Would Americans support US troops seizing and occupying Kharg Island ?

[Deadstick]

It would not surprise me if Iran were not trying to buy time in order to mine the storage facilities on Kharg to blow it up if the Marines land there hoping to take out as much of our guys as possible while making the place useless to us.

Definition of insanity: fighting an unwinnable war against a foe 10X your might with belligerence and obstinance right down to the very last man on pure pride, arrogance, and principle alone, irregardless of the fact that it'll leave everything you built in ruin, and in the end, you still lose anyway.

How would they land?

How would they land?

They come ashore is a captured Iranian naval ship. Just as Iran thinks china has arrived with supplies, our Marines roll ashore.

BTW, do you even know what a deadstick is? You ever work around high power transmitters or anything?

 

[toobfreak]

Gee you sure have a lot of respect for the USA don't you? I guess you don't know that Trump holds all the cards in NATO.

I can tell you right now that NATO has burned a bridge behind them now they could not afford to burn. Just wait until they need the US for something, like some of that Iranian oil your lives depend on.

With a snap of our fingers, Trump could cut all of Europe off from oil and gas next winter leaving them begging for supplies from Russia, the very country they are sorta, kinda opposing with Ukraine.

In fact, if we wanted to, we could probably disrupt the Gulf-stream which supplies warmth to the UK and northwestern Europe, plunging all of you blokes into a perpetual nuclear winter.

And never forget, 500 psychiatrists stated that Trump is a crazy bastard who could go off at any time.

LCAC, you dumbass.

LCAC, you dumbass.

You don't control any of the coast you Dumb bastard, you had more control on the coast of Iwo Jima than the Iranian coast.

I have zero respect for the maniac in the White House, it looks like he is having a nervous breakdown.

I'm sure that just breaks Trump up bad.

The Iranians would have that Island covered by missiles and Drones so good luck with that nonsense.

Pegasus Bridge: Operation Deadstick's Glider Assault

During Operation Deadstick, a bold British glider assault seized Pegasus Bridge in the early hours of the D-Day invasion.

So, the Iranians are going bomb and blow up the very life blood which all their economy depends on?

Good plan.

You still don't even really know what a deadstick is, do ya?

 

[westwall]

You moron, we can land ANYWHERE we want, at anytime. The Iranians can't prevent it.

Remember sweetcheeks, unlike your royal navy with 10 operating vessels, we have hundreds.

Dumb as dumb Don. Good Lord!!

MIGA!!!!!

 

[JoeB131]

No, the plo, who were a terrorist organization. But yeah, we shouldn't be anywhere around the world but we are. Thats the reality.

I'm not going to argue your ignorance of events.

Short version: the PLO agreed to remove its fighters from Lebanon and relocate them to Tunisia.

The Christian Militias moved into refugee camps at Sharbra and Shatilia and slaughted women and children.

That's why Ronnie Raygun scammed the UN into sending a force.

We've all seen the reports of the USS Tripoli headed towards the Persian Gulf carrying thousands of Marines , Armor , ect .. It wouldn't be a surprise if said troops are being sent to occupy Kharg Island, an area of critical strategic and economic importance to the Islamofascist regime in Iran .. Even though there's a very good chance that US troops will not face any major resistance if they land on Kharg Island , would it still been seen as a reversal of Trumps claim of no boots on the ground in Iran ? or would Americans view the occupation of said undefended island as not putting troops on the ground in Iran? would Americans view it as a good strategic move to put even more pressure on the Islamofascist regime ?

No , trump is lying about everything now. Not willing to lose more people because of his lies.

 

[luiza]

Can't they have a practise exercise first ?
Let them get used to fighting after their traumatic experiences in Afghanistan and Ukraine .

Think of the families back home .
They are the ones that will have to live with the ridicule if the US only manages a draw at best .

 

[Clipper]

That map shows the reality, the US couldn't get a rowing boat in there, a land attack say from Iraq would take hundreds of thousands of troops from Iraq and what do they think the Iranians would be doing while they build up those forces? as for Kharg Island that just leaves the option of a airborne drop and a Chopper air landing brigade, there is one word for it, Suicide.

Iran hasen't been shooting many surface to air missles lately. Why not? Because they're saving them & lying in wait to see if we invade Kharg. If we do, all hell will break loose & no way in hell are they going to allow the U.S. to occupy that island. They'll blow it to pieces first. Oil will be $150 plus/ barell if that happens.The worldwide economic fallout will make the 1920's look like an Easter parade.

Trump, despite his bluster & bullshit is a cornered rat right now with no way out.

You could be right about Dumb Don. He’s put himself in this position all for Israel. Either the Epstein blackmail is very damaging or he’s the dumbest MFer ever to be potus.

He is insane, he said he could run the strait of Hormuz with a Iranian Mullaha
