	Thank you.
	Thank you.
	Speech to free minds.
	soon.
	You're listening to The David Knight Show.
	As the clock strikes 13, it's Tuesday, the 10th of October.
	Year of Our Lord, 2023.
	2023.
	Well today we're going to talk about what's been going on over the weekend.
	I'm going to give you my take on this.
	And as I looked at this, I thought, where do we start?
	This is something that is an ancient conflict that's been going on for a very long time.
	And the modern aspects of this have been going on for more than a century.
	But I want to begin in terms of What everybody is talking about, the Pearl Harbor, the 9-11 aspect of this.
	Let's talk about the Middle East War.
	What is going to happen to oil, the disruption in our energy, the Great Reset.
	And then we'll take it down to the individual level, to the hostages, to what is a just war?
	And is terrorism ever justified?
	We'll be right back.
	Stay with us.
	Well, everywhere you look in the press, you see analogies to Pearl Harbor, to 9-11, And for many of us who understand that history, that has some extra baggage that I don't know if it was intended for them when they talked about that or not.
	Even to the extent that you have Egyptian intelligence was warned, Zero Hedge story, that something big was coming.
	And they pass it on to the Israelis, who then ignored it.
	Zero Hedge says, Egypt is trying to have a I told you so moment.
	As the government said that Egyptian intelligence tried to repeatedly communicate to Israel that something big was coming prior to the massive jihadist militant attack out of Gaza which killed hundreds of Israelis.
	The top Egyptian official was cited in Israeli media saying Egypt cautioned about the situation's escalation but unfortunately these warnings were disregarded by Israel.
	And of course the role that Egypt has played It's frequently been a moderator between Egypt and Hamas, so they know something about what's going on in the Gaza Strip.
	But of course, so does Israel.
	Israel has very, very sophisticated intelligence.
	It is joined with the Five Eyes, the U.S., British, Canadian, Australian, New Zealand intelligence.
	With all that happening, They didn't see anything going on.
	And I thought it was very strange when I saw this prepared video of the attack.
	And they had the paragliders and they had dramatic music and all the rest of this stuff.
	It was already, it was like a movie trailer.
	And as part of this, they showed them, you know, getting on their gliders with their machine guns and, you know, going a short ways with paragliders.
	And I'm looking at this and thinking, well, you know, how do they get across the border?
	Are there any guards at the border?
	Because these things are so slow-moving, they'd be easy targets.
	But then, you know, they show them landing, getting off and running to a building that is painted white with a big blue star of David on it, just so that you know.
	And doing the house-to-house shooting as you see people practicing with that stuff.
	I thought, well, this is kind of strange.
	Maybe they did this in a foreign country, and maybe they did the practicing and the training and all the rest of the stuff in a foreign country.
	Or maybe it was done there.
	Maybe Israel knew about it.
	The Egyptians said, well, we've warned them.
	An explosion of the situation is coming very soon.
	It would be big, but they underestimated such warning, said the official.
	Who spoke on condition of anonymity with the Associated Press and said that the Egyptian intelligence minister called Netanyahu 10 days before the Hamas attack and warned him of something unusual, a terrible operation that was about to take place from Gaza.
	Egyptians were surprised by the indifference shown by Netanyahu.
	Again, is this really like Pearl Harbor?
	Like FDR, who said, well, we're going to pull back.
	I don't call that a false flag.
	That's not really a false flag.
	It really was a Japanese who attacked Pearl Harbor.
	What FDR did was he unlocked the door.
	He opened the gate so that the enemy could unleash the dogs of war on his own people.
	That's what FDR did.
	Is that what Netanyahu did?
	Is that really the parallel to Pearl Harbor?
	And of course, this is something that has been discussed for quite some time.
	I got, we always have lies that get us into things.
	And it was interesting.
	David Weatherby, listener, sent me a note this morning.
	Today is the 15th anniversary of, I'm sorry, 33rd anniversary of the Kuwaiti nurse, who was 15 years old at the time, telling everybody that Iraqi soldiers, as they had attacked Kuwait, Iraqi soldiers were taking babies out of the incubators and throwing them on the ground and then kidnapping some babies and taking them away to Iraq.
	That 15-year-old nurse, 33 years ago, a lie.
	And as he said, she's now a 48-year-old war criminal for pushing that stuff.
	And so when we look at how they want to start wars, it's very interesting.
	If you go back and you look at this, this was actually going back to 2003, but it was not released until 2020.
	How do we get a war with Iran?
	Crisis initiation is really tough.
	And it's very hard for me to see how the United States President can get us to war with Iran.
	Which leads me to conclude that if, in fact, compromise is not company, that the traditional way of America gets to war is what would be best for U.S. interests.
	Some people might think that Mr.
	Roosevelt wanted to get us into World War II, as David mentioned.
	You may recall we had to wait for Pearl Harbor.
	Some people might think Mr.
	Wilson wanted to get us into World War I. You may recall he had to wait for the Lusitania episode.
	Some people might think that Mr.
	Johnson wanted to send troops to Vietnam.
	You may recall that he had to wait for the Gulf of Tonkin episode.
	We didn't go to war with Spain until the Maine exploded.
	And may I point out that Mr.
	Lincoln did not feel he could call out the Federal Army until Fort Sumter was attacked.
	Which is why he ordered the commander at Fort Sumter to do exactly that thing which the South Carolinians had said would cause an attack.
	So if, in fact, the Iranians aren't going to compromise, it would be best if somebody else started the war.
	Yeah. Oh, so funny.
	But actually, all of that is true.
	By the way, I said 2003.
	It was 2012. Leaked in 2020.
	And by the way, that was passed to me by Don Jeffries.
	Thank you, Don. Somebody else had posted that, and he forwarded that to me on Twitter.
	But when we look at this, and he was speaking at the Washington Near East Institute in 2012.
	How do we start a war with Iran?
	Well, it would be better if somebody else started it for us.
	It would be better if we let them attack first.
	You see, the moral compass of a justified war, sometimes people say just war, but a justified war means that you have to be attacked first.
	Now, if we go back to Pearl Harbor, the fact that FDR opened the gates and stood down the defense Does not mean that the Japanese did not bear any moral responsibility for what they did.
	They did. It's just that FDR partnered with them.
	And as he goes through and talks about all these different things, I've talked many times about how the Gulf of Tonkin incident was a false flag.
	You even had McNamara saying that at the end of his life, essentially doing a mea culpa confession on that documentary, The Fog of War.
	And as part of that, he said, you know, if we would have lost the war, we would have been tried as war criminals for what happened in Dresden.
	So he was trying to push, you know, I didn't do anything that anybody else wouldn't have done.
	And it really is, as we've seen the change of technology, and of course the loss of a moral foundation in the West, we have moved away from justified wars.
	It used to be, as part of a justified war, that you would not attack unless you had been attacked first, because the purpose of even having a defensive war was to stop the slaughter of innocent life.
	And so to that end, you would go to great lengths to not involve the civilian population.
	That's why Western Christian nations would wear uniforms, which you don't typically see with other civilizations in times past.
	They might do it to some extent to identify their own people, but for the most part, they did not.
	And there was not the attempt to try to keep the civilian population out of it.
	All that went by the wayside, really, as technology started bringing airplanes and bombs and missiles into play in World War II. And then, of course, we lost our moral foundation as well with Operation Paperclip and other things like that.
	We brought in the Nazis.
	We became the Nazis ethically.
	And so when you look at this anymore, that has all kind of gone by the wayside.
	The idea of preemptive war, well, that was a day of infamy when Pearl Harbor happened.
	But now that is standard policy by the American government.
	And it's still wrong when we do it.
	It still is a day of infamy whenever we invade preemptively.
	The Russians do it.
	We do it. Everybody pretty much is doing that.
	And this is something that should really concern all of us.
	Because in the past, you go back to every civilization, whether you want to talk about Greek civilization, Roman civilization, you know, the Native Americans here in North America, the Indians.
	Take a look at African tribes.
	Take a look in South America.
	Every war, it was total war.
	They would go in, they would rape people, they would murder people, they would make slaves out of people, take hostages, as we see happening now.
	We are reverting back to that barbarism because we've lost our Christian roots.
	But now we have, combined with that pagan barbarism, we now have technology that magnifies that.
	It's a very concerning thing.
	And this is why when we look at this, and everybody wants to say, well, who's at fault?
	When did this all start?
	Did it start, you know, in 1948?
	Did it start 100 years before?
	Did it start, you know, go back to the time of Moses 3,500 years ago?
	Or to the time of Abraham 4,000 years ago?
	Where do we set this?
	Well, rather than pointing fingers of blame, we better start looking and getting out of this Hatfields and McCoy thing.
	But more importantly, we need to reclaim the moral foundation of our societies.
	That is the big issue here in front of us.
	Rather than pointing the finger at somebody else, and rather than, you know, our side or their side, or we're going to equivocate this, we need to say...
	Who's on God's side in all of this?
	And, of course, I don't see any countries that are on the side of God.
	When you look at Israel, and a lot of people talk about Israeli prophecies, and, of course, that is a very important thing to look at.
	However, as God has had his chosen people throughout the Bible, They go through these cycles of judgment against his own people.
	Why? Because of evil practices, because of corruption in the government.
	It's not always just idolatry that God would judge them for.
	It was also for corruption.
	And it was also for internal corruption.
	And things like that.
	But it is, you know, we need to understand, just go back a couple of years and take a look at what Netanyahu was doing to his own people.
	He was using them like lab rats for Pfizer.
	So, you want to talk about somebody who's anti-Semitic?
	Start with the Israeli government.
	You want to talk about somebody who's American?
	Start with the federal government in Washington.
	They're anti-American.
	Netanyahu is anti-Israeli.
	Our governments do not represent us.
	Don't march off to war for these people.
	And don't march off to war for a bunch of terrorists murdering and raping people and cutting their heads off.
	I'm sick of both sides here with this.
	And that's where the equivocation comes in.
	You need to be very concerned that this kind of barbarism It's amongst us in every single country.
	Just look at how people have lined up on both sides of this.
	And will justify any means against the people that they don't like.
	That's what this is going to look like.
	And this is one of the reasons why you've got the Great Replacement going on.
	Why there's a massive importation of people.
	They know they can get ethnic conflict, like you have seen going on for quite some time.
	And the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, they know how to take people into slavery and poverty and austerity.
	Just look at these meager existences that these people have in these various areas.
	So, again, as we look at this, is this not a false flag?
	But did they open the gates?
	Did they stand down?
	Did they let this happen?
	We have seen this over and over again.
	And as I said before, they're closely allied with the American government and the CIA. And when you expect that the Mossad and the CIA use the same tactics, of course they do.
	We've seen this over and over again.
	We prepared for over a year, said a captured Hamas terrorist.
	We were shocked that the IDF, the Israeli Defense Forces, were not waiting for us.
	This is an article from Brian Shalhavi.
	He said, and he had a clip from Ben Barty, not a clip, but a quote there.
	He says, Ben Barty says, no, the Hamas invasion was not an Israeli intelligence failure, quote unquote.
	One would have to be almost hopelessly naive to buy the corporate state media line that Hamas invasion was an Israeli intelligence failure.
	Mossad is one of, if not the most powerful intelligence agencies on the planet, routinely sharing intelligence and furthermore with the Five Eyes Intelligence Service.
	We've got satellites all over the place watching this stuff, especially there.
	It has its tentacles deep inside of every ally and foe.
	Its spies are littered throughout the Gaza Strip.
	Which is an effective open-air prison.
	And he talks about it as being an open-air prison.
	I'm going to talk about how much it is like the smart cities that they want to design for us as well.
	And let me just say, you know, when we see people, Caitlin Johnstone had an article saying they're using that way.
	Everybody's using this word unprovoked, unprovoked, unprovoked.
	No, I don't think this is unprovoked.
	However, there is no sense of proportionality.
	That's the issue here. You know, you have Ben Shapiro out there saying, if you make some kind of equivocation, then you are the problem.
	Well, I'm not equivocating.
	I'm just saying that I don't think anything justifies terrorism.
	And I think that if you steal somebody's property, that doesn't, if somebody steals your property, that doesn't entitle you to go behead them, okay?
	Or to rape their wife or whatever.
	Or murder their children because they stole your property.
	There needs to be proportionality.
	And so there is no proportionality, but it is provoked.
	And we need to look at the tools and tactics.
	Again, the great replacement and migration, and then this ethnic conflict that is being set up in all of our countries now.
	And we need to understand the dynamics of this so that we don't foolishly walk into this with our eyes closed, asleep.
	Anyway, going back to what Ben Barty said, he said the Hamas invasion of southern Israel yesterday was an operation involving tens of thousands of operatives, at least, across land, sea, and air, using all manner of equipment and weaponry, drones, thousands of rockets, countless firearms, even bulldozers are positioned to knock down Israeli fencing.
	MSNBC and CNN would have you believe this is all a big intelligence failure by Mossad.
	They didn't see it happening.
	They didn't see it coming.
	Netanyahu was in real political trouble before this conveniently timed invasion.
	You understand? Right?
	That's where the politics come in.
	It's always been said, rich man war, poor man's fight.
	That's what they said in the Civil War.
	And it's always true.
	The elitists, the money, the politicians, the government, they're acting in their own interests.
	They can make lots of money off of war.
	They can use war to keep in power.
	When all else fails and we start to realize what they've been doing to us, well, they take us to war, as Gerald Salenti has always pointed out.
	So is that part of the calculation here by Netanyahu?
	Meanwhile, Israeli intelligence, rather than being punished for its failure, will use its failure as a pretext to garner more funding and more authority for itself to prevent another such quote-unquote failure.
	Well, this is what always happens.
	Every bureaucracy does this in America as well.
	Well, we completely screwed that up, so you're going to have to make us even bigger and give us more money.
	There's never any change.
	There's always an excuse to grow the agency.
	And in this story on vaccineimpact.com, Rangel Havi reports what one woman in Tel Aviv, an Israeli, a private reporter now, her name is Efrat Finigsen.
	She formerly served in the Israeli military, and she writes on Substack now, and is reporting firsthand from Israel.
	And what she said was, apparently, Israeli defense forces that were supposed to be around Gaza were placed around the West Bank.
	Because of security concerns.
	So the Gaza envelope was left unoccupied by military.
	Oh. Well, we've seen that type of thing before, right?
	Move everybody away. She said, I served in the IDF 25 years ago in intelligence.
	There is no way that Israel did not know what is coming.
	A cat moving alongside the fence is triggering all forces.
	So this has happened?
	This happened to the strongest army in the world?
	How come border crossings were wide open?
	Something is, and she writes in all uppercase, very wrong here.
	Something is very strange.
	This chain of events is very unusual and not typical for the Israeli defense system.
	And I say all of this, and I decided I would start with this rather than the personal stories I'll get to later.
	Because we need to understand how we're being manipulated in this, as we always are.
	It is not in America's interest to go to war.
	It's not in an American's interest, I should say.
	Maybe in the interest of the American government.
	It may be in the interest of the Israeli government to have war.
	It's not in the interest of the Israelis.
	There's a lot of families that are mourning.
	There's a lot of families that are going to be mourning in Gaza.
	So, it is not in the interest of the little people.
	Poor man's fight. Rich man's war.
	We don't want to be maneuvered into world war, into even a bigger Mideast war, into something that is going to disrupt oil and energy to help accomplish their Great Reset for 2030.
	We're only seven years out, folks.
	We're even closer than that.
	And understand that their plan is to destroy us economically with war if possible.
	Their plan is to destroy us and have their other society in place by 2030.
	I think they're trying to make this come on to us very, very quickly.
	We need to be aware of this.
	We need to make preparations.
	As a matter of fact, you know, the, I don't have it here with me, but the civildefensemanual.com.
	You know, make individual preparation.
	The American government is not going to protect you.
	Right? As Putin was doing civil defense drills, we were doing our October the 4th drill, the emergency broadcasting system.
	Just so they can tell you, missiles are on the way.
	And then it's up to you. Right?
	Or whatever. So, yeah, you better prepare yourself.
	CivilDefenseManual.com.
	And prepare in the sense that, you know, you're not going to live forever.
	Nobody's going to live forever.
	Tomorrow's not promised to any of us.
	So, and I don't say this because, you know, we're all going to die type of thing.
	We are all going to die.
	It's just a matter of time.
	And we'll all stand before God.
	So prepare yourself for that primarily.
	And when it all hits the fan, Don't lose sight of God.
	And don't lose sight of trusting Him.
	And don't lose your morals.
	Don't become a monster when this comes your way.
	And it's coming your way.
	It's coming my way as well.
	So tonight, she said on Israel's Channel 12, mainstream media reported that a Hamas soldier that was captured said, we prepared for over a year.
	The demonstrations in Israel encouraged us.
	It's been five hours till Israel started shooting at us.
	We were all set up with a thousand soldiers.
	We created 15 breaches and the border fence.
	And we were surprised and shocked that IDF was not waiting for us, he said.
	Netanyahu has publicly said this is Israel's Pearl Harbor moment.
	And as Brian Shulhavi says, Pearl Harbor was a false flag attack.
	Again, I would not call it a false flag attack.
	I think a false flag, again, technically a false flag is when you pull something off.
	This is how I define it, at least.
	A government doesn't attack and blames it on somebody or some group other than them.
	Putting up a different flag.
	Just like you got pirates who are, you know, raiding a ship.
	You know, they come up and they fly a flag that is friendly to that ship.
	And then at the last minute, they pull their flag down and start shooting.
	Or maybe they start shooting before they pull the flag down.
	That's a false flag event.
	Pertaining that you're somebody else.
	But what FDR did was he unlocked the gates and essentially invited them to come in.
	He unleashed the dogs of war.
	So, how Hamas duped Israel as it planned a devastating attack.
	This is Reuters. This is mainstream media telling you this.
	Israel was caught off guard, even though they had bulldozers there by the fence, thousands of soldiers, hang gliders and motorbikes.
	For some reason, the Israeli soldiers have been relocated to another place, while Israel was led to believe that it was containing a war-weary Hamas by providing economic incentives to Gazan workers.
	The group's fighters were being trained and drilled, often in plain sight.
	A source close to Hamas.
	So maybe those videos that they did, maybe they weren't in another country.
	Maybe they didn't go to Iran or to Syria, the train on their motorized paragliders, and to go house to house, the houses that were marked up.
	This is an Israeli house, white house, the big blue Star of David on it.
	This is our 9-11.
	It's that Major Nir Danar, spokesperson for Israeli Defense Forces.
	They got us. Well, you know, it may be their 9-11 in the sense.
	It may be Pearl Harbor in the sense that they stood down and let it happen.
	And it may be 9-11 in the sense that they'll use it for a wider war.
	They surprised us.
	They came fast from many spots, both on the air, in the ground, and in the sea.
	We'll be right back.
	We'll be right back.
	We'll be right back.
	We'll be right
	back. . .
	Making sense.
	common again.
	You're listening to The David Knight Show.
	All right, let's talk about the wider Mideast war that people like Lindsey Graham are pushing for.
	Again, as I said, I want to start at the geopolitical level.
	They'll move down closer to the individual person level.
	But as this article from The Atlantic says, and of course, The Atlantic is a mouthpiece for NATO. It is not only establishment media, but it's also a NATO mouthpiece.
	They said 9-11 Pearl Harbor weren't just tragic attacks.
	They were causus belli for seismic wars.
	Netanyahu has declared his country will be heading into a long and grueling war.
	Will October the 7th also lead to a broader conflagration in the region?
	Can Israel rightly consider itself to be engaged in a shadow conflict with Iran?
	So, it is, you know, again, to use this to expand this.
	Now, there's been a lot of different takes on this.
	And again, when we look at this and say, you know, maybe they did a deliberate stand-down.
	It's hard to believe that they'd be this open, wide open, and this unprepared.
	And the timing looks good for Netanyahu.
	He needed this. And, you know, many different elections can never put the government together.
	Finally, they got a government together, but it's still nip and tuck to retain power.
	This consolidates everybody, of course.
	Whenever you have war, all your domestic problems go away.
	That's why when everything else fails and it hits the fan, they take us to war.
	Did this happen there?
	Now, I'm not going the full route that Stu Peters did, for example, or as my son said, just call him Stu Pid.
	This is what he put up.
	All this video hitting the internet has to have been faked.
	I have to ask, would those guys want their faces to be seen, posted online, worldwide?
	If they did, they're just begging Mossad to find them and kill their whole family, including their pets.
	This is not real. He doesn't think any of the stuff that you're seeing there is real.
	Here's a Steve Pacinic angle.
	Nobody died type of stuff, perhaps.
	Then again, he's out there.
	They're putting these videos up of the young girl who was beaten, killed.
	You can see her leg was broken and folded back.
	Just horrific. And they're parading her around in her truck and people are spitting on her.
	That's not real. They've got jump cuts there.
	And they're moving from one angle to the other.
	Come on. Come on, Stu.
	It's just... He never can go low enough and add enough levels of lies and disinformation to stuff.
	Just like, oh, the vaccine, that had to be snake venom and all the rest of the stuff.
	It's just beyond belief.
	But it works.
	It does work. It gets you a big following.
	So, enjoy that following.
	You'll answer for it some days, too.
	You, people like you.
	Alex, the rest of them.
	Putting out garbage like that.
	It truly is disgusting.
	So, anyway, going back to reality.
	More important than material support.
	Tehran offers Hamas membership in an anti-Israel club with forces arrayed across the region.
	The axis of resistance.
	This is coming from the Atlantic again.
	Remember, this is NATO mouthpiece.
	These are the people who are pushing for a bigger Mideastern war.
	The axis of resistance counts the membership of Houthis in Yemen, of Hezbollah in Lebanon, right on Israel's northern border, and various Iraqi and Syrian militias.
	As others have pointed out, Tehran's arming of these forces with its advanced missile technology has changed the face of warfare in the region.
	Let me just say, you know, even these terms that they pick, like militia, You know that that is a term that is designed to denigrate our long tradition, especially the founding of our country, of citizen militias.
	And going before that, the yeomanry in the UK. So they use these terms like militias.
	They're nothing but terrorists. They're terrorist groups.
	Don't call them militias.
	And then they will also call them fundamentalists.
	Because they want to get after people who are Bible-believing Christians, fundamentalists.
	That's why they start calling these terrorists fundamentalists.
	So they take terrorists and they label them fundamentalists as if they're fundamentalist Christians or they refer to them as militias because, you know, nobody should be allowed to own guns.
	And by the way, the Israeli government doesn't trust its own citizens to be able to protect themselves.
	That's one of the reasons why it was so bad once they got in.
	You don't, you know, they make it virtually impossible for private gun ownership.
	That's another lesson for us.
	And it's another lesson about a government that you can't trust.
	Any government that can't trust its own people with a gun is a government that you can't trust with a gun.
	So, as others have pointed out, Tehran's arming of these forces with advanced missile technology has changed the face of warfare in the region.
	It is truly amazing.
	And we'll show a picture of...
	Let's just do it right now.
	I'm going to get to this later. But when you look at how many people there are in Israel, there's about 7 million people.
	And that's about the population of Tennessee, 7 million people.
	And yet, when you look at this, look at this map.
	This is a map of the state of Tennessee.
	And of course, you know, they sort of reoriented one of these things one way or the other.
	Israel runs basically, it's narrow, running north and south.
	And Tennessee is narrow, running east and west.
	So it's kind of difficult to see on this, how the two line up with each other.
	But you can see that Israel is a very, very tiny, tiny portion of Of Tennessee.
	Both of them have the same population.
	But it's about, Tennessee's about five times bigger than Israel.
	Okay? And then when you take a look, if you look at that map there, you see that little tiny notch there on the left side before the Israeli map takes a sharp turn back down to the right.
	It's angling off to the left and it does a sharp turn down to the right.
	That little notch right there.
	That's a tiny little Gaza Strip where all this stuff is happening.
	And in that Gaza Strip, so you've got 7 million people crammed into the state of Israel, you know, five times the density of Tennessee.
	But inside of Gaza, you have a little tiny area there that is only 140 square miles.
	Now, while we're talking about Tennessee, if you take Nashville, it's 530 square miles.
	The Gaza Strip is only 140 square miles.
	And yet the population inside that 140 square miles, they've got between 2 and 2.5 million people crammed in there.
	Population of Nashville is a little over 600,000.
	And so you see what is happening here.
	And that is part of this Smart City Agenda 21 type of thing.
	Poverty, you can't find a job, you can't go anywhere without the government surveilling you and giving you permission.
	That's one of the reasons why it makes it all the more unbelievable that they wouldn't know what was happening in this tiny area where they carefully control anybody going in and out, and they're constantly watching people.
	And then, of course, very difficult for you to get a job.
	So you're put on kind of a welfare system, universal basic income, if you will.
	And they give you some basic food and basic shelter and things like that.
	And you have absolutely no control over your life.
	You have no possibility of upward mobility.
	And that is one of the things that more than any religion, according to the Pentagon, when they're talking about asymmetric warfare, they said the thing that starts this, yeah, people, once the war starts, they go heavily into their religion.
	But the thing that starts it, you typically have people who are well-educated, who did have a prospect for life, perhaps, and all that has been taken away from them, and they have absolutely no control over their future.
	And that's what creates and recruits terrorists.
	And that's not to justify or excuse their terrorism.
	It's just a fact.
	And we need to understand what creates these problems so that we can start to try to move away from this.
	For these people who are already terrorists, it's too late for them.
	We can go back and we can say, well, you know, what is it that made Jeffrey Dahmer a serial killer and a rapist and all the rest of this stuff?
	Well, that'd be interesting for people to talk about after the fact that maybe they can do something to keep that from happening again with somebody else.
	But... Meanwhile, we've got to get this guy and put him down.
	He is a mad dog.
	And that's the way we ought to look at this stuff, too.
	Certainly, we don't want to have this type of situation.
	And we don't want to be maneuvered into this, which is what the globalists are doing with this UN 2030 agenda.
	They're maneuvering us to all live in a situation like the Gaza Strip.
	And so we have to understand what the context of this is.
	But anyway, so yeah, the missiles that are there, and as we're looking at that, how small the country is and how close everything is.
	The Gaza Strip and the other areas where they are shooting missiles under them.
	And then the missiles coming in from Lebanon.
	Again, this terrorist group, Hezbollah, that's up there.
	I'm not going to call them a militia.
	But they're there and they can fire rockets in as well.
	And so it truly is amazing when you look at that small area.
	I mean, it'd be like, you know, just a couple of towns over.
	Somebody shooting missiles into our town here.
	But the question is, you know, we look at the Islamic Revolutionary Guard and going back again.
	You know, we want to go back and look at history.
	Who was it that radicalized Iran so much?
	It was the CIA with the Shah of Iran and other things like that.
	Now, they were already radicalized in the sense that they were communists and leftists, and that was the reason that the CIA overthrew their election and put the Shah of Iran in there.
	But then that pushed them, because the CIA trained the Savak to be ruthless and to terrorize people, arresting them, torturing them, killing them.
	They're secret police.
	Because of that...
	That pushed them into the arms of radical Islamic terrorists.
	And, you know, that is, when we look at, you know, Iran was a monster that was really groomed and trained by the CIA in a kind of blowback, if you will.
	Hamas spokesman, and that's not to justify anything.
	I'm not taking the tact that the liberals do.
	It's just a product of their environment.
	No, they bear moral responsibility for it.
	It's just that you keep doing certain things and it's going to create, you know, not everybody becomes a terrorist.
	Even in, you know, in Iran.
	A lot of people went through the same common experiences and they did not become terrorists in Iran.
	There's a lot of normal people there.
	And they don't like the Ayatollah or the terrorism either.
	But when you do the types of things that the CIA did and the Shah of Iran did, what it does is it's going to radicalize and make terrorists out of a certain percentage of the population.
	Now that's a fact. Doesn't mean that everybody is that way, but it means that you're going to wind up getting that.
	So Hamas spokesperson Ghazi Hamad told the BBC that Iran gave its support to the Palestinian terror group to launch its surprise multi-front attack on Israel on Saturday.
	Wall Street Journal was reporting that as well.
	So again, people have questioned this.
	I said, is the mainstream media lying?
	Is Hamas lying? Do they want to take credit for this?
	Either way, this is going to be used by both sides, I think, to try to trigger a larger war.
	One of the Zero Hedge articles at the end of it said, well, bottom line is fill up your gas tank.
	That's going to be the first effect.
	I hope it isn't just the beginning of something that's much worse.
	So Hezebulun is next to the attack.
	War could spiral into the biggest in decades.
	Because again, it's not just about Gaza, but now Lebanon is already, and again, Lebanon used to be this peaceful country.
	I think it was mostly Christian, if not all Christian, until the Palestinians went in there and started these terrorist groups, Hezbollah and others.
	Iran helped to radicalize that.
	But I can see it spreading into that very rapidly because it already is.
	They're getting some missiles shot in, and Israel has gone back and attacked those locations.
	So the Mideast Road to World War III. Scott Lively on WND. He says, you know, I've been talking about the race to global governance.
	I've been talking about how the leaders at the UN have made a seven-year agreement to implement a single global agenda.
	That's the 2030 agenda and the sustainable development goals.
	And they want to have that in place by 2030.
	He said, the second article that he wrote, he said, predicts that 2030 is when the merge happens.
	He's talking about the singularity.
	OpenAI president Sam Altman told Netanyahu of a coming man-machine merger.
	They just can't stop talking about this.
	Whether it's Sam Altman or Yuval Harari or whatever, did Netanyahu push back against this?
	Or is he all in on it?
	Because he was all in on the Pfizer stuff, too.
	Right? Two possible futures, he said.
	A future extinction of mankind, or a future, quote-unquote, heaven, in which AGI eliminates artificial general intelligence.
	In other words, beyond what we see with chat GPT. AGI eliminates poverty, hunger, and sickness, and mankind merges with machines.
	Scott Lively said, only God creates heaven, and any man-made counterfeit is going to be hell on earth.
	But this is what they're pushing for.
	This is what all the billionaires are pushing for.
	Elon Musk is pushing for that as well.
	All of his Neuralink stuff, all of his talk about how he's going to do his own artificial intelligence after saying that with AI we have summoned the demon, He poses in a Baphomet outfit.
	I mean, he's...
	Can anybody...
	Yeah, a lot of people do see it, what is going on with this guy.
	He's portraying himself as a hero, and he does some of the right things when it comes to freedom of speech, but there is a double...
	I think he's setting himself up to stab us in the back, just like Donald Trump.
	Anyway, the fallback plan, of course, is World War III. Scott Lively says, suspiciously when it comes just as NATO powers are finally admitting, even if just hinting about it obliquely, that NATO powers are admitting that they're losing the Ukraine war.
	Now we have a new front that is opening up here.
	And I think it's interesting also, you know, we played that clip from 2012, where he says, well, how do we get to war with Iran?
	Well, we let somebody else do it, or, you know, we let it appear as if they attack first.
	You know, going back to November of 2001, just a couple of months after 9-11, Wesley Clark, who was the former NATO commander, he wrote a book about it, published it recently.
	But he said that two months after 9-11, he talked to a senior military officer there in D.C. who said he was there when the Bush administration was planning to attack seven different countries.
	Remember that? We're going to go after Iraq first, then Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Iran, Somalia, Sudan, Looks like they're pretty much executing that plan, very similar to what they've actually done.
	And then you look at it, you know, from the standpoint of, and this is Scott Lively writing for W&D, so he looks at it from a Bible prophecy front.
	And I'm not going to get into the details of this.
	I'll just say this, and I'll let everybody else argue about the eschatology of what's going to happen.
	I think it's very interesting when you go back and you look at Old Testament prophecies, you look at the chronology of Christ, and you had Robert Anderson, who was head of Scotland Yard, and in 1894 he wrote a book called The Coming Prince, and he nailed it down to a specific day.
	Based on the prophecies of Daniel.
	You have other prophecies, Ezekiel and Jeremiah, that talk about as Israel was taken away in Babylonian captivity, how they would be reconstituted.
	And other people worked out a chronology going to 1948.
	Now, I don't know.
	You can take a look at those and see if you agree with that.
	I think it's pretty amazing. I think it's pretty amazing just as we see this mark of the government, global ID, that is happening everywhere.
	And so without majoring on all these things, just understand that what this shows us is that God is still on the throne.
	It is God who is working with us over and above what these politicians are doing.
	And so we should always keep that in mind.
	Regardless of what your eschatology is, understand that God is on the throne.
	And all of that, again, does not give any government, including the Israeli government, a blank check to act corruptly.
	And just look at what has happened this last three years.
	There's not a government on earth that I would trust for anything.
	That's especially true of Israel.
	When he turned his people into lab rats, you know, saying, well, we want to get first in line with Pfizer.
	We didn't sign up for this in advance, so put us at the front of the line, and we'll give you all the data about what happens to our people.
	For the next couple of years, we'll give you detailed information.
	Has that detailed information been put out anywhere?
	No, we've had some whistleblowers inside of the Israeli government telling us about it.
	And of course, we're able to work out what these people are doing without getting a signed confession from them.
	You don't need a signed confession when people are dropping dead.
	So, you know, we know what is happening with this.
	And we also know who is responsible for it.
	Never forget that.
	We'll be right back.
	We'll be right back.
	We'll be right back.
	Let's talk a little bit about the economy and what's going to happen to oil if there is a greater Mideastern war.
	And you have OPEC. I'd already been warning the West, you know, all this green agenda stuff.
	You might want to start investing some money in the oil industry.
	You know, nothing lasts forever.
	You set up refineries or other things like that, they start to wear out.
	And so they said the world needs $14 trillion in cumulative investments in the oil sector by 2045 in order to ensure market stability and to avoid energy and economic chaos.
	But of course they're not.
	They're going to spend $30, $50 trillion or something like that worldwide on the green agenda, but they don't want to do anything for the oil side of this.
	And that's really where our stable energy is coming from.
	It's interesting to see how things have changed.
	OPEC and the oil embargo of the 1970s sending a shock through America and Europe and Western society created the stagflation.
	Looking very much like what is happening now, except it's not being done by people who are trying to squeeze more money out of us.
	It's being done by Biden, who's trying to squeeze more money out of us.
	For his own purposes, you know, not for Arabs abroad or for oil companies, but to squeeze money out of us for Bill Gates and the green mob that is out there.
	Let me say, by the way, before I get into this, I see some notes that have been up here, and I should have read these already.
	On Rumble, Dan Gunn Branson, thank you very much for the tip.
	He says, working for the weekend.
	On Rumble, Jim Z7, thank you for the tip.
	He said, we need gun control for our governments.
	Yes, yes. Gun control, plane control, tank control, some of these other things.
	Unfortunately, all we can do is watch the butchers of CIA and Mossad, etc., play their war games at our expense while the general public is blindly shocked and awed.
	And, of course, I'm going to get into the back and forth of what is happening with this as well.
	On Rumble, Geese Busters, Stu Peters is not real, he says.
	And, of course, Geese Busters sent me something I haven't gotten to yet that I want to talk about as well in terms of where are these weapons coming from?
	Very interesting take on that.
	And on Rockfin. Thank you very much, Eric.
	I appreciate the tip on Rockfin.
	Thank you. But again, let's get back to the energy issue.
	The real world, you know? The surest way to poverty, to inflation, to stagflation, to dragflation that Salenti is talking about, is to cut us off at the knees in terms of energy.
	And now, OPEC is more on our side than Joe Biden is on this issue.
	OPEC is more on our side than the World Economic Forum is.
	I mean, they're just kind of the old-fashioned corruption thing.
	You know, how much money can we get out of people?
	These other people are not only trying to fleece us, they're trying to kill us as well in their own way.
	If these investments do not materialize, it represents a considerable challenge and risk to market stability and energy security, OPEC said in its annual report.
	Ensuring that these investments are made and sustained is a key challenge and of utmost importance to the stability of oil markets and the security of supply.
	But see, the problem is that those leaders that we have now, they hate their own countries.
	And they want to push us all into chaos and austerity.
	Going back to the OPEC report.
	Hurdles to upstream investment or even calls to curtail investment are not helpful in this regard and raise the risk of supply shortfalls and market volatility.
	Yeah, when you look at what is happening in the quietly in Germany and the UK and other places, they're quietly bringing some of the stuff that they made a big fanfare of shutting down.
	They're quietly bringing it back online for the winter.
	They know what they can depend on.
	They know what works and what doesn't work.
	All of this rush to push us into something that has not been tested, not working yet, that is all part of a chaos and austerity program, just as Operation Warp Speed to push untested mRNA vaccines into our bodies was all part of their agenda.
	Calls to stop investments in new oil projects are misguided, said OPEC. And could lead to energy and economic chaos.
	That's the purpose. This is like people looking at the schools and saying, Johnny can't read.
	Well, you don't understand. That's not the purpose of the school, to teach Johnny to read or to think or to do math or anything else.
	And the purpose of our energy policy is not to give us energy.
	It's to take it away from us.
	History is replete with numerous examples of turmoil that should serve as a warning for what occurs when policymakers fail to acknowledge energy's interwoven complexities.
	It is foundational.
	It's foundational to our economy.
	It is foundational to our quality of life.
	And it is also foundational to our length of life as well.
	So, with all that in mind...
	Enter the ultimate chicken hawk, Lindsey Graham, who now wants to widen the war to go after Iran's oil refineries.
	Yeah. And this is in response to the threats from Hamas that they will execute hostages if Israel bombs into Gaza.
	They said, for every bomb that falls, we're going to execute hostages.
	And so Lindsey Graham then...
	Rather than taking it to Hamas, wants to take it to Iran, and specifically to the oil fields.
	Lindsey Graham said, For every Israeli American hostage executed by Hamas, we should take down an Iranian oil refinery.
	The only way to keep this war from escalating is to hold Iran accountable.
	How much more death and destruction do we have to take from the Iranian regime?
	I'm confident this was planned and funded by the Iranians, he said.
	Well, I know how much death and destruction Lindsey Graham has been planning everywhere on the planet.
	There isn't a conflict anywhere that he doesn't want to send somebody else to go die.
	And to kill. Take it to the Iranians.
	If you harm one American in Syria by using your Iranian militia against us in Syria, if you escalate the war by urging Hezbollah to attack Israel in the north, if Hamas kills one American or Israeli hostage, we're going to blow up your oil refineries and put you out of business.
	Well, he's going to put us out of business, too, right?
	Yeah. That's a great way to get to a great reset, isn't it, Lindsay?
	Who are you working for? Klaus tell you to do this?
	Ayatollah Ali Kamani posted on Twitter that Israel would, quote, definitely be eradicated days before the deadly attack.
	So Israel is now ordering Chevron to close the Tamar gas field, a very large gas field that is there.
	As a matter of fact, at the time of its discovery in 2009, Tamar was the largest find of natural gas Yeah, very, very vulnerable.
	I mean, you don't, you know.
	If our rocket gets anywhere close to any part of that, it can blow up that gas field and keep it going.
	Chevron Mediterranean Limited was instructed by Israel's Ministry of Energy to shut down production and the Tamar production platform.
	And so gas prices in Europe jumped by 11%.
	In the U.S. right now, they're only up by 1% because so far, Biden has not been able to completely shut down our domestic energy production, although he's working on it.
	That was his number one priority when he became president, first thing.
	Let's shut down pipelines, let's get rid of leases, and all this.
	So on Rabobank, he does a good job of laying out all the different hotspots that are developing right now.
	And again, you know, we are in this season, the season where they are trying to establish Their 2030 agenda, and that is time to coincide with the fourth turning.
	They believe that they can move us into what Klaus Schwab calls the fourth industrial revolution, and that they can use the timing of a fourth turning, Strauss and Howe.
	Generations was the first book they did in, like, 1991 or whatever.
	Within a year or two, they did the fourth turning.
	They're the people who coined the phrase millennials.
	They are the ones who talk about different generations about 20 years apart.
	And they identified a cycle in history.
	About every four generations, you have a major restructuring of society.
	Institutions are swept aside.
	New ones are created. It is always accompanied by economic disruption and usually accompanied by war.
	The previous four turnings we've had here in America...
	World War II and the Great Depression, the Civil War, and the Revolutionary War.
	You get the idea, right?
	And of course, you know, Russia had their Russian Revolution, and it was like 72 years later that you had the major restructuring there.
	And they were not on exactly the same schedule.
	The point that they made was they went back for 500 years.
	They said the U.S. and England were synchronized in terms of this because, you know, America being an offshoot of the U.K. So they went back 500 years and identified this cycle.
	When you get into the 20th century, though, they said now the world has become synchronized and everybody is on the same cycle.
	And so Rabobank doesn't talk about this.
	Michael Every doesn't talk about this.
	But he said, this is his analysis.
	He doesn't talk about the fourth turning.
	He talks about all the different wars that are happening right now.
	He says, if Israel starts a ground war in Gaza, to do so, Hezbollah in Lebanon says it will start an assault with its large stock of fighters and its more dangerous missiles, more dangerous than the ones that they've gotten in the Gaza Strip.
	Israel would find itself in a bloody two-front war, three fronts if Iranian militias in Syria and Iraq are activated.
	Let's just call them Iranian terrorists, okay?
	I hate the fact that they use these weaponized terms.
	Anyway, the country could find itself under existential threat, in the words of a former senior security official.
	That would only increase the severity, then, of Israel's military response.
	Yeah, so put Israel into an existential threat, just like we've put Russia into an existential threat.
	Lebanon, Jordan, Egypt, and there's an Egyptian election in December.
	All these could be destabilized based on this war.
	It's pro-Palestinian population out of Egypt is already seething about high inflation.
	Two Israeli tourists were shot dead by an Egyptian policeman in Alexandria the day this stuff kicked off.
	The Suez Canal runs to Egypt.
	And for those of you who think that goods appear at the click of a digital button, that could be very disrupting there as well.
	Russia is neck deep in Syria.
	And then, of course, we have the Saudi-Israeli peace deal that was being brokered.
	That is now pretty much dead.
	Riyadh was boosting oil output in 2024 as a sweetener.
	So you can forget that as well.
	So more constriction of oil, more economic disruption.
	And war all over the place, all over the globe.
	One cannot rule out an Israeli attack on Tehran, opening the door to Iranian attacks on both Israel and Saudi Arabia, regardless of the recent smiles at BRICS 11.
	Note that Israel is a nuclear power and Iran is very close to achieving the same status, hence one of the reasons why they have targeted Iran.
	The Biden administration, Some were critical of this deal, suggesting that it would encourage more hostage taking.
	Now they've got hundreds of hostages, and as a matter of fact, Hamas is saying, we've got enough hostages to spring out of prison every one of the Palestinians that Israel has got in prison.
	They got more than 5,000 in prison, because it's not going to be a one-for-one swap.
	The USS Gerald Ford is now being diverted toward the eastern Mediterranean to deter Hezbollah and Iran.
	But what deterrence can it provide ahead of an election year where everybody knows that Biden is afraid of another Mideast war?
	Oil was up 5% yesterday morning.
	Ukraine acknowledged...
	That this long war of attrition is being lost.
	You have four anti-Western African coups.
	You have civil wars in South Sudan and Ethiopia.
	You have war in Nagorno-Karabakh, the Armenians being attacked by the Muslims in that area.
	Fears of war in Kosovo, tensions in the South China Sea, a Middle East war now will accelerate the countries taking sides between a Russian-Iranian axis and a U.S.-Israel axis.
	And if the West doesn't back Israel, it'll be seen as weakness.
	But if it does back Israel, the global South, India and the Philippines aside, will see it as even more hypocritical.
	So, What do you think is going to happen with the Western economies?
	Writes Michael Avery.
	He said, will they respond with a mild increase in defense spending?
	Russia is already all in on a war economy.
	And that is likely to happen everywhere else.
	And of course, again, part of the rich man war scenario.
	People making a lot of money pushing a war.
	So... He said, those of you who thought that Hamas would not open these gates to hell did so on the assumption that a regular supply of dollars would buy geopolitical quiet.
	But that's not the case.
	And so we're going to take a quick break.
	And when we come back, we're going to take a look at the hostages aspect of this.
	Stay with us.
	We'll be right back.
	We'll be right back.
	We'll be right back.
	We'll be right back.
	And now, The David Knight Show.
	Well, on Rockfan, thank you very much for the tip, Risha.
	I appreciate that. And I just wanted to say, I'd be interested in what your comments are on any of this.
	So feel free to comment on Rockfan or on Rumble.
	I think that's what Travis is monitoring.
	And he just nodded his head yes.
	So let's talk a little bit about the hostage situation.
	Hamas says it's got enough Israeli captives to free all Palestinian prisoners.
	And understand, it's been a pretty big exchange rate.
	I mean, they can get a lot of bang for their buck, just as Iran did.
	When they're dealing with Israel or with the United States, you know, they get a lot more prisoners in return.
	And so a senior Hamas leader has said the group has captured enough Israeli soldiers during an unprecedented attack to make Israeli authorities free all Palestinian prisoners in its jails.
	So, you know, sometimes, regardless of whether Netanyahu was doing this deliberately or not, Perhaps things are even worse than he would have wanted them to be.
	Who knows? When you look at FDR, I think he was surprised at how devastating the attack was on Pearl Harbor.
	They got lucky in the sense that the aircraft carriers were out to sea, not really affected, because that was really the premier weapon of World War II. Not clear if they knew that at the time.
	They took out the battleships, which were not going to play an important, as important role as aircraft carriers anyway.
	And of course, it was the aircraft carriers that Japan used to launch the attack.
	But again, when you look at this, if they wanted to allow this type of attack, perhaps Netanyahu was not playing 4D chess.
	Maybe he didn't expect this many hostages to be taken.
	Who knows? Because he is now in a very difficult position.
	I would not want to be in the position of anybody in the Israeli government.
	They said, According to the latest figures by an NGO, there are nearly 5,200 Palestinians in Israeli jails, including 33 women, 170 minors, and more than 1,200 placed under administrative detention.
	And so, you know, when we look at this We've had situations, certainly, you go back to medieval wars, it was a regular strategy to try to capture the king, just like you see in chess.
	You didn't kill the king, you captured him because you wanted to use him as ransom.
	Go back to the Crusades and Richard Lionheart was captured and ransomed and that type of thing.
	But that's a legitimate objective if you want to do that for negotiating.
	But what they're doing now in terms of the beheading is not legitimate.
	It is savage.
	It is barbarian.
	And again, when you look at these different aspects of it, It is, we have to make a distinction between what is legitimate and justified, even in war.
	You need to try, since it's such a horrific thing, it does need to have some restraints put on it.
	But we've gotten past that now.
	And this is probably one of the best examples.
	Now you've had an Israeli soldier that has been beheaded, and they have done a video about it.
	And they're threatening to do that to a lot more hostages.
	And so, as Netanyahu is saying, they will use all their strength to totally destroy Hamas, told everybody to get out of Gaza, leave now, because we will operate forcefully everywhere.
	In other words, going to reduce it to rubble, essentially.
	He said, And so,
	as he's talking about this, Hamas has already thought about what they're going to do about this.
	They have massive underground networks.
	They have hostages. And the threat, as we mentioned before, Lindsey Graham said, well, if you bomb these areas, what we'll do is we'll execute hostages on video.
	And so this is the Hobson's choice that Netanyahu is now faced with, regardless of how this thing began.
	That's where we are right now.
	And when you look at the rhetoric online, I saw that Ben Shapiro was trending.
	I think it was Sunday when I looked at it.
	And he is, you know, he kept silent on Saturday.
	It was a It was a Sabbath.
	It was a Holy Day.
	That's one of the reasons why the attack happened then.
	He didn't say anything, but he was very busy on Sunday.
	And he was trending because he was just, you know...
	Calling for blood everywhere.
	And there is absolutely nothing that anybody could say to restrain any of this.
	And again, I just want to mention, this is the same government that just used its own citizens as Pfizer lab rats.
	And by the way, while we're talking about that, Ben, you were pushing people to become lab rats yourself!
	One of the people out there taunting everybody to take the jab, take the vaccine.
	And just let me say this.
	There's a lot of different ways that they can come after us, isn't there?
	Who do you think killed more people in just the last year or two?
	Hamas or Pfizer?
	Who was it that Ben Shapiro was shilling for?
	Hamas or Pfizer? So there's ethnic aspects of this.
	There's hatred, there's racism, and all the rest of the stuff.
	But you want to look at who's really doing the killing.
	You want to look at who's really doing the cleansing.
	The thing about Pfizer is they're worse than Hamas by a long shot.
	And I'm serious when I say that.
	You talk about terrorizing people.
	That was an aspect of it.
	Blackmailing? Yeah, you take this or we're going to destroy your life, that type of thing.
	It's a form of terrorism.
	Biden is a terrorist.
	Pfizer is a terrorist. Trump is a terrorist.
	The difference is, they're cleaner and they're more devious.
	They didn't get blood everywhere.
	And they're poisoners.
	You know, the poisoners are some of the worst, most disgusting murderers out there.
	And that's the category of Trump, Biden, and Pfizer, and Moderna, Fauci, the poisoners.
	You know, they are the people who will kill you and then buy.
	I wasn't there when he died.
	I don't know how that happened, you know.
	The type of people who put arsenic in their victims' food for a period of time.
	And then they just die. I don't know how that happened.
	In response to the Hamas attack, the Israeli military said that it launched strikes against 17 military compounds and locations connected to Hamas' leadership in Gaza.
	Now think about that. So, after the attack, the Israeli military launched strikes against 17 military compounds and locations of even the leadership.
	They know where the leadership lives in Gaza.
	So they knew where all these were.
	So the Israeli military knew where these 17 military compounds were.
	The Israeli military knew where these leaders were, but they didn't know anything about any of this preparation.
	Completely caught them off guard in this little 140 square mile area that's there.
	They couldn't figure out what was going on there.
	So they knew where these people were, but evidently during all this planning and stage and everything, they weren't watching them at all.
	But then immediately when this all happens, they go back and they take out these places?
	Yeah, like I said, you know, Pearl Harbor, 9-11, these are appropriate analogies to this stuff.
	On Rumble, thank you very much, RCF2020. Thank you for the tip.
	He says, great analysis, David.
	Can you tell us how Hamas was formed?
	I don't know the history of Hamas.
	I know it's Palestinians who are in the area, just like Hezbollah.
	You know, these are when the State of Israel was created and the Palestinians started spreading out.
	You know, nobody wants them.
	The Saudis don't want them because they see what happened in Lebanon, a civil war that was there.
	And then these groups, these organized terrorist groups like Hezbollah, taking over parts of Lebanon.
	In terms of Hamas, I don't know how that got started except just as part of that relocation.
	So, yeah, I don't know.
	That's what I'm saying.
	I'm not an expert on the Middle East by any means.
	I'm just trying to put this in the context of what does this mean, first of all, for global war, for global austerity, for the global agenda to impoverish us and to take everything from us.
	And, of course, the Great Reset, it's necessary for them to do that in the context of war.
	It's also necessary for them to, if they want to get us into a life like you see people living in Gaza, you know, they've got to do that Great Reset.
	And that is the hell on earth that they want for all of us.
	And it's a big part of their Great Replacement Program.
	Moving people around, putting ethnic groups in conflict with each other, So, on Rockfin, John Henry 377 says, my wife's dad is probably on his fifth COVID booster and just tested positive for?
	You got it, COVID. What a joke.
	Yeah. And quite frankly, I've said this from the very beginning.
	I think that, you know, what they're testing for.
	If the tests even work, if the tests aren't preloaded, and we saw a lot of tests that came from China that were preloaded with this stuff.
	And Handy, who was working EMS in Atlanta, he said, yeah, we saw, we had a situation where one nurse took out, or I don't know if he witnessed it, or somebody told him who witnessed it, said took one of these COVID tests, just opened it up and ran through it and tested positive, and it was sealed.
	So does any of this stuff matter? But it also may be that, you know, it's maybe testing for what they're injecting you with, right?
	And as we're now seeing, any respiratory illness, any seasonal flu, anything like that, it's going to be diagnosed as COVID. None of that stuff is going away.
	They're just adding more stuff to us with all these wars.
	So, Israel remains the Mideast's most formable force, supplied with some of the most advanced drones, other weapons from Israel's technology sector and from the U.S., which provides Israel with, listen to this, $3.8 billion in annual military assistance.
	Now, that's chump change compared to what is happening with Ukraine, of course.
	But what is interesting about this was I just saw that the Biden administration, Is spending more than 4 billion.
	It's like 4.3. I don't have the article right here in front of me.
	But it's like 4.3 billion dollars to push LGBT everywhere.
	Setting up classes to talk about, well, here's the history of LGBT leaders in Ireland, for example.
	They're spending money to push the LGBT agenda, the transgender agenda primarily, focusing on kids.
	They're spending more on that.
	Everybody talks about, oh, look at how much money Israel is getting.
	Well, they're spending more money to push the LGBT agenda.
	There. Which is not to say that, you know, it doesn't matter.
	I mean, $3.8 billion is a lot of money.
	I don't think there ought to be any foreign aid for any of this stuff, frankly.
	I've always had that position for anybody.
	I'm not just saying Israel.
	And I certainly don't think that we ought to be spending even more money on this cultural war, world war that we're doing.
	And think about how God views us.
	As we are the seminaries of Satan, you know, pushing this stuff on everybody, pushing this stuff on kids.
	And it's not just Hollywood, as perverse and wicked as Hollywood is.
	It's also the American government itself.
	And we pay taxes for that.
	But again, when you look at all of this stuff and the fact that they knew we're all of these, you know, going to hit 17 camps and we're going to take out the homes of the leadership and all of a sudden, They knew where all that stuff was.
	It just underscores the fact that, along with their big military budget and their superior weapons and some of the most advanced weapons on Earth coming out of Israel, they're designing a lot of weapons for us that we buy.
	But they didn't know what was happening in Gaza, right?
	The Israeli military has conducted frequent raids in Palestinian cities and in refugee camps, with bloody confrontations ensuing with well-armed militants.
	The army also flooded southern Israel with ground troops to manage the incursion, until, as the one person who worked with Israeli intelligence, a veteran, she said, they moved everybody out just before this happened.
	So, you know, it's just amazing to me to look at this, and I think that the Pearl Harbor analogy that everybody keeps using, I think that is exactly what's going on.
	So now you've got Hamas threatening to execute Israeli prisoners if Israel keeps bombing civilians in Gaza.
	Again, when you talk about the Geneva Convention and other things like that, the Geneva Convention grew out of the Christian idea for a justified war.
	The idea that if somebody is a soldier, you capture somebody in uniform, You accord them fair treatment.
	It is a war crime.
	It is a moral outrage.
	It is a sin, if you will, to execute prisoners in uniform.
	I mean, just look at the times that we know about that that happened in American history.
	World War II. The story of the Great Escape, you know, where these people have escaped over and over again.
	And then the escape that's in that story, most of the guys that they finally captured from that Great Escape took them out into a field and machine-gunned them.
	That's a war crime.
	And we condemn that.
	But, you know, even in Nazi Germany, they didn't film it and broadcast it around the world, what they were doing.
	And that's what Hamas is doing.
	That's what I'm saying. We're sinking to new levels of depravity and barbarity and all of this stuff.
	And that's where there is no equivalence in any of this stuff.
	Provocation? Yes.
	Proportional? No. Not at all.
	Not even close.
	The Kwasam brigades of Hamas have vowed to execute Israeli prisoners if Israel keeps bombing and killing civilians in Gaza.
	In a live interview with Al Jazeera Arabic on Monday, quote, any targeting of innocent civilians without warning will be met regretfully by executing one of the captives in our custody, and we will be forced to broadcast this execution.
	Forced to broadcast it.
	Give me a break.
	So, we regret this decision, but we hold the Zionist enemy and their leadership the responsibility for this.
	Well, you know, all I can say is, you know, this label of Zionism and all the rest of this stuff.
	You can believe that God is at work here and still not support the state of Israel.
	You understand? You can support Jewish people and still not support the state of Israel.
	I don't support the state of Israel.
	I don't support the state of America.
	It's just that simple.
	I think anybody would be a fool to support their own government after what we've been through over the last three and a half years.
	Or any political party.
	They've all got blood on their hands.
	They've all taken a stab at us.
	All the parties in every country.
	So one congressman has come out and commented and said they need to be eradicated.
	And quite frankly, I agree with him.
	I agree for Hamas, but not for the Palestinians.
	And this is where I think the different groups that are out there protesting this get this wrong.
	There is this kind of tribalism.
	That you either support everything that the Palestinians do and nothing that Israel does, or vice versa.
	You support everything that Israel does and nothing that the Palestinians do.
	You want to kill all the Jews or you want to kill all the Palestinians.
	No. Hamas is putting their own people at risk.
	Israel is putting their own people at risk.
	The U.S. government is putting its own people at risk.
	We need to stop falling in lockstep behind these people.
	It never ceases to amaze me.
	You know, I said before, when we went to China, I was expecting, I was not expecting after, you know, and this was before Xi started bringing back Maoism and that type of thing.
	But I was really amazed at all of the Mao worship.
	Massive flags and posters and stalls selling his little red book and all kinds of pictures of him and all the rest of the stuff.
	You know, people go out and buy that and put posters and pictures of Mao in their little homes.
	And they don't hold him responsible for the great reset forward, for the massive starvation that he did to establish his power.
	Just like they don't do that with Stalin.
	Just like we don't do that with Lincoln.
	It's amazing to me that the people who get you involved in...
	It seems like the worse the war...
	The more people idolize the person that got them involved in it.
	And so, yes, these people are rabid dogs.
	And just like a serial killer, it's not really of interest at the moment, you know, how Ted Bundy got that way or how Hamas got that way.
	They need to be put down.
	If they're going to act like this, there is no equivalence for terrorism.
	These people are rabid animals.
	You can talk about, well, how did that animal get rabies?
	I don't know, but we've got to stop it right now and put it down.
	And that's the issue with Hamas.
	It is a rabid organization, and it needs to be put down.
	That comment was from a Republican senator.
	I forget his name here. But again, to contrast that with what Lindsey Graham is saying, In terms of, well, this is an opportunity for us to blow up Iran's oil supplies.
	I've wanted to do that for a long time.
	Yeah. That's what that's about.
	He wants a bigger war.
	He wants even more deaths of innocent people.
	Okay. I want to read a couple of comments here, then we'll take a break.
	And when we come back, we're going to talk about public reactions of various people and of various groups to this.
	I think that is something that is very important because we have to understand, you know, what the people around us are thinking and what they're like and how our society has been transformed.
	And again, that all feeds into the aspect of, you know, are we properly prepared for what may be coming our way?
	On DLive, Contrafact says, is Taiwan next?
	And how will it develop with Ukraine, Taiwan, and Israel war fronts?
	Yeah, who knows? I mean, it is...
	You know, if we get very busy...
	He's talking about Israel having three fronts.
	What about the U.S. and its carrier groups and all the rest of the stuff?
	And we're already stretched in terms of war production and sending money and weapons to Ukraine.
	Again, I think these people want a world war.
	And so you've got Ukraine, you've got...
	Taiwan, and now you've added Israel, all these hot spots, and they could all erupt all at once.
	That's what I'm saying. We're really sitting on top of an active volcano right now, worldwide.
	On Rockfin, CJ's Herkybird.
	Lincoln started the concept of total war.
	Yep. He unleashed Sherman to ravage the South, to burn, maim, starve, destroy shelters, and to kill off livestock, to starve out the population in a punitive campaign.
	You're absolutely right. Absolutely right.
	That was something that, again, you've seen that in ancient history.
	You saw it in other civilizations.
	Rome, Greece, other places like that.
	And in smaller civilizations that we don't know as well.
	That was still present in them.
	That total war. That total, you know, you go in and you take no prisoners, you destroy the area, you murder the men, you rape the women, and you kill the kids and all the rest of the stuff.
	That is something that has always been there.
	We tried to pull that back When we had Christian civilizations, you know, war is, you don't want to have a war.
	And of course, there's two different ways to look at it.
	You have some Christians who are total pacifists and said it's never justified under any circumstances.
	But those who believe that it was justified in order to protect innocent life, in order to stop the killing, came up with the ideas of just war.
	And those were things that had been in place for a very long time, conventions that were flaunted by Lincoln.
	And then continue to be flaunted in the subsequent wars, especially World War II. And now nobody even pretends to pay any attention to them.
	We attack people before they attack us.
	Because, you know, they might attack us.
	So we've got to get them first.
	The same logic that was used by the Japanese to justify their attack.
	On Rumble, perfectly effed up.
	Thank you for the tip.
	He says thank you. On Rockfin, Amir says, 75 years of looting and killing cannot be responded to with kindness.
	The American public was almost killing each other over toilet paper not long ago.
	Yeah, I agree. And that's why I said, you know, when we look at this, we need to think about what our response is going to be.
	Because when you look at what happened in Gaza, it is exactly what they want to do to us.
	And if we understand it, I think that is our best defense.
	But once they get us into that position, which is the situation that the people are in in Gaza, there really isn't much to do.
	And so they see it as an existential fight.
	And I understand that.
	But, again, it's not to say that you respond with kindness.
	But I think that there are other ways that it can be attacked.
	And I think that, you know, it isn't so much my concern to win a war as it is to win the approval of God.
	And so we have to play by his rules.
	And it doesn't mean necessarily that you turn the other cheek, although that has been in the past a very effective strategy for Gandhi and for others.
	It depends on the society that you're operating in as to whether or not that's going to be successful.
	But again, we don't measure success as to whether or not we get our way or even whether we win a war because we're in a bigger battle that has eternal consequences for each and every one of us and that should govern our conduct in these matters, not whether or not we're going to win.
	Because if we do it that way, Then we go back into the end justifies the means.
	And then there are no restraints on anyone.
	And I think we all lose when that happens.
	So when we come back, we're going to have some reactions from various corners of American society.
	Stay with us.
	We'll be right back.
	We'll be right back.
	We'll be right ��
	��
	�� Liberty.
	It's your move.
	And now, The David Knight Show.
	All right, welcome back.
	Let's talk a little bit about the allies of Hamas and the opponents of Hamas and how the battle lines are being drawn up in societies around the world, all over this.
	It's kind of interesting.
	The lines are being drawn.
	There's so much more.
	And again, this goes back to Christians are not surprised to see Jerusalem at the epicenter of everything.
	This little area there.
	A lot stronger feelings about this even than about the Russia-Ukraine thing.
	Even with all of the push by the mainstream media, there is this visceral feeling that is stirred up with everybody about what is happening in Jerusalem and in Israel.
	Women's groups, however, are silent on the kidnappings and the sexual violence that happened in Israel.
	And of course, many people say, well, you know, there's silence about what is happening to the people in Gaza, but that is still, it's not an equivalent thing.
	This is terrorism. This is like home invasions.
	Taken to the extreme.
	Several international women's rights organizations have remained silent as terrorists killed and sexually assaulted numerous Israeli women in the attack over the weekend.
	Hamas began executing and kidnapping Israeli men, women, and children and the elderly.
	The total body count is continually going up.
	Hundreds are dead.
	I've seen different reports, but again, it's changing constantly.
	The last two days, hundreds of Israeli women have been slaughtered in their homes, kidnapped, tortured.
	They could be your mothers, daughters, sisters.
	This is the depraved and savage face of Hamas.
	And I agree with that.
	There is no justification.
	I'm sorry, there is no justification for that type of thing.
	That is not war.
	That is cowardice. And our forefathers would have never tolerated that type of thing.
	War is one thing. Terrorism is another thing altogether.
	And so you still have these women organizations, Equality Now.
	We believe that equality for women begins with justice for girls, and yet, you know, they're planning their International Day of the Girl Child yesterday, and was when they had it.
	And they're completely silent about what is going on.
	The Women's International League for Peace and Freedom, silent.
	Global Fund for Women, silent.
	The Global Fund for Women, by the way, is not silent about blaming Israel and the military occupation for gender-based violence.
	They said they have an entire section of the website dedicated to gender-based violence against Palestinian women, girls, and gender non-conforming people.
	But again, they don't see any connection or problem with what happened over the weekend.
	Hamas terrorists attacked the rave early Saturday in pickup trucks, killing over 200 people, according to the Tablet magazine.
	Many women were brutally assaulted next to the dead bodies of their fellow concertgoers before being executed themselves, while others were paraded through Gaza Strip.
	Taken as hostages.
	And as we look at various people, it's kind of interesting to see the squad reacting as you would expect, to see Andrew Tate acting as you would expect.
	We're talking about somebody who is no friend to women.
	Andrew Tate has, he says, well, I don't claim to know what is going on there.
	I'm just supporting the Palestinians.
	And so he's going to give money to the Palestinians, saying he's going to help the starving kids.
	And I understand, as I said before, this is not an unprovoked attack.
	They're provocations.
	And the provocations are the sanctions.
	Sanctions are an act of war.
	But you understand there's different levels, you know.
	With sanctions...
	It is an act of war.
	And then you take it to the next level.
	That is, you know, an escalation.
	And you go from sanctions to terrorism.
	That is a couple of orders of escalation.
	And it's also something that I don't believe is ever justified under any circumstances.
	You may disagree. If you disagree, let me know.
	Andrew Tate said on his recent Rumble podcast that there's no good guys, no bad guys in the war, since they were all a mess.
	I agree with that. He included that he does not know much about the conflict itself, but he assured that there's a lot of children who are hungry in the streets.
	Well, see, here's the thing, you know, he can see that there's innocent children who are being put at risk and who are starving and that type of thing.
	And I think he would agree that the children are innocent.
	You know, you could say they're good guys, right?
	I think you could say the same thing about people just living in their homes, and they're attacked by terrorists, beaten, murdered, raped, whatever, because of the actions of Netanyahu or some Israeli government.
	Does that justify beating them?
	I don't think it does, any more than it justifies starving children, because you don't like the politics of the people running the Gaza Strip.
	Anyway, he's going to take some of the money that he's made from exploiting women with pornography, and he's going to donate it to Palestinian kids.
	What a philanthropist he is, just like Bill Gates.
	I love these philanthropists.
	You've got to ask yourself how these guys got their money.
	You might want to ask yourself how Andrew Tate got his money.
	You're going to give $200,000, he said, in donation to the kids of Palestine.
	But no sympathy for the people who were murdered by the terrorists.
	I guess they deserved it, according to Andrew Tate.
	And you have people saying that all over the world, in Sydney and London and other places.
	Massive protests in Sydney, Australia.
	A big crowd of Palestinians shouting Allahu Akbar.
	How did we get big crowds of Palestinians there?
	Well, the Great Replacement.
	That's how you get big crowds of people in these various places.
	And that is by design.
	In London, Scotland Yard was urged to intervene...
	As video showed, people waving Palestinian flags, beeping car horns, and clapping, and approval of the terrorism that was happening in Israel.
	You know, I've said before, I mentioned Speaker's Corner, something Karen and I really enjoyed.
	We went to London three times, once on our anniversary, our wedding, we got married, our honeymoon, 1980.
	Then we went back again in 1984, and then in 2001, we took our sons with us.
	And one of our favorite things to do is to go to Speaker's Corner, see free speech, and see people interacting.
	Yeah, it was great. Live, you know, right there.
	People get their little soapbox, literally.
	Stand up there in the corner.
	And you would have, you know, when we were there in the 1980s, they had Bobbies who were not, didn't look like the modern cops that they have now that look like American police with guns and things like that.
	No, the Bobbies were there, you know, moving in pairs and they didn't carry guns.
	And if somebody would, they would protect the speaker from anybody who disagreed with them.
	Because, you know, people get up there, they typically would talk about religion and politics, the kind of stuff I talk about here.
	That gets people really upset.
	And so they would protect the people who were speaking on Speaker's Corner.
	They do it on Sunday, Sunday all day, I think, pretty much.
	We go in the afternoons and stuff.
	So they would protect them.
	And we enjoyed that when our first two trips there in the 80s.
	And then when we went back with our kids in 2001, there were situations where you had a lot of Muslim men would get around somebody who was talking about religion, Christianity.
	security.
	uh, they didn't just jeer, they started getting really angry, and, and so we were one of these, and, um, I noticed that all of a sudden there was a bunch of Bobbies that were starting to come in there.
	And they're talking on their radios to each other.
	And the crowd is getting increasingly agitated over the religious statements that were being made by this one person.
	And they were not anything, you know, he wasn't saying, you know, you're a bunch of scumbags and I hate you and you go back to where you came from.
	It wasn't anything like that. It wasn't anything hateful.
	He was talking about his Christian beliefs and they were taking exception to that, getting very angry.
	And so I said, all right, it's time for us to leave.
	I don't know what's going to happen here, but we're in the middle of it.
	And now, you know, you have the situation in the UK where they arrest the Christians.
	Instead of protecting them, if there's a crowd there that doesn't like what they're saying.
	And so it has now gotten to this point, and again, it is the massive redistribution of people that is a part of their long-standing plan that they've had for quite some time.
	On Rakhvan, Rose, Al-Arifia, Palestinians in Gaza protested peacefully in 2020, but snipers targeted them.
	Well, I didn't know that.
	But again, that ought to be condemned.
	And of course, you don't hear that type of thing from the Western press.
	I have not seen that.
	So, I don't support that.
	I would not justify that.
	I think that needed to be exposed and punished.
	And I don't think, though, that because that happened, that we continue to celebrate that.
	In other words, what happened, I don't know, I didn't see people taking to the streets and celebrating that when that happened in 2020.
	What happened was the mainstream media covered it up for the governments that were doing it.
	And so, if that's the case, and again, I've not seen that before.
	So, this is an ex-NBA star.
	Now, his father is Israeli.
	He's black, but his father is Israeli.
	And he takes exception to BLM supporting Hamas.
	He says, the idea that BLM is going to come out, he says, so I woke up this morning and I saw Hamas kidnapping children, putting them in cages, killing women, killing the elderly.
	That is some coward excrement, he said.
	That is cowardly.
	And he says, for all you all Black Lives Matter supporters who ain't saying nothing, well, let me figure out exactly what's happening before I'm going to say anything.
	He says, well, F you, he said.
	Figure out what?
	It has never been cool to kidnap kids and to put them in cages.
	It's never been cool to kill women and the elderly.
	I'll say if there were sniper attacks, killing people in Gaza, that's not cool.
	It's not anything that is to, we don't have to think about that to condemn that.
	Whoever did that, and again, you can look at who benefits from that and try to guess as to who was behind it.
	But again, not even reported.
	And that's another aspect of this.
	The one-sided reporting that we get out of things.
	But that's not to say that either of these events are to be excused or tolerated, and one of them does not justify the other.
	Because again, they will come back and I would imagine if you catch these snipers, they will say, well, we did that because in the past somebody did that to somebody on our side.
	We have to break that cycle of violence, first of all.
	But one of the things we do is not get drawn into it ourselves and that we never accept that as being justified.
	Shooting people as a sniper, shooting a crowd and protesters as a sniper is never justified.
	Going into somebody's home and killing them is never justified.
	Never. Never.
	I don't care if it's some mob out of some Democrat city that goes in the suburbs and starts killing people or they go into some home and start killing somebody in the city.
	It's never justified. They'll try to justify it by saying, well, you know, we had a deprived childhood.
	I didn't have equal opportunity.
	I was victimized because of my ethnic identity or whatever.
	I'm sorry. None of that justifies that.
	It doesn't justify.
	And all that does is it does justify for some people It says, well, I guess we're right to deny these things to you because you're an animal, you're subhuman, that type of thing.
	It backfires when you do that type of thing.
	And it should. So again, this guy is an NBA player.
	He also blasted politicians like Rashida Tlaib.
	Remaining silent for a long time and then showing sympathy for Hamas.
	He said, all you politicians have something to say the contrary.
	He says, I see you.
	He said, you know, F you.
	He said, all you Black Lives Matter people who always have something to say, always support it.
	Everything else, you're quiet now.
	But see, we have to understand that That people like The Squad, people like Black Lives Matter, are the people who always supported urban riots, that even targeted innocent people, and even destroyed their own community.
	You know, there's a commonality here in all of this that we need to be able to see here.
	And you need to understand that people, just as we're seeing right now, People like the Squad, who supported violent looting and arson and things like that with Black Lives Matter, they now support this in Israel.
	They support terrorism, looting, arson, violence, directed at people who didn't do it.
	You know, Black Lives Matter doesn't have the backbone to go in.
	If they got a beef with the police, they don't have the backbone to go in and attack the police station, do they?
	What do they do? They burn down businesses in their own neighborhood.
	They attack people, innocent people, dragging them out of their vehicles and beating them or killing them.
	That's a cowardly response to this.
	It is a kick-the-dog response that doesn't solve any problems.
	They don't have the courage to stand up to people.
	You know, it takes a lot more courage sometimes to stand up to somebody without violence when there's violence being committed, doesn't it?
	So anyway, some of the other responses from people.
	The Democrat Socialists of America are cheering Hamas.
	Again, people like the Marxists, the Socialists, the Black Lives Matter, they don't see a problem with terrorism.
	Terrorism has always been part of what they do.
	Going back to the French Revolution, going back to the Russian Revolution, They're fine with terrorism.
	They don't follow the tenets of a just war.
	They don't follow God.
	They're godless atheists who have no morality.
	And so, of course, they embrace terrorism.
	That's what I've been trying to point out.
	We don't want to fall into that.
	We don't want to see the end justifies the means.
	That's a Marxist, socialist, Black Lives Matter type of thing.
	So the Democrat Socialists of America, on Sunday, the day after the attack, hosted an, quote, All Out for Palestine event in Times Square, New York.
	The New York Post reported via an op-ed attributed to its editorial board, they said that the Democrat Socialists of America supporters were urged to, quote, wear a mask so that you're not recognized.
	So, again, why do you need to wear masks so that you're not recognized?
	What are you planning on doing?
	Kylie Jenner, part of the Cardassian thing, deletes a pro-Israel post amid heat from followers.
	See, there's a lot of pressure to support one side or the other.
	Everybody feels it, don't they?
	Talking publicly, as I am talking publicly, there's a lot of pressure to support one side or the other.
	I feel like Treebeard.
	Well, I'm not altogether on anybody's side because nobody is on my side.
	That's the way I feel about this.
	I'm not jumping in on the side of any government or any quasi-government or any terrorist organization.
	I'm not going to jump in on the side of any of those people.
	Wars are bad enough.
	Terrorism is even worse than war.
	So again, this is very much like what you see in Operation, just like the hate of that Egyptian cop.
	Who immediately shoots Israeli terrorists.
	And when we come back, we're going to take a look at some personal stories.
	Personal stories from both sides of the conflict.
	We'll be right back. Analyzing
	The Globalist's Next Move.
	And now, The David Knight Show.
	The David Knight Show.
	Thank you.
	News and talk about some domestic issues, politics and other things like that.
	Just to put a face on what terrorism looks like.
	And again, if you've got people that are being assassinated or killed by Israelis, we're going to talk about that as well here.
	But of course, over the weekend, we had an Israeli family of five, including three young kids murdered by Hamas after they took shelter in a safe room.
	Israeli family of five, including twin six-year-old girls and their four-year-old brother.
	were killed by Hamas a short time after their mom messaged friends, but they took refuge in a bomb shelter.
	So at first, you know, they were under attack with the, again, you know, the Iron Dome didn't seem to be working out.
	I mean, it could be instead of it being a stand down, it could be that it was overwhelmed with a sheer quantity of missiles because that had come close to happening once before.
	And, you know, these anti-missile systems, they're a lot more expensive than Then the rocket's just being shot into residential areas.
	And so there's always a possibility that that can happen.
	So that might have been what had happened.
	Nevertheless, they were in bomb shelters, and they corresponded to friends in Sydney, Australia.
	The mother was 35 years old.
	But then she stopped responding after they tried to continue to ask her what the condition was there.
	And eventually they found out.
	That the entire family had been killed as the terrorist had breached the safe room and slaughtered the family in cold blood.
	And again, how do you justify this?
	Two six-year-old girls, four-year-old brothers.
	To me, when you look at war like this...
	And the savagery that we see with the Roman Empire and things like that, that was up close and personal, right?
	You didn't have any murder at a distance.
	It wasn't even the kind of distance that you would have with snipers or somebody shooting a gun at a long distance.
	It was right up close, murdering people.
	And that, I guess, is what is so shocking for us.
	You know, when you look at bombs and rockets, as we started attacking And again, you know, it had happened, as the listener pointed out, in the Civil War.
	It was a policy of Sherman to do total war.
	But it became common practice on both sides during World War II. With bombs, with rockets.
	You can always imagine that that is accidental.
	You can always try to distance yourself from it mentally because you're so far distant from it in terms of the actual murder.
	But these types of close-up murder performed by these terrorists is, again, another part of this situation.
	Rabid, inhuman response, I think, wedded now with technology that we have in the 21st century.
	You know, you go back and you look at London, the Blitz, you look at what happened in Dresden.
	These were, in a sense, it was total war, certainly.
	Completely devastating, Dresden and other places like that.
	But people would always take a distance to it.
	It became commonplace, and now, again, we don't try to distinguish civilians from combatants in uniform, but it is especially heinous when you see it being done with children.
	As a matter of fact, Travis, pull up a picture, show people that article there in the individual stories of the family of five that was murdered there.
	And one of these cases, one woman survived, an elderly woman and her husband, grandmother.
	She outsmarted the Hamas terrorists in her home.
	She was able to delay them killing her.
	Rachel and David survived a harrowing 20-hour ordeal holed up with four terrorists in their own home.
	The gunman aimed his rifle at the elderly couple in their home in southern Israel early Saturday morning.
	He held a grenade at her head and screamed Allah Akbar and announced that he was a martyr.
	But she kept her composure.
	And so the first thing she did was to buy time.
	She offered them refreshments and later a meal.
	Are they sure she's not Italian?
	I don't know. That's like...
	Manja, manja.
	Engaging them in small talk, playing for a time until security personnel could arrive.
	For the next 20 hours, Rachel and her husband David underwent a harrowing ordeal with five Palestinian terrorists holed up in their home.
	She says, I don't know how I'm alive.
	She said, they had, again, gone to a shelter...
	When the rockets were hitting, the initial rocket blast.
	And then when they came back home, they noticed that one of the bedroom windows had been broken out.
	And first thing, she thought that it was from bombs or something.
	But then they were suddenly surrounded by five men who had snuck in during the rocket attack.
	And they took them inside the home.
	She said, my first thought was that of my two sons, because they're in the police forces, she said.
	But thankfully, they were not home.
	They would have been murdered first.
	They were armed with a rocket launcher.
	They placed her grenade on her head and aimed their Kalashnikov rifles at her and her husband, ordering them inside.
	She said, I started to talk to them.
	Have you had something to drink? Would you like some tea or coffee?
	Meanwhile, an elite police force had arrived outside their home, accompanied by her police officer's son, who had gotten word of the attack and rushed to his parents' house.
	No, said one of the terrorists, we will all die.
	When there was an offer for him to speak to his family by phone, she said it was like we were in a dream.
	We didn't know what would happen to us.
	As time passed, she was concerned that her captors would get agitated as a result of hunger, and so she offered them lunch.
	If they were hungry, that would have been the end of me and my husband, she said.
	Undeterred by the ever-present danger, she began to talk to her captors, asking them where they were from and trying to dissuade them from their planned murder.
	I told them, don't do it.
	We are brothers, she said.
	No, I am Shahid, said one of the terrorists, the Arab word for martyr, and he pointed his gun at her husband.
	He said, Rachel, they're going to shoot us.
	And he was totally helpless, she said.
	Meanwhile, outside the house, a gun battle ensued, leaving one of the captors who had stepped out dead, but four remained inside.
	As afternoon wore on, she offered to bandage the injured hand of one of the terrorists, and seeking to soothe him, brought him water as well as some canned pineapple.
	She said, You look pallid.
	Take something to eat.
	You'll feel better. I didn't think we would make it, she said.
	I kept reading the Shema Yisrael from just outside the home.
	Her son had drawn a detailed diagram of the building's interior.
	He begged to join the team, but he was told that he could not.
	At night, she was near her husband on the couch with four terrorists less than two feet away.
	And in the early morning hours, the rescue team, aided by a drone and by the outline of the house that their son had drawn, burst into the home through the roof with a special rescue dog killing all four terrorists.
	She escaped unscathed, her only injury, an inadvertent scratch from the dog.
	And so, you know, when you look at this, There's a couple of different sides to this if you think about it, right?
	These guys have been hyped up by Hamas, their leaders, to go in and kill everybody.
	But they just couldn't find it in them to do it, which I think is interesting.
	I think it's also interesting how she engaged their humanity and helped to, I think, bring that out.
	Yeah, helping to any doubt that they may have had.
	I think by engaging them, she engaged the humanity that they had that Hamas was not able to get rid of.
	But then, you know, it is an act of war at that point.
	But they did not become terrorists.
	A very different story, isn't it?
	How does anybody explain the boosters and the rah-rah clubs that are crawling out of the woodwork for Hamas?
	Exactly. I mean, we're not talking about a situation where, you know, they come through the fence and lines and they go attack Israeli military installations.
	We're talking about a situation where they come through the fence and they attack people at a concert.
	And they rape and they kill at short distance.
	What these two guys did not want to do.
	The squad. Occasional cortex.
	Will not condemn the attack on Israel, merely pretending to be a peacemaker, solely targeting Israel's response.
	Again, if they had come in as an act of war and gone head-to-head with the Israeli police or the military, that would be a very different situation than when they come in and act as terrorists.
	It truly is amazing that AOC cannot condemn that.
	But, of course, they didn't condemn the riots of Black Lives Matter either.
	So she calls for a ceasefire in Israel.
	And, of course, Babylon Bee did a parody of that.
	A Japanese emperor calls for a ceasefire after Pearl Harbor.
	That's what their parody was.
	And that's basically what AOC was doing.
	She said, how much more blood needs to be spilled for you to overcome your prejudice and unequivocally condemn Hamas, a U.S.-designated terrorist organization?
	So, again, it is her base, the Socialist Democrats of America there in New York, that held their celebration on Sunday and told people to come wearing masks.
	That's her base of support there.
	Caitlin Johnstone, her article is, they keep repeating the word unprovoked again and again.
	This time, they use it in defense of Israel.
	How many times do we see the terms unprovoked attacks used by America?
	And yet how many times have we been engaged in preemptive strikes again?
	Again, it is not whether or not there is any provocation.
	She's right. In the sense that these attacks were provoked by the state of Israel.
	But they're not proportional.
	As I said earlier, you know, a neighborhood steals property from you.
	Your response should not be to go over and behead him.
	That's not a justified response.
	Even when we have a situation where somebody comes into your house, right?
	Anybody that has taken a carry class and understands legal implications, somebody comes into your home as a home invasion, you are entitled to defend yourself and take their life if necessary.
	But if they come in and, you know, you're in another room or whatever, you see somebody in there, they snuck in and they've got your TV and they're running out with your TV set, you can't shoot them in the back over that.
	There has to be proportionality in the way that we do these things.
	And there must be proportionality in this as well.
	Murder is not proportional to theft.
	That's why if you do that to somebody, you will rightfully stand trial for murder.
	If somebody is coming at you for your life and it's a self-defense situation, then you should not face trial for murder.
	And again, I understand that sanctions are an act of war, but terrorism, torture, murder, rape, those are beyond the appropriate responses to sanctions.
	Terrorism is never justified.
	And I think the reason I cover this is It's because we ought to be very concerned about the people who are justifying terrorism, the people in our midst, the people who are in Congress who are justifying terrorism.
	Terrorism can never be justified.
	It's not justified if Israel does it.
	It's not justified if Hamas does it.
	And I would condemn people on both sides who would justify terrorism.
	But again, got a whole collection of the word unprovoked, RFK Jr., This ignominious, unprovoked, barbaric attack on Israel must be met with the world's condemnation, he said.
	Lieutenant General Keith Kellogg, this is an unprovoked attack on civilians.
	Mike Pompeo, unprovoked aggression by Hamas terrorists.
	John Fetterman, I guess it'd be the people who write for him.
	I forcefully condemn these cowardly, horrifying, unprovoked attacks on Israel by Hamas.
	Senator Mark Kelly, these attacks by Hamas against Israel were heinous and unprovoked.
	And on and on. It goes on for page after page after page of people using that term unprovoked.
	I agree with her.
	It is not unprovoked.
	But neither is a response from Hamas justified.
	It is terrorism.
	And there is no other way about it.
	And again, when we talk about the provocation, as I showed earlier in the program, you know, the size of Israel versus, for example, Tennessee, and the fact that what they have set up there in Gaza is really what we should be concerned about.
	That is a good example of what a smart city looks like, where you have absolutely no freedom.
	It's what an American Indian reservation looked like, essentially.
	Kind of an open-air prison, where you don't have any ability to earn a living.
	You are dependent on them for universal basic income and for your very existence.
	And when that source of money dries up, As it did, especially in May.
	We talk about whether or not it's provoked or not.
	The UN's World Food Program, back in May, stopped aid to 200,000 Palestinian refugees from Israel in the Gaza Strip.
	Again, 140 square miles, between 2 and 2.5 million people there.
	They don't have jobs.
	They can't support...
	Dependent on food aid.
	And that got turned off in May.
	And so they've been pumping a couple million dollars into Gaza's economy each month, just like universal basic income.
	It is so basic, you can barely survive.
	And here's one story.
	Now, this is not from mainstream media.
	This is from Al Jazeera, done at the time that they were stopping this food aid in the Gaza Strip.
	A day of mourning, said the mother of the family, 200,000 Palestinian families lose UN food aid.
	Again, they're locked up in this smart city, open-air prison, and where everything is controlled, all their movement is controlled.
	I guess, you know, the 140 square miles is pretty close to a 15-minute city.
	But... It's, you know, overcrowding, no work, dependent on welfare.
	And then this woman that they talked to, Aisha, got a message on her mobile phone in early May.
	She said, hit her like a thunderbolt.
	Her monthly food voucher from the United Nations World Food Program was going to be stopped the next month.
	She said, I felt like my soul was leaving me, the mother of seven, whose husband is unemployed.
	This voucher used to cover my family's monthly basic food needs.
	I look forward to it at the beginning of each month.
	For a year and a half, Aisha's family has been receiving a food voucher from the World Food Program, the UN Program, worth $108 a month.
	$108 a month.
	And to lose that, this is the kind of poverty that she's in, to lose that.
	It's like, felt like my soul left me.
	I've got seven kids. I'm trying to feed this family off of $108.
	On May 11th, the WFP announced in a statement that by June, 200,000 people, almost 60% of the beneficiaries there, would no longer be receiving any food assistance.
	A few days later, she received from the WFP alert on her phone.
	Her house was destroyed.
	In the latest escalation in the Gaza Strip, on May 13th, in the afternoon, she was sitting with her children when she heard screams outside the house, calling for neighbors to evacuate their houses.
	I was very terrified, and I went out to see our relatives leaving their homes.
	They told me that the house opposite to us had been warned that it was going to be bombed.
	I immediately gathered my children, and we fled to our relative's house.
	After the house was bombed, Aisha, her husband, their children returned home to find it largely reduced to rubble as well.
	So this is a situation, as I said, you know, it's why it beggars belief that Israel didn't know that this was happening, because they were preparing, because they immediately launched 17 raids into areas that they said because they immediately launched 17 raids into areas that they said people were training in the homes of leaders and that type of They would call in and say, we're going to destroy this house here because it is part of the leadership or somebody who they designated as an enemy.
	So they give them fair warning and tell them to evacuate the area because they're going to destroy this person's home.
	But then they also destroyed her home as well.
	This is what they're living under.
	And again, you have to understand this, or it's going to continue to get deeper and deeper and escalate more and more.
	You've got to break this cycle.
	And nobody is putting pressure on the Israeli government to break this cycle, really.
	Except for the people who just rabidly hate Israelis and Jews.
	And that's what's got to stop.
	This polarization that has happened where people hate Israel so much that they will support terrorism, and that is never going to get any of these real legitimate complaints fixed.
	Who's going to stand in the gap?
	Well, certainly not any American politicians because they're too beholden to money from Israel and other things like that to ever step out and say anything about it.
	There's really not any constituency for it.
	And at this point, if you join that constituency, you are joining with the people who are supporting terrorism.
	I think really the people who need to lead in this are the people like AOC and others who are justifying the terrorist attacks.
	They need to pull back from that.
	I don't think they will.
	If they would condemn the terrorism, but then also condemn this type of action by the Israeli government, you know, knocking down their house and people around them.
	She said, I felt so heartbroken with tears in her eyes.
	She said, I feel the world has shrunk in front of our faces.
	We have no source of income.
	We lost the food voucher, which barely covered my children's food needs.
	And now we're losing our house.
	As I said at the beginning of the program, when I was looking at the Pentagon and its asymmetric warfare, and I did that because the Pentagon was practicing how they're going to fight us in the cities and the suburbs and in the rural areas.
	And so I was curious to see before we went to do an investigative report at one of their asymmetric warfare centers, the one that was in a place that they now renamed AP Hill.
	I don't know what they call it now.
	But anyway, when I was doing research on it, video after video, the Pentagon people said, you know what drives people of terrorism is this, exactly this.
	They said it's not the religion.
	The religion comes in later.
	It strengthens them. But when you have people who have no control over their destiny, they feel like everything has been taken away from them.
	They're hopeless. They're driven into a corner existentially.
	And you're going to have a certain percentage of people who are going to respond with terrorism.
	It's just a given. And they know this.
	The U.S. military knows it.
	The Israeli military knows it.
	They know that profile as well.
	So, you know, she and her husband have got college degrees that are completely worthless.
	She's got a degree in history.
	She's got a degree in psychology. So what?
	Do they know how to make anything?
	How to provide anything? You know, even if they had...
	Enough land there where they could have a small garden or something.
	They don't know how to do anything. They've been uselessly educated.
	That's another thing that we need to be aware of, a tactic that is being used against us.
	Again, take a look.
	We can't solve their problems.
	You know, there isn't anything that we can do to fix these problems there.
	I mention these problems not because I want to pick one side or the other, defend one group or condemn the other.
	I mention this because you've got to understand the same things that they're doing there.
	They want to do to us.
	And if you've got a degree in history and you've got a degree in psychology and psychological counseling and everything, good luck with that.
	As this is coming at us, you better learn car repair.
	You better learn how to grow food.
	You better learn some really practical stuff.
	In addition to some of these other things where maybe you can make some more money, fine.
	I'm not saying those are worthless now, but that's the trap that you can fall into.
	And so the unemployment rate there is 45%.
	45%.
	Two out of every three people Struggle to even be able to afford food.
	There are no job opportunities for young people and graduates.
	And this guy's trying to find, this is a different guy, he's trying to find work in construction, doing anything he can, even just as a porter, you know, trying to carry stuff.
	And so this is where they want to have us.
	They want to take everything away from us.
	They want to break us into this kind of cultural balkanization within our countries.
	And this is why I spend time on this.
	Not because we're going to be able to fix anything in Gaza or Israel.
	We can't. There isn't any consensus for anybody on either side that wants to fix it.
	The allies of Israel don't want to fix it.
	The allies of the Palestinians don't want to fix it.
	Instead, the Allies of the Palestinians are out there cheering terrorism.
	It's gotten to that point.
	We don't want to get to that point.
	We need to understand that they want this same life for us.
	Anyway, Aisha said, I hope this threatening decision will be considered.
	I almost go crazy when I think about how I can't feed my seven children.
	Welcome to life in Gaza, where hunger, poverty, and war come together.
	And, of course, that is the future, the 2030 future that they want for us.
	Finally, I'll mention one last thing, and then we'll get into some domestic news.
	Survivors of the Music Festival.
	Recount, they said it was like living through a four to five hour horror movie in real life.
	Left hundreds dead. Survivors said hundreds of dead bodies have been recovered.
	Others are believed to have been taken hostage by Islamist Palestinians.
	Approximately 3,000 people were at a concert in the desert there.
	Marking a Jewish holiday, the attack came as Palestine waged a series of surprise attacks during a holy day cycle.
	One emergency medic named Yaniv came to the scene of the atrocity, told a public broadcaster, there are at least 200 bodies of Israelis in the area that I was in.
	In just that one area. He said it was a massacre.
	I've never seen anything like it in my life.
	It was a planned ambush.
	As people came out of the emergency exits, squads of terrorists were waiting for them there and just started picking them off.
	Again, is that justified?
	Is that justified because perhaps somebody who was friendly, who was hostile to Hamas, maybe it was somebody from Assad who did it because they just picked people off?
	This is now justified?
	No. No.
	Neither of them are justified.
	But I was on the one hand breathing and saying, well, I'm going to die.
	It's just okay. Just breathe.
	Close your eyes, said one of the women who was hiding.
	She said she was hiding by a tree, hiding under a tree.
	So they were going tree by tree and shooting people.
	I saw people dying all around.
	She said... It was very, very close to me.
	Then I heard the terrorists open a big van and get more weapons from their car.
	They were in the area for three hours.
	It said no one was there.
	No one. Where are the firearms?
	Again, just as this sounds very much like a mass shooting in the United States, does it?
	You know, it's very easy for criminals or the criminally insane to get firearms.
	It always is. And if the government prevents people from owning firearms for their own protection, you see this again and again.
	Maybe there should be a waiting list for Hamas terrorists to get firearms.
	You think that would work? We'll take a real quick break, and when we come back, we have some firearm news we'll give you.
	Stay with us. Music The common man.
	They created common core to dumb down our children.
	They created common past to track and control us.
	Their commons project to make sure the commoners own nothing.
	And the communist future.
	They see the common man as simple, unsophisticated, ordinary.
	But each of us has worth and dignity created in the image of God.
	That is what we have in common.
	That is what they want to take away.
	Their most powerful weapons are isolation, deception, intimidation.
	They desire to know everything about us while they hide everything from us.
	It's time to turn that around and expose what they want to hide.
	Please share the information and links you'll find at TheDavidKnightShow.com Thank you for listening.
	Thank you for sharing. TheDavidKnightShow.com Alright,
	we were talking about weapons, and of course it's not just personal firearms to protect yourself.
	This was sent to me by Geese Busters.
	Thank you, Geese Busters. Scott Ritter.
	Are Hamas fighters using American weapons meant for Ukraine?
	And of course, Geese Busters was...
	Why is this guy being published by RT? Well...
	Because of the Iraq War, because he's a critic of the Iraq War.
	He's a critic of several of our foreign wars.
	He served as an inspector implementing the INF Treaty, served in the Soviet Union.
	He also served in General Schwarzkopf's staff during the Gulf War.
	And from 1991 to 1998, he was a U.N. weapons instructor, Scott Ritter, former U.S. Marine intelligence officer.
	And he begins by saying, throughout history, The perceived weapon of choice for a terrorist or for a freedom fighter, depending on one's perspective, has been an AK-47 assault rifle.
	Let me just comment on that again.
	You know, one person's terrorist is another person's freedom fighter, as the thing goes.
	Freedom fighters don't execute children up close and personal, intentionally, to strike fear into the heart of people.
	You see, that's the intention. We're going to rape women.
	We're going to kill children so we can strike fear in the heart of the population.
	That's terrorism by definition.
	Terrorism is achieving your social political goals by fear, by violence, that type of thing.
	That's why I believe and I called the Pfizer mandates and jabs and what was being done to people with the masks and the lockdowns and the social distancing and the vaccinations and all the rest.
	I call that terrorism. It was a campaign of fear.
	You're all going to die unless you do exactly as I say.
	Unless you put this mask on your face, you're going to die.
	I mean, you might as well be holding on to somebody's head doing that.
	But anyway, there is a difference between a terrorist and a freedom fighter.
	And it's not just your perspective.
	But anyway, he says it's typically been the AK-47.
	But today, in the aftermath of our, quote, global war on terror, it's not uncommon to see such fighters with a Glock 9mm or Colt M4 carbine.
	These are weapons paid for by the U.S. taxpayer and sent around the world to people like Zelensky, who was, you know, we've got U.S. weapons from Afghanistan now, ending up with Palestinian groups operating the Gaza Strip.
	How could they not?
	I mean, you look at the billions of dollars worth of weapons that were just left behind and abandoned by Biden.
	How could that not be the case?
	As a matter of fact, the Taliban is now asking for countries that are between them and Israel to give them safe passage so they can come and join the fight.
	Well, of course, they're going to be sending weapons as well.
	And weapons coming out of the Ukrainian arms bazaar that we have set up with our unlimited amounts of money sent there.
	All those weapons have been disappearing.
	Going back to the initial coup and the shelling of civilian population centers back in 2014.
	So there is, you know, nothing new at all about that.
	By the way, I didn't see this until we went to break.
	This is from Rose Alarifi.
	She said, what was the soundtrack of the last scene during the break?
	It sounded like a Revolutionary War period.
	She was talking about not this last one, but the one before that.
	That was from The Patriot.
	That's a John Williams song.
	He did the soundtrack to the Patriot.
	Patriot had Mel Gibson in it.
	And, you know, it's kind of interesting when you talk about it.
	There's a scene in there, of course, where Mel Gibson goes berserk.
	That's kind of his trademark of his action character sequences.
	You know, whether you're talking about lethal weapon or something, he actually goes berserk and just starts killing everybody in sight.
	And, of course, you know, that is...
	One of the things that happens in a war, again, that's a different thing, though, than terrorism.
	That was caught up in the heat of the moment, whereas the terrorism stuff is really pre-planned.
	But, yeah, that was from The Patriot, a Mel Gibson film.
	Without the Second Amendment, private gun ownership is very low in Israel.
	This is from Breitbart.
	As the world watches the atrocities of the past few days unfold, it is notable that Israel does not have any much private gun ownership amongst its citizens.
	The BBC reported that Israeli gun ownership is very low, only about 2% of the population.
	And so they said, because they don't have anything that recognizes their God-given right, and so the big difference in large part is the Second Amendment.
	The Second Amendment, of course, does not give us the right to keep and bear arms.
	That is our basic fundamental humanity.
	That is the American perspective on this.
	Our basic God-given rights as human beings.
	It just protects or should protect us from the government taking it away.
	Israelis are also limited to the type of firearms and the quantity of ammunition they can own.
	Well, just like they want to do in all the Democrat states.
	BBC observed, usually citizens are allowed to hold a pistol with a limit of 50 bullets.
	Well, that should be real helpful as you've got a massive terrorist coming at you.
	You've got 50 bullets.
	In all but the bluest states, Americans can own almost any gun imaginable, including machine guns.
	You can own machine guns if you want to pay the taxes and get the scrutiny.
	And they can have as much ammunition stored and ready as they can afford.
	Even leaving out machine guns and focusing on semi-automatic rifles, such as the AR-15s or the AK-47s.
	There are nearly 25 million such rifles in circulation in the U.S., according to the National Shooting Sports Foundation.
	Meaning that there are more AR and AK-style firearms in circulation in the U.S. than Ford F-Series trucks on the road.
	And, yeah, that is, when you look at what happened, that is a good thing.
	Add in all the pistols, revolvers, and lever-action rifles and shotguns, pump, single-shot, over, under, semi-automatic, etc.
	And the total number of privately-owned firearms in the U.S. is well over 434 million.
	But Israelis are limited to just handguns and only a certain number of bullets.
	You see? As I said before, Israeli government doesn't care about the Israelis.
	If they cared about them, they wouldn't have shot them up with Pfizer and used them as lab rats.
	If they cared about them, they wouldn't ban them from having guns for their own protection.
	They're not their friend. And I feel no compulsion to justify anything the Israeli government does or to support it in any way, shape, or form.
	University of Sydney's Gun Policy Center noted that in Israel, quote, the right to private gun ownership is not guaranteed by law.
	And so that is what you wind up with.
	You wind up with a situation where, as I said, the eyewitness reports of people who are at that concert, same type of situation as somebody coming into a school, shooting it.
	Because all of Israel is a gun-free zone, just like schools are.
	But again, in Egypt, he had a cop there, armed with a gun, and motivated by hate, he shot two Israeli tourists and killed an Egyptian, as well as wounding some other people.
	Because this was his opportunity to stand up and be counted, I guess.
	And so, Israel comes back, the Times of Israel comes back in defense of their gun control laws.
	Saying, comparing America to Israel on gun laws is dishonest.
	Is it? Why is it dishonest?
	No, the dishonesty is on the side of the times of Israel.
	The dishonesty is on the people who tell you that you should not be allowed to defend yourself and to make it difficult to do that.
	So, you know, they try to make excuses about this and...
	There is no excuse for that.
	It's interesting that we've just had Smith& Wesson has moved their headquarters to Tennessee.
	And they were in Massachusetts.
	Massachusetts didn't want them there.
	So they said, okay, well, Tennessee does.
	And so they just opened up over the weekend.
	And they had some gun control groups that showed up to protest.
	But the vast majority of people in Tennessee are more than happy to see them continue in business and continue in business here.
	We're going to take a quick break, and when we come back, we're going to take a look at some news.
	There's some news about Elon Musk's Neuralink chip, which I think you're going to find very interesting, as well as more domestic news.
	We've spent most of this time talking about what's going on in Israel.
	So we're going to move here back to home and talk about the immediate pressing things that are before us here.
	We'll be right back..
	The End
	In a world of deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.
	You're listening to The David Knight Show.
	Well, as we look at the latest plans of Elon Musk, of course, he's been able to get the FDA to approve his Neuralink.
	Is that any surprise? Do you think the FDA's got a problem with anything, anywhere?
	See no evil. Speak no evil of anything that any major corporation or billionaire wants to do.
	So he's got the go-ahead.
	He just needs to have the volunteers.
	Anybody want to volunteer for this?
	Not me. And as he's saying this, guess what?
	You've got some people talking about the risk that the neural link could be hacked.
	Now, this really would be a zombie apocalypse if they...
	Somebody hacks into your chip and they start controlling you to get you to do whatever they want.
	And so one person of an identity and access management software company, ForgeRock, yeah, that'd be your ultimate identity theft to hack your brain, says that Neuralink is going to have to have watertight anti-hacking systems in place from day one.
	Well, it better be watertight.
	Nobody wants to have a leaking skull here.
	But I think that's more than likely going to be the first issue, is going to be the leaking skulls.
	Reports from some of the monkey trials are coming out, because they did put some of these things on monkeys and they had some horrific results.
	They basically ruptured the brain.
	What a surprise. You put this chip on the...
	Goatree is involved in cybersecurity, but he wasn't really talking about the hacking aspect of it so much as he was.
	So think about this.
	You got this chip... That is sitting right there on your brain, and you're going to charge this thing wirelessly?
	What about the heat of this thing and all the rest of this stuff?
	Well, I think those are some legitimate medical concerns.
	But, of course, there's also the hacking aspect of it, because everything and anything can be hacked.
	We've seen this over and over again.
	F-35, which I'm sure was hacked.
	Or, you know, the financial systems to shut down pipelines or the air traffic control system to shut down all of the flights in America for a day.
	At the moment, the approach for Neuralink is to be an interface between the subject's brain and external devices, basically for them to control the computer via an app on their phone.
	So just sign right up.
	That's such a compelling thing.
	But they're going to try to use it For people who have paralysis and other things like that.
	And that's the way that they will make the case for it.
	And that's the way they'll get past people's concerns for the bigger issue here.
	And of course, Elon Musk has said from the very beginning that the bigger issue is, for him, the singularity.
	He wants to be a cyborg.
	He wants everybody to be a cyborg.
	He says that's the only way that we can compete with artificial intelligence is to join them.
	So it's kind of his join or die moment.
	But that is not the truth.
	And you need to be very concerned about anybody like Elon Musk or like Peter Thiel who has always pushed both of them.
	The singularity, merging of man and machine, and who have also pushed transhumanism, cyborg stuff, all the rest of that stuff.
	You need to be very concerned about anybody that pushes that.
	The hacking risk here sits with Neuralink.
	The hacker could potentially make it seem like the subject or the user is instructing something when they are not.
	And, of course, that is the big concern about the self-driving cars.
	Which they have just swept aside.
	The EU Digital Identity Wallet is now piloting, but it's rolling out under the radar.
	This is from Brownstone Institute.
	Again, when we get caught up in the bigger pictures, I think it was necessary to talk about what is happening in Israel-Palestine, especially because it does have bearing on what they want to do to us and our society.
	To impoverish us by taking away our ability to work, taking away everything that has, the infrastructure that has made society work, especially energy, to restrict our movement and to do the rest of this stuff, to put us on universal basic income.
	The lockdowns done by Benedict Donald were simply conditioning.
	They would get people used to this.
	And what was really astounding to me, and very unsettling, was just how willingly people were accepting that.
	And how just a little bit of training that was done by Trump, and people don't want to go back to work.
	So the EU digital identity wallet is now rolling out under the radar.
	And they've, you know, another one of these programs and another acronym.
	This one is called the UDI, I guess.
	EU Digital ID. The UDI. E-U-D-I. So, or the mark of the government, if you will.
	Digital wallets.
	Yeah. It's, again, you will be trapped into this system if you don't have some knowledge and some skills to get outside of it.
	And of course, also, you know, make sure that you're not trapped into this cashless society.
	That's a key part of this as well.
	The gold and silver aspects, you know, Tony Arterman can help you at Wise Wolf Gold.
	He set up davidknight.gold so that he knows that you're coming through us and he supports a program.
	But you want to make sure that you're not completely captive to their cashless society.
	Because they're gradually and progressively pushing us into that and shutting things down one aspect of life after the other as we move forward with this.
	So it is not just in Europe, of course.
	It is everywhere. But I like this article from Asia Times.
	What if UFOs have been a cover for high-tech human defense research programs?
	What if it was, you know, our own technology and they, you know, it's just a cover story.
	Oh, yeah. It's not us.
	It's those little green men that are doing this.
	Well, that is one aspect of it.
	And of course, humans could not do the types of things that you, in terms of the g-forces that these things have been observed to be involved in.
	No human being could really survive that.
	But, you know, and then there's other issues as well where it defies physics.
	So I don't think that even an explanation for most of these things, even an explanation of an unmanned aerial phenomenon, UAPs, and that interesting that they chose that, They didn't say the U doesn't stand for unmanned.
	It's an unidentified aerial phenomenon.
	But it could have been unmanned aerial phenomenon.
	But even those issues in terms of its being able to defy the laws of physics as we know it, I think that there is something else going on.
	And I think that there is, as I've said in the past, and it was interesting that one of the UFO researchers was complaining about the fact that That there were a bunch of Christians in the Pentagon that were holding this up because they thought UFOs were demonic.
	And that's basically where the side that I would come down on with this as well.
	And D.C., of course, we just had Henry Quaylar from Texas carjacked.
	And carjackings are up 111% in Washington, D.C., after they decided that they're not going to prosecute people for doing that.
	I wonder why anybody is surprised by that, of course.
	And it has gotten so bad that you have members of Congress saying, well, if we're going late into the night, I'm just going to sleep here.
	I'm not going to venture outside and try to get in my car and go home.
	That's how bad the crime in Washington, D.C. has become.
	So again, when you talk about this, do you think that the government is going to protect you?
	When you've got members of Congress, it's so dysfunctional that the District of Columbia is technically under the control of the federal government.
	That was the whole purpose of creating the District of Columbia.
	It's not a separate entity.
	It's not its own government there.
	But technically, the federal government should be able to take charge of that if it's in such a state of chaos and anarchy that the members of Congress can't even go out at night.
	If they're running late, they'd rather sleep in their own office.
	But if they can't do that, do you think they're going to do anything to help your life?
	Of course, they would work on that first for themselves.
	It is kind of interesting, isn't it, that with everything that's happening in Israel, I didn't see anything at all about the speaker race in Washington.
	Who's going to get that?
	That just got pushed off to the side completely, didn't it?
	Even with Trump, you know, he was going to go yesterday.
	I don't think that he did.
	I didn't see any news that he had gone to Washington to, you know, be the leader who is going to, you know, get all these children around the table and make sure that they're going to come up with a speaker, just like he got all the Democrats or Republicans in the Senate around a table and told them how they were going to control guns and how he said he's going to do the same thing with pro-life issues.
	I don't think they did anything about that.
	Instead, you had President Trump giving stump speeches about Israel and the rest of this.
	Again, Smith& Wesson celebrated their new Tennessee headquarters, leaving Massachusetts.
	It's over in Maryville, which is a little bit south of Knoxville.
	And this, I thought, was very interesting.
	The ribbon-cutting event showcased renowned competitive shooter Jerry Mikulik, who set an NRA record for hitting six steel plates with a 9mm revolver in 1.88 seconds.
	That's pretty impressive.
	Did they use him to shoot the ribbon out?
	He can hit six steel plates in under two seconds.
	I think he could probably shoot the ribbon out.
	They should have, instead of ribbon cutting, they should have had a ribbon shooting.
	From where I stand, the next 170 years of Smith& Wesson are looking pretty good, said the President and CEO. Something special here in Tennessee.
	We cited a welcoming regulatory environment and close collaboration with the Tennessee state government and their plans to relocate.
	Tennessee has moved to loosen gun restrictions in recent years because we now have here...
	A constitutional carry.
	And Smith& Wesson was established in Connecticut in 1852, but has spent most of its time as a corporation in Springfield, Massachusetts.
	There were a lot of different gun companies that are up there.
	And, of course, Massachusetts doesn't want them there anymore, but they are more than welcome to be in Tennessee.
	And I wish I had known that.
	I probably wouldn't have had the time to go by there and see it.
	And then the other thing that I really kind of thought we'd be talking about this week, besides the speaker's race, was going to be Hillary Clinton talking about her re-education camps.
	I guess, really, in a sense, that's not news.
	We kind of always knew that Hillary Clinton was coming from that perspective.
	So, you know, she actually went there saying that there needs to be some kind of formal deprogramming.
	We don't really know what she meant by that.
	But, of course, we do know that, you know, and again...
	When people look at Hillary Clinton and it's like, okay, yeah, she wants to have re-education camps like a Marxist or whatever.
	But did people not understand that there was a re-education program that was going on under Trump?
	You see, Hillary Clinton would have never been able to get away with this, but Trump was able to get away with it.
	That's the key thing. And so now, you know, we're told that we have to be aware of anyone who is, you know, the IRS as well as the FBI are now focusing on Christians.
	Yesterday, I want to thank Gard Goldsmith for doing an excellent job.
	And he had James Bovard on.
	And James Bovard had published a piece on the New York Post talking about how the FBI had new categories of people and they're looking at MAGA supporters as a new category.
	Well, it turns out now that it's a little bit broader than that.
	Information has just come out from the American Center for Law and Justice.
	They said they did a FOIA request for documents from the FBI for terms relating to Christians.
	And they said that, of course, you know, whenever you ask for a Freedom of Information Act request, all these government bureaucracies refuse to comply with the law.
	They all refuse.
	And so you have to sue them.
	And then you'll eventually get redacted documents.
	But they did, after the FBI refused to tell them if they had documents that targeted Christians and things like that, then they eventually got back and said, well, we have 345,000 pages of documents after they sued them.
	right? And so, I'm sorry, this is not the FBI, this is the IRS. It's the FBI that is targeting people politically, MAGA protesters and things like that, just as Hillary Clinton is saying, we've got to deprogram people.
	This is the IRS. And so, the IRS has 56,000 pages of documents referring to the Bible, 115,000 We're good to go.
	Don't know if that's silent prayer or like we saw in the UK. The ACLJ said just as Newsweek broke the story that the FBI is targeting MAGA supporters of Trump for the 2024 election, we unearthed revelations in our FOIA lawsuit that shows that the Biden IRS is also targeting Christians.
	The ACLJ report explained that Biden and FBI Chief Christopher Wray both have a history of targeting conservatives and Christians, which the ACLJ recently proved in another FOIA lawsuit against the FBI. You know, and in terms of that, there was an article at the end of last week, and it was about conservative talk radio, and I mentioned it just briefly.
	You know, they interviewed some people.
	I forget where it was.
	And they were saying, yeah, you know, Trump's got all the juice, and so talk radio is all about promoting Trump and everything.
	Yeah, it certainly is.
	In that article, the guy that they profiled, the guy that they had a picture of at the top of the article, and of course that was picked up by Drudge, you know, their close-up of him in front of the microphone.
	And in that article, they show a picture of this guy, and he's there posing with a picture with Christopher Wray, FBI Director Christopher Wray.
	And I told Karen, I said, wow, this guy is, yeah, he's a Trump supporter, he's a conservative, he's a Christian, and here he is posing with Christopher Wray.
	No way I would shake that guy's hand and have my picture taken with him.
	I said, does he not know who this guy is?
	This guy has violated the law, the Constitution, every way, shape, and form.
	Stephen Friend, FBI whistleblower that I talked to, talked about how everybody knows how they weaponize it.
	How can this guy be a conservative Christian Trump supporter who doesn't know how the FBI is weaponized?
	And then you look at the IRS. And again, you know, this is the Biden family.
	Millions of dollars. This would be major criminal prosecution with anybody else or the IRS, but they don't even pay attention to this.
	Instead, what are the Bidens focused on?
	The words, you know, Bible, prayer, Christian, Word of God, that's what they're looking for.
	It just had, as a matter of fact, it was...
	Put out by the Daily Mail, picked up by Drudge, showed a picture of Joe Biden's younger brother.
	I think his name is Frank. And, you know, he's in his early 60s.
	And he's posting nude pictures of himself up on some gay website.
	And he doesn't deny that that's him.
	I mean, what is it?
	With this Biden family, right?
	Hunter and his perversions and Joe's younger brother and then Joe and all the allegations of, you know, his daughter and others.
	I mean, the degeneracy.
	Of what is happening in Washington is just beyond belief.
	No wonder they're pushing so much money behind the exportation of, you know, changing the world into a sexually perverted society.
	So anyway, this ACLJ report said the federal government Believes that the threat of violence and major civil disturbances around the 2024 presidential election is so great that it has quietly created a new category of extremists that it seeks to track and counter.
	Again, this is what James Bovard and Gard Goldsmith did an excellent job yesterday.
	By the way, Liberty Conspiracy is where you're going to find Gard on Rockfin and on Rumble in the evenings, Monday through Friday, and I cannot thank him enough for helping us with that.
	I'm about to run out of time here, and before we do, I want to say thank you to some of the people who have sent us contributions, and I was very excited, and so was Karen, because we had not heard from a couple of supporters of family who had sent us pictures of their young children in the past,
	and Tom and his wife and They were in the middle of moving, and we were worried that something had happened to them.
	I was kind of worried, well, was it something that I said, you know?
	People get really upset with me.
	Probably lost a lot of listeners today.
	So we finally made it as part of our move to Indiana.
	And so, you know, talking about their work there and their ups and downs and the moves, and they wanted to get out of the Northeast because they're focused on their kids.
	And I've got to say that when I look at Abby and Sammy, and they told us that he would have been at January the 6th if it wasn't for what I said.
	And so I just look at that.
	I'm so grateful that they're doing well and that they're thriving.
	And it is such an encouragement to me to think that even if I was able to keep just one person, Out of that trap.
	This is worth it.
	So it's great to hear from them.
	And I'm glad that they are doing well.
	Karen was real excited because we had not heard from them for quite some time.
	And she came across this picture that I had here of Abby and Sammy.
	And it's a couple years old.
	And she said she was doing some cleaning this week and she came across it and she said, oh, it made her think about it.
	And she said she prayed for them because we hadn't heard anything from them for a while and then found out later, got a letter from them and that they were doing well.
	So it's always good.
	You know, it is... It is something of a family of the people that we hear from on a regular basis, and we really do appreciate your support.
	I just want to read one more letter before we run out of time here.
	Recently, you talked about Tennessee placing large-sized battery in the forest where there is a fire hazard, it's evident, due to this placement.
	Again, this is the Battery Energy Storage Sites, BESS. These are put together by various companies who broker the deal.
	In this particular case, they're brokering it with the Tennessee Valley Authority.
	The equipment is made by Tesla.
	The batteries are made by them.
	Actually by Panasonic and packaged by Tesla and then the whole package is sold to the utility company.
	But again, you just have one of these things fail and you get a massive runaway fire.
	Just imagine how big this is going to be.
	We've had buildings burned down on a regular basis in New York with these electric scooters.
	We see what happens with the car fires.
	We've seen jurisdiction after jurisdiction pull back from these electric buses because it's just too dangerous.
	We haven't really seen the destruction yet.
	Of the tractor trailers that are electric, although they've had several fires at the factory before they even get them out.
	But then let's go to the next level, which they have done in Australia, but that was out in the desert.
	Now they're going to put these things in residential areas.
	And they say they have to do it because they've got to have some way to store solar and wind when they're not running.
	But these things are not safe.
	They're not effective. Anyway, she says, this is from, sorry, not she, but it's from Marty, who says, I was shocked to hear that a grid battery energy storage system is being planned in Long Lake, New York, in the Adirondack Mountains, inside the 6 million acre state park, a 20 megawatt battery installation.
	The folks up there don't want it, and they got a one-year postponement to discuss this issue.
	To me, it's a totally insane idea, just more destruction of this country.
	It is.
	It is a destruction of our ability to have reliable, affordable energy, and it is a massive accident And, of course, they've had several of these already catch fire in New York.
	So we've had fires in New York.
	York, we've had fires in California and Australia, other places, and even to the extent that people have organized not just in upstate New York, but they've also organized in areas of just outside of New York City, they've organized to stop this.
	And so they may be able to do something with it.
	Well, I've got a list here of people that we received checks from.
	I will not get to that today, but I thank everyone for your support.
	I got everything together and I forgot to give Karen the number so we could change the gas gauge today.
	But we'll have that up tomorrow.
	And thank you so much for your support.
	and uh...
	And anyway, I know that it's a very controversial issue, but it's one that we need to think about how it's going to affect each and every one of us in our country as they try to roll this stuff out.
	Thank you for joining us. Let me tell you, The David Knight Show, you can listen to with your ears.
	You can even watch it by using your eyes.
	In fact, if you can hear me, that means you're listening to The David Knight Show right now.
	Yeah, good job.
	And you want to know something else?
