31. Research?
Bob ,   Akron, Ohio   (07.01.10)
I did my research. I have family here and in Israel who knew him well. He was not a conventional Zionist to be sure, but Albert Einstein WAS most certainly a Zionist. Even a rudimentary google search would tell you that he was, would shed light on his misgivings, and would show his ultimate support for Zionism for better or for worse.
32. The trick is to make every vital product "Zionist"
William ,   Israel   (07.01.10)
Then Iran can just boycott its own way into oblivion.
33. #10 - How do you test for a Zionist?
William ,   Israel   (07.01.10)
"Black list include American companies owned by Jews" The article says it all. Unless you have a special scientific test that detects who are Zionists (and there are many Christian ones as well), it looks like you'll just label every Jew unless they are from Nutrei Karta.
34. #28 - two sticks and a crayon...best replacement to Intel
William ,   Israel   (07.01.10)
and two tin cans with a string between them...best replacement to cellphones.
35. #24 - apparently you already boycotted Google
William ,   Israel   (07.01.10)
because there are plenty of links there attesting to Einstein's support for Zionism, with his own caveats of what it should look like. But absolutely, he support the creation of Israel and a country for the Jews. "It is well known that Einstein, a German Jew, witnessed European anti-Semitism firsthand and spoke out against both prejudice and Nazism. These experiences convinced Einstein to support Zionism and a Jewish homeland."
36. " in order to increase civilian support of the Palestinians"
William ,   Israel   (07.01.10)
...let's take all of the stuff they like away from them. Yeah, withholding from the public always gains their support.
37. HAHAHA....
david cohen   (07.01.10)
excellent. no coke, no intel, no nuclear, no medical equipment from israel, go back to ancient time Persia! there is a God after all: the ayatollah are committing an intellectual suicide
38. Iran is a GAS importer...
Rich in Boston ,   Boston USA   (07.01.10)
because its refining capabilities are limited. With increased sanctions its ability to meet its domestic refined fuel demands become a more critical issue. Its economy will slow and inflation will sky-rocket. A coke will cost 1500 dinar, which most Iranians cant afford anyway....so no biggy. Sanction away you crazy little monkey.
39. #4: Thats Pepsi Not Coke
iObserver and News ,   USA   (07.01.10)
And she's a total loser
40. Act of war and just Soooo Stupid! LOL!
iObserver and News ,   USA   (07.01.10)
Iran WILL be broadcast live on CNN as it is being bombed into submission. Irans leadership must be taken out and will be...everybody knows this. It's only a matter of time before the dwarf leader and his 'spiritual advisors' are shown in rubble and torn to pieces. By next summer, there won't be an Iran as we know it. And Syria, Lebanon and the fruitless Palestinians will be in their worst condition throughout their history. Cant wait for the loser warmongers to get their comeuppance !!
41. #23 hahahaha..the best of'em all
John ,   Boise, Idaho USA   (07.01.10)
Good work on this one...it is a classic!
42. ayatolla and cocacolla
joe ,   usa   (07.01.10)
since ayatolla just banned cocaclla from his land ,and also I B M and motorolla,what is little hassouni to do ,meaning hassan nasrallah.he is hiding deep in a hole ,just like a mouse or a mole,sheding sweat like a dog , from fear more than summer heat .he wants his coca colla but since the ayatolla said no,he as usual obeyed and now he has tosettle for iranian made soda called cocollah and a second brand called pepsiallah. but i heard it did;ntagree with him at all and now he has GAS . just what he wanted so he WON.
43. GAS
JOE ,   USA   (07.01.10)
ask nasrolla for some, him and his buddies in a hole for years,i heard their stressful situation ,caused a lot of gas underground. so there you have it lebanese plenty of natural gas under lebanese ground halleluja halleluja
44. #10 persian Kitty
Iranian Jew ,   LA   (07.01.10)
yes, and if they get caught talking to jews in Israel on internet or on the phone then they are spies and will get jail. I guess the Jews in Iran better start importing Coca Cols through back door. They will even make more money or better yet. Open a warehouse in Dubai and stock it up with Cola and America goods and then you can sell them for ten times more to tyeh same moron who banned them. Thank you again Mr. Monkey for helping the gulf countries making fortunes form your dumb ideas. With morons like this Jews will always be on top an prosperous. Mr. Edrogan! Are you getting business lessons from this? Your monkey is going to make you richer now.
45. Iranian TV
Iranian jew ,   LA   (07.01.10)
Most people in Iran have illegal dish or satellites. They watch other countries most of the time. You should ban watching TV, period. Then you may have something there. Alcohol is also banned but people drink it more than before. .. What a clown! Who gave this guy a doctorate? Bin laden?
46. To: No. 24
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (07.01.10)
I guess that's why he left all his papers and research materials to the Weizmann Institute. In fact, Fred, he was such an enthusiastic supporter of the State of Israel and such a committed Zionist, that he was offered the presidency of the State of Israel in 1948. He turned it down due to ill health and, sure enough, seven years later, he passed away.
47. #3 - Don't be sarcastic. It may happen.
Josh S ,   USA   (07.01.10)
The Germans were never got their nuclear bomb program off the ground because they couldn't believe that "Jewish Physics" (Einstein's theory of relativity among other things) could possibly be valid.
48. I second it
Jerrold Cohen ,   Seal Beach, USA   (07.01.10)
Jews si. Zionists no. I also refuse to buy Microsoft products.
49. let them drink pepsi
Barney ,   USA   (07.01.10)
i own stock in that company and i am a Jew. If not then let them drink camel p. add a little seltzer it is not bad perhaps with a corned beef sandwich and a kosher pickle. this guy is not only a joke but a disgraceful joke. monty python couldn't come up with better comedy than this clown. While i wish no malice on the Iranian people who i believe are victims- i hope achminejedad fries in some pig fat to make some cracklins for the infidels. he is the ultimate joke backed by the mullahs who are the ultimate essence of evil
50. Those of you who speak about Einstein.
Peter ,   Vienna-Austria   (07.01.10)
He not only opposed the state of israel,but he also refused to to become its president. Guess that makes him a self hating jew to you guys. LOL Oh,and by the way,it was German knowledge that made him.
51. #48 Poor Microsoft, Jerrold
Cynthia ,   USA   (07.01.10)
We see how Microsoft is suffering without your business.
52. #50 Einstein loved Israel
Cynthia ,   USA   (07.01.10)
As a Zionist, he was flattered by the offer but as Sarah noted, he was ill and declined the job. Seems your comments make you a self-hating shrew. And by the way, thanks to Ahmadinejad, the world now sees how popular Coca Cola and Zionist products are in Iran. This is yet another punishment against the Iranian people. Next we'll read about women being stoned to death for drinking Diet Coke.
53. On Einstein and zionism
Ilana   (07.01.10)
Einstein was against nationalism but was pro zionist as can be seen in many things he wrote and said specifically and in many books and interviews.
54. Do you want a list of things to refuse Jerrold
Ilana   (07.01.10)
I can forward it to you but it will be VERY long...
55. To: No. 50
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (07.01.10)
No, dear it was Jewish knowledge that made him. Jews -- mathematics -- physics -- there's an affinity there that even you, Jew-hater extraordinaire, cannot deny. He was offered the presidency of the State of Israel, which he turned down because of poor health. He was an ardent Zionist, and a strong supporter of the State of Israel. You're always long on rhetoric, a little short on fact. You might want to look into that -- unless you prefer to keep embarrassing yourself, that is.
56. To: No. 48
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (07.01.10)
I trust that you have disposed of your mobile phone. I certainly hope that you have refused to allow your children to be vaccinated against polio. Your wife should avoid lipstick at all costs. If you are sent for an MRI or CAT scan, you absolutely must decline. Since well over half of the chemotherapy protocols in use today were developed in Israel, try to avoid being diagnosed with cancer (or, if you are, make do with something less than state of the art chemotherapy). Of course, you will have to decline a pacemaker, should the need arise. All of the foregoing were invented or improved by ardent Zionists. Poor, poor pitiful you.
57. Iranian-Jew-in-TehranGeles,
Persian CAT   (07.01.10)
How many Iranian Jews can you name who have been jailed for "talking" to their relatives in Israel lately? Can you name one?
58. read #46 please
Judith ,   Haifa, Israel   (07.01.10)
59. To: No. 57
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (07.01.10)
It's a non-issue, dear kitty cat; you cannot reach country code 972 (Israel) dialing from Iran, so there is no talking. Moreover, I have it on reasonably good authority that you cannot send mail to Israel from Iran, either. But you are such a big fan of the Islamofascist Republic of Iran, I'm amazed you are still here in the United States! Why not vote with your feet, oh little clawless -- actually, I think I mean clueless -- one?
60. To Mr Green in Manchester You are a RIOT!
James ,   ISRAEL   (07.01.10)
Laugh...nearly split my sides! Very well composed.Wish Medinejad would have the translation and see how he'll react. Hilarious !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
