Speaker 1: There is new video out showing Israel revealing an underground
Speaker 1: tunnel beneath the Shifa Hospital in Gaza. The Israeli Defense
Speaker 1: Forces and the Israeli Security Agency, the ISA and the
Speaker 1: Shinbet revealed on Sunday that soldiers had uncovered a deep
Speaker 1: and extensive tunnel shaft beneath the hospital and Gaza, which
Speaker 1: likely would lead to further tunnels beneath the facility. They
Speaker 1: put out an operational update revealing significant fifty five meter
Speaker 1: long terrace tunnel ten meters underneath the hospital conflicts itself.
Speaker 1: During the intelligence based operation, the tunnel entrance contained various
Speaker 1: defense mechanisms. If you want to know how amazing these
Speaker 1: tunnels are from a standpoint of the terrorists, then you
Speaker 1: need to understand exactly what and how they're built. These
Speaker 1: aren't just like little kid tunnels, if that's what you
Speaker 1: think they are. They're not even close to that. This
Speaker 1: is a complex system of tunnels. The tunnel entrance contained
Speaker 1: various defense mechanisms, including blastproof doors, as well as a
Speaker 1: firing hole an attempt by Hamas to block Israel forces
Speaker 1: from entering them altogether. For weeks, Israel have been telling
Speaker 1: the world about Hamas's cynical use of residents of Gaza
Speaker 1: and patients of the hospital as a human shield.
Speaker 2: And yet again here is more proof.
Speaker 1: Now, of course, I'm sure the mainstream media would not
Speaker 1: want to talk about this and wouldn't want you to
Speaker 1: know about it. That's exactly why we're talking about it
Speaker 1: right now, because you need to know about all of this.
Speaker 1: The Israeli Defense Forces also, once they got into the
Speaker 1: tunnel system, said that the operation is ongoing and being
Speaker 1: conducted carefully Alvin order to locate the dismantle Hamas's infrastructure
Speaker 1: within the hospital. You may not realize this, but this
Speaker 1: the hospital was actually built by Israel to take care
Speaker 1: of people that are Palestinian. The IDF and the ISA
Speaker 1: released the joint statement saying, quote based on IDF and
Speaker 1: ISA intelligence, IDF troops exposed this thirty five meter long
Speaker 1: terror tunnel ten meters deep underneath the hospital complex. A
Speaker 1: deep staircase leads to the entrance of the tunnel shaft,
Speaker 1: which consists of various defensive means, including these blastproof doors
Speaker 1: in a firing hole. Now, all of this was accompanied
Speaker 1: with video, and the video is incredible because the world
Speaker 1: should not be able to deny that this is there
Speaker 1: with the video proof. You couldn't make this in a
Speaker 1: couple days or thirty days to try to frame right
Speaker 1: is these psychos on the left would say, you can't
Speaker 1: do that.
Speaker 2: This type of door is used by Hamas terras.
Speaker 1: The IDF went on to say, and their organization of
Speaker 1: block Israeli forces from entering the command centers and the
Speaker 1: underground assets belonging to Hamas. The tunnel shaft was uncovering
Speaker 1: the area of the hospital underneath the shed, alongside a
Speaker 1: vehicle containing numerous weapons including RPGs, explosives.
Speaker 2: And fully automatic rifles.
Speaker 1: The IDF and the ISA forces are continuing to uncover
Speaker 1: the route of this tunnel from this hospital. The findings,
Speaker 1: they said on their joint statements, clearly proved that numerous
Speaker 1: buildings in the hospital's complex are used Numerous buildings in
Speaker 1: the hospital's complex are used by Hamas as cover for
Speaker 1: terrast infrastructure and activities. This is further evidence of the
Speaker 1: cynical manner Hamas uses the residence of the Gaza Strip
Speaker 1: as a human shield for their murderous terrast activities. Now,
Speaker 1: to be clear, these tunnels, there's no way you could
Speaker 1: build this type of infrastructure without okay, without people knowing
Speaker 1: about it. Without the citizens in and around you knowing
Speaker 1: about these tunnels, it would be impossible to build this,
Speaker 1: and only the terrorists know. The IDF has been exploring
Speaker 1: the tunnels slowly, as many are thought to be booby
Speaker 1: trapped and have claimed the lives of several Israeli soldiers already.
Speaker 1: Four different Israeli reservists were killed by a booby trapped
Speaker 1: tunnel ten days ago, and a combat engineer from the
Speaker 1: Elite Forces was killed on Saturday. Israel has been criticized
Speaker 1: for operating in the hospital by the world right because
Speaker 1: they're livid at the hospital. As one headline in the
Speaker 1: Washington Post, the hospital has been I think they said,
Speaker 1: surrounded or infiltrated by Israeli forces, like soldiers are combing
Speaker 1: through the hospital and implying that that's something that should
Speaker 1: never happen. Well, now you understand why. And Israel, of course,
Speaker 1: and the lefties of the world are criticizing them for
Speaker 1: operating in the hospital. Thank goodness, we have the video.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 1: The media will not be showing this video. That's why
Speaker 1: I'm telling you about it, and this is why you
Speaker 1: need to share it. With everybody. You know, the IDF
Speaker 1: has uncovered extensive evidence that Hamas used it as a
Speaker 1: base of operations. That's the first time we've heard the
Speaker 1: word base of operations. In other words, Hamas decided, and
Speaker 1: they're very smart as terrists, Okay, we're going to make
Speaker 1: our base at the hospital. We're going to have multiple
Speaker 1: tunnels from the hospitals. We're going to put our best
Speaker 1: weapons around in and around the hospitals. We're going to
Speaker 1: use multiple rooms within the hospital complex. And Israel would
Speaker 1: never dare come after us at a hospital. And so
Speaker 1: that's why we're going to do it. And that's exactly
Speaker 1: why they did it. That's why they did it. Evidence
Speaker 1: that AMAS again used it is a mass of operations,
Speaker 1: corroborating earlier reports by groups like Amnesty International that have
Speaker 1: also confirmed this. So if you think this is propaganda
Speaker 1: from Israel and the sad parts, I'm even having to
Speaker 1: say that now because there's so much misinformation out there, right,
Speaker 1: there's an insane amount of information out there. They're now saying, hey,
Speaker 1: corroborating early reports by groups like Amnesty International are also
Speaker 1: confirming this. If you need a second source, now, what
Speaker 1: is the media saying about this. Well, let me first
Speaker 1: tell you what Benjamin Netyahu had to say on Mark
Speaker 1: Levin's TV show on Fox Life Liberty, Liberty and Levin
Speaker 1: about what's happening and what's next for Israel. Take a listen.
Speaker 1: This is his own words with Mark Levin to try.
Speaker 3: And prevent Iran from getting a nuclear weapon.
Speaker 2: To your knowledge, I'm.
Speaker 4: Not going to say everything in my knowledge, but I
Speaker 4: can't say this Mark that the jury is still out.
Speaker 4: I mean, if we see what the Iranian access is
Speaker 4: doing without nuclear weapons, the horrors is perpetrated on that
Speaker 4: October seventh, the wanton terrorism that is practicing not only
Speaker 4: in the Middle East, but in every content in around
Speaker 4: the world, including in North America and in South America.
Speaker 4: The terrible aggression that is perpetrating in every zone in
Speaker 4: the world and especially in our region. That's what it's
Speaker 4: doing without nuclear weapons. Now, imagine what would happen if
Speaker 4: Iran had nuclear weapons and all its minions, all its
Speaker 4: proxies would know that they have a nuclear umbrella. It
Speaker 4: would be a different world and the entire world would
Speaker 4: be endangered. And of course, if Iran had nuclear weapons,
Speaker 4: they'd be able to use not only terrorist proxies, they'd
Speaker 4: be able to wield on you the threat of the
Speaker 4: greatest terror of them all, nuclear terrorism. They'd have ballistic
Speaker 4: missiles that could reach any city in the United States,
Speaker 4: and they'll hold you hostage. And therefore, the battle now
Speaker 4: that we're waging is a battle against Iran's Axis of terror,
Speaker 4: and everybody wants to see who's going to win. If
Speaker 4: Israel wins, we all win. And if Israel doesn't win,
Speaker 4: then the axis emerges victorious, and that in perils our
Speaker 4: entire future. So this is not just Israel's war, it's
Speaker 4: your war. And we have to win this war. Just
Speaker 4: as we had to win the battle against the Nazis,
Speaker 4: we had to win the battle against Isis. We had
Speaker 4: to win the battle against al Qaeda. Everybody unitedly understood
Speaker 4: we cannot let this be obfuscated by Hamas propaganda and
Speaker 4: media obfuscation. We have to keep our moral clarity and
Speaker 4: our strategic clarity. We have to understand that we're fighting
Speaker 4: for our future. By the way, the future of the
Speaker 4: Palestinians as well as israelis the future of the Middle East,
Speaker 4: the future of the Moderate Arab States, the future of
Speaker 4: the expansion of the historic abram accords a future of
Speaker 4: peace with Saudi Arabia that can all be achieved, but
Speaker 4: it has one necessary prerequisite victory, total victory over Hamas.
Speaker 4: We destroy Camas, we assure the peace. We destroy Caamas,
Speaker 4: we assure security, we destroy Kamas, we assure a better
Speaker 4: future for all.
Speaker 5: And honestly, this is what statesmen and real leaders, specially.
Speaker 1: By the way, to be clear with Netahu's saying there,
Speaker 1: he's saying, look, you think it's just Tomas, You're wrong.
Speaker 1: Problems all over the world. We have to win this
Speaker 1: battle against al KaiA. We had to win a battle
Speaker 1: against the Nazis, we had to win a battle against Isis.
Speaker 1: Now we have to win a battle against Hamas. And
Speaker 1: the idea that we should stop based on what we've
Speaker 1: now seen of what Hamas has done is insane. Yet
Speaker 1: the media, the left, the socialists are saying we have
Speaker 1: to stop.
Speaker 2: It's insane.
Speaker 1: I want to tell you about a company that I
Speaker 1: really want you to check out. For ten years, Patriot
Speaker 1: Mobile has been America's only Christian conservative wireless provider.
Speaker 2: And when I say the only one, I mean it.
Speaker 2: They're the only one.
Speaker 1: They make a huge difference every time that you pay
Speaker 1: your bill, because they actually get back to conservative causes
Speaker 1: and organizations to help you stand up for what you
Speaker 1: believe in. While you're paying a bill you're going to
Speaker 1: have anyways. This is the part that I love about
Speaker 1: Patriot Mobile. They're making a difference every time you pay
Speaker 1: your bill, every time you make a phone call, every
Speaker 1: time that you send a text message, Patriot Mobile actually
Speaker 1: gives money back to protect First and Second Amendment rights,
Speaker 1: to protect the lives of unborn children. And that's what
Speaker 1: they're doing right now is they celebrate their tenth anniversary.
Speaker 1: If you switch right now to Patriot Mobile, they are
Speaker 1: going to give a donation to help protect life and
Speaker 1: to help mothers choose life to an organization that does
Speaker 1: everything they can to protect the lives of unborn children.
Speaker 1: Then every month when you pay your bill, they're going
Speaker 1: to continue to support the causes that I just mentioned.
Speaker 1: And this is exactly why you need to make the switch.
Speaker 1: If you're tired of woke companies, switch your cell phone
Speaker 1: to Patriot Mobile. Whether you are a business, a small business,
Speaker 1: or just a family, you can switch, and they make
Speaker 1: switching easy. They have a one hundred percent US based
Speaker 1: call center making switching extremely easy. You're going to get
Speaker 1: nationwide coverage, UNS mid talking text and usually save real
Speaker 1: money on your bill. Nine seven to two Patriot, it's
Speaker 1: nine seven to two Patriot, nine seven to two Patriot.
Speaker 1: Or go online to Patriot Mobile dot com slash ben
Speaker 1: that's Patriot Mobile dot com slash ben or nine seven
Speaker 1: to two Patriot. So what is the media saying about
Speaker 1: this idea that we have to get rid of Hamas
Speaker 1: and are they backing the idea that we should treat
Speaker 1: them like any other terrorists organization? Take a listen in
Speaker 1: to Morning Joe MSNBC. Oh no, no, no, no no.
Speaker 1: They're gonna condemn BB. Why because net Yahu?
Speaker 2: They hate? Why because he's going after a terrorists organization? Listen,
Speaker 2: So let me just jump in. Rarely do I disagree
Speaker 2: with Richard, but I do on this.
Speaker 5: I think when the war ends, BB's gone. In a
Speaker 5: week in Israel, I couldn't find people on the right
Speaker 5: on the left who were willing to speak up for him.
Speaker 5: There's a sense that his polarizing politics in the year
Speaker 5: before this war broke out trying to keep his unwieldy
Speaker 5: coalition together by making the demands on behalf of his
Speaker 5: right wing supporters weakened the nation. One former Prime minister
Speaker 5: enough Tally Bennett, not speaking about BB by name, generally
Speaker 5: said BB's tactics left Israel so weak that its enemies
Speaker 5: finally saw that it was vulnerable, and then they attacked.
Speaker 2: I think that feeling is widespread in Israel.
Speaker 5: I think there's a desire for new leadership to talk
Speaker 5: about who else. The polls are very clear that BB
Speaker 5: lags far behind Benny Gantz, his coalition partner. So I
Speaker 5: do think a change is coming, and I think a
Speaker 5: lot of Israelis do hold him responsible for the country
Speaker 5: coming into war. So I'm prepared.
Speaker 1: By the way, I love this type of propaganda from
Speaker 1: NBC News Bbe's approval rating right now, since the war
Speaker 1: start is not where he says it is, they could
Speaker 1: immediately fact check him. The idea that you can't find
Speaker 1: anybody in Israel that supports Bbe as he's taking on
Speaker 1: the terrace that instantly killed him as absurd, right, I mean,
Speaker 1: this is just a joke. But this is the anti
Speaker 1: Semitic propaganda that is out there, right, I mean, this
Speaker 1: is it. This is the anti Semitic propaganda that's out there.
Speaker 4: Now.
Speaker 1: This also goes back to this other shock poll that
Speaker 1: deals with Joe Biden. There's this pole that came out
Speaker 1: that Joe Biden is now underwater in a very big way.
Speaker 1: Why is he underwater because there's so many anti Semitic
Speaker 1: pro Hamas young people in this country that are now
Speaker 1: abandoning him. And the reason why they're abandoning him is
Speaker 1: because they don't like the fact that they're taking on
Speaker 1: a terrorist organization, israel Is, and they can't stand it.
Speaker 1: They can't stand that the president of the United States
Speaker 1: of America would back a country, for example, Israel, that
Speaker 1: is going after terrorists because they believe that the terrorists
Speaker 1: are somehow.
Speaker 2: Justified and what they're doing.
Speaker 1: Here these new poll numbers that have come out, and
Speaker 1: I'm going to let you hear this from NBC as
Speaker 1: they released this poll. This poll number is that they're
Speaker 1: talking about right now is saying that President Trump beats
Speaker 1: Biden within the margin of air in the latest poll.
Speaker 1: And the reason why that's happening is because among young voters,
Speaker 1: seventy percent of those eighteen to thirty four disapproved President
Speaker 1: Biden's handling of the Israel Hamas war.
Speaker 2: Now, why is that.
Speaker 1: It is because of so much of the online propaganda
Speaker 1: defending terrorists. There is an incredible amount of online propaganda
Speaker 1: that is supporting Palestinians, supporting Hamas and attacking Israel. And
Speaker 1: so when you see this and you infiltrate, and we've
Speaker 1: seen a massive amount of this propaganda has been put
Speaker 1: out specifically in one place on TikTok and guests who
Speaker 1: owns TikTok China and just China love to undermine Israel? Yes,
Speaker 1: it's China love to undermine the United States of America, yes,
Speaker 1: and our foreign policy yes.
Speaker 2: And so what they have done is they have flooded
Speaker 2: I mean.
Speaker 1: They have absolutely flooded in a massive way anti Israel
Speaker 1: propaganda on TikTok. And so now you're seeing these woke
Speaker 1: liberals on college campuses that are turning on the party
Speaker 1: that created these socialists, and they are socialists. They have
Speaker 1: turned on the party and they're going after the Democratic Party.
Speaker 1: There was a riot at the Democratic National Committee, a
Speaker 1: full on attack on the Democrat National Committee that past
Speaker 1: week in Washington, D C. By these pro Hamas, pro
Speaker 1: Palace and in Terris sympathizers in Washington, D C. And
Speaker 1: Yet it's funny because the Democratic Party created this. They
Speaker 1: created these communists, they created these socialists, and now we're
Speaker 1: witnessing what happens when you don't placate the radicals. And
Speaker 1: who are they being controlled by. There's no doubt they're
Speaker 1: being controlled by China. China is the one that is
Speaker 1: putting the algorithm out there. China is the one that
Speaker 1: has decided, okay to put an incredible amount of anti Israel,
Speaker 1: anti American news and the feeds of young people.
Speaker 2: And who is it that's choosing ticks? I guess said,
Speaker 2: older Americans. It's young. It's eighteen thirty four.
Speaker 1: And now we see these shock numbers that have come
Speaker 1: out that now the approval rating of the President of
Speaker 1: United States of America has plummeted. Seventy percent of young
Speaker 1: people eighteen to thirty four disapprove of Joe Biden's handling
Speaker 1: of the war with Hamas and Israel. Listen to this
Speaker 1: from NBC News.
Speaker 2: Overall, this is the handling of the Israel Hamas war.
Speaker 3: And again it kind of measures overall up with Biden's
Speaker 3: a foreign policy approval.
Speaker 2: But look at this among the oldest group of voters.
Speaker 3: Sixty five plus there's a majority who approve how Biden
Speaker 3: is handling this.
Speaker 2: That's plus twelve.
Speaker 3: Look at the youngest group of voters, twenty approved, seventy
Speaker 3: percent disapproved. He is fifty points underwater with the youngest
Speaker 3: group of voters. That is a sixty two point net
Speaker 3: swing between youngest and oldest on this topic of you
Speaker 3: is Israel Hamas.
Speaker 5: And it's a critical group of voters that he needs
Speaker 5: in order to win reelection.
Speaker 4: That's for sure.
Speaker 2: Seventy percent.
Speaker 1: Only twenty percent approved of the handling of the Israel
Speaker 1: Hamas war by the President United States of America, Joe Biden,
Speaker 1: because he's supporting the good guys over the terrorists, the terrorists.
Speaker 2: Who again cooked babies and ovens.
Speaker 1: A lot of people heard that story, and the media
Speaker 1: did every everything could have tried to disprove it.
Speaker 2: They couldn't.
Speaker 1: They wanted it to be quote propaganda, they wanted it
Speaker 1: to not be true. It was true, and there was
Speaker 1: something else that happened in that story. As the media
Speaker 1: was digging at a psychotic obsession, was digging, I mean
Speaker 1: just totally psychotically digging to try to disprove that a
Speaker 1: Jewish child, an infant child was cooked to death in
Speaker 1: an oven. We found out more about that incident. What
Speaker 1: we found out was is the mother of that child
Speaker 1: was raped during the cooking of her child by Hamas.
Speaker 1: That's who the Democratic Party is defending. The mother was
Speaker 1: being brutally raped, brutally raped while her child was being
Speaker 1: cooked to death alive in an oven.
Speaker 2: That's amas. So when you hear net Nyahu come out and.
Speaker 1: Say we have to finish off of mass the same
Speaker 1: way we've went after the Nazis, the same way that
Speaker 1: we went after al Kaeda, the same way we went
Speaker 1: after Isis, He's right, And then you hear NBC News saying, oh,
Speaker 1: he won't survive this.
Speaker 2: Afterwards he's gone.
Speaker 1: I can't find anybody NBC who's saying I can't find
Speaker 1: anyone in Israel that supports the man.
Speaker 2: That's a lie.
Speaker 1: There is more support for BB right now than there's
Speaker 1: probably been the last ten years in Israel, right I mean,
Speaker 1: I mean, that's the truth. But they don't want you
Speaker 1: to know that. They want you to believe that Bib
Speaker 1: is the bad guy. They want you to believe that
Speaker 1: Netanyahu is the bad guy. That's their objective here, that
Speaker 1: is their goal here. One other point I want to
Speaker 1: make is this, make sure also that you go look
Speaker 1: at these videos from the Israeli Defense Forces.
Speaker 2: I have put them out on social media. They're up there.
Speaker 1: You can see this extensive tunnel system. It is truly
Speaker 1: incredible to see what they have. I have found and
Speaker 1: tell me that these people aren't just pure evil.
Speaker 2: Look at them, Look at them.
Speaker 1: And see what they built to terrorize innocent people and
Speaker 1: kill people in Israel. Tell me that the Palestinian people
Speaker 1: didn't know this was going on below their homes and
Speaker 1: below their hospitals. They knew there was one thing that
Speaker 1: was mentioned in that audio attacking Bebe. They said that
Speaker 1: how was he not ready for this attack, and somehow
Speaker 1: this is his fault that this attack took place.
Speaker 2: I don't buy into that propaganda.
Speaker 1: I believe it's nothing but propaganda, but it does bring
Speaker 1: up an important point about being prepared and being ready.
Speaker 1: This is happening in this country, in the United States
Speaker 1: of America. We should learn from what's happened in Israel.
Speaker 1: The army is now scrambling in this country in America
Speaker 1: to get back soldiers that this country kicked out of
Speaker 1: our armed services over Biden's military vaccine mandate. The now now,
Speaker 1: I should say now, the Army is appearing to try
Speaker 1: to bring back into service soldiers that it kicked out
Speaker 1: over the Biden administration's policy to remove service members who
Speaker 1: rejected the coronavirus vaccine mandate. According to a letter from
Speaker 1: the Army and several former soldiers posted online over the weekend,
Speaker 1: the letter, addressed to former service members, states that there
Speaker 1: is a new Army guidance that would correct military records
Speaker 1: of those kicked out, which would enable those who were
Speaker 1: removed and had their doubd DASH two one four s
Speaker 1: is marked with a certain code barring them from re
Speaker 1: entering service, and it would now allow them to return
Speaker 1: to service. The letter instructed former soldiers on how they
Speaker 1: could get their records corrected, and then added quote Individuals
Speaker 1: who desired to apply to return to service should contact
Speaker 1: their local Army, US Army Reserve, or Army National Guard
Speaker 1: recruiter for more information. The individuals may locate an Army
Speaker 1: recruiter by visiting and it gives a three different web
Speaker 1: addresses to go to. Sam Shue Made, a retired Army
Speaker 1: Chief Warrant Officer two who fought the mandate and one
Speaker 1: of the administrations. On military watchdog websites, Terminal WCO posted
Speaker 1: a copy of the letter on AX. Clearly the letter's
Speaker 1: real the Department of Army, Office of the Deputy Chief
Speaker 1: of Staff, G one three hundred Army Pentagon, Washington, DC,
Speaker 1: and it says this, Dear former service members, we write
Speaker 1: to notify you have a new Army guidance regarding the
Speaker 1: correction of military records for former members of the Army
Speaker 1: following recession of the COVID nineteen vaccine requirement. As a
Speaker 1: result of the recession of all current COVID nineteen vaccine requirements,
Speaker 1: former soldiers who involuntarily separated for refusal to receive the
Speaker 1: COVID nineteen vaccine may request a correction to their military
Speaker 1: records from either or both of the Army Discharge Review
Speaker 1: Boards or the Army Board for Correction of Military Records.
Speaker 1: Individuals may request a correction to military personnel records, including
Speaker 1: records regarding the characterization of the discharge, by submitting a
Speaker 1: request to the ABRB or the ABCMR, and you can
Speaker 1: do it online or by mailing a DD form to
Speaker 1: the Review of Discharge or Dismissials from the Armed servant
Speaker 1: Forces of the United States. Individuals who desire to apply
Speaker 1: to return to service should contact their local Army, US
Speaker 1: Army reservists or National Guard recruiter for more information. The
Speaker 1: Biden administration just so you know, and this has put
Speaker 1: our military and a vulnerable spot because we've not been
Speaker 1: reaching our goals, our mandated goals for recruitment. The Biden administration,
Speaker 1: coming in like tyrants and dictators, socialists and communists, imposed
Speaker 1: a vaccine mandate on the military and August twenty twenty one,
Speaker 1: and then Defense Secretary of Lord Austin then issued a
Speaker 1: policy that said any service member who did not follow
Speaker 1: the mandate by December of twenty twenty would be kicked
Speaker 1: out of the military. As a result, more than eight
Speaker 1: thousand troops, and many of them were experienced, older and
Speaker 1: higher ranked troops, were in fact kicked out. Tens of
Speaker 1: thousands of National Guard members were sidelined and lost drill
Speaker 1: time and pay, and a number simply decided not to
Speaker 1: re enlist because of this new law. Thousands more sought
Speaker 1: a religious, administrative, or medical exemption, and most were either
Speaker 1: denied or were waiting for a decision. When the House
Speaker 1: Republicans forced the Pentagon to rescind the mandate via the
Speaker 1: twenty twenty three National Defense Authorization Act. The mandate and
Speaker 1: decision to kick out thousands of service members came at
Speaker 1: the same time as a historic recruitment crisis was underway
Speaker 1: in the US. Brad Miller, a former soldier who was
Speaker 1: punished over the mandate and resigned from the Army, also
Speaker 1: said he received a letter and called on the Army
Speaker 1: to compensate soldiers who were punished and kicked out or
Speaker 1: otherwise resigned due to the mandate aimen to him, He
Speaker 1: said this, many have seen this letter.
Speaker 2: I just got mine. When I resigned for the Army.
Speaker 1: It was clear the god was breaking the law and
Speaker 1: senior leaders were likely engaged in treason. Why doesn't the
Speaker 1: Army ask me if I want my resignation converted into
Speaker 1: a retirement dated with the release date of this new policy,
Speaker 1: and along with it offered compensation for the command I
Speaker 1: was wrongfully relieved of compensation for the remainder of whatever
Speaker 1: my career might have been, and then offer me my
Speaker 1: adjusted pension from this month forward. Question mark, then offer
Speaker 1: the same to all the others similarly that were wronged.
Speaker 2: Dood can't fix itself.
Speaker 1: It's run by officers who the loyalty is in question,
Speaker 1: and there in turn led by the cabinet and the
Speaker 1: minister level officials who loyalty is assuredly an American, Brad
Speaker 1: Miller wrote in his post on social media. Now, the
Speaker 1: letter comes after the Army quietly issued a memo formally
Speaker 1: rescinding its vaccine mandate, a year after House Republicans forced
Speaker 1: the Biden administration resent its policy. The memo formally halted
Speaker 1: further discharges.
Speaker 2: Sought to.
Speaker 1: Sought to remove from soldiers' records punitive actions due to
Speaker 1: the mandate, and banned further punitive actions, and said service
Speaker 1: members could get their general discharges upgraded to honorable charges
Speaker 1: and even pursue re entering service.
Speaker 2: Well, do they deserve back pay? Hell yes.
Speaker 1: Recently retired Army Major Chase Spears suggested in a peace
Speaker 1: on American mind that the recent measures were tied to
Speaker 1: the armies of busmal recruiting numbers.
Speaker 2: This is what he wrote.
Speaker 1: One might be curious why the Army is doing it
Speaker 1: about face on this now, given that its top officials
Speaker 1: clearly have a different perspective from the policy change. She's authorizing.
Speaker 1: Last month, the Army missed its fiscal year twenty twenty
Speaker 1: two recruiting goals by ten thousand. That is the third
Speaker 1: consecutive year to have a significant shortfall, and the fiscal
Speaker 1: year twenty twenty one, the Army missed its recruiting goals
Speaker 1: by twenty five percent, even after lowering its initial goal
Speaker 1: for the year and reducing enlistment standards. If this trend holds,
Speaker 1: the force will have no choice but to cut units,
Speaker 1: and the heavy load already borne by those currently serving
Speaker 1: will increase Accordingly. As top military officials continue to deny
Speaker 1: the impact of dragging the Army into progressive social policy advocacy.
Speaker 2: Reality remains unmoved.
Speaker 1: Spears discussed the persecution that soldiers who did not wish
Speaker 1: to receive the vaccine face from over zealous commanders eager
Speaker 1: to implement the Biden administration's mandate. He wrote this, the
Speaker 1: Army requires several ammuisations and checkups throughout the year to
Speaker 1: maintain one's medical readiness. Not one of those came with
Speaker 1: the course of force of the COVID mandate laid on
Speaker 1: your flu shot question mark. You just got told to
Speaker 1: take one at your next convenience. Laid on a vision
Speaker 1: check question mark. The same apply, but in twenty twenty one,
Speaker 1: on Fort Levenworth, proof of the COVID shot was the
Speaker 1: only path to being able to live in existence that
Speaker 1: in any way might reflect normal. It became the primary
Speaker 1: marker of human worth on that base and at many others.
Speaker 1: Under the management of Major General Douglas Sims, some base
Speaker 1: facilities were set aside only for the vaccinated. I traveled
Speaker 1: to Fort Riley for a war fighter exercise in late
Speaker 1: twenty twenty one. First Infantry Division policy limited unvaccinated visitors
Speaker 1: to hotel rooms and workplaces. It also restricted access to
Speaker 1: base morale facilities and the commissionary the base grocery store.
Speaker 1: You had to be vaccinated to get food to those
Speaker 1: who had a vaccine card. Friends of mine on Fort
Speaker 1: Bragg now Fort Liberty told me of similar policies at
Speaker 1: their location. A two class system among military service members
Speaker 1: was established across much of the force, heartbreaking and back
Speaker 1: to Biblical language, where you were clean or unclean based
Speaker 1: on your shot status. Major General Simms performance, however, was rewarded.
Speaker 1: The soldier goes on to write he has since been
Speaker 1: promoted to a lieutenant general and is currently the director
Speaker 1: of Operations for the Joint Staff. Would he treat an
Speaker 1: unvaccinated officer who re enters the army with respect in
Speaker 1: the days to come, or would such an uninformed citizens
Speaker 1: still be worthy of segregation question Mark Spears discussed how
Speaker 1: other army leaders punish on vaccinated soldiers.
Speaker 2: Harshly and were rewarded for it as well.
Speaker 1: He called on senior army officials to apologize for that conduct, saying,
Speaker 1: though this policy reversals a step towards sanity, it is
Speaker 1: far from enough. As I have said before, senior Army
Speaker 1: officials did apologize for their COVID related misconduct. Beyond that,
Speaker 1: they owe a deep reservoir of amends to subordinate So
Speaker 1: subordinates whose trust was so clearly broken. We must never
Speaker 1: allow totalitarians to persecute their fellow citizens in our nation's military.
Speaker 2: Ever.
Speaker 1: Again, a forest that can so easily lose sight of
Speaker 1: its purpose is one that is rightly viewed through a
Speaker 1: skeptics lens.
Speaker 2: I think they're absolutely right in what they're saying.
Speaker 1: Look, this is a step in the right direction, yes,
Speaker 1: but is it enough to right the wrongs?
Speaker 5: No?
Speaker 2: And this is what happens when you put.
Speaker 1: Politics ahead of military readiness, this bs of political pandering,
Speaker 1: put ahead of what should actually happen in our military
Speaker 1: and what should matter.
Speaker 2: And now we have a problem. What is the problem.
Speaker 1: The problem is now we have a military that is
Speaker 1: understaffed because of wokeness.
Speaker 2: Never forget that.
Speaker 1: Make sure you share this podcast with your family and
Speaker 1: your friends, and make sure you write us a five
Speaker 1: star review so we can reach more people. And I'll
Speaker 1: see you back here tomorrow.
