8
Jeezy: We back, not because we want to be, because.
9
Manny: Not at all. Not that we we like. I said, we love doing this for you guys.
10
Manny: But we really had wanted a break.
11
Jeezy: We thought that we would get a break. It was father's day, and we thought that, like all dads, the main thing that we love as a gift for father's day is rest, and we thought that we would get that.
12
Jeezy: But
13
Jeezy: we're back again, and I think that we have decided that when we have to give you guys this midweek episode, as you guys know, we normally release on Monday. But when we have to come on Wednesday and give you
14
Jeezy: an emergency episode. We are going to start calling this the pardon, the politics, midweek mayhem.
15
Jeezy: So we got some mayhem going on that we got to give you on on this day. So
16
Jeezy: Brother.
17
Manny: Well, don't worry.
18
Jeezy: Yeah.
19
Manny: You know. All things considered, things considered, I'm I'm doing well. How was your father's day? Man?
20
Jeezy: And it was good man, it was good, it was a it was a great time. Man had time, a great time with my girls, I got to rest a little bit, and all is well, man, so.
21
Manny: That's a blessing. That's a.
22
Jeezy: Yes.
23
Jeezy: so welcome to our listeners to this midweek mayhem as we break down a topic that is currently going on. That is, that is just.
24
Manny: Mayhem.
25
Jeezy: So crazy right here, so crazy that we have to come in and do an emergency episode to say, look, we got to start talking about this now. So for our listeners. Welcome in. Thank you for listening to this episode. We hope this episode finds you as well as possible as you can possibly be so in the midst of all the mayhem that's going on, I think it's quite obvious what we are considering and what will be the topic that we speak on in this episode.
26
Manny: Bet awards. Right
27
Manny: well.
28
Jeezy: Is it? Is it the? Is it the parade?
29
Jeezy: We look that I just want to say, and I'm not going to spend much time on it, but that I have
30
Jeezy: lined up as a child
31
Jeezy: my toy figurines and those little green army men have put on a better parade in my bedroom as a child than what I saw
32
Jeezy: on this past Saturday. This that was a complete embarrassment.
33
Manny: That was mess man.
34
Jeezy: Was terrible, and for trump to complain about the weather and the turnout to be so low. But all these no king protests around the nation had
35
Jeezy: hundreds of thousands of people.
36
Jeezy: This was just utterly embarrassing, and from what reports have been said, it seems like in by Trump's face, he did not enjoy it at all.
37
Manny: He was not enjoying himself. 1st of all.
38
Manny: he's he's old. They don't have him outside all that time
39
Manny: watching the Us. Army, not not walking. Step.
40
Manny: Watch these movie prop tanks get drunk, terrible screen.
41
Jeezy: I almost thought like, is this what our military looked like? We should have kept this at home.
42
Manny: Out here embarrassing us.
43
Jeezy: It's straight, because, you know, you see, these parades like what North Korea and Russia doing I mean, they be on point like they be they be good. I've seen Homie walk around, holding a drone up in the air in his hand, walking down the street and waving at people like this was the Macy's Day parade.
44
Manny: And it wasn't even like a great drone like I'm like.
45
Jeezy: No, that was bought off of Amazon.
46
Manny: I can get that off a Tiktok shop.
47
Jeezy: But this whole parade looked like it came. They bought it off the Tiktok shop, you know it was terrible, but I don't even think we have to talk about it, because I think collectively, there's certain things that happen in our great nation that no matter what side of the aisle you fall on. We all can agree on one thing every now and then, and I think we all can agree. Saturday was horrible. So we're not even going. We're not even going to rehash the embarrassment that happened on Saturday. But
48
Jeezy: the mayhem that we want to talk about is
49
Jeezy: Bro. The Middle East is on fire fire. It is
50
Jeezy: on fire. The tension between Israel and Iran has literally exploded into what we have seen over the past couple of days with direct military strikes, missile brigades, and just alarms all over the place.
51
Jeezy: But in this coverage that we want to do in in this midweek mayhem
52
Jeezy: is this just another flare up, or are we really on the edge of something far
53
Jeezy: more dangerous? So in this, I want to break down just the days that have that got us to this point. And and just to kind of give you guys a
54
Jeezy: a warning, we're recording this tuesday night.
55
Manny: Not even night. Tuesday, like early evening.
56
Manny: That's wrong.
57
Manny: All we know this pops off.
58
Manny: There is a likelihood recording.
59
Jeezy: There's a likelihood that we cut these mics off, and we turn on the news, and there could be utter chaos.
60
Manny: Things go on sideways, vertically.
61
Jeezy: That wing, that.
62
Manny: So y'all buckle up.
63
Jeezy: So yeah, so there is more to come on this. But we're going to just catch you up to where we are in the mayhem so far. And before I do that I just want to say, shout out
64
Jeezy: to help whoever's running the Twitter account for Iran, because they've been going crazy.
65
Manny: Having a ball.
66
Jeezy: Captions.
67
Jeezy: I don't know. Bro, like the captions and the details is, is not funny, but it kind of.
68
Manny: This combo is.
69
Jeezy: We're at a time like it makes me think about like the coverage that we got when, like we had the Us. And Iraq thing going on.
70
Jeezy: and now social media has changed society so much that we literally have, like a government, a nation trolling the other nation talking about what they're about to do. Like.
71
Manny: There is. There is somebody on payroll.
72
Jeezy: Bruh you.
73
Manny: At governments across the world for trolling people on the Internet.
74
Jeezy: It's 1 thing to troll people. Bro, but it's a whole nother degree to troll nation.
75
Manny: Breath.
76
Jeezy: That like that's that's a that's a good, that's a that's a crazy job. Bro.
77
Jeezy: but I want to start off and just kind of break down the days that led us to it at where we're at currently recording which is Tuesday.
78
Jeezy: So on Friday, June 13, th this was the 1st strike in this, in this chaos, in this tension that has erupted over the past couple of days. So Israel
79
Jeezy: launched an operation called Rising Lion, and this operation was a preemptive air campaign targeting over 100 Iranian sites, including nuclear facilities, missile launchers and Irgc command posts.
80
Jeezy: Over 200 aircraft dropped munitions across the country, even deep into Iran, where 2 of Iran's most protected nuclear sites were located. And I believe if I'm not mistaken
81
Jeezy: in that 1st strike, they killed a great deal of high rank, are they.
82
Manny: Individuals in the Iranian Government slash military.
83
Manny: Oh, yeah, they they came headhunting.
84
Jeezy: Bro, maybe.
85
Manny: They knew where people were at Bro like.
86
Jeezy: No games. Bro. Played no games.
87
Jeezy: quit grade school because of recess, right.
88
Manny: So in that on this 1st night, of course, Iran retaliated where they launched 150 plus ballistic missiles and about 100 plus drones across Israeli airspaces. Now most of them were intercepted because we know about the dome that they have, that our lovely President would like to replicate.
89
Jeezy: Which it made me think about that, because if they can't intercept all of them, and Israel is nowhere near in land, mass, and span of the Us. How in the world is that even possible for us.
90
Manny: Well
91
Manny: understanding that it's not just the iron dome they got there. The Us. Has a ballistic missiles defense system, called Thaad. We've also sent some of those over there. So they
92
Manny: oh, okay.
93
Manny: they. They got some Us. Technology, and we heard even Trump talk about it that, like the Us. Makes the best weaponry.
94
Manny: the most lethal, so.
95
Jeezy: It's always funny to hear people do the trump voice like.
96
Jeezy: Can't never say anything that trump says in a normal voice, Bro.
97
Manny: We've got.
98
Jeezy: Most of those missiles were intercepted, but some of them some did hit so on that 1st night. In talking about the details of that I'm wondering
99
Jeezy: with this 1st strike. Is this a preemptive strike because of national security?
100
Jeezy: Or is this really a dangerous provocation that's going to spiral out of control. Is this really going to be? Because if Israel believes that war is inevitable, are they making it so? What is really happening with this.
101
Manny: Well, I think the other thing that's important to remember about this. What happened earlier in the day. The UN. Had found that Iran was in noncompliance of, I believe, the nuclear non proliferation.
102
Manny: I I have no idea I don't miss that word all the way.
103
Jeezy: That's a that's a mouthful, Paul. It's June, but.
104
Manny: But they had found them in violation of the nuclear pact that they had signed previously. So that is.
105
Jeezy: Is that is that the pack that the Us pulled out of.
106
Manny: No, no, this is the that's the larger, like global, hey? We're not. Gonna we're not gonna try to blow up the world with nukes anymore.
107
Jeezy: Okay, got you.
108
Manny: But they you know, part of.
109
Manny: Let's be honest about it. They've been trying to get at Iran for a little bit now.
110
Manny: right life for a while, and I think finally, either
111
Manny: a couple of things have had happen is they finally got fed up and said, Hey, we're going to move. They finally got the okay. I mean, because the the other thing that's mighty convenient around this is that trump gave Iran a 60 day deadline to try to get a deal done, and all this popped off on day 61 at midnight.
112
Jeezy: Oh, Bruh! Oh, for real.
113
Manny: Yeah, it.
114
Jeezy: Why?
115
Manny: A 61. So with that timing, it's convenient.
116
Jeezy: Yeah, I was about to say.
117
Manny: Convenient that this immediately started popping off like this, and.
118
Jeezy: Yeah.
119
Manny: You saw Israel take the same steps with with Iran that it had done with.
120
Manny: I was going to say, Hamas, but it's not Hamas in this one Hezbollah? Sorry when they started really going at Hezbollah and taking out these leaders, I mean, Israel came out and said, We are attacking. We're going after your scientists. We're going after your military heads. And I think if you think to art of war, if you're trying to stop the nuclear program. Yeah, you're going to want to take out the scientists, but for them to have done this so quickly.
121
Manny: sat shows advanced planning to to be able to move and and be able to react to this.
122
Jeezy: Well, I think that you made a good point. I wanted to play this clip. It seems as though, like you said, but this, this has been
123
Jeezy: something that Big Benny has wanted in the past, and this clip shows for our listeners. This is the stance that Big Benny has had on Iran for over a span of about 30 years. So here's the clip. If not stopped, Iran could produce a nuclear weapon in a very short time. It could be a year, it could be within a few months.
124
Manny: That was this week.
125
Jeezy: Wherewithal the stored up preserved knowledge to make a bomb very quickly if they wanted to do it.
126
Manny: 2018 weeks away from having the fissile material for an entire arsenal of nuclear bombs. We're 6 months away from being about 90% of having the rich uranium for an atom bomb. Iran is gearing to produce 25 bombs atomic bombs a year, 250 bombs in a decade. 2,006 time is running out
127
Manny: nuclear bombs within 3 to 5 years, 95.
128
Jeezy: Bruh.
129
Manny: This. Geez! I don't know about you, but this screams to me.
130
Jeezy: -
131
Jeezy: Hold on! Hold on! Hold on! Hold on! Hold on! Hold on! Hold on!
132
Manny: Hold on!
133
Jeezy: Is that time is that time of the episode.
134
Manny: Time, for it's time for the episode hit our theme. Music.
135
Jeezy: Yeah.
136
Manny: This screams to me.
137
Manny: 2,002 United States.
138
Manny: Weapons of mass, destruction.
139
Jeezy: Bro. I thought the same exact thing, because
140
Jeezy: this is a this is a conversation that Big Benny has been having
141
Jeezy: over a span of 30 years, and he's.
142
Manny: Mad. He's mad like Bush was mad at Iraq for the hit. The the plan to hit his daddy.
143
Jeezy: Yep, yep, he said, I got no, I gotta. I gotta. I gotta. Get my lick back.
144
Jeezy: but I think it's just odd, because even the stance that trump has. And there was another clip that's been circulating on news on news outlets. But Trump was asked about what he feels as though, is Iran's approach, or how ready they are to creating these nuclear, these nuclear weapons?
145
Jeezy: -Oh.
146
Jeezy: Here we go!
147
Manny: Okay, we.
148
Jeezy: We haven't. We haven't technically.
149
Manny: We have technical difficulties.
150
Jeezy: But in the in the clip that he he spoke of, they asked him, how, how soon did he think? He said, oh, they're very close to doing it. And back in March, in front of the in front of Congress, Tulsi Gabber, who is the advisor of national intelligence, said that the National Intel.
151
Manny: Director of what national, what.
152
Jeezy: Intelligence.
153
Manny: Meaning meaning. She should know some of these things right?
154
Jeezy: Yes, I just needed to clarify that for myself, just to make sure.
155
Jeezy: And I also want to add, on top of that, that the man who does not hardly read his briefings apparently knows more than the advisor of the Director of National Intelligence, but she stated back in March, was only a couple of months ago that she had the Intelligence community had no indication
156
Jeezy: that Iran was building these nuclear weapons, and whoever the I can't remember his name. Whoever the guy that runs Iran was saying that since 2,003 he has suspended the program, as he had stated.
157
Jeezy: and there was no indication that he had rebooted or restarted that program for them to start back making these weapons. And when they said this to trump trump was like.
158
Jeezy: I don't care what she said.
159
Jeezy: Think they close to doing it.
160
Manny: I think we did it.
161
Jeezy: Wait a minute, brother, like this is her job.
162
Manny: And for our listeners at home. Let's quickly talk about what it takes to create a nuclear bomb
163
Manny: to be able to. I'm sorry to create weapons, grade, uranium.
164
Jeezy: Yeah.
165
Manny: You need a concentration of a very particular atom called U, 235, and that concentration has to be at 90%
166
Manny: in natural uranium. It's at 0 point 7%
167
Manny: with everything else being U, 2, 38. So you have to centrifuge it. You had to. You had to really work on it.
168
Manny: So this is not an easy task. Yeah. Now, Iran, through its nuclear program.
169
Manny: it it has reached as of early mid 2025 this year that Iran was enriching uranium to about 60% purity, and that 60% purity is something that you usually have and is at limits of what would be like a civilian program.
170
Manny: So nuclear power plants something like that. Now, the interesting part is.
171
Manny: there have been reports back in 2023. There was an online report, you know, because everything on the Internet's true is that as they were doing a a check
172
Manny: and the agency that did it is not not named, but that there was a. The claim was that they saw a peak of uranium, 235 at 83.7%.
173
Manny: And that's wild. That's also very close to 90. But that has not been substantiated by any reputable place.
174
Jeezy: Okay.
175
Manny: So still, 60% is a big deal, because, you know, to get from point 7 to 60 is A is a trip. Yeah.
176
Jeezy: Yeah.
177
Manny: So to go from 60 to 90.
178
Manny: It's it's not that far of a reach. You know. You could potentially get that if they even have 60, if they even have 60%.
179
Jeezy: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
180
Manny: So
181
Manny: it's again. Everyone said they hadn't started it. International communities have said, we've seen nothing that says that they're doing this.
182
Jeezy: -
183
Manny: But big Nettie, big Nettie, who, who, I might add, is currently not in Israel.
184
Jeezy: Oh, that's convenient. Oh, yeah.
185
Manny: According to reports, a little bit after that 1st day he made his way to Greece.
186
Jeezy: Oh, Brad, yeah, come on now.
187
Manny: And the the
188
Manny: Alatollah, the the leader of the supreme ruler of Iran, to my understanding also, is no longer in Iran.
189
Manny: So now we're in a situation where the leaders of this of these countries.
190
Jeezy: As well.
191
Manny: Are no longer in those countries.
192
Jeezy: And.
193
Manny: I don't know kind of cause a conundrum for me like, hey? If you're gonna talk that big game, I thought you're gonna be down there with your people as as we're doing this. But.
194
Jeezy: Yeah, I if I'm gonna talk it, I'm gonna talk it on my front porch. I ain't. Gonna I ain't gonna go say it from somebody else's house like no.
195
Manny: Stoop. Kid ain't leaving the studio.
196
Jeezy: Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's it's crazy, man. And and to your point, earlier, man.
197
Jeezy: I'm I'm sitting here wondering like big Natty, you
198
Jeezy: you got a lot of you. Got a lot of cards in your hand, man. You got a whole lot of it's like that person playing Uno that got draw 4, draw 2 and a couple of skips that didn't happen. And it's like you sitting here now with a hand, a fistful of cards. It's like he got a lot going on. Man.
199
Manny: Yeah.
200
Jeezy: And and it and it it.
201
Jeezy: It just seems very chaotic.
202
Manny: When it sounds like the goal is regime change here.
203
Jeezy: Yeah.
204
Manny: You know, because you saw early on.
205
Manny: you know big Nettie coming out there and saying.
206
Manny: people of Iran, our beef is not with you. It's your leadership. Now's your time to rise up and take over.
207
Jeezy: Always wonder when people do that when governments do that, it's like, Are you really here to do what you said? You're here.
208
Manny: Right.
209
Jeezy: You got a little alternative motive.
210
Manny: Well, I think
211
Manny: you know I think Israel kind of wants to be the the only country right now. I believe Saudi Arabia may also have nukes, I believe, but I think Israel kind of wants to be the only person in that region with nukes.
212
Jeezy: I don't know if that sounds like conflict that sounds like mayhem. So then, man, that leads me to what you were saying about how this feels kind of like us. And Iraq again, was that not the alternative mode of regime change as well.
213
Manny: No, no, no! And oh, 2! The motive was oil.
214
Jeezy: You gotta get it like Dave Smith, you gotta get that oil.
215
Manny: Look at that all.
216
Manny: So it's I feel for the people.
217
Jeezy: Yeah.
218
Manny: Of both countries who are just like what.
219
Jeezy: Yeah.
220
Jeezy: Yeah. And that leads me into the next day, which is that Saturday which is June the 14.th Of course there was escalation on both sides. Israel followed up with some fresh strikes, this time hitting Iranian energy, infrastructure, and missile depots, and Iran responded by hitting 2 cities that were in Israel
221
Jeezy: where 4 Israeli civilians were killed and 15 were injured. So
222
Jeezy: when you see the response, that happens here, it leads me to think.
223
Jeezy: Iran says that these attacks are self-defense, but they're targeting civilian areas. So is that really justified when you're going in this tick for tack war that Israel and Iran has found themselves in.
224
Manny: Well, good brother Hippo music.
225
Manny: So let's let's rewind a couple a couple months back. Okay, you know, one of the things that you heard from the Israeli Government is about how Hamas was using civilian infrastructure
226
Manny: to plan their attacks, to hide troops, to hide weapons, to hide missiles, and that they were launching them from these points now.
227
Jeezy: I would like to say, I am not an expert in military equipment.
228
Manny: But there is. There are various clips that are now floating around Al Gore's Internet.
229
Jeezy: Shout out to Al Gore!
230
Manny: That show missiles taking off from Israel, from civilian centers
231
Manny: near apartment buildings near, like some of their. Some of these agencies are embedded in communities.
232
Manny: And it's it's high you, you're throwing a lot of stones nettie, but
233
Manny: you're in a glass house, man.
234
Manny: And it's it's concerning is this self-defense, I mean in this incident Iran was not, did not attack 1st
235
Manny: for this. Go rail now, that can be a stretch, because we we also know Iran is one of the biggest sponsors of terrorism in terms of funding outside groups.
236
Jeezy: Okay.
237
Manny: To keep their hands keep from getting their hands a little bit too muddy. So do I think there's an argument as self-defense absolutely. Do I think that there's an argument that is not self-defense? Yeah, probably.
238
Manny: But it again, I just really feel for all the people who this they just they're trying to chill. They're just trying to chill man.
239
Jeezy: Yeah. And I. And I think that to to that point even in day 3,
240
Jeezy: when you look at Sunday, June the 15, th the the death toll it. It went up. There was more of hitting these civilian areas. I'm on day 3
241
Jeezy: Israel struck over 80 sites in Tehran, hitting military and energy locations, and Iran suffered over 200 deaths, including members of his revolutionary guard. But in return, you see, Iran let off 270 plus missiles that were fired in Israel, striking
242
Jeezy: civilian areas again, and that actually sent the death toll of the Israeli death toll into double figures. So even again on the 3rd day. It's almost like you still see it going. Which kind of leads me to your to your tinfoil hat, that where they're letting these missiles off at, because I would assume that they'd be striking where these missiles are coming from. But if they are staged in these civilian areas, then Iran is only doing what they need to do to quote unquote self, defend.
243
Manny: Yeah.
244
Jeezy: But civilians are dying, hundreds are wounded on both sides. So when you think about war and what's going on right now, you know
245
Jeezy: it leads me to think that are these? Are these just is this collateral damage? Or are both governments
246
Jeezy: kind of lost control of this fallout? Is it like? Where is the is this the structure of what war should be? Or is this just collateral damage in the tension that these 2 nations have.
247
Manny: Well, I think there was always going to be fallout and not only missiles. So it came out earlier today that there are cyber warfare happening.
248
Jeezy: We hired.
249
Manny: All of this, you know, banks being hit and different other infrastructure. And this is where I think you see any situation that happens with Israel. This is usually where the United States steps in and
250
Manny: really tries to turn down the temperature.
251
Jeezy: Yeah.
252
Jeezy: And that's not happening.
253
Jeezy: That is not happening. And that's crazy that you say that because my next thing that I was going to say is, how does this affect our support for the war efforts here at home? Because normally, that is our stance, we need to bring the temperature down.
254
Manny: But we see with the last administration, with the Biden Administration. That was a struggle for them to do that between Israel and what was going on in Gaza with Palestine. And what have you? We were seeing? Death tolls, just steady climbing, but not a real temperature bring down of the tension that was going on. Now we have another administration.
255
Jeezy: With a a new issue, or or, I guess, say, a new tension in this issue, and we're not seeing
256
Jeezy: that
257
Jeezy: that cool down. So then how does that look for us as as America in our stance? Of how do we approach our support? Because we've seen in in recent? I think Big Benny today was on like fox news and was talking like the Us. Needs to have a defensive posture. And what's going on? And it's like, are you? When I heard it? It's almost like Ben is trying to pull us into.
258
Manny: Yeah.
259
Jeezy: Something that is going to be, you know. Gonna put us in a real sticky situation.
260
Manny: Well and remember who Iran's friends are.
261
Manny: They're friends with Russia.
262
Manny: They're friends with China. Lots of countries in the Middle East do not like Israel.
263
Jeezy: Yeah facts.
264
Manny: Israel defends a lot of us positions on our behalf.
265
Manny: So it gets real interesting. And I think how we've always kind of navigated through that is stepping in
266
Manny: and being like, Hey, y'all really don't want us to get involved. So why don't we all just chill out? But then, when you have trump out here demanding that Iran come back to the table and want a completely unconditional surrender
267
Manny: like this is, we're we're not helping here at this point
268
Manny: you see a lot of countries stepping in and be like, hey, let's let's calm down. This is not good.
269
Manny: But there were reports earlier that China had sent a military plane full of supplies over to Iran.
270
Manny: so like this. Could this could be a while, and I think we said it on a previous episode. Of all the places we could watch
271
Manny: immediately go into conflict. We still have the Russia Ukraine situation.
272
Jeezy: Yep.
273
Manny: Now we have Israel and and Iran happening.
274
Manny: we still have the ever looming South Korea, North Korea situation that is, in a standoff. Then we have the the China Taiwan situation.
275
Jeezy: Situation.
276
Manny: It is never a great position for the Us. To be
277
Manny: where we're having to fight multiple fights at once.
278
Jeezy: When when you made. You may not know this off the top of your head. But when was the last time that we had our hands this busy in in so many different cookie jars.
279
Manny: It had to be a previous World war.
280
Manny: Like we. I think some of this comes to the prominent position of the Us. Has had for for a long time being the World police.
281
Jeezy: Yeah.
282
Manny: And eventually there's crime in a lot of places that you have to deal with. Yeah. And it.
283
Manny: it's not good. This is getting real bad, real fast. But I think absolutely Benjamin is trying to bring us into this. And I think the problem with that is ultimately
284
Manny: there are 3 interests that are in play. Here.
285
Manny: First, st you have the Jewish people.
286
Jeezy: That is a worldwide religion.
287
Manny: Then you have the Israelis.
288
Manny: A good great portion of them of the people in Israel are Jewish.
289
Manny: So much that you know Judaism is, I believe, the national religion of Israel.
290
Manny: and then you have Benjamin Netanyahu.
291
Manny: and all of these things are happening all around the same time, but I don't know. Well.
292
Manny: I'll say, don't know. I don't know if all of these people
293
Manny: have the same goal in mind.
294
Manny: and I think it puts the Us. In a very awkward position about being able to help.
295
Jeezy: Yeah.
296
Manny: Because I think what you have is, you have the Jewish people.
297
Manny: the Israelis and Benjamin Netanyahu, all grouped in as once.
298
Jeezy: Yeah.
299
Manny: And I think what no one really wants to be identified as is as an anti-semite.
300
Manny: So how do you reconcile as as a country as a public where we've struggled separating, being anti an anti-semite that's really against the Jewish people.
301
Jeezy: Yeah.
302
Manny: While also separating that from not agreeing with what Israel is doing.
303
Jeezy: Yeah.
304
Manny: Then, on top of that you have Benjamin Netanyahu, who's now at this point his legacy is all involved with this, so the success or failure of all of this goes on. His. His record
305
Manny: goes on his legacy. So you almost need that is the nuclear threat. A huge one. Yes, but you know what the Israeli people will probably tire of. They're probably tired of war.
306
Jeezy: Gotta be because it. And that makes me question the intent of Netanyahu
307
Jeezy: like what I feel like, that he's this is a hail, Mary, for his legacy.
308
Manny: Yeah.
309
Jeezy: And it's like, Okay, win, lose or draw. I got. I got to put all my eggs in this one play.
310
Jeezy: and if I, if I but that almost kind of reminds me somehow of how trump operates as well, too.
311
Jeezy: It's extreme. It's chaotic. It's mayhem. It's crazy. But if it works I'm good.
312
Manny: We?
313
Manny: But if it doesn't.
314
Jeezy: And and if it doesn't, and it looks like it might possibly not.
315
Manny: Dr. Strange came up to Big Nettie, and big Nettie asked in how many scenarios.
316
Jeezy: Do I win?
317
Jeezy: Do I win that one.
318
Manny: That one fingered like.
319
Jeezy: And that person that was going to be the one was Tony Stark, and we already got a bad relationship breakup with our Tony stark Tony Stark. He, like
320
Jeezy: this is the quietest Elon has been in a long time. I feel like he like us. He's just sitting back like, let me watch this
321
Jeezy: good.
322
Jeezy: This is moving really fast.
323
Manny: Real fast, and it's like, how.
324
Manny: what is Iran? If I'm trump? What do I think? Iran's motivation is.
325
Jeezy: Yep.
326
Manny: To come to the table because I don't think Iran is technically losing. They're definitely not winning.
327
Jeezy: Yeah.
328
Manny: I don't think, Iran, I Israel is losing, but I don't think they're winning.
329
Jeezy: Yeah, they're not winning.
330
Manny: You know. Has Iran had had their infrastructure hit their nuclear facilities hit? They they've lost some very high people in their government. Yeah, yeah, that is, that is the L they took.
331
Manny: But how much more of an L
332
Manny: has Israel taken? Because there's now video of these hypersonic missiles now hitting.
333
Jeezy: -
334
Manny: Like the aura of this impenetrable iron iron dome is gone.
335
Jeezy: And it seems like as as it as it escalates.
336
Jeezy: We're starting to see they're they're they're penetrating, is June.
337
Jeezy: They're they're they're able to to hit, you know.
338
Manny: Yeah.
339
Jeezy: Iran. So how much longer can this continue for Iran? I think, for I mean, excuse me for Israel, I think Iran is, and if and like you said, if the if the goal for Iran is to come to the table and talk.
340
Jeezy: what is it that they want to accomplish?
341
Jeezy: I think when we look at what this administration has done, and and I had to go back and look, because
342
Jeezy: Trump wants a deal to be done.
343
Jeezy: and I get it. You want a deal to be done.
344
Jeezy: What's the deal? But what's the deal? What deal is
345
Jeezy: it that you want? And if you wanted to work on a better deal. Then why did you get rid of Obama's deal?
346
Jeezy: Because it seems that at least from Obama's deal that he had.
347
Jeezy: This wasn't happening.
348
Jeezy: They had him, at least in a in a spot of
349
Jeezy: this was not a grave concern to them, and from what Tulsi Gabber said from the Intelligence community.
350
Jeezy: We had seen that they had not reignited this program. This deal lifted some of those sanctions with the agreement that they would suspend this, and from, if I remember from detail, this would slow down and kind of hinder them from nuclear growth for at least 10 to 15 years. Trump comes in and wipes it out because he wants a harder deal. I guess something that's a little more harder than what Obama had is June. But
351
Jeezy: why not let the deal stay in place, and then come to the table and let's talk about how we could maybe restructure. I never understand his, his art, and maybe I should read the book the art of the deal.
352
Jeezy: I never understand his deal making, because it it does not make sense to me to punch you in the mouth and to say, Okay, let's talk.
353
Manny: Right, because now I'm mad. Now you're not hit me in the mouth.
354
Jeezy: Bingo, and you look.
355
Manny: Like, is it?
356
Manny: What I don't understand right now is it seems like the only reason.
357
Jeezy: That Iran would come to the table.
358
Manny: Is, if they were trying to prevent the Us from getting involved.
359
Manny: But, as far as we know right now, the Us. Is helping shoot some of these missiles out of the sky.
360
Manny: There have been reports that there are B 2 bombers flying over Iran Iran's airspace right now.
361
Jeezy: Yep.
362
Manny: Like. So you're already kind of involved. At least, if if I'm Iran and I'm seeing those that yeah, that's my interpretation.
363
Manny: But then, also how involved now is China.
364
Jeezy: What? What was on that cargo plan?
365
Jeezy: Thank you.
366
Manny: What did they? What did they get there?
367
Manny: And
368
Manny: it feels like we are on the path. I feel like if both sides were completely left alone. These 2 sides are going to just keep firing missiles at each other until they don't have any more left.
369
Jeezy: Yep.
370
Manny: And
371
Manny: trump alluded to it. You know. I believe it was Sunday, maybe Saturday where he's like, you know. Sometimes you just gotta let him fight it out
372
Manny: and not saying, That is a great strategy. But eventually these guys are going to run out of missiles. Yep.
373
Manny: and it doesn't appear they're not close enough where you have a you're going to have ground troops, you know. I watched some videos about Iran and its its geography. There's a lot of mountains. You're not just gonna you know, storm the beach.
374
Jeezy: Yeah.
375
Manny: Of Iran and get in there, not without them knowing you're coming.
376
Manny: Yeah. Yeah. So that that's yeah.
377
Manny: And.
378
Jeezy: That'll work.
379
Manny: You know what is the plan? What is the goal? And I don't think
380
Manny: Israel has a has a goal. I think their goal was to provoke it into attack at this point. Yeah. And then the Us. Gets involved, and then they surrender.
381
Manny: I don't think that's gonna happen. And if it does happen. I don't think it's gonna happen this week, and but at the rate that we're going with this pod we will go ahead and finish recording this. And there's gonna be an announcement of a peace deal.
382
Jeezy: You know it. It's it's just.
383
Jeezy: That's a great point made. Because in all of this, what is
384
Jeezy: the goal? Where are we trying to get to
385
Jeezy: and for Israel to have the 1st strike in this conflict.
386
Jeezy: You know, Iran has been said, or at least is believed. They don't have a nuclear program going on currently.
387
Jeezy: What what intelligence does Big Benny have that provoked him to do this? Because now
388
Jeezy: you're you're you're really forcing a war and a conflict that's got a lot of people involved that already have a lot of conflict going on that already. Have tensions already. You think of like you, said China. And with Russia. And you think of all these things. This just seems like Big Benny. It almost gives me the vibe of like a Big Brother, Little Brother. My little brother went and started a fight with somebody that could potentially be bigger than him.
389
Manny: Now I gotta get in.
390
Jeezy: Yeah. Now I got to come in and be like, man. Don't hit my brother like I didn't want to fight today, and.
391
Manny: And here is the X factor that is still sitting on Iran's side, where it gets real interesting. If you look at the Strait of Hormuz.
392
Manny: It's south of Iran. Iran has threatened to close it before
393
Manny: they could very well do it again. 20% of the globe's oil flows through that straight, every.
394
Jeezy: Dang!
395
Manny: 17 million barrels every day. If Iran steps in and closes that and said, No, you're not going to pass through here. Everyone's going to feel it.
396
Jeezy: I think I heard in a report I saw earlier today that fuel is already going up because of the rise of the conflict that's going.
397
Manny: Oh, yeah.
398
Jeezy: These 2. So you know, if you throw that into the mix.
399
Jeezy: Hmm.
400
Manny: It starts getting greasy starts getting real greasy. But you know who that benefits.
401
Jeezy: Who.
402
Manny: Russia.
403
Jeezy: Hmm!
404
Jeezy: Russia been hurting for some money?
405
Jeezy: Russia. Gonna say, hey, look! Times is tight. We we got the we got.
406
Jeezy: We got to win this big, baggy treat over here. Did you.
407
Manny: We got that black gold.
408
Manny: We gotta.
409
Jeezy: Or you can get at a rate.
410
Manny: How y'all trying to act.
411
Manny: but that if they were to do that, if they were to block the stream.
412
Jeezy: Hmm.
413
Manny: Immediate international backlash.
414
Jeezy: Oh, Bro.
415
Manny: And the media.
416
Jeezy: It would be crazy. And I'm not going to sit here and act like that's a far off possibility that that cannot happen if they depending on how
417
Jeezy: Iran feels, and if they feel like they're getting back into a corner.
418
Manny: Yep.
419
Jeezy: It's very well possible, because I got to think of the mindset of Iran once they get pushed to a certain point, they're like, Hey, look.
420
Manny: But I got to lose.
421
Jeezy: What I got to lose. Let's get it.
422
Jeezy: Let's get it.
423
Jeezy: And I think even with the escalation. And I want to talk about what what took place on Monday.
424
Jeezy: I believe on Monday we've seen the 1st strike on what is believed to be Iran's nuclear site.
425
Jeezy: So Israel ramped up on again on Monday, and they hit I think it's pronounced the Natas Natanz.
426
Manny: I believe. So. Yeah.
427
Jeezy: The tans nuclear site. They hit Tehran state TV.
428
Manny: Oh, yeah, while the while they were while they were alive.
429
Manny: Bro, they were live homegirl. Rick was like, Oh, oh, I gotta go.
430
Jeezy: And we'll see you on commercial break.
431
Manny: Now, now we're from our sponsors.
432
Jeezy: But even in that kind of talking about the casualty thing again, and maybe I don't know this could be for the tenfold hat community, but Russia also hit a military hospital
433
Jeezy: hospitals. Excuse me.
434
Jeezy: maybe Iran could be sending some missiles off from somewhere nearby hospitals. I don't know. Could be some of the same thing. But of course, and here we are with this tick for tack.
435
Jeezy: Iran responded on Monday with 400 missiles and drones, some landing near Tel Aviv, and allegedly damaging the Us. Embassy Building so kind of what you were saying before. As the as the days go on of this conflict. We're seeing that Iran is able to penetrate some areas inside Israel.
436
Manny: We got to think. As this progresses.
437
Manny: you need ammunition for the iron dome.
438
Jeezy: Yep, and if you using it all look, I mean I don't.
439
Jeezy: I don't have the count, but each day
440
Jeezy: there's a there's there's a they sending off like just little 5 teams.
441
Manny: No, no, no.
442
Jeezy: Rehearsals.
443
Manny: They need trump, to sing.
444
Jeezy: They letting it ride, they letting it ride so at some point, you know this, this weakness of the iron dome is a real is a reality for Israel, and I got to think that with them
445
Jeezy: provoking Iran.
446
Jeezy: could this lead to Iran with them striking? And from what I understand, their nuclear site, or wherever it's possible that it's like so far underground that it's basically like you. You can't even. You can't do nothing with it. You can't damage it.
447
Manny: I've heard there, there's only a couple nations that could damage it. The Us. Russia and and China.
448
Jeezy: To the please.
449
Manny: 2 of those 3 ain't touching him.
450
Jeezy: Yeah. Yeah. But but with with our Israel striking those sites to me.
451
Jeezy: could that lead to provoking Iran to if they haven't already restart this nuclear weapons program.
452
Manny: Oh, absolutely! There was. There was rumored that there was a 6.2
453
Manny: magnitude earthquake that happened in Iran allegedly.
454
Jeezy: Yeah, yeah.
455
Manny: And everyone's like, was that a nuclear test.
456
Manny: I mean, you know, if if you already coming at me.
457
Manny: yeah, for building a nuclear bomb and I'm not.
458
Manny: what if you already shooting. Well, yeah, I might as well do the thing that you're accusing me of.
459
Jeezy: I mean, yeah, if you keep saying calling me a thief, and they ain't stole, I mean, I guess I might as well.
460
Manny: Might as well steal something. Yeah, but he.
461
Manny: if I look at it from the Us. Standpoint, Trump has to be real careful here.
462
Manny: because you and I were talking about it earlier.
463
Manny: Congress does not want to get involved. The American people want no part of this. They don't want this from from outside of your neocons.
464
Manny: The left and the right are just combined, saying, Absolutely not. Do not get involved with this
465
Manny: to the fact that there are bills that are being filed and talked about being filed
466
Manny: to prevent Trump from doing this.
467
Jeezy: Which I think is wild.
468
Manny: And could. So right now my my understanding, I'll confirm this, and
469
Manny: but I still hold, believe it holds pretty true. The Us. President can declare war for about 30 days
470
Manny: before Congress has to step in and authorize it.
471
Manny: So technically by these powers, they can do it.
472
Manny: But if Trump gets a little bit too off his rocker.
473
Manny: knowing that the American people I've seen people on social media to the the biggest trump people to just slightly moderate Republicans being like absolutely not, do not get involved with this.
474
Manny: If trump pushes too much, I think there's a possibility that he could drive Congress together.
475
Manny: We know Congress has this ability to come together. If things get greasy and they start taking powers away from the Presidency.
476
Jeezy: Bruh Bro that would be
477
Manny: And could this lead to the downfall of trump
478
Manny: losing so much of the Presidential powers
479
Manny: before we're even 6 months into the administration.
480
Jeezy: Brad, let me tell you that last part Bro. Is this, we
481
Jeezy: on my Bingo card? I didn't believe that we'd be here to maybe year, 2 and a half.
482
Manny: Right.
483
Jeezy: Well, we are moving. This car is moving way too fast.
484
Manny: I want to get off.
485
Jeezy: Let me. You ain't. You ain't gotta stop the car. Just get it slow enough.
486
Manny: Tugging.
487
Jeezy: Roll out, and not not hurting myself. Too bad!
488
Manny: Well into for everyone the numbers.
489
Manny: Let's talk about how this would play out. Quickly. They file these bills, simple majority.
490
Manny: ignoring the fight to even get it on the floor.
491
Manny: But let's say the bill gets on the floor and they vote for it.
492
Manny: It's getting vetoed immediately, because you need a simple majority in the House and the Senate, and I think to be able to get that simple majority from both sides would be simple, because that many people don't want us to go to go to war or move to do that trump is going to veto it.
493
Jeezy: Oh, yeah.
494
Manny: In the Senate.
495
Manny: They need 67 votes to override a veto.
496
Manny: This, I could believe, is a big enough issue.
497
Manny: Yeah, they would want to take it away from him where I think you could get 67.
498
Jeezy: I think you can, too.
499
Manny: And then in the house you need 290,
500
Manny: so there would need to be
501
Manny: at least 78 more people. Sorry I have to do the math in my head.
502
Manny: No, you get 78 people to flip sides in the house to override the veto.
503
Manny: So now it's kind of like trump. What is he doing like we we are seeing happen out loud in this. In the 1st trump administration we heard about people disagreeing with trump. Yeah, but it was largely kept behind the scenes. We are seeing this happen in public.
504
Jeezy: Yes, sir. Yep.
505
Manny: In a way that hasn't happened before, like you would hear spurts in every administration. But again, we're not even 6 months in, and people are like, Hey, yo!
506
Manny: And on top of this, isn't this? Why Trump kicked out, what's his face?
507
Manny: National security, not the national yeah. National Security adviser, Mike Mike Lee. I think I.
508
Jeezy: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
509
Manny: Because he was planning this attack.
510
Jeezy: Yep.
511
Manny: Like, I think, to go back even back again, big Nettie trying to bring him in, saying, Oh, well, we that whole thing about attacking the leader of Iran
512
Manny: and and offing him, and then trump coming out today, saying, Oh, we know where he's at. He's fine.
513
Jeezy: He's fine now, but now.
514
Manny: We doing?
515
Jeezy: That that to me, and the tone that he had is is such an escalation, and even down to like what I was talking about earlier about how he just kind of dismissed Tulsi Gabbard. It's like he. His tone is not even
516
Jeezy: of the approach of trying to deescalate this thing.
517
Manny: For a person who has not been reading.
518
Jeezy: But their intelligence briefings.
519
Jeezy: Bro, it's it's wild man. And and I think that
520
Jeezy: even when you look at today, Tuesday, so far at the time of this recording.
521
Jeezy: Israel is back and forth. They struck again today, and they reportedly killed Iran's new chief of staff. Homeboy just got in the seat.
522
Manny: Right.
523
Jeezy: They don't off him. So that's the second senior official that they have killed in 4 days. And Iran again responded with another 20 missiles, and these missiles injured civilians in Tel, Aviv and in Jerusalem, while 30 drones were intercepted. Now we'll notice. Seems like Iran's numbers are coming down a little bit on what they're able to put out from an arsenal perspective. So maybe there could be some possible
524
Jeezy: slowdown of of what may possibly be able to happen. But when you see these targeted killings, these strikes, and and the escalation.
525
Jeezy: it feels as though none of these, the escalation right now has no offering.
526
Manny: None.
527
Jeezy: And when I think about that
528
Jeezy: is diplomacy even on the table anymore at this point, is there any way possible that that
529
Jeezy: that there can be any talk or conversation whatsoever, as at this point, as high as tensions have been, and we see that the Us. Hasn't done, in my opinion hasn't done much of anything to deescalate what is currently going on. It seems like we more may be throwing. I wouldn't say lighter fluid, but we certainly are fanning the flames in some shape, form, or fashion, with the
530
Jeezy: the the way the President has talked about and directed his comments towards this. So I wonder, is that even possible man.
531
Manny: I mean, I think the worst case scenario, or maybe best case scenario, unfortunately, is.
532
Manny: they might just have to keep fighting this out until there's no more missiles to fire and.
533
Jeezy: And that.
534
Manny: And no one wins in that situation.
535
Manny: No one wins. It's all death and destruction.
536
Jeezy: Bro.
537
Manny: But the question that I have that's running through in my head.
538
Manny: is Jesus getting ready to wear the air? Moses down here, or the Ezekiel? 12 s.
539
Jeezy: Right.
540
Manny: Or does he have a new custom pair that he's about about to show up with.
541
Jeezy: Hey, hey, Bro! I look at it as I don't know. But you know how you see old black people that before they get up. They gotta do that rock back.
542
Manny: Get that momentum going.
543
Jeezy: I feel like he might be. I might feel like he might be getting a little momentum going like, all right, all right. Y'all y'all getting out of here. Bro, but it's
544
Jeezy: there's a lot going on in the Middle East
545
Jeezy: is is just is on fire.
546
Jeezy: I hope that cooler heads prevail.
547
Jeezy: But it looks like there's a possibility that if some somebody doesn't come in
548
Jeezy: and and really say, All right, guys.
549
Jeezy: we need to. And and before I say that I feel like there's also a lot of
550
Jeezy: disconnect within Trump's world.
551
Jeezy: because I think, if I remember correctly, Marco Rubio kind of made some comments like, We really don't, you know, need to get our hands in this, and then Trump kind of said something that was opposite of that. And Rubio had to kind of come back with like No, me and the President on the same page, Tulsi Gabbard, and light of the comment that I said earlier, that trump said, she's still like, no, we're on the same page, and we have an understanding. It feels like people are like, Okay.
552
Jeezy: trump. This is when we need you to take off the diaper and put on your big boy. President pants.
553
Manny: Right.
554
Jeezy: And I feel that outside of his 1st administration this second Administration is really testing him
555
Jeezy: and his and his presidential ability.
556
Jeezy: and if he does not walk that line very tight.
557
Jeezy: We may be in for
558
Jeezy: a wild ride. We're already on a wild ride, but this could really get out of hand.
559
Manny: And we don't have the caliber of people.
560
Jeezy: Amazing.
561
Manny: Did in this 1st administration instead.
562
Jeezy: Oh, my God, man, that's a great point.
563
Manny: Instead of James Mattis, a decorated soldier.
564
Jeezy: You Brett.
565
Manny: The marines named him Mad dog.
566
Manny: We went from that to P. Hegseth, a
567
Manny: essentially a Podcaster. He he is us.
568
Jeezy: In the New.
569
Manny: T.
570
Manny: He just made it a fox. He did serve.
571
Manny: He did serve.
572
Jeezy: But.
573
Manny: For your service.
574
Jeezy: Thank you for your service. But after that post career, that's all you did. And you just do basically what we do on an on a bigger level, on a bigger platform.
575
Manny: You were on Fox.
576
Jeezy: But but this is the same person that
577
Jeezy: was getting chewed out of reportedly by trump, because of the look of our our soldiers in that parade
578
Jeezy: like this is the same person who is getting responses off a chat. Gpt. And we know, could we see that long line the AI give you when you type in a question. Well, this is the same person that's leaking information on signal. The same person that apparently was talking about military strikes in a chat with his wife and his brother or brother-in-law like
579
Jeezy: we don't have the people in place.
580
Manny: Don't have the people.
581
Jeezy: What's that clip? God! I wish I had that clip so I could play it when that guy was like, we don't have the capacity.
582
Manny: Excuse me.
583
Jeezy: Started crying.
584
Manny: Well, and it's not. Look the American people at this point. The morale is so low.
585
Jeezy: Bruh.
586
Manny: Luckily
587
Manny: neither of us are are of age to be drafted. So these are questions that we personally will not have to answer.
588
Jeezy: Bro.
589
Manny: But I wonder if we get into a situation where there's a draft, how many
590
Manny: boards aside? I'll take jail.
591
Jeezy: Bruh. I know a whole lot of these young kids gonna be like, Bro, let me go do a beer.
592
Manny: Yeah.
593
Jeezy: Let me go. Do a beer. Let'.
594
Manny: Dude.
595
Jeezy: Like Muhammad Ali, anyway.
596
Jeezy: But to our listeners, as we wrap this this midweek mayhem up.
597
Jeezy: I want to know, or we want to know your thoughts. If you were in the situation room right now with the President.
598
Jeezy: what what would be your advice to him? What is you as the American people and and those who may not, because I know we have some international listeners as well, too. What are your thoughts and opinions on the current stance of how we, as the United States, are approaching this situation, what would you tell the President and I want to preface that he ain't going to listen to what you got to say. So take that for what it's worth. But what would you tell him? And what do you think our approach will be. And ultimately, who's winning
599
Jeezy: or losing in this conflict. And what really is the cost of what we're seeing? Because we're seeing massive casualties. We're seeing so much going on. And it's really at the tipping point
600
Jeezy: of where this could possibly be of no return. And there is a lot of sensible decisions and conversations that need to be had that quite frankly seem like there may be more.
601
Jeezy: Reaction!
602
Jeezy: Instead of really having that thought process of how do we really approach this for the betterment of our people. The Us. Is the Israelis, the Iranians, who is really
603
Jeezy: thinking like adults here, but.
604
Manny: And i 1 thing I just want to call out, there's a tweet for everything.
605
Manny: Oh, Brett!
606
Manny: But on November 11, th 2013.
607
Jeezy: -
608
Manny: At real Donald Trump said. Remember that I predicted a long time ago that President Obama will attack Iran because of his inability to negotiate properly, not skilled.
609
Jeezy: Bro.
610
Manny: There's a tweet for everything.
611
Jeezy: Well, trump really be eating his own words, but.
612
Manny: Right regime in closing words from my side.
613
Manny: Regime change is not the answer. Here. It has never worked.
614
Manny: It was never worked.
615
Manny: It always fails.
616
Jeezy: Yep.
617
Manny: There's got to be a better answer here.
618
Jeezy: From the ashes, another will rise.
619
Manny: Every time.
620
Jeezy: Every.
621
Manny: Time it happens, and all you're really doing when you're trying to execute regime. Change is growing. A generation of people that will hate you.
622
Jeezy: Bingo Bingo!
623
Jeezy: I never understood why that doesn't make sense to people
624
Jeezy: that there is why, all they would always. I can't remember where that saying came from, but from the ashes another will, another will come. It always happens. We've seen it in movies. We've seen it happen in real life, real world situations, it always will happen. And this is not.
625
Jeezy: This is not the answer, because there's going to be somebody that will empower the people who are opposing what you have done, and will fuel them, and you will have a problem that's just as big and just as just as worse as the last one that you had. So it's never the answer. I completely agree, Manny.
626
Manny: But hey, I guess
627
Jeezy: We'll see what happens, I guess.
628
Manny: We'll see what happens, yeah.
629
Jeezy: Well, we wanted to come and bring you this midweek mayhem edition of pardon the politics because there was so much going on. Me and Mandy were talking, and it was like, we wait until we we record our regular episodes on Monday. There's going to be so much conflict that would have happened that we probably would have had a 3 h episode just trying to tell you guys and catch you up with what's going on
630
Jeezy: with Iran and with Israel. But hopefully, when we get off this this recording the conflict won't be any more crazy than it already is. Can it give us a break a little bit. So.
631
Manny: And if you guys will listen to this like, Oh, these guys are anti-israel. We're anti-israel. No, we just think they're making the wrong decisions here. These are poor decisions that we don't believe are being guided
632
Manny: with the best interests of the Israeli people at heart. At this standpoint.
633
Jeezy: Bingo, that that is a thousand percent correct.
634
Jeezy: That is, that is not our stance here.
635
Manny: We want the best for the people of Israel and Iran.
636
Manny: And I think what's best for the people right now is that we stop shooting at each other.
637
Manny: We take a minute we go have a snickers because y'all real wound up. Go have a snickers
638
Manny: or or equivalent, and let's come back, and let's have a real conversation.
639
Jeezy: I completely agree. Every everybody needs to sit down.
640
Jeezy: and I will walk in the room and pass everybody. A what would Jesus do? Bracelet.
641
Manny: Right, right.
642
Jeezy: From the end.
643
Manny: What would Jesus do?
644
Manny: And once again, if if y'all need help negotiating deal.
645
Jeezy: Oh, Bruh, yeah.
646
Manny: Know that the doors of the pod, hey, look!
647
Manny: Always open.
648
Jeezy: If y'all need us to fly out to Greece, or wherever on your on your dime, because I got to come, negotiate the deal. Now I need. We need the special.
649
Manny: Yeah, I need some leg space.
650
Jeezy: Yup, I need, I need I need the special. But if you need help negotiating
651
Jeezy: call the boys a part in the politics and we got you because we got to get rid of this mayhem. I don't. I don't. I hope that we don't have to go into these next following weeks, and these May midweek mayhems are going to start being a recurring thing, and
652
Jeezy: President Trump and and Big Benny can y'all please let the boys have a break. Please.
653
Manny: Slides, have a little break.
654
Jeezy: There's a little boy.
655
Manny: Just a little break. Yeah, to our, to our listeners. We are not planning to talk to you all. Again.
656
Manny: via podcast before Monday.
657
Jeezy: Yes.
658
Manny: But if you hear from us again, just know things are not going well.
659
Jeezy: Yeah, if you if we got to turn these mics on.
660
Manny: Be hot.
661
Jeezy: On behalf, though we we mad about it, but we know that we have an obligation to our listeners.
662
Manny: And we will be turning on that explicit content flag, cause I'm gonna have some things to say, because I messed up my week and my planning.
663
Jeezy: You. You messed me up.
664
Jeezy: But with that being said, that is our special edition of Midweek mayhem. Here, partner, politics, we appreciate you listening in. We hope this episode, as always, finds you well and like we always say, if don't, nobody love, you just know the boys here at the Pod love you. And we enjoy that. You guys are a part of our partner, politics, family, and we will see you the next episode, many of you, good all.
665
Jeezy: and just your brother.
666
Manny: And just prayers for for the people in Iran.
667
Jeezy: Yes.
668
Manny: Israel who who are having to deal with this, and I pray for your safety. The I can't imagine the leveling of anxiety that you all are dealing with prayers for you all, and you know what prayers for for the leaders of both regimes.
669
Jeezy: Exactly. Yes, sir.
670
Manny: Because there's there's 1 thing both y'all need right now. It's G.
671
Jeezy: Y'all need y'all need a good dose of Jesus.
672
Jeezy: Little dosing.
673
Manny: Well, I need just a little more Jesus
674
Manny: playing with. We're going to send a plane with Kurt Franklin, Tdj.
675
Jeezy: We'll round up. We're gonna round up a whole bunch of people that are of the faith that we're going to send them out there to see if they can turn you around. Place your feet on.
676
Manny: Solid grass!
677
Manny: That is our episode. Thank you. Listeners, for tuning in, and we will see you at the next episode. Take care, world.
