CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY SEPTEMBER 4, 2025
IT WAS THEN-PRESIDENT GEORGE W. BUSH IN 2002 WHO COINED THE PHRASE “AXIS OF EVIL” TO DESCRIBE IRAN, IRAQ AND NORTH KOREA. ON TUESDAY IN BEIJING AND NEW AXIS OF EVIL WAS ON FULL DISPLAY IN A GIANT MILITARY PARADE VIEWED BY THE HEADS OF GOVERNMENT OF RUSSIA, NORTH KOREA, AND OF COURSE CHINA.
CHINA’S LATEST WEAPONS WERE ON FULL DISPLAY WITH XI JIING PING BRAGGING HIS COUNTRY WAS ON THE MARCH AND NO ONE CAN STOP IT.
PRESIDENT TRUMP BLASTED THE LEADERS FOR “CONSPIRING AGAINST THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.” HE IS RIGHT AND WE HAD BETTER DO ALL WE CAN TO STOP FOOLING AROUND WITH ISSUES THAT MATTER LESS THAN PROTECTING AMERICA’S STRENGTH AND STATUS IN THE WORLD. OTHERWISE WE ARE GOING TO LOSE ALLIES, AND POSSIBLY OTHER COUNTRIES, ESPECIALLY TO CHINA, WHICH IS ACTIVELT INFILTRATING WITH AID MONEY AND PEOPLE IN AFRICA AND SOUTH AMERICA, UNDERMINING U.S. INTERESTS.
THIS COULD RESULT IN A NEW “COLD WAR” THAT HAS THE POTENTIAL FOR TURNING HOT, ESPECIALLY IF CHINA INVADES TAIWAN AND RUSSIA EXPANDS ITS WAR BEYOND UKRAINE. PEACE THROUGH STRENGTH IS OUR BEST DETERRANT, AS RONALD REAGAN SAID. AND EVIL MUST BE OPPOSED. I’M CAL THOMAS.
