My friends, if you've been watching the news,
you will have learned that it appears that Iran or Iran has launched swarms and Passes and sorties of kamikaze drones at Israel.
Let me ask this question first.
Why?
Why do you suppose that happened?
Why do you suppose they did that?
I'm asking you, not that Iran would ever have any reason whatsoever.
Why do you think they did this?
This would be the first question I would want to know.
This would be the first question.
And how is it?
They're saying they're on their way.
They're hours to go.
We know they're on their way.
Everybody knows.
Here they come.
They're on their way.
But October the 7th was a complete surprise.
Pearl Harbor, perhaps, as one of our morning friends said, you see what we're doing?
We're asking questions.
But if you ask the wrong question, well, we don't want your questions.
Just do yourself a favor and just shut.
You got it?

My friends, I want you to answer this question because it's the most important question.
You've got to ask why.
Why do you think?
Now, asking why does not in any way justify or explain why a country would be doing anything.
Why?
We don't care about Iran.
What do they know?
They're evil, right?
They're the evil empire.
They're a bunch of theocratic terrorist thugs.
But why do you think?
Did anything happen that might precipitate an attack on Israel?
What do you think about that?
Anything?
Do you think anything might have done this?
I'm just saying, not that it's justified.
No, no, no.
Don't ever show any form or any hint of justification of any type of this.
We're not saying that.
But what we are saying is very simply this.
Why do you think they would do that?
In the name of God, would they do that?
Do you think maybe...
Because Biden said don't.
Do you think maybe the attack on the Iranian consulate next to the embassy in Damascus, do you think that might have been a reason?
Do you think?
Does that come into play?
Iran is supposed to say, don't do anything wrong.
Well, we had it coming.
Now, I'm not justifying this in the least.
But you must ask the question.
And how many of you friends, how many of you dear friends, have friends who don't know anything about this?
Who don't know anything about this?
Who don't know anything about this?
Now, I'm going to give you something.
And this is one of the things, this is one of the most incredibly difficult things for you to do.
And I want you to do this because I know you can and you must be able to because if you're going to be a citizen of the world, you're going to have to be fair.
Remember something.
If you ever find yourself saying something that is Not necessarily in favor of anything that was done, let's say, by Israel.
That does not mean, I don't have to say this, but I will, that you're anti-Semitic.
It does not mean that.
It does not mean you're anti-Scientist.
If you say something, if you are against the policy of the United States, it doesn't mean you're anti-American.
Please, do we all understand this?
Do we all understand this?
Is it possible?
Not your country, your government.
Then you should be able to say something against the government of Israel, if that's what you think, or anybody else.
Do not suspend, do not abnegate, do not give up, do not surrender your rights as an American citizen to opine, to think, to speak, to give an opinion.
As to what you think, okay?
The next thing you must understand if you want to be aware of this is that this has no rules.
This is something where you have to understand something from two different positions.
Israel or Palestine, pick a side.
Go ahead.
If you think you're going to be able to negotiate both sides of this simultaneously, No.
It doesn't work like that.
Pick a side.
Which one do you want?
You can argue, and I think you know, I think you understand that the Israeli point of view says they have the right to defend themselves.
Hamas is a terrorist organization.
October the 7th was a terrorist act.
Hamas is basically Taken over.
It has contaminated itself.
It has entwined itself with all that is Gaza.
And if you want to get rid of Hamas, you have to get rid of whoever it is.
And if you use Gaza as human shields, well, that's the way it goes.
Nothing personal.
If you were an Israeli, if you were, I think, you would say, you know what?
I'll be honest with you.
I want this country to myself.
Would you want to share the country with somebody else?
No.
Can you imagine that if all of a sudden we had to share with the French?
No.
Now, you wouldn't necessarily be requesting or suggesting genocide, though we will discuss that.
If I was, I think, a regular, kind of a, I don't want to say right-wing, but a pretty staunch Israeli, I'd say, this is ours.
That's it.
And if you don't like it, get out.
Simply.
We'll get along with you, but it doesn't seem that the Gazans and the Palestinians want to play ball with us.
Plus, there are many Israelis and many supporters who say, we were here first.
We have biblical, not only that, we have the, forget the Balfour Agreement, we have the UN.
It's decreed, it's over, it's moot.
We're here.
That's it.
Shut up.
Shut up.
And if you don't like it, you should have thought about this before October 7th.
And don't complain to us.
Complain to Hamas.
They're the ones.
They're the ones who...
Okay?
You got that?
Alright.
Now, Palestinians' point of view.
This is real easy.
Excuse me, we were here first.
We're indigenous people.
What's this UN business?
Not only that, are you aware?
Do you have any idea of the claims that have been made?
The absolute claims of genocide, claims now, genocide, ethnic cleansing, and apartheid made on the part of Palestinians.
They will tell you they've been hit with snipers.
This has been going on for years!
That Americans don't know anything about this!
You don't know what you're talking about!
And the knock-butt to them is real.
The catastrophe.
And what they're saying is they want to just move us out.
This is our home.
And they basically said, all right, everybody out of Gaza.
Why?
To get Hamas.
Now, if you don't like the reality of this, if you don't like the reality, if you don't like the way that both sides are portraying this, if you are unable to, it's not really yours to take aside because it's not your fight.
But this is what's going on.
And in America, we know nothing about this.
In the rest of the world, that's all they talk about.
We know nothing about it.
Nothing!
Nothing!
And we have people, we have one particular side, we have, let's say, the conservatives, and the, well, let me explain this, the conservatives, Fox News, who are saying, Israel, whatever you do, We'll sign on.
Just whatever you want to do.
It's okay.
That's the way it is.
You defend yourself.
That's it.
You got my signature.
You got my John Henry.
Go ahead.
Do it.
It's your thing.
We stand with you.
Whatever you want to do.
You want missiles?
We'll give you missiles.
You want money?
Whatever it is.
It's yours.
You're right.
That's it.
Only democracy in the Middle East.
You're our friends.
You're our allies.
Screw them.
Screw anybody.
Ever since 1972 and Munich.
That's it.
Alright?
You got the Democrats.
Weird.
They're not...
They've never been on this...
They're anti-Palestinian?
To show you the absolute terror they feel about daring to veer from the official record, look at...
Look at AOC.
And where's Ghislaine Maxwell?
Where's Rashida Tlaib?
Where is she?
Where is she?
Where's the squad?
They haven't said a word.
Where's Ilhan Omar?
What do they have?
Are they threatening her?
Now's the time for her.
You think she'd say, aha!
Rashida Tlaib, get out of here.
Don't you push it.
That Michigan undecided thing.
Where are they?
Where are they?
It's easier to find out where's Kate.
Kate Middleton.
Do you hear me?
Is there anybody listening?
Do you see what's going on?
This is unbelievable!
Where are the Democrats?
I don't understand.
I am flabbergasted.
I am gobsmacked.
I am...
It's the most fascinating story I have ever seen.
There is no story like this.
By the way, my dear friends, I'm going to give you this link.
Please watch my piece on Joy Reid.
Oh, it was a delight.
I've got Joy Reid, or her show's called Read Out.
The Read Out Show.
I call it the Read Out.
Out of her mind show.
This is the link.
Please see it.
It's a very good one.
I break down her last show.
It's so bad.
I haven't watched it.
And I give you my critique of it.
Please watch it at Lionel Nation.
Tell me what you think.
Now this is the most beautiful thing in the world.
Joe.
What Joe Biden said, I think it was, I think it was, was it Menachem Begin?
What Joe Biden said, if there wasn't an Israel, we'd have to create one.
I think it was Begin who said, who the hell is this guy?
Who in the hell is this guy?
He is one, why he is a Democrat, where you think this Democrat thing comes from?
He lauded, he provided the eulogium for Robert Byrd.
And was it Strom Thurmond?
I think it was Robert Byrd.
I mean, you've got to be kidding me.
Where is ALC?
They had to pin her down at a theater.
She wouldn't say genocide.
And we'll get to that in a moment.
Lloyd Austin said, well, I don't think there's any evidence of genocide.
However...
The senseless slaughter of men, women, and children.
Wait a minute.
What?
Now, genocide.
Terrible word.
I know many of you good people will say, I am not going to say genocide because genocide to you conveys, connotes, and inspires in your mind an idea and imagery that is so horrible.
And some people think Israel cannot commit a genocide.
That's ideologically.
Practically impossible for people who themselves have been the subject of this horror, who themselves have been the subject of human liquidation and genocide, they are not going to be involved in the very practice that basically inspired Israel in the first place.
It's ideologically, intellectually, philosophically, and practically impossible for Is real to commit genocide?
That would be like the African American, the Black Hawk is committing slavery.
It doesn't work.
And these other, that's what people say.
It's, it's, it does, because they have this word genocide.
Now, genocide, for those of you keeping track at home, to give you an idea, listen to this definition.
It's very weird.
Genocide, I think it was a term.
Penned in 1943.
It is a term of art.
It means the intentional destruction of a people in whole or in part with the intent to do so.
It's any of the five acts.
Let me just give this to you.
It's very, very interesting.
This is important.
This is what it is.
Genocide is defined as any of five acts committed with the intent, with the intent to destroy in whole or in part a national, ethnical, which is very interesting, national, ethnical, racial or religious group.
And these five acts were killing members of the group, causing them serious bodily or mental harm, imposing living conditions intended to destroy the group, preventing births, and forcibly transferring children out of the group.
Victims are targeted because of their real or perceived membership of a group, not randomly.
In whole or in part.
The killing of people in whole or in part.
A national, ethnical, racial, or religious group.
Was Vietnam genocide?
Did we...
Kill, in whole, or part, intentionally kill, a national group?
I don't know if it was ethnic, or we weren't targeting ethnic, racial, or religious, but national?
Dropping bombs?
Rolling thunder?
Did we kill members of the group?
This was one of the five acts.
Why isn't that genocide?
Could Hamas be accused of genocide?
Yes!
Think about this.
It is the killing, okay?
It is the killing, with the intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national group?
Yes!
I'd say religious.
Yes!
Either Jews or Israelis?
Yes.
By killing members of the group, in whole or part.
Everything seems to be genocide.
Think about this.
You mean a group?
What group?
You mean a country?
A group?
Is Hamas a country?
I don't even know how the hell this thing works.
When I read this, I want to say something.
I don't want to...
To, in any way, stop or interfere with people in their use of the word genocide.
But if you read it, I'm thinking, excuse me, everything seems to be genocide.
Read this.
What is war?
When we firebombed, when we took out Nagasaki, remember, who was it who said, was it Eisenhower who said, we're going to be the subject?
We're subject to war crime.
We'll be war criminals if they catch us.
Do you know how stupid this thing is?
How insane, insane it is for us to be talking about the rules of war.
This notion of war.
That's a good war.
That's not a war.
Well, that's not a whole other part.
Well, was there the intent?
Well, I don't know if there's the intent.
They're showing people, they're using the statements of IDF soldiers, leaders, and their statements are basically liquidating either all or a whole or a part of Palestinians.
Did you ever hear what we said during Vietnam?
Did you ever hear what we said about killing, did you ever hear about us getting the gooks and Charlie and, oh my God!
What was that about?
We're going to go there and we're...
I mean, we went there and we just...
I mean, this...
The idea of applying the rules of the Robert's Rules of Order and Etiquette to war?
It's absurd.
It's absurd.
It's horrible.
The only way you're going to win against them.
Person that you are fighting is to destroy them, not wound them.
This is going nowhere.
But the other question is, is this our fight?
Let me ask you a question.
Now it gets closer to home.
You want to pick a fight with Iran?
Yes or no?
You want to?
You want to pick a fight with Iran?
And if you do, you better finish it.
You better finish it.
You see, this is the thing about war.
This is the thing about people.
People, I think, they watch too many movies or something.
They're sitting there and they're saying, you're giving them all this money.
We don't have a beef with you, U.S., but don't even think about it.
We send our battle carrier groups there.
And you got the Houthis are saying, let us in.
Put me in, coach.
People don't even know who these are.
The Houthis.
Right now, as we speak, I promise you, I promise you, there are battle contingencies, plans to scuttle a ship.
Right there at the gate of tears or whatever it is to the Red Sea.
They're going to go to the Suez Canal.
I mean, that's the Houthis.
That's theirs.
They own that.
And if Iran wants to say, okay, we'll just shut down the Straits of Four Moves.
We'll do it.
Americans are going crazy.
Buying gas.
I am telling you.
I am telling you, do you want to do this?
Heather West, thank you.
Heather, thank you.
Your kindness is so appreciated.
I want you just to understand the truth.
Do you want this?
Do you want this?
You see, we have this idea that these people are a bunch of weirdos.
I know when you see like an Iranian general, you don't take them serious.
You know Soleimani?
They love that guy.
He didn't look like a general.
He had a beard.
They don't look serious.
They march funny.
I mean, we know they don't have SEAL Team 6. Oh, yeah?
Really?
And Hezbollah?
Oh.
You don't want this.
One of the things that you don't want in war, whether it's a fight or a skirmish, first of all, You don't want bad weather.
You don't want a territory you're unfamiliar with.
You don't want to be in a terrain that's weird.
You don't want to be in the mountains.
You don't want to be in the jungle.
You've got to know this area.
That's why Afghanistan was so stupid with these canyons, Helmand Province and Kandahar.
The sitting ducks.
But what you really don't want...
You don't want an enemy that fights because of their incredible, immense, huge and colossal passion and love for their country.
You don't want that.
Not a love for their country.
A love for everything.
And people who have had it.
I love when people say this.
One of the craziest things is, why do these people, why did they, why did they, what was October the 7th about?
Why would Hamas want to do that?
This is what I'm saying.
Okay, I'm going to leave now, because I'm talking to a moron.
You don't understand this?
And to understand it, to be empathic does not mean you agree with it.
Remember during the riots, the Watts riots, the riots in Newark, and the Rodney King.
Do you know why they do that?
Not do they have a good reason, not the justification, but do you know why they do that?
Do you know why?
Do you know why people protest?
Do you know why people march?
Do you know why people?
Do you know why?
Martin Luther King and Ralph Abernathy and a whole bunch of people and John Lewis got their heads cracked open and just walked in unarmed against Bull Connor and the Edmund Pettus Bridge.
Do you know why they did that?
Do you know why they're pissed off?
Do you know why they're so angry?
Do you know why they don't recognize how good they've got it?
Do you know what the Stonewall riots were?
Do you know why they rioted?
What are these people?
Whatever, man!
Come on!
If you don't understand this, if you honestly say, why would the October 7th, why would they do that?
What's their beef?
It means you don't know anything.
You're not listening to what they've been saying.
You've been so, not you, but you've been so hidden, sheltered, cosseted, closeted, comforted.
You've been just pulled aside.
You don't know anything.
Most people think, oh, goddammit, are these Palestinians?
What do they want now?
What the hell do these people want now?
Well, they just shut up.
They still think it's Arafat or something.
What do these, what's their beef?
You know, why doesn't Jordan take them?
How about Egypt?
If you don't like it, leave.
Does that sound familiar to you?
Stand by for a second, my friend.
Stand by for a second.

You know, my friends, I love reality.
I love reality.
And let me give you something.
I was listening tonight to the story of American Sign Language.
And sign language in general.
And there was a debate as to when sign language came about.
And if you were deaf, born deaf, you had little things you would say, like you were born into a hearing family.
They would maybe...
Point a few things to you, and they would, you know, this would, you know, this.
It was funny, American Sign Language, you know, this is drink, but this is booze, or something like that.
I thought that's interesting.
So if you're born deaf in a family, in a country, in a world, you never talk to anybody.
You never talk to anyone.
You could talk about food and hungry and maybe you never have anybody to talk to.
You don't discuss your ideas, your politics, your thoughts, your dreams, your faith, your loves, your hates, nothing.
You don't have anyone to talk to.
And that's the way you were before Lionel Nation.
And that's the way we were before the internets.
Think about what we're doing right now.
20 years ago on a Saturday night, you would have had to maybe talk to your dad or talk to a neighbor or maybe write a letter to the editor or talk to a friend.
That was it.
But the idea of a communal group, we learned the sign language of truth.
And we're sharing this.
And we take it for granted.
We're just used to it now.
But before this, it was like being deaf and not knowing how to communicate.
We didn't know where like-minded people were.
We didn't know this.
So think about this.
Respect the nature and the beauty of what we're doing right now.
And the fact that I enjoy this more than you do, but that we have this time to speak.
And you can speak either to me, or you can speak to each other, or people later on who are listening live and whatever.
So God bless you for that.
Second, and I find this most interesting.
There's a Joe, wait a minute, John McGuire, hold it, hang on, Wobill, John McGuire, couldn't get higher, says, my sister was born deaf, we never learned sign language, wasn't done back then, but she could lip read and speak, well, pretty much normal.
Excellent.
Excellent.
Did she have the ability, John, to express herself?
As fluently and as fluidly as one would think.
Did she have that ability?
Probably not.
I'm sure she could communicate.
I'm sure she knew what was going on.
Communicate.
But to enjoy language.
That's languid.
To enjoy the complexity of thoughts.
To be able to enjoy...
I mean, I'm sure she did a wonderful job, but without the ability to learn something that other people know, it's, I met a couple on the subway one time, and I think it was, I think one of the couple, husband and wife was deaf, and the other one wasn't, but they were talking.
They were asking me how to get someplace.
And I said, I must ask you, what is it like being married or whatever?
And I forget who said it, but one of the things which when they were arguing, someone just turned off the light.
And that means, because they both sign, signing is over.
I don't want to Quote, hear you anymore.
I'm turning off the light.
If I can't see what you're saying, I can't understand.
I thought that was so interesting how they fought.
There was a debate, not a debate, but a discussion on Joe Rogan as to which animal would win in a fight.
One of the most interesting things I thought of you was Lex Friedman.
Lex Friedman was with this fellow.
He was fantastic.
Wait a minute.
Johnny's back.
John McGuire said, actually, she got language quite well.
You could tell by what she wrote.
What was funny, though, is when people learned she was deaf and spoke louder.
Oh, yes, that's...
I'm sorry, that's not funny, but you're right about that.
Safety, what happens, John, when you meet people who don't speak English?
Or they speak with a language and people speak louder as though somebody with a different language.
Thank you, John, for that.
There was a debate as to which was the which animal could win.
A tiger?
Would a bear?
Or a gorilla?
Or a lion?
And I forget the name of this fellow.
He's a martial arts instructor.
Very, very good.
I forget his name.
It's very interesting.
And Lex Friedman, it's a great show.
It's a great show.
And he said, well, you know, the ape is intelligent.
And he said, uh-huh.
And he was citing Joe Rogan.
Well, you know, an ape is able to use tools and can involve itself in a The veritable litany of behaviors and like, uh-huh.
And a bear, I mean, excuse me, they're very strong.
He said, okay, very strong.
And therefore, I mean, this is the strength.
And Lex Friedman applied his own speciesist focus and bias.
And he completely got it wrong.
He said, well, let me tell you something about the gorilla.
And there's a reason why I'm telling you this.
You'll see at the end.
I hope.
He says, a gorilla is very, very strong, but they're easily, they don't get into fights.
They can be distracted by, they'll run off by other animals.
They don't engage in fights.
They don't do it.
They don't fight to kill.
Interestingly enough, when a chimpanzee, when a chimpanzee will, they are so brutal.
They will rip your, pull your fingers off your face.
And for men, they will rip your testicles off.
I'm sure you've known a few women like that, right guys?
Anyway.
And the idea is that they don't want you to reproduce.
I mean, it's just fascinating.
But gorillas, no.
They're not fighters.
Many things don't fight them.
Bears are very interesting.
Bears are very strong to an extent.
They have incredible endurance.
I didn't know this.
They can run for a long time.
And they will chase you down.
But again, their whole thing is that they don't really advance.
They don't attack.
But the lion, oh, the lion is so good.
It's got incredible sight, great night vision.
It attacks by stealth.
Wonderful.
It doesn't come out and surround you.
It takes on anything.
Water buffaloes.
Packs of hyenas.
Doesn't matter.
It knows that if it hobbles back to the pride, the other ones will take care of it.
So it goes out there to do what's true.
Gorillas, I mean, there's a certain degree of kinship, but it's a different story.
Bears don't.
Bears are solitary.
They also can strangle and crush.
I mean, their whole thing is not just...
They are the best killers because they are hunters and they go after you.
And the bears are kind of, you know...
They eat their thing, but they're not into packs.
And they don't sit there with the Serengeti waiting for the gazelle.
They're very smart.
Why am I saying this?
What am I saying this for?
And you're asking, what the hell is this guy talking about?
When you understand the purpose of that exercise, you've got to ask the right questions.
Lex Friedman was applying his own bias as a human.
Oh, they're smarter.
They make tools.
Excuse me, during a fight, the gorilla's not going to say, okay, let me take this stick.
Just a minute.
Hang on, let me get this bamboo.
Put this together.
Okay, here we go.
It's a nice little spear.
Let me, just a minute.
Let me sharpen the end.
Yeah, that's good.
Making tools in a fight?
What are you talking about?
He was applying his human predisposition to seeing things.
It's like we see through anthropomorphic.
Sometimes misconceptions.
Our own biases.
Our own thoughts.
Our own whatever it is.
And it's very funny.
So when you look at what's happening.
First rule.
Number one.
What's their beef?
Tell me what Israel believes.
Tell me what the Palestinians believe.
Number two.
What are they really fighting for?
Is it for land?
Is it for honor?
Is it for religion?
Is it for family?
Is it for pride?
Is it for genetics?
What is it?
Next, who's behind who?
Nobody fights a war anymore.
The question is not who's behind you.
Who is behind Israel?
We are.
Canada.
I think some European countries.
What about the rest of the world?
Uh-uh.
Nope.
Anti-Semitism?
No.
I'm sure it is in part.
And what does anti-Semitism mean?
What does that mean?
If I advised Israel, I would say I want you to learn something from American black social media types.
Everything's racist.
Everything.
No matter what it is, it's racist.
Please watch this piece.
Joy, I don't want to say I destroyed, but I'm going to follow up on this Joy Reid.
I love those wigs.
What is that?
What is that?
Do you think that looks good?
I'm just curious.
I just...
If I told Israel, do me a favor.
Always, always, always just make people say, oh God.
But you can also go for anti-Zionist, anti-Semitic, and tie anti-Semitic into it.
Because you can say that anybody who dares to oppose Israel is indeed opposing.
So just do it.
And in many respects, it's true.
Anti-Semitism is a term which exists.
There are people who have an absolute, fervent, diabolical, actual disdain.
Somebody said one time, I thought this was very interesting.
I believe I have his name somewhere.
I believe he was a Holocaust survivor.
He says, in the old days, anti-Semitism mean people who didn't like Jews.
Today, anti-Semitism means people Jews don't like.
Or something like that.
It's reversed.
It's ridiculous.
The word is metal fatigue.
There are many people who say, I couldn't tell you the first, because to me, when I think of anti-Semitism, I think it is about Judaism.
I think it's about, just like, you're anti-Catholics.
I think if you're an Arab living in Tel Aviv, I don't think that's...
To me, I mean, maybe they have a wrong...
I don't think Americans think of Israel as being connected with anti-Semitism.
I think there are people who believe in Judaism.
Judaism, either the religion or the culture.
There are people that I know who are Jews here in New York.
I have so many friends who are Jewish.
So many, as you can imagine.
And some are atheists.
Some never, ever, nothing.
Not even the High Holy Days, no nothing.
But it's a cultural thing.
So I believe, I absolutely believe, there are people who despise Jews.
Absolutely.
They exist.
There are people out there who despise black people.
There are people who despise Asians.
And a lot of these folks, you wouldn't believe the anti-Semitism.
Oh my God.
In New York, Crown Heights, the, dare I say, the animus between blacks and Jews in New York.
Oh, my God, in Brooklyn.
Oh, my God.
Remember, Crown Heights riots.
Oh, Powder Keg.
Freddie's Fashion Mart with whatever, with Al Sharpton.
I know this.
Absolutely.
Of course this exists.
Of course it does.
I don't think we're talking about that here.
I don't think we're talking about that.
I don't think we're talking about that.
Anti-Semitism, by the way, is a very interesting anti-Semitism.
If you really want to go back to it, go read the words of Martin Luther.
Oh my God!
And it goes back, as you know, to the whole notion of who was responsible for the crucifixion of Christ.
It goes back!
And this is the...
There is a...
Absolute, this is the most important thing in the world, for you to understand this, and how Pope Pius, no, Pope John XXIII, Roncalli, removed the part of the Easter procedure, or the rite, which talked about the perfidy of the Jews.
Madame Stamp says, Thank you, Lionel.
I love listening to you.
Brings me back to my Jersey childhood.
Listening to Cousin Bruce on WABC on my transistor radio, shades of happy.
I really enjoyed being here.
Thank you for this.
You melt my heart those days.
I don't think people understand the notion of the radio, the transistor.
And that night you could hear things from, oh my God, because of skip.
It's a wonderful thing.
Skip, how it bounces off of...
You can get radio stations beyond the horizon because there's a skip.
Amplitude modulation hits the clouds back down.
I used to love to hear this.
AM at the outer end and just maybe had that little tiny ear.
It was a first ear thing and you...
It's wonderful.
You have to turn it sometimes.
You can always hear the lightning in the background if it was AM.
At least in Florida, you could.
I remember listening to Larry King at night.
Art Bell.
Larry King.
If you understand, you have to become conversant with what people are saying.
You have to understand everybody's position and be able to explain it to each side.
There are people I know who say, okay, now switch.
Now defend, take the Palestinian side.
Oh, I can't do that.
No, no.
I'm not saying you agree with it.
Just explain it.
No, I can't agree.
You don't understand it?
Well, I understand it, but I'm not going to say it.
Why don't you say it?
Tell me what it is.
You have to be able to understand this.
There's so many levels to it.
I understand it.
It's simple.
Now, let me tell you one thing.
Always think like the enemy.
Just like I told you, this Lex Friedman thing, you have to understand how, if you're going to go in there, You do not want...
Somebody said, you want to be in a cage with either a lion or a bear.
And the answer was, I forget the name of this fellow, he said, you want to go in there with a lion, because a lion will kill you faster.
And an adult ape will kill a thousand men.
You cannot beat an ape.
You can't.
You can not.
By virtue of the savagery of these things, the way they cannibalize, there was an ape, a woman, a woman, a female who gave birth, and normally you take your baby away.
You never give birth in front of the rest.
When she did, they cannibalized it.
And when the men fight, when the men fight, they not only fight, Each other for the dominance.
They want to kill the offspring for genetic reasons.
There's a brutality that you might consider to be brutality, but to me it's just nature.
It's just what the nature, what the natural world does.
But here's what I would do.
First, I'm Mr. Intel.
What do I mean by that?
I always want to create the illusion of something that's not true.
Number one, I'm saying, do me a favor, yeah.
I want you to double.
If I represented Israel, I want you to put more of these death to America protests.
Death to America.
What do you mean?
Death to America.
Why do you want that?
So that Americans will say, these Palestinian bastards.
What?
Death to us.
You know what?
Screw you.
Go, Israel.
Finish the job.
Next.
Remember when they had, after October the 7th, they had pictures of the Of the hostages, and they put them on light poles.
I don't know if they did where you are, but here in New York, they had them on light poles, and people would come and tear them down.
I would, if I were Israel, I would have people deliberately tear it down, put it on social media, and of course, people will jump into it.
Again, showing the absolute insanity of these palaces, because I know what's coming up.
I know what's coming up.
I always want to change thoughts.
I want to be like Capra.
I'm into propaganda.
That's what I want to do.
Then you get to AOC.
You get to the squad and you tell them, shut up.
And by the way, once and for all, would you stop...
Please stop saying...
Stop saying there's an Israeli lobby.
There's an Israeli lobby.
Hello?
Yeah?
There's a gun lobby, maybe not that powerful.
There's a climate lobby.
There's a trans lobby.
There's a black lobby.
There's all kinds of...
Name it!
What are you talking about?
What are you talking about?
There's an anti-Russian lobby.
Why do people run from that?
Oh, there you go with your crazy Jewish lobby.
There's a Jewish lobby!
Yeah!
Smart!
They did this before.
You know who's got the biggest lobby of them all?
Big Tech.
Where do you think that Let's Get Rid of TikTok came from?
Zuckerberg.
So do me a favor.
Don't insult my intelligence by suggesting that I'm anti-Semitic because I point out the obvious.
Did you also notice something too?
Jose Andres from the World Central Kitchen.
Nobody gave a shit about the Palestinians until two things happened.
First, the Flower Massacre, and the second was three cars in a convoy with big things on top pinpointed.
And Andrei said, alright, that's enough.
He was 100%.
He is State Department.
He is so mobbed up, so to speak, in shadow government.
He is so mobbed up, it's not even funny.
He is a proxy.
He's an agent.
But when they got him, he said, hey, what's this all about?
And they said, watch it, Jose.
Watch it.
Don't forget where your bread is buttered.
You're one of us.
Well, you know what?
Screw you.
And then he's kind of backing off.
He's like, wow.
I don't think Jose understands how this thing works.
I don't think he understands how it works.
Now, somebody said, why do you think...
Why do you think, and this is an interesting question, why do you think Israel made such a mistake by hitting those three drones?
You know what other people say?
And if you think about this, you might say, oh, that's too dastardly.
But it's not out of the, it makes sense, it's logical.
They want to make sure, the next people who have the bright idea of bringing food there, this is what happens to you.
So you know what?
We got rid of Unruh, and we're going to get rid of this.
We want you out!
Get out!
Out!
Leave!
Stop this two-stage solution business.
I'm telling you the truth.
And I probably would think the same thing if I'm Israeli.
I don't want to share.
I probably had it with these goddamn people.
And vice versa.
You're the goddamn people.
This is the way it works.
Understand the thought.
Antediluvian Doomer said, Lionel said, Jewish Americans have political clout.
Get him.
Antediluvian.
By the way, do you know what antediluvian means?
Antediluvian?
Before the flood.
Meaning old and ancient.
Did you ever hear about the gay mafia?
Broadway?
In the theater?
Did you ever hear about that?
You hear about that?
Oh, oh, oh, man.
Talk about that forever.
Oh, are you kidding?
The higher echelons.
It's not only a lobby, but just a group.
Oh, come on.
How about the ones in the folks in Hollywood?
If you don't understand how things work, forget it.
In New York, they tried the anti-Italian defamation thing.
That thing never took off.
Mario Cuomo said, I'm so sick I hate the movie The Godfather.
Because it depicts Italian-Americans like, would you shut up?
Italian-Americans love The Godfather.
They love this mafia thing.
They love it.
Don't tell me that.
Everybody here wants to, everybody's mobbed up.
Listen to all the, and I thought they hit kind of critical mass, but there's a lot of folks, there's a lot of folks, by the way, the boys downtown don't like necessarily all of these people mentioning names from the past and who whacked whom and that sort of thing.
Please, please stop.
Please stop pretending that I don't know What I'm talking about.
There are certain realities and certain things that...
I one time asked somebody the question.
Here's a question.
Do you believe, not in all circumstances, but do you believe...
That within the African American communities, there are pockets or groups or strata, not all, but significant numbers, who discriminate against other blacks based upon either skin color or, dare I say, what used to be called negroid features.
Do you think that exists?
Do you think?
Because there was a time when everyone was, this is in the 60s, the glory days, Afros and the Sheikis and going back to Africa and changing your name and everything else.
And then there was this kind of talk about, well, you know, lighter skinned.
Like, wait a minute, what?
You mean more white?
Have you ever heard this?
Edie says, yes, I grew up in Baltimore.
Angelica says, of course it is.
Of course it is.
Do you know that in Iran, Right around, right after, well, before, no, actually, right around Operation Ajax, where we got rid of Mossadegh, and there was this proliferation of Western, the number of Iranian women.
You always saw women with these bandages.
The nose jobs were just, I mean, it was the hottest ticket in town.
And some people had bandages on who couldn't afford the nose job.
Now, if you don't think there are people within different groups who have their own preferences, please.
Have you ever heard of Lace Curtain or Shanty Irish?
Even then you talk about this.
Look, it's a reality.
Learn it.
Learn how it works.
Don't subscribe to it necessarily, but understand it.
But here's what I would do.
If I was, by the way, terrorist, that means the other guy.
They don't call themselves terrorists.
If I work for these people, I would do one of two things.
First, I want you always to not be sure what the truth is.
I want you to always, I want to control the way you think.
On October the 7th, How did the greatest intelligence organization on the face of this earth, as far as we've been told, not know that they've been practicing for two years?
Didn't have drones, didn't see this, didn't found gates that were unattended?
I mean, wait a minute, what?
They knew about the drones before they fired up the drones.
They said, they're coming.
Wait a minute.
How the hell did you know this?
Because we're Israel.
Everybody knew this.
Here come the drones.
And Israel's thinking, you're going to hit us with drones?
Now we've got to get rid of you because now we know you're coming.
Drones are only kind of limited, but that's okay.
You've got to ask questions like this.
Do you remember during 9-11 when they asked Condi Rice, did you think, she said, oh, who was it?
Condi Rice said, well, we had no...
No indication or any reason to believe that people would commandeer planes and fly them into buildings, which is the story, right?
Until Richard Clark or somebody else said, what about the PDB that said, Bin Laden planning to commandeer planes?
I said, you don't know what to think?
So the first thing I would do is if I represent a group, I'm saying, we've got to make sure we have sleeper cells.
Sleeper cells, lone wolf.
We've got sleeper cells everywhere.
Do me a favor.
Teach the United States a lesson.
Wait a minute.
What?
If Hezbollah or Iran pulls something here to teach us a lesson to get back, you're obviously, all you're going to do is give them the resolve pro-Israel against it.
So if I represent Israel, I'm saying, do it anyway.
Blame Hamas.
You know where Hamas was.
They were created.
You know the story about this.
This is, look.
I don't have time to sometimes remind people that there are some very clever people who employ very interesting things and very interesting programs.
And remember the words of Marshall McLuhan who said that little lies are hard to keep secret, but big lies are easy because of your incredulity.
Do you think there's any chance that we, that Pearl Harbor was not contrived, but LIHOP, let it happen on purpose?
Any evidence?
Of course there is.
Of course there is.
FDR, move the carriers out.
Why is that?
Just move the carriers out.
Thank you.
Leave the rest there.
Get rid of the carriers.
Okay.
Alrighty.
Make sure the embargo against Japan is, you know, tighten it up, push them turtiest goudins, and don't ever rule out Winston Churchill and his role in that.
It's so interesting.
But when you do this, you have to disabuse yourself of this nicey-nicey world of, well, that would be terrible.
You mean they knew this?
They knew it.
Are you kidding me?
There are people who sit back, and to them it's a chessboard.
Okay, you move this, you move here, and you move here.
Do you know that right now, as we speak, right now, there are conditions waiting for the next George Floyd to happen?
Waiting.
Waiting.
They've got their teams ready to go.
Cold blue.
The next time there is a...
And it's going to happen.
I'm sad to say it's going to happen.
There's going to be a police shooting.
There's a review committee.
Nah, that's not a good one.
But the next time there's anything even remotely like George Floyd, right before the election, to remind everybody how racist Trump is, they will pick up the phone and give the signal, whatever.
The pastrami at the Carnegie is lean.
Click.
Gotcha.
Code blue, guys.
Pick up the phone.
Call Ben Crump.
We got another one.
Get Antifa on the phone.
We got it ready.
Two weeks tops.
Get BLM.
Now Patrice Cullors.
We got to get a new one.
Ready to go.
We all set.
They got the slogans.
They got the social media.
They got everything.
They're ready to go.
Ready to go.
They know exactly and if it can be time.
Not that they're going to do this on purpose, but the moment it happens, they're ready to go.
You didn't know that?
Of course you knew that.
You're not stupid.
Of course you knew that.
Let me ask you a question.
How different would the world be today without 9-11?
What would the world look like had there not been 9-11?
Where would we be?
What would the music industry be without the Beatles?
It's a good question.
Assuming there would be no...
I ask this question.
Because I was here in New York and I can ask a question.
Assume after these planes flew in, what if those buildings did not fall?
What if somehow through miraculous, I don't know what, they just they're just a plane in there.
Would we be in Iraq?
What would happen?
Will we have the Patriot Act?
Will we have this?
I'm just asking.
The answer is no.
Of course not.
After the first World Trade Center bombing in, what, 93 or whatever it was?
Nothing really happened.
You've got to ask yourself, what is it that, what is it that certain things, Emmett Till changed things.
The social, civil rights workers in Philadelphia, Mississippi.
Changed everything.
What would happen had there not been that little girl running down the streets in Vietnam with her skin pouring off because of the napalm?
Where would we be if there wasn't that image?
Where?
What would happen?
There are things that you always have to keep in mind.
You must understand human behavior.
You must understand the rules of war and the rules of engagement and engorgement.
And you have to ask yourself, what is it that makes people fight?
Just like when you talk about fighting a bear versus a lion, who has...
Let me also tell you something.
One of the biggest jokes, one of the biggest jokes, and I say this With all due respect, is the American military.
Let me explain.
They are the finest people, the best fighting.
You remember when somebody said, I don't know who's going to I don't know who's going to start the next war, but the next war will be fighting with sticks after an atom bomb or whatever, a nuclear bomb.
I would love to sit down and say to the great SEAL Team 6 folks, my friends, I thank you for your service, and we're going to keep you here.
But the guys that scare me is somebody who can bring down a grid pattern immediately.
Somebody who, by virtue of, can just wipe out all wealth.
Just wipe out wealth.
What if tomorrow, every bank, every account, there is no money.
You have no money.
You have numbers in your account.
And if I could go and say, watch this.
I can put that number, and assuming no audit caught it.
Audit caught it.
You've got a million dollars in your bank account.
That's it, because that's how money's transferred.
There is no money.
So if tomorrow, everybody at JPMorgan Chase, all the accounts, Citibank, wiped out, gone.
What would happen?
You're going to put them together?
Is there a backup?
Maybe you do.
I'll get that one too.
There is no money.
You go to ATM, there's no money.
There's no nothing.
Where is it?
I don't know.
But I had it.
You had what?
I had my money.
No.
You had numbers.
You don't know...
Who is this fellow?
I've got a friend of mine.
He's a wonderful...
Let me see.
Who is the...
Oh, Alan Watts.
Alan Watts.
Remember Alan Watts?
And I've got a...
Alan Watts said something that my friend...
Oh, let's give him her name.
I don't know.
Call him Vinny.
And Vinny, I think, was quoting Alan Watts, who said...
What if everything was measured in terms of its length?
And this one was so many inches and this is so many inches.
And then one day we just run out of inches, this artificial means of calibrating and measuring something by virtue of a system that really means nothing.
Where I create the illusion that I'm actually, that something is there and you believe it and then I say, no, I...
We've run out of ventures.
It's done.
What do you mean?
This artificial construct that I just created, yeah, I just uncreated it.
So tomorrow there is no money.
There is no money.
And one of my favorite jokes of all time, if you think That nothing can happen to Bitcoin or cryptocurrency in general.
If you think that, oh no, no, this is different because see, it's decentralized and I've got a number and I can deal and I'm dealing with you and nothing can...
This is called almost Bancor.
Cryptocurrency, this is...
Keynesian Bancorp.
You know, this notion of this cryptocurrency stuff.
If you think for a moment, no.
No.
I mean, it's nice and it's wonderful, but the real war is not going to be fought with weapons.
My war is with information and data.
You can call it misinformation.
My thing is the truth.
And what I do is I will never lie to you for the enemy, but I will reinterpret the truth.
I would love to be a coordinator of false flags and manipulation of reality.
I'd like to be the psychologist-in-chief, like a Bernays.
That's what I want to do for my country.
And the first person I would go after would be my own government.
I'd be a virus.
I would want to destroy the power structure and put in actual, real, I know this is pipe dreams, but real, honest to God, patriots to come in to serve in representative capacities.
You serve one term.
We have term limits.
That's it.
You can't lobby for whatever.
You just cannot do this.
I will violate, in many respects, concepts of the First Amendment because government is going to be the most unattractive thing you've ever seen.
And the only thing you will get out of it is the ability to say, I serve my country.
That's it.
I would be the worst thing anybody's ever seen.
And the first thing I would do is, I absolutely would, it would be the day, if I ran this place, it would be the day that when people find out about Santa Claus, I don't want to use terms like bust your cherry, but the day of delusion is over.
Ladies and gentlemen, here's what happened to Kennedy.
Here's about UFOs.
People are going to run into the street.
They're going to say, thank you.
You're welcome.
Thought you should know.
It's your government.
It's your government.
What's the issue?
What's the thing you want to know?
What's the main issue you want to know?
Let's say I'm your...
I don't want to say I'm God, but I say...
My question would be, tell me who the actual shooters were for Kennedy.
I want to know.
Was it Lucy and Sartre?
Was it Badge Man?
Was he out of Marseille?
Is that him?
Because they got him in 72. Who were the actual shooters?
Tell me the shooters where they were.
I got to know that.
That's all.
That's it.
There were eight shooters.
There were eight?
I mean, who knows?
Thank you.
That's what I want to know.
That's my thing.
And let me also tell you right now.
What may save the world, believe it or not, is artificial intelligence when we band together to fight it back.
When it takes over, I'd love to say, let's teach these, what if it's benevolent?
AGI in particular.
Let's do something to make them work together to fight us.
Okay, good.
So all of a sudden we say, that's enough of this.
I need your help.
All hands on deck.
Yeah, stop this Gaza shit and Rafa.
We got a big problem here.
We'll get to that later.
Of course, we'll never get back to it again.
Ronald Reagan talked about aliens.
Not aliens.
Aliens.
And the aliens, he imagined, would bring us together.
I am telling you, I'm going to leave it at that because I know you think I'm nuts.
But I see...
Everything completely different.
And I see war as being not what you think, and being the real patriot is going to be the destruction of organized government, professional government people.
Jim Jordan is a professional government person.
I don't trust him because he never does anything.
So my friends, let me say to you, to Antediluvian Doomer, thank you, dear friend.
Madam Stamp, thank you.
John McGuire, couldn't get higher.
I hope your sister is with us.
Please send her my best if she is.
And even if she isn't.
And Heather West, thank you.
Heather West, that sounds like a great...
That sounds like somebody from Batman.
Heather West as Catgirl.
Or whatever you want to...
Whatever that one is.
Let me see here.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, that's it.
Now, my friends, one more thing, please.
Check out this video.
I'm sorry.
I laugh sometimes with Joy Reid, who's just so bad, she's actually funny.
I mean, just...
And remember how Joy Reid said these anti-gay comments and then later on says, I don't believe I said that.
You said this.
I'm going to do a video on this.
They nailed her and she lied.
Well, I just don't remember saying it.
That's not the way I think.
Okay, fine.
I wish she'd said, yeah, I said it.
Because if she'd said, yeah, because I think gay people are unnatural.
I don't want to be arrested or anything, but that's the way I think.
I'm sorry.
I think it's unnatural.
So what?
I think people would be so happy they would applaud.
Up to and including gay people.
I know it sounds weird.
Oh, and in this...
I'll forget.
Enough.
That's enough.
An hour and 50 minutes.
You've got stuff to do.
I've taken too much of your time.
Thank you very much.
Thank you.
Thank you so much.
Have a wonderful, wonderful, wonderful day.
Adam and Flat and Wes and Jimmy and Jared and everybody.
God bless you.
Whatever the hell that means.
We'll see you tomorrow at...
8 a.m.
And until then, dear friends, remember these wonderful words, this final mention, my valedictory, my sayonara, my adios.
The monkey's dead.
The show's over.
Suya.
