Re: triggering the missiles, did you read the article? It talks about a scenario where the soldiers are tricked into firing the missiles. Re: doing more damage if they dropped bowling balls from the roof, that's just flat out wrong. For a start, the missiles travel at 2800 miles per hour which is an order of magnitude higher than the terminal velocity of a bowling ball, so the impact alone would be much more damaging. Secondly, the warhead is housed in a tungsten shell which is designed to fragment on impact to maximise damage inside the target. And then there are the explosives as well. The source for all this, by the way, is the wikipedia link you posted.
