DEADLY Israeli Strikes On Iran Stun World
Israel launched airstrikes in Iran, targeting nuclear development and military sites.
- 26 minutes
Netanyahu's going to go. Ha ha ha ha!
Checkmate, America.
Now you're my bitch again.
Now you fight my wars, and they'll
probably even withdraw and say,
America, you do our dirty work for us.
Spend a couple of trillion
like you did in Iraq.
And and tens of thousands of Americans
get killed or wounded.
[00:00:17]
Who cares?
Israel needs you to do something for us.
Hurry up and do it.
Okay.
And American media will be like,
oh, they are the victims.
They are the victims.
They're doing self-defense.
Now we have to help them
with their defense.
What do you mean, defense?
What is defense?
No, it's nothing but offense.
With allies like this,
you don't need enemies.
[00:00:33]
Overnight, Israel carried out a major
attack inside Iran aimed at crippling
its nuclear program and preventing
Iran from building a nuclear bomb.
So alone.
Multiple waves of strikes throughout
the night across multiple cities,
hitting nuclear enrichment facilities
and ballistic missile centers.
[00:00:51]
Multiple residential buildings
engulfed in flames in Iran's capital.
When enemies build weapons
of mass death, stop them.
This operation will continue for as many
days as it takes to remove this threat.
I'm assuming that does not count
for America and Israel,
[00:01:06]
which also have weapons of mass death,
but just for Iran in any event.
We are all now, whether we like it or not.
And I think most people watching this
probably won't a whole lot closer
to all out war in the Middle East,
thanks to Israel launching its
massive preemptive attack on Iran,
[00:01:22]
what we would call if it were any
other country, the initiation of a war.
If it's the United States and Israel,
you can just do this sort of thing.
And it's it's just a strategy.
It's just cool.
Everybody quiet down about it.
But, it is big.
Objectively, Iran has not been hit
like this since the 1980s.
[00:01:38]
There have been more limited strikes
inside of Iranian territory,
earlier this year from Israel.
But this really does stand out.
And bear in mind,
it happened right before
what was supposed to be hopefully fruitful
conversations between the United
States and around this weekend
to try to establish some sort of Nuclear
[00:01:57]
deal between our two countries,
that deal being necessary
because Donald Trump tore up
the previous deal in his first term
because he had not negotiated it,
thus necessitating a new one, and also
raising fears about the possibility that
they could be developing nuclear weapons.
[00:02:13]
Bear in mind we didn't have inspectors
on the ground because Donald Trump
destroyed the previous deal.
But this operation,
which they're calling Rising Lion,
very cool, very low notes, very cool.
It involved heavy airstrikes against some
of Iran's main uranium enrichment sites,
[00:02:32]
strikes inside of the capital,
as well as in other cities.
They were designed to take
out the military leadership, and they
were quite successful in doing that.
In total, over 100 targets were hit,
more than 200 jets were used, as well as
[00:02:48]
drones and precision weapons that had been
smuggled into Iran and had been stored
there by the Israeli spy agency Mossad,
indicating that they apparently
have a quite robust operation
inside of Iranian territory.
[00:03:03]
And it does appear that there's
been some success,
although not, not necessarily exactly what
might have been hoped from this attack.
The command center and centrifuges at one
of Iran's main uranium enrichment sites,
that's Natanz,
are likely to have been destroyed.
[00:03:20]
They didn't hit the most likely repository
of the closest to bomb grade
nuclear fuel that Iran possesses.
But in addition to infrastructure
which was destroyed,
there were also Iranian leaders.
So you have the the literal head
of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards at
[00:03:36]
the top military official inside of Iran
was killed last night.
The chief of staff of Iran's armed forces,
a major aide to the ayatollah,
as well as the person who was in charge
of the nuclear negotiations
with the United States,
will not be participating this weekend
because he was killed and the commander
[00:03:55]
of the Irgc's Air Force as well,
in addition to the the military
and I guess aides that were killed,
there were also dozens of civilians.
Of course,
these are widespread airstrikes.
Hundreds of others were injured.
Multiple nuclear scientists were killed.
You see, two, right there.
[00:04:13]
A spokesperson for the IDF is
claiming that at least nine
nuclear scientists were killed.
And, yeah.
So, look, there's a lot
it's a developing situation.
Iran launched a very limited counterattack
that, in the immediate aftermath of it,
that I don't believe
any of the drones they launched
[00:04:30]
actually made it through to Israel.
They have launched missiles
more recently prior to us going live.
Some of those appear
to have struck inside of Tel Aviv.
I believe there are reports of injuries,
at least as of when we were going live.
I had not seen any confirmation
of any fatalities as a result of that.
[00:04:46]
But it's a developing situation.
Benjamin Netanyahu has said
that this is just the beginning.
They're going to continue.
And as you'll see,
Trump is promising more of that as well.
But, Jake, lot going on.
History being made.
Yeah.
So let me start on media and propaganda.
[00:05:04]
And then I want to get
to the most important part, which is
how Trump got suckered into this war.
Because he's an idiot. And I will explain.
And you will agree, whether you're left
or right, it's super obvious.
So, first off, on the media, and look,
we fall into this sometimes as well.
[00:05:20]
So, they attack their nuclear program.
They also attacked in the middle
of Tehran, their capital city.
So the way the press is framing it
as like I was a preventative, preemptive
attack on their nuclear program.
No, they dropped tons of bombs
in the middle of Tehran, one of the most
[00:05:37]
crowded cities in the world.
Right.
But you haven't heard anything
about their civilian deaths.
You haven't heard anything
about any of that.
Because, of course,
they're Iranians, not Israelis.
Their their lives don't matter.
So, but the minute, you know, Ron started
attacking back like, oh my God, Andre.
[00:05:52]
He's in Tel Aviv. Injuries.
Injuries.
Oh, you have to go in there and help
Israel fight this war instead of Israel.
That's what the propaganda
is driving towards.
Okay, so John's right about the piece
of propaganda of, oh, these weapons
of mass death cannot be allowed to happen.
[00:06:08]
Then you must attack a country,
especially in the Middle East.
If they're going to develop
nuclear weapons under that ideology,
we would have wiped out Israel.
Israel has nukes. They don't.
And by the way,
part of this is not just about, oh,
we're so worried Iran's going to hit us.
I'm going to tell you
why that's a ridiculous in a second.
[00:06:25]
No, it's that they don't want
to lose leverage.
If anyone else has nukes in the Middle
East, then Israel is constrained.
They don't want to be constrained.
They want to attack Syria.
They want to attack Lebanon.
They want to keep Gaza in the West Bank.
They want to attack Iran,
and they don't want to be constrained.
[00:06:42]
If anybody else is anywhere near parity,
they might be slightly constrained
from setting up Greater Israel.
So later they will all pretend
that Israel was the victims.
Not later. Just doing it today.
And they're going to do it
from here until eternity.
[00:06:57]
Mainstream media
is going to lie to you about how.
Oh my God. Poor, poor, poor, poor Israel.
What could they do? Now, this next slide.
They went after they were
about to get a nuclear bomb.
You heard it in the first clip
we played for you guys?
No, they weren't.
They were, at best, a couple of weeks
away, which sounds really close
[00:07:17]
to enriching uranium for the first time
at a level where it could be weaponized.
But if you wanted to actually put it
on a bomb, that actually would have taken
at least another year.
How often have you heard that on TV?
That they were nowhere near
being able to weaponize a bomb?
[00:07:34]
That they're not even close to it?
Not within a year.
On TV, it looks like, oh.
My God, Iran was about to get a nuke
and kill us all.
Oh thank God.
Preventative war
for a preemptive war from Israel.
Oh, what a what a great thing.
Oh, don't worry
about the Iranian civilians.
[00:07:50]
Iran struck back those goddamn terrorists.
Okay, so usual stuff.
Part of it is okay. Israel's the greatest.
And we have to give
all of your money to Israel.
And you have to fight their wars for them.
But most of it is make sure
America gets sucked into this war.
[00:08:07]
One last thing about the framing there.
Physicists were killed
and their lead negotiator was killed,
and their top military leaders
and politicians were killed.
Now, if Iran had struck first
and had killed Israeli civilian scientists
[00:08:25]
and the top Israeli negotiator for peace
and an Israeli politician
and their top three military commanders,
what would we call it?
- Everyone in the press would say.
- Murdered.
Terrorists.
Oh, Israeli civilians
were murdered by the terrorists.
[00:08:44]
Israel does it. Oh, they were just killed.
We're just going after they
were about to get the bomb.
- What could poor Israel do?
- So Israel's a massive aggressor.
They do not let
the American media lie to you
and pretend starting tomorrow, because.
[00:08:59]
Oh, now Iran counterattacked.
So they'll show you tons
of pictures on air about.
- Oh, Israel, Tel Aviv.
- Oh. So, look.
Am I worried about civilians
in Israel or Iran?
Yes.
I don't want any civilians
dying in Israel.
But don't tell me that you're the victims.
Don't tell me that you're doing
self-defense and drag America into it.
[00:09:15]
And right now,
we're massively dragged into it.
So how?
Number one,
we're now doing defense for Israel.
Defense.
So that means we pay a ton of money
to bring our aircraft carriers
to bring our ships.
And now we're knocking down
the Iranian missiles.
So we're we're already on day one
right in the middle of the war.
[00:09:32]
And we find out today. Oh, oops.
It turns out that, that we gave
them intelligence on the bombing.
So wait a minute.
So we're involved on the offense
and the defense were right
in the middle of this war.
On day one.
It was so easy to get America
in the middle of this war with Iran,
[00:09:50]
and they and Israel can't wait for an
American service member to be killed.
They're going to set off fireworks,
not in the Israeli civilians and citizens
and the scumbags who run,
the terrorists who run their government.
Because the minute an American is killed.
And by the way,
get a load of this Israel super protected
[00:10:08]
because we gave them Iron Dome.
So and we've got our aircraft carriers,
we're shooting down everything.
But American troops in the Middle East
don't have Iron Dome.
They're sitting ducks.
So the minute Iran hits a soft target,
which is us,
[00:10:23]
then Netanyahu is going to go, ha ha!
Checkmate, America!
Now you're my bitch again.
Now you fight my wars and they'll probably
even withdraw and say, America,
you do our dirty work for us, spend
a couple of trillion like you did in Iraq.
And and tens of thousands of Americans
get killed or wounded, who cares?
[00:10:43]
Israel needs you to do something for us.
Hurry up and do it, okay?
And American media will be like,
oh, they are the victims.
They are the victims.
They're doing self-defense.
Now we have to help them
with their defense.
What do you mean, defense?
What is defense?
No, it's nothing but offense. Why?
So now get the hell out of there.
And I got to get to Mars.
[00:10:59]
So I'll tell you in a minute
how they tricked Trump into this.
- He's such a child, Mars.
- Well, you're right on all fronts.
And, Netanyahu's been wanting
to do this for years and years.
If you recall, before the the actual first
nuclear deal, he was at the UN with that
[00:11:16]
Wiley coyote bomb and saying Iran is just
a couple weeks away, we have to bomb Iran.
We have to bomb Iran.
And to your point, it seems like he played
Donald Trump like an orange haired fiddle
to get him to do this,
because he supposedly had convinced Trump
[00:11:33]
that if he does this now, it will help
bring Iran to the negotiating table,
which, by the way, Donald Trump, you saw.
He said, oh, I told them,
make a deal in 60 days.
This is day 61.
They should have made a deal.
You better make a deal now.
You already had a deal.
And this new deal isn't that different
from the previous deal.
[00:11:51]
And if we stuck with the previous deal,
perhaps we'd have more knowledge
about what's going on inside Iran
and inside their program.
Now, as an Iranian American
in the diaspora, I could tell you that a
lot of Iranians don't like the government.
The government is an oppressive
government, and it's maybe not even
[00:12:06]
a trustworthy government, but nobody wants
to go to war and kill innocent people.
So when I see the the images
and I reached out to some relatives
and just asking if they're okay,
one one friend of mine said that,
he had been at the airport and there
was a lot of chaos, but he was fine.
[00:12:24]
But we don't know the numbers.
To your point.
We don't know the numbers.
And as an Iranian-American,
again, it has been exhausting.
It's exhausting to be Iranian in
this world because the people of Iran
are really good people
and the government of Iran is oppressive.
[00:12:40]
But then you get caught up in the middle
of this where Bibi is playing Trump,
and Trump is going along, and we're about
to start World War three in that region.
And so, you know, what can we do?
I don't know, I don't know.
And I think a big part of this was also,
Bibi had been seeing that,
[00:12:57]
the continuing killing of Gazans
was definitely in the world was getting,
more, more people were knowing
about it and
and it was and it was another distraction
to go, let me go after these guys.
And to your point,
they've got the backing of America.
[00:13:13]
And I don't know, the thing that I always
am perplexed by is these world leaders,
when they do these types of things,
they it seems like they
never think about what's the day after.
Because if you were to go and bomb Iran
and bomb Iran and bomb Iran,
[00:13:29]
what's the day after?
What's going to happen?
Are you going to find a way
to cause a regime change and create
a democratic Iran by bombing them.
Is that what your strategy is?
What is your strategy?
So I don't see any strategy there
except chaos.
And, it's very worrisome
for all the civilians that are going
[00:13:48]
to be harmed in, in such a war.
By the way, really fast.
So apparently the UN ambassador
from Iran says 78 were killed,
320 were wounded in Iran.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So. But they're civilians don't count.
They're Muslim.
[00:14:04]
So it's okay.
And so, but the poor Israelis, so I got
to build on two things that Ma said.
So number one, look, a lot of governments
are terrible in this world, right?
[00:14:20]
Ranging from bad to despotic. Right.
So are any of us in favor
of the Iranian regime?
No, no, I it's not a democracy.
It's supreme leader, Ayatollah
fundamentalist, no interest in it.
They oppress their own people, etc..
Cheered on the protests that tried to
overthrow it just a couple of years ago.
[00:14:36]
Oh, absolutely. We love that.
If it's organic
coming from the Iranian people.
Right.
So does that mean
we should go to war with them?
I mean, this is the same thing
that they used in Iraq.
Oh, Saddam Hussein's a bad guy, but Saddam
Hussein was not a threat to America.
Where do we get the intelligence
that they had?
[00:14:52]
Weapons of mass destruction.
I hope you're sitting.
We got it from Israel.
And when they say, oh, no, no,
Israel's a really big ally.
And I always ask how all they ever do
is get us into wars.
They get us into trouble, get us killed,
get the whole Muslim world to hate us.
How are they an ally?
They say, oh, they give us intelligence.
[00:15:09]
Yeah.
Fake intelligence
so that we can fight their wars for them.
So they're the.
With allies like this,
you don't need enemies.
Israel will create endless enemies for us.
And they're doing it again here.
So, for example,
I don't like the current leader of Turkey
[00:15:24]
and the and the government right now.
I think that he's, taking away democracy.
I think it's terrible.
And a lot of Turks agree with me.
Do you think the Turks would then be happy
if Turkey was bombed by Israel?
What kind of lunatic
would say something that stupid?
[00:15:42]
No. All the Turks would be so mad
they would all rally around Erdogan,
which would make him much,
much stronger, not weaker.
And the idea that Turks or Persians
or anyone would be like,
oh, you've bombed us now.
[00:15:58]
Now we love you so much.
Thank you for killing us.
This is the stupid neocon philosophy
that is so childish, so obviously wrong.
It's like they're not even trying hard.
And all of the American media.
Oh, yeah. It could be.
[00:16:13]
Could be. And then now we turn to Trump.
And so Mars is right.
Look, I'll do graphics for the next story.
We're going to talk more about how the US
is getting sucked into this.
Watch the show live 6 to 8:00 every day.
So but in his long screed, Trump
when he's pretending in the next story.
[00:16:31]
We'll tell you about why he's pretending
that he was in on it all along.
He says, as long as they think
there's an agreement, I don't want
them going in referring to Israel.
Okay.
Because I think that would blow.
It might help it, actually.
[00:16:46]
But also could blow it.
Now, that was before the strike.
So he's told and this is now verified
in 18 different ways.
Wall Street Journal
saying he told Israel not to bomb them.
Right.
And then but the Israelis got in his ear
and they're like,
oh, no, no, you know what?
[00:17:02]
I know you want peace, Don.
And we all want peace.
But like, you know what, though,
if we bomb them first,
that might bring them to the table better.
Now, any child would know that.
That's preposterous.
You bomb a country, they're not going
to likely to come to the table more.
[00:17:19]
In fact, they can't come to the table.
You murdered their lead negotiator, right?
And you bombed their capital.
You killed all those civilians.
You injured all those people
that John just told you about,
and you killed their top
military officials and their politicians.
Are they more or less likely to come?
[00:17:34]
Of course, they're less likely
to come to the table
right after you bomb their capital.
Imagine if they bomb Iran,
bomb Washington, D.C.
Do you think that would make us
more likely to negotiate with them
and give them what they want?
Nobody thinks that
other than morons like Donald Trump.
[00:17:51]
We're like, okay,
you might be right, Netanyahu.
And then you're going to walk
right into the middle of the war.
And he did. He's an idiot.
I think, look, I racism ruins everything.
That is that is an insane thing to believe
that they would come to negotiate
[00:18:07]
when you bomb them.
Unless you think, well,
I'm I'm a good white person.
We're logical. Reasonable.
We use common sense.
They're crazy.
God only knows what they'll do.
Like, if you don't think that
the vast majority of the people on Earth
are fully conscious, sentient creatures,
then you could.
[00:18:25]
You can think whatever the hell you want
of them, and you can convince your base
to think whatever you want of them.
But on the topic of the negotiations,
we should talk more about that,
because Iran has, perhaps not
surprisingly, canceled this weekend's
negotiations on the nuclear deal.
[00:18:42]
And, you know,
their lead negotiator is dead.
So that was probably obvious.
And a lot of people are wondering,
well, look, the goal of these attacks
were to stop Iran from developing
a nuclear weapon, which we're assured
they were on the precipice of getting.
[00:18:58]
But, you know, if they thought they needed
a nuclear weapon as a deterrent, this kind
of seems like confirmation of that.
Like maybe they needed even more.
And so there's concern
that this could drive them to do anything
they need to to get the weapon.
And we have a little bit on that topic
from the BBC's security correspondent,
[00:19:15]
Frank Gardner.
There's no guarantee
that this is going to be the silver bullet
that Israel is hoping for.
And there is a fear now that not only is
Iran going to continue its retaliation,
and who knows where that's going to end?
Is it just going to be against Israel,
or are they going to extend it
[00:19:32]
to Gulf Arab countries?
Where will this end?
But most importantly,
the hawks within Iran's establishment are
now going to be saying, we told you so.
We were right.
They were going to attack us.
The best deterrent to stop further attacks
like this from Israel is go for the bomb.
[00:19:51]
I mean, just think about over the course
of the last year, the helicopter, the the
drone attacks from Israel, now the bombing
semi-regularly, Israel attacks Iran.
And from their perspective,
it's totally justified.
But from the Iranian point of view,
they desperately need a deterrent.
[00:20:07]
And clearly, whatever conventional weapons
they have, their military, their ballistic
missiles, their drones, all of that,
that clearly does not deter an attack.
So if that doesn't do it, what would?
Weapons of mass destruction
is the answer that a lot of people
will provide to that question.
[00:20:23]
And obviously I don't want them
to have that, but I think it's going
to be a lot easier to make that case
when you're constantly being attacked.
Yeah.
So one more thing about this absurdity
about if we bomb them and we start
murdering their leaders, they'll be more
likely to negotiate under that logic.
[00:20:43]
Wouldn't that say that?
Well, Hamas was right to do October 7th
because that would make Israel
more likely to negotiate.
You see how dumb that logic is?
You would never apply it to Israel, right?
Oh, well, it's a good thing
Israel was attacked because then they're
[00:21:00]
more likely to get to a peace deal.
No person in America
would dare say that sentence,
but they say it about the Iranians.
They say it about the Iraqis.
Oh, yeah, they like being murdered.
So that's more likely to bring them
to the negotiation table, said morons
who repeat obvious Israeli propaganda.
[00:21:18]
And last thing for me on this
is they always frame it
as they're about to get a nuke.
Jack Callahan, one of our members,
wrote in and said, yeah, they're about to
get a nuke for the last 41 years, right?
If you listen to Netanyahu,
who runs a nuke, you better attack Iran.
[00:21:33]
I don't like Iran.
They're a slight challenge to me.
Maybe they could be a problem.
So just murder them, kill them, kill them,
kill them, attack them, attack them.
So what happened? 41 straight years?
You were lying
for the entire goddamn time.
They were lying.
Now, as I told you,
they were at least a year away.
[00:21:48]
But that's not the main point.
The main point isn't.
Oh, should we attack them
and start a giant war in the Middle East
or Iran gets nukes?
No. Or you do a peace treaty where you
take their uranium out of the country
and they can't develop military grade
uranium, and you get a peace deal.
[00:22:08]
That is the correct answer.
That was the answer that Obama gave.
That was the answer
Trump was going towards.
And by the way, we almost had it.
And and Trump there was reports
that Trump had made a deal,
but then Israel came in and said, oh,
you're letting him enrich a tiny amount
of uranium that doesn't get anywhere
[00:22:26]
near like it's such a giant difference.
Guys, I know it sounds like,
well, uranium is uranium.
It's not tons of enriched uranium to a
point where they could use it for energy,
and it cannot be then militarized.
Right.
And the deal would have made sure that it
technically and could not be militarized.
[00:22:43]
Right.
So we we had that deal and Israel came
in and said, I blocked that deal.
Donald Trump,
you're not allowed to make that deal.
They're not allowed
to have any uranium because they knew
that Iran would not accept that.
Why are they the only ones that are
not allowed to have nuclear energy?
So since Iran, Israel that Iran
wouldn't accept it, they're like good.
[00:23:02]
So then then we'll get to attack them
and then we'll make America pay for it.
And don't get any mistakes here.
We will foot almost
the entire bill for this war.
It's and when it goes to Congress,
all the bought, Corrupt politicians will
[00:23:17]
say, oh well, we have to help our beloved
special ally Israel defend itself.
Years old Americans say,
hey, you work your ass off.
You work two jobs. Okay.
Half of one of those jobs is going
to go to Israel, to kill more Iranians,
to kill more Palestinians,
to invade more countries.
[00:23:34]
Don't you dare try to put food on
the table for your family here in America.
No! Give me that money.
Give me that money! It's going to Israel.
It's going to their wars. That's a fact.
You can catch feelings over it
in either direction.
But as a stone cold fact, how many more
hundreds of billions of dollars
[00:23:50]
is Israel going to take from us to start
more aggressive wars in the Middle East?
All right, Maz, last word on this.
You know, it's,
they literally blew up the nuclear deal.
They literally blew it up.
They killed the negotiator.
They killed other people
that were involved.
[00:24:05]
And going back to Netanyahu,
Netanyahu was trying to convince Trump
to not do the nuclear deal.
So you got to imagine Netanyahu
or somebody within his inner circle
was saying, hey, you know what?
Since we can play Trump like a pawn,
let's convince him that doing this bombing
[00:24:21]
is going to help that negotiation.
Because famously, Trump keeps saying
that he's a peaceful.
He doesn't want war,
he doesn't want war, he doesn't want war.
And here we are.
We're in war now. We are in the war.
And it is just it's so amazing
[00:24:36]
how small brained Trump is to fall
for this because a strong a strong Trump.
If he were strong, he would have
told Bibi, no, do not attack.
I'm about to make this deal and that
will make the world a safer place.
And we will have an ability to go in
and observe their nuclear program.
[00:24:55]
And as you said,
bring the weaponization out and they can
have nuclear energy, but they won't have
a weaponized nuclear program.
And so that's what a strong leader
would have done.
But on the other hand,
we've got Trump in office
and he's just, you know, went along.
[00:25:11]
Here we go. And perhaps he'll do what?
Like, if you recall,
with Russia and Ukraine,
he said, I'll have it solved on day one.
And here we are several months later,
and he's kind of put his hands in the air
and been like, let him just figure it out.
And so similarly in this, in this
situation, Jenk as you were saying, we're
[00:25:28]
just going to keep funding Israel and
Trump's going to say, oh, let them just
let them just do whatever they got to do.
And we'll see where this leads
and where this unfortunately,
if you look at history,
where this will lead is to hundreds
of thousands of innocent Iranians dying,
probably several thousand Israelis,
several thousand, possibly
[00:25:46]
several thousand American soldiers.
And it's it's going
to be a repeat of Iraq or Afghanistan.
I mean, that's
what it feels like right now.
And, and so, once again, Donald Trump
was played by Bibi Netanyahu.
Yeah, super weak on his part.
[00:26:02]
And even a lot of MAGA is saying
that every time you ring the bell below,
an angel gets its wings.
Totally not true.
But it does keep you updated
on our live shows.
