FOX Business host Larry Kudlow ponders the future of the Iranian conflict on ‘Kudlow.’<\/p>\n
President Trump has done what no other modern president dared to: use America\u2019s military might to obliterate virtually all of Iran\u2019s capabilities including nuclear state-sponsored terrorism, economic and financial. And I completely support the president in this mission. We could stop now and basically Iran would be out of commission probably for the next 20 years in all of these areas. That, though, raises the question: why stop now? Why not finish the job?<\/p>\n
Why are we negotiating with Iran when Mr. Trump should be dictating unconditional surrender terms to whatever Iranian government exists? Here\u2019s what he said on March 7, after a reporter asked him to “give us an idea of what unconditional surrender looks like to you? What do you want from Iran?” Mr. Trump replied: “I said, unconditional, not conditional, I said unconditional. It\u2019s where they cry, uncle. Or when they can\u2019t fight any longer, longer, there\u2019s nobody around to cry out.” Mr. Trump added: “That could happen too, because, you know we\u2019ve wiped out their leadership numerous times already, so if they surrender or if there is nobody around to surrender, but they\u2019re rendered useless in terms of military.”<\/p>\n
Additionally, some press organizations are reporting a negotiation over a denuclearized Iran stretching between five years and 20 years, but Mr. Trump has never acknowledged this kind of talk. On April 14 he told the New York Post “I\u2019ve been saying they can\u2019t have nuclear weapons\u2026 so, I don\u2019t like the 20 years.” Now after pausing Project Freedom at the Strait of Hormuz, the project may be reopened in the next couple of days.<\/p>\n
Former U.S. special representative for Iran Brian Hook and former Army special ops intel analyst Brett Velicovich discuss Iran reviewing the latest U.S. peace proposal on \u2018Kudlow.\u2019<\/p>\n
And I hope it is reopened. I\u2019m hoping America demonstrates complete control over the entire Arabian Gulf including the Strait of Hormuz. And this control is non-negotiable.<\/p>\n
Indeed it turns out the president paused Project Freedom because the Saudis and the Kuwaitis were up in arms that our War Department belittled the Iranian attack on the UAE \u2014 including hitting a big UAE oil installation \u2014 and then our other Gulf allies were quite worried that we wouldn\u2019t defend them either.<\/p>\n
Now turns out the pausing of Project Freedom wasn\u2019t really up for negotiating with Iran, or at least that\u2019s what it sounds like, and I sincerely hope that is indeed the case. Now our Gulf allies have lifted their restrictions on the American military\u2019s use of their bases and their airspace after talks with the president and his team.<\/p>\n
So we may be back in business in order to bring 50 or 100 commercial ships and oil tankers through the Strait as soon as possible. And we\u2019ll be showing the world, including the three uglies; Communist China, Russia, and North Korea that we do indeed control the entire Gulf of Arabia.<\/p>\n
Unfortunately, in the so-called one-page document \u2014 which may actually be multiple documents \u2014 the president has removed any Iranian response deadline. So this all seems up in the air. Yet the radical Islamic regime, deadline or not, will stall and stall and string us along forever as long as there\u2019s no deadline. We should demand an immediate response and failing that, let the next round of bombing begin. That will obliterate Iran for sure, but we\u2019ll also be broadcasting to that same group of uglies; China, Russia, and North Korea, exactly what American power and fortitude looks like in this terribly important mission to decapitate Iran.<\/p>\n
