	I'd buy a bar a month.
	Adam Curry, John C. Devorak.
	It's Thursday, October 12th, 2023.
	This is your award-winning GiveOnAgentMedia assassination episode 1598.
	This is No Agenda.
	Penetrating the fog of war and broadcasting live from the heart of the Texas Hill Country here in FEMA Region number 60.
	6.
	In the morning, everybody.
	I'm Adam Curry.
	And from Northern Silicon Valley, where today's theme is babies.
	I'm John C. Dvorak.
	It's Crackpot and Buzzkill!
	In the morning!
	My goodness.
	We're just going back in time.
	That's a re-run.
	It's a total re-run.
	I got the clips.
	I might as well run them.
	They're all pretty short.
	Let's just go right for it.
	Well, before you do that, I have a three clip set disparate clips that I'd like to run first.
	No, dog.
	No, Phoebe says, Daddy's clips!
	Daddy's clips!
	Phoebe.
	Alright.
	Dog's got a great bark.
	I should run it through the, next time she does that, I'll run it through the sound effects.
	Well, you should be recording it.
	There's nothing a dog finds more annoying than playing the dog barks back to them.
	Oh yeah, I'm sure this won't drive the dog crazy.
	Alright, well, you, I mean, this is what we call... This is just, the reason is because this is involving Chris Cuomo.
	This is what we call an audible.
	Yeah, here we go.
	This starts with this clip, which is a Hannity show.
	He brings some Trump stew, John, and it begins with this.
	Joining us now, former National Security Advisor Robert O'Brien is with us.
	When Bibi Netanyahu says that they will strike with a force that will be remembered for generations, I've known Prime Minister Netanyahu now for almost three decades.
	I'm pretty much a hundred percent certain he means what he says.
	When he says the Middle East will be reconfigured as a result of this, you know, evil attack on their homeland, I believe he means it.
	What are your thoughts?
	Well, I know B.B.
	Well also, Sean, and I think he means what he says.
	Look, he's got no choice.
	I mean, anyone who wants to know whether evil exists in the world just needs to look at the top of your monologue and hear about the babies being killed.
	I mean, what kind of person goes house to house and beheads babies?
	These aren't civilians who were killed collaterally in a military attack.
	These were civilians who were wantonly slaughtered.
	This isn't war.
	This is barbarism.
	I think that's the new thing to be able to say now if you're on television.
	It's like, I know B.B.
	well.
	I know B.B.
	well.
	I know B.B.
	I know B.B.
	I met B.B.
	You met B.B.?
	Yeah, B.B.
	Newharth, the actress.
	Okay.
	All right, next up in your disparate clips.
	Now we go to Cuomo calling out Hamas.
	Nobody wants to see pictures of mutilated children.
	I promise you that.
	Well, yeah, we actually would like to see it, just to know that it's real.
	Yeah, actually, I would like to see it too.
	Yeah, because it's only the news guide.
	The real pictures, of course, not photoshopped ones, but we haven't seen AI.
	However, The reality should not be shied away because it's what's driving the understanding of this situation.
	People in America especially have a misguided connection between the plight of Palestinians, which is real, the suffering there, which is real and going on right now.
	People are dying in Gaza because of Israel's necessary retaliation.
	I'm sure kids were involved there too.
	Innocents were involved there too.
	You should be seeing the pictures to drive the intensity of the purpose here.
	And we have to remember that our urgency is on those who were captured, not hostages, not hostages.
	Hostages are people who are taken for security and they are negotiated.
	These people were captured, they're being mutilated, they're being brutalized in ways that very few people have seen in this region in a long, long time.
	And remember, it is on Hamas To counteract what I just said.
	It is on Hamas to come forward and say, no, we're holding them humanely because we want protection against what Israel is doing, because we want to negotiate, because we want to be taken seriously.
	This is on Hamas.
	Hamas loves to talk.
	They're putting out videos all over the internet of complete barbarism and savagery.
	They have said not one word about treating these people As human beings.
	And they have given us all the evidence and understanding that they are treating them worse than dogs.
	Okay.
	Yes.
	Let's spin people up.
	This is good.
	Well, you know, it took me all of five minutes to find out that Hamas had said plenty.
	I guess he didn't have the time to do it because he's flying over there, wants to hang out.
	Is he in the region?
	Cuomo's in the region?
	Yes, he went there because it's a... In the region, John.
	It's called in the region.
	Yeah, he's in the region.
	He is in Israel, but it's northern Israel, it seems to me.
	In the region, yeah.
	It's a region.
	It's a region.
	So here is Hamas-Palestinian denials.
	Kazan Brigades has broadcast a video that shows the release of three captives.
	The video shows an Israeli woman and two children near the Holot Kibbutz near Gaza.
	They were said to have been released shortly after being captured by Hamas on Saturday.
	Hamas sources say the video refutes what they called false Israeli allegations that Hamas fighters killed women and children.
	Well, the video follows an earlier statement by the group that said, some Western media outlets continue to spread Zionist slander and lies about our Palestinian people and their resistance, which falsely and slanderously promoted allegations that members of the Palestinian resistance beheaded children and assaulted women without any evidence to support their lies and claims.
	Hamas strongly condemns the baseless allegations.
	And that's on Al Jazeera, so that's more official than it would be on X, which is probably all Cuomo's looking at, which is what everybody's looking at.
	I don't know what Cuomo's looking at.
	It took me five minutes to find that clip, and Hamas had made these statements earlier, way before he came off and yacked and yacked.
	But this is the problem you have, is that our media is just not good.
	No, you're right.
	Yes, you're right.
	And if you listen to the... I mean, I didn't clip it because I got too many clips already on this and they're cut, you know, you can... Well, let me jump into some beheaded baby clips.
	I want to mention one thing.
	To listen to Judge Jeanine and these others on The Five.
	Judge Jeanine is back to her bomb them, bomb them, bomb them again.
	Oh really?
	It's fascinating.
	I didn't clip it.
	Maybe I'll clip it for Sunday.
	But she's just off the rails.
	But is she about bombing?
	Because back in the day, that was... Al Qaeda.
	Yes.
	Bomb them, bomb them, and bomb them again!
	Now, she made the statement, and again, like I said, I got too many clips already, but I'll tell you what she said.
	She said, they're coming here.
	Oh yeah, well, okay.
	Let me, that's, you're moving too fast.
	First we gotta, now the, the beheaded baby story, Which has apparently already been debunked by the journalist who wrote about it, who said, I didn't really write about it.
	I wanted to clarify.
	I did not tweet, which is, by the way, what journalism are we performing here?
	What kind of journalism is this?
	I did not tweet 40 babies had been beheaded.
	I tweeted that foreign media had been told women and children had been decapitated, but we had not been shown bodies, which was my response to reports which had gone viral about the 40 babies.
	Also, this number 40 is interesting.
	I realized the way my tweet was written... Why?
	I don't know, 40 days, 40 nights, I don't know, it's all biblical.
	Oh, 40 days, 40 nights.
	All biblical stuff.
	Arabian Nights!
	Oh yeah, which is... There you go.
	I realized the way my tweet was written was too short to explain the full context, so I deleted it!
	All right, now, but this went quite viral.
	Of course, I mean, we've seen this.
	End of show mix, you'll even hear some historical examples.
	No, one of the end of show mixes is dynamite.
	We had the babies on bayonets.
	We had the babies in incubators that they threw on the floor.
	And this is just a new twist.
	This is Nicole Zedek.
	By the way, the babies on bayonets, I should mention this because I never mentioned it on the show before, but when you study world history, This was the same baby stories that were told during the Vikings' invasions of Northern Europe.
	It was, they were told that the Vikings came in and grabbed the babies and then threw them in the air and then caught them with their spears.
	Their horns, their horns on their anus.
	No one heard about the horns, but the spears, they speared them.
	The babies, the babies flying through the air.
	So this is not a new complaint.
	No, it's a true and tried tactic, which works incredibly well.
	So here's the same Nicole Zedick who tweeted, she slashed, Soldiers told me they believe 40 babies slash children were killed.
	The exact death toll is still unknown as the military continues to go house to house and find more Israeli casualties.
	I-24 News.
	So here's her report.
	David, it's hard to even explain exactly just the mass casualties that happened right here.
	In fact, the Israeli military says they still don't have a clear number, but I'm talking to some of the soldiers and they say what they've witnessed as they've been walking through these different houses, these different communities, The babies, their heads cut off, that's what they said.
	Gunned down, families completely gunned down in their beds.
	You can see some of these soldiers right now comforting each other.
	Many of them reserves who jumped into action, leaving their own families behind as well.
	Not knowing the sheer horror that they were about to come to.
	They say they've never experienced anything like this.
	This is nothing that anyone could have even imagined when you're walking through here.
	Baby cribs thrown to the side.
	There you go.
	So, she actually didn't say that she had seen it herself, it's what soldiers told her, but that was enough, that was enough.
	And, you know, it doesn't matter what Nicole Zedek says, because our president saw evidence, proof, he saw it with his own eyes.
	I just came to basically, I really mean it from the bottom of my heart, and I give you my word as a Biden, thank you.
	Well, there you go.
	Thank you for the intensity of your support.
	It matters.
	It matters that Americans see what's happening.
	I mean, I've been doing this a long time.
	I never really thought that I would see and have confirmed pictures of terrorists beheading children.
	Alright, so he saw it with his own eyes.
	Confirmed.
	It's confirmed, people.
	And then he goes into his tip.
	When he lies, he always goes into this.
	I never thought I'd ever Anyway, anyway, anyway, anyway.
	Now to get the actual report that you will probably, maybe, maybe the five will talk about it, but the White House jumped into immediate crisis mode because, oh no, no, no, he didn't quite mean that.
	Now we have some latest updates coming in from the U.S.
	A White House spokesperson has given an official clarification as reported by U.S.
	media that neither President Joe Biden nor the White House administration has seen any pictures or verified any reports of children beheaded by Hamas.
	Earlier, during a roundtable with leaders from the Jewish community, Biden had mentioned seeing the confirmed pictures of militants beheading children.
	The official clarified, though, that the president's remarks were quote-unquote referring to public comments from media outlets and Israeli officials.
	Oh, okay.
	All right.
	Please.
	He's an old, old man.
	He's senile.
	So don't you get it?
	And at this point, I think the international press is like, yeah, we get it.
	Okay.
	Oh, he made a mistake.
	Very, very, very, very bad.
	What kind of a mistake?
	I saw it with my own eyes.
	Confirmed.
	So, this, now, let me just, as predicted, we got some emails and I just want to reiterate That we're not, I mean, we don't really care one way or the other about this particular stuff.
	It's fun to debunk it and take a helicopter view.
	But this is not about who did what to whom.
	What we're trained to do is to look at how everybody is being spun up and programmed against each other.
	In fact, arguing against each other is part of the point.
	Distraction, which is beautiful because we don't hear about Hunter.
	Don't hear about him anymore.
	No, Hunter's out of the news.
	Look at the Gaza border, not your border.
	We got a war president now.
	That's good for elections.
	You never want to change a winning team.
	You know, we've been spun up to believe that tomorrow, October the 13th, attacks in America, attacks in America.
	It's going to happen everywhere.
	This is where Judge Jeanine gets it.
	She's probably on the same Hill Country lady text.
	Text tree that that I've been seeing but really it's all recall and even just saying 9/11 That it doesn't matter who you are even Even the crackpot and the buzzkill have oh we get you know We you get images, you know where you were at that moment 9/11 9/11 9/11 This is the Israel's 9/11 and so that means a plan what what why isn't it January 6th?
	I don't get it.
	It's worse than 9-11.
	It was funny the last time.
	Now you're just spiking the ball.
	I repeat my material once in a while.
	Now you're just spiking the ball because it was genius.
	So the plan unfolds and a reminder After 9-11, on 9-11, Osama bin Laden, Osama bin Laden, Osama bin Laden, oh yes, Osama bin Laden, Afghanistan, Afghanistan, I mean, no, Iraq, Iraq, aluminum tubes, yellow cake!
	The New York Times lied.
	The government lied.
	Everyone agrees, I think, now that we were lied to to get us into Iraq, which is not where Osama came from.
	But, of course, it was a genius liquidity event of some $20 trillion, I think, over 20 years.
	It was a lot.
	It wasn't $20 trillion, but it was a lot.
	I think if you look it up it may even be more than 20 trillion.
	Okay, I'll consult the book of knowledge while we listen to the Israeli ambassador to the UK because it's not just 9-11.
	This is our obligation, our first obligation to fight back and to make sure Hamas will never have the ability to act against Israelis.
	Ambassador Tzipi Hatovli, how are you responding to the fact that this is really creating a whole host of tensions around the world that have become sort of ethnically focused on both sides?
	It really has erupted debates and protests and anger on both sides.
	How would you like to angle the conversation to be able to foster something more productive?
	I think that this is time to fight and to defend the people of Israel and I think whoever saw the fact that a thousand Israelis were killed in cold blood cannot speak now about both sides.
	There is one side here Who's the side that wants freedom, democracy, cares about human rights, cares about people's life, which is the Israeli side.
	And there is the other side.
	This is good versus evil.
	We need to fight it.
	It's a terror organization recognized in the U.S.
	and in the U.K.
	And, you know, many people are comparing to 9-11.
	And I heard many people that are making the equivalent numbers with the proportion.
	When you think about Israel as a tiny country, just 9 million people.
	It's actually 10 times of 9-11.
	This is the time to support Israel.
	The international community should understand.
	It's 10 times 9-11, and this comparison... Per capita, they're trying to... No, but that came out right away.
	Sir Brian of London, he immediately... I mean, it was put into his head, and I'm not disputing That this isn't, you know, that this is the same vibe because, yeah, in Israel, everybody knows everybody.
	They're all related, as by their own admission.
	But the 9-11 meme, ah, that's a good one.
	We gotta play that up.
	Let's bring in James Stavridis, Admiral.
	Joining us now with more is former Supreme Allied Commander of NATO.
	Supreme Allied Commander, I'm sorry.
	Admiral James Stavridis.
	Get his honorifics right.
	It's exactly the same tone as 9-11.
	The news media flips right into it, no problem.
	Oh, yeah.
	You take hostages.
	It's exactly the same tone as 9-11.
	The news media flips right into it.
	No problem.
	And it's normal because they've been told 10 times worse than 9-11.
	Oh, okay.
	You bring them back to Gaza, and you put them in civilian areas, and you surround yourself with civilians, and then you threaten Israelis.
	If there's any bombing where civilians are injured, you start executing hostages.
	What is Netanyahu supposed to do when he hears something like that?
	Well, you start by calling all of this what it is, which is terrorism.
	These are acts of terror.
	This is akin to the 9-11 attack.
	A lot of people hear some of these numbers.
	You know, there have been hundreds of Israelis killed and there are 150 hostages.
	To put that in context, Joe, for an American, you have to do the math of population adjustment.
	If you have, for example, a thousand Israelis killed, I think it'll be well north of that ultimately, that's like 35,000 Americans killed on an equivalent 9-11 day.
	And by the way, on 9-11 there weren't hostages.
	So let's say there are a hundred hostages, that would be 9-11 in the United States with 3,500 hostages.
	So you're Right.
	Someone yesterday said it was like Nagasaki.
	I think it was Jonathan Greenblatt on another network.
	It wasn't like 9-11.
	It was almost like if you do the math.
	Yeah, do the math.
	Okay, so... You know, I want to say a couple of things.
	First of all, the 9-11 analogy is bad.
	There was four guys, they stole some planes and pretty much took out a building.
	It was a one-shot deal.
	There weren't people in the streets.
	They weren't raiding a dance party and shooting up.
	That was a massacre.
	Where the 260 kids were killed.
	It seems more like an extended version of, you know the shooter in Las Vegas where they just start picking off poor innocents that were at a dance, a country and western dance.
	The 9-11 thing just eludes me.
	No, really?
	It eludes you?
	Seriously?
	There's absolutely so little to do with 9-11.
	It's just the use of the term.
	And the whole thing bothers me.
	It's not as though A number of people weren't killed and that's bad enough.
	John.
	Why are we going through the massive trouble of equating it to this and that and making stuff up and making it worse than it already is?
	Because it's just beyond me.
	No, it's not beyond me at all.
	It's clear as day.
	By the way, Brown University says the cost of the 20-year war was $8 trillion.
	Okay.
	Eight trillion.
	No, the whole point is playbook.
	That's the whole point.
	We got to do it all over again.
	We know where it leads.
	We know it leads to Iran.
	That's obvious.
	That's always been in play.
	It'll probably go first to Hezbollah, which would be Lebanon.
	And we have to Get everyone into that mode.
	9-11, 9-11.
	We need money.
	We need money.
	Money, money, money, money.
	And we have a bad guy.
	We have an Osama Bin Laden.
	It is so unbelievably close to the original 9-11 story.
	It's crazy.
	This is one of the only known photos of Mohamed Dayef.
	It dates from 1989 when he was 24 years old.
	Years before he became Hamas's military mastermind.
	He lives in hiding in Gaza.
	His face hasn't been seen publicly in years.
	But according to Israeli reports, he's been heard speaking about the weekend attacks on Israel in this video.
	Remember when we only had cave audio from Osama bin Laden?
	Remember that?
	Oh yes, we have audio from him in the cave, giving the instructions, you know, which we had no idea what he was saying.
	Oh, we only have audio of Mohamed Dayef.
	He's been seen publicly in years, but according to Israeli reports, he's been heard.
	He's been heard.
	Speaking about the weekend attacks on Israel in this video released by Hamas.
	TF has led Hamas's military wing, the Al-Qassam Brigades, for two decades.
	As seen in this 2003 report by French TV network France Télévision, he was already in hiding.
	We the fighters of the Al-Qassam Brigades confirm there will be no negotiations with Israel or the US.
	Even before he commanded the brigade, Jayef led a wave of suicide bombings that killed dozens of Israelis.
	Then, under his leadership, Hamas switched its primary tactic to cross-border rocket attacks from Gaza.
	Now, Jayef has escalated these indiscriminate attacks into a multi-pronged assault, directly targeting Israeli civilians in their own homes.
	They were at an impasse.
	They saw that their old methods weren't working.
	And they also realized that by doing this, they'd succeed in creating terror, creating a huge psychological effect.
	Over the years, Dayef has survived multiple attempts on his life.
	Gravely wounded in previous Israeli assassination attempts from 2001 onwards.
	I'm gonna bet you he shows up in Iran.
	I'm just gonna guess that that might be a good place for this guy.
	His profile hasn't been spun up enough yet.
	dayev's family home reportedly killing several of his immediate relatives dayev's exact location is unknown uh i'm gonna bet you he shows up in iran i'm just i'm just gonna guess that that might be a good place for this this guy his profile hasn't been spun up enough yet this is france 24 but a one-eyed one-legged bandit like osama bin laden is a step above i mean I mean, this is really taking it all the way.
	You watch this guy be played up.
	It's exactly the same.
	Script as 9-11, and now we have to continue to create strife inside our own countries.
	We have to make sure that we're all yelling.
	If you're not for this group, you're horrible.
	If you're not for that group, you're horrible.
	Bring on the ADL on MSNBC.
	What a match made in heaven.
	The thing that's so challenging and vexing about this is people are saying, well, could this escalate into a wider war?
	It is a wider war.
	This is Al-Qaeda, from Al-Qaeda to ISIS to Hamas.
	This is what Islamic radicalism, jihadism looks like.
	Again, it doesn't seek a peaceful resolution of a conflict.
	This was not some inevitable outcome.
	This was a pre-planned massacre.
	And how did they send thousands of missiles into Israel?
	Because they were supplied by Iran.
	And we will ask those questions.
	We will wonder about how...
	This is Jonathan Greenblatt, the CEO of the Anti-Defamation League.
	How'd that failure happen?
	But I saw David Ignatius, whose journalism I so deeply respect, and whose reporting I appreciate, and he said, you know, they will look at, was this an intelligence failure?
	A military failure?
	Jonathan.
	Same playbook.
	This was the West's failure.
	This was our failure.
	For decades to allow Iran and its proxies to dehumanize Zionists and Jews, to allow people to think on college campuses at Harvard.
	To allow anti-Zionism to flourish.
	I'm sure you saw the reports that all these billionaires and business owners have said, oh, if you sign that note, At Harvard, we're never going to hire you.
	You're not hireable.
	You're a horrible person.
	We saw this in the 30s.
	Legitimate professors, students who came to believe the poison of the Third Reich, who came to think that in the wake of World War I, The Jews had literally abandoned Germany.
	And remember what Hitler said, it's the Jews who caused their own misfortune.
	Now we have Palestinian Hamas apologists and their acolytes here in the West, their accomplices.
	Jonathan saying Israel brought this on blaming the victim while we're still collecting the bodies is as disgraceful and as dishonorable a thing as I could ever imagine.
	The last thing I'll say, and I'm so sorry, but I don't ever remember feeling like this before, is that the idea, the notion that somehow this peace, this rapprochement with Saudi Arabia, they were trying to disrupt it.
	I think there's some truth to that.
	But let's be clear, that was a path to peace.
	Working out a deal that could have given the Palestinians and the Israelis the confidence to make a deal with the Palestinians.
	Terror reinforces, terror reinforces the conflict because that's what these barbarians want.
	We've got to stand up against them every time.
	So, you know, it doesn't matter what you say.
	You're going to have someone yell at you.
	You might as well just not say anything.
	And even though I predicted these emails would come in, just two quick ones that I'll just read.
	Your take on Israel and the massacre at the music festival being an op is disgusting.
	Long-time listener, I think I'm done now.
	Here's my fake.
	What was the first line?
	You said what?
	You said it was an op?
	Says, your take on Israel and the massacre at the music festival being an op is disgusting!
	We never said it was an op!
	No, in fact, we said it... No.
	I never said it was an op.
	It might have been an inside job, but not an op.
	Well, the way I see it is that this was allowed to take place for some reason or other, because there's no way that this could have been a surprise.
	That's all as far as I took it.
	Those people were genuinely killed.
	It wasn't an op.
	Well, you'll like this next one.
	I bet I will.
	And by the way, we don't need people like that in this audience.
	No, but it's important to... I think it's important to show this, that the strife is even within No Agenda Nation.
	It's bound to happen.
	We had the same thing with the Ukraine.
	We lost a lot of listeners.
	Oh yeah, with the Ukraine war.
	And I guess it turns out to be pretty spot-on about that one.
	Of course!
	You sound like a neocon, that's the subject.
	From it's not a real country to the nice Jews were just going to pray in the temple.
	You're neocons... What?
	Just let me read it.
	You're neocons... I'm gonna start over, it's so good.
	Start over, but I'm just saying, this is like, is he listening to our show?
	Yeah, but this is what happens when people get infected by the media virus.
	It's a true- when you- when people throw at you 9-11, the first thing I think is, Dancing Israelis!
	Or whatever.
	From it's not a real country to the nice Jews were just going to pray in the temple, your neocon Zionist biases are becoming obvious and you sound like Dan Von Geno or your buddy Glenn Beck.
	Playing Wesley Clark's clip and not connecting it to the Zionist project and the ancillary projects like mass immigration, pornography, trans, attacks on free speech that they do to us, which they did to Germany until they rose up against Jewry and butthurt bankers, thus rallied the world to destroy them.
	It is one tribal group doing all these things, and you know it.
	No matter how hard your Jewish wife, John, henpecks you, it's going to do your soul good to tell the truth and connect the dots.
	Or are you going to convert to take part in the blood rituals the sick in the head Jews want to return to and desecrate whole Muslim holy sites?
	You are already halfway there as a Christ cuck.
	It's sad.
	So this is how- Christ Cuck?
	Yeah, my Christ- Wow!
	It's a great show title.
	Christ- That's a great phrase.
	Christ Cuck.
	So, a little historical background.
	I like doing this, because this comes from- we don't get any of this in the United States, and this of course is TRT, Turkish Radio and Television.
	And so they come at it from a perspective that they start off by, I think, misnomer of Palestine.
	It used to be Syria-Palestina.
	But okay, they're going to give us the history of Britain's role and subsequently the League of Nations and the United Nations in this entire thing.
	And you just don't get any of these perspectives.
	Forget about The obvious slant they're putting on it, because you can refute a lot of what they're saying.
	But I think some of this is good to hear for people who just have no perspective, because as long as I've been alive, and as long as you've been alive, this crap has been going on.
	I mean, ever since you were a boy.
	Yeah, I'm sure you remember.
	It's always been going on.
	I remember just two quick stories.
	One, when I was at Berkeley, it was every day there was some Jewish guy and a Palestinian guy yelling at each other on the Sprawl Plaza.
	That was every day.
	And then I went, I told the story about this before, which is a three hour lecture I heard at Wheeler Auditorium with Phil Spector.
	And this was very long ago, and Phil Spector mentioned in his speech that when he was a kid this had been going on.
	This is never ending.
	And just for a biblical history, this goes back to Isaac and Ishmael.
	Briefly, Abraham and Sarah were told they were gonna have a son, this son would, you know, all the tribes of Israel would come out of this, and Sarah, and they were like 70 or something, like, okay, yeah, sure, God, and Sarah's like, eh, this is taking too long, so she brought her handmaiden, Hagar, and said, hey, Abraham, why don't you lay with her, as they say in biblical terms, and out of that came Ishmael, but, you know, she usurped God,
	And so then eventually she had Isaac, miracle, and this literally was the Jew and the Arab who hate each other.
	This is literally where it comes from.
	This is why when I was in Bangkok with my friend Ben Cohen, Israeli who grew up in or lived in Amsterdam, there were just two Arab guys who came into this restaurant.
	I think it was a McDonald's in Bangkok of all things.
	And they were just dressed in blue jeans, you know, it wasn't anything.
	And he said, look at him, look at him, they hate me.
	They look at how they hate me.
	And I, meanwhile, I could feel his hate.
	I'm like, what, what is your problem?
	It goes back this far.
	So now we go into the history of Israel.
	This is the, and of course, I mean this goes back to the Ottoman Empire.
	Do kids even learn about the Ottoman Empire in school anymore?
	Only a hundred years ago.
	Not that long ago.
	Nobody is taught any of this.
	No.
	And it's important.
	When you think Palestine, you may think violence, land seizures, and a decades-long Israeli occupation.
	But what you might not know is that another country plays a driving role in causing the region's conflict.
	Imperial Britain.
	From 1516 to at least 1917, Palestine was under the control of the Ottoman Empire.
	A religiously diverse land where Christians, Muslims and Jews lived alongside one another, at peace for the most part.
	Then in the early 1900s, a small number of European Jews were trying to drum up support for Zionism and the establishment of a Jewish homeland.
	Just 20 years before, in 1897, the movement led by Theodor Herzl was initiated at a conference in Switzerland.
	They decided that they would advocate for a Jewish homeland in Palestine, but the movement at the time didn't have much support.
	And at the time, only around 8% of the population of Palestine was Jewish.
	At the same time, Arab nationalism was on the rise and many Palestinians wanted an independent state.
	Imperial Britain knew of both the ambitions of Zionists and Palestinians, and used the situation to bolster their own interests.
	In 1914, amid World War I, Britain went to war with the Ottoman Empire.
	And in 1915, Henry McMahon, Britain's representative in Cairo, approached Arab leaders with a proposal.
	Britain would agree to Arab independence if they helped fight against the Ottomans.
	Then in 1917, Britain's Foreign Secretary wrote a one-paragraph letter to Walter Rothschild, a leading figure in the British Jewish community.
	It read, His Majesty's Government views with favour the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people.
	and will use their best endeavors to facilitate the achievement of this object.
	This letter became known as the Balfour Declaration.
	This is important because I think even today's kids should at least learn about the Balfour Declaration.
	I mean, it gives you a little more context than this drivel, this absolute drivel that is being seeped out of television.
	And people don't even watch television, but all these clips get onto social media, and some has even taken out of context, It's just horrible how over-socialized and under-educated people are.
	And it was in stark contrast to a declaration of the British and French armies in 1918, which assured the people of Syria, Palestine and Mesopotamia of autonomy.
	So what was going on?
	Britain had promised independence to the Arabs that lived in Palestine, but then also promised a homeland for Jews on land that was already inhabited.
	Was Britain just transferring land that did not belong to them to whoever they liked?
	When the Ottoman Empire collapsed in 1918, the League of Nations gave Britain a mandate or administrative control of Palestine in 1920.
	It was a dual mandate.
	On one hand, they were to act on behalf of Palestinians, but on the other hand, they were to act on behalf of the international community of Jews who wanted to establish a homeland.
	Britain then drew up arbitrary borders, transferring the eastern bank of the Jordan River to the Hirshemites.
	It was under the British mandate that Jews from Europe began to immigrate to Palestine and buy up land.
	The Jewish population in Palestine grew tenfold from 60,000 to more than 600,000 between 1918 and 1947.
	Many Palestinians saw the mass influx of Jews as a European colonial movement.
	What's interesting is the video that goes along with this.
	You literally see checkpoints with people on horses.
	Yeah, it's the same thing.
	It's been going on for a long time.
	The checkpoints, there were no cars.
	People on horses.
	So as one might expect, it led to conflict.
	In 1929, riots broke out at the Wailing Wall in Jerusalem.
	Both Palestinians and Jews lost lives.
	In 1936, after Jewish immigration increased even more, more riots broke out.
	This time, the British were heavy-handed and killed between 2,000 and 5,000 Palestinians.
	A Royal British Commission concluded that because Britain had allowed mass immigration, Palestine had two distinct societies that couldn't be reconciled.
	I love how Britain kind of... No one really talks about Britain being the actor they were.
	You're behind the whole thing.
	That's the reason they're so guilt-ridden.
	Yes!
	And they're jumping in, oh we're going to do whatever we have to.
	Oh yeah, it's 40 seconds left.
	They recommended a partition of the land.
	The Arab Higher Committee rejected this, saying it was all their land.
	Britain then banned the Arab Higher Commission.
	They introduced the White Paper of 1939.
	The White Paper!
	It stated that Palestine should be a binational state inhabited by Jews and Palestinians, but that Jewish immigration would be limited for five years.
	But illegal immigration still went on.
	And when Britain couldn't handle the mess they had a part in creating, they handed the country back to the UN in 1948.
	The UN then decided to partition Palestine.
	The story gets a lot more complicated after this, but the British promising land which already belonged to Palestinians to other people has played a part in decades of conflict and bloodshed.
	All right.
	So the UN, the UN's like, ah, we should have a two-state solution.
	Another thing I've been hearing all my life, and here is our current United Nations, uh, what is it?
	Is it Director General?
	Is it President?
	Chief?
	Whatever.
	This most recent violence does not come in a vacuum.
	The reality is that it grows out of a long-standing conflict with a 56-year-long occupation and no political end in sight.
	I am deeply distressed by today's announcement that Israel will initiate a complete siege of the Gaza Strip.
	Nothing allowed in, no electricity, food or fuel.
	Israel must see its legitimate needs for security materialized.
	And Palestinians must see a clear perspective of the establishment of their own state realized.
	Only a negotiated peace that fulfills the legitimate national aspirations of Palestinians and Israelis, together with their security alike, the long-held vision of a two-state solution in line with the United Nations resolutions, international law, and previous agreements, can bring long-term stability to the people of these lands and the wider Middle East region.
	Thank you.
	Thank you very much.
	Whatever.
	Same old, same old.
	Thank you.
	Same old.
	A quick biblical reference, Matthew 24.
	This is Jesus on the mount.
	He says, You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed.
	Such things must happen, but the end is still to come.
	Nation will rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom.
	So, you know, as a Christian, I'm like, yeah, okay, I guess maybe we're there.
	But then comes this.
	There'll be famines and earthquakes in various places.
	There is another major story developing overseas.
	At least 2,000 people have died after twin earthquakes in Afghanistan near the border with Iran.
	Hundreds of people are believed to be trapped in the rubble.
	A lack of modern equipment is hampering the rescue efforts.
	No worries.
	All these are the beginning of the birth pains.
	Actually, it's 3,000.
	It's an old report.
	It's at least two hours old.
	There's another issue here that's not being discussed in the West, and that is war crimes, which are apparent on both sides.
	For me, I just want to say, war crimes to me is the same as hate speech.
	I mean, well, it's like, okay.
	There are certain specific things, and I want to play these three clips.
	You got it.
	This is war crimes lead-in, Al Jazeera.
	Well, Paddy Culhane joins me now from Washington D.C.
	for more on this, and Blinken on his way now.
	What is he actually hoping to achieve by going himself?
	Well, first and foremost, it sends the message.
	It backs up with the President's words that the U.S.
	is fully behind Israel.
	But there's going to be discussions.
	And one thing we've noticed in the last 24 hours is the U.S.
	has really started to shift focus to trying to get a humanitarian corridor out of Gaza.
	He said on the tarmac that he's been speaking to officials in Egypt and in Israel.
	He said it was complicated.
	He didn't explain exactly where the negotiations were being held up.
	He wouldn't answer that.
	But it is very clear, and we're hearing this from the White House, from the Secretary of State, that they are pushing to have some way to get civilians out of Gaza, get Americans out, get civilians out.
	They are working that.
	Undoubtedly, that is going to be a huge part of the conversation.
	And that leads us to a problem that no one wants to talk about in our media.
	This is clip two.
	And Joe Biden has just been holding a meeting with Jewish leaders at the White House.
	What did they have to talk about and did he make any announcements off the back of that?
	Well, he actually moved the needle a little bit.
	We watched his speech just the other day, and it was a full-throated, angry, really emotional speech from U.S.
	President Joe Biden about this.
	And some were critical of him because he didn't call for any sort of restraint from Israel.
	It was a full-throated endorsement.
	Well, he was speaking to this group.
	He told them he had spoken to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and that he told them that he had, even though people are very angry, that they have to follow the rules of war.
	And so that seems to me to be putting a baseline on what they expect from the Israeli operation.
	Critical thing is that would be the civilian corridor because it is against the laws of war to not let civilians escape.
	And also might call into question that total blockade of Gaza.
	That is a war crime according to all rules of law, the Geneva Convention.
	So he's sending possibly a subtle message to Israel that there are things that the U.S.
	will not condone.
	This is going to be a problem.
	You can't cordon off an entire area and just pummel them and not allowing them to escape.
	That is a war crime by any standards as far as I'm concerned.
	I don't think it's like hate speech.
	It's really you just can't put someone in a cage and then just bomb the shit out of them because it's fun.
	I want to give you 24 seconds, because this is, of course, the problem.
	This is from last year.
	This is von der Leyen talking about Russia.
	Yesterday we saw again Russia's targeted attacks against civilian infrastructure, targeted attacks.
	Okay.
	Excellent clip to pull out of the hat.
	You get to call it that sometimes, I guess.
	Not always, but sometimes.
	That was a good one.
	Yeah, okay.
	With the winter coming, these are acts of pure terror.
	And we have to call it as such.
	Okay.
	Excellent clip to pull out of the hat.
	You get to call it that sometimes, I guess.
	Not always.
	That was a good one.
	Yeah, okay.
	Well, here's the final for this war crime stuff.
	And Petty, can you just give us a bit more of an idea about what sort of military aid the U.S. has is actually sending Israel?
	They are being incredibly vague.
	As you know, I'm the defense correspondent, so I've been speaking to people at the Pentagon.
	And there was concern even before this happened in Israel that they were going to run out of ammunition.
	Hold on a second.
	of ammunition to ukraine they've been trying to ramp up production but it obviously takes time this official has told me on background that basically yes we believe we can give israel some of what it needs because we've got stockpiles all over the globe hold on a second all that we had left was cluster munitions is that what we're sending over now They don't know.
	In fact, only Al Jazeera has mentioned this, because we talk about it on the Army.
	They say, oh, we're giving them, hey, we're sending some ships down there to block the Mediterranean.
	We're there.
	But they don't say what we're sending them.
	Al Jazeera tried to dig into it, and they can't find out.
	We don't know if it's cluster munitions or if it's bubble gum.
	There's no idea.
	That said, they've been very vague.
	They said we want to give them munitions for the Iron Dome defense system, obviously.
	And then other than that, they really haven't given very many details.
	Now, if Israel is going to launch a ground invasion, it is by far the most challenging type of warfare in existence.
	It is exceptionally dangerous and deadly.
	So if Israel has decided what they want to do, likely with Secretary Blinken, they're going over some of those plans.
	Finding out where some of those shortfalls are.
	If they are going to do a ground incursion in an incredibly densely populated area with very narrow streets, they'll need things like night vision goggles.
	They'll need ammunition, perhaps better body armors.
	So really they're, I think, trying to get a sense of where Israel is going to take this and what the US can do to help them.
	Okay, thank you so much.
	That is Petty Culhane for us in Washington, D.C.
	TRT had a report about what's being sent and what the U.S.
	is doing to support Israel.
	Here it is.
	U.S.
	President Joe Biden called Hamas' attack on Israel an atrocity on an appalling scale, promised that the U.S.
	has Israel's back, and then issued a warning.
	Let me say again.
	To any country, any organization, anyone thinking of taking advantage of the situation, I have one word.
	Don't.
	Don't.
	That's actually a contraction.
	It's actually two words.
	But even so, wait, even so he said it twice.
	I have one word.
	Don't.
	Don't.
	Our hearts may be broken, but our resolve is clear.
	Biden tried to separate the Palestinian people from Hamas.
	Hamas does not stand for the Palestinian people.
	By the way, I'm sorry.
	This is our president now.
	I have one word.
	Don't.
	And our president then.
	I have two words for you.
	Predator drones.
	I mean, come on!
	That was cool!
	Predator drones!
	Two words!
	Our hearts may be broken, but our resolve is clear.
	Biden tried to separate the Palestinian people from Hamas.
	Hamas does not stand for the Palestinian people's right to dignity and self-determination.
	Ah, okay.
	Its stated purpose is the annihilation of the State of Israel and the murder of Jewish people.
	National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan says the death toll of Americans killed in the Hamas attack has grown to more than a dozen, with nearly two dozen unaccounted for.
	But it's not clear how many of those are being held hostage by Hamas.
	Sullivan said there are still no plans to put U.S.
	forces into the conflict, and that, for now, the U.S.
	is only helping Israel beef up its Iron Dome defense shield, and providing expertise and intelligence, and sending a flotilla of warships toward Israel as a deterrent.
	A flotilla?
	Isn't a flotilla a certain amount?
	I don't know.
	Let me check it out.
	Nobody uses the term flotilla.
	There's a term for what they sent.
	Well, let me see.
	Flotilla.
	Isn't that like a bunch of rafts?
	Small fleet of vessels, commercial or otherwise.
	It's not a small fleet.
	It's a big fleet.
	They send an aircraft carrier and a bunch of destroyers.
	It's not small.
	No, that's not a flotilla.
	That's a fleet.
	But he was asked how much of Israel's retaliation, its destruction in Gaza, Is the U.S.
	willing to tolerate?
	I don't think of this in terms of retaliation.
	This is about providing support to Israel as it seeks to defend its territory and deal with an ongoing imminent threat from Hamas terrorists.
	Still, the Biden administration is talking to officials in Israel and Egypt about providing a safe passage to Palestinians, perhaps through Egypt, even though Egypt has been reluctant in the past to open up its Gaza border to them.
	And that is sure to be one of the topics when U.S.
	Secretary of State Antony Blinken arrives in Israel later this week.
	Oh, that's all you need.
	You need Blinken.
	Send Nuland.
	That'll make it even more fun.
	Well, they didn't say in that report, which you falsely promoted, that they didn't say what they said, except some parts for the Iron Dome.
	No, I said that they tried to get the answer, too.
	So they also had no answer.
	You can't get the answer except the parts.
	Raytheon apparently got to send some stuff.
	Because nobody else is using this, you know, these Patriots.
	So this is how I'm going to view this conflict and what happens for the next period of time.
	I mean, I do not think this is going to And swiftly, it's going to expand.
	Just like COVID.
	Just like 9-11, really.
	This is a liquidity event.
	And we're in more need of it than ever.
	I would say, I don't know much about the public markets, but I see the issue with everyone, you know, going into bonds.
	All of a sudden, on Friday, everything reversed.
	The dollar started to, this is before this attack happened.
	The dollar reversed, the bond yields started to go down, stocks were looking more attractive, all the Fed presidents were coming out, hey, economy's great, everything's good.
	Then this happens.
	And we had a little blip there where, oh, everyone's all, oh, stocks are going to go up, and I think today it's down again.
	So we need money.
	The military-industrial complex needs money.
	Right now we're in a shutdown situation.
	So they couldn't get the $24 billion they wanted for Ukraine.
	I mean, it's so obvious.
	So, so obvious that how much money is going to be created for this.
	I don't think we have a war chest per se.
	I don't think we have anything, I mean, what, we have stuff for everybody?
	Well, like that one report said, they've got stockpiles all over the world!
	Yeah, well, we didn't have it for Ukraine, but I think, you know, we're going to go into money printing mode.
	And the markets need it, the banks need it.
	Oh, I'm so happy we don't have a cap on our national debt.
	That's convenient that there's no statutory debt at the moment, you know, no ceiling.
	And then of course, even though I truly believe... Here's some disinformation that came out.
	But it actually falls right, it leads, it folds into this topic of money for the military-industrial complex.
	So going around, whenever you see a clip that is 12 or 15 seconds long that is an oh my god I can't believe it, you shouldn't.
	So the oh my god I can't believe it clip that's been going around is of Rear Admiral Kirby of the, you know, the National Security Council.
	Say, here's the headline on the tweet.
	We're leaving, we're gonna step away from Ukraine!
	No more funding for Ukraine!
	Look, here, he said it!
	Crane funding, we're coming near to the end of the rope.
	I mean, today we announced $200 million, and we'll keep that aid going as long as we can, but it's not gonna be indefinite, so... It's not gonna be indefinite?
	Oh no, that's it, we're ending support for Ukraine?
	No!
	No, it is quite the opposite.
	He is pleading for more money for everything.
	Here's the full minute.
	Can you provide us anything on a timeline or give us a sense of how quickly the U.S.
	would exhaust what it can provide to Israel before congressional actions?
	We have existing authorities and appropriations to support Israel in the near term.
	And I got asked last time, you know, what is near term or what's a bit mean?
	I can't give you a date set on the calendar because a lot of it's going to depend on their expenditure rate and what the replenishment ability is, what the need is, and what our ability to do it is.
	But in the near term, we've got appropriations and authorities for both Ukraine and for Israel.
	But you don't want to be trying to bake in long-term support when you're at the end of the rope.
	And in Ukraine, on the Ukraine funding, we're coming near to the end of the rope.
	I mean, today we announced $200 million.
	And we'll keep that aid going as long as we can.
	But it's not going to be indefinite.
	So are we moving with a sense of alacrity?
	Absolutely.
	I couldn't give you a date certain on the calendar.
	So, no, no, no, what he's saying is not that we're stepping away from Ukraine.
	No, we're doubling down.
	We need more for Ukraine.
	Yes?
	Actually, the point you made about if you see a 15 second clip going around, I see these all the time and I'm always trying to find the original.
	Yeah.
	Which is what we both do.
	But when you see something like that going around, yeah, it's taken out of context to fool you.
	Yes.
	And all you have to do is do a little digging, and I don't know why nobody but this show seems to do that.
	So now let's... And it's really remarkable to me since we only had 41 people out of the almost million people that listen to the show that even bothered to contribute over $50 for this particular show.
	You know, we could turn the cameras on, both sit here with headphones, and then talk about the outrage of the babies.
	And we're going to bomb them!
	Oh yeah, we'd make twice as much money.
	And we'd make twice as much money, if not more.
	So, two theaters we're going to add to this.
	We don't have to go too deep into it, but you probably heard about the pipeline, the Finland gas pipeline.
	Well, it looks like that was some Terrorism, someone blew up that pipeline.
	Of course, Finland is a brand new NATO member.
	What are the chances?
	So out comes Jens Stoltenberg, the head honcho of NATO, with Zelensky literally standing next to him like a little boy.
	And here's what Jens says.
	We will also address the incident in the Baltic Sea with the damage close to critical undersea infrastructure.
	I spoke with President Sauli Niinistö and Prime Minister Kayak Halas yesterday and we are in close contact.
	The important thing now is to establish what happened and how this could happen.
	If it is proven to be a deliberate attack on NATO critical infrastructure, Then this will be, of course, serious, but it will also be met by a united and determined response from NATO.
	Yeah, Article 5.
	Because Finland is now a NATO country, so if someone did anything to that pipeline, Putin, if anyone did something to that pipeline, oh, oh, oh, Article 5 response.
	So, we have all... How about this for an idea?
	What if it was Zelensky's boys, the Ukrainians, who did something to that pipeline just to stir things up, and we find out that it was them, does NATO attack them now?
	Dream on!
	No, we want more wars.
	War is good for business.
	It's good for business.
	And now, the final frontier, besides, sadly I think Lebanon is, there's not much to rubbleize in Lebanon anymore, but You know, it's on the West Clark 7 list, so we'll just add it there.
	That wouldn't take much.
	Well, I do have actually a couple of clips regarding the Hezbollah attack from Lebanon.
	Let's do that, let's do that.
	This is Hezbollah attack, and this is not what you hear from any of our media.
	Again, I have to go to Al Jazeera English for this.
	This is Hezbollah attack one.
	The Israeli army is trying to calm fears after a false alarm sent people nationwide scrambling for shelter Warning sirens rang out across northern Israel and flares were fired at the border as people across the country were told to seek shelter over a possible aerial infiltration from Lebanon The army now says the panic was caused by human error.
	Ali Hashim is in the town of Nakora in southern Lebanon near the border with Israel.
	Today was a very hectic day.
	It started with a Hezbollah attack on Israeli troops on the borders, mainly in Dehera, a village on the borderline.
	According to the pictures we saw from Hezbollah, it seems that there was a direct hit with guided missile.
	Now, following that, Israelis started shelling the villages surrounding the borders and there were two people injured.
	Now, later on this alarm came and there were these reports about planes, paragliders crossing towards the other side of the border.
	However, there was no genuine reason to understand why this alarm is coming out, because none of these paragliders were seen with eyes.
	Also, at the same time, these paragliders, the alleged paragliders, did not engage in a battle or in a fight on the ground.
	So later on, it was clarified that this is not right.
	This is interesting, this paraglider thing, paramotor, ultralights, everyone's using different words for it.
	It's also a 9-11 throwback to, these guys couldn't even fly a Cessna!
	And they flew these planes into buildings!
	Oh look, they're coming over with little paragliders and they're causing havoc!
	It's all just a different verse.
	It's like a reboot of Cheers.
	Whatever the case is, the non-existent paragliders, Part Clip 2 indicates that the Israelis are actually pounding the southern border of Lebanon as we speak.
	However, the Israeli army continued to launch Flares in the skies of South Lebanon also burning the bushes around the borders in order to deny any fighters a kind of a cover just in case they're trying to infiltrate the border.
	So it was a it was a hectic day for the Israeli troops on the Lebanese side and this clarified the situation whereas the tension is mounting day after day.
	In comparison with yesterday when rockets were launched and Hamas's Al-Qassam Brigades claimed responsibility or the day before where a group from Islamic Jihad infiltrated the borders and engaged in a battle with the Israelis.
	Today was a bigger day and it seems that this tension is going to continue.
	It's not going to stop and at least from what I understand this is going to continue as far as the campaign on Gaza is going to continue.
	Oh man, peanuts.
	This is the peanuts part.
	In the background, we need to slowly ramp up Iran.
	This is the prize.
	This is the big one.
	This is what, yeah, and it would be, would it be any better to have Israel attack Iran with our weapons?
	We win.
	That would have to be what, that would have to be it.
	And the Washington Post, whoa.
	WAPO has Iran on their mind.
	So we had Chuck Schumer, Senator Schumer, went to talk to President Xi as the representative of the United States.
	Our president can't get a meeting with him, so send the next best thing.
	And so here's a question from a WAPO journal.
	He asks a question about Xi, but he also asks, he slips in a question about Iran.
	The answer is somewhat surprising.
	Thank you very much.
	Just following up on what you just said, how did they respond specifically on the point of Iran?
	How did President Xi respond on that?
	And more broadly, if I could just ask a broader question.
	Many analysts cite a lack of trust between the U.S.
	and China as one of the biggest stumbling blocks to better ties between the countries.
	After your meeting with President Xi today, do you trust him more or less than you do?
	Let me just say this.
	Both sides, the Chinese and us, said unless we have sincere conversations about our differences, and not pull any punches, that we would never solve these problems.
	And the thing that I think we respected is the Chinese leadership from President Xi on down understood that we were going to be strong, understood that we're going to be tough, but also understood that's a necessity if we're ever going to improve the relationship.
	On the first question, he listened.
	Now listen to Schumer not having the answer, but his handlers giving him the answer.
	I don't recall him saying anything specific on it, but he listened several times.
	They said they would deliver the message.
	Go ahead.
	They said they would deliver the message.
	To the Iranians.
	Yes.
	Okay.
	Okay?
	They said they would deliver the message to the Iranians.
	So WAPO has Iran in their sights.
	WAPO, I would say, is compromised.
	They just fired... Really?
	They just fired 10% of their workforce.
	They fired 200 people, for whatever reason.
	There is a scandal brewing.
	The special envoy to Iran from the U.S.
	State Department, Robert Malley, has kind of disappeared.
	He was supposed to show up in some hearings, and he couldn't make it, and now he's gone away, and we don't know where he is, and uh-oh, WAPO has intercepted some emails and communications between him One of his fellow State Department or former State Department workers now at the Pentagon with Iran.
	It turns out we had an Iranian spy in the State Department.
	Remember now there's all this noise about Donald Trump leaking the plans to attack Iran.
	No, then he had it, and then someone else had it, and who knows who had it.
	But WAPO, and this has been going on for a few weeks, no one's really talking about it.
	This is Michael Christensen.
	He's on BitChute, so you know, you know it's good.
	And he gives us a brief overview of what's happening with the special envoy and the spies, the Iranian spies in the State Department.
	Iran is bad!
	Right about the same time Malley was under suspicion, wow, sensitive U.S.
	government documents started showing up in Iran's state media.
	So our top Iran guy disappears for mishandling classified information, and classified information starts showing up in Iranian government hands.
	It's not hard to deduce what happened here, but this new report adds detail.
	Robert Malley wasn't really our top Iran guy.
	He was actually Iran's top America guy.
	According to the report and the emails it cites, Robert Malley was funding, supporting, and directing an Iranian intelligence operation designed to influence the United States.
	This project was called the Iranian Experts Initiative, so the experts strike again.
	Through it, the Iranian government was recruiting Western academics, meeting them abroad to receive their loyalty, and issue directions for how to influence the U.S.
	government.
	Of course, eventually, it wasn't just influence that Robert Malley achieved at the State Department.
	It was a job at the highest level crafting Iran policy.
	And Robert Malley brought his Iranian Experts Initiative friends to the administration, too.
	So while Malley is now officially out on leave, there's still at least one more in a high-level position who isn't.
	The emails in the report show a woman named Arianne Tabatabai is also a part of this Iranian influence network.
	Who is Tabatabai?
	Well, she's a person Robert Malley personally brought into Biden's administration.
	She was first at the State Department.
	She was a diplomat on Malley's Iran nuclear negotiation team under Biden.
	And now she works at the Pentagon, where she's currently the Chief of Staff for the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Special Operations.
	So not only did she negotiate with hostiles, while being part of a propaganda network for those hostiles, she's now working with our spec ops, who of course handle our most risky and difficult military operations should any heightened conflict arise.
	Emails were covered by the Wall Street Journal reporter show Tabatabai consulting with and seeking advice from Iran's foreign ministry before attending policy events.
	Before she gave congressional testimony in 2014, she asked an Iranian official for advice on how to deal with other witnesses who are Iran critics.
	She sent an Iran-sympathetic article she published in the Boston Globe to the So if you want something to crack open, you call your friends at WAPO.
	It's coming up.
	It's going to bubble up.
	We've got Mohammad Dayef.
	I guarantee you he'll show up in Iran.
	Oh yeah, we found him.
	We gotta smoke him out.
	A lot of these people go back to the very Middle East-centric Obama administration.
	This spy network is quite funny.
	It was written up in a couple of different places.
	Nobody knows quite what to make of it.
	Don't worry.
	It'll be twisted into something.
	Iran is bad.
	Iran.
	Iran, Iran, Iran, Iran.
	Let Israel do it.
	It all has to leave.
	Everyone's saying it.
	Every report.
	The Anti-Defamation League.
	Oh, it's Iran.
	Hezbollah?
	Iran.
	Hamas?
	Iran.
	It's all Iran.
	We've got to go out.
	We've got to go at the root.
	Smuggle out!
	The one-eyed, one-legged guy who planned it all, he's in Iran.
	You can just wait for it.
	Well, if that happens, I'm going to give you 10 points because that would be ideal.
	Which also means the whole thing's a scam.
	Well, this is what I believe.
	It's a scam, the military-industrial complex, it's for politics, it's being used for, it's getting all of the bad news off of the front, like even the bad news about the Ukraine conflict.
	Everything is just off the table.
	Don't worry about it.
	I was irked by this, by the way, as you can tell by my clips.
	Yeah.
	There was no way of getting any other news except this story.
	Clip Custodian sent me his normal batch.
	He's like, it's all Israel!
	I did get some other stories, I mean a few of them here and there, but they're all minor.
	Well, there's one other ancillary story.
	The thing about the Hunter Bidens, this is the real kicker to me, is the Hunter Bidens all of a sudden completely out of the picture.
	Of course.
	He's back to smoking crack and hookers.
	Good for him.
	So, now this is also a perfect opportunity.
	To enact and try out some of the new regulation in the European Union, the DSA, the Digital Services Agreement.
	Which, well, it's actually in this report, but spoiler alert, if you're a platform and you find hate speech or disinformation, you have to remove it immediately.
	Letters went out.
	Letters went out to Elon Musk.
	Letters went out to Mark Zuckerberg.
	There's bad things on your platform that will not stand in the European Union.
	As violence rages in Israel and Gaza, so does fake news on social media.
	The EU is making an urgent appeal to big tech.
	In a letter addressed to Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg on Wednesday, Thierry Breton, the bloc's industry chief, urged the platform to do more to curb disinformation or face penalties.
	It comes a day after Breton made a similar call to ex-owner Elon Musk.
	Since the start of the war, social media networks have been awash with graphic images Under the EU's Digital Services Act, large social media platforms like X are obliged to stop the spread of harmful content or face fines of up to 6% of their annual global revenue.
	Instead, experts say that X's algorithm is actively promoting disinformation on the Israel-Hamas war, favoring posts by accounts that pay for its blue-check subscription service, regardless of who runs them.
	Users can receive payment under the scheme, giving them more incentive to publish posts that are likely to elicit strong reactions and go viral.
	Well in a request for a comment made by CNBC, a MEDA spokesperson said, we quickly established a special operations center staffed with experts including fluent Hebrew and Arabic speakers to closely monitor and respond to this rapidly evolving situation.
	Our teams are working around the clock to keep our platforms safe Take action on content that violates our policies or local law and coordinate with third-party fact-checkers in the region.
	Fact-checkers in the region?
	And there was also a statement by ex-CEO Linda Iaccarino shortly, just a few minutes ago, saying that shortly after news broke about Hamas attack, ex-Assembled leadership, a leadership group to assess the situation since the terrorist attack on Israel, we've taken action to remove or label tens of thousands of pieces of Oh, of course.
	Only Hamas has disinformation.
	We go to our DSA dashboard.
	Last time we checked in with the DSA, the Digital Services Act, we had about 67,000 takedowns an hour.
	their platform oh of course only hamas has disinformation we go to our dsa dashboard last time we checked in with the dsa the digital services act uh we had about 67 000 takedowns an hour you care to wager what it's up to now john quarter of a million No, not quite.
	137,630.
	No, 137,630.
	Yes, there we go.
	Per hour.
	Per hour?
	Per hour.
	Over 5 million takedowns a day.
	Well, they're just taking everything down.
	My point exactly.
	So what you are seeing is only approved.
	Per hour?
	Per hour.
	Over five million takedowns a day.
	Well, they're just taking everything down.
	My point, exactly.
	So what you are seeing is only approved.
	It's only approved narrative.
	I think we can easily presume that.
	you So you're not getting anything from social media?
	You're getting nothing from the sounds of it.
	If you're taking down a hundred, a quarter, well, it's not a quarter of a million, but an eighth of a million per hour, that's a lot of posts.
	That means every eight hours a million posts are taken down.
	That's a million posts.
	That's a lot.
	It's a lot.
	And that's in eight hours and you get 24 hours is three.
	That's, you know, it's three million a day.
	It's ridiculous.
	Yeah.
	I know.
	So there, so it has to be willy nilly.
	There's no way.
	Well, no, it's, it's, it's complaint from the government.
	Take it down.
	Okay.
	Nothing has changed.
	Nothing has changed.
	I'd say the agents are still inside of X and everywhere else.
	Platforms are no good!
	Although I do like kind of the insinuation that X is the worst because they pay people with blue check marks for posts.
	That's the Twitter X payment system.
	Yeah, you pay eight bucks and you get a blue check mark.
	Yeah, but no, but then you can join their monetization program.
	And if you get people commenting on your posts and they're able to sell ads, boom, you get some money.
	I'm doing it.
	Tell me this isn't an old story.
	Just talking about big tech for a second.
	Somehow I feel like this story, I couldn't find a clip, but we've heard it before.
	Amazon's Alexa has apparently been claiming the 2020 presidential election was stolen.
	The voice assistant cites various sources when answering questions about the election, including from a video streaming service popular with conservatives called Rumble.
	Multiple investigations uncovered no evidence of election fraud and Amazon says for their part, responses were errors delivered a small number of times and quickly fixed.
	Why do I think I've heard this story before?
	I never heard this story before.
	I'm usually pretty good about it.
	It must be, must be.
	Yeah, you have a memory for this and so you should have, maybe it's floated around.
	I was looking for a clip.
	I could not find a clip.
	I do have a couple quick big tech things unless you want to stay in the region.
	Well, let's see, I got the Hezbollah attack run down.
	Do you have anything from the region?
	Are we still stuck in the region?
	The region, the region.
	In the region.
	West Bank killings.
	Oh, this is kind of interesting.
	You know, they're shooting people in the West Bank, which has nothing to do with Gaza, but okay.
	Where is it?
	It's just war.
	Uh... West Bank killed.
	Oh, the war!
	Israeli settlers have killed at least four Palestinians in attacks on a village south of Nablus in the occupied West Bank.
	The Palestinian Health Ministry says Israeli forces have also killed a 16-year-old boy near Hebron.
	29 Palestinians have been killed in the occupied West Bank since the war began on Saturday.
	Hmm.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, I thought that was gonna kill everybody.
	The other one, I want to play this.
	This is a protest for Palestinians in the EU and how it kind of contrasts with what we're doing here in the United States.
	The French police in the city of Lyon used force to break up a demonstration in support of Palestinians on Wednesday.
	It comes after a decision by city officials to ban gatherings local activists had planned for later in the week.
	Authorities in Paris have also imposed prohibitions on pro-Palestinian marches.
	French President Emmanuel Macron has condemned Hamas' attack on Israel but opposes stopping the European Union's humanitarian assistance to Palestinians.
	Pro-Palestinian demonstrations have also been taking place in the German capital Berlin with a large police presence.
	Melissa Chan has more.
	Police have just told everyone in the area to disperse.
	They have banned all Palestinian solidarity protests over the next few days.
	Particularly in Germany, this is a touchy subject because of the history of the country.
	The history of World War II and the Nazis and the Holocaust, which means that the German government and the German people, many of them consider something as simple as waving the Palestinian flag as anti-Semitic.
	This is just, you know, this is always the red flag and the old German arguments to denounce and actually persecute Palestinian voices for their rights in Palestine.
	Palestinians also have the right to do whatever they want.
	They have been paying for 75 years and that's not okay.
	Now over the next few days, emotions are going to run high.
	There's also a big Israeli community here and police say one reason why they're banning protests is to prevent the two sides from clashing.
	Melissa Chan, Al Jazeera, Berlin.
	It's all meant to trigger trauma.
	Yeah, that was your basic thesis and I think you're right.
	I have one last clip for this kind of thing.
	This is the Democrats.
	No support for Israel.
	This is from New Tang Dynasty.
	Some Democrats fear support for Israel among their party might be waning.
	This comes as some lawmakers voice support for Palestine while others are distancing themselves.
	Some Democrats reportedly fear that members of their party might stop supporting Israel.
	Sentiments in the U.S.
	in the past few days since the attacks were mostly pro-Israel.
	However, that might change.
	One unnamed Democratic lawmaker told Politico, for the last couple of days, we've seen all the pictures of girls who were killed at this festival and the children.
	The lawmaker says this will change now as the counteroffensive begins.
	Have you actually, I've been honest, it's part of research.
	I have looked, have you seen a lot of people killed at the festival?
	I'm not disputing it, but have we actually seen that?
	I've seen... There's one telegraph, telegram site that has all these pictures, it's pretty elaborate, there's hundreds and hundreds of pictures, but specifically from that festival, no.
	No.
	I've not seen anything either.
	Because they just reported that they've seen that.
	And it's like the babies.
	I'm not disputing it, but I have not seen the pictures and the newsletter you sent out was on point.
	But it was on point.
	I played up the bullshit pictures.
	I did get a note from somebody regarding that girl that they kept showing over and over and over again being taken out of the back of a jeep and then being put in the front of the jeep.
	Which I saw MSNBC claiming She was raped and she was bleeding.
	Like, you have no evidence of that.
	When I saw that first, and I'm sorry that, you know, to bring up this is traumatic to see it.
	To me, it looked like someone who crapped their pants because they were so terrified.
	That's what it looked like to me.
	Or any other many reasons, but it was presented as fact.
	Well, she could have been sitting in blood too, for all you know.
	It was presented as fact.
	No, and then they had this guy who seemed to be in blackface for some reason.
	He shoots a gun in the air, pulls her out of the back, yells Allahu Akbar, shoots the gun, and then puts her in the seat, in the comfy seat.
	I mean, what was the point of this?
	And somebody sent a note and saying, this was a great, this is low budget filmmaking.
	He says it only cost them one bullet, you know, and a day's pay for that, a borrowed Jeep.
	I mean, it was really kind of crummy.
	I can hear keyboards clicking.
	Don't send that email to us.
	We're just, we're just.
	We're just looking at media and trying to understand what the messaging is.
	We're not here to bring you the truth of what actually happened.
	We don't have it.
	Nobody does.
	Exactly.
	That's the point.
	But it's being presented as fact.
	We'll continue with your clip here.
	The only images we're going to see for the next couple of weeks are dead Palestinians.
	Earlier this year, a Gallup poll found that Democrats' opinions on Israel have changed significantly.
	49% of Democrats now say they sympathize more with Palestine, while only 38% say they sympathize more with Israel.
	That's the first time more Democrats have said their sympathies are more with Palestine than with Israel in the 20 years the poll has been conducted.
	Another Democratic lawmaker told Politico, the key is making sure that this sentiment doesn't grow and metastasize.
	Meanwhile, Democratic Representative Rashida Tlaib is still flying the Palestinian flag in front of her office.
	Republican Congressman Max Miller commented on that, saying, the Palestinian flag should not have a place here.
	That's why I sponsored an appropriations amendment to end this silliness.
	Under the amendment, foreign flags couldn't be displayed on Capitol Hill.
	No, only pride flags!
	No problem with that.
	I was thinking the same thing when I heard that.
	But, you know, there's a little element here that was kind of not...
	Notice by anybody else, which is this this idea that they've been polling Democrats and now the sympathy for the Israelis is down to 39% and the sympathy for the Palestinians up to 49%.
	This is a switcheroo and this may be part of the of the reason that you were going to bomb Iran.
	We got to do it now because this is not going to go.
	It's not going to reverse direction.
	Yes.
	It's a clear trend.
	Yeah.
	Hmm.
	That's, that's a good.
	You know what else is interesting with all these takedowns of misinformation?
	How is it that, I'm sure you've seen her, I didn't clip her, there's the Israeli blonde, Israeli woman, about 35, 40, now she must be over 40.
	who says 25 years ago she was in service.
	She was specifically, of course, all young people go into service in Israel.
	And she was in the intelligence division.
	And she's doing video after video after video about how this couldn't happen.
	There's no way.
	This was a setup.
	This could never happen.
	She brought in the cat thing again.
	Like you can sense a cat.
	You've got Brett Weinstein interviewing her.
	But yet she's allowed to continue. - Thank you.
	Explain that.
	Is she not disinformation?
	Why is she still on the air?
	Just someone you would take off just because.
	So, yeah, and she just continues.
	You cannot trust your social media.
	No, the media.
	Social media, hell with that.
	All media.
	Yeah, but people often are still like, oh, I can still get all this on social media.
	Look, I got the proof!
	Telegram!
	Oh, it's proof!
	Do you remember Giannis Varoufakis?
	Oh, yeah, whatever happened to him?
	Well, he has a good to tell you about bringing up an old name.
	Yes.
	Yeah, it was one of the first guys who was pushed to the curb, kicked to the curb.
	So this is when Greece was taken down by the U.S.
	banks.
	Was it Goldman and a couple others?
	Yeah.
	The guy in the motorcycle.
	Yes.
	Yes.
	Remember, it's not the it's not the gay social media guy.
	Another guy disappeared.
	You're thinking of, uh, what was that guy's name?
	The gay conservative with the blonde hair.
	Social media guy.
	He was also kicked to the curb.
	This is the Russian tumble, leather-wearing, bike-riding American.
	I think he ended up at the University of Texas.
	No, he's Greek.
	Milo.
	You're thinking of Milo.
	Milo.
	Milo, but this Greek guy ended up at the University of Texas, I think, teaching economics, didn't he?
	Well, he's an economics, he's an economist, economics professor, and when Greece was being thrust into austerity, and we covered all this, 2010, I want to say, so it's quite a while ago, and the Greeks, you know, what happened is the banks said, hey, we're calling in our loan, oh, you can't pay for it?
	Austerity for you!
	And all of the Northern Europe hated Greece?
	Yeah, this was right after the Greeks decided to join the Eurozone, which is their biggest mistake.
	And people would even go into Greek restaurants in like Holland and say, I'm not paying because you screwed us, you stole our money.
	It was horrible.
	So then this guy, and he's a Marxist, he admits it, I'm a socialist, I'm a Marxist, but he says in the traditional sense of the word, whatever that means.
	Whatever that means.
	And he became the Minister of Finance for six months.
	And all he did is he just said, no, no more loans.
	We're not taking any more loans, which was probably a good thing for Greece.
	And then his party got kicked out and he got kicked out and everyone got kicked out.
	And now, you know, all the wealth is in the north and the south of Greece.
	They're driving around in Lamborghinis and the rest of Greece is just crap.
	It's what you get.
	That's how it works.
	They are the ugly stepchild.
	So Yanis resurfaces with a very interesting book I've been reading called Techno-Feudalism.
	And it kind of folds into, you know, these platforms.
	And he says that capitalism is in essence over because capitalism is now slave to cloud capitalism.
	And that is all Silicon Valley based.
	It does not exist anywhere else except China.
	China does have WeChat.
	That is the big, the big competitor to the cloud capitalists here in the US.
	And he has a one minute, he's doing interviews all over YouTube.
	And I've been fascinated by a lot of what he's saying.
	I don't agree with all of it, of course.
	But this idea, this concept was something I think we should We should think about, as we see the world unfold, certainly with secret meetings about AI and all that crap.
	But what has happened is, if you're Jeff Bezos, if you are the owner of Google, of Apple, if you're Elon Musk, then you own this new form of cloud capital, which allows you to extract from the rest of society, from proletarians, but from everyone else as well, Huge quantities of rents and surpluses in a manner that reconstitutes a form of feudalism.
	The difference is that instead of the original feudalism, which is a system based on private ownership of land, which produces rent, now it's private ownership of the cloud, of cloud capital, because the cloud is capital, right?
	It's not some cloud up in the sky, which yields again a form of rent.
	Every time you buy something from Amazon.com, 40% of what you pay doesn't go to the capitalist who is selling you that stuff, it goes to Jeff Bezos.
	That's a cloud rent and he is a new form of feudal lord.
	I kind of agree with that.
	Yeah, well I sure don't.
	You don't?
	No.
	It all goes to Jeff Bezos.
	Well, I mean, of course it's not the Bezos.
	It's a public company.
	But Amazon, you know that people have a very hard time really making profit on Amazon.
	The same thing for Apple.
	Oh, you want to sell an app?
	30%.
	You want a subscription to something?
	30%.
	This is why you can't buy a Kindle through the app on Apple.
	They are charging rents for their platforms.
	It's true.
	I'm not saying that that's not true.
	Forget about the beat.
	That's just me.
	It's like minor.
	I mean, it's like one element of the... This whole idea of, what does he call it, kind of capitalism?
	Techno-feudalism.
	Techno-feudalism.
	It harkens back to the book called Surveillance Capitalism.
	It's a little different.
	I don't think it's that much different.
	It's the same kind of condemnation of tech from a perspective of like, well, these guys have made the money that I didn't get to make.
	It's just a kind of a jealous mode thing.
	I'm not buying any of it.
	I think Spotify tried to do this with podcasting.
	And that's where they got.
	See how far they got.
	But that's because of one special thing.
	The ragtag band of developers at Podcast Index.
	We thwarted their plan single-handedly.
	And how much effort did it take to thwart their plan?
	Not much.
	Compared to the billions that those guys dropped, not much.
	And that's only because of RSS.
	Google is still trying.
	They're trying to suck everybody into YouTube music.
	This is another anti-capitalist screed.
	Definitely.
	I've heard it before.
	It's just from a different angle.
	Anyway, just one quick... My feeling in general is that this is what somebody wants to try and do with AI.
	And I've listened to the whole interview with Sam Altman and Joe Rogan.
	Sam Altman is full of crap.
	All he says is, um, yes, AGI.
	It will probably be about, you know, three decades.
	Oh, okay.
	Well, we're... What?
	Yeah, it's just, you know, 30 years, we might have autonomous generative AI, you know, we'll have... Oh, he's getting closer to the truth.
	But even then, I mean, it's like, no, none of this is happening now.
	It's all bull.
	Well, let me bring us to a real bullshit artist.
	Please.
	You have to go into the last week's archives to get these three clips.
	Is it under bullshit?
	It should be.
	No, this is Maria Ressa.
	Okay.
	Oh, yes, on PBS.
	Oh, you got a three-parter!
	I'm excited!
	Okay.
	Now, if you want to hear somebody who doesn't know what they're talking about... Oh, this is PBS.
	This is great.
	I love this.
	...going on with that black, the new black anchor that's there, who just seems like a dummy.
	Is this the... It seems like... The girl?
	I don't know if he's gay or not.
	Oh, the guy.
	Oh, the guy.
	Yeah, yeah.
	That guy seems like a dumb gay guy to me.
	I couldn't be wrong.
	And they're the worst.
	John, say it.
	They're the worst.
	I like smart gay guys.
	So...
	This guy's lapping it up, and as you can see it in his eyes, he's got this look of, oh my god, we're all gonna die.
	Yeah, so hold on.
	Let's make sure we set up.
	Veteran journalist and past Nobel Peace Prize winner Maria Ressa has a dire warning about the defense of truth in the digital age.
	She says we risk losing the information war to adversarial artificial intelligence and to authoritarian governments who can weaponize that technology.
	And she's experienced it firsthand.
	In 2021, she won the Nobel Prize for fighting to protect freedom of expression in the Philippines under attack by the regime of then President Rodrigo Duterte.
	Jeff Bennett spoke with Ressa this week at the inaugural summit of the newly launched Institute of Global Politics at Columbia University.
	Maria Ressa, thank you so much for speaking with us.
	I appreciate it.
	Thanks for having me.
	You have said the world faces a tech-enabled Armageddon, turbocharged by generative artificial intelligence.
	Invoking Armageddon, sort of the final battle between good and evil, might strike some people as an overreach.
	It might strike some people as being hyperbolic.
	But why, in your view, is that an accurate characterization?
	I've lived through this.
	You know, I never thought I would get 10 arrest warrants in a little over a year, right?
	I never thought I would have to go to jail.
	I never thought that we would tear apart our shared reality and doubt facts, and that lies could spread faster than facts.
	MIT's 2018 study shows lies spread six times faster, and that has turned everything upside down.
	Now, wait a minute.
	Again, in Rappler, the organization I lead in the Philippines, we've been fighting for our survival since 2016.
	Now, wait a minute.
	Did she get arrested by an AI?
	Well, she'd like to make you believe them.
	No, she got arrested because she was a dissident in Duterte, under Duterte, when he was running things and he was like putting everyone in jail.
	And so she got arrested and fought the government or something.
	He, I guess, ended up, you know, he's gone.
	So she got a Nobel Peace Prize for being a do-gooder.
	And now she's an expert on AI with no tech background whatsoever.
	So what she's doing is she's equating AI with a dictator.
	Yeah.
	Who makes unintelligent decisions.
	I guess.
	Hmm.
	The fact that we're still here.
	Stop it.
	Now that you brought that up.
	Why is she on this show being interviewed by PBS breathlessly?
	That's what I'd like to know.
	Oh, come on.
	She's not an expert.
	It doesn't matter.
	Who is the expert on AI?
	Elon Musk?
	Well, she's not.
	They can't get Elon Musk.
	Sam Altman?
	He's boring.
	He's boring.
	Well, this girl's kind of boring, too.
	Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
	Here we go.
	The fact that we're still here shows you that doing the right thing is the right thing, but it's going to get worse.
	So the first time that you had... I'm sorry.
	The revelation of doing the right thing is the right thing.
	It is the right thing and it's gonna get worse.
	You bet.
	It's going to get worse.
	So, the first time that... They're supposed to say, yep, yep, not you bet.
	Oh!
	I cannot believe it!
	The jury will disregard my bet.
	It's yep yep.
	You had humanity con... First contact with AI is really machine learning.
	When everything that you post on social media, so this is social media right?
	Everything you post is pulled together by machine learning and then that's used to build a model of you that knows you better than you know yourself.
	Replace the word model with clone.
	So we're cloned.
	Then AI comes in and takes all of our clones, puts it together in a Motherlode database.
	That's what's used to... Does Oracle make that?
	The Motherlode database?
	I think Motherlode database is a great name for a product.
	You've heard of MSQL?
	Uh-uh!
	This is the motherlode database!
	Puts it together in a motherlode database.
	That's what's used to micro-target.
	Micro-targeting is not the same as media advertising.
	She's literally describing data brokers.
	It already exists, lady.
	It's not AI.
	Media advertising, you see the same things, right?
	Right.
	But micro-targeting sells your weakest moment to a message, to someone who will pay for it, and that could be a company or that could be a government, right?
	Right.
	And that nudges you, and when it becomes relentless, it becomes information operations.
	Those vulnerabilities in the tech platforms have been exploited by geopolitical power.
	America in 2016, 126 million Americans were impacted, were touched by Russian information warfare.
	Nice sound effect.
	Oh my goodness.
	All these platforms are going to suck.
	Everything's going to suck.
	Mastodon.
	You know, the idea of micro-targeting which is, you know, targeted advertising.
	Hello 1980.
	Hello 1970 for that matter.
	I mean, I first... I'm gonna get my milk.
	It's gonna be ordered the minute it's out in my fridge.
	It's gonna be so smart.
	The world will be groovy.
	Micro-targeting!
	So she's bringing this back to the 2022 era.
	And it's just unbelievable to me that this is being played on.
	PBS should be ashamed of itself for letting this woman ramble like this.
	She's not saying anything that means anything.
	This is all bullshit.
	You know, there are U.S.
	officials, there are tech leaders who have said that the future of this country looks fairly bleak if China Finds a way to develop AI technology faster than we do.
	So how do we on the one hand continue to innovate, but on the other hand implement solutions that don't strangle the innovation that we're trying to unleash?
	Ironically, China, which is far from democratic, has put guardrails in place around that.
	Yes, on their large language models, right?
	And while America says that... Just to say, on their large language models, right?
	It's like telling me, well, we all agree, China has large language models.
	They put it around.
	And they put guardrails around it.
	In the mother load database.
	Now, a journalist sitting there would have said, well, what specifically are those guardrails and how do they work?
	You don't think that that's going to come out of PBS as a question, do you?
	I think in some future world, maybe.
	Some past world, perhaps.
	We need a list of all these AI bullcrap words that Sam Alban, guardrails, guardrails.
	I like the guardrails word.
	Guardrails, yeah.
	Guardrails, they really work.
	Yeah, that's a good point.
	What are the guardrails?
	Yeah, what are they?
	And how do they work?
	Because it doesn't make sense to even say that.
	Has foot guardrails in place around that.
	Yes.
	On their large language models, right?
	No!
	No, there's no evidence, no stories, I don't know anything about this guardrails around their large language models right in the Motherlode database.
	While America says that, remember, these companies are driven by profit.
	Surveillance capitalism was the first contact with AI.
	Large language models will have the ability to mimic you.
	It mimics.
	Humanity.
	And when that happens, it also doesn't tell you it lies.
	It looks for patterns.
	It doesn't necessarily find meaning.
	That's what we've lost here.
	And if you look at the two ways AI have touched us, the first time it exploited our fear, anger and hate.
	Yeah, I'm going to agree.
	It mimics humanity.
	It lies.
	Yeah, because we're all liars.
	Of course.
	This is not great, man.
	You couldn't do lie without having AI?
	I was looking at photos.
	Where is it here?
	I put it in the show.
	It's at the end of that clip, by the way.
	Yeah, that is the end of the clip.
	It went on.
	I'm just telling people if you want to go look it up.
	Yeah, let me see.
	There was this associated press photo, and it was of a Black Lives Matter protest.
	And it's completely AI.
	There's people with six fingers.
	There's a guy in the background whose eye is like bulging and all blurred into a space.
	I love the bulging eyes.
	It's being, it's the six finger thing.
	It's just, it's not going away.
	AI is just not great.
	Show me a picture with, well, it should be four fingers and a thumb, but you know what I'm saying?
	It's not, it's just not great.
	People fall for it.
	I'm telling you, I am going to save the world for 3% of the people will be saved by our systems that we create with RSS.
	Just 3%.
	Everyone else is going to be a bluthering idiot.
	3% is a good number.
	And that's about what I think I can save.
	Is that good enough for a Nobel Peace Prize?
	Well, we'll have to exaggerate.
	We'll have to lie.
	We'll have to lie.
	Just like AI does.
	We'll have to lie.
	We'll have to lie, but we can manage it.
	Here's an example of a human being lying.
	This is a great example.
	This is, again, Rear Admiral Kirby, and he is asked a question about the President's thinking, but he's very clear in his obvious lie.
	I want to play this soundbite for you that is just last month in Vietnam and ask you if this still holds for the President.
	Watch.
	The only existential threat humanity faces, even more frightening than a nuclear war, is global warming going above 1.5 degrees in the next 20, 10 years.
	Given all the nuclear players in these two areas where we are now engaged on, does the President stand by that comment?
	Absolutely he does.
	Climate change is an existential threat.
	It actually threatens and is capable of wiping out all human life on Earth over time.
	Wait a minute, wait a minute!
	Global warming, climate change is in competition with AI.
	Who's gonna kill us faster?
	Human life on Earth over time, I mean that's, I don't know how more existential you can get to that, but that doesn't mean that we walk away from our obligations, our national security interests in very dangerous parts of the world.
	But John, he said it was more frightening than a nuclear war.
	Is that, it's more frightening than a nuclear war in this moment?
	The president believes wholeheartedly that climate change is an existential threat to all human life on the planet.
	That's just science.
	That's a fact, Martha.
	Science?
	Facts?
	But it doesn't mean that we can't go back on the other challenges facing this country and our allies and partners around the world.
	That's just science and fact, Martha.
	Okay, you get a clip of the day for that piece of shit.
	It's just science and fact, Martha.
	That's all that it is.
	I don't like that you disparage my clip that way, but I'll take the award.
	Thank you.
	And the fact that her name is Martha makes it better.
	That's just science and facts, Martha!
	It's just science and fact.
	It's just science and fact that we're all going to die from global warming.
	We're not because we're going to save the world.
	No, we're going to save the world with carbon credits and right on cue as predicted.
	Wait, wait.
	Carbon credits, does that change the amount of carbon that's released?
	Why are you trying to be difficult?
	Just sit back and relax and take the propaganda.
	Do you remember, I had the clips from the big climate change conference in Africa, and they were talking about land being carbon sink.
	So, you know, if you own a piece of land in Africa, you can turn that into a carbon credit.
	Yum.
	Well, what did you know?
	The United Arab Emirates Has inked a deal to buy a fifth, that's 20% of Zimbabwe's land, for carbon credits.
	This is great.
	7.5 million hectares.
	There's one born every minute.
	What is 7.5 million hectares?
	I think it's about 14 acres, 14 million acres, something like that.
	I think it's like two acres approximately per hectare.
	So there it is.
	I'll look it up.
	The global $2 billion voluntary carbon offset market allows carbon emitters to offset emissions by purchasing credits from emission reducing projects primarily in forest conservation.
	Okay, hectares 2.47 acres.
	So if I have three acres here, could I turn that into a carbon credit?
	Yeah.
	How much?
	Not much, but I could.
	Ten bucks?
	It's like a Bitcoin.
	I don't think it's worth a Bitcoin.
	No, but it's like a Bitcoin.
	You just say, I got this stuff.
	Oh yeah, you can make it, yeah.
	Whatever you can get for it.
	And if I plant a tree?
	Another carbon credit.
	Oh man, you're gold.
	We should have been doing this a long time ago.
	We really should have.
	Money in the bank.
	Money in the bank.
	So very sad, we should take a break, but very sad for this next person.
	This, although, boy, timing is everything.
	This 9-11, 10 times worse than 9-11, which is almost as bad as January 6th, could not have come at a worse time for this announcement.
	A new curveball in the race for president.
	I'm here to declare myself an independent candidate.
	Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
	leaving the Democratic Party to run as an independent.
	What are you drinking?
	It's the polar, just a plain polar seltzer.
	I've got a few more cans of this left.
	Because I opened one earlier you didn't mention.
	I didn't hear it.
	Oh!
	I'm drinking a Source Perrier Lime.
	From the can.
	Lime, ladies and gentlemen.
	Perrier.
	You know, if anyone can find the blue bottles of Perrier, which is lightly carbonated.
	It tastes just like Le Badoit, my favorite sparkling beverage.
	Oh, Le Badoit.
	Like boudoir?
	Like bidet?
	Badoit.
	Low bidet.
	Low bidet.
	I don't know.
	I don't want to drink low bidet.
	The Democrats are frightened that I'm going to spoil the election for President Biden.
	And the Republicans are frightened that I'm going to spoil it for President Trump.
	The truth is, they're both right.
	Back in April, he launched a long shot bid for the Democratic nomination.
	But his position on vaccines and abortion were out of the party's mainstream.
	His own siblings denouncing his run as an independent, saying, Bobby might share the same name as our father, but he does not share the same values, vision, or judgment.
	We denounce his candidacy and believe it to be perilous for our country.
	We denounce him!
	Denounce your own, one of your own members of your own family.
	It's disgusting.
	It's pretty bad.
	But this is not good for, I mean... No, the timing sucks.
	The timing is horrible, but this is also... He should have done this like a week ago or maybe a month from now.
	It wouldn't have mattered.
	And by the way, I was going to say that report indicates that he was thwarted.
	They did without going into any details.
	There hasn't even been a democratic convention yet.
	There hasn't been any primaries.
	Well, he can't get in.
	He can't even get in the primaries.
	They locked him out is what she should have said.
	That's what she should have said.
	Yes, they locked him out.
	I mean, there's still a lot of time, a lot of things can happen, but I see no reason why the military-industrial complex, the financial, which is the same as the financial complex, maybe this is why Steve Scalise, I guess possibly, can become the new Speaker of the House.
	That was my assertion two years ago.
	It was your assertion.
	But, you know, he's got cancer.
	We can't have that guy with cancer.
	Well, get rid of Raskin then, too.
	Yeah.
	Come on.
	What kind of... That's one of the most demoralizing things you can say.
	Hey, man.
	I'm sorry.
	You can't run because you got cancer.
	I mean, people survive.
	People live with.
	And Marjorie Taylor Greene.
	Notice my voice going up when I say her name.
	Marjorie Taylor Greene.
	I know, but you do that all the time.
	Marjorie Taylor Greene.
	Why is she doing that?
	Like, oh no!
	Oh no, he's got cancer.
	Oh no, we can't have him!
	He might die before he can sign more money for Ukraine and Israel!
	Well, they have to put him in.
	My thesis is because he's all pro giving more money to Ukraine.
	So Marjorie, the Democrats should put him in.
	I mean, it just takes like 50 of them to say, yeah, and that the whole thing goes through.
	How much do you think...
	I think the 24 billion for Ukraine, I mean the public money, right?
	This is just the stuff that they'll tell us.
	I think that'll now have to move to 50.
	And I think Israel, I think we go to 400 billion.
	Just for starters.
	Nah, that's too much.
	They don't need that much money down there.
	For Iran!
	Well, no.
	Iran's different.
	If that happens, then we have to start shoveling money down there.
	Yeah, that's what it's for.
	That'd be great.
	And who do we actually need to take out?
	What do we need to do in Iran to fix it?
	All you need is two low-flying jets.
	Low-flying jets and bombs.
	There's a neighborhood where all the mullahs live.
	It's a known fact.
	They live in these mansions in some kind of walled garden neighborhood.
	And you just go in there and bomb all their houses and then fly back and say, I don't know what happened.
	And that's what you did.
	You just got us fired.
	You just got us fired as the Curry Dvorak Consulting Group.
	This is not the right answer.
	How do we get some real money out of it?
	Some real money.
	Oh yeah, there's not real money.
	Well, yeah, good question.
	Good point.
	I mean, it's not cheap to send an aircraft carrier down there.
	No, that's expensive.
	It's very expensive.
	And they're going to send another group.
	I don't have the clip, but somebody else came on one of the shows, another ex-Navy guy.
	Of course.
	And he says, yeah, and they got another group going in and the reporter jumped on him and go, what?
	This is news.
	Tell me more.
	And the guy, blah, blah, blah, blah.
	That's good.
	That's good.
	It was pretty funny.
	So the other scandal, what was the other scandal?
	Wiped from the front page.
	So many people benefit from this.
	Never let a crisis go to waste.
	Menendez.
	Menendez.
	We don't even talk about him anymore, Bob Menendez, and his corruption scandal.
	No, he's a total criminal.
	Well, do you remember what I said?
	No, I do not.
	I said his wife is the problem.
	Yes, you did say that.
	I remember that.
	This is the second time he's been indicted in the last eight years and reports suggest that Menendez's wife played a major role in his murky deals.
	Menendez met his Armenian-American wife, Nadine Arslanian, at a restaurant in 2018 and got married in 2020.
	Prosecutors claim she played a key role in collecting hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of bribes from three New Jersey businessmen seeking help from the powerful lawmaker.
	Her role was so vital that she was the one who introduced Menendez to parties connected to the Egyptian government, according to the indictment document.
	The filing also states that Nadine was unemployed before they met, but the following year, she incorporated a new consulting company, Strategic International Business Consultants, LLC.
	After their marriage in 2020, she came into possession of a large amount of gold.
	She later sold some of the bars for between $200,000 to $400,000, according to the senator's financial disclosure reports.
	Now here's a bit of context.
	Menendez was the chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee until the investigation became public.
	That post gave him a lot of influence in U.S.
	foreign policy.
	This is where Wael Hana comes in.
	Nadine and Hana were friends for years before her marriage to Menendez.
	According to the indictment, Hana helped arrange meetings and dinners between Menendez, Nadine and Egyptian military and intelligence officials.
	This was part of a covert initiative aimed at using the senator's influence to boost U.S.
	aid to Egypt.
	After one of these meetings in 2018, Menendez texted his wife, telling her to inform Hanna that he would sign off on a multi-million dollar weapons sale to Egypt.
	So Menendez should not be impeached for corruption, but for being an idiot.
	This woman snookered him in!
	You know, I don't know that this is really what this sounds to me like they're putting out a story that parallels the Biden story with his son, you know, it's his fault.
	And I think that's what puts in my mind.
	I have a clip.
	New bad stuff about Biden.
	Biden.
	Hey, screw the war on Israel.
	We've got the Biden and Menendez stuff for you right here, people.
	New records show that President Biden was involved in his son and brother's businesses as vice president.
	America First Legal published the records from the National Archives following a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit.
	National Archives records show that then-Vice President Biden's office exchanged over 19,000 emails with Hunter Biden's investment firm, Rosemont Seneca, over 4,000 emails with Hunter Biden himself, over 1,700 emails with his brother, James Biden, and over 3,700 emails with James Biden's Lionhole Group.
	Biden has previously claimed he was not involved in his son and brother's business dealings.
	America First Legal said on X Today, quote, there was extensive commingling between them.
	The House Oversight Committee, which has been investigating the Biden's family business dealings, also commented, saying Biden's statement, quote, doesn't match his track record.
	Oh, yes.
	You know, I don't think anyone can say that they don't feel much better after just listening to this to this hour and 15 minutes of the No Agenda Show.
	I mean, you know, I hope so.
	You're not all spun up.
	You're not all worried about tomorrow, tomorrow.
	Oh, it's going to be attacks everywhere in America tomorrow.
	Yeah, we're going to be attacked any minute.
	These guys are going to come in with, you know, somehow they're going to swim over.
	No, they're coming across the border.
	They're coming right up through.
	I don't know how they get to Mexico without swimming, but okay.
	They're coming right up through Fredericksburg.
	Stop them when you see them.
	Yeah, well you mentioned that you were talking about somebody wanted to send us some clips from somebody.
	We won't even mention his name.
	A guy who is a Well-respected, or not well-respected, but a well-followed guy that's on the YouTube and every place else.
	And I said, we don't play this guy's clips.
	Charlie Kirk.
	Oh, that's who it was.
	Charlie Kirk.
	And you said, well, he just came into the area, gave a speech, and he got all the local women all Jacked up.
	We were supposed to go, but I don't know, somehow that didn't happen.
	And it was, I think it was to raise money for the Tea Party, which I guess still exists.
	Oh brother.
	And so I don't know, and I have nothing against Charlie Kirk personally.
	He's a very sharp guy.
	He's a very sharp guy.
	But everybody came back so riled up.
	He's, oh, oh, oh, oh.
	Yeah, I've heard some of his stuff.
	It's like he does it on purpose.
	He gets people, like you said, spun up.
	Yeah.
	And this is not good.
	We're like Xanax.
	Well, not that bad.
	Hey, man.
	Hey, baby.
	With that, I'd like to thank you for your courage.
	In the morning, to you, the man who put the C's in the Christ cock, ladies and gentlemen, say hello to my friend on the other end, the one and only Mr. John C. DeMora!
	Yeah, well, in the morning to you, Mr. M. C. DeMora, ship's seat, boots on the ground, feeding the air, subs in the water, and all the dames and knights out there.
	In the morning, to the trolls in the troll room, let me count you, put up your hands, work around.
	2074.
	Write that down.
	I have a notebook.
	2074?
	Yeah, 2074 Trolls.
	I'm going to write that down.
	That's up.
	I have a notebook.
	2074?
	Yeah, 2074 trolls.
	That's up.
	And we're almost two hours in.
	Well, you know what it is.
	This is what happens.
	People are like, man, I'm all spun up.
	Maybe the boys will spin me down.
	Slow you down, eh?
	Slow you down.
	I mean, there's nothing like John saying that he prefers the smart gay guys.
	I mean, come on.
	That's comedy, people.
	That's the kind of comedy The No Agenda Show delivers to you.
	Everybody prefers the smart gay guys.
	Exactly.
	Now, don't rely on the platforms.

	And there's more coming, I promise you.
	You can also follow us at noagendasocial.com.
	Oh man.
	People are mad at me.
	I'm afraid to even mention anybody.
	What did you do?
	On the last show I said this guy, I'm not even going to mention his name because they're going to get angry.
	You didn't mention it.
	Progressive Night Slut.
	And I said, you know, he posted this screenshot, and I said, hey man, how about a link?
	This is not helpful.
	And then, oh!
	Yeah, you said, that which is common, you do that constantly.
	Oh!
	And he's like, well this is also the guy that claims that we never talk about Julian Assange, and there's reasons.
	Hmm.
	I find it interesting you don't talk about Julian Assange.
	Hmm.
	Yeah, hmm.
	You know, it's one of these guys.
	Yeah.
	And then he's, I will not stop posting until you apologize.
	I don't know what the heck he was talking about.
	And, I didn't realize that we were here to work for you, said the man with a free account.
	We don't even run the thing.
	But, you know, it's like, eh.
	Signal to noise, people.
	You know, even this, even Mastodon is bumming me out.
	Really is.
	It's bumming you out.
	It's bumming me out.
	Yeah, I haven't heard that term for a while.
	Oh wow.
	Oh wow.
	Yep, yep.
	And then it was like, he's a great guy!
	Like, oh, okay.
	Who's a great guy?
	This guy.
	Oh, Assange?
	Partisan night slut.
	Who says he's a great guy?
	Everybody.
	Oh, you're wrong.
	He's a great guy.
	I didn't say he wasn't a great guy.
	I said he wasted my time with his screenshot.
	How does anybody know whether he's a great guy or not?
	Nobody intermingles on that thing.
	Because he's on boarded so many people.
	He's a great guy.
	Oh, he's on board.
	Oh, okay.
	Wow.
	And I can't, I can't.
	Oh, I was going to bring my sister in, but I can't now because you said something about me.
	So I can't ever let her hear that because she would be so disappointed.
	No agendas, no good with you.
	Well get him, kick him off, mess with him if he won't help us out.
	No!
	No!
	I'm kicking myself off.
	It's annoying.
	I just want to follow some blogs.
	Well, there's no such thing anymore.
	Yes, there is.
	I'm bringing it back, baby.
	Books, movies, documentaries.
	It's all gonna be RSS and I'm gonna, I'm gonna, the army, the army will create it, you watch.
	We start with podcasts.
	No one is taking down the podcasts.
	No one is taking down the podcasts.
	They tried.
	They couldn't.
	They tried to capture it.
	Couldn't.
	You can make it Adam's RSS.
	No.
	Yeah, and then it could be an arse.
	Okay.
	You can follow Adam at knowagenthesocial.com.
	I won't post.
	You can follow John C. Dvorak at knowagenthesocial.com.
	Post something to him and he'll say something grumpy back.
	Everyone knows it.
	Everyone knows it.
	We're no good.
	It's rare.
	Rare that you say something grumpy?
	Yeah.
	Where's the evidence?
	Stuff like that.
	All right.
	That's just the voice I hear in my head.
	Value for value is the reason why you have not heard any advertisements, you've not heard anything about GOLD!
	Or... Buy gold!
	Buy gold!
	And this is the reason, what's happening now, is the reason you want to secure your future.
	You want to buy some gold.
	I have gold bars.
	John, have you bought any gold recently?
	Did you get in on the latest spot price?
	I buy a bar a month.
	A bar a month?
	Wow.
	That DHM plug must be doing pretty well for you.
	A bar a month.
	No, the only advertisements are the products we like.
	Or if someone slips something in on a donation, we're fine with that.
	We'll mention your company name.
	I'm sure the door is being burst down with new clients everywhere, Linda Lou Patkin.
	Yeah.
	And so all we ask for is that you return some value, time, talent, or treasure.
	It saves us enormous resources and really makes No Agenda Show and No Agenda Nation what it is by the work that everyone else does for each other, like the meetups.
	Oh man, the new bingit.io, Sir Deenonymous, the upgrade is going to be phenomenal.
	This bingit.io, can I just give you an example of how cool, since we're in the donation segment, how cool bingit.io is, okay?
	Hold on a second.
	Yeah.
	So I was looking for something about a news story, and this goes back to September 14th, so we're almost one month ago.
	And it only took me, I want to say, 37 seconds to get exactly what I wanted.
	And that includes the editing of the harp at the beginning and the end.
	Listen to this report from show 1590.
	I have a boots on the ground report that is troubling from Massachusetts.
	In the morning, boys.
	Quick update from the horrible state of TAC-sachusetts.
	My cousin is set to get married over Columbus Day weekend.
	The groom's family is from out of town and they rented two floors of a hotel so they could all be together for the weekend.
	Governor Healey just seized the hotel to house migrants.
	So they have lost their reservations.
	There's nowhere else to stay.
	On top of it, all the hotels that are housing migrants are having fires, assaults, etc.
	It's a nightmare.
	Right, so that is one month ago.
	One month ago on your No Agenda Show, and what pops up today?
	Early this year, travel agent Mark Mansback booked 400 rooms for clients to stay near Foxborough for the big Army-Navy game.
	Most of his clients are veterans and plan to stay at hotels like Comfort Inn and Best Western.
	Only recently being told, up to 70 of those rooms were cancelled to make room for migrants now staying there.
	It was a done deal.
	I mean, they'd already started taking in migrants.
	I was very concerned and troubled to hear that any veteran may have had their rooms cancelled.
	Governor Maura Healey has directed her Secretary of Veteran Affairs to help those veterans.
	But for many, the damage is already done.
	As I understand it, those were decisions made by The hotel management confirms they are providing shelter and support to refugees, saying we consider it a privilege to offer a safe haven to those who have been forced to flee their homes due to challenging circumstances.
	We know that's code for, man, the government gave us a lot more money than those stupid veterans.
	A lot more money than you vets are going to give us.
	Stupid veterans, that's no good.
	We don't care about them.
	We get twice as much money for housing a migrant, we get it straight from the government, checks, cash.
	And the governor's like, oh, oh no, what?
	I can't believe that.
	That's crazy.
	I had no idea this was happening.
	So that's just one of the many beautiful things that we receive as gifts and value from our producers all around the world, all around NOAA Gender Nation.
	We also have artists.
	And the artists, ever since we started ragging on their AI, have been doing a lot better.
	The artwork for episode 1597 was, I mean, we had some choices to make, but this was so perfect because it was the Fibonacci episode.
	Then our last, probably the last one.
	Well, considering it'll be another thousand episodes before we get to one, yeah, I think that's pretty safe.
	I don't think we're going to do 2,500 episodes.
	Faux Diddly, also known as Sir Shug, did just a wonderful piece of Fibonacci art with no agenda on top of it.
	If you haven't seen it, then, I mean, you missed out.
	Because, man, this is good.
	Yes, it was It wasn't.
	We looked and looked and looked and I mean we both kind of liked the War Calendar.
	We liked it a lot.
	By Sir Shung.
	Yeah, it's dynamite.
	We figured we could use it anytime because it'll keep going.
	Yeah, we never do that by the way.
	We always talk a big game about it.
	I use it for the bat signal today.
	Oh, good.
	Yeah.
	Well, then that's something.
	Yeah.
	We talk a big game about that.
	I also liked Chemistry Strip Bloggers Air Force, the parachute.
	It was all AI, obviously.
	But the no agenda thing, we looked and looked at it and it's just like, it was, it's just a good looking piece.
	It actually probably wasn't a Fibonacci golden ratio because of the square size of the art.
	So it felt a little off?
	I don't know.
	I think it looks pretty legit to me, but whatever the case, it was dynamite and it just worked out as a pretty piece and it was a little different.
	It was great.
	What else did we look at?
	There wasn't really much.
	I mean, there's a lot of stuff that could be used.
	Biden kicking the dog, but the Biden wasn't good.
	Yeah, we didn't talk enough about Biden kicking the dog anyway.
	No.
	Who else was there?
	But Biden kicks dogs, okay.
	Well, good to know.
	Yes.
	No, it really wasn't that much.
	I mean, in hindsight, I think the lather-rinse-repeat by The Spook was kind of nice.
	Two different versions.
	But still, it just didn't compare to the Fibonacci.
	No, it wasn't artistic enough.
	Yeah.
	The calendar ripping off the Ukrainian flag, revealing the Israeli flag underneath it was just a great concept.
	It was the same guy!
	He was competing against himself!
	Yeah, you get that a lot when somebody's on a roll, they got some good ideas in their head and they do a couple art pieces or three sometimes and they're all from the same guy and they're the ones we look at.
	Yeah.
	And I've been looking at what's come in so far.
	We'll have to see.
	I don't know.
	Step it up, people.
	It looks like some more AI stuff has slipped in.
	Oh yeah, definitely.
	Yeah.
	Definitely, definitely.
	Thank you very much.
	To Faux Diddley, Faux Diddley, for the artwork for 1598?
	Oh man, no, 1597, I'm sorry.
	Man, we're also almost at 1600!
	Yeah.
	And the 16th anniversary is on the 26th, I believe?
	That's right, the next week we go to 1600, then we hit the anniversary show, and we're not doing a two-for-one.
	Kind of thing because that was for 15 and 10 it do was he's just not gonna keep doing that No, but I do have a special offer which I will roll.
	Oh Yes, special offer.
	I've been working on how to do it Workout it'll be a start out It'll be revealed in the next newsletter because it's gonna start and it's gonna go it's only gonna be a three-week There's a special promotion Yes, the special promotion is only a three-week deal.
	It ends.
	It's not going to be going on forever.
	Okay.
	Because it takes work.
	And it takes Jay doing a lot of work, extra work.
	I was going to say, really, you're going to do some work?
	Doubtful, doubtful.
	No, Jay's going to be doing extra work.
	And it'll be, I'll roll it out, it'll roll out this Sunday.
	Oh man, I'm excited.
	And then it'll be continued right through the 1600 and the Anniversary Show until the end of the month and probably one extra week.
	But we have to use a promo code.
	Yeah, and then you get a mattress in a box.
	Then, of course, we have the producers.
	Really only two executives and a handful of associate executives for today.
	This is all the way value for value works.
	Whatever you get out of the show, send it back to us.
	It doesn't matter if it's $1, if it's $1,000.
	I mean, obviously it matters to us, but the whole point is you value it and what is valuable to you.
	We can't look into your finances.
	All we ask is that you send something back, time, talent, treasure, and about 3% does.
	Those are the people who are going to get saved, by the way.
	No one else is going to get saved with my RSS extravaganza.
	I agree.
	We kick it off with our top executive producer Dame Chell, who's in Millington, Tennessee.
	Shelley, I think is produced.
	Shelley?
	I'm sorry.
	I probably met her.
	Dame Shelley, I'm thinking, in Tennessee.
	33333, hey fellas!
	Been seeing lots of 33s lately and realize it's been too long.
	Karma for all and a little yay, much love from Dame Shelley.
	You've got karma.
	Thank you, Dame Shelley.
	Thank you, thank you.
	Rhett Vandenberg is Nexies in Provencal, Louisiana, however they pronounce it.
	33's kept showing up, he writes.
	Oh, yeah.
	Oh, look at that.
	That's the signal.
	It's time to donate.
	Yeah, karma and health karma for all.
	Please love you both and all you do to keep critical thinking and humor alive.
	Semper Fi.
	Rhett.
	You've got... karma.
	You're a semper fighter of you, Rhett.
	And then we hit our first associate executive producer with a row of ducks, Benjamin Grisey from Overland Park, Kansas, 222.22, and he says, Zippy rules.
	Thank you!
	Erica Levenberg in Los Angeles, California.
	And he is in for $201 and he says, I do believe...
	100% that you are the best podcast in the universe.
	I'd like to request jobs, karma, health, karma, and relationship karma.
	Shout out to my brother, Sir Turkey, who I hope to follow as Knight of the Roundtable.
	Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs.
	Let's vote for jobs.
	You've got karma.
	And here's your health karma.
	You've got karma.
	We just...
	Let's tag it all in.
	Oh, John, you've got to do this one.
	Yeah, Linda Lou Patkins up.
	She's in Lakewood, Colorado.
	Jobs karma for a resume that gets results.
	Go to ImageMakersInc.com for all your executive resume and job search needs.
	That's ImageMakersInc with a K dot com.
	Or just find Linda Lou Patkin under the show producers list.
	This is a showdown between the show and Linda Lou Patkin, who keeps donating $200 a show to see how long she can hold out.
	It's like a staring contest.
	Shouldn't she be a dame?
	Oh, she's a dame.
	Maybe even a Viscountess?
	She doesn't want to interrupt the flow.
	At the end when she gives up, which will be any minute, she'll have the totals and we'll give her what she needs.
	She'll be queen.
	Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs.
	Let's vote for jobs!
	Sean McCrossin is in Tayga Cay, South Carolina.
	$200.
	He says, appreciate what you guys do.
	Well, thank you.
	Thank you very much.
	You can get the next one because you have the notes open.
	I don't actually, but it won't take me long to open up.
	Sorry.
	That's okay.
	This is from Surfer.
	Surfer.
	And this is a switcheroo.
	He sends in a note which you will read.
	$200 in the morning.
	ITM John Adams, switcheroo.
	Please credit this associate executive producership to...
	His Excellency, Mr. Dana Brunetti, Governor of El Dorado!
	That's his honorifics.
	That's very suspicious.
	These donations will continue until John gets a bit part!
	Yak karma for all!
	Producers, please, love is lit!
	Surfer, Black Baron of the I-4 Corridor!
	Alright!
	You've got... karma.
	By the way, I fully expect Brunetti to come through one day.
	He's out of the business.
	No, he's not.
	He's not.
	Hey!
	I think you're bringing me back in.
	I just like to be killed in something.
	Just like Bruce's gruesome death.
	Yeah, I think a lot of people feel that way.
	Go ahead, you get to read this long one.
	Oh, actually, that's it!
	Those are the executive and associate executive producers for episode 1598.
	Thank you all so very much.
	We highly appreciate what you do for us.
	These credits are real.
	Oh, actually, stop, stop.
	This next one is $159 in Australian dollars, which bumps him up.
	Well, read it.
	Yeah, this is a Dean from Melbourne, Victoria, Australia at $159.70 or $200 something in American dollars.
	This is Dollarettes, which we made a deal, which is kind of an agreement with these two countries.
	It's a bad deal in hindsight.
	A bad deal for us.
	First of all, you need to de-douche it.
	You've been de-douched.
	And his 159.70 is also the Golan, is the Fibonacci number.
	He's a numbers guy.
	I was pleasantly stirred by the call for the Golden Mean Show.
	Unfortunately, my donation might have arrived in the cutoff time, after the cutoff time.
	I was at a loss when I missed the donor segment and it behooves both John and you, given the rare nature of the episode, indeed, that it would be possible for a Golden Mean credit award in post.
	I would definitely make my day.
	Okay, you got it.
	You got it, man.
	My initial note was to highlight I got, I hit in the mouth off a sweet treat in early 2018 from Uncle Hotep, co-host of the Hotep Ben Told You, with Hotep Jesus when his followers, but this is the only Hotep donation ever, and as far as anyone listening to the show, any, you gotta, somebody wants to de-douche out.
	You've been de-douched.
	Big shout out to the HOTEP community and all the No Agenda Producers.
	Thank you both for the invaluable insights and deconstructions.
	They want Karma and a Rubblizer 33.
	Thank you for your service.
	Oh, that's our pleasure.
	India, Tango, Mike.
	Standby.
	33, 33, 33.
	Rubblizer out.
	You've got Karma.
	And that definitely concludes our Executive and Associate Executive Producers.
	Credits are real.
	You can use them anywhere.
	Credits are recognized.
	Be like Dana Brunetti and put it on imdb.com.
	Then you can say, hey, look at my credits.
	Look at this guy.
	You heard this guy.
	House of Cards.
	You heard this guy.
	Fifty Shades of Grey.
	Gran Turismo.
	Do it, people.
	It's good for your resume, it's good for conversation, and you might even pick up another listener along the way.
	Thank you again for supporting the No Agenda Show.
	If you'd like to become a producer, here's where you go.
	Or noagendashow.net.
	John's going to take us through to the 50s, won't take very long, and then I have some stuff for you.
	Bruce Schwalm starts us off from Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, $133.88.
	Popal.
	Popal in Kearsley, Australia.
	1-2-8-6-3.
	And this is a switcheroo for his lovely wife Liz's birthday.
	It needs a de-douching.
	You've been de-douched.
	Yeah, Australians can get a biscuit for their birthday if you can hit that button.
	Sorry.
	That should be a button, actually.
	Hold on!
	You asked for it.
	They always give me a biscuit on my birthday.
	Got it.
	And it's Pul-Pul.
	Pul-Pul is how you pronounce it.
	Ah, speak of the devil, there's Dana Brunetti from Golden Cloud Ranch in California.
	That's his ranch.
	I will read some of this because of the nature of possibly getting a bit part.
	Monday is Estella's 11th birthday.
	She's on the list.
	The only show episode she ever wants to hear while I'm driving her to school is the episode last year where she got a birthday shout out.
	Yeah.
	Mention her every show and I can listen with her in the car.
	Also, there's a good Fibonacci reference in my movie, 21, about the MIT card counters.
	He comes in with a 112.35.
	So I discern two things from this.
	The 112, instead of becoming an executive producer, he comes in at just a low level.
	He's running out of money, and he talks about one of his old movies.
	He's going back into the business of being a producer.
	Oh, yeah.
	Oh, yeah.
	It's going to be 500 shays of gray.
	And you got a bit part!
	Yeah, I don't know about that.
	Be the guy handing out the whips in the office.
	Andrew Kelly in Los Angeles, California, $100.33.
	We give you some grad school admissions karma at the end.
	Anonymity and leaned.
	Netherlands.
	Linde.
	Sir Ty, joker that he is in Queen Creek, Arizona.
	8888.
	A lot of 8's.
	Happy 10x10 day.
	1010 day, which was just the other day.
	It was Tuesday.
	It was last week's as well.
	Yeah, it was two weeks in a row.
	He says the ROC is the best China.
	We'll get a note from the Chinese embassy because of that.
	Kevin McLaughlin, the Duke of Luna.
	Conquered North Carolina, 8008.
	Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
	Save the jugs.
	I don't know, it's getting to the end of this run, I'm sure of it.
	Save the jugs!
	David Jarman in North Turamura, New South Wales.
	$77.
	This is 125.56 in Dollaroo's.
	This is $125.56 in dollar ruse.
	Kevin McLaughlin's back with 6006.
	Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
	Save the sugar plums.
	Okay.
	Bye.
	Bye.
	Sir Don in Chandler, Arizona, 6006.
	Dave Gaynor in Melrose, Florida, 6006.
	Small boobs in regards to recent news from the Curry House.
	Something we don't know about on this show.
	No, you got to listen to Curry and the Keeper if you want to know about that.
	Les Tarkowski in Kingman, Arizona, 57.
	Oliver Reich.
	Well, I should have called him by his current name, but I won't.
	And I just won't say where he's from.
	He goes with an anonymous name now.
	5150.
	Thank you.
	Uh, Christine Hines in Manchester, New Hampshire, 5123, Bad Idea Supply.
	Bad Idea Supply!
	Fifty-fifty.
	And now we got the $50 donors, what few there are.
	There's actually more of these than anything else, as a matter of fact.
	Nadia Borg in San Marcos, California.
	Margarita Endenhood in Orangevale, California.
	Michelle Petty in Grand Forks, North Dakota.
	Tim Del Vecchio in Blandon, Pennsylvania.
	John Spade in Edmond, Oklahoma.

	Gary Mao in Woodland Hills, California.
	Stephen Ng in Box Elder, South Dakota.
	Kimberly Day in Holly Springs, North Carolina.
	Aaron Joyce in York, Pennsylvania.
	William Dolgay in Bristolville, Ohio.
	Kerry Jackson in Watertown, Tennessee.
	And last on the list from Miami Beach, we have Jason Deluzio.
	I want to thank all these people for making Show 1598, two away, a reality.
	And thank you everyone who came in under 50 for real reasons of anonymity.
	That's the best way to stay anonymous.
	$49.99, people do that a lot.
	Also, thank you for being on those sustaining donations.
	They come back monthly.
	You can make your own.
	We've already got a cool number, 33s, 11s, 12s, even 3s if you want.
	All of it's there.
	And as always, we thank our executive and associate executive producers.
	Thank you for being here, producing episode 1,598.
	Our formula is this.
	We go out, we hit people in the mouth.
	And we kick it off with the governor of El Dorado, Dana Burnetti, wishing Estella a happy birthday to you.
	She turned 11 on October 9th.
	Happy birthday, Estella, in the car!
	From Uncle Adam and Uncle John.
	Sir Bob, Protector of Western Foco, wishes his sister Pam and son Andrew a happy birthday.
	Both are born on the 11th, so...
	That was all yesterday.
	Tim DeVecchio celebrates today, and David Popel wishes his wife Liz a very happy birthday, as we say happy birthday from everybody here at the best podcast in the universe!
	Now before, we have one podium person today for a daming.
	This is the dame note from Cara Parravel.
	And on last Thursday's episode, my smoking hot husband, Walker Phillips, made a generous switcheroo donation to make me a dame, or at least dame adjacent for my birthday.
	That's right, and we waited for you.
	At the round table, I would like a bottle of 2017 Costa Brown Cerise Pinot Noir and a vegan gluten-free pizza with mushrooms, olives, and onions.
	Well.
	I don't know, man.
	How about this wine?
	What's that, the 2017 Costa Brown Cerise Pinot Noir?
	Is that any good?
	Yeah, I've never had it.
	My dame name shall be Dame Windchimes, Partridge of the Partridge Family Temple.
	Oh, man.
	They must be fun to hang out with.
	Thanks so much for everything, and we will bring you right... In fact, let's get our blades out.
	Here we go.
	I got it right here, ready to go.
	Beautiful.
	All right, here we go!
	Kara Parabell, up on the podium you go!
	Thanks to your hubby.
	He loves you very, very much.

	Enjoy that!

	That's what you get from the meetup.
	You hang out with people who you probably wouldn't expect to hang out with, but it turns out we're all members of Gitmo Nation and have like a companion to the show.
	You'll have great conversations.
	It's always fun.
	There's always a little bit of alcohol involved and you get connection, which is ultimate protection.
	Knowagendameetups.com.
	If you can't find one near you, start one yourself.
	We'll tell everybody all about it.
	Sometimes you want to go hang out with all the nights and days.
	You want to be where you want me.
	Triggered on hell's flame.
	You want to be where everybody.
	I'm back.
	I'm back.
	to say it's like a party alright okay I'm back I'm back I have two two two ISOs two I think one of them's the winner.
	You want to do yours first?
	No, I did mine first last time.
	You love it.
	You want it for Christmas.
	There's one.
	Hold on a second, I gotta boost this next one.
	This is the winner.
	Hold on.
	This is the winner.
	Let me just boost up the volume.
	Sometimes these aren't good.
	Okay, here we go.
	This is the winner.
	There is just not enough of Taylor Swift.
	Come on.
	Come on, that's the winner right there.
	I like it, I like it.
	I may have a beater when it beats it.
	Now I have a couple here that I thought I could fit, only I actually have one.
	And the other ones I have are just an example of using the Adobe thing and having it come out cleaner, but changing some word.
	Now listen to, I've got two of them, Iso Big Win and then Iso Big Win Fixed.
	Play Iso Big Win and this is the clip I wanted to fix.
	So, a big win.
	Okay.
	So, a big win.
	Yeah.
	So, a big win, as we said.
	It sounded like big wig almost.
	It was so muffled.
	Well, but that's the problem.
	Adobe couldn't understand it either, but it was big win.
	Okay, so here's the Adobe product fixed.
	Here we go.
	So, a big win.
	A big win.
	A big what?
	A big wing.
	Thanks, Adobe.
	So Adobe changed win to wing.
	Wing, yeah.
	Thanks for nothing.
	That's AI for you.
	So now let's go to my other one, which is fact check true.
	Fact check true.
	Nah, nah, nah, nah.
	This beats it.
	I mean, this... There is just not enough of Taylor Swift.
	Come on, that's just, that's, that, that wins.
	So I did a little digging in this Taylor Swift story.
	Why?
	Because this seems to me to be a play by one public relations firm to get NFL as one of their clients because they have a bunch of players and Taylor Swift for some unknown reason is participating.
	I'll probably write this up in the newsletter.
	She is managed publicity wise by a sports management company that manages athletes.
	Yeah.
	And she's there among the athletes, and it makes nothing but sense that they set her up as a phony boyfriend story, which is Hollywood does all the time.
	Yeah, of course.
	But let's do it for the NFL.
	Get their numbers up.
	She didn't show up in the last game, and we'll never hear from her again in the football era.
	And she never was boyfriend, girlfriend.
	It's bullcrap.
	But people lapped it up.
	Do you have a clip to go along with this?
	No, you just brought it because you brought that clip and I had to say something.
	Just all your assertions.
	All right, so I have some offbeat clips.
	Before we do offbeat, let's end with that so I can just depress everybody.
	Well, they're not offbeat in that way.
	They're news clips that include this one, which is Holland climate change.
	Oh, here we go.
	In the Netherlands.
	Climate activists are celebrating, after Lawmakers Tuesday, approved a motion requiring the Dutch cabinet to come up with a plan to phase out fossil fuel subsidies.
	This comes after a sustained campaign by activists, including a nearly month-long blockade of a major highway.
	This is Lucas Vinips of Extinction Rebellion Netherlands.
	After a month-long of daily protests and more than 9,000 arrests, the Dutch Parliament asked the cabinet to come up with scenarios for a phase-out of fossil fuel subsidies.
	During this campaign, we achieved a transformation, I think, of Dutch society, with three-quarters of the people now wanting a phase-out of fossil fuel subsidies.
	And even a third of the people want an immediate stop on fossil fuel subsidies, and that is the Extinction Rebellion demand.
	So, a big win.
	Yes, let me tell you this is bullcrap from this Dutch guy and I tell you why, okay?
	You ready for this?
	This cabinet fell a while ago.
	So they cannot make any laws or anything until there's a new cabinet after elections in November.
	So he is full of what we call cow crap in Holland.
	Well, the other thing about that clip is that they want to end fossil fuel subsidies.
	What is that?
	It's not about ending fossil fuel.
	It doesn't matter.
	We got those idiots off of the A-12.
	It was annoying.
	We couldn't shoot them with water cannons because they were crying all the time about it.
	So we just say, OK, you get something from us.
	Go away, you childrens.
	That was actually pretty good.
	I think I nailed that guy's accent.
	You nailed it.
	You will get nasty notes from some of your Dutch compatriots.
	No!
	No, they agree.
	They think it's all annoying.
	Let's do something depressing for a moment and then we'll do something funny.
	You recall the, well actually you had the clips of the DNA gene jock from the South Carolina, what was it, it was a special hearing?
	About COVID, about the vaccines, about DNA being in the... Oh yeah, DNA being in the vaccines and going into your system as, you know, putting it into your genetic material.
	Yes, none of this seems to be doing very well for a lot of people.
	And the same ad hoc committee on the Department of Health... Seems to be making a lot of people sick.
	Well, here is Dr. Karen DeVore.
	She's a dermatologist.
	Nice lady.
	Uh, two-parter.
	In the last two and a half years, since the vaccine has been widely promoted, and many patients have taken it out of fear and isolation, the patients who took the vaccine still get COVID.
	And now, I see patients, and I could not believe the attorney who spoke this morning said he had heard the same thing.
	Because in 30 years of practicing dermatology, I've never heard people describe their symptoms this way.
	I am itching from my bones out.
	I am on fire from the inside.
	I see the most unusual rashes, and they don't respond well to treatment, and they last for months or years.
	I see previously well-controlled autoimmune diseases, like psoriasis and eczema and lupus, now totally out of control.
	I see aggressive, severe shingles.
	It is more painful, it is lasting longer, and this is even in those who've had the shingles vaccine.
	I see rapidly growing skin cancers, including basal cells that are just supposed to be traditionally very slow growing.
	I see squamous cells, cutaneous squamous cells, that are metastasizing much more often than they ever did before.
	And melanomas have become so unusual and much harder to diagnose.
	They are much more advanced at presentation.
	And I have to biopsy more and more things.
	And it's all in vaccinated patients.
	So that's her professional in her profession and her field in the medical profession and here she's talking about just some other ancillary things she has noticed.
	And then beyond my field, patients that I've seen regularly for six to twelve months Every 6 to 12 months for 30 years, they're aging more rapidly.
	They've got unhealthy weight loss.
	Their balance is bad.
	They're falling.
	They're black and blue.
	They can't get on an exam table.
	And you see their medical updates since they were in.
	And they've had atrial fibrillation, pacemakers, heart attacks, strokes, blood clots, DVDs.
	Pulmonary embolism, Parkinsonism, ALS, tremors, nerve palsies, miscarriages, infertility.
	Did I mention aggressive new-onset cancers?
	Recurrent stage 4 cancers after 20 years of remission?
	I know four people in one small zip code in Spartanburg that have rare leukemias.
	Three or four of them are dead now.
	In over 30 years of medical practice, I've probably only known one or two people who had Lou Gehrig's or ALS disease.
	And they were distant and not really, you know, third or fourth contacts.
	I now know three people in my immediate range of contact.
	You know what's to blame?
	Putin.
	Putin!
	You're right, that was a depressing clip.
	Now I'm going to take you out of it.
	I still have another news clip before you take us out with something light.
	I want you to end with something light.
	I don't have something light, I have a what-what clip.
	Shouldn't that be the last clip?
	The what-what clip?
	Okay, it's actually a good last clip because you go, what?
	I go, what-what, yep, yep.
	Here is Dr. Osterholm.
	As you know, he has long- he has long COVID.
	He has long COVID.
	Yeah, the guy with the- got sick as- yeah, right.
	Sick as a dog.
	He was- he was the OG.
	We're all gonna die.
	We need to get vaccinated.
	Met him at Joe Rogan, first time I went on, 3 million people gonna die, OG.
	He has a podcast, and oh man, COVID is, it's all COVID.
	The researchers found that SARS-CoV-2 can infect and replicate in white blood cells, leading to an inflammatory response that is known to increase the risk of heart attacks and stroke.
	And this elevated risk can last up to a year after infection.
	In additional research that has been done, it has been demonstrated that individuals up to one year after their COVID case have an increased risk for cardiovascular events.
	Cardiovascular events?
	And specifically, that is at least seven times higher for COVID-related infections than for influenza.
	We have been observing an increase in heart attacks and stroke with COVID-19 infections throughout the pandemic, but until now there was no concrete biologic evidence linking COVID-19 to this increase.
	As the authors of the paper explain, their findings provide for the first time a direct mechanistic link between COVID-19 infection and the heart complications it provokes.
	Vascular problems.
	We knew this.
	We knew this a year- oh, more than a year ago.
	And we got it from these two women.
	Do you know anything about COVID dick shrinkage?
	Yeah!
	Okay, so... Remember that?
	It's proof!
	It's COVID!
	COVID Dick Shrinky.
	I think that was it.
	This shows off the rails at that mark.
	That's why I stopped it.
	Alright.
	What what?
	Give me some what what Dick Shrinky.
	That guy over, that guy over Holt, whatever the hell his name is.
	Osterholm.
	Yeah, I think you're right.
	Osterhoi, he's making himself sick at this point.
	Yeah, I think you're right.
	That's a very good point.
	You know how you can just get yourself, again, using the term spun up.
	Yeah.
	He's just doing it to himself, the poor guy.
	I feel sorry for him.
	Okay, this is the update on Niger.
	This is our African story right at the end of the show so people can complain to us about it.
	You can't tune out.
	Is it Niger or Niger?
	It's the end of the show and we've got the funny stuff coming up after this.
	Is it Niger or Niger?
	Niger.
	Okay.
	So this is the Niger clip and it's the update and it's interesting because of the very ending.
	The little ending at the end makes you go, what?
	Here we go.
	In Niger, the first set of French soldiers have started to withdraw from the country after orders by Niger's military junta following their July takeover.
	In the capital Niamey, residents welcomed the French soldiers departure.
	Today, this batch of French soldiers who have arrived and who will, God willing, shortly be taking to the road to return home, is only the culmination of a struggle that the people have engaged in.
	The people are on their feet to demand the departure of the French soldiers from Niger soil, because one thing is certain.
	Niger remains for the people of Niger.
	This comes as the U.S.
	formally designated the ouster of President Mohamed Bouzoum and military takeover as a coup, suspending aid to Niger.
	But U.S.
	officials say they do not plan to remove any of its 1,000 military personnel from Niger.
	What?
	What?
	That's what I said!
	What are we doing?
	So the French are ousted and we still have our troops there?
	And we don't plan to move anything.
	Yeah, screw you.
	We got our place in the worst.
	You know, we're a kick-ass country.
	It's unbelievable.
	You know, they say that the empire is in decline and sometimes it kind of feels like that.
	I see no evidence of this.
	Well, maybe for you in California, everything's all hunky-dory.
	I don't know.
	I'm not feeling so great.
	But okay.
	There's no... You know what?
	The real empire, the EU, they're in decline.
	They're up shit's creek.
	The EU has a real... Yeah, thanks to us.
	I know.
	That's the funny thing about it.
	Thanks to us.
	Was that it?
	Was that your end?
	That's the final one?
	That'll do it?
	Yeah, it's an Africa clip, so there you go.
	Good work.
	Well, I don't think we have anything else, but I think we've kind of covered it all.
	For today.
	As best we can.
	As best we can.
	Well, that's good news, because we're going to end everything with, uh... Oh, man.
	Some end of show mixes.
	We got, uh... These are beauties, by the way, for people out there.
	Don't hang up.
	I'm gonna do the Bomb Them Again mix.
	Let's throw that in there, since it was topical.
	Uh, we got Matty J, Miracle Wolf.
	It's a brand new one.
	Up next on NoAgendaStream.com, we have... Let me see.
	Uh, abs in a six-pack with Sir Seat Sitter and special guest Midnight Mike from OBDM.
	Oh, you do not want to miss that.
	It's all on noagenestream.com or that modern podcast app I know that you are using.
	For podcastapps.com.
	More deconstruction on Sunday, coming to you from the heart of the Texas Hill Country, here in FEMA Region No.
	6.
	In the morning, everybody, I am Adam Curry.
	And from northern Silicon Valley, where I think we've kind of got our summer, finally, I'm John C. Dvorak.
	We return on Sunday, right here.
	Please remember us at dvorak.org.
	Until then, adios mofoza, hooey, hooey, and such!
	I'm going to bomb the shit out of.
	I'm going to bomb the shit out of.
	I'm going to bomb the shit out of.
	I don't care.
	I don't care.
	We got to be secure.
	Bomb them.
	Bomb them.
	We need to kill them.
	Bomb them again.
	A population at that time had a lot of German people in it.
	30 to 50% of the population had relations back to Germany.
	So there had to be this very clever propaganda campaign.
	It's known today as babies on bayonets.
	That's horrifying.
	I could not help but think of my nephew.
	Scattered in the mud, the bodies of lifeless children suspected of being poisoned in a chemical attack allegedly orchestrated by their own government.
	We have all seen the reports of the terrible chemical weapons attack in Syria.
	They took the babies out of incubators and left the children to die on the cold floor.
	Kids in incubators and they were thrown out of the incubators so that Kuwait could be systematically dismantled.
	40 babies and young children.
	Babies being killed.
	They've been killed.
	Even beheaded.
	Babies and toddlers were found.
	Babies and young children with their heads cut off.
	Children with their heads beheaded.
	Decapitated.
	Babies found dead next to their cots.
	That has been confirmed.
	Civilized countries of this world to do everything within their power To remove this scourge from the face of our Earth.
	Emotions drive wars, not facts.
	It is so evil that it's beyond comprehension, beyond belief.
	They took the babies out in incubators.
	This is a bomb.
	This is a fuse.
	This bomb has to be filled.
	Hummus is the original snack food.
	Pay attention, please.
	It's a classic tale of an authoritarian and this little tale of extremism.
	And sadly, so many of those extremists are determined to return to a place where, you know, people could be in charge of their lives, feel empowered, people could be in charge of their lives, feel empowered, say what they want.
	And...
	So it is like a cult.
	In order to try to end our democracy, there needs to be a formal deprogramming of the cult members.
	Gun control and climate change and the economy and taxes.
	What is it you want?
	Make America great again.
	And I don't say that lightly.
	The best podcast in the universe!
