Sean Hannity closes the day with a sweeping look at the broader consequences of Operation Epic Fury. In a powerful interview with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Hannity explores why this moment was unavoidable and how years of Iranian aggression culminated in decisive joint action. The conversation revisits Iran’s nuclear ambitions, the failed negotiations, and the precision strikes that eliminated both nuclear infrastructure and regime leadership. Hannity argues this is not about regime occupation or endless war — but about removing an existential nuclear threat before it becomes unstoppable. The hour ends with a bold question: Could this moment unlock a new era of Middle East peace?

Speaker 1 (00:00):
All right, News Round Up, Information Overload hour here on
(00:02):
the Sean Hannity Show, Toll free. It's eight hundred and
nine point one, Shawn, if you want to be a
part of the program. In spite of just what has
been spectacular success in this joint mission with the United States,
Donald Trump and the Prime Minister of Israel will play
part of my interview with bb net Yahoo coming up.
The Democrats, but remember, the one thing they can have
(00:26):
is for Donald Trump to be successful, so they have
to cheer for American failure. They don't want the economy
to recover the way it's recovering, and they're hoping it
doesn't recover anymore. It's a horrible position for anybody to
be in, but it is what it is. And in
the case of this effort, you know, to prevent the
(00:49):
Iranians from getting a nuclear weapon to hold the world hostage,
here's a team Jeffries, he is the minority leader in
name only, appealing to the radical based squad.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
You know this is going to be a failure. It'll
end in failure.
Speaker 3 (01:03):
Listen, the American people want us to focus on making
their life better, making their life more affordable, not getting
involved in another endless war in the Middle East that
is going to end in failure.
Speaker 1 (01:15):
Now, this affordability thing is not working out too well
for the Democrats. As interest rates are down, inflation is down,
gas prices have been down. They may go up temporarily
a little bit because of the disruption of the free
flow of oil at market prices, but that will change
rather quickly. But you know, on every measure, job creation,
(01:36):
everything in between, and trillions and new investments in manufacturing.
Now things are getting a lot better, but not that
he wants us to or or is cheering for American success.
Over on that hard hitting news show, the view Sunny
Houstin is out there saying Iran war is an illegal,
un constitutional war.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
No it's not. But listen, I'm gonna say. You know,
the bottom line is that this is an illegal war.
This is an unconstitutional war.
Speaker 1 (02:04):
Only Congress can wait war in the war presidential war. Now,
let's just take a trip down memory lane, and when
Barack Obama and Joe Biden were involved in conflicts around
the world, not one Democrat ever called for the War
Powers Act. That they just they don't want Donald Trump
to be successful. Here's Nancy Pelosi saying, oh, there's no
(02:25):
need for this.
Speaker 4 (02:27):
Let me speaking a madam leader.
Speaker 5 (02:29):
You're saying that the president did not need authorization initially
and still does not need.
Speaker 4 (02:35):
Any authorization from Congress one Libya.
Speaker 1 (02:38):
Yes, yes, of course, only Donald Trump does because we
hate him, we don't like him. John Brennan. I've been
hearing from sources now for weeks on end that he
may be on the verge of some indictment. We'll see
if in fact my sources end up being correct. Him
out there attacking the Trump administration saying that they're making
(03:00):
things up to justify the Iranian attack. They're not making
things up. They are looking at the stark reality is
that the Iranians, and you can actually see satellite imaging
that proves it. We're reconstituting their ballistic missiles program and
then nuclear program, as evidence by the interview that I
(03:23):
had with Steve Wikoff, the Middle East envoy involved in
the negotiations. But doesn't stop John Brennan from just being
the wire propagandas that I think he's always been.
Speaker 6 (03:32):
Now we're going ahead and carrying out this major attack
against a very large country, Iran, which is much larger
than Iraq, and there's a lot of history here obviously,
in the region and so on. But what we've seen
in the past several days is devastating attacks against Iran
and the Iranian government. The Iranian regime is not relenting
this point, and that's why they're throwing everything they have
(03:56):
at nearby targets, whether it be us Basis or the
Goldferrips whatever. This is such a tragic, tragic, senseless and
needless loss of life that we're seeing right now. As
Senator mar Warter said, there was no imminent threat. Clearly,
I think the administration is now making things up in
order to try to.
Speaker 4 (04:15):
Justify what's happening.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
Okay, you know, just ignore all all sense of reality
and truth. And by the way, they're not relenting. No,
they're dead, you idiot. I mean, how stupid can you be?
Marco Rubio responds to all of this and slamming the
media for questioning the reasons for this operation in Iran.
Speaker 4 (04:38):
I haven't got a.
Speaker 7 (04:38):
Chance to see a lot of reporting. I don't understand
what the confusion is. Let me explain it to you,
and I'll do it once again as clearly as possible.
Speaker 4 (04:46):
Perhaps you'll report it that way.
Speaker 7 (04:48):
The United States is conducting an operation to eliminate the
threat of Iran's short range ballistic missiles and the threat
caused by their navy. It's particularly to enable assets. That
is what it is focused on doing right now, and
it's doing quite successfully.
Speaker 4 (05:01):
I'll leave it to the Pentagon.
Speaker 7 (05:03):
And the Department of Ward discussed the tactics behind that
in the progress that's being made. That is the clear
objective of this mission. The second question they've been asked
is why now. Well, if there's two reasons, why now.
The first is it was abundantly clear that if Iran
came under attack by anyone, the United States or Israel
or anyone, they were going to respond and respond against
the United States.
Speaker 4 (05:23):
The orders had.
Speaker 7 (05:24):
Been delegated down to the field commanders. It was automatic,
and in fact it bare to be true because, in fact,
within an hour of the initial attack on the Leadership Compound,
the missile forces in the South and in the North
for that matter, had already been activated to launch, in fact,
those that already been prepositioned. The third is the assessment
(05:44):
that was made that if we stood and waited for
that attack to come first before we hit them, we
would suffer much higher casualties, and so the President made
the very wise decision. We knew that there was going
to be an Israeli action, We knew that that would
precipitate an attack against America forces, and we knew that
if we didn't preemptibly go after them before they launched
those attacks, we would suffer higher casualties and perhaps even
(06:07):
highre those killed, and then we would all be here
answering questions about why we knew that and didn't.
Speaker 1 (06:13):
I mean, Marco is just a rock star. He's killing it,
he's crushing it anyway, joining us now. Jack Carr, retired
Navy seal, author of the upcoming book out in May,
The Fourth Option, gives his military analysis of what's happening.
I think the opening thirty seconds that we saw and witnessed,
and the entire they decapitated the head of the leadership
(06:37):
in Iran, I think was something that you know, will
be studied, as I said to Steve Wikkoff, for decades
and probably the next hundred and fifty two hundred years.
I said that to BB two. And I'm looking at
all of this, and I'm looking at the other news
of the day, and it's like Okay, So now the
remaining Iranian leaders meet to pick a new leader, and
(06:59):
all of those people were taken out today.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
I've never seen anything like this in my life.
Speaker 5 (07:03):
Yeah, it's quite remarkable. It just speaks to obviously our
intelligence services, the level of penetration we have within the
regime or former regime at this point. So it is
quite remarkable and will be studied, as you said, for
decades here to come. But the whole attack really is
a long time coming in my opinion here and I
(07:25):
mean I'm of the age where are Some of my
first memories are of the nineteen seventy nine hostage crisis.
I was in Catholic school at the time. They marched
us all to Chapel and we prayed for the hostages.
And then of course the Marine Corps headquarters in Barracks
bombing in nineteen eighty three. That was very impactful to
a kid who's I'm already on my path into the military.
And I see this on Time and newsweek and all
(07:45):
over the news, and I even wrote my first nonfiction
book about it, it's called Targeted. But for a lot
of us who served in Iraq and Afghanistan, we're understandably,
I think skeptical when we hear words like regime change WMD,
just with the wounds and memories and lessons being so fresh.
But that being said, Iraq and Iran comparison that everyone's making,
it's not apples to apples. Every situation obviously is different
(08:09):
and requires that you adapt to it, especially in the
middle of combat operations where the enemy always gets the vote,
situations chaotic, dynamic, there's a host of variables that you
can't predict, and there will of course be unintended consequences.
There always are. What's important now, I think, is that
we adapt to those unintended consequences, to the ever changing
environment on the battlefield. And we're very good at doing
(08:29):
that tactically on the ground in Iraq. In Afghanistan, very
good at that. But our senior military leaders, elected representatives,
appointed executives across government, they were not over those twenty
years where were in Afghanistan and all those years we
were interact there, are very slow to adapt as they
adapted at all. And everyone remembers how we went from
WMD to regime changed to nation building to counter insurgency efforts,
(08:50):
all while nation building hampered by in that strategic decisions
like dispanding the Iraqi Army depasification, which essentially created the
insurgency supported by Iran where the insert has had a
safe haven across the border where we couldn't go, and
that's where they could build their EFPs, which were the
explosively formed penetrators which could defeat our armor. But the
question is, when I hear all the opposing views of
(09:12):
what we're doing right now, is how close to developing
a nuclear weapon do you allow a hostile authoritarian regime
whose organizing principle has been death to America since nineteen
seventy nine? How close do you allow them to get
to developing that weapon five years, two years, one year,
six months, a week before you eliminate that threat and
(09:32):
we can go back to We all remember Al Qaeda
they declared war on us nineteen ninety six, nineteen ninety eight,
embassy bombings in Tanzania and Kenya, the USS coal, and
we still didn't take them seriously, even though they were
very clear that they had declared war on US, and
we treated it as a law enforcement matter all the
way up until September eleventh, two thousand and one. So
(09:53):
there are examples in the pages of history. And let's
go to nineteen eighty three really quick is and now
there's a host of res I'd like to go back
to the eighties. I think that's the greatest decade in
the history of mankind. But there are lessons from nineteen
eighty three Beirut and when our headquarters and barracks were
bombed in October of nineteen eighty three, two hundred and
(10:15):
forty one servicemen killed, the largest number of Marines killed
SINCEI Rejima in World War Two. The lesson that the
enemy took from that was that terrorism works. And what
Iran took from that specifically is that terrorism through proxy's work.
Because there was a lot of tough talk out of
the administration at the time, and then we left very
quietly in early nineteen eighty four. So there's a direct
line between the inept response in nineteen eighty three nineteen
(10:39):
eighty four to September eleventh and beyond.
Speaker 1 (10:42):
All right, quick break, final moments. Jack Carr is with
US retired Navy seal author of the upcoming book out
in May, the Fourth Option, giving his military analysis of
what has been going on inside of Iran and this massive,
overwhelming show of force and victory by the US Armed Services.
Speaker 8 (11:08):
You know, now that the adults are back in office,
maybe we can get some work done around here. Are
you ready?
Speaker 4 (11:15):
Welcome back, President Trump.
Speaker 8 (11:18):
This is the Sean Hannity Show, right, we continue now.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
Jack Harror is with us.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
He's a retired Navy seal, author of the upcoming book
it's out in May, The Fourth Option, giving his military
analysis of what is happening on the ground in Iran
and the credible work of the US military, in the
might of the US military, and the vision of the
President in this entire issue, in the moral clarity he's showing.
(12:10):
I know it's beyond comprehension. But what we learned from
Steve Witkoff, the Middle East envoy, who, along with Jared Kushner,
was trying to negotiate a deal with the Iranians under
the principle that Donald Trump played out, which is they
cannot have nuclear weapons. They offered the Iranians low level
enriched Uranian for civilian purposes, only that not only would
(12:33):
they allow them to have that, but they would allow
them to have it for free, and they'd allow them
to have it for free, and perpetuity, and they rejected
that deal, which shows that they were clinging to their
nuclear ambitions to the very end. And now that leadership's
been wiped out, I mean just wiped out.
Speaker 5 (12:52):
Cold, clearly, clearly, and if they're not going to take
that deal, that they're not going to take any deal,
and it's just a stall tactic till they can get
to a point where they actually have developed this nuclear weapon.
Speaker 1 (13:06):
And you can see the satellite imagery they were reconstituting
their ballistic missiles programs, which Donald Trump mentioned on day one,
and the same with the nuclear program, and you can
see the images proving that that was all true.
Speaker 5 (13:21):
Yep. In every administration really from nineteen seventy nine on,
were multiple administrations, both parties. They've had that same pillar
of US foreign policy, which is not allowing a rand
to have a nuclear weapon. That is a red line
in the sand. They've all had different ways they've tried
to deal with Well.
Speaker 1 (13:35):
Well, it wasn't for Biden and it wasn't for Obama.
I mean, they were delivering cargo planes full of cash
and of the currency to try and bribe them out
of it.
Speaker 5 (13:44):
That is very true. And now we have this administration
where you have people in positions within the administration thats
are that's served on the ground in Iraq and Afghanistan.
They remember those same lessons that I do. They remember
being there on the ground, and they remember what our sene,
your level leaders did and essentially putting us in harm's way,
that making us targets and also allowing the worldwide Jihatis
(14:08):
to point to us as the infidels and use that
as a propaganda tool. That they were very effective at
doing that, much more effective than we will in encountering it.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
Let me, let me bring up one thing that I
think needs to be said, and that is this idea
of endless wars, as as the Prime Minister bb Nenyahu said, No,
it's not going to be an endless war, but it's
it's not part of the Trump doctrine. There's not going
to be boots on the ground, not going to be
an endless war.
Speaker 6 (14:34):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (14:34):
This will end with the Iranian people having an opportunity
to change their destiny, perhaps once in a generation opportunity,
as the President said, and the threat of a nuclear
armed Iran, the chance death to Israel and America is gone,
and they won't have any nuclear power for the foreseeable future, unless,
of course, you know, another regime similar to the one
(14:57):
that just got killed comes back in power.
Speaker 5 (15:00):
It seems that they're taking those lessons in the past
applying them to the present problems set as wisdom, which
is really all we can hope for. It seems like
the days of if you break it, you buy it,
the Colon Powell pottery bound barn rule is not in
play anymore. Seems like nation building is not in play anymore,
and putting us on the ground as targets essentially is
(15:21):
not in the way that we do.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
Those days are over.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
The days of sending kids door to door, you know,
stepping over IEDs without up armored Humby's those days. We'll
never going back to those days. And I predict future
wars are going to be fought from air conditioned offices.
We're seeing the beginning of those days right now, and
it's only going to get more sophisticated over time. I
could talk to you all day, Jack Carr, really appreciate
(15:46):
your retired Navy seal.
Speaker 2 (15:48):
Thanks so much for being with us. We do appreciate you.
Speaker 5 (15:51):
Thanks for having me on you take care all right.
Speaker 1 (15:53):
So last night I had the Prime Minister of Israel.
This is a joint operation the Israeli IDF and America's
military might, and what they have been able to accomplish
is beyond spectacular. But anyway, here's my interview with the
Prime Minister of Israel, Benjamin and Yahoo joining us. Now
(16:14):
is the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin at Yahoo. Mister Prime Minister,
thank you for being here. I know you probably have
gotten very little sleep in the last number of days.
Why now, what precipitated this moment at this time?
Speaker 9 (16:31):
I know you have talked about it. We've known each
other thirty thirty five maybe more years. And why at
this point was this necessary?
Speaker 10 (16:40):
Well, the first thing to understand is why it's necessary
at any time. Iran for forty seven years has been
chanting death to America, death to Israel too. But you're
the big Satan, We're the small Statan. Death to America.
They've murdered and named thousands of Americans in Iraq and Afghanistan,
their IEDs, these roadside bombs, they bombed your embassies. They
(17:06):
try to assassinate Donald Trump, the President of the United States, twice.
They've murdered their own people. They massacred so many, and
they spread a worldwide web of terror. So this is
a regime committed to destroying the United States of America.
It's the only country and the planet that says so
openly and works tirelessly to achieve that goal. The reason
(17:30):
that we had to act now is because they were
after we hit their nuclear sites and their ballistic missiles program.
You'd think they learned a lesson, but they didn't because
they're unreformable. They're totally fanatic about this, about the goal
of destroying America. So they started building new sites, new
(17:50):
places underground bunkers that would make their ballistic missile program
and their atomic bomb program immune within months. No action
was taken now, no action could be taken in the future,
and then they could target America. They could blackmail America,
they could threaten US and threaten everyone in between. So
(18:11):
action had to be taken, and you needed the resolute
president like Donald J.
Speaker 4 (18:15):
Trump to take that action. And we are his very
strong and.
Speaker 10 (18:21):
Able partners, and our alliance today is so strong. We
had to take the action now, and we did. Otherwise
the Iranian mass murder regime would have immunity from future action.
Speaker 9 (18:33):
Steve Whitkoff made this statement the Middle Eastern Envoy. We
made it last week that they absolutely are clinging to
their ability to build out a nuclear weapons program. And
the President, as he said he wanted a peace deal,
gave them every opportunity for peace like they did before
(18:54):
Operation Midnight Hammer, and they steadfastly refused in the first
the first thirty seconds. I've never seen anything like this
in my life. The supreme leader, the Ayatola Ali Hamane
and his top forty leaders were wiped out, Aquadtajade among them.
That is incredible intelligence. And wow, I'm sure this will
(19:18):
be studied for centuries to come, not decades.
Speaker 10 (19:22):
Well, you know when America the indispensable ally for Israel
and the greatest part of the world in Israel, America's
model ally is the National Security Council just called it.
When we worked together, amazing things happened. We worked together,
and amazing things happened. But I have to tell you
(19:42):
that it wouldn't happen without the leadership of President Trump because.
Speaker 4 (19:47):
He just you know, I met him in mar Lago.
Speaker 10 (19:52):
You may remember this because I think you live close
by and I saw you at that time right before
I was a reelection, okay, and or before he was
inaugurated the second time and we met. We met in
mar Lagum, and the first thing that Donald Trump said
to me, he said, you know, we have to prevent
(20:13):
Iran from getting nukes, as simple as that. He said
that because he saw that as a clear and present
danger to the security and wellbeing of the United States.
To have a regime like that, so fanatic that it
just defines itself by destroying America, exporting revolution, exporting terrorism,
(20:34):
exporting the worst Islamist fanaticism that attacks Arabs, attacks Israelis,
attacks Americans, attacks everyone inside.
Speaker 4 (20:43):
They just fired.
Speaker 10 (20:44):
Now they're in sight around the police, including Cyprus in Europe.
To have a regime like that that plans to eradicate
the United States have the weapons of mass death would
have been the greatest threat that America would face in
the coming decades. And so he said to me right
off the bat. I didn't say to him. He said
(21:04):
to me, we have to make sure they never get
the nukes. And that's what he did. We tried first
to take them out in Midnight Hammer and the Rising
Line operation, and we took out their missile sites. But
then they started again their missile and nuclear sites. They
didn't learn the lesson. He tried to get negotiations. He
negotiated with them, they didn't get it. They tried to
(21:25):
string them along. So action had to be taken, and
we took it.
Speaker 9 (21:30):
President Trump repeated over and over and over again, and
I would argue that the leadership that is now dead
was a death cult and an existential threat, not just
to the region, not just to Israel, death to Israel,
death to America. But I am very convinced that have
been convinced that you have been for decades that if
(21:52):
they ever got nuclear weapons, that they would you know,
along with their fanaticism, it would cause them to use it.
That is what that death cult would cause them to do.
Is this now the culmination of decades of your work
and your belief and your passion that these radicals needed
to be defeated? And what is next for Iran? You
(22:16):
know we talk about, well the regimes changed, but we
don't know into what yet. What are your thoughts?
Speaker 10 (22:22):
Well, you're right, I did have spoken about it for decades,
and I try to try to persuade successive American administrations
to take firm action. And President Trump and is first
and did. He got out of the disastrous Hiron deal
right off the bat, and he did everything he could
(22:42):
to prevent them from going into the nuclear program that
they seek to build atomic bombs to threaten US and
you and ultimately to attack both of us and to
destroy as much as they can. Because this is what
these people do. They basically are in the business of
mass death. Right to call them a difficult I worked
with several presidents. I always appreciated the fact that we
(23:07):
had well, forthright discussions. Often we agreed, but often we didn't.
We disagreed, and I appreciate it. We kept the alliance going.
But I want to tell you something. I'm not a youngster,
so I've been around. There's never been a president like
Donald J.
Speaker 4 (23:24):
Trump.
Speaker 10 (23:25):
His resoluteness, his decisiveness, his clarity of thinking, the way
he gets things gets right to the crux of things.
It cuts through all the fluff, cuts through the chase,
gets down to the main point, and he gets down
to the main action that needs to be taken. And
I think, I think for Israel, and I think for
(23:47):
the countries of the free world.
Speaker 4 (23:49):
Let me tell you I think for the world.
Speaker 10 (23:51):
It is we're very lucky to have him as the
leader of the free world and in fact the leader
of the world. He's brought America back to be the
leader of the world, and it makes a huge difference.
And I can tell talking to America's allies in the region,
just one by one by one, and I can't quote
from these conversations, but I can tell you they all
(24:13):
share this, and they all say, thank God that Donald
Trump is here, thank God that you act. The two
of you are acting together to remove this threat not
only to you, but to US and Iran to today
just bomb bombed with these ballistic missiles, these weapons of
mass death, these weapons of terror. They're terror weapons. They
(24:33):
bombed all these countries. They bombed Cyprus, which is Europe.
I've said, they won't take very long. They're bombing us,
they're bombing Europe. And when they developed the intercontinental ballistic
missiles and the nuclear wars to fit on these nuclear
on these ballistic missiles, they'll threaten you and eventually they'll
bomb you. This is what President Trump understood, and alone
(24:55):
among US presidents that I've worked with, he took action.
Speaker 4 (24:59):
And that we're all very very lucky that he did.
Speaker 9 (25:05):
I think that history will through the prism of history,
he will be viewed very favorably by recognizing a threat
in the last century. You're a historian, mister Prime Minister.
You know between Mao China, Stalin Russia, Hitler Germany, Mussolini
fascism Tojo Japan, pol Pot the killing fields estimated over
(25:26):
one hundred million human souls slaughtered in the name of
some ism. Now we see the President and at Prime
Minister partnering together to stop a threat before it emerges
and becomes unstoppable, which I got to give you both
so much credit for. It is transformational, it is consequential.
(25:48):
I guess I want to look forward a little bit
we had in his first term, the Abraham Accords. I
know that there are countries in your region of the
world that have been looking for a window of opportunity.
I'm talking about the likes of Saudi Arabia and the
(26:08):
UAE and Dubai and Egypt and Jordan, etc. Do you
see a path to a long lasting peace in the
region which we've not seen in forever.
Speaker 4 (26:23):
Yes, I do.
Speaker 10 (26:24):
In fact, I hear the people are taking we're going
to have an endless war here. You're not going to
have an endless war, because there's a point with that
we've been and Iran. This terror regime in Iran is
the weakest point that it's been here since it hijacked
Iran from the brave Iranian people forty seven years ago.
Speaker 4 (26:43):
So this is going to.
Speaker 10 (26:45):
Be a quick and decisive action, and we're going to
create the conditions first for the Uranian people to get
control of their destiny, to form their own democratically elected government,
which will make Iran a different Iran altogether, because Iran
has been the main engine of war.
Speaker 4 (27:02):
Over these years.
Speaker 10 (27:03):
It's just ninety five percent of all the problems you
see in the Middle East are generated by Iran, and
the worldwide terr network that they built is generated and
orchestrated from Iran.
Speaker 4 (27:15):
So when you take away Iran, we.
Speaker 10 (27:17):
Let the people of Iran have the opportunity to act
to liberate themselves, free themselves from the yoke of this
terror machine. You get a different future. I think that
will open up the way for many peace treaties with
other Arab countries, with Muslim countries. I think it changes
the world now. Of course, it's up to the people
of Iran in the final count to change the government.
(27:39):
But we are creating America and Israel together are creating
the conditions for them to do so. I think that
if we go through what we plan to do, I
think it will create conditions for peace. This is not
an endless war. This is, in fact something that will
usher in an era of peace that we haven't even
dreamed of.
Speaker 9 (28:00):
Minister, I think history will study this military effort and
it'll be, as I said, be studied for centuries. But
you know, also, you took out their air defense systems,
their missile defense system, ballistic missile systems. You know, you
got the ten top guys in Hamas, you got Nusralla
(28:20):
who'd been in power for thirty some odd years. You
had the Pager incident. Donald Trump dropped fourteen bunker buster
bombs and took out and obliterated their nuclear facilities. I mean,
I know there's war colleges. Just all of these incidents
combined will be a lifetime worth of study in my view,
(28:43):
And I want to ask you this. You know there
are people that say, well, the Prime Minister of Israel
dragged Donald Trump into it, and as somebody that's been
friends with him over thirty years, nobody drags Donald Trump
into anything, number one.
Speaker 2 (28:56):
But I want to get your reaction to that.
Speaker 10 (29:01):
Well, you're right, I mean, that's ridiculous. Donald Trump is
the strongest leader in the world. He does what he
thinks is right for America. He does also what he
thinks is right for future generations. And frankly, we're partners
in that effort because I've devoted my life to securing
the life of the one and only Jewish state. And
(29:23):
believe me, it's been a struggle.
Speaker 2 (29:25):
All Right.
Speaker 1 (29:25):
That was Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Att Yah all right,
Hannity tonight, nine Eastern on the Fox News Channel, as
we now took out the next round of leadership in Iran,
as they were trying to pick the next supreme leader.
Everyone in one building, they all got taken out. Today
Jack Keem will analyze that. Senator John Kennedy, General David
(29:48):
Petraeus tonight, say dbr tonight, Hannity nine Eastern on Fox.
We'll see then back here tomorrow. Thank you for making
this show possible.
All right, News Round Up, Information Overload hour here on
(00:02):
the Sean Hannity Show, Toll free. It's eight hundred and
nine point one, Shawn, if you want to be a
part of the program. In spite of just what has
been spectacular success in this joint mission with the United States,
Donald Trump and the Prime Minister of Israel will play
part of my interview with bb net Yahoo coming up.
The Democrats, but remember, the one thing they can have
(00:26):
is for Donald Trump to be successful, so they have
to cheer for American failure. They don't want the economy
to recover the way it's recovering, and they're hoping it
doesn't recover anymore. It's a horrible position for anybody to
be in, but it is what it is. And in
the case of this effort, you know, to prevent the
(00:49):
Iranians from getting a nuclear weapon to hold the world hostage,
here's a team Jeffries, he is the minority leader in
name only, appealing to the radical based squad.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
You know this is going to be a failure. It'll
end in failure.
Speaker 3 (01:03):
Listen, the American people want us to focus on making
their life better, making their life more affordable, not getting
involved in another endless war in the Middle East that
is going to end in failure.
Speaker 1 (01:15):
Now, this affordability thing is not working out too well
for the Democrats. As interest rates are down, inflation is down,
gas prices have been down. They may go up temporarily
a little bit because of the disruption of the free
flow of oil at market prices, but that will change
rather quickly. But you know, on every measure, job creation,
(01:36):
everything in between, and trillions and new investments in manufacturing.
Now things are getting a lot better, but not that
he wants us to or or is cheering for American success.
Over on that hard hitting news show, the view Sunny
Houstin is out there saying Iran war is an illegal,
un constitutional war.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
No it's not. But listen, I'm gonna say. You know,
the bottom line is that this is an illegal war.
This is an unconstitutional war.
Speaker 1 (02:04):
Only Congress can wait war in the war presidential war. Now,
let's just take a trip down memory lane, and when
Barack Obama and Joe Biden were involved in conflicts around
the world, not one Democrat ever called for the War
Powers Act. That they just they don't want Donald Trump
to be successful. Here's Nancy Pelosi saying, oh, there's no
(02:25):
need for this.
Speaker 4 (02:27):
Let me speaking a madam leader.
Speaker 5 (02:29):
You're saying that the president did not need authorization initially
and still does not need.
Speaker 4 (02:35):
Any authorization from Congress one Libya.
Speaker 1 (02:38):
Yes, yes, of course, only Donald Trump does because we
hate him, we don't like him. John Brennan. I've been
hearing from sources now for weeks on end that he
may be on the verge of some indictment. We'll see
if in fact my sources end up being correct. Him
out there attacking the Trump administration saying that they're making
(03:00):
things up to justify the Iranian attack. They're not making
things up. They are looking at the stark reality is
that the Iranians, and you can actually see satellite imaging
that proves it. We're reconstituting their ballistic missiles program and
then nuclear program, as evidence by the interview that I
(03:23):
had with Steve Wikoff, the Middle East envoy involved in
the negotiations. But doesn't stop John Brennan from just being
the wire propagandas that I think he's always been.
Speaker 6 (03:32):
Now we're going ahead and carrying out this major attack
against a very large country, Iran, which is much larger
than Iraq, and there's a lot of history here obviously,
in the region and so on. But what we've seen
in the past several days is devastating attacks against Iran
and the Iranian government. The Iranian regime is not relenting
this point, and that's why they're throwing everything they have
(03:56):
at nearby targets, whether it be us Basis or the
Goldferrips whatever. This is such a tragic, tragic, senseless and
needless loss of life that we're seeing right now. As
Senator mar Warter said, there was no imminent threat. Clearly,
I think the administration is now making things up in
order to try to.
Speaker 4 (04:15):
Justify what's happening.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
Okay, you know, just ignore all all sense of reality
and truth. And by the way, they're not relenting. No,
they're dead, you idiot. I mean, how stupid can you be?
Marco Rubio responds to all of this and slamming the
media for questioning the reasons for this operation in Iran.
Speaker 4 (04:38):
I haven't got a.
Speaker 7 (04:38):
Chance to see a lot of reporting. I don't understand
what the confusion is. Let me explain it to you,
and I'll do it once again as clearly as possible.
Speaker 4 (04:46):
Perhaps you'll report it that way.
Speaker 7 (04:48):
The United States is conducting an operation to eliminate the
threat of Iran's short range ballistic missiles and the threat
caused by their navy. It's particularly to enable assets. That
is what it is focused on doing right now, and
it's doing quite successfully.
Speaker 4 (05:01):
I'll leave it to the Pentagon.
Speaker 7 (05:03):
And the Department of Ward discussed the tactics behind that
in the progress that's being made. That is the clear
objective of this mission. The second question they've been asked
is why now. Well, if there's two reasons, why now.
The first is it was abundantly clear that if Iran
came under attack by anyone, the United States or Israel
or anyone, they were going to respond and respond against
the United States.
Speaker 4 (05:23):
The orders had.
Speaker 7 (05:24):
Been delegated down to the field commanders. It was automatic,
and in fact it bare to be true because, in fact,
within an hour of the initial attack on the Leadership Compound,
the missile forces in the South and in the North
for that matter, had already been activated to launch, in fact,
those that already been prepositioned. The third is the assessment
(05:44):
that was made that if we stood and waited for
that attack to come first before we hit them, we
would suffer much higher casualties, and so the President made
the very wise decision. We knew that there was going
to be an Israeli action, We knew that that would
precipitate an attack against America forces, and we knew that
if we didn't preemptibly go after them before they launched
those attacks, we would suffer higher casualties and perhaps even
(06:07):
highre those killed, and then we would all be here
answering questions about why we knew that and didn't.
Speaker 1 (06:13):
I mean, Marco is just a rock star. He's killing it,
he's crushing it anyway, joining us now. Jack Carr, retired
Navy seal, author of the upcoming book out in May,
The Fourth Option, gives his military analysis of what's happening.
I think the opening thirty seconds that we saw and witnessed,
and the entire they decapitated the head of the leadership
(06:37):
in Iran, I think was something that you know, will
be studied, as I said to Steve Wikkoff, for decades
and probably the next hundred and fifty two hundred years.
I said that to BB two. And I'm looking at
all of this, and I'm looking at the other news
of the day, and it's like Okay, So now the
remaining Iranian leaders meet to pick a new leader, and
(06:59):
all of those people were taken out today.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
I've never seen anything like this in my life.
Speaker 5 (07:03):
Yeah, it's quite remarkable. It just speaks to obviously our
intelligence services, the level of penetration we have within the
regime or former regime at this point. So it is
quite remarkable and will be studied, as you said, for
decades here to come. But the whole attack really is
a long time coming in my opinion here and I
(07:25):
mean I'm of the age where are Some of my
first memories are of the nineteen seventy nine hostage crisis.
I was in Catholic school at the time. They marched
us all to Chapel and we prayed for the hostages.
And then of course the Marine Corps headquarters in Barracks
bombing in nineteen eighty three. That was very impactful to
a kid who's I'm already on my path into the military.
And I see this on Time and newsweek and all
(07:45):
over the news, and I even wrote my first nonfiction
book about it, it's called Targeted. But for a lot
of us who served in Iraq and Afghanistan, we're understandably,
I think skeptical when we hear words like regime change WMD,
just with the wounds and memories and lessons being so fresh.
But that being said, Iraq and Iran comparison that everyone's making,
it's not apples to apples. Every situation obviously is different
(08:09):
and requires that you adapt to it, especially in the
middle of combat operations where the enemy always gets the vote,
situations chaotic, dynamic, there's a host of variables that you
can't predict, and there will of course be unintended consequences.
There always are. What's important now, I think, is that
we adapt to those unintended consequences, to the ever changing
environment on the battlefield. And we're very good at doing
(08:29):
that tactically on the ground in Iraq. In Afghanistan, very
good at that. But our senior military leaders, elected representatives,
appointed executives across government, they were not over those twenty
years where were in Afghanistan and all those years we
were interact there, are very slow to adapt as they
adapted at all. And everyone remembers how we went from
WMD to regime changed to nation building to counter insurgency efforts,
(08:50):
all while nation building hampered by in that strategic decisions
like dispanding the Iraqi Army depasification, which essentially created the
insurgency supported by Iran where the insert has had a
safe haven across the border where we couldn't go, and
that's where they could build their EFPs, which were the
explosively formed penetrators which could defeat our armor. But the
question is, when I hear all the opposing views of
(09:12):
what we're doing right now, is how close to developing
a nuclear weapon do you allow a hostile authoritarian regime
whose organizing principle has been death to America since nineteen
seventy nine? How close do you allow them to get
to developing that weapon five years, two years, one year,
six months, a week before you eliminate that threat and
(09:32):
we can go back to We all remember Al Qaeda
they declared war on us nineteen ninety six, nineteen ninety eight,
embassy bombings in Tanzania and Kenya, the USS coal, and
we still didn't take them seriously, even though they were
very clear that they had declared war on US, and
we treated it as a law enforcement matter all the
way up until September eleventh, two thousand and one. So
(09:53):
there are examples in the pages of history. And let's
go to nineteen eighty three really quick is and now
there's a host of res I'd like to go back
to the eighties. I think that's the greatest decade in
the history of mankind. But there are lessons from nineteen
eighty three Beirut and when our headquarters and barracks were
bombed in October of nineteen eighty three, two hundred and
(10:15):
forty one servicemen killed, the largest number of Marines killed
SINCEI Rejima in World War Two. The lesson that the
enemy took from that was that terrorism works. And what
Iran took from that specifically is that terrorism through proxy's work.
Because there was a lot of tough talk out of
the administration at the time, and then we left very
quietly in early nineteen eighty four. So there's a direct
line between the inept response in nineteen eighty three nineteen
(10:39):
eighty four to September eleventh and beyond.
Speaker 1 (10:42):
All right, quick break, final moments. Jack Carr is with
US retired Navy seal author of the upcoming book out
in May, the Fourth Option, giving his military analysis of
what has been going on inside of Iran and this massive,
overwhelming show of force and victory by the US Armed Services.
Speaker 8 (11:08):
You know, now that the adults are back in office,
maybe we can get some work done around here. Are
you ready?
Speaker 4 (11:15):
Welcome back, President Trump.
Speaker 8 (11:18):
This is the Sean Hannity Show, right, we continue now.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
Jack Harror is with us.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
He's a retired Navy seal, author of the upcoming book
it's out in May, The Fourth Option, giving his military
analysis of what is happening on the ground in Iran
and the credible work of the US military, in the
might of the US military, and the vision of the
President in this entire issue, in the moral clarity he's showing.
(12:10):
I know it's beyond comprehension. But what we learned from
Steve Witkoff, the Middle East envoy, who, along with Jared Kushner,
was trying to negotiate a deal with the Iranians under
the principle that Donald Trump played out, which is they
cannot have nuclear weapons. They offered the Iranians low level
enriched Uranian for civilian purposes, only that not only would
(12:33):
they allow them to have that, but they would allow
them to have it for free, and they'd allow them
to have it for free, and perpetuity, and they rejected
that deal, which shows that they were clinging to their
nuclear ambitions to the very end. And now that leadership's
been wiped out, I mean just wiped out.
Speaker 5 (12:52):
Cold, clearly, clearly, and if they're not going to take
that deal, that they're not going to take any deal,
and it's just a stall tactic till they can get
to a point where they actually have developed this nuclear weapon.
Speaker 1 (13:06):
And you can see the satellite imagery they were reconstituting
their ballistic missiles programs, which Donald Trump mentioned on day one,
and the same with the nuclear program, and you can
see the images proving that that was all true.
Speaker 5 (13:21):
Yep. In every administration really from nineteen seventy nine on,
were multiple administrations, both parties. They've had that same pillar
of US foreign policy, which is not allowing a rand
to have a nuclear weapon. That is a red line
in the sand. They've all had different ways they've tried
to deal with Well.
Speaker 1 (13:35):
Well, it wasn't for Biden and it wasn't for Obama.
I mean, they were delivering cargo planes full of cash
and of the currency to try and bribe them out
of it.
Speaker 5 (13:44):
That is very true. And now we have this administration
where you have people in positions within the administration thats
are that's served on the ground in Iraq and Afghanistan.
They remember those same lessons that I do. They remember
being there on the ground, and they remember what our sene,
your level leaders did and essentially putting us in harm's way,
that making us targets and also allowing the worldwide Jihatis
(14:08):
to point to us as the infidels and use that
as a propaganda tool. That they were very effective at
doing that, much more effective than we will in encountering it.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
Let me, let me bring up one thing that I
think needs to be said, and that is this idea
of endless wars, as as the Prime Minister bb Nenyahu said, No,
it's not going to be an endless war, but it's
it's not part of the Trump doctrine. There's not going
to be boots on the ground, not going to be
an endless war.
Speaker 6 (14:34):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (14:34):
This will end with the Iranian people having an opportunity
to change their destiny, perhaps once in a generation opportunity,
as the President said, and the threat of a nuclear
armed Iran, the chance death to Israel and America is gone,
and they won't have any nuclear power for the foreseeable future, unless,
of course, you know, another regime similar to the one
(14:57):
that just got killed comes back in power.
Speaker 5 (15:00):
It seems that they're taking those lessons in the past
applying them to the present problems set as wisdom, which
is really all we can hope for. It seems like
the days of if you break it, you buy it,
the Colon Powell pottery bound barn rule is not in
play anymore. Seems like nation building is not in play anymore,
and putting us on the ground as targets essentially is
(15:21):
not in the way that we do.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
Those days are over.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
The days of sending kids door to door, you know,
stepping over IEDs without up armored Humby's those days. We'll
never going back to those days. And I predict future
wars are going to be fought from air conditioned offices.
We're seeing the beginning of those days right now, and
it's only going to get more sophisticated over time. I
could talk to you all day, Jack Carr, really appreciate
(15:46):
your retired Navy seal.
Speaker 2 (15:48):
Thanks so much for being with us. We do appreciate you.
Speaker 5 (15:51):
Thanks for having me on you take care all right.
Speaker 1 (15:53):
So last night I had the Prime Minister of Israel.
This is a joint operation the Israeli IDF and America's
military might, and what they have been able to accomplish
is beyond spectacular. But anyway, here's my interview with the
Prime Minister of Israel, Benjamin and Yahoo joining us. Now
(16:14):
is the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin at Yahoo. Mister Prime Minister,
thank you for being here. I know you probably have
gotten very little sleep in the last number of days.
Why now, what precipitated this moment at this time?
Speaker 9 (16:31):
I know you have talked about it. We've known each
other thirty thirty five maybe more years. And why at
this point was this necessary?
Speaker 10 (16:40):
Well, the first thing to understand is why it's necessary
at any time. Iran for forty seven years has been
chanting death to America, death to Israel too. But you're
the big Satan, We're the small Statan. Death to America.
They've murdered and named thousands of Americans in Iraq and Afghanistan,
their IEDs, these roadside bombs, they bombed your embassies. They
(17:06):
try to assassinate Donald Trump, the President of the United States, twice.
They've murdered their own people. They massacred so many, and
they spread a worldwide web of terror. So this is
a regime committed to destroying the United States of America.
It's the only country and the planet that says so
openly and works tirelessly to achieve that goal. The reason
(17:30):
that we had to act now is because they were
after we hit their nuclear sites and their ballistic missiles program.
You'd think they learned a lesson, but they didn't because
they're unreformable. They're totally fanatic about this, about the goal
of destroying America. So they started building new sites, new
(17:50):
places underground bunkers that would make their ballistic missile program
and their atomic bomb program immune within months. No action
was taken now, no action could be taken in the future,
and then they could target America. They could blackmail America,
they could threaten US and threaten everyone in between. So
(18:11):
action had to be taken, and you needed the resolute
president like Donald J.
Speaker 4 (18:15):
Trump to take that action. And we are his very
strong and.
Speaker 10 (18:21):
Able partners, and our alliance today is so strong. We
had to take the action now, and we did. Otherwise
the Iranian mass murder regime would have immunity from future action.
Speaker 9 (18:33):
Steve Whitkoff made this statement the Middle Eastern Envoy. We
made it last week that they absolutely are clinging to
their ability to build out a nuclear weapons program. And
the President, as he said he wanted a peace deal,
gave them every opportunity for peace like they did before
(18:54):
Operation Midnight Hammer, and they steadfastly refused in the first
the first thirty seconds. I've never seen anything like this
in my life. The supreme leader, the Ayatola Ali Hamane
and his top forty leaders were wiped out, Aquadtajade among them.
That is incredible intelligence. And wow, I'm sure this will
(19:18):
be studied for centuries to come, not decades.
Speaker 10 (19:22):
Well, you know when America the indispensable ally for Israel
and the greatest part of the world in Israel, America's
model ally is the National Security Council just called it.
When we worked together, amazing things happened. We worked together,
and amazing things happened. But I have to tell you
(19:42):
that it wouldn't happen without the leadership of President Trump because.
Speaker 4 (19:47):
He just you know, I met him in mar Lago.
Speaker 10 (19:52):
You may remember this because I think you live close
by and I saw you at that time right before
I was a reelection, okay, and or before he was
inaugurated the second time and we met. We met in
mar Lagum, and the first thing that Donald Trump said
to me, he said, you know, we have to prevent
(20:13):
Iran from getting nukes, as simple as that. He said
that because he saw that as a clear and present
danger to the security and wellbeing of the United States.
To have a regime like that, so fanatic that it
just defines itself by destroying America, exporting revolution, exporting terrorism,
(20:34):
exporting the worst Islamist fanaticism that attacks Arabs, attacks Israelis,
attacks Americans, attacks everyone inside.
Speaker 4 (20:43):
They just fired.
Speaker 10 (20:44):
Now they're in sight around the police, including Cyprus in Europe.
To have a regime like that that plans to eradicate
the United States have the weapons of mass death would
have been the greatest threat that America would face in
the coming decades. And so he said to me right
off the bat. I didn't say to him. He said
(21:04):
to me, we have to make sure they never get
the nukes. And that's what he did. We tried first
to take them out in Midnight Hammer and the Rising
Line operation, and we took out their missile sites. But
then they started again their missile and nuclear sites. They
didn't learn the lesson. He tried to get negotiations. He
negotiated with them, they didn't get it. They tried to
(21:25):
string them along. So action had to be taken, and
we took it.
Speaker 9 (21:30):
President Trump repeated over and over and over again, and
I would argue that the leadership that is now dead
was a death cult and an existential threat, not just
to the region, not just to Israel, death to Israel,
death to America. But I am very convinced that have
been convinced that you have been for decades that if
(21:52):
they ever got nuclear weapons, that they would you know,
along with their fanaticism, it would cause them to use it.
That is what that death cult would cause them to do.
Is this now the culmination of decades of your work
and your belief and your passion that these radicals needed
to be defeated? And what is next for Iran? You
(22:16):
know we talk about, well the regimes changed, but we
don't know into what yet. What are your thoughts?
Speaker 10 (22:22):
Well, you're right, I did have spoken about it for decades,
and I try to try to persuade successive American administrations
to take firm action. And President Trump and is first
and did. He got out of the disastrous Hiron deal
right off the bat, and he did everything he could
(22:42):
to prevent them from going into the nuclear program that
they seek to build atomic bombs to threaten US and
you and ultimately to attack both of us and to
destroy as much as they can. Because this is what
these people do. They basically are in the business of
mass death. Right to call them a difficult I worked
with several presidents. I always appreciated the fact that we
(23:07):
had well, forthright discussions. Often we agreed, but often we didn't.
We disagreed, and I appreciate it. We kept the alliance going.
But I want to tell you something. I'm not a youngster,
so I've been around. There's never been a president like
Donald J.
Speaker 4 (23:24):
Trump.
Speaker 10 (23:25):
His resoluteness, his decisiveness, his clarity of thinking, the way
he gets things gets right to the crux of things.
It cuts through all the fluff, cuts through the chase,
gets down to the main point, and he gets down
to the main action that needs to be taken. And
I think, I think for Israel, and I think for
(23:47):
the countries of the free world.
Speaker 4 (23:49):
Let me tell you I think for the world.
Speaker 10 (23:51):
It is we're very lucky to have him as the
leader of the free world and in fact the leader
of the world. He's brought America back to be the
leader of the world, and it makes a huge difference.
And I can tell talking to America's allies in the region,
just one by one by one, and I can't quote
from these conversations, but I can tell you they all
(24:13):
share this, and they all say, thank God that Donald
Trump is here, thank God that you act. The two
of you are acting together to remove this threat not
only to you, but to US and Iran to today
just bomb bombed with these ballistic missiles, these weapons of
mass death, these weapons of terror. They're terror weapons. They
(24:33):
bombed all these countries. They bombed Cyprus, which is Europe.
I've said, they won't take very long. They're bombing us,
they're bombing Europe. And when they developed the intercontinental ballistic
missiles and the nuclear wars to fit on these nuclear
on these ballistic missiles, they'll threaten you and eventually they'll
bomb you. This is what President Trump understood, and alone
(24:55):
among US presidents that I've worked with, he took action.
Speaker 4 (24:59):
And that we're all very very lucky that he did.
Speaker 9 (25:05):
I think that history will through the prism of history,
he will be viewed very favorably by recognizing a threat
in the last century. You're a historian, mister Prime Minister.
You know between Mao China, Stalin Russia, Hitler Germany, Mussolini
fascism Tojo Japan, pol Pot the killing fields estimated over
(25:26):
one hundred million human souls slaughtered in the name of
some ism. Now we see the President and at Prime
Minister partnering together to stop a threat before it emerges
and becomes unstoppable, which I got to give you both
so much credit for. It is transformational, it is consequential.
(25:48):
I guess I want to look forward a little bit
we had in his first term, the Abraham Accords. I
know that there are countries in your region of the
world that have been looking for a window of opportunity.
I'm talking about the likes of Saudi Arabia and the
(26:08):
UAE and Dubai and Egypt and Jordan, etc. Do you
see a path to a long lasting peace in the
region which we've not seen in forever.
Speaker 4 (26:23):
Yes, I do.
Speaker 10 (26:24):
In fact, I hear the people are taking we're going
to have an endless war here. You're not going to
have an endless war, because there's a point with that
we've been and Iran. This terror regime in Iran is
the weakest point that it's been here since it hijacked
Iran from the brave Iranian people forty seven years ago.
Speaker 4 (26:43):
So this is going to.
Speaker 10 (26:45):
Be a quick and decisive action, and we're going to
create the conditions first for the Uranian people to get
control of their destiny, to form their own democratically elected government,
which will make Iran a different Iran altogether, because Iran
has been the main engine of war.
Speaker 4 (27:02):
Over these years.
Speaker 10 (27:03):
It's just ninety five percent of all the problems you
see in the Middle East are generated by Iran, and
the worldwide terr network that they built is generated and
orchestrated from Iran.
Speaker 4 (27:15):
So when you take away Iran, we.
Speaker 10 (27:17):
Let the people of Iran have the opportunity to act
to liberate themselves, free themselves from the yoke of this
terror machine. You get a different future. I think that
will open up the way for many peace treaties with
other Arab countries, with Muslim countries. I think it changes
the world now. Of course, it's up to the people
of Iran in the final count to change the government.
(27:39):
But we are creating America and Israel together are creating
the conditions for them to do so. I think that
if we go through what we plan to do, I
think it will create conditions for peace. This is not
an endless war. This is, in fact something that will
usher in an era of peace that we haven't even
dreamed of.
Speaker 9 (28:00):
Minister, I think history will study this military effort and
it'll be, as I said, be studied for centuries. But
you know, also, you took out their air defense systems,
their missile defense system, ballistic missile systems. You know, you
got the ten top guys in Hamas, you got Nusralla
(28:20):
who'd been in power for thirty some odd years. You
had the Pager incident. Donald Trump dropped fourteen bunker buster
bombs and took out and obliterated their nuclear facilities. I mean,
I know there's war colleges. Just all of these incidents
combined will be a lifetime worth of study in my view,
(28:43):
And I want to ask you this. You know there
are people that say, well, the Prime Minister of Israel
dragged Donald Trump into it, and as somebody that's been
friends with him over thirty years, nobody drags Donald Trump
into anything, number one.
Speaker 2 (28:56):
But I want to get your reaction to that.
Speaker 10 (29:01):
Well, you're right, I mean, that's ridiculous. Donald Trump is
the strongest leader in the world. He does what he
thinks is right for America. He does also what he
thinks is right for future generations. And frankly, we're partners
in that effort because I've devoted my life to securing
the life of the one and only Jewish state. And
(29:23):
believe me, it's been a struggle.
Speaker 2 (29:25):
All Right.
Speaker 1 (29:25):
That was Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Att Yah all right,
Hannity tonight, nine Eastern on the Fox News Channel, as
we now took out the next round of leadership in Iran,
as they were trying to pick the next supreme leader.
Everyone in one building, they all got taken out. Today
Jack Keem will analyze that. Senator John Kennedy, General David
(29:48):
Petraeus tonight, say dbr tonight, Hannity nine Eastern on Fox.
We'll see then back here tomorrow. Thank you for making
this show possible.
