🇮🇱🇺🇸⚔️🇮🇷📝: I talked to two Israeli sources on why Iranian launches continue to increase, despite US-Israeli claims that they have destroyed almost all of the launchers. Here is what they said:
1) The 90–95% drop in volume claimed by CENTCOM earlier in the month was probably a temporary lull as Iran repositioned its remaining launchers into hardened sites. Independent satellite analysis suggests that a significant portion of the "80% destruction" claimed by the IDF actually hit high-fidelity decoys.
2) Despite fewer launchers, the lethality per strike has increased. Iran's shift to cluster warheads has allowed a single missile to impact multiple locations simultaneously, compensating for the lower volume of launches
3) Iran has successfully set up mobile, underground units able to fire at steady rates. Iran used that quiet period to move their remaining ~100-120 heavy launchers into "Super-Hardened" facilities
4) Iran is utilizing its Zolfaqar and Dezful road-mobile launchers. These units move from hardened tunnels to pre-surveyed launch spots, fire, and return underground in under 10 minutes, often before coalition drones can re-task for a strike.
5) Because these launching units are decentralized, it is very hard for US and Israeli intelligence to get info on them.
Israel and the United States do not have an answer to this problem. That is why they are trying escalation on energy sources instead. But that is backfiring.

“This is all jihad, this is all ibada, and this is all counted for by Allah. How committed am I to this? What am I willing to sacrifice for this noble cause?”

🇫🇷🇮🇷❌🇺🇸❗️ — The US thought it could quickly contain Iran with air superiority, but the war has proven longer and more complex, exposing the vulnerability of American bases and ships to missile and drone attacks, while the mounting costs and deployment needs are putting heavy pressure on the Army, according to French weekly Courrier International.
➡️ The analysis concludes that the conflict has shown the US can no longer manage a major Middle East war without heavy consequences, as it once did.
