| 0:00.0 | They don't really care how many people die. |
| 0:01.8 | I mean, you saw it happen in January. The people go out on the streets. All they want is gasoline. All they want is food. All they want is humanitarian assistance. And the leaders of the country just go out and kill them, right? Killed 35, 40,000 people just gun them down. Now imagine for one moment that they wouldn't do the same thing to us if they had the opportunity. |
| 0:21.1 | They do the same thing to the UAE. They do the same thing to Saudi Arabia if they could because |
| 0:24.6 | they're enemies as well, but we're the biggest enemy and why? |
| 0:27.6 | Because there is a battle within Islam, a much broader battle now, between those who want to accommodate the West |
| 0:33.6 | and those who want to continue to dominate the West, to defeat the West. |
| 0:36.6 | Those who opposed accommodation, led by Iran, said the first thing we've got to do |
| 0:42.3 | to break down this move of the other branch of Islam, the other side of Islam, towards the |
| 0:48.3 | West, towards this accommodationist attitude, is to destroy Israel. |
| 0:51.3 | If we destroy Israel, we'll have an opportunity to destroy the West. |
| 0:56.4 | This week we spoke to possibly the best person in the world to discuss Iran, America's relationship |
| 1:01.4 | with Israel, and the growth of anti-Semitism, and the future of Jews. I traveled all the way |
| 1:06.3 | to Washington, D.C., to interview the ambassador of Israel, and it was inside the Israel Embassy, |
| 1:10.7 | and, man, I am glad that I went there. This episode is in the ambassador of Israel, and it was inside the Israel embassy, and, |
| 1:10.9 | man, I am glad that I went there. This episode is in loving memory of Shimon Dauvet bin Yaakov Shlama, Miriam Sarabas, Yaakov, Mosha, and of course, Mosheedya, Ben Yachil. And a big thank you to this week's sponsors, Wheels to Lees, Beldeheim, BF Design, and Extreme Vent Cleaning. If you haven't yet subscribed, please do. Some of our best work is coming very soon. And we talk about a lot in this interview, the rise of anti-semitism, Tucker Carlson's hate, Israel's plan, and the things you don't actually know about America and Israel. So stick around to the very end. Here we go. Okay, Ambassador, thank you so much for taking the time to do this. this I do want to say before I was thinking, like, maybe we should do this like a remote kind of interview. And I just have the feeling like, okay, I should come here and do it in person and discovering that we're doing this in Sarah Milgram's office, Sarah Milgram Malavashalam. And it just, it's a reminder to me, like, how important it is to be here. |
| 2:01.6 | And I appreciate you for the time. |
| 2:02.6 | You're Sarah and Jaron. |
| 2:04.6 | This is a studio that we've dedicated in their memory. |
| 2:08.6 | They were two young employees of the embassy, two young diplomats, who were shot dead, just a few blocks away from the White House, |
| 2:16.6 | by someone who got on a plane in |
| 2:18.8 | Chicago with a gun. And while he was screaming, free, free Palestine, and from the river to the sea, |
| 2:24.5 | Palestine will be free, shot these two Israeli diplomats. Sarah was from Kansas. And she was like Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz. |
