All quite devastating to the international shipping that the US is ostensibly trying to protect. Which is the problem with a disproportional response - it's disproportional. Yes, the US could blow up the stability of the entire Middle East in order to hinder these rocket attacks. But then the US has to face the consequences of doing that.

Iran's resources are very limited. They simply do not have the capability to move on as many fronts as you're describing.

They can't mount a campaign of any type. Let me ask you this: How long do you think their F-4 Phantoms last against F-22s and F/A-18s? Not very long.

They're not rolling tanks anywhere either.
