However, the US is ballz deep now, he might have no option - the guy has painted himself into a corner. Iran used an intermediate range ballistic missile to strike Diego Garcia. Iran does possess platforms that could carry a nuclear warhead - however, presently Iran lacks the technical ability to miniaturize such a warhead...........no question who the target would be with the limited range of the IRBM. No, Iran does not possess Inter-Continental-Ballistic-Missiles. The R&D for ICBM is very transparent - test firing? NK's Hwasong-18 ICBM development was tracked throughout. (downrange launches) HK developed the ability to miniaturize the Nuke warhead about the same time as the successful test shots. The H18 has the capability to strike any US Continental target with a nuke warhead. All (Global) weapon states except Pakistan and NK are confirmed to have deployed MIRV missile systems. North Korea and Iran maintain a cooperative and strategic relationship wrt missile development. I agree , he has painted himself into a corner, but he is really finding out who is an allied and who is not... Iran has tested an ICBM with a 10,000 km range, so it does have ICBM capability all it really needs is one to have a voice on the worlds stage....next is a war head, even a dirty bomb would be very destructive... https://www.msn.com/en-in/news/world/meet-khorramshahr-5-irans-ultra-long-range-icbm-capable-of-striking-the-us-has-a-range-of/ar-AA1Ndys1 https://www.armyrecognition.com/news/army-news/2025/iran-claims-new-10-000-km-range-intercontinental-ballistic-missile-capable-of-reaching-united-states Quote We, the willing, led by the unknowing, are doing the impossible for the ungrateful. We have now done so much for so long with so little, we are now capable of doing anything with nothing.

No question they're beavering away tho - likely more so now. Quote

In an interview on state-run IRIB television, senior Iranian MP Mohsen Zangeneh said that Tehran had tested its first ICBM which is one of the most advanced missiles the country has produced. The Iranian state-affiliated Tasnim News Agency reported on November 7, 2025, that Iran’s newest intercontinental ballistic missile is “almost ready for service,” citing unnamed defense sources.

No doubt they did - promote the idea of possessing ICBM - Baghdad bob syndrome. The reason for Iran's pursuit of this advanced technology is to have an Aegis against conventional attack? The regime would without a doubt promote this capability - propaganda works? Where's the evidence of successful launch, we're talking of taking test shots tens-of-thousands of miles down range - a projectile that travels into space for the majority of its trajectory and re-enters the atmosphere at incredible speeds - making it difficult (impossible) to intercept in terminal flight. Iran would be incredibly foolish to install a cobbled, miniaturized nuke warhead onto a prototype ICBM platform for an attack .............. anywhere - the launch would be detected immediately (most vulnerable) and Iran would cease to exist. During the 2008 Dem primary, then-Senator Hildebeest warned that the US would use overwhelming force if Iran launched a nuke attack on Israel. 'If I'm president, we will attack Iran' and that, 'Iran will be 'totally obliterated' in response to such an attack. I believe the dumb beotch meant it - on the other hand she would have been far too intelligent to launch something akin to 'Epic Fury' .......... much to Israel's chagrin.

The Americans don’t seem to understand the way the world is shifting because of it. Their credibility is in peril.
