That is very scary.
Reply By Saladdin Saladdin | 2 months ago
the missile itself should not scare anyone... how many missiles do they have?

Any missile attack can and will be intercepted by anti-missile defense systems.

Unless they develop the technology to build nuke bombs, all those military parades are for propaganda only and means nothing strategically.

If Iran cannot even hold a proper election, then Iran will be incapable of shooting off missiles properly. That's why they test missiles all of the time; the tests always fail.
