Not in the near future. Trying to hit a continent is different from hitting a city. Besides they don't have nuclear weapons so an ICBM isn't of much use. Aside from that, the payload of their 'ICBM' is way too small to carry any primitive nuclear device they might be conjuring up. ** Posted from http://www.teranews.com ** Radar, Satellite Data Show Iran Launch Failed See: http://www.aviationweek.com/aw/generic/story.jsp?id=news/FAIL08198.xml&headline= Radar,%20Satellite%20Data%20Show%20Iran%20Launch%20Failed&channel=defense > Radar, Satellite Data Show Iran Launch Failed > > See: > > http://www.aviationweek.com/aw/generic/story.jsp?id=news/FAIL08198.xml&headline= Radar,%20Satellite%20Data%20Show%20Iran%20Launch%20Failed&channel=defense Surprise, surprise... >> Radar, Satellite Data Show Iran Launch Failed >> [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > >Surprise, surprise... ...But then again, did you really think a Skudnik was on their agenda.
