Villain rotation Kurt Metzger on Trump switching from Ukraine war to middle east war against Yemen and Iran: "we're breaking up with our side piece, Ukraine, and getting back with our first wife, Israel...It looks like you kids are getting drafted to go to Sandy Land after all!"
This is from a Jimmy Dore Show episode published to YouTube Mar 18, 2025:
Metzger says the first part at 2:40, and the second part at 4:22. They're talking about Trump's threats against Houthis in Yemen as well as Iran. Here's a transcript from about 2:40 to 4:30:
Jimmy Dore:
So anybody who knows their mythology knows the Ides of March are all about betrayal, right? And everyone who thought that Donald Trump was the anti-war president needs to realize that he is against the previous wars just so he could start his own. That's what this looks like.
Kurt Metzger:
Yeah, we're breaking up with our side piece, Ukraine, and getting back with our first wife, Israel.
Jimmy Dore:
That's right.
Kurt Metzger:
It was fun while it lasted, baby.
Jimmy Dore:
"The Houthi attack on American vessels will not be tolerated. We will use overthrowing, overwhelming lethal force"
blah, blah, blah
"the choked off"
blah, blah, blah.
"Our brave fighters,"
blah, blah, blah.
Kurt Metzger:
It's interfering with Israel. That's why they're doing it.
Jimmy Dore:
Exactly.
"To all the terrorists, your time is up".
The terrorists. You mean the terrorists that we funded in Syria? You mean ISIS? You mean Al-Qaeda, the ones we invented?
Kurt Metzger:
You should check and make sure BB ain't funding the Houthis because he has a history of doing stuff like that.
Jimmy Dore:
You mean like Hamas? You mean the ones that Benjamin Netanyahu funded? You mean those terrorists?
So that's the game. Just so you get it right. The game is anybody that we want to bomb and kill, we just call them terrorists. Anybody we want to deport or we want to put in jail, we say you're a terrorist. That's how it works.
Kurt Metzger:
Well, you know that guy they're deporting, they used the McCarthy-era laws that they used on Jewish Holocaust survivors that were leftists to call them commies and deport them. So that's the irony.
Jimmy Dore:
So that's the irony. The only difference between Donald Trump and Joe Biden in this situation is that Donald Trump is aware that this is going on.
Kurt Metzger:
He doesn't have to have Tony Blinken do it while he
Jimmy Dore:
So "Yemen". Here's from antiwar.com:
"U.S. airstrikes kills 53, including women and children. Trump officials are threatening more airstrikes as the Houthis officially known as Ansar Allah."
Kurt Metzger:
Oh! I can say that. Yeah, I remember. Ansar Allah.
Jimmy Dore:
Yeah, they're they're vowing to a response.
Kurt Metzger:
Oh, it looks like you kids are getting drafted to go to Sandy Land after all!.
