Kill Zone, not the game type the REAL type

I was reading http://www.carigamers.com/cms/forums/index.php/topic,19053.0/topicseen.html when I realized that the linked article mentioned an 'Israeli Auto Kill Zone'. If a title like THAT does not set off alarms in your head, you NEED to move from wherever you're living and seek psychological help IMMEDIATELY OR you need to get your senses and hormone levels checked.
So what does the term 'AUTO KILL ZONE' conjure up? well those who are familiar with the PS3 game of name fame, well I have no idea on that front as i've never played it, but if violence and bloodshed come to mind, then you're on the right track. Let me stop beating around the bush and quote the article:

Israeli “Auto Kill Zone” Towers Locked and Loaded

    * By Noah Shachtman Email Author

On the U.S.-Mexico border, the American government has been trying, with limited success, to set up a string of sensor-laden sentry towers, which would watch out for illicit incursions. In Israel, they’ve got their own set of border towers. But the Sabras’ model comes with automatic guns, operated from afar.

The Sentry Tech towers are basically remote weapons stations, stuck on stop of silos. "As suspected hostile targets are detected and within range of Sentry-Tech positions, the weapons are slewing toward the designated target," David Eshel describes over at Ares. "As multiple stations can be operated by a single operator, one or more units can be used to engage the target, following identification and verification by the commander."

We flagged the towers last year, as the Israeli Defense Forces were setting up the systems, designed to create 1500-meter deep "automated kill zones" along the Gaza border.

"Each unit mounts a 7.62 or 0.5" machine gun, shielded from enemy fire and the elements by an environmentally protective bulletproof canopy," Eshel explains. "In addition to the use of direct fire machine guns, observers can also employ precision guided missiles, such as Spike LR optically guided missiles and Lahat laser guided weapons."

I just had to go WTMC, when I read this... they are using automated weapons to 'protect' the gaza border? I mean how dangerous are the Palestinians anyway? do they have WMD? or large armaments? or numerous surface to air missiles and laser guided bombardments? do they have armoured vehicles and advanced firearms? are they even REMOTELY CAPABLE to EQUALLING the CARNAGE that Israel is able to unlease at WILL?

Clearly those 'arabs' are SO dangerous that they NEED to implement something like this.... my question is, suppose during an israeli bombardment, ppl go FLEEING 'close' to the border what happens to the innocents?

And we all know that ppl don't lose limbs and lives because of said mines, why should we even think more innocents will die with this?

Well I would think that they wouldn't be on Kill on sight all the time...only in certain circumstances. They could just set-off an alarm I would think. But they also serve as a Military defense post against any military force... O_o...

I'm willing to bet money that ppl will die unnecessarily. That aside, couldn't they have come up with less LETHAL methods? They have HOMEMADE vomit inducing guns and Israel is a HUB for technological and military breakthroughs, you mean HONESTLY in all their VAST knowledge they couldn't think of ANYTHING else?

Can't Imagine how scary that will be. Your walking along the dirt track with you donkey and food stuff, then all of a sudden you hear this winding sound then BAMM! you're dead.....

yea really what threat could the Palestinians possibly pose .... they have no weaponry or money even close to what the Israelis have (thanks US u bunch of D!cks - dating back before there was a Kashmir- a whole other story) anyway the Israelis have proven time and again they have no regard for Palestinian life maybe life i general i shudder to think if this type of extremist savagery was emulated somewhere else.....i mean if they just gtfo out Gaza an just left the ppl be.... it would be a much better place

Guys, come on, the Palestinians do possess armaments dangerous enough to pose a threat, had this NOT been the case the Israelite military would have killed them off by now and the Gaza conflict would have been over, because that is the intention of both sides.

If Patos told you they were going to move 20 ppl into YOUR BEDROOM and there wasn't anything you could do about it, i'm sure you'd have problems sleeping in your OWN bed, even IF say that bed was bought by ur parents and so u sleep in it all it's life but can't claim you bought it.

Sure the Palestines could hurt a few DOZEN ppl if they TRIED TO THEIR ABSOLUTE BEST, THAT is in and of itself a GREAT reason to continue to oppress and use overwhelming POWER to SLOWLY kill out ppl that are different colour and belief than you are on some self righteous indignation that you were given land by God.
