From the Huffington Post Why Workplace Jargon Is A Big Problem http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/04/25/work-words_n_5159868.html?utm_hp_ref=business&ir=Business When we replace a specific task with a vague expression, we grant the task more magnitude than it deserves. If we don't describe an activity plainly, it seems less like an easily achievable goal and more like a cloudy state of existence that fills unknowable amounts of time. A fog of fast and empty language has seeped into the workplace. I say it's time we air it out, making room for simple, concrete words, and, therefore, more deliberate actions. By striking the following 26 words from your speech, I think you'll find that you're not quite as overwhelmed as you thought you were.

I am going for this being a nothing burger. Iran needs to say they did something so they launch 100 drones that mostly shot down. A few missiles hit some dirt two or three people are hurt. Israel my hit some random out post in Syria now and say Iran owns it. Over and done.
"You surround yourself with a cadre of body guards. Some insane fellow attempts to attack you with a bat and the attack is deflected by those guards. You are not seriously injured. The attacker retreats and has the chance to attack again. Is that a nothing burger?

Before I reply I want you think for yourself why your analogy makes no sense. Try it.
Yes it is nothing burger. Israel will strike some super minor target in retaliation and the whole thing is done.
"Knowing that Israel has the capability of intercepting missiles why does Iran waste over 300 of them? They are doing it to save face?"
Exactly, it is just to say to the local population,...look we struck back.
