True,

But as I have written elsewhere, the threat will increase because you can expect much more lethal weapons to proliferate into these places in the future.

It’s possible the missiles were fired at the USS Carney or launched towards another target.

What matters is - if hit is this an act of war? And what's our next step? Do they use the right pronouns? Is that more important?

“It’s possible the missiles were fired at the USS Carney or launched towards another target.”

Well I guess that about covers it.

How many other targets would be allowed to be near a US Navy vessel?
Seems pretty damn clear it was shot at the Carney!
How media covers for the scumbags of the earth!

Yes, Iran has been spoiling for a naval engagement for a long, long time. They really want to sink US Navy ships, especially damaging or sinking an air craft carrier.

They built a scale model of a US carrier and have filmed attacks on it to show on television to prove how strong they are.

I think that those that don’t learn the lessons of history are condemned to repeat them. In particular, Iran did not learn the lessons of history during Operation Praying Mantis. This was an attack on 18 April 1988 by the United States Armed Forces within Iranian territorial waters in retaliation for the Iranian naval mining of international waters in the Persian Gulf during the Iran–Iraq War and the subsequent damage to an American warship.

Perhaps it is time for the US military to remind Iran of what happens when they damage US Navy warships.

How much did we give them to shoot at us? Should we send more?

Approximately 2-3 missiles were intercepted, according to the second official.

Crude "bottle rockets" made from water pipes intercepted by million-dollar 21st century guided missiles.

Did the serial numbers on the projectiles match ones on weapons the USA provided to Ukraine?
It might take an intrepid reporter (Seymour Hersh comes to mind), but a bunch of people who truly know better will be sputtering soon: “I am so shocked and surprised.”
Expect Kamala H to invoke Magic 8 Ball (#8 turned sideways looks like a Venn diagram).
