I hope to read after Shabbat that the war against the arab occupiers has started. The media is virtually ignoring the story that the terrorist occupiers have been launching more and more missiles day after day. Baruch Hashem the IDF has deployed the 'missile shield' called Iron Dome, but this shield is a false hope in trying to protect Jews from their sworn enemies who are foaming at the mouth to kill them.
Iron Dome alone will not save the Jewish people from these blood thirsty vermin. A ground war with troops going house to house to round up 'militant' terrorists is required. I believe that the Israeli intelligence knows a lot about where the terrorists live and breed. Like rats they should be exterminated with haste. They should not be captured and imprisoned. As we learn all those terrorists who have been captured and imprisoned have been released so that they can resume their dastardly plots to kill as many Jews as they can.
What nation would allow enemies to pummel them with missiles? These are no longer home-made Kassam rockets. Today these terrorists are firing the much-improved Grad missiles which they obtain from their terror-supporting friends in Iran.
The time has come to stop 'p ussy-footing' around with these creepy arabs. Like a dog which has defecated in the living room, the arabs must have their noses rubbed into their dirty work. And like dogs they should be 'put to sleep'...

In the first operational launch, Iron Dome intercepted a BM-21 Grad rocket fired from the Gaza Strip toward the Israeli city of Ashkelon. Israeli military sources said Iron Dome, produced by the state-owned Rafael Advanced Defense Systems, fired two Tamir interceptors and destroyed the Palestinian rocket.
"This is the first time a short-range rocket has been intercepted in combat," a military source said.
Over the last month, the Israel Air Force deployed two Iron Dome batteries in southern Israel. The military stressed that Iron Dome was still being tested as crews underwent training.
"Our Iron Dome intercepted two projectiles successfully," Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said.
The military sources did not confirm that two Palestinian rockets were intercepted. They said, however, that Palestinian gunners had fired several Grads toward Ashkelon.
"During IDF operations in Gaza Strip region on Thursday evening [April 7], an Iron Dome battery successfully intercepted a rocket fired from Gaza towards Israel," an Israeli military statement said.
Iron Dome was designed to intercept missiles and rockets with a range of up to 80 kilometers. But the sources acknowledged that the system needed further enhancements to handle salvos as well as mortars. So far, 178 mortars and rockets were launched from the Gaza Strip in Israel in 2011.
"Hamas knows this and has been firing mostly mortars with ranges too short for interception by Iron Dome," the source said.
Israel intends to procure up to six Iron Dome batteries by mid-2013, officials said. They said the Defense Ministry, based on a promise of $205 million in U.S. aid, was discussing additional production with Rafael.
"This gives us hope that over time we can develop some better defense for our civilians," Netanyahu said
