the mark simone show seven ten w o r well jake novac a great columnist great writer uh producer now you

should follow them on twitter it's jake jake n y at twitter uh better yet substack's got all kinds of

stuff there it's jake novac dot substack dot com jake novac.com. Jakenovac.com. Jake Novak. How are you doing?

I'm doing okay. I'm on the edge of my seat. I see more indications of a imminent Iranian attack.

I know we've been hearing that for about 10 days now, but it feels more likely in the last couple hours than it did before.

So I'm just hoping for the best right now.

Now, a good tactic is considered where you let them think they're getting attacked and they have to go to absolute full alert.

And you keep them there for like two weeks.

It's draining.

You think that's what Iran is doing here?

Well, I think Iran has ratcheted up, actually, their plans for a larger attack, Mark, because this is no longer

really about Israel. It's more about us, Mark. Mark, it's August 12th, 2024. Do you know

who the president is? Because we don't know. We don't know. And when that happens, our enemies rattle our cage louder and louder in the hopes of finding out who really is in charge here. It's not going to be just one person. We know it's a group of people. But we don't really know exactly who's in that group. We don't know who the military point person is in that group. And that is why I'm worried that the attack's going to get bigger because if it's a small thing, if it's something like what we saw in April where they just shot all those missiles and that was serious, but they knew kind of everything would get shot down. Now I think that they want to see who really is in charge because they found out on June 27th. We all knew that Joe Biden wasn't completely in control, but we've known for 46 days or so, Mark, that he's not in control at all. And that's really, really, really dangerous. I know we want to talk about polls and we're talking about Trump and Kamala and all that kind of stuff, but to me, the number one national emergency is we have no idea who the president is. And unfortunately, neither do our enemies. And they really want to find out. And they don't care how many people they have to kill to find out. That's where we are right now. Well, what do we think this attack would look like? Well, they believe now it will be much more concentrated on the north of Israel, but not just like those areas like the Golan Heights and places like that that are very much sadly quite used to being hit by Chisbalah, but maybe even the town of Haifa.

Now, the reason why that's really important is, first of all, that's a much more economically vital part of Israel.

There's a major port there.

But also, that is the biggest city for Christians in Israel.

Christians live in Haifa.

They have for a really long time.

It's one of the great examples of how pluralism actually works inside of Israel.

For all people who think that's funny, you should know that Christians, Muslims, and Jews inside of Israel actually get along really well. It's these outside influences

and the folks in the terrorist groups that kind of ruin it. But I can tell you right now

that if Haifa has any kind of significant damage from any kind of an attack, whether it's from
