The silent majority is no longer silent.
This is The War Room with Owen Schroer.
Please stand by for further details.
We return you now to your regularly scheduled program.
harrison smith
Harrison Smith sitting in for Owen Schroer today.
Welcome to The War Room.
Infowars.com, band.video.
We have a lot to discuss today.
Of course, most of all, we will be talking about the continuing Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
Frankly, I'm surprised it's gone on this long.
I'm surprised there hasn't been any other major changes.
It's just been relentless bombings for the last several days.
We got all sorts of videos we could show you.
We've got all sorts of videos we're not going to show you.
I can't tell you the number of maimed and murdered children I've seen on my Twitter feed the last few days.
It's all horrific and psychologically damaging.
So we're not going to show you any of that insanity, but we will talk about some of the effect that it's having.
Although we spent the last couple days, especially yesterday on American Journal, talking about the information war that is surrounding this conflict.
We're going to talk a little bit today about some other aspects, some very pertinent aspects.
The use and failure, in many cases, of artificial intelligence in the lead up to the attack by Hamas.
We're also going to talk about the fact that Anthony Blinken is over there in Israel right now.
We'll give you the updates as to the number of dead that we have so far.
In case you haven't been paying attention, in case you're just now tuning in to what's going on in Israel and Palestine, The dominoes are all set up for total world war.
That's not an overstatement.
It's not fear-mongering.
It's just a process that will start rolling out if certain steps are taken by one side or the other.
So far, those steps have not been taken.
The red line was that Hezbollah, the militia group from Lebanon, said that if Israel enters Gaza with ground troops,
as they said they were going to do as soon as the attack happened, then Hezbollah would get involved.
Now, Gaza, and we'll get into whether or not, you know, how much Israel knew about what was going to happen, whether
they allowed this to happen totally, whether they were caught off guard.
But I think one thing that is certain is that they severely underestimated the capabilities of the people in Gaza, and
that's probably making them rethink their whole calculus when it comes to places like Hezbollah, which is – or
organizations like Hezbollah, which is significantly better armed, significantly more capable than anyone in Palestine,
let alone anybody in Gaza.
So they're probably extremely worried about Hezbollah opening up that second front to the north.
They haven't done that yet because Israel hasn't entered Gaza yet.
Guys, I don't have a clock here.
If I could get one, I don't want to go into the commercial breakbacks.
Now, this is interesting because Israel is really in a lose-lose situation here.
If they don't enter Gaza...
Like they've said that they're going to.
Like they have time and time again promised that they're going to do.
If they don't do that, it in a way is admitting that they're not the top dogs in the arena anymore.
That their actions in their own country is being limited by an outside force.
And that's a game changer.
That's a paradigm shift.
And so what's happening right now is not so much the fallout from what happened on Saturday...
That is a culmination of what has been going on for the last several years and a very large part of it is on the shoulders of Biden and his administration.
Who have allowed this kind of atmosphere to build.
The failure to maintain relations with Middle Eastern countries that we now want something from but have no leverage over.
The failure of America to maintain its military readiness.
To be able to provide some sort of diminishing effect on all of this.
I'm not saying that World War III, like, it's not happening.
All the dominoes are still standing there.
They're all still lined up.
From Hezbollah to America to Iran to Syria to Russia to Turkey.
It's all there. It just hasn't been flicked yet.
And I'm wondering how long it will maintain like this.
We'll cover more on the other side. I want him found.
unidentified
Not tomorrow, not after breakfast.
Now!
Yes, sir!
Well...
Well, what?
Man up and vanish like a fart in the wind!
Nothing left but...
Damn rocks on the windowsill.
And that cupcake on the wall.
What say there, Fuzzy Bridges?
This is conspiracy.
That's what this is.
One big damn conspiracy!
And everyone's in on it!
This is the best way to make the world stop.
Unveiling the truth behind the globalist curtain.
Welcome to the War Room.
harrison smith
Welcome back, folks. This is thewarroominfowars.com, band.video.
We will be opening up the lines for your calls today.
We'll be taking them. Got a lot of very interesting calls yesterday.
From both sides of this argument, and I gotta admit, part of me is already kind of sick of talking about this.
Kind of already sick of this whole thing.
It hit me. Last night, about 10 o'clock, laying in bed, scrolling through Twitter.
There's one post too many.
Just saw and just went, oh God, more Israel-Palestine stuff.
Because this has really sort of consumed my consciousness since it broke out on Saturday.
To the extent that it pushed everything else out.
Literally, two weeks ago, two Fridays ago, I made a skit with Klaus Schwab Jr.
I was editing it all last week.
And yesterday, I'm hanging out, looking at, you know, gathering news and stuff.
Chase is walking by and he's like, hey, when's that skit coming out?
And I was like, oh right, the skit!
I forgot I'd filmed a skit.
I'm supposed to put that out.
I'm supposed to finish editing that.
I'd totally forgotten I'd even filmed it.
I'd totally forgotten to put it out.
I mean, literally... Nothing else has occupied my thoughts since all this broke out.
Because this is a paradigm shift.
This is an inflection point.
We said it from the first broadcast after the attack against Israel.
What happens in the next few days will, one way or another, decide the future of the world, really.
And I am surprised that it hasn't expanded more.
And I would be very, very shocked if this is just another situation where Israel bombs Gaza for a few days and then it just goes back to the tit-for-tat.
I mean, it's really not possible at this point.
After all, Gaza and Hamas has hostages right now.
There is some minor talk about a ceasefire for, you know, to regain the hostages.
But it seems like we still, just for the last couple days, those of us paying attention, we're just like waiting with bated breath.
It's like where this goes.
Where the next shoe to drop is going to land.
We'll talk about how we got to this situation and point to some of the overall intelligence failures from Israel and whether they were even failures or not, but what it can tell us about the future of war and combat, government operations the world over for the future.
I said yesterday on my show, I think what we're seeing here is very much a preview of
just how conflicts will go under the new world order system.
After all, globalism is obviously the central goal for the rulers of the world that have
been pushing us towards it for the last several decades.
And their argument for this is that without nation states, you don't have war.
And we've always pointed out that you're not going to have an absence of war.
You're going to have continuous war.
Instead of nation states going to war with each other, it will be the system at war with
anybody outside of the system.
And in a way, it seems like what's happening in Gaza right now and in Israel right now
is a signal that the way that they want it to go is infeasible.
It doesn't actually work this way.
You can't actually subjugate people that refuse to be subjugated.
You can't actually contain humanity if they don't want to be contained.
So the whole New World Order system is sort of predicated on this idea that if you abuse humanity enough, it submits.
And if you psychologically terrorize humanity enough, then you can keep them in an open-air concentration camp.
You can deny them all the rights.
And yet, you know, continue to operate as if everything's normal.
It's kind of disproven with Gaza.
And it may be that there's something particular about Palestinian people that makes them the exact wrong population to try to carry this out.
After all, I can't imagine America maintaining a 75-year resistance, 75-year military resistance.
Rebellion against a significantly larger force.
But with Palestine, it's like what they're doing now is not going to end the threat.
If anything, it's only going to make it worse.
And a lot of this goes down to the fact that Israel started just about two years ago to massively rely on AI. And artificial intelligence is playing an outsized role in this conflict and played an outside role in what allowed this initial attack to be carried out.
We're also going to talk about the Samson option, which is a How do you even describe this?
There's a book called The Samson Option, Israel's Nuclear Arsenal in American Foreign Policy.
I believe it was written by...
Well, we'll get into it.
We'll get into it. If you already know what it is, then you know why I'm like...
Yeah, Seymour Hersh, that's right.
It's essentially a doomsday device.
It's like straight up Dr.
Strangelove level nuclear obliteration of all the world's capitals as a last-ditch effort to prevent the destruction of Israel.
And it may be the time to start looking at this because Israel, as I said before, is in a very, very, very tough spot.
Essentially, we are in many ways being...
Confronted with two options.
To let Israel be destroyed by its neighbors because one of the aspects of the last several years and the failure of the Biden administration to actually maintain American superiority in the military realm has been that the enemies of Israel have gotten significantly stronger.
Iran, Hezbollah, and, you know, part of this is because of the actions of America and Israel.
You know, when we try to overthrow Bashar al-Assad, when we launch moderate rebel groups, aka ISIS, across the whole region, what we did, in effect, was to draw all of those people significantly closer together.
I mean, Russia wouldn't be militarily entangled with Syria if it weren't for The Syrian rebellion that we helped to kick off.
But now they are. Same with Iran.
Same with Hezbollah. And in fact, one of the strange occurrences with the Syrian civil war was that Russia had weapons stockpiles that they were sending to Syria, but they didn't want Syria in charge of it.
So they had Hezbollah guard it.
And the agreement was that Hezbollah could sort of help themselves.
To some of the more advanced weaponry.
So we're dealing with non-state actors with super advanced weaponry.
We're dealing with Iran and Syria and Palestine.
And if they attack Israel, Israel would be...
I mean, they can't stand up against it.
They are outnumbered.
They're outgunned on every side.
Which would mean that if we don't want them to be destroyed, then America has to get involved, which means it's World War III. We're in a very tough spot.
Very tricky situation we're in here.
And we are still just sort of bouncing on the knife's edge of World War III. And of course, the American politicians are salivating over this.
We'll go to some clips of that on the other side.
Yes, folks, you know a war is coming because there's unity in Washington, D.C. All right, welcome back, folks.

some political news to talk about.
We can get into some stuff beyond the Israel-Palestine conflict, but that's going to be the main discussion here today.
And of course, we'll be taking your calls on this a little bit later.
We can go to some videos here that are just mind-boggling.
In fact, I just put one in the show folder, guys.
Another one of old Lindsey Graham holding blood feast.
If y'all know that meme.
It's crazy. It's completely insane.
These people and they're just starving for war.
They're thirst for war.
Can never be quenched.
Now, right now, Blinken is in Israel.
Story from CNN. Blinken pledges U.S. will never falter from supporting Israel as he likens Hamas' crimes to ISIS. U.S. Secretary of State Anthony Blinken visited Israel Thursday to pledge the United States will never falter from its support for Israel as he condemned Hamas' litany of brutality and inhumanity as evoking the worst of ISIS. There's a problem.
We got a problem here.
And what's happening right now may be an instance where it can lead to a wider conversation about the role of Israel in the American government.
It's something that, you know, anybody who pays attention to American politics knows that there is this partnership with Israel That leads politicians to say a lot of bizarre things.
Being American. Nancy Pelosi has gone on interviews and said, you know, even if the Capitol burns to the ground, even if there's no America standing, the last thing to fall will be our commitment to Israel.
Okay. That's a foreign country.
What are you talking about?
Right? Chuck Schumer giving speeches where he's saying, you know, God put me on earth to protect Israel.
You're a United States Senator.
This is weird. This is bizarre.
And of course, when Anthony Blinken goes to Israel, he essentially says, yes, I'm here as an American Secretary of State, but I'm also here as a Jew.
I'm also here essentially as an Israeli.
And I just, I wonder...
How long this can go on.
How useful this is for America to be so inextricably tied to a foreign country.
This seems to constantly be getting us in trouble.
What is the benefit here?
What is the America first argument to be made?
For this, according to Blinken, you know, never faltering support for Israel.
Maybe our support should falter a little bit.
Maybe now is the time that our support can be useful, maybe.
Maybe now would be the time, with our inextricable partnership to Israel, that we could step in, maybe try to pump the brakes on what's going on.
As we've said a million times, just because you've been the victim of a horrific terrorist attack does not give you a blank check to massacre millions of people.
Right now, the latest from Mid-East Eye says, Israel-Palestine wore life.
Half of the Palestinians killed have been women and children.
Those reports are dropping white phosphorus on the area.
You know, if you want, we can show video after video.
Dead babies, dead children.
I mean, it's horrific what's happening.
It was horrific what happened on Saturday.
But the horror continues day after day with these relentless bombing campaigns.
And America, as the powerful partner of Israel, could be stepping in in a humanitarian way and trying to resolve this crisis.
And not just writing a blank check to a foreign country.
So maybe now is the time to have that conversation and actually determine whether or not this is a healthy, helpful relationship that we have with a foreign nation in the Middle East.
And whether our support for this nation has already led to the degradation of America's reputation overseas.
and the death of its servicemen in our actions in the Middle East
that have done nothing for America at all, even a little bit,
really has simply cost us trillions of dollars, thousands of lives,
and destroyed our moral superiority over the rest of the globe.
And you have to wonder, is that all part of the plan as well?
Is this not sort of on purpose?
After all, we know that under a global government system, you don't have a nation like America, powerful, able to project power, able to...
Do all the things that America has done since the Second World War and our position as, or, you know, the end of the Cold War at the very least, position as, you know, uncontested hegemon over most of the world.
That can't go on forever.
So, I mean, is this all simply another part of the process of destroying America outright in order to eliminate the And again, the reason I bring this up is because you have a unity in Washington, D.C. that exists only in this context.
These are people that are sniping at each other and hating each other and, you know, will viciously contest every bill.
I mean, they don't get along on anything until it comes to war and, in particular, Israel.
And then it's total unity across the board and anybody who opposes it, you know, just gets savaged.
So we can go down to clip number 7 here.
This is Republican Derek Van Orden basically saying exactly this.
unidentified
Let's watch.
Flip 7.
Oh shoot.
harrison smith
Okay.
We'll have to re-download that clip.
We'll show you Lindsey Graham on the other side.
But I don't think I even need to provide evidence.
I mean, everybody knows this is how it goes, right?
Everybody knows that it's like, whether it's, you know, welfare and social security, open border, like whatever it is, it's constant conflict, constant arguing, it's constant unable to come to a unified conclusion.
But then when it's war, they're all on the same side.
Harrison Smith sitting in for Owen Schroer today.
I'll be back behind the desk at American Journal tomorrow morning.
We are continuing our little game of musical chairs here at InfoWars.
For very good reason, and you'll find out about that momentarily.
I'm sure. So, again, the topic of discussion is, of course, Israel, Gaza, the Palestinians.
The threat of World War III and surrounding all of this, this whole event is encased in the information war.
After all, the calculus being run right now, there's a couple things we need to realize.
Their previous plans To progress us towards a global government have not succeeded.
In fact, according to these people, according to the World Economic Forum, they have utterly and completely and embarrassingly failed.
That was a clip from about a week ago, maybe a few weeks ago, from the World Economic Forum meeting.
You know, the clip where she's talking about now we have to go after the water, right?
You know, kind of the way that Israel controls Gaza's water.
So when displeased, they cut it off, right?
I mean, this is sort of the tactic, right?
Dependence on any power structure means that power structure has capability to simply turn off your existence if they want.
And that's what the World Economic Forum wants worldwide.
But in that clip where she's talking about going, you know, water's very easy to understand.
It's easy to understand what happens when we cut off the water.
You know, she starts it out by essentially saying we have to start going after the water because everything else we've done has horrendously failed.
I can't remember the exact words that she uses, but it wasn't just like it didn't work.
It's like, wow, it actually backfired in a lot of ways.
I think kind of what they're doing now, it could backfire in a lot of ways.
But this is the...
Process that we're experiencing right now is the fact that all of their previous attempts, whether it's COVID, Black Lives Matter, like any of these things that come from on high and disrupt our normal life with some sort of crisis or some set of crises, some just massive conglomeration of crises, It's failed to convince people to submit to the world government.
So now they might take it to war.
Because one thing we know about the control freaks at the top, they don't take no for an answer.
They don't want what's best for us.
They don't have our best interests in mind.
So when we oppose them, Their reaction is not to back off, it's to double down.
And in many cases, use force where persuasion failed.
There's the video on Infowars, WEF brags staged water crisis will bring humanity to its knees.
And remember in that clip, I mean, she's saying we need to go after the water because nothing else we've done has worked.
Everything has failed horribly.
She sort of lets the cat out of the bag when she says, you know, COVID failed because we didn't get everybody in the world vaccinated.
As if that was the purpose of COVID. So World War III would serve their agenda to a T. Everything they want, they get with World War.
Depopulation, obviously.
Reorganization of the economy and the life of everybody.
Massive surveillance. Limitation to your speech.
You're not just a disinformation spreader.
You're a terrorist.
You're a treasonous, right?
You're actually harming us in the war when you speak against us.
So everything that they want, they get if they send us to war.
If they get us into a massive world war.
But they also have to contend with reality.
They can't just start a war and expect everybody to go along with it.
So if they don't have the upper hand in the information war, then their ability to actually start a real war is severely limited.
In other words, if they had total control of the paths of communication and the flow of information, they could send an aircraft carrier out to USS Liberty it, or just inside job, just destroy it, tell everybody it was Hezbollah.
Get everybody behind revenge for these 5,000 soldiers or Navy men that were killed.
But if instead nobody trusts them, if instead nobody believes what they say, and instead when called up for the draft, when told you have to go fight for America, the American people decide, I'd rather fight against you than with you.
If I'm going to be fighting, if I have to fight somebody, It's not going to be China.
It's not going to be Hezbollah.
It's not going to be Hamas.
It's not going to be Russia.
I'm going to fight the people that have actually thoroughly destroyed my life here in America.
That's a reality that they have to contend with.
So if they can't get the upper ground in the information war, then they can't do some false flag and get us into anything.
That's why it's so important now more than ever that we oppose the Flood of misinformation that has come out since last Saturday.
And it has been a flood. And whether it's the 40 decapitated babies that Biden talked about having seen and then having to reverse it.
And that's one of the things, that's how this can backfire.
I mean, COVID backfired on them, right?
Now the number of kids getting just regular vaccines has drastically diminished because people thought, well...
They lied so much about the COVID vaccine.
Why would I trust them about these other vaccines?
It backfired. Not only did it not work, it damaged some of their policies.
Well, a very similar thing could be happening here where it would be better if Biden just didn't say anything.
Then for him to come out, say, I've seen pictures of dead babies, only to later that day, not like a week later, not like years later, but that day having to come out and say, oh, actually, that was a little piece of war propaganda that we don't have evidence for.
Now, there's been pictures of babies released by Netanyahu, but this is another thing.
The rhetoric, the insanity out of Israel and the neocons here in America over the last couple days means I don't trust anything from them.
I mean, if you're willing to openly advocate for genocide, you don't think you're willing to maybe fake a baby, fake a dead baby?
You don't think you're willing to maybe actually kill one baby?
I mean, you're out there openly advocating for the death of millions, so...
Like, how are we supposed to trust you?
Like, okay, you showed a picture of a dead baby.
Am I supposed to believe that what you say actually happened to it?
I don't know. I mean, I think you have abolished your credibility at this point.
So I don't even trust that.
But you can see how this could backfire, where instead of just not mentioning it, To have the president say it, and probably, you know, probably the first time a lot of people had heard of that, only to have later that day it be revealed that he'd never actually seen that, makes a lot of people go, well, what the hell?
Why do you say it then? Well, how can I trust anything out of the president's mouth?
How can I, you know, so now, whatever next atrocity they're going to try to use as propaganda to get us into the war, everybody's going to be looking sideways at.
So there's a real sense of panic.
There's a real sense of desperation amongst the warmongers.
And we'll go to some of these videos here.
I guess we'll start with clip 7.
We have it now. This is Republican Derek Van Orden doing something that Republicans and Democrats only do when war or Israel or both is involved.
unidentified
Let's watch. I want to speak to my Republican and Democrat colleagues here in Washington, D.C. This is not a time to attack the Biden administration.
You know how adamantly I disagree with what they're doing, but as Republicans and Democrats, as legislators here in the United States of America, now is not the time to attack the Biden administration.
Now is the time to stand with the United States of America.
That means the executive branch in the military to make sure that Israel understands that they have our unwavering support.
So I'm calling on my Republican colleagues, our Democrat colleagues, let's get together.
Let's get the speakership done so that we can actually support Israel as they deserve it.
Yeah, speakership done.
That's a whole nother topic, especially after what happened yesterday.
harrison smith
So again, I mean, how about coming together to shore up the border?
How about coming together to stop the massive crime wave that's killing tens of thousands of people?
No? Welcome back, folks.
We'll talk a little bit more about where things are now.
Let's go to some of the comments from American politicians.
We just heard from Republican Derek Van Orden.
Wouldn't it just be nice to have a government that represented America?
Wouldn't that be something? This idea that's like, hey guys, I know I oppose Biden all the time.
I know we oppose the Democrats, but this is one thing we can come together on, our devotion to a foreign country.
It's like, what?
What is this? It's a great argument to be made for the border of America.
It's like, look, I know we got all these different issues, but we've had 4 million people come over our border in the last two years.
That's unsustainable.
It doesn't matter who you are. That's something we can come together and solve.
But no, no, there's always division on that.
We can never do anything to progress American interests.
When it comes to war, when it comes to Israel, everybody is in lockstep immediately, Democrats and Republicans holding hands, hugging each other, just completely on board with anything that brings death and destruction around the world.
That's all that's on the table now.
I mean, nobody's talking about peace.
There's like Ukraine, right?
Same type of thing. Nobody seems interested in the end to this conflict.
It's how to maximize this conflict.
How to maximize profit out of this conflict.
There's no winning this conflict for us or Israel.
There is a question of moderating the negative outcome.
Now, the Friday 13th global jihad thing, I don't even...
You know, you see that, and the only thing I'm thinking is, okay, this is absolutely a scam.
This is absolutely all orchestrated on both sides.
How you could possibly think that this would help the Palestinians or help the Gazans?
It's ridiculous. It's the worst idea ever.
I wonder how much of that we'll see.
It makes no sense.
It makes no sense at all. Of course, we are vulnerable to this because over the last several years, there's been a very, very concerted effort to flood our countries with people from the Middle East, Europe, and America.
unidentified
It's just one of these, it's just like...
harrison smith
How can all of this happen continuously?
How can they get everything wrong all the time, constantly, forever?
Like, it doesn't make any sense.
It doesn't make any sense!
I don't know, man.
I mean, I went on a big rant the other day when it was, you know, the headline was like, Turns out Black Lives Matter were the bad guys after all.
Turns out that wasn't the best organization to support.
And it's, you know, you go on this rant where it's like, okay, so we were right about COVID. We were right about Black Lives Matter.
Hell, we were right about the war in Iraq and the war in Afghanistan.
And we were right about the complete incompetence and failure of the Biden administration as we see world war on the cusp of breaking out.
Like we were right about the migrant crisis.
And we're right about this, but it's like either the people that run the world, the people at the top of every government and every corporation are just big fat dummies that can't understand basic cause and effect, or like all of this is on purpose.
I mean honestly, there is no justification for calling for Terrorist attacks worldwide.
Like right now, I think overall, at least what I'm seeing, there's a lot of sympathy for Gaza right now.
There's a lot of sympathy for the people that are being bombed into oblivion.
That's going to evaporate immediately if they start setting off bombs in Chicago, right?
This is just the stupidest thing ever for them to do.
Be utterly and totally...
Counterproductive. So...
So I'm against it.
I'm against it. This is so stupid.
So stupid. So...
Let's go to some more videos here.
This is...
Clip number five is Lindsey Graham.
She's being Lindsey Graham.
unidentified
Let's watch. We're in a religious war here.
lindsey graham
I am with Israel. Do whatever the hell you have to do to defend yourself.
Level the place. Right.
harrison smith
I mean, what?
We're in a religious war?
Okay. What side are you on, Lindsay?
Level the place, do whatever you have to do to defend yourself.
Well, displacing two million people is not necessary to defend yourself.
Bombing the Egypt gate so they can't leave is not defending themselves.
Flattening the entire area is not defending themselves.
It will only compound the problem.
And yet, so many people are about this.
Do we have the other clip of Lindsey Graham here?
lindsey graham
What I would do is I would bomb Iran's oil infrastructure.
The money financing terrorism comes from Iran.
It's time for this terrorist state to pay a price for financing and supporting all this chaos.
Yes, if you're the Iranians, if it were up to me, this war escalates.
I'm coming after you.

I think this is what I'm trying to clarify here, because I'm wondering...
lindsey graham
Us and Israel. Us and Israel.
abby phillip
The United States and Israel...
No, I'm going to be crystal clear. A joint operation between...
Let me just understand you, just to be clear.
You're saying that you would want the United States and Israel to bomb Iran, even in the absence of direct evidence of their involvement in this attack.
lindsey graham
Yeah. So if there's an escalation, Abby, if there's people's throats being cut on television as Israel goes into Gaza and they're threatening to kill the hostages, if Hezbollah is unleashed on Israel in the north, it will be because Iran is supporting that.
If you don't get the connection between Iran and this terrorist activity by Hamas and Hezbollah, you're missing a lot.
This is a terrorist state that has American blood on its hands.
It is now time to dismantle the financing system of terrorism if this war escalates.
Yes, I would do a joint military operation.
I tell the Iranians today, if the war escalates, you will pay a price.
You will be out of the oil business.
I want to be crystal clear on that.
And if we don't do that, What do you expect to happen in the future?
Do you expect Israel to forgive and forget?
Biden didn't mention one word about Iran today, and I want to support the president.
I'm supporting the Saudi-Israel peace deal.
Israel made peace with several Arab countries through their Abraham Accords.
I want to help the Palestinians we can do business with as part of a Saudi-Israel peace deal, but I'm tired of letting Iran I think they did this to stop the Saudi Arab peace negotiations, the Iranians.
I don't want to reward them.
abby phillip
I want to punish them. So Senator, can I ask you now about what's happening here in the United States?
Republicans on Capitol Hill, your colleagues, especially in the House, are debating whether or not to fund Israel and Ukraine.
Some of them don't want to fund Ukraine at all and only want to fund Israel.
But my question to you is, do you think the U.S. risks being stretched Too thin.
With these two incredibly significant conflicts happening at the same time, requiring quite a lot of American resources.
lindsey graham
Yeah, no, not really.
You know, my dad fought in Japan, and I had an uncle fought in Germany.
America fought the Germans and the Japanese at the same time.
Not one American has died in Ukraine.
Two of my Republican colleagues, who believe that we should pull the plug on supporting Ukraine, if you think Putin's going to stop at the Ukraine, you're not paying any attention.
China's watching everything we do, so I think it would be really ill-conceived to not support Ukraine.
They've destroyed half the Russian military.
We spent less than 5% of our defense budget, and not one American has died.
This has been a good investment.
Putin will keep going if we don't stop him in Ukraine.
As to Iran, if there's an escalation of this war against Israel, I'm blaming Iran.
And it's now time to put them on notice.
They will pay a heavy price.
I think we can do all those things.
I think if there was a war with Iran, we would win.
harrison smith
To the people of South Carolina, will you please stop electing this absolute psychopath?
Please. I mean, for the love of God, this preening Nancy Threatening nuclear strikes on foreign powers.
He's going to get us all killed.
You get that, right? You understand, America has thousands of servicemen in the Middle East that are sitting ducks right now.
We bomb Iran, they're all dead the next day.
He hasn't gotten the memo.
It's in World War II. Harrison Smith sitting in for Owen Schroer today.
Just marveling at the unrestrained arrogance of people like Lindsey Graham.
Beating the war drums against Iran.
And I guess that also means against Syria and Hezbollah and Russia and China.
We're just going to go to war with all of them, I guess.
Obviously won't be his life on the line.
I would be okay with a single bombing campaign against Iran.
One payload to Lindsey Graham.
Trust up like a hog.
Just drop him into Iran.
We say... He's yours now.
Let him start your wars.
Obviously, he's...
I mean, it's a joke, right?
It's a joke. Iran is not scared of this threat.
Iran has more than enough capability to blow our ships out of the water right now.
They have submarines, they have missiles, the likes of which we don't even have.
Their drone program is the most advanced drone program in the world.
And that's another aspect of this.
The technological advancements over just the last few years has totally changed the military
landscape.
And it's telling that his response, when asked like, what the hell are you talking about,
What are you talking about?
Yeah, there's him having started the war in Ukraine, right?
Hanging out with the Nazis there.
Well, we got to support them, you guys.
It's called a bloodletting.
It's called a bloodletting, and it clears up the spot for Raytheon and BlackRock to come move in and make a lot of money.
It's a great investment. Insane.
These people are insane. Like, actually dangerously insane.
And Iran is, they're laughing.
They're laughing. They're not scared.
Nobody's scared of America anymore.
We can't even fill our ranks with soldiers.
We can't even recruit people.
Nobody in America wants to be in the army.
Nobody in America wants to go die for Lindsey Graham's self-aggrandizement.
And it's telling that he invokes World War II For this, right?
Well, my grandpappy found in Japan.
Okay, what the hell are you talking about?
What does that have to do with anything?
That was 75 years ago.
Sort of different back then.
It's like weird to even have to make the argument.
Like, are we really?
Are we really? Are we really?
On the cusp of another Middle Eastern war, are we really making the same mistake over and over and over and over again?
Really? Really?
That's what we're doing? And yet again, it's like the unity behind this is something to behold, something to revel at, or to be astonished by.
And we're going to get into, again, some of the reality behind this and some of the reality behind the situation that Israel is in right now and the situation that America is in right now where neither one of us have the upper hand by any means, by any regard.
He's talking about Iran's oil production.
You realize if America gets involved in an incoherent and ill-advised way, We lose any semblance of control or influence in the Middle East forever.
Like, it's over at that point.
We've lost it. It's been diminished over time.
Does he want another Iraq?
Does he want another Afghanistan? The answer is yes.
I mean, that is the answer.
We have no... You know, leverage with these people, with these other countries, because we've put so many sanctions on them, because we've disentangled ourselves economically, war is the only option now to try to have any influence because of the ill-advised actions up to now.

That's tomorrow. And that is it for us today.
Okay, I don't know. Whatever it is, it's not right on a teleprompter.
I don't know what that is. I've never seen that.
Okay, but I can't read it.
There's no words on it.
Okay. Ready?
There's no words there to play us out.
What does that mean, to play us out?

The program that strikes fear into the heart of the elite.
It's the War Room.
harrison smith
Running for War's headquarters here in Austin, Texas.
Thank you so much for being here with us on the War Room.
As we just once again are just sitting here baffled, confused, shocked at the unwillingness of American politicians to learn from the recent past.
Learn from their own failures in the recent past.
And to drive us headlong towards an unwinnable conflict without even the possibility of a benefit of any sort.
And there's no benefit at all to even be considered.
Some of the latest. Israel has announced that it retook forces up to the boundary of the Gaza Strip.
Hamas fighters on the ground did not offer any significant opposition to the deployment of the Israeli army and almost certainly never intended to resist the return of Israeli soldiers.
But it took a very long time for the Israeli army to actually regain the land that was stormed by the Gazan brigades.
They have done it. They have not yet entered Gaza by land.
Now, they've announced multiple times and are continuing to announce that they are going to enter Gaza.
However, Hezbollah said that's a red line, and they'll get involved in a real way.
Oh, by the way, we'll take phone calls in a little bit.
There's some crazy happenings with this conflict.
You probably noticed, I think it was yesterday, maybe it was the day before, but there was big red alerts.
It was Hezbollah has entered the conflict.
Massive drone swarm descending from the north.
Red alerts, maps with red dots lighting up all over northern Israel as Hezbollah launched a drone swarm into Israel.
It wasn't drones. I don't know how this story hasn't gotten picked up more.
I forgot to even print it out today.
It wasn't drones, though.
It was pelicans. Nah, I'm serious.
Hezbollah somehow captured a bunch of migratory birds that pass from Europe or Western Asia.
They fly into Africa, and they don't fly over the ocean, so they fly over the land bridge of the Middle East.
And they captured these migratory pelicans, tied lights to their feet, and then let them go knowing they would fly south over Israel.
And that's what was detected by radar, which is crazy, which is just like, what are they doing?
It's like a prank. It's like a wartime prank.
Just keep everybody on their toes.
Maybe the crew can find that.
Literally, just search Hezbollah pelicans and you'll find this story.
News circulating on the Hebrew Channel 13, the information we obtained from the leadership in the northern region is that Hezbollah released a number of migratory pelicans with lights attached to their feet that caused terror.
Terror by pelican.
Now, for fans of history, you'll see a bizarre sense of continuity.
between this tactic and a tactic used by Hannibal of Carthage to trick the Roman army Hannibal at one point was boxed in by the Roman army And in order to escape, he tied torches to the horns of cows, a giant herd of cows. He tied torches to all of them and sent them off in a direction.
So the Romans followed that.
It was, you know, nighttime. All they could see were the torches.
They thought the army was moving.
They followed the army. By the time the sun comes up, they realize they've been chasing a herd of cows the whole time.
And the actual army has been allowed to escape.
And of course, Carthage was a settlement of the Phoenicians who come from Lebanon.
So there's this weird continuity of, like, Lebanese people tying lights to animals to trick the opposing army.
Very strange. Very bizarre sort of, yeah, continuity between ancient Rome and the general Hannibal's tactics.
And Hezbollah tricking Israel with a bunch of, with a flock of pelicans.
But it does, you know...
People think that Hezbollah is involved in this.
There have been little skirmishes between Hezbollah and Israel.
But I've explained this on the show.
There are certain places that are internationally recognized as not being Israel, but Israel occupies them.
The Golan Heights is one. Sheba Farms is another in Lebanon.
These are the places that they're attacking Israel.
Because basically they just want to keep their enemies on their toes.
They just want to not let them get comfortable.
Not let them feel too safe.
Just constantly keep that anxiety up.
And so they're doing things like this.
They're releasing pelicans with lights tied to their feet and causing consternation and panic in Israel.
There's weird stuff about this war, man.
And it is this strange combination between Ultra advanced technology and literally the oldest strategies in the world.
And like the most basic, you know, it's like the time that there's an Israeli drone flying over Hezbollah neighborhood and they took it down with stones.
Like that's sort of a way to imagine this conflict, is you have hyper-advanced thinking
machines flying through the air, being defeated by stones, by the oldest weapon in the world.
Interesting story that I haven't seen published anywhere else.
It's very strange. So the latest is this.
According to the IDF, its warplanes have struck 2,687 targets in Gaza as of early Thursday.
The bombing has displaced at least 340,000 people.
The United Nations Agency for Palestine Refugees said early Thursday an increase of 76,000 in 24 hours.
Nearly 220,000 of those people were sheltering 92 of NWR, W, N, UN RWAs schools in Gaza where
officials say there's no humanitarian access to food or other supplies and a water crisis
rooms, looms.
Shelters are overcrowded and have limited availability of food, non-food items and potable
water.
Water supplies cannot be replenished due to a total blockade on the Gaza Strip by the
Israeli authorities.
Fuel cannot be brought in and Israeli water supplies can no longer deliver food or water
in Gaza.
12 of the UN workers have been killed since the fighting began.
And that's just the beginning.
The casualties, of course, are in the thousands with somewhere upwards of 1,200 dead and 5,000 injured.
It's the latest count I saw as a result of the indiscriminate bombing of Gaza.
From ABC News, bombarded by Israeli airstrikes, conditions in Gaza grow more dire as power goes out.
With communities across the Gaza Strip already laid waste by a relentless barrage of airstrikes in retaliation to the Hamas surprise attack on Israel, conditions for Palestinians grew even more dire on as only...
Sometimes I have trouble reading.
Other times... People don't know how to write.
I don't know how this gets... Wait. Conditions for Palestinians grew even more dire on as the only power plant ran out of fuel.
I'm not crazy, right? That's a weird sentence.
Leaving the territory with no electricity and running water, officials said.
The shutdown Wednesday of the Gaza Electricity Power Plant plunged the 140 square miles composing the Gaza Strip into darkness Wednesday night and creating a humanitarian crisis for the 2.3 million residents who live there.
Making it, quote, impossible to continue providing all the basic life services, all of which depend on electricity, Gaza authorities said in a statement.
As of Thursday morning, at least 1,417 people have died and 6,000 others have been injured in Gaza since the airstrikes by Israel began.
The Palestinian health ministry said at least 447 of the dead in Gaza are children and 248 are women, the health ministry said.
And they're just getting started.
And they're just getting started.
Question is, when is enough enough?
When will it end? Where do we go from here?
Israel does not have the manpower to actually storm Gaza.
They don't even have enough bombs to totally reduce Gaza to rubble.
So what's next?
Alright, welcome back, ladies and gentlemen.
This is the war room.
War is the discussion of the day.
Israeli airstrikes hit Syria's Damascus and Aleppo airports.
It was reported by Reuters.
Syrian state media says Israeli forces have hit the country's two main international airports with missiles, putting them out of action.
State media said runways have been damaged at both Damascus and Aleppo airports and flights would be diverted to Latakia, a city in northwest Syria.
Israel has not commented on the strike.
It has previously attacked targets in war-torn Syria linked to Iran.
Iran's foreign minister was planning to fly to Syria on Friday.
Actually, they bombed the airport as he was flying, as he was about to land, and they turned around and flew back home since they couldn't land anymore.
Syria's Damascus and Aleppo airports not only handle civil aviation, but also host military bases, which are reportedly transit points for Iranian arms sent to Hezbollah, a militant group which is powerful in both Syria and Lebanon.
An unnamed military source quoted by Syrian state media said, simultaneous Israeli strikes had damaged landing strips of the two airports, putting them out of service.
A source called it a desperate Israeli attempt to divert attention from the Gaza conflict, willing to hamper the You know, participation of Syria in this.
And Syria has already called up two of their military contingents for the possibility of invading Golan Heights, which is an area that is technically internationally recognized as Syrian, but occupied currently by Israelis.
And it represents a strategic position.
Upper ground, sort of, it's an elevated area.
There's also a lot of oil there, and there's an American-slash-Israeli oil company that has the rights there.
So there's some aspect of that which is, you know, cause to the occupation of that area.
But importantly, it is an area that sort of oversees the rest of it.
If you can take Golan Heights, you have a very clear shot of basically the rest of Israel.
So, you know, if Hezbollah gets involved, it's like we're likely to see Syria take that area over.
Looks like there's some chaos in the West Bank here.
Cruz pulling up some tweets.
Palestinians set fire to the Ayal checkpoint connecting West Bank to near Kalkilia.
Now, it looks like it might be one of the areas that we've seen that has things like A.I., There's machine guns mounted.
There are these gates between Palestine and Israel, and they're actually guarded by face recognition automatic machine guns with AI determining whether to fire or not.
And this is actually a big reason why what happened on Saturday happened.
Now, there's a lot of reasons why Netanyahu in particular, Israel overall, would want to allow this to happen.
I've said it a couple times, but as you looked at the civil disorder of Israel over the last year, there have been massive protests against Netanyahu, massive corruption charges against Netanyahu, a failure to form a government in their parliamentary system.
And all of those problems have gone away in light of this attack, as of course they would.
And anytime we talk about this with friends or whatever, it'd be like, wow, Israel is really fracturing.
They're really at each other's throats.
And then all of a sudden, we'd say, yeah, well, now here comes the big attack, right?
Because they need to be unified, so an attack against them would provide for that unity.
And that has happened.
I mean, they formed a government now and all the trouble that they were in has sort of fallen by the wayside.
But on the other hand, there's an aspect of arrogance, of underestimating your enemies, of thoroughly not believing that Gaza was capable of something like a full-scale invasion of Israel.
And the totally novel tactics that they used.
Parachuting in. These are people that operate in tunnels most of the time.
You didn't expect them to have an air brigade, but they did.
Now the report is that Hamas began planning this attack on Israel two years ago after Afghanistan.
The story from Breitbart, Hamas began planning Saturday's terrorist attack across Israel two years ago, according to an interview Sunday of a senior Hamas official.
Ali Baraka told Russia Today on Sunday that Hamas had secretly been planning the invasion of southern Israel for two years, which would mean President Joe Biden took office and after the disastrous, deadly U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan.
So I think there may be an aspect of willful stand down, allow this to happen, unify Israel, give the excuse for what they've wanted for a long time, which is totally abolish and destroy Gaza.
But I don't know if they would be willing to do that because of this story.
Inside the war simulation that poured cold water on Israel...
In late July, Israeli newspaper Haaretz published a report that went unnoticed to a large extent.
The report vaguely discussed a war simulation carried out in Tel Aviv with the presence of a group of former American and Israeli officials as well as experts on Iran.
The Haretz reports provided no details about the participants deliberations or results of the simulation
But the Tehran Times obtained information that revealed what happened in the meeting in detail
The war game event was held at the Dan Hotel in Tel Aviv from the 16th and 18th of July of this year
The event was organized and hosted by the Tel Aviv based Institute for National Security Studies
INSS the group Represented the US Israel the Islamic Republic of Iran
Europe Russia China and the GCC countries and the resistance axis
So these were the...
Forces that the participants of this war simulation were playing as, right?
It's a big tabletop game, essentially.
You know, kind of like Event 201, that sort of thing.
But in this case, a war simulation.
Over three days, group members assumed the roles of the countries represented by their own group to draw up and simulate scenarios for the possible confrontation between Iran and Israel.
Haaretz hypothesized that the war game began with a mysterious assassination in Tehran that was attributed to Israel.
Three Iranian nuclear scientists were killed and Tehran responded by enriching uranium up to 90% while claiming the goal wasn't to manufacture weapons.
Within five days, Haaretz said, Israel slid into a full-scale regional war with Iran and its allies such as Hezbollah.
The group members sought to put themselves in the place of the countries mentioned above.
the discussions of the war game were deeply disheartening for Israel, according to information
obtained by the Tehran Times.
Playing U.S. President Joe Biden, Ross told the participants that the U.S. adheres to
its position on Iran and backs Israel's direct military action against Iran, but implied
that Washington wouldn't act directly against Iran.
So, of course, we're, you know, whether...
This is an accurate portrayal of America's real intentions, and what Lindsey Graham is doing is just blustering and saber-rattling, or rather whether the people engaged in this simulation were underestimating the commitment that America has to Israel.
But the Europe and GCC groups further dampened Israeli hopes of a military solution to Iran.
Europe is strictly focused on the war in Ukraine, the group representing Europe asserted, while the GCC group doesn't back military action and won't abet Israel in this regard.
All in all, the war game ended with grim prospects for an Israeli military action against Iran.
Israelis were told that neutralizing Iran's nuclear facilities through military actions has become much harder since 2012, and a military attack could well accelerate.
Iran's nuclear progress.
So in late July of this year, just a few months ago, a wide-scale, multinational war game scenario with this exact situation, Iran and Israel going to war, has Israel losing badly.
So why they would want to start that series of events?
I just don't believe it.
We'll cover that a little bit more on the other side.
Harrison Smith sending in for Owen Troyer on today's edition of The War Room.
I'm going to go ahead and open up the phone lines for your calls.

So how did this all happen and where does it go from here?
Well, again, I think this is a point against the conspiracy of the Israeli government allowing this to happen.
Because in July of this year, the Israeli government held a simulation for something very similar to this and they lost completely.
So if you have this information, if you know as of just three months ago that an all-out regional conflict leaves Israel more or less destroyed completely, why would you want to kickstart that right now?
That doesn't make any sense to me.
So I would point to they didn't want this to happen.
There's a story from...
I think maybe from Heretz.
I can't remember. I had to... This is a mainstream article.
It says, all is still quiet on the Iranian front.
The calm could be misleading.
For Netanyahu, a normalization with Saudi Arabia remains his main card for improving his political situation both at home and abroad.
And there's another big aspect of this is that there is a normalization of relations between Israel and Saudi Arabia.
That was brokered in part at least by China.
And of course the Abraham Accords contributed to that as well.
It's a generational issue where the older generations in Saudi Arabia...
Saudi Arabia is unique, right? It is a monarchy.
Everybody who has led Saudi Arabia since its founding has been a son or a grandson of the warlord leader that founded Saudi Arabia, King Saud.
Saudi Arabia was Arabia.
Saud took it over.
Now it's Saudi Arabia. And so you have Saudi princes.
He had a ton of kids.
They had a ton of kids.
Everybody has been a direct descendant of King Saud, who's ruled.
And the older generations, the grandfathers and the father of the current leader, Prince Mohammed bin Salman, were very dedicated to the Palestinian cause, Palestinian resistance, whatever you want to call it.
They backed Palestine.
In the modern era, MBS, Mohammed bin Salman, has sort of been less keen on making any sacrifices for Palestine.
If it was convenient, it's fine.
But if not, they'd rather make money.
They'd rather normalize. They'd rather get all the benefits of not supporting Palestine.
But that's changed. As of the bombing campaign against Gaza, Saudi Arabia has actually come out Saying they're rededicating themselves to Palestinian resistance.
They said the current calm in the Iranian arena may be misleading according to a war game conducted last week that I just discussed.
Doesn't go very well for Israel.
In the game, in talks between Israel and the United States after uranium enrichment, the Americans backed a direct Israeli operation in Iran.
Israel took action and caused massive destruction at two nuclear sites.
At this stage, various countries tried to cool things down, but the Iranians reacted to an additional Israeli attack with rocket fire by Hezbollah and by Shiite militias in Iraq and Syria.
Israel then attacked Hezbollah at weapon production sites in Lebanon.
Washington issued an ultimatum to Iran to cease all belligerent action within 24 hours, but Tehran continued its missile attacks against Israel and American targets in the region.
So again, this might be, this is the highest level military think tank systems who have access to all of the current information about who has what and who's capable of what.
And in their simulation, America was unable to stop Iran from operating with impunity in the region.
So nothing has changed since late July in that regard.
Which means that probably if this were to come to fruition and actually manifest in real life, America will be unable to issue ultimatums and then back them up against Iran.
Iran will continue to cause destruction to our military bases in the Middle East as they've shown they're capable of, but also against Israel.
In this simulation, within five days, Israel slid into a regional war against Iran, Hezbollah, and Shiite militias in the United States helping Israel attack Iran's nuclear sites.
Washington, which thought that its limited response would restrain Tehran, found itself deep in a war.
Iran and Hezbollah were too locked in a regional war they presumably didn't want.
All efforts at de-escalation failed.
Military responses at the initiating stage, viewed as restraint, were taken by the other side as something forcing it to respond accordingly.
To Netanyahu's supporters, the results of the war game might sound like just what the doctor ordered, dragging the United States with its vast military capabilities and strong international position into attacking Iran nuclear sites.
But that might not be the right conclusion.
The game ended with the entire region in flames and Israel paying a steep price, unprecedented strikes on the home front.
So again, this was the war game that was carried out in late July.
That had Israel essentially being left in flames and no good coming from it.
And yet we're in that situation now.
And part of this is because of the failure and over-reliance of Israel on AI.
From Reuters, Hamas assault on Israel shows surprise still possible in AI era.
On September 27th, barely a week before Hamas fighters launched the largest surprise attack
on Israel since the 1973 Yom Kippur War, Israeli officials took the chair of NATO's military
committee to the Gaza border to demonstrate their use of artificial intelligence and high-tech
surveillance.
Israeli officials spoke publicly of such technology in their last major war in Gaza in 2021, and
both its best AI and latest drones are doubtless again helping select and destroy targets in
The failure of those systems to deliver advance warning of Saturday's Hamas attack, however, represents a failure of intelligence likely to be studied and discussed for years.
The scale of the events over the weekend still only becoming clear.
Multiple forward Israeli positions and communities near Gaza were overrun.
U.S. Allied intelligence agencies that congratulated themselves on the early warning of Russia's February 2022 invasion of Ukraine also appear to have been taken by surprise.
Quote, there will have been warning signs, said one former Western intelligence official on the condition of anonymity.
Clearly, Hamas were able to do this without leaving a data trail or clues were there but not interpreted from the data.
From drones overhead utilizing facial recognition software to border checkpoints and electronic eavesdropping on communications, Israeli surveillance of Gaza is widely viewed among the most intense and sophisticated efforts anywhere.
According to a NATO statement, Dutch Admiral Robert Bauer was visiting Israel last month in part to learn from the expertise of Israel's nearby Gaza division and seek out innovative military capabilities.
In May, Israel Defense Ministry Director General Ayal Zamir said the country was on the brink of becoming an artificial intelligence superpower.
Using such techniques to streamline decision-making and analysis, events this weekend suggest Israeli authorities are already becoming overconfident in those abilities.
That may be a warning for other governments, increasingly turning to a range of artificial intelligence contractors who promise to be able to deliver incisive analysis and early warning.
Now part of what was assumed on this is that basically Hamas learned how much they were relying on AI and learned to game the system and were able to subvert and avoid it.
So I'll tell you how they did that on the other side and take your calls as well.
Alright folks, we'll go out to your phone calls this segment.
We'll just go in order that they arrived.
Still some open lines here if you want to call.
1-877-789-2539.
But there's a undercurrent of what's going on in Israel.
It has to do with AI and the reliance on AI as well as the buildup to this being a – how do I put this?
So there's a lot of – I don't think this had too much to do with it.
My speculation is if it had anything to do with it, it would be that Iran wanted to delay this attack until the- Discussions were concluded because it could mess up their negotiations.
But once those negotiations concluded, then they said, okay, there's no reason to hold back anymore.
That could be it. To the Iranians, there's nothing more we can get from America, so we don't have to worry about impacts on negotiation anymore.
But that $6 billion has not been sent to Iran, never will be sent to Iran.
I think now they might have just gone, like America might have just gone back and just retaken the $6 billion.
But the idea was that it would be spent on humanitarian aid and never actually be in the hands of Iran, but rather be used at their discretion.
But what we're seeing as we look through all the evidence is that it wasn't so much anything that happened immediately before this attack, but rather every failure of the Biden administration contributed in one way or another.
You had, according to Breitbart, And according to a Hamas leader, they started planning this right after the fall of Afghanistan.
So that would be sort of the kickoff.
They see Afghanistan fall and they think, man, America is really not the force it once was.
They may not be able to help if we attack Israel.
So that's how it sort of started.
Then the war in Ukraine causing us to drain our weapons reserves and spend billions of dollars and bog us down even more.
Then you have just – you do have the Iran negotiations, which at least would embolden Hamas or anybody aligned with Iran in planning this attack.
And you'll see more examples of that as we continue with these stories.
This one, again from Reuters.
It's called Hamas assault on Israel shows surprise still possible in AI conflict.
In concealing their attack, Hamas would have been helped by the conditions of Gaza Strip where Hamas seized power in 2007 and some 2.3 million people are hemmed in behind a 51-kilometer border.
To what extent fighters were pre-warned by commanders of plans for the assault remains unclear, but given Israel's reputation for recruiting human sources, Hamas' leaders may have been extremely tightly held.
Their plans were kept extremely tightly held.
Even a warning of hours or minutes might have made a difference to the shocked Israeli troops and civilians living on the border with Gaza.
The final moments before the assault, when movements could be, have been more readily
tracked may have been missed over the Sukkot religious holiday, as well as earlier training,
including that of paraglider flying militants.
To me, that means it's just obvious they were trained outside of Gaza, as there's no way
that could have been not seen.

Bye.
harrison smith
But Mossad chief David Barnea told a conference that Israel worried Russia might sell Iran advanced weaponry in return for vital drones.
So again, we see the war in Ukraine has allowed for a tighter relationship between Russia and Iran and a trading of drones from Iran, who has extremely advanced drone technology, more advanced probably than anybody in the world.
Russia needed that to defeat Ukraine and in exchange may very well have sent or still might sell advanced weaponry in return for these drones.
So whether it was the fall of Afghanistan or the conflict in Ukraine or the war in Syria, all of these things have piece by piece contributed to the situation that exists now that led to and allowed this Hamas attack to happen.
New York Times has a story how Israel's security services failed to stop Hamas, and this again hints at the failure of AI in all of this.
It says, Shortly before attackers from Gaza poured into Israel at dawn on Saturday, Israeli intelligence detected a surge of activity on some of the Gazan militant networks it monitors.
Realizing something unusual was happening, agents sent an alert to the Israeli soldiers guarding the Gazan border, according to two senior Israeli security officials.
But the warning wasn't acted upon, either because the soldiers didn't get it or the soldiers didn't read it.
Afterwards, Hamas, the group that controls Gaza, sent drones to disable some of the Israeli military's cellular communication stations and surveillance towers along the border, preventing the duty officers from monitoring the area remotely with video cameras.
The drones also destroyed remote-controlled machine guns that Israel had installed on its border fortifications, removing a key means of combating a ground attack.
So this is the thing. They are relying on this super-advanced AI technology, so they don't actually have people on the border, but they have cameras, and they have AI machine guns, and all sorts of things like that.
But simultaneously, Hamas has drone technology.
They have advanced technology of their own that can be used to basically blind Israel in an event such as this.
They talk about all the reasons that this may have happened.
They talk about, obviously, the holiday that was on, the failure of intelligence officers to monitor key communication channels used by Palestinian attackers, over-reliance on border surveillance equipment that was easily shut down, So that's what was happening.
Basically... Hamas knew that Israel was monitoring them, knew what channels they were monitoring, so they went to those channels and were talking about not attacking.
We're saying, gee, things sure are quiet around here.
Sure am glad we're not going to attack Israel anytime soon.
And whether that was, you know, monitored by human intelligence that failed to recognize the lie, or whether it was just AI that still is not capable of actually interpreting human language to the extent necessary for it to be in charge of surveillance, basically they gamed the system.
They used the channels they knew were being monitored to put out false information that
lulled Israel into a false sense of security.
Just a modern manifestation of a classic military technology conflict that ever since probably
World War I, at least World War II, has been a regular feature of clandestine operations
where you're sending out false information to befuddle or overwhelm or distract from
your actual operations.
Let's go to your phone calls now.
Brandon in Arizona wants to talk about Michael Flynn on Israel.
Go ahead, Brandon. You're on the air.
unidentified
Hey, Harrison. Can you hear me okay?
harrison smith
Yes, sir. Perfect.
unidentified
I just was curious if you had the opportunity to watch the General Flynn interview with Clay Clark on the Thrive Time show, which is one of the channels that you guys have, where he initially just lays out when he was there.
You know, he had been there about 20 times over in Israel, and he had Ben on the borders, it's just interesting that he indicates there's basically no opportunity or no way that Israel would not have known what was taking place.
The element of surprise is just It's kind of not possible.
It was a very, very interesting podcast.
Did you have a chance to hear his interview?
Because he really just forth-gumps it down and explains the fact that there is some items going in the Israel military that, you know, It allowed them to come in.
Very easy. Yes, they were coming in through paragliding and they were bringing in cars, but they showed video of them just literally cutting open a fence and just coming on in.
And it's just interesting because you had mentioned the war game scenario months before this took place.
It just sounds very eerie and similar to the COVID war game scenario, right?
Right before COVID took place.
It's almost... It's just...
I don't know. What are your thoughts?
It just seems a little interesting, I guess.
harrison smith
Well, I hadn't seen that interview.
I mean, is it some of the stuff that we're talking about here, the surveillance and the cameras, and he was basically saying the surveillance was so complete that it's impossible to sneak up on him?
unidentified
Yes, sir. Yeah, that's exactly correct.
I mean, he just basically said that the surveillance and the sophisticated technology that he knows that's literally at the borders, that he's been there, that he's seen it over 20 times, it's just not possible.
Almost somebody would have to turn a blind eye And if that makes sense, right?
And just kind of let them come on in.
Because of the technology that they had, they should have fully known that this was coming in advance, if that makes sense.
It was just very interesting.
It was almost as if it was the flip of the switch and they just shut everything off and allowed them to come on in, you know?
harrison smith
Well, I'll comment on that on the other side.
We've got to go to commercial break. Thanks for the call, Brandon.
But I hadn't seen that interview, but I'll take a look at it.
Harrison Smith sitting in for Owen Troyer.
It's the third hour of the War Room.
Taking your phone calls now.
The previous caller asked about an assertion by Michael Flynn, by General Flynn.
I hadn't heard, but it goes to the, you know, sort of theory that what happened in Israel was allowed to happen.
As Israel turned a blind eye, that's not an impossibility.
It's funny, you talk to my Middle Eastern friend, and he's like, you know, they say, like, we could have never imagined what Hamas did.
He's like, well, that's just a failure of imagination.
That's just racism.
That's just underestimating your enemy to a fatal degree.
And there may be some aspect of that.
And, you know, Donald Trump actually made this point yesterday.
We'll go to that video in a second, then we'll go back out to your phone calls.
But again, from this New York Times article, they say the first failure that led up to this took root months before the attack as Israeli security chiefs made incorrect assumptions about the extent of the threat that Hamas posed to Israel from Gaza.
He said they stayed out of two fights in the past year, allowing Palestinian Islamic Jihad, a smaller armed group in Gaza, to take on Israel alone.
Last month, Hamas leadership also ended a period of rioting along the border in an agreement brokered by Qatar, giving the impression that it was not looking for an escalation.
Quote, Hamas is very, very restrained and understands the implications of further defiance, said Tachi Hanegub, Israeli name, Israel's national security advisor in a radio interview just six days before the assault.
When Israeli intelligence officials briefed senior security chiefs last week about the most urgent threats to the country's defenses, they focused on the dangers posed by Lebanese militants along Israel's northern border.
the challenge posed by Hamas was barely even mentioned.
So, I mean, this may have been allowed to happen, but it may have just been a, just,
it's a failure you can't make in war, to underestimate your enemy, to disregard an enemy and think
And if this is true, then that means that Hamas is playing directly in line with the art of war, right?
When you're strong, appear weak. When you're weak, appear strong.
And if Hamas is building strength and getting ready for this...
The thing they want to do is to be quiet and make everybody else think that nothing is happening.
In calls monitored by Israeli intelligence agents, Hamas operatives who talked to one another also gave the sense that they sought to avoid another war with Israel so soon after a damaging two-week conflict in May 2021, according to two Israeli officials.
Israeli intelligence, they said, is now looking into whether those calls were real or staged.
Well, I can tell you they were staged because they clearly were about to attack.
Hope I cleared that up.
Two of the officials said that on the Israeli border surveillance system was almost entirely reliant on cameras, sensors and machine guns that are operated remotely.
Israeli commanders had grown overly confident in the system's impregnability.
They thought that the combination of remote surveillance and arms, barriers above ground and subterranean wall to block Hamas from digging tunnels into Israel made mass infiltration unlikely, reducing the need for significant numbers of soldiers to be physically stationed along the borderline itself.
With the system in place, the military started reducing the number of troops there, moving them to other areas of concern.
The thinning of forces seemed reasonable because of the construction of the fence and the aura they created around it as if it were invincible that nothing would be able to pass it.
And of course the people that have paid the price for this have been the Israelis in southern Israel.
And I've had conversations with Israeli friends where they're like, They're like, no, it's fine in Israel.
It's just like, you know, it's totally safe.
It's just you have to go through the metal detector every time you go in a building.
And you have to be surveilled all the time.
It's all these things that to me are like, well, that sounds awful.
It sounds like you live in a prison.
I don't want that here.
But it's the agreement, it's the bargain that Israelis made that said, we'll give up our freedom, we'll give up our guns, we'll give up our...
You know, ability to protect ourselves and trust the government to protect us as they promise that they can.
And when that government fails, you're left without a weapon, without a defense, without
unidentified
even a warning of what's to come.
Is she alright? Seems okay if we can get to it.
If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine.

Harrison Smith sending in for Owen Schroer.
Third hour is on.
Please do go to Infowarsstore.com to support everything that we do here.
Everything that we do is just trying to stop the globalists from manufacturing crises and starting wars with the sole intention of degrading and weakening our national sovereignty in order to envelope us into A one-world global government and how all of this seems to be contributing to exactly that.
We'll go out to your phone calls this hour.
We have Chaz in North Carolina.
I want to talk about a bombing report from 2001.
Go ahead, Chaz. You're on the air.
chaz in north carolina
Yeah. Before I get into the video I saw, you know, we'll just say USS Liberty and the Le Bon Affair.
And the story of weapons of mass destruction that Saddam Hussein had.
Now, from what I saw in this video, it was a short clip of this man being interviewed on a news channel sometime in the early 2000s, and he had an army report in his hand detailing that basically Israel was In so much strife with the Arab nations surrounding it that it was more than willing to carry out attacks on Americans to draw the U.S. into a war against the Arab nations.
And this was, like I said, it was early 2000s.
It might have been before 9-11 happened.
It might have been shortly after 9-11 happened.
I think we all know that inept terrorists would never have been able to plan and strategize and carry out the 9-11 terror attacks without someone who actually knows what they're doing calling the shots for them.
harrison smith
Well, we know there's been a lot of evidence that Mossad at least had foreknowledge of 9-11, if not actually participated in it.
Yeah, the Levon affair, the attack at the King David Hotel, the USS Liberty, which would have gotten us involved into a war with Egypt and the other Arab nations in 1967, attacked by Israel.
And luckily it didn't sink, so the soldiers really heroically prevented us from being involved in that catastrophic war.
I mean, this is how, I mean, every war we've been in pretty much since, you know, U.S.-Spanish War has been predicated on some false flag attack against either American military, like Pearl Harbor, or against American citizens, like the Lusitania.
So that's, I mean, if you want to get America involved in a war, all you got to do is kill some of those people and wave somebody else's flag, whoever you want America to attack.
Sometimes they don't even have to be involved.
Look at Iraq and the intelligence that led to the belief that there were weapons of mass destruction that was totally fabricated.
I wonder where that came from.
So yeah, this is not, it's not just not out of the realm of possibility, they've literally tried it multiple times, yeah.
chaz in north carolina
Yeah, so like, there's all these questions around how did Hamas possibly pull off this large-scale attack, and I'm sitting here thinking about these other things that have happened suspiciously, and I'm like, well, you know, maybe they didn't just let it happen, maybe they had some guys on the inside Pulling some strings and knowing exactly how to get past the border and knowing exactly how to overwhelm the Iron Dome missile defense system.
harrison smith
It's definitely a possibility.
We know that according to Egypt, they warned Israel repeatedly, including three days before the attack, that something big was coming.
And those warnings went completely unheeded.
They didn't care, apparently.
They showed no interest in finding out more about it.
And that may be just evidence of their reliance and confidence in the AI system that failed them.
I don't think you need to coordinate that much.
I think that the official story kind of makes a lot of sense.
It kind of actually could have happened just like they say.
They use drones, take out the surveillance equipment.
They just overwhelm the Iron Dome with just firing way more missiles than Israel ever thought they could have.
The New York Times article about this really...
Lays out sort of exactly how it happened in a way that is convincing to me that that's exactly how it could have happened.
But that being said, it clearly has been to the benefit of Netanyahu personally and the stability of the Israeli state as a whole.
Although, was it worth it putting them in this existential position?
I don't know about that.
Thank you for the call, Chaz. Let's go to George in California.
You want to talk about the Israeli conflict.
Go ahead, George. You're on the air.
unidentified
Hey, Harrison. How's the audio, brother?
Good. Thank you. First and foremost, man, as I always say, God bless you and the crew.
We love you guys. We're always tuning in.
What a big shout out to Owen.
God bless him. And I hope that thing doesn't go through with his having to go in.
There's a guy I referred you folks to for him.
He's a federal judge.
His name is Russell J. Gould.
If he can get in touch with him, he might have information for him.
And what I wanted to talk about was, well, I'm the resident Infowars Armenian that keeps calling in.
Oh, yeah. I'm laughing because Owen yesterday was hosting and...
A guy called in from Glendale.
He was like, man, you had these Armenians that came and shut down the freeway over here in Glendale.
I started cracking up. I was like, man, I know, but what do you expect us to do?
We're screaming war crimes, genocide happening right now in real time since 2020 in Armenia where the whole land currently that was disputed, Artsakh, that land is completely gone.
It's been... Falsely but legally signed over to Azerbaijan completely.
It's gone. 120,000 ethnic Armenians have moved from that land into Armenia proper.
And now Azerbaijan has a border with Iran, which they're having problems with.
And two weeks ago, Alex had this amazing, really smart British man, Warren Thornton, on there.
He was talking, he actually mentioned the Armenian conflict, how the powers that be are opening up multiple fronts to start whatever they want, however they want, and Armenia-Azerbaijan was just one of them.
And if we go back in history, World War I, when World War I broke out, 1915 was the Armenian Genocide.
For some reason, they always pick on Armenians first, and then something happens to the Jewish community, like in World War II. So back in 2020, we had our war.
No one cared. We were screaming, like, guys, America stopped funding the killings of Armenians in Artax.
No one did anything now.
The war broke out again in 2023.
That land is gone.
And all of a sudden, we have another conflict in Israel.
To say that history repeats itself and that it's cyclical is just an understatement, but it's just fascinating how they keep doing these games.
And it's sad for me because our cause really never gets out into the mainstream or anything loud at all.
harrison smith
No, I know. And that was one of the instances where I saw that protest, and it was like I hadn't even heard of that conflict until that protest.
And so I was like, okay, look, a legitimate protest, actually bringing awareness where it's being ignored.
That's what protest is supposed to be all about.
Thank you for the call, George. All right, welcome back, folks.
We're going to go directly out to your phone calls once again.
I see a bunch of interesting callers, and I want to get their input.
Jefferson in Virginia is next.
Go ahead, Jefferson in Virginia, you are on the air about the Israel-Palestine conflict.
jefferson in virginia
Yes, Harrison, how's it going?
unidentified
Good, thank you. Yeah, this AI thing is just a cover story.
jefferson in virginia
That's the whole point of having AI, is so the people in charge can fail by relying too heavily on the AI, and then nobody is to blame for the failure.
We shouldn't fall for that.
It's just like the self-driving car when you're drunk.
Are you a drunk driver when the car is driving itself?
harrison smith
Well, so you don't think that they were relying too heavily on AI and that sort of bit him in the butt?
jefferson in virginia
I think that's an elaborate cover story.
Certainly when you run drills on your AI system, you're supposed to anticipate being overwhelmed, having the AI run machine guns being taken out by whatever.
I mean, the idea that this is Something they couldn't anticipate, and they don't have a backup system.
That's always the fallback, is that there's no backup system that's sufficient for when the AI system fails.
They never have enough manpower to deal with it, and then they act like, well, that was an oversight.
But there's nobody – nobody's ever held accountable.
Where's the general that screwed this up?
Right. Have we seen him in a press conference yet?
No. Because they always want to have this system in place and say, well, we just made a mistake.
You know, we're not going to blame anybody.
Now is not the time to ask these kind of questions.
Now, the next question is, what is Israel supposed to do with Gaza?
And I would say they should drop leaflets on the city and tell the women and children to get out, provide them with cruise ships, boat lift them off the coast somewhere, and then tell anybody that's still there they're going to get eliminated.
And I'm pretty sure Israel has neutron weapons.
So it's a big x-ray.
They're all going to get irradiated if they stay there.
harrison smith
Well, I mean, that's not really possible because Gaza is, like, inside Israel.
So, I mean, the fallout from that would be devastating to the surrounding area.
jefferson in virginia
There's no big fallout from a neutron weapon.
We're not talking on the same wavelength here.
A neutron weapon is a big X-ray machine.
It just radiates you with high-intensity radiation.
There's a small amount of blast, and it's an air burst, so there's not a lot of fallout.
And I don't know which way the wind blows from Gaza, but I don't think it blows into Israel, what little fallout there might be.
But I think Israel is willing to take that, if they have to, to get these scum off the planet, one way or the other.
They can repopulate afterwards.
harrison smith
I guess I don't understand.
I mean, do you think that this is an appropriate reaction?
jefferson in virginia
Yeah, I told you a month ago that this is a Gordian knot we're never going to undo unless we're willing to engage in a certain amount of genocide.
So they let the women and the children live, those that are smart enough to get on the boats, but you get rid of the men.
harrison smith
Yeah, I don't know. It just seems horrible to me.
It just seems like not an appropriate thing to do to human beings.
And, I mean, like I said, we saw the horrors that were committed by Hamas on Saturday.
But that doesn't give you a right to genocide 2.3 million people, right?
I mean, there's no way that they end up on the right side of history having...
Murdered 2 million or 1 million people, I guess, if you want to just include the men.
I can't imagine how that would do anything other than maybe inflame the anger of Iran and Syria and others who would then think, well, crap, if we don't deal with Israel right now, they're going to do that to us.
So, I don't know.
That just seems like a...
A pretty horrific concept to me.
jefferson in virginia
Yeah, it's pretty darn scary, but it's supposed to be.
But I'm pretty sure if you were actually to go through with it, the mullahs in Iran would really have to second-guess themselves as to whether Israel is willing to...
They're not going to drop leaflets on Tehran.
They're not going to give them warning ahead of time.
It's perfectly fair to give people advanced warning about what's about to happen.
harrison smith
Yeah, I don't know. That sounds horrifying to me.
And it sounds like mass murder.
And I can't imagine that that would work out well for Israel in the long run.
I mean, that is basically what the Israeli government is essentially doing right now.
But I guess you'd call that a final solution for the Palestinian question?
jefferson in virginia
Well, for at least 25, 30 years, they're not going to have grown men willing to cross the border in suicide missions after you take care of that problem.
Those are dumb enough to stick around.
I mean, they don't know what's coming. You're not going to tell them necessarily how you're going to take them out, but you already know they're hunting for you.
But even if you're down in the tunnels, a neutron bomb will take you out.
You can rebuild in Gaza, but you're going to need the help of able-bodied men from another country to do it because you're not going to have many of them there afterward.
harrison smith
Yeah, I don't know. Yeah, pretty good.
That doesn't happen, Jefferson, because that sounds like, again, mass...
I mean, I guess my struggle here is...
Do you think that's the only option?
Or do you think that's a good option?
Like, that's a good thing that can happen?
Or that's, like, necessary because if you don't do that, it'll be worse?
Like, what are you trying to prevent by doing that?
I think, you know, another solution would be, like, not, like, just, like, giving Gazans their rights.
Like, is that a preferable thing to nuking them?
Or is nuking the preferable option here?
jefferson in virginia
Well, I don't think they're giving us a lot of choices if they're going to engage in the activity they just did over the last week and whether Israel let it happen so they could go ahead and do this and end the problem, at least for the foreseeable future.
I think we have to stop falling for the argument that somehow this was accidental.
I think pretty much Israel let this happen to them.
And they're going to keep that close to the vest.
They're not going to admit that. So maybe they have a larger plan for Gaza than we recognize.
But there is no preferable situation here in the Middle East with this mess we've sort of set ourselves up in.
And I know it's a horrible sounding solution, but at least the women and
children, they're smart enough to take advantage of the opportunity to leave,
can decide what they want to do with their civilization and their culture
harrison smith
from that point on. And they would presumably come to Europe or something
and then and then the kids whose fathers were vaporized by Israel, they would just
forgive and forget?
And Iran wouldn't have anything to say about that, and Hezbollah's massive firepower wouldn't be brought into the equation there.
I mean, this just makes no sense.
You're advocating mass murder of upwards of a million people because about a thousand people were killed in a military operation against what the combatants perceive as occupied land.
I mean, how could that possibly be a reasonable response?
jefferson in virginia
Well, it's not proportional.
I'm not sure it's unreasonable.
And pretty much, if I'm in Hezbollah and this happens to Gaza, I'd be worried about a neutron attack on me, too.
harrison smith
I wouldn't hesitate to launch the offensive.
jefferson in virginia
Well, but a neutron attack stops your offensive in its tracks.
You're irradiated.
You're dying of radiation sickness within five minutes.
harrison smith
I don't know. I think Israel is already sort of abandoning the high ground morally here by doing what they're already doing.
I can't imagine that killing everyone in Gaza would be celebrated as some act of bravery in the future.
I think they'd be seen as mass murderers the likes of the Nazis forever.
So, bad idea. Harrison Smith sitting in for Owen Schroer here today.
Just sort of confused at the response to this attack by Hamas.
I guess I'm just sort of baffled at people's unwillingness to look for a solution that isn't genocide or rather to openly advocate genocide.
Even the Heads of Israel being like, we're fighting Nazis here.
We have to kill their children.
It's like, I don't think you're the good guys anymore.
I don't think you get to retain the moral high ground when your response to a raid is to glass the entire area.
That seems insane to me.
Maybe we can...
There's got to be a better...
So there's got to be a better final solution to the Palestinian question.
Rather than a neutron bomb, would it not be more efficient?
Put them in camps?
Gas them there? Burn their bodies?
I mean, I think that's a significantly more humane option.
You could have a nice wide camp, the gate.
You could have like a saying above it instead of like work makes you free.
It could be like we have a right to defend ourselves, something like that.
And this is crazy. Let's go back out to your calls here.
Jewish American in an undisclosed location has a comment about gun rights, guns in Israel.
Thanks for calling in. Jewish American, you're on the air.
unidentified
Hey, how you doing? Good, thanks.
Shalom. Yeah, look, here's what I'm dealing with.
You know, I don't feel safe.
I'm a Jewish-American. But I'm basically forced to go be a sitting duck every day because I want to get a degree.
So I have to go to a gun-free zone.
And they've got some security guards now because of this threat.
They're going to have some cops.
This threat on Friday.
They have some cops patrolling the building.
But, like, I just want my Second Amendment.
You know, it's crazy to me when COVID happened, you know, you had to stay home.
Now I have to go to school.
You know, I want to just stay home and Zoom now with a firearm real close.
But I can't. I have to go put myself in danger every day.
It's really bullshit. In Israel, everyone's getting, like, machine gun licenses, right?
I mean, it sucks.
The liberals control everything here.
You guys are the ones, hey, dean, dean of my school, you're making a Jew go be a sitting duck.
You're making a Jew, and you're keeping a Jew from defending himself.
So that's a big problem, and I'm not okay with that.
harrison smith
Yeah, yeah, I can see where you're coming from.
Have you experienced stuff on a college campus?
Are you at a big state school or a smaller?
You don't have to tell us where you go, but wherever you are, what sort of style of school is it, and have you actually experienced threats?
unidentified
Yeah, it's a law school in Florida, and no threats.
But, you know, I just don't want to go to school without a firearm.
I would love to stay home like we did when COVID was going on, right?
Just have a firearm nearby.
But I only get to do the Zoom thing when it's something they say merits that.
You know, who's to say, This doesn't merit the Zoom show.
We're in a crisis. Excuse my French.
We're in a crisis. But they say what crisis is merit what responses.
harrison smith
Yeah, I do need you to avoid using four-letter words.
We're on the radio. We'll have to drop you here if you do it again.
So I don't want to do that. Yeah, well, it sounds like you're kind of coming down with COVID there, Jewish man.
It sounds like you might have a little scratchy throat.
Maybe two weeks off is what you need right now.
Not a bad idea.
Not to make a joke out of it, but that is a possibility.
You can always just fake being sick.
unidentified
Can you say one more quick thing?
Yeah, please. So, you know, the King David Hotel, that was some Jews.
It was the Ergon. They're basically the founding fathers of Israel.
My family's connected to them.
I want to advocate for them.
You know, what's wrong with resisting the British?
They didn't have a great life under the British.
They stood up. It's cool when Americans do it, when the colonists do it.
It's just not cool when the Israelis do it.
I think there's also something to be said.
There's a lot of overlap between our cultures.
We have brotherly love.
There's a lot of great Israelis.
You know, they're going to be the guys who pull out the gun at the supermarket to defend other people because they want to help other people.
So something to be said for that.
And I'll leave it there.
harrison smith
Yeah, well, I think the King David Hotel thing is that it was a false flag and it was targeting citizens, not actual, like, military.
It wasn't like a military target, right?
unidentified
No, it was a hotel full of British soldiers.
harrison smith
Well, I'll have to...
I don't have the details on me right now, so I'll have to get into that.
I just know it's an example of...
Moderately terroristic activity.
unidentified
Okay. I think it's wrong that Nick Fuentes hates all dual citizens.
I'm a dual citizen. I want to contribute to this country.
I want to do things right.
So I think dual citizens have a place in America.
You know, I love America.
I love Israel. My grandma was running through the streets when she was a kid because British tanks would chase her just to mess with her.
Not a great life. And they had every right to stand up then.
And, you know, there's probably good arguments on both sides today with the Palestinian thing, but I don't think the ends justify the means.
I think they've lost all credibility with the way they're waging warfare.
And I think, you know, the cartel, groups like this, they don't play by the rules.
I think all the governments on Earth should rise up and stamp out groups like that.
You know, you have to follow the procedure, you know?
Those kids start hitting each other, you stop them.
harrison smith
Yeah, but, you know, to me, it's like, you know, the cartels might be a good example where, like, yeah, we should be acting militarily against the cartels, but I would never support, like, a mass bombing campaign against, like, Mexican villages, you know, where we'd be killing hundreds of innocent people that had nothing to do with the cartel, or at least, you know, aren't engaged in the cartel activity, which is why it's sort of like, you know, putting myself in the position of Israel.
I can't imagine, you know, thinking that this would be a good idea.
And, you know, I'm with you on the dual citizen thing.
You know, a lot of my friends are dual citizens.
But what about when you have things like Blinken going to Israel and saying, I'm a secretary of state, but I'm also a Jew?
And, you know, the statements like I talked about earlier, where you have like American politicians really kind of blatantly like pledging allegiance to a foreign country.
I mean, that's not acceptable, is it?
I have no problem with, you know, dual citizens.
Yeah. You know, anywhere in life, but when you have politicians running our country that seem to be just as loyal, if not more loyal, to a foreign nation than our own, I mean, that's an issue, right?
unidentified
Yeah, I hear where you're coming from.
At the same time, it's like, in my eyes, I see it this way.
You're in an open-air prison, whether you're there, whether you're here, and, you know, we should work together with our dual citizens and our Israeli friends.
Try to make the whole world a more free place.
harrison smith
I'm with you on that, for sure.
unidentified
If I want to be president one day, you're not going to vote for me because I'm a dual citizen, what if I've got the best ideas?
I think you should look at everything, kind of try to balance the facts and look at the context every time.
So anyways, I think Lincoln sucks for other reasons, not because he's a dual citizen.
harrison smith
Yeah, yeah. Well, me too.
Me too, my friend.
unidentified
Hashtag me too. Hashtag me too.
harrison smith
Yeah, yeah, exactly.
Well, thank you very much for the call.
And look, I've said this a million times.
I have friends that, either them or their family or their friends, like they're getting the summons to come fight for Israel.
They're in the IDF or they have family or friends that are being affected by this.
I really do want what's best for everybody.
And, you know, I'm just as adamantly against Hamas committing terror against citizens as I am against Israel bombing citizens that have nothing to do with it.
I think the whole thing is so extreme and unwarranted that it's dangerous for everybody, and I really don't think that the Israeli government is operating in a way that is beneficial at all to the Israeli people.
And I I fear what the cost that they pay will be for these actions moving forward.
And also, everybody should have a gun.
Everybody should have a gun. We'll just leave it at that.
Maybe I'll bring it up on the other side.
Stay with us. All right, welcome back, folks.

I'm your host, Harrison Smith.

We'll just go to phone calls this segment There's a there's a time where I was working on a film set
Bye.
We had a Jewish director...
He was very devout, you know, just like any religion, you have different, you have a spectrum of devoutness, I guess you could say.
This guy was like on the far, far end, like every meal, kosher, or the kippah, the hat or whatever.
We were, at one point, a whole bunch of us were debating about gun control.
I, of course, was on the side of guns.
But he was, he brought up something where he was like, you know, he was like, ever since I was young, you know, my grandmother always told me, like, always have a full belly.
Always have a full belly because she had lived through the experience of one day somebody might come drag you out of your home and whether you survive or not might be dependent on whether you have eaten recently.
If you go, you know, a couple hours without eating and then get dragged away and you're starving to death.
And, like, I get that this is a very potent fear.
It's very well-founded for many people, after all.
I mean, we're not so far removed.
And many, if not, like, most Jews in America right now, my age or older, have grandparents who, like, actually experience this.
So you can't exactly blame them.
It's not like this is paranoia.
It is a little bit because America isn't like that.
There's no, you know, real chance of that happening.
But I understand that that is a very real and it's something that people grow up with story, like literally stories of like the time grandmother went to bed one day, everything was normal.
She woke up and the Nazis were in town and she was dragged out of her home.
Like I get that's a very horrifying thing.
Of course, my response to that is, would you rather have a full belly when the jackbooted thugs come for you or a gun?
I'd rather have a gun.
I'd rather the citizens have a gun.
A well-armed populace is impossible to oppress in the way that Jews were oppressed by the Nazis or anything else.
So, I like that that last caller was like, I don't feel safe, so I want a gun.
It's like, that's the correct answer.
You can defend yourself.
And that's why we have the Second Amendment.
Let's go back out to your phone calls now.
Nick in Oklahoma. Let's talk about the relationship between the Middle East and the Ukraine.
Go ahead. Nick, you're on the air.
unidentified
How's it going, Harrison? How you doing today?
Good, thank you. It's good to hear your voice.
It's all the musical chairs that you guys keep playing.
I keep... Throughout the day, I'm like, hmm, whose turn is it this time?
harrison smith
I know. Well, I'll tell you, I'll be back. I'll be back on American Journal tomorrow
morning. But this setup I think will be semi-permanent while Owen is serving his time. So around
the end of October, I'll be host of the War Room for about two months and Chase will take
over for American Journal for that time. And then we'll swap back once Owen is released.
So it shouldn't be too much chaos between here and there.
And then once that happens, it'll just be a straight switch and then we'll be good. But
thanks for calling in, Nick.
What's your comment?
unidentified
Yes. So, yeah.
I'm sitting here and basically what I understand, what's keeping, and correct me if I'm wrong, but what's keeping World War III from kicking off is Israel going into Gaza.
Is that right? That's pretty much what's holding everything back right now.
harrison smith
Well, that is – so Hezbollah has a red line.
If Israel enters Gaza with ground troops, then Hezbollah will get involved in a real way in the conflict.
So far they have not entered Gaza, but they're in a tough spot because if they don't enter Gaza, it's really not a good thing for Israel.
I mean they're essentially admitting that they can't handle all of these enemies at once.
But if Hezbollah gets involved, America said they're getting involved, and Iran said they would get involved.
So those are the dominoes that are lined up.
Whether they actually fall that way, I guess, is still yet to be seen.
But yes, if they injure Gaza, that very well might be the beginning of the domino chain effect of getting us into full-fledged world war.
unidentified
Yes. Okay.
I just wanted to make sure I overstood the whole...
You know, kind of the whole situation.
That being said, I don't know about everybody else, but I am a God-fearing man.
You know, I know that no matter what, when I die, I'm going to heaven.
And I also know that, you know, being a combat veteran myself, the last thing I would ever want is war.
But I'm also a parent.
And all of these globalists and all of these liberals, you know, Sometimes, after you tell a child enough times to stay away from the stove, the eye on that stove is hot.
You know, that child's gonna reach up there and grab that hot eye and burn themselves.
And sometimes that's what's required in order for a child to learn a lesson.
Now, that being said, I mean, I know that sounds extreme, but, I mean, we all know it to be true.
You know, I guess what I'm saying is, Why don't we all just put on our boots?
Let them have their world war.
And when the world war is done and over with, then we go after the nice pretty four-letter colorful words to go after the people that started it.
Why can't we do that?
After the dust settles from the war, every country go back to their own leadership and Well...
harrison smith
Well, I guess it's an interesting idea, but that's not the way it's worked in the past.
I mean, every world war, the last two world wars that have happened have resulted in basically the advancement of the globalist ideal, right?
The First World War ended with the League of Nations.
The Second World War ended with the United Nations.
The Third World War, actually Greg Reese has a new report.
I haven't played it today, but it's only about two minutes long, but it basically says three world wars were One world government, one world religion.
So I think war is a last resort.
I think in the modern paradigm, it would be horrifically devastating.
It's just not an option.
I mean, again, we're in this horrible spot where even if we wanted to...
You know, go to war and do this.
It just wouldn't go well.
Let's just say that. It wouldn't go well for anybody.
I mean, massive destruction.
And even if you could get a hard reset, like you're talking about, the price you'd pay to achieve that would be way too huge.
You know, that being an outcome is probably not the most likely one.
So I don't know about that, but I get your frustration, Nick.
I do understand the impulse to just be like, can we just do a hard reset on the whole world real quick and then get back to some semblance of normality once it's all over?
I totally get that impulse, but it's just not a good path to go down.
Thanks for the call, though. Let's go to one more call.
We got Steve in Alaska, one minute left in the show.
Steve, you're on the air. Yeah, buddy.
unidentified
I want to make a quick connection that a lot of people seem to fail to get.
So with the whole COVID thing, Israel is one of the most vaccinated per capita places on the earth.
So how are they going to hide all the deaths that are coming?
Nobody seems to think about that aspect of it.
Furthermore, the people who are running Israel, like Netanyahu, are globalists.
As we all know, war is good for globalists.
Whether they win, lose, or draw, they will make money.
And Netanyahu doesn't care about the average Jewish person.
If he did, he wouldn't have used them as human guinea pigs for that shot.
So, I mean, I hope that adds some perspective to it, because I tell you, I'm not buying the whole...
Well, we didn't know it was coming.
Our AI was...
You know what? A mouse can't fart in Gaza without the Mossad knowing about it.
Just saying. So, anyways, have a good night, man.
harrison smith
Well, thank you. You too. Yeah, it's...
I mean, I know... A lot of people think that, but again, maybe I just don't have the reverence for Mossad that other people do.
I think they can make mistakes and fall short as well.
And I think their arrogance may very well be their downfall, unfortunately.
And I do agree that the people that run Israel don't really care about Israelis, just like people that run America don't really care about Americans.
This isn't a matter of...
But hating the average Israeli, just like when we protest against the actions of the American government, it does not reflect on the average American.
It's in opposition to what many of us desire, and much in the same way that we here at Infowars advocated against war in Iraq following September 11th.
We were against full-fledged war in the Middle East following this terrorist attack.
How many times do we have to go down the same path?

Please spread the word about the broadcast.
It's how we bypass the sensors and the controllers and how we expose the plan to launch the new 9-11 inside America and Europe to bring us under the total police state control grid.
They're doing it with COVID. They're doing it with the climate change garbage.
They're doing it with the water power grab.
And now they're coming for all of our freedoms.
We've got to stop and we've got to recognize that we've got to wake up, we've got to say no, but it takes funds and money and word of mouth to run this operation in the face of these sensors and controllers.
So I'm counting on you to break the back of the sensors and the controllers by sharing the live links to the show right now and supporting the broadcast at Infowarsstore.com.
