Iran holds enough uranium for bomb

[Der Bücherwurm 1]

I would say that few Americans even realize that Persians (Iran) are not Arabs! I have been telling folks that for years.

Yeah, most Iranians consider being called Arab as fighting words along the lines of insulting someone's mama. But I must admit I start teasing my husband about that and the fact he needs a visa just to go to Mexico when he starts going on about Persia having the world's oldest civilization and whatnot.

Iran test-fires new missile

TEHRAN (Reuters) - Iran has test-fired a new air-to-surface missile, Iranian media reported on Sunday, in the Islamic Republic's latest display of its military capability.

The missile test was carried out despite the offer by the administration of new U.S. President Barack Obama to engage Iran in direct talks if it "unclenches its fist".

Iran's Fars News Agency said the domestically produced missile had a range of 110 km and was designed for use by military aircraft against naval targets.

"Now these jet fighters have acquired a new capability in confronting threats," the semi-official news agency said. Iran's Press TV initially said a long-range missile had been tested, but later also used Fars' way of describing it.

Iran often stages war games or tests weapons to show its determination to counter any attack by foes such as Israel and the United States.

Israel and Washington accuse Tehran of trying to develop nuclear bombs. Iran says its nuclear programme is a peaceful drive to generate electricity so that the world's fourth-largest oil producer can export more of its gas and crude.

Israel, believed to be the only nuclear-armed Middle East state, has said Iran's nuclear plans threaten its existence and has not ruled out military action if diplomacy fails to end the dispute.

Iran has said it would respond to any attack by targeting U.S. interests and Israel, as well as closing the Strait of Hormuz, a waterway between the Gulf and the Sea of Oman through which about 40 percent of the world's traded oil is shipped.

One Western defence analyst said he believed the missile test was a signal by Iran that "we can severely disrupt traffic" in the Gulf if attacked.

A top Iranian military commander said recently that Iranian missiles could now reach Israeli nuclear sites.

Iran has often said it has missiles able to reach the Jewish state but had not previously mentioned such specific targets.

Israel is believed to be the only nuclear-armed Middle East state.

Let's talk about countries bombing other countries and who comes in 2, 3 or 4th to Iraq? Is it Iran? Who the hell said they plan on dropping a nuclear bomb?

droppin a nuke anywhere, and I mean anywhere in the world is a death wish for Iran and subsequent Islamic regimes that promote terrorism

Amazing, just amazing, your self doubt. Try having personal relations with some Iranians and then consider yourself fully informed. The people of Iran are without a voice under their present leadership. I have been many places in this world, to include Egypt. While I was in Egypt, I was there when they were bombed. There is a continued strife between Israel and Egypt to this day due to the Catholicism vs- Jewish vs- Muslim beliefs. I watched every church in Egypt protected by armed rifle bearing Egyptian police for them to safely assemble and there was another bombing 2 weekends ago in that same location where expates freguent. As Egypt too is under terrible leadership, do we blame all the people living there and unable to leave for one reason or another? Oh, and do you feel Egyptians are more tolerable of Israel or Iran? Ask your husband about all this I state here. When I traveled to Egypt I had a prior Jewish last name on my passport. I had to change it back to my maidan Italian name on my second visit to be sure I was safe traveling into Germany and then to Egypt. If I had an Iranian last name as now, there may be no problem until entering into my own country that will profile me. Yet, I am a born american citizen of the United States having a mideastern name. I watched my husband be pulled aside by Homeland Security when they saw he had a mideastern name and he was interrogated for hours. He is a peaceful, loving, educated humanitarian and medical doctor too. It sickened me and embarrassed me as an American to see this profiling. The Egyptian people are very peaceful and loving people, as is the Iranian people. Isreal, as I know first hand and was married to one for 17 years loves to throw stones from their glass houses. Their Leader has been acting as the superior race and religion. Being presently married to an Iranian, lets say I come from both sides of the fence and spectrum, to include I am Italian and my views are not narrowed. Look at America and what happened under our prior leadership. Are you getting my message yet? LEADERSHIP! It is not the people you should harshly judge in their country and steriotype them all. Look at our country. We are broke from bad leadership and our soldiers are dying left to right because of bad judgement calls and terrible decision making and of course lacking the maturity to admit when we are wrong and making swift corrective action. Should every American be reflective of the prior leadership? As according to your view point. YES! Well, count me out. I want nothing to do with that prior idiots poor judgement and lack of leadership quality. I am a proud American and love hot dogs and apple pie, but I want nothing to do with the hatred, prejustice, bigotry, steriotyping, profiling, ego with many people in this beautiful country of rights and freedom. I am a former officer of 7 years and welcome you to get into a uniform, bear arms and put your life where you mouth is. You are too young to even form an opinion in my eyes and you beleive what you hear as many do and repeat what you hear like a parrot.

also, I have no doubt in my mind that Iran will use or attempt to use a bomb in the near future. While its so obvious of their hate for America & Israel and while they play paddy cake paddy cake with Russia, they will probably pull a fast one when no one suspects it in attempt to destroy.

Thank you REFIGH! I thought I was battling this ignorant forum alone. It is so very sad what I read here from others. I am actually crying.

The Iranian president and the western media gives Iranians a worse rap than they deserve. Most Iranians are fed up with the islamic regime. So much so in fact that many Iranians are renouncing islam, converting to other religions or just giving up on being religious altogether. My husband and his family and friends are the latter. You'd be surprised by how many agnostics or people that say they believe in a god but not any organized religion there are in Iran. You'd also be surprised at the number of Iranians that sympathize with Israel just to go against the islamic regime and because of their dislike of Arabs. Mahmoud I'manutjob is a village idiot but he's not likely to nuke anyone. Sure he'll fund militant groups like Hezbollah in other countries but he's not likely to give nukes to any Arab country because at the end of the day Persians hate Arabs.
