Trump Rejects Iran Peace Response as Tensions Escalate at Strait of Hormuz

Trump has declared Iran's response to a US peace proposal 'totally unacceptable,' while Iran's IRGC threatens attacks on US bases and European warships approaching the Strait of Hormuz, as ceasefire violations mount and the Ayatollah meets with top military commanders to assess war readiness. The collision course between Iran, Israel's allies, and Western naval forces in the Persian Gulf mirrors the biblical buildup toward a climactic Middle East conflict centred on the nations surrounding Israel. Scripture repeatedly identifies Persia — modern-day Iran — as a key aggressor in the end-times coalition described in Ezekiel 38, moving against Israel in the latter days.
