Hmmm. Thats why they plan well ahead and go for the decisive blows immediately the balls are set rolling. If isreal were to employ similar tactics as Iran, then things will be much more messier for the Iranians.

Isreal is very small and so a bruteforce approach from iran will likely hit juicy targets. Israel's defence is also very expensive. Asides these major disadvantages, i see fewer ways Iran can gravely hurt Israel.

I wonder why Israel hasnt figured out a way to take down more of Iran's zigzag missiles. Something like a curtain of drones should do that. A curtain of drones that identifies direction of incoming missile barrages and just rises to form a curtain, then employ bruteforce in reverse to shoot down the missiles. That should be cheaper than iron dome. Even Ukraine needs such too.
Isreal plays directly from the war books of Winston Churchill; allow some blows to justify blow back. Isreal knew about October 7 but allowed it to have excuse to finish Hamas and Hezbollah.

Isreal dealt Iran a first blow and the world turned against them. They have to allow Iran some blows to justify what will come.

The Jews are the smartest human beings on the planet. Anyone thinking they don’t know Iran will retaliate like this and how to prevent the impact don’t really know them.

Israel never cease to impress me with their strategies. They first eliminated all regional proxies of Hamas in Palestine Hezbollah in Lebanon Houthis in Yemen and ISIS /ISIL in Syria before going after the chief orchestrator Iran..
I never imagined they could pull this off due to the distance. But they did anyways. grin most middle eastern countries believe in power but lack tactics and strategies. And they overestimate themselves too much..

But Iran is able to stand on its ground and defend its sovereignty.

"Even Ukraine needs such too". Mr man leave Ukraine out of this and let Israel do the needful. Well, shows you are in support of anything the west is in support of and against anything the west is against regardless of whether it makes sense or good for Africa etc. what do I know, perhaps you are a European 😀.
I am support of Israel. No need to deny. Iran is the evil sees of that middle east back all those mushroom enemies of israel.

Absolutely well said, even the Sunni Arab groups are waiting patiently for that insidious regime of Shiite mullahs in Iran to kick rocks.

The Russians and Chinese leadership are the only ones who have refused to receive common sense with their continuous sharing of critical Military technology with Iran who are known terror sponsors and I wonder what's really wrong with these dudes in those two countries or Russia and China?

I just want to see the use of technology for LARGELY peaceful purposes in Iran after this war is over and Israel will even be the FIRST one to assist any new goverment that replaces these Shiite clerics because the Israelis and Iranians have been very close friends right from the days of the Shahs of Persia (Iran).
Those ones will do whatever it takes to be relevant, including arming a state well known for sponsoring terror groups. All to spite America. But time will tell.

It's a very sad development, powered by a deliberately manipulated biblical script. The god of Israel is probably a blood sucking vampire that would endorse any violent means of fulfilling a very bogus biblical prophesy.
And Nairaland owner and his mod who appears to be playing a specific script won't stop pushing the pro-Zionist threads to the front page.

They also go a step further by banning comments, posts and threads not following their script.

Most missiles lunch by Iran are mobile,so once is lunch they moved to another strategic position. And also the time of lunch is usually at odd hours,this is to allow there target to be met with surprises and also due to the nature of the missiles lunch...so there is no way Israel Air force can eliminate completely the missiles..do you think if they have static lunch site,do you think it will that difficult to eliminate.by now no missiles will be coming out from Iran because Israel would eliminated all the missiles lunch site.

On another man’s land?
Will the land owner be looking at you while you drill?
How do you know where to drill to get to where you are going?

The resources nko?
Number of days nko?

Seismic and geophysical survey of the area you want to drill nko?

Iron bars and concrete to put nko so that the well doesn’t collapse on whoever goes into it?

Mind you, it’s not a vertical hole alone. The vertical hole is just like a step going inside. The steps can bend or curve before you go and see expanse of underground town, leading to many areas (still underground). They could have a size of Victoria Island underground, with many other pockets of secret areas that are heavily fortified and guarded because of saboteurs and intruders.

It’s more complex than you can imagine. These types of projects take years and $$$$$$$$$ to build.
That is why they have control of the Iran skies. Those jets will man the area while men get to work on drilling.

Llpsporksman:
For over half a century, the world was fed a carefully crafted illusion: that Israel was invincible, that its Iron Dome was impenetrable, and that America’s war dog could never bleed. They called it "God's chosen," a divine fortress backed by an empire that supposedly ruled the Earth.
But all myths eventually face their reality check.
In a dramatic twist that has left Western analysts gasping and Tel Aviv bunkers trembling, Iran’s missiles have shattered the legend—not just physically, but psychologically. The illusion of Israeli supremacy has cracked under a barrage of precision strikes, and now, for the first time in modern history, the so-called “untouchable state” is peeing in fear.
And what's the USA doing? Screaming like a panicked mother hen, threatening Iran, waving nuclear ultimatums, and begging for a ceasefire.
Why cry now, Uncle Sam? Didn't you want war?

🇮🇷 Iran Didn’t Just Fire Missiles—It Fired Truth
Let’s call it what it is: Iran has obliterated the myth of Israeli exceptionalism. A nation once seen as the apex predator in the Middle East is now exposed, its streets in chaos, and its people huddling in bunkers, unsure if the next strike will hit a power plant, a defense HQ, or a government ministry.
The world is witnessing what Israel and its Western backers never imagined: a Third World nation, under sanctions and isolation, delivering a military humiliation to a nuclear-armed state funded by the most powerful empire on Earth.
And here’s the kicker: Iran isn’t even done yet.

🛡️ Israel’s “Iron Dome” or Tin Roof?
For years, Israel’s air defense systems were paraded in Western media like ancient Greek shields—perfect, impenetrable, legendary. But when the Fattah-1 missiles rained down, they cut through those systems like hot knives through butter.
Reports show multiple cities—Haifa, Tel Aviv, Ramat Gan, and Ashdod—took direct hits, crippling infrastructure and exposing the nation’s internal chaos. The so-called Arrow, David’s Sling, and Iron Dome were either overwhelmed or bypassed. Turns out, billions in Western defense contracts can't protect a house of cards.
Israel has never looked so mortal.

🦅 USA: The Hunter Now Shouting “Ceasefire
!”
Here comes the hypocrisy at full throttle.
After decades of arming Israel, vetoing UN resolutions, and greenlighting every military aggression from the apartheid wall to airstrikes on Syria, America now wants Iran to "exercise restraint"?
Let that sink in.
After watching Israel bomb Damascus, assassinate scientists, sabotage nuclear sites, and level Gaza neighborhoods, the USA had no problem. But now that Iran fights back, the rules suddenly change?
Suddenly it’s a “global crisis.” Suddenly there’s talk of “escalation.” Suddenly, Uncle Sam is crying and rattling its sabers.
Why? Because for the first time, its bulldog is being mauled in the open, and the neighborhood isn’t afraid anymore.

🤖 The Real Panic: A Shift in Global Power

This isn’t just about missiles—this is about the collapse of Western moral authority. Iran’s counterstrikes have opened Pandora’s box:
• The Arab street is erupting in support of Tehran, not Tel Aviv.
• Turkey, Qatar, and even some Gulf states are quietly distancing themselves from Israel.
• The Global South is watching, learning: maybe the empire isn’t invincible after all.
The USA is not crying for peace—it’s crying for control. Because the beast they trained for chaos is now facing chaos itself.

📉 Israel: The Beginning of the End
?
Let’s be honest—Israel was never built to survive without American backup. Its economy, military, intelligence, and political dominance were always tethered to Washington. But now, as its cities burn and its security elite scramble, the American leash looks frayed.
And Iran? Far from collapsing, it’s growing in influence. Its proxies are stronger. Its missiles are smarter. And its boldness? Unmatched.
In truth, Iran just redefined asymmetric warfare—and exposed the limits of both Israeli and American dominance.

😏 Why Cry Now?

You wanted war, remember? You sold the weapons. You funded the campaigns. You shut down diplomacy. You silenced international voices. You empowered the beast and watched it devour the region.
Now that the tables have turned, you cry for ceasefire?
Too late.
The resistance you laughed at, sanctioned, and demonized now holds the initiative. The hunter’s attack dog is wounded, and the jungle smells blood.

🌍 The Earthquake is Coming

What the West fears most is not Iran’s missile payloads—it’s the global political earthquake they’ve triggered. For decades, the West ruled by fear. But now, it rules by pretense. And the veil is falling.
What’s next? A world where Israel is just another state—not above the law, not beyond criticism, and no longer bulletproof.
A world where the U.S. can no longer pick winners and losers in the global south. A world where multipolarity isn’t a dream—it’s a missile away.
And that, dear reader, is what they’re really crying about.

.
Oga do you just come online to lie or is it out of ignorance you write?
There was no iron dome half a century ago.
Stop getting your news from beer parlours.
Peace

I like how you think, your suggestion was super brilliant... do you have an engineering background?

Anyway if Iran was sending drones, then using a drone swarm like you suggested to intercept could have been a solution.

However Iran is firing Hypersonic ballistic missiles, and the speed and operation of such missiles would make Drone swarms or a drone curtain pretty much useless;

1. Speed: Ballistic missiles are way much faster

2. The kill vehicles of Ballistic missiles have the ability to change or alter direction. So due to the high speeds they move, the control algorithms of the kill vehicles have a short response time when compared with the control algorithms of drones

3. When Ballistic missiles are fired they change trajectory several times especially after going into the atmosphere making them difficult to intercept

4. Lastly the explosive warheads on Ballistic missiles are usually target locked, most of them don't just explode on impact but rather explode upon target lock validation.

World war is gradually loading and some of us are catching fun with it, like it's a football team that has different supporters.
We're supposed to be praying that there'll be no war. Someone who can not single handedly kill a rat may quote me and call me a coward.
Historians may die but histories don't die. Effect of the world war II included malnutrition, famine, environmental toxins which affected sperm and eggs, genetic and epigenetic effects in both humans, animals and plants because of the atomic bomb used. Some animals/birds went extinct, sex ratio for men and women was altered to the extent that men were much more fewer, post traumatic stress disorder that affected people's mental health became the order of the day, socioeconomic effects happened and many other things were affected world wide.

Then it was atomic bomb that was used. This time around, there are more sophisticated weapons like: missiles , nukes and nuclear weapons. If nuclear weapons are used in western regions the environmental effects will spread to Africa and more than half of the world will be destroyed. Let's advocate for peace. Before we use our own hand to end the earth.

Iran is fighting an already lost cause.

The White House will always align against any Islamic Republic, especially the ones known to support terrorists.
Soon as Iran’s allies too come to support Iran, your hypocritical mouth will change again! Then it will be “if Iran hadn’t begged Russia and China to for help, Israel would have won the war”! But as it is now Israel doesn’t need to beg the US, they are already allies and can support Israel… right?
