How do you know what his objective was? I’m serious. How do you know all that armament, mostly ineffective low grade armament was not launched for the sole purpose of depleting Israel’s (and US) missile defense systems? How many billion dollars did that little foray cost us? It cost Iran a few hundred thousand bucks, tops, and Biden already gifted them that much.

Long range cruise and ballistic missiles, even Iran’s, are not THAT cheap.

The many aircraft shootdowns of drones are probably worth it just for the training. (Our pilots in the Red Sea have commented to such effect, tho’ if you get to 7 shot down by one pilot, as we did vs. the Houthis, maybe it’s time to have a different pilot have at it. ;-)...... )

Plus, it is pretty certain Israel WILL exact cost in return.
