1. The US is going too far.
Sarah B. ,   U.S.A./Israel   (09.16.12)
The US hostility against Israel has reached unprecedent levels. Let me clear here: you mess with Israel, you run the risk of being just one pariah state more. Just look all those that dared to attack Israel, even the big fishes. We are watching closely the US attitutes towards Israel. The lack of respect with our concerns is outrageous. We are on the limit of our patiente here in Israel. Not behaving properly may result in disastrous consequences for the US History.
2. Americans want a red line? How about 9/11 ?
barbara ,   Haifa Israel   (09.16.12)
What more do Americans need for a red line? When Pearl Harbor was attacked by Japanese - that was red line. When 9/11 occurred, that was also red line. BUT America eventually wiped out only part of the red line - not all of it.
3. US and Iran
Proud Israeli   (09.16.12)
It is written in the "Holy Books" that all nations will go aganist Israel. That includes the United States. We stand alone with Hashem.
4. Soiunds like Bibi is getting everyone mentally prepared
Noodles ,   Coney Island   (09.16.12)
But who cares, Iran will never attack US interests in the Gulf or anywhere else....(cough,cough)
5. no more fanatics with nuclear weapons on our planet
Kamel El-Darwish ,   Turku, Finland   (09.16.12)
In response to the article entitled "PM (Netanyahu): You want fanatics with nuclear weapons?", there is no doubt our planet does not need any MORE fanatics with nuclear weapons!
6. #1 Too many spelling mistakes to be the real Sarah B
Logic ,   Israel   (09.16.12)
7. Of fanatics, whose women thrown in the back of the bus?
Miron ,   USA   (09.16.12)
Thrown out of their seats in planes? Shoveled in the kitchen when "zi men" have important business? Forbidden from singing? Raped in Army? Helped to the other side of sidewalk? Forbidden to come even near beach where uhhh.... belllllievers have their bones warmed up. Called racists when they dare to accuse Arab man of rape in the most democratic press organ in the world? What the heck this piece of work doing in Israeli PM seat? Preparing to release next 1000 murderers? Postponing discussion on Armenian Genocide for another 100 years? Sure, the guy is too busy for low priority condiderations. What the heck Israel has to do with Armenian Genocide??? We didn't do it!
8. Do we want fanatics....
Tony Singh ,   Delhi   (09.16.12)
Do we want fanatics to have nuclear weapons? The answer is NO. Now when is Israel giving them up?
9. The post at No. 1 is not mine.
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (09.16.12)
10. brothers we are the red line for the world
miriam ,   israel   (09.16.12)
israel being attackt will serve as a notice for the world.the rest is history..
11. The post at Number 9 is not mine
Sarah B ,   Tel Aviv/London   (09.16.12)
12. Is Bibi the new Churchill ? I hope so !
Frederic   (09.16.12)
13. The post in 11 is not mine.
Sarah B. ,   U.S.A / Israel   (09.16.12)
14. i am much more concerned with the irrational Bibi
Abe ,   AZ   (09.16.12)
than Iran. Iran might hate Israel but have shown no signs of irrationality while bib sanity is questionable.
15. #8 tony - When did you say India will give up its nuclear we
solomon ,   bklyn   (09.16.12)
16. No. 8, should India give up nukes against fanatic Pakistan?
Marco ,   Spain   (09.16.12)
17. If they're fanatics, they won't care about a "red line"
esse ,   --   (09.16.12)
Now will they? Israel is simply trying to get the US to do its dirty work for it. And the US has not allowed itself to be suckered into it. Now Israelis are getting upset. Too bad Israel isn't capable of taking on Iran on its own or it wouldn't be in this position.
18. #8
Deepak ,   Ahmednagar, India   (09.16.12)
Israel is not a fanatic nation. Israel has contributed more to science, technology, music, art & literature than all nations in the middle east put together. It's a nation of intellectuals & thinkers. It's not a nation of fanatics.
19. Bibi. The only politician talking logic
Ed ,   Switzerland   (09.16.12)
Bibi. The only politician talking logic
20. no fear
bill ,   canada   (09.16.12)
we have lived with israeli fanantics armed with nukes; no big deal; israel can learn to live with any nation; however armed
21. IDF Chief: Iran not building nukes!
David McElroy ,   Alamogordo, NM USA   (09.16.12)
I just read today that the Israeli Defense Force chief said Iran was NOT building any nuclear weapons. The UN and US intelligence reports are the same. Netanyahu should stop warmongering. Defend Israel, yes. Kill the world? No, Netanyahu!
22. Bibi is now the fanatic with the bomb
Steven Zeluck ,   San Francisco   (09.16.12)
Yes, the Mullahs are bad, wicked, dangerous and contemptible. But they are clearly in a defensive posture, while Netanyahu is asking Israelis to live in underground bunkers while he attacks a country in a war he cannot win and will get the country partially if not completely destroyed. Mr. 10 Month Jewish Only Construction Freeze is again showing his contempt for the rights, safety and security of his own people. But he's not too busy to be sending money to the Palestinians for their intransigence. What is loyalty to this man and who is he loyal to exactly?
23. Destroy Iran's nukes NOW! What are we waiting for?
Chaim ,   Israel   (09.16.12)
It is clear to every sane person that Israel must destroy Iran's nukes. Anything is justified to prevent another holocaust. What are we waiting for?
24. Confused
Ron ,   Syracuse, USA   (09.16.12)
Will the Real Sarah B. please stand up! Ha! Ha! 2 Sarah B's 2 different countries Iran has made no qualms about using nuclear weapons on Israel and the USA when they finally aquire them and this has been stated publicly. How can anyone be so stupid to think this will give the Middle East stability. Quite the contrary it will destabilize the Middle East. Someone that says it will stabilize the area really is blind and foolish. As far as Israel goes God will stand up and fight for Her very soon. Ezekial 38 looms on the horizon. God Bless The Jews and Israel!
25. #8 tony
solomon ,   bklyn   (09.16.12)
Israel will give them up when the fanatics (the real ones) stop villifying Israel and threatening its destruction. If you would bother to read the news you wouldn't have asked your question.
26. Mutual Nuclear Deterrence
iam he ,   New Haven, USA   (09.16.12)
No nation wants or needs nuclear weapons except to deter sociopathic belligerent governments from attacking.
27. Stupid US strategy
E1   (09.16.12)
Israel doesn't want to live under nuclear threat of Iran- FULL STOP! Is so difficult to understand?! US according to H Clinton took action to "liberate Libya and save Bengazi". The US press should ask why and why not taking action to liberate Iran and save Teheran?!
28. The post at No. 11 is mine...
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (09.16.12)
29. The post at No. 13 is not mine...
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (09.16.12)
30. Imitation is the highest form of flattery
Ben Ze'ev ,   Panama Coty Panama   (09.16.12)
EXACTLY what I was thinking.
