Don't mix scientific achievements with your Israeli propaganda. The achievements are done by Iranian people not by the regime. Yes it's funded by the regime & they may gain from it by building a defensive deterrent against Israeli/US attacks but Iranians also benefit by saving their country against destruction. You can't deny that 20 years ago we couldn't send a "Baadbaadak' 30 feet above our heads and now we have satellites in space without western help. So we're 50 years behind, at least we're running on track to catch up. Do you prefer us to sit in the shade, have tea and watch others do it instead? or you must think we should jump from "nothing" to "Top-notch 22nd century space technology!"  Stop being a whiner. As Kennedy used to say "Ask not what your country has done for you, ask what you have done for your country".

Don't worry about mullahs getting nukes either, as dumb as they are, they know enough not to mess with countries owning 400 to 9000 nukes.

khali bandi, iranian style

The guys says, "we have much much better capabilities.  we can send bigger objects into the orbit, but that is not what we aim to do'.  Right off the bat you know the akhondzadeh is lying.  Iranians have a knack for making things bigger and better than they really are.  The rocket is no more that the toy rockets Goddard used to experiemnt with back in thr 1920's and any one can create the cartoonish images using Autodesk.  So, no i dont buy that iran has any capability.  They have copied decades old technology and at best it can send a polaroid to space,

Islamist Rapist Minister

by Fred on Fri Jul 01, 2011 09:08 AM PDT

Is this Defense Minister “General Vahidi” the same Islamist Rapist who had to hightail it out of Bolivia recently for being wanted as a suspect in terrorist attack in Argentina?

BTW, looks like the messianic Islamist Rapists are testing their  long-range nuke delivery missile.
