Israel-Hamas and Trump's Art of the Deal · The Ben Ferguson Podcast

0:01
Speaker 1: I want to be clear.
0:02
Speaker 2: There is a lot of moving parts to what's happening
0:04
Speaker 2: with Israel and Hamas, and much of this is changing
0:08
Speaker 2: so quickly that it's almost hard to keep up with
0:10
Speaker 2: it because there are a lot of parties involved. There
0:13
Speaker 2: are terrorist organizations, there are states that are involved in negotiations.
0:17
Speaker 2: There is the American side, the White House, we have
0:20
Speaker 2: centers and congressmen, State Department that are all chiming in here,
0:24
Speaker 2: and then there's Israel, and then there's a Maas. And
0:27
Speaker 2: what I am going to give you now is the
0:29
Speaker 2: best information I have at the moment. That's what I
0:32
Speaker 2: want to make sure I make very very clear to you.
0:34
Speaker 2: So let me start with what I've just been told
0:37
Speaker 2: moments ago. Number One, Israel Amas have agreed to a
0:43
Speaker 2: pause in fighting in Gaza. Why one reason, so that
0:47
Speaker 2: the remaining hostages can be freed in the coming days
0:51
Speaker 2: in exchange for Palestinian prisoners.
0:54
Speaker 1: Now, that is new, that is not something that's been
0:57
Speaker 1: talked about before.
0:58
Speaker 2: It Now this also goes back to what they say
1:01
Speaker 2: they are in general accepting elements of a plan that
1:04
Speaker 2: was put forward by President Donald Trump and his administration
1:08
Speaker 2: that would represent the biggest breakthrough in months in the
1:11
Speaker 2: devastating two year war. Hamanus at this moment and this
1:16
Speaker 2: could change, I'm giving you the best info I have
1:18
Speaker 2: at the moment, says that it is agreed to the
1:21
Speaker 2: deal that will lead to the end of the war
1:23
Speaker 2: in Gaza, that will draw the Israeli troops, the entry
1:27
Speaker 2: of AID into Gaza, and the exchange of prisoners for hostages.
1:34
Speaker 2: While many questions remain, the sides appear to be closer
1:38
Speaker 2: than they have been in several months to ending a
1:40
Speaker 2: war that has killed tens of thousands of Pales Indians,
1:44
Speaker 2: destroyed most of Gaza, and ignited other armed conflicts across
1:47
Speaker 2: the Middle East. Now here's what we know now. President
1:51
Speaker 2: Trump is now saying the hostages will be released from
1:55
Speaker 2: Gaza on Monday or Tuesday. The President opened a meeting
2:00
Speaker 2: with his cabinet the White House by speaking about the
2:02
Speaker 2: ceasefire deal and his plans to travel to the Middle East.
2:07
Speaker 2: He said, it is a complicated process for the houses
2:11
Speaker 2: to be released from Gaza, but it will happen on
2:14
Speaker 2: Monday or Tuesday, and once you're the president, in his
2:18
Speaker 2: own words, listen to this.
2:20
Speaker 3: No, last night, we reached a momentous breakthrough in the
2:24
Speaker 3: Middle East, something that people said was never going to
2:26
Speaker 3: be done. We ended the war in Gaza and really
2:30
Speaker 3: on a much bigger basis, created peace and I think
2:33
Speaker 3: it's going to be a lasting peace, hopefully and everlasting
2:36
Speaker 3: piece piece in the Middle East. We secured the release
2:40
Speaker 3: of all of the remaining hostages and they should be
2:42
Speaker 3: released on Monday or Tuesday. Getting them as a complicated process.
2:48
Speaker 3: I'd rather than tell you what they have to do together.
2:51
Speaker 3: There are places you don't want to be, but we
2:54
Speaker 3: are getting the hostages back on Tuesday, Monday or Tuesday,
3:00
Speaker 3: and that'll be a day of joy. I'm gonna try
3:04
Speaker 3: and make a trip over We're gonna try and get
3:06
Speaker 3: over there, and we're working on the timing, the exac timing.
3:11
Speaker 3: We're gonna go to Egypt where we'll have a signing,
3:14
Speaker 3: an additional signing. We've already had a signing representing me,
3:19
Speaker 3: but we're gonna have an official signing. And the amazing
3:23
Speaker 3: thing is all of the countries over there, from Guitar
3:27
Speaker 3: to Saudi Arabia to Uoe to all of them, I
3:30
Speaker 3: mean the rich ones, the less than rich ones, They've
3:33
Speaker 3: all come together something which is amazing. Actually, they've all
3:37
Speaker 3: come together for this and they're really probably the best
3:40
Speaker 3: relationships they've ever had. So it's been really something incredible
3:45
Speaker 3: that nobody thought it was possible to get it done.
3:47
Speaker 3: And very importantly, the hostages are coming back, as you know,
3:52
Speaker 3: they consider them hostages, they talk about them as hostages.
3:55
Speaker 3: But there are approximately twenty eight dead people, mostly young,
4:02
Speaker 3: mostly men and boys, I mean boys. The one woman
4:09
Speaker 3: talked about her baby. Her baby's twenty five years old,
4:12
Speaker 3: but you know, to her, it's her baby, and we're
4:15
Speaker 3: bringing them home, we're getting them to getting everything, and
4:20
Speaker 3: to those parents, the dead young man is just as
4:24
Speaker 3: important as though it were, as though this person were alive.
4:28
Speaker 3: It's amazing. I've never seen anything quite like it. I've
4:31
Speaker 3: been very much involved, I've never seen anything quite like it.
4:35
Speaker 3: But it's really peace in the Middle East. And you
4:40
Speaker 3: remember October seventh was terrible, but also from the Hammas standpoint,
4:45
Speaker 3: they probably lost seventy thousand people. That's big retribution. That's
4:50
Speaker 3: big retribution. But at some point that that whole thing
4:55
Speaker 3: has to stop, and we're going to see too. Gaza
5:00
Speaker 3: is going to be slowly redone. You have tremendous wealth
5:05
Speaker 3: in that part of the world by certain countries and
5:08
Speaker 3: just a small part of that. They what they make
5:12
Speaker 3: will do wonders for Gaza, and I think you're gonna
5:17
Speaker 3: see some tremendous country stepping up and putting up a
5:21
Speaker 3: lot of money and taking care of things. But this
5:24
Speaker 3: tremendous spirit like I haven't seen. And even the news
5:29
Speaker 3: I won't call it fake news for this purpose, because
5:31
Speaker 3: they really were very fair today, I must say in
5:35
Speaker 3: all cases, but they covered it very well. They covered
5:38
Speaker 3: it very fairly. Everybody loves it. Everybody people that were
5:43
Speaker 3: never giving us a fair shake. Frankly, they they can't
5:47
Speaker 3: even believe it. They're so they're amazed by it. A
5:51
Speaker 3: lot of people are. But it was just everything came together.
5:56
Speaker 3: I think the attack was very important on Iran because
6:02
Speaker 3: let's say that didn't happen, then probably by now have
6:04
Speaker 3: a nuclear weapon, numerous nuclear weapons, and therefore, even if
6:09
Speaker 3: we signed a deal, there'd be a big dark cloud
6:11
Speaker 3: over it and it wouldn't be the same thing. So
6:14
Speaker 3: Iran's different. But Iran wants to work on peace. Now
6:18
Speaker 3: they've informed us and they've acknowledged that they are totally
6:22
Speaker 3: in favor of this deal. They think it's a great thing,
6:24
Speaker 3: so we appreciate that, and we'll work with Iran. As
6:28
Speaker 3: you know, we have major sanctions on Iran and lots
6:30
Speaker 3: of other things. Would like to see them be able
6:33
Speaker 3: to rebuild their country too, but they can't have a
6:36
Speaker 3: nuclear weapon. So I want to express my tremendous gratitude
6:40
Speaker 3: to the leaders of Qatar, Egypt, and Turkey for helping
6:44
Speaker 3: us reach this incredible day and for being there. They
6:48
Speaker 3: were there with us all the way. And of course,
6:50
Speaker 3: as you know, Saudi Arabia and Jordan and so many.
6:54
Speaker 3: I will tell you President Erduwan was personally involved and
6:59
Speaker 3: dealing with Homas and some of the others. He's been great,
7:03
Speaker 3: They've all they've all been really amazing. Indonesia's been amazing.
7:08
Speaker 3: Indonesia's been fantastic. The whole world has come together for this.
7:13
Speaker 3: People that didn't get along, people that didn't like each other,
7:17
Speaker 3: neighboring countries that frankly didn't like each other, but now
7:21
Speaker 3: they just this this moment in time. So we look
7:24
Speaker 3: forward to welcoming the hostages like you can't believe, home
7:29
Speaker 3: to their families, and that'll take place early next week.
7:33
Speaker 3: We hope Monday or Tuesday, and all Americans should be
7:36
Speaker 3: proud of the role that our country is playing and
7:39
Speaker 3: bringing this terrible conflict to the end to an end.
7:42
Speaker 3: And I want to thank I mean some of the people.
7:44
Speaker 3: Jd you were fantastic, and Pete you were great, Marco
7:48
Speaker 3: is fantastic. I mean some of you were very much
7:51
Speaker 3: involved in looking around so indirectly, I think almost everybody
7:55
Speaker 3: in this room was involved. Susie, I want to thank
7:57
Speaker 3: you very much. You were incredible. You've done it an
8:00
Speaker 3: incredible job. So and yes, John, what you've done was invaluable.
8:08
Speaker 3: Cia John ratcliffein He's been an incredible job. So I
8:11
Speaker 3: want to thank you all. And if I'm missing anybody,
8:14
Speaker 3: I apologize, but you've been amazing. And then Steve Whitcoff,
8:19
Speaker 3: who worked so hard, and you remember we settled seven.
8:25
Speaker 3: This is number eight. We settled seven wars or major conflicts,
8:29
Speaker 3: but wars, and this is number eight. And the one
8:33
Speaker 3: that I thought would be maybe the quickest of all
8:35
Speaker 3: would be Russia Ukraine, and I think that's going to
8:38
Speaker 3: happen too. But in the meantime, they're losing about seven
8:41
Speaker 3: thousand people a week, and that seems pretty bad. Losing
8:45
Speaker 3: mostly soldiers, young soldiers. They go out to war and
8:48
Speaker 3: they're getting killed. And while it doesn't affect us in
8:53
Speaker 3: a lot of ways, we've got a big ocean in between.
8:58
Speaker 3: You don't want to see that happen. It was a
9:00
Speaker 3: big mistake that war should had never happened. It would
9:02
Speaker 3: have never happened if I were president.
9:05
Speaker 2: It's very clear the President of the United States of
9:07
Speaker 2: America understood how important this moment was, how important it
9:11
Speaker 2: was to use multiple countries to communicate, how important it
9:15
Speaker 2: was to have a team, not just him, that was
9:17
Speaker 2: working on this. And this is something that's incredible because
9:21
Speaker 2: Israel a Moss have signed off on the phase, the
9:24
Speaker 2: major phase, first phase of this piece plan. And this
9:29
Speaker 2: is again even the corporate media is having to admit
9:34
Speaker 2: that this is historic, something they've never done before.
9:39
Speaker 1: Did you see that gold.
9:41
Speaker 2: Just hit an all time new high of over four
9:44
Speaker 2: thousand dollars an ounce And if you hear that, you're like,
9:48
Speaker 2: are you kidding me? And you're thinking, gosh, I missed
9:51
Speaker 2: my opportunity. Well, I don't know if you missed your opportunity.
9:54
Speaker 2: But my friends at Kurt Elliott Precious Metals, they can
9:57
Speaker 2: answer that question for you.
9:59
Speaker 1: You also it may not be.
10:00
Speaker 2: Paying attention to the incredible gains with silver that are
10:04
Speaker 2: happening right now as well. And that's why I trust
10:07
Speaker 2: the guidance of the team at kirk Elliott. In fact,
10:10
Speaker 2: I literally just got a hundred ounce bar of silver
10:14
Speaker 2: the other day. And the reason why is because after
10:17
Speaker 2: I talk to the team at kirk Elliott Precious Metals,
10:20
Speaker 2: they let me understand exactly where I could have a
10:23
Speaker 2: big upside in investing in silver.
10:26
Speaker 1: Now.
10:26
Speaker 2: The other part that I love about them is this
10:28
Speaker 2: they have transparent pricing. There are a lot of gold
10:32
Speaker 2: companies that you'll hear about if you listen to talk
10:34
Speaker 2: radio or podcasts or watch TV, but do they tell
10:38
Speaker 2: you how the pricing actually works well. At kirk Elliott,
10:42
Speaker 2: they're real simple, just eight percent when you buy and
10:47
Speaker 2: zero commissions when you sell, with no hidden fees. Ever,
10:51
Speaker 2: that is the other reason why I recommend them to
10:54
Speaker 2: all of you. They also don't sell you quote rare
10:57
Speaker 2: coins or precious coins that you pay in set markups
11:00
Speaker 2: on and then when you go to sell them you
11:02
Speaker 2: find out they're really not worth that much.
11:05
Speaker 1: They are a bollyon only approach.
11:07
Speaker 2: They focus on investment grade medals, no overpriced collectibles, no gimmicks.
11:14
Speaker 2: That means you get more gold or silver for your
11:16
Speaker 2: money at fair value when it's time for you to sell.
11:20
Speaker 2: So if you're ready to find out if gold and
11:23
Speaker 2: silver is right for you in your portfolio, then call
11:27
Speaker 2: them and get a plan. You can visit them at
11:30
Speaker 2: k e PM dot com, slash ben that's k e
11:36
Speaker 2: PM dot com slash ben or seven two zero six
11:41
Speaker 2: oh five thirty nine hundred at seven two zero six
11:46
Speaker 2: oh five thirty nine hundred Kirk Elliott Precious Metals online
11:51
Speaker 2: at k e PM dot com. I want you to
11:55
Speaker 2: listen to just how the media, it's the corporate media,
11:59
Speaker 2: are just willing to finally admit that what the president
12:04
Speaker 2: has done was so impossible that they're willing to actually
12:07
Speaker 2: admit it and give credit to the President for pulling
12:11
Speaker 2: all of these people together and to getting this done.
12:16
Speaker 2: And I will say this, I wish the media was
12:20
Speaker 2: more like this because if they were, even as you're
12:23
Speaker 2: the president there when he was talking at the cabinet meeting,
12:26
Speaker 2: he was like, look, I'm not even gonna call him
12:27
Speaker 2: fake news. They cover this on the right way, there
12:30
Speaker 2: would be that type of respect, and this two minute
12:34
Speaker 2: montage I'm going to play you of these different channels
12:39
Speaker 2: explaining how big of a deal this is was one
12:42
Speaker 2: of those moments from like finally, finally there's something that's
12:45
Speaker 2: good that has happened. Hostages are gonna be released, there
12:49
Speaker 2: is gonna be peace, and people are gonna stop suffering
12:53
Speaker 2: and dying, and the media got it right. It's sad
12:57
Speaker 2: that it took this type of an extreme issue for
12:59
Speaker 2: them to get it right, but I hope they learn
13:01
Speaker 2: from this, because when you get it right, I will
13:04
Speaker 2: praise you, just as the President did a moment ago
13:07
Speaker 2: in the Oval Office.
13:08
Speaker 4: Made no mistake.
13:09
Speaker 5: It looks like President Trump has actually pulled off something
13:13
Speaker 5: here that many presidents before him have failed to do.
13:17
Speaker 6: Just need to underscore what an enormous moment this is
13:20
Speaker 6: for so many people in this region, for the people
13:22
Speaker 6: of Gaza who have endured two years of war, for
13:25
Speaker 6: the families of these forty eight remaining hostages who have
13:29
Speaker 6: endured two years of absolute agony. This is a watershed moment.
13:34
Speaker 7: We've heard it again and again from a number of
13:37
Speaker 7: people today really giving credit to President Trump for getting
13:40
Speaker 7: this deal over the finish line. What are you hearing
13:42
Speaker 7: from your sources with regard to President Trump's role in
13:45
Speaker 7: getting both parties to sign off on at least the
13:48
Speaker 7: first phase of this piece plan.
13:49
Speaker 8: Well, certainly this is an enormous moment for the world, but.
13:52
Speaker 6: Also for this administration, a big win for the President,
13:55
Speaker 6: who has been very personally involved in this.
13:57
Speaker 9: Lens is a major accomplishment for President something that he's
14:00
Speaker 9: been really trying to work toward. There's been a lot
14:03
Speaker 9: of critics and questioning of whether or not he could
14:05
Speaker 9: pull off sort of negotiating and working.
14:07
Speaker 1: To try to get all these sides together.
14:09
Speaker 9: Of course, there are a lot of nations involved, so
14:11
Speaker 9: this is of course not just a victory for President Trump,
14:13
Speaker 9: but really a number of Arab nations, Hamas and of
14:15
Speaker 9: course the Israel. But this is really huge, dudes, and
14:18
Speaker 9: the President of course announcing it online.
14:20
Speaker 7: So what do you make of what the President has
14:23
Speaker 7: said in a social media post that they've signed off
14:25
Speaker 7: in the first phase of the Piece Plan.
14:28
Speaker 1: What does that mean to you? Anderson? Momentous day.
14:32
Speaker 7: There's not much good news in the world. This is
14:35
Speaker 7: great news.
14:35
Speaker 8: I am trying to hold it together, honestly, working on
14:38
Speaker 8: this issue.
14:39
Speaker 5: A very long time Israel. Make no mistake, this is
14:42
Speaker 5: a huge night, potentially the end of the nightmare for people,
14:46
Speaker 5: for the people of Gods. That is going to be
14:48
Speaker 5: an enormous relief for the people of Israel, potentially the
14:51
Speaker 5: end of a two year long nightmare.
14:52
Speaker 8: And for these families still waiting for the remaining hostages
14:55
Speaker 8: who are still alive to come home. This has been
14:57
Speaker 8: an agonizing wait. And of course the families who will
15:00
Speaker 8: get the remains of loved ones who died while in captivity.
15:04
Speaker 2: And by the way, it wasn't just the media, and
15:06
Speaker 2: that was a lot of the breaking news media, it
15:09
Speaker 2: was also those that do more of the debate in commentary.
15:13
Speaker 2: I will give credit always where credit is due. There's
15:18
Speaker 2: a show that I do a fair amount, CNN's Abby's
15:21
Speaker 2: Phillips show. She I think it's fair to say, completely
15:25
Speaker 2: shocked her viewers and not only them, the entire panel
15:28
Speaker 2: by defending and credit President Trump with his peace through
15:32
Speaker 2: Strength policy after the Gods of Peace victory last night.
15:37
Speaker 1: I want you to hear what she said that this
15:40
Speaker 1: was not doable when President Biden was in office.
15:45
Speaker 4: I think the biggest problem that the President Biden had
15:52
Speaker 4: is there was no pressure from Qatar, from Turkey, from Egypt.
15:57
Speaker 4: They were actually facilitating in many ways what was going on,
16:02
Speaker 4: and that is really ultimately how it all came together.
16:05
Speaker 4: I mean, but but I think by saying that it's
16:07
Speaker 4: sort of an acknowledgement, Trump has changed that dynamic.
16:10
Speaker 9: Yeah, I think that.
16:11
Speaker 4: I mean, he's clearly I don't know how he thinks,
16:13
Speaker 4: you know, And I think there's a lot that remains
16:17
Speaker 4: to learn about what prompted that change. But I do agree, yes, somehow,
16:22
Speaker 4: some way that that changed what.
16:25
Speaker 2: I go back to what I said, I will always
16:28
Speaker 2: give credit where credit is due. And there are many
16:31
Speaker 2: in the media right now that are going, Okay, we
16:33
Speaker 2: didn't think this was possible. We didn't believe that this
16:36
Speaker 2: could happen. As Abby said, there there's no one that
16:39
Speaker 2: believes this could have been done under Joe Biden's time
16:42
Speaker 2: his watch.
16:42
Speaker 1: I mean, this just wouldn't have gotten done.
16:44
Speaker 2: The countries that had to come to help get this
16:46
Speaker 2: done would not work with Joe Biden in the way
16:49
Speaker 2: that they're working with Donald Trump. Also, we wouldn't have
16:52
Speaker 2: had the bombing of the Iranian nuclear facility, which was
16:55
Speaker 2: a part of this getting this done, and showing the
16:59
Speaker 2: strength and the power, and it made people understand that, like, hey,
17:02
Speaker 2: Donald Trump's not screwing around.
17:03
Speaker 1: He's not somebody you want to mess with.
17:05
Speaker 2: So if he says you might want to get to
17:07
Speaker 2: this peace, you might want.
17:08
Speaker 1: To get to this peace. And I think that's a
17:11
Speaker 1: big part of this.
17:12
Speaker 2: Now, this also goes back to just the pure joy
17:16
Speaker 2: and the mission. This should be non partisan, it should
17:19
Speaker 2: be non political. If you look at what President Trump
17:22
Speaker 2: said at the White House on Wednesday night, he made
17:26
Speaker 2: it clear on this monumental Gazza peace deal.
17:29
Speaker 1: Like this is great news for the world.
17:31
Speaker 2: It's great news for Israel, it's great news for the Palestines,
17:35
Speaker 2: it's great news for Muslims, it's great news for the
17:37
Speaker 2: Arab countries. It's great news for our country as well.
17:42
Speaker 2: That is not political. No one should look at it
17:45
Speaker 2: as political. And this is again I'm going to play
17:50
Speaker 2: it for you because I think it's important for you
17:51
Speaker 2: to hear it the present and you can hear the
17:54
Speaker 2: joy because he is joyful that he's saving lives.
17:57
Speaker 10: It's a great honor to be involved in it. We
17:59
Speaker 10: had some tremendous help, as you know, with everybody from
18:03
Speaker 10: Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner and Marco and we had everybody, JD.
18:10
Speaker 10: The whole group was just amazing. And the military was,
18:14
Speaker 10: as you know, very instrumental in getting this done. We
18:17
Speaker 10: have a great military with great leadership. The whole world
18:21
Speaker 10: came together, to be honest, so many countries that you
18:24
Speaker 10: wouldn't have even thought of it, they came together. The
18:27
Speaker 10: world has come together around this deal, and that's something
18:30
Speaker 10: I would say that without that wouldn't happen. So many
18:35
Speaker 10: countries that you wouldn't have thought of have wired their
18:38
Speaker 10: best wishes and their commitment to do whatever is necessary.
18:42
Speaker 10: The country surrounding of all signed. I mean, they're all
18:46
Speaker 10: signed up, and it's been really an amazing period of
18:51
Speaker 10: time and so great for Israel, so great for Muslims,
18:55
Speaker 10: for the Arab countries, and so great for this country,
18:59
Speaker 10: for the United States of America, and that we could
19:02
Speaker 10: be involved in, you know, making ideal like this happened
19:05
Speaker 10: because it was you know, many years they've talked about
19:08
Speaker 10: peace in the Middle East. This is more than gadz.
19:10
Speaker 10: This is peace in the Middle East. And it's been
19:13
Speaker 10: incredible thing.
19:14
Speaker 1: It's an incredible thing.
19:15
Speaker 2: President Trump talking about this in a way that I
19:18
Speaker 2: think everyone should be behind everyone should be behind him,
19:25
Speaker 2: and seeing some of the media saying it now the
19:28
Speaker 2: way that they are saying it is I think good
19:31
Speaker 2: for the country. I also think having a president that
19:35
Speaker 2: understands who needs to be at the table to get
19:38
Speaker 2: it done and sharing the success as he did around
19:41
Speaker 2: that cabinet table and saying, look, there's others that maybe
19:44
Speaker 2: I didn't mention. I don't want to offend you, I'm sorry,
19:46
Speaker 2: but like thank you. It took a team effort literally
19:51
Speaker 2: around the world, literally around the world to get this done,
19:56
Speaker 2: and America led the way. Something else that was amazing
20:00
Speaker 2: was the jubilant crowds that filled the streets not only
20:03
Speaker 2: of Gaza but also in Israel on Thursday to celebrate
20:06
Speaker 2: the ceasefire agreement between Hamas and Israel, minting. The crowds
20:10
Speaker 2: chanted the name of the United States President Donald Trump
20:12
Speaker 2: and called friend to receive the Nobel Peace Prize for
20:15
Speaker 2: brokering the deal. The crowd in Tel Aviv's Hostage Square
20:19
Speaker 2: was particularly enthusiastic. They waved American flags and chanted Nobel
20:24
Speaker 2: Prize to Trump. Crowds in Gaza also celebrate the end
20:29
Speaker 2: of the war and chanted Trump's name in Gaza folks.
20:33
Speaker 2: An agricultural artist named Peter Winner took his enthusiasm for
20:37
Speaker 2: Trump as a Nobel laureate to the next level by
20:40
Speaker 2: writing Nobel for Trump and huge letters on a field
20:44
Speaker 2: in northern Israel. The hostages and the mis Seeing Family's
20:49
Speaker 2: forms comprised the families of Amaque kidnapping victims wrote a
20:52
Speaker 2: letter to the Nobel Committee on Monday asking him to
20:54
Speaker 2: honor Trump as well, saying, quote President Trump's determination to
20:58
Speaker 2: bring peace made possible what many said was impossible.
21:03
Speaker 1: We strongly urge you to award President Trump.
21:05
Speaker 2: And Nobel Peace Prize because he has vowed he will
21:08
Speaker 2: not rest and will not stop until every glass hostage
21:11
Speaker 2: is back home, the families wrote. In the past year,
21:14
Speaker 2: no leader organizations contributed more to peace around the world
21:17
Speaker 2: than President Trump. While many have spoken eloquently about peace,
21:22
Speaker 2: he has achieved it. While others have offered empty promises
21:26
Speaker 2: and that may have been a jab at Joe Biden,
21:29
Speaker 2: he has delivered tangible results that have saved countless lives.
21:34
Speaker 1: This is what I voted for.
21:37
Speaker 2: But this is a day where every American should be happy,
21:41
Speaker 2: should be thankful, should be proud of our president, not
21:44
Speaker 2: for political win, but for a win of humanity and
21:49
Speaker 2: a win about peace. This also, by the way, brings
21:53
Speaker 2: up another story. I was just talking about Mandanni, but
21:56
Speaker 2: now there's a problem with radicals around the world. This
22:00
Speaker 2: is the other part that so many liberals need to understand.
22:03
Speaker 2: We are witnessing now the radicalization of people because the
22:07
Speaker 2: Democratic Party, for example, in America is not willing to
22:10
Speaker 2: hold those accountable for their extremist ideology. I'll give you
22:15
Speaker 2: another example of just how bad it's gotten. A terrorists
22:18
Speaker 2: jihadis pledged allegiance to the Islamic State in a phone
22:22
Speaker 2: call to police during the course of last week's synagogue attack.
22:26
Speaker 2: Counter Terrorism officials have now revealed for the first time
22:29
Speaker 2: to the public. The drip of revelations about the Manchester
22:34
Speaker 2: synagogue attack continued to be released, including information they had
22:38
Speaker 2: in the very first minutes of their investigation. The Specialist
22:41
Speaker 2: counter Terrorism Police revealed on Wednesday that a thirty five
22:46
Speaker 2: year old Syrian migrant had spoken to a police telephone
22:50
Speaker 2: operator in a call while the attack was actually underway,
22:55
Speaker 2: boasting he'd killed two Jews in the name of the
22:58
Speaker 2: Islamic State. Telephone the phone call took place after the
23:01
Speaker 2: man had approached the Heaton Park Synagogue and have been
23:05
Speaker 2: told to go away by worshippers and volunteer guards. He
23:09
Speaker 2: then returned with a car to run over pedestrians and
23:12
Speaker 2: then disembark to continue the attack with a knife. Worshippers
23:16
Speaker 2: barricade the door of the synagogue and they found the
23:18
Speaker 2: man trying to stab his way through a window by
23:22
Speaker 2: police when they turned up seven minutes after the attack began.
23:26
Speaker 2: Police were warned about the Manchester Synagogue Terris becoming radicalized.
23:30
Speaker 2: We also learned in a new report as well, meaning
23:33
Speaker 2: that this radical type of anarchy is spreading around the
23:37
Speaker 2: world and yes, it does actually go back to anti
23:40
Speaker 2: Semitism now. So far, police say they believe that the
23:44
Speaker 2: quote influenced man was influenced by extreme Islamic ideology. They
23:50
Speaker 2: have stopped short of definitively declaring, however, the ideology behind
23:54
Speaker 2: the attack, or indeed definitely calling it a tear attack.
23:59
Speaker 2: You cannot make this up because now we are seeing
24:02
Speaker 2: so many around the world refusing to admit when someone
24:05
Speaker 2: is an extremist. Counter Terrorism police saying this on Wednesday.
24:09
Speaker 2: We are continuing to investigate the full circumstances and motivation
24:13
Speaker 2: behind what happened. The investigation is continuing at pace, so
24:18
Speaker 2: yet again we have law enforcement and those that are
24:21
Speaker 2: in charge afraid to call it a spade a spade.
24:26
Speaker 2: In the first hours and days after the attack, we
24:29
Speaker 2: know that the man had told police that why he
24:32
Speaker 2: did it, what he was inspired by, that he was
24:35
Speaker 2: an extremist. In fact, the Daily Telegraph revealed the number
24:39
Speaker 2: of known wives of the man is now up to three,
24:43
Speaker 2: with a teenage girlfriend understood to have been involved as well.
24:47
Speaker 2: But yes, we don't know what the attack was actually about.
24:50
Speaker 2: And by the way, these marriages took place despite bigamy
24:54
Speaker 2: being illegal in the United Kingdom. All the participants are
24:57
Speaker 2: thought to be adherent to the Islamic faith. Two of
25:00
Speaker 2: the wives are understood to be white converts to Islam.
25:04
Speaker 2: One of the wives been arrested on suspicion of terror
25:06
Speaker 2: offenses since last week's attack. But yes, we still don't
25:10
Speaker 2: know what the motive is. Now there's a bigger warning
25:13
Speaker 2: here as well, and that is why are we allowing
25:16
Speaker 2: so many outside forces to have such an impact in
25:19
Speaker 2: a negative way, not only in this country but other
25:22
Speaker 2: countries like the UK, which brings me to another story
25:25
Speaker 2: that you need to know about that no one is
25:28
Speaker 2: talking about or reporting on. We have now found out
25:32
Speaker 2: through Chinese government records that a left wing billionaire, Nevilroy Singham,
25:38
Speaker 2: as a corporate officer for thought Works Beijing. The tech
25:43
Speaker 2: billionaire turned left wing agitator. His journey from Chicago based
25:49
Speaker 2: ento mineur to Shanghai resident has been anything but ordinary.
25:53
Speaker 2: After founding thought Works Incorporated in ninety three and building
25:58
Speaker 2: the company into a software consulting powerhouse, Singham helped orchestrate
26:02
Speaker 2: its sale in October of twenty seventeen for seven hundred
26:05
Speaker 2: and eighty five million to a group of funds managed
26:09
Speaker 2: by London based private equity firm Apex Partners. Corporate records
26:14
Speaker 2: for the United Kingdom confirmed Singham's resignation from thought Works
26:19
Speaker 2: to same month, and his own LinkedIn profile says he's
26:22
Speaker 2: been retired since twenty seventeen. This is where the story
26:26
Speaker 2: gets interesting. Thought Work's English language website relegates him to
26:31
Speaker 2: its alumni section, reinforcing the image of a clean break
26:35
Speaker 2: that he's not actually involved with this Chinese company, but
26:39
Speaker 2: Chinese government records are now suggesting otherwise. These records list
26:44
Speaker 2: the Man as a corporate officer a thought Works Chinese
26:48
Speaker 2: subsidiary thought Works Beijing as recently as June seventeenth of
26:54
Speaker 2: this year, and for at least as far back as
26:56
Speaker 2: twenty twenty two.
26:58
Speaker 1: Now.
26:58
Speaker 2: These records are from the National Enterprise Credit Reporting System,
27:02
Speaker 2: that is, China's corporate registry. Other documents, including trade show
27:06
Speaker 2: profiles and help wanted ads, lists Singham as thought Works
27:10
Speaker 2: Beijing's official contact in twenty twenty one as well. When
27:16
Speaker 2: asked by the Breitbart News Foundation for comments specifically about
27:20
Speaker 2: the records for thought Works Beijing, a spokesman for thought
27:24
Speaker 2: Works responded saying, quote, Roy's affiliation with thought Works ended
27:28
Speaker 2: when he sold the company in seventeen to Apex. Thought
27:30
Speaker 2: Works has not been involved with Roy in a business
27:33
Speaker 2: capacity since he sold the company. Now here's the part
27:37
Speaker 2: that you should care about. Singham has been in the
27:40
Speaker 2: news a lot lately, most notably in connection with his
27:43
Speaker 2: role in funding the anti Israel and sometimes anti Semitic
27:48
Speaker 2: protests movement on college campuses.
27:51
Speaker 1: This is why you should care.
27:53
Speaker 2: A twenty twenty three report from the New York Post
27:56
Speaker 2: found that Seeingham and his wife left wing code Pink
28:00
Speaker 2: Code founder, another radical group. Jody Evans had donated more
28:04
Speaker 2: than twenty point four million to the People's Forum from
28:08
Speaker 2: twenty seventeen to twenty twenty two through a series of
28:12
Speaker 2: shell organizations and donor advisory groups, accounting for nearly.
28:17
Speaker 1: All of the group's funding.
28:19
Speaker 2: Evan sits on the People's Forum's Board of directors, according
28:23
Speaker 2: to the group's twenty twenty three financial disclosures. Now, the
28:26
Speaker 2: People's Forum has put itself at the front lines of
28:30
Speaker 2: the anti Israel protests movement. In fact, following the October
28:34
Speaker 2: seventh demas Ter attacks, the People's Forum wasted no time
28:38
Speaker 2: drumming up opposition to Israeli military action, organizing a rally
28:44
Speaker 2: in Times Square on October eighth the very next day,
28:47
Speaker 2: literally mere hours after the Hamas militants murdered and kidnapped
28:52
Speaker 2: thousands of Israelis, as well as a series of protests
28:55
Speaker 2: at Columbia University the following summer. We also know that
28:59
Speaker 2: there's another man and accused of murdering to Israeli embassy
29:01
Speaker 2: employees outside the Jewish.
29:03
Speaker 1: Capital Museum in May.
29:05
Speaker 2: He took part in those protests in seventeen and eighteen
29:08
Speaker 2: that were organized by the left wing groups connected to
29:11
Speaker 2: the People's Forum through funding from Singham. According to report
29:16
Speaker 2: in the New York Posts Now, Singham has also notably
29:19
Speaker 2: funded groups connected to the recent Los Angeles migrant riots.
29:23
Speaker 2: According to x user data, Republican organizations backed by Singham
29:28
Speaker 2: have allegedly played key roles in the violent protests across
29:32
Speaker 2: the United States of America Now. According to New York Times,
29:36
Speaker 2: over a quarter of Code Pink's funding since twenty seventeen
29:40
Speaker 2: has come from groups closely tied to Singham. Perhaps not coincidentally,
29:45
Speaker 2: Code Pink's criticism of the Chinese Communist Party has waned
29:49
Speaker 2: in recent years. Evans, once a harsh critic of China's
29:53
Speaker 2: human rights abuses, has been noticeably more muted on the
29:56
Speaker 2: topic as well. In twenty twenty, Code Pink launche China
30:00
Speaker 2: Is Not Our Enemy campaign aimed at countering the US
30:05
Speaker 2: aggression towards China through love for humanity and dedication to
30:10
Speaker 2: mutual respect, cooperation, world peace. According to the campaign's own
30:15
Speaker 2: x account now, since the group began receiving funding from Singham,
30:19
Speaker 2: Code Pink has described Western concerns over the Chinese government's
30:23
Speaker 2: treatment of the Yugur population as quote a tool to
30:26
Speaker 2: drive the US's hybrid war on China, mirroring talking points
30:30
Speaker 2: directly used by the Chinese Communist Party. So this is
30:36
Speaker 2: what we should all be concerned about, Following the money,
30:41
Speaker 2: the Chinese government record showing that this left wing billionaire
30:45
Speaker 2: who made his money in the US may now be
30:47
Speaker 2: trying to undermine our country from Beijing. And that's a
30:51
Speaker 2: story the liberal media is not going to tell.
30:54
Speaker 1: You.
30:55
Speaker 2: Don't forget Share this podcast please with your family and
30:58
Speaker 2: your friends were ever they are, and I will see
31:01
Speaker 2: you back here tomorrow.
