Blowing Away Palestinians with Remote Control Guns
By Haitham Sabbah • Dec 5th, 2008 at 9:38 • Category: Israel, Newswire, Palestine, VideoThis video from Ha'aretz shows the Israeli terrorist females in action using latest Israeli war crime weapons against Gazans - "The Seer Shoots:"
The Israel Defense Forces has found a way to target Gaza Strip terrorists from kilometers away, with just three pushes of a button.
It may look like a video game, but it's actually a new system called "The Seer Shoots," which has entered operation in recent days on the Gaza Strip border.
Several of these domes were recently installed along the Israel-Gaza border. But you won't find the shooter inside, but rather in a virtual battleground, operating a heavy machine gun from a kilometer away.
Three days ago, Israeli air strikes killed two teenage Palestinian boys, while Israel increases its criminal siege into the Gaza Strip.

the sofisticate armament for what? waitting for a stone……..? Amaising to see little girls in those games machines learning how to kill!!!!!!!!!!!!
What will they think of next…
"The Seer Shot" a nasty wee weapon system, being put in around the borders of Gaza,it involves the remote use of heavy machine guns, the shoot being in a virtual battle ground a kilometer away.One has to wonder how many innocents will be murdered with this weapon that turns war into a video game.What are the "morals/ethics" that surround a weapon such as this targeted at an innocent population.We know the Israelis are not capable of taking responsibility for the innocents the shoot under normal circumstances. But this, this abominable weapon,if you take away the risk to ones self, if you take away the smells, the noise, the sights of war…where is the responsibility.I know i have not used the right words here, I cannot find the right words to describe what I want to say.
Basically all that happens with sight or the mechanics of sight, is the following: light somehow comes off the person that you see? And it stimulates the retina. So light , , stimulates the retina, and when it stimulates the retina, this causes a type of chemical reaction. And this chemical reaction in the retina the optic nerve So it stimulates the optic nerve and that sends electrical impulses. So electrical impulses start going beep, beep, beep, beep beep, beep beep. These little electrical impulses start cruising into the brain stem. And then the electrical impulses go then back to the visual cortex, and then somehow back to the brain stem, somewhere. This is all that's known of the mechanics of sight, the question is where is the seer, where is the perceive of any given situation that may occur in Gaza.The point I am trying to make, the person operating "The Seer Shot" perceives a situation , it comes to the in the form of electrical impulses. This information or these electrical impulses are recieved in the persons brain, but whats the operator really,looking at ? From a kilometer away how is the Seer operator going to perceive any given situation? The Seer operator is sitting there, making observations, based on electrical impulses he/she receives to their brain.
The Seer operator receives the information just from their eyes. But wheres the rest of the sense that we use to make a moral or ethical judgment , the different senses: smelling, tasting, feeling, hearing, seeing. These senses all work like sight basically- an outside stimulus from the environment, stimulates the part of the body related to the particular sense and that send an electrical impulse into the brain. What I am trying to say here is, the seer operator will be operating with out all their senses, how then can the make a moral/ethical judgment on whether or not it the right situation to fire their weapon.How can they really tell the person they are targeting is a person with a weapon, it could be a journalist with a camera (I believe to this date the Israelis have already taken out 30 journalists through bad judgments in real life situations), it could be a child with a toy gun.How many innocents will the Israelis murder with this abominable new weapon????
What kind of nonsense is this? The controls makes this technology into a war game in a literal sense of the word…Why are women the ones shooting at militants? Don't they realize that the sheer shooter can and will malfunction and hit innoncent people and not harm the militants in anway? What kind of dangerous technology has Israel invented to be operated by women! That is a waste of tax payer money why can't diplomacy be used? Shame on the women for operating a weapon of mass destruction that not only kills the militants and terrorists but also ordinary people who are mistaken for terrorists. Do they not see the irony
in their work or that innoncent people might be harm or killed for their country's security with no regard shown because all of Gaza is labeled as a stronghold for Hamas? The technology could have been used for something better…Something that saves lives…
Since when has the word Jxdaism been stricken from the vocabulary? Would monsters be a suitable replacement?
Monsters
.
Shame on those who think that defending one's children, family, home, and homeland, makes freedom fighters terrorists!
Shame on the hypocritical humans who sits idly by, while genocide goes on in Palestine, yet they dare to attack Palestinians who dare to defend their children’s right to survive!!

It beggars belief that such a set-up could exist - but a few years ago Guantanamo would have been science fiction. If this is not a spoof, I'll bet it is being used like other weaponry in Palestine as a try-out before selling such technology to other countries, like for instance the UK, which has just introduced Tasers for half of its police force and already employs drone spy planes on its citizens.
@Janet -
Someone else may have to clean up the mess from there hard days work!!! but each squeeze of the trigger shall require a reckoning before God, Monsters don't have the dexterity and keen eye although the blatant disregard for life is the same!.
In order to have killing machines like these and so many others, it is necessary for those who profit from these weapons to ensure that they have an endless supply of 'enemies' . The heartless, cruel and constant Israeli oppression of the Palestinians is deliberately designed to ensure that there will be always be an endless supply of 'insurgents' , terrorists' , resisters, etc. to justify the production and deployment of these weapons. The People of Palestine, Iraq, Afghaninstan have been used as test subjects for the test and development of the latest developments of weapons and tactics of mass destruction, population control/urban warfare techniques.
Successful tests of these weapons prototypes result in lucrative cost-plus government contracts, with their associated graft, kick backs, payroll ghosts, cost overruns, payoffs to lobbyists, government officials and other 'gravy skimmings' off the top.
Those who make profit off the death, devastation and misery of others are the truly the enemies of all humanity.
Remote controlled weapons have been installed in the US at 'sensitive' locations to protect the facility from human wave assaults by terrorists, dissenters and others of the great unwashed.. This one was installed in 2006 or so.

I notice that an elementary school is within the range of this one…
Once, I had hope that the new millennium would be the dawn of a new age of humanity and not just a continuation of our barbaric past.
