Iran is hammering US military assets.. radar systems (at least 2 thaad and another huge one in qatar I know of), making US waste air defence resources etc and the media hasn’t caught up to it.
US is in panic and that’s why «few days» war, became «few weeks» and then «few months», now «as long as needed» and talks about troops on ground (which is fantasy, as deploying nowhere nearby is safe). They’re bringing more air defense systems from Italy now. It’s a mess. Iran is aiming for the long war instead of short term cheap PR (Granted Iran is losing in the navy sphere)
