State Dept. Official Warns of Iran Threat
(AP/Washington Post) - Paula DeSutter, assistant secretary of state for verification and compliance, told the U.S.-Israel Joint Parliamentary Committee in Washington Wednesday that Iran is likely to develop missiles capable of reaching the U.S. or Western Europe.
