...involved in the nonstop Kassam rocket fire on Sderot.

I thought we had a truck mounted counter-battery laser undergoing field testing that is supposed to be deadly on these Katyusha barrage rockets, mortars and artillery shells in flight. It sounds like a golden opportunity to get some field testing done by our friends in the IDF.
