This is one of the best articles I've ever read!
MSNBC : Some fear Iran's space program is hostile
In the first paragraph, it explains who is concerned with the issue: "Europe and the United States.
It also concludes that the main conflict is Western "Fear" (of long-range missiles) VS Tehran's "Peaceful" Reassurance.
The article continues then to Iran's motives and outside speculation, but without giving them descriptively.
Immediately, a sub-story is created that explains the International and American concern with the space program quickly becoming a secret weapons program.
After that sub-story, another follows, explaining the imminent technological advancements similar to the great military power of the United States.
The next sub-story explains the proposed "evidence" of a threat to Europe. It later pulls into reality that the development of the high-range missile potential was not conclusive.
The subsequent sub-story finally explains what Iran's reasons are for the space program. Iranian officials also compared their ambitions similar to the American satellite uses in Afghanistan and Iraq. Then there is disagreement in how imminent the missile successes will come to Iran: One side says that it will come soon, the other views it as a "bluff"
Finally comes the bottom line: Will this "making Iran bigger" be an excuse to attack Iran? And if not, Iran will inevitably produce the missiles, so the threat will not disappear.
Personally, I think it is illogical to think that Iran could only have the equivalent technology as the 1950s United States. It's not like they're beating rocks together... They have advanced computers, military advancements, and a lot of other things that the rest of the civilized world shares.
But let's not be so paranoid that Iran might be making a missile... IT'S GOING TO HEPPEN ANYWAYS. What the United States and Europe need to do is not start another endless war, but to build a new branch (if there isn't one already) of military which is concerned with de-activates missile launches (like satellite-guided missile jamming).

Interesting. I never knew that this was going on. But i agree with you please no more wars. That is the last thing that this country needs. We, just like you said need to be prepred for anything if anything were to occure.
Well, I agree that we should not underestimate the country, but not go completely nuts. Besides, we can barely handle Iraq and they were practically beating rocks together, as you put it. I don't know- I unfortunately turn a blind eye to these kind of articles.
