31. #28 will try but instead Iran will hit Mecca/Medina
better observer ,   DC   (08.21.10)
That's how good their delivery system is and Israel's ultra secret Iron Dome Mark V will certainly help them in the diversion. This is not going to be the end. Since it starts hostilities Iranian regime will feel the Iron Fist first hand when the City of Qum where most Ayatollahs reside will become dust and vanish into thin air.
32. Iranian Bomb
B. Adania ,   Göteborg, Sweden   (08.21.10)
Soon, very soon, it will be to late to do anything about it. I fear for the continuation of the state of Israel: Netaniyahu and Barak seemingly not so...
33. Bye bye, au revoir, los sayonara Iran!
Lee ,   Manchester UK   (08.21.10)
when mad crackpots threaten the whole world ... then their end is nigh. Heinous actions have dire consequences. Good riddence!
34. to #27, "hakim from palestine", get your lies straight!
tom ,   toronto, canada   (08.22.10)
you say: "Iran NEVER called for the destruction of Israel", no they just wanted to "wipe israeli off the map", in their words. you say: "Israel HAS CALLED for the destruction of Iran". no, israel has called for the destruction of iran's illegal uranium enrichment facilities and nuclear weapons programme. that is not synonymous with "iran". you said: "If Israel has nukes, Iran has every right to them". rubbish. if a kaw0abiding citizen has properly licensed and registered guns, which they use legally and responsibly, that does not automatically that their violently insane neighbour, who repeatedly made death threats aginst him and his family, should be allowed to own an unregistered and illegal gun. you said: "Iran has allowed UN inspectors into their facilities". that isn't actually true. iaea inspectors have not been allowed to inspect the uranium enrichment facilities (irna the official iranian news agency, quoting ahmadinejad, has officially reported that there is more than one). and lastly: "We fought two wars in Iraq and A'stan and it cost us a trillion dollars...Hakim , Palestine". which wars did YOU fight, "hakim"? or do you just copy and paste this bushwah from some prepared script? so which is it, are you american or in "palestine" (that fiction of fictions)? please try to keep your fake identities straight and froth from just one side of your mouth at a time.
35. :: Zionist forever - #12
Matty Groves ,   Fairport   (08.22.10)
Oh no-no-no-no-no nooo! Iran is no threat to the US and the US is not going to attack Iran for Israel. If you want to stop Iran from developing its peaceful civilian nuclear programme then send *Israeli* planes - it is time to put up or shut the hell up. If Israel says Iran is problem then let Israel do something about.
36. #35 some basic politics you need to learn
Omri ,   Israel   (08.22.10)
USA is the world's leading power and with that title comes a responsibility to work outside America. Israel, saudi arabia, jordan, egypt and many more are part of USA's power in the middle east and has self interests to see them survive. You think all the world is like USA and the poor and warmongering places in the world have brought it opon themselves? A fool you are USA doesnt work for charity but works for western power in the world and its main modern enemy just happens to be Iran. Now tell me why do you acuse Israel of wanting a strike on Iran and not any other middle eastern country such as Saudi Arabia? Because you are a sworn anti-zionist and logic comes second to you, first is always blame Israel.
37. israeli book of answers
muhannad ,   jerusalem/palestine   (08.22.10)
well if killing a couple of million people is the solution in the israeli book of answers, then once again im telling you israel is a terrorist state that should be resolved and the israeli people and jews should live all around the world in different countries, because as i and other at least 5 billion people on earth sees israel as a threat to world peace which the USA calls for. killiing people has never been the answer for any problem, same as u declare that civilians of israel should not be threatened or dangered the people of iran and palestine should not be threatened or dangered, politics is a dirty game that untill now the west and israel are wining, now ask your self a question if one day we palestinans have the power do you want us to commit massacres against you israelis?! im sure u dont want that and im sure that we WONT do that just because of one simple reason we HAVEN'T forgotten about humanity. wake up and go light a candle for gaza and start changing the world into a better peacefull place for us and for our children.
38. #26 Hey Superman, why don't you come over here and show us
all how it's done? ,   Yep,didn't think so.   (08.22.10)
39. #27 'We fought 2 wars'....Hmm,I don't recall ANY palestinian
army when I was ,   there.I rest MY case   (08.22.10)
40. Does this mean world is accepting Islam fanatics take over?
Asher ,   NY USA   (08.22.10)
Maybe it's much easier to let Tehran gets what is looking for and keep Israel's hands off the attack and the world continue to make deals with Iran behind the scenes and if Israel get's into danger so what and that's will be their problem as long as Iran pays off for the West. And what should Israel do? Wait till it gets TOO late or forgets about the Boss and go for her Life? Should Israel be a GOOD Boy and listen and do not oppose and be quite and let Iran choke him and Bully him till they get the Bomb and then be wipe off from the map and in the history books they mention there used to be a country in ME named Israel but his friends mistakes caused them to perish? World do you really think Israel will go with these plans and madness of yours? Has Israel forgot Holocaust? The World should know what can be much more destructive than Iran's plans is when Israel really feels the threat .
41. #11, time for you & everyone else here to wake up...
Jake ,   USA   (08.22.10)
The West is aiding Iran. They can wipe them out in 1 week, yet they do nothing to actually stop their genocidal ambitions. NOTHING.
42. IRAN THREATENS WORLD, AND SOME T.B.'S ONLY ATTACK ISRAEL

THEY WILL ATTACK AND CRITICISE ISRAEL EVEN UNTILL THE IRAN NUCLEAR MISSILES FLIES OVER TO THEM.
43. Israel vs Iran nuke threat
Brod ,   USA   (08.22.10)
Iran has never repented for threatening to wipe off Israel. Instead it even denies the Holocaust. With its missiles, nuke-in-the-making and its tentacles, the fanatical Islamist-Jihadist regime of Iran thinks it is invincible. Israel has only two options: to continue existing as a nation or be incinerated in a nuke Holocaust from the dark forces that are hellbent on its destruction. There are many latent forces especially the AntiSemite world that tries to fool Israel not to defend itself. To live, Israel must not be fooled, must not trust others, and must not allow its only effective defense of deterrence and preemption from eroding. Israel should only trust the GOD of Israel who gave and restored the Land of Israel to the Nation of Israel. Leading the dark forces is Lucifer. And they have assaulted and ravaged the Land of Israel since ancient time. But GOD'S Covenant to Israel-of redeeming Israel and restoring Israel back in their Ancient Land of Israel is loud and clear as stated in Jeremiah 31:1-17, Ezekiel 36:24-38, Ezekiel 37:21-28, Ezekiel 39:27-29, and Amos 9:14-15. No mortals not even Hillary, Obama, Blair, Mitchell, their associates, the AntiSemite and Islamist-Jihadist world should dare tamper GOD'S Covenant to Israel.
44. matty groves you are an ignorant
dovdevan ,   ashdod,israel   (08.22.10)
you think that Iran is not threatening the US ? in which world do you live ? let me give you some geopolitics fact ! US is protecting the arabic peninsula where most of the oil ressources are by having military bases their .Iran by developping a nuclear bomb will pose a threat to those countries . the sunni countries are so afraid of Iran that they are calling for the aid of Israel to destroy the iranian nuclear program . Iran is a shia country that is seeking expansion in irak ,lebanon,syria and all the arabic countries . in fact until 9/11 you could feel safe in your own territory right now forget about it .Iran is a threat to US interest in the region and soon it could be a threat to the world not only to israel . it's in US interest to deal with it . US won't do it for us but for herself because all US is doing is in only in US interest when you will understand this you will understand geopolitic !
45. Sarah, you seem to be acquiring enemies in Europe
Cameron ,   USA   (08.22.10)
46. #35 Matty with head in sand
Cynthia ,   USA   (08.22.10)
Iran is a global threat. Ahmadinejad threatened to send suicide bombers and missiles to Israel, Europe and the US. The US is the "Big Satan" and Iran's primary target. "Death to America" does not mean I Love You in Farsi. Israel is a diversion and a target because of her affiliation with the US and military strength. Do you really think Iran would invest billions of dollars into a nuclear program for peaceful purposes when their economy has tanked? Do you think Ahmadinejad holds a gun to the head of his people for peaceful purposes?
47. # 34 Twan from Toronto
Hakim ,   Palestine   (08.22.10)
Prepare for the fact the Iran will have the bomb Its just a matter of time and you can copy paste that. And for your info born and raised in America but Palestinian for life and thats coming from both sides of my mouth...
48. #28 observer
Albrecht Klein ,   Germany   (08.22.10)
"so i think israel should be wise and start withdrawing from 1967 borders even before the negotiations with the Palestinians start." ----- And what makes you think, withdrawing to the (indefensible) 1967 borders will make Iran abandon his with to erase Israel (and other states)? The Iranians do not give a damn about the so called Palestinians.
49. Iran's name
Bubby ,   Ohio, USA   (08.22.10)
In 1935, the shah of Iran, the father of the man deposed in 1979, was a Nazi sympathizer. He hated the Jews. So he decided to show his true stripes by renaming his country Iran, which literally means "land of the Aryans." This is a reflection of the Iranian mullahs' Nazi sympathies. This is a way for them to show the entire Islamic world that they still believe in Hitler's "final solution." - excerpt from an article by Joseph Farah
50. Isn't this a hostage-taker's tactic ?
Bubby ,   USA   (08.22.10)
"Ahmadinejad vows global response if Iran attacked" This is the kind of level-headed person we all want wielding Nukes? If Israel has had them as long as everyone claims then they have shown tremendous restraint. This guy would nuke you if you cut him off in traffic. Thanks a lot "Russia"! You're a real friend... *cough*
51. #12 you seem to have missed the point
Sean ,   Montreal, Quebec   (08.22.10)
Israel's weakness is, and always has been, the diaspora. The Israeli government needs to adapt its foreign policy accordingly. I am not sure of the death toll attributable to the IDF in the past four years, but it is sizable. This ceaseless propaganda regarding Iran to keep the world's attention away from Israeli carnage has been impressive. It also serves to keep the domestic audience in a constant state of fear and willing participants to abdicating to the merchants of war. Now that the time has arrived, Iran is warning you that your actions will have consequences and they are global in nature. America has succeeded in turning Afghanistan and Iraq into living hell holes in constant states of civil unrest. Israel has equally succeeded in doing the same to Palestine. Is it really your wish that they spread this any further?
52. Hakim, Palestine
CanGyrene ,   Cape Breton, Canada   (08.22.10)
Your remarks about being "Palestinian for Life" and born and raised in the USA provides a lot of rationale for wondering JUST WHOSE SIDE YOU ARE ON.
