                        Iran did it just for internal consumption then?

                          From what I gather, these were a significantly higher level of threat than before, and no missile attack should ever be excused away because it was unsuccessful.

                            I've read that Israel may try to decapitate Iran's leadership. They seem to be pretty meticulous in planning and being prepared before they act, so...

                                If the attack is "just for show", then the retaliation may also be likewise. Each "look good" domestically, but World War III is avoided anyway.

                                      No, the U.S. Navy didn't intercept a bunch of missiles, but they did get a few.

                                      Notice which destroyers engaged...
