'SURPRISE ATTACK' Expert issues BOLD warning on next Iran move · THE DAILY BRIEF

• 0:01
  Speaker 1: They will not give up the straits of a mouse
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: unless we take it back by force. No amount of
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: economic pressure on them, I think will bend them to
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: do that. They're going to get more violent because as
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: we get closer to the midterms, they want to create
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: a volatile situation that demonstrates that the administration is not
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: managing the war properly, so that that will impact them
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: in the midterm elections.
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: All right, General Jack Keen last hour talking to us
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: about a strategic pivot in the conflict with Iran. President
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: Trump now shifting to a more economic pressure message, making
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: the regime feel the pain where it really hurts. The
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: Commander in chief telling Axios the US is quote low
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: keying it, Rebecca Heinrix Hudson, is it his senior fellow, Rebecca,
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: good day to you. I know you saw the interview.
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: In the comments. What do you make of them right now?
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: Well, I think that when President Trump says that he's
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: low keying it, we should not interpret that to mean that,
• 0:57
  Speaker 3: because we're going to be focusing on the econom pressure
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: against Iran, that the military option is no longer either
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: available or something that the President is actually considering. To me,
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: what this means is. Remember the last time we really
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: thought that President Trump was reconsidering a large scale military
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: operation against Iran. Again, that message was leaked and then
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: the Golf States, especially the Saudis and the Qataris, pressured
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: President Trump to stand down and try to negotiate again.
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: I think now, if the President does decide to reinitiate
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: military activity, it's going to be quiet, Bill, and we
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: are not going to hear any indication of that. It's
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: going to be a surprise attack. So right now we're
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: going to be focusing on squeezing the Iran regime while
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: quietly getting oil through the Oman cord or in the
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: straight upartment.
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: A couple things here, go ahead and play. Here's the
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: Vice President JD Vance talking about that strategy. Go ahead,
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: here's Jadvans from Saturday with Kaylee.
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: We're just going to keep on applying the pressure that
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: we can apply and getting as much oil and gas
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: out of the Middle East so that Americans can enjoy
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: lower gas, aid and energy prices.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: So that's the delicate dance. Okay.
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: So that's shady Vance. And when we ask the American
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: people a couple of weeks ago your support military action
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: against Iran, we found about fifty six percent oppose, forty
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: three percent support. We West Texas crew now is eighty
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: bucks that have been around seventy five dollars a barrow.
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: Go ahead and show the pole guys forty three percent
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: support according to our polling back in mid July. Rebecca,
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: if oil is like mid seventies, is that acceptable for
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: the time being?
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: I think it is for the time being. And if
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: you if you notice, I mean I keep checking in
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: to see how much oil is actually getting through the strait,
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: And according to my sources, there's still about eight billion
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: barrels getting through a night through the Strait of Hormuz,
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: and that's because of the United States. Is Navy still
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: guiding those ships, So having US military forces there is
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: essentral And then we're also getting oil over through the
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: land routes about five billion barrels. We're still about thirteen
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: billion barrels, which is far short of the twenty billion
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: barrels a day pre war. But that's enough for Americans
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: to feel pretty comfortable. But again, Bill, if you look
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: at Trump, President Trump's support for the war among his base,
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: it was highest when the United States was actually on
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: the front foot and was making great gains militarily alongside
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: the Israelis. Where support for it began to plummet was
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: when you saw this ceasefire negotiations and the Iranians seeming
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: to feel very confident and very audacious making demands on
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: the United States. And that's where Americans, I think, are
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: feeling pretty uncomfortable.
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: Okay, you have to build pipelines faster, get elon there,
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: and get Musk over there with a boring company and
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: get into that Sam Benjaminett and Yahoo. He rejected this
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: fifteen point piece plan. Play the sound by quick answer
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: on the other side of this watch.
• 3:52
  Speaker 4: Israel doesign accept the fifteen point document. The idea will
• 3:55
  Speaker 4: not carry out any withdrawal until Hamas is disarmed. And
• 3:57
  Speaker 4: when I say the disarmy of Hamas, it means heavy weaponry,
• 4:00
  Speaker 4: later weaponry, all weaponry. And we are talking about genuine disarmament,
• 4:04
  Speaker 4: not fictitious disarmament.
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: Okay, the Israelis have a point of view on this,
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: all right. That means the Gaza situation is not solved.
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: How complicated could that be?
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: Well, Look, the Israelis are right, and this is not
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: specific to Benjamin Netanyahu. There is no support in Israel
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: at all to permit anything like October seventh to happen again,
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: and that means Hamas has to be completely removed. They're
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: not going to do this sequentially. The problem in Gaza
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: is the radicalization of Hamas, and unless there's deradicalization in
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: the entire removal of these tunnels and Hamas, Israel is
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: simply not going to leave the region.
• 4:37
