| #6 A Phalanx souns good, but I wouldn't worry about "Airburst Amminution" who cares where in Gaza the spent slugs land, I sure don't. Now a radar sighted automatic five inch gun with "Beehive" ammo sounds better, Shotgun them out of the air. |

| #5 A Phalanx system only costs about $5.5M, and would blast every incoming rocket and mortar to bits. The only expense beyond that would be airburst ammo and noise abatement. |

| #2 For a lot less than that they could clear an area 4.5 km from the Israeli border in Gaza. Napalm is pretty cheap then? |
