Yeah, yeah isy yeah, hello, hello, hello. We are here to see what in the world the President is about to say about the war in. Israel Uh, he should be starting momentarily. I Don't really quite understand what's going on, but the Market's actually looking pretty good.
The market can now for two days in a row. Monday Tuesday Both looking pretty good. Tomorrow we have, uh, some inflation reports. Thursday We have some inflation reports.
It's start of earning season so there's a lot of movement. A lot of this, a lot of that, so it'll It will definitely be interesting to see what the President has to say about it. He should be coming on the stage in about a minute. Uh, but if you've ever paid attention to any of the President's previous commentary and public speeches and all that, uh, I Don't know if he's actually been on time once, so uh, we might have to go over some stuff just to kill a little bit of the time in between now.
and like when he actually actually starts? Uh, but we'll see. We'll see. We'll see. I vote for a wardrobe malfunction? What? what? Um, I Don't know if you're saying my Mal my wardrobe malfunction or the President's or maybe both.
Maybe you're voting on both? Uh, I'm not I'm not quite sure. Before we get rocking with everything obviously. Uh, don't forget to smash the like button. Don't forget to subscribe.
Uh, it helps out a lot. Liking subscribing it, it is completely free. Um I do want to let you know Uh, just as we're going into this, I Kind of made my first like active, degenerate trade of the day. I was waiting for the market to dip back into the Emma Cloud So pretty much since 9:40 As you can see we were outside.
outside, outside, outside, outside and then at 12:20 we started to dip back in and then I was like okay, wait for the dip back in but that's just your kind of like First Signal wait for the push back out and then maybe we could see it a little bit better on the 5 minute we started a push back out. so I actually took a long position into this ball are at 1250 I did post that on Locals Mc. Locals.com um if you're interested in it but uh I have a a play that I believe expires tomorrow October 11th Yeah, today's the 10th so it's a 1 DTE trade. Um, but I was just waiting for an opportunity and pretty much all day I missed the boat because it was just so strong and I didn't want to chase it.
Yeah, maybe at 1050 you could have taken this, but it was so far away that I don't know if taking that type of trade time and time again really would have worked itself out. Uh, but once again, this is for the overall. Market I was just waiting for some form of a pullback, but obviously very, very strong. Yeah, that might seem weird and in a weird in a strange sense, it is weird.
Uh, but really, if you look at it historically, uh, sometimes conflict can actually be really good for the markets. Uh, Lockie Martin Doing well over the past two days? Uh General Dynamics Doing well over the past two days? Uh RTX Ron Doing well over the past two days? Uh, nooc. This is north of Gram, so these are all like Aerospace defense contractor type of plays. Uh, obviously doing well. Oil did. Pop Oil's now holding at 86. oil was bleeding off into the weekend. Then obviously on the announcement of what's going on in in Israel.
Now just to add a little bit of context to that, Israel itself is not a massive oil producing country, but the fact that it's elevated is telling you that the market is saying oh, okay, like this might end up. Uh, the conflict could end up spreading to local countries such as Iran Iraq what's going on in Saudi Arabia It could spread to oil producing countries, so prices elevated a little bit right now. Um, so we're going to see how that ends up playing out. Uh, obviously there are related oil companies.
Exxon is XOM Chevron is CVX Oxidal Petroleum's Oxy. There's Marathon There's a lot like with that. The one that's really been on my radar just because it's been doing very well lately is Palente Teer. Um, you could argue that.
this is in the world of Defense So it's um, a big data analytics company that about 60% of its revenue is directly coming from the US government. Um, they do a lot of stuff I Don't even think it's like publicized of what they do, but I know it's in the world of AI Big Data Data Analytics and they get millions and millions and millions of dollars from the US government and other government organizations. I Don't have this play like I'm not long I'm not short I don't have calls I don't have puts, but it's just something that's recently really on my watch list. so I'll be paying attention a little bit more to that.
Uh, for today, the market. Hey, we're here. We're still kind of just generically holding. rum is flat Tesla coming down a little bit The Q's coming down a little bit.
Where are we at? Where are we at? Tesla You have rum. What else is going today? There's Nvidia How is Paler actually looking on the intraday strong day though thus far palent here coming down a little bit. Um, if we look at the options Market things are coming down I mean in terms of the zero DTE for the Spy, we're going flat. but in terms of the all expiration, definitely getting a little bit more bearish.
and then if you look at the cues, definitely getting a bit more bearish than the all expiration. but once again, the zero DT kind of holding pretty steady. Um, you have a call wall on the Q's up here at 372 and a hedge wall down here at 365. Uh so um, a little bit concerning in the that from 11:45 till now the options Market in all expiration getting beat up.
but once again, the teal line of the zero DT holding pretty constant. So you could argue that maybe the options Market is turning a little bit Yeah You could argue that but like it's nothing like massive I would say I would say like yeah, it's turning something worthwhile to know to. Maybe you could pay attention to it, speeding up or not speeding up something like that, but at this point in the day I think a lot of people are waiting to see what Biden has to say. There's seemingly a slew of fed speakers doing their thing. I do have this volume on? um I'll turn the volume on just in case like this. Um, he starts I don't know he was supposed to start a couple minutes ago, but he's literally always late. Uh, so just waiting on Biden to speak if you're joining in right now I mean we were told it's going to start at 1M but this is President delivering remarks on the terror terrorist attacks in Israel Uh, in between the morning show and this kind of like specialty show, I was doing a bit more of a deep dive into just some of the recent updates with all this stuff and I didn't realize that Harvard students. Whoa.
Look at that across the board. What just happened Spy: Q's Nvidia P Everything simultaneously just took a hit. What was that? What was that? What was that? What was that? interesting? Everything simultaneously just sold. What did Biden start speaking? Not that I'm seeing quite yet.
dude, we are dipping and we're dipping hard. What is this interesting? What do we have going on? Mi Amigo? Interesting. Did I feel like there is some form of breaking news? I mean across the board? What? Am I missing? What Am I missing? Uh. I've been asked by a number of: CEOs if Harvard would release a list of the members of each of the Harvard organizations that have issued the letter assigning sole responsibility for Hamas heinous act to Isel so as to ensure that none of us, uh, inadvertently hire any of their Uh members.
If in fact, the members support the letter they have released, the names of the signatories should be made public so their views are publicly known would should not be able to hide behind a corporate. Shield when issuing statements supporting the actions of terrorists who we now learn have beheaded babies among other inconceivably Despicable acts that is crazy. Large number of Harvard student organizations blaming Israel solely for Hamas terrorist attacks killing 700 civilians. Can't imagine who would want to identify with such a group.
Harvard Parents talk to your educated kids about this. Um I Guess just because they're Harvard that doesn't mean that they're necessarily smart. This is disgusting. These are all the groups that signed it the Jews for Liberation a Jewish group signed it What? that is So like, how how dumb could they be it I Tweeted this out but it feels like it's an attention seeking look at me type of a thing.
Hasbullah says targets Israel Tanks with missiles uh what is this one? What is this one? A few important un comfortable truths that need to be said to have an honest discussion: Hamas is pretty much the Gaza branch of Isis. Chanting free Palestine really means kill the Jews Living in Israel Peace between Israel in the Arab world is possible Muslims are not evil and Islam is not the problem. Lots of uneducated people spreading anti-semitic hii, uh, branding it in Israel Criticism: Have a nice day. Pretty base take from Tom there right out of the gate. Caroline Allison is admitting to committing fraud with SPF Gary way and sing in the amount of approximately $4 billion. Don't forget that the FTX Uh case is currently going on. Um, what is this one Caroline Ellison for Alam Media CEO and girlfriend SPF on the witness stand against him. Did you commit crimes at Al Media? Yes.
Did Sam and I Sam and I and others. Did you commit crimes alone? No, they were committed with Sam He directed me to commit these crimes. Whoa! Mia Khalifa Lio After from Playboy after voicing support for heras, how stupid can this lady get? She's as dumb as these Harvard people like why is there just so much stupidity right now? allegedly Jason Mimoa appeared on the Aquaman dressed as Johnny Depp aiming to get Amber herd fired. Whoa.
All right, is this guy starting anytime soon? Dude is the market dude. look at that dip. What? I feel we're getting very very distracted toight or I guess we. It's exclusively me.
but uh, what? am I missing That us may deploy a second aircraft carrier near Israel that's the Wall Street Journal the US May deploy a second aircraft carrier near Israel Us defense official said an escalation of the US military effort to deter Regional powers from joining the war between Hamas and Israel us may deploy second aircraft carrier near Israel Is that what pushed this down? Especially at a moment where we're all trying to make sense of a lot of Senseless uh things. But let's start with Israel In terms of thinking about the geopolitical implications, but how you think it's long and short term affect markets? Well, Biden is I think Israel No, he's not. Obviously it's a it's a huge tragedy but you have to put Randy where are you seeing that in a larger geopolitical context which is we now have possibly three theaters where we're going to have geopolitical challenges. We've got the Middle East in Israel obviously, the Ukraine and Russia and at some point down the road Taiwan and China.
So it's a really I I would say since certainly, since I was born, it might be the most threatening and challenging geopolitical environment that I've ever seen because you have four nuclear Powers Uh, three of whom are led by sociopaths and that would be China Russia and North Korea. Obviously, those leaders have zero accountability. You said you have it on FM radio. How's it not? How do you have it on FM radio when it's not live? I'm confused.
Uh, someone would be talking about it. So let's just search Biden and see what comes up. I Don't think it's live latest. uh uh uhuh no there's no way it's live. yet. it is not live. Uh, we're we're just waiting. I mean I'm I'm on the official White House they're live stream right now I don't I Don't think anything's live right now I'm not seeing anything uh Washington Post live stream has an active yeah but if he's not up.
I I mean you could turn a camera on. That doesn't mean the president's talking. just a guard came out. Yeah, Okay, I mean waiting is one thing it.
I'm just wondering if he's actually talking. uh, where are we at uh breaking IDF Spokesperson comments on the missiles launched from Lemonon IDF Tanks have now attacked observation post of the terrorist organization Hasbullah in response to the launches carried out from the Lebanese territory a short time ago. IDF Tanks attack two observation posts of the terrorist organization hasb the IDF is prepared for all scenarios and will continue to protect the residents of the state of Israel uh air raid sirens sounding in Northern Israel that two hours ago Uh, it would be a mistake to stop our support to the Palestinian Authority this is Eu's Burell Ellison says Bank Benrey directed her to commit crimes Jesus could must create our right. That's not important for right now.
All right, we are just waiting. We are waiting. we are waiting you. But we really don't want this to go on for a long time.
Okay, there's a lot there I'm going to mul over because that's really interesting. It shows you how quickly the Um sentiments around the situation can change overnight. I mean there was this idea and and I'm going to jump over to Patrick again just because I saw I'm going to jump over to a couple people because I saw the hands raised. Um, but yeah, this makes me think a lot about like that.
Whether or not Hamas is one of their objectives was to undermine the uh, the normalization from the first place. That's what I said actually in the last space. remember I Do remember sir, Go is that did you want to jump in quickly on on that point? Well yeah I Remember we were discussing what possible objectives they could have and I said they've already achieved the objective. it's to destroy the normalization.
At the time we were trying not to speculate but uh yeah I I told you look they I think Also the calculus is that Netanyahu uh is so predictable like he fell right into the Trap and this is the you know and the one other thing I'd like to say is uh, this thing is going to go on for longer 54,000 This guy is so popular it's already been planned and you'll see it's going to be at least a month the length of time things going to take. There's there's there's plan they they they have already stuck piles. We don't have to worry about Goad S just to add to that. um Galant posted um and I can't find it now.
But basically he said that he expects this to take this offensive in Gaza to take weeks if not months and that was from Galant Who is the ministry Market still going down. He also said we are moving. Something happened at one right here at 1 p.m. wanted it0 de from what thought. What's interesting though is the options Market Bouncing back in the cues. Aass will no longer be sorry. This war will take weeks or months. Sorry P Goad? No, that's fine I Mean Galent has has made uh, you know, lots of um, what did Biden anything strong statements about this and uh, the other one was about the um, you know, no food, no fuel, no supplies of water.
uh I think along those lines I'm paraphrasing um and Nanyu himself has been pretty, uh, clear on on what he feels about the matter. He's shared a couple of those videos on Twitter I' I've retweeted them just with the English translation. Um, about, you know and it's literally just clips of the destruction of GS and buildings from air strike. So um, yeah, this is.
it's interesting. really. Now we're sort of at this: I don't think it's going I I would say it's not only just what Nyah who wants to do I think it's quite clear that there is. You know AAR don't want this to go unanswered, um and want the the the strip to be you know, properly, sort of engaged.
um what? that looks like it remains unclear. but it's it's you know the Israelis are drawing up 300,000 members, reservists, and so on. So it's it's not going to be light. um Patrick Do you want to? Um, do you want to chime in? Yeah, Um, this is.
This is a bit of a rough one. The IDF has taken uh, reporters and members of the press into one of the Border communities kibitz, Kafara. They've just pulled out 40 infants and small children, some of whom have have been decapitated. We've we've already discussed this, but there's no like actual video footage yet that anyone's been posted or anything like that.
Well, the Western Press has now picked it up which no evidence. MDS What? What is the Western press if I may, what's the what's the is that Israeli no I'm seeing it on Fox I'm seeing ABC West Press right? Okay, well I was just going to do a post on that myself because the reporter who the reporter who was on the video coverage making that statement is kind of backtracking and saying that she hasn't actually seen it herself. She was just told it by the Israeli um intelligence. So um, that's just an extra element to look at I'm I'm going to post that myself in a few minutes so we'll have to see what the source is.
but if the The Source seems to be uh Israeli uh ass. But anyway, that's something to when we see if that's accurate. No, nobody is going to object them going into Gaza and burning It To The Ground Yes, a lot of people object. that is again.
Again, that is like inciting genocide isn't it? So we shouldn't be doing that this space. Let's move on. No, I'm not inciting genocide. I'm telling you what people's reaction to something like trying to say that it's going to be if if that is true again I Don't think Patrick's saying it I'm not saying he's he's saying that it. You know if it is true, you know if it is reaffirmed multiple times over that that has happened, then the response from the Israeli side is going to be SP picking I Think we might bounce out of this strong um, you know that's not what he said said no one. That's not what he said though that's not what he said. What I said was the reaction from people to something like that is going to be their the willingness to countenance violence in response to that will go through the roof. That's that's a com Patrick Patrick That's a fair.
That's a fair comment to make. If it's real and it's not fake and it's not being manipulated and we don't know we're going to look at it, then the reaction will be harsh. That's a fair thing to say. but to say Burn It To The Ground I Just don't like these.
Administration Expected to announce winners of 7 billion Regional hydrogen Hub grants that's the level of of outrage we're reaching here. If this proves to be accurate, possible to say a sentence off I Get that. I get that. but we're not prop promoting genocide in this space.
You can do that in different spaces. Let me go to. Um. but I understand equally your point about the language burning to the ground.
Anyway, let me go to. let me go to far I Agree with you. Let me let me go to far farz farz what's your? Let me go to farz farz. What's your thoughts on the ground? All right? Uh so uh, just the last few um uh, pieces of breaking news is the Israeli um uh air air uh Israeli warplanes have been bombarding the Imam mosque, Imam Ali mosque and the houses of Abu Ina Street in Jabalia and there are multiple casualties and injuries that are being uh pulled out right now.
and uh, the Israeli military spokesman has uh has put out a statement that we have uh distributed a thousands of pieces of Weaponry to the settlements to strengthen them during this um, um, confrontation. um I Think this is in regards to uh, the West Bank And finally there is um bombardment of uh Rafa non-stop in the East and the Western areas where there are multiple casualties the bombardment has not. It is unknown how many Cas options picking up ZTE hit a question. how uh, how do people think the people's reaction will be to seeing actual videos of dead babies? specifically Palestinian ones rather than Israeli ones? It's not really I mean babies are babies Dude.
Holy to go over to. How are these people so cold? It's a bab? Um, yeah, how you doing? Um, just a few a few comments if I may, um one Twitter X Put out a statement from the Safety I tweeted a while ago that they're actually working on ensuring that these actually some of these videos do do not come out. um which I'm happy about and I think everyone should be happy about um, the decapitation of children I Know some people here want to, you know, deny any kind of butchering of Jewish babies that's not new in this Century or last century. Um, Unfortunately, the app is kind of annoying. The space I did I can't see who was speaking earlier. there was someone who spoke actually at Great length about what's going on in the whole region and you know the different Arab states and Leadership and I actually find the Diplomatic part far more interesting. I Think you know we're talking about right now in a sense of a a fog of war and we're looking at the trees and we'll find out tomorrow. Half the things we discussed today will be uh, inaccurate or misquoted or whatever.
Um, because that's kind of how things are when we speak about things that are, um, in a war while it's happening. Um, however, though, there is something more interesting going on. Um, if you can tell me who was the gentleman that was speaking earlier, but about kind of just the UAE and and the Saudi kind of the shift that's going on in the rhetoric. um, yeah, I will.
um I will let you know who who was who was that I I was actually I actually really? I actually really enjoyed that. Want to do with space just on that? topic? Um I find it far more fascinating? Uh because I think what we talk, you know I prer to talk about peace going dip on the not so much the spy Spy not selling anymore butes to me I would appreciate it because I I was actually I think those are the kind of conversations I think that should be had because these are things the comments and statements that he made about. uh, you know UAE Why? You know they didn't even recognize my existence as a Jew in Israel literally and it's actually safer probably for me to wear information. Um I Want to give Joh Spener a chance to Jo Chim in but I have a question for you just on the Elon mus thing.
Uh, so is it just the uh Israeli babies? or is it going to B videos of Palestinian babies as well? Um, well. Le I Know you're trying to make a moral equivalent and pretending that there's been okay guys, this is pissing me off now. Um I don't want to talk about that subject anymore as uh, as uh, significant as it is I'm sorry to be uh I'm not going to please everyone, trust me. There's a lot of complaints on both sides about this, but uh, try and balance a conversation like this and come back to me about that about how easily it is.
Um, I'm open to all it is. but I don't want questions like that Thanks Syria girl because it's not helping. and I get your stance on that matter and I appreciate it and I appreciate yours as well. Um, and I'm doing my best to balance this situation right.
Um, but please? um John over to you I P you I've been trying to follow the latest developments as well. Glad to be back in the space. I'm really working on a piece myself on what the challenges would be um, if a if and when the ground. um, try predict when it will I'm trying to Major challenges based on past operations in Gaza and recent Modern urban operations, the massive challenges that that will will face and what we'll see ahead of us. the Q's are still catching a bid right now. Interesting, and what do you think we are expecting? then? um, spy. think that. um, uh.
let me think. um, so what we we saw, we saw strikes from Israel onto the port of Gaz. Other other reports earlier today said the city was essentially largely surrounded completely. Uh, what about the uh situation with um, uh that? John How much do you think that that's going to play into? Oh, actually did I ask you this I want to ask you this if I didn't already Uh, one of the biggest stories I think for me today and Mario shared uh on his profile uh and I think it's in the nest if you want to check it out.
others is the Pentagon said that they are going to be using Special Forces to help with hostage rescue? Um I did I ask you about that? Yeah, no I didn't I have so I have heard about that I haven't seen the actual Source I know we're the the team and the space is so good on waiting for multiple um, you know, sources and double-checking the things. I I mean to me, it's absolutely logical. Really the opposite. The opposite spectrums of this conversation is boots on the ground versus support Um, every citizen of once you're a citizen of a nation.
That means your nation will do everything possible within the political and physical capabilities to retrieve hostages of your State uh Israel of course should be in the lead of any hostage rescue operation that does or does not happen. but you can guarantee because of the and I've heard different numbers of US citizens that would include the so not Boot ground versus support intelligence support um, physical support both in equipment and operators in my sense. I I don't I think it's staying as gray as possible as needed. Any country would to include the US but I don't think it's too far of a stretch and I'm really trying.
I Did an interview just a couple minutes ago trying to to balance that line of reasonable expected what you'll never know about, what we'll never know about. but I that is not an off the table. um especially with that statement that us not you know uniformed personel. but US forces would be used if you're joining right now.
Uh, we're just waiting for Biden to take the stage. He was supposed to take the stage 27 minutes ago. He's always late. always always always late.
It's hon it's so up. Yeah I'm just ever made on this situation is going to unfold like and what the IDF is going to be encountering along with what the Hamas um side May well do in terms of you know responses. the drones thing that I think it was you or or maybe it was someone else mentioned that the other day um about about the role of drones in this which I think is going to make it very different to like 2006 it was me. oh it was you. okay it was you. um so yeah that I think that was a really good point and and and I'm I'm I'm well not interested I'm I'm faithful and worried about what role that could have. uh going forward. um but I wanted to get to Sarah who's had her hand up for ages and then I might quickly go over some of the more recent updates we're just waiting for Biden to start.
Um I know that I'm waiting into slightly controversial Waters but I want to kind of discuss this from a a bird's eyee view are still catching a Bid Tech is strong right here. Look at this recovery. I've been listening to the conversations where Israelis have been asked like what do you think is going to happen or what is the government saying and people say things like Gaza will be destroyed this is an endgame moment. It's not to be uh, genocidal, but it's also Al I think important and I think important for everybody in the region.
maybe who's unfamiliar with Israeli culture to understand that declaring war upside 43 in 50 years you didn't in 2014. you haven't done it in any other inion. I hear people commenting or making commentary that reflects behavior of Israelis in the past like incursions and and I I just think it's important to understand like that we should be discussing this in the in the terms of a proper War rather than you know I think that's a good point no I think that's a fair observation. Um, you know this is a very different situation to what we've seen in the past several years.
Um, you know. As as I said before, and as I think we've discussed here, Sarah you may well have been part of that conversation. You know Hamas took quite a lot of inspiration I think from Holo in 2006, particularly John I think you might have mentioned that as well and Patrick and and they you know they' they've become more a more potent force, not still on the level of he. I I Think it's really hard unless any who follows this all the time with which I'm not.
Um, at least you know Islamic Military um factions? Um, but Hezbollah seems a bit more formal in the way it conducts itself. You know, when it releases information whil. Tamas doesn't really seem like a very consistently updating what they're doing, what they plan to do. Um, so and then you've got things like the Gaza What? 50-day war in 2014, but you Israel didn't classify that as a war? Um, is that is that is.
that is that right? Do I get a chance to reply to that? I Just want to add to that. yeah, we'll bounce over to you in one second. John Sorry, go for it. s oh I just lost my train of thought.
but no is Israel didn't classify it as a war. um and uh oh no. I I it's okay. don't worry I'm just I'm just checking.
Um okay, let's go over right guys. Um, what's gonna happen is wa I know it. What? One second, one second Sarah So what's going to happen is Mario going be join theace it may crash In the hypothetical situation that it does crash, we're going to restart the space immediately, so jump in, rejoin the space. will be back on. we'll have the same okay I think Sarah's listening yeah, she can't hear me I'll I'll drop her down I'll bring her back up. Um so if the space does crash, just join the next space. We'll start it immediately and we'll continue back with the conversation with the same panel. um sorry John you yeah thanks uh thanks s um yeah.
Hopefully Mar doesn't disrupt but John go through John Can you hear me? yeah I was muted okay I thought it yeah please. What? do what do you want to no I I' like to rep reply to that I mean what could be viewed as criticism I'll make the statement again that um, the biggest prediction of what we will see in a ground Invasion into Gaza especially based on previous Hamas capabilities is both the 2014 incursion into Gaza and modern history of the evolution of the character John sorry John someone might, um, okay, well John sorts that. Okay, he's resetting. Um so uh.
I just want to share something actually quite interesting I did remember what I wanted to say I finish sorry. Go ahead. no, it's okay. What? I What I wanted to say is from the military perspective.
Over all of these incursions, there has been T between the military and the government, the military has wanted to. Everything got hit right at time. They've gone back in in and the government has said no, you need to pull back We need to stop. We're going to do a ceasefire.
This is this guy ever gonna start. Sarah's breaking up as well I'm going try To give it like 10 more minutes I suppose try again and then we have to drop because I don't I'll try one more time I don't know why I get so frustrated but what the the point in having a time? Okay I'm just gonna talk if if it doesn't work I'll try later that there from a military perspective. every time there has been an incursion, there has also been tension between the military and the government where the military has wanted to basically retake Gaza or somehow reach an endgame and the government has pulled them back and said no, um, we need a negotiated solution I'm not even sure, but it's kept the status quo. So I think that the fact that that tension no longer exists that the military has cart Blane we're really going to see an absolutely different game plan that cannot be compared not to anything because from what I hear from soldiers from Miss Aviv from my environment is Gaza will be raised I if if if Hamas gives themselves up, the people of Aza will be fine.
If Hamas takes it to the end, it goes to the end. So so Sarah with with your observation and the distinction that you've drawn that this is wartime and the response should be commiserate and nonrepresentative of past response, what then would you say to maybe an opposing point of view that considered the asymmetric total of deaths both uh, civilian and otherwise that have happened in the past and then the respon need diaper change in terms of death total. j How do you think that that works toward peace? With the opposing point of view, it doesn't. The opposing point of view is destroyed and there is a winner and there is a loser. And whatever dialogue we all had in the past that we expected of Israel This asymmetric War I think Israel views itself as having withhold withheld much of its strength, most of its strength and made the efforts. and I'm not saying they were good or bad efforts and I'm not putting judgment on it. and I'm not saying what they're doing now is good or bad. but I'm saying that yes, it's asymmetric and so Israel will win and that's the only point of view that people really behavoral.
Economist p I I thank you thank you sir. If your objectivity or are trying to be as as as as reasonable as you can I know what this is going to be making other people feel um, but John Uh, go ahead. I sorry for the technical glitch you had. Yeah, sorry about that.
no. I mean I just don't agree As a as a student of war in general, um Sarah's trying to make an argument that previous objectives um in the Israel's wars were not con that were all constrained um and by constraint especially in urban Warfare that is the constraint on the use of force. There is even though This Is War even though this is in response to the evil, the the bad things that cond jump in sorry John I Want to Break in with some rather important breaking news to be honest. Uh, all right, just let me finish though afterwards.
Yeah yeah, evil. but I just wanted to share from the Um the UN agency that's in Gaza that uh, they've converted uh Emergency Shelters in Gaza with about 177,000 people that are seeking Refuge that's up from the 123 we saw the other day. Uh, that comes from Channel 11. Uh, there's also been an air strike on President of the Usint few other explosions around southern Gaza agree.
Uh, the IDF has published some interesting footage between Battalion and four. Um Palestinian Fighters near the Zikim Beach. Earlier today, the gunman were tracked by the Magelan unit and the 52nd armor Battalion that comes from the Times of Israel reporter. Uh.
and then the Israeli Army's home front asked the residents of the town of Um tler on the border with Lebanon to leave. so there is quite a lot of activity. Oh, actually I'll read this one just because it's US Embassy uh in beut US Citizens throughout the region throughout the region should continue to take caution and avoid travel to the Lebanon Israel borders. so the US isn't telling people to leave Lebanon completely.
But to avoid Sun Lebanon we recommend his US citizens enroll in the uh Smart Traveler Enr enrollment program or Step to Receive alert. So if you have anyone in Lebanon uh maybe tell them about step uh I can tell that I can share that with anyone who who is interested in in in that um and then actually oh I might sh yeah sorry I was I I pressed on the video without intending to uh there is a a lot of demonstrations or like Gatherings of people in Jordan um um um on the situation I'm not entirely sure I can't find sorry I'm trying to find what they're Gathering Okay in the center of a man in support of Gaza that comes from war Monitor um and yeah, so there's a few different updates. um I don't know if Mario is gonna join as soon I think there may have been a couple of glitches because he was trying to join always joining. so that maybe was why some people I have some breaking news actually according there. go ahead see. go ahead. go ahead. According to Channel 12 there estimations, they are quoting the cabinet uh sources from the cabinet that the war in Gaza May last months um and marriage just tweeted that the head of the Israeli defense Ministry is that is that the same as the Israeli Minister um I presume.
So so the Army isled from um so that kind of plays into what we were going around back and forth with before. for your update. Uh I do want to be fair to John to let him finish his point and then I see Ryan a fellow member of the team is is up so I might go over to him but John I'm not seeing anything com there. There is no historical presence that says that.
That says despite the fact that this is a different objective than previous Go's incursions, there's a a ton of information that can predict the challenges. Uh, what? Hamas capabilities will do what the IDF will do The geopolitical aspects nobody is saying and I think it's unreasonable even historically to say because of this situation because of the declaration of war war that Israel will not follow in the execution of a ground assault. the law of war and will will turn will raise the ground like all those things aren't helpful. and actually there's nothing that will says that that that is the prediction that it will be a dredged in you know style attack on Gaza I I Strongly believe that is not the case and there's no prediction of that both past, present or future in the approach.
even in war. Um yeah that Israel will go that route. no that's fair. um I appreciate that that that that perspective.
um but Ryan you are you are looking for this upside Gap you are with us now. Hope you had a good sleep. How are you? Well anything? Thank you for having me and shout out to the team who's doing such a fantastic job on the back end. I Just want to remind you guys that, uh, we're waiting President Biden to come and give a speech in shortly.
He's gotten off the phone for the fourth time now with Benjamin Netanyahu to discuss what the plans are for the next step so we're awaiting that I Just want to remind you guys and I Just want to remind you guys. Also, one more thing: U Mario and his team are doing a fantastic job posting news on his page if you're with us. I Highly, highly suggest you guys turn on notifications. It's literally the fastest new source I Don't know how much longer I'm supposed to. Everything is being vetted so I highly suggest you guys do that even if you guys are aren't going to step away for a second turn on notifications to jump in there. Um, thank you for that. Yeah. I Just wanted to also say just personally.
um I I know some of you were like have I seen this? Have you seen that? I Try and focus on managing the stage to make sure that we have a coherent conversation and it's flowing. Uh, and I you know that's why the team behind the scenes is so integral with providing all the updates and getting us so then I can share them with you so we try and balance. You know, front end to back end? That's just it's there's a lot of work going on behind running this room. Uh, so if it sometimes looks a bit messy, it's just because we're all human and trying to manage that.
Um Patrick I saw your hand raised? did you want to add something? uh and I'll I'll I'll be careful here because I we're we're seeing some things that just they will provoke a reaction. and while I think it under normal circumstances, I I think Colonel Spencer is exactly right if we keep seeing, you know I'm looking for this spy to pop 43560 and then get back up to 4366 looking for this doar just kind of shot the SS Rather than take them prisoner when we reach Doca we machine gun prison because they saw what they done. At some point people just say no, we're not going to deal with this. You know, screw this, we're not doing it.
Just kill them. Yeah and I I am genuinely afraid that just no, sorry. The things we're seeing come out of here are just absolutely horrific and they're the kind of things that do generate that kind of response. They really are.
um I appreciate that you know I have a bit of breaking news that has to do with John's previous Point although I think they um IDF spokesperson is informing the public that a few very crowded um um uh I'm missing a word again. uh um compounds have been uh, annihilated Hamas was operating out of them and and he thought we wouldn't hurt them and they're adding that the amount of inj more minutes then we have to end it. We're not just going to sit here for that. the um if you think about it makes sense.
There have been more than a thousand rocket attacks uh last night and there are less than 800. um or I think a little more than that's less than one dead I The point is, hang on I Think the point isn't yeah? let's go to break. Sorry. Got some breaking news.
Just published a statement. two Palestinian militants were were killed inim um, several kilometers away from Goa. Thank you Unice Um and no good to your point I um I Understand that? um I think no. But the point I was making is that the IDF has hit a few compounds Hamas thought were protected and they're not and they're And not only were they hit, they were also hit with a relatively low death though. Okay, well thank you for sharing that. uh Point um I think what's going to be uh, more important is when the Israelis I guess into Gaza and they begin going into some of these buildings if not not completely, um, 15 minutes will be heavy rocket towards Israel because the p Just issued a picture showing the the nth of Bah which remarks like the nine o'clock they will launch a lot of rockets. Thank you! Um I think the other thing I just want to emphasize in in in all of this is that this is where information Warfare is relevant. It's where options picking up starting to curl here in the SP things as well.
right? What? Patrick Telling us about the news and now what? Uh, you know Yonas is showing with us and noer is saying as well. These are all parts that play in all right folks. Uh, my apologies. Even though this isn't my fault, Biden was supposed to start speaking 45 minutes ago, he didn't Uh, this is unfortunately par for course.
I don't know what to do I don't want to keep you guys sitting here forever. He was supposed to speak at 1: P.m. ET it's now 1:45 I'm going to drop and maybe we'll just come back if he ever actually speaks. but I mean I'm just here he he 45 minutes ago.
This is absolute, especially when there's such important stuff going on. So uh, we're going to drop this for now and if he ever speaks, maybe we'll stream again. So uh, my apologies for you guys waiting. Unfortunately I have no control over the President actually speaking when he should.
um I guess it's maybe just taken a little bit too long for his medicine to actually kick in it. If you ask me, it's a disgrace. but I'll catch you guys later and and I'll just kind of wait for this to actually happen. So that's it for right now.
I'll catch you guys later.
