They always say that there's a little bit of truth when it comes to comedy.
There's always a little bit of truth.
And in this case, a lot of truth.
It's not really funny what's going on there in Israel.
And people always say this, Elijah, why are you obsessed with Israel?
Why do you talk about them all the time?
Hey, I don't make the rules.
I'm not the one occupying a territory and making American taxpayers fund it.
I'm paying for their war.
You know, I tend to care about the things I pay for, my children, my wife, you know, my studio.
I care about it so much that one of my screens isn't even working and no one even noticed.
That's how much I care about this stuff.
No, but seriously, it's like, you know, I care about things I pay for, but on top of that, it's also like, hey, maybe that if you didn't occupy my government, maybe if you didn't try to change the rules in every state to manipulate free speech so that we can't criticize you guys when we can criticize anybody else and we get hated and you guys, you know, push in movies and in propaganda, hatred of white people, et cetera, while then going out and then telling, you know, us that you guys are sacred and any pushback is hatred and anti-Semitism.
Maybe if you guys stayed in your lane and actually maybe went to the country you all praise so much and lived there and stopped trying to tell everybody else what we can or can't do, maybe we would all just shut the hell up and stop talking about you.
That's crazy, right?
But they can't do it.
So today there's a peace deal going on between the region of the world I can't hear.
I just want to stop hearing about it.
It's like I don't want to hear about it any longer.
Between Palestine and Israel, I'm not on anybody's side here.
I'm just on the side of America minding its own damn business and stopping involved in these foreign wars.
Stop provoking them.
My guest today will be on a minute.
Scott Horton is an incredible author.
He has a new book out called Provoke.
It's talking about basically how these wars happen and particularly in Ukraine and U.S. involvement in it.
Plus, he's also the manager of anti-war.com.
We'll introduce him in a second.
It is approximately 8.15 p.m. Eastern Time in the United States.
This is going to be an extra offensive show for those of you that are light in the loafers, as they call it, right?
Let's start the show.
All right.
No dancing tonight.
We get a little confetti of color blasted in my face.
We are woke.
So whenever there's white people on the show, we launch the colored confetti so that, sorry, confetti of color, because it's not colored confetti because that's politically incorrect.
And so we have a little bit of diversity on the screen.
My guest today, Scott Horton, is a legend of himself.
If you don't know about him, you should get his book.
Links in the description called Provoked.
Again, check out antiwar.com.
But for people who don't know you, because this is a very young crowd, this is like, you know, we have a guy that just interned for us and he said he's watching since he was 14.
I'm a skater from Austin, basically a Ron Paul Republican, well, libertarian and director of the Libertarian Institute and editorial director of anti-war.com.
I wrote a book, Fool's Eren, about Afghanistan and enough already about the war on terrorism and Provoked is my new one, as you said, about the new Cold War with Russia and the war in Ukraine.
I've done 6,000 interviews since 2003.
That's crazy.
And yeah, I'm basically just an anti-government guy, and especially on foreign policy, because I figured out Young just was lucky enough, I guess, from happenstance to figure out that America's relationship with the rest of the world is actually the single most important determining factor in our national government's relationship with us, the American people.
As long as we have a world empire, of course, we have to have a massive national government in Washington, D.C.
The power to rule the world.
Of course, they have the power to rule everything, every aspect of our lives as well.
So if we really want to be free, the first step is to abolish the American empire.
We'll find that there's actually a lot of Washington, D.C. that we don't need at all once we don't have a world empire to maintain anymore.
Then we can get rid of income taxation.
Then we can have hard money.
Then we can have something approximating a free market instead of this completely corrupt rigged system where, as we talked about on the previous show, the military industries themselves constitute a major deformation in American capitalism and in the overall system of property ownership and profit and loss when you have so much of such a large segment of the American economy completely tied into and dependent on the national government for its existence.
It just skews everything.
Even agribusiness is all tied up in foreign policy and using our government to gangsterize other governments to open their markets to American exports and that kind of thing, whether they want them or not.
Because when Trump came out, he goes, yeah, we're going to take Panama.
And then the reporter asked him, so that doesn't include the threat of use of military force.
He goes, I didn't say that.
I'm not ruling that out.
And I go, you know what?
Sometimes I forget what an empire we are because our CIA is so good at manipulating the media to really not cover the level of bullying and manipulation that we take on.
And then the Magatards, which I am a Magatard too, so this isn't like hateful for anybody.
But the Magatards are like, what do you mean Trump's a bully?
You're like, well, he's the head of a system that's, you know, you call it the deep state.
We can call it whatever we want to call it.
America, the deep state, the people in power.
It's like, you know, you guys cannot admit that perhaps maybe, you know, the government isn't led by Donald Trump.
You know, I mean, he's doing his best, but I don't know if he really is leading it.
And you can't get there without, you know, doing us some favors.
Donald Trump's position on empire is it's fine if it makes economic sense.
So in other words, he would say about Iraq, I can't believe we did that war and we didn't even get all the oil.
Or he would say, you know, that's why we're in Syria.
So we can take the oil, which is in fact what he did.
He sent the military or he kept the military there for his entire four years in power before to protect the theft of Syrian oil by Conoco and other American tied multinational corporations to go in there and talked about it like, well, that's worth it then.
So in other words, you know, waste a trillion dollars trying to pacify Afghanistan when you could never actually transport their mineral wealth out of the country anyway.
Right.
The investment it would take to build the railroads and whatever the infrastructure it would take to legitimately get away with stealing Afghanistan's minerals couldn't possibly worth it, even with government taxpayer investment.
Couldn't possibly be worth it to do that.
Why should we be paying the defense bills for Germany and Japan and Korea, South Korea?
But on Trump's point of view, though, he doesn't buy that.
He goes, we shouldn't have to defend them anymore.
They should pay their own bills.
But the Panama Canal, well, that might be in our interest if we have to spend however many billion dollars even to take it by force if we think that it's going to benefit us by even more than that.
If he wants to take Greenland, I don't know.
He'll probably just try to buy it rather than truly take it.
But why does he want it?
Because all the strategists say this is how America faces down Russia and China in the battle for the Arctic for the rest of the century here.
That's not defend America first.
That's American imperialism.
But just from what?
A more fiscally responsible point of view?
In other words, instead of just completely blowing $8 trillion on Iraq for nothing, we'll spend $15 billion on Greenland and maybe we'll be able to make something of that.
So at least it's closer to home.
I think that more closely reflects his thinking compared to somebody like Ron Paul, who would never in a million years consider trying to take Greenland or Canada and add to America's land holdings and expanding the empire in any way.
I was going to say, my take was that after Vivek, who's been quiet, very quiet, after presenting the idea of replacing American workers with global workers and making us compete on the world stage, I love the fact that him and Elon said that when Elon doesn't even have to compete with his business with China, right?
The government puts so much tariffs on Chinese electric technology, particularly in cars, so that Elon can monopolize and basically make that much money.
So he doesn't even have to compete with China for his own car makers, but you should have to compete with an Indian guy.
I just watched an Indian do an abortion into a sewer, and then they took the baby out and they ate it.
So that's a real video, by the way.
I don't know why I saw it, but this is what institutions are in India.
All I was going to say is like he's been very quiet since that occurred, but I do think it's definitely a little bit funny because these rich people who are running our country, they're ruling and sort of dictating what Trump can do.
I was going to ask you about that.
I feel like we're in a technological oligarchy and they're the ones kind of setting the rules.
They're the ones kind of setting the future.
And I feel like we're actually just trying to lead technologically or we're looking to become leaders in AI.
I don't know if warfare is going to be just guns and bullets in the future.
Well, I don't really know what the true capabilities of AI are.
And especially when it comes to combining that technology with quantum computing, which they say is going to be such a breakthrough in the capability.
Instead of being able to just ask if something's a one or a zero, it'll be able to ask if something is a one through 10 or maybe one through a trillion or whatever all at once.
And I don't know how it works exactly, but the way they were explaining it, all passwords in the world will be pwned immediately.
That like any real quantum computer would be able to break the password on any regular old technology computer after that, that kind of thing.
So if it's that powerful folders, yeah, if it's that powerful and you combine it with the AI.
And see, it's just like in the story of Terminator, right?
The which is like the ultimate nightmare of the AI technology run amok.
It's not just that the AI wants to kill us, it's that the Pentagon developed the Skynet technology to be a weapon, right?
And then it blew up in our face and turned against us.
So that's, of course, the forefront of not just, you know, the AI stuff, but really all of Silicon Valley has been subsidized by the national government for the purposes of gearing it all toward national security.
Trump threatened him and Biden went ahead and added them before Trump even had a chance to.
And I think you're right that that is protection for Musk first and foremost.
But and the other electronic car makers too.
But yeah, Silicon Valley has been financed by major intelligence connected banks all along.
And really the entire telecommunications industry since World War II was really built by the NSA or in cooperation with the NSA.
People should always, definitely, everyone should read the James Bamford books.
Body of Secrets.
First was The Puzzle Palace, then Body of Secrets.
He's got great stuff in there about the USS Liberty, by the way.
Best book on the USS Liberty is in Body of Secrets.
And then he also did A Pretext for War and The Shadow Factory.
And three of the four of those are about the NSA.
And he talks about how, yeah, of course, I mean, if you just stop and think about it for a second, yes, ATT is absolutely blood brothers with the National Security Agency, always has been.
ATT is not a private corporation.
Ma Bell is not a private corporation.
It's as intertwined.
Yeah, it's as intertwined with the national government as any corporation could be.
The same as if you're talking about, you know, Exxon or IBM or any of the, you know, major, or for that matter, Archer Daniels, Midland, ADM, you know, the arms manufacturers, big agriculture, big pharmaceutical companies, you know, the more important and the bigger the business, the more intertwined with the national government they are, of course, you know, and then Silicon Valley, yes.
It's actually interesting to think if we had had, if we had not had an empire and we had something like a free market, it's interesting to consider which directions all this technology might have gone as opposed to the way that it has gone.
I mean, even the social media was, I think, was largely developed as, you know, to be useful tools, not just adopted after the fact, but even was probably developed in the first place to be useful tools for regime change.
You look at the way that they used it for the Arab Spring and all of that.
And well, a more apt example would be the Green Revolution in Iran in 2009, when you might remember Twitter was going to go offline for half a day for maintenance or something.
And the State Department called and said, no, no, no, you got to go back online.
We're in the middle of a color-coded revolution in Iran and we need you.
And so, you know, the onion, the Tor browser, that was made by the State Department, essentially to help dissidents in other countries that America is trying to influence and overthrow.
They created a problem, their own problem with our free speech, too, right?
The internet was always a double-edged sword.
It really was created in the first place as a system of control.
And then, but the idea was, you know, mostly that Americans, American civilians, are essentially harmless.
And it's a tool mostly for use overseas.
And in their mind, I think this goes a lot to the subject matter I'm provoked in all of this too.
There's a lot of self-righteousness rather than pure evil and corruption built into all of this.
And there's a lot of self-justification that, look, America's the freest, greatest country in the world, and we're just trying to help all the other countries become greater and freer like us too.
So the more help we give them, the better.
When we don't like their government, the guys that we like obviously are the good guys.
Otherwise, we wouldn't like them.
Right.
And so then, if we can, say in Belarus, if we can pour a bunch of money into these groups and help support dissident groups against this right-wing strongman, authoritarian, oh, presidente type that they have there in Lukashenko, well,
then aren't we heroes for giving them the means to, for example, communicate in with encrypted messaging systems or, you know, use the Tor browse or whatever to get around their own government surveillance so that they can liberate themselves.
Like, I'm talking now, like somebody who works at the NED, but just to explain, like, that's their point of view to a great degree.
Is that, you know, if we're overthrowing the government of Belarus, it's because we need to, because it needs overthrowing, right?
Otherwise, we wouldn't be doing it.
It's not that they think that, like, aha, we're going to now get away with bloody murder by doing the wrong thing.
They're all convinced they're doing the right thing.
And, but that's a huge part of like we're saying in the other interview, where the military-industrial complex is not just the military-industrial, but it's the everything complex.
They subsidize the national government, which subsidizes all facets of academia and science and research and tech and media and every part, every aspect of our society that they can.
Famously, Lockheed, I guess, and Boeing pioneered this, but I guess they all do it now.
Where they will have part of a Boeing or a Lockheed jet made in as many congressional districts across the country as they possibly can.
They will spread it out purely for political reasons so that no congressman dare suspend any of their projects because they'll say, Hey, that's 500 jobs in your district, Congressman.
I mean, honestly, if you take people who are just regular, normal people, engineers and whatever, people who are not criminals, and tell them, look, you're facing life in prison if you ever reveal this stuff.
This is not kidding around.
You absolutely are forbidden.
Sign here.
Then for that job and that access, they know how serious it is.
And oftentimes they know, depending on what it is that you're talking about, if this technology did fall into the hands of a foreign nation, it would absolutely be a detriment.
And so they would not want that responsibility, right?
Like they're doing this job because, in other words, your grandfather didn't just think stealth technology was neat.
He was doing it for the United States.
If he thought that he was inventing that technology to be given to the Chinese, he wouldn't have been doing the work, right?
It's really not that, it's really, really got some serious problems.
All I'm going to say, it's got some systemic issues.
I do want to talk about that because I'm going to hear your thought process on this and quite a few other topics.
Also, can you message Jenna and Vivian real fast?
Because a few people said in here that like our stream has been like, it was like buried under their feed today and some things and didn't get notifications.
And like, that's fine if they're doing some tech stuff, but I just want to make sure that we could get this up pinned or something so more people can watch Scott and see if she can help with the notifications.
So, you know, as we talk about this, I want to remind you guys that, you know, in many of our lives, we're talking about actual protection about having your information online.
You know, I just had some issues recently where even my family members dox them because you, you know, people search up information.
They end up doxing parents and different stuff.
And it gets pretty crazy.
There's all these information brokerage sites that take your information, just put it on Google.
People leak my phone number, it happens, whatever.
Now, I've always thought it's really annoying, and I don't know how to get that stuff taken down.
But thankfully, there's a new service called Aura.
If you go to aura.com/slash slightly, you can go ahead and they'll remove that information off the internet for you.
You also get a VPN and on top of that, you also get a password safe to keep your passwords together and so much more directly in one single service.
So the list is kind of like, what is some of the other things as well?
So, like, if your stuff gets leaked on the dark web, if you start to get a lot of spam calls or emails, then that's probably because your stuff was leaked on the dark web.
So, it'll notify you that it just sends you like an automatic email every time that there's a big leak.
Yeah, and I, but I just like my favorite part is just the free VPN mixed in because I don't know if you know, but this show, censored.tv, uh, our website is blocked in uh Australia.
So, I was obviously you guys know I live in out of Australia.
I've been there for years, um, and I could never even like access my own job.
So, I had to use VPNs to get around it.
And a lot of you guys live in places where that's true.
I'm not recommending it, but you can't access porn in Florida anymore.
Um, or you can with a VPN, um, don't do that though, but I'm just trying to tell you how it works, right?
You can, you can skirt local laws and stuff.
Um, so it is good to have one, plus getting your information off the internet so that you're not doxxed.
Protect yourself at RO.com slash slightly a-ur-a.com slash S-L-I-G-H T-L-Y for your free 14-day trial.
Honestly, make sure you check it out.
As you know, we're demonetized everywhere, uh, and it is important to check it out.
We have an announcement also at the end of the show or towards the end.
We're going to talk about a new project that we're working on, so make sure that you check that out.
Uh, Scott Horton, a legend in his own device, um, you know, him and I had a conversation earlier, as I mentioned.
We'll talk about that later.
Um, there's a new project coming out.
I'm very excited.
It's sort of like uh, sort of like this, just uh, cleaned up and uh uh safe for all audiences.
Some people complain about this show.
I know I just said content earlier, you know, I want to watch this around my kids.
I want to get the same, you know, people and information and stuff, but in a way that's maybe a little more educated, as they call it, a little bit less, you know, Tim, Tim cast uncensored, you know, a little less fuck, fuck, fuck, every word.
And so, um, we're, we, we created that for you.
The team's working really hard.
We've got a new assistant producer, our new editor, and they've been doing greater new intern, and we're sort of building a better and a stronger product here.
And thanks to the generous donation of Raytheon and Northrop Grumman, we're able to keep this operation going.
And I'd just like to say we lit a candle in Netanyahu's favorite tonight because he is God.
No, but that being said, I was talking about some of this weird stuff.
I want to talk to you about the peace deal here.
And we're going to talk about a few weird topics that are not even what you'd normally talk about, but I more want to pick your brain on it.
Okay, so the peace deal came out, and I might have an old school understanding of peace.
But eight hours ago, if you could bring up my screen, I think, oh, I guess that's not my screen.
That's your screen, maybe?
Or no?
Okay, let me see.
Give me a second.
Let me know if Brian's there, but it would be good if someone could update the NDI there.
Let me see.
All right.
Well, I guess we're not going to be able to bring up the screen today because it's not working.
He's in the computer, but it's not.
I don't know what's going on.
All right.
So more than 80 Palestinians were killed by Israeli airstrikes since the ceasefire announcement says Gaza Civil Defense Agency.
This is from the Guardian because people always say that I use biased news.
That's an oxymoron because all news is biased, but you know, they're like, oh, you can't use Al Jazeera.
Okay, let's use British stuff.
This is British, right?
Guardian?
Yeah.
Yeah, sure.
Okay, British.
An Israeli airstrike killed five Palestinians to the west of Jabalia in the northern Gaza Strip on Thursday.
The Palestinian news agency WAFA reported since Qatar announced on Wednesday that a ceasefire deal had been reached, but which has not yet been formally agreed.
Gaza Civil Defense Agency reported Israel has escalated its strikes.
Israel strikes have killed 81 people and injured 188 others.
According to WAFA, a civil defense spokesperson said its teams had recovered the bodies of five children after a strike on the northern city.
The Israeli military said it had conducted strikes on approximately 50 terror targets across the Gaza Strip since late Wednesday.
You know, I have a question about this.
What the fuck, man?
With like what this Israel stuff, it's indefensible in my opinion on what's going on here, but I don't want to make this an Israel versus are you on Israel's side or Palestinian side?
What is going?
Like what is actually going on here between Israel and Palestine and this peace deal?
I mean, when you ask me, you asked me, you know, what does it mean when Israel bombs after the ceasefire is announced?
I mean, that's typical.
They're going to always do that.
They break every ceasefire except October 7th.
But going back to W. Bush years, they were the ones who always broke the ceasefires in the mowing the grass episodes and they bombed the Gaza Strip like this, October 7th, notwithstanding.
And then, you know, they would say, I think they have an excuse, which is, look, we're not implementing it yet.
We just announced that there is one.
So once we get to the stage of implementation where we're not supposed to bomb anymore, then we'll stop bombing.
But then, you know, Chris Hedges, the former New York Times reporter, he put out a tweet, I guess, yesterday saying, you know, what typically happens in these circumstances is that Israel will implement as much of the peace deal as they want to, and then they'll stop when they don't want to anymore.
So if they have to stop bombing in order to get the hostages back, they'll do that.
But then once they have the hostages, then they'll go back to doing whatever they want again, which is, of course, pardon me, what Hamas is worried about and has been, you know, part of the difficulty in arranging this deal this whole time.
But I don't know if you saw the great clip of Max Blumenthal confronting Anthony Blinken, the Secretary of State today.
So what happened was, you know, Blumenthal confronted him and said, listen, everybody knows we had a ceasefire deal in May and we could have done this in May and you kept the thing going.
And I think, of course, you know, and I'm sure Max would agree that they could have ended it long before that.
But they didn't and they let the thing continue.
And everyone now agrees that it was not the Biden administration.
It was Donald Trump intervening and sending his men to force the agreement through now.
Now, so what's confusing about Elijah is there's some reporting that says that Trump really put the screws to Netanyahu and said, you listen here, mister, I want you to sign this thing.
And that his envoy said, I don't care if it's Saturday, we're going to meet and you're going to listen and blah, blah, blah, this kind of thing.
In other words, Trump played some hardball with Netanyahu.
I don't know about that.
As we talked about in the interview, though, his threat that, boy, you better give up the hostages by the time I get sworn in or there's going to be hell to pay.
But also his tweet that, hey, everybody, here's Jeffree Sachs blaming all our Middle East wars on Benjamin Netanyahu, that both of those tweets or truth social posts were part of his diplomacy as well.
And you know what?
That clip of Sachs is a really good clip of Jeffree Sachs on the Tucker Carlson show.
If anybody has not seen the most recent interview of Jeffree Sachs on the Tucker Carlson show, it is the most important interview he's probably ever done on there in terms of knowing this history Of our wars in the Middle East and in Eastern Europe now.
It's just fantastic.
And including where he blames the Netanyahu clean break doctrine for America's wars since Iraq and the rest of it and just absolutely castigates Netanyahu.
For Trump to put that out was a pretty big deal.
And I don't know exactly how to interpret it, but it shows a willingness of him to go pretty far.
And I'll tell you one good thing, Elijah, about what's happened here is just based on the initial reporting that Trump had kind of twisted Netanyahu's arm to get him to agree to this ceasefire, many of the most right-wing Zionists in Israel and I guess in the United States have been attacking Trump and calling him a betrayer and cursing his name and all of these things, which I think is really great.
And I want to see more of that.
And I think, let's go ahead and get this all out in the open now 10 days before, five days before the inauguration.
Let's go ahead and make it real clear just how much Zionist Israel respects Donald Trump and respects the United States of America.
When we serve them, fine.
And anything short of that, then it's treason.
And in fact, there was a great tweet going around last week of this Zionist lady accusing Joe Biden of being the greatest betrayer of Israel and Jewish people and selling them out.
And it's like, are you kidding me?
After he wrote you a blank check, gave you $50 billion and every 2,000-pound bomb you could possibly drop on a tent full of children, now he's Judas.
He's the betrayer?
You've got to be kidding me.
Like, what could he, and in fact, there was one day, I think two days where Biden held up deliveries of 2,000-pound bombs and actually Trump's people fundraised off it and said, see, Joe Biden's an anti-Semite.
But that was it.
It was like, he held up shipments of the biggest bombs for two days.
And they do bomb tents with those 2,000 pound bombs too.
It's just disgusting the way they slaughter innocent civilians.
And I'll tell you, the end result of that, it's not, this one is not very pretty.
But I enjoy gaslighting.
And some people say that I was born to gaslight people.
And so I have a ton of fun, right?
Now, that being said, as an expert in that, I can see what it's happening to me as well.
And it's like, it's funny because it's like, no, we don't like killing people, they say.
We don't love this.
We're trying to hit terrorists.
And then it'll be like a video, like 10 Palestinians killed.
And then it's like Jewish accounts with like the Star of David and stuff, like more, kill more, excellent.
Yay, like hearts, I love this.
Good news.
And it's like, not like one troll.
It's like 600.
It's like the majority of comments are Jewish people celebrating children dying.
And it's actually, I feel like it puts my guests that I've had on that are actual white supremacists to shame because their white supremacy that's supposed to be really bad is not really like, they don't want to see everyone die.
They're actually not like some genocidal people.
They're more like, you know, we think we're better than people.
And whatever, free country.
Think, think whatever you want.
You know, we like our people.
We don't want to live around other people.
But I wouldn't, I've never seen anything from them.
Like if like brown kids are blown up in Gaza being like, hell yeah.
You know, they're like, this is sick, actually.
And Israel's wrong.
I don't want Palestinians living in my country, but they shouldn't be treated like that.
Especially conservative, Republican, especially older generation just stuck in that W. Bush mindset where, look, these people are Muslims.
They're the enemy.
Kill them.
And they have no historical curiosity whatsoever, no understanding of who's occupying who or who's doing what.
It's just good guys and bad guys.
And the Israelis are whiter and speak English better.
And that's all they need to know.
And so it's, you know, I like to point out, because it is worth pointing out, because there are people who are on the Zionist side who want to hide behind false accusations that all Israeli critics are just anti-Semites.
And then there are plenty of anti-Semites, too, who do want to jump on board and say, yeah, see, it's the Jews and this and that.
When in fact, there are lots of Jews who are not Zionists and there are lots of Zionists who are not Jews.
And as Eric Garris, who is Jewish from anti-war.com likes to say, you got to learn to discriminate, not against people, between people, right?
So the people who are the pro-death trolls, you know, they are themselves.
And a lot of them, you know, a lot of them also probably are just trolls.
I think probably, I wouldn't doubt that maybe half the white supremacists in my mentions and half the Zionist Jews in my mentions are fake and are some people trying to make other people look bad.
You know what I mean?
I don't know that.
Maybe not half, maybe a quarter, maybe a third of, you know, but a lot of it is not genuine.
And a lot of the pro-Israel and the pro-Ukraine trolls too, they're just paid troll farms, right?
They're like, you know, college kids getting paid to sit at a computer for eight hours a day, just harassing anyone who says the wrong thing and that kind of thing.
So I try not to extrapolate too much from what some people tweet as far as what other people think in the world.
I feel like I have a pretty good understanding of a lot of these people.
And I feel like we're in a pretty good position to make some genuine, you know, this is actually a great episode for the computer not to be working because you're just good to talk.
Like I have some guests on that like just don't know how to talk.
Like, he's the perfect anti-matter to Ben Shapiro, right?
In fact, one of the things that Max Blumenthal, I forget if I explained this.
Anthony Blinken was doing a press conference today, and Blumenthal stood up and started yelling questions at him and then eventually just declarative statements at him.
And one of the things that Max Blumenthal did was he accused Anthony Blinken of destroying the Jewish religion by tarnishing it with support for Israeli Zionism and fascism and genocide.
And how do you feel, Blinken, knowing that your legacy is genocide?
they don't have souls though and he's also but i'm just saying max blumenthal is extremely jewish and he comes he's sydney blumenthal's son who is bill clinton's advisor right He comes from a Jewish family and of Jewish background and a Jewish synagogue.
I know, but I'm just saying, it's a perfect example.
Oh, and I'm not saying you're saying that, but I'm just saying it's a great example like from today.
No, here you have this great anti-Zionist Jew, Max Blumenthal, just absolutely sticking it to Anthony Blinken, who is Jewish and a Zionist and our Secretary of State and who is responsible for so much of this.
And in fact, it is the historical record.
Blinken, after October 7th, went to Israel and said, I'm here as a Jew, not I'm here as the Secretary of State of the United States of America, your closest ally, but I'm here as a fellow Jew with you, which is a pretty weird way to frame it.
If it's an ethnicity, that doesn't make sense because there's Yemeni Jews and Ethiopian Jews and Moroccan Jews and Ashkenazi Jews and all different kinds of people.
And here's the point about the Jewish people that I think is kind of funny is like, I actually, I'm so tired of worrying about what they care about.
Like, it's, it's in my country.
Like, I, you know, if I go to visit their country, I would love to hear what they worry about and what it is they're upset about.
They love to talk about everything that upsets them all the time.
And so I just, I've heard it all.
And, you know, people walk around there and they go, you know, it's so crazy.
You know, I really liked your show until you became unbalanced.
People have a lot of euphemisms for just, I'm a shill for Israel and Jews.
Like, that's what that's, that's what they're saying.
It's like, I just don't want you to criticize Israel.
And they're like, why don't you just say that?
Why do you say like, oh, until you became imbalanced or until you went crazy?
All you're just mean is until I started being honest about what Israel is doing.
And the point of the matter is, is like, you know, the top two receivers of a foreign aid are Israel and Egypt.
We're really only giving Egypt money to play nice with Israel.
And a lot of the foreign aid is about keeping Israel safe.
And our wars that we're fighting, people go $3 billion.
We're literally Netanyahu's list of countries that we are supposed to take out.
We've done everyone except for Iran, and we haven't heard the end of trying to take out Iran.
And we probably will go to war with them at one time if we can't coup them and cause an internal collapse like we see in Syria, right?
Unless we can fund at least enemies to wage a war with them.
And so it's like, you know, when you really look at the aid we've given Israel, it's actually trillions of dollars.
And when I go look at North Carolina and I watch videos of Americans, particularly white Americans, it's every American, but I see that FEMA has in their handbook to, you know, overlook people with Trump signs, to overlook in their text messages to their people, people that are white, to go after people who are not white.
When I see discrimination in my own country, when I see the $770 given out to victims of massive fires of these hurricanes, and I'm seeing people's lives ruined, you know, people mock the Palisades victims because they say they have money.
Okay, I don't think that's right.
I think rich people deserve empathy.
They didn't get their money by stepping on people.
We don't hate people just because they are successful.
Unless they're evil people like Bill Gates or something.
I don't see why we should celebrate their demise, right?
But with like the, you know, North Carolina, these are some of the poorest people in the country.
And I'm not looking down on them.
And even the ones that are not, their lives are ruined.
And yet we're waging trillion dollar wars on behalf of Israel.
So I'm saying that that person is like sitting there working in North Carolina, giving the government money to go drop bombs on behalf of Israel.
And I might say even the Ukraine war is being led by a Jewish man, you know, and that are very close allies with Israel.
We can get into that.
But it's a very interesting topic.
And I go, it makes me sick that our government is despising and spitting on the suffering of its own people to cause suffering somewhere else so that another people who are not our people can live in peace and can live in prosperity.
And it makes me, it makes me furious.
And so they go, well, why do you care about this?
Because it's fucked up.
And what Israel's doing is fucked up.
What our American government funding it is fucked up.
The fact that the taxpayers, people that have just had their houses burned down, are currently paying taxes in their jobs to fund Israel to drop bombs.
That's fucked up.
And I'm not going to not talk about the things that are really fucked up in the world.
And that's, and it can stop, right?
We're not complaining about the fact that the rain is wet or that the ocean, you know, is full of fish.
You know, Ben Shapiro likes to say, well, what would we do if Mexico or the Mexicans were firing rockets across the Rio Grande at us?
But see, the implication is that you're talking about Mexico City.
You're talking about the national government of Mexico and its military attacking across the Rio Grande.
Well, in that case, we'd kick their asses what?
But that analogy is inapt.
It is just not apt.
What we're talking about here, in the case of the Gaza Strip, this is an Indian reservation.
This land was already conquered 10 years, nine years before I was born in 1967.
And so, you know, the whole controversy, of course, goes back to 1948.
But when they conquered the place in 48, they cleansed the land of almost all the Palestinians on the land that they took.
So that what they had was about a fifth of the population.
20% were Arab Muslims and Christians, and the other 80% were Jews.
So they could have a Jewish democracy.
And at that time, Jordan controlled the West Bank.
And sorry, from your point of view, Jordan controlled the West Bank, and Egypt controlled the Gaza Strip.
But then after the 67 war, Israel took total possession of the West Bank and Gaza, but they weren't able, and they did cleanse about 250,000 more people, but they weren't able to cleanse them all.
So what did they do?
Elijah, essentially, what they did was they kidnapped them all.
They took that land, but they took all the people.
And then, but what are they going to do with them all?
And the idea was eventually they'll just lay down and die.
I don't know.
Eventually they'll just give up and flee to Jordan.
Eventually, they'll just, I don't know what.
We'll figure it out over the long term.
But so this is what's the important point for people to understand is that, so back to Ben Shapiro in Mexico, rather than America being at war with Mexico in the analogy, this would be like if America was just at war with a Navajo reservation out in Arizona.
And we had them surrounded by a giant concrete wall and we just kept bombing them and bombing them and bombing them, totally surrounded, fish in a barrel, right?
That's not a war.
That's a slaughter.
That's like the Attica prison uprising when Governor Rockefeller just sent the National Guard in there to massacre everybody, guards too, right?
It's a massacre.
It's nothing like an actual conflict.
What happened on October 7th?
Why do we call it October 7th?
Because it was over by supper time.
That's why.
We don't even call it, you know, the bad, really, second week in October.
We call it October the 7th because it didn't even last for one full day.
Because what had actually happened was the strongest gang in the prison broke out of their pen and then they were bombed and chased right back in again.
Yeah, also, I think, you know, which we know and it's been confirmed that a lot of the carnage and the images that are shown of like cars on fire and stuff was the attack helicopters from Israel.
And Israeli media has described this over and over again.
And a lot of great American journalists as well, Max Blumenthal, the Grey Zone, Ali Abu Nima from Electronic Intifada, Brad Pierce, the Wayward Rabbler, also had a great thing all about this from the very beginning.
And then Wynette and Haaretz and others in Israel, including, I believe, the Jerusalem Post as well, have all covered this as well.
It's called the Hannibal Directive.
And it was invented because in, I forgot what year, but in the W. Bush years, I guess, or maybe early Obama, an Israeli soldier was kidnapped, Elad Shalid or something like that.
And they had to trade him for like a thousand Palestinian prisoners.
And so they adopted a new policy called the Hannibal Directive that says if an Israeli soldier is being abducted and taken by Hamas into Gaza to blow him away along with his captors so as to not put Israel in such a compromised position.
But then here's what happened on October 7th.
They changed the order from the Hannibal directive to what they called mass Hannibal.
And that meant not just killing one soldier if somebody grabs him, but that means blowing away anybody who they think has been kidnapped by Hamas or any Hamas vehicle headed back toward Gaza, even though they may or may not know who is in the car with them, including.
Uh people who were kidnapped, and it's also the case that uh tanks were used against the houses at the kibbutz.
Um, and all of this is in Israeli media.
I don't know the total number of people, but it's clearly dozens or scores of Israeli citizens who were killed, possibly as many as a hundred killed by their own government.
I think a lot of their soldiers were killed too, and I I want to bring this up, which is actually pretty crazy.
So um, I got to be careful in reading this story, obviously for for reasons that we wouldn't know.
But um, if you can bring up the screen, it should.
This should bring up now, it should.
Uh oh, we're not, you're not able to bring it up okay, all right, all right, so let me bring this up okay so um basically, check this out.
Um okay Brian stop stop, right.
Okay, let's stop one second.
Let me just.
Let me just do something.
Thank you, all right uh, I think uh, I think, I think uh it's, it's pretty remarkable.
So I don't, did you see this from the gray zone about this?
Uh no, this story.
Okay, so this is really important because uh, the gray zone has uh exposed a few of my friends, let's just say, were targeted by the Center FOR Countering Digital HATE.
Okay, so this is a censorship uh directive that was uncovered.
And the Center FOR Countering Digital HATE is the people.
People might famously know them during the OKAY, Groomer uh phase of Twitter, which was kind of cringe but um, they essentially put a list out of of accounts that were um, you know, Anti-lgbtq and they got a bunch of people censored, deleted off of instagram and stuff.
Also, them and the ADL were behind getting a bunch of people banned, like Paul Joseph Watson, et cetera, for for arbitrary reasons, not because they did anything bad, but because of who they were off platform.
So this, the Center FOR Countering Digital HATE, is uh led by, I think, a Muslim guy, i'm pretty sure in uh, in the Uk, and they've been extremely influential in the United Kingdom and the United States in getting right-wing and nationalist people shut down.
Well, I mean, obviously it's not fun thinking about the Uk, you know, being involved online with with shutting people down, but you know, there's a bit of a connection there.
Right, the Uk and the United States share intelligence.
We're the FIVE EYES um, and uh, you know, most of our tech companies have offices there, you know.
I mean, it's a, it's a definitely a strategic partner and trade partner.
Well, it turns out that uh leaked emails exposed collaborative efforts between Israeli government and the Center FOR Countering Digital HATE.
Emails obtained by the GRAY ZONE reveal how leading anti-hate campaigner, Imran Ahmed, collaborated with Israeli embassy officials to censor Pro-Palestine social media accounts and courted them for donations to a censorship obsessed center.
Since emerging in America from seemingly out of the blue in 2020, the Center FOR Countering Digital HATE has become a Transatlantic establishment most effective tools for censoring online speech.
So it's now uh, it's now uh oh, he's wait, he's moved to Dc.
Oh, I didn't know he's.
He's there.
Oh, he's back in in London.
Okay okay, but that's so.
I guess he's a London citizen, but he's operating in the U.s now.
So it's Like, this is like.
The people might not know about This.
ADL gets too much credit.
The Center for Countering Digital Hate does a lot of bad to censor, you know, ideas.
Well, it turns out that the Israeli government is directly petitioning them to ban critics, and they're going to the tech companies and they're obliging.
So, people go, Well, why are you talking about Israel?
And they did it to some of my friends in this uncover.
A couple of my friends got their lives ruined.
One person ended up having health issues over this as well.
I'm not going to get too in the details, so I don't out who they are, but over what they did to their life.
And it's like the Israeli government is ruining my friends' lives.
Now, on top of just like the idea of killing innocent people, people can say, Well, I don't care about what's going on in their country.
The censorship in our country is being spearheaded by the Israeli government.
Seriously, as annoying as all the wokeists are for trying to censor people for saying not politically correct things, having a foreign national government intervening in the United States with American companies to silence American citizens is absolutely outrageous.
And that ought to cost just that alone.
Never even mind the slaughter of 100,000 innocent people over there over the last year and a few months.
Just their war against our First Amendment and our sacred right of free speech ought to be the end of any goodwill that Americans have for this terrible little country.
I mean, somebody names something Israel has ever done for the United States of America.
People say, Oh, well, they helped Obama arm al-Qaeda in Syria, but that was Obama helping them.
That was because Bush had empowered the Shiites in Iraq.
So, Obama was helping make up for it by taking them down a peg in Damascus.
That was Israel-centric policy, trying to break the Iran-Damascus, Hezbollah axis there.
So, what have they ever done for us?
Someone on Twitter said, Well, what about Egypt when they fought Egypt for us?
But we could have been friends with Nasser if it wasn't for Israel.
We'd have never had to push him toward the Soviet Union in the first place back then.
This is all in there's a great book called Devil's Game by Robert Dreyfus, where he shows how we didn't have to be enemies with Egypt in the first place, anyway.
So, then you say, Oh, well, oh, good thing Israel was there to help limit Soviet influence when they were the whole reason that America had pushed Egypt into Soviet arms in the first place, and on and on.
That's it.
I can't think of a thing.
You know, we did Iraq War I and Iraq War II very much under Israeli influence, especially Iraq War II.
But they couldn't fight in either of those wars.
We couldn't bring them with us to help in the war.
That would have blown up the whole war.
That's made it 100 times more difficult because of how obvious it was that we were doing it to serve Israeli interests.
So, we did it for them.
There was this great historian who wrote a thing in the American Conservative in 2003.
He said, I've been a student of world history my whole life.
I can't think of another time that a satellite had an empire come and fight its war for it.
And the satellite didn't have to fight at all.
But the empire came and did their dirty war for them.
It's the flea wagon the dog, as my friend Adam Heyman says.
Well, you know, I think I was considering my, so people say, What are your solutions?
So, I'd like to start a police.
Uh, I'd like, we don't have to put that up.
Uh, I'd like to start a police team.
And we are a DUI squad, right?
And we go around the Capitol building, but instead of arresting people for being under the influence of drugs and alcohol, it's under the influence of Israeli occupation and control.
And we go, Excuse me, you've been, can you please come here real fast?
Sir, please show me your license and your account history.
I'd like to see your deposits, right?
I want to see what people are giving you.
And then I'd also like to know, we'll do a background check to see if they have any sexual blackmail on themselves and if they've been to a little island called Little St. James, maybe, or a Diddy freak off party.
Everyone's so compromised.
And look, I'm telling you, I haven't been in media for very long and I've had people try to blackmail me.
They said, we're going to lie.
We're going to try to ruin your reputation.
And we're going to say this stuff publicly if you don't either stop talking about this or you don't go away or you stop bothering us.
And I've told them, you know what?
Fuck you.
Suck my dick.
And, you know, did they go and do what they said?
They did.
Did it do a little bit of collateral damage?
Maybe.
But their lives fucking suck now.
And now you can't really hurt me because the amount of the amount of lies now that people have said about me publicly in sequence.
I mean, once it gets down to the pedophile accusations, you know, you're getting pretty low.
You know, it's like, he's a prodophile.
And it's like, okay, now we're here.
And then it's like, they get down to, then once they get to the one, too, like, you're secretly gay.
You're like, I thought it was a good thing.
Why are we, why are we accusing people of secrets now?
If I'm gay, that's good, right?
I'm gay.
You know, I like, I like, there you go.
I'm gay.
What does it do?
But I mean, like, you know, if I'm just a small guy and I was talking about feminism and Israel and stuff and I got problems, like serious problems from it, you know, they try to kick me out of mainstream, you know, conservative media altogether.
And I start my own company and do all this stuff to survive.
And now we're thriving.
I imagine at higher levels, how many people are more dumb, more, more stupid, walk into honeypots into traps and get genuine blackmail or they're just they're just weak.
And I think a lot of people are like, you know, they may have had an affair or they may do something and it's like they got elected as a conservative.
You know, they're part of their church.
They're out there.
I think it's really easy.
I think people are very easy to blackmail.
It's like, dude, well, we're going to tell the whole public your life's over.
And people will do and dance, you know, they'll dance for the Israelis.
I mean, just like you're saying, people try to bribe you and it doesn't work.
They try to bribe them and it does.
You know, it's just like the old saying about con artists, right?
Is they target other criminals, right?
They target people who want to cheat.
Hey, I know a guy who can get you an extra percent, extra special deal in the stock market because he knows some people, right?
This is how Bernie Madoff ripped off so many people is because people were willing to trade on the idea that they knew he was corrupt.
And they thought that if they gave their money to this corrupt guy, he was going to make extra money for them because apparently he's so connected and, you know, so has others so compromised that people with him make extra money.
But of course, so those corrupt people were getting ripped off all along.
He was the one, you know, he was corrupt, all right, but they were the ones getting scammed.
And so, yeah, that's how it is.
That's, you know, my original childhood political education was in Star Wars.
And that's the story of the Imperial Senate, too, was that this Palpatine guy had an entire galactic senate to buy off.
It wasn't that hard.
It just took a while, you know, but like you're saying, he just found which senators had which weakness and then played it off.
This guy gambles too much.
We compromise him on money.
This guy's got sexual peccadillos.
We'll compromise him with that.
And then you just go down the line.
As, you know, we were talking, I was talking with your producers here before the show that, and this is in the book, The Israel Lobby by Mearsheimer and Walt.
Yes, they do.
And Grant F. Smith, the great author Grant F. Smith, shows, he's done the best job of showing the dirty tricks that the Israelis play in America.
But with his great series.
But in The Israel Lobby by Mearsheimer and Walt, they say, you know, so much of what the Israel lobby does is just play the game of democracy.
I mean, frankly, they've got money and the Zionist movement always has.
You know, these peasants from Eastern Europe who had this crazy Zionist dream, they made a deal with Lord Rothschild in England and he was a zillionaire, right?
And that was from the very beginning, right?
It's always been an extremely well-financed movement and organization.
So, what does that really mean?
What it really means, what it really comes down to, lawyers and secretaries, lots of them.
Office buildings full of women dealing with file cabinets full of paperwork, detailing who is who, who gets what, who needs a phone call, who needs an email, who needs a letter, which state organization has a meeting coming up, who's new in the House, who hasn't been talked to yet.
Whatever it is, they're just organized, man.
It takes people to do paperwork to lobby that effectively.
You got 535 seats in the House and the Senate.
Your job is control them all.
And so, they do their very best to control them all.
And I can't remember who it was.
I wish I had a better footnote for this, but I'm sure people could find it and probably numerous examples of this.
Where when someone first announces that they're running for the U.S. Congress, immediately someone from APAC will come to them and say, here's your pro-Israel letter, sign on the dotted line.
And for most of these people, they don't know or care anything about Israel one way or the other anyway.
They're just regular Americans.
They're raised up with the common notion that, geez, I guess we like the Israelis.
They're our friends, right?
So you're telling me to sign this I like Israel letter?
Fine.
And they sign it.
If not, well, they're screwed.
You don't want to play ball.
We're going to finance your opponent in the primary.
And if you win the primary anyway, then we'll see you in the fall.
And if you win in the fall, we'll see you in two years.
And we will not forget, your name will stay on a piece of paper in a file cabinet, and it will be someone's job to have your ass two years from now.
So any other lobby in America wishes they were just this well organized.
It's really no different than the game that the AARP plays or that Archer Daniels Midland plays or that Lockheed plays or any of the rest of them.
It's just a matter of, hey, Congressman, if you know what's good for you, you're going to do what's good for me.
And if you bring the juice, then you can talk that way.
I want to talk about this corruption, how it works, like how the Israeli capture of government.
I want to break this down.
You're really spitting fire here.
And I have an example of a friend that this happened to publicly, and you can look it up, how they keep Texas in this neutral state.
You think, how is Texas bleeding red?
So pro-Israel.
Why are they banning Gab?
And why is the governor banning Gab in front of Israeli flags?
I don't know if you know that, the website.
They banned him, said we don't want anti-Semitism here.
How is the lone star state of freedom and independence giving two shits about a little country overseas?
We're going to explain it all to you.
We're going to have a discussion about it.
But I want to remind you guys this, listen, you know, we're demonetized like everywhere.
If you're watching on YouTube, you know, wherever you are, we don't make money on social media.
I was one of the first people other than Dom Lucre, like demonetized on X2, I think.
One of the first people for just sharing a news story.
They don't like us, but that's why we're not the only people.
Apparently, everyone hates Mike Lindell too and my pillow.
You guys know we're perfect.
I always tell people I'm not perfect, but I am pretty damn close.
But Mike Lindell runs MyPillow.
They're an American-made company with extremely comfortable pillows.
Look, you know, you need pillows.
They have slippers.
You actually should get a pair of slippers.
I'm not actually joking.
You should try one.
They're very, very comfortable.
They're on sale and they're very, very comfortable and padding.
They have girls' slippers.
My wife has a pair.
They have robes, everything you need.
But right now, if you use my promo code Elijah, you can get their pillows for $14.98.
They're usually $50.
Plus, on top of that, you can also get what is the robes, the slippers.
I'm just going to highly recommend the slippers.
They're usually like $130, I think, but they're like $50 right now or something.
And they feel like $130 billed.
I don't know if you know about like what the original UGGS 1975 or 1974 was in Australia.
These feel like the actual like leather, nice double stitched.
They've got thick padding.
It's not thin and the fur is like really insulated.
My only downside to them is I live in Florida.
So it's like they actually make my feet kind of hot sometimes because it's never cold here, but it's been cold for like seven days.
I've been wearing my slippers every day, which has been like pretty fantastic.
And I love walking around in them.
My son likes to wear them, and my wife loves hers too.
So get those pillows.
Queen size are 1898 and king size are 1998.
Because this is practical stuff.
Tell your parents, send people my link and give them Elijah as the code.
And tell your parents, go buy new pillows for the house and stuff.
Support the show.
We just expanded.
We got a team and we're growing.
We have some great products ahead.
Like I said at the end, we'll talk about a new project we have going.
It's a new concept with a familiar face, is actually the tagline.
So it's like we're finding a way to skirt around the sensors and try to grow on YouTube again.
So support us directly with my pillow, promo code Elijah, E-I-J-A-H.
Or if you are over the age of 60, call 1-800-210-8491.
I just don't know who would call to order pillows, but you can.
Honestly, if you're lonely too, they didn't say you have to order pills, you'd be drunk and just chat to some woman.
You know, I don't know.
I can't say they'll give you any pleasure, but it might be a fun time.
It's just Mike on the other line, just like with a Mexican accent.
Like, hello?
You want to buy a pillow?
No, but it's really great.
Anyway, we're going to be talking about the occupation of the United States government, the capture, and a few other topics with Scott Horton, who's an expert.
He has his book debunked that's currently out.
And we're going to talk about that a little bit as well, but then we'll explain why we're not going to talk about it too much tonight.
But make sure you pick up a copy of his new book if you like someone who's honest about the world.
Provoked was debunking all the lies about overseas, the war in Ukraine, particularly what's going on and what's happening there.
And it's really, really good.
We have the copy of it, but I don't know.
It must be in the other room.
We'll get at that break.
We're going on a five-minute break here, and we'll see you for the second half of the show.
Don't go anywhere.
Make sure you continue watching.
And if we're on YouTube or whatever, make sure you subscribe to our new YouTube channel below because this YouTube channel, this is the last stream, is becoming a clips channel.
So it's just going to be clips.
So if you're watching on YouTube, this show will be broken up into some clips.
Our editor will be working on them.
But you got to make sure that you subscribe to the new channel if you want to watch full shows and live streams.
And if and when we get monetized at the show, we'll probably go there too eventually.
And we'll start doing super chats and stuff.
But we got to rebuild because they fucked us over.
So check out the new YouTube channel, subscribe below.
you in five minutes.
I just downloaded your guys' comments and sent them into Raytheon Tech Executives.
You're all going to prison.
That being said, Plevian also said, You guys are the most pathetic racists I have ever seen.
Let's get this shit right.
Thank you very much.
Give a little cheer.
Thank you for that.
I was really appreciated.
Also, on there, said influencers need a break too.
No, no, we just go give a break at the hour.
It allows us to fix our problems, work on our marriages, and get the dick growing serum going because we got some big balls going in this topic here.
It is pretty crazy.
Someone else has said, anyone remember when Ben Cream Pied Elijah Live?
Oh my gosh, these are disgusting.
These are filthy people, and you need to repent.
Go to confession this weekend.
That being said, I'm here with Scott Horton.
He's the author of a new book.
You got to check it out.
We're talking about the occupation of Israel in our government.
So the book Provoked is the subtitle is How Washington Started the New Cold War with Russia and the Catastrophe in Ukraine.
And yeah, it's thick enough that the paperback will stand up.
That's crazy.
It's everything that Bush Sr., Bill Clinton, Bush Jr., Barack Obama, Donald Trump, and Joe Biden, and of course, John McCain and Hillary Clinton and the rest of the usual suspects did to provoke the new Cold War with Russia and the war.
And it does start with the end of the Cold War, the last Cold War, and the Bush Senior administration deciding clearly that rather than also coming home and cashing our peace dividend and being a normal country in a normal time, that they would expand the empire.
We're number one.
We're the only superpower now.
What we say goes.
And so they expanded our influence into the Middle East and they expanded our influence into Eastern Europe in both cases, provoking horrific wars as the predictable blowback.
So my last book was enough already about how they turned their own terrorist mercenaries in Al-Qaeda against the United States, kicking off the 20-year terror war.
And as we were discussing before, implementing Benjamin Netanyahu's clean break plan to destroy the Middle East.
And then in Europe, they expanded our military commitments in NATO, instituted missile defense systems, did color-coded revolutions, and especially worked to essentially colonize Ukraine and make Ukraine a sock puppet satellite state of the United States, which was, of course, a bridge too far for the Russians who decided to prevent that.
Well, shortly enough, by the way, it's a quick read, if you guys want to know.
It's called a weekend read.
So if you have your weekend, if you're on another planet and your weekends are like two years, no, but this is not only, and also look at the text size, too.
So let's talk about a little bit about this and the war.
So, okay, America's captured, right?
We hear that statement.
And you have people that go a little bit, I'd say, too spurgy on this topic in terms of like, they'll start reading the Talmud on my show.
And I'm like, what the hell?
That's fine.
And I like these people.
I like spurgy people a lot.
But I want to come at it from a perspective for people that are turned off by those people, right?
There's people in the chat.
They hear about Israel.
It's like, oh, here we go again.
And they just get turned off.
It's like, yeah, let me guess.
The Holocaust didn't happen.
You're like, I didn't say it.
You did.
No, but they go, they make these statements and they just, they hear it and they're like, I'm done.
So let's talk about it from for an educated person, considering that someone's, you know, maybe wants to talk to their family or their friends and explain this stuff to them.
That statement, the American government is occupied by Israel.
Well, I mean, Pat Buchanan said that Capitol Hill was Israeli occupied territory, right?
And he just meant that it's a figure of speech, meaning that they just have way too much power and influence.
This foreign government.
If you look at it from their point of view, Elijah, of course, it makes sense why Israel's highest national security concern is a close relationship with the United States and that the United States, the most powerful nation in the world, will be its friend and will protect it if need be.
The problem is, they don't do anything for us.
It's not in the American people's interest to support this country whatsoever.
So they can lie and try to pretend that, oh, see, your enemies are our enemies, but that's not just a coincidence.
That's them making enemies for us.
Okay.
So that doesn't actually sound good at all.
That's bad.
So it comes down to essentially money and control.
And as we know, if it really comes down to it, blackmail to make sure that people stay under control.
And when we're talking about blackmail, most famously in this era, as everyone knows, they were having young American girls raped so that they could blackmail American businessmen and academics and politicians into serving Israel or certainly not crossing them.
And that's what the whole Jeffrey Epstein island was about and his mansion in New York and his estate out in New Mexico was bringing people to rape children.
Or, you know, I don't know if it's always like under 12s.
I think probably a lot of it is, hey, we're having a party at my house.
And then, hey, remember how you got lucky last night?
Well, it turns out you thought she was 21, but she was only 16.
That was the Epstein operation for a very long time.
I mean, even in the Daily Beast, they ran a story about how the guy was Masad.
Everybody knew that he was Masad.
That was who he worked for.
And, you know, even the Netflix special, and I'm not the world's greatest expert on this.
I refer people to Ryan Dawson, who's done the best work on this.
But we should have him on the way.
As Ryan pointed out, I think it was Ryan that pointed out.
If you watch closely at the end of the Netflix documentary where they're interviewing one of the Epstein victims, she's done a painting of her whole crazy experience here.
And she has Epstein sort of off in the corner.
And it's Lex Wexner or Les Wexner is the guy in the UFO or whatever in the middle of the painting, clearly like the center of the object of the painting.
They don't ask her about that.
But, you know, clearly this is all Israeli and an Israeli intelligence operation and always was.
And so, look, resent it.
I mean, I take that like a third-degree burn.
What do you mean they ever did that a single time ever?
I mean, this means war.
Are you kidding me?
These are the same people who lied us into Iraq.
Well, I still have a chip on my shoulder about that too.
I want you to tell them, you know, because we were talking about the fact that you were on the money about going against the Iraq war.
We talk about that in our other discussion a lot.
You've been on the money.
And I told the audience for that show that, you know, you're often right about things when it's not financially beneficial and it's actually very costly.
You know, in 2025, when people are like, I didn't take the vaccine.
They're like, oh, very brave of you.
Say that in 2021, you know, when you didn't do it, you know, when you had your big, you know, Fox contract or whatever, you didn't do it because the cost was too high.
I'm glad you chose now to speak the truth, but that's what everybody knows, you know?
And at a certain point, right, talking about Iraq and these things, if you came against the CIA's narrative with the military-industrial complex, you were labeled as un-American and a terrorist sympathizer.
The same tactics we see today with the Israel conflict.
If you don't support Israel, you're a Hamas supporter, right?
You're pro-Hamas.
But I know that I was always shocked because they lied us in by saying that there was weapons of mass destruction.
And you said there was apparently a, that's not entirely a lie, or at least it almost wasn't a lie.
So I was telling you about my wife, and she used to be a reporter for Ross Story.
And one of her stories that she did then was, and this is something, people still ask me about this from time to time, actually, that, well, if they were lying about the weapons of mass destruction, why didn't they just plant some?
And one of her stories was they actually did have a plan to do so, but it fell apart.
I believe, I forget if it was CIA or military guys.
I believe it was there were CIA officers who were involved who were who refused to go along and carry out the thing.
So essentially they just canceled it.
There was too many moving parts and it wasn't going to work.
I forget exactly how it shook out, but that was one of her stories that they had.
Yeah, he had to go with the FBI because they found like, I'm not going to, you know, accuse him of anything, but like someone in the company found like some sort of stuff being planted on their devices.
And if I got the story right, they end up going to the FBI because they're like, who's doing this?
And the FBI is like that picture of Spider-Man.
Like, wait, what?
Someone's planting stuff on your computer.
Of course, that didn't work.
So they just, you know, bankrupted him, you know, down his hole.
But then you saw that secret under footage from James O'Keeffe.
Well, another, there was even another one before that was saying that the CIA was directly involved in pushing the Parkland families to create the civil lawsuit and directly, you know, sue him to try to cripple him at the knees.
So it's like all these narratives, somehow it always traces back to like DNI, you know, FBI, CIA, you know, and there's always NSA somewhere involved in all this.
But I think that's kind of funny that it's like the narratives get out before the action.
So it's like, there's weapons of mass destruction.
If you go back to 2001 and 2002, if you were not just waving the flag, go along, Bill O'Reilly watching Republican, and you were critical at all, then you knew better.
There's so many people who knew better.
And it's true that a lot of them were just Democrats.
And so therefore they didn't believe in Bush and they just didn't jump on the bandwagon because it wasn't their bandwagon.
Fine.
But it was easy to be right about it.
I knew a guy, good guy named Fernando, and his father had been some low-level guy at the UN.
And all that meant was that he had a passing acquaintance with foreign policy and the rest of the world, right?
It didn't mean everything.
He didn't know a lot, but he just knew a little.
And what he knew was that Saddam Hussein with the olive green and the mustache and the French beret is not in bed with Osama bin Laden with the beard and the robe and the suicide legions.
It was a lie.
It was a blatant, ridiculous lie.
And anybody who knew anything about that stuff knew it was a lie.
Dick Cheney said, well, Iraq is, you know, sort of the geographical center of where this stuff comes out of.
Yeah, right.
In other words, he's calling your dad stupid and he's saying, you're too stupid to see through this lie.
That's it.
He was lying.
And the neoconservatives, too, the whole game was written in 1996 by David Wormser and Richard Pearl, two of the neoconservative faction ringleaders.
And they wrote it for Netanyahu, who was then incoming prime minister the first time in 96.
And it was the end of Oslo.
The guy who sought the Oslo peace deal to give up the West Bank in Gaza, partially, not for a real full-fledged state.
It was kind of a screw job, but it was still far better than what they ended up ever being offered after that anyway.
But a Netanyahu fan murdered him, shot him in the back and killed him at Yitzhak Rabin in 1995.
And then his successor, Perez, was short-lived.
And then Netanyahu came in in 96.
And Wormser has this plan.
It's called the Clean Break.
And I urge everyone to read it.
You can find it on my website, scotthorton.org.
It's called A Clean Break, A New Strategy for Securing the Realm.
And there's a companion piece called Coping with Crumbling States.
And there's actually a book that they wrote called Tyranny's Ally, which is the long version, but same thing.
Anyway, so the Clean Break says this.
It says, the problem for Israel is Israel wants to throw the Oslo peace process in the trash.
Israel doesn't want to give up the West Bank and Gaza Strip to be an independent Palestinian state.
Israel wants to steal all that land and keep it and to hell with the Palestinians.
But the problem with that is they have to deal with their neighbors.
And particularly, they have to deal with an armed and angry Hezbollah on their northern flank.
Now, that's only a consequence of their invasion of Lebanon in 1982 and their ruthless persecution of the local Shiites there, which caused the rise of Hezbollah to fight them.
But whatever.
Now that Hezbollah is a problem, that means we can't steal the West Bank and Gaza Strip as long as Hezbollah is there in the north shooting bombs at us.
So what I'm about to say makes no sense, but this is what they thought.
Picture the map of the Middle East in your head, everybody here now.
The problem is Iran uses Syria to arm Hezbollah.
So what we want to do is we want to get rid of Saddam Hussein in Iraq.
Now, Saddam is the secular Sunni sitting on a supermajority Shiite population.
He's the roadblock in the Shiite-Iranian alliance of power in the region.
So these guys, just on the face of it, what they're saying here makes no sense.
But they think that they're smart and they're not.
Their plan is once we overthrow Saddam Hussein, the original plan was we'll replace him with a Hashemite king, the cousin of the king of Jordan.
They changed that to their friend Ahmed Chalabi, who is an Iraqi exile and who furnished a lot of the lies about the weapons.
We'll make him the dictator.
But either way, we will control the Iraqi Shiites.
They're just extras in our movie.
They have no will of their own, no power of their own that we'll have to contend with, no relationship with Iran next door that could become a problem.
They'll just do whatever we say because we're the big green army.
We're the USA.
We're the superpower.
We get what we want.
So if we invade this country and overthrow Saddam, we will control the Iraqi Shia and we'll use the Iraqi Shia to tell Hezbollah in Lebanon to stop being friends with Iran.
And then that way, Hezbollah will be compliant.
And now Israel can steal the West Bank and Gaza Strip from the Palestinians without having to worry about Hezbollah shooting rockets at them from the north.
Well, what have we just lived through?
A year of Hezbollah shooting rockets at them from the north while they were trying to steal the West Bank and Gaza Strip because the clean break didn't work.
The clean break was a disaster.
That was the thinking behind Iraq War II.
So then what happened in Iraq War II, 2003 through 8, 11?
They overthrew Saddam.
They took the Shiite revolution all the way to Baghdad.
They installed the Supreme Islamic Council and the Dawah Party and the Mahdi Army coalition, the United Iraqi Alliance in power.
And they were Iran's best friends.
America doesn't control Baghdad and lord it over Baghdad.
These same people told Bush, thanks for putting us in power.
Now get the hell out.
Beat it and don't let the door hitch you in the ass on the way out because why?
They didn't need us.
They're the super majority and they're allied with the Iranians next door.
So Baghdad to this day is hardly under America's thumb.
They're under our thumbnail, right?
Because we kind of we hold ISIS over their head and say, you need us to protect you from ISIS.
And we protect, you know, we have Americans stationed in Iraqi Kurdistan in the north protecting oil resources there.
And we hold ISIS and then bin Ladenites over Baghdad's head a little bit.
So they allow a few thousand troops there.
But essentially, that war completely backfired and put Iran's best friends in power.
Well, so this is, again, Netanyahu's war and Netanyahu's guys, these neoconservatives, not just only were they Lakudniks, but they were Netanyahu's guys.
The prime minister at the time was Ariel Sharon, and the two of their big disagreement was over Iraq and Iran.
Sharon hated Iran more.
Netanyahu wanted to go after Saddam.
But once he succeeded in getting America to go after Saddam, what did he do?
He empowered Iran.
And now what have we heard our entire lives since then?
Benjamin Netanyahu and his men saying we have to attack Iran because they're the ones who just empowered it by 500%.
Well, look, I got to tell you, and I'm glad I have this opportunity to say this on your show.
And I'm trying to say this.
Remember to talk about this on as many shows as I can.
I think that we are greatly at a greatly increased risk of al-Qaeda-style terrorism, bin Laden-style terrorism in this country.
I think we saw an example of that in New Orleans on New Year's Eve.
You know, they say that that guy recorded video rants all the way to New Orleans and posted them on Facebook, but we've never seen those.
And I bet you dimes to dollars, dollars to dimes.
This is the other way it goes, that he talks about the Gaza Strip and talks about Israel's merciless bombing of those poor Palestinian people for the last year as part of his motivation to do that attack.
And I say that just because I've been predicting it for a year and it'd be crazy to think that our government can just do these things to people around the world and think that they're not going to cause terrible consequences for us.
As Ron Paul lectured Rudy Giuliani in the famous Giuliani moment in May of 2007, that if the government adopts this attitude, they put our people in peril.
You're putting the people of the United States in danger, acting like you can just behave this way without causing blowback.
And just look at what one jerk with a truck can do if he's determined to hurt people with it.
Look at the just apparently random kooks.
I don't know if they're crank addicts or who starting fires in L.A., but just think about if 10 bin Ladenites had a plan to do that deliberately, going from neighborhood to neighborhood to neighborhood, deliberately setting those fires.
It could destroy that whole city in a 100 mile an hour.
And any one man, or especially any team of five men with just semi-automatic rifles, could do so much damage.
I mean, there was a kid just a few weeks ago, a couple of months ago, shot up a school here in Florida, 14-year-old boy, killed, what, three or four people before, and there just happened to be cops around the corner who were brave and confronted him and stopped him.
I don't even think they killed him.
I think they made him drop it and they stopped him.
And this was in just a few months ago, and he killed a few people.
And he's a 14-year-old, which in other words, by definition, he didn't know what the hell he was doing.
Imagine angry and determined and trained men in just two or three teams of five or ten could do absolutely incredible damage.
I'm going to get myself in trouble with this, but whatever.
The 9-11 truthers, really, they're the limited hangout.
They say if you say blowback is what caused it, that that's the limited hangout.
You have to tell the whole truth that Dick Cheney and Israel or whatever did it.
But that's the limited hangout because what it does is it precludes the whole real argument of what motivated those men to hijack those planes and hit those towers.
It wasn't bombs that brought those towers down.
It was the hijacked planes.
And then the North Tower hit Building 7.
It was severely damaged and burned all day and it fell.
All these cranks with all their misinformation.
They just got it totally wrong.
And then they ended up covering for the guys who did it, really.
I mean, for one example, they said that Donald Rumsfeld shot a missile at the Pentagon while he was sitting in the son of a bitch.
Well, first of all, that's stupid and wrong.
Second of all, man, the whole key to September 11th is the Flight 77 pilots.
Those were the guys that the CIA tracked from Malaysia to Bangkok to Los Angeles a year and a half before, who were staying with an FBI informant, who were clearly double agents recruited by Saudi intelligence and closely monitored by the CIA and yet somehow hit that Pentagon anyway.
And now people just jump to conclusions.
They just want to always jump to conclusions so bad.
Oh, the CIA made them do it.
The CIA helped them do it.
All they wanted was to hit their own Pentagon.
But in fact, if you look at the history of all of these guys, they were perfectly happy to fight America's enemies in, say, for example, Serbia or in Chechnya fighting against the Russians.
It was American support for Israel slaughtering innocent people in Palestine and in Lebanon.
And it was American occupation of Saudi Arabia to bomb Iraq and blockade Iraq from those bases.
That was what motivated al-Qaeda, America's mercenaries, America, Britain, and Saudi Arabia's private fundamentalist Sunni, you know, radical bin Ladenite mercs to turn on the United States.
And in fact, Mohammed Atta and Ramzi bin al-Shib.
Mohammed Atta was the lead hijacker on September 11th, Flight 11, and his best friend, Ramzi bin al-Shib, is in Guantanamo to this day, helped to coordinate the attack.
Both of them signed their last will and testament, which was essentially like joining the army in their mind, as soon as Rabin's successor, Shimon Perez, took power and launched Operation Grapes of Wrath and invaded southern Lebanon and started killing people.
And in fact, it was later Israeli prime minister Naftali Bennett who called in an airstrike or an artillery strike on a UN shelter and killed 106 women and children.
And then bin Laden put out his declaration of war against the United States a couple of months later in the summer of 96.
And in that declaration of war, he invoked the Khanna massacre.
It's now called the first Khanna massacre because they did it again in 2006.
But he said he invoked the Khanna massacre.
He said, we'll never forget the severed heads and arms and legs of the babies and children in Khanna.
We're coming for you.
You think your blood is blood, but our blood is water.
We'll show you.
And so Mohammed Atta and Ramzi bin al-Shib said, hey, this is our guy.
So now you have Egyptian engineering students travel to Afghanistan to volunteer to follow a Saudi to suicide bomb Americans as revenge for what Israel is doing in Lebanon.
And instead of telling us the truth about that, George Bush said they hate us for our freedom.
And Alex Jones said, oh, Dick Cheney did it just because he wants to have a war.
And completely covered up the fact that what happened was the Israelis mercilessly slaughtered women and children.
And that motivated individual human men to make decisions to join together to fight against us.
And so what's the alternative?
Explanation.
Apparently, Bill Clinton can bomb whoever he wants.
And Shimon Perez can bomb whoever he wants and will never suffer any blowback from that.
If there's blowback, it was always an inside job.
If a guy crashes a truck in New Orleans, everyone on Twitter jumps to say it had to have been a double, triple blind fake out.
Who needs a super sophisticated explanation for that?
And I guarantee you, just like Omar Mateen, when he slaughtered all those people at the nightclub in Orlando, remember what they did?
They said he was a repressed homosexual and he hated himself because his religion says that all true Islams have to hate gays.
And so he wanted to kill himself, but instead he killed a bunch of gay people and whatever.
Guess what?
He wasn't gay at all.
That was a total lie, a total hoax from beginning to end.
The only reason he picked the Pulse nightclub is because it was first in the Google results because he was going to attack Disney World, but he decided they had too much security there.
So instead he picked the first nightclub that came up on his search results.
unidentified
And one of the first things he said when he got there was, where's all the girls?
And then he went ahead and he slaughtered everybody anyway.
And there were some women in there.
And then the people, when they were finally allowed to tell the truth, the people who were locked in the bathroom with him said he was ranting for an hour and a half or whatever, as long as he was in there, ranting about American foreign policy.
And he wrote all about it on Facebook.
And then finally, we got the 911 transcripts where he's screaming at the 911 operator.
And so he had solidarity with the people that Barack Obama was killing.
And why was Obama bombing Syria?
Remember?
Because Obama had built a caliphate.
And now he had to blow it back up again.
And so he was mercilessly bombing Syria and killing women and children.
So Omar Mateen then killed a bunch of innocent people as revenge for that.
Same thing happened in San Bernardino.
Was that a false flag attack when the guy massacred a bunch of people at a city council meeting in San Bernardino?
There was a guy named Zazi who he was not entrapped by the FBI.
He was busted by the FBI on his way to bomb a subway in New York City.
And I'll be the first to tell you there's a great book called The Terror Factory by Trevor Aronson.
He's a wonderful journalist and I was good on this before he was, but he just wrote the book about it.
So all credit to him.
But there are so many fake entrapments, FBI entrapments of innocent people.
The Liberty City 7, the Detroit 5, the Fort Dix pizza plot, the New York synagogues, the Lodi, California, the Portland Christmas tree.
There's so many of them that were put-ons by the FBI.
I'm not talking about that.
I'm talking about ones that were not put on by the FBI.
Ones that like the Boston massacre, for example, where the FBI was actually in the middle of entrapping some guy into a fake plot to attack the Pentagon with remote control planes while this real plot to bomb the Boston massacre was unfolding right under their nose.
And why do they overlook it?
Because America likes the terrorists in Chechnya.
So if Russia is warning about terrorists from Chechnya, eh, we don't pay much mind to that.
Because that's the way our government thinks because they like the terrorists when they're doing America's dirty work.
But anyway, that's a long rant, but I'm just saying I'm terrified.
I think that what just happened in New Orleans is going to continue to happen.
And I would remind people, I was told this by, I was a cab driver.
And after September 11th, American airlines pilots, I used to take them to work in the morning from the holiday in.
And they all agreed.
And I asked them and they all agreed.
And they told me any five guys could do that.
Any five guys can take over a plane and steer it into a landmark.
These things are made by monkeys for other monkeys to drive, dude.
And if you have some training on a Boeing 737, you can pilot one.
Or they were flying 757s, I guess, mostly that day, I think it was.
But yes, you could, even on the way here, I could see nuclear power plants out the window.
If you got control of one of those planes, you could steer it into the nuclear power plant.
There's nothing stopping them from doing that other than access to the United States.
It's another issue, the wide open border.
And as we talked about before, not just Mexican migrant labor, but people from all over the world who have, we have no idea who they are coming into the country, who very well.
And I try not to play into this whole thing.
Oh, the Muslims are coming to get us.
The Muslims are coming to get us.
I'm saying the bin Ladenites are coming to get us.
And that is a political radicalization, much more than a religious one.
And it's one that our government is directly responsible for.
Well, yeah, I just was reminded, as someone in the chat reminded us all, that the Benghazi attack, right, obviously was due to a YouTube video, you know, that they were making.
In Benghazi, the Libyans who had joined Al-Qaeda in Iraq and fought against the Americans in Iraq War II, they came home and then Obama took their side.
Just as Obama is killing Osama in Pakistan, he's taking his side in Libya.
And this is the Libyan Islamic fighting group and Ansar al-Sharia.
And he helps them.
He fights a nine-month war to help them kill Qaddafi and overthrow Qaddafi.
And then it's Benghazi attack, the scandalous attack happens one year later, September 11th, 2012.
What's going on?
Why is Chris Stevens, the ambassador, why is he in Benghazi at a consulate in the east instead of at the embassy in Tripoli in the West?
And the answer is because he's overseeing a covert operation to funnel jihadist terrorists and weapons from Qaddafi stocks on to the next dirty war in Syria.
America has already switched sides back to the bin Ladenites because they had empowered the Shiites in Iraq War II.
So now it's the redirection.
We got to make up for that.
And the Saudis and the Israelis hated Qaddafi anyway because he supported the Palestinians and he had broken oil deals with the Saudis and so forth.
So they wanted him gone.
And so they had stationed this guy, Christopher Stevens, in the middle of a hornet's nest.
And I think this is a perfect metaphor for the entire damn project from Jimmy Carter all the way through.
Just because you're helping bin Ladenites kill people doesn't mean that they love and respect you.
Doesn't mean that you've bought their loyalty.
So the whole time that Bill Clinton, for example, is our country's being attacked by Al-Qaeda.
They killed our guys or tried to kill him at a hotel in Yemen in 92.
They bombed the World Trade Center in 93, which yes, the FBI could have stopped that, but didn't put them up to it.
They just failed to stop it.
They attacked our guys at the Saudi National Guard training in 95, the Khobar Towers barracks attack in 96, the Africa Embassy attack in 98, the USS Cole in 2000.
Bill Clinton's still backing them the whole time.
Those were not CIA false flag operations that I just named there.
That was bin Laden attacking us, trying to get us to attack him back, trying to provoke an attack from us deliberately.
And I don't know if they helped with the cleansing of Nagorno-Karabakh.
Now, Azerbaijan, they're not bin Ladenites.
They're Shiites and a separate issue.
But the Israelis absolutely do have interest there.
And in fact, in 07, they were building airstrips there and were potentially threatening to attack Iran from there, although I don't know if that's still a thing.
But there's no question, and I cover this in my last book, Enough Already, and anybody can find this in the Israeli press and all over the place.
It's one of the two pieces of decent journalism that Mehdi Hassan ever did in his life: interview the former head of Mossad, who openly admits that, yeah, that's right, we gave medical treatment to Al-Qaeda.
We like Al-Qaeda and we helped them out.
America was training their forces in Jordan and was controlling their forces from Turkey, working with Turkey, working with Jordan, Israel, Saudi, and Qatar, especially to back essentially al-Qaeda in Iraq in Syria.
We're talking 10 years ago in the Obama years, in the dirty war.
This is what led to the rise of the caliphate.
Now, once they invaded western Iraq and declared the ISIS caliphate, and Baghdadi, their leader, went up like half Mussolini, half bin Laden in the balcony of the mosque, declaring himself the Caliph Ibrahim and the holy royal dictator or whatever.
Well, that was a bridge too far.
And of course, then Obama had to what?
Had to align with the Shiites that they wish they hadn't fought Iraq War II for.
It was the reason they've been backing the bin Ladenites in Syria.
Now he had to ally with them again in Iraq War III to destroy the ISIS Caliphate again.
Now, the difference this time is that instead of going west and sacking western Iraq, the al-Nusra front, now called Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, they instead went west and they sacked Damascus.
They seized Damascus.
And so I don't know what's going to happen now because, see, when they sacked Western Iraq back then, they're surrounded by enemies.
Their days were numbered.
And frankly, the leaders of Al-Qaeda in Iraq then were far wilder, crazy people than the much more tame and public relations-studied al-Qaeda guys in Syria now.
So they were like Patrick Coburn called them the Islamist Khmer Rouge.
They were just guaranteed to burn themselves out.
They were surrounded by enemies in the Iraqi Kurds, the Iraqi Shiites, the Jordanians, the Syrian Kurds, and the Syrian Arab army, etc.
Whereas now that the Syrian Arab army doesn't exist, the Damascus regime is completely smashed and gone, and they're not surrounded by enemies at all.
And the Iraqi Shia are all the way on the other side of the Iraqi Sunni from them in western, pardon me, in eastern and southern Iraq.
They don't have to worry about the Iraqi Kurds who are also, again, far separate and removed and not a direct threat.
They got their friends in Turkey in the north who sponsor and control them.
And they got their allies in Israel and Jordan to the south.
Their only enemy is Hezbollah to the west.
And they've got their own problems.
They've just got bombed the crap out of by Israel over the last year.
Well, yeah, I mean, I wouldn't be, I don't think it would be a max operation if they weren't hurting.
Yeah, it's like, is it a, is it Maybelline?
Is it a mazad if they don't pull the kids' face up?
Well, you know, I want to say this in terms of timing for the, for the show, you know, you're a treasure trove of information, and I really do enjoy what you're saying.
It's like guys, you have to build like a whole studio to have something.
And then someone's like, I'm just going to call people faggots.
And you're like, okay, there's like some girl that does it all the time.
And it's, I don't know what guys are so desperate that they think that that's like attractive where it's like, yeah.
I don't know.
I'm just not, I'm not, I don't find that like girls pretending to be edgy thing.
You know what I mean?
Like that doesn't capture my attention.
Like in my opinion, most things that women can say, men have already said or can say better.
And I love my wife and it's fantastic.
But like, you know, some girls like, by the way, I'm racist too.
And then some guys are like, oh, dude, she's so bass.
It's like, dude, it's still just a woman.
So you need to be very careful here because, you know, it's the same baggage.
It's like, it's like, it's like it reminds me of the guys who get married four times.
And you're like, you think it's going to be any different here?
Like, you know, you think you figured it out now?
Maybe you should reconsider the approach, you know, because these are very, very delicate and complicated creatures.
And you got to be very careful with them because they, and in many cases, many men are very hurt by women because, you know, women will do a lot of things.
They look very smell good.
They look pretty.
They are nice.
They are nice, but when they're mean, we live in a gynocentric system and they have a lot of destructive power thanks to the courts.
Just like criminals have a lot more power than they should have in a very backward system.
So, you know, the worst parts of women have been have been amplified in our system and the best parts of men have been neutered.
That's why we say it's a big problem in our culture.
They've cut off the strength of men and amplified the destructive nature of women.
And that's a lot of why we have a lot of the problems in our inner culture is that men are unable to lead and women are unable to be controlled.
And they say, well, you want to control women?
Well, all humans are controlled.
And we should be controlling our negative elements.
Men shouldn't be allowed to murder people.
Even if we have the strength to do so, we shouldn't be allowed to walk around and murder people.
That should be illegal.
And no fault divorce should be illegal too, you know, because the fickle nature of a woman's mind, just leaving and going.
If you have kids, you should be required to stay together and raise your kids unless there was some severe reason.
You mentioned that guy, Lex Friedman, earlier, which I actually still this day have never seen an interview by him, but I know who you're talking about.
And if I remember it right, he knew, if I remember right, he knew for a fact that this was true.
He was like reporting this to Greenwald, that he knew that at YouTube, that they had deliberately decided to rig the algorithm to boost Lex Friedman and Ben Shapiro more than anyone else.
And he told about like the anecdote of where liberals will say, oh, man, Ben Shapiro, he's the alt-right or whatever.
And then the YouTube people say, no, no, no.
He's totally tame and safe.
And he's our method.
He's what we use when people are starting to get into alternative right-wing politics.
We feed them a bunch of Ben Shapiro as like a sheepdog to corral them back into mainstream conservatism.
In other words, Zionism.
And to keep this ridiculous, squeaky-voice little boy as somehow the de facto leader of the American conservative movement, which I don't know how in the world any algorithm could have pulled that off, but it's far better than he deserves.
And he or that Lex Friedman guy.
And it's artificial, right?
Lex Friedman is so prominent because they cram him down everybody's throat.
And so they get the idea that, geez, I guess this is where we learn our consensus now.
I've talked about on the show before, but kind of like when you say something and no one's rebuttaled what I've been saying about how Daily Wire fake got all their followers and co-opted the MAGA movement with the agreement that they would steer away the populism underneath Trump into being more about fighting anti-Semitism and sort of neuter it to being like this, this the gatekeepers essentially.
They were literally artificially given power and authority and influence, you know, which made them rich, you know, in order to steer away this raw, racist sort of populism that wanted, you know, get, you know, the Mexicans, some of them are good people kind of mentality into more of this economic and fiscal responsibility and, you know, making sure that we're not really too rude to each other.
I've exposed because the Western Journal and the Gateway Pundit had exposed how the Daily Wire originally with the donors had worked in conjunction with Mark Zuckerberg to buy out and the pages that had been demonetized and throttled that were pro-Trump during the original purge.
And then they were remonetized and somehow they were able to redirect the traffic from the websites to their website.
So they literally artificially captured all of the built-in traffic for the pro-Trump stuff into the Daily Wire and no one knew it.
So they'd type in URLs and get sucked in.
Nothing.
And it was like, it was like sort of like the EV market with Elon Musk.
It wasn't that maybe Tesla was the best.
It's that there was no competition and there still is no competition.
And no American car companies can compete even with what he's already built.
They're way too many years behind.
And so the only people that can come competitive are China.
But if China's blocked, then he's got no competition.
That's why he's so wealthy and the company's so valuable.
But on top of that, that's why like Daily Wire people are so big, not because they were the best.
In fact, that was originally Ben Shapiro's problem.
No one wanted to hear a Shwami Ju complain about Trump.
Trump was popular, right?
And so he's like, no, well, Trump this and Trump bad this and good Trump and bad Trump.
And that was the same time Glenn Beck smashed his face into Cheeto dust.
And Blaze had to turn off the comments on their website because they were getting, you know, spit roasted.
And that's not the same company.
And they have a new CEO now.
And they're a great company.
And now, or at least the CEO there is really, really awesome.
And I feel like he turned the company around from where it was.
And there's W's and said, they've been here like for 15 hours, 14 hour days, sometimes longer.
And you know what?
It's because why?
It's because we all believe in this.
We all believe in telling the truth.
We believe in what you're saying.
And we know that we're not going to get, you know, we have Rod Rumble.
This show's not going to get.
We have 500,000 subscribers on YouTube.
We can't crack like 5,000 views on the video.
And they've deleted our catalog, demonetized us, you know, and that's that's physically impossible to put out 500,000 notifications, get 5,000 views.
The show one day went from like 250,000 views.
They deleted our catalog to like 5,000 views in like a second.
And people always comment on every video.
I didn't know this channel exists.
You can search us and search, type in slightly offensive.
Try this out.
It recommends slightly offensive bullying animations, slightly offensive cartoons, slightly offensive Mr. Beast memes.
What about the channel that's got half a million followers?
Why doesn't it suggest it?
Oh, well, I can tell you why.
It's exactly not just the Israel reasons, a lot of reasons what we talk about.
And it actually all happened originally from our reporting on January 6th, accurate reporting, because I was the guy who filmed Ray Epps start the riot.
And, you know, they talk about misinformation all the time, but all the censorship has been to enforce false narratives, to enforce Russia gate narratives, to enforce COVID narratives, to enforce January 6th and Ukraine war narratives.
Right.
All of which are bullshit.
That's why they have to censor people because it's the truth.
