Pataki: Who is asking you for all these idiotic verbiage? Hopeless son of an ape.

The low life nit-wit is even feeling funky! Ki la gbe, ti obo ti ya suure pon igi? Are you feeling your idiotic ego has been damaged when I told you not to make reference to me again when you are speaking your nit-wit language here? Sugomu!

Look here, I don't need your hopeless explanation. Go talk to your fellow apes in your nit-wit language.

Pataki: Nit-wit,

Don't you ever make reference to me again. You hopeless son of an ape!

Where you not the same nit-wit who some days ago was hopelessly ranting that we could not go to Bavara Munshyte ans defecate heavily on their useless hyena stadium?

kenkruse: Everton and Liverpool coming closely behind us.
How I wish Arsenal can win the UCL and displace spurs as usual.

nitlad: Even in your dreams, that will not happen!

Set difficulty to "very easy", on any football game and on any console/device/gadget of your choice, to be controlled by the best gamer among gayners, Ashenah still won't win the Champions League!

Hope for Gayners

dayokanu: In case you chav need to be educated. In 2001, we eliminated Man Utd, In 2010 we did same

FOr the GAYYners we we eliminated them in 2005 and 2013

We could have loved to play and eliminate Chavski but UEFA wont allow us to come meet you in Europa where you are battling with some Gypsies from Spartak Prague and Steau Buchuresti who are still battling starvation

dayokanu: I am Mohammed Ali you are David izonritei

[size=18pt]Israel's Iron Dome: Doubts Over Success Rate[/size]

Iron Dome was developed by an Israeli defence contractor but paid for mainly by the US

---

A leading US expert on missile defence has raised doubts about the efficacy of Israel's Iron Dome defence system.

Israeli officials say it hit some 84% of the targets engaged in last year's conflict with Hamas in Gaza.

But Professor Theodore Postol of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology suggests the defence system's success rate may have been "drastically lower".

The success of the Iron Dome was one of the most significant military aspects of Israel's brief campaign.

During this upsurge in fighting - dubbed Operation Pillar of Defence by the Israeli military - Israeli aircraft, drones and artillery bombarded Palestinian targets, while Palestinian groups fired over 1,400 rockets into Israel.

The Iron Dome missile defence system - built by the Israeli company, Rafael, but largely funded by the US - was rushed into service to defend against the Palestinian missile threat.


[size=18pt]Track-Record[/size]

Mr Postol has a track-record in debunking claims made for state-of-the-art missile defence systems.

In the wake of the 1991 Gulf War after which lavish praise was directedat the Patriot defensive system used by the Americans to defend against incoming Iraqi Scuds - Mr Postol showed that the Patriot's defenders - like the Patriot itself - were wide of the mark.

Patriot's success rate, he argued, could have been less than 10%, perhaps even zero. It may actually have hit nothing.

Mr Postol's criticism of the Iron Dome rests upon the nature of the warhead carried by the interceptor missile and the observed trajectories - or flight paths - of the launches he has studied from the November 2012 conflict.

In essence he believes that the only way Iron Dome can be sure of destroying the warhead of an incoming rocket is to hit it head on.

"If the interceptor is flying a crossing or diving trajectory compared to that of the incoming rocket," he told me, "then you are not going to destroy the warhead. Even hitting the incoming warhead side-on will probably not have sufficient energy to detonate it, he argues.


[size=18pt]'Deception'[/size]

Mr Postol says that while he cannot say what the performance of Iron Dome was in Operation Pillar of Defence, "all the available evidence unambiguously indicates a drastically lower level of performance than the 84% claimed by the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF)."

His view is that the successful hit rate on incoming warheads could be as low as 5-10%.

Mr Postol says that if the IDF wants to make such claims, then it should provide the data to back them up.

He acknowledges that it might have been "a reasonable strategy for Israel to claim that Iron Dome was working, as an excuse not to invadeGaza at an enormous cost to both sides."

But he argues that "continuing such a deception can only result in the misappropriation of limited defence assets".

Mr Postol says that "as an American supporter of Israel's right to self-defence", he does not feel comfortable seeing the US spend money on a weapon system "that hardly works".

The BBC tried to contact Rafael, Iron Dome's manufacturer for a response to Mr Postol's claims but was unable to get a reply.

Earlier an IDF spokesman quoted in the Haaretz newspaper, noted that"all interceptions by Iron Dome are investigated with cross-checking of system data, radar [data], reports from different sources on the ground and other information. The data of [Iron Dome] activity was arrived at based on this process."
