Trump’s war is uniting the world, just not how he might have expected

AI Summary
The article discusses the international response to a war initiated by Donald Trump and Israel against Iran. It argues that Trump's actions have backfired, failing to garner support from allies and instead pushing them towards new alliances. Specifically, the Financial Times reported that allies rejected Trump's request for warships to open the Strait of Hormuz. The article suggests that Trump's approach, contrasting with advice from books like "How to Win Friends and Influence People," has alienated leaders and created incentives for major powers like China and Japan to unite against a potential global crisis. The war has strained US relations with these countries, particularly impacting Japan's relationship with both the US and China, as evidenced by the events surrounding Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi's visit to Washington.
