Is this coincidental that Iran tested a missile today, the same week when Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu met US President Obama? Or is it Iran sending any special warning alarms to these countries and the world?

U.S. government officials confirmed that Iran launched a missile with a range of around 2,000 km (1,200 miles) Wednesday. The range of the surface-to-surface Sejil 2 missile would be almost as far as another Iranian missile, Shahab 3, and military analysts say it could enable Iran to reach Israel and U.S. bases in the Gulf (Mideast).

According to Associated Press, "One official says it appears the test was a success — that is, that Tehran succeeded in launching a medium-range missile. A second official said only that the U.S. was able to detect the launch and was looking further into details. They both spoke on condition of anonymity Wednesday because they were not authorized to speak on the record."

Tehran says it test-fired a new advanced missile which is capable of reaching Israel and U.S. Mideast bases. If this is true, what is the intention of Iran President President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad saying that the Islamic state could send any attacker "to hell" ???.
