is and will not, and cannot be realized. what does this heard? there is a response from sit on the minister of foreign affairs denouncing a report by the you in independence, international fact finding this emphasis on which has asserted that saddam's warning parties to have committed an appalling range of the many children by nations and international crimes. including many which may amount to what crimes and crimes against humanity, but stands for an official ministry, has described the listeners publication of the report as a lack of professionalism and independence. also mentioning that the mission is aligned with well known international forces that it claims have long held hostile stalls, has towards dawn. and this comes as extensive crimes being committed and so done as the conflict between the rapids support forces and each student. these um forces ravages the country. in fact is since april of 2023 and in this report. so you and brings both parties for those crimes just exactly how they really explained to the

machine to we found that there are reasonable grounds to believe that both stuff on our staff and their respective allies have committed the word crimes of violence. i do sly against life in person, in particular, mother of all kinds already put to their full clothes and recommends for the deployment of an independent impartial force to protect civilians in the country the saddam and forces. also, safety concerns, international active, i've chosen to overlook many proposals that they have put forward to add that to include decoration. and so in these parameters, if you need a general delgado has very recently said he was a committed to a ceasefire. and the devastation was even as far as and continues and no progress made um, overall the piece towards the made between the calendar and so done. but it's the

chief general hon. bullhorn who's the foreign affairs ministry, had accepted a u. s. invitation to folks in august as well so recently made it very clear that she will not retreat. she will not give up and she will not be go shared with any into to have addition to this. that we will not lay down our guns until the country is cleansed of any rebel or mercenary. and we will not accept negotiations that undermine the dignity of our people. the battle with the enemy continues and we will not retreat or surrender. and we will not negotiate with any party, no matter who it is. lot of people to sit on a starving men, the sick and struggling to get a basic help. and then these do constant sending fact a day off to the countries who lives reject to the cool by the you in which was yesterday i'm sending showed that he's 21 people at a market in south east officer don co pay us from the world health organization also says that the international community has a forgotten about so don is a paying little heed or to the con,

6 series transfer your thoughts with the questions in mid many parts of the off the country as the severity levels are quite increasing, especially when you look at those numbers because as it stands, reports tells us that almost 25000000 people require assistance. in 2024 and an estimated 7900000 individuals were displaced internally within saddam since april, off, trained between the city and around 2000000 people across the borders into neighboring countries since april last year as well. so the situation is quite died and so done . while that rose up, this is all joined to rick sanchez on direct impact. so it makes on moving back from the needs of data from around the globe that somebody out the

everybody i'm rick sanchez. this is the week of the review, and here is some of what we're going to be talking about. turning the page on the last decade of what i believe has been contrary to is where it's the spirit of our country really lives with the last decade. of course, the last 3 and a half years has been part of your administration. the american people are proud to know when a foreign powers attempting to exploit our country's free exchange of ideas. harris gives their 1st interview as you saw how did you do also marriage, garlic, warrens about election interference. once again, i'm rick sanchez. this is direct impact and uh hey, what do you say? we talked about the 6 the okay, here we go. there's a lot to talk about because a lot of has happened over the last week. and joining us now to go through some of

the events of the week is uh, the convo couch, host friend of the show. we can say craig pasta, do live down with a past that was a positive for you, but it's not bypass the new law. greg, thanks so much for joining us by for i look forward to the conversation. so otherwise. so there's a this outcry with tens of thousands of people joining in right now. this has been taking place for quite a while now over the last though, 4 or 5 days in israel. it's a, it's a citizen outcry, and you've seen it. it's caused by 1st and foremost, the depths of about 6 hostages. the corps riley's citizens really angry at these people, these tens of thousands of people who've taken to the streets. mostly they're angry at their own government. let me show you what this, what these protests look like. the don't a lot of those protesters are angry mostly because of the news that has recently

come out. just appeared by the way. it's written by it has really newspaper details . how there was this recent bill. right. and, and this deal would, would create a cease fire and the return of the hostages. and these people are angry that, that deal didn't come, you know, wasn't consummated. it. what's weird is israel agreed to it come off, agreed to it. they both said, hey, let's return the hostages. let's do a ceasefire, and this thing will be over right. wrong. because then israel's war cabinets said no, no, no, no, no, let's not do this thing. let's not do the ceasefire. let's not agree to the hosp just being return. they essentially according to the uh, the, this newspaper in uh, in israel. they sabotaged there all day. all right? and then they rated the tunnel and gaza, where the hostages were, and the hostages died. that's why people in israel are paid off. right. it seems like an obvious case of, i don't know, i is an incompetent. is it

a deliberate aggression? do they just want this thing? the m craig? i'm gonna bring you in. what's your take? you know, so at least we know who's in charge over there in israel, right? the work cabinet at the end of the day of the ones calling the shots. you see these protests rich, you start to think like maybe we're going to get something out of this. maybe the is really government will finally be scared. i don't know because it's really in united states, the most propagandized citizens out there. so i mean, we can only hope, i don't want to see any violence, but you know, at the end of the day, if the government isn't scared of their own citizens, nothing will change. yeah. it is, it is impressive to see people out on the streets and it, you know, and you've gotta, you gotta was to do is real. i've been israel. i don't know if you've been, is real. you know, it's actually, interestingly enough, one of the most democratic places on our bill is no shortage of people. they're expressing their opinions and people saying what they think of people who disagree

with their government, etc. and yet when it comes to this particular issue, if you're right man, it looks like it's, it's be these way or the highway, right? that. yeah, i mean listen, i, i have never been is real like yourself, but uh, from what i understand that they're a little bit less willing to deal with the palestinians than they were maybe 2030 years ago. yeah, the norm finkelstein mentality is kind of flown out the door, but that's years of programming and propaganda. so, i mean, if there are those voices out there, rick, i hope they break through because this war is just, it's a tragedy now. 40000 dead. i mean, when's that gonna stop? yeah, now you're absolutely right. by the way, according to some estimates, it's a triple that number that you just mentioned. okay, there's perhaps only one country in the world that is more obedient to israel than the us and that country, by the way, is that you, okay? but now for the very 1st time, we are seeing a little bit of a kink in that arm or listen to this, this is a british foreign secretary. did you hear these areas announcing to his parliament,

a change in the money and the funds that's going to be sent? there is real time food in the house today. the assessment i have received recently unable to conflict. anything other than dr. saxon u. k. on this ex post israel, that does exist a clear risk that they might use to commit will facilitate a serious sponsorship of international humanitarian. so he says, looking at their violating international law and then we're not going to send them all. busy of the funds that we owe them, we're gonna keep backs on. it's not all the funding but, but it's certainly a significant message that, that they're sending that he's sending. but wait, there's more we now learn the prime minister, after getting a call from washington, appears to be pushing back saying that by not sending the arms, we would hurt to cease fire. so they should go ahead and send all the arms. because

if you don't send it to him, somehow the ceasefire would be effected. personally. i don't see the connection between one thing and the other. do you, craig? you know, i do not. i think this is more about the pitch for its coming to the gate. once the pitch for its coming to the gate, we got to give the citizen something the coffin them down. so to me, this is nothing more than lip service. i mean, the balfour declaration came out of great britain for crying out loud. so i think at the end of the day, you're always going to see no matter what england align with the state of israel, they'll give them what they want at the end of the day. yeah. and it's funny that you know, you know, those news that as soon as we play that play but not us, but others play that clip that somebody in washington would pick up the phone and call the, the prime minister about great britain and say, hey, what, what what, what, what did you guys just do? let's rethink this and, and we need an argument against it. the argument is we're on the brink of a ceasefire deal, and this could interfere with those, these fired deal. now i will say this, i look if they're really on the brink of

a ceasefire deal. thank goodness, great. however, it said this about a 100 times in the last year that they're on the brink of a cease fire deal and there's no damage these fire deal. the, the i didn't the ceasefire. now, what's that going to do? i think they were obtaining their objective and that was never to really get rid of a moss. it was the ethnically cleanse. that was fine. and they want that way. and i mean, even jared cushion has come out and say, hey, we're going to get some beach front property for you. at the end of the day, i think all is really is especially the ones in the government had that in mind. and that they're not gonna stop until they obtain that there appears to be a shakeup in the ukraine government. the most significant being the resignation of the country's foreign minister is a big deal. this guy, the mutual cooler bar, is uh, or collab a. uh, pardon me, my ukrainian not so good. he's one of ukraine's most recognizable faces on the international stage. this is a guy who goes around the world telling countries why they need to back ukraine, right? the quote, he resigned, he's out, it's a mix,

a alpharetta. it also seems that ukrainian president zalinski is gamble when he chose to divert thousands of troops across into the russian border is let's just say not working. right. that's according to most western, well wait, military exports are saying that it's not, not rick sanchez, not craig. here's a retired colonel who appeared on the hill. don't think this is a success on the print side at all. as a matter of fact, i think the time they proved that this hastened their potential military loss. and let me explain why. when you're talking about sending between 15 and 20000 total soldiers into the country, the size of russia, there's literally no chance that that can have any kind of success. because russia just has too many resources, personnel, emulation, air, power, etc. and that is basically a deadman walking. it's not going to be too much longer before russia is going to put this out. it reminds me of the old saying guys like you and i used to say on

the school yard when some other kid was threatening us. if you're going to mess with me, but you better bring an army. you mean, that's kind of what's going on right here, and it appears like the conditions for an end to this, a situation between ukraine and russia, given all these things that we're now seeing on the, in the theater it might be in the offering. how do you see it? great. well, 1st off, i'd like to point out that i think your main goal in is better than your, your community. and for sure. i know we just gotta get that out there. but look, there's a lot of people whose lot that october 7th was allowed to happen, that the ease really is new. it would happen. and there's a lot of talk right now that the russians knew that they were going to make this, you know, incursion into cursed, and they allowed them to come on it. and at the end of the day, it would seem like a brilliant plan if they knew this was happening, you know, they have less than their forces in the dom boss. the russians are breaking through over there on the defensive hold. mm hm. so, i mean, i mean what stupid have a move. i, like i said, i think this was the when the information battle rick,

when they wanted to get more money, why did they get more funding? and by, you know, getting up some headlines that they penetrated the rest of the 1st time since world war 2. i mean, they might help them get money, but it's a different situation than it is. and ukraine, when it comes to the government, trying to convince their citizens that it is and is real well, you know, and remember new and are old enough to remember in the old days when it used to be the soviet union. and we always used to call them the fair. we always just talk about, you know, don't wake up the sleeping bear. don't poke the bear. well, this is, this is more than a poke. and this week we seeing what we've seen the russians do militarily, is they've actually increased some of their actions going after city. they maybe would not have gone through an attack and, and certainly increasing their movement into pro last one of the most important hubs in, in that whole area. so they, they, he may have actually pope the bear using the old adage. yeah,

absolutely. i heard that some of the troops in the, in the prose guerria the, the russian troops are playing the song called tell california you can check out anytime you like. but you can never leave and there. yeah. to get back to the dom boss who are not allowed to the russians, are just picking them off one by one. but i think rick, that a lot has to be set about how the russians are conducting this more. you know, they could have wiped out ukraine from day one. they have the power, but they don't want to do so because they look at a lot of the ukrainians as their brothers. so being able to remove the ukrainians methodically, you seem to be their game plan and they seem to be pulling it off. but it really is a shame right now. almost a half a 1000000 new crania lives lost in this for oh, it's just, yeah, no, no, it does not know you're right. the numbers are all over the place. but look, you're, you're absolutely right to say that in a situation like this and it's never good for either side and the end, the sooner rush, it comes to the table and comes up with some kind of deal as well as ukraine. the

better for all of us and for the entire world, and certainly for the ukrainian people and the russian people. so, you know, listen, all we can do is watch. all right, when we come back, i want to talk about something else. imagine if uh, imagine this press the united states goes to some country because they're, you know, on air force one, when i'm acting like i'm flying a plane, i don't know how he arrives in air force one. and while he's there, somebody confiscates his point that just happened, but it wasn't the united states. i'll tell you who it is when we come back the the hey, welcome back. i'm rick sanchez, craig the deal of joining us as well. and let's talk about this great, you ready? imagine if the president of the united states traveled to another country and while

he or she were there, their plain air force, one was seized. i'd take some kind of uh, hoops bar, right. some kind of all the dishes and that's right. well that's kinda what the united states just did do the president of venezuela. they seized his plane while he was in the dominican republic because they say, well, they don't agree with the way that he bought it. that he violated us rules the us rules match up falls. it's kind of crazy, right? even this, but even the special agent who actually facilitated this, right? the f b i agent whose job it was, you know, they, they, they said hey, go get that point. right. so he's now being interviewed by reporters and he's having a tough time explaining what he did or why he did it. so today we sees a venezuelan on aircraft predominantly used by venezuelan president, nicholas monroe in violation of us sanctions and other matters that we're looking

at into the aircraft. what does that mean? so today we change the aircraft in violation with us sanctions against venezuela, by the united states government. and you have to explain kind of what the sanctions were. so it's, it's the ongoing existing sanctions that the old back is levied against venezuela for years now. i almost feel sorry for the guy it's like so what did you do? oh, we install that plane. why? oh, we just we just did we, we just took the plane. and why did you take the plan? factions? what senses? oh, you know, the sanction thing. sanctions like this, something silly about the whole thing and i don't have good grades. well, i mean to be arrogance of this uh, intelligence uh, agent over here kind of mirror. the arrogance of the united states foreign policy. they couldn't steal the elections, they can steal their goal, they can steal their oil,

then as well as that is. so now they're trying to steal anything they could, their plane. so i mean, also the fact that we see the d r. we know completely right now that they are a client state of the united states public. this is kind of crazy over here. i'm just wondering how they're going to manufacture consent to continuously get involved with these countries and interfere and do whatever they want. yeah, sooner or later the american people got to say enough is enough, or if you've got to stop, well what, what, what they seem to be trying to do in venezuela, they were able to pull off in the dominican republic when they removed the trujillo government. many, many years ago by sending in the marines and then the c. i went in there and, and did what they have to do. uh, you know, we all know that that's part of latin american history as far as us engagement codes. but, you know, it's just, it's just funny that they haven't figured out that they're helping madura. i mean, i know this because i'm cuban for years. fidel castro, state and power by telling the cuban people the gringos, the yankees are coming to attack us at any moment. now you need me to protect you

from them. what do you find when dora was saying right now in bed as well? i'll do a bit of on people bear true they, they just took my blood and i need your help. and what am i going to say? mostly the poor people of that as well who voted for we love you even more now, mr. commander in chief or whatever the hell they call them it just it's don't forget everything else is just dumb. it's bad, it's too bad deal baltics to do stuff like that. it's how it are productive. rick, when i go to a lot of these countries as it happens, or 5 elections in latin america, most of these people, whether they be conservative, liberal left this right is they want their national sovereignty, they want the right to call who they want the they to elect the government, they want to do what they want with their resources, not the united states. so you want 100 percent. right. rick, when the united states pulls these moves off, it's counterproductive and it just empowers the government that's already there. yeah, yeah. well, the company is a socialist. well,

it's their social is not ours. they can to pick and choose a fascist. the social is the crime, is the green a whatever the hell they want. i mean, it's not our place to decide who we like or the who they like for that matter. yeah . it's. this is a fascinating conversation. okay. vice president. com a lot, harris. she did the interview. she was interviewed for the 1st time. no less by a friendly interviewer at cnn. same halting, cautious. not exactly inspiring all the while taking these questions from somebody who she should have been really comfortable with. i mean, look, dana bash. i worked with dana, she's not a bad person, but i'll, i'll be honest with you. she's very friendly to the democratic party. and she brings to the interview, i think, a clear bias toward most of ms harris's position. so miss harris coming out here is, should a trip to live in this interview, she took on weight to turn the page on the last decade of what i believe has been contrary to where the spirit of our country really lives with the last

decade of ports the last 3 and a half years has been part of your administration. i'm talking about an era that started about a decade ago. but kudos to dana bash report that out. i mean, is, as we got to change the last 10 years, have been absolutely horrible. and then then it says, you know, you guys were in charge the last 4 years while you utilize that's. that's not exactly what i met. but look, here's what i think. kind of a harris gives great speeches. when she reads the speech of a teleprompter, it's awesome. and i think she's doing a great job as a candidate enforcing you know, that boat that was unsure about binding and she's getting it now. so kudos to her and her team for doing that. she's not so good in a one on one interview. she's not so good without the teleprompter. i think she didn't. she wasn't horrible, but she just was different. right? that fair? well, she's off. she's also not so good at random questions coming out, or this is,

you know, this has been going on for years with kamala harris. they try to hide her as much as they can keep her in the echo chamber, which are absolutely right. reg, this, this interview was on the clinton news network, cnn, right? and she should a knock this thing out of the park. in fact, the only good part of this election, excuse me, it's going to the only good part of this interview is when they asked the question about donald trump for rhetoric towards her. and she says, i'm going to take a pass. i'm going to take the high road. that was it at the end of the day, she stumbled fumbled all over the place and they weren't even hard questions. well, yeah, i'm not sure it's not. i mean, which was a horrible, but it's, this is not a thing, right? i mean maybe that's okay, but i won't tell you this, and this is an important conversation that i'm about to have with you. it doesn't matter. it doesn't matter. nobody gives a crap about whether a candidate goes on cnn or goes on fox or goes on, whatever cbs abc they don't care if, if we realized president obama was the 1st one to realize this. if you go back and

you talk to some of his handlers, they learned that they don't need to count to the media. they don't need to do interviews with the media. she then the system here because after a while they said, you know, everybody's talking about talk, you didn't do an interview. so she said ok, i'll do the interview. they don't care. this is not gonna make or break people voting for her. the only people who are going to watch the interview are people who watch cnn. uh, the only people who are watch trump, when he does an interview with fox, all the people already voting for him on, on fox media is just let me, let me just use the binoculars. it ain't what it used to be. my friend. yeah. and she doesn't need to even talk about policy. rick, i was in the streets of chicago with their supporters and their voting based upon their feelings. she makes me feel good. she makes me feel right. so i mean, we're just in the and the whole co opted controlled environment where it's red team

versus blue team. and at the end of the day, people are looking for policy, your answers. they're just looking for confirmation bias, let's say the but by the way, here's where i disagree or do you think. 2 if a president is able to couldn't clinton had bad power way in, oh my god, he made america feel good about itself without ever talking about anything substantive. but when he did finally have to talk about substantive in the details . he mail it, he was okay with it. he did pretty good at it. but reagan was great at what you just said, that if pamela harris could at least pull that off, you know, good on her. but at some point you've got to pay the piper. you know, you've gotta, you've got to come with something other than a beautiful smile and, and good looks and an attractive laugh you've got it. you've got to bring something else. i'm bringing joy, rick, i got joy for you, man. i mean, i am making fun of come on harris is that our campaign?

and that's not fair. mr. dula. alright, us attorney general comes out and he's warning americans about election interference once again points again to russia. china and iran as potential culprits. and then went on to name some influencers, allegedly connected to r t, who are secretly paid to propagate allegedly information that could affect how people vote in the upcoming presidential election. and that's it. that's fair. in fact, here's marriage, garland who i think would have made a great supreme court justice, myself explaining the american people are entitled to know what the foreign powers of attempting to exploit. our country's free exchange of ideas to send around tickets on propaganda. he's all right. absolutely. and if that's what they want to stop, then i have to have another question that i have that he has to ask for me. where

is that consistency is jaya tucker, elephant sitting in that room in front of him that he apparently doesn't see. let me share that too, to an elephant with you and what it looks like. because i, well let's that we agree our job here, for example, my job is not to take sides uh its to be transparent. it's to tell you the truth and you know, nobody tells me what to say. i write the show you this, i wrote this, you know, us lawmakers. meanwhile, speaking of transparency receive more than $58000000.00 from the government of israel, and its lobby is in the last election cycle. it is why they voted against the ceasefire recommendation. and during the 1st 6 weeks of its war on guys, members of congress received on average a $125000.00 from pro is rarely lobby goods according to open secrets dot org. so, you know, yes, no government has the right to go to another place or another country and pay

people to secretly tell people how to got it. agreed. and if somehow archie did that, they shouldn't. but what about israel? i mean, they literally are buying politicians to affect our policy and our politics. how about that? yeah, rick, i'm glad you pointed it out because i was going to put it out if you didn't. how about israel? but, you know, when it comes to the whole russian situation is like russia, gates 3 point oh, at this point it's like hollywood re making a bad movie is like, why are you doing this? yeah, there is a lot of programming in conditioning that goes on with how bad the russians are. so i think that's why it could be pulled off. i mean, i rooted for the move. i had dean and rambo 3 because you know, rocky had fought against the russian in rocky ford. right. so they've already programs out to our side that russia is the enemy that russia is. what at which is fine. you can, you can do all you want, but if you're going to have a policy that says you can't do this, you can't just say our friends can do it,

or these describe over here can do it. but this group over here cannot. that's not consistent. that's not transparent, that's a gives every thing that we as americans stand for when it comes to fairness, that's all, that's all i'm saying. i'm not saying one sides guilty or anything like that. uh, you probably agree down to about 15 seconds quote. take us and just really quickly the, the only democracy in the middle east. we need them, they're like the aircraft carrier over there. so we can go along with it. if it's someone we like. yeah, but that's not what i teach my children. they're supposed to do or how they're supposed to act, and it is what it is. all right, thank you. my friend, great conversation. this was fun. that's our show. remember, always look outside your own box. true. so they don't live in boxes. i'm rick sanchez, will be looking for you next to the

to is this uh, wanting to find a bite in this list as room morning from hi ranking officials, including his defendants, that the rates went emergency was when it's due from leading to the teen service. well, being killed that has come out how it's supposed to apply the thing people are dead and that the full wounded. these are the apple strikes several cities across the cereal, right. they're sitting on korean dollars worth of news or taking goods our economy . so i want to keep telling our friends and you think we can win this, they need or help us. so that is a grab a spill the beans funding. it's all about you.
