[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]🇺🇸 President Trump considers US boots on the ground to seize Iran's Kharg Island oil depot, Axios reports.

Trump is also weighing a seizure of Iran's critical oil depot on Kharg Island — a move that would require U.S. boots on the ground — if tankers remain bottled up in the Persian Gulf, U.S. officials say.

The Battle of Hormuz[/quote]

Kharg Island is 500 miles northwest of Hormuz. Sending the Marines in to take Kharg guarantees the Strait of Hormuz will be mined and closed to all shipping for likely years. If Iran can't export its oil, no one can.

To take Kharg, the Marines will have to fly in by helicopter from Kuwait. And Kharg is within easy drone and artillery range from the Iranian mainland. It's going to be a high casualty battle. [/quote]
