Chapter 1: What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
Hey, on today's podcast, there's a couple of things. We had Jack Carr on. He is fantastic talking about what he thinks about what's going on in Iran, what happened, what is possibly coming our way.
Chapter 2: How does Jack Carr perceive the current situation in Iran?
Really important. Also, I talked about what does a win look like? We have to define that. But in the last hour, and you should listen to the whole expanded version if you want to get the whole thing, but we have a piece of it here in the edited podcast. I spent the weekend wondering what I was going to say to you. And the last thing I wanted to do was convince you that I was right.
Because I don't know. I don't know how this ends. But I know what my principles are. And so how do you answer, is this America first?
Chapter 3: What does Glenn Beck believe a 'win' looks like in the context of military action?
Is this in our national interest? Is this just? And if we're doing this because of, you know, all of the people that are being enslaved or killed, why aren't we in Sudan? I had to answer all those questions this weekend just so I know what I believed. And I shared those thoughts with you so you can figure out what you believe all on today's podcast. Burn a launcher.
Everyone in your family needs a plan for personal safety. I've got one. your parents, your children, your spouse. Not everybody is comfortable carrying a firearm. That doesn't mean that they should be left without protection. This is tear gas in my gun, okay? 2022 FBI statistic, less than 0.01% of all altercations required a lethal response. 0.01%. Most situations do not call for a gun.
And if you're in the wrong state and you pull a gun, you're in real trouble. The Berna launcher fires non-lethal deterrents like tear gas and kinetic rounds with a range of up to 60 feet. One shot can incapacitate an attacker for 40 minutes. That gives you time to escape. Legal in all 50 states. No permits. No background checks. Compact launcher.
Chapter 4: What are the principles guiding military action discussed in the episode?
Small enough to conceal carry without drawing attention right in the small of your back or in your purse or whatever. Thousands have been sold worldwide. It is trusted by hundreds of law enforcement security professionals. I carry one myself. I have kids living on college campuses or near college campuses. They're in their backpack with their laptop. Go to Burna, B-Y-R-N-A dot com slash Glenn.

Chapter 5: Is the military action against Iran aligned with America's national interests?

So I've got what it took in the Venezuela compound, and it's really interesting when you think about what the kind of hardware that was used to harden Venezuela and Maduro versus later an upgraded version of that for Iran. I want you to take a look at this. Producer Matt, throw this up really quick. I think this goes to my point on a bigger vision. What is Trump's bigger vision?
Chapter 6: What are the implications of military engagement on domestic safety?
And that is crank China, Russia, Iran, North Korea crank. And when you understand his bigger vision of building a more peaceful, robust West and And reducing the power of crink. This strike over the weekend really makes an impact. And this is just one of the impacts shown what happened in North Korea, then how they upgraded everything in Iran and how well that worked.
I think you meant Venezuela, not North Korea. Yeah, Venezuela. Sorry, yeah. Venezuela. So in Venezuela, they had multiple... So we were just talking about this, the insiders and I were, about this is one of those areas that was considered... Bruce, I'm going to throw that back up really quick. This is one of those areas that was supposed to be so hardened that it was basically untouchable.
Now, they did this, the Venezuelans, they hardened it. It's a surgical strike. It's not a shock and awe. We're just taking out everything. It's very specific. Mm-hmm. Now, they did this, or the Venezuelans tried to repel something like this with Chinese, a serviced Arab missile system called the HQ-9 and the Russian S-300 system. Now, they're specifically designed to thwart stealth technology.
That's the entire reason that you get them is because of that. Well, that was proven ineffective. So the Iranians, what they decided to do was, and I'll throw this back up again, was to harden this unhittable area with upgraded versions of what was in Venezuela. So they got the HQ-9B from China. They got the S-400 system from the Russians. These were supposedly...
designed to go after stealth aircraft and to make their area the hardened of hard areas to where you cannot do anything about. Well, now we have seen both models of that. And this stuff is being sold and used all over the world as completely ineffective. Completely ineffective.
So now everybody all across the world is wondering what an actual guarantee of safety from nations like China and Russia, what the heck does that even mean this morning? Pretty much nothing. I think that's why you are seeing the typical fence sitters, the people who are friends but not friends. India is one of them. They kind of play the middle ground.
They play us off of Russia, et cetera, et cetera. I think just militarily speaking, and there's a lot of other reasons for it, but just militarily speaking, We have, through Donald Trump and his use of the military and Pete Hegseth and the way he has put this together with our Joint Chiefs of Staff, they have demonstrated the U.S.
military has prowess over the rest of the world unlike anything I think we have had. Well, since World War II, and I think we might have been... We are more ahead than we were in World War II from the rest of the world. The only thing that put us way ahead was a nuclear weapon. We had to use that twice, and that was just so deadly.
That's not what's putting us ahead, not some big deadly weapon, although we may have one of those. It's the way we're skirting around everyone else's technology that is making us... a mofo, uh, and, uh, and the world is figuring that out. And that is, that's got to be freaking the people, uh, in Russia and China out just, just for the, the sales.

Chapter 7: How does the historical context of Beirut influence current U.S. actions?
Whether it's enriching uranium. I just talked about it a minute ago. Um, we take, and we get rid of those and we destroy them. Okay. So they don't have, they cannot enrich in uranium. We take away all of their ability to produce missiles and enrich uranium and make a bomb. That is, if we can't get that in the end, then we've completely lost, uh, no nukes.
This isn't still in my, the best version, uh, Stable, free, non-hostile, no nuke capability, no oil to China, no drones to Russia, and no terror proxies. I would walk away going, wow, what a success. It's stable. It's free or free-ish. Maybe not America, but in their own interpretation of that, it's standing on its own two feet.
No oil to China, no drones to Russia, no nukes and no terror proxies. That's an absolute slam dunk. But I would take stable and more free, but still in an Islamic state, I guess if we have to, but no nuclear program and reduced terror proxies. but all of this also has to happen with something else. And this was Donald Trump's bigger vision.
I think this is why, you know, when I was looking into, is this a just war and looking at the just war theory, you, you have to have a plan of success and peace and part. So that's what has to happen in, uh, Iran, uh, But you also have to have a more united Middle East.
Donald Trump, you remember when he put his thing out with all the hotels and the golf courses and you're like, you're going to make a Trump resort out of Gaza? That wasn't about that. What that was was to show the Middle East, look, you can either keep bombing, you can either keep fighting, you can either keep pouring money and lives down the drain, or you
We can show you how to make this very, very prosperous. And we don't even really have to show you. You've already done it. You've done it in the UAE. You've done it in Dubai. You've done it in Saudi Arabia. You know how to be prosperous. And what happens when your country is prosperous? It's prosperous because it's stable.
If you make this a stable region, Egypt, UAE, Saudi Arabia, all of you, all of you, can actually be wealthy and prosperous and your people can get out of this cycle of death. Adding Iran to that and actually having this coalition actually hold together is a huge, huge win. You also will still have... You'll still have Qatar. I don't care what anybody says. Qatar is not our friend.
And soon, I predict within six to eight months, you're going to see some stuff come out about Qatar that will make that so clear. Anybody who is trying to tell you now Qatar is good, you won't have to worry about them because it's going to be so clear to every American how bad Qatar actually is to us here in America. But you'll have Qatar, Iraq. That's going to be real trouble.
But hopefully a win looks to me that you have now made this more united Middle East to where they're policing their own area. We don't have to be the policemen. It's not us. And we're not nation building. That's to me, that's a win. It doesn't have to be perfect.

Chapter 8: What are the potential outcomes of the military strategy discussed?
But it can't involve nukes. We have to reduce the terror proxies. And we also have to unite the Middle East enough to where they're taking care of and policing their own area so we don't have to. Because I don't want to be there for more than a few weeks. And I don't want any troops on the ground. And I don't want a nation build. That's not America first.
This would be America first, which goes to answer that second question. Is this America first? When you're paying for your credit card every month, I want you to look at the interest rate. I don't want you to get used to that. OK, look at that interest rate. What is it, 20, 25 percent, maybe even higher? That's not normal and that's not good. You're never going to get out of it.
High interest debt has a way of quietly draining your future and you're making payments. You're being responsible, but it's not doing anything but paying the interest. This is where American financing can help you. Their salary, their employee-owned company, so the mortgage consultants focus on what makes sense for you, not on commissions.
And they can look at your current mortgage and see whether consolidating high interest debt into a lower rate, a home loan, could lower your monthly payments and save you money over time. You don't have to accept financial pressure as a permanent condition. Don't. Sometimes it just takes a different structure for your money. I want you to call right now, um, 800-906-2440.
It's American financing.net 800-906-2440, or go to American financing.net and see how they can help you. Now back to the podcast. You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program. I come to you today, um, And I want you to hear me clearly. I am not trying to sell you on anything. I have been down this road so many times over the last 30 years.
And I have seen things that I absolutely believed were happening that were not. I think we have been betrayed by our government over and over again. And I believe too many people I shouldn't have. I started this weekend with... Why would I give my trust to Donald Trump? Donald Trump is not the Donald Trump of 2016. Donald Trump did not do this in 2016.
But Donald Trump ran and said, no more of these wars. Okay, so I want to get into that here in a second. But when I say Donald Trump is not the Donald Trump of 2016, Donald Trump came in and he just kind of, you know, he's got such a good gut on him. He was like shooting from the gut. And he's like, I want to do this and I'm going to do that.
What Donald Trump has done in the last year has been remarkably coordinated and consistent. Now you may not agree with it and that's fine. You may not like it. Um, and that's fine, but you should understand it before you make a judgment on it. And I have, it's my job to try to figure out what the hell is happening and then tell you my opinion on it.
I'm not going to give you, well, I guess I will give you my opinion because I'm going to show you how I thought of this, but I don't want to give you my opinion. So you follow my opinion. That's not my goal. My goal is to help you think this through because we all, you cannot just glob onto somebody else's opinion. Okay. You're going to get lost.
