#1 Reuters, the Assoc Press, MISSLEALERT.com, ALERTNEWS.com and others have news reports ascribing that Iran intends to build 90-100 missles a year based on the SHIHAB/SHAHAB-3 IRBM design, and that ultimately Iran intends to have its future arsenal armed wid nuke warheads. I believe Iran's neighbors know that Iran's Mullahs are hell-bent on achieving Iranian EMPIRE based on Radical Islam, and that no curr sovereign regional nation, be it Jewish Israel or Muslim states, allied to the USA, enemy of the USA, or Neutral, will be safe once Tehran devs an organz nuke capability. Even assuming that Iran and Russia-China are not in cahoots, the only pragmatic reason for Iran to work wid infidels Russia andor China is to induce geopol
"brinkmanship", i.e. military confrontation, between the USA and Russia-China, etal., and hopefully an anti-US foreign intervention force in case the USA does invade Iran. ONCE RADICALIST-CONTROLLED IRAN ACQUIRES NUKES, ITS LIKELY MAJOR US ALLIES, OR EVEN RUSSIA-CHINA, WILL NOT BE ABLE TO DO ANYTHING UNILATER AGS NUCLEARIZED IRAN UNLESS DONE IN [US-LED?]INTERNATIONAL COALITION, AND NOT UNLESS ANY ARE WILLING TO WAGE REGIONAL OR HIGHER NUKE WAR. The USA either accepts a nuclear Iran or not, to includ a nuclear Iran backed up by Cold War competitors Russia-China, and to includ future Iranian Empire. ALL SIDES?CAMPS IN THIS GWOT, HOWEVER NEUTRAL, ARE IN A "KILL OR BE KILLED", "FIGHT OR DIE", "RULE OR BE SLAVE" SITUATION, whether they know it or not, like it or not - the Lefties don't care becuz they already intend to take the world with them to hell.

#2 "the Lefties don't care becuz they already intend to take the world with them to hell." Never thought of it that way before, but you've hit the nail on the head.

#3 Russia is well within range of the new Iranian missiles. That means the first time they don't do what the iranians want they will be labeled "apostates" and subject to attack as well. Boggles my mind why russia is so happy to help Iran build its nuke program. Is it for the quick money, as a jibe to the U.S., do they even have a plan?

#4 Bigjim-
When you say Russia, think Byzantium. They're employing the same convoluted, and ultimately losing, strategy.
