But if it wasn’t true, we’d hear about it. No shortage of Israel’s enemies in ME to show that, bragging, were it not true.

More sobering western analysis shows at least 9 ballistic missiles hit two airbases at both ends of Israel, which would bring the percentage of missiles that made it through Israeli/Allied air defenses closer to 10%.

Then there is the matter of what defending the missile barrage cost and what might happen if Iran launched a longer more focused barrage at their enemies in the region. I'm sure the Saudi and Jordanian governments are reassessing their own commitments and vulnerabilities in light of the Iranian strike.
