Transcript [00:00] Hey everybody, it is Wednesday, February [00:02] 11th, and this is an Iran update, but [00:05] I'm probably going to do two Iran [00:07] updates today because right now, [00:09] President Trump and Prime Minister [00:10] Netanyahu are meeting, and there's [00:11] probably going to be some sort of [00:13] readout or press conference. I'm not [00:16] sure. Last time they met, there was [00:18] barely anything. So, I don't know what [00:20] we're going to get out of that meeting [00:22] today, but I figure if there's breaking [00:24] news coming out of that, I will do [00:26] another video later if uh here in [00:29] Israel, it's still uh it's still early [00:31] enough that I can make the video. But [00:32] there's a still a tremendous amount to [00:35] report on. So, let's just get right to [00:38] it. Let's start with President Trump on [00:41] Larry Cuddlo's show on Fox News from [00:44] yesterday. As you know, we have a [00:46] massive flotilla right now going over to [00:49] Iran. We'll see what happens. I think [00:51] they want to make a deal. I think it'd [00:53] be foolish if they didn't. We took out [00:55] their nuclear power last time and we'll [00:57] have to see if we take out more this [00:58] time. [00:59] >> Do you think a deal with Iran with this [01:02] current regime would ever really stick? [01:04] >> They want to make a deal. They wouldn't [01:06] talk to anybody else, but they're [01:08] talking to me. But, you know, it's a [01:10] good question. A lot of people say no. [01:13] And I would say that I'd rather make a [01:15] deal. It's got to be a good deal. No [01:17] nuclear weapons, no missiles, no this, [01:20] no that, all the different things that [01:21] you want. But some people worry that uh [01:25] they've been very dishonest with us over [01:27] the years, right? Very dishonest. Obama [01:30] Obama and Biden, what they did in terms [01:33] of creating a monster with Iran was [01:36] terrible. That Iran nuclear deal was one [01:39] of the dumbest deals I've ever seen. [01:42] >> All right. Um, so the breaking news out [01:44] of this out of this story, and if you've [01:47] been watching my updates the last few [01:48] days, you know what I'm talking about. [01:50] The big breaking news is that he [01:52] included the missiles. Also, we talked [01:55] about this that the previous few [01:57] statements he was talking more just [01:58] about the nuclear program. And here he's [02:01] bringing he says no nuclear, no [02:03] missiles, no this, no that, whatever he [02:05] was talking about. And of course he also [02:06] mentions that they have all the military [02:08] assets over there as always. Now, in [02:11] terms of what Larry Cuddlo asked him, [02:12] like, "Do you really think a deal is [02:14] worth anything?" Like, "Even if you make [02:15] a deal," what he was basically saying [02:17] politely, "Even if you make a deal, [02:19] what's it worth with these guys? They're [02:20] not going to hold to any deal." That's [02:23] refreshing to hear from from an American [02:25] commentator, but it's also so such an [02:27] important message for all of these [02:29] Western diplomats. Look, in Islam, there [02:33] is a principle called takia. Taka is [02:37] deception and lying for the purposes of [02:40] jihad, for the purposes of Allah. And [02:41] you're allowed to lie to an infidel. [02:43] It's totally fine. And it's actually [02:47] like considered virtuous if you lie to [02:49] your enemies. And that's why these [02:51] that's why when you see these these [02:53] Muslim leaders just saying lies, like [02:56] saying our nuclear program is only for [02:59] civilian use and we want to be we want [03:00] it to be peaceful. and they just they'll [03:02] stand in front of the camera and just [03:04] say lies and they look so calm about it. [03:06] Think about this. The reason that a lie [03:09] detector works is because your heart [03:13] rate changes when you're lying, right? [03:15] Because people have we're we're all [03:17] raised with some sort of [03:20] guilty conscience when we're lying. If [03:22] you're rel If you're raised in a [03:24] religious system that tells you that God [03:27] wants you to lie, that God wants you to [03:29] deceive, you don't feel bad about it. I [03:32] always wonder if these guys could pass a [03:33] lie detector test. Anyway, um besides [03:36] the Trump statement, we also have a [03:38] statement from the Iranians themselves. [03:39] So, here is Abasar Ragi, the Iranian [03:42] foreign minister, being interviewed by [03:44] Rick Sanchez, who's a piece of garbage. [03:46] Rick Sanchez is a commentator. He's an [03:49] anchor on RT, which is the Russian [03:53] propaganda news network. He actually [03:54] moved to Moscow. So, he gives them this [03:57] this image of having an American, you [04:00] know, host. And he he was on CNN, he was [04:02] on some other networks over the years, [04:04] but he's basically a shill for Russian [04:06] propaganda. And here he interviewed [04:09] Abasari. So, let's take a look at this [04:10] clip. [04:11] >> Instructed my team, you need Mr. Trump [04:13] to tell you personally that since he's [04:16] the one who broke the promise last time, [04:20] >> we need a guarantee. We need an we need [04:23] an an objective guarantee that the same [04:27] scenario is not going to be repeated and [04:30] the the United States uh is not using [04:34] force to resolve differences. Yes. [04:37] >> With others or with Iran at least. [04:39] >> That's a fair point. They they they [04:41] tried it once last year and they failed. [04:44] Iran's nuclear program cannot be bombed [04:48] uh and and destroyed because it's a [04:50] technology we that we have developed by [04:52] ourselves. So there there is no solution [04:56] but a diplomatic [04:59] >> right. So here's Abasarshi saying that [05:02] we need a guarantee from the Americans. [05:05] >> We need we need a guarantee from the [05:07] Americans that they're not going to [05:09] attack us while we're negotiating [05:10] because last time while we were [05:12] negotiating [05:13] uh the Israelis attacked and we need a [05:16] guarantee. Now that's obviously not [05:18] going to come because uh that that [05:20] changes the whole tenor of the [05:21] negotiations and it just gives an [05:22] incentive to the Iranians to make sure [05:25] that the negotiations go on as long as [05:27] possible. But they're, you know, I take [05:29] that as a bit of a sign of of anxiety on [05:32] their part. But again, they're going to [05:33] be very calm about it when they say it. [05:36] Meanwhile, in Tehran today, while [05:38] they're negotiating and want a peaceful [05:40] solution, there was a celebration [05:43] because today, February 11th, is the [05:45] anniversary [05:47] of the revolution in Iran that that [05:50] brought the that brought the regime to [05:53] power. And look at this. At a government [05:56] organized rally in Thran, [05:59] Iranian media reported that mock coffins [06:02] draped with American flags were [06:05] displayed. That's what these are. These [06:06] are coffins draped with American flags [06:09] bearing the names and photos of several [06:11] senior US military officials. According [06:14] to Iran International, the coffins [06:16] featured, among others, Brad Cooper, [06:18] commander of US Sentcom Central Command, [06:20] Randy George, chief of staff of the US [06:22] Army, Curtis Bass, deputy commander of [06:25] the 9inth Air Force, uh, and deputy [06:27] commander of the US Central Command Air [06:29] Forces. These are mock coffins of [06:32] Americans. So, while they're say, "Oh, [06:34] yeah, we're negotiating, we want a [06:35] peaceful solution," they're also uh [06:37] coming up with theatrical ways to [06:39] threaten the Americans. And meanwhile, [06:40] also in Tehran, there was another fire. [06:42] There have been a number of these [06:43] recently. A fire erupted yesterday at a [06:47] power plant cooling tower in western [06:49] Thran. According to Iranian state media, [06:52] this was at the Olston Satakhan power [06:55] plant uh in again in uh in Tehran. And [07:00] this and this is one of a number of [07:02] fires that has broken out in Thran [07:04] recently. We saw this from just a few [07:06] days ago from four days ago that there [07:08] was a large fire that broke out at an [07:10] Iranian military complex and then a [07:14] couple weeks uh maybe I think a week [07:15] before that there was a big fire at a u [07:18] at a big port near some energy [07:20] resources. So there's all these [07:22] mysterious fires taking place. By the [07:24] way, we saw the same thing before the [07:26] 12-day war where there were all sorts of [07:29] random explosions and and mysterious uh [07:32] fires going on in Iran. And I've pointed [07:36] out before that I'm not saying I don't [07:37] know, I have no inside information, but [07:40] we but it is well known that that the [07:42] Israelis have a lot of assets on the [07:44] ground and they're constantly active [07:47] sabotaging the Iranian regime. So, who [07:50] knows? Maybe this is part of that. [07:51] Meanwhile, we also have this story. Now, [07:54] this is interesting, you know, uh [07:56] because the the it says that China [07:58] deploys Type055 destroyer signals intel [08:03] support to Iran as US THAAD spotted in [08:07] Jordan. This is a story from the Times [08:09] of India from today that talks about the [08:13] Chinese apparently seemingly coming to [08:16] the aid of the Iranians. Let me explain. [08:20] Let me explain what this really is. So, [08:21] China put these type 055, that's what [08:24] they're called, guided missile [08:26] destroyers. [08:28] Okay. Um, they they sent that I'm sorry, [08:32] they sent a type 55 055 guided missile [08:35] destroyer, also another guided missile [08:37] destroyer, an 052 and the La Wang one [08:40] naval tracking surveillance ship into [08:44] the Gulf of Oman. The La La Lang one is [08:49] a space tracking vessel capable of long [08:52] range monitoring including tracking [08:54] naval movements and missile activity [08:57] suggesting China may be collecting broad [09:01] maritime and electromagnetic [09:03] intelligence. This is all from the times [09:04] of India story. This movement occurs as [09:07] US military assets notably notably THAAD [09:11] missile defense systems [09:14] um have been deployed in Jordan. Okay? [09:18] Meaning the US has a major air force [09:20] base in Jordan. It has bases all over [09:22] the Middle East really except in Israel. [09:24] Has has a base in uh in in Egypt in the [09:27] south of the Sinai. It has bases in [09:29] Saudi Arabia. It has two bases in [09:30] Jordan. It has bases in Syria and Iraq. [09:33] The United States has assets all over [09:35] the Middle East and they've been uh [09:37] installing they've been deploying THAAD [09:40] missile defense systems near their [09:42] military bases. Now the missile defense [09:46] systems that were deployed in Jordan by [09:48] the US military base [09:50] were seen by satellite imagery by the [09:54] Chinese by the CCP. and the Chinese [09:57] released the pictures of the US [10:00] installations of the missile defenses by [10:03] their base in Jordan. Now, why is that [10:05] important? Because what it's doing here [10:07] is the Chinese are kind of signaling [10:10] that they have intelligence capabilities [10:13] because they're they're releasing [10:14] picture they're releasing photographs of [10:16] US military bases and that's supposed to [10:18] be part of the intimidation tactic. Now, [10:23] Beijing, the Chinese could be setting [10:26] themselves up for an intelligence [10:28] gathering and sharing role here to share [10:31] intelligence on Western forces in the [10:34] area and they would share this with with [10:37] [snorts] uh obviously with the Iranian [10:39] regime and that could that could give [10:42] the Iranians some information. So the [10:44] Chinese are signaling that they're [10:46] sharing or or maybe they are actually [10:48] planning to serve in an intelligence [10:50] capacity and maybe even a missile [10:52] defense capacity. That's what these [10:55] ships that they deployed are all about. [10:57] Okay, so let me just keep it simple. The [10:59] assets that the Chinese have now [11:01] deployed to the Gulf of Oman have a an [11:05] intelligence gathering capability and a [11:07] missile defense capability. Okay. So, [11:10] they're but these are warships and a [11:13] surveillance vessel, right? So, they're [11:14] putting them into this area where where [11:16] the United States is amassing all of its [11:17] assets. And at the same time, the [11:20] Chinese have not here's what they have [11:22] not done. They have still not said that [11:25] they are going to come to the defense of [11:28] the Iranians. And I've talked about this [11:30] about how they're not going to. Okay? I [11:32] I I keep saying this and I'm really [11:34] quite confident. No one is actually [11:36] going to come to the defense of the [11:38] Iranian regime if it's falling. But what [11:40] the Chinese and the Russians are doing, [11:42] the Russians to less extent, but the [11:44] Chinese to a greater extent, what [11:45] they're doing is trying to signal that [11:47] they're with the Iranians to try to like [11:50] this posturing without actually saying [11:52] we will come to the Iranians aid because [11:54] they're not going to and they don't want [11:56] to get into a kinetic conflict with the [11:57] United States. So they're again saying [12:01] that they're going to support them and [12:02] they might support them with some sort [12:03] of intellig intelligence gathering, but [12:06] the Chinese also have to very carefully [12:08] manage their relationship with President [12:10] Trump. Now, meanwhile, what's the US up [12:13] to? So here, this is interesting. This [12:14] kind of gets lost in the shuffle with [12:15] everything else going on in the news, [12:18] but JD Vance has been visiting a couple [12:20] important countries. US and Aarian [12:23] signed strategic partnership during [12:25] Vance visit. This is from yesterday. So [12:27] JD Vance, Vice President Vance was over [12:29] there in Azaraijan and they signed a [12:31] strategic partnership on Tuesday [12:34] encompassing economic and security [12:36] cooperation. Okay, that's very [12:39] important. Uh and what's so important [12:41] about it is that Azarbaian traditionally [12:43] was an enemy of Armenia and on this same [12:45] trip JD Vance was in Armenia. Now the [12:48] deal he signed in Armenia because [12:51] Azarban and Armenia have made peace with [12:52] each other. uh the uh the US brokered [12:55] that peace agreement and now they're [12:56] they're making uh stronger agreements [12:59] more extensive agreements with both of [13:01] those countries uh traditional enemies [13:04] and when when JD Vance was in Armenia [13:07] see it says here US consolidates [13:08] engagement with Azarbaian and Armenia in [13:10] Vance's historic visit to the south [13:12] caucuses this visit to Armenia while on [13:16] the surface it was only about um you [13:19] know what they what they said about the [13:21] Armenia deal initially was that it was [13:23] only about uh you know civilian uses of [13:26] nuclear energy. Now they're not going to [13:27] make them into a nuclear uh into a [13:30] nuclear nation in terms of weapons. But [13:32] in the fine print in the fine print it [13:35] says here uh that that the the agreement [13:39] between between Armenia and the United [13:42] States will also include [13:45] sharing drones. Look at this. Vance said [13:49] the US is ready to export advanced [13:50] computer chips and surveillance drones [13:52] to Armenia and to invest in the [13:54] country's infrastructure. So it's a [13:56] little bit more than just a cooperation [13:58] on civilian energy. There's also some [14:01] sort there's also a security agreement [14:03] there. Now why is that so important? Why [14:04] am I bringing up Aaraijan and Armenia? [14:07] Aarjan and Armenia both border Iran. So [14:11] the United States [14:13] is is consolidating its alliances in [14:18] these in these countries that are within [14:20] the Russian orbit but have broken away [14:22] from the Russian orbit and are now [14:25] aligning themselves with the US and they [14:27] border with the Iranians. You see this [14:30] might be preparation for the fall of the [14:34] Iranian regime. We've talked about this. [14:35] If the Iranian regime falls, its size [14:38] and location in the region mean [14:41] that you could have this this land [14:44] corridor of pro-western nations going [14:46] from India through the Emirates through [14:48] Iran all the way across to the [14:51] Mediterranean and and into Europe. And [14:54] if more and more countries that border [14:57] Iran and border Russia, like are in that [15:00] area, are now aligning themselves with [15:02] the United States, it first of all, it [15:05] boxes in the Iranians even more. It [15:07] boxes in uh the Russians. But this could [15:10] all be part of the preparation of the [15:11] United States for the fall of the [15:14] Iranian regime. I don't know, maybe it [15:15] is, maybe it isn't. Maybe I'm just [15:16] speculating. This is my Iran update for [15:19] now. And like I said, as we speak, as or [15:21] as I record this, I should say, by the [15:23] time you see it, the meeting will be [15:24] over. But as I'm recording this today on [15:28] Wednesday, February 11th, President [15:30] Trump and Prime Minister Netanyahu are [15:33] meeting in the White House. So, a lot is [15:35] happening. All right, folks. That's it [15:38] for the update. Uh, please make sure to [15:40] uh like, subscribe, and all that. Thank [15:42] you for watching the videos. Thank you [15:44] for telling other people about this [15:45] channel. And, uh, drop me a a comment. [15:48] Let me know what you think of this. Let [15:49] me know uh you you what you think is [15:51] going to happen in this uh in this [15:54] impending confrontation with the [15:56] Iranians. Certainly the negotiations [15:58] don't seem to be going anywhere. All [16:00] right, God bless.
