This is for the War in Iran. Trump thinks that all Americans are generous and that we all sympathize and will contribute to the defense budget through our "hard-earned money" by paying more at the pump and taking more of a dump.

Kuwait announces arrest of 10 Hezbollah operatives for alleged plot to attack ‘vital installations’
The Times of Israel ^ | March 19, 2026 | Staff
Kuwait has arrested 10 militants affiliated with the Iran-backed Lebanese Hezbollah terror group, who are accused of plotting “terrorist” actions against vital infrastructure, the interior ministry says.
This is the second Hezbollah-affiliated cell to be arrested in Kuwait this week, as the Gulf faces daily Iranian attacks during the Middle East war, which has seen Tehran-backed groups including Hezbollah join the conflict.
“The State Security Agency has successfully thwarted a plot for a terrorist operation targeting vital installations,” the interior ministry says. Promoted: Decision Points Season 6 Keep Watching
“Ten citizens, members of a terrorist group affiliated with the banned Hezbollah terrorist organization were apprehended,” it adds.
The ministry shares a video of seized items including Hezbollah flags, small drones and pictures of Iran’s slain Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and Hezbollah’s former leader Hassan Nasrallah, killed in an Israeli attack.
On Monday, Kuwait’s interior ministry said it arrested 16 people — 14 Kuwaitis and two Lebanese nationals — affiliated with Hezbollah who had planned a “sabotage plot”.
The ministry said the group had sought to recruit individuals and that it seized a number of weapons, camera drones and morse code communication devices.
Hezbollah denied that any of its members were among the 16 arrested.

We did better when they still had their military that has since been wiped from existence.....

European allies, Japan announce readiness to assist with reopening Strait of Hormuz
Five European countries and Japan announced Thursday that they are ready to assist with reopening the Strait of Hormuz amid the war with Iran.
The United Kingdom, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, and Japan issued a joint statement, saying: "We condemn in the strongest terms recent attacks by Iran on unarmed commercial vessels in the Gulf, attacks on civilian infrastructure including oil and gas installations, and the de facto closure of the Strait of Hormuz by Iranian forces.
We express our deep concern about the escalating conflict. We call on Iran to cease immediately its threats, laying of mines, drone and missile attacks and other attempts to block the Strait to commercial shipping, and to comply with UN Security Council Resolution 2817," the nations continued.
"We express our readiness to contribute to appropriate efforts to ensure safe passage through the Strait. We welcome the commitment of nations who are engaging in preparatory planning," they added.
Since the U.S. and Israel launched strikes on Iran last month, the Islamic country has repeatedly targeted energy infrastructure across the Gulf states and has threatened shipping through the Strait of Hormuz – disrupting the global supply of oil.
President Trump earlier this week urged countries that rely heavily on Middle Eastern oil – including China, Japan, South Korea, Britain and France – to contribute naval support to protect the strait, The National News Desk reported.
.
"We strongly encourage other nations whose economies depend on the strait far more than ours," Trump said. "We want them to come and help us."
Trump also warned that NATO countries could face serious consequences if they failed to assist.
This has nothing to do with Iran... The idiots in charge here have killed the golden goose. The oil companies were already planning on leaving. It's just too hard to do business there.
