Washington Free Beacon:

Iran's ballistic missile work, particularly its focus on ICBMs, runs counter to United Nations resolutions barring such activity, though it remains unclear if the Trump administration plans to pursue new sanctions on Iran.

Iran continues to perform key research and development on nuclear missile capabilities despite the landmark nuclear agreement with Western powers, according to the last U.S. intelligence assessments.

How do we know ?
The deal doesn’t include outside observation.
Iran is self-reporting.
Do we have people on the inside ?

Yak... yak... yak... talk... talk... talk...

Stop tip-toeing around the issue and just drop a few MOABs on the nuke-making facilities and be done with it.

If Iran doesn't like it, too bad.

Why should they stop, the UN is doing nothing about the NK program. If any country really wants the program to stop, a real shooting war must be threatened, and who wants that.
