Arguments aside, the attacks from Iran have to be the most telegraphed act of war in recent history. It seemed imminent for more than a week and when it happened it was very underwhelming.
2 half cocked theories I heard: Iran telegraphed it's plans through the Jordanian government to make sure the west would neutralize the incoming drones/missles and avoid significant retaliation.
The second one is that the attack fell flat because it was intended. Iran merely lobbed 150 missiles into Israel to make them show their defenses and what they could handle.
I dunno if either are true, but on its face the lack of damage is a bad look for Tehran. It makes them look ineffective.
