Scattered amidst an article on the Gaza Strip are plans for a new kind of border defense. The Israelis are apparently considering turning it into a giant video game, using remote control patrol cars and computerized observation posts that spot and kill attackers all on their own. They even pick out the best weapon to use. Maybe it’s just us, but this seems to be coming kinda close to Skynet territory. Sure, removing more people from harm’s way is a good thing but what about the first farmer who gets blown to bits when the computer thinks the goat he’s leading is a suicide bomb?

Sometimes i cant help but think that the Isreali's deserve the response they get from the palestinian side..The desperate palestinians are being forced more and more into a corner with no weapons,plains,or tanks to fight with..So they natural course for them is to send in suicide bombers.whereas the israeli's are constantly testing new and more sofisticated and deadlier weapons on the palestinians than before.

Sounds like some bizarre verson or Robot Wars... but using people rather than other robots as targets.

I know that suicide bombing is a barbaric and underhand way of killing and getting your message across, but I don't like this idea about how to combat it!
