121. To all Arab/Iranian talkbackers
Korem ,   New York, USA   (12.25.07)
Can you guys explain to me how a US report by a US organization is proof that the Israeli government (or the "zionists" if you prefer) is planning a nuclear war with Iran/genocide of the Arabs? Read the article, it never says that Israel must strike Iran/Syria/Egypt with nuclear weapons, it says she would prevail had THOSE NATIONS STRIKED FIRST WITH NUCLEAR OR BIOLOGICAL WEAPONS. You anti-Israels are creating a straw man argument and saying Israel is planning genocide and is the ultimate evil on the face of the planet, Jews hate all non-Jews, Israelis are not celebrating Christmas because they're warmongers, LOL.
122. Three Weeks???
Bobin ,   US   (12.25.07)
A nuclear conflict should be over in 3 hours, not 3 weeks.
123. Hysterical sissies.
Loolwa ,   Israel   (12.25.07)
Oh please, stop acting shocked and horrified that a study has been done on this. "Look at the mean Israelis, they're planning to nuke Iran!!!! They'll kill us all!!" Nervous ninnies. You know damn well that war scenarios and potential outcomes are discussed in every country. Such is real life. Stop pretending to be shocked, you only look like a big baby.
124. US report: Israel would weather nuclear war with Iran
Guenter ,   Zuerich, Switzerland   (12.25.07)
Nonesense! All this stupid warmongering is done in hope that Iran will loose its temper. I tell you what the Iranians much smarter than all jews and americans accumulated. Dream of an attack, but Iran will become the power house in the middle/far east and the skankess will have to go home as the power of the turkish creeps will diminish too. It is over, thanks to Vladimir Putin the Great President of the Russian Confederation, who displaced the skankees and the jews where the belong: on the dump of history as lunatics and war criminals.
125. Genocidal Israel ?
michael mazur ,   brunswick australia   (12.25.07)
Between 16 and 28,000,000 Iranians incinerated is apparently worth it as only b/n 200 and 800,000 of yours are killed. Are you fucks out of your tiny psychotic minds ??? Do you realise what you're saying ??? What you sickos can't abide is that the Iranians, and everybody else, have far fewer genetic defects than your 20% chance of inheriting 1 or more of the 11 conditions unique to your Ashkenazi selves. Too much inbreeding in the shtetls centuries ago which gave you your distinctive nose, amongst other things ? So you're about to correct that by giving the Iranian `survivors`, via enhanced backgroung radiation, genetic illnesses to surpass yours ? It wasn't enough to mass murder 66,000,000 non jews in Russia, you pathologically can't help yourselves until you've murdered everyone on the planet not a jew. Can you ?? And you know full well that Iran has no nukes, and even if it did, so what, as they wouldn't dare use the paltry number they might cobble together against the complete obliteration - 77,000,000 people - which your captive America would inflict on them immediately. In fact you are really looking to do this total annihilation number rather than the `insignificant` 28,000,000, as along you have, and still do, prattle on about Ahmadinejad having threatened `to wipe you off the map` , when he said no such thing. That holowcost was a fraud all along and you all know it, and yet it forms the basis of the psychological control mechanism of us so that no crime no matter how mind numbingly obscene that you commit can equal what was supposedly done to you. The ultimate point of difference b/n your religion and anyone elses' is that your's is actually a death cult whose object is the death of everyone else and nothing less will suffice. That is becoming alarmingly obvious if it wasn't before. Someone is going to have to think of a new word for the extermination of all of the non jews on the planet. How about globocide ? But then, since you intend to be the sole survivors you will write the history and we will never have existed, so that word will not be necessary.
126. Comments of a bunch of power worshiping lunatics
Syrian ,   Toronto, Canada   (12.25.07)
You folks are totally crazed with power and force and it's gotten to your heads. Neither party can annhilate the other no matter what weapons they have. The remarks of most readers are totally crazy but being crazy will not scare the Arabs or Iranians off, you know, it will just make them more and more aware of your sick souls. No amount of force will guarantee your future unless and until you come to your senses and abolish Zionism and then we can live as humans. Right now, you are a danger to humanity.
127. Absolutely amazing...
Turboguy ,   USA   (12.25.07)
I find it absolutely amazing, after reading a few oof the other poster's comments, that many of you say that the Holocause never happened, Ahmadinejad is a good guy, etc. Now I read Michael Mazur's idiot diatribe against Jews and Israel and am truly horrified! Where do people like you come from? First you have the audacity to insult the Israelis genetics. Racist, Anti-Semitic Neo Nazi punk. Then you actually believe that if nuclear armed, Iran, wouldn't use them in one way or another to attack Israel, while knowing full well that Ahmadinejad believes that there's going to be an apocalyptic war, and wants it to happen. Further, Michael, you deny the Holocaust, for which there is literally TONS of evidence. Did the Jews magically will Auschwitz into existence? Did the Jews, through some wackjob conspiracy, invent the Nazi party and the horrors they inflicted on not just the Jews, but anyone they deemed inferior? Michael, you're a fool. Your closed minded views of the world bely a simple mind which hs been spoon fed Liberal European propaganda, probably in a public learning institution, and further shows the in-arguable fact that you've probably never been outside Australia, and quite probably have never even met a Jew. Closed minded simpleton, do the world a favor and take a long walk off a short pier. Now I read Guenter's "Words of Wisdom" and I guess I'm not even a bit surprised that a European would spout anti-Semetic garbage. Hell, Europe is where Anti-Semitism was invented for God's sake. I see you Europeans haven't gotten past your Mass Napoleonic complex, and learned nothing from the last World War. Man, and you Europeans say that American's are stupid. And learn proper grammar, and stop with your insults. Your fallacious arguments are all you have. I'm glad that my country supports Israel. Israel is a beacon of rational thought is a sea of radical, fanatic, Islam. We'll continue to support you as long as the need is there, and we'll do it proudly. Fight on Israel!
128. Israel & Iran - Nukes
bill smith ,   Newark USA   (12.25.07)
This is crazy - A nuclear exchange would destroy the entire middle east & world economy!
129. Iran a nuclar threat to Israel??
rob ,   canada   (12.26.07)
If anyone thinks that Iran is ever going to launch a strike against israel, please think again. Woudn't Iran in the process kill masses of palasinians or to the least poisen them and their habitat with radioacive poision? So why the hell are we even talking about iran being a nuclear threat other than paving the road for an agressive Western forein policy designed to eradicate anything in their way to profit.
130. # 16
Raphy ,   USA   (12.26.07)
My advise to any sensible farsi, for ur own sake, please throw away these mullahs. Even rafsanjani proclaimed that he is wiling to sacrifice 10/15 millions for the Balestinian cause!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Who have him the righ to decide who lives and who dies? bUt, we are talking about a fanatic group. That is exactly why we have this beautiful arsenal, to counter your big dream of dismantling us. U have spent trillions the last 40 years trying to produce this A bomb, and u have had everyone helping you, and you are still struggling. We have had what we have since 1959, and since ten have devised some incredible systems which even the russians and Americans do not possess, and as Mr Cordesman states your glorious muslim society will be erased, and in much less than his 3 weeks estimation. Just imagine what those wasted Trillions could have done to ur defunct country.
131. what about the rest of the world..
sim ,   amsterdam netherland   (12.27.07)
What do you people think will happen to the rest of the world, did everybody forget what the promises were from Hezbollah and Al Qaeda? All countries around the world are then under threath, America would be a number one target immediately after the first bomb hits Iranian soil. Loads of people of both terrorist organisations are already in the U.S, just waiting to come into action, even with help of criminal organisations from south america. Everybody is afraid of Iran being nuclear, but Al Qaeda already has that status, they are just waiting for the right moment and that would be the right moment. If all eyes are on the conflict between Israel and Iran, America will get it too and every supporting country(for America or Israel) will be threatened as well... I would say to Israel to be careful with this descision, it will have global conscequences... I can't wait though... Humanity is killing the planet anyway by overpopulating it and destroying everything that is more valuable than petty human lives
132. nuclear war between Iran and israel
kamran ,   tehran/iran   (12.31.07)
how could anybody ever keep living after needlessly sacrificing so many innocent lives? Why not attempt a regime chage in Iran by supporting democratic and moderate elements ?
133. Double Standards
KS ,   London   (01.01.08)
Iran is no threat to Israel, Iran has no wish to touch Israel.. unfortunately, the media likes to make it out so. The last thing I would have expected was the Israeli media falsely lying to the Israeli people, that is 1 step too far. Israel has been involved in more wars than any other country in the Middle East in the last 80 years. Israel has the strongest military and the only country in breach of the middle east nuclear treaty. Israel also publically announced it wants borders to match what was Israel in ancient times < That is the threat to Iran and other countries. Israel is the threat under idiotic Zionist rule. Vote for Jews, not Zionists.
134. i dont support #133

136. #5 is amazingly correct....
sandi ,   bos,usa   (07.14.08)
its got to be done...we can help the survivors. ill screw your brains out #5 as the bombs drop. then we can help build a better world. from sandi the toughest gal o n the planet.
137. Iran is not full of animals
Demosthenese ,   Boston USA   (10.02.08)
The plan to Nuke Iran is a U.S. one not an Israeli one. There's no doubt that Isreal has a right to defend itself but if your planning on eliminating millions of normal people why not take the route that's just a bit harder and eliminate only the rulers and all of the Mullahs. Any series of 2 or more nukes going off will have a serious consequences on the weather and our climate not to mention being so evil that the US will be barred from every country in the world. I want my Republic back and we will have it if we all think about it daily and pray to our God for it's reality.
138. 105,question
jeff smith ,   huntington beach usa   (04.15.09)
Forget this war crap,Is there surf in Iran? Looking at the maps,It looks like you have some tasty Indian ocean possibilities.
139. Iran
Ray from kentucky ,   Morehead kentucky   (04.17.09)
Ok i do have a few comments. Frist off how could Iran expect to win any war with Israel when it couldnt even win one with Iraq ? anyone remember they had to send in childern to clear the mine felds ? 2Yes they can and would shut down the Pursan gulf for a while and stop the oil flowing and put most of the world in a big hurt. But thats nothing compaired to what they would loose. 3.How can anyone negoate"Talk to the MUALLS of iran if its ok to lie to a infadal? how are we to belive anything they tell us? 4 who is the ones calling for the wipping of the other of the face of the map? 5Has Israel said it you dont covert that they will kill you? No i dont think so. And last who has called for them to own all of the middle east and the world for that matter? all in the name of Islam? From the way i see it Israel had only defended itself when it has been attacked !!! ANd i cant and wont blame her for that. The world will Pay for deviding the city of the JEWS , this is going to only one small part of the price. GOD speed to Israel Im with you every step of the way and if i could im come fight by your side. Ray
