We have information that he shot three people. And he's no longer alive. Amen. Now, in Michigan, we had another terrorist attack, this time on a synagogue. And I'm going to later talk to you about what happened there and how the media, New York Times, msnbc, or whatever the hell they're calling it now, what they are now saying, who's responsible? And I'll give you, I'll give you two guesses, Jews and Republicans, if that's what you guessed. You're absolutely right. We'll get into that here in a minute. But I, I, I want to spend some minutes being very, very clear on something, because you are now going to start hearing blame on this. All these terror attacks, because more are coming. And all these terror attacks, you know, they didn't have to happen, yada, yada, yada. So let me be very clear. Clear. Please hear me, America. Please hear me on this. The war in Iran did not begin yesterday. Yesterday was a pivot point, and I'll explain in a minute. But it didn't begin, you know, with Donald Trump declaring war, didn't with the latest missile strike or the intelligence briefings or the latest headline scrolling across your phone. That's not when it started. This war began in 1979 when the Shah fell and the Marxist students gathered with the Islamists. They worked together to destabilize Iran and overthrow the country of Iran. When the diplomats were blindfolded from America and marched through the gates of the embassy and they held them there for 444 days, that's when this started. From that moment forward, Iran declared something really simple. And they've been Shouting it and chanting it in their streets since 1979. Death to America. They chanted it. And every president from Reagan to Bush to Clinton, all of them, even those, those who were just candidates, including Hillary Clinton and Al Gore, have all said the same thing. Iran is the central engine of terror in the modern world. They are a death cult. And all of them have said on both sides of the aisle, if it's not stopped, the day will come when we're going to face a nuclear armed Iran. Diagnostic diagnosis has been delivered by doctor after doctor that the American people have hired. And it's the same thing. And I think those doctors, those presidents, have all in their own way, been a little bit cowardice. And maybe they, they made the decision. I'm not gonna say that they were cowards. They, they didn't have the guts to pull the trigger because they thought there were other options on the table. And the American people said, well, maybe it's not that serious. Okay, I'm gonna be the doctor that you don't wanna hear from today. I'm sorry. Islamism, this revolutionary apocalyptic ideology that is behind the Iranian regime, Islamic is cancer. Islamism is cancer. And just like cancer, at first you may not notice it. You can dismiss the early symptoms. You can tell yourself that you're just tired or, you know, maybe that lump was there before. Whatever it is, you tend to go into denial. Maybe you even begin to blame your own habits. Maybe I causes. I've smoked my whole life. I didn't eat right. I'm just probably overreacting. All of these things that's normal to have happen. But cancer does not care about your denial. In fact, it's its favorite environment to grow in while you're denying it. It continues to grow. And it grows while you argue whether or not it even exists. And it spreads as you debate with yourself whose fault is it? It feeds. While you reassure yourself that everything is still basically normal. All the while, it's doing one thing. It is eating the healthy parts of your body. It is taking it cell by cell, slowly, quietly, patiently, it is just eating. And one day you go to the doctor and the doctor looks at the scan and says something that you never ever want to hear. It's no longer isolated. It's everywhere. At that point, you have a choice to make. And that's the pivot point. That's where we are right now. It is everywhere. And so now your options change. Okay, the treatment has to change. It's no longer a simple surgery that you could have had a few years ago, it's something much, much harsher. It becomes radical because the cancer has become radical. So now you need chemotherapy and radiation and radical invasive surgery. None of these are good. None of these are going to make you feel good. But it's designed to purge the body of something that is eating you from the inside out. And each of the treatments are brutal. But let me just concentrate on one. Let me just talk to you about chemo. Let me liken chemo to what we're facing right now, this war and the effects of it. Okay, so war is the chemo that we're putting it, putting through, the hair, falling out is the terror attacks that you're seeing now. You have a choice. Are we going to treat this or not? Are we just going to deny that it was really a problem? But really the choice is this. Do you want to live or not? Because when the cancer becomes this bad, that is the choice. Do you want to live, or do you want to just live your remaining days feeling good? But they're going to be short days. Chemo will weaken you, and it is. It will weaken us. It will make you sick. We'll have protests in the streets. We'll be arguing with each other. We will deplete our armed forces. It's going to make us weaker. It will lose. We will lose hair. All kinds of effects that we really don't want. We'll be vomiting all the time. Those things are the terror attacks that are happening. And you will feel worse during the treatment. And then some people will say, which in a very narrow sense is absolutely true, you know what? We were better off before the chemo started. That's absolutely true. You were kind of. Kind of. You were dying, but you were feeling better. But if you wouldn't have done anything, you were dead in a very short period of time. You'd be dead now. Now it doesn't matter. And it may even piss the patient off when the doctor, like I come in, come in to tell the truth. But here's the truth. None of this had to happen. We didn't have to do this. I've been on the air for 50 years, so I've been on the air. In fact, I was on the air a couple of years before we went into. Before they took our hostages in Iran. I've been talking about Iran forever. And if we would have done the things at the time we should have, none of this would have happened. But now we have no good options left. There's nothing. It's death or this. And that's where we are. And this confrontation is not a sudden war, okay? It's 47 years of ignored warnings finally reaching the stage where the disease can no longer be contained with polite diplomacy and hopeful secrets. And so the side effects are ugly. There will be retaliation. There will be terr. There will be more terror attempts and more terror. There will be economic shocks, okay? But we weren't better than we were before we started the treatment. We were just in denial. And the effects of it being in every organ of our body was just starting to show signs of a problem. But if you waited and continued to do nothing, it would kill us for sure. Now, what would have happened if Ronald Reagan, one of my heroes, would have gone in and said, beirut, nothing, and punish them at that point? He didn't. He said, we can negotiate. We can do all kinds of things. The tumor was small. We'll try other things. We chose to delay. We chose negotiations for the last 47 years without consequence. We chose sanctions without enforcement. We chose to hope that cancer just might stop growing. It would choose to stop growing. Cancer never makes that decision. Because cancer to live must feed on something. And so it's spread through Hezbollah and Hamas and the Houthis, through militias in Iraq and Syria, now in our universities, now in our media. It's infected every organization our government. It's in our neighborhoods, it's in many of American mosques. Masks. It's here gang. And it is the most radical form of cancer. And the body of western civilization has a long history of fighting this kind of cancer. And so we have a long history of knowing what happens if it goes untreated. So, yes, what comes next is gonna make you vomit. It's gonna make your hair fall out. It's gonna make you feel like crap. It's gonna be painful. And here's the thing you really don't wanna hear. And because we waited so long, we may die anyway. But if the body has a chance of survival, it must be cut out completely. And every cell. Well, you know, when the surgeons go in for surgery like this, when they're. When they think they're finished, they leave the body open and they say, send everything out and let's look at the margins. And then they get it back. Did they cut everything? Because if there's one cell of the cancer left behind, it grows back and it grows stronger, more ag and more determined. And you're in the same situation. This is where we're at now, America. This is it. This is what history is demanding of western civilization right now. Not denial, not Delay. Not pretending the diagnosis is wrong or never came. Not pretending that cancer maybe isn't so bad. Doctors have warned us for 40 years. The patient is finally open on the operating table. Table. And like it or not, the time for debate is over. Here's my change. I have told you this is. You know, I'm not gonna. I'm not trying to sway you, and I'm still not trying to sway you. But I have. I have not been clear where I stood today after the terror attacks yesterday. I'm very clear. I'm very clear. The body is open. The surgery has begun. Whether you were for the surgery or against the surgery, the body is on the table, and the surgeons have their hands and their scalpels in, and they are cutting the cancer out. This isn't exploratory surgery. You know, back when I was growing up, before we had CAT scans and everything else, you had exploratory surgery where they just cut somebody open. We think he might have cancer. Cut them open. The worst thing that would happen is the surgery would be very short, and the doctor would come out and say, we just sewed him back up. It's too far gone. Okay? We. We're already in the surgery. We know exactly how bad this answer is. We're not exploring to see how bad. We know how bad it is. And this might sound like a justification for war, but it is not. It is a justification for getting all of the margins. You already have the body open, so it doesn't matter. Do you think it gets better or worse if we now sew the body back. Back up? Do you think they learned the lesson of, oh, we better not screw with America? Or do they learn the lesson, you just hit them? And they're such cowards. They're so weak, they will never come for us. It doesn't go away. It only reinforces what Reagan sent in Beirut. It only gets worse. And we're all in denial if we think we didn't know exactly what we're dealing with. With. My question to you today is, are we really at the point in our country where we have family members, our brothers and sisters, saying, stop the surgery. Sew him back up and let him die? Are we really in that place? Or can we find ourselves growing back into a nation that is strong enough to say, this patient is worth saving? It's worth the radical steps that we have to take and the pain we will endure because life, this life, is worth saving. That's your choice, America. Back in a minute. Sponsor is LifeLock.

It's Al Quds Day in Iran and the top security advisor for Iran is marching in the Al Quds parade, which should be interesting. I mean, it's a, I mean, march in a parade, go to a meeting. I don't know which one's more dangerous right now, but good luck with that. Something big is happening either today or this week. Weekend. We will have our eyes on it and keep you informed. One of our insiders said. Glenn, when is your son going to join the military? I'd like to answer that when we come back. War affects supply chains. And right now, one of the most important shipping routes in the world, the Strait of Hormuz along Iran's southern border is under massive strain. About 20% of the world's oil passes through it. And when conflicts in that region happen, it is effectively closed. Right now, consequences will ripple out fast. Air freight costs have already soared by as much as 400%. Some shipping routes now require detours that add close to a million dollars to a single voyage. And those costs are passed right along to you. Experts are warning that this could escalate before it even starts to settle down. What happens the next time you need a prescription and the pharmacy can't get it? Jace Medical.

Synagogue targeted and an American university turned into a battlefield for a few terrifying moments. But there's some things that happened that tell us a lot about who we are or who we are becoming. I'll get into that and all of the details of those attacks yesterday. Also, I want to respond to somebody who is a Torch subscriber, Robin. She wrote in and I think maybe some of the torch subscribers are hammered her for this question and they shouldn't. I mean, it's a logical question and I want to answer it. Last hour I said, you know, in so many words, no, I think it was pretty clear. We're in this war now. Whether you are for it or against it, it doesn't really matter. We are now in this war and we are fighting cancer. And the effects of fighting cancer are horrific. They're horrific. And what you're experiencing, it's like war is chemotherapy. And all of the terror strikes, all of the debates, all of the protests, all of this stuff, it's part of the, it's part of the effects of chemotherapy, if you will. And we're in it. And it's too late to pull out at this point because what do we teach? Let's at look, learn from history. What did Ronald Reagan teach Iran and Osama bin Laden by pulling out after the Beirut bombing? He taught them America will bow to terror. You cannot reverse course. At this point. We should all band together to fight, fight it with everything we have and get out of there as soon as we can. But just know it's going to get harder before it gets easier. And so Robin said, well, when is your son? When is Barron Trump? When are they going to join the military? And I want to directly answer that in 60 seconds. First, let me tell you about our sponsor this half hour. It's Leaffilter.

It's a really an amazing community and there's all kinds of benefits to joining@glennbeck.com torch it's a really cool community and you get specials. For instance, today I think we're releasing the podcast from. Oh, what's his name? Cloud. Help me out, Cloud. Bill Cloud. Bill Cloud, who did a podcast with me on Monday that the insider saw live. And it's an hour conversation, maybe an hour 15 about biblical prophecy and what it says about this time and Iran and what we're really dealing with. And it is an amazing thing. And the insiders, because it only aired live and then we took it back to produce it for the podcast. And they've been talking all week to those who haven't seen it yet. They're like, you've got to watch this. It's coming out Thursday. You got to watch it when it's going to be posted, when it's going to be posted. Posted tonight? No, last night at 6pm so you get it before everybody else. In this case, a week before. And then you also, you can see it this podcast tomorrow, wherever you get your podcast on YouTube or whatever. We'll post it tomorrow afternoon. But next week there is a special on, on the blueprints of our destruction because what we are witnessing now is the final phases of the Islamization of the Western world. It is happening whether you like it or not, and we have to fight it. And the key to fighting it is to understand it. And nobody is willing to really tell you what's going on. Thank God for social media because you can see videos and we've been showing some of these videos. In fact, let me show one of them here real quick and then I'm going to get to Robin's point. But how do you expect not to have all kinds of terror attacks in a country where you have Muslims here in the U.S. here's one of them here in the U.S. talking about why Islam is here in the U.S. cut six. Why am I migrating here? Why am I in America? The Prophet's companions left Mecca to go to a land that had no Muslims. We are in this country purely for the sake of Allah. The moment you make this intention, you will look at things different. People will meet you different. How could it be be that your co workers know you as a Muslim for 10 years, not once you presented Islam to them. You don't know why your purpose is here. Are you guys together? We are in this country for Allah as we're here living in the U.S. what is our role now? What is the way forward? Let me just quote for you an Ayah of the Quran and I'm going to try to encapsulate it. Allah is saying, do not obey the disbelievers. Don't yield to them. And then he gives us the process of what to do next and so make jihad against them. What is your duty as a member of the Ummah now that you are also an American? It is our physical jihad duty to fight the entire earth until we enter it into the Ummah. Until the whole world is under Islam. That is the plan. Like it or not, that is the plan. And we are in this war whether you like it or not. If you choose to be awake and see it, we have a chance of survival. If you choose to continue down this road of denial, of. Of acquiescence, we're dead. We're all dead. The Western world is dead. Look at Europe. It's over, gang. It is over. They don't have the Germany just tried to raise their army. They couldn't because anyone who was going to join was a young foreign national. They don't have enough young German men to join the army. And they're not going to hand them guns and weapons and all of this information over to people who are not even Citizens, it's over. It's over. The question is, are you over? You have to watch this special. Join TORCH now. Glenn beck.com TORCH. That special is next Thursday. Believe me, we've worked four months on this. You don't want to miss this. It's truly amazing. Okay, so I can talk a big game. And I think this is what Robin was saying in a nice way. She was saying, you know, Glenn, okay, so her exact quote was, when is Baron and Glenn's son going to join the military? Well, I can't speak for President Trump and I can't speak for Barron. I can speak for my son. My son and I had that conversation this week. This week. If you don't know what you want to do, if you really. If you might want to consider now is the time to join the military, why would you say that to your son? We're at war because I believe we have a president who's not going to put our soldiers through an endless meat grinder without any thought. He is not going to send a single soldier out without the ability to shoot back and kill them. Okay, if you're going to go into war, you want to go in with a warrior, you want to go in with somebody who is saying, I. I value your life over the enemy's life, and I'm going to take care of you and do everything I can to equip you to survive while you're in that environment. War. He could be out in two years. Yes, he might be. He might be. And if we switch directions in two years, we are so screwed. We're so screwed. But here's. Here's what people don't understand from the left. And I give Robin the benefit of the doubt. I'm not saying she's on the left by any stretch of the imagination. And please don't hammer her. Insiders don't hammer her. She's probably speaking from the place of a mother. Mother. And maybe a mom who has already faced this before and it didn't work out well. So she's coming from a place. For instance, I was just telling Ricky this story off the air, and I said, rafe and I had this conversation. And he said, what did Tanya say? And I said, we did. We're not having that conversation with Tanya. You don't bring your mom in on that kind of conversation at that early stage. You don't. Because you know how moms are going to react. What are you talking about? No, no. Know. But people who are cut from our cloth actually believe in something. We don't necessarily. We can look at the military as one of the benefits of great education, great discipline. You'll have a different outlook on life and probably a better outlook on life if you've gone through the military. But we also know that means you got to serve your country. And that may mean that you're fighting a war in today's world. That's what that may mean. This is why people in red states are. Join the military and blue states don't. Because when you join, and if you're in a. If you're in a leftist mentality, generally you think military is stupid. The people who join it are losers. And the only reason to get into it, not for your child, but maybe for. For a minority child, they can join the military to get free education. That's not what that is. It's not what that is. And I believe that conservatives, whether they live in red states or blue states, they understand that, and so they know the cost going in. But you don't have that conversation with your mom at first. You have. The dads and their sons have that conversations, and then they sit at the table with mom at the table and. And you know, that's when your son will say something like, dad and I been talking about the military. And then your wife looks at you and you look at your son like you're dead to me. Why would you say you and I have been talking about this? You and I, it's because they're stupid, they're young, they haven't been married yet. They don't know. You don't say things like that to your mom. You just bring it up, son. You just bring it up. You know, I've been thinking about, what do you guys think anyway? Because now you've started another war. And Rafe and I had this conversation this week that it is a viable option. And now is the time, if you ever thought about it, now is the time to get in. So I don't. I would never. I mean, if you've listened to me for long at all. You know, I cry over Kleenex commercials. I cry on everything. You don't think I feel empathy when we're sending people into battle? You don't think that I don't think of the sons and the daughters and the moms and the dads that have lost their kids or could lose their kids. I said to you, just when Trump started this and decided, green light, go in, take care of this, I said to you, I couldn't do that. I could not be the president of the United States. That was my first thought. I could not be the President of the United States because I don't think I would have the courage, knowing what you know about war. I wouldn't have the courage to say these millions of lives are all going to change because of my decision. I just don't think I could do it. It would take massive amounts of prayer and God going, would you finally listen to me? Before I would have the courage to do it. So anybody who is making a case for war and would not send their kids in themselves, don't listen to, to them ever. Don't ever listen to them. Any, Anybody. Anybody who hasn't, who doesn't have real respect for the military and looks at the military, especially those war hardened leaders, the ones who are generals now but have been through war and war over and over and over again. If they look at them like they're just warmongers, don't listen to them. Those guys have been, they've been there. They know what that meat grinder is. They're, they're the, they're the least likely to want to go into war. They don't want it because they know what it means. But what this means is fight it or die from the cancer that is Islamism. That's it. We have Islamists here. They're in all of our institutions, they're in our government. They have put us to sleep, they have told us and fed us lies that there are nothing to worry about, nothing to see here. And it's time for us to grow up. It's time for us to grow up. Not because I want this war, not because I endorse this war, but because I am at the point, and I would hope that a lot of people are coming to this point where you don't now have a choice whether you wanted to be there or not. You got to do it. You may have been against this, but let me ask you, what happens if we stop right now? What happened? Do you think the terror attacks in the country get worse or better? Do you think we have taught the people who want to attack us here in America that they shouldn't do that? Or if we would fold up our tent and go home and say, okay, we're sorry, do you think that would make them more emboldened or less emboldened? I mean, just critical thinking here on this. It's happening. So now what are you going to, what are you going to do about it? What are you going to do about it? Especially, you know, because we don't know anything. You know, today is Al Quds Day in. And this was a holiday started by the ayatollah Khomeini in 1979. And Al Quds Day in Iran is a celebration of Al Quds, okay? The liberation of. Of Al Quds. Quds is Jerusalem. So this is the celebration of the liberating army that will march in and liberate Jerusalem. That's the IRGC is. Is. They also have the Iranian Al Quds force. That's the Jerusalem army that will march in, kill all the Jews. That's. That's. That's what you're dealing with here. Here. It's not like, oh, we just wanted to coexist. No, no, no, no, no. Kill all the Jews, then kill all the Americans. Little Satan. Great Satan. And they've been saying that, and they're clear. And anybody who doesn't take people who want. Let me just. Again, let me just put you in this quick situation. You're living next door to a neighbor who moves in, and then they move in, they say they pop their head over the fence and say, I'm going to kill you and I'm going to kill every member of your family. And you're like, dude, I don't even know what are you talking about? I don't want any trouble with you. I'm going to kill you and every member of your family. Would you just ignore that? First, you'd call the police. And if the police said, well, call us if there's a problem, but I can't do anything about him saying the. Would you take steps to protect yourself and your family? Would you be prepared if. If that person ever came across that fence, would you take them seriously? Because if you didn't take them seriously, you would be the one responsible for your family's death. Because anyone who says that to you with meaning every day, they're going to kill you, what do you do about it? More in just a second. First, let me tell you about our sponsor. Our sponsor this half hour is the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews. Imagine for a moment trying to keep a small light burning in a strong wind. You cup your hands around it, you do everything you can to keep that little flame from going out. That is the picture of Jewish history. Quite honestly, for thousands of years, there has been a mighty wind that has been blowing, and everybody's been trying to blow that candle out. And now, even in our own country. I have to talk about this if I have time. Today I saw a podcast where somebody actually said. Said how do we even know Jesus was a Jew? Can you prove Jesus was a Jew? Can you prove Jesus, what, what math are you working from now? Wait, we have got to go there first. The, the anti Jew thing that is going on is so dangerous. And by the way, MSNBC yesterday, you know who they blamed the shooting of the synagogue or the bombing of the synagogue on yesterday in Michigan? Michigan, the Jews. Because that synagogue has been around since 1922 or something and they've always been for the Jewish state. So that Jewish synagogue apparently called this on because they've always been for the Jewish state. Then cnn, somebody on CNN said, you know whose fault this is? It's, it's the right. Because look at all the anti Semitism on the right. They've never mentioned it, you know, with all the Marxists, but it's the right. And you know what, in some ways I kind of buy into that one because you are spreading that poison just as much as the Marxists and the Islamists are. It's time to stand up, take a stand. Know where you stand right now. You can rush life saving essentials, food and medicine and bomb shelters, little portable bomb shelters to the people in Israel. Give $45 right now.
