Who Won Between Israel and Iran Over The Weekend….And What’s Next [Analysis From Noah]


I wanted to break down the recent air strikes launched by Iran on Israel over the weekend and let you know who “won” that exchange.

And I have two competing opinions I want to give you.

I think they both make a lot of sense and could both be “right” in a sense.

The most common analysis I’ve seen is that Israel shot down 98-99% of all missiles and drones launched by Iran and that it was a very embarrassing showing for Iran in that sense.

In other words, they shot their big shot and it bombed (no pun intended).

Here is MeetKevin who I think does excellent analysis breaking down that opinion and saying Iran really looks bad right now:

And by all accounts that is true.

Israel had an incredible showing.

But is there more to the story under the surface?

This is where we turn to my good friend Mike Adams, the Health Ranger.

Mike had a slightly different take, saying this wasn’t really that good for Israel at all, and in fact this first attack wasn’t really designed to blow up Israel, it was designed to deplete the defenses of the Iron Dome and create a huge bill for Israel.

A very interesting and compelling take:

Full text of that Tweet:

Just as they planned, #Iran used mostly cheap, low-cost drones and missiles to force #Israel to spend over $1 billion, launching volleys of multi-million dollar anti-air defense munitions to shoot down the incoming drones. This first wave was designed to help deplete Israel’s munitions supply, stressing the supply chain of U.S.-supplies munitions. Iran can rapidly produce thousands of low-cost drones, but Israel cannot easily replace these wildly expensive “Iron Dome” or “David’s Sling” munitions, some of which cost millions each. So this is a losing exchange for Israel. The fact that Israel claims it shot down “99%” of incoming drones and missiles is NOT a win for Israel. It’s a win for Iran. BTW, Israel also can’t do math because it admits 7 hypersonic missiles got through, so that means Israel didn’t shoot down 99% after all.

Then you have U.S. Army Colonel Retired Combat Veteran Douglas Macgregor with a similar opinion:

So, can both be right?

Yes.

It would be what you’d typically call a “pyrrhic victory”.

Yes Israel won that skirmish, but was it detrimental long term?

We shall see.

Continue to pray for peace.
