Israel is incredibly powerful and smart. That little piece of land of Israel has been surrounded by enemies for decades and has squashed all conflict via technology, medicine, weapon etc. What is not covered is that Iran fired 500+ missiles at Israel but roughly only over half 300ish+ made it to the air. Everyone saw the fireworks, right? Naturally, US would support such a defense system.
They also told Israel they were firing all those missiles. It was just a bunch of war theater.

But the threat was never real. How can it be real if your enemy gets only 60% of missiles in the air if they're using supposedly top of the line technology? The other 40 missing fire?

How else do you write things off? You have to play the media!

A lot of this stuff is done for reasons of domestic politics, rather than military strategy. It can make things pretty hard to interpret.

Seems like they are just asking for sympathy. I thought militaries are strong now days, cant they just drop a nuke or something?

A way to get rid of their garbage so they can buy more.

I just dont get Israel. If it is so bad and wartorn...MOVE.

But they're winning? I'm not supporting them. Don't mistake me. I think it's ridiculous if we look from a third POV. What country did the weapons come from? How did they get them is the better question.
reply
Are they winning? Who actually wins in a war?

If I recall, Israel did retaliate, but instead of random shots. They went for one of their underground research shacks. Minimum death, max pain. If someone is able to slow down your technology, it can be considered a win. As Iran doesn't have the ability to think outside the box. Does it make them inferior? No, just brainwashed.
