#1 Khamenei Posts ‘The Zionist Enemy Is Being Punished’ as One Missile Lands in Israel

Though it was the second missile in as many days to hit the city, where Jews and Arabs both live, it was a sign of a vastly diminished Iranian attack capability. The size and frequency of missile barrages has fallen steadily.

Khamenei’s bluster seemed disconnected from the reality of conflict, as the IDF struck many targets in Iran overnight, including nuclear sites, missile production facilities, and key symbols of the Iranian regime.

#2 ^IRGC are terrorists just like Hamas or Hezbollah. Now, they won't become terrorists with nukes.

#3 Guess we are going to find out how deep Israel’s reserves of ADA missiles are. Already two US destroyers emptying VLS tubes to help out

#5 I would guess some of Iran's missiles are from Ukraine.

#6 Putin said today that he won't be evacuating the Russian nuclear scientists from the Bushehr Nuclear Power Plant. Keeps the Israelis from really targeting anything there.

Kind of like 'human shields' as one might say.

#9 Guess we are going to find out how deep Israel’s reserves of ADA missiles are.

Let us not forget the other part of the equation: How quickly can the IDF reduce Iran's ability to launch missiles? Every day, the Israelis are out hunting launchers and missile stockpiles.

#10 Good point, but speaking more generally: however many missiles we're building it's not nearly enough and not nearly soon enough.

#11 I recently read that Israel has destroyed about half of Iran’s missile launchers. A day or two before that they’d destroyed a third, so progress is being made rapidly.
