idiot! ever heard of mutual deterance? no wonder arabs loose wars with idiots such as yourself.
32. The President of Iran said he is willing to lose
Judson Spencer ,   Toledo USA   (07.26.08)
33 per cent of Irans population to destroy Israel..If he attacks our bases He will get his wish and maybe lose 50 per cent. A single United States submarine waits quietly in the ocean. Range 6,000 miles - 198 nuclear warheads. It can kill every living thing in Iran . One sub. The Israelis have 350 plus warheads of their own. I pray for Irans innocent population.
33. It will be over before Iran is aware it started
Myron Cheatham ,   Chicago USA   (07.26.08)
They will not be able to detect the massive Israeli - USA attack. The missles that survive the initial attack will be shot down by us and Israel. Between us and Israel more than one thousand bombers will be used in addition to new squadrons of pilotless bombers and cruise missles. Should Iran get a lucky chemicle weapon into israel= The world will no longer need to worry about Iran nor will anyone be able to live in Iran for 100 years.
34. To Mr Gurmit Singh (#17)
Samuel Prime ,   Canada   (07.26.08)
Because it is has never been Israel's calling nor aim to wipe Iran off the map, as the Iranian president frequently declared genocidal threats. This threat is no illusion and must be taken seriously. Israel never threatened anyone with its nukes (if it has them). That's the stark difference. Also, just because right now "terrorists don't have nukes," (if that is the case) that does not mean we should lose our guard and allow them to gain such access in the future. We must constantly be vigilant and watchful for such catastrophic world threats---certainly including threats to India and Asia (as recent clashes between India and Pakistan show). Israel suffers the same threats you suffer. So we should work together as allies against a common enemy. PS---Please note your misspelling of "Israel."
35. now we know!!!!
Robert ,   usa   (07.26.08)

42. # 38 He Doesn't Know Anything

43. Ephraim Halevy, erudite, eloquent and wise
Sheila ,   Jerusalem Israel   (07.26.08)
Those of you who seem to have a vocabulary which is limited to expletives and stupidities are obviously unaware of his incredible histroy and great ability. Use grown up language and logic please
44. Halevy's reasoning is wrong
Joe ,   Canada   (07.26.08)
Halevy's arguments against attacking Iran don't hold much water. Public opinion on Israel in Moslem countries is so bad it can't get much worse. But in government circles, unofficially, there would be rejoicing at reducing the stature & growing military & political influence of Iran & its Shiite version of Islam. Arabs & Persians have a long history of hostility due to the past domination of the latter over the former.
45. blocked vision
al ,   cap-town   (07.26.08)
you speak like an arab the quantity count not the brain
46. Halevy misses some important points
Joe ,   Canada   (07.26.08)
While Iran may not dare to use its arsenal of missiles against Israel for fear of retribution, it has other means (which it has already used in Argentina with explosives) to secretely deliver nuclear devices through proxies. Halevy's poor argument that many missiles would be intercepted would be of no help in such a case. And what if only one in hundred nuclear tipped missile reaches Israel? Would a 99% interception rate be considered a success? And we know that Ahmanidejab is such a religeous fanatic barbarian that nothing will holding him back short of violence even if he may feign at some point in the future to restrain himself for tactical purposes.
47. war with Iran
Frank Rutto ,   East Islip, NY   (07.27.08)
It should be decided by the legue of nations.Who ever fires the frist atomic bomb should be pounce on by all nations. Atomic bombs should be outlaw like poison gas in the first world war.
