Iran unveils second underground missile, likely to irk U.S. (Emad; nuclear warhead carry capable)

DUBAI (Reuters) - Iran unveiled a new underground missile depot on Tuesday with state television showing Emad precision-guided missiles in store which the United States says can take a nuclear warhead and violate a 2010 U.N. Security Council resolution.

The defiant move to publicize Iran's missile program seemed certain to irk the United States as it plans to dismantle nearly all sanctions on Iran under a breakthrough nuclear agreement.

Tasnim news agency and state television video said the underground facility, situated in mountains and run by Iran's Revolutionary Guards, was inaugurated by the speaker of parliament, Ali Larijani. Release of one-minute video followed footage of another underground missile depot last October.

The United States says the Emad, which Iran tested in October, would be capable of carrying a nuclear warhead and U.S. officials say Washington will respond to the Emad tests with fresh sanctions against Iranian individuals and businesses linked to the program.

In other words, Obama is an idiot, and his supporters will come to cry out in horror over what they have done by electing this idiot.

White House Delaying Iran Missile Sanctions Until They'd Have 'Maximum Impact'

Maximum Impact? Like after you launch them?

Once Iran finds out that the US is irked, they'll fold like a cheap suit.

The Fraud’s primary handler is iranian.

Washington will respond to the Emad tests with fresh sanctions against Iranian individuals and businesses linked to the program.

How is it that we know all about the individuals and businesses linked to the MISSILE program, but claim not to have known about the MISSILES ?

You just know Lurch will be giving a presser real soon to tell everyone that there is nothing to worry about, Iran is just concerned for their safety and that’s why they want nukes and ICBM’s, their continued calling for death to America is just for show and anyway we have that really great, for Iran, non binding treaty thingy that he brokered.

I’m beginning to think every Democrat and most Republican politicians have an iranian and/or muslim “senior aide” handler, to carry out ValJar’s orders and say what they’re expected to say.

Huma has ties to the Muslim Brotherhood, which is Sunni. Jarrett is from Iran, which is Shia.

I can't imagine that Jarrett cares about Islam, only how Muslims can be used to throw off the shackles of "Western imperialism."

I don't understand why Obama would favor the Shia over the Sunnis.

Remember when Obama said he would be President for the next 8-10 years? (See http://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/warner-todd-huston/2008/07/20/obama-ill-be-president-next-8-10-years ) I suspect that the plan has always been for him to enable a massive Iranian attack as the means to keep any President-elect from ever taking office. By Obama’s 10th year the Islamic caliphate would be complete and Obama the puppet, no longer needed as taqiyya/cover/enabler by the Islamist masters who illegally put him into our White House, would retire to his own little paradise (he thinks).

That’s why he’s not worried about Trump taking office.

Obama is going to spend a LOT of time outside the USA this year. (See http://www.nytimes.com/2016/01/03/us/foreign-policy-trips-fill-obamas-schedule-for-final-year.html ) Something “security-related” (not plumbing updates as publicly claimed, and something that workers have been sworn to secrecy on (See http://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/white-house-big-dig-wraps-project-remains-shrouded-mystery-article-1.1158343 ) has been built under the White House. Speculation was that it was preparations for First Family shelter in a terrorist attack; I thought I remembered it being reported that they’ve got medical supplies for several years, etc). So probably Obama feels ready for whatever attack is to come (remember Janet Napolitano saying at her resignation that there was going to be a big event that would dwarf any catastrophe thus far?) but being outside the USA at the time of the attack would make it less likely that military folks who knew Obama was behind the attacks could seize him in the chaos, and deliver justice. I believe the terrorist attacks of late are setting the stage, letting people know that terrorists are already here and making it appear that Obama is trying to stop them when, in fact, Obama has armed, funded, excused, and taken illegal steps here to hold the door open for terrorists and make sure they are equipped to do the most damage possible. World Islamists got Obama into the White House for a reason, and everything Obama has done has advanced sharia and those wanting sharia, here in the USA and all over the world.

There is a hole in our radar defense that makes us vulnerable to an attack from the southern hemisphere. If I understand correctly that would make the southern hemisphere a safer place from the effects. In November Obama will be in South America yukking it up with his communist terrorist buddies like FARC, Castro, etc. I think I’d watch closely, because that could be the time for Iran’s bomb to get the use they have promised all along - to wipe out the USA and Israel. They’ve practiced the delivery system needed for an EMP attack.

With all that in mind, it would make sense that Obama will delay anything that would stop Iran. Iran has always been in the plan. It makes sense that he is still holding the door open for terrorists here; that was always the plan.

Obama knew before he was illegally placed into office that he was supposed to provide cover for 8-10 years. He said that in July of 2008 (2 months before the financial terrorist attack of 9-11-08 was used to give Obama a lead in the polls). So the Caliphate was supposed to be complete sometime between about July of 2016 to July of 2018.

And sure enough, he’s been working like a dog to provide political cover for all the preparations, which are now in place. Nobody has done a dang thing to stop him, this whole time. Trump has come in as a fighter but by the time Trump can do anything it will be too late.

That’s what I suspect. Call me crazy, but I’m making sure I’m ready for an EMP attack any day now.

Re my Post #17, I think all Democrats and most Republican politicians now have a muslim agent handler.

I don't understand why Obama would favor the Shia over the Sunnis.

Who knows, he's our biggest enemy.

Perhaps there's some larger "(re-)unification" effort in progress, that the world's elites believe is necessary for world control.

Or we're being set up for "Armageddon", muslim style.

Divide and conquer. The Fraud will always take ANY position that is detrimental to America.
