The system, which is designed to protect against incoming short-range weapons, stopping them from reaching their intended targets, was seen lighting up Tel Aviv’s sky last night with its so called “interceptor missiles” appearing to loop in the sky and land in Tel Aviv, damaging local property. There were no reports of fatalities as a result of the malfunction.

I honestly can’t decide if I should laugh at this or not. So far we’ve established that the neocolony has sterilized African Jews, lets thousands of Shoah victims waste away in poverty, lets its military commit false flag attacks on Jews, is willing to sacrifice Jewish hostages, has declared open season on protestors, and now the Iron Dome accidentally(?) killing Jews is a serious possibility.

But by all means, Zionists, go ahead and tell me that your neocolony is necessary for Jewish safety. I am sure that you have a hell of a case on your hands. A hell of a case.

    The system is far more advanced than we gave it credit for, and realised the best way to stop attacks into Tel Aviv was to eliminate the settlers?

    Any chance it was hacked?

      It’s probably not as good as advertised. Israel needs to project an image of invincibility, because if the settlers start to feel unsafe they will go back to their home countries.

        it’s way less embarrassing to say they were hacked than to admit incompetence.

          Depends on how they got hacked.

          “We had an email from special@promotion.ir offering a massive discount on bulk purchases of the colour swatches from that Family Guy meme and we thought those would be pretty useful for processing queues at checkpoints, so we opened the example.exe attachment.”

          No, it’s way worse, because that means admitting Iran can control their iron dome and shut it down when coordinating attacks. As opposed to random malfunctions

    Could be aging or defective missiles.

    How are they stored? How old are they? Is there corrective or preventative maintenence for these missiles? What is the failure rate over the lifetime of the munitions? How many have failed so far and are they in acceptable limits proposed by the manufacturer? Are we seeing a rate of failure higher than average? Is the launcher itself defective in some way as to damage the missile, impacting its ability to fly? Missile software issues? What type of seeker does it use, and can that be either jammed or is it defective?

    Hacking a missile system sounds interesting and exciting and dramatic, but a system like this is probably not hooked up to any kind of network requiring internet access. Jamming is more likely, but doesn’t make a whole lot of sense for individual missiles in a salvo to fail to jamming. It’s my opinion that it’s probably just old missiles failing as they age.

    I believe we are seeing more failures simply because they are firing more missiles, and I believe we will continue to see these catastrophic* failures as the war goes on.

    *catastrophic in the sense that any missile that flies back into the area it is launched from is the exact opposite outcome you’d expect from any missile system.

      Oh no, not the most realistic possibility. How could you!!

      Yea, hacking a system to only to redirect one missle slightly off target sounds wierd. A hacker would probably want to either completely disable the Iron Dome, cause all of the missles to detonate at point of origin to scuttle their ability to use them without rebuilding the entire infrastructure, or direct them to more relevant targets to undermine the IDF.
