Iran failed at defending their country

[Renew Deal]

Iran has allowed Israel to attack more or less at will. There are no signs that Iran has been able to defend themselves and Israel claims they have aerial superiority in Iran's skies. That happened in less than 24 hours. But that's not the only problem for them. Trump and the US made it known the attack was coming. Israel's tactics of decapitation strikes are also well-known. But they allowed their leaders to be attacked at home. It's a complete failure.

You think that's bad? You have to read this statement from today:

“The offensive operations of the Armed Forces of the Islamic Republic will continue with greater force and scope if these hostilities and aggressions persist,” the IRGC said.

If they persist? Israel told you they will persist. They all but said the words "we declare war." Is the IRGC stupid enough to think that this will end quickly? And are they also dumb enough to think that tough talk maters? The only thing that matters is action.

Iran should have been prepared for Israels tactics of using planes, drones, and missiles. They should have had a robust counterattack plan and capability. Israel thinks that Iran has around 2000 missiles. That's less than a month's worth at the current usage rate.

The one thing that countries like Iran, Syria and entities like Hamas and Hezbollah are good at is oppressing their own people. But they have otherwise gotten complacent and not taken the threats of outside actors seriously. They thought that tough, scary talk mattered. It doesn't matter if people pay attention to actions, not words.
