Iran: We'll introduce missile against Iron Dome
2012-07-02
As European oil embargo kicks in, Tehran announces three-day surface-to-surface missile drill. Revolutionary Guards general: We'll soon launch missile that can hit Iron Dome defense system

Gen. Ami Ali Hajizadeh, chief of the Revolutionary Guards' airspace unit, added that Iran will soon introduce a new missile that can also penetrate the Iron Dome missile defense system, threatening that if Israel plans any attack on Iran's nuclear facilities, "They will provide us a reason to remove Israel from the earth."
 
He said Israel is not capable of attacking Iran "since it was defeated by Hezbollah" in 2006.

However,
a hangover is the wrath of grapes...
in a conflicting report, Fars new agency quoted Hajizadeh as saying that the range of the new missile is only 300 kilometers.
 
Iran has reportedly a few hundred surface-to-surface missiles with a range of approximately 2,000 kilometers (1,200 miles), which can reach Israel, southern Europe and other states in the Persian Gulf, where US maintains military bases.

Nope. It was defeated by George's girl Friday.
