The insane-appearing Iranian strategy of shooting missiles at neighboring (Islamic) countries is clearly an attempt to run the U.S. out of ammunition.

Our play is apparently to destroy most of their missile launchers before reaching that point.

Shooting $20K drones and cheap missiles with $1M Patriot and other missiles is not sustainable long-term for the U.S.

The best outcome may depend upon Iran’s regular army, the Artesh, joining the side of the people. I have no doubt that the U.S. is pursuing this vigorously with many enticements.

At the moment, it appears that the Pentagon has been preparing to fight the wrong war. We should have been tooling up with lasers and drones.

Rare Earths and magnets are crucial to rearming. This is not good news.

I suppose some will think I’m black pilling, but I am becoming concerned.

Remember, Iran doesn’t have to actually hit anything. We’re blowing up our own stuff shooting their cheap hardware out of the sky.

PS: This might be a good time to pull out some secret super weapons.

I don't think they have any fight left in them. They've been demoralized and their salvos of drones were a bust. Surrender is their best option.
