ur suspicious mind comes up with anything that would be maybe bad about this product taking off in corporate America. Here's what they do.

← Previous segment →as far as we know they can both have, we can still have babies with each other. So what I'm doing, my own cognition of what I'm doing is that I'm not dishonest when I say to the Locals people, well obviously I got everything right. You watched every bit of it and they say yeah that meets my view of the world. Some don't. Some would say the opposite. And then for those who say the opposite I say well that's true too.
In a minute, a little bit, I gotta do some other stories. At the end I'm going to tell you something about viruses that you didn't know and it's important. Do you think I can do that even at this stage? Do you think there's something I could tell you about viruses that you didn't know that's really important? All right well let's see if I can pull that off. But you know I'll do that at the end so those of you want to avoid that conversation.
All right so let's talk about Ukraine. Did you hear the story that apparently, reportedly, Israel did some bombing runs or some maybe some drones or missiles, I don't know, but they attacked a bunch of drone making factories in Iran. Now what do you make of that? Israel just did a massive attack on Iran and took out some number of drone making factories. I am so impressed with Israel's decision making. Their strategic excellence. It's just crazy how good they are.
Do you know how long they've wanted to take out Iranian drone factories? I mean I'm just guessing but don't you think they've wanted to take out the Iranian drone factories since the moment they knew they existed, right? Because these drones are going to end up with Hamas and the drones are going to end up in Israel. Already have, right? So and do you think they could have done it on day one? What would it have looked like? They were starting a traditional war. It would have been pretty aggressive. But and what would have happened to Europe's reaction? I think Europe would have said Israel what the hell are you doing? These Iranians are negotiating with us in good faith to get some kind of a nuclear deal and then you're just attacking them. Well that's no fair. Stop that. Am I right? Two years ago, correct me if I'm wrong, two years ago Europe would have said Israel, you know we're going to have to give you some tough time about that, right?
Do you think Europe is going to give Israel a tough time about taking out the source of Putin's drones? Nope. Nope. This was free money. This was so free money. Israel just had a total free punch and they took it. My God are you impressed? You know when you watch the Ukrainians and NATO and the U.S. you have lots of, you know, maybe this was good, maybe bad. It's easy to criticize both sides. But what is there to criticize about this exactly? Never let a crisis go to waste. I actually almost tweeted that and deleted it. I had a half written and I decided not to say it. But yes Israel said they're in the middle of a big crisis. We can just take out these factories and everybody's just gonna say okay. And I think that's what's happening. I think i

t was just a free punch and they took it. Iran said no damage. Yeah I saw the videos of the no damage. It was a pretty big fireball for no damage. But on the other hand they could come back and get them on YouTube. Somebody's comparing me to Bill Kristol. Yeah yeah that's a good comparison. Bill Kristol and me we're like that. Same opinions on everything. Same simulation. They could have their o…
