I am puzzled at this point. Cannot the IDF locate or triangulate the launch sites for these rocket barrages, and hit them with precision munitions, artillery, or helicopter gunships? I can understand the difficulty in locating and counter attacking the smaller weapons used up until now. The "launch and run" ability of Hezbolla terrorists with those hand carried small artillery rockets like the Katusha and smaller weapons can be fired, and the terrorists can split, but the Hezbolla are now using their bigger Iranian and Chinese supplied "long range" weapons. Don't these show up on radar, and haven't the Israeli's targeted the launchers (trucks, vehicles, etc.)

hezbollah pulls them out of the garage of a private house, or a warehouse someplace - launches them, then runs away. its not like they are all lined up at some missile base, waiting to be launched.
