Yeah, but by that time Israel would have launched retaliatory strikes.

History is littered with claims of a weapon systems protective abilities.

One would think so, but with Olmert as PM, who knows? And even if Israel does retaliate quickly, all it takes is one nuke to slip through to take out Tel Aviv.

Who's the yutz that came up with this plan?..
Isreal is too small an area for this tactic.. MADD tactics is the only way.. Isreal has nukes too.. They need to make it known.. Nuke Isreal and every muslim capital from Damascus to Pakistan will become a parking lot....

Discussing the Second Lebanon War, Herzog said a missile defense system that was effective against the short-range Katyusha ... could have changed the outcome in Israel's favor.

A very important point and I recall discussions of this on FR last summer. Just hoping and praying that Israel has learned from this experience and is prioritizing the development of such a system.

Well, you're right about Olmert--but I was assuming a willingness to retaliate.

"...The only full protection against Iran is dead leaders of that unfortunate land. Lots of dead leaders. Maybe thousands..."

The fact that one missile with either nukes or bio/chemical weapons might get through would make the Israelis wonder if this is the real answer.

Yep. Anyone in the Air Defense community will tell you there are always "leakers" who will slip through the crack. The (current) Israeli Government is delusional if they believe this.

the Israeli- and American-developed Arrow missile, one of the only operational ballistic missile defense systems in the world.

When I have bent Judah for me and filled the bow with Ephraim ping.
