I feel like the whole deal was just a show. I'm pretty sure Iran knew they wouldn't hit anything but just wanted to show that they are willing to commit resources against Israel. I think if it had been a real attack they would have hurt people and that would mean a war that everyone is hoping to avoid.
Remember Comical Ali, Saddam's information minister during the invasion of Iraq?
He said the most ridiculous shit that we all laughed at. Truth was, though, he wasn't talking to us, he was talking to Saddam's party loyalists and people.
I'm thinking the same is true here. I don't think the Iranian leadership is so dumb they actually think anyone in Israel, or the "West" in general is really intimidated or anything by this.
No, it's probably more a signal to their own people. An internal show of strength.
Like most of China's actions aren't for our consumption, but their own people.
Pretty much, yes. -
