What is Senator Schumer doing? Israel?

0:00 Speaker 1 Sunday Morning with US today is KT McFarlin and she is the Deputy National Security Advisor under Michael Flynn for President Trump. And KT, let’s go around the world. Tell me all the hotspots in Europe, Asia, and tell me give us an update of what’s going on.

0:24 Speaker 2 Well, there are a lot of hot spots, and any one of them could at any point escalate into something that even potentially draws in US troops. But let’s start with Israel and Gaza. We’re going to reach a crisis moment.

0:37 The Biden administration will with Israel because they’ve been saying in the last couple of days that they don’t like beeping at Yahoo. They want different leadership in Israel, and Israel needs the United States military equipment and intelligence sharing to continue to fight. Israel has said we are going to go into the southern the last half, the bottom

0:58 part of Gaza to eliminate Hamas. We’re going to kill off Jamas, and the Bide administration is basically put a red line and said, no, you can’t do that. Too many Palestinians are going to die. So that’s going to come to a crisis point. I would think in the next week or so does Israel go into Rafa to

1:15 finish off Hamas and if they do well, the Bide administration somehow punish them, break with them with whole weapons. We don’t know, and that could go in any one of a number of ways. And the reason is that the Biden administration is taking this position is because of Michigan.

1:30 It’s all about the Arab Muslim voters in Michigan. Michigan’s a swing state. Biden needs those voters to vote for him and to show up at the polls, to not stay home. And so those people, those voters are as a block, very anti Israel, pro Palestinian, pro Hamas. So Biden’s trying to be good to Israel, but he’s trying

1:50 to be good to the voters in Michigan, and he’s going to have to make a decision. There’ll be a crisis point I think.

1:56 Speaker 1 Quite soon, understood sooner or late? I mean, I just don’t understand how our foreign pology has been working lately. What’s the next hotspot that you are worried about?

2:12 Speaker 2 Okay, well, let me just go to another point. In the same conflict, the United States is building these peers to have boats that can come in and then give supposedly give aid to the Palestinians, it’ll really be aid to Hamas. American military is going to do this, and I think the likelihood of somehow American boots getting on

2:31 the ground in Gaza in the Middle East has gone way up. The second thing I would worry about is we sort of look at around the world’s next I would say, we’re going to face another crisis and decision point over Ukraine and Russia. Russia’s going to lauch the Spring Offensive. It’ll probably be successful. Ukraine is not going

2:49 to win this war no matter how much aid we give to Ukraine, and so somebody’s going to have to make a decision. Are the Republicans and Donald Trump? Are they going to continue to support Ukraine at the level they are because the Biden administration has no plans for negotiation.

3:05 Every time anybody, including the public as you should go to the negotiating table, the Biden administration says, no, Ukraine is going to win. Well, nobody thinks Ukraine is going to win this war. It’s only going to lose it more slowly. So the best thing to do would be the Donald Trump plan. Force everybody to the negotiating table

3:22 and then cut a deal and then let Ukraine win the peace because countries and companies will rush in to rebuild Ukraine after the fighting stops.

3:31 Speaker 1 Wow. Well, I hope it happens soon because this is so much, you know, so many people are dying. And yeah, I mean I could never understand why President Biden would not allow the Ukrainians across the Russian border.

3:49 Speaker 2 Well, so his worry, the Biden administration is worried that somehow this is going to escalate, either because Ukraine is going to lose and then Russia is going to keep going and invade a NATO country, or because if Ukraine had offensive weapons then it would potentially go into Russia, would attack Russia, and then Russia would respond by going

4:08 into NATO countries. So their fear is always escalation. But the problem is that in doing so, we have now been two years into a war that is starting to look a lot more like World War One, another forever war which nobody is going to win and both countries are going to lose. So negotiate an end of that

4:26 one as fast as you can, understood.

4:29 Speaker 1 And the Red Sea one, how much is it affecting shipping friends of mine in the food business. He says that they’re paying double or triples sometimes for ships. It’s just at what point can you go back to normal?

4:51 Speaker 2 Well, probably won’t go back to normal until there’s a different president. So the Biden administration, like the Obama administration before it, the policy was always to sort of appease and placate or let them get nuclear weapons, will be really nice to them, and hopes that Iran is going to then become a responsible world player. And of course

5:07 that has not been the case. It’s been just the opposite. Iran has taken American weakness as a point of exploitation. And then since we’ve made Iran rich because of Biden’s energy policies and his refusal to enforce the sanctions, Iran’s got plenty of money to wage these wars, and so they’re letting their Huti Kuti’s Hussies, you know who don’t

5:29 even knows John Yemen is on a map. Most people couldn’t find it, and they don’t even know what Hucci’s are, But somehow Huci’s are. We were one missile that’s strike away from the Huti’s launching a missile and destroying American or Allied shipping, either shipping containers or potentially even a military vessel, and then we’re in a war. So as

5:50 a result, your point is that insurance companies are saying, we don’t want commercial shipping in the red seat, too dangerous, So all those ships have to be diverted all the way around the southern coast of Africa to reach between Europe and Asia and vastly increasing the price of shipping.

6:09 And it’s going to have a real inflationary effect on the economy.

6:12 Speaker 1 It’s hurting the price of oil, it’s hurting the price of food, and the price of product. I mean, the consumer ends up paying for it somewhere sooner or later, and it causes inflation to go up. And if it causes inflation to go up, guess what, interest rates are not going down. So it’s a disaster for the Biden

6:33 administration that wanted everything to go down at this point, I mean, we got about a minute left. Tell us anything new in China and the Pacific.

6:46 Speaker 2 You know, China is sort of it’s called a salami tactic. So they’re like slicing a little bit off of that salami every day, every week, China is increasingly doing provocative things to Taiwan, and the worry is going to be that China is going to make a move, especially if they see that the United States this week. My concern

7:06 at all these hotspots is we are now entering a period of maximum danger because the bad guys are looking at Joe Biden and saying, oh my gosh, if Donald Trump wins, we’re going to be in big trouble. We’ve got to take advantage of the United States while we can, while the United States is weak, and they’ll try to

7:23 seize their moment of opportunity cause a crisis in the minute there’s a crisis with one, then they’ll all pi along.

7:29 Speaker 1 Thank Kach mcfallin. Thank you so much for the updates of the American people, and we’ll catch up with you again real soon to find out if we’re making any progress. Thank you so much.

7:41 Speaker 2 Thank you, John
