http://www.euronews.net/ Iran's senior navy commander is denying media reports that the country test-fired long-range missiles during a drill in Saturday in the Persian Gulf.




Mahmoud Mousavi told Iran's English language Press TV that the missiles will be launched in the coming days.




Earlier the semi-official Fars news agency had reported that the weapons had already been launched.




The military activity is being closely observed by Washington.

  • israel can have nukes but iran cant

    israel can hold exercises but iran cant

    WTF?

  • i think that it is the US and EU who are raising the tensions by threatening Iran with

    1) War,

    2) Further Sanctions and

    3) Isolation.

    Although my believes are anti thetical to those of the Iranian regime and hope it is brought to its knees I sincerely believe that the regime is rightly acting in self defense.

    Meanwhile I am disgusted by the media who always seem to portray facts in a manner to protect the integrity of our governments instead of plainly stating facts.

    There is no Arabian Gulf.

    It's been called the Persian Gulf forever.

  • @SaintMeran

    Do you reckon that might work for Americans as well?

  • Where is is Iran going to test its military equipment other than in its own gulf.

    It's the US presence that causes tension. Not the presence of the people who live there.

  • WELL I AM USA PEOPLE, AND I SAY ,IF YOU FLONT YOUR NEW NUKE POWER THE WAY IRAN IS DOING IT WOULD FREAKE OUT ENYONE , IRAN DOSE HAVE THE RIGHT TO DEFEND IT SELF, BUT FLONTING THE NUKE STUFF IS A CONSERN FOR EVERYONE, I DONT KNOW WHY THE USA GOVERMENT IS DOING THIS BUT USA HAS ARIGHT TO BE CONCERND ALSO, MY OPINION IS JUST ONE SIMPLE MANS VIEW
