Alright. Welcome to hot seat, Grant f
1:05
Smith. No.
1:06
I'm skinned. Hey. Hey, everybody
1:08
on the line. I got the great Grant Smith.
1:11
He's my good buddy, and he wrote hundred books
1:13
about the Israel lobby in there, above
1:15
board and below board activities in the
1:17
United States of America, including ceiling
1:19
weapons, crazy uranium, and nuclear
1:22
triggers, and all of that.
1:23
And what
1:24
he is is he's the director
1:26
of the Institute for Research
1:29
Middle Eastern Policy, that's ear map,
1:32
IRMEP ear map dot
1:34
org. And what you do is just go to Google

or your favorite search engine, and
1:38
type in site colon,
1:41
IRMEP dot org space
1:44
dot pdf. and
1:45
see what you get. because
1:47
what he does is he suits some
1:49
of the Freedom of Information Act and
1:52
uses other avenues to get
1:54
his hands on primary source
1:56
documents to tell the true
1:58
history
1:59
of the Israel
1:59
lobby and what in that they
2:02
get away within this country, which is just
2:04
about beyond belief. So
2:06
welcome back to the show, my friend, Grant. How are you?
2:08
Hey, Scott. Great to be back. Thanks
2:10
for the great intro
2:12
and it is true that we're spending
2:15
a lot of time in our budget getting
2:17
documents to Foya and it's
2:19
been tough couple years because
2:22
it just kinda got slow there during
2:24
COVID, but we're back on track. Alright.
2:26
Well, good. Again,
2:28
that's IRMEP dot
2:30
org. And also check
2:32
out all of Grant's books at Amazon.
2:34
There's a bunch of them, and they're great. So
2:36
listen,
2:39
I gotta ask you first of all about
2:41
the return of Benjamin Netanyahu
2:43
to the prime ministerness over there
2:45
in Israel
2:47
and
2:48
especially his alliance
2:51
some of these
2:53
Thank you very much. Further right
2:56
parties. Yeah. Israel.
2:59
Can you please give us a low down on what has
3:01
happened here in what
3:02
you think it means for the near term? Well,
3:05
I mean, he's that Yahoo has
3:07
basically made common cause
3:10
with one of the most extreme politicians,
3:13
Ben Veyer, who has been, you
3:15
know, kind of a
3:18
cock party light. I'm sorry.
3:20
What's his name again?
3:21
the
3:22
Ben Gavir. Okay. Just
3:24
you said it fast. I wanna make sure we're clear because this
3:26
is a new character for a lot of us here. Yeah.
3:29
And he's from the what party and is what's
3:31
so what about him? I don't
3:32
I don't know that I can name the party,
3:35
but thing that was important
3:37
to me and struck me was that he was a big
3:39
supporter of the
3:41
terrorists who killed a bunch of trying
3:44
Palestinians with a machine gun
3:46
back in the nineties and
3:48
was, you
3:49
know, basically have the guy's portrait on
3:51
his wall until he was finally
3:54
convinced to take it down. But this this
3:56
is a hardcore pro
3:59
the ethnic cleansing job,
4:02
push all the Palestinians out of the
4:04
West Bank. If you can get away with it, type
4:08
radical who is
4:10
going to be taking some sort
4:12
of extremely important position within
4:14
the Netanyahu administration I
4:17
think you know, he's so unpalatable
4:20
that even the Biden administration is
4:23
trying to distance itself
4:25
from him And,
4:27
you
4:27
know, they've had the ambassador,
4:30
Tom Knight's, US
4:32
ambassador to Israel,
4:35
basically say that they're not gonna
4:37
accept any sort of annexation. They're
4:39
kind of putting out
4:41
some unusually strong
4:43
statements
4:44
for
4:45
the usually completely
4:47
in Israel's pockets Joe
4:50
Biden and
4:52
kind of putting up some
4:54
red flags that they don't want to see
4:56
crossed. But, you
4:57
know, as I I was talking to Eric
5:00
Harris a few days ago, We
5:02
don't really follow Israeli
5:04
elections as much as we follow
5:06
Israel's interventions
5:09
in our elections through
5:11
the for
5:12
an influence operation that they set
5:15
up in this country, now known as APAC.
5:17
So you
5:19
know, there's some there's some great Israeli
5:21
journalists who are
5:23
basically asking
5:25
their western contacts for information
5:27
and sponsorship of immigrating
5:29
at this point over this. Oh,
5:32
man.
5:33
Well, Yeah.
5:34
I mean, it's really important that,
5:37
you
5:37
know, the the
5:39
party
5:40
of
5:42
old rabbi
5:44
Khane -- Right.
5:45
-- who was assassinated by
5:48
Egyptian islamicahat in New York in
5:50
nineteen ninety.
5:51
Yes. His party was banned by
5:53
the Israeli Supreme Court for
5:55
being quote fascist.
5:57
And he said, like, yeah, if you guys are so far
5:59
to the right
5:59
that you're
6:01
demanding the expulsion of
6:03
the millions of Palestinians remaining
6:06
on the West Bank under Israeli control
6:08
there.
6:08
that's that's just too far it's illegal
6:11
for you to be a political party in
6:13
Israel. So this guy just
6:14
changed their name and has the same policy
6:17
essentially, but comes
6:19
from that same spectrum. And
6:21
that's really something because Israel's a pretty right wing
6:23
society overall anyway.
6:25
So, you know, politically. So
6:27
when it comes to a guy
6:29
like this being too distasteful,
6:32
like, wow, he really did
6:34
something wrong. You know? Exactly.
6:36
And, you know, it's but,
6:39
you know, it the
6:40
US has kinda helped precipitate this
6:43
situation by, I
6:45
would say, erroneously removing
6:47
the CAC Party from the
6:50
FBI list of terrorist
6:53
organizations because they clearly were a
6:55
terrorist organization. So
6:57
the US you know, it needs
6:59
to stop doing things like that if it
7:01
wants to be seen as any sort of
7:03
honest broker, which it's
7:05
never been, but
7:08
Yeah. It's, you know, the US
7:10
I'm sure they'll find a way some modus
7:13
Vivendi and miss
7:15
Thomas Nies, although he's saying,
7:17
no annexation was also
7:19
quick to
7:20
phone Netanyahu and congratulate him
7:22
and all of that. So they're you
7:24
know, both sides are gonna be working over time
7:26
to paper over, what's
7:28
going on. And so
7:31
I I don't expect too
7:33
much more other than this
7:35
recent sort of, you
7:38
know, red flag that's been
7:40
thrown down. Yeah. Well,
7:41
and, you know,
7:43
that's the thing. It shouldn't obscure the real
7:45
controversy, which is, oh, god.
7:48
Benjamin Netanyahu is back.
7:50
just
7:50
when he was not there.
7:53
Now here he is again. But, you
7:55
know, I did read that this guy, I
7:57
guess, it's not settled yet. But
8:00
If he takes his presumed position,
8:02
he'll have control over the temple mount.
8:04
Right.
8:04
So he's like, oh, good. I'm gonna start.
8:07
sacrifice in animals and bring on the
8:09
second comment to all this now. Okay. He's
8:11
like that yeah. He's gonna see his great political
8:14
sort of benefit
8:16
to stirring up the
8:18
temple mount and
8:20
and talking about, you know, all
8:22
of this replacing the
8:25
film
8:25
with a rock with the the temple and
8:27
all of that. So it's, you know, he's clearly
8:29
a bomb thrower and
8:32
clearly, you
8:34
know, really respects some real
8:36
bomb plot throwers. So, you
8:38
know, that doesn't make it too different
8:40
than some of Israel's former prime
8:42
ministers who were basically in
8:44
terrorist organizations back in the
8:46
day. So, you know, they've kind of got a history
8:48
of this. And
8:51
I'm sure though it'll be paperred over. So
8:53
-- Yeah.
8:53
-- we'll we'll just have to see. Alright.
8:56
Well, anyway, I know your specialty
8:58
is the
8:59
Israel lobby in the United States.
9:01
But of course, it's a huge part of
9:03
how
9:03
Israel could be run by such a
9:05
bunch of right wing cooks if they just had to
9:07
deal with the European Union or whatever, they
9:09
would have insisted long ago that you guys
9:12
move left or lose support. And
9:13
-- Yeah. But with the Americans, they
9:15
just got our Congress completely locked
9:17
stock and barrel. And I don't know how much of
9:20
it is blackmail mean, we
9:22
know from Edward
9:23
Snowden and Glen Greenwald
9:25
and the Guardian that
9:26
the
9:27
NSA turns over their entire hall
9:29
to Israel every day. Yeah.
9:32
That's amazing. And, you know, they're They
9:34
don't even need Jeffrey Epstein to
9:36
get everybody laid by a seventeen year old
9:38
or whatever and and trick them and
9:40
blackmail them. when they just
9:42
are in everybody's cell phone in their
9:44
pocket.
9:44
Lots of redundancy there.
9:46
And, yeah, I I've
9:48
already seen some stuff coming out,
9:50
some sort of apologetics over the
9:53
religious scientist party being emitted
9:55
by some major federation
9:58
umbrella groups. So
9:59
the the nodes of the
10:02
Israel affinity ecosystem,
10:04
as I sometimes call it, gonna be working overtime
10:06
to sort of whitewash
10:09
this guy and give him,
10:11
you know, the the history that he's
10:13
gonna need to serve five. But,
10:15
you
10:15
know, who knows how long the last how many
10:18
elections has Israel had over the past
10:20
couple of years? It's it's not exactly
10:22
demonstrating much stability
10:24
and continuity. So, you
10:26
know,
10:26
maybe maybe he won't contribute
10:29
to its longevity in its present
10:31
form.
10:31
Yeah. Well, I mean,
10:33
the worst thing about Netanyahu is how
10:35
much influence he has in DC. I mean,
10:37
this guy, Bennett, was never a nice guy. But
10:39
when he was the prime minister, it was like, who's
10:41
Bennett again? which
10:42
-- Right. -- and and he had
10:44
dropped some of the worst stuff that he had at
10:46
least been saying. I don't know exactly
10:48
about his record, but I
10:50
know that it's not the kind of thing where he comes
10:52
to town and all the Republicans and Democrats
10:54
line up to kiss his shoes in the way that they do
10:56
for Netanyahu. So Yeah.
10:58
I'm
10:58
not sure that would happen though. If you think
11:01
about sort of the roll call that's
11:03
been taking place at APAC for
11:05
years and years where both
11:07
parties go to the Washington
11:09
Convention Center and
11:11
stand to attention to, you
11:14
know, any sort of video feed or
11:16
live presentation of
11:18
Netanyahu. I don't think they could do that right
11:20
now. They the protests have been
11:22
growing every year And
11:25
as we talked about earlier in the year,
11:27
APAC, the lead lobbying
11:29
node has pivoted to strictly
11:32
moving money around, and they're not
11:34
even trying to do their signature
11:37
public policy events and lobbying
11:39
day here in Washington and we've been looking for that,
11:41
and it doesn't look like it's gonna happen next
11:43
year either. Yeah.
11:44
As this progresses on Twitter
11:47
growing, that APAC had dumped
11:49
millions of dollars into trying
11:51
to
11:51
the
11:52
support a Republican and defeat this
11:54
Democrat woman in, I think, Pennsylvania.
11:57
and
11:57
that they lost anyway. And
11:59
then
11:59
progressions were crowed. Yeah. Uh-huh.
12:02
Summer. Exactly. They tried
12:04
pretty hard to bumper
12:06
off. And I for one thought they
12:08
were gonna succeed because they've had so many
12:10
successes this year, but
12:12
it looks like the
12:14
power of the dollar couldn't win and
12:16
summer leaves the projected winner,
12:18
if not the winner by this time of House
12:20
District twelve. So Interesting.
12:22
And so, well, hopefully,
12:24
they
12:25
caused a grudge and a vendetta
12:27
there. You know, I don't know. There's
12:29
that one lady from the Midwest
12:31
who just got reelected too. Is
12:34
it Murray? Who's pretty good on
12:36
Israel? who,
12:36
for whatever reason, they can't unelect
12:39
her. Yeah. I
12:41
mean, there are certain people that
12:43
they don't seem to be able to, like
12:46
she to play, you know,
12:48
easily won. And it's because she
12:50
really, you know, I
12:52
think embodies what
12:54
her community is all about. So
12:57
for certain districts,
13:00
it doesn't matter how much APAC
13:03
sort of dark money
13:05
gets pumped into the election. They're
13:07
going to just waste it. Patty
13:09
Murray of
13:10
Washington.
13:12
So,
13:13
yeah,
13:14
there there have been some some
13:17
pretty good pretty
13:19
good wins You know, other
13:21
times though, they clearly could have spent
13:23
more and just didn't. As we talked
13:25
about, you know, each one of these seats is
13:27
worth around thirteen million to fifteen
13:29
million. It take the whole aid package and divide it by
13:31
members of Congress. So, you
13:33
know, if you look at it that way,
13:35
hey, Israel can get weapons, they
13:37
can't get anywhere else. if
13:39
these congresspeople are all on
13:41
board, it's worth a lot to APAC
13:43
to make sure the right people
13:45
win. And you know,
13:47
they they really don't take any
13:49
principled stance if people are gonna
13:51
support the big aid package and
13:53
unconditionally praises. Real, they're
13:55
gonna get Apex support. So it's
13:58
pretty
13:58
amazing.
13:59
But as as we talked about last
14:02
time and I hate to to do this
14:04
on your show. There's a whole thirteen
14:06
part series that we put out,
14:09
which was like an audiobook, except
14:11
it's free called How Israel made APAC, which
14:13
really looks at all the money
14:15
Israel and its proto
14:17
government, the Jewish agency pumped into
14:19
the US, to set
14:21
up a pack. And, you know,
14:23
nobody in the mainstream
14:25
media is ever gonna say that a pack
14:27
is really a foreign influence operation,
14:29
but But we certainly will
14:31
and have the research to back it
14:33
up because everything in that
14:35
podcast is fully cited
14:37
in a three hundred and fifty page
14:40
updated book called how it's real
14:42
main APAC. So there's just
14:44
no questioning. You know, the
14:46
money may be mostly American now,
14:48
but APAC was not set up with US
14:50
funds. And the people who set
14:52
it up definitely
14:55
were very honest in
14:57
their own never
14:59
read biographies about how it all
15:01
came to be. So this, to
15:03
me, is the biggest foreign
15:05
influence on American elections.
15:07
There's just You can talk about Russia or
15:09
China all you want, but Israel
15:11
has the influence and it's
15:13
definitely wielding it in this
15:15
election cycle. Sorry. Hang on just one
15:17
second. Hey,

one, And as he explains on
16:19
the back here, all of our popular
16:21

17:04
tell us
17:04
all about that grant. Yeah.
17:07
So this is what I'm saying that it was
17:09
a slow period during COVID,
17:11
and we got hardly anything,
17:13
and then suddenly we get
17:15
this. And
17:16
just to back up a little
17:18
bit, you
17:18
know, we've been trying to
17:20
get information about the ADL
17:23
ever since we found out a
17:25
decade or more ago that it had
17:27
this major influence on the
17:29
FBI. And so,
17:31
you know, the jager
17:34
Hoover was resisting a
17:36
lot of pressure from the ADL
17:38
to share FBI
17:41
files, to collaborate
17:43
on joint investigations and
17:45
all these undo, utterly
17:48
unacceptable things the ADL was trying
17:50
to do in the nineteen
17:52
forties, but he he finally collapsed
17:54
and decided that he was
17:56
going to have each of his
17:59
field office offices liaise with
18:01
their anti defamation,
18:04
league, counterpart
18:05
in quotes,
18:07
regional
18:07
offices. And so, you know,
18:09
why is this important today? Well,
18:12
Christopher Rae of the FBI was
18:15
just presenting at the
18:17
ADL's National Conference
18:20
this week. And
18:22
on November ten, he basically
18:25
stood there and talked
18:28
about how wonderful the training
18:30
curriculum the ADL gives
18:33
all budding agents, which has been
18:35
going on for two decades,
18:37
how wonderful that is,
18:39
and
18:39
how motivated
18:40
his officers were when they
18:43
visited the Holocaust see
18:45
a police officer standing next to a Nazi
18:47
SS officer, quote, failing
18:49
to protect people from harm,
18:52
unquote, So
18:53
the ADL has been brainwashing
18:55
the FBI for two
18:57
decades to really sort of
18:59
adopt the world view
19:01
of
19:01
not only the ADL, but the Israel
19:04
lobby that basically it's
19:06
a great thing for
19:08
the ADL to have this Law
19:11
enforcement Exchange where
19:13
sheriffs and police and
19:16
all sorts of federal
19:20
officers are going for
19:22
training homeland security
19:25
by the Israelis to basically
19:27
function as a subtler colonial
19:29
police force. And so
19:31
if Christopher Ray had
19:33
any semblance of being balanced.
19:35
He would have pulled out a picture of an
19:37
Israeli police officer with his knee on
19:39
the neck of a Palestinian and
19:42
asked himself whether that's a great
19:44
example for the training of US
19:46
police. But, you know,
19:48
so watching Rae do
19:50
his performance at the ADL
19:52
conference on November ten was
19:54
kind of a reminder of
19:57
how damaging this relationship
19:59
is,
19:59
but also how little people know about
20:02
it. So this trove of documents
20:04
we received was
20:05
basically just an open foyer
20:08
request with the ever present
20:10
threat of a lawsuit next
20:12
to the bottom of it saying we wanna
20:14
know about all communications between the
20:16
FBI and the ADL.
20:18
And essentially,
20:19
what we found is that if
20:22
anything, the number, the year
20:24
number of meetings taking
20:26
place between FBI
20:30
enforcement people and
20:32
the ADL has just skyrocketed.
20:35
They're constantly meeting with
20:37
each other under
20:39
this program
20:40
that
20:41
the ADL has set
20:44
up, which
20:44
is the law
20:47
enforcement liaison
20:49
channel and continually
20:51
swapping information, doing
20:54
training events,
20:55
And
20:56
basically, the law
20:59
enforcement exchange advisory
21:01
committee, it's called Liac is
21:03
taking up a
21:04
substantial amount of their time.
21:07
One of
21:07
the interesting things that we
21:10
uncovered was that the ABL has
21:12
created a new category.
21:14
We hadn't seen this before in any of our
21:16
previous Foyas, which is
21:19
designed to trigger the
21:21
FBI's legal obligation to
21:23
investigate potential violations
21:25
of the so called
21:27
Matthew Shepherd and James Bird hate
21:29
crimes prevention act, which makes it
21:32
unlawful for people to conspire to
21:34
intimidate or hurt or threaten everybody
21:38
and their privileges under the
21:41
constitution. So they've designed these
21:43
reports that they pump into
21:45
the FBI of threats
21:47
to mainly Jewish
21:49
organizations and synagogues
21:51
and things like that. But
21:54
This time
21:54
around, they pumped in a report which
21:57
was
21:58
targeting
21:59
this White
22:02
nationalist organization called
22:04
Vanguard, and
22:07
they detailed how
22:09
this was sending
22:11
people and unfhralling banner
22:15
Vanguard America to their
22:17
website with threatening messages
22:19
And then tacked in friends of
22:21
Sabiel in the American Muslim
22:24
alliance, which are two
22:25
too underfunded,
22:26
I would
22:29
say very humble
22:31
pro Palestinian organizations at
22:33
the bottom of the report.
22:35
So there's a really clear effort to
22:38
conflate Vanguard America
22:40
with friends of Seville North
22:42
America and the American Muslim alliance
22:45
And,
22:45
you know,
22:46
even the FBI as gullible
22:49
as it is disregarded this
22:51
by saying basically that
22:54
the
22:54
ADL has a
22:57
political
22:57
difference with these two
23:00
organizations as
23:02
they put it to the ADL as an ideological
23:05
disagreement with friends of Seville, and there is
23:07
no threat reporting. So
23:09
you know, it's a I see it as
23:11
kinda something new the ADL's trying.
23:14
You just file this very
23:16
scary looking threat report and then like
23:18
a mixing bowl, you throw in some
23:20
other organizations. And who knows?
23:22
Pretty soon, maybe the US will
23:24
have a law allowing
23:26
the lobby and Israel affinity
23:29
groups to recommend shuttering the
23:32
US headquarters of defensive
23:35
children, international, and some of the other
23:37
groups that have been shuttered in
23:39
Israel
23:39
as the police and
23:42
other state actors basically
23:44
put steel barriers
23:46
on the doors of all
23:48
of these organizations and shut them down
23:51
with offensive children international. They're notorious terrorists.
23:54
Right.
23:54
Hey. I mean, I think in there
23:56
an important lesson for the right here that you
23:58
see what they do,
23:59
they take actual Hitler
24:02
loving violent Nazis who will
24:04
stab some innocent black
24:06
guy or massacre Jews
24:08
at their synagogue or something. And
24:10
then they're trying to equate that
24:13
with run of
24:13
the mill, essentially Arab
24:16
charities -- Right. -- and
24:18
Muslim groups the same
24:20
way that they conflate
24:22
those extremely dangerous
24:24
dangerous terrorist Nazi types
24:27
with regular right wingers who show up at
24:29
city council meetings, who show up at
24:31
school board meetings, and say, hey, I don't like
24:33
the way these things are going now. They go,
24:36
oh, you sound like a domestic terrorist to me.
24:38
When here they are participating in
24:40
Democratic politics. Nope.
24:42
Not good enough. So there
24:44
is a That's the same thing they do
24:46
to Muslims too. It's the same thing they've
24:48
been doing with the right wing's descent.
24:50
for the last twenty years. Now it's
24:53
blowing back a little bit.
24:55
And, you know, how about we just insist
24:57
on fairness for everybody? This kind of thing
24:59
is crazy, man.
25:00
Yeah. It is crazy, and it's
25:03
unbalanced, it's unhinged. And, yeah, I agree
25:05
completely. It's the
25:07
FBI is not I mean, they are
25:09
adopting the world view of
25:11
the ABL, and the ABL
25:13
is basically a transmission belt for a
25:15
lot of other organizations, including
25:18
APAC. in terms of some really
25:20
weird, you know,
25:23
propositions, you know, despite
25:25
just by dense of
25:27
longevity, you
25:28
know, you have
25:30
the FBI focusing more
25:34
on
25:35
things that the ADL is telling
25:37
them is the sacred truth, like
25:39
the bombing of the Amia center
25:42
in Argentina. It's just
25:44
an article of faith now
25:46
that elements
25:47
within the Argentine government
25:49
during the dirty war couldn't have possibly
25:51
had anything to do with that, that
25:53
it was definitely has
25:55
been law. You know, and it's
25:57
you know, these are these
25:59
are
25:59
the entities that are
26:02
training the FBI, and
26:05
they pretty much have to swallow these
26:07
things as fact
26:08
even though there's a lot of evidence
26:10
to the contrary. I think
26:13
one of the best new pieces.
26:15
I know Garrett Porter's been doing reporting
26:17
on that for quite a while. Of
26:19
course. taken
26:20
some of the threads apart. But it really,
26:22
you know, it really alters I
26:24
think the FBI's
26:29
willingness to inflict violence on
26:31
Americans when they have all of these sort
26:33
of
26:33
myths in their mindset
26:35
and are spending so much time training
26:37
with the ADL. They will they have
26:39
not released any of the training
26:42
materials
26:42
that the ADL has
26:45
been pumping into their special
26:47
agent trainees. We've asked for
26:49
it
26:49
year after year. They haven't
26:52
released not even that single curriculum
26:54
But we do have an idea now
26:57
because of this latest piece
26:59
what some of the law
27:01
enforcement advisory council
27:03
people are doing, and we put out AAA little
27:05
piece on that as well. So
27:07
the law enforcement advisory
27:09
committee actually sent special
27:12
agents to
27:13
go to an exhibit called
27:16
operation finale, the capture and
27:18
trial of Adolf Eichmann. in
27:21
Illinois. And so these agents
27:23
had to traips through this exhibit,
27:26
honoring Rafael, a Tom,
27:28
the Israeli operative
27:30
and long term mossad
27:32
officer and his brilliant
27:34
kidnapping of the Nazi ADolf
27:36
Eichmann in Argentina so
27:38
it could be taken back to Israel,
27:41
tried and executed. You
27:42
know, and it's kind of it's
27:45
kind of interesting to imagine
27:47
these officers who don't know anything, traipsing
27:49
through the exhibit. They don't know Rafael
27:51
a time. Rand Jonathan
27:53
Pollard against the United
27:55
States and what was the biggest and most
27:58
damaging intelligence theft
28:00
in American history. They don't
28:02
know Rafael Eton was visiting
28:04
the Nuclear Materials and Equipment
28:06
Corporation in Apollo, Pennsylvania.
28:08
You know, the
28:09
plant we've talked about four,
28:12
which lost enough weapons, grade
28:14
uranium to fuel twelve bombs.
28:16
By the way, Grant, I was at an event
28:18
recently, and I medicated who said,
28:20
oh, yeah. I heard you talking all
28:23
about that new mixed stuff
28:25
recently. I can't refer was to interview you,
28:27
who was referring to, or it it might have come up
28:29
in something But anyway, he was, yeah, he
28:31
used to mow the lawn at that site. You know what he
28:33
said? So yeah. I think he was, like, did
28:35
the
28:35
landscaping at that
28:38
nuclear wasteland. man, I
28:40
hope you wore a mask. Well,
28:42
I know I told, man, I hope you
28:44
got some strong chemotherapy. Yeah. No
28:47
kidding. But I mean, so these So this is
28:49
what I'm talking about. This is the brainwashing of,
28:51
you know, the premier law
28:53
enforcement agency. They don't know anything
28:55
about this. They don't know that the
28:58
operation they're honoring at this
29:01
ADL event was
29:02
by somebody who probably did more
29:04
harm to the US than
29:06
any other foreign spy, and
29:09
they're just drinking this stuff
29:11
up. So it really
29:12
it really
29:14
twists I think the whole
29:17
counterintelligence mission. I mean,
29:19
I mentioned in the report that there used
29:22
to be a
29:22
counterintelligence national
29:25
counterintelligence center report on
29:27
economic
29:27
espionage, which always
29:29
put Israel in the top three
29:32
offenders
29:32
of stealing secrets that could
29:34
be put to economic use. But
29:37
I would think that any FBI
29:39
special agent constantly going
29:41
to ADL events slotting
29:44
Israeli spies would probably be less
29:46
interested in protecting the
29:48
US from that, especially when
29:50
they see a political poll of these organizations and,
29:52
you know, probably looking for husband
29:55
longer every bush and and nook
29:57
and cranny in the US. Yeah.
29:59
everybody, please regranced books.
30:03
His biggest best one is big
30:05
Israel, but then there's also the Israel lobby
30:07
interstate government. divert about
30:09
them stealing all the uranium and the
30:11
rest of that. And the latest is this great
30:13
audiobook, how Israel made
30:15
APAC and just check out everything
30:17
he's got at ir mep air
