When?
That's the only question that's left, as in, "when will the world be forced to confront Iran militarily?" I say "be forced to" deliberately, because it is clear the world doesn't have the will to deal with the threat Iran is projecting. Iran has funded terrorism for years, it has a nuclear program, and it is now pointedly telling the world that it has advanced missiles and torpedoes that pose a significant threat to other nations. This would of great concern even if Iran wasn't a nation with a history of taking hostages, sponsoring terror, and holding the world's economy hostage via its oil supply. Iran is a nation with that history, though, and while optimists of the world hold out hope that Iran is just posturing for a place at the table with other world powers, it isn't terribly likely that Iran won't use their new toys. For the rest of us, it is frightening to think of what Iran might do before the world has the stomach to deal with this problem.
