1. Iran leaders are pure evil.
Peter ,   UK   (05.24.09)
Look how they treat their own prisioners,without any mercy for human life. Why would they treat other countries differently. Cruel and disgusting race.
2.  FOR OBAMA'S AND USA
BEN ,   SINGAPORE   (05.24.09)
Argentina issued INTENATIONAL ARREST WARRANTS in NOV 2006 in connection with a suicide bombing of the Jewish Cultural Center in Buenos Aires- Argentina- for MURDER of 85 civilians a and injuring another 151. The attack on the Jewish cultural center came two years after the 1992 terrorist bombing of the Israeli embassy in Buenos Aires. In 1998, Rezaee's son, AHMAD REZAEE, defected to the United States, where he told officials that the attack on the Israeli embassy in Buenos Aires was planned in Tehran. The son told U.S. authorities that he had accompanied his father to Lebanon to witness the training. He is currently on the official, HE IS CURRENTLY ON THE OFFICIAL WANTED LIST. IS OBAMA OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA GOING TO CONDUCT THE ARREST OF THIS HOOLIGAN AND CRIMINAL ?

5. Am I missing something here? It is Iran that calls...
Rivkah   (05.24.09)
America the big Satan and Israel the little Satan and perpetually threatens to annihilate both. Israel would not consider hitting Iran's nuclear facilities sites if Iran was a less radical nation instead of mouthing the war mongering, destroy America and Israel at all costs, rhetoric. Most nations can survive a nuclear attack and Israel will survive the attack on Jerusalem by what appears to be a nuclear weapon in Isaiah the Prophet's description since the women are bald after the attack. But I can assure you, the judgments on the nations that attack Israel will be profound, including the destruction of the militaries of all nations listed in Ezekiel chapter 38 and 39. Israel will then emerge as the top dog nation on earth. And any national leader who does not come to Jerusalem once a year to worship the Jewish Messiah will not get rain for the year for their country.
6. DeNuke Iran!
judyinjerusalem ,   jerusalem, israel   (05.24.09)
Diplomacy with Iran hasn't worked. They have three separate nuclear production facilities. They can enrich uranium. They have a heavy water reactor and a light water reactor. They're operating thousands of centrifuges. They have or are very near having nuclear warheads. And perhaps most important of all, they've developed rocket technology sufficient to deliver a nuclear warhead to Israel AND North America. What can we do? Together, collectively, we have a chance. Our voice can be heard. Together we can raise hell. The alternative is to leave our fate in the hands of Nancy Pelosi and Hillary Clinton and President Obama and the UN and the IAEA and the Europeans and the Russians.. Good luck. Sign on to the new grassroots initiative at www.denukeiran.com Encourage others to do the same. Our collective voice can be heard. We must tell our policy makers to do whatever it takes to stop Iran. And to do whatever it takes before it's too late.

No they are not a bad race. The leaders are bad. The people hate this regime. I have no doubt that eventually they will overthrow it.

Irrational and dumb shias. They are living in a world of their own, disconnecte dfrom reality; Thats why they can't be grante dnuclear power.

13. Another one with an attitude
Talula ,   Israel   (05.24.09)
Why does Iran hate us so much? Why do we irritate them so much? It's because they feel inferior to us. Pity, Israel and Iran used to have good relations until these crazed psychotic neanderthals crawled out from under a large lump of camel dropping.
14. 13 Talula: Iran hates Israel because the prosperity and
Rivkah   (05.24.09)
existence of Israel proves the Koran is in error because the Koran says that will not happen. For the Koran to be in error on even one point, shows the religion of Islam is in error. You see, Islamics think the blessings of Abraham went to Ismael. With all the oil wealth such as the greatest transfer of wealth in the history of the world from the USA for oil, the Islamics are very wealthy. That fits in with the Koran's teachings. But for Israel to be wealthy and prospering in the land and the latter rains returned with the return of the Jews, that is a thorn in the side of Islam that cannot be overlooked.
15. Iran vs. Israel
M. Hartley ,   Atlanta, US   (05.24.09)
Iranian politicians more than likely couldn't care less about religious differences. They do, however, remember only too well what Israeli F15's and F16's did to Osirak in l981. Assuming that a few B2's, pilots and MOAB's included, would be available to Israel, if they were needed, no wonder the Iranians are jumping up and down. All that money spent on piles of rubble and still no "Iran ueber alles in der Welt."
16. Only Deterrent: Certainty Nuking Israel=>Destroy Temple Mt
Paqid Yirmeyahu ,   Ra'anana, Israel   (05.24.09)
Here's a surprise view of "Armageddon" not seen before that I don't think Israel's enemies will like very much. Israel must ensure that Har ha-Bayit is sanctified in the event Arabs launch a WMD (weapon of mass destruction) on Israel. We can ensure that by aiming our LAST 3 (for redundancy and certainty) nukes--small and deliberately "dirty"--at the Temple Mount to destroy the Muslim mosque and ensure that, since the Jews will have been wiped out, no goyim can set foot on the mount for, oh, say 200,000 years. It wouldn't happen unless some madman launches a WMD on Israel. If they don't launch a WMD they have nothing to worry about. Arabs and Muslims should be made certain that any nuclear (or other WMD) attack equates to the certainty that THEIR ACTION IS CAUSING the permanent and irretrievable loss of the Temple Mount. That's a deterrence. Haman-die-jihad hasn't begun to experience catastrophic surprises that will overwhelm him and Iran if he attacks this Nation and People of Y--H! Consider that's what Saddam once thought... and a long list of rulers no different than Haman-die-jihad. ha-Sheim can take you out at any moment He sees fit in completely inexplicable circumstances, as an example. Don't worry about the Jews being blamed. The only way it could happen would also mean we aren't around anymore to worry about being blamed. We need to deter to survive. Those who compromise Israel's security deserve a rude brush-off... at best.

17. Time to nuke iran and take out most
jason white ,   afula,israel   (05.24.09)
of their government and armed forces. If G-d forbid, we are nuked,then we have to nuke mecca and medina and all moslim "holy" sites. Then take out their most populated cities.
18. Iranian General
Bob ,   Philadelphia, Pennsy   (05.25.09)
Duh. Pretty obvious, seeing as how small Israel is. Israel has to stop thesxe crzy people NOW.
19. dont forget general Israel has missiles as well
zionist forever   (05.25.09)
Iran could damage Israel with a conventional attack but thats as far as it goes but if we do nothing Israel may end up as Irans Bikini Atol. The wise old general should also remember they are not the only ones with missiles. Any conventional attack that cause mass casualties might just end up with Iran being the one getting nuked. If Obama had any courage he would he would be willing to take military actiion instead of spending the next 4 years running round and round in circles pretending diplomacy can work whilst Iran continues to develop nukes.
20. 17 You couldn't beat Hamas/Hezbullah
lydia ,   Brisbane   (05.25.09)
But you think you can take on Iran? Smell the gunpowder blowing in your face. You are on your own. No US, No Russia, No China, No India, No Pakistan, No Egypt, No Saudi Arabia to come to your defense. Everyon's waiting for you to get a thumping. Talk Peace!
21. #20 Foolish woman
Cynthia ,   USA   (05.26.09)
You really expect to talk peace to Hamas, Hizbullah and Iran? I think you meant the whole world is waiting for Israel to take care of the problem. And while you had your head in the sand, Hamas and Hizbullah took quite a beating.
22. 21How many years to subdue a rag tag army

23. Look the xitian witnessers/proselytizers that post on here
AY_Lamb ,   USA   (05.26.09)
are obsessed with their “end of the world eschatology”, - they view any disagreement with their dogma as a great injustice and repression to them - you see; the denial of their Jesus entity is seen as sort of persecution that they can’t bear. Their “end of the world” prognostication stands for a great emancipation, a great redemption for all humanity but, especially them the “believers” – soooo, the unfortunate attribute to the realization of this future “revelation” is the unfortunate annihilation of certain “bipeds” in a certain “geographic area” and uh well I use the term bipeds and “geographic area” because they (the believers in xitianism) are incapable of and, can never accept that these certain “unbelievers” are sentient beings in the their definition of the word or in what they see as the truest sense of the word and, they can’t view this “geographic area” as anything really relevant beyond the future home of their absentee deity. Just look at history, look at the coliseum in Rome, look at the pogroms’, farhuds, putsches’, inquisitions etc etc – the vandalism and theft done in the name of their deity, there is a clear absence of moral conscience and indeed a celebration of “wrong” in these recorded events. Until these certain “bipeds” acknowledge the truth of this they (those engaged in xitian soul harvest) will continue to prey on the weak using fear mongering and scare tactics. Some have donned the identity of "Jewish" with a great revelation of the future offer, they are the most deceitful and persistent, it is Rikvah, Paqid, Sarah and M. Hartley - They are thinly disguised "secret santa" - jesusites engaged in the most relentless "soul harvest"

I couldn't care any less about one collection of fairy tales than I do about any other, what you or anyone else does or doesn't believe or think. I do, however, want to thank you for making me laugh at the convoluted BS of your tb, even if I missed the connection to the article. Obviously, raving fanatics come in all flavors and will hold forth at the drop of any hat.
25. M. Hartley you promote
AY_Lamb ,   USA   (05.28.09)
belligerency and calamity in SW Asia because, like the many that came before you it fits neatly into your supremacy doctrine. You just hide your agenda under a guise of secular intelligentsia - have a Merry Christmas and remember their will always be me and those like me opposing your aggression using the only tolls at our disposal our G_d given superior intellect. Their is a well documented connection between Sex and violence I suggest you research and please pass the info around to your "frustrated" conservative fellows.
26. Ooops a couple of grammar errors
AY_Lamb ,   USA   (05.28.09)
A friend was kind enough to point out. I meant "there" instead of "their" and "tools" instead of "tolls". Oh well what can say I have much bigger "warmonger" and "fear mongering" fish to fry other than those on here. So given the fact I can only take a maximum of 5 minutes per post I think I am doing okay because I am making my point. There are those that promote hostility and violence for their own benefit and nothing more whatever righteous reason they may claim. If one examines the facts and the facts only (and ignores the inflammatory and incendiary rhetoric) one must concur that neither Iran nor Israel has occupied or garrisoned soldiers in their neighboring countries but, America has and so have other sovereign states and, geographically America is in what "geographers" would call a totally different hemisphere. So if interested parties are going to comment on motives, ulterior motives, or agendas I would suggest examining the countries deploying resources the most outside their own borders. I would question that country's leaders and their supporters.
27. To #25 You are truly funny. Thanks!
M. Hartley ,   Atlanta, US   (05.29.09)
28. Happy to please!
AY_Lamb ,   USA   (05.29.09)
but, please seek a little education and consider the waste of fomenting discord. Witless sloganeering, hyperbole and contentious allegory has just led to the resounding defeat and marginalization of those embracing and espousing conservative values and principles. I would suggest if you have the means available visit Israel and Iran and while your at it take a jaunt through Iraq I, am sure you will find these places quite different then your presumptions.
