Missiles, Miracles & War: What Life in Israel Looks Like Right Now | Land of Israel Guys Podcast

[music] >> All right, guys. Welcome back to the Israel Guys, where we believe in a world of anti-Israel propaganda and Jew hatred. We've got a lot of that going on here. But, you should be connected to the truth of what's actually happening here in Israel. Guys, it's so awesome to be back, you know, such a brotherhood here. Ari, Jeremy, Luke, um you know, I really look forward to this time every week to be able to just gather around, bring the thoughts of the week together. Um slightly uh we were just asking how you doing before the show. And uh I guess you guys have bomb shelters in your house. Our bomb shelter is uh well, from my house it's a slightly closer than Luke's. Luke has a longer run to >> one-up? We can each one-up each other. Like, I have the farthest run to the bomb shelter. So You definitely do. But, do you have a mamad or a miklat? It's the miklat, the big like the big shelter. So, we have Cuz there's two levels. You don't know Most people don't have a miklat. A miklat is like a real fortification. Like, a big bomb could like drop on that or near that and it would be It's stronger. It's stronger. It's more fortified. A mamad is a safe room. A safe room. That would be like shrapnel and stuff. >> think ours would survive like a a missile, a direct missile hit. Well, I mean I don't think many would. It's a five-story tall missile striking exactly. But, anyway, hey. This landed right outside my home's door last night. I actually heard it hit the ground from inside the bomb shelter. Shing, cuz it hit the pavement outside the uh door. So, uh this is what's been happening. And, you know, a lot of times this This is kind of good for our team actually to realize that this kind of thing does fall cuz we're not in a direct hit path here. And you guys are not either. But, what could happen at both of our where we both live, our homes, is is that shrapnel from the hits, right? Cuz they're all they're This is something I want to point out right at the beginning of the show. Did you guys know that in Lebanon, really quickly, that when the when the rockets are going off Look at all this, yeah. I was just going to mention like most of the shrapnel that falls is like this. And this is Yeah. It's It's metal, but it's fairly light. Where it's not going to kill you. It's going to give you a headache. >> Yeah. This would This would kill somebody. So, you have to be careful. >> you if it hits you, for sure. Now, this is what I want to take point to and I actually want to just because this was such a like, "Wow, I never thought about this before." In Lebanon, you guys just watch this video because in Lebanon, what happens when all these cuz Israel's doing a lot of strikes in Lebanon. So, when when they're striking, the the locals go outside and watch what's going on because they know they're not the target. There are strategic targets being hit in areas that have already been cleared or or at least leaflets have been dropped, "Hey, we're coming to this area." So, if you've not gotten a a warning that they're coming to your area, you can go watch the show. I mean, that's what happens in Lebanon. Here in Israel, um I mean, maybe they would love to see us all dead, the Iranians, but they're targeting civilian areas. And they also don't discriminate. Meaning, they will They don't care, "Oh, there's this Arab village near there, this Arab village near there." That's That's small potatoes for them. It's not like the Palestinians that they love that the whole reason for this war is about the They don't care about them. That's not a 100 rockets were shot. So, I wanted to say last night there were real sirens going off. >> Oh, yeah. All night. >> And and I walked outside because, you know, there were a few other people at the farm last night. And so, I wanted to make sure that they knew that they could come into my house. We have a safe room. And so, usually this war I go inside, but this is the first time I actually turned around away. I I walked outside, I looked up, and it looked like a cluster bomb. >> Yeah, right. That's what it looked like, but you can never really tell, at least in my eyes, whether it was a interception that caused the fragmentation of a missile because the sky was filled with missiles. Literally, maybe it's a like where does the rainbow end illusion, but it feels like it's always right on top of you. >> Mhm. It looked like it was right on top of us, and then fragmentation. And I thought literally cluster bombs were falling all around us. So, I ran inside, got into the safe room, got the fire extinguisher, and uh and that's like that's what was happening last night. And it's not crazy to think they're That's their This is the mood that they're in is cluster bombs. How many cluster bombs have they shot? I did quite a few. We had a Yeah, for sure cluster bombs go over right over our heads a few nights ago when um We'll try to play the video. I think we put it on our Telegram group. Maybe it was our members group. But Yeah, but what's important cuz you guys picked up a little piece of shrapnel is that sometimes the shrapnel that falls are huge pieces of the missile that will like destroy a home if it lands on a home. It'll like totally ruin its roof. It'll be a huge piece. >> me. This is one little This is a small piece, but there's there's massive pieces that have fallen right here on our base. Um I'm going to show this really quickly cuz this was my earlier point was This This is Watch this video. This is the Lebanese people going out and watching, you know, a whole group of people. This is like at a restaurant like some sort of pub or something and they're all just standing out there and they're watching the No fear. That's not what happens in Israel. And everybody You just be watching this right now. And Yeah. smoking their uh sh- hashish hashish They're smoking hashish. Watching the show like And they're not In Israel, it's completely opposite. Everybody, because everyone's a target. It's not just the bad guys are targets. Every civilian is a target. And so everyone has to run to the shelter. Um just a completely opposite situation here. One is targeting civilians. One is targeting the enemy infrastructure. And that's what I wish the world would just understand that. That's such a huge point. >> you could talk about this story here, but you were mentioning before we started recording about um the priest that was killed in Lebanon a couple days ago. Uh and everybody's blaming Israel. Christian priest killed in airstrike, right? But this kind of goes into Josh's point of how how things work. The difference between him fires on their enemies versus their enemies firing on Israel. >> so I'll tell you the part that I know and the part that I I'm I need to investigate further, but I know for sure that this priest decided to ignore leaflets that Israel dropped. I believe it was in Marjayoun that this happened or near there, but they dropped leaflets and the priest said, "No, this is our homes and we're not leaving." I don't know why. I don't I don't know if that was like an ideological thing against Israel or if he's just like, "This is we're here to stay. They have no reason to attack us." But the priest has been mourned in Israel and the head of the South I mean the South Lebanese Army. I remember I was in the army. We were in the Shar Fatima going into Lebanon and the South Lebanese Army was there in Israel after they retreated from Southern Lebanon, which is a horrible mistake. But when they did, they relocated and invited these Christians in the South Lebanese Army to move and live in Israel. Okay. Oh, so horrible to Christians. They hate Christians. They When who has ever done such a thing? A foreign South Lebanese Christian Army, they allowed them to and the and in in Metula. And this army has issued messages saying that this is Hezbollah's fault. And the community there of Christians in South Lebanon were also blaming Hezbollah for this. So but you listen to Tucker Carlson. I'm not saying we should live focus on him, but he's like, "Israel just killed a priest. I killed a priest. Why did they do that? I don't know, but they killed him." You know, it's just like it's a very childish and Goebbels-like. I was just talking to Jeremy on the way here about this. We listened to the first 45 minutes of his podcast, which I just binge on. And you just listen to what he talks. It's like spin, twist, distortion, lie, truth, truth, distortion, twist, spin, lie. And it's like all mixed up together in a way where you're like, "Well, that's true and that's true, and that's true, but when you're here in Israel, and you hear things that are clearly blatant, obvious lies, you're like, oh, I'm able to now deduce from that what's really going on here.

So, it's important to understand that here in Israel, I know just my own heart, and the heart of everybody I know, there is a love for uh pe- people of peace and love and Christians. And you could always focus on Rabbi Mizrahi. One guy, one off, you know, like two Jews, three opinions. But this guy is like universally considered or this individual. And focus hyper focus on a 9-year-old kid that spit on someone and say that's what's happening in Israel. But you know, you're Christians. >> Well, I think what's really important is to just look at the big picture. That there have been um no IDF soldiers so far killed in Iran, thank God. And there've been what? 10 to 15 civilians killed in Israel. That's it. They are attacking the people of Israel. Every time Israel goes into a place, they're striking Hezbollah terrorist organization. They're trying to topple the Ayatollah regime in Iran. And it's like you're like, "Oh, Israel killed a priest." It's like the one time where there is a sort of a like a casualty that happens by accident, the world is up in arms. People are talking about it. But in its essence, Iran wants to kill everyone in the land. That's why we're at this war. >> That's actually a point that I wanted to touch on and make sure because it is always glossed over or not even addressed. Huckabee mentioned this to Tucker Carlson in their discussion. And it was just glossed over and but if we wanted to commit genocide, this war would have been over October 8th within an hour. It would have been done. We've had hundreds of our soldiers die. Why would we do that? Why would we allow our soldiers to go because we're so afraid of killing any sort of innocent civilian that we allow that to happen. But that is just not even addressed. It's not related to when it's so clear. Uh Fuentes is like, "Oh, we're bringing in all of these supplies and the food so that we It's like shooting crackers in a barrel. We don't need to do that. We don't need And they all know we don't need to do that, which is where you can see the sinister twisting and distortions because they themselves know that that doesn't make any sense. I see a massive miracle happening here um with all these with all the rockets like we just talked about last night. And I don't want to miss this. And I want to get Jeremy's uh uh thought on on This is not happening anywhere else in the world. This is a obvious miracle for those that have eyes to see it. There's a There's real miracle at play. A hundred missiles were shot from Lebanon last night >> a hundred. Almost a hundred. Almost two hundred. Like a hundred and eighty. That's what the latest numbers are. One night mass amounts hundred whatever it was a hundred plus two hundred whatever it is into the Galilee region. There's there's hundreds of thousands of Jewish homes and families there. Um no one it's it's been reported no one was killed. Jeremy how do you how do you um and that's just last night and then we look at the whole war. You just men- mentioned that the minute I get the numbers >> real quick before we dive into that cuz I think this is interesting um cuz last year the 12-day war in June 2025 you had 550 to 600 ballistic missiles fired from Iran. 28 people killed but there was 53,000 claims made to the government of damage. Like damage to property, to homes. Um and reportedly the Israeli government spent almost 3 billion shekels just giving compensation to citizens, right? This year we're now on I think today's day 12, right? >> 13. Of the war? 13? Day 13 of the war. 600 missiles launched from Iran. 900 rockets and drones and missiles fired from Lebanon. Um and so far damage claims are less than 10,000. So a fraction of what they were and like 12, 13 people killed in Israel. Um which is awful but like they it I guess there's a lot of people saying that this war is much worse than than the war eight months ago. There's a all these propaganda on social media. Tel Aviv burning. Tel Aviv burning over and over again. Netanyahu's brother Ido was murdered was was killed and his whole family killed. Ben Gvir killed. You know, it's like so much falsehood like you know, 10x 100x what's ever been before. >> why they're not letting any videos and I and then I'm like I just spoke to my sister-in-law that went to Tel Aviv. She's like yeah, it was great. We went to >> all these Israelis just like walking down the street like here's Tel Aviv, you know, in case you're wondering. Well, the reason why there's so many lies that Tel Aviv is being destroyed and all these people are being killed is because there are over miracles that are happening right now. They're like hundreds of rockets are being shot onto Israel and the world's looking, well, that should really decimate Tel Aviv and yet still there's less than $10,000 worth of damages. No one's being killed. It's like a miracle of God that we are being protected in a supernatural way. There's no way about it. But I want to say something else that the real miracle to me is look at in this week's Torah portion, it says that Moses asked to see the glory of God. And God says, "No, you can't see my face. You can only see me from behind." And sometimes you can only see the glory of God when looking from behind. You have to like look at the past and then look at what's happening. October 7th in some ways saved Israel. Because imagine if we would have been up against Iran, the Hamas, the Houthis, Lebanon, all at the same time. I mean, we can Hezbollah right now after the people operation, after the devastation, Iran America is attacking Iran if they all would have pounced on us at the same time with us not being ready. I don't know if Israel would have made that. Meaning, I don't know if we would have survived that. To see now that all of this is unfolding in what seemingly the most merciful way possible that allows us to rise up and slowly neutralize all these threats. That a miracle is happening that we were saved on October 7th. Had they coordinated, it would have been devastating. >> Did you guys feel that? I remember in Judea around around Israel, I feel like everyone I was talking to had real moments of existential confrontation with how vulnerable we really are. Like that this could even there were days where it's like this could be it right now. We're so weakened and disoriented and >> What I'm saying is that we didn't appreciate even how weak we were. Only now are we realizing how powerful Iran is. Do you know how big Iran is? I didn't know. It's more than two times as large as Texas 90 million people the largest army in the world twice as big do you know what I mean it's a huge country and America is up in there a full-blown attack against Iran and they're still firing missiles at Israel and so like had we been caught with our pants down not ready in some sort of delusion of peace and soon there's going to be peace in the Middle East cuz we'll give over land and then we'll make peace and then would have attacked us I mean it's like unbelievable we were so vulnerable and so arrogant at the same time >> Can I ask you a question I'm sorry I interrupted I'm sorry I have a real question I don't have the answer to I'm just throwing it out here for you guys How is it that Israel has complete air control over Iran flying at will it seems like they're like really decimated pounded into the ground yet they're still managing to shoot off these missiles attack the Straits of Hormuz who's who's making the call That's what I want >> Like the current Ayatollah they they brought him in with the cardboard he was [laughter] a cardboard cutout I got some memes for you but just to answer your question first cuz yeah I saw I have stats written down here Israeli officials estimate that they've currently degraded Iran's missile launching launching capabilities by 80% But last night we had two alerts and the night before we had five alerts so like >> Which is up because it went down Yeah it did go down two nights ago five sirens in one night like we were like okay they've destroyed 80% of their launchers Not feeling that right now they're also saying that they could that could be reduced to as little as 5% in the coming days what I've heard I don't know how you know what I've heard is that every time they have a missile launches the US and Israel immediately intelligence locks on that missile launch launching site and immediately >> glowing glowing red like it's hot And also a lot of them are they you know they're coming out underground or they're mobile missile launchers that are on the back of a truck >> So they've been prepping for this for a long time And it's also a huge country. Even if there's hundreds of planes in the air, you think about how massive Iran is, there's just a lot of territory to shoot missiles from. My my my thought was is but making up what Jeremy just talked about about the miracle of of of of the the slow like progression of this thing that is really Israel's survival. It's it's a miracle of God that this was slow and not all at once. Um and and just thinking about that in in light of the greatest enemy of Israel is now represented on stages and television across the world in a car cardboard cutout. >> [laughter] >> That's the way they presented themselves. >> Got some great memes. I'm going to give our editors a little bit of those up on the screen. You did a little bit of research into this on why this would happen. Um Amit Segal posted some things about this as well here in Israel. >> cardboard Ayatollah is what he's calling it. >> of the cardboard? It would seem to me if you were if you had a falling regime, you would come out in a wheelchair even if you could. Um there's thought that maybe they would >> this actually? And if you don't know Amit Segal is like one of the forefront conservative commentators in Israel and he has a really great newsletter called It's Noon in Israel. Comes out every day at noon. It's fantastic. Yeah. Pow, you know, information packed. He said, "Iran had its own comedic moment this week when a life-size cutout of Mojtaba Khamenei, I don't know how you say his name, held together with tape." I thought this was AI by the way. Like I didn't think this was real. "Was carried on stage to roaring crowds at the Tehran allegiance rally in Revolution Square." And state media broadcast regime loyalists hailing and swearing allegiance to a cardboard Khamenei. And get this Luke, you know they also couldn't sit down because the last say if someone was to stop clapping, then it would have been seen as disloyalty. Do you know they clapped 11 minutes straight? No, well. That's what happened. That was made the difference. That was the difference. >> [laughter] >> They literally said they had to clap to him. Yeah, hysterical. According to Iranian state media, Khamenei sustained leg injuries in in the initial US Israeli strikes on Iran. The injury but then he's like if he sustained leg leg injuries, in what world is it better to carry a cardboard cutout of you on stage instead of being rolled out in a wheelchair? So, his his his conjecture is that possibly the strike that took out Khamenei Jr.'s legs might have actually done a lot more and he might be in a coma and not even be aware that he is the new Ayatollah. I mean, if I was being up for Ayatollah, I think I would have to be in a coma state of mind to to to accept such a like he's obviously nobody's saying me, you know, the Babylon B >> Yeah, so basically like he he was appointed 2 days ago. He hasn't made one appearance, one speech, one video, or a written statement. Like nobody's seen him and he's >> not to see the correlation between the Book of Esther and this I this this how this is all playing out. What did Haman do? He built the gallows to hang Mordecai. Mhm. And [clears throat] he was hung on those very gallows. And here the Ayatollah and his whole family and his whole world of people are establishing this nuclear program in order to wipe Israel off the map and that very nuclear program is the reason they were wiped off the map and they're sitting there all together and they're they're a missile falls on them. 10 sons of Haman were hanged and his sons are being systematically wiped out. Like to not see the correlation between what happened in the Book of Esther and uh what's happening right now and to see that this is really about light and darkness. It's almost like I was thinking about it. When Adam ate from the tree, when before eating from the tree in the Garden of Eden, there was he was a being of light. And what did he want to do? The sages of Israel say I want to get the whole theological debate about it but this is he didn't want to walk with God and receive all of this goodness for what? He would nothing. He didn't do anything. So, he wanted to eat from the tree to infuse within himself this evil inclination, then he could overcome it. And whether that was right or wrong, it was clearly wrong because God wants our obedience. But, in the end of the day, throughout history, there's a sifting out of good and evil and good and evil. And now we're in these days where we're seeing good and evil face off in this way. And I think that's what we see playing out, and we need to understand it through a biblical prism. Otherwise, it doesn't even make any sense. Well, the real challenge with that is like what is victory for Iran? What does that look like? Annihilation of Israel, right? I mean To me, the answer is just survival. If they're able >> saying to survive? >> Yeah, if they're just able to survive, then they win. >> yeah. And that's what's really challenging right now because they're surviving with cardboard boxes, and people are cheering. You know it's a real problem because like their their regime is still shooting missiles, they're still calling the shots, they're still putting a lot of pressure on Hormuz. Meaning, how are we going to actually defeat them because all they need to do is survive. Israel needs to win, America needs to win, and Trump is already declaring victory. And that's really problematic. Like, what does that even mean? >> to say this you can't help but to see Saul. Right? What happened with Saul is he was commanded by Samuel, wipe them all out, and he didn't do it. And one Agag survived that night, and that was enough to keep Amalek alive in now Iran and all of history from Haman to Hitler to the Ayatollah just because we did not follow God's commandment to wipe them out. And that was why Saul lost the kingdom, which is why I want to actually say to you guys, and it's a testimony to the depth of our friendship, that we didn't even talk to you about this, and I'm just springing this on you, but Jeremy and I would like to make a formal announcement. Are you ready? You hadn't even told us about this. We haven't even told you about this. [laughter] We've been planning this for a while. What are you doing? >> big deal, and I want to say it right here and right now because it it just ties into this perfectly. We have after a lot of prayer and reflection realized that what is one of the great callings of our generation right now? To bring knowledge of God into the world and who are we to do that? We're nobody, but who is the prophets of Israel? Isaiah and Ezekiel and Jeremiah. When you read through Joshua, Judges, Kings, the prophets of Israel, you're able to see everything that's happening now makes sense. And so we are now launching the prophets of Israel daily. Ooh. Every single day Jeremy and I are going to put out another chapter. So for those people that have read a few chapters here, a few chapter there and really want to experience the entire journey of the prophets of Israel, that's what we're doing. And this is not there's no charge. We're not This is just if you want to be on this journey with us, join the journey. That's fantastic. >> yeah, so we'll put the the link below. Yeah. Yeah? You know what I I just want to highlight that. It's so powerful because last week we talked a lot about the Temple Mount and then I went home and just in my daily reading I read uh uh Isaiah 2 and I was I was like, "Boy, that would have really been impacted the show if I had read that before because it's just all about the Temple Mount and the reality and when people from a from a religious perspective these these voices in our world today from a religious perspective are talking about things that are just absolutely not in alignment with biblical values. They're not in alignment with biblical prophecy. It's not in alignment with the with any of the prophets of the Bible. And when you go and you just read it. Just read the Bible especially with you guys to be able to say, "Hey, there's some Jewish thought on the way that this has been understood for thousands of years." Jewish people have been studying this for thousands of years. It can just bring such light and truth to the world in a very um complex misinformation uh you know, world uh the Bible I think so many billions of people around the world can agree that the Bible it holds the answers. And so I think this is phenomenal. Something I know you have this in Jewish circles, but I think it's also in Christianity that a lot of people have a tough time with the prophets. They they don't read it or they read it and don't understand it. It's confusing. And so I think the opportunity for people to actually understand the prophets and how they're relating to our time because I know like before I ever came to Israel, we came to Israel like I didn't understand the prophets. But when you connect prophecy to reality and to the to what's actually happening in our times right now, it makes so much more sense. I think it's amazing. >> but it's not in the place of the actual prophets. >> going to say, are you actually are going to get bring back prophecy to Israel? Is that the goal? Are you are you guys going Well, I was going to say Isaiah chapter 2 that you said says the Torah will go forth from Zion and the word of God from Jerusalem. You're like, well, how is the word of God going to go from this land? And there's really only one book that says, "Thus says the Lord." Like the word of God. >> Okay. We need that. Yeah, let's bring that to the world and let the cards fall as they may. The truth will be revealed for everyone. What's the side of truth? What's the try to falsehood? How is this world all playing? And so that really is the vision because the world Everyone knows about the Bible, but systematically going through it every chapter once a day every day from the beginning to the end all the words of the prophets starting in Joshua starting in Joshua all the way through the prophets all the way through the prophets all the way through. >> It's already changed my life. It's already changed my life and that's why there is one there's an assignment that comes with some responsibility. The real suggestion is not just to show up and listen to what we're saying and sharing that because we're going to go into the actual text very deeply also, but to read the chapter. We are not a replacement for that. The right the words of Samuel the prophet that wrote most of it and the words of Isaiah, Ezekiel, you can't look to us as a replacement for that. Read the chapter and then join together on this journey and we want to hear from also everybody. You have thoughts, you want to hear more of a thing, less of a thing. We we this is a journey that we're taking together. That's the reason we really did this. >> Yeah. That's awesome. >> It's like the Judean diet. Why did I start the Judean diet? Cuz I wanted to lose weight. >> [laughter] >> Right? Why did Why did we decide to do this? Because we wanted to do it for us. To really go into the text. And so And we said, "This is not We don't want to charge anything for this. This doesn't belong to us." Right? This belongs to the world, not just to the nation of Israel. We're custodians of it. And we've And we've held on to it before a purpose to share that with the world. So, it is So, you could reach out also. You know, you could reach out to Tabitha at the landofisrael.com. There's a link below also. But if you have any challenge with that, you could reach out also. Yeah. I want to say I I just to highlight this point again is is a reporter from the New York Times contacted me this week. And so I had this interview with the New York Times. And they were talking about, "So, what is going on with the Christians? You know, they've got these Christian Zionist and these these And then the Jews. But then the the Christian Zionist, are they really pro Cuz is it not just all just based on a, you know, Jesus is going to come and then And then you're no longer really Zionist anymore because you're just in it for what you want out of it." And so this New York Times guy Of course they're they're just trying to pit, you know, people against each other. They're trying to say, "Well, you're not real friends of Israel, you know, cuz you have your own agenda." I said, "Well, no, actually I'm I you know, from my perspective, this is a Jewish story and it will be a Jewish story and it will It was and it is and it will continue to be a Jewish story. And I'm just happy to be a part of the team." Um and I don't know how that's going to actually show up in the text. >> [laughter] [laughter] >> They're probably They're not going to put anything that of course makes us look good in there. Um but it just highlighted to me again that this is a Jewish story and it always has been. The whole book is a Jewish story. And that this kind of opportunity for people to learn biblical truths from Jewish rabbis is such a critical need. It's not a Jewish story. Oh, come on. You think this is a Jewish story? Look at the Bible. >> That's like saying that the story of the temple is a story about Kohanim. No, no, I think it I think Listen, it encompasses the whole I just want to explain what I said for those that don't know the words that I just said. I said, "We're reading about the temple and the tabernacle." And the that's just a story about the cohanim, the priests. Why? Because they were the administering in the temple? No, this is a a story about all of humanity. But, let's say it like this. Is it an American story? Is it a Chinese story? Is it an African story? No, the Jewish people are leading. That's what I'm trying to say. The Jewish people are leading the story that lies Isaiah 2. Yeah, but it but you can't say that goes forth to the nations from there. People I have a big problem with people that look at the Bible as a prophecy to America. Doesn't work. It doesn't like when you take the whole book and you say, "Oh, this is a prophecy about New York and the the Twin Towers." And No, the prophets of Israel weren't looking at New York or or drones flying to California. There's going to be some Christian that's going to say there's some prophecy, you know, that's told that drones would fly to California. I'm not a bastard. I mean, just it's just not I think it's a mistake for Americans not to think that it wasn't written for them, too. God is speaking to America in the Bible through the prophets. >> You're correct, I think, but without the focus and the emphasis on Zion. [clears throat] >> Here's the problem. Jerusalem. >> Yeah. But, there's also an independent message. Think about Nineveh, right? God sent Jo- right, Jo- God sent Jonah to go and tell the people of Nineveh. No, so why did Jonah run away? Because he was afraid, "Oh, the Jews are such a stiff-necked people. You try to warn them and they're like, 'Kill him!'" And we're so rebellious and stiff-necked and he was afraid that the people of Nineveh would actually listen to God and repent, which is actually what happened. >> But, their pathway to redemption was through a Jewish prophet from the land of Israel from the God of Israel. And and I would say that their repentance was stop killing Jews. That would be part of the repentance of Nineveh. >> They were the most lethal, deadly force against Jews there was. And that that repentance led them away from Okay, you know what, but I disagree with you. I just do because think about the Canaanites. Why did God say to Israel, "Go and dispossess the Canaanites of the land. The land belongs to you. However, if you follow in their ways with the depth of evil that they're doing, then you don't deserve the land either. Meaning that there is a also a message of morality to the nations that they are responsible for. Perhaps there's a Jewish prophet that will come to warn them, but that doesn't mean that God is not looking at every single human being with expectations of righteousness, with believing in humanity. And that's I think part of what the mission the message of Israel is to the world. We're the chosen people, what? For what? What are we chosen for? To te- teach the world that they're all chosen. We're God's chosen in order to empower the nations. >> I would say I think we're getting off on a theological show here. >> is a good discussion. It's a >> Chosen and Rabbi Jeremy is going to have to get on this. Chosen to be a part of the Jewish story, that's what I would say. The nations can be a part of this story. It's a global story. >> a global story, but the Jewish people are leading the story. It's It's all about Jerusalem. >> in Jerusalem and goes out to the world. >> chosen to that they could be a part of his story? We're all a part of his story. That's not the Jewish story. It's the story of the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. The God of Israel with the God of the world. And do we want to play a part in his story because a German roofer in in in in Berlin has the ability to play a serious role in the unfolding of redemption. Just a simple man But he can't do it with and direct and and and reject Jerusalem. >> to try to just make shalom. Because what Josh is trying to do is he's trying to fight against >> replacement theology. Where there is an entire world of people that will respect the Bible or respect religion and say, "Oh, this has nothing to do with Israel. Now Rome is the new Jerusalem. Now the Christians are the new Israel. This is all about what's happening in their world and the Jews have nothing to do with it." And Josh is saying, "No, no, no. The Jews haven't been replaced. They are still the center. The prophecies are being fulfilled through them. This is a part of that and you can now be a part of God's story, but don't ever try to replace the Jewish people. It still has to do with them. They are chosen and was an everlasting covenant and that covenant hasn't been broken. What you're saying is like saying, "Well, we've been chosen in order to be a blessing to the world." It really is all about the world. So, you're really saying the same thing. You're just coming from two different angles. I think we're saying but I'm also saying that if the nations agree with Ari, so I I just taking the opportunity. And it's fun. It's It's an interesting and important discussion, but I think if the nations really return to the truth of the Bible and they don't say, "Ah, the Old Testament." No, but they actually dive in and understand this is the word of the living God of Israel, then they will be pulled towards light and truth. And then they will look at what's happening and even if they're not necessarily supporting Israel from a place of biblical Genesis 12:3, he who blesses Israel be blessed. The If they have a real compass about what is light and what is dark and what is truth and what is false and what is kindness and compassion and what is evil and murder, then they will be supporting Israel when they just look at who we are fighting against. What is it You don't hear You don't hear from Tucker Carlson about the 50,000 something That's what I've heard, 50,000 civilians that were murdered about the girl that was 16-year-old girl that was as hung as a punishment for being raped and acid thrown in their face. He just wants to conflate conservatism in America with the Ayatollah and say somehow they're the same thing and Israel has transgender story time hour with one hand and then we're Messianic people that want to build a temple on the other. >> what the Bible >> was a tirade of ADHD. What the Bible does is it gives perspective of time that this is an ancient war and Trump just declaring victory. It's like fast-food warfare. It's like, "All right, 2 weeks, we're in, we're out. It tastes good. It's under 30 minutes and we're moving on to the next thing." You're like, "Wait, wait. This is an ancient war. It didn't start 2 weeks ago and it didn't start 2 years ago. This is really a battle between good and evil." And when we reference Amalek, Amalek is just a force of evil in the world. It doesn't mean that we have to kill every German, but Hitler and the Nazi regime, that needed to be stopped. The Ayatollah and that regime, that needs to be ended. That needs to be done with. And until we actually recognize that that's evil that needs to be wiped out, then we're never going to win. I have a question and I will throw this to all of you guys and because I saw an opinion piece this week that said and and I thought it was really enlightening cuz it said um and I'll just paraphrase it if you people that fight against Israel because they don't understand it was the basis of it. They they look at Israel and they say out of the ashes of the Holocaust a nation was born. How does that happen? That's a a nation was not only born but it was born after 2,000 years of destruction and desolation and pogroms and and evil. How does this miracle happen? It it defies uh you know, the the the very essence of of uh just normality in the world. It doesn't it doesn't make sense. Um 100 missiles, 200 missiles flying no one's killed. Um uh 13 days of flying over Iran and no soldiers are killed. It's a massive war. Israeli soldiers are not dying in Iran. No soldiers have died in the Iranian battle. It doesn't make any practical sense and therefore because of the like you said what you how do you say it? The the miracles, the the overt miracles overt overt miracles that are happening. My thought here is is that so if they can't digest the fact of an open miracle then they have to create another realm. They have to say, oh it can't be open miracles cuz we don't really believe in God. We don't believe that this could be happening. So in order for the Jews to to get these kind of results, they've got to be pulling strings in the background somewhere and then that leads there's demonic things at work cuz they don't believe it's God. Conspiracies open and then they're like, oh and he's pulling strings with presidents and leaders around the world and the Jews rule everything because nobody else in the world has these kind of results. And therefore they become an enemy of God and an enemy of the story. The open miracles don't make sense to them and therefore they fight against it. Jeremy, how is that is Is do you feel like that's true? That This was an opinion I saw. I feel like that's very true. And the reason why these people are fighting so so tooth and nail against Israel, the Jewish people, could just be based out of this framing. Well, it's just like fundamentally I I believe that Isaiah calls Israel God's witness. And as long as the Jewish people exist, we are a witness that God exists. We are his people in his everlasting covenant with us, an eternal people. We just um defy laws of nature, that defy the laws of history, defy the laws of war. I mean, never mind a soldier not being killed. There hasn't even been a plane malfunction. Meaning, it's thousands of kilometers of flights every day, hundreds of planes. We are defying all laws of anything rational. And so, you have to believe in the super rational, or you have to believe in conspiracies. So, those that are connected to the Bible, they're going to say like, "Okay, I see now. There's something special about these people. There's something that's unique about these people. There's something that is supernatural about them." >> That's the only way to comprehend it. As a Jew in Israel, I can tell you that that you look at that, the world looks at this exceptional no technical difficulties, perfect precision beepers, and then they look at October 7th, and they're like, "What?" That degree of overwhelming negligent incompetence on the one hand, and then the beepers and the Mossad and there it had to be a cover-up. But as Jews from the inside, we know, "Nope. It was just one moment where God was like, 'You know what? I want you to see what this looks like when I'm not interfere interfering and intervening on your behalf out of my love for you despite your undeservingness. This is what that looks like.' And that's what was happening there." Well, that's just so beautiful, because so many people see October 7th as some sort of conspiracy that the Jews did to themselves, and really it's a beautiful manifestation of what would happen when God's covering and his shielding and his protection and his providence is just removed. There's hester panim, there's a hidden face that just God hides himself for just a day, and then you can see the devastation that would naturally happen to October 7th. And again, I only feel like now do we realize how much protection there still was. The fact that it wasn't a coordinated attack is just miraculous. Every day we need to be thanking Hashem for such a miracle. Talking about coordination, Luke, I just want to throw this in there cuz this was super heartwarming for me. I guess it kind of awakened that there is a little bit of patriotism in me and to America. And I guess I just say this because it's been it's been hard. I've I've grown up here in Israel since I was 14. And and and I a lot of that time in Israel, I remember very clearly, you know, the the Obama was elected and I'm in Jerusalem and I'm there was a wait of like will America stand with Israel? And it was like just, you know, as a very young teenager and, you know, ran two terms under this and and, you know, it was just a a lot of of hardship. And so my feeling back to America growing up was is there resisting Israel and it's and it's and and way I believe Israel should be treated. And so therefore I kind of lost a little bit of that patriotism to America because America was not aligning itself in in my biblical view of of what Israel is in support. And so when I saw this video, I think it kind of touched my heart in a way because I saw the good of America and its cooperation with the people of Israel, the people of God in fighting against the most radical anti-God, anti-Israel, anti-American regime. And I want to play this cuz um talk about cooperation. This is the cooperation that I love. I want to play it. Mobile 97. You go for 97. It is a great honor for us to fight with you. You are doing a great job. Thank you very much. Likewise, gentlemen. Please be safe out there. Strike hard. See you. This is two fighter pilots, an American fighter jet and an Israeli fighter jet. This is their communication that was released to the public over over over Iran. Um to me that's that's that's just amazing. I don't know. How do you guys feel about that? >> You know, I'll tell you it reminds me of Pete Hegseth's speech that he gave and at the end he quotes Psalms. And he like blesses the soldiers that are all fighting now on behalf of the side of good and to me that was just the heart of the United States that could have been lost with the Obama administration cuz the United States can kind of go one way or the other, but right now they are so aligned with the Bible, aligned with the good. It really is something to take pride in. >> And I'm I'm sort of surprised when you said this shows there's a little patriotism in me. I think there's a little bit more than a little patriotism in you. I know for me there's a lot of patriotism. >> one fight with Josh Bernstein. >> [laughter] >> No, but I feel very patriotic for America because as a Jew you have to zoom out. You have to zoom out and you have to see the greater picture and America has been a bastion of blessing and safety and security towards the nation of Israel, towards the Jewish people from Jews fleeing the Holocaust. Yes, that happened with Roosevelt and he turned them back the USS St. Louis and there were things that are dark, shameful, blemishes. But as a as a whole America is a country that I believe is is aspiring to goodness, to righteousness because of their biblical foundation and they're being assaulted with all of these different perspectives and all of these Tucker saying this is Christianity and that's Christianity and but I think there's a deep desire to be good and to be true and they have a long track record of of falling down on the side of goodness and morality in the world. And so if I had two lives, listen, Israel is my nation, it's my people, it's my land. This is where I belong. This is my country. There's no two ways about it. That being said, if I had two lives to give, I would give one for America too because I feel tremendous gratitude and patriotism for that country and I'm praying for the for their better angels to emerge and it seems like they are right now. >> Well, I'll tell you what's really telling is that you know, most people see this is like a war of Western Civilization against this radical Jihad Ayatollah regime, but it's only America and Israel. The the NATO countries, even though American bases have been attacked, Cyprus has been attacked, Europe has pretty much stayed on the sidelines and the only people that have risen up to take on this dark evil regime is the United States and America the United States and Israel and that's really telling. It really shows that there is like a common heart there, common values that are still standing strong. Mhm. There's two headlines that I wanted to bring up really quickly and that is that Iran boasts it has destroyed hundreds of US missiles with its buildings and secondly Iran warns US it has huge stockpile of supreme leaders. That was okay, that was a I appreciate you adding me to this group, this Iowa group. That's all from the Babylon Bee, you got to give give the Babylon Bee some some credit every now and then. Josh, there's a cool story. >> want to introduce Yeah, I did. Yeah, no, I just talking about cool stories and you know, we always try to keep things positive and we put polls out on our platforms yesterday and everybody said we want to hear what's happening in Israel. And we don't want to hear about you know, what's happening everywhere. And so anyways, like people want to know what's happening biblically and they want to know what's happening in Israel because even though people do watch like Fox News, they're also you know, on Twitter and Instagram and Facebook and they're like everybody's going Tel Aviv's burning, Tel Aviv's burning. All of Israel's leaders have been assassinated and they're like, what in the world is going on, right? So they want to know what's actually happening. I thought this is a really cool story from the Jerusalem Post of a senior IDF officer talking about the details of the first 40 seconds of the war and he said assassinating the supreme leader and all of the top echelon of the Iranian military and the IRGC in around half a minute was made possible by a giant and incredibly coordinated air strike which took months of planning. In 40 seconds at 8:15 a.m. on February 28th, Khamenei, IRGC commander, Pakpour, I'm not going to say all the rest of these guys' names, but the military commander, defense minister, national defense council secretary, uh top aides, and 35 other top officials were killed in the first 40 seconds of the war. And it took 200 aircraft all flying 1,000 to 1,500 km to strike hundreds of targets all in just a little over half a second. That was news to me, and I think that's news to the world. That that must have just been breaking that that all of that happened within about 45 seconds. And that was like force and power that like has not been seen in a long time. You're talking about US military, >> Possibly ever. Israeli military, F-15s, F-16s, F-35s all coordinating together. I think of old world wars, um that's what you that's how you won the war. You took out the other leadership. Um today it seems to be uh a little different game going on here, but it would definitely not happen in 45 seconds. They that's just miraculous to me. Well, I feel like as long as the Basij, which is sort of the military protection of the Ayatollah regime, has Kalashnikovs, they're the ones that are going to be uh calling the shots. They're until we actually figure out a way to topple not just the political leadership or the spiritual leadership, but the actual people holding the guns that are holding the people of Iran under hostage, then there's uh they're they're they're the ones that have the guns. Yeah, well, it's clear to me that if you clap for 11 minutes straight, it's clear that people are are scared to still not uh to disagree with the leading faction. Um Luke, you had some intelligence uh or you just you you got some intelligence, yeah. Uh they appreciate that that the uh the US is estimating that that the the regime is not yet at a at a crumble point. Oh, you're talking about the California might be in danger. >> That's what I wanted to bring up. >> No, I'm talking about the Iranian regime, not the California regime. >> Oh. Well, that's [laughter] the that's the that's a manifestation of this. >> Which story are we going to hear? >> No, so if we're talking about the Ayatollah regime, it's just it's really important to note that even though they attacked so many Arab countries, not one Arab country yet has joined in. All eyes are on Iran. Is the regime going to stop? Is it going to topple? What's going to happen? So, they don't want to make um enemies right now because they're seeing like, "Uh-oh, those missiles were targeted at us." And so, China's watching, Russia's watching, all the Arab countries are watching. And really the like for Iran to win, they just need to survive. For America and Israel to win, the regime has to be toppled. Right, and they Right now, US intelligence, this is just one report, is indicating that Iran's leadership remains largely intact, is not at risk of collapse uh even after 13 days of the war. And their leader is displayed in cardboard. >> And their leader is holding up being held up by tape, yeah. It makes you wonder So, just question, is that from the State Department where's that from? What is that intelligence based on? >> I do think that for the regime to collapse, there's going to have to be a massive element of the people of Iran. Like, I don't think it's only going to collapse from outside sources. I think there's going to have to be the people of Iran have to rise up and force again and and make that happen. Well, it also could be that California is going to be attacked and that would just change the game. >> Woah, massively. That would massively change the game. What what what are you talking about? >> to. Uh CBS, ABC, Reuters, everybody's you know, reporting this that uh there's a the FBI has issued warnings against a potential Iranian attack on the West Coast in California in specific, that there would be a ship off the, you know, in the in the in the waters and fire drones out and just barrage the West Coast with weaponized How would they have a ship? I thought they didn't have any ships left. I guess they have submarines, they have ships that >> No, I don't know if they have any, but they could just take a ship from Russia, they Yes, so they a way to get a ship, but what's important is that America would learn when they chant death to America, when they chant death to Yeah, they mean it and if they can, they will. And what's interesting is this this is a report from before the war started. The FBI says, quote, we recently acquired information that as early February 2026, Iran allegedly aspired to conduct a surprise attack using unmanned aerial vehicles from an unidentified vessel off the coast of the United States homeland specifically against targets in California. So this is like something they've been tracking for a while even before the war broke out. Obviously nobody knows. Everybody's like, oh it's crazy, Iran can't reach California from from, you know, it's like 7,000 miles or whatever, but they didn't read the details of they're saying, no, there's like a unidentified vessel that we think is like lurking off the coast of California. I I saw Megan Kelly say something that was very telling and very confusing for me. She said, this is Israel's war, no American should have to die for Israel's war. Think about the consequences here. Think about how many Iranian sleeper cells we have here in America. >> She actually said that? >> Yes. And like they who knows what they'll do and I'm like, did you hear what she just said? There are sleeper cells from Iran in America. Isn't it better right now that this comes out on our terms rather than theirs? Right? If they're Think about That's what I wish Trump would say. People need to understand that Trump should say, if you could only see what would happen if I didn't do this, you're hating me for this, but I'm saving the country and arguably the entire world. They were going to launch weaponized drones now and if we hadn't done this, that's what would be happening right now. The reality is all right, there are sleeper cells in the US. I just saw this pop up. I don't know if you saw that. >> You got to show that. Show that to >> don't worry. We'll put it on the screen. Is that too political? Uh there's this other Did you read this yet on the channel? >> No, no, that that was fantastic. >> like the day for memes. Every 2026, the year when women in pants drop bombs on men in dresses. I think that was that was epic. Cool. I think they're they're writing that specifically to infuriate the idolists. >> [laughter] >> They hate women, so the fact that that Josh, there's I just pulled up the news while we were recording to see if anything had happened while we were recording. And I I thought this was a it's just a you know, more miracle stories. That's what we like That's like the main thing we like to put on our channel is when really positive miracles happen. Um and I saw this, a house in a moshav in Emek Hefer was hit Wednesday night. So last night, there was actually a house struck by a missile barrage launched by Hezbollah. Um and the the house the the rocket hit this house and the only spot that was not damaged was the safe room, which the whole entire family was inside. Should you show this picture? Look at this picture. >> which obviously like that's the Yeah, like like that's the point of a safe room, right? But sometimes direct hits by missiles, especially ballistic missiles, you know, a safe room doesn't even protect you. >> a safe room. All eight >> So missile hits a house, destroys the entire house. Yeah, we'll show the the picture up on the screen. Um but the entire family was safe inside the one room in the house that remained intact. Wow. Also brand new 10 minutes ago, Iran launched their fourth ballistic missile salvo at Israel since midnight. They're So we're probably getting an alarm here in a minute. Right. Anytime now. Hey, you guys haven't been in our bomb shelter yet. It's my time. So we just take take the audience with us. Um I do want to mention on the on the show that uh this is a big deal about the crisis in California with with um with with these Who knows what could be attacked, but but but the drone threat. Uh this hasn't happened since the Russian threat uh against you I US in the '60s. So we've This is a really big deal. America has not faced threats of any kind like this. I mean, we had 9/11, um but an actual uh drone attacks, missiles being launched, uh drone you know, bombs being threats of of uh infiltrations like this at this level have not happened since 60. So, this is this a really big deal that threatens uh California. And uh you know, I think we mentioned the the threat uh success you know, efficiently, but I just want to say this is a massive change in America. Uh in my New York Times um uh interview, uh he asked, "W- What do you think about the you know, all these people that are that are anti-Israel?" I said, "Well, they were anti-Israel before." I said, "I believe that these anti-Israel people are going to have an opportunity to actually see the truth that Israel is the best friend America ever had as this war continues and as Israel is successful in defeating Israel's uh America not only Israel's greatest enemy, but America's greatest enemy, hopefully these people will be able to see the truth as it relates to what's actually happening and stop being anti-Israel." That's what I told him. I I really think that there's an opportunity here for people to see the truth that Israel's the greatest friend uh America has ever dreamed to have. I said, "Listen, Pete Hegseth has has been saying this. It's not just It's not just like a This is the truth of what's actually happening. So, when these threats attack America, I think it's a great opportunity for us to be able to voice, 'Hey guys, you do realize this is now indeed America's enemy just as it is Israel's.' I just think it's just so interesting that the regime was so locked on death to America and death to Israel. Like they've been separated out because in some ways Israel and America are the last countries that really represent the Bible. Mhm. They really represent God's ways in the world. That they really represent at least the heart of what it is um to live and build a society based on the values of the Bible. That's why they're being targeted. And so, the fact that now America's um kind of under attack or at least under threats of being attacked, it's just waking up. People need to ask themselves like, "Why are was this regime so locked in on death to America chanting it for more than a decade. What did they hate about America? They don't share a border. They don't really I mean there's no real conflict in theory. There's only conflict in theology. That's really the issue. Yeah. But you don't think that this would be damaging though for an attack on California? You're saying people see that Israel's the best friend but the Tucker Carlson's the Candace Owens they're going to be saying look this is we're paying a real price for Israel's war. That's what the whole narrative's going to be. >> I'm saying the common people have an opportunity to see some common sense realities. So what would you say to them? What would I say to What would you say to that? Meaning I don't think that it's Israel's war. I think that President Trump is doing what's best for America. >> Yeah. >> Period. That's why it's very damaging I think when Israeli politicians are saying thank you Donald Trump. Thank you. Stop saying thank you. Either it's in America's interest or it's not and if Americans >> a welcome. You're welcome you know. >> No, not even you're welcome. It's like let's do the we're doing this together. We're glad that you see the reality of the this threat towards America. You see the Jihad against all of Europe against America against everyone that is not Muslim that this is a theological war going for everybody and that you're joining us in the tip of the spear in uprooting this evil before it attacks America. Thank you for joining us but we would do this way one way or the other. That's critical but that's what my answer would be. That these attacks they were planning this drone attack from a long time ago before this happened. They're they've been planning the destruction of America for a long time and Trump has enough courage and sober clarity to be able to see that and attack the global Jihad. Clearly Tucker doesn't think there's a global Jihad because he's on the side of the Jihad. You've you heard him say it before. Israel against all of these Arab countries we're talking about hundreds of thousands millions to one. I forgot the numbers that he said but that's not much of a fight. He doesn't know that God sent home all of the Israelites because he said there's too many of you. You need to be so outnumbered as a testimony to my protection and strength going through you. And so he doesn't see that. So he's just looking at a school yard fight and he sees the Jihad and the whole Arab world and he sees little Israel and he's like, "I'm with them." It doesn't matter morality, not morality. I want to buy the a house in Qatar. I want to be on the side of those that will ensure that I have the most safety and security. It doesn't matter morality or not. And now I'm going to build a house of cards around that. That's what it's really about. >> Yeah. Could we end with uh I know we just have a few minutes left here about uh prayer. Can we talk about prayer for a minute? >> Can we show this video? >> to show that video. It's so powerful. IDF soldiers um all gathered. I'm talking about hundreds and hundreds of IDF soldiers all gathered together and this is praying and Jeremy maybe you could tell us more about what they're praying here the specifically but they're praying before going to war. What nation on planet Earth gives a prayer to God before going out to war? The IDF does. >> [singing] [singing] >> Yeah. Well, you know, they're saying we believe with complete faith in the coming of the Messiah." That's what they're saying. >> And although he may tarry, we will not cease waiting and believing. And not only are they waiting and believing, but they're actually going into battle to fight these forces of darkness. But I think it's just so important to understand cuz a lot of Americans are so westernized. They're like, "Oh, they're Messianic wackos. They're Messianic wackos." But the understanding of Messiah the from our perspective and theirs couldn't be more different. Their Messianic redemptive vision is that the trees say, "Hey, you know, the Iranians the Islam the Jihad is that every tree says, "Hey, there's a Jew behind me. Come kill him." And they're able to wipe out man, woman, and child. Our prayer is that the the enemies of Israel that the entire world opens their eyes and says, "We're brothers. We're family. Let us build the temple. Let us go worship the God of Israel as one human family together loving each other to the degree that we're we'll be beating our swords into plowshares." That is our dream. It's like just light and darkness is about what these soldiers are praying for. They're praying for peace and love for all of humanity by the spirit of God infusing the world. And they're praying for the Jihad and murder and genocide. That's awesome. There's one more prayer that I want to be uh mention is and I'm sure you guys are praying it every day now in Jewish synagogues all across Israel. There's a prayer for the IDF, but there's also a prayer for the soldiers of the United States as well. Um that prayer I just heard learn from the local community here in in the Mount of Blessing that it's been incorporated in the prayers cuz I mean I guess a lot of times they're praying for the IDF, but because of the cooperation now between the IDF and the US, there's also a prayer for the uh the the US the military the US soldiers um that has been incorporated here locally. And I don't know if you guys have anything to say that. I mean it seems like it's it's coming all the time. >> In my synagogue every single week we would pray for America, for the government, for the armed forces, for the people of America, for God to pour his blessing and his light upon this great nation. I grew every single week in my Jewish day school we were praying for America. >> Well, I didn't grow up in Texas. I grew up here in Israel and that had never happened before. I have never prayed for American soldiers in my life until now where they made a call out >> It's not just you, right? No, it's not just you. It's the whole nation. Every synagogue across the whole country. >> synagogues across the country have incorporated prayers specifically for the American soldiers that are fighting alongside the Israeli soldiers. >> Amazing. And so it's really a beautiful thing to see. >> It's awesome. Like because the real spiritual power behind this war is all in prayer. And I do have like how are all these rockets being thrown onto Israel? Like the real Iron Dome are the prayers of the people around the world, the prayers of the people of Israel in this land. That's the real Iron Dome that's protecting us. And so the more prayers, the more that we can cover this country with that, the more protected we will be. I just think that it's amazing cuz if this community here is praying this prayer, that means every community this is the most authentically Jewish, you know, in essence community. We're in the >> uncompromising uncompromising, very Zionist, very Israeli. It's not a like an American, you know, cultured community here. Sure. I just think it's absolutely beautiful that these prayers are going up all across Israel for not only the Israeli soldiers, but also the American soldiers. It's it's phenomenal.
