LOS ANGELES (oc).–Democrats in the House failed to pass a war resolution to restrict President Donald Trump’s spending on the Iran War, something so obviously political that it defies any common sense or reality. Trump joined Israel Feb. 28 to neutralize Iran’s military, posing an existential threat to Israel and attacking U.S. interests in the Middle East. Since the 1979 Islamic Revolution, Iran broke off diplomatic relations with the U.S., spending its oil revenues to sponsor terrorism around the region. Iran funded-and-armed the Palestinian terror group Hamas in the Gaza Strip, primarily tot wage continuous war with Israel. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyau got tough with Hamas aftaer the Oct. 7, 2023 massacre where Hamas terrorists slaughtered 1,200 Israeli citizens, taking another 251 hostages, many returned to Israel in body bags.
When it comes to the Iran War, Democrats and the fake news keep repeating their political talking points that Trump has no real plan, no goals and has squandered the blood-and-treasure of the United States. House Democrats are all about discrediting Trump before the November Midterm elections, hoping they can gaslight enough voters into believing that life under Trump has created growing hardship in the U.S. In reality, Wall Street continues to set record highs, despite the uncertainty of an ongoing war. Wall Street believes that Trump will end the war at the earliest possible time, giving traders hope that they can continue the bull market. When it comes to Democrats, they only look at the politics of winning votes. Not doing what’s best for U.S. foreign policy and national security. Trump has his eyes focused on advancing U.S. interests abroad.
Trump hosted at the White House Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Lebanese President Joseph Aoun for peace talks. MeeTing for the first time since 1983, Israel and Lebanon are long overdue in developing diplomat relations. Lebanon has been held hostage by Iran-backed Hezbollah, a terrorist militia dedicated to destroying Israe. Composed of Shiite Arabs, Hezbollah is paid-and-armed by by Iran to maintain continuous warfare with Israel. Meanwhile, Lebanon is driven more into poverty by allowing Hezbollah to attack Israel’s northern border. With Gaza’s Hamas all but defeated, Hezbollah continues to battle Israel, largely as a proxy force for Iran. Trump wants Lebanon and Israel to develop diplomatic relations so Israel can help Lebanon rebuild its battered country. Hezbollah has created widespread destruction in Lebanon.
Democrats and fake new know that Trump has neutralizd Iran’s military, leaving it unable to advance its terrorist agenda around the Middle East. Yet if you listen to the 24/7 Democrat propaganda on CNN and MS cable networks, you’d think Trump has engaged in a wasteful, reckless war. Trump was the first-and-only U.S. president to take on Iran militarily, following up on last year’s 12-day war where Trump sent B-2 bombers with bunker-busting bombs to destroy Iran’s underground uranium enrichment facilities. Iran denies that it’s looking to build an A-Bomb but all of its obsession with uranium enrichment says otherwise. Trump wants Iran to agree to suspend its uranium enrichment program for 20 years, something the mullah government has refused to do.
Unlike past U.S. wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, Trump military invervention has strategic objectives to de-fang Iran from engaging in more state-sponsored terrorism. If you listen to Democrats and fake news, Trump betrayed his promises to the American public, to keep the U.S. out of costly, wasteful foreign wars. But Trump has said repeatedly that the war won’t last much more time with Iran and the U.S. engaged in Islamabad peace talks with Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif. Sharif wants the war to end at the earliest possible time, stopping the dangerous escalation, ending the war at the earliest possible time. Trump has gone along with Sharif’s peace plans but wants Iran to agree to suspend all uranium enrichment for the foreseeable future.
Trumps’s Iran War has been sold by Democrats and the fake news as reckless and wasteful, when, in fact, it’s anything but. Trump has specific objectives in completing what wasn’t finished in last years’s 12-day war. Trump demolished last years Iran’s nuclear enrichment sites, something Democrats find irrelevant. Well, Iran has been the largest state-sponsor of terrorism since the 1979 Islamic revolution. Iran has funded Gaza’s Hamas, Lebanon’s Hezbollah and Yemen’s Houthi rebels, all to destroy Israel as its final goal. So, when it comes to Trump’s war, he’s accomplished his major objective of de-fanging Iran’s terrorist state to make the world a safer place. Democrats and fake news only want to use war to discredit Trump ahead of the 2026 Midterm elections. Voters should look carefully at Democrat propaganda, another hoax to discredit Trump.
