Waves induce current into an antenna. Any mismatched antenna reradiates
most of the energy induced into it. A perfectly matched antnna only
reradiates 50% of the energy it receives.

That is a well-known factoid. Do you think it differs from something I
said? You note that current is involved in the reradiation.

Hint: If waves cause currents that in turn, cause
re-radiation, then Richard has proved your, "waves
don't cause radiation", assertion to be false.
