Iron Dome protects against artillery rockets , Patriot protects against Cruise Missiles and ICBMs , THAAD protects against ICBMs

Thank You, but my point was "is Iran going to fire artillery rockets at the GCC?" i.e. bring a knife to a gun fight?

Maybe not Iran, but Iran's proxies.

Bahrain and other members of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) are in negotiations to buy the Israeli-developed Iron Dome anti-missile system to defend against "a growing arsenal of Iranian missiles"

Gulf States Set To Buy Iron Dome System

Israel will sell weapons to GCC??? Without accepting each other???

If true then why the hell we are hostile against Israel when Arabs are singing songs with them???

 

[Serpentine]

So they want to buy Iron Dome to protect themselves against Iranian Grad missiles which have a range of 20 Km? Where would Iran want to hit with a Grad rocket?

 

[Saif al-Arab]

I doubt the authenticity of this news to be honest. Nor do I see the need for it at least not in the case of KSA.

Nothing compared to the relations Israel has with Turkey, Azerbaijan, Egypt and Jordan. Or even Morocco. Somehow people of the GCC are singled out due to envy and the misery of most Muslim nations and their populaces. That's the harsh reality.

The "Arab" Mullah's rulling Iran don't dare to attack the GCC as that would be suicide so don't get ahead of yourself.

Smaller countries possibly (UAE , Kuwait , Bahrain) but definitely not against Saudi Arabia , plus Iron Dome can be easily overwhelmed by a regular country

I don't know whether this report is credible or not.

Correction only small percent of Pakistanis, who are are living in LA LA land, rest of us know the reality of Gulf states.

There is another system: David's sling. I think that might be better suited for air-defence of small gulf countries. Iron Dome is just for unguided rockets .

 

[Total Destruction]

Doubt it , for Example UAE gone for Pantsir , likely other Gulf countries will go for it too.

Calm down Hasani, no one's attacking anyone, just responding to a stupid matter.

Off topic: what is general perception about Pakistan in Israeli public and ruling class??

 

[C130]

David's Sling makes more sense. Designed to destroy even Iskander.

It is hard to tell, because Pakistan is not in the news here, too far away, without any interaction.

An average Israeli Joe knows that Pakistan is a Muslim country without diplomatic relationship with Israel (i.e. dangerous place to visit, no Israeli tourists), and that Pakistan is far away and not involved in our difficult relationships with our neighbors (i.e. no danger of war, not interesting).
