called some friends in Congress and said, stop the bill.
Because you see, he prefers to run on a problem instead of fixing a problem.
the American people deserve a president who cares more about border security than playing
political games and their personal political future.
And so even though Donald Trump tried to sabotage the border security bill, it is my pledge
to you that as president of the United States, I will bring it back up and proudly sign
it into law.
Let me say the issue of border security is not a new issue to me.
I was Attorney General of a border state for two terms.
I saw the violence and chaos that transnational criminal organizations cause, and the heartbreak
and loss from the spread of their illicit drugs.
I walked through tunnels that traffickers used to smuggle contraband into the United
States.
I've seen tunnels with walls as smooth as the walls of your living room, complete
with lighting and air conditioning making very clear that it is about an enterprise that
is making a whole lot of money in the trafficking of guns, drugs, and human beings.
And my knowledge on how they work comes from the fact that I have prosecuted transnational
criminal organizations who traffic in guns, drugs, and human beings.
My team and I broke up a heroin trafficking ring in the Bay Area with ties to Mexican
cartels.
We took down a gang working with the Sinaloa Cartel to traffic methamphetamine into the
United States.
We seized millions of dollars worth of cocaine from the Guadalajara cartel and broke up
a drug trafficking operation, including pill mills and so-called recovery centers
that were pushing opioids with deadly results.
As Attorney General of California,
it was 10 years ago that I brought a bipartisan group
of American attorneys general and led that group
to travel to Mexico City to meet with Mexican attorneys
general to address this issue, and in particular,
to increase intelligence sharing on gang activity.
All of which allowed us to prosecute-
Why you never show Democrat presidential candidates?
Who the fuck?
Is this a fucking meme?
What's happening right now?
State of California, analyzing transnational
criminal organizations and the threats they pose
to public safety and to the economy.
So, stopping transnational criminal organizations and strengthening our border is not new to
me and it is a long-standing priority of mine.
I have done that work and I will continue to treat it as a priority when I am elected
president of the United States.
And it is my pledge to you, understanding how solutions get formed, that I will reach
across the aisle, and I will embrace common sense approaches and new technologies to get
the job done, because I know transnational gangs coming across the border, trafficking
in guns, drugs and human beings could care less who somebody voted for in the last
election.
They could care less.
They've got one goal in mind, and it is therefore critically important that anybody who calls
themselves a leader would work with other leaders for commonsense solutions, understanding
the pain and the suffering that Americans are experiencing if we don't work together
to fix these problems.
And look, transnational gangs, one of the things I know about them, they are always innovating.
So to disrupt them, we must do the same.
And that means, again, working together in real time, grounded on finding common sense
approaches, not just about some rhetoric at a rally, but actually doing the work
of fixing a problem.
And as President, I won't only bring back the border security bill that Donald Trump tanked.
I will do more to secure our border.
To reduce illegal border crossings, I will take further action to keep the border closed between ports of entry.
Those who cross our borders unlawfully will be apprehended and removed and barred from re-entering for five years.
We will pursue more severe criminal charges against repeat violators.
And if someone does not make an asylum request at a legal point of entry and instead crosses
our border unlawfully, they will be barred from receiving asylum.
This is literally 2020 Trump positions.
That many people are desperate to migrate to the United States.
Our system must be orderly and secure.
And that is my goal, and that is my goal.
Securing our border also means addressing the flow of fentanyl into our communities.
Fentanyl is a scourge on our country.
The nature of it as a drug is such that it is highly addictive and it is highly lethal.
So much so that using it one time only can be fatal.
I have met far too many families, parents, loved ones, who have lost a family member,
a child, to fentanyl.
And their grief is heartbreaking.
And the devastation caused by fentanyl is being felt from rural communities to big cities.
impacting communities across our country, regardless of where they are geographically, politically,
or any other demographic you choose to talk about.
It's a scourge in our country, and we have to take it seriously.
And as president, I will make it a top priority to disrupt the flow of fentanyl coming into
the United States.
And I know everyone here understands that most of the fentanyl in America comes from
two cartels based in Mexico most often they are smuggling it through vehicles
at legal ports of entry like the one I visited today wait the fact is border
officers don't have enough resources and our only citizenship status a fraction
of the vehicles that pass through their status this is unacceptable they need the
resources to do their jobs and as we could have done with that border security bill, I
will surge support to law enforcement agencies on the front lines more personnel, more training
and more technology including 100 new inspection systems that can detect fentanyl hidden in
vehicles, and we will make sure that our ports of entry, including airports and seaports,
have additional state-of-the-art technology to detect fentanyl and the chemical tools
used to make it.
New particle has trumped up three in Arizona.
I will also double the resources for the Department of Justice to extradite and prosecute
transnational criminal organizations and the cartel.
Yes.
Yes.
Keep completing that overview.
Hey, hey, say who's bringing the fucking drugs in.
I'm not sure that we target the entire country.
Come on, come on, come on, please.
Say who's bringing the drugs in. You're so close to the fucking border.
Because we must materially and sustainably
disrupt the flow of illicit fentanyl coming into our country.
My approach takes into account also
that the precursor chemicals used to make fentanyl
are by and large made in China,
and then shipped to Mexican cartels
and trafficked right here into the United States.
Our administration demanded that China crack down
on the companies that make those chemicals.
What happened?
And it has started to happen.
But they need to do more.
And as president, I will hold them to their commitment
to significantly reduce the flow
of precursor chemicals coming from China.
And all of this to say, we must tackle this issue from every angle.
Because our highest charge must be to protect the lives of our people.
It must be to understand the pain and
to have the courage to know that solutions are at hand
If we focus on fixing a problem instead of running on a problem, and on this issue writ
large, we must ensure that our country remains strong and competitive, which includes fixing
our broken immigration system.
And let me be clear.
I reject the false choice.
I reject the false choice.
That suggests we must either choose between securing our border or creating a system of
immigration that is safe, orderly and humane.
We can and we must do both.
We must do both.
Clear legal pathways for people seeking to come into our country.
And we must make our current system work better.
For example, it can take years for asylum claims to be decided.
Well, this is a problem we can solve, including by hiring more asylum officers and expanding
processing centers in people's home countries.
We don't want that.
We want you to kill them.
And as president, I will work with Congress to create at long last a pathway to citizenship.
Why is that not on the bill?
Why is that not on the right wing border bill that was supposed to be bipartisan?
Why was that not on the right wing bill that's supposed to be bipartisan dumbass?
I think previous democratic administrations would have put that in the bipartisan border
bill, I think.
I also have in mind our dreamers.
She ain't doing none of this shit, Chad.
She ain't doing none of this shit.
If she was doing any of that shit, it would be the fucking bill that she's talking
about.
There's so many of our dreamers.
And I'd be chirping significantly less.
be chirping because I'm like I still be upset at the fucking right wing border
bill funding mechanisms the border wall and shit but they didn't even put that
in there didn't put any of this shit as she's talking about in there there is no
clear bill that will ever pass Congress all things considered there's no fucking
clean bill that will be giving amnesty to fucking immigrants and also
protecting dreamers that will ever pass Congress the same goes for
farm workers who ensure that we have food on our tables and who sustain our
agricultural industry and they too have been in legal limbo for years
because politicians have refused to come together to fix our broken immigration
system. Well as president I will put politics aside to fix our immigration
system and find solutions, solutions to problems which have persisted for far too long.
For far too long we have all known this is not working as it can and as it should.
And so as I said at the beginning, these issues are highly consequential for our nation.
And the contrast in this election is clear.
It is a choice between common sense solutions and the same old political games.
In the four years that Donald Trump was president, he did nothing to fix our broken immigration
system.
He did not solve the shortage of immigration judges.
He did not solve the shortage of border agents.
He did not create lawful pathways into our nation.
He did nothing to address an outdated asylum system, and did not work with other governments
in our hemisphere to deal with what clearly is also a regional challenge.
As overdoses went up during his presidency, he fought to slash funding for the fight
against fentanyl.
His party's true.
And what did he do instead?
Well, let's talk about that.
He separated families.
He ripped toddlers out of their mothers' arms, put children in cages, and tried to end protections
for dreamers.
He made the challenges at the border worse.
And he is still, and he is still, fanning the flames of fear and division.
And let me be clear, that is not the work of a leader.
That is not the work of a leader.
And that is, in fact, I think we all believe, an abdication of leadership.
And so on behalf of all across our nation, we are going to make the transnational
national migrant gangs, trans.
We cannot accept.
Let me be queer.
And we're going to make them to lead.
We should not.
We're going to give them bottom surgery.
Skate goading instead of solutions.
And let's see what's happening.
Let's not permit skate goading instead of solutions
or rhetoric instead of results.
As your president, I will protect our nation's sovereignty,
secure our border, and work to fix our broken system
of immigration.
And I will partner with Democrats, Republicans,
and independents to do it.
Arizona, it is time for us to turn the page
on the ugly battles that have characterized our politics.
And it is time to move forward together,
to achieve real solutions that make our country stronger.
And I know we can get this done.
I know we have the will.
I know we have the courage.
I know the solutions are at hand.
And I know we are ready.
And so with all of that, I say, thank you.
May God bless you.
and may God bless the United States of America.
And I'm trying to tell you that that wasn't true.
There were some noticeable changes in the fucking rhetoric
in terms of like being somewhat pro-immigrant
except, and even including like,
oh, we're gonna do a pathway for amnesty.
We're gonna create a pathway for amnesty
for migrants that are living on US soil right now.
Which again, is an abject lie.
Why is it an abject lie?
Because if that was the case,
it would be in the bill that you're promoting.
If that's something that you actually cared about, you would say, we're going to go back
to the table and we're going to make an actual bipartisan bill. Okay. We're going to put
a bipartisan bill together where we're going to beef up border security only on ports,
uh, ports of entry to ensure that the American citizens that are fucking funneling drugs
into this country are apprehended at higher clips. Uh, but also make no mistake. It's
not the immigrants that are bringing in the drugs. It's American citizens that
bringing in the drug. So we, if you want to stop the drug flow into this country like I do,
then you got to fucking make sure that you are beefing up our targeting systems while simultaneously
making it so that these cartels aren't making a fucking killing on the other side of the equation
by trafficking fucking migrants into the border. The best possible solution to eviscerate
one of the funding mechanisms of the cartel. Where you going? Okay.
Alright, have fun. The best possible way, the best possible way to stop funding mechanism for the
cartel, get in his tracks from the, from its black market capabilities is to ensure that we have a
faster processing system so that there isn't like any sort of issues at the border. That's a thing
that you could be advocating for, but she's not. I also have a head Kamala Dickrider going viral.
Oh god.
Hi Austin Show, please tell us your name.
He just walked away.
Hey, my name is Austin Show.
Cool.
Austin, do you have a voting plan for 2024?
Yes.
I'm going to fill out my mail-in ballot.
He looks pretty jacked, though.
Well, it's in the state of Oregon,
and then I'm gonna vote for Kamala Harris.
I may vote twice.
Don't do that, it's illegal.
Oh, shit.
Okay, delete that.
Do you have a plan on where to put your voting sticker?
Yeah, right in the ballot box.
No, the sticker's what you get for voting.
Oh, oh, oh, oh!
I'm gonna put it, like, on the visor of my car.
I think that's a great spot for it, honestly,
because you can remind yourself I did my civic duty.
Yeah, I fucking voted and I'll think of it
every single day until I vote again.
Do you have a soundtrack in your mind for voting?
Hot to go?
I don't know why.
I love that.
H-O-T-T-O-T-O.
Yeah, H-O-T-T-T-O-T-O.
The polls are going to be hot.
Yes, they're absolutely going to be hot.
Where are you voting from?
I'm voting from down the street at the school
in Hollywood.
Hell yeah.
Well, we know our states are going blue.
Let's just move to a swing state.
I'm not a swinger.
I don't work late and I'm not a swinger.
Is there any reason that you think queer people might be apprehensive about voting?
They shouldn't be. No apprehension. Get out and vote, bitch.
Do it. Austin told you to.
Yeah, I told you to. Get to the ballot box.
Fill out your mail-in ballot, especially if you're in a swing state.
Go vote for Kamala Harris.
Because f*** the other guy.
We're going to Steamworks.
Yes.
Jackpact!
My name is...
This is why I'm an enemy to the LGBTQ community.
Okay? Let me tell you.
This is why I'm a foe, dawg.
This is it. This is it.
Anyway, let's hear, let's hear from a communist, pro-migrant Marxist socialist, okay?
Parents were ripped, their kids were ripped from their arms and separated.
And now they cannot find over 500 of sets of those parents and those kids are alone.
Nowhere to go, nowhere to go.
It's criminal.
It's criminal.
I will say this they went down we've wrote reporters everything they are so
well taken care of they're in facilities that were so clean these 500 plus kids
came with parents they separated them at the border to make it a disincentive to
come to begin with they real tough we're really strong and guess what they
cannot is not coyotes didn't bring them over their parents were with them
They got separated from their parents and it makes us a laughing stock and
Violates every notion of who we are as a nation. I'll be president United States
Not vice president United States and the fact is I've made it very clear
Within a hundred days. I'm gonna send to the United States Congress a pathway to citizenship for over 11 million undocumented people
And who is this guy?
Who's this guy? Who's this?
Yo, who is this guy, bro?
Jose Bideno. Huh? Jose Roberto Bideno? Who the fuck is this guy?
And all of those so-called dreamers, those docket kids, they're going to be immediately
certified again to be able to- I want to vote for this guy, bro. They talk that good
shit, they give you that bad shit. You're going to tell me not to fucking write in
this beautiful man's name. Okay. Jose Roberto. Jose Roberto Bidane. Do you think I'm not writing
him in? I'm writing with Biden bro. This country put on a path to citizenship. The idea that
they are being sent home by this guy and they want to do that is they go into a country
they've never seen before. I can imagine you're five years old, your parents are taking it
across the Rio Grande River and it's illegal. And you say, oh no, mom, leave me here. I'm
not going to go with you. They've been here. Many of our models said over 20,000 are first
responders out there taking care of people during this crisis. We owe them. We owe
them.
Damn, bro. Where was this? Where was this? Where's this been, bro? Where's this
energy where's this energy that's why when mother fuckers tell me like oh man
Kamala Harris gonna do so much okay Kamala Harris is gonna do what's up I did
why are you in the discord of this Austin is mad Austin is mad you guys
stop yelling at him here people hold on okay go people take a video like that
that was recorded in Chicago during the DNC as if it was recorded like I like they pipe me in live
from the streets of Chicago with Willem Belli right like what the fuck do you expect from an
interview like that a street interview with the drag queen what the fuck do you expect
you know you know i'm an undecided voter uh you know like i'm not voting for a genocide
I'm not one of her holocaust hair is what you should have said. Oh shit. Austin is so mad. He's breaking. I have unendorsed Kamala Harris
Okay, for president the United States, although I'm voting for her. Okay. That's my stance. I'm writing. I'm like I'm riding with Biden
just like
just like
What do you call it? Just like?
Chapel Roan, I stand with chapel. Okay. Uh-huh. I have the same take. All right. That's it the same take and
And
Yeah, that's it
Hey
look
That's it. That's it and and I will be taking no further questions people come at me and discord like they're the fucking associated press
Like seriously, you know, I don't what do you think about this? I have a really
Every time I fucking I have a really easy suggestion. It's called just not looking at this court. Okay
I think about that. Yeah. Have you, have you thought about that timing was impeccable?
Could you've watched that on like Sunday, fun day or something like that? I mean, they
sent it to me and they were like, what was he looking at Austin and doing what we totally
expected him to do always? Yeah. Oh, fuck. Austin is now unendorsed Kamala Harris.
Make that official. I've unendorsed. They're going to eat your ass on Twitter. They're
going to be like, Austin, is he even gay? They're going to do the chapel run thing.
I've unendorsed, but I'm still voting for, but I've unendorsed her for president until
she stops, uh, until the United States stops, um, funding the genocide.
That's it.
Okay.
Wow.
Brave.
I stand with the people of Lebanon and Palestine, just like my grandfather did.
The comments.
Loved him though.
Comments.
You look brawlican and at least
You're wearing a bros for Harris. Oh
My god, okay. Oh shit my cars here. All right get out of here, dude. Okay. We'll see you guys later
I got it from artist alley. I
Should have stole it from somebody that I know but um, all right get out of here
Austin is hot to go to the polls everybody
Austin Malis arc. Yeah, no, he's not. I'm going to I'm going to call I'm going to call in the question. His Lebanese status every day, every day going forward.
Austin was also in this very important voting for this election Kamala Harris.
Why didn't you still like Trump?
No, oh yeah, I voted for him in 2016. He was going to make him a baby gun.
No, but he didn't.
He didn't. I was making money back then.
I'm funny. I can't vote for a candidate who doesn't have the balls to concede when he
lost. I can't vote. Listen, he won. No, no, you didn't listen to me. He lost and he didn't
concede. That's un-American. So take your shit and get out of here. And if you support
somebody, Joe, watch about the throw hands, dude. How about he throw some money in
child support instead is an election and doesn't have the decency to concede but
he won he did not win he lost and he didn't have the decency to concede
so if you support that it was a get-eye it was a ballot so some of the dead
votes fent fentanyl ballot but how many people normally die on tours of the
capital. A lot of them died and the CDC just never reports it, right? You know what I mean?
Because people die during normal tours of the capital. The CDC like doesn't report it.
No, I think it's incredibly underreported.
If you can take a ship anywhere you want the capital.
Yeah, exactly. Anywhere. It's your constitutional right.
It's so funny because they're both, you know, Austin is so lived up. You just got to see
the full spectrum of Austin's political opinions. You just got the experience, the full spectrum
of Austin shows, he contains multitudes, okay? His politics are indecipherable, incomprehensible
to the average mind. And in many respects, he's simply the median voter. He's Mr. Progenery
six who also is hot to go to the polls. Okay. It's all Antifa and FBI, but the people that
are in jail, those are political prisoners. Absolutely. And they need to be released. Thank
you for loving America. Of course. Oh, they all know who Austin is. Damn. Washington. This
is them realizing Austin shows the background. You didn't know who Walter Mastin was when
this happened? Yeah. I'm pretty sure he did. He told me, but I don't remember.
We have an expectation on whether or not the Hezbollah leaders actually did or not.
I missed a lot of today's coverage.
We don't know at this moment.
Also, decapitating the leadership of Hezbollah is not going to magically make Hezbollah
go, oh, oopsie.
I guess we no longer hate the country bombing us.
So I don't know why people do this shit.
We're like, yeah, there'll be a period of chaos if that is the case.
But ultimately, this is a relatively short-sighted endeavor, like, I don't know why people think
that.
It's just weird, like, Hezbollah has a leadership structure, they have a chain of command, obviously
within that leadership structure, within that chain of command, there's going to be
other people that get elevated to that status.
I don't know the inner, the inner workings of Hezbollah, but Hassan Nasrallah, isn't
like the one guy, you know what I mean?
He wasn't like single.
He didn't single handedly cast a spell on the Lebanese population that made them hate
Israel.
Like, so you stop going after the person that's holding your children's kids hostage.
Wait, what?
I don't even know what you're talking about, brother.
Who the fuck?
Now, Hezbollah has, Hezbollah has Israeli children hostage. Is that what's going on now?
My man literally does not care. He's just like, I heard Israel's enemies and I am automatically
assuming that they are the same. It's extra funny because like Israel does not give a
fuck about the hostages, like not even a little bit, but I can't even fault this guy for
getting things mixed up, considering the coverage is literally identical down to the motherfucking
sound when mentioning whoever is an enemy of the Israeli state today. Okay. Yeah. My
man invented hostages in Lebanon, dude. It's crazy. It's wild cause like America's been
doing this for the past like 20 plus years. America's been doing this for the past past
20 plus years and like it has been a demonstrable abject f**k of failure and people are still
like, nah, nah, you don't understand this time is different. It's good this time. Okay. Sure.
Yeah. That's what happens when you, when you execute, like even if, even if Hassan
Nasrallah was assassinated, right? Like that's, what do you think is going to happen?
You think people are just going to be like, Hey, I know we have all these weapons
and stuff, and we've like hardened our defenses against an Israeli invasion, but we should
probably just not do anything about it. If Israel does or when Israel does inevitably
invade because the leadership structure changed. So now my motivation is no longer there.
I'm not like more angry or anything. Yeah, they killed my cousin in the Beirut bombing.
killed my mother in the Beirut bombing. Well, honestly, I feel like they had a right to do
that, you know, because as someone who is a Lebanese man, I've decided Israel has a right
to defend itself against my mother, who was sitting apparently by their assessment on top
of Hasbolah munitions. So all good. My bad. I learned my mistake. My mistake, dude.
Why has the Chad are not responded?
Even the crippling of Hezbollah's defense doesn't start by the CIA guy earlier was correct.
If that was correct, they wouldn't be fucking still lobbing missiles into Israel, which
they are.
So like it will at the very most, if they are dead, if a lot of the leadership structure
is like decapitated, they will recover.
it'll put like, it'll give Israel more time to potentially engage in a ground invasion,
but I'm sure they have contingency plans for that sort of thing regardless.
But ultimately, ultimately they will rebuild.
You know what I mean?
A lot of these, a lot of people don't understand, but they aided Hamas.
Yeah, they did.
And they are still continuing to do so.
The CIA guy is right about the level of response from Hezbollah, but the rest of his assessment
was trash.
I don't even remember what Hezbollah's response was.
Anyway, let's hear what they're saying.
In large death toll, that's probably going to emerge out of today's bombings, but also
the displacement of tens of thousands and potentially hundreds of thousands of people
over the next day or two.
And these are all tactics we saw play out in Gaza over the past 11 months, and
are being imported to Lebanon. Yeah, that's an interesting point you make about the tactics,
Mohammed. I mean, does Israel see this perhaps as an opportune moment now to keep up the pressure
on Hezbollah? Israel talks about this escalate to de-escalate, and Netanyahu says
they won't stop now, but Israel is pretty much taking its moment now, isn't it?
It is, and this... I don't want revenge because the cycle, the reason he was killed,
was revenge. The cycle needs to end. My cousin was blown up by a Libyan when,
While coming home from college for Christmas. Okay, but that's wonderful
But it's not like Libyans have invaded your fucking house and have also ended up, you know destroying your school or your mosque
or your church
And have complete control and an appetite for even more destruction
You know what I mean?
Like this is why this comparison rings hollow as long as
As long as Israel as long as Israel maintains
it's like unlimited destruction and death in the region. Of course people are going to continuously
hate that. It is the most normal position, right? I didn't mean like that. Okay. But like, that's the,
that's the entire point that I'm making. I mean, we should stop killing brown people. Yeah, but
Israel's not operating on the basis of revenge anyway. They're not doing this because of some
fucking weird notion of like vengeance. They're doing this because they want land. So,
Israel, Israel has an unlimited appetite for death and destruction in the region. They've shown
that time and time again, and an unlimited appetite for continuously occupying larger and
larger swaths of land in the territory under the guise of security commitments to their own
population. So ultimately, they're not going to stop, but they can be made to stop. They
can be made to stop by the one country that has been funding and facilitating this omega
genocide that they're engaging in. So that's it. We could stop them, but we won't. We
are not.
spoke at the UN General Assembly. It just showed a tremendous disdain for international law in the UN.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but Hezbollah did attack Israel first.
You mean like post-October 7? Is that what you're talking about? Hezbollah alongside the rest of
the resistance, the axis of resistance against American and Israeli aggression in the region,
operating unison with one another. It's because Israel actually bombed Gaza that Hezbollah
said, stop this now or we will actually make it so that your northern territories are gone.
That's it. What the same exact same principle holds for Ansar Allah as well. But if you're
asking like did Hezbollah attack Israel first? No, Israel attacked Lebanon first and then Hezbollah
came into existence. The Lebanese invasion is what created a necessity for a resistance movement.
You know, a force that would defend Lebanese territory from Israeli incursion, Israeli attacks.
That is how Hezbollah came to be. Okay, what's going on? I click away from the other thing
with hopes that there is more informative than everything reported by the U.S.
since October 7th.
Mr. Country, the hot fight is up.
More than Lebanon.
I mean, everything in the world did not begin on October 7th.
1978, Israel and May, southern Lebanon.
1982, Israel and May, southern Lebanon.
Sabra and Shatila massacre.
2006, second Lebanon war.
Murder 100 people.
But you always make it sound like they're just doing this to the sake of it.
They're not.
What are they doing it for?
Well, they've been provoked by Hezbollah.
Hezbollah didn't exist in 1970, please.
Okay.
I'm talking about the specifics of going on now.
The provocation since October the 7th has bought us first response
Yeah, October the 7th. Yeah was to unleash rockets on Israel. That's not true on October the 8th
It is what happened. Where did they fire the first rocket? They fired rockets on the 8th. Where?
Will you tell me? No, no, you just said they fired it Israel. Where?
He's gonna say they fired their first rockets on occupied territory that wasn't that isn't even Israeli territory to begin with
which is correct. They fired them direction of Israel. Where did they hit? They fired them
with the Sheba farms. I do. They fired up the Sheba farms, which as I said earlier is
an area of Syria. Well, the Lebanese claim it's Lebanon. Syria claims it's Lebanon. Israel
says no and it's occupying the Sheba farms. They fired Israeli military installations
in the Sheba farms. Have they got fired in Israel? They were firing a scenario that
Israel says is theirs. Oh, okay. Well, you know, now Southern Lebanon is going
be an area that Israel says is theirs and then when they fire rockets in the southern Lebanon,
that will give more cause to Israel to go and invade and encroach further and further into
Lebanese territory. It almost feels like this is 1948 all over again. 1948 is 1967. It's the
Israeli invasion of Lebanon. This is how the justification occurs. This is how there is
a permission structure designed around Israel doing this over and over again. How the fuck
do they do this every single time? Oh, sorry. Well, we declared this territory to be ours.
You're firing rockets at it. Now we're going to fire rockets back at you. And you're going
to be like, okay, fuck you. Now we're going to fire rockets in the Northern Israeli territory.
All right. Hit for tap, baby. 80% of the fucking rockets, meanwhile, are actually
from the Israeli side going into Lebanon. Mind you, no, Israel doesn't say that
Israel says it's Syria.
Because remember, P.S. Israel is occupying Syria
and the West Bank and Gaza
and Lebanon would argue parts of Lebanon.
This is the problem, right?
The core of the problem is Israel's territorial expansion.
It's a mess.
Attacks, what a mess.
It's Israel occupying multiple Arab lands
which leads to quote unquote resistance
or quote unquote terrorism, whichever word.
I don't care what word you wanna use right now
but that is the core, right?
You had John Miershamer on the show this week
made the same point, deal with the occupation
then you deal with the violence.
And look, has Hezbollah fired into Israel at seven o'clock?
Yes, I don't agree with that.
But the reality is 82% of the exchange of fire
between Lebanon and Israel since October the 7th
has been done by Israel.
Nailed it.
He hit all the talking points.
He hit all the fucking points.
America organized an imaginative Russia attack Canada.
So America fired back at Russia with Canada.
That's basically the same logic they used.
Yes, xenophobia, what are you responding to?
39 months of Islamophobic subscribers
Tori gonna Tori well now we're just xenophobic you could have word a bit differently you big it
Israel was a mistake Pierce Morgan is so stupid Tori gonna Tori fucking reactionary British fucking cuck you're mad at that
Are you crazy?
British chatter
British people are so funny bro come on be a little bit more embarrassed. It's like the same principle behind like like I
I spent every goddamn day shitting up and down everything that America does, okay?
The moment that we turn the crosshairs to like America 1, America 1.0, not America 2.0,
which is current America, and British people are like, oh, hi, mate, how dare you fucking
hell, it's 1 AM out here, all right, and I'm watching, what's your fucking mouth,
We are hot.
You fucking what?
Start with this fucking British racism.
How dare you?
It was nice when you were fucking making fun of the Americans.
Well, how dare you make fun of the Brits
at the top of the fucking hour nonetheless?

What is this?
More of Matthew Cook and Pierce on the episode.
Rhetoric.
I wish I didn't have to compare Donald Trump to Hitler.
But when he quotes the lines from Mein Kampf as a journalist.
Lav Amri.
As a journalist, should I not point out that?
You shouldn't compare him to Hitler because he's not working with him.
Okay, so what should I do?
So I'm a...
Yeah, no one...
You can't compare...
You can't compare anybody to Hitler.
You shouldn't even learn about Adolf Hitler, actually.
We shouldn't even be teaching Adolf Hitler, because he's a once in a lifetime guy, okay?
Like, there's no reason to learn about Adolf Hitler or the Holocaust, like, no lessons
to be fucking learned from any of those things, you know?
Like, this is, like, the fundamental reason why we teach this shit in schools, which
by the way, I don't think we teach this shit in schools well enough, seemingly.
Like, what do you mean, dude?
Why? But like there is no, ah, no, no one never, never again, never again means it will
never happen again. Of course. He's certainly not happening now. They talk about him like
he's the go.
The journalist Donald Trump says immigrants are poisoning our blood. I go look in history.
Who's the only person who said that Hitler? Should I not tell my viewers on Piers Morgan
uncensored? Should I go? Can't tell him that. No, you can say you can say he
shouldn't use language like that. Can I say he's you can't say he's the
new. I mean, I don't know if he's a new Hitler. There's definitely a lot of hit Larry and politicians
out there. There's a long list, dude called him the new hit. I've never called him the
new except the people. But you say I'm allowed to say I'm allowed to say he's quoting him.
You can if he uses a direct sentence, which you can chart back almost directly the same.
Yes. Absolutely fair enough. But the idea that there was any comparison between Trump.
No, of course not. Hitler is Hitler. We know that.
Is appalling. Hitler is Hitler.
Hitler is appalling.
No, but I want to qualify what you're saying.
He agrees to appalling. What is appalling?
To compare him to Hitler.
To compare him to what sense, though?
To calling him the new Hitler.
Yes, and no. Don't call him the new Hitler.
Is that appalling?
My God, I'm not playing the silly game right now.
Give me a word.
I don't want you to put your words about it.
Give me a word. I can't even make a word.
I think it's not accurate to say he's new, the new Hitler,
because Hitler killed 12 billion people.
Yes, not true. Not offensive.
But can I, if you let me finish the sentence?
No, it's not. It's not offensive. I think it's ridiculous to claim that like Hitler is some unique specimen of evil. Dude, what the fuck?
The entire purpose of learning about Adolf Hitler and Nazi Germany is so that we understand all the material conditions that primed a person to be able to do that.
And also how the entire world could basically turn a fucking blind eye specifically German society could turn a blind eye.
Except, if you kind of read into that a little bit too much, you start noticing the parallels
between Israeli society and Nazi Germany, and then all of a sudden it's like, oh, that's
a weird thing to think about.
Yeah, we shouldn't do that, actually.
Don't learn about Hitler.
I take it back.
Don't learn about any of that, okay?
Don't, yeah, who cares?
It just happened in the past.
The past is the past.
Come on.
Come on!
like, like, come on, dude. Oh, fuck. Like, this is kind of like a liberal version of being
like, well, did he say he was a Nazi? You know what I mean? You know how like Nazis
will always do engage in like, Holocaust revisionism or whatever. And then be like,
well, actually, how dare you call this obvious neo Nazi a Nazi? After all, did
And he say he was a Nazi and you can play that song and dance all the way to like everyone
but Hitler virtually to be like, well, they didn't fucking actively petition it or whatever.
Right. And it's all a lie. It's like, that's why we say if you're sitting at a table with
one Nazi and there's 10 other people, then that means there's 11 fucking Nazis at the
table. All right. Straight up. And that's instructive in understanding how fascism thrives
and fascist actions thrive in modern society as well. And unfortunately that comparison
might hurt your feelings because it's literally, virtually what is going on in identical terms
in Israeli society. Israeli society is held together by a resilient and quite unfortunate
bloodlust for permanent military occupation everywhere they can get it. Okay. And also
supremacist attitudes, ultra nationalist supremacist attitudes for the in group,
the in group being Jewish people. That's it. Like,
they can masquerade around and say it's for self determination. It's for sovereignty. It's for,
Or we have to create a Jewish nation state as well as a right to defend itself over and
over again, where you can't keep saying that.
It's not like the Germans didn't say that, you know what I mean?
They said that too.
They said the exact same shit, actually, identically.
Just the in-group outward was different.
I speak to a lot of fascism scholars, people at Ruth Bendier, Jason Stanley.
A lot of people say that there is an analogy between what Trump is doing in America now
and what happened in places like Germany in the 20s and 30s.
No, there is.
But you, I respect your opinion.
I respect your opinion that you don't think it is.
Give me an example.
I'm not having that argument.
I'm trying to make a separate point, which is if fascism scholars are saying, we look
at history and we make comparisons, they are scholars of fascism and they're saying,
hey, hold on, the rhetoric is very similar.
The way they're operating is very similar.
That is it.
That first of all.
By the way, he's talking about Trump here, not even Israel, which a comparison
within Israel is also apt. The comparison for America is also apt as well, 100%. Our appetite
for destruction is also endless, even though, unlike Nazi Germany, whereas like the Israel
comparison is better for Nazi Germany because of the personalized aspect of it almost because
it's like violence that it's dishing out to its own subordinates, basically its own
people that it's held captive for generations. Whereas with America, we have like streamlined
the process. It's a machine of death and destruction, but it's far away. So it's easier to not really
think about it, which is why you always have in American society, people of two minds, people
that are like, hell yeah, America being the world police is great, but also simultaneously
like, I don't know if we should be spending so much money on war, right? Like that's
not necessarily the same in a country that is hyper militant like Israel, especially when
like the violence that they're dishing out is directly in their doorstep. You know what
I mean? America got done with his ethnic cleansing campaign, a long time ago with its
indigenous population, even in terms of it's like chattel slavery regime, right?
So it's, it's easier for us to whitewash the wrongs of the past while still maintaining
certain aspects of that, uh, certain aspects of that white supremacist attitude, whereas
Israel is currently engaging in it.
So that necessitates more propaganda and that creates like a deeply personal connection
to dishing out that violence.
So you can just like, I don't know, hold a fucking rave next to a concentration camp.
You know what I mean?
That's like, not a thing you can do in other circumstances.
Like you can only do that if you're turning a complete blind eye to all this violence.
By the way, I don't care.
xenophobic bigotry Britain has done more to pull some losses from Israel than America has and I'm Australian by the way oh
My god
dude
If you think that I'm not sufficiently shitting on America every goddamn day
I don't know if you're hearing the words that are coming out of my mouth at all
Okay, and England can take some of that smoke too. God damn
Australian's some of you are the coolest people I've ever met in my life and some of you are such
Peasant brain cooks it is mind-boggling. No wonder you are still under the Commonwealth. Holy fuck dude
Have fun changing your coins or whatever the fuck's going on. Jesus Christ
Is it's actually shocking
You can't make fun of my country not on my watch dog. It's even worse. He's defending England as an australian
Like, did you learn nothing, dude?
Why did your fucking ancestors get merked to Turkish machine gun fire in fucking Gallipoli?
Huh?
Why?
Because the penal colony was sent there.
Like, what are you talking about, dude?
You should have so much more smoke for England than even me.
Dummy.
It's so weird.
Mate!
it's funny to have this level of like allegiance and defending England's awful
reputation as an Australian guy that's really funny or free speech they should
be you can't hate on friends I'm Algerian by the way you said you used to be the
free speech champion I am and then you said regulating everyone's feet I'm
calling I'm not I'm asking you just told me I asked I call it appalling
regulating what you're saying you're asking you can you bring it in
yourself to condemn people who say he's the new Hitler. I don't know who those
people are. JD Vance called him the new Hitler and he's his running mate. So take
it up with JD Vance. Call him on your show. You can do any one of the lefties as
it's a right. I guess what though? Who says he's the new Hitler?
Specific. Those specific words. The new Hitler. Yes. Okay. Is he speaking? Oh
God dude. Matthew, don't play this fucking game dude. It's so annoying.
It's such an unproductive game to play with this fucking baboon in his
Like Hitler? Yes, he is. I can actually be condemned. Do you condemn him speaking like Hitler?
Yes. Does that not outrage? Of course. He's not your pal. Why don't you tell him to stop it? Of course.
Have you ever told him to stop quoting Hitler? Yes, probably. I come over the last thing he did
was before or after, but if I do again, I will. Yes, of course. Good. And hosting a holocaust
tonight at Mar-a-Lago. Yes, Nick's went. It's absolutely a commender. Have you told him to
stop doing that? I said it on Twitter to him. Don't let white supremacists anywhere near you.
Why are you doing that? No, that's not condemnation.
Don't let white supposed is anywhere near you. Why are you doing that while also simultaneously quoting it off Hitler?
sir
Mr. President sir, why are you doing that it quite seems like you like it?
seems to me like
You're giving people the wrong impression. Well, maybe the right impression. I don't know
That's a question. I think it's in them. It's disgusting. It's appalling. It's a pool of good. Oh, yeah
I agree with my speech. I love what we agree.
Anyway, good stuff.
It's unseemly, my good sir.
How dare you? Unseemly, I say.
Where's Paul, him?
He's late. He's going to be late today.
Trump versus Harris Middle Ground.
Why do you all want me to fucking watch this, bro?
Oh, Hassan, I've been hit in the building. OK.
From third world is offensive to me, bro,
because you're talking about us
did kasia reach out to you about khalia williams before the execution no
subhuman no it's not that it's a subhuman who are as developed as we are so they're the third world
so if you're stoning women after they've been raped in the bible let me let me know no no no no no no
damn dog he got it there there's a big there's a big epidemic of Haitian stoning women after
after they got raped, or Venezuelans, or whatever the fuck this guy's argument is.
That's cool. I did VIP Mason yet.
And from Iran, and it happens now.
Another day, another episode of Middle Ground.
Hi, my name's John. I'm the host of Radical Empathy,
and I will be moderating today's episode
between Harris supporters and Trump supporters.
Our first prompt is...
The video is loud, I know. It's like much louder than me.
No matter what my candidate does, I will still vote for them.
I mean, I'd be lying if I said if Trump came out in a crowd and just started, you know,
yelling at people, calling them stupid, or like, did something crazy that I wouldn't
still vote for him.
It would have to be like, walk out in Times Square, shoot someone in the face, kind of
thing.
Like, it would have to be something outrageous for me to not vote for him right now, and
that is only because these are the only two choices I have, which sucks for us as
American people.
We should have a lot more choice in this.
We should have had more debates.
We should have had more people involved in the debates.
It would just, it would take a lot for me
not to vote for him just because I care so much
about securing our country and my right to own firearms.
So for me, we know Kamala's character.
And so even thinking if she does the worst thing ever,
would I still vote for her?
Yeah, because I know the worst thing that she could do
wouldn't even be the best thing that Trump does, right?
Like she, the bars are very different.
In addition to that, of course I'm gonna vote for her
because Trump is such a terrible alternative.
I'm afraid to see what our country would look like.
I'm voting for a comma for pragmatic reasons.
January 6th made Trump ineligible in my eyes.
He's a traitor.
He disrupted 200 years of peaceful transfer of power
for his own selfish reasons
that he'd now admit that he'd lost by a whisker,
sarcastically, according to him.
Let's bring in our disagreeers.
People think it like really upset at Donald Trump
for January, things are so funny to me. It's like our entire system is fundamentally broken,
dude. Like it's like, I'm sorry, out of all the things that Donald Trump did, okay, out
of all the things that Donald Trump did, awful shit, okay, senseless deregulation,
so aggressive that like even fucking certain big oil, uh, participants had to be like,
right dude. We're actually fucking up the bag a little too much. Um, and insane tax cuts
for the mega wealthy and corporations for absolutely zero reason at a time for record
high profits, like completely fucking up the pandemic response that led to the deaths
of hundreds of thousands of Americans. Like there's so many things that you could point
to, that like, I'm sorry, January 6 does not even reach the top five. Okay. Like the intensity
in which people talk about January 6 or like Donald Trump's desperate attempts at trying
to in the stupidest way possible overturn the results of an election is hilarious to
me. It's like, dude, this country sucks dick. Okay. It sucks. It fucking sucks. We're not
doing, we don't have healthcare. We barely have any sort of fucking financial help for
people that are suffering. And, and you're over, we're giving unlimited dollars to, you
know, genocide dares all across the globe. We spend way much time, way more time, effort
and emphasis on like, uh, maintaining America's global posture, which is death and destruction.
And you're over here at no gun control, abortion rights have been taken away, and you're over
here fucking being like, man, that January 6th thing, it's like really mad, it makes
me so mad.
Each of you have to steal the election.
It's like, bro, the system is collapsing in front of your fucking eyes, and you're
most frustrated about that.
Come on, dude.
I'll go first again, like, one of these two people are getting in, uh, right
now my choice is Kamala Harris that doesn't mean that anything that she does is going
to keep that support. My biggest issue right now is the genocide going on in Gaza, propagated
by both the Trump administration and the Biden administration. You could say that prior
to October 7th there was peace going on between Israel and Gaza as I've heard a lot
of Trump supporters say. That's just factually inaccurate, especially with the Abraham
Accords, especially with moving the embassy to Jerusalem. These are things that I'm
very critical of Trump on and I'm still having trouble announcing my support for
Kamala Harris. It was a big moral decision to even come on the show in support of her,
but that's because I don't support her again. I think that Donald Trump is going to be somebody
that's far worse for the country than she will be.
So did you know that this is the lowest civilian to combatant death rate of any war in recent
history? Did you know that?
I'm responding to that because I can't just let your word genocide go because it's
It's not a genocide. If it was a genocide, it would have ended two days later and it
would have been planned, everyone would be dead.
So it's not a genocide.
Yeah.
This is not a good argument, man. When the fuck will psychopathic Israel defenders understand
it, being like, if they wanted to, they could fucking kill even more people. Oh, okay.
Got it. Sick. That's what we're doing. That's what we are looking at the morality
of a situation over, okay? Uh, your honor, I know I killed 40 families, okay? But if
I wanted to, I could have killed 100 families. Guess what? Calling me a serial killer in
this situation is bad faith. Bad faith, I tell you, I could have killed a lot more
and I only chose to kill 40 families. Okay. How dare you, your honor? I say bad faith.
I say the fuck that's not an argument dumbass shut the fuck up
It's also stupid because like okay hitler
Genocideed 12 million 11 million total people. I think that's the full number six million jews
There were six million other jews. So I guess that's not a fucking genocide is an insane argument
If you made that argument, I'd be like you're a holocaust denier, okay
The fuck do you mean and it's not like he did it in one day
It's fine.
But I want to hear, go back to the prompt.
You came in because you disagreed.
Yeah.
You wouldn't vote for Trump unconditionally.
No, no, of course.
I mean, I think as a moral human being that comes from a place of love with strong core
values, I can't just give anyone, you know, carte blanche that no matter what you do,
you're going to have my love and support.
But from, you know, barring anything crazy like the situation that Joe mentioned,
you know, it's pretty much 100%.
and actually I am part of Jewish Voices for Trump,
and I really appreciate all of the things that I did.
Oh, I'm a part of Jewish Voices for Trump.
I was at the seminar that he gave on anti-Semitism,
where he was like,
what the fuck is wrong with you Jews?
I gave you everything about Israel.
That's all you care about.
Everybody knows that Jews have like a bone in their brain
that causes them only to care about Israel and nothing else.
Why the fuck are only 40% of you voting for me?
And I loved it.
As a part of the Jewish Voices for Trump, I loved when he said that.
He is so right to say that.
Things that he's done for the Jewish people and for the state of Israel.
What has he done?
Okay, for the state of Israel, yes.
What has he done for the Jewish people?
A Trump supporter went into a synagogue in Pennsylvania and killed 13 Jews.
Okay?
He was a Trump supporter who had now decided he was out flanking Trump.
He was like, still operating on Trumpian attitudes, by the way.
He was like unlimited immigration, Jews are causing this.
And honestly, I fucking hate it.
And Donald Trump is not doing enough about it.
So I'm going to take matters of our hands.
That's what he said.
We know that's what he said because he wrote about it on gab, which is still a website
that functions.
I don't know how, which is gab for those of you who don't remember is basically
what Twitter is now.
But it was, you know, back then Twitter was too liberal.
So they were like, we need a place to put all the Nazis in one area.
Okay.
wrote about it he was like yeah Jews are bringing Jews are bringing unlimited
amounts of immigrants into the country so I'm gonna go kill them that's what he
said okay huh wonderful thing that Donald Trump did for the Jews or who could
forget when Donald Trump did that other wonderful thing for the Jews when Nazis
marched on the fucking streets of Charlottesville and said Jews will not
replace us and said blood and soil and fucking swung their swastika flags around. And then
Donald Trump turned around and said there were very fine people on the side of the Nazis too.
I mean, calm down. Okay. Hold up now. Was that was that a good thing that Trump did for the Jews?
Like in terms of things that Donald Trump did domestically for the Jewish demographic,
like, not exactly great. Okay. Obviously if we're talking about working class Jews, same
principle Donald Trump was dog shit for working class Americans across the board, including
working class Jews, you know, um, if we're talking about like anti-Semitism specifically,
his fan base fucking love that shit. So the idea that like the idea that Donald Trump
did a lot for American Jews without talking about Israel is a really silly thing.
Seems like seems to me like Americans don't really American Jews don't really give a shit about Israel all that much
I mean there are definitely some who do this person included
But it's far from like the number one priority for American Jews because guess what they don't live in fucking Israel
They live in America shut the fuck up
Okay, goddamn
It's so stupid
All as well so the next prompt is Harris beat Trump in the debate will be agreeers. Please step forward
He can never openly support Jewish people or Israel. His supporters would crucify him.
You're wrong. His most anti-Semitic supporters that aren't Nazis, that resemble the exact
same opinions of Nazis also happen to be evangelical Christians. They love Israel. They don't love
Jews. They hate Jews, but they love Israel. There's a theological justification for it.
I'm not going to get into it right now, but make no mistake. Donald Trump loves
Israel literally more popular in Israel than Benjamin Netanyahu and more popular in
Israel than he is here in the United States of America. That is a fact. A fact that he even
recognized at the anti-Semitism conference as a matter of fact. Let's continue.
We're all looking at you. I'm happy to see you join us.
I am. Unfortunately, when I watched the debate, you know, a lot of Republicans were saying
that Trump was going to completely obliterate Kamala Harris. And I was one of those people,
but I'm the kind of person I got to be factual and honest. I can't lie to myself.
Let's get the obvios.
We're always got the Trump hat on and he's somehow more rational than all the other
Trump supporters.
He's somehow more rational than all the other Trump supporters.
How is that even possible?
He is out of the way.
It was a little bit bogus against Trump with one versus three.
The only fact check.
Trump, they didn't really fact check common as much as I think they should have.
But we don't have the fact check when we're telling facts.
And basically the only time that they did fact check was we don't murder babies
after nine months and Haitians aren't eating dogs in Ohio.
What?
I don't think evangelicals hate Jews.
That's just not true.
Brother, brother, okay, let me tell you something, okay?
If your fucking religious justifications for the maintenance of Israel being given
to the chosen sons of God ends up in that story with all of the Jews burning in eternal
Hellfire then I don't think you give a fuck about Jews at all.
Okay?
Like, what do you mean?
Dude, evangelical Christians that have a religious justification for maintaining Israel as a Jews
don't burn in Christianity?
Yes, they do!
Jews that will not convert to evangelical Christianity when the rapture comes around
when Jesus Christ is fighting Megiddo, or fighting Satan's armies in Megiddo,
The ones, the Jews, that don't convert to evangelical Christianity will absolutely burn
in eternal damnation and hellfire, just like the rest of us non-believers, okay?
Brother, evangelical Christians think Catholics are gonna burn in hell.
What the fuck are you talking about?
That's not specific to all Jews though, that's everyone?
What are you saying?
You're agreeing with me?
The hate isn't for Jews, it's just ignorance.
Yeah, okay.
Imagine an American Christian having any meaningful level of religious literacy. No, of course not.
No, dude, you don't understand. They're equal opportunity haters, not just Jews. I don't
think it stems from anti-Semitism, though. Listen, anti-Semitism is pretty widely shared
in general. The notion that like Jews are somehow a monolithic force, they're an outsider
that they like control the media, they control powerful institutions and they all operate
with the same fucking interest that interest happens to be Israel in this circumstance.
But in general, like total and utter domination, a lot of Americans, not just evangelical Christians,
also maintain these beliefs.
The reason why I find it funny with evangelicals in particular is because they are so pro-Israel,
but then at the end of that story, all the Jews die.
I think that's hilarious that they're like, oh yeah, we love Israel and Israel. Hi, brother
But also they're all gonna die and burn and burn and hell if they don't convert to Christianity
But then beyond that
I've heard I've seen like I know
How evangelicals operate in general, especially in the fucking deep south where they're segregated where they're not exactly around
Jewish people in general where they like will somehow
simultaneously believed that like, you know, Jews are the chosen sons of God, but
also they're magic money people who might have horns and tails. Like it's just
being pro-Israel does not automatically make you not an anti-Semite. As a
matter of fact, more anti-Semites are pro-Israel, okay? That's true, though.
That's true for sure. Okay, I don't think you meant like Jews are magic
money people with horns. That's not what you were saying. That's true for sure too.
Okay. Anyway, like the greatest example I will always use is Pastor John Hagee, a very
famous televangelist who Israel loves. Okay. He was literally at the pro-Israel rally
in DC. John Hagee famously said Holocaust was good because it led to the creation
of Israel. Okay. He also said Hitler was Jewish and that he, he did the Holocaust
so that they could create Israel.
So, you know, not exactly a guy who I think is,
I don't know, even remotely considered a pro-Jewish man.
Overall, he is pro-Israel, however.
He's very pro-Israel, so Israel loves him.
Israeli envoys love him,
but not necessarily pro-Jew if you catch my drift, okay?
Well, Kamala Haver's perpetuated the myth
that Donald Trump said there are five people
on both sides, even though Politico came out and said that this is missing a lot of context.
Do you need to see the video?
When Trump said they're up on people on both sides, he was talking about two kinds of people.
One, were historians who wanted to keep the Robert E. Lee statue in place.
Yikes, this streamer, what?
So untrue, how does anyone watch this?
Law, a guy who was in Step foot in Israel, spewing such things?
So untrue, Hassan?
Wait, imagine speaking for the majority of Jews, though.
of all, I don't give a fuck about speaking for the majority of anything. I'm just speaking
for humanity and what my moral position is on any issue. Okay. I'm anti genocide across
the board. Sorry. If that frustrates you. But also nothing I said about pastor John Hagey
was untrue. I wasn't even talking about Jews. I was talking about evangelical Christians.
You said get owned. What? Okay. You might be a little stupid to understand words that
coming out of my mouth. It's okay though. We'll catch up with you in a little bit when your mind reboots.
And the other group were people who wanted to tear the statue down.
So the Antifa, the left wing individuals, and the historians. These were the two groups of people
he initially were talking about. Now the neo-Nazis and the white supremacists and the hooligans who
came to interrupt. This was an outside group. To be fair using a televangelist is kind of
bad faith. That's fucking crazy to say. Using a televangelist is an example of bad faith.
this person commands the fucking will of thousands. Are you kidding me? He was invited to speak at the
pro-Israel rally in Washington DC. That is an insane thing. He's one of the leaders. What are we talking
about? What the fuck? And that's just one example I just used. There are many others.
Did you just, what's the argument here? Former believers by seminary student here,
that's not entirely true using a televangelist as an example is bad faith. You're right. The famously
not famous televangelist. I didn't even just say like an evangelical pastor with a small congregation.
I used a very specific, very famous televangelist for a very specific reason. And you're in here
making the argument that televangelists are not, especially this one in particular, are not
famous or influential what the fuck that's crazy who came to Charlottesville to
stir up trouble so when people say that they are I just really have to stop
when Donald Trump is referring to them as historians when we're talking about
people who chant the Jews chatter said the founder of Christians United for
Israel the founder for Christians United for Israel the largest pro-Israel
group in the United States of America by donations is actually an insignificant small being in
the grand scheme of things. Just a small guy, you know, just your local pastor, dude. He's
just got some crazy ideas. Like what is happening, dude? Then Trump is not representative of
the Republican party. He's just a small bean TV guy, you know, what the fuck? Who can
Can I use as an example, if not that guy, he is literally the guy.
That's crazy, man.
We'll not replace us.
And neo-Nazi chants that were used in World War II, in the public of Charlottesville.
What it seems like is historians that were sympathetic to keeping the statues in public
areas.
And we're talking about a statue of Robert E. Lee, a civil war general.
But even the historians that you're referencing, if they were actual historians, once you
want those types of statues in something like a museum or somewhere where people can
and learn the historical context, not in a public audience.
Talk about what those historians did.
They enslaved your people.
I think we've covered just so you know,
I think we've covered this part.
Remember the prompt is, I think,
that there is no need for you to talk about the prompt.
Yes, to be honest, I want to extend a,
just a mad, I have mad respect.
Absolutely.
For anybody here, any Trump supporter
who will stand here in this room
and say anything in support of the guy
who gave that debate performance.
Literally speaking as a Filipino person who, for years,
we have a play named Dog Eaters on us.
It was dog eating and othering of meats were used
to other us and to make us feel like some other kind of
different dehumanizing thing because we're eating
people's pets and now they're putting it on Haitians
and now there's bomb threats in Ohio
because of this ridiculous thing that he spewed
because he-
W-onk though, A-one-yapper, yeah, he loves Yavin.
Got triggered because Kamala talked about
how people were walking out of his crowds
because he's bored and tired and senile.
And the main reason why I am sitting down
is because Donald Trump took too much bait.
I think that that kind of performance
was okay against Biden.
And if you guys know,
that's a lot of the things he said against Kamala,
he said against Biden about the abortion,
the baby being killed after it's born.
He never should have said that.
about a lot of the points that he made,
he made against Biden and he did it against Kamala too.
But the thing is Biden literally just fell apart
and quote unquote died on stage what we saw last time
and that's why they switched them out with Kamala.
So I guess Trump kind of,
I was expecting him to change his playbook.
If you have to go after her.
Okay, this video is much better than the other format,
the 20 v one format.
What's hard to go after her record
when she's impeccable, right?
We have the, we have the prosecutor,
an attorney general, a senator and a vice president.
So it was for him to go after her, you know, he can't go after her policy because it's
good.
All he can do is make the same old, she said it herself, the same old playbook and that's
what we saw.
And she totally destroyed him.
She came with facts.
She also, you know, just pointed out how ridiculous the things were that he was saying,
you know, to your point about that, you know, eating dogs and all of that stuff.
I mean, none of it was factual.
It had already been released that none of that stuff is true and he's still
going to pull it.
But I respect you for coming forward.
So we're going to pause here.
We're going to bring in our disagreeers.
So I would say that when I judge, you know,
my kids play sports.
When I judge who won, who didn't won,
I want it to be an even playing field.
And I think it should be a fair contest.
And I know you guys love Kamala Harris.
And you think she has an impeccable record.
Kamala.
Kamala.
But CNN has pronounced it 12, 20 times on record.
We're dealing with that.
We're dealing with that.
If you're just like every other person.
As semantics, you guys, let's not get stuck.
Let's go to policies.
Let's cheer them on.
Let's cheer them on.
So...
Let's go past this and hear the rest of this.
Yeah.
So I think that there have been a lot of things that have been fact-checked by social media
influencers and commentators like myself on Ms. Harris's policies and what she said
as well.
And there are certainly things that could have been fact-checked on that end as
well.
Like what?
And I want to say to you, I too am an immigrant.
My family escaped on the back of a pickup truck from Iran in 1985 while being shot at
by border police.
I spent a night in the Pakistani deserts we were caught and we had to escape and it took
six months for my family to come here not speaking English.
We left everything behind, started from nothing, living in a two bedroom apartment with eight
people in it.
The reason why I say that is, you know, America is the greatest country on earth
and to erase its history instead of learning from it is what they did in China.
unburdened what has been, unburdened what has been, and looking forward to what can be is
literally what was used by people trying to get rid of the old and bringing in the new
world like China, Communist Party.
Well the people being affected by those statues are telling you what it's doing to us.
Correct.
Iranians are the Cubans of the Middle Region.
This is a fucking Hassanabi position.
I've been, I've said this, I've said this so much.
not all Iranians obviously, but Iranians living in Los Angeles, okay?
Prodigyans are so fucking Cuban diaspora coded, it is crazy, okay?
Shawriders, especially.
He's the one that's adjusted to go to the same.
Just for telling you a lot about the statues, but we do want to hear about the debate.
Let's just switch back to the debate.
If we want to talk about the statue again later, we totally can.
I don't think either one of them won the debate.
Who are the Cubans of Asia?
The Cubans of Asia are older Vietnamese
and the Cubans of Africa, I don't know.
I don't know who would be like the closest
to the Cuban diaspora among Africans.
But I think like, I think the older Vietnam population
very, very right-wing.
I wouldn't even say,
I wouldn't even say like South Koreans
that same degree, honestly. Why South Africans? Okay, that doesn't count, dude. Come on. Come
on. Egyptians? Eh, not really. Why South Africans doesn't count? That's like, come on,
that's just like British by a different name. Okay, calm down. Well, like not, no, not
even Nigerians, because like Nigerians fresh off the boat, maybe, but Nigerians like
two years into living in America and recognizing that like Americans make no distinction between
you and other black people in the same way that you thought there was a distinction that existed.
Once that, once that goes away, it's like, it's, it's over. No, and as you should have
think, they're better than us other black people. No, I don't, I don't know, maybe,
I don't think so. You'd be surprised the whole black American versus African discussions. No,
I'm very familiar with the black American versus african discussions. I am very very familiar with it
It's just that that kind of goes away after you're like first or second police stop
In the United States of America because then you realize like oh shit. Okay, never mind. Anyway, let's move on from
black people business I
Feel like the only people that really lost were other than them was the American people just I mean
I imagine we can all kind of agree on that nothing was really said nothing was really, you know
We're gonna do this we're gonna do that but nothing ever actually gets done
I think as far as the debate goes Trump dropped the ball on a couple things the Medicare or Medicaid
Conversation or question that that he received he kind of I can't believe there are Iranians or transporters. Oh my god
my friend
My friend
Let me tell you something
You have never been to Los Angeles, my friend. Okay.
Saying I can't believe there are Iranians or Trump supporters is like saying I can't believe there are Cubans who are Trump supporters.
It's the opposite where you're like, I can't believe there are Iranians that are not Trump supporters.
Bro, he destroyed us. What do you mean? Yeah.
Yeah, because you're Iranian. I don't think they see it the same way.
I dropped the ball on that one, but other than that, it was just a bunch of zingers and
my faggin force and cutting your hand up to make sure that the other side knows that you're
judging the, you know, I'm judging you, Trump, like it was, it was more show than anything.
Kamala handles herself.
I'll give you that.
Like Kamala did a lot better than a lot of people thought she did.
I think that's why a lot of people are saying she won because we all, you know, she
did better than Biden.
And anybody that did better than Biden, it's like, hell yeah, we have a winner, guys, but
at the end of the day, that was a low bar.
Yeah.
We're going to reset.
Hey, before we go any further, we want to take a moment to say thanks so much to Straight
Arrow News for...
They probably did it because they...
They allowed people...
From Trump.
From the debate.
They allowed criminals, many, many millions of criminals.
They allowed terrorists.
They allowed common street criminals.
They allowed people to come in drug dealers, to come into our country, and then now in the
United States.
And I think they probably did it because they think they're going to get votes, but it's
not worth it.
If you agree.
Someone is asking what the Cuban and Iranian thing is.
Yes.
Cubans in America, Cubans in diaspora are very reactionary, very right wing, okay?
Especially older populations.
So because of like the famous nature of not only amnesty, but also America's relationship
with Cuba in general and the ways in which the Cuban diaspora
has formed its political opinions in the United
States of America, specifically Florida,
has we just use it as a catch-all term for reactionary
diaspora as opposed to the interests of the people
back home in the host nation.
This does not mean every single Cuban
that is in the United States of America is like that,
But most people understand like the broad majority of the Cuban diaspora living in Florida,
especially older Cubans are very right-wing.
With that quote, step forward.
Oh, it's just us.
Okay.
From that quote, at least from what I got personally, was he was talking about the illegal immigrants that aren't being background checked, that are being let in.
personally to me my grandparents and my mother are immigrants they're not from
here and they came here and they worked very hard to get their residency in their
citizenship and they went through all the bells and whistles to get through here.
Which is why I think everyone else should also suffer a similar fate.
And so they're letting people in I mean it's affected so many of my friends
that live towards the border of San Diego, places like that.
So many Republicans attitudes are basically like, I had to go through so much chemotherapy to get rid of cancer in my body. Okay.
And that's why I am against cancer vaccines.
Like it's just that it's the and she didn't even have to go through any of that.
I'm just saying like she's carrying the resentment of the older generation with her.
And it's very weird.
Like, if you have overcome great odds, not her, because she's a fetus, but her parents,
it makes no sense that you would want others to be subjected to the same thing.
I just don't understand it.
It literally does not make sense to me at all.
This is one of the core principles of, like, reactionary conservatives that I just cannot
even understand a little bit.
I just don't get it.
And it's the same principle across the board. Like it literally is, it's just such a boomer
mindset where it's like, nah, I had to pick myself up on my bootstraps. So you have to
too. It's like, no man, shut the fuck up. The whole port, the whole point is supposed
to be, the whole point is supposed to be, we ease it for everybody else. Like, you
know, what the fuck's wrong with you? It's so, it's so annoying when I hear this
about fucking student loan debt. Like I not only paid my own student loans, I
I paid my mother's student loans,
I paid my brother's student loans,
and I don't think anyone should have to pay student loans.
They should get student loan debt relief, okay?
I will never understand people that are like,
well, I paid it, so you have to as well.
It's like, fuck you, man.
You're just a selfish piece of shit.
It is purely a policy surrounding resentment,
jealousy, entitlement, nothing else.
They are letting people in that are criminals
that are not being checked well,
or at least not being checked at all.
And I think that's what he meant.
He kind of has a really sassy way of saying things
or kind of just, sometimes I feel like
he doesn't use, he's not very eloquent at times.
And so he says things and people are like,
well, what does that mean?
That doesn't make any sense.
That's at least the context that I'm getting it from.
That's at least what I can see
and that's at least what's been prevented, so.
I also feel that way.
I feel like a lot of the people
that are just being willingly led in here
They're passing multiple other countries just to get to America to claim asylum in America
I don't blame anybody for coming here at all like if I was born outside of this country
I would want to do the exact same thing we but that's why we have to kill the people that are coming here now I
Understand why they want to get here
But walk them us as Americans all of us
hit the lottery when we got born here and if you've come here legally through
the process. My issue is like his position is more understandable than hers
because at least like she somehow understands how long and arduous and
complex the process of like getting citizenship is. He does it so that's
why he can so callously be like yeah come through the Lego mains bitch it's
like, bro, what are you talking about? You have no idea how fucking hard this process
is. Okay, shut up. It is deliberately difficult. Also, many of the people that you're talking
shit about are legal asylum seekers, which means they are actually following the process.
They are following the protocol. You have to step foot inside of the United States,
speak asylum, shut the fuck up. But for a lot of these people, the distinction
between a legal Haitian migrant and an illegal migrant is nothing. It's just, they realize
that it's paperwork and they just don't want them to have the paperwork. That's it.
People that are just being let in, oh they claim to sign them, here's a, you know, a
bank card, here's a cell phone, and by the way show up to this court date and three
years promise, right? Like pinky promise, and then they just let them go. They send
them to whatever city Chicago, New York. The people that actually live there are the ones
in Colorado where I'm from. We are the ones that are actually seeing this stuff and being
affected by it, whether it's people driving on the road without license plates, insurance,
don't know how to drive because they're coming from whatever country they're coming
from. But every single person that comes in here illegally is being counted in
the census when you all of the things that he brought forward was about like
Haitian migrants and every single one of those Haitian migrants are like
legally here they are TPS recipients some of which got the TPS from Donald
Trump mind you count these people in the census that's gonna give people more
house seats I'm pretty sure and I don't want to misspeak hopefully a
little truth bubble pop up at the bottom but you're getting house seats
they're getting electoral votes these things matter when it comes to the
election that's the only thing I care about I don't care wait when the Census
Bureau describes unauthorized immigrants to the residents are included with the
resident population the resident population is used for wait is he mad
that like people that are currently on US soil are counted in the census as
people that are currently living on US soil like they can't vote dog I mean we
do the same for fucking criminals too that are in prison. They can't vote. They don't
have the same fucking level of, uh, they don't have the same, they don't have the same rights
as you do. But of course they have to be fucking counted because obviously they're
still people. And that means they're going to be driving on the roads. They're going
to be taking, uh, you know, they're going to be using the public transit. You need
to make budget decisions. Okay. And they're still human beings that are living on US also,
of course, they're going to be counted. What the fuck? Not only that, but they also pay
taxes. But that's besides the point. Like, what do you mean? You don't want them, you
don't want them to be counted? Like, okay, so what the fuck then? What happens when
there is need for more allocation of resources, because there's more people living there?
Sorry, we don't want to do that. We can't do that. We just decided you're not a human being
If people are coming here
Legally and want to live a better life want to have that American dream that being said like you're taking away things
Taxpayer money that all of us as taxpayers are paying that should be going to Americans should be going to veterans
veterans are you know it make up I want to say less than eight percent of the
American population and less than 2% of Americans join the military and volunteer to join our
military forces and the fact that we have homeless vets, good, it should be even lower
than that. Okay, it should be 0%. And it will if by the time I'm done with it, it
will be should not be a thing. And we're just giving this money to these people that
Yeah, dude. I can't believe there's homeless veterans, dude. Yeah, I know that should give you I don't know an
understanding that
That should that should cause you to understand that America doesn't give a fuck about veterans dog
But no these guys only use veterans as a counterpoint when talking about immigrants is so fucking tired and old and shitty
Come here illegally don't play by the same rules
I see a lot of nods. Do you believe that this is an intentional strategy? You talked about like the sense how it affects the sense
Oh, yeah, like absolutely. I mean over 60 million people have come into this country illegally during this administration and immigration
Actually is the thing that catapulted me from Democrat to Republican. I'm from Chicago
And as you know, we have the migrant crisis thousands upon thousands. We're talking
50,000 illegal immigrants that just hit our city and I actually did vote for Biden
now whisper and say that, you know, I'm not that proud to admit it now, but I remember
when they first turned a school in my area into a migrant shelter and it was the Wexner
Worth Elementary School and they also turned South Shore High School into a migrant shelter
as well. When they did that, I remember the protest, I remember going to these community
meetings that they have about how they're going to explain to you how immigrants
need help. And I remember sitting there as a person who voted for Biden. And I'm
just listening to these people. They're all German, you know, city council members,
immigrant groups. They come to lecture us black folk on the south side of Chicago and they talk to
us like we're stupid. You know these people are from Venezuela. They speak Spanish. They live in
poverty. They need help and that's why this facility in your neighborhood is being turned
into a migrant shelter. So it's very frustrating that the Democrats is sort of lecturing this
condescending tone that they use against you. I don't need to be lectured to about what people
need black bro you need to be lectured about a lot of shit okay like i'm gonna be real you need to be
you need to go back to school okay everyone does god damn people in chicago need help
veterans as you were saying earlier they need help poor people need help there is no clear
indication that these people don't give up talk about veterans then the fact that they only bring
up veterans when talking about like immigrants dude. It's just so obvious like if you gave
a fuck about veterans you'd be talking about it in other circumstances but you don't because
you don't care. We have a lot of problems in our own community and I respect people
and I understand the passion and ambition of behind people who come to this country
but to explain and lecture to me why I have to be quiet and accept it that's
never gonna happen. I know that we have more to say but I'm gonna bring in
that disagree us for time.
So I might let some of the people on my side
even talk about buying shift to the right
when it comes to immigration, more deportations
in the Trump administration.
That's not something that I'm particularly passionate about.
I don't really believe in removing people
who are fleeing political persecution
or looking for a better life for their families.
What I would say to the people that are worried
about vetting or worried about who necessarily
is in this country is increase the pathway to citizenship.
Not only should we be able to vet who these people are,
will be able to add them and actually fully understand what they're here for, what their
motivations are, and if you want to garner those voters, you've got to capitulate to those
voters.
And I think Republicans can do that.
A lot of Hispanics that come from there have conservative values.
You shouldn't just write them off as people that can't drive or people that are not
talented.
No, I'm not saying they're not talented.
I'm just saying.
Joe, I just want to ask you a real quick, I want to ask you a real quick question.
Can you please define what immigrants who are seeking asylum means?
So I'm political persecution, like you were saying, or somebody's going to murder them
or whatever it is.
Okay.
I get, like, it could be 100% true.
I'm not, like, these things.
So are these things, I'm just asking others.
But you're assuming everyone who's coming here is, like, literally being shot at like
my family was, or actually, like, we say video.
Okay.
Yeah.
I was fleeing political persecution. No one else. Okay? Only me.
Well, what about your family? Let's talk about your family.
We're actually talking about the bipartisan bill that the Republicans had a chance to do.
So Joe, try to answer your question. Why are you asking?
I'm asking it because I have a lot of people in the Filipino-American Kingdom who seek asylum during the Marcos regime.
I have a lot of different immigrant families, probably like yours in Iran, who's looked
for asylum during the controversies and the tumult in Iran.
And Trump, in his initial presidential election, wanted to ban Muslims from coming to America.
It was not a Muslim ban.
It was not a Muslim ban.
It was a travel ban.
It was a travel ban.
You're right.
It was Muslim-shithole countries, which is what he said.
Just going off the point, he said, are they shithole countries?
Is Haiti or Somalia?
Are you really going to classify them?
I'm just asking the term third world is offensive to me, bro, because you're talking up. Yes. Yes,
you're talking you're talking about a subhuman who are as developed as okay. I'm gonna be honest with
you. I don't think the Trump guys I'm gonna go out on a limb here and I'm gonna assume
that the Trump guys don't know the origination of the term third world in terms of like its
alignment or lack of alignment during the cold war. I'm going to go out on a limb and
assume that they use it as a catchall term for a shithole country. Okay. Like, so he's
not wrong. I mean, third world, third world or developing nations is more politically
appropriate terminology for a catchall term is used by Trump supporters in a very condescending
way. Um, and yeah, third world, how about you care more about the top of the hour? Okay,
third world. I said third world. Well, there's a three minute outbreak coming for you right
now. All right. A three minute one. Fuck you. Yeah, the third world at the top of the
hour. Oh, Jesus Christ. Here's the three minute outbreak. Now, if you no longer
want to see those ads, I need you to subscribe for $5. Well, $4 and 20 cents are for
free with a rich bribe is a treatment abrac now
as we are so they're the third country
in the right some of these people have given you some of the biggest scientific
innovation in the world so if you're stoning women after they've been
raped in the bribe let me know
what the fuck why do you go to stoning women what's going on and it
happens now i want to close the loop on
eric's point eric what are you saying that
It's U.S.'s responsibility to take people in who are seeking asylum.
I'm saying that Ronald Reagan said that the United States was a shining city on a hill,
right?
That's the basis of your guys' philosophy.
I'm saying that this has been and has been forever a country of immigrants.
Why can't they stop at the other countries they stopped at to get here?
That is my only point.
Why can't they just go back to where they came from?
It's so funny to be like, to tell a Guatemalan, why don't you stop in Mexico?
It's like, dog, there's motherfuckers in Mexico coming into America.
That's why the Guatemalan is not stopping in Mexico.
What the fuck do you mean?
I'm like, always find it very funny when people are just like, I don't get it.
The Guatemalans should just stop at Honduras and move not even an inch further, okay?
What the fuck?
What a stupid argument. When Trump was advancing this argument, wait, Moldova-Maliga is chirping
at me, hold on, where is it? Fuck, I missed it. Where is it? Why is it not showing up?
Okay, Moldova-Maliga said, so more immigrants want to come to the United States, but it's
also a shithole country by your estimation at the same time. And the answer is yes.
The more immigrants want to come here, but the U.S. is a failing nation at the same time.
That's what Trump is saying. It's true though. The problem is Trump is the reason, or at least
one of the many reasons as to why the United States is a failing nation, okay? He's an
accelerant on that correct argument that he's making.
Meanwhile, March is here, so that three minute outbreak that I just served you is
the last one I'm going to be doing today because I have to do the podcast. We're
filming the fear and podcast folks so I have to go and do that right now I
apologize for everybody but I'll be back tomorrow no Nick is gonna be
unfortunately too late he's late he's late and it's his fault but I will be
doing Nick stream tomorrow and then I'll be doing my stream with Nick
afterwards and we'll figure out some stuff it'll be fun and that's all I
got for now I love you all and I'll see you tomorrow okay bye bye
