CSIS states

Service History​

As many as 90 Jericho 2 missiles are currently based in caves near Zacharia, southwest of Tel Aviv.9

With the Jericho 3 declared operational in 2011, the Jericho 2 missile is expected to be phased out by 2026

may they intend to use these? Tit for Tat

yes but not clear how precise it would be, doubt they have more than a few hundred, and yes it has the range

even if they have 300 of those missiles, majority will be reserved for their nuclear stockpile so I doubt they would want to use more than 100 for conventional purposes
 
The pause by Iran has allowed Israel to regroup to some degree
re-arm , loose depots with ammo
Ok, Iran has allowed Israel to regroup, but Israel has also lost its element of surprise. Iran will be on alert until Israel's attack happens or its confirmed to not be happening (or its done/over). Iran has cleared its ports, and entered defensive war mode before Israel has attacked (and could attack). The overall effectiveness of Israel's attack will not be high.
1- Iran did scored some wins with Russia as F-35 attack was thwarted
Yes
2- News of more weaponry arriving from Russia to Iran under new deals with Russia
Yes.

c. 100 IDF casualties in one day from Hezbollah is very bad news for Israel, may force them to temper their expected attack against Iran, doesn't seem like a good idea to start a war with Iran when Hezbollah is causing this level of damage...
 
The question is if these systems are targetted, and American soldiers die - then will America be forced to fight Iran then?

Odd decision to "not get dragged" into a war by fighting Israels war, for Israel, by putting American soldiers right in "harms" way.

Remember when Iran attacked an American base in Iraq with around a dozen missiles DIRECTLY and nothing happened.

Good coordinated strategy from the axis of purity, righteousness and resistance. Heating up one front to force a cooling of another.

How much money is Iran losing on a daily basis by being defensive? How long can this be sustained financially?

worth noting that Iran's massive missile attack against Israel came only a few days after Nasrallah was martyred and after Israel announced the start of its ground invasion of Lebanon, providing crucial time for Hezbollah to regroup
 
Nissim Zarka, a 68-year-old resident of Afula, died yesterday (Tuesday) after entering the hospital during the Iranian missile attack on Israel.

Zarka obeyed the orders of the Home Front Command, and lost his life shortly after entering the protected area. According to the family's testimony, he did not suffer from underlying illnesses, and the stress and anxiety following the alarms and attacks were what overcame him.


Israeli media admits an Israeli was killed (indirectly) by the Iranian missile strike ...
