1. Why Iron Dome in Jerusalem?
Dee Bee ,   The Galilee, Israel   (09.08.13)
Assad, Hezbollah, Iran, Hamas and their slimey friends would never fire at at Jerusalem because they might just hit Al Aqsa of the Dome of the Rock and then the Sh*t will hit the fan! Ouch! Of course, if they did such an idiotic thing, which I don't put past them, the Arab World and, no doubt, some of our friends, will say "Israel did it" ans Ashton, Hague and the rest of the EU will be the first to swallow the Arab propaganda and condemn Israel. The next thing the powers that be will do is send an Iron Dome unit to defend Ramallah!
2. @1 whatcha smokin'? can I have some?
Israel ,   Israel   (09.08.13)
as we say in Hebrew "the child may still be in 2nd grade but the child is now shaving!" Which is to say that the accuracy of the Arab missiles has increased. So yay they could hit Jerusalem without hitting the dome of the rock. Why just last year Hamas blasted a missile out of Gaza which landed near Jerusalem. So settle down and get real. Who are Ashton, The Hague and the rest of the EU? They all know better than to swallow anything they are all busy counting the money they made by selling chemicals to Assad and selling missiles to the others. If defending Ramallah will save our A$$es then we'll defend Ramallah. Now do us all a favor settle down up there in the Galil settle down.

The reality is Israel has only a SMALL number of iron dome batteries and is just moving them around like pea under the nuts in the old carnival game. When the war starts, 95% of Israel will be unprotected or the limited protection will fail. Anti-projectile systems are severely limited by physics.
4. @3 & u r limited by ur stupidity!

If we believed u in 1948 we would never have established the State.

Israelis might want to re-think the whole "fierce warrior" thing considering a that the world is vastly different these days (1) the world is awash in weapons equal to or better than Israel has (2) per the IDF there are over 50000 missiles pointed at Israel - Is the IDF lying? (3) the existing anti-projectile systems can stop only a small fraction of those missiles - what happens when the rest hit the earth in Israel? The reality is blind faith leads to very bad decisions and thinking a group can not be defeated is a very bad myth, especially since over the last 10000+ years EVERY army that has ever existed has suffered humiliating DEFEAT and the IDf will not be the exception. My feeling is Israelis need to wake up to the fact they can be defeated and start making the SMART political and diplomatic decisions to minimize the hatred in the neighborhood. Until Israel is friendly with its neighbors, it is in danger of losing everything, again, just like the Hebrews.
