| More Jewish Superpowers: Israelis can now see through walls. |
| 2004-07-04 |
| Hat Tip: LGF (Charles’ comments are very funny on this one) Israeli scientists have developed revolutionary new radar technology that will allow people to see through walls. or the covers of Arafat’s red binder? The radar system, developed by the Herzliya-based Camero company, can produce a three-dimensial image of what lies behind a wall by the use of ultra-wideband technology, Haaretz newspaper reported Thursday. The quality of the pictures is similar to that produced by ultrasound and they can be taken from a distance of up to 20 meters (yards). Even Saudi burqas aren’t that thick. Bwuwahhaahhhaaa! The company’s chief executive Aharon Aharon said an initial prototype of the device was expected to be ready in 18 months and could help rescue workers find victims of disasters. I could think of a few other applications, like the prevention of certain disasters. "When disaster victims must be rescued from a collapsed building or a fire, time is of the essence," Aharon told the paper. "Rescue forces often invest enormous resources and precious time in combing the rubble, or endanger their lives by entering the flames, even if it is not clear that there are any survivors behind the walls." They could use it in Gaza to find any survivors who need to be finished off. |

| #13 Speaking of tenuous versions of reality, I was watching Fox this morning where a bubbleheaded bleach blond was interviewing a journalist. I can't remember his name (darn it)but he asked an Iraqi why he supported Tater when Tater was the one who murdered a rival Cleric on the steps of their most holy site. The answer was, to me, unbelievable. The one he was interviewing said it wasn't Tater, it was "the Jews". Yesterday the same bubblehead interviewed Wayne Rogers and said, "Why shouldn't we listen to the French? They know a lot about the Middle East because they have a lot of Muslims in France". I almost laughed my ass off. Wayne Rogers doesn't think we should ever have anything more to do with the French. He's one of the few Hollywooders who support the President. |

| #12 And thanks for the kind wishes, Tony (UK). May you all always be our friends. I'm reminded of a large sign seen in London on the occasion of our 200th Independence Day celebration: "Happy Birthday, America. Love, Mum." :-p |

| #10 Raptor - you're more than welcome. GK - like it centurion! Seriously though (if it's possible to be serious in a thread where we're talking about death rays!) - stories like this are bound to freak out the Arab Street (TM). Since 9/11, I, along with many of you I'm sure, have spent a lot more time examining the media in the Arab world, using sites like this, LGF and many more. One thing seems to shine through - the tenous version of reality that is being pumped to the Arab Street (TM) by their media. I don't think it hurts the Israelis to have their enemies think of them as having something like 'superpowers'. Although we're all talking about the WoT implications of this technology (I know that's what I thought of first of all), the Israeli CEO is only talking about the humanitarian aspects of it. If an Arab country invented this (some hopes), what do you think they'd use it for? |

| #9 #8 Tony, it is a logical development. Now the IDF will know where to aim the death ray. Oh, you mean a specific target, rather than just a general direction |

| #6 Ah the famous red binder. What secrets it holds. Can you imagine what the Arab press is going to do with this? The Zionist death rays (tm) and now this... And what do you think the Palestians will do? Hopefully, shit themselves. Oh, and by the way - a Happy Independence day to all you former colonists! |

| #3 Now the Israelis can see the Arab parents telling their children to throw rocks at Israelis and stop them before they get hurt. The Arab parents can be ID' quickly and locked up until they can act like real parents. |
