The Big Picture with Mustafa Darsot & ABDawjee–Sat,28.02.2026

0:00The Big Picture Program, an award-winning program with your weekly dose of insights, fresh perspectives, and alternative analysis. Tune in as AB DowG sheds light on various burning issues and brings forth a narrative that mainstream media tends to ignore. Informal, yet hard-hitting, humorous, yet authentic. The Big Picture Program, with AB DowG, now even bigger on Saturday mornings 11 a.m. and this is the Big Picture Broadcasting Simultaneously on Radio Islam and Radio Al-Ansar,

1:05Ahlin Wasalan, and How's it? Ramadan going smoothly? No headache? Stomach behaving? That's so wonderful because I have just discovered the formula for a nuclear bomb. Milk shake, Samusas and Halim. Yes, I tell you. A really dangerous combination, Mamu. Once that Gurgur starts in the stomach, chalaz, weapon of mass destruction, Habibi. As you may know, Gurgur is a medical term, meaning a gastrointestinal peroxym. See, who said the Big Picture was not an educational program? Right. Anyway, anyway, so let me stop there and tell you about the breaking news. You know, after Sayheri, I was preparing for today's program.

2:08And actually, I prepared quite a bit. Then the eyes started closing. So around 720, I decided to have a nap for an hour. And I said the alarm at 820, it rang. I woke up to the breaking news on Al-Jazira. Israel had attacked Iran. So first indulge me a little bit. Okay, let me continue with what I had prepared. And then I'll get to this huge, huge breaking news. So let me get back to what I had prepared. As I said, what was I speaking about? Right, so continuing with the medical team. Let me give you some advice. Yes, this is a free consultation. Whether these days is extremely hot. And therefore, people have a tendency to open their rosa with very cold drinks, juice, or milkshake and so on.

3:12Change that habit, Motah. Pat, a stomach was dosing the whole day, relaxing. And suddenly it is assaulted with this tsunami of icy cold liquids. What a shock, not nice at all. Today, break your fast with water straight from the tap, not the fridge, or even tea. Sounds very body like samosas and tea. Hey, Wena, what kind of knowledge. But wait, listen to this. If I can get it going here, in Japan, it is traditional to consume warm liquids like tea or soup with meals to aid digestion. Promote blood circulation and maintain bodily harmony, often avoiding cold drinks that may slow digestion. Common choices include green tea, known as sanchha, or hodjeja, and mishar soup,

4:18which I believe to help break down food. Common warm drinks aghari, which is strong green tea, as I said. And hodja, which is hot water and mishar soup, digestive benefits. Warm liquids are thought to support digestive enzymes, and increased metabolic rate compared to cold liquids, which may cause the stomach to reduce activity. And this is a cultural tradition. The practice reflects traditional Japanese and eastern medicine principles that emphasize balance, known as care, and believe extreme cold temperature foods or drinks damage health. And this is about water consumption. While some primarily in traditional contexts avoid large amounts of cold water during meals, warm water or tea is preferred for hydration. And in the restaurants, you will find that although traditional, some particularly in modern fast-paced restaurants may still be served cold water,

5:24but warm tea is often available or provided at the end of the meal. So, they are folks, and maybe that explains why most Japanese seem to be lean and fit and live well over the age of 100. So, Habibi, try this suggestion of having a warm drink, especially if you suffer from chronic gurugur. That was my free consultation for today. Next time, have your medical aid number ready, okay? Actually, I have abandoned having cold drinks myself for some time now. I don't have coldings, and it has positive benefits. People stop me and say, wow, Habibi, what happened? You don't look at day older than 30. You're going to the gym. I say, well, nahi, no, no, no, I drink tea. And before I can explain, they look at me strangely, like I had this roll and quickly walk away. But let's move away from food and speak about another

6:30aspect of the glorious month of Ramadan. As I said last week, we have to control all aspects of jealousy, anger, etc. We have to be very calm and chilled during this month. And maybe this exercise of restraint will change our character for the better through the next 11 months. It's like a training ground. Just as we exercise, we go to the gym to build a healthy body. So also exercising restraint, exercising restraint builds a healthy mind. Don't lose your temper. Okay, keep it in check. Like you hear the expression, shaytan is locked up. It means you must keep all your negative things, all the negative things of your character in jail, so to speak. And let me say this, some disgusting character, an MCP, Mael Chauvinus Pig sent me a

7:33thoroughly despicable WhatsApp message. Too terrible, Habibi. But I'll say it with you anyway. And the message says, a point of caution for women, eating a man's brains can also break the fast. This was so bad, absolutely unacceptable. If I find out who the brother is that sent me, this I'll give him a like a clap. Anyway, let's change gears. Well, sort of, but still about anger management. This modern age is wonderful and sometimes can be extremely annoying at the same time. Let me explain. The cell phone has changed how we communicate. The old days, in the old days, you had a phone plug to a telephone line on the wall. You call people and the answer. If they are in or you leave a message, very limited communication today, that small device in your hand has made the

8:37world very small indeed. Right now, you can speak to anyone, anywhere in the world. You can see them, you can send photos and videos, you can watch Alza Jazeera live. So many things and we take it for granted. This absolutely brilliant miracle of invention. But let me tell you what really, really frustrates me, makes me pull out my non-existent, existing hair. Speaking of which, Mata, have you noticed how as you get older, the hair on your head steadily disappears and the hair in your nose suddenly shoots out. Go to the barber and he will step what's left on top of your head and then he'll point that long, pointy scissors of his into your nose and ears and also the eyebrows start sprouting like danya and the barber tries to make them look decent. It's quite a hair-raising

9:41experience, a baby. Okay, so where was I? Right, let me see. Ah, yes, cell phones. What about it? I hear you say Mata, you're not paying attention, eh? Okay, yes. How annoying modern technology can be sometimes. So, for example, when you go online to check on something, a machine will tell you to prove that you are a human, eh? Before you proceed to the next step, please fill into the block the letters and numbers that you see. Of course, the letters and numbers are presented so that they are not easy to read. I take off my glasses, squint my eyes, put glasses back on again, fill the code in all these letters. Ah, sorry, there was an error. Here's the new batch, fill them in. Even worse, to make them, to actually try to make them out, I was checking on my new passport application, made me so fed up, so fed up putting those codes in, I decided right there not to do

10:48any more tours. But let me tell you of the worst case scenario, a first class magaj mari. You call a big company, maybe a bank or something, the voice recorded Auntie will say, thank you for calling Mocha Bank. For your security, this call will be recorded. At the sound of the beep, please use the keypad on your phone to fill in your ID number and press hash. Hey, what do you want my ID number for Auntie? Maybe I just wanted to know if my friend Imran, the accountant is in, so I can drop off some known Israeli cajur, my uncle just brought from Medina. So you put your ID number in and you forgot to press hash and this silence seemed like 10 hours later, the auntie will come back and say, sorry, you did not fill in your ID number, please do so now. You fumble again and get it right. Already 10 minutes have passed and you hope that you have

11:51sufficient air time. And then it happens, something that makes you want to jump off a high building. The auntie says, press one if you are a client or press to two if you are a new customer. Press three for incoming international payments. Press four for home loans. Press five for overdraft facilities. Press six for car division. Press seven for overdraft increase. Press eight for Bitcoin information. Press nine for debit order queries. Press 10. Press 10 to report a fraudulent transaction. And so on until you press 15. But there's no press 16 to check if Imran is in. So you don't then hear here. Please stay on the line for the next available consultant. You wait and wait and wait 20 minutes gone. The auntie comes back. Wow, then you think to yourself at last. Now I'll get through to Imran. And she says,

12:53please be patient. Your call is important to us. Please stay on the line. And then you hear this irritating music, ping, pong, pong, pong, pong, pong, ping, pong, and so on. By now you are wondering if you should just eat the kajud and not tell Imran about it. After five minutes, the auntie comes back. You are number five in the queue and you wait ping, pong, pong, pong, pong, pong. After another five minutes, you are number four in the queue. Then you want to scream, but it's a machine talking to you. After what seems like 100 hours you hear a new voice. Welcome to Mutia Bank. How can I help you? And you say, can you please put me through to Imran Mohammed? The sweet lady says, certainly, sir. And then you hear a ringing sound at last Imran. The ringing continues for a while. Then the voice comes on. The person you are calling is not at his desk at the moment.

13:57Please try again later. Right. So let's see what am I going to be speaking about today. Okay, so let's get to the breaking news. Some background first. Ever since Israel was created in 1948, its primary goal was to neutralize all opposition to its existence. Obviously people in the Arab world were vehemently opposed to what Israel had done. The ethnic cleansing of the Palestinians from their homes and land and also the killing of hundreds of thousands. From 1948 until now, that has continued nonstop with Gaza as the present situation of Israel's intention of continuing its murderous campaign. And so the big one was the bombardment of Iraq that has reduced it to a failed state. Lebanon has been attacked constantly. Syria was left

15:04in a mess. Hamas and Hisbullah and the Houthis mercilessly bombed. Gaddafi was neutralized and of course, we know that Libya is finished. So Israel largely achieved its objective. Finish off all opposition to its existence except one Iran. When Iran announced that it wanted to enrich uranium for peaceful purposes in order to run nuclear power stations, that presented Netanyahu with an excellent opportunity on a plate to declare that Iran wants to build a nuclear bomb. And he repeated this claim regularly over the past 33 years. Over and over and over again, Iran will have a bomb within a few years. Iran will have a bomb within months. And it will be a danger to the whole world and so on. Captain repeating it. Of course, America. Well, the American

16:12Congress, which is about completely captured by Israel, has largely been echoing Israel's claim. Every president spoke the same language as Netanyahu. And then we have Donkey Trump. Very briefly, in recent times, he's been speaking about finding a diplomatic solution, meaning that he doesn't really want war. Let's talk. Okay, let's talk. And from the other side of his mouth at the same time to keep Israel and Congress happy, he said, if talks fail, then we will take action. We will bomb Iran. He also sent a massive military amada to the Middle East to put pressure on Iran and also to show that he is serious. But you know, most commentators concluded that overall Trump wanted a deal rather than war.

17:13In fact, yesterday evening, I heard him saying that also, we are working on it. It looks like Iran is a bit hard, but we're working on it. I prefer a deal. All of all those things, which he has been repeating for the last couple of weeks. But in Tel Aviv, they never repeat, never wanted a deal, any kind of deal. They wanted to destroy Iran. That was the objective. So they concluded that the situation presents the present situation with the whole amada in the Middle East military buildup presents a perfect opportunity to move forward. If we attack Iran, America will be forced to come in and then things will escalate. In other words, basically, sees the opportunity, sabotage any kind of deal that Trump had in mind and so on.

18:13So exactly what Netanyahu waited over 33 years he achieved this morning. The big question is, will Iran respond? If it doesn't, then maybe things may de-escalate as has happened in June last year when Israel attacked Iran and Iran retaliated. And America came in and this whole thing lasted for about 12 days and then it was over. But the greater likelihood, as we've already noticed in the last few minutes is that Iran will respond if it only targets Israel, which it has been doing for the last half an hour. So if it targets when it's heavy missiles, then like before, things may carry on for a short while.

19:16But if Iran targets American military bases all over the Middle East, then Khalas, wholesale bombardment, like what happened to Iraq. Or could there be a third scenario? Will the Iranian people respond to some speech this morning? He had quite a speech this morning and he turned the whole thing. He made a brilliant speech addressing the American people basically and he wanted to show that this was a war that America initiated. He spelled out all the bad things that Iran had done over the past 40 years, you know, attacked American troops in Beirut and all that. He listed a whole lot of crimes against America. So he's making it look completely like an American war and Israel is just part of

20:21it. He spelled it all out brilliantly. It was a load of bull manure. Right, so the situation is very fluid and volatile and nobody, nobody can accurately predict the outcome. And the bottom line is that innocent people will be killed. So will this be the end of the government of Iran? And a new American and Israeli-led puppet regime put in place in Iran to serve America's and Israel's interests as we saw in the regime of the Shah. Too many questions and the answers will be unfolding over the coming days. The answers will be unfolding over the coming days. The world will be holding its breath.

21:22And I'll be holding my breath for now and cross over to Mustafa, that's sought to tell us about his view of the breaking news and other issues that made the headlines. Mustafa, the big picture is waiting for your comments. Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh and ahlan wa sallam. And before that, let me leave you. Let me leave you with my final comment. America bombed Iraq for Israel based on the lie that Iraq has weapons of mass destruction. And now America is bombing Iran based on the lie that Iran is developing a nuclear weapon. And the word is deja vu, history repeating itself. So with that, over to you, my brother Mustafa. Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh.

22:25Dear listeners, welcome to the big picture show. Well, maybe you let me tell you earlier than expected, but nevertheless, I guess I have to make up for that time. Okay, as you heard, dear listeners, of course, the the the war that you know has been talked about which Netanyahu has been pushing America to do on his behalf has started in the earlier this morning. But before I go on to talking about that, let's look at the development that took place this week, a very strange development of Modi's present to Israel. And of course, the the the hype around it, the pro man's, the sensation, the the whole the whole it's like, you know, pulling together a a a a a Hollywood propaganda masterpiece of lies and

23:26taking a Hollywood propaganda masterpiece of lies and fusing them together because at the end of the day, we all know that generally Hollywood is controlled by largely full, but the Hollywood industry are controlled by people who are of Jewish origin. Many of them are most of them are sinus because the whole narrative in Hollywood is that they want to make you know, they they say not subliminal messages of course, and open as well in many cases when especially when you see they mean they move his verifying Muslims and Arabs as the big terrorists. So this is the reality when you saw these two propaganda masterpieces of lies fusing into one and whether it was theater, whether it was a blaster, they mean or whether it was just you know boosting ratings with their own support basis. Now you must know, people are saying, oh, but I mean the thing is

24:28that you know, they are coming together to you know, to to standing against terrorism. I said, of course, terrorists will obviously not reveal themselves, but because at the end of the day, who are the masters of forceback operations, the Israelis and the current Indian regime. There's no word of lie about that. And of course, suddenly terrorists, every time something happens in India of some sort, first thing before before it goes viral Pakistan is to blame. Anything that happens around in Israel while we all know it was before the neighboring Arab states, right? Until then when Hamas, the Boogeyman came around, everything will be Hamas. Even if Hamas was not in that area, for example, in the West Bank, they'll blame Hamas. So we have to look at this whole procedure. And this visitor was definitely a major PR stunt

25:29to boost their ratings within their own constituencies and directs. Netanyahu is facing jail and ten years at this age of his in prison is not a, well nobody wants to go to prison in the first place, right? Where they'll be given VIP treatment in that in prison that's allowed a study, right? But to go to prison, the humiliation of going to prison is enough. And I've said this repeatedly before that as long as Israel is in the state of emergency, Netanyahu as the current sitting head prime minister, right? He is, he enjoys immunity. And as far as long as the state of emergency is there, he cannot be removed from office. He cannot be sent to jail. They cannot be elections. Now that state of emergency was lifted when the so-called Gaza ceasefire came about in

26:29October. Although we know it was not a ceasefire but, right? We know it was not a ceasefire because now Israel still attacks Gaza with impunity, right? However, however, the thing is that the problem is that he needed something else. So, so what has happened is that he needed to push for this war with Iraq. And of course, those seven trips that Netanyahu made in 13 months or just over 12 months to America to pest the to pest the Trump to do his bidding. We saw it obviously unfold in this morning. As soon as Israel attacked Israel, sorry, as soon as Israel attacked Iran this morning Iran announced a state of emergency. It closed its space. Okay, space closures can be 24 hours at a time, whatever. That was one thing, but it announced a state of

27:36emergency. So Israel is back into state of emergency. Netanyahu buys time. That time can be one day, one week, one month, one year, 10 years. It all depends on how long they're going to drag this war. And Netanyahu will always look for innovative ways even that say by tomorrow, the state of emergency is lifted. You look for innovative ways to invent another problem. All right, so you have to look at it from that point of view. As far as Modi is concerned, Modi has come to a point whereby India, yes, the rich, the super rich of India, you know, they look so well that they even make royalty look bad. And that political elite. And then remember something, there's India is not the only country that has a political elite that enjoys the major of controlling an economy. And basically,

28:42looting the coffers, it happens throughout the Muslim world. We can see that the Arab princes, it happens in those countries that are controlled by the militaries like Egypt, Pakistan. And yes, with Iran too, with the Ayatollahs and Namollahs, they have been very powerful, economically, with the IRGC, they control the economy. They run the economy. That's why the protests were happening from December because the people on the ground, the people who matter, suffer the most, not the political elite, especially with sanctions. Look at you in South Africa, with what's currently unfolding and all the sick nonsense at the Mandala Commission at the parliamentary hearings into what's happening at SEPS, the level of corruption, the high life of which known criminal masterminds can wrap the police choppers around their little fingers.

29:47Politicians around their little fingers, you've got a group of high-level MPs who are sitting in cabinet, who are linked to 10 opponents, to the criminal underworld, to caders and comrades. Unfortunately, this is the reality. We see it in South Africa as well. They are totally disconnected from society, enjoying all the majah, living in the good life while your people on the street are struggling day-to-day in downtrodden poverty. That's the reality. So you look at the same thing in India. India, they say India is booming. Yes, India is booming and here's big industry is making a lot of money and India is exporting fine. India is booming, yes. But what about the growing gap between literature, what about the alarming poverty levels? It is no secret that one third of India is

30:48living far below the line of poverty. But India has got time to promise what is real and who better than to do the dancing and the notary is molding himself. And what Modi said, he stood there, the Nessuddin said, Israel is the fatherland, but India is the motherland. Really? So, a person by name of Alon Mizrahi, I'm sure some of you who follow social media have come across the name Alon Mizrahi, right? He is a well-known political commentator. He is Jewish, Israeli as well. Now, he had wrote this about this week's visit between Modi to Israel.

31:49And I want you to listen carefully, right? I'm going to read it out to you. While the white colonial west that drank India's blood for centuries, prepared for the final war of annihilation against Iran, India's historic neighbor, the worthless or Modi, comes to the Israeli Nessud to receive a medal for being a good dog and help Israel carry out or carry on with its regional and global regalonomia. Why does he do that? Well, he is dumb, then your average door stop. We know that. But it is not just stupidity. It is also a brown inferiority complex. He wants India to be a superpower and counter-China because they feel humiliated by China's success. And he wants to overcome Pakistan and Islam across historic India. And he doesn't think of making India strong by taking care of its people. No, he wants a shortcut. He wants hundreds of millions of Indians to

32:55continue to learn in actual sewages and waste-based basins, have almost nothing to eat, have no normal infrastructure and we fed a diet of hate and ignorance served to them daily by India's billionaire media houses. Exploited, oppressed, divided, humiliated, no sense of a future and compensating with hate and fantasies of grandeur. China never chose this path. It always chose the betterment of its people and infrastructure over militarist fantasies that is once successfully decolonize itself a project which will only be completed when it takes Taiwan. It has already guaranteed its global edge for the next century, investing massively in railways and roads, schools and universities, hospitals and modern cities and making its air cleaner, its deserts smaller and making sure people are fed and made to feel a sense of

33:57promise and dignity. But India, no. India has a sickness of nationalism and fantastical thinking. It doesn't want to address its actual challenges and real problems or understand its place in a world that's eager to move to a post-colonial phase. Thank God, a million times for China and Iran. India has no clue about class struggle and anti-colonial struggle. It only ever obsesses about addressing its eternally fragile ego and making up for a terrifying sense of irrelevance, with fascist, thick, mega-lomania and rapidly its ignorant masses cannot even use properly on the battlefield as was clearly demonstrated in the short skirmish with Pakistan last year. I hope India can someday have a system not run by idiot-preasinous, painful slaves.

35:00And Israel, similarly, what is its own sickness of mega-lomania and fantastical thinking, dreaming of using India to become an empire and stop the rise of China and the global South in the name of the master race. A superiority complex that finds its perfect match in India's class and race in India's class and race, civil, traitor, Modi. Both India and Israel are in for a very rude Chinese awakening, alongside the alien mothership, the United States. So that sums up what the whole thing about Modi's visit was. It was a total thing, and at the moment India is now the largest buyer of arms from Israel. Yet, historically, India was always an ally of Palestine and always stood firm with Palestine. In fact, at one stage until the early 90s, there was even no

36:00diplomatic relations between India and Israel. Of course, at that time, it was the Congress party when those diplomatic relations were established, but when the BJP first came into office in the 90s and again, repeatedly in the 2000s and again, back in 2014, they have just taken their relations to another level. Now, coming to what's happening with Iran, we heard about this negotiations to make a deal. Trump says, I want to make a deal. Maybe Trump wanted to make a deal, but at the end of the day, he has a tool tied to actually make sure to see that this deal materializes. But at the end of the day, I was just talking to AB last night, that how can you make a deal, a political settlement, right? When you're using, when

37:02America, especially Trump, using a property developer tycoon, such as Steve Wittkov, who is not a politician, he's a property developer tycoon. And Jada Kushner, who is also a property model, not in his own line because he's obviously, you know, let's not to tell his big, daddy's business, right? You send in these two cultures to do a deal, to do the work of politics and diplomacy. How much of politics and diplomacy experience today have to actually make the deal happen? And of course, we saw this deal and these negotiations dragging on, dragging on, that was all smoke-set murders, it was a smoke-scape. At the end of the day, the nuclear story is an excuse. America wants to break Iran's economy and Israel is pushing for it very hard.

38:12That's why Trump was putting these two cultures to do the deal. As I said, that Iran's economy is in the hands of the Ayatollas and the Mullahs and the IRCG, G.C., it's military. And it's basically, in fact, there was a problem on Al Jazeera Finchpoint, earlier this month, whereby the whole thing was mapped out in explaining how Iran's economy works, especially since the revolution, not 1979. Now, they have these negotiations in which America is then sitting in the room, bullying them to say, listen, you guys have to let go, telling the Mullahs and the Ayatollas, you guys have to let go. Now, obviously, and I can't blame them for this, why must they concede to America's demands? Who the hell is America to bullying them into telling them how to run their economy and how to run their business? America is no humanitarian, and surely America

39:20being the capitalist center of the world does not practice economics and business fairly, but they want other countries to do so. That's why they keep on imposing sanctions. And of course, we keep on hearing about this thing, about the bomb. And in fact, and in fact, there was this thing I posted yesterday on social media, a video clip, which was a collage of six times over the years that Netanyahu spoke about the bomb. Right? So there were these six clips where each time he shows him, you know, talking about it, and it was put into collage. The first time in 1995, and I'm quoting his words, right? First time in 1995, Iran is weeks away from a nuclear bomb. The second time in 2006, Iran is

40:23always, sorry, Iran is days away from a nuclear bomb. The third time in 2012, Iran is weeks away from a nuclear bomb. Then again in 2014, Iran is days away from a nuclear bomb. Then in 2018, Iran is weeks away from a nuclear bomb. Then in 2025, Iran is days away from a nuclear bomb. Now, just last week, sorry, just this week, Steve Woodkov, who, as I said, is no politician, is a property developer, said that Iran is a week away from having a nuclear bomb. What? Who is he working for? On whose orders is he there? On whose instructions is he there? On the medical instructions or Israel's instructions? It's obviously there on the medical instructions, but is echoing Israel's narrative, Netanyahu's narrative, which obviously

41:25comes to the conclusion that this was the plan for the onset. Have these the big picture program, an award-winning program with your weekly dose of insights, fresh perspectives, and alternative analysis. Tune in as A, B, Dow G sheds light on various burning issues, and brings forth a narrative that mainstream media tends to ignore, informal yet hard-hitting, humorous, yet authentic. The big picture program with A, B, Dow G, now even bigger, on Saturday mornings, 11 a.m. That's what I was going to deal with in this. My apologies, and I don't know what happened early on the line that's cut off, and maybe it's a reverberation from Netanyahu and Transnotans.

42:29Yes, I'm here. I'm listening to you very intently, and I hope you don't mind. Let me just touch on something I spoke about earlier, and maybe you've got some views about that. About the third scenario, and you find that Donald Trump and Netanyahu are reading almost word for word from the same script. Some speech this morning. Yeah, some said, well, he told the Iranian people to rise up and overthrow the government, and he also said to the Iranian revolutionary god to stand down, meaning lay down your arms, and nothing will happen to you. So the question is, is this a case for civil war in a population of 92 million, some are pro-government and some against as we witnessed not long ago when they were massive demonstration in the streets of Tehran and other cities? So the next question is, and this is a small point, attacking any country

43:36would require permission from the United Nations. Well, you know how useless that organization is, it should just pack up and go home. What about international law? Well, what about it, Habibi? It died a very long time ago, and most of all, I want to put to you something that I was discussing with my dear friend Idris Kamisa this morning, he phoned me, and we said it's very, very sad that the Arab countries are mere spectators to this unfolding scenario. And what about the wider Muslim Ummah? What is their role? Very, very sad situation indeed. So of course, I mean the thing is that, and then top of it having this Ramadan, I mean, of course the people of Gaza have endured horrors for various Ramadan, especially since October 7, 2023, but the thing is, and we could see if there was no action or silence during that time,

44:45and obviously you're not going to expect anything now as well. And these are things to learn from, the sad realities you can't count, and look at also compounding the motives of fighting each other, look at what's happening currently, and just yesterday the Pakistani said that we are currently in a state of war, or in an act of war, what Afghanistan, right? In the sparsely, they bombed the targets in Afghanistan killing various people, several people, etc. What was the, what the hell is going on here? And the thing is that, you know, looking at, when we look at the build-up and the hype here, just in the early hours of this morning, the al-Mani foreign minister said that peace is within reach, as Iran has agreed to no nuclear material stockpile, right? And then of course, a few hours later, the bombing started. Then, you know, you try to look at the send-in, of course, what I did see on Al-Jazeera when I pointed on it on the CNN and BBC that the bombing started,

45:53when I went to Al-Jazeera website in the morning, it still never updated to breaking news, and I think I must have been about, yeah, about two minutes later, updated to breaking news. But what I did see there, there's an article which I did not click into, but obviously I did the headline. It said that that Marco Rubio is great taking an urgent trip to Israel, because Trump is not happy at the progress of the U.S. Iran talks, right? Then, human theatre, the breaking news got updated, and I couldn't find that link anymore. But so that already tells you that, yes, this was all pre-plant, and of course, it had to get, they had to get, America couldn't just start this war, what all that military build-up, what all that, what armament they, that they had, they couldn't just go and start attacking Iran because it would have finished negative repercussions for Trump back home. So, is there, starts it as the usual attack dog, and of course, naturally, as expected,

47:00Iran was going to retaliate, which they are doing currently so, and the Americans are now getting involved. At what scale, what extent, as you said, what they were telling the IRGC, and you know, looking to create a civil war scenario, well, that, again, that's an unsaid reality. Civil war, we saw what civil war did to Iraq, we saw what it did to Libya, we saw, I mean, it's going to happen here. It's just too much, as really speaking, the Umer is totally divided, and you know what, it's just that one can be at a lot of words, one can go on and painting at, but it's not going anywhere, just to share reality. Yeah, most certainly, man, and I think when I was listening to Trump's words, the way he said that Iran is a threat to the entire world, it supports terrorist organizations internationally, and so on. When I heard that, I thought to myself, perhaps the greatest threat to the entire world

48:07is the two rogue states, the America and Israel. I think on that note, we can end the programme, we've come to the end last minute left here, and we just pray in inshallah that there'll be peace in the world, and that these two entities that have been responsible for so much of mayhem, so much of death and destruction will finally meet their end in inshallah. Okay, you got in the last wet there, is he? All right, inshallah.
