#1 Pity about the Israeli soldier being injured; I hope he's fine.

I couldn't care less about the Paleos.

#4 Hopefully they set up a counterbattery network that can either pre-emptively take down missile and mortars being set up before firing, preferably, or return fire even before splash.

The preemptive counterbattery fire would almost have to be done with 24/7 blimp reconnaisance. The blimp wouldn't even need to be manned, only tethered.

#5 Heh, Moose - it would have to be tethered damned high, lol.

But what prompted me to post was the instant visual of the rain of lead from all the fire that would be directed at the blimp, lol. It would be a whole new type of flypaper if they had one of the instant triangulation systems for small arms fire. :-)

#6 blimp reconaissance required, Moose? IIRC that's BS - radar's all we've got in theater and it works..... bet the Israelis can do the same
