Trump calls for allies to help secure Strait of Hormuz as Iran vows to step up retaliation

Iran threatened regional escalation in response to U.S. airstrikes, while President Trump urged allies to deploy warships to secure the Strait of Hormuz. Both sides appear entrenched, with no diplomatic resolution in sight as oil supply disruptions continue. Iran has rejected a ceasefire until...

"Trump calls for allies to help secure Strait of Hormuz as Iran vows to step up retaliation"

So, Trump went off on one criticizing tradition US allies, like the UK, like Spain (the only two countries to participate in the Iraq War in 2003).

Now he's finding out the consequences to his actions. These allies don't want to join Trump because they think Trump is not the sort of ally you really want.

It's up to them. We get very little oil through Hormuz.

Iran waving the white flag.

Thread 'Any country except for US and Israel can pass through Strait of Hormuz, Iranian Foreign Minister says'

Yesterday at 9:29 PM

Sounds like a white flag to me.

How many Israeli ships use the strait? I would say, none.

How many U.S. flagged commercial ships use the strait?

Duh!

Iran said Saturday that all countries besides the US and Israel may pass through the Strait of Hormuz, in a desperate attempt at coalition busting less than a day after the US bombed military targets on its oil-critical Kharg Island.


"As a matter of fact, the Strait of Hormuz is open," Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said.


"It is only closed to the tankers and ships belong[ing] to our enemies, to those who are...​

Hopefully our former friends in Europe will take pity on us and come to our rescue in the Strait of Hormuz.

Trump urges US allies to send warships to Strait of Hormuz

Since we're strictly transactional now, I guess we'll have to pay them for their mercy.

Flip Flopper Trump. Your bestest buddy one day; a school bully the next; and calling you a "traitor" the day after that. Whatever you do ... NEVER turn your back on him and most certainly avoid "negotiating" with him. God knows he's NOT a man of his word.

The world knows that now, that's for sure.

You are on the forefront of global government. Iran is a nation that must be neutered for that to happen. In fact, the middle east will be contentious in a world system. If Trump is part of it, I do not know. The direction though is set up from many decades and centuries of elitists headquartered in Europe with others around the planet part of it.

 

[Mac1958]

Trump unilateraly chooses to go to war, then has to drag other countries into it. Not to mention the damage he's doing to world oil markets and global security. The rest of the world has to deal with his MESS.

He's a menace.

Trump promised at least two things: "No new wars" and no "3rd world war." Well ... he started a new war and now he wants to drag the rest of the world into it. Wouldn't that be a world war?

I've shared the following clip a number of times but it's worth sharing a thousand times. Watch the Neocons get made at ME for what TRUMP says in the clip:

Trump is being kind to the citizens of Iran up to now. We helped Europe twice in the 20th century. And even rebuilt it. Our friends. Our shortsighted friends. And the jitstain sellouts in our nation even added more NATO nations under Joe. Our friends.

 

[22lcidw]

We who are old enough were all here since 1979 hearing of the Iran and the menace it is. You had not issue with China controlling the Panama Canal without firing a shot when Jimmy Carter gave it to them. We can only imagine the technology hidden all over the isthmus that China installed for their advantage. If we need to rule the Strait of Hormuz, then so be it.

I was going to suggest that Europe should negotiate an end to the increased tariffs in exchange for saving our ass. But they know that Trump would jack the tariffs back up the minute it's over.

Are Trump and MAGA learning that TRUST and CREDIBILITY are key to America's success?

I very much doubt it. Trust and credibility are too complicated for them.

When you try to bully your neighbors, it’s rather awkward when you then have to ask for help

You've really lost your mind completely. Iran already opened the strait; how about Europe helps out for the oil it will consume?

We only have a small portion of our fleet and military there. Their weapons will be destroyed.

Now get on your camel and go help Iran.
