Iran recently.

Are we winning?
Iran “recently” when? This is your claim so you should have at least basic information about it that you’d be willing to share, right? Maybe even a link?
They got Ben Givr. Badly wounded, may not survive.
Just curious but “They” whom & supposedly when? Is this like the USS Abraham Lincoln that Iran claims to have sunk something like six separate times in the last two weeks?
Just curious but “They” whom & supposedly when?
Iran recently.

Are we winning?
Iran recently “when” if this isn’t more vague unverifiable noise like elite fighters from all across the Middle East swarming into southern Lebanon to something something Hezbollah sorta thing.

So, just to be clear, you say Iran is the “they” in ‘they recently got Ben Givr’ etc…& you are not capable of stating when this supposedly happened? Was it today? Yesterday? The day before yesterday? Never happened? The day before the day before yesterday? Do you have a link?

NOPE. That is just the excuse. How much Canadian oil goes to the middle east? What other countries, or more correctly their rulling class is prepared to pay for gas and diesel is not relevant to Canadian taxpayers needs. The fact is we have a spineless government that not only hates the west, and believes in AGW, execpt for the fuel that jets use to take politicians and bureaucraps on world cruises, but gets an increase in revenue from extra taxes while pretending to not be the bad guy.
This, of course will soon make the economy crash but by then it will be too late. Russia of course is laughing all the way to the bank. Which many with serious TDS claim was the plan all along.
Foreign ownership controls Canadian oil. Signed, sealed, and delivered many years ago.

Trump called upon "countries of the world that receive oil through the Hormuz Strait" to "take care of that passage," as he put it in a post Sunday on Truth Social. In an interview with the Financial Times the same day, he went further, warning that NATO would have a “very bad future” if its members did not help free up the strait.

Starmer made it clear that he would not be drawn into “the wider war,” and that any Hormuz mission should be a broader effort — including the U.S. and Gulf states — rather than something for NATO.

Meanwhile, Japan and Australia said they had no plans to send ships to aid Trump’s request, etc…

The phrase "Arab fighters join Hezbollah" appears to refer to reports of foreign Arab or Iran-backed militiamen supporting or offering to support Hezbollah, particularly amid escalating conflicts involving Israel, Lebanon, and Iran.

Current Situation (as of March 2026)
The Middle East has seen major escalation since late 2025/early 2026:
Hezbollah has actively joined broader conflicts, including supporting Iran in its ongoing war (involving U.S. and Israeli actions against Iranian targets).

Hezbollah is engaged in direct fighting with Israeli forces in southern Lebanon, including ground clashes, rocket/drone attacks, and responses to Israeli incursions (e.g., around Khiam and other border areas).

Recent reports indicate Hezbollah's elite Radwan forces have redeployed to confront Israeli troops after earlier withdrawals.

There are accounts of hundreds of Shiite militiamen from Iraq traveling to Lebanon (via direct flights to Beirut airport) to fight alongside Hezbollah. This marks a shift from previous Syria-routed movements.
Some former Syrian Arab Army (SAA) fighters have reportedly joined Hezbollah for better pay and support.

Hezbollah's involvement has strained its domestic support in Lebanon, with the Lebanese government cracking down on its military activities, detaining fighters, and pushing for disarmament. The group faces recruitment/reconstitution challenges post-2024 ceasefire violations and losses.

No large-scale new influx of "Arab fighters" (beyond ongoing Iran-aligned militia support) is dominating headlines right now, but the pattern of foreign Shia/Arab proxies bolstering Hezbollah persists amid the multi-front war.

Even though I hope they keep killing these fuckers in the Islamic Death Cult, it's hard to garner sympathy for a President who, only a few weeks ago, pissed on our soldiers, veterans, and war dead.

After tariffing the world, threatening to make Canada the 51st state, repeatedly, the whole Greenland thing, the abominable treatment of Zelenskyy as an invited guest to the White House, screwing the whole American nation with lies about how tariffs work, getting slapped down by America’s own legal system over the same illegal tariffs & then tantrum’ing out new ones the next day, and so on and so forth…

It is, from the outside looking in, tough to find empathy for this character who’s even managed to make a call for assistance into an “or else” threat to potential allies over the Strait of Hormuz thing.

Who hasn’t Trump intentionally threatened or pissed off in the last year? He’s taken the American reputation and good will built up over 80+ years and flushed it down the toilet…intentionally. It’s disgustingly sorrowful at best and tragically…indefensible at the same time, & even if there was a change of government in the US today this could take decades to repair diplomatically. Trump has done America and the global community in general no favours in the last year, & there’s still a better part of three years to go.

America being our largest trading partner, only physically connected neighbour, sharing the longest undefended border on the planet, natural allies, and turn that into two way animosity over utter stupidity and bullying….& that’s just the Canadian perspective which is gonna be mild compared to many other sovereign nations I would assume, as Trump is actively attempted to turn America into an oppressive pariah while personally enriching himself and his billionaire buddies to his own country’s detriment.

Based on reports from the second Trump administration during 2025 and early 2026, finding a major nation that has not been criticized, threatened, or subject to tariff investigations is difficult, as the administration's "America First" strategy has applied reciprocal tariffs and trade pressure globally.

However, the following countries and leaders have maintained relatively positive or favorable relations compared to others, or have acted as key allies in his policy agenda:
  • Hungary: Viktor Orbán has received the "complete and total endorsement" of Donald Trump, and Hungarian leadership has been characterized as a strong ally in Europe.
  • Israel: Throughout the second term, Trump has maintained a strong, supportive stance, aligning closely with Israeli leadership on foreign policy initiatives, including the 20-Point Gaza Peace Plan, although tensions arose briefly over settlement policy.
  • Japan: Following the election of a new leader in Japan, and after Japan agreed to a framework deal involving investment and tariff modifications in mid-2025, Japan was noted as having a "significant deal" and a more stable relationship than others, despite being part of broader investigations later.
  • Russia: The administration has pursued a "realignment" and closer ties with President Vladimir Putin, aiming to settle the war in Ukraine through negotiations, rather than sanctions or tariff threats.
So that’s 4/195 (so 2%) and in contrast, long-term allies like Canada, the European Union, and India, as well as competitors like China, have faced consistent threats, tariffs, or investigation actions.
