#1 if they launch one missile, Da Jooos should blow up Al-Aksa and blame it on Hamas

#2 Frank, if one of their own missiles hit Al-Aksa, they'd STILL blame it on da Jooos

#3 So essentially it would be a 'blame-free' kaboom, since da Joooz can't get blamed any more than they are now.

#4 Black op by Israel, a rocket launched from Gaza and takes out the Dome.

#5 On a more practical note, Jerusalem has an area of only 48 square miles, so it would not be unreasonable for Israel to build two or three tunnels leading out of the city to giant underground bunkers with enough food, water and medical supplies for 2-3 weeks.

The city only has a population of 780,000, and the metro area over a million, but those on the periphery can evacuate on the surface, with those inside the city proper taking wide automatic sidewalks, such as are used in airport concourses.

These can move a lot of people on foot a long distance quickly.

#6 With a target of only 48 square miles, can Hizbollah even expect tohit it? Half the time they can't even hit Israel when launching from Gaza.

#7 as Dr Steve says (and I hinted at) they'll be blamed anyway. Never let a crisis go to waste. Blow Al-Aksa off the Mount and blame the Hamas rockets.
