Speaker 1 (00:00):
Good morning, Welcome. We're coming to you live with the
special edition of the People. There has been major escalations
overnight in Israel. Iran has launched cluster bombs into Israel,
striking the hospital in Beersheva and the Weisman Institute of Science.
Iran is now clearly targeting civilian populations and infrastructure in Israel.
Make no mistake, this is a major escalation. And joining
(00:23):
us this morning on the ground in Israel is someone
who has been a tireless voice for Israel's truth, it's people,
and its mission. Hellel fold Hillel has been on the
front lines of the information war for years, using his voice,
his platform, and his passion to tell the real story
of Israel to the world at a time when lies
(00:46):
spread faster than facts. He has been a force for clarity,
courage and conviction. Joined us Life from Israel. Hello, Hellel,
it's great to be back.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
I have to say it's good for my ego to
come on this show. You know.
Speaker 1 (01:02):
Excellently, I understood. Listen, Let's let's jump right in. I
know your time is valuable. Give us the latest in
terms of the attacks, what's going on in Israel, Israel's
response and The use of cluster bombs really changes this
because if Israel had targeted civilians, much like the war
(01:23):
in Gaza, you would be castigated. And yet the press
is silent about the attacks on the hospital.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
Yeah, yeah, you know, the way I see it, God
is revealing himself. I don't think like ever before since
biblical times. And it's not an exaggeration to say when
you have you know, these cluster bombs and you have
you know, warheads with tons of explosives on them that
land in civilian areas, that decimate a hospital and there
(01:53):
are no casualties. Yeah, you can say, nice coincidence. You
can say, I don't know what you want to say.
I mean, and it's not like the Iron Dome detonated
then they landed. I Ran has fired a thousand plus
drones into Israel. Zero of them, I'll repeat, zero of
them hit a target. Zero. They've targeted Israel with four
(02:13):
hundred plus by now it's probably five hundred ballistic missiles.
We're talking about twenty to twenty five impacts, and we're
talking about sadly, you know, twenty five to thirty israelis killed,
which is terrible and it's tragic and that's thirty worlds,
but also four hundred and fifty ballistic missiles should not
have thirty casualties. It should be thirty thousand casualties. And
(02:34):
that's me being conservative. So you know, from my perspective,
of course, I have tremendous gratitude and admiration and love
for the idea, for the Iron Dome, for David's Sling,
for the arrow system, for the Israeli Air Force, all
of them. But with all due respect to them, God
is all over this, and it's unbelievable to see. I
feel like Co'm in biblical times. I'm in the Bible
right now. That's how I feel. Agreed.
Speaker 3 (03:01):
That is one of the things that I have found
to be. You know, when we're seeing footages or excuse me,
footage of you know, hospitals being targeted and blown up,
when we're seeing you know, apartment buildings and and things
like that, you just have to ask yourself, like.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
This is this.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
Israelis targeting military targets, Iran is targeting civilians. There is
no question, there's nothing like, there's no confusion. How how
are we still conflating sides?
Speaker 2 (03:37):
It's very simple. It's called the global moral compass is
fundamentally broken. And this isn't something new. I mean, yeah,
I'll be honest with you. It's not like it doesn't
anger me every time it happens. It's it's it's staggering
that right now, if you go to sann dot com,
the main story on sann dot com is the damage
that Israel caused to the Iranian proper paganda TV channel
(04:01):
literally and Iran attacked and Israeli hospital okay, like decimated
a hospital, and neighborhoods killed. You know, yesterday a little
girl with leukemia killed a ninety year old grandmother, and
CNN is worried about what Israel did to the propaganda
TV channel, which is literally a TV channel full of
(04:23):
propaganda in Iran. So you know, I'm not going to
pretend that it doesn't anger me and it doesn't boil
my blood. Of course it does. But I have to
remind myself, and this takes, you know, it's not easy
to do, but a few times a day after remind
myself that none of this makes any sense, and this
is clearly not a man made war, and it's clear
that God is here and he's doing his thing. I
don't know why he's doing these things. I can't I
(04:43):
understand God's ways, but I can know that this is
not man made. None of this makes any sense from
beginning to end. And you know, this war and Iran
is no different than the warned against Hamas and Gaza
and Isabella and Lebanon and the Hoho things in Yema.
It's all the same garbage. They're all radical Islamist maniacs
who just want to destroy the West. And Israel's at
the four or front protecting the rest of the world.
And you would think the rest of the world would
think Israel, and we know the reality. Not only are
(05:04):
they not thinking Israel, but they're demonizing Israel and vilifying
Israel and it's spathetic. But it's not a sign of Israel.
It's not a reflection on Israel. It's a reflection on
the moral bankruptcy of Western civilization.
Speaker 3 (05:15):
Yeah, can you share with our audience just a little
bit about what it's like to be there right now
with the air raid sirens going on and having to
go in and out of the bunker, and like, can
you just share a little bit with our viewers, like
what day today is like right now an hour to
hour maybe right.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
Yeah, I mean, I'll tell you, but I don't think
it's what you want to hear. I'll tell you why
I'm saying that, because you know, people, you know, they
look at the news. They think Israel's under constant bombardment
and Israelis are freaking the heck out and living in
you know, it's not the reality. I go my kids
into the bombs shelter, we play guitar and we chill.
That's it. This is life in Israel. The Jewish people
are resilient and we know what we need to do.
(05:57):
And I have great, deep attitude to the Iranian regime
for unifying this country. We are deeply, deeply unified like
never before. The government that was just yesterday hated by
whatever percentage of Israeli society. There is not a single
politician that is not siding with ving Natanyau right now.
It's mirror miraculous stuff. And the entire not only is
(06:19):
the entire Israel behind Natanyao, but the entire world is
behind Natanya. Two weeks ago, if I told you that
the world would stand by Israel in a military operation,
I would have been like, you're smoking something, like what
and here we are so you know, yeah, it's it's
not fun to be woken up, you know, in the
middle of the night with these terrifying noises on my
phone that warned me of an you know, imminent missile
ballistic missile attack from Rant. I'm not gonna pretend that's fun.
(06:41):
But you know, at no point in my household will
you see anyone living in fear. We don't live in fear.
My kid, you know, just drove to not all the
way up north, but it's to a northern city to
hang out with his friends. And we're going swimming tomorrow
at my neighbor's house. Yeah, we're expecting, you know, a
siren will onto the bombs shelter and we'll sit and
we'll chill and we'll laugh and we'll joke, and we'll
eat and we'll sing, and then we'll go back to
(07:02):
our life. Whereas Tehran is burning and the regime has
you know, it's last legs now and we don't we
don't expect them to last more than a couple of days, max,
a couple of weeks. I mean, the Supreme leader, you know,
he better have gotten his affairs in order. He better
said goodbye to his loved ones. That's all I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (07:19):
Let's uh, let's see what they did to the State TV.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
Oh wait, hold on, that's not State TV. Hold on,
hold on?
Speaker 3 (07:27):
Why is she not talking to me?
Speaker 2 (07:30):
It's a great clip, and can you help me out?
Can you see what's up there? That was it? That
was it?
Speaker 3 (07:36):
I know it, just I'm not getting sound for some reason.
It's being silly, goose.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
You want me to imitate her? Here, I'll do hers.
So here there's no sound, you guys.
Speaker 3 (07:49):
But she's sitting there talking and she's saying like, oh
and then literally you see the bomb, you see the
bomb hit, and you see dust flying. For those of
you only.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
Yea, Let's be clear. Let's be clear because this is important.
This is an important point. Some people might be watching
that and saying, oh my god, Israel's targeting journalists, right,
that's yeah, that's but let's be clear what that TV
station is? That TV station And this is not me
saying this is the majority of the Iranian people saying it.
That TV station is not a TV station. Those are
not journalists. Those are terror supporting, you know, propaganda lying, uh,
(08:24):
you know, regime supporters. That's what they are. And they're
using the TV for that, but there's nothing about that
TV or that woman that is journalism. And Israel did
what it needed to do because it's silenced the evil
regime on behalf of the Iranian people. And that's important
to point that, you know, the Iranian people are the
happiest and most grateful people to the Israeli government.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
This is one of the things that is so it's
it's it's really sad to me, right, we have a
we actually have a bunch of friends here in Texas
that are from Iran and they came here fleeing, you know,
the oppression, and and there are so many people, well,
the Persian Empire has so much history and culture and
(09:06):
beauty and like good things that could be cultivated and highlighted,
and instead it's all this crazy murder everybody's stuff.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
It's right, Yeah, I mean, I just wrote a post
pretty extensive. I'm not going to read it to you,
but comparing and contrasting Israel's Iran because the Muslim world,
as is clearly demonstrated in my social media comments, hundreds
maybe thousands of Islamists, and you want to call them
islamis regular Muslims commenting in my post on my posts
with pictures of Natanyao hiding, which is of course obviously
(09:37):
AI pictures of you know, just tanks under the Israeli
hospital that was targeted, like just straight up lies, latent
lies saying that Tel Aviv is flattened and that literally,
this is a real thing. And I'm about to tell
you something right now, this is a real thing. I'm
not kidding. You're gonna think I'm joking, but I'm not.
There are actual sources, Iranian sources that say, sit down
for this, that the roads of Tehran are empty because
(10:00):
everyone's going on vacation. True story, that's what they're saying.
Truth that the reason that the roads in Tehran are
emptier not because people are scared, but because people are
going on vacation. This is what they're telling their people.
So these guys are lying NonStop, and people have millions
of movements around the world believe that Iran is winning
this story, this war. So I wrote a post like,
let's let's just speak the facts. Tehran is burning, tel
(10:22):
Aviv is flourishing. You know, Irans is a miserable country
to live in. Israel is one of the happiest places
on Earth, and so I wrote like a whole long
post about it because the contrast could not be any clearer.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
Yeah, so hello, let me let me jump. And I
want to change the topics to the cluster, not the
cluster bombs, I'm sorry, but the fourdoh and the bunker
buster bombs. And if the US doesn't get involved, because
there's a raging debate in this country, if the US
doesn't get involved, what options are there to take out
(10:55):
fourid oh?
Speaker 2 (10:56):
So it depends what you ask. There are Israeli official
that have gone on records saying that we know what
to do and we can handle it ourselves. I don't
I'm not a military strategist. I don't know the details.
But Israel has been known to do things that were otherwise,
you know, defined as impossible, and we did it. So
(11:16):
I don't know, but it's clear to everyone that if
America does get involved, the Iranian nuclear ambitions end like
on the spot. So you know, nobody knows what's gonna happen,
you know. Knowing what I know of Donald Trump, he's
a winner and he doesn't want to side with losers.
He wants to side with winners. And he sees who's
winning here, So if I had to bet, i'd bet
that he's going to jump in. In fact, he even
(11:37):
went on record and said we are winning, which is fine.
He's Israel's you know, partner in this. He's helping us
on the defense. No problem with him taking credit, but
he wants to me part of the winning team. We
are the winning team here, So if I had to bet,
i'd bet they're going to get involved. But I don't
have any intel on that either way. This war is
ending with the end of the nuclear program of the
Iranian regime. There's no question about that. And as of
(11:59):
this morning, I believe there was a new objective added
to the objectives of this war, and that is to
replace the regime, aka eliminate, assassinate the supreme leader of Iran,
which would make millions of people around the world, maybe billions,
very very happy and very thankful to Israel.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
Which brings up the next topic, which is regime change,
what comes afterwards, because there's certainly some consternation, if not concern,
in this country. You know, the US doesn't have a
really good track record all out Iraq in terms of
another you know, exporting democracy. If you will around around
the world. What comes after? I know there's talk about
(12:34):
about the the you know, Pavlovi family. Excuse me, I
get the pronunciation wrong of love family. Coming back to Iran,
but that's a monarchy, constitutional democracy. Who takes the lead,
who's the new leader, what happens afterwards? That's the real
I think trepidation in this country.
Speaker 2 (12:55):
You know what I'm gonna answer you, I don't know.
You know what Else'm gonna answer you. I don't care,
you know, because we got to do what we gotta
do right now. Nobody asked that question in Nazi Germany.
We have to Nazify Germany. We have to defeat the Germans.
We have to defeat the Nazis. Nobody asked. Nobody asked
who's going to replace them? Nobody asked what about the
innocent lives? Nobody asked any of these questions. So, of course,
you know, this needs to be dealt with the day after,
But for now, we need to do what we need
(13:16):
to do, and that is to defeat the evil Iranian regime.
You know, the discussion of the day after is an
important one, but not now. I don't know. I don't
know the answer to that. Question, and honestly I don't care.
Same by the way, the same thing for for Gaza.
You know, oh, what happens if who's gonna replace Kamas?
You can't kill an ideology. We've heard it all. I
don't care. We need to do what's right, and what's
right is defeating Kamas. Period. What happens next, we'll deal
(13:37):
with that, no question, will deal with that. Not now.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
Yeah, there is Civility is a real thing, and you
can No, we can't change the human heart, right, human
heart is what it is. We've got evil, it's a
whole thing.
Speaker 1 (13:53):
Right.
Speaker 3 (13:54):
But the idea that because some people are bad people,
we should just like sit and be victimized, like people
should just take it. That's that's crazy. And like you said,
they would say that about no one else, No nobody
else would say that that was okay.
Speaker 2 (14:10):
Yeah, but you know what, it's it's interesting that you
say we can't change the human heart. You know who
can't change the human heart? God? God? You know what
we've this is there's precedents for this, right we I
mean what happened in Egypt, right, You see ancient Egypt
the world's leading empire, and God brings destruction on the
entire empire. And I'm like, total destruction. And you would
think Pharaoh left the first plague, would say, get the
heck out of here, you Jews, I don't want you here.
(14:32):
Didn't happen, Not the second plague, not the third plague,
not the fourth, not the fifth, not the sixth, tenth plague.
He finally said why because the Torah says the Bible says,
God hardened his heart. God created a reality that Pharaoh
just didn't see what was around him. He didn't realize
that he'd better get them out of here because otherwise
his entire empire will be destroyed. And that's what we're
seeing today. I have no doubt. How do you explain
Kamas not surrendering after Godza turns into what it is.
(14:55):
How do you explain I ren that reanim regime not surrendering. Well,
first of all, it's because dical Islam does not know
that word surrender. But more importantly, God has hardened in
their hearts. Because there is no other way to explain
how these I'm sorry, insane genocidal maniacs are not waving
a white flag and saying just stop, just stop, you're
destroying us. We have no future. You're you know, Tehran
(15:17):
is blacked out, there's no Internet, there's no you know,
people on the streets. It's Tarrant was a beautiful city
and it's destroyed. You would think you would think the
leader would say enough, but no, his heart. God is
hardening his heart. I have no doubt about that whatsoever.
And like I said before, I have never felt in
my forty six years on this planet that I am
living in the Bible more than I felt this morning.
(15:39):
I'm telling you, I woke up this morning and I
opened the news as I do, and I started to
see that it's a large, large amount of ballistic missiles
heading into Israel. You know, not five, not fifteen, over twenty.
And you know, we know that we have amazing aerial
defense systems, but they're not full proof. And we knew
some of those were going to get through, and we
knew what a ballistic missile and impact can do. We
(16:02):
saw the results. So I was terrified. And then I
saw the results of it hitting and I saw that
it hit Soroka Hospital, and I saw that it hit neighborhoods,
and you could look at my Twitter this morning. I
literally said to my followers on Twitter. If you don't pray,
or if you do pray, pray now, now is the
time because this is not going to end well. Five
minutes later, I notified my Twitter followers that their prayers
(16:23):
were answered and we have no casualties. There is no way,
but I mean no way, that you can explain the
impact that we saw this morning with zero casualties. It's
not there's no you can go with your creative go
how crazy, however crazy you want. There is no way
that impact like that and destruction like that in four
(16:44):
different places, four different cities in Israel did not cause
thousands of casualties or at least hundreds or at least
tens zero. You have two unfortunately, very very old you know,
grandparents who did unfortunately die. But my understanding is they
did not die from the impact day, whatever it was,
heart attack, whatever it was. And I'm not God forbid,
Please don't understand, misunderstand that I'm diminishing or that those
(17:06):
are families, and that's terrible. And there are hundreds of injured, hundreds,
over seven hundred injuries. Out of those seven hundred, ninety
nine percent of them are light injuries, light injuries, we have.
I don't know what the final number is, but we're
very very small amount of severe injuries. That makes no sense,
Like I if you don't want to see if you
(17:26):
don't see God right now in an event like this,
you don't want to see God. I mean, there are
people that stood it at the sea when the sea's
split and said, nah, it's the winds and you know
the ten plagues. Oh, it's nature and there were frogs,
and they had all the explanations in the world because
they didn't want to see the miracles. So, okay, if
you want to see you know, you don't want to
see God here, that's fine. But the only reason, the
only way you can't see God this morning is if
(17:47):
you don't want to see him. There's no other way.
Speaker 1 (17:51):
Hell, what's the reaction that you're saying in other countries
in the middle of Saudi Arabia, Egypt, our press is
reporting nothing on that. Jordan, you understand is helping and
defending against some of the incoming missiles, is my understanding.
But we've heard. I mean, I won't say that there's
a news blackout. I'd say it's a selective quiet in
(18:13):
the US media because again, you know it's it's Israel,
therefore we're not going to report on it. But what's
going on in Saudi Arabia? That you know, what's going
on in Egypt because we know nothing about that.
Speaker 2 (18:25):
So first of all, let's just address that for one second.
I mean, it's such a mind blowing that there's not
a single like, I don't know, honest publication out there
mainstream media that reports the actual facts, like there's not
a single one. It's wild. Now. Now here's the thing.
There is an element of just being evil and Jew hating,
there's definitely an element of that. But but there's also
another element, and this is me giving them the benefit
(18:47):
of the doubt, and that is that their businesses are
crashing and burning. They have no traffic. No one's reading
CNN anymore, no one's so what do they They need clicks,
they need traffic. What gets traffic teu hatred. So they realize, Okay,
we're not going to report the truth. We got to
report in a way that will create mored you hatred,
and then more people will read our stuff. That's the
only explanation. They just lie NonStop, choose no news that's right,
(19:08):
So you know, to tell you, you know, but what
you're reading on the in the media is is false.
Is the understatement of the century. None of it's true.
None of it, and I mean none of it. I'm
getting people are saying, oh I ran down Israeli jets lies,
Oh I ran You know there are tanks under these
Raeli hospital lies. It's just NonStop Layton lies. So yeah,
(19:30):
Jordan did help, I think intercept some of the rock
some of the missiles, but I don't. I don't really
know where Saudi stands on this. They've been pretty quite recently.
I don't really know. The UAE generally is on our side.
I think Egypt is kind of playing both sides here.
I don't know. Katar is the biggest question mark. It's
just it's crazy times. I mean, like I said, this
(19:52):
is biblical stuff. These are prophecies happening right before our eyes,
and it's it's really you know, it's I'm an optimistic guy.
I'm a cup half folk kind of guy. And so
for me, the silver lining here is that the Bible's
coming to life again. God's prophecy, God's presence, and God's
clear message to us that where his children and he
loves us. And he's got our backs. Is just happening
(20:13):
and unfolding it before our eyes. It's it's insane, it's wild. Wow.
Speaker 1 (20:18):
And I think it speaks to the heart of the
Israeli people. You know, you had posted a video I
wanted to put it up about Israeli's coming back to
Israel during a time of war to support and fight
for Israel Erica. If you have that video, it's it's
you know, it's the one of the El Ala on
the plane coming back. But I mean, I think it
speaks to this moment in time in the heart of
(20:40):
the Israeli people to want to come home.
Speaker 3 (20:46):
Sorry, go ahead and play it or no, please play
play that.
Speaker 2 (21:22):
I love it.
Speaker 1 (21:24):
That that's the Jewish people, you know. And I really
is curious. You know, you're so tuned into everything that's
going on. What has surprised you in all of this?
Speaker 2 (21:37):
I just you know, on the one hand, I'm not
surprised because I know what we're made of, and the
Jewish people defy logic and nature and we've always defied
logic in nature, so it doesn't surprise me. But I
would say that the level of resilience that we're showing
that we're displaying on a daily basis. Is I don't.
It's supernatural. There's no other way to explain it. I mean,
you have a plane full of you know, Israel's coming
(22:00):
home in the middle of a regional existential war, and
instead of being worried and concerned, they're dancing and singing
about Amiestrael Hai. This is wild stuff. And this is
our story. This has always been our story. We see it,
you know, all the way back to the times of
the Bible in ancient Egypt, and you know, the Torah
says it, the more they persecuted the Israelites, the more
the Israelites flourished. That is our story. That's always been
our story, that continues to be our story. It's unbelievable.
(22:22):
It's really unbelievable. It's a source of absolute pride. I mean,
someone said to me on Facebook, one of these you know, Islamists, say, oh,
you have no shame, and I said, damn straight, I
have no shame. I'm not full of pride. You're kidding me. Shame.
I'm so proud to be I've never been prouder to
be a junior and to be a Zionist in my
life than I felt in the past week. I mean
defeating I ran a country seventy times larger than Israel
(22:46):
and we defeated them. What six days. It's wild, it's unprecedented,
it's unbelievable.
Speaker 1 (22:52):
It's hard to believe it's only been six days. I know, right,
it really is David versus Goliath of biblical proportions. Yeah again,
that's right, absolutely, Hill. I want to thank you. I
know your time is precious. Thank you for making time
to come on. And please keep the social media post
coming because frankly, it's our only source of information. You
(23:15):
you know, there's a couple other sources coming out of Israel,
but the US media is an absolute failure on this
and we get virtually no information.
Speaker 2 (23:23):
I appreciate that. Looking forward to next time. All right,
take care.
Speaker 3 (23:27):
Guys, Thank you, HELLEL, thank you, thank you for being
with us, and uh for good measure you guys. Let's
hear from our sponsor, Israel Appreciation Day as we as
we close the show for today, Thanks for joining.
Speaker 2 (23:43):
Us, hello, and thank you for being here. This is
the first ever Israel Appreciation Day.
Speaker 4 (23:50):
I believe in the words of Israel's first leader, David Bengorian,
who said One does not write history, one makes history.
Speaker 3 (24:02):
The history of the Jewish people is one of rising
and flourishing despite thousands of years of being attacked, exiled,
and scapegoated. You know.
Speaker 5 (24:11):
And I'm honored to join all of you and celebrating
the first annual Israel Appreciation Day. And there are many
reasons to appreciate ISI. It's one of America's closest allies
in the world. It's a safe haven to persecuted people,
and it's a Welsh print of innovation.
Speaker 6 (24:24):
That the land of visual was given to the Jewish people,
not by the United States.
Speaker 2 (24:29):
Nations, but by God himself.
Speaker 7 (24:31):
Well, no one wants to find that love, not to
have this weapon, to be in a bulletproof vest, to
serve in the idea.
Speaker 2 (24:37):
We cannot allow the worst instincts in our society to
when we must stand proud, we must stand tall.
Speaker 4 (24:43):
Theodore Hertzel believe the only solution was for the Jews
of Europe to free themselves. And where else do the
Jewish people belong that in their homeland in Judea.
Speaker 6 (24:53):
This is the Jewish moment when the Jewish people stands
from life over death and shows the lost and confused
West how to survive.
Speaker 8 (25:04):
From the Hollywood scene, the pioneers, the original and early
inhabitants of the land, even before the official creation of
the State of Israel in nineteen forty eight.
Speaker 1 (25:15):
In my mind, one does not have to be Jewish
to support Israel in the battle against the evil that
is a mos One only has to be human.
Speaker 8 (25:24):
Our Jewish community is stronger than ever in.
Speaker 3 (25:28):
Israel's two days.
Speaker 8 (25:30):
It's not just a place, it's also a default.
Speaker 4 (25:32):
We're only generation away from the Holocaust and understanding, yes,
it can happen.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
And yet my daughter came home and said, is they're
going to be another Holocaust.
Speaker 7 (25:41):
I couldn't live with myself if I didn't stand with
Israel and the Jewish people at this moment in time.
Speaker 2 (25:47):
One of the most made.
Speaker 4 (25:49):
Us a pre press during the Israel Amas conflict, has
provided real time updates on terror attacks.
Speaker 6 (25:57):
And if we don't learn from those conflicts in the war,
were doing to repeat the same mistake.
Speaker 7 (26:02):
And it takes a lot of courage and a lot
of strength to come out and be a voice of
one sometimee what did you do professionally prior to October seventh?
Speaker 2 (26:14):
It is your duty, ever do to shine. The lt
go on to social media, why would you flourish under persecution,
And the answer is that's our nature. That's always been
our nature. When our enemies terrorize us and they come
after us, what you see is a direct correlation to innovation.
Speaker 4 (26:32):
The nation of Israel lives
Good morning, Welcome. We're coming to you live with the
special edition of the People. There has been major escalations
overnight in Israel. Iran has launched cluster bombs into Israel,
striking the hospital in Beersheva and the Weisman Institute of Science.
Iran is now clearly targeting civilian populations and infrastructure in Israel.
Make no mistake, this is a major escalation. And joining
(00:23):
us this morning on the ground in Israel is someone
who has been a tireless voice for Israel's truth, it's people,
and its mission. Hellel fold Hillel has been on the
front lines of the information war for years, using his voice,
his platform, and his passion to tell the real story
of Israel to the world at a time when lies
(00:46):
spread faster than facts. He has been a force for clarity,
courage and conviction. Joined us Life from Israel. Hello, Hellel,
it's great to be back.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
I have to say it's good for my ego to
come on this show. You know.
Speaker 1 (01:02):
Excellently, I understood. Listen, Let's let's jump right in. I
know your time is valuable. Give us the latest in
terms of the attacks, what's going on in Israel, Israel's
response and The use of cluster bombs really changes this
because if Israel had targeted civilians, much like the war
(01:23):
in Gaza, you would be castigated. And yet the press
is silent about the attacks on the hospital.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
Yeah, yeah, you know, the way I see it, God
is revealing himself. I don't think like ever before since
biblical times. And it's not an exaggeration to say when
you have you know, these cluster bombs and you have
you know, warheads with tons of explosives on them that
land in civilian areas, that decimate a hospital and there
(01:53):
are no casualties. Yeah, you can say, nice coincidence. You
can say, I don't know what you want to say.
I mean, and it's not like the Iron Dome detonated
then they landed. I Ran has fired a thousand plus
drones into Israel. Zero of them, I'll repeat, zero of
them hit a target. Zero. They've targeted Israel with four
(02:13):
hundred plus by now it's probably five hundred ballistic missiles.
We're talking about twenty to twenty five impacts, and we're
talking about sadly, you know, twenty five to thirty israelis killed,
which is terrible and it's tragic and that's thirty worlds,
but also four hundred and fifty ballistic missiles should not
have thirty casualties. It should be thirty thousand casualties. And
(02:34):
that's me being conservative. So you know, from my perspective,
of course, I have tremendous gratitude and admiration and love
for the idea, for the Iron Dome, for David's Sling,
for the arrow system, for the Israeli Air Force, all
of them. But with all due respect to them, God
is all over this, and it's unbelievable to see. I
feel like Co'm in biblical times. I'm in the Bible
right now. That's how I feel. Agreed.
Speaker 3 (03:01):
That is one of the things that I have found
to be. You know, when we're seeing footages or excuse me,
footage of you know, hospitals being targeted and blown up,
when we're seeing you know, apartment buildings and and things
like that, you just have to ask yourself, like.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
This is this.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
Israelis targeting military targets, Iran is targeting civilians. There is
no question, there's nothing like, there's no confusion. How how
are we still conflating sides?
Speaker 2 (03:37):
It's very simple. It's called the global moral compass is
fundamentally broken. And this isn't something new. I mean, yeah,
I'll be honest with you. It's not like it doesn't
anger me every time it happens. It's it's it's staggering
that right now, if you go to sann dot com,
the main story on sann dot com is the damage
that Israel caused to the Iranian proper paganda TV channel
(04:01):
literally and Iran attacked and Israeli hospital okay, like decimated
a hospital, and neighborhoods killed. You know, yesterday a little
girl with leukemia killed a ninety year old grandmother, and
CNN is worried about what Israel did to the propaganda
TV channel, which is literally a TV channel full of
(04:23):
propaganda in Iran. So you know, I'm not going to
pretend that it doesn't anger me and it doesn't boil
my blood. Of course it does. But I have to
remind myself, and this takes, you know, it's not easy
to do, but a few times a day after remind
myself that none of this makes any sense, and this
is clearly not a man made war, and it's clear
that God is here and he's doing his thing. I
don't know why he's doing these things. I can't I
(04:43):
understand God's ways, but I can know that this is
not man made. None of this makes any sense from
beginning to end. And you know, this war and Iran
is no different than the warned against Hamas and Gaza
and Isabella and Lebanon and the Hoho things in Yema.
It's all the same garbage. They're all radical Islamist maniacs
who just want to destroy the West. And Israel's at
the four or front protecting the rest of the world.
And you would think the rest of the world would
think Israel, and we know the reality. Not only are
(05:04):
they not thinking Israel, but they're demonizing Israel and vilifying
Israel and it's spathetic. But it's not a sign of Israel.
It's not a reflection on Israel. It's a reflection on
the moral bankruptcy of Western civilization.
Speaker 3 (05:15):
Yeah, can you share with our audience just a little
bit about what it's like to be there right now
with the air raid sirens going on and having to
go in and out of the bunker, and like, can
you just share a little bit with our viewers, like
what day today is like right now an hour to
hour maybe right.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
Yeah, I mean, I'll tell you, but I don't think
it's what you want to hear. I'll tell you why
I'm saying that, because you know, people, you know, they
look at the news. They think Israel's under constant bombardment
and Israelis are freaking the heck out and living in
you know, it's not the reality. I go my kids
into the bombs shelter, we play guitar and we chill.
That's it. This is life in Israel. The Jewish people
are resilient and we know what we need to do.
(05:57):
And I have great, deep attitude to the Iranian regime
for unifying this country. We are deeply, deeply unified like
never before. The government that was just yesterday hated by
whatever percentage of Israeli society. There is not a single
politician that is not siding with ving Natanyau right now.
It's mirror miraculous stuff. And the entire not only is
(06:19):
the entire Israel behind Natanyao, but the entire world is
behind Natanya. Two weeks ago, if I told you that
the world would stand by Israel in a military operation,
I would have been like, you're smoking something, like what
and here we are so you know, yeah, it's it's
not fun to be woken up, you know, in the
middle of the night with these terrifying noises on my
phone that warned me of an you know, imminent missile
ballistic missile attack from Rant. I'm not gonna pretend that's fun.
(06:41):
But you know, at no point in my household will
you see anyone living in fear. We don't live in fear.
My kid, you know, just drove to not all the
way up north, but it's to a northern city to
hang out with his friends. And we're going swimming tomorrow
at my neighbor's house. Yeah, we're expecting, you know, a
siren will onto the bombs shelter and we'll sit and
we'll chill and we'll laugh and we'll joke, and we'll
eat and we'll sing, and then we'll go back to
(07:02):
our life. Whereas Tehran is burning and the regime has
you know, it's last legs now and we don't we
don't expect them to last more than a couple of days, max,
a couple of weeks. I mean, the Supreme leader, you know,
he better have gotten his affairs in order. He better
said goodbye to his loved ones. That's all I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (07:19):
Let's uh, let's see what they did to the State TV.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
Oh wait, hold on, that's not State TV. Hold on,
hold on?
Speaker 3 (07:27):
Why is she not talking to me?
Speaker 2 (07:30):
It's a great clip, and can you help me out?
Can you see what's up there? That was it? That
was it?
Speaker 3 (07:36):
I know it, just I'm not getting sound for some reason.
It's being silly, goose.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
You want me to imitate her? Here, I'll do hers.
So here there's no sound, you guys.
Speaker 3 (07:49):
But she's sitting there talking and she's saying like, oh
and then literally you see the bomb, you see the
bomb hit, and you see dust flying. For those of
you only.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
Yea, Let's be clear. Let's be clear because this is important.
This is an important point. Some people might be watching
that and saying, oh my god, Israel's targeting journalists, right,
that's yeah, that's but let's be clear what that TV
station is? That TV station And this is not me
saying this is the majority of the Iranian people saying it.
That TV station is not a TV station. Those are
not journalists. Those are terror supporting, you know, propaganda lying, uh,
(08:24):
you know, regime supporters. That's what they are. And they're
using the TV for that, but there's nothing about that
TV or that woman that is journalism. And Israel did
what it needed to do because it's silenced the evil
regime on behalf of the Iranian people. And that's important
to point that, you know, the Iranian people are the
happiest and most grateful people to the Israeli government.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
This is one of the things that is so it's
it's it's really sad to me, right, we have a
we actually have a bunch of friends here in Texas
that are from Iran and they came here fleeing, you know,
the oppression, and and there are so many people, well,
the Persian Empire has so much history and culture and
(09:06):
beauty and like good things that could be cultivated and highlighted,
and instead it's all this crazy murder everybody's stuff.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
It's right, Yeah, I mean, I just wrote a post
pretty extensive. I'm not going to read it to you,
but comparing and contrasting Israel's Iran because the Muslim world,
as is clearly demonstrated in my social media comments, hundreds
maybe thousands of Islamists, and you want to call them
islamis regular Muslims commenting in my post on my posts
with pictures of Natanyao hiding, which is of course obviously
(09:37):
AI pictures of you know, just tanks under the Israeli
hospital that was targeted, like just straight up lies, latent
lies saying that Tel Aviv is flattened and that literally,
this is a real thing. And I'm about to tell
you something right now, this is a real thing. I'm
not kidding. You're gonna think I'm joking, but I'm not.
There are actual sources, Iranian sources that say, sit down
for this, that the roads of Tehran are empty because
(10:00):
everyone's going on vacation. True story, that's what they're saying.
Truth that the reason that the roads in Tehran are
emptier not because people are scared, but because people are
going on vacation. This is what they're telling their people.
So these guys are lying NonStop, and people have millions
of movements around the world believe that Iran is winning
this story, this war. So I wrote a post like,
let's let's just speak the facts. Tehran is burning, tel
(10:22):
Aviv is flourishing. You know, Irans is a miserable country
to live in. Israel is one of the happiest places
on Earth, and so I wrote like a whole long
post about it because the contrast could not be any clearer.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
Yeah, so hello, let me let me jump. And I
want to change the topics to the cluster, not the
cluster bombs, I'm sorry, but the fourdoh and the bunker
buster bombs. And if the US doesn't get involved, because
there's a raging debate in this country, if the US
doesn't get involved, what options are there to take out
(10:55):
fourid oh?
Speaker 2 (10:56):
So it depends what you ask. There are Israeli official
that have gone on records saying that we know what
to do and we can handle it ourselves. I don't
I'm not a military strategist. I don't know the details.
But Israel has been known to do things that were otherwise,
you know, defined as impossible, and we did it. So
(11:16):
I don't know, but it's clear to everyone that if
America does get involved, the Iranian nuclear ambitions end like
on the spot. So you know, nobody knows what's gonna happen,
you know. Knowing what I know of Donald Trump, he's
a winner and he doesn't want to side with losers.
He wants to side with winners. And he sees who's
winning here, So if I had to bet, i'd bet
that he's going to jump in. In fact, he even
(11:37):
went on record and said we are winning, which is fine.
He's Israel's you know, partner in this. He's helping us
on the defense. No problem with him taking credit, but
he wants to me part of the winning team. We
are the winning team here, So if I had to bet,
i'd bet they're going to get involved. But I don't
have any intel on that either way. This war is
ending with the end of the nuclear program of the
Iranian regime. There's no question about that. And as of
(11:59):
this morning, I believe there was a new objective added
to the objectives of this war, and that is to
replace the regime, aka eliminate, assassinate the supreme leader of Iran,
which would make millions of people around the world, maybe billions,
very very happy and very thankful to Israel.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
Which brings up the next topic, which is regime change,
what comes afterwards, because there's certainly some consternation, if not concern,
in this country. You know, the US doesn't have a
really good track record all out Iraq in terms of
another you know, exporting democracy. If you will around around
the world. What comes after? I know there's talk about
(12:34):
about the the you know, Pavlovi family. Excuse me, I
get the pronunciation wrong of love family. Coming back to Iran,
but that's a monarchy, constitutional democracy. Who takes the lead,
who's the new leader, what happens afterwards? That's the real
I think trepidation in this country.
Speaker 2 (12:55):
You know what I'm gonna answer you, I don't know.
You know what Else'm gonna answer you. I don't care,
you know, because we got to do what we gotta
do right now. Nobody asked that question in Nazi Germany.
We have to Nazify Germany. We have to defeat the Germans.
We have to defeat the Nazis. Nobody asked. Nobody asked
who's going to replace them? Nobody asked what about the
innocent lives? Nobody asked any of these questions. So, of course,
you know, this needs to be dealt with the day after,
But for now, we need to do what we need
(13:16):
to do, and that is to defeat the evil Iranian regime.
You know, the discussion of the day after is an
important one, but not now. I don't know. I don't
know the answer to that. Question, and honestly I don't care.
Same by the way, the same thing for for Gaza.
You know, oh, what happens if who's gonna replace Kamas?
You can't kill an ideology. We've heard it all. I
don't care. We need to do what's right, and what's
right is defeating Kamas. Period. What happens next, we'll deal
(13:37):
with that, no question, will deal with that. Not now.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
Yeah, there is Civility is a real thing, and you
can No, we can't change the human heart, right, human
heart is what it is. We've got evil, it's a
whole thing.
Speaker 1 (13:53):
Right.
Speaker 3 (13:54):
But the idea that because some people are bad people,
we should just like sit and be victimized, like people
should just take it. That's that's crazy. And like you said,
they would say that about no one else, No nobody
else would say that that was okay.
Speaker 2 (14:10):
Yeah, but you know what, it's it's interesting that you
say we can't change the human heart. You know who
can't change the human heart? God? God? You know what
we've this is there's precedents for this, right we I
mean what happened in Egypt, right, You see ancient Egypt
the world's leading empire, and God brings destruction on the
entire empire. And I'm like, total destruction. And you would
think Pharaoh left the first plague, would say, get the
heck out of here, you Jews, I don't want you here.
(14:32):
Didn't happen, Not the second plague, not the third plague,
not the fourth, not the fifth, not the sixth, tenth plague.
He finally said why because the Torah says the Bible says,
God hardened his heart. God created a reality that Pharaoh
just didn't see what was around him. He didn't realize
that he'd better get them out of here because otherwise
his entire empire will be destroyed. And that's what we're
seeing today. I have no doubt. How do you explain
Kamas not surrendering after Godza turns into what it is.
(14:55):
How do you explain I ren that reanim regime not surrendering. Well,
first of all, it's because dical Islam does not know
that word surrender. But more importantly, God has hardened in
their hearts. Because there is no other way to explain
how these I'm sorry, insane genocidal maniacs are not waving
a white flag and saying just stop, just stop, you're
destroying us. We have no future. You're you know, Tehran
(15:17):
is blacked out, there's no Internet, there's no you know,
people on the streets. It's Tarrant was a beautiful city
and it's destroyed. You would think you would think the
leader would say enough, but no, his heart. God is
hardening his heart. I have no doubt about that whatsoever.
And like I said before, I have never felt in
my forty six years on this planet that I am
living in the Bible more than I felt this morning.
(15:39):
I'm telling you, I woke up this morning and I
opened the news as I do, and I started to
see that it's a large, large amount of ballistic missiles
heading into Israel. You know, not five, not fifteen, over twenty.
And you know, we know that we have amazing aerial
defense systems, but they're not full proof. And we knew
some of those were going to get through, and we
knew what a ballistic missile and impact can do. We
(16:02):
saw the results. So I was terrified. And then I
saw the results of it hitting and I saw that
it hit Soroka Hospital, and I saw that it hit neighborhoods,
and you could look at my Twitter this morning. I
literally said to my followers on Twitter. If you don't pray,
or if you do pray, pray now, now is the
time because this is not going to end well. Five
minutes later, I notified my Twitter followers that their prayers
(16:23):
were answered and we have no casualties. There is no way,
but I mean no way, that you can explain the
impact that we saw this morning with zero casualties. It's
not there's no you can go with your creative go
how crazy, however crazy you want. There is no way
that impact like that and destruction like that in four
(16:44):
different places, four different cities in Israel did not cause
thousands of casualties or at least hundreds or at least
tens zero. You have two unfortunately, very very old you know,
grandparents who did unfortunately die. But my understanding is they
did not die from the impact day, whatever it was,
heart attack, whatever it was. And I'm not God forbid,
Please don't understand, misunderstand that I'm diminishing or that those
(17:06):
are families, and that's terrible. And there are hundreds of injured, hundreds,
over seven hundred injuries. Out of those seven hundred, ninety
nine percent of them are light injuries, light injuries, we have.
I don't know what the final number is, but we're
very very small amount of severe injuries. That makes no sense,
Like I if you don't want to see if you
(17:26):
don't see God right now in an event like this,
you don't want to see God. I mean, there are
people that stood it at the sea when the sea's
split and said, nah, it's the winds and you know
the ten plagues. Oh, it's nature and there were frogs,
and they had all the explanations in the world because
they didn't want to see the miracles. So, okay, if
you want to see you know, you don't want to
see God here, that's fine. But the only reason, the
only way you can't see God this morning is if
(17:47):
you don't want to see him. There's no other way.
Speaker 1 (17:51):
Hell, what's the reaction that you're saying in other countries
in the middle of Saudi Arabia, Egypt, our press is
reporting nothing on that. Jordan, you understand is helping and
defending against some of the incoming missiles, is my understanding.
But we've heard. I mean, I won't say that there's
a news blackout. I'd say it's a selective quiet in
(18:13):
the US media because again, you know it's it's Israel,
therefore we're not going to report on it. But what's
going on in Saudi Arabia? That you know, what's going
on in Egypt because we know nothing about that.
Speaker 2 (18:25):
So first of all, let's just address that for one second.
I mean, it's such a mind blowing that there's not
a single like, I don't know, honest publication out there
mainstream media that reports the actual facts, like there's not
a single one. It's wild. Now. Now here's the thing.
There is an element of just being evil and Jew hating,
there's definitely an element of that. But but there's also
another element, and this is me giving them the benefit
(18:47):
of the doubt, and that is that their businesses are
crashing and burning. They have no traffic. No one's reading
CNN anymore, no one's so what do they They need clicks,
they need traffic. What gets traffic teu hatred. So they realize, Okay,
we're not going to report the truth. We got to
report in a way that will create mored you hatred,
and then more people will read our stuff. That's the
only explanation. They just lie NonStop, choose no news that's right,
(19:08):
So you know, to tell you, you know, but what
you're reading on the in the media is is false.
Is the understatement of the century. None of it's true.
None of it, and I mean none of it. I'm
getting people are saying, oh I ran down Israeli jets lies,
Oh I ran You know there are tanks under these
Raeli hospital lies. It's just NonStop Layton lies. So yeah,
(19:30):
Jordan did help, I think intercept some of the rock
some of the missiles, but I don't. I don't really
know where Saudi stands on this. They've been pretty quite recently.
I don't really know. The UAE generally is on our side.
I think Egypt is kind of playing both sides here.
I don't know. Katar is the biggest question mark. It's
just it's crazy times. I mean, like I said, this
(19:52):
is biblical stuff. These are prophecies happening right before our eyes,
and it's it's really you know, it's I'm an optimistic guy.
I'm a cup half folk kind of guy. And so
for me, the silver lining here is that the Bible's
coming to life again. God's prophecy, God's presence, and God's
clear message to us that where his children and he
loves us. And he's got our backs. Is just happening
(20:13):
and unfolding it before our eyes. It's it's insane, it's wild. Wow.
Speaker 1 (20:18):
And I think it speaks to the heart of the
Israeli people. You know, you had posted a video I
wanted to put it up about Israeli's coming back to
Israel during a time of war to support and fight
for Israel Erica. If you have that video, it's it's
you know, it's the one of the El Ala on
the plane coming back. But I mean, I think it
speaks to this moment in time in the heart of
(20:40):
the Israeli people to want to come home.
Speaker 3 (20:46):
Sorry, go ahead and play it or no, please play
play that.
Speaker 2 (21:22):
I love it.
Speaker 1 (21:24):
That that's the Jewish people, you know. And I really
is curious. You know, you're so tuned into everything that's
going on. What has surprised you in all of this?
Speaker 2 (21:37):
I just you know, on the one hand, I'm not
surprised because I know what we're made of, and the
Jewish people defy logic and nature and we've always defied
logic in nature, so it doesn't surprise me. But I
would say that the level of resilience that we're showing
that we're displaying on a daily basis. Is I don't.
It's supernatural. There's no other way to explain it. I mean,
you have a plane full of you know, Israel's coming
(22:00):
home in the middle of a regional existential war, and
instead of being worried and concerned, they're dancing and singing
about Amiestrael Hai. This is wild stuff. And this is
our story. This has always been our story. We see it,
you know, all the way back to the times of
the Bible in ancient Egypt, and you know, the Torah
says it, the more they persecuted the Israelites, the more
the Israelites flourished. That is our story. That's always been
our story, that continues to be our story. It's unbelievable.
(22:22):
It's really unbelievable. It's a source of absolute pride. I mean,
someone said to me on Facebook, one of these you know, Islamists, say, oh,
you have no shame, and I said, damn straight, I
have no shame. I'm not full of pride. You're kidding me. Shame.
I'm so proud to be I've never been prouder to
be a junior and to be a Zionist in my
life than I felt in the past week. I mean
defeating I ran a country seventy times larger than Israel
(22:46):
and we defeated them. What six days. It's wild, it's unprecedented,
it's unbelievable.
Speaker 1 (22:52):
It's hard to believe it's only been six days. I know, right,
it really is David versus Goliath of biblical proportions. Yeah again,
that's right, absolutely, Hill. I want to thank you. I
know your time is precious. Thank you for making time
to come on. And please keep the social media post
coming because frankly, it's our only source of information. You
(23:15):
you know, there's a couple other sources coming out of Israel,
but the US media is an absolute failure on this
and we get virtually no information.
Speaker 2 (23:23):
I appreciate that. Looking forward to next time. All right,
take care.
Speaker 3 (23:27):
Guys, Thank you, HELLEL, thank you, thank you for being
with us, and uh for good measure you guys. Let's
hear from our sponsor, Israel Appreciation Day as we as
we close the show for today, Thanks for joining.
Speaker 2 (23:43):
Us, hello, and thank you for being here. This is
the first ever Israel Appreciation Day.
Speaker 4 (23:50):
I believe in the words of Israel's first leader, David Bengorian,
who said One does not write history, one makes history.
Speaker 3 (24:02):
The history of the Jewish people is one of rising
and flourishing despite thousands of years of being attacked, exiled,
and scapegoated. You know.
Speaker 5 (24:11):
And I'm honored to join all of you and celebrating
the first annual Israel Appreciation Day. And there are many
reasons to appreciate ISI. It's one of America's closest allies
in the world. It's a safe haven to persecuted people,
and it's a Welsh print of innovation.
Speaker 6 (24:24):
That the land of visual was given to the Jewish people,
not by the United States.
Speaker 2 (24:29):
Nations, but by God himself.
Speaker 7 (24:31):
Well, no one wants to find that love, not to
have this weapon, to be in a bulletproof vest, to
serve in the idea.
Speaker 2 (24:37):
We cannot allow the worst instincts in our society to
when we must stand proud, we must stand tall.
Speaker 4 (24:43):
Theodore Hertzel believe the only solution was for the Jews
of Europe to free themselves. And where else do the
Jewish people belong that in their homeland in Judea.
Speaker 6 (24:53):
This is the Jewish moment when the Jewish people stands
from life over death and shows the lost and confused
West how to survive.
Speaker 8 (25:04):
From the Hollywood scene, the pioneers, the original and early
inhabitants of the land, even before the official creation of
the State of Israel in nineteen forty eight.
Speaker 1 (25:15):
In my mind, one does not have to be Jewish
to support Israel in the battle against the evil that
is a mos One only has to be human.
Speaker 8 (25:24):
Our Jewish community is stronger than ever in.
Speaker 3 (25:28):
Israel's two days.
Speaker 8 (25:30):
It's not just a place, it's also a default.
Speaker 4 (25:32):
We're only generation away from the Holocaust and understanding, yes,
it can happen.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
And yet my daughter came home and said, is they're
going to be another Holocaust.
Speaker 7 (25:41):
I couldn't live with myself if I didn't stand with
Israel and the Jewish people at this moment in time.
Speaker 2 (25:47):
One of the most made.
Speaker 4 (25:49):
Us a pre press during the Israel Amas conflict, has
provided real time updates on terror attacks.
Speaker 6 (25:57):
And if we don't learn from those conflicts in the war,
were doing to repeat the same mistake.
Speaker 7 (26:02):
And it takes a lot of courage and a lot
of strength to come out and be a voice of
one sometimee what did you do professionally prior to October seventh?
Speaker 2 (26:14):
It is your duty, ever do to shine. The lt
go on to social media, why would you flourish under persecution,
And the answer is that's our nature. That's always been
our nature. When our enemies terrorize us and they come
after us, what you see is a direct correlation to innovation.
Speaker 4 (26:32):
The nation of Israel lives
