Israel did well out of this.
The Iron Dome system got some extremely valuable calibration over the past days.
Plus all that free advertising to Nations that are looking for their own missile defense system and have deep checkbooks.
I just finished listening to a lefty-slanted teevee news broadcast about this. I don’t normally listen to the teevee but this was in the lobby of a motel where I was having breakfast.
At least they let an Israeli guy tell his side, which of course was that the barrage of rockets was unprovoked. (I know of nothing specific that led to it, not even a Pallie demand. They just started shooting out of the blue. And shoot yeah, Israel has every right to answer that with hell fire.) Israel is insisting that the terrorism be dismantled before peace can be negotiated. The fools in Gaza are partying, but for the wrong reason. If they were sane they might be tickled that the idiot rocketeers were stomped and stopped. But unless they themselves are willing to put a lid on that sort of thing, there won’t be any peace.
