Keeping you informed and Speaker 3 (0:07) engaged, now more than ever, this is Sekulow. We want to hear from you. Share and post your comments or call 1-800-684-3110. Speaker 3 (0:22) And now your host, Logan Sekula. Speaker 6 (0:25) Welcome to Sekula. We've got some breaking news coming out of the United Kingdom. A few different incidents that have happened over the last few days, but this is a big one. Another very interesting story you need to be following of what's happening really in the Western world. Phone lines are open for you at 1-800-684-3110. Of course, it is September 28th. It's Monday. We are live. That's right, live, live. So give me a call at 1-800-684-3110 if you want to be on the air today. Again, this is coming out of the UK. You may have heard the five British men in London that were arrested for terror and for a terror bomb plot. Guess what? though they clearly according there have some pretty strict regulations strict rules they have all been released on bail this is happening right now again maybe we need to give people a little background of who these suspects are Speaker 4 (1:17) and what is going on with this investigation that's right so these were five men that are british uh nationals so they are in custody or at least were in custody Over a plot that they suspect was targeting a Royal Air Force Base Fairford, and that is essentially a base that the United States has been using as a staging base as well to conduct the operations against Iran. We know that Iran had previously said no base is safe, so there are... probing the link of a potential Iran nexus. However, this was where a local farmer noticed three suspicious vehicles around 1245 a.m. is what the report is and called in a tip and said, hey, these vehicles don't look like they're supposed to be here and they're headed towards the Air Force Base. And what happens? They arrest these five individuals under the UK's Explosive Act and the Terrorism Act. However they are being and have been released on bail while they are under investigation. Don't worry the UK says they've got great restrictions monitoring them so I assume that they will not try to flee or carry out their terror further. Yeah Speaker 6 (2:36) we'll find out another story that has happened over the UK where of course that wasn't the case. We'll break that down in the next segment. It's a big issue that's happening around the world. Again, the Western world in general, not just in the United Kingdom. Again, like they said, however, men are no longer in custody. And an assistant commissioner to New Scotland Yard said they confirmed the following extensive interviews and inquiries. The five men who were arrested are being released on police bail this afternoon. They said, but to be very clear, this does not mean the investigation is over. Now, Tehran and Iran said, hey, we have nothing to do with this. How dare you say we have something to do with this? Of course, again, another spin coming out of Iran. What do you think when you hear about these situations? I want you to give me a call at 1-800-684-3110. And of course it has to do with strategic locations that America has had military operations in partnership with the UK in what? In our support of Israel. So again, it ties all back around. Speaker 6 (3:33) We're going to find out a lot more of this information as it breaks. Continue. And I think it's always important to keep our eyes on what's happening, not just in the United States of America, because really this is as much a planned attack on the United States military as it is an isolated RAF. Speaker 4 (3:49) That's right. And they took the steps also to cordon off the area. They had people evacuate from their homes as they investigated the vehicles that the men were in, suspecting they could have been vehicle explosive devices. And now it seems like the people have been able to return to their homes, but they still have a heightened protection around this RAF Fairfield as they look forward. Yeah, Speaker 6 (4:14) thank this farmer for sure. She did a great job. and making sure that people were informed about this kind of situation. Again, it's one of those see something, say something moments that sometimes you don't think has real consequences. Well, here is one that absolutely did. Once again, phone lines are open for you at 1-800-684-3110. 1-800-684-3110. We'll break that down, as well as a couple more incidents coming out of the United Kingdom, and how you can get involved as well. That's, of course, at ACLJ. My brother Jordan's going to be joining us live from Washington, D.C. in just a few minutes, so stay tuned for that. Packed second half of the show for sure with him, but I want to hear from you. That's at 1-800-684-3110. Speaker 6 (5:05) Back to Sekulow. Phone lines are open for Emory and all these comments coming in at 1-800-684-3110. You can always get your comment in also on YouTube and Rumble and all the different places we are live. But a great way to do it is to give me a call because I always like to hear from you. Makes for a far more entertaining show than us just trying to, you know, read off some comments. So again, that's at 1-800-684-3110. Talking about news coming out of the United Kingdom, this suspected terror plot as you had, I mean, again, you want to say quote unquote, yeah, suspected. They stopped these trucks and these vans full of explosives. What else were you planning on doing as they were heading towards an RAF, a Royal Air Force base that, again, also stationed Americans and was a outpost essentially for the war happening or the, what do they call it? The Speaker 5 (5:49) incursion, the ground campaign? Operation. Operation happening Speaker 6 (5:52) with Iran. And we know this. And of course. Great success in the sense of you had a farmer who noticed, again, this is outside of Oxford, England, a place Will and I have spent a long, long time at, been there many, many, many times for months on end. Though only an hour, hour 15 from the heart of London, there's a lot of farmland between Oxford, between London and Oxford. There's a lot of kind of, it's very chill, very quiet area. Of course, it's an education hub for anyone who spent time there. Lovely place. We love spending time there. However, In between, they noticed that there were some trucks or some vans that were suspicious at one o'clock in the morning. Calls in a tip. This farmer calls in a tip. They stop these people. They arrest them. They find explosives, again, headed towards a military base. But now, just a few days later, not even a few days later, all of them have been released on bail, according with some very strict guidelines, allegedly. But I think we need to, you know, somewhat remember how we do things here in America. And there needs to be some of that influencing what's going on in the Western world in general, how serious these threats are. Because we can now also look to another threat that happened in the United Kingdom that has been happening over the last few years. And this was from one of the heads of security of Hamas, who was granted not only like an asylum in the UK, but essentially granted a form of citizenship in the United Kingdom. And of course, just a year later, was Speaker 4 (7:22) involved in plotting major terrorist activity. That's right. So this was the bodyguard for the Hamas chief, Ismail Haniyeh, who is no longer a threat to anyone because he was taken out by the Israelis. But this is a very curious... story because you look at what happened overnight as well as what they're saying happened here this was an individual that was granted he applied for asylum in the UK and was ended up being given the permanent residency in the United Kingdom despite them knowing his background who he was the bodyguard for for a terrorist group and what happens I don't know he lives there for a while and then years plots terror on European Jews and Israelis because that's what Hamas does. I think it shows the entirety of the failed immigration issues that we've seen with the UK that Americans and American leadership have been calling out for a long time. Is it whether it be the nationals that were arrested over this plot over the weekend or it be them allowing... to walk in and freely have reign of the UK, one of the heads of security Speaker 6 (8:40) for Hamas. He had essentially fallen off their radar. They said it was not a priority anymore because he had been living there for a number of years, seemed to have acclimated to society. But again, when you're talking about what's going on in the last few years, all of a sudden this person starts planning not only terrorist activity, terrorist activity directed specifically at Jewish and Israeli citizens of the United Kingdom, specifically around Jewish holidays. and was picked up again i mean we're living in a very strange time here folks where this is happening and and so much so i'll be honest that i had conflated these two stories together until this morning we were prepping the show because i thought certainly there couldn't be two of these terrorist plots that were stopped and all of this that happened over the weekend but no i was wrong these are two very different things that are happening although all have to do with really one pure topic, which is either Israel, Israel's connection to America, or just the Jewish residents of the United Kingdom. By the way, one of the biggest Jewish populations in the Western world would probably be in London and the areas surrounding London, London and Manchester, and these areas where there have been thriving Jewish communities there for hundreds and hundreds of years. but they've become the target. And we need to call it out when we see it. Again, though, the five who were British nationals, which we don't know a whole lot of information on, over this Iranian bomb plot that they were essentially planning. And Iran again says, no, how dare they? It's insulting to us that you would even consider it. And of course, we heard a lot of that verbiage coming out of the UN. And when they were over here, you know, speaking, of course, to Brett Baer, whoever it may be, the president of Iran, saying almost a how dare you infer. that we have any sort of Speaker 4 (10:22) terrorist activity. That's right. And once again, as you talk about, you mentioned that Brett Baier interview where it's, no, we don't want a nuclear weapon. And of course, our Supreme Leader is able to function. I met with him for six hours the other day. I don't remember which day. Four or six weeks ago. It's the standard Iran playbook. Whether or not it was directly an IRGC plot or whether it's through proxies, the fact, one, Speaker 5 (10:50) we Speaker 4 (10:50) know Hamas is an, Iranian proxy therefore the one here about yeah the European Jews that were being targeted by one of the Hamas bodyguards yeah I think you can say it's Iranian inspired at least even if not directed because that is the end game for the Iranians is to attack the western world and to attack Israelis and Jews wherever they find them and and you start to think about this as well there was a report that a migrant caravan is headed towards the United States Right. We used to hear about these all the time during the Biden administration. The Department of Homeland Security has said we are ready for this. But when you start to think about where the world was even just four years ago, migrant caravans being able to basically just walk into the United States and those that were stopped were said, hey, come back for your court date. Maybe it never did. That was how it was operating. The criticism of the U.S. border policy was very similar to the criticism that we see of the border policies of the U.K. and of much of Europe as they have allowed kind of unfettered migration from the Middle East just to waltz into the European realm. And what happens? You see these types of things start to tick back up. And when you start to think also about the world that we've lived in where we haven't fortunately seen a bunch of terror attacks that are striking in the heart of some of the best cities in the world, New York, London, Berlin, all these places that you were seeing multiple attempts at Islamic terror, that has been quiet for some time. But don't believe that it will be that way forever. And that's what I think you have to start realizing now is that, yes, these policies do have consequences. And I'm thankful that a migrant caravan that is headed towards the United
