We don't have a sustainable munitions stockpile or logistics backbone to support a war with a real country like Iran. Like it or not they are a real nation and we were too chickenshit to go after Pakistan after 9/11 because we were scared of them even though US troops kept killing terrorists with Paki government ID cards.

Seems like it wouldn't be hard to have suicide anti-drones to attack the slow moving suicide drones.

They probably can shoot the drones down. The question is whether this is just orchestrated theater, or if they and their proxies are going to launch more shit when the drones are close to arrival.

Didn't Biden go to Delaware for vacation this weekend?
View Quote


That FJB is actually returning to DC from his weekly beach trip, makes me think there may be substance to this latest Iran-Israel situation. Beyond a few nominal strikes from Iran, anyway.

On the other hand, maybe his handlers told him to fly to DC for a few photo ops - and then he can return to Delaware for a few extra days of fun in the sun.  A win - win.

I would expect Israel to make a preemptive strike. He who delivers the first punch does the most damage.

OK...I'm not understanding how a couple dozen drones...like 5+ hours away...are going to penetrate air space that was shooting down 100% of inbound artilleries?
Unless these things have a nuclear payload, cant they just be shot down?
Scramble some jets and have target practice....preferable over someone elses airspace?

They did not attack an embassy, but a building next to the embassy. It was headquarters of Iranian military operation that coordinated and supplied attacks on Israel from Lebanon and Gaza.

That those killed were involved in the planning and facilitating of proxies that are actively attacking Israel.   To include Oct 7th.   Israel made it known that going after the octopus tentacles wasn't enough and that they would be targeting the head of the octopus.

Unless there is more to it then they have no real intention of penetrating. It’s for internal consumption

Isn't it crazy that right before the last presidential election the entire world went insane in a way that overwhelmingly helped team Biden's election.... And now 4 years later on the verge of another election it looks like the whole world might go to war in a way that would help Biden's reelection.

It is a saturation attack.   I am betting that the drones will be quickly followed by cruise missiles, unguided rockets from all proxies, and ballistic missiles so that they all reach the target area about the same time in hopes of overwhelming air defenses and something, or a lot of things squeak through

The Israelis won't use their ABMs (Arrow) to shoot down some drones and cruise missiles. It's overkill. They have other systems that are much more efficient and appropriate for that job.
