President Donald Trump on Wednesday boasted the U.S. has “total control” of the Strait of Hormuz, despite what the “FAKE NEWS” may report to the contrary, before praising Allah for the nation’s stranglehold on the critical shipping passage.
“I THINK WE WILL KEEP IT!” Trump posted on Truth Social. “Our Naval Blockade is being called, by everyone, ‘A WALL OF STEEL,’ and there is nothing Iran can do about it.”
The president repeated claims that Iran’s military had been decimated:
"They have no Navy, they have no Air Force, their remaining soldiers are unpaid, the IRGC is decimated and fleeing, and their 'Leadership' is uncertain, at best! They have No Money – Their country is 'shot.' All they have is FAKE NEWS and 300% INFLATION, and getting worse! Iran is all talk and no action, the Bully of the Middle East No Longer. Praise be to Allah!" President DONALD J. TRUMP
Trump’s remarks come a day after Iran’s theocratic leaders claimed the Strait of Hormuz was partially closed — news which sent the price of oil north of $80 per barrel. Iran is demanding the U.S. unfreeze Iranian funds in order to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, according to Reuters.
The two sides continue to discuss a deal to bring the war to an end, with Trump on Monday saying he loved an “interesting idea” Iran had floated about getting reparations for damages done during the conflict. Trump said he loved it so much he was going to use it himself and have Iran pay for the families of Americans and Iranian protesters it has killed over the last half-century.
He also didn’t seem too concerned about Iran threatening his life, even when it forced him to ditch Air Force One due to a credible assassination threat.
“I don’t worry about anything, to be honest,” Trump told reporters on Tuesday night. “Whatever it is — you know my attitude? Whatever.”

I’m tired of all this winning, as gas continues to rise.
When does the bombing start again?
Trump is mocking the moon god.
Norwegian aluminum producer Norsk Hydro's Alunorte plant in Brazil, one of the world's largest alumina refineries, reduced output by 50% following disruptions to natural gas availability.
Bloomberg reports that disruptions to NatGas availability at Alunorte forced a 50% reduction in output and sent aluminum prices in London to a seven-week high. Hydro said production would return to full capacity once gas supplies normalize.
Inventories in London Metal Exchange warehouses have fallen to 250,000 tons, the lowest level since November 1990. Norsk Hydro recently warned that the annual global aluminum deficit could top 900,000 tons if trade through the Strait of Hormuz remained disrupted.
FYI...”allah” is just another brand name for satan.
It’s obviously sarcastic, so yes. And also under the skin of all the leftists Islam apologists.
Yes, that was a mocking comment. But as PIF noted, many in the Muslim world will instead take it as an affirmation of their gutter cult.
It’s not a big deal in the greater scheme of things. Bush II’s “Islam is peace” comment was a million times worse.
So Trump sarcastically “praising’ allah for helping him destroy Iran and its mullahs is seen as a positive by Iran.
Got it.
Hiding behind Christianity and the Bible will only make you more ignorant of Islam and more easily taken in and used unwittingly by them.
Got it.

I sincerely hope you do, but with the sarcasm it looks like you are a typical Westerner, totally ignorant of Islam which is why mosques and temples will be blasting the call to prayer 5X a day in your neighborhood soon.
Glory to the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit, now and ever unto ages of ages, Amen!
“Our Naval Blockade is being called, by everyone, ‘A WALL OF STEEL,’ and there is nothing Iran can do about it.”
He not only ticks off Iran but also the media love it.
Oh, that is such a good point.
That reminds me of the guy who looked at his pastor’s notes. It said, “Weak point. Speak loudly.”.
christianity leaves you nothing to hide behind. Not at all ignorant of islam, all it’s pretend, deceit and evil.
it’s those 1/2 in and 1/2 out, christian in name only, that you may be talking about.
The Naval blockade is the one right baby step Trump has taken in this fiasco.
It’s becoming hard to keep track.
As in “allalujah.”
I think the muslims also believe that what ever happens is Allah’s doing, although I think they use another word for that - “Inshallah” or something.
Heh - I even spelled it correctly: “If God is willing”
