On The Eve of a Strike against Iran · The Hugh Hewitt Show: Highly Concentrated

0:01
Speaker 1: This is guest host Kurch Schlicker. This is a Hugh
0:03
Speaker 1: Qwitt show. I'm a little more sober today than usual,
0:08
Speaker 1: not that I drink, but we're on the eve of war,
0:12
Speaker 1: and I don't think there's any other conclusion that we
0:14
Speaker 1: can draw. Now. You probably know me as a senior
0:18
Speaker 1: commnist of town Hall, former Los Angeles trial lawyer, but
0:23
Speaker 1: I was also a colonel for almost thirty years, active
0:28
Speaker 1: in reserve, in the infantry and serving in other capacities.
0:35
Speaker 1: And thirty five years ago right now, about three days
0:39
Speaker 1: off February twenty four, nineteen ninety one, I was a
0:44
Speaker 1: young platoon leader in the Persian Gulf. I was co
0:48
Speaker 1: located with seven Core Main. My platoon was supporting it.
0:52
Speaker 1: But I knew what was going to happen that night
0:56
Speaker 1: because I had seen the Desert Storm war plan lying
1:00
Speaker 1: on a table secret. I start looking through it and
1:06
Speaker 1: I knew what was supposed to happen. I knew what
1:08
Speaker 1: my platoon was supposed to do, and I knew what
1:10
Speaker 1: was supposed to happen to the unit I was going
1:12
Speaker 1: to be working with and on the twenty third of February,
1:19
Speaker 1: like those young men and women who are now around Iran.
1:23
Speaker 1: I went to work, I got my platoon, we checked
1:29
Speaker 1: our weapons, checked our equipment, got everything ready. We were
1:32
Speaker 1: ready to roll when called. And then we went to
1:37
Speaker 1: bed and at o dark thirty phone rings answer ted
1:43
Speaker 1: schlecktter first platoon or fourth platoon, and they said, uh
1:52
Speaker 1: the uh the ground war has started. You know what
1:56
Speaker 1: you need to do. And we did it. We got
2:00
Speaker 1: ready and yeah. The interesting thing was we knew what
2:08
Speaker 1: we were going to do, much like those guys in
2:10
Speaker 1: Iran could be dangerous. The job that my unit had
2:16
Speaker 1: involved chemical weapons, which we expected to be used. Thankfully
2:21
Speaker 1: they weren't. I remember, as a lieutenant, I had twenty
2:26
Speaker 1: three folks, ten vehicles, lots of guns, and I remember
2:33
Speaker 1: I personally wasn't afraid for myself. It never occurred to
2:38
Speaker 1: me I could get killed. I was terrified I was
2:41
Speaker 1: going to do something stupid that would get while my
2:43
Speaker 1: men killed. Now just imagine that through the entire leadership
2:47
Speaker 1: chain all through the Middle East, right now, Sergeants, corporals, lieutenants, captains, majors, colonels, generals,
3:02
Speaker 1: and the equivalents in the Navy all thinking I've got
3:08
Speaker 1: to do this right, I've got to get the mission done.
3:10
Speaker 1: I've got to take care of my people because it's
3:12
Speaker 1: going to happen, and we know it's going to happen,
3:15
Speaker 1: because you don't put that kind of firepower in place
3:20
Speaker 1: unless you're gonna use it. Let me give you a
3:26
Speaker 1: cut number one from our president and commander in chief.
3:29
Speaker 2: If they're a.
3:29
Speaker 3: Risk, then rice good turn into a long drawn out box.
3:34
Speaker 1: To the Middle East. I guess you could say, there's
3:36
Speaker 1: always a risk, you know, when there's war. There's a
3:38
Speaker 1: risk in anything, both good and bad.
3:41
Speaker 3: We've had tremendous luck with myself, a solomony albag Daddy.
3:47
Speaker 1: Everything's worked out and then we do the mid Night
3:49
Speaker 1: Hammer and.
3:51
Speaker 4: So many others.
3:51
Speaker 1: Everything's worked out and we want to keep it that way.
3:54
Speaker 1: But we're gonna say, look, it'd be wonderful if the
3:57
Speaker 1: negotiates in good conscious, good faith in guns.
4:02
Speaker 4: But they they are not getting.
4:05
Speaker 1: The more from President Trump again, our commander in chief,
4:12
Speaker 1: the guy who the guy who makes the call cut
4:16
Speaker 1: number two told you.
4:18
Speaker 3: That if you use the military now that there will
4:22
Speaker 3: be regimes being right away. No nobody's you don't know.
4:27
Speaker 4: I mean, nobody knows.
4:28
Speaker 1: That there might be and there might not be It'd
4:33
Speaker 1: be nice if we could do it without, but sometimes
4:36
Speaker 1: you have to do it with. Uh where you looked
4:40
Speaker 1: at what Look, we have the greatest military anywhere in
4:42
Speaker 1: the world. There's nothing both. I'd love not to use
4:45
Speaker 1: it for some gun Japs would. And let's go to
4:48
Speaker 1: cut number three with the President.
4:54
Speaker 5: No, I'm not I'm not.
4:55
Speaker 6: Happy with the fact that they're not willing to of
4:58
Speaker 6: this love we have to have.
5:00
Speaker 1: I'm not drilled with that. We'll see what happens. We
5:02
Speaker 1: don't be later.
5:03
Speaker 3: Oh well, we'll have some addicular books today.
5:07
Speaker 1: But no, I'm not happy with the way they go.
5:10
Speaker 1: And finally, cut number four. This is the money you.
5:16
Speaker 6: Haven't living next show with undidn't.
5:22
Speaker 1: Get up? Well, we haven't made a final decision. We're
5:26
Speaker 1: not exactly happy with the way he's negotiated.
5:30
Speaker 4: They can they.
5:30
Speaker 3: Cannot have no flear weapons when we're not drilled with
5:33
Speaker 3: the way they're negotiating.
5:35
Speaker 1: So we'll see how it all works. Let's get real.
5:38
Speaker 1: This decision was made long ago. You do not move
5:41
Speaker 1: a third of our surface fleet and subsurface fleet in
5:45
Speaker 1: the range of target without the intent to do it.
5:50
Speaker 1: You don't put that kind of aviation firepower from our
5:54
Speaker 1: air force in the region without the intent to use it.
5:58
Speaker 1: And there's other things. There's other pieces on the board
6:01
Speaker 1: moving that we're not aware of, and I'm not going
6:04
Speaker 1: to speculate what they are, but it's going to happen,
6:08
Speaker 1: and it should happen. We've been playing foot seas with
6:12
Speaker 1: these seventh century savages, the Mullas, for nearly fifty years,
6:20
Speaker 1: and it's time to end it. It's time to finish shit.
6:26
Speaker 1: I think Michael Corleoni said it best cut six.
6:32
Speaker 5: Fugenie's dead. So is Philip to tell you, Mo Green
6:42
Speaker 5: Scratchy Cuneo Today, I settled all family business. So don't
6:50
Speaker 5: tell me you're innocent, Colin.
6:53
Speaker 1: What's the family business? Thousands of Americans dead and maimed
6:58
Speaker 1: by these people. The dead at Desert One, where our
7:03
Speaker 1: Delta Force guys went in to rescue the hostages. They
7:06
Speaker 1: took Kobar towers, the hostages in Beirut, various terrorist victims,
7:17
Speaker 1: American soldiers and Marines named and killed by explosively foreign
7:23
Speaker 1: projectiles supplied by the Iranians to their cat's paws in Iraq.
7:31
Speaker 1: They've killed Americans. They've dared to put their paws on Americans,
7:38
Speaker 1: and now they've got to pay. If you're not following
7:45
Speaker 1: Emula's think about it, Cuneoh, well, that guy's in Venezuela.
7:52
Speaker 1: Now he's in a federal prison. And his vice president's
7:56
Speaker 1: going yes, sir, yes, sir, yes, sir. When the Trump
7:59
Speaker 1: administer calls you all are Barzini, somebody's writing a ticket
8:05
Speaker 1: on your limousine and you're coming down the steps thinking
8:08
Speaker 1: you're going to high at him. It ain't going to
8:10
Speaker 1: work out so good. Right now, there's an IRGC Iranian
8:16
Speaker 1: Republican Guard coord General and his phone's ringing and it's
8:22
Speaker 1: a weird number he's never seen before, and he's putting
8:25
Speaker 1: it up to his ear and it's a voice in
8:29
Speaker 1: Farsi saying, Hi, this is the United States. You need
8:34
Speaker 1: to make a decision, and you need to make it
8:36
Speaker 1: right now. Do you want to live or do you
8:38
Speaker 1: want to die? If you want to live, you need
8:44
Speaker 1: to do a brutus. If you want to die, well
8:48
Speaker 1: you can die for Komane. The next guy won't make
8:53
Speaker 1: good choices in America. Pray for our troops. They're going
9:00
Speaker 1: into battle. Their cause is just it's a righteous war
9:05
Speaker 1: and we're gonna win. I'm Colonel Kurt Schlichter and this
9:09
Speaker 1: is the Huqwit Show. We're back on a Hear you
9:18
Speaker 1: It show, and guess it's Kurt Schlickter, retired Nited States
9:22
Speaker 1: Army Colonel. I decided I'd play a Little Hoo's produced
9:25
Speaker 1: cover of eight Miles High because thirty five years ago,
9:28
Speaker 1: right now, I would go out on a burm playing
9:32
Speaker 1: that song in my headphones, watching the flashes up on
9:35
Speaker 1: the horizon towards Iran or I'm sorry Iraq, and uh
9:41
Speaker 1: you know, just have myself a moment. It's gonna happen.
9:49
Speaker 1: We're going into Iran. You can feel it, you can
9:52
Speaker 1: see it. Donald Trump's sending the signals, and there's nobody
9:56
Speaker 1: better to talk about it with than Eli Lake. He's
9:59
Speaker 1: got the Breaking History podcast. I never miss it. He's
10:01
Speaker 1: a Free Press contributor. You can follow him at Eli Lake.
10:04
Speaker 1: Eli Welcome to show. On a very sober day.
10:08
Speaker 7: It is a sober day deep cut from Husker Doo.
10:11
Speaker 2: Impressive, impressive, I would say it's a very impressive call
10:16
Speaker 2: from the eighties all rock genre.
10:19
Speaker 7: So we are not here to talk about the good
10:22
Speaker 7: old days, That's true.
10:24
Speaker 2: We're here to talk about what's going to happen to
10:26
Speaker 2: the Islamic Republic of Iran. And my hope is that
10:30
Speaker 2: the target list includes Iyatola, Ali Khamene and senior regime
10:35
Speaker 2: officials in such a way that if you believe, as
10:41
Speaker 2: Kareem Sagobor has said, it's twenty percent zealots and eighty
10:44
Speaker 2: percent corrupt opportunists. I want the corrupt opportunists to be
10:51
Speaker 2: scurrying rats from a sinking ship because they know that
10:55
Speaker 2: the other true believers have have been taken out by
11:01
Speaker 2: American airpower.
11:03
Speaker 1: I couldn't agree with you more. As I mentioned in
11:06
Speaker 1: the opening segment, I would expect that certain folks who
11:12
Speaker 1: have been previously identified as open to saving their lives
11:17
Speaker 1: are going to get a phone call from an unknown
11:19
Speaker 1: number that presents them with a stark choice and a
11:24
Speaker 1: very short fuse to make that choice. I think we're
11:28
Speaker 1: going to look. You know, sun Sou talks about what
11:32
Speaker 1: you see and what you don't see, and the Iranians
11:35
Speaker 1: are no doubt as most of our media is focusing
11:39
Speaker 1: on what we see, a lot of airplanes, a lot
11:41
Speaker 1: of ships. What don't we see, what's happening in the background,
11:45
Speaker 1: A lot of electronic things, a lot of information operations,
11:50
Speaker 1: a lot of human intelligence information. I don't want to
11:53
Speaker 1: be too specific, but there's a lot going on right now,
11:57
Speaker 1: and I think we have a especially working with our
12:00
Speaker 1: Israeli friends, I think we have a real chance of
12:03
Speaker 1: overthrowing this bloody, murderous theocracy that's killed or maimed thousands
12:09
Speaker 1: of Americans and substituting in something that maybe isn't perfect,
12:13
Speaker 1: but at least doesn't want to murder us all.
12:16
Speaker 7: Yeah.
12:17
Speaker 2: I want to address something though, that is related to
12:19
Speaker 2: all of this, because you've seen the last minute push
12:24
Speaker 2: from the American neutralists, and we all know who I'm
12:29
Speaker 2: talking about. I think the leader is Tucker Carlson. But
12:33
Speaker 2: we've now seen this argument that Trump is under enormous
12:36
Speaker 2: pressure from Benjamin Nenyawho, the Prime Minister of Israel, and
12:40
Speaker 2: other prominent Jewish pro Israel Americans and he may not
12:44
Speaker 2: be able to resist the pressure. The framing of this
12:46
Speaker 2: as if Trump is some sort of weakling who is
12:50
Speaker 2: pushed around by foreign leaders and other prominent figures in
12:55
Speaker 2: the media is absurd, and in my I think it
13:00
Speaker 2: needs to be called out, starting with the right, because
13:05
Speaker 2: as you laid out in that opening segment. There is
13:08
Speaker 2: a long bill that is due from these absolute killers,
13:14
Speaker 2: going back to nineteen seventy nine in the Islamic Revolution
13:17
Speaker 2: when they took our embassy hostage for four hundred and
13:19
Speaker 2: forty four days. Whether it's the marine barracks in outside
13:24
Speaker 2: of Beirut, or Kobar Towers in Saudi Arabia, or the
13:28
Speaker 2: roadside bombs that killed and named thousands in Afghanistan and Iraq,
13:34
Speaker 2: or more recently, the assassination attempts against President Trump and
13:39
Speaker 2: other prominent Iranian Americans in our country.
13:43
Speaker 7: These rogues need to go.
13:46
Speaker 2: All of that context is wiped away because a certain
13:51
Speaker 2: segment of the left and a certain segment of the
13:54
Speaker 2: right want to say it's a war for Israel.
13:56
Speaker 7: Shame on them. I just wanted to get it out there.
13:59
Speaker 1: Well, Eli, you are absolutely right. There is nobody who
14:02
Speaker 1: is going to confuse me with a moderate U. There
14:07
Speaker 1: is nobody who is going to confuse me with someone
14:10
Speaker 1: who does not back up our president and what he
14:13
Speaker 1: stands for. But let me tell you something. I didn't
14:16
Speaker 1: sign up for an America first, that lets a bunch
14:20
Speaker 1: of seventh century set religious fanatics murder Americans. I was
14:26
Speaker 1: talking to a friend of mine the other day, a
14:28
Speaker 1: former Namy seal, and I mentioned Iran and he pauses,
14:32
Speaker 1: and he said, they killed three of my friends.
14:36
Speaker 8: Right.
14:36
Speaker 1: No, no, you don't get to kill Americans. You don't
14:40
Speaker 1: get to look at Americans, you don't get to touch Americans.
14:44
Speaker 1: You do it, you die. The Romans had the right idea,
14:48
Speaker 1: the idea that the notion that we're somehow morally morally
14:54
Speaker 1: obligated to let these barbarians murder Americans, to threaten Americans
14:59
Speaker 1: and our friends. Oh and the idea that Donald Trump's
15:02
Speaker 1: getting pushed around by anybody. Oh you are who's calling?
15:06
Speaker 7: What?
15:07
Speaker 1: What do? No, never gonna happen. The fact that it's
15:10
Speaker 1: going to help Israel, our friend who has stood behind
15:14
Speaker 1: beside us, is called is what we call a fringe benefit. No, no, no,
15:20
Speaker 1: this is a fight between the United States and the
15:24
Speaker 1: bastards in robes who've killed our people. They're gonna pay,
15:30
Speaker 1: and they damn well and it's damn well overdue.
15:34
Speaker 2: And we have an opportunity because we have we've seen,
15:37
Speaker 2: even despite the absolute carnage. The Charnel House crackdown in
15:45
Speaker 2: January against the demonstrators they're still out forty days after
15:51
Speaker 2: the murders to commemorate the fallen martyrs. That is the same.
15:57
Speaker 2: By the way, similar thing happened in nineteen seventy nine.
16:00
Speaker 2: We're talking about the revolution. There are a lot of
16:01
Speaker 2: differences now, but I mean the eye, we've got the
16:05
Speaker 2: Iranian people on our side, and secretly, even though I mean,
16:10
Speaker 2: I have to say it's not been a profile encourriage
16:12
Speaker 2: from the Saudis, the Saudis quietly are saying you got
16:15
Speaker 2: to do something, you got to finish the job. And
16:17
Speaker 2: Trump understands this stuff instinctively at this point, but there
16:21
Speaker 2: it will be an effort. You're already seeing it right now.
16:24
Speaker 2: This is the messaging you're seeing right now, which is it's, uh,
16:28
Speaker 2: you know, we've been coerced or bullied into fighting Israel's war.
16:33
Speaker 2: It's absolutely it's our war. They've killed, they've as you
16:37
Speaker 2: point out, they have killed Americans.
16:39
Speaker 7: They do not get You don't get to pass for that.
16:41
Speaker 2: And I think I want to just make this clear.
16:44
Speaker 2: I think that you know, for the most part, Trump
16:46
Speaker 2: on foreign policy has been very good.
16:48
Speaker 7: I've been supportive.
16:49
Speaker 2: There was a mistake though, in pursuing negotiations because it
16:53
Speaker 2: gave the impression to others that this was a normal country.
16:57
Speaker 2: You could sit down and negotiate with what we were negotia.
17:00
Speaker 2: By the way, we've already I mean, what was the
17:02
Speaker 2: point of the ghosties. And by the way, they proved
17:04
Speaker 2: this right. They're not gonna They're not gonna do anything substantively.
17:06
Speaker 2: But I just wouldn't have given them even that iota
17:10
Speaker 2: of legitimacy because they're The point is is that they
17:13
Speaker 2: got to go.
17:14
Speaker 1: I think, uh, I think Donald Trump was providing cover
17:17
Speaker 1: for himself by saying I tried and I told him.
17:20
Speaker 1: I gave him a chance, and they didn't take it.
17:22
Speaker 1: But you know, these are psych can't help themselves. They
17:26
Speaker 1: can't help me. These are psychotics. The Shaws Savac was
17:30
Speaker 1: nowhere near as brutal and bloody as the IRG.
17:34
Speaker 7: I'm so glad you said that.
17:36
Speaker 1: Yes, they must be stopped. It's time to finish the job.
17:41
Speaker 1: Get it done, mister President. Real patriots, real American pursuers
17:46
Speaker 1: support you and our troops one hundred percent. I'm Colonel
17:50
Speaker 1: Kurt Schlicker. This is the U Hewitt Show.
17:52
Speaker 6: Don't show.
18:03
Speaker 1: By Colonel Kirk Schlicker back guest hosting on The Hugh
18:06
Speaker 1: Hewitt Show. And of course that's the Red Rockers version
18:09
Speaker 1: of Eve of Destruction, and God willing, it's the Eve
18:12
Speaker 1: of destruction for that poisonous theocracy in Tehran. It's time
18:16
Speaker 1: to pay you bastards. Anyway, we're enjoined by Matt Continetti,
18:21
Speaker 1: AI senior fellow Wall Street Journal columnists follow him at
18:25
Speaker 1: Continetti Welcome to the Hugh Hewitt Show.
18:28
Speaker 7: Thanks for having me. Great to be here.
18:30
Speaker 1: Well, I think I made my position on the coming
18:35
Speaker 1: Iatola apocalypse very very clear. What do you all think?
18:41
Speaker 9: Well, I think we're reaching a moment of decision for
18:44
Speaker 9: President Trump. He said that help was on the way
18:47
Speaker 9: in January when the Iranian regime was massacring ats some
18:50
Speaker 9: people who were protesting in the streets, and now the
18:53
Speaker 9: help has arrived. We have two aircraft carrier groups in
18:57
Speaker 9: the region, including the world's largest air craft carrier, the
19:01
Speaker 9: Gerald Ford. We have numerous dozens of fighter aircraft in
19:06
Speaker 9: the region. We have intelligence aircraft with communications beginning to
19:11
Speaker 9: get signals from embassies and other installations in the region
19:16
Speaker 9: that non essential personnel should be leaving. So I think
19:20
Speaker 9: we're in the final stage now of President Trump making
19:24
Speaker 9: good on enforcing the red lines he's drawn against the
19:28
Speaker 9: Iranian regime. He's drawn red lines against uranium enrichmentd He's
19:33
Speaker 9: drawn red lines against their missile program. He draw red
19:37
Speaker 9: lines against their support for terrorist proxies throughout the region.
19:42
Speaker 7: And then he also drew a red.
19:44
Speaker 9: Line against their oppression, against their murder of its own citizenry.
19:50
Speaker 9: And now I think it's about time where he's going
19:54
Speaker 9: to give the order to our forces to enforce those
19:58
Speaker 9: red lines.
19:59
Speaker 1: Well, look, you have a litany of wrongs that these
20:03
Speaker 1: people have inflicted on us, our allies, and the world.
20:07
Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, these people have
20:10
Speaker 1: spent forty five years waging war against us. As Senator
20:15
Speaker 1: Kennedy from Louisiana said when he kind of dropped the
20:19
Speaker 1: aus Shucks Act on the floor and basically said, we
20:22
Speaker 1: are not starting a war. We're going to finish a war.
20:26
Speaker 1: And that's what the United States is going to do,
20:30
Speaker 1: hopefully with the assistance of Israel and the assistance of
20:34
Speaker 1: many Arab allies who are cheering the thought silently covertly,
20:41
Speaker 1: the thought of finally getting rid of this sociopathic, apocalyptic
20:48
Speaker 1: regime and personally I think it's long overdue.
20:53
Speaker 9: I think you make a great point about the allies,
20:56
Speaker 9: you know, just think of it. This week, the Prime
20:59
Speaker 9: Minister of India, Neuendra Modi, leader of the world's largest democracy,
21:04
Speaker 9: visited the State of Israel and gave a speech to
21:08
Speaker 9: the Israeli parliament, the Knesset, where he talked about the
21:11
Speaker 9: strategic partnership between the world's largest democracy and the State
21:16
Speaker 9: of Israel, this tiny sliver of land, about twelve million
21:19
Speaker 9: people there, and how important that relationship was. Who's going
21:24
Speaker 9: to Tehran saying how much they support the Molocracy, is China.
21:30
Speaker 9: They're distancing themselves, is Russia. Putin is distancing himself. So
21:35
Speaker 9: the Americans and the Israelis have allies and partners, and
21:39
Speaker 9: while the Iranians, the Mollahs, the fundamentalists, the terrorists, they
21:44
Speaker 9: are isolated. And I think that speaks volumes about who
21:47
Speaker 9: is in the right in this conflict. And you're also
21:51
Speaker 9: absolutely correct to say that this isn't some attack that
21:56
Speaker 9: comes out of nowhere. This regime, since it came to
21:59
Speaker 9: power in nineteen seventy nine, has been waging war against
22:03
Speaker 9: what it calls the Great Satan, the United States and
22:06
Speaker 9: what it calls the Little Satan, the state of Israel.
22:09
Speaker 9: It has killed our troops in Lebanon, in Iraq, it
22:13
Speaker 9: has killed American citizens and terrorist plots throughout the world.
22:18
Speaker 9: We know that it has conspired to kill President Trump,
22:22
Speaker 9: and it has violated all standards when you talk about
22:27
Speaker 9: its nuclear infrastructure, its support for the proxies. It attacked
22:32
Speaker 9: Israel in the missile attack into twenty twenty four. It
22:36
Speaker 9: was unprovoked. So this conflict has been going on for
22:40
Speaker 9: almost a half century. And when I think what President
22:42
Speaker 9: Trump is going to do if he strikes Iran, is
22:46
Speaker 9: he is going to attack the apparatus of repression, the institutions,
22:51
Speaker 9: the militias, the terrorist IRGC that really do oppress the
22:56
Speaker 9: Iranian people. And then he's going to say, Iranian people,
23:01
Speaker 9: who have no confidence in this illegitimate regime, now it's
23:05
Speaker 9: your turn. We said help was on the way. You
23:08
Speaker 9: have to finish the job. You have to change the
23:11
Speaker 9: form of government there. Maybe it won't be democracy immediately,
23:16
Speaker 9: but it will be some type of government that was
23:18
Speaker 9: actually going to work with America, that's going to obey
23:22
Speaker 9: the red lines and make the world a much safer place.
23:24
Speaker 1: Well, Matt Contenety Ai, senior fellow Wall Street Journal columnist.
23:29
Speaker 1: I'd like to keep you over the break and talk
23:31
Speaker 1: to you a little more about this and the state
23:33
Speaker 1: of the Union. Here on the Hugh Hewitt Show. I'm
23:35
Speaker 1: Gusto's Colonel kirch Schlichter. We're back on a here, huge show.
23:46
Speaker 1: I guess it's kerch schliter and once again joined by
23:49
Speaker 1: Matt Cottenetty AEI, senior fellow Wall Street Journal columnists. You
23:53
Speaker 1: can follow them at continetti spelled just like it sounds
23:57
Speaker 1: on the X machine. Matt, let me let me just
24:01
Speaker 1: go back to the well on Iran for a mimute
24:04
Speaker 1: before we moved to the state of the Union and
24:07
Speaker 1: the resulting controversies. What I'm seeing here is the Domino
24:12
Speaker 1: effect in action. We saw Venezuela fall, Iran may fall.
24:18
Speaker 1: I think it's likely to Cuba is now treading water
24:24
Speaker 1: in a sea of despair. It looks like Donald Trump's
24:27
Speaker 1: taking out the head of the Five Families.
24:31
Speaker 9: Right and Godfather part one. Look, I think what's happening
24:37
Speaker 9: is Donald Trump is pulling out kind of the pillars
24:42
Speaker 9: of China's axis across the world. If you think about
24:49
Speaker 9: the conflict between the United States and China. Not open conflict,
24:53
Speaker 9: but we call it great power competition, but the fight
24:55
Speaker 9: between the United States and China to right the rules
24:59
Speaker 9: of the road for the rest of the world. We
25:02
Speaker 9: have our allies that we've talked about. China has Putin
25:07
Speaker 9: and Russia right as its attack dog, but it also
25:11
Speaker 9: has Iran. It also has Venezuela. Cuba less important since
25:18
Speaker 9: the end of the Cold War. But again in that
25:20
Speaker 9: general alignment of these autocracies, of these bad guys who
25:26
Speaker 9: oppress their own people, who want to use violence against Americans,
25:30
Speaker 9: against our interests in our allies. What has Donald Trump done.
25:35
Speaker 9: He kicked the Chinese out of the Panama Canal. He
25:38
Speaker 9: removed Maduro from power. The same week that a Chinese
25:42
Speaker 9: delegation was negotiating with Maduro, US forces came in and
25:48
Speaker 9: pulled Maduro to where he's now riding in a New
25:50
Speaker 9: York City jail. Now we see Trump turning up the
25:56
Speaker 9: screws on the Mullahs right, which supply China within energy.
26:01
Speaker 9: We have a friendly government in Iran that's working with
26:04
Speaker 9: the United States, that's not massacring its own people. I
26:08
Speaker 9: have a feeling that that supply of energy to China
26:11
Speaker 9: is going to be limited with any new Tehran regime. Right,
26:17
Speaker 9: And we have this situation in Ukraine where Trump is
26:21
Speaker 9: working to get a peaceful negotiation, but because Putin is uninterested,
26:27
Speaker 9: Putin continues to grind his military machine with.
26:31
Speaker 7: These awful casualties.
26:34
Speaker 9: So when I look at what Donald Trump is doing,
26:37
Speaker 9: whether it's geopolitically, whether it's through tariffs and trade, whether
26:42
Speaker 9: it's through promoting our energy resources, whether it's trying to
26:46
Speaker 9: reinvigorate the American economy through growth, whether it's even trying
26:51
Speaker 9: to instill a sense of national patriotism and pride. As
26:54
Speaker 9: we enter the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the
26:57
Speaker 9: Declaration of Independence, I see him building up America's strength
27:03
Speaker 9: over China and removing the pillars of China's power projection
27:09
Speaker 9: around the world. And so far that strategy is succeeding.
27:13
Speaker 1: It certainly is look at, look at look at some
27:15
Speaker 1: of the second order effects of taking out Iran as
27:19
Speaker 1: far as Ukraine. Iran is a major supplier of weapon systems,
27:23
Speaker 1: including drones and technical know how that gets cut off.
27:28
Speaker 1: That that hurts the Russians who are sort of alied
27:33
Speaker 1: but not really allied with China. As for China, it's
27:38
Speaker 1: got to get its gas somewhere, and we're going to
27:41
Speaker 1: have our hands around its throat. If you want to
27:44
Speaker 1: protect Taiwan, you get a stranglehold on the Persian Gulf
27:51
Speaker 1: and Iranian oil because China is not invading anybody if
27:56
Speaker 1: you've cut off their Iranian oil. This is this is
27:59
Speaker 1: not just payback, although I am perfectly happy with it
28:03
Speaker 1: being payback. This is an aggressive strategy to neutralize our
28:08
Speaker 1: enemy's capacity to operate against us and to reorder the world.
28:14
Speaker 1: It is remarkable, and people are so blinded by their
28:18
Speaker 1: Trump hatred they can't see what's actually going down.
28:23
Speaker 9: I think there's a lot to that, especially when you
28:25
Speaker 9: think about how while Trump is making these moves in
28:29
Speaker 9: the Western Hemisphere in the Middle East, he's trying to
28:33
Speaker 9: keep kind of the lid on the conflict in Ukraine,
28:38
Speaker 9: he's actually kind of extending olive branches towards China. He's
28:43
Speaker 9: he's going to China in the spring. He is he
28:46
Speaker 9: downplayed China in the State of the Union. He's saying,
28:50
Speaker 9: we kind of went toe to toe with them last
28:53
Speaker 9: year over trade. But now he's trying to say, look,
28:55
Speaker 9: we can be partners.
28:57
Speaker 7: That's I think. The thing that people don't.
28:59
Speaker 9: Quite understand Aboutald Trump, especially the people who hate him,
29:03
Speaker 9: is he approaches every situation very open handed, open minded.
29:09
Speaker 9: He wants to work, he wants to cut these deals.
29:12
Speaker 9: It's only when the people he's met with resistance or
29:16
Speaker 9: he's met with kind of the unimmovable object, that he
29:21
Speaker 9: begins to ratchet up the pressure. He begins to turn
29:24
Speaker 9: more of the bad cop instead of the good cop.
29:27
Speaker 9: So I see him working out the strategy. It's not easy.
29:31
Speaker 9: Success is not guaranteed, but Iran is one more theater
29:36
Speaker 9: where the United States and our allies not only gained
29:39
Speaker 9: security for ourselves, but also get a leg up over
29:43
Speaker 9: the People's Republic of China.
29:45
Speaker 1: Well, I think those are great points. Matt continetty. I'd
29:47
Speaker 1: love to talk about him more, but then I won't
29:49
Speaker 1: be able to talk about the State of the Union.
29:52
Speaker 1: My contention is that the State of the Union was
29:55
Speaker 1: the beginning of the nationalized portion of the midterm campaign,
30:00
Speaker 1: and that Donald Trump has kind of forced the Democrats
30:04
Speaker 1: into a strategic problem. They have made him the focus
30:10
Speaker 1: of their election. They don't have an agenda. It's all
30:12
Speaker 1: about Donald Trump, and to work that strategy has to
30:17
Speaker 1: have Donald Trump's cooperation. Instead, he walked out and instead
30:21
Speaker 1: of being a lunatic fascist who's literally Hitler, it was
30:25
Speaker 1: orange man Glad. We got about thirty five seconds.
30:30
Speaker 9: What do you think it was a very successful speech.
30:34
Speaker 9: I think he reset the political conversation. He wove these
30:39
Speaker 9: stories of patriotism into the speech in such a kind
30:43
Speaker 9: of dramatic and captivating way that Democrats didn't know what
30:47
Speaker 9: to do.
30:47
Speaker 7: And then in that very.
30:48
Speaker 9: Important moment when he asked Congress to stand up if
30:52
Speaker 9: they believed that the government's primary responsibility was protecting American citizens,
30:57
Speaker 9: not the legal aliens, the Democrats sat down. That's exactly
31:02
Speaker 9: the contrast that's going to play a role in the
31:04
Speaker 9: twenty twenty six campaign and in twenty twenty eight.
31:08
Speaker 1: Well, that's the visual that's going to launch one thousand
31:11
Speaker 1: campaign ads this autumn. I'm George Schliter. That was Matt
31:14
Speaker 1: contin Any Wall Street Journal columnist AI senior fellow stick around.
31:20
Speaker 1: We got a lot more on the Huth. He was
31:22
Speaker 1: very happy to have. My next guest's he's three things
31:25
Speaker 1: in descending orders of importance. He is a former United
31:28
Speaker 1: States Army officer. He is a great friend of me personally,
31:32
Speaker 1: if you personally, and of course of the show. And
31:35
Speaker 1: he was our national security advisor in the first Trump administration.
31:40
Speaker 1: Robert C. O'Brien, welcome, Robert, Colonel slicker and break that
31:47
Speaker 1: bread your tag.
31:50
Speaker 8: Number one town Hall for sure.
31:51
Speaker 1: Oh well, thank you very much. I guess you're watching
31:55
Speaker 1: what's happening over in Iran. Of course, we've got to
31:57
Speaker 1: be very careful not to reveal anything it might not
32:00
Speaker 1: be appropriate to reveal. But what does your gut say
32:04
Speaker 1: about what's going to happen in the next forty eight
32:06
Speaker 1: to seventy two hours, Well.
32:09
Speaker 6: Kurt, if we strike around and it's beginning to look
32:13
Speaker 6: like we're moving heavily in that direction, especially with the
32:17
Speaker 6: evacuation orders.
32:19
Speaker 8: This is one hundred percent of the mullets.
32:21
Speaker 6: President Trunk gave them an off ramp, just like he
32:24
Speaker 6: gave him to their own off ramp. He basically told
32:27
Speaker 6: him all reduced Pompeos ten points you have to agree
32:30
Speaker 6: to from the first term to three points. No ballistic
32:34
Speaker 6: missiles to hit America our allies, no nukes, and stop
32:38
Speaker 6: paying them paying money to the huties and Hesblon Moss
32:41
Speaker 6: to sink our ships in the Red Sea or harass Israel.
32:45
Speaker 6: These are very three, three, very minor things from the
32:49
Speaker 6: Iranians to agree to. But and then he told the consequence.
32:53
Speaker 6: He said, look, it's going to be very bad you
32:55
Speaker 6: do use a Trump Turman. It's very bad for you
32:57
Speaker 6: if you don't agree to this. And they I think
33:00
Speaker 6: they think they're negotiating with Joe Biden or Barack Obama
33:04
Speaker 6: because they didn't accept the offer. And if they don't
33:06
Speaker 6: accept the offer real quickly, they're gonna pay a penalty.
33:11
Speaker 1: Well, I think it's going to be a penalty that
33:13
Speaker 1: is long overdue. We have been you know, Robert C. O'Brien,
33:18
Speaker 1: I keep hearing that we don't want to have. Yeah, wait,
33:21
Speaker 1: we can't have any more forever wars. Hey, it's not
33:23
Speaker 1: a forever war. If you win it, weer one hundred
33:29
Speaker 1: percent right.
33:29
Speaker 8: And I know you made that point in one of
33:31
Speaker 8: your columns. And the other thing is started forever war.
33:34
Speaker 6: If we use our advantages are asymmetric advantages. We use airpower.
33:38
Speaker 6: Half the US Air Force is over in the region
33:40
Speaker 6: right now, and our naval airpower and our naval bombardment power,
33:44
Speaker 6: so we can use standoff weapons, not put boots on
33:47
Speaker 6: the ground. Maybe we have some CIA agents, there's some
33:50
Speaker 6: very exquisite delta or sealed forces there, but this is
33:54
Speaker 6: not gonna be boots on.
33:55
Speaker 8: The ground doing patrols.
33:56
Speaker 6: And you know Tara Teuran asking from I needed to
34:00
Speaker 6: get shot at one of our guys who's got restricted
34:03
Speaker 6: rules of engagement on them. This is going to be
34:04
Speaker 6: a massive bombardment from the air and see the likes
34:07
Speaker 6: of which the world hasn't seen since World War Two.
34:10
Speaker 8: And so you know, our pilots.
34:13
Speaker 6: Are risking, our centers are rescuing, and some of our
34:16
Speaker 6: operators are reskuing.
34:17
Speaker 8: I thank God bless them for defending us.
34:19
Speaker 6: But this is not going to be one hundred thousand
34:21
Speaker 6: people boots on the ground like like you hadn't goulf
34:24
Speaker 6: one or we saw in Afghanist Santa.
34:27
Speaker 1: Iraq, for sure, Robert, do you expect to see Israel
34:32
Speaker 1: intervene publicly? I can only imagine that it's a already
34:37
Speaker 1: going to be very very involved behind the scenes, probably
34:41
Speaker 1: on the ground with his intelligence and its direct action capabilities.
34:46
Speaker 1: But do you expect to see flights of Israeli fighter
34:50
Speaker 1: bombers doing strikes in Iran, or maybe just focusing on
34:57
Speaker 1: some of their allies in Libya or I'm sorry, Lebanon
35:00
Speaker 1: and Syria, maybe even Yemen in support of this. How
35:04
Speaker 1: do you say that playing out?
35:06
Speaker 6: Yeah, Look, there's I've gotten no prime minister name Yahoo
35:10
Speaker 6: very well over the past few years. He's kind of
35:12
Speaker 6: like the Israeli version of Donald Trump. He's not gonna
35:15
Speaker 6: be able to stay out of this. If the blue
35:18
Speaker 6: goes up, Israeli forces are going to be involved now,
35:21
Speaker 6: whether they'll have hit a Ram, which I expect, or
35:24
Speaker 6: or a combination of Iran and the Hutis and and
35:27
Speaker 6: hes Law, these reds will be involved in and they'll
35:31
Speaker 6: play a decisive role. As you mentioned, their intelligence operations
35:35
Speaker 6: on the ground are exquisite.
35:37
Speaker 8: I mean they know where everybody is.
35:39
Speaker 6: And if I was in a radio general right now,
35:41
Speaker 6: I want to get out a dodge to drive out
35:44
Speaker 6: to the desert and dig a hole, because if you're,
35:46
Speaker 6: if you're, if you're, if you're at a headquarters, to
35:49
Speaker 6: find you in bomb youa Do.
35:50
Speaker 1: You think it's outside the realm of possibility that certain
35:55
Speaker 1: people within the political hierarchy and the military structure of
35:58
Speaker 1: Iran have already got in that phone call from a
36:02
Speaker 1: unknown number where somebody in perfect FARSI explains you now
36:07
Speaker 1: have a choice of living or dying. You want to
36:11
Speaker 1: work with.
36:16
Speaker 6: You get a box full of silver, you get a
36:18
Speaker 6: silver bullet, you know, one of the two.
36:20
Speaker 8: My guess is the.
36:21
Speaker 6: Israelis, the Israels are masters at this at psyops and
36:26
Speaker 6: you know, prepping the battlefield US incognitive warfare.
36:29
Speaker 8: So I'm sure they've been involved.
36:30
Speaker 6: I'm sure Massade has been involved, but look, our guys
36:33
Speaker 6: are pretty good at it as well. And then my
36:35
Speaker 6: guess is that John Radcliffe seems as had the teams
36:38
Speaker 6: on the ground with the CIA, maybe others maybe so
36:42
Speaker 6: common Jaysock. So I think the battlefield has been well
36:46
Speaker 6: prepped in and I wouldn't be surprised to see an
36:48
Speaker 6: uprising as well of the citizens of Iran this time.
36:51
Speaker 6: I guess is that they've been they'll have been supplied
36:53
Speaker 6: with guns.
36:54
Speaker 1: Well, Robert, you were like me, you were an army officer.
36:58
Speaker 1: Did you encounter a lot of c W Chief Warrant
37:02
Speaker 1: officer fives? Like Chief Warrant Officer five. Slover the UH
37:07
Speaker 1: recipient of the Medal of Honor at this UH the
37:10
Speaker 1: UH state of the union message during your career.
37:16
Speaker 8: Hey, look I was.
37:17
Speaker 6: Just a JAKE officer, so I wasn't tip of the
37:19
Speaker 6: spear like you.
37:21
Speaker 8: You were a CAV officer.
37:22
Speaker 6: And but look I dealt with Seals and and UH
37:26
Speaker 6: Special Forces guys on a regular basis. I was always
37:29
Speaker 6: super impressed with them. I felt like I was the
37:33
Speaker 6: JV team, said levarsity for sure, but tons of tons
37:38
Speaker 6: of character, brave and But but the thing that people
37:42
Speaker 6: don't understand these have pro athlete liabilities. I mean, they're
37:45
Speaker 6: they're fast, they're strong, they're they're they're smart. I mean
37:49
Speaker 6: they're they're they're true warriors.
37:51
Speaker 1: I I think the iatolas need to understand that there's
37:56
Speaker 1: not just one of these guys from Central Casting out there.
38:00
Speaker 1: There are whole you know, squadrons of these UH Special
38:05
Speaker 1: Warfare operators out there. If I is it correct to
38:09
Speaker 1: say that if you're an eyotola right now, maybe you're
38:13
Speaker 1: re upping your life insurance.
38:17
Speaker 6: Or you're checking the flights to Moscow today. I mean,
38:21
Speaker 6: you want to get out of Dodge. You want to
38:22
Speaker 6: go to Moscow or Beijing, and Havana is probably off
38:26
Speaker 6: of the list. You know, that's good weather in Havanna.
38:28
Speaker 6: But I think Cuba's going to fall here sooner rather
38:30
Speaker 6: than later. So you can't go to Havana or Caracas anymore.
38:33
Speaker 6: So you're probably stuck with with Beijing or Moscow. But
38:37
Speaker 6: I would get the hang out of dollarge if, as
38:40
Speaker 6: I told you, you don't want to meet those Delta
38:43
Speaker 6: the dev grew seal team, six squadrons with night vision
38:46
Speaker 6: goggles in the middle of night in your bedroom.
38:48
Speaker 8: That's not a good That's not a good interview to have.
38:51
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's not not the way you want to start
38:53
Speaker 1: your day. You mentioned Cuba, uh in Venezuela, and Venezuela
38:57
Speaker 1: is out of the picture. Cuba is going to be
38:59
Speaker 1: out of the pick. Iran is going to be out
39:01
Speaker 1: of the picture. It's like Donald Trump's taking out the
39:03
Speaker 1: heads of the Five Families. You were at the pinnacle
39:08
Speaker 1: of American strategy. I was just an enamateur. I just
39:10
Speaker 1: went to the War College. But what I see is
39:13
Speaker 1: the United States completely resetting the strategic table, because if
39:19
Speaker 1: we get Iran, then we get control of Iran, we
39:23
Speaker 1: get control of its oil, which means the Chinese, who
39:26
Speaker 1: desperately need the oil suddenly find themselves constrained simply because
39:32
Speaker 1: we can turn off the spigot any time, which makes
39:35
Speaker 1: Taiwan essentially safe. Am I analyzing this correctly?
39:41
Speaker 6: Well, Donald Trumps is changing the whole geo political chessboard,
39:45
Speaker 6: so to speak. I mean, he's taking the bad guys
39:47
Speaker 6: off the table. We've already taken Venezuela off the table.
39:50
Speaker 6: We're gonna take Cuba off the table. And if we
39:52
Speaker 6: take a Ran off the table, that is a really
39:53
Speaker 6: big deal.
39:54
Speaker 8: I had a China.
39:55
Speaker 6: Expert, probably one of the smartest guys on China that
39:57
Speaker 6: I know, would tell me if Orangos is really a
40:00
Speaker 6: problem for China, China and russ we can find themselves
40:04
Speaker 6: with no no allies other than each other. And so
40:09
Speaker 6: Donald Trumps playing chess and the mainstream media and then
40:13
Speaker 6: people have just criticized them on Greenland, criticized them on Venezuela.

40:41
Speaker 3: brings the new Middle East into focus.
40:44
Speaker 1: Could the fate of the world of humanity itself be
40:47
Speaker 1: somehow tied to this place?
40:49
Speaker 8: But long last we have peace in the Middle East.
40:52

41:18
Speaker 1: And they couldn't deserve it more. Hey, what you deserve
41:22
Speaker 1: is a little verse. Tarzana Joe joins us. Tarzana Joe,
41:26
Speaker 1: what do you've got for us today?
41:28
Speaker 3: Hey, colonel, I'm sorry I don't have an invasion poem.
41:31
Speaker 3: I'm HARKing back to hockey because that's important. I imagine
41:34
Speaker 3: you were an athlete as a youngster.
41:37
Speaker 4: I was not.
41:38
Speaker 3: I was the guy picked last, except in hockey, where
41:42
Speaker 3: they said you're the goalie and who knew I had
41:45
Speaker 3: a sports talent. I could get hit with a puck,
41:49
Speaker 3: and I played ice hockey goalie till I was sixty two.
41:53
Speaker 3: And I love the game, and I love what happened
41:55
Speaker 3: last week, except I hate what happened this week. When
41:59
Speaker 3: I was just a little lad and the world had
42:01
Speaker 3: some decorum, I dreamed of playing hockey in the old
42:05
Speaker 3: Montreal Forum and with the great Roget Ducet. I'd sing
42:10
Speaker 3: their song by heart, except i'd kind of mumble when
42:13
Speaker 3: I reached that Frenchy part. I'd steer down eve on
42:17
Speaker 3: Cornwya and stone on Ri Richard and tell all.
42:21
Speaker 8: The reporters gee.
42:22
Speaker 7: I thought that would be hard.
42:23
Speaker 3: And even in my rookie year, when I was just
42:26
Speaker 3: up up, I'd lead the New York Rangers and we'd
42:29
Speaker 3: hoist the Stanley Cup. Sport is meant for discipline, and
42:34
Speaker 3: sport has meant for fun, a seeming contradiction, but somehow
42:38
Speaker 3: it gets done. Sport has meant for struggle, and sport
42:41
Speaker 3: has meant for dreams.
42:43
Speaker 8: That's why it's so damn beautiful. As crazy as that seems, then.
42:47
Speaker 3: Why do some among us the spiritually blind seek out microaggressions?
42:53
Speaker 3: You'd need microscopes to find to analyze the phrasing, to
42:57
Speaker 3: find the slightest slight.
42:59
Speaker 8: Go get another hobby. That just isn't right.
43:03
Speaker 3: They want to grab our lemons and squeeze out all
43:06
Speaker 3: the fun. But you can't take joy from hockey because
43:10
Speaker 3: that just can't be done. That's oh No Canada by
43:17
Speaker 3: Tarzana Joe.
43:17
Speaker 1: Tarzana Joe, where can people find you to write some
