Cause they are more powerful. I understand that upsets you. But why talk up the Houthis; how much damage are they really doing to the US/Israel?
That was already posted tens of times on this thread with graphs, stop trolling and go and find those graphs (economic damage posted).
And it's not about "how muh damage TeHe", but them saying in front of the whole world that they would stop Houthis
with certainty, with those 20 countries, and then getting humiliated in return, showing to the whole world how weak and overhyped they realistically are.
Imagine saying yeah, we would protect "free shipping", we are "world police" for 70 years, and then some poorest country on Earth humiliates you, forcing you to withdraw your over-used, rusting, breaking down antique warships back to your countries one by one.
How much damage is the US doing to Houthis? They are already billions of dollars in negative in terms of downing cheap drones with overly expensive missiles the US doesn't have much in stock from the beginning due to being a de-industrialized empire in its end stages.
How will your Arab "allies" (in your delusions of course), look at this, what about the rest of the world? What about your "enemies"?
Of what use are you now as a "security partner" when you can't literally provide security to either regional maritime shipping choke points or your first-tier ally Israel itself?
The US actually already gave a list of 10 concessions for peace with Yemen, as they are obviously defeated.
Everything was being posted here on this thread for months, hundreds of times, but you are still saying the same emotional messages without any change in thinking. Either you are trolling, or are extremely limited person in terms of being open-minded and objective with reality.
More than 1-2 missiles got through. loll So how many... 3, 4, maybe 4.5? A very small number of missiles got through, woo its more than 1-2. Don't know how many, but it's more than 1-2! And that shows how Israel got smacked hard by Iran.
This is not a video game about getting "smacked", wtf. Iran spent tens of millions vs USrael billions of worth of equipment in dollar terms, the math is simple on who is fundamentally "hurt" more in the exchange, but there's more.
And the missiles still broke through and struck their intended targets (turn your brain on, if Iran wanted to inflict some actual, serious damage, instead of firing this as a warning shot, then they wouldn't have told the whole world the plans of their operations, wtf).
And the warning shot was clearly heard, hence Israel's muted micro-drone infiltration strike with quadcopters as a retaliation, whereas the US not only stayed completely silent but basically also told Israel not to do anything.
Additionally, Iran basically used its lower-tier equipment, and in hundreds of times lesser numbers than they could during this attack. Again more proof this was basically a light tap in the face, instead of a "smack", that was not their intention.
As for why Iran didn't do a "smack" instead, it was because they are not hurrying anywhere, Israel is. Israel's military, economic, diplomatic, and geopolitical position for Israel is getting demolished by every single month now, whereas for Iran, everything opposite is literally happening.
So why punch them now, when you can punch them in a few years, but this time with double of your current body mass? I'm using just this as an analogy and basically speaking in your kind of "terms". Iran essentially just wanted to return everything to the status-quo as it developing quite in their favor.
But the point is that the more "emotional", like Israel and the US, someone is, the worse their current and future positions realistically are, that is showing that "they don't have it under their control".
Also, Iranian enemies did not get any new intelligence from the confrontation, whereas Iran basically took note of the entire air defense clearly, now knowing their regional air defense capabilities to the full extent.
You are repeating the same "13-year-old angry teenager level points", 10 times already, without any proof and being debunked every time, so I would look into moderating your account here a little if I were in charge of the forum.
