This is a solid analysis, but it’s misleading and biased against Israel. Having been in Israel during this unprovoked attack, I can tell you that we witnessed miracles. In fact, the only fatality was a Palestinian who had illegally entered from Gaza.

The Iron Dome isn’t designed to intercept ballistic missiles—that’s what the Arrow and David’s Sling systems are for. And let’s not forget, we also have God on our side.

Good points about Arrow and David's Sling. I will learn more about them. Thank you for mentioning them. I had lumped it all into the Iron Dome label.

Yours is a dissenting point of view as it relates to Israel. I am not a fan at all at this point as Netanyahu is pushing the world into a large war in that region. That is not good for anybody except him.

So I will ask you this: When are the people of Israel going to bring his government down and replace it with one that will negotiate? War is not going to work as a solution, no matter how many people his government kills.

Negotiations and ceasefires have consistently led to one outcome—more bloodshed in the long term. We, the residents of Israel, support Netanyahu because he is finally addressing the issue decisively. If you had a garden overrun with weeds and thorns, would you leave them because they might prick you, or would you remove them to create a beautiful space? We're in a similar situation, except the "weeds and thorns" are terrorists and those filled with hatred. Despite this, we've tried to negotiate many times, but Hamas has never accepted a fair deal.

The only ones who need replacing are the corrupt Arab leaders.

Best solution; never have anything to do with the Middle-East. What's the point? They've nothing to offer us except trouble.

I say leave them to their shit-sandwich, and just isolate the region and stop sending food and such there. Leave it be.

We should have always focused our investments, our energies into Europe, America, Africa and Asia. Basically Christendom and Asia.

AIPAC would beg to differ with you, my friend. Thus, the US meddling in the Middle East will continue. Almost all of the politicians in DC live in fear of AIPAC.

Good point, which is ridiculous, wish the US would start behaving like an Empire and not a vassal with regards to the Mid-East.
