As Israel Strikes Iran & Antisemitism Surges, Who Are the Real Jews? | Land of Israel Guys Podcast

[music] All right, ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to the Israel guys, where we believe that in a world of anti-Israel propaganda and Jew hatred, you should have a direct connection to the land of Israel. Well, you know, Jew hatred, you know, I'm just thinking, boy, is it on steroids right now. It's like it's just getting like pumped. The whole world seems to be just uh kind of infuriated with the Jews. right in time for Porm, which is amazing because the the the festival in Israel of Poreim is is uh coming up and it seems to be that the world is kind of losing a biblical narrative of what actually happened during Porim as they uh all just get uh infuriated with the Jews again. I I guess before we just really dive into really negative kind of like uh we don't really like doing that here but I thought there was something hysterical that happened um recently with all the negativity around you know the fight against Israel the fight against anybody who stands with Israel Christian Zionists now are are uh you know kind of being attacked pretty pretty openly now um and uh and so Huckabe's interview with Tucker Carlson well what was hilarious was uh right after that interview um Ambassador David Freriedman actually joined up with Ambassador Huckabe, current Ambassador Huckabe, and they had a um an awesome uh kickoff to their I don't even know why they gathered, but they gathered together to play a little song. And I just want to start to show up for this because this is a a kind of a funny way uh to kind of maybe process through a little bit of the hardships that are going on in the world. Well, let's play this clip. [music] You open up [music] Oh [singing] no. [music] [singing] >> Hound dog. >> That's Elvis Presley. Elvis Presley, Tennessee. Straight up and up. Um, you know, I I really do like uh how uh they responded. Of course. Yeah, we're running. They're going to This whole thing is recorded. It's it's live. Um >> I just love that that that the ambassadors can actually just really enjoy themselves and a response to >> Well, Josh, you failed to mention that uh David this David Friedman's Twitter feed. He said, "Back in Jerusalem for another gig with US ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabe. Our first song dedicated to Tucker Carlson." Yeah, I love that. >> So, it's it's a beautiful First of all, I just saw this video. I never saw that. Good for Ambassador Freriedman. He's like just being himself. He's he has a goatee. It looks like he's letting his hair grow out. He looks like he just came from a Rolling Stones concert. He's like rocking out and and on some level, I think that's really nice because we could get so wound up and like, "No, we have to fight and Tucker Carlson is so dangerous and we have to debate." Or we could just say, "You know what? This isn't God's hands. Let's sing a song. Let's laugh a little bit. It's okay. I'm just saying there's room for that. There's a place for that. >> There's this other guy that uh what's his name? Uh Ammy Kak, our best friend. Yeah, >> he is so funny. His take on Tucker Carlson's visit to Israel is just so hilarious. I got I just we really do have to show you just a quick clip of this guy. He is hilarious. Uh all of the Israel guys fans out there deserve to know about Ammy Kak and and uh just how absolutely hilarious he is. Uh I think it's it's good for us to laugh a little bit here. So Tucker, you just got back from Israel. >> Yes. >> And you said you were detained. What happened? >> Well, it was horrible what they did to me. It was terrible what they did to me. And I'll never never forgive them for that. It was shameful. >> And you were actually detained. >> I mean, you can see from the footage. You can see what they did to me. It's all it's all ON CAMERA. IT'S ALL ON CAMERA. [laughter] I mean, you can see that. I mean, cuz they're they're they're shameless and they're shameless people. And you can see from the footage. You can see this was an IDF soldier. I think he was IDF or MSAD. He grabbed me and he just squeezed me tight, holding my shoulder. He wouldn't he wouldn't let me go. just holding me there like [clears throat] stay right here. Stay. And they began like photographing me. They they took pictures of me. It was humiliating. Actually, it was really humiliating. It's probably one of the most humiliating experiences I've ever had actually. And began just snapping photos of me, which I did not consent to. I didn't say you could take that by, by the way. No. And so they started taking pictures. He was holding me just gripping my shoulder so tight. It was painful. And he wouldn't let me go. He just wouldn't let me go at all. >> Didn't they take you to VIP? >> They did take me to VIP. >> So that doesn't sound so bad, Tucker. Well, do you know what VIP stands for? I think it stands for very insignificant Protestant. >> What? >> And by the way, I'm an Episcopalian. I am nobody. I am nothing. I I really do believe that. I believe I'm insignificant. I believe I'm very insignificant. We all are insignificant in the eyes of God. Very insignificant Protestant. That was clearly the abbreviation for the room was a room for very insignificant Protestants. I I noticed none of the Israelis or Jewish people were going in there. And so they took me into a room for very insignificant Protestants. And that's what they consider me. And then and and so when he grabbed me, it was it was really painful >> really >> to the point when I when I woke up the next day, I had claw marks claw marks on my shoulder from the IDF soldier or massage agent when he, [clears throat] you know, he was it was very demonic. It was it was hurtful. And of course, they took my documents and uh look look at them taking my papers. >> Yeah, that's tough. >> So it was horrible. >> Tucker, do you think your critics who are pro-Israel are too soft and fragile? >> Oh yeah. [laughter] Yes. Yes. >> Okay. And last question. Can I get a quick picture with you? >> No. How dare you ask me that after what I've just been through. >> So sorry. [laughter] >> I'll just say that whenever uh whenever Tucker [clears throat] Carlson or Candace Owens or people anyone else like that puts out something against Israel or the Jews or you know anything like this, I I don't listen to the actual interviewer podcast. I just listen to Ammy Kak's impressions. >> Okay. Was it um there is a lot of actual things going on. Those were two things this week that really brought me some uh some great kind of joy and kind of lifted my spirits a little bit in the midst of some of the challenging realities that were at play. I mean, you really you've got these specialists on attacking the Jews. Oh, there's one more thing I want to tell. When I talk about specialists attack Jews, I just we got to pull this meme up really quickly. >> Yeah. For those listening, there's there's a a meme of Tucker Carlson sitting in the Oval Office with President Trump and uh it was posted to X by Zami Fogelman. says that the caption says there's a certain people scattered abroad and dispersed among the peoples and all the provinces of your kingdom. Uh, and so obviously a reference to Poreim when Hmon goes to King Akash Ferros and convinces him to slaughter all of the Jews, but and obviously this like seems like a Babylon B headline, but um, Justin posted it to the Israel guys exumsors that because Tucker Carlson does have a lot of access to the White House, but there are rumors that President Trump called him in about a month ago, month and a half ago. go to the White House and said like you're you're crossing the line here. I do not want to uh I don't want to see you keep going down this road of of Jew hatred and anti-semitism. Obviously, he doubled down, flew to Bengurian airport and and uh >> and you you got to give it to him because one of the things he's uh that I think Tuck Huckabe Tucker responded very well uh because I think he could have done better. He could have gone in a little bit more researched, but I love his heart and I love him as a person. But when Tucker was saying, "Well, Israel controls American foreign policy." I thought that Huckabe's approach was interesting. He's saying, "Are you saying that President Trump is that weak and feeble a president that he allows this small country of 9 million people to determine Americ's foreign policy, >> right?" And then he's I'm not saying anything. I'm not saying I'm just saying fentinel. And you know, he's like the the reason that it's not bad to watch Ammy Kak is because humor is necessary because it is a caricature. and the caricature exposes the underlying very sinister duplicitous techniques. One of the reasons I I like Tucker is because he's actually a really formidable adversary. He is brilliant in his ability to spin and rroot and redirect and manipulate. Like I'm sitting here taking notes, fascinated at his ability to do that. And so Ami Kak is sort of bringing that to light in a in a funny sort of way where he's like contradicting himself in two juxtaposed sentences. But really he's doing that throughout the entire thing to accomplish this mission. But on the other hand, the questions that he was asking I found to be very deep, very profound, and questions that needed to be asked. Can we before we get to the questions need to be asked just ask this one question? You said that anti-semitism is like on steroids. Never seen it before. It's like highest it's ever been. What was the turning point? When did that happen? When did it start becoming the trend that the world's like, "Whoa, Jew hatred is on the rise. This is really happening." Now, can we point >> I think there's an obvious point. Yeah. When is that? >> I would say October 7th. >> October 7th. >> October 8th. >> Okay. That's that that's really a good answer. >> There's a there were a few there was a few points. Another one I think was Kanye West. >> That was a point where things became very mainstreamed, very open. He took it so far into like dancing Hitler Hiller Hitler Hiller that that people were like okay now there's a lot of room there. >> Was that before October 7th or after October? >> After October 7th. So October 7th was really like when the genie was let out of the bottle. And I'm just wondering like so what happened in October 7th and all like what triggered the anti-semitism? Was it the fact that Jews were just massacred and shown to be so weak and so seemingly unprotected by God they were like oh that's the Jews. And then that took it off. Like what was the actual trigger there? Do you understand what I'm asking? >> What was it about October 7th that unleashed this unbelievable genie from the bomb? >> Do you have an answer or you just like asking the question? >> I'm asking the question. I have my opinion maybe. But I wanted to hear what you guys had to say about that because if that's the point that we're like, oh, that was the turning point. What was it about that? >> Well, I I think I think you touched on that and you said that they they seem to be so unprotected by God that like they're open game. Clearly, God is not with his people. He's rejected his people. that this Tucker Carlson Catholic approach to replacement theology that God has betrayed his covenant with his people because otherwise why would they do why would that have happened to his nation? I think that's a big part of it. And also to shatter the idol of these Jews in the diaspora that really truly believed that the more victim boxes that you check, the more virtuous you are and the more you are you are loved and protected. And they thought that that would apply also to Jews. And then I just remember right after October 7th, these feminists, these Jewish feminists were writing, "Hey, echo chamber, is anyone saying anything about these Jewish women that were raped and murdered and bludgeon, not a word? Nothing, because they're Jews. Does it not apply to us? I've spent my whole life fighting for this woke nonsense and it's not coming to benefit me when it's actually time to to come." And so I think that's another part of it, too. >> So your answer is that to the world was like, "Oh, God's not protecting these people. They must be replaced >> on a fundamental level. >> That's like a subconscious spiritual level. Josh, what do you think? >> I don't know. I I'm uh I was actually just sitting here trying to think uh back I'm looking at my notes from uh peoples that uh that are attacking the Jews historically and the question came up a lot in the interview uh with Tucker Carlson about um oh so the Christians aren't attacking the Jews. And so actually I was a little bit off topic. I was sitting here looking at um at um the Muslims, the Orthodox Christians, the Catholics, the Marinites, the uh Anglicans, believe it or not. Uh I guess that's Tucker Tucker's group of folks. Anglicans all participated in attacks against the Jews in 1921. I don't know. Is that off topic? No, it's not. I'm thinking just like okay well that's I've got this document from the I think it's the Peele Commission of 1921 and uh all these people groups were united front against the Jews in 1921 um of which is actually fascinating because there's a big discussion going around right now saying oh the the Jews have now killed 10 Americans this is a big thing that's going around right now so by the way >> but you know the first 12 Americans killed by Islam that you could foreseay or or or just say, you know, 12 Americans were killed in 1921 by radical Islamist and Christian Arabs and uh Marinite Arabs and Anglican Arabs. >> So, is it Am I You getting my point? >> Yeah. Well, no. Obviously, that's because America was supporting. What does this have to do with what with Tucker? >> No, I I I get it. I I think I get what you're saying. You're saying it's like it's not something new. >> Yeah, that's what I'm saying. This is just reason to a little more context. >> They say there's the Israeli state of 1948. That's why it is right or the that America is supporting the settlements or America supporting Israel 1921. What's the reason? But I just want to touch Jeremy on what you're saying here. I feel like we're a little bit all over the place, but we we spoke about the idea because you presented a great question and I'm eager to hear your answer and I'm very impressed at your ability to like ask honestly because I'd be like my answer is this immediately. Right. But uh the Sinai where the sages say that's where Sina comes from like deep hatred of the Jew because what is Sinai's message? The Torah's message through the nation of Israel for the world that the the weak, the elder, the widow, the orphan, the helpless, they're not to be pounced upon. I have a chicken coupe. I see what happens when there's a a sick chicken, a weak chicken. They peck at it, they peck it, they kill it. They kill it. That's the the animal kingdom, survival of the fittest. And without Israel sharing the message of morality to the world, then it really does come down to the survival of the fittest. October chicken, they're pecking at us. >> October 7th, we were the sick chicken. That's interesting. That's really interesting. >> Luke, do you agree that October 7th was the turning point? >> I do, but I I don't have an answer to your question, but my but I do remember like in the first 24 hours there was a lot of global sympathy for Israel, right? >> There was also the gas the Jews in Sydney. I'll never forget that >> within I don't know whether they didn't even respond to Gaza and they were like gas the Jews. >> Well, that was kind of my point is that like >> every rational sense of reasoning, every common sense analysis would say October 7th, worst massacre to happen to the Jewish people since the Holocaust, the world's sympathy should be with Israel. And it was for like 30 minutes, right? But literally, like you're saying, within 24, 48 hours, maybe 3 days, like the world turned on Israel. and and we're talking like tens of thousands if not hundreds of thousands marching in support of Hamas and against Israel in in uh England and in Australia. And so like something doesn't add up like something doesn't make sense, right? And looking back that was like the moment in time where where Jew hatred and anti-Israel anti-semitism just like spiked. But it doesn't make any sense. So >> well, >> I guess all that being said, I'm very curious. >> Yeah. I I also like like when was there a time where I felt like the anti-semitism actually like calmed down for a little bit and for me there was a time where I felt and I don't know the stats on Google or whatever but after the beeper operation it was like whoa what's going on here and it was like oh the anti-semitism going down now so I'm just like doing 1 plus 1 equals 2 Jewish weakness creates anti-semitism instead of what but the Jews are being raped but the Jews are being the victims what would work for every other nation in the world that would cause their sympathy the Jews just don't follow the laws of nature. And it's our strength that creates love for Israel and our weakness creates hate of Israel. And I think the reason why is because we brought this morality to the world, it's Sinai like you just mentioned. And then all of a sudden when we start acting in a way that's not representing God on earth, it throws everything for a loop. They're like, "What? We have this entire structure of civilization and the Jews are the foundation of it all, but look at how they're behaving. Where is God? Where is morality? I hate these guys. They're just creating confusion. And Jewish strength is what actually brings law and order, peace and prosperity to the world. So, we just have to learn from our past and be like, "Oh, Jewish strength is what quills the anti-semitism. Let's bring a little bit of Jewish strength. Stop waiting for Trump to attack Iran and we should preemptively attack Iran and knock the Ayatollah out." That would actually calm the anti-semitism. Once we actually bring the strength of God to the world, the world will respect us for bringing God to the world. >> That's right. I think the only reason is because Jewish strength is can only be the product of putting our faith where it belongs. Otherwise, Jewish strength just means what we're going to have be a strong nation in the face of a world that hates us. It just would be much more rational to lie over like the dog, you know, with the belly up and say, "Okay, don't fight. We don't want to fight." But that is not having true faith in God. the nation of Israel, these soldiers that are going to the front lines, sacrificing their lives, willing to die for Israel and the Jewish people, that's Jewish faith and that sanctifies God names. And I can't help but to feel >> that when I look at a lot of these Jews in America who have their microphones and their cameras and they're talking about the Jewish right to the land of Israel into that little hole on their screen that people like Tucker Carlson are saying, "Really? That your right to the land? So why are you not claiming that right? You've had thousands of years of praying and hoping and you say that it's God has given you this land but you're not actually going there. Well, he asked almost that form of that exact question to uh Ambassador Huckabe, but the question was not why do the Jews have the right to the land of Israel? It was like why haven't you taken the entire land of Israel from the Euphrates to the to the river of Egypt? probably the best clip in the >> which I I think kind of goes hand in hand with exactly what you're saying and and I think it's important to dwell on this subject a little bit of why Jewish strength equals anti-semitism going down and Jewish weakness equals it going up because I think you could also and it'd be an interesting topic to explore. I don't know if we have time for it but I think it would be very interesting to look back through history including times of the Bible to see if we see the same pattern. Well, I want to talk about the biblical borders of Israel. I think that's such an important question because what did God promise us? Why do we have a right to this land? Because that's what he was asking is does do the Jews have more of a right to the land than let's say Canada does to Canada? Like or is it it's all the same? If it's all the same, then great. And I'm like, I don't know. There's like a new country called Somali land. Do they have the same rights that the Jews do to Judea? >> No, forget that. Actually, go to a deeper Ireland. That's what uh Huckabe asked. You know, he said, "What about Stonehenge?" He said that goes thousands of years before the state of Israel. Do they have a a divine right? I thought that that was a very insightful question. Just because it's coming from Tucker Carlson, who's really a fundamentally dishonest uh player here, doesn't mean that we have to write off the question and say we really need to answer that question from an honest and true place. >> We'll get back to the podcast in a second, but guys, I want to extend another invitation to you to join the Israel Guys member program.

And then I want to hear your answer because you Jeremy are you really are quite good at like the borders and how they all interact and what the truth thing is much better than me. But I'll say >> I just took note of that. Did Ari did just say give you a really great >> a lot of things but but you know Huckabe I I I feel like as the ambassador what he should have said it's one thing when Tucker said well shouldn't they take you know Iraq and Lebanon and and Jordan. It's I think the answer is number one, it's one thing to go and proactively conquer biblical lands because they belong to you biblically. That's one thing and it's another thing to surrender and give away the land that God has already given you through these miraculous wars. So that's that's you know one fundamental thing that needs to be uh approached here. What was the other thing I'm forgetting and it's that's the important part. >> Ari, we're very ashamed of you right now. >> I'm ashamed of myself. It's going to come to me the minute you start talking. >> All right, then I'll just start talking. >> Oh. Oh, that's that Syria. Let's >> There you go. >> You know, so [laughter] here it is. We could just edit that out. I'm sure you're not going to edit that out. >> I'm not going to edit that out. That was great. The point is that you know when uh when Syria there's this huge vacuum within Syria if Israel went in and started establishing the Jewish state of Israel in Syria, which I think arguably should have happened. Why? Because God is handing it to us in a silver plate. We don't have to go and conquer Assad. It's already been there's a void here. Israel didn't do that because we're fundamentally not in that state of mind which arguably we should be. But who did that? Turkey. Turkeykey's going in. The world world does not say a word. If all of these different Arab countries go and get their hands in it and establish bases in it. But if Israel does it, no. Nobody can handle that. Nobody can tolerate that. You know, I remember when there was a flood in Houston, Texas, and uh there was a picture of a rabbi carrying a Torah, and and someone said, you know, feeling underwater, come to come back to the land of Israel, and I posted that on my Facebook. And the amount of hatred and anger that I got from other Jews, how could you say that at a time like this? You should say, if it said move to the Jewish community of Tennessee, oh, that's a good idea. Maybe I'll move to Tennessee. It's only when it is a godly biblical thing that generates real divine light of redemption in the world that the response is overwhelming. >> Well said. >> Is overwhelming. And and by the way, that's another reason one of the accusations that Tucker Carlson is always leveling. He's like, "Israel is on their sevenfront war is he is like a criticism of Israel. Like there's something wrong with us. Why are we always at war with the whole world? There's something about us that's fundamentally wrong." I mean when you look at the actual like >> Elijah was against 450 prophets of Bal what would Tucker have said about Elijah 450 of them what there's one of you >> we have to argue with everyone >> right Abraham Abraham was a Hebrew the whole world believed one thing and Abraham said no there's one God you know there's not fundamental virtue also in what there were 31 kings that attacked Israel in the northern kingdom in the northern alliance five in the southern alliance and it's just little old Israel that is we are often standing alone and he's he's you know uh condemning us for what is actually a virtue. >> Well, I wanted to just address the point of biblical Israel because that went a little bit off the thing there. All right. So, I think there's two points that need to be taken into consideration. That map that's right there is it's okay. It's almost the proper map, but I would want to make a few adjustments to it. But that is the promised land. That is what God promised to us. But in fact, we didn't actually live in all of that land. We lived when we crossed the Jordan in the times of Joshua. We lived in what is right now pretty much the modern state of Israel. That's where the tribes were lived. That's where they settled. That was the land. Jews are called Jews because we were of the tribe of Judea in Judea. We all the different tribes that kind of joined us after the northern kingdom was destroyed was in Judea. We are from this land. This land birthed our identity as Jews. We have always been there. There's always been a Jewish presence in the land that is the state of Israel today. So that's the first point. The second point is the idea of a mitzvah which also correlates with international law. If you are attacked by a foreign country and you win that war and then you reclaim that land, that land by every amount by the Torah, by international, that land belongs to you. When Syria attacked Israel, we defended ourselves. We could have easily taken over the land of Syria by biblical promise, by international law, by logic, because they attacked us and we won. you lose a war, you lose. And that's really what should have brought up to Tucker. I brought this up last time. Either you believe that if you conquer land, you have a right to it. Or you don't believe that when you conquer land, you have a right to it. If you conquer land and you have a right to it, then Israel has a right to every time we conquer land, then we have a right to >> Jeremy Huckabe said that. He said that and it was so interesting the way Tucker Carlson immediately redirected. Yeah, I don't want to, you know, revisit all the things. But, but Huckabe, >> that is the point. He did say that because Tucker keeps saying if someone shows up to my front door and says, "Hey, I have a right to your land. I have a deed." That's not the way it happened. By the way, international law says defensive war. That's like 10 minutes old. Throughout all of world history, it doesn't matter. Defensive, offensive, there's a war, you lose it, you lose, right? And that's it. And that's the answer. There was no, it's not like we showed up and said, "Hey, we have a right to this." And they were like, "Oh, well, I guess we're going to get up and leave." >> Can I read something that that I think is great. Like very clearly defines his point. And ironically, it's from Matt Walsh, who is not as pro-Israel. He's not anti-Israel. He's just like neutral about he's basically like, I don't care. I'm America first guy. But he encapsulated this concept really well. And he said, uh, the whole debate about which countries have the right to exist is based on a false premise. There is no right to exist for nations. What does that even mean? How can a country be entitled to exist? Every country on Earth came into existence through force and remains in existence through force. if you can't defend your existence, you will not exist anymore. The history of civilization is full of countries that existed and then ceased to exist. And he goes on, but I think uh that's a kind of exactly your point. Um is that and and I guess the question is and this kind of goes into some of other of the other of Tucker's arguments with Makabe and maybe we can get into this is like why is this an argument? Why are we arguing about Israel's right to exist? Why were we arguing about whether they they have a right to Israel proper to Judea and Samaria to Gaza to the Sinai to the Golan Heights? It's like Israel is here. They won every single war. Uh and they're winning right now and they are here. So therefore, they are sovereign. Maybe they should be more sovereign like in the spot we're sitting right now. But in that and like you're saying, if Israel was strong in that way, what would happen? There would probably be peace. >> Yeah, of course. Every time Israel builds another home in Judea and Samaria, it makes international headlines. If we would have gone into Syria, that would have made international waves. Turkey goes in, no one cares. Why? Because there is that map right there. That is the promise. And every time we inherit the land of Israel, we are coming closer to fulfilling God's promise. And when we're doing that, there's going to be opposition. And so as long as we just stay true, stay to the course every day, another inch, another tree, we will eventually win this and God's will reign and his sovereignty will be declared to the world when Israel declares sovereignty over that land. You don't want to push your point a little bit further further because uh everything in Israel is like um dramatically um you know u what do you call that like a it's like the magnifying glass just everybody's watching it. For instance, if uh if if a Jewish person in the interview they talked a lot about this um if a Jewish person was to spit toward not at as it was covered a a you know toward a uh a Christian in the in the land of Israel. That's what the world's talking about right now in Syria. They can kill hundreds of thousands of Christians brutally and the world will just kind of turn their eye away from that. That's that's not a really big deal. Nigeria or Yemen you just mentioned but there's also like modern countries where they'll actually go into churches and kill the people that are in the middle of a prayer service right now. Not spitting next to them. They're trying to kill Christians everywhere around the world. It's insane. I want to take it even one step further is is that um it's so sinister the conversation that's happening in America then and what's taken the headlines of the world when we look at to my earlier point about this war and we we've we've seen historic builds up buildups that have have have been similar to what we saw in October 7th. um when we when we see Israel's modern-day role in the val biblical values, you know, these people are saying America first or whatever their their discussion behind the scenes is of of why they hate Israel. It's because we're American. Well, if we actually boil this conversation, there's the biggest hit right now. Now, I think it's probably starting to get wind right now across. It took a few days, but they're talking about how um settlers killed a a uh an American an American Arab Palestinian. >> Palestinian American. Yeah. >> Well, okay. That's the And then they're saying this is the 10th uh American that Israel has killed. Well, as soon as they said that, I thought I want to see the list. What are they talking about? Because because we're talking about American interests, this >> can we just debunk this story because a because this guy is in theory a dual citizen, meaning like Palestinian authority and American, a lot of people are going to hear about it. >> Yeah. But I want to do it in the light of what's good for America. Let me just tell people what what we're talking about here and then then you can dive into that. >> When you guys fight, look at that. [laughter] >> That's your be you and Jeremy. >> Trying to be Let me let me let me Jeremy. >> We're we're learning slowly slowly. But no, but this is taking just to read the headline. >> This is going big. This news news articles are posting this. It's going big. >> Times of Israel as reported by Ha Aritz, which >> that's like, >> please don't listen to either one of them. >> That's like >> CNN as reported by uh by or by the New York Times. Yeah. >> Yeah. >> Uh and and the headline is IDF stood by as settlers killed Palestinian teen then stole hundreds of sheep. And it goes on to talk about this this sometime in the last week. And this is a uh Arab village near Jerusalem, right outside Jerusalem called >> We actually have a farmers. There's a Jewish village called Mikmos, which is where Jonathan and his armor bear climbed up and killed the Philistines in biblical exact same spot. >> So I have a good friend that's actually a farmer right there that we actually talked to on the phone about this talked to several people. These these are what did he say? These are these are real informants to the Israel guys. We have some of our own firsthand because the whole world can talk about this, but nobody knows the truth until we tell them. This is what actually happened. The mainstream media saying that settlers went into this village and they killed a 19-year-old Palestinian American teen uh and IDF soldiers just stood there and watched as 30 armed and masked shot several Palestinians and stole hundreds of sheep from a private farm. >> Well, but you want to know what actually happened? >> Yeah. >> What actually happened was is a bunch of radical Islamist. uh because this is what the really the war that I'm talking about that America should be interested in fighting alongside of Israel is the Islamic war that's that's not only uh threatening the state of Israel it's also threatening America as they're as they're chanting in the streets death Israel they're also chanting right beside that death to America is that news to anybody well this sounds like of America first issues that we should probably deal with these people that blew up uh you know killed 3,000 people on 911 like the same same people so I'm I'm really trying to baffled by Tucker's argument that these people are somehow we need to stand up for these Muslims uh that are radicalized well what actually happens in the situation is these radical Islamists run out in the field and attack a Jewish shepherd. That's that's what happened. Well, the Jewish shepherd uh calls calls security to help and these guys and this is of course this has just happened. So, uh the security come out and they're literally in an allout fight with these radical Islamists that are attacking Jewish shepherds in Jewish lands. said so by international law if anybody would care to know media that is attacking the Jewish people uh in their in their war on terror that should be every American's war as well. Um and so they're they're uh these guys are attack well >> I would actually correct that I don't think it's an eighth front. I think it's a sevenf frontont war and this front has two allies that are working in cooperation with each other. They're not different. Meaning kamas is doing what they're doing with the knowledge that Tucker Carlson is going to pick it up and run with it. When Israel drops leaflets and says, "Leave this area. Leave this area. We're going to bomb this area because there's terrorists here." Well, Hamas then intentionally brings children and elderly into that area that they know is going to be bombed. Why? Because they know that Tucker Carlson is going it's like lateraling him the ball and then he runs he runs with it. It's not two different fronts. It's two parts of the same front. >> So, I want to get into the story a little bit more though. This is because they put they take these video clips. Well, you know, they did there's a bunch of Hollywood actors, you know, involved with how to here's how you tell your story and you can, you know, get your little they call it Pollywood around here when they Okay, we're going to have the run the sheep out and we're going to tell these stories. Well, it's literally a bunch of propaganda. They're trying to make these Jewish shepherds on the mountains of Israel look like they're the issue. This is the same thing that happens in every anti-Israel, you know, production that's happening in on our modern news is they try to uh make Israel the problem and the Muslim Arab the solution. What in the world? That's so flipped on its head and it's so evil in its intent. And that's exactly what's happening here. They're taking clips, they're cutting little clips out of a Jewish person uh going and shooting someone. I mean, what would you do in Tennessee if someone comes to you and is aggressively trying to kill you and they have killed shepherds uh with rocks and stones? Thank God they didn't have weapons cuz they would have used them just like they do anywhere in in other areas of Israel that uh unfortunately Gaza of course they're using weapons because they have them. Um you know at this at this point the news is going to say and they already are saying it settlers killed them. Do you know that? And as the IDF stands by, do you know our good friend uh Dave Stern? >> Sure. >> Yeah, of course. >> Do you know he is noted in the UN files for being a uh one of these settlers that killed >> violent a violent settler? >> A violent settler. He is he is on the list. >> A violent. >> Is it because of when he got shot in the head? >> Uh there's another incident where he took out a terrorist. >> Unbelievable. >> And uh cuz he's a he's a warrior. He's an IDF. He's in the IDF. But you know in the media they don't make a difference between settler and IDF. They're all the same. If if you're in this area it's occupied occupied territories was Israel's biblical heartland and homeland of the Jewish people for 3,800 years. I mean but but forget all that. This is a is a radical settler that is uh on the UN list of problem makers >> and he's been shot in the head by terrorist. It's un >> I actually thought he was on the list because of when because he's such a warrior and his reactions are so over this guy messed with the like talk about losing the lottery. [laughter] You know, he was walking in front of David's car. He turned as far as you know, it's just a family of Jews and he pulled out his gun and so he got the first draw >> and within a millisecond David Stern pulled out his gun and shot him also shooting him getting him but David Stern still got shot in the head, shot in the arm. He applied a tourniquet and he I mean the guy is an absolute warrior but I actually thought because he fired back he's on the list. >> It could be it could be that one. I >> he still has a bullet in him I think. >> Yeah, he still has a bullet right next to lodged in his lung because it went through his arm. It bounced and it lodged and he coughs all the time because he has a bullet right sitting on his lung it's aggravating his lung. Um but so anyway, how appalled is this that he an American and also American being shot at and who cares that American was shot at? And this is my point. And I want to bring it home really hard here for just a second if I can. 10 that because it's going in the media big time. They're killing Americans. Well, do you know what this guy that they shot was an American Arab jihadi for goodness sakes? Is that not okay? Is it not okay to kill American jihadist? I think if they're they're enemy of the Jews and they're an enemy of the the state of of or the America, enemy of humanity, they're out trying to kill someone. I don't care if you're who you are. If you're trying to kill someone, you should kill them before they kill someone. Isn't that Isn't that like ethics? Isn't that morality? >> One of the things that you know Tucker came Am I interrupting you >> a little bit? >> Okay. So, I'm just because we had a set you we had a sign. >> Yeah, we did. >> Oh, yeah. Yeah. Come and monkey. It was a monkey. [laughter] >> I said if I interrupt too much, I need you guys to go. >> Here's here's my point I want to really bring home is they're saying there's been 10 and I've said this over and over. There's been 10 Americans killed by Israel. And and this should just infuriate America. Killed by Israel. Can we just clarify? Because even the story of th this story that we're talking about in the news, they said he killed by a settler. >> He was killed by the the security uh the ravsh shots like the head of security from the local community who the the security teams are in coordination with the IDF and they're defending each Jewish community. There's a a dedicated security team that works protect every community. And by the way, simultaneous to the statement, they're also spitting on clergymen in Jerusalem. >> And by the way, >> see how idiotic this is? >> By the way, if it was an IDF soldier on duty who had shot the jihadi, they would have also said killed by a settler. >> Here's the problem. Radical Islam has killed over 4,000 Americans. Is that And they're they're just throwing this argument out though. 10 people, 10 Americans that held American citizenship. But where were they? Then they said Israel killed them. Do you know where these 10 Americans were killed? Well, they were killed in the one Christian. All the rest of them were Muslim, radical Islamist. The one was a Christian in Gaza and was killed in a strike because he was I don't know what he was doing. But obviously, just because he's Christian doesn't mean he doesn't hate Israel and is not embedded with Hamas. That also doesn't mean that that Christians do that uh against what Tucker Carlson was saying. Christians have been attacking Israel for a long time, especially on specific denominational uh uh branches. Um, the other nine, nine out of these 10 Americans that have been killed, so-called killed by Israel, Gaza, Judea, and Samaria, and Lebanon. So, they're talking about they're they're going outside of no Americans have been killed in Israel proper, okay, as you could say, you know, today. But they're going to bring in these war these areas where conflict is going on with radical Islam and Americans these these radical Islamist Americans are being shot because they're going out and fighting against can we just say against Israeli and American interests when they're doing this and they're being killed because they're fighting fighting these uh an attack simultaneously. Israel is going to be bashed by that. But nobody's going to realize the real the real threat is radical Islam who has killed over 4,000 Americans since 1970. Is that not just just crazy? >> Yeah. I mean, >> it's not sensational enough, Josh. It's not New York Times. I don't know. They they sometimes hide behind these sort of titles and identities rather than going to the source. One of uh Tucker Carlson's challenges against Huckabe was saying 14y olds were killed. Do you remember this? 14-year-old was killed and Huckabe's like was he did he have a Kalachnikov rifle raping a a Jewish woman or you know bludgeoning Jews to death and Tucker's like I don't kill children. I wouldn't kill children. >> Let me just tell you something. If God forbid Tucker Carlson's daughter was being held in Gaza, raped repeatedly by 14-year-old jihadists, he would be the first one to kill them. Okay? There's no question about it. >> Well, Huckabe actually responded in that way. He's like, "Well, you know, would would you not?" >> Yeah. But then what did Tucker say? Just a platitude. I don't kill children. I'm against the killing of children. Like, so that makes Well, that means what? That the Huckabe is a pro- killing children. >> It's just amazing how they have the same tactic. Do you not believe that Black Lives Matter, >> right? >> And it's like that's an organization. I thought that unbelievable. They all use the same tactics, but now it's coming from the right and from the left. So, we're really getting and I feel like that is exactly where the world needs to go because there was a time where we really could have said, "Oh, yeah, Israel's friends, that's the Christians there with Israel." And it's not really going to be that way. It's going to be like the righteous among the nations are going to actually read the Bible, love God, and stand with God's people. It's not just going to be like, "Oh, yeah. I'm just a part of this mass movement of millions of people around the world. And it's just actually being sifted out that it's not going to be like a religious thing. It's not going to be a Christian thing or a Jewish thing. It's going to be a God thing. And there's going to be Jews that align with the enemy like Times of Israel. And there's going to be Christians that align with the Jews. It's going to be like actually individual people. Can they see right and can they see wrong? Can they see a Jewish shepherd and then look over at like hooded kamas terrorists with just their Aoy and Kalachnikovs on their back and be like, "Oh yeah, those are two the same. A Jewish shepherd that's out in the fields and terrorists." Yes, they're the same side of like a different >> Well, what they're trying to do is they're trying to make the Jewish shepherd that is literally its descendant of King David fulfilling the exactly the same thing King David did out shephering his sheep. They're trying to make that Muslim Arab look like he is the fulfillment of a and the and the um the uh prodigy of King David and the shepherd's field and and light becomes darkness and darkness. >> Oh my goodness, it just flipped on its head. But I don't think you ever answered that question very uh fully. >> What was the question? >> Tucker's question about the DNA like we we didn't fully >> but before you do, I just want to just take that point you made and just take it one step further. There's a Jewish teaching that why do we have this groove above our lip? You know this teaching, right? That when you're in the womb, there's an angel that comes. take this for what it is, metaphor, whatever, comes and teaches you all there is to know about the Torah, about the whole world, all the knowledge that there is, and then he taps you right here above your lip where you get the groove and then you forget it all. Right? So, the question is, why bother learning it if you just forget it all? We'll get back to the podcast in a second, guys. We have a really cool new product. You've seen it in the show.

And the answer is as you're going through this world, when you hear truth, there's a deep spiritual internal recognition of that truth. Even if the vast majority of the media and Tucker Carlson, even if he's making arguments that you don't exactly know how to refute and how to answer, if you are someone of that has a deep internal compass for truth, you should be able to hear and go with where your heart and your spiritual intuition is leading you about where is the light and where is the darkness. Even if that means you fall out in a place that could be socially ostracizing, if there's a price for it, I think a lot of people are just like, "The whole world is against Israel. Uh, this isn't my fight. I'm just willing to be like, yeah, free Palestine." No, no, no. Those people that are willing to put their lives on the line for truth. That is who this this remnant is that Jeremy's speaking of. >> Well, I think that's a really important question because it's so much more sinister than just like, oh, they're blaming the settlers for violence and the jihad has killed many more Americans than the Jews have. He's saying like, "How do we know that guy's a Jew? >> What's a Jew anyway? What is a Jew?" And he's like, "Whoa, that's like a new attack." I mean, the Jewish people, >> that's never been done before, right? Never. Never in history have we ever been questioned. Like, are we be We were killed for being Jews. We were persecuted for being Jews. Now, for the first time, we're being questioned like, "Are you Jews? Are you Benjamin Netanyahu, the prime minister of Israel?" That's literally what he is. Is he a Jew? Like, what is his European? I mean, look, the Shepherd's Field guys, they're they go back ancestor, they're all from this area, but but BB, he he just came from uh, you know, Europe just the other day >> and he's like, he doesn't even eat kosher. And I think it's just so interesting. It's like, wow. First of all, prime minister, you know, is being called out right now. And the prime minister of Israel should eat kosher. He should live by the Jewish laws. But he actually does live by the Jewish tradition. He circumcises his boy on the eighth day. He celebrates Passover. He doesn't celebrate Christmas. He celebrates Khaneka like he's living a Jewish lifestyle, but he's being called out for actually not living by the Torah, which I just find interesting. Like the enemies of Israel are just showing a mirror of the inconsistencies that Israel has. That he asked two questions. Let's be clear about this. He said, number one, you guys aren't the Jews. You're the Khazars. You're not the biblical Jews. And even if they are, well then what is a Jew anyways to the can can a Messianic make aliyah to the state of Israel? And these are questions that a lot of Israelis and Jews are like, "Ooh, how do we answer those?" And that's why it's good. These are times of refinement and they're times of truth and they're times that we got to look these questions in the eye, even if it's coming from Tucker Carlson, and say, "Let's dive in here and really clarify who we are, what we're about, and what's happening right now." These are times of refinement. >> Well, what's important though is when you have to compare it to Ireland or you compare it to Japan, there really is something different about being Jewish. It's just a unique thing in the world. It doesn't really have parallels and that's why it's confusing people. >> One thing on BB's Jewish, just just to get this straight. Sure. >> Very Jewish fellow actually. Uh um he's actually a descendant of the Vilna Gaon who is like one of Is there is there one? >> Yeah. One of the greatest rabbis of the 18th century. Like he really traces his lineage all the way back to one of the greatest rabbis in Jewish history. >> Uh who was also a Cohen. And if there's one line amongst the Jewish people that's pretty clear. It's the line of the Coenim, the the priest of Israel. >> That's true. I don't know if the Vil None was a Cohen, but there is a Cohen line that is undeniable in the genetics. That's what it say. >> Oh, is that true? That's interesting. >> I mean the vagon is is a cohen. >> Yeah. Okay, great. which means um Benjamin Netanyahu also is from the lineage of a Cohen, which means that's the most Jewish you could possibly ever even be is because you're in the the line that's that's been the the most uh uh held, you know, very detailed held line of Jewishness like Y chromosome genetic marker that connects all Coanim around the world. This has been scientifically established as true. And by the way, for those that are saying, "Wait a second, but Benjamin Netau is in a Cohen. How is he descended from a Cohen?" Let me just clarify that if that question is arising in people's minds, my great-grandmother, her name was Ida Cohen. I'm on from the Cohanic line, but it's not through the father. The if you're a Jew goes through the mother, and what tribe you are goes through the father. And so that's the reason that he's descended from a Cohen, but he himself is not a Cohen. >> I hate I hate to be a voice of disscent here, but my my research says the villain of Gohan was not a Cohen. >> Oh, there we go. >> Okay. Well, says that he was. There it is. >> Mine said he was too. Yours said he was. >> He was indeed a cohane. >> Wait, is this Rabbi Elen Schlommo Zman >> 1720 to 1797 from Lithuania? >> Yes. But you were also debating and refuting Rabbi Chad GPT. [laughter] >> Okay. That says yes was a Cohen. He came from a priestly family and signed some of his writings with his khanic lineage. Perfect opportunity to divite invite our Jewish audience to get in the comment section and let us know. >> Just to let you know, by the way, cats, the last name cats is one of the indicators of a Cohen because it comes from Cohen Sedek, a righteous priest. So for those of you that know like a cats, that's a very famous Jewish last name. It's like the smith name of the kohanim. >> While we're on this topic, can I just bring up something that's on the opposite really quickly? >> Okay. >> Do you know the Arabs also have last names? >> Sure. you why can't we ask the same question back? So, what about the Arabs that are around here? What what are they what's their last names? What's their heritage? Well, you know what their last names are mostly? They're they're very tribal people and so they they actually their name has to do with where they're from, >> right? A lot of them are like from Egypt. >> Well, Alasi is one of the most famous names around here. Our next door neighbor, his name is Al Maser and which means he's from Egypt. >> From Egypt. But the whole world's up in arms saying he's he is the indigenous guy. Mr. Mashrian over there. He's the indigenous one when his name literally means in Arabic from from Egypt. You know, there's a lot of last names in Arabic that are just like that. It's it literally says where they came from, >> right? And often it's like who their oldest son is that becomes like Abu Mazin. Why? Because Abu Mazin's oldest son is Mazin and so he became Abu Mazin. But um but it's important to recognize that when it comes to who is a Jew, we've never had to really defend that throughout all of history. It's never been a real accusation because who's going to we know who's the Jew because who is the inquisitions and the pagrums and the cosacs who's being tied to the stake and being burned at the stake in order to we know who's the Jew because they never let us forget it which is now absolutely terrible that actually a role of Christianity in the played in the world was keeping Jewish identity horribly >> but that actually it played out the persecutions actually mandated Jews where their identity was kept they could they the the world the Christian world of the dark dark ages and all these ages actually pushed Jewish identity so hard that it kept the Jewish people just this is exactly who they were. They could they were there was so much uh attentioned >> and very often it was right when we were at that tipping point of assimilation that any other nation would just disappear. What was the intermarriage rate in pre-Holocust Germany? Like 70%, 60% something like that. They were in the arts and the sciences and the most loyal Germans and Berlin is our Jerusalem. And it's right then that it always happens. Right then that it always happens. But why now? Why now is this happening that we're being questioned in that way? I believe it's because you see this in gathering of the exiles happening. The revival of the Hebrew language through our hands. The hills of Judea are turning green and giving forth their fruits. The prophecies of redemption are being fulfilled through us. And now they have to contend with that. So how does Tucker Carlson look at this and say, "Well, you're not the Jews." And so all of that isn't actually prophecy being fulfilled. It's just something you're pushing the envelope and occupying lands and we're still the chosen people. You're not the chosen people. And it's this house of cards that he needs to keep up by questioning our our Jewish ancestry. Whereas throughout history, we've we've never even had to contend with that. It's only now. So in some ways, it's a cool development that we need to deal with it now because it shows that we're really on the cusp of great light. I someone just sent me these stats. There's 23,214 verses in the Hebrew Bible in the Tanakh. Out of that, 2,221 say Israel. That's almost 10%. 9.67% of the Hebrew Bible talks about Israel. And now the people of Israel have come back to the land of Israel. And all of those prophecies have come to pass. We're growing. We're Hebrew. Our language, our economy, everything's happening. The mountains are coming back to life. And there need to be people that say, "Yeah, I really believe, but that's all just a coincidence." And I'm just wondering like, "Okay, what is our answer?" When they say, "Who is a Jew? What is the answer?" So, on one hand, it's like, "Okay, we are a people. We're a family. We're like the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob." But anyone can join the family. It's Ruth the Moabitete was from Moab, a total non-Jew, non-Israelite. In fact, the Torah says you're not even allowed to marry into the Moabites. They're such enemies. So like a real enemy of Israel is the one that gave birth to the messianic dynasty of King David, the king of Israel came from a non-Israelite. So you can be genetically Jewish, you can be spiritually Jewish, you can convert to Judaism, you're like the it's like a family that allows people to join, but there's not really another nation like that on earth. So Israel is being called out for just being unique. But that is the reality. You can either be born a Jew, you can become a Jew, you can attach yourself to Israel. And there are even those that don't convert to Judaism and they had not born Jewish and they still attach themselves to Israel and live among us, serve in the army because they're just righteous among the nations that have joined Israel. That's literally happened in Beth Ellen Israel. That's happened with the Hyov group here. They literally just have decided to attach their destiny to Israel. And one day when eventually Israel orders itself according to the Torah, there will be a concept of agoshave that they are the righteous among the nations that live among Israel as part of Israel. >> That's what I was going to say and I want to take it one step further. Who is this righteous of the nations that's actually attaching themselves? I think a great example is Ambassador Huckabe. Why? When did that come out the most to me? He said to Tucker, "You think I want war? You think I want war? Well, you're gonna go back to America and I'm going to be here in the line of fire being targeted by all of the jihad and I'm staying here. I'm not going anywhere. And that to me right now where we're at in history, the answer to really who is a Jew? I don't want to say Jew because I want to zoom out a little bit as the prophet Zachchariah says when he says and the righteous of the nations will attach themselves to the house of Israel. There will be some sort of new national identity there. He says it. I wouldn't have the courage to say that if the prophets didn't say that there's something new is being birthed of those that are willing to say now only now at this time when there's a real price to pay for being a Jew in the world. Those that say I'm here with you and I'm paying the price with you and your God is my God and your people is my people and I'll die for you. In God's eyes there is something that happens there. There's a type of merging and deeper connection that's only now because you know in the times of King Solomon there was no conversion to Judaism. There were too many ulterior motives. The things were too good for Jews at that time. >> Eventually everyone's going to want to be our friend. >> Right. But but right now when there's a real price to pay that could be with your life in the days and and months and years to come. Then this is the time that if you really stand with us, I believe on some godly level that we may not understand and see and be able to measure, there's a deep connection that's happening that uh that we will we'll only understand looking backwards. >> Well, I really I wanted to just bring one more prophecy into picture because you know the stories of the prophets, they're not just stories. They're written in the book of prophets because in some ways they are a template for prophecy itself. Now we live in the Arugote farm in the mountains where King David hid after he killed Goliath. And he assembled his mighty men there. That's not just a story of history, but that really is a story of prophecy. And about half of David's mighty men, they weren't Jews. It is not a Jew. Oriah the Hitittite. Bacheva's husband. Hittite wasn't his last name. Hitittite is a nation that he was from. So David's mighty men, that's a prophecy that one day there's going to be a king in Israel. And his mighty men are not just going to be Jews. They're going to be the righteous remnant from the nations that align themselves with Israel and serve under the king of Israel. That is the prophecy. And all of this attack on Christian Zionism ultimately is a sifting process because if it's not trendy, it's not popular. Then, okay, I'll just be with what's popular. Tucker says to do that, I'll do that. But then there'll be people that are just people of God. They're people of righteousness and goodness. And they have that listening heart. They're like, I can tell here who's a terrorist and who's a shepherd. I'm going to step with the Judeian shepherd. I'm not aligning myself with jihad and the terror and they're going to just be separated by the truth. >> I I know we're running out of time here, so I thought maybe this would be just a thought that I've had that I'm going to lay up and then Jeremy could knock it down because I don't want to steal this idea from you. It's one of the ideas you taught me. But we're approaching the holiday of Purim. >> Yeah, >> this is the last show we're going to do before Purim. And as we said, why is a book in the Tanakh when it's only relevant when it's also relevant for the future? The book of Mcabes was very historically true, but it's not prophetically relevant. And so what happened in the story of Purim, the nation of Persia rose up and there was a an a plan to wipe out all of the Jews, men, women, children, babies, everybody. Wipe them off the face of the earth. That was the plan. And it was going to be implemented and it was decided upon. And what happened? It was flipped on its head. And Hmon built the gallows and he was hung on the very gallows that he built. But what also happened? He so hated the Jewish people and so hated the concept of God in the world and redemption that what did his attack on the Jews lead to? Cyrus, Darius, the building of the temple. It led to the building of the temple. What we're looking at right now with Iran and this upcoming attack, they are wanting to wipe the nation of Israel off the map. And what is this going to lead to? the building of the temple. That's what it's leading to and that's where it's going. And what you said, Jeremy, you had this idea that you shared once that uh that people didn't convert in those times, but he had do, >> right? >> Can you share about that? >> Well, it says I think in either the end of chapter 8, the beginning of chapter 9 that >> of the book of Esther >> of the book of Esther, it says that many from the nations were Mityahadeim. They started becoming more biblical. They started living a little bit more like the Jewish people. They didn't convert to Judaism, but they started honoring Shabbat. They started like living a more Jewish lifestyle. And that's literally what's going to happen ultimately. The people that are going to like align with Tucker Carlson, they're going down like a Catholic route, which means their roots are going to be in Rome with other holidays and other times. And there's going to be another side that are still not Jews, but they're going to be living a little bit more like the Jews. They're going to be living a little bit more biblically. They're going to start honoring the Ten Commandments. And the Ten Commandments, >> when did that happen? It happened after everything flipped on its head and people are like, "Oh, God is with them. Maybe I should consider the Sabbath. It sounds nice to turn off your phone." You know, like that that that is when it happens. And so that's why right now before everything flips on its head, when things look dark and foreboding and overwhelmingly outnumbered, this is when it really matters to stand with us. All right. You've uh in the last month or two, you've made a lot of predictions of of things that were going to culminate on pouring. So, this is your last opportunity cuz next week we'll have the analysis of what did not happen unfortunately. >> No, I'm not triggery about predictions. Is there anything you want to uh reiterate or just make sure everybody knows? >> Things are pointing in your direction right now. >> Yes. I've been making predictions of redemption pretty much since 2008 2009. But in the scheme of history, if I'm off by 20 years, we're talking about, you know, 5,700. What are we talking about? Like I'm I'm It's close enough. And eventually I'm going to be right. As they say in Texas, even a blind squirrel finds an egg. Right. But but I do think that this coming porum, not just me, Prime Minister Netanyahu sent out a message. That's right. >> And said, can we look at that message times that one? >> He said this coming porum, we're going to need to band together. >> Oh, right. >> Right. He said that this he led to some sort the message was alluding and hinting to the fact that this coming poor there's going to be something big that's happening. So it's not just in my you know constant uh anticipation of redemption brain but I think that this really could be a very consequential uh porum. >> I found the guy that's stockpiling food uh on on Twitter in preparation for the coming war and he has a lot more than sardines. So I'm pretty sure I'm going to his house. Um [laughter] I know you have plenty of sardines for all of us. >> I do. Thank you, Chuck. One one uh one last note I had was uh one positive thing from the interview with uh Huckabe and Tucker was is that um Ambassador Huckabe was is that uh Tucker gave a really interesting um kind of an ad that I thought was really unique to point out for Jewish aliyah. And you know he's always encouraging that and in subtle ways uh about how the Jews should really just move on to kind of >> I thought he's promoting the expansion of Israel's borders in that that part too. But he said, "Israel has a higher standard of living than the US." I thought, "What greater message he said that?" Yeah, I took a note of it and uh I thought, "Wow." And and coupled with >> in order to say, "Why are we giving them military aid? Why are we sending them any money if they're living better than Americans live?" >> You know, he the other day I heard him say that the settlements were really ugly and that the airport was trash. Um so this comment is coming from a very, you know, he's obviously not real real clear at times about what his what his comment is, but I did think They've got a lot of resources. They don't have any resources. They're very wealthy. Their their VIP lounge is horrible. [laughter] >> But I just thought one thing that hold maybe is holding a lot of American Jews back is is the the the uh standard of living. >> They don't want to take a a lower standard of living, wouldn't you say? Like like that's that's part of the thing. So just as a message out there to all of the aliyah, this is one point of that Tucker interview that should be listened to. Israel's amazing place to live. And uh >> I mean Jeremy the most beautiful view in in the entire Middle East where they beautiful farm. You can even have a farm if you're if you're if you're a far you're out on the hillsides of of Judea. My gracious uh you know you can't really can't get better. >> The real city the city's growing. >> You got to remember this. The real view is not when you're looking out the window. The real view is when you turn around and you sit at your seat Sabbath table and you're looking at your family >> like we just did the other day. That's fantastic. All right, guys.

Was he a priest or not? >> I asked Chad GBT again. I said I said my friend Ari asked Chad and it said he was. And so I said, "I need you to check."
