1. Realistically, there is only one option.
Terry ,   Eilat, Israel   (07.24.08)
The last sentence in the article says it all.

What is dillusional about believing someone when they say they want to wipe your country and your people off the face of the earth? Israel knows Iran is a threat because they see the bombs landing on Sderot. Were the people of Britain delusional in believing, when they saw bombs falling on London, that the Nazis were a threat? Pull your head out of the sand, mate. If anyone's delusional, it's you!
4. Sure Start a War, But Just Don't Whine When the Hit Back
Lev Bronstein ,   Moscow, Russia   (07.24.08)
The fact that Iran is going to exercise its legal and legitimate right to develop nuclear power is not justification both under the NPT and as a sovereign nation for Israel to start a war with Iran, but if Israel is reckless enough to start a war with Iran, please don't whine about the consequences of your actions when your own cities start to burn. Besides, the most you can do at best is to delay their nuclear power program a bit, but you will certainly force them to abandon the NPT develop nuclear weapons to secure their country from attack and to deter future Israeli aggression against Iran, assuming Israel still exists after what would be their legitimate retaliation against Israeli targets. A better course of action would be to stop being the World’s foremost jerks, abandon your illegal Zionists inspired occupations and make peace with your neighbors, but given your corrupt and criminal choices in leaders, I doubt that is an option.
5. ABSOLUTELY CORRECTLY NOTED....TERRY.....#1
MAHMOOD ,   LONDON-UK   (07.24.08)
Whate else does the IDF chief has to do and has been doing for the past four years?
6. Ashkenazi on Iran
I.Kemp ,   Nahariya Israel   (07.24.08)
The time for sanctions is long past and was a loser from the start which just about everybody knew but the western politicians .No doubt they had to give it a try. Time is short so the military option is an option that cannot now be missed .
7. For Iran,"negotiation" and "compromise" are euphemisms...
Robert Bernier ,   Tel Aviv   (07.24.08)
For Iran,"negotiation" and "compromise" are euphemisms for shame and surrender. In the new Cold War shaping up between Islamism and the democratic West, Israel holds the front line. Once again, the values of the opposing sides are irreconcilable. In the Arab and Muslim order, power is absolute and has to be victorious, so "negotiation" and "compromise" are euphemisms for shame and surrender. Islamist Iran has made itself the driving force. The terrorist movements Hizbullah and Hamas are both Iranian satellites, and their presence on Israel's borders ensures that Iran can already engage in terrorism on its own terms and at times of its own choosing.
