Is Iran’s ‘Surprise Attack’ a Sign of Strength or Weakness?

According to the Western press, time is on the Iranian regime’s side. The Iranians themselves may not agree.

U.S. officials called the volley of ballistic missiles Iran fired at an American base in Jordan yesterday a “surprise attack.” It was Iran’s first direct exchange of fire with the U.S. since a bombardment of the Islamic Republic that had gone on for two weeks was halted by President Trump last Friday.
