Every Israeli needs a wearable Iron Dome to protect them from blade and projectile attacks. Border security won't be enough because the Palestinians can fly over the border in ornithopters or tunnel through the sand.

Having the prescience to predict attacks before they happen is a rare gift, and the Israelis don't seem to have anyone with that gift.
