What has become of Iron Dome? This missile protection system which was supposed to save the residents of Southern and Northern Israel from incoming missile attacks appears to not be working as advertised... When will the people start asking the questions which need to be asked? When will the people demand that the missile attacks cease? The Jewish people, nor any honorable Israeli citizen, do not deserve to live in the shadow of fear and terror. The media led us to believe that we can cower in the corner when the air-raid siren sounds, and that we can be protected by a modern computer-guided anti-missile system named 'Iron Dome'...
These defensive and mouse-like attempts to save the Jewish people from destruction at the hands of vicious anti-semitic muslim enemies are insufficient to stop the onslaught. The so-called 'tit-for-tat' defensive operations against sites which are verified to have been used for launching missiles is also a failed strategy. The enemy is escalating the attacks and has no fear because he feels he has nothing to lose. Israel is in dire straights because she is hamstrung by the international community who prevents her from acting in her best defense. The liberal sickness which has intoxicated the leadership of Israel for way too long is getting much more terminal, and it is leading to things such as Netanyahu agreeing to suicide 1947 armistice lines which divide Israel like a dissected animal.
This report about a missile attack today makes me livid:

Terrorists from the Gaza Strip fired on Wednesday evening a Grad rocket at the Lachish region. The rocket fell in an open area between Sderot and Kiryat Gat, close to one of the communities in the Lachish Region.
One woman suffered anxiety from the fall, but no other injuries were reported and no damage was done.
Army Radio reported that the “Red Alert” siren was heard in the communities in the area just before the rocket fell. The report noted that this is the farthest that terrorists have fired a rocket into Israeli territory since before Operation Cast Lead in Gaza in 2009.
The report also said that the rocket was likely fired by a terror group which opposes the Hamas government in Gaza.
Later, a second Grad rocket was fired from the Gaza region. The rocket slammed into an open area near the city of Ashkelon. There were no reports of physical injuries or damage.
The "Red Alert" siren was sounded before this rocket fell as well.
On Monday, a Kassam rocket was fired from the Gaza Strip towards southern Israel. It landed in an open field near Ashkelon, wounding a Bedouin woman in a nearby tent.
In response, IAF aircraft targeted a terror activity site in the northern Gaza Strip and a smuggling tunnel in the southern Gaza Strip.
