1. Iran Is Correct About One Thing
emanon ,   USA   (08.15.12)
If Israel launches an attack, it won't be a "stupid" attack. I'm sure a lot of thought and preparation will have gone into it. And no, I'm not being sarcastic.
2. again & again ?
Amos J   (08.15.12)
Iran threatens again and again. So what do Obama, Ashton, Meir Dagan and their peacenik & liberal friends say now ? Wait till the mushroom clouds bloom over Tel Aviv and Israel, and still keep yapping "all options are still on the table".
3. American Wimps stand down
(08.15.12)
Americans are wimps. They would have lost WWII if the Red Army had not defeated the majority of the Whermacht for them. Also some Jews invented the A-bomb for them to drop on Japan. Fail in Vietnam, Iraq & Afghanistan. Total bunch of wussies & wimps lead by a mega-wussie. American Wimps stand down and let the Men take care of it.
4. Lebanese MP says Iran to destroy Israel
(08.15.12)
Lebanese MP says Iran to destroy Israel. MP Walid Sakariya told Lebanese television this week that the nuclear weapon Iran is developing is intended to annihilate Israel. He told the interviewer on al-Manar TV Tuesday that once Iran acquires a nuclear weapon it would serve Syrian as well as Iranian interests, namely the eradication of the Jewish state.

6. Iran's apologists have been in denial since Ahmadinejad
PETER SM ,   MELBOURNE AUSTRALIA   (08.15.12)
Announced their intentions years ago. Israel has every right to counter the existential threat by the Islamifascist imperialists
7. Not just words.
Jusanz77 ,   Vzla.   (08.15.12)
And there are still fools in Israel (Ego Oz) who believe that all anti-Israel rhetoric just words, not a plan cold, calculated. Clearly indicates, that the mullahs at the first opportunity they have, have no scruple to fulfill his words.
8. Israel must be destroyed, but Obama is silent..., and so are
Jehudah Ben-Israel ,   Qatzrin, Israel   (08.15.12)
the Jews who support him... Haven't we learned anything from our own Jewish recent history, including to believe to people when they express their hopes and intents... Why support Obama who is ready to sit on his hands and see Israel's demise by others....??!!
9. If Israel launches an attack on Iran..
Ivan ,   South Africa   (08.15.12)

10. Iranian General~Destroy Israel?
Nili ,   Jerusalem   (08.15.12)
Well, that might be the only way they could continue to spread their lies about having rights to our land! Some people are so stupid it defies belief!
11. "forget about our diffĂ©rences"
basri ,   paris   (08.15.12)

Rag head ,   Toronto, Canada   (08.15.12)
Well your famed Russians did not do very well against those dress wearing rag heads in Afghanistan did they.
13. Dont Attack ! Elections, Gas & Euro most important !!
Amos J   (08.15.12)
Americans & Europeans want Israel to humbly submit themselves to being chemicalized, nuked & have their throats cut so that Obama can win his elections, price of gas does not rise and the Euro does not crash.
14. Israel
Samuel ,   Kenya   (08.15.12)
How goodly are thy tents, O Jacob, and thy tabernacles, O Israel! -- he shall eat up the nations of his enemies, and shall break their bones, and pierce them through with his arrows. He couched, He lay down as a lion, and as a great lion: who shall stir him up? Blessed is he that blesseth thee, and cursed is he that curseth thee. He hath not beheld iniquity in Jacob, neither hath he seen perveseness in Israel: the Lord his God is with him, and the shout of a king is among them. Behold I have refined thee, but not with silver; I have chosen the in the furnace of affliction.
15. Iran
none ,   the United States   (08.15.12)
I find this extremely pathetic, that Iran dare bring a Lawsuit against Israel and expects anything, when the victims of 911 has gotten nothing from Iran's cruelty. I also find it pathetic that Iran says Israel is the illegitimate Zionist regime, when in fact the Islamic Republic of Iran is Illegitimate. Iran, your days are numbered.
16. hitler and iran
milson   (08.15.12)
if adolphe hitler was the leader of the illegal corrupt entity of kameinei, lariajani and sabjourian ahamadinejad,and he was making threats to wipe out and exterminate israel and arm nazi hezbollahs of lebanon with countless types of rockets, all of haaretz writers, oz, haber,peres, merridor,olmert, livni, dagan, shahak lipkin who was no great chief of staff, would say israel has time and don't worry so much as he is mostly bluster and let obama threaten attack against iran. And bibi should stop with the shmear and grease and stop bloody well grovelling. rush extra iron dome batteries, stoppile materiel including extra planes NOW as well as oil,get portable shelters and home front gas masks ready N0W. Stop grovelling as it only encourages illegal corrupt ayatollah entity of iran. And in the hit on iran, cut off the bloody head.
17. Is any additional proof necessary?
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (08.15.12)
The international community keeps insisting that Israel must give sanctions more time. Well, bugger that! It's not the United States or the U.K. or France or Germany that are in the cross-hairs. It's Israel. Israel needs to act now. To hell with the upcoming American presidential election. If anything, Jewish voters in the United States will benefit from seeing how the United States administration will react. There is absolutely no reason for Israel to continue to ignore existential threats out of Teheran.
18. let them deal with their 'palestinians'
gingimax ,   istanbul turkey   (08.15.12)
balochi iranians are being oppressed. who will give them a state?
19. Iran's folly is Jordan's, Syria's, Saudi Arabia's demise.
David ,   Hartford USA   (08.15.12)
If the midget in Tehran sends a nuclear bomb to Israel, sure, lots of Israelis will die. But even MORE Muslims will die gruesome, painful, agonizingly slow deaths due to radiation poisoning that will fall out of the sky on their countries. They have no (and there is no) protection from such floating death. Their water, their crops, the very surface of everything they touch will be contaminated for decades to come. Of course, Israel's retaliation will cause such destruction to Iran's major cities, that the country will functionally cease to exist. I think these facts are proof enough that Amedinejad and his generals are certifiably insane and should be terminated at all costs. Has the world considered what happens when the Arab oil fields are contaminated and production slows to a halt? Will the world just watch? The UN must go into Iran and arrest Amedinejad, nothing less will do. And he must never be given the ability to speak at the UN again. Never. The Saudi King should well consider the end of his kingdom if Iran does what it says it will do. If the King was a true leader, he would have the Iranians arrested and thrown in prison. Maybe more sane minds would take over Iran's leadership. But the King is weak and will watch his country be destroyed as an after-effect. After the attack, when the fires have died down and the bulk of the radiation deaths have happened, the US and Britain will again step in and redraw the mideast. Maybe then Israel will get all the land that was mandated for it. Ironic, isn't it? Muslims try to wipe Israel off the earth and all they get for it are hundreds of thousands of Muslims casualties and the redrawing (and shrinking) of their national boundaries! Since the world powers have for years considered Jerusalem an 'international city,' not part of Israel, we should consider the Saudi oil fields in the same manner: too valuable to be left to one country to control.
20. Dressed to kill?
Bad Assed Jew ,   United States   (08.15.12)
Who's the 'wardrobe' person who dresses these boys? They look like their going to the gay bath house. "clothes make the man', a little hanky panky under the blanky? I hope Israel does unto Iran first what Iran intends to do to Israel, only 1000x's the force.
21. OH, YEA?
POSTROAD ,   USA   (08.15.12)
TELL ME, BIG MOUTH: WOULD WWII HAVE BEEN WON WITHOUT THE US? THE JEWS WHO HELPED WITH A BOMB DID IT IN THE US NOW: WHAT War did you serve in? now who is what?big mouth
22. WILL YOU GO TOMOIRROW TO BOMB IRAN?
postroad ,   USA   (08.15.12)
SURE. SU[P[ORT MITT: HE IS TALK AND SAYHS NOTHING. DO YOU BELIEVE HE WOULD DO AS YOU WANT ASAP? WRONG, as usual.
23. Bibi and most Israelis misread America
Avramele   (08.15.12)
Bibi and his Pravda like Israel Hayom has created an Israeli ideological bubble that misreads the American mindset. Americans do not want another military confrontation, do not want to see an early release of Pollard and prefer sanctions to bombs. Yes the Republican congress cheered Bibi as they would Jesus. However that same congress voted for the Ryan budget and now member by member are running from it like the plague. Obama is Israel's only game and he is surrounded by Jews including an orthodox chief of staff. At a moment of decision he has the guts and brains to make a tough move ( as he did with the Bin Laden take out). Romney btw like Bibi caves to political expediency every time he is faced with a tough decision.
24. Iran says...
Eugene Hamptons ,   LA, California, USA   (08.15.12)
Iran has become a joke. Lots of big mouths making big threats... knowing they do not have the capability to stand up the Israel OR the US for even a single day. Iran and it's leaders are delusional. Just big mouths talking, they don't have the guts to do anything but threaten. They know they will be slapped into reality.
25. It is Elam (Western Iran) that will be destroyed, the Holy
Rivkah   (08.15.12)
Scriptures prophesies. The nuclear waste will blow with the wind to all of Iran and make the nation uninhabitable. The people will have to migrate to other nations, all the nations of the Earth, Scriptures tells us. That is how terrible it will be. Better to let the Creator of the Universe, Yahweh-Yeshua resolve this and He can since he can control the minds of rulers. If Israel would stop flaunting sodomy and allowing women with wanton eyes to go unchecked and if Israel would stop cheating the poor and turn back to the Yahweh of Scriptures and obey the everlasting commandments and change the symbol of the nation from a six pointed star on the flag to a menora, perhaps the Lord would protect Israel and also protect Iran and the other nations from World War III and the death of a third of the people on Earth from that with another third dying from starvation and wild beasts after that.
26. Islamist-Jihadism on the rise
Brod ,   USA   (08.15.12)
They attacked America on 9/11. Wahhabhism and Ayatollahism are one and the same. They worship the same Luciferian god that is bloodthirsty for Jewish and Christian blood. The closeted Islamist bowed to the Wahhabhist-Saudi King despite the fact that 19 Saudi Islamist-Jihadists attacked America on 9/11 and slaugthered 3000 Americans in cold blood. He led the ascendancy of Islamist-Jihadism-Muslim Brotherhood in the Middle East that is hellbent on the destruction of Israel. Hitlerism is now on the rise that is threatening the annihilation of Israel. It is time Israel acts to defend itself and lead the Free World in countering the rise of the dark forces that threatens freedom and democracy. It is time America sends him packing in November. Talk about a Trojan Horse- a Plant. America is facing it right now. It is time patriotic Americans wake up and support Romney/Ryan to win against the dark forces.
27. Saudi King
RB Rushing ,   Texas   (08.15.12)
The Saudi King must have be a fan of the Godfather. Keep your friends close, your enemies closer"
28. The saudis try to spruce up their image in the muslim world
Neo ,   EU   (08.15.12)
right before the war is coming up, to not look like israeli-american supporter to their people..
29. Talk from fears
Muhamad Ben Zona ,   Teheran   (08.15.12)
It is time to send the Iranian president back to the place he came from - Hell. And better to do it as soon as can cause the air he breath is too expensive.
30. Next Friday
Joe ,   France   (08.15.12)
