Fake "North Korean" missiles have been hurtling over the Pacific toward the U.S. for years, providing test fodder for the Pentagon's missile-defense systems. But next month, the fake enemy missiles flying over the same ocean are going to be "Iranian." The timing of the test, however, has nothing to do with a missile test-fired by Iran on Tuesday. That was a medium-range Sajjil-2 missile capable of targeting Israel or U.S. bases in the Persian Gulf. Next month's U.S. interceptor test will, instead, be aimed at the as-yet-hypothetical threat of an Iranian intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM), even though such a threat has been deemed by the Obama Administration to be unlikely in the immediate future.
achmidjah is a nutjob, but a calculating nutjob, he seeing a weaklling in the white house, a weakling who bows to countries, will accomdate other countries to the detriment of his own country.
A-jad is doing what most leaders do, make sure their countries are strong.
Thank God for the US military, this is why George Washington and the other founders wanted the US military to pledge allegeiance to the US constitution and to the US flag and the american people, NOT to the US govt (which can be controlled by socialists and marxists, as it is right now, who will not keep america's interests #1). The US military are sworn to protect the very founding of this great country, as for the US govt, like the WH and congress, who the hell knows what they pledge allegiance to, its not the US contitution or the american people, they have first allegience to themselves and their UNdemocratic disgusting marxist political party!
