[closing bell rings] look to end the dow up 194, s&p up 26, nasdaq up 50. second positive day in a row positive for all three indices. vivek ramaswamy on the "countdown" tuesday. larry: welcome to "kudlow," i'm larry kudlow. prime minister netanyahu will take unprecedented to clean out the barbaric hamas militants.

we'll spend our show's hour with guests from jerusalem, southern israel, capitol hill and washington, d.c., but first up, president biden has said, i quote, the u.s. stands with israel. we will not ever fail to have their back. my administration's support for israel's security is rock solid and unwavering, enquote this is all for the good in israel's great hour of need, all for the good by biden. the worst military terrorist attack since the yom kippur war 50 years ago, staggering death count and hostage-taking that includes by the way american hostages taken and americans killed on the ground, hamas barbarism is beyond belief. the administration is briefing congress providing israel with missiles and artillery to patch up the iron dome and provide air to ground precision bombing and so forth but, but, but, but, this is the same president who for two years wouldn't meet with

israel's prime minister benjamin netanyahu, the leader of our closest ally in the world. this is the same president biden who has been angling for a nuclear deal with iran for nearly three years. this is the same president who cut and ran out of afghanistan. the same president left $100 billion at the bagram air force base, weapons quite possibly purchased by hamas on the black market for use in the gaza invasion. this is the same president who negotiated a hostage swap and unfroze $6 billion for iran. money is fungible or doesn't the white house understand that? this is the same iran strategizing and funding with hamas and hezbollah. this is the same iran joining russia and china in the modern axis of evil. so the question is, when will the united states punish iran? incredibly the biden administration is also

reportedly involved in an iranian spy scandal they're trying to cover up. now suspended former iran enjoy robert mali reportedly brought in iranian spies into the u.s. government. first at the state department and now the pentagon, a woman named tabata, the chief of staff to assistant special operations christopher mayer. this is part of a schweid spread iranian spy ring in the u.s. and the state department will still tell us not why mali was suspended. indeed the state department will not comment on any of these reports from highly credible journalists including "the wall street journal." let's remember, former president donald trump took out ace ice leader al-baghdadi. he also took out soleimani the top bad guy iran. and trump pulled the plug on

useless iranian nuke negotiations and there were no hamas invasions of israel. think about that. president joe biden has yet to address the nation to lay out all of the american plans to defend our great ally, israel. but former house speaker kevin mccarthy gave a blockbuster speech on the floor of the house in support of israel, the kind of speech biden should have given. the house needs speaker to beef up israeli defense funds, i suggest kevin mccarthy who should never have been brought down in the first place. mccarthy is demonstrating something called leadership. think about that, republicans, think about that everybody else. that's my riff tonight. let's go right into the show. joining me now is former u.s. ambassador to israel mr. david friedman. david, well come back, this is a difficult time. just tell us why do you think, why do you think you were involved in all of these

negotiations with israel and the middle east and the abraham accords, why has this terrible hamas invasion happened? >> it is a few reasons. they're all regrettable and avoidable. i think we have to start with iran. you pointed your finger on it earlier. iran is the head of the snake. this attack would not have been possible without funding, planning, assistance, choreography all those things by the islamic republic of iran. as we appease them, as we lift sanctions on them, as we enrich them, look atnumber of barrel per days iran is selling today versus a year, two years ago, they have a massive increase. they are a lot richer with a lot of money to burn and spending it on their proxies which hamas is the most violent and ruthless closest to israel. so you have got to start with that. you know, at the same time that

"wall street journal" did some good reporting on this, at the same time that we were, america was negotiating were iran for a prisoner swap we unfroze $6 billion of cash, at the very same time iran is working with hamas to plan this annihilation of the jewish people. an attack on jews, the likes of which we have not seen since the holocaust. women being pulled out of their homes and raped, and babies being killed and taken for hostage. old women, holocaust survivor, a woman who was holocaust survivor, taken out of her home, put in a truck, taken over the border as a hostage. she never thought she would have to relive these days. that is what we're going through today. iran is the beginning, the head of the snake. we also restored funding to the palestinian authority which gives, which gives incentives and stipends for terrorists to kill jewish people. we refunded unrwa, teaches all

those in gaza to hate. they put on plays where half the kids dress up as terrorists half the kids dress up as jews and the kids kill the jews and parents applaud. the most regrettable thing we did way we handled negotiations with israel and saudi arabia. at the end of the day iran wants to destroy the potentialnal normalization between israel and saudi arabia. by creating a war between palestinians and israelis they put that on hold. why is this happening at all? when we did the "abraham accords," when people found out about israel's normalization with the u.a.e., the day they found out about it the day president trump announced it on television. on that day there weren't 10 people in the world knew it was happening. what is happening here? they're advertising it. they're talking about it in, as if it is a done deal. they're including the palestinians at the table. let them know what is going on.

so the palestinians are, are not getting what they want. they feel aggrieved. they want to show they're relevant, want to the tack and iran is only too happy to give them resources and incentives to do that in order to kill any chance of saudi israel normalization. this was a positived process that didn't have to end this way. could have been done secretly and discretely the way we did the "abraham accords." those continue to survive and prosper. larry: ambassador david friedman, stay on the saudi topic for just a moment. what role will the saudis play? they haven't said much about the invasion so far. they haven't said there is going to be any kind of oil embargo like there was back in 1973 and 1974 when they were basically at war with the u.s. what is your expectation? will the saudis be neutral in the battle, side with iran and

hamas or try at least under the table to stay friendly with israel? >> look i think the saudis understand the mentality of hamas. it's the same muslim brotherhood, radical islamic factions that threaten saudi, threaten u.a.e., threaten bahrain, threaten morocco. it is the same enmy. i don't think they will embrace hamas or boycott the west and increase prices. the street they may say things unfavorable or unhelpful but at the end of the day the saudis i want to move toward modernaty. these are not their friends, anymore than friends of israel. larry: ambassador david friedman, from israel. stay safe as best as you can. much more, we have bret develop low very much former intel

operations. we appreciate it. israel's gameplan on the ground with respect to taking back hamas, knocking them out once and for all, what are you thinking, brett? >> i'm thinking they have already started. they have launched a wave of airstrikes and attacks on gaza. there was formal declaration of war issued. that is important to give leaders latitude to conduct major operations. israel carried out major campaigns in gaza that appeared as wars but these were without formal declaration. what this does gives the green light to israel to take military steps against hamas. no doubt hamas will pay the price. benjamin netanyahu ordered mobilization of 100,000 israeli ground forces. that is imminent. they have to respond disproportionately, they have to respond over the top. this military operation has to restore deterrents.

they have to hammer hamas, re-establish that deterrence and unfortunately this will be a very bloody battle get there. israel will do what they have to do. defeat hamas once and for all, not pressure them to reduce forces we usually do few days after them going into gaza. they have been holding for years on full-scale invasion. they don't have a choice. this is what happens without the deterrence. they will have to go in very heavy with a swift response. americans have to get behind them and space and support doing this without condemning these next actions. larry: brett, as part of a sweep through gaza, can israeli defense forces, just among other things, take out the tunnel system hamas has built over the years i'm sure they're using right now? >> i think it is extremely difficult to do that. that is how they have operated for so long, how they have gotten away with a lot of this. hamas has taken a number of

hostages as well, sort of as insurance policy against the retaliatory actions on israelis. i think that will backfire of the israelis don't negotiate with terrorists. hostages i don't think will be used for bargaining chips even though hamas thinks so. we have to push these israelis to do peace through strength. that is the only thing that works in this region. why we sort of adopted our policy not negotiating with terrorists this is a region that only understands strength. military they have it going with the mindset. frankly it will get much worse in the coming days with number of airstrikes. larry: forces coming on the ground, israeli forces coming on the ground, will that begin today, tomorrow, how do you read that story? they're calling up reserves, hundreds of thousands of people, brett. when do they actually come on the ground and invade? >> i think it is tough to tell. we'll probably see it when it happens. they will not necessarily reveal that, those, that operational information. i think what we're seeing in the

region is showing that movement is imminent. i think frankly we need to remind ourselves that we can't let our guard down in america against terrorism. we can also be taken by surprise at any moment to those who wish us harm. this was intelligence failure at its core. i don't know how no one saw this. i don't know how western intelligence agencies would thought this attack would occur in israel. they got overconfident. i think this may be the same process when it comes to al qaeda. we need not to be let our guard down on terrorism and support the israelis as much as we can. larry: brett develop velicovich, thank you. house is sponsoring a resolution to back and fund israel. congressman french hill will join us to talk about. how are we using special forces to go in gaza and get hostages?

we'll talk to former negotiator, national security advisor robert o'brien. all that when "kudlow" returns. ♪. the biggest ideas inspire new ones. 30 years ago, state street created an etf that inspired the world to invest differently. it still does. what can you do with spy? ♪ teeth sensitivity is so common. it immediately feels like somebody's poking directly on the nerve. i recommend sensodyne. sensodyne toothpaste goes inside the tooth and calms the nerve down. and my patients say you know doc, it really works. it's not just designed to look good... it's built to command attention. it's not just a comfortable interior...

defenses. joining us to talk about it arkansas congressman french hill, member of the house foreign affairs committee as well as the financial institutions. french, this is a tough time. first of all, we have buy mast coming on the resolution. you're a money guy, french hill. will the money be there? do you need a speaker in order to appropriate additional funds for weapons, for ammunition, to help the defense dome in israel? tell us about that, please. >> lair are, it is good to be back on. first and i want to importantly say the house under kevin mccarthy's leadership passed a state and foreign operations bill and a defense appropriations bill, both those bills contain significant money that benefits our defense partnership and strategic partnership with israel, $3.3 billion in foreign military assistance financing, $500 million for the u.s.-israel

defense cooperation agreement. so there is existing money that we've passed in the house and if the senate could take those bills up that would promptly fund that in this fiscal year of 2024. in addition to the good policies that we have in the national defense authorization bill which we also passed in the house and sent over to the senate which includes making sure we have a special envoy for the "abraham accords" and that we continue to lead as israel's primary ally and partner in the region. larry: what's the senate waiting for, french? >> well they're in recess this week. i know this is important to them. we hope to get to conference on both the defense authorization bill and these spending bills asap. those are things they could be doing right now while the house republicans elect a new speaker. i do support this idea of a bipartisan resolution that shows our firm resolution with our ally israel on the house floor and make it the very first thing we do once we have a new speaker elected. larry: do you need, will israel

need a larger appropriations? can you amend the existing bills that went through? do you have to open up a new bill? how do you think that's going to work, french hill? >> i think our appropriators will look what we've approved in the foreign ops and defense appropriation bill and talk to the administration, if they feel like they need any supplemental number that would benefit the defense of israel to defeat this terror invasion of their country. larry: has the administration been in touch with all of you on these subjects yet? >> there's going to be an intelligence briefing tomorrow and and another one on wednesday and i think we'll shortly hear from the administration once they fully assess what they think they need to provide israel in the right way to not only support their defense but eviction of the terror units active from gaza. larry: great report, french hill. thank you ever so much. >> thank you, larry. larry: joining me now, robert o'brien, my dear friend, former national security advisor,

importantly for this story a former hostage negotiator. robert, what can be done? now israeli hostages, gosh, american hostages, fewer but they are american hostages and we have to help them. you have vast experience here. i don't think people understand the ways and means that could be undertaken to help this story. can you help us out, robert? >> sure, larry and the first thing which need to do is go to the iranians who according to the "wall street journal" i have no reason to doubt "the wall street journal"'s reporting, this whole operation against israel was green-lighted by the irgc and the quds force. the arms of the iranian regime which they use it to foment terrorism in the region. we we need to go to the iranians through third party or directly these are american citizens.

they shouldn't involve american citizens. that we don't take kindly to our citizens being killed which they have done already and don't take kindly our citizens taken hostage. that is the first step that needs to be taken, larry. larry: waiting for irrather than ran help is one thing. what can americans do when we don't get iranian help? >> the first thing we can do, refreeze the $6 billion paid for the last group of american hostages. like the hostages taken this time, these were dual citizens. they were iranian americans. we have now israeli americans being held. we don't care if they're dual citizens or not. they're americans. we want them home. we ought to refreeze that money and tell the qataris not to give it to them. put maximum pressure owner rainians. tell them the iranian regime we'll be held personally responsible for the citizens being held by their proxy hamas. we have to get stuff with the iranians. you know the problem playing

ransom. i am glad the americans are coming hope. i tried to get them home. we got a number about people home from iran with three hostages during our time in office but when you pay that kind of money, call it unfreezing assets, call it a gift, call it whatever you want but it is ransom. when you pay a billion two per person, number one create a new market for hostage-taking but number two, you will create a fund so they can use that money for future terrorism operations. i didn't think we would see both points vividly illustrated as quickly as we see here. larry: money is functionable. money is fungible. books can be kept, rekept, everybody knows that except the biden white house. robert, one other thing. >> i don't think they teach accounting at yale law school. larry: yale law school. never mind where i went. special ops for hostage-taking, can you tell us something about that because i don't think we'll

get any help from iran, not now, not not future? do we have special, do we have special operations to go after hostages? >> well we have exquisite capability, larry. i don't want to get into those details right now. the moment american hostages are taken captive the first call goes to the joint special praises command in fort bragg. my guess they're aprizeed of this. they're working on it. i don't want to get into those capabilities but i tell you we have tremendous capabilities. when i was the hostage envoy, first thing i did i changed memo that described our office. that memo said americans will always use diplomacy first and military rescue operations second. i said our first option is military rescue and then we'll go engage in diplomacy. hopefully that is still the policy of the government but we're going to make sure that, those americans are taken care of and hopefully our men and win in uniform are working that problem right now. larry: all right. so last 40 seconds, here is --

you stalked about iran, okay. when will we, the u.s. government, inflict some damage on iran which is the financeer and the strategist and the backbone of all these terrorist groups, hamas, hezbollah, islamic jihad, working working h russia and china, robert o'brien, when will we inflict damage on iran? >> my guess if the hostages are hurt that will happen. under president trump we had maximum pressure on iran and it kept them at bay. you know, i never thought i would say, larry we look back on carter years as the good ol' days, jimmy carter after seeing russians in nicaragua, angola, mozambique. carter said i was wrong about the russians. he changed policies. he was humble enough to say start rebuilding the military. reagan defense bill that started

under harold brown in the last year of the carter administration. we need the biden administration to have humility. we got it wrong. we tried to appease iran. we gave them billions of dollars, gave them sanction relief and treated them well and poked us in the eye with the response. time to take rough time with iran. that is bipartisan, non-partisan, we need to protech ourselves keep the country safe from these guys. larry: we appreciate it, robert o'brien. appreciate it very much, take care. coming up on "kudlow," she wants to agree with mr. o'brien, undo the six billion dollar hostage swap, maybe inflict damage on iran period. we have john ratcliffe. whatever happened to the intel failures? this is a bad story, both from israel and the united states? nobody seemed to see this one coming. congressman brian mast will tell us about his bipartisan bill to defund hamas, maybe inflict damage on iran. i'm "kudlow." we'll be right back.

♪. larry: all right, welcome back, joining us now tennessee senator marsha blackburn. senator blackburn, welcome, ma'am. take a listen, please, national security advisor jake sullivan said this 10 days ago. take a listen, please. >> what we said is we want to depressurize, de-escalate and ultimately integrate the middle east region. the war in yemen in its the 19-month truce. for now the iran attacks against u.s. forces have stopped. our presence in iraq is stable. i emphasize for now, all of that can change. the middle east region is quieter today than it has been in two decades. larry: so, senator blackburn, quieter today than two decades, then bang. now there is an intelligence break down but we've been playing footsie with iran and the exchange and six billion dollars, what are you thinking here with this crisis? >> they should know that you cannot appease and try to

negotiate with terrorists. what they understand is strength and under donald trump they knew that they would not get by with this. he cut the funding to palestine. he got out of the iran nuclear deal. they knew that donald trump knew who was our adversary and treated them as such and knew who was our ally and our allies knew that they were our friends. they could depend on us and for jake sullivan to say that the middle east is more stable, when you look at what happened in afghanistan and what is happening there every day, when you look at the new axis of evil with russia, china, north korea. look at drones they are building with china. by the way iran is financing that. look at uranium enrichment that is happening in iran. iran making all of this money

selling oil because the united states has decided they want to be dependent on others and not be energy independent. larry, it is just foolhardy to think that you have an area that is so volatile that you say is more stable now and you see how quickly this has eroded and how iran has been instrumental in playing a role in coaching and directing and giving the green light to hamas to carry this out and then the ayatollah says this is a part of their plan to destroy israel. this is not knowing how toe read the signs in the region and not paying attention to alliances and people that we're beginning to work together all against us

and our allies. larry: senator blackburn, 100% on all counts. i'm own a tight leash today, i just want to add one thing you mentioned trump. trump took out al-baghdadi, trump took ought soleimani. trump sent signals to the mullahs. funny in the middle east those signals seem to matter. i just wanted to raise that point in support of your appeasement never works. >> you're right about that, yes. larry: appeasement never works. senator, we'll revisit. i'm on a short leash tonight. thank you ever so much for coming on the show you. >> got it. thank you. larry: moving right along as we must, joining us john ratcliffe, former director of national intelligence, former prosecutor. john, the intel breakdown, a lot of people are talking about that. nobody saw this coming the planning was in august. what can you tell us, what are you thinking? >> well, clearly there was an intelligence failure.

both by both by israel and by the united states. both governments have admitted you know an element of surprise to all of that. you know i think you know, one of the things may contribute to that is the fact as you have talked about, larry, the united states and israel for the first time there has been daylight between our countries because of the approach that this administration has taken in courting iran, in begging iran, pleading with iran, enriching iran and you know, that has filtered down into the relationship between our intelligence communities and you know, i hope that hasn't contributed to you know, a lack of sharing important intelligence but it's very clearly something that is in play. larry: we keep playing footsie with iran. i mean, i, the bidens are saying what they're saying. they're backing israel now. i wish i had more confidence in that declaration. we'll shall see in the days and weeks ahead but you keep playing

footsie with iran. john, let me ask you something, a lot of reports reputable journalists, this guy, malley, robert malley was special envoy to iran. he was suspended from his post. there is talk about a spy ring, iranian sympathizers, iriranian trained people in the defense deem. do you anything about this story? they won't do you know why he is suspended? they won't ever say. >> we don't have to speculate on this, larry, there is evidence a chief of staff to assistant secretary of defense was ghost writing op-eds for the iranian foreign minister. you know, you know, the fact that iran had a voice within the biden administration and biden policies to iran is really irrefutable and that's where the biden administration is just really, they put themselves in this box, larry. you and i had how. discussions over the last few years to your point playing

footsie, this was dangerous policies that they were taking towards iran. they were trusting iran. and that would backfire and very clearly that is playing out. their trust was misplaced and and now they're doing this mental gymnastics to really even try and minimize iran's role by saying well, we gave them six billion dollars but that really didn't come into play here. in fact we don't have any direct intelligence that iran is even involved here. so they're making excuses because they know they have contributed to what is taking place in israel. larry: john, if you were back in the administration, in a position of authority, how best to inflict some damage on iran which stands behind hamas, which stands behind hezbollah, which is in bed with china and russia as you know? they are the mastermind of all of the terrorism and malicious and barbaric attack on israel. how to inflict some damage on iran? >> well, i think what iran, you

know, has done here, is, they have created, if you will a window of opportunity that everyone should take advantage of. they have demonstrated while they were negotiating to get $6 billion back with the biden administration, at the very same time they were involved in the operational planning to take more american hostages, an operation to kill more americans and these israelis. they can't be trusted and they can't be trusted. that reflects they shouldn't be trusted to be a member of a nuclear club ever. i think there is justification here, larry, for both israel and the united states to take appropriate responses to make sure irannian nuclear facilities and personnel that would contribute to them becoming a member of the, having a nuclear weapon, that they not be permitted to do so and i think an international coalition around that fact can be built and i don't think that allies of iran like russia and china given

the backdrop of what's happening will really be in a position to object or to help. larry: john ratcliffe as always. i'm running a short leash today, but thank you for your contribution, thanks very much for weighing in. we appreciate it. all right, folks moving right along, joining us right now florida congressman brian mast from the house foreign affairs committee and house republican israel caucus. brian, you're cosigning, i know you're pushing a resolution in support of israel. we just had french hill on about the funding side of this but i just want to ask you, brian mast, you know, iran is behind all this and the question is, we heard from john ratcliffe and others. in your view how best, we have, we have to destroy hamas if that were possible, islamic jihad if that were possible but what about iran? we're still playing footsie with iran. i don't see anything. let me, you know what?

here's, here, here is antony blinken's tweet. hang on a second we'll put this up on the full screen. tureish foreign minister and i spoke further on hamas's terrorist attacks on israel. listen to this i encourage turkey's advocacy for a cease-fire around release of all hostages held by hamas immediately. brian mast, that was antony blinken's tweet, x, which he then deleted okay? so he is in the cease-fire camp et cetera. is that inspire confidence? do you think that is people that should be running this operation? >> no confidence whatsoever. i'm a bit more old-fashioned. i believe in significantly more violented than any enemy that comes against me. that is very simply the answer. you are dealing with barbarians. they will take women, children, elderly, hostage everybody sees that at this point. the choice is not how best to appease them, a word used many

times, it is how to best be more violent than them to destroy that enemy. looks like the american war on terror, everything that was a part of that, you hunt, you interrogate, you kill, you repeat. larry: and do we have confidence that this administration will help israel going after hamas and ultimately iran, brian mast? >> i almost feel like that should be a rhetorical question because we know the answer is no. larry: and you will push this resolution? what will it say? these things are not really binding. will it get through the senate? >> this will be binding it helps the house of representatives in that cycle of hunt, interrogate, kill, repeat. part of that, you need to give updates on regular basis, who are the financiers, who are the planners, so those people can go into that system that do get tracked down by the very capable assets that are trained together between the united states of america and israel and others.

larry: brian master, joe biden essentially silent for two straight days. i thought he would come out say something today. he hadn't said a thing. what should he say? what would assure you that the bidens are really 100% behind israel? >> it would look like this? we know that this is not short term. the enemy has to be rooted out in totality and whether there are 5000, 10,000, 15,000, palestinian bodies that stack up, if the job is not done, we're still going to continue to stand beside israel to finish the fight. that is what it looks like because people will get, the u.n., the sympathizers, are going to get weary of this in about 24 hours and start to push israel to back off even more than they already are. larry: that's what worries me too. congressman, brian mass, they got me on a tight leash for this show, but thank you ever so much for coming on. hope to see you soon, sir. >> all the best. larry: coming up here as i said we've been playing footsie with

♪. larry: all right, fox news trey yingst joining us on the phone along the front lines of the battle in southern israel. what can you tell us, latest on the ground, trey? reporter: yeah, absolutely. right now rocket fire has subsided by the israelis are continuing their attacks against the northern and eastern part of the gaza strip. this has been an ongoing battle throughout the day. israelis now using artillery units nearing the border and -- to shell gaza. they are facing the possibility of this opening up into a much broader conflict across the region. hezbollah, the lebanese militant group is involved in the fight now. they say they left nine of their fighters, cross-border attacks they tried to conduct in israel's north. they fired rockets and mortars toward an israeli base they say. this is developing very quickly into a multifront conflict israel is facing. tonight, israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu said this is

just the beginning. the real war has not begun. he said hamas asked for a war, and a war is what they will get. he spoked about the atrocities committed over the weekend when a massacre took place, more than nuon hundred israelis were killed, civilians and soldiers when palestinian militants crossed the border from the gaza strip and conducted this widespread attack. back to you. larry: trey yingst, be safe, thanks ever so much for that report. we have kansas senator roger marshall, expert on foreign policy, member of the homeland security committee. you herd trey yingst, it will be a two front war, two pronged war, hezbollah coming in from the north, and hamas all if you haveness coming from the south. the question, the house will be okay. will the senate back it? will the administration back israel? will they finance it? will they give the support when the towing gets tough and you

get horrible hostage stories? what are you thinking. >> the house and senate will do what they need to be do. you know it will be a month if not a year before the weapons actually get there the white house has everything they need to handle the situation and this is exactly the problem. joe biden hayes he has israel's back but he is most pro-iran president in the history of our nation. that is what his actions show us. this is the president who since day one has promoted iran developing nuclear weapons. you reported the $6 billion he recently released for hostages just three months before that. before that in was another $10 billion he released to give iraq to give to iran as well. it goes on and on. he turns his hid to sanctions. released sanctions. wanted to make the iranian revolutionary guard off the terrorist list. this is the group who planned this war. we need the president to step forward once and for all, to say

israel is dead to me. a zebra will not change its stripes. what else does iran have to do slap america in the face to say enough is enough. we need a president who will stand up to cut the head off this snake. larry: i want to hear biden give a speech to the country. actually, senator, i wanted to hear biden give a speech on the mission and a possible exit strategy from ukraine but that's a separate issue. i want to push that aside for a minute. i'm waiting for a biden speech to the country that will absolutely paragraph by paragraph, defend israel and not only throw hamas, we want to destroy hamas and hezbollah, but throw iran under the bus instead of playing footsie with them as i call it, throw iran under the bus, senator marshall, but i never hear that kind of speech? >> you got it. this, the president needs to step up and let our enemies know

as my dad would say there will be hell to pay for this. all those other terrorist organizations need to know if they get involved with this they will have the full wrath of the united states upon them as well. that we're not going to be backing down. instead we have the president yesterday, what did he do? he shut things down about noon or 1:00 and had a barbecue. today, we know for sure there has been 11 americans that died over there. a thousand israelis and our president shuts things down at noon as well. i'm talking about, his actions prove he doesn't care about this he doesn't have leadership skills. this would have never happened if it hadn't been for afghanistan and how he continues to shed his duties by being reactive rather than proactive this is the most proiranian president america has ever seen. larry: just last one here, the palestinian affairs office in the state department had this tweet, we unequivocally condemn the attack of hamas terrorists and the loss of life that has encured. we urge all sides to refrain

from violence and retaliatory attacks. terror and violence solve nothing. that ain't support for israel. now that tweet was deleted but it was put up there i believe saturday evening. i mean, really this tweet, the blinken tweet was deleted also, kind of makes you wonder what the commitment is to israel, to prime minister netanyahu and life of jewish people in general? kind of makes you wonder, senator marshall. last point? >> the president needs to step forward when we want our american hostages back or there will be hell to pay. our president needs to stand up. larry: senator roger marshall of kansas, great stuff. we'll be right back with my last word ollowed me everywhere. so i consolidated it into a low-rate personal loan from sofi. get a personal loan with low low fixed rates, and borrow up to $100k.
