Speaker 1 (00:00):
Good morning, Kooner country. Okay, my friends, it is this
statement heard around the world. I'm sure most of you
already know about it. It has exploded. I don't even
think that's a fair way to say it. It has
erupted all over social media. It is the lead story

(00:20):
in every newspaper on the entire planet. President Trump, yesterday,
meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netan Yahoo at a
press conference, stunned the room, stunned Congress, stunned the country,
and literally stunned the entire world. He now said, with

(00:42):
Netan Yahoo looking on, that the United States should take
over the Gaza Strip.

Speaker 2 (00:49):
Yes, Gaza, that Gaza.

Speaker 1 (00:52):
President Trump came out and said there may be an
intermediate stage where other countries will come in and start
the economic rebuilding of Gaza and try to get humanitarian
aid in. But he said, the ultimate solution and he
is willing to follow through on this and in some

(01:12):
way stake his presidency is for the United States, forget Greenland,
forget the Panama Canal, the Gaza Strip. He wants America
to acquire the Gaza Strip, to turn it into an
American protectorate and an American territory. And what he also

(01:33):
wants to do is there's about two million Gazin Palestinians
who live on the Gaza Strip, and he says it
is time for them to be resettled, transferred, moved either
to Egypt, Jordan, or other countries in the Middle East.
He says that Gaza now is unrebuildable with the Palestinians

(01:56):
having to live there, it is a demolition site, or
as he put it, an absolute hell whole. And so
if you want to end the war between the Israelis
and the Palestinians, if you want an ultimate solution to
the Palestinian Israeli conflict, resettle the Palestinians to countries across

(02:18):
the Middle East, maybe even some uninhabited islands in Indonesia,
which is a Muslim country, and the United States and
other wealthy countries will pay for the resettlement, will build,
as he put it, beautiful homes, beautiful communities. They will
live in peace, harmony, and tranquility. But most, if not all,

(02:42):
will be taken out of the Gaza Strip. It will
run be run under American direction, American control, ultimately American ownership,
and he says that we can turn it into the
riv era of the Middle East, in which people from
all of the world, not just Israelis, not just Arabs,

(03:03):
but from all over the world can come onto the
Gaza Strip and enjoy the beautiful Mediterranean Sea, the beach.
He says, there will be hotels, restaurants, cafes. It is
a developer's dream. As he put it, the potential in
Gaza is unlimited. It could truly become the Riviera, the

(03:27):
French Riviera of the Mediterranean.

Speaker 2 (03:30):
Listen now to Donald Trump.

Speaker 1 (03:33):
Stun shock the entire country, the entire press corps, and
the entire world.

Speaker 2 (03:40):
Roll cut three, Mike.

Speaker 3 (03:45):
The US will take over the Gaza Strip and we
will do a job with it too well. Own it
and be responsible for dismantling all of the dangerous unexploded
bombs and other weapons on the site. Level the sight,
and get rid of the destroyed buildings. Level it out,
create an economic development that will supply unlimited numbers of

(04:07):
jobs and housing for the people of the area. Do
a real job to something different. Just can't go back.
If you go back, it's going to end up the
same way it has for one hundred years.

Speaker 1 (04:21):
So basically, he says, there's no way back. He wants
to go forward. And the only way forward is not
for Israel to take over Gaza or all of Gaza
or parts of Gaza, or the Yun or a Middle
East peacekeeping force. It is for ultimately we Uncle Sam
the United States. Now Trump said, I'm not going to

(04:42):
do this all alone. I want other wealthy countries to
join us, the UN, other humanitarian organizations, and we want
to do this peacefully, humanly.

Speaker 2 (04:54):
We want to.

Speaker 1 (04:54):
Resettle, as I said, two million or if not two
one point seven one point eight million in most of
the gods in Palestinian population. And we're going to now
demand that other countries nearby countries like Egypt, like Jordan,
other countries, you take in the Palestinians and we will

(05:14):
make sure that they will have economic development, they will
have wonderful neighborhoods, they'll be living in beautiful housing with
beautiful schools that they will live in prosperity and dignity.

Speaker 2 (05:26):
Again, roll cut three a Mike.

Speaker 3 (05:33):
We should go to other countries of interest with humanitarian hearts,
and there are many of them that want to do
this and build various domains that will ultimately be occupied
by the one point eight million Palestinians living in Gaza,
ending the death and destruction and frankly bad luck. This

(05:53):
could be paid for by neighboring countries of great wealth.
It could be one, two, three, four, fives, in a twelve,
It could be numerous sites, or it could be one
large site. But the people will be able to live
in comfort and peace, and we'll get to we'll make
sure something really spectacular is done. They're going to have peace.

(06:15):
They're not going to be shot at and killed and
destroyed like this civilization of wonderful people has had to endure.

Speaker 1 (06:26):
So basically what he's saying is America will take care
of the Gaza problem, obviously leading a multinational coalition. Okay,
that's what he's at heart, That's what he's saying. Now,
let me just say this. If you follow me on X,
you know my response to this. I am an America firster,
I'm an American nationalist, I am an American patriot. There

(06:47):
is no national interest in the United States, for God's sake,
for us now to occupy and turn Gaza into an
American territory or an American protectorate.

Speaker 2 (06:59):
Now.

Speaker 1 (06:59):
To be fair to President Trump, he's a developer. He's
a visionary, he's a dreamer. I get it, and he's right.
Under proper management, Yes, Gods, the strip could definitely become
de riviera of the Middle East, There's no doubt. But
is that our job, that's the question. Is that our job?

(07:20):
Is that our role? Is that our purpose? Is that
our responsibility? Now, to be fair, what I'm hoping, what
I'm praying is that this is classic Trump whereby he's trolling.
And I don't mean this in a critical or negative way.
Art of the deal use a ton of leverage there.

(07:40):
He was with bb Net. Niyahu Bib of course, said
he loved the idea that this would change history. This
is one of the most interesting proposals he's ever heard
in his entire life.

Speaker 2 (07:51):
Well, of course, because.

Speaker 1 (07:53):
Israel now offloads and outsources there, God's a problem to us.
So if I'm an Israeli, of course I love this proposal.
The Israelis can walk their hands of the whole thing
and say, the Americans will take care of everything. The
Americans will rebuild, they'll pick up the tab They're gonna
have to resettle the Palestinians, they're gonna have to deal
with the terrorism and the violence that's gonna come from this.

(08:15):
So yeah, of course, if I'm BBI love this, but
I'm looking at it from our interest. Now, what I'm hoping,
I'm praying is that this is Trump now a shot
across the bow to Egypt, to Jordan, to Saudi Arabia
to Iran, saying hey, look, because the Arabs are going nuts.

(08:38):
I'm telling you right now the Middle East is they
are going insane. I mean, they're going absolutely. You got
to see the reaction. They're going apoplectic. America now establish
a permanent military presence, a permanent protectorate in the heart
of the Middle East. So maybe that's Trump's way of saying, hey,

(09:01):
if you don't want us to come in here and
take Gaza over, you guys better put maximum pressure on
Hamas and say sign a deal with Israel. Either you know,
you may not like Israel, but you're gonna hate us
running Gaza ten times more. So, if you guys know
what's good for you, If you don't want Big Donald
and Big Daddy to come in here and take over Gaza,

(09:24):
then you guys better cut a deal and force the
Palestinians to a negotiating table. Now I'm hoping it was
a good cop, bad cop routine. There's Trump dropping the hammer.

Speaker 2 (09:35):
Bb oh.

Speaker 1 (09:36):
I like this Donald very interesting, could change history, could
be very transformational.

Speaker 2 (09:41):
So I'm hoping that's what it is.

Speaker 1 (09:44):
But let's just assume, okay, because we have to assume
for the sake of argument, that Trump is dead serious
and that he's willing to follow through and he's willing
to stake his entire presidency on it.

Speaker 2 (09:57):
I think it's a big mistake. I'm sorry. I think
this is a huge mistake.

Speaker 1 (10:01):
And you know how much I love the guy, and
you know how much I agree with him on so
many things. We did not elect him to get us
entangled in the squabbles and quarrels and internal affairs of
the Middle East. As I said on X, we get
involved in Gaza, we take over Gaza. We are gonna

(10:23):
buy terrorism for a thousand years. We're gonna invite Islamic
terrorists not just to attack our interests in Gaza should
we take it over, but they're gonna hit our embassies,
they're gonna hit our military bases around the world. And
my god, you think nine to eleven was bad, They're
gonna come after us in our homeland again and again

(10:44):
and again. Donald Trump promised to get us out of
the Middle East. This proposal gets us not just back in,
but into the heart of the quagmire, with us paying
for everything. Really, it has sent shock waves across the country,
across the world, across the Middle East. Let me play

(11:06):
the cut one more time, and then I want to
take as many calls as possible. Listen now to President Trump.
He met with BB Netanyahu yesterday behind closed doors, then
they met with the media, and then at a press conference,
President Trump said, you know, Gaza now is a pile
of rubble. Palestinians are returning to nothing. Everything has been

(11:28):
essentially destroyed in this war between Hamas and Israel, which
Israel has clearly won, and God blessed them for winning
that war. But now he says, I see no future
for the Palestinians in Gaza. It is time for the
United States to step in and take over long term
control of the entire Gaza Strip, or, as many of

(11:49):
Trump's supporters are saying, it'll be renamed Magastrip, not Gaza Strip,
Maga Strip, and turn Gaza into an American protectorate and
an American territory and essentially transfer, resettle, whatever term you
want to use, most of the Palestinians out of Gaza

(12:11):
and have them relocated to eight, ten, twelve different countries.
He wants Jordan to chip in, Egypt to chip in, Cutter,
United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Indonesia, and says the
United States and other wealthy countries will pay for the
transfer and will pay for them living in nice homes,

(12:34):
nice communities, going to nice schools. In other words, get
the Palestinians out of Gaza and turn it into the
riviera of the Middle East with American sovereignty and under
American management and American control. So I want to ask
all of you, should the United States acquire the Gaza strip?

(13:00):
Do you support this proposal by Trump? And let me
add double barrel question. Many people think he's playing three
dimensional chess. He's trolling, He's got a larger plan. He's
just using this as leverage to force other nations to
pony up the economic reconstruction of Gaza and to force

(13:23):
Hamas and the Palestinians to the table to sign a
negotiated piece. In other words, you don't like Israel in
the Middle East. You're gonna hate to have the Great
Satan in the Middle East.

Speaker 2 (13:34):
So is Trump.

Speaker 1 (13:36):
Serious or do you think he's just playing people and
putting a lot of pressure behind the scenes with this
as the ultimate threat and as the ultimate leverage. Six
one seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight. I
want to play the cut one more time. This is
Trump with BB standing maybe three feet away from him.

(13:58):
Roll cut three.

Speaker 3 (14:02):
The US will take over the Gaza Strip and we
will do a job with it to We'll own it
and be responsible for dismantling all of the dangerous unexploded
bombs and other weapons on the site. Level the site
and get rid of the destroyed buildings. Level it out,
create an economic development that will supply unlimited numbers of

(14:24):
jobs and housing for the people of the area. Do
a real job to something different.

Speaker 2 (14:31):
Just can't go back.

Speaker 3 (14:32):
If you go back, it's going to end up the
same way it has for one hundred years.

Speaker 1 (14:37):
So let me ask you, should the United States now
acquire the Gaza Strip A and B. Do you think
Trump is sirius or do you think this is just
part of a larger strategy to get other regional powers
to force the Palestinians to a negotiated piece deal six

(14:58):
one seven six sixty eight sixty eight. Let's start with
Anthony in Belmont. Thanks for holding Anthony and welcome.

Speaker 4 (15:09):
And he is playing three dimensional chess.

Speaker 5 (15:12):
Uh.

Speaker 4 (15:12):
You know it was ironic yesterday the media refused to
ask him. They were all they're all in a tiff.
They should have said, mister president, how does this your
plan whatever you're coming across, differ from what the Biden
administration often Hamas is part of ceasefire plan. On January twelfth,
Anthony Blincoln gave a speech and said, we specifically have

(15:34):
a plan. It's been handed over to the Trump administration,
and we see no reason why they won't follow it.
Now Trump is delivering at the plan differently because in
the in the in the waning moments of the Biden administration,
this is a fact and all policy wants to know this.

Speaker 5 (15:50):
And if the.

Speaker 4 (15:50):
Media is not telling, well, you know what, they're fomenting
hate amongst you know, the people. But a plan was
given and Hamas signed on it. The only thing Hamas
didn't want was they were adamant Israel can't be the
security force. It never said that the United States can't
be the security force, or that you can't have troops
on the ground. And here's the media saying, well, you

(16:11):
know what happens when we have troops on the ground.
There's the anti American sentiment, which my response was, you
had no problem when President Biden sent the Army seven
Infantry for Great Brigade or a unit out of California
to be troops on the ground to build them up.

Speaker 5 (16:24):
There.

Speaker 4 (16:25):
Those are people on the ground doing humanitarian things. Trump
is playing chess with them. This plan was already put forward.
They just did come up with a ceasefire, and he's
just delivering it differently. They tried to bribe Egypt the
Biden administration on the last das to police take them
and and Biden's planned Jeff It said, if blinket said,
there will be displaced from other people. Although it should

(16:47):
not be forced. Trump's not forcing the people to go.
He said they should go because there is nothing to
go back to it.

Speaker 1 (16:54):
You're right, it's a proposal. You're right, it's a recommendation.
It's a proposal. You know, he's not saying, hey, I'm
going to call in the eighty second Airborne. We're going
to invade Gaza, you know, and that's it, and we're
going to force the Palestinians out. So yeah, he's basically yeah,
you're right, Sandy. Trump is basically saying, look, most of
the Palestinians are gonna want to go because we're going

(17:16):
to give him a deal they can't reviews. We're going
to relocate them in Muslim countries with Muslim cultures, and
we're going to give them nice housing and nice schools
and nice neighborhoods and nice communities and good jobs, and
in other words, they'll be able to finally have a life.
They haven't had a life for one hundred years. So
he's saying, if you want a better alternative, if you
don't want, you know, instead of living like this, this constant,

(17:39):
protracted battle between the Palestinians and Israel, if you don't
want to live in a hell hole and a you know,
pile of rubble every day, then I'm offering you a
better way. So you're completely right, Anthony, No, my question, Anthony,
I'm just curious. Let's say Trump is serious just for
the sake of argument, and he says, no, I want

(18:01):
I want to make it like Greenland or the Panama
Canal or whatever I want it to be an American
territory and American protectorate.

Speaker 2 (18:08):
Would you support that? Anthony?

Speaker 6 (18:10):
Absolutely not.

Speaker 4 (18:12):
And he knows that, he knows the people on his
side who agree with him or against it, and he's huge,
and he's gonna say, well, this is what your stat
see it.

Speaker 1 (18:20):
Okay, I got you, I got you, Anthony six one
seven two six, six, sixty eight sixty eight. Okay, it's
front page every newspaper, it's leading every cable news network,
not just here but everywhere all over the planet. I
don't care Asia, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Latin America.
Trump yesterday proposed floated in an idea that maybe it's

(18:45):
time for the United States to acquire the Gaza Strip
long term control over Gaza. Obviously, other countries would help
us in the process of acquiring it, but he said, ultimately,
if the Palestinians don't want to leave, and the other
countries in the region don't want to take them, then

(19:05):
we're going to have no choice but to pay for
the Palestinians to be resettled, to then clear out all
the debris, all the explosives, all the tunnels and resettle
the Palestinians, and then we'll invite people from all over
the world to come as we build hotel after hotel

(19:26):
after a hotel, and to turn it into an American territory,
the riviera of the Middle East. Listen now to President
Trump saying, look, the only reason why the Palestinians are
going back is because they have nowhere else to go.
Roll cut three B Mike.

Speaker 3 (19:50):
The only reason the Palestinians want to go back to
Gaza is they have no alternative. It's right now a
demolition site. This is just a militia side. Virtually every
building is down. They're living under fallen concrete. That's very
dangerous and very precarious. They instead can occupy all of

(20:12):
a beautiful area with homes and safety, and they can
live out their lives in peace and harmony instead of
having to go back and do it again.

Speaker 1 (20:21):
Now and in particular, let me just play one more cut,
and I want to go right back to the phone lines.
He really remember, Jordan neighbors the West Bank. Many Palestinians
live in Jordan. Many Palestinians there's refugee camps in Egypt.
And we give both countries a lot of foreign eight
four and eight has been obviously in the news. We
talked about it yesterday. So Trump is saying, look, we

(20:44):
can exert a lot of pressure on Jordan and Egypt.
You may not want them, but we're going to force
you to take them, and we'll pay for them to
live in nice communities, in nice development areas, and we'll
give them a chance at a real life. Listen now
to Trump saying, some countries are going to have to

(21:04):
up their game and start taking in these Palestinians who
clearly now are homeless, stateless, and on their own roll.
Cut five, Mike, Yeah.

Speaker 3 (21:18):
I would like to see Jordan. I'd like to see
Egypt take some Look, the Gaza thing has not worked.

Speaker 2 (21:25):
It's never worked.

Speaker 3 (21:27):
And I feel very differently about Gaza than a lot
of people. I think they should get a good, fresh,
beautiful piece of land and we get some people to
put up the money to build it and make it nice,
and make it habitable and enjoyable and make it a home.

Speaker 1 (21:46):
So now here's I think where Trump this may be
his blind spot, and I'm not saying this is a
criticism of him. I think it's a criticism of the
West in general. The assumption among Westerners. It's not just Trump,
is that.

Speaker 2 (22:01):
Well.

Speaker 1 (22:02):
The Palestinians are fundamentally rational. The Palestinians want what we want,
a good life, nice standard of living, the rule of law,
basic freedoms and liberties. So yeah, you offer them a
much nicer place to live, they'll make a deal.

Speaker 2 (22:21):
No, no, no, no.

Speaker 1 (22:23):
The Palestinians are not Western. That's I think where this is.
I think where the rubber is going to hit the road.
The Palestinians see Gaza as their land, they see the
West Bank as their land. They see Israel as their land.
And they would rather live in absolute dirt poverty, in

(22:46):
the rubble. They would literally love to They'd love to
live in abject misery, but at least be on their
land and continue this endless war in Jiha against They
hated Jews, and they do hate the Jews. They really
hate the Jews. They pathologically hate the Jews. Then live

(23:10):
in prosperity, say in Indonesia, on some beautiful island off
the Pacific Ocean, or you know, in a nice condo
in Egypt, or in Saudi Arabia, or in cutter or
in Jordan. They're not interested in a better life. What
they want is to exterminate and annihilate the Jews. They

(23:34):
don't want peace, they don't want a better life. And
so when that reality rears its ugly head and I
think it's inevitable, what do we do?

Speaker 5 (23:44):
Then?

Speaker 1 (23:46):
Now, let me just say one other thing very quick,
and then I want to go to the phone lines.
A couple lines are open if you want to jump on.
Six one seven two six, six sixty eight sixty eight
is the number to me. This is how I read
the situation. You may agree, you may disagree. Look, we
just sent Israel a one billion dollar arms package. Israel

(24:07):
is now armed to the teeth. Israel now has won
the war essentially in Gaza. They've broken the back of Hamas.
They have now decapitated has bellah Aran, their arch enemy
now is on the ropes. Why are we getting involved
the United States of America at this point when the

(24:29):
war is essentially all but one, and now we're going
to start getting into the refugee resettlement business. We're gonna
start after all of the scandals yesterday. Have foreign aid
and how much of it is being corrupt? You know,
it's corrupt, it's waste, it's fraud, its abuse setting. Now
we're going to be pumping tens and tens and tens

(24:50):
of billions of dollars to resettle Palestinians in places all
over the world and all over the Middle East. Many
of them don't want to go, like I'm sorry, I'm
looking at this, and I'm like, look, with all due respect,
and I'm very pro Israel, as you know, I backed
him in this war with Hamas all the way. But

(25:11):
Gaza is there, it's their problem. Well, the West Bank
is their problem. And I don't mean this in a
in a in a contemptuous way. I mean, look, I'm sorry,
that's that's their neighborhood, that's their neck of the woods.
Let Israel deal with Gaza and the Palestinians. We've got
more than enough on our plate. And so that's why

(25:34):
when I saw that yesterday. Now again he may be
playing three dimensional chess. I hope he is, and I
hope he's pushing buttons to get regional players in regional
countries to step up and do their part and force
Hamas out and you know, try to rebuild Gaza. I hope, Okay,
I hope, But I'm just telling you, I'm just giving
you my honest take on this. We need Gaza like

(25:55):
we need a hole in the head. We need to
get involved in the Middle East like we need a
hole in the head. Iraq consumed and destroyed George W.
Bush's presidency, Afghanistan destroyed and consumed Joe Biden's presidency, Syria
and Libya and Isis consumed and in many ways destroyed

(26:19):
Barack Obama's presidency. Why are we now getting involved in
this quagmire in the Middle East? And you know, Trump
did not campaign on We're going to turn Gaza into
the Maga Strip. He did not campaign on this. So
we don't even have Tulca Gabbard confirmed. She got through

(26:41):
the committee yesterday.

Speaker 2 (26:42):
Great. We don't have RFK confirmed. He got through the committee. Great.

Speaker 1 (26:46):
But still we've got key nominees who still haven't even
been confirmed, were in the process early stages of deporting
millions and millions of criminal, illegal aliens. We've got a
looming trade war with Cannon in Mexico. We've got a
trade war now with China. We've got an inflation crisis
that Trump needs to bring the heel. But I could

(27:08):
go on and on and on. We've got a lot
of problems here at home. Now, you know my answer
to BB is this, Hey, look, you're a good ally
of ours, you're a staunch ally of ours. We just
sent you another billion dollars. You do what you want
with Hamas, obliterate them, do what you gotta do. And

(27:31):
if there's gonna be a peacekeeping force, let the UN
come in, Let the UN rebuild Gaza, let the other
countries pony up, let them pay, let them pick up
the tab because in the end, I'm telling you, we're
gonna end up paying, and it's gonna be our boys
and our girls and our troops that are going to
be on the ground. So my advice to President Trump,

(27:55):
if you're serious about this, if this is not you know,
three D checks, which I hope it is, I want
you to know the coooner Man's a no.

Speaker 2 (28:04):
The coooner man is a no.

Speaker 1 (28:08):
Now I want to know from you you agree, disagree?
Six one seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight.
I'm just speaking from the heart, my friends. Larry in Lemonster,
thanks for holding Larry, and welcome.

Speaker 7 (28:23):
Good morning, Jeff.

Speaker 8 (28:24):
How are you doing in this bipolar weather?

Speaker 5 (28:27):
Wre have it?

Speaker 1 (28:30):
What do you what do you make of this, Larry,
should guysa become the fifty first state?

Speaker 7 (28:37):
No, I'm torn. I don't know if he's serious or
if he's trolling.

Speaker 8 (28:43):
I do I was.

Speaker 7 (28:44):
When I was listening to I was having flashbacks of
that super duper Luxury whatever package video he sent to
the Rocketman.

Speaker 2 (28:55):
Yeah yeah, Kim John, Yeah yeah.

Speaker 7 (28:56):
Say hey, if you calm down, we can make you know,
Korea look like this North Korea. You know, we knew
we would never go for it, but it was just
like an enticement, you know, the carrot instead of the stick.
I'm leaning more towards what you're thinking of.

Speaker 8 (29:13):
This is good.

Speaker 7 (29:14):
This obviously has caused panic in the Middle East because
he's got a habit of being serious and doing what
he says, and that might put them on notice.

Speaker 2 (29:29):
Oh, Larry, I agree. I think.

Speaker 1 (29:30):
Look, I'm hoping, and I think that's ultimately I think
that's what he's doing. Look, you got to read the
reaction in the Middle East. I mean, Larry, when I
say they're losing their minds, they're losing their minds. So
they're like now telling the Palestinians sign anything, just sign,
just sign, get the un sign sign sign six one
seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight is the number.

Speaker 2 (29:53):
Okay, let me ask you. It is the big question.

Speaker 1 (29:57):
President Trump yesterday has now floated the idea proposing that
the United States take over Gaza, and he says, even
if need be, we'll use American troops to clean out
the tunnels, clean out the debris, clean out the explosives,
and help completely rebuild and reconstruct Gaza as we transfer

(30:21):
and resettle nearly two million Palestinians to other countries around
the region and around the world. Agree disagree, Good idea,
bad idea? Six one seven two six six sixty eight
sixty eight is the number. Okay, listen now to Trump.
Very quickly, he's asked by a reporter, well, how do

(30:45):
you know the Palestinians would take your offer?

Speaker 2 (30:48):
You, in other words, that.

Speaker 1 (30:49):
They'd go to Egypt, or they'd go to Jordan, or
they'd go to Indonesia, or they'd go wherever.

Speaker 2 (30:54):
Listen to Trump's response roll cut five A mike.

Speaker 3 (31:03):
Say, they don't want to I don't know how they
could want to stay. It's it's it's a demolition site.
It's a pure demolition site. If we could find the
right piece of land, or numerous pieces of land and
build them some really nice places. There's plenty of money
in the area, that's for sure. I think that would
be a lot better than going back to Khaza, which

(31:26):
has had just decades and decades of death, where most
pieces of land be well. They could be in Jordam,
and they could be in Egypt, they could be in
other places. You could have more than two, more than one,
but you could have more than two, and you'd have
people living in a place that could be very beautiful,
it's safe and nice. Gaza has been a disaster.

Speaker 1 (31:50):
So and then they're pressed, we'll I go, well, I
just want more cut Then the reporters say, well, okay,
but let's say Jordan and Egypt don't want them. I
mean you're assuming, okay, your assumption is eight if the
Palestinians want to leave, and you're saying, well, you know what,
why wouldn't they want to leave? It's so much better elsewhere.
Who wants to live in Gaza? That's a whole it's
a hell hole. But they're saying, well, but also what

(32:12):
if Jordan says no, I mean, the Jordanians don't want
any more Palestinians Egypt doesn't want anymore. Frankly, nobody wants
the Palestinians, if you want to be brutally honest, because
everywhere they go.

Speaker 2 (32:23):
They cause trouble. That's just a fact.

Speaker 1 (32:26):
So they're you know, they're asking. But what if Jordan
and Egypt and other countries say yet, no no deal,
no dice. Listen to Trump's response, roll cut six, Mike.

Speaker 7 (32:40):
If not jin Egypt, what other countries you think might
accept Holsinians from Gaza.

Speaker 3 (32:45):
Well, I think Jordan and Egypt will. I know they've
spoken about it with you and they say they're not
going to accept. I say they will, But I think
other countries will accept. Also, I think that Gaza maybe
is a demolition side right now. If you look at guys,
it's all I mean, it's hardly a building standing and
the ones that are are going to collapse. You can't

(33:05):
live in Gaza right now. And I think we need
another location. I think it should be a location that's
going to make people happy. You look over the decades,
it's all death in Gaza. This has been happening for years.
It's all death. If we can get a beautiful area
to resettle people permanently in nice homes and where they
can be happy and not be shot, not be killed,

(33:27):
not be knife to death like what's happening in Gaza.

Speaker 1 (33:32):
So do you support President Trump his proposal, his recommendation,
and do you think the United States now should take
control over Gaza? Six seven two six six sixty eight
sixty eight Andy in Milford. Thanks for holding Andy and welcome.

Speaker 6 (33:52):
Hey, Jeff, how you doing.

Speaker 8 (33:54):
Thank you for taking my call.

Speaker 2 (33:56):
My pleasure.

Speaker 5 (33:56):
Andy.

Speaker 6 (33:58):
Yes, we the last thing we need in the United
States is for yet another American presidency to be consumed
with yet another nation building adventure in the Middle East.
I'm a big, fat no on this. This is what
I'd like to see, Jeff. I would like to see

(34:20):
President Trump go back to what he did in his
first administration, and that is isolate Iran economically. When he
isolated Iran economically in his first administration, guess what, all
the terrorism and Gaza dried up, Hamas and all of

(34:41):
them were broke. They couldn't do anything. What I want
to see is I want to see President Trump bring
that back, only this time put it on steroids, and
absolutely just strangle Iran in every way economically.

Speaker 8 (34:57):
What that'll do is.

Speaker 6 (34:59):
That will enable them green movement in Iran to finally
get rid of that is Lomo fascist regime over there,
which has been the source of all of this. And
the average Iranian on the street is sick of how
they're forced to have to live with that Aslamo fascist regime.

(35:20):
And I would love for an Iranian American somewhere out
there in Kooner Country to call in and comment on
this as well.

Speaker 1 (35:30):
Oh Andy, you're on fire. I'm telling you, brilliant, brilliant, brilliant.
I could not agree with you more.

Speaker 2 (35:37):
And we do have.

Speaker 1 (35:38):
By the way, Iranian Americans who listen to this show,
a lot of them for some reason.

Speaker 2 (35:41):
I don't know why. It's fine.

Speaker 1 (35:42):
I'm just noticing a lot of them are out in California, Oa,
I got. I don't know they like the weather or
whatever reminds them of their home country, but a lot
of them are out in California.

Speaker 2 (35:51):
They hate the Iatolas. Oh my god, do they hate
the Iatolas.

Speaker 1 (35:55):
And they're the ones who keep emailing me saying, Jeff,
there is a vibrant pro democracy green movement. The overwhelming
majority of the Iranian people hate this is Lamo Nazi
is Lamo fascist regime. Trump was brilliant when he puts
so much diplomatic pressure and economic isolation, starving the regime
of money, of oil, imposing crippling sanctions, and it starved

(36:20):
all of Iran's proxies, all of their terrorist proxies. No, look, Andy,
I'm with you. Here's what I thought. Honestly, I thought
Trump was gonna say this that. It kind of took
me back when he said about you know, we're gonna
take over Gaza because I agree with you, we don't
need more nation building. Oh my god, we don't need
more nation building. I thought he was gonna come out

(36:41):
and call the Palestinians bluff.

Speaker 2 (36:43):
I thought he was.

Speaker 1 (36:44):
Gonna come out and say, we want the UN to
come in, Okay, help rebuild, clean up all the debris,
but we want elections, free, fair, elections monitored by the UN,
monitored by the world with you know, election monitors. Will
the Palestinians reelect Tumas? If the Palestinians reelect Thmas, Well

(37:08):
there's your answer. I mean, I remember, look, I think
if you're a rational Palestinian, and there's not many to
be frank, but if you're a rational Palestinian, boy, does
October seventh look like a bad idea?

Speaker 2 (37:21):
Now?

Speaker 5 (37:21):
Huh?

Speaker 1 (37:22):
Like, Okay, you did kill Jews and it was a
horrific attack, the worst since the Holocaust. But my god,
you lost practically everything. Your society has been flattened. You've
lost what is it, tens of thousands of people. Hamas
has been utterly destroyed and dismantled. Iran is now a
second rate power because they've been so degraded by Israel.

(37:46):
You've got Hezbollah now is finished in Lebanon. I mean,
so you know, I mean, Trump is right. It's it's
a it's it's a it's it's it's a massive piece
of rubble, really guzz and now is a massive demolition.
It's just rubble. It's a demolition. It's a healthscape, that's
what it is. It's a massive urban healthscape. So let's

(38:06):
see now how the Palestinians vote. You have a chance
to elect a peace loving government that will accept the
existence of Israel, and you guys can create the riviera
on the Middle East.

Speaker 2 (38:20):
Nobody's stopping you.

Speaker 1 (38:22):
The UN is gonna pour billions of dollars, the UN's
gonna put in their peacekeeping troops. So you guys can
have a nice, functioning, normal, prosperous country and society. Now
to me, that's how you call the Palestinians bluff. Now
we're putting ourselves at the front of the line again.

(38:44):
We're now you see, basically Israel is saying, okay, you guys,
take it over. We're done, We're washed here, We're done
with Gaza. We beat a moss, we flat in the place,
we destroyed our enemy. And okay, now you the Americans,
you take over everything. You basically clean up the mess.

(39:05):
And I'm like, why we got enough problems of our own.
I mean, my god, no, you you clean up the mess,
you know. I mean, I'm not saying this in a
negative way. You know how much I love Israel, but
I mean, hey, guys, it's your backyard. I don't know
what to tell you. We gotta deal with Canada, we
gotta deal with Mexico, we gotta deal with China, we
gotta deal we got problems up the wazoo. So guys,

(39:29):
I mean, you've won now, you know, to the victor, gold,
to spoils. So take care of Gaza. You deal with
it however you feel best. So that would be my
advice to the Israelis. But I would have elections, and
I'm telling you the Palestinians, even after this disaster, Andy
would vote for Hamas again.

Speaker 2 (39:54):
And that.

Speaker 1 (39:55):
And then once you see that, you're like, they're not
interested in cafes and hotels and restaurants and strip malls
and beaches and resorts the way Donald Trump is because
he's a civilized man, the way you are, the way
I am, the way we are in the West. No,

(40:16):
I'm telling you.

Speaker 2 (40:16):
They want jayhead jay haad jahead. That's what they want.

Speaker 5 (40:20):
You know.

Speaker 1 (40:21):
As they say in the Palestinian territories, the only good
Jew is a dead Jew. So for them, they would
rather have an intafada for a thousand years then turn
Gaza into the Riviera of the Mediterranean.

Speaker 2 (40:37):
Final word to you, Andy, am I wrong?

Speaker 6 (40:41):
You are a thousand percent correct, chef. And my message
to King Trump is we have a golden opportunity to
solve this thing economically and not pinetically, and that's the
route we need to take.

Speaker 1 (40:57):
Bing go just strangle the Iranian regigs. I'm so with you,
because they're ready now to fall. I'm so with you, Andy. Andy,
thank you very much for that call. Six one seven
two six six sixty eight sixty eight. Look, I'm just curious.
I mean, I'm just giving you my opinion. You may
disagree with me. I'm just curious. Does anybody I'd like
to give the person the floor, uh, take a call.

(41:20):
Does anybody like the idea of the United States taking
control of Gaza Because I know on social media a
lot of Trump supporters were saying, Hey, we're gonna, you know,
rename it the Maga Strip. And they've already got hotels,
they got Trump power, they've already got you know, Trump
resorts already, you know, with Ai or whatever, you know,

(41:42):
along the Gaza Strip and the Mediterranean Sea.

Speaker 2 (41:45):
So I'm just curious.

Speaker 1 (41:47):
Does anybody out there say, yeah, we should take it
over and rebuild it and resettle the Palestinians. In other words,
it's such a protracted problem. The only country that can
solve it is US, and now is the time to
do it. I think that's you know, that's the logic,
and that's the thinking. Do you agree? I'm just curious

(42:10):
six one seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight.
Arthur in Chestnut Hill, Thanks for holding Arthur, and welcome.

Speaker 5 (42:20):
Thanks Jeff so it would be insane. It would be
insane for us to get involved and put our people
doing anything in the in the in the Middle East
in a stable in one spot, because right from the beginning,
we've got a target on our back everywhere everywhere. When
we're out in the open like that, all we're going

(42:42):
to do is put a target on the back. The
first day that we're there, they will be planning how
to take hostages and and kill our people, which just
make it easier for bringing them Mayor. The only people
that belong in God's are the Israelis. The only place
that the Palestinians belonged is in Iran, because that's the

(43:03):
only one people that take them. The Jordanians already had
had enough of them and they're not going to go
back to them. And and Lebanon's had there full of them.
Sirih assassinated, He went down and murdered five thousand of them.
Nobody wants them. They were they were forced down that
the Israelis broke, and it was in a deal Land

(43:24):
for peace. He's talking about giving them a place like
chester Hill. Well, that's what the West Bank was, and
and that hasn't and that hasn't improved. You know, we
we we we shouldn't get involved though with Gaza, and
and and and we gave away Afghanistan, which was another
dumb foreign policy move. Uh. And we gave away the

(43:49):
Panama Canal. These are great blunders in American history because
Afghanistan was a place that we were keeping terrorists from
from from getting a place to where they can live.
And then we turned it back to the Taliban, and
we gave up our big base. But enough about that.
One more thing I wanted. But by the way, all

(44:11):
Palestinians a hamaz and we get enough guys is in
our own country, in California and Hawaii and all the
major cities thanks to people who destroyed our own cities.
So we got enough places we need to be built,
so we don't need another place.

Speaker 1 (44:28):
Is Arthur, I promised I won't cut you off. I'll
let you finish. But I just want to ask you this.
There is I've read this in multiple newspapers late last
night early this morning, that one of the ideas that's
being floated behind the scenes. Okay, it's just a proposal,
it's not carved in stone, but that there are uninhabited

(44:48):
islands in Indonesia, which, as you know, is way in
the Pacific, Okay, it's really far from the Middle East.
Indonesia is a Muslim country, one of the biggest in
the entire world. Indonesia has said for the right fee,
they would be willing to take in two million Palestinians,
just take them out of Gaza and if the U

(45:09):
n and with American leadership or whatever was to build
you know, cities and communities and homes and you know,
resettle them there, Indonesia would potentially be open to that deal.
Now it's just a proposal, it's blueprint, it's in the
early stages. But what do you think of that? Do
you think that's something that Trump should push, Do you

(45:31):
think that's something that should fly, or do you think
we should just stay out of it. Let Israel handle this.
We've got enough of our own problems.

Speaker 5 (45:41):
West can be involved behind the scenes, but I wouldn't
be out front with whatever's going on. And you know,
this is really Israel's problem, and you know we support Israel.
That would be the smart thing. We don't need to
be out front with this. I thought Trump is making
a big mistake by being a U You know, things
should be behind the scenes. That's and nobody wants the

(46:05):
Palestinians and they were cancer. There would be a lot
more peace in the Middle East if we didn't have
those terrorists, and and and and after what they did
in October seventeenth, October seventh, excuse me that that canceled
and that should have canceled them in the eyes of
the world. And and you know, and all these Palestinians today,

(46:26):
they've been all indoctrinated in the schools to teach how
to kill that and you know what, That's what Muslims
have been doing since the beginning of the histories, killing
Christians and Jews. Okay, that's what they're all about. And
you know, and and and that's history. That's not me
changing history. That's what history is. And it's just one

(46:47):
more thing that I've been dying to say for quite
a lotle, if if you'll indulge me, go ahead, yeah,
go ahead, Yeah. I am sick and tired of hearing
that that that that the January sixth, peaceful people that
came up there with flags walking peacefully turned around and

(47:08):
attacked gods. So you're gonna tell me the January sixth
people who were unarmed attacked the capitol gods who invited
them in? Okay, who had weapons? Okay, when is that
investigation going to be taken? Noother tampoint that should be
number one on the list, because outside of hearing that

(47:29):
those patriots and what happened to him afterwards, is it?
Is it black day and a disgrace upon America for
for them to turn around and get away with calling
those patriots criminals. It discussed me every time I hear what,
I want to throw up and those people should be
thrown in jail. Who did that? And those capital gods

(47:51):
on top of it all, they get tons of money
for what they did that day, and the only people
that were murdered were paid, and the people who did
it got promoted and got money too. I didn't get
on anymore.

Speaker 2 (48:08):
Arthur, you're dead on as usual.

Speaker 1 (48:10):
You're one thousand percent correct, And Arthur, I don't want
to get too sidetracked here, but I don't know if
you saw this.

Speaker 2 (48:15):
This broke.

Speaker 1 (48:16):
I think it was either yesterday the day before. Don't
quote me on this. The FBI, it's just Elon uncovered this.
The FBI has thirteen thousand agents. Okay, thirteen thousand. They
devoted five thousand of their agents, five thousand out of

(48:36):
thirteen thousand to hunt down J sixers. As Elon said,
that's forty percent of their workforce. That's how obsessed they
were with getting every possible J six er under the sun.
Now you know why the Mexican drug cartels were running wild.
Now you know why criminals were running wild. Now you

(48:56):
know why the FBI was never doing its job. They
five thousand out of thirteen thousand FBI agents around the
clock trying to hunt down and investigate J sixers. That's
why the FBI has to be dismantled, thoroughly politicized. It's
it's it's become now a front for the Democratic Party.

Speaker 2 (49:18):
It's it's unbold. When I saw it, I go, this
is impossible.

Speaker 5 (49:21):
Yep.

Speaker 1 (49:22):
Forty percent, forty percent of the FBI workforce for four years,
we're hunting down J six ers. So now you know
why criminals are getting away with bloody murder in this country, Arthur,
But I digress. Let that go, Arthur, as always dynamite
call six one seven, two sixty six, sixty eight, sixty eight.
But let me just recalibrate Trump now, really shocks the

(49:45):
world with a very very bold proposal he now says
he wants, or at least he's floating the idea with
that the United States should take over Gaza, long term
control over Gaza. We would have economic control, geopolitical control,
ultimately sovereignty, make it an American protectorate, resettle all of

(50:09):
the Palestinians that live there, or most of them. And
Trump says, we would put an American base, we would
put American troops.

Speaker 2 (50:16):
And then create the Riviera of.

Speaker 1 (50:18):
The Middle East where the whole world could come and
enjoy paradise on Earth. So my question to you, should
Gaza fall under US control?

Speaker 2 (50:31):
Do you like the idea? Not like the idea?

Speaker 1 (50:35):
Six one seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight?
How much time left? Mike Paul in Medfield. Thanks for
holding Paul, and welcome.

Speaker 5 (50:46):
Hey, yeah, I know this morning. Good.

Speaker 2 (50:48):
How are you, Paul?

Speaker 8 (50:49):
What's so wrong with the big Trump casino and plaza
right there on the beach in Gaza. That sounds like
a good idea of travel tourism'd be great. But I
think everything that you said, what he should do, what
he's doing, is actually part of it.

Speaker 5 (51:05):
I think he is.

Speaker 8 (51:06):
I think his message is really going out to the
Palestinians himself, saying, you know, why don't you guys stop
electing terrorist groups in death cults and you could. You
could be economically successful, you know you could. There is
other things than death and hate.
