think about it like this.

Israel does NOT want to conquer the strip, both because its going to cost countless lives, and because having to actually RULE the strip would be a pain in the ass.

but one of these days, could be a decade from now, could be tomorrow, could be next century, one of those rockets is going to land in a preschool or a Kindergarten, and thats it.
full blow war, and complete conquest of the strip.

this system, might help prevent that from happening.

used to be people ran for Cover when they heard the sirens in Ashkelon.
now they pull their cellphones and upload the interception vids to Youtube.
its a hell of a moral boost.

The only way to avoid that is to get them to sue for peace.
and how would you do that ?
how do you propose we make water flow up hill ?

there are no settlements no checkpoints not a single israeli in Gaza (save for 1 prisoner).
not a single concession to be made, because they demand nothing.
do you not get that yet ?
