Iran has made "very rapid progress" in its long-range missile research and development.

The missile was ostensibly built to ferry satellites into orbit, but could also be used to deliver warheads nearly anywhere on the planet. Israel has also produced and successfully launched missiles with such dual capabilities.
According to the Channel 2 report, Iran has made "very rapid progress" in its long-range missile research and development.
Israel accuses the Islamic Republic of working toward nuclear weapons technology, and a long-range delivery platform would be an integral part of such a program. Iran denies that it is seeking a nuclear bomb.
The images presented by Channel 2 were provided by the Israeli satellite Eros B, a commercial observation satellite developed by ImageSat International.

The 0bama regime will deny it and say Israel Photoshopped the picture(s) .....
Anything to weaken USA, our defenses, economy (jobs), morals, morale, or allies. Consistent and predictable. Six years and running —
“Far beyond Europe” - Beijing? Buenos Aires? Canberra? Whom would this threaten, the most?
We could put a cruise missile down that shaft in about 9.2 seconds. I’m sure we already have the coordinates plotted for just that.
Thank you, Diogenensis, for the pic. Our Islamic terroists enemies may fool the left with their lies and deceit, but the right is indeed right once again. I am glad for those like yourself who hold to the truth.
Iran has to know Israel would decimate them if they pulled the trigger. The US, after Obama, would likely assist.
Yea, but our President is allies of the Islamic terrorists and will use his political left wing followers to stop the truth from coming out, a media system that is as communist as Russia and China is.
Obola’s only going to ratchet it up now, too. he’s got nothing left to win or lose. I’m expecting him to pardon that Mumia Abu Jamal amongst other black violent criminals when he leaves office. I’m expecting him to unilaterally implement some outrageous policy which we will be a deliberate, unmistakeable spit in the eye to the US, to Israel, to both. He’s that petty, vengeful, spiteful, and full of hate, and he won’t worry about his “legacy”, as he creates his own reality and his supporters live in his world.
They are not "fooling" the left. The leftist Demonic scum are fine with the terrorist-supporting Iranians having nuclear weapons, all in the favor of their perverted notion of "fairness".
I'm equally sure that we're not the only nation with cruise missiles that knows those coordinates.
Mumia’s in prison on state charges. Obama can’t pardon him.
She is such a loser.
Nice big target there.
It isn’t pointed at us, so I wonder who it is for?
Israel will take it out. We don’t have the money for another war. And Russia will support Iran if we decided to have another adventure.
All in Valerie’s plan. Let Iran threaten us with a nuke launch and Obama takes over as dictator of the world.
This is what you get when you clone a mixture of Kim Jong Un and Dr. No.
