We're gonna 13 00:00:41.280 --> 00:00:44.079 be cute and fun. What's up, guys, what's up? How 14 00:00:44.119 --> 00:00:50.399 are you guys?

Talk to me, look at me, 16 00:00:52.759 --> 00:00:56.920 shoot this over to Yeah, it looks like, uh, the 17 00:00:56.960 --> 00:01:00.719 Pakistani's were in it. They were doing like a lot 18 00:01:00.719 --> 00:01:06.680 of the mediating and stuff. Grace period sounds clear, sounds good, 19 00:01:06.680 --> 00:01:11.400 but good, awesome, good, Love to hear it, love to 20 00:01:11.439 --> 00:01:16.480 hear it. Nice. Maybe if he's doing a speech at eight, 21 00:01:16.560 --> 00:01:19.599 maybe we'll watch that and goof and gaff on it. 22 00:01:19.760 --> 00:01:21.680 I mean you saw that, like there was like the 23 00:01:21.799 --> 00:01:25.040 last few hours, people were all over Twitter saying that, 24 00:01:26.159 --> 00:01:29.159 you know, they're working on a late two week ceasefire 25 00:01:29.319 --> 00:01:31.920 through the Pakistanis and all this, so you kind of 26 00:01:31.959 --> 00:01:33.799 like the writing was kind of on the wall, and 27 00:01:33.840 --> 00:01:36.920 once Oxio starts reporting it, you know, it's like, all right, yeah, 28 00:01:36.959 --> 00:01:41.280 the White House's stenographers are reporting, reporting what they wanted 29 00:01:41.319 --> 00:01:43.239 to say. Yeah, so we'll see where this goes. Oh yeah, 30 00:01:43.239 --> 00:01:44.840 in the last few hours you show like a real 31 00:01:44.879 --> 00:01:47.319 big uptick of like bombing in Tehran and stuff like that. 32 00:01:47.359 --> 00:01:51.319 So it was kind of they were trying to get 33 00:01:51.359 --> 00:01:55.439 it in before they called the ceasefire. See Mark P's coming, 34 00:01:55.599 --> 00:01:59.840 All right, enough enough chatting in the signal chat are 35 00:02:00.000 --> 00:02:05.200 signal chat is a wild one. I'll be honest. Well, 36 00:02:05.239 --> 00:02:07.319 I think Israel is like the idea for is really 37 00:02:07.400 --> 00:02:11.199 pounding Tehran as well. Uh, pretty tough, pretty hard over 38 00:02:11.240 --> 00:02:12.759 the last few hours as well, because I think they 39 00:02:12.759 --> 00:02:14.879 saw the riding was on the wall. I did also 40 00:02:14.919 --> 00:02:17.800 see that like somewhere it was like one tweet, So 41 00:02:17.840 --> 00:02:19.319 I don't know if I believe it until like a 42 00:02:19.360 --> 00:02:21.120 bunch of people are starting to talk about it, like, 43 00:02:21.240 --> 00:02:27.039 uh that Lebanon was also part of this, which I 44 00:02:27.080 --> 00:02:31.919 don't believe. I don't believe because my guess is Israel 45 00:02:31.960 --> 00:02:35.199 is probably pushing for these guys to uh not through 46 00:02:35.240 --> 00:02:36.599 the seas far are we doing it? 47 00:02:36.960 --> 00:02:37.199 Oh? 48 00:02:37.520 --> 00:02:42.639 So annoying?

Like an actual lasting 53 00:02:50.520 --> 00:02:53.319 kind of piece. I feel like it's not gonna be. 54 00:02:56.479 --> 00:02:58.360 The jizz is out of the tube, as they say 55 00:02:58.360 --> 00:03:00.639 in the business. You know it's out and you can't 56 00:03:00.639 --> 00:03:02.479 get it back in. I wonder what Israel thinks about 57 00:03:02.520 --> 00:03:04.560 this or they want to stop. I think Israel definitely 58 00:03:04.560 --> 00:03:06.439 doesn't want to stop. I think they want to keep 59 00:03:06.479 --> 00:03:12.680 going for as long as they could possibly go. Hell, yeah, 60 00:03:12.680 --> 00:03:14.039 we got Jason Lines. 61 00:03:17.680 --> 00:03:17.800 Yo. 62 00:03:18.360 --> 00:03:23.120 What's up, bro? We're live? Just FYI?

They put all like, oh, it's gonna 136 00:07:19.439 --> 00:07:22.600 be a secular democracy, Like are we are we serious here? 137 00:07:23.879 --> 00:07:25.720 Have we not heard this story before? 138 00:07:25.879 --> 00:07:28.319 It's like an episode of the Bachelor, for God's sake. 139 00:07:28.439 --> 00:07:29.040 Yeah. 140 00:07:29.120 --> 00:07:32.199 Yeah, he's forty three and lives on the Riviera. 141 00:07:32.519 --> 00:07:37.399 He'd be yeah, yeah, be on top of this Taco 142 00:07:37.480 --> 00:07:40.560 Tuesday te Yeah, that's funny. Trump always chickens out Tuesday. 143 00:07:41.399 --> 00:07:44.040 I mean, I get that statement about taco, like Trump 144 00:07:44.079 --> 00:07:47.279 always chickens out, But it's like the guy fucking has 145 00:07:47.319 --> 00:07:49.800 been bombing the shit out of Tehrant and you know, 146 00:07:49.879 --> 00:07:54.000 basically throwing dynamite into like the global economy, uh, for 147 00:07:54.079 --> 00:07:56.759 the last three weeks so or month. 148 00:07:57.040 --> 00:08:02.439 Yeah, I think in myion that he, yes, he does taco, 149 00:08:02.519 --> 00:08:05.759 but I think it depends on what it is, and 150 00:08:05.800 --> 00:08:08.519 it depends on who's like whispering in his ear. If 151 00:08:08.560 --> 00:08:13.240 it's you know, you're doing great, this is awesome, which 152 00:08:13.360 --> 00:08:16.279 it seems like his entire cabinet does, and it makes 153 00:08:16.319 --> 00:08:19.399 him look tough. He's gonna keep doing it, you know, 154 00:08:20.959 --> 00:08:24.680 all the way up to the brink. And I think 155 00:08:24.720 --> 00:08:29.519 it would also take reverse psychology to get him to stop. 156 00:08:29.879 --> 00:08:33.360 You know, like you've accomplished what you want. You know, 157 00:08:33.440 --> 00:08:35.519 you've you've done it, You've done a great service for 158 00:08:35.799 --> 00:08:38.879 the Iranian people, And that would get him to stop. 159 00:08:39.159 --> 00:08:44.120 You know more less than this is screwed up. We 160 00:08:44.240 --> 00:08:45.200 have no plan here. 161 00:08:45.440 --> 00:08:49.559 You know, it's funny reverse psychology, like he's a like 162 00:08:49.639 --> 00:08:53.519 he's a toddler, Yeah, exactly, Yeah, but he's got the 163 00:08:53.600 --> 00:08:58.639 nuclear codes. Yeah, Millbourne, Andy, what's up, dude, We're alive? 164 00:08:58.720 --> 00:08:59.159 Just that way? 165 00:08:59.200 --> 00:08:59.399 Why? 166 00:09:00.080 --> 00:09:02.200 And oh cool? 167 00:09:02.600 --> 00:09:07.480 Okay, So no oberrating, no berating the US Navy and 168 00:09:07.519 --> 00:09:11.879 the aircraft carriers. Actually you'll do that on the show. 169 00:09:14.960 --> 00:09:15.879 So we're talking. 170 00:09:15.679 --> 00:09:18.320 About we're doing quick summary of what we know. 171 00:09:19.000 --> 00:09:21.639 Yeah. Sure, we talked about it a little bit like 172 00:09:22.000 --> 00:09:26.039 cease fire for two weeks. Is there any like details 173 00:09:26.039 --> 00:09:27.720 in terms of what's in the cease fire? Is the 174 00:09:27.799 --> 00:09:28.600 straight open up? 175 00:09:28.759 --> 00:09:29.159 Like? What? 176 00:09:29.279 --> 00:09:32.759 Yeah? The straight was a central point. My understanding was 177 00:09:32.919 --> 00:09:38.519 that for what whatever that means, I mean, obviously what 178 00:09:38.559 --> 00:09:41.480 it means is the Uranians have agreed not to disrupt 179 00:09:41.559 --> 00:09:48.519 shipping or not to threaten shipping anymore, and Fans is 180 00:09:48.600 --> 00:09:54.000 going to lead negotiations is what the Xios article says, 181 00:09:54.960 --> 00:09:58.279 which is a definite improvement I think right from whitcom 182 00:09:58.440 --> 00:10:01.960 for the Yeah, the two who got us into this 183 00:10:02.679 --> 00:10:09.919 into this mess, Natanya, who's not happy, Lindsey Graham's probably 184 00:10:09.960 --> 00:10:15.039 not happy. They were. They wanted to hold out the 185 00:10:15.080 --> 00:10:19.600 president's declaring victory based on military objectives already achieved. I've 186 00:10:19.639 --> 00:10:23.639 gone from being pessimistic to optimistic. Maybe because it's two 187 00:10:23.639 --> 00:10:24.840 o'clock in the morning. 188 00:10:24.559 --> 00:10:26.679 Here, man, you're still up. 189 00:10:27.360 --> 00:10:30.679 Yeah, well I was up because the water was cut off, 190 00:10:31.360 --> 00:10:34.879 I think in anticipation of World War three, and I'm 191 00:10:34.879 --> 00:10:36.879 hoping now there's a ceasefire, they'll turn it on. 192 00:10:40.080 --> 00:10:40.799 Take a shower. 193 00:10:41.360 --> 00:10:45.600 Yeah, yeah, you know, man, I'm a marine, of coursewer 194 00:10:45.639 --> 00:10:49.919 three or four times a day. I can't go to sleep. 195 00:10:49.960 --> 00:10:56.720 Discusy oh, what so what happened in the uh as 196 00:10:56.799 --> 00:10:59.759 someone was saying that Tehran was getting then the United 197 00:10:59.799 --> 00:11:01.360 State was striking Tehran. 198 00:11:01.840 --> 00:11:04.399 I think the I d F and and US we 199 00:11:04.399 --> 00:11:06.559 were pounding them the last few hours because I think 200 00:11:06.559 --> 00:11:11.320 that the ceasefire was on the on the cards. Yeah, Okay, 201 00:11:11.559 --> 00:11:14.159 all suck says, if Graham and BB are upset, then 202 00:11:14.240 --> 00:11:16.080 that's a good that's a good thing for America in 203 00:11:16.120 --> 00:11:19.279 the world. I agree with you who said that one 204 00:11:19.279 --> 00:11:26.240 of the chatters in the chat because we're live, right, Okay, 205 00:11:27.159 --> 00:11:29.240 if Graham and BB are upset, it's probably a good 206 00:11:29.240 --> 00:11:30.320 thing for America in the world. 207 00:11:30.519 --> 00:11:33.559 Yeah, yeah, I think so. I think you know, Lindsey. 208 00:11:33.240 --> 00:11:36.240 Graham, what's up, bro, We're live, We're live, just. 209 00:11:36.960 --> 00:11:40.440 Right now, all right, Yeah, thank you. And you know, 210 00:11:40.519 --> 00:11:43.639 everyone thought that the Pakistanis didn't have any leverage with anyone, 211 00:11:43.679 --> 00:11:46.799 but they were. The media is of this, not Odowan 212 00:11:47.240 --> 00:11:50.840 not you know, so kudos to them. 213 00:11:50.960 --> 00:11:54.919 Huh. They are in nuclear armed countries. They do have 214 00:11:54.960 --> 00:11:57.159 that over the other options that we're in there. 215 00:11:57.240 --> 00:12:01.200 That is true. Yeah. What was the name of that 216 00:12:01.240 --> 00:12:05.159 guy who was the father of the nuclear program, Khan 217 00:12:05.320 --> 00:12:11.000 akh Aq. Yeah, that's quite a story, isn't it. Yeah, 218 00:12:11.039 --> 00:12:13.559 he's a he's a national hero man. And you know, 219 00:12:15.159 --> 00:12:19.120 I cannot blame the Pakistanis for me Kingdom a national 220 00:12:19.159 --> 00:12:24.200 hero because it's certainly changes the dynamics, doesn't it. Once 221 00:12:24.240 --> 00:12:28.080 you were in nuclear power, just as King Jong. 222 00:12:30.240 --> 00:12:30.440 Yeah. 223 00:12:30.440 --> 00:12:32.840 I've got the Samson option right here, which is actually 224 00:12:32.840 --> 00:12:35.039 the story about how Israel got the bomb through aq 225 00:12:35.240 --> 00:12:37.919 kN in contrast to that. 226 00:12:38.039 --> 00:12:42.159 Yeah, yeah, I love to read that. 227 00:12:43.559 --> 00:12:45.159 Yeah, they didn't get it from you actually had it. 228 00:12:47.399 --> 00:12:52.759 We actually had Jim Jim Lawler, former CIA guy who 229 00:12:52.840 --> 00:12:55.320 was like big into the you know, played a big 230 00:12:55.360 --> 00:13:00.159 hand in taking down that network. I mean, but they 231 00:13:00.159 --> 00:13:01.879 still got the bomb, right, so it's not like. 232 00:13:02.039 --> 00:13:06.720 Yeah, and actually there's centrifews. The level one centrifuge they 233 00:13:06.759 --> 00:13:08.120 had and I think it was nineteen eighty eight or 234 00:13:08.159 --> 00:13:11.240 eighty nine. It's the base model that Iran used in 235 00:13:11.320 --> 00:13:15.919 their centrifuges. And now Iran's like seven generations beyond that 236 00:13:16.279 --> 00:13:18.039 first generation that they got from Pakistan. 237 00:13:18.159 --> 00:13:22.600 Three marines someone said, I know, well not yeah, three marines. 238 00:13:22.679 --> 00:13:25.519 Yeah what three marines? 239 00:13:25.519 --> 00:13:25.720 One? 240 00:13:26.200 --> 00:13:28.759 Somebody said that in the chat with an exclamation point, 241 00:13:28.960 --> 00:13:29.600 very excited. 242 00:13:30.559 --> 00:13:33.120 Oh yeah, I don't know if Mercy's. 243 00:13:32.799 --> 00:13:34.919 Gonna join us. He's big time now after. 244 00:13:36.080 --> 00:13:41.399 So I'm getting skepticism from my Israeli friends, and yes 245 00:13:41.440 --> 00:13:45.360 I still have Israeli friends. Ved writing that article. Uh, 246 00:13:45.679 --> 00:13:48.759 sirens are going in Tel Aviv now, I mean like 247 00:13:49.120 --> 00:13:53.039 right now, course that doesn't necessarily mean they're being hit. 248 00:13:53.240 --> 00:13:56.159 Maybe it was just to cease far with the United States. 249 00:13:56.559 --> 00:14:00.000 I mean, we did we do a tourney on yet another. 250 00:14:01.320 --> 00:14:03.240 Don't worry about them, just yeah. 251 00:14:03.120 --> 00:14:06.519 Don't yeah, don't tell these readies. BB's not happy anyway. 252 00:14:08.759 --> 00:14:09.519 I'm not laughing. 253 00:14:11.200 --> 00:14:11.320 Is it? 254 00:14:11.519 --> 00:14:13.840 The ceasefire starts, right, now like right. 255 00:14:13.840 --> 00:14:17.480 It would be just like us. That would be full 256 00:14:17.559 --> 00:14:18.399 d chest. 257 00:14:20.799 --> 00:14:24.120 So the ceasefire is like right, it's happened immediately, right. 258 00:14:24.440 --> 00:14:24.840 Mm hmm. 259 00:14:26.399 --> 00:14:29.559 Yeah, look at the markets already. The future is shooting up. 260 00:14:29.639 --> 00:14:35.399 Oil is uh, oil is down down. You know. You 261 00:14:35.440 --> 00:14:37.759 know a lot of people in the no made money 262 00:14:37.799 --> 00:14:38.600 on this, right. 263 00:14:38.960 --> 00:14:44.480 Of course, the barakra v just tweeted Unit eighty two 264 00:14:44.559 --> 00:14:47.720 hundred news. A senior White House official tells me Israel 265 00:14:47.720 --> 00:14:51.240 has a Grito ceasefire and will also suspend its attacks 266 00:14:51.279 --> 00:14:54.279 for two weeks. The ceasefire will take effect when Iran 267 00:14:54.399 --> 00:14:56.120 opens the Straight of hor Moves. 268 00:14:56.159 --> 00:15:01.639 Oh so, you know, but that's It's not like they 269 00:15:01.679 --> 00:15:05.159 have a barrier across the Straits of Hole Moves. They're 270 00:15:05.200 --> 00:15:09.360 closing the straits by disrupting ships through the threat of 271 00:15:09.679 --> 00:15:13.759 missiles and groans. So how do you open the straits 272 00:15:14.080 --> 00:15:18.000 and thus trigger the seas fire? It doesn't make sense. 273 00:15:20.159 --> 00:15:22.559 Who just wait, wait, did you read that? Yeah? 274 00:15:22.559 --> 00:15:27.120 I think that's barackraved. Yeah, but as can be your wide. 275 00:15:27.320 --> 00:15:32.799 I've seen your white ass official told in that. Suppose listen, 276 00:15:32.840 --> 00:15:34.279 I get it. I think I said just say hey, 277 00:15:34.320 --> 00:15:38.320 it's open. Now. I don't know put out a press release. 278 00:15:40.039 --> 00:15:41.320 It's gonna be a ribbon cutting. 279 00:15:41.960 --> 00:15:46.879 Yeah. There was some talk too that Lebanon was was 280 00:15:46.960 --> 00:15:51.480 also part of the ceasefire, but I don't believe that, Like, 281 00:15:51.600 --> 00:15:53.879 is there also a ceasefire in Lebanon as well? In 282 00:15:53.919 --> 00:15:55.919 no way with Israel Lebanon. 283 00:15:56.279 --> 00:15:58.600 There would be good news for Lebanon for sure. 284 00:16:01.000 --> 00:16:02.960 That's kind of the one thing that's getting swept under 285 00:16:02.960 --> 00:16:04.519 the rug a little bit and not talked about as 286 00:16:05.159 --> 00:16:09.720 well as Gaza. Lebanon is getting pounded by Israel. 287 00:16:11.440 --> 00:16:11.759 Damn it. 288 00:16:12.000 --> 00:16:13.039 Yeah, I guess it's all. 289 00:16:14.679 --> 00:16:19.759 Jack is he is he sleeping sleeping off his celibrity status. 290 00:16:22.360 --> 00:16:23.720 I don't know where he is. I think he said 291 00:16:23.720 --> 00:16:25.879 he was getting a tattoo, and like he gets these 292 00:16:26.000 --> 00:16:30.399 huge tattoos out like take six hours. Yeah, so I 293 00:16:30.399 --> 00:16:32.600 don't know if he's jumping on. He has been snarky 294 00:16:32.639 --> 00:16:33.919 in the in our group chat. 295 00:16:33.720 --> 00:16:37.159 Though, just now you know he's beyond us now. 296 00:16:37.799 --> 00:16:40.440 Yeah, he wrote guessing it goes as well as the 297 00:16:40.440 --> 00:16:43.759 Gaza sees fires. So Jack is very optimistic on this. 298 00:16:44.720 --> 00:16:45.519 Is that what he said? 299 00:16:46.039 --> 00:16:46.240 Yeah? 300 00:16:47.320 --> 00:16:49.960 No, I mean there's there's see no one really had 301 00:16:49.960 --> 00:16:53.080 an incentive in the Gaza seas fire. That's the difference. 302 00:16:54.039 --> 00:16:56.519 Everyone has an incentive in this one, except perhaps for 303 00:16:56.559 --> 00:17:00.519 the Israelis, right, but they're not gonna unilaterally start shooting 304 00:17:00.559 --> 00:17:01.559 missiles at Iran. 305 00:17:03.720 --> 00:17:06.599 It's interesting the president of your own Pizeshkian, who's got 306 00:17:06.759 --> 00:17:10.799 no power currently obviously. He says that fourteen million Iranians 307 00:17:10.799 --> 00:17:12.640 will die for the country right now that are willing 308 00:17:12.640 --> 00:17:14.799 to sacrifice their lives, which is actually double the number 309 00:17:14.839 --> 00:17:17.880 that another Rigian official said. So that's between seven to 310 00:17:17.880 --> 00:17:21.640 fifteen percent of the country might support them based on 311 00:17:21.640 --> 00:17:22.599 their own rhetoric. 312 00:17:22.720 --> 00:17:27.880 Which ission problem is when we start threatening to destroy civilizations, 313 00:17:28.440 --> 00:17:33.880 we are uniting a population of the country behind the regime, right, 314 00:17:34.200 --> 00:17:41.119 and I mean an entirely foreseeable consequence that was not 315 00:17:41.160 --> 00:17:41.720 for scene. 316 00:17:41.920 --> 00:17:42.440 Yeah. 317 00:17:42.680 --> 00:17:46.640 Didn't someone say in our chat that some that some 318 00:17:46.720 --> 00:17:49.319 of the citizens were like lining up on bridges or 319 00:17:49.359 --> 00:17:55.559 something like that. Yeah, yeah, parents, Yeah, in Israel, like. 320 00:17:55.480 --> 00:18:00.279 All of a sudden, m I think, is your two 321 00:18:00.359 --> 00:18:02.200 over the last couple of days like blew up like 322 00:18:02.279 --> 00:18:07.160 eight eight bridges over the last forty eight hours or so. 323 00:18:07.599 --> 00:18:12.480 Yeah, I mean, bridges are the most understandable with dual 324 00:18:12.519 --> 00:18:16.519 purpose infrastructure, right, I mean, bridges are not a war crime. 325 00:18:17.000 --> 00:18:23.240 But when you start going after electrical grids and and 326 00:18:23.240 --> 00:18:28.119 and energy infrastructure, then you're kind of following the Russian model. 327 00:18:28.160 --> 00:18:32.319 And that's why we're on thin ice. Having lambasted the 328 00:18:32.400 --> 00:18:37.319 Russians quite rightly for what they're doing in Ukraine. Of course, 329 00:18:37.480 --> 00:18:40.079 it's not like minus twenty fucking degrees here in the 330 00:18:40.079 --> 00:18:45.799 Middle East. So but nevertheless, what we were threatening to 331 00:18:45.839 --> 00:18:49.559 do is what's putting us on on thin ice. 332 00:18:52.279 --> 00:18:55.680 Yeah, I mean, that's today from Trump was insane. Imagine 333 00:18:55.720 --> 00:18:58.279 somebody else posts that, like another world leader, you know, 334 00:18:58.480 --> 00:19:01.000 putin talking about Ukraine or I mean er do. 335 00:19:01.240 --> 00:19:06.559 But then normally, you know, the the heads of places 336 00:19:06.599 --> 00:19:12.960 like North Korea or Iran, right, yeah, Well. 337 00:19:12.759 --> 00:19:14.720 My point is like, how would we react, how would 338 00:19:14.720 --> 00:19:16.160 the American you know, America react? 339 00:19:16.200 --> 00:19:18.079 Well, I mean, how have we been reacting? They've been 340 00:19:18.079 --> 00:19:22.279 screaming death to America for forty something years and you know, 341 00:19:23.559 --> 00:19:26.319 this is the really, this is the reason for it. 342 00:19:27.359 --> 00:19:29.960 But now he's saying the exact same thing. 343 00:19:30.160 --> 00:19:34.400 The problem is that that in their pronouncements once the 344 00:19:34.480 --> 00:19:38.880 war started, the Iranians actually, I listen, I do you know, 345 00:19:38.960 --> 00:19:42.279 I'm a US marine at heart. But the Iranians were 346 00:19:42.359 --> 00:19:45.359 quite circumspect. I mean they said, hey, we're going to 347 00:19:45.400 --> 00:19:48.480 continue with the war, but they had an eye on 348 00:19:48.680 --> 00:19:51.400 stratcom messaging. I mean, I'll shut up in a moment 349 00:19:51.440 --> 00:19:56.680 because John's far smarter than me. But it but globally, 350 00:19:57.119 --> 00:20:00.200 and I'm outside the United States right now, Globally, we 351 00:20:00.279 --> 00:20:03.599 didn't win the strat com battle in this wall. Does 352 00:20:03.640 --> 00:20:08.079 a matter how many targets we destroyed. You're talking about 353 00:20:08.440 --> 00:20:13.920 our global audience, and not just countries we don't give 354 00:20:13.920 --> 00:20:16.799 a shit about, but countries that we may well rely on. 355 00:20:17.279 --> 00:20:21.160 We haven't come out looking very good that in this 356 00:20:21.279 --> 00:20:24.119 strategic communication piece, right, Yeah. 357 00:20:23.960 --> 00:20:26.400 I think we do very bad with even just syops generally. 358 00:20:26.559 --> 00:20:30.119 Like back in twenty fourteen, when Isis and Dash came 359 00:20:30.200 --> 00:20:32.400 up and declared the caliphate and they had these high 360 00:20:32.440 --> 00:20:35.039 production value videos of the violence that we're doing and 361 00:20:35.039 --> 00:20:38.039 their training videos and all that, we started to kind 362 00:20:38.079 --> 00:20:40.559 of get after it, especially with Gallant Phoenix and other 363 00:20:40.599 --> 00:20:44.000 programs we were using to try to exploit media associate 364 00:20:44.039 --> 00:20:46.559 with that, but we never got ahead of that and 365 00:20:46.640 --> 00:20:49.160 it was kind of a catchup at all. And even 366 00:20:49.200 --> 00:20:51.279 now if you look on Twitter, all these high production 367 00:20:51.400 --> 00:20:54.640 value Iran regime produced videos of like legos and all 368 00:20:54.680 --> 00:20:57.160 this stuff with the US and all the AI videos of. 369 00:20:57.519 --> 00:20:59.279 Try cool soundtracks too. 370 00:21:00.359 --> 00:21:02.000 Yeah, I mean, they know how the audience is going 371 00:21:02.039 --> 00:21:03.400 to respond to that, and they're doing a really good 372 00:21:03.480 --> 00:21:06.200 job of producing things that they know people will reshare 373 00:21:06.359 --> 00:21:09.079 even if they don't like intrinsically support what the message is. 374 00:21:09.440 --> 00:21:12.079 It looks cool, it's fun to watch, and they're doing 375 00:21:12.079 --> 00:21:12.480 a good. 376 00:21:12.359 --> 00:21:12.880 Job with that. 377 00:21:12.960 --> 00:21:13.960 We've re shared them. 378 00:21:14.880 --> 00:21:19.160 Yeah, yeah, I mean it's far out paced the Trump 379 00:21:19.400 --> 00:21:22.960 dropping shit on a crowd of protesters video, you know, 380 00:21:23.079 --> 00:21:26.480 that little AI thing, far outpace that, So we have 381 00:21:26.559 --> 00:21:27.400 that going for us. 382 00:21:27.519 --> 00:21:30.079 Also, it's kind of interesting watching like Scent Coom like 383 00:21:30.160 --> 00:21:33.960 tweet out like fact checks and stuff like that. Yeah, 384 00:21:34.039 --> 00:21:37.519 because I've never I don't remember that ever being a thing. 385 00:21:40.039 --> 00:21:42.400 And we have potentia set are trained in making these 386 00:21:42.480 --> 00:21:44.759 videos and doing this production and actually can do it 387 00:21:44.799 --> 00:21:47.119 in the military, not just CIA which also can do it, 388 00:21:47.519 --> 00:21:49.920 but like in Scent Coom, you could have sent Coom 389 00:21:50.119 --> 00:21:53.920 producing counter narrative at the same production value level. You know, 390 00:21:53.960 --> 00:21:56.559 we have combat camera whatever we call it now, STRAC 391 00:21:56.720 --> 00:21:59.599 strategic communications. Now I guess we call it their comstrap 392 00:22:00.559 --> 00:22:02.960 can still do that and we're not doing it. It's like, 393 00:22:03.039 --> 00:22:05.680 what this is a domain? The information domain is a domain, 394 00:22:06.240 --> 00:22:08.440 you know, and we need to be our war fighting 395 00:22:08.440 --> 00:22:11.000 functions need to be touching that domain, just like we're 396 00:22:11.039 --> 00:22:13.480 touching the actual physical space. 397 00:22:15.680 --> 00:22:18.480 John, let me ask you, like, is there uh, because 398 00:22:18.519 --> 00:22:21.799 Iran's most of Iran's Internet's out, is there? Is it 399 00:22:21.839 --> 00:22:25.880 difficult for us to reach the Iranian pop population with 400 00:22:25.960 --> 00:22:26.720 that kind of stuff. 401 00:22:27.480 --> 00:22:29.119
