“Everybody plays the fool… lovin’ eyes can never see… it may be factual it may be true…”

Why wasn’t it in the NIE? No confidence in the range.

coffee on the missile page in the NIE report,

So, why did “IC” so suddenly and inexplicably come into favor? I know my opinion isn’t all that important, but something about it bugs me.

Sorry, did a little more Yahoo / Google. If they’re lucky the Iranians might hit Athens. It’s only 2479 km from Tehran to Athens, Greece.

Hey Europe! Go ahead and sit on your thumbs. And good luck!

And Iran. Nuke Iraq or Israel and you’ll become a big, glowing, glass parking lot.

Yahoo is my friend. NY City to Tehran is 9878 km.

Europe, you’ve got problems.

Good luck.

But The NIE Said…….

I guess the new NIE just missed this altogether huh? (h/t Hot Air) Iran tested a newly-developed ballistic missile on the day of the Annapolis conference, Channel 10 reported Wednesday. The Ashoura missile has a range of 2,000 kilometers and……

Would 2000 km from Iran reach US soil? If not? Hey Europe! You’ve got problems.

What would they use a missile like that for. Maybe we should consult the NIE. It sure would make for speedy delivery.

Maybe they just want to use them for… Festivities or something.

They’re just looking for intelligent life.

Since there’s none in Iran.

(Or on the NIE teams.)

This is just another attempt by chickenhawk, warmongering Neocons to wage war for oil. Iran is pursuing peaceful nuclear energy. And even if they were looking for nuclear weapons, it’d only be to protect themselves from the evil empire that is the United States.
