Iran just got at least five missiles through the combined Israeli and American defences, and they were told of the time the strike was coming something like a day in advance.

The russians have much better missiles, and one nuclear weapon is enough to devastate any city.

Were you trying to reply to someone else? I'm talking about the reliability of missile defense in the context of nuclear weapons.

Yes, I was replying to kierkeganks. And I would like to point out that Russians look a lot better on paper than in the battlefield.

@billOfEarth42
Not sure what paper you read, but in the NY Times I read on May 8 that about 30% of the Russian missiles got through, which is quite a bit better than the around 4-8% the Iranians managed.
