Iran 'Modifies' Pictures of Missile Test
Initial photos of the Iranian missile test showed only three of the four missile launching. The fourth was still on its launch vehicle, and apparently a dud. But images circulated later by the government and the official state run news paper showed all four missiles in flight. The new image also has the tell tale signs of a bad Photoshop job. The new missile is clearly copy-and-pasted from its neighbor to the left and the bottom of the plume of smoke is just off some how. But the biggest give away is the new slightly bluer sky that surrounds the once failed missile, cutting through the haze in the sky.

this is pretty stupid article
what difference does it make
if war breaksout, you have thousands of missiles fired from one side and few bombs from other and hell will break loose
oil will go up to 300 +
Middle East on fire
you guys are talking about a photo
If you think Iran will back out, I say they won't
Israel can't fight Iran. They are too small
their forces are not that many
it would be an air war
missiles against missles
then US has to step in
with stretched armed foreces
Don't think there is a magic in it
Iranians will fight in Iraq, Afghanistan, Lebonan, and the golf
So can we afford this?
Or are we better to stay with diplomacy?

Does anybody think Bush might nuke Iran? Seems far-fetched, given that we don't want them having nukes. But, with Bush running out of time before he leaves office, might he do something that stupid? Is it really that impossible to imagine?

If Iran gets nukes, they WILL use them on Israel. Israel already HAS nukes: If WE don't stop Iran from getting nukes, what do you think Israel MUST do?

Seems like the site is anti-iranian...
They didn't present their opinion as a speculation, they presented it as a hard fact!?

So... only three out of four missles will fly. And of that, how many will hit their target? Now then, if they launch a thousand missles, only a few will hit their intended target, right? I feel better already. Thank you. I wonder about the payloads, though. Tell me a little more about that.

What Iran needs more than anything right now is something to lose. We've backed it into a corner and given it few options. Iran needs to be plugged into the global economy. Once its people are engaged economically, and it will have plenty of internal motivation to play better with others.

Mr. O'Brein,
Please,as a supposed "journalist", refrain from using phrases such as 'some how". Additionally, the assessment of how it was "cut-and-pasted" is incorrect. Please limit your comments to areas of "expertice".....if there are any.

Iran's missile tests are strictly for the purpose of propaganda and posturing for a war that they simply have no chance of winning.
Israel will spank Iran if hostilities commence.
Currently, there are two US NAVY AIRCRAFT CARRIER BATTLE GROUPS operating in the Persian Gulf. D'Jya ever notice how the Iranian Navy doesn't board US Vessels? They can't. The US NAVY is capable of delivering unbelievable firepower if need be.
Ahmadinejad knows this, and he is scared.
Iran reminds me of a skinny drunk guy who talks himself into provoking a fight that he has no chance of winning...
If Obama is elected, Iran's posturing will turn to action as they become emboldened by the same type of weakness that prevailed during the Jimmy Carter Administration.
Carter made Amadinejad in 1979-1980.
McCain? McCain scares the hell out of our enemies.
