10:02 pm
australia in shock, with police still unsure of the motive behind the stabbing attack that killed six people in sydney. >> australians are waking up to try to deal with the shock and trauma that will come with what has occurred. and in sport, manchester city thrashing to go top after premier league with both of their top arrivals arsenal and liverpool playing today. hello, a very good morning and thank for joining us here on the breakfast show. our top story here this morning, iran's baros of drones and missiles launched toward israel overnight, it's iran's first direct attack on israeli territory. iran says the tach has
10:03 pm
concluded, israel remains on high alert. israel's admin systems along with british and american support product vast majority of any incoming threat before reaching is really territory. no one was killed. it was an unprecedented attack, retaliation for a suspected israeli strike in syria that killed two iranian generals. correspondent allison bungle begins our coverage. >> reporter: the is the iranian drones arrived just before 2:00 a.m. in the morning. these were intercept over jerusalem. the holy city was under attack, the skies above the light with the trails of israel's air defense system. the region had been on edge for dale's, but this was a bigger, far more dangerous retaliation than many expected. the u.s. government seemed to have warning the attack was
10:04 pm
coming, president biden cut short his weekend at a beach in delaware and flew back to the white house to be with his national security team. the israeli military warned people to stay close to bomb shelters as a nation braced. >> translator: dozens of unmanned aircraft were intercepted after the water of the state of israel, the number of threats launched over 200 pick the idf does and will do everything that is required to protect the security of the citizens of the state of israel. >> airspace was closed over jordan and iraq, flights in the air headed for tel aviv were turned back. the u.s. embassy told its staff to take shelter, and schools in israel have been ordered to close for the next two days. iran's mission tweeted to say that the matter was concluded and warned the u.s. not to get involved and israel not to retaliate.
10:05 pm
but given the scale of the attack, israel might feel it has no choice but to respond. >> the u.s. president joe biden says he will be convening g7 leaders to coordinate a diplomatic response to what he described as iran's brazen attack. in a statement, the president said earlier iran and its proxies operating out of yemen, syria, and iraq launched an unprecedented air attack against israel. i condemned these attacks in the strongest possible terms. i have spoken with prime minister netanyahu to reaffirm america's ironclad commitment to the security of israel. tomorrow i will convene my fellow g7 leaders to coordinate a united diplomatic response to iran's brazen attack. let's go live then to washington to speak to our u.s. correspondent, james matthews. james, the big question now is how israel might respond. what do we expect the message from the u.s. president to
10:06 pm
benjamin netanyahu to be now? >> i think it will be a message of restraint and there is a huge concern, there always has been and certainly the buildup to what we have seen in the past 24 hours, america was surprised initially by the israeli action that prompted all of this, the bombing of the iranian consulate in damascus. and americans have been working very closely with israel in terms of shaping the response to that. and i can tell you, having had contact with senior u.s. administration officials, there is concern that there will be an israeli overreaction to all of this. u.s. officials indicating here that they thought the bombing of that consulate in damascus was reckless, the united states wasn't told about that until the israeli planes were in the air on the way to that mission
10:07 pm
and the view in the united states, among senior officials was that that had the potential to be or to bring about a catastrophic escalation in conflict. so the americans, not at all happy with the way that unfolded and you will be aware that america's top general has been in israel over the past few days, helping to coordinate response and one imagines shipping that response in such a way that it didn't feed escalation, that the israeli reaction didn't feed escalation. that remains, of course, an open question, the israelis talking last night about a significant reaction to all of this. america will have an input. the question will be, to what extent can america influence how israel reacts given what we have seen over the past six
10:08 pm
months of conflict between israel and hamas, prime minister benjamin netanyahu in israel has turned a deaf ear to joe biden when it has susan him, acting with autonomy and in ignorance of the wishes of the united states. so that remains a concern that there will be a reaction to last night, that brings about an escalation, a widening in the theater of war which, of course, will bring all sorts of problems to the middle east itself and the people most directly affected. but it certainly could cause problems for joe biden in terms of managing conflict at a time when he faces his, a november election, which, the middle east conflict is causing him all sorts of domestic problems in relation to that. >> james, thanks very much indeed. the uk has moved several
10:09 pm
royal air force jets to the region after rishi sunak condemned iran for what he described as sewing chaos in its own backyard. let's bring in correspondent rob powell. so rocco what has the uk response been done? we we know rf jets were involved in the defense of israel overnight, that potentially was more in a support capacity. we also know from the the defense update overnight, the uk has decided to move more rf jets and refueling tankers to the region. saying these would intercept any airborne attacks that were in range of any uk missions in the region. so that is practically what is going on militarily. in terms of the language that is coming out from the uk overnight it is very much focused on condemning the iranian attack toward israel. but also urging de-escalation, as well. the prime minister, rishi sunak, released a statement overnight in which he said he condemned in the strongest terms the iranian regime's reckless attack, the strikes risk employment tensions and destabilizing the region.
10:10 pm
iran has once again and demonstrated its intent on sewing chaos in his own backyard. he said that the uk would stand by israel's security and all of its regional partners and is working to stabilize the situation to prevent escalation. those sentiments are echoed, as you would imagine, by lord cameron in the defense secretary, as well. keir starmer, the labor leader, as well, put out a message that was quite similar in tone saying international communities being united in urging restraint and we regret, yet again, iran has chosen a different dangerous path. the prime minister will clearly be involved in that g7 corps that joe biden announced would be taking place later today. the clear messages that the uk stand with israel against these attacks and will not hesitate to move military assets to back up those words. i think there will be, as james was saying this, there is deep concern about the prospect of this leading to something wider,
10:11 pm
behind the scenes you would imagine the uk would be using whatever leverage it has to try and urge de-escalation and to try and stop this turning into something more uncontrollable and more dangerous. >> okay, thanks very much indeed. let's turn now to our military allies, sean bell, who joins me now. good morning to you, sean. so israel is saying that more than 300 gentiles were fired by iran at israel, what do you make of the scale and the nature of this attack? >> good morning, and, i set up the edge of my seat last night in the early hours and wondering what would possibly unfold. the concern was that this morning we might wait to see a large number of casualties on the ground and civilian targets. in fact, israel claims they shot down 99 percent of over 300 drones and missiles. they admitted that little, that there was some damage at an idea base in southern israel but
10:12 pm
there were no deaths that were reported so far. the only casualty appears to be a 10-year-old girl that got caught by some shrapnel. not clear whether that was because of targeting or whether because when the 300 missiles being shot down there would have been a lot of damage on the ground. i think we from perspective, it has not been a devastating strike, it would've been bratch tear onto those on the ground but it does appear that most of the missiles and drones were down before they actually got into israel airspace. what is that all matter? because it feels very devastating attack. it matters because this was iran's effort to make a point. you know, they were clearly upset about the first of april attacks on their consulate in damascus with 13 people died, including a senior military commander. that concept was destroyed. i think it is interesting, we are all waiting to see what this response would be. the iranians made clear this is a one-off series of strikes they don't expect this to happen again unless israel
10:13 pm
responds, america was surprised at the first of april attacks and there is no restraint, as well. while it was a huge number of attacks last night, i think the proof in the pudding is the damage and the casualties on the ground. and thankfully, they were minimal last night. >> okay, sean, thanks very much indeed. so as we mentioned earlier, the raf joined the u.s. in supporting israel's defense. let's talk about this a little bit further. joining me from jerusalem is retired british army officer, richard kent. a very good morning to you, count ken, thanks so much for talking to us today. as i say, you are in jerusalem so i wonder if you can tell us what you witnessed overnight. >> yeah, it was very heavy series of missile intercepts overhead here in jerusalem. in the early hours. i have seen a great deal of missile attacks in israel since the seventh of
10:14 pm
october and indeed, in the years before that. this appeared to be a great deal heavy than anything that i have seen before both in terms of the number of intercepts that a relatively small area over in jerusalem but also the site of the explosion, which obviously suggests is much more than the standard rockets that hamas fires. we know there were potentially drones and ballistic missiles here. so and that scene, of course, is replicated outside. as sean says, quite rightly. fortunately, or not forcibly but due to very very effective air defenses, both behind israel and its ally, there was a relatively small amount of damage done in their deaths inside israel. >> well, yes, and as you say, ministry of defense said the raf jets were involved in the defense of israel along with
10:15 pm
u.s. warplanes. israel's military spokesman talking about few missiles reaching israel, little damage and no fatalities. you think that is what iran whatever intended here? just send a strong message and few casualties, what do you think it's intention was? i don't think that is what it is intention at all. i think i'm right in saying it is the largest drone attack ever in the world. 300 drones and ballistic and cruise missiles, i believe. you don't fire that kind of volume in order to make a statement, and if you do, that was not a statement that was taken credible, i don't think, for iran because it didn't actually succeed. it was defeated by israeli air defense. so it is actually, it is the opposite in perhaps what they would like to do. i think they intended to cause significant damage and they certainly could've caused very significant damage in israel with that number of missiles
10:16 pm
fired. what they, what their objective is, of course, is the destruction of israel. obviously this attempt was not going to achieve that. they built what they describe as boxes all around israel in order to attack israel and the proxies to attack last night, just as well as the ongoing attacks from proxies and hamas, gaza, as well as proxies in the west bank. and they, their clear objective is to delegitimize israel, to undermine israel, to ultimately wipe out israel. and so this is part of that overall intention. >> so what you expect israel to do next? this is an unprecedented attack on its soil from iran, so will we see a retaliation? >> i think we have to, i think israel must retaliate. no country would have 300 missiles fired at it and be expected to take it on the chin.
10:17 pm
israel has to reach out and in my view israel has to retaliate very very strongly. i don't think we should be talking about a proportionate response now i think what iran needs is a punishing attack, as it promised against israel in order to prevent it doing it again. and let's not forget, except that sounds very kind of war mongering but the nature of war, it is not a game, not a ping-pong ball across the net, you have to one side or the other has to prevail and you can only prevail by superior military force. but let's not forget that iran is on the cusp of having a nuclear weapons. now it has demonstrated, in addition to its regional aggression, it has demonstrated it is willing to fire missiles at israel then once it gets a nuclear weapon, you got to assume it will fire nuclear weapons which will be absolute devastating thing. so a very strong israeli response is what i would expect. and i think it's merit is in
10:18 pm
the situation, as well. >> okay, well, colonel richard, we appreciate your thoughts this morning and the response to the overnight attack by iran on israel, thanks very much indeed. and plenty more on the store in a moment but first let's take a quick look at the weather. the end of the week and will be considerably cooler as a brisk northwesterly replaces a mild southwesterly flow. however, temperatures will be close to average values for april. it will be a mostly dry start to the day for some parts of england and wales. lester showers in the northwest become more widespread through the morning. some of the showers will be heavy, potentially turning wintry over the higher ground of the north. the temperatures will only reach 11 to 14 degrees celsius for most. values are unlikely to exceed 15 even in the warmer, brighter spots.

10:30 pm
10:31 pm
welcome back to the breakfast show. coming up in just a moment i'll be joined by jasmine l damar, the middle east adviser at the u.s. department of defense. after iran launched a barrage of missiles and drones at israel we will have reaction from her plus we have jackie coming up shortly in the news review with ryan save the and jenna 40 this morning. but first let's return to australia which is still reeling from the shock of a violent mass stabbing at a shopping center in sydney's bond i'd thanks and yesterday police have now confirmed the man who fatally attacked six victims and injured many others had mental health issues they say they have no information on specific motive but let's get the latest from adam hancock
10:32 pm
who can join us now live from sydney. a very good morning to you, adam. thanks for talking to us. give us an update, how much do we now know about how the, those injured are doing? but also about the attack himself. >> yes, the number of information shared by particular about the attacker, a 40-year-old man called joel county, he is from queensland, which is a neighboring state in new south wales. police say he only moved to sydney around a month ago, he was renting a small storage unit which has been searched by the police today. and correctly, based on their investigation so far, do not believe there is any kind of ideology motive behind this attack. instead, there keeping a fairly open mind, they're focusing more on mental health issues with relation to this attacker. now we have had some information, as well, on the victims of this horrific attack one of them is a 38-year-old mother called ash good and she
10:33 pm
was actually the mother of the nine month old baby that was stabbed here yesterday. the baby remains in hospital and the statement from ashford's family, saying that they are reeling from a terrible loss of ashley, beautiful mother, daughter, sister, partner, friend, and an all-around outstanding human. they did say that the baby is likely doing well despite being in the hospital and undergoing hours of surgery. here at the scene today, it is much busier than it was yesterday evening. there is a growing number of tributes just in front, people leaving flowers and australian prime minister, visited the thing today as to the new south wales premier, both giving speeches, talking about the shock faced not only by the local community here but also by australians as a whole, as well. and actually the new south wales , family holiday in japan when this news broke yesterday, i had to get back on a plane and return to sydney, the shopping center behind me, it remains closed today, a number of
10:34 pm
police vehicles are still here, investigations ongoing as they try to find the motive behind this attack >> adam hancock, thanks very much indeed for that update. we appreciate it, thank you. now let's go back to our top story now and iran launching a bars of drones and missiles toward israel overnight. is iran's first direct attack on israeli territory. while iran says the attack has concluded, israel remains on high alert. let's go out to jasmine l damar who is the former u.s. adviser at the u.s. department of defense as she joins me from jordan. very good morning to you, thanks so much for talking to us today. iran had warned that it would retaliate after the attack on its consulate in damascus and syria. what do you make of the nature and the scale of the attack that we saw overnight? >> well, obviously the scale of
10:35 pm
the attack and the nature of the attack was meant to be more of a warning of iran's capabilities than an actual attempt at escalating the situation into an all-out war. as we all heard, there was some deconfliction, some messages passed back and forth behind the scenes in the lead up to the attack between iran and the u.s. through arab intermediaries in the region. basically reiterating that the u.s. did not want to see an all- out war in the region and neither did iran. however, iran had to retaliate basically for the attack against its consulate in syria, otherwise it would completely lose face, not just in front of its adversaries like israel but also in front of its own proxies like hezbollah, hamas, and the houthis who have been conducting their own attacks against israel in recent months in retaliation, or in response to its attacks and its operations in gaza. so i can say that the message that iran wanted to send was
10:36 pm
just that, a message, these missiles, these projectiles, most of them about over 90% of them, according to the israelis, were intercepted before they entered israeli airspace. intercepted by israel and its allies in the region, including georgia, where i am right now. which, of course, highlights the importance of is really cooperation and relationships with arab countries in the region. >> the big question now, of course, is what happens next? this is the first time that iran has attacked israel directly from its own soil. so how will israel, do you think, respond, will there be a retaliation? >> that is exactly right. that is a great question and the , you know the real issue is that basically for the past five months now, in large part, mostly because of the war in gaza, there have been escalations. the part of many different actors in the middle east and so the most important
10:37 pm
thing to do right now is to de- escalate tensions and tried not to make things go even further than they already have. and that was president biden's goal in his phone call with prime minister netanyahu he said we are not going to support , we being the u.s., of course, we are not going to support an offense of strike by israel against iran. he said to prime minister netanyahu, this is a win, take the win, do not escalate the u.s. will not be involved in an attack against iran, and offensive attack. israel, on its part, has requested an emergency meeting of the united nations security council to talk about the iranian attack and so that is where we are right now. basically with countries both in the region having helped israel and intercept these missiles and projectiles and the president asking netanyahu to step down. we see a large attempt at turning down the temperatures
10:38 pm
and making sure things don't escalate any further because yesterday was, quite rightly, incredibly worrying for everybody in the region but also of course, outside. >> efforts to de-escalate or certainly that is the message from many of israel's allies, however, how dangerous moment do you think this is for the region? >> incredibly dangerous. this is something that i have been saying for months now, this is just the latest in a series of back and forth, for tat responses and counter responses by actors in the region. i mean, it is important to note here that this iranian attack against israel was in direct retaliation to israel assassinating and iranian commander and attacking and iranian consulate in syria, iranian proxies have been attacking both israel and and u.s. interests and personnel in the region in response to israeli operations and gaza, which, of course, were a result
10:39 pm
, a counter attack to october 7th. so we are seeing a lot of these moves and counter moves in the region. of course, the dangerous part here is it is not just these planned moves but a risk of a miscalculation that could set the region on fire which is why it is so incredibly important now to turn down the temperature, step back a bit, take stock of the situation and most importantly, figure out a political pathway forward to end the conflict in gaza to address iranian activities in the region and to address israel's role in the region, as well. the political pathway here is the key. >> okay, jasmine el-gamal, really interesting to get your thoughts this morning. we do appreciate it, thanks so much. of course we're going to have 20 more coverage of this iranian attack on israel throughout the morning. but in the meantime, jackie is
10:40 pm
here. we got sports news going on, as well. fill us in on what has been happening. >> look at my relief watching at the masters, tiger woods, i think his mind is really willing but his body just lets him down and he hasn't played enough golf, worst ever round for him. must've been just a horrible feeling. anyway, let's have a look at the action from last night. the sky news sports bulletin is brought to you by vitality. live life with vitality. >> i want to know how sustainable you are because you're only 36, you have only been out for a year and a bit. are you potentially on the driver market for next season? >> potentially i am because i haven't got a drive but the question is am i looking for one? i think it depends on the package. i retired from a formula one not to come back but also did say that so -- i think it still
10:41 pm
stands, obviously the distinct things that i missed. and things that i don't miss. so yeah, that has not changed. obviously everything is different if you are not. >> the aspect of never coming back because the conditions might've you a better opportunity then maybe in the next year. are you mindful of that? >> fisher the thought crossed my mind. obviously i retired not to come back to retire. nothing in this regard has changed. but you never know, obviously a lot of things starting to move and now the potential of max, i don't know, maybe pulling off a surprise. so i don't know if your circumstance starts to happen or starts to open up, starts to open up to consider, for sure.
10:42 pm
>> i know you've had some conversations, if that would save your seat was offered to you, how hard would it be? >> i had conversations with him, not really about the seat, we did speak about the whole situation in short, as well. but that would speak to others, as well. i am still keeping in touch every now and then i have some projects and ideas together with f1. we will see if they will turn out or not. but yeah, i am's being in touch , i don't know if we had a couple more phone calls and conversations. find out a little bit more. but for sure it is one of the best bits or seats on the grid. i think performance was, a great track record. but still second or third. you know, in the race against norman. the prepare to leave the car,
10:43 pm
even though you had the contract. going to ferrari, what sort of fit my tv at that team? he is a big individual. we know this very much about the team, ferrari >> i think it's about the team everywhere you go. obviously each to their own but i think it is a team sport and i think someone like lewis has said that over and over again. thanking the team around him. i think obviously this career would have been very different, mind you. but that is how it goes. no regrets. but yeah, i think time will tell. i think if he is excited, that is the main thing. it is obviously his decision. so best of luck and i know the team in ferrari and yeah, obviously, for us or for the outside, and the measure is always whether you are successful, the real measure, i
10:44 pm
think is whether lewis is happy or not. >> at this point in her ferrari's history, do you sense if the team is quite well set, seems to be less politics of that team and maybe even when you were there, some of the predecessors were there. >> i was part of the team for a while now so i can't give you too much insight or details but it is a very special environment. i think you will enjoy the experience and obviously things crossed for him to have a better package and it would be nice to see him thrive of it. >> you are driver who would speak out, lewis hamilton was another. the two of you had a good ally ship. you think he has been left a little bit on his own now that you are no longer in f1 would you like to see some more of the drivers get involved? >> yeah, absolutely because i think hands up first one to admit that i underestimated the, i don't want to say power, but the potential to reach people and if you have something really, that you know that is
10:45 pm
important to you and feels like important to yourself but many people out there. then i think it's important to speak up and to share your story and your opinion and not to shy away from it. so it would be nice if you were to see more of what makes other drivers really move them, concerns them. because there is also, we are all humans and we are all living on the same planet so we have probably, partly the same things to get to us. and it just shows a little bit more humanity. it is the perfect impression you get. but it is not like that, we are all human, we all have problems, we'll have doubts and yeah, it is important to address these things and speak up to set the right example or to inspire young people to break the ice, as well. >> one of your former teams has a big controversy around them.
10:46 pm
i'm talking about red bull, they are under investigation. the allegations dismissed against them, my question to you is, are the leadership in formula one, the fia, formula one, have they done enough in this matter? should they have become involved in this? you talked about a lack of transparency. still to come here on the breakfast show we are going to be discussing the morning papers, here with me today is ryan sebi and gemma forte and some of them have done a very quick swap, haven't they? they put the iran attack on their front pages. will be discussing that on to some of the other front pages in a moment. nt enough. what are you looking at huh... it's a one speed. hahaha.
10:47 pm

10:50 pm
forte, was a broadcaster and writer. good morning to both it comes to the papers is an interesting one because we have the worst additions with no mention, of course, of iron's attack of visual overnight but very swiftly the second edition is already coming in at a couple of them have completely changed their front pages. take us off with the son, which has done just that. it has put this attack on its front pages. >> totally, earlier addition, the first edition was a showbiz story but obviously this happened at 10:00 or 11:00 at night. reduction staff working through the night to get the front pages and several of them have changed to this story. it happened late at night and they are reporting the fact that those drones and the missile attack from iran has come a lot of them were intercepted, 99% of the israelis say they were intercepted. in rishi sunak saying that the attack was reckless so yeah,
10:51 pm
you got the situation where the sunday papers have been working on wake-up stories and they have got to literally rip up their front pages and move everything about to get the news out to people for the morning. >> so yeah, whoever wrote that exclusive for the sun on sunday will be cursing that they are on the front page, the newspapers point of view. but take us to the sunday telegraph because this is a local paper whose main story has changed and they come again, have put this attack on their front page, have a day? missile then kamikaze drones at israel. and you have heard that rishi sunak has condemned iran's attack. the question now is what happens next? >> it is indeed, and actually, of course this is going to dominate the news agenda. sort of makes every thing else pale into insignificance. it is one of those days where you come and have a chat about the papers from you get up bleary-eyed for the moment and multiple three is trending on twitter. and there is a huge amount of
10:52 pm
alarm over the situation that we have sort of seen escalate and in a way this is probably rather predictable because i think to an extent iran and this instance will be betrayed as the pure aggressor because israel have bombed their consulate in syria and that device part of the vienna convention, for instance. as far back as the 26th of january which is when the international court of justice declared that israel were breaking international law, they ordered immediate and effective measures to enable the provision of aid and there were many many moment where many of us have looked at the way that netanyahu's government is just doing whatever they want. there is a famine raking out, aid workers being killed, 15,000 children dead, estimates of 35,000 people just obliterated.
10:53 pm
and yet the western leaders just seem to say we support you no matter what, that doesn't seem to be, you can do whatever you want without impunity and so is it any surprise that this has escalated in a way? is it really, was it really that unpredictable. i think not. >> and yet we have had, as you say, contemplation from rishi sunak and from joe biden, iran's attack we were told that there is an urging of restraint behind the scenes on the israeli government about what they do next, ryan. and interesting to see whether or not those calls are heated or not because this was 300 projectiles fired from iranian to israelis. that is the first time that has happened. the question is whether israel will feel it has to respond. >> exactly, i think one of the interesting things happened in the last few hours is that iran has put out a statement of sorts saying that the moment has concluded what has happened there. their attack has concluded.
10:54 pm
now what does israel do in response? they will be having discussions with their allies, we will be talking to america, will be talking to hamas about what they do. and also interesting today that the g7 leaders will be talking by phone to discuss how they approach the next hours and coming days. exactly, does look dangerous. but we are looking to calm tensions and joe biden saying will be part of this in helping israel. but they will drag us into this war. >> yeah, okay. please this is perhaps a question over how many wars is israel fighting simultaneously. we still don't know why they bombed the consulate in syria, as well. >> and it is something they have not admitted to but the assumption it was obviously their work and the questions, the implications are for the ongoing situation in gaza, as well. lots that will be discussed at
10:55 pm
length over the next few days. but ryan, take us to the front page of the observer which has a photograph there in the aftermath of the attack on the bond i shopping center in sydney and really horrific story, we are reporting on this today. >> horrendous story, six people were killed and several injured as a man went on a stabbing spree in sydney just a few miles or so from bond i beach where you have seen the pictures. the pictures of people on holiday enjoying themselves. horrendous story of a mom who died, her baby survived, is in hospital, receiving care. it was this police officer, a police officer who went through the shopping center and actually chased down this guy who carried out this attack. and australian prime minister called the police officer a hero.
10:56 pm
but it seems like this incident wasn't terrorized. it seems like there were mental health issues. and it rings up questions again, we had these in nottingham not that long ago where do the authorities, whether it is the police, social services, healthcare, are they having this joined response, joined inking to make sure that these people are being looked after and actually make sure that they aren't allowed to carry out such. >> some the questions being answered. as you say, that is the police officer, being held as a hero, isn't she? from preventing it being worse than it was. we have literally 30 seconds, gemma, but tell us what the front pages and we can go to more detail the next hour, just to get some political stories. >> there is a far left plot the hijack labor. i think that is a bit ridiculous. this is the angela reyna story where she may or may not have, we don't even know, can't even really explain it in a
10:57 pm
