31. #28 Reverse engineered?
Cynthia ,   USA   (12.04.11)
You mean blow up in their face? We've seen a lot of that lately in Iran. A photo with proof (not photoshopped) would be a refreshing change from the usual regime propaganda used to stir up the people.
32. 21# Iran isn't occupying...controlling...
Steven Wilson ,   Anchorage, Alaska   (12.04.11)
or contributing to terrorism in Lebanon....Syria....the West Bank....Gaza......and anyhwere else they can spread their islamic hatred of peoples, who don't run around with an Allah Complex????? Yeah...Iran is innocent???? Give us all a break with your deceptions of Iran's true nature.
33. 13# That's because your half is a bunch of religious nuts.
Steven Wilson ,   Anchorage, Alaska   (12.04.11)
You'd throw your sister or wife out a window without a whim of regret. Since you consider anyone who doesn't cow tow to your religion a khaffer no better than a slaughtered cow......why should we like, or accept, your little racist religion of hate.
34. Out out brief dictatorship
Henry from New York ,   USA   (12.04.11)
You're but a shadow of a country; a poor player that struts and frets his hour upon the World's stage and then is heard no more. 'Tis a tale told by an idiot (guess who!) full of sound and fury signifying nothing. -- I think my adaptation of a MacBeth soliloquy just about sums up Iran.

J.Gad ,   Israel   (12.04.11)
...Israel must add it to the shopping list
36. 28#...you are absolutely right.
(12.04.11)
When that cruise missile drops on it and blows up the plane....... It will have been reverse engineered.
37. 22# Are you the guy hiding in the closet.....
Steven Wilson ,   Anchorage, Alaska   (12.04.11)

John ,   Hamilton, ON   (12.04.11)
You had me there. I thought you were talking about Israel. It was so right on.
39. #14 - Just because an opinion's popular...
Henry from New York ,   USA   (12.04.11)
doesn't mean that it is in any way right.
40. :)) to 28
Erik ,   Italy   (12.04.11)
Yes of course,you will copy the original so well, that when the operator will try to fly it toward west, it will go to east...just like the US operator in Afganisthan. Don't forget to copy also the "losing contact device" it's close to the radio. Best wishes, and many congratulation for your reverse engineered north korean/pakistan self exploding balistic missiles.
41. Welcome Steven
sipahi ,   Istanbul   (12.05.11)
Welcome... But in your shoes, I would wait until my brain gets out of the "frozen" state...

Eaglebeak ,   Left Coast, USA   (12.04.11)
Spoken like a true left coast lib. If you meet any Gays in Iran remind them they are not being oppressed as they are hanging by their necks. You are such a twit.
43. reza shah # 28
Eaglebeak ,   Left Coast, USA   (12.04.11)
But will it have that impressive Iranian toy monkey on board? If you guys are so good why do you have to use children to clear mine fields? Iran is all show and no go. Losers!
44. #38
Henry from New York ,   USA   (12.04.11)
Well, the solution to that is less anti-Israel propaganda and more facts, my good sir. =)
45. #40 go east go west divert attention thats
reza shah ,   tehran   (12.04.11)

Some vision you have there, jb...Only in America, ha? Where else can you praise your countries enemies and get away for it...Do you think in Iran? Why don't go there..Achmi reall needs more scumbags like you...
49. Another regime to be toppled into the sand?
Cameron ,   USA   (12.04.11)
Is this collection of wankers going to ultimately force our hand? Yet more ragheads to chase down & liquidate? A burdensome hobby this regime changing is.
50. #29 sjoerd
solomon ,   bklyn   (12.04.11)
Why do you continue to insist relying on the UN, which has been controlled by dictators for years and has proven itself almost useless in any issue that comes before it? That says a lot about the seriousness of your posts.
51. #38 john
solomon ,   bklyn   (12.04.11)
And another poster has just joined the world of the willfully blind. Congratulations.
52. To No:20
sipahi ,   Istanbul   (12.05.11)
Mr David, I'm not a jihadist, or Islamist. I am a secular Turk, one that sees Ataturk as his ideal leader. But, one does not need to be radical Islamist to see what US has done in Iraq, in Afghanistan. I do not hate Jews, either. I appreciate them because that they managed to found a state, defend it and made her a regional power (with the of the US) whereas Arabs remained in disorder. However, that does not make Jews/Israel that they can take any steps they want. Most people commenting here are completely seems to having lost contact with the reality. Regards
53. To No.27
sipahi ,   Istanbul   (12.05.11)
Yes, Turks/Arabs/Persians will get out of Kurdistan.... when the US gives back North America to the native Indians.
54. Iran
kam ,   Tehran, Iran   (12.05.11)
Your most advanced surveillance drone barely gets near Iran border and it's shut down!? This is going to be Great. Can't wait till the real action begins.
55. Iran
Kam ,   Tehran, Iran   (12.05.11)
For too long you people have overestimated yourselves in all aspects the human condition. You're about to be smacked down your high horse.
56. #18 ,do not stick yourself too much to civilization
Mirkava Hunter ,   Lebanon   (12.05.11)
read further to whom you belong : The worst ever inhuman theories that emerged in human history - are not confined to a few setters isolated from the rest of the Israeli society. The Haredim (Jewish Taliban) ideas about women separation from men are adopted by very large segments of the Jewish settlers in the occupied Palestinian West Bank, and large groups of religious Zionists as well as the ultra-Orthodox Jews, . The senior rabbis, who publicly support The King's Torah and defend what is mentioned in it, are not marginal at all. They are known for being belonging to the religious mainstream of Israel, both religious ultra-Orthodox (Haridim) and national-Zionist wings. In addition, thousands graduate from the Jewish religious schools (yeshivas) in the Israeli settlements and inside Israel after they have learnt hatred, resentment, and anti-human values, such as the hostile, attitudes toward the Palestinians calling for their expulsion and killing. These values are also based on the teachings mentioned in The King's Torah that advocate extermination of the Palestinians. The number of students is growing year after year as are the numbers in the Israeli army."
57. 54# You know....I was standing by an F-22 Raptor at
Steven Wilson ,   Anchrage, Alaska   (12.05.11)
Elmendorf AFB last week. Right next to the plane. They haven't even been used in combat yet. They can take on 4 aircraft "EACH" in a dogfight and have no problem winning. I'd be careful about what you wish for. You won't have an Air Force......any electrical operations....Cell phone service....Oil access as well as gasoline for you vehicles. You will be pushing a donkey cart around by hand because your donkey....... will have been blown up in an American Sortee. Get used to the cruise missiles arriving without an invitation as well. Persians are the biggest hineys in the Middle East. Everyone despises your culture.
58. What's the difference?
Robert ,   Australia   (12.05.11)
Both US and Israeli posters here who attempt to ridicule Iran don't realize that they ridicule themselves. If there is any "Chest beating" it is rife among the US and Israeli posters. Hardly a day goes by when Israeli and US posters beat their chests. It bears a striking similarity to what they claim Iran is doing.
59. #45 Iranian UAV?
Cynthia ,   USA   (12.05.11)
Last year Iran shot down three of their own UAVs down near the Bushehr plant. The right hand didn't know what the left hand was doing.
60. #28 is proud of iran's inability to invent anything.
what demon dose ,   he live under?   (12.05.11)
