As we all know, Trump has been very salty toward NATO. And what made the matter worse is the fact that our NATO allies refuse to get involved in this war against Iran. Because it turns out that other world leaders are smarter than our world leader, okay? Way smarter than Trump [00:00:19] who got manipulated into entering a devastating war against Iran. Now, he pleaded with our allies to get involved and help the United States. They didn't do that. And as a result, uh he has been posting all sorts of things on Truth Social, including that NATO wasn't there when [00:00:36] we needed them, and they won't be there if we need them again. Remember Greenland, that big poorly run piece of ice, okay? And then this morning he wrote, none of these people, including our own very disappointing NATO, understood anything unless they have pressure [00:00:55] placed upon them. So the head of uh the NATO alliance is somewhat concerned that Trump might pull out and honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if he did. uh So for instance, the Wall Street Journal reported that while the US is not explicitly leaving NATO, the Trump administration is apparently [00:01:13] exploring punishments for those who didn't support the war, including moving some of the US service members that we have based in NATO countries. out of those countries and then moving them into places that are more supportive of the United States. The plan would also involve [00:01:31] closing the base in at least one European country like Spain or Germany. The plan would result in putting more US troops closer to the Russian border, an outcome likely to antagonize Moscow. uh Now, those supportive countries include countries like Poland, Romania, Lithuania, and Greece. [00:01:51] And according to the Wall Street Journal, the uh plan has already gained some support among senior administration officials. But I wanna talk really quickly about why there's this seems like concerted effort to dismantle NATO. Now I have my criticism of NATO, there's no [00:02:07] question about that. But here's what you won't get in mainstream media reporting, including over at the Wall Street Journal. Joe Kent posted this, it's important to know about it. Unfortunately, leaving NATO won't be to avoid foreign entanglements. We'll be leaving NATO so that we can side with Israel when Turkey and Israel eventually clash in Syria. This is after we helped topple the [00:02:28] secular Syrian government and installed a former Al-Qaeda ISIS leader as president. Time to stop playing arsonist and fireman in the Middle East. And I just want to show you what the Israeli president has been publishing lately. Here's an op-ed published in the Jerusalem [00:02:46] Post. Opinion, continue to label Turkey as a reliable NATO ally is dangerous as Ankara's ambitions erode the very aligned structures that have long sustained Western security. Cenk, your thoughts. Yeah, so Naftali Bennett is one of the leading candidates in Israeli [00:03:04] elections later this year. And he has threatened Turkey and he's saying they're the next on on Israel's hit list. And once they're done with Iran, they'll move on to Turkey. uh And he's not alone. uh Several prominent Israeli politicians have said that. So of course, [00:03:23] that's being kept from you as Ana alluded to from my army, mainstream media, which are basically just Israeli propaganda outlets. And so you can't attack Turkey if Turkey's in NATO and we're in NATO. How do you solve it? Well, you and NATO. You take America out of NATO, that [00:03:42] way it's not a problem when Israel attacks NATO. So there's a second part of this too, Ana, which is Israel wants us isolated. Yes. like we're the only ally we have is Israel, so that [00:03:58] we're even more beholden to them and only them. And that they've also attacked the United Nations and they've got, by the way, all the propaganda you've ever seen. The anti-Muslim propaganda your whole life, anti-UN, anti-NATO propaganda, it all comes from Israel. because [00:04:14] the UN keeps sanctioning Israel, so they want to destroy the UN, they want to destroy NATO, so they can keep attacking as many countries as they want. 100%, I totally agree with you. Israel to the United States is like an abusive husband. Isolate your wife from all of her [00:04:29] friends and family, and just use an abuser. That's what they've been doing. Every time you ring the bell below, an angel gets his wings. Totally not true, but it does keep you updated on our live shows.
