Iran - Israel/US War: Israel-US declare war on Iran, Iran responds

It seems for a lot of those missiles, even if they are intercepted, the warheads carry on and explode on the ground.. So an intercept does not mean the warhead is destroyed given how much momentum they have.

Yes, plus the psychological impact. Them broken pieces of projectiles are not snowflakes!
 
I'll go against the grain here. Not convinced Iran has the capacity for a continuous 10-24 hour attack.

If it turns out they do, I'll be the first to admit it.

I think that you are right. The pattern that we have seen thus far isn't encouraging. We see a limited batch of missiles being launched. Of course it remains to be seen as it is early days. Israel talks about 2-3 weeks of fighting. I understand that Iran is trying to conserve their stockpiles. This is where Iranian air force should have taken the lead. You cannot solely rely on missile launches.
 
Western powers are intent on tapping the Greater Middle East’s resources and expanding their sphere of influence driven purely by profit and power. In doing so, the Arabs in the GCC have effectively handed them trillions of dollars, relinquished control over oil policy, and opened up vital strategic footholds for them

The islamic and wider world lacks economic and scientific capacity to challenge them. Only China has emerged as a credible and perhaps even superior contender. I don't know about others in the Islamic world but If Pakistan deepens partnership with China, we could gain access to cutting-edge technologies that would drive our economic and military advancement. If India wasn't a thorn on our side, we might have assumed leadership of the Islamic world. We are neither too close nor too far and we have abundant natural resources and manpower; it is our economic weakness alone that holds us back and something needs to be done about it.
You cannot rely on another country to prop you up if you plan to be a credible power.

The problems within Pakistan are many, and first and foremost it requires fundamental reforms in the cultural, social, and educational domains.

Feudalism is alive and well, educational ecosystem is poor, and the culture is filled with nepotism, cheating, and corruption.

You have to establish strong foundations to build things on top. China succeeded in this strong foundation. There is no rushing things like the above.
