BREAKING: UK, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, and Japan issue a joint statement expressing their “readiness to contribute to appropriate efforts” to ensure safe passage through the Strait of Hormuz, while welcoming countries undertaking preparations, coordinating strategic petroleum reserve (SPR) releases, and exploring ways to boost output.

Never ever ever doubt Trump in these situations. He plays the game to the press unlike any leader ever.

America and its future politicians, LEARN! We have all the cards in all negotiations. Don't be scared to use them. Never fold!

It's not possible, Trump was rejected and these countries are putting Trump in his place.

This is how global politics works currently. We act like the a-hole that does what everyone else actually wants done. These other countries get to make their soundbytes to appease their willfully bliss citizenry about how awful we are, then a few days later that help out and it is moved on from very quickly.

Any word on what “readiness to contribute to appropriate efforts” actually constitutes?

We've been on a constant cycle of:

• Trump warns/promises something.
• Someone fricks around.
• That something happens.
• World leaders and lefty losers sky-scream like children.
• That something plays out.
• The world leaders and MSM have to walk back their shite talking and bend the knee.

Im still trying to figure out why the anti war crew hasn't called to bring any of our troops home from these places.


Just Iran.


It's almost as if they are Iran first.
