The David Knight Show - Wed Episode #2040: Trump’s Iran Strike Backfires — Nuclear Ambitions Accelerate

Starting point is 00:00:00 Music As the clock strikes 13, it is Wednesday, the 25th of June, year of our Lord 2025. Seems like Trump's devastating strike on Iran might not have been as devastating as he wanted to make out. I mean, a would-be mass shooter foiled at a church. We'll take a look at that and more. Stay with us. The The So Well, good morning folks, as I said. Seems like perhaps Donald Trump's strike on Iran wasn't as important as he made it out to be.

Starting point is 00:02:19 Perhaps it didn't actually accomplish even what little he thought it might. Seems like they may have either moved the uranium or the strike itself was just not nearly as effective as they wanted us to believe. But as I said we're going to start again today with the war in Iran since it is the main topic of conversation. Trump's attack may instead spur Iran to speedrun a nuclear weapon it wasn't building previously. That's right Netanyahu has been lying for 30 years and Donald Trump just agreed with him, sided with him, took his side on this as we always do. Gina Haspel of course lying us into the war in Iraq and Trump made her the CIA

Starting point is 00:03:13 head. Now other countries have seen this. America and Israel are known liars when it comes to things like this. Compliance with our agenda, with what we say is no guarantee of safety, because they'll just make something up, they'll lie. They will come up with something like WMDs or babies in incubators. And so they have no reason to try to treat with us fairly. They have no reason to even come to the table really,

Starting point is 00:03:44 because they know that even if they comply with what we want We can just lie our way into another conflict. We can say we found evidence of weapons of mass destruction and Invade anyway, we've done it before we'll probably do it again Sad to see kawd-68 no nuclear signature at the bomb site, trucks and activity before the bombing. They made a fool of Trump. Well, he does that beautifully and ugly himself. Best ever. Golden fool.

Starting point is 00:04:12 That's right. There was never a better fool than Donald Trump. He truly is. A one of a kind. US officials have trumpeted that the recent strikes obliterated Iran's nuclear enrichment sites but satellite images have cast doubt on that claim. In any case, Trump's bombing campaign will most likely spur the country to abandon the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and kickstart a program to rapidly develop nuclear arms as a deterrent. Deterrence, even if that program wasn't in gear previously,

Starting point is 00:04:38 a grimly ironic outcome of strikes meant to prevent exactly that. The Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty is not able to protect us, Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Arachi said at a Turkey conference in the wake of the strikes. There could even be international ramifications if other countries see what Iran is going through as well and come to believe that a nuclear weapon would safeguard them against outside attempts at regime change. In any case, Iranian officials said they had evacuated the sites Fordow, Esfahan, and Natanz. Air bomb by America pointing to the possibility that parts of the nuclear program have survived

Starting point is 00:05:14 and have been moved to a secret location. The International Atomic Energy Agency, IAEA, a United Nations body, is clamoring for peace, diplomacy, and access to sites in order to assess damages and account for any stockpiles of uranium that could be used for nuclear weapons. But events have rapidly barreled forward so fast that a visit from a bunch of United Nations eggheads seems pretty quaint at the moment. On Monday afternoon, Iran launched missiles at the Al Udeid air base in Qatar, the largest American military base in the Middle East.

Starting point is 00:05:46 Though all the missiles were intercepted, heading off a worse crisis. The bombing salvo comes on the heels of an Israeli attack on an Iranian government prison, among other facilities. I call on all parties to exercise the utmost restraint, de-escalate, return to the negotiating table. French President Emmanuel Macron posted on X. He must have done that between getting slapped around by his wife It's nice to know that she gives him some time so he can tweet his little thoughts the spiral of chaos must end

Starting point is 00:06:14 Yes, well, it's rare for me to agree with Emmanuel Macron on things But he seems to be right on that at least he's calling for peace He seems to be right on that. At least he's calling for peace. It's shocking just how unpopular this is that even people like David Hogg and Emmanuel Macron are saying reasonable things compared to Trump. As I said before, the ultra-rare, never-before-seen, double-sided, holographic David Hogg W Never before seen on this planet Now, of course we had Donald Trump becoming irate over Iran and Israel he Dropped the F bomb. So there's multiple types of bombs being dropped here

Starting point is 00:06:58 He said they don't know what the F they're doing furious Trump slams Israel as fragile ceasefire crumbles He's making, Israel's making him out to be a fool, which I mean as KWD said, he doesn't need any help with that, but he is definitely playing the fool for Israel. They get to do whatever they want and he is left to pick up the pieces. We've got a comment from our dad here says, it's a pageant. That's right. It's a pageant. It's all a pageant. The tail is wagging the dog, folks. We are the dog. Israel is that tail and we are left to wonder how it keeps happening. They don't know what the f they're doing. Furious Trump slams Israel as fragile ceasefire crumbles.

Starting point is 00:07:47 President Donald Trump unleashed a fiery statement to the press just moments before boarding Marine One. Trump declared, we basically have two countries that have been fighting so long and so hard that they don't know what the eff they're doing. You understand that? The president is extremely frustrated and downright angry with Israel.

Starting point is 00:08:04 And Iran, upon news of the ceasefire not holding, he stopped to speak to us just now and said he's not happy with Israel nor Iran. Well, if you'll remember correctly, he was acting like he wasn't very happy with Israel before all this. And then they claimed that it was to help lull Iran into a false sense of security. So, who knows? Maybe that's what they're doing again. Maybe this, as dad said, is all part of the pageant. Maybe he's fine with Israel and he's just waiting for Iran to feel a bit more secure. Oh, maybe Israel doesn't have the undying and unwavering support of the United States. Perhaps they're at odds, which I don't think we are.

Starting point is 00:08:45 Then he told us neither country knows what the F they're doing. The president then swiftly turned and walked toward Marine One. Well, poor Donnie. Left to pick up the pieces. Israel and Iran. Violating the ceasefire. Trump's fiery statement comes just hours after Israel accused Iran of a severe violation of the overnight ceasefire. Israel's military said it intercepted a missile launched by Iran while Tehran denied the fresh attacks. Well, we know Israel lies continually about this sort of thing. I would not be surprised if they did not, if Iran did not violate the ceasefire.

Starting point is 00:09:22 And instead, Israel is just making things up. I mean we saw they're more than willing to assassinate people, murder them, engage in violent vicious sneak attacks. Israel has no qualms about behaving or engaging in war with any sort of integrity. As the US and Qatar brokered ceasefire deadline closed in, Israel and Iran exchanged lethal blows overnight with Israel hitting various targets in Iran, killing nine people in northern Iran and reportedly assassinating yet another nuclear scientist, while Iran

Starting point is 00:09:57 killed at least five Israelis in a devastating hit on an apartment tower. At eight minutes after midnight in Washington, President Trump and his true social account took use of his social account to announce the ceasefire was in effect and to urge continued compliance. Note that no broad peace deal has been made, only a suspension of hostilities that Trump seemingly hopes will prove long lasting. After hours of silence, Israel on Tuesday morning confirmed it was a party to a ceasefire, with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office saying,

Starting point is 00:10:27 Israel has achieved all of the objectives of Operation Rising Lion and much more. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Arachi confirmed Iran has no intention to continue our response to Israel's initiation of war, provided that the Israeli regime stops its legal aggression against the Iranian people. Israel claimed Iran fired missiles after the deadline. An accusation are actually refuted in an ex post. Ex post facto. The military operations of our powerful armed forces to punish Israel for its aggression

Starting point is 00:11:01 continued until the very last minute. 4 a.m. together with all Iranians I thank our brave armed forces who remain ready to defend our dear country until their last drop of blood. Who responded to any attack by the enemy until the very last minute. Well they're admitting that they carried out hostilities right up until the very last minute, the last second possible, but it does seem like Iran wants peace. It seems like they understand that continuing this is a very, very bad move for them, that

Starting point is 00:11:32 it only leads to the complete and utter destruction of their country by Israel and its foreign lapdog, the United States. Iran's last minute act of retaliation, at least five people were killed and 26 injured in an enormous explosion that devastated a seven-story apartment building in the southern Israeli city of Beersheba. Let's be clear, I'm not cheering on Iran. I'm not excited that they're bombing apartment buildings. I don't want to see Israel wiped off the map either.

Starting point is 00:12:00 I would like, again, a two-state solution when it comes to the Middle East. I would like Israel to be able to coexist with the people and countries nearby. I would prefer that, however. I would also prefer that no matter what happens, the United States butts out. That toll may rise as responders continue to sort through rubble and incinerated automobiles. We emphasize again, do not enter the scene, said Israel's fire and rescue authority. The arrival of civilians endangers public safety and makes it difficult for forces to operate." We've got quite a few tweets in this article that seem to provide videos and pictures of the impact and the damage

Starting point is 00:12:47 done by these things. Meanwhile Trump continued a series of manic social media posts about the US attack on Iran's nuclear facilities and the ensuing ceasefire posting in a certain and very ironic way that perfect hit late in the evening brought everyone together and the deal was made. Gristening the war with an aim that depends fully on an enduring ceasefire, Trump earlier declared the conflict should be called the 12 days war. Bold of him to assume. That's like well it won't be any longer than 12. We can call it here folks. Perhaps appropriately that moniker harkens back to 1967's Six Day War which contrary to Zionist mythology

Starting point is 00:13:22 was also initiated by Israel. Six Day War resulted in Israel's seizure of the West Bank, Gaza, Golan Heights, East Jerusalem and the Sinai Peninsula. Israel is routinely the one who initiates violence. And they're very, very good at claiming it was the other guy, at figuring out ways to make themselves look the victim. Infamously, it was also during the Six-Day War that Israel executed an hours-long broad daylight multifaceted attack on the well-marked USS Liberty,

Starting point is 00:13:51 killing 34 American service members and wounding 173. That's right, the USS Liberty is one of the most obvious false flag attempts I have ever seen. A Israeli fighter strafes it over and over when it was obviously marked as an American ship and it was an obvious attempt by them to say, oh look you were attacked by the other side. Despite the fact that many people survived and were able to say

Starting point is 00:14:21 no it was an Israeli fighter jet and as far as I'm aware they've only ever like admitted fault in the sense of oh it was an accident how silly us how could this have happened I suppose we put a blind man up in that fighter jet he couldn't see the giant American flag it just doesn't it wasn't very visible he's already grumbling about the nascent peace among right-wing Israelis in Israel's US-based boosters. While Netanyahu asked his cabinet ministers to refrain from commenting on the ceasefire, hawkish Israel Ben Betenuh, party chairman Avigdor Lieberman decried the absence of an

Starting point is 00:15:01 Iranian unconditional surrender, saying, Already at the beginning of the war, I warned that there is nothing more dangerous than having a wounded lion. Similarly, Dan Elouz of Netanyahu's Likud party asked, has the enemy surrendered? Or is it just a round we won on points? Striking a different tone, opposition leader Yair Lapid said the Netanyahu government should now end its war in Gaza. Saying, it's time to finish there too.

Starting point is 00:15:23 Return the hostages. End the war. Israel needs to start rebuilding." Yes, Israel needs to start by not being a genocidal, terroristic state. That would be a good place to start. It'd be a nice place to start rebuilding. In the United States, Israel allies who thought they finally had their long awaited full fledged American war on Iran are not happy. While they may still achieve their goal of leaving yet another Middle East society in

Starting point is 00:15:51 ruin and despair in pursuit of Israeli regional supremacy, non-interventionists can at least enjoy the neocons heartbreak for as long as it lasts. Mark Levin doesn't want to cease fire and he is saying that leaving the Iranian supreme leader alive instead of killing him is akin to leaving Hitler alive during his rule over Nazi Germany. It's never enough for these people. This is by at Anthony Kabasa on Twitter. Mark Levin is a hateful little warmonger, a despicable worm of a human being, only capable

Starting point is 00:16:19 of arguing to send your sons and daughters to die for Israel. He would never go fight for the country he loved so dearly. He would only send your children to do so. He would pour out America's tax dollars, your money to go and fund war in the Middle East. He wouldn't spend his money. Mark Levin is a warmonger. He simply cares about making sure that Israel

Starting point is 00:16:47 is allowed to do whatever it wants. He is a despicable human being. He is hateful and full of rage. Only one, this is a comment from our dad, only one country has attacked America and we did not attack back and that was Israel and that was with the USS Liberty, that's right. They get to attack us they get to kill so many members

Starting point is 00:17:10 So many sailors on that ship and we do nothing about it We just take it we accept it. I wonder why They get to do whatever they want. We're just left to pick up the pieces Ronnie this is a Quote from Syed Abbas Arachi the Iranian minister He posted this on Twitter as Iran has repeatedly made clear Israel launched war on Iran Not the other way around as of now there is no agreement on any ceasefire or cessation of military operations As of now, there is no agreement on any ceasefire or cessation of military operations.

Starting point is 00:17:49 However, provided that the Israeli regime stops its illegal aggression against the Iranian people, noted later than 4 a.m. Tehran time, we have no intention to continue our response. Afterwards, the final decision on the cessation of our military operations will be made later. We're continually told that Israel is the good guy, that Israel is the only democracy in the Middle East, that they're the only ones that we can deal with and yet they're the ones that are calling for complete and utter destruction, unconditional surrender, you will submit and we get a very stately comment from Sayyad Abbasarachi

Starting point is 00:18:24 the unhinged Iranian. He's the one that we can't trust. He's the one that we have to fear. Not the people that launch sneak attacks, that engage in continual violence and murder of women and children. For all of Iran's bluster and death to America, they have been extremely reasonable, far more so than America or certainly Israel would have been if the roles had been reversed. Yes, if someone had done what Israel did to Iran, to the United States, can you imagine the levels of devastation we would have unleashed upon their country we would have flattened them into the ground we would

Starting point is 00:19:08 have ground them up into powder it would have been unbelievable what we would have done to them well this is very... Iran's missile attack on a US airbase in Qatar was telegraphed well in advance, suggesting Tehran intended a symbolic show of force, offering a way to de-escalate after US airstrikes over the weekend. We need to find a way to de-escalate this, but it does not seem Israel is going to allow that. Israel agrees to ceasefire with Iran after regime change operation fails. Again, I don't believe that they have any interest in an actual ceasefire, but they

Starting point is 00:19:55 do love sneak attacks. They love to agree to these things and pretend that, oh, we'll have some talks, but oh, you violated the ceasefire. We know you did because we have no proof, we're not going to share it with you. But you did it, so that allows us to strike back. Israel agrees to ceasefire with Iran after regime change operation fails. Iran managed to not only survive Israel's decapitation strike, but reconstitute and rain down missiles across the Jewish state. Footage posted to social media shows the moment of the Iranian ballistic missile strike on an apartment building in Beersheba this morning.

Starting point is 00:20:32 On location where the Iranian missile directly struck a seven story building of Ashiba. This article has many pictures. We'll pull that up in a minute. Settlers crying in Beersheba as they film their destroyed home. That said, this purported ceasefire will give Israel time to rearm with the US supplied bombs and interceptors. That's right, we're gonna continue to ship them. Arms and ammunition. Israel agrees to ceasefire with Iran

Starting point is 00:20:56 after regime change operation fails. It's likely just a matter of time before Israel gives it another try. This is from CNN. CNN Iranian state media announces ceasefire deal imposed on the enemy. Iranian state media announced Tuesdays a ceasefire has been imposed on the enemy after the country's military response to US aggression. Hours after Iran's retaliatory attacks against a US base in Qatar, the Sepah Islamic Revolutionary

Starting point is 00:21:21 Guard Corps' successful missile operation in response to U.S. aggression and the exemplary steadfastness and unity of our dear people in defending our land has imposed ceasefire on the enemy, an anchor with state-run Iran national news networks at a live broadcast. The anchor did not give a time for when the ceasefire would take place. U.S. President Donald Trump requested the ceasefire between Iran and Israel in a begging like manner shortly after Iran strikes toward the US Al Oudeid's base in Qatar the anchor said last evening only an hour after the successful missile attack by the Sepah An American's al Oudeid base in Qatar in a begging like manner a virgin Trump requested the initiation of a ceasefire

Starting point is 00:21:59 Imposed in the imposed Zionist enemy war against our country the anchor said a Begging like manner. I Don't seem to have very much respect for our leader. Do they but the question is why would they why would they indeed? We are going to take a quick break. I'm gonna grab a drink real fast. My throat is very dry But before we do got some comments Marky mark and Jay. Thank you very much That is very kind of you. Travis I'm Ask Your Father's Mark Levin impression. He totally nails it. Mark Levin! Very angry! Very angry! KW68, Gaza, starvation continues. He kill us. What's a Gaza? All he knows is Iran is the bad guy now. That's right.

Starting point is 00:22:37 Forget about Gaza. Forget about Palestine. That genocide is already set in stone. It's gonna keep happening. So he might as well move on and think about the new one He kill us the Iron Dome is a fraud and the world's most expensive fireworks show We'll be right back folks stay with us I'm going to be a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a

Starting point is 00:23:12 little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a

Starting point is 00:23:28 little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a

Starting point is 00:23:44 little bit of a little bit of a So So The So The End Defending the American Dream. So So So I'm gonna be a good boy You're listening to the David Knight Show. Welcome back folks. Thank you for still being with us. We're going to continue with our coverage of what's going on in Iran as that is the biggest news That is going on right now. We've got some comments though. Marky mark again. Thank you very much. That is very kind very generous Well, thank you. I very much appreciate the kind words mark that is incredibly kind of you as well He kill us the Iron Dome is a fraud and the world's most expensive Fireworks show we read that trucker Chris responds

Starting point is 00:27:52 Israel doesn't think it's a fraud and they want a piece when they ran out of missiles for it He kill us responds to that They've terrified their people with the Iron Dome for years the Israeli people honestly think that hundreds of missiles are bombarding them on a daily basis and have been for years Israel is not above terrorizing its own people. They'll lie to us, they'll lie to them, they'll lie to anyone and everyone. KWD 68. America gets a golden dome. That's right, we get the golden one. It's big, it's beautiful, it's incredibly expensive and probably useless for the future of warfare. The golden dome, it's just as ineffective as the Iron Dome, but a lot more expensive, as the name would imply.

Starting point is 00:28:29 Isn't that wonderful, folks? Gard Goldsmith, good to see you Gard, I hope you're doing well. I love how the Mark Levin's out there keep claiming that engaging in immoral, unconstitutional regime change promotes the will of the people and democracy. That's right, you're going to get democracy whether you want it or not America is coming. It's got the guns It's got the bombs and it's delivering democracy one bomb one bullet one dead woman or child at a time I suppose Isn't that wonderful as?

Starting point is 00:29:00 I have continually stated even if a country wants democracy, even if they want freedom, it's not on America's job list to go and provide it for them. We have no expectation of sending our people to die so that a different country can experience freedom. If they want freedom, they need to take it for themselves. You cannot give someone freedom. They have to want it. If they do not want it, they will simply revert back to whatever system of government that most closely aligns with what they want It's one of those just

Starting point is 00:29:47 Do I think China would benefit from a more open and honest and fair system? Yes But if the Chinese people don't really want it if they don't really care for it We have no business and going over there and imposing it upon them the Chinese people deserve whatever system that they want. Whatever they see fit to tolerate. Whatever works best for them. Experts gauge success of bunker buster bombs dropped by U.S. on Iran nuclear sites. Experts note that even if some materials were moved before attack, Iran's ability to sprint to a bomb has been significantly impaired. Experts, who are these experts? Where can we find them? Where are they getting their information?

Starting point is 00:30:32 Are these the same type of experts that we trotted out during COVID-19 to say, oh, we need to lock down the country? You gotta wear a mask. After first they said, masks are useless useless don't wear a mask Are these the type of experts we're talking about because the US seems to have a flood of experts that don't seem to know anything Well, President Donald Trump has asserted that the military's weekend strike against Iran Completely and totally obliterated its nuclear weapon making capabilities There are still questions about whether the ground penetrating bunker buster bombs used to attack Iran's key enrichment sites

Starting point is 00:31:04 Were enough to stop the rogue country from developing a nuclear bomb. A report released last week by the Center for Strategic and International Studies, CSIS, explains that the special bunker buster bombs the US used in Iran over the weekend that everyone is talking about, known as the GBU-57 Massive Ordnance Penetrators, or MOPs, might not be able to fully destroy the Iranian nuclear facility at Fordow, which Trump said was gone. Now following this strike, it's considered central to Iran's nuclear weapon making capabilities. Meanwhile, a satellite imagery expert relayed to Reuters that confirmation of below ground

Starting point is 00:31:39 destruction cannot be determined via pictures alone because the facility's hundreds of centrifuges are too deeply buried in order to make an accurate determination That's right. They don't know for sure. They're just going to claim victory. We're sure it's gone. We destroyed it Well, actually we can't be sure it's too deep Actually have a little bit of a rosier view on things Andrea Strickler deputy director at the foundation for defense of democracies Ah, yes, as I've been saying. Isn't it wonderful we're out there defending democracies? Truly a beautiful thing. Thank you, Andrea Stricker. We cannot thank you enough for going

Starting point is 00:32:17 out there and spilling your blood and your hard-earned treasure to defend democracy. Except I imagine that all she does is lobby for us to do that. Non-proliferation and biodefense program told Fox News Digital, I think that because of the massive damage in the shockwave that would have been sent by 12 massive ordnance penetrators at the Ford House site that it will render its centrifuges damaged or inoperable. Stryker noted that centrifuges are very delicate and the kind of shock wave coming from the mops would at least put them out of commission. She also said if any centrifuges did survive the blast it would be likely that they would

Starting point is 00:32:52 be inaccessible by Iranian authorities for several months. Underground facilities present a difficult target not only for destruction but also in terms of follow-on battle damage assessment added Wes Roomba, a fellow in the missile defense project at CSIS. The United States and Israel will likely need to invest additional intelligence resources to determine the true extent of the damage from the US strikes and their long-term effect on Iranian nuclear infrastructure. We're going to devote more time and energy to monitoring Iran and make sure that they are in compliance with our wishes.

Starting point is 00:33:29 You will bow to the US and Israel. You will do as we say. In addition to Fordow, the US used its MOPs and an Iranian enrichment facility called Natanz. According to Stricker, at least 1,000 centrifuges are located also in an above-ground enrichment plant and other labs capable of making uranium metal. According to the International Atomic Energy Agency, IAEA, the above-ground labs had previously been damaged by Israeli airstrikes, destroying the plant's electrical infrastructure.

Starting point is 00:33:55 Meanwhile, satellite imagery following the US's decision to drop two MOPs on Natan shows two craters located where the site's underground enrichment facilities are reportedly located. However, it is still not clear if the US attacks completely destroyed the underground nuclear infrastructure. Either way, Stryker noted, the significant damage to Iran's Natanz facility will create a bottleneck in the country's supply chain for weapons-grade uranium, which will significantly impact Iran's nuclear weapon making capabilities. That's right, put a bottleneck there. The first they were sprinting, now there's a bottleneck. Except we don't know. We're continually told, oh it's a giant strike, it's a big strike, the best

Starting point is 00:34:43 strike. Well maybe not, we don't know for certain. Well there's a bottleneck. It's a big strike. The best strike. Well, maybe not. We don't know for certain. Well, there's a bottleneck. They can't seem to make up their mind on how effective the strike was. Donald Trump's team. A comment from dead. Fox News and much of the other media are so excited about the Bunker Buster. They sound like the general from Dr. Strangelove, so excited about a B-52 flying overhead.

Starting point is 00:35:06 That's right. Fox News loves its war propaganda. They love all the footage that comes out of it. They love to stand up and salute the flag and watch as the bombs fall down. Strike set back Iran's nuclear program by only a few months, US report says. Preliminary classified findings indicate that the attack sealed off the entrances to two facilities, but did not collapse their underground buildings. That's right. We did all this. We struck them.

Starting point is 00:35:39 We engaged in an illegal military action to simply set them back a few months. A preliminary classified U.S. report says, American bombing of three nuclear sites in Iran set back the country's nuclear program by only a few months, according to officials familiar with the findings. The strike sealed off the entrances to two of the facilities, but did not collapse underground buildings, the officials said, the early findings concluded.

Starting point is 00:36:09 That's right, it had the effect of putting a little bit of that caution tape in front of it says, do not enter. Before the attack, US intelligence agencies had said that if Iran tried to rush to making a bomb, it would take about three months. But of course, this is the line that has been parroted and fed to us over and over again by Benjamin Netanyahu for the past 30 years. Iran has been two weeks to three months from building a nuclear bomb for 30 years. Time seems to move differently in the Middle East. It doesn't seem to follow a linear progression, it just kind of moves around at Benjamin Netanyahu's behest and request. Whatever he and the Mossad want is however far Iran seems to be from the bomb.

Starting point is 00:36:53 Isn't that funny? It would take about three months. After the U.S. bombing run and days of attacks by Israeli Air Force, the report by the Defense Intelligence Agency estimated that the program had been delayed, but by less than six months. Oh no, I suppose we'll just have to continue to bomb them. I'll have to stretch out that time indefinitely. You know, for only gaining about three months per every two bomb dropped, this will take forever. We're gonna have to hit them with so many bombs to stretch that timeline out. Comment from Ted, it only cost about two hundred about 240 million to set them back a couple weeks. Well, I mean, that's a bargain. 240 million? How could we say no to that? The report also said that much of Iran's stockpile of enriched uranium was moved before the strikes, which destroyed little of the nuclear material.

Starting point is 00:37:42 Iran may have moved some of that to secret locations. Well, I imagine they would have. I imagine they're not just gonna put it right out in the open. They're not gonna mark with a big old sign that says uranium here, please bomb. Some Israeli officials said they also believed that the Iranian government had maintained small covert enrichment facilities so it could continue its nuclear program in the event of an attack on the larger facilities. its nuclear program in the event of an attack on the larger facilities. Other officials noted that the report found that the three nuclear sites, Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan had suffered moderate to severe damage. The facility at Natanz damaged the most.

Starting point is 00:38:15 It is not clear whether the Iranians will try to rebuild the programs. I think it's pretty clear that they probably will. They understand that giving in to the United States and Israel is no guarantee of safety. Whether they are continuing to enrich the uranium or not, chances are the US will find some way to pretend they are. Or Israel will release a report from Assad that says, oh, they have a secret program going on where they're enriching it. We know this is true so we're going to have to invade. Iran is part of what Israel wants to do away with. They're not going to simply stop because Iran gives up on nuclear enrichment. It's a tweet from Dad. You can find him on Twitter at Libertarian. The look on this kid's face says cosplay.

Starting point is 00:39:07 From part-time grocery clerk to the counter-terrorism head, Trump is a joke. A joke that we already knew what the punchline would be since we've seen his previous show. This is about Thomas Fugate, the 22 year old gardener and grocery clerk, in charge of the counter-terrorism. This is who is in charge of our counterterrorism operations now. The expression is great. The Bond. James Bond. He looks completely out of his depth. He looks like he's trying to emulate something he's seen on TV You know We were all young once I don't hold that against him. It's not his youth and inexperience It's the fact that he is now in charge of our counterterrorism and is simply LARPing as you said James Bond

Starting point is 00:40:00 What a what a time to be alive I What a time to be alive. I mean it really makes you wonder how this guy whose only experience is working at HEB grocery stores got into such a high position. Maybe he was in loss prevention, you know? Maybe he was tasked with shadowing people around the store and make sure they didn't steal pineapples and zucchinis and that kind of thing. Perhaps he's the perfect man for the job. Assistant to the regional manager.

Starting point is 00:40:33 Exactly. Trump takes victory lap, but pitfalls remain. This is by Anthony Zurcher. Aboard Air Force One on route to the NATO summit in the Netherlands, Trump shared a personal text message from a somewhat unlikely source. It was sent by NATO boss Mark Ruta, who praised the American president for what he had accomplished in using US bombers to attack Iran's nuclear facilities. Congratulations, and thank you for your decisive action in Iran, wrote Ruta in a message the president posted to his Truth Social account.

Starting point is 00:41:02 That was truly extraordinary, and something no one else dared to do. I wonder why no one else dared to do it. Could it be because it was immoral? Could it be because it was wrong? I have a comment from Dad. Every country has to understand that nuclear weapons are the only way they can be protected against the US or Israel. It's a nuclear arms race. We have made sure that they understand the only thing that we respect is potential nuclear fallout. A mutually assured destruction scenario is the only thing that will keep the United States at bay. Otherwise, we have no reason not to mess with your country in any way we see fit. We will put boots on the ground or we will use the CIA to dest mess with your country in any way we see fit. We will put boots on

Starting point is 00:41:45 the ground or we will use the CIA to destabilize your country. We will pump it full of money, full of odd strange little color revolution tactics. Ruta addressed that as well telling Trump he was flying into another big success at the NATO summit. Our member nations had agreed to Trump's demand to boost defense spending to 5% of their gross domestic product. It will be your win, he concluded. That's right, aren't you just wonderful, President Trump?

Starting point is 00:42:13 You're so incredible and amazing. You bombed Iran, you did what no one else would do. You wonderful, wonderful man. The warm words and the president's eagerness to share them to the world illustrated just how much the diplomatic equation in the Middle East and among US allies has changed for Trump. Last week he left the G7 summit in Canada a day early as conflict raged between Israel and Iran and it appeared increasingly likely the US would join the fight.

Starting point is 00:42:38 Americans attacked Iran's nuclear facilities on Saturday night. By Tuesday morning the President departed Washington for another international trip. This time with a fragile ceasefire established between the two warring parties. Ruta's text, which a NATO press officer confirmed to the BBC as authentic, dovetails with the accounts provided on and off the record by White House officials. Trump's military strike removed the threat of Iranian nuclear weapons. His actions triggered the ceasefire and ended what he calls the 12-day war. Oh isn't that wonderful? Donald Trump, the savior of the Middle East. Just ignore the fact that he's going to you know bulldoze Gaza and put in a casino. His involvement and his pressure including an angry outburst

Starting point is 00:43:19 directed at both sides on Tuesday morning with the White House called an exceptionally firm and direct phone call with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Oh, he got him on the phone. He was scolding him. He was so firm and direct with him. I'm sure he said many mean words, many important words that Benjamin Netanyahu

Starting point is 00:43:39 will be forced to listen to. It'll be forced to back down and do what he's told, right? No, we see, we know that the influence flows the other way here. We understand that Israel is the one that really calls the shots in this relationship. That they're the one, despite the fact that America, Donald Trump was talking about how, oh I don't think they're going to strike. We've got a good relationship. They did it anyway.

Starting point is 00:44:06 Israel is the one that calls the shots. Last week, America's allies were anxious. Now it appears Trump is heading to Europe with the intention of basking in their praise. That's right. He's going to go revel. He's going to go sit there and absorb all the adoration that these sycophants can muster up. The outlook, however, is more complicated than that. The administration touts that the U S bombing rate obliterated Iran's nuclear research facilities. US military intelligence officials have told American media that the damage is not as severe as the White House has claimed. The country's nuclear program has probably only been set back by months, according to a preliminary Pentagon intelligence assessment. That's right.

Starting point is 00:44:43 $240 million for a couple months of setback. Well, we're getting a deal on that. I mean, obviously, Iran is a maniacal state. Comment from Dad, when you consider that Trump's parade was $45 million, it's a steal. Of course, there is the loss of life, but I'm sure the government doesn't care about that. Yeah, I mean, $240 million to stop total nuclear annihilation? How could we say no? It's our duty to keep bombing Iran into the dirt

Starting point is 00:45:17 over and over again, isn't it? We must continue to bomb them. It is the only path forward. must continue to bomb them. It is the only path forward. Rubio spokeswoman sparks MAGA anger over US Israel comments. That's right, Secretary of State Marco Rubio's spokeswoman angered President Donald Trump's America verse following by appearing to suggest the United States sits next to Israel in terms of being the best country in the world. That's right, we're both tied neck and neck. The two best countries in the world and isn't it wonderful that we just so happen to be such good friends. We have

Starting point is 00:45:55 the clip here. Let's see. She doesn't just say that America is as good as Israel, she says it's the second best nation. Go ahead and play that, I can't seem to find it. The pride of being able to be here and do work that facilitates making things better for people and in the greatest country on earth, next to Israel is it's an honor to be able to make a difference and to be able to speak in this regard with an administration that I love so much and I and that I feel genuinely represented by. It's a real honor. Isn't that wonderful. Next to Israel. Has to to clarify that has to make sure she gets that out She's another one of these Zionist sycophants state department spokeswoman

Starting point is 00:46:54 Isn't Who are all these bureaucrats and where do they come from how do they all end up like this? Tammy Bruce made the quip during an appearance last month on the Israeli TV show I24 News. Her comments on May 8th passed unremarked at the time, but resurfaced online on Sunday when internet chatter was busy in the wake of America's show of support for Israel with an attack on Iran. That's right, the greatest countries on the planet. That's us. The USA and Israel. And if you have a problem with that, buddy, we're going to bomb you into the ground. It'll be a preemptive strike. It'll be a disgusting, infamous attack.

Starting point is 00:47:33 But we're still the greatest countries in the world. Don't you forget about that. Being great has nothing to do with being honorable, with following the just war principle. It has everything to do with the size of your military and your willingness to kill civilians. That's what being great is. Maverick Pilgrim, thank you very much for the support, that is very kind. All of this nuclear threat is part of the big new story that began with World War I. War is now part of the politics, not a failure of politics. Do what we say or there will be WWX. Constant Living Threat, that's right. We're forever on the brink of a world war. We're forever just on the cusp of it and if you don't do what they say we're

Starting point is 00:48:12 gonna tumble over that cliff. Bumbling homesteader, she can go live there then that's right. If she loves Israel so much you would think she might actually live there and engage in politics in their country, but instead she's over here in America Using the influence she has to forward Israel's agenda here because that's the way it always goes They're always going to spill out our blood and treasure for them Just don't call it a war. This is from reason the Trump administration toys with regime change in iran our own constitutional regime takes another hit Mystery driver jordan rides on the national mall. We're not at war with iran. We're merely bombing the country. That's right We're merely bombing them. It's not a war

Starting point is 00:48:59 We're just dropping bombs on them. It's just a silly little spat War is... Go ahead and play the clip. Nuclear program has been effectively destroyed. Is the United States now at war with Iran? No, Kristen, we're not at war with Iran. We're at war with Iran's nuclear program. And let me just say, Kristen, that we're incredibly grateful and proud of the American Air Force pilots who did an incredible job last

Starting point is 00:49:36 night. The operation was really extraordinary. These guys flew from Missouri. They didn't land a single time. They dropped 30,000 pound bombs on a target the size of a washing machine. And then that's right. We're not at war with Iran. It's simply a war on part of their infrastructure. Isn't that wonderful? I was worried that would be a war with the whole country, but simply being at war with their nuclear agency, that's not so bad. Their nuclear program. That's not the worst. I mean, you know, there are certainly worse things we could be at war with their nuclear agency, that's not so bad. Their nuclear program, that's not the worst. I mean, you know, there's certainly worse things we could be at war with.

Starting point is 00:50:10 We aren't at war with the country, we're at war with the specific locations that the bombs hit. And hey, everyone there is already dead, so war is won. Exactly. If you are next to the bombs, you're fine, we weren't aiming there. And you know, if they were to retaliate perhaps Iran wouldn't be at war with us they would be at war with our power grid or our shipping avenues our freight lines they would not be at war with the United States they had they would be at war with part of our commerce update Israel

Starting point is 00:50:39 working for regime change now Trump wants regime change in Iran. He changed his tune after Israel changed its tune as well. Isn't that funny how that happens? Huh. Update. Israeli Minister of Heritage Amil Hay Eliyahu declared this morning they are working with the opposition in Iran for regime change. Israel attacked Evin Prison, a notorious spot for persecution and execution of resistance elements in country. That's right. We're once again working on regime change because that worked out so well for Iran in the past and we engaged in it in 1953 with Operation Ajax. We took out Mosaddegh and put in the Shah of Iran who was a brutally repressive and wicked leader.

Starting point is 00:51:26 Did what we wanted and was allowed to abuse and torment and torture his people. We didn't care about that, just as long as he followed what we wanted and what Israel seemed to want. It was no big deal. Do whatever you want. Following orders from Prime Minister Ninyan and Defense Minister Katz, the IDF is striking regime and security targets in central Tehran, putting the Basij HQ, even prison, and the Israel Destruction Clock, IRGC, and internal security, HQ Zamora, reported the clash report.

Starting point is 00:52:02 That's the very scary clock, which is, you know is a prop that counts down to the destruction of Israel. It's very, very spooky. So glad they got rid of that. Long live freedom, Israeli foreign minister confirms. Even prison in Tehran was attacked by Israel. That's right, long live freedom, says the man bombing and destroying a country. President Trump just posted on his Truth Social account that regime change in Iran wouldn't be a bad idea. If he intends to use American forces, this is how mission creep starts. That's right. Regime change, that's not such a bad idea. It's a, you know, it's a made up of two good words regime. That's a fun word to say. And you know change. Everyone likes

Starting point is 00:52:42 change. You change your clothes and that's nice so regime change it's just two nice words strung together not that bad a deal at all we've got the well we had it somewhere this regime change is different from the others because of course we've got a smart president now according to Vance I guess exactly here if you want me to play it I was looking for the post from true social, but I can't seem to locate it on the deck oh well Fox News was crow crowing for days about how this would be just one whoosh of a bunker buster and I'll be done

Starting point is 00:53:25 ridiculous propaganda We've been crowing for days about how this would be just one whoosh of a bunker buster and all be done. Ridiculous propaganda. We've seen them say this kind of thing over and over again. Oh, you know, it's going to be a very quick mission. It's surgical strike and then it's done. And then we're entangled in the Middle East for another 20 years. We're in there and it's leading to collateral damage over and over again. Men, women, and children are being killed daily. Our men are coming home broken, maimed, or coming home in a casket. All for some very quick in and out surgical strikes. Isn't that how it always seems to happen. Oil spiked 4% to above $80 for Brent crude after the American air strikes on Iran. Soon it will be, soon

Starting point is 00:54:15 it will be, we need American troops on the ground to remove the nuclear material. And as you saw yesterday, Ted Cruz didn't know anything about what's going on with Iran Tucker Carlson rightly called him out on that In 2003 the Iraqi population was about 24 to 25 million The current Iranian population is around 90 million so We're gonna be very very rough with it and say close to four times the population size. Iraq is about 169 kilometers squared. Iran is 636 kilometers squared.

Starting point is 00:54:55 636,000, 169,000. My apologies. It is a much much larger country. We have been unable to fix Iraq. We were capable of destroying it, but we weren't really capable of fixing it or holding it or doing anything meaningful with it. It's a much, much smaller country, a dramatically smaller country. If we become embroiled in a war in Iran, it will be a devastating war. It will end up with many many dead US soldiers You know what Iran needs is a bunch of poppy fields. Exactly. Make cocaine not nukes We're gonna you're gonna grow some heroin for us aren't you bud?

Starting point is 00:55:35 That's what you want to do Trump hits at regime hints at regime change in Iran amid questions over damage from US strikes on nuclear sites That's right. Regime change? Those aren't dirty words. It's just a lot of fun. It's fun for you and the boys. Those concerns may continue to mount as both Mr. Trump and Israeli officials hint at hopes that military operations could result in the fall of Iran's theocratic rulers.

Starting point is 00:56:01 As Iran's top diplomat visits Russia looking for support from a key ally, Israel is also expanding its list of targets in Iran to hit sites linked directly to the ruling theocracy's grip on power. The thing that I find funny is if these strikes are causing people to call for regime change, if they're like, all right, look, we've got to do what they say. We've got to get these people out of power We've got to stop doing this then it shows that they are too pragmatic to use the bomb If they're willing to make these kind of concessions that are willing to say look anything's worth it to stop this level of bombardment this level of destruction

Starting point is 00:56:41 They are too pragmatic to use the bomb. It is a contradiction in terms. It's It's ridiculous when you look at it like that If they are pragmatic enough to bow to your will in this scenario Then they would not have used it in the first place and as such there was no need for the strike Not that the strike was morally justified no need for the strike. Not that the strike was morally justified. The Office of Israel's Defense Minister said Monday that the military was attacking with unprecedented force regime targets and government repression entities in the heart of Iran. It's the first time Israel has acknowledged striking targets linked to the Iranian regime's domestic authority

Starting point is 00:57:18 rather than its military or nuclear assets. Yeah, Israel doesn't like to acknowledge when they're doing the wrong thing. Mr. Trump had right after the US strike said they would be the extent of America's involvement in the conflict unless Iran launched retaliatory attacks against US assets in the region. But late on Sunday in a social media post, Mr. Trump stoked concern about a possible further escalation of the conflict. If the current Iranian regime is unable to make Iran great again, why wouldn't there Trump stoked concern about a possible further escalation of the conflict. The current Iranian regime is unable to make Iran great again. Why wouldn't there be regime change?

Starting point is 00:57:49 Mr. Trump said, that's right. If you're not going to do what we want, if you're not going to make Iran great again by our definition, not yours, we'll define what a great Iran looks like. We'll tell you the standard and then you'll apply it or else we're going to force you to change. We're going to make sure that it's a standard that complies with what Israel wants. Asked about the president's remarks on Monday, White House press secretary Caroline Levitt said Mr. Trump was just simply raising a question that I think many people around the world are asking. The Iranian regime refuses to give up their nuclear program or engage in talks, we just took out their nuclear program on Saturday night as you all know, but if

Starting point is 00:58:31 they refuse to engage in diplomacy moving forward, why shouldn't the Iranian people rise up against this brutal terrorist regime? That's right. If you're not going to play ball and build your country the way we say, why don't we just engage in a little bit of color revolution here and there? Little color revolution does the body good. North American House Hippo. Claiming Iran's reported nuke program was eliminated was like a boat rescuing the cast away from Gilgamesh Island in the first season.

Starting point is 00:59:01 How can the show possibly continue after that? It's all over, folks. The war is won. Oh wait, oh darn, we needed that war, didn't we? Uh, perhaps not. Perhaps it isn't just over. Another comment from North American Asipo. It will take a week or two, but you'll find out that Gilgamesh dropped a coconut on the professor's two-way radio. That's right, there's always another excuse, there's another reason, there's a plot contrivance to continue everything. Isn't that the way it goes? All right, folks, we're gonna take a quick break and we'll be right back. Stay with us.

Hello, it's me, Vladimir Zelensky. I'm so tired of wearing these same t-shirts everywhere for years.

Starting point is 01:00:46 You'd think with all the billions, I've skimmed off America. I could dress better. And I could, if only David Knight would send me one of his beautiful gray MacGuffin hoodies or a new black t-shirt with the MacGuffin logo in blue. But he told me to get lost. Maybe one of you American suckers can buy me some at TheDavidNightShow.com.

Starting point is 01:01:09 You should be able to buy me several hundred. Those amazing sand-colored microphone hoodies are so beautiful. I'd wear something other than green military cosplay to my various galas and social events. If you want to save on shipping, just put it in the next package of bombs and missiles coming from the USA. Welcome back ladies and gentlemen. Trump jumpstarts MIGA movement every time I say that I'm worried I'm going to slip up. Regime change would make Iran great again and isn't it wonderful that we've got such an intelligent president at the helm right

Starting point is 01:01:56 now? That's what makes a difference here. It's not the immorality or the morality of the issue, it's whether the person at the helm is a smarty pants. And the second thing is, Kristen, I certainly empathize with Americans who are exhausted after 25 years of foreign entanglements in the Middle East. I understand the concern, but the difference is that back then we had dumb presidents and now we have a president who actually knows how to accomplish America's national security objectives So this is not going to be some long drawn-out thing. We've got in We've done the job of setting their nuclear program back

Starting point is 01:02:31 We're gonna now work to permanently dismantle that nuclear program over the coming years And that is what the president has set out to do simple That's right, isn't it wonderful simple That's right, isn't it wonderful He's got in he's got out. He's a man alone unencumbered by paperwork or the Constitution or you know, what's right or what's wrong? He's just a real smart cookie. That's wonderful. He's willing to make these Machiavellian calculations Trump jump-starts mega movementA movement. Regime change would make Iran great again. It's not politically correct to use the term regime change, but if the current Iranian

Starting point is 01:03:09 regime is unable to make Iran great again, why wouldn't there be a regime change? MIGA, Trump wrote on his social media platform, Truth Social. US President Donald Trump on Sunday said regime change in Iran would make Iran great again, a reference to his own campaign slogan, America great again stop politically correct Trump ordered the bombing of three major Iran nuclear facilities on Saturday the Iranian regime has threatened retaliation for the attack that's right but Trump's a smart individual it's wonderful to have such a smart man at the helm engaging in these unconstitutional actions. It's so great to see him, you know, and know that he's out there intelligently subverting

Starting point is 01:03:53 these other countries, blowing up their nuclear facilities. Are you crazy? Or just plain stupid? Stupid as stupid does, Mrs. Bloke. I guess That's right stupid is as stupid does and it seems That Donald Trump might not be as Intelligent as the people around him want to make him out to be gonna comment from dad Isn't it interesting how the Ukraine Russia war has disappeared? That's right No more news about that right now. We've got other things to focus on. Our greatest ally is in danger. We've got to focus on that. They're the ones that

Starting point is 01:04:29 get all the press time now. The Kabuki theater of Trump's ceasefire. This is from The Daily Skeptic. At 4 a.m. Tehran time this morning, U.S. President Donald Trump took to True Social to declare what happened to be the conclusion, at least temporarily, of a spiraling and increasingly bizarre set of twists and turns in the Middle East conflict. A ceasefire agreement between Israel and Iran, and his usual performance of bravado, President Trump announced that both parties had agreed to stop the escalation. A ceasefire, however fragile, follows a sequence of decisions and statements so erratic and contradictory that they could have only emerged from the theater of American politics under Trump 2.0. What began as a unilateral surprise, Israeli strike against Iranian nuclear facilities

Starting point is 01:05:14 on June 13th, occurred during ongoing negotiations between Tehran and Washington over the Islamic Republic's nuclear program. This calculated move by Tel Aviv blindsided not only the mullahs of Tehran, but ostensibly the White House itself, President Trump initially claiming ignorance of the Israeli operation later shifted his position multiple times, first expressing disapproval, then promising to wait two weeks only to unleash the full might of US strategic air power within days. According to Israeli officials, the goal was clear, to decapitate Iran's nuclear ambitions through a swift and targeted campaign.

Starting point is 01:05:47 The offensive launched in the early hours of June 13, rapidly destroyed key Iranian military and scientific installations, assassinated top nuclear scientists, and left Tehran scrambling to respond. What followed from Washington was vintage Trump. Chaos cloaked in confidence. After initially distancing himself from the Israeli action, Trump shocked allies and adversaries alike by authorizing a massive US aerial bombardment of three Iranian nuclear sites. Deploying B-2 bombers, armed with bunker-busting munitions and submarine-launched cruise missiles, the US strike escalated the conflict with

Starting point is 01:06:21 brutal firepower. Though what remains of Iran's enrichment infrastructure and uranium stockpiles can only be guessed at Got comments here nights of the storm defrauded nukes and wanted to destroy israel. It would have been a parking lot 30 years ago. That's right But no jason you have to understand iran is permanently in a superposition of being both two weeks from making the bomb And never possessing it. They are Schrödinger's nuclear power. They both have their nuclear capabilities completely destroyed while also being two weeks from it at any given time. It's a truly unique geographical area.

Starting point is 01:07:01 The rules of time and space don't seem to apply there. It's whatever Netanyahu says. So look at 1980. They always use the word regime to demonize a government they don't like. Yes, any government that we have a problem with is a regime, not our wonderful, glorious democracy. What followed from Washington was vintage Trump, chaos cloaked in confidence. Unsurprisingly on June 23rd, Iran's parliamentary National Security Committee endorsed a framework

Starting point is 01:07:28 bill to suspend cooperation with the IAEA, including halting inspections, camera installations, and reporting unless Iran's nuclear sites are deemed secure. This has yet to be approved by Parliament and the President. The U.S. President's calculus appears to have been part public relations, part military doctrine, with an eye on November and growing discontent among his MAGA base, figures such as Tucker Carlson and Steve Bannon had already voiced concern that Trump had once again been played by Netanyahu into an entangling foreign war. The President seems to have decided that a quick show of strength followed by a clean exit would be his best political lifeline by declaring that the US strikes were a spectacular success

Starting point is 01:08:08 that had obliterated Iran's nuclear sites. This provides the US president with an off-ramp to the conflict on a high note. That's right, well he's got to come in and do something, right? He's got to strike them at least once. America has no business being involved in this at all. Iranhran's response was in a word theatrical. A volley of six missiles was fired toward the large US military base in Qatar, an act that may seem hostile on its face, but evidence quickly emerged that Tehran had given Doha advance notice, according to Bloomberg. Tehran's missile attack on a US air base in Qatar was telegraphed all in advance, suggesting

Starting point is 01:08:41 Tehran intended a symbolic show of force, while offering a way to de-escalate after US airstrikes over the weekend. Not a single missile struck a target. This tit-for-tat performance provided Iran with its performative retaliation while ensuring that the fallout with its Gulf Arab neighbor was contained. Shield your eyes. War is peace. That's right. War is peace.

Starting point is 01:09:02 You have to bomb the countries into submission so you can have peace. You have to strike at them. Following Trump's ceasefire announcement, the Iranian Foreign Minister Sayed Abbas Harahi said, "'As Iran has repeatedly made clear, Israel launched war on Iran, not the other way around. Provided that the Israeli regime stops its illegal aggression against the Iranian people no later than 4 a.m.

Starting point is 01:09:22 to Iran time, we have no intention to continue our response afterwards. Jittery oil markets took this as a signal that escalation was unlikely. Brent and WTI crude prices plunged by more than 7%. In hours of the tepid Iranian response, the drops reflected traders' growing confidence that neither side sought to drag the region into a long war, at least for now. Indeed for Tehran the stakes could not be higher. Shuttering the straight of Hormuz or selectively attacking tanker traffic threats floated by regime hardliners remains unlikely given the enormous economic and diplomatic costs on

Starting point is 01:09:58 its Gulf neighbors. China which imports over 40% of its oil from the Gulf states and has close diplomatic and economic relations with Iran, would certainly be concerned with any disruption of the oil flow out of the Strait of Hormuz. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu having claimed that this object was nearly met had shown interest in winding down the conflict. We won't pursue our actions beyond what is needed," he said. Well, I'm sure they'll just continue to assassinate scientists, killing them and their family members, doing whatever they need to, whatever they feel they're justified in doing, which

Starting point is 01:10:35 is anything and everything, up to murder. We won't pursue our actions beyond what is needed. Again. That is no consolidation. That is nothing to be happy about when it's coming from Israel, who is willing to bomb women and children. What is needed? Assassination of their scientists and their family members. Instead of the weekend, underscoring that Israel did not seek a war of attrition, the less-than-impressive performance of Israel's Iron Dome air defense system and daily videos of buildings destroyed

Starting point is 01:11:08 by direct hits from Iranian missiles in Tel Aviv, Beersheba, Haifa, and other cities over the past week increased the pressure on the Israeli Prime Minister to assure citizens already fatigued by the Gaza war. Comment from Tunnellord1337. Well based on the statements from earlier, if the nuclear program was simply set back a few months, I guess we'll have another conflict like this in a few months. That's right. We'll be back playing the same old games. Israel's economy already strained by the ongoing conflict with Hamas and Gaza is buckling under wartime restrictions. Airspace closure, shuttered schools, attacks on its major seaport at Haifa, and halted business operations. A war of attrition would have

Starting point is 01:11:49 favored Iran, already under heavy US and EU sanctions over Israel, the latter having an open trade oriented economy dependent on the free flow of goods, services, and finance. For President Trump, this morning's ceasefire declaration, if it holds, serves as both a strategic win and a political reprieve Gone are the bellicose threats of fire and fury he once again He can once again remind his MAGA base and outspoken supporters such as Tucker Carlson and Steve Bannon But he is the one leader who ends wars rather than starts them ceasefire achieve Trump posted Let's keep it that way. Well, you know first first, I guess, I suppose you have to actually fire something

Starting point is 01:12:27 before you can cease firing. Maybe that's what Trump didn't understand. He was like, cease fire? We haven't fired yet. Oh crap, we need to fire. Gotta fire first before I can cease firing. Now we can cease fire. We fired, I bombed you, we can cease firing.

Starting point is 01:12:41 It's wonderful, isn't it? Audi MRR, good to see you, Audi. I hope you're doing well Everyone is seeing Israel for the evil state that it is and yet our government proceeds with the agenda anyway Well if being revealed as an evil satanic group of pedophiles Doesn't cause us to do anything about our government. I don't see why it would affect our relationships with Israel. So good to see you, Audi. But they're tied at the hip. An article published yesterday

Starting point is 01:13:11 XCI analyst Larry Johnson aptly noted that the entire sequence of fast-paced events resembles kabuki theater on steroids. A carefully choreographed pageant with each actor playing their role to maintain internal legitimacy and geopolitical posture. Israel's strike had to be answered. The US had to project dominance Iran had to save face, and Trump ever the political showman needed a victory that looked like peace, even if lasting peace may remain ephemeral. The Israel-Iran conflict may be momentarily on ice, but the deeper game continues.

Starting point is 01:13:43 Nuclear ambitions, strategic deterrence, and energy geopolitics remain unresolved this ceasefire may hold or it may unravel within days but for now the world exhales and Donald Trump ever the showman gets to exit stage right at least until the next act that's right this is about making sure that Donald Trump gets to look like a hero. He gets to come in and say, We did it boys. We decapitated their nuclear program. And now they're gonna surrender. It's all because of our might. The American military does it again. Isn't it wonderful?

Starting point is 01:14:22 HAL 9000. Mostly peaceful bombing. That's right. We only bombed a small portion of Iran it was mostly peaceful how Trump's weakness betrayed America's interests in Iran in mid February 1945 a dying Franklin Roosevelt on his way home from his final meetings with Stalin and Churchill at Yalta met with Saudi King Ibn Saad on the deck of the USS Quincy on the great bitter lake in Egypt Sa'd on the deck of the USS Quincy on the Great Bitter Lake in Egypt. An account of the conversation from the Office of the Historian of the U.S. State Department reads, in part, His Majesty called attention to the increasing threat to the existence of the Arabs

Starting point is 01:14:56 in the crisis which has resulted from continued Jewish immigration and the purchase of land by the Jews. His Majesty further stated that the Arabs would choose to die rather than yield their land to the Jews. His Majesty stated that the hope of the Arabs is based upon the word of honor of the Allies and upon the well-known love of justice of the United States and upon the expectation that the United States will support them. I don't think anyone would talk about the United States like that anymore. Love of justice?

Starting point is 01:15:27 It was a different time. The President replied that he wished to assure His Majesty that he would do nothing to assist the Jews against the Arabs and would make no move hostile to the Arab people. He reminded His Majesty that it is impossible to prevent speeches and resolutions in Congress or in the press, which may be made on any subject. His reassurance concerned his own future policy as Chief Executive of the United States government. His Majesty thanked the President for his statement and mentioned the proposal to send an Arab mission to America and England to expound the case of the Arabs in Palestine. The President stated that he thought this was a very good idea because he thought many

Starting point is 01:16:03 people in America and England were misinformed. What Saud was saying, in other words, was why should Arabs have to pay the price for Germany's crimes? And even then, the longest serving president in our history recognized that when it comes to politics of the Levant, the lobby rules. In 75 years since its founding, Israel has repeatedly undermined the United States and has murdered numerous American civilians, as well as 34 members of the crew of the USS Liberty Still more Israel poses a unique

Starting point is 01:16:29 Continuing and dangerous counterintelligence threat it acts with impunity because Congress is bought and paid for by money funneled to it from its domestic lobby APAC It treats US presidents like doormats Bill Clinton famously asked after his meeting with Netanyahu in 1996, Who the F does he think he is? Who's the superpower here? Good question. Who's the superpower here?

Starting point is 01:16:57 Americans are increasingly asking themselves to regard Israel at what point does it become enough? We seem, as a people, unable to elect presidents or even more than a handful of that of senators and congressmen who are willing to place American interests before Israeli interests. Joe Biden spent much of his last year in office doing his level best to make the United States complicit in its genocidal campaign against the Palestinians. On Saturday night, Donald J. Trump caved to the demands of the entitled cynical and entirely loathsome Benjamin Netanyahu and his powerful loyalists in America, including radio presenter

Starting point is 01:17:31 Mark Levin, mogul Rupert Murdoch, and casino heiress Miriam Adelson, to commit an act of war against Iran on false pretenses. Indeed, there were no more nuclear devices under the mountain than there were WMDs in Iraq. Reports are now surfacing that John Ratcliffe, the deeply unimpressive and wholly dishonest director of central intelligence had in the manner of George Tenet, cooked the books. In response to all this, Iranian state television issued a warning on Sunday morning. Now every American citizen or military personnel constitutes a legitimate target. Let us speak plainly and without pretense. This is a war of Israel's making. But it is a war that Donald Trump was too weak and too vainglorious to stop.

Starting point is 01:18:16 This is from antiwar.com. It's by James Carden. It's a very good article. It is right. Donald Trump was too weak and too vainglorious to stop it, looking for monsters to destroy for Israel's benefit. We got some comments. Angry Tigers Den. This screams soap opera. Script all of a sudden opposing forces are announcing to each other they are going to attack I'm no war general what kind of strategy is this yes I don't remember that I don't remember that that you're supposed to of course announce where and when you're going to attack and what they can do to stop it stealth

Starting point is 01:18:59 patriot we failed to bring democracy or peace to any of the Middle Eastern nations that we bombed so the next logical thing is to keep bombing. That's right If at first you don't succeed try try again. Mom didn't raise no quitter So we're not gonna leave the Middle East until it's all completely rubble or they've accepted democracy Though of course, you know, it's a lot easier to turn something into rubble with bombs than it is to Give them some semblance of freedom. So we'll just see what happens I suppose. So like Goy, what do they think Iran is going to do? Get one bomb and use it and risk getting hit with 50? The entire story is irrational.

Starting point is 01:19:34 Yeah it's never held, it's never been rational or made any sense to me. They're gonna get one and then they're going to get absolutely annihilated. They're going to be removed from the face of the earth. That's the story that they're going with and they're gonna stick to it. KWD 68. Gotta love a ceasefire that lets one side attack for a bonus round. That's right. You cease firing and we'll, you know, we'll maybe cease firing but we also may not cease firing. But if you respond to us not respecting the ceasefire then you've disrespected the ceasefire And so that gives us justification to ignore the ceasefire that we were already ignoring It's a very interesting type of negotiation that Israel has engaged in

Starting point is 01:20:19 very good for them, I suppose for them I suppose. Shaky Israel Iran ceasefire appears to hold after Trump tells Israel to stop the bombing. Fragile ceasefire between Israel and Iran appears to be holding after it got off to a shaky start and President Trump publicly urged Israel to stop the bombing. Trump announced the truce on Wednesday night which was followed by heavy Israeli attacks on Tehran. Iran then hit back with several waves of ballistic missiles. That's right, he announces the truth on Wednesday. Israel strikes again.

Starting point is 01:20:50 Iran violated it, but Israel violated it too, Trump told reporters. Well, it should be said that Israel violated it and Iran responded to their attack. That's how you would correctly phrase that, if you didn't want to make it seem as though Iran was the aggressor when Israel was. Trump told reporters on the White House lawn before boarding Marine One to go to the NATO

Starting point is 01:21:12 summit in the Hague, Israel as soon as he made the deal they came out and dropped a load of bombs the likes of which I've never seen before. The biggest load that we've ever seen. I'm not happy with Israel. Well I don't think being happy with Israel means anything when they have their hands so deeply embedded in our government. When Trump announced the ceasefire, he said it would take effect in 12 hours. When I say, okay, now you have 12 hours, you don't go out in the first hour and draw everything you have on them. So I'm not happy with them. I'm not happy with Iran either, but I'm

Starting point is 01:21:41 really unhappy if Israel is going out this morning because of one rocket Trump said According to a report from Axios Iran fired three missiles that were either intercepted or landed in open areas and Israel sent fighter Jets to bomb Iran about the same time Trump was speaking to reporters After this after his comments Trump wrote on true social social Israel Do not drop those bombs if you do it is a major violation. Major. Bring your pilots home now. Donald J. Trump, President of the United States. Axios reports said that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu then spoke to Trump, said he could cancel the airstrikes, but that Israel significantly scaled back the planned attack

Starting point is 01:22:18 and targeted only one radar system in a follow-up post. Well, you know, we're scaling back our violation of the ceasefire. It's not going to be a major violation. It'll be a small minor violation. Isn't that wonderful? You'll barely even notice that we bombed them and killed a bunch of people. It'll be a minor bombing. A very tiny bomb. Where is Iran's uranium? Top secret. Leaked leaked US Intel says core nuclear components intact. KWD68 has a comment here. You must start the war to end the war. That's right. You can't end a war that hasn't been started yet. How can you look like a big old hero if you don't have someone to save? You've got to have chaos to bring order to it. Where is Iran's uranium?

Starting point is 01:23:05 Top secret leaked US intel says core nuclear components intact. Iranians aren't dumb and likely took drastic steps to further protect, conceal, or likely move these enriched stockpiles. Some 400 kilograms, according to most reports, as a wave after wave of Israeli warplanes hit Iran significantly before the US sent its bombers this past weekend. It appears core components are still intact, though Iran has long maintained it is merely for peaceful nuclear energy development.

Starting point is 01:23:35 New York Times is currently reporting that the US operation merely set Iran's nuclear program back by a few months. And further, big media allegations based on US social and intel assessment that the Iranians moved their enriched uranium. US bombs didn't collapse underground Iranian nuke buildings, says New York Times. According to well-placed sources who have seen the classified DIA assessment of the bomb damage assessment, BDA, after the US military strikes last weekend, DIA assesses that the Iran nuclear program could be back online in a matter of months,

Starting point is 01:24:08 from one to two months on the low end. Early emerging intelligence also points to the stockpile having not been destroyed, which contradicts the current victory lap claims being made by President Trump and some of his top officials in a huge development. Blows fresh CNN reporting based on leaked assessment by the Defense Intelligence Agency. The assessment, which has not been previously reported, was produced by the Defense Intelligence Agency, the Pentagon's intelligence arm. It is based on a battle damage assessment conducted by U.S. Central Command, the aftermath

Starting point is 01:24:39 of the U.S. strikes, one of the sources said. The analysis of the damage to the sites and the impact of the strikes on Iran's nuclear ambitions is ongoing. A change is more intelligence becomes available. But the early findings are at odds with President Donald Trump's repeated claims that the strikes completely and totally obliterated Iran's nuclear enrichment facilities. They're gone. I obliterated them.

Starting point is 01:24:59 We're going to have peace. We're going to have peace. Now that we've bombed them, we're going to cease firing. One unnamed defense official quoted in the report says, Centrifuges are largely intact. And more based on the apparently top secret leaked DIA until report. And you'll, of course, remember earlier in the show we were covering some other person saying, well, centrifuges are incredibly delicate.

Starting point is 01:25:18 And they're most likely gone. But now we're being told even those are likely still intact. So these delicate pieces of machinery are still apparently ready for more work. Couldn't even destroy a delicate piece of machinery it seems. Not as effective as Donald Trump wants you to believe, is it? So the DIA assessment is that the US set them back maybe a few months tops, this person added. White House acknowledged the existence of the assessment but said they disagreed with it.

Starting point is 01:25:46 CNN reports that an initial U.S. intelligence assessment says that the U.S. didn't destroy Iran's nuclear facilities. It set the program back only by a few months. The White House acknowledged the assessment was real but said it disagrees with it and that it was leaked by a loser. So this appears yet another case with the White House disagreeing with its own intelligence community.

Starting point is 01:26:08 An ongoing awkward situation which has Iraq War vibes. However, without doubt the IC is still working on an overall consensus based likely on several different intel threads and across agencies. Doesn't seem to be any real consensus in what's going on. Can't seem to get their stories straight. Did they destroy everything? Was it completely obliterated?

Starting point is 01:26:36 Or are the centrifuges still intact? Hard to say, hard to say indeed. Well, I think we'll probably come back to Iran, but we've been covering that for a couple of days now. We're going to take a quick break and when we come back we'll take a look at what's going on with the war on Christians. So stay with us. We'll be right back. But unlike most revolutions where the people rise against a real economic oppression, in our case here in Boston we are fighting for purely an abstract principle. It is however not nearly so abstract as the young gentleman supposes.

Starting point is 01:27:21 The issue involved here is one of monopoly today the british government will monopolize the sale of t in our country tomorrow it will be something else The Liberty, it's your move. So The The liberty. Liberty, it's your move. And now, the David Knight Show. Welcome back folks. We've got a lot of great comments here. Audi MRR, don't forget the number of standing ovations that Netanyahu received in our own halls of Congress. That's right, he comes over and they clap like trained seals. They just put their hands together and whatever he

Starting point is 01:30:35 says, he's like, yes Benjamin, anything you say Benjamin, anything for you Benjamin. Brian Deb McCartney, Toronto dump had to double the six day war bigger better batter. That's right. Six day war. No, no, it's 12 days. T Dub 97401. If their nuclear material have been hit some of the U 235 would have been air lot air salized and would be detected around the world. Seems like maybe they didn't hit anything then huh? kwd68. remember trump isn't dumb like foreign president he's a super genius. wile e trumpy. that's it. wile e trumpy. super genius. super. the second thing is christen i i certainly empathize with americans who are exhausted after 25

Starting point is 01:31:20 years of foreign entanglements in the middle east. i understand the concern but the difference is that back then I feel your pain Residents now we have a president who actually knows how to accomplish America's national security objectives. So this is not That's right folks. It's so wonderful having such an intelligent stable genius at the helm. Isn't it so stable so genius No one could be more stable or more genius. We've got some comments about the Golden Dome that I didn't get to earlier, but comments from Do Not Obey Golden Safety Blankets. I'm safe with a little nerd emoji. That's right, put your Golden Safety Blanket over top of you, put it

Starting point is 01:31:58 right over your head and you'll just be perfectly safe. It won't be a gigantic waste of taxpayer money designed to fight a type of war that we probably won't engage in any longer. It won't do anything to stop these drones that will likely target infrastructure, but you know it'll it'll cost a lot. I'm sure Raytheon and Lockheed Martin and whoever is going to get the contract will be more than happy to supply this boondoggle that will generate tons of revenue for them and then once it doesn't work they'll have to go oh i'm sorry guys but if you give us some more money we can fix it kaw 68 need to build some golden coal powered plants that's right maybe

Starting point is 01:32:39 that's how we get donald trump to sign on to anything they're selling we're gonna paint it gold donnie you don't understand no no those windmills, they're cringe. They're lame and gay. What we want is a big gold coal plant. That's right. We're gonna paint it gold. It's gonna be the most beautiful coal plant in the world Donnie. We're gonna paint it gold and you're gonna love it. I'm Marty. The golden dome is in Donald's imagination on his head. That's right. The only golden dome is Donald Trump's. Shelly A. The dome is not for incoming missiles. They hit our guts. It's to make sure you are incapable of revolting ever. All the weapons of war that are utilized in other countries will eventually be brought back and used against the American people here. That's just how it goes.

Starting point is 01:33:24 As I said, we're going to take a look at what's going on with some insanity here in the United States. That's enough about war insanity for now. We're gonna look at some gender insanity. Begala, California is crazy to allow schools to not tell parents about children transitioning, but Tennessee's ban on children transitioning is wrong. That's right, he's a moderate. He's like, well, you know, you should tell parents, but also,

Starting point is 01:33:52 sure, if your kid wants to mutilate themselves, go for it. Is that what passes for a moderate these days? I'm all for castrating children just so long as we inform the parents that it's going on. Exactly. You've got to inform the parents before you mutilate a child. That's just common sense. This is the type of common sense policy we need to get back to in the United States. This is what we've lost by letting ideologues run the party. A nice good middle ground we can all be happy with. On Friday's broadcast of HBO's real-time CNN political contributor and Democratic strategist Paul Begall- yes this is the Democratic strategist by the way, this is his strategy. We're gonna retake some middle ground by, you know, making

Starting point is 01:34:40 sure their parents are informed, but yeah, mutilate the children. Great strategy, Paul. Real big fan of it. Said that while he disagrees with bans on gender transitions for children, it's crazy for states like California to keep schools from telling parents about their children transitioning. Representative Wesley Hunt, Republican, Texas. This is one of the reasons why the Democrats are losing on an issue like this. Because again, you can't definitively tell. I have a six, a four, and a two-year-old.

Starting point is 01:35:09 My six and four-year-old think they're Anna and Elsa. My little boy thinks he's Lightning McQueen. Ka-chow, buddy. That's great. By the time you're 18 years old, if you want to change your body, you can live and do whatever you want. As long as you want to pay for it. I fought for the right for you to be able to do that. When we are talking about children and underdeveloped human beings and allowing them to make decisions that are going to impact the rest of their life, we must protect them. That's right. Children don't have developed brains. They are extremely susceptible to propaganda.

Starting point is 01:35:39 They can be influenced by outside forces and they don't fully understand what's going on with them. They can be told different things. It is ridiculous to ever believe that we should let them do this to themselves. This is why children have parents. People that love them and can look out for their best interests while they are still developing. Bigala responded, we're people of faith. Bill is not. We believe that God gives children to parents, not politicians in Nashville. The Tennessee legislature doesn't give a rip snort about children or they would address the chief cause of childhood death in Tennessee which is

Starting point is 01:36:21 guns. I want to see some statistics on that, buddy. I want to know where you're getting that from. Why should the politicians decide what parents do? Host Bill Maher responded that those are totally separate issues, adding, and by the way, the issue is quite diverse, like out here in California and in New Jersey. It's the schools who are not allowed to even tell the parents. Biggala responded, that's crazy. I'm consistent. Parents should decide this, not schools and not politicians. I think that it is absolutely reasonable if for the state to come in in this instance and say, no, you're not going to mutilate children. I don't think you have the right to mutilate children. I don't think that's covered under the Constitution. I think it is absolutely fine in this instance for the government to come in and say, Nah, I don't think so, brother. I don't think that you should do that.

Starting point is 01:37:09 I think children need to be protected by any means necessary. And if there is some crazy parent somewhere that is like, Oh, my son thinks he's a girl and so we're going to start putting him on puberty blockers. I think someone needs to come in and stop them because that is child abuse that is evil. That is despicable It's disgusting North American house hippo when I was a boy in high school We're going back nearly 40 years here getting my ear pierced would have resulted in a harsh intervention from my schoolmates Good old days. That's right Times have changed times have certainly changed it. It was a... even when we

Starting point is 01:37:47 were growing up, that kind of thing would have gotten you made fun of and bullied a little bit. We went to church with this one kid one time and he showed up wearing some sparkly rainbow suspenders and rightfully so we all just kind of looked at it and were like, that's that's that's really that's really gay why are you wearing those it was a different time I don't think you could get away with that and definitely not in school but even in many churches you'd probably have a severe talking to a Syrian girl children the government public cesspool systems are indoctrinated approximately six hours a day how many quality hours to their parents have with them to undo the damage?

Starting point is 01:38:28 Yeah, this is something that I've thought about for many years It's just You know the parents working full-time likely both of them are the child is in school for six hours They've got homework when they've got home. They probably got some kind of extracurricular activities They've probably got interests of their own that they're going to engage with there at home The parents have to shower the children have to shower There's all kinds of things that you have to do in a day. How much time do you actually get to spend with your children? How much time do you have to undo the damage?

Starting point is 01:39:02 It's not worth it It is not worth it to send them to these government as you said cesspools out of the convenience like oh well You know, they'll watch them and Allegedly get some kind of education from them there, right? But we see the type of education that they end up getting but we see the type of education that they end up getting. Mer added, I think they're not protecting the children from people coming in and taking advantage. I think of young folks who don't know what's going on.

Starting point is 01:39:31 I didn't know what was going on when I was eight years old. I wasn't happy when I was a teenager. If someone offered this as a solution, I might go for it. They have done studies since then. That's why America is an outlier country with this. All the other countries pulled back on this because they said, we don't know, and sometimes they're just gay this because they said we don't know and sometimes they're just gay and sometimes they're just confused and sometimes they're just depressed. Once you start taking off body parts you can't reverse it. Bill Maher,

Starting point is 01:39:54 voice of reason somehow. Shealy, Shelly A. The teachers are screwballs. Don't send your children into that hellhole. That's right. We've seen the type of people that become public school teachers. As a general rule, they're extreme ideologues. They're there to indoctrinate your children. They flat out admit it. They love putting the trans flag, the LGBT flag up and bragging about how this is the only flag

Starting point is 01:40:20 you'll salute in my classroom. It's truly despicable They join it not because they want to help children But because they want to impose their will upon them to impose their beliefs to indoctrinate them It's utterly disgusting. I have zero respect for the public school system. It was always funny to me when I was growing up a lot of you know Pokemon fever was at its height and then it reached a tipping point where people in the church began to worry like oh this is pushing evolution this is teaching evolution we can't have our

Starting point is 01:40:55 kids enjoying Pokemon can't have them playing Pokemon but they would send their kids to public schools for six hours a day as you said where they were taught evolution they couldn't have them playing a silly little video game, but we can have you go to public schools where they're going to teach you evolution as fact, where they're going to undermine everything that the Bible stands for over and over again. It's always funny to me that so many Christians will look at something like Harry Potter and go well This has anti-christian themes and they're right. It's not wrong to point that out But then they'll send them into a public school, which is far more damaging which is far more dangerous

Starting point is 01:41:38 Without the slightest bit of hesitation. It's like oh well, you know, what are you gonna do? they'll strain at the Pokemon, at the Pikachu, and completely bypass their thought process when it comes to public school, which will indoctrinate them more thoroughly than a video game ever could. Bill Maher. Allowing states to ban transitioning minors helps get Dems to something normal people can vote for. On Friday's broadcast of HBO's Real Time, host Bill Maher stated that the Supreme Court upholding Tennessee's ban on gender transitions for minors is a great first step to getting the Democratic Party back to something that people can respect and normal people can vote for. That's right. Bill Maher understands that the Democrat Party has become so insane on these issues that a lot of people are looking at it and going, oh man, I can't vote for

Starting point is 01:42:33 that. I can't. It's too crazy. That's part of the reason why Donald Trump has won. Because people will look at this kind of insanity on the left and go, well whatever the right is offering, it's got to be better. It at least doesn't come with this. Mar stated, the Supreme Court ruled the other day about transgender. Okay, there was an issue in Tennessee. Now the states can restrict minors from transitioning. They're just saying the states have the right to regulate this. Now I think a lot of people, again I'm critical when I think my side goes too far, they go too far often and they went too far on this for a long time, gender affirming, all this

Starting point is 01:43:09 gender dysphoria, all these terms they used to try just to say that biological sex isn't a real thing. It's all a social construct. This was always nonsense, that there isn't such a real thing as trans people. There are but it's rare and they made it un-rare. I think over 100 clinics opened in the last 10 or 20 years because this became a thing. That's right. We saw Once it became popular once it became the new in thing in the LGBT

Starting point is 01:43:34 It exploded they were everywhere Suddenly everyone had a trans kid. It seemed like oh well my eight-year-old son is trans my teenage Boy, my teenage boy, my teenage girl is trans, it exploded. You wouldn't see that if this was just a naturally occurring phenomenon. He continued, well now this, blue states by the way, will not be affected, they are just saying states have the right to regulate this, and I think it's a great first step getting the Democratic Party back to something that people can respect and normal people can vote for. We'll see. I think the Democrat Party has long since embraced their role on the lunatic fringe of the left and are only

Starting point is 01:44:15 going to move further left. Lawmakers Target New Jersey Homeschoolers is by Alex Newman of The New American. Under the guise of having the government provide oversight of homeschooling families, far-left Democrat lawmakers in New Jersey are working with powerful forces to crack down on home education. Parental rights and educational liberty, if the effort is not stopped, homeschoolers in the Garden State will soon have Big Brother watching them, literally. The most controversial legislation introduced this month requires homeschool families, both children and parents, to meet annually with a government bureaucrat.

Starting point is 01:44:49 It turns the presumption of innocence on its head with homeschoolers forced to prove to the government that everything is okay as part of a wellness check. I wonder what that might entail. A bill known as Senate Bill SB-4589 is short and to the point. A child in a home education program and the child's parents or guardian shall meet annually with a person from the resident school district who has been designated by the superintendent of the school district. The designated person shall be a school counselor, school nurse, or school social worker employed by the school district. The purpose of the meeting shall be for the parent or guardian to have an opportunity

Starting point is 01:45:26 to request support from the school district for the home education program, or the person designated by the superintendent to conduct a general health and wellness check of the child. What kind of support a homeschooling parent might be expected to request from the government is not made clear in the bill. But in the immortal words of President Ronald Reagan, the nine most terrifying words in the English language are, I'm from the government and I'm here to help. The other far more ominous purpose of the mandatory annual meeting is crystal

Starting point is 01:45:52 clear. In short, if the bill is passed, a government bureaucrat will be in charge of assessing whether parents are doing an acceptable job of parenting, caring for, and educating their homeschooled children. That's right, the government's going to come in and decide if they're up to standard if they're being given the appropriate education We know the type of things they actually care about when it comes to education It's not reading writing and arithmetic. So in other words, this is CPS mandated for all homeschooling from a wellness check from the people that want the genital

Starting point is 01:46:27 mutilation with no information for the parents. The criteria for determining what is acceptable of course will be in the hands of the very bureaucrats and policymakers who are knowingly and willingly sexualizing and indoctrinating indoctrinating children in public schools. These are the same bureaucrats teaching children to believe in absurdities like the idea they have been been born in the wrong body. Hormone therapy and surgical mutilation of genitals may be the solution. The bill currently has three Democrat co-sponsors, Senator John Bersicelli, Senator Paul Moriarty, and Senator Benji Wimberley. And I have did a little bit of research on Bersicelli, Moriarty, and Wimberley.

Starting point is 01:47:06 Burzicelli is very pro-abortion, introduced legislation for color-coding states based on access to abortion. So it'd be like a travel advisory if you leave New Jersey. You could look at it and go, oh what if I'm traveling and need on-the-spot abortion? I have to be careful where I travel. Sports New Jersey codifying absolute rights to abortion. Advocates allowing people to change gender on birth certificates and such. That's the first sponsor. So you can imagine what he might imagine a wellness check should entail.

Starting point is 01:47:39 Moriarty supported a 2021 bill requiring schools to include instruction on sexual orientation and gender identity starting in kindergarten. Mandating districts to teach lessons affirming LGBTQ relationships and identities. Now Wimberley, the third co-sponsor, also co-sponsored a bill which sought to face Forrest New Jersey commissioners of education to develop guidelines for accommodating trans students in public schools, restrooms, public schools, restroom access, name slash pronoun recognition, anti-discrimination protection. We know what they define as anti-discrimination protection

Starting point is 01:48:19 is worship. You will bow down and you will do whatever these people say. These are the people that are co-sponsoring this bill, so you know the type of things that they'll want to put in there. I'll make sure that your child is being taught that they can be a different, a different sex than they were born. That if you aren't respecting that, you're the problem. It's not that they're suffering from some kind of mental illness.

Starting point is 01:48:43 It's that you need to respect them. And if you don't, the government's going to come in and hammer you for it. Critics including the Homeschool Legal Defense Association, which represents hundreds of thousands of homeschooling families nationwide, are already fighting back. This bill can only encourage discrimination, prejudice, and suspicion towards parents merely because they exercise their constitutional right to homeschool their children. Warns Scott Woodruff, HSLDA Director of Legal and Legislative Advocacy. The details of the bill, he continued, are astonishingly problematic.

Starting point is 01:49:16 As well, for example, the legislation does not define what a general health and wellness check is. The government loves to leave these kinds of things vague. Leave it up to the petty bureaucrat that shows about your house's imagination. Whatever they feel like complaining about on that day. Perhaps you're not quite gender affirming enough. Perhaps they're not being taught enough LGBTQ propaganda. Perhaps they're not being told that they have an absolute right to abortion. Who knows? Could be any of those. Could be anything else. They love to leave these things vague. That means officials will essentially be able to do what they like, including question children without their parents present.

Starting point is 01:50:03 including question children without their parents present. How despicable and evil. S4589 is not merely an affront to homeschooling families, continued Woodruff, urging constituents of the senators to call and make their voices heard. It raises privacy concerns and undermines the fundamental principle of American jurisprudence, that individuals are presumed innocent unless there is proof they have committed a crime. Another controversial bill, SB 1796, was just featured in a June 5 hearing that drew hundreds

Starting point is 01:50:35 of homeschool parents in opposition, as well as an attorney for the HSLDA. If approved, it would require homeschool families to register with the government to provide information on the children. Without even basic privacy protections. Situation in New Jersey follows a very predictable formula being observed in multiple states. First, activists team up with far-left journalists to find an exceedingly rare case of a child not receiving an adequate education. Or worse, a parent's or guardian's abusing or neglecting a child while claiming to be homeschooling.

Starting point is 01:51:08 Once a suitable case is identified, the activist journalist highlights the case, paints it as normal or potentially even common, quotes the totalitarian activists demanding government control, and pesters legislators to comment on doing something with the media buzzed. Tyrannical lawmakers then have cover to introduce bills targeting homeschoolers. New Jersey's case, a major hit piece targeting home educators, recently appeared in the nearby Philadelphia Inquirer under the headline, New Jersey is deeply unregulated on homeschooling, leaving the system vulnerable to child abuse. Activist journalist Nate File expressed shock that the Garden State homeschooled children

Starting point is 01:51:47 under complete control of their parents. What a terrible thing. Children under the control of their parents? They should be under the control of the state, under the control of the schools that are going to tell them all these wonderful things about sexuality. They're gonna expose them to pornographic books in the

Starting point is 01:52:05 library. Isn't that wonderful? Isn't that what we should want? And I did some research on this journalist Nate File. He's nothing but another race grifter. That's where he mainly focuses. Social justice is his general wheelhouse, seems to be. Talking about racial equity and that sort of thing. So that's who we're working with. In the state of New Jersey, there's essentially no oversight for homeschooling families, the reporter marveled, as if government, rather than parents, were the presumed protector and guardian of children.

Starting point is 01:52:36 There are no required tests to demonstrate that the children are getting an adequate education, and there are no mandated check-ins on the child's well-being. Think of the children. Think of the children. They don't have a bureaucrat in their life. Everyone needs their own personal bureaucrat, don't you know? This hand ringing is disgusting. A key part of the story involves the case in which a New Jersey couple was charged with abusing and neglecting a teenage girl who was supposedly

Starting point is 01:53:05 being homeschooled. As typical, the article did not mention federal data showing that one out of ten students in government schools faces sexual misconduct by staff, including rape and sodomy. Illinois offered another very clear example of this after a far-list activist news outlet funded by billionaire globalist George Soros started banging the war drums against homeschool freedom. Lawmakers responded with legislation that could have made homeschooling parents into criminals for failure to file paperwork. Thankfully for homeschoolers the bill failed. For now. Got some comments?

Starting point is 01:53:43 mutilating genitals is another depopulation method. That's right If they can mutilate your genitals if they can get you to mutilate and butcher yourself Even if you decide later on oh, I was wrong. There's no going back. There's no undoing that there's no reset for that You simply have to live with it forever. If they simply propagandize you, there's a chance that you might go back. You might realize that this is an empty, evil, vile ideology that is leaving you depressed and broken. But once you have fully committed, once you have committed the right, the R-I-T-E of

Starting point is 01:54:30 body mutilation, you're forever locked out of that. Assyrian girl, parents are also tired from working all day, both, maybe both of them, like teachers who have worked all day to indoctrinate the kids in their energetic non-tired hours. That's right I think I ended up working it out at one point that seemingly It's about three hours that parents might have to actively spend with their kids But as a general rule, you know, you're not going to do that People are going to spend some time doing you know doing their own interests, whatever

Starting point is 01:55:07 So at best it seems like three to four hours would be the maximum a parent could spend with a child if they are Working full-time and the child is going to school three to four hours as opposed to these six hours Which are spent solely devoted to indoctrination. That's what it's all about. It's about indoctrinating your That's what it's all about. It's about indoctrinating your child. And unless you spend six hours un-indoctrinating them, chances are the school system is going to win. Audi MRR, we're supposed to believe that a bunch of demonic predators in government who literally practice child sacrifice care about children. I know it's a strange credulity doesn't it, Audi? It's very strange. They're very deeply interested in children but only in the sense they get to control them and feed them this insane

Starting point is 01:55:55 propaganda. One of the most vocal groups leading the charge claims it is merely calling for responsible homeschooling to be enforced by government but the organization owns the Coalition for Responsible Home Education believes that the government must regulate and oversee homeschooling for it to be considered responsible. That's right. Well, we just want responsible homeschooling and by that we mean we want the government to come in and watch everything that you do at all times. And right now New Jersey is one of the key states in the group's crosshairs. New Jersey is deeply unregulated compared to other states.

Starting point is 01:56:28 Said Jonah Stewart, the organization's interim executive director, in comments to the aforementioned activist media organization, which means that kids can in effect fall through the cracks. Won't you think of the children? Won't you think about them? Won't you put a bureaucrat in their life? For just the cost of your freedom, you can provide a child with a bureaucrat. isn't that lovely? isn't that what we want to do? the computer science bubble is bursting. this is an article from the Atlantic and it's talking about how

Starting point is 01:57:01 it's seemingly not such a good investment to get a computer science degree anymore. There was a time where you went in, you got your computer science degree, and all of a sudden, boy howdy, you were set. You had a career and there was nothing you had to worry about. You knew that if one company didn't pick you up, another one would. You could probably freely hop between them. You could say, i want to raise or i'm going over here and chances are you would get it assuming that you were actually halfway competent at your job but that's not the case anymore because ai is remarkably good at doing the jobs of these people that are building ai ai's use case seems to be most efficient when it comes to getting rid of these people who do entry level coding jobs.

Starting point is 01:57:52 Artificial intelligence is ideally suited to replacing the very type of person who built it. What a shame. The job of the future might already be past its prime. For years, young people seeking a lucrative career urged to go all in on computer science. From 2005 to 2023, the number of comp sci majors in the United States quadrupled, all of which makes the latest batch of numbers so startling. This year, enrollment grew by only 0.2%. And at many programs, it appears to be already in decline, according to interviews with professors

Starting point is 01:58:27 and department chairs at Stanford. Widely considered one of the country's top programs, the number of comp sci majors has stalled after years of blistering growth. Szymon Ruskiewicz, the chair of Princeton's computer science department, told me that if current trends hold, the cohort of graduating comp sci majors at Princeton is set to be 25% smaller in two years than it is today. The number of Duke students enrolled in introductory computer science courses has dropped about 20% over the past year. That's right, they see the end folks. The bottom has dropped out. It's not the path of the future. It's not a worthwhile investment. The AI is coming for the jobs. It's so counterintuitive, Molly Kinder, a

Starting point is 01:59:12 Brookings Institute fellow who studies AI. AI's effect on the economy told me this was supposed to be the job of the future. The way to stay ahead of technology was to go to college and get coding skills. But the days of learn to code might be coming to an end. If the numbers are any indication, we might have passed peak computer science. Chris Grappe, a doctoral student at the University of Tennessee at Knoxville, oh, right nearby,

Starting point is 01:59:36 has spent eight months searching for a job. He triple majored in computer science, math, and computational science at the Rose Holman Institute of Technology and has completed the coursework for a computer science, math, and computational science at the Rose-Holman Institute of Technology and has completed the coursework for a computer science Ph.D. He preferred a work instead of finishing his degree, but he has found it almost impossible secure a job. He knows of only two people who recently pulled it off.

Starting point is 01:59:58 One sent personalized cover letters for 40 different roles and set up meetings with people at the companies. The other submitted 600 applications. We're in an AI revolution. I'm a specialist in the kind of AI that we're doing the revolution with and I can't find anything, Grop told me. I found myself a month or two ago considering, do I just take a break from this thing that I've been training for for most of my life and become an apprentice electrician? Sounds like a good plan to me, bud. Seems like it's only gonna get worse. Doesn't seem as though it's going to end up getting any better. This is just the beginning of the revolution. This is just the birth pains. The contractions, if you will. And things are going to get more severe

Starting point is 02:00:46 that's the unfortunate truth Of course even and A direct degree in when it comes to a trade school or anything like that Can be outmoded eventually? So that is no guarantee of employment but it's at least a start. It's something that is more difficult for AI and these robots to take over. But the main thing you want to focus on when you're looking for education is character and critical thinking. If you can train your child to

Starting point is 02:01:23 have critical thinking skills it's more valuable than getting them to memorize a series of facts. And if you can train them to have a good character that is far more valuable than anything else. A... a moral person with critical thinking ability is Is that something you should be proud of All right, well We're going to take a quick break.

Let's talk about the mass shooting that wasn't. You are your own first responder. Michigan Church security guard details confronting the gunman.

Starting point is 02:14:41 Jay Trombley said he had long wondered about facing an active shooter, questioning whether he would run to the confrontation or run away from it. On Sunday morning at Crosspoint Community Church in Wayne, Michigan, he got his answer. It was muscle memory to go take care of the threat to protect the family, Trombley told ABC News Detroit affiliate WXYZ. On Sunday morning, the gunman identified as 31 year old Brian Browning exited his Nissan truck wearing a tactical vest armed with a long gun and a handgun when he approached the church building and began firing. Several staff members from the church approached the gunman. At least two staff members shot

Starting point is 02:15:18 the gunman causing fatal wounds police said after the attack. We are grateful for the heroic actions of the Church's staff members, who undoubtedly saved many lives and prevented a large-scale mass shooting," Wayne Police Chief Ryan Strong said during a press conference Sunday. Trombly, a member of the Church's security team with no military or police experience, helped prevent what Wayne Police Chief Ryan Strong said could have been a large scale mass shooting. Inside the church, worshippers first heard what sounded like a jackhammer, turned out to be 10 shots fired by the suspect. Word that everybody kind of paused in the church

Starting point is 02:15:57 for a moment witnessed Dustin Fiocco, told WXYZ, describing how moments of confusion quickly turned to chaos. The incident could have been catastrophic if not for a series of events that Pastor Bob Kelly Jr. calls divine providence. A church member running late to service spotted Browning and struck him with his pickup truck, slowing the gunman's advance. That's why and promptly entered the scene and shot Browning, killing him. So don't ever, if I show up late to church and you see me, don't make a big deal out of it. I'm just trying to prevent another, you know, I'm on the case.

Starting point is 02:16:31 I'm out here trying to protect against a late coming mass shooter. What if you need me to ram them? It's simply me doing my part. Church massacre canceled shooter run over by deac's truck then fatally shot by staff. There was a great comment that said, the Ford works in mysterious ways. It sure does. What promised to be a ghastly church massacre in Michigan on Sunday was prevented by the speedy reactions of a church deacon and two staff members.

Starting point is 02:17:00 Put the pedal to the metal with the deacon unleashing the first blow with his truck before security guard and another staff member polished off the assailant with gunfire That's a That's a rough final few moments. You get absolutely uh trucked Then just get lit up the drama played out at cross point community church in wane, michigan a western detroit suburb police identified the dead shooter As brian anthony browning a 31 year old white male with no known connection to the church. There's another article I have somewhere in this stack where they later do detail that he had some connection. I believe his mom had gone to that church and he had

Starting point is 02:17:36 attended there multiple times. Not many, between two and three if memory serves. From the other article, Browning arrived at the church in Nice on a Nissan truck shortly after 11 a.m. as a special vacation Bible school service was underway teaming with children and 150 congregants in all. Police say he was wearing a tactical vest and carrying both a handgun and a long gun, a pointlessly vague police term that could describe either a rifle or shotgun. After gaining the attention of staff members by driving recklessly outside the building, Browning exited his vehicle and opened fire on the church. That's when he was met with a swift and decisive one-two punch. When a Deacon saw the shooter moving toward the church,

Starting point is 02:18:13 he immediately turned his Ford F-150 pickup truck into a two-ton weapon, hitting the gas and running Browning over as the fiend fired multiple rounds at him. The Ford works in mysterious ways, observed Zero-Heads reader Raddus in an instant classic comment. That bought time for staff members to engage him with gunfire. At least two staff members shot the gun when causing fatal wounds said Wayne Police Chief Ryan Strong. One staffer suffered a gunshot wound to the leg. I believe later it was corrected that he suffered two gunshot wounds, was shot twice in the leg, but he is still doing fine. But is expected to fully recover after under growing surgery.

Starting point is 02:18:50 Though Browning was stopped quite close to the church, several of the rounds he fired entered it. Livestream video of the service captured the congregation's multi-stage reaction to the attack. Which proceeded from distraction to confusion and then fearful retreat. One of the leaders of the service beckoning everyone to move to the back of the building For those of you who participated Thank you so much got the footage here There was a lot of energy to chorale in every day and our songs helped do that and so did our games But that doesn't mean that we didn't have That doesn't mean we didn't have time for

Starting point is 02:19:25 Bible here. We're skipping forward here just so you can see. People are beginning to run. It is also amazing how slow some people move. Like you can see some people still don't understand what's going on. Some people are still just like, huh, interesting. Not everyone has a top-tier survival instinct. That's why you need people like these deacons and these men on security detail. Because some people are just kind. They're nice, they're friendly, they're wonderful, they're intelligent, but they don't have that survival instinct. They're not going to be able to protect themselves effectively. That's why certain people are better suited towards it. Churchgoer Doug Blair told Fox to Detroit that he first mistook the sound of gunfire for construction noises after hearing someone announce an active shooter. He ran to a door, propped it open and carefully took a look outside.

Starting point is 02:20:36 There was the shooter on the ground. It's open, I think. He was still firing away. It was all on the ground. Right before I got to the door, you could hear it was going, bam, bam, bam. That's all you heard. When I opened the door, one of the security people was in front of him, and was all on the ground. Right before I got to the door you could hear it was going bam bam bam. That's all you heard. When I opened the door one of the security people was in front of him and one was on the other side of him. They were just both emptying their clips. That's right. You don't stop shooting until the bad guy stops moving. Gotta make sure. Good for a... very happy to hear that, you know, the only person that seemed to be hit was one of the security team. I'm not happy that he was hit, but I'm glad that it wasn't serious, that he's going to be fine, that they were able to protect the church. Chief Strong praised the swift and effective response. It was very effective. Hit him with a truck and then just emptied the mags into him

Starting point is 02:21:25 while he was crippled on the ground. For the quick actions of the church staff members who undoubtedly saved many lives and rented a large-scale mass shooting. He said, I would add that the church parishioners and staff members were trained in responding to emergency situations, which also saved lives. That's right, I'm sure these men had practiced and drilled and prepared for this kind of scenario. They wanted to make sure that if it did happen, they would be ready. Pastor and police say Browning did not appear to have ever been a member of the church,

Starting point is 02:21:53 was located about five miles away from this home in Romulus, Michigan. There's no word yet about a motive. It appears he was suffering from a mental health crisis.

That's what we need to do.

Starting point is 02:22:53 If you are a member of a church, it's a good time to start thinking about this kind of thing. We are in strange and uncertain times. It is, it is important to know that you can protect yourself or help protect others. Got a comment here from real Jason Barker and a tip that is very generous. Thank you, Jason.

This is that article I was talking about where more info had apparently come out and Police in Michigan have identified the suspect gunman in a church shooting Sunday in which one person was wounded before the gunman was killed by a church security officer.

Starting point is 02:24:39 The state's Wayne County Police Department has identified the suspect as 31 yearyear-old Brian Anthony Browning from Romulus, Michigan, whose mother was a member of the congregation, according to NBC News. So it's coming from NBC News. So take it with a grain of salt. This may come out to be incorrect later. The department also said the shooter attended services at the church two or three times over the course of the last year.

Starting point is 02:25:09 Browning was allegedly armed with an AR-15 style assault rifle that was equipped with more than a dozen magazines of ammunition, a semi-automatic handgun with an extended magazine, and hundreds of rounds of ammunition. He allegedly opened fire outside of the Crosspoint Community Church and shot one security officer in the leg twice before he was killed by another security officer. The injured officer is in stable condition after surgery. We're gonna move along from that incident. We've got an article here. At least two attacks on Christians are logged each day in India. This is from a watchdog organization. Before we move on I have a comment from Dad. He asked, was the Ford fully automatic? Exactly. A fully automatic assault Ford with a high capacity gas tank. It was dangerous. No civilian should have that kind

Starting point is 02:26:03 of firepower. At least two attacks on Christians are logged each day in India. Says a watchdog. This is by Anugra Kumar, Christian Post contributor. At least two attacks on Christians are being reported every day in India this year, according to new figures released by a Christian advocacy group. A total of 313 incidents were recorded between January and May alone. Based on calls to a toll-free helpline run by the New Delhi-based Interdenominational Body United Christian Forum, according to the Union of Catholic Asian News, pattern of violence has intensified steadily over the past decade UCF data shows the organization logged 834 incidents of attacks

Starting point is 02:26:46 on Christians in 2024 up from 734 in 2023 and 601 in 2022. So it is a steadily rising number of attacks. This isn't just a one-off happenstance where oh it's gone up this year, but it's been fairly stable the other years. It is continually going up since 2022. AC Michael's UCF national convener and member of the Delhi Minorities Commission told the UCA News the incidents include viral hate, brutal mob violence, and rampant social ostracization, pointing to Utah Pradesh and Chattagarh as the most severely affected states. In 2024 Uttar Pradesh reported 209 incidents by IS in the country followed by 165 in Chattagarh by the end of May. Tatishgarh had already recorded 64 cases of violence against Christians with

Starting point is 02:27:42 Uttar Pradesh close behind at 58. Christian activist Manaski Singh, based in Uttar Pradesh, was quoted as saying that a large number of these attacks are driven by accusations of forced conversions. Singh rejected the claim, calling them baseless. That's right, we know that in Christianity, as a general rule, most denominations, even those that have some very other wacky beliefs, understand that a forced conversion is worthless. It is not simply about getting them to recite some words. They have to believe it. Forcing someone to convert to Christianity doesn't do anything for them. They have to truly believe the words. They have to truly believe that Jesus Christ is their Savior.

Starting point is 02:28:29 They have to confess and repent of their sins. That's what matters. Getting them to say a ritual mantra has no meaning at all. Singh rejected the claims, calling them baseless. In 2022, the Supreme Court of India asked for reports on forceful conversions from the federal and state governments, but still, but till today, no government has been able to provide documentary evidence, Singh said. Twelve of India's 28 states have laws that restrict religious conversions. Most of these are governed by the Hindu Nationalists BJP, which Christian groups accuse of enabling Hindu

Starting point is 02:29:05 nationalist, attacks under the guise of anti-Christian, anti-conversion enforcement. Christian leaders argue that these laws are often misused by Hindu nationalist groups to harass and intimidate Christian communities. This trend has not stopped immediately. It will threaten the identity and existence of the Indian Christian community in its motherland," said Michael. He alleged that the legal and judicial systems are failing to protect Christian minorities and said many victims avoid reporting assaults out of fear of reprisal. The UCF maintains a log of complaints received through its helpline and contact network,

Starting point is 02:29:39 recording a steady year-on-year increase in incidents since 2014. The year the BJB came to power was 127 cases that year. In December, Michael called on the Indian government to appoint a secretary-level official to lead the investigation to a sharp uptick in incidents of persecution. Christians constitute 2.3% of India's population. Based on the 2011 census, the UCF says the Christian minority has been facing growing hostility in recent years, particularly under laws and narratives advanced by Hindu nationalist groups. In Chhattisgarh, the Christians were arrested in March after dozens of hardline Hindus attacked a church. In

Starting point is 02:30:16 Raipur, and cut the electrical power. Rajesh Sharma, one of the Christians arrested, told Morningstar News his plea for anticipatory bail was rejected in the state lower and high courts. We've seen that the Indian government is very hostile towards Christianity. They have no interest in protecting the Christian minority in India. Knights of the Storm, if it was a four lightning days the same time, then catch fire. That's right. The electric vehicle is the optimal weapon against these people. First you electrocute them, then it combusts, killing them instantaneously. You may die as well. You'll just have to be very cognizant of when to bail out of that thing.

Starting point is 02:31:01 High Boost. Wasn't a Ford F-150 used in New Orleans? Hmm. That's right. We're putting the pieces together. We're drawing correlations. We've got the big board. We're putting little, you know, tacks in it. We're connecting the red string. It all makes sense. The Ford F-150. It's truly diabolical. ISIS killed at least 25 in Syrian church attack, injured dozens, says the Syrian government. Following a preliminary investigation, the Syrian government says the Islamic State is responsible for a suicide bombing at a Greek Orthodox church in Damascus that killed at least 25 people and injured dozens of others on Sunday. The blast occurred Sunday morning during a prayer service at the Mar Elias Church in

Starting point is 02:31:47 the El-Douayla district of the Syrian capital, UPI reported, saying the assailant entered the building, opened fire on the congregation, and then detonated an explosive vest. Security forces sealed off the area, allowing bomb disposal and forensic teams to begin investigating the scene. Graphic images shared by the Greek Orthodox Patriarchate of Antioch showed bloodied floors and scattered remains inside the church. The initial casualty toll released by Syria's Ministry of Health reported nine dead and 13 injured. By Monday morning, the figures had risen to at least 25 dead and 59 wounded.

Starting point is 02:32:34 survivors at local hospitals. Interior Minister Anas Qatab condemned the attack on social media and vowed that terrorist acts will not deter the Syrian state's efforts to achieve civil peace. A suicide bomber affiliated with the terrorist organization ISIS entered St. Elias Church in the Douayla neighborhood of Damascus, opened fire and then detonated an explosive vest, a statement from Qatar reads. The Greek Orthodox Patriarchate of Antioch released a statement following the bombing saying, The Greek Orthodox Patriarchate of Antioch released a statement following the bombing, saying, The arrow of lawlessness was unleashed and struck our souls in the night.

Starting point is 02:33:10 Called for prayers for the dead and support for the wounded. Ono Group immediately claimed responsibility. Interior Ministry spokesman Nouraddin al-Baba said the Islamic State was suspected based on preliminary findings. Security of places of worship is a red line, Al-Baba said, adding that such attacks were attempts to destabilize Syria and undermine national coexistence, according to Fox News. The country's foreign ministry called the attack a desperate attempt to create discord during Syria's fragile transitional period.

Starting point is 02:33:40 We have seen that violence against Christians has risen quite significantly since Assad lost power. This is once again another victim of US and Israeli foreign policy. The number of sanctions and the way we have treated Syria over the years and the way that Israel has once again carried on against them has led to this. This is once again something you can lay at our feet and Israel's feet. This level of violence and hatred was being kept in check largely when Assad was in power. Next article still about the suicide bombing.

Starting point is 02:34:29 Suicide bomber detonates explosive vests, kills more than 20 in Christian Church in Damascus. At least 20 people were killed and dozens injured when a suicide bomber blew himself up with the Mar Aliyah's church in Syria's capital Damascus. You can see some of the devastation in that photo right there. It is truly heartbreaking. So please, please keep these people in your prayers. Keep the families in your prayers. Truly sad and horrifying to see. Keep the families of those in Damascus and Syria in general. It seems the issues that the United States foreign policy causes for Christians around the globe are once again rearing their head. I don't remember the exact numbers, but in Iraq and Afghanistan, pre and post

Starting point is 02:35:46 war, they dropped dramatically. They had had enough of American foreign policy and what they perceived as the Christians who were sort of indicative of it. They got sick of them and tried to root them out and they killed many, many of them. It is truly sad to see that once again American foreign policy is accomplishing this and causing or at least empowering these people to engage in this kind of behavior and resulting in more deaths. We are going to take a quick break. When we come back we'll look more at what's going on with Iran. Probably continue there until we finish out the show. Stay with Iran. Probably continue there until we finish out the show. Stay with us. Oh I'm sorry. Analyzing the globalist's next move.

Starting point is 02:37:55 And now, The David Nutshell. The You're listening to the David Knight show. Welcome back folks. Thank you for staying with us. Hope you're having a wonderful morning we're almost out of time here we've got about 20 minutes left and as I said we're gonna continue to look at what's going on with the Middle East and Iran Medvedev Medvedev this is from Zero Hedgeman Medvedev reacts number of countries now ready to supply Iran with their own nuclear warheads on Sunday

Starting point is 02:39:24 morning Russia's former president and current deputy chairman of the country's Security Council, Dmitry Medvedev, issued his reaction to the major US overnight strike on Iran's nuclear facilities, giving what's essentially the view of where things stand from the Kremlin. Now, I'm assuming this Dmitry is not any relation to our dog. Medvedev, in a ten point list of reactions, characterized the attacks as ultimately ineffective, in that it will blow back on America and Israel in a way opposite than intended, especially as Tehran will now only push harder for a nuke, and allied countries might now simply

Starting point is 02:40:02 be willing to supply them to the Iranians," he described. Interestingly, Medvedev also echoed Moscow's stance on nuclear warheads in the Middle East. It was written over the weekend on his Vy-Kontakte page, does Iran have nuclear weapons? We don't know, but we know that Israel has a secret nuclear program. Let them both pronounce such programs under the supervision of the UN Security Council and IAEA. As for the 10-point critique of the brazen US heavy bombing of the Islamic Republic, Medvedev wrote on X as follows.

Starting point is 02:40:34 What have the Americans accomplished with their nighttime strikes on three nuclear sites in Iran? One critical infrastructure of nuclear fuel cycle appears to have been unaffected or sustained only minor damage. The enrichment and two, the enrichment of nuclear material and now we can say it outright the future production nuclear weapons will continue. Three, a number of countries are ready to directly supply Iran with their own nuclear warheads. That's right, people are seeing it like, oh man, the only way this is going to stop, the

Starting point is 02:41:08 only way Israel and America can be deterred is with the threat of mutually assured destruction, with the threat of nuclear retaliation. So maybe if we give them that, it'll get them to relax and calm down. Number four, Israel is under attack explosions are rocking the country and people are panicking It is Again We saw it directly after they attacked Iran. They immediately issued a warning saying you have to Be wary. We've just struck Iran and they may retaliate and they made it sound so

Starting point is 02:41:53 Insidious on Iran's part that they might dare to strike back at the country that had attacked them first. That they might dare to strike back. And it was truly shocking to see the level of just manipulation, even in that. Just, oh, be wary our citizens. The evil that is Iran may strike back at us. After we launched many bombings and killed many people. But that's not the key point. It's just you now have to worry, citizens. You now have to worry.

Starting point is 02:42:21 Be afraid of Iran. Number five. Going back to point three, it's a number of countries are ready to directly supply Iran. I feel like the American attacks are only going to make that worse because America already has a lot of enemies and so does Israel and people can see giving weapons to Iran as a sort of proxy to attack America. Yeah. You're gonna use them, right? Please? You would do that for us. We'll give them to you. Iran's number six, or number five. The US is now entangled in a new conflict with prospects of a ground operation looming on the horizon. Number six. Iran's political regime has survived and in all likelihood has come out even stronger.

Starting point is 02:43:09 It has accomplished nothing when it comes to removing the so-called theocratic ruler, the one that we are supposed to fear and holding contempt as someone who hates us. But he's probably doing alright. In fact, the fact that America has reached out and launched strikes and Israel has done that as well probably leaves him in a stronger position and in fact makes it easier for him to go, see I told you, told you about those guys, they're bad news. Number seven, the people are rallying around the country's spiritual leadership including those who were previously indifferent or opposed to it.

Starting point is 02:43:47 We've seen that in the other wars, Iraq and Afghanistan. It makes people more hardline. It creates a lot of very extremists. It creates a lot of extremists in the Muslim religion. They see this happening and they go, well, they've been warning me about this. They've been telling me about this. Obviously, I must join whichever group opposes them. And they get more radicalized.

Starting point is 02:44:16 Number eight, Donald Trump once hailed as president of peace has now pushed the US into another war. That's right, good old peaceful Don has dragged us kicking and screaming back to the Middle East, back to our beautiful battleground that we just can't get enough of. The vast majority of countries around the world oppose the actions of Israel in the United States. This is number nine. It's true. Most people around the world can look at this and go, this isn't right. Israel has been playing the victim for years and it's getting old.

Starting point is 02:44:50 Number 10, at this rate Trump can forget about the Nobel Peace Prize, not even with how rigged it has become. That's just a direct jab at Donald Trump right there. You know he's got to be seething in the White House. Where's my peace prize? Where is it? Gosh darn it. I only launched a small precision strike. It wasn't that big of a deal. Medvedev actually finishing his point number 10 with a sarcastic dig at the US leader writing, what a way to kick things off Mr. President. Congratulations. It certainly complicates things in terms of Russia's military operation in Ukraine. Moscow has long received its major supply of Shahed kamikaze drones from Iran and

Starting point is 02:45:24 its ongoing defense contracts and agreements including possibly to receive mid-range missiles. Washington is flexing in Moscow's direction with this major long-range B-2 bomber military operation on the other side of the world. We're always posturing back and forth. Always back and forth. Iran reporter finds Trump strikes a nothing burger. Only smoke from Fordow Air Defense, not nuclear site. Zero significant emergency activity. Was Trump's spectacular bombing just for show? However, Washington is clearly targeting Iran as part of a new axis, which some US defense officials have previously described as consisting of Russia, Iran, and North Korea.

Starting point is 02:46:09 But to some degree, Trump likely went full bombs away on Iran because it's the weaker country among the three. And such an attack was easy, whereas it would be impossible to attack Russia or North Korea without triggering potential nuclear war. And it's assuming you believe North Korea has nuclear weapons. Real national emergency, endless wars, failing infrastructure, and a dying republic. This is from Zero Hedge. This is authored by John Whitehead and Nisha Whitehead via the Rutherford Institute. I assume it's Nisha Whitehead. It's a Nisha White-Ged here, but that doesn't make

Starting point is 02:46:45 much sense. Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies in the final sense a theft from those who hunger and are not fed. Those who are cold and are not clothed. President Dwight D. Eisenhower, April 16th, 1953. 70 years after President Dwight D. Eisenhower warned about the cost of a military industrial complex, America is still stealing from its own people to fund a global empire. In 2025 alone, the U.S. has launched airstrikes in Yemen, Operation Rough Rider, bomb-toothed controlled ports and radar installations, killing scores of civilians, deployed greater numbers of troops and multiple aircraft carriers to the Middle East, and edged closer to direct war with Iran in support of Israel's escalating conflict.

Starting point is 02:47:30 Each of these new fronts has been sold to the public as national defense. In truth, they are the latest outposts in a decade-long campaign of empire maintenance, one that lines the pockets of defense contractors while schools crumble, bridges collapse, and veterans sleep on the streets at home. This isn't about national defense. This is empire maintenance. It's about preserving a military industrial complex that profits from endless war, global policing, and foreign occupations while the nation's infrastructure rots and its people are neglected. You often hear this from a

Starting point is 02:48:04 somewhat leftist perspective of, oh well that money that we spent on the bombs could have been spent on the schools, but really, why take the money from the people in the first place? The money that you spent on the bombs could have been not stolen from the people that earned it. That is the real thing that's going to affect the economy in deep ways which could prevent people from being hungry and unclothed in the first place. Yes, it could have been left with the people, as Lance said, who earned the money so that they had the ability to either save it

Starting point is 02:48:39 or to spend it on things, to put it back into the economy, to maybe start a business with it. It's about preserving military industrial complex that profits from endless war, global policing, and foreign occupations. The United States has spent much of the past half century policing the globe, occupying other countries, and waging endless wars. Most Americans fail to recognize that these ongoing wars have little to do with keeping the country safe and everything to do with propping up a military industrial complex that has its

Starting point is 02:49:07 sights set on world domination. War has become a huge money making venture in the US government, with its vast military empire as one of its best buyers and sellers. America's role in the Russia-Ukraine conflict has already cost taxpayers more than $112 billion and now the price of empire is rising again. Clearly it's time for the US government to stop policing. The globe, the US military reportedly has more than 1.3 million men and women on active duty with more than 200,000 of them stationed overseas in nearly every country in the world.

Starting point is 02:49:40 American troops are stationed in Somalia, Iraq, and Syria, in Germany, South Korea, and Japan, in Saudi Arabia, Jordan, and Oman, in Niger, Chad, and Mali, in Turkey, the Philippines, and Northern Australia. These numbers are likely significantly higher in keeping with the Pentagon's policy of not fully disclosing where and how many troops are deployed for the sake of operational security and denying the enemy any advantage. As investigative journalist David Vine explains, although few Americans realize it, the United States likely has more bases in foreign lands than any other people, nation, or empire in history. It is this vast sprawling mass of tentacles that stretch across the globe. We have created a monster. The American government has its tentacles latched onto every country in the world.

Starting point is 02:50:32 We are a swaggering, bullying foreign power to these people. We routinely tell people how it's going to be, because they simply can't resist us. They cannot say no. They know what will happen if they do. At minimum, it'll be sanctions. We will use our economic might to destroy them. And that's the best case scenario. If it continues, who knows? Maybe you'll get a visit and a strike from good old Donnie as well. Nights of the Storm. The more this goes on, the more it seems like they are setting up a trigger event. Seems like it's planned out to get to an eventual goal. Yeah. They're probably planning some kind of false flag we've routinely seen. People floating the idea that Iran wants to assassinate Donald

Starting point is 02:51:17 Trump. That, oh, he's... they want to get rid of him. They want to kill Donald Trump. You have to remember it's the Iranians. They are want to get rid of him. They want to kill Donald Trump. You have to remember it's the Iranians They are desperate to get rid of him. It started a while ago. It was at least last year though it may have been even in his first term That they were saying it it be drew 2029 marks America's wagging the dog in the Middle East That is a Yeah, it is a wag the dog scenario. Well, we've got about nine minutes left.

Starting point is 02:51:48 We'll take a quick break, and we will be right back. Stay with us, folks. Don't go anywhere. The The The You're listening to The David Knight Show. Using free speech to free minds. It's the David Knight Show. Wait a minute. Where am I? Sorry, Jefferson. The scoundrels who put America on central bank fiat currency used our heads on their coins as some sort of trophy. Despicable. This is outrageous. Washington! I spent my life fighting centralized power. Now the Federal

Starting point is 02:54:12 Reserve monopoly parades us around on their monopoly money. Tell me there's some good news to all this. Well there is a coin they can't control. One that isn't backed by the Fed. But backed by the FedUp, the all-new David Night Show commemorative coin. Now patriots can support a show that won't sell out, with a limited edition coin that's sure to sell out quickly. They say money talks, and this coin has something worth listening to. The truth doesn't need inflation, only support.

Starting point is 02:54:53 Well welcome back folks. We've got about five minutes left here. I want to make sure that I cover the story briefly. The Proud Boys are the latest Maga cultist to break up with Trump. That's right, there's some buyer's remorse there. This is from Boing Boing by Shamus Bellamy. Proud boys are beginning to understand that, oh, wait a minute. He's not who he said he was. The real question is, how do they not know sooner? How were they taken for a ride for this long after what happened with COVID? The scam, the lockdown, the obviousness of it all, how has it taken this long for them to catch on to the grift? It's truly amazing.

Starting point is 02:55:31 Donald Trump campaigned on anti-immigration rhetoric and keeping America out of foreign conflicts but has veered sharply from his isolationist promises during his second term. Isolationist promises. Okay, Seamus. During his second term, after a failed attempt to mediate between Israel and Palestine during the ongoing humanitarian crisis, the former reality TV star's latest international move was even more dramatic, ordering strikes on three Iranian nuclear facilities last weekend. I

Starting point is 02:55:59 suppose when the evidence is literally a bomb shell, it's hard to ignore it, right? When it's, you know, Anthony Fauci being given all the power in the world to do whatever he wants, when it's people being locked up in their houses and put on ventilators in hospitals under slow kill orders, I guess it's a bit easier to look away and pretend you don't see it, pretend you don't really understand, pretend that it's not Trump's fault when it's literally a bombshell. Perhaps that's what makes the difference. You're not able to pretend anymore.

Starting point is 02:56:34 Not able to go, oh well, you know, it wasn't really his doing. No, he's the one that ordered it directly. So look at 1980 and Trump bombed Syria in his first term based on lies. What a wonderful peace president we have here, isn't it folks? Isn't he just absolutely wonderful? Peaceful Donny is what they call him. While he technically didn't declare war, only Congress has that power. Launching unauthorized bombing runs in foreign airspace remains an impeachable offense. bombing runs in foreign airspace remains an impeachable offense. This is what they should have tried to impeach him for. This is what they should have looked at and said, you need to go. But since they already tried that over nonsense, he's inoculated against it.

Starting point is 02:57:18 Everyone seems to be pissed off with Donnie right now. Lawmakers from both sides are demanding accountability. Even his staunchest supporters, the ones who helped him undermine American democratic principles, are distancing themselves after the bombing. When the president posted a celebratory message on True Social, the response in the Proud Boys public telegram channel was notably hostile. If United States gets directly involved in the Israel-Iran conflict, the voters that voted for Trump because there was a hope that Trump was America First can

Starting point is 02:57:47 longer support Trump. That was a sentence. America First does not mean war for Israel. Donald Trump focus on the health of our nation. Period. We are crumbling. We are crippled with debt, with no plan for a solution. Be the president you ran as. The Proud Boys are starting to realize there's some buyer's remorse. They're realizing, wait a minute, he was always a scorpion. Gosh darn it, how did I not notice the stinger, the claws? But that's what he always was and it was obvious to anyone that was paying the slightest bit of attention. Oh man,

Starting point is 02:58:22 but you love to see it. How much lower his approval rating can go, even amongst his formerly star-world turd rec supporters is anybody's guess. Well I'm sure, while they're right on this case that the Proud Boys are having Byers remorse, and they should be because Trump is not the man he said he was, I'm sure Seamus Bellamy is an insufferable dork that I would absolutely despise and refuse to hang out with. He's right on this, though. He's absolutely right.

Starting point is 02:58:50 So gotta give you, uh, I suppose I must congratulate you on that Seamus. You are right. The Proud Boys have buyer's remorse. Trump is not a peaceful president. He is a despicable warmonger just like all the others. And that's how it goes here in the United States they lie they get into power and Go back to business as usual. Well, we've got about 45 seconds left here in today's show

Starting point is 02:59:16 I want to thank you all for tuning in and spending the time with us here. I really do appreciate it I will be back tomorrow and We will continue to cover what's going on in the Middle East. There's more news from the Middle East than one man could possibly cover if he did it all day long. So, no shortage there. Again, thank you all for your support. We ask that you continue to pray for our dad. Pray for his healing, that his speech would be returned to him fully. Thank you all again so much. We really do appreciate it. our dad pray for his healing that his speech would be returned to him fully.

Starting point is 02:59:49 Thank you all again so much. We really do appreciate it. It has been wonderful to be here with you and I will see you all tomorrow. Same time, same channel. Have a good rest of your day. The Common Man. They created Common Core to dumb down our children. They created Common Pass to track and control us. Their commons project to make sure the commoners own nothing and the communist future. They see the common man as simple, unsophisticated, ordinary. But each of us has worth and dignity created in the image of God. That is what we have in common. That is what they want to take away.

Starting point is 03:00:44 Their most powerful weapons are isolation, deception, intimidation. They desire to know everything about us while they hide everything from us. It's time to turn that around and expose what they want to hide. Please share the information and links you'll find at TheDavidNightShow.com. Thank you for listening. Thank you for sharing.
