Anonymous Coward User ID: 11002716 United States 02/19/2012 01:13 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | ...for the first time as part of a drill simulating a missile attack. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 11088723 you forgot Yes, because we should only post 50% of the article. yes I don't think the "drill simulating a missile attack" negates anything in the story. Besides, even if it weren't for a drill they would say it was because they'd have to give the people an explanation for seeing the equipment deployed. |

Though the Iranians desperately need religious justification to retaliate, and that can only happen IF Iranian sites are attacked. |

Quoting: Praescientia Though the Iranians desperately need religious justification to retaliate, and that can only happen IF Iranian sites are attacked. The Iron Dome system was designed to intercept short-range rockets like Hamas or Hezbollah have. It can´t intercept by any means a ballistic missile fired from Syria or Iran. It would be like trying to down an aircraft with a slingshot. |

Quoting: Praescientia Though the Iranians desperately need religious justification to retaliate, and that can only happen IF Iranian sites are attacked. well true, but you use everything you can, and if Iron Dome can stop a major missile onslaught on Tel Aviv, which I believe it can, they have time to stall and pinpoint the missile launchers and take them out. |

I know it was being tested last July. |

Praescientia User ID: 10976438 United States 02/19/2012 01:42 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Don't you get it? Iran's theocratic leadership, including the Ayatollah want Israel and the west to attack them, they are virtually begging for it now... They cannot unleash their war plans unless they are first the victims of an attack by the "great Satan" (USA) and Israel. Defenses against missile attacks may offer some security where there is none, but it will be completely ineffective against an Iranian sponsored series of attacks and retaliations. Israel and the west are being baited by Iran, and it seems they are taking it, hook line and sinker. |
