  Speaker 1: Alright, well, after a long day being kind of rained out,
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: thanks to Stu Leonard Jr. for joining me. Thanks to
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: Lou Terminello for joining me. But through the rain out,
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: we got some clarity because I was scrolling through my
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: phone as I've been checking emails a lot today and
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: I found something very, very disturbing. Did you know that
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: There indeed have been members of our United States military
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: wounded in this Iran conflict, Iran war, and it's been
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: reported today the Pentagon added 37 new injuries. Without public
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: explanation to the Defense Casualty Analysis System, 29 were Navy
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: sailors and 8 were Marines. 29 Navy and 8 Marines.
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: We've been getting word that the Pentagon, and quite frankly
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: this administration, was not being upfront about how many have
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: actually died in this war. But 861 soldiers for a
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: war where there are no boots on the ground. Doesn't
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: that make you wonder where these numbers keep adding up?
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: Because to me, I have to start wondering. Are we
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: having people on the ground that we don't know about?
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: And there's a death toll between 9,045 and 18,371 people killed,
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: according to militaryspend.org. More than 800 service members have been
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: injured or wounded in the conflict. 19 U.S. military service
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: member deaths. Fatalities may be 22 to 23. But in
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: a war that was supposed to not be on the
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: ground and conducted what looked like via air, via drone, yes,
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: the ships are at risk, our Navy is at risk,
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: that's for sure. I have to say the number of
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: wounded being 861 people, service members, is quite alarming. And
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: we should question what is going on. We are nearing midterms.
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: That's another big thing about this. But overall, we're nearing like, what, seven,
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: eight months of this drag out. Tomorrow, I hear one
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: look up Alex Media. I'm going to play you what
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: Netanyahu and Trump said. At the UNGA. And both their
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: thoughts on Mamdani. Separate ends of the spectrum there. We'll
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: get to that tomorrow. At One Look of Alex News.
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: But this is disappointing. That we are looking at. What
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: seemed to be what happened in 2004. The slow reporting
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: of fatalities. The lack of reporting of fatalities. The. non-truths.
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: And this administration seems to be running that back of
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: not telling us everything. And I thought he was going
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: to have the most honest administration ever, most honest administration
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: of all time, we're the most transparent, we've ended eight wars,
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: all that. So then tell us why on Saturday, September 26, 2026,
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: We're now getting reports, thanks to Just the News, we're
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: reporting on this on the conservative side of things. Really,
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: the news outlet that is not mainstream, but is definitely
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: doing work in John Solomon, making it mainstream, he even
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: is reporting about this addition of 37 soldiers, and overall
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: number of 861 soldiers injured. We need to know everything
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: about this war, about the death toll, about the injuries.
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: Because if we don't, then we are at risk of
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: being blindsided again. And in 04, 05, after mission accomplished,
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: the thing on that ship went all awry. The protests escalated.
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: The hatred toward Bush escalated. And it was pretty bad.
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: The country was pretty divided then. And in many ways,
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: we still are divided today. And I'll say this, and
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: I think I said this back when it happened. They
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: came to us with the proposal to enrich uranium. We
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: went to their heart and soul and gutted it. The
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: Supreme Leader. But I'm very bothered by the fact there
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: didn't seem to be a plan after that. There didn't
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: seem to be a plan after that attack. And now
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: 861 U.S. military members are injured. 19 of them are killed.
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: which is still a whopping number for, again, thinking we
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: have no boots on the ground. So, President Trump, the
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: Secretary of War, what is it? What's contributing to these casualties?
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: We need to know this as we move forward. We
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: need honesty. The reason why I created this podcast is
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: to know what our tax-paying dollars are going to. And
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: if it's going to another war that is to disrupt
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: everything and to maybe be a failure maybe be a
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: success we don't know yet and we need answers we
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: need answers to how 861 soldiers are injured I was
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: reading that some of them went back to the field
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: of battle or the seas of battle right now But
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: I think we ought to know. Don't you? We ought
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: to know why after being told for months we're going
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: to get this war done. We have big plans against Iran.
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: But underneath it all we're having soldiers injured as we're
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: game planning. And that's not being reported enough. It's being
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: slow rolled. And this report comes at a time When
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: the White House has banned CNN, MSNOW, the quote-unquote fake news.
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: And it could be at a time where they're really
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: digging in on President Trump about this war. And when
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: did we last see this type of behavior shutting down
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: any kind of information? On the Democratic side, Governor Cuomo
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: shutting down the Moreland Commission when it got too close
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: to him. That's what this kind of reminds me of.
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: They might be getting too close to the fire, that is,
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: the Iran war. As they continue to unveil or report
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: on or reveal the actual number, the banning makes sense.
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: Does it not? And we shouldn't be a fan of it.
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: They should be able to be there as a free press.
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: So President Trump, Secretary of War Hegseth, what is really
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: going on? How is it with no troops on the ground,
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: we have 861 wounded and 19 U.S. service members killed
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: in this war? And those answers need to happen. Because
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: as I've said, this war is overshadowing everything going into
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: the midterms. If we got clarity on it, if we
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: got understanding on it, then both sides can really be
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: shown for who they are heading into the midterms. But
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: right now the Democrats do have a leg up on
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: the GOP heading into the midterms. There's no doubt about it.
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: And when you see numbers like this, it adds to
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: the The horrible, horrible run that GOP is on. And they,
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: by the way, aren't limiting his war powers either. They
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: keep shutting down those resolutions and not voting on them.
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: You claim to be transparent. Trump administration. Well, one look
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: of Alex Media wants to know, how are there 861
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: injured soldiers, injured soldiers, in a war with no boots
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: on the ground? Something does not add up. So please
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: tell us for the good of the country so we
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: can rally around this effort to really destroy the Iranian
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: regime and not be wondering what's it all for? How
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: are 861 service members injured? 19 killed. I think I'm
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: really disappointed because they claim to be the most transparent
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: of them all. At least with the Bush era, we
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: knew they were lying to us. And hasn't President Trump
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: criticized that for months and years? Well, the shoe's on
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: your foot now, President Trump. And you gotta be honest
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: about where this is headed, how we got here, and
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: end the damn thing. For the good of the country.
