If Iranian Strikes Were A Flop Why Is Israel Now Declaring War On Iran

The truth is Iran hit Israel hard.

Out of 44 ballistic missiles fired from Iranian soil that where over a 1,000km from Israel after Iran made it known in advance within 48hrs, 9 struck their targets.

A Mossad drone base in the Negav desert was hit hard with reported casualties of at least 44. This same base houses F-35 jets.

The cost ratio of Iran’s attack was in their favour as it cost them only 40-60 million USD to stage their drone and missile barrage . Note that all the hardware used in striking Israel are manufactured in Iran.

The cost of attempting to repel the missile and drone swarm on the part of US tax payers amounted to over $1bn and involved US maritime strike groups, patriot batteries in Iraq , Israel, Syria and Saudi Arabia. Jordan even chipped in by sending their air force to engage drones in midair over Israeli air space.

Now if you go by the official IDF narrative that minimal damage was caused by the Iranian swarm attack , why then is Israel now fuming and declaring war against Iran ?

Currently the IDF is declaring war on Iran and the Israeli Knesset has given Netayanyu full war powers.

If Iran’s latest attack was a nothing burger , then why is Israel hell bent on forcing the US into war with Iran ?
