CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY JANUARY 25, 2022
THE FOREIGN POLICY OF THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION CAN BE SUMMED UP IN TWO WORDS – RETREAT
AND ENABLE.
WE’VE SEEN RETREAT IN AFGHANISTAN AND NOW AMERICAN DIPLOMATS AND OTHERS ARE BEING
EVACUATED FROM UKRAINE FOR FEAR OF RUSSIA’S PUTIN ORDERING AN INVASION.
HOW ABOUT THIS FOR ENABLING: THE UNITED STATES IS PAYING IRAN’S DUES SO IT CAN REMAIN A
VOTING MEMBER OF THE UNITED NATIONS.
SANCTIONS AGAINST IRAN UNDER THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION WERE WORKING. IRAN WAS
STRUGGLING FINANCIALLY, THOUGH IT HAS ENOUGH MONEY TO CONTINUE ITS NUCLEAR PROGRAM. ALL
THE BIDEN PEOPLE DO IS NEGOTIATE WITH A REGIME THAT WANTS TO ELIMINATE ISRAEL AND THEN COME
AFTER US.
THE POINT OF SANCTIONS IS TO PUNISH BAD BEHAVIOR. IMAGINE GIVING YOUR COLLEGE STUDENT
MORE MONEY AFTER HE OR SHE HAS SQUANDERED WHAT YOU ALREADY GAVE THEM ON WILD LIVING.
THAT WOULD ONLY ENABLE MORE BAD BEHAVIOR.
IRAN IS THE BIGGEST FUNDER OF TERRORISM IN THE WORLD. IT OPPRESSES ITS PEOPLE UNDER AN
EXTREME FUNDAMENTALIST THEOLOGY. WHY ARE WE ENABLING THEM BY PAYING THEIR BILLS? THIS IS
THE BIDEN FOREIGN POLICY. I’M CAL THOMAS
