So, the influence is used as Block. It isnt fire Block just because Threaten is a red card.
I'm not sure, but I think he's asking about the advanced effect of Diplomacy, which lets you use influence as either Fire Block or Ice Block.
Ah yes, late night gaming, and I was tired :)
So, yes. You can play the stronger effect of Diplomacy for Influence 4 and choose Fire. So, now you may use Influence as Fire Block, and you currently have 4 Fire Block.
If you then play Threaten for 2 (or 5) Influence, that gives you an extra 2 (or 5) Fire Block.
The resistance of an enemy makes no difference here.
