The secret site where Iran is suspected of developing long-range ballistic missiles capable of reaching targets in Europe has been uncovered by new satellite photographs.
The imagery has pinpointed the facility from where the Iranians launched their Kavoshgar 1 research rocket on February 4, claiming that it was in connection with their space programme.
Analysis of the photographs taken by the Digital Globe QuickBird satellite four days after the launch has revealed a number of intriguing features that indicate to experts that it is the same site where Iran is focusing its efforts on developing a ballistic missile with a range of about 6,000km (4,000 miles).

I does not seem to dawn on them that Iran already has missiles to reach Israel. If Iran *only* wanted to attack Israel, then they would stop there. Iran has long had a goal of having a missile that can reach any point on the European Continent. Currently, they are working hard to reach that goal. Gee, I wonder why...

Indeed. When was the last time that the UK threatened to nuke one of its neighbours or any other nation in Europe? The PM doesn’t engage in long-wided nutbag speeches about Da Joooooooos.

BTW, the Brits at The Times are placating themselves by preferring to believe that they’ve found Iran’s only long range launch site. Yesterday, it was the myth that Iran is only after Israel.
The sites where such staging occurs will probably only be known after mounting. We need to invade, occupy and denazify Iran ASAP.

After the first detonation?
Nah, that’ll just be another case of “chickens coming home to rrroooossssssst”
To: parisa
IIRC, the U.S. accidentally dropped bombs on Ghadaffi’s family due to “faulty intelligence.” Perhaps lightning can strike twice.
