There is no way that Israel can mount an effective defence against barrages of Katyusha missiles.

This is a missile to ensure that Israel will have a second strike capability if Iran acquires parity with Israel.

Or it is a test of Israeli weapons systems which are shortly to be used on Iran, abd also as a deterrent to Saudi Arabia and other Gulf States who have just been sold topline weapons by President Bush.
