Trophy Anti-missile system in Israel
JERUSALEM — A new Israeli weapons system knocked down a Palestinian anti-tank rocket in its first combat test Tuesday, the military said, showing off technology that could protect the heavy vehicles that have been the mainstay of the world’s ground forces for decades.
Israel: new weapon downed Gaza anti-tank rocket
Palestinian militants said they fired a rocket-propelled grenade at an Israeli tank as it patrolled near the Gaza-Israel border, a frequent occurrence.
This time, the “Trophy” system sensed the incoming rocket and fired its own projectile, blowing it up away from the tank, the military said.
BOOYAHHH! 
Trophy is thought to be the only active defense system of its kind in the world.
As it should be.
NO need to share yer toys ISRAEL.
And while the brainless masses are busy fallin all over themselves heaping praise on Hussein Obama and his fellow weak kneed Western leaders for their powerlessness, inaction, and blind compliance with liberal Multi culti, “DON’T INSULT IZLAM” actions…Israel is gettin it done.
Western modern day leaders? Ha. 
Naw. No one will dare interfere with what is essentially Libyan carnage.
No one dares insinuate that Egypt will NEVER be anything that resembles a “democracy”.
That Muzlim, Arab, rabid anti semites are not exactly exhibiting the omnipresent desire for “global peace” that the hippie Libs claim they are...Shhhhhhhhhh.
Have we unleashed one shred of TRUE military might since THIS?
Have we deported potential terrorists and their hateful, anti-semitic ilk?
Have we “patted down” any Muzlims at airports yet..or is that still on the “It’s too insulting to Izlam list”?
The frailty, timidity, and weakness of our so called “Leaders” is nothing short of embarassing.
Good on you ISRAEL.
Bomb those ahem..”militants” who blow up Americans in financial buildings, and babies in Israeli pizza shops and kindergarden playgrounds back to Never Never land.
NEVER FORGET.
Israel Sbarro victims:
Israel embodies democracy, human rights, and innovation, despite its neighborhood and despicable “neighbors.”
God bless America and Israel sweet friends…………….mightily.

That weapon system kicks. Strikes me as being superior to the reactive armor that we use. At the same time, expect terrorists to fire multiple missiles or rpg’s in order to give it more targets than it can engage at one time. RPG’s are cheap, tanks are expensive, and their crews are priceless.

My pastor visited Israel again recently. He said there were tons of people there wearing T-shirts with the Israeli flag and the words “Don’t worry, America. We got your back.”

Great post Woman – Israel always getsRdone. Great description of our “president” and his world class whimpy policies. We have one true Democratic ally in the Middle East and our Government spits on them. Go figure. I think Israel knows that if anyone is going to step up and face the enemy….it’s not our Government, so they have, they do and they will!

Hopefully in 2012 we’ll be rid of this cabal of Marxists that currently inhabit Washington. Until then, I’m afraid the Israelis are going to have to go it alone.

If the birth rates continue to be as disproportionate as they have been, the Israeli flag may end up looking like that.

We must let those who do not fear us watch us dip our bullets in pigs blood.

Good for Israel! Angel, did you hear Harvey Weinstein’s distributing some film that’s very pro Palestinian? He says it’s because ‘the full story of the struggles should be known…I’m very proud to be doing this’.. A ‘trailer’ that Piers MOrgan showed last night showed a young Israeli man going into a Palestinians home and arresting his daughter. The tag line audio said “the arrest was for absolutely NO REASON”
I couldn’t help but wonder how many pro-Israeli films there are that WEINSTEIN feels the REAL STORY needs to be known…………….ANY? GRRRRR

Pardon my confusion..
If the neighboring Arab countries are so anxious for peace..
why exactly would Israel need such advanced defensive military equipment?????????????????????????????????
Duhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh?????
Good morning, that was an interesting dream…

Good for Israel. I don’t understand why the Trophy has a ‘V’ on the side. Let’s hope it stands for Victory.
March 2nd, 2011 at 3:32 pm
Yeah, for Israel, Angel. They know how to get things done.
God Bless them and keep us all safe.

Go Israel!
I once worked on the Arrow, Israel’s ABM system. Israel has some of the best engineers and computer programmers in the world.

The need for Israel to develop advanced weaponry is very real. Israel finds herself surrounded by enemies that would like nothing more to destroy her by any means necessary. The blood libel, lies, propaganda, incoherent rants, venom, and incessant attacks of her enemies occur daily, but Israel does not change. She remains committed to being human. She shows compassion to her enemies and tends their wounds ahead of her own soldiers when necessary. The difference between the Arab and Israeli is clear for all to see, if you will only look. Excellent article once again, Angel.

Thank G-d Israel’s commerce and research is NOT in the hands of its politicians.
