I've often wondered, considering the supposed low accuracy of Scud missiles, (wiki gives it a CEP of 450m) how much of the casualties from that incident were more due to the bad luck of the missile actually hitting its target.

If the Scud had been brought down earlier in it's trajectory it would have not been near people regardless of any randomness in it's landing.

many of the scuds "broke up in flight" or otherwise malfunctioned, too, so the actual effectiveness of patriot has been called into question.
