Now there are many, many reasons to end the Iranian regime, take out their nuclear capability, take out their missile building, their terror financing, their entire military. But at the end of the day, I believe President Trump's epic fury is about restoring civilized value and civilized behavior in the Middle East. My friend Conrad Black, writing in The New York Sun, puts it this way. Let me quote, "The world's foremost terrorism-sponsoring state is about to cease to exist, and the war on terror that was unofficially launched on September 11, 2001, in the ashes of the World Trade Center, will substantially be won." Well done. And this is no forever war, as Trump critics keep complaining, but the scale and scope of geopolitical change, because of Mr. Trump's courage, is almost intellectually immeasurable, while all the Gulf states are behind him, and even the large European nations reluctantly supporting. We have heard nary a peep from China or Russia. They're the big losers in America's epic fury. China will lose its cheap, heavily priced, discounted oil. Russia will lose its Iranian-made drones. Both countries will have lost all of their Middle East influence. Meanwhile, a very similar story of Sino-Russian lost influence is occurring in South America, with Mr. Trump's path-breaking move in Venezuela. And after watching the use of America's military might, I would think China will surely be thinking twice or maybe five times more about invading Taiwan. Finally, President Trump issued a very clear message to the people of Iran that a historic moment of freedom is there, if they can seize it. Take a listen, please. Finally, to the great, proud people of Iran, I say tonight that the hour of your freedom is at hand. America is backing you with overwhelming strength and devastating force. Now is the time to seize control of your destiny and to unleash the prosperous and glorious future that is close within your reach. This is the moment for action. Do not let it pass. Yes, yes, indeed. The battle is always about freedom and liberty for mankind. There is nothing more important. Bravo, President Trump.
