1. Ellen Prescott , thank you for being brave
a palestinian   (05.25.06)

3. about time

right, so even during a retraction, the sub-line needed to register, in BOLD: Iran is still capable of heinousness. The point is, Steven Harper is quoted as reacting to the original BOGUS (and likely politically spun) report. Not the actuality. Therefore, shut up Ynet, this article is moot (unless the point is to drive home the "booga-booga"). I'm so fed up of what people could POTENTIALLY do to me. It seems clear... Fear = economy.
4. Nationalist Post
wanda ,   montreal   (05.25.06)
no surprise, israel asper, for years before he died, used this paper as a mouthpiece for zionism. from full-page editorials to censureship, he was pro-israel (even compared to AP standards). to me, that doesn't uphold and commit to the standards the paper, as "national", touts. conservatism, to me, means you've been paid not to talk. here, in this apologetic article, your eye is supposed to be drawn to the words: nazi, iran, nuclear, yellow badge, holocaust. pure sensationalist overhaul of a pathetic (and telling) story.
5. Dreamin is enught to publish
Saba   (05.25.06)
, Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper said Iran "is very capable of this kind of action."
7. a lot of people have to apologize.
john ,   london   (05.25.06)
Do you remember the screams of our zealots on ynet? moving, tough, passionate... and silly. We wait for their apologies. Maybe, it will be a lesson for the future. I doubt... As for the loony who is repeating that the palestinians don't exist, i.e that the real world doesn't exist, an piece of advice : go to Ramallah and tell them!
8. First Iranian sources say that this is the case
Joy Springreen   (05.25.06)
then they say it isnt then they say it is... meanwhile they also say that Judaism is a victimhood... funny that, coming from shiites, a sect of islam that is all about victimhood and they have to the insult and hypocrisy to put the Bahai down ruthlessly, a reormist religious sect of shia. Iran is playing games with everyone and any palestinians would do very well to ignore them. think Israel, think Lebanon, forget Iran.
9. To #1-?????????????????

See article on http://www.benadorassociates.com/ from the writer Amir Taheri A COLOUR CODE FOR IRAN'S 'INFIDELS' and PRESS RELEASE: AMIR TAHERI ADDRESSES QUERIES ABOUT DRESS CODE STORY
11. Hello? Anyone home?
Jeremiah ,   USA   (05.25.06)
Where are all the right wingers who were all up in arms over this neo-con piece of agitprop? Amir Taheri is in tight with PNAC and the neo-con media that are beating the drums for war against Iran, just as they did with Iraq.
