drive the video through the algorithm and push us out there so anyways my name is gregg stoker

and for the purposes of this episode i'll introduce myself as a former U.S. Army Ranger, Afghanistan, unfortunately, and currently a geopolitical analyst at Mint Press News, because today we are focusing on Lebanon with a more military-oriented episode, wherein we will discuss leaked U.S. intelligence documents about Israel's impending attack on Iran,

Israel's targeting of banks in Lebanon, their preparations to start bombing hospitals,

sectarian tensions rising in Beirut, and morale problems in the IDF, the Israeli dumbass force.

That's another alternative title we've come up with.

So as Israel expands the dimensions of itself destructive forever war, we are joined again by regular contributor, Matthew Enderline, former U.S. Army Infantry Officer, also Afghanistan, who is currently living in Beirut and is currently watching the bombs fall while getting another U.S. Army infantry officer, also Afghanistan, who is currently living in Beirut and is currently

watching the bombs fall while getting another university degree. Thanks so much for coming on.

Great to be back, Greg.

So real quick, I'm going to send a monologue real quick.

Strap in, y'all.

We're just going to jump right in,

starting with the leaked U.S. intelligence documents before zeroing in on southern Lebanon.

We have to touch on it.

There's an impending Israeli attack on Iran that's going to really heighten tensions yet again.

So on Thursday, this past Thursday, it's currently October 2nd, 22nd. Is it Tuesday?
