Would Americans support US troops seizing and occupying Kharg Island ?

[yidnar]

I keep hearing we had to go to war with Iran because they killed 1,000 Americans over 47 years

If it’s was that serious Congress could have declared war, right?

did Congress declare war when we drove Saddam out of Kuwait ? did Congress declare war when Obama bombed Libya for 7 months ..

 

[yidnar]

So when are YOU enlisting?

to old to reenlist commie ..

 

[yidnar]

Suddenly you care about Iranian citizens?

the commies are enraged over the possibility that Iranian women may be free after 47 yrs of abuse , and oppression ..

Show of hands, who thinks parking a Marine expeditionary force on an Island with no cover and in range of every enemy drone and missile is a good idea?

Because the Iranians are willing to destroy the port through which they export 90% of their oil?

What's their mission, assuming Iran allows them to land on the island?

Stop the flow of Iranian oil.
Iran doesn't have the ability to oppose the landing.

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 ?

Let’s take it then charge these European twats a protection fee to get their ships through.

WTF is Iran going to do about it?

 

[CrusaderFrank]

WTF is Iran going to do about it?

The wars over right?

Has Trump picked their leader yet?

the operation is in its 18th day .. what condition do you think Iranian leadership and their military will be in 30 days from now .. this may be over in 4 to 6 weeks .

 

[Zincwarrior]

the Strait isn't closed .. ships are just not risking the crossing .. Iran has no naval or aerial blockade ..

Same difference. Tankers are not going through.

 

[yidnar]

Same difference. Tankers are not going through.

not the same .. it will be resolved in a few weeks ..

 

[80zephyr]

Most logical one is don't land there

We cannot be sure what the reasons were for the invasion.

Jared's Tingling Spidey Sense

Then Trump thinks that Iran is going to take a call from either Witkoff or Jared LOL

We may never know. I think that maybe their nuclear capability wasn't destroyed like we thought it was.

So what? Seriously

I haven’t lost a single night sleep over Iran’s Imaginary Nuclear Capability

 

[AsherN]

What's gonna impede their passage? YOU?

Iran controls the Strait.

 

[AsherN]

the Strait isn't closed .. ships are just not risking the crossing .. Iran has no naval or aerial blockade ..

Ships transiting the Strait are in range of land based missiles. And drones.

 

[Clipper]

the attacks from Iran have diminished over 90% .. and Kharg Island has nothing left to launch attacks with .. cry harder ..

So if we occupy Kharg, Iran's leadership will just lay down their arms & beg Trump for mercy, that it?

If you think that then you have absolutely no idea about the workings & teachings of radical Islam.

But go right on thinking that if it makes you feel better.

I trust the IDF and their intelligence capabilities. If they believe Karg Island can be safely secured that would be a good strategic move.

 

[CrusaderFrank]

yidnar

did Congress declare war when we drove Saddam out of Kuwait ? did Congress declare war when Obama bombed Libya for 7 months ..

That's EXACTLY my point!

Look at where we are today, $40 Trillion in debt and start started WWIII in Iran

 

[SeaMajor7]

Iran controls the Strait.

I nominate you for the new sUpReMe LeAdEr.
Good luck.
