       Someone made a handy-dandy little graph about the number of missiles Iran has launched during this war. The conclusions should be rather obvious.A) this is not an escalating conflict. It may have geographically expanded, but it's not escalating.   B) this is not a country that's capable of keeping up a war.   I'm even more doubtful of the "WW3" predictions, as there are still no signs of anyone coming to Iran's aid. Iran is clearly having to go at it alone, and it's response has dropped off the proverbial cliff. There are now reports of Iran having fired two long distance missiles at the Chagos islands, and apparently that means they now have (or had) intercontinental missiles.In other words, the regime already had its hands on missiles capable of reaching Europe, all the way to the southeast of the UK and the west coast of Norway.A lot of people have been claiming that Iran was never a real threat, but frankly, I would personally be rather uncomfortable with that particular regime with its apocalyptic visions of the end times having missiles capable of reaching Europe. It's one thing for an expansionistic major power to have them, a whole different one for a religiously fanatic regime that is looking forward to the end times, to have such capacity. Also, the IRGC is  now claiming they have nukes, as they've "issued orders" to ready them for operations. I'm in the "press X for doubt" camp myself. Especially since meanwhile, their state TV had someone on saying Iran has now entered a new era and become a global superpower (ahem... see graph below) and they must do what the public is demanding of them, that is to build a nuclear weapon.   Consistency isn't their strong suit.Of course if it turns out they do have a nuclear weapon nearly ready or even hidden somewhere, that will rather prove Israel's and U.S.'s point.
