The Myth of The Iron Dome


We kept hearing about how the iron dome would reduce attacks on Israel by the Arab terrorists in Gaza and what had been known as Gush Katif.

The Israeli media put all its faith in the technology that a "machine" would catch the weapons before they landed in Israel.

Now we're hearing some common sense form experts that it's no great panacea.

The Arabs will continue attacking us.  They'll just attack more and more and try to get through the "shield."

We must stop the attacks, the physical military attacks and the legal ones, too.  Various countries have been using a new weapon against Israel, "international law."  Israel must protest and withdraw its ambassador from any country which institutes law suits against Israeli officials for alleged "war crimes."  Forget fighting the law suits as legal problems.  It won't help.

PS Why doesn't some international civil rights group give us cameras to record our lives?  Are they afraid to learn the turth?

The Shomron Regional Council has given its residents video cameras to record the TRUTH in the Shomron. They've even given residents LESSONS on how to make those video clips. Every Moetza (Municipality) should do the same. We can't wait for the Israeli government to act. That would just never happen. But we can ask our local governments to help us TELL THE TRUTH about events in Israel.

The Shomron Council takes pr seriously. Kol hakovod to them. The Arabs get the help from international "human rights" groups.

I'd like to see some of those videos. Where are they and who is going to do the PR to make sure the world sees them en masse?

The thing that brought down the Iron Curtain was the Reagan imaginary star wars program that was not close to being ready but Russia was going bankrupt to make sure it could get by.
The difference not the cheapness of the Arab rockets, but rather that it might simply wear the Arabs out when they see that the iron dome is working. I would even think about having the media publize propaganda when it becomes operational and not say how goos it is.

josh, they'll just get more advanced stuff. The world is backing them morally and financially.
