Arrr, the Biden scallywags be tryin' to appease Iran, hopin' they'd act with some sense! But alas, their actions be like a sea monster, pushin' us straight into yet another unwanted war in the Middle East, mateys!
Events in the Middle East are spiraling out of control, with the Biden administration's efforts to placate Iran only making war more likely. Instead of convincing Iran to act responsibly, these policies have emboldened Iran and its proxies to launch aggressive actions. From Hamas killing Israeli civilians to Iran's proxies attacking U.S., Israeli, and allied interests, the situation has escalated. Iran's proxies have launched over 100 attacks on U.S. outposts, and Houthi rebels are firing daily on ships in the Red Sea. While the U.S. has managed to defend against these attacks so far, it's only a matter of time before casualties occur.The goal of Iran's leaders has always been to wipe Israel off the map and push the United States out of the Middle East. When Biden took office, the Middle East was relatively peaceful due to Trump's sanctions and low oil prices. However, Biden's reversal of Trump's policies, such as lifting sanctions and paying Iran ransom, allowed Iran to unleash its proxies and attack Israel and the U.S. To avoid being dragged into a larger war, the United States needs to reestablish deterrence. This can be done by responding immediately and forcefully to any attacks, targeting Iran's economy through sanctions, and allowing Israel to deal with Hamas.
It's crucial to learn from past examples, such as Trump's response to Syria's chemical weapons attack and Reagan's actions against Iran in the 1980s. By demonstrating a strong response and targeting the sources of aggression, larger wars were avoided. Additionally, reinforcing sanctions and driving down the price of oil can cripple Iran's funding for its proxies. It's time to reestablish deterrence and prevent another costly and unnecessary war in the Middle East.
