After consulting with Brian from snapped shot, seeing the high res photos he was able to get, I was pretty much convinced he was correct in that the missile was real, as was the launch.

There is certainly some anxiety about Iran developing a nuclear bomb creation ability of their own. What would they do with it? Would they use it responsibly as a deterent, like France has always done with its tiny nuclear weapons stockpile? Or, will they use them against Israel? Or another Middle Eastern country? Europe? America? […]
