CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY JULY 27, 2026
JESUS SAID: “FOR WHICH OF YOU, DESIRING TO BUILD A TOWER, DOES NOT FIRST SIT DOWN AND COUNT THE COST, WHETHER HE HAS ENOUGH TO COMPLETE IT.”
HE’S SPEAKING ABOUT THE COST OF FOLLOWING HIM, BUT THE ANALOGY CAN ALSO APPLY TO THE IRAN WAR.
PRESIDENT TRUMP AND HIS ADVISERS PRESUMABLY ARE COUNTING THE HUMAN, POLITICAL AND ECONOMIC COSTS OF ESCALATING THE WAR WITH IRAN. AS THE NOVEMBER ELECTIONS APPROACH, THE PRESIDENT SAYS HE’S ONLY PAYING ATTENTION FOR WHAT IS BEST FOR THE COUNTRY AND THE WORLD, WHICH HE SAYS MEANS IRAN CAN NEVER HAVE A NUCLEAR WEAPON.
THE AYATOLLAH REGIME LEADS A GROUP OF RELIGIOUS FANATICS WHO LOVE DEATH MORE THAN LIFE. THEY WON’T NEGOTIATE A PEACE DEAL BECAUSE THEY BELIEVE ALLAH HAS COMMANDED THEM TO KILLS JEWS, ERADICATE ISRAEL AND ATTACK AMERICA.
IF WE COMMIT COMBAT TROOPS, MANY COULD DIE. WOULD THAT BE WORTH IT FOR LOWER GAS PRICES AND REPUBLICANS MAINTAINING THEIR CONGRESSIONAL MAJORITIES?
THE PRESIDENT SAYS IRAN IS 30 YEARS AWAY FROM REBUILDING. THEY WILL GET HELP FROM CHINA, RUSSIA AND NORTH KOREA. WHAT DO TO? THE ANSWER IS PRAY FOR WISDOM FOR THE PRESIDENT. I’M CAL THOMAS.
