2:07What is that's a British? It means don't cry because when British people suppress their emotions so much that their bodies start to quiver in like two hours in advance of expressing an emotion. So it's like, no, clamp down on that shit. Damn, that's so crazy. Stiff upper lip this whole time is meant don't cry in public. These are adults. How did they control a third of the world? Do you ever wonder that about the British? How did they ever figure that out? I don't know man. I just don't get it. That's how they won Dunkirk. Did they win Dunkirk? I think they escaped Dunkirk. Look at that. They were good at boats. Yeah. They were good at boats. It's true. They're like, oh, we might about, yeah. So we can cry. But no one can tell because of the ocean. Please speaking of oceans, it's crazy that they named an entire part of their military after a color, after navy blue, you know. That's so true. Isn't that wild?

And I apologize for a guest for the length of this. But I just fucking love women's month so much. I just fucking love women so much, dude. And I got so many great women in my collection and I just couldn't stop once I started pulling

7:21them off the shelf. You know what I'm saying? I got shelves full of women. Shelves. So here's Sisa, who I really should have included on the abbreviations, Span, a few episodes ago. I guess it is. S-S-Z-A. S-E-A and the album is called SOS. Great album, look at that. Santigold, who I first heard on a Beastie Boy song, Potsos Committee Part 2, but she's fantastic, debut album. Joanna Newsom, one of these artists that I never gave the time of day back in the day because she was part of that whole Tweet Alt Folk movement that I made. I had prejudices about. But my god, is this a brilliant album? This is, wait, is that one the Milk Guide Mender? Oh, you know what? I don't think I've ever listened to that one. It's the only one I've missed. I listened to Wise and I listened to Have One On Me. But I don't know that one. This might be her first. I think this might be her original, her debut. Anyway, it's extraordinary. She's playing the harp. She's singing in that voice of hers that is inimitable.

8:23She is the absolute best. You know, I almost wish you had ended with her so I could spend five minutes just saying how much I love her and how she is probably my favorite folk artist who's out now. I suppose. I've listened to Have One On Me so many times that, you know, when you love an artist so much that you, that you're just like, you get mad when you find out that they're married to Andy Sandberg? You know that sort of thing? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Mary Goetier is a Nashville songwriter and singer, but she's written songs for a lot of country singers. They've covered her stuff and this is her album, Mercy Now, which is beautiful. It's a really beautiful album about forgiveness, mercy, addiction. It's really great. I got to meet her a few years ago at the Vancouver Folk Festival. Really recommend. This woman, Cecil McClurens-Salvant is a jazz singer and this is an amazing album. Called, what the fuck is it called?

9:26I don't know. Melu, Melu's scene or something? Like, look it up. That's what it looks like. Beautiful. I think it's like an adaptation of some European folktale. Anyway, she's amazing. Betty Davis. Betty Davis. They say I'm different. Not Betty with an E, Betty with a Y. Oh, okay. You can see that these Betty Davis' eyes are not quite what Kim Karnes was singing about. Yes, yes, yes, yes, different. She's awesome. Very, very idiosyncratic jazz, not jazz, funk soul artists from the 70s. This is a beautiful live theater piece by two amazing French language singers. One, Pauline Gillian from Quebec, one, and Sylvester from France. And this is called Gemma Quasi, or Crossed Twins. I think they're both Gemini's. Michel Nadeaucello, piece beyond passion. Great bass player and singer. Sheila E, a protégé of Prince, the glamorous life. Hell yeah. Moni Love, amazing rapper from the Native Tongues Collective,

10:26down to Earth. L.A. represent with the Lady of Rage. That's say, roughness. And a song that's not on that album, but a single Afro Puffs. She's, you know, she was on the Chronic, Dr. Dre. That's right. Yeah, let me, let me, let me cap it after these next two. Katie Webster, Swamp Boogie Queen, incredible Boogie piano player, blues singer. Love this album. And finally, finally, umu sangate from Mali. This is her album, Timbuktu, the queen of Mali and music. Amazing singer. I think Beyonce either sampled her or had her on on the like, uh, what's that called? Black is beautiful album that the one that she did. That's not called Black is beautiful, but the, you know, the one I mean, like the lighting adaptation. Oh, oh, that one. Yeah, the Lion King album. Yeah. Okay. Anyways, there you go. That's it. Thanks for sitting. Thanks for indulging me. Of course, happy international

11:27women's month, folks. So that's what's spinning in the Mattay Household. Uh, before we go on, um, you have one more thing left. Oh, well, one of my favorite women, uh, and one of our favorite women on this podcast, uh, posted a lovely story that I'm going to read as best I can in her voice. Um, this, yeah, this is a story. You know, it's so nice when air travel, which can be alienating and upsetting. It turns out to be heartwarming and an opportunity for, for togetherness. So this is Eve Barlow telling, uh, obviously true story that definitely happened. I'm on a flight and my air host, Hans Meaglass of Champagne, sees Mamagin David and beneath his breath, Whisperus Lechheim. He asks me if I want a splash of juice in my glass. I said, just a side of Amis Freilchai, or Chai, maybe she said, maybe she met that as a pun. I, uh, it's gotta be because otherwise,

12:28what the fuck is any of that? And also, wouldn't it be the opposite? You're drinking juice and someone offers you a splash of Champagne? Yeah, I like, I'm just sitting casually drinking Champagne and someone's like, they, they offered to upgrade needed juice. Yeah, I love. Do you need, do you need a chaser for that Champagne, you weakling? You look like you need some vitamins. You know, she posted, I'm going to the war with this fucking shitting grin on her face. Oh, yeah, this is probably the flight. Yeah. Do you want some juice in your drink? Want some orange juice and cranberry juice? He smiles. Oh, yeah, he smiles. I say, are you a member of the tribe? He says, I just found out, yes, in my bloodline. I ask, where are you from? He says, I am from Venezuela. I say, holy shit. So how are you feeling right now? Good. He says, I'd love to say more.

13:28I will just say, I feel more hope than ever for the world. Toadarrabah for all that you do. Wait, wait, wait, wait. Stop there. Stop there. We are now meant to... Listen, none of this sounds real, but you know what's extra impossible? Someone going up to Eve Barlow and knowing what she do. No one has ever seen Eve Barlow on the streets and been like, oh yeah, you and not had that be like, oh yeah, you're that awful person who XYZ, that is amazing. Yeah, now here's the follow-up. On the same flight, another flight attendant is trying to adhere to Ramadan and we had a 30-minute conversation as a Jewish woman, a Jewish woman and a Muslim woman about how Western white leftists know absolute

14:29jock shot about the Middle East. So fuck you and shut up. I love it. I love it, dude. Preemptively get in there with like, and for all of you Western white leftists who are about to make fun of me for this, we actually also talked about you and how you're wrong. Oh God bless. God bless Eve Barlow. She is just an endless source of entertainment. Just living absolutely in a fantasy land from day one. Yeah. Wow. I'm going to start calling her bar high. I mean, the bar is so high now for her. It's a it's a high bar. I mean, no one no one can do what she do. Mostly face no one can take her for what she do. No one knows what she do. Now to move on to people who we do know what they do and we like what they do, we have a wonderful guest that I'm very excited to bring back a returning bad has bar a champion stand up comedian ladies and gentlemen and everyone

15:32else welcome back to the show Andrea Moore. Hey, you nailed it. Hi, Andrea. Yeah, I did the name right here. Everyone was worried because you would think it would be her last name that he wouldn't know how to pronounce, but it was actually her first name that he was struggling with. Well, I was saying Andrea or Andrea. Yeah. And I asked which one was right. And then they said it was Andrea. And I was I couldn't get it. I couldn't get it right because I'm not good at pronouncing things for some reason. I just it's never been my strong suit, but that's neither here nor there. How are you doing? Andrea Moore. I'm good. And you know, you can you can just call me by my first name or my last name. You don't have to do both, but yeah, it doesn't feel a little bit like a power play to be like, Matt, is that your little name? Matt, is that how am I pronouncing that right? Well, when you say it like that, then it does sound like a little bit

16:32like it's a little name, but it's a big name actually. And a lot of people thank me for what I do. Well, it's short for Matt Tessiahu. That's right. That's right. Yeah, it's short for King without the crown. Speaking of rostrant. Speaking of rostrant. Yeah, you know, it's crazy is that that was just something that happened. At one point, we had a acidic Jewish reggae star and everyone just went, fine, Obama's president. I think this is cool. Yeah, this is allowed, I guess. There was a lot more tolerance back then. There was. There was. There was a time when America was great. And now it's fire upon white reggae boys. I know. Yeah, no, it's even greater. Yeah. Yeah. And now finally, America is healing. We've becoming great again. Since the last time you were on this podcast, I don't know what's changed if everything has

17:33gotten worse. But I wanted to ask you how have you been? How has been the last few months since you've been here? How do you like the news so far? You know, I'm all about Iranian liberation. So I'm loving the news. Yeah, I've been, I've been good, you know, betting markets are looking great. So that's really all I care about. You're getting that calcium money. You're getting that polymaribe on the spread like like Lindsey Lindsey Graham, you know, getting his getting his wish and the oil fields being bombed. Yeah. Yeah, I'm in a group chat with Nancy Pelosi and I have to mute it. It's just always blowing up. It's always blowing up when we're blowing things up. And so I just have to be like, I'm going to check it when I'm ready to check notifications, rather than having them kind of like in and date. Because otherwise, I'm just like, Oh, hey, I have to, you know, I mean, that's a day. It's addicted. If you're going to be a good

18:36better, you got to get your sleep. And if you're up all night following Nancy's stock tips, I've told this story on the podcast, but on the New York City subway, there is a, an ad that I regularly see for some kind of like, like, investing app or something like that to give you good advice. And it's like invest like the pros. And there is Warren Buffett's stock profile. And Elon Musk's stock profile. And Nancy Pelosi's stock profile. And I have to think that's a really funny troll. That is incredible. I like an inside. They might as well say trade like an insider. Yeah, right. Trade like a criminal. That is, that is pretty amazing. I love that. I, you know, I think we're all very excited about what the market will soon be doing. Not right now, though. For some reason, which is totally unexplainable, the stock market has crashed. Freedom isn't free. Freedom is

19:38not free. No, it certainly isn't. And, you know, you got to spend money to make money. I think that's a old adage that we all can certainly understand. And you got to kill people to kill economies. That's right. That's right. And I mean, can't hurt people hurt people. That's right. And yes, yeah, hurt people hurt people. And bomb people. Bomb people. That's right. Bomb people. That's what we are. We are a bomb ass country. We're bomb ass country. And we bomb ass asses. Right. Oh, God. Right now, Iran, you know, is, is in the news for, you know, being they were me to they were me to 12 different golf states have finally come out and said all of the different inappropriate behaviors that they have been doing for the past 40 plus years. No, the right now, Iran, of course, is being bombed by Israel and being bombed by the United States. And we're going

20:40to be talking a lot about that today because the Hezbollah around that has been so so uniquely terrible that it's almost, it's almost like they just don't want this show to ever end. They've decided that they were like, no, no, no, no, we, we can't let these guys run out of material. So we're going to have to keep supplementing it with more and more insane shit. But I want to start out with something that's not Hezbollah. I want to start out with something that is just old-fashioned American raw raw. Let's go to war. I want to talk about Lindsey Graham. Lindsey Graham, as you all know, has been pushing for this particular war with Iran for a long, long time. Lindsey Graham earlier before we did this was going back and forth admittedly, he is admitted to going to Israel in order to meet with the government there to find out exactly

21:45the right things to say. He was telling them how to convince Trump to go to war. And he did finally get his wish. And he has never been more excited. He is not trying to explain anything. His support for this war is not just full-throated. It is deep-throated. It's deep-throated, yeah. And I want to play this clip of him on Fox News recently talking about Iran and what is to come. And we're going to win. Israel and the United States, you just wait to see what comes in the next two weeks. The next two weeks, meaning what? We're going to blow the hell out of these people. This regime is in a death row now. It is going to be on its knees. It's going to fall. And when it falls, we're going to have peace like another time. We're going to have prosperity unlike anyone could ever imagine. Peace brings prosperity. You can't do it by talking the Democrats,

22:49criticize its operation. They didn't do a damn thing. These men and women in the military should make us all proud. So, I mean, we're going to achieve glory through some kind of whole. Thank you, producer Adam. Thank you. There's nothing I love more about Lady Graham than his complete lack of awareness as to how everything he says sounds like a gay sexy-doendo. He's going to blow the hell out of these people. We're going to get them on their knees. That's right. I'm going to wrap the sweet lips of freedom around the hard shaft of tyrannies, suck out all the Islam. Everything about him is just he's so gay. And I love all people, all shapes and sizes and all, you know, sexual orientations. But the way that he talks about around is just oh, may their muscles bust all over my face a few times. And trust me, I could take

23:56some blasts. I could take some blasts on the chin and keep on grinning, you know what I mean. But if there's one thing I know how to do, it's take blows and give them back, you know what I'm talking about. You know, that's right. I'm a cluster ejaculator. I'll swallow what you got and give you some more. All right. I'll make sure you're absolutely depleted. All of your stock piles. I'll make sure you are. I'll get dry. I'll get up all in your anion. How you doing over there, Adria? You enjoying this line of riffing? Um, I guess I'm just like thinking about what it entails and I'm having a hard time laughing about it. It's like so horrific. I like not not to be like, oh, we can't joke, but it's just like the imagery is so it like front and center that like just him talking about like we're in a

24:58bomb the hell out of them like it. I don't know. It's like really hard for me to even be like, yeah, and he is gay. You know what I mean? Like I don't know. Just reading about black acid rain falling from the sky and I mean, I can't say what I want to say about like what someone should do to Lindsey Graham. Like it is, I don't know. I mean like just yeah, yeah. It's kind of the type of thing that like an Israeli prison guard might do to a person or it's like, you know, comparable to that. Yeah. No, it is very dark. I agree completely. There's. Yeah, I'm not like, oh, that's fucked up. Like we can't joke about it. I'm just like that is all I can think about is is the what that type of language on his part like, you know, is doing to people in the environment and

26:02well, you're not the only one who's horrified by it. Although for different reasons, I think your your reason for being horrified is grounded in humanity and some kind of moral instinct. Can you show the Megan McCain tweet? Oh, yeah, here's here's Megan McCain saying, I've known Lindsey Graham since I was a child. I am imploring anyone who will listen in the Trump administration to stop sending this man out as a surrogate. He is scaring people and doing damage to whatever message you're trying to sell to the American public about the Iran War. A message I support by the way and want to get out there and effective non-scaringly. Yeah, that's just like my daddy would have wanted me to. So it's like come and get a Uncle Lindsey. He's, you know, he's off his meds again. Yeah. And by the way, Uncle Lindsey, that is a nickname for him that the Iranian diaspora and Iranian bots have given to him. Do you have the clip called Uncle Lindsey? Apparently I'm

27:04commonly referred to as Uncle Lindsey and Iran and apparently that's a good thing. Yeah, I love he's like apparently that's a good thing. I'm with Lindsey. The idea that he's like, I guess I guess they like uncles over there. I don't know what to tell you. But like he being the face of this for at least for the messaging aspect is it's a really funny thing for Megan McCain to notice because there are a lot of Megan McCain's out there who are talking about the optics. They're talking about, no, we have to sell this war to the American people and people like Lindsey Graham are not doing a good job because he's just being he's just being honest as to what his goals are, which is to reign death and destruction upon people. Yeah. And it's funny. I can't think of a single. It says it in a funny way. I can't think of a single Israeli figure who said something comparable about any has barrest like whoa like this is not

28:08going to sell are like like that's one difference between the American right and the Israeli political spectrum. Yeah. They just have they're you know, they might be like he's not keeping us safe. They might criticize his policies. Right. But there's no one on the Zionist spectrum who's looking at what we're looking at and being like you guys are just feeding leave in Mattei like right. Yeah. Material every week. Stop it. Yeah. That's true. No, they they don't look at it that way. Go ahead. I'm sorry. I yeah, I have a question for you guys because that Megan McCain tweet is really interesting to me because I'm like, does it matter if they're selling the war to us or not? Like they're going to do it no matter what. Like there's no pretence anymore and I guess I'm just curious. Like does it does it matter? Do they need that? I mean, Trump can't run again. Like what is the it's a good question. People talk about whether there's support for a war or not or if there's protests because as we've seen like protests don't do

29:11anything. I mean, at least the way Americans protest. So is it just because she's online all day and she's like, I want there to not be any tweets that I see like I don't want to feel embarrassed. I don't want to feel I don't want to feel humiliated. I think like there is something to what you're saying. Like the manufacturing of consent is not the same as it used to be. It used to be that you're selling, you know, at least in Chomsky's model. You know, you're selling it partly to the American public to pacify them and keep them immobilized so that they don't rise up and make your job that much harder, your job of imperialist destruction. But you're mainly selling it to the intellectual class. Right. I think the the cadre of people that they're trying to sell it to like they've is smaller and smaller and they're trying to keep themselves hard. They're just fluffing themselves. Right. It's a partly an echo chamber of a rousal and two messants for more and more

30:11fucking destruction. And you can see how horny Graham is for this. And then for the rest of the populace, it is just beating them down with with a kind of strong man posing. And I don't know what they think is going to happen. But I think it can only backfire and you're seeing that among some even some right-wingers. Do you have the the tweet from virtual, I think, was one of Graham's colleagues, GOP colleagues? And he says, Birchit, I'd never heard of him before. Is he a a senator or a person I should have. I don't know who's not sure what a Tim Birchit is, but Birchit. Adam, can you look that up? But I believe he's a Republican. So he says, I'm going to quit saying stuff about Lindsey being a war monger. If our farm gets carpet bombed, Mrs. Birchit will be ticked. So that's that's some shade, I think. Or I don't think he's saying that Lindsey is based and should be admired. But I do know that there's more and more conservatives

31:16right-wingers and military people who are like, what the fuck are you doing to this guy? That's I think what they are actually doing the Hess bar for. And that's what Megan McCain cares about. Megan McCain doesn't give a shit if Liberals are going out doing mass protests against war. By the way, we're not nearly enough. Right. Or anti-war protesters in general that are of any kind of left-wing persuasion. She doesn't give a shit about it. They're never trying to convince the left of anything. What they are actively fighting against is this ever-growing movement on the right of people who meant it when they said they were anti-war. They're sort of like Tucker Carlson's kind of cadre on the right who when they say America first, they mean it at least in the sense of they would be against the idea that this entire thing is

32:19just so that Israel can solidify its geopolitical goals in the region. Like they America gains nothing from that. So when they see Lindsey Graham doing essentially this kind of like bloodthirsty neoconism that everyone had this huge reaction against people like Megan McCain get nervous because they're like, oh no, this will make us look stupid again. And I don't want to be made to look stupid. I want to be made to look like there's a smart intellectual reason for why we need to do all of this. And there's not a real reason behind it. Other than sort of a I think personal posturing because it's not like they need the consent of everybody or anybody really. I think there's one thing that all the last two plus years have proven is that they do not need the consent of the governed to do anything in this fucking country that people the way they vote doesn't

33:21matter that it is just a they will do whatever they want foreign policy wise and no one gets a say. Congress doesn't even get a say. So if nobody gets a say then there is no real democracy when it comes to our foreign policy. So they're really just doing this so that they can all sleep better at night. That's that's my general guess. But you also wonder if there's some homophobia because he's just so thirsty and moist about it all. She's not talking about how heggseth is scaring the fuck out of everyone by being an absolute chud psychopath. You know, they're you know and Trump talking about how all these Iranians are going to die and as if that's you know heggseth going on 60 minutes which by the way I want to say something about that and saying oh it's not a fair

34:21fight at all and that's how we want it. We are going to smash them which then raises the question so why were they a threat you know. But by the way if you thought that the never Trump not my president liberal intelligentsia media the New York Times CNN but forget CBS now because they've they've fallen into right frenemy hands. But but fucking tapper is double tapping on all the same kinds of framings like you know Chris Murphy if you come out against this war you're going to be labeled as against the troops. Yeah. And so it like they hate Trump until it's time to go do what every president has always done in which case it's time to fall in line hail to the chief. Yeah. But Jake Tapper has always been such a Zionist. I mean yeah. This would be really good for Israel because Iran is like you know they would diminish their ability to threaten Israel. So I

35:24think he sees that as like a huge plus like just realizing Iran means that Jake Tapper gets to talk more about anti-Semitism and how we've defeated it or the need to. Yeah. No. I mean Dana Bash both. Yeah. But there's there's a bunch of I think people who we kind of expected this from in terms of like liberal news people like Dana Bash or like you know Jake Tapper. What's interesting is with this particular you know with the US involvement they do have to tow this kind of line where now they have to justify it in some way whereas before they could just easily justify of the genocide of the Palestinian people as being necessary due to the fact that there are college campuses where people are you know yelling at Israelis you know like they could just they could make the foreign issues into domestic issues of anti-Semitism as to so as to distract

36:29from the fact that we are funding and arming a genocide in Gaza. Now they have to explain why it's okay for Trump to you know eventually put boots on the ground and that's gonna be a lot harder I think. And we're seeing I think a lot of different people trying different you know the messaging has been so scatter shot that I think it's been fun for me to watch like the uh Israeli attempts at doing his bar have been really funny because they are I mean they're always doing the same thing essentially which is like either tell people they're too stupid to understand why this needs to happen or tell them that it's anti-Semitic for them to not support the war. Here is from CBS News a video of uh Israeli President Isaac Herzog talking to CBS's count Duke Oopill. Zog is literally in his name. I know I know it's unfortunate. Come on.

37:36I'd sick her Zionist Occupy government. He went on CBS to explain the wall to people. I understand it's not a popular war in America because you know usually people do not know the intricacies of the war and they also compare it to previous and other wars. This is a unique wall and I listen very carefully to Secretary Rubio's statements yesterday in Congress. It's a unique wall. It's a focused wall. It is a war that comes in a time where you can really bring real change in the Middle East for the future. Thank you Mr. President. That was amazing. That was amazing. That's Doku Pell. That's Doku Pell. Herzog gives this absolutely condescending patronizing backslap to the face of every American.

38:42People don't understand the intricacies. You know acid rain is actually good for you. And then after this fucking ridiculous answer cut to Doku Pell. He's there with a blank expression and then he shrugs and gives them like all right. Great. Well, thank you very much. No, no further questions here. No further questions. What possible follow-up could I have to that explanation of how people don't understand how this time is going to be different? Well, I'm satisfied. Yeah, I just I love his explanation is do not compare this wall to other walls. There are many different types of wall and this one is different. By the way, I love his pronunciation of of war as well. In fact, I made it. Sorry, you know, just sometimes you need to entertain yourself and you find ways.

39:45I love his pronunciation of focust, focust. We are focust. It's incredible to be sitting there. The new head of the CBS news department, the new anchor of national news and listen to someone say people just people just don't get it, man. People are just kind of fucking stupid. He is an anchor for national news and that he's fucking dragging it down to the bottom of the ocean. Exactly. Exactly. Or at the very least keeping keeping us anchored into the status quo of just believing anything that an Israeli says. It is unfortunate how fun the accent is to do. I think it's because also Israelis love doing duck face and the pronunciation kind of forces your lips to do that. Like, you know, you take versus school to say cookie, you have to purse your lips together or focust. And so you're kind of naturally making yourself look less white, but it's very smart.

40:47Well, less white. You know, like, kind of pumping the lips up just through the pronunciation. Sure, Botox, verbose filler. Yeah. But let's say we'll talk about lip filler when we get to Olivia Rangel. That's right. But so that's one of the ways in which the Israelis are trying to sell the war to Americans. The other way is this is from the Israel's ambassador to the US. His name is Michael Leiter. And he was speaking with the BBC recently, who was they were actually asking him what I would consider to be a real question regarding the imminent threat that Iran supposedly posed. And this is how he answered this question. Either Israel nor America has provided any evidence that Iran was intending to launch an

41:49imminent attack, nor any evidence that Iran would have a nuclear weapon that could be used within weeks. Neither of those two things have been shown by the evidence shared by your country or by the Americans. Shown to home to the BBC. We've shown it to each other. We're quite confident that they were intending on using nuclear weapons once they achieve them. And right now, I don't understand exactly what the question is. You have ballistic missiles raining down on 12 different countries. That's not imaginary. I don't think that has to be proven. It's clear that they have ballistic missiles. Their link to shoot at all their neighbors. If they had nuclear tip warheads, they'd use them too. If they had nuclear tip warheads and we dropped a nuclear bomb on them, they'd use them. They'd start nuking us. I mean, come on. We're preempting their reaction to the preemption that we just did. This is such an insane argument. Everything he just said was crazy. He just the BBC anchor asked some point blank, hey, we have received no evidence

42:50that there was any imminent threat. He said, what you, you mean at the BBC? Well, I received it from America. And America received it from me. And I think it's literally our evidence. And we said, y'all, y'all, y'all, time to go in. That line, the phrase is this, you know, we've been shown to have it. It's shown to whom the BBC. We've shown it to ourselves. That is so insane. It is so crazy. He then goes on to explain that the proof that they are an imminent threat is that the Iranians fired ballistic missiles after they were attacked. This is this logic only, I think, makes sense to somebody who believes it is illegal for any country that is attacked by either the US or the Israelis is not allowed to fight back. He believes it should be illegal to fight back against them. And he shows it as an imminent threat because he says, yeah, when we hit them,

43:55they try to hit us back. Clearly, we should not allow any country to exist in any region that has the ability to fight back. And that should make you pause for a moment to wonder what the real purposes are for this war. I'm going to imagine that I'm going to predict that within a couple of years, the US foreign policy is going to be just on a rotating basis, bomb random countries to see if they have the capacity to hit back. Yeah, make sure they don't, you know, I have a question. Please. Okay. So I'm going to say something that we're all thinking. And if the FBI is listening, I'm just joking because I'm a comedian. I love that. That's right. Why? And I don't support, I don't support this happening. No. Why have, you know, these countries not bombed us since 9-11? And when is it going to happen? And is it going to be in DC or New York?

44:58Hmm. I mean, these are all the questions for Boston. And is the reason why because they, you know, there's what's the word, not snipers, but the equivalent of that that can see like, oncoming? Like, what is the technology involved? Like, I don't understand. Is that, well, I don't want anyone to die. It seems very likely. And that there, that there would be blowback. Yes. And also we are the aggressors. We in Israel are the aggressors. Yeah. We are the bad guys here. And so it would make sense, right? Did anyone know what I'm saying? And I have no involvement in any tourist organizations. Yeah. I don't think it's illegal to ask that question, by the way. I mean, it's like, why haven't they, if only to just make travel plans, you know, yeah. But like, doesn't that make sense? Also, like, they have nothing to lose. Like, they're, they are either going, Iran is either about to, it's going to become a civil war or,

45:59or, you know, right. Well, I do think it's partly capacity. I mean, they're hitting Israel because they can't. Right. And Tel Aviv's taking significant damage, which they don't want us to know about, except they want us to know that they're having poor and parties in bomb shelters and doing great or having, they will dance again. And our gay gay sex parties as Daniel Ryan Spalding promised. I don't know if we want to play that video. Oh, yeah, Lindy Graham. Lindy Graham's niece or nephew. Yeah. Let's. I actually, I do have Daniel Ryan Spalding talking about his sex parties inside of the fucking. Yeah. Just, just, uh, just tonight in our bomb shelter for organizing a gay sex party. He found a bomb shelter with air conditioning. Very breathable, very comfortable. The iron dome will protect us and join the power of raw, strong, is a really manpower. All right. I'm sorry, but do you think Sarah and gas

47:06could get in through that air conditioning? I'm just asking. Just, just curious. We'll see. Uh, well, there, there, there, there comes a point now and this is not me body shaming. I know that Daniel Ryan Spalding went through a very powerful journey of losing a lot of weight, but he's gaining it back in alcohol bloat and it's making me so happy. Who is that? Who is that? Why did I have to see him? Why did you show that to me? He is a, uh, an influencer slash, um, comedian, uh, comedian, very originally. I very rarely put comedian in, in air quotes, but that's, that's one I have to do for him, uh, who became, uh, sort of a Hezbollah's for Israel who just, uh, he's a paid Hezbollah's. And he used to be about 300 pounds. Yes. Yes. He had, uh, his, his first claim to fame was his weight loss journey. Um, and then it became, uh, him being someone who loves genocide. And he's not Jewish.

48:09No, no, no, no, he's not Jewish. He's a power going. He's a power going. He's a really buried the lead there. That part is insane. Yeah. People who go to Israel and aren't Jewish because it's like, so you didn't even have that indoctrination, like the one that we had, yep, yep, like birthright. Yeah. Isn't that wild? That is crazy. That's like, that fucker still has more rights than Muhammad al-Qurd. Yes. Yes. He does. What were you saying, Andrew? Yeah. Oh, just like, you know, it's like when people convert to Catholicism and adulthood, it's a, we'll never understand it. Right. They go from, uh, like no religion to like opus day. It's just like the, his, his whole thing is, is, uh, is even more disgusting because he is pretty much said out loud, um, that he is doing it for clout. Um, he's talked up the amount of clout that he has gotten since then. And as a way to say, are you, are all you blue hair, um, you know, uh, Islamists on college campuses

49:10jealous because every time I tweet about Israel, I get, uh, more followers and more money and, and you're all gonna stay poor. It's like, it's very sad. But anyways, all that to say that he, uh, he looks great. Yeah. He's even, he's even co-opting Jewish stereotypes. It's so on the nose. I love money. Yes. Yes. Yes. He's, as opposed to being Jewish for the jokes. Uh, yeah. He's Jewish for the tropes. He's pointing to the rain. He's like, I did that. That's so great. Um, we need to get him and Lindsey Graham together. Yeah. Oh god. You know, it smells crazy in there. You know, it smells crazy in there. Um, but yeah, uh, it is, uh, I think to your point, Daniel, um, do you remember what your point was with bringing in when you just saw how we got to Daniel Ryan's balding? I don't even know how we got there. Uh, bombs shelters, uh, uh,

50:12hitting Tel Aviv hitting Tel Aviv. That's right. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. The capacity. Right. Yeah. But I appreciate the premise that I had a point. I appreciate that, that assumption. That I had a point. So Trump, uh, you know, to your point, Daniel, um, Trump is actually openly stated, uh, that when someone asked him, are you worried about there being blowback? Is it possible that there could be some sort of blowback on missile or what not, you know, comes to hit the United States? And he said, quote, I guess so. And that was just kind of how he dismissed it. It's like, yeah, I guess it's anything's possible. So to your point, Daniel, uh, I do think that obviously Israel, uh, is receiving the blowback that you're talking about, uh, uh, Andrea, uh, I deserved it. Did I do it right? No. All right. And you really sounded like

51:14you didn't do it right on purpose. Yeah. Yeah. No, no, no, no, no. I didn't, I didn't pray. I truly was scared to say it. I'm never going to get it right. It's fine. Hey, I'm scared too. We're all scared. Um, uh, Israel is more used to what I suppose maybe prepare. They, they obviously are trying to pretend as if everything's fine. They have their iron dome and they're impenetrable and everything's great. But clearly, they are being pummeled, which is, uh, yeah, uh, he can't wait for the blowback. Am I right? He loves getting blown back. But, uh, the United States though is different. You know, I mean, I think the targets that are chosen by the United States are all pretty obvious, uh, in that the one thing they all share is their inability to have missiles that can reach the United States. I mean, it's one of the reasons why we have not, uh, actually gone to war with North Korea or China, uh, you know, uh, or had direct war with Russia. These are, uh, as soon as the country actually has those capabilities,

52:19I think that we, that's when we go, wait, wait, wait, wait, hold on a second. So we're just joking. Yeah, exactly. I mean, and so unfortunately, it's the cold war theory of, you know, deterrence by, yes, you know, the whole arms racing in a real sense that does seem to be the way the world works. Right. And this is why I've always been like, Iran, get a nuke, do it. Like, there's nothing makes me feel more like, damn, the Rosenbergs honestly had a point. Uh, like, history has vindicated Julius and Ethel Rosenberg, who were, uh, the USSR spies who were able to help them develop a nuke. Nothing vindicates them more than watching the way the United States deals with countries that don't have nukes, which is to bully them to the point of, uh, either getting in line with whatever US foreign policy is, or just even if they are conceding, just going, ah, we're going to fuck with you anyways, you know, so, um, I, as Trump's mentor Roy Cohn who got

53:22Ethel Rosenberg killed. That's right. That's right. I didn't even realize that connection as, as dramatized in angels in America. That's right. Yeah. God's so good. I fucking Al Pacino. I had many series. That's the case of a Broadway play really being done right in the cinematic form by Michael's. It's so fucking good. Everyone's so good in that. Um, Merrill Streep, she had not only plays Ethel Rosenberg, but she plays like a Hasidic Jew at one point. She has the first, the first, in the very first scene of the, of the series. Yeah. She plays Hasidic Jews rather. Incredible, dude. Um, anyways, point being that Anna Mormon mother. Yeah. I know. She's so good in it. Everyone plays multiple roles. It's fantastic. This Merrill Streep. She, she's going in that name. She's going places. But yeah, I think, uh, the United States obviously has to do, uh, a lot of different propaganda in order to justify themselves. Uh, and one of the big mistakes that was mentioned earlier was Rubio, uh, essentially giving up the ghost and saying

54:28the reason for the war, uh, is because of Israel. We played it, uh, last week on the Patreon only episode, but I want to play, uh, this again for, um, everybody because it was just such a, it was such a jaw dropping moment for a lot of us. The fact that he just admitted what the imminent threat posed by Iran was. Here's absolutely wasn't imminent threat. And the imminent threat was that we knew that if Iran was attacked and we believed they would be attacked, that they would immediately come after us. And we were not going to sit, sit there and absorb a blow before we responded, because the Department of War assessed it. Stop it. So I got Lindsey Graham on your brain. I know we need to have like no Lindsey, like as an, as an introduction, you know, no Lindsey. Yeah. If we did that, if we waited for them to hit us first after they were attacked and by someone else, Israel attacked them, they hit us first and we waited for them to hit us. We would suffer more casualties and more deaths. So I mean, such a crazy thing to admit. And of course it was

55:31immediately walked back by, uh, not only Rubio, but the president by everyone. Everyone was walking back. Well, whoa, whoa, when he, when I said out loud, there absolutely wasn't imminent threat. And that imminent threat was that, uh, Israel was going to attack and, uh, we knew that the Iranians would attack back. Like that is an insane thing to admit. Like, well, we knew that this was going to happen. So what other choice did we have? Israel is a rabid dog and is going to do this and pull us into this war. But God damn it. We love that puppy. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Just listen, it might be rabid. It might be infecting everyone it sees. It might just be foaming at the mouth and drooling, but isn't it cute and little? It's so sweet. And it's never once bit the hand that feeds it billions of dollars, except, you know, the US's liberty. Israel is going to say, except for 9.11. I'm just kidding. Um, but the, uh, so much, so much parody on this episode, so many things

56:34being said that, uh, our guests don't actually mean. That's right. That's right. Um, yeah. So, we got you, Andrew. We got you. Don't worry. Yeah. The, the, the imminent threat that they talked about there was, of course, walk back. And I, I don't know if you guys have seen this. I have, and I want to talk about it a little bit before we take a break. Um, but one of the new Hasbar points that has come out about, uh, trying to make it so no, no, no, don't listen to Rubio. This, we are doing this for American interests. Uh, and so one of those Hasbar points has been this. This is some right wing guy who, of course, is followed by, he's an American. He's followed by a bunch of Israeli accounts. He says, the US gets 10% of its oil from the Middle East. China gets 55%. Do you realize who the real target is yet? Or do you still think it is a, quote, war for Israel? So this person, and I've seen this not only on the right, but I'll be real with you.

57:39I saw this pointed out on the left to, um, or by liberals that no actually, this is all a part of, uh, the US's grand strategy of trying to do a proxy war against China by limiting the amount of oil that the Chinese get. Um, this is a really, this is a really funny bit of Hasbarat to me because number one, uh, this, uh, that affects us way more than it affects China. Yeah, uh, the, the, uh, you know, trying to, um, you know, uh, destroy their ability to get oil, their ability to do manufacturing, whatnot, that hurts us. That's, we are so interdependent on China, that the idea that, um, this is an effective strategy against China is kind of ridiculous. But beyond that, it being the new strategy of the right to be like, no, no, no, you're going to

58:41like this war because it's an anti-China war is such a funny point to make for people. I don't know that there is one sense. There is one very disgusting and dark sense in which it's true. Uh, coming back to what Andrea said about just the, just the, the thought of the acid rain, wind patterns are blowing those clouds over India of the subcontinent, um, over towards West, uh, Western China. Right. And I just wish for once that fucking winds would get with the program and blow west. Right. Yeah. Where the culprits are, you know. Yeah. And if that man hitting us, fuck it. Like, uh, I, I, I would rather that than more poor brown and unenvolved countries who aren't guilty of this crap. Like we, we, and or Israel, and of course, Israel would get hit first

59:43need to feel some kind of consequence for this or it'll never, ever, ever, ever, ever change. And I'm not praying for that for myself or anyone I love, but God damn it. But Daniel, this is why I keep going back to. I really do think the Jews control the weather. There you go. That's right. Yep. That's right. If they didn't, when the winds at some point, head towards Israel, think about that. Um, yeah, I always find that strange because Israel is right next to where they're bombing. But the videos I see, like the sky is always blue. Don't aren't, aren't they also susceptible to what? Yeah. I mean, there were Israelis. Who was that, who was that his barist? She was American. And she said the only reason we shouldn't nuke Gaza is because it was Bethany Mandel. Bethany Mandel. Exactly. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. The one who was all up in arms because her child's summer camp had a false alarm of, of Hamas fighters

1:00:46when it was actually just the local parachute. Yeah. And yeah, she had a, it evacuated all the, all the kids to the Khadrachel, you know, the dining room. But yeah, I mean, this other point about the China thing that I've seen, which really has annoyed me, and this is a message to liberals in the left that I need to make, which is like, some people are saying, um, trying to make this point about it being part of a grand US strategy. Either because it's a part of the war against China or because it's just part of an imperial mindset or whatever, um, I need people on the left to stop shadow boxing with a pack because they, what they're trying to do is say, Hey, don't fall into this anti-Semitic trope that we are doing this war for Israel. This is an anti-Semitic trope when really the United States knows perfectly

1:01:48well what it's doing. It's not doing it for Israel. You know, it's doing it for its own geopolitical purposes. And I'm like, guys, guys, guys, guys, guys, listen, I am all for the idea of, of course, that the United States is the fucking toughest motherfucker on the block. They are the number one fucking imperialist power in the world, bar none. Um, that being said, this very particular, uh, incursion into Iran is 100% at the behest of the Israelis. Uh, to the point where Rubio gave up the fucking ghost accidentally to the point where they essentially, uh, have not come up with a reason for why yet. The messaging is, is going in all directions because the actual message did not go over very well, which was, well, we did it because Israel was going to do this anyways. We need to stop shadow boxing with people who are going to call you anti-Semitic. Number one,

1:02:49because it's like pedantic and stupid. And number two, because you are not fighting anti-Semitism by saying, hey, don't say this, we're doing this for Israel. You're legitimizing that has bar acclaimed that calling this war a war for Israel is anti-Semitic. It's not anti-Semitic to say that. Israel is a whole other country. Israel does not the representative of every Jew. Uh, and yes, Israel has a powerful lobby, uh, and has ties within the American government that make it possible for them to convince a stupid motherfucker like Donald Trump to fucking go and, uh, join in on an invasion of Iran. And number three, yeah. Number three, I'm sorry, there is validity to the claim that there's a Jewish supremacist agenda to all of this, whether it's the Jewish Jewish supremacists or the Christian Zionist Jewish sub-supremacists who want Jews to be, you know, the leading tip of the spear, uh, to be discarded when the rapture comes. But I'm sorry, you, it's, it's not

1:03:50some kind of strange innuendo that's not connected to some kind of reality, just like talking about, you know, going whatever, like I'm, right, right, right, you're quoting the fucking Epstein's, you're quoting, right, you're quoting Israel, you're quoting, you're, you're, you're accurately, if, if in a distorted way, but there's plenty of fodder for it. So deal with the fucking fodder, rather than people's misguided or well-guided reactions to it. Right. I mean, and I'm just saying in this particular case, it is very clearly this is for the sake of the Israelis. We have no, we have no goals. There is no plan. Every single person who's a representative of the US government, uh, has come up with a different reason for why this needs to happen. And for different war aims, Rubio's latest statement, I think today said nothing whatsoever about degrading, uh, nuclear capability. All of a sudden, that's not on the table. It's not an issue. Never was. Yeah, exactly. Because the reason there's the messaging is messed

1:04:51up is because there was no messaging. It was done, uh, because Trump was convinced to do it. That's it. That's, this is simple as that. And he was convinced to it by Israel deal with it. What do you two think is the end goal? Like is it to just completely obliterate the regime and for Israel? It is to, uh, to turn, um, Iran into, uh, just a failed state, a failed state to make it just chaos there where there's no particular government that's ever in control to create a civil war to do to make sure that it is as unstable as possible so that they can continue to solidify, um, their, uh, dominance in the region. Um, their regional hegemony is the goal. And for the United States, the goal is given that we're now being run by absolute, um, you know, creating fueled lunatics. Yeah. And closeted psychopaths. Yeah. Um, the goal is to just create fear

1:05:57and chaos and, and, and, and, and be the mad dog on the block. And, and to get off, I mean, it's just hedonistic at this point as far as I can tell. Hegseth is just, he's just fulfilling a lifelong fantasy. Right. That's not really about geopolitical aims as much as it is about projecting power. And I got to say, when I hear right-winger, right-wingers like, say, Sagar and Jedi, I was listening to him on Tucker Carlson's podcast. Don't hate me, but I'm interested in what these people are talking about. And, and how they're framing it. Um, you know, the sort of, that's how I know, I know. Uh, and I like the ads on, I like listening to Tucker's ad reads for, um, you know, for what? I don't know. Free speech coffee or, for, yeah, for, oh, there was like a potato, there was like a corn chip brand. Uh, yeah, gun chips. Yeah. Uh, but it's, he has he does it in that he does in the exact same cadence. So like in the middle of one of his monologues, all of a sudden, the sound quality will change slightly, but it'll just be like

1:06:59everybody knows that food is, uh, full of, yeah, there's a lot of inflammation now. Right. Yeah. Obviously. Why? Whoa. You know what? I, but there's a guy in Instagram who does a much better Tucker Carlson impression. Yeah. Tucker Carlson and Lord of the Rings. I forget the guys. Oh, I love that guy. Yeah. He's very funny. Um, but, uh, you know, Sagar and Jedi's talking about how this is degrading our ability to project power in the world. Mm-hmm. Uh, you know, which, opposed the war for whatever reason you want. Sure. But being nostalgic for the days of American hegemony and the unipolar moment and, and the ability to project power and make people afraid or whatever, um, you're not going to get me on board with, with grieving for that. But, right. And I think that's what Hegg says thinks he's doing. He's upping the ante of America's ability to, but it, of course, he, Sagar's right. It's going to backfire. It's going to blow back. And when Empire is working, but it's going to blow back in bigger ways than we've ever seen. When empires get this heubristic, it, it spells the end. Yeah. Absolutely. Guys, we need to take a

1:08:03quick break. But, uh, everyone, please stick around. Listen to these ads for gunships and we'll be right back. My name's Mackenzie and I started to go fund me for the adoptive mother of a nonverbal autistic child. The mother had lost her job because she wasn't able to find adequate care for this autistic child. So she really needed some help with living expenses, paying some back bills. So I launched a GoFundMe to help support them during this crisis. And we raised about $10,000 within just a couple of months. I think that the surprising thing was by telling a clear story and just like really being very clear about what we needed. We had some really generous donations from people who were really moved by the situation that this family was struggling with. GoFundMe is the world's number one fundraising platform trusted by over 200 million people.

Cops are being just murdered in the streets by gangs of children who are humiliating them with various snowballs. Cops have been slipping on black ice and dying because of Mamdani. How has New York been for you, Daniel, as someone who's now a demi-status due to your Jewish heritage? Yeah, it's tough. And now that all the snow has melted and it's about 65 degrees,

1:11:18you know, I'm getting scared of all the kids coming out and putting little flower buds in cops' hair and I was praying them with water guns and all those kinds of terrorist, terrorist activities. Yeah, no, it's okay. I'm getting used to a halal food truck only diet. It's a lot. I can imagine. Chicken biryani on rice is great twice a day. Three meals a day. I don't know too much. They're called a prayer. Yeah, it's the Jewish tummy. Yeah, it's bad for the IBS. That's right, but it's I BF. Oh, yes, sorry, I BF. Yeah, that's right. No, but seriously, it's really fun for us. They ensure that our diets stay, you know, something digestible. That's why those green shirts

1:12:23are that shade. Exactly. Well, you can fill in the rest. They are irritable. Yes, they sure are. So, yeah, New York obviously has Zora and Mamthani as their mayor, but not only that, but they have a first lady or whatever you call a mayor's wife. And she is being attacked by the free press and by the fact that she's being exposed. No, that's right. She's being held to account for her, for her public statements against Israel, aka, she likes some tweets on Instagram. And because likes are public on Instagram, Olivia Rinegold of the free press, press found out about it and decided to make an expose of it. Here is a CBS journalism. That's right. Well, that's a journalism is CBS news posted out. New York City mayor Zora and Mamthani's wife, Rama Dawaji liked Instagram posts that appeared

1:13:24to support the October 7th attacks on Israel. CBS news verified that Dawaji liked one post from October 7th, showing images of the attack and another one from the day after the attack, showing images of anti-Israel protests in New York City. When asked about the post, Mamthani said his wife was is a, quote, private person who has held no formal position on my campaign or in my city hall. I barely even know her dude. I barely even know her. We don't know her for now, her name. So first of all, it was an arranged marriage. Did you sleep in that bed? You know us, my friend. Yeah. Did you see John Pudhord's tweet? No. I don't have a copy of it. Maybe Adam can throw it on screen and post. He tweeted, Hey, Zoran, you know who else was a private person, Ava Braun. Yeah. Which I love, you know, I love being so detached. It's like people say things

1:14:31like, you know who else was a vegetarian Hitler, but being like, you know who else was private? It's like, I don't know who could be anyone. Gang is con, you know, fuck off. But the free press obviously went all in on this line of attack to try to go after Zoran. And, you know, I love how much they're flailing. Like they're trying really hard to make his, you know, it's like he's no longer right. He already won. So there's nothing you can do except for stay mad. And they have a commitment to that. So here's the free press. The free press is now the investigative wing of CBS news. Yeah. Right. Straight up. I mean, this is the honestly, you're, you've pointed out something that is important to point out, which is that this is sort of an efficiency, a more efficient way of doing what they usually do to launder these kinds of stories through mainstream media.

1:15:36Usually what they do is they have a bunch of these bad faith actors, you know, these are publications like the Jewish insider or various different like the Hollywood reporter. Or I mean, Hollywood reporter, sure. But it's usually it's like these sort of smaller on blogs that are essentially bankrolled by a pack and by, you know, pro-Israel groups. They create the story. And then if you have a critical mass of them, enough of them, then get picked up by things like CBS news or whatever, you know, mainstream news outlet that says, hey, a lot of people are talking about how you're an anti-Semite. Do you have a response? Well, they just made the free press and CBS news, you know, it's all owned by Barry Weiss. So she gets to do both at the same time. She gets to create the news and then report it on CBS. It is a beautiful, beautiful little self-fulfilling trope they got going on there.

1:16:41It's called vertical integration and it's great for shareholders. Do you know what I'm talking about? Donnie's wife, Rama Dhuwaji, liked a post calling October 7th a mass rape hoax. That was only one of more than 70 anti-Israel posts I found, liked by mom Donnie's wife, one post. I love, sorry, more than 70 that I found. Because it's like, well, first of all, give us an exact number. Second of all, is that before you gave up or is that the some total of all the ones that you found? It is just, there's something about revealing your dedication to trying to find stuff to smear someone with. That is very funny to me. I just wish Olivia Rengold was, I wish the background was completely pitch black to match her top because then inner eyes, inner eyes, but she's literally in an Israeli bomb shelter right now. Yeah, exactly. It's incredible that she

1:17:44has this kind of lighting. So you can honestly, it's brave is what it is. But with the, with the decolatage or whatever that's called, the cut of her thing, it would just be this floating head about 70%, of which is lips floating on top of a home Natasha, because she's trying to pronounce what was the full, Dauaji, Fokus. Oh, Fokus. Fokus. Fokus. Fokus. Fokus. She's guys, let's, let's stay focused on what Olivia Rengold has said, October 9th, 2023, just two days after October 7th. Characterize the It turns to tack. October 9th is just two days after, thank you for the, thank you for the, the math there. That's, you know, it's really, it's really fun to know that half of the shit she writes is chat GPT and that's one of the, it's one of the good ways to learn that.

1:18:45To give you the math on how many days it's nine is after seven. It turns to tack as a, is that a common chat GPT? Like just two days after, is that it's filler? Just like her lip. Yeah, yeah, it's more filler than, than her lips. That's, that's how it works. Fensive action against a quote system of oppression. Many of the post traffic in anti-Semitic themes, including Holocaust inversion. One post, like by Duwashi, refers to a controversial Israeli prison as a quote, concentration camp. Holocaust inversion, that's my, Holocaust inversion is my favorite yoga pose. I can't do that anymore. Yeah. I like that she's choosing to superimpose the tweets and posts because they're very cogent. Like these are all good excerpts. And yeah, why don't we back up and actually read them? It's a good point, Andrea. Let's look at the content of what she's showing. So when she's talking about, you know, system of oppression, yes, correct.

1:19:45So basically a post that's putting October 7th in the context of an occupied people, you know, rising up violently to try to throw off the shackles of their oppression, correct. Next one. All right. Next one is a child's view from Gaza. Uh-huh. And so a child drew that. That's like an actual drawing, right? Yes. A palatable child. That's right. Yeah. It's a child's view from Gaza. And he saw books with children's art and children's poetry from Gaza, which she's calling an anti-Semitic trope. Right. I mean, those are the words she's saying while she shows that graphic. Right. Yeah. Showing a child on the ground, hands up on the knees, and then an IDF soldier, you know, shooting them or pointing gun at them. And that IDF soldier's nose doesn't appear to be too hooked. I don't see a Jewish star on it. It's a fairly, fairly restrained anti-Semitic trope if it is one. Yeah. The siege on Gaza is all about resources.

1:20:49Is another anti-Semitic trope. I love that. It's like, this is a, she's did not think to any point go like, well, maybe to the perspective of most normal people, these posts all seem kind of restrained and kind of true. Instead, she's so mired in this worldview that she has convinced herself of so many dog whistles that her mind is, you know, proactively search and replacing words with worse words. That's right. So that when she reads stuff like that, like resources, you know, it's already searched and replaced it to something anti-Semitic. But no one else's brain works like this unless you're a Zionist. And of course, Holocaust inversion is exactly what her side is guilty of. It would be, if anyone is, but like, have any, did any of the posts say, you know what, in light of October 7th,

1:21:51it was actually the Jews who committed a Holocaust against the Germans. Right. As far as I can tell, none of the posts say that. Yeah, which is what actual Holocaust inversion might sound like. This idea of Holocaust inversion is when you accuse the Jewish state of doing bad things to the Palestinians. Like, that's not, it's not Holocaust inversion. And also, like this, to take this to its logical conclusion, it would mean that Israel could actually kill six million Palestinians. And if you accuse them of doing a Holocaust, they'd still be like, damn, that's fucked of you to invert the Holocaust that way. No, it's fucked up of you to invert the Holocaust that way. You're the one doing the Holocaust. You don't get to control how people talk about it. So this graphic here, inside the black site at the heart of the Zionist entity, seeing what wasn't meant to be seen as a report on State Day Monor, one of these prison camps in the desert.

1:22:54Right, exactly. And Rama liked the post. This is from writers against the war. So it's from an organization called writers against the war. So I just wanted to point out, this isn't like a random Twitter account. This is an organization made out of myriad writers, many of them are Jewish. Like, yeah, it's a legitimate, organic group. And speaking of groups legitimately against the war, the quote unquote war, this idea that people went out on October 8th and October 9th to anti-Israel rallies, as if nothing had happened between the events of the morning of October 7th. And the afternoone of October 7th, as no Israeli government official had sworn on the graves of the six million to kill another fucking hundred thousand or more to wipe out Amalek as if we weren't out in the streets

1:23:54on October 8th to actively, not to, we weren't trying to rub salt in the wound on October 7th. We were trying to raise the alarm of what was coming. Yes, yes, what was coming and what was already happening. And this is what pisses me off about the revisionism that you see from all of these psychopaths. And it's revisionism that is, was repeated for by people who are not psychopaths, people who I knew personally, who to this day repeat the same fucking lie, which is that as soon as October 7th happened, everyone went out in the street and said, yay, I'm so glad that terrorism has happened to the Israelis. That is not what fucking happened. There were, of course, people who did talk about the Palestinians escape from Gaza in terms that could be seen as, I don't know, lauding them and whatnot. For very good reasons, which was that they live in a fucking open air prison and they escaped

1:24:57and did a prison break. And people talked about it like, wow, that was amazing because anyone who's followed this for any period of time actually did think it was kind of incredible that they were able to pull that off, knowing that it was the most, the most surveilled fucking area in the entire fucking world. It was. That was exactly one half of my reaction and the other half was, wow, I probably know some people in on these keep it seen, you know? Yeah. Wow, that sounds scary and horrible. Wow, what a catastrophic event. Wow, this is going to change everything. And I was holding both of those things very capably at the same time. Yes. Wow, I wish this hadn't happened. I wish Israel hadn't created the conditions where this was inevitable. Wow, I can't believe it didn't happen sooner. But very, and I would have loved to hang out in that duality. I would have loved to have hung out in that place of empathy, compassion in between this and ambivalence, right? But Israel made that absolutely impossible. And it would have been immoral to stay in that place,

1:25:58given what they were promising to do next, which was to magnify the suffering and the hell and the pain they were already inflicting on the Palestinians every single minute of every single day for 20 years and much, much, much longer. Immediately after October 7th, the October 7th attacks and during, during the attacks, not just after, during when people were still cousins and Palestinians were still on the cabutses in some cases, Israel immediately started doing retaliatory attacks, including some that killed the Israelis who were in these cabutses. I mean, we've talked about the handbook directives and whatnot. That was also retaliatory because they were retaliating against their own people for being caught. Captops and being victims and, you know. Right. But they were already on that day, attacking through a air strikes targets in Gaza.

1:26:59So the idea that people are out on the streets immediately just doing a celebration, no, it is not what they were doing. Everyone who knows about this issue, who was taking to the streets to talk about anything, they were talking about one thing in particular, it was we need to stop what we know is going to be coming. What we know is going to be coming is this retaliation, quote unquote, against the people of Gaza and it will be genocidal from the beginning. People were saying that and people tried to use that as an excuse as to like, oh, no, you guys were making up lies about us from the beginning. It's like, no, we just knew how y'all do. That's right. We know you're still low. I was at Grand Army Plaza and I didn't hear any chance that said, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, yes, it was not that five. Yeah. I was at a music festival. I didn't hear the same. Were you really at a music festival?

1:28:00I'm not going to lie. Nevertheless, you persisted during women's history, though. That's right. Let's hear a little. I like to say, I will stand awkwardly on the side of the dance floor watching people dance again. Yes, that's right. I will stand by the punch bowl again. Yeah, here we go. One post, liked by Duwashi, refers to a controversial Israeli prison as a quote, concentration camp. I love that you admit that it's controversial. You admit that it's a controversy camp. It's not a concentration camp. It's a controversy camp. Right, it's a controversy camp. Completely different. Also, what's controversial about it? You want to explain? Yeah, let's want the section that you want to explain. You should explain why it is. Yeah. Can you tell us a little bit about it? Is the Zionist Black site, a concentration camp located 18 miles from the Gaza Strip, Palestinian men presumed to be part of the resistance are captured from Gaza by the I.O.F. Blindfolded, handcuffed, humiliated, and beaten by prison guards.

1:29:01Oh, they left out one verse. They left out one verse? I guess it wasn't so well known back then. Yes, very specifically, this, the controversy she's referring to is the rapes that are done by the prison guards to the Palestinian prisoners. Rapes that have been widely reported so much so that even the people of Israel and their courts in Israel have tried to, at the very least, if not prosecute, say, hey, that's not good, guys. And there have been freaking protests in front of Stai Teiman to stop people from arresting the rapists. That's the controversy, Matt. That's the controversy. Concentration camp. This is what the post says. The concentration camp has a singular aim to exterminate Palestinians and destroy their resistance. The mayor responded to a reporter's question on this yesterday,

1:30:02but that was before I uncovered 70 plus other posts for the free press. My wife is the love of my life and she's also a private person who has held no formal position on my campaign or in my city hall. It's no secret that Duwaji, who's an illustrator, is a supporter of the Palestinian cause. Much of her artistic portfolio revolves around the war in Gaza. What is new is the evidence suggesting her strong bias against Israel, which is depicted as evil, morally bankrupt and genocidal in the post-liked by Duwaji. That's nothing new. That's not new. You just said that's not new. What the Palestinian cause is. Yeah, this, that makes no sense. But that was before. It's not a scoop. I just think it's really, a lot of the people who are guilty of doing Hasbara, they're quite good at fear-mongering.

1:31:04Sure. It's really noteworthy how bad she is at this. The playbook has been going on for a long time and she's maybe potentially radicalizing people or helping them understand what people who are anti-Zionist actually believe. Like, how are you so bad at this? Do you know what I mean? Do you remember what her last big scoop was? I tried to pay attention to her. It was that many of the children killed in Gaza actually had pre-existing medical conditions. Oh, not even her. Many of the children starving. The starving, yes, big scoop. She found over 70 children. I wonder how they got those conditions. I wonder what entity was responsible for perhaps the... Yeah, and I wonder what starvation does to compound those conditions. Are you saying that Israel does not have the right to pre-exist? I'm just saying medical issues. It's a Jewish thing. That's our thing. You have the upset Tommy's, how dare you?

1:32:05How dare you co-opt our pre-existing conditions? Our pain and discomfort. It is. No, but really stupid of her to, again, put the images on the thing. You can read them very clearly and there's a way to do this where she doesn't do that. And she's just like, she is making Jews less safe. And instead, it's like, no, these are pretty... Like, you didn't do anything here. Right. No. And it's particularly impressive that she would say, you know, Duage has a long history of, you know, talking about the Palestinian cause. But for the first time ever, we've uncovered her bias in that she is pro the Palestinian cause. Just, I've got to, I've got to like, hats off to Miss Ryan Gold. She continues to impress me in terms of how stupid she can get. I didn't know she could get worse than pre-existing conditions

1:33:07or the real starvation. That is incredibly, incredibly beautiful. Well, speaking... This is like, this is your strongest soldier. Like, this is your pain to do this. And this is their first string quarterback. Yeah. Yeah. And you look insane. I mean... Yeah, I mean, she's just focused. Well, speaking of, you know, just flopping and reacting to absolutely nothing, we have one more little tidbit to finish the show. That's right. Which is so delicious. We're gonna end with folks. There's a stereotype that Jews are not athletic, okay? And I want to show you a new Jewish soccer star. Although it's in Europe, so be football. But this guy has the fucking chops. He's got the skills. Yeah. He's got the basic fundamentals down. That's right. And he'd be an asset to any European football club or Israeli for that matter. That's like, he's, that's right, he's the new Ronaldo. This is out of, out of Nice in France,

1:34:11where there was a, some sort of a pro-Palestine demonstration and then we meet our newest Jewish athlete hero. Let's see like, let's go home. Let's move, let's move! Let's move, let's move! Ah! Ah! Ah, let's see! Ah! Who did this? Ah! Yeah! Ah! Ah! Who did this? Stop! Who did this? Who did this? For those... Who did this? For those who are listening. Okay. For those of you who are listening, what we just saw was a unfortunately stereotypically Jewish-looking man. Yes, a conservative Jewish man, he's wearing a kipa and he is confronting some activists and out of nowhere he pretends to have been struck and or I'm not sure what he's pretending.

1:35:15Well, say it morphs because the first thing he like gets alarmed at seeing something. Right. Like that's what it is like he points and he recoils and he runs away and it takes him up three or four steps and I love that this is a slow motion. Yeah. And then he realizes, wait a minute, I have to fake being injured and that's when he doubles over and clutches his stomach. Let's play it again. You'll see where his tactic changes. All right, here we've got instant replay. He's going towards the police, touching himself in different spots and the thing is the police do. And then a woman comes by, a woman with a shopping bag comes by, would you please leave him alone, please leave him alone? That's great. He's embarrassed himself enough.

1:36:18Yeah, I love that that's his wife and it's just like he's sorry, he's like he'll come down after the Palestinian flags get put away. Maybe he just doesn't have a scene. Yeah, that's right, jab. Remember those videos of people who like shaking, it reminds me of that, like filming themselves. Yeah, this is the new jab shake. Yeah, oh man, I love that. He's, he is like the greatest thing was that he is flopping towards the cops and then at some point he realizes the cops are not going to stop him or like hold him. And so he just continues flopping away, like he just continues flopping past them. Into the sunset. Into the sunset. The cops are like, oh, jeez, now we got to deal with this shit.

1:37:18Wow. It does make me think about, you know, like during the campus protests, like how the cops were so on the side of the Zionist, but I do wonder if every once in a while they're like, do they have to be so Jewish? I know, I know it is like you have to understand how embarrassing this is for the Jewish people, I would say. Like there's this constant, I always thought it was a really funny thing to make fun of right wing Nazis online would say shit like the Jew shrieks in pain as he strikes you. And I would laugh at it because I was like, that's such a funny, it's a funny way of I'm talking about like, because I feel like that was my strategy against my older brother. Yeah. In order to get, you know, it was like my preemptive strike was to get my parents to yell at him before he started attacking me. So I would shriek and shriek to live up to that press conference on that.

1:38:20Yeah, exactly. He made a whole press conference about how we do, like to actually do that in real life as an adult is so fucking embarrassing that I, I just can't, we got to do something guys, we got to stop, we got to have like a conference call with our people. Yeah, we've got to, we've got to do something, we need to, we need a, we need a solution that will last. Yeah, to the way these Jews are making us Jews look bad. No, an internal solution. Yes, yes, an internal last that, you know, we'll take care of it. You know, oh God, we're taking it back. We're taking it back. That's right. We're reclaiming, we're reclaim, we're, we're reclaiming solutions. And you know what? Listen, I'm a non interventionist at heart, but we need to just a quick intervention here. Stop, stop doing the stereotypes. It is killing a wide intervention.
