Transcript
- 0:00America, we are back, baby. I told you guys we'd be back
- 0:02tonight for a special episode. We have one topic and one topic
- 0:06only. We're going to talk about
- 0:08everything that has happened from last night to right now
- 0:10between Israel and Iran. So last night Israel decided to
- 0:16take pre emptive strikes against Iran, targeting Iran's nuclear
- 0:20facilities, targeting top military leaders, targeting
- 0:24their scientists as well. They were doing this, like I
- 0:27said, as a pre emptive strike to save themselves is what they
- 0:31were saying. This is something that the
- 0:33United States and Donald Trump and Rubio have come out in
- 0:37support of. They have said that it was a
- 0:39unilateral decision by Israel, that they acted alone, that the
- 0:44United States had no knowledge that this was going to happen,
- 0:47that they trust Israel's intelligence and they trust
- 0:50Israel's knowledge on the subject.
- 0:53I have not seen the intelligence or knowledge yet.
- 0:57I don't want it to be another WMD scenario.
- 1:00I don't want, I don't want U.S. troops to enter this war.
- 1:04If Israel and Iran want to get in a war, I don't encourage it,
- 1:09but that's between them. I don't want the US to be
- 1:11involved in this. And if the US financing this is
- 1:15going to lead to US involvement through military force
- 1:18eventually because Iran would target a military base and the
- 1:21US would have to strike back, I'm heavily against that.
- 1:24I don't want this to be a weapons of mass destruction
- 1:27scenario. I don't want us to go invade
- 1:29Iran in this long plan that Israel has had to get rid of
- 1:35Iran. I think Israel is one of our
- 1:39great allies and I love that we have Israel as an ally, but I
- 1:43don't think that this is our fight right now.
- 1:47It has been extremely fluid, the situation between the two
- 1:51countries. And I'll get into that right
- 1:54here. I want to show a video of all
- 1:57the strikes. And as I show you guys the
- 2:00video, I'm going to pretty much just talk over it and let you
- 2:04guys know the timeline of how this all happened, what happened
- 2:08and what's to come after. Here we go.
- 2:12We'll go right into it. So these are the videos of the
- 2:15attack that Israel did yesterday on Iran.
- 2:19This is videos from someone's balcony, just an aftermath video
- 2:23of the first pre emptive strike. These are videos of some of the
- 2:27strikes actually happening and reactions happening from the
- 2:31strike. I mean it's scary to see like no
- 2:35matter what side anyone's on politically or anything, stuff
- 2:40like this is terrible to see and scary to see.
- 2:42These are the other strikes in Iran still the pre emptive of
- 2:46strikes. These are all from last night.
- 2:48These are the initial strikes. It is like I said, no matter
- 2:55what side you're on, it is just sad to see.
- 2:58This was the statement from Marco Rubio tonight.
- 3:01Israel took unilateral action against Iran.
- 3:04We are not involved in strikes against Iran and our top
- 3:06priority is protecting American forces in the region.
- 3:09Israel advised us that they believe this action was
- 3:12necessary for its self-defense. Trump and the administration
- 3:15have taken all necessary steps to protect our forces and remain
- 3:18in close contact with our regional partners.
- 3:20Let me be clear, Iran should not target US interests or
- 3:24personnel. And that has not happened so
- 3:26far. I love that they put that
- 3:27statement out and Trump put a statement out.
- 3:29Now, these right here, these are the first videos that of the
- 3:34strikes from Iran to Israel. So these are in Tel Aviv, if I
- 3:39have that correct. But these are the videos, you
- 3:43can kind of see the Iron Dome deflecting some of the missiles.
- 3:47They had hypersonic missiles coming in.
- 3:50They had ballistic missiles coming in on both sides.
- 3:53This is a heavily armed conflict.
- 3:56This is something that's going to continue to go on for a few
- 3:58days. I even debated if I should just
- 4:01live stream and just keep going on about this because it's
- 4:03happening by the minute. Like as I'm filming this right
- 4:06now, there are more strikes happening, whether they're in
- 4:09Iran or Israel, I'm not sure. This is the clip from Fox.
- 4:12I'm going to stop talking for a SEC.
- 4:13The last. Time this happened, there was a
- 4:16coordinated defense between Israel, the United States and
- 4:19other countries including Jordan.
- 4:21The intercept these with aircraft as well.
- 4:24Trey, I mean, it's unbelievable to see what we're seeing going
- 4:27on about the in the skies above Tel Aviv right now.
- 4:31Yeah, John, Sandra, you saw those live images.
- 4:35Israel is under a massive ballistic missile barrage.
- 4:39I've reported here for nearly seven years and never seen such
- 4:43an attack against an Israeli city.
- 4:45The amount of air defense that you saw going off there is.
- 4:49It's unprecedented, it appears. It's crazy to see that.
- 4:54I mean, you see the the defense system shooting down most of
- 4:59them, but then you do seize missiles still landing.
- 5:02Like it's like I said, no matter where you fall on any conflict,
- 5:08it's it's very incredibly hard to watch videos like this when
- 5:12you know, people are getting harmed and possibly children.
- 5:16So when Iran did this target right here on Israel, they
- 5:22actually targeted civilian areas, civilian heavy areas.
- 5:26So then Israel back in response started targeting Iran, civilian
- 5:32heavy areas. Those were the photos, and these
- 5:34are the photos from Israel after the first initial response
- 5:38attacks from Iran. Iran was extremely upset.
- 5:42Like I said, they targeted their nuclear facilities, their
- 5:44scientists, uranium and military officials as well, high-ranking
- 5:50military officials all around the country.
- 5:52This is the destruction all around Tel Aviv and Israel after
- 5:56the first attacks. And then this right here is, if
- 6:01I'm correct, this is in Iran and these are more attacks Israel
- 6:08was sending in response to those attacks we just saw there.
- 6:12And this is Iran's air air defense system kind of taking
- 6:17care of some of those missiles in the same way we saw Israel's
- 6:20doing that. A lot of countries have these
- 6:22air defense systems. Trump is talking about doing one
- 6:25in America. I think they're extremely
- 6:28necessary. You see, they're extremely
- 6:29effective at stopping these long range ballistic and hypersonic
- 6:33missiles. But there are ones that did get
- 6:37through. You know, that first strike in
- 6:38Tel Aviv, they had I think it was 9 missiles did end up
- 6:41getting through. They sent hundreds, but nine did
- 6:44get through. And that's still extremely, you
- 6:47know, hurtful to the entire country in this attack right
- 6:51here. They ended up striking 3
- 6:54different times on Iranian air bases.
- 6:58I think they also targeted in civilian areas too.
- 7:00And then after that, again, what do you think happened?
- 7:04Iran then struck back Israel. So after this attack right here,
- 7:10then Iran decides, OK, we're going to really go for the
- 7:15people of Israel. So they target 2 areas.
- 7:18They target the kind of near the Gaza Strip a little bit and they
- 7:23target Jerusalem as well. So they target areas that they
- 7:27know that there are going to be civilians, that there will be
- 7:30casualties. This is a this is a conflict
- 7:34that's, like I said, escalating by the minute.
- 7:37You have military leaders on both sides who are getting
- 7:40injured. I think that Israel would sweep
- 7:45Iran in a war if different being honest.
- 7:48These are so these are the videos of the missiles being
- 7:51sent from Iran to Israel and these are the videos you can see
- 7:57those same missiles then being received in Israel.
- 8:00It's like crazy to see both angles like that.
- 8:04Never in almost like I don't know, we we have some conflicts
- 8:10where we have stuff like this, but like imagine if in World War
- 8:142 they had videos on both sides like this and we could go back.
- 8:17You can see the where one left and it's received on the other
- 8:21end. It's pretty crazy.
- 8:23That video right there is just so insane to know that's what's
- 8:27happening in these countries right now.
- 8:30I really hope that they're able to, I don't know, I hope they're
- 8:35able to find some sort of a resolution or I hope we're able
- 8:39to get more words out of Trump soon.
- 8:42We haven't heard much from Donald Trump.
- 8:43I hope Donald Trump really speaks out against sending U.S.
- 8:48troops in, really does everything he can to avoid that.
- 8:51I know a lot of it is dependent on whether Iran decides to
- 8:55strike US embassies, US bases, U.S. military forces in any way.
- 9:00I don't think they will because of the leader leadership of
- 9:03Donald Trump. But it is possible.
- 9:05And at that possibility, I really want Donald Trump to do
- 9:08everything he can to try and either de escalate the situation
- 9:11or do everything you can to keep U.S. troops out of Iran.
- 9:16I'm so against U.S. soldiers being sent to Iran to fight
- 9:19other people's wars. I'm done funding wars around the
- 9:22world that aren't ours. I'm done fighting wars around
- 9:25the world that aren't ours. We shouldn't have been in
- 9:27Vietnam really, since World War 2.
- 9:29There's not a lot of valid wars that the United States have
- 9:32actually been in. I'm against war for the most
- 9:35part. I understand war is an economy
- 9:37and war sometimes is necessary, but in this instance for the
- 9:42United States, it does not feel necessary and does not seem
- 9:45necessary. And I would hate for our
- 9:47brothers and sons to go over there and lose their lives
- 9:51fighting for another country. I don't think that United States
- 9:57soldiers and United States Marines, United States Air
- 10:00Force, United States Navy, any branch of the military, I don't
- 10:05think any of them should have to put their life on the line for
- 10:08Israel, for any other country around the world right now
- 10:11besides America. America is the land of the free
- 10:14because of the brave. And while yes, we are the
- 10:17leaders of the free world, not every war is ours to deal with.
- 10:21I'm James Pascalades this has been special edition episode of
- 10:25America unfiltered episode 69. I will keep you guys updated
- 10:29through the weekend with any updates about the ongoing
- 10:32conflict. Like I said this is the very
- 10:34fluid situation by the minute we have missiles flying left and
- 10:38right. I I really hope that this is
- 10:41able to de escalate. I'm very anti war.
- 10:43I want people to live. I don't want people to die,
- 10:46especially children. Thank you guys.
- 10:49Have a blessed weekend and I'll see you guys Monday.
