[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Israel bit off more than they chew. I mean if Gaza and Lebanon were a challenge and the Houthis were a challenge, I don’t know they thought cutting the head off the proverbial snake would be easy.

Reports say Trump declined to assassinate ayatollah or invade Iran.

One political analysts take:

The problem is that Iran is responding with relative restraint and proportionality, which makes it difficult for Israel to formally draw the US into war.

Their entire goal seems to be to try and bait Iran into using excess force putting them in a disadvantagous position so that the US has no choice but to help intervene. Notable is that the US has the bunker buster bombs that Israel requires to attack installations deep within mountainous areas. [/quote]

Sure, Iran's indiscriminate launching of ballistic missiles exclusively into residential neighborhoods exemplifies restraint and proportionality, while those rascally Israelis limit themselves to military and nuclear-related targets.  Very restrained and proportional of those virtuous and sadly maligned Iranians.  [/quote]
