Dana Lashes of Sir Truth podcast. Like sands through the hourglass, so are the days of the United States. All the celebrations across, not just Iran, but also the United States, Iranian Americans, Persians, who are very adamant. A lot of people that are talking about this issue, especially some of the thought influencers online, they don't understand the difference between Persian and Arab. and it's kind of embarrassing. Some of the, a lot of, actually not some, a lot of the woke Reich does not understand the difference.

They think, oh, there's just all the thing. No, they're literally two very distinct, incredibly different cultures, incredibly different religions. Who boy, but they're celebrating, celebrating. And it is, it's, I mean, wild to see. Now, a lot of people are going to be watching, you know, well, what does this mean?

How long is this engagement going to be? And we're going to break down here coming up the authorized use of military force because back in 2001, you know, as I said, that we, and this was post-9-11, there was the authorized use of military force that was passed. And it included entities that gave aid or haven to those who were involved in the planning and implementing or carrying out of 9-11. And a lot of people say, well, it doesn't include Iran specifically or explicitly by name. But then there's also people who say, well, yes, actually doesn't have to explicitly say them by name because they gave haven. And this is well known to al-Qaeda fall in transit after 9-11.

After they had hundreds of al-Qaeda fighters, hundreds of al-Qaeda senior leaders, hundreds of al-Qaeda supporters that went through Iran. Not only did they give them safe transit, but for a lot of the leaders, they gave them a safe haven following 9-11. So you could argue that the 2001 authorized use of military force is applicable here and that they are included underneath it. In fact, it's one of the things that the Trump administration is kind of leaning on. But here's the bigger question. For all of the lawmakers that are pretending to be a libertarian on this issue and that are posing on this issue, why didn't they get off their fat asses and do anything about it? Because it's been an effect since 2001. And look, I like Thomas Massey, but I really don't want to hear Thomas Massey talk about it if he's not going to explain why he hasn't done anything or proposed anything to change it.

And, you know, I mean, I like Senator Rand Paul a lot. Love Senator Rand Paul as a lawmaker. But why didn't you change it? I mean, I got this question, and I'm not trying to be mean. I mean this with all, you know, goodwill. Why didn't you alter it? Or why didn't you demand, like, the extreme level of specificity that you want? because I would think to say that anybody who gave aid or safe transit or any kind of assistance to those

who planned or carried out 9-11 and you have an entity that's giving safe transit and well-known safe haven to major Al-Qaeda leaders, that sounds like that falls under that classification to me. So the issue isn't the interpretation. The issue is the lawmakers that never changed it that want to complain about it now. And the commentators who didn't even know with the 2001 use of authorized use, and military force included until they started Googling it yesterday. So where were all those people like months ago, years ago, when Congress could have changed it, when Republicans ran House and Senate, when we had a very brief near supermajority ahead of a

special election tenure, where were they at? Major question. So we're going to dive into that coming up. And the lone wolves and the sleeper cells. Are there Iranian sleeper cells here in the United States? and if there are, how excited are some of us to think that we might actually be able to use some of the toys that we have? I'm just saying, we got a lot to pick apart here coming up. Stick with us. As we move, the folks who make the program possible, it's our friends over at Superbeats.

If you want an increase in energy and stamina, you know, I love those Superbeats heart shoes. I've been telling everybody about those four ever and ever. But here's the thing. They, not only do they have the Superbeats, heart shoes, they have the turmeric chews. they make a number of different products to deal with different issues that you might need remedied. So, for instance, the turmeric chews. It's about supporting a healthy inflammatory response with a clinically studied turmeric curcumin complex. Now, turmeric, everybody knows it antioxidant properties, but a lot of forms are really difficult for the body to utilize effectively.

It's just hard to absorb. Human has a clinically studied complex that helps solve this issue, creating a highly absorbable form. Clinically studied, it tastes amazing. I can pop these things like candy. I actually have to be kind of careful because I was eating one bag over the weekend and I realized they had two left. And I was just because the bag stays, it's structured. The bag stays like it looks full. So I'm just saying.

Anyway, you can, they're amazing. They taste like a little light citrus, orange flavor. And it actually helps me because I deal with inflammation. So it helps me with my body's inflammation to have a more healthy response to it. Great tasting. Easy to take. No, no added sugar. No added anything.

So you're getting like a pure sample here, a pure portion. And it's a perfect time of trying to try them. You can get them at Sam's Club right now. Clinically studied high absorption formula, the turmeric chews. Head to Sam's Club today and grab your bag, bags, plural. Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash with you, bottom of the second hour. And one of the things that we've been talking about getting all into everything with Iran is, you know, the 01 authorized use of military force.

And also, most importantly, the history. the history of all of this because, you know, no matter what somebody's opinion is of POTUS, it seems like this reaction that we've been seen, this has been my entire life that we've had this situation with Iran. I mean, in fact, since before I was born, we've had this problem with Iran. We all grew up, like part of the Gen X demographic grew up with Iran as the big terrorist regime, and we know nothing different. One of the first things I remember, and this was in 80s. I was like, I was really young, but I remember we had family in the military and everybody was talking about the 1983 bombing in Beirut of the Marine Barracks. And that, I mean, those

images were everywhere. You couldn't get away from it. And that is like how a lot of us really remember how Iran started. We had no knowledge of Iran before Carter, no knowledge of Iran before this. And as you remember, that was a suicide truck bombing, 241 America. our service members were murdered by this regime. We also, we have other embassy bombings, but this was the, this was the one that kicked started it. And this is also the topic of a one of the books that my friend, who is an absolute factory, Jack Carr, you are all very familiar with Jack Har, targeted Beirut.

I mean, oh my gosh, this just came out last October. and it gets into the bombing of the barracks there in Beirut. It gets into all of this. He worked with a historian James Scott on this book. And as you know, our good friend Jack, he has a retired Navy SEAL. He has a very illustrious career. He has an impeccable grasp of American history and really foreign policy. And he just brings a very unique perspective, practical, historical, all of the, everything's touched.

But this book, and you know him, Terminalist. his re-series. He joins us now via video. I mean, first off, Jack, it's so good to see you, but oh my gosh, I mean, to understand this, and I think you said something like this on social media, to really grasp everything with Iran, you've got to start back then, back in the 80s, back when all of this stuff began, and, you know, really the 83 bombing of the barracks, and you dive into that with your book. And talk to us a little bit about this, because you understand the historical significance and also how it led to where we are at today. There's a whole host of reasons that I would like to go back to the 80s, notwithstanding,

but what's the is if we could change a response to Beirut, 1983. And it starts in April with the embassy bombing, and that it kills 63 people, 17 Americans. Then we go through a very bloody summer and get to October, 1983, with the bombing of the Marine headquarters and barracks building. And as you said, that killed 241 service members. There was a lot of tough talk out of the administration at the time, and then we slowly leave very quietly in early 1984. So what this did was teach our enemy a lesson, specifically Iran. And in the case of Iran, it taught them that, yes, terrorism works, but more specifically that terrorism through proxies works.

So we taught them that lesson, and there's a direct line from Beirut, 1983, to September. 11th, 2001. So if I could go back and change that response, I think that really does change everything going forward when it comes to that lesson the enemy learned and all the terrorist attacks that came after. It's what really, you know, growing up and watching all of this, and even with Iran Contra and everything else, it seemed like there was more rage against Western nations trying to stop the regime from killing people than there was rage at the regime for killing innocent people to begin with. I mean, we could see that bias play out on the world stage, even all the way back then.

Well, it's interesting when you talk about, let's say, mass protests. And we look at, let's say, the 50s, 60s, 70s in the former Soviet bloc countries. And it was only after there was new leadership in the Kremlin that didn't support mowing down protesters with machine guns, that those protests were able to make a change. And we've seen since 1979, very, very important. times throughout the history of Iran where protests rise up, protesters rise up, and they're mowed down with machine guns. We saw the same thing in China multiple times. For our generation, we remember Chenaman Square. And it's very interesting, this Iranian and Chinese nexus where there's a 400 billion

pledge from China to Iran. And part of that is a technological surveillance apparatus. So the same type of technologies that China uses within their own country to maintain that authoritarian rule, they are in turn selling that to Iran to allow them to use those same technologies to control the populace. So we also have to remember that regimes, specifically authoritarian regimes, are very durable. And we haven't seen something like this before. We're all very in tune with Iraq and Afghanistan 20 years in Afghanistan, all those years in Iraq, all of that nation building, putting boots on the ground, which essentially made us targets in a propaganda war that the enemy was able to exploit and we were not.

Jihadis from all over the world could come there to fight the infidel. And my hope, and of course hope is never a very good strategy or course of action, is that those in the administration, our senior level military leaders now, have learned from the events of Iraq and Afghanistan over those 20 years and are applying them to this current problem set as wisdom. And we will see if that plays out over the next weeks, months, and years, specifically if we had somebody in mind or if the Israelis had connections with somebody in the military, in the intelligence apparatus, who had the support of the intelligence apparatus

and the military who can step up into this power vacuum, or if we're just hoping for the best. And that's the part that I'm very curious about that we'll find out in the weeks and months. It's interesting. You mentioned the intelligence because I saw an interview with Machmaud Ahmadinejad, and he was saying that at one point they had an entity that they created within their government and within their guard to go after Mossad agents. And they found out that the guy leading it was a Mossad agent. And I was shocked that he actually admitted it on camera, but that was, that was pretty impressive that they didn't even know that the guy that they picked elite it was the guy that they were actually hunting for. I saw that. And there's also technologies

available today that we didn't have back in 2001, 2003 type timeframe. So we can exploit those as well. And then of course, the Israelis on the ground have that, that human intelligence that we probably don't have just because of their proximity and their ability to infiltrate the regime. They've proven time and time again with that example that you just gave right there where they're able to go in and really deter or degrade the Iranian regime from either further developing their ballistic missile program or their WMD program or whatever it may be. But in the long term, it appears that we got to a point where we couldn't just rely on those pinpoint strikes that really kept that acceptable level of violence, that status quo, we'd move beyond that.

And I really wasn't surprised when I woke up on Saturday morning to have my phone blowing up with text messages. I knew exactly what they were going to say already because that maximum pressure campaign was never going to work because that Iranian regime has kept power because they have this outside enemy and they are not going to acquiesce to any of those three main demands that the Trump administration had because there was no way to save face. It would look like a, it would look like a complete surrender to that populace. And so that was never going to happen. So the next step, unfortunately, was this because it also means diplomacy failed. That made me sad, but didn't surprise me. But also our covert action programs, anything we've had in the works over the past year or in

decades past. And I won't say those failed, but they didn't achieve the outcome that was necessary to avoid war. And now we find ourselves in the current conflict. Yeah, there was no way to go along with this containment policy because it was something that you're just not going to be able to contain. We're talking with our friend Jack Carr behind Terminalist and, of course, his book, which is insane that this just came. I mean, it not just came out, but fall last year, targeted Beirut, which gets into all of this. You know, you mentioned the containment and you also, you know, mentioned the regime and the regimes, you know, it seems like as soon as they get a new leader, there's another strike that takes out that leader. But talk to me about the aspect of the

asymmetric response that the remnants of the regime may still be able to muster. Because, you know, we saw this terrorist attack in Austin, and this guy had an Iranian shrine in his house. You know, he had like the founder of the Iranian regime and then the current, well, the leader that just got taken out and a bunch of other leaders and the flag and all this other stuff. Is that something that is going to be the new reality, in your opinion, for Americans now? Well, it has been for quite some time. have been sporadic attacks over the past 25 plus years. This is just the most recent. And of course, there's something in the news and people can get radicalized, not even specifically targeted to be radicalized, but they can just be radicalized via algorithms that are meant to get you riled up and

keep you scrolling. It doesn't have to be an actual concerted campaign to find somebody and then get into their head and then radicalize them and then send them off on some mission. It can be a lot less institutional than that. And so we have a couple things that can happen here. Terrorist attacks meant to get a political end state, or you can have these different terrorist attacks as revenge. And when we think back to the 80s again, we think to Libya at the time. We think of Qaddafi at the time. We remember the two service members killed in a Berlin nightclub. We interned bomb in 1986, Libya. Two years later, we get Pan Am 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland, and that was a Libyan Intelligence Service that was behind that, killing 270 civilians. So there's this back and forth

revenge, and then there's terrorism to get a political end. And unfortunately, that political end, that's the one that we taught the enemy that terrorism works. So it's not the greatest and what we can all do is just be vigilant. We should be doing that anyway for ourselves and our families, but in the weeks and months ahead, just because of the rhetoric, because of algorithms, because of all these things at play.

Yes, sleeper cells are something that are concerning. And they're targeting military members, too. You saw that alert come out from SEC War where military members are supposed to turn off their location tracking on all of their devices, because apparently that's now being, being, that kind of surprised me coming from, the Secretary of War?

I think we saw that over the last five years at some point. We saw that happen once before. But of course, there are little things that we can do to make ourselves harder targets. But at least we don't have an open border like we did for so long that could be exploited by the enemy. We do have an open society. And those are things that Iran didn't have, that China doesn't have, that Russia doesn't have, that North Korea doesn't have, and that our enemy can exploit.

So those aren't things that we can exploit in those countries. And they can unfortunately exploit here. Fortunately, that's just the byproduct of having a free and open society. But there are things we can do like shutting off our borders and having a better vetting process in place for those who want to come here. Of course, that's one. And then now we have our intelligence apparatus, the FBI in particular working on domestic terrorist threats.

But that's mostly the ones that are the cells that we talked about because they're actively planning. And it's those one-offs, those people that are just crazy, radicalized by the algorithm or whatever it might be to go out and take innocent. lives. Those are the ones, I think, a little harder to target. Last question for you, because you've, and you always weave, you know, throughout, whether it's your terminalist series, the re-series, or obviously with your targeted Beirut as well, you always weave, you know, a lot of really good historical things into your books. And I love the history that you get into

in your social media as well. Knowing the history of the way that the regime has operated and even the lower leadership, the surrogates. How do you anticipate this ending at this point with Iran? I mean, is it going to take continued escalation of force? Do you think that the people are going to be able to do it? I mean, if they've ever been so close, now's the time. Because it seems, it's difficult for us on the outside to ascertain what options they have left, because to us, it seems like everything is destroyed. But, you know, they still have all these proxies, the Houthis, the Hasbalah, Hamas, that they can rely on. What is your take on that?

Yes, the whole tell me how this ends. And Iraq and Afghanistan, it's actually very clear how it was going to end at one point, especially in Afghanistan. They actually had a saying for it. The Americans have all the watches, but we have all the time. And all they had to do was wait. We would eventually leave, which is why the withdrawal in 2021 was so painful to watch because we had 20 years to plan for it.

Now we have new leadership in place. We have new elected representatives in place that are hopefully learning from those events of the past and applying them to the current problem set as wisdom. But it's really to tell me how this end piece, that that's tough to, that that's almost impossible to predict. But what you can predict is that there will be unintended consequences of a regime decapitation. That's a certainty. And now what you have to do is adapt and adapt faster than your enemy, because typically whoever wins on the battlefield is the one adapting faster. We were not very good at that in Iraq and Afghanistan. We were okay at it at the tactical level, not very good at it at the strategic level.

level, obviously. So we're going to have to apply that adaptability to this problem set. And I'll be very curious to find out in the weeks, months, years ahead, if we had somebody in mind that could step into this power vacuum and purge the intelligence services and the military of those loyal to the former regime. And that's something that will be very violent and bloody, but probably necessary. And it's a big job. I know we got a good going, but you also have a new book coming out. I just wanted to touch on it real quick. The fourth option from Jack Carr, is going to be coming out in May. I mean, you're breaking your own rules right now on deadlines from what I understand.

And by even joining us right now, which we're very grateful that you did because you're just like a repository of information on the Iran issue. But the fourth option, I know that you're still doing some edits and you're still finalizing it. It comes out in May. Congratulations. Congratulations on all your success, the Terminalist series. And I can't wait to see this latest book from you. Out May 12th, correct? May 12th.

And hopefully I'll be seen you around that time. Of course. Sounds good. Jack Carr, always a pleasure, my friend. God bless you. Good seeing you. American financing, great entity, great friends of the show. Have you looked, by the way, your credit card statement lately? A lot of people are putting a lot of stuff on credit cards.

So the frozen blueberries that have been distributed in Canada, do we care, it's in Canada. I care about the handful of Canadian conservatives. That's all that is there, I think. God love them. Apparently they have Listeria. So if you're in Canada, check your blueberries. Let's see here. Ew.

New York Hospital delivered its biggest baby on record, not Hunter Biden. Parents say they did not expect a 13-pound baby. A 13 pound noob. I am looking at the size of this baby compared to an average baby. And oh my gosh, guys, his little feet and legs is so fat that you can't even get his little socks on the little feeties. Oh, my goodness. I can't help it. It's just too funny.

Baby boy, Sean Jr. 13 pounds. Largest baby ever born at the hospital. Again, babies, little feats and legs are so fat. you can't even get a little baby socks on him. It is hysteria. He looks like he could eat the baby next to him. There's an average-sized newborn next to him,

and legit looks like he's going to eat that baby is what it looks like. Well, congratulations to the parents. But, man, give that woman some flowers, give her a push present, whatever it is that they do. Oh, my gosh, 13 pounds. Let me go out because we had some other ones from above. This, oh, Rhode Island schools are going to request a reduction of the school year after their historic blizzard.

So they've had so many snow days that they would essentially have to stay in school all the way up until into July, not until, but into July. Because they've had so many snow days. That is wild. I mean, I think I would be okay for remote learning like with a snow day,

but I know the teacher would be at her house or his house too. So, I mean, but I think you could, you know, if you get that much snow regularly every winter, maybe have a plan because ain't no kid going to be one of going. That's when it's, you know, nice up there is in July. That's crazy, though. They would have to go in all the way into July because of that. That's, that's a lot. Also, let's see here. Stolen bike led to the arrest of two felons. There's another FDA recall. Oh, this is Gold Star Distribution. Ew. Dietary supplements.

It's animal and veterinary product type, everything. It's basically medical device, food and beverages, drugs, cosmetics, potential salmonella. So the company name is Gold Star Distribution. All I have is like the readout from the FDA. Oh my gosh, rodent excrement, bird droppings, and areas where medical devices, drugs, human food, pet food, cosmetic products were healthy. Yeah, it's in Minneapolis. Salmonella. So, oh, man.

And some of these, some of these, oh, man, they got. some stuff at a central market. Ooh, they got a lot of halal market stuff. Just saying. So you basically don't buy anything that's made from gold distribution in Minnesota because gross. That's, I don't even know how you could have such standards so low that that's an actual thing.

But what about all the terror cells? You know, we have this mass shooting that took place in Austin, Texas. And the guy is an Islamist. He came over here under Obama Biden. He was wearing a property of Allah, of Allah shirt during the attack. He was a naturalized U.S. citizen for some reason. I think he should be, I think he should have been deported. He was in a gun-free zone.

We're going to have Democrat reaction to that coming up. Wounded 14. He was in a gun-free zone. He kept, had little Iranian shrine. He had Iranian leaders and Iranian flags in his house, all of that. He went to the most populated areas. area in Austin, where he knew nice weather, everybody's going to be outside, and he opened fire. He entered during the Clinton administration, became a citizen under Obama Biden, despite

the fact that he already had a criminal record, which I think he should have immediately been deported. But, you know, Democrats. He had all kinds of arrests, arrest over and over again, I mean, all kinds of criminal behavior. But Democrats allowed him to stay in, and they allowed him to become a naturalized citizen. And so this guy is, he's a terrorist. He, I mean, he had an Iranian shrine in his house. So how many others are there out there? You know, I was kind of joking around because my husband and I, we've done, I mean, we've done a lot of training. And I'm like, now I'm like, maybe we should like run through a couple scenarios again and go, it's usually a place we go, we'll go take classes. And sometimes it's like a weekend, whole weekend or, you know, a day. It depends on what kind of

training you want to do. But I'm thinking, you know, are there? they really that stupid to try something like that? By the way, this is why the Second Amendment is so important. Are they really that stupid to try? Of course they are. Absolutely, they're that stupid. Are they really that stupid to pick a fight with people who want to be left alone? But if you pick a fight with them on their turf, by God, not only they're super excited about engaging you, but they're going to make a mess for the medic and a mystery for the morgue. Just saying, I don't know, I'm just, you hear somebody screaming that and I'm just like, oh, gickety, Glockety Glock a clock.

My word. I mean, you would hope it would never come to that. But I'm not going to shed any tears over popping an Islamist. Not at all. So, I don't know. I think that people do. Now, you know that they have already issued an alert to the military, saying turn off the tracking on your phone.

This was something, I'm going to pull this up. This is something that came out a little earlier. They were saying that American military, particularly, you need to make sure that they are turning off the location, the ability to locate where you are through your phone. It's kind of scary when you think about it. They said active threats against personnel. Apparently it came from the Department of War. Uber, Snapchat, they're all compromised. That's what they were saying.

You know what I was thinking about, too. with all of this, how much in taxes did the United States spend to fund the containment of such a menace that has terrorized us for nearly 50 years? This is the message that Secretary of War sent for military members, active threats against U.S. military personnel in the United States even. Hmm. You know, Iran has struck more Arab nations than Israel ever has too, which is another point that I was thinking of. But this is, I'm telling you, this is very, I just think that you need to just, you know, lovely yellow, cautiously alert. That seems the best way, I think, to describe. You know, just be cautiously alert.

There's no need to be freaked out, but there's just be cautiously alert. But it has already reshaped everything. Think about it. during October 6th, Iran was at its peak power, essentially. Biden, Clinton, even some Republicans, years of them looking the other way. And they really, this is what happens when you believe in your own, when you believe in your hubris. They really did believe that they were untouchable. They helped fund Hamas.

They helped fund this, all of this. Hezbollah, Hamas, Houthis. And October 7th, I think is going to go down as one of the worst strategic errors that Iran has ever made. because they united the world really against them, despite so the efforts of so many here in the United States and elsewhere to try to change the how people feel about Gaza and Israel and Iran, et cetera. The other Arab nation's response has been very interesting as well. It came out over the weekend that the Crown Prince, Muhammad bin Salman, of Saudi Arabia, very publicly was saying, oh, let's, you know, caution, caution. We don't believe, we don't agree with the

strikes, although they condemned Iran for striking Arab nations as well. The only country that didn't actually come out and say anything negative on Iran was Morocco. They were upset with the United States, and that's pretty much it. But the Saudis reportedly, very privately, were telling POTUS, yes, do this, absolutely. And then very publicly, you know, they have to keep, because they would like to be able to control the fanatics that are so far underneath the Islamist regime. They're not for Islamism, which is the political terrorist. Islam. They're not, you know, for it, but interesting. Thanks for tuning in to today's edition of Dana Lash's Absurd Truth Podcast.
