Transcript [00:00] Hey folks, Eric Stacklebeck here. [00:01] Welcome to the Watchman newscast live [00:03] stream. I've been telling you here over [00:04] the past few weeks that man oh man, we [00:06] are in a very pivotal period. [00:10] I'd say in modern world history at least [00:12] certainly in the history of Israel, [00:14] America and what I call the free world, [00:16] Western civilization. No doubt we had of [00:19] course the 25th anniversary of 911. [00:21] Upcoming we've got the third anniversary [00:24] of October 7th. We're in the midst of [00:25] the high holidays in Israel. But two [00:28] really key dates, the US midterms, [00:31] November 3rd, and the Israeli election [00:34] on October 27th. Now, those two dates in [00:37] particular really, I think, this is not [00:39] an overstatement, folks. I think the [00:41] next maybe 10 years of what's going to [00:45] go down here in the West really could [00:47] hinge on these two elections in many [00:49] ways. I think of number one, the US [00:53] midterms. [00:55] Look, if the left gets any vestage of [00:57] power once again in my country where I'm [00:59] sitting right now, the United States, [01:01] big big trouble. Even if the left, if [01:03] Democrats just gain control of the [01:05] House, uh, for the second half of [01:07] President Trump's second term, they [01:09] could be obstructionist. They could [01:11] start the impeachment nonsense back up [01:13] again. And and we know how that goes. [01:15] We've seen this script before. It'd be a [01:17] nightmare. President Trump has [01:18] accomplished amazing things in under two [01:21] years. [01:23] and they'd like to put a screeching halt [01:25] to all of that. And by extension, that [01:28] means not only domestically with [01:30] domestic policy, but foreign policy. [01:32] That means trying to hamstring Trump [01:34] when it comes to Iran and acting in the [01:37] world against evil and tyranny like he's [01:39] been doing over the past two years. So [01:41] major ramifications there, no doubt. [01:45] Secondly, and I say that major [01:47] ramifications not just for America [01:49] clearly, but for the entire Western [01:51] world. Again, I've said it many times, [01:53] the United States under Trump, key [01:56] distinction there, under Trump is a [01:58] firewall for Judeo-Christian Western [02:01] civilization. I couldn't say the same [02:02] thing under Biden. Of course, the US was [02:05] going the way of Europe and Canada and [02:07] Australia, which is basically spiraling [02:09] into oblivion. Trump to me is a [02:11] reprieve. [02:13] God gave us a reprieve here in America [02:15] in November 2024. And it can't be [02:18] squandered in November 2026 with the [02:21] left gaining victories. I don't listen [02:23] to the polls, the prognosticators. I [02:25] really don't because nine out of 10 of [02:27] them skew heavily leftwing and they want [02:29] to sabotage Trump. They want to suppress [02:31] voter turnout and discourage people from [02:33] voting and tell conservatives and [02:35] traditional patriotic Americans, "Hey, [02:37] your vote doesn't matter. It's over. the [02:39] Democrats are going to win in a [02:40] landslide, so don't even bother voting. [02:42] Well, folks, I can tell you that's not [02:44] the truth. And to any Christian watching [02:46] who plans not to vote to sit at home [02:48] here in America, you're out of your [02:50] mind. I mean, you need to get out there [02:53] and exercise your your duty, your [02:56] patriotic duty, a God-given blessing we [02:58] have in this country I'm sitting right [03:00] now, and vote for your kids, your [03:02] grandkids. I can go on, but I want to [03:04] shift to the Israeli election October [03:07] 27th and the stakes there. Again, I say [03:11] that the United States is a firewall for [03:13] Western civilization under Trump. Last [03:15] line of defense for Western [03:16] civilization. Really, I believe Israel [03:18] under BB is the first line of defense [03:21] for Judeo-Christian Western [03:22] civilization. It's the birthplace of [03:24] that very civilization. I'd argue that's [03:26] our civilization was born on Mount Si [03:29] 3,500 years ago when Moses was handed [03:32] the Ten Commandments by God Almighty [03:33] himself and then it went on to Jerusalem [03:38] and then spread from Jerusalem. [03:41] The biblical foundations I'm talking [03:43] about, we could talk about Rome and [03:44] Athens of course all day long as well, [03:46] but the biblical foundations, the [03:48] biblical moorings of Western [03:50] civilization come from the land of [03:51] Israel. And it's the first line of [03:54] defense now in the belly of the beast, [03:56] standing strong against the same [03:59] jihadist enemies that want to wipe every [04:00] American, every Brit, every Canadian, [04:03] every Frenchman, every German, etc. off [04:05] the map. [04:07] So, first line, last line, both in [04:10] jeopardy electorally in the next few [04:13] weeks. [04:15] Polls in Israel, same. Again, they're [04:16] skewed very heavily antiBB. And now the [04:19] big campaign, the smear campaign in the [04:22] runup is that BB knew about October 7th [04:25] and did nothing. He was warned and did [04:26] nothing. He's actually going to sue [04:29] these media outlets according to his [04:31] team that are making these accusations [04:33] and anyone who's making those [04:35] accusations. You see the smear campaign [04:37] against Trump. You see the smear [04:38] campaign against BB. This is how it [04:40] goes. They try to sabotage them before [04:42] the election. And yet BB has been the [04:46] great survivor in Israeli politics. [04:48] Again and again, he has withstood the [04:50] challenges and won election after [04:51] election against all odds in many cases. [04:54] The same with Trump. Trump's not on the [04:56] ballot this year, but Republicans [04:58] clearly are in the midterms and Trump is [05:01] a representative of the party, the main [05:03] face of the party. But in Israel, to [05:06] give you an idea of the stakes, BB today [05:08] said that there are rumblings and [05:11] there's evidence of possible [05:13] pre-election attacks launched against [05:16] Israel. By whom? We don't know. I [05:18] presume Iran. Hamas says, blah, that [05:20] whole axis. I'm not sure. BB didn't [05:22] specify. But here's more from the Times [05:24] of Israel. And I think this is important [05:26] because the Israeli elections October [05:29] 27th, about four weeks away, four weeks [05:31] from today actually, if I'm not [05:33] mistaken. And the US midterms are five [05:36] weeks from today. Today's Tuesday, so [05:38] five weeks away. Uh four weeks Israel, [05:40] five weeks the US. Again, this is a [05:44] pivotal pivotal time period uh for the [05:49] Western world really, the Middle East, [05:51] the entire world. These two elections, a [05:53] lot hinges on them. And if you have any [05:56] doubt about that, just look at what's [05:58] happening in the UK right now and what [06:00] Great Britain is doing to itself. I want [06:03] to expand on that more. I'm grieved [06:06] that Britain is falling by the wayside, [06:10] committing cultural suicide. I It's [06:13] nightmarish what's happening in Great [06:15] Britain with the great nations, great [06:16] civilizations. It's unbelievable really [06:19] how bad it's gotten. The left-wing [06:22] government in the UK is literally not [06:25] physically at war against its people, [06:27] but it's basically thumbming its nose at [06:30] the British people and saying, "We don't [06:32] care. We're going to inundate you with [06:35] millions of Muslim migrants. We're going [06:37] to fundamentally transform your [06:38] neighborhood, your society. We're going [06:40] to take Christianity out of everything. [06:41] And oh yeah, if you complain, we'll [06:43] arrest you." [06:45] This is Orwell came from Britain. Orwell [06:47] was a an Englishman. This is Orwell to [06:50] the max. clearly Orwellian and that was [06:52] one of the leading lights of Western [06:54] civilization, Great Britain. And that [06:55] light is flickering. It's going out. [06:57] These are dire times. These elections [06:59] are a big deal in both the US and [07:02] Israel. Okay. From the Times of Israel, [07:04] here we go. Prime Minister Benjamin [07:06] Netanyahu claimed today that there are [07:08] concerns that enemies of Israel may [07:11] attempt to attack it ahead of the [07:13] October 27th election. [07:15] We have indications BB said that ahead [07:18] of the elections our enemies will try to [07:20] attack us. He said this during a visit [07:22] to an air base in Israel and he said so [07:25] from here from the air force base from [07:28] the long arm of Israel Netanyahu said I [07:30] am sending you a message. Don't mess [07:32] with us not now and not ever. Our long [07:36] arm he said will reach you anywhere and [07:39] at any time. Now, he did not elaborate [07:42] on any specific threat or attacks. I [07:46] mean, look, Israel is always on high [07:48] alert, right? There's always a certain [07:50] threat level against Israel. So, [07:53] apparently BB is going to meet now with [07:57] the main opposition leader, Yaier Laid, [08:01] uh I believe tonight, if I'm not [08:04] mistaken, and brief him on the [08:06] situation. That often happens in Israel. [08:09] Um, [08:11] so okay, the meeting 11:30 p.m. Tuesday [08:14] night, which means it's taking place now [08:17] probably. I'm in Texas. We're eight [08:19] hours behind Israel. [08:22] So, he's going to convene the security [08:23] cabinet, give them a briefing, and he'll [08:25] brief the opposition leader. That's part [08:26] for the course in Israel with big [08:28] security issues like this. [08:30] So, how serious is it? I mean, for BB to [08:32] go public about it, it's got to be [08:33] pretty serious. And we talk about the [08:35] October surprise, right? Uh we talk [08:38] about here in America, the Iranian [08:41] regime planning an October surprise [08:43] perhaps to sabotage President Trump. I [08:46] mean to give you an idea of how much [08:49] clearly Iran wants BB to lose and they [08:51] want Trump to lose. To give you an idea [08:53] how much Iran wants Trump to lose the [08:54] regime, they just released the regime a [08:57] 25page letter to the American people [09:00] basically telling the American people [09:01] why they shouldn't vote for Trump and [09:03] vote for Republicans in the mid I should [09:04] say vote for Republicans in the [09:06] midterms. [09:08] I mean, they see the potential of AOC [09:11] and Elon Omar and their eyes light up. [09:14] The Iranian regime, Chuck Schumer, Hakee [09:17] Jeff, their eyes light up. They know [09:19] that these kind of people try try to [09:21] restrain Trump at every turn. [09:24] So, they'd love to see Trump weakened, [09:26] Republicans weakened, and radical [09:30] left-wing, communistic, pro-Islam, [09:33] appeasement-minded Democrats take [09:36] office, and then Iran has free reign [09:38] like they did during the Biden years. [09:40] Then Iran's able to secure sweetheart [09:42] deals like they did under Obama with the [09:44] Obama nuclear deal. I'd argue the [09:46] Democrat party in in even two years, [09:49] even more so than two years ago, has [09:51] gone drastically to the left and the [09:55] radical radical side in only two years [09:58] since the last election here in the [09:59] States. It's gotten whoa, it has [10:01] spiraled quickly where we have literal [10:03] communists and Islamists running for [10:05] office in America, running for Congress [10:07] and the Senate. It it's insanity. So [10:10] again, the midterms loom large, needless [10:12] to say, because the Iranian regime will [10:15] have advocates in Congress if these [10:18] people win elections, and the Iranian [10:19] regime knows it. That's why they're [10:22] actively trying to affect the election. [10:24] Number one, encouraging the American [10:26] that's not going to have much impact, I [10:27] don't think, a letter to the American [10:29] people from the Ayatollas or from the [10:30] IRGC, the Islamic Revolutionary Guards [10:32] Corps. But what could is some sort of, [10:35] god forbid, October surprise kind of [10:37] attack. and [10:39] continued efforts just to muddy the [10:41] waters literally in the Middle East [10:43] straight of Hormuz etc. Although Iran is [10:46] losing that very badly as the amount of [10:49] energy oil gas flowing through the [10:51] straight and out of the region is about [10:54] at pre-war levels now Iran's straight of [10:57] Hormuz gambit has failed. That was [11:00] really the only card the regime had to [11:02] play and now that's essentially done and [11:06] they're cracking down even more [11:08] domestically as a result because they're [11:09] afraid as they're squeezed more and more [11:12] economically that the Iranian people [11:14] will rise up. But October surprise [11:16] rumblings in the states clearly anything [11:19] to make Trump look bad and hurt [11:21] Republicans in the midterms. It's clear [11:23] that's why Iran was trying to drive up [11:25] well successfully oil and gas prices [11:27] have been driven up. That's what happens [11:29] when there's war, particularly in the [11:31] Middle East. [11:34] Still not anywhere near levels that they [11:36] were under Biden, by the way. And [11:39] Trump's record is incredible [11:40] economically. Record low unemployment, [11:44] record low joblessness claims, uh, [11:47] medium household income, higher than [11:49] it's been 60 years. We could go on and [11:50] on and on. But look, if people have the [11:53] sense that, hey, my oil, not the sense, [11:55] the reality, my oil and gas is too high. [11:58] Okay. I mean that that that's a serious [12:00] issue and people the afford the word the [12:02] left uses affordability. The [12:05] affordability crisis began under Biden [12:08] really began COVID and under Biden his [12:09] policies. Trump's had what 16 months or [12:13] 18 months to try and dig it dig out [12:15] completely. The guy's worked miracles [12:17] practically in that time but it takes a [12:20] while. That's why he needs another two [12:21] years to finish the job and even beyond [12:23] that his successor to dig out of the [12:25] hole that the left dug between 2021 and [12:28] 2025. [12:30] But [12:32] these are all look oil and gas and Rubio [12:34] talked about this secretary of state [12:36] yesterday. [12:37] These are very important issues clearly. [12:41] But if you were to tell me, hey, you're [12:44] going to pay a bit more at the pump for [12:46] several months, and I truly think after [12:48] the midterms, the prices will go down [12:51] considerably, and the Iran issue will be [12:54] resolved one way or the other, but if [12:57] you were to tell me, okay, you're going [12:58] to pay more at the pump, you might pay [13:00] $10 more each time you pay your car up, [13:02] uh, fill your car up, I'd say, man, that [13:04] stinks. That's like, you know, for say [13:06] you fill up once a week, maybe twice, [13:08] you could pay as much as $100 more a [13:11] month. Not good for the American working [13:12] family. No doubt for any American [13:14] family, everyone who's working, right? [13:16] Uh but if you would tell me you got to [13:19] do that for about a year and then things [13:22] will plummet again, you'll be good. And [13:25] the caveat to all of it, the reason you [13:28] were paying more at the pump is because [13:30] President Trump destroyed Iran's nuclear [13:32] weapons facilities. He did the right [13:35] thing. He knew it could hurt in the [13:36] midterms and raise oil and gas prices [13:39] and he said that stinks, but I got to do [13:42] the right thing. I can't be worried [13:43] about political ramifications and [13:45] playing politics and my electoral [13:47] chances. I have to do what's right for [13:49] the American people first and foremost [13:51] and for the world. And I refuse, Trump [13:54] said, to kick this problem, kick the can [13:56] down the road to my successor because [13:58] there's no guarantee that whoever comes [14:00] after Trump would confront Iran. Someone [14:04] might came come after Trump, God forbid, [14:06] who says, "Ah, we'll let Iran go [14:07] nuclear. They can be contained. It's not [14:09] going to affect us." And let Iran get [14:10] the bomb. You think a president AOC [14:13] would confront Iran? [14:16] So Trump said, "I'm going to do it. I [14:18] won't my I won't let my legacy be. Hey, [14:21] Trump was good, but Iran went nuclear on [14:23] his watch. No way. Trump said, I'm going [14:26] to do it. It's the right thing to do. [14:27] It's an imminent threat. And look at [14:29] what they're doing in straight of [14:30] Hormuz, what they've attempted to do. [14:32] All the chaos they've caused across the [14:33] region, firing missiles at all their [14:35] neighbors, at Israel, etc. Imagine if [14:37] those missiles were nuclear tipped. [14:39] Imagine if Iran had a nuclear could [14:42] enforce a nuclear blackmail on the world [14:46] in the straight of Hormuz and say, "Oh [14:48] yeah, you don't want to give us control [14:49] of the straight of Hormuz. You don't [14:50] want to pay tolls for your shipping to [14:52] pass through the straight. Well, we've [14:54] got the bomb and we just might use it [14:56] because we're Islamic fanatics, [14:58] jihadists with the world's deadliest [15:00] weapons." Trump said, "No way. We can't [15:02] live like that." He did the right thing. [15:05] So, if you were to tell me that that [15:07] it's going to make the world safer for [15:09] your kids and grandkids, but you got to [15:11] pay more at the pump for about a year, [15:13] I'd say it stinks, but I'll pay more at [15:15] the pump. So, if people are going to [15:18] disregard all the accomplishments of the [15:20] past 18 months or so and say, you know, [15:23] my oil and gas oil oil my gas prices is [15:26] higher when I fill up the pump. Uh [15:28] Trump, you know, failed me. Screw that. [15:30] I'm not going to vote. That's insane [15:34] because it didn't happen magically. They [15:36] just rose the prices. It happened [15:38] because Trump being a leader did the [15:41] right thing and tackled an existential [15:44] threat, the Iranian nuclear program. [15:46] Yeah, I wish it would have wrapped up [15:47] months ago and I believe it should have. [15:49] I don't believe the US should have [15:51] stopped military action back in April [15:53] and all the ceasefire memorandum of [15:56] understanding on and on and on. It [15:57] should have wrapped up a while ago. I [15:59] think everyone can agree on that. [16:01] But there's a strategy at work here as [16:04] well. And although it's taking longer, [16:08] Iran's being strangled economically [16:11] badly. And I'll get into a little bit [16:13] more about them suppressing [16:16] uh people at home because they're [16:17] getting frightened [16:19] what's left of Iran's leadership that [16:21] hasn't been wiped out. But look, October [16:24] surprise in Israel, the US, God forbid. [16:27] Pray against it, folks. But it's a real [16:30] thing because Iran wants to uh obviously [16:34] harm BB's electoral chances [16:37] and harm Republicans electoral chances. [16:40] If you didn't know, now you know. It's [16:41] really common sense. The enemies of [16:45] Israel, America, and by extension the [16:47] entire free world. They see Trump and BB [16:50] as strong leaders who they know won't [16:52] play games and who will not let let them [16:54] get away with their jihadist [16:55] shenanigans. [16:57] So, they want them out of the picture. [16:59] I've compared BB and Trump to two [17:00] modern-day Church Hills. I believe [17:02] rightly so. They saw the gathering [17:05] storm. They acted on it. [17:08] I wish I could say the same for the rest [17:10] of the West. We're going to break that [17:11] down a bit more. What's going on in the [17:13] UK? You got to hear about this, folks. [17:15] And a little bit more about Iran and [17:18] what's going on on the home front in [17:20] Iran. And things are stirring there. And [17:23] we've been praying for the Iranian [17:25] people for years now. really, but [17:26] especially since the beginning of this [17:28] year. But hey, if you like what you're [17:30] hearing, breaking news, current events, [17:32] mainly from Israel in the Middle East, [17:34] but we go around the horn, China, [17:35] Russia, Europe, right here in the US and [17:37] beyond, depending on the news cycle, and [17:39] we do it from an unapologetically [17:40] biblical perspective. If you like that, [17:42] be sure to subscribe and click the [17:44] notification bell so you get alerts [17:46] every time a new video is posted. And we [17:48] talk about Israel being the first line [17:50] of defense for Judeo-Christian Western [17:52] civilization. And yes, it is [17:54] Judeo-Christian Western civilization. [17:57] Um, Jesus was Jewish. [18:01] The Bible was written, except for Luke, [18:04] by Jews. It's essentially the story of [18:06] the Jewish people by and large up until [18:08] the time and following the death of [18:10] Jesus, the death and resurrection, I [18:12] should say, of Jesus. So, it's [18:14] Judeo-Christian Western civilization. [18:17] Yes. [18:19] Anyway, I say that because you get some [18:21] wack jobs on social media. This whole [18:23] new so-called woke right contingent. [18:27] They're Jew haters. They're Israel [18:28] haters. They just negate the Old [18:30] Testament. And they don't even follow [18:32] the precepts of the New Testament in [18:34] their behavior, in their fruits. I could [18:36] go on about it. I've talked about it [18:37] before. Tucker Carlson kind of the [18:39] poster child of all this. But, okay, [18:43] Israel fighting a sevenfront war since [18:45] October 7th. By the way, I will be in [18:48] Israel next week, just so you know, [18:50] commemorating the October 7th massacre. [18:53] Hard to believe it's three years, but [18:55] Israel is soaring and standing strong in [18:57] those three years. And I'll be part of [18:59] something called the global prayer [19:00] event. My good friend Dr. Mike Evans is [19:03] putting together global prayervent.com. [19:06] 24 hours straight on October 7th. 24 [19:10] hours straight. Global prayervent.com. [19:12] I'll be part of that speaking and doing [19:14] some hosting and getting a bunch of good [19:16] stuff on the ground in Israel. Pretty [19:18] quick trip, quick turnaround, but it's [19:19] going to be good from Jerusalem. You [19:21] won't want to miss that. Global [19:22] prayervent.com. But Sevenfront War and [19:25] my good friends at McGendome, who are [19:28] our partner for today's live stream. [19:31] They've been at the forefront of it [19:33] throughout. Really amazing organization, [19:36] folks. You hear me talk about them a [19:37] bunch. And I don't partner with just any [19:39] organization on this channel. They need [19:42] to be doing God's work and doing it [19:44] well. And I can't think of a better [19:46] organization than again Devita Dome [19:47] that's doing exactly that. They are [19:49] Israel's emergency services system. The [19:52] first responders, the EMTs, the [19:54] paramedics, they're the first ones on [19:56] the ground every single time. There's a [19:58] missile, a terror attack, a car ramming. [20:00] I could go on and sadly there's far too [20:02] many of them. But Mcendia Dome [20:04] ambulances are rushing to the scene. [20:06] They are Israel's emergency services [20:08] system. Look, they dispatch every [20:11] ambulance in the state of Israel. They [20:14] collect, process, distribute Israel's [20:16] entire blood supply for civilians and [20:18] the IDF alike. It's save livesisrael.com [20:22] to support their incredible work. Save [20:24] livesisrael.com. [20:27] They've lost 30 plus members since [20:31] October 7th in the line of duty, over 17 [20:33] ambulances, and guess what? They're 90% [20:37] volunteer force. They're not getting [20:39] paid to do this, yet they're literally [20:41] risking their lives to help their fellow [20:43] countrymen and women. What an [20:45] organization. Save livesisrael.com. [20:48] Support memb Israel's time of greatest [20:50] need, especially with the October 7th [20:53] anniversary looming. I can't think of a [20:54] better time to do it and fulfill that [20:56] biblical mandate to bless the people of [20:58] Israel for such a time as this. Save [21:01] livesisrael.com. Okay. What's going on [21:03] in the home front in Iran? And by the [21:05] way, [21:07] um, Iran, [21:10] how could I forget? I buried the lead [21:13] quite literally [21:14] the bounty, [21:17] the kidnapping. You see in the title, [21:19] here's the headline from the Jerusalem [21:21] Post. Iran offers up a $40,000 reward to [21:25] anyone in the Middle East who captures [21:26] and kills US soldiers. Now, if you [21:28] remember in August, we reported they [21:30] also had a bounty out on US troops. That [21:32] was 30 grand. now 40 grand. [21:36] And [21:38] sorry, [21:40] trying to pull up this piece so I can [21:42] just quote directly from it for you. [21:45] Okay. [21:47] Iran's army spokesman said today that [21:50] anyone who wants to participate in the [21:52] jihad against the American enemy, [21:55] uh, they could, let's see, h [22:00] indecipherable here. Ah, he claimed that [22:03] this anyone who wants to participate in [22:04] the jihad, my fault, he claimed this uh [22:08] has started an initiative among Iran's [22:10] government, any Iranian citizen who [22:12] captures or hands over the remains of a [22:14] US soldier to Iranian authorities would [22:17] receive a reward of about $20,000. The [22:19] reward would double to 40,000 if that [22:22] person is a woman. [22:25] Furthermore, he said, "I," this is [22:27] Iran's army spokesman, "I believe that [22:29] if people from countries in the region [22:31] were to do the same, that is succeed in [22:34] taking down or capturing an American [22:35] soldier, we could award this prize to [22:37] them as well." So, a bounty on US [22:40] soldiers just in time for the midterm [22:41] elections again. Could that be their [22:43] October surprise attempt? And it shows [22:45] you, I mean, we're still talking about a [22:48] potential deal with these people if [22:50] you're if you're an American. I mean, [22:52] come on. They're putting bounties on the [22:54] head of US soldiers as we speak. It's [22:56] pure evil. It's it's demonic. And no [22:59] deal can be had. I think President Trump [23:01] knows this. No deal can be had with this [23:04] apocalyptic death cult. He knows it. And [23:08] I think five weeks, the midterms, when [23:12] whether Republicans have sweeping [23:14] victories or they take take a hit in the [23:16] House, Senate, uh Iran will be decided, [23:20] I think shortly thereafter. I may be [23:23] wrong, but just in listening to [23:25] President Trump and his team talk and [23:26] interviewing members of the [23:28] administration, that's the sense I get. [23:30] They want to wrap this thing up, but [23:33] they're not going to I give them credit [23:35] because if they really wanted to wrap it [23:36] up because they're worried about [23:37] politics in the midterms, they would [23:39] have wrapped it months ago. It would [23:40] have it wouldn't have ended nicely [23:42] probably. It would have ended with [23:44] America not looking that great. But they [23:47] could have said, "Well, we'll just bite [23:49] the bullet and just end this thing [23:51] because it affects the midterms." No. [23:53] Trump has said, and he looks so calm and [23:55] unflapable when he talks about it. [23:56] You've seen him. He says, "I'm patient. [23:59] I got all the time in the world world. [24:00] I'm not worried about the midterms. I'm [24:03] going to settle this Iran thing. I'm [24:05] doing the right thing, and if it hurts [24:08] me, it hurts me. But history will thank [24:10] me." He said today, "History will thank [24:12] me for what I did with Iran. I believe [24:14] he's right. I know that he's right. And [24:18] people can be so shortsighted at times. [24:21] You got to see the big picture. And the [24:23] big picture is we will be able to rest [24:26] easier at night. We already can. And our [24:28] kids will too and our grandkids. If the [24:31] world's one of the world's most [24:32] fanatical regimes doesn't have nuclear [24:34] weapons pointed at us. Common sense. In [24:37] times where common sense is not so [24:38] common. I mentioned Iran cracking down [24:42] uh at people on people on the home [24:45] front. Here we go from Fox News. By the [24:47] way, I'm on Fox News tonight. A guest on [24:50] my friend Trace Gallagher show, Fox News [24:52] at Night, 11:00 p.m. Eastern time if [24:55] you're in the States. Not sure the hit [24:57] time yet what time I'll be on, but I'm [24:58] on tonight. I'm on usually once a week [25:01] on Trac's show on Fox News. So, great [25:03] platform there to share the message and [25:05] I'm sure I'll be talking Middle East, [25:06] I'm pretty sure. But here we go. [25:09] Motorcycle patrols swarming Iranian [25:12] cities [25:14] and checkpoints are rising as the regime [25:16] braces for unrest. Why is the regime [25:20] bracing for unrest? Two re two reasons. [25:22] Number one, the economy is in shambles. [25:25] People are literally, if not yet, they [25:28] could be starving soon. I hate to say [25:29] it. And secondly, the compulsory hijab [25:33] rules [25:35] where they're starting to crack down [25:37] again on Iranian women who aren't who [25:39] don't have the Islamic head covering on [25:41] the hijab. [25:42] So, it's a fever pitch. It's a boiling [25:45] point. Here's the deal. At least 50,000 [25:48] Iranians were slaughtered in the streets [25:50] back in January of this year. [25:52] The Iranian people rose up, of course, [25:54] they were slaughtered, but they don't [25:56] have the weapons. And I put this [25:58] question out before to our ex-military [26:00] people. We have a bunch and maybe even [26:02] current who watch this program on [26:04] YouTube. And by the way, we're on TBN on [26:07] broadcast as well. Entirely different [26:09] show every night called Stacklebeck [26:10] Tonight, 7:30 p.m. Eastern time with a [26:13] reair at 10:30 p.m. Eastern time. Every [26:15] weekn night on TBN, the world's largest [26:17] Christian television network. The show [26:19] is called Stacklebeck Tonight. 30 minute [26:21] show every night. If you like what you [26:23] hear on YouTube, you'll love the show on [26:25] TBN. to check that out every week night. [26:27] But I asked, look, how do we arm the [26:29] Iranian people? How do we do it? How do [26:30] we go about do I know there's ways? Uh, [26:33] so I'd say, look, we must arm the [26:35] Iranian people against the regime. And I [26:38] know there's ways to do it. And the [26:40] Trump administration is probably working [26:41] on ways to do that, but man oh man, we [26:44] just cry for freedom for the Iranian [26:46] people and pray for them because they so [26:49] badly want to overthrow this regime, but [26:51] the regime has all the arms, has all the [26:53] weapons. [26:55] So the repression's rising there as as [26:57] you just heard. Keep an eye on that. [26:59] Things it could be a title wave. I mean [27:02] so much could happen if the economy [27:03] collapses there. You could see [27:04] defections where the regime says we're [27:07] done. Could they turn against some [27:09] elements of the regime, turn against the [27:11] IRGC, the Islamic Revolutionary Guards [27:12] Corp. Who know? It's all they're they're [27:14] the power brokers right now. And they [27:16] they have the the country in an iron [27:18] grip. But things have a way of spiraling [27:22] out of control. Look at how the wall [27:23] fell in Germany. Look at how the Soviet [27:25] Union collapsed. Look at the fall. Look [27:27] at the Arab Spring, which became sadly [27:29] an Islamist winter as we know. But these [27:31] things happened seemingly overnight in [27:33] some cases. So keep an eye on Iran. [27:36] Trump is playing the long game and [27:38] squeezing them economically. [27:41] And it's smart. It's taking longer. It's [27:44] running into the midterms, but [27:46] ultimately it could be it could prove to [27:48] be the most effective and least costly [27:50] both economically in terms of American [27:53] lives and American military hardware. [27:55] So, we shall see. Last thing I want to [27:57] say about the UK, if you watch the [28:00] newscast, we do live streams, but we [28:02] always we also do shorter form videos [28:04] here in the channel. Again, be sure to [28:06] subscribe. They're all in the archives [28:08] under videos or newscast. Did a shorter [28:10] one yesterday. uh my interview with [28:12] Congressman Randy Fine, Florida [28:13] Congressman, does a great job. Uh but [28:16] also my commentary on these arrests in [28:19] Britain on Sunday. You probably saw the [28:21] story. Five Muslim men arrested [28:25] close by an air base that's used by not [28:28] only the Royal Air Force in the UK, but [28:31] US airmen and the US bombers have [28:34] launched missions out of this air base [28:36] in Britain. Well, these men were found. [28:38] three white vans. Five of the men were [28:41] arrested, but an eyewitness who reported [28:43] it said there was at least eight or 10 [28:44] of them. Where's the rest of them? They [28:47] were released on bail within 24 hours. [28:50] And people are outraged and rightfully [28:51] so. Even President Trump said, "What's [28:53] the UK doing here?" So, that's just [28:56] indicative of where we're at in the UK. [28:59] I I listened to a guy this morning, man, [29:00] he was good. Uh on X as I was getting [29:03] ready and he really accurately [29:06] summarized the situation in the UK. The [29:09] king, Prince Charles, King Charles now, [29:13] is in the very least mighty friendly to [29:17] Islam and shrugs his shoulders over [29:20] Christianity. He loves Islam though. [29:22] Talks about all the time Christianity, [29:24] eh, doesn't acknowledge it. and he's [29:27] supposed to be the defender of the [29:28] faith. Now he's the defender of the [29:29] faiths. Remember they changed that [29:31] earlier this year. Queen Elizabeth and [29:33] this guy this morning, I think he was a [29:35] pastor in the UK, uh he made the point [29:38] that Queen Elizabeth, who who was a [29:39] believer, loved the Lord, had moral [29:41] clarity. She was a covering over that [29:43] nation. And he said, "Once she passed, I [29:46] knew things would unravel because [29:47] Charles is not that clearly." And look [29:50] what's happening. King Charles, you've [29:52] got the Church of England. My gosh, the [29:54] Archbishop of Canterbury, they're woke [29:57] left-wing. [29:58] Then you got the prime minister and the [30:00] government, that leg of it. Andy [30:02] Burnham, the new prime minister, another [30:03] leftist, and [30:06] they have descended really viciously [30:08] into anti-Israel [30:10] Miband, I believe, is a foreign [30:11] secretary. Uh, unbelievable. Uh, the [30:15] anti-Israel rhetoric and now actions [30:19] sanctioning goods coming from Judea and [30:20] Samaria, the biblical heartland of [30:22] Israel. So Britain's going down a [30:24] terrible road, and worst of all, I [30:26] mentioned at the top, is the mass Muslim [30:29] migration. Yesterday, the British [30:31] government announced they're going to [30:33] admit more so-called refugees, in [30:36] particular, Palestinians and Afghans. [30:39] I'm sure that's going to go great. Then [30:41] they'll bring their families with them. [30:42] You know how this works. Chain [30:44] migration, they call it. So, the UK, I'm [30:47] just preparing people, and I could [30:49] expand on this at length with a million [30:51] examples. Quite literally, the UK [30:53] government has been at war against its [30:55] own people for a while, ignoring the [30:57] desires of the people and saying, "We're [31:00] going to force Islam down your throats, [31:04] mass migration. If you say anything [31:05] about it, you're gonna get locked up, [31:08] but the Muslims will run free." We've [31:10] had rape gangs, Muslim rape gangs raping [31:13] white English girls. you know that whole [31:15] story and the government looked the [31:16] other way, police look the other way. [31:18] It's such a mess in the UK right now [31:20] that I can't overstate it. And my [31:22] friends from the UK watching right now [31:24] know exactly what I mean. So pray for [31:26] the UK revival there, a new government, [31:30] moral clarity, because look, I mean [31:35] the gospel went out from Britain, from [31:37] England for for centuries. [31:40] The sun never set on the British Empire. [31:43] We could go on and on. Many of us in the [31:46] States have English descent. I do. My [31:48] I'm German, of course, Stacklebeck, very [31:50] German, but my mom was Irish. And my [31:53] dad's mom was English. And [31:56] I love English history, British history. [31:59] I I could go on and on. I mean, so this [32:01] is just it grieves me to see what's [32:03] happening. And it also grieves me just [32:06] in as an American because I'm saying, [32:07] "Oh my gosh, one of our chief allies, [32:11] one of our top three allies without a [32:13] doubt." Our cousins across the pond, [32:16] they're consuming themselves from [32:18] within. This is not good. And they're [32:19] nuclear armed, by the way. [32:22] I'll have more to say about that in the [32:23] days to come, sadly, because I don't see [32:26] things turning around the UK anytime [32:28] soon. I think the question is are they [32:30] going to have massive civil unrest [32:32] sooner or later? But I think it's [32:36] unavoidable eventually because of the [32:38] actions of that government, the [32:41] communistic [32:42] and the rise of Islam aided and embedded [32:45] by this communistic government in the [32:47] UK. [32:48] It's a bad situation. So again, pray, [32:50] keep them in prayer. Wow. And again, [32:53] that's why the midterms loom large. I [32:55] will tell you the left in this country, [32:56] the United States, would love to [32:58] duplicate. They'd love America to look [33:00] like the UK. And it was on that track [33:03] under Biden, 12 million, 15 million [33:07] illegal migrants from all over the [33:10] world, Islamic countries as well [33:12] storming into this country, crime, rape, [33:15] madness, child trafficking. [33:19] If Harris and Waltz would have got in, [33:21] my gosh, that would have continued and [33:24] multiplied. So again, we dodged a major [33:26] bullet in America. We have a reprieve. [33:28] Let's not blow it on November 3rd. But [33:30] much more to say in the days to come [33:32] about all this. Thanks for joining us [33:33] today.
