President Trump is Leading on Iran

President Trump sent the message loud and clear: trade with Iran and you won’t trade with the U.S.  See “Trade with Iran and you won’t trade with US, Trump warns”.

Federica Mogherini, the EU’s high representative for foreign affairs, asked EU business leaders to defy the president, but they aren’t moving in her direction.  See “EU foreign policy chief calls on firms to defy Trump over Iran”.

Mogherini’s resistance is perplexing given the fact that Iran is sponsoring terrorist attacks in Europe right now, and the mullahs in Tehran have been targeting Europe since 1979.  See “The Iranian Terror State Targets Europe” and “Select Iran-Sponsored Operational Activity in Europe, 1979-2018”.

At this moment, Russia and China appear to be willing to challenge the president, too.  See “US boycott of Iran risks being godsend for China and Russia”.  Since both Russia and China are targets of Islamist terrorists, that could change in an instant.

Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarif, a man best known for his bellicose rhetoric, struck a defiant tone by saying that the world is tired of U.S. “unilateralism”.  See “Iran shows defiance as Trump vows ‘most biting’ US sanctions”.

The world is behind the curve.  Europe is becoming a war zone because of Islamist terrorism, and European leaders haven’t been able to muster the courage to deal with the problem even though it is tearing Europe apart.

As I said, Russia and China have not been immunized against Islamist terrorism, but they see an opportunity for short-term political gain on the world stage.  Russian and Chinese leaders are rolling the dice.  Warning: snakes bite their handlers when they can.

The rial, Iran’s currency, has lost 80% of its value.  The unemployment rate in Iran is 12.1%, and the inflation rate in Iran is 10%.  Iran’s economic situation is bad and getting worse by the day.

Ordinary Iranians are protesting all over the country.  They don’t like the state of their economy, and they don’t like their money being used to prop up puppet regimes in Syria, Lebanon, and Gaza to name just a few.  Rampant corruption in the Iranian regime and inequality are problems, too.

Revolution in Iran is a distinct possibility.  The Iranian regime is in serious trouble.  That’s why Iranian leaders are so upset that President Trump withdrew from the Iran nuclear deal.

Domestic turmoil hasn’t curtailed Iranian adventurism, though.  See “Statements By Top IRGC Official Gen. Sha’bani Published By Fars News Agency: ‘We Told The Yemenis To Attack The Two Saudi Tankers, And They Attacked’”.

It’s no wonder the Iranian people are taking to the streets by the tens of thousands and chanting “Death to the Dictator”.

President Trump is Leading the World, Again

Leadership is a lonely position.  That’s because in the beginning leaders are all alone.  They see things that others don’t see, and they take appropriate action before lesser lights even know there is a problem.  Still, they persist.  That’s what makes them leaders.

President Trump is a leader.  In due course, the world will see it and support him.  In the meantime, he is doing what he must do to protect the American people and our best and most reliable ally in the world, Israel.

That’s how you score points with Yahweh.

Despite nonstop attacks from obstructionist LPDs (“liberal progressive” Democrats) and the establishment media at home and foot-dragging by some of our allies, the president has stayed the course and accomplished one impossible feat after another.  Yahweh is blessing President Trump and the United States because he is doing what Yahweh wants him to do.

That, my friends, is the essence of faith.  President Trump has faith in Yahweh.  I call it “the faith of Abraham”.  See The Trilogy.

“The glory which You have given Me I have given to them, that they may be one, just as We are one; I in them and You in Me, that they may be perfected in unity, so that the world may know that You sent Me, and loved them, even as You have loved Me. Father, I desire that they also, whom You have given Me, be with Me where I am, so that they may see My glory which You have given Me, for You loved Me before the foundation of the world.” (John 17: 22-24)

See “His Name is Yahweh”.
