It seems to me that Israel’s new “Iron Dome” short-range rocket interceptor will have the same problem that the American Patriot system does.
It nails the approaching rocket, true, and that’s impressive. But the explosion scatters fragments of the interceptor and the incoming rocket all over the place, some big enough to cause serious damage to people and other living things.
If they scatter on Gaza, from whence the rockets come, that’s one thing. If they scatter on the Israeli town that’s the target, or points in between, well…
THE TEXAS SCRIBBLER 
Good point that. I shall ask around about the meeting area.
Another aspect to it is the expense. The interceptors cost a lot more than the rockets, making it conceivable that with enough Kassams the rocketeers could bankrupt Iron Dome in a hurry.
