"for US-backed allies in the Gulf to pay to replace the Fordow nuclear facility – which the US hit with bunker-buster bombs over the weekend – with the non-enrichment program,"

If the Iranians take this seriously, North Korea will have a bridge to sell them.
Pretty sure this is just them talking on their own, Iran is talking with anyone.
Iran is already building two nuclear power plants with Russian help, Bushehr-3/4. Those will likely cost around $10 billion USD. And they have plans to build four more.

The US also promised to build civilian nuclear power plants in North Korea and then reneged on the deal. Iran would be foolish to accept it.
They passed the legal bill stuff to suspend/stop iaea work (Russia's Lavrov said not to do that for some reason?)

Nobody knows how many, but you can infer from the interception rate on video to get a clue. Generally speaking interception rate is low. Most missiles went through.
I wouldn’t say most, most of the videos that got posted were of impacts not of interspections. But I more generally wanted an estimate

... Anyway, as the leader of the Shia strain of Islam you will continue to see Iran supporting Shia groups in the Middle East. ...
This is an excellent point although Islam is a recent applique on millennia-old Persia. Certainly Iran should continue supporting its Shia co-religionists ... with schools, hospitals, mosques and all the charitable works Islam asks of its followers. And welcome them as refugees if events require. But for Iran to more fully join the modern world, becoming a self-interested nation-state must be its primary duty and goal. It's a difficult path and I hope Iran takes and keeps it.

There's a new Iranian terror cell/incoming terror plots craze taking place in US news. Max Blumenthal talks all about it in his latest stream. New 911 (Not Porsche) incoming to justify more US insanity?

There are videos of missiles being intercepted, but generally they fail. The few that get intercepted took many missiles to hit. This makes sense given ballistic missiles are extremely hard to intercept at terminal phase.

I do agree but what I’m saying is most of the videos we have seen are impacts but the majority did get intercepted in total, some did make impacts especially more so torwards the end of the war.

There is no evidence majority got intercepted. Besides, it would make no sense if interception rate is very low and still intercept most of them. Near the end there is no interception happening at all, which suggest interceptors were running critically low.

except the initial strike most of Iran's missile waves consisted of few dozens of missiles and sometimes less than ten missiles yet it stil hit it's targets. the iron dome or arrow missile or whatever it's called was MIA.
Iran's missile defence got completely dismantled rather quickly. Israel's defence system got depleted rather quickly too. though I'm sure Israel would still claim 99% interception rate.
