Iran: We'll fire 150,000 missiles at Israel if attacked

I'd venture to say that if Iran indeed had 150,000 missiles that could hit Israel (and nearly or completely destroy it), there would have been war long ago.

Disagree, Iran has not been externally aggressive in a very very long time.....I know this is off topic, but what is 'our' real problem with Iran, they are a democratic society.....We have kinda used our, 'taking out dictators' thing a bit much...We don't have that with this, nor have they actually attacked anyone. What is the rational exactly?

Besides oil...why do we care? If we attack, that will be proof enough that all the crap the powers have feed us is complete bunk. If Iran is attacked, it will be for nothing other than money, because it sure isn't because of ideology or imminent threat.

My point was there would be war because Israel would clearly not stand for 150,000 missiles that could destroy them, and would probably have attacked Iran long ago, WAY before Iran had this kind of capability.

I gotcha, misunderstood your point....I agree with you completely on that, they would not have let that threat hang.

Here is a news report from June this year

Iran's Revolutionary Guards tested 14 missiles on Tuesday, the second day of war games intended a show of strength to the Islamic Republic's enemies in Israel and Washington.

The Iranian-made surface-to-surface missiles, with a maximum range of 2,000 km (1,250 miles), were fired simultaneously at a single target, the official IRNA news agency reported.

So it would seem that Iran does have the range and are producing their own

long range missiles.

All those "mother of all" statements that come out of the middle east and people are wondering if Iran has that many missiles. Of course it doesn't. Plus the statement from Iran isn't for us it's for the people in Iran.

So you've no not heard of Iran funding and training terrorists? They've been doing it for years.

I could be wrong, but I would think it is safe to say Iran would only be able to get a few thousand at most up in the air before they were completely leveled.

If they fired 150,000 missles all at once, and aimed them at tiny little Israel, would that even be possible to do without them colliding in mid air? And what makes them think they'd have a chance at shooting off a couple more rounds?

Furthermore, why is everyone so interested in the place known as Eye-Ran?

and we (the US) haven't done the same? We trained, supported, and funded the biggest terrorist of all time (so we say)....Osama to fight USSR....Guess that would have actually given the soviet union an excuse to attack us, using today's validations.

And that’s reason to kill their innocent civilians.

So, um, is Iran going to launch a bunch of missiles at Israel if attacked or Turkey if attacked?

It seems to me that they're having a hard time making up their minds.

That's not the question you asked. You asked what they'd done and you've been informed. Perhaps you shouldn't be suprised if the question you asked is answerd. Perhaps you should have asked if funding terrorists is a good reason for the west to put Iran civilians at risk.

How can you expect people to anwser a question you don't ask

Who exactly are you talking to?

Oh, I understand, you didn't actually check to see who said what...that wasn't my response....~sigh~....I actually expected that from someone that is supporting an attack on Iran, be sure to double check your party tag lines so not to contradict yourself.

I think you americans need to remember this....not every country goes on about its army 24/7. Who knows what Iran have?? Why provoke them in the first place??

Do you really think china has an army not as well equipped as yours?? Did you read it in a book/article written by an american?? Just because they dont shout it from the rooftops like yourselves doesnt mean they arent packing some seriously deadly weaponry.

Here in the west we like to show how powerful we are by splashing stories about our military all over the news. This keeps the people feeling "safe" from all the terrorists...everywhere except UK and USA of course...we could never be so naughty to go around killing innocent people for political/monetary gain could we...lol.

Good on Iran for not backing down to the USA.....hopefully this will make the USA look at its policies on inciting war...we all know they have them And stop them invading and murdering thousands of people each year.

If a city the size of london took a barrage of even 50 missiles, there would be 10s of thousands dead, if not hundreds of thousands.

150,000 missiles isnt really a lot is it. How many millions of missiles do the USA have?? How many do china and russia have?? Im pretty sure the combined power of Iran, Russia and China far outweighs the US army.

Im not hating on you americans, im just trying to open your eyes to the propaganda you endure on an hourly basis. The USA is not the be all and end all...there are equally as powerful nations, but they didnt decide they were the world police.

Oh Nice Fox News tactic....when faced with an example where it contradicts your point, ignore it and push it aside....Nicely done. Especially the fact that you are crediting one person with saying something that another person actually said....This thread might be done for you, try another one because you have lost complete credibility in your contentions and retorts.

The only way Iran could bring to bear 150,000 missiles directly on Israel is with a secret pact with China/Syria/Lebanon/Russia/North Korea.

Of course, I would not be surprised if there is one. The world will one day HAVE to stop American warmongering, or face "freedom" American style. Which means you sign up to be raped and have your ruler assassinated.

Zero hate, but if you are going to bother with a snide comment, make sure it is properly aimed, because you set the nasty tone.

edit-oh and another nicely placed Fox news tactic, 'try to turn it around that the other guy is the hateful, spiteful, closed minded individual'....come on, seriously, if you can't prep good thoughtful points to support your position.....don't post.

WOW, are you really that closed minded that you can't correlate the concepts? I am seriously impressed. You are the one that supported the attack because they are funding and training terrorists....OKAY, Fine, then the soviets had a Right to attack the US because we did the same.....but DID THEY...No. they did not. Seriously, if you can't defend your point, stop talking.
