Speaker 1: It's the perfect end to your day.
Speaker 2: Jesse Kelly on seven to ten worn Jesse Kelly Show.
Speaker 2: Let's have some fun on a Monday. You have made
Speaker 2: it through the weekend, and isn't it so exciting to
Speaker 2: start the work week. Of course, we have a great
Speaker 2: show planned for you tonight, as we always do on
Speaker 2: a Medal of Honor Monday, and that's coming up an
Speaker 2: hour from now. We're gonna do a little historical rewind
Speaker 2: to start the show, because I know everyone has Israel
Speaker 2: Iran on their mind. Where are we going? What are
Speaker 2: my feelings when the regime change? No regime change? Where's
Speaker 2: all this stuff going? The Iranian response, all that and
Speaker 2: so much more is coming up in at least the
Speaker 2: first hour. It's gonna take us a while to get
Speaker 2: through all that, but we're gonna give a little bit
Speaker 2: of a historical perspective on those things, and then we're
Speaker 2: going to talk about some domestic issues that matter a lot.
Speaker 2: Technology is still run by the dirty communists. Members of
Speaker 2: Congress like Nancy Pelosi clearly insider trading the state of
Speaker 2: the Democrat Party. One Blue Area is proving why you
Speaker 2: must move if you can all that in so much
Speaker 2: more coming up tonight on the world famous Jesse Kelly Show. Now,
Speaker 2: I have email after email after email about Iran. This
Speaker 2: guy says, I've become more anti war after nineteen years.
Speaker 2: What are your thoughts on this? After a week this
Speaker 2: guy says, Boy, Jesse, did you ever nail it? That's
Speaker 2: because I told everyone last week that it was coming.
Speaker 2: We were going to start dropping bombs. Jesse, your take
Speaker 2: on Iran being bombed this weekend was incredible. That's why listen. All. Okay,
Speaker 2: so there's a lot, there's a lot on your mind,
Speaker 2: and so I'm warning you now the history we're about
Speaker 2: to do is heading in that direction. Because regime change
Speaker 2: is a term that's being thrown around a lot in
Speaker 2: various ways. There are a lot of people out there
Speaker 2: saying we're not in the regime change business doing that.
Speaker 3: It's in a regime change move. This was designed to
Speaker 3: degrade and or destroy three nuclear sites related to their
Speaker 3: nuclear weaponization ambitions. I don't like the regime, but we're
Speaker 3: not into the regime change business here.
Speaker 2: Okay, that's pretty clear from the Secretary of State, Pete
Speaker 2: hagsv came out and said.
Speaker 4: This mission has not been about regime change. The President
Speaker 4: authorized a precision operation.
Speaker 2: Okay, there's been a lot of that talk. Sounds good,
Speaker 2: but there's some mixed messaging out there. Of course, Donald
Speaker 2: Trump came out social media. This is what he said.
Speaker 2: It's not politically correct to use the term regime change,
Speaker 2: but if the current Iranian regime is unable to make
Speaker 2: Iran great again, why wouldn't there be a regime change? Okay,
Speaker 2: we have several US senators saying this.
Speaker 5: We still certainly need to have regime change in Iran.
Speaker 5: This is the same regime that's threatened America and Americans.
Speaker 2: Time for regime change.
Speaker 5: And I believe that this president should be given a
Speaker 5: fair amount of leeway.
Speaker 2: To affect that.
Speaker 1: It's time to close the chapter on the Iran and
Speaker 1: Iotolin his henchmen. Let's close that chapter soon and start
Speaker 1: a new chapter in the Mideast, one of tolerance to
Speaker 1: hope in peace.
Speaker 2: Let's pause everything for a moment, and let's discuss history
Speaker 2: in a couple of different ways. Because we're going to
Speaker 2: talk about getting into a war while pretending like you
Speaker 2: don't want to get into war. We're going to talk
Speaker 2: about regime change. We're going to talk about lies, We're
Speaker 2: going to approach this whole thing as we have the
Speaker 2: entire time, not hysterical, not no war ever ah, and
Speaker 2: not kill them all, not God sort them out. I Nope, nope,
Speaker 2: I'm not doing that. We're going to approach this soberly,
Speaker 2: and we're going to analyze this like adults, you and me. First,
Speaker 2: let's go with the regime change aspect of it. Why
Speaker 2: is that even a thing? Well, let's do some history.
Speaker 2: This would be very very basic. For people who know history,
Speaker 2: you will know this. For those who don't, look, history's
Speaker 2: not taught very well in most schools. For those who don't,
Speaker 2: this might be some new information. Let's rewind. Oh the
Speaker 2: way back to the early nineteen hundreds. World War One
Speaker 2: is what we're doing here. Germany, France, Britain, Russia, Austria, Hungary.
Speaker 2: That that was a country back then. They all get
Speaker 2: in a nasty, nasty, hot war known as World War One.
Speaker 2: It's bad. Millions of people are dying. The world is horrified.
Speaker 2: The world is horrified. Okay, the world had never ever
Speaker 2: seen casualty numbers like this. It just it blew people
Speaker 2: away that that was even possible. All Right, World War
Speaker 2: One ends. It ends, and Germany lost. Germany lost, and
Speaker 2: the people who won the Frances, the Britons, US. We
Speaker 2: made a choice, and this choice has been crushed because
Speaker 2: hindsight is twenty twenty and because of how it worked
Speaker 2: out in the end. But the thinking at the time
Speaker 2: was this, we've all lost a lot of lives, We've
Speaker 2: all lost a lot of treasure here. It was clearly
Speaker 2: Germany's fault, which let's pause for a second, and that's debatable,
Speaker 2: but anyway, at the time, it's clearly Germany's fault. Germany
Speaker 2: was the bad guy. Germany did all this. It's all
Speaker 2: the dirty German's fault. So since it was their fault,
Speaker 2: shouldn't they be punished for it? Shouldn't they pay for everything?
Speaker 2: Shouldn't they? And so brutal, brutal punishment was brought down
Speaker 2: on Germany, from US, from France, from Britain. Brutal punishment,
Speaker 2: the kind of punishment first of all the reparations. The
Speaker 2: other nations essentially told Germany, hey, sorry, you lost. You
Speaker 2: need to pay for everything, our war, your war, everything. Now,
Speaker 2: this is a country whose economy is already in shambles.
Speaker 2: You just got done fighting a multi year world war.
Speaker 2: The economy is already bad, and then we tell them, hey,
Speaker 2: you need to pay for everything. This would be the
Speaker 2: equivalent of you, you declare bankruptcy because you've lost it all,
Speaker 2: you can't pay your bills, and then your mother shows
Speaker 2: up and tells you that you owe her two hundred
Speaker 2: and fifty thousand dollars because she spent all that time
Speaker 2: raising you. You don't, you don't have a penny at
Speaker 2: this point in time. So we did that. Oh but
Speaker 2: we did something else that may have been as damaging
Speaker 2: as the reparations. We said, hmm, by the way, on
Speaker 2: top of all this money you're going to need to pay,
Speaker 2: we're going to go ahead and take all your most
Speaker 2: valuable territory. So that would be the equivalent of your
Speaker 2: mother showing up after you declared bankruptcy demanding two hundred
Speaker 2: and fifty thousand dollars, and then work calling you that
Speaker 2: day and saying, by the way, you're fired. We took
Speaker 2: away the most valuable territory, the most valuable parts of
Speaker 2: their economy. It was a brutal chastisement of Germany. How
Speaker 2: about that Chris College word chastisement. Anyway, we crushed Germany Germany.
Speaker 2: It's all your fault. We crushed them. And I know
Speaker 2: we all look back now and talk about how horrible
Speaker 2: that decision was. I get that at the time, it
Speaker 2: made sense to people Germany, it's all your fault, you pay. Okay?
Speaker 2: Where that lead? Well, you took a large, modern country
Speaker 2: and you beat them up, and once you had beaten
Speaker 2: them up, you then started kicking dirt in their face
Speaker 2: and spitting on them. The people of Germany were crushed,
Speaker 2: economically crushed, spiritually crushed, national pride wounded beyond measure, a
Speaker 2: down in out people you've seen. If you haven't seen,
Speaker 2: I would actually encourage you to go look this up.
Speaker 2: Pictures online of people in Germany post World War One?
Speaker 2: Germany walking around with wheelbarrows full of cash? Are these
Speaker 2: rich people know? The cash was so worthless? People would
Speaker 2: haul it around and start fires with it. You think
Speaker 2: you've got inflation problems, which I know you do. I'm
Speaker 2: not dismissing those, but they knew about inflation. A people
Speaker 2: completely smashed, and then because they were down and out,
Speaker 2: this happens when a country is down and out, just
Speaker 2: they heads up. Because Germany was down and out, groups
Speaker 2: started to fight for power. Different groups. There were communist groups.
Speaker 2: Obviously you know about the Nazis. You know who ends up,
Speaker 2: you end you know in hindsight, who ends up winning
Speaker 2: this whole thing. But the Nazis weren't the only group
Speaker 2: in Germany fighting for power. There were many different groups
Speaker 2: in Germany fighting for power, but all of them, virtually
Speaker 2: all of them, were selling a similar message. There was
Speaker 2: a common thread in all the messaging, and the common
Speaker 2: thread was you shouldn't have to live like this, You
Speaker 2: shouldn't have to take this. This shouldn't be this way.
Speaker 2: You pour, you beaten down wheelbarrels full of cash, because
Speaker 2: our money's worth this. There should be something better. And
Speaker 2: of course, you know spoiler alert, you know how that
Speaker 2: ended up. An insane, hate ful demagogue named Adolf Hitler
Speaker 2: who gave an amazing speech. He was infamous for it.
Speaker 2: He would started out in the beer halls giving it,
Speaker 2: and he got so famous for his speeches people would
Speaker 2: gather around just to hear him. He became the voice
Speaker 2: of this growing Nazi party, Nazis' takeover Europe. Nazis get
Speaker 2: us all into World War two. Just fast forwarding through
Speaker 2: all these things, then we end up post World War Two.
Speaker 2: We will start again there in just a moment. Like
Speaker 2: I said, this is a very abridged history. I realized
Speaker 2: I glossed over just a couple things. It is The
Speaker 2: Jesse Kelly Show on a wonderful, wonderful Monday, reminding you
Speaker 2: you can email us, and you should. We love your
Speaker 2: emails Jesse at Jesse kellyshow dot com. We are talking
Speaker 2: in a very roundabout way. Israel, Iran, where we're going,
Speaker 2: where we're at. But first we're addressing the idea, the
Speaker 2: concept of regime change. That term has been thrown around.
Speaker 2: We're not doing it. We are doing it well, I
Speaker 2: think we need it. No, we'd never do that thing, Okay,
Speaker 2: So where did it come from? We talked about post
Speaker 2: World War One in the opening of the show. Post
Speaker 2: World War One, we decided, well, regime change, that's your
Speaker 2: freaking problem. We're just gonna bomb the living daylights out
Speaker 2: of you. Germany. You lost World War One, give us
Speaker 2: all your money, Screw you, it's your problem now. That
Speaker 2: led directly to the rise of Adolf Hitler in Nazi Germany.
Speaker 2: Then World War Two comes the largest, most horrible, most
Speaker 2: destructive event in all of human history. Death and carnage
Speaker 2: like people had never seen. And by the time that
Speaker 2: war was done, they were looking at each other, the
Speaker 2: leaders of the world were looking at each other. And
Speaker 2: with that kind of death, with that kind of sorrow
Speaker 2: and sadness, you start asking questions, could we have avoided this?
Speaker 2: What did we do wrong? This was something that should
Speaker 2: have never happened. So what did we do wrong? And
Speaker 2: they came to the conclusion, a conclusion that is widely
Speaker 2: accepted today, that it was that punishment of Germany after
Speaker 2: World War One that led to Hitler's rise. Therefore, once
Speaker 2: you defeat a nation in war, you should step in
Speaker 2: and help them rebuild their country in a different way. Now,
Speaker 2: of course they're gonna have to give up some things
Speaker 2: and whatnot, but you're gonna help them form a new government.
Speaker 2: Part of it will be their choice, part of it'll
Speaker 2: be yours. But help them build a new government, help
Speaker 2: them build a new country. It was I mean, it's
Speaker 2: an odd thing, but understandable. And this is gonna sound
Speaker 2: like I'm defending regime change, but I'm explaining how this
Speaker 2: idea came to be. Let's simply look at Japan post
Speaker 2: World War Two. Now, we did the same thing in
Speaker 2: Europe that that's a little different. But in Japan post
Speaker 2: World War Two, remember we pounded Japan to dust. Everybody
Speaker 2: knows about the two atom bombs. The atom bombs were
Speaker 2: a fraction of what we did to Japan. We carpet
Speaker 2: bombed almost every Japanese major city. We pulverized that country.
Speaker 2: They give up, and we as a country did one
Speaker 2: of the kindest things I think a major country has
Speaker 2: ever done. We moved in just to help them rebuild,
Speaker 2: and then when we were done, we moved out. I'm
Speaker 2: not even kidding Douglas MacArthur, who everybody knows. General MacArthur
Speaker 2: really headed up a lot of this whole thing. But
Speaker 2: the United States of America moved into Japan, not to
Speaker 2: conquer it, not to take it over, to say, hey, nah,
Speaker 2: you can You're not going to be able to have
Speaker 2: an emperor anymore, that's a no, but we'll help you
Speaker 2: build a new government. Well, in fact, all these cities
Speaker 2: that American bomb just vaporized, well help you build those two.
Speaker 2: Let's rebuild this thing. And once we rebuilt Japan, we
Speaker 2: moved out. For the most part, I realized we still
Speaker 2: have a presence there in Oklahwa. But for the most part,
Speaker 2: America said, hey, glad we got you back on your feet.
Speaker 2: Glad hostilities are over. We're going home. Now. That is
Speaker 2: a really, really important thing to understand about American foreign policy. Now.
Speaker 2: I'm not just talking history because I nerd out on it.
Speaker 2: I'm talking about this specific time because this specific time
Speaker 2: has governed so much of how we view foreign policy
Speaker 2: and specifically war now, because how has it worked out
Speaker 2: for us? What we did in Japan pretty freaking well.
Speaker 2: Japan is not only a really cool country, which I adore,
Speaker 2: but they are a close ally now, a very close ally,
Speaker 2: and a strategically necessary military ally in an area of
Speaker 2: the world where China can dominate it. What we did
Speaker 2: with Japan post World War Two, it's hard to describe
Speaker 2: it as anything but an unbelievable success. We got, we rebuilt,
Speaker 2: we helped them, we're friends now. It worked out for everybody.
Speaker 2: It worked out for everybody, And you know what that
Speaker 2: was regime change. There's no other way to look at it.
Speaker 2: We did a regime change and it worked and still
Speaker 2: works today and works very well. Now let's fast forward.
Speaker 2: Vietnam comes and yes, we are out to stop communist
Speaker 2: aggression and South Vietnam is going to be our our
Speaker 2: friend in this whole endeavor. We're going to stop this
Speaker 2: North Vietnamese aggression. But South Vietnam had a terribly corrupt government,
Speaker 2: terribly corrupt government. Look, the North Vietnamese government was horrible
Speaker 2: and evil. South Vietnamese government was also horrible, corrupt and evil.
Speaker 2: We did the best we could to sell that to
Speaker 2: the people of South Vietnam, and our inability to sell
Speaker 2: that to them it was a contributing factor in US
Speaker 2: losing in Vietnam. Now, let's get past Vietnam and get
Speaker 2: to the War on Terror. And you remember, you remember,
Speaker 2: well nine to eleven, we wake up, we have our
Speaker 2: towers destroyed by some dirtball terrorist group named al Qaeda,
Speaker 2: and we're angry, were sad, and we want to know
Speaker 2: who's responsible. And we'll talk about that from there, and
Speaker 2: regime change and how all this came to be. It
Speaker 2: is the Jesse Kelly Show. Remember you can download any
Speaker 2: part of the show if you miss it on iHeart, Spotify, iTunes.
Speaker 2: Doing a little rewind here discussing American foreign policy, what
Speaker 2: it was, how did all this regime change talk come
Speaker 2: to be? So we did World War One and we
Speaker 2: learned painful lessons from there, and then we did World
Speaker 2: War Two and we learned lessons on how we handle
Speaker 2: the aftermath. And the lesson, the ultimate lesson learned by
Speaker 2: America really the world, was you can't just beat somebody up.
Speaker 2: When you beat them up, you need to help them
Speaker 2: back up when they're done, after they've given up, help
Speaker 2: them up, get them dressed up, spruced up, get them
Speaker 2: back on their feet. Otherwise they may come back and
Speaker 2: take revenge on you. One day, another Hitler may rise.
Speaker 2: All right, brings us to the g WoT, the Global
Speaker 2: War on Terror, the g WoT. The towers go down
Speaker 2: on nine to eleven. George book Bush, he's president at
Speaker 2: the time, you remember all this, decides, Hey, let's go
Speaker 2: into Afghanistan and let's go get this Issama bin Ladinghuy.
Speaker 2: Now this this may be applicable to today. We don't know.
Speaker 2: I hope it's not, but it may be. We went
Speaker 2: in there doing it the right way. We handled it
Speaker 2: initially the right way. And what I mean by the
Speaker 2: right way was there was no topol government talk, there
Speaker 2: was no regime change talk. We sent in all the
Speaker 2: specops types, all the Green Berets, the spooks, the CIA guys,
Speaker 2: the seals. We we sent in all those guys, and
Speaker 2: they were in there for a mission, a specific mission,
Speaker 2: and that mission was hunt down and kill Wassama bin Laden.
Speaker 2: And I don't think anybody, or at least not many
Speaker 2: people would have an issue with that. The man responsible
Speaker 2: for killing three thousand Americans on nine to eleven, our
Speaker 2: country has to go kill him. You have to do
Speaker 2: that to send a message to anyone else who may
Speaker 2: consider doing it. The world has to know you do
Speaker 2: something like that, you will die. I demand that of
Speaker 2: my government. I demand my government go do those kinds
Speaker 2: of things. Otherwise why would I even be a citizen.
Speaker 2: But somewhere along the way, and we can all debate
Speaker 2: reasons for this, somewhere along the way we decided, you know,
Speaker 2: forget about this small footprint, takeout Bin Laden stuff. Why
Speaker 2: don't we remove this Afghanistan government, these Taliban guys. Why
Speaker 2: don't we just get rid of all these people, and then,
Speaker 2: like we did in Japan, like we did in Europe,
Speaker 2: we'll get rid of the bad guys and we'll build
Speaker 2: them something new. We may even have a wonderful ally,
Speaker 2: and I know you're probably rolling your eyes now again
Speaker 2: hindsight twenty twenty being what it is, and of course
Speaker 2: same thing in Iraq. Saddam Hussein's bad guy. It was
Speaker 2: a bad guy by any measure. We should take him out.
Speaker 2: He's evil, he's is he's that Okay, no argument there. Well,
Speaker 2: let's just go take him out, wipe out his army,
Speaker 2: and then after we've taken out the bad guy, just
Speaker 2: like we did in Japan, just like we did in
Speaker 2: World War Two, we will bring a new form of government,
Speaker 2: we will help them rebuild, and it'll all work out.
Speaker 2: But it didn't all work out, did it? By any measure?
Speaker 2: The Global War on Terror was not a success. And
Speaker 2: that freaking guts me to say. Probably, I doubt very
Speaker 2: much you take any pleasure in hearing it, whether you
Speaker 2: thought in it or not. It's not pleasant to think about.
Speaker 2: But we didn't replace the Afghan government and rebuild it.
Speaker 2: We spent twenty years there in the same group we
Speaker 2: were going to kick out. Took over five seconds after
Speaker 2: we left Iraq. Obviously you know all that. What went wrong,
Speaker 2: A lot of things went wrong. One of the main
Speaker 2: things that went wrong was we didn't. We didn't take
Speaker 2: into account the type of people we were dealing with,
Speaker 2: the type of culture we were dealing with. And here's
Speaker 2: what I mean. In Japan. Japan's a very different society,
Speaker 2: famously different. I love them for their differences, but some
Speaker 2: people don't care for it. I think they're fascinating, wonderful people.
Speaker 2: They are very moral people. Let me let me clarify this.
Speaker 2: I'm not saying they're any better than Americans or anything else,
Speaker 2: but they do have a code there, a moral code,
Speaker 2: big families, grandparents, parents, kids, close. They are very attached
Speaker 2: to their country. They were, for lack of a better
Speaker 2: way to put it, they were a people ripe for
Speaker 2: a new, better form of government. They were a people
Speaker 2: that was ready to accept it and thrive with it.
Speaker 2: They were ready for it. That's not Afghanistan. Totally different
Speaker 2: history there, totally different type of people, tribal conflict, religious
Speaker 2: aspects to religious divisions, to totally different kind of society.
Speaker 2: Exact same thing in Iraq, Iraq, exact same thing we
Speaker 2: have she Hees versus sun a Dom's bath party. And
Speaker 2: then of course Iran gets involved there and you have
Speaker 2: the jihadas and you didn't have this homogeneous, unified society
Speaker 2: of people who were already prepped and ready for something better.
Speaker 2: I'll put it to you this way. A good career,
Speaker 2: good career, let's call it an air traffic controller. They
Speaker 2: make good money, right, they make very good money. And
Speaker 2: I realized it's a stressful job, and it's a good job.
Speaker 2: Now there are two different people in front of me.
Speaker 2: One guy, completely put together, comes from a great family.
Speaker 2: We're hard work, did some sports, has a good moral founding,
Speaker 2: goes to church every Sunday. Sorry, Chris goes to church
Speaker 2: on every Sunday. I hand him an air traffic controller job. Hey,
Speaker 2: here you go. We're gonna put you through some training
Speaker 2: and then boom, here's one hundred and fifty thousand dollars
Speaker 2: a year job. There you go. How's that guy gonna
Speaker 2: do You've never even met him. I just made him
Speaker 2: up in my mind. You're probably gonna do it, okay,
Speaker 2: isn't he? Then there's another guy, disastrous family life. He's
Speaker 2: been divorced four times, in an out of rehab several
Speaker 2: times his entire life, been in jail a few times.
Speaker 2: I offer him the exact same deal. Hey, we're gonna
Speaker 2: train you up for two months and then into the tower.
Speaker 2: You go, how's he gonna do? He's not ready, He's
Speaker 2: not ready for that job. Doesn't matter what he's not
Speaker 2: ready for the job. Regime change can work and it
Speaker 2: can't work. It can end with a great guy having
Speaker 2: a wonderful job, and it can end with two planes
Speaker 2: colliding and six hundred people dying. Is the guy ready
Speaker 2: or not? That brings us to where we are now,
Speaker 2: where we are, where we're going Israel. Remember, we have
Speaker 2: different interests out there too, in different interests inside of
Speaker 2: each country Israel. Understandably, once the Iranian regime gone, it's
Speaker 2: a very understandable thing if you're in that country and
Speaker 2: every day it's a new stabbing, a new terrorist attack,
Speaker 2: a new threat, a new a new this, anew that,
Speaker 2: and ninety percent of the threat you receive and attacks
Speaker 2: you receive are in some way connected to funded by
Speaker 2: thought up by Iran. The same country. Well, it's the
Speaker 2: most understandable thing in the world. When given an opportunity
Speaker 2: to take out that government that's been doing that to you,
Speaker 2: that you would want to step up and say, okay,
Speaker 2: it's on that boys, Especially after October seventh, especially after
Speaker 2: we watch a thousand people die, especially after you know
Speaker 2: what we are done. Opportunities here, there's more of an
Speaker 2: appetite for it nationally and internationally than we've ever had before.
Speaker 2: Let's go kill all of Iranian's leadership. So that's one motivation,
Speaker 2: and it's an understandable motivation. And then let's talk about
Speaker 2: us here at home, the tightrope Donald Trump has to
Speaker 2: walk with competing and and where we are and where
Speaker 2: we're going. We'll continue this in a moment. Is the
Speaker 2: Jesse Kelly Show reminding you you can and should email
Speaker 2: the show you love, your hate, your death threats, whatever
Speaker 2: you'd like Jesse at Jesse kellyshow dot com. So back
Speaker 2: to our present situation here, Israel wants the Iranian regime gone.
Speaker 2: I understand earlier today, I'm sure you already saw the
Speaker 2: former of the Shaw, the guy who would take over,
Speaker 2: is calling for regime chain. We have a lot of
Speaker 2: very powerful men in our country calling for regime change.
Speaker 2: We most certainly need to have regime change in Iran.
Speaker 5: This is the same regime that's threatened America and Americans time.
Speaker 2: For regime change.
Speaker 1: And I believe that this president should be given a
Speaker 1: fair amount of leeway to fact that it's time to
Speaker 1: close the chapter on the Iranian iotolin his henchmen. Let's
Speaker 1: close that chapter soon and start a new chapter in
Speaker 1: the Mideast.
Speaker 2: Tolerance to open pink got pundits all over the television
Speaker 2: shed television set not shet shed is not that's not
Speaker 2: a thing. That's that doesn't make any sense anyway. Here
Speaker 2: they are.
Speaker 1: How do you feel about regime change as a US goal? Well,
Speaker 1: I think it should be America's declared policy. The regime
Speaker 1: itself is the problem here, has been all along.
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, So where does Donald Trump go from here?
Speaker 2: How do we handle things from here? Well, what Donald
Speaker 2: Trump very clearly wanted and wants. What he wanted was
Speaker 2: let me go drop a few bombs and call it good.
Speaker 2: We practically screamed that we dropped a few bombs, these
Speaker 2: big bunker buster bombs fired, all these Tamahawk missiles, wiped
Speaker 2: out these nuclear facilities they had, and then everybody in
Speaker 2: this administration came out and said, all right, you better
Speaker 2: let that be it. Don't attack Hey, we're good now, right,
Speaker 2: we're good.
Speaker 4: Nowfore, shown if the Iranians attack us, they're going to
Speaker 4: be met with overwhelming force. And I don't think the
Speaker 4: President could be clear about this. If you look at
Speaker 4: what we did yesterday, John, we did not attack the
Speaker 4: nation of Iran. We did not attack any civilian targets.
Speaker 4: We didn't even attack military targets outside of the three
Speaker 4: nuclear weapons facilities that we thought were important to accomplish
Speaker 4: our goal of preventing a Ran from having a nuclear weapon.
Speaker 2: So how a Ran? All right? What's he saying there?
Speaker 2: I understand that that can be a little shoulder shrug
Speaker 2: inducing when you hear what we didn't even attack Iran.
Speaker 2: We just bombed their nuclear facilities. But what are they doing?
Speaker 2: Donald Trump? The Trump administration clearly wants that to be it.
Speaker 2: He wants to walk the tightrope of hey, we got involved,
Speaker 2: we helped Iran. Now can't have a nuclear weapon. We
Speaker 2: helped our ally, Israel. Look at us, Look at what
Speaker 2: we did. We did it at virtually no risk to us.
Speaker 2: We're good now, right, Hey, Ron, We're good now right.
Speaker 2: And Iran with that attack earlier today, I'm sure you
Speaker 2: already saw, in case you didn't, they launched six missiles
Speaker 2: at Qatar. They warned publicly they were getting ready to
Speaker 2: attack US. They launched six missiles at our base in Qatar.
Speaker 2: They launched six missiles at our people, but they were
Speaker 2: all easily intercepted. Nobody heard, and it almost looks like
Speaker 2: a face saving thing for Iran. It almost looked like
Speaker 2: Iran saying, hey, we told you we were gonna hit
Speaker 2: you back for what you did. Now we did, and
Speaker 2: now we're definitely good. So we might be good. But
Speaker 2: here is the issue, and it's a big issue, and
Speaker 2: I don't know where we're going to go. The big
Speaker 2: issue is there are a lot of voices out there
Speaker 2: and a lot of people who hold power out there
Speaker 2: with motivations that are different from the Trump administration's motivations.
Speaker 2: The Trump administration JD Vance in particular. They are aware,
Speaker 2: very aware that America itself, America is totally fine, and
Speaker 2: every poll shows this. America is totally fine. The American
Speaker 2: people are totally fine dropping some bombs on Iranian nuclear facilities.
Speaker 2: That has overwhelming popular support in this country. The American
Speaker 2: people saw that and said, yeah, sounds good. Get them.
Speaker 2: They are also very very aware the second American boots
Speaker 2: touched the ground in Iran that public support vanishes That's
Speaker 2: why jdvans through this.
Speaker 4: Se I certainly empathize with Americans who are exhausted after
Speaker 4: twenty five years of foreign entanglements in the Middle East.
Speaker 4: I understand the concern, But the difference is that back
Speaker 4: then we had dump presidents, and now we have a
Speaker 4: president who actually knows how to accomplish America's national security.
Speaker 2: The Trump administration wants to be done, show up, drop
Speaker 2: the kids off at the pool, meaning drop a couple
Speaker 2: bunker buster bombs, go home, and call it a day.
Speaker 2: That's not what Israel wants. That's not what the former
Speaker 2: leader of Iran wants. Well his son is that what
Speaker 2: American senators want certainly doesn't sound like it. Those senators
Speaker 2: those I keep playing this little montage James Langford, Tom Tillis,
Speaker 2: Lindsey Graham. You know what all three of those guys
Speaker 2: have in common.
Speaker 5: This These guys most certainly need to have regime change
Speaker 5: in Iran. This is the same regime that's threatened America
Speaker 5: and Americans time for regime change.
Speaker 2: And I believe that this Yeah, you got it. They're
Speaker 2: all Republicans. I don't know where this is going to go.
Speaker 2: And yes, that rhyme Chris, I can see the admiration
Speaker 2: on your face. I don't know where this is going
Speaker 2: to go. I don't nobody does. I have a pretty
Speaker 2: good gauge on what the Trump administration wants, but remember
Speaker 2: they're not the only ones calling the shots. What about
Speaker 2: the intelligence community? What do you think they want? How
Speaker 2: have they? How has the American intelligence community operated when
Speaker 2: it comes to foreign entanglements trying to get us out
Speaker 2: of them? Were trying to keep us in them? The Pentagon?
Speaker 2: I realize Pete Hegseth has the right idea, certainly saying
Speaker 2: the right thing.
Speaker 4: His mission was not and has not been, about regime change.
Speaker 2: Everyone at the Pentagon feel that way. How have all
Speaker 2: those wonderful generals and amirals at the Pentagon, how have
Speaker 2: they handled America's foreign entanglements trying to get us out
Speaker 2: of them? I don't know where we're going to go
Speaker 2: from here. I know the journey is dangerous and we
Speaker 2: will see where it goes. All right, We're gonna just
Speaker 2: stay with it and see where it goes. I am
Speaker 2: after Medal of honor Monday. I am going to bring
Speaker 2: up another uncomfortable historical thing, and it may make you
Speaker 2: square them in your chair a little bit. But it's
Speaker 2: worth discussing. But we need to go do Metal of
Speaker 2: Honor Monday first, and we need to honor a hero first.
Speaker 2: Before we get to that, we need to take care
Speaker 2: of our dogs with actual nutrition. Why do you think
Speaker 2: your dog food is brown? How did I know that?
Speaker 2: Because all dog food is brown. It's not because I'm smart.
Speaker 2: Dog food's brown. Why because they kill everything in it?
Speaker 2: Why because it lasts longer on the shelf fresh things.
Speaker 2: You know, it's the same way it works for human food.
Speaker 2: Fresh things. Things that aren't loaded with preservatives, they go
Speaker 2: bad quickly. That's part of how it works. You load
Speaker 2: something down with preservatives, you kill everything in it. You know,
Speaker 2: you've seen those pictures of the fast food cheeseburger that
Speaker 2: looks the same after twenty five years sitting in the open.
Speaker 2: That's dog food. That's what we give our dogs. Why
Speaker 2: don't you put actual nutrition on your dog's food. Sprinkle
Speaker 2: Roughgreens on your dog's food all the vitamins and minerals
Speaker 2: and probiotics and everything your dog needs to live a long,
Speaker 2: happy life. Call eight three three three three my Dog,
Speaker 2: or go to Roughgreens dot com. Slash jesse. All right,
