Transcript [00:03] All right, folks. Shalom and welcome. [00:05] Ishi Fleer broadcasting from Israel with [00:08] the help of God. The war has begun. [00:12] There was a lot of speculation, a lot of [00:14] tension, a lot of preparation, but [00:17] indeed the moment has arrived and the [00:20] war has begun. And the war has begun [00:22] with uh an utter bang. Uh as immediately [00:28] uh the war the war began, we were [00:31] notified of the incredible news that [00:35] Kame Na, [00:37] the supreme leader of Iran had been [00:40] taken out in one of the first strikes. [00:43] Really incredible. And so uh we we were [00:47] in a new Middle East. No doubt about it. [00:50] A new moment. No doubt about it. Uh and [00:53] when did this happen? When did it all [00:55] happen? It happened as Jews in Israel [00:58] were reading the Torah portion [01:04] uh of Zakur where we remember what the [01:06] Amalachites did to Israel in preparation [01:08] for Purim, the holiday of Purim. Oh, an [01:11] incredible, how should we say, [01:13] coincidence, an incredible moment where [01:16] where in Israel we're reading about what [01:19] the Amalocites did to us and at that [01:22] very moment were striking against the [01:25] Amalocites, the Persian Amalocites uh of [01:27] today. Kamei is dead. Kamei is dead. But [01:32] the war is on. Okay. And today the [01:35] Israeli news is actually fixated on the [01:38] fact that at least eight Israelis have [01:40] been killed today uh when a missile [01:43] maybe a hypersonic missile has struck [01:48] uh an Israeli [01:50] building or two uh in the B sheish area [01:55] and that there was a there was a a safe [01:58] room there. a direct impact on that safe [02:00] room has killed at least confirmed eight [02:04] including many children. So that is the [02:06] situation in Israel. Uh we are going [02:11] live right now. I want to thank [02:12] everybody who is here and I want to hear [02:15] where you're from. Send me your [02:16] blessings. That's how we usually start [02:18] the show. Hello from Brisbane, [02:19] Australia. Shalom. Uh hello from Canada. [02:22] Stan, shalom and blessings. And I want [02:25] to hear where you're from. Uh, give me a [02:27] shalom. [02:29] We want to hear from you. That's number [02:30] one. And number two, at this Oh, and and [02:34] somebody just wrote this. This is very [02:35] important. The former president of Iran, [02:38] Ahmed Ahad, has also been taken out, [02:41] which is huge because he was the epitome [02:44] of evil. And I'll never forget when he [02:47] was out there uh on a stand talking [02:50] about a world without Zionism. And now [02:52] we have a world without Akma. [02:55] Uh, and we're having shaloms from [02:57] everybody, including Ireland and Long [02:59] Island and California and Mississippi [03:03] and Texas and Louisiana and Switzerland, [03:08] burn and Germany and South Africa, [03:11] Niagara Falls, uh, Tulsa, Norway, uh, [03:16] places from all over the world. You know [03:18] what? For a second here, I'm just going [03:19] to stick up the, uh, comment thing so [03:22] you could see it for yourself. [03:24] All right. And people are writing from [03:26] all over the world right now and it's [03:28] awesome to be with you. So, thank you [03:30] very much uh for being with us in this [03:32] tough moment, this moment where Israel [03:34] is fighting and this moment where all of [03:37] the energies that were uh uh gathering, [03:41] all of the storm that was gathering uh [03:43] was uh has come to fruition. And it was [03:46] not the United States that started the [03:48] attack. It was rather Israel. Israel [03:50] struck its enemies. Israel killed the [03:55] head of the snake, the the head of the [03:57] octopus, uh, Kamei. And it's an [04:00] incredible moment. I want to remind you [04:03] that if you want to support Israel at [04:05] this moment, if you want to support the [04:07] show, uh, then please super chat. You [04:10] can super chat through the various [04:12] channels. Do a super chat. It makes a [04:14] big difference. [04:16] Uh, and, uh, support us as we fight for [04:19] Israel by going to fight forisrael.org. [04:21] org or buy me a coffee.com/shai. [04:24] You can like, subscribe, and comment. [04:26] And we need your support. And Israel [04:28] needs your support. Uh right now, let's [04:31] just look at the Israeli news what [04:33] they're playing right now. Uh I have I24 [04:36] on here, and you could see that they're [04:38] talking about nine murdered in Beameish [04:43] as a rocket hit uh a house in Beamesh. [04:48] Uh and it says right there that they're [04:50] continuing the efforts to rescue people [04:53] uh from this safe room. Okay. Uh people [04:57] are still stuck there potentially. 28 [04:59] injured, two uh critically injured, two [05:02] moderately injured, 24 lightly injured, [05:06] but nine murdered. And this is important [05:09] because if you would have uh come on the [05:11] show, if you would have if I would have [05:13] been live uh just this morning, I would [05:16] have told you, you know, it's all about [05:18] the uh uh killing of the evil [05:23] and and everybody was celebrating the [05:26] death of Kamei. And there's a lot to [05:28] celebrate, no doubt, but at the same [05:30] time, uh the war continues and has to be [05:34] taken seriously. And as I always say on [05:37] this show, my friends, I always say we [05:39] have to take our enemies seriously. We [05:42] can never take them lightly. We have to [05:44] take them quite seriously. Uh we have a [05:47] lot of guests hopefully coming to see [05:49] you. [05:51] Uh and let's also hear uh from people uh [05:54] that are on the ground in various ways. [05:58] Let me send uh let me send more invite [06:01] guests uh invites to people right now. [06:04] um including Iranian folks. [06:09] I'm just writing to them right now. And [06:11] of course, you know, when we talk about [06:13] all this stuff, the other thing is we [06:15] have to of course pray to the God of [06:17] Israel. And we're all asking you for [06:19] your prayers and for your uh your your [06:22] strength right now. We all need it. Uh [06:25] yes, there are questions if if the uh [06:28] the Arab countries have been hit. No [06:30] doubt. Uh uh Iran has been striking at [06:34] the UAE, at Bahrain, at Qatar, [06:39] uh at this at Saudi Arabia, basically [06:42] hitting all of the other Arab the the [06:45] Muslim countries. Uh so that is that is [06:48] definitely what's happening. No doubt [06:49] about it. Uh let me show you let me show [06:51] you just a few videos about what's [06:53] happening right now [06:55] so you can get a sense uh of the of the [06:59] the tension. For example, uh here is um [07:03] Dubai, a strike on Dubai. Check this [07:06] out. [07:14] >> Look at that. That's Dubai. [07:47] So, that was a wild strike on on Dubai. [07:50] That goes to show you that it's not just [07:52] Israel that's being hit uh but rather uh [07:55] uh the Arab countries around Iran as [07:58] well. Why is Iran striking the Arab [08:01] countries? Well, it's probably striking [08:03] them because they're trying to strike at [08:05] America and American bases there. Ralph [08:07] sends a blessing and he says, "My flight [08:09] to Israel today was my flight to Israel [08:11] was canled as expected. What happens now [08:13] is more important. Stay safe and finish [08:15] the job." Thank you very much, Ralph. [08:17] and thank you very much for your super [08:19] chat and your support. Thank you very [08:21] much and we hope to see you here soon in [08:24] the land of Israel. Okay, so uh Dubai [08:28] was hit and you could see what the [08:29] rockets are like. And I got to tell you [08:31] that last night [08:34] uh my kids and I were standing on our [08:36] porch watching the the attacks on Israel [08:40] and watching these rockets and then and [08:42] then our rockets coming to meet them to [08:44] to to to strike them down before they [08:47] hurt Jews and Israelis. There were many [08:49] many many missiles heading headed us. [08:51] And today one of those missiles sadly [08:55] was able to strike uh at an Israeli [08:58] target. And right now it's reported that [09:00] there are nine dead. Uh nine have been [09:02] confirmed dead. Uh and they're talking [09:05] about the the efforts to continue to [09:07] rescue people. Uh but what's kind of [09:09] been uh right now uh put on the on on [09:13] the second level uh is the the death of [09:17] both Ahmed Nad, former president, 40 [09:20] other important highlevel Iranian [09:22] officials uh and uh and and military uh [09:27] military commanders and generals. But [09:29] the most important is Ali Kamei. [09:32] He's gone. Kamay is gone. And that is [09:35] just an amazing thing. And uh at the [09:38] same time that that Kamei is gone, [09:42] we have uh we have Iranians themselves [09:46] celebrating. They are celebrating right [09:49] now. Let's watch this. Iranians [09:51] celebrate and and there's so many videos [09:53] of this. Check this out. [10:01] These are Iranians actually uh in I [10:04] think the a UK community who came to [10:07] join the Jewish community and to [10:08] celebrate together with them. [10:23] Okay. So what we're watching right now [10:25] is Iranian people celebrating. Why [10:28] wouldn't they celebrate? The man who [10:30] murdered their society, [10:33] murdered people in the streets who came [10:35] to protest and said, "We don't want your [10:37] rulers. You we don't want your [10:38] dictatorship anymore." Uh uh he out he [10:43] set his IRGC [10:45] uh revolutionary guard forces against [10:48] the Iranian people in the streets. He [10:50] murdered his own people in horrific [10:52] fashion. And now he's dead. He is dead. [10:56] And that's right. There's every reason [10:57] to celebrate. And yet at the same time [11:00] to remember that the war is far from [11:02] over. In fact, I think the war has [11:03] really begun. And we'll see how long it [11:05] lasts. Uh but uh in their death grip, uh [11:09] they continue to hurt people and kill [11:11] Jews and Israelis striking at Dubai, [11:14] Bahrain, uh Saudi Arabia and uh and [11:17] other US targets there. the US has [11:20] entered the war as well. I want to [11:22] understand exactly what the US is doing. [11:24] I'm not quite clear on it yet. Uh it I [11:27] think they're keeping it somewhat kind [11:29] of quiet. I'm trying to understand that. [11:30] I also want to thank uh Elazar uh my um [11:36] uh my producer today was helping us out [11:38] in the comment section. Uh and thank you [11:40] very much to you Alazar. Thank you very [11:42] much to uh PTT7000 [11:46] who is supporting us. No words [11:48] necessary, just a blessing. Awesome. [11:50] Thank you very much for that super chat [11:52] and thank you for supporting us as we're [11:54] fighting the fight here uh in the land [11:56] of Israel. So, we saw uh the Dubai [11:59] strike. We saw Iranians celebrating in [12:01] the streets and there's also many other [12:04] important videos uh of uh I want to show [12:07] you a video which is like a very modern [12:09] thing. Here's Prime Minister Netanyahu [12:12] with the usage of AI speaking in the [12:17] Persian language asking the Iranian [12:19] people saying this time go out to the [12:22] streets, overthrow that regime. This is [12:24] the big opportunity. Check this out. [12:36] foreignch. [13:42] That's Prime Minister Netanyahu [13:45] calling on the Iranian people [13:48] to get out to the streets [13:52] and to overthrow that regime and to do [13:55] it now. This is the golden moment. And [13:59] in the end, [14:01] nobody can liberate another people. They [14:03] have to liberate themselves. Israel is [14:05] doing everything that it can to maximize [14:08] the opportunity of liberation and so are [14:11] the Americans. [14:14] And so, uh, Netanyahu is saying, "Hey, [14:17] people of Iran, this is the golden [14:19] moment. This is the golden moment." I [14:22] got to tell you that it's hard to, um, [14:26] to receive that golden moment because it [14:28] was so shocking. The war started, they [14:30] started bombing. I didn't think that [14:32] they would kill [14:34] on the first day that he'd be gone, but [14:37] indeed, he went down on the first day. [14:40] And you have to respect the fact that he [14:42] was ready uh for that fight uh and ready [14:45] to die and there's no question about [14:47] that. Uh thank you to uh Ananor I don't [14:53] know an M manor. May the God of Israel [14:55] show himself mighty to the nations. [14:58] Beautiful. Love that. That's exactly [15:01] right. That's exactly I love that. May [15:03] the God of Israel show himself mighty to [15:05] the nations. I could keep that up all [15:07] day. I love that. [15:09] And thank you to Gabriel says Israel [15:13] here. O Israel God the Lord is our God. [15:16] The Lord is one. And the meaning of that [15:18] phrase uh that is such a central phrase [15:20] in Judaism is that today uh the Lord is [15:23] our God. Uh but in the future the Lord [15:26] will be one to all. All right. We have [15:29] with us our first guest uh whose name is [15:33] Ununice Sadayani. Uh he is a political [15:37] broadcaster, investigative journalist, [15:38] analyst, born in Iran, now based in the [15:41] UK, an outspoken critic of the Islamic [15:44] Republic uh with uh 200,000 followers [15:47] alto together. So a real influencer and [15:49] it's an honor and a pleasure to have uh [15:51] Ununice right now with us as we're uh [15:55] talking about the fight in Iran. [15:56] Ununice, thank you so much for joining [15:58] us. [15:59] >> Thanks for having me. Um it's a [16:01] pleasure. It's the second time I'm on [16:03] your show now, so it's great. [16:04] >> It is. It is the second time and yet uh [16:07] right now it's a very different time. Uh [16:10] before you were on my show that was when [16:13] uh when Kamei still ruled Iran and still [16:17] and and I think uh you know was shooting [16:20] people in the streets. [16:22] >> Yeah. [16:22] >> For protesting and now we're talking [16:24] about a man who's gone uh whose regime [16:28] is in tatters but still killing people [16:30] and still attacking Israel. Give me your [16:32] report. give me your perception of how [16:34] you see things right now. [16:36] >> So, first of all, as an Iranian, I'm [16:38] just very happy from the bottom of my [16:41] heart that Ali K is dead. He has been [16:44] killing Iranian people for the last 47 [16:47] years. He has been torturing and hanging [16:51] and just killing women, all kinds of [16:54] different people that went against these [16:56] powers. So from on that front, I just [16:58] want to say thank you Israel, thank you [17:01] America, thank you IDF, thank you Mr. [17:05] Benjamin Netanyahu, thank you President [17:07] Trump uh for standing by us and I really [17:10] I really salute Israelis especially for [17:12] standing by Iranian people because I [17:15] think they're the ones that understand [17:16] our pain. A lot of these countries like [17:19] Pakistan and a lot of like Muslim [17:21] majority countries, they don't [17:22] understand our pain. they don't [17:24] understand that uh what happens when [17:26] Islamic extremism takes over your [17:28] country. So the second point I would [17:30] like to make is that this is the [17:33] beginning of the end. I've said this [17:34] even as far back as the 12- day war, but [17:38] this is officially the beginning of the [17:40] end. Why do I say that? Because now the [17:42] Islamic Republic has [17:45] decided who their predecessors are going [17:47] to be for free layers. So they have for [17:50] example they knew how many is going to [17:51] die. They picked his replacement and [17:53] then they picked his replacement's [17:54] replacement. So we have to go through [17:57] the layers, okay, one by one. But that [17:59] doesn't really matter because I think [18:01] there's a huge psychological blow for [18:03] the Islamic Republic. And no matter how [18:05] many replacements they bring in, the [18:07] same as Hamas and Hezbollah, I think [18:09] psychologically when you kill Isma Han [18:11] or when you kill Nashah, that [18:13] organization is pretty much done. But we [18:15] shouldn't we shouldn't [18:18] >> keep going [18:19] >> uh be um we shouldn't lose our focus. We [18:22] should be vigilant in our approach [18:24] because a variety of things can go wrong [18:28] now. Okay. Things could go wrong. We [18:31] know Iranians need to be united under [18:33] the Persian and the Sun flag. So we have [18:36] a transitional government come and take [18:37] place. So uh you know Iran doesn't get [18:40] separated into five or six different [18:42] parts. And I've mentioned this in our [18:44] last interview. So, um, I'm really [18:46] hoping for the best. My message to [18:48] Iranian people is be united, be [18:50] together, and trust Israelis and America [18:52] to get the job done. [18:54] >> And what are you hearing? Are you [18:55] hearing anything from from the ground? [18:58] Are you hearing uh Iranian people [18:59] talking? Are you hearing from Iran? I'm [19:01] talking about like is there is there a [19:03] sense now? There's a lot of videos [19:04] coming out of celebrations in the [19:06] streets of Tahran. There's a lot of [19:08] that, but but are you hearing anything [19:10] like how are people feeling? And the [19:12] biggest question of them all, which is [19:14] are the police, the army, the IRGC, are [19:17] they shooting at people or are they [19:18] backing down right now? [19:21] >> So, every single Iranian person I know [19:24] is celebrating right now. So, don't [19:26] listen to Western commentators, people [19:28] like Mamani and Andrew Tate and Candace [19:31] Owens and Tucker Carlson and Jane Kuger [19:34] and the rest of the imbecile that say, [19:36] "Oh, nobody wants this war. Every single [19:38] Persian person I know wants this war." [19:41] And me as a Persian, I'm happy from the [19:43] bottom of my heart that harmony is dead [19:46] and this war has started. And I wouldn't [19:47] even call it a war. I would call it a [19:49] rescue operation or a peace operation [19:52] because we've been in a war for the last [19:54] 47 years. This is the ending of a war, [19:56] not a beginning of a new war. So don't [19:59] get it confused. Um yes I have seen the [20:01] videos of Iranians uh celebrating in the [20:04] streets dancing even in going in the [20:06] balconies and celebrating and playing [20:08] music and saying death to harmony death [20:10] to the Islamic Republic. So I have seen [20:12] all of that even in London there was a [20:15] huge celebration in the streets of [20:17] London with Iranian people just so [20:20] Iranians I would say confidently 90% of [20:22] the Iranians are happy that this has [20:24] happened unless you're with the Islamic [20:27] Republic. So uh the thing is in in Iran [20:30] right now is that the internet is not [20:33] completely blacked out but it is it's [20:36] very hard to get in contact. Uh they [20:40] keep jamming the signals [20:42] >> and [20:44] but the latest news I have is that you [20:46] know even Donald Trump said there hasn't [20:48] been there has been some uprising in [20:50] certain provinces in certain places but [20:52] people are following the instructions of [20:54] Donald Trump. They're saying, you know, [20:56] Donald Trump said stay in your homes for [20:58] now because, you know, it's going to be [20:59] dangerous because, you know, the [21:00] bombardments of the IDF has has started [21:02] of, you know, all the military bases, [21:03] IRGC, we don't want innocent people to [21:06] die. I'm sure when the operation is [21:08] done, Donald Trump and Benjamin [21:10] Netanyahu are going to be the first ones [21:11] to tell us, come out and protest. [21:15] >> Um, let's watch. [21:17] >> First thing, uh, here's a super chat [21:20] from William who says, "Much respect, [21:21] you for what you do, for what you do in [21:23] his land." I think he is doing great [21:26] things in the land of Alam, land of [21:28] Israel. May your voices, may your voice [21:30] stay strong. Thank you very much, [21:32] William. And blessings to you. And thank [21:34] you so much for all people who are [21:35] sending those blessings right now. [21:36] There's a lot of people out there [21:37] excited. They understand this great [21:38] moment. By the way, I want to tell you [21:40] something, Ununice. I've been watching [21:42] some of the, you know, some of the like [21:44] not such pro-Israel media and stuff. [21:46] Everybody's trying to play it down. [21:47] They're trying to play it down. They [21:48] don't understand this moment. They don't [21:51] understand this moment. This is a moment [21:53] that that that that the Middle East is [21:57] changing forever. First thing, Israel [21:59] sent out its biggest military airborne [22:02] strike of all time, 200 planes. They [22:04] dropped 30 tons uh on uh on Kamei. It's [22:09] the first time they killed a head of [22:10] state, you know, and and and and we know [22:14] what this is. We know that this head of [22:15] state is also the guy who's behind [22:19] Kamasis. [22:21] We know that they're behind the Amyab [22:23] bombings in Buenos Cyrus. We know that [22:24] they're behind so much death and [22:26] destruction. This guy has such a facade [22:28] with his nice turban with his sweet [22:30] glasses. Such a kind of peaceful dude. [22:32] You know, he seemed like such an like a [22:34] grandfatherly old guy, but he was a [22:35] cold-blooded murderer and and we [22:37] understand that. And so, like, this is a [22:39] great moment. On top of that, Ununice, I [22:41] don't know if you know this, but for us, [22:43] we're just about to celebrate Purim. [22:45] Purim, you know, you know, 2500 years [22:48] ago, uh, we had this this issue with [22:51] with anti-Israel folks in Persia. Uh, [22:54] and, uh, and and and finally, Hmon, who [22:57] was the number one like Nazi, was hanged [22:59] and his sons were hanged and the the the [23:01] Nazis were defeated. And it says that [23:03] the city of Shushan [23:05] was joyous, Jews and non-Jews. And so, [23:08] that's exactly what we're seeing right [23:09] now. Let's watch together a little video [23:12] uh, of res. Go ahead. Go ahead. [23:14] >> Purim, you know, Purim and we have a [23:17] celebration coming nor which is going to [23:19] be like two weeks, three weeks in Persia [23:21] which marks the first day of the [23:23] calendar. So that you know Purim and Nor [23:27] are actually very similar. It's about [23:28] new beginnings, fresh beginnings because [23:30] you know spring is around the corner. [23:32] Spring usually starts on the 20th of [23:34] March. So that's when we celebrate our [23:36] new year in Persian culture. So it's [23:38] quite interesting. We have quite similar [23:39] cultures as well. [23:40] >> What's the name of that holiday? Norus, [23:43] Norus, [23:44] >> Norus. Okay, good. I'm I love to to [23:47] learn and hear even on the show. Of [23:48] course, we get a chance. Check out um I [23:50] want to see your comments on Resa [23:52] Palavi. He's making states statements [23:54] right now. Uh he is the uh [23:58] >> how do we call it the the potential [24:00] king? Uh he's the son of the sha. He's [24:03] >> the leader of the transitional [24:04] government, I would say. [24:05] >> Very good. Okay, I like that very much. [24:06] Here's uh here's statements of the [24:08] leader of the transitional government, [24:10] Resa Palavi. [24:12] >> Be clear about how a free Iran will act [24:16] towards its neighbors and the world [24:18] after the fall of this regime. [24:22] In security and foreign policy, Iran's [24:26] nuclear military program will end. [24:30] Support for terrorist groups will seize [24:32] immediately. [24:34] A free Iran will work with regional and [24:37] global partners to confront terrorism in [24:41] diplomacy. [24:42] Relations with the United States will be [24:44] normalized and our friendship with [24:47] America and her people will be restored. [24:51] The state of Israel will be recognized [24:54] immediately. [24:56] We will pursue the expansion of the [24:58] Abraham Accords into the Cyrus Accords, [25:01] bringing together a free Iran, Israel, [25:05] and the Arab world. You know, Palavi a [25:09] lot of times mentions Cyrus. It's like a [25:11] really big thing for him, you know. Uh [25:13] and and and he had this statement which [25:15] I loved which he's like, "Yeah, you [25:16] know, 25 centuries ago, we helped the [25:18] Jews with building that second temple." [25:20] I love that, you know, but but but can [25:22] you help me with one thing which I truly [25:24] don't understand? I I I I understand [25:27] that there's a lot of ethnic groups, [25:29] Beluchi and others in Iran. Who does he [25:33] speak for? Do other people do these [25:34] various ethnic groups feel a kinship to [25:37] him? Is he an ethnic Persian? Do people [25:40] relate to him that are not part of his [25:41] ethnicities or are there are there [25:44] divisions based on those lines? [25:46] Um I think at this moment in time [25:48] majority of Iranians support him [25:50] although we always going to have [25:51] separatist elements from some groups [25:54] such as the Kurds such as the Baluch [25:57] such as farce Persian Turks whoever we [25:59] have you know many different ethnicities [26:00] in Iran but at this moment in time [26:02] everyone's united around him and it's [26:04] because we don't really have anyone else [26:06] he's a known character he's the son of [26:08] the last king so people know him and [26:10] people trust him and he's a pure [26:11] character because you know he has been [26:13] against the Islamic Republic all his [26:15] And also you know they saw what his [26:17] father did [26:18] >> and I think his father was the first one [26:20] that actually truly introduced democracy [26:23] in the modern Iran. So I think for the [26:25] transitional period he's the best option [26:28] that we have. Yes, majority of people [26:31] are screaming his name. He's a very [26:32] popular character. Does that mean he's [26:34] perfect or does that mean do I think he [26:36] makes a you know phenomenal leader? That [26:38] remains to be seen. And I think that [26:40] remains to be seen in the referendum [26:43] we're going to have maybe in the next [26:44] two or three years. But what we are [26:45] going to go through now, as I said, it's [26:47] going to be a very transitional period [26:48] for us. We're going to go through some [26:50] rocky times. Okay? We have to be honest [26:52] about it. We might have some [26:54] instability. We might have some chaos. [26:56] You know, you know, it's not easy to get [26:58] rid of a dictator after 47 years and, [27:00] you know, expect smooth sailing, [27:02] >> right? So, I think he needs to manage [27:04] that those two or three years, set up a [27:06] referendum, uh, and you know, if he puts [27:08] himself off for the ballot, which I'm [27:10] not sure he will, uh, he could do that [27:13] and then we'll see whether we want a [27:15] monarchy or a republic, whatever we want [27:16] is going to be resided in the next two [27:18] to three years. [27:19] >> Wow. You know, like a like an ancient [27:21] Persian state, an ancient Persian people [27:24] being reborn a new right now. like like [27:26] going through a moment in their history [27:29] where like this is a chance to be reborn [27:30] as a young nation as you said like 47 [27:33] years of of jihadism, terrorism, [27:35] dictatorship and now to be reborn a new. [27:38] It's it's really you know it's it's it's [27:41] you have to have a great imagination. [27:42] You have to have a great hope. You have [27:44] you have to pray and and and you have to [27:46] get together. You have to try to set [27:47] aside differences and you got to hope [27:49] that the people that have the guns uh [27:51] will not start shooting, you know, and [27:52] and continue the the death rattle [27:55] because it is a death rattle from here [27:56] on end. It's just a matter of time now. [27:58] It's a death rattle. Uh so um I'd love [28:01] to see uh uh um Iran reborn and reborn [28:06] in friendship with Israel and reborn as [28:08] a actually a pillar of stability in the [28:10] Middle East and not a destructive [28:13] element of the Middle East. So it's [28:15] really it's really something. It's [28:16] really something to to see. Uh and it's [28:18] a moment of liberation. I want to tell [28:20] you at the same time as we're talking, I [28:22] got to put this up on the screen. The [28:24] war continues. Uh nine uh dead in Israel [28:28] uh in a in in a in a maybe hypersonic [28:31] missile that has struck directly at um [28:34] uh at at a house. So, it's a serious [28:37] business. It's it's a war. It's not a [28:38] joke. And yes, Kmeni is dead, but yes, [28:42] the death rattle is still there. the [28:43] rockets are still flying out and and [28:45] we're still being challenged. So, it's [28:47] really really um you know, it's [28:49] something it's something to definitely [28:50] that we have to pray for and and ask for [28:53] uh for God's mercy upon us. [28:57] >> Wow. I didn't know that. I didn't know [28:58] that some people died in Israel today. [29:00] Well, [29:00] >> yes. Yes. Only a few hours ago, a [29:03] hypersonic missile hit a house in B she [29:07] was crowded inside uh a safe room, you [29:10] know, a defended room, but it it took a [29:12] direct missile. looks like it exploded [29:14] on them and uh and it was not able to [29:16] withstand that direct hit. So uh so it [29:19] was yeah so the war the war is very much [29:21] on you know just this morning we were [29:23] all about about about uh about the death [29:26] of By the way also another person who [29:28] died who I had a personal a more [29:31] personal feelings about was was Ahmed [29:33] Nad [29:34] >> I I really remember him on that stage [29:39] with that podium that said a world [29:40] without Zionism and he really wanted he [29:43] wanted to kill the Jews he wanted to [29:44] destroy the Jews and the fact that he's [29:46] done [29:47] >> gives me you That's it's that's that's [29:48] that's that's the healthy justice of uh [29:51] of revenge in this case. What do you [29:52] think about that? Tell me a little bit [29:54] about him. [29:54] >> Isn't it so funny that all these people [29:56] were chanting for 47 years, we're going [29:59] to destroy Israel. We're going to get [30:01] rid of Zionism. And then on the first [30:03] day of war, they all died. So, it just [30:06] shows how incompetent they are. Ahmed [30:09] came to the United Nation and said, "We [30:11] will delete Israel. We will wipe Israel [30:14] off the map. the first nuclear bomb we [30:16] make, we're going to drop it there. [30:17] >> And then after that, they said, "No, no, [30:19] no. We don't want a nuclear bomb." So, [30:20] which one is it? I thought you're going [30:21] to disappear. Well, you know, look, it's [30:23] all huff and puff. It's all [30:25] misdirection. It's all misinformation [30:27] with the Islamic Republic. That's why I [30:29] call them a paper tiger. [30:30] >> You know, all they can do and all they [30:32] have been doing is killing their own [30:34] people for the last 47 years. Every time [30:37] they're in conflict with an external [30:38] force, they get big slap. We saw it [30:40] during the 12- day war and now we saw it [30:43] again. You deal with bullies by showing [30:47] strength, peace through strength. You [30:49] know, this whole negotiation with [30:50] terrorists what Obama done was a [30:52] catastrophic failure. And I think that [30:57] they're done. Look, they're done. Look, [30:58] they say dictatorships, they kill a lot [31:00] in the beginning and they kill a lot at [31:02] the end. Okay? So you know the Islamic [31:05] Republic came into power by killing [31:07] people, hanging people and you know [31:10] basically making people escape from the [31:12] country because no competent person, no [31:14] person with a conscience can live in the [31:17] Islamic Republic cannot work under the [31:19] Islamic Republic. So now it's their last [31:21] breaths. They're trying to kill as many [31:23] people as they can. They're trying to [31:24] attack the neighboring countries, you [31:26] know, because they know they're not. [31:27] They know it's like, you know, like a [31:29] psychopath murderer getting caught in a [31:30] room surrounded by weapons and he's [31:32] trying to wield his knife and trying to [31:34] stab everyone because he knows at some [31:35] point he's going to get shot and killed. [31:37] So that's exactly what the Islamic [31:40] Republic is going through. I I um my [31:43] prayers are with the Iranian people. My [31:44] prayers are with Israeli people. My [31:47] prayers are with the people that are in [31:48] the region that could be attacked by [31:50] this genocidal [31:52] uh tyrannical regime and I think it's [31:56] going to go on for two or three weeks uh [31:57] this war. Um and we should be just [32:01] vigilant. Be vigilant. Be uh well be [32:04] optimistic. It's you know they say don't [32:06] kick a can down the road. Kill [32:09] >> kill dragons at their layer. Like don't [32:11] make don't allow problems to become [32:13] bigger and bigger. Finish the problem. [32:15] cut it from the roots and hopefully we [32:17] can have a great purse. [32:20] >> Inshallah bizm with the help of God [32:22] Ununice. Thank you so much. Ununice is a [32:25] political broadcaster invest in [32:26] investigative journalist analyst born in [32:28] Iran now based in the UK an outspoken [32:32] critic of the Islamic Republic.

[33:06] >> All right, that was awesome to hear uh [33:08] from Ununice. Um [33:11] um let's see. Um [33:15] one second. [33:17] All right. All right. I am doing my best [33:18] here to manage uh you uh a great show [33:22] for you guys, showing you the truth from [33:23] what's happening in Israel. Here's I24 [33:26] News. Um they're talking right now about [33:29] the attack on the Iranian regime. And [33:33] really the main attacks have been on the [33:37] regime's uh uh both missile abilities [33:41] and their leadership. Uh we have what [33:44] right now with us somebody uh who's a [33:47] great expert [33:49] uh in the Middle East politics of what's [33:50] going on. It's Jonathan Kenrikus. You've [33:53] seen him on other media. He's a senior [33:54] fellow at FDD, Federation for Defense of [33:57] Democracies focused on Middle East on [33:58] the Middle East. He served in the IDF [34:00] for 24 years as a combat commander at [34:02] Lebanon and Gaza Strip. Uh and also as a [34:05] military diplomat, foreign relations [34:06] expert, an international spokesman. Uh [34:09] he retired as lieutenant colonel. Uh and [34:12] he was at the UN and provided military [34:14] and strategic analysis for UN [34:16] peacekeeping forces. Uh you've seen him [34:18] everywhere because he's one of Israel's [34:20] finest spokesman. Uh let's get him on. [34:24] Jonathan Kenrikus, thank you so much for [34:26] being with us. [34:30] I lost you for a second. I can't hear [34:32] you. [34:32] >> Jonathan, uh, you are on. Thank you so [34:35] much for being with us. Can you hear us? [34:39] >> Jonathan, can you hear us? [34:41] >> We can hear you. [34:42] >> We hear you. Good. We hear you. Great. [34:44] We hear you, Jonathan. We hear you. All [34:47] right, let's try. [34:49] >> Yes, sir. Yes, I can. Yes. Yes, I can [34:51] hear you. [34:52] >> Okay. I'm uh lip reading but I'll tell [34:55] you a little bit of how I see the [34:57] current situation. I listened into the [34:59] uh previous expert that you had on and [35:02] uh just allow me to you know uh first of [35:05] all I really appreciate what you do is [35:07] super important to get our message out [35:10] there. You know I just came off channel [35:12] 12 news in Hebrew, one of the biggest [35:16] stations in Israel. We're discussing the [35:17] issue of misinformation and how [35:20] international media now is focusing on [35:24] the legality of US and Israeli strikes [35:27] against Iran and on various niche [35:30] incidents in Iran with the obvious [35:34] attempt to try to create a false image [35:37] as if what Israel and the US are doing [35:39] against the Iranian regime isn't [35:41] legitimate and trying to portray an [35:43] image as if Israel is striking [35:47] civilians and causing undue civilian [35:49] harm. I find it absurd. You know, it's [35:51] it's just laughable what we're seeing [35:55] just now. You know, I'm sure you covered [35:57] it, but we have at least eight murdered [35:59] Israeli civilians as a result of a the [36:03] impact explosion of an Iranian missile [36:05] in Beamesh, not far from Jerusalem. That [36:08] adds up to two additional Israeli [36:10] civilians, two women that were murdered [36:12] yesterday by Iranian missiles. That's at [36:15] least 10 Israeli civilians murdered by [36:18] the regime. And what what we're seeing [36:22] is that the Iranian regime is lashing [36:24] out and firing missiles indiscriminately [36:28] all across the region. Hundreds of [36:30] missiles fired at Israel already. I'll [36:33] say high number of dozens of missiles [36:35] fired at Israel already. But you know [36:37] towards the United Arab Emirates [36:41] more than 150 missiles fired by Iran, at [36:45] the UAE, at Kuwait, at Saudi Arabia. And [36:48] there are casualties in all of these [36:50] countries. And just like in Israel, the [36:53] Iranians are firing at civilian [36:56] locations, hotels, airports, facilities [37:00] where there's large amount of civilians [37:02] there. This is what the Iranian regime [37:05] is doing. It is wantton aggression. It [37:07] is a regime that has absolutely no [37:10] respect for human life, for decency. And [37:13] yet we see a lot of the international [37:15] media pontificating and pundits and [37:18] people and the usual anti-Israeli crowd [37:21] pontificating about what Israel is [37:23] doing. I want to discuss the legality of [37:26] Israeli actions against Iran and put [37:28] things into historic perspective. The [37:30] Iranian regime has an outspoken official [37:34] clear objective to annihilate the Jewish [37:37] state. This is a goal of the regime. [37:40] This isn't something it's not a talking [37:42] point. It isn't something that they just [37:43] say for, you know, uh domestic political [37:46] purposes. This is a goal of the regime [37:50] and they have been pursuing this goal [37:53] with all of the assets and the [37:55] capabilities of the Iranian [37:57] establishment. They have tried to build [37:59] nuclear weapons. They have been building [38:01] hundreds and thousands of ballistic [38:03] missiles. They have armed, funded and [38:06] equipped terror organizations around [38:08] Israel. They have directed terror [38:11] attacks against Israel for the last 30 [38:14] or even 40 years with thousands of [38:17] Israelis that have either been killed or [38:20] wounded as an indirect result of Iranian [38:22] aggression. Iran has fired ballistic [38:25] missiles at Israel. Every enemy that [38:27] Israel faces, we see Iranian [38:30] fingerprints. And if this isn't enough, [38:33] then you know in a square called [38:36] Fallstine Square, they used to have a [38:39] countdown watch that was counting down [38:42] from the year 2040. That was the target [38:45] date per the Iranian regime for the [38:48] destruction of the Jewish state. So if [38:50] that isn't enough for to qualify for [38:53] Israel to be able to take action against [38:56] this murderous regime and say we're not [38:59] going to have it anymore, we're not [39:00] going to sit here and allow the Iranian [39:03] regime to stockpile weapons to rebuild [39:05] their nuclear weapons program to [39:07] mass-produce ballistic missiles with [39:09] longer and longer range and with bigger [39:12] and bigger payload. We're not going to [39:13] sit here and wait. My only regret is [39:16] that we're doing it approximately 30 [39:18] years too late. Should have been done [39:20] long time ago and I can only uh regret [39:23] that. So to all of the you know the [39:25] chorus of uh Israel critics who are it's [39:29] almost Pavlovian you know they it's just [39:31] an in instinct to criticize whatever [39:34] Israel is doing. My response to them is [39:36] that what Israel is doing is lawful, [39:40] just, exactly what a sovereign country [39:42] has the absolute responsibility to do. [39:45] And the only regret is that if we're [39:47] doing it too late and most countries [39:49] eventually will thank us for doing it, [39:52] maybe they're not thanking us now. Now [39:54] comes the challenge. Isai, I'm not a [39:56] good lip reader, so speak slowly so I [39:59] can try to understand what you're saying [40:00] because I still can't hear you. [40:02] >> Jonathan, can you hear me now? [40:06] Yes, I can. [40:09] >> Jonathan, this is a big step to shoot [40:13] and kill a head of state. This is the [40:16] first time in all of Israel's targeted [40:18] strikes to strike at a head of state. [40:21] That's like a big deal. That's like [40:23] saying, "Your leadership is not [40:26] legitimate, and I will now take the step [40:28] of of removing a country's leadership." [40:31] That's a very bold move for Israel. that [40:34] that's a different Israel than we knew [40:35] in the past. That's a that's a I call [40:37] this liberation nation. It's a much [40:40] bigger uh uh it's a much bigger thing [40:42] than just defending itself. It's saying [40:45] something about this region. Comment [40:47] about that a little bit to me. What it's [40:49] what it's like for Israel to to to go [40:51] out on this limb and to eliminate a head [40:54] of state. [40:58] >> Yeah. I I I think you know he's the [41:00] longest serving he was the longest [41:02] serving dictator Ali Hamei I think 37 or [41:06] 38 years as the very cruel leader of the [41:11] Islamic regime the oppressor of the [41:13] Iranian people and um I would you know [41:16] downscale him a bit and I'd say that the [41:19] Iranian regime was basically a terror [41:22] organization that had a nation state [41:26] harnessed to its capabilities. I see it [41:29] in that sense. Yes, leader, state, head [41:32] of state definitely, but I look at him [41:35] as an arc terrorist. He was the guy who [41:38] came up with the plan to annihilate [41:40] Israel. He was the driving force, the [41:43] political driving force behind building [41:45] the ring of fire of terrorist [41:48] organizations around Israel, [41:51] Islamic Jihad, Hamas, Houthis, etc. Uh [41:54] so in that sense it's it's it's a pretty [41:57] it's it's like taking out Hassanah it's [42:00] like taking out [42:02] it's like taking out other terrorists [42:04] that we've done in the past and it won't [42:07] be the first and I don't think it'll be [42:08] the last time that we do it. What I [42:10] think is interesting and this is a [42:12] signal to the region to the various [42:15] strong men of the region and I'm talking [42:18] north and I'm talking south and various [42:20] other locations is that well Israel is [42:23] now willing to actually perhaps shake [42:28] free of the bonds and the limitations [42:31] that have been limiting our ability to [42:33] to defend ourselves and we're willing to [42:36] reassess if you are uh driving a country [42:41] uh on a direct collision course against [42:43] Israel, you are not immune from the [42:46] responsibility and from the uh [42:49] consequences that uh that must follow. [42:51] And I think that's a strong message here [42:53] to despots, strong men, tyrants of the [42:56] region. And I think it's a very [42:58] important one. I'm not saying and uh and [43:01] insinuating that this is what Israel [43:02] will do in the future. And I don't know [43:05] that we have plans to take out other but [43:08] I think it's a very important message [43:10] for terrorists whether they are uh just [43:13] heads of terror organizations or [43:15] actually lead nation states to have that [43:18] as part of their calculations when they [43:20] think and and and ponder their strategy [43:23] towards [43:26] Prime Minister Netanyahu Jonathan I hope [43:28] you can hear me Prime Minister Netanyahu [43:30] he's been talking about Iran I have I [43:33] heard him speaking about Iran [43:34] 25 years ago at Apac talking about the [43:38] dangers of a nuclear Iran, talking about [43:40] this thing like this is a big moment for [43:42] him and he's surrounded by a team a [43:45] nationalist government people like [43:47] Israel Katz uh as defense minister the [43:51] Trump administration Marco Rubio Pete [43:54] Hegsth there's like a there's a [43:57] constellation here there's a there was [43:59] an opportunity here and it seemed to me [44:01] that that he knew inside that this [44:04] opportunity cannot be missed. Then there [44:06] was this big amassing of an armada of an [44:08] American armada. Tell me a little bit [44:10] about Netanyahu Trump, the the amassing [44:13] of these forces, uh the the effort to [44:16] negotiate, you know, I in good faith, [44:18] I'm guessing, but the failure of those [44:21] negotiations. give me a little bit of an [44:22] insight into the the people uh that made [44:26] this decision and the the the green [44:29] light uh that led to this attack and the [44:32] death of Kamei. [44:37] >> Yeah, I think uh it's many years of hard [44:39] work, many years of persistence. [44:42] I work at FDD, the foundation for [44:44] defense of democracies. my the the [44:47] superior the the seniors in my [44:49] organization like Mark Dubovitz and [44:50] Cliff May have been speaking about uh [44:54] researching petitioning against and [44:56] lobbying against the Islamic regime for [45:01] a long that time for more than 20 years. [45:04] So it's a very big moment for anybody in [45:07] the world who values freedom, who [45:10] cherishes uh human life, who cherishes [45:12] the rule of law, civil liberties, [45:15] democracy. Um it it it's a great moment [45:18] because for the first time in a very [45:20] long time, an evil oppressive regime is [45:24] being held accountable for its horrible [45:26] actions. [45:28] I am very grateful for the alliance that [45:31] we have with the US. I am very grateful [45:33] for the leadership of President Trump. I [45:35] think this would not have happened [45:37] without him, his team, his uh team of [45:42] senior cabinet members and uh the people [45:45] that you mentioned, Secretary of State [45:48] Rubio, Secretary of War Hegset, and many [45:51] of the other people surrounding the [45:53] president, I think, are exactly the type [45:55] of American patriots that think, okay, [45:58] what we're going to do here is work [46:00] together with the strongest and the most [46:02] serious ally that we have in the region, [46:05] which is Israel, no doubt. And together, [46:07] we're going to do some heavy lifting, [46:09] and we're going to serve American [46:11] purposes. We're going to do good for the [46:13] US by actually working with the [46:15] Israelis. The Israelis know how to [46:17] fight. The Israelis put their uh money [46:20] where their mouth is, and we're going to [46:22] do it together. And this is going to be [46:23] good for the US in the long run. It's [46:26] going to be good for the US because [46:28] everybody in the world in China, in [46:31] Russia, and everybody and all all other [46:33] places, they're watching and they are [46:35] taking notice. They're taking notice of [46:37] this American leadership. They are [46:40] attentive to the fact that when the US [46:42] president lays down a deadline, you [46:45] better adapt to it and you better honor [46:47] that deadline or else there are [46:49] consequences. the world is now seeing [46:51] that and that is something that I think [46:54] has um has had a bit of uh depreciating [46:58] value over the years and I'm happy to [47:00] see that restore. The US is working [47:02] together with Israel to flex it flex its [47:05] muscles in the region. And I think when [47:08] this operation is done, the US will be [47:11] in the most dominant strategic position [47:15] globally to pursue the national [47:18] interests of the US. Thanks to the fact [47:21] that the US is partnering up with Israel [47:23] and demolishing a a an old and bit enemy [47:28] of the US, the Islamic Republic of Iran. [47:30] So this is a it's a great moment of [47:32] cooperation. We're doing good for the [47:35] region. We are doing good for Israel, [47:37] for the US, for the Iranian people. You [47:40] know, I won't be hypocritical and say [47:42] that this, you know, we're risking the [47:44] lives of Israeli pilots to free the [47:46] Iranian people. We aren't and that would [47:48] be dishonest to say, but I'm happy to [47:50] say that we are do that this has the [47:53] added er effect of also giving the [47:56] Iranian people the best opportunity that [47:58] they will ever have to actually reclaim [48:00] their country. But this is America first [48:03] from an American perspective. Israel is [48:06] very happy that this is happening. And I [48:09] can say that I'm uh happy how you know [48:11] the the level of intimacy and absolute [48:16] 100% transparent cooperation planning [48:20] between US and Israeli armed forces. [48:23] Never seen anything like it. It is [48:25] unprecedented. I think the results show [48:28] just how close and how well coordinated [48:30] we are. and I hope that we'll be able to [48:33] continue to operate at this worldclass [48:36] level of military uh operations. [48:41] Jonathan Kenrikus is a senior fellow at [48:43] FDD, Federation for Defense of [48:45] Democracies, focused on Middle East. Uh [48:47] he served in the idea for 24 years as a [48:50] military diplomat as well. Uh in in the [48:52] field of battle first, then a military [48:54] diplomat uh finishing retiring as [48:56] lieutenant colonel and continuing now [48:58] the fight on the battlefront of the [49:00] narrative warfare. really one of the [49:03] most um eloquent and strong speakers [49:05] that we have out there uh to defend [49:07] Israel's rights and to defend our rights [49:09] to prosecute this war uh against [49:13] terrorism, against regional jihadism uh [49:16] against the people who have called for [49:18] so many years death to America, death to [49:20] Israel, and now they're the ones to go. [49:22] I was particularly happy, by the way, to [49:24] also see the death of Ahmed Nad. Did [49:26] that not feel satisfying to see the guy [49:28] who stood on stage there and said and [49:31] said for so long you know the a world [49:33] without Zionism to see a world without a [49:35] nad. Wasn't that a special thing a [49:37] special bonus there? [49:42] Yeah. You know in he in Arabic we say [49:47] every dog has his day and Ahmed was [49:50] really a purveyor of hatred of violence [49:53] of bigotry. He was an extremely cruel [49:56] oppressor of the Iranian people. He [49:59] really was a driving force behind [50:01] regional terrorism of the Iranian regime [50:05] in the Middle East. And he was an enemy [50:07] of the Jewish people. He was an enemy of [50:09] freedom. He was a bad and evil man. He [50:13] was also he made it easy in in a certain [50:16] sense to explain what the Iranian regime [50:18] was about because he was honest and [50:20] truthful. He hates Israel. he hates Jews [50:23] and he wanted to destroy the Jewish [50:25] state and he was actually, you know, [50:27] blunt enough to stay out in the open and [50:29] we didn't have to read between the [50:31] lines. So, I'm happy that he no longer [50:35] walking among us and that's not good [50:38] message for all of the terrorists. It [50:40] may take us time. It may take us uh [50:42] years. Eventually, when you do uh wrong, [50:46] when you when you try to hurt Israel, [50:48] when you're an enemy of Israel, when [50:50] you're an enemy of the free world, when [50:52] you try to kill Americans, eventually we [50:56] will catch up to you. And I think it's a [50:58] good development that he is no longer [50:59] alive. And of course, poetic justice. He [51:03] wanted to see the undoing of the state [51:05] of Israel. He has now been undone by the [51:08] state of Israel and the US. That's a [51:10] positive thing. [51:12] >> Jonathan Kenriquez, thank you so much [51:13] for being with us. We'll be calling on [51:15] you again in the next few days. God [51:16] bless you. Stay strong out there. Thanks [51:18] for the fight. God bless you. [51:19] >> Thank you. [51:22] >> All right, that was Jonathan Kenrikas [51:24] indeed. Uh Jonathan Kenrikas, one of our [51:27] best fighters out there. Uh a great [51:29] warrior. And speaking of great warriors, [51:31] we have a special guest right now and [51:33] that's none other than Jonathan Pard. uh [51:35] a Jewish hero who uh sat in prison for [51:38] passing vital information to the state [51:41] of Israel uh and a great analyst was an [51:44] anal a naval analyst and continues to be [51:47] an analyst of geopolitics and and [51:50] geostrategic warfare. Jonathan Pard, [51:53] thank you so much for joining us. [51:54] >> It's a pleasure, Yisha. By the way, [51:56] before I forget, I want to say that it's [51:58] a real honor for me, not only to be [52:01] talking to you. You're a friend of mine, [52:03] so I always love the opportunity to talk [52:06] to you, but to uh it's a hard hard [52:09] mission I have now to follow up after uh [52:12] Jonathan Cornriquez. Uh I have nothing [52:15] but the highest regards for him and I [52:18] consider him to be a very gifted warrior [52:21] on perhaps one of the most difficult [52:23] fronts that the state of Israel faces. [52:26] That's the the media front. U we have [52:29] very few allies uh very few people [52:32] willing to listen, very few people [52:33] willing to just tell the truth. So ka [52:37] cavode to him and ka cavode to you for [52:39] having him on your show. [52:41] >> Absolutely. He really is one of the very [52:43] best. Uh, I also subscribe to your feed [52:46] and I love the information that you put [52:48] out. So, you know, I I want to ask you [52:50] some spiritual questions as well, but [52:51] let's get a little picture right now. [52:53] Give me the Jonathan Pard perspective uh [52:56] on the on really the the geostrategic [52:59] uh uh uh chess board out there. What's [53:01] exactly happening? Saturday morning, [53:03] Shabbat morning. It was uh I think 8:45 [53:07] when the or 8:15, I don't remember when [53:10] when the first uh siren sounded. We knew [53:13] that it had begun. I didn't even like [53:15] the news. We knew [53:16] >> reading parad I mean parad [53:20] you know and uh I just said oh this is [53:23] really uh appropriate. No look I've been [53:26] on record as saying that I was opposed [53:28] to the end of the 12-day war because I [53:30] thought it was prematurely ended. Um, [53:34] since that time and until uh, Shabbat, [53:37] I've been complaining and warning people [53:40] that the Iranians were rebuilding. This [53:42] was not a secret. I mean, anybody who [53:44] who read oent o open source intelligence [53:48] would know this. And I just didn't know [53:50] at one point where we were just going to [53:52] say die enough and intervene. Well, now [53:56] we have. [53:58] Um the first minute of this strike was [54:02] extraordinary. [54:04] 40 major leaders both military and [54:08] political of the Iranian uh regime were [54:11] eliminated. This is a a decapitation if [54:14] there ever were one. Uh we may see the [54:18] results of that though now with all this [54:20] crazy shooting going on uh in the Gulf [54:24] now and they hit just recently Cyprus as [54:27] well. Some people asked me today called [54:30] up and said you know [54:31] >> wait wait wait let's clarify that for me [54:33] the the Iranian regime is shooting at [54:36] its Arab neighbors. We know about UAE [54:38] attacks, Bahrain attacks, Saudi attacks [54:41] on Saudi Arabia. Now you're saying [54:43] there's also an attacks on Cyprus as [54:44] well [54:45] >> and Karter. Yeah, they just recently [54:47] fired off two missiles attempting to hit [54:50] uh the British base there. Um some [54:53] people have asked me today um [54:56] whether and by the way they're hitting [54:58] Kuwait now. I just saw on the feed [55:00] they're hitting Kuwait. First of all, [55:03] you know, they said beforehand that if [55:05] they were hit, they would uh amplify the [55:08] attack uh to the region. Okay, they're [55:12] doing it. Other people have asked me [55:14] today, did I think that because we've [55:15] more or less decapitated the [55:17] Revolutionary Guard, um, is there no [55:21] central command? And my my response to [55:24] this is no. I mean, the Iranians are [55:26] professionals. So what they did was they [55:29] provided all of their battery commanders [55:32] with a playbook, a targeting book and [55:35] that in the event uh contact with [55:38] central headquarters was uh cut off or [55:40] lost this is the book you follow. So [55:43] this is the plan, you know, to I mean [55:46] what's amazing is that they hit the UAE [55:50] with hundreds of missiles, hundreds of [55:53] drones, and thank God the the UAE was [55:57] capable of neutralizing most of them [56:00] that were launched at them. Um, but this [56:04] is not stopping. And what they're doing [56:05] is they're making our case for for for [56:08] intervening on our behalf. [56:10] >> But why are they doing it, Jonathan? Why [56:11] is why is Iran not saying to the UAE or [56:16] to to Bahrain or to even Qatar who's a [56:19] jihadist state? Why why would they [56:20] attack them? Just explain to me the [56:22] logic here. I would have thought [56:24] >> Go ahead. [56:24] >> Okay. First of all, the logic is they're [56:27] keeping their word. They said beforehand [56:30] before any bombs were dropped that if [56:33] they were attacked they would uh spread [56:36] this war regionally or be and and or [56:39] beyond if they could. So part of this is [56:42] they have to honor basically the threat [56:46] they made before the war. It's a it's a [56:48] question of credibility going forward. [56:50] The second thing is they feel they may [56:54] have nothing to lose. I think they [56:56] understand very well. They understood it [56:58] before and now they really understand [57:01] the fact that we're going to end them [57:03] one way or the other. We're going to end [57:05] the regime one way or the other. [57:07] >> And so they're flailing. They're going [57:10] to it's like uh Samson I I hate to use [57:13] that example but when he said at the end [57:15] I oh Lord you know let me die in the [57:17] temple of my enemies. Okay fine this is [57:19] what they're doing. They don't [57:21] understand that this is not how you do [57:24] that. Um but they're desperate and [57:28] desperate people do well stupid things [57:31] and this is really stupid. Now as far as [57:33] Kuwait uh Qatar is concerned the [57:35] thinking there is not because of Aluba [57:38] base the US base that's there they [57:41] actually want Qatar to tell the United [57:44] States stop [57:46] >> because they feel that that Qatar you [57:49] know has u and not unreasonably that has [57:52] influence over the um the White House. [57:56] So this isn't going to work though. So [57:59] what they're doing is they're burning [58:00] all their bridges. Uh, one thing that [58:04] I've been asked a lot over the past week [58:08] and it's it's worth mentioning is do we [58:11] understand what the day after is going [58:13] to be? [58:14] >> Right? And and and I just want to [58:15] mention that there are some people who [58:17] are saying even our friends are saying [58:19] listen you've you've yes you've done a [58:21] beautiful thing by getting rid of but [58:24] Iran is not ready. It's not ready to to [58:27] it's going to it's going to sink into [58:29] civil strife. it will not it's not ready [58:33] to have some kind of different kind of [58:35] union. It's been ruled for a very long [58:37] time by dictatorship and therefore it's [58:39] it's going to collapse and it doesn't [58:41] have the it doesn't have the wherewithal [58:43] uh to really be a united nation. So [58:46] you're kind of doing something that [58:47] that's that's quite dangerous uh for the [58:50] region. [58:50] >> Unfortunately, [58:52] we have no choice. We being both the [58:55] United States and Israel, we have no [58:56] choice because the threat level was [58:59] rising to such a level that uh if we [59:02] hadn't intervened now, [59:04] um I I'm afraid what the future would [59:07] have held. Now look, the United States [59:10] has never done nation building very well [59:13] ever since their defeat of Nazi Germany [59:16] and Imperial Japan. And I would I would [59:18] say South Korea as well. Okay. They they [59:22] did good jobs in all of them. All right. [59:26] The problem here is [59:28] that c Iran is going to fly apart. The [59:31] Kurds already this week said they're [59:33] gone. They're going to form a democratic [59:35] government and they will leave and join [59:38] their brothers in Iraq and Syria and [59:40] possibly, God willing, in Turkey. the [59:44] Azeris [59:45] uh have been kept down and discriminated [59:49] against to such a degree that they're [59:51] they seem to be willing to if they can [59:55] join up with their brothers and sisters [59:57] in Azabaijan. The Arabs in the south [60:00] where the oil is produced have long [60:02] dreamt of Arabistan, an independent Arab [60:05] uh state and the Beluchis in the east [60:08] want to go. So, what you're talking [60:09] about is a rump uh Persian state. And [60:13] the problem with that is even if we've [60:16] eliminated all of the rounds strategic [60:18] weaponry and I don't have to go through [60:21] it but let's just say all of it's [60:22] eliminated [60:24] um the revolutionary guard and their [60:27] auxiliary bases and a large part of the [60:31] uh of the army the Iranian army has [60:34] enough weapons and the capability and [60:37] the willingness to kill every [60:41] counterrevolutionary [60:42] they run across. It's going to develop a [60:45] Shia [60:46] >> uh jihad against apostates. This is [60:50] where it's headed because they're [60:52] talking this way. They have been talking [60:54] this way already. They already showed [60:56] their indifference to life. They've [60:58] killed a minimum of 30,000. Who knows [61:00] how many more. So if they have nothing [61:04] to lose at the end of the day, they know [61:06] the United States is not invading. [61:08] That isn't going to happen. So what will [61:11] happen? Well, the peripheries will break [61:13] off. They'll be [61:14] >> So, what is it? So, what is it that the [61:15] Prime Minister Netanyahu is calling on? [61:17] He now did two speeches, one in Hebrew, [61:21] one uh AI Persian, which is pretty cool [61:24] that a head of state is using this like [61:26] technology to have his lips changed. [61:28] It's kind of cool. It's really It's [61:29] special. And he's he's telling them in [61:31] Persian, "Go out to the streets." Is [61:34] that irresponsible? Is he is he allowing [61:36] for the death of of thousands of of [61:38] Iranian people? or does he indeed see a [61:41] moment where the where the people can [61:43] overcome the men with the guns and and [61:46] and really overthrow this regime? [61:48] >> I hate to say this, but it reminds me [61:50] very much. You're not old enough. But uh [61:53] there was an incident in 1956 with [61:56] Hungary when they rose up against the [61:58] Soviets and the Americans unfortunately [62:01] radio free Europe RF and the rest of [62:03] them encouraged them to to to revolt [62:08] with the assumption they they were [62:09] giving them the assumption that the US [62:12] would help that NATO would help that [62:13] that they would be saved from the [62:15] Soviets and nothing of the sort would [62:17] happen because of Suez and other things [62:19] were going on right now. I mean, it's [62:22] nice to say rise up and overthrow your [62:26] oppressors. And what you're doing is you [62:29] are sending a lot of good people to [62:33] their death. [62:35] >> You can't do this. What you have to do [62:39] is smash the IRGC first. And we're doing [62:42] that now. We are doing that. But it's [62:45] going to take time. And at the end of [62:48] the day, I'm not entirely sure that it's [62:51] going to be successful given the fact [62:53] that they have the guns and our people [62:55] don't. [62:56] >> Right. [62:57] >> That's right. That's that's what I'm [62:59] hearing as well. [62:59] >> That's what I'm afraid of. [63:01] >> That's right. I understand what you're [63:02] saying. Okay. Let's let's switch one [63:04] gear for a second. Uh you're Jonathan [63:07] Pard, you've always been a believer, uh [63:10] a man of faith as well. Uh you live now [63:12] in the land of Israel. And I I just want [63:14] to just talk about something that not [63:16] every one of our uh uh viewers [63:19] understands. Uh we have this holiday of [63:21] Purim coming up which which commemorates [63:23] the battle that we had with Nazilike [63:27] Persians, the Amalikites that were in [63:29] Persia. Oh, we lost Jonathan there for a [63:30] second. Jonathan, we lost you for a [63:33] second. [63:34] Let's see if we could get Jonathan back [63:36] there. We lost him for a second. In any [63:38] case, I was saying that we have lost H. [63:41] We lost Jonathan, but he's going to come [63:42] back with the help of God. Uh uh we [63:44] almost lost to an Amalachite incursion, [63:48] an Amalite attack against the Jews in [63:50] Persia 2500 years ago. Uh but we won. Uh [63:54] we pushed them back. And so that was a [63:57] very special moment that we had. Uh and [63:59] we commemorated that uh moment. Uh we [64:04] commemorated that this Shabbat as we [64:06] were reading the commemoration of the of [64:08] the uh h the adjournment, the [64:12] commandment to remember the Amalachites [64:14] and what they did to us in the desert [64:16] and how we must fight them at that very [64:18] moment were we striking against uh Iran. [64:22] Really an incredible thing. So far, we [64:24] have not uh received Jonathan back and [64:27] maybe he'll come back. In the meantime, [64:29] we right now have a very special guest [64:32] and that is the co-hostess with the [64:35] mostess, my beloved wife, Malaka Flea. [64:38] Maka, shalom and welcome. Thank you so [64:39] much for being with us. [64:40] >> Hey Isai, good to good to be here with [64:42] you at this historic moment. [64:44] >> Yeah. Yeah. We've had great uh Maka, [64:47] we've had great um guests so far. We had [64:51] Jonathan Krius. Uh we had an Iranian. Uh [64:54] we had we had Jonathan Pard and now we [64:57] have you, Mala. Um you're coming at it [65:00] from also the perspective of of the [65:02] Jewish woman who's also managing an [65:04] Israeli household. give me a little bit [65:06] of a sense about uh how that's been [65:08] feeling in the last few days. [65:10] >> Well, I'll tell you, you know, if anyone [65:13] here is who's watching has been watching [65:16] anything that we do for more than a [65:19] week, then you know that um everyone's [65:22] been anticipating this moment and the [65:24] question really was when's it happening? [65:26] When is there going to be an attack on [65:28] Iran? Who's going to do it? the United [65:30] States is bringing more and more [65:32] warships, planes, the most [65:34] state-of-the-art technology over to this [65:36] region. It's not something that happens [65:39] um unless something's really going down, [65:42] you know. So, so everyone had a sense [65:44] that this was going to happen. Um and [65:48] there there are a lot of um simultaneous [65:51] feelings. On the one hand, there is a [65:53] sense of [65:55] um relief. I'll be honest with you, [65:58] there's like a certain kind of relief. [66:00] We've all been waiting. We know this is [66:03] happening. Tension building, tension [66:04] building. Um, and now that it's finally [66:07] happening, we are um, we revert to [66:11] training kind of, you know what I mean? [66:13] It's like we have been through this [66:15] before. This is not our first rodeo. We [66:18] have seen war before. It's been [66:20] recently. We've seen war against Iran [66:22] recently. And there is a general sense [66:25] amongst the nation that we would like [66:27] like to finish off this enemy once and [66:29] for all. And of course when I talk about [66:30] an enemy I am not talking about the [66:32] people of Iran or even the country of [66:34] Iran. I'm talking about um the evil [66:38] regime which has its tentacles in [66:40] throughout the whole Middle East and [66:42] throughout the world and is puppeteering [66:44] all kinds of horrific terrorism and [66:46] violence and oppression in this region [66:49] and around the world. And the Jewish [66:51] people, frankly, have gotten, I would [66:53] say, a lot more courage and confidence [66:56] from our experience in the last war, [66:58] both in the Gaza war and in our [67:00] experience with Iran, even though that's [67:02] not easy, and I don't want to sound [67:04] smug. Um, it is hard. you know, uh, you [67:08] asked me about how it is as a Jewish [67:10] woman, and I'm not sure it's so [67:12] different for a Jewish man in the sense [67:14] that when you're a mother or a father, [67:17] then both of you together, if everything [67:19] is working correctly, are dealing with [67:21] the kids and trying to make everyone [67:23] feel secure and trying to make people [67:25] feel like their days are meaningful and [67:28] and productive and um, and on the one [67:32] hand acknowledging the uh, wildness of [67:36] the situation the unpredictability and [67:38] the scariness, you know, let's just say [67:41] it like it's scary and these missiles [67:43] are very serious business. Um, but you [67:48] we also want to maintain a look of [67:51] strength and that things are going to be [67:53] okay and that Hashem is with us. Um, [67:55] I'll tell you that as a Jewish mom that [68:00] um, watching Israel perform the [68:06] the necessary steps of this war from [68:08] where I'm sitting in my house has been [68:11] kind of inspiring because I know that [68:14] many countries if they were to face war [68:16] would be nowhere near as prepared um, as [68:20] Israel is. And I say that cautiously [68:21] because anything can happen and we need [68:23] Hashem to be with us always. Um and we [68:25] need his his blessing for success [68:28] always. But um the the incredible [68:31] sophistication of the warning systems [68:33] and the and the bomb shelters which have [68:36] been built for years and the the way [68:38] that the uh homeront command issues [68:40] their directives and everything trying [68:42] to be clear and the way that the [68:43] hospitals know how to operate an [68:45] emergency situation because they've done [68:47] it so many times. and and the way [68:49] soldiers know how to go exactly where [68:51] they're going and they know what they're [68:52] supposed to be doing and and there are [68:54] various support systems both official [68:56] and unofficial to help them and to help [68:58] their families and there's there's a [69:00] whole humongous system I would even say [69:03] a national culture that enables this [69:07] kind of a situation to occur in a way [69:09] which is not um I wouldn't say it's not [69:12] traumatic because I think that people do [69:14] get traumatized and feelings are very [69:16] personal and we have uh acknowledge [69:18] that. But but it is it can be building. [69:21] It can be uplifting. It can be [69:23] strengthening. It can be unifying. [69:26] Um and and that is a little piece of [69:29] what it looks like um as a Jewish woman. [69:32] I'll tell you though that you know if we [69:34] had um if we had gone live like six [69:38] hours ago, right? So, I think that my my [69:41] um [69:43] my tone would be like pretty upbeat, [69:46] maybe even um celebratory, maybe even [69:50] like we'd make jokes about, you know, [69:53] defeating Iran and the moolas and [69:55] because the spirit is high. But um in [69:59] the last couple of hours we had a [70:02] horrific loss. The loss of um eight [70:05] people, many of them children, which is [70:08] and right before PURM, you know, this is [70:10] like our happy it's our happiest time of [70:12] the year. So it's really um it's really [70:15] I wouldn't say it's deflating because [70:16] we're going to keep going and that's the [70:18] way that we do things, but it hurts. You [70:20] know what I mean? It hurts. Um, and um, [70:24] I'm sure that some of our enemies are [70:25] watching and I'm therefore not going to [70:27] tell them anything new. I don't want to [70:29] give any weapons in the hands of our [70:31] enemies, but but I think that they [70:33] already know um that the Jewish people [70:36] value and treasure their brothers and [70:38] sisters, their children, [70:41] um, so highly that the worst thing that [70:44] you can do to us uh, basically is to [70:47] take one of us. Um and the loss of one [70:49] of of us um is felt very powerfully. We [70:54] lost someone also yesterday in Tel Aviv. [70:56] There was um a direct strike on a [70:58] building in Tel Aviv and there were many [71:00] injured and one woman was unfortunately [71:02] lost her life. um and today even more. [71:05] And that um with all the success and all [71:08] the incredible miraculousness that this [71:11] war has already seen and the incredible [71:14] visions that we're now having of a of a [71:17] totally changed Middle East and and a [71:19] changed world as a result of this um [71:22] this mission um a blessed mission. Um I [71:26] think that you know I don't think anyone [71:28] blames anyone in the sense that everyone [71:31] understands that that 100% success rate [71:35] um is nearly impossible. So I think that [71:38] everyone understands that this is not [71:40] some kind of a horrible failure on the [71:42] part of the IDF or the leadership or [71:43] anything but it it brought the mood [71:46] down. Um people are are very pained. [71:50] >> That's what happens when you kill when [71:51] you kill our children for sure. Uh but [71:53] at the same time it's important to [71:55] remember this is a war and uh and Ahmed [71:58] Ahmed is dead and so is Ka and this this [72:02] evil is going down and yes in their [72:04] death rattle they take more people with [72:06] them. Let's watch a few videos together. [72:08] Mala uh first thing uh Netanyao uh uh [72:12] they they've put out videos where they [72:14] use AI uh to kind of have uh Netanyao [72:17] speak in different languages. I played [72:19] one in person. Here's one in English. [72:21] Check this out. Okay, [72:23] >> and sisters, citizens of Israel, [72:26] a short while ago, Israel and the United [72:28] States launched a joint campaign, [72:31] Operation Lions Roar. [72:33] The goal of the operation to end the [72:35] threat from the Ayatollah regime in [72:37] Iran. [72:39] At this hour, the IDF is attacking [72:41] targets of the oppressive regime [72:43] facilities of the Revolutionary Guard [72:45] and the Bas and together with the United [72:48] States military ballistic missile sites [72:50] that threaten both Israel and United [72:53] States forces. [72:55] This operation will continue as long as [72:57] necessary. [72:59] For 47 years, the evil regime in Iran [73:02] has called out death to Israel, death to [73:05] America. It has trampled the citizens of [73:08] its own country. It has terrorized the [73:10] peoples of the region and spread an [73:12] extensive terror network throughout the [73:14] entire world. It has invested enormous [73:17] resources to develop atomic bombs and [73:20] tens of thousands of missiles intended [73:23] as it defined it to wipe Israel off the [73:25] map of the world. [73:27] It also armed the terror proxies around [73:29] us in Gaza, Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Yemen, [73:33] Judea, and Samaria. [73:35] and it has spilled our blood. But if [73:38] anyone needed further proof regarding [73:40] the murderous nature of the Ayatollah [73:42] regime, they received it last month [73:46] because we all saw how this regime of [73:48] terror in Thran carried out an [73:50] unprecedented mass slaughter of the [73:52] citizens of Iran itself. [73:54] It murdered in cold blood thousands of [73:57] children, adults, and the elderly. Tens [74:00] of thousands were imprisoned, tortured, [74:02] and humiliated. [74:04] And why? only because they sought for [74:06] themselves a life of freedom and [74:08] dignity. [74:09] >> Somebody is writing this doesn't sound [74:11] like BB. I said this is a kind of AI [74:14] that they used in Persian. [74:16] >> Oh, the the Iranians made this. [74:18] >> No, no, no, no, no, no. The Israeli [74:20] government I think Netanyahu simply [74:22] didn't have time. They put out his [74:23] Hebrew video was translated into Persian [74:26] and also into and into English as well. [74:29] >> Video. [74:30] >> Yeah, this is a governmentissued video. [74:32] >> Interesting. I've never seen anything [74:33] like this. Well, bottom line is that [74:35] that obviously he's been very busy and [74:38] so they they they put out this video [74:40] still. I think it's I I think it's [74:41] effective. Uh I want you to also see [74:44] Mala what's happening in the streets uh [74:47] of Iran itself. And this is an Israeli [74:50] news outlet. I think it's Channel 12 or [74:52] Channel 11. Let's take a look at how [74:53] Iranians are celebrating. [74:59] >> Uh no, this is I played this video [75:01] beforehand. Sorry. This is uh [75:05] >> that does not look like terror. [75:07] >> This is No, this is British Persians [75:10] joining the British community, the [75:12] Jewish British community in celebration [75:14] of the fall of of uh uh of Isn't that [75:18] interesting that that [75:20] >> Yeah, that's awesome. And I think that [75:22] Israelis are are now really [75:25] um [75:27] I don't know if the what the word is [75:28] like fantasizing about a future in which [75:32] Persians and Jews can have a good [75:35] healthy working mutually warm [75:38] relationship. I think that um there is [75:41] definitely a sense in Israel that we are [75:43] working to free ourselves, but there is [75:46] no question that Israelis understand the [75:48] ramifications of these moves for the [75:50] people of Iran and that there is an [75:52] excitement about being a part of freeing [75:55] that country and taking it out from [75:57] under tyranny. [75:58] >> Yeah. And and you you talked about a [76:00] light-hearted mood. Here's a spoof [76:01] that's been going wildly uh over Israeli [76:04] internet. Check this out. [76:12] So this is uh Trump and and Netanyahu uh [76:15] watching saying happy uh happy purim and [76:19] the guy behind them is is uh and his [76:22] head kind of explodes and that has been [76:25] going very popular. So it's like a purim [76:26] spoof or political spoof. [76:28] >> You know what I mean? And and it's got [76:30] so it's got that that energy and that's [76:32] it's been going all around the internet. [76:34] It's been saying a lot. Uh, and now I [76:36] want you to watch actually the [76:38] announcement of of of President Trump. [76:41] President Trump also made an [76:42] announcement explaining why he's taken [76:45] upon himself to do this war. And you [76:47] know, Mala, for him, it's not like [76:49] totally popular. He can get a lot uh he [76:52] could get a lot of push back. So, let's [76:54] watch. [76:54] >> Right. And there are people in the [76:56] so-called rightwing um who are pushing [76:59] back hard on him [77:00] >> like [77:02] Yeah. All those folks. And we had uh uh [77:04] we had Jonathan Kenrikas on. He was [77:06] explaining why those guys are so wrong. [77:09] Here is President Donald Trump of the [77:11] United States explaining why uh he has [77:15] engaged in an act of war against the [77:19] regime in Iran. Check this out. [77:22] >> The United States military began major [77:26] combat operations in Iran. [77:30] Our objective is to defend the American [77:33] people by eliminating eminent threats [77:36] from the Iranian regime, a vicious group [77:40] of very hard, terrible people. [77:45] Its menacing activities directly [77:47] endanger the United States, our troops, [77:49] our bases overseas, and our allies [77:52] throughout the world. For 47 years, the [77:55] Iranian regime has chanted death to [77:58] America and waged an unending campaign [78:01] of bloodshed and mass murder, targeting [78:05] the United States, our troops, and the [78:07] innocent people in many, many countries. [78:10] Among the regime's very first acts was [78:13] to back a violent takeover of the US [78:15] embassy in Tran, holding dozens of [78:19] American hostages for 444 days. [78:23] In 1983, Iran's proxies carried out the [78:27] Marine barracks bombing in Beirut that [78:29] killed 241 American military personnel. [78:34] In 2000, they knew and were probably [78:37] involved with the attack on the USS [78:40] Cole. Many died. [78:43] Iranian forces killed and maimed [78:45] hundreds of American service members in [78:47] Iraq. The regime's proxies have [78:49] continued to launch countless attacks [78:51] against American forces stationed in the [78:54] Middle East in recent years, as well as [78:57] US naval and commercial vessels in [79:00] international shipping lands. It's been [79:03] mass terror, and we're not going to put [79:06] up with it any longer. From Lebanon to [79:09] Yemen and Syria to Iraq, the regime has [79:13] armed, trained, and funded terrorist [79:15] militias that have soaked the earth with [79:19] blood and guts. [79:21] And it was Iran's proxy Hamas that [79:24] launched the monstrous October 7th [79:27] attacks on Israel, slaughtering more [79:30] than 1,000 innocent people, including 46 [79:33] Americans, while taking 12 of our [79:36] citizens hostage. It was brutal, [79:39] something like the world has never seen [79:42] before. [79:43] Iran is the world's number one state [79:46] sponsor of terror and just recently [79:48] killed tens of thousands of its own [79:51] citizens on the street as they [79:53] protested. It has always been the policy [79:55] of the United States in particular my [79:59] administration that this terrorist [80:01] regime can never have a nuclear weapon. [80:04] I'll say it again. They can never have a [80:08] nuclear weapon. [80:10] That is why in operation midnight hammer [80:13] last June we obliterated the regime's [80:16] nuclear program at Fordo Natans and [80:21] Isvahan. [80:22] After that attack we warned them never [80:25] to resume their malicious pursuit of [80:27] nuclear weapons and we sought repeatedly [80:32] to make a deal. We tried. They wanted to [80:36] do it. They didn't want to do it again. [80:38] They wanted to do it. They didn't want [80:40] to do it. They didn't know what was [80:41] happening. They just wanted to practice [80:44] evil. [80:45] But Iran refused, just as it has for [80:48] decades and decades. [80:51] They've rejected every opportunity to [80:53] renounce their nuclear ambitions, [80:56] and we can't take it anymore. Instead, [80:59] they attempted to rebuild their nuclear [81:02] program and to continue developing long [81:05] range missiles that can now threaten our [81:09] very good friends and allies in Europe, [81:12] our troops stationed overseas and could [81:15] soon reach the American homeland. [81:18] Just imagine how emboldened this regime [81:21] would be if they ever had and actually [81:24] were armed with nuclear weapons as a [81:27] means to deliver their message. For [81:30] these reasons, the United States [81:32] military is undertaking a massive and [81:35] ongoing operation to prevent this very [81:38] wicked, radical dictatorship from [81:41] threatening America and our core [81:43] national security interests. We are [81:46] going to destroy their missiles and [81:48] raise their missile industry to the [81:51] ground. It will be totally again [81:54] obliterated. We are going to annihilate [81:57] their navy. We are going to ensure that [82:00] the region's terrorist proxies can no [82:03] longer destabilize the region or the [82:05] world and attack our forces and no [82:08] longer use their IEDs or roadside bombs [82:12] as they are sometimes called to so [82:15] gravely wound and kill thousands and [82:17] thousands of people including many [82:20] Americans. And we will ensure that Iran [82:23] does not obtain a nuclear weapon. It's a [82:27] very simple message. They will never [82:30] have a nuclear weapon. This regime will [82:34] soon learn that no one should challenge [82:36] the strength and might of the United [82:38] States armed forces. I built and rebuilt [82:42] our military in my first administration, [82:46] and there is no military on earth even [82:48] close to its power, strength, or [82:51] sophistication. [82:53] My administration has taken every [82:55] possible step to minimize the risk to US [82:58] personnel in the region. Even so, and I [83:01] do not make this statement lightly, the [83:04] Iranian regime seeks to kill. The lives [83:08] of courageous American heroes may be [83:11] lost and we may have casualties. [83:14] That often happens in war. But we're [83:17] doing this not for now. We're doing this [83:19] for the future. And it is a noble [83:22] mission. We pray for every service [83:25] member as they selflessly risk their [83:27] lives to ensure that Americans and our [83:30] children will never be threatened by a [83:32] nuclear armed Iran. We ask God to [83:35] protect all of our heroes in harm's way. [83:38] And we trust that with his help, the men [83:42] and women of the armed forces will [83:44] prevail. We have the greatest in the [83:47] world and they will prevail. To the [83:49] members of the Islamic Revolutionary [83:51] Guard, the armed forces and all of the [83:55] police, I say tonight that you must lay [83:58] down your weapons and have complete [84:00] immunity or in the alternative face [84:04] certain death. So lay down your arms, [84:08] you will be treated fairly with total [84:10] immunity or you will face certain death. [84:15] Finally, to the great proud people of [84:17] Iran, I say tonight that the hour of [84:20] your freedom is at hand. Stay sheltered. [84:23] Don't leave your home. It's very [84:25] dangerous outside. Bombs will be [84:27] dropping everywhere. When we are [84:30] finished, take over your government. It [84:32] will be yours to take. This will be [84:35] probably your only chance for [84:38] generations. [84:39] For many years, you have asked for [84:41] America's help, but you never got it. No [84:44] president was willing to do what I am [84:46] willing to do tonight. Now you have a [84:49] president who is giving you what you [84:51] want. So let's see how you respond. [84:55] America is backing you with overwhelming [84:57] strength and devastating force. Now is [85:00] the time to seize control of your [85:02] destiny and to unleash the prosperous [85:05] and glorious future that is close within [85:08] your reach. This is the moment for [85:10] action. Do not let it pass. May God [85:14] bless the brave men and women of [85:16] America's armed forces. May God bless [85:19] the United States of America. May God [85:22] bless you all. Thank you, [85:26] >> Mala. I I think in some ways in some [85:28] ways that's that's President Trump's [85:29] greatest speech. I I you know, so clear [85:33] uh so honest, so truth. Yes. So simple [85:35] and so truthful uh that this is what the [85:38] region wants. And I love that end which [85:40] is like, "Hey, Iranian people, you've [85:42] been asking for help. This is your [85:43] moment. You know, take take what we're [85:46] giving you. This is your chance." What [85:47] do you think about that? [85:48] >> Yeah, absolutely. And he's just like, [85:51] "They're doing evil. America doesn't [85:53] stand for that. We're going to go to [85:56] war. It could be uh, you know, that [85:59] we're going to have some casualties. [86:01] That's what war looks like." And then he [86:03] goes, he says it in like the most simple [86:05] language possible. He goes, "This is not [86:08] for now. This is for the future." Yes. [86:12] And so many people are so concerned [86:15] about the difficulties of a war now that [86:18] they're not thinking about what will [86:19] happen a hundred years from now. And uh [86:22] I'm very um inspired by President [86:26] Trump's decisiveness to back Israel in [86:29] this moment. Uh we all know that Israel [86:31] is is conducting the military operations [86:33] over Iran. I'm sure there's tons of [86:35] American support and there were reports [86:37] that the CIA gave um the extremely [86:41] reliable information to um Israeli [86:44] intelligence as to where Kameu was so [86:46] that they were able to kill him. Um and [86:48] I'm guessing that there is like very [86:50] serious coordination on all the levels [86:53] between Israel and the United States. [86:56] And as a person who grew up in the [86:57] United States and as a person who has [87:00] always looked at the uh has always [87:03] recognized I think um the greatness um [87:07] and the great vision that was the [87:09] building of the United States. I am so [87:11] gratified to see the United States of [87:14] America take such a clear moral stand [87:19] for good in this region and for all the [87:22] world and to make such a um a sensible [87:26] and yet courageous decision um to back [87:30] us as we do what we got to do. [87:33] >> Awesome. Uh very powerful moment indeed. [87:36] Um very powerful moment indeed that's [87:38] happening right now. I don't know if [87:40] everybody understands like what you know [87:42] how big this moment really is. Uh but I [87:44] think the Persian people are [87:45] understanding that uh they they are [87:47] right now cheering out there. One [87:50] second. Let me see this. Check. [88:02] >> Okay. So, [88:06] >> okay. So, there's you know [88:07] >> scarf [88:09] No scarf. Now I wear a scarf. I wear a [88:13] scarf, but that's my choice. And if I [88:16] decided to take off my scarf, no law [88:19] system would come after me and I [88:21] wouldn't be punished and I wouldn't be [88:23] threatened. That is my call. And now the [88:26] the women of Iran, they want to wear a [88:28] scarf. They don't want to wear a scarf. [88:29] They feel free to do what they want to [88:31] do. And that is incredible. You should [88:34] know, Ishai, that that Jewish women of [88:36] all the stripes, all the like the most [88:38] religious all the way to the most [88:40] secular look at this moment in time for [88:43] Iranian women and we are beyond excited [88:48] for them. We are thrilled that they will [88:50] be set free. [88:52] >> All right. At the same time, uh we are [88:54] we are definitely facing very serious [88:55] attacks. Uh and um let's just take a [88:58] look at what it what that looks like. [89:00] Um, here is what a strike on Tel Aviv [89:05] looks like just so you get a sense. [89:07] Okay, that's what it looked like [89:08] yesterday. Look at this. [89:12] >> It's terrifying stuff, right, [89:13] >> guys? We uh we said this in the last um [89:16] round of attacks, but you should know [89:20] that that because our warning system is [89:23] so highly calibrated, if you are not [89:26] sent into bomb shelters, you can go [89:30] outside and watch what's happening [89:33] outside. And oftentimes, if you are not [89:35] receiving a an alert, you can look up, [89:38] but you know someone else is in a region [89:40] close by, you can go outside, depending [89:42] where you live. And we live in the [89:43] mountainous region in Judea. You can go [89:45] outside and look outside and you see [89:48] Star Wars happening outside your window [89:50] and you hear it and every once in a [89:53] while a missile will be um neutralized [89:56] so high up in the air that it like hits [89:58] the atmosphere and you can see colors. [90:00] It's it's it's [90:03] something that that a human being would [90:05] never expect to witness with their own [90:07] eyes. And but as proud as we are of our [90:10] technology and as thankful we are for [90:12] God's protection, some missiles get [90:14] through and we had a missile get through [90:17] and reports are that nine are reported [90:20] killed. And I want you to see what this [90:22] looks like when a missile does strike. [90:43] He's saying there are people inside the [90:44] bomb shelter. There are people in the [90:46] bomb shelter, [90:47] >> right? There are people in the bomb [90:48] shelter. [90:49] >> See it from this image, but there was a [90:51] very large um community bomb shelter. [90:54] and Isshi, I don't know if you heard [90:56] this, but I heard, and it's not [90:57] confirmed yet, and it breaks my heart to [90:59] even say it, that I heard that there was [91:01] a children's pur party taking place [91:04] >> um in that bomb shelter, which gives me [91:06] goosebumps um to even think about. Um [91:10] there are several there there are some [91:12] like 30 wounded. Um I I know somebody [91:15] who owns a house in Beamesh. He sent out [91:18] to a a mutual WhatsApp group that we're [91:20] in a picture of his property that he [91:22] owns with the glass shattered out of the [91:25] windows. I asked him, "How far away [91:28] would you say that your property is from [91:30] the, you know, point of the landing of [91:33] this missile?" He said, "About a [91:34] kilometer." [91:36] >> Wow. So the glass shattering these [91:38] missiles are they're not the same as the [91:41] missiles that that came out of Gaza [91:42] which were very destructive. But these [91:44] long range ballistic missiles are [91:46] another league entirely. Um and it hit a [91:49] building and just obliterated it. And [91:51] there were people in the bomb shelter [91:53] and thank God some people were saved [91:55] because they were in that bomb shelter. [91:56] But because it was a direct impact it [91:58] was uh it was too much. We have to take [92:02] our enemies seriously and we have a [92:04] serious war on and yes the leadership of [92:06] of of the evil regime has been taken [92:09] down but the death rattle is still there [92:10] and it's quite dangerous and this war [92:12] continues mak [92:14] >> absolutely and we cannot afford to be um [92:17] smug [92:18] >> that we cannot be afford to celebrate [92:20] too early you know it's great to [92:21] celebrate and the and the destruction of [92:23] evil is fantastic at whatever level [92:25] that's happening but this is a a [92:27] critical moment in history and we cannot [92:30] be content um you know lpping off the [92:34] figureheads. We have to get this thing [92:36] at its root and destroy it entirely. [92:39] >> Maka Fleer, thank you so much for being [92:41] with us and a happy pur this pur [92:44] miraculous pumm. [92:45] >> Yeah, this porum we don't just talk [92:47] about the destruction of Amalik. We [92:49] actually remember it to and and and take [92:51] it into [92:52] >> do it as God commanded. Right. [92:53] >> That's right. Exactly. Maka, thank you [92:55] so much for being with us. [92:56] >> By porch po. All right, folks. We are in [93:00] the midst of a of a big battle with [93:02] Iran. The big guys have been taken out, [93:04] but the battle continues. Let's hear [93:06] from some of our big guys. Uh and one of [93:09] our best analysts who understands things [93:11] from the inside is Brigadier General in [93:14] the reserves, Amamira Vivi, who is the [93:16] chairman of the IDSF, the Israel Defense [93:20] and Security Forum, a group of 35,000 [93:23] reserve soldiers officers. uh he's held [93:26] senior positions, very senior positions [93:28] in the IDF uh commanded some of the uh [93:32] huge regions and battalions uh and now [93:35] he is I see him uh every day on Israeli [93:39] media. Uh and not only is he changing [93:41] the way officers are thinking and being [93:43] presented but also explaining Israel's [93:45] posture from a strong nationalist point [93:48] of view. Uh Brigadier General Amir [93:50] Avivi, thank you so much for being with [93:52] us uh in this moment. Okay. You know, [93:54] I've I've learned from experience not to [93:56] put words in your mouth. Give me a [93:57] picture of uh what's going on, how you [94:00] see this war. Um did you expect the [94:03] destruction of the heads uh of the [94:06] Iranian moola regime in the first day [94:09] and how do you see the war continuing [94:16] >> from the very beginning? um you know a [94:20] very surprising attack and it's amazing [94:22] to see that following the 12 war [94:26] >> air I lost you visually I lost you [94:28] visually I lost you visually I can only [94:31] hear your voice uh is there a [94:36] can I ask you to log back in wait for [94:38] you [94:40] I'll ask you to log back in please uh [94:44] because we lost you for a second there [94:45] but we hear you but if you can come [94:47] there you go there you are good Okay, go [94:49] ahead. Uh, General Leviv, go ahead. [94:59] >> Can you hear me? [95:00] >> Vakasha, go ahead, sir. [95:04] >> Thank you. So um I think that following [95:07] the 12- day war where where we managed [95:10] to really uh start with a big surprise [95:12] and take out many of the Iranian [95:14] leaders, the big question was are we [95:17] able to do it again? I mean this uh war [95:20] was very hard to think about a surprise [95:22] because the US was amassing a huge force [95:25] was clear that Israel and the US are [95:27] preparing [95:31] managed to you know um really attack by [95:35] surprise and kill and this is a huge [95:39] huge success on the part of Israel an [95:44] amazing success [95:47] um and following um the killing of [95:50] Kamay. [95:52] Are you hearing me? [95:54] >> I hear you, but I don't see you. I think
