Perhaps Israel should use some of this defense technology on their borders?

1. They don't want to fix the problem

They need something to struggle against, pin re-election on, and to make it possible to keep funding their military with obscene amounts of money

2. Three minutes

and twenty six seconds of bullshit. The big one didn't make them enough money, now they are going to try to sell us a little one. And all those armchair commanders out there will eat it up. It'll appeal to a lot of peaceniks too because it doesn't fire a projectile and is supposedly designed to "neutralize" the incoming projectile without harming the guy who shot it.

It's the same old story. They spend a thousand, we spend a million, and they still win.

3. You have to stop before you can use it? I can see a problem here.

And did you notice when the animation shot the rocket and it blew up, all forward momentum of the pieces ceased. They all just fell straight down.

How much money could this country save by investing in diplomats and using negotiations?
Naa, that's too adult like. Killing brown people is more fun.
