Trump now wants to 'sieze' Kharg Island and control Iran's oil exporting

Dunno how Trump will just 'take' it. But he probably thinks he can justify it by saying how the oil terminal set up by Amoco was 'taken' by Iran in 1979.

The Island was never US territory. Neither was the smaller (uninhabited) one just north of it.

There are 6 pipelines joining the oil terminal on Kharg to the Iranian mainland.

Just another step in the 'no foreign wars' initiative. If you claim it as your country, it's no longer foreign. Putin knows this argument.
