Truth is, if it can launch smoke gernades, it can launch frag gernades, and/or be retrofitted with guns. I'm sure that was just for demostrational purposes.
The design is cool though- kind of like a mini batmobile.
Adam, while this is engadget and not a forum to discuss middle east politics, I will say:
You're totally right, suicide bombings, mass shootings, public beheadings, education of hate, and all around preaching of violence is all cool. Chilling out in your living room makes you a 'real terrorist.' As you so eloquently put it.
Good job.
Now go learn some friggin israeli/ middle east history before spewing things out of your tuchus.
I'm gonna side with Adam on this. Israel isn't any better (or worse) than anyone else in the region. They are pretty much the bullies of the Middle East.
they are worse you can just search Palestine on youtube and watch all the videos of the horrible things that are happening to the Palestinians. Imagine someone coming to your city surrounding it with barriers and slowly bulldozing houses down one by one, I'm sure you would get pissed off and fight back.
Wow another wonderful tool of destruction for the Israelis to destroy innocent civilians with. I know that after WWII, it became taboo to say anything against the Jews, but Israel has killed more innocent people than any other group in recent history. Their occupation of Palestine is a genocide, and has been for decades. Read a little on wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_Israeli-Palestinian_conflict Israel continues to give the finger to any action taken by the UN, because they have the only support that matters: the US's.
@Zoli: Yea, I'll give them that they're more "modern", but that doesn't mean they haven't massacred, what, a million people maybe? We'll never know, because they don't allow third parties to come in and watch the killing or count the bodies. Remember Jenin? The Sabra and Shatila massacre? Of course not, because to you everything Israel does is right, because the Palestinians never existed, they were just these horrible, backwards Mozlems who've been occupying land that has always and will always belong to Jews, just because they're Jewish, and fuck everyone else. Go ahead thinking Israel's out there all by itself in the middle of this horrible sea of terrorists, without billions of dollars and political support from the only superpower.
You're gonna have a smart ass comment after this that is purely fueled by your dislike of "terrorist" Arabs or Muslims. Just look at the facts, man.
icingdeath88 (whatever that name means) - why are you posting gibberish about something you apparently don't comprehend on a gadget forum?
Just because the word Israel appear in a title, this does not mean the comment section becomes a forum to bash Jewish people and their country. If the story was as one-sided as you put it, then there wouldn't be any right to Israel's existence. Obviously there is and this is about technology so keep your ridiculous comments away. I think there is technology section at Aljazeera's website for you to find some friends:)
Now that we've thrown 'em off the trail, use the form below to get in touch with the people at Engadget. Please fill in all of the required fields because they're required.
At least the white smokes makes terrorists cough!
Nahh....but it might scare land-stealing, government-backed, military- protected Israeli settlers (aka the real terrorists).

Not to mention that map you posted was irrelevant, purposefully hard to interpret, and created in 2002 before the withdraw from the West Bank.
WTF is wrong with you?
politics and gadgets don't blend
