Ben Shapiro: Trump has right Iran policy, Obama’s wrong policy provided funds for Iranian terrorism

OPINION - By Ben Shapiro | Creators Syndicate



Jonathan Schanzer says President Trump called Iran's bluff
The Iranian missile attack on U.S. forces in Iraq appears to have been aimed at not killing Americans, says Jonathan Schanzer, senior vice president for research at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies.


President Trump launched a global round of teeth gnashing when he ordered the killing of the greatest terrorist leader in the modern Middle East, Iran's Gen. Qassem Soleimani.

Soleimani was unquestionably responsible for the deaths of hundreds of Americans in Iraq and thousands of others throughout the Middle East -- mostly Muslim. His global terror network ran from South America to Europe to Africa to Lebanon, Syria, Yemen and Iraq. Soleimani was an unparalleled organizer and a pitiless murderer. His death was richly earned.

But for many in the media and on the domestic and international left, Trump's action was precipitously "provocative."

In the past few months, Iran and its proxies have attacked shipping in the Strait of Hormuz, Saudi oil facilities, an American drone and an American embassy, among other targets. All of this occurred while the Trump administration did little or nothing in response.

Then Trump ordered the killing of Soleimani. Suddenly, we have been informed by dishonest Democrats and their media allies, Iran has gone rogue.

Nonsense. Iran has been rogue for decades. The Iran deal was simply an attempt to whistle past the graveyard with the terror regime -- to pay it off long enough so that President Obama could declare the problem handled. This was, after all, the Obama strategy in Crimea and Syria: Declare a red line; run away from it; pretend that pusillanimous inaction is bravery and deterrence provocation.

Trump thought differently. Now Iran has come face to face with the prospect that actions have consequences -- and those consequences don't involve pallets of cash being shipped over to fund terror organizations that span the globe.
