Ryan Mancini – The Hill March 14, 2026
President Trump on Saturday announced that “many countries” will send war ships to patrol the Strait of Hormuz amid the ongoing conflict with Iran, suggesting that its military is still capable of fighting back “no matter how badly defeated they are.”
“Many Countries, especially those who are affected by Iran’s attempted closure of the Hormuz Strait, will be sending War Ships, in conjunction with the United States of America, to keep the Strait open and safe,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “We have already destroyed 100% of Iran’s Military capability, but it’s easy for them to send a drone or two, drop a mine, or deliver a close range missile somewhere along, or in, this Waterway, no matter how badly defeated they are.”
He added that “hopefully” China, France, Japan, South Korea, the United Kingdom and other countries “affected by this artificial constraint, will send Ships to the area so that the Hormuz Strait will no longer be a threat by a Nation that has been totally decapitated.”
“In the meantime, the United States will be bombing the hell out of the shoreline, and continually shooting Iranian Boats and Ships out of the water,” Trump continued. “One way or the other, we will soon get the Hormuz Strait OPEN, SAFE, and FREE!”
The Hill reached out to the White House seeking clarification on whether the countries Trump listed are those sending war ships to the region.
Iran’s supreme leader Mojtaba Khamenei ordered on Thursday that the strait remain closed as long as the conflict continues. The closure has led to a surge in price increases on several goods, from fertilizer to oil and gas. Trump, administration officials, GOP lawmakers and the Pentagon have all downplayed concerns over rising gas prices.
Trump his cabinet members has floated the idea of using escorts through the strait before. The administration, however, has hesitated in carrying this out as it would put vessels in direct danger of drone and missile strikes deployed by Iran.
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent speculated on Thursday that an “international coalition” could escort oil tankers through the strait, something he said would have a “big effect.”
Three vessels were struck by unknown projectiles on Wednesday, one of which was later claimed by Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, bringing the total number of attacks on vessels to 19.
Retired Navy Rear Adm. and former Pentagon press secretary John Kirby said that a naval escort is “not necessarily a guaranteed success.”
“Drones can fly low and slow, they can fly fast and low, and they can do a lot of damage even to one ship with the Navy not being able to knock it out of the sky,” he said Thursday on MS NOW’s “Morning Joe.”

Look at the heads on these two pricks,
Mileikowsky & Trump
Surely a SNIPPERS dream…
Don’t miss, Otherwise Jim Bowen will be telling you “Here’s what you could have won”…
🙂
Lmfao what happened to the 4 or 5 days and it’ll be over. How’s that feeling you had going now Trump you Muppet and now crawling to other Countries to help you and your Jew scum Mates.
The Ayatollah wasn’t ‘assassinated’, nor were any other government officials. He’s a Donmeh actor performing his bit part in the Jewish-Christian-Islamic eschatological screenplay. Everything is going according to plan.
“Trump says…”
Who gives a rat’s ass what President Bullshit says?!
He is the perfect representative of a nation of liars, hypocrites and conceited ignoramuses.
The empire of greed, vanity and conceit is crumbling and I love it!

Remember the Monty Python ” Architect sketch” ?
John Cleese submits a design for what ends up to be an abbatoir ?
He explains the people will enter a room with rotating knives and also how the blood will be removed.
In light of this….is Trump this deranged ?
He thinks other nations will follow suit into what is a certain slaughter , possibly a long quagmire…and enrage their own citizens?
Hasn’t Iran sent enough messages of both its capabilities and non- negotiable resolve ?
The Strait of Hormuz will be filled with sunken Allies ships and Goyim shark food…
Zion Don the Con says…blah blah f*cking blah. That bloviating embarrassment Chump should have his tongue nailed to a tree stump and his hands chopped off and stuffed up his ass.
The Straights of Hormuz
The Straights of Hormuz are the ones free to choose
Whose tankers may cruise and whose ships are excused
They are straight to the point, they don’t try to confuse
They have hold of the joint, they’re not here to amuse
They shoot pretty damn straight, these Straight dudes from Hormuz
They are always awake and you don’t see them snooze
They’re at war and alert, and they know it’s the jewz
They are ready to fight and their Promise is True
Were I asked to pick chiefs of the straits of Hormuz,
There is no doubt I would choose, Those Straights, of Hormuz.
