Israel Matzav: Iron Dome is overrated, cannot protect Ben Gurion Airport from a 'Palestinian state'


A defesa israelense é superestimada?

Israel Matzav: Iron Dome is overrated, cannot protect Ben Gurion Airport from a 'Palestinian state': And wounding eight other people and doing lots of property damage. Seven rockets cost Hamas $1,050 ($150 each). The six that Iron Dome shoots down cost $600,000 to shoot down ($50,000 per interceptor, two interceptors per rocket). The one got through cost one dead Israeli, eight wounded Israelis, and several hundred thousand dollars in property damage. That sounds like a pretty favorable calculus for the terrorists.

Hezbullah is said to be capable of shooting hundreds of rockets at once from the north, which will only make matters worse.

Obama wants us to give up territory for a 'Palestinian state,' which would create a third direction for terrorist rocket fire, with Ben Gurion Airport only four miles (which is less than seven kilometers) away from that 'Palestinian state.' So does our own Left. In other words, in addition to its limited effectiveness, Iron Dome cannot protect Ben Gurion Airport.

What could go wrong?
