#5Do any of those US tech companies have large manufacturing footprints in the region? Intel has a couple of fabs in Israel, but presumably those are on the smaller side? Nvidia's work in the region is mostly R&D, isn't it?
In any case, though manufacturing may not be too badly affected, if the Iranians can pull this off, they would discourage further investment in Israel and raise the economic costs of the war for the US, which would be an geostrategic Iranian win of the "low hanging fruit" variety.

Yes. Both me-south-1 and me-central-1 have been _heavily_ impacted/disrupted for nearly a month now due to drone strikes on infra.

as if they started the war, as if they killed their leaders themselves. Ofc they are being boomed in the desert, have not lost anything. US and Isreal has the most valuable things or only them considered human beings? Oh, rest of the people living in the world, they should be grateful to US and Isreal to let them live.

#9Better for public relations than hitting oil and gas, if they manage no casualties.
I'm sure some people will paraphrase Radoslav Sikorski: "Thank you, Iran!"
