00:00Okay, okay. So, I heard you. I heard you. Nice. Let's go. Okay. So, I heard you. I didn't hear you. So, we gave you the opportunity. Now, let's get back to the talk. I heard you. I heard you. Okay, that's true. Now, let's sit down. Come on.
00:30Come on.
00:38Got it. Okay. Now, here's where we are. And so, I'm not one. I'm not one who likes to give back. Are you going to listen? Are you going to talk?
00:53Come on. You asked the question and now we're trying to answer it. What it seems like is perhaps you don't really want the answers because then you got to grapple with some really complicated issues.
01:06So, what do you want to talk about? Let's talk about it. Let's talk about it. Let's talk about it. You don't want to hear it. That's what you said. You don't want to hear it.
01:15Why are you standing up?
01:17No one can interview.
01:18So why don't we get this offline?
01:20Let's talk.
01:21Let's talk.
01:22Let's talk.
01:23Here we start.
01:24Here's the thing.
01:29Here's the thing.
01:30We've met with leaders.
01:32We've met with leaders in Palestine.
01:35Because I put the armed services here.
01:37So part of my job is to meet with leaders around the world
01:43so that we can figure out what's actually going on in the ground
01:47to not only protect American lives but also our allies
01:51and to do those things to keep us safe.
01:54And so we met with those folks, sat down,
01:57and asked the tough questions.
01:59I was able to ask Prime Minister Netanyahu
02:05what he was going to do about this humanitarian crisis.
02:10And I think as your representative, as your representative,
02:15you want us to have to answer those tough questions.
02:18We weren't able to ask the World Food Program.
02:21We were able to ask them what actually is going on in the ground.
02:25Because we hear things in social media.
02:27We hear things on TikTok.
02:31So what's actually going on on the ground?
02:33And so what we found out what's going on on the ground
02:36is that everyone, everyone, whether they are,
02:42and let me just make this point too.
02:45If you want to know about issues in St. Louis, who do you talk to?
02:49People in Washington, D.C., in California, or St. Louis?
02:53St. Louis, right?
02:56But, so if you want to talk about what's going on in the ground
03:01in the Middle East, you had to talk to people in the Middle East.
03:04And so that's what we did.
03:08I was able to make two congressional delegations
03:11so that we could find out exactly what's going on.
03:14And so that's exactly what we did.
03:17And what we found is that everyone, the takeaway was the same with everyone.
03:24We need to surge hate.
03:26We need to end the war.
03:29We need to return the hostages.
03:31And we need to give guys a viable future without the mind.
03:36Everyone.
03:37Everyone.
03:39Every single lead that we talked to.
03:47We talked to power.
03:48We talked to Israelis on the ground.
03:50We talked to Israelis on the ground.
03:52Everyone said the same thing.
03:54Surge hate.
03:56Yeah.
03:57In the war.
03:58Return the hostages.
04:00There are still 50 hostages.
04:0220 of them are still alive.
04:04Give thousands of hostages.
04:07Give thousands of viable future that doesn't include her minds.
04:14Because there's another thing you don't want to talk about.
04:18Let's talk about October 7th.
04:23October 7th was not just a terror attack.
04:35October 7th was an invasion.
04:38Oh, this is going to come out soon.
04:43I mean, you don't want to hear that.
04:46So, what Kamas leaders were doing when they preached Israel's wall, they sent their message to not only thousands, but also they were hoping that Arabs in Israel, who are Arab Israelis, would also rise up.
05:03But they didn't do that.
05:05As a matter of fact, they stayed more friendly with Israel after that horrible terrorist attack.
05:14So, what I say is, what I've said before, not what has been attributed to me on social media, because you don't find one quote from me that's different.
05:25First, we need to surge aid to make sure that people can stand by.
05:30We need to.
05:32You disagree with that?
05:34You disagree with that?
05:36We need to, in the war, we need to return every single hostages that the law has to go.
05:44We need to go.
05:45We need to go.
05:46Thank you, thank you for being here.
05:47Thank you, thank you for being here.
