Chapter 1: What are the implications of ending the Forever Wars?
How many fish? It didn't get super, it didn't show the flume. I missed it. You missed it? I missed it. I don't have it. It did it past it. Past it. I couldn't track it. Sorry, I'm fine.
Just stay around. Go ahead. Go ahead.
Don't say that for me. Go back now. Oh, that's nice. Oh, I was in. Oh, my God. Yeah, yeah. How does he leave me out of my own fault? All right. God bless the United States of America. USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! Well, that was good timing, wasn't it? We had to get that right. We had to get that right.
Hamas has accepted President Trump's hostage release framework with negotiations continuing in Cairo today. Both sides agree Hamas will not govern Gaza under Trump's 20-point peace plan backed by Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu. Trump posted on social media yesterday that talks have been successful. quote, very successful, but warned that delays could bring massive bloodshed.
Despite ongoing negotiations, Israeli airstrikes killed 65 people in Gaza over the weekend, according to the Hamas-run health ministry. Axios has new reporting on President Trump's phone call on Friday with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. It came after Hamas initially agreed to release all the hostages. Axios reporting that Trump called Netanyahu to discuss what he saw as good news.
But according to a U.S. official, Netanyahu felt differently, telling Trump this is nothing to celebrate and that it doesn't mean anything. Trump then reportedly fired back. I don't know why you're always so effing negative. This is a win. Take it.
I think the stars are aligning, not for peace, but as you said, Jo, correctly, for a breakthrough. I think there's a pretty good chance now, which is not something we would have said any time over the last two years, for a deal, hostage for prisoners, a ceasefire, Israelis pulled back to some still to be determined line. I think there's probably some more aid going in.
I think there's a pretty good chance we get that. The rest of the deal, will you eliminate Hamas? No. Will you get every Hamas fighter to go over, give up his weapons? No, no way to do that. No way to mount that. Will you get serious peace talks underway? No. But could you get a kind of mini deal? I think there's a pretty good chance.
And then I think the next big thing will probably be Israeli elections sometime in the first three, four months of next year. And Bibi Netanyahu, who was really forced by Donald Trump to accept this deal, will basically try to make it his own and basically say, first I won the war, then I got this breakthrough and I got the hostages.

Chapter 2: How is President Trump's negotiating stance affecting Middle Eastern dynamics?
This is the primal scream of a dying regime. Pray for our enemies, because we're going medieval on these people. I got a free shot. All these networks lying about the people, the people have had a belly full of it. I know you don't like hearing that. I know you try to do everything in the world to stop that, but you're not going to stop it. It's going to happen.
And where do people like that go to share the big line? Mega media. I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.
Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose? If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved.
War Room. Here's your host, Stephen K. Bann.

Gold is up around 40% this year. That's not speculation. That is reality. And if a portion of your savings isn't diversified into gold, you're missing the boat. Here's the facts. Inflation is still too high. The U.S. dollar is still too weak. The government debt is insurmountable. This is why central banks are flocking to gold. They're the ones driving prices up to record highs.

Chapter 3: What recent developments have occurred in Israeli-Palestinian negotiations?
Turns out when you're on a carrier at sea, when I was in the service, I never had my cell phone, so it just never was something that I you know, that I would think about. But yeah, it was no service out there. And so we've got the video now. We're playing it. I got all the sound you want, including, I believe, the president. There's the tomahawks going off.
So I believe the president actually tweeted out one of my videos or truthed out one of my videos. That's with The F-18 conducting a supersonic flight. He's breaking the sound barrier right in front of President Trump and Melania. And this thing's going viral right now because you see the president. And I'm as you can see, I'm standing on the flight deck just across from him.
He didn't even flinch. He didn't even splinch at all. And it's interesting because you saw the entire left spent the whole weekend saying, where's Trump? Where's Trump? He hadn't done anything in front of the cameras. And it's been a couple of days and he's out here with, you know, breaking the sound barrier, not even skipping a beat.
And by the way, I have to say, just having been there and wait, wait and spending the whole day as well with the. But the first lady and observing that, I got to tell you, I think the first lady really enjoyed this. She was mentioning that she had been to the Bush before. What are you talking about? She loved it. In the first term. She loved it.
And you could tell that was genuine enjoyment, genuine interest. And they're asking, by the way, probing questions, serious questions. If you remember, by the way, President Trump. has had issues before, specifically with the catapults on the decks of these carriers. This is the bush, right? No, remember, remember he was going between the steam and the electric.
Yeah, it was the steam versus the electric.
Yeah.
Hang on, the narrator made sure that he said steam catapult. I mean, that was in the script, right? President Trump on the electronic catapult.
Go ahead. Yeah, I had no narrator. My narrator was boom, boom, boom of the United States Navy. That was my narrator. Well, and it was interesting, too, because I was the only one who it was a prior Navy. It was there. So all a lot of the media guys were around, you know, and, you know, they're saying, what ship is that? What ship? What's what's that jet? That's not a jet. That's a plane.

Chapter 4: How does Netanyahu's approach impact U.S.-Israel relations?
And look, you know, it speaks to the professionalism of the United States Navy sailor that they were willing to have him out there. And again, by the way, could you imagine? I mean, it you have to say that the compare and contrast. Imagine Joe Biden staying up there with the rotor wash. with the F-35 landing just a couple of feet in front of him, with an F-18 breaking the sound barrier.
I mean, he would have fallen off. He would have fallen off, and everybody can look at this back and forth. I mean, he would have been down to Davy Jones.
Down to Davy Jones. What about Obama would have been saying corpsmen? Remember that? Corpsmen. Yeah, the corpsmen. Corpsmen. Couldn't tell poor from starboard. What was amazing is the president was out there for the entire flight ops. It was incredible. And you tell him he was loving it. Here's the thing, Jack.
I have been commenting the last couple of times as President Trump does these huge evolutions every day that he does look like he's getting tired. I mean, you can tell he's trying to change the world. Everything's coming to the Oval Office. Everything's coming to his desk on his shoulders. Yesterday rejuvenated him. When he got off that and came to that speech, I mean, he dropped 10 years in age.
All these people saying, we haven't seen Trump in 48 hours. He's getting old. This guy's only just starting. He just needed to be out with the sailors, out of the fleet. And I think it's so powerful. He didn't want to be removed from action at all. He wanted to be actually there on the flight deck, you know, watching the ships, you know, the 5-inch 54, see the rockets go off, be right there.
when the Navy SEALs came for the boarding exercise. So he could see all of it. And Milani, you could tell they were having a great time. And he was so rejuvenated by it, right? It was like his batteries were getting charged at the same time. So it was just a magnificent evolution. I can't say enough about how the Navy... Go ahead.
Well, and you have to contrast it. So the last time he's really done a major public address like this was at Charlie's Memorial. And obviously I was there as well. And so to go from something like that, which was so horrific and people ask me to say, oh, what was it like to be there? It was horrible. The whole day was horrible. Every single second of it was horrible.
But then to go to something like this, and I have to say, from a personal perspective, having served in the United States Navy, to be back there at Naval Station Norfolk, where I've been many, many times, I was stationed at DAMNEC for a while in Intel, and...
to be there with the fleet with my shipmates to see the president up there saying you members of the united states navy have held the watch for two and a half centuries and you will hold that watch forever it just it meant a lot to me personally and i think it meant a lot to the country i certainly hope it did to see the president acting and assuming that role right really speaking with the voice of the commander in chief showing the awesome and terrible power

It didn't get super. It didn't show the flume. I missed it. You missed it? I missed it. I don't have it. It did it past us. I couldn't track it.
So, Jack, correct me if I'm wrong. The president was so enthusiastic about DAC because you've got it coming in. That's a deck top. That's coming across the deck. The reverberations and the noise is overwhelming. Did the president himself put that up on Truth Social?
He liked it so much he actually posted it twice on his Truth Social, right after one after another. And Steve, what people need to understand, when you're that close to the sonic boom, to the sound, it's not just breaking the sound barrier, it's not just loud, all right? you feel it, and it's like getting punched in the chest.
That thing smashing through the vapor cloud that comes up, it is absolutely dominating. And yet, the president, he looked like he was having a conversation. It comes up, it's so fast, it doesn't even turn his head. It just doesn't even flinch. About his business, he registers it, takes a look, okay, goes right back to what he was saying.
Every VIP... that will come to a combatant like that, and particularly a flagship and an aircraft carrier, when they're going to do not just gunfire support and the types of surface stuff, surface evolutions you have, but to do flight ops, you go to the bridge. They're up on the bridge with the binocs and the top gun jacket and the ball cap. He's on the deck. I've never seen anything like it.
He got an appreciation yesterday for the raw power of naval air and the weapons because he's down there seeing it like an enlisted man scene. I think this is why he's so beloved by the troops and the sailors. You can't coach that. You can't teach that. That's a natural. That's what he wanted to do. He wanted to be there. That is kind of an enlisted man's view of the world, right?

Chapter 6: How are U.S. military strategies evolving under current leadership?
It's it's never been seen before. We've never seen a president that's been able to just stand there and physically even withstand all of this to be able to do that for easily an hour and a half. feeling the vertebrations of the sonic boom, being that close, watching the Navy SEALs conduct a VBSS assault of another destroyer. Usually we don't do those on our own ships, but from time to time.
And to spend the entire day right there on the deck plates. And it's footage that was an honor to participate, and I have to really thank... Real America's Voice and Rob and Parker for all they did to support this, to make sure that we got this footage that nobody else has, that nobody else has this.
You know, the president United States watching the Tomahawks launch, watching them extend all the way out to the horizon line. And they had a couple of dinghies, by the way, set up when they did the they did a sea whiz demonstration, as well as the cannons, the old Mike Mike's.
And and so and those dinghies, those dinghies are at the bottom of the of the Chesapeake Bay right now, or at least off the off the off the seaboard. And when you look at everything that he's done to be able to do so at, I mean, you look at his age on paper and you say, how is this even possible? And yet he does it all day.
And Steve, what I would say, even separate from this, as incredible as this power was, It was the footage that is even equally as incredible is when he was going and meeting with the individual sailors where when they would come out to the hangar bay, shook every single hand. They're all taking selfies with him. They're all meeting him. They crowded him.
I almost want to say they mobbed him because they couldn't get enough of him. shaking hands and they're handing out coins and the first lady as well, not just, and then, and so when you saw that at the hangar bay, then we saw the reception as well at the, at the pier and it was no surprise at all.
Hang on, hang on. This is so important. This is what he got rejuvenated. He had two battery char hits. It wasn't just the power and the might of the Navy. I keep telling you, folks, you know, he's watched Victory at Sea 10 times. He's very familiar with naval warfare history. In fact, he's as close to the Navy as of interest and love as FDR or Teddy Roosevelt, who were obviously...
under secretaries of the Navy and very involved in the Navy and sailors and ships and all that. President Trump, the other part is what Jack just said, and Jack's got footage of it, going inside the hangar bay And remember, he didn't go to the ward room, I don't think. He didn't go up to the captain's sea cabin. He didn't go up and have a cup of coffee up there. No VIP.
He's down there with the troops. This is the energy he draws. This is what Fennell said. You can't order sailors to clap. They love this guy. They're drawn to him as an alpha male, as a leader, and a guy that they know as commander-in-chief is setting things right.

Chapter 7: What are the historical contexts influencing today's military actions?
Sometimes it gets abused, so you hear these announcements all the time. I said, no, but the whole crew has got to see him. We'll do it. Other than that, get it done. Use your other methods to get it done because I think that the 1MC should be used very rarely. But the president comes up, of course the commander in chief, and he's got it just like ā
just like he's a junior officer on, you know, in the quarterdeck, midships, doing it, he gets right on it, he's addressing, but by the way, but it's no, no, but here's the thing, there's no Zoom, he's not getting some, he's not going in some, the wardroom and getting teleconferenced out to the, I'm sure they got the Zoom all over the ships now. This is original gangster. This is old school.
This is the way the Navy was, and this is why guys love him. This is why men and women see him coming up there. This is why we wanted 24, right? And I keep telling people, hey, you better appreciate it now. He ain't had someone like this since Lincoln and Washington. I'm telling you, he's at that level. And to know he can make those tough decisions.
Look, he's also negotiating peace in the Middle East, Jack, when this entire thing is going on. And the harder negotiations with our quote-unquote ally than it even was with the bad guys. The bad guys, as bad as they are, they're money sources. Yeah, go ahead.
Well, no, he threw out an aside. I don't think it was in the prepared remarks. He said, we're we're ending a lot of wars. And, you know, I know you guys want to go and fight the wars, but we're going to end some with diplomacy. He goes, you know, one of these conflicts has been going on for about 3000 years, but we're going to end it.
Jack, hang on for a second. We're going to get into that. And by the way, folks should remember those fast attack submarines that were out there yesterday are the exact type class of submarine that launched the Tomahawk missiles that took down, I don't know, 50% of the Iranian nuclear weapons program.
Those were good old United States Navy, North Arabian Sea, on patrol there with carrier battle groups out in the North Arabian Sea that lit up So all the great bombers in the Air Force, it's magnificent. Love the Air Force for the magnificence of that. Coming out of Omaha with the stealth bombers and, you know, taking that.
You had to go back to the Navy, to 1970s technology, which is really the tomahawk, with the fast attack submarines. Just pull it up in the North Arabian Sea, surface, and let it launch, right? And you saw a little bit of that yesterday, which I'm so glad the submariners... We're part of this. Not just the boomers, but the fast attacks are such an important part of the entire thing.
Okay, we've got a lot more to get to. Jack Posobiec is going to stick with us. We're going to take a short commercial break. Birch Gold, I've been telling you folks, FT's got a huge arc on the fear of missing out. A lot of people are piling into gold. Put all that aside. Understand the mechanics and the converging forces in the world.

Chapter 8: How does public perception shape foreign policy decisions?
You can imagine how well that sat behind the Resolute Desk. So there's been a change here where Trump and his team have really feel like they've been able to put the screws a little bit to Netanyahu. They forced the apology in Doha, and now they feel like they're close to getting Netanyahu to take this deal.
I'm struck by the language we heard from the weekend of Trump telling Netanyahu to take the win. That's the exact phrase that President Biden gave Netanyahu more than a year ago, October 2024. Right around this time, Netanyahu defied Biden then. Richard, he seems like he's not able to now.
This is so important. He's giving them orders like you would give a protectorate. You ever heard that phrase before, protectorate? That's what Israel is. They don't call the shots. The United States calls the shots. And for all the Tel Aviv live in and all the Israel first crowd, is this deal perfect? No, it is not perfect. Are Hamas very bad guys? Yes, incredibly bad guys.
Is Qatar the financier of the Muslim Brotherhood? According to Steve Bannon, it is. I'm no fan. But we kind of are where we are. And big, huge reason for that is that, what did we say at the very beginning of this? A guy named Jack Posobiec was on the show live with me on the 7th of October. It was a Saturday, Jack. Remember? I called Jack before and I said, there's something big going on.
Jumped on, did the whole show. And we said, if you've got to go through hell, you've got to go through as quickly as possible. If you're going to take out Hamas, particularly the military brigades of Hamas, you have to go and you have to get it done rapidly. You can't mess around. Why did they mess around?
The head of the IDF, not Steve Bannon, the head of the IDF, the new guy who's tough, said there was basically nothing done substantially he didn't feel until he came in in February or March. They screwed around for domestic political reasons. Domestic political reasons. Let me repeat that. Domestic political reasons. And so we are where we are. But right now, President Trump is giving orders.
And for all the Israel First crowd here in the United States, the great unmasking. President Trump's trying to do something that's impossible. To begin a process that you can really get peace. This is why he should... Nobody else should be considered to be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize this Thursday or Friday. So Jack Posobiec, we've got a couple minutes here.
I want to hold you through in the next hour. Monumental what's happening, but he's getting tons of pushback here in the United States by the Israel First crowd.
Well, Steve, here's the thing. And you saw the president, of course, over the weekend, making those true social posts, even as we were on the way to the Navy 250 celebration there, where he was talking about how this deal is the deal that he wants to push through. So you've got. The Qataris with the leverage through them on Hamas, that's where that's coming from.
