I hope you know the speed at which those Iranian missiles travel. In just a little over 3 mins, they can hit Israel from Iran. When you ran on foot to intercept a bus on speed, you're not expected to make it. That's not failure, it's simply as it should be.
You claimed that the AD's are only to defend short range attacks, that's what I'm disputing

David's Sling is designed to take out targets as far out as 186 miles away. The Arrow 2 has a range of 56 miles and a maximum altitude of 32 miles, while the Arrow 3 uses hit-to-kill technology to intercept incoming ballistic missiles in space, before they re-enter the atmosphere on their way to targets.

These systems combined were designed specifically to counter those missiles Iran fired and the claim of short range is nonsense

🔽35 rockets were launched from Lebanon towards Haifa Bay, Acre and Zolvolon base, most of which fell directly

Putin holding a meeting with another president in Turkmenistan, arguably the most reclusive country on earth.

Putin riding like a king in Ashgabat, the strangest city in the world, built with gold and white marbles, lived in by NOBODY.

He's also a friend of Kim Jung Un and the Ayatollah of Iran.

Putin sure knows how to connect with DIFFERENT people.

Putin is a great leader.
What do you mean by the above bold? Explain please...

Apart from shoring up AD. Israel is confused as things stand. They don't want to start a war with Iran while they are still battling Hamas, Hezbollah and other lesser proxies in the region it will be too much for them. Another thing is they see this as a rare opportunity to strike Iranian nuclear facilities which they can't destroy totally without the help of America and America is not ready for that. Striking Iranian nuclear facilities could have the opposite effect making Iran go for the bomb which Israel does not want. Lastly they don't know what an Iranian response could be if they retaliate while still fighting Hamas and Hezbollah.

This is a very difficult situation for Israel and only US can help them out even US does not want things to escalate beyond this cause of its own interest in the region and the effect of a conflagration that would affect global economy. Iran calculated its move very well.
Netanyahu wants to start a war.
He is politically safe provided the IDF is active.
A Hamas deal was on the table before and after Haniyeh's assassination. He did not take it.

You're correct that America does not want a war.
You're also correct that Satanyahu and co are unsure of the Iranian response.

Iran is not out of the woods yet.
They need to be able to weather the Israeli storm, which we all know has teeth.
And deliver a very painful response.
Then they can breathe easy.

104 UN Member States and the African Union issued a letter expressing support for UNSG Antonio Guterres in response to Israel declaring him persona non grata.

Chile initiated the effort which "urges all parties to engage constructively with the United Nations to seek a sustainable and just resolution through diplomacy."

Notably absent from the list of signatories are US, UK, Australia, New Zealand, and 11 EU countries (among which Germany and Italy). Surprisingly, France and the Netherlands did sign the letter.

French President Emmanuel Macron has doubled down on his call for an arms embargo on Israel, stating that stopping the export of weapons used in Gaza and Lebanon is the only way to end the wars.

"We all know it. It’s the unique lever that would end it," Macron said at a summit of European and Mediterranean leaders in Cyprus.

Hebrew sources:

The foreign worker who was killed this morning in the north was not killed by Hezbollah fire but rather by stepping on a remnant of an explosive device left in the area by the farmer who was killed, which exploded."

Macron angry at Israel after it attacked UNIFIL peacekeepers again and injured two more European soldiers:

It is unacceptable to see the UNIFIL troops deliberately targeted by the Israeli forces, we condemn this move, we do not tolerate and will not tolerate this to happen again.

The occupation has committed one BIG mistake. The French can be as much of a sellout as those ME Arab kingdoms (and dictatorships), and as genocidal as Germany. However, the only thing they NEVER, under ANY circumstance, forgive is to publicly hurt their national pride. Not knowing history, “Israel” has committed the worst foreign relation mistake they could have.

But wait again hezbollah used to boast
of advance weapons capable of shooting down jets, they have only shutdown a few number of drones
Hezbollah have not used 0.00001% of their weapons. The weapons in their possession is enough to make sure Israel and America never factor in anything again in this life.

The air defense systems are designed to work against short range missiles. Perhaps you don't know what ballistic missiles are. You should read a lot more bro. Your open demonstration of ignorance is beginning to diminish your value as a man.
And tomorrow, someone would be making long posts just to argue with this person. Only the Iron Dome is designed primarily to work against short-range missile. The Arrow and David Sling systems, which are also overhyped, are meant to tackle medium and long-range threats.

⚡State Duma Speaker Volodin stated that furries are part of the US plan to dehumanize the world.

"Washington and Brussels are losing their dominance. To continue ruling the world, they are implementing the 'Dehumanization' project. The goal is for people to stop being human. This is being organized through the destruction of traditional institutions of human society.

Today, we are at a stage where people are being pushed to abandon not only their gender identity but their human identity as well. They are being encouraged to try roles as animals, fictional characters, and mythical beings.

A person will be turned into a surrogate.
And a surrogate is not guaranteed human rights, the most fundamental of which is the right to life.

It will be a convenient and silent puppet to perform specific functions and tasks."

Ashgabat is the capital of Turkmenistan.
It's a shiny beautiful city built mostly with gold and white marbles.

The country is rich in mineral resources, natural gas in particular.

Although the country's dictators spent a fortune building the brand new city to reflect the country's wealth, they barred the citizens from living and working in the spectacular city of shiny white buildings and beautiful gardens.

Apart from security personnel and cleaners/gardeners who guard and clean the city, no other citizens are ever seen within it.

Getting a visa to Turkmenistan is extremely difficult and getting a pass to tour the city is even more so. Only foreign dignitaries are received in the city and I doubt many countries have diplomatic relations with the country.

My earlier comment was to highlight Putin's ability to connect and get along with different people/countries around the world including the badly maligned ones, the Pariahs and the reclusive.

More info about Ashgabat. 👇

Even the Russian S-400 Triumph can be overwhelmed. That's the way to bypass those stuffs, claiming it's overhyped and all of that is totally unacceptable, especially coming from a Nigerian boy/man.

Are you blind? Can't you see the disclaimer in the so-called news and screenshot you shared.

"We only have the army's account of what happened here". Even the BBC that is only opinionated towards Israel is saying this is not our news but the Israeli army's official position.

We received more than 100 soldiers in the first days of the operation in Lebanon.
And that is just 1 hospital out of many.

The move comes just days after Israeli allegedly threatened to shoot down any Iranian plane that tries to land at Beirut airport.

His visit is the second high ranking of an Iranian official to Lebanon, since the assassination of Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah.
Iran is really daring isreal to a fight.
You don't even need to attack Iran again, just blow up that plan in Lebanon. That is enough but I doubt they are ready for a battle
