This is becoming more and more clearly a carbon copy of the response to Soleimani’s death. Iran shot some firehawk missiles in a predetermined portion of an American base in Afghanistan, intentionally aimed to lessen the possibility of American personnel casualties.


To use a poker reference, They basically announced they are going raise with a weak hand.

I’d push all in and see if you can force them to fold.

I think the most pertinent consideration is the avoidance of further escalation if reasonably possible. Israel’s currently got its hands full, and further escalatory involvement from us and/or other third parties is a guaranteed net negative.

**And don’t get me wrong, I’m not advocating for anything that results in a perception of weakness on ours or Israel’s part, I’m just proposing what seems like the most pragmatic and practical viewpoint.
