Iran explosion at Tehran military base

[Jimbuna]

Let the speculation begin :hmmm:


A huge explosion has rocked a military base west of Iran's capital, Tehran, officials say.
Several people were killed after the blast inside a Revolutionary Guards weapons depot, according to the semi-official Fars news agency, but this has not been confirmed.
Windows in nearby buildings have been shattered and the blast was heard in central Tehran, 40 km (25 miles) away.

Israel? How come you can never play nice with the toys Uncle Sam gives you?

When Crazy Mahmoud retaliates it will be USA Britain and France cleaning up your mess as always.

When can we send them to their room and take away the toys?

Jumping the gun, assuming am I?

No they are known for blatant acts of war, then hiding behind Captain America. They are proud of it.

Ever seen one of them little dogs, that yip, yip,yip and bite. The minute you raise your foot to kick it, the old broad who owns it is giving you filthy looks. You know the kinda dog, a thousand times braver than it's size dictates.
You know you can squash it, but that damn old lady is staring at you, threatening you with sanctions.

Is there anything more you want to tell...did the old lady tell you that size doesn't matter too.

It looks like ther were 17 deaths and the blast occurred when weapons were being moved inside a Revolutionary Guards depot.

More reasons not to trust them with nuclear weapons :yep:

Surely the contrary? That way, if they ever try to launch at Israel, they'll blow themselves up! :03:

I can imagine in the case of that event there will be plenty out there who will refuse to believe Israels claims of innocence :DL

So any country that has accidents involving munitions should not be allowed to have nuclear weapons? :06:

Yes! We'd have a nuke-free world within a couple of days! :DL

[Jimbuna]

Or no world at all if all the accidents involved nuclear weapons :o

So, like in so many other modern day news stories ...

We get the truth the second or third round ... :yep:

growing pains for their ICBM program


TEHRAN — A mysterious explosion (http://www.washingtonpost.com/world/middle_east/blast-at-revolutionary-guard-base-kills-15/2011/11/12/gIQAtML7EN_story.html) at an Iranian military base last week was caused when a test of an experimental intercontinental ballistic missile failed, the brother of a senior Revolutionary Guard Corps commander who was killed in the incident said Saturday.
The commander, Gen. Hassan Tehrani Moqadam, was killed Nov. 12, along with 20 other members of the elite corps, at a site 25 miles southwest of Tehran that officials have described as one of the Islamic Republic’s main missile bases. At his funeral, Moqadam was called the “founder” of Iran’s missile program.
