MORNING GLORY: President Trump and the American military have beaten Iran
Summary
Fox News columnist Hugh Hewitt argues that Iran has failed to close the Strait of Hormuz because Gulf exporters, led by the United Arab Emirates, are using an alleged “Hormuz Shuttle” through an Oman-adjacent route, supported by U.S. forces. He cites analyst Alexander Stahel’s estimate of roughly 116 participating vessels and claims oil exports have recovered to 80–90% of January levels for most regional producers. Hewitt also describes intensified U.S. sanctions, military operations, and pressure on Tehran to abandon its nuclear and missile programs.

Biblical Context
The article concerns an escalating confrontation involving Iran, Israel, Gulf states, military force, threats to Israel, and a possible regional alignment. Scripture materially addresses hostile nations and future conflict involving Israel, so the subject is biblically relevant. Ezekiel 38 specifically names Persia among nations associated with a future attack against Israel; however, the article does not report the distinctive elements of that prophecy, such as the identified coalition, Gog’s invasion of the land, or the prophetic divine judgment described in the passage. Therefore, the comparison is limited and should not be treated as evidence of fulfillment. The article’s shipping, sanctions, oil-market, and military claims are not themselves specifically described in Scripture. Biblical Prophecy remains No.
Biblical Sources
Scripture references supporting the biblical context above.
This passage describes a future coalition against Israel and names Persia among the participating peoples. It provides a legitimate biblical basis for monitoring Iran-related conflict involving Israel, while the article lacks enough of the passage’s distinctive features to identify the reported events as fulfillment.
