Speaker 1 (00:00):
Previously on your Morning show with Michael dil Choonho.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
That's Jeffrey Lyon, Red's wearing red and Lieutenant Colonel is
James Carafana with the Heritage Foundation, one of the largest
think tanks in the world. Simply put, I believe one
of the finest military and foreign policy minds in America.
He's been a partner with me on the radio for
over fifteen years and has never made a dime doing it.
Good morning, Lieutenant.
Speaker 3 (00:21):
Colonel and very disappointed Kansas City Chiefs fan.
Speaker 2 (00:27):
Yeah, I'm not a fan of either, but I really
liked that victory love I loved I loved Cooper dejen
I mean, on his twenty third birthday. You make it
to the NFL, you're a star rookie, you get a
pick six and a Super Bowl. I would have loved
to have had a birthday like that.
Speaker 4 (00:46):
It's just a boring game.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
I want to talk to you about all things concerning
Middle East. So we have the President meeting with King
of Dolla today, the King of Jordan at the White House.
It'll be a closed meeting. There will be no joint
news conference after. Is he talking about owning the Gaza
Strip there's been very little clarity as to whether or not.
I don't know why the President can't make it crystal
clear that we need the Palestinians held in Saudi Arabia
(01:11):
and Jordan until we can repair the Gaza and then
they can return home. That hasn't been clear. And then
the ultimatum all hostage is released by Saturday at noon
or all hell's going to break loose. Let's start with
the King of Jordan. What do you think the talks
are about today or need to be well?
Speaker 4 (01:27):
The King of Jordan.
Speaker 3 (01:29):
Often comes to the United States and it meets with
all senior officials, so he is he is like the
the decision maker in Jordan.
Speaker 4 (01:41):
And as you know Jordan, half of Jordan is actually.
Speaker 3 (01:44):
Palestinian refugees, right, And it's a very difficult country to
run when half your country is really not even citizens
and you are a sandwiched between Iraq, Aoran, Syria.
Speaker 4 (02:00):
Uh Lebanon, and Israel.
Speaker 3 (02:02):
It is really the Keystone state and destabilized Jordan.
Speaker 4 (02:09):
No, that is a horrible thing. That's the last thing
we want.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
So the United States has always been kind of invested
in in the stability of the Jordans, and and the
and the king who is really I think, uh really
cares about his people and his whole things.
Speaker 4 (02:24):
Just keep this thing wired together.
Speaker 3 (02:26):
So I assume those would be incredibly serious discussions.
Speaker 4 (02:31):
What what Trump?
Speaker 3 (02:33):
You know, The way I interpreted the whole kind of
Trump thing about is you people are out of your
freaking minds. If you think that we're just going to
go back, let him Moscat back in control, pour money
in with Unra like we did before and October every
seven never happened, and just revisit this horror show again.
Speaker 4 (02:55):
You're out of your freaking minds.
Speaker 3 (02:56):
Now, maybe I don't have the best idea in the world,
but I'm going to start to throw ideas out there.
Unless somebody comes up with something better. You know, we're
going to have a miserable life here. So I think
it's the beginning of a negotiating process. And right now
I'm just kind of waiting to see how it all
plays out.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
Yeah, and it's hard to speculate and no for sure,
but I mean we can kind of look back and say,
I don't think it was about Canada being a fifty
first date as much as hey help us out at
the border, help yourself out with drugs coming into your
country and help both of us out with terrorists that
can to like to really come through your border. Same
was true for Mexico with ten thousand troops that'll be
sent to the border. I don't think he was really
(03:32):
after Panama or invading Panama. I noticed now we don't
have any shipping fees going through the Panama Canal. So
if that's the motive, and this is a negotiation, it
could be brilliant in that you get Saudi Arabian others
to rebuild Palestine and then you get them all to
look after it, so that radical Islamis with terror on
the offensive, Jihattist Islamis don't ever get back in control.
(03:55):
That could be genius. Really actually the US owning it.
I don't know if that's genius.
Speaker 4 (04:03):
I wouldn't think so that's it. That's the expert teacher.
Speaker 3 (04:09):
No.
Speaker 4 (04:09):
I mean, I have two words for you.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
Cobar Towers, right, which was the US base in Lebanon
they cut bombed by the terrorists. I mean the whole
the United States wants a stable Middle East, and I
don't think you achieved that by the United States putting
up a big red flag in the middle of the
Middle East and saying kick.
Speaker 4 (04:32):
Me right because somebody because some yeahoo's gonna kick you.
And the other thing is is in the end, it's
their region.
Speaker 3 (04:45):
There's only gonna be piece and stability and prosperity in
that region. When those countries get together and they say, Ran, dude,
you back off and they don't tolerate extremism in their
own neighborhood.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
It's just that this is gonna sound so vanilla and
so cheesy talk show host, but it's true. You know,
we talk about Iran. Iran is the most predictable problem
for the world. So it's the world's problem to solve.
All of radical Islam. She hottest Islam, who doesn't see
Israel's right to exist, doesn't see America's right to exist
(05:18):
quite frankly, wants to rule the world, followed by Allah
returning is a problem to the world, and it's the
world's problem to solve. I like that this discussion is
starting to involve the world, including Muslim nations, to help
solve this problem that much.
Speaker 3 (05:34):
I like, can I yeah, can I have hold something
for a second, because sure, I don't think people are
really focused on counter terrorism has come back.
Speaker 4 (05:42):
I think is an important issue for the United States.
And I think this administration they're instincts of it, right.
Speaker 3 (05:47):
Is it's not to do the extremes, which is under
you know, Obama and Biden and Clinton. It's just pretend
it's not there, and to talk about it is islamophobia
and racist, right, and then and then you get attacked.
And I also think the Bush strategy really kind of well,
we have to eliminate all the root causes of terrorism
(06:08):
and reform the Muslim religion. And you know that's not
going to work either. So for the US, for the
US right, dealing with global terrorism is like mowing the lawn.
These guys they lift their heads out of the bunker,
you kill them, right. So I'll give you a perfect example.
The guys went in the White House.
Speaker 4 (06:29):
The first thing he is got brief They said, well,
we've been tracking.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
These terrorists in Somali for a year and a half now,
and they're like tracking them, why don't you just kill them?
And they go, well, the Biden guys will let us
do that. So they're like, you're serious, right, So to
the President they say, hey, there's terrorists Somalia that want
to kill us there, and presidents go kill them. And
so that was a Thursday Friday morning they killed them done.
So I think that's the US strategy. The US strategy
(06:54):
is mowing the law. But and this is the big butt.
If you want to address the reason why people are
killing people in your country while the Sahala is the hell,
while we see the return of the Muslim Brotherhood and
these other groups and stuff, that's your problem and you
need your solutions, and that's not my problem. I'm going
(07:14):
to mow the grass.
Speaker 4 (07:15):
Right. You got to decide what you want, how you
want to run your countries. If you want these problems
to go, wait, you got to take care.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
But if you pull a Mexico Canada, you pull a
Panama and you get Saudi Arabia to fund the rebuilding
of Palestine, now they got skin in the game, money
in the game, Muslims will keep radical Muslims forever taking
control and starting trouble against Sir. I think that would
be a brilliant strategy.
Speaker 4 (07:39):
But I mean, what do I know.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
I'm just a talk show host.
Speaker 3 (07:41):
I talked to very senior people in Panama yesterday and
they're like message receipts, the idea that China can control
the Panama Okada is unacceptable. Thank you, we got that message. Okay,
now we can figure how to fix that problem.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
Closing moments of Lieutenant Colonel James Carafano. All right, Saturday
at noon, every hostage, Now, these latest hossages didn't look
very well. Maybe out of living hostages. Uh, and then credibility.
So you're not gonna make the mistake Obama made with
the Red Line in the Sand. I mean, if you're
saying all hell's going to break loose, all hell better
break lose. What do we define as all hell breaking loose?
Speaker 3 (08:22):
I well, I think the Israelis will, you know, go
back in and start killing people again. So I think,
guess what that means.
Speaker 2 (08:31):
Do you think there are hostages to be released Saturday
by noon?
Speaker 4 (08:36):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (08:36):
I'm my guests submit from talking to Israeli sources, and
this months ago is that we were talking in the
twenties and thirties of lies people.
Speaker 4 (08:44):
So how many? How many have been released? Now? A dozen?
Speaker 2 (08:47):
Maybe running low.
Speaker 4 (08:51):
To all together? I mean, so, I mean I think
we're talking.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
Living, living individuals is probably a pretty small number.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
All right, Then that leaves the only order of business.
Is weather going to keep you from getting here? Because
I was really excited about seeing you tomorrow.
Speaker 4 (09:10):
Yeah, I don't know. What are you thinking, man, I
don't know.
Speaker 5 (09:14):
Well, let me guess it never stopped you from leaving
the country, being halfway around the world to get away
from me. Well, you take a little risk and fight through,
you know, a little de ice, and you're on your way.
Speaker 3 (09:25):
I know we'll put it. I think I've put in
God's hands who.
Speaker 2 (09:29):
I was gonna say, don't do anything you're not comfortable with.
We cherish these visits. We don't want you to go anywhere.
But if you're here, I'll see you tomorrow. If not,
we'll talk again next week. Read his great work and
