Iron dome earns its paycheck

Dozens of unguided rockets fired at Israeli civilians taken out by the Iron Dome system. The only way they get through is by swamping the system, and then it is only a few out of hundreds. Every single rocket fired by the hamas terrorists constitutes a way crime as it was fired at women and children, not military targets.

here's a map of the rocket attacks

I'm assuming that Iron Dome is a more advanced version of the Patriot Missiles that were used during the first Gulf War

basically yes, but far more effective. IT is taking out 9 out of 10 of the thousands of rockets fired over the last couple of days. I dont know if the israelis sell it around the world but if they do orders will go through the roof. Before the last couple of days it would take out almost all rockets that it concludes will hit a populated area. It ignores the ones that will fall in unpopulated areas.
But at about $80000 a shot it is not cheap. But you cant put a price on security like that.
The palestinian rockets cost between $1000 and $5000 a time and they have a stockpile of 30000, they claim. So that is around $100million they dod not spend on their people. Iran will undoubtedly pay a price for supplying them.
