What military posturing is happening in the Middle East?
We saw some military posturing from both sides, Inez, ahead of these talks. What are the leaders saying now?
Hey, Laura. Yeah, a big day of diplomacy here in Geneva as the U.S. held talks on both Iran and Ukraine. When it comes to Iran, we know those talks went on for about three and a half hours. They did wrap. We saw the U.S. and Iranian delegations leaving a few hours ago. Things got a bit heated. There were protesters on the scene yelling at the Americans, questioning, why are you negotiating with terrorists? We know that it was the president's son-in-law, Jared Kushner, and the special envoy, Steve Witkoff, that were leading the U.S. delegation on the Iranian side.
What were the outcomes of the U.S.-Iran talks in Geneva?
It was the Iranian foreign minister. And interestingly, as these talks were underway, we did get some quite defiant language from Iran's supreme leader. So I'll just read you a couple of quotes. He said... The U.S. president keeps saying that they have the strongest military force in the world. The strongest military force in the world may at times be struck so hard that it cannot get up again. He went on to say the Americans constantly say that they've sent a warship toward Iran. So, of course, referring to the second aircraft carrier that's on its way. Of course, a warship is a dangerous piece of military hardware. However, more dangerous than that warship is the weapon that can send that warship to the bottom of the sea.
And in terms of what was actually said during the talk, so there's still a lot we don't know, but we did get comments from both the Iranian side and from the U.S. side that would seem to indicate that progress has been made. So I'll read you what a U.S. official told MSNOW. He said progress was made, but there are still a lot of details to discuss. The Iranians said they would come back in the next two weeks. with detailed proposals to address some of the open gaps in our positions. The Iranians did suggest that there could be a third round of negotiations on the way.
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 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?
How did Iran's leadership respond during the negotiations?
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. It's Tuesday, 17 February, in the year of the Lord, 2026. Welcome to the 5 o'clock edition of the War Room. Just some logistics. War Room Texas is going to immediately follow us. It's an incredible show, so make sure you stick around for that. Right after that, at 7 p.m. Eastern Standard Time, We're going to livestream the debate with the Texas AG for the Attorney General. We did the debate the other night for the Ag Commissioner, and we've got a breakdown. We're going to actually break that down. I had a big, very big audience for that on Sunday night of President's Weekend.
We are going to break down some of the answers there, particularly on illegal immigrant labor and halal food. As you know, Sharia law is on the ballot here. First day of early voting in Texas, ballot 3 March is the election day. And Prop 10 to ban Sharia law in Texas is on the ballot. Also, a little more logistics. Our own Ben Harnwell has left Rome. And Dr. Thea has left the United States. They're en route. to a defense and strategic conference. We'll be bringing them in live on Thursday and Friday. But every 6 o'clock show this week, Ben can't do a show on the road, every 6 o'clock show this week will be War Room Texas and also the second hour of Saturday shows. We're going to do it and probably do it every day and figure out how we juggle Ben's show.
First off, the show on Catholicism and Christianity on Wednesdays at 6.
