Reader defends conservatives' silence on rising prices

Sun Citian addresses inflation, Iran, ICE, sanctions on Russia

OPINION — My response to Will Resist’s letter, Where is conservative outrage over high prices?:

• Inflation is a current problem, but less so than during the Biden years when inflation reached 9% annually and prices increased around 20% during that four-year period. Biden inflation was caused primarily by supply restraint, in an attempt to get rid of oil. This will never happen as oil is used in 6,000-plus products, from cosmetics to medicines in addition to fuel. It is one of the most versatile raw materials ever discovered.

• Armed conflict with Iran has deep roots extending to the 1979 Islamic Revolution. For nearly five decades, the clerical regime in Tehran and its proxies have committed a range of attacks against Americans and pose a continuing threat to U.S. national security. Iran is a world sponsor of terrorism and if Iran gets a nuclear weapon, they will use it against Israel and the United States, perhaps igniting a world-wide nuclear holocaust, in my opinion. This regime and its jihad against the civilized world must be permanently extinguished.
