blockading is a safer, cheaper, and nearly blood-free strategy that is just as effective as “taking” Kharg Island ... any strategy Iran might have to slaughter thousands of USA soldiers via mass suicide waves is totally neutralized in a battle to “take” Kharg Island, and can be maintained indefinitely ...

Kharg is NOT Iwo Jima. We have a lot more tech and overmatch at our disposal now. Don't you remember over thirty years ago, Iraqis surrendering to UAVs in Desert Storm?
