How should America REACT to Hamas, Iran TERRORIST attacks on Israel?

Israel has declared war fir the first time in 50 years after Hamas terrorists attacked multiple cities and slaughtered hundreds of Jews in an event that the nation is comparing to 9/11. But how did Israel not see this attack coming? Glenn and his head researcher, former military intelligence analyst Jason Buttrill, break down what we currently know: "This was an Iranian-backed, Iranian-planned, Iranian-coordinated plot." So, how should we take the fact that the Biden administration just gave Iran access to billions of dollars? And where will this war go from here? Glenn warns that Iran and Hamas are serious about destroying Israel. So, maybe Biden should reconsider how much of our military resources he's throwing at Ukraine.

GLENN: Fabian, a friend of mine from Israel wrote in. On the Sabbath, it felt like 1973 all over again. We woke up to the distant thunder of missiles and Iron Dome interoceptors. Something big was on. But our devices were off, because of Shabbat.

And so only our neighbors and the security services knew how big this was. We walked to morning prayers. Not halfway through the local border officer, interrupted the service, to say, an exceptional event was unfolding. And we should get the children inside the house. Terrorists had infiltrated in large numbers. And were moving through the countryside.

And we started seeing our friends and our neighbors, wearing green uniforms, instead of holiday white, heading off to serve.

The Sabbath, overridden by the need to protect life. One stopped, and told us to go home. In the afternoon, we heard machine guns over the horizon a cell must have want to be close. It is ugly. It's as ugly as it has ever been in my lifetime. We're in total shock. The same kind of shock in 1973. The same complete failure of intelligence, complete inadequacy of border protection systems. Utter shock of the burning tank this enemy couldn't defeat. It's the same enemy we thought.

That also, we thought they would never dare something like this.

It's 1948, the Independence War. Villages invaded. Residents slaughtered wherever they were found.

Here were also the same enemy as now, village streets are full of bodies.

Women and children massacred in their homes. Teenagers made to go door-to-door to get the residents to open their house, so they could all be killed, execution-style, more easily.

Hostages, including soldiers, but also once again women, children, grandmothers, taken to Gaza to faces God only knows what fate.

Shock is still profound. And anger, lots of it. Grief has started mixing in, as the funerals have started today. As a dad, my four children are still small. The youngest is six. The oldest is 11. My oldest boy is eight. So when I think about them. I thank God, we don't live near Gaza. My children are safe now. I have no illusions about what could happen to them, if Hamas got their hands on them. Proud of my children. They are scared. We don't show them the images. We don't let them listen to the news. But we also don't lie to them. The thunder over the horizon is not really thunder. And they know it.

They see the neighbors in uniforms leaving the village to go serve. They know there's a war on. They know we were attacked. They know hundreds are dead. They grasp at the level of a child. But they know it. We tell them the truth without gory details. And always accompanied with our advice to trust God and the IDF. But we do tell them the truth. We tell them that it's okay to be afraid. And the best way to deal with fear, is to not pretend it doesn't exist. Or that scary things don't. The best way is to look fear straight in the eyes, and tell them, we're bigger than it is.

It's not going to get the better of us. Lo and behold all of this actually seems to help. They are brave. They're patient. Well-behaved for the situation. Yes, they have nightmares. They're cupid up in a locked house for way too long. And that gets loud. But I'm proud of them. I'm a proud Israeli father. Glenn, thank you for your prayers. For what it's worth, you, your family, and America, are in my prayers, daily. America is in its own dark and ugly times of its own right now. Much of it, it seems by design, and it might get worse before it gets better. But I have hope. May God bless and keep you. Fabian.

Jason Buttrill, who is our chief researcher also was military intelligence, is here to tell us how did they get in, Jason?

JASON: Well, Glenn, it was a -- it was an unprecedented event. I would say, possible, but only impossible if it was just a few random terrorists within the Gaza Strip. But that's not what this was. This was an Iranian-backed, Iranian-planned, Iranian-coordinated plot to pull this off.

They came in from multiple areas, they came in from the sea. Boats from the sea. They came physiological paragliders through the air. And they came through a very coordinated and sophisticated attack from the land. They first used drones to knock out observation towers along the border. They then fired a barrage of rockets to distract, across the border. And then they went in with explosives, IEDs on the border fences.

I was in this exact same area, and some of the exact same towns that were hit the hardest, when we opened up our -- our -- our embassy in Israel. And the IDF spokesman then. He's been making several announcements over the past weekend, predicted this exact same thing.

He said, if we're not. If we do not respond the way they're responding, they will come into these areas. They will hit these towns.

That's exactly what they did, and it's absolutely insane that we're seeing the response that we're seeing from western governments today, offering just random support, even though why they do it in the background is they, you know, give funding to -- to Hamas through Palestine.

I mean, the -- the reactions and the way that they responded, has been actually atrocious.

And what we should be doing, is there was a blueprint for this, Glenn.

This did not have to happen. There was a blueprint for this to not happen.

It was the Abraham Accords.

It was exactly what the Trump administration had set forth. I saw the state department talking about recently, how there had been unprecedented peace.

Well, yeah. Of course there had been. Because there was a good plan to do this. But you abandoned it. You abandoned it when you started going back to Iran and incentivizing them, to do what they're doing now.

And it was absolutely insane, how we saw over the weekend.

You saw how Kirby, and the rest of the State Department, were trying to backtrack furiously.

And say, oh, no. The 6 billion we ave did nothing. It was in a secure account in Doha. It was for health aid and humanitarian aid.

Well, what do you think they will divert their funds to? Once they knew they didn't have to divert all the other money, the billions to medicine and food. What did you think they would devote that money to? Terrorist attacks. That's what they did.

It's shameful. It's absolutely shameful.

GLENN: By the way, here is Iran. Iran was having a military parade.

And it aired on channel one, in Iran.

We got this from memory TV. Cut three, please.

We have come here to tell the elder of Khomeini, that Israel will be raised from the face of the earth.

Death to Israel.

The officials of the Zionist regime make a mistake. The Islamic Republic will raise Tel Aviv and IFA to the ground!

This is very clear, and we're going to go into where this all comes from.

You know, I've been saying for years, that the next Holocaust will come from Iran. They are serious about raising Israel.

And vanishing, the Jew. Here's the Hamas leader to the Jews. Also, from memory.

This is airing now on television, all throughout the Middle East.

This is our call to our resistance to our West Bank. To our people.

You're resistance abroad. Our strategic allies. The sons of this nation.

Today is your day.

We are on the verge of victory. Let us be partners in creating this great victory.

In conclusion, we say to the enemy, that is making threats and going on a rampage, your threats, rampage and arrogance did not, will not help you. We say one thing: Get out of our land.

Get out of our faces. Get out of our Jerusalem, and our Al-Aqsa Mosque. We do not want to see you on this land.

This land is ours. Jerusalem is ours. Everything is ours.

So I think it's pretty clear. You know, what they want. And I don't think it's a two-state solution. Maybe people will listen. Now, these same people say different things. You know, when they're speaking in English.

But that's why we go to memory, which is a -- an organization, that translates, all of the news, into English. So you can read the subtitles, you know exactly what they're saying.

And they are very, very, very clear.

Here is cut five. Hamas, a commander calling for more attacks.

Listen to this. In light of the continuous crimes against our people, and in light of the occupation's rampage, and its disregard for international laws and resolutions. And in light of the American and western support of Israel and the international silence, we have decided to put an end to all of this, with the help of Allah.

So the enemy understands, that the time it could go on a rampage, without it being held accountable is over.

We declare the beginning of operation Al-Aqsa Deluge. To say to the young people in the West Bank from the various organizations: Today is your day to sweep out the occupiers, and their settlements.

From all of our lands and the West Bank, to make them pay the price for their crimes over the lean years. Organize your attacks on this settlements, with all your means at your disposal.

Torch the earth, under the feet of the plundering occupiers. Kill, burn, destroy, and shut down roads.

Make the cowardly occupiers understand that the Al-Aqsa Deluge is bigger than they think.

The day has come, when anyone who has a gun, should take it out.

Now is the time.

If you don't have a gun, take up your cleaver or your axe.

Molotov cocktail. Truck, tractor, or car.

They also go on to say, all of those who are living now in western lands, this leads to the question, how many people are here from Iran? From Hamas? From Hezbollah?

From anybody who wishes us ill?

We know the -- according to the Border Patrol, that 80 -- 80 people that were on our most wanted terrorist list, 80 have come across the border, that we caught.

How many are on the terrorist list, that we didn't catch?

We're going to -- you know, I thought about it this morning. This is -- I've always heard the phrase, you know, elections have consequences.

This is the most consequential election of my lifetime, 2020.

We have depleted all of our resources. Because we have Joe Biden in power. The world is on fire.

The -- the oil shortage, that is here.

The munitions shortage that we have.

Let me bring Jason back in, in one minute, to talk just about how are we going to respond?

And what could we possibly give them. Because we've given them so much already, in Ukraine.

This seems to be, in my opinion, exactly what the Soviet Union, what happened to them.

They're doing to us, what we did to the Soviet Union.

Can you play cut eight, as we go back to Jason?

This is the Palestinian supporter's march in New York City.

Then we have the Palestinian supporter's march in Europe.

Same thing.


Europe is in trouble. I think we're in trouble because we don't know who is -- who is here.

And how are we going to be able to fight on two fronts, if we were to get involved in any kind of war?

Jason.

JASON: Sorry. Seeing that is absolutely disgusting.

That's the equivalent of during the -- during the World War II, if we had known about what was happening to Jews. And then people marching in the streets of New York, parading and glorifying the Nazis. That is absolutely disgusting. You should be ashamed of yourself.

GLENN: And may I just say, the same thing is true.

Hitler said what he would do to the Jews. So does Hamas. So does Hezbollah. So does Iran. So does Syria.

They're very, very clear what they will do to the Jews. Kill them all.

JASON: Yeah. Believe them. Believe them when they say they will do this. Our response is going to be limited. I mean, we don't really have the resources to really respond. We've never really directly responded anyway. We've provided weapons. We've provided basically, you know, a big stick in the background, to wave it around and make sure that nobody else gets involved.

And that's what we will do here.

We will sit probably off the coast. With an aircraft carrier.

I think there's always one inbound. But we will hope that Iran doesn't directly get involved.

They're indirectly involved right now. Because they're using a proxy. They're using Hamas. They're using another group called Palestinian Islamic Jihad. They're using those groups within the Gaza Strip to wage this war. That's what they're doing now.

Will they directly get involved? That's the question right now. And that's when we'll step in. I hope that does not happen.

But I don't -- I don't want to be like every other western analyst that is looking for this.

I've been trained in the same way, that they have, to look at this.

They never account for the wild card. They never account for the crazy man. They never account for the Hitler.

That's what we're looking for with Hitler right now. There is a wild card. Don't be fooled in thinking, this is not deeply religious. This is deeply religious. This is not about geopolitics with Israel. That's like what's so drastically different, than say something like Ukraine. This is drastically different.

This plan could FINALLY FIX our broken immigration system

Is it enough to just stop ILLEGAL immigration in America? Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX) joins Glenn Beck to explain his proposal to stop ALL immigration until we fix our broken system…

Transcript

Below is a rush transcript that may contain errors

GLENN: Anyway, let me go to Chip Roy.

Hello, Chip, how are you, sir?

CHIP: Glenn, how are you? Merry Christmas, bro.

GLENN: Merry Christmas. This is our Congressman from the great state of Texas for Texas attorney general.

Talk to me about your bill on immigration.
Does it have a chance -- tell me what it is. And I want to know if it has a chance of passing.

CHIP: Sure. I mean, you know, you opened this segment by talking about our need to focus on not just illegal immigration, but legal immigration. And I strongly believe that that is true. I think for way too long, we have been getting loose. Fast and loose overly corporate. Overly driven by, you know, your kind of chamber of commerce crowd.

All of a sudden, we now have a situation where we have millions of people in our country, that are not seeking to assimilate, not seeking to assimilate, not seeking to be, quote, the melting pot.

But rather trying to reestablish their cultures from other countries, rather than becoming fully American. And that's been a long string of -- of decisions. And we go back and put it in perspective. We have 51 and a half million foreign-born people here in the United States.

The vast majority of whom, did not come here illegally, right?

But came here legally. Then they've been abusing the process and the system, because we've got this broad use of H-1B one visas. We have diversity visas. We have chain migration. We have everybody's cousin. Uncle, aunt, whatever. And there's the growing population here.

And this is now, unlike it was a century ago, right?

When we had the mass migration. The late 1800s, the early 1900s. And at that point, we didn't have a welfare state. We have schools that were teaching that America was great, or even the Constitution. And we had, you know, God in the schools, and we had our culture being elevated, not being criticized. And at that point, we stood for immigration in the 1920s. Right? We still flatlined it because everybody said, whoa, whoa, whoa. We have so many people in.

Our country was stronger for it. Today is worse. Because we have so many people coming here, who are not assimilating. We have schools that are not teaching people that America is great.

And we certainly are continuing to have a welfare state now, that is causing a big problem. So I think we should pause it. It's called the Pause Act. We should pause legal immigration, until we fix a lot of things.

Fix diversity. Fix chain migration. Fix H1 --

GLENN: Wait. Can you tell me what a diversity visa.

What is a diversity visa? I don't even know what that is.

CHIP: Diversity visas. Chain migration, these are all things being used currently to have expansive use of the ability of people to come into the country, and -- and say that they're -- you know, a family member, right.

An extended individual, in what we're calling chain migration. So you'll have a person come in, and instead of it being a close knit family member, right?

Instead of it being, okay. This is my spouse, or this is my child. It's cousins and aunts and uncles, and so forth.

And, you know, this is the kind of thing that we've got to reform. And including, H-1B visas. And including all the problems that we have here with birthright citizenship.

Obviously, the Supreme Court is going to hear the Trump administration's executive order on that.

But we should codify a new view of how we deal with birthright citizenship. You can only be a citizen, if you're born of citizen parents. Not because you were on our dirt. So these are -- in Texas, right?

We had a Supreme Court opinion, in the 1980s to educate the children. Of illegal aliens. Illegal alien children. We do challenge that, overturn it. And we should fix it.

Until you fix all those things. Fix illegal immigration.

Then we're going to lose our country. We're going to lose our culture, and I think we need to do that. So that's why we have to have a bill to pause it.

I just talked to police officer, the day before yesterday. And I was walking down the street, going into the store for Christmas. And he said, hey, Glenn Beck.

And he had this slight accent. I couldn't tell exactly what it was. And then he said, eventually, I'm Irish. I came from Ireland. I've been here for 20 years. My wife and I lived in Ireland.

I said, my gosh, does Ireland even exist anymore?

And he said, Glenn, it used to be. I go back every year, it used to be you could go anywhere, and you would have the Irish public.

And, you know, you could see Irishmen everywhere. And, yes, there were people from other parts of the world, et cetera, et cetera. But it was Irish!

He said, I can go down into my hometowns, small ones, and he said, I don't see another Irishman.

He said, the Irish culture is completely annihilated. He said, it's all mosques and Pakistanis and whatever.

And he said, is there ever anyone who will say, hey, wait a minute, the Irish culture, the American culture, the English culture.

The -- the whatever culture, that's important too! When is anybody going to step up and say, you know what, we -- we don't want to lose this!

By embracing that! We can have both. But not like this!

CHIP: Well, Glenn, and you know. And, by the way, the thing I -- since I got up and I started talking about chain migration. But just so you know, right? That's a program very specifically designed to bring people in from countries that we don't have significant immigration from. It's literally designed to diversify our immigration population.

GLENN: What!

Who cares?

CHIP: Right. And that's my point. And this is what's so wrong about our immigration system.

And it's being done that way. And by Afghanistan, all of it is being abused. And we have had this mass migration. And, again, you are the ardent defender of the First Amendment. So am I, and you can believe what you want to believe. Right?

And we would never want to insert the federal government into your belief system, like between you and God.

But what we have to remember about Islam is that it is a politically motivated group of individuals. Right?

This is -- when we look at the core, and we look at what -- you look at what the Muslim government is talking about. When you look at Sharia law, when you look at the tenets of Islam, there's a massive political component to it, and we have to remember that.

We have to remember. You actually read the words. Read what's being said. And look what's happening in Dallas.

Epic City is not just an accident. What happened was the growth and the promotion of Sharia law in the United Kingdom, in France, in America.
It's not an accident, okay? And this is well beyond, hey, you can believe what you want to believe. You can be agnostic. You can be Christian, Jewish, Hindu, Muslim. We stand for that principle.

When you come here to annihilate and change your culture. Then you've got to approach that.

We -- we Americans to have approach that in a different way.

And I believe, we should pause immigration. We should be doing what the President is doing.

Remove a whole lot of the people dumped into our country under Biden with illegal immigrants, asylum, that were abused for all those abused by Biden and Mayorkas, and go around and make sure that we are resetting the table and reset our laws. And we should just pause for a while. And reclaim our American culture to your point about what you just said about Ireland.

GLENN: You -- you lay out -- I saw your press release, and you lay out what this bill will do, and I got to read this to the audience.

Because I can't believe you have to say this. It would end the practice of automatic citizenship, yeah, and chain migration.

Yeah, that's not what the Fourteenth Amendment says. That's not what it is about. That's not what it was written for. And the H-1B one visa program. Got it. Ensure immigration assimilation, got it. Now, listen to these last three.

This is what he is proposing we do.

Okay? We're not doing it. He's proposing we do this: Deny entry to Sharia law adherence.

Oh, I don't know. Yes!

I can't believe we have to even say that, out loud. Deny entry to Chinese communist party members. I don't know. Yes!

And the third one: Deny entry to terrorists!

This is a civilization that is on a suicidal path. If that can't happen. That's not -- it's crazy that that's not already happening!

Suicide. Just committing suicide.

CHIP: Well, the other element that we have to factor in is the welfare that is being doled out.

GLENN: Yes.

CHIP: To noncitizens in the form of not just food stamps. Medicaid.

All of the social programs in the federal government. But also our local schools and local hospitals to get inundated by people coming into the United States.

Knowing that they will get free health care and free education, and they might be able to then use birthright citizenship, to come here, to grow here. And none of this is about the melting pot.
And, Glenn, that's what I'm trying to make the case here to people. When you have people who came here, who largely shared our values. And when they came here, they wanted their kids to learn English. They wanted their kids to love America.

They wanted their kids to love our history and our founding. They appreciate what our country stood for. By the way, that mass migration occurred right after the Civil War. So our country has literally been at war. And people said, I want to go there. Because this country stood for something bigger and better. And people knew it. But they wanted to be apart of it. And they wanted to embrace it.

They didn't want to change it. That's not true now. Right? That's definitively not true.

United States Congress. Ilhan Omar.

When we openly and outspokenly, committed to changing America to be like her home country!

That's a problem. That is what is happening. And if we don't -- you can't win a war, that you don't acknowledge exists, Glenn. And there is a war being waged against our way of life. And against our culture.

So look, I've increased the legislation here. But it's also why I'm running for attorney general. And a campaign speech, you hear me.

We have to have states. That are standing up and leading this fight as well.

If we're going to save America.

GLENN: You brought up, you know, there's a war being waged.

I -- every alarm bell in me is going off.

Every alarm bell within me. We are -- we're in a war. We won't even recognize it.

I think the president has. But I think it's going to take a lot more than what we're doing right now. Look at what's happening in Europe.

France just happened their -- their ball drop, you know, for New Year's Eve.

They have it -- every year. They cancelled it. And said, just stay at home. And watch a rerun of it from another year.

That's insanity!

They just have surrendered.

The -- how serious are we at -- at preparing for a civilizational war.


CHIP: Well, I think on the positive side, we have an increasing number of people in leadership, who were understanding the threat.

In a way that they didn't a year ago, or five years ago.

That being said, we also have a long way to go and a very short time to get there. Right?

We have got to move quickly. If you see what's happening in Europe, right? And we go, well, they're 20 years ahead of us now. I don't think that's true.

I think Europe is a mere months, years, few years ahead of us, in terms of how bad it's gotten.

And I think we're now realizing, how much damage we've done over the last decade, in particular. Certainly, the last two decades in terms of the mass influence of people, that do not ultimately share our values. So I do think it's important that we support the president on what he's doing and removing bad actors, and making sure that we're removing people that need to be removed, or here illegally.

But if we don't reform our illegal immigration system immediately. And pause it. And freeze it. And reset who we are as Americans. And get people to understand that when you're here, you're going to embrace being an American. Then we're not going to save the country. Right?

So that's why I wanted to introduce this bill. It's why I introduced this bill. That's why I had to introduce several legislation to defend people from Sharia bill. That's why I've given a bill to take away the tax status for CAIR. We've got to get people to realize, that we need immediate change. That we can't wait. So right now, Congress is not codifying or advancing the ball on this front yet.

The president is doing it unilaterally. And I think that's a problem.

GLENN: Can the house actually get it done? Are we going to pass it? Does it have a chance of ever getting to the president's desk?

VOICE: Right now, we are socializing it, and there's a growing number of people who support the concept. And it's not on social media.

But we've got to get it socialized with the White House and the leadership of the House, to get it to the point of trying to enforce a vote. There's going to be a lot of resistance. There's going to be a lot of people, that are going to be listening to business interests. A lot of people who will say, well, I've got a certain culture in my particular district and so forth.

And we've got to ride the (inaudible) act and recognize, if we don't do this, then we have no chance to save the country.

Because if another 55,000 people come in on diversity visas this year, and another 55,000 coming next year, and then another 55,000 the following year, all from these supposed low immigration countries for purposes of diversity. In addition to the chain migration, in addition to H-1B visas. Right? Do the math. See what's happening.

And how many things are happening. So we've got to freeze that. And reset what we want to do for our country.

GLENN: All right.

It's called the pause act. Get online, and support Chip Roy at the pause act. Ask your Congress man. Your senators.
To join Chip on the pause act. Again, you can follow him on X, at Chip Roy.

TX. He's also running for candidate for attorney general. What is your website? Chip.

CALLER: ChipRoy.com. Pretty simple. Pretty straightforward, and I appreciate it. And look, this Christmas Eve and for everybody out there, Merry Christmas. We have the greatest country in the history of the world. We have to keep our heads up and put our faith in Jesus, and remember that it's on us, to pass it down to our kids and grandkids.

GLENN: Thank you so much, Chip Roy.

The Western World is UNDER ATTACK... And THESE Shocking Stories are Proof

A wave of global instability is forcing Western nations to confront hard truths they’ve ignored for years. From Australia’s deadly attack and a media narrative that excuses extremist violence, to France canceling its iconic New Year’s celebration over “security concerns,” the cracks in Western resolve are becoming impossible to hide. This conversation exposes how denial, mass migration without assimilation, and media double standards are eroding public safety, cultural confidence, and the West’s ability to defend itself from growing threats.

GLENN: You know, there's more on the -- the shooting in Australia. Did you see the comment from the mom?

The -- the hero who disarmed. He's a hero. He's getting a lot of accolades.

But here's the family of Ahmed al Ahmed. No, no, no. That's the good guy. Hang on just a second.

That's the hero. I'm just looking through all of the stories. Here it is. Here it is.

Mother of the Bondi beach shooting suspect. The mother of Naveed Akram, who along with his father, allegedly killed more than a dozen people at a Hanukkah celebration, said on Sunday, insisted her son was a good boy.

Now, I mean, I can understand, you know, you wanting to believe that, because your son is your son. You know, but I don't think -- I don't think anybody in Rob Reiner's family is thinking the brother is a good boy. They might love him still, but he's not a good boy if he indeed did that.

STU: Yeah, there could be an element of thinking, right? Like, you know, he's been overcome by addiction, or overcome by mental illness. And I think he's a good boy underneath hat. You can have that Islamic extremist terrorist son if you want.

But what you would have to say I think accompanying that, was he got infected by this extremism. And, you know, by his dad who, you know, led him down a terrible path.

GLENN: Right. Her husband.

STU: Right. That's a plausible thing, if you believe. He can't be a good boy if he's murdering people, unless, of course, Glenn, you believe that the outcome was positive.

GLENN: Well, it was positive, yes.

She said, he doesn't have a firearm. Yeah, he does.

He doesn't even go out. He doesn't mix around with friends. Well, now you're describing a loner.

He doesn't drink, smoke, or go to bad places. Anyone would wish to have a son like my son. He's a good boy.

No. No. I'm safe to say, I don't want a son like that.

STU: No. Yeah, I'm pretty sure she was about to say, and he stays away from trans fats.

That's great, just doesn't have much to do with this particular incident.

GLENN: Yeah, I would say that. Also --

STU: Can I follow up, while we're in this realm here real quick with this audio. This is -- you mentioned this briefly. But let's play a game here: Can you find the logical problem with this particular audio from ABC News?

This is about the somewhat associated shooting of the pro-Palestinian group. Or the pipe bombing, from the pro-Palestinian group you discussed earlier this hour. This is a real clip, not edited.

GLENN: All right.

VOICE: Nowhere did they allege that any of these individuals wanted anybody to be harmed as a result of these pipe bombs. Specifically, it does appear that their aim was to sent a political message, as they said, prosecutors yesterday in this news conference.

VOICE: Carol and Page also discussed plans for follow-up attacks after their bombings, which included plans to a target ICE agents and vehicles with pipe bombs.

STU: Now, can you detect any issue with that?

GLENN: I found two.

I found two.

One, they're not targeting anybody with the use of the pipe bomb!

STU: Right.

GLENN: Now, maybe. Maybe nobody gets hurt like that.

But experience and history tells me. Sometimes when you don't know what you're doing, pipe bombs hurt people.

STU: Right. Yes.
GLENN: And sometimes when you do know what you're doing, pipe bombs hurt people.

That's the -- that's problem number one. Problem number two was, they stated they were then going to target ICE agents?

STU: Right.

GLENN: As if ICE agents aren't people?

STU: You know, Glenn, that is exactly what I came up with. I think, I've heard this statement. You mentioned the same sentiment earlier on the program. A lot of people are saying this. I guess, in their conversations that were, you know, picked off as we were going through this investigation. There were some similarities. If you think back to early environmental terrorist attacks.

ALF and ELF, some of those attacks -- not all, but some of those attacks were targeted at infrastructure, and things around the -- you know, the oil industry. But not -- you know, intentionally trying not to harm the workers or whatever.

And some of their I guess conversations back and forth echoed that sentiment. Like, let's put them this a place where people aren't going to be.

Again, I don't think that's good. I don't think of these people as heroes. But Hollywood would make movies over people like that and how wonderful and glorious they were.

But at the end, they seemed to ignore, that they had attacks planned against ICE agents. And the only way that makes logical sense is if you don't think ICE agents are people.

GLENN: Are people. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. Dehumanize. Dehumanize. Dehumanize. That's why I've been saying, we've got to stop MAID. We have to appreciate life again.

We have to stand for life. All life!

If we don't, you can just say, well, that's not really a person.

You've got to stand for life.

One more story in this, just to show you how close we are to losing Europe.

The French who aren't -- are not used to waving the white flag.

You know, they're -- they're -- they're tough. They have decided on New Year's Eve, that they are not going to hold the fireworks show, that they always hold at the art drive.

So they always have a New Year's Eve concert and fireworks show, but this year, they've decided that they're going to scrap it, wait until you hear what they were going to replace it with. But they're going to scrap it because there are security concerns such as, quote, unpredictable crowd movements.
You mean, like the crowds that are coming over on boats and coming on to your shore? You mean those crowd movements? Because, I mean, I think we know what they're saying here. They're saying that they're very concerned that there might be trouble. There might be some sort of, you know, shootings or activity or terrorists. But they're not -- they're just saying, it's unpredictable crowd movements. And so we're -- we're suggesting that we cancel the decades old fireworks celebration on New Year's Eve.

That's like canceling Times Square. Okay?

We're going to cancel that. And instead, replace it with -- this is a quote.

With a prerecorded video to be viewed in the safety and comfort of your French living room.
(laughter)

GLENN: Oh. So we're watching an old celebration.

Why not? Dick Clark. We got all those tapes of Dick Clark. Let's just cancel New Year's Eve and Times Square and just play one from 1977. I mean, who didn't love that?

STU: Not only is that completely insane. It's also a great example of why virtual school didn't work.

Right?

You know, that's not the same thing. My wife say big fan of around this time of year. Every television has the Yule log on it, you know. And at his help you. It's nice. It helps you celebrate the season, a little bit. But it's not the same as going around the fire, and feeling the heat, it's not the same.
GLENN: Right. Yeah. There's no warmth. There's no warmth. But leave it to the French to surrender. I mean, we've lost France. We've lost France.

If they're not willing to say what's going on. Look, there's terrorists here. And we're afraid of a large crowd. And we're lost, because we let too many people in here. We have no idea who they are. And they're dangerous. And they want to kill us and kill our civilization.

We're working on that, so we can have this next year.

This year, we will to have cancel it.

But they're not saying that. They're saying, you know what, watch it from home. And it will be a videotape of an old one. Oh, okay.

For a Night, We Were Human | The Christmas Truce Music Video

In the frozen trenches of World War I along the Lys River in 1914, amidst the relentless thunder of artillery, a miraculous unofficial truce unfolded on Christmas Day. British and German soldiers, weary enemies, emerged from the mud and wire to share gifts, songs, and stories of home together in the ruins. Produced by Glenn Beck in collaboration with AI, this poignant music video and original song recapture the true story of the Christmas Truce, reminding us that even in the darkest times, a single brave act or small light can awaken our shared humanity, allowing soldiers to lay down their weapons and remember they are human... just for a night.

Stay tuned at GlennBeck.com for more musical storytelling inspired by Glenn’s artifacts next year on Torch.
