Dust off the Monroe Doctrine? Not likely.
I’ve been saying this is Chavez’s goal for years.
This is Cuba all over again. $hitbomba doesn’t have a clue and will sell out the US for another autographed book from Chavez. These missile sites should be destroyed as of yesterday and Chavez should be the next Bin Laden this week.
I found some sources (Jerusalem Post) last night which indicated Iran had purchased some missiles from North Korea which had a 3500 km range and the ability to orbit a 300kg warhead.
3500 km would allow them to hit the eastern half the of the US. Dallas up to the eastern Great Lakes to the east coast.
The 300kg warhead would allow them to hit pretty much anyplace. We know they claim to have achieved orbit with a satellite payload so this appears to be credible.
Obama must be peeing in his pants.............with glee
V2 style missiles are militarily insignificant, mostly a political and psychological weapon. If they go nuclear, they will drive the rest of South America into the American camp.
A big liability for Obama is the notion that he could deter certain actions, but simply choses not to. Obama’s friend Chavez could help him for providing a logical strategic reason for Obama to do nothing —and so the liability is removed.
Indeed the whole concept of MAD has been reinforced in the public mind for decades.

Well just as long as they don't point them at any American cities.
