Chapter 1: What is the primal scream of a dying regime?
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 on 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've tried 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 lie? 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. Okay, well, Tuesday, 31 March, Year of Our Lord, 2026. We're through the first quarter of 2026. Wow. And we're in the middle of a war. Maybe not in the middle of it. Maybe towards the end of it.
President Trump is is working towards that. We got a lot more. We're going to get back to birthright citizenship tomorrow. The mass deportation coalition also going to have the airports are now people are flowing through. Shocking when you pay people and they show up. Of course, the ICE agents deployed have been spectacular. We're going to talk about that.
Todd Blanche from the stage at CPAC the other day saying that he 100% agrees with the war room that we can and will send ICE agents to the polls in the fall. All that we're going to get to. I want to get back to. So Ben Harmore joins me from Rome. Ben, let me do the level set here, and then I need you to jump in. This war, we've got Israel as an ally, America's greatest ally.
We have the Gulf nations, where President Trump's gone over and done these. Last spring, did this big meeting over there of all the business opportunities and Dubai's the new influencer capital of the world. Everybody's moving over there, and it's all great. You know, Islam is all great and it's fantastic and it's a religion of peace, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.
And then our NATO allies, we've been underwriting, you know, bail them out in World War I, bail them out in World War II, and I mean really bail them out both times. Bail them out in the Cold War, rebuilt Europe, and then paid for the defense for decade after decade after decade, won the Cold War with some help from them. But not enough. Some help from them. And now I've underwritten this.
And as President Trump said, hey, maybe you should pay 2% in the first term, which they committed to after the Ukraine situation. All they did was whine and bitch and moan. And so now we're in a situation where there's a shooting war. And we have 50,000 young American men and women in harm's way.
And we've put forward to the Congress a $200 billion butcher's bill for this to be paid for, I guess, by Congress. And we've argued from the beginning, hey, just like in the Gulf War in the early 90s, the Arab nations and maybe Israel passed the hat. We don't care who puts the most in, but if the number's $200 billion, we want the hat to add up to $200 billion.

Chapter 2: How does President Trump plan to address the current war situation?
If we're going to take Karg Island, we want the UAE guys, those special forces, because they've got a really good small army. But if punches way above their weight, we want to see them on the first wave. We want to see the IDF in there. We want to see the Saudi infantry in there. And it looks like we're getting the exact opposite. I think the Gulf nations put out a proclamation today.
Overnight saying they wanted the United States to continue and to finish the job here, but no commitment of their of their of their of their military. President Trump did say, hey, I think we got to look to you guys to pay for this. Israel came back yesterday and Lisa was it was I think the channel of the independent channel was a 12 channel.
which is normally pretty accurate, came back and said officials said we got our hands full in this ground war in Lebanon. We're not going to be of any help. But thanks for you know, thanks for asking. But, you know, no, no troops, no combat troops, no boots on the ground. And that's bad enough because that's the region that we're in there.
Remember, the number three purpose of this military operation is to make sure that the Iranians can't project power regionally. And that would be against Israel and, of course, against our great Arab allies.
But the one I think sticks in the crawl the most and looks like it's sticking the crawl of the president the most is the Europeans, because the straight of her moves is either it's either going to Asia or it's going to Europe. And the Red Sea down with the Houthis is also as canal is all going up.
to europe and i think we have the british uh are in the mumble tank nothing happening there france nothing happening there the italians and the spanish the spanish are going out of their way to kind of hurt us not even saying they're not going to cooperate you know you can't use spanish airspace the italians giorgio maloney the bridge between president trump
In Europe has has said we're not going to do it. And I think even Poland said, hey, look, when you talk about our patriots or dads or whatever, we're worried about the Russians. You know, we love you guys, but we don't know if we're going to be able to do it. Give me assessment. And let's start in Europe.
And you just sent me a story just as you're about to come on about it looks like some of our great allies over there are dumping U.S. treasuries, which we want in the audience. That was going to happen. And that's why maybe more than ever you've got to get the end of the dollar empire because ā
For as much as we do, and this is what for Europe, starting 100 years ago, to bail the aristocracy out, to bail these feckless nations out in World War II, to fight the Cold War, to do it all, and now to be this whole thing with Russia and the Ukraine situation. And by the way, if we give a security guarantee and do anything,

Chapter 3: What challenges are NATO allies facing in supporting the U.S.?
And I flag up India and Turkey specifically. Prime Minister Modi always very happy to go over to the White House for the photo op, but here protecting his own nation's interest. Erdogan, NATO ally, idem. Let's look at either the Spanish and Italian developments, because these are interesting. Different in their responses, but just the no is just as firm and just as unyielding.
So Spain, the socialist... Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez a month or so ago said, no, you can't use, you can't land and fly into the Middle East. You cannot use the two military bases, Rota and Moron. It's actually called Moron. You can't use either. And these are joint Spanish and American bases. And then yesterday... Out comes the escalation from that.
Now, if an escalation were indeed possible, Spain has closed its airspace to U.S. military flights heading to the Middle East. Spain's, Italy's development, our dear friend, Giorgia Foni Maloney, is, as you would expect, slightly more well-placed.
But hang on, but hang on, but hang on. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Hang on, hang on. Slow down. It's one thing to say I'm not even with the British. It was at Fairmont for the British say, hey, we need six hours because we have 51 Muslim members of commons. And, you know, we're basically controlled by the Muslims now. And so we need six hours of optics before we can let you fly.
Or it's one thing you're going to get in the Maloney and others. But to close the airspace, and particularly Rota, Spain, is a major naval facility. To actually close the airspace adds a massive logistics issue to the United States. I mean, that puts people in harm's way. We had this problem.
And I think it was with France when they closed their airspace during the attack on Gaddafi back in those days. And we had a couple of FB-111 bombers that are fighter bombers that actually, I think, went into the drink because they ran out of fuel back in, I think, 84.
But this is a big deal for a government that's supposed to be allied with us, that a government that we have supposedly a working relationship to close the airspace in the middle of a shooting war is that is telling you. We're not your ally. And, you know, we got a problem with what you're doing and we got a problem with how you're doing it.
So tell me about Spain for a second, because I think that's we've understood that it's a probably the most socialist. And you've got a bunch of people you see all the time, these Marxists up there. They get up there and say, yeah, we believe in the replacement theory. We want to take as many migrants from North Africa as possible and replace the population, particularly if you're right wing.
I mean, they're up on your grill saying if you're a right winger, we would rather have a Muslim fighting age male migrant with all the danger that brings from North Africa than have you that are part of Vox or part of some of these other parties, maybe even farther right than Vox. But for the Spanish government to say, and this is, folks, it's the great demasking, the unmasking.

Chapter 4: What is the significance of the Gulf nations in the current conflict?
So that's absolutely right, and that point needs to be made. The Spanish question is rather ā I find it difficult to ā I mean, I get where they're coming from, being Spain, but their argument is basically this is illegal to use these bases because this isn't a NATO war. There's no Article 5 here. The problem is the two bases here, they aren't NATO bases.
They are Spanish-American operated bases. So then the NATO dynamic is really a foreign excuse here. Obviously, Spain is a NATO ally, but it's not a formal NATO base. Like, for example, you have a formal NATO base in Naples in Italy. Not an operational base. It's a headquarters. The actual, again... American Italian-run base is the one in Sigonella in Sicily.
That's the one that the Italians said no to. While the plane was mid-flight, they said, no, no, you can't land here. You haven't given us the notice to say that you're coming in because we need to discuss this in Parliament.
This gets back to a debate that a lot of people didn't focus on years ago in saying that, you know, because Road to Spain, these were our bases. And with, I guess, long term leases. And then we get into the situation. We made them joint bases, had some agreement with the Spanish government.
And now in a shooting war where the United States has young men and women in harm's way and we have the nation's prestige on the line, we're trying to accomplish things. They just sit there and shut it down. I mean, this is a problem. A big problem. I don't know why we're not going back to Spain and say, hey, look, thanks for the memories.
But actually, they're our basis and we're going to do what we want to do. I mean, this is this is outrageous and particularly has such a radical government. I mean, they're they're up in your face all the time about the harder elements of that government about about a replacement theory. Ben, hang on for one second. We're going to stick here because President Trump.
is put people on notice that, hey, look, I don't know how long we're going to be here. We've got a punch list of our objectives, and once they're done, we're probably moving on. And to stop and make sure that we don't have world economic turmoil, somebody's going to have to step up here, and we don't actually have a lot of people that are saying, oh, yeah, I can do that.
In fact, they're saying the exact opposite. Birch Gold, there are... Decades in which nothing happens and weeks in which decades happen. I think this Holy Week is one of those weeks. Make sure you check out Birch Gold and Philip Patrick and the team. More of that when we return. Think about this. In 2006, $20,000 equaled roughly 33 ounces of gold at spot prices.
At today's prices, those 33 ounces of gold will be worth $165,000. Smart Americans diversify a portion of their savings into precious metals. And that's why you need to consider buying gold from my friends at Birch Gold Group. For thousands of years, gold has been a store of wealth. And today, it is a crucial part of any balance strategy.

Chapter 5: How are European countries responding to U.S. military actions?
We've always dismissed that as nonsense. And why is she not jumping in here being a full ally to the United States of America, sir?
Well, you know, whenever she does describe herself as being a bridge between the United States and the European Union, immediately it always comes to my mind, the Tacoma Narrows Bridge, folks, if you ever remember that undulating bridge that eventually is the second largest suspension bridge ever built in the world, which collapsed within a couple of weeks after opening.
And that is the bridge to nowhere, which is Georgia Maloney. So she said no. Formerly it was via the defence minister. on the basis that Italy hadn't been consulted before the flights ā we're talking more than one US bomber here ā before they took off, and therefore Italy said no, and Italy cited its treaties with the United States.
And in as far as it goes, there is ā I have no time for this government or its prime minister ā But there is a legitimate question to be asked, considering the same thing happened with regards to Spain on the same excuses, why the Department for War hadn't put in the phone calls, the US Department for War hadn't put in those necessary phone calls beforehand.
That is a legitimate question to ask. But beyond that, because it is simply a procedural excuse on Italy's part, and you can guess that it was simply a procedural excuse masking a political refusal for the time being by the fact that we know about this.
Because in the Spanish situation, the government was very gung-ho in telling all and sundry that they'd said no, that they'd blocked the airspace to the United States. With regards to the Italian situation, Steve, this actually happened by all accounts last week. It's only come out into the press now, and it first came out to the Italian press, to Corriere della Sera.
through one of their sources, presumed to be, though it's not said explicitly, on the Italian side rather than the US side. And that, Steve, I think is the indication that this leaked out to the press, is the indication that the government really wants the Italian people to know that they have said no.
And that's because there is a lot of antipathy here in Italy towards the US manoeuvres in Iran specifically. But it's still, I think, worth taking note of.
Ben, I want the answer when we get back, and we're going to bring Zira into this conversation too. The president's laid it out today. He's saying, look, we defanged these guys. We've declawed them, have essentially destroyed their operating military. They can still do scattershot. We've broken them.
