I love this map.
I mean, turn it around, in the other direction, the entire West Bank is in range of WW2 artillery (and Israel has advanced WW2 technology a bit).
Do you think Sharon (and his predecessors) don't know that? IMO, the restraint, given the targeting of Israeli civilians, is appalling.
That's WAY obsolete. Base-bleed 152mm [Soviet] and 155 [US/NATO/Israeli] projectiles extend the range of medium-heavy guns well beyond that shown, and the Israeli RAP projectiles for the 175mm are nearly double that listed. Thank Dr Gerald Bull and SRC in Canada for many of the developments along those lines....

BTW, my question on the M14 bullpup came from something I read some time ago, that it was a thought in early development. I can't imagine the ejection port under my nose. My ears, they'd ber ruptured anyway. I did a search and came up with one hit, no text. What is that?
That's an AWC G2 modification of a US M14 rifle, a stock and sight mount add-on to make the old M14 a bit more adaptable to a muzzlemount silencer/suppressor, AWCs real line of products. The Israelis use the similar M36 Sardius/Sirkus-designed bullpup M14, [now the TCI M89SR] so that the silencer-equipped rifle remains of about the sdame overall length as the original as-issued M14.
The AWC company is still in business, and I believe their G2 package for upgrading the M14 [or semiauto Springfield Armory M1A] remains available...though not cheap.
