  1. Their SAMs seem to work quite well swatting the crude ballistic fireworks out of the sky as it is.

    And it costs them $20k-$50k per missile (Iron Dome) to shoot down a rocket that cost $800-$1000 (Qassam and Grad rockets) You do the financial math about just sitting back and shooting them down. (bear in mind they usually have to fire two missiles to intercept each rocket)

     

    Both.

    How did they determine and confirm the latter? How did you confirm the story's voracity? And what do the writers consider "militants"? (this could be radically different from the definition given by the majority of the world)

  2. My first job was as a baggage handler at PHX... I was fired because someone claimed to hear me say the word "bomb", even though I never did. I was fired 3 days before 3 months, so they just barely made it under the wire for unemployment.

     

    Second job was as a bagger for a grocery store, and stayed there 9 months until my family was moving out of state.

     

    Took 3.5 more years to find a job after that, and then it was a pair of seasonal positions.

     

    6 months after my last position brings me to now, and in 9 hours I start my first full-time permanent position in 9 years.
