🇺🇸🇮🇷 American forces could probably seize Iran’s Gulf islands. Holding them is the part nobody has solved…
The military logic is seductive.
Kharg moves roughly 90 percent of Iran’s crude exports.
Qeshm hosts the fast boat fleet harassing shipping.
Larak watches the strait. Take those three and the chokehold weakens overnight.
Geography ruins it.
Kharg sits about 25 kilometers off the mainland, which means any garrison lands inside artillery, drone, and missile range of a country that has spent five months proving it keeps firing no matter what gets bombed.
Marines would be defending fixed positions with the sea behind them and Iranian television filming every hit.
And the strait still would not open.
Iran holds 1,700 kilometers of coastline, with estimates putting Bandar Abbas alone at 17,000 Marines to secure.
The Artesh, more than 350,000 strong, has barely fought yet.
Taking that ground would be the short part of the operation, and holding it would be the war.
