Today on Sekulow we discuss the latest developments as Israel and Hamas stand on the brink of war. Hamas has launched hundreds of rockets into Israel and Israel has responded. Israel Defense Forces' (IDF) defensive effort is being called Operation "Guardians of the Wall." 500+ rockets have been fired by Hamas terrorists in an organized fashion into Jerusalem – Israel's capital. Israel has a missile defense system "Iron Dome" which is highly effective but is being overwhelmed by highly coordinated attacks. As we discuss the latest developments with our team consisting of legal, military, and foreign policy experts, we are joined by ACLJ Senior Advisor for National Security and Foreign Policy Ric Grenell.

Breaking news on the brink of more Thomas launches hundreds of rockets into Israel, and Israel responds live from Washington DC line phone lines are open for your questions right now: 1-800-684-3110 familiar across Ashkelon, the city in southern Israel because the sirens will go off and that you'll hear a lot of interceptions by Israel's missile defense system. The iron Dome.

But the Israeli military tells Fox today. It's about 90% effective. It's not perfect and no chief counsel for the Center for Law and Justice will broadcast was not called up guardian of the walls walls walls of Jerusalem 500 rockets were launched at Israel since Monday evening. I've got my uses in four years but my red alert app on my phone is now up and if there rockets being launched during the broadcast. You'll hear go off.

I will leave it on for this because you need to know what's going on an average average rocket fire is one for every three minutes. What's interesting is the mosses boasting that they launched 137 rockets within five minutes, which means iron dome which is very effective cannot handle that amount of incoming they say this was their biggest rocket attack yet but Thomas is also bragging that they have a lot more a well Carl Smith I think is important. Explain to her audience what iron Dome is our dynamism missile interceptor system is designed by the Israelis and the United States together and when I run a rocket or missile is fired toward your area. They fire missiles that go up and and attack explode the missiles before they can hit is a very effective system normally is about 90% effective on bringing down incoming missiles and rockets. And again, as you indicated what I mosses trying to do is overwhelm the system by firing hundreds of rockets so that the chances are some of the rockets will get you and indeed they are. We paid casualties and Israel has been true while women are dead because of his rocket explosion.

Israel has responded as it is called Guardian of the walls and they have it more than 130 targets in Gaza. Israel's mobilize 5000 reserve proof which is moderate mobilization right now but there in meetings in Jerusalem right now with her friend Benjamin at the now with the prime minister mosses also use the new rocket in its attacked in once it reached Jerusalem called in a 120 name for a commander killed by the IDF Israeli Defense force during the Gaza war 2014 BA 120 is said to have a range of about hundred and 20 km which goes about 140 miles west is it also reported that weapon is probably technology from Iran yeah yeah they have never been able to successfully develop the rocket with that kind of arrange and we know Moran provides sophisticated guidance systems to Hezbollah's rockets and missiles at him and probably move more than likely, they are providing additional technology to Hamas to increase the range and I tell you what Jay look for a rent.

Also start providing them with more sophisticated guidance systems because right now they sort of blob the rockets at Israel with a guidance system because she target specific areas.

But it's interesting because Iran is an equal opportunity terrorists provider that they they don't distinguish between Sunni and Shia, which is a big divide in the Muslim world. They will fund both the Hamas and has bought absolutely certain. Ron is a forward-looking adversary. And certainly there are internal disputes within the Muslim community but are wrong sees its long-term enemy as Israel and the United States. And so it is prepared to coalesce behind Sunnis in order to achieve its long-term objective. Sorry for the radio audience were going to a break for audience on TV and social media.

But here's the bottom line we could not do our work without your support, we remain committed to protecting your religious and constitutional freedoms and then remains our top priority, especially now during these challenging times. The American Center for Law and Justice is on your side, you're already a member. Thank you. Well, this is the perfect time to stand with us. ACLJ.org where you can learn more about her life changing become a member today NACLJ only one. A society can agree that the most vulnerable. Is there any hope for that culture to survive. And that's exactly what you are saying the American Center for Law and Justice defend the rights of life, we created a free and powerful publication offering a panoramic view of the ACLJ's battle for the unborn life will show you how you are personally publication includes a look at all major ACLJ were fighting for the rights of pro-life activists ramifications.

40 years later Planned Parenthood's role in what Obama care means to discover the many ways your membership is empowering the right question free copy of mission life today online/joining us again just coming to the broadcast operation Guardian of the walls is underway in Jerusalem more than 500 rockets have been launched at Israel since Monday evening. Israel is responded. Hamas both on the launching the hundred 37 rockets within a five minute period that, by the way does impact the effectiveness of iron dome which is the as is was described as the missile defense system that Israel has its price.

Biscuit yet hundred 37 rockets coming in at four. Timex difficult Rick Cornell Senior advisor to the ACLJoe former acting director of national intelligence and ambassador Jerry Rick what you read on the situation. Remind people that we had. See rocket attacks or terrorist attacks coming from Mexico or Canada how the Americans respond out with the American government respond. We would be equivocal for more than a couple of minutes before we would stop.

So let's put it in perspective on what's happening and make sure that were supporting Israel there. There's a lot of talk about what goes on territories, who's in control, and this binding ministration has just brought those leaders to the table. Given the money we've included them like never before. At the US and look what they're doing in response there, certainly not making it easy for themselves and let's also remember that they were offered a very good deal under the Abraham courts by Jerry Kushner and his team and the Palestinian leaders rejected all of that and so their response after rejecting all sorts of peace deals. Economic deals has been now to resort back to terror you.

It's interesting here Rick because Iran is also at the table and what Smith can address this. Col. Smith must use the new rocket. I said this in the first thing the broadcast.

It's called in a 120 its name for commander killed by the IDF during the Gaza war of 2014 BA white 2120 said have a range of about hundred 20 km roughly 40 mouth, but west reports when others verified yet but these came out of Iran right right that's all indications are that that's where they came from the technology to extend the range of the rockets.

Keep in mind these are very deadly sophisticated rockets but the rockets not missiles. And just like Iran is provided guidance technology firm up for Hezbollah's missiles and rockets. The indications are there, providing technology to Hamas now so they can extend the range because a 43, 44 mile range on the rocket Hamas up until now is not been able to pull that off yet another getting Rick there able to attack Jerusalem.

In fact, rockets landed less than 4 miles from our office in Jerusalem yesterday so and David Benjamin who is our senior counsel. There is also an idea by Col. for as a judge advocate general lawyer for the international law of war was on our broadcast, as was Ronnie Lee be our budget director general and they both said that Jerusalem was literally under siege yesterday and that ups the ante here significantly, politically under siege. Certainly the ayatollah on the entire Iranian regime celebrate what we seen this on the ayatollah's twitter over the last week he has been cropping up the Palestinian leaders and really articulating the Israel hate right to his followers.

This is something that if you look at over the last week he has been.

There's no question that they are in support of what's going on, both materially and psychologically, and so we need to know exactly ties and I did ministration needs to understand that they are the ones who brought the Palestinian leaders in the Iranian regime leaders to the table. If we're going to start having engagement and we need to benchmark whether or not engagement works clearly when they resort to terrorist attacks like this. The engagement practices from the I did ministration are backfiring. They are not working. The money that we been giving them access and the diplomatic access that we have been giving them the Europeans clearly is not working Jake Sullivan in the national Security Council need to look at all these tangential facts and realize that isolation is what works is so you also have a situation that 30 warning shots were fired by US warships at 13 Iranian attack boats targeting guided missile submarine Georgia and its escort of seven military visit vessel so that's in the Straits of Hormuz Harry, you've got a multi-MEP. Please understand this, we got a multi-level multijurisdictional conflict brewing right now were actually underway in the Middle East absolutely and it's imperative to keep in mind that a Ron along with the Palestinians have essentially rejected the Abraham accordance analog continues to expand its aggression through allies in the Middle East and so I think this move by the US Navy is an important move, but it underscores I think the risk in caving to a Ron by caving to a Ron by providing them with financial resources we are fueling terror ultimately money here right now on a radio audience. You can hear red alerts. That means right now there missiles being launched or have been launched against Israel back I will know where it has been ingested. That usually takes minute forays out so it's near the Gaza border is where those are coming up. I haven't had a play that Rick ice to keep that on our radio broadcasts all the time. For decades, and then the last four years I did not have to use it because this wasn't happening. So a change in administrations in a change of policy has direct consequences for the people in Israel there is no question about and you know I keep J talking I did ministration has been given money to the Palestinian leaders they have engaged with them. They brought them again and look what the response is I don't understand how our leaders in Washington cannot see whether or not the engagement policies work or not it's it's just beyond comprehension that they cannot see that it gets worse as you provide money to the Palestinian Authority and as you engage with Iran. This is something that we need to articulate in the Israeli certainly are feeling weak. You know it's interesting because Andrea is running for a Democrat, ran for President is running for governor of a few Mayor of New York City said, I'm standing with the people of Israel who are coming under bombardment attacks and condemned the most terrorist the people of New York City will always name of the brothers and sisters in Israel who faced down terrorism and persevere early on, Omar, however, of course, by shucking here. Many will tell you Israel has a right to defend itself the safety and security but are silent on when the Palestinians have those rights to until we defend the rights of Palestinians just as we do Israelis leave no leg to stand on when it comes to justice, or peace. Can anybody tell me what rocket Israel launched into Gaza before the started or was it Hamas launching into Israel, which it always is a must use an excuse of an issue in Jerusalem on a neighborhood to start an air bombardment a missile fire rocket fire should say, to be precise, so there is no moral equivalence elaborate. There is no question and there is no moral equivalency as it is your is your same. Also, let's remember. Here a lot of criticism certainly from congressional leaders like you don't mind that the Palestinian authority. The leaders and the Palestinian territories don't have the same equipment as Israel. We constantly hear that, but let me just make one point the Palestinian Authority does have the ability to have a system in place that is just like the job and the system is don't fire on Israel and you won't be fired upon by his there is no question that you can be secure. You can you can be assured that no one is going to fire rockets into your territory. If you don't start first Israel is not the aggressor here and the Palestinian authority. Leaders need to understand that they have the ability to ensure their people safety and it's called don't launch the rockets first W. and as is usual with the Palestinians. Rick no good deed goes unpunished that the backdrop of this was there's a pending court case about neighborhoods that you mentioned and East Jerusalem and who the land actually belongs to and was also Jerusalem Jerusalem day holiday in Israel present a main prime minister and that Yahoo postpone the court proceedings in order to keep peace and rerouted the parade away from the Palestinian neighborhood and yet that was not good enough. Hamas gives them a one hour deadline to remove all policing troops from the area. A deadline that they knew Israel could not meet. And then when the deadline passed, they started launching rockets at Jerusalem, the instigator is no doubt about on the lookout for doing your break now for those that are watching on a social media TV or any other application were you watching the video we got a very special you want to see this video report that we just put together.

Stay tuned for that dynamic that Rick Cornell is in the stay with us for another segment. As we continue to address this unfolding situation that's going on in Israel right now. Don't forget support the work of the ACL objectives is broadcast on their hips is fighting keep you informed ACLJ.org would stay tuned folks share this being on Facebook only when a society can agree that the most vulnerable and is there any hope for that culture to survive.

And that's exactly what you are saying when the American Center for Law and Justice, defend the rights of life, we created a free and powerful publication offering a panoramic view of the ACLJ's battle for the unborn, called mission will show you how you are personally publication includes a look at all major ACLJ were fighting for the rights of pro-life activist ramifications of Roe V Wade, 40 years later Planned Parenthood's role in the Washington Street and what Obama care means to the pro-life many ways. Remember is empowering the right question free copy mission life today online ACLJ/challenges facing Americans for substantial time and are now free to soar.

Constitutional rights are under attack is important to never stand with the American Center for Law and Justice ACLJ on the front lines protecting your freedoms defending your rights in courts in Congress and in the public arena and we have an exceptional track record of success.

But here's the bottom line we could not do her work without your support, we remain committed to protecting your religious and constitutional freedoms and then remains our top priority, especially now during these challenging times.

The American Center for Law and Justice is on your side, you're already a member. Thank you, are not well this is the perfect time to stand with us ACLJ.org where you can learn more about our life changing become a member today ACLJ just joining us even got 500 missiles of rockets fired into Israel since yesterday evening. Israel has responded. They responded by also operating a new operation called operation guardian of the walls and walls. Of course the walls of Jerusalem rockets are landing in Jerusalem will a number of them landed within 4 miles of our office.

The average rate of rocket fire is one every three minutes did launch Moscow so that they could launch 137 rockets within a five minute period which puts operation iron Dome at its maximum capacity. Rick we just got Rick Cornell's with us. Of course our senior advisor here at at at the ACLJ our team. We just got a tweet from your friend Sarah from Iran and this is what he says the attack on Alaska Mosque in the killing of worshipers is the greatest evidence of the races criminal nature of the usurping entity. They don't like saying the word Israel, which has always been the main cause of insecurity and stability, instability in the region. There is only one fair solution to the Palestinian issue, which is to refer it to the will of the people of this planet referred to a popular referendum. Iran, of course, had to get their two cents into this because not only they supply the weapons therefrom there propelling their the fuel to propagate this. They're trying to debate they conflate issues of security internally and Israel in the neighborhood at the Alaska Mosque where the Palestinian Authority was asking for the Israeli security to be removed, which was is absurd.

If you ever been up there that would be absurd to me just put it that way but now you got Iran right in the middle of this read to you what I thought was the leader of the Iranian regime what he or days ago. He said the Palestinian fighters must continue their legitimate morally correct fight against the Serbian regime until it is forced to submit to a referendum being conducted just hours ago, is tweeting about Israel not being a real country so I don't understand why we are allowing this type of rhetoric to go on Twitter for one why are we allowing this to be at the UN and to serve legitimately on UN committees.

This violates basic Twitter rules. This violates what the left always talks about in terms of welcome culture and safe spaces but yet they are allowed to run for office is at the UN. This is clearly being spanned and placed by the Iranian regime and I also want to be very clear that when we talk about the Iranian regime. It's not the exactly people the good people who are being really nice by their regime. We have to remember that in the United States. We cannot give aid and comfort to the Iranian regime when it continues to put people there basic.

There basic freedoms at risk. These Iranian regime individuals are on twitter, but Iranian people are not allowed so not a lot it's interesting because we we know of people including former Pres. states banned from Twitter, and yet the Ayatollah who is wrecking havoc and killed millions and expresses his people disc is given a free will rain a minute didn't fan in Washington. This should show the absurdity of somewhat big Tex allowing here, I mean this is that is when you think about that for a moment is really absurd. While there's always a double standard.

There J and look I love to get Rick's thoughts on this because there's clearly a deeper divide inside the Democrat party on this issue of whether or not working to stand by our ally Israel we mentioned earlier in the broadcast and strong comments from firms in Democrat member Sen. Rosen, Congressman Hoyer, Congressman Meeks, but then you had the squad coming out and trying to draw this moral equivalency. I know I have my own theories on this project. I think it it it lends itself to a question of who is the Biden administration listening to Rick mentioned that there still giving funds. I think it's got a clear indication that the squad has the ear of the White House more than then some of these more reasonable members of the Democrat party is Rick. I maybe I could maybe I could ask that of you. If I could get it. Is that your read of this. Do you think that that the White House is listening to the squad members at this point they doesn't know what to do because they view all foreign policy issues.

As to mastic policy and that's that that's the big mistake date they cannot talk tough on China to continue to say Russia Russia Russia they cannot call out the Iranian regime because what they're trying to do is placate the far left of their party. So yes, Elian Mark all of the squad members are the ones who are scaring Jake Sullivan and Nancy Pola, Joe Biden, Harris, the silence and they want to let this play out.

You do have people like that.

Let's remember Sen. Bob Menendez who is a tough is member of the Democratic Party. He's an expert on foreign policy and so I think that they should be listening to Bob and some of their other leaders that clearly have stepped out like Andrew Yang you are warning I did.

I read Andrew Higgins tweet which will be to get this is instead with the people of Israel who are coming under bombardment attacks and condemn the monsters. The people of New York City will always stay with her brothers and sisters in Israel who faced down terrorism and personally I like calling them the squad. By the way out. They walked that's like giving it access like propping it up as if there something limiting what they are radical leftist members of Congress that have an anti-somatic anti-Israel agenda. That's just the start so Iliana Omar or when I'm losing the name of the other one but Iliana Omar kinda leads the pack yet leads the pack everything they say is good to be anti-a lot of the Palestinians have an iron that I got a question what is a must stop firing indiscriminate rockets at dead civilians in Israel that may be a good way to start your your national security have to worry about that. The last four years. Gaza you have to worry about Israel shooting in rockets in response to your rockets know you and you know why because it was a leader in the White House that had a clear policy and it people like Rick Cornell and Mike Pompeo implementing those policies so it didn't get pushed around Sprint what Disraeli said was right when you're dealing with adversaries like this.

They don't understand one thing power that diplomacy can be powerful. One is behind that diplomacy is strength and Rick what I think is lacking right now is any clear policy and strength. Both of them are missing. Let's also remap the classes in his 15th year is for your term. They haven't had elections here so they don't happily jet it meant leadership in place, the Palestinian people are not being well served by the Palestinian authority leadership, and that's what's going to change the American policy should be get your act together and have elections they can't get much worse. I know some people think that it can. I don't think it actually can.

You might have a conversation about what the future is and what's working and what's not working but I like your point about the iron they do have the ability to have a system that is justice good as the iron garment that is don't fire first and then you will be protected. I mean I've been there on the border and watch the rockets come in over our heads and the Israeli response which was then Blackhawk helicopters like Blackhawk helicopters with rocket precise and then Israeli jets of the Israeli Air Force coming up as I've seen everything from me with this. We appreciated that thinking you heard is a red alert system that says another rocket has been launched in Israel to be met on during this broadcast so you can hear they stay with us for the next half hour. The broadcast your support of the ACLJ makes all the difference. We could do any of this produce this program, which is breaking news deep analysis experts like Rick Cornell and our team here. We can't do that without your support ACLJ.org that's ACLJ.org support the work of the American Center for Law and Justice. We appreciated more different from we are (ACLJ's been on the frontline protecting your freedom is defending your rights in court in Congress and in the public arena. The American Center for Law and Justice is on your side. If you're already a member. If you're not well this is the perfect time to stand with us ACLJ.org where you can learn more about our life-changing work, member today ACLJ live from Washington DC and Justice Jay Sekulow farm to say that way because who wants to hear that but it's true. Israel is now launched operation guardian of the walls and that's because more than four, 500 rockets have been launched at Israel since Mike primarily from Gaza, so that's where it's come from there, averaging about one every three minutes but Hamas is boasting that the commodes are hundred 37 rockets for a five-year period which overwhelms the iron Dome defense system. Hamas also says that they are prepared to increase their weaponry which we know that they have in a 120, which is out of looks like I ran at the same time US warships fired 30 warning shots at 13 Iranian tax tech boats targeting guided missile submarine Georgia and its escorts of military vessels in the Straits of Hormuz.

Now that they said 30 warning shots were fired and then in another act by our United States Navy.

They seized a group of weapons aboard a ship in the Arabian Sea bound for Yemen. It appears in those weapons including not only machine guns, assault weapons, but also anti-aircraft and tank to tank were captured in the Arabian Sea. Looks like they're going to the rebels guess and there's a picture of it on the screen. And guess who was the manufacturer of those weapons, Russia and China was what does that tell us what we're having is all happening at the same time folks in a very small region of the world and since the Presidential election. We have the confluence of our adversaries think about you got Russia and Chinese weapons on the ship for Moran bound for Yemen to the hoodie rebels the rebels, who by the way target civilians in Saudi Arabia and and of course you got Hamas targeting civilians in Israel itself. That's the thing about this conflict individual that is so telling. While Israel does everything possible to avoid civilian casualties, Hamas deliberately target civilians and Hamas. Just today told Egyptian officials are trying to broker that they have no interest in negotiations or and that all previous agreements about peace with Israel have now been abandoned.

I mean, this is like an epidemic of insanity has settled upon the Middle East and again it's a perception I think of weakness in the new US administration. We policy the policy they think we will not response to respond strongly and guess what, we probably won't probably not Iliana.

Omar is really airstrikes killing civilians by the way that sound going off right now is another attack, another rocket launch that is relentless.

Just moments ago that's going on right now is called red alert I have in my phone have another use of the last careers that are reactivated from the last four years. But guess what the new sheriff in town is really not corralling the West and the wild West is with the Middle East unfortunate is like right now. Iliana Omar said that is really airstrikes kill civilians in Gaza. It's an act of terrorism.

Palestinians deserve protection. Unlike Israel missile defense programs are designed domes. They don't exist to protect Palestinian civilians. It's unconscionable to condemn these attacks on the week of need, which is a Muslim celebration.

That's interesting, except if Hamas did not launch the rockets. You won't be getting them in return. In this moral equivalency is absurd and loving you mentioned that with some of the churches that are going on right now, but this is another example of this coming out of a member of Congress all the Palestinians don't have iron Dome don't fire rockets into your neighbor might be a good way to start. Don't launch rockets and missiles into your neighbors because of a land dispute in a court in East Jerusalem. Any excuse to launch you know what though. When the Israeli start naming operations, usually not a good sign for the Palestinian Authority Nestlé not taking phone calls Of assignments are right now. 1-800-684-3110 phone lines are open, 1-800-684-3110 have your voice heard on the air today thousands of you're watching right now on Facebook. Thousands of you are watching right now on YouTube. Here's my wanted. If you're on Facebook, but that share but no as you click share. She liked the post, but share as more people see this all day, hundreds of thousands of people see it all day. If you are watching on YouTube simply easy way to support this thumbs up, which are subscribed ritually. Notification may be brand-new to the do this every day. I should get the thumbs up help. More people is how the algorithm business works right back with more on second challenges facing Americans or substantial time and are now in freedom sword constitutional rights are under attack more important than ever to stay with the American Center for Law and Justice ACLJ on the frontline protecting your freedoms defending your rights and courts in Congress and in the public arena and we have an exceptional track record of success. But here's the bottom line we could not do our work without your support, we remain committed to protecting your religious and constitutional freedoms in the van remains our top priority, especially now during these challenging times.

The American Center for Law and Justice is on your side, you're already a member. Thank you.

Not well this is the perfect time to stand with us ACLJ.where you can learn more about her life changing, member today ACLJ only one. A society can agree that the most vulnerable invoice is, is there any hope for that culture to survive. And that's exactly what you are saying when you stand with the American Center for Law and Justice, defendant the right to life, we've created a free powerful publication offering a panoramic view of the ACLJ's battle for the unborn, called mission will show you how you personally. Publication includes a look at all major ACLJ were fighting for the rights of pro-life activist ramifications 40 years later Planned Parenthood's role in the history and what Obama care means to discover many ways. Your membership is empowering the right question. A free copy mission life today online/Washington DC and checking with the invented to see what the reaction is movie a Andrew Yang statement Emilio and Omar is what are there any other Democrats coming out everything that is not a member of Congress worth supporting Israel what what are you hearing. Yet there are a few J, I mean first of all on the Republican side of the aisle. I think it's important to acknowledge that some of the stalwarts on this.

It has spoken out Sen. Rubio leader McCarthy Congressman Jordan and a whole line of others coming quickly to the defense of Israel as the United States of America should, on the other side jamming. Let's just put it candidly, there is a deep divide on Capitol Hill. Inside the Democrat party you had Senators Rosen and Menendez come out strongly in favor of Israel in their right to defend themselves in Congressman meeting Congressman Hoyer do the same thing but then J you did have Johan Omar receded to leave Alexandria across your contest and others to me.

Their criticism of Israel and this what was most market J is that they were upset with Pres. Biden for not coming out and condemning Israel and we have seen largely silence from the administration. So to me it signals that while there's a divide on Capitol Hill. Inside the Democrat party I'm not so sure there's a divide down the street. It seems to me that Pres. Biden. It is listening to receded to lead over Marco Rubio is that let's listen to receded to Lucas. Here's what she said on MSNBC yesterday. We need to stop and look at our own country enabling act with billions of dollars every year being issued to Israel even though they are promoting racism and dehumanization what you read what she said just heard him read it. She said we need to stop and look at the fact that her own country. This United States is enabling it with billions of dollars every year being issued to Israel to mention the billions of dollars going to the Palestinian Authority, which is up in the coffers of of Mahmoud Abbas and not the Palestinian people, even though they are promoting racism and and dehumanization, I want to think about this for moment who launched what into how did this start winning the first rocket come from, but came from Iran actually came from came from Iran that was shipped not interdicted not stopped as he just did in the Straits of Hormuz and then what happened. Those were only made by China and Russia, and then they end up in the hands of Hamas, who now see that there's a legal dispute over a eight probably 5 miles of property in East Jerusalem. That's in court and they say let's start a war over it, and Israel's Israelis supper first day and then as the Israelis do they name it soon as they name the operation, buckle your seatbelts folks, but this idea that Israel is dehumanizing. They are taught. Hamas is targeting civilians their own civilians use hospitals and schools as launching point for the rockets and I know Logan will talk about this yesterday with you know that's the church. The evangelical church woke on this wake up with what you need to do and actually know the facts you actually see what's actually happening on this other, we should touch on brief finish of his drippings up on the already there. No, this is just breaking right now. The Hamas is put on statement because they do there for them. You think of these organizations as you press releases liberally.

A press release claiming that today's is Hamas threatens rocket barrage of Tel Aviv. If Israel airstrikes continue and here's what they said this is coming from 24 that which is Israeli news and other Hamas military wing spokesman issued a threat to Israel Tuesday say the group could fire a rocket at Tel Aviv big what they added with exceeded what happened in Aeschylus is what they will do so Artie Freddie more if if is perceived now threatening Televisa result. So you got Jerusalem, which is the governmental center and the heart of the understand Tel Aviv driven that we can put off telling us like the New York City Betsy is wasteland and status limits in the old town.

It's also said it's the spiritual capital that Tel Aviv is where the people of the people I mean not the people of the Jews only do but Tel Aviv is like New York City and I mean honestly smaller but west these kind of statements show this escalation absolutely. This has the potential to probability is going to be a long conflict because Hamas is Artie said they're not interested in stopping it or negotiating they could. They are continuing to target civilians and congresswomen to leave this on my last nerve.

She complains about billions of dollars going to Israel doesn't mention the billions of dollars that only go to the Palestinians, but there equally stolen and put into the bank accounts of the Palestinian leaders and in the meantime we gave the Democrats under Prez Obama gave a ran billions of dollars and were about to give them billions more with the renewal of the JCP away and what does Iran do they help provide the missiles and the rockets were Hamas and Hezbollah. Both somehow that's all her radar. He reminded though for history sake is not here today the story to story a little history. The history of the Arab-Israeli conflict. Let's start way back go back to biblical times doesn't usually end so well for the adversary begun second to modern times.

I'm trying to think of one war were at the end of the war Israel surrendered. Let me think. None. Every time they were attacked by air forces Israelis prevailed since 1948. Now here's the problem Hamas in the end I read this to the allies of Israel about the same forces that attacked Israel in 68 and 73 Yom Kippur war. They are now Israel's allies real allies close economic allies security allies military allies, so this is a zero-sum game Harry for Hamas they know it they do not prevail absolutely so Israel has faced, literally decades of attacks by its enemies. And every time Israel has prevailed, in part because they are led, at least in spirit like what moisture Diane said during one war that the road that leads from Cairo to Tel Aviv leads from Tel Aviv to Cairo and so I think at the end of the day the Palestinian people are being ill served by their leaders, who continue to lead them down a garden path of attacking Israel, and Israel will respond. Israel has a backbone. Unlike the Biden administration wonder how this play me, I'm thinking of from a military strategy standpoint and up and was something they don't win this war. I mean Israel's mobilize nothing 5000 reserves which were Israel's nothing gold countries in the Army and women, children children, but conflict must've started this absolutely pointless and in their they are ignoring their own peoples prosperity as well as their safety and in actuality I don't think they they care there their own initiative. Their initiative is during this change of US administrations and all this going on the world they're looking for new support and new sympathy which they will get from the left-wing people not only in the US, but around the world, but is pointless. They cannot prevail in this they know they cannot prevail.

It is almost like they're only on a suicide mission. Although the leaders of Hamas, of course, will try to defend and protect themselves.

But you're right Jake. This is pointless. Israel will prevail. Thankfully goodness and justice will prevail through Israel you know and here's the other thing about the nation of Israel. Every conflict in which they been engaged has been one of self-defense. They have never been the aggressor. They don't go out in far missiles at other countries or the Palestinians they try to keep the peace and they will respond and respond.

Fortunately, when their attack, but they've never gone out as the aggressiveness always in self-defense something else they do lose true blue came to the question about Iran getting a nuclear device may take something similar is travel to Israel is dependent Israel and international tribunals getting analysis are not getting a place else because I don't know many more tickets have been to the international criminal court. The Hague on behalf of his I have say this Iran will not be getting a nuclear weapon to have me billions this administration gives him it will not happen you think the rockets are something you seem right now. Can you imagine you can imagine I wouldn't wish that on anybody because the Persian people, Iranian people are good people, smart people would contribute a lot to civilization. They don't deserve this and as Rick mentioned earlier, it's this escalate. They are escalating the tension in the entire region, Logan.

It's not just Hamas in Gaza is the Straits of Hormuz it's the Straits of I mean it's it's Iran itself in there-their activity while they're supposedly negotiating with states its boats on route to Yemen with Russian and Chinese weaponry, all within the same region, all within the same zone and that's where the church needs to wake up and understand what's really going on. I know it's politically correct. Say all I pity the Palestinian plight and I just feel sorry for the people they got leadership that is horrible and it's been horrible for 60 years terrorist regimes in their country now is an organization we work with the people we been literally there on the ground we've we've done a lot of work there so I don't pretend that we don't over talking about when it comes to that, he said, like the progressive church. A lot of good churches that do still preach. You know a definitely a pro-Israel point of view, but we are seeing the become less and less either Israel's no longer a topic just like life is no longer a topic or it's taking a completely different he said a pseudo-fake humanitarian point of view that supposed to look like were of applicable how good we are much better things are that we do. But reality is really bowing to terrorism. Don't know if it's a bunch of ignorant people. So here you to be ignorant and were not taking a break if you're watching this on Facebook or anywhere social media applications, so stay tuned. We got a lot more. So Logan literally share with their friends that really you're on Facebook like you to call us now to get on the line only when a society can agree that the most vulnerable invoice.

Would that be considered an act of war against Israel. Not not technically, although it is certainly an act of aggression. I would think you would certainly an act of aggression. I mean Israel's got justification for defensive actions or rent always looks for plausible deniability as their proxies use of the guilty because they generally they are mean this is just the suspect. I look at winter calls, and salicylates voted Nick in New York online twos watch on YouTube that welcome.great.my question is going farther into warfare, and if so, you think that the help from the "bad administration would be helpful. I think that making everything worse. If for some reason, I do feel the need to step look for some degree? I'll tell you this. This is my sense and will go around the horn here but once the Israelis names a military action and give it a name.

This was called operation guardian of the walls I was involved in operation cast lead so was Jordan. We would, therefore, the fact that when I got couplings that have the cast lead in the maracas that landed 50 yards from us. That was operation cast lead, also in Gaza is now named operation guardian of the walls.

Generally when that happens.

Col. Smith, your urine escalating environment. Yeah. And to answer Nick's question Israel does not need any help militarily to win this conflict, or almost any conflict in which they be engaged so they don't need our help there. What the by demonstration could do to help them would be to give them moral and verbal support and not criticize them when they're trying to simply defend their country from hostile attacks were talking your hearing. That is a red alert. That means that of another rocket was modest about the fourth one in the about 45 minutes so that slowly down for them actually amygdala distant that's going to civilian land.

That's an alert system that does that site yet think that's a valid question.

During the break week we raise the question that that Robert raised on YouTube would represent up to leave, agree that UA should stop funding the Palestinian Authority and fan you had a you had a sense of because of their actions. You had a very interesting take on that important day.

I think we know the answer to that J because you know this. This goes back to Reseda to leave comments about how we should condition funding to Israel. Well guess what current US law does condition funding to the Palestinian Authority. It's a lot we talked about in this broadcast many times called the Taylor force act that says unless they stop their pay for sleigh program which of the program where they fund terrorists to kill it. Americans and Israelis, then we cannot under US law from the Palestinians, by the way, J part of that losses. They also have to condemn the ongoing hostility so it is currently as we speak against US law to fund the Palestinian Authority with economic funds Reseda to leave J she supports that funding as it stands, so I think we can conclusively say we know where she stands on that question I were taking phone calls and hundred 684-3110 is correct about the bills calling from Indiana hello you're there. I get a lot of news from our lab or whatever that once I thing out really going on. What I want to know, and I wanted to gain understanding item up for myself.

Yes I. Against anybody like I don't feel like at least with the news outlets we haven't stuff like that were not getting the full story and whatnot also said this is why were on YouTube. This is why we are on Facebook. This is why we broadcast around the world on different platforms. People like you who call in a genuine questions.

Genuine concerns were able to actually reach so many did so many different people that if you keep yourself in a small bubble of of whatever political side you want your never to reach people in. This is a part of its I called to let me let me explain to you what is happening in the in the short period of time over four years, four years in the last four years. There was a realignment in the Middle East in ways we've never envision I'm 65 years old almost and I been following this since the 60s, and you never had this alignment of Muslim blood countries and the Jewish lead state of Israel working together like they have with the culmination of that in the Abraham accords you had I not get what your family's country of origin. Do you know Bill born in America were all American like your grandparents and great grandparents where what part of the Muslim world and they come from or relate Americans like American like my family didn't migrate in the middle okay okay I completely get my came from Russia so I got odds last. Here's the point. So you got this, which is historic. The Muslim world has now, in large part dismissing the Gulf region and even Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Jordan, these countries are working very been entered into this formal arrangement called the Morocco know the Abraham accords and the Abraham accords are the three face of Abraham, Jewish Christian, the Muslim came together to work together social socially. In other words, exchange of citizens and travel economic development, military and security, and importantly water which is a big issue in the Middle East now having taken that there are this one area.

Problem is with the Palestinian Authority that the problem is, the Palestinian Authority does not even control the zones where they are allowed to govern because Gaza which is a big land portion of the Palestinian Authority's property is actually controlled by the terrorist group Hamas who's in conflict with just two there in conflict with this is important understand the Palestinian Authority so they don't get along even though there's mostly working together. I wrote a book on the center table decided to call Jerusalem and talks about all this. Historically, but what you need understand is is been a re-development a realignment in the Middle East in ways we never carry ever thought we would see in our lifetime and that is change this dynamic significantly.

I think that's precisely correct.

I think with the proper administration has done is that they have off engaged in talks which have led to a breakthrough that many of us were could not foresee in our own lifetime, but I also think it's very imperative to note that the lack of courage on the part of the Biden administration will slowly unravel these forward thinking agreements, and that will redound to hurt both Palestinians and Israelis and so I think it's very very important for the Biden administration to grow a backbone in terms of dealing with terrorists going forward. Otherwise I think we can see some unraveling in the Middle East were following this issue very, very closely.
