The Iranians launched a large-scale drone and missile attack on Israel from bases inside its boundaries yesterday. The attack was a complete failure. Virtually all of the objects were intercepted by the Israelis and their allies, little damage was done, and nobody died.
Having essentially gotten away with their targeted attack on Revolutionary Guard leaders, and exposed Iran’s inability to breach their defenses, will the Israelis count their winnings, or retaliate in kind? Isn’t one full-scale war in Gaza enough?
You would certainly think so. My only concern is that Bibi might see an opportunity to lure America into a direct conflict with Iran that neither Biden nor the Iranians desire by attacking the Iranian heartland. That possibility cannot be completely discounted.
