David Rutherford Show: Iran Rescue, Australian War Crimes, a SEAL Kill Squad, and the Istanbul Attack

David covers four stories every operator and security-minded American needs to understand right now: 🔹 The Iran CSAR Mission — how 155 aircraft, hundreds of SOF operators, and a CIA deception campaign pulled off one of the biggest pilot rescues since Vietnam. David breaks down the escape and evasion tactics, the parallels to Operation Eagle Claw, and what the equipment losses mean. 🔹 Ben Roberts-Smith War Crimes — Australia's most decorated living soldier arrested for five counts of war crime murder in Afghanistan. David gives his honest assessment as a former operator, the Eddie Gallagher parallels, and why the battlefield is not a courtroom. 🔹 The Spear Operations Group — Navy SEALs and Green Berets ran a secret assassination team out of a $7M mansion in San Diego, paid $1.5M/month by the UAE. David reacts to the kill list, the Delta Force recruiter, and why every operator has had "the mercenary conversation." 🔹 Israeli Consulate Attack in Turkey — three gunmen opened fire on the Israeli consulate in Istanbul this morning. David connects it to the rising threat paradigm and what it signals for Europe and the West.✅ Sponsor: ☕️ Black Rifle Coffee: https://www.blackriflecoffee.com/🏫 Get coaching by David Rutherford: https://www.froglogicinstitute.com/ 📕 Get David's novel, The Poet Warrior: https://www.ballastbooks.com/ballast-bookstore/the-poet-warrior 📰 Sign up for David's newsletter for free coaching tips, updates, and more: https://davidrutherfordletter.substack.com/ Timestamps: 00:00 - Intro 01:48 - The Iran CSAR Mission - 155 Aircraft, One Pilot17:00 - Australia's Most Decorated Soldier Arrested32:57 - Spear Operations Group - The Mercenary Hit Squad42:38 - Israeli Consulate Attack in IstanbulSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
