UK Prime Minister Gordon Brown said the missile launch could boost the likelihood of further sanctions against Iran. "This is a matter of serious concern to the international community and it does make the case for us moving further on sanctions," he said.
The French Foreign Ministry said the launch was "very worrying".
"A test of this kind can only strengthen the international community's worries at a time that Iran is also developing a nuclear programme with no identifiable civil objective in violation of five United Nations Security Council resolutions," spokesman Bernard Valero said.
In September, Iran was heavily criticised after testing its Sajjil and Shahab missiles which could travel 2,000km (1,243 miles).
Those tests came just weeks after Iran revealed the existence of a previously secret nuclear facility in the mountains near the city of Qom.
The article states that the maximum missile range of the Shahab-3b is 2,500 km. A kilometer is 5/8 of a mile, so the range of this missile is 1,562 miles. Iran is boasting that this missile will hit any target in Israel. It also has capabilities of reaching western Europe. Do we need to elaborate further?
Yes,we do. Eretz Israel (The Nation of Israel) is here to stay. Adonai will not allow the people of the book to be removed from Israel again. THIS IS SCRIPTURAL. If you need the Scriptural references, they are available.
