Venezuela. They're in cahoots with the Maduro regime, you know, they're exporting terrorism

0:05.2

to America, to the American hemisphere. And then they want these, Chisbalah and Hamas to get their

0:12.4

guys into the United States. So Hamas and Iran's and its proxies are a threat not only to us,

0:19.8

but to all, to Israel, all America's allies in the Middle East and to America itself. Now I had no intention to do it in an episode today, but apparently we're out conquering dictators in the middle of the night on a Friday, so Saturday episode is what you get. Hope you enjoy. I've been trying to get to the bottom of this story, and I've been trying to get some decent coverage and everything I've looked at has been dog shit. So I'm going to connect some dots that apparently no one else is seeing right now. And I think that this is actually what's really happening here. And this is going to seem far-fetched at first, but stick with me as we get towards the end. It'll make a lot of sense and it won't take me long. So just bear with me. Do you have any of your resolution?

0:56.0

I have. Peace on earth. Peace on earth.

1:00.0

So that's Donald Trump just a couple days ago on New Year's Eve at Mar-Lago where

1:05.2

Bibi Netanyahu was president. And he's saying to the press standing there, do you have any

1:09.1

New Year's resolutions President Trump? And he says, peace, peace on earth. And then 48 hours later, we're lighting up a sovereign country. Look, I'm not going to give you the whole libertarian anti-war spiel. You guys already know how I feel about this. I'm an non-interventionist. I'm an America first guy. I'm sincere in that. I have no interest in doing any of this nation building

1:27.9

regime change stuff. So I'm going to spare you the sermon and just tell you what I think is

1:32.1

actually happening because I think that's what really matters here. So we are going to run the country

1:36.2

until such time as we can do a safe, proper, and judicious transition. We are going to run the country. That is regime change along with nation building

1:48.2

to a certain extent. We'll see how much of an extent it ultimately is. But there's a, there's a

1:53.9

connection here that is really important. It's going to seem very disparate and almost far-fetched,

1:59.0

but I promise you there's a lot of merit to this argument.

2:01.7

Over the past 72 hours or so, probably a couple days prior to that, there has been widespread protests in Iran.

2:10.5

And the protesters there, there have been reports of some of them being killed.

2:14.3

It's terrible, obviously.

2:15.8

As you know, Bibi Netanyahu has been champing at the

2:18.5

bit to take out the Iranian leadership forever. And he's been arguing in favor of the American

2:24.8

government, American military, doing it on their behalf forever, like literally my entire life.

2:30.5

If not stopped, Iran could produce a nuclear weapon in a very short time.

2:36.0

It could be a year.
