Palestine
A community for everything related to Palestine and the occupation currently underway by the occupying force known as Israel.
Anti-Zionism is not anti-Semitism. Existence is resistance for Palestinians.
Please refer to Israel as Occupied Palestine, or occupied territories. The IDF is a fascist and ethnonationalist occupying force. Israelis are settlers. We understand however that the imperial narrative (which tries to legitimise Israel) is internalised in the imperial core and slip-ups are naturally expected.
We always take the sides of Palestine and Palestinians and are unapologetic about it. Israel is an occupying power whose "defence force"'s (note the contradiction) sole purpose for existing is to push Palestinians out so they can resettle their rightful land. If you have anything positive to say about Israel we do not care.

Isn't that cheap actually? Patriot SAM is 4 mil a shot
It's still crazy nonetheless lol.
Yeah I don't mean to say it's cheap in the absolute sense, just relative to other anti air missiles. Even non-western missiles like S300 are 1 mil a missile
I might be misremembering, but doesn't the iron dome rely pretty heavily on volume of missiles being shot as a defensive response rather than precision accuracy? Meaning each missile might "only" be 80k but they are launching like a dozen of them?
80k is still hundreds of times more than the rockets Hamas is using anyway.
what the fuck? seriously?
