Willie Brock You by Choice Hotels, Acono Lodge and Roadway In Hotels are serving
up double points for every qualifying stay book at Choice hotels dot com. Now
here's the man who's been recognized as radio's best, the recipient of not one
but two prestigious Marconi Awards for his broadcast exodence, the one and only Bill
Cunningham. Hi, Billy Cunningham, the great American. And we had anticipated
by this Sunday night, we're about sixteen days into the vicious attack on October
the seventh, and at this point, said here at ten o seven a
pm Eastern time, there's a volley of shells kind of going back and forth.
But because of the visit in a few hours by the President of France
and McCrone, there's speculation that Joe Biden himself frequently speaking with Israeli leaders Benjamin
Netanyahu, is encouraging them not to defend themselves by attacking the terrorists on the
ground, because that's what they're doing anyway from the air. So a couple
of news events tonight is that, according to one cabinet official in Tel Aviv,
if Hesbela joins the war, the head of the snake will be targeted,
and Israel is promising to cut off the head of the snake and launch
a military attack against Iran itself if Hesbela, It's proxy in Lebanon, gets
involved in Israeli war with Hamas. Hamas declared war on Israel. Israel responded
the Nazis and the Japanese government declared war on America, and then we responded.
There's no equivalency. It's not like a cycle of violence going back and
forth that the Israel has been repeatedly attacked in its homeland over the last seventy
five years, and it just builds up one or waxes and waynes. When
I spent my time in Israel in May, about ten days there, I
was amazed about how peaceful and quiet. There's a border fence between the West
Bank and Israel itself, and there's a border fence that I viewed around Gaza.
But there was a sense by Israelis in May that they're kind of over
the hump. Every now and then a rocket, unarmed, undirected would come
out of Gaza, and every now and then in ISRAELI maybe heard or killed
by it, but it was generally about ninety percent of the time knocked down
by the arn Dome. It was perceived to be more or less in individuals
acting as vicious murderers do as opposed to the organized Palestinian Liberation Organization or the
Palestinian authority. Makmud Obas seemingly not involved, but who knows, and that
Hamas largely was sequestered behind that the great Wall. That was the thought,
kind of like America thought on September tenth, twenty oh one, it was
unthinkable that anyone could hijack four airplanes and fly three into the World Trade Center
two buildings and into the Pentagon the other one in Shanksville, Pennsylvania. It
was a failure of imagination. We didn't connect the dots. And I would
think, when this is concluded in the next six months to a year,
and pray to God it concludes with Israel winning. They are gods representative on
Earth along with the United States of America. At that point we can say,
okay, that israelis determine what happened. There was a sense the Masad
and all their spies and all their bond individuals and gods that would warn them
if there was some massive attack coming. According to one estimate, there as
many as three thousand terrorists who knew exactly which Israeli kibutz is, which is
communal living centers, the Israel Israel, the Israeli's head in southern Israel,
how to go, where to go, and what to target. According to
media accounts, there's about twenty thousand Gozins who came across the checkpoints every day
to work in Israel, picked up by buses and taken to their appointed task,
and they would work in kibbutzs and elsewhere and then go back. I
stayed at the King David Hotel in downtown Jerusalem. I was served by Palestinians.
They were all over the place. I didn't sense any danger whatsoever,
and I sense it was peaceful. And I like to interview people wherever I
go, and I would speak to Palestinians, and most of them had a
little bit of a chip on their shoulder relative to the Jews, but all
of them, to a person said to me, I'm happy to have a
job. Not too many jobs in the West Bank, not too many jobs
in Gaza. And so there was a sense that we're over the hump,
and maybe peace is breaking out, and the Israelis could worry about internal politics.
There's no political response to this other than to kill every Hamas terrorist that
can be located now. In the meantime, of course, civilian populations are
going to be negatively affected. One of the great comments, and I potted
this up from Gold to my Ear, which she commented many many years ago,
and she said the following, and I've replayed for you last Sunday summer
it. I want to give you the rest of it. She said in
the late nineteen sixties, go to my ear. Quote we can forgive the
Arabs for killing our children, we cannot forgive them for forcing us to kill
their children. We will only have peace with the Arabs when they love their
children more than they hate us quote unquote gold in my ear. And so
the Israeli attitude is, we don't want to do this. We don't want
to indiscriminately bomb anybody. We want to target the murderers, the rapists,
the thieves, the barbarians. And she made the point that it's unforgivable that
Hamas and other terrorists use their own families and children as human shields. I
compared to what happened in Germany with the Nazis in the thirties and forties.
There was not wasn't a thought given by any American general that in order to
win the war would have to obliterate German civilian populations that dressed in fire bombing
killed over one hundred thousand Germans, men, women and children who the men
tended to be old, the women and the children and the babies. And
America had a toe war with the Nazis, and the German people got in
the way. And when that happens, sadly, you don't target civilian populations,
but when used as human shields by the Nazis or by Hamas in the
same category in my book, you have to do what you have to do.
A Maas is a killing, barbaric machine whose goal in life is to
kill every Jew, every Infidel, wherever situated. Would you have any doubt
in your mind if tomorrow the Israelis would be completely disarmed and not be able
to defend themselves at all, would that bring peace or war? It would
be total obliteration of the Jews. If, on the other hand, by
some act of God Almighty, if every weapon of every description was taken away
from the Muslim terrorist, there would be peace. Israel wants peace, a
mass and Hesbellah, and they're ill, want nothing but war. You may
call them Isis, you may call them Islamic jihad. You may call them
Hesbelah, You may call them the Muslim brotherhood. You may call them Hamas
or the Taliban, or al Qaeda or Boca Haram, or come up with
another name. Over the last fifty years, at least beginning in nineteen seventy
two with the slaughter of those Israeli Olympic athletes, we have seen over fifty
thousand separate terrorist acts by these Muslim extreme groups, not by average Muslims,
not by Muslims living in the United States of America. I'm talking about that
part of Islam, isis Hesbela, Hamas, Taliban, Boca Haram, that
have committed fifty thousand more than that terrorist acts around the world and dozens up
to one hundred different countries, killing close to three hundred thousand people. These
acts occurred in Somalia, in Belgium, in Mali and the Philippines, in
Algeria and Jordan and Lebanon and Turkey, in Egypt, in Norway, in
Nigeria, in Afghanistan and New Zealand and the Maldives. Of course, Iran
and Iraq and Russia and Pakistan and India and England and France and the Netherlands
and Germany. Here in America and Spain and Canada and Saudi Arabia and Israel
and Syria, just go on. It's just as a cancerous philosophy loose in
the Islamic world that must be stopped otherwise it will tear down civilization. This
does not include Muslim Americans, who tend to be among the most family are
in it and patriotic that one can find. I have no issue whatsoever well
with about seven to eight million Americans or Muslims. They worship a different God
than I worship, but they would have nothing to do with terrorism in a
sense. These groups have captured countries like Iran and Iraq and Lebanon and Syria
and Jordan, and the leaders in these countries now don't have to worry about
the Arab street. They got to worry about the Arab basement. Because if
you're if you're President Ceci in Egypt, you better get on the side of
Amas. If you're a King Abdullah in Jordan, you better get on the
side of Amas. You better get in front of the mob, because large
numbers want to kill Jews, and America is wherever they can be located.
And we're in this war that started about fifty or sixty years ago and metastasized
in nineteen seventy nine. And Tehran Iran with the Ietola with the shaw taking
him down. And now these leaders, none are popularly elected. All are
either kings or military men that have seized power. God helped them. If
they get sideways with the mas or Hesbellah inside their own countries, they're gone.
And so when Joe Biden, frail and elderly, flies to Tel Aviv
to meet with Netanyahu, he had a scheduled meetings with King Abdullah and Sisi
and others, but they refused to meet with him, even though Israel they
had nothing to do with destroying that hospital. But by the way, the
building still stands. It was a misfired rocket. Even CNN came to that
same conclusion. But see, the truth doesn't matter. Don't bother me,
don't change my opinion with the truth. Unbelievable. I find it amazing that
the same crowd who questions whether or not babies were decapitate it and whether terror
even took place by Hamas with the evidence, they don't know about that,
but they can say quickly that Israel targeted a hospital quickly because one fits and
the other one doesn't fit. If it fits the opinion, we use it.
If it doesn't fit the opinion, in which case we don't use it.
So to me, there's not an equivalency. It's not a matter of
good and better. There's no sidelines between good and evil right now, at
least for fifty years, in all those countries by whatever Islamic terror name you
want to use. May I say again, Muslims in America, peaceful Muslims
in America, which is like ninety nine percent, have nothing to do with
guilt for any of this. I'm referring specifically to Hamas and Hesbalah and Isis
and Islamic Jihad and Taliban, al Qaeda, Boka and all the rest different.
But no other religion has put to death in horrible ways over the past
fifty to sixty years in over one hundred nations, three hundred thousand people and
more to come. And so Islam, shall we say, is not doing
a great job of policing itself. So let's continue. Now, Barbarians will
do what barbarians do. Hyped up on drugs, methamphetamine, other speed agents,
illegal drugs, about three thousand hamas terrorists cased the place, executed the
game plan, used paragliders in order to be head babies, rape women,
and kill about sixteen hundred Jews, and they got back with two hundred and
some hostages, which to them is gold. To me, this is really
a time for choosing between right and wrong, good and evil, and make
God bless Israel and what they must do. And Iran had better pay attention
because the two words never again were emblazoned in my heart when I visited at
the Holocaust Museum in downtown Jerusalem. Then spend an afternoon on top of Masada
when one spends time at the Holocaust Museum. And by the way, Israeli
soldiers after graduation from high school, every Jewish graduate must go to the IDF
and they spend one to three years, and before they're sworn in, they
spend a day at the Holocaust Museum. Because most of these soldiers to be
are eighteen, nineteen twenty years old, they were born in twenty two,
but they spend a day at the Holocaust Museum, and then they spend a
day on top of Masada, the mountaintop in southern Egypt in which a thousand
brave Israeli Zealots took their own lives rather than being enslaved by the Romans.
And they put their hand on the Bible and they say never again. And
so if Iran doesn't think that each that to Israel will respond to hesbela attack
from the north, they have they have a different answer coming because if one
hundred and fifty thousand rockets guide it and otherwise obliterate Israeli cities, Ayatola,
get ready to meet your maker, and those seventy two virgins, let's continue
the line becomes available, which she never does. Eight sixty six six four
seven seven three three seven. I'll try to get some a great guests in
this evening. I think I've been successful. Coming up later an hour or
so, we have John Lott about what's happening with the arm status of Israeli
citizens and how that played into what occurred. Also later on as Senator J.
D. Vance, junior Senator from the state of Ohio, I hope
after next November. He's the senior Senator in the state of Ohio. Senator
Vance will be here and also Steven mLOY of Junk science dot Com about how
the Biden policies about pipelines green energy electric vehicles is making America a weaker around
the world and precipitating crisis upon crisis. Also later on as the Great Tim
Graham a media research center that's Brent Bozell's group, The line becomes available eight
sixty six six four sevens seven three three seven, Bill Cunning and the Great
American with you every Sunday night. Later on, we're going to play about
a three minute cut from Bill Maher, who's an Ivy League graduate, the
left wing comedian from Hollywood, in which he takes apart the radical left college
campuses, among other things, calls them stupid and reactive. I would say
that Hamas have their own branches and wings all over major college campuses London,
Paris, New York, Chicago, Los Angeles. That's the Hamas wing of
the Democratic Party that is dominated by four clowns, the so called squad.
And it's sickening to watch what's happened to our college campuses. I can recall.
During the Vietnam War, I went to Xavier University in Little Cincinnati,
Ohio. The UC campus University of Cincinnati after Ken State blew up in the
Vietnam War, had buildings burned down and the administration building was occupied by left
wing students, all of whom needed a bath. And Father O'Connor walked around
the Xavier campus with large discharge slips in his hand. He said, any
of my students that act like the act that you see is going to be
expelled immediately. And people got to work and did their thing. That's not
the way college campuses operate today. In fact, the disgusting anti Israel protests
on college campuses in Europe and America throw a rather bright light on the bizarre
alliance between left wing activists, poorly educated with a high iq and on one
hand and militant Muslims on the other, when the two groups have nothing in
common. Nothing. For example, the left supports every aspect of transgenderism and
gay rights. What do you think militant Muslims do to transgender individuals and the
gay individuals? They throw them off the top of buildings. If you're lucky,
get thrown off the top of buildings. In Islami countries, you get
burned at the stake. But somehow the leftists on college campuses feel an allegiance
with Hamas. How does Columbia and Harvard have Hamas chapters in school? Where
are the adults? I has continued. We have two lines opened eight sixty
six six four seven seven three three seven. Bill cunning and the Great American
with you every Sunday night. Later on we're going to play a cut of
Bill Maher from Friday Night. He is he has more lucid thoughts than normal.
But going back to my point I made about five minutes ago, you
have the Muslim terrorists on one hand, then you have college kids left wing
activists on the other, and they have nothing in common. The activists here
are so stupid with high IQs. They don't understand what would in Muslim countries
headed up by Hamas or Hesbela do to a gay person or to someone who
claims their transgender. One of the ten requirements of believing in the leftist movements
is I certainly believe as one individual American that if you're gay, it's okay
with me. You don't need my permission, it's between you and your God,
whatever you want to be. No discrimination, no job discrimination, nothing
like that. That's not the way Hamas and Hesbela deal with gay individuals.
You'd be lucky in a Hesbela Hamas back territory simply to be thrown off the
top of a roof. That'd be a good thing, because the torture would
be unspeakable. The left also in America, as I do completely believe that
women should have equal rights with men and practically every area of life. My
wife has been a judge for like twenty five years. In fact, in
law school for the last twenty five years, the majority of graduates or female.
Most of those in college or university are female. Women have been accorded
equal opportunities in America. Is that the case with the Maas and Hesbela.
Do you think their women, their girls, their wives are truly equally with
men? Of course law, there's no relationship an abortion. How about abortion?
To a leftist in America, abortion as a sacrament in Islamic countries,
an abortion cannot occur because you're killing the unborn baby, the unborn child of
a Muslim man. No permission will be given. Women have no opportunity in
a Muslim country from Saudi Arabia to Jordan Assyria. So how come the left
in this country loves Amas and hesbela unbelievable the left, the left in America,
for example, believes in religious freedom or non religious freedom, in other
words, be whatever you want, their right to reject religion altogether. Absolutely
atheists agnostics in America. The left in this country says First Amendment. Absolutely.
How about hes bln A Moss. Do they believe in religious freedom?
They believe that heretics should be summarily executed. The left rallies against banning books.
That's exactly what militant Muslims do is banned books. The left in America
opposes the death penalty, and a Moss they practice the death penalty. Practically
everything the left in this country believes is opposed by radical Muslims. Right,
So how does one group support the other. It's because they're stupid, absolutely
stupid. All right, let's get into a little more Friday Night. Bill
Maher, who has more lucid thoughts than many, went on for about eight
minutes. We're going to play about three minutes of this because he got into
the course the area of bad language. So Danny Gleason, my producer,
hit it and finally neweral. As an Ivy League graduate who knows the value
of a liberal education, I have one piece of advice for the youth of
America. Don't go to college, and if you absolutely have to go,
don't go to an elite college, because, as recent events have shown,
it just makes you stupid. There are few, if any positives to come
out of what happened in Israel, but one of them is opening America's eyes
to how higher education has become indoctrination into a stew of bad ideas, among
them the simplistic notion that the world is a binary place where everyone is either
an oppressor or oppressed. In the case of Israel, oppressors being babies and
bubbahs. The same students will tell you that words are violence and silence is
violence. Were very supportive when Hamas terrorists went on a rape and murder rampage
worthy of the vikings. They knew where to point the figures at the murdered
and then it was off to ethics class. Now now, I recognize that
a certain amount of foolishness is expected of college kids, but mixing Jegermeister and
tomato juice isn't the same as siding with terrorists. Thirty four student groups at
Harvard signed a letter that said the apartheid regime is the only one to blame,
proving they don't know what constitutes apart that they don't know much of anything,
actually, but it doesn't deter them from having an opinion. They've convinced
themselves Israel is the most repressive regime in history because they have no knowledge of
history or even a desire to know it, and actual history doesn't come up
in their intersectionality of politics and gender queer identity class. Not to be fair,
at least five of the student groups have rescinded what they signed, saying
they didn't read the letter closely and they promised not to make that mistake again
after they graduate and start running the world. But I actually believed them that
they didn't read the letter closely. I think they scanned it, said it
was blaming Israel, and went back to surfing TikTok. Because college life today
is a day spa combined with a North Korean re education camp to daycare center
with the meal plan, except the toddlers can fire the adults, the fact
that college presidents, who usually loved to speak out about anything, couldn't find
their voice to condemn the worst attacks in the Holocaust. There's a lot about
who really can controls colleges and why if ignorance is a disease, Harvard Yard
is the wuhan wet market. There we go, that's Bill Maher. He
went on for another five minutes, using language inappropriate, but nonetheless, you
get the point. Where are the adults, Where are those in charge?
Where is the father O'Connor walking around campus saying, Look, we're not going
to support baby killers. We're not going to support any group that murders in
cold blood Grandma. And in fact, if you're that stupid, you don't
belong at Harvard. If you're that stupid leaf Penn State, if you're that
stupid, lou leave UCLA. We can't have you here because you're stupid and
you know nothing, and it's sick. And it's said when Bill Maher is
the one an ivy League grat or radical left wing extremists puts the cheese on
the cracker relative to where are the adults? They don't exist, They're afraid,
they're afraid of their own students. It's like a warden being afraid of
inmates. I got to be careful. It's like a mom and a dad
being afraid of the children. And right now we have dozens of college campuses
in which the administrations of each are afraid of what the student body might do.
God blessed Bill Ackman and others who are quit giving money to Harvard going
forward because they're run by idiots with a high IQ. And those who run
MSNBC and CNN and CBS News will soon look. I would assume most of
them went to an Ivy League school believe in the same kind of crap that
Bill Maher just discussed. It is unbelievable. You know the history of humanity.
It is the history of the highly grueling struggle of civilization to conquer barbarism.
And whether it's religion or laws or government have been established to try to
bring some semblance of order out of the chaos that is wicked and virtually uncontrollable
in the human heart. And at this point, if you're at a college
campus and some rally breaks out supporting Hamas or Hezbola or Boca haram or isis
get your kid out of that school and say I'm not paying for that.
Administrators. Administrators need to walk around with discharged slips telling these idiotic students at
Harvard and Columbia and Yale, you're hereby expelled, You're done. Go somewhere
else because you're expressing opinions supporting those who will skin alive a mother and expose
the father to that act and then pull the baby out of the stomach.
That's who you're dealing with here, the worst of the worst of the worst,
who would take two hundred and ten hostages as bargaining chips for what to
get more barbarians released who are arrested by Israel. There is not an equalization.
It is not a cycle of islands. It is a Western democratic state
trying to defend itself and about the worst part of the world where Hesbalah and
a Mosas and the Ayetola could push the button in a moment's notice and bring
the world into World War III. Now North Korea and China and Russia are
involved with warships in the Mediterranean. That this is so dangerous and so bad
that we need an FDR. We need a Ronald Reagan. Even if Bill
Clinton would be better than what we got. Now, this guy makes Jimmy
Carter look like Abraham Lincoln. And if you voted for him, and if
you're going to think I'm fourteen months voting for him again, I want you
to watch him try to read a teleprompter completely understanding who the other team is.
His mind did not operate to allow him to come up with the word
Hamas. He had to refer to the other team as if this was some
football contest between Michigan and Michigan State, which was forty nine zip. Now
let's continue, Let's take some calls. The line becomes available eight sixty six
six four seven seven three three seven, and it's going to Danny and Oklahoma,
home of the Cowboys and the Sooners. Danny and Oklahoma. Welcome to
the Bill Cunningham Show. Danny, go ahead. Thanks. Bill made a
lot of good points. And while they still hope for Bill Maher, it
sounds like you had a little bit of a transformation. Even he figured it
out, Danny. Even Bill Maher understands that you have fifty thousand college kids
protesting in favor of the activities of Hamas. We got a problem. Yeah,
well I got a couple of points I want to make, and they're
not related. But the first one with the war in Israel, I would
just and I agree with you like a lot of other real conservatives, is
that the US needs to just allow Israel and then y'all who let them prosecute
that war the way they see fit. Just like when we went into Afghanistan
and Iraq and now sending weapons over to Ukraine. Nobody tells us how to
prosecute, you know, those orders, So stay out of the way,
because I think Israel, once and for all they're tired of playing patty cakes
with these terrorists. And man, I don't know. I live in Cincinnati.
Across the river from US Ohio river is Covington, Kentucky. If Covington,
Kentucky every for the last fifty years lob shells into Cincinnati and sending pizza
parlor bombers and did horrible things to Cincinnatians, at some point Ohio would have
to go into Kentucky and destroy Covington. And I think it's despicable that our
President Joe Biden, who's a foolish, feckless individual, would tell Benjamin Netzan
Yahuo to be careful don't go. You've got to be restrained, because no
one said that the FDR, no one said that the Bush three Israel is
God's representative on Earth. Israel as a washing style democracy that has thirty percent
of its citizens or Palestinians doing quite well. And at some point Israel's got
to end this thing and win the war. I can imagine in nineteen forty
two or nineteen forty three, if somebody had said to FDR and a Georgia
Patten, look, let's have a ceasefire. Let's make sure Hitler stays in
power. We'll just negotiate with him down the road. How would that have
worked? Juh, Well, it wouldn't have. And so let ISRAELI,
let the israel leaves nip this in the bud once and for all, and
then the innocent Palestini, the innocent Palestinian people can truly have peace. And
then finally, let me just say this bill with I have to say this
about the World Economic Form and Unclaus Loob. You know when he makes that
statement about you will own nothing, you'll be happy. He needs to be
the first one in line to volunteer to give up all of his homes,
all of his real estate, his bank accounts, and all his liberal buddies
over in the Council on Foreign Relations and in our government, the politicians,
far lefties. I haven't heard any of them a volunteer to give up all
of their absets, Have you no any more than the elite, the left
wingers who have leer private jets flying all over the place, like John Kerrey
preaching to us about the price of oil and gasoline. They're hypocrites, every
one of them, and lunchbucket. Joe Biden is decapitating the middle class in
the United States of America, making it more difficult because of energy prices and
also because of interest rates that average Americans are in trouble. We know we're
in trouble because of Joe Biden, and really not so much him, but
Barack Hussein Obama and his alcolates, all of whom populate the federal government,
who make the decisions because Joe Biden cannot. He's foolish, and he's feckless,
and he's old. Let's continue with more forty nine minutes after the hour,
Bill Cunningham, the Great American with you every single by Billy Cunningham.
You know I like to think of myself as kind of a middle class American
and living out the American dream. I'm just dismayed. Everything seems to be
going the wrong way. We've been invaded by seven to ten million foreign illegals
called migrants. God knows their intentions. Last week we had on a guest
from Fair talked about something in the range of one hundred and seventy one different
countries, including hundreds from the Middle East. Single unattached men come across.
Don't know who they are. We have lawlessness and crime have reached new heights
in every major American city controlled by the Democrat Party, and our freedom of
movement, our rights are continually threatening the road at the traditional families under attack.
We have uncontrolled government spending. On September thirtieth, the budget deficit was
one point seven trillions, now thirty three trillion, on its way to forty
trillion, causing inflation to be unleashed and eroding. The credit worthiness of the
dollar to buy home today is eight percent thirty or fixed instead of a two
or three percent under the Trumpster, and public schools compensate for their failures by
lowering standards and I watch General Milly and other generals and admirals have gone woke
with DII policies that undermine morale and readiness of the US military, in which
they missed their enlistment quotas every quarter, because who wants to join a military
defending such a horrible, racist place as the United States of America. And
the Democrat Party has brought disgrace to our great country by criminalizing speech and politics
and attempting to imprison a former US president and leading opposition leader. And right
now, the Trumpster is the nation's most popular leader. We want to elect
him, but we can't because he might be locked up in federal prison.
And the Democrats will not stop, so they must be stopped at the ballot
box. It is sick, and it's sad what's happened. And as an
average American living I think an average life, I have more trepidation going forward
now than I've had at any point in my life. I thought nineteen sixty
eight, when I was a very very young man, was horrible. But
at least then we knew that North Vietnam wasn't going to overwhelm the United States
of America. But I do believe that China, I watched sixty minutes tonight.
China is hooking up with Silicon Valley and it is frightening what they have
planned for the United States of America. Frightening. And you have college campuses
as Hamas chapters erupting in protest against the Israelis, defending themselves who've been viciously
attacked repeatedly by Muslim terrorists. And in a sense, Muslims themselves are imprisoned
by the philosophies of Hamas and Hezbola. They must be freed. So let's
continue. Coming up, I'm gonna put a call into John Lott, who
talks about Israelis that have been unarmed and what's happening in this country. Later
on as US Senator JD. Vance and also Stephen Malloy to talk about energy
policy and how Joe Biden is destroying the middle class. Bill Cunningham, the
Great American with you every Sunday night, Willie brough you by Choice Hotels,
Acuno Lodge and Roadway in Hotels are serving up double points for every qualifying stay
book at Choice Hotels dot com. Now he's the man who's been recognized as
radio's best, the recipient of not one but two prestigious Marconi Awards for his
broadcast excellence. The one and only Bill Cunningham, all Billy Cunningham, the
great American. Of course, John Lott worked in the Department of Justice,
written many books including More Guns, Less Crime and Advised Against Guns and Freedom
Nomics, and so much more as an expert when it comes to economic matters
and gun rights and those kinds of things, and also concealed kerry and matters
of that type. And John Lott, welcome again to the Bill Cunningham Show.
And John, I read with interest you sent me several days ago a
column or something relative to what was happening in Israel and why it was somewhat
easy, which is disgusting to have these kibucha's, which was also very similar
to a commune type living to kill so many people and with their permission.
I like to relate to the American people my experiences in Israel in May,
and it may shed some light on that opinion. Well, sure, thanks
for having me on, John Lott. I spent a lot of time in
Israel, and Jerusalem is filled with Ouzzi's and submachine guns held by the IDF.
Felt as safe as in our mother's arms. We stayed in downtown Jerusalem,
went to the south to Messade, to spend time in Tel Aviv,
three or four other Israeli cities. And when I travel I like to interview
people, which is kind of my thing. And I asked some Israelis how
difficult or how easy is it for someone who's an Israeli citizen to have a
firearm in your home because no one was carrying except the military, and it
was very difficult. Well, one person told me, an editor of a
newspaper, that less than two percent of Israeli adults have the opportunity or right
to carry a gun. There's a process involved, and it was thought that
we're safe. And so one of the reasons I think you pointed out to
me is that it was somewhat easy for these murderers and rapists hyped up on
drugs to kill so many. Is that many Israelis did not have weapons in
their own home, and those few kibbutz's and communal living areas that did have
them had a much better result. So can we relate something about Israel to
America and how it should have been required all along for those who had been
in the IDF, which is everyone after high school for one to three years
to be able to carry a weapon and keep one at home. All right,
Well, Israels had really major changes in their gun control laws over time.
Before nineteen seventy two, civilians weren't allowed to carry, and Israel kind
of learned the lesson the hard way that they were simply non enough police that
they could put or military they could put on the street to cover all the
targets that these terrists have real tactical advantages. If you have one officer on
a bus and you have a terrorist, the terrorists can wait for the officer
to leave, or they can go and leave the bus themselves and take another
target, or they can try to take out that one officer themselves, and
once if they do successfully take them out, then they have free reign to
go after the other people on the bus. In seventy two they changed it
to they realized that they didn't have an infinite amount of money to go and
cover all the possible targets, so they started letting civilians be able to go
and carry, and in many years after that they had as high as fourteen
percent of the adult Jewish population being able to go and carry, and it
really changed the tactical advantage there that the terrorists has had. I mean you
you know, in the United States we have over eight percent of the adult
population with a concealed carry permit. In many states it's like ten percent or
more. You go to a restaurant or a movie theater or a grocery store
and it's very likely that somebody's next to you and you would never know.
And the same thing is through with the terrorists there. They didn't know who
it was that they had to worry about it, and it made the job
even of the police safer. Unfortunately, Israel's had pretty much the same debate
over gun control that we've had here in the United States, and in very
recent years they've reduced it to only about three percent of the adult Jewish population
having a permit. Net Yahoo, when he formed a government at the beginning
of the year, wanted to change that. But you know, even he
ran into difficulty with only the day after they had this attack that they loosened
up the rules and make it easy again or easier again for a lot of
people to carry. You know, I'm sure they wished that they had changed
it a week earlier or a month earlier than they did. There would have
been a lot fewer casualties because you know, the military only was able to
arrive after seven or nine hours or so after attacks were occurring in different parts
of the country. You can only imagine how that music festival could have turned
out very differently if you know some of the people there were caring concealed hand
guns were able to use it, which surely at least would have slowed down
the attack and given many people a chance to escape. And what happened.
I talked to emailed with a friend of mine in Israel that what happened is
that and I sensed that when I was in Israel in May, and that
is that there was a sense we're kind of over the hump. Every now
and then there's a rocket comes over from Gaza. It's shot down by the
Iron Dome. Not much as happening on the northern border hesblaz under control,
a lot of guns everywhere. It was a sense, okay, take a
breath, it's peaceful. And what happened is that there were about twenty thousand
Gazans who every day went through the checkpoints to work in Israel, which is
good for both societies, and they took a lot of money back to Gaza.
And what happened sadly, a few of those individuals kind of developed diagrams
and worked with Hamas to tell them where the important facilities were in the areas
in which they were employed. And so Israel tried to be the good neighbor,
say, you know, let's let's work with them, Let's get them,
get them paid. And when you see this morning on some of the
talk shows, you had the diagrams of the terrorists, the murderers and the
rapist. They knew exactly where to go because seemingly employees of the Jewish state
living in Gaza told the terrorists what was going on, where things were located,
who didn't have guns, who had guns because that's where they worked.
And I watched your testimony John Lott on YouTube on Honor about December the fifteenth
of last year, in which Sheila Jackson Lee asked you some questions. I
wish I could get the whole back and forth, but you made the point
that ninety four percent of mass public shootings in America occur or guns are banned.
Well, the bad guy is picking that spot and the analogy is they
knew that those at the music festival likely were unarmed. Very few Israelis have
a concealed carry permit and very few have a weapon at home. So the
two issues here and there are kind of related. Right. Look, yeah,
these attackers may be crazy in some sense, but they're not stupid.
You know, if you're talking about mass public shootings in the United States,
their goals to get media coverage, and they know the more people they kill,
the more media covers that they're going to get. And so if they
go to a place where victims can't defend themselves, they're going to be more
successful. But you know, one of the things that outrageous me is just
how the media refuses to go and cover the parts of these diaries and manifestos
for these mass murders where they talk about why they pick the targets that they
do, because time after time they explicitly talk about going to places where they
know their victims can't defend themselves. You look at the Covenant School shooter in
Nashville in March this year. That person there in their diaries, apparently,
according to the Nashville Police Chief, we're going to want to attack a mall,
but had decided not to attack the mall because of armed security that was
there that people were allowed to carry, and instead when after the school because
they thought it was a soft target. Look at the Buffalo mass murderer last
year. He spends great detail explaining he wanted to go after a target where
he knew his victims wouldn't be able to go and have guns for protection.
You just see that time after time on our website at crimeresearch dot org.
We have detailed discussions of manifesto after manifesto or diaries where these killers are very
explicit, and I want somebody to explain to me why the media doesn't consider
it news works to quote those parts of their manifestos and diaries where they explained,
don't we want to know why these killers pick the targets that they do.
Yeah, I'd like to know because that that is important repertorial, objective
data that should be published all across America. But with our bought and paid
for left doing Marxist media, they're not going to report something that fits outside
of their own political tribes, which has left wingers. For example, in
Israel, the same people who refuse to believe hamas engaged in ghoulish behavior,
including the beheading of babies. Despite photographs and eyewitness testimony. He immediately believed
that Israel blew up the Baptist hospital in Gaza. Whatever fits they run with.
If it doesn't fit, they ignore it. It's not a story.
And I like you, John Lott, I'm driven to near madness by the
idea that the safest place to be is in at our NRA convention, the
most unsafe place to be is in a gun free zone, and I see
it exhibited all over the world, but the media will not use that as
a fact. Plus you at Crimeresearch dot org, five hundred thousand times a
year or more, a good guy with a gun stops a vicious attack of
one type or another. None of that's ever news doesn't happen. So I
mean the media affects the debate in many different ways. My guess is the
gun control debate that we have right now would be dramatically different if some of
the cases where civilians use guns to stop what otherwise were would have been mass
public shootings would get news attention. That the attacks that we see occur keep
on occurring in places where guns are banned. You know, the media if
they just would mention those types of things once in a while. You know,
there's so many biases, Like given the impression that the United States is
somehow unique in terms of mass public shootings, nothing could be further from the
truth. The United States is way below the world average. There are many
countries in Europe that have higher per capita rates of mass public shootings than we
have here in the United States. But you know, and to some extent,
it's understandable if you have an attack in the United States that gets a
lot more news attention than an attack that occurs in another country, And I
can understand it. But then when politicians go out and say that somehow we're
unique that other countries don't experience these things, you would think that there'd be
a fact check or something that would go and correct that. Some of the
places Mexico is unbelievable, off the charts, Sweden and Norway off the charts.
I hear democrats say all the time, you know, we seem to
be the only country in the world that has all these mass shootings. Well,
number one, we have three hundred and thirty five million people, maybe
three hundred and fifty million people, we're not in the top ten per rata
when it comes to mass shootings, but it's not even close. But the
media cannot report that because it's against what they want to do. Now.
Secondly, you have a column up at the Federalist FEDS, which is Department
of Justice want the Supreme Court to let judges trip gun rights even when there's
been no crime, which is consistent with Joe Biden and Barack Obama. I
mean, Barack Obama's politics sickens me. I can still hear him saying how
come we're the only country in the world with mass shootings? When either he
knows something different, in which case he's lying, or he doesn't know,
in which case he is a fool. But nonetheless, explain your article as
the Federalist. OK, well, there's a Supreme Court case that's going to
be heard oral arguments on November seventh, and what it it's called Raheemi,
and what it deals with is essentially, what standard of proof do you have
to have to be able to take away somebody's ability to have guns? So
you have two possibilities. You have a criminal case where you have to have
proof beyond reasonable doubts. You're like ninety eight percent certain that the person's guilty,
or you can have a civil case where you just need the preponderance of
the evidence, which is like fifty point one percent us forty nine point nine
percent whether the person did the bad deed or not. And there's a federal
law from nineteen ninety four that allows guns to be taken away with just a
civil case, with just the preponderance of the evidence, even without a hearing,
even without the person being able to have a lawyer to go and represent
them. And there's a case involving this guy from Texas who's a bad guy,
and there's no doubt about it. There were lots of violent crimes that
he had committed. He was a drug dealer, but he wasn't prosecuted for
those crimes. There was no large bail to keep him in jail for the
crimes that he was committed. In fact, I can't see any bail at
all. And yet rather than going and saying, you know, we should
have taken away his guns based on him committing these felonies, he ended up
having a restraining order put against them that took away the gun, but he
didn't have a lawyer to represent him. And you know there's this old saying.
You know, bad cases make bad law, and you know the issue
is, well, you have this one bad guy here, and you know
everybody would want to take his gun away. But let's take it away by
enforcing all these criminal cases that could have been brought against him, rather than
using this civil thing, because you're going to run into situations where innocent people
because of the very low standard of evidence. So let's say you are facing
one of these restraining orders. It may cost you ten thousand dollars in terms
of your lawyer. If the only thing that really bad happens to you is
that your gun would be taken away, you may want to keep your gun.
Is it really worth one thousand dollars to go and hire a lawyer just
to make sure that you're well represented in that case? Most people would say
no, it doesn't make sense. Well this is this is the Department of
Justice again, and Obama is more in charge and all of his alcoholtes than
Joe Biden, who's frail and elderly. I mean, the OJ's run by
by Mary Garland. It's not really run by Biden. He puts a lit
on things by eleven o'clock in the morning. Well, John Lott, we
got to go, but love having you on today to talk about this,
because armed protected is much better than unprotected dancing at a rave where no one
has a weapon to protect themselves. And I don't mean by any way the
innocent victims are to blame. They're not. The purposeful killing of those people
was disgusting, but a couple of Kibbutz's that had guns in the homes were
passed over because of the return fire. And if you had a few hundred
people returning fire, the outcome would have been terrible, but nearly as bad
as a turnout to be. Crimeresearch dot Org. John Lott, once again,
thank you for coming on the Bill Cunningham Show. Thank you, John,
Thank you for being there. Bill God bless continue if a line becomes
available. Eight sixty six six four seven seven three three seven Bill cunning In
the Great American with you every Sunday Night by Billy cunning In the Great American
and coming up next to as a US Senator and at a Great American jd
Vance. Senator jd Vance is going to react to what Biden said on Thursday
night and more. John Lott is a reservoir of great objective information. Two
things are shocking to me is Number one, you will never have the media
speak truth about mass shootings in this country because it runs contrary to what they've
been told and believed from their Ivy League colleges. The past five or ten
years, seems like no other country in the world has mass shootings. Well
fact no matter is America is not in the top ten, the top twenty.
It's unbelievable how many other countries have much more mass shootings than we have.
Go to crimeresearch dot Org. And secondly, at least five hundred thousand
times a year, a good man or a good woman with a gun stops
what's occurring and stops crime from occurring. We still haven't seen the full manifesto
from Nashville. It's being litigated. I guess he was the transgender individual that
seemingly obviously had some profound mental difficulties who shot up that school, killing innocent
people. So the transgender manifesto is not published, but I would imagine the
police chief in Nashville made the quick comment that he was he spent time going
to a shopping mall, but there was an armed security guard there so he
went to the Covenant School. Unbelievable by coming up next to his Senator jd
Vance about his reaction to the comments of Joe Biden on Thursday night. At
one point he read the prompts on the teleprompter, which is emphasis and not
giving us a babbled mumbling, stumbling and fumbling. I can't imagine one of
the world's despots looking at that performance by our president comes away thinking that guy's
on top of his game. Got to worry about him. Let's continue with
more Senator jd Vance's next. Bill Cunningham, the Great American live with you
every Sunday night. Senator jd Vance, Welcome again to the Bill Cunningham Show.
And Senator, first of all, can I get your reaction to the
President's speech spending another one hundred billion dollars of a new credit card. We're
going to open up and max that out quickly, and whether or not than
any restraints are put on the money's given to the Ukraine or to Israel.
First of all, Senator, what is your reaction to the President's speech?
Well, first of all, I thought it was a disgraceful speech, and
I don't say that lightly. Willie. I watched show Biden give speeches for
a couple of years. I've been unhappy with a lot of them, But
yesterday I think he crossed a totally new line of grossness. So we have
to remember, of course, that our Israeli friends just had the worst terrorist
attack in their nation's history, which is saying something fifteen hundred people dead,
some of them Americans, of course, most of them are Israelis, and
Joe Biden basically tried to use the Israeli tragedy to sell something thousands of miles
away, which is further funding for his Ukraine conflict. Now we have to
remember, of course, that the Ukraine War is fundamentally different from the Israeli
conflict. It involves different actors, it involves different American national security interests.
The weapons the Israelis need actually very often are the same weapons that the Ukrainians
need. So these policies are in direct conflict with one another. And he's
literally using dead Israeli citizens to sell the Ukraine policy. I think it's disgusting.
I also think that, what you know, there's something weird going on
in the American left, And I would has said this twenty years ago,
even but every time a great tragedy happens, they have to somehow assume that
their own civilization is the bad guy. So we're dealing again with a terrible
terrorist attack for our ally Israel, and Joe Biden is droning on about Islamophobia,
which I'm sure happens in a country of three hundred and thirty million people.
But the idea that that is a major problem in America today or was
a major problem twenty years ago, is ridiculous. Why do these guys have
to respond to tragedy by blaming their own country. I don't get it,
and it's just something else that drives some how disconnected. This guy is Senator
Vance. There appears to be Hamas chapters on various college campuses. Hezblah has
taken over control of much of other college campuses and universities. They seemingly advocate
the murder and rape of Israeli citizens. The speech of Joe Biden should have
spent most of the time speaking about Iran. Iran is the head of the
snake and some of their Alkalites and Hesbla and a Moss and all over the
Middle East. The problem is Iran thirty three months ago. Iran was on
its back. Thirty three months ago there were protests and riots and demonstrations in
Tehran, and all of a sudden, they know that they went through four
years of the Trumpster denying them ability to participate in economic markets. You couldn't
sell oil. America was energy independent. In fact, we were exporting oil
for profit, not importing it. And so why didn't the president talk about
much in a Reagan fashion? And even Bill Clinton could give a speech if
he had to. The speaking skills of this president are non existent because of
his mental deficiencies. But isn't the major problem unannounced by this president is Iran
and what they seek to do, and not necessarily anyone else. Iran is
the problem in the Middle East. Correct, That's exactly right, Willie.
Iran is the problem. Of course, he didn't mention China either, but
we know the the Iranians are supporting Hamas. When Joe Biden frees up six
billion dollars of Iranian money, which he did just a couple of months ago,
we know that a lot of that money will eventually flow to terrorist activity.
And the reason he didn't talk about it, Willy, I think it's
because it opens up such an incredible line of attacks for Biden's own policies.
The guy can't talk about Iran because if he does, then everyone will say,
well, hell, the Iranians are your problem. You gave them money.
So it just goes to show that unless you show proper leadership, you
open America up to a number of problems. The other thing we have to
talk about Willie in what I criticized Joe Biden for giving the Iranians six billion
dollars unfreezing six billion dollars of Iranian money. The pushback that I get as
well, Biden has guaranteed that this will only be used for humanitarian purposes.
Well, that's very kind of the Iranians to promise that when we give them
six billion dollars, they're only going to buy food, medicine. But even
if we that they kept that promise, Willy money is fungible. If I
give you one hundred dollars and you go and buy your office lunch, that
frees up one hundred dollars you can spend on other things. And this is
the issue with giving the Iranians so much money, is that we free up
their resources to spend on terrorism. They're the world's largest state sponsor of terrorism.
Biden has to get serious about Iran, and until he does, the
Israelis won't be safe, but more importantly, American citizens all across the world
won't be safe. Senator Vance, I watched one of the morning shows,
and the number of oil revenues in the last thirty three months to Iran is
in the range of one hundred billion dollars. So the six billion supposedly is
sitting in an account and cutter which I cut her. Of course, host
a moss leaders and opulent a glory. But nonetheless the six billion is a
tip of the iceberg because of the policies of Joe Biden make an America energy
subservient to Russia and to Iran. Is that Iran has an extra one one
hundred billion dollars in oil revenues they otherwise would not have. And secondly,
can you make the moral equivalents that you have to package these things together.
We have to open up a new credit card and give tens of billions to
the fight against Russia in the Ukraine. We have to give tens of billions
of dollars to Gaza Palestinian for quote humanitarian purposes, we have to give more
money to Jordan. When King Abdullah wouldn't even meet with our president, we've
got to give more money to Israel. In other words, number one,
do we have the money? Do we have just an extra one hundred billion
sitting around? And number two is there an equivalence between Ukraine and Israel?
Well, no, there isn't an equivalence, William, this is the problem.
But let's just focus on the numbers here, right. So, look,
we don't have the money. We need to be much more careful with
the resources that we spend. But I do to support helping the Israelis out
because when one of your most important allies face is a terrible terrorist attack,
I do think it's important for us to step up in the same way that
we would expect people to step up, for example, after nine to eleven.
Now here's the thing, though, Willy, excuse me. Israel is
asking for a few billion dollars. So the President sent us a supplemental budget
request to the tune of one hundred billion dollars. The overwhelming majority of it
is going to Ukraine, which is another reason why connecting Ukraine and Israel in
this moment of crisis is extra disgraceful. He's not even giving the Israelis that
much money compared to what he's giving Ukraines. The Ukrainians will get about fifteen
times more money out of this package than the Israelis, So we know what
he's doing. He knows that Israel is popular in America. His Ukraine boondoggle
is not popular in America. He's trying to use Israel to provide political cover
for Ukraine. It's really disgraceful stuff, Willy. But to your point,
we do not have one hundred billion dollars to throw to Eastern Europe right now.
And the final point I make here, the issue you raised about oil
prices is so important, Willie, because look, obviously it hurts American consumers
when we're paying more the pump, when we're paying more to heat our homes.
But when we empower the world's oil regimes, that sends them billions of
dollars that they wouldn't otherwise have to spend on terrorism. So not only is
he making all of us in America poor, he's making the worst people in
the world richer, and he's making the world more dangerous in the process.
It's a very very bad combination if you're an American citizen who just wants to
live in comfort and security in your own country. I read a column Senator
JD. Vance that this is the most perilous time America has been in since
the nineteen thirties. The column points out that Hesbelah is not the Hesbelah of
old, that Hesbela has one hundred and fifty thousand missiles and rockets pointed at
every major Israeli city. They have forty thousand bloodthirsty terrorists ready to invade the
north the circumstance, and that Gaza has the Israeli army, the IDF tied
down. They got their hand they they got their hands full. And so
when you look at the Hesbela launching one hundred and fifty thousand missiles artillery shells
devastating Tel Aviv in every major Israeli city, you have Vladimir Putin has just
left communist red China shijiaoping. They had a big powwow. You have North
Koreans supplying Hesbela and Hamas with large armaments because they get the cash from Iran
that we've given them. Because of the oil prices, that Iran is flushed
with money. The North Koreans are now involved, the Russians are involved,
the Communists, Red Chinese are involved. In the Middle East. So called
our friends, whether it's Egypt or Jordan, are not meeting with our so
called president. You pull it out together, and then you have in the
Congress and at least in the House, nothing but chaos. You have the
media launching on conservatives everywhere you've been their vicious repertorial attacks because you're not bending
over completely when it comes to aid to the Ukraine. Just inside baseball,
you came to politics horizontally and not vertically, as kind of a normal guy.
And it's it's enlightening and freshening to me that I've been at this for
about forty years. And normally when a new guy comes to politics, they
get they get stuck in the swamp with raising money and having fundraisers and listening
to the Washington elite and the Washington postcurring favor. And you're like a fresh
voice because you're not in the You're you're in the swamp, but you're not
of the swamp. Inside baseball, when you talk to fellow senators, is
there a real fear that America is being sucked into World War three. Look,
Willie, I hate to say it, but but yes, there's a
very precarious sense among people that I trust you're right, WILLI. I try
to stay apart from the swamp as much as possible, and among the best
and smartest people in Washington, there is a recognition number one, that we
are ruled by idiots, and we're orl by idiots. In a moment of
extreme crisis for the world, we have to be careful of your WILLI is
to recognize that we are being stretched very thin, and our enemies recognize this.
And unfortunately we have built a world system of alliances where we don't really
have allies, Willy. We have client states. Think about how little the
Europeans are doing in Ukraine. Even if you support the Ukrainians, why aren't
the Europeans doing more because than their backyard. So we have a lot of
dependent nations. We have very few real allies. Israel's actually one of our
few real allies in the world, people who actually step up and take care
of themselves. But also where we share interests and values, and I think
what we need to do, Willy to really protect our interests over the long
term. Is we need to recognize that we need real allies out there.
I think India could become a very important ally of the future, but Joe
Biden's policy is pushing them more into the arms of the Russians of the Chinese.
I think that we could have some very serious ally in Africa, Nigerian
and so forth, but again, the Chinese are cultivating relationships in Africa.
This is a period that's going to require real statesmanship, Willi, You're right.
The closest comparison we have is the nineteen thirties, and we got out
of that crisis because we had real leadership on both sides of the Aisle.
We're gonna need that over the next ten to fifteen years because this is a
dangerous time for our country. But look, I'm an eternal optimist about our
country, Willy. I think we need statesmen right now, and I'm gonna
try as much as possible to play my role. All right, Senator jd
Vance, thank you very much. It would have been refreshing if Biden has
spoke about the southern border. When Islamic terrorists are coming across the southern border.
It would have been interesting to say, Look, my policy and energy
dependency is now over. We're gonna pump, we're gonna drill, we're gonna
drive Iran into the bankruptcy court with the money. We're going to keep them
out of international monetary systems. None of that happened. If you don't support
him in the Ukraine, guess what, you're a putent apologist. And I
didn't see the the great ideas about our great friend Israel, who must survive,
they must exist. There's two of God's representatives on mother Earth, that
is the United States of America in Israel. And when we have a mentally
deficient president not speaking about Iran, and somehow we've given one hundred billion dollars
to Ukraine, that's not enough, and he's going to hook the Israeli aid
and the Ukrainian aid also aid to everyone else when we don't have the money.
It's sickening. And Senator jd Vance, once again, thank you for
coming on the Bill Cunningham Show, and please stay true to your principles that
you went into office with. Thanksfully, take care, all right, God
bless you. Let's continue. That's Senator jd Vance and the barbarians are at
the gates. It's obvious if we had a functioning president, we would shut
down the southern border. Send the army in this country to the southern border.
It must be stop what's happening there. Secondly, we must drill and
pump oil and use pipelines to crash the price of oil through the base so
that Ron and others our enemies Russia are not getting oil revenues. That indirectly
and directly, every policy of Joe Biden has enhanced the power of Russia and
Iran at our expense, and that is sickening. Bill cunning into Grand American
live with you every Sunday night. My bully cutting in the Great American is
always going to have on a senator. And I said to jd on and
off the air now it is refreshing. He's been in office now for about
a year and a half, and so far he's not a swamp creature.
He still thinks and talks like normal Americans, which is a positive. I
think it's a tremendously positive thing. Would you agree, absolutely? So we'll
see what happens to him down the road. But one thing tonight I find
amazing is that Israel has now warned that they will strike the head of the
snake, which is Iran, if they're attacked from the north, which is
Lebanon, which is Hesbela. Hesbela has one hundred and fifty thousand, I
said, one hundred and fifty thousand of the most advanced weaponry in the world,
produced by Iran and by North Korea. North Korea is intimately involved in
this because they're receiving a hard currency and North Koreans and need hard currency like
a pit bowl needs a pork chop. So at this point the message has
been sent privately and publicly to Iran that they will wipe them off the face
of the earth if they're attacked by their surrogates in the north. Every now
and then a show comes over. Tonight there was reporting that an Israeli soldier
was killed in northern Israel. Every now and then they're testing. But according
to military analysts I've seen on all these cable shows that Hesbla has about one
hundred and fifty thousand precision guided missiles and also unguided missiles, and fifty thousand
military drones and more. And if that happens, and that all hell is
released by Hesballah, which is a brother of Iran. That Israel's two word
slogan never again, will come into play. And then we're looking at a
nuclear situation where Iran will be decimated and destroyed the head of the snake.
So it's a consequence right now tonight Sunday night. China is sending warships to
the Middle East, the Pentagon has more deployment orders, and we're about three
or four steps from World War three. Play it out. It's all bad.
None of it's good. In fact, it's awful. So we'll see
what occurs. But as some have said, including Robert Gates, former Obama
Secretary of Defense, who said, over the past forty years, there's not
been one time on the big issue that Senator, Vice President or President Biden
has been right on any major issue, not one time. That the guy
now pushing the button and in charge is old and feeble without a functioning brain.
That's called Joe Biden. So I read a column Forget where that it
might be helpful for the Democrat Party elders, whoever they are, at some
point soon to tell Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, you must step down.
But the problem is that would make a non existent Republican Speaker of the House
the acting president. That doesn't skip that part, then it's going to be
a Senator Patty Murray, who Senator pro tem, she'd be the acting president.
Never before, can I recall when America is so much at risk of
the survivability of civilization and we have Joe Biden and Kamala Harris in charge.
All I can say is are you kidding me? The answer is no,
that's who we have in charge. It is truly unbelievable. Well, let's
continue. Coming up next, we have Stephen Malloy relative relative to what's happening
in Israel and also the so called Green New Deal which has turned out to
be an unmitigated disaster which is costing US billions of dollars in this disagreement with
the Middle East in Iran. And also later on will be Tim Graham of
NewsBusters Dot Org, An Alkolide of Media Research Center, and Brett Bozel about
how the media screwed this thing up. So let's continue with more. Bill

And would you share with the American people why you say we? Certainly
I agree with that, either wittingly or unwittingly, President Biden's policies is crashing
will crash the American economy. Sure, and Hey, both, thanks for
having me. So you know, Joe Biden is committed to his green agenda.
It's the most important thing to him. Just you know, last month
he said that global warming is more of a threat to US than nuclear war,
and just last week his National Security account spokesman John Kirby reiterated that he
didn't given a chance to walk that stupid comment back, he doubled down on
it. So the greet agenda's the most important thing to Biden, which I
guess in a world where everyone was going to commit suicide, that would be
okay, yeah, I'd be great. But in China, you know,
they're not going to do this, and it just you know, during in
September, during the UN Climate Week, China you know, dropped its net
zero pose. It just said, you know, look, fossil fuels are
important to our growth, and of course fossil fuels are also important to the
Chinese agenda, which is you know, global hedgemity by twenty forty nine.
So they're not given up fossil fuels. They know what's important to them being
a lone global superpower, and they're going for it. And you know,
on the other hand, you have the Biden mystery. What are they doing.
Well, they're dismantling our electric grid. They plan on banning gasoline powered
cars. You know what could go wrong? You know, they're even making
excuses for the Chinese. Now the Biden Department of Energy is saying that,
well, you know, Chinese emissions, it's not really so bad. You
know, if they all go to electric cars, even if they're powered by
coal, well, if they drive their cars almost two hundred thousand miles,
everything's going to work out. This is crazy stuff. And the electro grid
in this country is powered by either coal natural gas oil. Anyway, let
me share some factoids from one of your previous columns. This in India,
which is the most populous nation on Earth, is even worse. But China
currently operates more than one thousand coal fired power plants, with more than two
hundred more under our construction. China producers twenty seven percent of the world's total
man CAUs carbon dioxide emissions annually, and these emissions will expand as these of
coal continues to grow. According to the EIA, China consume more than four
trillion metric tons of coal in twenty twenty two, or about fifty percent of
the world's total consumption. By comparison, the US consumed just eight percent of
global coal, ranking third behind India, which is eleven percent. So if
you take China and India together, that's about sixty three percent, and they're
increasing the reliance upon co and America is reducing it's reliant. So explain how
even if Joe Biden et cetera completely have their ways and we go to those
magical di lithium crystals that operate power plants, that suddenly the world's by the
way, the world's air is clean, America is cleaner now than it's been
in one hundred years. But why would it have no impact whatsoever? Well,
so this is the thing, you know, to anybody that is just
aware of a few basic facts like you just pointed out and can do simple
maths, the whole climate agenda is really pointless because the world is not cutting
emissions. In fact, last week the Biden Department of Energy came out with
projections projecting that global emissions are not going to be at net zero at twenty
fifty. They're going to be higher than they are now. So what are
we doing? I mean, we are we're destroying our energy system, our
transportation system. We're destroying our enemy. We're putting a national security at risk,
all for nothing because global emissions are going up. Anyway. I have
the stats out of India, which is the world's most populous nation. They're
focused on expanding, not reducing its own use of coal in the coming years.
During the sixth month Parot between April and September of this year, India's
largest power company NTPC reported an eighty three percent increase and the use of coal
in India. And seventy percent of India's electricity is generated by coal and that
share is rising, not falling. Take two of those together, we can
bankrupt ourselves have no impact on the environment. Correct. Well, yeah,
you know, even if you use you know, if the United States went
to the you know, mythical net zero today to shut itself off, you
know, using un climate models, you can see that there would be hardly
any temperature change, you know, maybe point four point zer zuo four degrees
fahrenheit, four hundreds of a degree Fahrenheim by twenty fifty. I mean,
the whole thing is crazy. And then when you add in you have comments
from John Carrey, I've got this. You know on my website, John
Carring John Kerrey Biden's climate on voicing that even to US and China go to
zero tomorrow, it's not going to make a difference. And how much were
to cost? I WoT I've watched Senator John Kennedy Louis ann about two weeks
ago to talk to the Secretary of the of Energy Greg Granholm. Was a
complete fool from Michigan, saying, give me the cost of America, not
the world, America switching away completely into a carbon free environment. And she
came up with the number fifty trillion dollars We would have to spend fifty trillion
dollars, admittedly having no impact on the environment because those using coal aren't going
to stop. Can you think of a more stupid policy? No? You
know, everything in our world depends on fossil fuels. There's not a single
thing you can do that doesn't depend on fossils. Just look around at where
you are, plastic, paints, chemicals, whatever, cars. You can't
build a solar panel or as just said, the Chinese can't build a solar
panel without coal. We can't build or install wind turbines without fossil fuels.
Nothing happens. Yet these people want to ban our lifeblood. I mean,
they're insane. And you know, I appreciate you because there's very few people
in the media that are willing to talk about this. How about this one
Steve molloy, author of junk science dot com, on his first day in
office, in order to send the right virtue signaling Joe Biden, someone put
a piece of paper in front of him and he signed it because he don't
know what he's reading. But he destroyed and stopped the eight billion dollar Trans
Canada pipeline from Alberta through America in Louisiana. Eight billion dollars killed about one
hundred thousand union jobs. And he did that in order to send the message
as a new sheriff in town. And he had the claim that somehow by
doing so it would lower somehow pollution. It was complete nonsense because the Alberta
oil sand projects has continued to flow oil into the US on trucks and trains.
Trucks and trains, rail and trucking far more risky, far more expensive,
much more polluting than transporting oil by modern state of the art pipelines.
So instead of that stuff coming to us, quickly in pipelines that do not
have polluting aspects of trucks and trains in a pipeline. He got rid of
the one method of delivery that is completely non polluting is inside a pipeline,
and he put it on trucks and trains that supposedly pollute. Can you explain,
Yeah, no, it's no, It's really unbelievable. And the thing
is is that, you know, when when Joe Biden took over, America
was energy dominant, meaning that we controlled the price of oil, which was
very important. That's why we had two dollars gas. Well, Biden gave
that up, and now Opaq and Saudi Arabia control the price of oil.
And you know, here we are, you know, on the verge of
war in the Middle East, and we're no longer in charge of the price
of oil. This is you know, Joe Biden has been a total freaking
disaster, stay moil. Let's briefly discuss where are the ingredients come to make
these battery in mining for the materials that go to China to make the batteries.
Can you address yourself to that. Yeah, sure, So you know,
sixty percent of the global supply of cobalt, which goes into the lithium
ion batteries, comes from the Congo. There are forty thousand child miners in
the Congo that produced this stuff. By the way, it's not the not
anyone in the Congo that owns these minds. The Chinese bought all these mines
courtesy of Hunter Biden by the way, but that's a different story. The
Chinese owned cobalt is then shipped to China where it's processed, and then you
know, American car manufacturers get to get to turn this stuff into evs that
we all apply it by it well, some of us buy at exorbitant prices,
so you've got this, you know, child slave labor. You know,
there are a lot of other metals and minerals that our mind is strip
mind in China with no environmental regulation, people think that evs are green.
Uh, they are a total environmental and human rights nightmare. In fact,
the pollution caused by electric vehicles and the obtaining of the ingredients produce death,
disease, and sorrow. And at this point, the EV's pollute net more
and cost more live an oil and natural gas which is transported through pipelines that
we have beneath our feet all the materials necessary to fuel us for the next
forty or fifty years. While someone creates cold fusion reactors or dilithium crystals at
some point in the future, it may be limitless. One other aspect is
nuclear power. We have not built a nuclear power plant in this country in
fifty years. The cleanest electricity is produced by nuclear power. They can be
produced in a safe fashion, in a good way, but they're not because
of politics. Explain why we don't use nuclear power and why we don't have
more. Yeah, so we stop building nuclear plants in nineteen seventy nine after
this three Mile Island incident, which was really caused no harm to scared people.
We recently, just in Georgia, there's been a new nuclear reactor that
opened. But generally speaking, you know, the government has been making it
very difficult to build these plants, and we're not. They're very defensive.
They you know, if you do build them, like the one in Georgia,
they're you know, billions and billions of cost over runs, years of
delay. So no one's interested in doing this. You know, there's new
technology, we could build smaller reactors, you know, maybe the size of
a large dumpster that could power communities. It's technology that they're working on in
Europe, but of course in America, you can never put these things any
place. So Biden administration is giving money to Poland so that Poland can experiment
with these small modular reactors, but he won't do it in the United States.
Steve Molloya Tayl. What's amazing. We have beneath our feet hundreds of
years or reserves of coal, natural gas, and oil that we can use
and crash the price of oil. That would hurt the nation's enemies, especially
with Israel at war. We don't do that. Secondly, the use of
those materials would create tens of thousands of high paying union and other jobs.
We don't do that. We continue to trans forward these materials by truck and
train, which is costly expensive in polluting, instead of using pipelines that don't
pollute and get it done more quickly at a lower price, all of which
has no relationship to reality. Plus, the Chinese have seized the electric battery
world, in which they will dominate for decades to come. Now we're going
to mandate in America, like the New Mexico governor said by twenty thirty,
all the vehicles in New Mexico, the Land of Enchantment, have got to
be electric vehicles. So she's mandating, as is California, that we transfer
billions of dollars to the communist red Chinese. Can you explain that to me?
Well, yeah, the Biden administration came in, and you know,
the Bide administration is all Democrats, all leftists. They represent all leftists in
the world. Their goal is to use this all of government approach. Means
that every level of government, every form of government, is implementing the green
agenda. It's the most important thing they do. Remember, global warming is
worse than nuclear war because Joe Biden. So that's what you see happening,
you know. Finally, today I saw there's some news that carmakers are starting
to push back against you know, this EV agenda because of course they're all
losing money forward. Last year lost thirty thousand dollars per EV sold. This
year, it's going to be worse for them, you know, in another
couple of years. So that's kind of success, and they're going to be
completely out of business, so they can't afford this. Americans don't want these
things, but you know, leftists in government. I don't know why people
vote for these these guys. Leftists and government insist on implementing this climate agenda.
You know, at junk science, I don't really tell people anything that
they can't discover for themselves. I mean, all this you know, climate
stuff, it's easily debunkable. Everything they want to do, All those solutions
are you know, debunkable. You can see what all this stuff comes from
China. Nobody caress making us dependent on them. But but the leftists,
Democrats, they just don't care. Well there. The climate agenda is meant
to take over control of every aspect of our lives, and that's what they're
doing. By any objective measurement, America is the cleanest air and the cleanest
water than we've had for one hundred years. And every year or two it
gets better because of scrubbers and the use of coal and natural gas in a
cleaner way. It gets better and better and better at the expense of left
wing politics. The windmills are killing biological species all over the planet. In
fact, I think New York State has just said to the Biden administration,
you can't do the windmills anymore. We're killing too much of God's creation,
which are whales and dolphins and birds. There's millions of birds killed every year
in the state of Indiana with all those damn windmills. It is absolutely a
canard. It's a joke. It is ridiculous, and somehow, Steve molloy,
it must be stopped. Yeah. Look, I've I've been working on
this for thirty years. The biggest con is that environmentalists care about the environment.
No, they care about getting control, political control, and control of
the economy. And that's what this is all about. You know, Americans
have been dazzled by the word environment and green and you know, they don't
realize how clean our environment is, as you pointed out, and it has
been clean for a long time. It's no longer in nineteen seventy, when
I started doing working on these issues in nineteen ninety, the environment was pretty
much already clean. And ever since then it's just been this overregulation with the
goal of bringing you know, the entire economy under the control of the left
wing control government. That's what market wake up to. That, Yeah,
that's what they do. That's what they do. And Biden is not in
charge. Obama and the alcoholtes are in charge. He has no idea what's
going on? Right. Once again junk science dot Com. Steve molloy,
a fellow attorney, and once again, thank you for coming on The Cunningham
Show. Thank you, Steve. Yeah, bye bye bye. Let's continue.
The truth will set us off free. And at this point many of
us are enslaved. Bill cunning In The Great American Live with You every Sunday
Night by Billy cunning In the Great American. And let's face it, right
now, we are in a world of hurt and I pray it gets better.
I loved hearing from Steven Malloyd to talk about how the Biden energy policy
helped precipitate this crisis, because what it did was put about one hundred billion
dollars in cash in the hands of Iran that they use for all kinds of
very bad purposes. And the policies got to change. We used to export
oil, now we import it. Used to pay about dollar ninety gallon when
Trump was in power. Now with this regime, we're paying about three fifty
to four dollars and it's about the skyrocket. And Biden can still change that.
He can still say because it's a national security crisis. Let's go back
to policies that hurt Iran and hurt Russia. But not this guy. He's
frail and elderly, and he doesn't understand what's going on. So let's continue
with more. Coming up next is the great Tim Graham of NewsBusters dot Org,
also of Media Research Center, is chronicled what's happening in the media coverage
of these events, which, by the way, is completely disgusting and it's
sad to watch how our news media, instead of being objective and fair,
takes sides all the time and ignore the policies of either Obama or Biden.
I call him o Biden because Obama is still in charge. That makes America
weaker, decapitates the middle class in this country, raise interest rates past the
point of which many Americans can afford, and then also puts billions of dollars
in the hands of this nation's mortal and me, which is the Republic of
Iran, not the people of Iran, but the eyetoll is in the extremist
that controlled it. So let's continue with more. Aligne becomes available eight sixty
six, sixty four seven seven three three seven Bill Cunningham, the Great American
with you every Sunday and is now the executive editor of NewsBusters. It's an
organization committed to disclosing and making more public the mainstream media bias which is present
everywhere. And Tim Graham, welcome again to the Bill Cunningham Show. And
Tim, can you give me an overview since October the seventh, it's been
now about two weeks. As far as what the media has done, supposedly
objectively, what's covering this war? Well, this is a typical pattern in
that you had just this horrible attack on civilians in israel I. Guess it
wasn't typical because he's horrible tax on civilians, and the murders they recorded them,
Hamas recorded them, and they put them out on social media. They
were very proud of them. This made it hard for the news media to
try to suggest things were unconfirmed. But generally what happens is if you look
at what happened to us after nine to eleven, there was a period of
great empathy and horror, and then when the military response comes, then they
sort of go back to their general, Oh, here come the war crimes
type of coverage. You know this happened to the Americans when we went into
Afghanistan. They sort of go back into that United Nations mode of you're the
war criminal, you're the human rights abuser. And so that's where we are
now with Israel. And yes, we had this this complete eat the failure
the media with this this bomb outside the hospital in Gaza, and they all
jumped and said Israeli airstrike without even blinking, without confirming. What I've tried
to say is these are the people the fact checkers won't touch. These are
the people that Facebook and ex Twitter are not gonna deplatform or suspend, and
they're putting out the rankest misinformation based on a terrorist source. And Tim Gramley
don't. Yeah. Other than other occasions when the media shows their Marxist left
wing bias, in this case it into real life consequences. One headline online
New York Times said five hundred Palestinians killed in an Israeli airstrike, says Palestinian
authority. The Palestinian authority is a muss. But when that hit the airwaves,
what happened in the in the capitals of the world, what happened in
the Middle East? What happened it set the template, and by the time
the truth came out about five to six hours later, it was too late.
When information like this causes violent protests and rioting outside Israeli consulates, even
outside American embassies where we have to fear of Benghazi rerun, you know.
Obviously this is exactly the sort of thing where they would say, we can't
trust the New York Post, we have to shut it down for seventeen days
because they're irresponsible. And nobody's ever going to shut down the New York Times
like, well, let's suspend the New York Times on Twitter for seventeen days.
They're never going to do that. And so the obvious thing here to
underline is they're not apologizing. They corrected, but they corrected it by saying,
well, the Biden administration says it wasn't Israel. It didn't really say
my bad no, you know, and instead, I mean this made me
mad the other night in the previous news hour, where they were like,
well, whatever, the fury in the Arab street remains, Yeah, that's
right, We're gonna yeah, yeah, even though we lied about it.
Yeah, let's say and one thing Tim Graham of NewsBusters is one thing that
really frosts me. Is the moral equivalence argument? After all, this a
cycle of violence, as if criminals commit violent acts, the police respond,
and when the police respond to the violent act, guess what that's perpetuating the
cycle of violence between the Israelis and a moss the moral equivalence argument. One
purpose is to enable the morally confused to hide their confusion, and the other
is to enable the immoral to hide their immorality. So we're going to hear
this constantly today, tonight, tomorrow, and the next days about moral equivalents.
The attacks by the Israeli, which is in justification to what occurred on
October the seventh. It's a tit for tad. Each sides are equal.
We don't know what to do. It's a moral equivalence. Is it morally
equivalent? When America responded to nine to eleven? Did the Israelis tell George
Bush, now, don't get angry, be nice, make sure your response
is equivalent to what happened on nine to eleven. The Israelis would never do
that with us, but of course that's what the media says. The Israeli
army has to do. Be careful, don't cause too many civilian deaths,
which they do anyway, give me the moral equivalence argument. Well, I
thought this was especially objectionable in the President's speech, where basically he tried to
say, well, America wasn't didn't do the right thing after nine to eleven.
There was too much blind rage, there was too much Islamophobia. And
you know he's ripping President Bush for one. You know, that made it
a Democrat speech. It was no longer a unifying speech. He meant it
at the beginning to sound like a unifying speech. But then once you start
talking about how islamophobia, now you're back in is ilhana Omar territory instead of
unifying. But yes, this is a comedy bill, and that is these
people all said, you can't normalize Trump, you can't both sides Trump,
but you can both side Tomas. This is the thing where they all enjoyed
this week suggesting Jim Jordan was a terrorist. That's what John Bahner said,
ha ha ha, oh, so Jim Jordan you can call terrorists. But
all these media companies like the BBC and the CBC are like, we will
not use the word terrorism. We will, however, blame the Israelis for
air strikes. They didn't cause we are so professional. The implication is,
and I hear this constantly, Palestinian babies are just as precious as Israeli babies.
The answer is yes. No one argues that point. But one side
ONTs to behead babies. The other side wants to make sure no more civilian
casualties take place. The Israelis work around to try not to kill civilians,
while Hamas and their Palestinian supporters spend time killing civilians for political purposes. So
there is not a moral equivalence. And Tim Graham, this is going back
a few decades. But the German people in nineteen thirty three elected Adolf Hitler
to be the chancellor after a year or two. He sees power and Itelf
Hitler was extremely popular in Germany in nineteen thirty four, thirty five and thirty
six. He would have been elected in a fair election he easily would have
won. So when it came time to firebomb Dresden and to commit large acts
against civilian populations, there was hardly I don't think there was no voice in
America to say don't do that. Got to be careful, you got to
separate the German people from the Nazis that they voted for, and then Gaza
right now, I am certain the great majority of Gaza residents would like to
live in peace and quiet and harmony, but unfortunately they elected Hamas to be
their representative in twenty oh six and since then there's been no And so I'm
sympathetic to that. But most nations at war were at survivabilities at stake.
Doesn't pay attention a lot to civilian casualties. It is unfortunate, it has
said. But isn't it true that the Israelis tried to avoid civilian casualties while
Hamas and Hezbollah and al Qaeda and ISIS and Islamic Jihad et cetera, et
cetera, et cetera, they purposely target civilians. Isn't there not a moral
equivalence? Yeah, well, it's the same thing with people now running around
like calling for a ceasefire. It's like there's never been a ceasefire. The
cousin the Hamasas never had a ceasefire. Hamasa's daily routine is to lob missiles
at Israel's That's what they do, it's their thing. Yeah, I mean,
you're right, nobody was going to dare to this. I think,
of course Sting had this song in the eighties. The Russians loved their children
too. That's such a stupid thing to say, because they didn't say the
Nazis love their children too while they kill six million Jews. At some point,
yes, don't, especially after you've tried to tell us you can't normalize
Trump. Well, guess what, you can't normalize a moss. And yes,
the Palestinians as a people, they don't get a two state solution if
they can never be peaceful. They're not even mostly peaceful. They are known
for lobbying missiles at Israel, and their own promises are like, We're going
to destroy these people and throw the Jews into the sea, and then they
accuse the Jews of genocide. YEP. Two other quick matters is that thing
that one of the solutions to this dispute, which may be insoluble, is
for other Arab countries who care so deeply about the Palestinians to admit them to
their country. But whether it's whether it's a President Abdullah or whether it's a
Cisi in Egypt and Jordan both say we don't want them. We're not going
to take them, and so they crow crocodile tears about the Gosins and the
Palestinians, but will not step up to solve the difficulty. And secondly,
you have a great column on the issue of democracy dies in Darkness, which
is the Washington Post discuss because of the coverage of the Washington Post, democracy
wasn't even born yet. But nonetheless, can you talk about where the slogan
came from, what it really means. Well, they tried to deny this
was an anti Trump slogan, and everybody in the universe knew better. This
was not a slogan they came up with under Obama, and it's a pompous
slogan, and it basically says we are democracy and you're not. That we
are the guaranteurs of democracy. And you look at a time like this and
it's like, no, the people who want democracy to die in darkness is
amos is the Islamic Jihad, And you're saying, let's be both sides with
them. You know, our whole point has always been with this slogan,
you know who else's democracy? People will say the Washington Post is a Democrat
rag that nobody should read that freedom of speech perfect. And lastly, the
president's speech talked about one hundred billion dollars and we have given tens of billions
of dollars to Jordan, to Syria. Biden's policies allowed the Iranians and they're
the head of the snake. The Iranians are the head of the snake to
receive about one hundred billion dollars in oil revenues that Trump did not permit.
They were on their back four years ago. The last thirty three months,
the Iranians have picked up not just the six billion dollars, but one hundred
billion dollars in extra oil revenue because we're not energy independent anymore. And Trump
had the policy to destroy Iranians at the gas pump. And so when we
talk about the money, is the one hundred billion dollars that the Congress,
I would imagine has to approve with money going all over the place, including
to Gaza, including to Egypt, including to Jordan, including to Israel,
including to Ukraine. Well, what's your take on the media coverage of how
it is required that we open up another credit card? We got one in
the mail America government said let's open up another credit card. That we're never
going to pay back. Let's get another one hundred billion dollars hand it out
all over the world. What's your reaction to that? Well, I think
the simple truth is the news media is the Democrats, the Democrats of the
news media. So they're going to, you know, basically broadcast Biden's thing
and suggest if you oppose a to Ukraine you must be some sort of putin
stooge. You can't even ask questions where is this going, why is it
going? How much is going? They've sent far more aid to Ukraine in
the last few months than they've sent to Israel in forty or fifty years,
I mean, and people don't have any accurate sense of how much money's been
sent. Now, you could say that's all justified because the Russians deserve it,
but you you know, they don't really let you question it, and
they're certainly not paying attention to yes, how this administration has been a pile
of STAPs toward Iran. I don't think the American people writ large think of
Iran as a democracy because it's not. So if you think democracy dies in
darkness, why are you enabling Iran to be such a pestilence in the Middle
East. Well, you have a great column up about CNN and MSNBC absurdly
compare Israel to Russia, that somehow they're the same, when they're just directly
the opposite. The only functioning democracy, the only civilized part of the Middle
East is Israel, and they're in terrible conditions because of a hes blood in
the north. They have one hundred and fifty thousand rockets and guided missiles and
other missiles they could obliterate large numbers of Israeli cities, which would result possibly
in the Third World War. And lastly, do you think we're on the
eve of nineteen thirty eight, nineteen thirty nine or on something different? Well,
I certainly hope not. I think that what should proceed here is Hamas
needs to be rooted out. And I think the first question about Hamas is
we should have unity about these people. Are they're not worthy of a two
state solution because they don't they don't believe in a two state solution. We
should just laugh at people talking about a two state solution because it's sort of
like saying, well, can you coexist with your neighbor when he tries to
break into your house every night and shoot you in the head. Please,
how does that play make any sense? You have a proportional response as the
barbarians rape your daughters. You have to understand you got to have to have
a proportional response and be careful. I mean, it's unbelievable. This is
why people hate the media bill is that they get in there and they think
they're secretary of state. Just get out, stop aware of the peacemakers.
No, just report what's going on and stop trying to run the government.
Nobody elected you to run the government, but they always act like they are
the government. Just sit down and report what's happening. Well, the media
should know its role and shut its mouth. I love your column about reliable
media, aren't ashamed of fake news on the Gaza Hospital NBC and Lester Holt
wines about backlash to lefty students demanding Jewish genocide. We have Hamas chapters all
over major universities right now, paid for by God knows who, and when
they're protesting, they have more paragliders kill Israelis. We have Hesbala chapters all
over state universities, and I would hope at some point we recognize it.
Once again, Tim Graham, thank you NewsBusters dot Org, great website,
good stuff. Tim Graham, once again, thank you for coming on the
Bill Cunningham Show. Thank you, Tim, Thank you. All right,
God bless America. All let's continue with more. And it's amazing to watch.
And after the hour is six to ten hours of lies about the Gosa
hospital strike, the media simply moved on and said, oh well, no
apologies and simply the way the media operates. Bill cunning into the Grand American,
Live with you every Sunday Night by Billy cunning in the Great American.
Thank you very much for listening this glorious Sunday night. Americans at risk.
We need leadership and prayer more than possibly ever before in my life. I
thought nine to eleven was a problem. We were facing the mujah dot En
in Afghanistan and the mountain ranges. Here, we're facing intractable enemies all over
the globe, including Russia and China and North Korea and Iran and Lebanon and
Jordan and Syria and ultimately Egypt. And this is a horrible, terrible circumstance
in which Joe Biden's policies have put us there's a reason this is happening now
and didn't happen thirty six months ago. You look at the withdrawal from Afghanistan.
That's what gave license to putin to invade Ukraine. You look about what
happened in Afghanistan, that is what gave license to Iran to have Amas and
Hesbel attack Israel. Because of the policies of Joe Biden. He seems so
weak, foolish, and feckless and senile that it looks as if we're on
the cusp of Ward warth three. And it could be a tinderbox over the
next week. And I pray to God at this point, even the wise
men of the Democratic Party, of which few exist, could not walk up
the steps of sixteen hundred Pennsylvania Avenue and tell Joe Biden and Kamala Harris,
look, you got to get out of office, because who would get in
at this point? It out Senator Patty Murray of Washington, there's no Speaker
of the House. Are you getting me? My God? Are we in
