Iran- The country's state Press TV reported today that Iran has test fired a new long range missile. AP reports that 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. These two countries are two which have accused the Islamic Republic of seeking to develop nuclear bombs.
The Press TV report comes just a few days after a top Iranian military commander announced that Iranian missiles could now reach Israeli nuclear sites.
Israel, thankfully still has a back bone, they have said that they have not ruled out military action if diplomacy fails. This used to be a shared opinion with the U.S. However, now Pres. Obama has threatened to Engage Iran in DIRECT TALKS if it will "unclench its fist".
