US-Israel war against Iran

Hasanah.id, International – Tensions in the Middle East are heating up once again, but this time the spotlight is on the crumbling internal solidarity of the Western bloc. Recent reports indicate that U.S. President Donald Trump is in an increasingly difficult position. His ambitious plan to implement a total blockade of the Strait of Hormuz to suppress Iranian influence has been met with a “cold shoulder” from his loyal allies.
The Strait of Hormuz, known as the jugular vein of the world’s oil trade, has become a stage for political egos that risk triggering a global energy crisis. However, instead of receiving full support, Trump has had to swallow a bitter pill as strategic partner nations choose to withdraw from this direct confrontation scenario.
Trump’s Ambition and Global Concerns
Trump’s move to tighten surveillance and blockade the Strait of Hormuz is not a new element in his aggressive foreign policy doctrine. Trump argues that this action is necessary to protect regional stability from sabotage threats. However, for many international observers, this move is viewed as a provocation that could ignite the “short fuse” of open war.
The “reluctance to join” shown by US allies—ranging from European nations to Asian partners—indicates that the world is growing weary of unilateral policies that often harm the global economy. A blockade in the region is predicted to send crude oil prices skyrocketing, a risk no country is willing to take amidst an unstable economic recovery.
