there is a yearning for close friendship with the people of Israel here in Iran, whish is of course, denied and hidden by the Islamic regime. this regime is not here to last. someday soon Israel and Iran will be close friends like pre 1979. amen to that!

they can hit them from afghanistan. iranians are certainly expecting an attack from the west ... and iranians will never throw missiles after an american attack backed by all western countries. I hope they will do it before it s too late

What was the point of this whole denial? 1. The Sunday Times, did not say that Israel was going to attack in march, ...........they said Sharon had prepared for the POSSIBILITY of a strike on Iran's nuclear enrichment program. As any statesman would do. 2. Israel will not attack Iran. Even if she did, it would not halt Iran's nuclear ambitions. This is a fact that some people find hard to swallow. 3. It is only a matter of time before the Al Saud's , the Syrians, Iraqi's and others in the region go nuclear.

I'm aware that there are many good Persian people who despise their horrible government. While you live in misery the evil Ahmadinijad government represses you and tries to threaten us. Our problem is with the Iranian government and not with the Iranian people who look to us for friendship - i know there are many friends like you. Your message here is welcome.

what insane asylum let you out? war and death loving mongers such as yourself is why this world is a dangerous place. let me give you a quick course on why the us government will NEVER attack iran 1) we are getting are asses kicked in iraq. iraq had no army and no weapons, yet look at the debocle which is taking place. hundreds of billions of dollars, that could have gone to feeding the hungry, aids research, renewable energy development, fighting global warming, social health insurance. and thats just the economic side. the cost in lives is not worth it, with over 2000 soldiers dead, 30000 wounded or maimed, and over 100000 iraqis dead. what a great idea that was, and you're talking about a country which had no army and no weapons to fight. 2) iran has a massive, loyal army which is supplied with advanced russian weaponry. the only reason they dont cross into iraq and kick our ass in there is because we are installing a shia dominated, islamic republic as the puppet government. iran has more influence in iraqi politics than any other country including the us. we took out their enemy and are now installing their allies to power! this is a gift they couldn't have asked for. 3) the us public would NEVER support the invasion of iran. we have been fooled by an incompetent loon to invade one sovereign country. there will NEVER be support to go into iran militarily. the cost of war is way too high, and the public is sick of our boys dying and our hard earned tax dollars going 1/2 way across the world. even if iran attacked another country, the us public would not support our military invading iran. the only thing the iranians could do to compel the us public to support a war would be an attack, openly claimed on us soil. 4) the iraq war has reminded americans of vietnam and why war should never be taken lightly. the public is sickened by the lies which led us into war and the continuing lies which keep our kids dying. iraq and bush will go down in history as one of the most foolish and stupid endeavors in modern history. 5) war sucks go back to your asylum and play with your tiddlywinks. there is not going to be any more pre-emptive invasions of any country without a direct attack against the us. the public has awoken and will NEVER allow that to happen. and anyone who thinks otherwise is either living on another planet or is simply insane.

As you probably know, there are lots of Israelis of Persian extraction. We too hope for such a scenario. The problem is, not with the Iranian people, certainly, but with this maniacal government in Tehran.

[[So, here is the game plan. Israel (which really does have nuclear weapons and delivery systems), will scream that Iran (which does NOT have nuclear weapons of delivery systems) is a threat, and bomb the Iranian power station, just as they did Iraq's in 1981. Iran will have no choice but to respond to this obvious act of war. And who is sitting right on the path from Iran to Israel? YOUR KIDS. And it is evil enough that Israel has so arranged things they they will hide safely behind your dying kids, but the US Congress and the President are LETTING THEM DO IT. The Us Government is ALLOWING Israel to use American kids as a shield from behind which Israel will strike at her enemies with impunity. I wonder how much Israel paid the Congress for your kids' lives. ]]

I suggest you read more carefully before writings your book...I didnt read everything. I didnt say americans should INVADE Iran!! The Iranian people are far from deserving that. This is of course ridiculous as you said fairly but I suggest that they would ONLY BOMB in one attack their atomic facilities to prevent them from threatening american allies like Israel but also arab countries such as jordan egypt saudi arabia.If it works the region and Europe will be safer. I read that their new ICBM would probably reach Europe in the future ... Israel is in greater danger than any others and cant bomb their facilities. As you probably know the recent comment of the president from Iran is far from being very amical for Israel and therefore for the USA and allies. If nobody acts, the region will be the center of a very dangerous conflict that WILL require, this time , US and western interventions in Iran to secure their stupid OIL even if the US public and government dont want war.YOU are consuming every day with a far greater appetite than any others in the world some of the oil coming from here...US policy must follow your consumptions need and lifestyle. The USA should start in the future to take actions in order to slow down their gas emitions and their oil consumptions too.Ok It is probably a dream but this can only make the world better and the USA stronger. Moreover I was never for an invasion of Iraq and I will also never be for any invasions from the US military in the world.But without diplomatic actions -that failed- or without bombing attempts at last resort, Iran's leaders will threaten world peace. You are behaving as the leaders from iran were friends of peace lovers...I hope this time, I was clear for you. To Shayan I can just say AMEN too. Peace is the only solution. Maybe Israel and Iran are not governed by appropriate rulers to make peace but I am sure one day all ingredients will be united.

How stupid you are... The US government doesn't care about Israel. Their only interest ? >OIL. Israel is just a means or a carrier as England during the WW2. Be realistic and pragmatic. Do you know some countries that are not acting according to their national interests? In my point of view, in Human history, there was not a single one. But it is normal and I didnt complain about that. I simply regreat human lives are spent in many cases.Just remember the Vietnam war.

you are still insane. bomb iran? are you serious? bombing a sovereign country is illegal under international law without proper authorization. and surely the respectable UN, which hesitates to apply sanctions to iran, will NEVER approve the BOMBING of a sovereign country. it is not the job of the us to make the world right. there are worldly problems, no doubt. israel is threatened, no doubt. and unjustifiably. but the solutions do not lie in BOMBING people. that is not going to fix any problem. no matter what scenario you can describe, i can assure you that the BOMBING of another country will only make matters worse. the only way to solve these conflicts is through dialogue. and dialogue seems to be the only language that israel does not understand. which is why labor and paretz are the best thing that can happen to that belabored country.

Instead of trying to solve the Iranian treat, why don't we accept the offer to move to Europe, then we will be happy and so do Iran. Obviously, leave the Persian and Ethiopian jewish in Palast... oops, Israel.

You said ... bombing a sovereign country is illegal under international law without proper authorization. I says ... YOU... ARE INSANE.. JUST READ AMERICAN HISTORIES.Your government did already this in the past.You will understand that I was right, many countries were already bombed by US military without orders from the UN.The USA are known for UNILATERALISM and so they can bomb without UN orders still today. you said.... it is not the job of the us to make the world right I say ... The USA plays the policy of the big stick since WW2... learn once more american history.The world is remodeled after US decisions. you said... but the solutions do not lie in BOMBING people I says... read once more ...NOT PEOPLE but THE FACILITIES... OK? let the iranian people out of this please. you said... i can assure you that the BOMBING of another country will only make matters worse I says ... what if Israel didnt bomb iraqi facilities ...they will probably have the A bomb today and invade and annex koweit or every country they want, without being threatened anymore.... what if the american didnt intervene in the yugoslavian wars ...today the war would have caused a far greater deaths you said... the only way to solve these conflicts is through dialogue. I says .... are they not doing what you say?? but does Iran stop their nuclear ambitions?? the iranian government is doing exactly the contrary and is disobeying the UN ... Iran even stop the dialogue a moment you said... and dialogue seems to be the only language that israel does not understand i says ... Israel has always try to make peace with its neighbor and achieve peace with Jordan and Egypt and i hope the list would go on and extend to the entire world so as Israel can live peacefully. As for the palestinians, Barak was the only one to make counter offer .Arafat didnt make any counter proposal... SO WHO IS IN FAVOUR OF DIALOGUE? you said .... which is why labor and paretz are the best thing that can happen to that belabored country I says why not but it has no real link with what you said... We both are in favour of peace but when peace is threatened you sometimes have to act... if the USA didnt enter the WW2, how the world would be today?Americans like you were isolationists and for peace but war was declared against your country finally.Today the first world power cannot do the same mistakes. I understand your opinion and i thought the same way before but I changed my mind ..i understood how complicated it is. The world isnt so simple kid...

Number 7, you are an idiot and a fool. Israel's enemies are also America's enemies. If Iran gets nukes, you don't think they will hand them over to terrorists who will strike U.S. cities? Is your hatred for Jews that much that you would even endanger America just to see Israel wiped off the map?

you americans seem to be very good at it just by the way in fact youve fought and started more wars since the birth of your country than any other nation state. you must be very proud of yourselves. You invade people based on utter lies and nonsense. you carpet bomb civilians with your B2 bombers every day and call it collateral damage what a hypocrit you are you have a monopoly on war or something? you americans seem to be patenting just about everything these days

Okay folks, do not make the assumption that all Americans are one and the same. I am not wearing cowboy boots. I for one agree, Israel's enemies are America's enemies. We all hope for peace but prepare for war. I just might take a second to explain that many civilian Americans live in the thickest greatest bubble in the world - keep in mind many of their words are spoken from this bubble. (I'm sorry - OK - it's true.) 13 - Americans do not hate Jews. I for one have seen pictures of Israel's gorgeous models, I am anything but a Jew-hater. :) (that came out wrong) Please don't jump to conclusions. 14 - "you Americans seem to be patenting just about everything these days" ... Yes, this is true ... Best Regards to everyone ...

Shayan, that is such a relief to hear from normal people. All in good time - I hope.

Iran has been violating the Nuclear Non-proliferation treaty for years, sponsoring terrorist attacks all over the world, and has recently elected this guy Amadnutjob, who has openly called for Israel's destruction. The idea that we should just sit back and allow these fundamentalist religious nutcases to develop nuclear weapons is completely asinine. Not only might they use them against others, but Iran having them will influence other countries like Saudi Arabia, Turkey etc to try and acquire them. Before this ends, we could see many more nations building or attempting to build or acquire them. Their nuclear program should and must be crushed.

No DUAL loyalty here either- AND NO, ISRAEL HAS MADE ITS OWN BED OF ENEMIES- all on its own (well USA welfared tac dollars) and the USA does not have the same enemies- as the "JEWish" land of ISrael- AMERICANS are DIVERSE- muslims, christians , hindus , blacks whites , latins etc etc. ISRAEL IS constructed ALL FOR the JEWS_JEWS get privelged treatment- and YES AMErICA has made many mistakes- - ESPECIALLY THIS LAST IRAQ WAR and INVASION- MOST AMERICANS DO NOT WANT IT_ but our govt. is highjacked by loons-

Well spoken, Bill. I am neither a Jew or from Israel - and I often wonder exactly what this grudge between Israel and THE ENTIRE WORLD "IS" or is coming from - but I feel that it shouldn't be a consideration when dealing with the possibility of IRAN with a nuclear program. If there is anything we should have learned from all of our past wars - some of which may be mistakes - it is that we must be pro-active. 18 - JEWS are people also. ARRGHH! I SWEAR, YOU AMERICANS ARE ALL THE SAME! ... (???) ... The only thing that's getting "hi-jacked" is this posting board - by Americans - ... WHERE ARE YOU GUYS COMING FROM?
