The rockets don't have to be as big as the V2 bec. the rockets don't have to fly as far (across the english channel.)

Also, the Germans were famous for their "big guns". They wasted a lot of resources on their cannons/rockets, when they should have been developing low-cost and easily-assembled battle rifles (Like the AK-47).

Hamas is making a really fantastic tactical move by devoting resources to these rockets. The rockets are up to 6 feet long and made of sheet metal. Even if the rockets don't explode, they can total a car or traumatize an entire generation.

I don't endorse such evil, but the tactics are brilliant.

Yes! It isn't just the consumer that is "through with it." Many businesses I work with will go to great lengths to GET RID of computers. They just plan a business model that makes computers a minor detail, unlike in the past, where computers in the office were the wave of the future!

Think of it this way: If all the desktop computers on earth stopped working, it would be like 1982! Which is just fine.

I learned as a child, "Don't grow the hay to feed the sheep the coyotes eat." Technology is a self-fulfilling business model that is no longer self-fulling.
