You are correct boomer65! That's why I mentioned about hitting the U.S. I believe Israel would have no problem hitting Africa or Europe if it desired with its current nuclear missiles. India probably could make an intercontinental missile if it wanted but its military missiles at this time are only designed to hit Pakistan (and probably China). Pakistan does not have the technology today to hit beyond Asia with missiles (at least that's the last I read or heard).

Usually these medium range missiles are referred to as IRBM(intermediate range ballistic missiles) or TBM(theatre ballistic missiles). The Scud of the Gulf War or the V-2 of World War II are perfect examples.
