TOKYO/PALM BEACH, Florida, March 16 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump's demands for a coalition to help reopen the Strait of Hormuz appeared ​to fall on deaf ears on Monday as allies Japan and Australia said they were not planning to send navy vessels to the Middle East to escort ships through the vital waterway.

Very good, they should just stay away from it

After this Iran's debacle, many of those gulf allies of the US will have to restrategize their security architectures.

Kama is a biach.

Not too long ago he was literally threatening all his allies even Canada. Now he's begging them for help
Re: U.K, France, Japan, Australia, Reject Trump's Plea For Military Help In Iran by Ohibenemma(m): 11:26am On Mar 16
Does he really need their support? In these things, I think, Trumps calls for broader engagement to give a sense of legitimacy to some of his actions... The more the countries involved, the more acceptable the defensive move appears...

I believe the UNITED STATES can and might just defend and secure the Strait of Hormuz. It has been Iran's bargaining chip for too long.

But America doesn't need anybody on its side to win the war
Re: U.K, France, Japan, Australia, Reject Trump's Plea For Military Help In Iran by Basicend:
Trump is messing himself up the more.

What he is trying to create therein is an undue World War.

He has already distabilized the entire middle east.

Non of his allies will count it as risk-worthy to send $billions worth of war ships to Strait of Hormuz especially with the way Trump has diminished them recently.

I know it's hard for him to pull out now due to American investments in the region and Israel. Coupled with the fact that he doesn't want to touch or blow up the Iranian people.

He must quickly de-escalate and pull out the US, and perhaps conceive to forgo the the American hegemony and properties in that region.

That is the best price to pay for this error.

No America past president disrespect her allies the way Trump does. He talks down on US allies with arrogance. Forgetting US allies are part of the reason the world respects US.

Screaming or chanting death to America and death to Israel is the highest the terrorist and their sympathizers can do grin

Russia fights alone. Iran fights alone. China fights alone.

But the US? A so called superpower that have to recruit dozens of countries to fight Iran that is 5x smaller, has no nukes and under heavy sanctions for over four decades.

What a disgrace.
