Scripture: Proverbs 21:31 (NASB 1977)
"The horse is prepared for the day of battle,
But victory belongs to the LORD."
Commentary:
Proverbs grounds this kind of alliance friction: nations prepare, restrict, and reposition, yet outcomes don’t stay in human hands. Spain’s refusal to open airspace and bases shows how quickly “friends” draw lines when a war expands. It’s practical. Flights need corridors, fuel, and permissions.

As conflict with Iran widens, alliance access and basing rights become bargaining chips, revealing fragile international order and accelerating power-bloc realignment.
