The Patriot is an anti-missile rocket, and by all acounts, while they did move the Patriot batteries into Haifa, they didn't use them.
Israel's Army Radio said the Patriots were most likely intended for use against longer range rockets than the Katyusha, and also as a precaution against the possibility of missiles being fired at Israel from Syria

Israel is a tiny nation when compared to others in mid east,and has a right to exist,they are not aggressive when left alone.but they and the rest of us have got a lunatic ENEMY in Iran,they are sponsering all muslim nations to wipe out not only Israel,but all western civilisations.To answer the question,when faced by such
a foe,attack is the best method of defence.I am not Jewish,but am sympathetic to Israel.Nb,the same enemy of us all did 9/11,and the attempt to blow aircraft out of the sky recently.

Don't think Israel used them at all. They aren't attack weapons at all. There are much better rockets that can be used in an offensive manner.

I do not think they were used at all, the rockets fired at into Israel were low trajectory and so the patriots could not be used.
Israel primarily used artillery, I haven't seen any reports of rocket fire... missle fire yes.

they are ground to air missiles and cant be targeted at land targets
so they are purely defensive
