Iran telegraphed the attack, why the hell didn't Netanyahu fight back IMMEDIATELY. Missiles should have been on their way to every possible location for Ali Khamenei. Then Iran wouldn't be able to threaten to "strike again with greater force if Israel or US retaliate." Fighting Back is not retaliation.

JIM, There is much truth in what you say, but the idea is to limit the war, not add fuel to the fire.

Your opinion is that "fighting back" is adding "fuel to the fire." My opinion in this case is that "fighting back" is"Throwing Fire Retardent on the fire." Political Hot Air" (carbon dioxide) will never work with Iran.Their BS will go on forever.

Jim, Israel has a remarkable technology for such a tiny country. There very well may be a war with Iran, especially if this continuing escalation after escalation continues. Too many people have died in the Mideast. Israel has made its point by shooting down 99% of the missles, and drones. The less bloodshed the better. Who knows, maybe peace will break out one day.

You are the eternaL optimist. I agree Israel has a remarkable technology but they piss away millions of $$$ shooting down drones instead of devising a way to hack the guidance signal & turn them back on the aggressor.

You aren't thinking LONG GAME, this might be a strategy. Lull Iran into thinking that the drones are really doing something. When reality is drones are impotent and shot down easily. Then Israel's offense begins.
