Pirro: What should we do? Send in more troops to protect sacrifices already made? Cut a deal with the devil, Iran?
Brand: Iran is not the devil, and referring to them as such is incendiary and provocative. She’s talking about the situation in Iraq, she’s judged Iran to be in league with Satan or even the embodiment of Satan…
Pirro: The ISIS assault, the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria, signals the beginning of the reverse crusade. They are coming for us. To THEM, WE are the infidels.
Brand: Hold on. They’re not (laughs). They’re not coming. Also it’s interesting the way she said “to THEM, WE are the infidels” meaning that she regards them as infidels! Which means unclean, disconnected from God. Don’t try to counter religious extremism with religious extremism.
Pirro: Americans have shed enough blood there. My resolution? Airstrikes. Bomb them, bomb them, keep bombing them, bomb them again and again!
Brand: Fucking hell, Justice Judge Jeanine! Bomb them? She’s pointing and everything, “Bomb them!” When they do these bombings, it creates more insurgents. That’s what creates them. Don’t think of them as going down there and destroying stuff. Think of it as like a seed that goes into the ground and grows insurgents out of it.
Pirro: ISIS is a radical religious terrorist organisation.
Brand: So is Fox News. It’s a fanatical terrorist propagandist organisation. This isn’t reasonable, is it? The way she’s talking: “Bomb them! Bomb them!” She’s worse. You know when you see those videos of someone with like a (face mask) on and a rifle, going, “(imitates Arabic) Bomb them! Bomb them!” you go “fuckin’ hell, they’re a bit heavy” – she’s doing it, she’s just doing it with a city backdrop! She’s the savage. She’s totally espousing savage values.
