Hizbullah would likely shoot between 400 and 600 missiles a day into Israel during a future war, a senior Mossad official told a congressional delegation to Israel in 2009, according to a US diplomatic cable published on Sunday. The cable from November 2009 summed up meetings a delegation led by Ike Skelton (D-Missouri) held with top officials from the Mossad, the Shin Bet (Israel Security Agency) and the IDF. It was first published on Sunday by Norway’s Aftenposten newspaper, which received it from WikiLeaks. According to the Mossad official, 100 of the missiles will hit Tel Aviv.

The civilians who have no problem with rocket launchers and artilery emplacements in their back yards are not civilians, they are combatants.
Wow. Is that anywhere close to the truth?
And Israel can drop just one and that would be the end to the story.
Most of what they have are lousy kaytushas or worse.
I know they have some fancy stuff from china, but most of what they have is bluster.
Well... The IDF should be able to make sure that such an attack lasts only about an hour. They most likely already know where the rockets are stored at various locations. Unlike the current US DoD, the Israeli IDF would not choose to sit and talk about peace. Go Israel!
⅝” is a beefy bottle rocket. Hezbollah could start a fire with those things surenuff.
Israel only needs one.
It could get ugly, unless the $hiteaters back off.
They will not, as civilian casualties are their goal.
Then the un pigs can go all hyprecrap on Israel, after some maggot and his kids get vaporized by Israeli artillery response rounds while watching the launchers flame his back yard.. Kind of like our fourth of July, but with others shooting back...
Dont mess with Texas! Thats what we give the childrunz for fun.
If Hezbeulah can fire that many rockets a day, the
Israelis can certainly reply in kind, the secondary
explosions should be spectacular.
The IDF response will be swift and accurate.
No “need” for adjustment, but those things ‘launch platforms’ look like dismantled school yard equipment.
Call it a Palestinian School Yard swing set. That is their “playground”. I joke but it might actually be the case, the Palestinians put launchers in just such places, daring retaliation.
Then they better launch them from northern Lebanon, or eastern Syria, as the New Occupied Territories will encompass a buffer area that includes their present launch locations.

Can anyone say Armageddon?
Not if Israel pre-emptively destroys all their launch sites. They aren't hard to find... any standing building in Gaza is a launch site. Level all the standing buildings and there won't be anywhere near as many launches.
