Donald Trump’s decision to bomb the Iranian nuclear facilities over the weekend has been greeted by the usual outrage of the mob plagued by Trump Derangement Syndrome. No matter what Trump does, Trump is wrong by virtue of being Donald Trump. The outrage over Trump’s courageous decision, though, is nothing but hypocrisy and theatrical grandstanding.
First, we must understand the train of events that have led to this war between Israel and Iran over Iran’s nuclear ambitions. For most of the 21st century, the prospect of a nuclear Iran has haunted America and Israel -- the two nations condemned to death and destruction by the radical regime in Tehran and its fanatical militant supporters. There has even been rhetorical agreement between Democrats and Republicans that a nuclear Iran is a grave threat to national security.
Now the divergence occurs. President Obama agreed to a nuclear treaty with Iran, proclaiming it would halt the Iranian nuclear program. Freeing up billions of dollars for Iran, the Iranians embarked on an aggressive terror funding campaign with their proxies around the Middle East. The JCPOA was quickly violated by Iran in 2019, which the IAEA confirmed. Nothing was done -- until now.
Since the October 7, 2023, attacks, Israel has unleashed a devastating military campaign against its terrorist enemies. Hamas and Hezbollah have been effectively destroyed. Bashar al-Assad, the staunch ally of Iran, is also gone. With Iran’s proxies dismantled and no longer having to face the specter of an Iranian-backed Syria, Israel was prompted to strike at Iran in the belief that Iran was weak. Iran was.
The weakness of Iran, seen in its inability to counter Israel’s initial attacks, was revealed to the world -- but especially to Donald Trump -- that Iran’s nuclear facilities were vulnerable. The fog of war was lifted by Israel’s attack. Trump, who had previously said he would not allow Iran to ever get a nuclear bomb, seized the opportunity to launch the attack on the Iranian nuclear facilities that has shattered the credibility of the mullah regime in Tehran.
Cue the music of outrage.
Within a few minutes of Trump’s announcement of military action, a choir of critics vented their outrage. Some called for impeachment. Others for an investigation. Others were adamant that Trump’s strike was illegal. Others began calling Trump a war criminal.
