War is a strategy not a fat budget.
it cost $150M to strike a missile while it cost $2B to intercept it.
Offence is cheaper than defence so Iran adopted the strategy that offence is the best form of defence.
Iran out-strategised the US in this one. Gave them many places to defend by going regional and targeting many US Bases across the Gulf at the same time with cheaper drones.
Defending these places will cost hundreds of billions of dollars.
The effect?
- Cause disagreements and discord across the region who believe the US owe them defence as agreement to sustain and keep their bases in their country.
- Saudi Arabia is furious and feels betrayed by the US
- Both Saudi Arabia and the UAE have each recorded an estimated loss of over 8.5 billion dollars in the last 72 hours due to how the conflict affects the aviation and Gas industry.
Iran can fire more shots because they spend less on manufacturing weapons.

The assassination of Ayatollah Khamenei is the single greatest strategic blunder in modern US history.
By killing him, the US and Israel didn’t just eliminate a leader; they fulfilled a 1,400-year-old prophecy and created a martyr whose shadow will haunt the West for decades.
Consider the symbolism: Iran has NEVER had a martyred Supreme Leader. Khomeini died of natural causes.
For the Leader of the Islamic Republic to be martyred by the "US/Israel" is 1000% on brand. It transforms a political office into a sacred, eternal cause.
The timing is catastrophic. Khamenei was killed in Ramadan, the same holy month as Imam Ali, the first Imam of Shiism and the "Epitome of Justice."
To millions, this isn't a "strike", it’s a divine parallel. He died as Ali died: at the hands of an assassin during the month of fasting.
He was killed with his family. In the Shia psyche, this immediately mirrors the Martyrdom of Husayn at Karbala.
The narrative of the "oppressed" (Mazlum) vs the "oppressor" (Zalim) is now fully activated. This isn't just an Iranian tragedy; it’s a global Shia rallying cry.
The blowback is already unprecedented. We are seeing something rare: Shia-Sunni unity.
From Karachi to Baghdad to Lucknow, Sunnis are joining Shias in the streets. By targeting a religious authority of this stature, the US has unified the Ummah against a common "tyrant."
Trump’s "kill everyone" doctrine, dictated by Netanyahu, has backfired. They thought they were decapitating a regime.
Instead, they’ve given the Islamic Republic its most powerful symbol of legitimacy since 1979. You cannot kill an idea, especially one now bathed in the blood of "martyrdom."
The West is celebrating a "tactical success" while sleepwalking into a strategic nightmare.
The US just traded a predictable adversary for an unpredictable, divinely-inspired global insurgency. This isn't the end; it's the beginning of a much darker chapter.

️JUST IN: Spokesperson of Iran’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs Baqaei:It was previously emphasized that if a war occurs against Iran, it will be regional. We responsibly warned, and our martyred Commander-in-Chief warned that this war would become a regional war.
Because the region is used for military attacks. Not because Iran wants to make the region insecure. Destabilizing the region is a project of the Zionist regime, and unfortunately, the US has also been drawn into this project.
The targets that our armed forces strike are military targets. These are locations that are American military bases.
The fact that in some cases they transfer their logistics and equipment from one base to another is a military matter. In this foggy situation, the Zionist regime will certainly seek to exploit and expand the scope of fire and create sabotage in regional countries to turn the war, which is the war of the Zionist regime and the US against Iran, into a regional war.
I am sure and hopeful that the countries of the region will not allow these evils to succeed. They should be careful that during the holy month of Ramadan, the war that this regime continues with the killings it has carried out in occupied Palestine, Lebanon, Syria, and Yemen does not involve others with it.
