Israeli lies coming out now....
[link to wakeupfromyourslumber.blogspot.com]
CNN anchor: “[Hizbullah’s rockets] are crude rockets, aren’t they? and after all, their impact has been minimal compared to the impact of Israeli strikes on Lebanon.
Explain something to us, why would you not try to be shooting these Katusha missiles, or rockets I should say – they’re not missiles at all - they’re rockets. Why would Israel not be trying to shoot them out of the sky? They have the capability to do that.
Israeli spokeswoman: No, Rosemarie, these are Katusha rockets which they fire a barrel a dozen and the fact that there haven’t been casualties in Israel shouldn’t necessarily be held against us . . .
WRONG!!! It should be held against Israel because in order to justify a claim of self-defense you must use only the force necessary to repel the degree of force being threatened against you. The force used in "self-defense" must be proportionate. In other words, if there are little or no actual casualties in Israel, then Israel is charged with that knowledge and must be held accountable for excessive force used to defend against it. |

Wrong!
A bullet is a guided munition fired generally in a straight line.
A katusha rocket is fired into the air in an arc to get maximum distance on an unguided trajectory.

World's First Ray Gun Shoots Down Missile (Katyusha rocket)
Redondo Beach - June 7, 2000 - TRW, the U.S. Army and the Israel Ministry of Defence (IMoD) have blazed a new trail in the history of defensive warfare by using the Army's Tactical High Energy Laser/Advanced Concept Technology Demonstrator (THEL/ACTD), the world's first high-energy laser weapon system designed for operational use, to shoot down a rocket carrying a live warhead.
The successful intercept and destruction of a occurred on June 6 at approximately 3:48 p.m. EDT at the Army's High Energy Laser Systems Test Facility (HELSTF), White Sands Missile Range, New Mexico.
The shoot-down was achieved during a high-power laser tracking test conducted as part of the ongoing THEL/ACTD integration process.
"We've just turned science fiction into reality," said Lt. Gen. John Costello, Commanding General, U.S. Army Space & Missile Defense Command.
"This compelling demonstration of THEL's defensive capabilities proves that directed energy weapon systems have the potential to play a significant role in defending U.S. national security interests worldwide."
"This shoot-down is an exciting and very important development for the people of Israel," said Major General Dr. Isaac Ben-Israel, Director of MAFAT, Israel Ministry of Defence.
"With this success, THEL/ACTD has taken the crucial first step to help protect the communities along our northern border against the kind of devastating rocket attacks we've suffered recently."
"The THEL/ACTD shoot-down is a watershed event for a truly revolutionary weapon," said Tim Hannemann, executive vice president and general manager, TRW Space & Electronics Group, the THEL/ACTD system prime contractor.
"It also provides a very positive opportunity for our customers to consider developing more mobile versions of THEL." Any future THEL developments would benefit from continued testing and performance evaluations of the THEL/ACTD's current subsystems, he added.
For this critical first test of THEL/ACTD's defensive capabilities, an armed Katyusha rocket was fired from a rocket launcher placed at a site in White Sands Missile Range.
Seconds later, the THEL/ACTD, located several miles away at HELSTF, detected the launch with its fire control radar, tracked the streaking rocket with its high precision pointer tracker system, then engaged the rocket with its high- energy chemical laser.
Within seconds, the 10-foot-long, 5-inch-diameter rocket exploded.
According to Hannemann, the THEL/ACTD shoot-down represents significant advancements in the maturity of engineering technologies used to design and build deployable directed energy weapon systems.
"In February 1996, as part of the Nautilus laser test program, TRW, the Army and the IMoD used the Mid Infrared Advanced Chemical Laser (MIRACL) and the SeaLite Beam Director installed at HELSTF to intercept and destroy a Katyusha rocket," he said.
"Those tests established high-energy laser lethality against short-range rocket threats, but we had to use a large facility-based laser and beam control system to perform the test." By contrast, he added, THEL/ACTD was designed and produced as a stand-alone defensive weapon system.
Its primary subsystems have been packaged in several transportable, semi-trailer-sized shipping containers, allowing it to be deployed to other test or operational locations.
The U.S. currently has no weapon systems capable of protecting soldiers or military assets involved in regional conflicts against short-range rocket attacks.
Conventional missile-based defense systems, such as the Army's Theater High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) and Patriot Advanced Capability -3 (PAC-3), are designed to defend against longer range threats such as Scud missiles.
By comparison, tactical directed energy systems such as THEL/ACTD send out "bullets" at the speed of light, allowing them to intercept and destroy "last minute" or low-flying threats such as rockets, mortars or cruise missiles on a very short timeline.
"It's pretty hard to run from a laser," said Hannemann.
The THEL/ACTD was designed, developed and produced by a TRW-led team of U.S. and Israeli contractors for the U.S. Army Space & Missile Defense Command, Huntsville, Ala., and the Israel Ministry of Defence.
Requirements for the system have been driven in part by Israel, which needs to protect civilians living in towns and communities along its northern border against rocket attacks by terrorist guerrillas.
TRW has been engaged in laser research and development since the early 1960s. The company produces solid-state lasers for defense and industrial applications, and designs and develops a variety of high-energy chemical lasers for space, ground and airborne missile defense applications.

Army Laser Shoots Down Rocket
posted: 03:59 pm ET
07 June 2000
WHITE SANDS MISSILE RANGE, N.M. (AP) -- A new laser weapon being developed to protect Israel from short-range missile attacks shot down a target rocket for the first time in a successful test, project officials said.
The Tactical High Energy Laser took out a short-range Katyusha rocket on Tuesday, Lt. Gen. John Costello said in a statement issued by the U.S. Army Space and Missile Defense Command in Huntsville, Alabama. Later tests will attempt to shoot down multiple rockets.
A string of rocket attacks on Israel in 1996 prompted President Clinton to approve the program by the Army and the Israeli Ministry of Defense to develop the $250 million weapon. Congress is considering an additional $5.7 million for the laser.
Army officials planned to turn it over to Israel this fall if tests proved it effective. Defense Department spokesman Kenneth Bacon has said it is up to Israel to disclose how and when it plans to deploy the new weapon. The Soviet-designed Katyusha rockets are used by Hezbollah guerrillas against Israel.
The laser weapon is being built under contract by Cleveland-based TRW Space and Laser Programs Division. Costs have been shared by the Israeli and U.S. governments.
Although this would be the first laser weapon built for defense against rockets, the Defense Department has said it has no immediate plan to use it with U.S. forces, in part because the system is not easily transportable. The Pentagon is working on a variety of other laser-weapon technologies that could be used to shoot down ballistic missiles in flight, although deployment of such weapons is at least a decade away.

US military scores laser success
Katyusha rocket
Katyusha rockets are used to target Israel
The US army has, for the first time, shot down an artillery shell in flight using a high-powered laser weapon.
Tactical high energy lasers have the capacity to change the face of the battlefield
US Army Lt Gen Joseph Cosumano
The weapon system tracked and locked on to the shell, before firing a beam of light at the projectile and hitting it.
The US Army's Space and Missile Defence Command said that "seconds later, at a point well short of its intended destination, the projectile was destroyed".
The Mobile Tactical High Energy Laser (MTHEL) is being developed by the TRW Corporation for use by the US military and the Israeli Defence Ministry.
Two years ago, it successfully shot down a Katyusha rocket, but in Monday's test it managed to destroy a shell moving at a higher speed.
The test took place at the White Sands missile range in New Mexico.
Potent weapon
A laser is a device that produces and amplifies light of a particular wavelength, or colour, which is then directed at a target with great accuracy.
If the laser is powerful enough, it can generate very high temperatures on the spot on which the light falls, melting or vaporising the target.
Military scientists are trying to develop lasers and tracking systems that can follow and hit fast-moving objects at distances ranging from tens of kilometres to, in theory, thousands of kilometres.
"This shoot-down shifts the paradigm for defensive capabilities," Lieutenant General Joseph Cosumano, head of the missile defence command, said of the latest test.
"We have shown that even an artillery projectile hurtling through the air at supersonic speed is no match for a laser."
Israeli interest
The laser was built as a joint project between the US and Israel.
The Israeli Government is interested in the system because Katyusha rockets are used by militant Islamic groups in attacks on Israel.
The system stems in part from a commitment former US President Bill Clinton made in April 1996 to then Israeli Prime Minister Shimon Peres to aid Israel in developing a security system against rockets.
Lasers were behind the space-based missile defence shield idea, labelled "Star Wars", first suggested by US President Ronald Reagan in 1983.
