  Speaker 1: Let's do this.
• 0:02
  Speaker 2: They radical fundamental principles of freedom, rational self interest, and
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: individual rights.
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: This is the Iran Brook Show.
• 0:20
  Speaker 2: All right, everybody welcome to run book show on this Saturday,
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: February twenty eight. This is my I don't know four
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: fit six attempts to livestream this morning.
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: So I'm in It's actually noon. I'm in London.
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: This will be a short show because I have a
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: seminar in a few minutes that I'm giving.
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: Here in London regarding capitalism.
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: But I did want to say a few things about
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: the war that just broke out with Yvonne as of
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: this morning, the United States and Israel and a coordinated, planted,
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: well advanced effort, it seems.
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: Attacked Iran, both military.
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: Targets all over Iran, as well as leadership targets. So
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: for example, the compound of Ayatu Lahamini, the Supreme leader
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: of Ion, was attacked and seemingly from videos I've seen,
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: completely destroyed. I doubt that he was there. He had
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: probably been evacuated in advance. I think the Iranians had
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: an idea that this was happening tonight. It is why
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: they sent out the ambassador. The old money and Ambassador
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: to the United States yesterday to CBS to tell the
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: world that the Iranians were ready to compromise and that
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: the deal was on the table. They were trying to delay,
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: they were trying to postpone, but to no avail. It
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: seems like both the Trump administration and Israel will committed
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: to attacking this morning.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: So far, the Iranian.
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: Response is being to launch something like thirty five ballistic
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: missiles towards Israel. As far as I can tell, most
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: of those were shot down. Some dropped into empty areas,
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: so they didn't try to shoot them down because they
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: were going to not harm anything. As far as I know,
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: there's one likely injured person in Israel. Other than that, no,
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: you know, no casualties. In addition, the Iranians struck American
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: bases in Bahrain. They struck and it seems like they
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: actually hit the US Navy fifth Fleet headquarters in Bahrain.
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: They attacked Quait, they attacked, They attempted to attack a
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: use basis in Jordan and in the UAE, as well
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: as at least one missile dropping in Riad in Saudi Arabia.
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: This seems to be a massive strategic mistake on the
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: part of the Iranians. Because again, let me just say,
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: I should have said this already fog of war.
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: I meanything I tell you now could turn out to
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: be wrong.
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: You know, I'm basing what I'm telling you now on
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: the news on Israeli telegram channels and on what I'm
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: seeing on X And I did see a statement from
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: the Saudis on X. Again, it could be false, But
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: what I've seen so far is that that the given
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: the attack on Saudi Arabia, given attack on Riad, Saudi
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: Arabia is now willing to assist the United States in
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: any way that it can in its attack on Iran.
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: So in a sain, Saudi Arabia's joining Israel in the
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: United States in opposition to youran. And this is major
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: because it means it opens up Saudi.
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: Arabianth space.
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: To the US, which is a huge advantage in terms
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: of attacking around.
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: If they'd had it scoot around said.
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: A space, it would have been impossible or very very difficult.
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: What else can I tell you?
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: So so far, again, no real interceptions, Only thirty five
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: missiles launched towards Israel. The Iranians were promising hundreds, if
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: not thousands of missiles towards israel I suspect they still
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: have not recovered from the Twelve Day War. Many of
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: their launchers were destroyed. Then many of their launchers.
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: Are being destroyed as we speak.
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: The ballistic missiles capabilities are significantly deteriorated from what they
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: were in the Twelve Day War, and within hours they
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: will be, you know, significantly reduced even further. Supposedly, the
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: Auranians of US have launched a significant number of drones
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: towards Israel. It takes those drones a long time to
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: get to Israel, and on the way, one would expect
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: the Jordanian Air Force and the Israeli Air Force and
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: the American Air Force to knock those.
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: Out of the sky.
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: I believe that today's attacks.
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: Involved American Tomahawk missiles.
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: These are cruise missiles that reached.
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: Well into Iran and the Israeli Air Force.
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: I do not believe, but again I'm not sure, and
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: I don't know for certain. I do not believe that
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: the American Air Force has been engaged yet, that American
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: planes have been engaged yet so far as being primarily
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: Tomahawk missiles, my guesses launched from the many ships that
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: are in the Arabian seas. You've got an aircraft carrier
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: and many other ships in the region.
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: What else can I tell you?
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: Again, senior Uranian officials were targeted. So this was a
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: decapitation attempt, no question. They went after the President of Yuan,
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: the Supreme Leader of Yuwon, the many political leaders underneath
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: the Supreme Leader, including the entire military leadership of the
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: Islamic Revolutionary Guard, including the Bashij forces, the ones that
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: suppress the suppress the demonstrations. Those headquarters have been attacked.
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: Israeli air Force and American missiles have hit at least
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: half a dozen different cities, maybe up to a dozen
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: different cities, and many targets within those cities, and of
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: course many.
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: Targets within the area of Tehran.
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: As far as I can tell, the Iranians have suffered
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: significant leadership casualties, that its significant leaders within the Ranian
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: regime are being killed. We don't know the details yet.
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: I've seen some names come across, including the person responsible
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: for killing for the executions of many of the demonstrators
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: after the demonstrations earlier earlier in the year.
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: So clearly this was.
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: An attempt to go after leadership, political and military, and
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: how successful all of that was is yet to be determined.
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: In addition, there are reports that the Islamic Revolutionary Guard
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: bases were attacked significantly and that there are potentially hundreds,
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: maybe more casualties in among the Islamic Revolutionary Guards. So
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: all of that is an incredible success. Donald Trump, in
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: his speech as this was all being launched, basically to
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: his credit, declared a regime change is one of the.
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: Goals of the Commission.
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: That is the first time anybody's talked about regime change
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: in the context of action against Iran.
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: And as I've as I've told you in.
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: The past, overthrowing the Iranian regime getting rid of the
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: Mullahs will be the most important, most significant geopolitical event
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: at least since.
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: The fall of the Berlin Wall, if not even earlier
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: than that.
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: So certainly of the twenty fourth century and well into
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: the twentieth century.
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: This is huge, and.
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: This will have ramifications for Europe. It has ramifications for
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: the entire Middle East. It has ramifications for the United States.
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: It is taking out a significant enemy of the West.
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: It is taking out a significant enemy of or significant
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: supporter of Islamist movements.
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: All over the world.
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: This will reduce the threat of Islamism in Europe. This
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: will reduce the threat of Islamism really globally. This is
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: the most important thing that can be done in order
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: to bring about more peace in the world now. So
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: kudos to Donald Trump for doing this. I don't think
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: a Democrat would have done this. Kamala Harris would not
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: have launched this attack. She would have compromised, she would
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: have cut another Obama like deal with the Iranians. No
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: way would this be happening under Kamala presidency.
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: On the other hand, I do believe.
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: That pretty much any of the other Republicans running for
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: presidents would have done this, and maybe would have done
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: this earlier. And maybe we would have done this during
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: the Twelve Day War and saved us and saved many
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: Uranian lives in the process. So while Democrats would not
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: have done this, at least not Kamala, I think some
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: Democrats would have, but not Kamala. I think pretty much
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: more to the Republican candidates for president that we're running
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: in the primary would have done this. So good for
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: Donald Trump for doing this, But I don't think Donald
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: Trump is the only person.
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: Out there who would have done it.
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: This could be the best thing that Donald Trump has
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: done in his entire presidency. He hasn't done many good things,
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: and this would stand out as the best, by far,
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: the most significant, and something that I think will benefit
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: the United.
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: States for a long long time.
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: Given all that, basically, this attack is unconstitutional, and we
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: have to recognize that Congress is not given its approval.
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: This is not an emergency. It did not have to
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: be done today.
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: This has been planned now for well over a month,
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: from starting from early to mid January.
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: This has been in the works.
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: There was no problem in going to Congress and asking
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: for conditional use of force conditioned on the President's assessment
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: the negotiations would fail or not just given the President
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: discretion as to when and how to launch an attack
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: against you onan no secrecy would have had to be violated. No,
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: this wouldn't have had to hamper hamper this effect of surprise.
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: So absolutely no reason why the administration did not go
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: to Congress and ask other than Trump doesn't believe he
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: should he needs to he should ask.
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: I think you would have got an easy majority. I
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: think a significant.
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: Number of Democrats would have voted for this as well
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: as most of the Republicans, not all of them. Paul
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: would have probably voted against it, but most Republicans would
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: have voted for it and supported the president, so there's
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: no reason not to have gone to Congress. It is
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: unfortunate because there's sets precedents, and it further establishes kind
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: of Trump's above the law positioning, which is tragic and
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: unfortunate and we will pay for in the future. Given
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: all that, again, I'm supportive of a war against Ivan.
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: I would have liked to see congressional approval for it.
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: I think this is crucial for American national security, has
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: been should has been a priority for the last forty years.
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: It is forty years in the making. It is forty
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: years in a sense late. Many people have died for
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: no reason because you know, the United States didn't act
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: forty years ago.
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: But better late than ever.
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: Let's hope that the United States and a Israel are committed.
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: I think as well is the United States now has
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: to commit to following through all the way and achieving
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: regime change, not backing down, not backing off. There will
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: be a lot of pressure the European Union as usual
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: is very weak on the Middle East. The European Union
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: is just awful. The European Union has now basically joined
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: Russian condemning this or certain people within the EU. To Kemy, Kemy,
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: the leader of the Conservative Party here in the UK,
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: to her credit, to her credit.
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: She supports this mission. So good for her.
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: You know, maybe one day she'll be Prime Minister. I
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: doubt it, but maybe one day that would be great.
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: As just of my mind. I am here live. We're
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: coming to you from London. The UK woke up this
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: morning to the news of these attacks.
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: Again. The United States launched Tomahawk missiles. I do not know.
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: Yet if American airplanes are participating in what is going
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: on right now, but these Raelis are hitting hundreds of
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: targets all over western Iran, you know, dozens of pockets.
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: One of the goals Donald Trump sat for this mission
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: was the destruction of the Iranian navy. I guess the
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: thing to watch for in the hours, in the next
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: few hours is will the Iranians try to block.
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: The straits of home Wares.
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: If they do, do they have the capability to do that?
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: In this initial strike, was the Iranian navy taken out
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: that seems to me to be the United states Is
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: primary initial target, other than kind of regime targets, is
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: to take out the Navy to prevent them from from
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: blocking the straits of home woes. I think Israel is
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: dealing with ballistic missiles, that its primary target to prevent
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: them from firing at Israel. But the United States should
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: be taking out.
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: The Iranian the Iranian Navy.
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: I'm just checking out the telegram channels. We're seeing we're
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: seeing missiles that the Iranians launched at Quaits being shot down. Uh,
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: you know other places where missiles, I mean, most of
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: the missiles Iran a shot have been I mean a knockdown.
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: It does look like, uh, there was a significant hit
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: of an Iranian missile onto the sixth fifth Fleet headquarters
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: in Bahrain. So so that seems I mean, you can
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: see plumes of large amounts of smoke. They had something
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: of value. Let's hope they no casualties. Let's hope there
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: were no Americans killed during that. It's it's it's really
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: hard to tell who in Iran has been hit and
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: who who who has survived and who has died. Yeah,
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: mcn has come out and said it has condemned their tank.
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: The Hutis are saying that they will participate and help
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: the Uranian Again. I'm seeing a lot of photos out
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: of Bahrain. I'm also seeing damage at the American base
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: in Kata. It seems that Kuta was hit as well,
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: and the plumes of smoke coming out of the Air
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: Force base in Karta. The Spanish have condemned the American attack.
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: The Ranians are claiming this is you know, this is
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: to be expected. But the Ranians are claiming that a
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: school was hitting the attack this morning and that forty
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: students were killed and forty eight were injured. Now, whether
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: there's true or not, whether that is a false flag
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: or not, you know, impossible to tell at this point.
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: But that is the Uranians claiming to try to make
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: to try to make the Americans and Israelis look as.
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: Bad as possible.
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: All indications are again early indications are that this has
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: been planned for months, that this was a plan in
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: detail during Beniamin Nataniao's visits to the United States and
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: his meeting with Trump.
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: Uh it the UH and and UH.
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: The negotiations were probably just a cover UH and UH
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: a way to delay so that Trump could get American
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: assets into place. Nteniao's argument to Trump when Trump wanted
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: to launch something during the demonstrations was which your planning
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: is too small and too significant. You need a lot
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: more assets, and you need to make this decisive. And
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: that is why it's been delayed for about a month.
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: Uh let's see, you know, Israeli hospitals moving to emergency settings,
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: they're going into underground, the transferring patients into underground facilities.
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: They are still you know, expecting, expecting bad stuff. One
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: of the most amazing things out of this is I
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: have seen videos on x coming out of you on
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: of people celebrating.
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: I mean, the city is.
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: Being bombed and people are going out into the street
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: and dancing and playing music and celebrating.
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: The Iranian people.
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: The Ranian people, my assumption, is extraordinarily happy about what.
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: Is going on.
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: This is again, this seems to be a move to
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: decapitate this regime, to replace this regime to and the
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: Ranian people are the ones that will be the greatest
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: beneficiaries if that happens. But as I said before, this
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: is a major geopolitical event. I told you already this
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: is going to be more substantial then anything else that's
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: happened since the fall.
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: Of the building wall. So let's say I'm just scanning
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: kind of what is going on on Twitter.
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you can see more videos Iranians are celebrating as
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: US and Israeli strikes hit targets in the Islamic regime.
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: Oh.
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: One of the targets hit, which I find interesting, is
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: one of the targets hit.
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: Was the home of the former Uranian.
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: President Amin Najad, who is one of the more one
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: of the worst of of the Uranian presidents. And this
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: suggests that the United States and Israel are also targeting
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: former regime leaders so that there's no kind of excuse
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: for you know, somebody maybe claiming to be more moderate
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: coming and replacing them. They want this the Islamic regime God,
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: no matter under what guys, they want them gone. Supposedly
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: the commanding General, the number one person on the Islamic
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: Revolutionary Guard, has been eliminated. This is the guy who
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: directed the massacre of tens of thousands of Iranians in January.
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: Of course, he is the guy whos leading the Islamic
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: Revolutionary regards to him, getting out, going out. Supposedly, the
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: chief adviser to Kamini, who was chief military advisor, has
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: been eliminated. In addition, Gulam Hussein Musneijai, the head of.
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: The judiciary in Iran.
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: So this is the head of the religious Mulla driven
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: judiciary in Iran supposedly has been eliminated. Again, this is
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: all fog of war. This is all very early. We're
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: not sure. This is a guy who executed thousands of
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: protesters by hanging them during the Woman's Life Freedom Uprising
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: and during the recent more recent protests. Nobody deserves the
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: death sentence more than the sky. This is fantastic news
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: that he has been eliminated, and I'm sure the Aanians
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: are clearly celebrating. As I said, the IDEA has targeted
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: a Supreme Leader Homony's palace in Tehran.
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: It's been destroyed. Now it's hard to tell.
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: Whether he was there, but it does it does seem
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: like satellite images of the Supreme Leader's palace that multiple
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: buildings have been destroyed, completely destroyed, wiped out, the ultimate targeted.
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: You know. Israeli official explicitly confirmed that.
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: Haminy was among several high ranking Iranian figures targeted by
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: this morning's IDEF wave of strikes. There's no confirmation one
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: way or the other about where he where, how many
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: might be, what his condition is, has has he survived.
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: There's good reason to believe that he was evacuated from
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: that location before the strikes, but nobody knows at this point.
• 21:56
  Speaker 2: The Iranians, of course, are saying, everybody's alive, everything's fine.
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: You know, this is again unprecedented.
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: Even during the Twelve Day War, the Israelis did not
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: target the top leadership of the Iranian regime. They did
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: not target the president and the Supreme Leader. This is
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: a different level of striking and they wouldn't have done
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: this without American, American go ahead and American support. So
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: this is clearly an attempt to regime change, and not
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: just an attempt to significantly weaken the regime, but to
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: replace it.
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: Through and through. Yeah, yeah, it does look like.
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: The command of runs a lesiducity god has been killed.
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: In Multiple sources are claiming that high school kids in
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: Iwan celebrating and thanking, thanking Trump for striking the regime
• 22:55
  Speaker 2: in Iran.
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: They're yelling, I love Trump.
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: The students are yelling, He'll He'll get a lot of
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: new fans in Iran.
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: If this is, if he succeeds in pulling this off.
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: At least some people in Germany are supporting the strike,
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: so Europe is not speaking with one voice. Crown Prince
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: who Reza Paulavi has already.
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: Put out a statement.
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: He put it out earlier this morning, basically telling the
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: Iranians to stay home, to hunk it down, but that
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: they will come, and that he will expect him to
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: go into the streets and take over when the time comes,
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: but now is not the time. I will also note
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: that there are pictures coming out of Tehran of basically
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: millions of people trying to flee the city. The streets
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: are clogged completely, they are cars heading out of town.
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: This happened during the Twelve Day War as well, but
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: this is, you know, this is this huge in terms
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: of a huge evacuation basically of the city. It's you know,
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: it's going to be interesting if if the Republican, if
• 24:15
  Speaker 2: there is an attempt to actually get approval from Congress
• 24:19
  Speaker 2: on Monday for these strikes, that is, will they invoke
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: the World Powers Act? Will Congress act to legitimize this?
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: I hope so, I hope Congress actually acts it looks
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: like there was a direct hit by the Iranians in Jordan,
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: so seven countries. The Iranians have hit seven countries, which
• 24:37
  Speaker 2: basically guarantees that the Jordanian Air Force will now help
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: the Israelis knock down drones and knock down missiles.
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: It guarantees that.
• 24:44
  Speaker 2: Jordan will allow probably allow his ors to fly over
• 24:47
  Speaker 2: its airspace, as will Saudi Arabia. I think it's a
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: huge strategic mistake for the Iranians to make this a
• 24:54
  Speaker 2: regional effort because now the whole region is oriented against
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: the Iranians.
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: Let me see, uh what else is going on?
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: Uh?
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, more videos and videos.
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: Of of young Uranians burning the burning the Uranian flag
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: and raising up the old flag of the monarchy. So
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: the old Uranian flag. Let's see, we talked about that. Yeah,
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: you know, UK is condemning this attack, including Ben Rhodes,
• 25:40
  Speaker 2: who's good on other stuff. Uh, I mean the Uranian
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: This attack on Iran is also going to help Ukrainians
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: because it takes out a significant ally of Russia, provider
• 25:59
  Speaker 2: of drones and and and other technologies. So if this
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: is regime changed, that will help. That will help as well.
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: Let's say let's just list of countries that have been
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: hit by the Iranians. Bahrain, US fifth fleet u E
• 26:15
  Speaker 2: interceptions confirmed, one civilian killed by debris. Kata missiles intercepted
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: no damage although ISO smoke coming out of a photo,
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: so maybe maybe.
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: There's an update.
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: Quite missiles dealt with in its a space, so they
• 26:30
  Speaker 2: were shot down. Jordan to ballistic missiles shot down, but
• 26:35
  Speaker 2: we saw one has actually hit Saudi Arabia. There's some
• 26:39
  Speaker 2: claims supposedly unverified of a hits in Riyad.
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: Let's see.
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it looks like the Iranians the Saudis have come
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: up with the statement uh saying, let's see the King
• 27:01
  Speaker 2: of Saudi Arabia strongly condemned and denounces the blatant the
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: Iranian aggression and violations of the sovereignty of both the
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: United Arab Emirates, the Kingdom of Bahrain, the State of Qatar,
• 27:11
  Speaker 2: the State of Kwait, and the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan
• 27:13
  Speaker 2: the Kingdom of Firms. It's full solidarity and standing alongside.
• 27:19
  Speaker 2: It's just the countries and places all capabilities at their
• 27:22
  Speaker 2: disposal in any measure they take.
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: It. Warns of the grave.
• 27:26
  Speaker 2: Consequences of the continued violation of state sovereignty and principles
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: of international law.
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: The King of Saudi Arabia calls for.
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: The international community condemned these blatant attacks and to take
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: all necessary and firm measures to confront the Iranian violations
• 27:40
  Speaker 2: and undermine the security stability of the region. So it
• 27:43
  Speaker 2: doesn't mention the US and it doesn't mention Israel. All right,
• 27:48
  Speaker 2: this is ongoing and there will be.
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: Ongoing developments during the day.
• 27:55
  Speaker 2: I have a seminar to go and teach right now
• 27:57
  Speaker 2: on capitalism, which I will do for the next four hours,
• 28:03
  Speaker 2: but I will I will be back. Hopefully this new
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: setup of internet connection will work. I will be back
• 28:13
  Speaker 2: later today and you know, give you an update on
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: what has happened quickly. You know, the first wave there
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: were thirty thirty targets in the first wave are million
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: too Hran. They included leadership, residents and intelligence facilities and
• 28:34
  Speaker 2: of course we said the Supreme Leader's office. This unlike
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: the twelve Day War, which started with a nighttime strikes,
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: this happened early in the morning, which is a little different.
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: I'm not sure why. Maybe it was to try to
• 28:55
  Speaker 2: I don't know, to get to get leadership in the workplace.
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: How to tell? It really does look like decapitation. Let
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: me see.
• 29:08
  Speaker 2: Ah, yeah, I don't think there's anything new in this post,
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: all right, As I said, I will be back later
• 29:15
  Speaker 2: today with updates on what is going on, uh and
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: exactly exactly.
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: Kind of.
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: You know, we'll have a lot more information about the
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: targets and about the response and about potentially the casualties
• 29:35
  Speaker 2: on the Iranian On the Iranian side, this might be quick.
• 29:42
  Speaker 2: I mean, if they can get to the to the leaders,
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: and they can really get the leaders, this might be quick. Again,
• 29:49
  Speaker 2: we can see photographs of the Aulahamines facility.
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: It's completely destroyed.
• 30:02
  Speaker 2: Okay, supposedly Netanyao is up in the equivalent of Air
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: Force one up above Israel, so he's he's taken off.
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: I guess their fears of significant additional attacks against Israel.
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: I don't know. And yeah, there's a there's a.
• 30:25
  Speaker 2: Video where Trump is just talking to a bunch of
• 30:28
  Speaker 2: people and where he is invoking attacks against US marines
• 30:31
  Speaker 2: and Berut eleven in nineteen eighty three. Good, US is
• 30:35
  Speaker 2: coal bombing in two thousand, good in October seventh. Aid,
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: I mean, he could add a lot more to that
• 30:41
  Speaker 2: list of of what Iranians you know of Iranians killing Americans.
• 30:51

• 31:26
  Speaker 2: earlier this morning in aery shelters, as you would expect,
