Iran heavily invested in North Korean missile program
LONDON — Teheran has been financing Pyongyang's intermediate and ICBM programs for nearly a decade, Western intelligence sources said. The funding has been part of a deal in which North Korea would share missile technology and equipment with Iran. "Anytime you hear of a North Korean success, translate that directly into an Iranian success," an intelligence source said. "You can be sure that within a few weeks, Iran will receive briefings, training and eventually production expertise from Pyongyang."

The NK missile tests last week or so were for the Iranians.
Interesting how that timing works out!
A very poor investment.
Especially right now
This is all made possible by you know who.
Axis of Evil.
So Iran has been trying for ten yearsto get N. Korea to build them a missile. They have threatened to wipe Israel off the map, but they just want a nuclear power oplant , not a bomb.
Only France is stupid enough to believe that.
Axis of evil PING. Add pig faced Hugo Chavez to the mix.
Kim is laughing all the way to the bank.
