Is the Iron Dome cooked? I keep seeing conflicting report

And is this how they reel Trump in? I know Bibi has repeatedly requested US assistance over the last couple days, but Iran claims to still have another 2k missles, enough to continue the bombing campaign for several weeks. I don’t support US involvement but its very hard to imagine Trump letting Iran lay waste to the country if the Dome is actually porous

Well if Megatron is tweeting it’s cooked then it just might be. I’ll wait for Optimus Prime to tweet to believe it though. Always better to have two sources for confirmation.

Well he appears to be quoting an Israeli public news channel. I wasn’t leaning on the credibility of a X account with a half million followers, which is why I posted it as a question. And specifically said conflicting reports

I just heard a 30 minute interview with Bobbi and Bret Baier and he did not mention this one single time. He 100% understands that Trump is going to do what’s best for America

Does anyone remember when Israel was getting rockets fired at her for absolutely no reason during the Gulf War?
Maybe worry less about the non perfection of a defense system and more on those who are sending the rockets in the 1st place.

Then he would know the iron dome isn’t the system that is designed to target ballistic missiles. It can, and does, but that isn’t the system designed for it.

Israel will blow it up and blame it on Iran

Israeli air defence is dead.
Didn't we already have reports of the US and other countries helping to intercept before they got to Israel?

Israel cannot win this war. They're going to piss and moan until they draw us in.

Its not cooked. It is taking down probably 90% of the missiles. But the ones that get through with 2,000 pound warheads do damage. This is not the Russians shooting Shaheed drones into Ukraine with 50 pounds of explosives that Ukraine is crying about.
In Ukraine we are shooting down drones worth a few thousand dollars with missiles worth hundreds of thousands or a million. Not much return on investment.
We should move our anti air assets out of Ukraine and Europe and into Israel for the time being.
If Iran is being bombed, they will not be sending many drones to Russia.

It's cooked. The Iranian Fattah-1 hypersonic ballistic missiles are slicing through. It does not appear that they have launched their Fattah-2 hypersonic cruise missiles, and they may not be operational yet, but they will likely also be able to essentially bypass the Israeli defenses.

Define "cooked".... doesn't function or out of ammo?
There are 3 systems.
Iron Dome - short range missile defense
Davids Sling - medium range
Arrow 2 & 3 - one in space and one in the upper atmosphere

I figured this is how this war will progress. Who runs out of ordinance first - Israel and the iron dome or Iran and their ballistic and hypersonic missiles. As one of these countries runs out, they will have to adjust tactics. Israel has been bombarding Iran and from what we hear is developing air superiority over Iran. If that is true, then they can change their targeting almost at will. I think they may have hoped to have done more damage to Iran’s missile capability prior to the draining of iron dome resources, but that may not have happened.
This is war, things go well and they go bad. How these countries react and adjust and who does it better will win. Bottom line is many many people will be killed.

This is stupid! Of course some missiles will get thru. There doesn't exist a missle defense system that can defend against hyper sonic. Iran doesn't have many of those.
Israel's defense is taking out "most". More than Irans missile defense systems! Oh wait, most of those were taken out by Mossad agents that Iran was too stupid to even know they were in their country.

No system is 100% but it does seem to be intercepting the vast majority of the incoming missiles
If Iran really does have another 2000 to send their way it could obviously be a problem

If Iran says they have 2000 more missiles, they definitely don't have 2000 more missiles.
