Great to have you along for the ride. Thanks a lot for stopping by.

I'm glad to have this man on his name is Robert Greenway. He is the director at Allison's Center for National Security at Heritage and also former deputy assistant to the president, former NSC director.

Senior director, listen, how many titles do you have to have, my friend?

I mean, it's great.

You're great, but this is all really an incredible resume.

The bottom line is this, and thanks for coming on.

We want to know what the heck is going on in the Middle East because I don't believe the American public is being properly informed.

Do you agree?

100% and it can be a complicated issue. If you don't follow it every day and you're dependent upon

external you know sources of information you might you know you might miss a couple of things

does it also really mess things up that were in a an election year for a general election here's what I mean

you've got one side the Harris Wall's campaign that wants to travel the fence

yeah we love Israel yeah we don't think Palestinians should be killed.

They're trying to get the votes from both sides, which is going to be very difficult.

Whereas you got the other side, Trump says, I just want to be ready to stop dying,

and I'll bring peace to the region immediately.

Which tactic do you think is likely to resonate with the American public who I think is confused about what's going on,

specifically in Gaza and with Israel?

Yeah, well, so you're exactly right.

In an election cycle, if you're going to attempt to do policy by polling, which is what we're seeing from the Biden Harris administration, to the extent that anyone's in charge, it's hard to tell, then obviously it's going to complicate the situation.

But you're right, I think people remember that four years ago things were not nearly

this bad, not just in the Middle East elsewhere, and I think that's the, that's going to resonate among voters and I think people are going to be more responsive to President Trump who did not bring us to the brink of war.
