Israel Effortlessly Swats Down Iranian Munitions
Published 7 months ago
Out of the 300 plus Iranian missiles and drones fired at Israel, seven made it through, which equates to a 2% success rate (98% failure rate). Regardless, Iran's missiles were pointed at irrelevant desert, as nothing more than a show of force.
As "WWIII" keeps trending on Twitter regarding the Iranian-Israel tensions, keep in mind this is just theatrics. Iran had to "retaliate" to show their clueless citizenry they will respond to Israeli strikes, but their reprisal attacks were symbolic in nature, with no targeting of significant sites.
If you even wondered why the US continues to let Iran exist, it's because they play the role of useful idiot in the region. We hype Iran up as the Middle Eastern boogeyman, and it allows us to project continuous military military force in the region.
