Would Americans support US troops seizing and occupying Kharg Island ?

[kyzr]

That's EXACTLY my point! Look at where we are today, $40 Trillion in debt and start started WWIII in Iran

Its not WW3 yet. If we get regime change in Iran we prevented WW3.

 

[Deadstick]

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 ?

Libya?

Same difference. Tankers are not going through.

Yes, tankers are currently transiting through the Strait of Hormuz, including Iranian oil tankers, as the U.S. has allowed them to continue to supply global markets despite ongoing tensions in the region. However, tanker traffic has significantly decreased due to security concerns

My guess is that it will return to normal soon.

NOT a good idea....men and women will get killed....Iranians don't cower either...this is life or death to them.

And what would be the fricking EXIT STRATEGY? How long being there? How many billions will it cost tax payers.

 

[Zincwarrior]

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

Yes. There was Congressional authorization for the Iraq wars.

Authorization for Use of Military Force Against Iraq Resolution of 1991 - Wikipedia

These aren't declarations of war, as the question asked for.

Same thing. Congress voted. Trump couldn't be bothered.

Mostly death for the IRGC

And what would be the fricking EXIT STRATEGY? How long being there? How many billions will it cost tax payers.

The exit strategy depends on how the rest of the war goes. It can be regime change, or it can be "mowing the grass" every few years if Iran keeps the current Jihadist regime. Stay tuned, keep watching the chess game being play out.

 

[M14 Shooter]

Same thing.

You're lying.
After the authorization of force, Bush was still restrained by the War Powers Act.
Had there been a declaration of war, as you claim, the War Powers Act would no longer apply.

Thus:
These aren't declarations of war, as the question asked for.

Their choice.

Probably less than sending planeloads of cash to the enemy.

Obama sent pallet loads of cash, totaling $56,000,000,000 to Iran, which they used to develop nuclear bombs and ICBMs with.

Iran started is war and Trump is ending it

Just like Afghanistan started the war with the USA by providing cover for Osama bin Laden and other jihadists.
Afghanistan started it and we ended it? How did that work out.

In a battle for the island of Kharg, if there is damage done to the infrastructure that supports the oil depot watch the price of oil spike like it never has before.
