Report: Iran Has Ballistic Missile That Poses Threat to United States

Iran has produced an intercontinental ballistic missile — an act that poses a threat to the United States due to its expanded range, according to a report.
The Jerusalem Post reports that Iran has a missile measuring 27 meters in length (88.5 feet) on a launch pad just outside its capital city of Tehran. The missile had never before been seen in public, reports the Post.
"The missile and the launch pad indicate that Iran's ballistic missile program, which is an integral part of its nuclear weapons program, is moving forward at full throttle," the Post writes.
"The expanded range of Iran's ballistic missile program as indicated by the satellite imagery makes clear that its nuclear weapons program is not merely a threat to Israel, or to Israel and Europe. It is a direct threat to the United States, as well," according to the newspaper.
The missile, according to the report, was spotted during a television broadcast on Israel's Channel 2. The broadcast included images of Iran taken from a satellite that was launched last year, and it showed several sites that were recently built for missiles.
One such site was a launch facility outside of Tehran, which was where the newly discovered missile was discovered.
The facility would be capable of launching an ICBM missile or a rocket into space.

Iran has apparently produced an intercontinental ballistic missile whose range far exceeds the distance between Iran and Israel, and between Iran and Europe.
On Wednesday night, Channel 2 showed satellite imagery taken by Israel’s Eros-B satellite that was launched last April. The imagery showed new missile-related sites that Iran recently constructed just outside Tehran. One facility is a missile launch site, capable of sending a rocket into space or of firing an ICBM.
On the launch pad was a new 27-meter long missile, never seen before.
