Electronic Intifada's Ali Abunimah shows his ignorance |
What Ali describes as "teaching hate and violence" at Israel Science Day in Rabin Square is in reality the Arrow Weapon System - Israel's national missile defense system. The Arrow defense system is designed to track and disable into missiles above the earth's atmosphere, high enough to disable chemical, biological or nuclear warheads safely. Arrow is designed to save lives, Ali. You run a website about the Middle East. Its time to get up to speed on some basic facts.
If Ali Abunimah really cared about teaching "hate and violence", you'd think he'd have said something about the latest public art in Gaza.
Its a life-size model of a large M75 rocket with a range of up to 75 miles. These rockets were launched at Tel Aviv and Jerusalem during Operation Pillar of Defense in November 2012.

The words of peace that accompanied this fine bit of Palestinians public art:
“Hamas managed to take the
battle to the heart of the Zionist entity (Israel) after developing its
rocket system, succeeding where many Arab armies had failed.”
Or how about images of little Arab kids dressed up in suicide vests?
