It didn't show the wound. I missed it. You missed it? I missed it. I don't have it. It got. It didn't pass. I couldn't track it. Go ahead for me. I'm deleting it. Why did he leave me out of my own.

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 be, 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 US 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.

Joe
I think the stars are aligning. Not for peace, but as you said Joe 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, for prisoners, a cease fire. Israelis pull 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 ch. Forget 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 mind 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, this, this breakthrough and I got the.

Steve Bannon
Sam.

Joe
And similarly the Details of Israeli troop withdrawal, how, what percentage of Israelis will withdraw, where will they withdraw from? The fine points that really are decisive in the end in getting a peace deal at last are still outstanding. There's a big group meeting in Cairo today to try to resolve those issues. To me, Joe, the situation was summed up well by Israeli columnist Nehum Barnea, well known in Israel and to Americans who follow the Middle east, who said, Trump doesn't make threats to Bibi, he gives him orders. And that's the way it's looked, I think, in recent days. Trump has been the dominant figure in these negotiations. And as we've seen, Netanyahu has really no choice but to at least nominally go along, as has Hamas. Hamas has nominally said, we're on board. But we'll see today in Cairo just how difficult some of the remaining details are.

Steve Bannon
We pressure. Take this.

Political Analyst
Take this deal. And there's a sense. I talked to some White House folks over the weekend as well. They do think, like Netanyahu overplayed his hand. The strike, the strike in Doha, certainly. Also, word had gotten back to the White House that Netanyahu was telling allies in the region that he was giving orders to Trump, that he was in charge and the president would have to follow his lead. 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 him 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 he, Richard, he seems like he's not able to now.

Steve Bannon
This is the primal scream of a dying regime. Pray for our enemies because we're going medieval on these people. Christians not 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.

News on the Middle east and President Trump's negotiating stance, all of it. We're going to take a short commercial break. Magnificent cold open. Want to thank the team. Original footage from Poso that we didn't get yesterday. But he's got more and he'll explain it all to you. Short commercial break. You're gonna be back in the war room. Just a moment. Let me be blunt. 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 miss the boat. Here's the facts. Inflation is still too high. The US 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. But it's not too late to buy gold from Birch Gold Group and get in the door. Now.

Sign up for free and be Part of the movement. Okay. Welcome back. Jack Posowic's. With so much going on, I want to do the. Jack, first off, you were my. Our wingman yesterday, but because of communications, you're inside the bubble. You were secured all day. Not that some of the audience didn't say that was better, but. I'm just kidding. So, Jack, tell us about your day. We have more footage. I just got to ask you. Maybe we can play it. You got into the Osprey. I thought you're going out there in Navy helicopters. You're going to the Marine Corps Osprey. Isn't that. Take. Like, don't you get actually a medal for getting. Don't you get a medal. Don't you get a flat air medal for just getting in there?
- [17:14]
Jack Posobiec
Yeah, Fleet. For the fleet. Marine Force. Like all of our. Like all of our corpsmen, you know, got to make sure you have the corpsman on standby, I guess. No, honestly, I'll say this. You know, it was. It was incredible to be with the President yesterday. It was incredible to be included in this. And. Yeah, the Osprey. Look, you know, I'm well familiar with the Osprey's reputation, the Osprey's history, but I gotta say, at least for the two flights that we did yesterday, I was smoother than any ride I ever had in a helicopter. I gotta say, it was smoother than any ride.
- [17:47]
Steve Bannon
The Osprey, by the way. We're kidding. The Marine Corps. And. And there is going to be a Marine Corps 250. We'll probably have. Be able to give you more developments on that later in the week. But Real America's voice war room will also do full wall to wall coverage. Yesterday was unbelievable. The audience size and folks sticking with the entire time. It was really great, Jack. So, Jack, give us the inside baseball, what it was like to be there with the President. You were there from Air Force One all day on the. Actually on the carrier in the middle because the sound wasn't great, so we couldn't hear the deafening roar of the engines and the guns are blowing stuff up. So walk us through that.
- [18:27]
Jack Posobiec
Bannon. Yeah, Bannon calls me up afterwards because I finally get, you know, signal back when. When we're done, all those. Turns out when you're on a carrier, on a carrier at sea, you know. You know, 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 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, 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.A18 conducting a supersonic flight. So 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 standing, as you can see, I'm standing on the flight deck just across from him. He didn't even flinch. He didn't even flinch at all. And it's interesting because you saw the entire left spent the whole weekend saying, where's Trump? Where's Trump? He's 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. I have to say, just having been there and. Wait, wait. And spending the whole day as well with the. With 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.
- [19:41]
Steve Bannon
What are you talking about?
- [19:41]
Jack Posobiec
She loved it in the first term. And you could tell that was. That was genuine enjoyment, genuine interest. And they're. 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. On the decks of these carriers. This is the Bush, right? Now, remember the steam? The steam and the electric. Yeah, it was the steam versus the electric.
- [20:07]
Steve Bannon
Yeah. Hang on. The narrator made sure. Hold it. The narrator made sure that. He said steam. Steam. He said steam. Catapult. I mean, that was in the script. Script, Right. President Trump.
- [20:21]
Jack Posobiec
So where we were, we couldn't hear any of the.
- [20:23]
Steve Bannon
Go ahead.
- [20:24]
Jack Posobiec
Yeah. I had no narrator. I had no. My narrator was boom, boom, boom. Of the United States Navy. That was my narrator. Well, and. And was interesting, too, because I. I was the only one who had. It was a prior Navy. It was there. So all. A lot of the media guys who were around, you know, and. And, you know, they were saying, what ship is that? What ship? What's. What's that jet? That's not a jet. That's a plane. See the propellers? You know, just. Just the. The basics. Because it gets complicated, really. You haven't, you know, you haven't spent any time aboard a ship. You Know, people are saying, oh, Steve, you appreciate this. They said, they said, we're going to take some really steep stairs and go through some tight doors. And I said, no, no, no, no, no, no. Ladders and hatches. Ladders and hatches. No, no, we don't, we don't do that. And I said, by the way, when you see them, they are not there. By the way, Steve, I think, I think for the first time on a carrier, I got to, I got to take the captain's ladder. That was definitely a, I wasn't even allowed to look at the captain's ladder.
- [21:25]
Steve Bannon
Well, I want to, I want to go to. Along those lines. Here's what I think was magnificent. And with President Trump, if we can get, if we can get Jack, Jack, if you can send the thing that went viral, I want to play that in the noise in the next segment. But here's what's for the audience. Here's what's, quite frankly, amazing. Normally when he would, when a commander in chief would go aboard a flagship, like a carrier, which is the flagship of a strike group or a battle group, as I still call it, he normally goes camp. They go to the bridge. He gets the leather flight jacket, he puts the Banox on, he gets a ball cap from the ship, and he's up on the bridge watching things. But you are slightly removed, particularly for the noise and the raw nature of what's going on. The President United States was on the flight deck, right? With the Mickey Mouse ears. And Jack, even on the landing, he's just kind of, he's just kind of off to the side. I'm making commentary because we had a ton of guys from the Navy, you know, that spent, you know, 30, 40 years. And I'm kind of talking to him. The president was out on the flight line. I mean, he was on the deck the entire time. He never went to, didn't look like he ever went to the bridge. He was out there where the action is and hey, there's nothing more. There's no more dangerous patch of earth than a carrier flight deck during carrier flight operations. Am I, am I wrong? And that Lieutenant Commander Posovic.
- [22:52]
Jack Posobiec
I'll take the promotion, but field promotion there or sea promotion, I guess. But no, he's out there. And by the way, that's Admiral Caudle with him. So that's the, that's Admiral Caudle. And then they've got a, they've got a PAO who's there, kind of chief of naval operations they're seeing. So that yeah, that's Admiral called the cno. That's the highest ranking officer in the Navy. Navy. And he's out there, the First Lady. And look, you know, it, it speaks to the professionalism of the United States Navy sailor that they were willing to have him out there. And, and again, by the way, could you imagine, I mean, you have to say that the compare and contrast. Imagine Joe Biden staying up there with the rotor wash with the 35 landing just a couple of feet in front of him, FA18 breaking the sound barrier. I mean, he would have, he would have fallen off. He would have fallen off. And everybody, everybody can look at this back and forth. I mean, he would, he would have been down, down to Davy Jones.
- [23:48]
Steve Bannon
What, what, what about Obama would have been saying corpse. Remember that these guys Corps.
- [23:54]
Jack Posobiec
Yeah, the corpse.
- [23:57]
Steve Bannon
Corpse from the Quintel. Poor from starboard. What was amazing is the President was out there for the entire flight ops. It was incredible. You could tell him he was loving it. Here's the thing. 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. He, when he got off that and came to that speech, I mean, he, like, he dropped 10 years in age. All these people saying, we haven't seen Trump in 48 hours. He's getting all. 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, you know, the boarding exercise. So he could see all of it. And Melania, you could tell they were having a great time. And he was so rejuvenated by it. Right. It's like his batteries were getting charged, charge at the same time. So it was just a magnificent evolution. You have to say enough about how the Navy. Go ahead.
- [25:11]
Jack Posobiec
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 asked me to say, oh, what was it? Like to be there. Jay, 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 Damnac 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, Greece, 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 sea power of the United States Navy.
- [26:18]
Steve Bannon
Yes.
- [26:19]
Jack Posobiec
Don't give up the ship. And echoing John Paul Jones Dewey, by the way. You know, you talk about what Commodore Dewey did, smashing the Spanish Navy, going back to John Paul Jones, smashing the British Navy again and again. And then he gets into our great submariners, destroying the Japanese Imperial fleet over and over. Every single major navy of the world, major empire, is going up against the United States Navy and we have wrecked.
- [26:47]
Steve Bannon
All of them big. And the President was so the history lesson yesterday was incredible. Jack, stick around. We got more, more of the evolution yesterday with the United States Navy. The commander in chief really down on the deck plates, saw it real and raw. It was incredible, gave an amazing speech. And as, as we had a number of our former admirals and captains yesterday, say Captain Fanal thing said it, you can't order sailors to clap. That was a spontaneous reaction to a commander in chief they love. Why? Because he's an alpha male. Why? Because he's a natural leader. Why? Because they understand with him as commander in chief, he's going to set things right. Super high level of confidence. Just I can't go on about how, I mean, I could go on forever about how important it was for the Navy, for the country, for young men and women. Short commercial break. POSO is going to stick with us here on a Monday in the war room. Okay, let's be honest. You never thought it would get this far.

So, Jack, correct me if I'm wrong, the President was so enthusiastic about that because you've got it coming in. That's a deck. That's coming across the deck that. The reverberations and the noise is overwhelming. The President himself put that up on Truth Social.
- [30:16]
Jack Posobiec
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. Doesn't even turn his head. He just doesn't even flinch. He's just about his business. He registers it. Takes a look. Okay. Goes right back to what he was saying.
- [30:58]
Steve Bannon
Every VIP that will come to a combatant like that, and particularly a flagship and an aircraft carrier, one they're going to do, not just gunfire support and types of surface stuff, surface evolutions, you have. But to do flight options, you go to the bridge. They're up on the bridge with the Banox 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 in the enlisted men 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 view of the world, right? The kind of the. That is the point of contact in battle right there. That's what's so amazing. And Melania, the first lady, was enjoying it. I was blown away just by how he positioned himself. And then afterwards, when you're, when you're.
- [32:03]
Jack Posobiec
Launching, we were there for a long time, too. This took about hour and a half.
- [32:09]
Steve Bannon
No, it was supposed to be like 40 minutes. I said on the thing, 45 minutes. I remember I talked to you, I said, hey, this thing's going two hours. President Trump will get out there and be liking it so much. Want to see more. But when you, when you get the jets in position, as you know, Jack, and this is being, you know, a plane guard ship, what they do is they bring always a destroyer up, kind of cantilevered, so you extend the Runway visually for the pilot. So there's always one destroyer right in back. And we used to rotate through doing plane guard all the time. And you're also there for man overboard. Why are you there for man overboard? Because every now and again, somebody gets blown off by the jet. You know, when they, when they start even positioning the jets to get ready. Some sailors, you know, out of position. This is why the deck, the launch and recovery of fighter aircraft on a aircraft carrier, and you saw the tail hook come out. It's the most dangerous territory, I think, in the world, but definitely in the Navy. The President was right there. And during flight ops, he was kind of sitting there watching flight ups from the, from, from the deck itself. It was extraordinary, not just for bravery, but also for wanting to be Jack in the moment. And I think kind of see it through the eyes of how the crew sees it and how the pilots see it and how not some removed thing that. It's almost like a movie. This was. He was in the thing itself. And you're. That's why he put yours up that you, you. He didn't flinch. Normally you. You get knocked over, right? Or you'd like. You gotta react just to make sure it's not coming your way. So.
- [33:40]
Jack Posobiec
Yeah, I mean, this footage is extraordinary to see a commander in chief, especially this commander in chief that Close to the action that close to the power, the skill, the bravery, the tactical maneuverability and the tactical efficiency of these operations. 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 the. This to be able to do that for easily an hour and a half, feeling the reverberations of the sonic boom, being that close, watching the Navy SEALs conduct a VBSS assault of a. Well of another destroyer. Usually we don't do those on our own ships, but you know, from time to time and, and to spend the entire day right there on the deck plates and it's, it's, it's footage that was, it was an honor to participate. And I have to really thank. 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 CWIZ demonstration as well as the cannons, the old Mike Mikes and, and so. And 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 you know, when you, 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 he's a separate from this. As incredible as this power was beast it was the, the, the footage that that is even equally as incredible is when he was going and meeting with the individual sailors where, when they would come out to. When they would come out to the hanger bay, shook every single hand. They're all taking selfies with him. They're all meeting him. They're. They, they crowded him. I almost wanted 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. So when you saw that at the hangar bay, then we saw the reception as well at the pier, and it was no surprise at all.
- [36:04]
Steve Bannon
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 and 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 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. 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 the guy that they know as commander in chief is setting things right. This is why, folks, cnn, msnbc, not caring a second of it. You got even Fox Pathetic on Fox and even Newsmax, these guys in and out with little snippets. And I'm really proud of being in business with Rob and Parker and the Real America's Voice guys, because that's a commitment to do it a couple hours in advance and an hour or so afterwards and do the whole thing. And we were rewarded. They gave us the. We had the direct links to the footage that in the cameras that nobody else had. Now it, you know, it's a little disjointed when you're doing it, but, hey, you're. You're seeing an alive naval gunfire exercise and, you know, F16s, F18s, everything flying around. It's. You see the complexity of naval warfare, submarines. Well, Steve, that was, I thought, so great about it, but it was a little. Just go ahead, Jack. It was just incredible and real. America's always stepped up to do a such a professional job in the Navy. And the people putting it on. On. No, it's amazing. Jack, continue.

Jack Posobiec
Incredible. No, the one, the one. The one moment where. And again, I've never heard this before, so. By the way, I've got a picture of it. I don't think I've sent it in yet. I'm going to do that in a minute here where when the President comes aboard the ship, they fly the presidential flag. And so that was. That was flying from the USS Bush and then later from the Truman on the same day. But I actually got to be. So I mentioned when I was. I was climbing the captain's ladder. So I'm down there in the hangar bay. I had to climb the captain's ladder all the way up to the observation post, all the way up into Crow's Nest. So you're going up nine levels. And as I'm there, I. We hear the pipe and they pipe on and they say, president of the United States now will now address the crew. And it's Trump coming over the one MC. So the whole. The whole ship, right? All 5,000 sailors. And they. Any. And I've got a little bit of the audio. It's not great. And you. Just. Because the part that Margo posted up, that's. That's the very end of it. But he had a whole address. Rest. He said. He said, good morning, everyone. It's your president, you know, and. And I'm wait. I'm waiting for the all hands heave out and trice up. Uniform of the day is as follows. And you know, and it was just incredible to hear. He is talking about how much he loved the Navy, how much love he has for the Navy, how much respect he has for the sea power, the understanding of what sea power means. And giving that. He gave that as a gift to the sailors. That wasn't on tv. That wasn't televised. He just did that out of respect for the sailors. And then, of course, he comes in at the very end and adds. And by the way, just so you know, for today, just for today, you're no longer the USS Bush. Today you're Navy One.

I saw that on the 1 MC point the 1 MC. When you're at sea, you're on the bridge, the opposite decks on the bridge. But when you go in port, you've got the midships, where people come aboard. And so you have the one mc, which is kind of of a speaker. It's a handheld. And of course, the way I ran my. As a junior officer, I didn't let a lot of people in the one mc. Sometimes it gets abused. I hear these announcements all the time. I said, no, it's something the whole crew's got to see. We'll do it. Other than that, get it done. You know, 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. Just like he's a junior officer on, you know, in the quarter deck, midships, doing it 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.

This is. This is. 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, the ain't had something 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's going on, right? And the harder negotiation is with our quote, unquote ally than it even was with the bad guys. The bad guys, as bad as they are their money sources. Yeah, go ahead.
- [41:29]
Jack Posobiec
Well, no, he threw out an aside. I don't think it was in the prepared remarks. He said, 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 3,000 years, but we're going to end it.

Steve Bannon
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. 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. 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? So. And you saw a little bit of that yesterday, which was so glad the submariners were part of this, not just the boomers, but the fast attacks are such an important part of the entire thing. Okay, okay. We got a lot more to get to, Jack. Posobec is going to stick with us. We're going to take a short commercial break.

Joe
Not for peace, but as you said Joe 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 for prisoners, a cease fire. Israelis pull back to some still to be determined line. I think, you know, 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 mind that. Will you get serious peace talks underway now, 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 is 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, this, this breakthrough and I got the hostage.
- [45:48]
And similarly, the details of Israeli troop, of the withdrawal, how what percentage of Israelis will withdraw, where will they withdraw from? The fine points that really are decisive in the end in getting a peace deal at last are still outstanding. There's a big group meeting in Cairo today to try to resolve those issues. To me, Joe, the situation was summed up well by Israeli columnist Nahum Barnea, well known in Israel and to Americans who follow the Middle east, who speaks said Trump doesn't make threats to Bibi. He gives him orders. And that's the way it's looked, I think, in recent days. Trump has been the dominant figure in these negotiations. And as we've seen, Netanyahu has really no choice but to at least nominally go along, as has Hamas. Hamas has nominally said we're on board. But we'll see today in Cairo just how difficult, difficult some of the remaining details are.

Political Analyst
The pressure. Take this, take this deal. And there's a sense, I talked to some White House folks over the weekend as well. They do think like Netanyahu overplayed his hand. The strike, the strike in Doha certainly also word it gotten back to the White House that Netanyahu was telling allies in the region that he was giving orders to Trump, that he was in charge and the president would have to follow his lead. 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 how 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 he Richard, he seems like he's not able to now.
- [47:45]
Steve Bannon
This is so important. He's given him 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, Levin and all the Israel first crowd. Is this deal perfect? No, it is not perfect. Are Hamas very bad guys? Yes, incredible bad guys. Is Qatar the financier of the Muslim Brotherhood, according to Steve Bannon, and 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 Posobic was on the show live with me on the 7th of October. It was a Saturday. Jack, remember? Got Jack. I called Jack before. I said, there's something big going on. Jumped on, did the whole show. And we said, if you got to go through hell, you got to go through as quickly as possible. 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 reason 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, what, Thursday or Friday. So Jack Basobo, we've got a couple minutes here. I want to hold you through to the 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.
- [49:45]
Jack Posobiec
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, so you've got the Qataris with the leverage through them on Hamas. That's where that's coming from. And then for the president himself, obviously, look, he came and he brought in, I should say, Prime Minister Netanyahu last week to the White House. I believe the Canadian Prime Minister Carney is going to be coming here pretty soon. But you've got now the president saying, look this is the deal and we're going to do what he can to push it forward. He doesn't need to go through the Qataris to get to Israel. He's going to go to Israel directly and that's what he's doing. It's almost like, like, it's almost like when dad's got a couple of unreal, like when my, my kids are getting on each other and I said, oh, this one hit this one. This oh started. So no, stop. You, both of you stop it and both of you stop it and you're going to sit down and we're going to figure this out. And you got, if you took his stuff, you got to give it back and, and you got to say sorry too. And that's, that's what it comes down to. Because. Yeah, look, we're coming up obviously tomorrow will be the two year anniversary of those horrific attacks, attacks that took place on October 7th. And we were on here, Steve, the day that it happened and we were described, we couldn't play the videos because they were so horrible, but we were pulling it up on Telegram and other foreign, foreign channels that had them and it was so disgusting. Just the things you were saying were absolutely disgusting. And unfortunately we've seen that kind of violence now come to the United States. But that's what we've said from the very start is you got to put down this pack of dogs in Hamas, but then the rest of it has to be settled.
- [51:24]
Steve Bannon
Yep. But when you put them down, you got to put it down. We said from the beginning these people with the Greater Israel Project that wanted the Judea Samaria. Right. Which could be done over time, but they had to push. What did Netanyahu have to push? He trumped up, totally trumped up. Bald faced lie about the Persians. They had greater strategic ambition and they didn't care if they sucked the United states into a 20 or 30 year war. Those days are over. President Trump has asserted himself that, hey, you are a protector. What did Ignatius say? He's given orders, right? He's given orders the way it should be. If they want to go do it on their own, hey, God bless you. Go, go for it. But do not suck us in. We're not in for this. It's outrageous what has happened over the last couple years and we still don't have an investigation on October 7th. And believe me, if the hands were clean in Netanyahu, you would had an investigation have been out in 30 days. Write that down with your number two principle because that, that's going to come and you're going to be shocked by it. There's no way that just kind of happened. Okay, short commercial break. POSO is going to stick around because we got a lot more to go through. From Portland, Oregon to Chicago to Ukraine to Venezuela, all next in the war room.
