Cal Thomas ladies and gentlemen not unsteady -- right here with me right cannot exchange thank you for being -- -- by the way if you do YouTube and put my name.

And Julie Andrews you'll see.

This outfit when I interviewed her on my old.

After our show on fox many moons ago she's so California and spectacularly if you were dressed appropriately for that interview my guys and -- -- -- -- so over the weekend on my Sunday show I had the privilege of watching the -- pack.

Conference.

Shimon Peres.

Said.

That.

President Obama is a -- -- You know on faltering.

Ally of Israel.

He seemed really confident that we have Israel's back in fact President Obama then spoke to a -- and said.

-- us we do in fact we're investigating.

New capabilities.

We think of the relationship in house and media handling it.

Well it's always been a strained relationship not only with this administration but in previous ones as well because it begins with a they -- it basically flawed premise Jamie that is that.

Whatever Israel does affects what everybody else does and that's just not factual it's not historic.

Every time Israel has given up more land major concession sign documents and agreements made pledges.

The other side the Palestinian side the Arab side.

Never reciprocate.

And we have seen this pattern played out over many administrations and many years and yet in the media continues to promote.

This fiction that somehow if Israel will just give up more -- Which many including the New York Times believes.

-- occupies illegally then that will pacify those who have said and continued to say openly and with regularity.

That's the Jewish people deserve to be extinct because they are descended from apes monkeys.

And pigs.

And that they are the cause of aids and that -- their god come off.

Wants them -- this is behind Ahmadinejad said nuclear program he says it openly.

Not some point you would think that those people in the State Department would say you know.

After proving this over and over and over again whether terrorist attacks there five wars that they've launched against Israel can maybe -- actually telling the truth.

But you don't get that in a much of the media I'm sorry to say.

And -- does not our friend where Iran is concerned because.

Look whether they're building an enriching.

For.

Causes of just electricity which they would like this to believe they're really moving toward a bomb I mean personally they could I believe they may have even already -- capability.

Now why are we allowing all this time to go by without.

President Obama says diplomacy could still work Wesley set -- a meeting already.

Yeah well -- -- over to close to Saint Patrick's Day maybe they'll find the -- -- the -- at the end of the -- maybe but I wouldn't count on it.

Any more than I would account on on this working -- and you've got to have you've got to have some proof.

That diplomacy has worked on what does diplomacy mean more sanctions -- the Russians and Chinese are living up.

To the sanctions.

More time well this just gives us we've seen with North Korea more time to do what they have been doing anyway.

I think one of the problems is that most of the media had a lot of our diplomats don't understand.

The concept of evil.

They understand that intellectually.

But they -- don't understand -- fundamentally.

Evil exist and existed with Hitler fitting system was Stalin it exist it would -- and it exists in fundamentalist radical Islam.

This is the new fascism communism all rolled into one but unlike those other two philosophies.

This one is religiously based those other guys are basically atheists.

These people actually believe that they kill you and themselves at the same time then they're gonna go to heaven -- all the virgins in the things and everything they really believe that.

Now you can call -- crazy but crazy with a nuclear bomb is dangerous.

And in fact Shimon Peres said people he actually said Iran is -- -- Got to leave it there go to break good to see it -- even a little amount of time with Cal Thomas is a good time and he can always catch -- on FOX News Watch an.

11:30 PM definitely don't miss it it is a fiery debate.

Over how the media handles everything and I can't wait to hear what you guys think about Super Tuesday thanks cal thanks Jamie.
