The US deployed THAAD missile systems to Israel manned by over 100 US troops five days ago to provide support to the iron dome with the implicit threat of US intervention should Iran strike one. The next Iranian missile launch could be the starting pistol of a much broader conflict. Keep an eye out I suppose but I doubt you'll miss the news of it.

Also, the Israelis announcing the completion of attacks on a country strikes me as odd. Is that normal?

Edit: just found out Israel basically didn't hit all that much so maybe the world can rest easy another night

It's all a stupid game. Israel killed some people, so Iran "had to" respond to save face, and then Israel had to do the same. Once everyone is satisfied that everyone knows both countries have very big and girthy missiles, they can finally back down from a war no one wants (hopefully).
