00:00:00Qatar, in the government of the martyred Raisi, after subsequent discussions on this matter, Mr.
00:00:03Ghorbanzadeh was on this very program, saying all of this because there was a
00:00:07discussion that America could stop it. My dear sirs, they were saying
00:00:11that now there are ways provided and such, but
00:00:14it turned out no, it's not like that. It seems the Americans have provided a better way
00:00:18to stop it. Yes, that means, after all, the infrastructure is in their hands. The infrastructure
00:00:22for financial transfers and all these financial infrastructures
00:00:25are in American hands, so they can stop it. They haven't found a way to be out of this.
00:00:29For America, all these sanctions are a paperwork process,
00:00:32and with that very paperwork, they can reverse it.
00:00:36It's not even paper. Now, it should be clear
00:00:39to our viewers, and to anyone who, I mean, if anyone doesn't want
00:00:43to see, after all, if someone says we can, America can really take it until
00:00:46the last moment. Now, I'm not saying that my friends were saying this
00:00:50both on and off the program, that no, now there are ways that we won't reveal now,
00:00:54but the Americans can't anymore. See, their position wasn't like this
00:00:57before, right? Now, what do you think?
00:01:04Some experts have two options for alternative routes: one is cash, they say.
00:01:07Cash, meaning dollars in a suitcase at Mehrabad Airport.
00:01:11Well, some say, "No, this isn't right, it's useless." What should we do with it?
00:01:15I'll get to that. Some also said about Mehrabad Airport, "Why did you mention Mehrabad Airport in that matter?" International flights are at Imam Airport, not Mehrabad.
00:01:18No, international flights for officials use Mehrabad Airport.
00:01:22They have a special pavilion. Now, this airport.
00:01:25This criticism you're making is valid, indeed. So,
00:01:29when you have paper dollars, apart from the issue of sanctionability or
00:01:33non-sanctionability, which is a whole debate about whether
00:01:36paper dollars can be tracked
00:01:39or not, that has a complex technical discussion.
00:01:42Let's assume that's not it. Your use of paper dollars
00:01:45is limited. In the end, you'll want to
00:01:48, for example, from the market, you want to create market balance, put it into the market
00:01:51for traveler's currency, what do you call it, student currency, some
00:01:55tourist or pilgrimage trips that have a
00:01:58specific limit. I don't want to mention the number. It's a specific number per
00:02:02year. And then a part of the banknotes is currently circulating in the market.
00:02:05So it's not like you're at zero now,
00:02:09but for example, if you want to import an essential commodity from Brazil, in the field
00:02:12of, say, oilseeds or whatever, I'm just giving an example, you can't say, "Okay,
00:02:16I'll send you a plane."
00:02:20Dollars. It's not possible; they won't accept it at all.
00:02:23That's why this option is not another suggested option
00:02:27that some experts have put forward. As an idea, I just want to
00:02:56This is also the part about the released funds. Well, there's a video from one.
00:03:16It turns Iran into the gatekeeper or guardian of the Strait of Hormuz, and therefore
00:03:19this will make it difficult
00:03:23to succeed in this agreement because the United
00:03:26States will clash with Iran if the monitoring
00:03:30role is like this. And even the Gulf states will not
00:03:33accept this new equation after the war ends.
00:03:37For example, if there was a tanker carrying weapons to a Gulf state,
00:03:40Kuwait or Qatar, for example, how would Iran deal
00:03:44with it during the war period, I mean? And therefore,
00:03:47Iran will have a distinguished position over the Gulf states.
00:03:51This position was not achieved even by the Shah
00:03:54during his time, and he was known as the policeman
00:03:58of the Gulf, but he did not have such a role.
00:05:42They will assess with the power we have and with
00:05:45the hidden and visible information they have, they will draw conclusions. Not that God forbid we say
00:05:49do this now or not, but it's a place where one can make a stand and solve
00:05:53those issues. Let's move on to the conflicts within the United States of America. This
00:05:56article is actually a very noisy one, and the noisy news
00:06:00and reports about the disagreements and quarrels between Trump
00:06:04and Pete Geertz
00:06:06happened, friends. No, friends,
00:06:10let it be. It was a very important meeting during
00:06:13those days when Trump kept saying, "Tomorrow I will come
00:06:17for the bridges and power plants. The day after tomorrow I will come. We are preparing
00:06:20to launch an attack that has been unprecedented
00:06:23since World War II until
00:06:26now." Of course, these words come from his illiteracy.
00:06:30In World War II, they had major attacks, but for example, the bombs they dropped on
00:06:33Vietnam were more than in all of World War II. Now he doesn't know.
00:06:37We are familiar with him now. In these 5-6 months, I think the audience
00:06:41has constantly
00:06:45become acquainted with his personality. He also has a person who is very similar to him in personality
00:06:49named Pete Geertz, and
00:06:51we explained before that he was not in the stature
00:06:55of the Pentagon chiefs. Our audience can easily
00:06:59make a comparison by looking at the list of Pentagon
00:07:02chiefs, for example, from 1945 until now.
00:07:05Among them, for example, there are nuclear physicists, exactly from
00:07:08the peak era of, for example, the nuclear confrontation of the United
00:07:11States with the Soviet Union. I don't know,
00:07:15there are very high-level industrial
00:07:18managers because the Pentagon is fundamentally a technology-driven
00:07:22organization, and with the production of weapons,
00:07:26America's military power is very high. I don't know,
00:07:29there have been economists and many
00:07:33four-star generals, meaning seasoned
00:07:36and experienced individuals. Now, we don't have a moral stance,
00:07:40but even in this criminal army, he was a professional
00:07:44in the true sense of the word. When they brought Hagerty,
00:07:47Hagerty didn't have much military experience. They brought him
00:07:50up, and from that moment on, it was very clear that Trump had brought
00:07:54someone who was a yes-man and could control the Pentagon
00:07:58through him. Several
00:08:01waves of purges,
00:08:0412, then 5, then one Secretary of the Navy. So, a total of
00:08:0718 senior officials
00:08:11were thrown out of the US military establishment during the war.
00:08:14These were all professional people in the middle of the war.
00:08:18Well, this
00:08:21really means a lot. We shouldn't just gloss over it,
00:08:24for example, by saying that they maintain appearances, that so-and-so
00:08:28resigned, so-and-so couldn't continue
00:08:31his work, or that someone else had disagreements with Trump
00:08:35over budget issues in later years. No, no country
00:08:38changes its generals in the middle of a war. It reaches this point.
00:08:42The Camp David meeting, which was exactly last week, we explained
00:08:46that they would sit there and talk, and there was a press
00:08:50conference that we covered. And we said on this
00:08:53very program that the decision on whether Americans would return to this
00:08:56war or not would be made exactly at Camp David.
00:09:00The headline is clear,
00:09:03right? Trump and Hagerty clashed
00:09:07at Camp David over concerns about dwindling missile stockpiles
00:09:10related to Iran.
00:09:12Wash. in that post says I have two informed sources who interviewed me on condition of
00:09:16anonymity. This is a legal
00:09:19journalistic process in the United
00:09:22States. There is a law that allows you to interview certain government officials
00:09:26on condition of anonymity. Now, who was it? Was it at the cabinet
00:09:29level or experts who work with
00:09:33these people? I don't know, and the article doesn't mention
00:09:37anything, but Hagerty also has
00:09:40political rivals within the ruling establishment.
00:09:43And it's not. It explains
00:09:47that the Americans entered a war, and Trump's
00:09:50objection was that Hagerty had made promises to him that
00:09:54none of them had been fulfilled. The promise, apparently according
00:09:58to this article, was that they said they would finish the operation
00:10:01in 100 hours. And it's very likely that they were copying
00:10:05the Desert Storm operation, the first Gulf War
00:10:09in 1991.
00:10:12100 hours. From the perspective of the Iraqis, Saddam's team fell.
00:10:16From the perspective of the
00:10:19allied countries, it was liberated. They took Kuwait in 100 hours. Now, I should tell you something. That
00:10:23professional army at that time, when it was working,
00:10:27with a very complex and intelligent design,
00:10:31had not planned for 100 hours. It had planned to enter the war and succeeded in 100 hours
00:10:35with 167
00:10:38American casualties. It succeeded.
00:10:41He says Hagerty apparently told Trump 100 hours.
00:10:44And one of the things he did was not inform any of the allies,
00:10:48both regional countries and European countries,
00:10:51some of which are very close to the US, for example, Britain.
00:10:59It doesn't have two countries aligned with the US. It's beyond
00:11:03that. Since
00:11:06World War II, their relations have been
00:11:09very close. And no one was informed. And he says, "We came,
00:11:13sir, our precise
00:11:16ammunition in both offensive and defensive areas,
00:11:19we used both extensively." Hagerty apparently promised that
00:11:22these issues would be resolved, and
00:11:26production would return to the same promises Trump was making two or three weeks ago, saying
00:11:30we talked and we're going to
00:11:33increase our production and replace these. This article also
00:11:36explains, like all those articles related to military-industrial
00:11:40discussions that we explained in this program,
00:11:43that these cannot be replaced through a very fast process.
00:11:46The article itself says that from the time
00:11:50the budget is approved and becomes
00:11:54enforceable, from that time, the process of
00:11:57contracting with this US military-industrial complex
00:12:01is a time-consuming process because there are legal issues. Those
00:12:05companies must meticulously handle the contracts.
00:12:08After all, things are said in it, and when this
00:12:12contract is signed, it takes several
00:12:15years for the ammunition to be delivered.
00:12:18The Americans, according to statements from CENTCOM itself, say we
00:12:22hit 13,000 targets in Iran
00:12:26and countered 8,500 Iranian projectiles.
00:12:29Now, this shows that they used a very large volume of ammunition, including ballistic
00:12:33cruise missiles and drones. This is definite.
00:12:36If their claim is true that they defended
00:12:39against 8,500 projectiles,
00:12:43which, by the way, the article also says ambiguously,
00:12:46it says "we countered," it doesn't say
00:12:49whether "we hit them or not," but it says "we saw 8,500 and
00:12:53fired at them." That's the meaning. And this
00:12:56is what happened. Trump told him why it hasn't been replaced.
00:12:59Hagerty said that this
00:13:02lack of replacement is not his fault; it's the fault
00:13:06of the Biden administration. And they used a lot of ammunition,
00:13:09which is why we are now in trouble.
00:13:13And he blamed one of his deputies. I
00:13:16unfortunately forgot his name. Well, I didn't
00:13:19know him either. He said it's the fault of this deputy of the
00:13:22Pentagon itself and the Biden administration,
00:13:26who consumed the ammunition, and we don't have ammunition.
00:13:29He says the reason Trump didn't return to a widespread war and a war
00:13:33in which he made very big promises, and as he said,
00:13:36was unprecedented since World War II,
00:13:39this article believes that none of this
00:13:43was the case, meaning none of the political, regional
00:13:46issues, I don't know, agreements. It says the reason was a shortage
00:13:49of ammunition, and Dunford, meaning the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff
00:13:53of the United States, came.
00:13:55He also laid out the process of how the operation was formed.
00:13:58CENTCOM came and launched that 13-day war, which
00:14:01some call the Battle of Hormuz. After 13 days, it reached a point
00:14:05where it said, "Sir, I have reached the maximum
00:14:08bombing efficiency. I can't do anything more than this. Either we expand
00:14:12into the depth, which naturally
00:14:16means receiving more ammunition,
00:14:19troops, and equipment from the United States
00:14:23for CENTCOM.
00:14:25Or we must stop it here."
00:14:29So they want to plan the operation. Dunford also comes
00:14:31here, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff of the US, and presents
00:14:35the operation plan with a very serious warning
00:14:38that this action will cause our ammunition reserves, both
00:14:42in offense and defense,
00:14:45to be in a situation. He says we are already facing a shortage. He says it will enter
00:14:49a dangerous situation such that it can no longer
00:14:53defend other operational areas of the United States,
00:14:56and in some cases, we cannot even defend
00:15:00ourselves. Dunford adds there that in the last days
00:15:04of this 13-day war,
00:15:07we were forced to instruct our air defense forces
00:15:11to monitor the shots and counter them if the strike
00:15:15was a decisive one.
00:15:18Now, a question for Nima, this statement, excuse me,
00:15:22this doesn't just mean hitting the ground again.
00:15:26If an ammunition is deviating, a projectile is going to hit
00:15:29a desert, the duty of the air defense force is not
00:15:33to fire at it. He says I came and said to hit
00:15:37the decisive ones.
00:16:07I don't have it, or I have little, or as you say, some of it is offensive.
00:16:11Did I understand correctly that he's saying they have limitations
00:16:14in firing precision missiles at precise targets inside Iran now? Yes,
00:16:18look, in this same article, he mentions
00:16:22the ground-to-ground missiles and gives a number that I really
00:16:25didn't think would even be close to that. He says
00:16:28they used 1,600 rounds and
00:16:32says they are almost completely depleted.
00:16:35He says they are almost completely depleted. We have used all
00:16:39of their reserves. When their precise ammunition
00:16:43runs out, you see, they can maintain firepower.
00:16:46They are called "dumb bombs." A bomb that you throw
00:16:50that doesn't have a very good targeting system
00:16:53is very much a dumb bomb.
00:16:56Now, a dumb bomb isn't necessarily a bomb; anything that is
00:16:59"dumb" is called a dumb bomb. A bomb
00:17:02in Persian literature means something thrown from an airplane.
00:17:06That's not what he means. He says we have unguided things, but look,
00:17:10it reduces the efficiency
00:17:13of its fire. It can maintain its firepower.
00:17:17See, before, it would come and fire a missile at a city. It knew
00:17:20it couldn't hit the city. It would come and hit exactly its door, right?
00:17:24We would reopen it through an engineering process in a few hours and fire from there.
00:17:28We proved this, but that door would close for a few hours.
00:17:32Now, when you have a weapon. In this situation,
00:17:36شما وقتی که با سلاح.
00:18:07it changes the weapon it uses. It goes for dumb bombs.
00:18:11At that time, they were talking to Nima. Nima wasn't on board with this analysis. Robert
00:18:14Pape, Nima, said the same point. He said, "Look, because he wants
00:18:18to have an offensive
00:18:21attack, he has to be able to hit precisely. Otherwise, what does he want to hit
00:18:24with bombs that are not smart and don't have precise guidance capability?" Of course,
00:18:28when you look at Pape's intellectual framework
00:18:31and read it from
00:18:35behind, the point is that he says, "I've worked for 20 years, for example, on the topic of
00:18:38bombing design and how to bomb
00:18:42to have a political impact, to have an economic impact." And he says
00:18:45very deeply and explicitly, he says, "They are much
00:18:49dumber than that." He says, "Their war was completely
00:18:53wrong from the start." If we follow Pape, he says, "Even what
00:18:56they did, even with that strategy, that famous book
00:19:00he has, 'Bombing to Win,' bombing
00:19:03to win," he says, "it doesn't fit into that logic at all."
00:19:06This was an ambitious plan.
00:19:09Those two informed sources in this article
00:19:11specifically say something else: they say Venezuela really
00:19:15affected us. He says that operation,
00:19:18from a military perspective, was 100%
00:19:21successful, like a Hollywood movie.
00:19:25They really executed it like a movie, cleanly,
00:19:29and then left. Now, the fact that there was betrayal there is
00:19:32almost certain for everyone, because with these American
00:19:36bodyguards flying over Caracas,
00:19:40no one even swore at them. After all, what do I know,
00:19:43four light weapons would have been enough to shoot them down. The Americans came and
00:19:46finished this work with one injured person,
00:19:50and they even brought this injured person to one of Trump's speeches
00:19:54and gave him a medal. And they managed
00:19:57to conclude it with one injured person. He says this caused two things to happen:
00:20:01one, the self-confidence of this ruling establishment went very high,
00:20:04and they took Iran lightly.
00:20:08And they thought that their
00:20:12military tools, their power, was much greater than it actually is.
00:20:15See, I've said it many times: the United States Army is a very
00:20:19powerful army, but it also has limitations, it has a
00:20:22limit. There are times when the
00:20:26army doesn't work, there are times when you can't
00:20:29move forward with bombs. This is a reality that exists
00:20:33for all armies, you know. I mean, it's not something
00:20:36that only applies to Americans. No. Second, he says it greatly
00:20:40strengthened Hagerty's position, and he says that those
00:20:43who were against it within Trump's team, he says, all of them
00:20:47"shortened their tongues," as he puts it. He says he would come and say, "Look how
00:20:51I handled Venezuela," and what they mean by 100% success
00:20:54in Venezuela is that the job was done. They had
00:20:58one, one injured person.
00:21:01And
00:21:04a government came to power. Now it's Delcy Rodriguez,
00:21:07and we have another article, a Western article, that says
00:21:11practically Rubio is running Venezuela, meaning the US Secretary of State,
00:21:15is a hundred percent submissive.
00:21:17He says whatever you say. Now, I don't know
00:21:21if he was with them from the beginning or if he's scared. He's also scared.
00:21:25The reality is that this is also a joke, he had said jokingly
00:21:28that Delcy Rodriguez tells Rubio, "After all, you didn't say whether we are a colony
00:21:32or a country." Now he doesn't know his own situation. Trump posted a tweet,
00:21:36referring to this, and he's very upset
00:21:40and has actually said that those who leaked this information,
00:21:44"I'll do this and that to them." Let the guys put up that post related to this information leak.
00:21:46Now, the United States has massive quantities, especially of certain
00:21:50specific types, available. In addition, a large volume of ammunition is being produced,
00:21:54and whenever needed, it will be sent to the United States. He probably means outside,
00:21:58you know, when he says it will be sent inside. Defense industry companies are building the largest
00:22:01number of factories and production facilities in our country's history.
00:22:05Individuals who have leaked these treasonous statements
00:22:09are being prosecuted. Long prison sentences
00:22:12will be requested for them.
00:22:16This is something. This is a thing.
00:22:22He put it in quotation marks. "Leakers" is what
00:22:25is written here. Yes, "leak"
00:22:28means to leak, which now can be used in both senses:
00:22:32to leak or to give information. This must be true news
00:22:35that you leak. To leak.
00:22:38Of course, if I pay attention now, it's in quotation marks, meaning it can be a term.
00:22:42Yes, that is, in Persian, we say in translation "so-called
00:22:44leakers." This "so-called" we use
00:22:48refers to a sentence like, for example, when we say "the country of Israel,"
00:22:52when we want to write it internally, they call themselves
00:22:55a country, the so-called country. This also has
00:22:59a point, but see the part about treason
00:23:02that he's mentioning here. This is a point, you know. And that is
00:23:06in
00:23:09America, the judicial rulings that he's referring to regarding
00:23:13treason are serious things. Meaning it's not like, for example, you committed a traffic violation
00:23:16and they'll easily let it slide. He's raising
00:23:20the level of the work. It seems if we look at the whole thing
00:23:24from a distance, if we look at it for a minute, it's that this pressure
00:23:27is affecting these matters, meaning these words are working within America,
00:23:31and this conflict. Wash. in that post we just read, is a
00:23:35center-left publication and is close to the Democrats.
00:23:38It's not a Democratic publication to say it's the Democrats' propaganda
00:23:42organ, but it's close to the Democrats. In various criticisms, it has supported
00:23:45the Democrats until now, for example.
00:23:49But the point is, if they say something very
00:23:52far-fetched, it can easily
00:23:55become a heavy issue for them.
00:23:58Yes, and he says, "There is no smoke without fire."
00:24:02Truly, the issue of deficiency
00:24:05in
00:24:07precise military equipment, whether offensive or
00:24:10defensive, seems to be real. Some make an objection,
00:24:14saying that maybe all of this is a
00:24:17big deception
00:24:21to trick Iran so that Iran
00:24:25makes wrong calculations, thinking that the Americans
00:24:28don't know to take a step that would force them to
00:24:31come. Everyone.
00:24:35Who doesn't have it? For example, I'm saying it's not like we're going to
00:24:39now collect our air defense systems and, for example,
00:24:42sell them to someone. Or, what do I know, close our missile
00:24:45cities and bring them to the ground. This really has an impact
00:24:49on us from a military perspective.
00:25:01We don't have it that way at all. I have explained many times in this program that no country in the world
00:25:04has it. Well, there are countries whose air defense is much
00:25:07stronger than ours. We don't have that either. We had some,
00:25:11and we definitely suffered serious damages in this war. Our air defense is
00:25:15not at our own level, it's a mistake. It's much
00:25:19beyond our own level. See, we were engaged with all of NATO,
00:25:22we were engaged with an army that when it moves, countries fall.
00:25:26We fought. We shot down F-35s.
00:25:30We intercepted F-18s. These are things we broadcast the videos of ourselves.
00:25:34We shot down their planes. We're doing our job.
00:25:38It's not like that. It doesn't have a specific
00:25:42battlefield impact on us. The rest of our air defense is also
00:25:45indirect, meaning a very great engineering
00:25:48and scientific work has been done. May the soul
00:25:52of Martyr Hajizadeh rest in peace, who
00:25:55made these missile cities. Most of them, they say, were the
00:25:58result of the efforts of this great man. Through the process of geology,
00:26:02selecting
00:26:06very precise geographical locations, and a
00:26:09very massive and complex engineering process, he built these in such a way that
00:26:13they cannot be hit. That is, it still has no impact.
00:26:16You can't bring a city down. It has no specific
00:26:20military impact. The former
00:26:23Foreign Minister of India, in a comment in an online interview, had said
00:26:26that Iran's military
00:26:30capabilities are so amazing
00:26:33that they have astonished the entire Global South, how Iran is fighting.
00:26:37Meaning Iran has been able to do something that, I want to say,
00:26:40is beyond the imagination of the entire world. What
00:26:44the Islamic Republic of Iran has done is still the handiwork of the great
00:26:47Khomeini. The "We Can" motto is still
00:26:50reverberating after, for example, 50 years,
00:26:53an Indian is saying it. Maybe we can, you know.
00:26:57It still echoes. Iran has shown that you can, you just need
00:27:01to. I gave an example, I said that person was saying about these slaves
00:27:05who wanted to start an uprising in Latin America, he had said the hardest part
00:27:08of our uprising was the part where we told the slaves, "You can
00:27:12not be slaves." He said this was the hardest part. When they accepted
00:27:15a process, for example, military tactics, like how to escape, how to
00:27:19organize, how to arm themselves. The first part is he says, "You are not a slave."
00:27:22Really, Imam did this. Some
00:27:25see Imam's simple words and then say, "The words are very simple."
00:27:29The point is precisely that they are very simple. Exactly.
00:27:32A person who only understands the language will feel it
00:27:35deeply in their soul. Sir, in
00:27:38'58, when Carter, who was a good man for Americans,
00:27:42was the best American president
00:27:45by these definitions, it was Kennedy and Carter, who were the best
00:27:49of the best. It's interesting that in both the 15th of Khordad incident
00:27:53and the 1979 Revolution incident, these two were present.
00:27:55And Imam Khomeini has a saying that he says, "The American president should know
00:27:59that no one is more hated by the Iranian people than him." Truly,
00:28:03in both the 15th of Khordad massacre and the massacres that occurred in
00:28:061977-78, these two "good" presidents were there. Imam
00:28:10simply said, "We can deal with these Americans." All these words are the same. Meaning Hajizadeh,
00:28:14who now,
00:28:17Nima is saying, Martyr Amir Mousavi, may God's
00:28:21mercy be upon him, when you look at all of them, they are all people who, when Imam was saying
00:28:24these words, either they were newly born or some of them were born a few
00:28:28years later, for example, after '42, a few years later, they were born
00:28:32around this recent period, 30, early 40s. These are the people
00:28:36who say they are exactly the products of Imam's words.
00:28:39May God's mercy be upon him. Now, look, it has
00:28:42more manifestations. We can make some
00:28:46estimates that the Americans
00:28:49really have this ammunition. Are they deceiving us?
00:28:52We said the logic at first, there is no logic in them deceiving
00:28:56us. It makes no difference to us. They also know very well,
00:28:59they know exactly what they fought with, who they fought with, how
00:29:03they fought. But where is the logic?
00:29:06You can go back a bit to the Ukraine war,
00:29:09the Russia-Ukraine war. If you examine
00:29:13it, you will indeed encounter this shortage
00:29:16very well. These were sometimes weapons
00:29:20that were very effective in that war. Defensive ones,
00:29:23defensive and offensive ones, like the ATACMS ammunition that I
00:29:27mentioned. These are very effective. In a period like
00:29:30Kuwait, which targeted our dear province of Khuzestan,
00:29:34these would be fired from Ukraine
00:29:37at Russian cities.
00:29:39Yes and it was a real pain for the Russians.
00:29:43But even then, he couldn't with that infinite
00:29:46number the way the US army
00:29:49appears in narratives, in images,
00:29:52in movies, in books. Trump said we have
00:29:56ammunition forever. Exactly that one layer
00:29:59yes, they couldn't provide it. And
00:30:03now, one of those who is very deeply and
00:30:06very seriously involved with this reduction
00:30:10in defensive ammunition is Ukraine. And its last
00:30:13request was made just two or three days ago,
00:30:16asking for several hundred Patriot missiles from the United
00:30:20States, and the United States completely, meaning
00:30:23it rejected it, saying no, we can't because our reserves are low, and now
00:30:27Ukraine's defense is completely defenseless. I said
00:30:30last night about defense, see.
00:30:32What's the difference between us and them now? See, that's truly a proxy.
00:30:36It's a proxy for America and NATO, fighting the Russians.
00:30:38And it was getting ready. At the time this war
00:30:42started, many
00:30:46condemned the Russians as an aggressor country and so on. But Putin
00:30:49had a meeting with Mr. Shahid,
00:30:53and he told them there that if you didn't attack,
00:30:57they would attack you. I am now.
