31. iran "muslim"?
daoud ,   usa   (04.01.07)
salaam rashid. you praise ahmadinajad, but is he not the worst of all enemies of true islam, an "innovator," one who does not see hazrat i mohammed (pbuh) as the final messenger? are you too, an innovator?
32. Matter at hand
R-C ,   Indianapolis, IN USA   (04.01.07)
Can we stick to the matter at hand? Regardless of where UK soldiers were located they are being held without and should be released. Why should Iran provoke the situation any further and to what end? What can Iran possibly gain by holding these prisoners? Islam is a respectable religion, regardless of the extent in which it is expressed (the point of extremism?), however this is not a religious discussion. Iran, release them!
33. Bush rules arab lovers drool!
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO ,   USA ALL THE WAY   (04.01.07)
WE ARE GONNA KICK SOME FARSI A$$
34. Res:THIS IS WHAT YOU GET WHEN YOU FOLLOW AN IDIT LIKE BUSH !
ZM ,   USA   (04.01.07)
Amazing, the tact you use delivering your profound insite. Thank you for your useless input, now we can all debate something else. Let me guess, your vote is going to Hillary. No, Barack..... Wait, you may not even be a US citizen....we wouldn't know because you didn't even bother to identify yourself.
35. this is my point exactly bryoki from chicago
rashid ,   palistinian usa   (04.01.07)
here you are a woman on the internet trying to talk to men that you don't know on things that you don't understand go back to your father or your brother or your husband or whoever look after you now. i will not respond to you again as i don't want to waste me time talking to you
36. Iran is acting like a real country
USA   (04.01.07)
not some client banana republic of a state. Israel, take notes on what self pride and self respect means.
37. #19 & all so called men who think they are gods over women
American lady ,   U.S.   (04.01.07)
#1. Our laws are from God, not man, the One God who gave us the ''TEN COMMANDMENTS'' . #2. Even when the women dressed as ''black sheets'' walking down the street are all covered up to the point that you can't even see their eyes, you still think that they are the ''Sinful devils''.
38. In Response To The Racist Bryoki
Singh ,   New York, NY   (04.01.07)
Bryoki, You have issues. True that Rashid has fundamentalist thinking, but that is his OPINION. Doesn't necessarily mean it is the thinking of all other Muslims living in the U.S. And FYI, I'm not even Muslim. YOU, on the other hand, are the true fundaMENTAList and racist. "You are no one." "Get the hell out." "We really don't want you here anyways." Those are words coming out of the mouth of a true racist. The truth is, that it's because of people like you, that normal Muslims turn into fundamentalists. Our society does need fixing and will need fixing until schmucks like you get some real education.
39. #19 Our LAWS are GIVEN by the One Great G-D of the Universe!
Linda Rivera ,   New York   (04.01.07)
Our Laws are not given by men! Sinful men worship the idol of 'Power and Control'. In rebellion and utter rejection of Israel's G-D, violent men seek absolute power and control over every human being upon this earth. Inscribed in the Bible are the Laws G-D gave to his Hebrew servant, Moses, Laws that protect; the Laws our civilization is founded on: Exodus 20: "You shall not murder" "You shall not commit adultery" "You shall not steal" "You shall not bear false witness" Exodus 21:16 "He who kidnaps a man, whether he sells him or he is found in his possession, shall surely be put to death" Leviticus 24:17 "If a man takes the life of any human being, he shall surely be put to death" The mighty G-D will judge based on these Laws! G-D NEVER changes G-D's Word NEVER changes G-D's Laws NEVER change G-D commanded: YOU SHALL NOT MURDER
40. rashid
New Yorker   (04.01.07)
"don't forget that you follow laws that are made by men" Oh I haven't forgotten, but you obviously have. If you are going to live in this land rashid...you live by our laws...not allah's....otherwise you can get the hell out! "and i follow laws given by allah" Then go back from where you came from and follow allah's laws rashid. Here in the United States...allah's laws are not our laws...never will be either! "the way you treat your women is disggusting" Our women are free to be whomever they want to be. If you don't like it...I really don't care! "this is agains allah and we are going to change it slowly by surely" Wrong yet again rashid. You and your archaic ways are never going to win over freedom...never. I find it rather hypocritcal of you to bitch and moan about infidel presence in your precious middle east and yet you feel you are free to come to my country and change it according to your ways. Keep it up rashid and people are going to get pretty upset with you and your kind! Do yourself a favor and go back from where you came from! "your society need fixing and we are here to do it" LOL Not in this lifetime rashid. Our society has problems but the last thing we need is any of your allah laws!
41. You go ahead...
Sunny ,   Pakistan   (04.01.07)
Instead of instigating Britain to attack Iran, why don't you (Israel) take this step and show some loyality to your creators. I think you want British to try their fortunure like you did last year by attacking Lebanon.
42. Rashid, free ticket
Bryan ,   Charlotte USA   (04.01.07)
It is unfortunate that an individual will make such comments in regards to joining a group that is destroying international property. A little education could go a long way, last time I checked OPEC set the price of oil, not the USA or Britain. And you are also mistaken in which you think you cannot leave, that is the great thing about a democracy you may leave of your own free will. We do not force our religion upon you, or our values, our land is one of tolerance and patience, historically. And you might want to do a little more research, Islam does have a fine following, but almost as many folks are converting to christianity. Like other countries we have made poor decisions in the past, but if our way of life is not yours, and you feel disgusted, please find the door.
43. You sir are an idiot!
Jerry ,   Chicago Illinois   (04.01.07)
Do you have any clue about what is really going on here???
44. To Rashid
Jellybean ,   Chicago   (04.01.07)
First of all I am a woman. I have served my country and if needed will serve again. I hope and pray that the time will come that the US government will have enough of Arabs like you and decide to deport you. I hope that you have a great journey to Iran pailistine or whatever sand dune you emerged from. But on the other hand, you come to a jewish website and talk about returning to your homeland etc..I can tell you that you won't and will and always remain a coward. You have it made in the US. Lets see you get public aid, tax free because you are not a citizen, get college paid for and get a welfare check every month, the US government will really have a hard time getting rid of you since you will not leave MY COUNTRY and become a suicide bomber. Please spare everyone on this website because in all reality people here they laugh at you and think of you as a cowardly fool. Otherwise why are you living in the US having it made while all your "brothers" are "suffering" please leave or get deported either way your time will be short.
45. To Singh
Jellybean ,   Chicago   (04.01.07)
Bryoki is not a racists. If you do not like the American Social System and our way of life, then you leave too. I love my country and I find it wrong how people can come to the US reap all the benefits and then trash talk against it and hope that the US will be attacked. I seem to say that YOU have issues. It is people like Rashid and maybe your self that makes Islam have a bad name, Our society is not perfect nor will it ever be but I will rather live in my society now than ever live in a Muslim society. Like I said if this offends you oh well I have an opinion, you don't like take the next flight to India.
46. Isn't Rachid a cute little Jihadist!
(04.01.07)
From the safety and comfort of his residence in the US he talks so big, like all arabs attempting to conpensate for their lack of adequate male appendage's. I question the Aranians choice of victims, always something small, or relatevely defenseless--like an embassy full of non-violent diplomats, or British boarding vessels.
47. Government sponsored protest
Steve ,   USA   (04.01.07)
B"H These sorts of violent protests do not pass without approval and promotion by the government. That is why there is no violence on the Iranian embassy. Britton does not approve of violence against Iran. But my question is, if Britton has ceased diplomatic relations with Iran, why does it have an open embassy in Iran? It should evacuate its staff out if it thinks that the proper path for those outgunned in the ocean was to give up too. If you are going to close shop, close shop. Get out of Iran. Clearly you British are not welcome there anymore because Iran wanted to attack you. Iran is not based on logic, so do not try and rationalize with Iran with deceiving words. Actions mean a lot more than words. The UN declaration, you have been already warned, was not being implemented. You suspected that was Israel's problem. It was Great Briton's problem. The earlier you close shop and face Iran's next blow, perhaps the sooner you wake up to the fact that Iran is intent on war against you as soon as it picks up the means. And then you might realize that when Iran states it is going to wipe Israel off the map, it actually means Great Britton also. Maybe the negotiations get more serious then. After all, the radiation poisoning from Russia was in Great Britton. Was that not a hint of what is going down against Great Britton? How many more blinders need to be opened for you Great Britton? And if the USA cannot understand the seriousness of allies in such trouble, we are also seeing consequences around the corner. At least President Bush took the first military steps. He is the only one actually leading the war on terror in foreign territory in this world, and he is to be greatly praised for that.
48. To#13 Jcook
Peter ,   Toronto, Canada   (04.01.07)
J Cook, please to do not paint Canada with tat coward brush because of the idiotic comments of one Canadia Kaunda. The fact is no country other than the US is doing more in Afghanistan than Canada. Canada is bearing the brunt of the Nato obligations there and our soldiers are dying. In addition, our government hsa finally taken a tough stand since the last election. We were the first government in the world, including the US to refuse to recognize Hamas after its election and to stop the flow of aid to the PA. You should get your facts straight before you refer to Canada as you do. The fact that we too have liberal students and lots of arab and muslim immigrants who seek to impose their warped view of global conflict on our country is of no import
49. # 34
(04.01.07)
hours, 26 minutes ago WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The chief strategist of George W. Bush's 2004 re-election campaign said he had lost faith in the U.S. president over Iraq and other issues, in a high-level rupture of Bush's famously loyal inner circle. ADVERTISEMENT Matthew Dowd, a polling expert who switched parties to become a Republican and also served as a senior strategist in Bush's 2000 presidential campaign, told The New York Times in an interview on Sunday that Bush must face up to Americans' growing disillusionment with the war. Dowd said he had found himself agreeing with calls by Democratic Sen. John Kerry of Massachusetts, Bush's opponent in 2004, for a withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq. "If the American public says they're done with something, our leaders have to understand what they want," Dowd said. "They're saying, 'Get out of Iraq."'

Jellybean ,   Chicago   (04.01.07)
I agree with you. Canada is a great country with an awesome Hockey team. Many Americans thank Canada for their help with dealing with the war on terror.
51. Brother, Brother...
chill ,   American, USA   (04.01.07)
Rashid: You have to be kidding me! If you truly, truly were with the Iranians, you would find a way to get to Iran. John Walker was with the taliban and he made sure he got there. Its looks like a lot of air has left the room.
52. World War
Moe Chile ,   London Canada   (04.01.07)
World War III to begin on April 6, 2007 at 0400. May G-d have mercy on us all...
53. In response to Singh
Bryoki ,   Chicago, IL USA   (04.02.07)
Singh, Am I racist? No. I never said all muslims feel that way. I was clear in my point that if you feel that way Rashid does, then get the hell out. We don't have room nor time for anybody who wants to destroy us, or change how we live our lives. I have no problem with Muslims or anybody from Muslim lands. If you hate us and if you hate our country, get the hell out. Simple as that. No racism there. :) Oh yes, I am a male by the way, Rashid, so take your sexist a** back to Cairo with your bullsh*t thinking.
54. Iran Takes British Soldiers Hostage
Bob ,   USA   (04.02.07)
When Iran released the coordinates of where the sailors were captured, it actually was in Iraqi waters. So that makes the Iranians the real trespassers. It also proves that Iran is meddling in Iraq, and that Iran is the kidnapper, abductor, etc. This is all smoke by Iran to get the nuclear issue off world news headlines.
55. Re #19: On fleshy women and little children
Steve ,   USA   (04.02.07)
B"H Rashid, I can see how you could be disappointed with the swimming suits, and the flesh displayed. But there needs to be some consideration on this Iranian concept of sending little children and others on homocide bomber missions which I consdider to be even more gross. Think about it. One would be in extreme situations prostitution and the other is murder of little children and others. The leadership sends people to murder themselves and others. I see murder of little children as a very low crime.
56. Explosives rock British embassy in Tehran
Robert ,   New York   (04.02.07)
When are we (USA) going to get off our butt and invest enough $$ in R&D to truly develop a viable energy source instaed of oil? Once we do this 99% of these problems will dry up and vanish. Without oil we wouldn't even be over there. Come on Mr. President, when are you going to get out of bed with Mobil?
57. Mohammed was a pedaphile & facist
Robert ,   New York   (04.02.07)
Get your head out of the sand (literally) and do some unfiltered reads on your boss Mohammed. A sleazy man. Wake up before the USA turns Mecca & everywhere else you hold up high into a smoking hole in the ground. Go back to your countiry & stay out of the USA.
58. our enemy is the people of iran.
(04.02.07)
our enemies are the people of iran.
