that there is no effective countermeasure to rockets once launched. The West has been lulled to believing that anti-missile systems are reliable. What an irony that it is Israel`s enemies that have the upper hand in modern ballistic weaponry and the ability to fight a war by remote control! A particular concern is the ability of enemy missiles to target Israel`s airfields and incapacitate its airforce in a future conflict. The only possible answer is a rapid, full-scale ground invasion to at least prevent short-range missiles from being used and launching massive attacks from the sea against targets in Lebanon, Syria and Gaza.
