As I predicted 4 days ago Iran is playing chess. It would soak up all interceptors and then roll out its newer missiles. Well it did that yesterday in wave 22. Wave 22 began with a barrage of Khorramshahr 4, Kheibar, and Fattah missiles. Not a single country could stop them. Three layers of Israeli air defense couldn’t stop it. These are hypersonic trails over Tel Aviv left by new generation solid and liquid fuel missiles, one of which hit a fortified IDF command center and killed 7 senior officers plus others according to Military Watch magazine.
The passionate brutal Israelis driven by zeal who fought the six day war, that generation is over. It’s replaced by a soft generation that needs technology and the ability to not be struck back while fighting inferior foes, civilian populations and guerrillas, as its defining offensive posture.
Iran just crippled that posture and Israel has no answer. It’s naked right now.
