CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY JANUARY 9, 2020
CHALK UP ANOTHER VICTORY FOR PRESIDENT TRUMP. IN A STATEMENT FROM THE WHITE HOUSE YESTERDAY, THE PRESIDENT SAID AS LONG AS HE IS PRESIDENT IRAN WILL NEVER BE ALLLOWED TO HAVE NUCLEAR WEAPONS.
HE ALSO NOTED HOW U.S. FORCES HAVE RECENTLY ELIMINATED TWO OF THE WORLD’S WORST TERRORIST LEADERS – AL BAGHDADI AND SOLOMEINI. AND HE BRAGGED THAT AMERICAN MISSILES AND OUR MILITARY IS BIGGER THAN ANYTHING IRAN HAS OR WILL HAVE.
I THINK THE MULLAHS BELIEVE WHAT THE PRESIDENT SAYS BECAUSE THEY’VE BEEN HIM KEEP HIS WORD. TOUCH AN AMERICAN AND YOU WILL BE HIT. THAT’S WHY THOSE MISSILES DIDN’T HARM A SINGLE AMERICAN, OR ANYONE ELSE. THEY APPEAR TO HAVE BEEN FIRED SO IRAN’S FANATICAL LEADERS COULD CLAIM RETALIATION. THEY LIED AND SAID MANY AMERICANS WERE KILLED.
THAT THE PRESIDENT DIDN’T RESPOND WITH ANOTHER ATTACK DE-ESCALATES THE CONFLICT FOR NOW. BUT THIS WAR IS NOT OVER. THAT’S BECAUSE IRAN BELIEVES IT HAS A RELIGIOUS MOTIVATION TO SUBDUE THE WORLD UNDER ISLAM, WHICH INCLUDES DESTROYING ISRAEL. WE NEED TO CONTINUE TO STAND AGAINST THEM AND KEEP IRAN FROM ACHIEVING ITS GOALS. I’M CAL THOMAS.
