Layman's view from me:

The US and Israel should mine the ports and harbors of Kharg Island, and use drones to surveil and protect. 

Everyone says oil-tanker captains will never run a mine blockade, or even the mere threat of mines.

90% of Iranian oil leaves through Kharg Island.

Seems like a low-risk, high-leverage op to mine Kharg Island.

Keep up pressure on missile-launchers, drones, and all new production, wipe out any factory even related to missile-drone production.

I sure hope Trump doesn't do a TACO. He let Hamas off the hook. Trump has been better on the IRGC than any previous president, but...he also likes to do a deal.

  I believe at this point Trump is squeezing the countries that did not help the USA when called on. They badly need the oil tankers flowing through. We will pay more for gas here in the USA, but will not suffer any serious shortages due to Trump's "Drill Baby Drill" philosophy +Venezuela. Trump has ALL the leverage now on both "friends" and foe.  Trump now has the USA in the catbird seat. This includes Trump setting NATO straight.

RS--

From your lips to G-d's ears.

Trump is the first President to deal with the IRGC in a language they understand.

But Trump can be mercurial, impetuous, vainglorious.

I wish he had let the hammer drop on Hamas, once and for all.

Now, all the more incumbent upon him to wipe out the IRGC.

There will never be peace in the Middle Eastr as long as the IRGC exists, or they are totally defanged (and even that would require "annual" visits to wipe out new facilities).
