Inside, the President of the United States points at the opposition in his own country and calls it the greatest enemy of America. Not the regime in Tehran. Not the closed strait. Not the oil price that hits ordinary people every morning at the gas station. The Democratic Party.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What exactly the \u201cdeath of Iran\u201d means, Trump does not explain. The wording is too large for a military assessment and too vague for a political one. It sounds like closure, like victory, like the end of something \u2013 and leaves the reader in the dark about what exactly is meant. That is not an accident. Vague images are filled in by everyone themselves. Everyone sees in them what they want to see.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video alignwide\"><video height=\"360\" style=\"aspect-ratio: 640 \/ 360;\" width=\"640\" controls src=\"https:\/\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/nbcscotbwalker.mp4\"><\/video><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Scott Bessent: \u201cThat is the ONLY language the Iranians UNDERSTAND!\u201d (It affects the civilian population 100% \u2013 editorial note)<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, reality continues on its own path. Scott Bessent, Trump\u2019s Treasury Secretary, appears on NBC and explains that Americans understand the short term pain \u2013 meaning gas prices. Fifty days of higher prices, he says, could mean fifty years of peace in the Middle East. Whether it will really be fifty days, the host asks. Bessent says he does not know. Whether thirty, fifty, one hundred \u2013 he cannot say. Scott Bessent tries to calm the debate. He says there is enough money, additional funds are only meant as a supplement. At the same time, 200 billion dollars are on the table. The number does not match what he is saying. It is an answer that is not an answer. But it comes in a tone that imitates confidence, and sometimes that is enough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the same time, Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, the Speaker of the Iranian Parliament, speaks out. Trump had threatened to attack Iranian power plants if the Strait of Hormuz was not fully opened within 48 hours. Ghalibaf responds: anyone who attacks Iranian infrastructure must expect energy facilities and oil installations across the entire region to become legitimate targets \u2013 irreversibly destroyed, as he writes. Not a threat disguised as a threat. An announcement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tehran itself, meanwhile, denies having fully closed the Strait of Hormuz. Ali Mousavi, Iran\u2019s representative at the International Maritime Organization, says the strait is open \u2013 for everyone except Iran\u2019s enemies. It is a distinction that reads like semantics and is not. It means the passage is controlled, selectively, according to enemy images defined by Tehran itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"kb-factcheck\">\n\n  <div class=\"kb-factcheck-head\">\n    <span>Fact check<\/span>\n    <span class=\"kb-date\">March 22, 2026<\/span>\n  <\/div>\n\n  <div class=\"kb-label kb-partial\">Barely accurate<\/div>\n\n  <p>Iran denies having fully closed the Strait of Hormuz. At the same time, Iran\u2019s representative Ali Mousavi states that the passage does not apply to everyone.<\/p>\n\n  <p>This describes the situation: the route is not completely closed, but it is not free either. Tehran decides who is allowed to pass. There is no fixed list.<\/p>\n\n  <p>For European ships, this means: passage is possible, but not guaranteed. What matters is whether a ship is considered \u201cneutral\u201d or politically assigned.<\/p>\n\n  <p>There is also the actual problem: insurance. Many shipping companies do not enter the strait without coverage. As soon as the risk rises, ships stop.<\/p>\n\n  <p>That is exactly why traffic is backing up. The passage is formally open, but functions only in a limited way. Thousands of ships are waiting, even though they could theoretically sail.<\/p>\n\n  <p>The Strait of Hormuz is therefore currently not a free trade route, but a politically and economically blocked passage.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<style>\n.kb-factcheck {\n  max-width: 780px;\n  margin: 30px auto;\n  padding: 22px 24px;\n  background: #ffffff;\n  border: 1px solid #d6dbe1;\n  border-left: 6px solid #c62828;\n  border-radius: 10px;\n  font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, \"Segoe UI\", Arial, sans-serif;\n  color: #111;\n  box-shadow: 0 6px 18px rgba(0,0,0,0.06);\n}\n\n.kb-factcheck-head {\n  display: flex;\n  justify-content: space-between;\n  font-size: 12px;\n  text-transform: uppercase;\n  letter-spacing: 0.05em;\n  color: #666;\n  margin-bottom: 10px;\n  font-weight: 600;\n}\n\n.kb-date {\n  color: #999;\n}\n\n.kb-label {\n  display: inline-block;\n  margin-bottom: 14px;\n  padding: 6px 12px;\n  font-size: 13px;\n  font-weight: 700;\n  border-radius: 6px;\n}\n\n.kb-partial {\n  background: #fff4e5;\n  color: #b45309;\n  border: 1px solid #f3d19c;\n}\n\n.kb-true {\n  background: #e6f7ed;\n  color: #1b7f4c;\n  border: 1px solid #b7e4c7;\n}\n\n.kb-false {\n  background: #fdecea;\n  color: #b71c1c;\n  border: 1px solid #f5b5b5;\n}\n\n.kb-factcheck p {\n  font-size: 17px;\n  line-height: 1.65;\n  margin: 0 0 14px 0;\n}\n\n.kb-factcheck p:last-child {\n  margin-bottom: 0;\n}\n<\/style>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video\"><video height=\"360\" style=\"aspect-ratio: 640 \/ 360;\" width=\"640\" controls src=\"https:\/\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/waltzfox48.mp4\"><\/video><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Mike Waltz says on Fox News that Trump is serious.

He only says the president is not here for fun. Waltz says the Revolutionary Guards control Iran\u2019s infrastructure and use it for war. That may be true. It is also true that the same infrastructure supplies hospitals, pumps water, heats homes. He does not say that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>Then there was also \u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>German Chancellor Friedrich Merz spoke with Trump on Sunday \u2014 the topics were the war in the Middle East and the situation in Ukraine.

It is a sentence that appears in textbooks and in practice is interpreted by those who currently have the bombs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the same time, the WHO reports that the war has reached one of its most dangerous stages. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, the organization\u2019s Director General, speaks of attacks on the nuclear facility in Natanz and of impacts near Dimona, where Israel operates a nuclear research center. He says attacks on nuclear sites threaten public health and the environment.

More than twenty countries are implementing Trump\u2019s vision. He has spoken with the president several times this week. The U.S. military is acting correctly, because Iran\u2019s nuclear and missile program is an existential threat to the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The word existential is used, and it is used easily. Too easily for what it means.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You sit in front of this information and try to hold it together. A president who announces power plants as targets without saying which ones. A security adviser who confirms this on an entertainment network. A WHO chief speaking of nuclear danger while diplomacy remains silent. A NATO chief invoking harmony and overlooking that harmony in an ongoing war is not a condition, but a claim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What stands out in these hours is not the escalation itself. Escalations have their own logic, and those who observe them eventually learn to read them. What stands out is the normality with which power plants, civilian populations and nuclear sites are spoken about \u2014 as if they were positions on a board, not places where people live.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Rutte says more than twenty countries stand together. He does not say how many of them were asked and how many simply went along because the alternative seemed worse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ghebreyesus says restraint should be exercised. He says it because it is his job to say it. And because no one else says it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Somewhere between these three men and their sentences lies what is actually happening right now. A war that is growing. A rhetoric that talks it down. And a public trying to understand, somewhere between breaking news and talk show appearances, whether what it is seeing is still controlled or already long out of control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>None of the three gives that answer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>\u201cThe greatest\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignwide size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"424\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/batch_kaizenposttumpo34432.webp?resize=640%2C424&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-32431\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/batch_kaizenposttumpo34432.webp?w=905&amp;ssl=1 905w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/batch_kaizenposttumpo34432.webp?resize=18%2C12&amp;ssl=1 18w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/batch_kaizenposttumpo34432.webp?resize=300%2C199&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/batch_kaizenposttumpo34432.webp?resize=768%2C509&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>While all of this is happening, Donald Trump shares on Truth Social an AI generated image from WomenForTrump: a marble statue of himself, wrapped in an American flag. Below it reads: \u201cGreatest president of modern American history. Forever remembered as the G.O.A.T.\u201d You can see this as self promotion. You can see it as distraction. You can see it as stupidity. Maybe it is all of that. Maybe it is none of that, but simply the mental state of a man who, in a moment of global tension, above all wants to ensure that people are talking about him \u2013 and in the way he wants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What remains is an image that imposes itself: a president who, with a war unfolding behind him, does not point at the war, but inward. Who uses the moment not to explain, but to distribute \u2013 blame, hostility, attention. Gas prices rise. The strait remains contested. And the greatest enemy of America, according to the president, sits in Washington. In the other party.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anyone who believes that no longer needs to understand foreign policy.
