0:25
This is Wayne Alan Root, Raw and Unfiltered, but America's favorite conservative
0:30
rock star, direct from the entertainment capital of the world, Last Vegas.
0:35
What time is it. It's time war War. Here's your host, one
0:41
hundred percent Raw Truth, one hundred percent American made the Warrior, Wayne Alan
0:48
Root. Well, here we go. Welcome to the USA Audio Network Raw
1:07
and Unfiltered. My name is Lee elc and on Fridays for the first hour,
1:11
I get a chance to hang out with you. Christopher's down there in
1:15
Dallas, Texas making it all go. Wayne will be here in exactly sixty
1:19
minutes. We're going to start this hour off with a very special guest.
1:25
I don't recall ever getting the honor to talk to my next guest, So
1:30
this is a first for me. A great biographer, a historian, Lord
1:34
Conrad Black's joining the conversation. He's got a well we're calling an ambitious project,
1:42
The Political and Strategic History of the World, Volume one there's a lot
1:47
there. Man, that's a that's a heavy title, sir, how are
1:49
you today? I'm fine, thanks, and you're right it is. It's
1:53
a heavy title. But my theory is, and the reason I'm doing it
1:59
is that I think you can put it all out there, not in excruciating
2:04
detail, but in you know, meaningful outline. So it's got a shape
2:08
to it and in readable form by particularly emphasizing dramatic events and especially flamboyant personalities
2:20
in three volumes, in each of about a thousand words. And I'm three
2:23
quarters of the way through the second volume now, which will get us up
2:27
almost to the American Revolution. But you know, look, the history of
2:30
the world, there's a lot of history. And this makes no pretense to
2:36
covering all of sociology and culture and various other human activities. We're really talking
2:42
about how people developed from clans and tribes into coherent government, and how government
2:50
developed and relations between governments developed. And it's not just a chronology, you
2:57
know, in the two teen PC, so and so was elected consolely something.
3:05
It's a you know, it follows the developments and influential personalities. In
3:12
general. I think that people make history, and it's made by the most
3:17
imminent personalities, and this book. The four people on the on the jacket
3:23
of the book in the front of it are Moses, Socrates, Alexander the
3:29
Great, and Julius Caesar. Now they weren't my choices, but they're representative
3:32
choices, and they are all influential today in what they did then. So
3:38
it doesn't go all the way back to when God says, let there be
3:42
light. It picks up somewhere. Well, I only go back as far
3:46
as what is verifiable history. You know, I don't get into urchaeology very
3:52
much. I don't get into folklore very much, just what you can verify.
3:57
And then in the sort of Old Testament. Here I do point out
4:02
this is what the Old Testament says, but at various points I mentioned that
4:10
this has to be handled with caution. It's a matter of faith and not
4:15
deducible fact. You think, Oh, so, so where do you pick
4:18
it up, though, where does it begin? Well, when it becomes
4:21
accurate, I mean generally a summary of what happened in the case of Mesopotamia
4:30
and the ancient Jews about two thousand BC, in the case of the Egyptian
4:35
slightly before then, and all of the others come a bit after, and
4:41
you know it's initially focused on the Middle East. I'm not getting into what
4:46
you know, what happened else through. The other other founding places are India
4:48
and China. I start them also in the second millennium BC, and then
4:58
you collect them all together, take them forward, and this volume gets us
5:01
up to the death of the Emperor, the first Emperor Augustus, which you
5:09
know, he was the head of an amazing empire that had been built out
5:12
of out of all this savagery and primitiveness. In those days, you could
5:16
get a letter from Rome to what is now Istanbul and about the same time
5:21
as it takes now, unless you use a courier. You know, you
5:25
could travel from what is now Lisbon to Istanbul perfectly, safely on the roads
5:30
that the Romans built. It was an amazing empire. Lord Conrad Black is
5:34
our guest. The Political and Strategic History of the World, Volume one.
5:39
As he was saying earlier, there are going to be three volumes. This
5:44
one takes us up to the Revolutionary War, right, that's what you said.
5:47
No, No, this one takes us up to the death of the
5:50
Emperor Augusta in fourteen eighty. The second one that I'm working on now,
5:56
I'm right at this time, I'm actually up to Elizabeth and the time of
6:01
Shakespeare and Henry the Fourth in France. But I'll get it up to almost
6:06
the American Revolution, Okay. But so I you know, we brought it
6:10
a long way forward here, and I know again, prior to starting on
6:15
this, I thought of you were talking about, you know, Henry the
6:18
fifth and you know, once more into the Preach and so forth, you
6:23
were not only in the Middle Ages, you were just an absurdly long time
6:28
ago, and everything that happened prior to that you could summarize in fifty pages.
6:31
But that's not quite how it happened. And I think it is very
6:38
interesting how we got where we are, and a lot of it is from
6:42
a very long time ago. How do you bring it all together? I
6:46
mean, are you weaving stories about each of these individuals or the specific events?
6:50
And you know, I've got when I used some basic texts like the
6:59
Cambridge change in history in the Cambridge Medieval History and so on, where you
7:04
get In the case of those two A series, you've got twenty volumes of
7:12
about eight hundred pages each, and they put out all the known facts,
7:16
and you know, I say, I take it from there. And of
7:21
course the bibliography is immense for Cambridge. I don't put all that stuff in.
7:27
I only put in things that are actual quotes or that, or where
7:30
there's any contention about it, and you put in a reference. But the
7:36
most history is generally agreed upon. And then you know, all historians have
7:43
the right to a bit of interpretation, and I do mine too, But
7:47
if it's speculative, I identified a sent It's the gap we're missing in journalism
7:56
today, the one I used to enforce when I was in that and owned
8:00
newspapers, is between reporting and comment. Well, here, as I tried
8:05
to do when I was a newspaper publisher, you make a clear distinction.
8:09
It is it is indisputable that Alexander the Great lived in these years and did
8:15
these things, and I believe that the result of such and so was it
8:20
was this and agency so. But you can, you know, you can
8:24
see how people's concepts of what government should consist of grew. I mean,
8:31
you had in Greek and Roman times you had some elements of democracy, h
8:37
and you had, you know, some elements of a judicial system. Pretty
8:45
rudimentary by best standards today, but still you had some and then it gradually
8:52
you had some elements of education even but it was of course confined to a
8:58
minority of people. Did it move from savagery to sort of civility? Is
9:03
there a certain well in most of the world, you know, it came
9:07
on a different timetable, and there's still parts of the world where you could
9:11
make the case. We haven't quite made that job. I mean, the
9:16
first stages of it were in India, China, and the Middle East up
9:26
to point Mesopotamia and Egypt, and that would have been around one thousand BC.
9:33
And then, as I say, by the time of the Emperor of
9:37
Augustus and he and his adoptive father Julius Caesar, his great uncle, but
9:48
Julius Caesar adopted him, the two together really governed the known world apart from
9:54
India and China for nearly sixty well actually you're little over seventy years, which
10:01
was astounding these two men. And they were very, very capable men.
10:05
And by that time, you know, you had you had organized government all
10:13
around the Mediterranean, all through France, through England up to the Scottish border
10:20
in Egypt down to the border of Ethiopia and in the east as far as
10:26
Iran. And you know, it was functioning government. So look it was.
10:35
It wasn't a government that made an absolute principle that everyone could say anything
10:43
they wanted, or that reviewed the leadership of the jurisdiction in completely democratic ways,
10:50
but there was a process and in general it was enforced. His name
10:54
is Lord Conrad Black, and he's got a brand new book he's putting out
10:58
there for the Political and Strategic History of the World, Volume one, and
11:05
Conrad, I want to keep you around one more segment. I've got a

17:10
will be here before you know it, right after the top of the hour.
17:15
I've got a guest coming up in just a few minutes, Stephen Bouci
17:18
from the Heritage Foundation. We'll dissect all things military and political with him.
17:22
But for now, Lord Conrad Black again as our guest. We're talking about
17:26
his latest endeavor, which again it's a three part thing, and this could
17:30
be it's fascinating to me, the Political and Strategic History of the World,
17:33
Volume one, and we're talking a little bit about that. I'm going to
17:37
circle back to his media days before we run out of time here. But
17:41
I'm sure this is a very pedestrian question I'll ask in any way. You
17:44
probably get asked it all the time. But as you're digging through all this
17:45
stuff, who's the one person in history that stands above and beyond everyone else?
17:51
And then on the reverse side of that, who is the disappointment that
17:56
we think more of them than they actually accompl in what they actually were for
18:02
us? You mean in this first volume? Yeah, in the first volume.
18:04
Yeah, Look, I think the can I can I give a couple
18:10
of people. Of course, well, I think as the public, which
18:17
I accept, most people aren't terribly preoccupied with the ancient world. No,
18:21
and neither was I. But I think most people would if you ask them,
18:25
say, well, you know the ones that are the most famous to
18:27
me or Alexander the Great and Julius Caesar, and and that that would be
18:33
reasonabhy. I'd add Caesar's as I say, his successor Octavian, Augustus the
18:40
Emperor, Augustus Caesar. But those three would be the most arresting figures there.
18:47
There were others, certainly, but it was astonishing what they accomplished.
18:52
They were, uh, they were conquerors on the same scale as New Pollion,
19:00
only they haven't suffered the the the you know, the problem that in
19:08
the end they were defeated like Napoleon was so so they haven't been denigrated as
19:12
he has been by you know, the British claimed he was an evil man.
19:17
I personally don't think he was, but you can make that case.
19:21
But the what they achieved was absolutely astounding. I mean, Alexander took over
19:29
the little country of Macedonia, you know, which now just the southern part
19:33
of the former Yugoslavia. I think he was technically born in what is now
19:37
Albania, which is even more obscure. And he built up his empire that
19:42
extended all the way to India, and he started them all out to learn
19:48
Greek, which was the most advanced civilization, and he set them up as
19:53
proper and you know, let's say, humanely governed jurisdic and there was no
20:00
effort to throw him out because he won. He was not the sort of
20:04
guy who got thrown out of things. But secondly, he gave much better
20:08
government than they'd had before, and that was the secret of the Romans.
20:12
They lowered taxes, facilitated travel and trade all around the Mediterranean in Western Europe,
20:21
and governed more successfully and more fairly than what had been there before.
20:26
Now, of course, there's some others who were in this narrative who are
20:30
important for essentially at least not exactly non political reasons, but not for direct
20:37
government reasons, like Moses, or if you say, or Socrates for example.
20:44
Both of them were on the front jacket of the book. But you
20:48
talked about people who are a bit surprising. I always assumed I'm a Christian
20:55
but David and Solomon were unambiguously guarded by the Jewish people as very great leaders.
21:03
But you know, there's great controversy about them. All sorts of people
21:07
think they were absolute scoundrels, and I didn't know that until I got into
21:11
this. I got to jump in because I'm going to run out of time,
21:14
and I wanted to ask you. You know, your whole life revolved
21:15
around the media for so long, and with newspaper publications and owning newspapers.
21:19
I got to ask you, I mean, are you looking at the media
21:22
landscape right now with incredible disappointment? Do you think they're even remotely doing what
21:26
they're supposed to be doing? First question, yes, incredible disappointment. Second
21:33
question, no, they're not doing what they're supposed to be doing. And
21:37
I'll pose it'll answer question you didn't ask, and that is I think it
21:41
is dangerous. I mean, all the polls show in the United States,
21:45
but not uniquely in the United State. It's a similar trend throughout the Western
21:52
world, which includes parts of Far East like Japan and Australian So they're is
22:00
a majority of you that you can't trust the media, and they have earned
22:06
that distrust and we can't run a democracy without a free press. We have
22:12
to have it. And when the public doesn't trust it, it is indifferent
22:18
about it, and that is dangerous. Ultimately, that is dangerous. Now.
22:23
They upside of it is, you know, when I was a young
22:26
person, and this would apply to I'm not that at all. This would
22:32
apply to many of your listeners. The influential media in the United States consisted
22:37
of three television networks, a couple of newspapers, a couple of magazines,
22:42
and that was pretty much yet and they between them, they divided the entire
22:48
market. Listen, it was a pleasure talking to you. Thank you.
22:51
I appreciate it very much. And the pleasures mind. Thanks for inviting me.

29:19
Stephen, thank you for joining us. As always, last time we talked,
29:22
we were getting into the kouthies and why we weren't responding. But since
29:26
then we've been able to hit back, or have been hitting back. Can
29:30
you give me your thirty thousand foot military view of our response to what's going
29:36
on over in Yemen. Well, you know, I was happy they did
29:40
what they did, the heck of a lot better than what they had done
29:42
before, which was very little prior to that. I still think we're being
29:48
a little tepid in you know, making sure we minimize the human damage.
29:56
You know, these are guys who are trying to shoot randomly at ships and
30:00
are terrorists, and you know, I don't think you really need to step
30:07
that lightly with those sort of guys because they don't get it when you send
30:11
nuanced messages. They're more akin you know, they prefer the spledge hammer to
30:17
the scoutfel as far as their understanding. So I think we could do more.
30:22
I was pleased when they shot back after that and we're shaking their fists
30:26
that we went after them again, though not quite to the degree that we
30:30
did in the initial one. So I think a much better response than what
30:36
has been going on. But still I would be targeting more to hit their
30:40
leadership and their i RGC COUDSE Force advisors. If we have the intelligence of
30:47
their location, which I think we do at least a couple of cases,
30:51
can you explain what the hierarchy is as far as the government goes and their
30:55
connection to these rebels. The government in Yemen Is is kind of impotent.
31:00
They're they're yemen Is almost an ungoverned space, and the Hussies are a major
31:07
player in that space, acting independent of the government. Uh. When the
31:15
Saudi's the Hoofi's big problem up to this point where the Saudi they don't think
31:21
the Saudis are bad guys, and they were shooting at them. The Saudis
31:26
came back at them hard. Uh, kind of with the permission of the
31:30
Yemeni government. So uh, I'm guessing that we probably at least let Yemen
31:37
know we were about to hit those targets. Uh. You know, we
31:41
didn't announce it in public, but I don't think we just violated Yemen with
31:47
absolutely no warning whatsoever. Because the Yemeni government, I'm sure there's some housy
31:52
supporters in it, but they're not like working hand in hand together by enemy.
31:59
Gotcha. Our guest is Stephen Bucci from the Heritage Foundation, And last
32:02
week we started to talk about this but ran out of time. I want
32:06
to ask you Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin under want the procedure or two or three
32:12
and was out of the loop yet didn't tell anybody we talked about this,
32:15
and then during that time we were actually going through some military action. So
32:20
my question to you is, since you've been involved in that chain of command,
32:23
does the president actually make these decisions? Do we need a defense Secretary
32:30
is a part of the operational process? How does that whole thing work?
32:34
Well, you know, there's more than one phone going from the Pentagon to
32:37
the White House, so that you know, the Secretary's Defense is the only
32:42
one who could send information to the building the White House, where there are
32:46
lots of people at work. So you know, there's the National Military Command
32:51
Center, banks ask to the operations Center, the ship room in the White
32:57
House. There's people all over the Pentagon staff who talked to people on the
33:01
National Security Council staff. However, all that said that this was a problem.
33:08
You know, the when the sex death goes under a procedure, when
33:15
they are are unavailable for a medical reason like this, there is supposed to
33:22
be. There's a rule that you have to do a formal uh exchange of
33:28
authority to have designated acting set DEBT. It's normally the Deputy Secretary of Defense
33:36
UH and the UH and and everybody has to be notified. The President,
33:42
the White House, all those people are supposed to be notified, all the
33:45
primary subordinates of the sex DEBT, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff,
33:51
the Service Secretary, the do O D under secretaries who were you know,
33:57
the main players. They are civilian wise, are all supposed to know
34:00
that this is going on. I worked for Secretary Secretary rum Sell was very
34:07
private about particularly his health issues. Uh, mostly because he hated having it.
34:13
He just didn't like that. Uh. The old jos hit him,
34:16
but they uh you know, but he understood the rules and he followed them.
34:22
And we always had to do that. Even if you know, if
34:23
you're going to do with something and this offense people, I'm sorry, if
34:27
you have something like philostophy, right or colon colonoscopy, uh, you know,
34:32
and you're you're really under the anesthetic for less than an hour, uh,
34:37
but for that period, there has to be an acting Secretary of defense
34:42
because you don't know what's gonna happen during that hour. Uh And and what
34:46
they did, and we still don't know all the details who made the decision,
34:52
who gave the order to not pass on the information. If if Austin
34:59
said, don't tell anybody, nobody else needs to know this, I'm still
35:02
in charge. I you know, it's not a big deal, then he
35:07
potentially should be fired because that he knowingly violated the rules. If if this
35:13
was the emergency situation, you know, if they did tell people on twenty
35:17
two December that he had the original procedure, okay, that they did that
35:22
right, but then when it turned into the emergency, as they got complications
35:29
and he got rushed to the hospital in an ambulance, he's in the ICU,
35:34
presumably not capable of doing what he's supposed to do. Uh. And
35:38
they didn't tell anybody that that's the process. Stout. Somebody broke the rules,
35:45
right, And if it was Austin who directed it, shame on him.
35:50
If his chief the staff said, well, you know what, we
35:52
could just cover this. Duff will do a you know like President Wilson thing
35:58
where you don't tell anybody had a stroke for two years. Uh, you
36:00
know, let let missus Wilson run things. We don't do that anymore,
36:05
right Uh. And and so we need to know who made that decision,
36:09
and whoever made that decision needs to pay a price for it. Whether you
36:14
know, the president wants to accept Austin's uh resignation over it, that's the
36:20
president's business. But somebody should that at least shoot out in public for what
36:25
they did. Uh. And I'm not seeing that yet. How long does
36:30
it take when you all decide on let's say, ye strike, do you
36:35
have to you have to run it by all those entities that you had just
36:37
mentioned, and eventually to the President of the United States, who would then
36:40
give it a thumbs up or thumbs down. No that all those people don't
36:45
need to know about that, but most of them do because they're part of
36:49
the planning process. You don't do one of these, you know, the
36:52
president or the set that doesn't say, you know what, let's go bog
36:55
yam and all of a sudden planes are taken off. There's there's anything that
37:00
has to go on. There's target selection, there's coordination for logistics. We
37:05
can do it pretty fast, but it takes the knowledge of a lot of
37:08
people. So yeah, it's the Ultimately, the set deaf or the acting
37:15
sex Death and the president are supposed to be the ones who make the decision
37:20
right and in this case, you know, I'm assuming the president did approve
37:25
the strike. Who in DoD made the final recommendation to the president that this
37:32
is the right thing to do. I mean, the Chairman of Joint Chiefs
37:37
of Staff is supposed to be there. He's the primary uniformed advisor to the
37:42
president. But the set death or the set depths official representative and the acting
37:47
person is supposed to be involved in that process. How they get all that
37:52
without Austin being around and no one's designated until like the fifth or sixth as
38:00
the acting and the deputy sex defined case was in Puerto Rico on vacation,
38:05
so she wasn't even in the building. Steven Bucci from the Heritage Foundation,
38:08
let's switch gears. We've got an issue at the southern border where Texas Governor
38:13
Glenn Abbott has basically blocked off an entrance point using his National Guard. The
38:20
FEDS are not happy about it. You've got tensions rising. What's your thoughts
38:23
on this? Uh, you know, we don't ever like to have this,
38:27
you know, we like that cooperation between you know, at those points
38:31
where the responsibility of the federal government and the state government touch each other foreign
38:37
borders or one of those. Obviously the land on the border is part of
38:43
the state. The state is responsible for it, but the federal government is
38:46
supposed to be responsible for monitoring and managing issues between the two countries. There's
38:55
been a lot of confusion and a lot of conflict with this administration and particularly
39:04
the government of Texas, but some of the other border states as well.
39:07
From the beginning. Uh. You know, when Texas decided they wanted to
39:12
put up you know, those big floating barriers on the river so you couldn't
39:17
ride boats across, uh or or swim across. That became an issue,
39:23
uh, and that the federal government didn't just go take them down. They
39:28
had to go to court they get permission to do that. Uh. Same
39:31
thing with some of the barbed wire and stuff that they put up to block
39:36
some of the passages that are illegal crossing points. They're not legal crossing points
39:42
that the federal government runs. They're in between them. Uh. But there
39:46
there's been some legal wrangling that's going on. And this is the latest version
39:52
of that where the state took over a park that was fast becoming an illegal
39:59
staging area on Testas Round right. More of these people that came across the
40:05
river, they sit there, they set up ken and wait for the fence
40:08
to come get them and uh and process them and send them on their way
40:14
and the states and we're not gonna play that anymore. This is the Texas
40:16
terrain. We control it. Ben, You're not doing it, so we're
40:22
gonna take it over. And you guys are done here. And you know,
40:24
Governor Abbott had several times in the last couple of years shown a pretty
40:30
sift sine in doing what the FEO is in the interest of his constituents in
40:37
the state of Texas. Steven, I gotta jump in. We're out of
40:40
time. Thanks again. I appreciate it. Stephen Bouchies. Butchi on Twitter,

46:19
roots, raw and unfiltered. All right, all, welcome back. You
46:29
are listening to the USA Audio Network, all these great stations, dozens of
46:35
stations from one coast to another. Now I am lucky enough to get a
46:38
chance to broadcast from Long Island all the way out to California and everywhere in
46:44
between. Christopher, our producer extraordinaries down in Dallas, Texas, pushing the
46:47
buttons making it all go. I want to play you some audio, and
46:54
this comes from a group of pro Palestinian protesters who are walking on New York's
47:05
Upper East Side and they're approaching the Memorial Sloan Cattering Cancer Center. And inside
47:15
that cancer center as these hundreds of people are walking by, in the windows
47:22
are a group of sick kids, kids with cancer, kids that are fighting
47:28
for their lives. And these protesters who are walking on the outside, all
47:36
wearing their Palestinian colors. They have the Palestinian flags, they're signs that say
47:45
end genocide, cease fire, enough is enough. They point their anger at
47:54
this hospital and they point their anger at the children inside. I want you
48:02
to listen to this audio. Another computing institution, a plan couttering good,
48:20
she says, make sure they hear you. They're in the windows. And
48:24
then the video pans to the hospital and it shows children in the windows.
48:34
These are kids fighting for their lives, shaved heads, with drawn faces,
48:40
with cancer, fighting to live. And these pieces of human trash out front
48:52
went they're feign anger. They're complete classless move continue their rent on you.
49:12
You support genocide Jews, all the folks with their he jobs on, all
49:21
with their Muslim guard walking down a street in New York City. And one
49:28
of my callers made a great point the other day, which was, try
49:32
doing that in a Muslim country. Try having a protest in a Muslim country.
49:40
See what happens. Then it's only in America, places like America or
49:45
Israel where you could stand up for your rights. Free speech is a marvelous
49:52
thing. It's a wonderful thing for a lot of different reasons. One of
49:58
those reasons is it exposes the most terrible people among us. What kind of
50:07
monster do you have to be to direct your rage at children dying of cancer?
50:20
What kind of monster do you have to be to do that? These
50:28
people are why it's impossible to support anything that flows through the Muslim community,
50:38
or on two different wavelengths completely. You want to hear one more time.
50:45
You want to hear people directing this fane outrage, this ignorant outrage at children
50:57
or fighting for their lives, couttering shame on you, and the faces of
51:37
the children in the windows are clearly visible. This is the kind of monster
51:44
that you have aligned yourself with. Good luck with that despicable behavior. Awful.
51:52
