that were beyond their range made sense? Even if they don't have an unlimited budget to replace those missiles and they were not fighting against the U.S.?
Even if it would likely draw the last great world superpower into the conflict against them?
In this case we sent in cruise missiles to wipe out their radar.
What it did, however, was make Saudi incursions into Yemen even easier, providing the Saudi airforce a corridor deep into the country which making sure Yemen was unable to retaliate against its invaders.
So they are in a death match with a well armed well financed army and decide to pick a fight with the United States? To what end?
