but give me four reasons let's come
together for four reasons why the enemy
started the war on October the
7th and what we can learn from it for
the sake of yum okay four reasons what's
the simplest reason of them all what's
the reason that they uh started the war
on October 7th go ahead the most basic
go
ahead perfect exactly right what's your
name sorry Gail Gail says that the
reason that they started the war was
because uh Jews were not United there
was divisiveness in the Jewish people
especially because of the uh uh judicial
reform doesn't matter what side you're
on that issue the fact is is that there
was a tremendous division in the Jewish
people right how however everybody will
agree to that nobody disagrees with it
there was a strong divide and we know
that thatas has said that the reason
that one of the reasons that they
attacked is because they sensed that the
Jewish people were in a divided State of
Affairs they've said it that's that's
not they've said in uh in
interrogations uh not only that if you
go to uh uh you guys go on Twitter
sometimes have you been on Twitter check
out check out this guy if you want to
see like a modern-day Hitler this guy
every day obsessively tweets about
Israel and his tweeting is that you know
Israel is his main contention is Israel
is falling apart from within that's his
main contention it is a society that is
crumbling from within and is going to uh
lose to us
so what could we learn from that Gail go
ahead what are you want to say no I was
going to give you the second hold on
we're not there the my question to is
what can we learn from uh this messaging
that said to us that divisiveness is
what caused them to uh to make war with
us stand okay let's you use it in Jewish
words that's the good Lincoln words and
what about Jewish
words
right what is Jewish I want to tell you
something me being here right now is
also part of Jewish the fact that I'm
here in Palm Beach synagogue in N also
means that I've come here to be part uh
to come to unite myself with you and you
with me and that we and when when when
when when when the Shu when Palm Beach
synagogue comes
to or the where they came to the
hilltops next to FR where I live and
work uh uh that's also we do a lot to
keep ourselves United across this
Atlantic divide and of course we could
use more unity in Israel
we have to have civil discourse just
because we disagree doesn't mean that we
you know can't love each other we I mean
our whole book the central book of
Judaism is the talmud which is a book of
Jewish
argumentation we're arguing with each
other in this tone after tone so clearly
we we know how to work with
disagreement uh where we are weak and
disagreement is in our driving culture
in Israel we're a little bit weak where
we when we when we are on the road we
fight a little too much Jews hate to
merge we've got a merge problem hate to
merge okay they are just like no I'm not
giving I've been waiting 2,000 years for
this spot you know so we got to learn to
have a little bit more we everybody
agrees with this nobody disagrees that a
little bit more is good for the Jewish
people and you know you know how um Dale
Carnegie says it if you do it 5% better
your enemy your comp your competitor
thinks you're doing it 100% better 5%
more 5% more 5% let the guy merge in
front of you it's okay you know 5% a
little bit more love for the Jewish
people for one another a little bit okay
that's number one number
two gentleman go ahead I
think of relations with Saudi Arabia you
f excellent but let's keep that for
number three I love it you're right
let's keep that what's number two Gail
we have a weak president here in the US
that's not that's really like Pro ir and
get we don't want to get I have to be
careful up here okay I I have to I have
to be careful here and try to and try to
keep it as as broad as but at the same
time stick to the truth but before we
get to us
issues what about Israel
issues yeah this fine gentleman named
Steve go
ahead like the young Kipper
War they thought we were checked out
right I'll translate that to my words
which is the reason they attacked us on
October 7th is because we we let them
because we let them because they were
preparing for 2 years this attack and we
let them nobody disagrees with that
Kamas themselves say that they fooled
the Jews for example do you remember
about a year ago there was a big missile
attack that Islamic Jihad made out of
Gaza Kamas did not participate in
interrogations Kamas said not
interrogations actually on Arabian
Arabic television they said it
themselves they're like we did it on
purpose
so that the Jews would believe that
we're into governance and we're into
peace and we're not into conflict right
now we stayed out of it for October 7th
so the Jews would be like yeah Hamas
doesn't really want war we have a
statement by the head of Army
intelligence three months
before the attack and he
says we don't think Hamas is interested
in attacking anything they want peace
now they want normalization that was 3
months so clearly we were fooled clearly
we allowed these tunnels to be built
underneath our nose
so what is the thing that we can learn
for it today for
y what is the thing that we can learn
from it
positively yeah don't go ahead don't
don't be fooled always be on guard
that's right that's right being Jewish
means being on guard when somebody tells
you yeah but you guys are the strongest
country in the Middle East be like don't
talk to me like that I don't want to
hear that we're really an armed ethnic
minority defending ourselves we got tons
of enemies and they are smart and they
are sharp they're Iran maybe turkey we
got stuff in Sinai I heard now that Iran
my intelligence friends are telling me
that Iran is now moving into Jordan we
got tons of problems and we cannot take
them for granted we are an armed ethnic
minority we are 7 and A5 million Jews
amongst 4 50 million Arabs in the Middle
East and we are an armed ethnic minority
and we cannot take it for granted we
cannot be suckers go ahead sir these are
all great bullet points but the major
thing is these guys are committed to
killing all Jews and and eradicating the
state of Israel everything else flows
from that okay in my opinion and what do
you do for that you got to stay pretty
darn Vigilant do you agree with me toted
and be totally alert yeah good so we're
in agreement exactly you said of who's
President it's not political I'm not
talking about American Presidents right
now I'm talking about the Jewish people
so the first one is you said it you said
it you said United and alert those are
my exactly my first two points thank you
very much excellent all right so wait I
just don't want to go too fast here
let's let's let the things sink in they
getting their protection from where they
getting their guns to protect themselves
who's G to give it to them who the Jews
who's gonna give them are you talking
about the Israelis who who are you
referring to Israel us Israel yeah where
they going to get all their their
protection and their armor we'll get to
that in a second I I I I'll get to thank
you all all questions are fun and really
I appreciate that question an important
one let's get to it in just a second let
me finish up my bullet points okay the
first one I said
is unity and the second one is don't
don't be a sucker be vigilant ever
Vigilant okay and number three now we're
going to get to a little bit more
esoteric you guys already mentioned it
over here a third reason that Kamas
struck on October 7th
is the budding peace with Saudi
Arabia this is very important this is
very very
important Saudi Arabia has been an enemy
of Israel for a long time they've
exported wahhabism they're a dangerous
lot but there's new WIS there's a guy
named Muhammad Ben Salman I'm not saying
I want him to marry my daughter but I am
saying that he is has a different
mindset it's known he wants to
liberalize for women for other things in
Saudi Arabia he wants a future he wants
to build this city called neom he he I
have a friend a Jewish friend who has
bought property in Riyad from the Syrian
Community they know what they're doing
over there he says to me Riyad is
beautiful it's welcoming and we know
that the king already took serious steps
to welcome Israel underneath a kind of
an understanding how do we know that do
you remember what was the big step
that's right the fly over correct the
fly over over Saudi Arabia they allowed
Israeli planes to fly over Saudi Arabia
that's like a big deal that's like the
biggest signal you can have cuz they
were like don't you Jews fly over
ourspace Israel You're you know then
they said okay go ahead we're we're
changing our Tunes huh they want to make
money and he figured out how to forget
about coming after the Jews that sonce
figed out how to make good like the LJ
so make money with the Jews that's what
he's doing good that's exactly what he's
doing fabulous make money with the Jews
that's called business exctly okay
business is goodly you know let's not no
that's good we're in Palm Beach we know
it's okay we know it's it's fine it's
fine to have good business that's a good
way to make good relations it's a
healthy thing that's normative that's
that is
normalization that's not a negative it's
a positive it's a positive tourism
business high-tech Health great but
behind it is a little bit more religious
than than you just made it out to be a
tadmore which is there is a way in Islam
to accept Israel as a people that belong
in their land there are four verses in
the Quran the Quran has a lot of
anti-Semitism it just does I read it but
uh but it has also some vers that
indicate that the Jewish people have a
right to live in the land of Israel and
that they have a special status Visa
God and they're taking these verses and
they're basically saying jihadism does
not yield such greatness for us we want
to have a future for our kids and the
100e war 100e war that we've had with
the Jews has yielded what nothing
nothing it has yielded nothing and if
you read the Torah or not read the Torah
you learn the hard way that when you
curse the Jews you get cursed
it just it's a it's a mechanism of this
universe all countries that are bad to
us at the end things turn around on them
that's just the mechanics of this
universe okay and and people like MPS
started getting to the idea that Israel
should be part of the solution not the
problem now uh it it did happen under
the Trump Administration now originally
they didn't even have a name for this
thing the Abraham Accords they didn't
have that name if you read if you read
David fredman's book and he told me
himself they were in the room and
suddenly a three- star general who
happened to be Puerto Rican ran in and
he said we need a name for this thing
and I think it should be the Abraham
Accords and then Donald Trump was like
don't you think it should be the Trump
Accords and somehow they settled on on
the Abraham
Accords they settled on the Abraham
Accords uh and and I want to tell you
that the name itself the name itself is
a big thing the name because what is the
number one accusation against Israel
what's the number one accusation think
what's the number one accusation on
campus at the New York Times colonizer
good no that's it who said it there you
go the number one single word the word
that describes what they're talking
about against us is occupation out of
that comes the whole Consciousness which
is what does Occupation means you're
foreigners you're white you're white
colonialist you're aartist that whole
Spiel we're not Sparty Jews we're not
from the Middle East Abraham didn't come
from Iraq the whole thing you're just a
bunch of colonialists from from from
Poland so that that's a very powerful
word that's a powerful word out there
occupation the word Abraham records is
exactly the opposite it says you are an
indigenous people you're from this land
you're an ancient people and in fact we
the Arabs and you share something Abra
in general by the way I got to tell you
going around the world speaking to Arabs
speaking to Jews speaking to Christians
Abraham is a
winning a winning brand I'm telling you
I'm I'm I was just in in Tennessee
speaking at a big pro-israel Conference
of Bible lovers from the Nations and
Abraham you could speak to it with the
Arabs speak about Abraham it it does
something to them ibraim okay they say
ibraim Allah abrah is the friend of
Allah Abraham Allah right he's he's the
lover of Allah and uh and that is a
brand that works in any case the Abraham
Accords is that word is a solution okay
what do we learn from that so oh sorry
theas wanted to stop this
process why because Saudi Arabia is like
is like Islam it's like the heart of
Islam they control Mecca and Medina and
now these guys are going to caser the
Jews
that's just anathema must stop that and
so they went out of their way to stop
that process is is really I mean isas is
just Hamas is is not exactly Iran but
they're funded by Iran they're also Iran
toas correct but I'm absolutely
absolutely Iran Iran by the way just
just parenthetically I want to tell you
something which is we got to take our
enemies more
seriously especially Persians don't mess
with them they're smart don't think that
they're dummies and they are tightening
their proxy war against us in Gaza in in
South Lebanon and now also in Jordan and
on campus and different places here and
these kind of things they're also part
of that they're smart they're working if
anything I think maybe I'll say this now
I was going to say at the end October
7th most important thing that we've got
to learn is we got to wake up we got to
wake up and shake off the cobwebs and
stop thinking that everything is honky
Dory and we got to like get a little bit
more like things need to be done for our
peoplehood and and for uh and for the
and for the Youth we got to be a little
bit more awake okay but the point is is
that the Abraham Accords was something
that they wanted to stop that's all I'm
trying to say so what is the answer then
what is the what is the thing that we
learned from
there if the Kamas and folks wanted to
stop the Abraham Accords what's the
answer more Abraham Accords right more
Abraham Accords Abraham Accords is
beautiful a lot of times I I speak at a
lot of places also on the uh you know
I'm on one side of the political aisle I
speak on the other side of the Pol
political aisle a lot in
Israel and they always say to me at the
end what's your vision for peace you
have a vision for peace I'm like yeah of
course we have a vision for peace it's
simple it's common sense a Jewish Israel
on its Homeland surrounded by Arabs on
their homelands working together for a
better
region the Jewish people on its land on
all of its land un Arabs on their land
working together for a better region
that's called the Abraham Accords and
when people tell me that it's a good
idea to cut Israel in two I ask them I
asked him what about Taiwan maybe maybe
the way Taiwan can make peace with China
is maybe we should cut that little
island and give half of it to China and
then there'll be peace and everybody
knows that that's absurd right it's like
a joke you can't cut Taiwan in half give
it to give it to giant China and have
peace there you got to hold on to your
own by the way I was once in Washington
DC and I met with a lob from the Kurdish
the Kurdish autonomous region of of Iraq
Northern Iraq so we were talking we were
amongst a lot of people and you know who
doesn't like the
Kurds the Iranians the Turks the syrians
and the Iraqis they don't like the the
Kurds so he happened to be dealing with
the Iranian side and I said to him I
said to him you know your problem is if
you want peace all you have to do is
give a piece of Kurdistan to Iran and
you'll have peace and him and I just
spontaneously bris out laughing like ha
what a joke you know and it's the same
thing with Israel do you really think
that if you chop up parts of Israel and
give it to the Kamas then you're going
to appease them no of course not and
when you speak with Arabs when you speak
with Arabs which I do a lot they always
say the same thing I say to them I have
a line that I start with them I say to
them Shu which means look I say to them
Allah has blessed you he has given you
400 million children children he has
given you 22 countries he's giving you
oil coming out of the ground Allah loves
you but this land he gave to us to the
yehud to the B Israel he gave it to us
we're the Jewish people and notice you
have never defeated us in a war how come
I say to them how come you've never
defeated us are you are we bigger than
you are we richer than you it's mean
Allah I tell them it's mean Allah Allah
wishes that we hold on to this land so
that's my Spiel with them and every time
and this is sad because they go like
this they go like this is this how it
goes they
go yes you are
right
but you have left the sin you have left
South Lebanon you have left parts of the
West Bank you have left Gaza which is
how they say Gaza you are
shrinking we are patient and Allah is
with us that is how they understand the
situation they see the Israel as
shrinking
and they think that we're colonialists
Crusaders and with time we'll be
gone if you remember anything from my
talk tonight you have to know that point
that is part of the psyche of our region
if you don't understand that then you
don't understand the region if you think
that the way it works in our region is
as I say you see this remote control
this remote control is so special to me
it's so special to me but for peace I'm
willing to split it with you and in the
west that might sound beautiful in the
in the Middle East it sounds like he's
willing to give up his the most precious
thing he's spineless he's broken he's
shrinking and inshallah with time I will
I will get rid of him totally that's a
fact okay one second hold on Gil one
second my point to you is let's finish
this off point number three which
is more Abraham Accords more Israel in
its region more more deals with decent
Arab countries that want to move forward
we have to get back on the Saudi Arabian
track not because we need to kiss up to
them but because we're part of the
region we need to speak their language
by the way in Israel they used to teach
Arabic in the schools and I'm so for it
they stopped teaching it years ago I'm
so for it I want my kids to learn Arabic
you got to know the language of the
region and it helps you understand the
mentality uh so that's a simple thing
more so let me remember what's the first
one we said
more Unity second one we said more
awareness awareness common sense and
strong Israel don't don't don't be
pushed around the Middle East number
three more Abraham Accords and number
four is the most most contentious one
okay should we have a little fun okay
let's do number four who else who
remembers what else came out in the news
there was a big CBS report on it there
was a big World Net Daily article about
it one of the spokesmen of Kamas said
this led them this act LED them to have
to attack on October the
7th secularism that's part of division
that's part of like you know Israel's no
there there was there was an act
something happened Music Festival no
that was that definitely was something
that made them want to that was a bait
for them but uh there was something else
yes sir they they knew the world would
react on social media uh that's part of
their preparedness which they did a
great job and I'm not going to talk
about that but they did a great job
preparing the campuses and other in
social media for this war but no I'm
saying what triggered there was one more
thing that triggered you have had to
catch it because it kind of went past
the news I made a video about it
yeah weren't there less troops in that
area not really a little bit yeah no
that was a tactical thing all right I'll
tell
you five red
cows flew from Texas to Israel to Shilo
these Gentiles lovers of Israel people
who I know by name down in
Texas decided that they want to help the
Jews have these red heers red heers are
used in purification processes
purification from what from the energy
of death in order so that we can Ascend
the Temple Mount and and and work on the
temple so there's these guys pro-israel
Gentiles they flew five red heers for
not for the purpose so much of actually
fulfilling it but for people to see it
and and and touch it and see how real it
is Kamas spokesman were on their News
Channel saying like we got to stop this
we got to stop this the Jews want the
temple they mean
it and they're like we we must stop this
because in their mind now somebody said
to me this before and I had a s i I gave
a talk in the afternoon a soldier said a
soldier that was in Gaza said every
house that they went into in Gaza has a
picture of the alaka mosque every single
house and they call it the alaka flood
so in their mind what is this thing all
about it's all about y it's all about
the temple M it's all about
who who God
chooses now here we could disagree
what's the right answer is the right
answer
therefore more Temple Consciousness or
less Temple Consciousness which one is
it I I cannot somebody somebody in this
room might say to me the answer
therefore is Pat down the temple
Consciousness but it's not going to
work the way to do it is to to be loud
and proud and in fact I have a little
gift for the rabbi I have a little gift
see my wife my wife makes this these
things which is a little this is a
little uh EOD what is it called a little
uh
yeah the vest with the breastplate right
uh for your wine bottle okay and it's
got a little Temple it's got a little
Temple patch on it soldiers love this
Temple patch soldiers have two patches
that they love one is Messiah and the
other one is this Temple P here you go
Rabbi vad for you for your
[Music]
line yi yi okay so so so we we're
finishing up right now by saying like
this
one two don't be a sucker be strong
three more Abraham Accords more rooted
in its region the opposite of of of
occupation we have to be indigenous to
this land and number four I think that
at the end huh
[Music]
whatow More Cows that's right or would
like to say red cow now okay that's what
we say yeah what do you make of the fact
that October 7th is Putin's birthday
oo so rabbi what do I make of the fact
that October 7th is Putin's birthday but
it was also it was also shabas and it
was
also and U you think there's a
connection you know you know I'll tell
you the truth I do think in all
seriousness that there are forces that
have worked for a long time to conspire
against us I think that this this has
been a serious plan Putin I don't know
about that maybe that's just a
coincidence I don't know but I think
that we have to understand that our
enemies are not playing around they have
thought about this seriously they waited
and they also prepared the campuses they
prepared the media they had an army of
keyboard Warriors in Russia in China in
Iran they had an army of of funded
Qatari funded campuses here in America
ready to explode day the next day the
protests were the next day uh so they
knew what they were doing and they
wanted to use the international pressure
the campus pressure the media pressure
to get Israel to basically not fight
fully which I think by the way in part
is what happened I don't think Israel
has fought this war let's put it this
way we've been fighting for seven months
over a Sandbox that we haven't defeated
yet so it's obvious that we haven't been
you know total full full force that's
obvious and no what I just said now is
not something you can disagree with
Israelis on the left and the right agree
that we have not fought this war in a
decisive fashion that because of the
United States partially that's a fact
generals have told me that right that's
not a left right issue generals have
told me that that that American Army
folks are or American
uh Pentagon folks in Israeli decision-
making are slowing down the the
robustness of the war but also it was it
was not robust it it should have been
robust from day
one Nations knew about it because they
had their on top of the tunnel so they
unra unra is a terror organization by
the way barem finally the state of
Israel is kicking out unra from
Jerusalem that's a beautiful
thing Common Sense Common Sense stuff
and Y is going to be a better place
without unra which is a terror
organization just with with a you know
with a liberal veneer it's a it's a
terrorist organization sir Egypt yeah a
big part of the
whole all the tunnel and playing as if
they friends they're letting all the
weapons TRS and everything
theel absolutely why is Israel so quiet
about it until the day why because
because uh because people that made
these peace deals and gave away our land
don't want to look bad and they don't
want to look like they miss totally this
this intelligence Fiasco no we know that
and so that's why they're quiet about it
Egypt is a Egypt is a player guys every
place that we have left every single
place has become a place of the cancer
against us I don't I actually didn't
want to talk about this too much because
I think it's a little depressing but if
you think about it really Sinai we gave
it away now it's tunnels to Gaza Gaza we
gave away has become Kamas Lebanon where
we where I served in 1995 is now kbal
land and Jordan is also becoming that
right now so all the places and of
course we we have I I want to say the
truth which is anybody that's in this
room has to know that we have to put put
ourselves in the mindset of of ging
ourselves for battle for a long term
that's the truth we have dug ourselves
in a certain hole and we got to come out
of it we got to be strong now and and
the point of my words is God forbid not
to depress anybody it's to say listen
this is the situation let's look at it
and it's time to to face it and deal
with it seriously so isn't lesson not to
give away that's that's how I understand
it it took right so it took that many
years for us to realize I mean after
Lebanon they didn't realize it after
that's how I understand it and people
like myself understand it that that we
cannot give away land for peace we
actually have to hold on and be strong
and that's what will also give you peace
and also respect in the region sir we
can talk about peace from today till
tomorrow the end of the week the end of
the month until the mindset of the
Palestinian people is rained after 76
years of being brainwashed that they
have to kill the Jews what's the answer
the answer is remarkably
simple here's a story you want to hear a
great story this happened two weeks ago
I was with a group like yourselves an
American synagogue was with me and I was
giving them a tour of the of the Tomb of
the Patriarchs and matriarchs the mas
and the Papas
Mar and uh and we were there and I
haven't taken have I have I toured Palm
Beach
synagogue no we did we did a fright you
took us last trip last trip that's right
okay how was that fun there's nothing
that's right there's nothing like
there's nothing like coming into the
Tomb of the Patriarchs and matriarchs
it's and everybody that knows me knows
that I say it's the Tomb of the masas
and Papas not the Tomb of the Patriarchs
it's whole Essence is that it's mothers
and fathers together that's its whole
beauty is that it has mothers and
fathers the the the founders of our
peoplehood that's it's and you could see
it as a religious site as a spiritual
site or as a secular site of Jewish
peoplehood you could see it both ways
and it's a very very special site I have
this hood of being one second hold on I
need to I'm just telling the story okay
here's the story so I had a beautiful
group like you and I'm giving them MAT
tour on the stairs ofat up comes a
general three star general who happens
to be the general who is in charge of
Arab Israel relations in the region this
is called the Civil Administration the
it's called and he's there and he's a
Drew he's an arab-speaking
non-muslim Drew and he has he's a three
star general in the Israeli Army so I I
asked him impromptu and he's new in the
position to talk with this group so
here's what he says he says to them you
know 70% of the
so-called Palestinians the Arabs that
live here uh 70% of them say to me says
this General I don't want a Palestinian
Authority here I want
Israel PA is is garbage they're they're
corrupt like anything they're
brainwashing our kids who needs their
garbage Ali inshah that the Jews would
come back take over this place and get
rid of this PA
already and the American Jews were
completely they were like wow and he
says I'm telling you I they talk to me
in Arabic that's what they tell me and I
could tell you that he's right there's
many that say that so 10 minutes later
we're at lunch and a different speaker
comes in he says polls show that 70% of
the Arabs living in Judean Samaria the
Palestinians are are in favor of the
October 7th attacks in favor of Kamas
and in fact I can tell you that Arabs
tell me that amongst the youth in Kevon
Kamas is Riding High everybody wants to
be like Kamas so the American Jews said
to me no which one is it are they proas
or are they pro
Israel I said to them the answer is
remarkably simple if you understand the
Middle East mind it depends on who's
stronger if the Kamas is stronger then
it's natural good Jihad you know good
we're on the train to destroy the Jews
and you know and with time and inshallah
and we're patient all that stuff and
we're with them we're with the Kamas but
if the Jews are strong and they're
smashing the heads of the Jihad jihad's
going nowhere then a switch turns in the
head and says good Israel they'll bring
governance there'll be normal hospitals
normal roads we'll have we'll have
Commerce it'll be normal around here
good it's better than this for thinking
a you know corrupt uh PA but it depends
on who's
strong that is the Middle East if you if
you understand that you understand the
region if you don't understand that
you're just speaking a different
language we have we have an Israeli uh
uh uh analyst from Iran he says
Arabs eat humus you're talking Sushi you
know that's what he says you know you
got to understand the region you got to
understand the region all right two more
questions we get to the next thing this
gentlem on you go ahead uh you alluded
to your service to Lebanon thank you it
seems to me that that's more of a power
now than Hamas who's been pretty much
destroyed in Gaza and John Bolton was
here in his thought leadership and he
was great how was that it was good he
says yeah he this all starts and ends
with Iran spip of all these he's such a
smart dude it's nice that he was here
for you guys do you think about that
what do you think the threat is Le I'll
repeat it your name Jim Jim says that uh
that the threat now is coming more from
Ira from from
kah Jim I'm not a military analyst and
I'm not here to talk about which one is
a little bit more dangerous which is not
truth is truth is we're surrounded by
bad guys right and they are serious in
Gaza they are very serious in Lebanon
and if they launch a all out war against
us we're in trouble and let me tell you
what's more the Palestinians are all
armed and the Israeli Arabs are aligned
today many of them are aligned with
palestini ISM it's not a simple
situation we've got to decide that we we
got to do a switch in the head that we
got to be what I said before an armed
ethnic minority in the region that makes
sure to defend itself and you should not
and it's my opinion a failure of our
leadership that they allow the enemy to
become armed on our our borders we
should not we should have zero tolerance
for Jihad
within and on our borders should not
allow such a thing in my opinion when I
was a when I was a 21 years old I was an
intern at APAC I me I went to endless
amount of these APAC conferences I
remember Nan talking about the dangers
of Iran 25 years ago and yet lari sadly
they have become armed and they probably
do have the nuclear bomb if not more
than one and the same thing with our
enemies in that is a failure and things
have to change so I was I was told by
somebody I W mention his name he was
nanano's roommate at MIT okay said why
can't you take out these bad guys on the
board of Lebanon we can it'll cost us 30
to 50,000 civilian casualties which is
what's open back
Jim let me let me put it to you in the
most Stark way possible if you don't
take care of the problem now you're just
kicking it down the road that's all it
is and that's what I say to my
colleagues and friends on the Israeli
life I say to them
guys we're not talking about feelings
and opinions anymore it's not about
niceties and peace and all that it's not
about with the International Community
it's a simple question are we going to
inherit a world to our children that is
more dangerous than the one that we had
that's the bottom line and and and you
can't play around with that stuff that's
my point there's got to be a place in
the Jewish psyche which knows okay we
got to stop playing around this is this
is this is the moment sir let's finish
up because I got to get to the next
thing you seem to have your finger on
the pulse more than most people that
I've seen here what's your sense of what
the hostages where where they are right
what's the disposition for the hostages
right
now let's
Sor he asked what's going on with the
hostages he asked what's going on with
the
hostages you know what the answer is the
approach was not right the hostages was
a horrific thing but from day one I'm
going to say something horrible day one
we should have gone Russian mentality
they're like gone
we have to now fight to make sure that
there's never again another hostage
that's the bottom line and you know what
I've heard parents of hostages and I
know not one I know many have told me
the same thing they've said ad it would
have been better had the Army told us
your sons or daughters are Kim they're
holy and go fight this war as though
they're gone fighting your war with a
hand tie behind the back using the
psychological warfare of it leads to
nothing good and of course it's of
course it adds the price it makes them
believe that they could do it again and
again we have to say to
them it's got to be a ruthlessness at
this moment it's got to be ruthlessness
that's the way it is okay wait Steve and
then you but then we got to finish up
because I got next thing go ahead
Steve so you talk about not giving up
land and um you know in the Middle East
the Arabs I believe will they care more
about the land than their own people and
even Netanyahu giving up had Ron to the
Arabs was a humongous
mistake
so the solution in Gaza to me is if you
give them the land back you're just
going to have more trouble so is do you
see in Israeli
Society the belief after all these
situations that uh the land is near in
Gaza let me answer you the Steve
question was is there anybody in Israel
who believes that we should hold on to
this piece of land or should we now give
it away again to the PA and that's the
the or whoever or some some some some
Middle East conglomerate that they're
talking about or some kind of
international
conglomerate let's just make it simple
okay we are Israel is the best suited to
govern that piece of land and it's the
only ones that going to deter terrorism
un we've seen them work in South Lebanon
they have done Zippo if not plus to the
other side so we know that they're Dre
when it comes to protecting our interest
so forget them is that okay can I use
that word is that a I hope that doesn't
count against me and um and and we know
that if we don't administer govern and
take care of that land it'll become
it'll become Jihadi again under other
other constellations so the answer is
simple get rid of the bad guys help
people that need to leave leave there's
a lot of countries that now willing to
take gods and refugees Spain Scotland
Australia Belgium Chile these are
countries that have said that they're
willing to take
refugees hold on hold on hold on hold on
I know you guys are like don't take them
don't go over there because then they'll
be where's that I get it but we need
them out of I got to deal with my
problem okay I understand other problems
but the bot my bottom line is that's for
the people who want to leave willingly
people that want to stay have to be
non-jihadist there's a simple answer to
how to deal with them in my opinion and
I've written a New York Times article
about this in 2017 I I published an
article called it was called a Settler's
vision for the future of Israel and
outlined five alternatives to two-state
solution it was a very serious article
if I can say so and one of them it
explains that we have to have residency
as an option for Arabs that want to stay
in Israel and and continue to live
non-jihadist pro-israeli Arab pro-israel
Arabs have to get residency in places
like Gaza in generally but okay and and
okay and and that's the way forward
that's the if Israel does not control
that land all we're doing is kicking the
can down the road again and again and
again it's time to make a switch that
was a horrific thing I was there in 2005
when our own government kicked us out
what were we fighting were we saying to
them if you kick us out of Gaza Hashem
is going to be angry this is this is
where y lived we got to live on this
land because hasem said and the Torah
said no we those are all true but that's
not what we were saying we were saying
if you give this land away the Jihad
will take over and Arabs in Gaza were
telling me the same thing they were
saying the same thing they were saying
don't leave this land you don't
understand was going to take over they
told that to me I remember I remember
their their fingers through the through
the through the fences telling me that
and so I'm telling you it's very simple
it's it's simple Common Sense we're
going to have to rule that land if our
government doesn't do that now a later
government's going to have to fight
again and then come to that simple
conclusion wait hold on one second hold
on guys come on I've done enough of that
I came here to celebrate all right go
ahead go ahead I can see your insistence
what's your name Richard yeah Richard
new book he said that if you put put
Israel into the corner it'll Luke
out Iran do you believe that to be
true Richard asked whether Israel would
use a nuclear bomb that I've heard from
foreign sources we may have um
um you know Richard you know Richard can
I tell you something that is not that's
not that's a non-question to me because
we have we have done so many things to
have allowed this thing to grow
understand they push him into the corner
maybe okay maybe you know that in 1973
in the yonip PO War nuclear supposedly
nuclear weapons were already in the air
and that Nixon kind of like said you
know bring him down and I'll help you
with that kind of thing
but I if we if we go there we're already
we're already far gone that's the
problem don't don't go there you know
let's let's I didn't even go there yeah
no not you don't go there I meant Israel
should not go there we should push into
a corner all he said was in his yes yes
yes okay fine but but but come on man
that's not the issue the issue is don't
get there don't get to that point
preempt it pop the zit before it gets
big you know what I'm saying don't don't
don't like don't let these things become
Giant and problems if they don't have a
choice okay if we don't have a choice of
course we're going of course we're here
to
survive yes
