WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:02.480
Seventy. You beat the Reds in
the World Series. They're going to show

2
00:00:02.520 --> 00:00:05.240
up tonight that the Reds are back
on the West Coast and more. But

3
00:00:06.040 --> 00:00:10.199
last night I had the occasion of
watching News Nation with Chris Cuomo, and

4
00:00:10.279 --> 00:00:13.279
I saw something for about ten minutes
that I'm going to remember for years,

5
00:00:13.640 --> 00:00:17.399
not for the rest of my life, and that is that Sheryl Sandberg,

6
00:00:17.519 --> 00:00:22.679
former Chief Operating officer of Facebook,
has done something that will stand the test

7
00:00:22.760 --> 00:00:27.440
of time for those who claim October
seventh never happened or there were terrible events.

8
00:00:27.800 --> 00:00:31.960
She put together documentary Screams Before Silence, as far as the numbers,

9
00:00:32.600 --> 00:00:37.200
hundreds of Jewish men, women and
girls and boys and children sexually rape,

10
00:00:37.280 --> 00:00:43.479
sexually mutilated, tortured, and the
same thing has happened before with those who

11
00:00:43.520 --> 00:00:48.840
have taken documentaries of the Holocaust.
To make sure that those in the future

12
00:00:48.880 --> 00:00:53.320
know exactly what was happened. And
Chris Cuomo of News Nation, welcome again

13
00:00:53.399 --> 00:00:56.079
to Bill Cunningham Show. And Chris, I want to get your perspective for

14
00:00:56.119 --> 00:01:00.399
those who may not have seen it. How would you describe the docum mentory

15
00:01:00.439 --> 00:01:11.879
Screams for Silence put together by Sheryl
Sandberg to brave effort by Samberg because there's

16
00:01:11.920 --> 00:01:18.840
so much built in resistance, because
this situation has become a political football where

17
00:01:18.920 --> 00:01:25.640
the reality is just one factor in
what people are choosing to acknowledge. It's

18
00:01:25.680 --> 00:01:29.439
good to be with you, Bill
Cunningham, thank you very much. But

19
00:01:30.799 --> 00:01:38.879
it is the worst of humanity that
she shows in this. And remember Samberg

20
00:01:38.959 --> 00:01:47.239
has a very specific mandate. It's
just the sexual violence, so it's not

21
00:01:47.840 --> 00:01:56.760
even just the burning, the random
multi bullet extermination of children and men that

22
00:01:57.079 --> 00:02:00.879
I have seen and others can seem
for themselves line if they want to go

23
00:02:00.920 --> 00:02:07.480
look, the footage is there because
the Hamas people and their adjuncts were bragging

24
00:02:07.480 --> 00:02:12.400
about it and putting it online,
and it is an important reminder, especially

25
00:02:12.840 --> 00:02:17.560
when the campuses, and I believe
eventually pockets in our communities are going to

26
00:02:17.560 --> 00:02:23.240
be shouting that Israel is the bad
guy in that October seventh was a propaganda

27
00:02:23.240 --> 00:02:27.560
move. I watched about ten minutes. It's hard to watch. It's kind

28
00:02:27.560 --> 00:02:30.240
of like watching a movie about the
Holocaust. Here. I tried to avoid

29
00:02:30.240 --> 00:02:35.919
going to the Holocaust Museum when I
went to Jerusalem last May, and I

30
00:02:35.919 --> 00:02:39.759
spent time in the Holocaust Museum in
Jerusalem. It was just an unforgettable experience.

31
00:02:39.800 --> 00:02:45.919
And I would imagine that this is
wrapped in the world of politics.

32
00:02:46.520 --> 00:02:51.840
And I don't think the average American
who's now protesting like crazy summer rioting.

33
00:02:51.919 --> 00:02:57.240
Some are protesting on college campuses.
What accept is true. What happened on

34
00:02:57.280 --> 00:03:01.360
October seventh to thirteen hundred two is
brutally slaughter, hundreds of rape, sexual

35
00:03:01.439 --> 00:03:07.159
mutilation of sex organs, rape,
then taken into holes. Still this,

36
00:03:07.400 --> 00:03:12.479
I would assume there's a few left
in Goazas somewhere living in holes. But

37
00:03:12.680 --> 00:03:17.879
she made the point that sexual violence
for male soldiers is happening throughout history.

38
00:03:20.439 --> 00:03:24.000
Look what the Germans soldiers did to
the Russian women and girls. Then when

39
00:03:24.000 --> 00:03:29.280
the opposite took place, the Russian
soldiers did exactly the same thing to every

40
00:03:29.319 --> 00:03:32.000
woman in Germany, every girl and
woman in Germany. What's happening, what

41
00:03:32.039 --> 00:03:37.159
happened in Bosnia, as you mentioned
Bosnia, what's happening right now in the

42
00:03:37.319 --> 00:03:43.960
Ukraine. The terrible sexual violence of
Russian soldiers against Ukrainian girls and women is

43
00:03:44.080 --> 00:03:46.599
unspeakable. And to document it and
say, you know, she's a tech

44
00:03:46.680 --> 00:03:51.479
savvy person and one of the saddest
parts. Chris Cromo, I'm wearing around

45
00:03:51.520 --> 00:03:54.479
my neck right now, Saint Christopher
Metal. I keep it right there over

46
00:03:54.520 --> 00:04:00.599
my heart and he's the patron saint
of travel and also no sudden death,

47
00:04:00.639 --> 00:04:03.240
but anyway, that's a different issue. And I keep it there. And

48
00:04:03.759 --> 00:04:08.919
she has an eighteen year old son
who wears a Star of David, and

49
00:04:08.960 --> 00:04:13.639
she said, you better take that
off, and I think explain that.

50
00:04:13.680 --> 00:04:15.959
And I guess the next step is
going to be instead of taking it off,

51
00:04:16.079 --> 00:04:19.560
maybe some on college campuses will force
Jews to wear the Star of David.

52
00:04:20.959 --> 00:04:25.160
That's where we are. First of
all, the good news is,

53
00:04:26.160 --> 00:04:33.040
at least for me, the US
versus Them ratio is overwhelmingly in favor who

54
00:04:33.160 --> 00:04:41.879
believe that Jews deserve protection, respect
and equal rights, and that these kids,

55
00:04:42.000 --> 00:04:47.000
many of whom are diletons, many
of whom are coming in just to

56
00:04:47.079 --> 00:04:56.040
create anarchy and chaos, many of
whom are just grabbing on to a cause

57
00:04:56.079 --> 00:05:00.120
and appropriating the suffering of a people
that they don't understand in the situation that

58
00:05:00.160 --> 00:05:05.519
they haven't studied. So for now, it's more fear than it is,

59
00:05:06.720 --> 00:05:12.279
you know, reality of actions.
But it's horrible to see. I hope

60
00:05:12.279 --> 00:05:17.079
that Jewish people double down on their
faith and that we start seeing more Guy

61
00:05:17.279 --> 00:05:24.199
signs, more stars of David,
and I have seen it in my own

62
00:05:24.240 --> 00:05:27.519
personal life. You know, a
lot of the family that I choose are

63
00:05:27.600 --> 00:05:31.720
Jewish. Two of my brothers in
law are Jewish. Now that doesn't mean

64
00:05:32.519 --> 00:05:39.160
that I can't cover this. It's
very difficult to see how Palestine. You

65
00:05:39.199 --> 00:05:43.800
know, I've been covering this for
twenty years and it's very hard to see

66
00:05:43.800 --> 00:05:49.079
the suffering. It's an unfair situation, it's an imbalanced situation. But here's

67
00:05:49.560 --> 00:05:55.560
what they're forgetting. Israel is protecting
itself and attacking its enemies. That's what

68
00:05:55.600 --> 00:05:59.279
it does. That's what it's always
done. That's what we do. That's

69
00:05:59.319 --> 00:06:02.079
what we've always done, just like
every other developed nation state. The part

70
00:06:02.079 --> 00:06:09.720
they're leaving out is that Palestine has
always been disregarded by the entire Arab community

71
00:06:09.959 --> 00:06:15.240
of nation states, except when convenient. Yes, there's nobody stepping up from

72
00:06:15.319 --> 00:06:17.040
that community and saying, hey,
you know what, let's get rid of

73
00:06:17.040 --> 00:06:21.519
the terror organization that's running this place, and we will sponsor free and fair

74
00:06:21.560 --> 00:06:28.920
elections there and we will boost the
economy so that it's not just Israel providing

75
00:06:29.160 --> 00:06:34.120
all of the oper city and infrastructure
to this place. Why don't they do

76
00:06:34.240 --> 00:06:41.480
that? Yeah, because they liked
this situation because they disrespect Palestinians and that's

77
00:06:41.519 --> 00:06:46.560
the dirty sea, and they love
that Israel's constantly at burden because they too

78
00:06:47.240 --> 00:06:53.199
believe that Israel shouldn't be there.
That's the truth. I speak the truth,

79
00:06:53.240 --> 00:06:56.360
and it's too complicated for people,
so they just pick winners and losers,

80
00:06:56.399 --> 00:06:59.240
you know. Chris Cuomo I spoke
to the mayor of Shiloh a couple

81
00:06:59.279 --> 00:07:02.040
of weeks ago, and he said, an unreported story is that there's tens

82
00:07:02.040 --> 00:07:08.879
of thousands of Israeli Jewish refugees right
now in Israel. And he also had

83
00:07:08.920 --> 00:07:13.160
a tremendous emotional and physical expense because
what's happening in the north end of South

84
00:07:13.439 --> 00:07:16.519
the country still is shocked in ways
they've never been shocked. But he also

85
00:07:16.600 --> 00:07:20.839
said that we have three legs on
the stool of our economy. Number one

86
00:07:20.920 --> 00:07:26.160
is tourism, number two is farming, and number three is tech. And

87
00:07:26.279 --> 00:07:30.720
right now Israel is completely out of
business. He said, every week,

88
00:07:30.839 --> 00:07:34.639
every month that goes by, we
lose billions of dollars in tourism. We

89
00:07:34.759 --> 00:07:40.319
lose billions of dollars in our farming
ventures. They've made the desert bloom,

90
00:07:40.639 --> 00:07:44.560
and we lose billions of dollars in
tech. That is the underpinning of our

91
00:07:44.600 --> 00:07:47.360
economy. And I think, and
this is my guess, you might know

92
00:07:47.480 --> 00:07:51.199
more that I thought in the Iranians, having sent this three and thirty five

93
00:07:51.240 --> 00:07:56.759
missiles ninety nine percent shot down,
than Israel proved they could defeat and attack

94
00:07:56.879 --> 00:07:59.959
military bases to tell them, look, we can do this and you can't

95
00:08:00.480 --> 00:08:03.360
that. Maybe the strategy now over
the next months, in the years is

96
00:08:03.399 --> 00:08:07.959
simply to bleed the Jews dry.
Just bleed them dry from the north,

97
00:08:07.279 --> 00:08:11.560
from the south, destroy the economy
completely, make it a place that no

98
00:08:11.600 --> 00:08:16.560
one can visit, and make it
a place where internally tens of thousands of

99
00:08:16.639 --> 00:08:24.279
Jews are displaced in Israel and putting
more harsh economic and emotional torment on the

100
00:08:24.319 --> 00:08:28.560
Israeli people. And that is an
underreported story of the economy normally. Sadly,

101
00:08:28.680 --> 00:08:33.440
like when America went through the Vietnam
War, our economy got better because

102
00:08:33.480 --> 00:08:37.840
we weren't being attacked here. But
in Israel, they're being attacked and they're

103
00:08:37.919 --> 00:08:43.320
shocked, and they're angry at the
IDF and some of them asad, and

104
00:08:43.360 --> 00:08:48.440
they're angry about the thirteen hundred that
were killed. They're angry about the massive

105
00:08:48.519 --> 00:08:52.919
rapes of girls and boys, the
sexual mutilation. They're angry at the fact

106
00:08:52.960 --> 00:08:56.879
that it appears America might be if
not turning on them, saying once again

107
00:08:56.919 --> 00:09:01.000
to the Jews, you can't win. The country in the world. They

108
00:09:01.000 --> 00:09:05.360
can't win a war is Israel.
LBJ said, you're not going to win.

109
00:09:05.679 --> 00:09:09.039
Nixon said, no, you got
to stop. And now Biden is

110
00:09:09.039 --> 00:09:11.440
saying, well, you can't win. If any other country had gone through

111
00:09:11.519 --> 00:09:16.000
on October seventh, eighth, and
ninth, whatever that Israel went through,

112
00:09:16.039 --> 00:09:18.519
they would fight to the death to
kill that enemy. But why is it

113
00:09:18.559 --> 00:09:26.519
that Israel is never permitted to win
a war? I think, as Jordan

114
00:09:26.559 --> 00:09:31.200
Peterson properly instructs, you've got to
avoid single factor explanations to complex situations.

115
00:09:31.759 --> 00:09:35.960
Is part of it that it's different
when it's the Jews. Yes, it's

116
00:09:37.039 --> 00:09:41.039
part of the reason why it's different
is that there is a bias against the

117
00:09:41.159 --> 00:09:45.799
Jews. Yes, Do I believe
it's the main thing? No? Not

118
00:09:45.840 --> 00:09:48.799
in America. That's for sure,
but then what is it? They are

119
00:09:48.840 --> 00:09:52.080
both David and Goliath. That is
the weird thing when it comes to the

120
00:09:52.159 --> 00:09:58.679
Jews. They are a minority.
They absolutely face a surrounding existential threat in

121
00:09:58.720 --> 00:10:05.200
a way no other country does.
Now you can say yeah, but and

122
00:10:05.240 --> 00:10:09.320
then fill it in with reasons why, the formation, the lines, whatever,

123
00:10:09.840 --> 00:10:13.320
but it's still true, and then
you have to add to it.

124
00:10:13.360 --> 00:10:20.320
They are also the mightiest military power, largely because of America's support in the

125
00:10:20.399 --> 00:10:26.039
area, so they are at once
the target and the toughest. So that

126
00:10:26.240 --> 00:10:33.840
is unique. But even still,
this is the second time this has been

127
00:10:33.879 --> 00:10:41.200
done to them in recent history.
Kissinger stopped Gold in My Ear from going

128
00:10:41.440 --> 00:10:46.200
into Cairo when they got attacked the
last time in seventy three, and they

129
00:10:46.240 --> 00:10:50.159
wound up being taken by surprise,
taking a lot of losses, then turning

130
00:10:50.200 --> 00:10:56.919
it around. They then pushed the
Egyptian forces back over the river, and

131
00:10:56.000 --> 00:11:00.879
then they were going to march to
Cairo and say no, now we control

132
00:11:00.960 --> 00:11:03.679
Egypt, so let's cut a real
deal because we don't want Egypt, and

133
00:11:05.320 --> 00:11:09.000
Er didn't allow it. Here again, Iran is the head of the snake.

134
00:11:09.039 --> 00:11:13.240
They'll cutting him if you want to
call out Joe Biden. You've got

135
00:11:13.240 --> 00:11:18.240
the border and you've got Iran.
Now, if and when we have a

136
00:11:18.279 --> 00:11:24.399
new president or if it's Biden again, whoever it is, cannot ignore the

137
00:11:24.440 --> 00:11:31.279
head of the snake. Iran has
been kicking our petuits for years now through

138
00:11:31.320 --> 00:11:39.200
proxies, and we are keeping Israel
from taking Iran on. That's why they

139
00:11:39.240 --> 00:11:46.480
didn't retaliate after those several hundred munitions
were sent because we told them not to.

140
00:11:46.279 --> 00:11:50.039
That's the only thing that makes sense. Why because we don't want the

141
00:11:50.080 --> 00:11:52.679
conflict neither. Just Trump, by
the way, and I get it.

142
00:11:54.360 --> 00:11:56.919
I get the calculus. Trump's calculus. Some people don't like it, but

143
00:11:58.039 --> 00:12:01.759
I get it. It's a very
raw What do we get out of it?

144
00:12:01.759 --> 00:12:05.120
Why would I go fight with Iran? What am I going to do?

145
00:12:05.120 --> 00:12:07.080
Do they have oil? Can I
take it? Do I want to

146
00:12:07.159 --> 00:12:09.840
run the place? If not?
Why am I going to go over there

147
00:12:09.840 --> 00:12:13.480
and see people die on my watch? Now? There are other people who

148
00:12:13.480 --> 00:12:16.120
will, especially in his party,
as you well know, a lot of

149
00:12:16.120 --> 00:12:18.720
conservatives would say, whoa, whoa, whoa. It's about American idealism,

150
00:12:18.759 --> 00:12:22.759
it's about partnerships, it's about you
know, there are a lot of rationale,

151
00:12:22.159 --> 00:12:28.080
he doesn't accept them. That's okay, because people make choices and elections.

152
00:12:28.440 --> 00:12:33.080
But Biden's rationale is hollow right now. It's we don't have any reason

153
00:12:33.480 --> 00:12:37.879
to leave them alone, except it's
we just don't want one more thing that

154
00:12:37.919 --> 00:12:43.120
may go wrong. So as a
result, Iran is able to terrorize that

155
00:12:43.399 --> 00:12:48.279
entire region. And sorry to overtalk
it, but here's my biggest point,

156
00:12:48.279 --> 00:12:52.039
which I'm saving for the last,
because I'm a fool. These campuses and

157
00:12:52.120 --> 00:12:56.600
what I believe was still into the
communities. I don't see it the way

158
00:12:56.639 --> 00:13:00.600
other people do. Okay, I
don't fear protest, I don't fear these

159
00:13:00.720 --> 00:13:05.639
kids. I don't fear what's going
to happen next. What I fear is

160
00:13:05.960 --> 00:13:13.879
who's planning it, who's paying for
it, and who's motivating these perverse ideas

161
00:13:13.879 --> 00:13:20.960
and exaggerations. There is a hidden
hand online, filtered through Iran, filtered

162
00:13:22.000 --> 00:13:30.559
through its proxies, TikTok, especially
funded mechanisms through cryptocurrency. They have been

163
00:13:30.720 --> 00:13:37.000
working the Muslim Brotherhood and all their
adjuncts for years to play on America's appetite

164
00:13:37.159 --> 00:13:43.919
for division internally, and that's what
we're seeing play out right now. Are

165
00:13:45.120 --> 00:13:50.559
pushing They are pushing it. When
they told us during twenty sixteen and twenty

166
00:13:50.600 --> 00:13:54.000
twenty, the Chinese, the Russians, it was easy to ignore the warnings

167
00:13:54.039 --> 00:13:56.720
because we were like, yeah,
but you're saying that Trump is a Russian

168
00:13:56.759 --> 00:14:01.639
agent. He's not a Russian agent. No, So we didn't listen to

169
00:14:01.720 --> 00:14:07.159
the other part, which is,
but they are using their troll farms and

170
00:14:07.200 --> 00:14:13.279
their fake accounts and their algorithms to
pump devisive rhetoric and make it seem like

171
00:14:13.279 --> 00:14:16.399
we're fighting with each other, which
then led to us fighting with each other.

172
00:14:18.519 --> 00:14:20.159
And it was true then, it
was true in twenty twenty, and

173
00:14:20.200 --> 00:14:24.639
it's true now and Iran is once
again the head of the snake. Christopher

174
00:14:24.759 --> 00:14:28.960
Ray warned us about this months ago, saying, hey, you know,

175
00:14:28.000 --> 00:14:31.960
this Middle East fighting, it's going
to cause a lot of internal turmoil because

176
00:14:31.000 --> 00:14:35.919
online there's a lot of cyber warfare. He was right, and these campuses

177
00:14:37.440 --> 00:14:41.720
are the fruit of that. And
remember, Johnny Walker Lynd, you and

178
00:14:41.720 --> 00:14:46.240
I are old enough to remounber that
was one. Yeah, they will create

179
00:14:46.559 --> 00:14:56.080
thousands of them that will work in
concert with these dirt bag Muslim extremists that

180
00:14:56.159 --> 00:15:01.000
are already here in the country waiting
for our opportunity. This is the opportunity.

181
00:15:01.519 --> 00:15:05.600
Who wouldn't want to do a Boston
style bombing in the middle of one

182
00:15:05.679 --> 00:15:11.360
of these protests, Kill all these
American kids, kill first responders, scare

183
00:15:11.399 --> 00:15:16.840
the hell out of everybody. That's
what I'm afraid of. I'm not afraid

184
00:15:16.840 --> 00:15:20.080
of protests, well, whether people
are right or wrong about what they're saying.

185
00:15:20.440 --> 00:15:24.000
I'm not afraid of our democracy being
an action, even when it's hard

186
00:15:24.039 --> 00:15:28.399
to hear and hard to watch.
I'm afraid of who's driving it and who's

187
00:15:28.440 --> 00:15:31.559
going to use it to their advantage. And lastly, Chris Cromo, the

188
00:15:31.559 --> 00:15:37.320
fact that Tehran has offered free scholarships
to these college kids to come to Tehran.

189
00:15:37.399 --> 00:15:41.799
I can imagine some multi colored co
ed with rings in her nose heading

190
00:15:41.840 --> 00:15:46.600
over to Tehran and pretend as if
she's a refugee from America. I would

191
00:15:46.639 --> 00:15:48.519
say, honey, the door swings
both ways, and don't let it hit

192
00:15:48.600 --> 00:15:52.000
you with a good lord, split
you you. If you want to say

193
00:15:52.000 --> 00:15:56.039
that Queers for Palestine is some sort
of a real thing, try that over

194
00:15:56.080 --> 00:16:00.159
there and watch what happens. And
Tehran is encouraging that they're funding it,

195
00:16:00.240 --> 00:16:03.840
they have the money to do it, they have the wherewithal. They killed

196
00:16:03.919 --> 00:16:08.960
hundreds of Gis American soldiers in Iraq
with the improvised devices, They're killing as

197
00:16:08.960 --> 00:16:15.120
many Jews as they can. And
for some reason we don't let Israel defeat

198
00:16:15.159 --> 00:16:19.720
Iran. We don't say if that
happened to if Mexico had sent in proportionally

199
00:16:21.039 --> 00:16:25.279
a bunch of savages to kill thirty
five thousand Texans and on the way out

200
00:16:25.279 --> 00:16:29.080
of the country picked up the freshman
class of the University of Houston and put

201
00:16:29.120 --> 00:16:33.639
them in whole somewhere in Guadalajara,
this country would declare war in Mexico and

202
00:16:33.679 --> 00:16:37.080
to obliterate the place, and we
got our we would win the war.

203
00:16:37.360 --> 00:16:40.440
Well, we never, whether it
was sixty seven, seventy three or now,

204
00:16:40.759 --> 00:16:45.840
we never allow Israel to finish off
their enemies. We never permit them

205
00:16:45.960 --> 00:16:48.440
to win a war. And that's
despicable. Well, Chris, we got

206
00:16:48.440 --> 00:16:55.000
to run great conversation, especially about
Sheryl Sandberg telling her eighteen year old son,

207
00:16:55.039 --> 00:16:59.240
get the Star of David off your
chest. And yes, obviously,

208
00:16:59.320 --> 00:17:02.960
and I don't Cheryl for that.
Any parent is going to be afraid of

209
00:17:03.000 --> 00:17:07.519
what the kids are exposed to.
But she has been a strong demonstrator of

210
00:17:07.519 --> 00:17:10.119
her faith in what she believes in
by taking on this project, and I

211
00:17:10.200 --> 00:17:12.200
was happy to give her the platform. Chris Como, thank you very much

00:17:26.319 --> 00:17:30.079
saying about the head of the snake. You must go there, and we

unclear to me. Bill Cunningham News Radio
