Israel's Scud Killer: Shot Heard Around the World
(Ha'aretz) Bradley Burston - Defense commentator Ze'ev Schiff says the successful test of the Arrow, which for the first time successfully intercepted a Scud missile in flight, sent "a very significant signal, saying that the U.S. and Israel are standing together on an issue of great importance....and this strengthens Israel's deterrent capability." Syrians also privately worry that "if Israel can intercept a Scud at this range, a Syrian missile with a chemical warhead could explode over the heads of the Syrians themselves," Schiff added.
