ALEX JONES (HOST): I was getting some coffee and saw trade secretary on Fox, and he's like, hey, good news, we've beaten Iran, the rats are cornered, they're totally defeated. In four months, they'll be out of money from oil sales.

Well, that's kind of counting your chickens before their hatched, which I wish was true. I wish they'd have fallen the first day. No fan of the mullahs, but also no fan of the strait being closed and the documented shocks that would cause, sending up inflation and interest rates, which is now happening, which kills the Trump recovery plan, so America goes bankrupt and BlackRock wins. That's why people that just foolishly said, you just should get with the program and not demoralize our troops. 

Demoralize them? They're not stupid. The joint chiefs of staff told Trump not to do it. They fired the head of the army a few weeks ago when he said, we need a hundreds of thousands of troops to invade Iran, not 20,000. Trump does not like hearing that. And Trump does not know what he's talking about when it comes to military. He'll even admit that. I don't know how it works but they're incredible people. 

I've seen Levin all the time, goes, I'm not a military guy. I don't really understand it all, but I know that I believe in our troops. Lindsey Graham, all I know is I believe in the marines, and the host is like, two thousand marines are going to invade this heavily fortified area? We had a lot more down in Iwo Jima. Yeah, 110,000 for one island. He goes, ah. He goes, I believe in our marines. 

And now Trump's like, oh, yesterday they told me they're in a state of collapse.

Well, so was Vietnam when we dropped 7.6 million bombs on them. They've only dropped 20,000 on them.
