Making the world safe according to Trump

The world is a pretty tough unforgiving place. Press and pundits faint at breaches of political correctness, but world leaders play hardball for real, especially when treasure and territory are at stake. Many will spill blood to pursue or safeguard their interests. So politicians whining or scolding for domestic audiences are no more than side shows.

Blather is common stock in international relations, but apologies and appeasement are meaningless and certainly ineffective. Any foreign policy based on endless concessions without ever any consequences achieves nothing for a nation’s interest except maybe a bitten hand for feeding ungrateful regimes. In the world of Realpolitik, there is no respect for enlightened self-loathing. There may not even be respect for integrity or principle. Enemies don’t care about integrity and don’t agree on principle, so the only virtue universally respected and always effective is strength.

President Trump is exhibiting and exuding strength in everything he does. Trump genuinely believes in American greatness. He will speak for it, stand for it, and the world is learning he will definitely fight for it. Snobby elitists and goofy globalists in academia, media, or the Democrat Party (and some Republicans) are stunned a forthright American President will proudly wield American power and do what he says. They really haven’t seen that since Reagan.

The latest kerfuffle burst when Trump withdrew America from the fatally flawed Iran Nuclear Agreement, just as he said he would. Spineless self-serving politicians on both sides of the Atlantic bemoaned such a brash move and news anchors breathlessly forecasted imminent Armageddon. Most Americans already knew it was a horrible deal. It gave billions to a known exporter of terrorism, and a nation that regularly attacks Americans; an evil government chanting “death to America” before, during, and after the deal. Unrepentant in their hatred for America and unwavering in their vow to destroy America, making a deal with Iran is dumber than Neville Chamberlain making a treaty with Nazi Germany.

The “deal” also prematurely lifted sanctions on a tottering tyrannical regime, but President Obama was intent on preserving Iran as a counter balance to Israel. Obama disdained Israeli hegemony in the Middle East, so after failing to install the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, he bet on his pen pal in Iran. Democrat howls over Trump’s withdrawal have more to do with Trump systematically dismantling Obama’s tenuous legacy. But even the Iranians weren’t impressed; they didn’t even sign it!

Ponder that. These preening pansies are demanding we abide by an UNSIGNED agreement! And no, it was NOT a treaty because it would have never earned Senate ratification.

Europeans are aghast and against withdrawal because European companies are profiting in Iran and having lost their cultures to rotting relativism they can no longer discern evil. Too indebted to their bloated social programs to spend on defense, Europeans are happy to profit and foster Middle East turmoil because the Americans will have to clean it up. Chaffing the whole way, petty Europeans know they ultimately will follow the American lead, so they are already talking a new broader agreement. That’s Trump’s goal.

Israeli Prime Minister provided proof Iran was lying, but everyone already knew that. Iran actually proved their guilt and malicious intent by immediately attacking Israel. An agreement allowing a blood thirsty crazed regime to ever gain nuclear weapons is so moronic, one must question motive.

Ironically, the intelligentsia don’t have to harken back to Churchill or Reagan; Trump provides his own example. A few months ago, anguished politicians and trembling journalists were reporting impending nuclear war. Build shelters and store food because nuclear winter was upon us. Trump had pushed North Korea over the edge.

As North Korea begins dismantling its nuclear program and heads to the first ever summit with an American President, it’s time world leaders, talking heads, and Never-Trumpers take a lesson from Kim Jong-un: “Do what Mr. Trump say; it better for everybody.”

“The LORD will give strength unto his people; the LORD will bless his people with peace.” Psalm 29:11
