Iran says 150,000 missiles pointed at Israel
2011-11-28
[Jerusalem Post] Iranian Defense Minister Brigadier General Ahmad Vahidi said that the Islamic Theocratic Republic has up to 150,000 missiles pointed at Israel, according to the semi-official Iranian FARS news agency.

According to the report, Vahidi questioned threats against the Islamic Theocratic Republic from Jerusalem, asking "How many missiles have they prepared themselves for? 10,000? 20,000? 50,000? 100,000, 150,000 or more?"

On Saturday, Tehran made a rare threat against Turkey, saying it could target the recently installed NATO
...the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. It's headquartered in Belgium. That sez it all....
anti-missile shield in any future conflict.

The chain of military warnings from the Islamic Theocratic Republic intensified after the release of a damning ineffective International Atomic Energy Agency report, which claimed that Iran has continued to covertly develop nuclear-weapons technology.

That report was followed by increased sanctions from the United States, the United Kingdom and Canada on Iran's energy and financial sectors last week.

#7  Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Iraq, Turkey, Lebanon, Syria, Egypt, and anyone else in the area may not be so happy about having half of those rockets flying over their heads. I figure half of however many rockets there really are are probably based in Lebanon and Syria.

#6  I wonder how many of the 150000 missiles they may be able to launch before 200 nuclear warheads are launched by the Israelis in response
