      Based on just the headline, you're probably not wrong, but reading the article, you'll see that those are anti-ballistic missile missiles (which is to say, they are missiles used to shoot down other missiles).

      There's definitely something to be said about the U.S. support for Israel, but this feels like the most sane and agreeable area of support that could be provided.

        Hard disagree.

        Anti-missile systems increase the risk of war, because they allow countries like Israel to pretend their "Iron Dome" confers an immunity to reprisals and therefore be less likely to refrain from actions that would invite them.

      No, they should fire all their missile defense systems. Especially the expensive ones. Deplete them all! Raise the price of war!
