31. God's Nation will prevail
Godwin Mlay ,   Tanzania   (04.25.06)
It just a matter of time before Ahmadinejad and those against God's nation realize how wrong they have been to raise against Israel. You better change your wrong course now than wait for the rage of God !. For God's nation, do not be afraid, your salvation is nigh
32. appeasement
zvi ,   sydney, australia   (04.25.06)
how can you liken iraq to iran,there is no comparison.we didnt believe hussein when he said i have no weapons of mass destruction ....should we now not believe or believe the crazy iranian when he says all is for peaceful purposes and at the same time he recommends the 'dissolution' of israel. the world needs to wake up...either way you can be sure israel will not toleraye a nuclear iran with or without the usa
33. MAD
Joe Levi ,   Los Angeles. USA   (04.25.06)
We in the USA have enough nukes to wipe out the planet 10 times over. The Russians still possess over 50,000 nuclear warheads. France, Britain, China, Pakistan and India, all have thousands (combined) of missiles, planes and artillery shells, capable of low and high fusion explosions. So, while the US and Russia bask in the relative safety knowing their MAD policies have deterred each others/Chinese non-conventional attacks, Israel is expected to behave like "Good Christians". In other words, "Turn the other cheek". This is, similar to pre-WW2 thinking. Arab-Muslim oil, is more important than a bunch of "Stiff-necked Jews". We Jews are miniscule, while the Muslim world has over 1.4b and growing. How can 5.2m Hebrews compare to 300m Arabs in importance. Unfortunately, this is reality. Bottom line: Israel's threat of MAD, is the only answer and assurance of it's survival. As Israel goes, so goes Diaspora Jewry.

After www2 we started to look around for a an insurance policy, nobody was willing to take on such a high risk portfolio so thank goodness we had a couple of very sensible businessmen, Ben Gurion and Peres who had this idea of founding our own insurance company, it might not be the biggest one in world but it sure does keep us in business. You see we Jews are dispensible, if we go down, our descendents, if there are any, will not be able to claim for fire and theft or total loss, but our policy, with our company, not only covers this it ensures it will not be necessary. I hope our adversaries and those conniving for our demise understand this, if they do not then let me assure you they will find themselves deep in the cow pie, very deep.
35. Interesting article but...
David ,   London   (04.25.06)
So..why does Iran care about Israel? Iran has no territorial ambition like 30s Germany. Historically Iran and Israel have had good relations (take Cyrus for example). Iran has no desire for war after the conflict with Iraq and is not stupid regarding the capabilities of Israel's nuclear arsenal. But it does know that the world is scared, and is milking this fright for all it is worth so that it can gain in terms of trade etc. If we are scared enough, then we have no other option but give them something in return for abandoning nuclear technology.
36. Quit screwing around and threaten to destroy
(04.26.06)
Iran. The USA held off Russia over Cuba. Why should Israel not lay its cards on the table. Does anyone really believe any of us will miss the Iranians who only want to destroy infidels such as Jews, Americans, Russians, Chinese, and Europeans. Be my guest, bomb them to oblivion. They won't be missed by Americans, anymore than Americans would be missed when they nuked our country. It's about time someone told these jerks, that telling everyone, that you plan on wiping out the Jews, isn't a game, and will have severe repercussions.
37. Nr.20
joe   (04.26.06)
You write: The conflict is between the western world and radical Islam. Until you fully understand this, you can not realize the threat posed on the lives of free and democratic people like yourself. Now to DANIEL PIPES, an Arab-hater par excellence. a very interesting fact is he is a close friend to Fleming ROSE, the danish publisher of the insulting cartoons few month ago. Just google: >daniel pipes + fleming rose< and enjoy the entries! I love the internet !

40. # 37 joe DO YOUR HOMEWORK!
Ron ,   LA   (04.27.06)
Joe sez: "a very interesting fact is he is a close friend to Fleming ROSE, the danish publisher of the insulting cartoons few month ago. Just google: >daniel pipes + fleming rose< and enjoy the entries! " I love the internet ! " Ron sez: .. but then you need to have some ability to find a diamond in the see of crappy Arab propaganda. Continue to educate yourself about the wonders of internet... The difference here, my friend is simple. Some people here actually know what they are talking about. Mr. joe I support Israel and Zionism NOT because I am Jew, but because it's right thing to do. Please look for more " revelations on the internet and bring them to me. I am very happy to return the favors and put a mirror to your conspirator mind. The Cartoon Jihad and Me By Daniel Pipes FrontPageMagazine.com | February 21, 2006 Did you know that I had a hand in the Danish cartoons of Muhammad? No? Well, neither did I until I found this out in early February on a conspiracist website. To clear the record, I’ll start with the facts, then outline the conspiracy theory. What actually happened: Flemming Rose, cultural editor of Jyllands-Posten, a Danish newspaper, sent me an e-mail on September 29, 2004, introducing himself and requesting an in-person interview during his U.S. trip. I agreed and Rose came to my Philadelphia office on October 25, when he spent about half an hour asking me questions. His article on me, “Truslen fra islamismen” (or “The Threat of Islamism),” appeared on October 29. It is a standard journalistic piece in which Rose provided some biographical information about me and had me explain my views on radical Islam. (Both the Danish original and an English translation can be found on my website, www.DanielPipes.org.) After that meeting, I had no further contact with Rose For full article, joe… http://www.frontpagemag.com/Articles/ReadArticle.asp?ID=21384

42. More educational opportunities for joe # 37
Ron ,   LA   (04.27.06)
Since you are interested in conspiracy and scholarly works about Islam, I highly recommend his wonderful book: The Hidden Hand Middle East Fears of Conspiracy By Dr. Daniel Pipes http://www.danielpipes.org/books/hidden.php Also if you prefer internet, there is lots of info. In Goggle (which this hated Zio Russian Jew founded) Please check: Conspiracy Theories + UFO http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&q=Conspiracy+Theories+%2B+UFO&btnG=Search P.S. Please let me know about your progress…
43. Why do people answer Jeff???
DR ,   Florida, USA   (04.27.06)
Nothing we say or do will change people like Jeff from Down under. He is so delusional and anti-Israel, there is no hope for him. The only think that will wake him up is when he realizes first hand who we are dealing with. Ausralia has already stopped terror attacks in the past year, but until one of them gets through, Jeff will just ignore reality and blame everything on Israel. Too bad Jeff...
44. 43. for DR and everybody on talkback . I answer jeff ...
Ron ,   LA   (04.28.06)
WHY I RESPOND TO PEOPLE LIKE THAT ... it is NOT about jeff only. All kinds of people from SA to China visit here for info. Not many have recourses and desire to investigate thoroughly. This is the chance of ignorant and deceiver, propagandists like Ray Hanania to add their 2 cents. It is easy to say you are stupid and I don't answer you, however I don't believe in talkback abuse. Even the most ignorant remark, sometimes needs to be addressed in patient, consistent and responsible way. Person with good will, who is intelligent can see through all crap and realize who tells the truth. Just the way you respond tells a lot about you, DR. People like Hanania play on ignorance and people who are lazy to respond patiently and honorably. He will use intimidation, blaming, calling you hateful, bur realize, I can not control his tactics of disinformation and propaganda. I can control mine 100 percent. If one comes here for entertainment and gets lazy and impatient, this is what you get; entertainment and stupidity. I came here to learn, educate and feel what others contribute. Some people don't contribute anything. They just find satisfaction being here and call names like Hanania. They trash you and than tell everybody you are bigot. I was born in Russia, so I recognize propaganda and what stands behind “innocent" " peaceful statements. Hope I helped.
