Iran marks "Sacred Defense Week" (video)

Story here.

Besides goose stepping soldiers what did we see?  How about a new ballistic missile with a 2000 mile range capable of carrying multiple reentry vehicles? via Press TV.

The ballistic missile, which has a range of 2000 kilometers, is capable of carrying multiple warheads, said Brigadier General Amir Ali Hajizadeh, a senior commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) Aerospace Division.

"As it was observed, the missile has become smaller in size and more tactical and it will be operational in the near future," he told reporters on the sidelines of the parades.

Is it just me or does it seem like the Iranians are just doing it backwards.

Let's make some assumptions.

1.  Let's assume that they are EXTREMELY close to being able to produce a nuclear weapon.

2.  Let's assume that they have confidence in that weapon working properly.

3.  Wouldn't it make sense that if they were able to get a treaty with the West that they would pivot toward missile tech because they've already accomplished the goal that the sanctions were designed to halt?

I am more convinced than ever that the Iranians played the Obama Admin like a fiddle.
