U.S. Defense Secretary Leon Panetta said President Obama directed him to fill the Israeli request to fund a system that Panetta says has saved Israeli lives and can prevent an escalation of violence in the region.

In March, the Defense Department said the system was responsible for taking down 80% of several hundred rockets that were directed at Israel. 2012-05-18 00:00:00Full Article
