Ben Shapiro: Trump Reverses the Obama Doctrine on Iran
nro ^ | Ben Shapiro

Posted on 01/02/2018 6:59:07 AM PST by RoosterRedux

In the past few days, thousands of Iranians have marched against the terrorist regime in Tehran. As of this writing, twelve of these Iranians have been murdered by the country’s Revolutionary Guard. Trump has tweeted his support for the protesters, spoken out in their favor, and made clear that he’d love to see them topple the regime itself.

Contrast Trump’s behavior with that of the Obama administration, which deliberately ignored anti-regime protests in 2009, choosing instead to cozy favor with the regime and maximize Tehran’s regional power. The administration even went so far as to give Tehran a legal pathway to a nuclear weapon. Obama stated that while he was “troubled” by violence against the protesters, it was “up to Iranians to make decisions about who Iran’s leaders will be,” and he hoped “to avoid the United States being the issue inside of Iran.”

The administration would go on to allegedly leak Israeli plans to kill the commander of the Quds Force, Qasem Soleimani, to the Iranians, lie to the American public about contact with the “moderate” Iranian regime regarding a nuclear deal, and then ship pallets of cash to the greatest state sponsor of terror on the planet.

The Fraud’s “doctrine” on Iran was SUPPLICATION.

The “Obama Doctrine” was to send bales of money to the Mullahs.

Many HERE liked to tell us it was ok because it was “their money”.

Good Trump. Bad Trump. Which one will we get today?

Ben has been very fair in his support/criticism of Trump.
