The so-called Iranian made missile was actually manufactured in China and purchased by Iran. Iran recently test fired an air-launched version of the Chinese C-802 cruise missile, named "Noor" by Iran.

Anyone still have any doubts about who the REAL PLAYERS are in the middle east??
Now these raving maniacs in Tehran are openly providing terrorist groups with advanced missiles.
Let's not wait until a terrorist missile is finally outfitted with a nuclear weapon.
Armageddon is getting closer than anyone thought. All the players of the Russian led coalition of Iran, Turkey, Russian Arab states, Syria invasion of Israel is unfolding before our very eyes which Ezekiel 38 & 39 prophecied:
Ezekiel 38
1 This is another message that came to me from the LORD:2 "Son of man, turn and face Gog of the land of Magog, the prince who rules over the nations of Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy against him.3 Give him this message from the Sovereign LORD: Gog, I am your enemy!4 I will turn you around and put hooks in your jaws to lead you out with your whole army—your horses and charioteers in full armor and a great horde armed with shields and swords.5 Persia, Ethiopia, and Libya* will join you, too, with all their weapons.6 Gomer and all its armies will also join you, along with the armies of Beth-togarmah from the distant north, and many others.
7 "Get ready; be prepared! Keep all the armies around you mobilized, and take command of them.8 A long time from now you will be called into action. In the distant future you will swoop down on the land of Israel, which will be enjoying peace after recovering from war and after its people have returned from many lands to the mountains of Israel.9 You and all your allies—a vast and awesome army—will roll down on them like a storm and cover the land like a cloud.
10 "This is what the Sovereign LORD says: At that time evil thoughts will come to your mind, and you will devise a wicked scheme.11 You will say, `Israel is an unprotected land filled with unwalled villages! I will march against her and destroy these people who live in such confidence!12 I will go to those formerly desolate cities that are now filled with people who have returned from exile in many nations. I will capture vast amounts of plunder, for the people are rich with livestock and other possessions now. They think the whole world revolves around them!'13 But Sheba and Dedan and the merchants of Tarshish will ask, `Do you really think the armies you have gathered can rob them of silver and gold? Do you think you can drive away their livestock and seize their goods and carry off plunder?'
14 "Therefore, son of man, prophesy against Gog. Give him this message from the Sovereign LORD: When my people are living in peace in their land, then you will rouse yourself.*15 You will come from your homeland in the distant north with your vast cavalry and your mighty army,16 and you will attack my people Israel, covering their land like a cloud. At that time in the distant future, I will bring you against my land as everyone watches, and my holiness will be displayed by what happens to you, Gog. Then all the nations will know that I am the LORD.
17 "This is what the Sovereign LORD asks: Are you the one I was talking about long ago, when I announced through Israel's prophets that in the future I would bring you against my people?18 But this is what the Sovereign LORD says: When Gog invades the land of Israel, my fury will boil over!19 In my jealousy and blazing anger, I promise a mighty shaking in the land of Israel on that day.20 All living things—the fish in the sea, the birds of the sky, the animals of the field, the small animals that scurry along the ground, and all the people on earth—will quake in terror at my presence. Mountains will be thrown down; cliffs will crumble; walls will fall to the earth.21 I will summon the sword against you on all the hills of Israel, says the Sovereign LORD. Your men will turn their swords against each other.22 I will punish you and your armies with disease and bloodshed; I will send torrential rain, hailstones, fire, and burning sulfur!23 In this way, I will show my greatness and holiness, and I will make myself known to all the nations of the world. Then they will know that I am the LORD.
Ezekiel 39
The Slaughter of Gog's Hordes
1 "Son of man, prophesy against Gog. Give him this message from the Sovereign LORD: I am your enemy, O Gog, ruler of the nations of Meshech and Tubal.2 I will turn you around and drive you toward the mountains of Israel, bringing you from the distant north.3 I will knock the bow from your left hand and the arrows from your right hand, and I will leave you helpless.4 You and your army and your allies will all die on the mountains. I will feed you to the vultures and wild animals.5 You will fall in the open fields, for I have spoken, says the Sovereign LORD.6 And I will rain down fire on Magog and on all your allies who live safely on the coasts. Then they will know that I am the LORD.
7 "In this way, I will make known my holy name among my people of Israel. I will not let anyone bring shame on it. And the nations, too, will know that I am the LORD, the Holy One of Israel.8 That day of judgment will come, says the Sovereign LORD. Everything will happen just as I have declared it.
9 "Then the people in the towns of Israel will go out and pick up your small and large shields, bows and arrows, javelins and spears, and they will use them for fuel. There will be enough to last them seven years!10 They won't need to cut wood from the fields or forests, for these weapons will give them all the fuel they need. They will plunder those who planned to plunder them, and they will rob those who planned to rob them, says the Sovereign LORD.
11 "And I will make a vast graveyard for Gog and his hordes in the Valley of the Travelers, east of the Dead Sea.* It will block the way of those who travel there, and they will change the name of the place to the Valley of Gog's Hordes.12 It will take seven months for the people of Israel to bury the bodies and cleanse the land.13 Everyone in Israel will help, for it will be a glorious victory for Israel when I demonstrate my glory on that day, says the Sovereign LORD.
14 "After seven months, teams of men will be appointed to search the land for skeletons to bury, so the land will be made clean again.15 Whenever bones are found, a marker will be set up so the burial crews will take them to be buried in the Valley of Gog's Hordes.16 (There will be a town there named Hamonah, which means `horde.') And so the land will finally be cleansed.
17 "And now, son of man, this is what the Sovereign LORD says: Call all the birds and wild animals. Say to them: Gather together for my great sacrificial feast. Come from far and near to the mountains of Israel, and there eat flesh and drink blood!18 Eat the flesh of mighty men and drink the blood of princes as though they were rams, lambs, goats, and bulls—all fattened animals from Bashan!
19 Gorge yourselves with flesh until you are glutted; drink blood until you are drunk. This is the sacrificial feast I have prepared for you.20 Feast at my banquet table—feast on horses and charioteers, on mighty men and all kinds of valiant warriors, says the Sovereign LORD.
21 "In this way, I will demonstrate my glory to the nations. Everyone will see the punishment I have inflicted on them and the power of my fist when I strike.22 And from that time on the people of Israel will know that I am the LORD their God.23 The nations will then know why Israel was sent away to exile—it was punishment for sin, for they were unfaithful to their God. Therefore, I turned away from them and let their enemies destroy them.24 I turned my face away and punished them because of their defilement and their sins.
Restoration for God's People
25 "So now, this is what the Sovereign LORD says: I will end the captivity of my people*; I will have mercy on all Israel, for I jealously guard my holy reputation!26 They will accept responsibility for their past shame and unfaithfulness after they come home to live in peace in their own land, with no one to bother them.27 When I bring them home from the lands of their enemies, I will display my holiness among them for all the nations to see.28 Then my people will know that I am the LORD their God, because I sent them away to exile and brought them home again. I will leave none of my people behind.29 And I will never again turn my face from them, for I will pour out my Spirit upon the people of Israel. I, the Sovereign LORD, have spoken!"
Somebody needs to tell the Israelis that military sales to China should not occur beyond the stone ax level.
In the report the writer (I won't call them a reporter) says the missile is radar guided and yet suggests this particular missile would be effective against nuclear power plants and other unlikely targets. What kind of radar signature does a nuclear power plant return?
