Pentagon: Iran Will Soon Be Able to Attack Europe
[PoliGazette-Netherlands] Michael van der Galien - Speaking in the Czech Republic, Pentagon official Lt. Gen. Henry A. Obering III told the country's Parliament that it would not take long before Iran will be able to strike against every single European country. The U.S. too would be within reach of Iranian missiles in five to six years, Obering said. French intelligence officials believe that Iran will be able to build its first nuclear bomb in the summer of 2009. That means that one year from now, Iran will be able to destroy an entire European city by just one strike. Not only would this put Europe and later the U.S. at risk, it would also dramatically alter the balance in the region.
