The death drones won’t make the difference in the Persian Gulf, and the time spent talking about it has brought Iran that much closer to its coveted atomic bombs.Honeybee & Beekeeper Photographs Using Our ImagesĪll photographs on the Talking With Bees website are licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International License. The Iranians know this, and are working hard to keep us distracted with false offers of compromises and bluster about death drones. Even if they never intend to use such weapons - and that’s a pretty big if - the mere fact of possessing them would give Iran all the cover it needed to push its agenda as hard as it wanted, free of the risk of a limited strike by its more powerful, more advanced enemies. The only issue that matters with Iran’s military is its drive to build nuclear weapons and the missiles that could carry them to Tel Aviv and beyond. Would any country, even one as powerful as America or Israel, dare attack Iran if there was a risk of nuclear retaliation? The mullahs don’t think so … and they’re probably right. But an Iranian nuclear weapon? That would change the game. Iran could build drones til the proverbial cows came home, but that wouldn’t do anything to slow down a full American air campaign or a surprise Israeli attack. While new submarines and bomber-drones might make life a bit more interesting for Iran’s Arab neighbours and complicate any possible U.S/Israeli attack, none of these new systems will in any meaningful way impact the balance of power in the region. Everything else, from new weapons at home to supporting terror abroad, is just window dressing. The only game in town is Iran’s race for a nuclear bomb. Iran’s submarines and drones don’t matter, and Ahmadinejad knows it. All of these signs appear ominous, especially given the persistent speculation that the United States, or more probably Israel, is considering a pre-emptive strike on Iran to curtail its nuclear ambitions. Iran recently announced the completion of several new light submarines, is seeking sophisticated Russian air-defence missiles and last week test-fired a new model of ballistic missile. This makes it the first combat-capable drone to be built in Iran, and it is being touted by Tehran as yet another sign of its increasing military sophistication. The drone, which the Iranians have formally christened the Karrar (which apparently means “Striker”) is domestically built, has a reported 1,000-km range and can carry up to 500 pounds of bombs and/or missiles.
