Speaker 1 (00:00):
Good morning, Kooner contry. Okay, my friends, this is one
of the biggest stories, not just in.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
The world, but in many ways, it is.
Speaker 1 (00:13):
History in the making. Over the weekend, the house of
Bashar Assad fell. It was overthrown in a massive lightning
offensive by al Qaeda Jihaddist rebels. And what is incredible,
my friends, is not just that the Assad dynasty which
(00:37):
has ruled over Syria for over fifty years. The father
Hafez Assad the son Bashar Asad have ruled that country
with an iron fist for over half a century. But,
my friends, we are now witnessing the unfolding of another Afghanistan.
(00:59):
American troops, over nine hundred of them, are now trapped
inside Syria with little protection, little fortification. They are sitting ducks.
The United States had to conduct massive air strikes over
the weekend to try to limit ISIS, which is now
(01:22):
also gaining momentum with the power vacuum left by the
fall of Bisharhisad and his dictatorial regime. So here is
exactly now what is taking place? My friends, As I
wrote on X last night, while are corrupt and frankly stupid,
I'm sorry. There's just no other way to put it,
(01:43):
are incredibly ignorant and stupid media and political elites, and
especially the media who are cheering on the downfall of
Assad and the rising now to power of al Qaeda rebels.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
Al Qaeda, the group now.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
The major faction that has now seized power in the
capital of Syria, Damascus, is literally an Al Qaeda group
that calls for sharial law, jihadism within Syria, a Muslim
Sunni radical Islamist state, for the slaughter of all Christians
(02:27):
within Syria, for the slaughter of others and other minority groups.
And apparently now as Biden took a victory lap yesterday,
he is bragging that our CIA, essentially the Brennan CIA,
armed and funded these jihadist Islamist Al Qaeda rebels.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
Along with Turkey.
Speaker 1 (02:54):
And I'm going to get to Turkey in a second,
because Turkey now is playing a massive role in the
overthrow of As'ad and in putting now a client state
in power in Damascus. But for our purposes, what ultimately
matters is that now the very Islamists, the very terrorist
(03:17):
group responsible for nine to eleven, responsible for the deaths
of over three thousand Americans, are now in Damascus, and
they are ransacking the presidential palace. They have now controlled
every branch and institution of the government. Their jihadist paramilitaries
(03:43):
are now on the streets of Damascus firing guns into
the air. And now the age of Islamism is back
in Syria. And so over the last eleven days, here
is exactly what took place, with Russia now bogged down
(04:03):
in a war in Ukraine, with Iran now having seen
its pop proxies Hamas in Gaza, Hezbollah in Lebanon suffer massive,
huge damage in Israel's defensive war. After October seventh, With
(04:24):
Iran itself now severely weakened, rebels in the north of Syria,
supported and armed by Biden's CIA and Brennan CIA, along
with Turkey's Erdohan, and these, as I said, are stone
cold Islamist killers, launched a lightning offensive eleven days ago
(04:48):
and they met little to no resistance. They first seized
the northern city of Aleppo. From Aleppo, they went to
Hama like Domino's they fell then to Han and before
you knew it, by the weekend, Damascus itself, the ultimate prize,
fell to al Qaeda and the Islamists beshh Asad and
(05:13):
his family fled Syria yesterday morning to Russia, who has
now offered them asylum. The Assaud regime is now over,
it has collapsed. It has been toppled, deposed, and ousted.
And Joe Biden yesterday addressed the American people, and I
(05:36):
swear to you bragged, bragged that Assad is gone, and
that Al Qaeda, known there in Syria as HTS that's
the name of the al Qaeda affiliate. The main rebel
faction is now the de facto ruler.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
Of that country. Roll cut one, Mike.
Speaker 3 (06:02):
What happened in the Middle East? After thirteen years a
civil war in Syria more than half a century brutal
authoritarianed role by a shu Asad as father before him,
rebel forces are forced Assad to resign his office and
flee the country. We're not sure he is, but there's
(06:23):
word that he's in Moscow. A long last. The sod
regime has fallen.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
He then went on to say that you admitted he said, no,
we played a big part in this. No, we wanted
these rebels to come to power. No no, no, no,
we backed them, we funded them, we armed them.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
How I helped do it, I'm Joey.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
And then unbelievably, he then said, there's an historic opportunity
now for the people of Syria.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
Roll cut one a Mike.
Speaker 3 (07:02):
This regime brutalized and tortured and killed literally hundreds of
thousands of venice Assyrians. A fall the res is a
fundamental lack of justice. It's a moment of historic opportunity
for the long suffering people of Syria to build a
better future for the proud country. It's also a moment
of risk and uncertainty as we all turn to the
(07:25):
question of what comes next. The United States will work
with our partners and the stakeholders in Syria help them
seize an opportunity to manage the risks.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
This is incredible. I mean, honestly, this is incredible. Now, look,
there's no question Bisad was a murderous tyrant, a butcher,
a dictator, no question about it. And it's not that, oh,
Jeff Cooner is mourning that, you know, the fall of Assad.
Quite the contrary. But but we haven't learned the thing
(07:59):
in the Middle East. What's gonna come after Assad is
gonna be even worse. What came after Kadafi in Libya
was worse. What came after Saddam in Iraq was worse.
The Arab spring of twenty eleven that Obama encouraged. Yes,
(08:20):
dictators were overthrown, like Cosni Mubarik in Egypt, but what
did they get? They got the Muslim brotherhood. In other words,
all you ended up doing was empowering Islamist fanatics and extremists,
even bigger murderers, even more to even bigger mass murderers
(08:42):
and and and and torturers than the secular dictators that
were overthrown. Now, in particular, the rebel group. Now there
are many rebel groups, there are many factions, but the
dominant one is Al Qaeda. In Syria, they just changed
their name, in fact, their leader, and he looks like
(09:05):
he's going to be now. The incoming leader of Syria
is himself a disciple of Osama bin Laden. He is
himself a longtime Al Qaeda jihadist who now is hoodwinking
the West the way the Taliban did. If you remember
when the Taliban seized power in twenty twenty one, after
(09:26):
we withdrew all of our US forces, and then the
Taliban launched another lightning offensive and the government forces melted
in the face of that offensive, What did the Taliban say, Oh, no,
we will not seek retribution against anybody who worked with
the United States or the previous government. Oh no, we
(09:47):
respect women's rights. No, we're going to have a free media.
And we all know how that turned out. It has
been a disaster for the people of Afghanistan. The same
thing applies now to Syria. It will now become a
radical Islamist soon y state run by al Qaeda that
(10:10):
is going to be exporting terrorism and Jihaudism, not just
across the region, but across the world and more immediately,
we have nine hundred US troops, like in Afghanistan before
that are now trapped. They are pinned down with limited
(10:31):
help and support. And Joe Biden now is desperately trying
to launch air strikes to make sure that our boys
aren't slaughtered because they're sitting ducks. Okay, Kuner country, do
not believe the propaganda that is coming now from the
so called establishment elite media and from the political elites
(10:54):
in our country. They are complicit in what is happening
in Syria, and it is an absolute crime, a crime
against humanity, a crime against the people of Syria. And
ultimately a crime against the people of America, Europe and
the West. And as I said on X and I
will now say it again, the fact now that al
(11:15):
Qaeda al Qaeda has come back to power, this time
in Syria, America and.
Speaker 2 (11:24):
Europe will rule the day.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
And that is literally the main faction they're called HTS,
that has now taken over the Syrian government. They have
ransacked the presidential palace. In fact, they're already committing massive
atrocities against people they suspect we're loyal to Asad. This
is now a thirteen year civil war that is finally
(11:50):
coming to an end. Now if you look at the
pockets of Syria in which HTS, this ALCA rebel faction
that has now won the civil war. They have been
backed by our CIA, in fact Biden's CIA to be
part know to be specific, and Turkey. They have committed
(12:14):
massive violations against women, against Christians, against the Yazides, against minorities,
and their slogan is the Allo Whites to Tehran, the
Alohites are like a Chiite sect. The Alohites to Tehran,
the Christians to the wall, meaning you line them up
(12:36):
and you shoot them. So this idea now that Syria
is going to become a multi ethnic, multi religious, tlerant
diverse country is an absolute lie. It is the same playbook.
Speaker 2 (12:57):
Over and over.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
Al Qaeda now runs much of Libya, the Islamists now
run much of Iraq. I could go country after country
that Taliban is back in power fully in Afghanistan, and
now Syria has fallen. And the bigger danger is that
(13:21):
this was so quick. It was such a lightning offensive.
The government of Asad shriveled and melted away so quickly
that it caught everyone off guard, including by the way,
the Biden regime. And so we now have just slightly
over nine hundred troops American troops. They are located primarily
(13:44):
in eastern Syria. They have very little protection. We have
one military base. It is completely exposed. They are sitting ducks.
Isis is now running wild. Al Qaeda now has won
its most significant victory since nine to eleven. They didn't
(14:08):
just forget Afghanistan. Syria is a strategic beachhead in the
heart of the Mediterranean, and this is now the country
that al Qaeda will be governing, or at least much
of it handed to them on a silver platter by
Biden's Cia.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
Now, is this a.
Speaker 1 (14:31):
Blow to Russia, No question, Russia spent a lot of money,
They sent a lot of Russian troops, a lot of
Russians died, a lot of Russian mothers were grieving and
burying their sons back in mother Russia. And now Syria,
the Assad regime that Putin propped up, that the Mullas
(14:52):
also tried to prop up, has now completely collapsed. So
this is a massive blow to russia prestige, Russia's influence,
Russia's authority. It is also a massive blow to the
Mullahs in Tehran. So this is going to have massive
regional implications. But my primary concern is our troops, our
(15:18):
men and women, and our interests. And yes, Assad was
a monster, no question, he was a vicious, vicious dictator
and criminal. But as Donald Trump rightly said on truth
Social yesterday, stay out of Syria. It is not our fight,
it is a viper's nest. And instead Biden has gotten
(15:43):
us now directly involved by arming, funding, and supporting this
Al Qaeda rebel movement and launching them into power. And
now as I speak to you, American airstrike are pounding
central Syria and our troops now are completely exposed and vulnerable.
(16:08):
I don't want them to be held hostage. I don't
want them to be kidnapped. I don't want them to
be attacked. I don't want to see a repeat of
what happened at Abby Gate, at the airport in Cable
where thirteen Marines were slaughtered by an al Qaeda ISIS terrorist.
And let me just make one final point, and then
I want to open it up to you. Six one
(16:30):
seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight is the number.
Speaker 2 (16:36):
What is to me incredible.
Speaker 1 (16:39):
Is that this regime, the Biden regime, in order to
hand Trump a mess, in order to do maximum damage
to him and his incoming administration, as now handed to
him a country in complete turmoil, incomplete chaos, in which
(17:05):
our mortal enemies. Remember, whatever you think about Bashar Assaud,
he was not an enemy of the United States. Six
one seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight.
Speaker 2 (17:18):
You know, Sandy made a very very good point.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
To me while we were off air Biden yesterday addressing
the country following the fall of the Bashar assad regime
in Syria, and apparently now a sad in his family
have fled to Russia, where Putin has granted them asylum.
That Biden is looking at this as his legacy. He
(17:40):
wants a legacy, and he thinks his legacy will be
you know, I'm Joey. I helped to bring down the
dictator Bashar Assad. But he's not seeing what comes next.
You know, as Sandy, I thought you said in a
very funny way, he doesn't play chess, hell does you
can't play backgammon, forget checkers, So he doesn't see or
(18:05):
he doesn't care what comes next. Yes, it's easy to
cheer the fall of a sad of course, who the
hell wants to saw it in power? I mean, the
man's a butcher. But what if what comes next is
infinitely worse? Has anybody thought of that? And especially that
it would be our mortal enemies al Qaeda? That to
(18:30):
me is what's absolutely shocking. Now, let me just say
one final thing, and then I want to go to
the phone lines six one seven two six six sixty
eight sixty eight. The question and the to me, the
only question that matters to us now, if I'm a
Christian in Syria, I'm telling you right now I'm getting
the hell out of there. The Christians in Syria are
(18:55):
going to be exterminated. Remember, Syria is one of the
ancient strongholds of Christianity if you read the Bible, I
mean it's you know, you know the road to Damascus conversion.
I mean, Syria has some of the oldest Christian believers
in the world, along with Egypt and North Africa.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
That entire area. The Christians now are going to get
wiped out.
Speaker 1 (19:24):
The Yazides now are going to be driven out of Syria,
and the Alloites now are going to be facing massive recrimination.
It is going to be an absolute bloodbath. You also
have the Kurds in the in the northern part and
the eastern part of the country that by the way,
(19:45):
are fighting Isis. But now the Kurds are facing Turkish
forces because the Turks.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
Now are going to impose their control over Syria.
Speaker 1 (19:55):
They're the ones really along with our Cia, bankrolling al
Qaeda and HTS as they now govern Syria or try to.
So the Kurds now are going to get crushed in
northeastern Syria.
Speaker 2 (20:10):
So what you're looking at now.
Speaker 1 (20:13):
Is the complete fragmentation and disintegration of Syria. That is
a very real possibility. And as I told Sandy, I said, Sandy,
I don't know if you remember this or not, but
Lebanon in the late nineteen seventies, early eighties, it was
always on the news where it was all out. I
know we've had civil war for thirteen years in Syria,
(20:35):
but what I'm talking about in Lebanon was almost like
hundreds of different factions all warring and squabbling with each
other and the country just being torn to pieces. This
is now what may happen to Syria. The whole thing
now can just ultimately fall apart, just completely fall apart. Now,
(20:59):
for our interests, we don't want an Islamist Syria, and
by the way, I would think Israel wouldn't want one either,
especially remember Bisharhasad had chemical weapons. Is al Qaeda now
going to get their hands on these weapons? Are they
going to get a hold of these chemical weapons, stockpiles,
(21:22):
armored vehicles, missiles, combat planes. In the hands of al Qaeda,
they can do tremendous damage, not just to our interests,
our people, our embassies in the Middle East, but they
could hit Europe, God forbid, they can hit us here.
(21:42):
So an Islamist Syria is country is detrimental. It is,
frankly to me, completely against American interests and more immediately,
we've got to get our troops out. They are sitting ducks,
(22:03):
and he's left behind nearly a thousand of them. And
with ISIS now running wild, Alcaeda now controlling the country,
you've got Islamist now paramilitary groups going crazy. Our troops
now could get sucked in not just into a civil war,
(22:24):
but into now jihadist terrorist atrocities, and they will come
after our men and our women. We should not be
getting involved in Syria. Yet ironically under Biden, we are
now more involved than ever. We are now responsible for
(22:44):
the jihadists who now govern or at least rule the
capital and parts of the country. And I believe we
are now making Biden has made one of the biggest
mistakes of his presidency, and he is gonna hand Trump
a mess a mess, pull our military base out, get
(23:09):
all of our troops out, get the hell out of Syria.
Six one seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight agree, disagree?
Jay in Dorchester, you're gonna kick us off. Thanks for
holding Jay and welcome.
Speaker 4 (23:27):
I think Jeff. It's not Jay, it's Jimmy.
Speaker 1 (23:30):
Jimmy I'm sorry, you know, Mike, I know it was Mike.
Mike's an Alabama fan. I loves the Alabama Crimson Tide.
He's really down this morning, Jimmy. They didn't make the
college football playoff, so he's not himself today. I mean, Mike,
for God's sake, Mike, snap out of it, my friend.
(23:55):
All right, my apologies, Jimmy in Dorchester.
Speaker 4 (23:59):
Welcome, my friend, good managers. I want to make three points.
First to Syria. Remember in twenty thirteen, Obama and Biden.
Biden was the vice president, Obama was the president. Remember,
they wanted a former coalition to go into Syria because
the rebels there, and remember Obama called them what do
(24:22):
you call that? Called them what to call freedom fighters?
He equipped them with weapons, but they were at al Qaeda.
He was sending weapons to our Cia with al Qaeda.
And then in twenty thirteen, when he formed this coalition
because things were getting nasty over there, he only got
two countries that would join this coalition. No pot of Europe.
(24:44):
Nobody wanted any pot of Syria at that time. They
were under Iran where they were loyal Tyrne and Russia.
Speaker 1 (24:54):
You know, you're completely right, Jimmy, Look, he called them
freedom fighters. He was arming al Qaeda, and isis Obama was.
And then, if you remember, he drew a red line.
This is all at the feet of Obama. Ultimately, this
is Obama bears primary responsibility now for the absolute nightmare
that is serious. He then drew a red line saying
(25:17):
a SAD can't use chemical weapons.
Speaker 2 (25:19):
When chemical weapons.
Speaker 1 (25:20):
Were used, he didn't enforce his red line. But then, Jimmy,
he invited the Russians. People forget that. Obama went to
Putin and said, let's end the fighting together. Well by
inviting in the Russians, Putin jumped in outbowed everybody else out,
helped a SOD win the civil war a couple years
(25:43):
ago and preserve these Russian bases that they have on
the Mediterranean. And it led to a vicious vicious I mean,
it was a slaughter and it seemed like Asad was
safe for a while. But now the war in Ukraine
has really weakened Russia. You can see that. I mean,
this is a humiliating blow to the Russians. They may
(26:06):
even lose their bases now in Syria. I can tell
you this at home openly.
Speaker 2 (26:11):
Now in the media. Putin is being openly.
Speaker 1 (26:13):
Attacked and criticized for the fall of Asad and the
fall of Syria. So this is a real blow to Putin,
to the Mullahs in Iran, to Hesballah. You can see
now Iran is badly weakened. And that was the vacuum
that enabled Turkey and our Cia to join together to
(26:35):
put al Keda back in power. But to me, Jimmy,
what I can't wrap my mind around, why the hell
would we want al Qaeda back in power? Have we
forgotten nine to eleven already? Have we forgotten the three
thousand dead?
Speaker 2 (26:51):
Already?
Speaker 1 (26:53):
You're gonna let these medieval animals, these crazed jihadists control
a strategic country like Syria. Now Israel is trying to
minimize the impact the last forty eight hours. This is
a story our media is barely covering. The Israelis have
(27:16):
been launching hundreds, I mean hundreds of airstrikes, strike after
strike after strike in Syria, targeting munitions depots, weapons depots,
weapons storages. They're trying to destroy these chemical weapons plants.
They're trying to destroy these places where they believe missiles
(27:37):
are being housed or armored vehicles. In other words, they
want to give al Qaeda as little as possible as
they now seize power. But they're not going to get everything.
So there are chemical weapons stockpiles, they're going to get
some of it. They're going to get armored personnel carriers,
(27:57):
they're going to get missiles, they're going to get sephi
sticated equipment.
Speaker 2 (28:02):
And who do you think it's going to be used on? Initially, yes,
on the Christians, on the other minorities.
Speaker 1 (28:09):
But believe me, you ask al Kada their number one enemy.
It's not even Israel, it's US. And we just gave
them Syria on a silver platter, Jimmy, with nearly one
thousand troops. Are men and women sitting there almost completely
exposed in the desert. Final word to you, Jimmy.
Speaker 4 (28:32):
Point, Jeff, Israel is sending their forces to the Golden
Heights as you're talking to me right now, because they're
afraid that something's going to happen with these rebels to
be coming toward the Golden Heights.
Speaker 2 (28:48):
You're right, the Golden Heights.
Speaker 1 (28:49):
Yeah, they're sent in their military look privately, publicly, Netanyah,
who obviously is happy a sawd is gone a saw.
It has been a lifelong enemy of Israel. But privately
he and his people are saying, we may have something
even worse, okay, history in the making, and it's going
to have massive ramifications, not just in the Middle East,
(29:12):
not just in the in Europe, but here and around
the world. Beshar al Asad's regime in Syria has now fallen,
fallen now to al Qaeda Islamist rebels who now occupy
the capital and large swaths of the country. Furthermore, Isis
is now re emerging within Syria. They now occupy at
(29:36):
least chunks about four chunks of territory within Syria. Turkey
now is moving in as well. It is turning into
an absolute disaster on every front. Six one seven two six,
six sixty eight sixty eight is the number, okay. And
by the way, Biden is trying to claim credit that
(29:58):
this is somehow some great victory for freedom and democracy.
You can text us seven zero four seven zero seven
zero four seven zero. This is from nine to one seven.
Speaker 2 (30:11):
Jeff.
Speaker 1 (30:12):
We are seeing the deliberate setting the world on fire
to hamstring Donald Trump. Nothing could be more clear. And
Obama is the arsonist Bingo well, Syria was his baby.
I mean, Obama was really the architect of the death,
(30:36):
the destruction, the absolute collapse of Syria and arming all
of these rebels was his policy. And now they've achieved
their goal. Islam now controls a major state between the
Euphrates River and the Mediterranean. It is a massive victory
(30:59):
for radical as long there's no other way to spin it.
Six one seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight. Okay,
just super quick, give me one more minute and then
I'm going to go back to the to the phone lines.
The leader of Turkey, strongman dictator receptaep Er to Han,
(31:22):
eleven days ago held a press conference in which he
admitted that he was bankrolling and supporting many of these rebels,
and he said our goal is the fall of Asad.
He openly said it, and he gave the green light
to Turkey's terrorist proxies in Syria. Now, if you remember,
(31:47):
the Turks are the ones who are behind the mass
murder and ethnic cleansing of Armenian Christians in the Gorno Karabakh.
Air to Han is dream of an Ottoman empire, a
neo second Ottoman empire controlled by Istanbul and an Anchora
(32:10):
the capital, and so they've now made their move to
supplant Russia and Iran as the big players in Syria
and across much of the region. And so he helped
bankroll a group along with our Cia, a group called
Hayete or Hayat Tar al Sham and it goes by
(32:36):
HTS a HTS. They are an al Qaeda affiliate and
they are the major rebel group. And they burst out
from Idlib, which was their stronghold, and within eleven days,
with Syria shattered after thirteen years of fighting, with Iran
(32:59):
now week after being attacked by Israel repeatedly and strike
after strike, with hamas It's proxy being decimated, has Bela,
its other proxy being crushed. The Amulas now were on
the ropes and they could offer As'd no more assistance.
He then appealed to Vladimir Putin. Putin, though has lost
(33:22):
hundreds of thousands of Russian troops, the fighting in eastern
Ukraine is now more intense than ever. He is bogged
down in Ukraine and told As'd, I can't do a
thing for you. So, with his allies now disappearing, Asad
his government forces simply melted away. They capitulated, and yesterday
(33:46):
morning a sad like a coward, fled Syria and is
now safely in Moscow, according to reports with his family
and now. The leader of HTA is a man known
as Abu Mohammad al Jolani. Okay, Jolani, just remember Jolani.
(34:08):
You're gonna know this name. It's going to become a
very prominent name. Jolani is a follower of Osama bin Laden.
Jolani cut his teeth in the insurgency against Americans in Iraq.
Jolani has murdered American soldiers and American troops in Iraq
(34:33):
on behalf of al Qaeda. Jolani has our own state
department to show you how insane this all is. While
Biden our Cia, our state department, CNN, MSNBC, Fox News,
(34:54):
our gullible, naive, frankly ignorant media as they're cheering al
Jolani as the George Washington of the Mediterranean, I swear
to you, Oh it's good, it's on your day in Syria,
freedom freedom. Our own state department has a ten million
(35:18):
dollar bounty on his head for international terrorism. This is
the guy now that's running Syria for God's sake, HTS
is on our terrorism watch list. So the group that
we armed, funded and helped propel the power along with
(35:41):
the Turks is Our, is a group that's not only
tied to Alcada, they're on our own terrorist watch list
and that of Great Britain, and that of the European Union,
and that of every other Western country, and that of
is And Joe Biden is taking a victory lap. Are
(36:06):
you kidding me? I just I gotta say this. You
know Obama's nickname for joey Okay, it was the f
up Okay, the f up And as he always told
people around him, nobody could f something up like Joe Biden.
(36:26):
This guy has so efed up Syria now, and God forbid,
I hope it doesn't burn our troops there. That's why
we've got to get our troops out of there. But
he has so efed up Syria that I'm telling you,
like the fall of Iran to the Mullas in nineteen
(36:47):
seventy and nine under Carter, this is gonna haunt us
for decades to come. And my fear, I'm gonna be
brutally honest with you, like I'm in the confessional. I
hate to do this to you on a Monday morning,
especially after I saw Trump in Europe triumphant, doing that
(37:07):
power handshake with Macron, everybody kissing his ring at the
restoration of the Notre Dame Cathedral, where world leader after
world leader after world leader was there, you know, congratulating Trump.
You can see Trump is back, America is back. I
wanted to come in with a positive story today. Believe me,
(37:30):
there's a lot going on with Trump I'm very happy about.
But then this happens. I'm like, this guy's unbelievable. January twenty.
I can't come fast enough. This is gonna haunt us
for decades. And I just pray to God that our
(37:52):
troops are not killed or maimed, and that as a result,
there is not another nine to eleven. Controlling Afghanistan was
one thing you control Syria. A ya yai, A ya yai.
(38:13):
This is insane, This is reckless, this is dangerous. I'm
telling you, this is treason. The very terrorist Islamist jihadist
group responsible for three thousand dead Americans on nine to
eleven has now been put into power in Syria by
(38:40):
our own government and our own CIA, along with Turkey, obviously,
Hey those comebacks that sick, vile Airdohan regime. Okay, but
let that go. And the media is celebrating this. Have
(39:02):
you forgotten nine to eleven? Already get our troops out
before he gets more of our people killed.
Speaker 2 (39:15):
Agree?
Speaker 1 (39:15):
Disagree? Should the United States get involved in Syria? Should
it get further involved in Syria? And Joe Biden as
he now committed one of the greatest foreign policy debuckles
in American history. Six one, seven two, six, six sixty
(39:36):
eight sixty eight lines are loaded. Angelo in Rockland, Thanks
for holding Angelo, and welcome.
Speaker 4 (39:47):
By.
Speaker 5 (39:47):
Well.
Speaker 4 (39:47):
If I don't hear from you from Christmas, merry Christmas.
Speaker 2 (39:51):
But anyway, Merry Christmas, all the best to you and
your family.
Speaker 4 (39:54):
Angelo, Thank you, Thank you. Jeff. Yeah, looking at this mess,
it's unbelievable. This is the squad with Obama, part of
their plan deep roots with these terrorists on nine to eleven.
Israel's nine to eleven has to be dealt with, and
thank God for Israel, they do what they have to do.
(40:15):
That being said, they threw another hand grenade here to
start another bee's nest, to take out the cleanup of
Hamas over there. But but but America could could definitely
take care of the two fronts. What I want to
say is they got to get our troops protected right now,
ear strikes alone, I don't think they're gonna do it.
(40:37):
They gotta get boots on the ground, get our guys out,
and clean up as they go. It's terrible, we have
to do that. But what are these people thinking. Yeah,
and then don't forget we get the squad and all
these people entrenched in our government that are supporting these
these efforts against the United States and against the Christians.
(40:59):
Let let's say what it is. But I think that
the good will rise here and if they want to
live in peace, will live in peace. If not, they're
gonna they're gonna see hell quick. Trump's around the corner
and clean up our government where you're at these trees
and as people, And that's what I got to say.
Speaker 1 (41:19):
Well, you know, Angela, Look, look this is the thing.
I think they're trying to ambush Trump. This is going
to be they're trying to derail his agenda. And this
is a tinderbox now they've created with Syria. There's no
question now, I mean, the Russians are humiliated, the Iranians
are humiliated somewhere out of the blue. Now Turkey has
(41:40):
become a major power, and Israel is now getting embroiled,
and they want to get Trump mixed up in this mess.
And he's got much bigger fish to fry. And that's
what I interviewed with christ with Kristin Welker. He made
that very clear. He goes, I got to focus on
our border. We've got a invasion here. We're being overrun
(42:02):
by illegals. I mean, I've got he goes, We've got
cities now with crime exploding. We've got an economy now
that is getting weaker and weaker and weaker. We've got
high inflation, high interest rates, middle working class people are
really struggling. We've got a huge debt. I mean, this
guy is that Biden is the worst president we have
(42:25):
ever had. It's not even close. And I just can't
believe that. You know, as Trump said, he goes, the
world is out of control. His words, not mine. He goes,
the world's crazy right now, the world is out of control.
He goes, I don't know how many fires I'm gonna
have to put out when I come in. All this
guy does is putting up more fires. And more fires
(42:47):
and more fires. Now you know, if I told anybody, hey,
Bashara Saud is going to lose the war, people will say, okay,
well I don't know who want who loves Bashari Sad
but Alcade is going to take over. People say, oh
my god, that's a geopolitical disaster.
Speaker 2 (43:07):
Well that's just what happened.
Speaker 1 (43:10):
And instead, this idiot holds a press conference yesterday and
he's bragging, he's showboating, he's celebrating.
Speaker 2 (43:19):
Ah I got it.
Speaker 1 (43:22):
Oh wait got it? A ya yai a ya yai, Angelo,
thank you very much for that call. Here's here's Joey.
Here's Joey. Here he is World cut four D Mike.
Speaker 3 (43:46):
As I've said, this moment of considerable risk and uncertainty,
but I also believe this is the best opportunity in
generations for series to forge their own future free of opposition.
It's also an opportunity, through far from certain that was
far from certain, for more secure and prospers in middle least,
(44:09):
where our friends are safe, our enemies are contained. And
it would be a waste of this historic opportunity if
one tyrant were top of them and only to see
a new one rise up in his place.
Speaker 2 (44:22):
Have we learned nothing? Are you seriously?
Speaker 1 (44:24):
Have we learned nothing when we helped remove has Remember
that was Obama who did that. When we supported a
so called Arab spring and we helped remove Hasney Mubarik
in Egypt, remember him, the longtime strong man. What did
the Egyptians get? They got the Muslim brotherhood. They were
worse than Mubarik in every way, they were worse. We
(44:47):
removed Kadafi, what did we get?
Speaker 2 (44:49):
Literally?
Speaker 1 (44:50):
Al Qaeda worse? We removed Saddam? What did we get worse?
That's when I disappeared? Like many times? Do we have
to keep doing this over and over and over again?
So now we've removed a sad An historic opportunity, which
(45:10):
be a shame if we wasted it. Well, why don't
you look at the thug that you just helped put
in power, al Jolani. Look at what he did in
Syria many years now. You know parts of Syria have
always been run by al Qaeda in his group. Look
at what he does. He imposes Sharia law. Check, he
(45:34):
denies women fundamental rights. Check, he cleanses and massacres every Christian,
every Alloyite, every Azd every non Sunni minority.
Speaker 2 (45:48):
Check.
Speaker 1 (45:49):
In fact, he enters Damascus. This was on the weekend. Okay,
al Jolani, the al Qaeda leader, the one that just
now is ruling the country. He goes to an eighth
century mosque, one of the oldest mosques in Syria, and
surrounded by his Jihotist thugs, terrorists with their kalishnikov shooting
(46:11):
in the air, and they're shooting in the air, and
they're shooting in the air. And he turns around and
he says, we have now won a great victory for
Islam quote unquote for the Muslim nation, and Syria will
now become a true Muslim nation under Islamic law and
(46:36):
Sharia law. So what do you think you think what
this is gonna be? I don't know, Sweden, Sweden on
the Mediterranean, this is Oh yeah, he's going to be
very tolerant, Oh yeah, very diverse, Oh yeah, very oh yeah, no, no, hey, hey,
he's going to be respectful of every minority religious f
(47:00):
in the group. Oh yeah, sure, that's exactly what the
talaman said when they rolled into cable And look at
the place. Now it's an Islamist hell hole. Six one seven,
two six six sixty eight sixty eight is the number
Vince in Germany. Thanks for holding Vince, and welcome.
Speaker 6 (47:25):
Morning, Jeff Vince.
Speaker 5 (47:27):
So, so the saying goes, screw me once, shame on you.
Screw me twice, shame on me. And if the American
people buy this BS, we deserve everything we get.
Speaker 6 (47:43):
I mean, it's plainly obvious that they are trying to
rip the lid off the world before Trump takes office.
Speaker 5 (47:50):
So he's just left.
Speaker 6 (47:52):
With an excrement sandwich and we'll all have to take
a bite. But what I want to say to you is,
although this is concerning and it came out of nowhere,
it actually didn't come out of nowhere because if you
pay attention, all of this stuff has just been grewing.
But what's most concerning is what's going on in Romania,
(48:14):
where they basically overturned a legitimate election because they said
it was Russia. What they're trying to do is to
go the Russians into attacking Romania, which is a NATO country.
Speaker 1 (48:32):
What say you, yeah, look, I mean it's Romania, it's Georgia.
You can see the globalists are pressing on every single
front and they're very worried. You can see they're very
worried about Trump coming to power. They're worried that their
grip on power is now slowly slipping away, and they
(48:56):
want they want to push Russia back as much as possible.
But you know, to be brutally honest, though, Vince, Look,
you know, look, I'm an American, Okay, to me, the
only interests I care about is the American interest, period
full stop. But I got to say, the fall of
Assad is no question a real body blow to Putin.
(49:17):
He puts so much of his regimes prestige behind propping
up Asad. A lot of Russians were sent into Syria,
many of them came home in body bags. And Putin
did it, I understand it from his point of view,
to defend you know, the Russian They got a key
naval base there, a key air base there, a hot
(49:38):
warm water port on the Mediterranean, very important Russian strategic
interests involved. And they don't want the Islamists taking over
that country because it's gonna hurt Russia. So that's why
they kept propping up Asad. But you know, you put
such an investment in the guy and then when he's
on the ropes and the rebels are launching this massive,
(50:02):
you know, blitzkrieg, and he goes and calls up Putin.
Putin says, I've got nothing to give you because everything
I have is in Ukraine. That shows that the war
has taken a toll on Russia and the Russians are
bogged down as well. And in fact, Trump made that point,
and I thought it was a very perceptive point. He goes, Look,
(50:23):
I met with Zelenski in France at the reopening of
the Notre Dame Cathedral and he said, look, the fall
of Syria or the fall of Asad, shows that Putin
is in a much weaker position. Zelensky has now told
Trump that the Ukrainians are exhausted, that they want a
(50:44):
peace steal. So Trump is now urging Putin, saying, hey, look,
you're taking massive casualties. You just lost Syria. It could
be much worse for you if this continues.
Good morning, Kooner contry. Okay, my friends, this is one
of the biggest stories, not just in.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
The world, but in many ways, it is.
Speaker 1 (00:13):
History in the making. Over the weekend, the house of
Bashar Assad fell. It was overthrown in a massive lightning
offensive by al Qaeda Jihaddist rebels. And what is incredible,
my friends, is not just that the Assad dynasty which
(00:37):
has ruled over Syria for over fifty years. The father
Hafez Assad the son Bashar Asad have ruled that country
with an iron fist for over half a century. But,
my friends, we are now witnessing the unfolding of another Afghanistan.
(00:59):
American troops, over nine hundred of them, are now trapped
inside Syria with little protection, little fortification. They are sitting ducks.
The United States had to conduct massive air strikes over
the weekend to try to limit ISIS, which is now
(01:22):
also gaining momentum with the power vacuum left by the
fall of Bisharhisad and his dictatorial regime. So here is
exactly now what is taking place? My friends, As I
wrote on X last night, while are corrupt and frankly stupid,
I'm sorry. There's just no other way to put it,
(01:43):
are incredibly ignorant and stupid media and political elites, and
especially the media who are cheering on the downfall of
Assad and the rising now to power of al Qaeda rebels.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
Al Qaeda, the group now.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
The major faction that has now seized power in the
capital of Syria, Damascus, is literally an Al Qaeda group
that calls for sharial law, jihadism within Syria, a Muslim
Sunni radical Islamist state, for the slaughter of all Christians
(02:27):
within Syria, for the slaughter of others and other minority groups.
And apparently now as Biden took a victory lap yesterday,
he is bragging that our CIA, essentially the Brennan CIA,
armed and funded these jihadist Islamist Al Qaeda rebels.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
Along with Turkey.
Speaker 1 (02:54):
And I'm going to get to Turkey in a second,
because Turkey now is playing a massive role in the
overthrow of As'ad and in putting now a client state
in power in Damascus. But for our purposes, what ultimately
matters is that now the very Islamists, the very terrorist
(03:17):
group responsible for nine to eleven, responsible for the deaths
of over three thousand Americans, are now in Damascus, and
they are ransacking the presidential palace. They have now controlled
every branch and institution of the government. Their jihadist paramilitaries
(03:43):
are now on the streets of Damascus firing guns into
the air. And now the age of Islamism is back
in Syria. And so over the last eleven days, here
is exactly what took place, with Russia now bogged down
(04:03):
in a war in Ukraine, with Iran now having seen
its pop proxies Hamas in Gaza, Hezbollah in Lebanon suffer massive,
huge damage in Israel's defensive war. After October seventh, With
(04:24):
Iran itself now severely weakened, rebels in the north of Syria,
supported and armed by Biden's CIA and Brennan CIA, along
with Turkey's Erdohan, and these, as I said, are stone
cold Islamist killers, launched a lightning offensive eleven days ago
(04:48):
and they met little to no resistance. They first seized
the northern city of Aleppo. From Aleppo, they went to
Hama like Domino's they fell then to Han and before
you knew it, by the weekend, Damascus itself, the ultimate prize,
fell to al Qaeda and the Islamists beshh Asad and
(05:13):
his family fled Syria yesterday morning to Russia, who has
now offered them asylum. The Assaud regime is now over,
it has collapsed. It has been toppled, deposed, and ousted.
And Joe Biden yesterday addressed the American people, and I
(05:36):
swear to you bragged, bragged that Assad is gone, and
that Al Qaeda, known there in Syria as HTS that's
the name of the al Qaeda affiliate. The main rebel
faction is now the de facto ruler.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
Of that country. Roll cut one, Mike.
Speaker 3 (06:02):
What happened in the Middle East? After thirteen years a
civil war in Syria more than half a century brutal
authoritarianed role by a shu Asad as father before him,
rebel forces are forced Assad to resign his office and
flee the country. We're not sure he is, but there's
(06:23):
word that he's in Moscow. A long last. The sod
regime has fallen.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
He then went on to say that you admitted he said, no,
we played a big part in this. No, we wanted
these rebels to come to power. No no, no, no,
we backed them, we funded them, we armed them.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
How I helped do it, I'm Joey.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
And then unbelievably, he then said, there's an historic opportunity
now for the people of Syria.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
Roll cut one a Mike.
Speaker 3 (07:02):
This regime brutalized and tortured and killed literally hundreds of
thousands of venice Assyrians. A fall the res is a
fundamental lack of justice. It's a moment of historic opportunity
for the long suffering people of Syria to build a
better future for the proud country. It's also a moment
of risk and uncertainty as we all turn to the
(07:25):
question of what comes next. The United States will work
with our partners and the stakeholders in Syria help them
seize an opportunity to manage the risks.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
This is incredible. I mean, honestly, this is incredible. Now, look,
there's no question Bisad was a murderous tyrant, a butcher,
a dictator, no question about it. And it's not that, oh,
Jeff Cooner is mourning that, you know, the fall of Assad.
Quite the contrary. But but we haven't learned the thing
(07:59):
in the Middle East. What's gonna come after Assad is
gonna be even worse. What came after Kadafi in Libya
was worse. What came after Saddam in Iraq was worse.
The Arab spring of twenty eleven that Obama encouraged. Yes,
(08:20):
dictators were overthrown, like Cosni Mubarik in Egypt, but what
did they get? They got the Muslim brotherhood. In other words,
all you ended up doing was empowering Islamist fanatics and extremists,
even bigger murderers, even more to even bigger mass murderers
(08:42):
and and and and torturers than the secular dictators that
were overthrown. Now, in particular, the rebel group. Now there
are many rebel groups, there are many factions, but the
dominant one is Al Qaeda. In Syria, they just changed
their name, in fact, their leader, and he looks like
(09:05):
he's going to be now. The incoming leader of Syria
is himself a disciple of Osama bin Laden. He is
himself a longtime Al Qaeda jihadist who now is hoodwinking
the West the way the Taliban did. If you remember
when the Taliban seized power in twenty twenty one, after
(09:26):
we withdrew all of our US forces, and then the
Taliban launched another lightning offensive and the government forces melted
in the face of that offensive, What did the Taliban say, Oh, no,
we will not seek retribution against anybody who worked with
the United States or the previous government. Oh no, we
(09:47):
respect women's rights. No, we're going to have a free media.
And we all know how that turned out. It has
been a disaster for the people of Afghanistan. The same
thing applies now to Syria. It will now become a
radical Islamist soon y state run by al Qaeda that
(10:10):
is going to be exporting terrorism and Jihaudism, not just
across the region, but across the world and more immediately,
we have nine hundred US troops, like in Afghanistan before
that are now trapped. They are pinned down with limited
(10:31):
help and support. And Joe Biden now is desperately trying
to launch air strikes to make sure that our boys
aren't slaughtered because they're sitting ducks. Okay, Kuner country, do
not believe the propaganda that is coming now from the
so called establishment elite media and from the political elites
(10:54):
in our country. They are complicit in what is happening
in Syria, and it is an absolute crime, a crime
against humanity, a crime against the people of Syria. And
ultimately a crime against the people of America, Europe and
the West. And as I said on X and I
will now say it again, the fact now that al
(11:15):
Qaeda al Qaeda has come back to power, this time
in Syria, America and.
Speaker 2 (11:24):
Europe will rule the day.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
And that is literally the main faction they're called HTS,
that has now taken over the Syrian government. They have
ransacked the presidential palace. In fact, they're already committing massive
atrocities against people they suspect we're loyal to Asad. This
is now a thirteen year civil war that is finally
(11:50):
coming to an end. Now if you look at the
pockets of Syria in which HTS, this ALCA rebel faction
that has now won the civil war. They have been
backed by our CIA, in fact Biden's CIA to be
part know to be specific, and Turkey. They have committed
(12:14):
massive violations against women, against Christians, against the Yazides, against minorities,
and their slogan is the Allo Whites to Tehran, the
Alohites are like a Chiite sect. The Alohites to Tehran,
the Christians to the wall, meaning you line them up
(12:36):
and you shoot them. So this idea now that Syria
is going to become a multi ethnic, multi religious, tlerant
diverse country is an absolute lie. It is the same playbook.
Speaker 2 (12:57):
Over and over.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
Al Qaeda now runs much of Libya, the Islamists now
run much of Iraq. I could go country after country
that Taliban is back in power fully in Afghanistan, and
now Syria has fallen. And the bigger danger is that
(13:21):
this was so quick. It was such a lightning offensive.
The government of Asad shriveled and melted away so quickly
that it caught everyone off guard, including by the way,
the Biden regime. And so we now have just slightly
over nine hundred troops American troops. They are located primarily
(13:44):
in eastern Syria. They have very little protection. We have
one military base. It is completely exposed. They are sitting ducks.
Isis is now running wild. Al Qaeda now has won
its most significant victory since nine to eleven. They didn't
(14:08):
just forget Afghanistan. Syria is a strategic beachhead in the
heart of the Mediterranean, and this is now the country
that al Qaeda will be governing, or at least much
of it handed to them on a silver platter by
Biden's Cia.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
Now, is this a.
Speaker 1 (14:31):
Blow to Russia, No question, Russia spent a lot of money,
They sent a lot of Russian troops, a lot of
Russians died, a lot of Russian mothers were grieving and
burying their sons back in mother Russia. And now Syria,
the Assad regime that Putin propped up, that the Mullas
(14:52):
also tried to prop up, has now completely collapsed. So
this is a massive blow to russia prestige, Russia's influence,
Russia's authority. It is also a massive blow to the
Mullahs in Tehran. So this is going to have massive
regional implications. But my primary concern is our troops, our
(15:18):
men and women, and our interests. And yes, Assad was
a monster, no question, he was a vicious, vicious dictator
and criminal. But as Donald Trump rightly said on truth
Social yesterday, stay out of Syria. It is not our fight,
it is a viper's nest. And instead Biden has gotten
(15:43):
us now directly involved by arming, funding, and supporting this
Al Qaeda rebel movement and launching them into power. And
now as I speak to you, American airstrike are pounding
central Syria and our troops now are completely exposed and vulnerable.
(16:08):
I don't want them to be held hostage. I don't
want them to be kidnapped. I don't want them to
be attacked. I don't want to see a repeat of
what happened at Abby Gate, at the airport in Cable
where thirteen Marines were slaughtered by an al Qaeda ISIS terrorist.
And let me just make one final point, and then
I want to open it up to you. Six one
(16:30):
seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight is the number.
Speaker 2 (16:36):
What is to me incredible.
Speaker 1 (16:39):
Is that this regime, the Biden regime, in order to
hand Trump a mess, in order to do maximum damage
to him and his incoming administration, as now handed to
him a country in complete turmoil, incomplete chaos, in which
(17:05):
our mortal enemies. Remember, whatever you think about Bashar Assaud,
he was not an enemy of the United States. Six
one seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight.
Speaker 2 (17:18):
You know, Sandy made a very very good point.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
To me while we were off air Biden yesterday addressing
the country following the fall of the Bashar assad regime
in Syria, and apparently now a sad in his family
have fled to Russia, where Putin has granted them asylum.
That Biden is looking at this as his legacy. He
(17:40):
wants a legacy, and he thinks his legacy will be
you know, I'm Joey. I helped to bring down the
dictator Bashar Assad. But he's not seeing what comes next.
You know, as Sandy, I thought you said in a
very funny way, he doesn't play chess, hell does you
can't play backgammon, forget checkers, So he doesn't see or
(18:05):
he doesn't care what comes next. Yes, it's easy to
cheer the fall of a sad of course, who the
hell wants to saw it in power? I mean, the
man's a butcher. But what if what comes next is
infinitely worse? Has anybody thought of that? And especially that
it would be our mortal enemies al Qaeda? That to
(18:30):
me is what's absolutely shocking. Now, let me just say
one final thing, and then I want to go to
the phone lines six one seven two six six sixty
eight sixty eight. The question and the to me, the
only question that matters to us now, if I'm a
Christian in Syria, I'm telling you right now I'm getting
the hell out of there. The Christians in Syria are
(18:55):
going to be exterminated. Remember, Syria is one of the
ancient strongholds of Christianity if you read the Bible, I
mean it's you know, you know the road to Damascus conversion.
I mean, Syria has some of the oldest Christian believers
in the world, along with Egypt and North Africa.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
That entire area. The Christians now are going to get
wiped out.
Speaker 1 (19:24):
The Yazides now are going to be driven out of Syria,
and the Alloites now are going to be facing massive recrimination.
It is going to be an absolute bloodbath. You also
have the Kurds in the in the northern part and
the eastern part of the country that by the way,
(19:45):
are fighting Isis. But now the Kurds are facing Turkish
forces because the Turks.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
Now are going to impose their control over Syria.
Speaker 1 (19:55):
They're the ones really along with our Cia, bankrolling al
Qaeda and HTS as they now govern Syria or try to.
So the Kurds now are going to get crushed in
northeastern Syria.
Speaker 2 (20:10):
So what you're looking at now.
Speaker 1 (20:13):
Is the complete fragmentation and disintegration of Syria. That is
a very real possibility. And as I told Sandy, I said, Sandy,
I don't know if you remember this or not, but
Lebanon in the late nineteen seventies, early eighties, it was
always on the news where it was all out. I
know we've had civil war for thirteen years in Syria,
(20:35):
but what I'm talking about in Lebanon was almost like
hundreds of different factions all warring and squabbling with each
other and the country just being torn to pieces. This
is now what may happen to Syria. The whole thing
now can just ultimately fall apart, just completely fall apart. Now,
(20:59):
for our interests, we don't want an Islamist Syria, and
by the way, I would think Israel wouldn't want one either,
especially remember Bisharhasad had chemical weapons. Is al Qaeda now
going to get their hands on these weapons? Are they
going to get a hold of these chemical weapons, stockpiles,
(21:22):
armored vehicles, missiles, combat planes. In the hands of al Qaeda,
they can do tremendous damage, not just to our interests,
our people, our embassies in the Middle East, but they
could hit Europe, God forbid, they can hit us here.
(21:42):
So an Islamist Syria is country is detrimental. It is,
frankly to me, completely against American interests and more immediately,
we've got to get our troops out. They are sitting ducks,
(22:03):
and he's left behind nearly a thousand of them. And
with ISIS now running wild, Alcaeda now controlling the country,
you've got Islamist now paramilitary groups going crazy. Our troops
now could get sucked in not just into a civil war,
(22:24):
but into now jihadist terrorist atrocities, and they will come
after our men and our women. We should not be
getting involved in Syria. Yet ironically under Biden, we are
now more involved than ever. We are now responsible for
(22:44):
the jihadists who now govern or at least rule the
capital and parts of the country. And I believe we
are now making Biden has made one of the biggest
mistakes of his presidency, and he is gonna hand Trump
a mess a mess, pull our military base out, get
(23:09):
all of our troops out, get the hell out of Syria.
Six one seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight agree, disagree?
Jay in Dorchester, you're gonna kick us off. Thanks for
holding Jay and welcome.
Speaker 4 (23:27):
I think Jeff. It's not Jay, it's Jimmy.
Speaker 1 (23:30):
Jimmy I'm sorry, you know, Mike, I know it was Mike.
Mike's an Alabama fan. I loves the Alabama Crimson Tide.
He's really down this morning, Jimmy. They didn't make the
college football playoff, so he's not himself today. I mean, Mike,
for God's sake, Mike, snap out of it, my friend.
(23:55):
All right, my apologies, Jimmy in Dorchester.
Speaker 4 (23:59):
Welcome, my friend, good managers. I want to make three points.
First to Syria. Remember in twenty thirteen, Obama and Biden.
Biden was the vice president, Obama was the president. Remember,
they wanted a former coalition to go into Syria because
the rebels there, and remember Obama called them what do
(24:22):
you call that? Called them what to call freedom fighters?
He equipped them with weapons, but they were at al Qaeda.
He was sending weapons to our Cia with al Qaeda.
And then in twenty thirteen, when he formed this coalition
because things were getting nasty over there, he only got
two countries that would join this coalition. No pot of Europe.
(24:44):
Nobody wanted any pot of Syria at that time. They
were under Iran where they were loyal Tyrne and Russia.
Speaker 1 (24:54):
You know, you're completely right, Jimmy, Look, he called them
freedom fighters. He was arming al Qaeda, and isis Obama was.
And then, if you remember, he drew a red line.
This is all at the feet of Obama. Ultimately, this
is Obama bears primary responsibility now for the absolute nightmare
that is serious. He then drew a red line saying
(25:17):
a SAD can't use chemical weapons.
Speaker 2 (25:19):
When chemical weapons.
Speaker 1 (25:20):
Were used, he didn't enforce his red line. But then, Jimmy,
he invited the Russians. People forget that. Obama went to
Putin and said, let's end the fighting together. Well by
inviting in the Russians, Putin jumped in outbowed everybody else out,
helped a SOD win the civil war a couple years
(25:43):
ago and preserve these Russian bases that they have on
the Mediterranean. And it led to a vicious vicious I mean,
it was a slaughter and it seemed like Asad was
safe for a while. But now the war in Ukraine
has really weakened Russia. You can see that. I mean,
this is a humiliating blow to the Russians. They may
(26:06):
even lose their bases now in Syria. I can tell
you this at home openly.
Speaker 2 (26:11):
Now in the media. Putin is being openly.
Speaker 1 (26:13):
Attacked and criticized for the fall of Asad and the
fall of Syria. So this is a real blow to Putin,
to the Mullahs in Iran, to Hesballah. You can see
now Iran is badly weakened. And that was the vacuum
that enabled Turkey and our Cia to join together to
(26:35):
put al Keda back in power. But to me, Jimmy,
what I can't wrap my mind around, why the hell
would we want al Qaeda back in power? Have we
forgotten nine to eleven already? Have we forgotten the three
thousand dead?
Speaker 2 (26:51):
Already?
Speaker 1 (26:53):
You're gonna let these medieval animals, these crazed jihadists control
a strategic country like Syria. Now Israel is trying to
minimize the impact the last forty eight hours. This is
a story our media is barely covering. The Israelis have
(27:16):
been launching hundreds, I mean hundreds of airstrikes, strike after
strike after strike in Syria, targeting munitions depots, weapons depots,
weapons storages. They're trying to destroy these chemical weapons plants.
They're trying to destroy these places where they believe missiles
(27:37):
are being housed or armored vehicles. In other words, they
want to give al Qaeda as little as possible as
they now seize power. But they're not going to get everything.
So there are chemical weapons stockpiles, they're going to get
some of it. They're going to get armored personnel carriers,
(27:57):
they're going to get missiles, they're going to get sephi
sticated equipment.
Speaker 2 (28:02):
And who do you think it's going to be used on? Initially, yes,
on the Christians, on the other minorities.
Speaker 1 (28:09):
But believe me, you ask al Kada their number one enemy.
It's not even Israel, it's US. And we just gave
them Syria on a silver platter, Jimmy, with nearly one
thousand troops. Are men and women sitting there almost completely
exposed in the desert. Final word to you, Jimmy.
Speaker 4 (28:32):
Point, Jeff, Israel is sending their forces to the Golden
Heights as you're talking to me right now, because they're
afraid that something's going to happen with these rebels to
be coming toward the Golden Heights.
Speaker 2 (28:48):
You're right, the Golden Heights.
Speaker 1 (28:49):
Yeah, they're sent in their military look privately, publicly, Netanyah,
who obviously is happy a sawd is gone a saw.
It has been a lifelong enemy of Israel. But privately
he and his people are saying, we may have something
even worse, okay, history in the making, and it's going
to have massive ramifications, not just in the Middle East,
(29:12):
not just in the in Europe, but here and around
the world. Beshar al Asad's regime in Syria has now fallen,
fallen now to al Qaeda Islamist rebels who now occupy
the capital and large swaths of the country. Furthermore, Isis
is now re emerging within Syria. They now occupy at
(29:36):
least chunks about four chunks of territory within Syria. Turkey
now is moving in as well. It is turning into
an absolute disaster on every front. Six one seven two six,
six sixty eight sixty eight is the number, okay. And
by the way, Biden is trying to claim credit that
(29:58):
this is somehow some great victory for freedom and democracy.
You can text us seven zero four seven zero seven
zero four seven zero. This is from nine to one seven.
Speaker 2 (30:11):
Jeff.
Speaker 1 (30:12):
We are seeing the deliberate setting the world on fire
to hamstring Donald Trump. Nothing could be more clear. And
Obama is the arsonist Bingo well, Syria was his baby.
I mean, Obama was really the architect of the death,
(30:36):
the destruction, the absolute collapse of Syria and arming all
of these rebels was his policy. And now they've achieved
their goal. Islam now controls a major state between the
Euphrates River and the Mediterranean. It is a massive victory
(30:59):
for radical as long there's no other way to spin it.
Six one seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight. Okay,
just super quick, give me one more minute and then
I'm going to go back to the to the phone lines.
The leader of Turkey, strongman dictator receptaep Er to Han,
(31:22):
eleven days ago held a press conference in which he
admitted that he was bankrolling and supporting many of these rebels,
and he said our goal is the fall of Asad.
He openly said it, and he gave the green light
to Turkey's terrorist proxies in Syria. Now, if you remember,
(31:47):
the Turks are the ones who are behind the mass
murder and ethnic cleansing of Armenian Christians in the Gorno Karabakh.
Air to Han is dream of an Ottoman empire, a
neo second Ottoman empire controlled by Istanbul and an Anchora
(32:10):
the capital, and so they've now made their move to
supplant Russia and Iran as the big players in Syria
and across much of the region. And so he helped
bankroll a group along with our Cia, a group called
Hayete or Hayat Tar al Sham and it goes by
(32:36):
HTS a HTS. They are an al Qaeda affiliate and
they are the major rebel group. And they burst out
from Idlib, which was their stronghold, and within eleven days,
with Syria shattered after thirteen years of fighting, with Iran
(32:59):
now week after being attacked by Israel repeatedly and strike
after strike, with hamas It's proxy being decimated, has Bela,
its other proxy being crushed. The Amulas now were on
the ropes and they could offer As'd no more assistance.
He then appealed to Vladimir Putin. Putin, though has lost
(33:22):
hundreds of thousands of Russian troops, the fighting in eastern
Ukraine is now more intense than ever. He is bogged
down in Ukraine and told As'd, I can't do a
thing for you. So, with his allies now disappearing, Asad
his government forces simply melted away. They capitulated, and yesterday
(33:46):
morning a sad like a coward, fled Syria and is
now safely in Moscow, according to reports with his family
and now. The leader of HTA is a man known
as Abu Mohammad al Jolani. Okay, Jolani, just remember Jolani.
(34:08):
You're gonna know this name. It's going to become a
very prominent name. Jolani is a follower of Osama bin Laden.
Jolani cut his teeth in the insurgency against Americans in Iraq.
Jolani has murdered American soldiers and American troops in Iraq
(34:33):
on behalf of al Qaeda. Jolani has our own state
department to show you how insane this all is. While
Biden our Cia, our state department, CNN, MSNBC, Fox News,
(34:54):
our gullible, naive, frankly ignorant media as they're cheering al
Jolani as the George Washington of the Mediterranean, I swear
to you, Oh it's good, it's on your day in Syria,
freedom freedom. Our own state department has a ten million
(35:18):
dollar bounty on his head for international terrorism. This is
the guy now that's running Syria for God's sake, HTS
is on our terrorism watch list. So the group that
we armed, funded and helped propel the power along with
(35:41):
the Turks is Our, is a group that's not only
tied to Alcada, they're on our own terrorist watch list
and that of Great Britain, and that of the European Union,
and that of every other Western country, and that of
is And Joe Biden is taking a victory lap. Are
(36:06):
you kidding me? I just I gotta say this. You
know Obama's nickname for joey Okay, it was the f
up Okay, the f up And as he always told
people around him, nobody could f something up like Joe Biden.
(36:26):
This guy has so efed up Syria now, and God forbid,
I hope it doesn't burn our troops there. That's why
we've got to get our troops out of there. But
he has so efed up Syria that I'm telling you,
like the fall of Iran to the Mullas in nineteen
(36:47):
seventy and nine under Carter, this is gonna haunt us
for decades to come. And my fear, I'm gonna be
brutally honest with you, like I'm in the confessional. I
hate to do this to you on a Monday morning,
especially after I saw Trump in Europe triumphant, doing that
(37:07):
power handshake with Macron, everybody kissing his ring at the
restoration of the Notre Dame Cathedral, where world leader after
world leader after world leader was there, you know, congratulating Trump.
You can see Trump is back, America is back. I
wanted to come in with a positive story today. Believe me,
(37:30):
there's a lot going on with Trump I'm very happy about.
But then this happens. I'm like, this guy's unbelievable. January twenty.
I can't come fast enough. This is gonna haunt us
for decades. And I just pray to God that our
(37:52):
troops are not killed or maimed, and that as a result,
there is not another nine to eleven. Controlling Afghanistan was
one thing you control Syria. A ya yai, A ya yai.
(38:13):
This is insane, This is reckless, this is dangerous. I'm
telling you, this is treason. The very terrorist Islamist jihadist
group responsible for three thousand dead Americans on nine to
eleven has now been put into power in Syria by
(38:40):
our own government and our own CIA, along with Turkey, obviously,
Hey those comebacks that sick, vile Airdohan regime. Okay, but
let that go. And the media is celebrating this. Have
(39:02):
you forgotten nine to eleven? Already get our troops out
before he gets more of our people killed.
Speaker 2 (39:15):
Agree?
Speaker 1 (39:15):
Disagree? Should the United States get involved in Syria? Should
it get further involved in Syria? And Joe Biden as
he now committed one of the greatest foreign policy debuckles
in American history. Six one, seven two, six, six sixty
(39:36):
eight sixty eight lines are loaded. Angelo in Rockland, Thanks
for holding Angelo, and welcome.
Speaker 4 (39:47):
By.
Speaker 5 (39:47):
Well.
Speaker 4 (39:47):
If I don't hear from you from Christmas, merry Christmas.
Speaker 2 (39:51):
But anyway, Merry Christmas, all the best to you and
your family.
Speaker 4 (39:54):
Angelo, Thank you, Thank you. Jeff. Yeah, looking at this mess,
it's unbelievable. This is the squad with Obama, part of
their plan deep roots with these terrorists on nine to eleven.
Israel's nine to eleven has to be dealt with, and
thank God for Israel, they do what they have to do.
(40:15):
That being said, they threw another hand grenade here to
start another bee's nest, to take out the cleanup of
Hamas over there. But but but America could could definitely
take care of the two fronts. What I want to
say is they got to get our troops protected right now,
ear strikes alone, I don't think they're gonna do it.
(40:37):
They gotta get boots on the ground, get our guys out,
and clean up as they go. It's terrible, we have
to do that. But what are these people thinking. Yeah,
and then don't forget we get the squad and all
these people entrenched in our government that are supporting these
these efforts against the United States and against the Christians.
(40:59):
Let let's say what it is. But I think that
the good will rise here and if they want to
live in peace, will live in peace. If not, they're
gonna they're gonna see hell quick. Trump's around the corner
and clean up our government where you're at these trees
and as people, And that's what I got to say.
Speaker 1 (41:19):
Well, you know, Angela, Look, look this is the thing.
I think they're trying to ambush Trump. This is going
to be they're trying to derail his agenda. And this
is a tinderbox now they've created with Syria. There's no
question now, I mean, the Russians are humiliated, the Iranians
are humiliated somewhere out of the blue. Now Turkey has
(41:40):
become a major power, and Israel is now getting embroiled,
and they want to get Trump mixed up in this mess.
And he's got much bigger fish to fry. And that's
what I interviewed with christ with Kristin Welker. He made
that very clear. He goes, I got to focus on
our border. We've got a invasion here. We're being overrun
(42:02):
by illegals. I mean, I've got he goes, We've got
cities now with crime exploding. We've got an economy now
that is getting weaker and weaker and weaker. We've got
high inflation, high interest rates, middle working class people are
really struggling. We've got a huge debt. I mean, this
guy is that Biden is the worst president we have
(42:25):
ever had. It's not even close. And I just can't
believe that. You know, as Trump said, he goes, the
world is out of control. His words, not mine. He goes,
the world's crazy right now, the world is out of control.
He goes, I don't know how many fires I'm gonna
have to put out when I come in. All this
guy does is putting up more fires. And more fires
(42:47):
and more fires. Now you know, if I told anybody, hey,
Bashara Saud is going to lose the war, people will say, okay,
well I don't know who want who loves Bashari Sad
but Alcade is going to take over. People say, oh
my god, that's a geopolitical disaster.
Speaker 2 (43:07):
Well that's just what happened.
Speaker 1 (43:10):
And instead, this idiot holds a press conference yesterday and
he's bragging, he's showboating, he's celebrating.
Speaker 2 (43:19):
Ah I got it.
Speaker 1 (43:22):
Oh wait got it? A ya yai a ya yai, Angelo,
thank you very much for that call. Here's here's Joey.
Here's Joey. Here he is World cut four D Mike.
Speaker 3 (43:46):
As I've said, this moment of considerable risk and uncertainty,
but I also believe this is the best opportunity in
generations for series to forge their own future free of opposition.
It's also an opportunity, through far from certain that was
far from certain, for more secure and prospers in middle least,
(44:09):
where our friends are safe, our enemies are contained. And
it would be a waste of this historic opportunity if
one tyrant were top of them and only to see
a new one rise up in his place.
Speaker 2 (44:22):
Have we learned nothing? Are you seriously?
Speaker 1 (44:24):
Have we learned nothing when we helped remove has Remember
that was Obama who did that. When we supported a
so called Arab spring and we helped remove Hasney Mubarik
in Egypt, remember him, the longtime strong man. What did
the Egyptians get? They got the Muslim brotherhood. They were
worse than Mubarik in every way, they were worse. We
(44:47):
removed Kadafi, what did we get?
Speaker 2 (44:49):
Literally?
Speaker 1 (44:50):
Al Qaeda worse? We removed Saddam? What did we get worse?
That's when I disappeared? Like many times? Do we have
to keep doing this over and over and over again?
So now we've removed a sad An historic opportunity, which
(45:10):
be a shame if we wasted it. Well, why don't
you look at the thug that you just helped put
in power, al Jolani. Look at what he did in
Syria many years now. You know parts of Syria have
always been run by al Qaeda in his group. Look
at what he does. He imposes Sharia law. Check, he
(45:34):
denies women fundamental rights. Check, he cleanses and massacres every Christian,
every Alloyite, every Azd every non Sunni minority.
Speaker 2 (45:48):
Check.
Speaker 1 (45:49):
In fact, he enters Damascus. This was on the weekend. Okay,
al Jolani, the al Qaeda leader, the one that just
now is ruling the country. He goes to an eighth
century mosque, one of the oldest mosques in Syria, and
surrounded by his Jihotist thugs, terrorists with their kalishnikov shooting
(46:11):
in the air, and they're shooting in the air, and
they're shooting in the air. And he turns around and
he says, we have now won a great victory for
Islam quote unquote for the Muslim nation, and Syria will
now become a true Muslim nation under Islamic law and
(46:36):
Sharia law. So what do you think you think what
this is gonna be? I don't know, Sweden, Sweden on
the Mediterranean, this is Oh yeah, he's going to be
very tolerant, Oh yeah, very diverse, Oh yeah, very oh yeah, no, no, hey, hey,
he's going to be respectful of every minority religious f
(47:00):
in the group. Oh yeah, sure, that's exactly what the
talaman said when they rolled into cable And look at
the place. Now it's an Islamist hell hole. Six one seven,
two six six sixty eight sixty eight is the number
Vince in Germany. Thanks for holding Vince, and welcome.
Speaker 6 (47:25):
Morning, Jeff Vince.
Speaker 5 (47:27):
So, so the saying goes, screw me once, shame on you.
Screw me twice, shame on me. And if the American
people buy this BS, we deserve everything we get.
Speaker 6 (47:43):
I mean, it's plainly obvious that they are trying to
rip the lid off the world before Trump takes office.
Speaker 5 (47:50):
So he's just left.
Speaker 6 (47:52):
With an excrement sandwich and we'll all have to take
a bite. But what I want to say to you is,
although this is concerning and it came out of nowhere,
it actually didn't come out of nowhere because if you
pay attention, all of this stuff has just been grewing.
But what's most concerning is what's going on in Romania,
(48:14):
where they basically overturned a legitimate election because they said
it was Russia. What they're trying to do is to
go the Russians into attacking Romania, which is a NATO country.
Speaker 1 (48:32):
What say you, yeah, look, I mean it's Romania, it's Georgia.
You can see the globalists are pressing on every single
front and they're very worried. You can see they're very
worried about Trump coming to power. They're worried that their
grip on power is now slowly slipping away, and they
(48:56):
want they want to push Russia back as much as possible.
But you know, to be brutally honest, though, Vince, Look,
you know, look, I'm an American, Okay, to me, the
only interests I care about is the American interest, period
full stop. But I got to say, the fall of
Assad is no question a real body blow to Putin.
(49:17):
He puts so much of his regimes prestige behind propping
up Asad. A lot of Russians were sent into Syria,
many of them came home in body bags. And Putin
did it, I understand it from his point of view,
to defend you know, the Russian They got a key
naval base there, a key air base there, a hot
(49:38):
warm water port on the Mediterranean, very important Russian strategic
interests involved. And they don't want the Islamists taking over
that country because it's gonna hurt Russia. So that's why
they kept propping up Asad. But you know, you put
such an investment in the guy and then when he's
on the ropes and the rebels are launching this massive,
(50:02):
you know, blitzkrieg, and he goes and calls up Putin.
Putin says, I've got nothing to give you because everything
I have is in Ukraine. That shows that the war
has taken a toll on Russia and the Russians are
bogged down as well. And in fact, Trump made that point,
and I thought it was a very perceptive point. He goes, Look,
(50:23):
I met with Zelenski in France at the reopening of
the Notre Dame Cathedral and he said, look, the fall
of Syria or the fall of Asad, shows that Putin
is in a much weaker position. Zelensky has now told
Trump that the Ukrainians are exhausted, that they want a
(50:44):
peace steal. So Trump is now urging Putin, saying, hey, look,
you're taking massive casualties. You just lost Syria. It could
be much worse for you if this continues.
