Iran has made "very rapid progress" in its long-range missile research and development.
Iran has produced a 27 meter-long missile capable of carrying a warhead "far beyond Europe." Israels Channel 2 News broadcast satellite images of the missile at a launch site near Tehran (pictured). (Photo via Israel Today)
The missile was ostensibly built to ferry satellites into orbit, but could also be used to deliver warheads nearly anywhere on the planet. Israel has also produced and successfully launched missiles with such dual capabilities.
According to the Channel 2 report, Iran has made "very rapid progress" in its long-range missile research and development.
Israel accuses the Islamic Republic of working toward nuclear weapons technology, and a long-range delivery platform would be an integral part of such a program. Iran denies that it is seeking a nuclear bomb.
The images presented by Channel 2 were provided by the Israeli satellite Eros B, a commercial observation satellite developed by ImageSat International.

We could put a cruise missile down that shaft in about 9.2 seconds. Im sure we already have the coordinates plotted for just that. I'm sure we do. We have everything except the political will to confront Iran's nuclear threat head-on. Deja-vu Neville Chamberlain.

“We could put a cruise missile down that shaft in about 9.2 seconds”
Could and would are two entirely different things. And it would take a good deal longer than 9.2 seconds as cruise missiles are sub-sonic critters.

In this case, I believe his personal hatred will get the better of him. I believe that Israel will be the more likely to support Netanyahu after what is a blatant insult to him, and to Israel.
I heard an interesting tidbit last night. In the secular state of israel, for the first time, there are a majority of Israelis who want to see the Temple rebuilt, it's at a high of 59%.

Our Islamic terrorists enemies may fool the left with their lies and deceit, but the right is indeed right once again.I don't know if it's completely accurate to say that the left is being "fooled." That would imply that they would acknowledge the danger, and support whatever action needed to be taken to eliminate the threat, if someone were to explain the truth to them. They don't want to hear it. To paraphrase Jack Nicholson's character in "A Few Good Men", "They can't handle the truth!"

Like you read my mind. I agree.

Hatred of Jews and of Israel is intrinsic, deep, and visceral in almost all Muslims. No matter how coolly objective they can be in their own best interests on other issues (which isn’t much), they aren’t at all capable of being so when it comes to Jews and Israel. Little wonder, when this hatred is force-fed into them with their mother’s milk.

Sure wish we had some. It’s a great idea and well possible from a technical standpoint.
