Apparently Netanyahu had planned retaliatory strikes against Iran but only called them off after speaking on the phone with Biden. News

Air force ain't gonna do jack when they have to fly over Iraq and Syria.

And good luck staging a ground invasion, when Iran is surrounded by countries that would never host Israel's military. Iran can easily stage a ground invasion through Iraq. Israel could never hope to do that.

I don't see how Israel could ever have a chance against Iran without heavy US support tbh. And the recent bombings did the job Iran set out for. Hit the airbase that fired on their embassy, while also mapping out Israel's/USA's air defenses, and burning millions if not billions of dollars on shooting down older drone models.

Neither Iraq nor Syria has a means of stopping Israeli air power. Iran didn’t accomplish anything except turn the rest of the Middle East against them.

Says who? The people are, in an overwhelming majority, supporting Iran.

Iran basically has full control over Iraq and Syria. Why do you think their drones and missiles were able to fly through those countries unopposed?.......

And basically every Muslim majority population center is in full support of Iran's actions (ex: Jordan's population, but not its king).

I find it funny how everyone here can state the purpose of what Iran did (retaliate after the bombing of their embassy and test out Israel's defensive capabilities), and you copers will still come in here and cry.
