F
44:47Francesca FiorentiniHOST
October 7th and effectively what happened in the lead up to it and in the immediate aftermath.
F
44:53Francesca FiorentiniHOST
And two of the things that the article alleges is that the prince of the UAE, MBZ, I believe, he warned Netanyahu day or a week before, weeks before, that Yahya Sinwar of Hamas was planning something big.
F
45:14Francesca FiorentiniHOST
And the reason why is because as, let's be real, as Netanyahu does, There were discussions and talks to lift the blockade on Gaza.

D
14:25Derek DavisonHOST
The background to this is that the Israelis and Hamas were engaged in, you know, back-channel kind of indirect negotiations over potentially lifting the Gaza blockade.
D
14:35Derek DavisonHOST
Those negotiations had stalled, and Yahya Sinwar, who was the leader of Hamas at the time, passed messages to an unnamed official in the Fatah party of the Palestinian Authority saying, asking him to convey a warning to the Israeli government that if things didn't start moving soon, he was gonna move ahead with a plan for a significant attack.
D
15:00Derek DavisonHOST
That official did warn people in the Israeli government, also passed a message on to another sort of Fatah affiliated or orbiting figure, who is an advisor to MBZ in Abu Dhabi, who then passed it on to MBZ, who called Netanyahu to try and reinforce the seriousness of the threat.
D
15:25Derek DavisonHOST
The Haaretz piece contends that Netanyahu basically blew him off.

Yeah, I mean, I think, um, it was notable, uh, particularly yesterday, some of the speeches from, uh, certainly J.D. Vance, uh, but also Robert Kennedy Jr. and, uh, Donald Trump, uh, Jr., the president's son, and, uh, Ted Cruz, um, all of them potentially auditioning for twenty twenty-eight.
D
3:43David SmithPANELIST
Um, I think, uh, I was also struck on the first night, uh, Mike Johnson, the House speaker, got a warm reception from the crowd, but when Donald Trump mentioned, uh, John Thune, the Senate majority leader, uh, some people there booed, um, and, uh, you know, his name did not go down so well.
D
4:04David SmithPANELIST
Um, I mean, some of the striking absences were Republicans in some tough, uh, swing districts who stayed away, and some of them were quoted saying things like, uh, "I'm too busy, I'm attending my son's, you know, football game," stuff like that.
D
4:18David SmithPANELIST

On September 24th in Washington, DC, you have two alpha leaders, Xi Jinping of China and Donald Trump, meeting when they come, and I just sort of find it fascinating that the White House thinks that it enhances their position to have a Canada trade war.
S
24:30Steve ClemonsPANELIST
Like, when you're kind of looking at the global geopolitical, geostrategic competition between Ch- uh, China and the United States- How in the mind of strategists does this trade war help in that overall positioning of the United States vis-a-vis China? It, in a way, gives China a win before Xi Jinping has arrived.
Mark Call – Daily News Update Friday

14:28Mark HallHOST
And at this point, among other sources, I-24 News in Israel is quoted saying that there was an investigation conducted for a new book called Hostages, 843 Days of Abandonment, that revealed that the president of the UAE, Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed, called the Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu on a secure line about 10 days before the Sukkot attack and warned him for 45 minutes.
M
14:52Mark HallHOST
the SINWAR was planning a major operation against Israel and according to that report Ben Zayed feared the event would destabilize the region and threaten the Abraham Accords so initially it says Netanyahu responded calmly saying Israel was prepared for it sounds like the answer was yes they were just not in the way that the world thought and supposedly none of Israel's security chiefs including the heads of Shin Bet and Mossad and the IDF chief of staff were briefed on that particular warning although some of them seemed to know that it was coming through other sources.
M
15:25Mark HallHOST
Says Leo Holman, this latest bombshell report, confirming what others have said for literally years before, and certainly lots of people's worst suspicions, also opens up yet another question.
M
15:36Mark HallHOST
What did the Biden-fuhrer regime know? Well, let's just say, what did those who were pulling the strings of the puppet know? The guy that was sitting in the chair probably didn't know whether his pants were dirty or not.
