Israelis Sue Government For Laser Cannons
An anonymous reader writes "Residents of a southern Israeli town want a real-life laser cannon to protect them against Palestinian rocket attacks. And they're suing the national government, for failing to provide the ray gun defense.
The U.S.-Israeli Tactical High Energy Laser project was widely considered to be the most successful energy weapon ever built. But the toxic chemicals needed to generate THEL's megawatts of power made the thing a logistical nightmare. It was scrapped. Now, the residents of Sderot want it back. And they're taking Prime Minister Ehud Olmert to court to make it happen."
The town that is. It would be cheaper for the Israeli gov't to bulldoze the town. The technology is proven, they have the means, and the results guaranteed.
Israelis sue government?

Today, while driving through town, I wound up behind a minivan that had a big sticker on the back. The sticker had an Israeli flag in the middle of it, and under it the quotation from the book of Genesis that reads "I will bless those who bless thee."
I would like to take this time to list my own reasons for thanking and blessing Israel, our lone ally in the Middle East, for everything she has done for us, since I am quite sure most Americans are unaware of just what kind of friend she has been to us.
For extorting from me and my fellow Americans $4,000,000,000.00 a year for the last 4 decades, we bless thee.
For taking our most sophisticated weapons technology and stealing it for yourself without paying the American patent holders, we bless thee.
For taking that high-tech military technology and selling it to our enemies, such as the Russians and Chinese, thus further endangering us, we bless thee.
For using that weaponry in a sustained attack against a United States ship, the USS Liberty, in an attempt to sink her, thus preventing US servicemen from revealing to the rest of the world information concerning the war crimes they witnessed you commit against Egyptian soldiers in the Sinai Desert during the Six Day War, as well as for the purposes of dragging the US into yet another one of your murderous adventures, we bless thee.
For killing 35 and wounding 170 American sailors aboard the USS Liberty, we bless thee.
For bribing the United States government into covering it up, preventing any justice from being done for the benefit of the families of the lost sailors - as well as the American People, we bless thee.
For sending your agents into Egypt and blowing up American buildings for the purpose of blaming the Arabs in an event known as the Lavon Affair, we bless thee.
For sending your agents into Libya during the Reagan administration, and broadcasting radio messages in Arabic that were designed to sound like "terrorist cell planning" so that the US would initiate military strikes against Khadafi in an event known as Operation Trojan Horse, we bless thee.
For withholding information from us concerning the planned attacks against the US Marine barracks in Lebanon, attacks you knew about through your moles in the Islamic world and about which you deliberately refused to warn us in order to further your interests against the Arabs, we bless thee.
For employing Jonathon Pollard, an American serviceman paid to spy for Israel in order to steal even more of our National Security secrets for your parasitic purposes, we bless thee.
For blackmailing President Clinton through one of your sayanim, Monica Lewinsky, in order to prevent a coherent peace program from being pushed forward between yourself and the Palestinian people whom you have brutalized and murdered for the last 50 years, we bless thee.
For breaking every agreement you have made with your Arab neighbors, stealing their land, displacing, murdering, and treating them like the animals you see them as, we bless thee.
For using your agents within the first Bush administration to involve us in the first Gulf War, causing the deaths of American men and women, and exposing our servicemen to whatever bioweapons were and are responsible which have led to Gulf War Syndrome, we bless thee.
For your role in the September 11 attacks in this country, and for blackmailing and bribing the US government into deporting back to Israel the 100 or more intelligence agents that were arrested after the attacks, we bless thee.
For suppressing the information from the American people of your involvement in the September 11 attacks and sending us in the wrong direction in search of answers, we bless thee.
For using one of your agents in the US Army Weapons Lab to steal anthrax and distribute it into our mail system, terrorizing US citizens and killing several in order to blame the Arabs, we bless thee.
For using your agents in the US Government, namely, Rumsfeld, Wolfow
Fucking hypocrite. Took you a good half dozen words to admit you were talking utter shit.
The Palestinians have never wanted peace with Israel as evidenced by Arafat's rejection of Ehud Barak's offer of land for Palestinian statehood in 2000 and then no Palestinian counteroffer.
Unfortunately, the militant Palestinians want something that will not happen - the Jews to either leave or be wiped out. Thus, there is no solution.
"Do you suggest that Israel invade and take more territory to solve this problem?"
Yes, actually. For any Israeli killed by a rocket fired from Gaza they should annex 1 hectare (or some other suitable amount) of Gaza into Israel proper. Move the fences and all. Keep repeating it until the Palestinians figure it out and stop. Or until they drown, or until they end up in Egypt, depending on which fence you move.
I was in grad school with a Palestinian. He was not stupid. I'm sure there are lots more who are not stupid. The '67 war is over. They lost. It's time to deal with it.
The Sudeten Germans got evicted from Czechoslovakia when Germany lost even though they had been there for generations. They are not shooting rockets across the border from East Germany.
And certainly complaining to a Jew about being booted out of your homeland is a lost cause. At least for the first 2000 years.
"Full civil rights?"
You are a fucking idiot.
The Israelis have tried on numerous occasions to make peace. They gave them back a shitload of land in hopes of coming to some reasonable compromise. The Palestinians decided that launching rockets from their new land at the Israelis was a fine thing. We (the U.S. and Europe) have poured billions of dollars into the hands of the Palestinians. Notice any schools, factories, hospitals, or the most basic infrastructure? Of course not. The money was siphoned into private bank accounts or used to buy more rockets to lob at the Israelis. Fuck the Palestinians. They don't want peace. They only wish to kill more Jews, no matter what the cost.

There is no such thing as a civilian in Israel. They are all soldiers after the age of 16.
However, the lesson of the Holocaust is that Jews are not simply going to die this time.
The Arabs don't quite seem to get that.
The "Arabs" got the lesson that "if you bomb enough people, you get your country" directly from the creation of Israel.
Israelis OTOH don't seem to get that killing more and more Palestinian civilians doesn't make the terrorists go away.

And then it turns out his land deed encompassed your garage in the first place and you've been the unknowing asshole the whole damn time.
I seem to recall it was an Israeli Arab living in Jerusalem, and not a Palestinian terrorist, that was responsible for that shooting... but, I'm not surprised by such confusion from a zionist apologist.
