CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY JANUARY 31, 2024
PRESIDENT BIDEN IS SAID TO BE CONSIDERING STRIKING IRANIAN NAVAL ASSETS IN THE PERSIAN GULDF FOLLOWING AN ATTACK BY AN IRANIAN DRONE THAT KILLED THREE AMERICAN SOLDIERS AND WOUNDED DOZENS OF OTHERS AT A U.S. BASE IN JORDAN.
THAT WON’T SERVE AS A DETERRENT TO IRAN. KNOCKING OUT THEIR MAJOR OIL SUPPLY DRUM AND HARMING THEIR ECONOMY MIGHT BE A BETTER IDEA.
PRESIDENT BIDEN HAS BROUGHT THIS ON HIMSELF – AND OBAMA BEFORE HIM. BOTH SENT LARGE AMOUNTS OF MONEY TO THE REGIME. BIDEN HAS ISSUED MEANINGLESS WARNINGS TO IRAN BUT NEVER FOLLOWED THROUGH. THAT’S A DEFINITION OF WEAKNESS.
VARIOUS ADMINISTRATION SPOKESMEN HAVE SAID AMERICA DOESN’T WANT TO GO TO WAR WITH IRAN. BREAKING NEWS: IRAN IS AT WAR WITH US. IF IRAN PAYS ONLY A SMALL PRICE FOR ITS TERRORIST ACTIVITIES IT WILL ONLY INVITE MORE OF THE SAME. THAT’S HUMAN NATURE AND WE HAVE SEEN THE RESULTS OF WEAKNESS – AND STRENGTH – IN THE PAST. PROJECTING STRENGTH HELPS KEEP THE PEACE. PROJECTING WEAKNESS INVITES MORE ATTACKS AND LEADS TO WAR.
IF PRESIDENT BIDEN CHOOSES A WEAK RESPONSE TO IRAN’S MURDER OF AMERICANS, EXPECT MORE DEAD AMERICANS. I’M CAL THOMAS.
