Still the wrong way of handling this.

The proper procedure would be one round of 155 mm arty counterbattery fire for every rocket launched.

Don’t tell me it can’t be done, either. With the systems available today, you can pinpoint a launch site seconds after the first rocket lifts. A good team of cannon-cockers can have steel rain down on that position fast enough to get the launchers, and of course, the launchees.

And I don’t give a rat’s hind end if it’s a mosque, a hospital or even an orphanage. Once it became clear that EVERY rocket would get the same treatment, the Pallies would stop the launch turds from setting them up.

Your theory needs to be tested then.

Works for me.....and would probably work in real life.
And that is why we probably won’t see it happen.

I like the thought (being an old artilleryman); but the problem is they fire the suckers and beat feet - they’re not there when the HE arrives. Israel should turn Gaza into a parking lot on the beach.

In the movie Untouchables Sean Connery said properly, “when they send one of yours to the hospital, You send 10 of theirs to the morgue.
