150,000 Iran Missiles Awaiting Israel
http://www.presstv.ir/detail/212486.html
"Defense Minister Brigadier General Ahmad Vahidi says Iran will teach Israel a good lesson if the entity tries to attack the Islamic Republic. 'The enemy must answer this question, if it attacks Iran, for how long a battle and losing how many of its warships and vessels has it prepareed itself?
Why is the Zionist regime making threats against Iran? How many missiles have they prepared themselves for?'
The United States and Israel have repeatedly threatened Tehran with the 'option' of a military strike, based on the allegation that Iran's nuclear work may consist of a covert military agenda.
Iran has refuted the allegation, saying that as a signatory to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and a member of the IAEA, it has the right to develop and acquire nuclear-technology for peaceful purposes.
While Israel refuses to allow inspections of its nuclear facilities or to join the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty based on its policy of nuclear ambiguity, Iran has been subjected to snap International Atomic Energy inspections due to its policy of nuclear transparency.
Israel recently tested a new long-range missile capable of carrying nuclear warheads.
Paradoxically, Israel's new nuke-capable missile which can target many parts of the globe, is not considered a threat in the eyes of the West."

The report added that US President Barack Obama's preoccupation with the presidential elections and Obama's fear of the Jewish right has helped Netanyahu in this regard.
'the death certificate of negotiations based on the two-state solution is a badge of shame for Israeli society. It's hard to understand how a society that has so impressively brought social justice to the top of the agenda has fallen victim to our nationalist-religious leaders' criminal ploy and the irresponsible opposition's helplessness,' Haaretz concluded..."
