Iron Dome: Missile defense system a game changer, Israelis say

[pelsar]

39. a few facts for the foolish, ignorent and those who dont like the facts:

Hamas is now using military grade missiles..that have guidance systems. the missiles are shot from civilian areas, from "buried areas" etc (just about anywhere)

the iron dome is not a PR exercise but an excellent but not perfect defense measure

additional measures are warning systems, hardened shelters etc. that protect the civilian population
___

hamas targets schools during the hours of entering and exiting when most of the parents and kids are present, they have it hospitals as per the guidence system of the missles permit as well as a other apt buildings.

hamas has been shooting at israeli almost daily for the last years: a mortar here, a few sniper shots there a missle now and then
__

there wil be those that defend hamas for targeting civilians, will claim the missiles are nothing more than fire crackers, have hurt a few.... and therefore its "ok" or that israel shooting back with larger bombs is really the bad guy..or at best will claim its the same thing....

its actually nothing more than using a second, lower standard for the Palestinians
