220 mm rocket, range range 43.5 miles, probably Syrian-manufactured Russian "Ouragan" Multiple Launch Rocket System

Drop one on Moscow.

"B302" 302 mm rocket, range 62 miles, warhead 386 pounds, probably Syrian-manufactured Chinese WS-1 MLRS

Drop one on Beijing.

Then ask them what else they are supplying Tehran.

Pot = Kettle

Flechettes are an anti-personnel weapon that is generally fired from tanks. The shell explodes in the air and releases thousands of metal darts 3.75 mm in length, which disperse in a conical arch three hundred meters long and about ninety meters wide. .

The IDF uses flechette shells (M494 105mm APERS-T rounds) that are 105 mm in diameter and are fired from tanks.

Supplied by none other than - the USofA - and the IDF has been using them for years. Lots of bad blood to go around.

Well, this is exactly how anti-personnel weapons are made these days. Actually, for quite some time now. I suppose the dimwit thought they were supposed to make them out of paper so they'd just go BOOM?

"will encourage radical movements to adopt rocket attacks against U.S. and Western forces and assets."

The VC/NVA used 122's and 107's against us in Viet Nam, nasty things they were to. In a fire fight you knew more or less where things were going to go, but rockets are so bloody random. Don't know where they come from until it is to late, and don't have a clue where they may land. They were terrifying.

So what?

According to most Americans the killing of civilians in war means the terrorists are "winning".

I mean is it not a fact that the majority here will vote for Dems because Iraq is a so-called "mess" because civilians are being murdered in the marketplace.

And that means Iraq was a mistake and we should get out?

The President's approval on Iraq is low because the terrorists are winning by killing civilians.

Evidently, Americans and people worldwide are willing to give the Islamic Cults a great VICTORY for blowing up women and children.
