WELCOME TO THE 700 CLUB AND

THANKS SO MUCH FOR JOINING WITH

US.

TWO MONTHS AFTER THE MASSACRE

ON OCTOBER 7TH, ISRAELI DEFENSE

FORCES ARE MAKING MAJOR

PROGRESS MISSION TO DESTROY

HAMAS.

OVER THE PAST DAY THEY STRUCK

450 TARGETS.

THEY ALSO CAPTURED OF SUSPECTED

TERRORISTS.

FRICTION IS BUILDING BETWEEN

UNITED STATES AND ISRAEL OVER

THE INCREASING NUMBER OF

PALESTINIANS CASUALTIES.

PAUL STRAND BRINGS US THE STORY

FROM JERUSALEM.

FIGHTERS OF THE IDF AND THE

SHIN BET ARRESTED AND

INTERROGATED HUNDREDS SUSPECTED

OF INVOLVEMENT IN TERROR OVER

THE PAST DAY.

MANY ALSO SURRENDERED THE

INTELLIGENCE WE HAD GATHERING

DURING THE INTERROGATIONS.

SERVES US DURING THE

CONTINUATION OF THE FIGHTING.

THE INTELLIGENCE GATHERED

MAY WELL HELP THE IDF KNOW MORE

ABOUT THE 138 HOSTAGES STILL

INSIDE GAZA.

THE IDF ALSO ANNOUNCED KILLED

TWO HIGH RANKING HAMAS

INTELLIGENCE TERRORISTS.

IT ALSO ANNOUNCED HAMAS IS

REPORTEDLY FIRING ROCKETS OUT

OF SAFE ZONES.

THE IDF ALSO INCLUDED KHAN

YUNIS, THE SECOND LARGEST CITY

IN GAZA AS PART OF ITS

EVACUATION ZONE AMID THE

INTENSE FIGHTING.

U.S. PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN CALLED

ISRAELI MINISTER BENJAMIN

NETANYAHU AND JORDAN'S KING

ABDULLAH TO TO INCREASE

HUMANITARIAN ASSISTANCE TO THE

CIVILIANS IN GAZA.

HE EMPHASIZED CRITICAL NEED TO

PROTECT CIVILIANS, PROVIDE

CORRIDORS TO SAFE ZONES,

SEPARATE THEM FROM HAMAS.

IN TALKING TO REPORTERS AFTER

MEETING WITH WITH THE UNITED

KINGDOM FOREIGN SECRETARY DAVID

CAMERON, THE U.S. SECRETARY OF

STATE GAVE HIS STRONGEST PUBLIC

CRITICISM YET OF ISRAEL'S

MILITARY OPERATIONS SOUTH GAZA

WITH REUTERS REPORTING HE SAID

THERE WAS A GAP BETWEEN

ISRAEL'S INTENTION OF

PROTECTING CIVILIANS AND THE

NUMBER OF CASUALTIES.

BUT THE ISRAELI DEFENSE FORCES

REPORT THAT HAMAS IS LAUNCHING

ROCKETS INSIDE HUMANITARIAN

ZONES THAT HAVE BEEN

ESTABLISHED TO GIVE A SAFE

REFUGE.

AND ANOTHER CHALLENGE FOR

ISRAEL IS THAT HAMAS USES ITS

OWN PEOPLE AS HUMAN SHIELDS.

ISRAEL SAYS IT'S SUPPLYING AID

AND PROVIDED GAZANS WITH MAPS

TO GET AWAY FROM THE FIGHTING.

STILL, ISRAEL SAYS IT'S WORKING

TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF AID

TRUCKS GOING INTO GAZA.

BEYOND GAZA, MORE ATTACKS.

EARLY FRIDAY MORNING THE U.S.

EMBASSY IN BAGHDAD WAS HIT BY A

ROCKET ATTACK THE FIRST ATTACK

SINCE THE BEGINNING OF THE

ISRAEL-HAMAS WAR.

THERE WERE NO CASUALTIES.

AND PRIME MINISTER NETANYAHU

WARNED HEZBOLLAH THAT IF IT

STARTED AN ALL OUT WAR ISRAEL

WOULD TURN BEIRUT AND SOUTH

LEBANON INTO GAZA WHILE

ENCOURAGING ISRAELI FORCES.

WE DETERMINED TO BRING VICTORY

AND WE WILL DO IT WITH YOUR

HELP.

NOW THE FOCUS REMAINS ON

ISRAEL'S ASSAULT ON HAMAS IN

GAZA WITH, INTERNATIONAL

PRESSURE GROWING FOR ISRAEL TO

FINISH THE JOB.

THE STRAND CBS NEWS JERUSALEM.

IN MY OPINION THE PRESSURE

SHOULD BE PUT ON HAMAS NOT ON

ISRAEL.

IF HAMAS CONCERNED ABOUT THE

CITIZENS OF GAZA, ABOUT THE

CHILDREN WELL THE NUMBER ONE

THEY NEED TO STOP FIRING

ROCKETS THAT IS AN ABSOLUTE IF

YOU'RE GOING TO CONTINUE TO

ATTACK ISRAEL YOU CAN'T THEN

BLAME ISRAEL FOR RESPONDING TO

THOSE ATTACKS.

THE SECOND THING THEY SHOULD DO

THEY SHOULD UNCONDITIONALLY

SURRENDER, GIVE THEMSELVES UP

FOR THE SAKE OF THE CHILDREN OF

GAZA.

THAT IS WHERE THE PRESSURE

SHOULD COME AND THAT'S WHERE

THE INTERNATIONAL PRESSURE

SHOULD COME.

THEY ARE QUITE CLEARLY

GUILTY OF CRIMES, WAR CRIMES

AND WHAT THEY DID OCTOBER 7TH

AND THEY NEED TO BE HELD

ACCOUNTABLE.

WELL, DR. OPHIR FALK IS A

FOREIGN POLICY ADVISER TO PRIME

MINISTER BENJAMIN NETANYAHU

JOINS US NOW FOR MORE FROM TEL

.

SO LET'S TALK ABOUT THIS

GROWING INTERNATIONAL PRESSURE

ON ISRAEL ADMINISTRATION AND

THE UNITED NATIONS ARE NOW

PUTTING PRESSURE TO LIMIT

CIVILIAN CASUALTIES BUT ALL

TIME HAMAS SEEMS TO BE PLACING

THEM IN HARM'S WAY.

CAN ISRAEL DO ABOUT THE

SITUATION?

WELL, THANK YOU FOR HAVING

ME.

OF COURSE ISRAEL SEEKS TO

MINIMIZE CIVILIAN CASUALTIES

OUR STRATEGY.

THAT'S OUR COUNTERTERRORISM

STRATEGY FOR OVER 75 YEARS.

WE SEEK TO MINIMIZE CIVILIAN

NOT ONLY BECAUSE IT'S THE RIGHT

THING TO DO BECAUSE IT'S, IT'S

THE EFFECTIVE THING TO DO.

ON THE OTHER HAND, HAMAS SEEKS

MAXIMIZE CIVILIAN CASUALTIES

NOT ONLY BECAUSE IT'S A SICK

GENOCIDAL TERRORIST BUT BECAUSE

THEY SEE THAT AS AN EFFECTIVE

PROPAGANDA TOOL AND COERCING

ISRAEL TO STOP THE WAR TO GET A

CEASE FIRE AND TO GET INTO AND

TO AND TO GO FOR FOR ANOTHER

WAR AFTER THEY REGROUP.

THAT'S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN.

PRIME MINISTER NETANYAHU'S

WAR CABINET DEFINE THE MISSION

OF THIS WAR.

IT DIRECTED THE IDF TO DESTROY

HAMAS TO DESTROY HAMAS SO THAT

THEY WILL NEVER TO ATTACK

ISRAEL OR ANYBODY ELSE EVER

AGAIN AND TO FREE OUR HOSTAGES.

THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT THE IDF IS

DOING AS WE SPEAK RIGHT NOW

DESTROYING HAMAS AND WE'RE

DOING EVERYTHING WE CAN TO FREE

THE HOSTAGES.

LET'S TURN TO THE U.N. THE

SECRETARY GENERAL IS IS INVOKED

A RARELY USED RESOLUTION

CALLING FOR A CEASE FIRE.

AND ISRAEL'S FOREIGN

MINISTER HAS NOW ACCUSED

SECRETARY OF ANTI-SEMITISM.

WHAT IS WHAT IS WHAT WHAT'S

YOUR PREDICTION OF WHAT'S GOING

TO HAPPEN AT THE U.N.?

WELL, ISRAEL IS ACTUALLY

QUITE ACCUSTOMED TO THE GENERAL

SECRETARY'S DOUBLE STANDARDS

THAT HE SETS FOR ISRAEL.

BUT IN REALITY ISRAEL HAS SET

THE STANDARD FOR MINIMIZING

CIVILIAN.

THE RATIO OF UNINTENDED DEATHS

AS TO TERRORIST DEATHS IS THE

LOWEST AND IN THE LOWEST

ACTUALLY I THINK IN IN MODERN

MILITARY HISTORY.

AND WE SAID THE IDF SETS THE

STANDARD AND IN THAT RESPECT

THE U.N. WOULD BE VERY HELPFUL

IF THEY FULFILL THEIR CHARTER

AND WITH HUMANITARIAN AID.

IT'S ALREADY BEEN MORE THAN 60

DAYS AND THEY HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE

TO TO VERY MANY TENTS IN THE

SAFER ZONES THAT WE HAVE

ESTABLISHED FOR THE CIVILIANS

FOR THE CIVILIAN POPULATION

THAT WE HAVE URGED.

WE URGED THEM TO GET OUT OF

HARM'S WAY.

WE'VE GIVEN THEM PRIOR NOTICE.

THERE AREN'T VERY MANY IF ANY

MILITARIES ON EARTH THAT WOULD

GIVE NOTICE BEFORE THEY ATTACK.

AND WE WE'VE GIVEN NOTICE TO

ALL OF THE CIVILIAN POPULATION

IN TO GET OUT OF HARM'S WAY AND

THEN TO SAFER ZONES.

WE WOULD APPRECIATE IF THE U.N.

WOULD AND THE UNWRA PEOPLE FILL

THERE TO THEIR DUTY AND TO HELP

CIVILIANS.

LET'S TALK ABOUT DUTY.

RED CROSS HAS BEEN CRITICIZED

FOR BY ISRAEL FOR NOT TO THE

HOSTAGES.

IT'S IN THE IN THE RECENT DAYS

IT'S IT'S IT JUST SEEMS TO BE

IGNORED THAT THEIR ISRAELI IN

THE HANDS OF HAMAS.

WHAT'S YOUR MESSAGE TO THE RED

CROSS WELL MY MESSAGE TO THE

RED CROSS AND ACTUALLY TO

ANYBODY ANY COUNTRY AND ANY

PERSON OF MORAL STANDING TO

DEMAND THE IMMEDIATE AND

CONDITIONAL RELEASE OF ALL THE

HOSTAGES IMMEDIATELY.

THESE HAMAS SAVAGES ATTACKED

ISRAEL ON OCTOBER MURDERING

OVER A THOUSAND MEN, WOMEN AND

CHILDREN, BEHEADING CHILDREN,

BURNING BABIES ALIVE, WOMEN

OVER AND OVER AGAIN BEFORE

MURDERING AND TAKING OVER

HUNDRED CIVILIANS HOSTAGE.

THEY TOOK THOSE SHOULD BE

RELEASED IMMEDIATELY,

UNCONDITIONALLY.

THE RED CROSS SHOULD VISIT THE

HOSPITAL HOSTAGES AT THE VERY

MINIMAL THAT IS THEIR DUTY.

IT'S ACTUALLY PART OF THE

AGREEMENT THAT WAS REACHED

BETWEEN THE SIDES AND THAT

PENDING AND THAT PENDING SHOULD

BE SHOULD BE ABIDED BY.

WELL, LET'S TALK ABOUT.

IT'S BEEN REPORTED THAT ISRAEL

IS PLANNING TO FLOOD THE

TUNNELS IN GAZA.

IS THE IDF GOING TO GO WITH

THAT PLAN AND AND IF SO, WHAT

ABOUT THOSE HOSTAGES?

COULD THEY BE IN HARM'S WAY?

WELL, CLEARLY I CAN'T GET

INTO ANY DETAILS OF WHAT THE

IDF WILL OR WILL NOT DO.

WHAT I CAN TELL YOU IS THAT THE

IDF WILL DESTROY HAMAS.

THE IDF DESTROYING HAMAS AS AS

WE SPEAK RIGHT NOW.

THE IDF DO EVERYTHING POSSIBLE

TO FREE THE HOSTAGES.

TWO MISSIONS ARE NOT MUTUALLY

EXCLUSIVE.

WE'VE ALREADY BEEN ABLE TO FREE

110 HOSTAGES.

IF YOU WERE TO TALK ME TWO

MONTHS AGO OR TO ANYBODY TWO

MONTHS AGO, I DON'T THINK

ANYBODY OR VERY FEW PEOPLE

WOULD HAVE TOLD YOU THAT TEN

FREED HOSTAGES WOULD BE

SOMETHING POSSIBLE.

THANKFULLY, THANK GOD WE'VE

BEEN ABLE FREE 110 HOSTAGES AND

THAT HAS BEEN THE RESULT OF.

IDF PRESSURE AND MORE PRESSURE

AND MORE PRESSURE WILL BE PUT

ON ON ON HAMAS TO FREE THE

HOSTAGES.

AND APPRECIATE THE THE

ASSISTANCE GIVEN BY THE UNITED

STATES IN THAT MATTER AS WELL

THAT THE PRESIDENT OF THE

UNITED STATES ACTUALLY

PERSONALLY INTERVENED IN THE IN

THE HOSTAGE NEGOTIATIONS

ASSISTED IN THAT IN THAT

MATTER.

WELL, WE STAND WITH YOU AND

WILL CONTINUE TO STAND WITH YOU

UNTIL.

HAMAS IS ABSOLUTELY DESTROYED.

THAT SHOULD NO LONGER EXIST AND

WHATEVER MEASURES NEED TO BE

TAKEN TO ENSURE THAT FOR THE

LONG TERM PEACE AND SECURITY

NOT JUST OF ISRAEL BUT OF THE

ENTIRE REGION.

WE APPLAUD YOU AND PLEASE

CONTINUE ON UNTIL THAT GOAL IS

ACHIEVED.

DR. FALK, THANKS FOR BEING

WITH US.

THANK YOU.

THANK YOU FOR THE GREAT

SUPPORT.

THANK YOU GUYS.

THANK YOU.

A FEDERAL GRAND JURY IN

CALIFORNIA INDICTED HUNTER

BIDEN ON NINE COUNTS ACCUSING

OF FAILING TO PAY HIS TAXES ON

MILLIONS OF DOLLARS HE FROM

FOREIGN BUSINESS VENTURES.

THE INDICTMENT ALLEGES A FOUR

YEAR SCHEME INVOLVING MILLIONS

IN UNPAID SELF-ASSESSED TAXES,

FALSE TAX RETURNS AND A LAVISH

LIFESTYLE.

IT ALSO DIRECTLY ADDRESSES

BIDEN'S DOCUMENTED DRUG ISSUES

WHICH FACTOR INTO THE COLLAPSE

OF A POTENTIAL PLEA DEAL THAT

OFFERED HIM BROAD IMMUNITY FROM

FUTURE PROSECUTION.

SPECIAL COUNSEL DAVID WHITE

SAID IN A STATEMENT.

HUNTER BIDEN SPENT MILLIONS OF

DOLLARS ON AN EXTRAVAGANT

LIFESTYLE RATHER THAN PAYING

HIS TAX BILLS.

A MAN FIRED A SHOTGUN TWICE

OUTSIDE A JEWISH TEMPLE IN THE

STATE CAPITAL OF ALBANY, NEW

YORK THURSDAY HOURS BEFORE THE

START.

HE THEN SAID FREE PALESTINE AS

HE WAS TAKEN INTO CUSTODY

ACCORDING TO POLICE.

NO ONE WAS INJURED.

THE INCIDENT TOOK PLACE AMID

RISING FEARS OF ANTI-SEMITIC

DISSENT WORLDWIDE DURING THE

ISRAEL-HAMAS WAR.

THE MAYOR OF ALBANY REASSURING

CITIZENS THE CITY IS WORKING TO

PROVIDE PROTECTION.

THE CHIEF SAID THE EPISODE WAS

BEING INVESTIGATED A HATE

CRIME.

AND AS WE MENTIONED THURSDAY

MARKED THE FIRST NIGHT OF

HANUKKAH.

AND AS CHRIS MITCHELL REPORTS

FROM JERUSALEM, IT'S A

CELEBRATION OF HOW THE JEWISH

PEOPLE OVERCAME A WICKED RULER

AND EXPERIENCED A MIRACLE OF

LIGHT MORE THAN 2000 YEARS AGO

.

HANUKKAH, ALSO KNOWN AS THE

FESTIVAL OF LIGHTS COMMEMORATES

THE REDEDICATION OF THE SECOND

TEMPLE IN JERUSALEM BY JUDAH

AND WERE STANDING OPPOSITE THE

WESTERN WALL THE TEMPLE MOUNT

IS WHERE THE SECOND TEMPLE

STOOD AND AT THAT TIME PERIOD

THE JEWISH PEOPLE WERE LIVING

HERE AS A JEWISH PEOPLE WITH

THE JEWISH TEMPLE AND THE GREEK

EMPIRE WAS WAS TAKEN OVER THE

WHOLE ENTIRE WORLD AND THEY

DECIDED TO IMPOSE THEIR

HELLENISTIC VIEWS ONTO THE

RESIDENTS OF ISRAEL SAYING YOU

MUST LIVE IN THIS HELLENISTIC

LIFESTYLE?

THE GREEKS BANNED JEWISH

PRACTICES AND THEIR RULER

ANTIOCHUS EPIPHANIES DESECRATED

THE TEMPLE.

THE OUTNUMBERED MACCABEES

REBELLED AND DEFEATED THE

RULERS OF THE KNOWN WORLD.

THE MIRACLE OF HANUKKAH CAME

WHEN THE MACCABEES WENT TO

REDEDICATE THE TEMPLE WHILE

ONLY ONE DAY'S CONSECRATED

REMAINED.

IT MIRACULOUSLY LASTED FOR

EIGHT.

IT WAS A TIME OF DARKNESS.

WE WERE SURROUNDED BY MUCH

LARGER ARMIES AND ENEMIES BUT

WE STOOD UP FOR WHAT WAS FOR

THOSE VALUES THAT THIS TEMPLE

MOUNT REPRESENTS.

AND EVENTUALLY WE WON.

AND THE STORY OF OUR VICTORY IS

THAT WE'RE BACK HERE THAT THE

STORY OF THE JEWISH PEOPLE IS

STILL GOING ON HERE AT THE

WESTERN WALL AS ONE OF THE

MAJOR PUBLIC LIGHTINGS OF THE

HANUKKAH HANUKKAH IS CELEBRATED

LIKE IT IS EVERY YEAR IN

JERUSALEM.

BUT YEAR IS DIFFERENT WITH THE

MEMORIES OF THE HORRORS OF

OCTOBER 7TH AND THE ANGUISH OF

THE MANY HOSTAGES STILL

REMAINING IN CAPTIVITY IN THE

GAZA STRIP, ALL 138 HOSTAGES

STILL IN HAMAS'S HANDS AND A

CANDLE LIT FOR THEM.

WE FEEL ESPECIALLY IN IN

AMERICA RIGHT NOW VERY

UNCERTAIN NOW OF OUR SAFETY AND

OUR FUTURE.

SO IT'S OBVIOUSLY MUCH MORE

HEARTFELT THAN I THINK I'VE

EVER HAD CHRONICLES IN MY MY

LIFE.

THIS HANUKKAH IS MORE SPECIAL

BECAUSE I FEEL LIKE WE'RE

RELIVING WHAT HAPPENED

THOUSANDS OF YEARS AGO WITH THE

ANTI SEMITISM IN THE WORLD WITH

WHAT HAPPENED HERE IN OCTOBER.

AND THAT THIS IS SOMETHING THAT

HAS TO UNITE THE JEWISH PEOPLE.

THE BOTTOM LINE IS THAT WE

SAY ALLAH NEEDS NISSIM ON THE

MIRACLES THAT WE SEE THEN AND

WE WE SEE NOW THESE MIRACLES

WILL CONTINUE TO HAPPEN BECAUSE

THIS THIS IS WHY THAT'S WHAT IT

WAS ALL ABOUT.

REMEMBER HANUKKAH COMES AT THE

TIME IT'S THE DARKEST TIME OF

THE YEAR.

SO THE DARKEST TIME OF THE YEAR

WE BRING LIGHT HERE IN

JERUSALEM'S OLD CITY THE KIDS

ARE LIT OUTSIDE THE BUILDING.

HERE YOU SEE A HANUKKAH FOR

EACH FAMILY IN THIS BUILDING.

LIT OUTSIDE AND MEANT TO BE LIT

OUTSIDE FOR TWO REASONS TO

PUBLICIZE THE MIRACLE AND

DISPEL THE DARKNESS.

AS JEWS WORLDWIDE BEGIN THE

HANUKKAH HOLIDAY A SIGN OF

INTERNATIONAL SUPPORT, GERMAN

CHANCELLOR OLAF LIT THE FIRST

CANDLE OF A PUBLIC MENORAH AT

THE BRANDENBURG BRIGADE THE

FIRST TIME A GERMAN LEADER HAS

TAKEN PART IN THE CEREMONY.

JUST LISTEN TO JESUS.

I WISH THAT THE CANDLE OF

HANUKKAH WILL SHINE FAR BEYOND

THIS SQUARE MUCH LONGER THAN

JUST FOR THE EIGHT DAYS OF

HANUKKAH.

HANUKKAH STANDS FOR HOPE AND.

BOTH ARE SPECIALLY NEEDED

THESE DAYS.

THIS HANUKKAH IS OBVIOUSLY

EXTRA SPECIAL BECAUSE OURSELVES

IN A TIME PERIOD HERE IN ISRAEL

BUT REALLY ACROSS THE WORLD

WHERE PEOPLE ARE FIGHTING THE

JEWISH LIKE THEY'RE HATING JEWS

WITHOUT EVEN KNOWING THE FACTS.

THEY'RE HATING BECAUSE THEY'RE

JEWS.

AND THAT'S WHAT WE'RE

STANDING UP TO FIGHT AGAINST.

BECAUSE THIS YEAR MANY JEWS

LIGHT THE CANDLES FOR THE ONES

THEY CALL THE MODERN DAY

MACCABEES ON LINES IN GAZA.

AND FOR THOSE IN DARKNESS WHO

CAN'T OWN.

CHRIS MITCHELL, CBN NEWS,

WESTERN WALL JERUSALEM.

GREAT TO SEE PEOPLE STANDING

WITH ISRAEL DURING HANUKKAH AND

ALSO TO SEE THE GERMAN THERE

LIGHTING THE PUBLIC MENORAH.

GORDON WELL IT'S HISTORIC

AND THERE'S A REASON IT'S

HISTORIC.

IT'S FOR SUCH A TIME AS THIS

WE'VE ALL BEEN CALLED TO STAND

WITH ISRAEL EXACTLY AT THIS

MOMENT IN TIME.

MY WIFE CATHERINE AND I, WE

CELEBRATED LAST NIGHT.

WE LIT THE TWO CANDLES.

WE PRAYED THE THREE BLESSINGS.

THE THIRD BLESSING IS SIGNIFY

PART OF OUR CELEBRATION LAST

NIGHT WAS THE PSALMS THAT ARE

TRADITIONALLY SUNG DURING

HANUKKAH THE FIRST DAY OF

LESLIE FRAZIER IS A TWO TIME

SUPER BOWL CHAMPION.

HE'S ALSO BEEN AN NFL HEAD AND

DEFENSIVE COORDINATOR FOR THE

PAST 24 YEARS.

THIS SEASON HE'S ON SABBATICAL

AND HE TOLD SPORTS REPORTER

DEERING WHY HE CHOSE TO TAKE A

BREAK FROM FOOTBALL.

LESLIE FRAZIER'S LONG

SUCCESSFUL NFL PLAYING AND

COACHING CAREER HAD NEARLY SEEN

IT ALL UNTIL WATCHING ONE OF

HIS PLAYERS DAMAR HAMLIN SUFFER

NEAR-FATAL COLLAPSE ON MONDAY

NIGHT FOOTBALL.

SO MANY GOOD CAME OUT OF

THAT EXPERIENCE AFTERWARD BUT.

AT THE TIME IT WAS STRESSFUL.

NONE OF US HAD EVER EXPERIENCED

ANYTHING LIKE.

AS THE BUFFALO BILLS

DEFENSIVE COORDINATOR AND

ASSISTANT HEAD COACH LESLIE HAD

A DIRECT LOOK AND PERSPECTIVE

TO THIS STUNNING AND EVENTUAL

RECOVERY.

JANUARY SECOND DAMAR

HAMLIN'S ON FIELD CARDIAC

ARREST WITH THE NATION

WATCHING.

WHERE WERE YOU?

SO YEAH I CAN GIVE IT TO HIM

LIKE IT WAS YESTERDAY.

YOU KNOW I'M STANDING ON THE

ON THE SIDELINE AND I'M

THINKING THROUGH STRATEGY TO

SOME THAT CINCINNATI IS DOING

IT AND I'M THINKING THAT DEMAR

IS GOING TO GET UP SHORTLY AND

IT'LL HELP HIM OFF THE FIELD

AND MAYBE HE'LL COME BACK BUT

HE DIDN'T GET UP.

THEN I SEE OUR TRAINER

BECKONING THE REST OF US TO

COME ON THE FIELD.

THIS IS PRETTY SERIOUS.

SOMEONE WAS TELLING ME THAT

HE'S DYING AND I'M REALLY JUST

BEGAN PRAYING, YOU KNOW, RIGHT

DOWN THE FIELD AND THEN WE ALL

KIND OF GET ON A KNEE JUST

PRAYING.

JUST PRAYING THAT GOD WOULD

SAVE HIM AS A COACH AND AND

THAT MOMENT.

WHERE DOES YOUR MESSAGE GO?

STILL SO MANY UNKNOWNS AND TIME

OUR HEAD COACH SEAN MCDERMOTT

WANTED TO GO TO THE HOSPITAL.

I WAS THE ASSISTANT HEAD COACH

SO I WAS IN CHARGE OF THE TEAM

WHILE HE WAS GONE JUST GIVING

HIM INFORMATION ABOUT WHAT WAS

HAPPENING AT THE HOSPITAL

WASN'T ENOUGH.

THEY LIKE ME WANTED AND THE

ONE THING THAT I COULD SHARE

WITH THEM THIS IS IN GOD'S

HANDS NOW WE'RE ALL BELIEVING

THAT DEMAR IS GOING TO COME

THROUGH.

HE'S GOING TO SURVIVE, HE'S

GOING TO LIVE.

WE'RE GOING TO PUT OUR TRUST IN

CHRIST.

HE'S GOING TO COME OUT OF

THIS IS GOING TO WORK OUT AND

IT DID DID WE SEE A WILLINGNESS

TO CONSIDER THINGS THAT

NORMALLY AREN'T CONSIDERED LIKE

PRAYER?

YEAH, I I MEAN I SAW PEOPLE

DON'T EVER TALK ABOUT SPEARS OF

BEING SAYING LET'S PRAY FOR

TOMORROW AND THEN PEOPLE ALL

OVER THE COUNTRY WHO WERE AT

ODDS ABOUT DIFFERENT THINGS

COMING TOGETHER TO PRAY FOR

DEMAR AND HIS

BEAUTIFUL TO SEE AS A COUNTRY

WE LOVE ONE ANOTHER WHEN WE'RE

GALVANIZED BY A CERTAIN.

I LOVE MARK.

JUST REALLY PROUD OF HIM AND

PROUD OF WHAT GOD IS DOING IN

HIS LIFE.

I MEAN HE'S IMPACTED SO MANY IN

OUR COUNTRY AND IN THE WORLD.

AFTER FOUR SEASONS AS A HEAD

COACH, ASSISTANT COACH AND

PRIZED DEFENSIVE THE TWO TIME

SUPER BOWL CHAMPION AND BLACK

COLLEGE FOOTBALL HALL OF FAME

RECIPIENT DECIDED TO TAKE A

SABBATICAL AFTER A UNIQUELY

CHALLENGING YEAR.

WHAT DID THIS SABBATICAL BRING

YOU PERSONALLY AND ALSO AS A

COACH?

YOU KNOW IT'S BEEN

REFRESHING TOM IN SO MANY WAYS

I'VE GOT A CHANCE TO EXPERIENCE

SOME THINGS THAT I WOULDN'T

HAVE.

THERE IS LIFE BEYOND

COACHING.

YOU'RE SO FOCUSED ON WHAT YOU

HAVE TO GET DONE THAT YOU CAN

LOSE SIGHT OF WHAT'S GOING

WORLD.

BUT THIS IS KIND OF HELPED ME

TO KIND OF RESET AND GIVEN IT

TO CHRIST TAKING IT TO THE

THRONE.

WHAT IS THE RECIPE FOR A

CONSISTENT DEFENSE IN NFL?

IT'S A PASSING LEAGUE.

THE COLLEGE GAME HAS COME TO

THE PRO GAME WITH THE RUN PASS

OPTION TO MOBILE QUARTERBACK.

SO YOUR ABILITY AS A COACH

TO ADJUST TO THE TRENDS WILL

ALLOW YOU TO HAVE SUSTAINED

SUCCESS.

AND SO IF YOU'RE WILLING TO PUT

YOUR EGO BEHIND YOU AND TAKE A

REAL HARD LOOK AT WHERE THE

GAME IS GOING YOU'VE GOT TO BE

ABLE TO PIVOT.

IF YOU DON'T, I THINK YOU GET

LEFT BEHIND AND THE GAME WILL

PASS YOU BY.

FATHERLESSNESS DOES THAT HAPPEN

TO YOU AS A COACH NOW MORE THAN

EVER.

OH ABSOLUTELY TOM I RECEIVE

A TON OF TON OF TEXT MESSAGES

FROM PLAYERS AND FORMER PLAYERS

AND MAJORITY OF THE GUYS IN OUR

LEAGUE.

THEY COME FROM SINGLE PARENT

HOMES.

YOU FORGET AS A BLACK MALE

COACH THE IMPACT THAT YOU CAN

HAVE.

IT DEFINITELY SPEAKS TO THE

IMPORTANCE OF STRONG LEADERS OF

COLOR AND POSITION WHEN THE

MAJORITY OF OUR TEAMS ARE A

MINORITY TO BE IN THAT ROLE OF

LEADERSHIP MATTERS A GREAT DEAL

ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU'RE WALKING

IN A DIFFERENT WAY THAN A WORLD

DOES.

IS SPIRITUAL HEART OF A MAN

OR WOMAN IS THAT UNDER

ESTIMATED AND ULTIMATELY WHAT

THEY BRING AS A A COMPETITOR?

I DO THINK IT'S

UNDERESTIMATED.

I'M GLAD YOU ASKED ME.

WE WANT TO BE THE VERY BEST

AT WHAT DO.

I'VE BEEN ON SOME VERY

SUCCESSFUL TEAMS.

TOM AND THAT GROUP OF GUYS THAT

WERE BELIEVERS THEY WERE AS

FIERCE A COMPETITOR AS ANYONE

ON OUR TEAM THEY WANTED TO

SUCCEED.

I THINK THAT SPIRITUAL REALLY

MATTERS THAT SUPERSEDES AND

LOSSES.

THE JESUS WIZARD I MEAN IT WAS

NOT AS SOLID ABOUT A MAN WHO

SACRIFICED NAILED THE CROSS SO

THAT WE WOULD HAVE A LIFE

POTENTIAL OF A RETURN.

WHAT IS AND FOR YOU BEING

ABLE TO ACCOMPLISH A LOT AS A

COACH BUT BEYOND THAT REALLY

BEING ABLE TO HAVE AN IMPACT ON

OUR PLAYERS I WERE TO GO BACK.

YOU GET TO THE POINT IN TIME

WHERE PLAYERS DON'T WANT TO LET

YOU DOWN BECAUSE THEY KNOW WHAT

YOU GONE THROUGH AS A BLACK

COACH TO GET TO WHERE YOU ARE

MAKING SURE THAT THEY KNOW THAT

I LOVE THEM AND I'M GOING TO

ALWAYS PUT THEM IN THE BEST

POSITION TO SUCCEED.

I CAN HELP YOU MAKE PLAYS BUT I

CAN ALSO HELP YOU BE THE BEST

MAN THAT GOD HAS CREATED YOU TO

BE LESLIE FRAZIER AN AMAZING

LEADER COACH CHRISTIAN MAN WITH

,PURPOSE AND THE PLAN AND THE

MESSAGE THAT REALLY RESONATES

WITH ALL OF US.

GREAT LIFE OF SUCCESS IN YOUR

LIFE TO SAY I CAN HELP YOU MAKE

PLAYS BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY I

CAN HELP YOU WITH LIFE.

YES, THAT'S THAT'S EVERY EVERY

COACH, EVERY AND HAVE THAT

DREAM.

WHO STRUGGLE TO HAVE CHILDREN.

SHE SAID SHE CHOSE TO HAVE

CHILDREN AFTER FAILING TO

SO SHE DECIDED TO HAVE HER.

WOW.

SEVEN YEARS OLD.

TOP THE YANGS HAD TWIN BOYS.

BOTH OF THEM SUFFERED WITH

HOLES THEIR HEARTS AND BOTH

WERE IN DANGER OF DYING UNLESS

THEY GOT OPERATION THAT THEIR

FAMILY COULD NEVER AFFORD.

GROWING UP THE YOUNG TWINS

WERE ALWAYS SICK.

THEY OFTEN CUT COATS AND HAD

FEVERS SO WE TOOK THEM TO A

SMALL CLINIC TO GET I

WE FED THEM NUTRITIOUS FOODS TO

MAKE BODY STRONG AND THOUGHT TO

GET BETTER AS THEY GOT OLDER.

THEY ONLY GOT WORSE AND ONE

DAY SHE COLLAPSED.

BOYS WERE PLAYING

BASKETBALL.

YOU WERE STANDING AND HIS FACE

HEART.

ALICE PANTING THE WHOLE WAY

WHEN THEY CHECKED HIS BROTHER'S

HEART THEY FOUND THE THING.

SONS ASKED ME MOM, WE WOULD DIE

WE DON'T HAVE THE SURGERY.

WE HAD TO STAY HOME AND READ OR

WATCH TV OR JUST SLEEP.

I WAS SO SAD.

MY BROTHER READ ME STORIES

ABOUT SUPERMAN.

HE SAID BROTHER, YOU'RE MY

HERO.

YOU'RE GOING TO RECOVER.

WHEN I WAS SICK SHE TOLD ME WE

GET THROUGH IT TOGETHER.

THE COUPLE WAS POOR AND

COULDN'T AFFORD SURGERY.

THEN A FRIEND TOLD THEM ABOUT

OPERATION BLESSING AND YOU MADE

IT POSSIBLE FOR BOTH BOYS TO

GET OPERATIONS.

NOW THEY'RE ENERGETIC.

THEY NEVER GET TIRED.

ONCE WE PLAY BASKETBALL FROM

2:00 TO TEN YOU HEAR MY

GORDON.

THREE YEARS AGO STEPHANIE

GOT THE BEST CHRISTMAS GIFT AND

SHE'S BEEN THANKING FOR IT EVER

SINCE HER HUSBAND HAD COVID AND

DOCTORS HAD NO HOPE FOR HIS

RECOVERY.

STEPHANIE TO BELIEVE THEM

AND THAT SET THE STAGE FOR

MIRACLE.

THE THE WAS LIKE A DOG

PANTING AND I KEPT TELLING HIM

IF YOU DON'T STOP BREATHING

LIKE THAT.

I'M GOING TO TAKE YOU TO THE

E.R. YOU KNOW, SLOW TAKE DEEP

BREATHS.

AND HE JUST COULDN'T.

IN SEPTEMBER 20, ROSS STRYKER

GOT WHAT HE THOUGHT WAS A COLD

.

AFTER SEVERAL DAYS HIS SYMPTOMS

GOT WORSE AND.

HIS WIFE STEPHANIE RUSHED

HIM TO THE HOSPITAL.

HE JUST KEPT SAYING I FEEL LIKE

MY BODY'S SHUTTING DOWN BUT HE

WAS PANTING, JUST WASN'T

BREATHING NORMAL.

I WHEELED HIM IN MYSELF.

.

THEY IMMEDIATELY TOOK

COMMAND AND BEAT HIM AND TESTED

HIM.

ROSS TESTED POSITIVE FOR COVID

19 BEFORE STEPHANIE EVEN

PROCESS THE NIGHT'S EVENTS.

ROSS WAS PUT ON A VENTILATOR

.

THEY BASICALLY WERE SAYING

THAT HE WAS YOU KNOW, HE WAS

DYING AND THERE WAS NOTHING

THEY COULD DO.

ROSS WAS A BELOVED HIGH

SCHOOL FOOTBALL COACH AND

TEACHER IN KINGMAN, ARIZONA.

HE AND STEPHANIE HAD THREE

CHILDREN TOGETHER.

SHE BEGAN REACHING OUT TO THE

SCHOOL FAMILY AND FRIENDS FOR

PRAYER.

I GOT ON FACEBOOK JUST

BRIEFLY LET EVERYBODY KNOW AND

I MEAN HE PROBABLY HAD

THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE PRAYING FOR

HIM AT SOME POINT.

MY COUSIN LIVES IN NASHVILLE,

FOR EXAMPLE AND.

SHE HAS A CHURCH AND SHE HAS A

PRAYER CHAIN AND SHE'S LIKE

WE'VE GOT HIM ON THERE, YOU

KNOW, JUST SO MANY PEOPLE THAT

THAT DID THAT.

I GOT THIS CALL FROM STEPHANIE

AND SHE SAID THAT SHE HAD TAKEN

RUSSELL TO THE HOSPITAL AND AT

THAT TIME THE DOCTORS SAID THAT

THEY DID NOT THINK THAT RUSSELL

WOULD MAKE THROUGH THE NIGHT.

DUE TO COVID RESTRICTIONS,

STEPHANIE WAS NOT EVEN ALLOWED

BE WITH HER HUSBAND.

AS HIS CONDITION DETERIORATED

QUICKLY.

WAS IN A ROOM THEN THERE WAS

ANOTHER ROOM OUTSIDE OF THAT

THAT THE HOSPITAL STAFF WOULD

GO IN AND YOU KNOW, TRADE OUT.

WE WENT TO A ROOM AND WE PRAYED

AND PRAYED AND PRAYED.

STEPHANIE CLUNG TO HER FAITH

BUT ALSO BEGAN TO CONSIDER A

WORST CASE SCENARIO.

I HAD MY ABRAHAM AND ISAAC

MOMENT WHERE I HAD TO TELL GOD

IF YOU IF IF YOU WANT TO TO

TAKE HIM I LAY HIM DOWN.

WHAT I WANT IS THIS PERFECT

HEALING.

I WANT HIM TO COME OUT OF THIS

BUT YOU KNOW I RELINQUISH TO

YOUR WILL WHATEVER IT IS.

ROSS SPENT THE NEXT MONTH IN A

COMA AND ON A VENTILATOR IN THE

MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT ON OCTOBER

26TH.

ROSS CODED.

HE WAS REVIVED BUT DOCTORS

HELD OUT LITTLE HOPE FOR HIM.

THE DOCTOR CALLS ME AGAIN AT

ABOUT 536 THAT MORNING AND SAID

HIS HIS BLOOD PRESSURE IS

EXTREMELY LOW.

WE'VE THROWN EVERYTHING AT

IT AND WE JUST CAN'T KEEP IT

UP.

HE SHOULD COME DOWN.

THAT MORNING STEPHANIE SISTER

AND HER FRIEND DEANNA ARRIVED

AT KINGMAN HOSPITAL, STARTED A

PRAYER VIGIL OUTSIDE HIS ROOM.

WE STAYED THERE FOR I

BELIEVE IT WAS ABOUT 7 HOURS

AND WE PRAYED THE WHOLE TIME.

THEN SOMETHING MIRACULOUS

HAPPENED.

WE HAD PUT THAT WORSHIP MUSIC

ON AND WE JUST YOU KNOW, AND I

CAN'T TELL YOU WHAT IT IS TO

LOOK AT THAT MONITOR AND SEE

THAT HIS BLOOD PRESSURE STARTED

OUT AT LIKE 50 OVER 30.

I MEAN IT WAS JUST AN EVEN.

AND AS WE PRAYED AND SANG, HIS

BLOOD PRESSURE BEGAN TO CLIMB

AND CLIMBING AND THAT WAS LIKE

THE FIRST TIME THAT I JUST

WITNESSED, YOU KNOW.

WOW, THIS IS CRAZY.

ROSS EVENTUALLY STABILIZED, WAS

TRANSFERRED TO THE MAYO CLINIC

IN PHENIX WHERE HE SPENT

ANOTHER MONTH ON THE

VENTILATOR.

IN MID-DECEMBER HE FINALLY

BEGAN TO REGAIN CONSCIOUSNESS.

I HAD NO IDEA WHAT THE

TIMEFRAME WAS AT ALL.

I HAD A FEELING THAT I HAD

MISSED MY FOOTBALL SEASON BUT I

BUT I WASN'T.

YOU KNOW, LIKE IF IF CHRISTMAS

HAD ALREADY COME AND GONE I

JUST DIDN'T KNOW HOW MUCH HOW

MUCH TIME IT HAD ELAPSED.

77 DAYS ON A VENTILATOR.

ROSS WENT HOME

IT WAS THE BEST CHRISTMAS GIFT

STEPHANIE EVER HAD.

WE ALL CHRISTMAS EVE

TOGETHER AT AT MY PARENTS AND

YOU KNOW, PART OF THE

FESTIVITIES THAT WE ALWAYS DO

IS YOU SAY WHAT YOU'RE THANKFUL

FOR THROUGH THE YEAR.

SO THINGS GOD DID DO THAT

EXPERIENCE BOTH FOR US AND

PEOPLE CLOSE TO US AND PEOPLE

WE'VE NEVER MET.

HE STILL PERFORMS MIRACLES JUST

AS BIG AS THEY IN THE BIBLE.

AND MY HUSBAND'S ONE OF

THEM.

TODAY ROSS IS FULLY RECOVERED

AND IS BACK TO COACHING.

HE LOVES TELLING OF HIS HEALING

EVERY CHANCE HE GETS.

THERE'S NO MEDICAL EXPLANATION

.

I'VE TALKED TO SEVERAL OF MY

NURSING FRIENDS WAS 100% A GOD

THING.

NO REASON I SHOULD OTHER THAN

THAT GOD DECIDED THAT I WAS

GOING TO BE ALIVE BECAUSE I GET

OLDER AND I JUST BELIEVE IN THE

POWER OF PRAYER MORE THAN I

EVER HAVE.

I SAID I JUST BELIEVE GOD BRING

HIM THROUGH IT AND HE DID.

I DON'T KNOW WHY GOD DID IT.

I NO IDEA WHY.

YOU KNOW I DON'T DESERVE IT ANY

MORE THAN ANYONE ELSE.

IT'S NO DIFFERENT THAN BIBLICAL

TIMES.

YOU KNOW, IT'S IT'S NO

DIFFERENT.

HE'S THE SAME.

IT WAS THE SAME THEN AS AS HE

IS NOW, YOU KNOW?

AND IT COULD HELP PEOPLE THEN

HE RAISED PEOPLE FROM THEN AND

HE DID THE SAME WITH ME AND

HE'LL DO THE SAME FOR YOU.

FOR HE IS THE SAME

YESTERDAY, TODAY AND FOREVER.

IS THE ETERNAL ONE THE ALPHA

AND OMEGA.

HE IS OF THE WORLD AND HE GIVES

US LIFE AND HE SUSTAINS THAT

LIFE AND HE BRINGS US FORWARD

TO THIS TIME WHY?

SO THAT WE CAN GIVE HIM PRAISE

FOR WHAT HE HAS DONE WHAT HE

HAS CREATED.

LET PRAISE BE ON TODAY.

I KNOW IT'S A DARK TIME IN THE

WORLD.

THERE'S LOTS OF WARS.

THERE'S RUMORS OF WARS.

YOU LOOK AT THE GENOCIDE

HAPPENING IN ARMENIA, THE

HORRORS IN UKRAINE, THE HORRORS

OF OF GAZA, THE HORRORS OCTOBER

SEVEN YOU LOOK AT ALL OF THESE

THINGS AND YOU GO GOD, PLEASE

INTERVENE, PLEASE INTERVENE.

AND THEN YOU HAVE THE ASSURANCE

INDEED HE IS THAT HE HOLDS ALL

THINGS TOGETHER BY THE POWER OF

HIS WORD AND HE IS THE SAME

YESTERDAY, TODAY AND FOREVER.

WE HAVE A REASON HOPE AND THAT

REASON IS OUR SAVIOR AND OUR

MESSIAH AND HIS NAME IS JESUS.

HIS VERY MEANS SALVATION.

SO LET'S TURN.

LET'S NOT TURN TO OUR

PROBLEM.

LET'S TURN TO OUR ANSWER FOR HE

IS THE ANSWER TO EVERY HUMAN.

NOW WE'RE GOING TO PRAY FOR

YOU BEFORE WE PRAY.

HERE ARE SOME OTHER MIRACLES

HAVE HAPPENED.

HERE'S ROSEMARY WHO SAID

DECEMBER 1ST THIS YEAR I WAS

BLEEDING INTERNALLY.

SO SOMEWHERE IN MY STOMACH OR

INTESTINES THE DOCTOR WANTED ME

TO THE E.R. BUT THEN DECIDED TO

DO BLOOD WORK.

THE DOCTOR'S CALL.

WATCHING THE 700 CLUB.

TERRY SAID SOMEONE IS BEING

HEALED OF DIGESTIVE SYMPTOM

PROBLEMS SYSTEM PROBLEMS.

PUT MY HAND ON MY STOMACH AND

JUST FELT A PIECE.

I AM PRAISING GOD FOR HIS

BRILLIANCE.

PAIN AND ALL DISCOMFORT.

800 707,000 WHEN WE'VE GOT SOME

TIME FOR A VERY QUICK EMAIL

QUESTION WHO SAYS IS FAITH ONLY

A REQUIREMENT FOR US HERE ON

EARTH?

WILL WE EVER NEED TO

EXERCISE FAITH IN HEAVEN?

THE APOSTLE PAUL SAYS THAT

FAITH AND HOPE AND LOVE ENDURE

FOR ALL ETERNITY THE REASON

FAITH ENDURES IS THAT WE'RE

GOING TO BE DOING THINGS IN

HEAVEN.

IT'S NOT JUST SITTING AROUND ON

CLOUDS GOING TO BE DOING THINGS

AND WE'RE GOING TO BE CREATIVE

JUST AS AS GOD WAS CREATIVE

THAT HE BELIEVES WHEN THINGS

ARE NOTHING THAT HE PROCLAIMS

THEM AND THEY COME AND TO BE

THAT EXERCISING FAITH ON A

WHOLE NOTHER LEVEL YOU GET TO

BE CREATIVE AND YOU GET TO BE A

JOINT AIR JESUS CHRIST BY WHOM

AND THROUGH WHOM ALL THINGS

WERE CREATED.
