Memo to President Xi, President Putin, President Kim Jung Un, Ayatollah Khamenei, Governor Newsom, and Mayor Bass, et al

Memo to President Xi Jinping, President Vladimir Putin, President Kim Jung Un, Ayatollah Khamenei, Governor Gavin Newsom, and Mayor Karen Bass: There’s a New Sheriff in Town and he’s unpredictable. Opponents called President Trump “TACO,” “Trump Always Chickens Out.” A catchy phrase divorced from reality. Others call him Hitler or a king. President Trump is an indefatigable, forceful man of action, which is why he succeeded in the byzantine world of New York construction. He often negotiates with bluster. He engages in hyperbole. Part of President Trump’s strength comes from his unorthodoxy and unpredictability. Foreign leaders cannot be sure of what he will do next. The answer is easy – what’s best for America. It’s not the status quo. He knows what his goal is, the endgame. He has consistently said for the past decade: “Iran cannot have the Bomb.” We can assume that Israel had the schematics for the underground Fordow site, including utilities, back doors, and ventilation openings (like the first Star Wars movie). If it can be taken out by Israel, they will do so. Israel left it to President Trump. The Pentagon also had the schematics. The MOB bomb was designed to take out Fordow. President Trump may be flexible on the means, but not the ultimate goal. Iran will not have the Bomb. If Iran unconditionally surrendered, that would have been great. Iran refused to negotiate. They were warned. President Obama once “drew a red line in the sand” if Libya’s President Bashar al-Assad used poisonous gas on his people). Bashar did on March 19, 2013. President Obama’s response was muted. President Obama would not have taken out Fordow. He probably would have restrained Israel from attacking Iran. The story is during his administration he told Israel the U.S. military would shoot down Israeli attack planes headed for the Iranian nuclear facilities. It’s believable. President Trump gave Iran 60 days. Israel attacked Iran on Day 61. President Biden bugged out of Afghanistan and viewed it a victory. He, actually his staff, would not have bombed Fordow. Neither President Obama nor President Biden would have given 60 days notice. Even if they did, China, Iran, Russia wouldn’t give credence to it. President Biden’s Defense Department and security advisors couldn’t figure out for days what to do with a Chinese spy ballon that hovered over military facilities on the mainland. President Trump would have immediately ordered it shot down. President Xi should think twice about invading Taiwan, at least during the Trump Administration. Chairman Mao once called the United States “a Paper Tiger.” Paper Tiger, TACO, President Trump is not! He doesn’t bluff.

The Seven B-2 Bombers Mark the internment Of President Obama's Disastrous pro-Iran Foreign Policy

President Obama and Secretary of State John Kerry took the lead in negotiations with Iran to stop its nuclear program. They announced an agreement, technically The Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), between the Islamic Republic of Iran, United States, United Kingdom, China, France, Russia, EU and Germany. Iran promised to give up its efforts to build the bomb Iran, they said, would cease its efforts to build the bomb and allow inspectors into its facilities. All Obama did in fact was to kick the can, in this case a nuclear bomb, down the road for ten years. Iran was free under the terms of the agreement to resume work on the bomb in ten years. Iran, of course, continued to work on the bomb during the ten years. Iran, as many sceptics predicted, cheated. The JCPOA was even worse in two ways by what it excluded. No restrictions were placed on Iran developing, manufacturing, and possessing ballistic missiles, which is why Iran is unleashed its ballistic missiles on Israel. Iran possessed somewhere at least 2,000 leading up to 8,000 excellent ballistic missiles when war broke out on. The second omission is the lack of any restrain on funding, aiding and supplying terrorists, such as Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Houthis. Iran, in exchange for agreeing to the JCPOA, had sanctions lifted, which meant it made billions by selling its oil in open markets. President Obama followed up JCPOA by shipping at midnight $400 million in hard cash to Tehran. He later followed up with an additional $1.3 billion. President Biden outdid President Obama by releasing $4 billion to Iran. Presidents Obama and Biden partially funded Iran’s terrorist activities. The common denominator between President Obama’s actions and President Biden’s was Jake Sullivan. He was involved in the Obama negotiations and became Biden’s National Security Advisor. Susan Rice was also involved both times. Ayatollah Khamenei used the oil receipts and $5.7 billion Obama-Biden moneys to fund terrorism, build up his military, strengthen his security forces, and fund the bomb. What a waste of money; The Iranian people became poorer, being left with tons of scrap metal. The JCPOA was effective January 20, 2016, almost ten years ago. President Obama had a penchant for Iran. Various theories try to explain it. One explanation I read was that he wanted to move Iran back to the United States and the West – truly a naïve conception of religious zealots whose daily chants include Death to Israel and Death to the United States, the Great Satan with Israel the Little Satan. Another theory is that he envisioned Iran becoming the pillar of stability in the Mideast. The Sunni-Shite split would prevent that. Another is that President Obama was anti-Semitic, but was politically savvy enough to mostly muzzle it. His contempt for Benjamin Netanyahu was not a secret. Another possibility is he was imbued for two decades with Liberation Theory from sitting in Reverend’s Jeremiah Wright’s Church, pursuant to which Israel is a colonizer/settler forcing out the indigenous Arabs. He viewed the United States as an imperialist country. Senator Obama five days before his inauguration said his goal was to transform America. He certainly did internationally with Iran. Then maybe he reasoned he could receive the Nobel Peace Prize for disarming Iran’s bomb threat. Great theory, but he already won the Nobel for doing nothing. Then there’s the premise that President Obama would do everything to appease Iran as the price of getting Iran’s agreement His eight years in office consistently favored Iran. Then came the Green Revolution on June 12, 2009. Iran rigs its elections by vetting the candidates. The 2009 Election was totally rigged so that Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was elected. The public courageously rebelled and marched on the streets. President Obama was silent. No actual or moral support was extended to the Iranians. He told the CIA to cut off all contacts with opposition groups. President Trump is digging America out of the Obama-Biden foreign policy morass.
