Don't count on any US fatalities. This was coordinated with Israel. The US already evacuated these bases.

If the US or Israel attack Iran's oil export facilities next, then Iran will close the Strait. And if US ships get closer to unblock the strait, those are also fair game.

So does the US get drawn into a protracted war, or does this end with the Iranian response?
If Iran is smart, they should go all in. Destroy all US credibility in the region and show Iran's power as a regional powerhouse. Because they have already paid the price. Their enemies have attacked already. If they just swallow the attack and then do nothing it will be a waste of opportunity.

US simply do not have the ability to go all in against Iran. They will back down. So, Iran has the strategic advantage now. If they do go all in.

What makes you think Iran will fare any better against a full scale American attack? They have shown themselves to be pretty helpless so far

Wait, did they actually hit anything important in that airbase or is it the usual notify-evacuate-hit empty building clown show that Iran does to placate it's population?

Also, why did they hit Qatar? As far as I am aware Qatar didn't participate in the attacks against Iran. Does Iran really want to add the Gulf countries on its (long) list of enemies?
