That is why I don't think war with them is necessary at this time.

We are not just concerned about missiles. We are concerned about any kind of nuclear weapon device getting into the hands of Al Qaeda or another such irrational psycho die for Allah network. It is a very real threat. 10-15 years will end up becoming the present. We have to do what it takes to make sure Iran does not end up with nukes in that time. If that means war in 5-8 years, then that is the route we will have to take.
