#Israel #IronDome #Defense
I need an iron dome to protect me from the idiots I manage at work.
😂😂😂
Sounds like a great plan
@@betsyheimbuch 😁😁
I pray 🙏 we never see this in the skies of America!
Never happen, but if china ever decides that’s it,it’s all over for USA Germany France uk etc
We probably have a legit alien level force field 🇺🇸👽
99% this will never happen to the USA, because we are geologically protected by two great oceans and our neighbors are not military strong as the USA. Unless other nations has developed some great armada of ships, submarines, and airplanes that can carry weapons passes USA coastal defense then this might happen. 1% it might happen, because the spy balloon did made it through and float around.
The way America stick their hands in everything it want be long..just a matter of time..👍
"But the Iron Dome isn't really a dome"? For real? I thought it was a gigantic dome made of iron that pops out of the ground and covers the city during an air raid. A 007 movie kind of thing. Thanks for the clarification.
Me to. I thought like a giant dome.
😂😂😂 I thought that was a invisible cover over the state of Israel
You People are funny😂👏🏻
same concept
Just put one of those geodesic domes over Israel. There were plans to put one over Manhattan once.
We Americans just don’t know how good we got it
right I'd still live here than most other countries.
So good we spend Billions a year protecting a country because of the bible.
Landor, ya, and look how blessed we are, example, our economy has not totally collapsed like it could.
I've been to war for this county on five deployments getting shot at, blown up, and dodging mortars and rockets for nearly 20 years from Islamic terrorists. I know exactly how good I have it.
@@landor7610best comment ever
Help everyone except the people of this country , USA
If Israel is a rich country why do we pay for the iron dome
Because several rich countries (who also want us dead) are funding the attacks on it.
Because the US wanted to co-develop the technology, as the US could not on its own.
The missiles are made in the US by Raytheon. The Marines just purchased two batteries.
Yeah why we sending them 3 billion ANNUALLY????
@@princememphis7726Zionist for life boys
@@princememphis7726to keep a controlling presence in the middle east
I think it's kinda cool that the computers in the control center calculate where the rocket is likely to land before shooting.
Those Israelis really thought of everything. I guess that's the idea, no use wasting a $40k missile for a lawn dart that'll end up landing in a disused cow pasture.
Yes, they even thought of the US picking up the tab!!
@@will5989The best money our government spends, I assure you.
@@genghis_connie Thank you, you’ve helped make my point. “Israel is not a poor state”, but, The United States has given Israel more aid than any other nation since World War II, granting it more than $260 billion. Oct. 10, 2023, at 3:48 p.m.
I wonder how much Steven Spielberg chipped in? 🤑
@@will5989gee I wonder why...
3 things: 1. In the beginning of the video, the rocket that’s turning in the sky is the iron dome. Hamas rockets are unguided and fly straight.
2. The way it intercepts the rocket is by exploding right next to it.
3. It’s estimated that 25% of rockets fired from Gaza either misfire or fall short into Gaza. Any casualties and damages are blamed on Israel
its like beautiful fireworks
Absolutely genius ❤🙏
Just goes to show what we can achieve when we work together...
Fantastic report, Molly Hunter. Thank you!
😂 don't
@@HandsomeBastard why not?
War is big business
Brilliant and fascinating!
That is very useful.
Sending Billions. When our own infrastructure is crumbling
Diffetent budgets.
Interesting information.
$5 billion why?
Because our congress is bought and evangelicals are morons
How sad they have had to deal with this for years.
Years? Been going on for centuries. Not just there, other parts of the world as well. I've travelled to 42 countries and every state and territory and Americans are the fattest, laziest, greediest most entitled people Ive ever met. Most live in some protective bubble like mindless sheep with no real perspective of how the rest of humanity really is.
Choose life, not death. Let there be PEACE in the world. PEACE.
They say they are Abraham''s children. Abraham chose PEACE, and said to Lot let there be no strive between you and me, and let Lot take the best land. What a man of PEACE! Sadly now his descendents are killing each other. If they are really Abraham's children, then, they should also be at PEACE with each other. Loving one another, helping one another and celebrating with one another; perhaps as GOD blessed Abraham, other people may be blessed by GOD because of Abraham's children love for each other. Let the WORLD have PEACE.
Palestinians (including kids, women, and elderly) have been getting killed every day and for years . They were living peacefully in their country (which was called Palestinie and recently was named Israel) till the Israelis came and invaded their country and took it. What are they expected to do ? Just stand doing nothing? Of course, they would fight back.
The exact situation is now happening in Ukraine.
Unfortunately, the media wants us to believe what they want for political purposes.
God bless every soul that was taken innocently.
Are you freaking serious? Almost none of the rockets landed, but look at what Palestinians have been dealing with for years with no dome nor army and continuous violence from israelis. What you see here is only a simple retaloation compared to what israel has been doing to them, but somehow Israel always ends up playing the victim.
I think i gave a new version of this months ago... portable rocket interceptor ... ask the comic fam where's the vid ahhh ask lilith shes the boss lol
Just like "Missile Command" the Atari game from the 80's, but in real life. The comforts of modern technology! 😁👌
It doesn't work....
Isn't it weird that the US is in every other countrie's war ?
That system can only survive as long as its not vulnerable to emp weapons. Hopefully they have a counter measures for that.
Unfortunately Each missile must be a lot more expensive than the cheap rockets they intercept.
But they are saving lives
Iron dome? Stan Lee couldn't come up with a better name.
Just a name..... Doesn't actually s
Do anything......
Wow amazing
Each second = knock knock on me and my gets up
Very effective
The firmament?
😢🙏🏾
Israel has Iron dome and Hamas has Mosque dome.
Hey! I got the chrome dome and it better than Star wars defenses.
It’s like playing Battlestar Galactica… only it’s different.
So in plain words where going to become defenseless just great
What's difference between irondome and patriot which was use by americans during gulf was as a operation dessert shield turns dessert storm?
Just slid that Raytheon right by..
How come the incoming missiles are never visible?
the fuel has been used.
@@jrmardis there's gotta be at least one video where you can se one
@@isaaczaiek487 Why?
@jrmardis because allegedly they launch the missiles all the time. Since that is the case, there's gotta be more than enough evidence to convince a skeptic.
And if its hacked?
Why dies the presenter sound so cheery?
I have many many relatives who work at Raytheon in Massachusetts for many years
Shhh we don’t talk about those things if u don’t want to be a target for the craziness 🤷♀️
@@paisleydreamzz your right
Why does it deflect before exploding? A full U-turn then explode
How quickly we all forgot about Hawaii
How I don't have such to help and can't feed myself.
0:12 no way that's a bird
No money to be made if the missles are are not being used. Need to use them up like s disposable razor.
Why do you people share this type of information
From what I’ve seen, the missile defense systems belonging to various manufacturers all seem to exhibit their own flight trajectory(perhaps owing to their proprietary tracking system), so you could almost compare their flight path to a person’s signature.
This is obsurd if true. Iron dome is less genius if they are just using plug and play interceptors.
More than likely their flight trajectory based on the system they're intercepting.
@@carvalone3076Missiles change trajectory during flight ....
I'm scared need to stock up on can foods, stay strong
Kid like graphic. Perfect for me but the kid in me says to turn the launcher around.
More than 4000 rockets in a month?! 😱🤯
4,700 in the last few DAYS
There is no system. On earth to be able to stop the amount of rockets fired
Oooo my goood
Missile Command! 😅
but not all the time :(
I hear well cover your defence get your offence in order
Anyone remember scud busters?
Werent they using patriot batteries before this for the exact same purpose? I mean i get building their own system regardless.
Prep, folks. Prep. Its anout to kick off in a most spectacular way worldwide. Order of importance: Gins, ammo, food, medical supplies, body armor and protection, misc items like knives, scissors, rope, twine, tarps, and anything else. At least a two week supply.
Not very well apparently 🤯
Not at all apparently.....
95% success rate is nuts. But since there were 5000 missiles shot from Gaza this week, around 250 missiles weren't intercepted
Molly Hunter explains why just because it's called the "iron dome" it doesn't mean it's actually an iron dome ! Mind boggling report.🤯
So nice of president Biden to say he smssnsa blinksn irona wink blamm blam, pure generosity.
All these funds available for wars and other countries but NO HELP FOR OUR OWN PEOPLE??? WHAT ABOUT HAWAII???? WHAT ABOUT THE HOMELESS???? WHAT ABOUT THE VETS???? This is criminal.
I know they need help, but so do we!!
700 per FAMILY for thoses burned out of their homes in hawaii though.
if this AA-System can intercept hypersonic cruise and ballistic missiles it extremely needed in Ukraine.
Split it
I don't understand why anyone would willingly live anywhere that needed an 'iron dome' to keep themselves from being blown to bits.
They can't live anywhere else due to money, pride, and getting killed for thier reilgon in a neighboring country
The question is, why didn't "iron dome" work against the first wave of missiles fired from Gaza? Really, if anyone knows, why?
Because the people that own everything (Rothschilds) told the Israeli Military to stand down. They want conflict everywhere so they can justify their New World Order.
This is some 'Star Wars' ish.
God bless technology for the good of all the worlds peoples.
Let’s make sure America doesn’t go homeless
2.5B $??? Seriously! 😡 like they don't have anywhere else to put money towards...
How about saving lives here in US. We got plenty of that...! Start with economy...
You dont want to pay taxes, afraid of socialism, liberalism what do you expect? All these complaints start look like a russian bot farm
Can we have an iron dome??👀
We already do.
It's called SkyHunter
We got the research and own the tech and now it is time to stop spending on this
Not that I don't sympathize with them but how about you help us here at home first
They’re grown let them pay for there own defense, there’s so much that the US people need that money for… and are we not in debt?
Yet we don't see a single iron dome rocket flying or it's trail?.. something definitely fishy about this whole thing
I thought it was the trails we saw, that the hamas rocket were on their end stage
Best money ever spent
Smart ❤❤❤❤
Israel wasn't a country before 1948. They took over the land and built a country in 1948. This is history.
Whatever. If 4billion dollars a year can't protect a nuclear power with a robust air force from Hamas, who's to say throwing more money at them will change anything?
It didn't
Oooooh rockets now have are you gonna bring those gas and grocery prices down either one will get you.
We've given Ukraine over 200 billion in less than 5 years. That's more than we given Israel in the past 30..
Some of the missile launchers look like PAC2 missile systems. In fact some of this video showed PATRIOT launchers. I thought it was different tech? But Raytheon seems to be involved and they make our mid range systems as well. Interesting…
You mean 2PAC?
If they have that IMAGINE WHAT WE HAVE! 💪🏾💪🏾
We have that. We bought them from Israel
@@corndawg-91We bought them for Israel. Get it right.
Congratulations. We get a potato for president.
You have nothing just like them......
It's American technology... why can't America defend It's own border? 😳
No it's not, it's an Israeli invention and they are just starting to sell it to other countries, us included
@@BarefootDaniwait so we give them money to build a commercial product so they can sell it? So how about the US stops funding them?
Why are we sending BILLIONS to Israel when we have so many people going hungry here?
Nothing can stop your falling and destruction.
Why are we not selling it to them they have the money?
😢🙏
biden got to make sure that amereica is good
Wow this is 90% one sided
While the veterans suffer homelessness.
they copied Fortnite with the iron dome
Ukraine should have the iron dome too!!
How did isreal intelligence not know
$3.3 billion annual aid to Israel? Why? We have problems of our own. Who sends the US money when we need it? Smh
What about all the debris that comes crashing down and potentially hitting, injuring, and killing people?
Ima go on a limb and say there'd be less casualties from that than rather say a missile hitting its target..
@@SilentxKillerx5Obviously... but I'm just curious if the system has a way to take out the attacking missile at "optimum" time and location so as to either eliminate or minimize potential damage to infrastructure or humans.
@@user-ld6wo4rv8h probably not, the chances of anything hitting anyone would be super slim
Most of it turns to dust
When thousands of planes a day flush a toilet. Do you get hit with urine or fecal matter?
So why isn't it stopping all the missiles they're sending now?
Cuz Israel started this. Just let that sink in
It's impossible to shoot down missiles..... Never going to happen.....
95% success rate means that out of the 5000 missiles sent from Gaza, about 250 do hit
I was looking for this question and the reply too. Sheesh... that's ridiculous. So the enemy is just brute forcing their way with missiles... a sort of "spray-n-pray" attack, eh? I'm still impressed with that kind of success rate... 95%! wow
