Here sometimes some people do a costume party but that's it, no one really goes asking for candy or shit, ot well some do it but it is such an insignificant amount of people and I don't really know who the hell buys candies to give them.

I have just a tiny tensy teeny bit of suspicion that this is sarcasm.

They need some distance in order to activate, and also multiple shots can override the system. The one who placed the grenade wouldn't activate because the heat isn't present until there is an explosion, the heat the system detects is the one used from the propulsion of the rocket. Still, again it raises the question of how efective it is since most attacks in urban guerrilla will be carried out in short distances.

Well, the Trophy system has some thermal detector so it traces where the projectile is coming and it basically shoots something similar to shotgun shells if I'm not mistaken, so the driver doesn't really have to see where it's coming from. I assume it's just a sunken cost fallacy where they have spent a lot of money into the system so they now have to use it even if it's not reasonable to do so.

Infantry cannot support tanks because they use the Trophy system, if they would receive an attack their own tanks would kill their men because of how the system works.

Probably to make Syria look bad? Jordan is a US puppet.

I've mentioned this was going to happen, the same thing happenes in 2012 and since then they've amassed a bigger stockpile but at the same time never Hamas has attacked as this time so the stockpile lasted longer but still not enough.

According to Ronen Bergman, in 2012, during Operation Pillar of Defense, Israel agreed to an early cease-fire "for a reason that has remained a closely guarded secret: The Iron Dome anti-missile defense system... had run out of ammunition." Bergman says that as a result of the experience, Israel had tried to prepare larger stocks of interceptors for future rounds of fighting.

Whoa, so fucking cool, and a lot of games and a lot of them are really cool, I wish it wasn't in USD or that I'd get a way to circumvent the payment so that I don't get charged extra.

Let's hope Hezbollah officially joins the war now.

Yes, you need to have a visa for Israel and another visa for the rest of West Asia.

If you visited Israel and have that in your passport you cannot visit a lot of other countries, and now this, how many countries they want to isolate themselves from?
