I've Been Thinking:

Iran has just converted one of their 30-ton ballistic missiles into a satellite launcher.
This is an enormous step in Iran's weapons and space technology.

Only a handful of nations in the world have satellite technology.
And Iran has already launched 2 satellites.
First time it was a co-operative launch effort between Iran and the Soviets.
This time Iran flew solo launching a 100% made and manufactured in Iran "bird" (satellite).

When you have the ability to launch your own system then - literally -the sky is the limit.
We now know that the Iranians have the ability to see anything, hear everything and target anywhere.
The more satellites you own, the more you see.
That is a scary thought.

Yes, Chicken Little, the sky truly is falling.
