The more they fire at our planes, the more missile sites we find. I rather suspect they're happy enough with the firing at this time, since it's not successful, but gives the pilots training in avoidance you can't get on a simulator and that may come in very handy when things heat up. Plus, it wastes their missiles, and I don't know whether they can produce their own missiles or are dependent on imports, which will likely become more difficult to get in under current circumstances.

Let's hope Iraq continues to be so dumb....I would not be surprised to see us start taking out the whole of Saddams "Command and Control" structure if he keeps firing at our planes
