Israel dismisses Iran’s long-range missile message

The World

Again today, the Iranian State press is reporting the Iranian Revolutionary Guard is test-firing missiles. Yesterday, Iran fired at least nine missiles…. which state officials boasted could hit Israel. They also said they are meant to show Iran’s readiness to strike back if attacked by the United States or Israel. The tests triggered swift reactions in diplomatic circles and nervousness in the world economy. Guest: Kalev Ben-David, Jerusalem Post
