[explosions] jesse tonight israel will begin to exact revenge. The Ground Operations against hamas in gaza has begun. Israeli infantry and armored divisions rolling into the strip to avenge the slaughter of 1300 innocent israeli civilians. Welltrained israeli Combat Specialists are conducting their first operational raids searching for hostages, gathering intelligence and neutralizing terrorists. Hamas is no you on the defensive. Israel has ordered a full evacuation of Northern Gaza telling a million Palestinian Civilians leave immediately or become Collateral Damage. Hamas is ordering all palestinians to stay put, making their own people into Human Shields. The terrorists will not be subdued easily. Theyre still launching hundreds of rockets into israel. Hamas rockets not surgical strikes. These are indiscripple and in ba rages that land in is really neighbors and on israeli highways. These random rockets terrorize israeli minds in population centers. Israels air campaign is drastically different. The idf has showered gaza with Precision Missile strikes. Knocking out hamas strong holds, hideouts and leadership. Last night, 750 targets were hit. [explosions [ [ jesse One Israeli Strike killed the brother of a top hamas chief ton an earlier tra teak i can strike knocked out a kin of a top hamas commander. Unfortunately the hamas tunnels are impenetrable to israeli air assaults. Hamas has built over 300 miles of tunnels underneath their densely populated cities packed with heavily armed radicals ready to wage jihad. Israels longterm strategy is to permanently eliminate the Tunnel System. The first step, after the air campaign, is rolling into gaza, where they face mounds of jagged rubble, infested with hamas snipers and laced with ieds. The hamas Propaganda Machine is already flexing ready to engage in Traditional Land warfare. This israeli army is armed to the seat with modern weaponry armor and aircraft. Although history has shown how unsophisticated and dedicated insurgences can have as you can see against modern armies. But manpower could be the deciding factor, especially in the tunnels. Once the idf clears and holds the surface, brave Israeli Soldiers will have to go underground and exterminate thousands of hamas fighters entrenched in their sophisticated maze system. A vietnam vet, a tunnel rat described how barbaric Tunnel Fighting can be. Drop in, and the next thing you know theyre bayonetting you, so we would take a Concussion Grenade throw it in there first scramble the brains of the people in there and get the snakes out and bamboo vipers and other booby traps they have. You have to go slow and easy get hurt with the rope and you would get hurt and they jerk you back out. Theres different levels. They have trap dears with seals, you put tear gas down there, tried to drown them out didnt work. They would have entrants coming are in the rivers and stuff. These people over there in the middle east have learned a lesson from the vietnamese, takes a lot of courage to go down into a dark hole with a 45 and a flashlight and hope for the best. Lot of times you dont want to use the 45 try to use your knife because you dont want the loud noise to give your position away. Jesse this war in gaza will be won underground, well never see the footage but the Tunnel Battle will be sdooif i have and only a full victory within the hamas Tunnel System will achieve the objective set out by netanyahu to completely root out and destroy his terrorist neighbors for good. Theres two wild cards. One, will the United States give the Israeli Defense forces enough latitude to achieve full and ever lasting victory in the face of heartbreaking scenes of Civilian Cas Sfwhaelts and, two, will israels brutal Ground Defensive Inspire Iranian backed hezbollah fighters to launch attacks into israel from the north from lebanon opening up a 2front war in the north and in the south, which could strain the israelis militarys capacity to win efficiently. Only total and complete israeli victory will achieve lasting peace. The question is, will the United States and the rest of the world get in their way . Here now retired Brigadier General anthony tata the defense under secretary of policy under president trump, and Lieutenant Colonel daniel davis, a senior fellow at defense priorities. All right, davis, your take on what were going to see very shortly in gaza. Well, ill tell you jesse its going to be a lot harder than what people are thinking. You may remember in 2009 obama sent u. S. Army into afghanistan and said they were going to destroy the taliban and you see how that worked out. And the reason why its similar because once the Israeli Forces go if, how do they know whos a hamas fighter as opposed to just some man that happens to be standing there. Almost everybodys armed with an ak47 and unless israels going to literally kill everyone theyre going to have to find some effective way to be discriminating in who theyre going to shoot otherwise theyll gain more enemies than getting rid of hamas and thats one of the biggest difficulties israel has. And, look, the israeli army has not been trained for this sophisticated urban warfare. Theyve been trained in other things over time and it will be harder for them to operate in a hard Learning Curve many people have think. Jesse why isnt the idf trained in urban combat . Because thats not what they have ever expected or done it, other than a handful of incursions here and there and those are targeted. But as far as waging war in a city they havent ever done it and its a very different skill set because you are trying to eradicate an enemy force thats hard to identify. But thats just something israel hasnt done, almost no one has done other than bakhmut in the russian ukraine war. How difficult is this going to be when you combine the tunnels with the rubble and the snipers and the ieds . Haze jesse extremely difficult particularly when you think about they have the tactical fight in gaza, they were the operational fight perhaps in the go lan and so the israeli high command is really fighting on three fronts, and the troops in fight in gaza have three dimensional, the high rises that havent fallen yet they have the rubbles and then they have the tunnels as you aptly pointed out. So theyre really going to have to search. I have high confidence that they are training right now on these types of urban combat techniques, close war combat. A really good example from history is the russian second fight where the us declared it as the most destroyed city on planet earth and the russians leveled that city and there was a lot of deception, ambush operations, explosive devices and close quarters combat and i think the israelis would be wise to study that. And our fight in fallujah quite frankly. Its going to be brutal building to building, door to door, and i think thats why theyre giving them 24 hours to get out of town because they dont want to have to think about friend or foe when they go in these knowledges. Jesse if hezbollah opens up a second front in the north, what kind of challenge will that present israel . Yeah, so theyre going to have to hold with Tank Battalions in the north, artillery, thats a more conventional fight, open terrain fight. Theyve done that before. They know that take rain well. Ive been there. Ive been in golan, ive been in the tunnels in southern is thrill if he had in from gaza. So its the second front issue fixes forces in the north preventing israel from amassing forces in the south. So it creates this dilemma and theyve done a massive callup of reserves for exactly that purpose to be able to hold in the north while they focus in the south, what we call a main effort in the south and a supporting effort in the north. Jesse all right. Tata, davis, were so grateful to have you guys and your expertise join us here this evening. Thanks, as always. The only thing harder than living in gaza is leaving gaza. This is a massive palestinian traffic jam inching south away from gaza city after israel repeatedly warned civilians to evacuate before the Ground Invasion begins. But hamas told the palestinians to ignore israels instructions, hamas telling palestinians youre going nowhere, stay as our Human Shields and let us film your death to elicit the global outcry needed to restrain the Israeli Ground operation. This is a cunning and immoral Military Strategy that also doubles as a pr strategy. The only thing that can stop the israeli victory over hamas is palestinian Collateral Damage that hamas is actively orchestrating. And the higher the palestinian body count, the sooner the west stops netanyahu. The United Nations is already serving as hamas surrogates. The skill and the speed is bone chilling. Gaza is fast becoming a hell hole and is on brink of collapse. Jesse so what do we know about the palestinian schnabel well, the people the entire world seems to sympathize for, 40 of palestinians support suicide bombings. Thats the highest level of support in the entire world. The palestinians have also chosen hamas to represent the controlling faction of their government. The government charter describes killing jews as one of its highest priorities. So the Israeli Military is marching into a bombedout husk of a city riddled with tunnels and terrorists and populated by a Palestinian People who not only harbor hamas but are willing to die for hamas. Andy stump is a navy seal who spent over 17 years in combat. All right. Describe, andy, the challenge operating in this kind of Insurgent Environment along the civilian population with a global media thats looking for any type of Collateral Damage. Im going to disagree with your two previous guests. I have trained with and hosted members of some very elite units in the Israeli Defense force. They are highly capable and trained to deal with wa they are about to encounter. Having said that, imagine going for a walk in your neighborhood and think about how little time you actually think about the environment around you. You dont have to worry about where you place your feet, not really worried about angles and then completely flip that situation on its head and look at it from the perspective of the destruction, the three dimensional threats and that every step you need to take you need to not only be sure of your footing but making sure theres a ied in place, one of the most arduous environments they could possibly be entering and at some point its going to have to be cleared by human beings feet if not inches at a time. Jesse and its not even your neighborhood, because they dont live there. This is a foreign neighborhood and youre going to have snipers, youre going to have maybe kids running up you with suicide invests. How do you navigate that type of scene where you cant differentiate between civilian and sniper . The most honest answer that i can give you is that you do the best that you can. I think people operate under the impression that war is very Black And White and, in my experience, its anything but that. The soldiers that are getting ready to go in this environment, they have only hard questions and hard decisions in front of them. And war is not precise. There are going to be mistakes that are going to be made and the soldiers on the ground are going to have to do the absolute best that they possibly can. Jesse knowing the take rain that theyre facing, do you have any sort of time line that you think they may be able to complete this objective . Well, it depends on what theyre going to want to be accomplishing. I would say from a technology perspective, whether youre using robots or unmanned vehicles overhead you can use your technical advantage with they wereals night vision, you can get an idea what the broad area looks like and perhaps you have to pass through some of these areas before actually securing them so it wouldnt take very long. But for them to actually ensure that there are no longer any threats, they will literally, as i said before, have to walk through this area and clear it inch by inch, foot by foot. And depending on the environment and what remains, the structures versus the rubble, thats going to determine the time line but its certainly not going to be a matter of minutes or hours, i would say to thoroughly clear it will take days if not longer. It looks like a demolition site. Very, very tough. Thank you very much, we appreciate it, very good insight and we really honor your service as well. Youre very welcome. Thanks for having me.

Jesse the United States is now fighting two proxy wars simultaneously, one against russia in ukraine, and one against iran in israel. On top of that we have a Fresh Mid EastHostage Crisis and the potential for hezbollah to open a 2front war in the north which could bring in other arab powers. So its been an intense week. But not for the commander in chief. Biden threw a barbecue on sunday, spent two days telling the Special Counsel why i left classified documents next to his corvette and made a major push for killing junk fees. Today joe biden continued to pivot away from the Hostage Crisis delivering a speech on bidenomics. And he could barely make it on the stage. Fox is reporting that the president is keeping israel on a very short leash. Biden has been pressuring israel to delay their Ground Offensive against hamas. Biden is reportedly asking netanyahu to pump the brakes until all Palestinian Civilians have evacuated. Which is never going to happen since hamas has ordered Palestinian Civilians to stay put. And its never going to happen since none of the arab neighbors will take palestinian refugees. And President Biden wont even ask them to. Today, joe already starting to hedge before israel has even begun the Counter TerrorGround Invasion. Were making sure israel has what it needs to defend itself and respond to these attacks. Its also priority for me to urgently address the humanitarian crisis in gaza. We cant lose sight of the fact that the overwhelming majority of palestinians had nothing to do with hamas and hamass appalling attacks and theyre suffering as a result as well. Jesse israels being extremely restrained and sensitive to civilian casualties. If anybodys responsible for civilian casualties its hamas who started the war and uses palestinians for Human Shields. Nbc news has obtained a Hamas War Plan which outlines the terrorists specifically targeting schools and Day Care Centers in in their surprise offensive. Peter doocy caught up with the president after his speech. You all know that hamas what worries you about a Ground Invasion into gaza . Jesse biden has supported ukraine for, quote, as long as it takes. And hes already getting cold feet with israel after a week. Biden doesnt want to touch this mid east war, especially in an election year. So hes doing as little as possible and praying it doesnt blow up into a wider conflict. Hes praying american hostages arent executed, but wont lift a finger to send in an american extraction team. Hes praying voters wont notice he funded the regime that sponsored the terror. Kamala harris gets it and has completely disappeared. She skyped into the Situation Room meeting yesterday. Veep portrayed the exact same thing. The vicepresident skyping into hostage negotiations. Kamala didnt want to come home from her college tour. See here, i think a well known secret about me. I love venn diagrams. I love venn diagrams. And whenever i am presented with kind of like this is complicated, i always wonder, is there a venn diagram to figure this stuff out. Jesse is there a venn diagram to figure out the mid east Peace Process . I dont know. But the Biden Harris Administration disengaged and unserious in the face of mounting
