memory, it's the forest, the displacement of hundreds of thousands of palestinians from their homes and lands during the summer spent of the state of israel ortiz maria, from ocean. it has been looking at how both sides mark this defining moments in their history the israel's independence day. is different this year. they were in guys on the long distance prices. israel has ever been waging and it's more than 7 decades long history has claimed more than 35000 palestinian lives in more than 7 months. these really army has lost more than 600 of its men with scores of others injured. and they swore it continues with no sign of ending of this year under the shadow of the ongoing comes from the traditional story. many memories, cities relevant independence say here has the president's residence in jerusalem as being attended only by families of outstanding soldiers, periods, families, and the owner and military members. and his speech. president harrison describes it

as a celebration of pain when we carry so much pain morning. so much concern for hostages and soldiers so much sorrow in grief. how can we behave as usual? now, when i look at you, 120 outstanding soldiers of these really defense forces. i know i made the right decision. you are 120 beacons of light, 120 sources of comfort. 120 sources of a 100 of kilometers away. and as well as north, there was another massive gathering with painful feelings for a different reason. most of these people hold is rarely passports, but for them, the creation of israel is associated with a tragedy. points relays today is a day of celebrating 76 years since they stablish mental fast states for palestinians. most things really arabs who also identify themselves as palestinians

and even some dues, it is not about a catastrophe in arabic marketing. the expulsion of hundreds of thousands of arabs from the homelands back in 1948. we are now at the 27th march all return organized by different groups of activists from jewish in arab communities. they come here, many of them carrying poly seen in flags, as you can see, to remind everyone that they can be known. celebration is on to their rights. so return are restored according to you and estimates around the time when these, where it was founded. more than $500.00 arab townsend, which is, were forcibly just populated. most of them were destroyed and replaced by israeli cities and towns. they celebrates the country, which has been cellphone and mazda of ethnic cleansing. and it's important to remember that this not the box is nothing, is solely cutting events. they're not going to continue each and every day since

the last page it came to me because i was a genocide consultant, especially the see. and so remember that they both feel sense because i'm actually like you warm at me kind of plan villages on the cause of all the signs they're not by now. second class citizens also can see member of these really pull them in from jewish, an arab head. gosh buddy, do himself says israel has no reason to celebrate the state of physics in order to be really free. and really independent. must be nice with the patient, as government said 200 years ago, a lot of most a nation that's all to buy another one. it says never be fully as long as the police being and people is not the defendants. so these are the areas i don't know, do you defend them either the policy didn't cause has been there for decades because the warrens that asked to how much is attack on israel last october that led to the gas of war and dramatically medicalized ation of those valley seen in

and is rarely societies now comes of critical time do so even it's part of his vision that was never to do like we see we sense it's today. we are on the brink of receiving was we seen these tonight. this is very tangible. it may be tomorrow or even one month, but you can see the level of violence in the streets. not only in does, i'm the, it was the doing bank. what we're saying is why you can see the level of violence is on the rise. this row marks it's $7.00 to $6.00 independent say ran event that's supposed to synchronize the public good society to remain very much divided over with the same thing to will also be some of them say that the israel has split into 2 incompatible jury states over the ongoing war in gaza and some long lost same issues and that is what the car in the mail with for us, the reproduction of the reporting from jerusalem,

the ground to stay with us. i'll be back with much more about 25 the everybody i'm or sanchez. this is direct impact. and i want you to look at something you guys seem to be sort of saying that boots on appear connected to the ground connected to service members shooting into gaza. doesn't count as boots on the ground. it does not because i think you're gonna find the of the american people have a different perspective on that. and if we're gonna have people shoot in the gaza, we probably should have a vote on that. is 100 percent correct? that we shouldn't have a vote on that, but then again, what was the last time us citizens were asked for their take on any military adventures or actions, or even congress. for that matter, even though the constitution says they're supposed to approve these types of things,

you're going to hear a lot more of this really passed the exchange between congress been met gauge and the secretary of defense. i'm rick sanchez. let's get to it. it's the all right, so here's what i want you to do. i want you to hear this full exchange now between congressman gates and the fed secretary austin. i want you to pay particular attention to how casual lloyd austin is about, or planning and troop movements and without any apparent consideration of the consequences. and why is that this conversation? right? but you're about to hear. it could be about ukraine. it could be of itself trying to see often is iran, but as well really just about any place. but in this particular occasion, it happens to be about the decision that president biden has made to send troops on to some floating peer off the coast of gaza. here it is from the beginning miss

locke and just said they'll be about a 1000 us service members operating appear system off of gaza. how many of them will have guns, mr. secretary? what typically all of the non deployed servers, member carry, service members carry guns and they have the ability to protect themselves as to the challenge. so if someone from land and gaza shoots at our service members who are on the 320000000 dollar peer that we're building, you're telling me our service members can shoot back. they, they have the, they have the right to, to return for our to protect themselves. now what do we do? that's why i so now want to move to the likelihood that you think someone from land and gaza might shoot at our service members on this peer, do you think that that's a likely scenario? that's possible. yes. this is a very telling moment mr. secretary, because you've said something that's quite possible that could happen right. shots

from gaza on our service members. and then the response arm service members shooting live, fired into guys. that is a possible outcome here so that we can become the port authority and run this here . right. is that that's correct, and i expect that we will always the accounting person that's on the ground. president biden told the country that we weren't going to have boots on the ground in gossip, and we won't. okay, but you guys of course, the distinction between like when americans think boots on the ground, they think americans in harm's way or engaged actively in a conflict. you guys seem to be sort of saying that boots on appear connected to the ground connected to service members shooting in the gaza. doesn't count as boots on the ground. it does not. i think you're gonna find that the american people have a different perspective on that. and if we're gonna have people shoot in the gaza, we probably should have a vote on that. we should have

a vote on that and think about what he's saying about the people who may be shooting a u. s. troops aren't going to shoot because they're not actually on the territory . they're on a piece of wood that just as connected to the territory. that seems ludicrous. and by the way, here's another part of the debate that i want to share with you. this is important . this one is about the f 35. it's a little bit about the f 35, it's one of the most expensive style farmers that's ever been built, which up until recently hasn't even been able to fly because apparently it's too dangerous. so it it according to what we read it of tracks lightning. so if it's ever going through any kind of storms while it's flying, like dogs is going to be storms everywhere, right? it could blow up in mid air because it attracts monthly. right? really consider this is plain cost, a $135000000.00 to build and there are about $450.00 out of them out there right now already i did the math on that just on my, you know, on my iphone. that means that we have spent $61000000000.00 on these things.

here's a strange. how many $100000000.00 paper weights do we own? i would not categorize the f $35.00 as a paperweight, watson, if it's not mission capable, it's what, what do we just stare at? and in myers we, we continue to work to make sure that we, we get our aircraft to operational and continue to, uh, and, and come in, oh, don't you think it a 100000000 eclip more than 29 percent should be fully operational. and if the fact that we can't get them operational, you know, you know what secretary kendall said when he was sent in that year he said the core root of the problem is that we had let lockheed martin build this thing. and then we gave lockheed martin the full system performance contract and they keep building us according to the ga o and we sit around staring at a $100000000.00 airplane that can't fully perform the mission and yours. and you're telling me it's a, it's not a failure. just own up to it. mr. secretary,

just say this airframe has not delivered. it's too costly. it's not, it's not being utilized as we should. and we should never again make the mistake of doing a full system performance contract with the very person to build the aircraft. can we agree to that? i agree in the future, we should take a we should have a different approach. but this is exactly what we were just talking about the other day with boeing. they do it over and over again, even if they say they're not going to do it. they will. in fact, let's talk here just a little bit about what mr. congressman gave was saying, right, they like lockheed martin, come in and build this f $35.00 without oversight. that means that lockheed martin gets to build it. they get to do their own review and then they turn around and tell the government, no, it's great. don't worry about it, it's in perfect condition. we did a great job. well, however, gonna say that, but it wasn't in great shape. so why with a pedagogy, why would congress approve of something like this? you know, why? let me tell you why, you know why?

because it's not fair money, it's not fair money. your tax money, my tax money. and when it comes to anything having to do with the military, they think all they have to do is say, rob rob, raul, god bless america, we love our troops, you know, fly a couple of planes before the football games and then we tax payers. we'll just go along with anything. no questions asked, how much do you want a $100000000000.00? you got it. what claims? bombs another war somewhere in a place that we couldn't even find on a map. why not? i'll tell you congressman gates. he may be one of the few, but he's telling the truth in this case manila, what do you think of these exchanges? yeah, rick, i mean, where do we begin? i mean, what kind of world are we in that, mat gates and, and even someone like marjorie taylor green are the ones that we should be listening to. right. let's start with this f 35. i'm going to call it the fair weather jet. so the g a o actually says that the d o d a currently has about 630 f 30 fives,

and they plan to buy about 1800 more and they intend to use them until 2088. rec, so the projected cost to sustain these. and flyable jets is going to cost well over a trillion dollars up into $11.00 and a half truly. and that was the ga o's review in 2023. so what's the way, way more way, cost overrun after cost overrun, and their performance has been down over the last 5 years. so what mat gates is saying here that it's, you know, a multi 1000000000 dollar paper weight is absolutely right. but the bigger question is, as you pointed out and you will looted to why is matt gates the only one song about this or even marjorie taylor grade? why are those to the ones talking about well well i'm, i'm going to, i'm glad you said that. i'm glad you said that because here's another one. congressman margery taylor. great. right. you're right. sometimes she's been as crazy as a loon on something. i think she said in the past, but she's been making

a lot of sense slightly much like congressman gauge. she's also asking a lot of important questions. she's asking why we don't better handle our borders as your questions, why we spend hundreds of billions of dollars. so contractors can get rich, she criticizes, or congressional colleagues to write to their face for taking money from lobby is as you call the speaker of a house, a sellout. so this past week when she rose to ask for his removal for breaking his promise on, on spending to watch this watch watch window or how she was treated, the resolution is as follows. declaring the office of speaker of the house of representatives to be vacant the this is for you and a party for the american people watching to suspend the order.

isn't she right? i mean, they like to pretend to argue about where do you shoes, right? all the time and congress, you know, that really have, has no effect on my life for your life, for most citizens life. but on the big stuff, the important stuff moore's spending and the money they take from, from donors to, to do their bidding. she's why they are a new on a party manila, i mean she's, she's saying it and they're bowing or but she's telling them the truth. they don't want to hear a yep. that's precisely why they're bullying her. read. i mean, let's face it. we know that the 2 big parties, the democrats and the republicans, they are 2 wings on the same bird. i mean, the semantics might be different here and there, the details might be different. but the big issues that whether it's supporting war, whether a supporting censorship or, or anything else like that,

they're all the same. and then it just becomes the little details of here. and there are what differentiates between the 2 parties. but at the end of the day, war being the big money maker for everybody on capital hill, they always agree. everything is always gonna increase the budget's the bloated road in the budget. the d o d gets what they want all the time for stuff that doesn't work. they'll go for 3 weeks talking about something someone said on tv or some kids who dressed up as a woman to play basketball in missouri or, or something that yeah, it's important, but it's not as important as a $150000000000.00 on a useless war. but that's what they'll spend a long time picking their little wedge issues. left, right, left, right. well we sit here often times as citizens going. oh yeah, that's really important. well, it's not, not as important. by the way. i got something else for you and told her, remember, i called her and she's back in the news. for those of you who don't know, she's

a woman who got famous and made a lot of money saying controversial if not bigoted things about hispanics and blacks, and muslims of errands and whatever. so he's one of the most famous by the way, one of the most famous indian americans, i should say, is a guy named becker on the swami who recently ran for president. well, here is a ann coulter telling him, she could never vote for him to his face because he's indian and you are so bright and articulate and i guess i can call you articulate since you're not an american black. oh, and i agree with many, many things you said during, in fact, probably more than than most other candidates when you're running for president, but i still would not have voted for you because you're in indian. let me tell you something about it in cold or i know and cold and we talk on the phone. i've been here many, many times when i was it cnn and nbc that she said crazy and bigoted things to sell

books. yes. but she also believe it, i think yes, both can be true because i think it is you can say something long enough after a while, you start buying what you preach. so i say yes on both counts, but i'm, i'm dying to hear what you have to say about this manila. do you, do you think she's just doing it to sell books and to be famous? and i guess to get more followers or, or so she pick it or you know what? i mean both can be true, right? like you said she might have, i mean, we can't get into her heart, correct. and for most we figured that out there. well no we, we can never know what's really in somebody's heart, and i've said this over and over that, you know, you can never legislate out that type of hatred if she does indeed have it. but let's point out a couple of other things, even though she said that she would never vote for vic ramos swami, because he's quote, an india. and even though he was born in ohio, he was born and raised here in the us. right. point. she also she also dated nash

desousa, you know, the very conservative filmmaker pond it over geo q loves him. she dated him. so i don't know as a woman, a part of me, a part of me feels like she's kind of doing this. it's a lot of bluster, a lot of hot air. she gets cliques, people by her books. but i don't know, i feel like a lot of this is an image similar to what we saw with alex jones that from, from all accounts, from what i've heard. he's not as nutty as he portrays on his show and maybe an is not as big it is as she portrays publicly. i think that's fair and i think you've stated it well and thank you for reminding us that he was born in ohio. so yeah, his is of indian set. he's not an indian a great job. you know, thank you so much. we appreciate the information when we come back, then dell is

a lawyer from tennessee. we recently serve as a qualify election monitor and russia during their presidential election that has given them the kind of insight. most westerners don't have very is right there. you're looking at them handsome devil, steve is going to join us when we come back right here under active impact. the the

joining us now as promised is uh attorney. uh, steve gill from nashville. uh steve, thanks so much for joining us, man. thank you. hey, let me text real quickly on the last segment. sure. i hate to disrespect the secretary defense, but he's an other book. boone, a moss, is shooting at the delivery of medicine and food on the ground and gaza. what do we think they're going to do as they're meeting our trips on appear that's connected to the ground? and what happens when the truck moves from the pier into the dogs and they're going to take the food and medicine just like they've been doing. and the f 35, this is the same place that you had the pilot bailout and kind of blew by itself.

and they lost in south carolina because of a thunder storm. what are we going to do and give this to the secretary to get? what are we going to do it for? try that by one of these bombers into a place where it's nice and sunny, where it's taking off, but cloudy, where it's going. there may be thunderstorms in the middle. do we call time out? and hope the enemy decides to fight another day. this, this guy's worse than joe by mentally, but i would argue with you, it's not him. we keep doing that. that's the problem we have in this country all have a republican on the show, like you and he'll tell me, oh, this guy's bad because there's a democrat in the white house. then we've got a republican in the white house like trump, and they make the same stupid decisions. and they do the same. well. i like marjorie's evergreen said yeah, so you know, part of it is, all of these dies leave the department of defense of department state and they go right to work for these military contractors getting paid, preserving their security clearance so they can still say, hey, here's what's coming next, we need to do this weapon act. we need to do this way and that they get paid and

keep their security clearance after they leave. and after they betray our country is, is bad on both parties and it's, it's intolerable if there's one thing we've recently learned. and i mentioned this earlier in, during my introduction to one of the segments that i just did with another was the more i looked into this boeing fiasco that we're going through. the more i see how the government just basically turned its back on boeing and literally said to them, do whatever you gotta know, inspect your own planes. tell us how the inspections are going. tell us what kind of equipment you're using, make them wherever that how you want. don't listen to your employees, bottom, everything on your pilots, etc, etc. without. i mean, i'm sorry, but there are some things right? that the government does need to provide oversight for. and the safety of my ma, my boss, my, my wife or my kids, or you and your wife for your kids on a plane is one of the same thing with this case would be of $35.00. they just turn

it over to them and said, okay, you guys back to tell us what it's good to go and we'll put it up in the air. what? well, the students everywhere she decided to demand the same ability to sell grade. and then we'd have everybody with the 4 point. oh, a nice with yeah, i got a degree from harvard. where is it? oh, i said i get it so that must be good enough. it is there. are you challenged recently? and i know you look at this and do you agree with the mat gates of the world in the marjorie taylor greens of the world with a massive from ohio. and you know, some of the libertarian thinkers in our government, uh like, uh, you know, ron paul and his son who, who are. but we said, we've got to stop spending so much money because people simply get rich and pay congress to do it. aren't they right? what we're certainly saying that in the aftermath of, of the cobit vaccine debacle, where pfizer and my daughter are now admitted, they were prescribing

a different backs to their employees. they, in the members of congress, weren't taking the st backs. they were dispensing. we're now finding that the 6 foot roll is completely bogus. but you know, steve, as long as i'm thinking about this and i'm listening to you and i'm having this conversation, you know? sure i, i tend to lean conservative as well. and i, i tend to be somebody who believes that we should not let the government run a mock, but there, there is a place where we can't just let a private company run a mock with whatever the hell it wants to do. i know some people say, well, once the government gets involved, it's bad. once of government gets involved, it's communism. not always. there's times when you want. i don't want my police officer to be a private dude working for some guy who is my neighbor, who's getting my, we're basically like what you know is doing something with my wife or somebody else's life. i want the government to be involved in law enforcement matters. of security, etc. am i wrong?

but we need to have officials who are going to. busy the line and hold them accountable, and we're seeing that the law favor taking place in our courts with the department of justice. again, when we look at these that are purchasing decisions by the department of defense. when we look at the promotion of the backs. uh, and the lives that were told in that, and you know, like you mentioned at the outset, we have to avoid some of these foreign entanglements. as george washington warned us about. we don't have to get involved in every country around the world. in george washington, our founders for so why such that don't get involved with these foreign countries. and we've got kind of an attitude in america of isolationism. we've got a balance that because the world's a big place, we want to sell stuff. we will have peace. yeah. but we don't be very careful, but i'm gonna, i'm gonna, i'm going to push you a little bit. you change the subject on me. i just ask you a question. there's times when we need government oversight and we need government regulation. would you not agree? i absolutely do, and it's on the big things, and the main thing is to preserve our borders,

to secure our country. that's one of the few things the constitution gives to the federal government and abdicating our responsibility. certainly on both counts right now. let me ask you, because before we run out of time you, you are one of the few americans who recently were able to go to russia and you witness the election that was going on there. and of course, we were told that it was all a phony baloney election, etc, etc. even though the numbers don't bear that out. there's also a big conversation going on right now about what's going on in ukraine and i don't know been, have you been reading the headlines? but things are not looking good for the ukrainian government, for the landscape, or for the, the, the, the, the, the country in general. so what, what is your take on that situation as it stands right now? very briefly, is the last day. you will no longer be a gentleman president in about a week his term of office and he has cancel elections. he's canceled independent media, he's cancelled opposition. political party, this is the democracy, were supposedly defending what i saw when i was observing the elections and mosque

out of last month, and back in september and in some of the non bass areas. i did not see the cnn invest in the city, the washington post the new york times. yet they're all reporting that these are sham elections. what, what i saw were fair and transparent elections. what i didn't say is any of the media, they are reporting, but by god they'll go right into gaza and the bed and report what have mazda, but they won't go tell the truth of what's happening in russia. we're just the worst on it. and in your price, you know, what's interesting, you mentioned something now about them cancelling elections in ukraine and i was just thinking of my own country's history and i happen to know and you can agree with me or correct me if i happen to be wrong. that in this country we don't cancel the elections. we didn't cancel. abraham lincoln had him election in the middle of the civil war. while he was still the president of the united states. we didn't cancel the elections during world war 2 or world war one. and yet we're now giving a $150000000000.00 to a country that says, we're not going to have to have an election while we say we're giving them money

because they are democracy somehow that doesn't seem right. it doesn't add up to we don't cancel elections, but we do have a system right now. this tried to cancel the top opponent to the administration and power. that's almost worse. yeah. yeah, i get your point. i disagree with you, but i get your point. thank you so much, dave. i appreciate your time. like so glad you came out. it's always great to have you on. that's our show. now remember, look outside your own box. literally look outside your own box truths. don't live in boxes. that's what we do here. we travel gotta have the boxes that breaks, and just we'll see you next time the, the world's largest democracy votes, the rest of the planet watches in an emerging multi polar world. india's voice matters. but who will be the power behind watches, almost 1000000000 people decide and billions for react

the attempted assassination. the slovak in prime minister is shot in broad daylight as he leaves the meeting. he's said to be in a life threatening condition. in the, in the immediate aftermath of the attack and despite no official word on potential motives, western media reports jump straight to the premier's links to russia and on the offensive russian forces taking another 2 villages and the hard top region as well as a frontline town and separate rosa as they continue to cement their recent battlefield gains the.
