Iran exports some 90% of its oil through Kharg Island, as 12 square mile island 35 miles off the coat of Iran.

Kharg Island has lots of storage tanks, loading facilities, pumping stations,  a power plant, an airport, an natural gas liquefication facility and a desalination plant.

It would be terrible, just terrible, should the island be attacked and the facilities obliterated. Just...awful. 

It has happened before. Iraq bombed it multiple times during the Iran-Iraq War, hurting but not crippling its capacity.

About 40%  of Iran's entire governmental revenue comes from oil exports. Any unthinkable, banish-the-thought attack on Kharg Island would have an instant and devastating impact on Iran's economy. The Islamic Republic would certainly not have the funds necessary to keep paying Hamas and Hezbollah and Islamic Jihad and the Houthis and armed groups in Iraq to the levels it has been supporting them. 

Think of the children of those terrorists who would lose their luxury apartments!

Such an attack would accomplish what US sanctions have not since the Biden administration. It would make Saudi Arabia, the UAE and other Gulf countries happy. China would be disappointed, since Iran is selling them oil at a steep discount, and then they would have to pay other Gulf countries market value.

What a shame that would be.

If Iran attacks Israeli infrastructure, like power plants or natural gas fields, it would not be a disproportionate response to make Kharg Island look like Gaza City does nowadays. 

That would be just horrible! How could anyone even think of such a thing? Tsk, tsk.
