 So Iran likely spent over $100M attacking Israel and Israel spent over $1B shooting down nearly all of Iran's drones and missiles.

What a fucking waste. 
 That's about 5 seconds of money printing time. 
 US military economy booming 
 On the plus side- fewer weapons of war now. 
 Hey that’s like what America did after 9/11. 3 trillion on useless wars and the ongoing dept of homeland security and silly airport security theater 
 9/11 was an overwhelming success 
 So few places on btcmap on both countries. Weren't the Jews the people that know everything about what good money is? 
 While those $ can buy something stuff like that is doable, eventually they won’t. 
 The worlds most expensive firework show. 
 Americans should be sacrificed for their wars until they stop funding Israel, it's their choice.

 Drone companies are very happy 
 Make war unaffordable again 
 A few crazy people are spending unnecessarily.

 A lot sats that coulda been stacked.  
 only half a day's funding from the USA last figures i heard for foreign aid from USA 
 The winning move is to not fight. 
 Proof of war 
 Israel will get aid from US now too 
 Arguably it was carefully calculated and negotiated to avoid escalation: impressive enough to make Iran look strong, soft enough that the Iron Dome (with some help) could stop it. Spending $1.1B to prevent a war that costs trillions is a good deal. World peace would be nice of course, saves us all a bunch of money - and lives. 
 Sounds like a $1.1B injection into the US defense industry and a boost to our GDP 🤷🏼‍♂️ I’m not saying it makes sense. 
 Casa supporting shitcoins - what a fucking waste 
 I was curious to learn such figures. Where did you find them?

In the end, those resources were meant to meet mid air from the start so it wasn't really a waste on neither side. It wasn't even a significant clearing of military stock as it was hardly 1% of either side's fire power. 
 Iranian drones too effective in Ukraine, so US takes battle to Iran using it's other proxy, Israel. The rest is just narrative. 
 If not the help from USA, UK then could be with extra zero 
 Fiat war

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed.

This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children. The cost of one modern heavy bomber is this: a modern brick school in more than 30 cities. It is two electric power plants, each serving a town of 60,000 population. It is two fine, fully equipped hospitals. It is some fifty miles of concrete pavement. We pay for a single fighter with a half-million bushels of wheat. We pay for a single destroyer with new homes that could have housed more than 8,000 people. . . . 

This is not a way of life at all, in any true sense. Under the cloud of threatening war, it is humanity hanging from a cross of iron."

- Pres. Dwight D. Eisenhower, https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chance_for_Peace_speech

 We still expect to see #Bitcoin to have a parabolic move to top out at $300K+ this cycle, Until then just keep stacking, and build your sats with passive arbitrage pattern to 100x your sats.

If you haven't join the rebelcapitalist vip group already, I would highly recommend it for passive accumulation.

 there's a term "spreadsheet warrior", don't be that guy, war does not work by that logic. 
 This kind of logic ensures perpetual war 
 Iran obviously knows the value of asymmetric warfare. 
 Americans should be sacrificed until they stop funding Israhell
