When John Bolton took the job of Secretary of State, the left told us that war was inevitable. According to them, he was the biggest war hawk of all, and there would be no leashing him.
Now that he has resigned, the left is telling us that it’s proof that we’re going to war. Obviously, the primary voices on all of this are unreliable.
So, what is really happening with Iran? Are we going to war? Answering that question requires us to recognize two things about President Trump.
First, he doesn’t want war. It’s not his goal. If at all possible, he would rather find a way via trade and negotiation to solve problems. That’s the one thing we know best about him.
The second thing is that he is no coward. If Iran forces his hand, then he’ll respond with military force. We saw that when Assad used chemical weapons.
So, the better question is, “Has Iran pushed us to war?” The truth is that we’re on a knife’s edge. Iran has outright attacked America and her allies multiple times. They shot down our drone. They attacked tankers from several allied countries. Now, they have bombed Saudi Arabia. There’s no reason to think that this will stop.
It’s a tense situation, and the only way to properly understand is to take a deep look at all of the factors. This video will help you do that.
Glenn Beck will take you through the entire situation. You’ll have a better answer as to whether or not we’re going to war. More importantly, you’ll understand why.
