Fox News’ Kayleigh McEnany ripped the “isolationist” right for embracing the “beachside foreign policy of Joe Biden” on Thursday’s edition of Outnumbered.
McEnany’s comments came during a discussion about President Donald Trump and the strike on the Iranian nuclear facilities at Fordow that he’s reportedly mulling over.
“That would be a precision strike, which is what we’re talking about. President Trump, his doctrine is peace through strength. An optimal word in that is strength, and identifying the moments to show American strength as he did with Soleimani, al-Baghdadi ,when he acted in Syria in 2017,” began McEnany. “To the isolationist crowd, my question would be: What makes your position materially different than the beachside foreign policy of Joe Biden? Sticking your head in the sand is no different than sitting in the sandy beaches of Delaware and saying don’t. When we just said don’t, which is what Biden said, what it got us was two global wars, one in Israel, one Ukraine, both of which are raging. It got us the fall of a country to the Taliban.”
She continued:
These are the facts. The facts are this, Iran is in the weakest position they have ever been in, not because of the United States, because of what Israel has done. This is a narrow window I don’t believe we will ever have again. A narrow window to conduct a pinpoint strike. Not regime change. President Trump has said, I’m not taking out Khameini. Not ground forces. A precision strike to take out a nuclear weapons site that only the United States can do. That’s the opportunity. That’s moment.
And here’s the alternative. Politico Playbook says, meanwhile in Europe, okay, well, what’s happening in Europe? Foreign ministers of Germany, France, and Britain plan to hold nuclear talks with Iranian counterparts. Who do I trust more? Germany and France to conduct foreign policy on behalf of the world to make sure nuclear proliferation doesn’t happen? Or the man that gave us peace through strength, decimated ISIS. The man who doesn’t want forever wars, the man who made sure no wars happened on his watch and in four presidencies, Russia did not invade under Trump’s watch. That is the man in charge. That is the commander-in-chief. It’s not the past presidents, Republican and Democrats. It’s the man who understands that doctrine.

Thank you very much and God bless you.
Unless you are willing to put boots on the ground, long term, you will not effect regime change or policy changes of the radical Muslim theocracy that will ultimately prevail in Iran. Therefore, a bunker buster attack may be but a precursor for a larger incursion.
I am aware of that. Glad he is pondering all the issues surrounding it.
Radical eh? Some country has been trying that for 250 years. It's been a little messy, but I kind of like it.
A lot of Americans are selling Iranian people short. Kind of like Democrats do to my black countrymen.
Does this person have any expertise in this area? I would sooner listen to AOC babble about quantum physics.
not July 4.
Be the first to comment without reading the short post.
McEnany is correct. The time to take out Iran, in which the mad mullahs in 1979 declared war on the West in general and the US in particular, is now.
Israel take out Iran? Fine. Do it with US bomber assistance? Fine.
As long as the Iranian threat is neutralized.
However it is done, PDJT will be regarded among the greatest Presidents.
McEnany sure sounds like a war pig.
foc rolls out warmonger after war monger.
.
neither side eats bacon.
not our war.
Sell them a bunker buster.
IDF will figure it out!
I hope you’re right. But I’m old enough to recall when the Shah was re-installed by the CIA in 1979 and the prevailing opinion then was that fundamentalists didn’t have a chance against Phalavi. Yet they prevailed because westerners don’t understand that middle easterners have more loyalty to their religion, sect and tribes than they do to political boundaries and politicians. The westernized Iranians are too few in number to prevail over the Mullahs and their followers.
The panicans in both camps can stuff it.
That is the day we will declare our independence like we did the first July 4th.
“I’m old enough to recall when the Shah was re-installed by the CIA in 1979”
The Shah fled Iran in Jan 1979, and never returned. There was never a reinstallation. He died just over a year later.
The U.S. knows where to hit. That Uranium enrichment area is like a light beacon with radiation. Our spy satellites can detect that radiation.
Your makeshift bunker buster you want the Israelites to build needs 30,000 lbs of explosives. Do they have aircraft able to deliver two of them with stealth technology?
The MOP GBU-57A/B needs a B2 and a squadron of B22 escort jets to deliver it. How long would it take to train all the pilots and maintenance crews? They don't have a lot of time. And the top secret technology is something you could trust any nation with.
I was surprised to see Kayleigh on Fox today. She announced on Gutfield that yesterday was her last time on Fox. She is leaving for maternity leave.
Your guilt by association is not always a logical move.
