#Iran UN Security Council must take tough stand on Iran's ballistic missile test

While world powers discuss this clear violation of the spirit of the nuclear deal and affront to U.N. resolutions, two stark realities should not be forgotten. First, the latest episode shows that Iran has no intention to become a peaceful member of the international community, as was hoped by former President Barack Obama and other 
proponents of the nuclear deal and the appeasement policy toward Tehran.
