No shot a Hamas rocket has that kind of firepower, especially after detonation.

If you watch the comparison video, it sounds very much like a US JDAM rig (which is like a strap-on guidance system for normally-dumb ordinance; so instead of just falling from a plane and hoping for the best, it can aim and steer to a target.

Do you know who has US military tech? Hmmm

Again: So there is a sound comparison of two videoclips with no information whatsoever when they were created and what they are showing.

Why is that proof for anything?

If it was a misfire, it could still have been full of fuel, could that have had an effect?
