    Just how accurate were the Iranian missiles that hit the part of the Iraqi airbase where U.S. troops were stationed? It turns they scored 6 direct hits. Iran was clearly demonstrating capabilities that completely change the nature of a US war with Iran.https://econ.st/2upjmHB

        And the Aegis system also failed on at least 3 US navy ships, they also failed to intercept the missile.

        Right, and people need to know that the only value of a small scale nuclear weapons program is as a deterrent, a sort of Doomsday Device akin to Israel's program. Iran's conventional missiles will be their dominant offensive weapons in a war with the US or Israel.

        Why did the "deterrent, a sort of Doomsday Device akin to Israel's program." Kill between 90,000 and 146,000 people in Hiroshima and 39,000 and 80,000 people in Nagasaki ? Is the GBU-43/B MOAB a dominant offensive weapon or a gadget similar to a deterrent device?
