1. Iran`s peaceful nuclear activities?
Nora ,   Tel Aviv   (12.04.07)
When Ahmadinejad says that Israel will be wiped out "in a moment" what does that mean ?
2. About as clear as freaking mud...........
Johnson ,   USA   (12.04.07)
"peaceful atomic aims" is a line of crap. If the thought of a terrorist state having nukes were not so deadly serious. I'd be laughing.. "The NIE said it was not clear if Iran still intended to develop a bomb. However, it said Iran was developing technical means that could be used to make weapons. " Thats what its all about, kiddies....
3. My proposal: Bomb 'em anyway...
Dr. Strangelove   (12.04.07)
...and spend the next couple of years trying to find the evidence. Worked perfectly well in Iraq. And the wolrd is much safer now too with all that peace and order the Americans brought to the country....
4. WHEW!!!
Myron E ,   USA   (12.04.07)
Well, that's that. I guess we can all relax now, right? Right?
5. USA ARE WEAK...USA CANNOT STAND ANYMORE AGAINST TERROR

6. United States "Intelligence"agency
Judah ,   Golan Heights,ISRAEL   (12.04.07)
The so called "intelligence" was wrong about Iraq and North korea. They probally are wrong about Iran. Now Iran will not be attacked and Israel will be the big loser in the years to come.
7. DOING THE DIRTY WORK
DAVID ,   JUDEA   (12.04.07)
Olmert shows us all the time he has no faith, but he has faith in the USA to do our dirty work. The USA like any other country has only its self interest at heart. With Iran's clear intention to wipe us from the worldmap, why in the hell are we not taking care of our own affairs? Olmert and his herzelist friends are sitting on their behinds because off that same lack off faith. They allow the dwarf of Iran to build and prepare for another attempt at a 1000 year REICH , like we saw only 65 years ago. Our herzelists who do not claim this land based on our torah, should have at least some memory of last centuries holocast. Inaction will cost us deerly, we do not have the capacity to even survive one nuke with such small landmass.
8. #5 Why don't you just shut up and come get us?
Yonatan ,   USA   (12.04.07)
Remember to bring your women and children so you have something to hide behind. You're all COWARDS
9. Iranian nukes an excuse to threaten Iran, as Iraqi WMDs excu
David Turner ,   Richmond, US   (12.04.07)
According to the Assessment Iran backed of the bomb about time Bush invaded Iraq. Bush has been hyping the Iranian Bomb ever since. Bush now has three carrier task forces off the coast of Iran. Prelude to invasion? Well, he did the same with the fictitious WMDs in Iraq. I guess if he doesn’t like a country he is president, he can make up his own excuses, and order the intel to prove them. But the US is overextended in Iraq. Since there are no bomb sites to bomb, another possibility is that the three carrier task forces are there to threaten Iran regarding her siding against US in Iraq. But wont the use of the fiction of an Iranian bomb add to insecurity in the Middle East, an already tinderbox where any spark could set off revolution or war? Should that not also be included in an intelligence estimate. That Bush is continuing his roughshod ride of death and destruction? Between fabricating excuses for wars, and handing Cheneys company Halliburton non-competition multi-billion dollar contracts in Iraq and Louisiana, when do impeachment proceedings begin? How many smoking guns are needed?
10. 7#, David, I agree with most of your email except...
Judah ,   Golan Heights,ISRAEL   (12.04.07)
your remark about the "herzliasts". I am a so called "settler" like you since I live in the Golan. Like you I believe this land is meant for the Jewish people and we should never leave any part of this land. Yet unlike you Theodore Herzl is one of my heroes. Without him you would not be in Judea and I would not be in the Golan. In fact there would not even be a Jewish State.

12. What is interesting
Jellybean ,   Chicago   (12.04.07)
is that Iran wants the US to pay. Again the IAEA quoted this.. " The International Atomic Energy Agency, the U.N. nuclear watchdog, has reported that Iran is cooperating with inspectors by providing access to declared nuclear material, documents and facilities. However, the agency also said Iran is withholding information in other areas, and as a result, the IAEA's knowledge about the status of the program is "diminishing." ". Now can someone please tell me that if Iran is "using" this for "so-called electricity" then why are they withholding other plans? Personally, I think Iran wants a nuclear weapon and this is turning into a international piss contest. Iran's nuclear sites should be destroyed before its too late. http://www.cnn.com/2007/POLITICS/12/04/iran.nuclear/index.html
13. #8
Jellybean ,   Chicago   (12.04.07)
I agree. The US must act restrained due to the Rules of Engagement and the Geneva Conventions, if we did not sign or participate then I would say that the Arab countries would have been nuked already.
14. #10 JUDAH
DAVID ,   JUDEA   (12.04.07)
It was not herzl that got us here, he wanted us in Uganda. In the end it was hashems will.
15. olmert, grow some bourekas.
israeli   (12.04.07)
be quiet, grow some bourekas. Its obvious the US has no intentions of dealing with Iran.
16. #1, it meams in a democratic way it will be wiped out ...
Rafael ,   Romania   (12.04.07)
not by bombing. When all people of that land have equal right to go for vote.
17. Irans Nuclear Drive
Dementia Praecox ,   U.S.A.   (12.04.07)
Obviously everyone of you bashing Israel and the U.S. obviously dont support freedom,or even are aware of the big picture. Personally I think they shut down the pilot/public weapons program down and simultaneously fired up the secret one. I think the 3000 centerfuges spinning are the decoy to keep the world busy.Stop them now before its too late.Please.I personally want a future for me as well as others and they want to run things.
18. Why Iran would even consider illegal demands...
Persian CAT   (12.05.07)
put to it by countries have nuclear, chemical, biological and all kinds of other illegal arsenals? Those who want to stop Iran from gaining nuclear knowledge are in a minority. Among them Israel is least qualified to say anything about Iran's legal and open nuclear R&D. Iran is not an occupier, has not territorial designs called "The Greater Iran", and Iranians are certainly not setting up illegal "settlements" anywhere. The world has recognized Isael as the cause of instability and danger in this region.
