@BradDuplessis Brad, your kid is presumably great because you seem to *get* all of the things that matter.

@WeaponScientist I mean, it's still a story. Israel is content to start wars of aggression with the understanding that we'll cover their airspace with limited, critical munitions. Yeah they shot off loads of Arrow last round, but that doesn't negate their willingness to let us protect them.
@FudgeSmith111 Iran understands the massive political cost for us to go boots on the ground, and assess (correctly) that we won't. And they have demonstrated an ability to soak up airstrikes without regime collapse. And they're about to get 300 billion to rebuild.
@FudgeSmith111 Multiple things are true. We wrecked Iran's conventional military (planes and ships and things) but also demonstrated that their unconventional stuff (primarily drones) can close the SOH, giving them incredible leverage
