Trump: Death, fire, and fury will reign upon Iran if Strait of Hormuz blocked US President Donald Trump on Tuesday warned Iran it would face massive retaliation and that "Death, Fire, and Fury will reign upon them" if it continues attempts to block oil shipments through the Strait of Hormuz. Writing on his Truth Social platform, Trump said Iran would be struck “twenty times harder” if it disrupted the flow of oil through the critical maritime choke point. “Additionally, we will take out easily destroyable targets that will make it virtually impossible for Iran to ever be built back, as a Nation, again — Death, Fire, and Fury will reign upon them — But I hope, and pray, that it does not happen!” he said. Trump framed his stance as a broader effort to safeguard international energy markets, describing it as a “gift from the United States of America to China, and all of those Nations that heavily use the Hormuz Strait”. “Hopefully, it is a gesture that will be greatly appreciated,” he added.
