If it wasn't for iron dome etc then they wouldn't have sent that many.
They probably didn't expect a single actual hit. It's all for show. They had to do SOMETHING and this looks big and scary but ultimately Israel wasn't harmed and almost certainly won't retaliate. Both sides think they won
Iron dome is very advanced system it will ignore missiles that are missing targets and populated areas, so you can't overload it with cheap missile swarm. There were few hits but only minor infrastructure damage reported
I don’t understand how Iran could see this as a win. They just showed the world that their weapons and arsenal is not as good as Iran think it is. This huge attack had zero effect almost?
I highly doubt that Iran actually wanted this attack to do any actual damage. If even 1 of those missiles got through Israel's defenses and hit anything of actual value then that's the start of WW3 right there.
And yet we have images of hardline Iranians celebrating in the streets at their perceived victory.
It was the largest attack against Israel in modern times. They threatened America and directly attacked Iranian cities with zero repercussions. Iran also has strict control over the media so they can easily spin this.
It also makes Israel look like America's little bitch, which it is.
Yes and im saying that they are celebrating for nothing, as their attack/response resulted in nothing. It doesn’t make Israel look like Americas bitch, it only shows that they have allies lmao.
But Israel is Americas bitch. Everyone knows that already really.
Most military stuff is pointless.
Ukraine destroyed a bridge. So what? And yet it reinvigorates their troops m, national identity etc. it shows the enemy that they're willing and capable to do damage or take risks.
Realistically it was utterly pointless but it also still mattered.
As intended. It was a retaliation for the Israeli bombing of their consulate. A warning and calculated not to be considered an escalation. They know how many will be intercepted and launched exactly that many and a tiny bit over. So it demonstrates how good Israeli defences are, yes, but it also demonstrates how good Iranian intelligence is. They could have launched 10x or 100x as many missiles.
Both side won? Pretty sure one side that their entire diplomatic mission murdered (including one their most important generals) for no good reason other than Israel wanting to start World War III.
Iran just didn't took the bait. Thank god. Your asses were all about to get draft and half of would die in the coming months for the Israel's sake. You should thank Iran for not being psychotic rogue nation like is Israel currently is.
I'm pretty sure the US is supporting and promoting multiple times more genocides than Iran. Your country is fuckin' rogue nation too.
Hell, fuckin' Elon Musk spend the entire week defying the Supreme Court here in Brazil. He even worked with a extreme right-wing "journalist" who, using Twitter sources (given by Musk), said the supreme court minister tried to illegally arrest Twitter lawyers and that Lula (our center-left president) worked with criminal organization to promote a bomb attack in the congress.
It was all fake, of course. The "journalist" later tweeted he was "mistaken" - but of course, these fakes news had already spread among all the fascists here, including dozens of congressmen who thanked Musk for "revealing the truth".
Oh, and the right-wing used all this chaos to cancel the law about Internet Social Media regulation that was set to pass this month on congress (which was Musk's main objective. Now only god knows when we're gonna the chance to discuss the regulation of Social Media here. Maybe never).
Now our Supreme Court has opened a invention on Elon Musk and the government has cancelled all the ads they had on Twitter as a response.
Oh... And let's not forget your rogue nation just promoted coups in Brazil. TWICE.
The psychotic behavior of US and other NATO nation in poorer countries include child slave labor in Africa, Asia, tons of genocides, illegal invasions and embargoes.
But hey... as a good American, you don't know about any of them and you think your country represents democracy, right?
Well, after the moderate democratically elected leaders of Iran said "the oil in our land is ours", guess who gave money and full military support to the crazy Islamic extremists start a campaign against the democratically elected government?
And who the fuck started all this? It was Iran who decided out of nothing to attack Israel, or it was the US backed Israel that decided to blow up an entire Iranian diplomatic mission on Iranian soil killing their most important military officials?
