The Legend
It hasn't changed, I'm still certain that IRI is holding back or its due to incompetence or lack of appetite, not a capability issueJust wanted to know, if your views have changed from pre-war position to more reality levels.
Iran has done well under circumstances, but as far as technology & capabilities are concerned, Iran is no match for United States. If Iran would have capabilities to successfully strike & decommission Carrier Strike Group than Trump would not have taken such a gamble on Iran at first place.
Iran has its strengths and weaknesses, its strengths are its ability to keep standing despite heavy punishment, its resilience, its ability to strike back but at same time it has its weaknesses at technological levels. If Iran keeps standing and keep hitting Israel then just like 12 day war, the enemy can come back to ceasefire position. It will be a victory itself. But we should not expect miracles to defeating enemy at technological levels.
Strikes on PGCC have proven that IRI is holding back a lot, I'm not going to believe that the US and Israel suppressed 100% of Iranian coastal/naval missile capability in 5 days
If there was no hold back, PGCC credibility and prosperity/tourism would have come to a permanent end
