Iran’s president unveiled an upgraded version of one of its
short-range surface-to-surface ballistic missiles Tuesday, amid a report
that a top Israeli national security adviser met with a prominent rabbi
hoping to persuade him in favor of an attack on Iran's nuclear program.

The upgraded version of the missile was revealed just weeks after it was test-fired, the country's state-media reported.
At the ceremony for Fateh-110, or Conqueror, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad told
a group of defense officials that Iran wants to advance its defense
technology "not in an aggressive context, but as a deterrence."
"We do not seek it for conquest, domination of neighboring countries
and the world. We do not want it because of defiance," said Ahmadinejad,
according to state TV.

If Obama is returned to office, I think Israel will not likely engage Iran by itself. If the threat of Iran's nuclear program is real, the U.S. would probably give "support" such as bombs, air surveillance, etc. but not engage boots on the ground. We cannot afford to engage in another decades long war in behalf of Israel's presence in the Mideast.
