=== Austria's Pandemic Lockdown Strategy (07:47) ===

[00:00:00]  Rates remain too low in the small Alpine country.
[00:00:04]  They say it will ensure that Austria's hospitals are not overwhelmed with COVID-19 patients.
[00:00:10]  Health Minister Wolfgang Muckstein.
[00:00:13]  Whenever I hear health official, I assume we're talking about an idiot.
[00:00:19]  Like a professor of gender studies.
[00:00:22]  I just assume this is a fool.
[00:00:26]  Speaking in Parliament Thursday afternoon called the measure a big and for the first time also lasting step in Austria's fight against the pandemic.
[00:00:36]  This is how we can manage to escape the cycle of opening and closing of lockdowns.
[00:00:43]  Just lock down a significant percentage of your population.
[00:00:47]  I mean, if they have a low vaccination rate, it's a significant percentage of Austrians, right?
[00:00:54]  The measure...
[00:00:56]  No, yes, I'm sure.
[00:01:02]  Guess what party posed it, folks?
[00:01:05]  The way it's described by AP. AP is just another left-wing source of opinion.
[00:01:11]  The far-right Freedom Party.
[00:01:13]  I know nothing about the Austrian Freedom Party, to be honest.
[00:01:16]  But isn't it interesting?
[00:01:18]  Does AP ever describe any left as far-left?
[00:01:22]  Ever?
[00:01:23]  Ever, ever, ever, ever?
[00:01:25]  Is AOC or Bernie Sanders far left?
[00:01:29]  But the Freedom Party in Austria is.
[00:01:32]  Maybe they are.
[00:01:33]  Maybe they are.
[00:01:34]  I don't know.
[00:01:35]  But I don't believe it.
[00:01:37]  Do you now understand?
[00:01:39]  Well, wait a minute.
[00:01:43]  Aren't they stoking anti-non-vaccinated sentiments in Austria?
[00:01:48]  Only the right stokes things.
[00:01:51]  Get it?
[00:01:52]  They don't stoke on the left.
[00:01:54]  Isn't that great?
[00:01:55]  They're non-Stokies.
[00:02:00]  Accusing it of spreading deliberate falsehood about the safety and effectiveness of available...
[00:02:05]  How could you spread falseness about the effectiveness?
[00:02:10]  When everybody acknowledges now, it's not effective.
[00:02:14]  It doesn't prevent you from getting COVID. So, I have to be fair.
[00:02:20]  They say...
[00:02:22]  Well, it's true.
[00:02:23]  It doesn't prevent you from getting COVID. It prevents you from getting really, really sick and dying from COVID. Okay, that's what they say.
[00:02:32]  I just want to make it clear.
[00:02:34]  I'm committed to telling you the truth.
[00:02:37]  It has unfortunately become necessary to close this vaccination gap that still exists in Austria.
[00:02:46]  All right, we'll get some Austrians on.
[00:02:51]  You have to understand, in the name of safety, every other value is now jettisoned.
[00:02:58]  This is why we are fighting for the soul of America.
[00:03:26]  You should be able to share ideas without fear of being fired from your job or shouted down.
[00:03:35]  You are not to be heard.
[00:03:37]  This is one of the few things we have no precedent for in the United States.
[00:03:41]  You have the right to remain silent.
[00:03:43]  My son, his dreams are short forever.
[00:03:47]  We're so worried about other countries' problems and we don't even focus on our own.
[00:03:55]  Look for Salem Now in the App Store or go to SalemNow.com Did
[00:04:55]  that happen?
[00:04:57]  A lack of business.
[00:05:01]  Because of so much outpatient care and because people were healthier?
[00:05:06]  Correct.
[00:05:07]  Okay, thank you.
[00:05:08]  I want to take another call on that.
[00:05:10]  This is a very interesting issue here.
[00:05:13]  Bakersfield, California.
[00:05:14]  Stephen, hello.
[00:05:17]  Yes, I work for DAV, driving a van to West L.A. VA Hospital.
[00:05:22]  Excuse me, 2003, 2005, they reduced their beds about three-fourths.
[00:05:29]  One of the reasons was as the population grew older and more surgeries were needed, they made this, like the man said, an outpatient.
[00:05:37]  But what really happened is they couldn't do the surgeries because it's a money thing.
[00:05:42]  They want to keep the money for the VA research and not to help the elderly patients.
[00:05:48]  That's fascinating.
[00:05:49]  I've got to look into that.
[00:05:50]  That is completely new to me.
[00:05:54]  Rochester, Minnesota, where the Mayo Clinic is located.
[00:05:58]  Hello.
[00:05:59]  Hi, this is Daniel Van Dyke.
[00:06:01]  There are two main reasons for the reduction in beds.
[00:06:05]  One is that patients who are admitted...
[00:06:09]  People need to understand, and this is not necessarily wrong on the hospital's part.
[00:06:17]  they're not in the same position they were 20 years ago.
[00:06:20]  Music.
[00:06:50]  now.
[00:06:53]  There's about 57 Muslim states in the world.
[00:06:56]  There's one Jewish state.
[00:06:58]  The massive ingathering of Jews in the last 150 years back to the land is absolutely unprecedented.
[00:07:05]  They say that there's no greater sign of redemption coming than the Jewish people returning to the hills of Judea.
[00:07:11]  As a Christian, I've always supported Israel's claim to the Holy Land.
[00:07:14]  To me, the Palestinians were just getting in the way of God's plan.
[00:07:21]  300,000 Palestinians are unemployed.
[00:07:24]  In spite of all the years of conflict, there's hope here, if you know where to look for it.

=== Old Wall, New Borders (02:27) ===

[00:07:39]  The old wall randomly turns into a guardrail, followed by miles of open border.
[00:07:47]  The old wall is a very small part of the wall.
[00:07:52]  The old wall is a very small part of the wall.
[00:07:56]  That journey is extremely dangerous.
[00:08:00]  The seven-year-old girl died in the desert from the country of India.
[00:08:04]  A great pillar of the community was killed by a man who had been deported at least twice.
[00:08:09]  This little urn contains the ashes of my son.
[00:08:12]  His dreams cut short forever.
[00:08:15]  We're so worried about other countries' problems and we don't even focus on our own.

[00:08:32]  Judge Thomas, you solemnly swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth to help you God.
[00:08:42]  I was under constant attack.
[00:08:44]  You're not really black because you're not doing what we expect black people to do.
[00:08:48]  This is the wrong black guy.
[00:08:50]  He has to be destroyed.
[00:08:51]  So you'd still like to serve on the Supreme Court?
[00:08:53]  I'd rather die than withdraw from the process.

[00:09:09]  We all had something in common.
[00:09:11]  A lot of us were miserable.
[00:09:12]  We had no fathers in our lives.
[00:09:14]  This is how I began the life of crime.
[00:09:17]  I desire to have a father who would tell me that what I did was wrong.
