#1 Smart move by the paleos - we all know the Israelis' helicopter gunships don't have anywhere near a 25 km range, so they won't be able to retaliate.

Right?

Right?

#3 "Can you hit me now?"

Is 25 km the range or the CEP?

#4 These guys have no care for the people who live with them.

They never thought about the fact that if they are capable of building missliles, they could probably improve the infrastructure of Gaza so everyone there can live better, the fucks.

#6 Ummm, nice sentiment, Penguin, but what makes you think the paleos built the rockets?

They're not capable of building anything but bomb belts. And considering the number for "work accidents" they have, they're not even very good at that.

With rockets like this CEP = Range.

#9 THe point is they came within earshot of a group of 5 year olds. It is again time to not only go after the Paleos but not who ever gave them the capability to fire blindly. This is just one step away from someone giving them something with a crude guidance system.

#10 new rocket, named Grad

Grad ?
As in BM-21 Grad MRLS ?

Egypt had better explain how Russian MRLS rockets are getting over their borders...

#11 Grad MLRS rockets are 9 foot in length with a range of 20 km

"The 122-mm fin-stabilized rockets can deliver Frag-HE, chemical, or incendiary warheads to a range of over 20 kilometers, or the newer HE and cargo rockets out to 30 kilometers. On explosion, the warhead produces a great fragmentation effect and shock wave."

#13 ..they could probably improve the infrastructure of Gaza so everyone there can live better,..

Yep, it's always Israel that's expected to make a/the goodwill gesture, ain't it? Even though these goodwill gestures rarely, if ever, have resulted in any "goodwill" reciprocal actions by the Paleos. Israel is expected to release prisoners, improve infrastructure, allow passage, stop conducting military action, and for what? Have the Paleos stopped planning/conducting attacks against Jewish civilians? Hmmm?

The short answer: NO.

#14 The Paleos are stuck on stupid. The IDF announces that they will enforce a no-man's-land to eliminate Qassams, and the Pals announce a rocket with a 25 km range. I expect a new 25km mo-man's-land. Dumb.

#15 Is there some question as to the intelligence of Paleos ? We're talking Muslims here. This is not rocket science. Muslims are fools who believe Allan is running the show and then don't realize that they are losing badly probably because Allan hates their guts. They also believe Allan is going to give them 6 dozen virgins or raisins after they're dead. This kind of stupidity has deep, thick roots. Actually, it was a joke but they can only remember the punch line. Allan was not going to give them 6 dozen virgins or raisins, but the juice from 6 dozen virgins or raisins.
Punch line, No, not again, we hate the joos.

#16 I came by a stat that 45% of the Iranians use drugs at least sometimes... What's the stat for the Palos?

#17 There will be no Palestinian State.

There will be lots of smoking holes in the ground.
