Israel and the US are more than glad to send missiles and planes to bomb Iran all day, every day, because Iran isn't going to do much damage if they were hitting a US base or Israel, as I said before, but it's a different game if the Iranian targeting GCC and co. Because that is a cause for escalation, for example, bombing Qatar LNG production would set Qatar back, even if they didn't do anything, just holding Qatari LNG tanker at bay makes them lose a bunch of money, and if this war escalates, it won't just be bombs and missiles flying. It would be at least a joint Air/Naval operation, up to and including limited ground invasion.
Everyone knows that will an escalation but who benefits? Only Israel as they see the Iranians and the GCC attacking each other which leads to even more depletion of Iranian missiles, while Israel, taking advantage of the fog of war, consolidates its new gains in Gaza, Syria, and South Lebanon. The Arab countries, when the dust settles, will end up buying the American weapons and even getting American contractors in for 'rebuilding'.
If Iran is hoping for a regional destruction to cause a global economic to stop the war of aggression against it then it will be much longer for the Americans to feel that pain before rest of the world would feel that pain.
There is no Samson Option for Iran to get out of this war. The only options are great pain on Israel itself and major American casualties.
