I am surprised and thankful that Iran nor it's proxies have utilized the Ukraine drone tactic! [1]

The Russian bear vs what they perceived as nothing more than a weak Ukraine mouse has a real bad case of indigestion. Not because they ate the mouse but because that weak little unassuming mouse is shoving armed drones up their Ying Yang with devastating consistency and results.
So with that in mind I am wondering why Iran and it’s proxies have not incorporated the same tactic to circumvent the very effective Iron Dome? As stated in the heading I am thankful they have not as that surly would escalate things to the next level.
Now that may be the point, Iran would not fair well should things reach the next level. They must be seen as retaliating against the Israeli attack so they fire off a barrage of missiles and drones knowing full well a majority will not make it to the target.
There was a very telling cartoon by Joel Pett in Politico (The nation’s cartoonists on the week in politics)
It has Trump ogling the night night sky full of satellites with names such as Golden Dome, Space War, Zillion Dollar and Boon Doggle. Next to him stands Uncle Sam looking back at a small armed drone headed for Trump’s Ying Yang with a very concerned Oh Oh look on his face. I have supplied a link below but am not sure it will get you there. If it does it is number 14.

I am not sure what comes next in either conflict but it is clear Ukraine has drastically changed how future wars will be fought. That little mouse has taken more than a mouthful from that raging bears arse. Should Iran up it’s game and adopt Ukraine drone warfare then all bets are off and the nuclear option resurfaces on all the know nothing talking heads shows.
It is clear Iran has been pushed back on it’s heals and they and their proxy armies are licking their wounds and burying their dead. Unfortunately when it comes to The Middle East history has shown that body counts don’t really count for much.
