Starting point is 00:00:14 Hello and welcome to It's time to rise up Hello and welcome to investigate Earth podcast I am your host chat alongside my beautiful wife Sherry Sherry Yes how great was this podcast? Oh my gosh it was freaking amazing is all I got to say It was great
Starting point is 00:00:53 It was and although listen we we talk about a very serious issue This is the Israel-Palestine conflict This is a potential of a nuclear Clear war is a potential for World War III. If you guys have followed us on our Twitter or our Facebook, you will know. Like, we have been tracking aircraft that are in the Mediterranean Sea. There has been multiple aircraft from around the world that has been infiltrating the Mediterranean Sea right outside of the Gaza Strip and Israel.
Starting point is 00:01:22 It literally looks like a lead-up to a World War III situation. It looks like either World War III situation or a show of force. We don't know yet. But what we do know is that we have a gentleman on tonight's podcast, which is a brother of one of our longtime listeners, Stephen, and I'll say your name. But Stephen has been a friend of mine now. He is a friend of mine. He's a longtime listener.
Starting point is 00:01:51 He lives not too far from where we do. And I actually asked Stephen to come on the podcast at one point in time. And he said, listen, if you want to talk about war or government or any of that stuff, my brother's the guy and I have to say not wrong no he is not wrong Rashid is
Starting point is 00:02:10 has come on the podcast he is a retired military vet 28 years and he's still young but he's also still currently works for the federal government I won't say in what capacity
Starting point is 00:02:24 you can maybe gather some of that from what we talk about on the podcast but he knows the world he's traveled the world he's been to Israel eight times he's been around the world, I believe probably, or no, sorry, he's been to, I think he said 50 countries. He knows world politics.
Starting point is 00:02:40 He knows sciops. He knows everything about what potentially is happening right now. And he also, he also, I guess, gave his input on some other aspects of potentially what is happening right now, which actually affected Sherry, unlike I've ever seen her affected by anything or anyone on this podcast ever before. and it actually kind of did me too. I got to be honest. Sherry actually shed a couple tears on this podcast. And I think for those of you to have listened over the past five years, and you know that Sherry's struggle in some ways between, you know,
Starting point is 00:03:17 you know that her family has always been Jewish. If you listen to our last episode of Bobby, which is her brother, gave the history between Israel and Palestine and just kind of the Israel, or sorry, the history of the Israel area, in that region. I think Bobby did a great job. We've had emails about Bobby and saying how great he is and acknowledged and all of that from Israeli residents. And then you have Rashid that comes on and kind of furthers that, but also talks about the possibilities of World War III, talks about the possibilities of talks about potential sleeper cells from Iranian-backed U.S., all this stuff.
Starting point is 00:03:59 like it is very elaborate but also there are some there are some things in here that listen if you are certain belief systems you may not you may not agree with and I think you guys
Starting point is 00:04:13 have always known my struggle I think we've I think we've said this for a very long time but he did touch me tonight as well and hopefully that I know for certain you will learn a lot from this episode and so without further ado

All right, everybody. We are here. We have a great interview or at least a great guest on this evening. His name is Rashid. I'm going to let Rashid introduce himself. Give a little bit of your background, Rashid. And obviously tonight we're talking about the Israel and Palestine conflict, how it affects potentially. the United States in the world.
Starting point is 00:07:32 But, Rachie, give us a little bit of your background. And by the way, welcome to the podcast. Thank you so much for coming on. Absolutely. Thank you for having me. Yes, my name is Rashid Lemon, Sr. And I spent 28 years in the military. I was in both the Marine Corps and the United States Army.
Starting point is 00:07:53 I was a helicopter mechanic in the Marine Corps. Later went into the Army to finish up my, my, time there. And I was a drill sergeant infantry. Then I moved over to civil affairs. And I just retired March of this year, 2023, completed my service for the United States. And I moved on on my civilian side. All that time I was in the military, it was reserve time. So I had a double duty. And I currently, I work for the federal government. I just leave it there. And I'm, Awesome. I like doing stuff like this, if you will. Yeah, for sure.
Starting point is 00:08:35 Well, welcome to the podcast. We're so glad that you're here. Absolutely. Absolutely. And Rashid, although we're not going to get into what you currently do, I think that you at least have a lot of knowledge on kind of the way the world works, you know, besides just the military, but just kind of the, I guess, foreign affairs, the United States, all of that. And you've said, number one, you've been to Israel before, correct? I mean, you've been to a lot of countries in our conversation earlier, right? Yeah, I'm fortunate to be, I think, counted like 43 countries I was able to go to.
Starting point is 00:09:11 And I've actually been to Israel eight times and got an opportunity. It wasn't for pleasure, mainly went for work, but did have opportunities to see the land. On another, what I do, what I didn't say that, is that I've been. in ministry, I have my master divinity in biblical studies to where my concentration was like in Greek and Hebrew, and I pretty much stayed in the realm. I was very fascinated with ancient Near East and history and also first and second temple Jewish history as well. Grew up in a Jewish neighborhood and in New York when I was a kid. So I have a, I'm very partial to the Jewish community. And, and, and, and, I, And so I forgot to throw that in there, but I'm very, very partial.
Starting point is 00:10:02 So if I'm biased, I'm going to be biased towards the Jewish folks. Well, no wonder I love you because I grew up as a Jew too. So that's great. Yeah, that's so amazing that you studied that because you grew up there. And there's so much to learn. And you going to Israel eight times is just amazing. I know it was for business, but I'm sure you got to see a lot of neat things there that most people don't get to see in a lifetime.
Starting point is 00:10:27 Yeah, it kind of blew my mind. The first time I went to Israel, I'll be honest with you, we at Bingorian Airport. Now, I'm going to tell you a quick, funny story, if you don't mind. So my name is Rashid. A lot of people always think that I'm a Muslim or something that nature. But my mom was growing up in the 70s, Woodstock, all that stuff. And she just wanted to, she wanted to name me the name. That was the thing back then.
Starting point is 00:10:54 So my name was Rashid. And my first time I get into Israel, even though I was going there for work, I'm going through the checkpoint to check your passport. And they're very, very cautious my ad towards the individual. And I gave my passport to the attendant and the, and then it's a shin bet and that part of that, that does that me. the next thing I know somebody's running down the hole he's no he's okay because they saw my name Rashid and so they very they don't they didn't know me whatever and and those are those kinds of caution so Israel is a very secure country and a very war-torn country and it's a beautiful country but the main thing that surprised me when I went there actually having some biblical knowledge about
Starting point is 00:11:51 Israel and the history behind Israel coming from the Old Testament if you will or the Tanaka of the Torah however you want to look at that part. There are a lot of mosques in Israel. I was shocked. A lot of mosques. Yeah, because obviously those are two different religions, right? For people that don't know, you know, biblical history or that, mosque are associated, obviously, with what, Muslim, correct?
Starting point is 00:12:14 And then you have... Correct. Yeah. So, but you have a lot of, you have a lot of Arab Israelis that are actually there, that are very, very partial. They're still Arab, but they still... practice their religion in Islam, but the unique part where people don't understand is that Israel was under the Ottoman Empire for many, many years. So a lot of that culture had blended into Israel
Starting point is 00:12:40 and a lot of it stayed. And there's some thoughts. I guess a lot of rabbis would tell you about that even if you look at the scriptures as to some of the responsibilities that God or Yahweh had on the Israelites and what they were supposed to do. But They remained in the land and you have this, and I know for the conversation, it's not, you have this conflict, this constant conflict that's going on. And I could just pretty much give everybody the history behind it and make it very simple. It's a battle between Ishmael and Isaac. I'll just leave it at that part right there. Ishmael and Isaac, this is, this goes back to Genesis in why you constantly have this fight between these sex of individuals. within the man of Israel. Wow. Okay, so I don't know if I want to ask that question yet, but remind me, Sherry, write that down because I want to get back into that. Let's talk for a minute about the potential of the United States enter in this war, and I do want to touch on Ishmael, Isaac, right?
Starting point is 00:13:49 So we said, so right now analysis, U.S. potentially preparing to enter Israel or Gaza war. A massive naval fleet is in the Israel-Lebanon-Gaza region. And these include two aircraft carriers, which is the USS Gerald R. Ford, the USS Dwight D. Eisenhower. You have two Taekindi-Rogga. I don't know if I'm saying that right. Class cruisers being known as USS Normandy, USS Philippine Sea. Then you have seven Arley-Birk-class destroyers, which are USS Thomas Hudner, USS Ramage, USS Carney, USS Roosevelt, USS Laboon,
Starting point is 00:14:25 USS Mason and USS Graverly. You also have one type 45 air defense destroyer, which is the HMS Duncan. You have five Freigates, which is the ESPS Mendez, Nunes, the FS Circoff, the ITS Carlo Margatini. Oh my God, these are weird words. TCG Javas and HS Prosva. You have two landing support ships, which are the, RFA, Lyme Bay, RFA Argus. And then we also may see submarines,
Starting point is 00:15:03 supply ships, aircraft, and other surface ships join the fleet in the region, as what some people are saying. In a post by the scent defender, which is a prominent, I guess, Israeli journalists, he says that this looks more than just posturing for an Israeli invasion of Gaza. Is the U.S. military preparing to join the war, possibly in response to an inevitable entry? by Hezbollah and or Iran.
Starting point is 00:15:28 Now, we also have some late reports coming in today that Iran has continued to threaten the potential invasion of Gaza or the Gaza Strip. Iran's ministry of foreign affairs issues the ultimatum to Israel. This was 14 hours ago where they say there is an opportunity for Israel to make amends in the coming hours. If not, the resistance will enhance its strategies and change the map of the reason or the region. So you essentially have Iran threatening Israel to a point by saying that if you go into Gaza, we are literally going to change what that map looks like. So Rashid,
Starting point is 00:16:09 with all of those things said, and we literally just talked about the first part is the ships, right, and most of the naval or the water support systems. I also had a post on our Twitter slash X account and our Facebook account today where we were looking at ADSB data, although yes, most military aircraft are not actually on ADSB, but you do still have some of that bleed over to where they are being known for whatever reason. But just what we saw, there was a ton. Yeah, we had a lot of U.S. aviation support units. We had Royal Air Force.
Starting point is 00:16:44 We had Turkey. We have Poland. We have Thailand. There is, I mean, it seems like there is aircraft representing the world right now. So the first question for you, Rashid, or at least what do you think about this? What do you think about all of the posturing or at least the presence of these battleships, these destroyers, all of this in the water? And you can also, I guess, touch on the aviation side of it as well.
Starting point is 00:17:09 Yeah. You know, this is a strange happenstance, you know, because first of all, we had the Abraham Accords and it was working very well. until the elections actually happen when all that stuff is being stripped. And to me, my opinion is the fact that we have to have a boogeyman. And with the, I'll have to say this way, the political scheme that's going on right now and the polls and all this other stuff, my opinion would be that this is possibly just the way the show of strength, not necessarily from the United States, but from the leader of the, of the, of,
Starting point is 00:17:52 of the nation that's putting all of those ships that are there. Now, that doesn't mean that there isn't a threat because actually Hezbollah is a threat to the United States who has been supporting the Hamas through proxy war this whole particular time. Looking at everything, how we exited Afghanistan as well, and how ISIS and also the Taliban have taken back. the land we went in for 20 years. It's, to me, it's somewhat of a political play. And, but we do have a responsibility to Israel. The conundrum that we also have in my, from just by people understanding, we give money to both entities. So I think it's somewhat of a conflict of interest in this.
Starting point is 00:18:46 And also on top of the simple fact, if people also remember under the Obama administration, He gave, now this is where the fact checkers came in. Obama gave, they said Obama gave $1.7 million back. Well, yeah, it was $1.7 million in the 70s when we seized that money, but it was still $150 million, excuse me, with the B, $150 billion that was worth the currency exchange when he actually gave it. Oh, wow. I didn't have some.
Starting point is 00:19:19 Yeah. Yes. When you go back and research that, because. Obama, he traded some terrorists, which we found and we killed some of them again when we left them from Guantanamo Bay when he also gave that money back during his administration. And then now Biden, he's given some monies previously, I think it was like $60 billion, just previously and now another $6 billion. And everybody knows it that with this money is funding terrorism. But they're saying it's frozen is what they're saying. They say it's frozen.
Starting point is 00:19:56 I mean, I don't know. I don't have access to how they do the monies. But I just, I just think honestly from a leadership standpoint, even from, I'd be like, we're not get with freezing at all. I mean, that will be the best thing to do. And that would kind of give, I think, the American people and maybe the world a, an understanding. I wouldn't care.
Starting point is 00:20:18 It's the American. It's like, if you want the $6 billion, come get it. You know, we'd be. United States. Come get you $6 billion. What are you going to do? What the U.N. or NATO is going to make me give the money? Come on, please. With the United States. That's basically we've been doing that the whole time. And so I don't understand why there's such an exigency to give them this $6 billion. Well, yeah. So why do we give them money, though, Rushie? Like, what is the point behind this?
Starting point is 00:20:44 Because, you know, look at the Iran-Contra affairs and going back to like going back to the Afghan Russian war. So you have to go historically, so go back to the, to the World Wars. So FDR, FDR, basically, if you read the stories behind FDR, and when there was a whole lot of stuff happening after the First World War going into the Second World War, and FDR, the stories, and actually I've read in history books that he prayed for war, because what was happening during this time frame? The Great Depression. Yeah. Okay.
Starting point is 00:21:24 What was happening during the time? Let me just fast forward and come back. What was happening during the time of the, before we went to Afghanistan? We just went through all of that financial hardships, what we did through the housing markets, the big bubble. You know, they talked about that. So the mindset is that war, we need war to get out of this financial or this economic downturn or this economic depression. Smedley Butler wrote a book who's a two-time Medal of Honor winner, and he was a four-star general in the United States Marine Corps wrote a book called War is a Rackett. Here's a two-time Medal of Honor winner, highly decorated, a Marine who wrote a book.
Starting point is 00:22:10 You can actually Google it online, just put Wars of Rackett, Smetley Butler, and you can read what he wrote about Wars of Rackett. because as a military tactician general leader, he was jaded of all the years he spent in the military of creating this war machine to generate money. So then you got to look at lobbying and all these different things that happen to where now elected leaders get into position because they're getting money from these major corporations
Starting point is 00:22:38 and groups that want to do war. Yeah. And after the first, after the second World War, they decimated all of Germany. I've been to Germany many times, and it looks brand new. I mean, to me it was, you know, it looks like a rebuilt city. Just, you know, Dusseldorch, you know, Frankfurt, all those places. A lot of it was rebuilt.
Starting point is 00:23:05 That was money. Somebody had to have the contracts, build it, so on and so forth. So they saw that war, there was a potential to make great gains. out of that. I'm just, I'm just, I'm just really trying to simplify it. And so now when you go into Afghanistan, well, we go to the Iraq War, you had Halliburton. Halliburton was a company that was by Cheney and who was the head of the CIA at one point and so was Daddy Bush. He was ahead of the CIA. And they have a lot of information and intel on how all this stuff works in the background. and Halliburton was one of the biggest contracting companies during the Iraq War,
Starting point is 00:23:47 doing all this, all that other stuff, right? But where's Halliburton right now? Where they at? Aliburton is no longer a U.S. company. They are a company in Saudi Arabia. Why? Because they were getting ready to be investigated by our Congress. But guess what?
Starting point is 00:24:07 Congress can't investigate a company that's not a United States company. So now they're a company in in, in, in, uh, in, uh, Saudi Arabia. Wow. So look at all the play that's been happening. And all I'm saying is even right now. So let me, let me kind of like fast forward a little bit to our time frame in, in the subject you talk about right now. So this is just my opinion, just my observation. Maybe I'm out there.
Starting point is 00:24:31 I don't know. But McCarthy, the, the speaker of the house, obviously a rhino of, uh, in Republican Party. Yeah. He was working a lot with the Democrats. And obviously Matt gets, he didn't like what he did because they set up the rules for them not to do X, Y, and Z. And then they had the one one Congress member can move to excuse him from his position to vacate to position of Speaker. If he didn't, if he didn't meet some of the, what they agree to, right? but McCarthy, and just think about it, now just go back.
Starting point is 00:25:11 Biden wanted to give all this money to the Ukraine. And we have already given like $113 billion to the Ukraine and then all the other reports and everything, which is on the news, they basically said they were losing. But the media was saying they were winning, but they were losing the whole time. Because at the end of the day, Putin does not want to destroy the Ukraine. Ukraine historically was part of Russia.
Starting point is 00:25:38 Half of Ukraine wants to be part of the European Union. The other half, the eastern, the eastern part of Ukraine wants to be part of, Russia. I mean, everybody knows that. So my whole point is let Ukraine figure it out. Let them work that thing out. But the problem is you have all these other issues in Ukraine with the banks, the billionaire that ran all that stuff.
Starting point is 00:26:01 Even down with Zelensky used to be a actor. used to be an actor. And the billionaire that he worked for owned all of the infrastructure, the economic infrastructure within the Ukraine going. I mean, just all the stuff we've been hearing in the news. Yeah. And so the Ukraine, there was a way to wash money. Why is because Afghanistan fell, because Afghanistan was the place
Starting point is 00:26:26 where they were washing money to get money. So whenever there's war, money can move any kind of way, pretty much almost unchecked. Absolutely. And then you can just keep writing blank checks all the time without being questioned, so to speak. And listen, and to your point, and sorry, I don't mean to interrupt you, but to your point, to your point to this, though, do you think that, you know, when you look at media, and by the way, I actually 100% believe that what happened in Israel happened, right? I believe what happened. Absolutely. Yeah, what happened with Hamas happened.
Starting point is 00:26:57 They were brutal terrorists. Yeah, they were brutal and they really did kill children because a lot of people are saying the ones that are. like with Hamas in Palestine. They're like, oh, no, that didn't really happen. That was all false. It was fake. But it really did happen because there is proof on Twitter. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:15 And so to my point and my question to you, Rashid, is to what you're saying is, you know, I wonder how much media, right, and these images of whatever they're, whatever they want to push, you know, especially for the war machine, right? The military industrial complex, which I 100% believe is a major. real thing, very much so, in my opinion, like the biopharmaceutical complex nowadays. But, you know, then we also wonder, you know, the reason why biopharmaceutical complex funds the media so heavily, you know, Pfizer, modern, or whatever. And then if you even think about the military industrial complex, which I believe is probably
Starting point is 00:27:52 one of the biggest conglomerate organizations out there. I mean, and you had already talked about Halliburton, but you got a lot of these other companies, they just they just like you said you can move money during war but I think is because you can pull on the heartstrings of people at the end of day and you can get away whatever you do that they do it by fear yeah and so if you look at like everybody's been every this the same thing they keep saying it's a conspiracy but it's not this this power this global power grab that they want to do in the world obviously with the going back to
Starting point is 00:28:31 Clauble, going, referencing Klaus Schwab and the West, the World Economic Forum,
Starting point is 00:28:37 and he talks about you won't own anything or I mean, that's the propaganda that they put
Starting point is 00:28:41 out on their own websites and then they see you crazy when you repeat it. And so, and somehow
Starting point is 00:28:49 all of these group, everything, and all of this stuff, and even, and the thing about it is,
Starting point is 00:28:55 we're still dealing with this topic of like all these people here now in the Middle East, and because the Middle East is very destabilized, uh, because of a historical battle,
Starting point is 00:29:07 even between the, the Shunis, the Shiites and, you know, uh, and even, even within the whole family of the, of Islam itself, right? And so they, they've, they've had a historical battle, even, even internally in that brotherhood on top of the brotherhood between the Ishma, Ishmaelites and Isaac, you know, the, the, the, the, the, the promise son of, of Yahweh, you know, um, But all of these things actually are connected. And I don't know where they're going to, what is it that now we're trying to, we're trying to do with this. Let me see if I'm on the same page as you, though, because I've heard a lot of people say that before this conflict even happened, there was a lot of conflict within Israel. there's like three groups that were like at each other's throat.
Starting point is 00:30:00 Almost a civil war. And things were going on and maybe, you know, and it goes back to when there's issues going on in a country, other things happen. Are you talking about Israeli politics itself? Right. Well, here. Here, let me actually, let me play a clip actually for you guys. And this is Charlie Kirk. Charlie Kirk obviously is, I believe he started Turning Point USA.
Starting point is 00:30:23 And he was on the Patrick Bet David podcast recently. And I got to be honest, if I would have heard this from a lot of people, I would have been like, I don't know. That sounds crazy. But I do respect Charlie Kirk's a lot of his opinions, right? I mean, I think he's a very knowledgeable person. Obviously, not everyone is right. But to your point, babe, about the Civil War and stuff like that, let's hear what Charlie Kirk had to say with Patrick Bet David about this whole situation between Israel. and Hamas. Here you go. Many times, the whole country is a fortress. When I first heard this story, I still had the same gut instinct that I did initially. I find this very hard to believe. I've been to that Gaza border. You cannot go 10 feet without running into a 19-year-old with an AR-15 or an automatic machine gun that's an IDF soldier. Right? The whole country is surveilled. And so let me just kind of go through this. We don't talk about Israeli politics very often,
Starting point is 00:31:25 and most Americans don't know this. The last nine months, Israel was on the brink of civil war. It's not an exaggeration. This judicial stuff, there were hundreds of thousands of Israelis taking to the streets because Bibi Netanyahu is basically redefining the Israeli constitution. That's not an exaggeration, right? He said the judicial branch has too much power.
Starting point is 00:31:43 There were protests planned this week against Netanyahu where they anticipated tens of thousands of people to take to the streets. That's all gone, Patrick. Netanyahu now has an emergency government and a mandate to, lead. I'm not, I'm not willing to say, to go so far that saying that Netanyahu knew or there was intelligence here, but I think some questions need to be asked. Was there a stand down order? Was there a stand down order? Six hours? I don't believe it. Israel's the side of New Jersey. When I took a helicopter ride from Jerusalem to the Gaza border, it's 45 minutes. Six hours.
Starting point is 00:32:19 They're live streaming the killing of Jews. Did somebody in the government say stand down? That is. a legitimate non-conspiracy question. The whole country is the IDF. The whole country is. And you're trying to tell me that they're going to concerts and kibbutzs and schools and by reports six hours. Let's say it's three hours. That's suspect. All right, Rashid.
Starting point is 00:32:46 I don't think that. I don't think that's actually foreign to anything that has happened before. So that's happened throughout history going even down. I mean, I have, so very similarly, look at Pearl Harbor. Even at the time, the United States was a very technologically advanced military, and you have these kamikaze airplanes that bypass our radar, and the excuse was the radar man was at sleep at the radar. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:17 Okay. But FDR was praying for war. I'm just saying, 9-11, for almost two. three years, the FBI special agent, I can't remember her name, the female, have been telling everybody that all of these events were happening. But I don't know if y'all remember Bush
Starting point is 00:33:35 when actually 9-11 happened. I recognize it sometime after the fact, looking at his body language and everything. Just to me, my opinion, he knew that was getting ready to happen. So now, it's not, I don't think that it's not far-fetched to say that it's a
Starting point is 00:33:53 possibility that may have happened in Israel itself. But then what if it wasn't Israel, but it was some other thing? Because case and point, a few weeks ago, we had a F-35 just go somewhere. And the rumor is, if you will,
Starting point is 00:34:11 was that it got hacked. So is it possible? And it's the truth because they found the plane like 80 miles or so from where it was. And they said there was another one. And I heard reports about there was somebody ejected and
Starting point is 00:34:26 and they were talking about the pilot and the co-pilot but the F-35 only has one pilot. Right. And it's a fully computerized aircraft and where it can land itself, right? Pretty much. It can land. It can do all that stuff.
Starting point is 00:34:40 Nobody. And we don't really know it because it just disappeared. The whole story is just gone. You know? So I don't. And so I saw a video. I didn't realize my, honestly, I'd never been to the Gaza Strip.
Starting point is 00:34:51 I've been to Tel Aviv and Jaffa, Old City. Jerusalem, but I've never been that far out to to say that I'm some kind of expert on the Gaza strip or anything. However, comma, there's enough information to show you. I didn't know this, that the
Starting point is 00:35:07 IDF actually, and I actually have an IDF T-shirt when I went there because when I I actually was able to participate or experience the Independence Day for Israel. And it was a show. That was the most awesome thing I've ever seen in my life. I could take
Starting point is 00:35:24 some stories. I saw something the plane can do. I was just like, I was like, that is a pilot. But anyway, so the I didn't know that the IDF, that on that border, I don't know if you follow Amir Sarfitti, you should follow him.
Starting point is 00:35:41 And this is how I know Amir Safidi. He is a, he is a Arab Israeli Jew Arab Israeli Jew that, who is a Christian minister, and he goes all over the world now. And he, I get him on telegram and I follow him all the day. He lives in Israel. His family's in Israel.
Starting point is 00:36:04 And he is phenomenal. I mean, just from a ministry standpoint, but also from, he used to be a officer in the IDF. And he was like, I think he was like a commando kind of like type guy, special forces kind of dude. because, you know, he's real fit and everything. He's the man, and he's just really going out preaching the gospel. But he has family there. His family's there. I forget where he said he lives right there.
Starting point is 00:36:31 And all the stuff that was happening was happening. He has friends there. He has family. And he puts out all, he gives out all the information as it comes out. And also, how can we deny that all these events happen in Israel? And I'm going to get back to the border thing real quick. because the Hamas was actually putting all the stuff on TikTok. It was like live.
Starting point is 00:36:54 So. Oh, are you talking about when they were parachuting in with their little doom-booky things? Yes. It was all live. So we can. And this is the thing about COVID and all the things that we've been doing. And when you want to talk about psychological operations, they want to discredit the people that's actually either reporting it or part of it and make you kind of like think that
Starting point is 00:37:17 you crazy kind of thing, or they're trying to make other people think that you're crazy because these organizations have garnered the, if you want, air quotes, the credibility that they are the entity that gives the greatest kind of information in the news. But the unfortunate part is today in the social media world, we have a lot of people with cell phones today, a lot of all these different things. So I'm not going to say that some of the, I'm not going to say that some of the stuff maybe wasn't, maybe that wasn't a fake who could be because now with the AI thing that happened at the Pentagon, you know, a couple of a month or so ago, that doesn't possibly. You know, so we can't, we can't discount that. But there were people that died because I actually have a friend that I went to high school with.
Starting point is 00:38:01 She's in Israel. She lived on a Gaza Strip. And I reached out to her and I asked her, how are you doing? And she said herself, it is crazy. And all the stuff that we hear, she's saying, and this is direct information and knowledge that I'm getting from somebody that's there. And she was able to get to Jerusalem to be safe because she lived on the Gaza. Right. That's exactly where my uncle is right now, too. Yeah. And so I don't understand how people to say that all the stuff that's happening is a lot.
Starting point is 00:38:30 But going back to them on that, and to answer your question is that the IDF is very technologically advanced from the iron dome. and all these other weapon systems that they actually have, airplanes that we've given them from F-16s. I even think they got strike fighters now. Yeah, they got F-15s. But you got to think when we're giving them them. They have them F-16s, too, they have them Tomcats. They gave them them Tomcats.
Starting point is 00:38:57 They had those as well. Rossi. What do you think about Israel's intelligence? Well, in their military, we know it's fantastic. Israel has the Musad, the Shibet, the Shibat. They have some of the best intelligence in the world. When I even know I was there on business, they had people follow you wherever you go.
Starting point is 00:39:23 They were suspicious of me and people that I work with. And that's how they are. How did you know that? And rightfully saw. Hey, were you, and I don't know if you can say this, but were you in a capacity on behalf of the United States when you were there or no? Absolutely. I did fly there on business.
Starting point is 00:39:39 and, you know, they're suspicious of people when they come there and they keep tabs on certain interviews. But how did you know that? Oh, go ahead. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. How did you know they're suspicious of you, though? How did you know that? Did you have a feeling or you saw them or?
Starting point is 00:39:56 No, we know. You just know. We know this. Okay. So I'll tell you, I'll tell you a quick story. One of my, one of my colleagues, I'll say it that way. We went there and when we were on our way, he was really excited. about this new computer that he had.
Starting point is 00:40:12 And he bought it. He was like, it was like there was a Sony Vio computer. It was like he had everything in it. And he was on it. You know, he liked to do music and stuff, whatever. And he was, you know, doing whatever he was on this computer. We got there. We did what we had to do, you know, and we're on a plane going back home.
Starting point is 00:40:32 And he's pushing the button. It's like, man, my computer's not working. So like, what in the world? And I'm like, he's like, I don't know what happened. I said, man, I said, where did you buy it from? I think he said best buy. And then I said, well, you need to take it back because they have the geek squad there and they check the computer out. He called me, after we got, we didn't know what was going on.
Starting point is 00:40:52 So we didn't think much of it. He just thought something happened, bumped or whatever, you know, when he got home and he went to the geeks, why he called me, said, hey, my hard drive is missing. So, oh, absolutely. Like his actual physical hard drive. It was gone. And that is a true story. And how long, okay, how long after y'all got in the country did this happen? Like, so you guys obviously already were at hotel.
Starting point is 00:41:18 It happened within the first 24 hours that we were there. So they know we're there. Because we have to, there's processes to get in and all the other stuff. And they notice you. Obviously, just through your passport system, but the other ways, the other reasons why did they know why we're in the country and we go there. And when we're there, you know, we're able to, you know, you know, see the sites and do things like regular people do and everything else.
Starting point is 00:41:43 But, you know, unfortunately, they want to see what we got to. The Musad is no joke, you know. And explain to the Musad. What is the Musad? What is the Musad? The Musad is their version, is their CIA, if you will. Okay. They are very, very capable of doing sabotage, Intel, counterintel, terrorism, all kinds.
Starting point is 00:42:09 They have capabilities beyond whatever. Do you think they're better than the U.S.? Or do you think they learn from the U.S.? That's a hard call. I think they're just as good of the U.S. I mean, they're, I'm not going to say I've met somebody from the Mousside or anything, or I know anybody, but just what I do know of them, they are very good at what they do.
Starting point is 00:42:35 And very good with, like, gathering intel, using women, and all. And that's another, that's another dynamic that they do that is not as accepted here in America, if you will, even from a military standpoint. A lot of their women are in the military and they're heavily involved in the intel. So just think about if you're a male, you know, they'll send the women with, you know, to be able to get intel. That's like the little Alita program that the Russians had built some time ago. You can talk about the Manchurian candidate product. And drug cartels. drug cartels.
Starting point is 00:43:08 And drug cartels. Absolutely. They absolutely used the females. And they are very good at what they do. And I don't know if you remember, I can't remember who it was, but I was actually in the UAE when this actually happened. When the, when they got, when there was Israeli Musad actually killed, they assassinated that individual in the UAE in the hotel room.
Starting point is 00:43:32 I was there. I was actually in the country when it actually happened. I didn't know what was going on until later on. but it had it was it was early in the morning when they assassinated that individual that was I believe it was an Iranian individual that they had assassinated. I have to refresh my memory on that, but they're very good at what they do. Were you freaking out when, were you freaking out when that happened and you were there? I don't freak out.
Starting point is 00:43:58 I don't freak out with that kind of stuff. I mean, it's expected. You know, I'm not, I'm not no secret spook or nothing. And I'm just a regular guy to does civil service. And, you know, I have, I've done some things for the government just like anybody else does. I had, I had some cool opportunities to see and do some things. And it was a, they have been great experiences, you know, throughout my lifetime, you know. So I'm not, I'm not, I'm not any, I'm not going to sit up here.
Starting point is 00:44:28 Right. And in, in, in, in, in, in, in your opinion with what's going on right. now as far as Israel and Hamas, sorry. Amas. Do you think they, I mean, if you had your own, well, I don't even know if I can even ask you this, if you had an opinion, do you think they knew where they were coming or do you think it was a surprise? Yes, they did.
Starting point is 00:44:52 They had to because, so this is public knowledge is on the news that Egypt had warned them several times. But I'm going to tell you, it's very, it's very highly unlikely. likely, in my opinion, that Israel did not know. They know a lot of stuff. You know, and the U.S. knows a lot of stuff, too. And I'm pretty sure in the back channel somewhere, there was some information that this stuff was going to happen and do what they had to do. Well, then again, in the electronic warfare era that we're actually in, I mean, I have to also maybe think that maybe there was some kind of virus or something that stopped all this equipment
Starting point is 00:45:40 from working when it was supposed to. I don't know. Because going back to the previous thing, Israel has, they have like these, I don't know if you've seen like a MA TV or Max Pro kind of a vehicle. They're like these, they're like these drones. They're actually full ground drones. They're not air drones. They're the, they're the like robot vehicles that patrol the border. And their vehicles. And I was like, wow, I didn't even know they had that. You know, and these vehicles can detect things. They have like seismic kind of like how you detect a earthquake, if I'm not mistaken, that they can detect that.
Starting point is 00:46:19 We kind of have something like that here on our border cameras and videos. And I even think they have this thing to where if something happens, drones will go up in the air and start searching an area for, you know, any kind of potential targets of movements and everything. So I just, it is, it is very, very highly suspect. I'm not, I don't, I don't think I have enough knowledge to be able to say it was Netanyahu. I kind of like Netanyahu myself. He's been a great leader for the country. I do too. And I think that, but to that point with Netanyahu, because I, you know, your brother, by the way, Sherry had mentioned.
Starting point is 00:46:58 And I think your brother had admiration for Netanyahu. Yeah. Your brother's met Netanyahu before. And to that point, I've actually always kind of liked Netanyahu as well. And, you know, the media has been trying to, like, twist and turn comments recently from Trump about things he said about, you know, they're trying to make it out. And even on Fox News, right, which is a pro-Republican news source. They're trying to make out what Trump said about Hamas, about how, well, you're either smart to do what you did, which Trump's not saying that they're right. He's just saying that like...
Starting point is 00:47:31 They were smart. Something is messed up. Yeah. And Trump was like, you know, look, Netanyahu. I have no idea how they would have not known this and so on. But can I ask you both one question real quick? If they were coming on on these para-sailing thing, mageeges, would the Iron Dome not get them?
Starting point is 00:47:53 No, no, no. Because Iron Dome... Or is it just for, like, missiles. Yeah, Iron Dome is mostly for missiles. It's not for paragliders that are under... certain altitude or whatever yeah um rushid i got i got to ask you and by the way i want to mention this too because you know we've talked before this podcast and i know your brother and all that stuff um i want number one thank you for your service to this country and and and you know the reason
Starting point is 00:48:20 why i have to say that is because on this podcast we we discuss and talk about openly um the things that we feel like are wrong with everything around the world, but in particular, there's country. And something we've often said about federal or government or any of that stuff is like, it's not necessarily always the people. It is the leadership. It is the politics. It is all of these things. So regardless, I just want to thank you for your service because I think that we need, like if we could put everyone into positions in government or whatever that is like you, we would be so much better off. So I want to thank you for that. number one. And I want to touch back on real quick, given money to both sides, right?
Starting point is 00:49:08 Even with Hamas or Hezbollah or whatever, why do we do this? I mean, I know that sounds like a similar question to why I said, why do we give money to Iran? But in particular, don't we fund actual kind of terrorist organizations or at least money that we know, even besides Iran? Are you saying that we fund Iran and that's how we fund Hezbollah or Hamas? Or do we actually fund potentially Hamas and Hezbollah directly? I'd be honest with you. So you got to remember this. The way that they normally do it, keep this in mind.
Starting point is 00:49:45 Money is fungible. So by no means, I don't know how they actually do these things. But money is always fungible, which means that. that if you look at all the support and all of the aid that was given to Iran over the year, I mean to the Gaza and the Gaza Strip where they were getting all this aid to build water and sewage infrastructure, they were actually taking the pipes and they were building bombs and missiles. So I'm giving it to you for food and water. Now let's go back to the Saddam Hussein, the oil for food.
Starting point is 00:50:26 program. Money is fungible. We're not going to give it directly to Saddam Hussein. And we helped get Saddam Hussein in office. And then we wanted to kill him later. You know, I think those are the kinds of questions that Americans ask, you know, so we help get him into power. But then now he's the greatest enemy on the earth. But then through the oil for food program, that's how he was getting all the money. You know, I mean, because money's fungible. It wasn't directly giving it to his bank account like, hey, I'm paying you. But
Starting point is 00:51:01 there are avenues and ways that this stuff happens. I mean, how do our politicians get money? They can only by law take so much money from an individual. Look at Denishtes Sousa. He's the only person that was put into jail for giving
Starting point is 00:51:21 a couple of hundred dollars more than what he was supposed to do to a campaign in history because Obama didn't like him because he did the movie about him and he started exposing a lot of Obama's deep dark secrets. Oh, yeah. You know, so I don't know why we,
Starting point is 00:51:38 well, we keep doing it because it's kind of like what Rome had did during their time frame to have power across the world. There's a book, there's a six-volume book by Edward Gibbon. And I've been, I was kind of trying to thumb through it a little bit.
Starting point is 00:51:59 It's called The Decline and the Fall of the Roman Empire. And almost the same thing is that's what the Roman Empire did to all these other organizations that come up under the Roman Empire. But when you make it, when it's too big, it implodes on itself. And I kind of think that that's what happens is America is trying to stay on top. as the world power, which we are, or maybe were, depending on how you look at it from an economic standpoint, you know, and how China has been playing chess and checkers,
Starting point is 00:52:34 but then China's having some problems right now. So, but I think it's kind of like we try to pay it forward to be able to keep our footing across the world to be able to be in charge. And I think some, I think what happens is maybe the intentions, And most likely in many cases, the intentions are good, depending on the individual, but they depart from their moral values. And we start dibble and dabbling to other things. And, you know, as they say, the idle mind is the devil's workshop. And a lot of these people, you know, that we put in political power, they're paid off a lot of times too.
Starting point is 00:53:18 And money talks. Yeah. They have ideas. They have ideas of what they want to do. Rashid, let me ask you this. This is going to be a tougher question. It's probably going to be a toughest question you have all night. But, um, so we have, we have Hamas, which we've already talked about, obviously went into Israel and they killed innocent civilians.
Starting point is 00:53:40 Um, they also killed IDF soldiers and so on. Now, regards of how that happened and why it happened or all the surrounding things, um, you have this situation right now, right? We talked a little bit earlier about we have all these battleships and all these carriers and destroyers and you name it headed to the Mediterranean or headed that area. We have these aircraft, the P8 Poseidon, which is basically the new version of a P3 Orion, which, you know, the P8 Poseidon is essentially a dreamliner, which is the military version of a dreamliner, but it is a, you know, submarine hunter. You also have the Royal Air Force, which has a similar aircraft there, which is always a. also a, I guess, submarine-type hunter aircraft. You have all these aircraft in the area, and you have a potential setup for a massive war-type situation.
Starting point is 00:54:33 First question I want to get to, though, is that as we have talked about these terrorists, which I believe 100% Hamas is, they came into Israel, they killed civilians, and now we're obviously... Well, it's not they just, they didn't just kill civilians, but they killed children and teenagers and babies and all that stuff. And I think the difference between them and Israel is Israel is sending all these notes in the air. Like, you have 72 hours to get out of here.
Starting point is 00:55:07 We don't want to kill you. Get out. Whatever. Yeah. And so I guess my question and point to this is is, you know, now obviously we have protests around the world, pro-Palestinian protest. is essentially they're trying to turn the tables of Israel is going to be the terrorist, right? And how do you look and play this situation as Israel, right? I mean, you know, if you're pro-Jew, pro-Christian, whatever, because I think that in reality, if we look at this from a reality standpoint,
Starting point is 00:55:45 I do think that Palestinians and people in the Gaza Strip in that area, although I I never advocate for killing civilians in any conflict, right, at all. But if you look at Palestinians and you look at kind of the viewpoint, I guess, and I don't know if this is indoctrination or whatever the case is, but, you know, we do know that just recently they are trying to start pushing the narrative of we need to bring in potentially, I don't know, what was it, 100,000 or a million Palestinian refugees. And, you know, and DeSantis said, you know, which DeSantis came out and he said, look, we can't
Starting point is 00:56:29 bring in this amount of refugees into our country that are anti-Jew. Right. They are anti-Jew. They're anti-Christian. What is, how do you play this as Israel? Because obviously, you know, we understand. They're in a tough spot. Yeah, they're in a tough spot.
Starting point is 00:56:49 But what do you do? I mean, you can't let Hamas just be like, well, see, we're just going to hide behind the Palestinians and we're going to make sure these protests erupt. What do you do in that situation? Because I don't know. But I do know. I know what I would do, but I'm not going to say. I'll be honest with you, with all that. If you look at what's happened in Italy, France, and even in America with the.
Starting point is 00:57:19 the protests for Palestine. What's very inconsistible is the vast support that we get in America, especially from our most premier institutions, Harvard and Yale. As a matter of fact, I don't know if you saw just yesterday, there was an associate professor at Yale University who happened to be Palestinian. And she was going in about how Palestine, is great and this step the other. And within 24 hours,
Starting point is 00:57:53 they have 40,000 signatures to oust her as an associate professor. That's not what we subscribe to in America. And that's not, so we, this is a, I guess this is a great area. And this is just me, my opinion.
Starting point is 00:58:09 If the problem that we have now is that we've, we're sleeping with the enemy, literally. And we've been doing it for many, many years because we've had the, the World Trade Center bomb. than obviously 9-11. And then even other historical events that have happened in America, even overseas, Beirut bombing, so on and so forth,
Starting point is 00:58:28 with terrorism, domestic terrorism, things in nature. So we have these issues in America. However, this is one that would more so inviting en masse, if you will. Because even when Afghanistan fell, we brought over thousands of Afghans. I'll just say this, many of them didn't even want to come. And they hate America. They were forced some of them were forced to get on on the planes, I guess, to a degree. And there were even instances where some of the Taliban were taking the passports of those getting on the planes,
Starting point is 00:59:02 getting on the planes to come to America, acting as if they were the person that they had pretty either left or killed in Afghanistan. So we have to properly vet these people, which we do decently. but then again we don't. When we look at our border, our southern border, it's not anything secret or top secret or anything that they found Chinese nationalists over. They found 98 people that came over that we know of that were on the terrorist watch list.
Starting point is 00:59:34 So now when you talk about the Palestine, what scares me is this, the attitude that we have by so many that are pro-Palestine for the actions that Palestine had taken. And it's not all Palestinian. And the thing is, I think we have to kind of separate Palestinian people and Hamas. Exactly. And I think that that's where the great area is because there are a lot of Palestinian people like, look, I just want to go to work.
Starting point is 00:59:59 I want to take care of my family. And I don't want to do anything with the Hamas people. Exactly. You know. But, but they still live there. You know, and some people, and I don't know them directly, but we can't blanket just everybody. in that situation. However, the Hamas has used these people as their shields. Right. And to be able to do their dirty deeds. Case of the point, we can't blanket every Chinese person
Starting point is 01:00:27 because of the CCP. The CCP technically is a little separate from the Chinese people. So they're Chinese people. They just want to go to work. They just want to live life, do what they do, and be happy and be married. But the problem that we have in America is a lot of issues, especially when it comes down to communism, socialism being taught in how not critical race theory, but critical theory, was taught in our educational system that caused a lot of the people that are not nationalists to Palestine or any other organization,
Starting point is 01:01:01 but the ideologies that they were taught, they believe it. And that is a ploy of the Chinese of the CCP, which they've been trying to do as part of their 100-year plan for many, many years to tank our, education system that started through the Frankfurt School that started in New York after the Second World War after the Nazi regime had fallen and that institute, that thinking came into America and it has infiltrated our education system. And that's why we're seeing so much to the socialism, all this. Socialism always leads to communism. There's not one communist country that has ever
Starting point is 01:01:41 survive at all through history. And what happens is now we have all these people here and they're exhibiting literal violence and acts of violence and attitudes towards people. To me personally, you're a threat. Right. And I think that that should be very concerning. It is. To the United States because now we're making, in my opinion, homegrown terrorists because
Starting point is 01:02:09 because we've allowed this ideology to perpetuate through our school systems. But then now we have nationalists, even down to when we have a congresswoman who is flying her flag in the U.S. Calls of Congress. Yes. Yes. That is an oxymor. Yeah. And to your point, too, is like, allowed. No. And you're so right about how we are changing children.
Starting point is 01:02:31 Sorry, Chad, go ahead. No, I guess my point was is that, you know, but the government here is more concerned about MAGA extremist or these white supremacists, which are just raging through the streets. But we got to also remember the Democrat Party is the is the father of white supremacy.
Starting point is 01:02:54 And this is coming from a black male in America who doesn't understand the history from Reconstruction. There was no big switch and all this other stuff. That's all alive. And so you have the Democrat party that created, who the Diction Cratts that created this party and that same type, these are the people that's running the country right now.
Starting point is 01:03:15 That's what I'm saying. Look at, look at Jim Crow, we call Jim Crow Joe. I know that they use that. 2.0. But the bottom line is, if you look at his history, I'm talking about receipts, he created the 1985 crime. He created a crime bill, which put more black males in prison than, from my understanding, And then what actually happened even during Jim Crow era. And for basic crimes, too, right?
Starting point is 01:03:46 Like, I mean, these are. And for the three strikes are out. That's what it came from and all that. And it perpetuated through the system to where it did it. There's so many different things. He even eulogized the Grand Cyclops, his buddy, from West Virginia, and said he was his best friend. I have a lot of questions about this man's character and his background, but even his party.
Starting point is 01:04:09 Even down to the fact that they've used black Americans pretty much a lot to perpetuate a lot of the ideologies and the strategies of the Democrat Party on Americans. The truth be told is when you look at history, Republicans are the ones that helped to the ones that voted to in slavery, emancipation proclamation, civil rights era, Republicans, even down to the alert with the, not the Amber Alert, the Ashanti alert. The Republicans passed that. And then now Gavin Newsom wants to do the Ebony Alert, but that was already taken care of under Trump. And so it has nothing to do with Trump. It's just grabbed to where this one institution wants to take all this power.
Starting point is 01:04:58 And so going back to the Palestinians, my opinion, at some point, you have to expel a lot of these people. We've got to get rid of them. Revoking visas, student visas, and all these other things. Another problem that we have is because we don't utilize our immigration system, the way it's supposed to be utilized and how it was designed. What's supposed to happen is we use this term when people, when I was a drill sergeant, you have to take a citizen, a citizen, and inculcate them into the culture of the military. And what that means is that now that person leaves their culture where it was and they become part of the new culture that they wanted to be part of. Now, is that 100% how we should do things?
Starting point is 01:05:52 Maybe not because I think I love culture. I like the aspects of different places that I've been to and how they do it. But the problem is that now where I go, I can't even talk to anybody because they don't. speak English or they speak in whatever other language that they come from. They have not, they have not, um, uh, cultureized themselves to the United States. It's where they are. They talk about impact. Well, go back to Pakistan or go back to wherever that you were, but this is America. This is how we do things. Right. Right. And we're a little bit different. And we're losing English, pretty much. Yeah, we're losing America. We are, we are, we are losing that.
Starting point is 01:06:27 And it's, I don't have a problem with the melting pot, but I know a lot of people that come from many different countries from Cuba, Venezuela, you know, a lot of these with Chavez and all these different people around the world where they had communism. And they came to Americans. That's what they were trying to get away from. And guess what? They want to be an American. I remember growing up in New York and I grew up around the Haitians, Jamaicans, you had little Italy, you know, all the different. But guess what? They was walking around with the food food. You know, they were trying to be, they were trying to, they were to, I don't want to I don't want to associate with where I came from Poland or whatever country they were in. They want to be an American.
Starting point is 01:07:08 I'm here. But now it's not that anymore. Yeah. Yeah. They want to shit on America. Pardon my language. A lot of these people do. And by the way, I think that's being perpetuated by people in our own country.
Starting point is 01:07:22 Like Americans. It is pretty sweet. It goes back to schools. It goes back to the education system. It's the education system. Yes. And that's a big issue. So if you really look at it.
Starting point is 01:07:33 it, see, they used, the thing about it is, it's called critical theory. It's not critical race theory. Critical theory was, in Nazi Germany, when they developed it, they took sociologists, anthropologists. They took all kinds of like academia from theologians all the way down to politicians and this, that, the other, and they studied culture from many aspects. And they developed this theory to be able to create social change, which in their mind, they wanted to create the socialist-type regimes like, yeah, Stalinism, Leninism, you know, all these, types of mindsets to where they wanted to change social society. I helped my wife write a paper, and I was doing some research, because I didn't know a whole lot about, they kept saying
Starting point is 01:08:23 critical race theory. Well, I get that, you know, the Abraham Kendi X and all these crazy things where he have to use racism to fight racism. It doesn't, it doesn't, that's an oxymoron. And that doesn't solve the problem. And so critical theory, the basis of critical theory, and I have to tell you this, it needs and requires, based upon their research, it requires chaos in order to create social change. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:08:50 So every time, so that's critical theory. Because what it's trying to do, it's trying to bring society to a critical break, breaking point we're especially in America. See, we are not a democracy. We are a constitutional republic. People don't understand. He stopped saying we're a democracy. We are a constitutional republic.
Starting point is 01:09:12 Why is that? Why is that so important? A democracy is a government that's led by people, governed by the people. But what we are, we are a constitutional republic. And we have this document called the U.S. Constitution that nobody can change. and they've been trying to change it for many, many years that was written by the forefathers of America and it can't change it.
Starting point is 01:09:34 And we are based off of our Constitution and that document remains almost the same as it was when it was first written. If we were in a Democratic Republic, we would have been changing stuff every day by every wind and this and the other. They've been trying to do that. But they've confused people to think that we're not.
Starting point is 01:09:55 We are a constitutional republic. in case and point, it's just like the Bible or the law, the Torah. So you have, you have, you have the, you have this law that God wrote, and you can't change that law. No matter what you do to try to change it, you can, you can have meetings, you can do whatever you want to do, but that, that's not going to change the foundation of anything. You can do whatever you want, but when you, when you scrape away all that other junk, the document is the document. and they have been trying to find ways to circumvent the document of the Constitution so that people can have this power. But unfortunately, if you look at Rome, Rome was a Democrat Republic.
Starting point is 01:10:39 It was a republic. The Republic of Rome, that's why it fell. And if you look at like the, and if you go historically, they wanted to change it so much. They actually killed their leader at the podium. All the senators came up, I believe it was Caligula. they stabbed him like 40-something, seven, 40-something times at the podium.
Starting point is 01:10:59 They killed their own leader. That's how much they wanted to change Rome. And eventually, we know that Rome fell. You know what? That sounds kind of familiar. What? I'm just saying, you know.
Starting point is 01:11:12 So I think that, I think that we have to realize that. And I really think that with this situation, it is very concerning because let me, I'm going to tell you about this. I'm going to pull this up. So to show you how grave it is and that we're sleeping with the enemy, I'm going to pull this up real quick.
Starting point is 01:11:34 Hey, why you pulled up and be thinking about this? Because I do want to ask you, I want to make sure you touch on this, sleeper cells in the United States, why you're pulling it up, by the way. Go ahead. That's what I'm getting. You see, we're on the same page. That's what I want. That's exactly what it's going to tell.
Starting point is 01:11:53 you. So when it comes to sleeper cells, that has been obviously a big threat for many, many, many, years in the United States as to the sleeper cells. Now, when it comes to the current situation that we're in, I think is even, I think my people don't know this. So there's a gentleman that I like to listen to and I follow. And I think you all should get them on Twitter and everything. His name is Todd Binsman. Todd Binsman. Todd Binsman used to be the, like, he was deep in Texas DPS intelligence. He actually, he's like probably one of the best reporters of everything that's happening on the border.
Starting point is 01:12:40 And if you want to learn about some real, like, investigative reporting and information about what's going on the border, you need to, you need to be listening to Todd Binsman in with. he writes, I believe he even has a substack that you can go to. The enforcement part, there's so much information out there you can get overwhelmed. But if you go back, and I didn't know this until I didn't know. So here recently, I don't know if everybody even realized this. So two Iranian, there was a high level Iranian spiring that was busted up in Washington. This just happened this past week. And so there was a gentleman.
Starting point is 01:13:21 there was on the Iranian envoy, Robert Malley, he was helping funding the support and direct and an Iranian intelligence operation that was designed to influence the United States. They just, he worked for the State Department. They just caught him. There's an article just go up, high-level Iranian spiring, busted in Washington. You'll start seeing the articles come up about him. They just got him. And he worked for our government.
Starting point is 01:13:53 He worked. He worked for our government. Well, they just got him. It says here they have emails that were, which were reported by Wall Street, by the Wall Street Journal by Jay Solomon. Jay Solomon is a very, very well-known investigative reporter, and he broke the story and ended up causing this guy, Robert Malley, M-A-L-L-E-Y, to be now. suspended from the State Department in very key positions that had Iranian influence on our government to where now what I say money is fungible. This is how we support in Iran because he held that ideology from critical theory and he was very sympathetic to the Iranian regime and all this other people, right? Right. So that's one person. There was a female that worked for
Starting point is 01:14:44 the, that worked for Chris Mayer. Chris Mayer, I actually had the, I, I've, Chris Mayer, he worked for Department of Defense, and his chief of staff, they just arrested her here in these past two weeks because of her connections to the Iranian regime. The other thing, too, when you look at, here's another one. There's an article by Matthew Levitt by the Washington East Institute for near-east policy. He just wrote a, well, in 2019, August 4th, 2019, he wrote a paper inside Hezbollah American Sleeper cells, waiting for Iran signal to strike the U.S. and Israeli targets. So he, this is an article that was written August 4th, 2019 by him. It was a policy analysis document that he wrote.
Starting point is 01:15:42 And basically when he was, when he was sharing was there terror cells in the United States by the Iranian government. let me take you back a little further. Does anybody remember where General Soleimani told President Trump, quote unquote, we are closer to you than you think. And immediately sometime after that Trump bombed him, he got, he was dead. Yeah. So Solomani was actually telegraphing the fact that, hey, I got some, I got something that you don't know about.
Starting point is 01:16:15 Well, Todd Benzman broke a story early. Early in around 2018, here's an article that he wrote in 2018 on PJ Media. It's very good. Hezbollah in America, Unit 910, exposed in court proceedings. So there are some classified court proceedings with this group of Hezbollah that's in the United States called Unit 910. And so this is like the basis of the story. The Bronx-based Al-Courini, the Ali-Korini, A-L-I-K-O-U-R-A-N-I, faces trial for multiple charges related to his work as a double agent for the U.S. designated terrorist group, Hezbollah,
Starting point is 01:17:03 specifically for its external security organization known as Unit 910, Unit 910. Wow. Coriani's federal trial is technically set for March 2019. That was back then. and I really haven't heard much about it, but Todd Benjamin broke this story about unit 910. And as you read what was going on, you'll see that a lot of these individuals were immigrating into America, whether legally or however they were getting here. And two things, what they noticed, they were using to be able to fund the Hezbollah back in Iran, what they were doing was they were using these used car dealerships. So I don't know if you noticed a lot of the
Starting point is 01:17:46 used card partnerships were foreign folks. Foreign people. I love foreign people. I love my people from foreign countries. And gas stations too. And all that stuff. The other thing was, I believe it was these the little gift cards. That was the other thing they were doing.
Starting point is 01:18:07 And so then you have that organization called Care, which is an organization, should have been shut down in the United States because they fund terrorism. And what they do is they're able to operate as a nonprofit organization in the United States. And they fund money basically for terrorism. And you have two of your U.S. Congress people supporting it. And everybody knows, even the government knows that these people are funneling money. If they can sit up here and get tax records from Trump to try to get him on charges that he didn't do anything that he overestimated his building, which every real estate person did in America, I'm pretty sure they can get nonprofit organization cares information and figure out that, hey, they're not really just funding their social programs.
Starting point is 01:19:03 They're funding terrorism. And we've known this for years. And within America. Oh, 9-11. Huh? And within America, right here. And within America, they're doing it. And guess what?
Starting point is 01:19:13 A lot of the Americans are supporting it. So what is everybody's agenda? I don't know. You know, the funny thing is, is like, you know, we talked earlier, which I won't go into all that tonight. But we did talk earlier before the podcast. And I think there are avenues to turn consensus towards a ideology, right? And I think, you know, you can look at events in history. you can look at things, you know, look at the past 10 years, what's happened with America and
Starting point is 01:19:42 ideologies and thought processes and racism and this and this and this and this. But yet in turn, right, if, and I don't know if you want to mention this, but I think, well, I don't even know if I can say this because then I might be giving away what. So what I'm saying is you. The government is trying to divide and conquer. But listen. Divide in conquer. Divide and conquer.
Starting point is 01:20:03 But I think that's all they want to do. I think I can say this because Rashid has been on this podcast. So I think I can say this. But someone's podcast you've been on, you know, when we had talked about kind of, but like sciop type of stuff, right? And we don't get to get into that. We don't get to get into that. I'm just trying to say what you've told me that you were on publicly.
Starting point is 01:20:22 When you talk about sciop type stuff, you know, a lot of what you're saying and exactly what you just said is like, how do we get, how do we have this many people on board with this stuff? how much of that could be a SIOP using other avenues, right? Using things that are, you know, America-based, whether it be anti-law enforcement, anti-this, anti-that. And then, you know, with the Israel-Palestine conflict, now you have a massive faction of people that are protesting in the streets for Palestine, right? And meanwhile, I have never seen so many people go against Israel as I do today. Ever, yeah.
Starting point is 01:21:00 Like, I've never seen this in the history of my life. life. It's just so weird to see people going a different route for I don't know why. And I guess we did bring up like education and now kids are being indoctrinated and all those things. But it's just crazy to me to see this on the streets and people protesting this. Yeah. And so in the last thing I'll say, is this a long term play, right? Like I mean, does that make any sense? Like, I mean, is it is potentially things we've been seeing for 10 years? Is it a long term play to someone somewhere? You know, I think with, so right now we are in a very precarious time with geopolitics,
Starting point is 01:21:46 with ESG, with U.S. and in the brink of politics. Look at what's happening with the EU. They're trying to start these with now going to cryptocurrencies and all this other kind of stuff. In order to be able to, there's a, hold on, I posted something, some time, go and let me see if I can find it. Yeah. And so I think what we're finding is, is that in order to grab the power
Starting point is 01:22:20 that you need, you need an emergency. And I think what we've learned, what we've learned is through COVID, that how much of a power grab that was able to be made through COVID, they understand that they need an emergency. And there was this there was this post that I put up. If you allow the government to break the law for an emergency,
Starting point is 01:22:48 they will create emergencies to break the law. I love that quote. That is so true, though. Yes. Yeah. And so I love Israel, but I also think now this is just me, Rashid, because I think there's also,
Starting point is 01:23:07 this is the natural aspect of it, but I also think there's a spiritual aspect to it from that. And like I'm saying, I think that all of this as well, you know, from, and I look at this from also the spiritual lens, is that there's a spiritual battle over Israel. Why? It's because in the book of Revelation at the end, technically speaking, Israel becomes the capital of the world, period. in the book of Zechariah, it says this. And it says, on that day, I will make Jerusalem an immovable rock. This is the new living translation. And it says, and all the nations will gather against it to try to move it, but they will hurt themselves.
Starting point is 01:23:54 So, and this is Zechariah, the prophet, talking about how everybody will try to remove Jerusalem. everybody, not just the Hamas or the, the, you're right, everyone. The world, but the world will. And, and there's this great battle over, this is the funny thing. Israel is surrounded by the five largest Muslim nations. Yes. And they're fighting over a size of, just of a small town. New Jersey, basically.
Starting point is 01:24:24 The Holy Land, but they're surrounded by Muslim countries. Well, I'm talking about, I'm talking about, I'm talking about God. You know? Oh, yeah, yeah. The problem that I have with this is that people don't understand this. Israel was given to God as the promised land, not by the UN with the two-parties, two-state solution in the 1940s. Right. And Israel became a nation.
Starting point is 01:24:50 Israel was a nation biblically back in the book of kings. Right. When Saul became king over Israel and then later David. So Israel has been a nation for many, many, many, many years, over 3,000 years. But then they're fighting, but then a nation, Britain, when they came up with the two-state solution for Israel, they became a nation. And technically speaking, if people really understand Israel, the star David is not their official symbol. It's the menorah of the Jewish people. The real symbol of the Jewish people is the menorah.
Starting point is 01:25:32 Because of the Maccabees? Excuse me? Because of the Maccabees? No, no, no. The menorah. The menorah is the tree of light. The menorah is the candle stand that they actually have. Right.
Starting point is 01:25:44 Because the Maccabees went to war and they had only three days of oil and it lasted eight days. Yeah, okay. I was trying to catch you. Yeah, yeah. You're exactly right. Right. And so my point basically is saying that Israel has such a rich history. But the land was promised to Israel.
Starting point is 01:26:05 Israel was also given instructions many, many times throughout the scriptures to where even God even told Israel to clean them all, kill the, kill the husband, kill the father, the mother, the father, the children, even the dog, the cat, and the roaches. Wipe them all out. Yep. And at that time, they had a blood on their. on the outside of their houses. And they were given instructions not to not to intermingle with all the other races
Starting point is 01:26:36 only because this was God's chosen people because he realized at the time that if they did it would be influenced to do other things, in case and point like Solomon. Solomon had over 2,000 concubines. And what ended up happening with Solomon, he had great wisdom. But he was turned away from
Starting point is 01:26:55 everything. So what, and so I think that what I'm saying is this is also not, we see the natural part, but I think there's a spiritual battle behind it over Israel, because Israel is the, is the epicenter of this of the earth for all mankind. I totally agree. And by the way, Rashid, I want to say one thing, because my mom, we've done this podcast for five years, right? My mom's, you know, I grew up Christian, whatever. But my mom sent me a text tonight and she said, which is weird, right? And by the way, I never even told, I told mom, I said, you know, we're doing a podcast on Israel, Palestine, yeah, blah, blah. And we've also done two prior to this.
Starting point is 01:27:43 But my mom sent me a text and she said, I will pray for you and Sherry tonight for your podcast. Love you both. It's weird because she's never ever sent me that message tonight. Well, you made me forget my next point, though. But thank you, Mom. No, but what I'm saying is, is like, you know, there's a lot of, you know, growing up a Christian, you always say protect Israel. Protect Israel, the whole nine. And, you know, with the whole thing of like, is this a spiritual, religious battle?
Starting point is 01:28:14 Is it? I mean, I don't know, because I guess a lot of people. Oh, that was my point. That was my point. I think it should be a religious battle. But the problem is. is across the world, we have made religion the bad guy, the bad person. If you are religious, if you're a Christian, if you're a Jewish person, if you believe in God,
Starting point is 01:28:33 you're not no longer a good person. You know, it's the opposite. I can answer the question for you because I've been teaching on the beatitudes. We have a, my wife and I, we do a lot. So we have a church too. We planted here. And we, every Sunday, we have service. And I can tell you what the answer is on that.
Starting point is 01:28:56 And as the reason for when it comes to us as Christians and the reason why we should be praying for Israel. And it comes out of Romans chapter 11. It's very simple. But the problem is that with what we have to understand as Gentiles being not being Jews, the Jews are the chosen people of God. Paul addressed this to the Roman church. The reason why he addressed it to the Roman church, because at the time at the genesis of the Roman church, you had Jewish Christians coming in believers,
Starting point is 01:29:32 Messianic Jews, if you want to call them that, and you had these Gentiles, Gentile Christians that were coming in, and they were having clashes within the Roman church, within the Roman church that was being developed at the time. But the thing about it was, the only reason why Gentiles were brought in were to provoke the Jews back to God.
Starting point is 01:29:53 The reason why? Because they didn't see the Messiah, Mishiah. They didn't realize the Mishak had come. Jesus, the Messiah. Right. They didn't think Jesus was the Messiah. Yeah. Right.
Starting point is 01:30:05 And so Paul said this. Paul said this. And even with this, it even goes to this battle to maybe have some semblance of understanding what's going on. Paul even mentioned it in, in this text as to what the responsibility of the Jews were that they failed to do. And then we have all these problems. And he even stated that for I myself am an Israelite, a descendant of Abraham, a member of the tribe of Benjamin, God had not rejected his people whom he foreknew.
Starting point is 01:30:36 Do you not know what the scripture says of Elijah, how he appeals to God against Israel? Lord, they have killed your prophets and demolish your altars. and I am alone left, but he says, and God replied to him, I have kept for myself 7,000 more to have not bowed to the knee of Ba'a al-Bail. And then it goes down to, and then he said, in verse 70, says, what then? Israel failed to obtain what, what it was seeking, meaning the Messiah, the Messiah. They're still looking for the Messiah. Most of the Jews, not all, most of them, you have your Hasidic rabbinical, your reformed Jews. and then you have your messianic Jews and they have some other sects of denominations and all this other kind of stuff.
Starting point is 01:31:22 And what they did was they take Torah, the Tanak, the Tebivine, the Ketuvim, and the Nevoin, the law the prophets and the writings. And they've come up with all these different theories and theologies, basically trying to circumvent the Constitution that God had, which is the law,
Starting point is 01:31:38 to create this whole thing. And then they miss God. They miss the Messiah, the Mishak. And so what Paul said, what Paul was even saying later, here in the scripture, he was talking about the Gentiles being grafted in. This is what he said. He says, so I asked, did they stumble in order that they might fall? And he says, by no means.
Starting point is 01:32:01 Rather, through their trespass, salvation has come to the Gentiles, so as to make Israel jealous. So the only reason why we have the benefit of having a. salvation experience is because the Jews failed at finding the understanding that the Messiah had come to bring us all back. So he grafted us in. But the thing about it is this, the evangelicals and all these other people, the Baptist, the Methodists and everybody else, they think that they've obtained everything better than the Jewish people have. At the end of the day, whether they get it or not, they are God's chosen people because Paul even, he specifies to the world that he says, and he basically he specifies to the world that regardless of what happens when they come back,
Starting point is 01:32:56 it's even going to be a greater celebration for God when he brings the Jews back. I'm just paraphrasing because I don't want to belabor the time there. But then he says, in verse 13, he says, now I'm speaking to you Gentiles. Inasmuch then as I am an apostle to the Gentiles, he says, I magnify my ministry. in order that somehow to make my fellow Jews jealous and to save some, save some of them. For if their rejection means the reconciliation of the world, what will their acceptance mean but life from the dead? And then he comes down and he says, this is the most important part.
Starting point is 01:33:32 But if some of the branches were broken off and you, talking about us, Gentiles, although a wild olive shoe, were grafted in among others, the others, Now share in the nourishing root of the olive tree. Don't be arrogant towards the branches. If you are, remember, it is not you who support the root, but it's the root that supports you. Wow. And so this is the thing. If the tree dies, we die.
Starting point is 01:34:04 That was what I told the church today. This is so powerful. So we have a responsibility to Israel. That's crazy. And this is so powerful to, like, even people like me that struggle. But, like, to me, like, I feel. She struggled. Sorry.
Starting point is 01:34:22 Rushid. I struggle with religion every day because of this whole thing that you're. Jesus versus Jews. Pretty much preaching about right now. And you're bringing, like, tears to my eyes right now. Kind of did me too a little bit. Wow. I'm just like, wow.
Starting point is 01:34:38 Oh, my God. But no, you literally eloquently explained. why, yeah, we're Gentiles, but, but I think you 100% explain that. I mean, I don't know, that's nuts. That's crazy what you just did. But you just. That's amazing. And so, and I think it's God in him.
Starting point is 01:34:56 That we see. All the depravity of the world and everything. Jesus said, these things must be. He said, you're going to hear wars and rumors of wars and kingdoms of kings. And he said, you're going to see nations against nations. that word nations, and the Greek is ethnos, which means ethnicities or culture. You're going to see cultural wars, and you're going to see kingdoms, Basilia, the kingdom, the actual kingdoms against kingdom.
Starting point is 01:35:22 And he said, these things must be. So they're going to happen. And I mean, but we are natural people, right? We have a volition. We think we want, we feel. We're experiencing all of this stuff that's around us. And we're seeing all these things. we're trying to make sense of everything.
Starting point is 01:35:42 But at the end of the day, it's like I always ask, what's really driving all this stuff? And all this stuff that's happening with the ships and all the different things, yes, I do believe this is the genesis, the beginnings of moving into a World War III. But people, what the evangelical church
Starting point is 01:36:03 or the Western theology has done is that they've taken all of this stuff and they think that they mastered everything. I will, there's a gentleman that I love. He's a, he passed away, excuse me, earlier this year, Dr. Michael Heiser. He is a phenomenal theologian,
Starting point is 01:36:20 and I loved, I loved, he changed my mind on so many different things, but just by listening and just listening to his information about the Old Testament. And, and so what we need to not stop doing is using the Book of Revelation as a tool to all this eschatological, kind of stuff. Right. Because the eschatology, truth be told, of the book of Revelation, has already been satisfied pretty much because with the book of Revelation, the John of Patmos, not the Apostle John, it was the Elder John. It was another John because he had to understand
Starting point is 01:36:57 the Tanak. He had to understand the whole Hebrew arrival. He was very well versed in all these texts. And he was even given some scripts, and you can go to the book of Enoch. Enoch, you know, you can go to the whole book of Pino. I study and be able to understand that a lot of stuff has already happened, but we're trying to apply what happened to Rome to us. Right. Now, that doesn't mean we can't, we don't derive lessons from it, but we've made this theology and we beat people over the head with this stuff
Starting point is 01:37:25 and we scared of living crap out of people, and because we don't have an understanding on all the information. And guess what? Some of the stuff is just a mystery. We just don't know. I'm just going to tell you, I don't know everything. But first James says, if any man lack wisdom, let him ask God. And God would give to that man very bountifully.
Starting point is 01:37:47 And he will give you what you need. But there's a whole lot. There's a process to be able to be able to observe all those things that. See all these things happening right now. It is a sign of the time. Stuff is happening. And I do think that we're getting ready to go to an unnecessary war. But if it doesn't happen, then a lot of the things the evil in the world that we see may not be eradicated.
Starting point is 01:38:16 But the other part to that is the Jews have to do their job. The Jews have to come into the knowledge of the Messiah. The Jews have to, at some point, realize, and it even talks about in there, how they will weep when they realize what they missed. And so I think that all of it. And then when you look at this whole event happening right now in Israel, the people are coming together. They're dropping their theologies. Their theologies within Judaism and all the other stuff. And they're coming together as a people.
Starting point is 01:38:49 And I don't think we've really seen much of that happen here in modern day history, if you will, as we read about it during like the children of Israel leaving of Pharaoh and coming out of, you know, going into the promised land after. Joshua and all the different events that have happened through biblical history. Or biblical history is man's history, actually. We just try to separate it and keep people thinking that in some comic book fiction and stuff. But it is man's history. And Rashid, I got to say something real quick because, you know, well, we introduced you as like, hey, you work for the government. And, you know what I think you actually work for is God. I'm sitting here crying right now.
Starting point is 01:39:35 Yeah, she is. I'm in tears. Yeah. But Rashi, to the point of why she's emotional, it's because she has had a battle between, you know, growing up Jew and also kind of also being around. But I get what he says. Like, and, you know, people probably might have missed it.
Starting point is 01:39:52 I don't know. Well, being around Christian and saying you either believe in Jesus or you're going to hell and blah, blah. I mean, you know, it's the whole thing, right? And then Jews, there's a lot of Jews, don't believe in Jesus. And so the whole deal. But I think the way you just explained,
Starting point is 01:40:06 all of that made sense, regardless of what side you're on or whatever case is. And it's like a happy crime. And yeah. And there's going to be a lot of people that that don't agree with that. But, um, right. And the thing about it is, this is my job as a Gentile is to help is the help my brother, my Jewish brothers and sisters coming to the knowledge of the Messiah. And the thing about it is, even the scripture says whether they believe it or not, God still is going to favor them. and bring them in. But if we think that we're so much better than they are, we can still be taken out of the promise that God has given.
Starting point is 01:40:43 It's right here in the text. And I would admonish everybody to read Romans chapter 11, 12, and 13 to understand what Paul was actually saying as an apostle to the Gentiles. We were a tool to help the promise people come into the knowledge of the Michiath. And you know what? I get it. I have a really good friend of mine. I was saying, I was telling you before he's a psychiatrist.
Starting point is 01:41:06 and we have some of the greatest conversation. I love my man. His name is Will. And we have some of the best conversations and we talk about these things and, you know, he's not offended by me what I'm saying. I don't try to offend him by
Starting point is 01:41:21 using the word by because guess what? This word as people hear it. What it does is hopefully over time, it'll change people's mind. This is why Paul Eiff said, be not conform to the world, but be he transformed by the renewing of your mind.
Starting point is 01:41:40 And it also says in Philippians, Paul even said, let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus. And what he's saying is that as we change our mind, our hearts will change. That's what I was talking about today using the beatitudes and the beatitudes when Jesus was talking on a mountain. He said, blessed are the pure at heart, for they shall see God. And the thing about it is, the being a pure at heart, a person that's pure. at heart. The heart is actually the seat of man.
Starting point is 01:42:11 But three types of hearts. There's the physical heart. There's the psychological heart. And then there's what we call the spiritual heart. The spiritual heart is the place in man that communes with God. Everybody's always trying to answer that question. Why am I here? You know, we're trying to figure out our purpose in life. And so I think that even when we talk about this subject, all of them are trying to find out their purpose. But some of those people are tools to get us to our purpose. And it could be the Hamas.
Starting point is 01:42:43 It could be the war. It could be all the calamity. Because a truth be told, some parts of the critical theory is right. You need chaos to cause change. So sometimes in our life, most of us change in our life when we meet chaos, something that we are up against. and we realize that we're just human beings and we need something greater than who we are and we need to change.
Starting point is 01:43:08 I'm going to change today because I just walked away from this car accident and I should not have and there has to be a God out there. I may not know that person's name or his name or whatever it is, but I will save from this accident. And so therefore I'm changing my life today. I'm not doing that thing I did before, you know, prior to getting there. And it's a weird, Rashi, because you're saying this,
Starting point is 01:43:30 and it's like, we're thinking all the time nowadays, it's like, you know, oh my God, how bad is it? How bad can this world get? But like, but also at the same time, also at the same time, how many messages can God send the world? Right. As many. You want to know what Jesus said? He will, he will forgive and give us 70 times seven. So God is always forgiving. The one, the word blessed, the word blessed in the scriptures is comes from the Greek word macarios, which means that you're giving God's divine grace. So guess what? Grace is not something that we work for.
Starting point is 01:44:09 Grace is something that we don't deserve that God gives anyway, whether we think we deserve it or not. And so guess what? God will continue because the scripture says that he wished that all men be saved. And God did everything. If you go back to John 316, the same scripture everybody beats everybody over the head, but they forget to read the rest. He need to read the rest of the trip, for God so loved the world. He didn't say he loved the earth.
Starting point is 01:44:34 He loved the world. There's a difference. The word earth is terra. The word world, the word world is cosmos, which means the atmosphere we lived in. God loved the place that he put us in, which was Eden, supposed to be Eden, what they call the Edenic mandate from Genesis. God, he loved the world that he gave his only son. God made the ultimate sacrifice to give his son.
Starting point is 01:44:57 We saw that with April. when he was going to son. That's why we're going back to Isaac and Abraham. Isaac and Ishmael. This is what this all is. It's all of this stuff is a, whatever we see in the natural, there's something happening in the cosmic realm,
Starting point is 01:45:13 the spiritual realm. And anybody, because people say, oh, that's just spooky stuff. No, we believe in Halloween. Halloween come from all, Hallows night, which from Sam Hain, when you go into Scotland, they, they are sitting over,
Starting point is 01:45:28 over there at the stonehenge and they're worshipping a cosmic god and they're allowing spirits to come into the earth. That's why we wear Halloween costumes so they don't see us. You know, that's the history behind. I did this thing about the truth about Halloween and the kind of show people where the history came from. But people believe in all these other things. They crosses and they have dream catchers and everything. So everybody believes in a cosmic being. Let me ask you something, Rashid. I got to ask. you this. I've been thinking about this. I know that we're getting way up, well, not really way off topic. What do you believe in UFOs? Do you, what, what are these UFOs? And by the way, I'm asking you from a federal government employee and, uh, and someone that has been around the world eight billion times. What are these UFOs? Well, say again, you there? Are you there? Oh, you hear me? Yeah, I can hear you now. Go ahead.
Starting point is 01:46:30 Well, before you go on to that, wait, wait, wait, wait, Rashid, I'm sorry, before you go on to that subject, I have to say you really, you, God and both really just touched me like really big time. By the way, you did, like I have tears
Starting point is 01:46:46 rolling down my eyes and I'm like, I feel like God put you here for a reason and, you know, tonight, whatever. So I'm just, you know, thankful that you are here. And probably there's a lot of people are going to feel the same way. And there's going to be some people we're like, screw Rashid.
Starting point is 01:47:02 But anyways, that's okay. The Word of God is offensive to those who don't believe, and that's okay. Yeah. But what are UFOs, Rashid? What are UFOs? The UFOs. So from a governmental standpoint, I put it like this. I have to think of it in the sense of that I think it's very arrogant to think that
Starting point is 01:47:27 as God created all of what he created, the universe, And I don't know if anybody actually saw the Milky Way galaxy and where we live. Right. We're like a pendid in this massive universe. I do believe my opinion that there are, there's other life that's out there somewhere. I've never seen them. I can't claim to see them. And I don't think that these things that we see are, that people have claimed they have seen that we haven't really been able to, uh, verify for our own self is absolutely wrong or absolutely out of this world because even the scriptures it describes alien type like figures case and point Ezekiel. Ezekiel saw the wheel and he
Starting point is 01:48:19 describes the wheel and all these different things and it appears to be like alien type you know meetings or or interventions that that he experienced. As for us today, I believe that there has to be something that's there, only because if you go to the book of Enoch, there were some of the angels that taught the Anglos that taught certain things to the human beings to do.
Starting point is 01:48:48 And there's a lot of stuff that's out there. I really can't say for sure. Our technology that we actually have and all the things that we do, yeah, it's well beyond. And even down to the point, I think even Elon Musk even try to make a joke that he's an alien. And I think he might be. I don't know. I think he has some kind of, he's got some kind of link in his brain.
Starting point is 01:49:15 We're talking about that. I don't know. He's definitely got something. But I do think that God has given man, man himself. The scripture says that he's given us the ability to generate wealth and also that he gives us the intellect to be able to do with the inventions as well. So I don't know. I mean, Dr. Michael Heiser actually, believe it or not, he was a very, I would, if you want to
Starting point is 01:49:40 get into that more, the UFO kind of area, he has a huge aspect of that. And he explored that particular area. Yep. I would, I would refer you to him. But I do believe that there has to be some other entities that may have visited the earth. I don't know what they look like, where they come. from or anything in that nature. But I don't think that's it, I don't think that it's impossible.
Starting point is 01:50:06 Like fallen angels and stuff. Well, do you believe in that stuff? Well, we didn't even talk about that. Absolutely. Fallen, yeah. Well, then not. So you got to look at this. The scriptures, they always say that there was one third of the angels that fell.
Starting point is 01:50:17 It wasn't one third that the scripture doesn't even say that. It says one third of the stars. Stars are, are the Angelico. So in Psalm chapter 82 is God has what he calls the divine count. And he actually says it in the scriptures. And there were actually cosmic beings that God actually had before he made earthly beings. And then this is why later in the Psalms he talks about he made it just a little bit lower than the angels. But then we also have the responsibility as the as the as the as the human element that God had created that we would judge the angels.
Starting point is 01:50:55 But those angels actually had a political event that tried to have a coup dutatat. in heaven and they were cast out. And the scripture says one third of the stars, not one third of the angels. It's one third of the stars were cast out. And so Book of Enoch actually describes that because Enoch even described, we always talk about the heavens. And we always talk about heaven, but Enoch actually describes like ten heavens. Right.
Starting point is 01:51:22 You know, so. And God said, I created the heavens and the earth. And then it also says in the Bible, I created. or you go to heaven, right? Heaven and the heavens. It's two different places. Yeah. Paul was caught up to the third heaven.
Starting point is 01:51:38 So that even tells you there's more than one. Wow. You know, but if you go to the book of Enid, it talks about more than one heaven. There's like 10 heavens in there. And the one that's the highest heaven. And check this out. Angels don't even have wings.
Starting point is 01:51:54 I'm going to blow your mind on that one. Angels don't have wings. There's only two beings that have angels. You have the seraphim. Well, there's actually three. There's a seraphim, the cherubim, and the teraphim. They're actually only three beings that have wings. Were they giants?
Starting point is 01:52:09 Are they giants? Well, I don't know. Yeah, they're definitely big according to scripture. And some of them, they look very different from us. We're having many eyes and wings. You have those that have two wings that cover their face, two wings, a cover their body, two wings that cover their feet. You know, those are the cherubim. They cry, holy, holy, holy,
Starting point is 01:52:32 is the Lord. And that's their job, day and night. You know, and so, but we've created these stories around these angels and we've made these stories and we've changed some things where our understanding of the angelic is a lot different. How do we know that angels don't operate or don't look like that? One, God actually came in the form of the flesh, with, he came with Moses, no, Abram, excuse me, he came with Abram before he destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah. And he came with two angels and God sat with Abram and Abram was talking with him. He's like, hey, if I can find 50 people, can, will you spare the city? Two angels went into the city.
Starting point is 01:53:21 There were men. They were in the form of men. That's what the scripture says. So angels don't, they don't have the wind, like people think, but they can, do supernatural things and they're very powerful. And so I'm pretty sure. And then you got the Nephilim. We can go into all that.
Starting point is 01:53:35 But that's a whole other thing. Well, Rashid, what I ran? Are you worried? Are you, last question. Are you, are you worried? Okay, Joe Rogan recently, along with us, by the way. We've said this recently as well. But Joe Rogan mentioned on this podcast as well recently that, you know, at night,
Starting point is 01:53:52 he sits up a night thinking about this Israel, Middle Eastern conflict. and he worries about the future of our world. Like this is going to be the next World War III, nuclear war, whatever. Is this a realistic worry for people? Absolutely. It's going to happen. It's going to happen. It's not a matter of if it's just when.
Starting point is 01:54:15 I can't say it's going to happen now, but it's going to. But you can say you feel like there's more signs than ever is now. like everyone sees that everyone sees the signs no matter not everyone but not no matter if you what religion you believe in or if you're religious or not people see the signs that are happening right now if you don't see the signs your head is in the sand yeah yeah it's going to happen um i i don't i don't know exactly like when but this is this is the foreshadowing of of of in our time of the world of another world war i really believe even so let's get back to the natural standpoint i think it's going to be pretty bad um only because
Starting point is 01:55:06 so here you have all these liberals and you saw what they did to our military with um how they how many of our um very patriotic and very nationalistic uh um service men and women have exited the military Now the military right now is under mission by like over 500,000 soldiers. We are under strength as a military. Wait, we're under 500,000 is that we said? Yes, they look up the army right now. I can find you some articles as well. We are under strength by on.
Starting point is 01:55:41 So we're under 500. Yeah. And so they're trying to recruit. The thing, how most of the army. most of the Army or the military gets their people is by the act of duty going into the reserves and we have enough people. We don't have enough people that we've recruited.
Starting point is 01:56:04 We've decimated our ranks with the COVID vaccine mainly, and we've alienated so many people, even to the point where I even heard that, like, one of our special forces, I believe it was the Navy Seals, and I believe they won their case. But all those Navy SEALs, we spent millions of millions of dollars to train these men to be the battle-hardt warriors that they are.
Starting point is 01:56:27 And they were like, we're not taking this. We've been, we don't need this experimental drug. And many of them, they got kicked out of the military to, if I'm not mistaken, it was almost a battalion size of special forces, folks. I want to say it was like 600, I could be off with the numbers. Somebody could fact check me. I don't know. But it was a lot of them. That's crazy.
Starting point is 01:56:48 And even if it was 15 or 20 of them, that's millions of dollars that we spent on these guys that we've, they exit the military. We don't have a lot of that. That's institutional knowledge. That's years of training that we can't get immediately if we go to have a skirmish or belligerence with another country right now, especially like what could possibly happen with Taiwan, which I think is the threat we really should be focused on rather than the Ukraine. I think we're so under strength that the military, they are, they're sweating it. Cotton, Congressman Cotton or Senator Cotton, he's been fighting that battle too and trying to get things done. Here's, here's a July 22 says recruiting alarm sounded, U.S. Army under strength by 28,000
Starting point is 01:57:41 in the next year. But actually, they underestimated those numbers. It's way more. Yeah, I'm sure. I mean, because, I mean, look, look, if you look at this administration, what's what I'm going to talk about the administration? But everyone around the world knows this administration is weak. Who, like, who wants to go fight, right? I mean, right now.
Starting point is 01:58:00 I mean, it's, it's the most unpatriotic time in America because they're trying to make it. Didn't you hear that there was an upcoming maybe draft or something? Well, there's been, there's been speculation on the event. No, they've been talking about it. It's not speculation. Yeah. The Congress has had secret meetings about doing the draft. I actually told a buddy of mine about that last year because when everybody, when they really, when the real numbers or the real how they were calculating the numbers and talking about the strength was coming out, they got worried.
Starting point is 01:58:38 And immediately Congress was like, hey, we're going to have to start talking about this draft. Now, this is what the poetic justice is going to be. All of them liberals that sat up there and wanted to defund the police and disbanded the military and all this other stuff, they're going to be the ones that's going to have to go fight. Yeah, because it's all the young ones. They're going to have to be the ones that's going to have to fight. You sat up there and you did all this and you got, you had people like myself who wanted to leave. I made Sergeant Major.
Starting point is 01:59:08 I was willing to stay and I knew a lot of other people that wanted to say, I couldn't do it anymore. and so now they're going to have to be the ones that's going to have to fight this war. Yeah, which is not good, by the way. Wait, I said it's not good. I got to put my lipstick on before I. Well, that's another thing, too, all of that woke ideology they've had in there. And you even saw, even when that was happening with all that craziness, with the pronouns and all the different things they were doing, the Russian military was putting out these real hardcore type, you know, recruiting videos, and so was China.
Starting point is 01:59:46 And so they were making us look bad. And it was all intentional. It was all purposeful on it. And I think that, you know, we are, we are headed for war. I'm not, I'm praying that this is not it. But eventually it will come. Because it's going to have to come. another person I think that Josh was listening to or watch or read his name is Martin Armstrong he has what they call Armstrong economics he's a he's a guy he has a a great story but he has a computer called Socrates that he created that the government tried to take very much like Tesla heard that when they took his technology his name is Martin Armstrong and he has a I found him like five years ago seven years ago actually um and I'm I'm met his sister-in-law, I met somebody that she was married. Somehow, it was a family. She was a person that sold us our house.
Starting point is 02:00:44 And she told me, she said, you're going to like, you're going to like my brother-in-law, Martin, and he lives in New Jersey and all this other kind of stuff, whatever. But now he lives in Florida. And I've been reading his stuff and his computer, the government tried to take it. That was the reason why he was the only person that was under contempt of for five years in jail without a trial,
Starting point is 02:01:10 and they had to let him go. And he has a really good documentary that was made about him called The Forecaster. Put it like this. They are so afraid of this guy. He's actually, he's been before Congress. He's spoken to pretty much every president, including Trump, because they wanted to know,
Starting point is 02:01:31 because his economic mind is out there. and he also went to Princeton. And he never even finishes his degree because the man was so smart. He's kind of like Elon Musk. And he created this computer system called Socrates. And it does, it forecasts.
Starting point is 02:01:47 It doesn't predict. It forecasts. And his computer was so on point. I told people I was following him at the time. And I was kind of like, you know, kind of getting into information. And I was really there. And his computer predicted the Trump was going to win.
Starting point is 02:02:04 And matter of fact, They went back. In his computer system, his computer predicted the past five presidents prior to Trump that they were going to be in office. And what his computer system, it takes from the AI that he's created, it takes all the social information, economic information. Any kind of, it reads all the library books. It does everything. It takes in so much information. And that's what other forecasting computer systems.
Starting point is 02:02:34 done. Did it forecast that Biden was supposed to win or did it forecast something else? The one thing he did say, and it was real interesting what he said, he says, yes, my computer can forecast, but he said people, he says when people get involved, it can change the algorithm, which is true. And he did. And so his computer predicted Trump was supposed to win, but when all those other things happen with Dominion and. And all the meals, all the meals and all that stuff. Yeah. Those were anomalies that even though as powerful as the computer is and is technologically advanced that it is,
Starting point is 02:03:17 little bits of information can skew some of the data here or there. But I'm going to tell you, his stuff is fairly accurate. And he puts out some really good information because he's in the know of a lot of things. And even right now, he advises some of the top, top, top, top economic. economic organizations. They pay him boo-coo dollars. But he vowed, the only reason why he gives this information, he vowed that when he got out of jail and what happened to him through judicial supremacy
Starting point is 02:03:48 and they kept him in jail, he vowed that he would educate as many people as he could with what he knew and with what he has as best as he can. Because he didn't want that to happen to anybody else. Yeah, I wanted to. Yeah, I want to know this guy. Yeah, Armstrong economics is we could just look them up and just read some of his blogs. He has some really good stuff and all the, he even puts out documents like the, and just the one thing he did. His whole algorithm is based off of pie, believe it or not.
Starting point is 02:04:21 And even with that, what he found, what he found even through science and even through physics and all the numbers and stuff, what he found was that everything happens in cycles. So you see cycles of war. cycles in politics, cycles and economics. And one of the things he brought out was, if you look at all the world dynasties, all of them only lasted about 300 years. No, no dynasty lasted more than 300 years. None. And I guess China, China, right now.
Starting point is 02:04:55 Well, China is probably the longest dynasty, right? Well, Russia might be up there as well. Who's the longest dynasty in the world? I want to say it was China if I'm not mistaken. That's what I'm saying China. Yeah. And Russia's going to be up there too.
Starting point is 02:05:13 I believe it was the well we can. No, I think it's China for sure. But yeah, it's so weird because all things are. And by the way, I want to point out something because, you know, we we are critical of the government often on this podcast where we
Starting point is 02:05:28 you know, we I mean, guys, we're at what, 300 and I think 14 episodes. now over five years and we appreciate every single person and every single person that listens this podcast they're always desperate to try to find the answers of everything and just like we are
Starting point is 02:05:47 I mean and so we've had some big guest on and we've had some you know and then most of it has been us right just us talking to people but I think Rashid I don't know I don't know how this happened No, Rashid has put me in the point.
Starting point is 02:06:06 No. He has, like, put me into another place I'm not been in before. But here's my point. You know, Rashid is a federal government employee. And I want to make a point to this, too, is like, we've been very critical of federal government. And listen, for rightful reasons. I mean, we're talking about federal law enforcement where they have high up positions and in power. But what I will say is that there are plenty of good people in government.
Starting point is 02:06:32 there are. And I think Rashid's one of those examples. Yes. And I think we needed to talk to one because sometimes we are so like skeptical. Well, everybody is skeptical. Yeah. I'm skeptical too. I mean, it's a
Starting point is 02:06:48 interesting dynamic. And I love I just love serving. I love what I do. I love why I did what I did. I had a really good job before I moved into federal service. And I really enjoyed it.
Starting point is 02:07:05 I was doing well, but this was just a greater opportunity to serve on another level, and I did that. But I am kind of disappointed only because, in my opinion, in my view, we're better than this as in America. This is not who we are. This is not what we're supposed to turn out to be. This is not what's supposed to do. And even in the hard moments, including when you talk about slavery, and they do, they dealt with the issues and they tried, they solved it as best as they can. I don't blame anybody for a slave. I wasn't a slave. I'm sorry. I know my family, I have, I have my great grandmother
Starting point is 02:07:44 came off a plantation and I heard some of the stories, but I wasn't a slave and I have had more people, Jewish people, white people of other ethnicities helping me to get to where I'm at today because they believed in me. And my whole thing is it goes back to what Dr. Kim. said, he says you judge a person based on the content of their character rather than the color or the content of their or the color of their skin. Absolutely. And I've had so many people help me to get to where I'm at. They've corrected me.
Starting point is 02:08:15 They've directed me. They opened doors for me, you know? And me too. Yeah, we've, honestly. Yeah, well, Sherry's not black, though. I know. I'm not black. I'm white, but I've had opportunities presented to me through black people.
Starting point is 02:08:30 Rashid. So, I mean, it's the same thing. Where did you get your white privilege, by the way, Russia? I'm just curious. I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. I don't know. I just try to be me.
Starting point is 02:08:40 I'm very outspoken. It doesn't. The only problem is for me that is I really, I am at the end of my career where I'm at. I do want to serve at another capacity. I just can't sit still. So I'm not the one person. I just got to retire. I'm just going to sit home and go fishing and sit on.
Starting point is 02:08:57 No. You're going to be preaching. You've got to change lives. You got to change lives. You've got to change the lives. I'm telling you. I'm telling you right now. Because you just changed my life tonight.
Starting point is 02:09:06 Like even talking to you tonight, you really, you changed my life, I think. Well, yeah, it's funny because on this podcast for five years, I grew up Christian. We've talked, you know, even with the UFO episodes and stuff, there's so many people. It's like, why do you incorporate religion? And there's people like, oh, thank you for incorporating religion. And people know, I have had outside thought processes on religion many times. I have, you know, it's not even religion. And sometimes I roll my eyes when he brings religion up.
Starting point is 02:09:35 No, but I have to. I'm like, don't bring religion into it. No, but you have to. I have to because I always do this because it's a battle within myself. And I feel like, and I feel like when you're on this podcast, if you're going to be the most true and real version of yourself, I'm always going to be real to the people we talk to. And I think that's why we are here five years later. People trust us. They trust like we're at least going to give them the best thing that we possibly think we know.
Starting point is 02:10:05 Whether or not that's 100% accurate at the time, we are doing our absolute best to bring them the absolute truth. We're not trying to construe it in any way. But we also, too, we struggle with the same things people struggle with every day. Absolutely. And I think that's what brings people to the table. And I think the spiritual aspect of it, I think there's so many things going wrong in the world today. I think people look at this world and they're like, how could God be real if all of this craziness is happening? But I, but I am thankful, Rashid, for what you said tonight because I am too.
Starting point is 02:10:41 Because I think that at the very end, regardless of whether people believe it or not, it did something to me because I felt like you explained it in a great way. I felt like I was talking to God tonight. Well, it wasn't, you weren't talking to God. You were just. Drew Rashid. Yeah. I feel like, I feel like Rashid had a great message. And I don't even know that he, and by the way, Rashid did,
Starting point is 02:11:02 Rashid did not plan anything tonight. He was a deliverer. No, he was. God was the person giving the thing. Yeah, he was very last minute. I reached out to him and said, hey, dude. Is there any way he can come on like in an hour? And he's like, yeah, sure.
Starting point is 02:11:18 And he did. And, and Rashid, I'm so grateful for that. And I think that although. I don't know. I do think we kind of did point out a lot of the things we were going to talk about. I mean, are we on the brink of World War III?
Starting point is 02:11:35 In my opinion, like Rashid says, I got to go back to him. Hopefully not, right? But very possibly. And it's inevitable. I'll be honest, it's inevitable. Just like we mentioned to you early about string theory.
Starting point is 02:11:52 All these things touch upon the string. at some point which causes something else to shift and to happen. The thing about it is this is why I thought that, you know, I know people are tired of hearing about Trump, but reason why like him and not just him, but every other very controversial figure through our history, even with Christ,
Starting point is 02:12:17 one thing that Trump did was it bought America a little more time. Because if Hillary Clinton got in, there's no telling where we would be right now. I'm just saying. And so the mere fact that he got in is not Trump. It was a simple fact that he, my opinion, he delayed whatever what was inevitable to come so that we could have conversations like this. Right. And because I asked you earlier, too, when we're talking about like, we feel like the whole goal is, or who's in charge of all this is China pretty much.
Starting point is 02:12:53 And I asked you, I said. Yeah, as far as world politics, for sure. Yeah. And I asked you, I said, well, did you feel like Trump had China in Checkpoint or whatever? Well, he did. But it was a hundred year thing or whatever you're saying. Yeah, the hundred year plan. It was their plan.
Starting point is 02:13:14 And I thought it out there again, I think I mentioned this to you. Another resource, go to the Epic Times TV and look at their, look at their documentary called the final. war. It is phenomenal. It's about almost a three-hour documentary, but I'm going to tell you, it is worth your time to look at it. It's called the final war. And it talks about the China history behind it leading up to where we are right now. There are a lot of questions that everybody has and asked how this could possibly turn out. But if America doesn't shift what it does and from a spiritual
Starting point is 02:13:54 and a natural aspect, I think we're going to find ourselves depending on the time frame, the timing of it, in a war very, very soon, which, you know, at one point in my life,
Starting point is 02:14:06 I was like, hey, let's go to war. But I'm like right now, I just, I'm not even recommending anybody go to the military. I'm not,
Starting point is 02:14:14 I mean, as much as I want, I mean, but, you know, by the way, you've been in that since you're, what, 18?
Starting point is 02:14:19 the military? No, actually I went in late. I went in the military at 24 years old. Okay, 24. It was the time of my life where I needed something and the United States Marine Corps actually literally changed my life.
Starting point is 02:14:31 And you're how, well, you can either say how old or how many years you served? How many years you served? I served 28, 28 years altogether. Okay. So I got a chance to see a few things. You know, I'm not, I'm not,
Starting point is 02:14:42 I'm not, was no high level, no special operations, you know, Jason Bourne kind of guy. But I think, you're doing now, I think you're making a huge difference than protecting Americans. And we're not going to say what you do, but I'm saying, I think your job is to protect Americans.
Starting point is 02:14:57 And, um... Well, and I think he has two jobs. He protects Americans and he also preaches God's word. Which is really important. Yeah. Which is also frowned upon the government in some ways nowadays. So, kind of weird.
Starting point is 02:15:11 A whole lot. Rashid, man. Listen, and by the way... I'm going to say this last thing because everybody says I'm going to say this. And I'm, I'm going to say this and I'm going to be quiet, but the falsehood is that church is supposed to be separated from the state. That is absolutely false. Church is put like this, the church is the state. I'll tell you that.
Starting point is 02:15:35 If you look throughout biblical history, even if you look out just through medieval history or whatever, every king had a bishop or a priest with them. Every, even in the Old Testament, every king had a prophet. that was with them. The reason why was that that person was supposed to be the balance to help the king make the decisions and they were always supposed to be connected at the hip. Before the king even did anything, he was supposed to go to the prophet. As a matter of fact, if you look in the book of kings, the king was required to read the text. It was part of his lineage to read the scriptures. So that way he could verify what he thought God was telling him by what, through the prophet or the bishop, as to what God was actually saying. Now what about the
Starting point is 02:16:26 now what about these kings that were ruthless and murdered and beheaded people? That happened to. There was a lot of, there was a lot of that happened because the kings went their own way. There were some good kings in history and there was some bad kings in history. And like even King Saul, King Saul in Kings, he, he didn't listen to, uh, Samuel. He did the sacrifice without Samuel, and it cost him his whole kingship. But guess what? It was a timing thing with everything. He had to learn. And then then he made what we call an ungodly oath. And that oath was going to cost his own son, his own life. But he didn't care. It was it was for him. But the, but the, but the, but the, but the, but the, but the, but the, but the, but the, but the, but the, but the, but the, but the, but the,
Starting point is 02:17:12 Samuel, you chose, you don't, he told Samuel, don't be upset. They didn't, they didn't reject you. They rejected me. And because of that, I'm going to give them the king that they want. And if you go through that text and he says, and he will take, he will take, and he will take. He will say, he will take your sons and send them the battle. He will take your daughters. He would do this.
Starting point is 02:17:38 He will take all of your money and he would do this. It's right there in the scripture. It sounds familiar today. And so the thing about it is, yes, they were good and bad kings. And guess what? From a spiritual, I know maybe a lot of people may not believe this, but the scripture says that God sets up kings and he takes them down. So everybody that gets into position is thereby to put permission of Yahweh himself, period.
Starting point is 02:18:03 They cannot, there's no surprise to God, the creator of the heavens and earth. And I don't know, maybe a lot of people may not believe. that that's how I look at things when I do my job in the in the natural realm even it's a even in the government even when I was in the military I will always try to see okay you know and I'm not going to say I had it all and I'm like some super spiritual deep prophet walking around in the sackcloth and you know got the scriptures and the staff and I'm you know splitting seas and everything I'm not saying that all I'm saying is that I was looking for God I was looking even for myself my purpose who I was and I learned to
Starting point is 02:18:42 little bit about the text and it meant something to me and I really feel I really believe these words the scripture says it these words are life yeah and there are a lot of instructions in these books that's why they call the Bible basic instructions before leaving her is what they say you know and that's our instruction manual yeah and when you're saying that you remind me and I have to bring her name up a she'll kill me Brie I mean she's been talking to me about this for a long time Yeah. And right now she's probably like, oh my God. God is here. God is in the house. She's loving it right now. So Bree, you're hearing this. But listen, you know, and we've had so many good compliments on Bree when she's come on when she talked about the Bible and biblical things, just like we're she. But we've also had, we've had people like, you know, I hate what she says and anything she says. I mean, and there are people always like that. And I want to make something very clear.
Starting point is 02:19:41 right now because the reality of this podcast is that we brought Rashid on and this podcast probably would get over a million downloads in a week, right, around the world. And there's going to be people that see this topic completely differently. There's probably going to be people in Palestine that are listening. I mean, even though I don't know how many necessarily in Palestine, but regardless, it doesn't matter. There's going to be people that are not religious, not spiritual, not God. We know they're listening or any because we've already got messages from the last podcast. Yeah, absolutely. But, but, and I think, and I think the thing that people need to take from this,
Starting point is 02:20:18 and we've got more messages about this and anything is like there's something that we've got over the course of five years, but especially two years, the past two years. Well, I just feel like God loves you, so no matter who you are. But listen, the messages we've got the past two years is like you guys have brought up the Bible or God or whatever. And I have had a lot of questions, right? I mean, I have. And I'm just a person. I'm a person that is, I think, an average person that a lot of people that listen to this podcast probably have the same questions.
Starting point is 02:20:49 I think there are some people that believe that, you know what, I have all the answers opposite of God, right? And I believe that there are people that listen to us that believe I have all the answers that are on the side of God. And then I believe there are people that are somewhere in between. And I think that, and by the way, I'm not trying to play a role in. anyway, ever. Cherry's been very vocal about her struggle between Jew and Christian. I've been very realistic in my struggle just between me growing up Christian. Then there was a phase where I was
Starting point is 02:21:24 like, I don't know what to believe anymore. And then the podcast kind of brought me back to just the way the prophecies and the revelations. And by the way, I know the Bible very well. It's just knowing the Bible, just knowing that I was brought up in that. household and then also then doing the podcast where we talked about where we talked about conspiracies we talked about the new world stuff we talked about all that shit um or stuff sorry um we talked about all that and i was like okay now i'm starting to place things right that i've always heard or read in the bible and then by the way personally i'm not saying that everything in the bible is 100% accurate or true um but all i'm saying is that i believe that rossi
Starting point is 02:22:10 Rashid's message tonight I believe I believe is strong and I believe is valid And I and I And I Yeah regardless of what it is There's going to be people out there
Starting point is 02:22:20 There's going to be you people out there That disagree with what he says 100% And listen That's okay But I feel like God Put him on the podcast for a reason Yeah I mean
Starting point is 02:22:31 And and I think so My mom it was weird She texted me she said And never ever before She texted me I said I'm praying for your podcast tonight.
Starting point is 02:22:41 I mean, I swear to like I don't want to say I swear to God because I might go to hell or I don't know what the religious like rules are or not but anyways, Rashi might be able to tell me but mom texting me
Starting point is 02:22:52 saying I'm praying for your podcast tonight and then and by the way, Rashid, like I said, I know you're not God and you're not Jesus. He moved me and I think Rashi moved me through God.
Starting point is 02:23:04 I mean, God was through Rashid, I guess. I don't know. Yeah. And listen, I, hope and I pray that there are more people like you in government and in positions of power or positions of whatever. Unfortunately, like you said, I mean, I think that, and I've said
Starting point is 02:23:21 this on the podcast, and I don't ever want to be depressing. And if I, and if I always put the spiritual aspect in our podcast more so, I could be depressing and not depressing at the same time, kind of like you were sort of. But for me, it's like, I'm just, I'm just, we're just trying to present what's happening in the world. and then, you know, and there it is, right? And I think something that Rashid brought tonight is, is, by the way, that I believe. It's the salvation of God, I guess. Yeah, but I believe, too, is like, this is going to happen, which Bree has also said.
Starting point is 02:24:00 Like, it is already written, right? And Bree is really excited about it. She wants, she almost wants it to happen. Well, it's just for Christians and people that believe. believe they know what's going to happen, right? And she's looking forward to it. She wants that to happen. To me, I told her, I was like, I love my life on earth. I love my dogs. I love my husband. Oh, I shouldn't put that in that order, though. I love my husband. And then I love my dogs. And I love my family. I love my kids. Hold up. I'm wrong with it. Yeah, exactly. But, but, but reality is,
Starting point is 02:24:36 is like, you know, I mean, if you believe, it's already written. And the one thing I have, I believe, that has made me more believe over anything. Like the reality of a God is the UFO phenomenon. And not just that, like the CERN large Hadron Collider, which is the particle collider in China, to where they're starting to show a God particle. The God particle, but the 12th dimension. and like what that 12th dimension could actually mean and how much power could be in that 12th dimension? Well, you're basically proven in science that a God and a heaven and a spiritual being could exist.
Starting point is 02:25:19 And now you're meeting science with God. So, I don't know. Science God. The word science comes from the Latin word skill, which means to know. And so science actually, so there's a guy named Robert Masters. He talks about proving God through physics. And he has some podcasts. He's an older gentleman.
Starting point is 02:25:40 I'm not really sure if he's still living right now. But I listen to all his podcasts. You should hear him, Robert Masters. He's phenomenal. And he talks about all of these things because he was an atheist guy who actually threw his physics. And he wasn't even a physicist who became a physicist through his search. And through that he found God.
Starting point is 02:26:02 And he realized that the science proved God. Yeah. Science proves God. Absolutely. The wind proves God. All the things around, it proves God. The oxygen and gravity, it proves God. You know, and so I heard just the other night, we were listening to something.
Starting point is 02:26:21 And the main thing, you know, the theological thoughts of whether it started with a bang or did it start through creation? And the biggest thing that I would ask somebody, the question should come up is why. that that's the apologetic for that is why so so what you so when you when you when somebody says I believe in the big bang theory or have I believed in creation what they both are actually saying that they believe in a creator at the end of the day so it's either a thing or it's a person but the thing is why so why the big bang why so that thing has to tell you why but things can't tell you why but a person can't So that would that right there actually proves that there is what they call the intelligent design by a creator God.
Starting point is 02:27:12 Just as if a car is made in made through a conveyor belt that that the, or a painting has to have a painter. You know, a car created a car has to have a creator. An architect, an architecture has to have an architect. Who is that? And the question would be why, but you can't ask a thing why. You have to ask a person why. Because then you'll get your explanation. That's true.
Starting point is 02:27:47 And so these are the things that we could, you know, ponder to be able to prove God through the things that we do. And I don't disagree with you from the UFO part. I think that that all does play because, you know, we can talk about, excuse my computer. You know, there's some things that bring question that has us to ask questions. First James chapter 5, it tells us, if a man lacks wisdom, let him ask of God. I said that earlier. Let him ask God. And he'll explain it to you.
Starting point is 02:28:22 And so. And I think God is. I think God is explaining a lot of things right now that people are just not listening to. And that is, so there's, there's reasons for. that and I'm not going to belabor that part. But guess what? It's all a journey for everybody. And the thing about it is, is that we're all learning, we're all growing. But we have to, and I think that if you make an effort to go beyond your prejudices, your biases in life, and, you know, even the most challenging thoughts you have to disbelieve and you just go and seek it out,
Starting point is 02:29:02 you might really find an answer. And that takes a person that's willing. And what that really means is that you humbling yourself to the point to where you say, okay, I understand this mean, I don't believe this right now, but I explore it. But then in the exploration, you might find the answer. And that's what I preached today a message I've been teaching on the beatitudes. Blessed on, I said this earlier, blessed of a pure at heart, but they shall see God. and the part of that purity is what it means is there's a blockage from the mind that goes to the heart.
Starting point is 02:29:36 And when you clean out the mind and you, you have you say, my mind is clouded, I can't think. When you start to remove all the things, the barriers, the barricades that block thought or godly thoughts or good thoughts or just the information that would help you to come up with logical conclusions on certain things, it's going to change how you think. is going to change how you feel in your heart. And what that does is, and the reason why we struggle in our heart, what we call the spiritual battle or the spiritual warfare, is because there's something in our heart, because the heart is the place where we actually commune with our creator God. That's why we feel certain.
Starting point is 02:30:22 We lost you. I can't hear you. Go ahead. It battles with our mind and our body and we're struggling for the truth. But when we can remove the impurity out of our heart through discovery, through research, through asking questions, through whatever it is. And the thing is the worst case scenario is through tragedy or whatever. It's just an event that just causes it to be ripped out. Then you'll begin to see some things clearly.
Starting point is 02:30:55 That's why now you can see God, that you can see the answer. You can see truth. And I think that we're all looking for truth. But even going back to the text, Jesus said, I am the way, the truth and the life. No man can come to the father but by me. So we're always, we're looking for somebody to validate us. And we normally get that validation through our family, through our community, through what we do, you know, through what we learn. But for some reason, those things aren't enough for us.
Starting point is 02:31:30 So we're also looking for something more in life. And I actually applaud both of you for at least exploring these different avenues to come to a conclusion in your life. To come to a logical conclusion after to what it is. You may not reach it now. You may still have some questions. That's okay. But if you continue to try, if you continue to just keep chipping away at it, I promise you. I promise you that you will come to an answer.
Starting point is 02:32:03 And that final answer is just like what the scripture says. You'll be like, I didn't realize what I was missing. And guess what? It's okay. Because God can redeem the time in your life and he can bring, everything that you thought that you lost, he'll bring back to you just like Joe, he'll bring you double. He'll give you double for your trouble.
Starting point is 02:32:24 And once you come on the other side of it, and you find the answers in life, you'll know why. And that's the thing, that's an intimate thing between you and your creator, God, Yawait. Yeah. And by the way, I do think a lot of things going on right now. And I've thought about this too is like this whole interdimensionality of people trying to like a lot of people are getting on board. Hey, look at this interdimensional world that we're starting to potentially understand or see.
Starting point is 02:32:56 Government's coming out, UFOs, all this stuff. And it's probably always been there. Yeah, it has. But we've not been able to see it because of our minds. Well, I think it's the God realm, though. I think it's what God and that whole thing has always been. Basically what Rashid is saying. But Rashid, let me ask some.
Starting point is 02:33:16 Last question. Very last question. No problem. Very last question. For the people that are going out there and going to dig houses underground to protect themselves from nuclear war. Are they wasting their time? Or do you believe that God just is going to survive and support you no matter what? Or if you die, you just go to heaven. That's fine.
Starting point is 02:33:39 You should not fight on earth. What would you say to people that are actively trying their best to protect themselves either against the government or the world wars that potentially are coming up versus God? I have no issue with anybody preparing. I'm a prepper myself and you should always be ready you know, she'd always be ready to respond to
Starting point is 02:34:05 whatever it is, whatever it may be. But at the end of the day, you still have to realize that you're human. I wouldn't, and don't go beyond your means because that can actually hurt you in your, in your preparation stage.
Starting point is 02:34:21 I don't have a problem with anybody building the bunker that they have every right to do that. there were, you know, ways even, you know, the middle, we do it all the time. Everybody's always in, and we should be in a mode of always preparing for the worst that's possible going. I'm even thinking about buying some gas masks, even for me and my family, with my girls, you know. At the end of the day, I put it in God's hands as to what happens, whether or not that's
Starting point is 02:34:50 going to work or not. That's just me. That's what I do for me, my family, how I think. but I'm going to prepare. I always say you have to give God something to work with. So the scripture says faith without works is dead. So I do believe that you still have to do some things in order to better protect yourself. So if you have to have the firearms as a defensive weapon to be able to protect you, your family,
Starting point is 02:35:14 or use it to be able to gain food. Hey, do what you got to do. Always prepare, constantly train, constantly read, keep your mind sharp. build, get sleeping bags and tents, do whatever you have to do. Because my wife, even she's very prophetic in what she does. And the vision is that we're going to be in such an economic downturn that we're going to have to have store up. How do we know that? Look at what happened in the Old Testament with Joseph.
Starting point is 02:35:51 Joseph. Joseph helped the land of Israel, well, the land of Egypt to store up for seven years because it was going to be seven years of famine. And so even in scripture, there was a preparation phase for the people to save the people. And when they realized that it was a godly thought, there were some things that happened for Joseph that brought him to even be the second in charge, the viceroy, of Egypt itself. So, you know, there's nothing wrong with preparations. You're always prepare to do stuff. It is wise to prepare. Absolutely. Wow.
Starting point is 02:36:28 Rashid. Oh, my God. There's so much. And by the way, everyone, because I know everyone's going to love this except for maybe atheists. Atheists are going to hate this. Sorry. Well, maybe not. He might bring a whole lot of faith to believe there's no God.
Starting point is 02:36:45 That's right. You are so right. It takes a whole lot of faith. not to believe in God. Yeah, that's true. But listen, even if you're atheist, we love you. And even if you're Palestinian or Israeli or wherever you're at, dude, like as long as you're good people, right, we love you. I mean, and even if you're evil, we're still going to try to love you and try to make you different or try to make you better. I don't know. I mean, I think that's the way of God if you believe in God. And if you don't, if you believe in alien God or some, you know, which by the way, which by the way, I do think. God is an alien. I mean, technically. I don't think God's an alien.
Starting point is 02:37:22 I mean, but he is a technically extraterrestrial. I mean, he's not. He is definitely not from this earth. Yeah, so, so. I know what he's trying to say. He's not from this earth. That's what I'm saying. I know what you're trying to say. I know you're not, I know, I know what you're trying to say. God is not from this earth. God is like the creator of this universe. Yeah. Absolutely. He's Elohim. And there's no Elohim like him. Rashid, there's so much, listen, you, you have been, you have been around the world. And yeah, I think that I feel better, too.
Starting point is 02:37:58 Yeah. Just even talking to you. And I think that you've been around the world eight million times. I think that you've experienced a lot of things. And I want to bring you back on the podcast soon because we got so much to talk about. Hopefully you'll, you'll be willing to come back on. And, and I've already, by the way, guys, out there listening, I've already told Rashid, he should have his own podcast. and if he decides to do that in the future,
Starting point is 02:38:21 then you guys will be the first to know because I know that there's going to be a ton of people out there that want to hear more of what Rashid has to say and I do as well, which is why I want to bring you back on for future episodes. Rashid, is there anything, is there any last words you want to say to the world? I'll just say thank you.
Starting point is 02:38:42 This is a great opportunity for me. You know, I'm grateful. I know we have in physical. physically met. My brother called me and he told me about it and he was just excited. I really didn't know what to think or what they expect or anything. I don't know. I have a lot of thoughts. And this actually helps me too because I absorb so much information all the time, but there's very few outlets that I actually pursue. I did think about doing a podcast. I've just actually have been so busy. I was trying to go to law school. I was trying to practice.
Starting point is 02:39:18 for the LSATs. There's so many things I was just trying to do. But this is just a great opportunity. I do thank you both for extending the opportunity and at least trusting me because I don't know if you probably get some crazy folks on here or whatever. I hope you don't think I'm crazy. No, that's why I talked to you first. I hope that I don't, I didn't want to misrepresent my service either in the military or in the government as if I'm some super spook or whatever.
Starting point is 02:39:46 It's just these are just my thoughts, observations through my experience. over the years. And, you know, and I thank you both, and I commend you both. And I'm actually touched by the simple fact that you even said. And I actually needed to hear that because sometimes even in ministry, we don't really get a whole lot of feedback as to what we teach or what we say actually helps people. We're a small ministry. And I'm trying to develop that. It's really hard up where we are to do ministry. And it's just good to hear that at least something that I said, it just brought a thought to potentially
Starting point is 02:40:22 change your heart, your mind, to think a different way or to do anything. I think you're called to this, by the way. Oh, yeah, I think that's definitely your calling. Because when I've never been brought to tears on a podcast before. She did. Wow. She did cry.
Starting point is 02:40:40 And I think that's some of her struggles, but I think you explained it the best way that she's ever. It's almost like you knew exactly what to say to me. It was just amazing. But I think it was God speaking through you. I don't know. Yeah. And by the way, you know, and when you talk about God in any circumstance, that's not always
Starting point is 02:41:00 going to be a case for everybody, right? And it might be one. It might be five. It might be 10. But, you know, that's their own journey. That's your journey. That's what you believe. That's what I believe.
Starting point is 02:41:12 And I think in the end of the day, here's my stance on this. And I'm going to make this very clear before we end this podcast. because we're seeing so much and so many people have reached out. There's pro Hamas, literally. We've had pro-Hamas people that have sent us messages. We've had pro-Palestinians
Starting point is 02:41:33 that are not necessarily with the mosque, and we've obviously had a ton of pro-Israel. But I believe, based on everything I've always believed, and based on God, you have to protect Israel. I believe that, I believe that I don't know all the politics in Israel. I don't believe I can tell you without a doubt that every single Israeli is perfect because they're not, because God has said in all aspects, there's no human being
Starting point is 02:42:00 that's ever perfect. But what I can say is that, you know, there's something to be said about Israel. And although all Palestinians are not terrorist, there is certainly a cultural and religious movement and even going back to DeSantis where he says we cannot admit a hundred thousand or a million Palestinian refugees. We just can't do it. And the reason for that is because they hate Jews. Right. Like most people hate it goes back to indoctrination.
Starting point is 02:42:40 Yes. Yeah. And they're indoctrinated by Hamas, which is a terrorist organization, which is a huge part of the government in Gaza, right? And I'm not saying that they're bad people. They're indoctrinated. Whatever you want to see about certain things. And we talked about that in
Starting point is 02:42:56 our culture, like with our colleges, in our schools. Our schools are being indoctoring. Yeah. And we're seeing it. And we're seeing it. Yeah. And that's what we want to change as, you know, people that believe in God, no matter what religion you're in, you know, we're all
Starting point is 02:43:12 seeing it. And I don't think most people like what we're seeing. And the problem is, and here's the weird thing about this whole conversation. I know we're at two hours and 36 minutes, which is the long as podcast we've done in a while. But to end this, like, everyone says, well, we can't let us be a religious war. I mean, oh, my God, are you going to say a religious war? But really, everything is a cultural or religious war. Or political, political, something. Yeah, political or religious. They want to try to get religious out. But religious is the most rooted,
Starting point is 02:43:46 values in society of anything, right? And so, like, what is the right answer? And I think Rashid brings a lot of that, especially just for Israel's sake, right? And what we need to think about Israel and the historical context. And by the way,
Starting point is 02:44:02 Rashid has not listened to Bobby's episode with the historical context. And once he does, and I wanted to get some more things Rashid about the history, especially as far as some some aspects you mentioned earlier, but trust me, I think we're going to be talking about Israel
Starting point is 02:44:21 that situation probably for a while, because I think this is just the beginning. So we'll definitely bring you back on. But in my stance, we get a stand with Israel. These people that came in Israel are terrorists, and we have to kill them. We have to destroy them. And I believe, and so many people are like, oh, you're Christians, but yet you're saying that you know, well, if you look back in the Bible, they're a very, I mean, the Bible is not a fairy tale. It's not a nice place to be. It's not necessarily, but, and I'm not saying that is the way you need to do everything, but like how else do you do it? Israel has been trying their best to get every civilian out of Gaza. Hamas is not letting them. Hamas did not let Israel even have that chance. No, absolutely not. They came in and they raped women. They killed children by beheading them. They cut babies out of people's bellies. They cut pregnant women and then
Starting point is 02:45:19 decapitated their unborn babies. Well, and not only that, I mean, they... I don't think Israel's doing that to Hamas. I think Hamas is trying to give... I mean, Israel's trying to give Hamas warning. Like, you need to get out, you need to go north or...
Starting point is 02:45:34 Palestinians, yeah, you got to go north, you got to go south, you got to go here, because we're planning to do this. They're trying to give an advance notice, but the problem is, is these rebels that are Hamas rebels are keeping, yeah, they're keeping these people hostage. Yeah, they are. And they are. And, you know, they wanted to blame Israel for this. You know, they said it's an open-air prison, right? But the reality of it is, is that it's actually an open-air prison for Hamas.
Starting point is 02:46:05 Yeah, they won't even let their residents leave. Yeah. So they talk about that, but you want to know, one of the largest refugee camps are? You know where is that? You know where is that? Where? It's in Syria. It's called Al-H-H-O-L. Look it up. They have over 60,000 plus refugees that live there from around the world. So they talk about that. They want to talk about all this stuff about the Gaza. But you have Al-H-H-H-L-O-L-L. And all these countries, including the countries in U.S. and everybody else, they still have not solved it. They have not solved that problem in our whole. Look about hold. I actually worked on that
Starting point is 02:46:54 project, a part of that project when I was at Central Command when I was assigned there for a year. And it is heartbreaking to see what happens there. Now, where are those people come from? All the states. Syria is the main one. You have a lot of Syrians and. You have a lot of the old ISIS folks. They went there. But Al Hull, it started out with about 10,000 people some years back. And it grew to over 60,000 people.
Starting point is 02:47:29 But they want to talk about Palestine. But they need to be talking. If you want to get on your moral high horse, look at Al Hull. Our whole is the largest, if you want to call open-air prison, then people can't leave in the world. look it up. And look at the history behind out hole. And a lot of terrorism come, a lot of terrorists have come out of there where they were,
Starting point is 02:47:54 where they were enacting Sharia law in these. It is just look at the, you can go on YouTube, put an out hole, look at the history behind out hole, and you'll see what I'm talking about. But they want to talk about Palestine. I get it. I get what they're saying there. But at the end of the day, that's Israel's land, period. That's the text.
Starting point is 02:48:13 And that land belongs to Israel. Israel's kind of disobeyed God because they're supposed to get everybody out of their land because that's the land that God had given them, which is their canon or Canaan land, and they're supposed to live there. But listen, but to your point there, though, to your exact point here, this goes back to religion. It goes back to beliefs. And if someone wants to say that God never gave you that land, then they didn't. And all of a sudden, we're going to say that, well, God didn't give you that land. And it's actually our land. So this is a new narrative, right? I mean, that's kind of essentially what it is. That goes back to the reason why that actually goes back to what I said, Ishmael and Isaac, and the moral of the story basically is under the traditions, especially ancient, near Eastern or Semitic traditions,
Starting point is 02:49:04 is that the first son would get the inheritance. Well, Ishmael was born by Hagar and to Abram, because his wife, Sarah, I said, hey, because I can't have a baby, you have a baby with with Hagar. And so he had one, but that's not who God had told Abram to have relations with because he was supposed to be with his wife. So he broke some covenants even there. And then therefore, then the promised son, which came when Sarah was 80 years old, she had a baby.
Starting point is 02:49:34 And that baby was named Isaac, which was the promise of God. And he received the inheritance. There was a reversal in the, in the, in the, inheritance given to the son. And Hagar and Ishmael went back to their lane. It was upset. And Genesis, in the book of Genesis, it basically declared the lineage of Ishmael. It says specifically, he will be a wild man or a wild donkey or wild ass, as it says in the
Starting point is 02:50:02 scriptures. And he will be a wild man in his hand will be against every man. And he will live amongst his brothers. That's in the word. And so you're seeing the, so this is why you see the Arabi, the Arab world is so wealthy because they still fall under the promise of God because God promised Abram that all of, he would be a father of many nations and they would be wealthy. But they weren't supposed to receive the inheritance because that's not who God told them to be or told him to have the son with,
Starting point is 02:50:30 the first son. It was supposed to be Isaac. That's why Isaac was the promised son. We can even go down and have that same type story goes throughout history with Joseph all the way down to Jesus. Yes, you are. So, so this is a common, so this is what I would say. We've been here before. We just haven't seen it because we live in modern times. Yeah. The world has been through this. These cultures have been through this. We've been through this many, many, many, many, many times throughout history. We're just living it in 2023, seeing it for ourselves. Right. And you've always been in the book, the text. And we just don't believe. And we're seeing it in real life. We're seeing it. Right. And that's why to some people, the word of God, they're like, well, they were talking about that in the Bible before. Somebody heard that somewhere, you know, and it's all there. And so, um, so my point is basically they can say what they want to say about Palestine. It's this, all this terrible, whatever. But look up our whole. I promise you. That's the worst, uh, part if you want, if you want to look at it.
Starting point is 02:51:42 our whole. The largest refugee camp in the world is in Syria. It's in their back. Absolutely. And they haven't done a thing to fix it. No, because they don't care. Fix Israel, but you can't fix your own backyard. No. Sorry.
Starting point is 02:51:58 No. It just reminds me a lot of the same consensus that we have had over the past four, five, six years in the United States. I mean, it's always a narrative. It's always something they want to get behind. They want you to get behind, but you know, they, they want to do their own thing.
Starting point is 02:52:14 But let's get you behind this narrative. But me as a child of God, I want to fix everyone. Like, knowing about these things that are happening and no one's doing. It's kind of like that sound of freedom movie. Oh, God. We just watched that. Oh, God. Have you seen that?
Starting point is 02:52:30 It's so sad. I ordered it. I haven't received it yet on, on iTunes or Apple TV. Yeah. But it's basically about, you know, six trafficking. They came to have kids or whatever. But it goes in what we're talking about right now, you know, in every circumstance. Yeah, every culture.
Starting point is 02:52:50 There's just so much craziness out there. But Rashid, listen, thank you so much for coming on. This has been two hours and 45 minutes, which is one of our longest podcast. And I think everyone is going to appreciate this episode. Not everyone, but I think a lot of people will. And we're going to obviously stay on course with the Israel and Palestine conflict. there is so much going on right now it is changing every single minute
Starting point is 02:53:15 you know is this going to be the new world war is it going to be World War 3 are we going to see this thing escalate should you prepare yeah but even further I think the
Starting point is 02:53:28 I think the bigger thing is at least for me or for many people is like what is your moral conscious and what do you need to believe and fight for because there's so much there's so much information out there right now. I mean, especially with Russia, Ukraine, because in my opinion, that is an entirely different circumstance than Israel and Hamas or Palestine.
Starting point is 02:53:53 But if you think about it, it's the full circle. It is. It goes back to one thing. It is, but I do think it's completely different in some ways as well. But, but Rashid, thank you so much for coming on. And by the way, thank you so much for your service. You have dedicated. much of your life to this country and we only hope and pray that there's going to be more people, hopefully that step up in positions of power like you are,
Starting point is 02:54:21 but, you know, that's the scary part is like there's not a lot of people that are real, genuine, loyal people to the Constitution in America that are like you that want to join this government or this, whatever you want to call this, right? Because it's not really like a strong government
Starting point is 02:54:39 right now. That's the scary part. But we do appreciate your service. And Rashid, we're 100% going to bring you back on, hopefully, if you would like to come back on. And we wish you to absolutely very best. And we totally enjoyed you. And, you know, you really made a difference in a lot of people's lives tonight. I think so.
Starting point is 02:54:58 Yeah. I do. Thank you. Well, I appreciate y'all. Thank you again. I'm very humbled. And I'm, I, if you ever want me to come back, just give me a shout. Oh, we will. We will for sure, Rashid.
Starting point is 02:55:11 Well, Rashid, the very best to you and your wife. And we will talk to you very, very, very soon. All right. Take care. All right. See you guys. All right, guys. That was Rashid, man.
Starting point is 02:55:22 Oh, my God. What a great episode. I know that was two hours and 48 minutes, but I learned a lot. I have goosebumps. I have goosebumps. Yeah, absolutely. But everybody, thank you for listening to this episode of Investig Air podcast. By the way, I want to say something, the very last part of this.
