c domain and that Harris, who's got all these women supporters, would go to see him. Now my question is, is that going to get her any votes, being on Howard Stern? How would that get you any votes? Because it's mostly men who watch it, right? Do you think the men who were watching Howard Stern are going to be, oh that was a good performance? I don't know. I think that was probably a mistake. Har…
← Previous segment →ly a few. I'm going to rule out the option that there were only a few. Do you know why? Because if Wray had said it's standard procedure to embed some resources in an event like this, we had a few resources, they were there to watch, they did not participate in anything that would make it worse. Now if that were true, would it be a problem if he said so? If he said there were a few, I don't want to give you the exact number but we had a few and they were just there to observe and that's all they did, why wouldn't he say that? Because if he said that I would say to myself, oh you mean the FBI was doing its job? It wouldn't matter who the group was or why they're protesting. I would think if it's a political thing especially around the Capitol, I would think the FBI should have some informants in the group. And I think there should be several. One or two would be not enough. I think there'd be at least a handful. So if he said yeah we had several, I don't want to give you the number, and they were just there to observe and collect information, I would have said oh good job there, Christopher Wray. Thanks for telling us. And it sounds like you were on top of it. It can't be that then. If it would be so easy to say the truth if you did a good job and it was just a few informants and it's normal procedure, there's something they're hiding.
So what I see is that there were a lot of them and that they were more active than they should have been. That's what I say. So to me this looks like a confession of extreme guilt. What would you say? Now I'm biased of course, but no matter what the topic is, if somebody's answering in this indirect way when you know that an honest answer would be simple and clean, it would be no risk whatsoever, what am I supposed to think? The obvious conclusion is that there were a lot of them and they were up to no good. Obviously.
Now remember what I always tell you. If you're talking about a citizen, citizens are innocent until proven guilty. Yeah, you government, you better have the goods or don't go after a citizen. But it's opposite when the government is involved. In this case the FBI, if the government's being cagey, then you should assume guilt, which is what I do. I assume guilt. Not only do I assume that they had more than a few people there but that they were explicitly involved in illegal or bad behavior. I'm going to take that as a confession. Likewise when the folks in Fulton County, when they refuse to unlock the door that some people say have some fake ballots behind them that were used in 2020, I don't need them to open the door. No, the refusal to open the door is a confession that there's a room full of fake ballots or there used to be and they removed them and burned them. But I definitely don't think that there's nothing behind the door. If you refuse to open the door and you're a citizen, I'm going to say well that looks sketchy but you're a citizen and you have the right of privacy. So if we don't know there's a crime behind that door and you don't want to show us behind that door, innocent until proven guilty. But not the government. If the government doesn't open it, you're guilty. And that is the working assumption that you should all have. Government, you don't have the right to keep something like that from the people. Now the government does have a right to keep some secrets. If it was some big military secret, yeah sure, keep the military secret. That's fine. But not this. We need to know who won the election. I think we have a right to that anyway.
Israel is apparently still prepping for some kind of an Iran response. We know that the American government, or at least Biden, doesn't want them to go too hard and doesn't want them to go so hard on Iran that Iran will respond in some kind of an aggressive way. And maybe that's going to start today. I think it made sense that they didn't do something on October 7th. They probably thought about it but it's better to keep October 7th remember for what it was. You don't want to muck it up with a gigantic response because then they can say well now it's our October 7th. It's not your October 7th, it's ours now. So it's probably good that they waited. But they're not going to wait long.
And if you look at the options, the options would either be a decapitation strike, which would be pretty risky, a strike on their nuclear facilities, which I'm hearing the Biden administration doesn't want them to do that. I don't know why. So I'd like to hear the argument. I suspect the Biden administration knows more about the Iranian nuclear program. Maybe they think that they're going to do a breakout in two weeks if you don't kill it all. I don't know. Maybe they think there's another way to take it down so they don't want to do it. You don't want to waste some bombs. So we don't know what's really going on in terms of the targeting. We're just going to know what the outcome is.
If I had to guess, the US is trying to convince

them to bomb some meaningless military targets just to say they hit them back. I don't think that Israel is going to take on the oil refineries because that would change the politics in the United States really quickly. So if you're Israel and you want support from the American citizens, you don't want to increase the price of our gas. So I'm pretty sure Netanyahu understands that lesson of persua…
