2. I'd sure like to see the original source of the story
Hebrew media ....."Scientists" in Haifa ...

Is the scientist cited a "government scientist?"

Or is this just some blowhard with an idea? Has the government endorsed this? Or are we required to take a leap that because some SCIENTIST says it is a good idea for the government, that the government somehow OWNS that thought...? And because some scientist says the government should buy this contraption, thus, that's your "proof" that Israel is warmongering?

You'd think, if it were such a hot idea, you'd see stories about it hither and yon.

I can't find shit about this story anywhere but this cite...and it's not like there's even ONE mention of the publication/s that featured this story in that article, which would make it a stronger read if they could come up with something other than, say, "Jewish Weekly World News, featuring the Hebrew Batboy" or something along those lines....and, not that this guy does not have every right to his opinion and his point of view, he is NOT a reporter, he's a commentator who backs a particular side in this conflict.
