About Me
- Name: Carl in Jerusalem
- Location: Jerusalem, Israel
I am an Orthodox Jew - some would even call me 'ultra-Orthodox.' Born in Boston, I was a corporate and securities attorney in New York City for seven years before making aliya to Israel in 1991 (I don't look it but I really am that old :-). I have been happily married to the same woman for thirty-five years, and we have eight children (bli ayin hara) ranging in age from 13 to 33 years and nine grandchildren. Four of our children are married! Before I started blogging I was a heavy contributor on a number of email lists and ran an email list called the Matzav from 2000-2004. You can contact me at: IsraelMatzav at gmail dot com

That's only partially true. If it were completely accurate then the same case could be made for doing away with drones and precision weapons and just wheel out the B-52's and napalm everyone from one end to the other. Which they're clearly not doing. A more crucial fact is that most countries don't give care what happens to their own civilians and if they get blown up by mortars and artillery rockets, then so what.
One country that IS interested in Iron Dome is South Korea, many ways confronted with the same kind of mass murdering insane low tech opponent, North Korea. Not even communist China is prepared to lose their new economic infrastructure in a futile fight with Taiwan so they're not going to randomly bombard them for political purposes.
If I were Cyprus though, I'd keep a weather eye out for Turkish 'activists' to start the same kind of thing from the north.
