Counter THRAET to Iran

Fox News: Reports on the missile defence sales to " Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Bahrain and Kuwait ". These sales will give comfort to the allies of the United States and counter the threat from Iran, the true pace of Iran's nuclear development is still open to debate, it seems that the immediate threat is to the neighbours of Iran. Also if Iran was ever mad enough to attack the USA with a nuclear weapon the US would wipe Iran from the face of the earth, its that simple. Thus the growing tensions will be in the Middle East, will Israel see that President Obama will protect them, that the missiles sales will be a counter to Iran and also give Israel some second thoughts about attacking Iran. Lets be honest folks, we need more on the ground intelligence from MI6 and the CIA as to the present level of Iran's threat to Western security. At present it seems that the immediate threat is local, but local can go global these days; the banking crisis; thus what was a local threat yesterday become a world threat the next day, lets recall Iran can buy the information it needs to become a member the nuclear club, the seller is of course North Korea.
