Speaker 1: I think it's hard sometimes just to stop and realize
Speaker 1: the moment in history that we're living through. And obviously
Speaker 1: you don't have that many peak moments every day is important,
Speaker 1: but we are living through, no question, right now, one
Speaker 1: of the most important watershed crossroad moments in modern world history,
Speaker 1: and it's unfolding before our eyes.
Speaker 2: And as we sit here.
Speaker 1: Right now at five oh six mountain time, we have
Speaker 1: no idea whether it's going to be two days, two months,
Speaker 1: something in between. But we know the world will never
Speaker 1: be the same, and we know it is highly likely
Speaker 1: that this evil regime will be gone in Iran, particularly
Speaker 1: after today. President Trump publicly came out with the flag
Speaker 1: in the ground, unconditional surrender, nothing less. He doesn't do
Speaker 1: that unless he's certain that's going to happen. How much
Speaker 1: pain will there be? We can be certain there will
Speaker 1: be a lot of pain. Evil Historically we look at it.
Speaker 1: Evil never dies easily. That's the nature of evil, and
Speaker 1: so this evil regime will take a lot of innocent
Speaker 1: people with it on the way out probably and pray
Speaker 1: it doesn't, but that's likely what's going to happen here.
Speaker 1: It's just part of this cleansing cycle we've seen throughout
Speaker 1: human history when good overcomes evil, and evil just has
Speaker 1: this massive surge and spurt of killing as as it
Speaker 1: gives up its existence. So I think that's what we
Speaker 1: have ahead of us. I think it's going to unfold
Speaker 1: sooner than later. Just within the last ten minutes, the
Speaker 1: United States is closing its embassy this Wednesday through Friday.
Speaker 1: This Wednesday through Friday, it's embassy in Jerusalem, and CNN
Speaker 1: reporting that President Trump considering US military strikes in Iran
Speaker 1: following the meeting long meetings today in the Situation Room.
Speaker 1: New York Times reporting that Iran, and I'm sure it's
Speaker 1: well sourced there is considering retaliatory strikes on US basis. Now.
Speaker 1: I have to believe part of President Trump's calculation is
Speaker 1: expecting something like that, and that that would then be
Speaker 1: the green light, you know, for direct US air support
Speaker 1: of israel I don't know. I don't have the knowledge.
Speaker 1: I don't have access to classified information. I don't know
Speaker 1: whether these many reports that Israel as phenomenally brilliant and
Speaker 1: courageous as and ineffective as it's been can't get into
Speaker 1: these deep, deep bunkers without US bunker busters. I don't
Speaker 1: know if those reports are just urban myths or true.
Speaker 1: But certainly, as Trump has said, President Trump is said
Speaker 1: if there are attacks on US basis, any kind of
Speaker 1: attack on any US citizen or forces, that there will
Speaker 1: be a massive response. So he may well be be
Speaker 1: expecting something like that, and that would then be the
Speaker 1: trigger to take that next step from the US end.
Speaker 1: All right, let's get to the phones. I want to
Speaker 1: get you some hot sound as well. Work in Texters,
Speaker 1: particularly those who disagree with me, and I do think
Speaker 1: we'll play some of that Tucker Carlson sound critical of
Speaker 1: the President, and I agree with the President's approach. But
Speaker 1: in a matter this important, I think it's even even
Speaker 1: more critical that we hear all of the opposing views,
Speaker 1: and we hear their entire reasoning. I think that's very
Speaker 1: very important. Now, when we went to break, we were
Speaker 1: talking with a gentleman. I don't know if he's just
Speaker 1: pulling our leg or if he really is supporting the
Speaker 1: evil things he appears to have called the show to support.
Speaker 1: But we're going to find out together. Take a trip
Speaker 1: back down to beautiful Colorado spring. Steve, you're still with us.
Speaker 3: Yes, you asked me, do you think nine or October
Speaker 3: seven was justified? But in doing that, you deflected from
Speaker 3: my argument that taking thousands, but tens of thousands of
Speaker 3: Palestinians for throwing rocks for ten years at a time
Speaker 3: is what triggered the whole thing, and that was equally unjustified.
Speaker 3: And I think it was calculated to foment war. I
Speaker 3: think it goes back to the Crusades, and there's an
Speaker 3: unholy alliance between US and Israel, and it's dragging the
Speaker 3: goods used down with them. Not only America, it's anti America.
Speaker 3: What Israel stands for. It stands for spine assassinations, shutting
Speaker 3: down free speech, starting wars, killing, committing holocaust literally as
Speaker 3: we are watching. And Trump is a chump when it
Speaker 3: comes to Israel. I like a lot of what Trump does,
Speaker 3: but when it comes to Israel, I don't know what's
Speaker 3: wrong with this book.
Speaker 2: Let's start there.
Speaker 1: I know you have more, but I want to take
Speaker 1: it piece by piece, and I hope before the end
Speaker 1: of this call I can get an understanding as to
Speaker 1: where this animosity toward Israel comes from, because I think
Speaker 1: you've got it backwards. But first, in terms of your history,
Speaker 1: that that this is all caused by Israel arresting a
Speaker 1: bunch of rock throwers. You need to you need to
Speaker 1: sue your history teacher. That that's where you need to
Speaker 1: start this thing.
Speaker 3: Second, in the news that they have had to release
Speaker 3: ends of thousands already, Yeah.
Speaker 2: No such thing.
Speaker 1: But let's get back to the core question, Steve, because
Speaker 1: I think it's so important for everybody listening to be
Speaker 1: able to h to make their own decisions about what
Speaker 1: you have to say. And that is a direct answer
Speaker 1: to the question, do you think October seven was justified?
Speaker 3: I think it was welcomed by Yahoo and pray for it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know what I'm going You know what I'm
Speaker 1: going to do here, my friend, and I think you've
Speaker 1: already seen that, more so than probably anybody else on air.
Speaker 1: I'm willing to give you time, even though I find
Speaker 1: your views to be completely obscene and reprehensible. But I'm
Speaker 1: willing to give you time because I'm not afraid of
Speaker 1: your ideas. But I'm not going to waste our listener's time.
Speaker 1: If you refuse to answer seminal direct question.
Speaker 3: I'll ask your question. What's your question?
Speaker 1: You know, I'll ask it again. You know what it is.
Speaker 1: Do you believe the October seven attacks, including the rape
Speaker 1: of Israeli women, the murder of children, the burning of children?
Speaker 1: Do you think those attacks were justified?
Speaker 3: I think they were not justified, But I also say
Speaker 3: that Israel is just as unjust and its provocative behavior
Speaker 3: that I think is designed to annihilate Muslims and work
Speaker 3: for the crusades. Going back to this a little royal family.
Speaker 1: A little more specific, they're my friend, k can you
Speaker 1: show me what Israel has done that would even remotely
Speaker 1: compare to that?
Speaker 3: Well, besides the genocide and the holocaust that they have
Speaker 3: just committed of thirty eight ninety forty thousand people's lives
Speaker 3: for harboring terrorists basically and depriving them of recovery and
Speaker 3: all that, and trying to run them out and turn
Speaker 3: it into a casino for Trump. Okay, so than that,
Speaker 3: now they have taken over. They have. They have taken
Speaker 3: over on media. Yeah, yes they have. That's why you
Speaker 3: don't hear any DISSENTTV ME hold on, Steve.
Speaker 1: At this point, we're either into your pulling our leg
Speaker 1: or this is Looney Tunes stuff. So what I what
Speaker 1: I really want to understand, is where this level of
Speaker 1: hatred and animosity comes from.
Speaker 2: Because you made it.
Speaker 3: I'll tell you, I'll tell you. And I like the Jews,
Speaker 3: I used to like Israel, never raised prejudice. But if
Speaker 3: you go to Lenin murder truth dot com and when
Speaker 3: you see a photograph of even King getting John Lennon's
Speaker 3: last autograph, and you find out that is really the
Speaker 3: ones covering it up, and they did it so they
Speaker 3: could bomb Saddam Husseins their fability without Lenin is the master.
Speaker 1: Don't take this prejudice, don't take this the wrong way.
Speaker 1: All I can do is pray for you, and I will,
Speaker 1: I will, and thank you for calling the show.
Speaker 2: Listen.
Speaker 1: We all know that there one is too many, but
Speaker 1: there are way too many Jew haters out there, and
Speaker 1: and there are way too many people who would celebrate
Speaker 1: seeing another Holocaust. I'm not saying Steve is one of
Speaker 1: those I don't know. I'm not saying he is, but
Speaker 1: but there are way too many of those people. And
Speaker 1: the fact that this nation, this small nation, geographically small
Speaker 1: nation population wise, has been able to survive and thrive
Speaker 1: and achieve the accomplishments they have military, domestic, economic, technological,
Speaker 1: and has been able to now take on this evil
Speaker 1: regime with great success.
Speaker 2: It's it's biblical right.
Speaker 1: And I say that is a completely devoted, committed Catholic Christian.
Speaker 1: But there's one of the slanders that Steve offered that
Speaker 1: is just a great way to put a bow on this.
Speaker 1: And then everybody else, thank you for your patients.
Speaker 2: I'll get you.
Speaker 1: At the start of the segment when Steve talked about
Speaker 1: this unholy alliance between the US and Israel, and he
Speaker 1: has it exactly backwards. It's a very holy alliance because
Speaker 1: part of the tremendous support of the US, and unfortunately
Speaker 1: the Modern Democratic Party's breaking with this and paying the
Speaker 1: price for it, but part of the tremendous support and
Speaker 1: well deserved of our ally Israel by the US has
Speaker 1: come from the fact that the US is a majority
Speaker 1: Christian country, and Christians, I think have a proper reverence
Speaker 1: for the Holy Land and for Jews is our big
Speaker 1: brothers and sisters in the faith. And obviously, I and
Speaker 1: all Christians believe by definition that She's is Christ is divine,
Speaker 1: and that is that is the simple truth, and that
Speaker 1: is why we are Christians. But we understand that the
Speaker 1: holiness of the Holy Land and the Jews is God's
Speaker 1: chosen people, and the Jews is are big brothers and
Speaker 1: sisters in the faith. And this commitment that they not
Speaker 1: be annihilated and that we do everything we can to
Speaker 1: help protect them runs deep in this country, and that
Speaker 1: is a very good thing.
Speaker 2: You're on the Dankaplas Show.
Speaker 4: And now back to the Dan Taplass Show podcasts.
Speaker 2: I love the song, but why here?
Speaker 1: Come on?
Speaker 4: Dan? You read the Dan post by Trump? Nobody does
Speaker 4: it better than the US.
Speaker 2: Oh can't you read it?
Speaker 1: I read a bunch of posts forgive me, but my
Speaker 1: focus has been on the post that says unconditional surrender
Speaker 1: exclamation point ks you want the president has put the
Speaker 1: flag in the ground. That is what's going to happen.
Speaker 1: And now the question is how and how quickly?
Speaker 5: Well, and you're asking me, do you want?
Speaker 3: Never surrendered?
Speaker 5: By Corey Hart or Surrender by Cheap Trick.
Speaker 1: But you got to post a Springsteen just because he's
Speaker 1: a lefty falling down Kelly talk to it.
Speaker 6: I put him up to playing Carly sinon she He
Speaker 6: really did say, nobody does it better. And I'm I
Speaker 6: was here, he he because he cues his stupid music
Speaker 6: and I'm sitting here trying to sing and get into
Speaker 6: a rhythm and he just keeps, you know, cutting and
Speaker 6: trying to cue it.
Speaker 1: I gotta trust you, nobody has ever done music better
Speaker 1: on radio than Ryan does on talk shows. But I
Speaker 1: do have to tell you, guys as I go back
Speaker 1: to our jam lines and text, because we are living
Speaker 1: through this very historic moment together. You know me, I'm
Speaker 1: an early morning guy, right, and so I'm kind of
Speaker 1: like out on my feet today because I'm used to
Speaker 1: in these trial modes, getting very very little sleep each
Speaker 1: night and doing fine with it. So last night I
Speaker 1: made the mistake of getting a full night's sleep. Oh
Speaker 1: and so now what Today's a tough day. Yeah, But
Speaker 1: so I get up. I get up about one thirty
Speaker 1: in the morning, maybe two, and then I wake up
Speaker 1: to this Google alert.
Speaker 2: Oh, says Google alert.
Speaker 1: Dame capitalists, and I look at it and it says
Speaker 1: John Caldera fills in and declares it no capitalist thing.
Speaker 2: That had to be a great show. He did do that,
Speaker 2: it had to be.
Speaker 5: There was a little bit of animosity teached me to
Speaker 5: miss it. Well, there's that he was having fun with it,
Speaker 5: of course.
Speaker 1: But yeah, no, no, I love Johnny, No, even if
Speaker 1: he doesn't love me, I did john Just.
Speaker 4: One point of order.
Speaker 2: Yes.
Speaker 5: In the illegal parlance of our time, the Bruce Springsteen
Speaker 5: song is called no Surrender.
Speaker 2: Oh really, no, no retreat, no surrender.
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, alrighty, let's go to the phone lines. Hey,
Speaker 1: if you just joined us that, I think the big
Speaker 1: headline of the day can be summed up this way.
Speaker 1: President Trump has made it clear the Iranian regime is
Speaker 1: going to fall. He's put the flag in the ground,
Speaker 1: and you don't complete surrender. That that is what he's
Speaker 1: demanding at this point. And he knows at this point
Speaker 1: that his own credibility effectiveness is at stake worldwide. So
Speaker 1: I don't think he posts that unconditional surrender verbatim unless
Speaker 1: he is certain it's going to happen. So that's kind
Speaker 1: of the backdrop for everything we talk about today. Lines
Speaker 1: of jam Let's start in Oervada. We'll talk to Dean.
Speaker 1: You're on the Dan Kapla show.
Speaker 3: Welcome, Hey Dan, Thank you.
Speaker 2: Sure.
Speaker 7: I really don't think that Iran will surrender. I think
Speaker 7: they would rather die than you know, NYE on the sword,
Speaker 7: than say, USA wins. So I think this is going
Speaker 7: to go down to the bunker busters and destroying their
Speaker 7: nuclear stockpile and then you know, they get overthrown by
Speaker 7: the UH because eventually they're gonna he'll either die in
Speaker 7: the bombing, the leader or somebody will take him out.
Speaker 3: But I think they got to have a new regime.
Speaker 8: And that's my opinion.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I appreciate the call, my friend.
Speaker 1: I appreciate the call, and obviously that that is the
Speaker 1: most certain and effective way to defanin Iran's nuclear technology
Speaker 1: is to have regime change, and clearly that's part of
Speaker 1: the overall strategy, right. I mean, the President and Prime
Speaker 1: Minister net Yaou have been open about that. And when
Speaker 1: the President posts today unconditional surrender exclamation mark, I think
Speaker 1: he is sending a message to the good people of
Speaker 1: Iran that this is the time, and obviously people of
Speaker 1: Iran are more likely to take that big leap and
Speaker 1: attempt to overthrow the regime starting with you know, the
Speaker 1: revolutionary guard in the streets if they know that they
Speaker 1: have the support of the American president. I remember doing
Speaker 1: a show for Montana is up there in a case,
Speaker 1: and you had people in the streets and large numbers
Speaker 1: in Iran saying, Obama, help us, Obama help us. It
Speaker 1: was Arab Spring and Obama chose the Iyatolas. Trump is
Speaker 1: not too the Iatolas, and he's made that clear to
Speaker 1: the people. Let's go back down to beautiful Colorado Springs.
Speaker 2: Talk to Warren. You're on the Dan Kapla show.
Speaker 8: Welcome, Hey Dan, good to talk to you, just to
Speaker 8: talk to you. Yeah, and I agree with you one
Speaker 8: hundred percent about Biden and the border and also by Iran.
Speaker 8: What you're talking about Iran, But I don't just call
Speaker 8: it evil. It has a lot to do with Islam.
Speaker 8: And I'll explain what I'm talking about. Are you familiar
Speaker 8: with the duality of Islam?
Speaker 1: Well, hey, Warten, let me just interupterence segment because I
Speaker 1: got about thirty five forty seconds left in this segment.
Speaker 1: I don't think this has anything to do with Islam
Speaker 1: the way that faith is practiced by most people. I
Speaker 1: think you have these these Ayatolas who have these radical
Speaker 1: Islamist views where where they believe or claim to believe.
Speaker 2: That they have to kill all Jews.
Speaker 8: Hey, I can hang on for forty seconds, Jim and
Speaker 8: mixed section because the duelism explains what you're just trying
Speaker 8: to figure out.
Speaker 1: And warn You're welcome, hang on and welcome to make
Speaker 1: a point. Here's my challenge today. Okay, we're covering a
Speaker 1: fast moving war and so I'm trying to stay focused
Speaker 1: on the military aspects.
Speaker 8: I just hope that works out for the best. Yeah,
Speaker 8: they get rid of that regime. I hope it doesn't
Speaker 8: get blowing out deal where they shut down the oil
Speaker 8: tankers and the presure oil goes up and after that.
Speaker 8: Crazy to do that, but they're able to take themselves
Speaker 8: out anyway because that's what they believe. They believe it
Speaker 8: them the rule's proven that over and over again. To
Speaker 8: die and see the loss of the faith, that's what.
Speaker 9: They're going to do.
Speaker 2: Well, appreciate the call.
Speaker 1: It'll be interesting to see because so many of these
Speaker 1: people right who get others to go out and martyr
Speaker 1: themselves don't seem anxious to murder themselves personally. By the way,
Speaker 1: Israel says it killed a run senior most military official,
Speaker 1: and this senior most military official, run senior most military
Speaker 1: official now killed by Israel has been in the job
Speaker 1: for how many days, Ryan after Israel killed his predecessor? Day? Yes, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: actually five, So this one lasted five days. But this
Speaker 1: is the top military commander in Iran has now been
Speaker 1: killed five days after he assumed that position from his predecessor,
Speaker 1: who was also killed by Israel.
Speaker 5: Question real quick, why do you think they've left the
Speaker 5: Ayatola alive?
Speaker 3: Well?
Speaker 1: I believe Trump when he said that that he has
Speaker 1: come out strongly against killing the Iotola, and I think
Speaker 1: I think that's part of an overall plan by Trump
Speaker 1: that I think is a very very wise plan. I
Speaker 1: think Trump assumes at this point the regime is going
Speaker 1: to fall, and he's just looking ahead to what comes
Speaker 1: next and what may help facilitate that being the best
Speaker 1: possible version and of what comes next year.
Speaker 2: On The Dan Kaplis.
Speaker 4: Show, you're listening to The Dan Kaplis Show podcast.
Speaker 1: Obviously we're living through history together here. I think it
Speaker 1: will end up being one of the top five most
Speaker 1: important events of our lifetimes in terms of world impact,
Speaker 1: and I think the world impact is going to be
Speaker 1: phenomenally great. But I understand the reality there's likely to
Speaker 1: be much more pain before this evil regime falls, because
Speaker 1: evil's evil by nature, right, and historically it does not
Speaker 1: expire without inflicting an awful lot of pain on an
Speaker 1: awful lot of innocent people. So some tough times ahead,
Speaker 1: but I think it's going to be a much better
Speaker 1: world as soon as this regime's gone. The President today,
Speaker 1: if you're just getting off work, is committed to the
Speaker 1: unconditional surrender of the Iranian regime, and so his very
Speaker 1: firm position I think makes it much more likely that
Speaker 1: that is actually going to happen. I want to get
Speaker 1: to some sound and text as well. Here's that Tucker
Speaker 1: Carlson with an opposing point of view. I support the
Speaker 1: approach the President's taken.
Speaker 2: He does not.
Speaker 10: I am saying this because I'm really afraid that my
Speaker 10: country's going to be further weakened by this. I think
Speaker 10: we're going to see the end of American empire. Obviously,
Speaker 10: other nations would like to see that, and this is
Speaker 10: a perfect way to scuttle the USS America on the
Speaker 10: shoals of Iran. But it's also going to end I believe,
Speaker 10: Trump's presidency and effectively end it.
Speaker 2: And so that's why I'm saying, what do you mean
Speaker 2: by that's that's coming for you? That's you get.
Speaker 10: Look, I knew Bush. I knew George W. Bush with
Speaker 10: you know, family connection with Smush. I knew Bush personally.
Speaker 10: I still see Bush sometimes and you know, of course
Speaker 10: he hates me, and he does because I criticized him
Speaker 10: on Iraq and that war is the sum total from
Speaker 10: historical perspective of his administration.
Speaker 1: And listen, on something this important, I do think it's
Speaker 1: even more important that we hear opposing voices. And you
Speaker 1: may oppose Trump's position on this, but that we hear
Speaker 1: opposing voices and hear them out because this is so
Speaker 1: large and the stakes are so large, and war by
Speaker 1: nature is such a large, you know, moral decision to make.
Speaker 1: And so I want to hear more from Tucker Carlson,
Speaker 1: even though I don't agree with what he said so far,
Speaker 1: and I don't even begin to understand his reasoning there.
Speaker 1: I don't think there'd be any reason for any thinking
Speaker 1: person to expect that this, this this war against the
Speaker 1: Iranian regime is going to turn into large scale boots
Speaker 1: on the ground, Israeli boots or American boots or any
Speaker 1: other boots. I don't support any American boots on the
Speaker 1: ground in Iran. I don't think that's necessary. I think
Speaker 1: the question is whether the participation of American pilots is necessary.
Speaker 2: I hope it's not.
Speaker 1: I hope that American munitions equipment, et cetera will be enough.
Speaker 1: But yeah, I don't know why Tucker would think there'd
Speaker 1: be a comparison here to the war in I Rock,
Speaker 1: where it was obviously the large scale ground effort that
Speaker 1: ended up causing so much misery and death and trouble.
Speaker 1: And by the way, as we get back to phone
Speaker 1: lines and calls, I will be just as one guy.
Speaker 1: I will be forever grateful to all the men and
Speaker 1: women who who fought and died, all the men and
Speaker 1: women who sacrificed to all their families that our family
Speaker 1: gets to live now in a world without Saddam Hussein
Speaker 1: and his henchmen.
Speaker 3: Uh.
Speaker 1: And I'll forever be grateful for that. Whether that was
Speaker 1: worth it, I think can only be decided by the
Speaker 1: people who made the sacrifice. I think people like me
Speaker 1: can just be grateful, and I think we will all
Speaker 1: be grateful to Israel, and we'll all be grateful to
Speaker 1: anybody else who now contributes to taking out this evil
Speaker 1: Iranian regime. ALRIGHTI let's get back to Let's get back
Speaker 1: to the sound in the text, really a great text
Speaker 1: to kick this off.
Speaker 2: And so you've said.
Speaker 1: Over and over that Trump is the most anti war
Speaker 1: president ever, yet here we are dragging US soldiers into it. Respectfully, Texture,
Speaker 1: I think you have it backwards.
Speaker 2: He is.
Speaker 1: I think he's the most anti war president we've had
Speaker 1: in my short lifetime, and he's been extraordinarily effective at it.
Speaker 1: And he's being effective right now because that the best
Speaker 1: way to have peace is to prove that you are ready,
Speaker 1: willing and able to fight and win a war. That's
Speaker 1: the best way to get peace. I wish evil didn't
Speaker 1: exist in the world. I wish it didn't gain power
Speaker 1: in the world. I wish you didn't have evil people
Speaker 1: like Putin and g and Kim Jong un and the
Speaker 1: Ayatolas who were running entire nation states.
Speaker 2: I wish that didn't exist. But as long as it exists.
Speaker 1: The only way to be anti war is to prove
Speaker 1: you're ready to win it, and that's what Trump's doing.
Speaker 1: And the beauty of this right now is that we
Speaker 1: are about to see this victory in Iran. And there
Speaker 1: hasn't been a single US troop in harm's way, meaning
Speaker 1: over country at this point. Obviously, everybody at our bases
Speaker 1: in the regions in danger. But yeah, and now it
Speaker 1: may come to pass. I wouldn't be shocked. I don't
Speaker 1: think you would be if all of a sudden President
Speaker 1: Trump added some air power, air support, particularly since if
Speaker 1: the experts on TV are right, and I can't know
Speaker 1: if they are or not. I don't have classified access.
Speaker 1: But Natan's Florida, it may very well take, particularly at Florida,
Speaker 1: which is about one hundred miles from Tehran, you know,
Speaker 1: about the same distance as vailed to Denver. It may
Speaker 1: very well take you know, US bombers, bunker busters, etc.
Speaker 1: To get into that deep, deep mountain, you know, refinement
Speaker 1: facility at FORDA. Maybe it does, and maybe that's what
Speaker 1: it comes to. Three h three someone three eight two
Speaker 1: five five the number text d A N five seven
Speaker 1: seven three nine. Would you support that or would you
Speaker 1: oppose that. How about you, Ryan, if it came to that,
Speaker 1: would you support US air support?
Speaker 4: Absolutely?
Speaker 1: Yes.
Speaker 5: I talked about this earlier on my program, which precedes yours.
Speaker 5: Is called the dan Caplis pregame Show, is what I
Speaker 5: like to refer to it as.
Speaker 2: But come, I'm never invited. Well, you're always invited your invitation, right, Yes, you've.
Speaker 5: Got an open invitation. You do, like everybody to your wedding, right,
Speaker 5: Minimal risk for American casualties. Air support only a very
Speaker 5: thoroughly and clearly defined mission and plan, execute it, get out,
Speaker 5: And I'm okay with that.
Speaker 1: Yes, Well, you can be sure of one thing, right
Speaker 1: that the warriors in the United States military are probably
Speaker 1: chomping at the bit to be part of taking down
Speaker 1: this evil regime.
Speaker 4: Well, it was interesting.
Speaker 5: A listener brought up have you seen Top Gun Maverick
Speaker 5: the sequel?
Speaker 9: Yet?
Speaker 2: How many times?
Speaker 1: Oh?
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay?
Speaker 5: Good? Well, the whole plot of that don't identify the
Speaker 5: nemesis that we're fighting against. But the mission very difficult,
Speaker 5: and I think there's some similarities there about taking this out.
Speaker 5: It's got to be a precise shot. I think we
Speaker 5: have both the intel and the capability, and again, if
Speaker 5: this is to do it once and for all, like
Speaker 5: I said, quick strike, you're in, You're out, it's over.
Speaker 5: I support that, but not to get dragged down like
Speaker 5: some people are insinuating. Kelly and I are getting very
Speaker 5: frustrated back here, very text like all American boots on
Speaker 5: the ground, We're gonna get this slog, this quagmire, and
Speaker 5: in Iran it's to your earlier point, this is Apple's
Speaker 5: and Oranges comparison to Iraq, and it should be and
Speaker 5: we shouldn't put boots.
Speaker 4: On the ground in iron.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I would love and I'll look, and if
Speaker 1: you'd look, I would love to find some informed commentator
Speaker 1: out there who believes there's a scenario where this would
Speaker 1: lead to something similar to the Iraq war. I just
Speaker 1: don't see any scenario here where that happens. And that's
Speaker 1: why I don't understand Tucker Carlson's comparison and line of
Speaker 1: attack here. But those who disagree would love to hear
Speaker 1: from you. Dan Trump wants aron Ziyahtola live, so he
Speaker 1: has to publicly sign the declaration of complete thurrender as
Speaker 1: the word watches. Yeah, that ain't happen, and that is
Speaker 1: not happening, and and no, I think right now President
Speaker 1: Trump is very wisely looking around three or four corners
Speaker 1: toward what happens the morning after. And we'll devote a
Speaker 1: lot of the show to this tomorrow, what happens in
Speaker 1: Iran after this.
Speaker 2: Evil regime falls.
Speaker 1: And so I think that that President coming out today
Speaker 1: and say an unconditional surrender exclamation point is designed in
Speaker 1: part to try to encourage the people inside Iron to
Speaker 1: overthrow the regime right now, while the regime is so vulnerable.
Speaker 1: I think Trump publicly saying that he has opposed taking
Speaker 1: out the Ayatola, I think he has an eye on
Speaker 1: what comes next, because within Iran there is some support
Speaker 1: obviously for this evil regime. And I think think President
Speaker 1: Trump and his team are probably wanting and as they should,
Speaker 1: the most cohesive Iran as a nation stake possible after
Speaker 1: this regime falls. Obviously wants a free Iran and hopefully
Speaker 1: one that inches or leaps and bounds closer to democracy.
Speaker 2: But you you.
Speaker 1: Don't want to run torn by internal strife after this
Speaker 1: regime falls, as and if the Ayatola is targeted and
Speaker 1: taken out, it might be harder to put a run
Speaker 1: completely back together. Obviously you'd have many their celebrated. But
Speaker 1: I think Trump is wisely looking toward a stable around
Speaker 1: the day after. Is the day after going to come Friday?
Speaker 1: Is it going to come two months from Friday? None
Speaker 1: of us can know, but I think we can be
Speaker 1: confident it's coming. Hey, get back to the phone lines
Speaker 1: and text. You're on the Dan Kapla Show.
Speaker 4: And now back to the Dan Taplas Show podcast.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the president demanding unconditional surrenders.
Speaker 2: So at this.
Speaker 1: Point you have to expect there will be regime change
Speaker 1: because look at President Trump and is kind of historic
Speaker 1: effectiveness and success has been based at the core on
Speaker 1: peace through strength, on you know, there's this proper perception
Speaker 1: of the president is very strong and if you mess
Speaker 1: with him, you're going to pay a price. And that has,
Speaker 1: you know, led to him be in a very effective
Speaker 1: peacemaker worldwide. And at this point he knows he's brilliant.
Speaker 1: He can't come out and declare publicly that the regime
Speaker 1: must fall and then have anything short of that happen, right,
Speaker 1: or he loses his effectiveness, particularly against a backdrop where
Speaker 1: for the first time he's been publicly defied. You know,
Speaker 1: both Putin and Zelenski defying him to varying degrees, and
Speaker 1: so there's no doubt in my mind that's front and
Speaker 1: center in his mind as he takes this position with
Speaker 1: regard to Irun And what that tells me, and right,
Speaker 1: I don't have access to the information, the classified information,
Speaker 1: What that tells me is the president is certain that
Speaker 1: this Iranian regime is going to fall, and that he
Speaker 1: wants the fall of that regime to now boost his
Speaker 1: effectiveness as a world peacemaker, you know, and he wants
Speaker 1: to be part of that success. And he's now committed
Speaker 1: to doing whatever it takes. I think he's committed to
Speaker 1: doing whatever it takes to make sure that regime falls.
Speaker 1: So I think he has an eye on the war
Speaker 1: in Ukraine as he does this. I think he has
Speaker 1: an eye on China and North Korea and every other
Speaker 1: hot spot in the world as he does this. It's
Speaker 1: one of the reasons I'm so optimistic that this regime
Speaker 1: will now fall. Joe and Arvada, you're on the damn
Speaker 1: CAPLIS show.
Speaker 2: Welcome.
Speaker 8: Hey.
Speaker 9: First, I want to say, God, let's ryan to plan.
Speaker 9: That's becoing message to my youth.
Speaker 2: Okay, thank You're welcome.
Speaker 1: Yeah, nobody, nobody better at that than right Ryan, What
Speaker 1: is this single single best bump you've ever played?
Speaker 4: Oh?
Speaker 5: I don't know, man, and can't sit on his own jury,
Speaker 5: right the ones that made me?
Speaker 9: Did you ever spend summers at pent Water?
Speaker 4: I sure did.
Speaker 9: That's a beautiful are Oh so I had, we we
Speaker 9: all had modified jeeps, this and that, and long story short,
Speaker 9: The last trip I was there was the last run
Speaker 9: of my teep, but Buddy might bought it and it
Speaker 9: ended up upside down. But that's that's past. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 9: full rocage at any rate. I wanted to point out
Speaker 9: and Kelly, I spoke to Kelly. I guess Kelly's dad
Speaker 9: was involved with the development of the B two bomber.
Speaker 2: Wow, that's true.
Speaker 9: Yeah, that's yeah.
Speaker 2: Wow.
Speaker 9: So what I wanted to point out is because yeah,
Speaker 9: these uh nuclear things, they need to be taken out,
Speaker 9: and I'm pretty sure that only the US can do.
Speaker 9: And there are two aircraft that can deliver those bunker
Speaker 9: busters thousand the air winger in the minicls, and that's
Speaker 9: the B two and the thirty five. And as I
Speaker 9: understand it now, we have air superiority meaning all their
Speaker 9: triple A, any aircraft, artillery are wiped out. So yeah,
Speaker 9: we need to.
Speaker 3: Go over there, identify those tibets.
Speaker 9: And take them out, take them out, you know, because
Speaker 9: it's not just I mean, my goodness, if I ran
Speaker 9: were to get a nuclear weapons oh yeah, yeah, well
Speaker 9: they sell it.
Speaker 1: Joe appreciate the call. No, but but this is exhibit A, right, yeah,
Speaker 1: and so many others. This is why Iron cannot have anue.
Speaker 1: There's no doubt they would take out Israel. But the
Speaker 1: whole world's going to be better off. So let's say prayer,
Speaker 1: Let's say we we know it's there's going to be
Speaker 1: a lot more pain evil Just that's how evil dies, right,
Speaker 1: it goes down fighting and and inflicting as much pain
Speaker 1: on innocent people as it can. And that's been the
Speaker 1: history of this evil regime. And so yeah, let's hope
Speaker 1: it happens sooner than later. And I think it's gonna
Speaker 1: happen within a window here, right, what would you guess, Ryan,
Speaker 1: I mean, none of us can know. But but with
Speaker 1: the President's declaration today, and you cannot allow this regime
Speaker 1: to survive at this point, because if the regime survives this,
Speaker 1: they come back stronger than ever.
Speaker 2: That's a great point.
Speaker 1: And then you don't as that regime, then it's not
Speaker 1: a matter of Okay, they've got to rebuild the tons
Speaker 1: and then they've got to enrich and all this, and
Speaker 1: that they're gonna be importing nukes at that point. If
Speaker 1: that regime can survive this, you're gonna have China feeding them.
Speaker 1: You're gonna have Russia feeding them. It's no, it can't happen,
Speaker 1: and it won't happen.
Speaker 5: But that's why that word is so key and that
Speaker 5: we've been keying in on with the music. Coming back
Speaker 5: is unconditional surrender. Surrender meaning you're done, buddy, Yeah, your
Speaker 5: chance negotiate. I'm done with negotiating, and we're gonna it's
Speaker 5: gonna end, and it's either gonna end on our terms or.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, well I think what he said is it's
Speaker 1: going to end on our term, right, And it's just
Speaker 1: a matter of how how hard it's going to be
Speaker 1: between now and then, Dan and Ryan. Instead of boots
Speaker 1: on the ground, about boots in the air F thirty
Speaker 1: five eight pilots also wear boots.
Speaker 2: That from Andy and a very good point and a
Speaker 2: good point to show us.
Speaker 5: The exile offered the Ayatola in Qatar. That's a condition
Speaker 5: of surrender, and he leaves and it's over. How about that.
Speaker 1: The only thing that would surprise me there is if
Speaker 1: Qatar took him.
Speaker 4: I don't know they've been you know, they don't like
Speaker 4: what we're doing here.
Speaker 1: Considering here, you would not want that nation what it's
Speaker 1: trying to do right now. And I'm an expert on
Speaker 1: Qatar because I spent my anniversary in their airport one year,
Speaker 1: right when our flight got to VERTI and I know
Speaker 1: everything about that country. But you can be sure that
Speaker 1: that's a brand they don't want, right, I mean, that
Speaker 1: is a brand they don't want. Save harbor to leaders
Speaker 1: of Hamas right, which is obviously beyond have scene. But
Speaker 1: I do think they're trying to change that image and profile. Hey,
Speaker 1: one of the things that's a.
Speaker 2: Good lead to tomorrow.
Speaker 1: Of course we'll have you up to the minute, but
Speaker 1: one of the things we're going to talk about tomorrow
Speaker 1: is what comes next, what comes next and around after
Speaker 1: this regime falls, and what's that going to mean for
Speaker 1: the world as we continue to follow obviously the ongoing war. Brian,
Speaker 1: you're the best Kelly, thank you as always. Please join
Speaker 1: us tomorrow on the Dan Kapla Show
