As cool as this footage is, for me it brought home the reality of living with this threat year after year. Now I get why they call it ‘terrorism’. There is nothing military or warrior like about lobbing death filled missiles at people.
Hat tip to a reader of vlad and this blog where it was found

The big problem here is the cost of the anti-missile missile and the cost of the terror missile, the terrorist support system will continue to provide cheap terror missiles and the Israelis will have to respond with expensive counter missiles. What the Israelis need is the anti-missile airborne laser that the US developed but Congress wouldn’t buy.
