Israel already has some pretty good antimissile defense in its Iron Dome.

Not exactly, Iron Dome is for much more local rockets and missiles, launched from a range of 4-70 km. It does not have the operational ceiling to target long range ballistic missiles launched into space from hundreds to thousands of km away.

The Arrow system is designed for the latter, and the Arrow-3 is now being deployed, although I’m not sure how many Israel has right now. Let’s hope that they can afford enough of the Arrow-3s to provide very full protection against whatever Obozo has helped Iran to develop.

Yeah and let’s pray that they have LOTS of them to deal with the threat and have lots of reloads ready.
