Much depends on the land. If it by the coast and all desert any US beachhead may be very difficult to attack as US has complete air dominance. US could even use it as a bargining chip

Remember when the US pilot crashed in Iran?

US forces quickly established a security perimeter around the crash site while the rescue operation was underway, using aircraft and other assets to secure the area until the pilot was recovered.

Now imagine that concept applied on a much larger and more permanent scale. A heavily militarised zone would likely be defended with substantial military resources to deter or prevent incursions. History has shown that maintaining such positions can be costly and risky—as seen in places like Beirut and Somalia—but if a state is determined to hold a strategic area, it will often commit significant forces and adopt robust security measures to defend it.
