Several videos of the Iron Dome in action.

A video released by the Israel Defense Forces shows one among several Israeli Iron Dome batteries working overtime to prevent missiles from raining down on civilians, homes and cities.

Raining that many rockets on Israel is likely to earn Hamas a very big ground sweep.

Excellent videos in any event.

But the left told us years ago during the Reagan Administration this was impossible. They were wrong then as they are wrong now about damn near everything.

If not for the iron dome how many Israelis would be dead?

Would people in the media and on twitter be crying for them?

What happens to the debris from all those rockets and the rockets that don’t explode? It doesn’t just evaporate into thin air. It must rain down on populated areas? I’d like to know what happens to it.

It falls down. What else would happen to it? I'm confused as to why you even have this question.

Falling pieces of rockets is preferable to falling intact rockets.

God's chosen people.

Alot of people think that is crap, but you have to look at the history of how Israel came to be a country. Makes you wonder!

The flight of the Incoming missile is analyzed, then the best spot to blow it up (based on the landing location of the resulting debris field) is determined. Sometimes that debris field will include people, but the attempt is made to limit the impact.

On another note, the iron dome missiles don’t generally “hit” the incoming missile, instead they fly beside it and blow themselves up taking out the incoming missile in the process.

At least that is my understanding.

I wish dumbass leftists would imagine for 10 seconds what the US would do if a Mexican Drug Cartel was lobbing rockets and mortar rounds into downtown San Diego.

We probably would have already tactically nuked several cities.

Now that is interesting. Thank you for your knowledgeable response.

I really doubt we would. Particularly this current administration. To them it would mean more citizens dependent on the federal government which to them is always ideal.

Change it to San Francisco and I am not sure most folks would give a crap.
