Right Change: Iran Unveils New Missiles, Promises Attacks on the West

Minus the economy, the biggest threat to our democracy is the threat of terrorism. Iran has been dubbed as the top threat to the United States and our ally, Israel and the latest reports prove why. So far, President Obama has gotten by with not having to take a stand before the elections when it comes to Iran, but with their latest declaration of destroying Israel as well as the West, he may just have to.

Israel has unveiled upgrades to six weapons including a more accurate short-range missile and a more powerful naval engine. This unveiling was presented at a ceremony attended by President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and Defence Minister Ahmad Vahidi:

“Israel has said it is considering air strikes on Iran's nuclear sites if the Islamic Republic does not resolve Western fears it is developing the means to produce atomic weapons, something the Islamic Republic denies.

Iran says it could hit Israel and U.S. bases in the region if it comes under attack.

It has also threatened to block the Strait of Hormuz, the neck of the Gulf through which 40 percent of the world's sea-borne oil exports pass. Such a move would probably invite a military response from the United States.

Ahmadinejad said on Tuesday that Iran's military advances are purely for defensive purposes and should not be taken as a threat, but said they would dissuade world powers from imposing their will on Iran.

"Defensive advances are meant to defend human integrity, and are not meant to be offensive moves toward others," Ahmadinejad said, according to Mehr news agency.

"I have no doubt that our defensive capabilities can stand up to bullying and put a halt to their plans."

Oh really, Ahmadinejad? That’s funny because declaring that you are going to blow Israel, the tumor, off the face of the earth is pretty offensive. The latest report shows that the Supreme Leader of Iran has called for fresh terror attack on the West:

“According to Western intelligence officials, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei gave the order to the elite Quds Force unit following a recent emergency meeting of Iran's National Security Council in Tehran held to discuss a specially-commissioned report into the implications for Iran of the Assad regime's overthrow.

Damascus is Iran's most important regional ally, and the survival of the Assad regime is regarded as vital to sustaining the Iranian-backed Hizbollah militia which controls southern Lebanon.

The report, which was personally commissioned by Mr Khamenei, concluded that Iran's national interests were being threatened by a combination of the U.N. sanctions imposed over Iran's nuclear programme and the West's continuing support for Syrian opposition groups attempting to overthrow the Syrian government.

Intelligence officials say the report concludes that Iran "cannot be passive" to the new threats posed to its national security, and warns that Western support for Syrian opposition groups was placing Iran's "resistance alliance" in jeopardy, and could seriously disrupt Iran's access to Hizbollah in Lebanon.

It advised that the Iranian regime should demonstrate to the West that there were "red lines" over what it would accept in Syria, and that a warning should be sent to "America, the Zionists, Britain, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and others that they cannot act with impunity in Syria and elsewhere in the region."

While President Obama apologizes for America and refuses to stand up to Iran, the tyrant ruled nation is plotting terrorist attacks and building up their nuclear program against us. We must elect leaders who are committed to keeping America safe and who are unafraid to stand up to Iran.
