*SIGH* And they do it using honey (for the homemade Qassam rockets' fuel), too. In those relatively distant days (when Nasser was President of Egypt), even Egyptian rocket engineers--while they were developing V-2 derived [although they looked different] liquid propellant ballistic missiles to use on you-know-who [to quote the Tom Lehrer song] next door--were also launching instrumented payloads on them. If one were to add up all of the newton-seconds of total impulse that have been expended (and stored for future use) to kill people over there, Israel's irrationally-hostile neighbors could probably have built their own "Jew-free paradise" O'Neill-type space colonies by now... :-) / :-(
