Missile

Iran has test fired a new long range missile with the range of 1,242 miles. For any geography buffs that will reach Israel and all of our forces in the Middle East. Additionally it is believed it can be fitted with a nuclear device.

Even my sleep deprived brain must assume this is not good news. With Iran and North Korea both thumbing their noses at the world regarding obtaining nuclear weapons this is clearly a threat to anyone in the neighborhood of these fine, peace loving nations.

So, now the big question. Who will use what first and on whom? My guess Iran is in a better position to make a move although it would not be the smartest thing one could do. Remember, Israel is supposed to have upwards to 100 nuclear weapons and have both delivery systems and the will to use them.

It’s a scary thing that is developing and one cannot keep a lid on this mess forever.
