War can remove an immediate threat, but history doesn't show that total destruction is the only path to peace. In the Middle East itself, military victories have weakened enemies yet rarely ended the underlying conflict for good. The Bible presents both force and peacemaking. Joshua and David fought when necessary, yet David was not permitted to build God's Temple because he had shed much blood (1 Chronicles 22:8 ). Abraham prevented conflict with Lot by peacefully dividing the land (Genesis 13). Isaac chose compromise over repeated disputes and later made peace with Abimelech (Genesis 26). Solomon's reign became a model of peace through wisdom and diplomacy (1 Kings 4–5).

Strength has its place, but so do wisdom, restraint, and negotiation. Enduring peace is usually secured through credible deterrence backed by diplomacy not by perpetual war alone.

You don't Negotiste with Terrorists who sole desire is your Destruction, You Destroy them and all their Capabilities.

It's unfortunate that the US led President Trump fell for the gimmicks of the Iranian Terrorists.
He would have Listened to ISRAEL. All these would hv been long gone.
Now he has go over again and again

The Iranian Terror Leadership are in Deep Excruciating Pains. They have been Deeply and Painful Destroyed.
So much of their fathers , leaders, commanders were destroyed like chickens.

What forced them to screaming for peace negotiations is the Destructions Inflicted. What will make them submit Totally is FATAL DESTRUCTION.

President Trump Listen to PM Netanyahu and ISRAEL else he will keep going in Circles

The Middleeast is not a place where you do Gentleman.
The Language Terrorists understand is the Language ISRAEL Speaks .

You don't get Real peace from signing paper,
It's From War, that you get PEACE.
The Enemies Submits only when it's Totally Crushed.

Wouldn’t it just be cheaper for those ships to pay Iran their 1m dollars (1%) and pass through than pay trump 20% + threats of mines, missile and drone attacks

Which deal do you think they will take?

Was the strait of Hormuz closed b4 the start of Trump’s war?

so because Trump started the war according to you,Iran/terrorist should be allowed to block international waters ba? then you must be dreaming.

besides, terrorist will never be allowed to own a weapon of mass destruction, the earlier you come to terms with this fact, the better for you and your likes.😊

You can only face reality when you sop being delusional.

Oga stick to the usual naija bashing we are use to and remove mouth from what you are ignorant of. Stick to igbo vs Yoruba, Obi, Tinubu etc talk yalk we are used to on this forum.
Iran is this and that yet despite all the bombings they still have steady electricity, they are not importing fuel or spending billions to fix refinary that cannot produce 4 liters of petrol as nnpc. For the past 40 years they have been among the exclusive list of 5 top countries graduating the most engineers in the world. Today they are at par with the US at 5th position. Iran does not carry last as your country Nigeria in life expectancy, despite been sanctioned for over 50 years.
Do you know their president is a heart surgeon still conducting surgery till today, unlike your own whoes wife is telling you your future rest in frying kulikuli and akara while he want you to cock and clean gun while being fed cassava, ewa, dodo and other nonsense.

You're such a disgrace to the Christian faith. Always chatting sh!t with no clue as to how the world really works. You think Israel is really God's own country but your own country isn't? You think your God is so biased, he has a preferred people? What kind of God do you serve? Should you even serve this kind of God that deals with you as a third-class worshiper?

Maybe you deserve that kind of God cos your brain is of a 10-year-old's. A little common sense will save you. Your myopia is staggering! Just dig a little and you'll see how irrational you have been. You most likely cannot be a very productive person in real life. You spend too much time talking nonsense.

Explore the relativity and universality of spirituality, and the fundamental equality of all human beings. Ask yourself whether a truly supreme God would value one race, nationality, or ethnicity above another, or whether those are human ideas projected onto the divine. Until you've seriously wrestled with those questions, you're simply repeating beliefs you've inherited rather than examining them.

The man is big fool he doesn't know what is he is saying. I just dey laugh in Swahili. He just talked anyhow without being thoughtful about it. He's just spewing nosense because of other countries not joining the weary war he started. He's now transferring the aggression to them.

This how he boosted earlier during the war that they will be exscorting tankers thru the strait but chicken out when he realized it is not feasible.

How is this werey going to implement this.nosense abeg and beside no any ship Iran will allow to cross the strait without being attacked. And insurance will never consent to any idea of these ships passing without a guarantee. This is talk of frustrated man. I hope oil will reach $200 soon to reset the felon brains.
